Xu Zizhen was happy: "It seems like it's a coincidence that I came back. Tell me what happened." As he spoke, he sat down by himself, picked up an unknown teacup and took a sip of tea.
Wang Zhongfu said with a smile: "Brother Xu, the little girl you are looking for is really smart. In just over a month, she has made everyone in Prince Yun's house familiar with her. She also found out what you are most concerned about."
Liu Fengsui took over the conversation, but he gritted his teeth and said with an angry look in his eyes: "Brother, you and I all guessed wrong before. King Yun did not put my mother under house arrest, but... she was kept in a dungeon in his mansion.
Within.”
Xu Zizhen frowned. He really didn't expect that Zhao Kai, who seemed gentle and humble on the surface, would use such methods, and he still didn't understand why Zhao Kai detained Liu Fengsui's mother and what his purpose was.
Wang Zhongfu moved the cups and pots and other objects on the table and took out a few pieces of paper from his arms. These papers were of the same size. Xu Zizhen glanced at them and saw the words "upper left", "center right" and so on. He didn't know why, but then
When he came down, Wang Zhongfu's actions made him suddenly realize.
Those papers only had words written on the back, but when turned over, there were hand-drawn pictures. Wang Zhongfu pieced them together according to the words. There were nine pieces of paper in total, and they were pieced together into a large picture according to the nine-square grid pattern.
Wang Zhongfu waved his hand and said with admiration: "Brother Xu, please take a look. This is the layout of Prince Yun's Mansion. It was drawn by the dark green girl secretly and brought to me in batches."
Xu Zizhen leaned over and looked carefully, and saw that the picture was a floor plan of a building. Every house and corridor were clearly drawn, and what was particularly rare was that the name and name of each house were written in small capital letters.
The purpose, such as the main study room, master bedroom, flower hall, etc., is written clearly and clearly, and it is clear at a glance.
In the upper right corner of the picture is a garden, including rockeries, nurseries, etc. Xu Zizhen noticed that there was a place outlined with a red pen, and a small word "forbidden" was written next to it.
Xu Zizhen pointed here and said, "Is this the dungeon?"
Wang Zhongfu nodded: "Exactly."
Liu Fengsui said hurriedly: "Brother, Brother Wang has asked people to find out the number of guards in Prince Yun's Mansion, their shift habits, etc. Without further delay, why not go tonight..."
"Don't be busy." Xu Zizhen waved his hand, "Let me think about it first."
Liu Fengsui didn't dare to speak anymore, but his expression was still very anxious. He was a filial son, and naturally it was difficult to remain calm when he knew the whereabouts of his mother.
Xu Zizhen frowned slightly, just sitting at the table looking at the picture in front of him, holding a tea cup in his hand, his eyes not turning, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Wang Zhongfu, Liu Fengsui and Shui Liuli didn't dare to disturb him and kept silent. Ma San stood far away from the door, not daring to make a sound.
Time passed by little by little, and the sky finally turned completely dark. Wang Zhongfu personally lit a lamp and put it on the table. His slight movements made the small flame on the lamp flicker a few times.
Xu Zizhen seemed to be disturbed by the light and shadow and woke up. He stretched and stood up: "Okay, I know what to do."
Liu Fengsui asked hurriedly: "Brother, do you have any clever ideas?"
Xu Zizhen smiled: "There's nothing wrong with it. I'll accompany you directly into the house to save people in the middle of the night. With your Qinggong skills, no one will be able to find you, right?"
Liu Fengsui and Wang Zhongfu looked at each other in astonishment: "Is it that simple?"
Xu Zizhen said: "Of course, we need some cooperation from Brother Wang." At this point, he waved to Ma San at the door, "Old Ma, you look like the Stove Lord. You should be familiar with setting fire.
Are you familiar with the road?"
Ma San almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. If he looks black, he will definitely set fire to it?
Wang Zhongfu immediately understood the meaning, rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's not enough just to take advantage of the fire, why don't we make more noise?"
Xu Zizhen clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Master Jiu is Master Jiu after all."
Liu Fengsui was also a smart man, and he understood immediately: "Is the eldest brother going to take advantage of the chaos to enter the house? That's fine, but I just need to trouble Brother Wang to hurry up."
Xu Zizhen smiled and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, we won't go tonight."
Liu Fengsui opened his eyes wide and said, "Not today?"
Xu Zizhen yawned loudly and said, "I'm too tired from traveling these days. Brother Wang, hurry up and get me something to eat. I'll go to bed after I eat well."
Wang Zhongfu glanced at him and didn't ask anything else. He just responded with a smile and went down to prepare.
Liu Fengsui was about to ask again, but Xu Zizhen said to him again: "Don't be anxious just yet. You should also take a good rest and recuperate your energy. When I am ready, we will go rescue Auntie."
"This... okay, everything is up to brother's arrangement." Although Liu Fengsui was eager, he had no choice but to agree.
After a while, the dinner and banquet were arranged. Xu Zizhen and Shui Liuli ate their fill leisurely. Wang Zhongfu arranged a room for them, chatted briefly and left.
At midnight, the door of the house where Xu Zizhen lived suddenly opened slightly, and a dark figure slipped out gently. Looking around to see no one, he jumped up to the roof and quickly disappeared into the night. Inside the house,
Xu Zizhen was sitting alone by the bed, with an elusive smile on his lips.
About an hour later, the door was pushed open again, and the black figure came back into the house, pulling off the black scarf that covered his face, revealing Shui Liuli's stunning face.
Xu Zizhen had taken off his clothes and was half lying on the bed, and said lazily: "See you?"
Shui Liuli closed the door and walked over, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and there seemed to be a trace of doubt in her eyes: "I've seen it, but..."
Xu Zizhen said: "Do you want to ask me why I did this?"
Shui Liuli nodded, hesitated for a moment and then said: "This move is quite risky. If it's not what you guessed, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble."
Xu Zizhen smiled mysteriously: "I don't think I'm wrong. Anyway, we'll find out the day after tomorrow... Hey, I noticed that you seem to have gained some weight recently."
Shui Liuli was startled and was successfully diverted: "Ah? Is it true?"
"I'm not sure, but let me feel it and I'll know."
"Xu Lang, you...oh, it's so itchy!"
"Hey, this night clothes is pretty good, why don't you just wear it like this."
"Ah! Don't...you...uh!"
On the roof not far from the door, Xiao Nongyu spat softly and ran away with a blushing face.
…
For the next two days, Xu Zizhen stayed in Wang Zhongfu's house without going anywhere. He only ate and slept every day, or drank tea and chatted with Liu Fengsui, but he didn't know anything about rescuing people.
mentioned.
Liu Feng was worried in his heart, but he was embarrassed to rush him. Today was already the third day that Xu Zizhen returned to Bianjing, but he had no intention of setting out to save anyone, and he didn't even see Wang Zhongfu or Ma San today.
After dinner, Xu Zizhen went back to the house early. Soon the lights went out and he had obviously gone to sleep. Liu Feng had no choice but to go back to the house with a sense of disappointment. He lay on the bed and stared at the roof in a daze.
But just after midnight, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open. Xu Zizhen, dressed in black, appeared at the door. He crossed his arms and said with a smile: "The auspicious time has come, hurry up."
