Chapter Ninety-Eight: Friends in the Rivers and Lakes

"Why don't I understand what you mean, am I old?"

"Senior brother, your IQ has dropped instantly!"

"What the hell are you talking about? Can you tell me when you sleep?"

"Senior brother, the poison needle is in hand, don't you know if you ask your friends in the rivers and lakes?"

"Uh......" Xiao Tian swallowed, "Okay, let's go, don't delay the trip."

Looking at Xiao Tian's back, Zhang Zezhen and Jin Zhen couldn't help but laugh quietly behind their backs.

"Hurry up!"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Several people continued to move forward, and Jin Yu's friends were already waiting around Liu Jun's house to meet.

"Brother Jin, long time no see!"

"Brother Ji, don't be three days, when you look at each other, you can become majestic?"

"Brother Jin, it's funny!"

"Come, senior brother, Miss Zhang, let me introduce you, these are a few of my friends in the rivers and lakes."

"This is Ji Yuxuan, who is good at swords."

"This is Liu Changqi, who is good at dark arrows."

"Needless to say, I believe you should all know that it is Duan Feng, a light skill wizard on the rivers and lakes."

"Brother Xiao, Miss Zhang, in Xia Ji Yuxuan, I have already heard of the names of the two, General Xiao is upright, and Miss Zhang is both intelligent and intelligent, which makes Ji admire."

"Brother Ji has won the award, Xiao just knows some martial arts, and hopes to seek fairness for the people of the sky."

"Thank you Brother Ji for coming to escort me, and I will do my best to repay me if I have the opportunity in the future."

"Miss Zhang is polite, this matter is very important, not only the affairs of the imperial court, but also the safety of the rivers and lakes, of course we have to come to the rescue."

"Okay, everyone, the polite words will be discussed later, the most important thing at the moment is Miss Zhang's safety and finding out Liu Jun's true purpose."

Everyone listened and nodded.

"Brother Jin, if you have any orders, you can arrange it directly!"

"Brother Ji, we were ambushed on the road, there are five people in total, one of them is good at using hidden arrows, can you show me, have you seen this poisonous needle?"

Three of Jin Yu's friends stepped forward and took a closer look.

When Liu Changqi just wanted to touch the silver needle with his hand, he was stopped by Zhang Zezhen.

"Brother Liu, slow down, this needle is poisonous."

"Thank you, Miss Zhang, for reminding me, I've been prepared." I saw him take out a small bottle of medicine from his body, and then pour the powder inside on the silver needle. After a while, the poison on the silver needle slowly turned black.

"Well, the poison has been corrupted." Liu Changqi picked up the poison needle, carefully looked at its appearance and length, and said with a very serious expression, "This is a martial arts master."

"Brother Liu, do you know this person?" Jin Yu asked curiously.

"I know, but I'm not familiar with it, this person's name is Zhang Lin, he is good at using hidden weapons, and he is very cunning, and people in the rivers and lakes don't want to have too much contact with him. But how did this Liu Jun know him?"

"No matter how we know each other, it can only mean that there must be other masters waiting for us in Liu Jun's mansion."

"Senior brother is right."

"Brother Duan is a genius and a teacher of light martial arts of various sects, do you think the few of us combined can beat these people?"

"Judging from my experience, as long as Liu Jun does not use his troops, our chances of victory are still very high, and if he uses troops privately, it will be difficult to say."

"We have Shang Fang's sword, do they dare to mess around?"

"Miss Zhang only knows one thing, but she doesn't know the other. The generals will not be subject to foreign military orders, but when it comes to the actual battle, the soldiers must obey the orders of the generals, otherwise they will be killed!"

Zhang Zezhen: ......

"Brother Duan is right, it seems that we are not fully prepared."

"Brother Xiao doesn't have to worry too much, although we are weak, but if we borrow some geographical and strategic advantages, it is not completely impossible."

"Please also ask Brother Duan for some advice."

"We're already doing it while you're cooking,

When the time comes, we'll get rid of some soldiers and suspicious characters in advance."

"Soldiers, soldiers, generals......

"General Xiao, what are you muttering?" Zhang Zezhen looked at him with a question mark on his face.

"These soldiers are heroes who have returned from the frontier, if you can not move them, try not to involve them in."

"That's right, otherwise it might cause dissatisfaction among the people of the world."

"Brothers, I have an idea."

"Brother Xiao, please speak."

"When Zhenzhen was cooking, I took Shang Fang's sword to transfer these soldiers away, and then, you went to deal with the people on the rivers and lakes."

"But......" Zhang Zezhen suddenly interrupted Xiao Tian's words.

"But what?"

"What if those people hide among the soldiers? We don't know each other, and if we misplace it, we're leaving a curse."

"Miss Zhang is right, and it is safest to hide them among the soldiers."

"That's right, so what to do?"

"Actually, Miss Zhang and General Xiao don't have to worry too much."

"What do you mean, Brother Duan?"

"Although we all know each other's names in the rivers and lakes, there are very few people who have actually met, especially me, I have always seen everyone with my disguised appearance, and basically few people know me, so our identities will not be revealed."

"So what?"

"That way, we can blend in with the soldiers, too!"

"Brother Duan is so smart, he is simply the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming." Zhang Zezhen happily praised.

"Miss Zhang, don't boast, I'm embarrassed!"

"As long as you also enter the soldiers, you will definitely be able to see who is the real soldier and who is the people in the rivers and lakes on the other side."

"Well, that's right! There is a fundamental difference between them, and we can see it at a glance."

"Okay, let's do it, let's get ready, let's get over there! Too late will raise suspicions."

"Good!"

The soldiers were divided into two ways, and Zhang Zezhen and his party soon came to Liu Jun's mansion.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw that Liu Jun was already wearing an official uniform and waiting outside.

"General Xiao, Miss Zhang, you can count it as coming, Liu has been waiting for a long time again." Although Liu Jun had a smile on his face, he was very flustered and even a little incredulous.

"There is Lao Liu Shangshu, and there is a little errand pool on the way, so I came late."

"Oh? Did something happen?"

"Someone set up an ambush, and for this, Jin Gongzi was injured and four people died here."

"What? Who has such courage to dare to move the emperor's people! Miss Zhang, are you alright?"

"I'm okay, thanks to Jin Gongzi and General Xiao, I was able to come to Liu Shangshu's Mansion safe and sound."

"Oh, oh, that's, that's good. Miss Zhang rest assured, this official will definitely report this matter to the emperor, and then arrest these murderers and bring them to justice!"

"Then it's hard Liu Shangshu!"

"Where, where, please come in!"

After entering Liu Jun's mansion, Jin Yu made an inconspicuous gesture to tell his friend that the operation could begin.

"Miss Zhang, I don't know what I need to prepare?"

"Liu Shangshu doesn't have to be polite, you should prepare, the people are ready, I don't dare to work hard for you."

"Miss Zhang is really thoughtful."

"Where's your stove?" I'll start doing it now!"

"Fourth uncle, hurry up and take Miss Zhang to the kitchen."

"Yes, sir!"

As soon as Liu Jun's words fell, a voice came from outside.

"Liu Shangshu, Chen Taiwei and other first-class officials are waiting outside the door, saying that the emperor asked them to come!"

"Huh?" Liu Jun's face was extremely ugly, but he still tried to squeeze out a smile, "

Why are you stunned? Hurry up, please!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Tian and Jin Zhen also glanced at each other, feeling a little strange.

"Liu Shangshu, what's going on?" Xiao Tian asked Liu Jun suspiciously.

"I don't know!"

After a while, a group of people walked into Liu Jun's mansion.

"Oh, my lords, why didn't you say anything before you came, I didn't prepare for this."

"Liu Shangshu, the emperor told us, you invite Miss Zhang to make a Fengfei wish, let us come over together to taste it, replenish our bodies, and serve the imperial court!"

"Oh? Yes, is it? Since it is the emperor's intention, then, let's hurry into the house and sit down."

"Go, go, go! Remember to ask Miss Zhang to do more, there are so many of us!"

"Good, good, good!"

"This kind of notice is that you won't bother General Liu, just let Jin Yu and I go and tell Miss Zhang."

Liu Junpi said with a smile: "Then there are two Laos."

Jin Yu and Xiao Tian came to the kitchen and saw Zhang Zezhen preparing things.

"Miss Zhang, today's ministers are going to come to taste this Fengfei wish, and I hope you can do more."

"Okay, today's dishes should be enough, I've prepared a lot, I'm afraid I won't try."

"Hmm. That's good."

"Is there anything we need to do?"

"It's nothing, you guys do a favor here, just wash the vegetables or something."

As soon as Xiao Tian heard that Zhang Zezhen was going to send him to cook again, he was very dissatisfied, and asked General Ben to wash the vegetables, really when I was a servant?

"Miss Zhang, don't worry, we're coming!" The golden sting was very happy.

"Do you like to be used by people so much?" Xiao Tian reproached.

"Senior brother, I really don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, the little girl is so hard, she has to prepare so many dishes, we two big men, shouldn't we help?"

"General Xiao, it's really not me who said, look at the golden son, how many men!"

Xiao Tian ignored the two, but directly picked up a bundle of vegetables and began to wash them.

The other two and the people in the room also held back their laughter.

Jin Yu quietly stepped forward, ostensibly to help Zhang Zezhen choose vegetables, but in fact asked in a low voice, "Did you invite the ministers?"

"Hmm."

Jin Yu was very surprised, and asked, "When did it happen, why don't we know?"

"I told the teacher."

Zhang Zezhen spoke concisely and to the point, mainly to avoid eyes and ears, and to say one less word if she could say one less word.

"Little girl, I didn't see it, you're pretty good."

"I'm nothing, if Brother Jin can help me wash all these dishes, then I'm going to be moved!"

"Uh, this, so much?"

"What's the problem? Brother Kim?"

"Of course there is no problem!"

"I'll leave it to you, I'll go prepare the accessories."

"Okay!" Jin Yu also began to wash vegetables helplessly.

Zhang Zezhen observed every move in the kitchen and looked for what she needed.

"Is all the food in your house here?"

Zhang Zezhen asked the little girl next to her.

"Back to the girl, it's all here, the lord said, it's the palace chef who is cooking today, so all the accessories in the house are here, and I also make up for the missing things."

"Okay, I see, I'll ask you if you need anything."

"Yes, girl!"

"What are you looking for?" Xiao Tian saw that she had been looking for something, so he came over to ask.
