Chapter 115: Little Demon's Phantom Whirlwind Claw (Two Chapters in One)

"Wangxing, you are no longer a member of the Cui family, but what about your mother? She is still in Luzhou." asked Niuqiu.

A trace of sadness flashed across Shen Wangxing's eyes: "I want to quietly take my mother out, but I'm worried that she won't want to go with me. She's a confused person."

Shen Guanyue raised his eyebrows at Niu Qiu. Is this even necessary to ask?

Just look at Shen Wangxing. Her husband left for more than ten years, and she has been alone at home. Not only has she endured the contempt from her sisters-in-law, but she has also had to raise a illegitimate son for her husband. Even so, she was able to raise her son to be naive and stupid, and even when he was about to die, he still thought his father was the best in the world.

If she said she was not confused, no one would believe it.

Zhao Shiqing said: "Don't worry, let's take it one step at a time."

The most urgent task is to bring down Cui Rong, this corrupt official, in an open, legal and reasonable manner.

Of course Zhao Shiqing could take Cui Rong's head in the middle of the night (her martial arts skills were mediocre, but there were experts among Zhen Wuduo's guards), but she couldn't do that.

Because this is Liangdi, under the rule of my eldest brother, a county magistrate was killed for no reason. This is not justice, this is the murder of an imperial official. This not only causes trouble for my eldest brother, but also whitewashes the corrupt official.

She wanted to make Cui Rong's deeds known to the world, and she wanted to redress the injustices of those souls who died in vain because of Cui Rong's abetment.

Zhao Shiqing suddenly missed Xiao Zhen a little. Xiao Zhen could write and paint. She once said that she wanted a master like him.

If Xiao Zhen were still alive, he would surely be able to write about Cui Rong's evil deeds with his brilliant writing skills.

Miss Zhao Er knew a lot of words and had read many books, but it was a pity that she had only read books and had no literary talent.

But
Zhao Shiqing's eyes swept around and finally locked onto Shen Guanyue's face.

Shen Guanyue is so beautiful and pleasing to the eyes.

People often say that a man of both talent and beauty is a perfect match. After all, Shen Guanyue is Xiao Zhen's younger brother, and was taught by Prince Consort Xiao. Maybe he can also have some literary talent?

Half an hour later, Zhao Shiqing was full of praise for himself.

"Who is the one who has the foresight to recognize the pearl? Of course it's me."

Shen Guanyue can not only write beautiful characters, but also write beautiful articles.

Zhao Shiqing tilted his head and looked at Shen Guanyue again. Are all the people in the capital blind? Don't they see such a handsome and talented young man? No, he is both talented and beautiful?

Why do people say Shen Guanyue is a waste?
This is not a waste material at all. In time, it will become a pillar of society.

As the second lady of the Prince of Liang's Mansion, during every festival, there would be so-called celebrities and talented people sending letters to the palace. These so-called letters meant sending articles and poems that they thought were well written to the Prince of Liang's Mansion. If they were lucky enough to be noticed by the Prince of Liang, they would be invited to the palace to meet him, and they would become famous from then on.

Therefore, every time he returned to the palace, Prince Liang would ask his two daughters to read these articles with him.

For the daughters of princes, the best marriage is to marry a talented man with great ambitions, and then train him to become the right-hand man of his father and brother.

Even if you don't enter the official career, it doesn't matter. You can write books and teach people.

Such a marriage would not give rise to gossip or arouse the emperor's suspicion.

So every time, the old King Liang would ask his two daughters: "Are there any of these articles that catch your eye?"

Of course, it was mainly for Zhao Yunnuan to see. Zhao Shiqing was young, so she watched it with her sister.

Although she is not a bookworm, she has read a lot and can easily tell the quality of these articles in her eyes.

Now, she felt that Shen Guanyue, who was not even thirteen years old, was in no way inferior to those so-called talents.

Zhao Shiqing was already certain that Shen Guanyue was hiding his abilities.

In the capital, in the Princess's Mansion, under the Emperor's nose, it is not easy for a child of twelve or thirteen to hide his incompetence. He must have assistance and cooperation from others.

Xiao Zhen?

Xiao Zhen looks sinister (someone burst into tears), but it doesn't seem like he is the one who helps Shen Guanyue hide his shortcomings.

Prince Consort Xiao?
Whenever Zhao Shiqing thought of the interaction between Prince Consort Xiao and Princess Jiayi, she felt full and fed up with dog food.

So, Prince Consort Xiao doesn’t look like him either.

Could it be Shen Guanyue’s own one-man show?

Zhao Shiqing was stunned. If this was true, Xiao Yueyue was much smarter than her.

Miss Zhao was silent.
Before long, Shen Guanyue's article was copied many times, with large characters on large papers, and posted all over the streets and alleys of the county.

Inside the government office, the long-servant A Lei ran in in a panic: "Master, this is bad, look at this!"

The big-character poster was presented to Cui Rong.

Cui Rong was stunned. Is this a notice? This piece of paper is four times the size of an ordinary notice. Moreover, the words on it are also very large, so large that Cui Rong can see his name at a glance.

The more he read, the more frightened he became. Before he finished reading, he tore the paper into pieces: "It's a rebellion, it's all a rebellion. Someone, check who did this! No, go and tear down all this nonsense first!"

It took the people in the yamen an entire afternoon to tear down all the big-character posters.

Cui Rong had nightmares all night, and even Aunt Wang's gentleness and kindness could not make him sleep peacefully.

The next morning, he had just finished half a bowl of green stem porridge when A Lei came to announce the death again: "Master, it's bad. Those big-character posters have been posted again."

That’s right, the big-character posters that were torn down yesterday have appeared again, and they are more dense than yesterday.

Cui Rong in the yamen didn't know that not only in Fuyun County, but also in several neighboring counties, everyone from officials in the yamen to ordinary people were talking about the same person at this moment - Cui Rong.

Yes, big-character posters have been posted in these counties, and Cui Rong has become famous.

There was one thing Cui Rong didn't know either, and that was that the students in these counties had all found ways to make money in the past two days. A big-character poster cost five cents, which was faster to make money than copying books.

Cui Rong could no longer sit still. He was wondering how these things had spread.

He thought of Wang Honghong, it must be that bitch!

He asked Are to go to Erliying to take a look, but then he called Are over again. Wang Honghong must die. As for that child, she was just a concubine who must not be seen in public. How could she be compared to Young Master Cui?
Young Master Cui was his eldest son, so he just gave him up.

Aunt Wang was very scared because she was also mentioned in the big-character poster.

The most profitable cosmetics shop under her name was the result of bribes she received.

She had bad thoughts in her mind. Something was going to happen to Cui Rong, and it was going to be a big disaster!

She wanted to pack up her belongings and run away, but then she thought of her eldest son, the Fourth Young Master Cui.

Cui Si was already the legitimate son, and Cui Rong's property belonged to him, no one would compete with him, and Cui San, that idiot, was already dead. Her wish was fulfilled, and the rest of her life would be good.

She didn't want to give up such a good day.

Looking at Cui Rong who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, Aunt Wang felt disgusted. He was such a hopeless person. She was still expecting him to get promoted and make money. Bah, he was still a seventh-rank official at such an old age, and now he couldn't even keep this official position.

But for the sake of the Fourth Young Master Cui, Aunt Wang still has to pretend to be a good wife.

"How about you go and take care of things first?"

Cui Rong said in a cold voice: "We have to make arrangements, but now we have to get rid of that bitch Wang Honghong first. The things written on this piece of waste paper all happened when she was here. If anyone is to blame for leaking it, it must be her."

Aunt Wang gritted her teeth. When she saw the big-character poster, she also thought of Wang Honghong.

Wang Honghong wants a formal status, isn’t that just dreaming?

Cui Rong did not agree.

So Wang Honghong asked Cui Rong to give her son a status, even if it was to be registered under the name of Aunt Wang.

This time, it was Aunt Wang who refused. What a joke! She didn't need a son. Did she really think she was as stupid as Mrs. Cui who raised a bastard for her husband?

Wang Honghong failed to achieve her goal and from then on she began to resent her uncle and aunt.

Cui Rong and Aunt Wang now only regretted their negligence in not getting rid of Wang Honghong in advance. Now they were betrayed by this bitch.

Are did not go alone, he also brought the Jia brothers with him.

The Jia brothers have killed people and were taken by Cui Rong to do those dirty things for him. It's because this place is too far away from Luzhou City, otherwise if Cui Rong sent the Jia brothers there, Young Master Cui would have no chance of being rescued and would have died long ago.

As soon as the three arrived at Erliying, they heard the news they least wanted to hear.

Wang Honghong and her son, along with their maids and servants, were all arrested. It was said that the person who came to arrest them was her mother.

Damn your mother’s family. All three of them knew that Wang Honghong was Aunt Wang’s niece. How could her family come to arrest her?
The three of them asked around in Erliying, and their efforts paid off as they actually found a clue.

Someone saw that the horse-drawn carriage that came to arrest people drove into Banshan Village.

If it were any other village, these three people would just rush in to look for someone.

But Banshan Village is different. Although it has the word "village" in its name, it is actually a private residence belonging to the Murong family. Murong Xiang is known as the number one martial arts master. Everyone in the Murong family, regardless of gender or age, knows martial arts. How could they just provoke them?
However, if they said that the Murong family wanted to deal with Cui Rong, the three of them would not believe it.

Cui Rong and the Murong family had no grudges in the past or today. One was in the officialdom and the other was in the underworld, and they had no intersection with each other.

The three of them came to the outside of Banshan Village, hoping to find someone to ask around, and they happened to see a dark and thin half-grown child walking out of the village.

A Lei had a simple and honest face. He walked over to greet the black boy and asked, "It's so cold, where are you going, little brother?"

The black boy raised the food box in his hand and said, "I'm going to deliver the food. Hey, why do you care where I'm going? You're being nosy."

Arei took out a few copper coins and said, "Brother, I want to ask you something."

Seeing the copper coin, the black boy's eyes lit up and he grabbed the copper coin from A Lei's hand: "What's the matter? Tell me quickly, I'm in a hurry to deliver food."

A Lei: "I have a distant cousin who came to your village to visit relatives with her child a while ago. Did you see them? My cousin is eighteen or nineteen years old, and her child is still in swaddling clothes."

The black boy laughed, "What a coincidence! The family I'm delivering food to has a young lady with a child."

As he spoke, the black boy pointed forward. Arei looked in the direction he pointed and saw a few houses in the distance.

After the black boy finished speaking, he regretted it and glared at A Lei: "I didn't say anything. If you spread rumors everywhere, I will beat you up."

A Lei sneered in his heart. You are a kid who hasn't even fully grown his hair yet. You can't control your mouth. You were fooled by a few words. You still want to beat me? Do you know who I am?

However, Arei still put on that deceptively honest face and praised the black boy a few words. The black boy hurried towards the house with the food box. Arei winked at the Jia brothers hiding behind the tree, and the three of them went in opposite directions.

Late at night, two figures sneaked into a small courtyard. A woman's scream was heard from the courtyard. Arei, who was hiding in the dark, was overjoyed. The Jia brothers succeeded, and Wang Honghong was indeed inside.

Arei let out a long breath, but the next moment, he was hit hard on the back of his head. His eyes went dark and he fell down. The black boy he had dealt with during the day quickly put him into a sack and dragged him away into the night.

After a while, the courtyard returned to peace.
When Arei woke up, he found himself tied to a chair, and there was a cat sitting on the table opposite him.

The cat was looking at him curiously.

Are looked around. There was no one, really no one, only him and the cat.

"Where are the people? Is there anyone here? Come on, let me out!"

Just as he finished speaking, the cat that was originally sitting on the table suddenly flew towards him and scratched three bloody marks on each of his left and right cheeks with lightning speed!
Arei was stunned, and when he came to his senses, his face was burning with pain.

Little Demon: [If you want to be my master, you must first taste my Phantom Cyclone Claws. ]

Of course, Arei had no idea what Xiao Yao was talking about. His confusion had turned into shock.

This cat is evil!
"You are a monster, don't come over here, don't come over here, believe it or not, I will kill you, peel off your skin and pull out your tendons!"

As Arei was talking harshly to himself, Xiao Yao got furious and flew over again, scratching a "川" character on his forehead.

The little demon was still not satisfied, so he scratched his face horizontally, vertically, diagonally, and crosswise. Finally, he jumped onto the top of Arei's head and urinated. After he finished urinating, he scratched a few times out of habit.

Arei was almost on the verge of collapse because of her series of actions. Who on earth was this person who put him in a sack and brought him here just to let the cat torture him?

Yes, the cat was still torturing him and had already started a second round of sharpening its claws on his face.

"Someone, please, please, please, please, I'll do anything, just get rid of this cat!"

Shen Wangxing finally arrived when Arei was shouting at the top of his lungs and was about to faint again.

In the dim candlelight, Are saw a familiar face.

He opened his mouth in horror: "Ghost, ghost!"

Mr. Cui!
Cui Rong had not returned to Luzhou for many years, but A Lei would go back every Chinese New Year to pay New Year's greetings to the old grandfather on Cui Rong's behalf and bring some silver back from Cui's family.

He had met Young Master Cui before. Even though it had been a year since they last met and even though Young Master Cui had grown taller, A Lei still recognized him at first sight.

Mr. Cui, the dead Mr. Cui!

First there was a wicked cat that was more evil than a goblin, and now there's a ghost. Arei suspected that at this moment, the Ox-Headed, Horse-Faced, Black and White Impermanence were on their way.

"Third Young Master, A Lei knows that you died unjustly, but A Lei didn't harm you, really. It was Aunt Wang, yes, Aunt Wang, and the master. It was the master who said that you were a disgrace if you were alive, and it would be better for you to die. It was really the master, and it had nothing to do with A Lei. Third Young Master, please let A Lei go!"

This part will be finished in the next chapter. Xiao Qingqing is going to Beijing.
