Chang'an, the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, light snow.

When I was in Weicheng, every day on this day, Uncle Shi would take him to sacrifice to the Kitchen God and replace the old peach talisman with new ones to welcome the new year.

If it were those families with women, they would clean the house and cut some window grilles to paste it this day.

But he and Uncle Shi naturally did not have a pair of skillful hands, so they could only change the Taota and clean the house casually.

But since he left Weicheng, he has never offered sacrifices to the Kitchen God, let alone the New Year.

This year, maybe he can have a New Year.

Xu Changan wore a robe on his blue shirt and stood on the steps, while Wang Zihan was leaning against him.

The snow falls on earth and rusts down.

Xu Changan stretched out his New Year, and snowflakes fell on his palm.

"Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. I hope this year is a stable year!" Xu Changan said lightly.

Wang Zihan, who was leaning on his shoulder, looked up at him, showed a smile on his face, stretched out his hand to help Xu Changan stroking his temples that were scattered by the wind, and comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry,

This year will definitely be a stable year. Li Tian thought about finding Zhan Xu to take revenge, but Zhan Xu's life and death are unknown. The world has been stable for a short time, and it will definitely be fine."

Xu Changan nodded, took a deep breath and sighed: "It should be."

After a while, King Jin brought himself to the yard with a plate of water in his hand.

Looking at the King of Jin in this posture, the two of them were stunned at the same time and looked at King of Jin in confusion.

Before they could ask questions, King Jin grinned and said, "Isn't this Xiao Nian? I'll help you clean up the dust and change the peach talisman."

Xu Changan was stunned. The dignified King of Jin, personally help them clean up the dust?

King Jin grinned, put down the basin, and then hugged his sleeves upwards.

"Your whereabouts cannot be revealed. Now even the servants don't know that you are here. If you expose your whereabouts because of a change of peach talisman and alert the snake, it will be more than worth the loss. Therefore, I will come to help you and your wife clean up the dust."

A smile appeared on King Jin's face, but this smile looked strange. He just came to behave on purpose.

"Okay, how dare you help Prince Jin to do it? I'll do it." Wang Zihan said angrily and took away the basin brought by King Jin just now.

Xu Changan looked at King Jin and said helplessly: "Prince, is there any news about Zhou Rusheng now?"

King Jin shook his head, with a look of shame on his face, and sighed and said, "No, this child was originally here to celebrate his father's birthday, but he turned out to be like this."

"The day after tomorrow is Zhou Shangshu's birthday. What is he going to do?" Xu Changan frowned.

"What else can I do? I just have a meal at home. As for those who want to take advantage of this day, they will either be rejected by him or warned by him." King Jin replied lightly, King Jin said

Then, he kept looking into the yard, as if he was looking for something.

He came to Xu Changan for this reason.

Others can not celebrate Zhou Shangshu’s birthday, so they both have to express it.

Xu Changan thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, we won't go. But the gifts still need to be in place."

As soon as Xu Changan finished speaking, Li Daoyi walked over from the other end of the yard. The yard that King Jin gave them to live in was quite large. A few days ago, Li Daoyi was accompanied by him again, but Xu Changan could not see him.

Li Daoyi came over, yawned, nodded to King Jin, and said hello. Then he looked at Xu Changan's shoulder and patted him and said, "I played for another night last night, so I went to bed first."

, Remember to call me when you have a meal!"

Xu Changan nodded helplessly. After Li Daoyi said that, he walked towards his room. The King of Jin looked at Li Daoyi's back, and wanted to speak but stopped, his eyes were a little complicated.

Xu Changan just thought that King Jin came today for the birthday of Shangshu Zhou. Now it seems that it is not that simple.

"Daoyi, wait a moment!"

Xu Changan understood the eyes of King Jin and stopped Li Daoyi.

"Prince, just say something if you have anything to do!" Xu Changan looked at King Jin and asked seriously.

King Jin was seen through his worries, so he gritted his teeth and bowed to Li Daoyi and said, "Prince Li will help me to tell my fortune!"

Li Daoyi was stunned and did not refuse directly, but said, "Don't let me be a scorching person. It doesn't matter to others if you are like Zhan Xu." Except for these big names who can stir up the world, it's better to be considered by others.

Li Daoyi will not have any major impact.

Moreover, their lives are now linked to Jiu Gen. Jiu Gen's vitality is enough for him and Xu Changan to struggle. Moreover, Jiu Gen is still following Mr. Wu Mengfan to cultivate one's own character, which is a backlash of others' fate.

Li Daoyi said that it was equivalent to tickling.

"Why should you do it?" Li Dao shook his sleeves and hurriedly helped the King of Jin up.

King Jin was very nice to them. In fact, even if he helped some big shots, as long as King Jin insisted and spoke, Li Daoyi would help.

"Prince, give me his birth date and horoscope, and I'll take a look for it for you."

The King of Jin really came to do a fortune-telling. He took out a piece of paper that had been prepared from his wide sleeves and handed it to Li Daoyi.

When Li Dao looked at the birth date, he sat in the snow. At this time, the entire yard seemed to be covered with a white blanket, but the blanket contained the footprints left by the King of Jin when he came in.

Li Daoyi hit him and sat cross-legged on the ground, then took out a turtle shell from his sleeve and started shaking it.

Immediately afterwards, he took a look at the birth date, frowned, and began to tell fortunes by fingers.

Seeing Li Dao frowned, and King Jin's heart became nervous.

After a while, Li Daoyi sighed, broke down a branch, and started writing on the snow. After writing, he stood up, swept the snow on his body, and left.

Seeing this, Xu Chang'an and King Jin hurriedly followed, and saw eight big words on the snow.

"The old friend returns, and the blood is in full bloom!"

Seeing these eight words, King Jin's brows immediately twisted into a rope and his face turned pale.

These eight words are not difficult to understand.

Seeing that King Jin was like this, Xu Changan immediately understood the eight words he contacted again.

"Is this... Lord Zhou's birthday?"

King Jin nodded, waved his sleeves and destroyed the eight words, then said: "A few days, Lord Zhou seems to be restless, so I sent someone to ask the people around him. It is said that the recent few

On the till, he kept dreaming that Zhou Rusheng was lying in the river with blood all over his body, and kept asking Lord Zhou to save him. Moreover, his right eyelid has been twitching these days."

"I'm also worried that something might happen to Lord Zhou, so I prepared his birth date and horoscope and came to Master Li to make a fortune. By the way, Chang'an, what do you think of these eight words?"

Hearing the King of Jin's question, Xu Changan took a deep breath and said, "Old friend, it should be said that it was Zhou Rusheng. The prince asked this question, but he actually wanted to ask whether Zhou Rusheng had betrayed us, right? After all, now he has no news,

With the control of Shenxianle, it is normal for you to suspect him!"

King Jin nodded and sighed, "He has disappeared in the past few days, and he has even disappeared. The lotus in your happy building has frequently left the city these days. The people we sent are not afraid to follow him to the end.

We speculate that she should have gone to find Zhou Rusheng. Moreover, it is not uncommon for people controlled by Shenxianle to kill their father and mother. No matter what, we have to ensure the safety of Lord Zhou and not let the ministers in the court be in charge of the court.

The heart is cold."

"According to the prophecy left by Daoyi, there are two situations now. The first situation is that Zhou Rusheng is really controlled by the other party and is here to kill Lord Zhou; the second situation is that the other party does not fully believe in Zhou Rusheng.

, He had not seen the main character yet. And the other party asked him to attack Lord Zhou, which was a test!" Xu Changan pondered for a moment, rubbed his chin and analyzed.

The King of Jin nodded, and the two stood in the wind and snow.

"Then what kind of situation do you think it will be? Even in the latter situation, Zhou Rusheng could not pass the message back. After all, we suspect that Xie Tiannan has penetrated!" King Jin suddenly said.

Xu Changan did not avoid this question, so he replied directly: "I have always been willing to speculate on others with the greatest kindness, so I think it is the latter situation. But people who are not allowed to guard against others are necessary. That day I will secretly protect Lord Zhou.

.”

When the King of Jin heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Xu Changan to thank him. With Xu Changan secretly protecting him, he could feel at ease.

...

Outside Chang'an City.

Zhou Rusheng looked at Lianhua who was wearing clothes. Since he promised to assassinate his father, his treatment has become better and better.

Zhou Rusheng looked at Lianhua's back and suddenly said, "Can you stay here?"

Lianhua didn't turn around. She pulled up her clothes and covered her shoulders, but said lightly: "No, I will come to accompany you tomorrow. However, I can not accept customers."

Hearing this, Zhou Rusheng hugged the lotus from behind.

Lianhua felt warm in her heart, but she still spread his hand open, turned around and hugged Zhou Rusheng's shoulder and said, "Rusheng, as long as you complete the task, we will be together all the time in the future."

After saying that, he kissed Zhou Rusheng on the cheek and left.

Zhou Rusheng looked at Lianhua's leaving figure, wiped his face the moment he turned around, and frowned.

As for the current situation, he had no choice but to listen to the words of Lianhua and Wugensheng.

...

On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, it was still snowing in the sky.

After the courtship, Lord Zhou returned to the mansion. Today, it was originally the son who celebrated his birthday, but now he can only ask the people in the mansion to have a meal to celebrate.

Lord Zhou's wife died early, so Zhou Rusheng was always raised by his grandparents.

A few days ago, Lord Zhou's parents passed away one after another. Lord Zhou should have resigned and returned to his hometown to mourn for three years. However, after the resignation was submitted, he was beaten back by the King of Jin.

It’s not that King Jin did not follow the etiquette and law, but the officials at all levels suffered a lot a few days ago. In addition, Xun Fa left, there was really a shortage of people in the court. In desperation, King Jin could only forcibly defeat Lord Zhou.
