Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 135 The father and son of the Zhe family and their arrival in the northwest

Zhang Heng slowly walked into Sanniang's room. Sanniang seemed very surprised by his arrival. After all, Zhang Heng had not been to her place for a long time.

And the servants in this mansion are all about serving food. This official never comes to her, and she has no status now, so people naturally have some changes in their treatment of her.

So she seemed very excited at this time, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Heng take off his robe. After Zhang Heng arrived here, he was also unusually relaxed.

"Okay, stop being busy, come here and let me take a good look, how are you doing recently?" Zhang Heng said and directly pulled Sanniang over, and then looked at her carefully.

The look in his eyes was full of aggression, which was completely different from what he had shown before, but Sanniang was used to it because she was already used to the wildness of this official in her family.

Zhang Heng's emotions towards Sanniang are very complicated. This is his real place of relaxation. Here he never considers pity for her.

He is very comfortable doing whatever he wants, so he actually likes coming here, but he forces himself not to come because he knows that occasional indulgence is okay.

But if you indulge so often that it becomes a habit, it will not be a pleasure but a disaster.

After a big battle, Zhang Heng said breathlessly, "I have packed up in the past few days and will go to the northwest with me in a few days. After this trip, I estimate that I will not be able to come back within a few years."

Sanniang didn't say much after hearing this, because she had always been like this in front of an official in her family, and she could only say a few words at the beginning.

But then she stopped talking, because she found that her official would become completely different when she was here.

This frightened her, so she stopped saying anything from then on, but at the same time it made her happy, because not everyone could see her official side.

Since he is willing to expose this side of him in front of her, this is something she should be happy about.

As for Sanniang's silence, Zhang Heng had long been accustomed to it, and he was deeply touched by the changes in his own liberating nature.

It was only through Sanniang that he realized that he would be under such great pressure, which he would never dare to imagine.

After all, both outsiders and himself thought that his life was very comfortable, but in fact there were some things accumulating in the dark, and they were accumulating more and more.

If it weren't for accepting Sanniang, he really wouldn't have known that he had reached this point.

The next day soon came, and Zhang Heng was called to the study by his father.

"Father, you want me to set off within seven days? Is this lady impatient enough?" Zhang Heng said
"Okay, stop complaining. Don't you still have to leave early and leave late? Go back and tidy up in the next few days. Pay attention and see how you are now?" Zhang Chenglu said

"Hey, Dad, aren't we leaving soon? I don't know when I will come back after leaving this time. I have to take everyone with me. Is this inevitable?"

"But don't worry, dad. It won't happen in the next few days. I have to recharge my batteries and get ready to go. By the way, dad, has the fourth brother's position been decided?" Zhang Heng said
"Silang's position is to recruit the deputy envoy and the military commander of the state, and he will be with you." Zhang Chenglu said

"Huh? It's interesting. Is this the arrangement? This is really interesting. By the way, Dad, is there any news from the Zhe family?" Zhang Heng asked again
"It can't be so fast, but considering the time, this letter should reach Zhejia by now." Zhang Chenglu said

Zhang Heng nodded after hearing this, and then said nothing more. He bowed and exited the study. In the next few days, Zhang Heng really recharged his energy.

In fear of losing his will, he simply slept in his study until the day he set out seven days later.

Because this time I have to take all my women to the northwest together, so I have to prepare a lot more things when they set off.

There were ten carriages in the box cage, which immediately attracted the attention of the people in the capital. They all cursed in their hearts, what kind of aliens from the Zhang family, haven't they shown their true colors now?
These powerful people all speak better than they sing, and they have never been any different. They are all just pretending. Of course, they only dare to think about it in their hearts.

I would never dare to say that. After all, the Zhang family is not an ordinary family. They have soldiers in their hands. If one of them fails, the family will be exterminated. The reason does not make sense with Qiu Ba.

The people were talking like this, and the palace naturally knew it, but both the eldest lady and His Majesty in the palace seemed very happy after learning the news.

Zhang Heng didn't know this, or he didn't care if he knew it, because this was his intention. After all, who made him an alien?
If you don't behave normally before departure, how can the two people in the palace feel relieved?

It can be said that he had everything planned out. The convoy of the two brothers Zhang Heng slowly left the capital and finally disappeared from everyone's sight.

At the same time, in the Jingzhao Mansion on Shaanxi Road, Zhe Weizhong was discussing with his son the letter sent by the Zhang family.

"Xuan'er, what do you think about this matter? What should we do?" Zhe Weizhong said

Zhe Jixuan knew that this was his father testing himself, so he did not waste time and said directly, "Father, I think this is a good opportunity."

"Although we have had contact with the Zhang family before, it is still too superficial. Now that their family members have arrived in our territory, we have a deeper connection."

"Our family has been in the northwest for so many years. Although it doesn't seem like much now, father, as the saying goes, if you don't worry about the long term, you will have immediate worries. Ever since the Tan Yuan Alliance was signed."

"There will be no friction between us and the Liao Kingdom, but without the war, will our family still be of use? Now, this majesty was taught by scholars." "His attitude towards our generals will definitely not be any better. Go, the purpose this time is obviously to let us fight with the Zhang family, this is just a way to check and balance our two families."

"Haier feels that this decree can be put aside for the time being. Our cooperation with the Zhang family is the top priority. After all, they need us, and we also need them."

Zhe Weizhong didn't say anything after hearing this, just nodded, and then looked at his son.

Zhe Jixuan felt uncomfortable being looked at, but he knew that now was not the time to retreat, so he could only stand there bravely.

"Xuan'er, since you already have an idea, I'll leave it to you, but remember, this time is just a trial, don't take it too seriously." Zhe Weizhong said

Although Oritsugu was a little confused after hearing this, he was smart enough not to ask. After all, in his father's heart, he was no match for his younger brother.

If he asked this question again, he would probably lose even more points in his father's heart, so he did not ask further questions, but bowed and left the study.

Zhe Weizhong looked at his son's leaving back, a trace of sadness flashed across his brows, and then disappeared. At this time, Zhe Jixuan knew nothing about it.

As time passed slowly, Zhang Heng finally reached the northwest. As soon as he arrived at the foot of Bingzhou City, he saw a group of people in official uniforms approaching.

The moment Zhang Heng dismounted, the three leaders stepped forward and said, "I'm waiting to see Zhang Jinglue."

"Haha, colleagues, get up quickly, get up quickly, why are you so polite? Zhang is new here, how can I rely on you to take care of me from now on?"

After hearing this, the three leaders looked at each other without trace, and then one of them stepped forward and said, "Zhang Jinglue, you are so polite. Your subordinate, Shen Ke, is the transfer envoy of Hedong Road."

Zhang Heng also bowed his hands after hearing this, and then another person stood up and said, "Zhang Jinglue, my subordinate is Wu Gang from the Criminal Division."

After Zhang Heng heard this, the process was still the same. At this time, the last person also came out to introduce himself, Chen Lin from the Cang Division. These three people plus him, the general manager, were all the chiefs of the Fourth Division of Hedong Road.

At this time, Zhang Heng also introduced Zhang He to the three of them, and then no one was qualified to introduce them alone. They all saluted together, and after a few words of greeting, they entered the city.

Chen Lin arranged for people to send the two brothers' family members to the mansion for resettlement. Naturally, the two brothers followed the group to the restaurant, euphemistically calling it "Receiving the Wind and Washing the Dust".

It was said that they were catching up with each other, but in fact it was just testing each other, but this is how it is in officialdom, so they drank the wine with tacit understanding.

Finally, Zhang Heng slowly got on the carriage with the help of his fourth brother. As the carriage slowly started to move, Zhang Heng's expression returned to normal.

"Wulang, when did you learn this skill? When our brothers were drinking before, you didn't do the same thing, right?" Zhang He said with a smile.

"Fourth brother, please don't accuse me unjustly. I'm not that kind of person. Do you really think I am willing? I am not forced to do this. You don't know. Each of these civil servants is better than the last."

"If you want to beat them in drinking, then you don't even have to think about it, so I have no choice but to cheat? Okay, let's not talk about this. Fourth brother, what do you think?" Zhang Heng asked

"How? Haha, three old foxes, fifth brother, you must be careful. No matter how I look at these three people, they don't look like fuel-efficient lamps. They might just hold back and go bad?" Zhang He said
"Yes, each of these three people is more difficult to deal with. Even Wu Gang, who seems to have no scheming intentions, is also very wise and foolish. Anyone who treats him as a mallet is a fool."

"But this is to be expected. We have just arrived and it's still a long time. There are only a few of us. Let's take care of it slowly." Zhang Heng said
Zhang He didn't say anything after hearing this. After a while, the carriage stopped and Zhang He said, "Okay, I'm at the place. I'll go back now and talk about it in a few days."

Zhang Heng nodded after hearing this. After his fourth brother got off, the carriage slowly drove towards his mansion. At this time, the scene just now flashed through his mind.

At the same time, the three Shen Ke people did not leave at all, because the restaurant was Chen Lin's property, so after the three people broke up, they went to a room in the backyard to discuss what had just happened.

"Two of you, our manager seems to be difficult to deal with, right?" Chen Lindao
"Haha, it's hard to deal with? I can't see, right? Isn't he just a dandy from the Zhang family? It's probably just an embroidered pillow, so don't take it too seriously." Wu Gang said
"Hey, Brother Wu, you must not say that. This Wulang is definitely not as simple as it seems. After all, the three brothers of the Zhang family have been able to control the military power of the capital for so many years."

"It's impossible not to know the importance of this opportunity to their family. Zhang Silang and Zhang Wulang are here together. In order of eldest and youngest, shouldn't the manager be Zhang Silang?" Shen Ke said
"Huh? Yes, it's really interesting. It's indeed a bit weird for Silang to be the deputy and Wulang to be the manager. Brother Shen, what should I do?" Wu Gang asked
"Right now it's not what we want to do, but what the Zhang family wants to do. Besides, when will the three of us make the decision on Hedong Road?" Shen Ke said
"Huh? Brother Shen, what do you mean? Yes, we are not the ones who should be anxious now. His family has been at the border for so many years, and suddenly an outsider comes. How could he not be anxious?" Wu Gang said
"Brother Shen, what do you mean, let the Zhe family take the lead and let us reap the benefits?" Chen Lin said
"Yes, that's what I mean. Now that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, the Zhang family has done something like this at this juncture. Do we have to guard against the tricks involved?"

"After all, the three of you and I will always have to return to Beijing in the future. If we have done this now, will the three of us be under people's noses by then? That will not be a good life." Shen Ke said
"Okay, isn't it just to make offerings to Bodhisattva? It's not like we haven't done this kind of thing before. Don't worry, it was the same as it was before." Wu Gang said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Shen Ke and the other two said nothing. The candlelight flickered on the faces of the three people, and combined with the expressions of the three people at this time, it looked very strange.

Zhang Heng had no time to think about this, because at this time he was already in the bathtub, enjoying his wife's massage and feeling comfortable.

"Madam, who did you learn this skill from? Did you learn it quickly enough?" Zhang Heng said with a smile.

"Haha, it's fine if you like it, Officer. In fact, I knew these things before, but at that time I just thought it was fun, so I just learned to play. I didn't expect that I would actually use them."

"By the way, officer, how are things going today? Is it going well?" Gao Hui said
"Haha, I don't know if it's going well or not. Anyway, it's the three old foxes who are talking about everything. The time is too short and I can't tell why."

"But before leaving Beijing, I read the information of these three people, and they are not people with extraordinary backgrounds. I can only say that they are pretty good." Zhang Heng said
"Official, I advise you not to be too careless. I heard that the former military envoy, who was a disciple of Prime Minister Ke, ended up being ruined by these three people." Gao Huidao
"Don't worry, ma'am, I know the severity. In fact, I'm not afraid of them making a move, I'm just afraid that they won't make a move. After all, I only have the Zhejia card now, which they don't know."

"If they don't make any move before I come out, I'm afraid they will be in trouble in the future." Zhang Heng said in a deep voice.
