Chapter 6 006

Shi Qingruo definitely did not hear wrongly. When Su Mengzhen mentioned the word "safety", she intentionally emphasized the tone, as if blaming her for asking Lengxue to escort her here to avoid disaster.

This is not surprising.

Jinfengxiyu Tower has many dealings with Liushenmen, and they can even be considered good friends, but this network of relationships does not include her, an unknown person who suddenly appeared.

Su Mengzhen has his own pride. If not, he would not be able to sit on the throne to rule over everyone.

He naturally does not like this arrangement that has not been known to others.

Unfortunately, because of Lengxue's existence, he can't just drive people away.

Shi Qingruo chose to make this arrangement for his marriage with Guan Qi, and naturally considered this point, and would not let him drive her out.

Quite the contrary...

She seemed to be completely unaware of Su Mengzhen's implication, and frankly refuted: "Master Su said that I invited the ruthless chief constable to ride in the sedan chair, which is not entirely true. As the chief constable just said, he is a constable, and this place is not the suburbs of the capital, and it is not guarded in time, so we can let the people of the rivers and lakes divide the so-called Chu River and Han River. We must abide by the king's law. If someone kills people and breaks the law, we should take care of it, otherwise everyone in the capital will be in danger, what a disgrace! This has nothing to do with me." "

Besides, the chief constable can't walk, and it is much more convenient for him to handle the case in a sedan chair than to have someone carry him out again."

Just looking at the result of the previous assassination, everyone should say that the ruthless chief constable did choose a good position.

Su Mengzhen raised his eyes and saw that Leng Xue, who was standing behind with a sword, moved the corner of his mouth again.

He should have wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

Before he could speak, Shi Qingruo asked again: "Besides, did I disturb Master Su from watching the show?"

"No." Su Mengzhen answered very confidently.

His previous half-sentence of "accusation" did not affect his answer to this fact. He

should even say: "If it weren't for Miss Shi, I would definitely not be able to see this good show today."

At most, he could judge that if someone wanted to disrupt this marriage, this place would be the most appropriate, so he brought people here to be a witness.

But if Shi Qingruo hadn't disrupted the situation and caused some people to be afraid to wait any longer, he would indeed not have seen this farce today.

He didn't need to deny this.

"So now, can we talk about a deal?" Shi Qingruo asked calmly, "I think that I can sit in front of Master Su with a legitimate reason, which already represents my ability."

After saying this, Su Mengzhen couldn't help but look at the person in front of him with a more serious look.

He has always believed in one truth -

the way of doing things can be tortuous, and any means can be used to achieve the goal. (*)

Only speaking must be direct.

But now, it seems that someone is speaking more directly than him.

Shi Qingruo, who is sitting in front of him, is indeed a beauty, and a beauty that can make a madman sober up. But if beauty is only a shell, it is nothing more than that.

But she is so confident in her words at this moment. Even if she does not know martial arts, she has the confidence to negotiate a deal. With her brilliant eyes, this makes this unusually beautiful painting more irresistible.

"Why me?" Su Mengzhen asked.

Shi Qingruo changed her previous gentleness and showed a thorny and sarcastic smile. "Because I do not like people who come up and plot against me. There are countless ways to deal with heretics in the capital. Killing is the most effective, but it is also the most contemptuous way of dealing with people involved."

She continued calmly, "These people thought Guan Qi was crazy, and I don't know martial arts. Even if my identity is exposed, it won't matter much when I have accomplished my mission. But - I'm not a fool."

"The swordsman who fought with Zhu Xiaoyao wielded his sword like a dragon's roar and a phoenix's cry. If I am not mistaken, he should be Meng Kongkong, the contemporary successor of the Xiangjian Sword. The swordsman who stopped Deng Cangsheng was in a hurry to raise and lower his sword. He suddenly appeared and should have used the Shocking Soul Sword. The man holding the sword was Xi Liantian, the owner of the Xi Family Manor. Although the swordsman who was killed instantly by Guan Qi was unable to make a move, his sword came and went silently. It is called the Five Tigers Soul-Breaking Sword, and it is the most famous person who uses this set of swordsmanship, Peng Jian."

"These three people have received favors from Fang Juxia, and now they serve under the command of Fang Xiaohou together with the other five swordsmen, and are known as the Eight Sword Kings."

"The white-faced man in long robe who intercepted Guan Qi used hidden weapons and martial arts that are well-known in the martial arts world. The former is the peerless weapon Nine Heavens, Ten Earths and Nineteen Divine Needles created by the Power Gang back then, which was obtained by the corrupt official Wen Zhang, and the latter is the sword of Zhuge Shenhou's junior brother Yuan Shisanxian. Then there is no need to say more about this person's identity. He is Wen Zhang's son Wen Xue'an, the helper sent by the Prime Minister to Master Lei."

"I don't need to say much about the old woman who faced the ruthless chief constable in the end. She is the seventh master of the Liufenbantang, the Qilianshan Bean Granny, and the weapon she used was the beans thrown into the sedan."

"Master Su," Shi Qingruo paused slightly, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Young Marquis Fang, Master Lei and the Prime Minister are in collusion to take my life. I don't have many people to choose from, and Master Su is the first choice. Am I right?"

Su Mengzhen glanced sideways as if unintentionally, and exchanged glances with the man behind him.

Although he didn't say it, people who have cooperated with Su Mengzhen for many years would not fail to see the meaning of his move.

Jinfengxiyu Tower competes with Liufenbantang, and started late. There is one thing that cannot be left behind, that is intelligence.

But Bailou collects intelligence on martial artists all over the world, but only lacks this talkative Miss Shi!

What's more subtle is that they already know very little about the other party's origin, and now they know one more thing -

she doesn't know martial arts at all, but she can tell the identities and martial arts of these attackers clearly!

Su Mengzhen suppressed his surprise and showed a little more respect for Shi Qingruo on his face. "In that case, I want to hear your deal."

Shi Qingruo replied, "I want all the insiders of Jinfengxiyu Tower in Mitian League to obey my orders."

"..." Lengxue's hand holding the sword suddenly trembled.

He felt that since someone came to ask them to protect "order", they had fallen into a huge trap.

Although most of the troublemakers had criminal records, they would not return empty-handed this time, but what he heard now...

was a bit beyond the line. Is

this what he can listen to?

It should be said that this Miss Shi can become the wife of the leader of Mitian League, and she is indeed superior in courage.

And the owner of the Su building is worthy of the position of the owner of the Jinfengxiyu building. In the face of such a shocking request, his expression is still unmoved.

Su Mengzhen said, "There are not many people in this world who dare to negotiate with me, but there are some. Unfortunately, Miss Shi is neither my elder nor my brother. If you rashly ask such a question, please forgive me for asking you to go downstairs and return to the sedan chair." "

Whether it is rash or not, Master Su might as well listen to what I have to say later." Shi Qingruo calmly met the cold eyes of the person in front of her.

Since she traveled to this world, everything she saw and experienced told her that this is an absolutely cruel and real world.

But she should be thankful that she had played the game for three rounds, which was an extremely valuable asset to her.

Since she could report the identities of those who had attacked and assassinated, she also knew what she should say to continue the negotiation.

She said, "Eighteen years ago, your father, Su Zhamu, had just established Fengyu Tower. Lei Sun of Liufenbantang saw your talent and arranged a marriage for you with his daughter. The date of execution would be within a few months. But given the current situation, Liufenbantang and Jinfengxiyu Tower would have to fight to the death instead of becoming harmonious in-laws."

"Instead of trying to get the skin of a tiger, Su Louzhuo first formed an alliance with Lei Zongtang, completely eradicated Mitian League, and let the capital become a battle between you two, why not try another way?"

Su Mengzhen sneered, "You mean, you and I should join forces to get Liufenbantang out first, so as to bring this predetermined ending forward?" "

Why, isn't it possible?"

Shi Qingruo's rhetorical question came out so smoothly that even Su Mengzhen, who had always been very determined, could not help but pause.

He paused for a moment and then said, "... I suddenly feel that Lei Sun's failure to show up in person today was the worst decision he made."

Shi Qingruo nodded: "So the person sitting in front of Master Su now is me, not him. And I believe that I am more suitable to be Master Su's ally than him."

Su Mengzhen asked: "Just relying on your eloquence to instigate the ruthless chief constable to come here?"

Shi Qingruo smiled calmly: "If a person only knows how to rely on external forces, he will end up in pieces sooner or later. The waters of Bianjing are deep. If a trick is used for the second time, others will not be fooled again. Of course, I will not use this as a bargaining chip. I just want to say a few words to Master Su."

Su Mengzhen raised his hand to signal.

Shi Qingruo said, "When Jinfengxiyu Tower was first established, Liufenban Hall had already gained momentum. It has indeed risen rapidly in recent years, but if we count the foundation, it is still far behind. Moreover, I have heard that because the owner of the Tower, Su, has his own persistence in doing things, in terms of finances, Fengyu Tower is much less pleasing than Liufenban Hall."

Less pleasing is just an understatement. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that it is financially tight.

She continued, "First, I have a way to bring in a fortune. Second, if it is as planned, after dividing the Mitian League, we will face the Liufenbantang. Even if Master Su can win, it will only be a miserable victory. So why not choose an opponent who is more advantageous to you?"

Su Mengzhen: "But if, as you said, there will be a fight after we form an alliance, what do you want?"

Shi Qingruo pondered for a moment, and then answered seriously: "There are many people in the world who have abilities but can only lie dormant, so it is much better to be able to fly high overnight than to be unknown."

Su Mengzhen could hear that Shi Qingruo must have something to hide and did not tell all the truth.

But there is no doubt that this answer is her truth.

He covered his lips and coughed violently for a while, trying his best to suppress the lesions caused by the old injuries in his lungs, and saw a brand new handkerchief handed to him.

Su Mengzhen looked up.

The pair of eyes he was facing were still wrapped in a mist, making it difficult to see her intentions.

But he could clearly see that in this pair of mist, the stubborn fire in his eyes was reflected, indicating that the owner of the Jinfengxiyu Building would never make a judgment that disregarded reason.

Every word he said needed to be responsible for more people.

Shi Qingruo's unusually decisive voice came into his ears: "I wonder if Master Su is willing to bet more of the advance payment for this gamble?"

Su Mengzhen smoothed his breathing and slowly replied: "As you wish."

After getting the response he wanted most, Shi Qingruo suddenly smiled, changed his previous cautiousness, turned his head and looked at Lengxue: "Then I'll trouble Captain Leng to send me back first. I believe-"

"Master Su won't make promises casually."

...

Will he not make promises casually?

Su Mengzhen sneered, not knowing whether he should thank him. His reputation in the world has always been good, which suddenly gave him an extra choice.

But the collaborator he provoked was not a good person.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt a strange sense of familiarity when he saw the other party, as if... today was not the first time they met, and they had a relationship earlier.

Shi Qingruo's words seemed bold, but she did not break the bottom line of his tolerance. It was more like she had figured out his thoughts and came prepared.

But he searched through his memories and didn't find any clues.

He was in a daze, and he spoke a step later than the person behind him: "I think that after provoking an opponent like Miss Shi, Master Lei will be in trouble."

"Yes." Su Mengzhen said firmly.

As for whether this trouble will turn into a crisis for Jinfengxiyu Tower...

they should prepare in advance.

But now, it's not them who have a headache, but...

...

Shi Qingruo walked downstairs and saw Sikong Zhaixing and his friend with particularly striking features.

The man in the red cloak rarely showed his usual casualness, and even the action of touching his two mustaches seemed a little distracted.

But his worries seemed to be completely unnecessary for some people.

When the brighter red color jumped into his eyes, Sikong Zhaixing immediately straightened his back and went to meet it.

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but cover his forehead, lamenting in his heart that he made a bad friend.

But when he and Sikong Zhaixing looked in the same direction, even Lu Xiaofeng, who had always seen many beauties, could hardly help but feel that

at this moment, all the troubles since arriving in Bianjing were driven away by the smile of the beauty in red.

The spring breeze of Bianjing seemed to be truly warm and gentle until this moment...

And in this breeze, there was a gentle voice: "Little Bat, thank you so much for the past."

"What's there to thank me for?" Sikong Zhaixing responded so quickly, slapping Lu Xiaofeng on the shoulder, forcibly waking him up from his daze, "Although I am a thief, I haven't committed any crime in Bianjing recently, and someone has guaranteed me, so I won't be caught in jail and eat the government's food."

"And..."

"You really didn't feel weak in the legs because of entering the Six Gates?" Shi Qingruo asked jokingly.

Sikong Zhaixing didn't even think about it: "Of course not!"

...

"I really admire you. Who asked me to help you when I came out of the Six Gates?" Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes.

Sikong Zhaixing almost jumped up because of this sentence, and shook off the hand on Lu Xiaofeng's shoulder.

Du Zhongzi

saw that Shi Qingruo had ended the greetings and walked towards the place where the fight had taken place. Since she had no internal strength, she could not hear what was said. He heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing his reaction, Lu Xiaofeng wanted to sigh even more: "Do I need to remind you again? She said that you are fine. Now you should go back to arrange the marriage with the Saint of Mi Tian League."

What is the point of running around for someone else's wife?

"Isn't this something we've known for a long time?" Sikong Zhaixing smiled bitterly for a moment, then cheered up, "You heard it just now. She said she owed me a favor, and if she could get what she wanted, she would definitely repay me. That wasn't a lie." "

..." This time, it was Lu Xiaofeng who was silent.

He suddenly felt that he couldn't understand the new trend in the martial arts world.

If that's the case -

should he stay in Bianjing for a while longer?

At least...

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to ask you so much. But -" He stretched out his hand and pointed to the other end, "We've been busy for so long, we can always get a glass of Mi Tian League's wedding wine, right?"

He has always been able to cause trouble, so at this moment he also has an almost intuitive premonition that today's drama is not over yet! I have to follow and see!
