After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

Another person added, with a hint of warning in his voice, "If you are dissatisfied, you can appeal to the leader. But let me be frank. The leader is quite dissatisfied with your recent performance. We are here to help you solve the Cui family's troubles, and to see with our own eyes whether you are qualified to continue to serve the leader."

Mu Fan clenched his fists, his teeth chattered, and his anger almost burst through his chest, "How dare you! The leader didn't send you here to insult me!"

However, his anger did not seem to attract anyone's attention, but instead aroused even greater laughter. "If the task was completed beautifully, we would not dare to act rashly. But you may not know that because of your unsatisfactory performance, your father has been severely punished by the leader."

"Your father's official position has been demoted three levels, and the position of Prime Minister no longer exists!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Fan was shocked. He was filled with indignation and resentment, and was speechless for a moment. He could only stare with his eyes wide open, his lips slightly opened, but no sound came out.

He slowly loosened his clenched fists and took a deep breath, "How are you going to help me carry out the leader's plan?"

The leader sat leisurely on the edge of the bed, brushing the dust off his clothes with disgust.

After the dust settled, he slowly spoke, "By assistance, we actually mean that you must follow our instructions and work closely with us."

"We have already figured out Cui Min's daily routine. When the time comes, you need to attract the attention of his guards, and we will take the opportunity to take action. As for his daughter, she is so beautiful, it would be a pity to kill her with one knife..." He raised a malicious smile at the corner of his mouth, and his intention was self-evident.

Mu Fan pursed his lips, his voice full of determination, "When will we act?"

"Tomorrow at 3:00 pm." The other party restrained his smile and said threateningly, "Cooperate well, otherwise, your whole family will be implicated."

Mu Fan remained silent and could only nod in agreement, feeling mixed emotions.

At this moment, Cui Rong watched coldly, and suddenly a silver light appeared at her fingertips, and an enemy fell silently.

This sudden change caused panic among everyone present.

The leader frowned and stood up, just as he was about to investigate what was going on, he saw another person also fall silently. He roared, "Who is this person! Who is deliberately making things mysterious!"

It was eerily quiet all around him, with only fallen bodies surrounding him and the air filled with the smell of death.

Mu Fan took the opportunity to step back a few steps. Then, the beams made a roar as if they could not bear the weight. The man looked up suddenly and saw a thick beam falling towards him.

There was no way he could escape. He used all his strength to dodge, but the beam still hit his leg hard. He screamed in pain, his face as pale as paper. Staring at the bloody wound, he urgently asked Mu Fan for help, "Quick! Come and save me! Why are you still standing there!"

"You lousy hut, I'm going to tell the leader and have him punish you severely..."

Before he could finish his words, a sharp dagger silently pierced his chest. Blood splattered, instantly dyeing the ground beneath his feet red.

He was terrified, his eyes wide open with disbelief, "You, you dare..."

Mu Fan snorted coldly, without a trace of pity in his eyes, "You are about to be buried in peace, what else can I not dare to do?"

"Who gave you the guts to threaten me with my family? Go to hell and complain!"

After saying this, Mu Fan pushed hard, and the dagger pierced deeper into the man's chest.

He drew out the dagger expressionlessly, cut off the man's finger neatly as evidence, then turned around and walked out of the house with firm steps.

In the courtyard, Cui Rongrong and Jiang Zhen stood quietly. Mu Fan said in a cold voice: "Thanks to Miss Cui's help, we got rid of those people. I have one more request, I hope Miss will fulfill it."

Cui Rongrong raised her eyebrows, and said with a hint of amusement in her tone, "Tell me about it."

Mu Fan said sincerely, "I am willing to surrender to Miss Cui wholeheartedly and tell her all the instructions and plots of the leader. I only ask Miss Cui to help me bring my family back to the Central Plains from the border."

Cui Rongrong smiled and said, "How dare you put forward such conditions? My family is held hostage by the leader. How easy is it to save them?"

"The conditions you proposed are not enough for me to take the risk."

Mu Fan bit his lower lip and knelt down in front of Cui Rongrong resolutely. "As long as Miss is willing to help, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"As long as I can do it, Miss, just give me your orders!"

Cui Rongrong's eyes flickered, as if she had a deep meaning, "Even if it's a poisonous insect from the border, are you willing?"

Mu Fan was stunned for a moment, and then he heard Cui Rong continue to say: "I know that people in the border areas are proficient in the art of raising Gu, and each has his own strengths. As the son of the prime minister, the secret technique of raising Gu that you have mastered must be extraordinary."

"As long as you are willing to reveal the secret of raising Gu, I will find a way to rescue your relatives."

In the courtyard, the only sounds are the chirping of insects in the distance and the night.

Cui Rongrong noticed the complicated look on Mu Fan's face, "Don't rush to answer, think about it slowly, and when you have figured it out, go find the owner of Luoxian Tower, Jiang."

"Remember, handle it cleanly and don't leave any traces, so as not to be caught by others."

After saying that, she and Jiang Zhen turned and left, leaving Mu Fan alone in the empty courtyard in deep thought.

As the night fell and the stars were sparse, Cui Rongrong and Jiang Zhen walked side by side. When they were about to part, Jiang Zhen stopped and looked at them with curiosity, "Miss Cui's poison skills have reached the highest level, why is she so interested in the poisonous insects in the borderland?"

“No matter how many cards you have in your hand, they never seem safe enough.”

Cui Rongrong replied calmly, with a deep look between her brows, "Poison is indeed powerful, but it is ultimately not as powerful as the Gu worm, which can control the minds of others at will, just like a puppet being pulled by a silk string, with perfect accuracy."

"Who in the world would not yearn for such a wonderful thing?" She said softly.

Jiang Zhen smiled with an ambiguous smile, but did not answer directly. Instead, he asked, "If Mu Fan is willing to cooperate, how will the young lady help him out?"

"This requires the help of the great magical power of the owner Jiang."

Cui Rongrong's eyes moved and gently fell on Jiang Zhen, as if she could see through his thoughts, "It would be too conspicuous to send the magic weapons forged by Wanqi Pavilion directly to the border. We need Master Jiang to use clever means to secretly deliver them to the army."

"Once the new weapons fall into the hands of the soldiers, they will naturally be motivated to fight and be ready to take action. The enemy troops on the border will certainly be caught off guard. I only hope that Master Jiang can take advantage of this chaos and quietly rescue Mu Fan's relatives. After all, he owes me a favor, and it's time to repay him."

Jiang Zhen drooped his eyelids slightly, hiding the complex emotions in his eyes. "Miss Cui has a long-term plan. She used me to repay a favor and easily exchanged for Mu Fan's secret skill of making Gu. It can be said that she killed two birds with one stone. If you make an enemy of Miss Cui, I am afraid that your life will not be easy in the future."
