Chapter 0538 - Cipher
Lin Sanjiu leaned in close to Star Swirl and smelled it, Star Swirl felt as if she was lying on a pile of firewood and straw, and she was wondering if she could crush the firewood and grass stacks so that Lin Shanjiu wouldn't get so close to her.
There was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door, and Lin Shanjiu immediately blew out the candle, then quickly stood up and hid, Star Swirl didn't see where he was hiding.
The two people outside the door, obviously a man and a woman, said: "The sixth lady is really miserable, since she killed the seventh lady, she has been stupid all day long, the eldest princess is still young and doesn't know how to take care of the sixth lady, and she doesn't know where she ran away." Shall we go into the firewood room and have a look?"
The man said: "Don't look at it, no matter how much the sixth lady runs, she can't run outside the palace, let's wait for tomorrow morning to eat and lure her out!"
As soon as Star Swirl heard this, he understood in his heart that this Lin Shanjiu had come to hide in the palace, otherwise he would definitely leave Fancheng to avoid the limelight when Cui Zhouping led the people to sweep.
"This thief has a bit of a brain, too!" Star Swirl said to herself.
She suddenly pressed her body the stack of firewood and straw, making a "click" sound.
The two people outside didn't go far, and the man shouted: "Who is in the firewood room? Sixth lady, is it you?"
Star Swirl didn't say anything when she heard Lin Shanjiu learn a cat meow, "Meow-".
The woman outside the door said, "It's a cat!"
Then the two of them walked away.
Star Swirl looked: "It's boring, these two people don't come in to take a look, don't you know if it's not a cat? Besides, can a cat crush firewood and grass? These two people really don't have a brain.
Lin Shanjiu waited until the people were far away, and then walked out of the shadows, he squinted his eyes and grinned and said, "Don't pretend, I know you didn't sleep!"
Star Swirl closed her eyes and said, "How do you know?"
"Who the hell are you? What about Miss Zhu?"
Star Swirl opened her eyes and sat up, "You care about others, don't you care about yourself?"
Lin Shanjiu said: "You still make me care about myself? I think you should care about yourself!"
With that, he walked over to Star Swirl and began to undress as he went, needless to say that Star Swirl knew what he was going to do.
At this time, Star Swirl was sitting in front of the woodstack with her hands and feet tied, and Lin Sanjiu took off her clothes in a few clicks.
Star Swirl teased him, "You took it off pretty quickly!"
"Less nonsense!" Lin Shanjiu reached over as he spoke, Star Swirl had already planned, as long as he touched his body, he would use the Soul Condensation Dafa to freeze him.
Unexpectedly, when Lin Shan's dove was about to touch her, the two of them heard a "bang" at the same time, and the door was slammed open, and several arrows were shot in from the window and outside the door at the same time.
Lin Shanjiu was also fast, he quickly put on his clothes and pulled Star Swirl up in front of him, he couldn't care so much about this life-threatening moment!
Star Swirl scolded, "It's useless that you're still a thief, but I didn't expect you to be a boneless man, hiding behind a woman, and it's useless for someone like you to keep it!"
Lin Shanjiu tried to fight back, but found himself stiff, and then saw Star Swirl suddenly break free from the rope and hold himself around, reversing the position of the two of them, and placing himself in front of him to fend off the arrows.
At the same time, he heard Star Swirl yell, "Stop shooting, I'm Lady Xia!"
Lin Shanjiu didn't know what happened next, the Praetorian Guards in the palace stopped shooting when they heard Star Swirl's shout, and someone shouted outside the door, "Lady Xia, please show up!"
Star Swirl dragged Lin Shanjiu out of the firewood room, and when the big guy saw it, it was indeed Mrs. Xia, but who was the man she was dragging with? Could it be that Mrs. Xia ran to the firewood room in the palace to steal the man?
"I'm here to catch this whore, and so are you, he's been hiding in the palace for so long, and no one has found out?"
Guards, look at me, I'll look at you, and finally the internal official said: "I haven't found anyone hiding in the palace, if it wasn't for the cat meow just now, we wouldn't have thought that there would be people in the palace!"
"Send someone to inform Master Shi of the Criminal Department! Just say that I have caught the flower thief!"
Soon Master Shi sent someone to take Lin Shanjiu away, and Star Swirl immediately set off to return to the front.
When he went to court the next day, Master Shi went with his head up, although he lost to Cui Zhouping in the fight, but he didn't lose in catching the thief, in fact, he also knew in his heart that catching the thief was his job, but at least he proved his worth!
Cui Zhouping was still outside and didn't come back, but presumably he also received the news.
When Wang Chunyun saw Shi Congyi's appearance, he laughed in his heart: "Master Shi, what will you say when you see Lord Cui?"
"What do you say? Do you think this Master Cui can still go to the court recently? Don't be funny! He can't attack the Central Plains in the last court, and he can't have anything to do with attacking Fang Erniang, why is he still in the court?"
really let Shi Congyi say, Cui Zhouping really didn't go to court for a while, Xiaoxia proposed to defend this place, and then attack Fang Erniang to get the entire south when the time is ripe.
King Qiansheng and others have left the scope of Baibing Village, and Bian Jia and others have been placed under house arrest in Baibing Village.
The five tigers of the Bian family who are under house arrest are not willing to go on like this, it is absolutely impossible to return to the southern country, the five people are locked in different rooms, and they usually don't see anyone, they want to sum up a countermeasure to escape, but how to exchange news?
These five people can't never see each other, they always have a reunion dinner together during the New Year's holidays, and Xiaoxia and Star Swirl will accompany each other during the reunion dinner.
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, this is the most solemn day except for the New Year, Bian Yuexia plans to take this opportunity to discuss the plan to get out with others, and at the same time be careful not to be discovered.
At the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner, the five tigers of the Bian family plus Xiaoxia and Star Swirl are a total of seven people, Xiaoxia must be sitting with Star Swirl, and the five tigers of the Bian family are sitting together, eating quietly, and all the chats during this period are about the weather, reminiscing about the past, and there is nothing suspicious.
Star Swirl noticed a problem, however, that the five men's left hand would occasionally tap on the tabletop, sometimes with two fingers, sometimes with one finger, and it seemed that although there was no pattern, there was only one person at each time, and there would be no two people knocking on the table at the same time.
Star Swirl later notices that each of them is doing the same thing: two fingers, then one finger, then two fingers, and the last one stops tapping the table.
Star Swirl suddenly became mischievous as she held out two fingers of her left hand and did what she saw.
Two fingers knock – one finger – two fingers – one finger.
Then she smiled and watched the crowd.
