The Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness of Crossing

Chapter 137: Secrets Heard in Yuan Cuixiao's Cabinet

Zhihua said in a deep voice: "The matter of breaking the formation still needs to be discussed in a long-term way. My brother is here tonight, and there is another urgent matter that is life-threatening. I want to ask my virtuous brother to help me deal with it."

Shen Zhongyuan said solemnly: "Brother Zhi, please tell me, as long as the little brother can do it, I dare not refuse."

Zhihua gave a thumbs up and praised: "Cheerful! It's not too early, brother bad, to make a long story short. The salon in Crouching Tiger Valley can be regarded as Ai Hu's father-in-law. The treacherous king failed to lure him into the team, so he used Huang Gang to make trouble, and took the owner of Shazhuang and Ai Hu. One of his adopted brothers was falsely accused and sent to prison. The treacherous king has many schemes, and I was worried that the two of them would be harmed in prison, so I discussed with Brother Ding and went to prison tomorrow night."

The theft of the birth certificate was actually directed and acted by Xiangyang Wang himself... It seems that the fake father is not only good at acting, but also at the level of director... After listening to what Zhihua said, Yuan Cuixiao suddenly realized, and then became anxious again: You black mountain old demon fox with bad ideas, the last time you stole the imperial crown in the capital, Ding Er missed Gan Yulan's poison dart and almost lost his life.This time, you actually dragged him into prison again. What is the difference between your behavior and a fake father who pulls people to rebel...

"Sure enough, it was Zhao Jue who did it!" Shen Zhongyuan slapped his hand, "Brother Zhi's worries are not unreasonable, Zhao Jue has been resentful towards Jin Hui for a long time, and it is indeed very likely that he will attack him in prison, so as to participate in the impeachment of the prefect However, Master Jin came to visit Zhao Jue today and asked for the secondment of a few guards to reinforce the third squad on duty, I guess it was Brother Zhi's idea."

Zhihua nodded and said, "Exactly."

Shen Zhongyuan thought for a while: "If you do this, you will indeed be able to absolve the Jin prefect. But, how many people are there who are brought to prison by Zhihua?"

Zhihua snapped his fingers and said, "Young brother is counted as one, second brother Ding is one, Ai Hu is one, and Meng Jie is the third head of Shajiazhuang."

Shen Zhongyuan was startled, and asked, "Only four?"

Zhihua looked at him sincerely, and replied, "Only four."

Shen Zhongyuan said worriedly: "Brother Zhi, do you know how many people Zhao Jue dispatched? There are 'Great Sage' Deng Che, 'Piebald Leopard' Lan Yong, 'Drilling Cloud Swallow' Shen Hu, 'Silver Spear General' Xu Mao and his two sons, there are six people in total, all of them are masters with unique skills, plus there are many yamen servants in the third class courtyard. It is not the younger brother who grows the villain's ambition and destroys the older brother's prestige, I am afraid that this trip will be quite difficult !"

Zhihua sighed: "It's because I know it's not easy, that bad brother came to find a good brother for convenience."

Shen Zhongyuan was quite puzzled: "Brother Zhi is referring to..."

Zhihua said slowly: "I heard that the traitorous king has no wife and no heirs, and he only has a daughter-in-law under his knees, and he loves her very much. Since my brother is this little lady's Mr. Xixi, if you can lure her out of the palace, let me capture her Take it with you when you are robbing the prison, Deng Che and the others will be more cautious, and it will be easier to rescue Master Sha."

Someone in the cabinet is about to go crazy: demon fox, demon fox!Shall we clash with you or something?When you were Pan Pan, you often plotted against me, but now you have turned into Yuan Cuixiao, and you still want to play tricks on us!

Shen Zhongyuan said lightly: "Brother Zhi, my female student has nothing to do with this matter, so it's better not to involve her in it."

Zhihua took a deep look at him, and explained: "You don't have to worry, brother, we have no intention of hurting her, and we will send her back after we rescue the two brothers Sha Zhuangzhu."

Shen Zhongyuan lowered his eyes, hesitated, raised his eyes to look at Zhihua, and said firmly: "Brother Zhi, I will be counted in the prison. As for the matter just now, I'm sorry."

Seeing that his mind has been made up, Zhihua didn't need to say anything more, got up and patted his arm and said, "That's fine. Let's fight side by side, brother, kill him!"

Knowing that he was considerate, Shen Zhongyuan cupped his hands and said, "Brother, I'm sorry..."

Zhihua smiled and pressed his hand and said: "It's me who is an older brother. You are an undercover agent in the palace, and your hard work is unknown. You must have a reason for doing this. I will go back now and eat up all the food first." The pastries here made you hungry, I’m sorry.” As he spoke, he held the Ruyi sash with his hand, made a few vertical leaps, climbed up to the roof, and put the watchboard, ash rack and other things in place as they were.Exercising lightness kung fu again, disappeared into the dark night.

The two chatted, and Yuan Cuixiao's words fell into Yuan Cuixiao's ears. She couldn't help being deeply moved: Master, you are so loyal...

The window hole in the ceiling was covered again, and the light in the room was instantly lost. Shen Zhongyuan stood silently for a long time in the dark, then he took out a torch from his arms and lit the oil lamp on the table.A small cluster of flames flickered in the porcelain cup, reflecting a warm dim yellow around.He suddenly saw a food box lying horizontally under the window, his heart froze, he strode forward to check, and lifted the wooden cover, but the inside was empty, recalling what Zhihua said before his departure, his thoughts were surging like a chaotic tide.He held up the lamp and pushed open the window sash. Under the reflection of the fire, there was a layer of light floating dust on the window frame, and there was indeed a slender handprint. Looking at the chairs and objects in the room, the line of sight finally settled on the cabinet in the corner.Immediately hold your voice and hold your breath, step by step towards it.

Yuan Cuixiao held back in the closet for a while, thinking that the fox must have gone far away, held up the skirt with one hand, pressed the door with the other, and was about to push the door out, but the closet door opened at this juncture Suddenly, he was caught off guard, his center of gravity suddenly lost, and he fell out of the cabinet at a speed of free fall.

Although Xiao Zhuge expected that there might be someone hidden in the cabinet, he never expected that this person would fall out the moment he opened the door, and he had to reach out to catch it immediately, but when he heard a "bang bang bang bang" sound, The porcelain lamp fell to the ground and fell apart.Yuan Cuixiao felt her eyes light up, then suddenly dark again, and then she slammed into an embrace firmly.

The room was pitch-dark, some people rejoiced, some people complained.

"Oh..." Yuan Cuixiao stabilized her figure, humming and rubbing her chin, "Master, you are too thin, and your collarbone hurts me."

Shen Zhongyuan's fair face was already red like a fire, and he stood beside her rather helplessly, and said in embarrassment: "You...why did you break into the teacher's residence..."

"I'm thirsty, drink some water and talk to Master." Yuan Cuixiao stumbled to the table, looking for a teacup.

Little Zhuge heard the words, and hurried to the front pot to refill the water.It was so dark that it couldn't be seen clearly, Yuan Cuixiao's mouth was dry, and he reached out to pick it up rashly, Shen Zhongyuan was restless, his tentacles trembled, there was a crisp "crack", and another teacup was knocked off.

The two said in unison: "I'm sorry!"

Yuan Cuixiao said coyly, "I didn't hide in the cabinet on purpose to scare people."

"I... understand it for the teacher." Shen Zhongyuan turned back to the door, took out a piece of candle from the lantern and lit it, poured tea again and handed it to Yuan Cuixiao, "It's cold, drink slowly."

"No problem." Yuan Cuixiao picked up the teacup, drank it all in one gulp, wiped away the water stains around her lips with her sleeve, and complained, "I encountered a bad thing in the back garden early this morning. I came here specially to talk to my wife. It was cold outside, so I turned in through the window and sat down. Who knew that old fox was hanging on the beam to saw the watch board. I heard the sound and thought I was recruiting thieves, so I was scared I have to hide in the cabinet for a while. If he refuses to leave, how can I come out, so I have to hold back until now."

Shen Zhongyuan asked with concern: "What happened?"

Yuan Cuixiao clutched the empty bowl, looking a little confused: "I saw the Peng Qi you mentioned just now, that old man didn't know whether he was using black magic or some kind of trick to deceive his eyes. I took it back to the flower stem, and I was scared to death when I saw it."

"You bumped into Peng Qi?!" Shen Zhongyuan's expression tightened, and he asked anxiously, "What else did he say to you?"

"Yes." Yuan Cuixiao nodded, seeing little Zhuge's anxious face, she couldn't help being surprised, "Master, are you alright?"

Shen Zhongyuan stood up abruptly, and said sharply, "Answer me quickly!"

In Yuan Cuixiao's mind, the master has always been gentle and refined, and he has never spoken to anyone so harshly before, so he stood up and stammered: "He he he...he said that I like camellias, so...so...so Restore the fallen flowers. He also said that he was destined to me, and asked me to go to the other courtyard where he lived to find him."

What Shen Zhongyuan didn't want to see the most happened.He leaned forward, supported Yuan Cuixiao's thin shoulders, stared into her eyes, and said word by word: "Peng Qi is a monster, he will be bad for girls, no matter what the reason is, you must not go to see her." Him. Even if you meet him, you have to go around. Remember?"

Yuan Cuixiao understood what he was referring to, blushed involuntarily, and murmured: "I... the student remembers."

Shen Zhongyuan quickly looked away, slowly let go, walked to the side of the cabinet, took out a blue cloak from it, handed it to her and said: "Put it on, and I will take you back."

Yuan Cuixiao responded obediently with "Oh".

The autumn wind is rustling, and the night is as cool as washing.Shen Zhongyuan led the way with a lamp, and Yuan Cuixiao followed.After walking for most of the way, there was nothing to say.Seeing that he was about to arrive at the garden, Yuan Cuixiao finally couldn't help asking: "Master, what will happen to the demon fox and the others in prison tomorrow? Are you going too?"

Shen Zhongyuan said in a strong tone: "You don't need to worry about this matter, you have your own plans as a teacher."

"Actually..." Yuan Cuixiao thought about it, "What Zhihua said may not be feasible."

Shen Zhongyuan stopped in his tracks, turned around, stared at her with a pair of clear eyes and said, "You don't have to, and you have no obligation, to take this risk."

The wind was getting stronger, Yuan Cuixiao pulled the cloak tighter, rubbed his hands, went forward, and asked: "Master, are you sure you want to see me?"

"You don't need to speak out to provoke the general." Shen Zhongyuan insisted, "In short, you can't go."

Yuan Cuixiao asked quietly: "Then, I want to know, if it's a hard fight, what are your chances of winning?"

Shen Zhongyuan's eyes flickered lightly: "Five or five, now that Ai Hu has the Lingbao Sword in his hand, and with the Zhanlu Sword in the hands of Second Brother Ding, we have the upper hand in weapons, and maybe the odds of victory will be greater."

Yuan Cuixiao was startled: "How could Bei Xia's Lingbao Saber be in Ai Hu's hands? Could it be?!"

Shen Zhongyuan replied: "Bei Xia became a monk in Daxiangguo Temple a few days ago, and Ai Hu is his adopted son, so he passed on the weapon to him."

Yuan Cuixiao felt relieved, and then felt a little annoyed: Ouyang fat fat, you are so cruel...I left a precious knife for Ai Hu, why don't you remember to leave something good for us...

Shen Zhongyuan saw that her complexion was cloudy and uncertain, and he couldn't help being suspicious: "You and Brother Ouyang, don't you have some relationship?"

"Ah?" Yuan Cuixiao came back to his senses, and didn't want to talk about Pan Pan's life experience, so he said, "You helped me out of Bawangzhuang that day, and I fled all the way to Wangxianqiao. When I met pursuers, it was Ouyang Chun who rescued me me."

Shen Zhongyuan sighed: "Because of this, you can no longer live the days of being hunted down and coerced by others."

Yuan Cuixiao said sincerely: "Master's kindness is appreciated by the students. But..." She changed the subject and said calmly, "I don't care about the lives of those people in Shajiazhuang; I don't even care about the safety of Zhihua and Aihu. Put it aside. It's just that I don't want Ding Zhaohui to have anything to do. Master, you understand."

With mixed feelings in Shen Zhongyuan's heart, he turned around and continued walking: "Don't worry. I won't let him have trouble."

Yuan Cuixiao followed silently, and the two entered the garden without saying a word.

Approaching the Chuihua Gate, Yuan Cuixiao took off his cloak, handed it back to Shen Zhongyuan and said: "Master, don't send it any more." After saying that, he walked towards the inner courtyard from his side, unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, his sleeves were caught behind him Hold on, she stopped and looked back, surprised and said, "Master?"

Shen Zhongyuan earnestly said: "I beg you. Stay in the garden tomorrow and don't go anywhere, will it work?"

Yuan Cuixiao gave a vague "Mm", and said with a flick of his sleeves, "It's getting late, Master, please come back quickly."
