Chapter 958: The Long Night (4)

Cui Ruoyu suddenly said: "Yes, ask my brother, how did I forget about it." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThen we'll wake up my brother. Ask him why he did it. ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask him." I hope he won't be stubborn, or I'll be hard. I'm afraid you'll be distressed. ”

Cui Ruoyu gritted her teeth and said: "Although you ask, please don't hurt his life, and don't be too cruel to him, my brother has never suffered from flesh and skin since he was a child." ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Thank you for understanding the righteousness, he has not suffered from flesh and skin, then it will be easy to do." I'm sure he'll tell the truth soon. ”

Cui Ruoyu stood up and limped to the side of the curtain, Wang Yuan saw that she was walking in pain, frowned and asked, "Are you injured?" The moment I fell off the horse just now was not light, did I hurt my muscles and bones? ”

Cui Ruoyu's heart warmed, and tears flowed down uncontrollably. One night, I finally heard Wang Yuan's warm words. She did have unbearable pain in her body, and she fell down very badly immediately, and then she was pulled off the horse by Cui Yaozu and fell again, and half of her body was extremely painful.

Wang Yuan got up and stepped forward quickly, grabbed Cui Ruoyu, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that the injury is not light, I'll take a look." ”

Cui Ruoyu hurriedly said: "It's okay." ”

Wang Yuan stretched out his hand, picked her up horizontally, walked to the table, pushed away the things on the table, and let her lie on it.

Cui Ruoying was ashamed and said repeatedly: "Don't worry about me, I'm fine." ”

Wang Yuan said in a low voice: "Don't move, if you hurt your bones and don't heal them in time, you will grow short legs in the future." ”

Cui Ruoyu was startled, the long and short feet are equally terrible with the Luo circle legs, in order not to become a Luo circle leg, she agreed to sit in Wang Yuan's arms and ride together, but now in order not to become a long and short foot, she can only let Wang Yuan check her body for herself.

"Offended." Wang Yuan spoke in a low voice, and reached out to lift Cui Ruoyu's long skirt, revealing her long legs in silk pants. Cui Ruoyu was so ashamed that she almost couldn't breathe, and when she was about to struggle, she felt a cold on her legs, and Wang Yuan had already lifted her silk pants up until she reached the root of her legs.

Cui Ruoyu didn't know what to do, her face was almost dripping blood, and when she was hesitating and uneasy, she heard Wang Yuan say: "It's quite serious, you can see for yourself." ”

Cui Ruoyu got up and looked at her lap, but saw that the color of her snow-white left leg was very eye-catching. The snow-white and crystalline skin has an extra dark blue, which makes people feel frightened.

"Ah, this ...... What can I do? Cui Ruoyu had forgotten her shyness and turned into frightened.

"Don't move, I'll see if I hurt my bones." Wang Yuan gently stretched out his hand and pressed lightly on Cui Ruoyu's snow-white slender thighs, and asked Cui Ruoyu if it hurt while pressing. Cui Ruoyu answered Wang Yuan's question with a mosquito humming, her face hot and blushing. Finally, Wang Yuan withdrew his hand.

"Luckily, the bones didn't hurt, they just broke the skin. That's it. I'll give you some medicine and rub it to evacuate the blood stasis. This will leave no scarring after recovery in the future. ”

Wang Yuan took out the bruise medicine he carried with him from his arms, poured out some of the bruises on Cui Ruoyu's legs, pressed them with his palms and slowly rubbed them. Cui Ruoyu's body was tightened, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a place to get in. However, seeing Wang Yuan's calm face, like a righteous gentleman, he blamed himself in his heart: "He just helped me apply medicine, but what am I thinking?" People are upright and gentlemen, but I ....... ”

The upright gentleman rubbed his palm on Cui Ruoyu's soft and elastic satin-like skin with his palm, but in fact, his heart was already stirring. It is impossible to touch the beautiful Miss Cui's thigh like this, and not think about it in her heart, let alone a person like Wang Yuan, who is not as guarded as a jade. If it weren't for the fact that it was really inappropriate at this moment, Wang Yuan suspected that he might not be able to help but do something.

The cabin was silent, and there was a gentle sound of water waves outside, and neither of them dared to look at each other, nor did they dare not speak, and their breathing became rapid and strange. The scene was extremely ambiguous and embarrassing at one point. Finally, Wang Yuan took his palm away from Cui Ruoyu's thigh with great perseverance, and carefully put down Cui Ruoyu's silk pants to cover her snow-white slender legs.

Wang Yuan swallowed and foamed at the mouth and said hoarsely: "Okay, the blood has dispersed a lot." ”

Cui Ruoyu exhaled a long breath, feeling that the place where she fell was slightly hot, and she didn't know if it was the effect of the drug or the residual temperature of Wang Yuan's palm. But it was true that the pain was much less, and the medicine did work.

Seeing that Wang Yuan's face was red and his forehead was slightly sweaty, Cui Ruoyu said in a low voice: "Thank you." ”

Wang Yuan said in a deep voice: "Rub it like this a few times, and then take some Sanqi pills, and you will soon return to normal." There will be no bruises in the future. My wound medicine is a special trauma medicine, which is very effective. ”

Cui Ruoyu nodded and said, "Well, I know." ”

Wang Yuan's eyes glanced at Cui Ruoyu's upper body. Swallowing and spitting, he said, "Do you have any pain other than your legs?" ”

Cui Ruoyu was startled, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no." ”

Wang Yuan Zhengse said: "Don't lie to me, your ribs are very easy to break, and you don't necessarily know if they are broken." That's very serious, and it's going to be a chicken breast hunchback. ”

Cui Ruoyu covered her clothes and said, "It really doesn't hurt, I'm telling the truth, it's just the pain of falling my arms and legs." ”

Wang Yuan sighed regretfully, handed over the medicine and said, "You take this medicine, and you can wipe it wherever it hurts." It's not inconvenient for me to wipe it for you. ”

Cui Ruoying muttered in her heart: "Is it inconvenient for you to say it now?" You've been touching my thighs for a long time. ”

Wang Yuan picked up Cui Ruoyu sideways and walked behind the curtain to put her down, and thoughtfully put two pillows, and after getting up, he waved up the curtain to isolate Cui Ruoyu inside, and then slowly walked to Cui Yaozu who was lying on the ground.

Cui Yaozu was unconscious, but Wang Yuan knew that he was fine, so he picked up a kettle from the table and poured cold water on Cui Yaozu's face. Under the stimulation of the cold water, Cui Yaozu slowly woke up and turned around.

Cui Yaozu opened his eyes, but before he could figure out the situation, the shaking green mang in front of him quickly reminded him of the situation before he passed out.

"Where is this? What do you want to do, don't kill me. Cui Yaozu shouted repeatedly.

"Shut up and don't make noise. From now on, you can only answer my questions, and if you say one more word, I will cut you with a sword. Wang Yuan shouted coldly. With a wave of his hand, the broken sword split a chair in half, and collapsed to the side.

Cui Yaozu's face turned pale with fright, and he wanted to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but suddenly remembered that he couldn't talk much, so he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand and nodded repeatedly.

"Very good, you know each other very well. I don't want to kill you either, but you have to answer my questions truthfully. But there is a lie, today next year will be your death day. ”

Cui Yaozu has been a person living in a honey pot since he was a child, and he is happy to do things that bully people, but he has never encountered such danger. At this moment, he was actually so frightened that his soul was gone, if it weren't for Wang Yuan's gentle tone, I'm afraid he would have to pee his pants.

"Uh-huh." Cui Yaozu nodded violently, saying that he would definitely explain truthfully.

Wang Yuan nodded and asked, "First question, how did you know my identity?" ”

Cui Yaozu put down the hand on his mouth and said in a trembling voice: "It was my second uncle and third uncle who told me, I didn't know that you were Wang Xiangguo." Don't kill me, spare your life. ”

"How did your second and third uncles find out my identity?"

“…… It was Master Liu who recognized your identity and said that the sword you were wearing and the horse you were riding did not match your identity, which aroused their suspicions. Afterward...... Later......"

"What are you spitting? Say it. Wang Yuan shouted.

"I said, I said, later Chuzhou Taishou Chen Bangyan rushed to Yangzhou, and he proved your identity, so he determined that you were Wang Xiangguo." Cui Yaozu said busily.

Wang Yuan suddenly realized that the problem was himself. The sword and the war horse are indeed inconsistent with their identities, but they are really inseparable from these two things, but they didn't expect the Cui family to be thoughtful, and they suddenly saw the flaws. No wonder that on the night when he first arrived at Cui's house that day, Master Liu tried for a long time without saying a word. It seems that from the first sight of the meeting, he aroused their suspicions.

But in fact, even if there are no flaws in the equipment, it is difficult to hide your identity. That Chuzhou Taishou Chen Bangyan seemed to be a member of the Cui family, and as soon as he came to prove it, his identity was actually unreserved.

"Okay, second question. I, Wang Yuan, have no grudges with you, I came to Yangzhou to help you defend the city, why did your Cui family kill me? Wang Yuan asked.

Cui Yaozu scratched his head and was silent, Wang Yuan said: "What, do you want to die?" It's easy, too. ”

Cui Yaozu raised his head and stared at Wang Yuan and said, "That's it, I can't care about anything now, so I just tell you everything." Wang Xiangguo, there is something for you to know, Your Majesty gave me two decrees to the Cui family more than two months ago. The first decree was to lift the confinement of the previous dynasty on my Cui family, and to grant my grandfather the official position of Jiangnan Provincial Inspector and Hangzhou Assassin. My father was also awarded the official position of Yangzhou Driver. Your Majesty asked my Cui family to join forces with the Jiangnan clan to raise troops and horses to go north to help him quell the rebellion and stabilize the throne. The second will is that Your Majesty wants to marry my Cui family and accept my sister Ruoyu as a concubine. These two holy decrees are the grace of my Cui family, my Cui family has lived in the southeast for decades, this is a great opportunity for the Cui family to rise. ”

Wang Yuan sneered: "Then what does this have to do with me?" ”

"Wang Xiangguo, isn't he pretending to be confused? Who in the world doesn't know that you and Your Majesty are not on good terms? I'm afraid that the new emperor's accession to the throne is not what you Wang Xiangguo wants. Moreover, you Wang Xiangguo has heavy troops in your hands, and you are not subject to His Majesty's dispatch, you are a rebel in the eyes of the new emperor. Why did Your Majesty ask my Cui family to recruit an army to the north, it is to prevent you from rebelling. And you came to Yangzhou at this time, and we recognized your identity, you say, can my Cui family not do anything to you? Cui Yaozu shouted.

Wang Yuan sneered: "I didn't know that in the eyes of His Majesty, I was like a traitor. This is also the original words of His Majesty's will? ”

Cui Yaozu shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, although I didn't say such a thing on the two clear decrees, I heard that there is a secret decree for grandpa." I haven't seen anything written in the secret decree, if you want to know, just ask my grandfather. ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will ask your grandfather." So the plan to kill me was decided by your Cui family after joint consultation, right? ”

Cui Yaozu was stunned, shook his head and said, "That's not it, it was decided by the second and third uncles and me together." My grandfather and daddy are not in favor of killing you, they feel the need to wait and see the situation. The second and third uncles and I felt that this was a good opportunity to make a great contribution to His Majesty, and we could not miss this wonderful opportunity. So this matter is decided by us in private. It just so happened that you moved to live in Yanghua Building, and I also proposed the plan to set fire to you. ”

Wang Yuan sneered: "You mean, all this has nothing to do with your grandfather and your father? Didn't I move to Yanghualou as a step you set in advance to get rid of me? ”

Cui Yaozu shouted: "Of course it has nothing to do with my grandfather and father? My grandfather is always confused, but he still has to wait and see such a good opportunity, and I don't know what he thinks. As for your move to Yanghualou, it wasn't a step, but that you and my sister-in-law were too close, and a blind person could see that my sister-in-law was interested in you. My sister-in-law is going to be a concubine in the future, whether our Cui family will be able to take charge of the court in the future, this is a key move, how can she let her mess with you? So I can only let you move out and cut off the relationship between you. ”

Wang Yuan nodded suddenly, Cui Yaozu's confession seemed to be credible, which was confirmed by Cui Ruoyu's words just now. From this point of view, it is indeed possible that tonight's incident is just the private actions of Cui Yaozu and Cui Yuanping and Cui Yuanrong. In this way, the situation has eased a lot. The head of the Cui family did not instruct him to do something to himself, so things were not out of control.

"Wang Xiangguo, everything I know has been said, and it is all the truth. You're not going to kill me this time, are you? You let me go, I promise to let you leave Yangzhou City safely. If you kill me, it won't do you any good, and if you kill me, my grandfather won't let you leave Yangzhou City alive. Cui Yaozu said in a deep voice.

Wang Yuan said: "How do I know that what you say is the truth, how do I know that you are not telling the truth?" I almost lost my life tonight, how can I trust your promise? Anyway, I can't escape, so I might as well slash you with a sword and pull a cushion on my back when I die. ”

Cui Yaozu was startled, and swore an oath: "God, what I say is true, if it is false, I will tell my Cui family to cut off children and grandchildren, and I will be a slave from generation to generation." ”

Wang Yuan laughed secretly in his heart, this Cui Yaozu really didn't know how to learn, and he couldn't make a poisonous oath. Since you have cut off your children and grandchildren, how can you be slaves from generation to generation? It's just inconsistent.

"Brother, I'm so disappointed in you." Cui Ruoyu's voice sounded softly. Cui Yaozu looked at the sound in astonishment, and he saw Cui Ruoyu slowly walking out from behind the curtain of the ship hall.

Cui Yaozu was surprised: "Sister, why are you here?" ”

Cui Ruoyu said coldly: "Wang Gongzi and I brought you here, and you have been unconscious just now. ”

Cui Yaozu said happily: "That's good, you quickly plead with Wang Xiangguo and ask him not to kill me." Aren't you on good terms with him? Brother will not object to you anymore, if you follow him, my brother will definitely not say anything more. Wang Xiangguo, if you accept my sister-in-law, we will also be relatives, you can't kill your brother-in-law. ”

Cui Ruoyu blushed and scolded: "Phew, what are you talking nonsense? Stop, if you say one more thing, I'm going to kill you. ”

Cui Yaozu waved his hand and said, "Okay, I won't say it, are you shy?" I don't say it's just. It is said that marrying Wang Xiangguo is also good, and he is also worthy of our Cui family. Sister, quickly plead for my brother. We're all a family, you can't die without help. ”

"Still talking nonsense? You are still the future head of my Cui family, and your actions just now can disgrace my Cui family's face. Cui Ruoyu's face turned pale, and she reprimanded in a coquettish voice. Wang Gongzi, you can do whatever you like with him, this person is not my brother, I don't know him. ”

Cui Yaozu was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Sister, how can you be like this, we are brothers and sisters." ”

Cui Ruoyu turned around and didn't answer, Cui Yaozu hurriedly arched his hand towards Wang Yuan and said, "Wang Xiangguo, don't listen to my sister-in-law's angry words, you can't poison me." It's okay if you want to marry my sister, but if you kill me, you will definitely not be able to do so, and my grandfather will tear you alive. You'll have to think twice. ”

Wang Yuan frowned, got up and raised his hand to slap Cui Yaozu's neck, Cui Yaozu's eyes rolled up, and he fell to the ground softly again, unconscious.

"You...... What did you do to him? Cui Ruoyu heard the sound of Cui Yaozu falling to the ground, turned her head and asked in surprise.

"Your brother is so annoying, let him sleep for a while, I will be angry when I listen to him, and I can't suppress my anger and cut him with a sword. That would be a breach of the promise you made not to kill the Cui family. Wang Yuan smiled bitterly.

Cui Ruoyu said softly: "Thank you, he is my brother after all, although I hate him for talking nonsense, but I can't really let you kill him." If you want to kill him, I will have to die. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "How can I be willing to let you die." ”

Cui Ruoyu looked at Wang Yuan in astonishment, her face flushed. Wang Yuan is already nakedly teasing himself. What my brother said just now was already very explicit, could it be that he also had an intention for himself in his heart? If he really intends to marry him, will he agree or not? He seems to be separated from himself, and he himself said that there are a lot of beautiful wives and concubines in the family, and I am afraid that it is not attractive in his eyes. Will grandpa daddy agree to this? I'm afraid it's difficult, after all, he already has so many wives and concubines, and the eldest lady of my Cui family is going to be a concubine for him? Grandpa is afraid that he will definitely not be.

Cui Ruoyu's mind was surging, and she thought about it for a moment and didn't know how many questions. The more I thought about it, the more I didn't dare to look up at Wang Yuan. I hope that Wang Yuan will say more of these rude words, but I am worried that Wang Yuan will say these words, and my heart is full of contradictions. However, when she raised her eyes and peeked at Wang Yuan, she found that Wang Yuan didn't care about herself at all, and at the moment he was sitting on the chair with a frown, not knowing what he was thinking.

Cui Ruoyu secretly scolded herself for being cranky, and people were just a joke, so she struggled for a long time. Is there less of a joke about him these days? It can be seen that he is just a person who loves nonsense but has no heart. Thinking about it like this, although I was relieved in my heart, I also had this indescribable faint loss.

"Wang Gongzi, what are you going to do now?" Cui Ruoyu froze and asked softly.

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "If your brother's words are true, then tonight's incident was done by your second and third uncles and your brother to hide from your grandfather." If that's the case, I'm afraid I'll need to meet your grandfather. Anyway, things have come to such a point that everyone simply opened up to talk. Just ......"

Wang Yuan was silent. Cui Ruoyu said: "Are you worried that my grandfather will be unfavorable to you?" Because of this incident, the agreement between our Cui family and His Majesty is known to you, are you afraid that my grandfather will simply attack you? ”

Wang Yuan smacked his lips and said, "I can't be unguarded." There is already a tacit understanding between your Cui family and Your Majesty, so it is extremely dangerous for me to appear at this moment. Especially after the matter between your Cui family and Your Majesty is known to me, I can't tolerate it. ”

Cui Ruoyu was silent, and she was speechless to refute. Indeed, as Wang Yuan said, a deal was reached between the Cui family and His Majesty, and the content of this deal may be the Cui family's full assistance to the new emperor in exchange for the Cui family's return to the court in the future and the release of the previous dynasty's confinement. Then the full assistance of the new emperor is bound to be the enemy of Wang Yuan, because Wang Yuan is the enemy in the eyes of His Majesty. In this case, it may not be impossible for grandpa to simply kill Wang Yuan.

"But...... This matter has to be resolved, and I can't hide here. It may be safe for the time being, but sooner or later it will be revealed. Moreover, tomorrow the rebels will arrive in Yangzhou, and a bloody battle is coming. At this time, if we are still fighting internally and cannot cooperate, I am afraid that a catastrophe will come, affecting tens of millions of people in the southeast. Wang Yuan frowned, and his heart was very worried.

Cui Ruoyu took a breath and said in a low voice: "You're right, this matter must be resolved tonight." I don't think my grandpa would want that serious to happen, and I'm sure my grandpa won't do anything to you. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Can you guarantee it?" ”

Cui Ruoyu said softly: "I don't have any reason to convince you, I just trust my grandfather." I know what kind of man my grandfather was. My grandfather wasn't the kind of person who didn't care about the big picture. Besides, as you just heard, the masterminds of this incident are my second and third uncles and my brother. They did this ridiculous thing without my grandfather and my father. ”

Wang Yuan smiled silently.

Cui Ruoyu said: "I know my words are not convincing, but I can use my life as a guarantee. If my grandfather is not good for you, you have three long and two short, and I will accompany you to die. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Cui Ruoyu slowly pulled out a snowy dagger from her waist and said softly: "I coerce them with my own life, if they dare to disadvantage you, I will kill myself and apologize to you." In the next life, I will be a cow and a horse, and I will continue to pay your debts. I just want you to understand one thing, I believe that a reconciliation can be reached between my grandfather and you, and this matter can be properly resolved tonight. ”

Wang Yuan looked at Cui Ruoyu in a daze, and the thoughts in his heart fluctuated. The Cui family, at present, the one she can trust is Cui Ruoyu, this woman has proved that she and the Cui family are not all the way, and now she proposes such a method in order to dispel her doubts, and does not hesitate to use her life as a guarantee, obviously wanting to solve tonight's dispute. This is also the problem that Wang Yuan is most eager to solve at present.

Of course, he can coerce Cui Yaozu to leave, but what about Yangzhou City? Tens of millions of people in the southeast, what about a large piece of land? Moreover, if tonight's matter cannot be resolved, then in fact, after he leaves, he will push the Cui family and the Jiangnan clan into Li Mao's arms, which also goes against his original intention of wanting to contact the Southeast Hao clan all along, hoping to get their support. Although the current situation is not the best time, if you don't take the risk at this time, pat your ass and leave, then you will never be able to reach an understanding with the Cui family and the Jiangnan Hao family.

"Miss Ruoyu, you don't need to guarantee your life, I decided to go and see your grandfather. Tonight's matter has to be resolved. No matter how it ends, I can't back down, because tonight is not just a matter of life and death for me personally, but a critical time for the big picture. I'm sure your grandfather won't be ignorant of the situation, and I'm sure he won't cause the situation to collapse and let the rebels entrench themselves in the south of the Yangtze River in order to kill me. I had to take this risk. Wang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Cui Ruoyu's beautiful eyes were deeply fixed on Wang Yuan's face, and she smiled and said: "Sure enough, you are a big hero and a hero, until this time, I really believe that you are the legendary Wang Yuan." With such a mind, such a bearing, and such a calm face of danger, who else in the world can be like you. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "If you praise me like this, I will be proud." Miss Cui is also very good, she is beautiful and kind-hearted and understands righteousness, and she is also a rare strange woman in the world. I also admire it a lot. ”

Cui Ruoyu blushed and said, "I think I'm just an ordinary woman, but fortunately, I still know what is right and wrong." Wang Gongzi, no matter what you think, anyway, what I just said counts, and I will definitely not let grandpa and daddy treat them against you. I also believe that they will not be so reckless about the big picture, and I believe in my grandfather's wisdom and vision. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "Okay, then what are we waiting for?" It's already four watches, let's go see your grandfather, dead or alive, it's tonight. ”
