"It's you!" Xiong Yuan looked up and saw the man who came out from behind the screen and looked at him in fear, and couldn't help but be angry.

"Old bear, don't be impatient. Shen Xiu said in a moment's time, "What, do you know this person?"

This person Xiong Yuan naturally knows. His name is Hu Cheng, and he is also a man that Shi Zhong values very much. It's just that a few days ago, I was caught cheating with a beautiful maid in Zize Garden. According to the rules of Shifu, a man who cheats on a maid will cut off his hand and castrate his male roots, and at worst he will be killed. It's just that when Shi Chong was facing employment, Xiong Yuan asked people to just beat this Hu Cheng with a hundred sticks, and ordered him to make meritorious contributions.

This Hu Cheng's cultivation on weekdays is extremely outstanding in the park. He is a slave and is not allowed to be ranked. According to Xiong Yuan's opinion, this person can at least be rated as a fifth-grade monk.

Hu Cheng and Xiong Yuan are different. Xiong Yuan entered the Shifu halfway through and became a subordinate, and Hu Cheng's father was a slave of the Shi family. His father served the Shi family for two generations all his life, and was quite important, and later was given a maid by the master as a wife, thus giving birth to Hu Cheng. According to the laws of the Great Jin Dynasty, this Hu Cheng was a slave of the Shi family from birth.

"Hu Cheng, tell me what you all did last night?" Shen Xiu sat back in his seat and asked this Hu Cheng lightly.

"Poof. Hu Cheng knelt on the ground suddenly, glanced at Xiong Yuan, who was also kneeling not far away, first kowtowed a few heads, and then said: "Back to my lordship, last night my master heard that the king of Huainan was in trouble, so he summoned the people who could fight in the park and said that he wanted to enter the city to support the king of Huainan. It's just that before he entered the city, he got news from the city that the king of Huainan had been defeated and died, so he returned to Zize Garden. ”

"Is what you're saying true?"

"The little ones don't dare to deceive the adults, so what they said just now is true. ”

"Xiong Yuan, what else do you have to say?"

"Hu Cheng," Xiong Yuan shouted angrily, "You, a man who betrays the master, what kind of face do you have to survive in the world." As he said this, his body flew up, and he slashed at Hu Cheng with one palm.

This Hu Cheng was originally weak-hearted, and when he saw Xiong Yuan rushing towards him, he forgot to resist for a while.

"Bang!" With a bang, a spirit earth shield blocked the blow that Xiong Yuanzhi was bound to get.

"Xiong Yuan, you are annoyed and angry. Shen Xiu sneered and said: "Your master conspired against the king of Huainan, the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?"

Seeing that Xiong Yuan was silent, he waved his hand and motioned for Hu Cheng to go down first. Then he said slowly: "In this way, for the sake of your master's meritorious service, my lord has a lot, give your master a chance, it depends on whether your master agrees." ”

Hearing Shen Xiu's words, Xiong Yuan was like a drowning man hugging a piece of wood, and hurriedly said, "Please also make it clear!"

"I only need one thing in Shifu. ”

"No matter what it is, as long as the adults like it, Shifu will offer it with both hands. ”

"Your housewife, Cui Zhu. Oh, by the way, let your master personally send it to my house. In this way, all former debts are written off. ”

In the Azusa Garden, Shi Zhong sat motionless on the ground, his eyes were full of powerlessness and anger, and the Jingge was full of fragments of various items that had been broken by him.

The hatred of killing the father and the hatred of taking the wife. This great humiliation would one day befall his heavy head. That bastard clearly knew that if he did this, he wouldn't hold his head up in front of people in his life.

But what could he do?

That bastard dared to kill even the emperor and the king of Huainan, how could he bother to kill himself again? How could he provoke such an enemy back then?

"Father, let's go now, don't take anything with you. When we get to the CD King, assist the CD King to raise troops, and when we come back, we will cut Shen Xiu, the dog thief, with a thousand knives. Shi Chao was also angry on the side, how could he endure this shame of humiliating his mother.

"There's already a convoy of horses outside. Shi Zhong sat there paralyzed and said weakly: "It's wrong for my father." The money is something outside the body, and power is the real thing. ”

"Father, don't say these useless words. You and your mother go first, and the boy will come looking for you with his head and the sergeants will scatter them. After Shi Chao said this, without any hesitation, he turned around and walked out.

"Chao'er, you stop for me!" A beauty came in from outside the Jing Pavilion, but it wasn't Cui Zhu who was. "The Shi family is full of hundreds of people, and when you go out, you will send these hundreds of people to the butcher's knife. ”

"But Mother ......"

"Husband, this matter started because of me, and naturally I need to solve it. People are under the low eaves, how can they not bow their heads, and ask the husband to send me to the Shen Mansion. ”

"Madame!"

"Mother, no!"

The father and son of the Shi family exclaimed at the same time.

"You two rest assured, since I am married to your Shi family, I am a member of the Shi family, and I will never do anything to shame the Shi family. Shen Xiu and I are indeed old acquaintances, and he will not embarrass me. Cui Zhu's eyes flashed with absolute color, and he continued to say lightly: "I'll drag Shen Xiu over there first, Chao'er, you will lead the whole family north immediately after I leave." Xiong Yuan, the young master is still young, and I have to trouble you along the way. ”

"The master mother can rest assured that the slave will do his best to assist the young master. ”

Shi Chao heard his mother's words, and came to his mother's side with an arrow step, grabbed his mother's arm and said, "Mother don't want it." Children can't lose you. If you have children, you won't let anyone hurt you. ”

Cui Zhu looked at Shi Chao lovingly, reached out and gently stroked Shi Chao's handsome face like a knife and an axe, and suddenly, her fingers forcefully touched Shi Chao to the ground.

"Xiong Yuan, pack up your things, and take the young master away as soon as my husband and I lead the team away. My child, when your mother is not with you, you have to take care of yourself. ”

Shen Xiu hadn't experienced what it was like to have a heartbeat for a long time.

After he learned that Cui Zhu was on his way, his already calm heart beat rapidly again. For the first time in history, he was worried about what to wear.

Looking at the familiar face in the bronze mirror, he was still so handsome, but the corners of his eyes and brows added some wrinkles, and these wrinkles added to his mature and stable temperament.

Time flies, turning him from a handsome young man into a handsome uncle. Looking back, it was as if it happened yesterday. Shen Xiu is not a sad person, he doesn't feel much nostalgia. is the only one who haunts his past with Cui Zhu.

Just when he hadn't thought about what to say when he met Yiren again for a while, someone hurriedly came in and told him that the Shi family's vehicle had arrived in front of the gate of the Shen Mansion.

He glanced at himself in the bronze mirror again, exactly what he was dressed when he first saw Cui Zhu, he nodded with satisfaction, and walked out with anticipation.

He ignored Shi Zhong, the gray-faced richest man in the Great Jin Dynasty standing next to the car, and his eyes were focused on the back of the slowly opening curtain. The moment Cui Zhu got out of the car, time seemed to go back to that year, back to the suburbs of Langya at that time.

His Adam's apple moved involuntarily, and he was speechless for a moment, even though he had always been articulate.

Yiren is still so beautiful, and the ruthless time seems to be particularly merciful to her, leaving almost no trace of time on her.

At such an instant, Shen Xiu's eyes suddenly moistened, and he suddenly became nervous like the young man in his early twenties when he met Cui Zhu at the beginning of the year.

"Zhu'er, you and I finally meet again. Lord Shen, who was leaning towards the opposition, said softly with a slightly trembling voice.

"Is that sword at your waist the same one I gave you?"

"Exactly," Shen Xiu hurriedly said, "It has been by my side all these years. ”

"Can you let me see again. Cui Zhu said with a smile.

Shen Xiu immediately untied the long sword, held it in both hands, and was about to send it over in person. But looking at Cui Zhuyu's hand, a strong force had already grabbed the sword out of thin air. She looked at the scabbard quietly, and said leisurely: "How many years has it been since this farewell?"

"Twenty-eight years and seven months. ”

"It's rare for you to remember it so clearly. Cui Zhu raised his head and said lightly: "I can't remember." ”

Seeing that Shen Xiu was stunned when she heard this, she continued to say to herself: "But I can remember the day and even when my children were born, I can remember every moment of their growth since they were young, and I can remember what they like and don't like." Lord Shen, the things of the past were originally good. But things have come to such a point, I really regret how I was so young and ignorant back then, and I liked such a bottomless person as you. It is because of me, so let it end with me. Since I, Cui Zhu, have married to the Shi family, life and death are all from the Shi family. Husband, we'll see you in the next life!"

After Cui Zhu said this, he wiped the sword in his hand on his neck. A generation of red faces slowly withered and fell like this.

"Zhu'er!" Shi Zhong shouted angrily, hugging Cui Zhu's slowly falling body, tears raining down. Then he looked up at Shen Xiu who was like a lost soul viciously, suddenly reached out and gouged out one of his eyes, and shouted with blood on his face: "Shen Xiu, my Shizhong husband and wife will go first." I left this eye to see how you, a kingless and fatherless person, will be exterminated by the Nine Clans in the future!"

After Shi Zhong said this, he immediately picked up the sword that had fallen aside, and wiped it on his neck, and the couple fell down together in their arms.
