"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Xiaoyu in a trance, Xiao Yuner asked with concern.

After hearing Xiao Yuner's voice, Xiaoyu came back to his senses.

She just held Xiao Yun'er's hand tightly, smiled softly, and said:

"No problem."

Xiaoyu looked at the rising sun and sat quietly on a chair in Liu Fufeng's tea house.

The turmoil in her heart was difficult to calm.

In almost an instant, Xiaoyu adjusted his inner state.

Her mind was full of thoughts, wondering how to bring down such a powerful force as the Cui family.

After a long time, Xiaoyu smiled and said:

“Miss Liu, I may still need you.

After saying this, Liu Fufeng smiled softly.

"As long as we can lend a helping hand to Your Highness, Fufeng will certainly help."

"After all, helping you is helping me."

……

The midday sun in late autumn makes people drowsy.

A team of Cui family guards ran quickly along Dongque Fourth Street.

Passers-by were amazed and felt in danger.

"Cui family guards? Are they here to arrest people in broad daylight?"

"I don't know. Maybe someone has committed a big crime again."

"That must be a disaster that has caused a catastrophe. He even sent out his personal guards."

There was constant whispering in the crowd, they only dared to look but did not stop to watch.

The deterrent power of Cui family’s personal guards is still very strong.

This group of guards were well-armed and marched quickly until they stopped in front of a small courtyard.

"Captain, the secret guards have found that this is where the woman lives."

A man from the Royal Guard spoke respectfully to the leader.

Immediately, the leader gave an order and several guards stepped forward and kicked down the gate of the yard.

A group of people rushed into the yard in a mighty force and surrounded the yard until no one could get in or out.

This is Liu Fufeng’s courtyard.

Liu Fufeng, who was taking a nap in the house, heard the noise, rubbed his sleepy eyes, put on his outer clothes and walked out.

"Who is it?"

Liu Fufeng pushed open the door unhappily and asked with some anger.

Seeing the large group of people in the yard, Liu Fufeng was startled. He held onto the door frame weakly and said fearfully:

"You guys? What are you doing?"

Her beautiful eyes were filled with panic and fear, and her trembling and helpless voice made people feel pity for her.

"Are you Liu Fufeng?"

The leading man in the Royal Guard asked in a deep voice.

Liu Fufeng nodded fearfully.

"Take a trip with us."

The man said.

After he finished speaking, two bodyguards came forward and carried Liu Fufeng away.

Liu Fufeng was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

"Sir! I am just a weak woman and I have never done anything wrong!"

"Sir! What have I done wrong?"

She spoke anxiously and fearfully, tears streaming down her eyes, looking very touching.

The leader felt a little sympathy for her, and seeing her eyes full of tears, he reached out his hand to help her up.

"Master Cui wants to see you."

"I don't know what you have done wrong, just follow us."

After the man said this, he urged Liu Fufeng not to delay and left with his men.

Liu Fufeng followed behind the man, raised her hand to wipe her tears, and cried like a pear blossom in the rain.

She wiped her tears with a piece of silk, but a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of her mouth under the cover of the silk.

The group took Liu Fufeng away, and the yard suddenly became empty.

Xiaoyu and the other two were hiding under a small bridge not far outside the yard.

"Your Highness is as good as a god. The Cui family really came to arrest Miss Liu."

Xiao Yun'er said in a low voice and gave Xiaoyu a thumbs up.

Xiaoyu smiled slightly, looking as if everything was under control.

"Your Highness, what should we do with these people?"

Mei Shuo pointed at a dozen men in black hiding under the bridge.

These men in black were knocked unconscious by Mei Shuo last night and have just been transferred out.

Xiaoyu clenched his fists, thinking that these people were still alive, so why not throw them into the river.

No one would survive if thrown into the river. Even if there was one survivor, it would be a matter of life and death.

But her heart is extremely complicated.

Because she understood that these people could not stay.

It is true that these people are real people, but they are all Cui Yunsong's subordinates.

If he doesn't kill him, his whereabouts will be exposed and his plan will be ruined.

"I don't want to kill anyone, but someone wants to kill me."

Xiaoyu said softly, with a ruthless heart, he raised his hand and picked up the sword at Mei Shuo's waist.

Her eyes were full of coldness, and she raised her hand and stabbed each of these people with a sword to ensure that they would all die.

This was the first time Tang Xiaoyu killed someone since he came here.

How can you survive here without blood on your hands?

Xiaoyu understood that he couldn't be soft-hearted.

Every step on the road to Shu is a matter of life and death.

If any of these people were left alive, his plan might be ruined.

She understood that she held the power that everyone coveted, and she must not be soft-hearted.

In order to survive in this world that is not as beautiful as in the books,

In order to live well here with my brother,

She has to get used to it.

But as a modern person, it is really hard for Xiaoyu to remain calm after watching so many people being killed with just a wave of his hand.

She just kept telling herself that if she didn't kill them, she would die.

She thought to herself that she had never seemed to be a good person.

Fortunately, she also disdains to be a good person.

The sword fell, and Xiaoyu ordered Mei Shuo to help him push these men in black into the river.

Xiao Yun'er also rushed to help and cleaned up the bloodstains under the bridge.

She watched Xiaoyu raise his sword and then slash it down, her eyes dark and unclear.

Then, the three of them left together and secretly took a detour back to the inn.

"Your Highness, Miss Liu has been taken away now."

"What should we do next?"

Xiao Yun'er asked in a low voice, with a probing look in her eyes.

In the room of the inn, the three of them sat together and discussed in low voices.

"A lot of the information Liu Fufeng provided was very useful."

"But if we want to bring down the Cui family this time, the key to breaking the impasse lies here."

Xiaoyu said this, raised her head with a smile and pointed at Mei Shuo.

Mei Shuo and Xiao Yun'er were both confused.

"I?"

Mei Shuo asked in confusion, his tone full of doubt.

"Yes."

Xiaoyu smiled mysteriously, and then patted Mei Shuo on the shoulder.

"Your identity as the son of the Mei Sect's leader is crucial to this breakthrough."

"Did your father leave you any token or a warrant from the head of the sect?"

Xiaoyu asked.

Mei Shuo nodded and then took out the jade token hanging around his neck.

"This is the jade order of the Mei Sect leader. My father gave it to me before he died."

Xiaoyu glanced at Yuling, nodded, and said, "That's easy."

"We already know that the Cui family is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is almost impossible to capture this place from the outside."

"What's more, Cui Yunsong has a strong military force, with as many as 180,000 soldiers and horses under his command."

"But, there is one thing that is very crucial, and this can be said to be Cui Yunsong's biggest flaw!"

Xiaoyu deliberately kept the audience in suspense when she said this, then picked up the tea and drank it slowly.

This made Mei Shuo very anxious.

"Madam, please tell me, tell me! I am so anxious."
