Zhang Fei looked at the dangling back of the old man Sima, thoughtfully. Did he not want me to join the court and help Wang Anshi? Or maybe he wanted to bring me to his side, or maybe he had another purpose.

Sima Guang's sudden win over really made Zhang Fei a little unexpected and flattered.

After thinking for a long time, he still did not dare to make a judgment, because he knew that the next party struggle would be very terrible. The key is that it is difficult to choose between both sides, and he currently has no ability to change everything. If he is on the wrong boat, This life is ruined, and there are endless troubles. You must know that even Su Shi, who has fans all over the world, failed here!

"no!"

Zhang Fei shook his head: "Although I have already stepped into this vortex, I must hold my own destiny in my own hands. Now I have a good relationship with Wang Anshi and Sima Guang. Why should I rush to judge? This The initiative belongs to me, why not watch from the sidelines first. If I get into officialdom, I have to choose a side. I don't even have a good place for myself now, so how can I think about national affairs? "

He put the matter behind him and went to Chen's tooth shop.

Since the attack, Zhang Fei has lived back in the Xu Mansion... No, it should be said that he has never left. He has never lived in the new house for a day.

Although the matter has been resolved now, Zhang Fei does not plan to move there. He was beaten on the first day he moved there. Even if he is not superstitious, he will feel scared.

But he will not continue to live in Xu Mansion. His determination to move out has not changed. He now urgently needs nightlife. This is the only benefit for time travellers!

When I came to Chen's house, I saw that Chen Maoqian was wearing a brand new green robe and looked very festive. I couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything happy today, outside the committee?"

"hehe!"

Chen Maoqian smiled coquettishly: "It's not a big happy event, so I haven't posted anything to you."

Zhang Fei asked: "Celebrating your birthday?"

"no no."

"What kind of happy event is that?"

Zhang Fei watched Chen Maoqian dodge left and right, wondering in his heart whether he was afraid to tell others about this happy event.

Chen Maoqian coughed: "Just... I just recently added a concubine."

As soon as the mortgage was paid out, the Ma family went crazy with their sales. Chen Maoqian made a lot of money, and the joy of taking a concubine was naturally a matter of course!

You LSP stole our money and went to find a young girl. This is really unreasonable.

Zhang Fei felt envious and jealous when he thought that he was so young and had no concubines or girlfriends. He said sourly: "Commissioner, please don't take care of everything. Leave such hard work to us young people." It’s enough for people to do it, there’s no need to do it yourself.”

"Your Excellency is joking." Chen Maoqian blushed and quickly changed the subject: "I wonder what you are doing here today?"

Zhang Fei was originally in a good mood, but seeing that Chen Maoqian had another concubine, which was the life he was looking forward to, his mood suddenly turned bad. He said, "I'm here to inform the officials. I plan to go to the government to file a complaint." "

"What?"

Chen Maoqian was immediately frightened out of his mind.

Even the court officials were sued by Zhang Fei and forced to leave the capital. How could his old bones withstand Zhang Fei's torture?

"Misunderstanding!"

Chen Maoqian hurriedly said: "Sanlang, don't get excited yet. There must be some misunderstanding between us."

"No!" Zhang Fei shook his head stubbornly.

Chen Maoqian wondered: "There is no misunderstanding, why do you suddenly want to sue me?"

Zhang Fei said: "Remember when I asked you to help me find a house, my only condition was safety, but as a result, I was beaten black and blue on the first day I moved in. You can't say this is cheating, you are simply committing a crime. ah!"

"I don't want to do this either, and...and this has nothing to do with me!" Chen Maoqian felt aggrieved and was about to cry.

You don’t know why you were beaten. You can also blame me for this.

Zhang Fei said calmly: "I did offend someone I shouldn't have offended, but why didn't the other party retaliate against me when I lived in the Xu Mansion?"

Chen Maoqian said: "Who dares to go to Xu Temple Minister's house to cause trouble for you?"

Zhang Fei said: "In other words, they only dare to retaliate against me in the house you rented to me?"

"...!"

Chen Maoqian knew very well that arguing with this person would only make him more guilty, so he hurriedly said: "Sanlang, this time I will treat you as an old man who can't help you. I will help you find another house, and the rent will be the lowest for you." Yes, do you like it?"

Zhang Fei said: "What if I get beaten again?"

Chen Maoqian really didn't dare to make this guarantee. This kid had countless enemies, so it was normal for him to be beaten. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, "By the way! Wasn't that Qian Yushi sent by the envoy some time ago?" Are you an official from other places?"

Zhang Fei was surprised and said: "Qian Yushi, do I know him?"

Chen Maoqian said: "I heard that he was sent to other places because of the Ayun case, so I thought you knew."

"Oh... I'm just from Erbi, how could I know about this?" After saying that, Zhang Fei asked curiously: "What does this have to do with my renting a house?"

Chen Maoqian said: "He used to live behind Xu Mansion, only separated by a small alley. After he left, the house fell into my hands. Logically speaking, the small courtyard is more expensive than the one you rented before. It’s twice as much, but I’ll still rent it to you for half a year at the original price, without any extra money from you, just consider it as compensation from me.”

Behind the Xu Mansion, it's pretty safe. Zhang Fei nodded thoughtfully.

Chen Maoqian added: "But this time we have to agree that if anything happens, you can't come to me."

Zhang Fei said angrily: "If the house collapses, I can't look for you."

Chen Maoqian shook his head and said, "That can't be found either."

"Wow...you're going too far!"

"Sanlang, I'm really scared. How about I refund your money and pay you twice as much, and you can rent it elsewhere." Chen Maoqian said with an aggrieved look.

It was originally a day of great joy, but seeing Zhang Fei almost turned into a day of mourning.

I...did I exert too much force and make myself have no friends? Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "I'm just joking with you. I just want to change my house. Please don't be like this."

Chen Maoqian looked at him suspiciously: "What if you are not joking."

"Okay, okay, just this room, I won't look for you, okay."

But as he said this, Zhang Fei felt that he was at a loss, so he said, "How about you give me another concubine? I'm still single now."

Chen Maoqian was dumbfounded.

I'll rent it to you at half price and give you a room for a concubine...!

The robbers are not as bad as you!

"Just kidding." Zhang Fei was a little embarrassed when he saw Chen Maoqian dumbfounded, and said: "Okay, that's it, let's sign a new contract."

"If you don't sign, we will have a gentleman's agreement." Chen Maoqian shook his head.

Zhang Fei said: "If you don't sign the contract, how can it be done?"

Chen Maoqian shook his head and said: "If you don't sign, you can sue me if you sign. If you don't sign, you can't sue me."

"...!"

Zhang Fei was dumbfounded, "Old Chen, please don't do this. I beg you. I was really just joking with you. Do you think it's so easy to file a lawsuit? If you don't sign a contract, you can kick me out at any time." .”

Chen Maoqian even cried: "How could I have the courage? If you were the one to sue me, how dare I drive you away."

Zhang Fei's expression changed and he said seriously: "If you don't sign a contract with me, I will immediately sue you for tax evasion."

Chen Maoqian trembled in fright, "Sanlang, I have no enmity or enmity with you, why do you want to harm me like this?"

"okay!"

Zhang Fei was also tired, "Stop making trouble. I'm not young anymore. Get it done quickly. Don't you think I'm annoying enough?"

Under Zhang Fei's coercion and inducement, Chen Maoqian tearfully signed another lease contract with him. It was only three pages. He read it for a whole hour and discussed it for another hour. After confirming that it was correct, he let Zhang Fei. Fei signed.

As for the house, Zhang Fei hasn't looked at it yet, but most of the people living in that house are officials, and the house is not much different.

And now they are all ready-made properties, so you can move in with your bag.

Chen Maoqian really sent the Buddha to the west. On the same day, he immediately sent someone to clean the house to see if there were any thieves hiding, and also provided the missing daily necessities. It was really an extraordinary service.

Zhang Fei was really embarrassed to say goodbye to Xu Zun this time, so he just said it during dinner.

Xu Zun was also very satisfied with this. He lived nearby and had someone to take care of him.

One day later.

Xu Mansion, back door.

"You are serious. How can you leave the front door and use the back door? After all, this is just moving to a new home."

Xu Zhiqian looked at Zhang Fei with a strange expression.

Zhang Fei said angrily: "The last time I walked through the front door, I saw blood directly. Although the back door is small, it is safe. No matter how far I go, nothing will happen!"

Xu Zhiqian smiled and said: "Are you all looking for excuses like this? You were beaten to the front door---!"

"you shut up."

Zhang Fei glared at Xu Zhiqian, "I haven't said anything about your crow's mouth yet, but you still dare to say it. I'm going back."

After that, he rushed out of the back door without giving Xu Zhiqian a chance to speak.

Xu Zhiqian felt extremely wronged and stamped her foot fiercely, "It's obvious that you are the only one who stirs up trouble with your mouth, but you blame me. Well, well, well, if you say that I have a crow's mouth, then I will curse you to be beaten again."

As she spoke, she whispered again: "I don't believe it, it's really effective."

...

Why choose the back door? It’s so close!

Opposite is the back door of his residence.

Two steps away, you can enter your new home through the back door of Xu's house.

Looking at the small backyard for sitting and chatting, Zhang Fei clicked his tongue: "It's a little small, but safety is more important. The neighbors here are either rich or expensive, so I don't believe anyone would dare to come and hit me."

Before he could finish his words, his vision went dark.

Come again?

Zhang Fei was numb.
