Chapter 256 The so-called great cause
"Bah, you are the bitch, you also called Miss?" Yinger, who was beside her, broke the silence of the two and shouted to Man Xiu.
"Master forgives you. The owner misunderstood. How dare Man Xiu escape? What's more, a slave can be captured even if he escapes to the edge of the sky. And if you catch it back, it will be at the disposal of the master. Manxiu doesn't want to die yet.
Zhou Xinran immediately changed his name to call her "master" as soon as he heard it, and couldn't help laughing twice. It seems that on the day of Yingchunlou, Man Xiu also called her a "bad woman" by name. Today, she was respectfully called "master", as if there was nothing happened to that day at all. Qin Manxiu, Qin Manxiu, the more you are like this, the more I can let you go?
Although Manxiu lowered his head and couldn't see Zhou Xinran's calculation at this moment, he knew that it was not a good thing with that smile. Nowadays, almost everyone treats him as a target. If he doesn't save himself, won't he really become a honeycomb?
"Master's clear appreciation, long sentences and truth."
"Hehe, isn't it? You didn't take the initiative to escape... Should it be said that you took the initiative to save it?"
Man Xiu's heart trembled even more. Did she even see Xie Bin, who she took the initiative to save? Then his kung fu seems to be really bad. If you want Uncle Yuan to know, you have to be sad.
"What? Don't you want to explain, or can't you explain?
"Master Mingjian, Manxiu Wan doesn't have the courage."
"Don't you have the courage? Ha ha! Do you believe it yourself?"
"Master Mingjian!"
"Then why didn't you hit the poison dart I turned back? Even if you don't hit him, it should be on you who was used to block the poison dart, right? But why can't I see any of you two injured, but retreat from under my eyes?
The poison dart she turned back? Man Xiu was shocked. Previously, when he saw the return of the poison dart shot by Xie Bin, he just thought that he controlled the direction of the poison dart with his willpower. Unexpectedly, it was Zhou Xinran! No wonder she sat firmly on Mount Tai at that time and was in the face of danger. It turned out that she was already confident. In any case, the assassin could not succeed, not to mention the protection of Shen Yuncheng. No wonder Mr. Shen Han couldn't avoid his deadly sword when he took action.
"Why don't you talk? Can't you say it?"
"Manxiu doesn't have the courage to save an assassin at the present; there is no reason for Manxiu himself to protect himself. He met the assassin for the first time, and there is no reason to save him from death; and he doesn't have that ability. Manxiu's so-called kung fu is learned in the barracks. Yao Tian is the captain of Manxiu, Manxiu's skill. My husband was taught by Yao Tian. If the master doesn't believe it, he can ask him. So far, we can only survive. Once admitted, the consequences are unimaginable.
"Yao Tian? Oh, I forgot him. He really taught a good apprentice that he could be so agile.
"The master praises that if you really reach out quickly, you won't be captured as a slave by the master."
"Haha! You are so fang-tooth, you haven't changed at all! Tell me, what did you talk about after you went out with him? Why don't you go with him? You know, even if you want to leave, although you will eventually be caught, if you are lucky, you can still escape for a few days. Don't you want to use these days to do what you want to do?
"When he returned to the master's words, the assassin thought that Man Xiu was the master's side, so he captured Man Xiu. But after seeing the slave character on Man Xiu, he knew that Man Xiu was useless and didn't waste much time. He left Man Xiu and left alone. Later, when he met Lord Shen, he was brought back. I really haven't had any conversation with the assassin, master Mingjian.
"Let's go on."
Man Xiu unconsciously frowned. What does it mean to use these days to do something he wants to do? Did Zhou Xinran notice something? I wanted to avoid the importance of speaking lightly, but it was enough to muddle through. Unexpectedly, she was still so persistent that she had to ask the bottom of it.
"Man Xiu doesn't want to be an escaped slave."
"Is it that simple?"
"Yes, it's that simple."
"Then why did Uncle Shen and Mr. lock you in the underground secret room? As far as I know, you are the only one who can come out of the underground room alive so far.
Wrong, and Qi Tianqing. But Man Xiu did not dare to answer like this at this time. I have to tell the truth, "It's because of Man Xiu's father. It seems that my father took some gift from the court when he left the barracks. They thought that his father was dead and left it on me, so they asked me for it. In fact, I didn't know it. Anyway, Zhou Xinran will always know, but it's better for him to take the initiative to say it now.
"Oh? I said why Dad cares about you so much. So that's it... Speaking of your father, I still have something to ask you."
As soon as he heard this, Man Xiu couldn't help but feel shocked, but he still calmed down and said slowly, "Master, please."
"You went to the barracks on Qinfeng Road, Shaanxi, to reverse Qin Wei's case?"
"Manxiu dare not."
"It seems true to be so eager to deny it. So you went to the palace to find an opportunity to reverse the case for him? ... Long live the master promised that as long as you can prove that Qin Wei is innocent, he will forgive your identity as a slave and return you a statement. On the one hand, you have to come to Zhoufu, and on the other hand, is it because of this reason?
"Master..."
"You don't need to be in a hurry to deny it. The person who visited Zhou's house day and night to touch Mr.'s organ should also be you, right? You have never been willing at all.
“......”
"Qin Wei, who used to belong to the same military camp as my father, or him, promoted my father from a soldier to the position of deputy general... But your father was killed by my father himself. You must have a lot of hatred, right?"
Man Xiu didn't know how to answer. What Zhou Xinran said was the truth. But now not denying it represents recognition, and the result of recognition is terrible.
"The owner misunderstood. How dare you think about it? But he is a slave of the master, and he is not even a person. How dare he hold a grudge?
Zhou Xinran looked at Qin Manxiu and was as respectful as him, but why did he always feel that other emotions were hidden under the surface of obedience?
"If you want to find evidence to prove that Qin Wei is innocent, the guilty person is naturally my father. Do you think that with such an opposing position, I will not let you go, so you dare not admit it, right?"
"The owner did misunderstand. I dare not do it."
"Will I not understand if you dare or not? In those years, I heard that it was your masterpiece!"
Man Xiu was shocked. Yes, in those years, there were so many pairs of eyes in Xinyuan. Who could guarantee that she was not reported to Zhou Xinran by a pair of eyes when she set fire? Although she said that it was the work of Mu Lanzhi in the court, she did not delve into it at all. It can be seen that she knew that there was no result.
"Don't worry, if you don't touch my bottom line, I won't go too far. You should thank today's emperor. I don't know what his purpose is to save your life several times. Since he wants to stay, as ministers, there is no need to go against heaven. Just be your slave obediently.
Man Xiu remembered the "Great Business" again. Maybe even Zhou Xinran didn't know it. And the only way to know is through the fake gentleman for the time being.
"Yinger, are you ready?"
"Miss Hui, you'll be fine early."
"Drink it for him."
When Ying'er walked to Manxiu with a cup of not cold or hot, Manxiu knew that what Ying'er had been doing just now, not tea, let alone for Zhou Xinran.
Looking at the dark appearance, it must not be a good thing. Manxiu frowned without warning.
"Don't worry, this is just a dumb medicine. There will be no pain after drinking it."
Dumb medicine? Don't let him talk anymore? Just say that the young lady of the Zhou family is not so kind. Today's words are nothing more than testing herself and warning herself. Fortunately, her answer is impeccable. Otherwise, I'm afraid it's not dumb medicine, but dead medicine.
Man Xiu didn't say much, just took the dumb medicine and drank it in one breath. Anyway, the poison has no effect on him at all. It's better to take this opportunity to dispel Zhou Xinran's suspicion and facilitate his behavior in Zhou's house.
" Shen Yuncheng!"
As soon as he heard the lady's call, Shen Yuncheng, who was guarding the door, quickly entered the door to salute.
"Let his hands be broken, but don't affect his work."
Zhou Xinran's plain words can't stop Shen Yuncheng.
"Miss..."
"Why, after staying with him for a long time, he also fell ill? Well, Yinger, tell him again."
Miss said, let you mutilate his hands! Just don't write, don't affect your work.
Don't write... Can't talk... Zhou Xinran, what is this guarding against him? Are you afraid that he will know some secrets to tell others? But what he knows so far is that Zhou Xinran will control weapons with his will. Is this very threatening?
Man Xiu was very puzzled by Zhou Xinran's behavior, but he obediently stretched out his hands to the feet of Shen Yuncheng. Disabled, these hands have followed the wrong owner. They haven't lost their fingers in the Hundred Flowers Hall, and they still haven't got rid of the fate of disability here. Was he an unforgiving bastard in his last life? He wanted to forgive his sins like this in his life...
"Miss, but..."
"If you want to take care of your godfather, I don't object to replacing you." Zhou Xinran has already given the last order. However, Shen Yuncheng had to lower himself and hold Manxiu's bones in his hand, destroying this pair of slender and beautiful hands that could even play the song of nature. It's really a pity. It's a pity.
Shen Yuncheng hesitated for a moment and calculated the proportion. Although this move can break the man's hand bone, it can also be picked up immediately, but the premise is that Zhou Xinran will not personally test the injury...
"Why don't you do it quickly?" Zhou Xinran also stared at Shen Yuncheng calculatingly. Alas, it's fate, Qin Manxiu, I'm sorry.
Just as Shen Yuncheng was about to take action, the door suddenly opened. With the gentleman shouting " Stop!", Man Xiu's hands escaped a bad luck again.
"Sir? Uncle Ren?" Zhou Xinran's eyes were not only Mr., but also Ren Moci who pushed him over.
"Miss, leave this person to us."
"Uncle Ren, didn't you hear what the emperor said today?"
"Yuncheng, Yinger, take this slave down first."
"Hate! It's mine, Uncle Ren. Although Dad treats you like a brother, he didn't let you rob people!"
"Miss, this matter is very important, not a child's play."
"Okay, then Uncle Ren, let's talk about it. How important is it? Is that gift from the court that important? What's more, he didn't!"
A trace of shock flashed in Ren Moci's eyes, and Zhou Xinran even knew about the gifts of the court? Who told her? Qin Manxiu?
"He said he listened to you?"
"You don't care who told me. Anyway, if you don't give me an explanation today, you will never take them away."
There was a trace of concern on Ren Moci's face, but when he saw it, he said, "Since you are the daughter of the general, it's okay to tell you, but they..."
"You go down first." Zhou Xinran waved his hand, and Yinger consciously retreated. Shen Yuncheng also went out with Man Xiu, but immediately returned.
Only listen to the voice of Mo Ci in the house, "That is the distribution map of the soldiers and horses of the court. With it, we can better cooperate with Liao and Xixia, attack Song on three sides, and seize the Zhao family of the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop."
And this is the so-called big business.
