The Legend of the Royal Cat

Into the night

After finally sending away batch after batch of visiting people, Zhan Zhao had the opportunity to ask Bai Yutang about Ling'er's situation, knowing that Ling'er was really fine, so he was relieved!Seeing that Bai Yutang was doing well, he was in a daze and smirked, thinking that when the love was strong, he was also happy for his brothers and sisters!Thinking of the whiteness and beauty of the Rakshasa, Zhan Zhao's heart ached, Ruxue, waiting for me!

Just about to start discussing the next plan, it was interrupted by the sudden visit of Sishu.

"Four brothers, it's so late, and you still come to visit Zhan, the younger brother really—"

"Brother Zhan, I shouldn't have interrupted your rest at this time, but—brother, you can tell me!" Han Zhang interrupted Zhan Zhao, but he still couldn't say anything.

"This—" Maybe he knew otherwise, it would be better, Lu Fang also hesitated.

"Brother, what happened? It's not our style to be a mother-in-law like this!" Bai Yutang was more anxious than Zhan Zhao.

"Hey, Brother Zhan, let's see this for ourselves!" Lu Fang finally couldn't bear to say it, and handed over the martial arts killing order he just received and the martial arts announcement that Zhan Zhao left the school together to Zhan Zhao.

Is it time to come?The moment he saw the killing order, Zhan Zhao smiled bitterly. The expected result was not terrible!And seeing the announcement that he was expelled from the school by his master, Zhan Zhao's heart was still stabbed deeply, it hurt very much - he closed his eyes weakly, for a long, long time, like this - that's okay!Master, Zhao'er can only repay your kindness of nurturing and teaching in the next life. In this life, the master's reputation will be affected, and the master's family will be ashamed. It is the sin of the disciple!All of this, disciple will wash away with blood!

"Mao'er—are you alright? What is this?" Seeing Zhan Zhao's face gradually pale in pain, Bai Yutang snatched the things from Zhan Zhao's hands, "A kill order?! He actually ordered his apprentice to be killed?" Kill order?! Expelled from the school? Is this what Xuan Tianke, who was well-known in the martial arts world, would do? In order to protect himself, he would push his apprentice to a desperate situation without even giving him a chance to plead his case! You don’t need such a master! Mao’er, let’s go, go to the main gate of the Sanmen and ask your bastard master for clarification!”

"There is no need to argue, I am indeed a ghost boy, and I am indeed burdened with a lot of blood debts. It is not wrong for the master to kill relatives and uphold justice. Zhan Zhao does not blame the master! The most urgent thing now is to rescue Ruxue first, and I will go back and explain the rest!"

"Confession? How are you going to explain? How many lives do you have? The entire martial arts order to kill, you will face endless vendettas and assassinations when you leave the gate of Huai Wang's mansion! - No - I'm going to Huashan!" Bai Yutang turned around and was about to leave.

"Brother Bai, stay!" Zhan Zhao stepped forward, the horizontal sword blocked Bai Yutang's way, Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao who was getting more and more murderous in disbelief! "Teacher for one day, father for life! Zhan has no grievances! - If Brother Bai insists on going to Huashan to make things difficult for the teacher - the brotherhood between you and me, let's end here! In this way, you don't have to worry about Brother Bai." !" Before the four mice could cry out in surprise, the sword light flashed, and a corner of Zhan Zhao's snow-white inner garment had been cut off.

Circumcision! ?Bai Yutang's eyes turned from bewilderment to shock at first, and finally turned to anger when his eyes followed the corner of the clothes! "Zhan—— Zhao——Okay, okay! I, Bai Yutang, am blind, so I call you brothers and sisters with this black-hearted cat! You master and apprentice, one wants to kill and the other wants to die, so what does it matter to me? From now on, Bai Yutang respectfully keeps you at a distance!" Bai Yutang clenched his shadow tightly, snorted coldly, bumped into Zhang Zhao with his shoulder, broke through the door, and a series of jingling sounds and servants' exclamations resounded in the courtyard.

The fifth brother is really on fire this time!The four mice looked at me and I looked at you, and finally all their slightly complaining eyes fell on Zhan Zhao. Brother Zhan really went too far this time! "Well, cough, brother Zhan—" Lu Fang cleared his throat, and just as he was about to speak, Zhan Zhao's next sentence poured cold water on him.

"The four brothers don't need to persuade them anymore. Zhan Zhao can't bear it with Brother Bai. After that, he can finally have peace of mind!" Zhan Zhao said coldly, putting the giant que back into its sheath.

"Zhan Zhao, don't bully others too much. Although the fifth younger brother is self-willed, he will help you in everything. You can turn your face if you say what you say--" Xu Qing was already furious. Just use a hammer to teach this heartless cat a lesson.

"Okay, since that's the case, it's inconvenient for us to stay longer, Mr. Zhan, and the Five Rats will leave!" Lu Fang stopped the brothers and clasped his fists at Zhan Zhao, "Fourth Brother, the Five Rats will leave!" I owe Kaifeng Mansion a favor, we will take care of Mr. Bao until Mr. Zhan returns!”

"Thank you!" Zhan Zhao didn't hold back, and let Sishu pass him by, and they left together.It was night, Zhan Zhaohuanjian stood in front of the window, quietly looking at the bright moon, and secretly made a decision in his heart——

Kaifeng Mansion, Bao Zheng Study

"My lord, Mr. Lu and Mr. Jiang have gone back to Xingkong Island to take care of the island's affairs. The students have settled the guest rooms of Mr. Han and Mr. Xu!" Gongsun Ce paused, and then said, "My lord, if it is true what Mr. Lu said , Zhan Huwei's current situation can be described as extremely dangerous, he insists on forcing the Five Rats away, but he probably doesn't want to hurt the Five Rats."

"That's right! He has been hiding this from the government, and the next step is that he will bid farewell to the government! The government believes in the character of the guard Zhan, and he was only a ten-year-old 12 years ago! But this time, he must It is not someone else who guarded Zhan to death, but his master! How can the government protect him?" Bao Zheng frowned and thought.

"My lord, it is inconvenient for the Kaifeng Mansion to intervene in this matter, and it is impossible to intervene. It will only help more and more! Don't talk about the world's affairs, just the trial of this headless murder case, there will be three obstacles." Gongsun Ce Shaking his head and sighing.

"Sir, please speak!"

"The first level, witnesses in the old bloody case go crazy or die, there is only one result and infinite hatred left, and martial arts people will not give up vendetta because of right and wrong; It is the person who washed Tianshan with blood. No matter what the reason is, how should adults deal with it so that they can protect and protect themselves under the principle of justice? The third level, and the most difficult level, is to defend themselves. At that time, he was just a child, and he might even be controlled by people who didn't know what he was doing, but now Zhanwei knows everything, adults think, even if there is no master's order to kill, what would Zhanwei do?" Gongsun Ce's analysis has reached this point. I dare not think about it anymore.

"Sir, is there a way to resolve it?"

"Students think that Guard Zhan will protect himself before rescuing Miss Ruxue, and then—so, let Guard Zhan go to Rakshasa, give him a responsibility and a reason to live, and then never return to the Central Plains!"

"If he can be so obedient, he won't be the Zhan Zhao you and I know!" Bao Zheng sighed.

"Guard Zhan will naturally not submit obediently, so please put pressure on the adults and have someone to help!"

"Sir, you mean—"

"That's exactly what the student meant. Presumably this person has already seen through Zhanwei's mind and made this arrangement! My lord, the case of the murder of an official and Prince Huai's family affairs have come to an end. You can go and see Zhanwei tomorrow!"

"This residence also has this intention! Let Zhang Long, Zhao Hu Dynasty, and Ma Han go together. These four boys show how the adults are doing all day long, and they keep asking when they will come back. The ears of the residence are almost callused." It's gone!" Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce smiled wryly at each other, but their hearts were already infected by bitterness and sentimentality, and in the future, they will never see that smug redness again!

Royal Residence, Nanjing Pavilion

"What? Zilong, you said that Bai Yutang broke up with Brother Zhan? All the five rats have left?!" Linger was startled early in the morning.

"To be precise, it's—Big Brother Zhan and Big Brother Bai broke up!" Zi Long shrank her neck in fright when Ling'er yelled. It seemed that she would never meet a gentle woman in her life. Sister, princess, Dao Shuang'er, each one is better than the other, alas!

"This dead mouse, brother Zhan said he broke up with me, and he agreed. Where is his ability to mess around?! I was so mad. When brother Zhan needed a friend the most, he slipped away and promised to wait for my answer. , ran away before waiting for a day! Damn, hate, hate! - get out, get out!"

In desperation, Zi Ling and Zi Long had no choice but to lead everyone back down.

"Being dishonest and treacherous, you really are a idiot!" Ling'er said harshly.

"Ahhhhhh! Talking badly about people behind their backs early in the morning, it really is hard to raise a girl and a villain!" A lazy complaint came from the beam of the house, and a white shadow fell lightly. It was not Chinchilla Baiyu. Who is Tang?

"Damn you?!" Could it be that he had been--"Hmph, I didn't expect that Chinchilla Bai Yutang would be a gentleman! Hey, could it be that you cats and mice colluded to act again?!"

"Wrong! The black-hearted cat came for real this time. I knew he would come up with this trick sooner or later to force us all away! The upper three sects are the core of the entire martial arts world. It is too much for anyone to fight against the entire martial arts world!"

"Then you still leave Brother Zhan behind?!"

"He left me first, okay?! Why do you always prefer that cat? We five rats have nothing to say about our friends, but we also have to take into account the safety of the hundreds of people, old and young, in the empty island." ! So—" Bai Yutang pretended to be wronged.

"So, you will secretly help Brother Zhan, right?" Linger probed.

"Without me, Bai Yutang, how could that wounded cat and sick cat have reached Rakshasa? It is an indisputable fact that two fists are hard to beat with four hands! What's more, all the indiscretions have been drawn out this time!" Bai Yu Tang took a sip of tea leisurely and continued, "Big brother and fourth brother went back to Xingkong Island to continue to inquire about the news. I always felt that there was something wrong with Mao'er's master, so I had to check it out; Mr. Bao also has my two older brothers to take care of him. Just in case someone starts the Kaifeng Mansion to blackmail the cat, so that he won't be distracted; I just need to keep an eye on that stupid cat all the way, and if I can help him solve it in advance, I will solve it first, but I can't show my true face. To avoid the trouble of being trapped in the empty island, and to avoid being expelled by the stinky cat again! Unexpectedly, I, the dignified Chinchilla, hide my head and show my tail, when I can't see others!" The more Bai Yutang said, the more he felt that he was really wronged.

"You're the most open-minded mouse I've ever seen!" Ling'er patted Bai Yutang's shoulder vigorously, and praised seriously.

"Wow—thank you!" This compliment is really quite different.

"Then what about Rakshasa? What are you going to do?" Ling'er was thinking about her own pettiness.

"First help the cat rescue his ice beauty, and then let the two of them go far away, otherwise, the stubborn cat will come back to make amends! As for your father, just come back and tell him that Ruxue is safe, anyway, he has you. One daughter is enough for his old man!" Bai Yutang was surprised not to hear Linger's rebuttal to the last sentence.

"Take me there, okay?" Finally, Ling'er made up her mind and asked.

"Not good!" Bai Yutang said decisively without even thinking about it.

"Then I'm going to call someone to catch the mice now! - Come - oh!" Bai Yutang covered Ling'er's mouth, and hissed helplessly, what should he do with this bell? !

Royal Hotel, West Wing

Looking at the young man who was getting thinner and bloodshot in front of him, Bao Zheng couldn't help feeling heartbroken. This child must have stayed up all night!

"It's all Zhan Zhao's fault. It made my lord, sir, and the brothers worry!" Zhan Zhao felt guilty for a while when he was stared at by everyone's heartache. If he died, wouldn't my lord and others be very sad?

"You're not wrong! What's wrong is the late emperor's suspicion and the sinister heart—Zhan Huwei, have you decided to go to Rakshasa?" Bao Zheng's loving eyes caught the flash of reluctance in Zhan Zhao's eyes.

"Yes! This subordinate has made up his mind to go down, and I hope my lord will make it happen! The future of this trip is uncertain, this subordinate—maybe I won't be able to come back to follow my lord!—Please let my subordinate bid farewell!" Zhan Zhao knelt in front of Bao Zheng , I only hope that in the future, adults will not feel sad for themselves!

Zhanwei, why do you still worry about our feelings until now?Bao Zheng stretched out his hand to support Zhan Zhao, shook his head and sighed, "Go! We must rescue Miss Ruxue! The government is very happy to see that you belong to me in my lifetime! However, since you have made a vow with Miss Ruxue, you must keep it. Promise, no matter what the reason is, don't make the same mistakes as King Huai, don't let Miss Ruxue follow in her mother's footsteps and stick around for the rest of her life! Don't come back again, King Huai has his own explanation!"

"grown ups--"

"Kaifeng mansion is protected by five rats, you don't have to worry! Remember! If you come back and do stupid things and make unnecessary atonements, this mansion will be the first to forgive you!" Bao Zheng restrained his love and said sharply.

The adults already know it, and making such a decision that violates legal principles is all due to their absolute trust and love for themselves!Zhan Zhao's heart warmed, and the heaviness of the night finally dissipated. Knowing that this happened, he has no regrets in this life!And that little white mouse—it seems that he has already seen through his own thoughts, I hope he can act cautiously and don't get involved!

"Mr. Gongsun has come up with a plan that can help you divert the attention of people in the Jianghu and delay it for a while. Be careful on the way!"

"Yes! This subordinate understands!"

Bao Zheng and his party were left for dinner by King Huai, and they didn't leave until noon.The peddler on the opposite side of the hotel saw that Zhan Zhao, the fourth-rank imperial guard with a knife in a dark red official uniform, was helped by Zhang Long and Zhao Hu into another soft sedan chair, and returned to Kaifeng Mansion to continue recuperating——

It was night, the side door of the hotel was slightly opened, and two figures flashed out and disappeared into the night——
