Qiao Xian remembers the rainy night when he met Cui Bu.

At that time, she had just been expelled from the sect and had nowhere to go. Suddenly, a bright light in the darkness was warm.

The lamp is the night-stayed light in the outskirts of the city. It is prepared for passers-by who have not had time to enter the city after night. A stall is set up under the lamp, which specializes in hot soup.

There are not many people, and there is one other besides the stall owner.

The man seemed to have a sick look and didn't like to move. He just sat quietly, looking at the hot soup on the table and fell into deep thought.

When the other party raised his head, he just looked into her exploratory eyes.

Through the heavy rain curtain, Qiao Xian seemed to hear the other party say, "Come a bowl of hot soup?"

So she replied ok.

Many people in the Zuo Yue bureau laughed at her for relying on Cui Wu, and some even secretly speculated that Qiao Xian had an extraordinary admiration for Cui Zunzhi.

Qiao Xian sneered at these rumors and disdained to defend them.

Cui Buqun pulled her when she was most helpless, took her by her side, taught her how to do things, and made her the Qiao Xian of Zuo Yue Bureau, rather than the traitor Qiao Xian who everyone scolded.

If Feng Xiao is Pei Jingzhe's nobleman, then Cui Buqu is Qiao Xian's nobleman. He is the kindness of knowing and the love of his master and disciple. Qiao Xian is willing to go through fire and water for Cui Buqu.

But, she also had her own necessity.

Moreover, four years ago, she did not expect that the last resort would become more and more terrifying in the days to come. Later, the development of things was no longer possible, just like a wild horse without reins, with a wild nature and moving forward, and never being able to pull it back.

She originally thought that this was a mountain road. Although it was sometimes rugged and winding, it was winding upward. Now Qiao Xian found that she was very wrong. From the beginning, this road led to the cliff. She is now standing on the edge of the cliff, and the rear road has been cut off. She cannot move forward and retreat, and is at a loss.

The abyss was opening his bloody mouth, staring at her, ready to swallow it completely.

"Miss Qiao?"

"What did you say?" Qiao Xian came to his senses and murmured.

"I said, if you have any worries and it is not convenient to tell me, why not talk to Mr. Cui? He has many ways to solve them for you." Perhaps it is because of Feng Xiao's arrogant boss, Pei Jingzhe is more gentle and patient in comparison.

Qiao Xian lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes: "If even the envoy can't solve it?"

Pei Jingzhe blinked his eyes and began to understand Cui's intention to let him come over.

"It's not too late to repair the siege."

...

Rong Qing didn't expect that what Cui Bugu said would come true so quickly.

The territory of Guanyi is like an invisible boundary. People outside have not reached in for the time being, but the enemy will try every means to make the people inside die.

On the afternoon of the afternoon when the bloody memorial was sent back, the Guanyi Courtyard welcomed a wave of four assassins.

Those assassins were good at it. If Rong Qing were alone, they would have died several times. However, Pei Jingzhe took two eagle cavalry and left three of the four assassins, and the remaining one was seriously injured and fled. He probably wouldn't have lived long.

In the evening, someone set a fire in the backyard. Taking advantage of the chaos of the fire fighting, someone poisoned the food in the kitchen, but was discovered and caught by Cui Bu.

Two consecutive incidents caused panic. Cui Buqu simply disbanded all the servants and servants from the official post, leaving only Zuo Yueju and a few people in Jiejian Mansion, and immediately became quiet.

Although Rong Qing was afraid, Cui Buqu, who was more powerful than him, was at ease. He was infected and gradually calmed down.

From day to night, Fengxiao has not returned yet, and there are no people in the mountains and seas. Pei Jingzhe gradually felt the pressure from the outside to the inside.

He had a premonition that a more severe storm was coming.

When the last cloud in the sky was completely swallowed by darkness, there were lamps but no moons on earth.

When Pei Jingzhe walked into the hall, Cui Buqu was sitting by the fire to keep warm and read a book.

He really wanted to read it instead of taking out the book to show off, because Pei Jingzhe clearly saw him turn a page and his lips slightly raised.

"Why did Mr. Cui laugh?"

Pei Jingzhe walked closer to the stove, but felt a little sweaty. He couldn't help but take a few steps back and chose a farther position to sit down.

Although it is already autumn, ordinary people don’t need a warm stove in this weather. Cui is not afraid of heat and cold, but it is more comfortable to be by the warm stove.

"I saw a small story about brothers fighting for their wives." Cui Bu went to answer his question.

Pei Jingzhe couldn't believe that Cui Budou still had the time to read leisure books. He couldn't help but ask, "Sir, my husband has been out for most of the day. When do you think he will be able to return? Will there be danger?"

Cui Bulu shook his head.

Pei Jingzhe had just let go of half of his heart when he heard the other party say, "There will be danger."

"Then why are you shaking your head?" Pei Jingzhe's mouth twitched.

Cui Buqu: "The meaning of shaking his head is that I don't know when he will be able to return, but the disaster has been gone for thousands of years, so you can comfort yourself like this."

Pei Jingzhe:...

He wanted to justify that my husband was a good person, but in this way he would fall into the other party's language trap of "a good person doesn't live long".

These two enemies have a narrow road. They don’t cheat each other when they are together, and they feel uncomfortable if they don’t sarcasm. Pei Jingzhe has long been numb.

"Sir, I have something to do. These assassins are not painful or itchy. This doesn't seem to be like the actions of the Thirteenth Floor of Yunhai. They should be more than just this method, or have I always overestimated them?"

"You didn't overestimate them." Cui Buqu finally put down the book, "because they are not from the Thirteenth Floor of Yunhai."

Pei Jingzhe hurriedly said, "What does this mean?"

Cui Buqu stretched out two fingers: "Yang Yun and Yunhai 13th floor are two groups of people."

After they came to Guangqian County, the enemy used several moves in total.

I wanted to win over Rong Qing.

Kill Huang Lue first and silence him and blame Rong Qing.

Setting up an ambush at Qixia Villa, severely hit Guan Shanhai and others, dragging Fengxiao down, and even changing Cui Buqu’s formation.

Then there are now assassinations one after another.

These tricks are sometimes predicting the enemy's initiative, which is amazing and clever, sometimes it is mediocre and inexplicable, and it can be seen that it is not the same person at all.

"Yang Yun and Xiao Lu must be just a cooperation, not a subordinate of superiors and subordinates. Yang Yun has his own plan. He will not obey Xiao Lu in everything. Xiao Lu keeps his strength and is patient, but he either does not take action or does everything. Therefore, the frequent assassination in the past should be due to Yang Yun."

"Although we are weak now, Yang Yun can't figure out our reality and not know how many tricks we have yet to use. So he is testing again and again, testing our bottom line. Once he feels that we are no longer threatened, he will come out and wipe us out, so that we have the life to come here and return to Beijing without a life."

"But Yang Yun takes action, it doesn't mean that Xiao Lu takes action. Now Yang Yun is almost in a hurry to jump over the wall, but Xiao Lu still holds his troops. He is still our biggest enemy."

Pei Jingzhe suddenly realized.

He also felt a little strange, but he couldn't tell where the weirdness was. Cui Bu said a few words and sorted out his indescribable doubts.

"So, now we have to wait for Xiao Lu to take action?"

Cui Buqun shook his head, "Xiao Lu is still watching, because Yang Yun still has the last killing move, so this time he will do his best to annihilate me here."

Pei Jingzhe's face was solemn: "Mr. Lang has not returned yet, and there is no other way to stay in the mountains and seas. The two Zuoyue Guards who come with you have also been sent out. Now there are only me, Qiao Xian, and two eagle cavalry in the courtyard. Five or six assassins can handle it. I am afraid that Yang Yun will be more than those people in his hands, and sending more than a dozen more, it will be a bit difficult."

Cui Bulu laughed: "A dozen? You look down on Yang Yun too much. He has been in Guangqian County for three years. He used the disaster food provided by the imperial court and the money from the wealthy households to support his own private soldiers. He also colluded with Xiao Lu in private, which has gained a lot of benefits. The previous assassins and fire were just small-scale temptations. Even if Yang Yun could not transfer the troops of a county, hundreds of people surrounded the courtyard and swallowed us alive!"

Pei Jingzhe's face turned paler the more he heard: "Then, I'm going to find my husband now?"

Cui Buqu smiled slightly: "I'm afraid it's too late."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Pei Jingzhe suddenly heard a muffled thunder.

From a distance, it never exploded.

This movement lasted for a few breaths, and he suddenly realized that it was not a thunder, but a movement of soldiers and horses galloping over!

There were not many thousands, but hundreds of people listening to this movement.

Hundreds of people went to the battlefield and were naturally swallowed up in an instant, but they were just surrounded by an inn and killed a few people, but they were more than enough to kill chickens and use a ox knife.

Pei Jingzhe knew that he could be considered a second-rate expert in martial arts in the world, but in the face of such heavy troops, he might not be able to escape safely, let alone take Cui Bu and Rong Qing.

Several ways to escape flashed through my mind, but were quickly rejected. Pei Jingzhe said quickly: "Mr. Cui, in my opinion, there are only two ways now. Either Qiao Xian and I protect you and rush out, or you and Yushi Rong hide in the cellar first, we will deal with them outside, and you will come out when you are out of danger."

The sound of horse hooves outside became closer and closer. Almost outside the door, his tone of voice unconsciously brought a hint of tension.

Cui Buqun said, "No, it's too cowardly and has no momentum."

Pei Jingzhe was about to go crazy, thinking that it was now at this time, it would be great to save his life, and what else would he need to be immense!

"So you have any better way?"

Cui Bugu tilted his head and thought for a while, and actually said, "How about using my peerless beauty to make them kneel down and beg for mercy?"

Pei Jingzhe:...

His expression appeared blank for a moment, and he almost suspected that the other party was Feng Xiao's disguise.

The sound of the door ringing sounded, shaking the earth in the quiet night.

Every household has closed its doors and dare not lose their lives for the slightest curiosity.

Pei Jingzhe was so anxious that his mouth was bubbling. He was about to catch Cui Bulu and Rong Qing and stuff it into the cellar before talking, but he saw Cui Bulu get up and dust off his wrinkles in the wrinkles of his clothes.

"That's what you're teasing about, that's what your oleander spirit can say. Let's go."

"Where do you go?" Pei Jingzhe asked subconsciously.

"Open the door to welcome guests."
