Love for Three Lives: Cui Cui Rebirth
Chapter 43
Being held in Chi Rui's arms and riding together, Cui Cui felt a little unnatural when she thought of what happened just now.
From getting on the horse until now, Chi Rui has been silent. Cui Cui lowered her head, held Chi Rui's hand on her waist, and tried hard to change the subject, "Chi Rui?"
"Huh?" Someone responded casually.
"Did I tell you that you look handsome in military uniform?"
Military uniforms are always able to change a person's temperament. In the past, Chi Rui was elegant, but when he put on the military uniform, he suddenly seemed to be a different person.
The military uniform on his body not only does not violate harmony, but can highlight his ability.
After all, he is the one who can take over the position of the military governor. Although he is not as experienced and stable as Shen Hu, after years of precipitation, Chi Rui will definitely be able to transform into a tyrant.
Cui Cui's compliment made Chi Rui feel a little better, and the hand on Cui Cui's waist tightened a bit.
After returning to Chi's mansion, seeing that her grandson and granddaughter-in-law were safe, Grandma Chi hurriedly asked Butler Liu to kill a chicken to pay the gods, holding a Buddhist bead and saying over and over again that God has eyes.
Before Cui Cui had time to sit in the hot chair, she hurried back to her room to see her son.
Ning'er was born prematurely, and her emotional and physical health was not good before giving birth, so Cui Cui was afraid that there was something wrong with him.
Besides Gui'er and Wan'er, Grandma Chi assigned two more maids to take care of Ning'er, and even let out Lianxiang, who was close to her.
Cui Cui picked up Ning'er and kissed his little face, "Ning'er, mother is back. Do you miss mother?"
Ning'er was only a month old and couldn't speak. She just blinked and looked at Cui Cui.
Although Ning'er and He'er have the same father and mother, they are not alike in appearance or character.
He'er's appearance is [-]% similar to Chi Rui's, but her personality is more like Cui Cui, very lively, and she likes to cry the most, which can be seen from Cui Cui's troubled life before he was born.
Although Ning'er looks more like Cuicui in appearance, she is more like Chi Rui in temperament, calm and introverted, she was obedient when she was in Cuicui's stomach, and she is not noisy when she comes out now.
Before he had time to take off his military uniform, Chi Rui followed Cui Cui into the house.
There was a more or less murderous look on this robe, so he was disgusted by Cui Cui again, "Go change your clothes and come back again, Ning'er is still young, don't let him smell the bloody smell on your body."
"Okay." Anyway, in Cui Cui's heart, his status has always been inferior to that of his son, Chi Rui compromised, kissed Cui Cui on the face, then turned around and changed clothes.
After experiencing life and death, and reuniting after a long absence, there are always many emotions.
In particular, the matter of losing Cui Cui in the church that day was simply a heart problem for Chi Rui. Since Cui Cui came back, she found that there were twice as many guards in the yard.
"Chi Rui." Cui Cui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I stay in Chi's house every day to take care of the children, there is no danger at all, what about you?"
"Of course." Chi Rui straightened his military uniform and prepared to go out. "In a while, it will be Ning'er's [-]-day banquet. There will be a lot of people coming, so we have to be careful."
"Alright then." Cui Cui obediently handed over her military cap, "Be careful on the road."
Chi Rui took Cui Cui's hand and pressed a kiss on her forehead, "I'll be back early in the evening."
"Ah."
After watching Chi Rui leave, Cui Cui went back to the house and began to look at the account books. Now that Chi Rui has gone to Shen Jun's office as a staff officer, most of the family affairs fall on Cui Cui.
When she was thinking about how to arrange Ning'er's hundred-day banquet, suddenly a message came from the Governor's Mansion.
"Having a banquet at the Governor's Mansion?" Chi Rui frowned when he heard Cuicui's words when he came back.
"That's right." Cui Cui took his coat and put it aside, "The warlord said that you were one of the heroes who made great contributions to the attack on Qingfengzhai this time, so I hope that Ning'er's [-]-day banquet will be held together with the celebration banquet, and it will be held in the warlord's mansion .”
Is this giving Chi Rui a boost in the army?
Not long after Chi Rui and Xiang Tiancai entered Shen Jun, one married Shen Lingxue, and the other even held his son's hundred-day banquet at the Governor's Mansion.
Is this using Chi Rui to suppress Xiang Tian and let them restrain each other to achieve balance?
Cuicui hesitated, "Chi Rui, do you think we should agree?"
Chi Rui paused for a moment while unbuttoning his clothes, then nodded, "Go ahead. We can't refuse the Warlord's kindness."
Indeed, I can't refuse.
Now that she has decided to hold a banquet at the Governor's Mansion, Cui Cui's affairs are a lot easier. She only needs to think about what she and Chi Rui will wear that day, and Yu Rong can take care of other things.
Originally wanted to order a cheongsam with a brighter color, but the new batch of sapphire blue cloth from Chijiaxiang Cloth Co., Ltd. attracted Cuicui's attention. After careful consideration, she decided to make sapphire blue ones.
Chi Rui was still wearing a simple white suit, but to complement Cuicui's cheongsam, he chose a royal blue tie.
As soon as she arrived at the Governor's Mansion, Ning'er was picked up by Yu Rong, and Ling Xue also came downstairs leisurely with her arms in her arms.
Because Xiangtian used the fake Yoyo to coax her before, Lingxue was still angry for a while, but with the help of the real Yoyo, the little treasure, the two quickly reconciled.
The people who came to the banquet today were all famous people in Jincheng, Cui Cui held Chi Rui's arm, and calmly and gracefully dealt with batch after batch of congratulators.
After a long time, her smile became a little stiff, Cui Cui pulled Chi Rui's sleeve, "Chi Rui, I want to go see Ning'er."
"I'll go with you." Putting down his wine glass, Chi Rui planned to go with Cuicui.
"No need." Cui Cui looked around and said, "Today's banquet we two are the protagonists, at least one person must be present, I will go, you stay."
"But—" He was worried, very worried.
"I'll be careful this time." Cui Cui squeezed his palm and said in relief, "Besides, it's only a few steps from here to the house, are you still afraid that I'll lose it?"
After hesitating for a long time, Chi Rui nodded, "Well, you go. I'll go in and find you in a while."
After entering the house, while going up the stairs, Cui Cui gently rubbed her forehead with her hands.
Because after giving birth to Ning'er, her body was seriously injured, and she hasn't recovered yet. The noisy environment just now made her a little uncomfortable.
She didn't want to worry Chi Rui, so she lied that she was going to see Ning'er.
Oh, my face must be very pale now.
Following her memory, Cui Cui walked to the bathroom at the end of the corridor on the second floor. She now needs a quiet environment to rest and reapply her makeup.
When Cui Cui had just put the doorknob on, someone inside suddenly pulled the door open.
It is to the sky.
His current appearance can be described as a mess.
There was a big red wine stain on the chest of the white shirt, his hair and clothes were very messy, and his breathing was very short, as if... as if he just had a fight with someone?
"Excuse me." Cui Cui stood at the door with her arms folded and said with her head raised.
Xiang Tian came out of the bathroom without saying a word, and made way for Cui Cui.
Cui Cui walked into the bathroom with her bag in her hand, wet the veil with cold water and applied it to her forehead. It took a long time before she breathed a sigh of relief.
He took out the comb and mirror from the bag, and prepared to step out of the room after finishing his appearance.
Cui Cui did not expect that she would encounter a huge surprise as soon as she opened the door.
There were two men in black outside the door, one covered his face, the other seemed injured, the veil on his face was tied to the wound on his right arm.
After meeting the two of them, Cui Cui almost exclaimed.
The injured person was Moda, so the other one didn't need to guess that it was Drow.
"Wu Cuicui?" After seeing Cuicui's appearance clearly, Zall put the gun in his arms again, and pushed her, "Go in—"
Before Cui Cui stepped out of the bathroom, Zall squeezed in with Moda again. The space that was originally small was now even more cramped because of the three adults.
The wound on Moda's right arm was still bleeding, and the strong smell of blood made Cui Cui take two steps back, "Why are you two here? There are so many guards outside the door, aren't you afraid of death? "
"Not afraid." Drow was bowing his head to treat Moda's wound, and replied without looking back.
Cui Cui sneered, and leaned against the door to look at the two of them, "Drow, what do you think this is? Even Xiang Tianlai's assassination was caught last time. With your skills, are you here to die?" ?”
"You don't have to worry about our affairs." Zhuo Er was a little annoyed when he found that the cloth strips were a little short, and then he was provoked by Cui Cui, so he immediately turned around and growled at her.
Cui Cui didn't bother to care, she just turned her face away to ignore them.
"Thorn-"
"what are you doing!"
The sound of cloth strips being torn was accompanied by Cui Cui's startled and angry voice.
Just now, while she was not paying attention, Zhuoer pulled out the dagger at his waist and slashed at the hem of her cheongsam, then tore off a large piece of cloth, preparing to wrap it on Moda's wound.
Zall raised the cloth in his hand calmly, and said to Cui Cui, "Your life was saved by us, it's just a cheongsam, there's no need to be so stingy, right?"
"..."
This is not a question of being stingy or not, is it?
Cui Cui looked down at her current appearance, almost wanting to hit a wall.
A good cheongsam was torn in a large piece, the cracks spread all the way to the thighs, and most of the light-colored underwear inside was exposed.
After all, there is still a man named Moda in this room, Cui Cui hurriedly turned sideways, hugging her clothes tightly.
After bandaging Moda, Drow turned around and pointed his gun at Cui Cui, "For the sake of saving you before us, I want you to help us escape."
Vigorously waving away Zall's hand holding the gun, Cui Cui sneered, "Aren't you all able to sneak in? Why can't you get out?"
"Wu Cuicui." The cold muzzle of the gun hit Cuicui's forehead again, "I'm not discussing with you, help us escape!"
After being silent for a while, Cui Cui took out a handkerchief from her bag, "I know there is a hidden side door in the backyard, I will give you the picture, you can find it yourself."
In her previous life, Cuicui still lived in the Governor's Mansion, and she accidentally found the side door full of creepers when she was wandering around. When she ran to ask Shen Hu, Chen Hu told her that she didn't know.
The predecessor of the Governor's Mansion was the yard of a rich family. The side door existed before Shen Hu moved in, and he didn't bother to take care of it, so he left it like this.
With a little blood on Zall's hand, Cui Cui searched her memory hard to draw the picture.
"This side door is behind a bunch of creepers. You can get out by breaking the lock with your gun." Passing the handkerchief to Zall, Cui Cui tilted her head and staggered her gun, "No one knows about this side door, don't worry."
"Why should I trust you?" Taking the handkerchief, Zall was a little worried, "You go with us."
Cui Cui looked down at her cheongsam, and said amusedly, "Do you think I can go out like this?"
Zhuoer pursed his lips, "Go ahead and distract all the servant girls."
"...Okay." Cui Cui picked up her handbag, turned around and went out the door.
Drow supported Moda and walked not far behind her.
Fortunately, I didn't meet any servants along the way.Cui Cui finally had time to think, and she could probably guess a little about why Moda and Drow appeared here.
Maybe it was to assassinate Shen Hu, or to seek revenge from Xiang Tian.
However, the second possibility is relatively high. Since Moda was injured, he must have fought against the opponent.If it was aimed at Shen Hu, then the entire military governor's mansion would have been destroyed long ago, it is impossible to be so quiet.
They must have come to make trouble for Xiang Tian, and then they were deliberately let go by Xiang Tian.
So Xiangtian came out of the bathroom just now because he had a fight with Moda, so he went in to tidy up?
Cui Cui is very smart, she calmed down and analyzed what happened just now.
Xiang Tian was also one of the heroes who attacked Qingfeng Village. As one of the protagonists of the banquet, he was surrounded by people to toast as soon as he appeared. He exchanged greetings with everyone while scanning his surroundings.
He knew Drow and Moda too well, and they would definitely come to take revenge after knowing the news of Yan Zheng's death, and today was the best time to sneak in.
It has to be said that Xiang Tian predicted it very accurately.
Not long after the banquet started, he caught a glimpse of two familiar figures.
He "accidentally" poured wine on his lapel, and while changing clothes, he found the two of them, and fought Moda a few tricks, and made him hang up.
After coming out of the bathroom, he wanted to find the two of them, but they bumped into Cui Cui first.
Turning another corridor, Cui Cui suddenly gestured backwards, and Moda and Drow immediately hid behind the pillar.
Cui Cui stood at the corner and said to a maid who was walking towards her, "My skirt was accidentally scratched, please go and get me a new set of dress."
"Yes." The little maid glanced at Cui Cui's clothes showing her thighs, and left with her head down.
After she left, Cui Cui waved behind her again, motioning for Moda and Drow to follow.
Although most of the maids and servants are helping at the banquet in the garden, the house is relatively empty, but this is the territory of the warlord after all, if two living people can come and go freely like this, it would be too embarrassing.
After turning another corner, the sudden approach of footsteps on both sides of the corridor made Cui Cui a little nervous.
"Come in--"
At this time, the opposite door suddenly opened, and Cui Cui was dragged in by her wrist.
Drow and Moda hesitated for a while and followed into the house.It's just that the two of them never expected that the person in the room was Xiang Tian with his upper body naked.
Zhuo Er was about to put the gun, and suddenly made a "shh" gesture to her, and then lay on the door to listen to the sound.
After the sound of footsteps faded away, Xiang Tian turned around and said to the two, "Go quickly. I won't hurt you."
"Do you think I'll believe your words?" Zhuoer's eyes widened, and he pointed his gun at Xiang Tian's forehead, his ruthless voice was still choked with sobs, "You are such a crazy person, you still have credibility." words?"
"Zoer." Cui Cui didn't want to care about it at first, but she was already involved, so it's not easy to watch her kill people, "You have to think clearly, if you want to shoot now, neither you nor Moda will die."
"I don't care." Drow is now full of hatred, "I must pay my life to the sky."
Xiang Tian slowly stretched out one hand to hold Drow's gun barrel, "Father's dying wish is for you to live well, if you shoot, then today, you, me and Moda, will be killed." We must burn jade and stone together."
"You still have the face to mention my father!" Two big tears flowed from Drow's eyes, "Xiang Tian, what is your heart made of?"
"Do you want to dig it out and take a look?" Xiang Tian pointed to his heart and said, "As long as you want, I will dig it out for you to see."
"Snapped--"
Zhuo Er raised his hand and slapped Xiang Tian hard, "Xiang Tian, I will kill you one day to avenge my father."
After all, I still can't do it!
Putting the gun back to his waist, Zall helped Moda and left the house.They only need to go through the window at the end of the corridor to the backyard, where Cui Cui mentioned the side door.
"Thank you." Xiang Tian held his forehead for a long time before saying to Cui Cui.
"If you want to thank me, be realistic." Cui Cui pointed to her broken cheongsam and said, "This is done by your good sister."
Xiang Tian showed a helpless smile, went to the closet and took a set of Ling Xue's clothes and handed them to Cui Cui, "Put it on, Ling Xue's, it should fit you well."
Seeing Cui Cui took the clothes, Xiang Tian picked up his own clothes and went to the bathroom in the bedroom to tidy up.
Chi Rui at the banquet is a little absent-minded now, because Cui Cui has been away for a long time and hasn't returned, so he is a little worried.Putting down the wine glass in his hand, he decided to look for it.
Unexpectedly, after asking a few maids, they said that they didn't see Cui Cui going upstairs, so he went to the backyard to try his luck.
The two black figures who were about to get close to the wall attracted his attention. He pulled out his gun and fired at the flower pot by the wall without hesitation. Chi Rui scolded, "Who, don't move!"
His gunshots were heard by everyone in the front hall.
Long Tianze immediately protected Shen Hu behind him, and shouted loudly, "Protect the warlord——"
The soldiers with guns all around immediately divided into two teams, one team surrounded Shen Hutuan in the middle, and the other team ran to the backyard to reinforce Chi Rui.
After several consecutive gunshots, someone suddenly shouted, "The man ran away, chase after—"
Cui Cui and Xiang Tian who were in the room could also hear the noise downstairs.
Glancing at Xiang Tian who had rushed out of the bathroom, the two ran to the window to look out together.
I saw that the whole banquet was already in chaos, many soldiers with guns surrounded Shen Hu and shouted loudly, "Protect the warlord, catch the assassin—"
"Oops." Xiang Tian hammered the window frame and planned to run outside.
"Wait, don't go." Cui Cui hurriedly pulled him back, "Why are you going down now to protect them and confront the warlord? Can you go down and help them escape?"
Cui Cui's words forced Xiang Tian's footsteps to stop abruptly.
Yes, if he goes down now, he won't be able to help them at all.But you can't just wait around and do nothing, right?
"You will panic if you go down, and you may show your weakness in front of the warlord." Cui Cui said calmly, "It's better to stay here and see the situation. If they are really caught, then find a way to save them."
Xiang Tian turned his head to look at Cui Cui.
He found that this woman was very calm, no matter what time she seemed to be able to analyze the situation calmly.
The first time they met, she beat herself unconscious with a stick in order to save Chi Rui.The second time, she came to Qingfengzhai alone.And then, at that banquet, in order to prevent herself from assassinating Shen Hu, she came to invite Wu Wu...
This woman is really not simple.
"Let's change clothes quickly." Cui Cui let go of his hand and walked to the bed to change clothes.
"Wu Cuicui." Xiang Tian suddenly grabbed her wrist, "You—"
He wanted to ask, why are you so sure that I will help Moda and Drow?
He wants to ask, why are you not afraid?
He wants to ask, will you tell what happened today?
But with so many questions, Xiang Tian didn't know which one to ask first?
"The two of them will live with me no matter what they say, and this time, I will repay their kindness." As if seeing through Xiang Tian's thoughts, Cui Cui took the initiative to explain, "Can you let go? I still want Change clothes."
"Thank you." There are only two words in a thousand words.
It is said that bandits burn, kill and loot all kinds of crimes, but there is one thing, they value loyalty the most.
Xiangtian couldn't let go of his wife and daughter, and likewise, he couldn't just watch Moda and Drow die, even if their existence might threaten his life.
For Wu Cuicui, he has both admiration and appreciation.Xiang Tian felt very fortunate that Ling Xue had such a smart and courageous sister.
After unfastening two more buttons, Cui Cui found that Xiang Tian hadn't left yet, so she said coldly, "Hey, I want to change clothes, so you can avoid it for a while, okay?"
"Oh." Xiang Tian nodded in a daze, "Sorry, I'll—"
"Boom bang—"
Before Xiang Tian finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, followed by Ling Xue's soft voice, "Xiang Tian, have you changed your clothes yet? I heard that an assassin has sneaked in. Are you okay?" Bar?"
Before he could respond, Long Tianze's voice suddenly sounded, "Cousin-in-law, for your safety, let us go in and check."
Saying that, he pushed the door open.
Cui Cui glanced at her disheveled clothes and Xiang Tian's naked upper body, a little flustered, "What should we do? We will definitely be misunderstood by others."
Xiang Tian paused, pushed Cui Cui onto the bed, pulled the quilt to cover her, then put on a shirt to welcome her out.
Cui Cui was stunned by his actions, and when she was about to get up, footsteps came from the door, so she had to stiffen immediately and remain motionless.
Xiang Tian saw that not only Ling Xue and Long Tianze, but also Shen Hu, Yu Rong, Shu Ting and Chi Rui who had been looking for Cui Cui all followed in, he calmed down and said, "What assassin? only myself."
Long Tianze squinted his eyes and looked around the room.
Ling Xue suddenly pointed to the bed and said, "Xiang Tian, how can you mess up the quilt just by changing your clothes?"
As she spoke, she was about to go forward to help Xiang Tian tidy up, but Xiang Tian hurriedly grabbed her, "It's okay, I'll do it myself later."
"Could it be that someone is hiding?" Long Tianze took advantage of Ling Xue holding Xiang Tian, and suddenly walked to the bedside to pull the quilt.
It was too late for Xiang Tian to stop, when the quilt was lifted, everyone saw Cui Cui lying inside...
And now her neckline is slightly open, her hair is messy, and there is a big tear at the hem of the cheongsam, which has been split up to her thigh.
So the current situation is that Cui Cui's clothes are disheveled, and Xiang Tian just put on an unbuttoned shirt in a hurry, obviously he just put it on.
Everyone was dumbfounded, their eyes wandered between Cuicui, Xiangtian and Chi Rui.
Such a scene is really hard for people not to want to be crooked!
Cui Cui immediately looked at Chi Rui nervously, hoping he would not misunderstand.
But in such a situation, how can people not misunderstand?
Not to mention others, Chi Rui was already on the verge of rage, with his hands tightly clenched into fists by his side.Followed by Ling Xue, she covered her mouth in disbelief, her eyes widened as she moved back and forth between Cuicui and Xiangtian.
At this moment, Xiang Tian walked to the bed, picked up the quilt that Long Tianze threw on the ground, covered Cui Cui, and said to Ling Xue very naturally, "Ling Xue, bring one of your clothes to your sister Put it on."
Cui Cui immediately looked at Xiang Tian viciously, which clearly means, you still don't think things are messy enough, do you?
Damn it, she shouldn't trust Xiang Tian, a bastard who can even report mistakes to her own daughter! !
Fuck, would you let me hide under the bed rather than under the quilt?
Xiangtian, has your IQ been eaten by a dog?Or are you just the legendary high IQ and low EQ?
Don't they all say that a man's IQ is comparable to Einstein's when he is cheating?Dear, what about Einstein?This shit is unscientific!
But the problem is, Xiang Tian is not having an affair in the first place!
Seeing Chi Rui turning around to leave, Cui Cui didn't care too much, she hurriedly got off the bed, went to Chi Rui's side and grabbed him, "Chi Rui, it's not what you saw or what you thought. I'll explain it to you."
"What kind of thing is that?" Shaking off Cui Cui's hand, Chi Rui strode out of the room with a sullen face.It was in vain that he was so worried about whether something happened to Cuicui just now, okay, this is considered an accident?
From getting on the horse until now, Chi Rui has been silent. Cui Cui lowered her head, held Chi Rui's hand on her waist, and tried hard to change the subject, "Chi Rui?"
"Huh?" Someone responded casually.
"Did I tell you that you look handsome in military uniform?"
Military uniforms are always able to change a person's temperament. In the past, Chi Rui was elegant, but when he put on the military uniform, he suddenly seemed to be a different person.
The military uniform on his body not only does not violate harmony, but can highlight his ability.
After all, he is the one who can take over the position of the military governor. Although he is not as experienced and stable as Shen Hu, after years of precipitation, Chi Rui will definitely be able to transform into a tyrant.
Cui Cui's compliment made Chi Rui feel a little better, and the hand on Cui Cui's waist tightened a bit.
After returning to Chi's mansion, seeing that her grandson and granddaughter-in-law were safe, Grandma Chi hurriedly asked Butler Liu to kill a chicken to pay the gods, holding a Buddhist bead and saying over and over again that God has eyes.
Before Cui Cui had time to sit in the hot chair, she hurried back to her room to see her son.
Ning'er was born prematurely, and her emotional and physical health was not good before giving birth, so Cui Cui was afraid that there was something wrong with him.
Besides Gui'er and Wan'er, Grandma Chi assigned two more maids to take care of Ning'er, and even let out Lianxiang, who was close to her.
Cui Cui picked up Ning'er and kissed his little face, "Ning'er, mother is back. Do you miss mother?"
Ning'er was only a month old and couldn't speak. She just blinked and looked at Cui Cui.
Although Ning'er and He'er have the same father and mother, they are not alike in appearance or character.
He'er's appearance is [-]% similar to Chi Rui's, but her personality is more like Cui Cui, very lively, and she likes to cry the most, which can be seen from Cui Cui's troubled life before he was born.

Before he had time to take off his military uniform, Chi Rui followed Cui Cui into the house.
There was a more or less murderous look on this robe, so he was disgusted by Cui Cui again, "Go change your clothes and come back again, Ning'er is still young, don't let him smell the bloody smell on your body."
"Okay." Anyway, in Cui Cui's heart, his status has always been inferior to that of his son, Chi Rui compromised, kissed Cui Cui on the face, then turned around and changed clothes.
After experiencing life and death, and reuniting after a long absence, there are always many emotions.

"Of course." Chi Rui straightened his military uniform and prepared to go out. "In a while, it will be Ning'er's [-]-day banquet. There will be a lot of people coming, so we have to be careful."
"Alright then." Cui Cui obediently handed over her military cap, "Be careful on the road."
Chi Rui took Cui Cui's hand and pressed a kiss on her forehead, "I'll be back early in the evening."
"Ah."
After watching Chi Rui leave, Cui Cui went back to the house and began to look at the account books. Now that Chi Rui has gone to Shen Jun's office as a staff officer, most of the family affairs fall on Cui Cui.
When she was thinking about how to arrange Ning'er's hundred-day banquet, suddenly a message came from the Governor's Mansion.
"Having a banquet at the Governor's Mansion?" Chi Rui frowned when he heard Cuicui's words when he came back.

Is this giving Chi Rui a boost in the army?
Not long after Chi Rui and Xiang Tiancai entered Shen Jun, one married Shen Lingxue, and the other even held his son's hundred-day banquet at the Governor's Mansion.
Is this using Chi Rui to suppress Xiang Tian and let them restrain each other to achieve balance?
Cuicui hesitated, "Chi Rui, do you think we should agree?"
Chi Rui paused for a moment while unbuttoning his clothes, then nodded, "Go ahead. We can't refuse the Warlord's kindness."
Indeed, I can't refuse.
Now that she has decided to hold a banquet at the Governor's Mansion, Cui Cui's affairs are a lot easier. She only needs to think about what she and Chi Rui will wear that day, and Yu Rong can take care of other things.

"No need." Cui Cui looked around and said, "Today's banquet we two are the protagonists, at least one person must be present, I will go, you stay."
"But—" He was worried, very worried.
"I'll be careful this time." Cui Cui squeezed his palm and said in relief, "Besides, it's only a few steps from here to the house, are you still afraid that I'll lose it?"
After hesitating for a long time, Chi Rui nodded, "Well, you go. I'll go in and find you in a while."
After entering the house, while going up the stairs, Cui Cui gently rubbed her forehead with her hands.
Because after giving birth to Ning'er, her body was seriously injured, and she hasn't recovered yet. The noisy environment just now made her a little uncomfortable.

Cui Cui did not expect that she would encounter a huge surprise as soon as she opened the door.
There were two men in black outside the door, one covered his face, the other seemed injured, the veil on his face was tied to the wound on his right arm.
After meeting the two of them, Cui Cui almost exclaimed.
The injured person was Moda, so the other one didn't need to guess that it was Drow.
"Wu Cuicui?" After seeing Cuicui's appearance clearly, Zall put the gun in his arms again, and pushed her, "Go in—"
Before Cui Cui stepped out of the bathroom, Zall squeezed in with Moda again. The space that was originally small was now even more cramped because of the three adults.
The wound on Moda's right arm was still bleeding, and the strong smell of blood made Cui Cui take two steps back, "Why are you two here? There are so many guards outside the door, aren't you afraid of death? "
"Not afraid." Drow was bowing his head to treat Moda's wound, and replied without looking back.
Cui Cui sneered, and leaned against the door to look at the two of them, "Drow, what do you think this is? Even Xiang Tianlai's assassination was caught last time. With your skills, are you here to die?" ?”
"You don't have to worry about our affairs." Zhuo Er was a little annoyed when he found that the cloth strips were a little short, and then he was provoked by Cui Cui, so he immediately turned around and growled at her.
Cui Cui didn't bother to care, she just turned her face away to ignore them.
"Thorn-"
"what are you doing!"
The sound of cloth strips being torn was accompanied by Cui Cui's startled and angry voice.
Just now, while she was not paying attention, Zhuoer pulled out the dagger at his waist and slashed at the hem of her cheongsam, then tore off a large piece of cloth, preparing to wrap it on Moda's wound.
Zall raised the cloth in his hand calmly, and said to Cui Cui, "Your life was saved by us, it's just a cheongsam, there's no need to be so stingy, right?"
"..."
This is not a question of being stingy or not, is it?
Cui Cui looked down at her current appearance, almost wanting to hit a wall.
A good cheongsam was torn in a large piece, the cracks spread all the way to the thighs, and most of the light-colored underwear inside was exposed.
After all, there is still a man named Moda in this room, Cui Cui hurriedly turned sideways, hugging her clothes tightly.
After bandaging Moda, Drow turned around and pointed his gun at Cui Cui, "For the sake of saving you before us, I want you to help us escape."
Vigorously waving away Zall's hand holding the gun, Cui Cui sneered, "Aren't you all able to sneak in? Why can't you get out?"
"Wu Cuicui." The cold muzzle of the gun hit Cuicui's forehead again, "I'm not discussing with you, help us escape!"
After being silent for a while, Cui Cui took out a handkerchief from her bag, "I know there is a hidden side door in the backyard, I will give you the picture, you can find it yourself."
In her previous life, Cuicui still lived in the Governor's Mansion, and she accidentally found the side door full of creepers when she was wandering around. When she ran to ask Shen Hu, Chen Hu told her that she didn't know.
The predecessor of the Governor's Mansion was the yard of a rich family. The side door existed before Shen Hu moved in, and he didn't bother to take care of it, so he left it like this.
With a little blood on Zall's hand, Cui Cui searched her memory hard to draw the picture.
"This side door is behind a bunch of creepers. You can get out by breaking the lock with your gun." Passing the handkerchief to Zall, Cui Cui tilted her head and staggered her gun, "No one knows about this side door, don't worry."
"Why should I trust you?" Taking the handkerchief, Zall was a little worried, "You go with us."
Cui Cui looked down at her cheongsam, and said amusedly, "Do you think I can go out like this?"
Zhuoer pursed his lips, "Go ahead and distract all the servant girls."
"...Okay." Cui Cui picked up her handbag, turned around and went out the door.
Drow supported Moda and walked not far behind her.
Fortunately, I didn't meet any servants along the way.Cui Cui finally had time to think, and she could probably guess a little about why Moda and Drow appeared here.
Maybe it was to assassinate Shen Hu, or to seek revenge from Xiang Tian.
However, the second possibility is relatively high. Since Moda was injured, he must have fought against the opponent.If it was aimed at Shen Hu, then the entire military governor's mansion would have been destroyed long ago, it is impossible to be so quiet.
They must have come to make trouble for Xiang Tian, and then they were deliberately let go by Xiang Tian.
So Xiangtian came out of the bathroom just now because he had a fight with Moda, so he went in to tidy up?
Cui Cui is very smart, she calmed down and analyzed what happened just now.
Xiang Tian was also one of the heroes who attacked Qingfeng Village. As one of the protagonists of the banquet, he was surrounded by people to toast as soon as he appeared. He exchanged greetings with everyone while scanning his surroundings.
He knew Drow and Moda too well, and they would definitely come to take revenge after knowing the news of Yan Zheng's death, and today was the best time to sneak in.
It has to be said that Xiang Tian predicted it very accurately.
Not long after the banquet started, he caught a glimpse of two familiar figures.
He "accidentally" poured wine on his lapel, and while changing clothes, he found the two of them, and fought Moda a few tricks, and made him hang up.
After coming out of the bathroom, he wanted to find the two of them, but they bumped into Cui Cui first.
Turning another corridor, Cui Cui suddenly gestured backwards, and Moda and Drow immediately hid behind the pillar.
Cui Cui stood at the corner and said to a maid who was walking towards her, "My skirt was accidentally scratched, please go and get me a new set of dress."
"Yes." The little maid glanced at Cui Cui's clothes showing her thighs, and left with her head down.
After she left, Cui Cui waved behind her again, motioning for Moda and Drow to follow.
Although most of the maids and servants are helping at the banquet in the garden, the house is relatively empty, but this is the territory of the warlord after all, if two living people can come and go freely like this, it would be too embarrassing.
After turning another corner, the sudden approach of footsteps on both sides of the corridor made Cui Cui a little nervous.
"Come in--"
At this time, the opposite door suddenly opened, and Cui Cui was dragged in by her wrist.
Drow and Moda hesitated for a while and followed into the house.It's just that the two of them never expected that the person in the room was Xiang Tian with his upper body naked.
Zhuo Er was about to put the gun, and suddenly made a "shh" gesture to her, and then lay on the door to listen to the sound.
After the sound of footsteps faded away, Xiang Tian turned around and said to the two, "Go quickly. I won't hurt you."
"Do you think I'll believe your words?" Zhuoer's eyes widened, and he pointed his gun at Xiang Tian's forehead, his ruthless voice was still choked with sobs, "You are such a crazy person, you still have credibility." words?"
"Zoer." Cui Cui didn't want to care about it at first, but she was already involved, so it's not easy to watch her kill people, "You have to think clearly, if you want to shoot now, neither you nor Moda will die."
"I don't care." Drow is now full of hatred, "I must pay my life to the sky."
Xiang Tian slowly stretched out one hand to hold Drow's gun barrel, "Father's dying wish is for you to live well, if you shoot, then today, you, me and Moda, will be killed." We must burn jade and stone together."
"You still have the face to mention my father!" Two big tears flowed from Drow's eyes, "Xiang Tian, what is your heart made of?"
"Do you want to dig it out and take a look?" Xiang Tian pointed to his heart and said, "As long as you want, I will dig it out for you to see."
"Snapped--"
Zhuo Er raised his hand and slapped Xiang Tian hard, "Xiang Tian, I will kill you one day to avenge my father."
After all, I still can't do it!
Putting the gun back to his waist, Zall helped Moda and left the house.They only need to go through the window at the end of the corridor to the backyard, where Cui Cui mentioned the side door.
"Thank you." Xiang Tian held his forehead for a long time before saying to Cui Cui.
"If you want to thank me, be realistic." Cui Cui pointed to her broken cheongsam and said, "This is done by your good sister."
Xiang Tian showed a helpless smile, went to the closet and took a set of Ling Xue's clothes and handed them to Cui Cui, "Put it on, Ling Xue's, it should fit you well."
Seeing Cui Cui took the clothes, Xiang Tian picked up his own clothes and went to the bathroom in the bedroom to tidy up.
Chi Rui at the banquet is a little absent-minded now, because Cui Cui has been away for a long time and hasn't returned, so he is a little worried.Putting down the wine glass in his hand, he decided to look for it.
Unexpectedly, after asking a few maids, they said that they didn't see Cui Cui going upstairs, so he went to the backyard to try his luck.
The two black figures who were about to get close to the wall attracted his attention. He pulled out his gun and fired at the flower pot by the wall without hesitation. Chi Rui scolded, "Who, don't move!"
His gunshots were heard by everyone in the front hall.
Long Tianze immediately protected Shen Hu behind him, and shouted loudly, "Protect the warlord——"
The soldiers with guns all around immediately divided into two teams, one team surrounded Shen Hutuan in the middle, and the other team ran to the backyard to reinforce Chi Rui.
After several consecutive gunshots, someone suddenly shouted, "The man ran away, chase after—"
Cui Cui and Xiang Tian who were in the room could also hear the noise downstairs.
Glancing at Xiang Tian who had rushed out of the bathroom, the two ran to the window to look out together.
I saw that the whole banquet was already in chaos, many soldiers with guns surrounded Shen Hu and shouted loudly, "Protect the warlord, catch the assassin—"
"Oops." Xiang Tian hammered the window frame and planned to run outside.
"Wait, don't go." Cui Cui hurriedly pulled him back, "Why are you going down now to protect them and confront the warlord? Can you go down and help them escape?"
Cui Cui's words forced Xiang Tian's footsteps to stop abruptly.
Yes, if he goes down now, he won't be able to help them at all.But you can't just wait around and do nothing, right?
"You will panic if you go down, and you may show your weakness in front of the warlord." Cui Cui said calmly, "It's better to stay here and see the situation. If they are really caught, then find a way to save them."
Xiang Tian turned his head to look at Cui Cui.
He found that this woman was very calm, no matter what time she seemed to be able to analyze the situation calmly.
The first time they met, she beat herself unconscious with a stick in order to save Chi Rui.The second time, she came to Qingfengzhai alone.And then, at that banquet, in order to prevent herself from assassinating Shen Hu, she came to invite Wu Wu...
This woman is really not simple.
"Let's change clothes quickly." Cui Cui let go of his hand and walked to the bed to change clothes.
"Wu Cuicui." Xiang Tian suddenly grabbed her wrist, "You—"
He wanted to ask, why are you so sure that I will help Moda and Drow?
He wants to ask, why are you not afraid?
He wants to ask, will you tell what happened today?
But with so many questions, Xiang Tian didn't know which one to ask first?
"The two of them will live with me no matter what they say, and this time, I will repay their kindness." As if seeing through Xiang Tian's thoughts, Cui Cui took the initiative to explain, "Can you let go? I still want Change clothes."
"Thank you." There are only two words in a thousand words.
It is said that bandits burn, kill and loot all kinds of crimes, but there is one thing, they value loyalty the most.
Xiangtian couldn't let go of his wife and daughter, and likewise, he couldn't just watch Moda and Drow die, even if their existence might threaten his life.
For Wu Cuicui, he has both admiration and appreciation.Xiang Tian felt very fortunate that Ling Xue had such a smart and courageous sister.
After unfastening two more buttons, Cui Cui found that Xiang Tian hadn't left yet, so she said coldly, "Hey, I want to change clothes, so you can avoid it for a while, okay?"
"Oh." Xiang Tian nodded in a daze, "Sorry, I'll—"
"Boom bang—"
Before Xiang Tian finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, followed by Ling Xue's soft voice, "Xiang Tian, have you changed your clothes yet? I heard that an assassin has sneaked in. Are you okay?" Bar?"
Before he could respond, Long Tianze's voice suddenly sounded, "Cousin-in-law, for your safety, let us go in and check."
Saying that, he pushed the door open.
Cui Cui glanced at her disheveled clothes and Xiang Tian's naked upper body, a little flustered, "What should we do? We will definitely be misunderstood by others."
Xiang Tian paused, pushed Cui Cui onto the bed, pulled the quilt to cover her, then put on a shirt to welcome her out.
Cui Cui was stunned by his actions, and when she was about to get up, footsteps came from the door, so she had to stiffen immediately and remain motionless.
Xiang Tian saw that not only Ling Xue and Long Tianze, but also Shen Hu, Yu Rong, Shu Ting and Chi Rui who had been looking for Cui Cui all followed in, he calmed down and said, "What assassin? only myself."
Long Tianze squinted his eyes and looked around the room.
Ling Xue suddenly pointed to the bed and said, "Xiang Tian, how can you mess up the quilt just by changing your clothes?"
As she spoke, she was about to go forward to help Xiang Tian tidy up, but Xiang Tian hurriedly grabbed her, "It's okay, I'll do it myself later."
"Could it be that someone is hiding?" Long Tianze took advantage of Ling Xue holding Xiang Tian, and suddenly walked to the bedside to pull the quilt.
It was too late for Xiang Tian to stop, when the quilt was lifted, everyone saw Cui Cui lying inside...
And now her neckline is slightly open, her hair is messy, and there is a big tear at the hem of the cheongsam, which has been split up to her thigh.
So the current situation is that Cui Cui's clothes are disheveled, and Xiang Tian just put on an unbuttoned shirt in a hurry, obviously he just put it on.
Everyone was dumbfounded, their eyes wandered between Cuicui, Xiangtian and Chi Rui.
Such a scene is really hard for people not to want to be crooked!
Cui Cui immediately looked at Chi Rui nervously, hoping he would not misunderstand.
But in such a situation, how can people not misunderstand?
Not to mention others, Chi Rui was already on the verge of rage, with his hands tightly clenched into fists by his side.Followed by Ling Xue, she covered her mouth in disbelief, her eyes widened as she moved back and forth between Cuicui and Xiangtian.
At this moment, Xiang Tian walked to the bed, picked up the quilt that Long Tianze threw on the ground, covered Cui Cui, and said to Ling Xue very naturally, "Ling Xue, bring one of your clothes to your sister Put it on."
Cui Cui immediately looked at Xiang Tian viciously, which clearly means, you still don't think things are messy enough, do you?
Damn it, she shouldn't trust Xiang Tian, a bastard who can even report mistakes to her own daughter! !
Fuck, would you let me hide under the bed rather than under the quilt?
Xiangtian, has your IQ been eaten by a dog?Or are you just the legendary high IQ and low EQ?
Don't they all say that a man's IQ is comparable to Einstein's when he is cheating?Dear, what about Einstein?This shit is unscientific!
But the problem is, Xiang Tian is not having an affair in the first place!
Seeing Chi Rui turning around to leave, Cui Cui didn't care too much, she hurriedly got off the bed, went to Chi Rui's side and grabbed him, "Chi Rui, it's not what you saw or what you thought. I'll explain it to you."
"What kind of thing is that?" Shaking off Cui Cui's hand, Chi Rui strode out of the room with a sullen face.It was in vain that he was so worried about whether something happened to Cuicui just now, okay, this is considered an accident?
