Rebirth of the Phoenix

Chapter 70 The Treasure House

When You courageously went home, he only saw Yu Lin, his father in name but actually his uncle, sitting on the ground with a collapsed expression on his face. You Yong frowned slightly. It was the first time he saw Yu Lin. He couldn't bear to see such a gaffe, and coughed, "Father, what are you...?"

Yulin blinked, and seemed to have regained his consciousness. He seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, "I told you...don't act rashly, why didn't you listen?" Not very big.

"I was quite sure, but who knew that Zhang Xiu would escape." You Yong gritted his teeth, "And that old lady!" His face was full of hostility, he was suppressed by You Xiang all the year round. Underneath, his mind is not pure anymore, he is not only cynical, but also hates all the true feelings in the world, he treats You Lin only a little bit better than You Xiang, "That old godly woman, if it wasn't for her, Zhang Xiu would have already been Sentenced!"

You Lin looked at You Yong's resentful affection in silence, with a blank expression. For the first time, he felt that the erection of the shield was wrong. You Yong's disposition had changed. He was so stupid, maybe he didn't see his adopted son clearly at all, "You...you can do it yourself." He has been implicated so much, and he still cherishes his life. Between wealth and life, Yulin does not hesitate I chose life.

At this moment, Zhang's mansion is the opposite of You's mansion, it seems to be a sea of ​​celebration, because Zhang Xiu just came out, so she didn't drink, but drank porridge and side dishes, but Xuan Bin and Xiao Yuan put together wine Come, He Miaomiao came over with Bao'er, she didn't bother to eat vegetables at the moment, but started to feed the children, Yun'er graciously served Zhang Xiu with vegetables, with the joy and gratitude in her eyes for the rest of her life after the catastrophe.

The old lady just showed her face, said a few words to Zhang Xiu earnestly, and then went to sleep. The only silent person at the table was Wen Pingting, she sat quietly, not moving or doing anything. She moved her mouth, like a vase and a decoration, as before, without any sense of existence. When Xuan Bin was a little drunk, he turned his head and found that Wen Pingting had disappeared.

"There is no moonlight tonight. What are you doing looking at the sky?" Xuan Bin stretched out his hand to support the pillar, with a puzzled face and a hint of excitement in his eyes.

"Because... I knew you were coming, so I deliberately looked at the sky, so that you would be curious and come here." Wen Pingting didn't know when it started, and she fell in love with Wang Wangtian. At this moment, she didn't turn around or look back. , has been looking at the endless sky.

"If you are leading me here, then I am here. Do you have anything to say to me?" Xuan Bin has always felt that there seems to be a big mystery about Wen Pingting, and this mystery seems to be about to come to him. How can he not feel excited when the veil is lifted in front of him.

"At the beginning, I boasted that I would read all the books in your family's collection. It seems that I really can't finish it." Wen Pingting murmured.

"What did you say?" The distance was not very close, so Xuan Bin couldn't hear clearly, so he hurriedly stepped forward.

"It's nothing." Wen Pingting finally lowered her head, her tone was very dejected, the courage she raised just now seemed to evaporate, but when she thought of something, she bit her lip, turned around quickly, and bumped into Xuan Bin who was approaching. When I got there, my face turned red for a moment.

"You are very strange." It was not a question, but a statement, Xuan Bin was sure that Wen Pingting had something to hide from him, and it was a very important decision, "What happened?"

"...if I die, will you remember me?" Looking at Xuan Bin's serious eyes, Wen Pingting seemed to be suffocated for a moment, as if she was tempted to ask this deep-seated question .

"How could you die?" Xuan Bin stared at Wen Pingting seriously, from her eyes to her face, and then to her body, he noticed that Wen Pingting's cuffs were turned up unintentionally , and this is something she would never do in the past. She has always been a neat person, and there must be a reason for her to become like this, "Did you encounter any problems? Tell me I can help You can solve it." Thinking of this, Xuan Bin lowered his voice.

Wen Pingting looked deeply at Xuan Bin, and showed a smiling face for a while, "I'm kidding you." She covered her lips and smiled lightly, "How could I say such a thing?" She showed a lively smile , as if the sad she just now was just someone else's illusion.

"..." When Xuan Bin was about to say something, Wen Pingting had already thrown herself into Xuan Bin's arms, and she rubbed her head against Xuan Bin's chest, "I said that I want to be the mistress of the Xuan family, you want Remember this sentence."

Xuan Bin lowered his head, smelling the smell of alcohol, he shook his head unconsciously, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

The next day, after the guests had left, Wen Pingting knocked on Zhang Xiu's door, "Tingting, come in quickly." Yun'er took Wen Pingting's hand and entered the room.

Zhang Xiu looked at Wen Pingting with complicated eyes. She remembered Wen Pingting's strangeness before. Now that she has embarked on the road of rebellion as Wen Pingting said, does it mean that she is qualified to know What about those things?

Wen Pingting just glanced at Zhang Xiu at the end of her eyes, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth, she held Xia Yun'er's hand tightly, "Brother, sister-in-law, I just want to talk about one thing today." There were no other people in front of the two, and Wen Pingting took a deep breath, "The person most trusted by the last emperor of the previous dynasty was Grand Master Zhang. Before he died, he had already expected it, so he gave something to him. Zhang Taishi kept it, claiming that such things must not fall into the hands of the surname Xu. Zhang Taishi held such a thing, and he was afraid of being noticed. He personally handed it over to his wife and uncle. He was secretly searched six times. Zhang Taishi has been dormant for a long time. He wanted to give this thing to a suitable person. Unexpectedly, he passed away before he found the person. Before he died, Zhang Taishi personally ordered his wife and uncle, We must find a suitable person to deliver this thing. Zhang Taishi's wife and uncle are not very friendly, and they are helpless in this matter. It happened that his daughter accidentally broke into the study where he put the thing, so he Taking advantage of the situation, I gave the task to his daughter, and that daughter is me." Wen Pingting said these words calmly.

The air seemed to be stagnant, "You..." Zhang Xiu's eyes widened, she seemed to have a premonition, and her heart seemed to jump out.

"Yes, the person I chose is you." Wen Pingting said these words without any waves, and she placed an object similar to a modern key but several times the size of a modern key on the table, "This is the key to the treasure house of the previous dynasty. Besides this, I also entrust myself to you." Wen Pingting added, "This key alone cannot open the treasure house, and I, I wrote down the opening methods of all the organs, and I will add the key, and you can get the treasure of the previous dynasty."

Zhang Xiu couldn't help stretching out her hand and picked up the key. There was a faint rust on the key, but the style was so familiar. Zhang Xiu's hand trembled slightly. A golden treasure appeared, but... she thought about it, and there was a trace of struggle in her eyes. If so, then didn't she just take a shortcut?This seems to go against my own ideas.

"It is said that the Jiangnan King's uprising is imminent, and General Zhengxi is also loyal and treacherous, and foreign countries are watching." Wen Pingting seemed to see through Zhang Xiu's thoughts, and added, "Of course, it's up to you."

Zhang Xiu couldn't help holding the key tightly, yes, there was no time, she strengthened her belief, at this moment, Zhang Xiu didn't notice the flash of relief in Wen Pingting's eyes.

Why not treasures falling from the sky?Zhang Xiu had no reason to refuse this gift from God, she made up her mind and held the key tightly.

At this moment, Zhang Xiucai knew why the old lady would match herself and Wen Pingting before. There was a reason for this. Thinking of this, she looked at the cousin of the Wen family with complicated eyes, and her mind was a little distracted, and she thought about a lot of things , only felt that she seemed to be going one step further from that position, she subconsciously clenched her lover's hand, breathing a little short of breath.

"Since my cousin has made up his mind, I'll go and talk to my aunt." Wen Pingting got up after saying that, she is not Yumu, on the contrary she has a delicate heart, whoever treats her well, who treats her No, she knows who likes her and who doesn't.

"Let's go together." A thought flashed in Zhang Xiu's mind, although it was only for a moment, she caught it. She thought about it, and a deep smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Yun'er only felt that the amount of information was too much and she couldn't turn her head around, but for such a confidential matter, Zhang Xiu didn't avoid her at all, Yun'er was very excited, felt the warmth of being trusted, and even faintly grateful , she didn't ask what to do next, she only knew that as long as Zhang Xiu needed it, she would do it.

...is this day finally here?The old lady looked at the people in front of her with complicated eyes. From the day her grandson came back, she felt that her grandson was not a thing in the pond. She never thought that one day her grandson would walk on that road, but there was no way for her to succeed. Regret, the matter has come to this point, she put aside the contradiction in her heart, and said softly but firmly, "Since this is the case, then carry out according to the plan."

"Grandma, I think..." Zhang Xiu took a step closer and told the old lady what she thought of.

The old lady pondered for a while, and a gratified smile appeared on the corner of her mouth for a while, "Since you have thought it all over, then go ahead and do what you want."

Zhang Xiu smiled confidently, left the main hall, and called Qiao Xun.

"Last night, Yulin packed his bags overnight and wanted to escape. His subordinates knocked him unconscious and took him back to his house. If he woke up today and continued to escape, his subordinates broke his knees, pretending to be a broken leg. , This subordinate has made his own decisions, please punish him, Master." Qiao Xun knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and said in a low voice.

Zhang Xiu was a little surprised, but after hearing this, she was only full of pleasure, "Okay, well done." She hurriedly helped Qiao Xun up, "Qiao Tang's hosting is excellent, what's wrong?" After a pause , she said again, "I came to you for another matter..."

In the evening of the same day, someone reported that the county magistrate Youlin was plotting to rebel and that there were illegal weapons hidden in the mansion. Before he could finish his sentence, he was shot by an arrow from the killer in the teahouse opposite. The officer on duty was keenly aware that this was a serious case. , Hastily reported it up, and that night, Li Jing was ordered to lead people to search Youfu.

At the same time, in the suburbs of Beijing, a group of people was winding towards an unknown hill. After entering the mountainside, relying on Wen Pingting's superhuman memory, they passed one trap after another. The more traps passed, Xuan Bin's The more wrong the eyes were, and as Wen Pingting passed the level more and more slowly, Xuan Bin's heart almost flew out of his throat, and finally Wen Pingting stopped, "There is the last one left..." She whispered unconsciously.

No one dared to urge her, and no one dared to gasp for breath. Everyone held their breath, only to see Wen Pingting resolutely took out a dagger and cut off her arm...

Because she struck too fast, by the time everyone stopped her, beads of blood had already appeared on her arm.

"Are you crazy?" Xuan Bin felt a surge of rage, "How could you be so careless about your body!"

Being dragged by Xuan Bin, a trace of confusion flashed in Wen Pingting's eyes, "Let go." She said these two words without any emotion.

"Don't let go! I won't let go." Xuan Bin has a feeling that as long as he lets go, the other party will disappear. He has never believed in this, but he dare not take risks.

"...It will be done soon, as long as you drop the blood on the door opening, you can open the treasure house, and nothing will happen." Wen Pingting said softly, her tone full of relief.

"In that case, let me come." Saying that, Xuan Bin snatched the dagger from Wen Pingting's hand.

"No!" Wen Pingting screamed, "Only the blood of a virgin can be dripped on it!"

Seeing her sticking to her point of view, Xuan Bin let go of her hand half-believingly, and saw Wen Pingting's blood poured onto the door opening, and the door opened as if after a long time or just a moment.

What catches the eye is the golden color of the ground, where the heritage of a dynasty is stored. Zhang Xiu's eyes fell on the armor and other things placed behind, and he couldn't help showing a hint of a strategizing smile.

At this moment, no one noticed that Wen Pingting's face turned pale while staying outside the door.

... The emperor was dubious at first, but he never expected that the weapons and other items of the previous dynasty were found from You's mansion. Not only that, but also a set of emperor's uniforms, he suddenly felt furious. He originally only regarded the other party as a A dog, a dog that was brought out to flaunt its kindness and beauty, did not expect that this dog would not want to be a dog, but would devour its master instead.

The emperor was so angry that he bled for thousands of miles, and directly ordered him to sit down and punish his clan, but Mr. Lu, who was in the yamen of the capital, was lucky enough to be excluded.

When Caishikou executed You Lin, You Yong and others, Lu Wei was kneeling in front of Zhang Xiu, "Master Zhang, the little one is just a dog. He has eyes but can't see Mount Tai. This time, Master Zhang saved the little one. The little one must live up to the high expectations of the adults..."

Looking at Lu Wei who was still rambling, Zhang Xiu showed a trace of satisfaction deep in her eyes.

The emperor doesn't just want loyal ministers and direct ministers, sometimes he needs villains and eagle dogs, and Lu Wei is very talented in this area. Although the Lu family is not a wealthy family, it is also a famous family. With Lu Wei, Zhang Xiu believed that it would be just around the corner to disintegrate the status quo of noble families monopolizing the imperial court.
