Chapter 167
In the study room, there was deathly silence, only the crackling of the rainstorm outside the house and the crackling of the stone steps came one after another.
After Zhou Guangji heard Fan Tai's words, his wrinkled eye sockets and old eyes narrowed slightly, and he deliberately lowered his voice, clearly trembling: "Mr. Fan, how sure are you about this matter?"
Zhou Guangji has lived most of his life, what scene has he not seen?
But the matter of killing the king is really dangerous, so we have to be more careful!
Fan Tai smiled confidently, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, there is nothing wrong with this! Mr. Zhou, let's see."
Saying that, the folding fan closed in the palm of his hand was raised to the side, and a ray of light suddenly appeared on the wooden table beside him. The wooden table and the potted pine plant behind it were chopped into two pieces like cutting tofu , the fracture is as smooth as a mirror.
"This..." Zhou Guangji gasped, stood up abruptly, and said in a startled voice, "Young Master Fan, it turns out he is from the Immortal Family!"
When Zhou Guangji was young, he had also seen immortals wandering in the market place. After seeing this scene, he couldn't see that Fan Tai in front of him was clearly a member of the immortal family who possessed extraordinary powers and great supernatural powers!
Fan Tai laughed and said: "Old Zhou, you know that this young master is relying on you. If you don't have this ability, this young master would not dare to take risks alone and travel between enemy countries."
He thought to himself, if he had known earlier that he would be able to easily gain the trust of this old man, he had previously...
But after thinking about it, it seemed unlikely.
"If it weren't for Lord Su to break this old man's thoughts, even if I show the magic of the immortal family, it will be difficult to make him make up his mind!"
On this side, Zhou Guangji's complexion changed, for a long time, his eyes were cold, and he said each word: "There is Su Yishi who is unkind, don't blame this old man for being unrighteous!"
Several other families still have the possibility of going bankrupt and eliminating disasters, but he and the Jiang family didn't even give this opportunity. Since retreating is death and advancing is death, it is better to make a shocking blow and seek the rank of promotion!
"Anyway, once Zheng Guo's army is launched, Su Guo will be wiped out sooner or later. What the old man did today can be regarded as a great contribution to my Zhou family in Zheng Guo."
Zhou Guangji made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Young Master Fan, I can help your people get close to this kid, but I have conditions!"
Fan Tai was overjoyed, and without revealing anything, he said softly: "Old Zhou, it's okay to say nothing!"If I can make the decision, I promise you. If I can’t, there is someone who can make the decision. This is Princess Zhaoyang, the daughter of Duke Zheng, and she can fully grant what Elder Zhou wants! "
As he spoke, he turned his consulting eyes to Zheng Yun'er.
"If Mr. Zhou has any conditions, I can agree on my behalf. I am Princess Zheng Guo Zhaoyang, and I guarantee it with my reputation." Zheng Yun'er felt both novelty and excitement at the moment, and her light and watery voice was a little excited.
"My Zhou family wants to live in Fengle County!" Zhou Guangji glanced at Zheng Yun'er, not surprised by the noble status of the girl, and spit out a few words lightly.
"This..." Fan Tai frowned, remained silent for a moment, and looked at Zheng Yun'er.
Zheng Yun'er was also a little hesitant.
Zhou Guangji said anxiously: "Young Master Fan, I am risking my whole family to be beheaded. If Zheng Guo is not willing to even give up Fengle County, why would I take such a risk and commit treason?"
Fan Tai said: "Mr. Zhou, this matter is too important for me to decide."
Zheng Yun'er said in a clear voice: "This palace is the master, but this Fengle County is not entrusted to you. Your Zhou family can be the county guard for generations. As long as you are loyal to my Zheng family and never betray, the position of the county guard can be hereditary."
At this moment, the girl raised her swan-like slender neck, and her pretty face was full of the arrogance of a princely child.
Seeing this, Zhou Guangji was overjoyed, and said: "Since this is the case, I will do my best to help Her Royal Highness achieve this amazing feat!"
After the two parties negotiated, they established a written document, which can be regarded as a witness.
Then, Zhou Guangji said: "It's not difficult to get close to that kid, the old man already had eyeliner in the county guard's mansion..."
The lights flickered a few times, and several people conspired and deliberated about the assassination plan.
Xia Houzhu listened with fright, and faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find out why, so he carried the sword box on his back, stepped out of the wing, leaned on the attic railing, and looked at the rain curtain in the distance to breathe.
"Senior Sister Xiahou." At this moment, a voice as light as a mountain spring ding-dong resounded, and a faint fragrance rang out.
Xia Houzhu looked at Fan Xiao at the side, nodded, and replied, "Miss Fan."
Fan Xiao wore a long lotus-colored dress, a girl with almond eyes and peach cheeks, slim and graceful, with a short flute hanging from her waist, she rolled up her cuffs, stretched out a white catkin like jade, and stretched it out on the corridor, letting the rain fall on her palm Among them, he cast his mana, and drops of rain danced on his slender fingers.
Compared with Zheng Yun'er's arrogance, the girl's voice was as soft as water, with a little calmness in her liveliness.
"Senior Sister Xiahou, what do you think of brother's strategy?" Fan Xiao asked suddenly.
Xia Houzhu shook his head slightly, and said: "I don't know, but at most it won't work, there should be no danger."
Xia Houzhu thought about it, but he couldn't think of anything wrong, so he could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart that came from nowhere.
Fan Xiaoli nodded, and said with a light smile, "Brother is resourceful and thoughtful, and this matter will probably be accomplished."
"You have a lot of confidence in him." Xia Houzhu said inexplicably.
Fan Xiao blinked her eyes, and said softly: "Elder brother, since he was a child, he is very capable no matter what he faces, and he has always protected me. Of course I believe him."
Following their mother, Chen Ji, the two entered the Haoyang School's mountain gate, and they have been instructed by Haoyang School's disciples overtly and secretly. In the past, it was Fan Tai who protected Fan Xiao, so the two brothers and sisters have a deep relationship.
Xia Houzhu looked at the girl with clear eyebrows, smiled lightly and shook his head, and didn't say much.
At this time, Fan Xiao took out the short flute around his waist, put it on his lips, and blew it gently. The long and sad melody floated into the distance in the rain.
"What song is this?" After a while, Xia Houzhu asked softly.
""Bijian Liuquan"." Fan Xiao said softly.
Xia Houzhu was about to say something.
Fan Tai, who was not far behind, came and said loudly: "Miss Xiahou, in the evening, you will also enter the Sheriff's Mansion with Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Xiahou Zhuyingxiu's sword eyebrows were slightly raised, and her lips were pursed in silence.
Fan Tai smiled and said: "Miss Xiahou, don't misunderstand, I just let you protect Her Royal Highness, you don't need to take action, lest luck backfires and affects Dao karma."
Fan Tai was not stupid, even for the sake of immortality, he didn't dare to let Zheng Yun'er take the risk alone. Xia Houzhu was already in the Golden Core realm, if he accompanied her for protection, it would be an insurance for Zheng Yun'er's safety.
Xia Houzhu thought for a while, and said, "Yes, I can protect Her Highness the Princess."
Seeing that the matter had settled down, Fan Tai looked at Xiahou Zhu, and said seriously: "Miss Xiahou, no matter whether the matter is successful or not, you must ensure the safety of Her Highness the Princess."
Xia Houzhu nodded.

Fengle County Sheriff's Office
Night fell, because there was no moon and it was raining again, the outside was pitch black, and lanterns had already been raised under the eaves to disperse the night.
In the study room, Su Zhao was buried in the official documents. Feeling something in his heart, he raised his eyes. Under the reflection of the candlelight, the light in his eyes danced with an inexplicable light.
At this time, I heard the voice of an official outside the door, "Your Majesty, it's already you hour, can you pass on the dinner?"
Su Zhao responded, and asked, "Yang Jushi, what did you do in the kitchen?"
"The Feast of the Fish and the Sheep." Yang Jushi suddenly lifted his heart to his throat and said loudly.
Su Zhao said, "Let someone bring it here."
The recorder surnamed Yang responded, and left in a hurry. In Su Zhao's ears, the sound of his footsteps varied in intensity, clearly a little scattered.
"Zhaozhao, someone really wants to harm you." Hee hee laughter rang in Su Zhao's ears, in the shadow of the lights, the aura was as clear as water, a girl with silver hair and long dress, her delicate and lovely doll face was full of playfulness, Not the slightest worry.
Isn't it An An who came back from patrolling the embankment, or who?
"Someone hurt me, so you don't have to look happy, do you?" Su Zhao glanced at the silver-haired girl helplessly, and said through voice transmission with his spiritual sense, "You are so young, do you want to be a widow so much?"
"Hmph, you think beautifully, I won't be a widow for a girl like you." The silver-haired girl snorted softly, deliberately annoyed Su Zhao.
Su Zhao didn't care either, and said, "Be careful, don't be discovered by thieves."
An An responded, and with a voice transmission from her spiritual sense, she said with a smile: "When those assassins arrive in a while, will those who are going to die or live?
"Try to capture him alive." Su Zhao said through voice transmission with his spiritual sense.
"Hide, people are coming." Su Zhao frowned, and when he heard footsteps, he said to An An through voice transmission.
The aura flickered, and the silver-haired girl was hidden in a soft swaying candlelight.
At this time, two servants came to the study with washbasins, towels, and teapots, put them aside, stood with their heads down, and waited for orders.
