Zhou Zheng hasn't left the house for several days. He did not attend Tian Jing's banquet on 23 o when he was studying in 88 years old.
At first, he fell ill, felt unwell and could not go out. Later, he felt embarrassed and didn't want to go out.
Now everyone in Xianyang City knows that Mr. Zhou bought a big house and then a small house, bought a small house and then built a big house. After tossing and tossing, the vast wealth turned into a pitted ruins.
Fortunately, in the past few days, an even more embarrassing person, Tian Jing, appeared in Xianyang City.
This man didn't know whether to live or die, and insisted on banqueting the immortals. As a result, he was slapped twice in front of the civil and military officials of the court. What a disgrace.
Now that all the discussion in Xianyang City is focused on Tian Jing, Zhou Zheng feels that he can take a breather.
However, his good mood did not last long when the servant came over and said, "Master, we have a visitor."
Zhou Zheng asked "Who is it?"
The servant said, "It's Tian Jing. He said he wanted to make friends with the master."
When Zhou Zheng heard this, he immediately became angry, "He is a shameful person who wants to befriend me. He is worthy of being befriended by me and beaten out by me."
The servant was stunned for a moment and said cautiously, "If I type it out, do I need to return his gift?"
Zhou Zheng asked, "What gift?"
The servant said, "Some jewelry and jades are said to be worth thousands of gold."
Zhou Zheng's eyes suddenly widened when he heard the word gold. When he heard the word Qianyi, his mouth opened wide.
He hurriedly said, "Quick, please come in."
Tian Jing was invited in and sat opposite Zhou Zheng.
Tian Jing smiled slightly and said, "Master Zhou, I have admired you for a long time."
Zhou Zheng smiled lukewarmly.
He doesn't like Tian Jing because Tian Jing's reputation is too bad. Now everyone's attention has been diverted easily. If I make friends with him again, wouldn't that force everyone to talk about me?
But this guy Tian Jing is really rich. The first move is a thousand yi of gold. If he could give such a generous gift every day, the Zhou family would soon be able to recover.
When Zhou Zheng was thinking wildly, Tian Jing suddenly said, "I wonder if Mr. Zhou is willing to give me a favor?"
Zhou Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's the matter?"
Tian Jing chuckled and said, "The day after tomorrow, Mr. Tian will entertain the Exorcist at the Exorcist Tower."
Zhou Zheng frowned and said, "I am not particularly familiar with Huaiguzi."
The lack of familiarity is false. The real reason is that Zhou Zheng hates Li Shui.
Tian Jing said quietly, "Mr. Zhou, you and I have both been bullied by Huaiguzi. Don't you want to get it back? If you just avoid it, how can you get revenge?"
Zhou Zheng's face suddenly turned red. He immediately wanted to change the subject and said, "Since you are not on good terms with Huaiguzi, why do you still entertain him?"
Tian Jing said, "Because I am now alone, I have to pretend to be friends with him in order to survive. I studied in 88, and when I find more people like Mr. Zhou who have the same interests, I can deal with him Him."
Zhou Zheng was shocked, "You have to deal with Huaiguzi"
Tian Jing said, "That's right. It's just because you and I share the same problem that Tian told us frankly. If Brother Zhou wants to give Tian a high salary as a way to advance into the world, Tian will do as he pleases."
Tian Jing dared to say this because he had felt Zhou Zheng's pulse. He had already found out clearly that Zhou Zheng, who cursed Huaiguzi in his house all day long, would never betray himself and surrender to Huaiguzi.
Sure enough, after hearing Tian Jing's words, Zhou Zheng said angrily, "If you think I am someone else and say such words, then Zhou will have to send the guest away."
Tian Jing smiled slightly and apologized quickly.
For the sake of money, Zhou Zheng quickly forgave Tian Jing.
The two finally discussed it, and Zhou Zheng decided to form an alliance with Tian Jing secretly. As for the banquet the day after tomorrow, he will not go.
Zhou Zheng made it clear that apart from court discussions, there would be no Huai Guzi without him.
Seeing that Zhou Zheng hated Li Shui so firmly, Tian Jing suddenly felt happy and left with satisfaction.
As soon as Tian Jing left, Zhou Zheng began to sneer, "Isn't it too long to win over me and deal with Huaiguzi?"
Zhou Zheng had no intention of really becoming Tian Jing's ally, and of course, he had no intention of betraying Tian Jing. He wanted to keep Tian Jing, so that he could squeeze money out of Tian Jing. After all, Zhou Zheng has been too poor recently.
As for Tian Jing, after leaving the Zhou Mansion, he went to the homes of several other courtiers. During his investigation, these people secretly cursed Li Shui all day long, and they cursed fiercely. In Tian Jing's opinion, these people can be friends.
Sure enough, after he gave him the generous gift, these people were extremely polite to him.
However, when he left, these people were all just like Zhou Zheng, counting their money and sneering.
In one day, Tian Jing dispersed countless money and won over several courtiers. In Tian Jing's opinion, he already has a lot of strength.
It's night, it's late. Tian Jing watched the sky stars go and smiled slightly, "It doesn't seem to be difficult to start a career in Xianyang."
In the palace, Hu Ji changed her clothes. She took off her Han family clothes and only wore a wolf skin.
This is her magic weapon, only she can bring such exotic charm to Ying Zheng. But Ying Zheng has not been here for a long time.
Recently, whether Ying Zheng comes or not, Hu Ji is always dressed like this. Her purpose is that as long as Ying Zheng looks at her, he will stay. As long as Ying Zheng stays, he will use all his strength to regain favor.
The weather turned a bit cooler today. Hu Ji felt a little cold, so she wrapped herself in a wolfskin.
During the day, Ji Ming came to see her. Ji Ming has been in constant contact with her recently, and it seems that he wants to form an alliance with her.
But Hu Ji doesn't think much of Ji Ming. For no other reason, this guy was beaten all day long in the palace. Such a person seems to have no ability.
But now that the Wang family has collapsed, her parents’ family can’t count on them. Zhao Gao died again. Hu Ji's place became the most deserted place in the entire harem.
Now it's easy to wait for the unlucky guy Ji Ming, so let's make do with it for now.
Therefore, she did not explicitly express her intention to form an alliance with Ji Ming, but she did not reject him either. If you can use it, just use it. If you don't need it, you can kick it away without being implicated.
Ji Ming secretly told her today that he helped Hu Hai find several masters.
These masters are not powerful people in Xianyang, but powerful people in Guandong. Hu Ji was a little disapproving of this, but Ji Ming said that these powerful people had strong financial resources and had already contacted many courtiers.
Ji Ming then told Hu Ji that His Majesty held the imperial examination just to find an excuse to appoint these powerful people, so in time, these powerful people will all be ranked as ministers.
Hu Ji was doubtful about this. So I still have the same attitude, don't agree or refuse, just wait and see what happens.
If these powerful men really passed the imperial examination and became high-ranking officials, then there would be no harm in recognizing a master. If they make no achievements in the government, they will go back where they came from.
Hu Ji's ambiguous attitude made Ji Ming very excited. He always felt that he had already figured out Hu Ji.
So the next day he sneaked out of the palace and met Tian Jing. The two exchanged information and found that the situation was excellent.
There are courtiers outside and Hu Hai inside. There is Tian Jing's financial resources and Ji Ming's news. This time, I will definitely be able to achieve great success.
Tian Jing couldn't hold it any longer and asked Ji Ming, "Should we take action now to deal with Huaiguzi?"
Ji Ming said, "Don't be impatient and wait a few more months. When the imperial examination is over, everything will be ready."
Tian Jing's eyes lit up and he said, "Yes, when the imperial examination is over, we will show off our weapons against Huaiguzi. During these few months, we will first collect some evidence of Huaiguzi's crimes."
Ji Ming nodded in agreement, "The evidence must be sufficient. The reason why Huaiguzi was brought down before was because there was insufficient evidence."
Tian Jing looked like he had been taught something and nodded vigorously.
The day of feasting finally arrived.
Not many guests came this time. In addition to Tian Jing and the Xiong brothers, there are also Jing Fu, Li Xin, Zhou Qingchen and Wei Zhang.
Tian Jing and the Xiong brothers are considered the initiators of the banquet, so they must come. And Jing Fu is Xiang Liang's spy, so he has to join in all the excitement.
Li Xin simply wanted to drink, but of course he was also afraid that someone at the banquet would be unfavorable to Li Shui, so he came to scare everyone.
As for Zhou Qingchen and Wei Zhang, they wanted to flatter him, so when Li Shui came, they came too.
In fact, Xiong Da's letters were sent to many people, but those people pretended to be sick and could not come. This made Xiong Da a little unhappy. However, the main topic today is to resolve the conflict between Tian Jing and Li Shui. The unhappiness of others can be put aside for the time being.
Several people arrived at the second floor of the Banished Immortal Building and were waiting for Li Shui in the best room.
The time has come, but Li Shui has not appeared yet.
Tian Jing was a little annoyed, "Could this person be playing tricks on me? I promised to come, but didn't show up, causing me to wait here and then embarrassing myself."
According to Tian Jing's temperament, he really wanted to stand up and walk away. But then he thought, now is not the time to fight with Huaiguzi, the important thing is to show weakness, so he sat back again.
Tian Jing thought for a while, made a very worried expression, and asked Li Xin, "Will the banished immortal stop coming?"
Li Xin said absentmindedly while drinking, "Don't worry, even if Brother Huai doesn't come, I will help you eat all the food and wine."
Tian Jing was a little speechless. Is that what I meant?
At this time, Tian Jia hurriedly ran up and said with joy, "Here, master, the banished immortal is here."
Everyone stood up quickly and prepared to go downstairs to meet Li Shui.
But at this time, there was a thumping sound on the stairs, and Li Shui had already gone upstairs.
After they saw Li Shui, their eyes were a little stunned.
This guy was wearing armor, a helmet on his head, a sword on his waist, and a dog in his arms.
Tian Jing was a little confused, "Exiled Immortal, what are you doing?"
Li Shui snorted and said, "I have nothing to do. Practice and practice."
Li Xin almost laughed out loud.
While Tian Jing and others were wondering, they heard another thumping sound coming from the stairs. Immediately afterwards, five or six fully armed craftsmen came up and stood behind Li Shui with wary expressions.
Tian Jing had already figured it out by this time. He laughed and said, "I am too cautious to banish an immortal. Is it possible that there will be someone who fails to assassinate me?"
Li Shui turned to look at him, narrowed his eyes and said, "You are mocking me."
Tian Jing was a little speechless. Was he deliberately looking for trouble?
Facing Li Shui's aggressive gaze, Tian Jing felt his face hurt, so he picked up the wine glass and said, "I made a mistake, and I will punish myself with one drink."
Then, drink the glass of wine in one gulp.
Xiong Da chuckled and said, "Today, Brother Tian is the host, and he wants to settle the old feud with the Banished Immortal. The Banished Immortal really has a lot of adults, and the reward is here. Hahaha, Brother Tian, why don't you give the Banished Immortal a drink quickly?" With this glass of wine, everyone's past grievances will be wiped out. No mention of slave schemes or anything like that will be mentioned again."
Tian Jing immediately picked up the wine glass.
Li Shui was not in a hurry. He poured a little wine on the plate and let the dog in his arms lick it. There is nothing strange about seeing a dog. Then he raised his glass and took a sip.
Tian Jing was furious and thought, "Huai Guzi, how dare you insult me like this. If I don't kill you in the future, I will write my last name upside down." 11 Friends who read books, you can search for "blue", that is, You can find this site as soon as possible.
