After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

Chapter 108 Escape Unscathed

"That's right." Cui Rongrong's eyes were calm. "But this birthday banquet carefully planned by the Sixth Prince was ruined by Lord Shen. Do you think the Sixth Prince will let him go easily?"

Song Yanyi and Song Yanchen had originally hoped to use the Empress Dowager's birthday to win the Emperor's favor, but now that their hopes have been dashed, they naturally feel bad.

Jiang Zhen chuckled, a sly look flashing in his eyes, "Miss Cui has a deep understanding of the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince. As you said, the Sixth Prince has ordered the Ministry of Justice to 'take special care' of Shen Jianyi."

"Even if Shen Jianyi can escape unscathed, he will certainly be seriously injured. After all, being disrespectful in the palace is no small matter."

Cui Rongrong looked at Jiang Zhen calmly, with a hint of inquiry in her tone: "There seems to be a deep meaning in what Mr. Jiang said. You came to visit me in person. I'm afraid you have something to ask of me, Cui?"

Jiang Zhen's smile deepened: "Miss Cui is really sharp. You saw through me just as I was about to speak."

"There is indeed a difficult matter that requires Miss Cui's assistance. Moreover, this matter must be handled by Miss Cui."

After he finished speaking, his expression became extremely serious.

Cui Rongrong raised her eyebrows, and said with some interest: "Master Jiang, please speak."

"I mentioned earlier that some people with ill intentions had evil intentions towards Luoxian Tower." Jiang Zhen's tone was calm, but he could not hide his worry, and his eyes swept out the window.

"Thanks to the unique potion carefully developed by Miss Cui, the number of troublesome people surrounding Luoxian Tower has finally decreased a little."

There was a hint of helplessness in his words, but then he changed the subject and a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "However, there are still a few guys who are like oxhide candy dipped in honey, clinging to me stubbornly. I hope Miss Cui can lend a hand to me and solve this thorny problem once and for all."

Jiang Zhen's eyes were sharp, and Cui Rong declined the request without even a second thought: "I have no intention of getting involved in the grudges and disputes of the martial arts world. It will not benefit me in any way and will only cause trouble."

Jiang Zhen seemed to have anticipated this. He chuckled and continued, "As long as Miss Cui is willing to lend a hand, I can not only ensure your personal safety, but I am also willing to meet one condition of yours. No matter what it is, as long as it is within my ability, I, Jiang Zhen, will never break my promise. This move is not only for me personally, but also for the peace of Luoxian Tower. Please consider it, Miss Cui."

Cui Rongrong's eyes were deep as if she was weighing something. After a long while, she stared at Jiang Zhen and said in a low and powerful voice, "Really? Can you put forward any conditions?"

Jiang Zhen nodded heavily, his expression solemn: "One condition, in exchange for Miss Cui's help, this deal is extremely fair in my opinion."

He paid close attention to every subtle change in Cui Rongrong's expression. After a moment, he heard her slowly say, "Master Jiang, when do you need me to take action?"

Seeing that she finally agreed, Jiang Zhen smiled again: "Tomorrow night, at the same time, I will visit you again. It's late at night, so I don't want to disturb you. Miss Cui, please go to bed early."

After he finished speaking, he disappeared in an instant, like a ghost blending into the night.

Cui Rongrong watched the black shadow completely disappear into the darkness, then slowly closed the window, and the room returned to silence.

Late at night the next day, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Cui Rong, wearing a nightgown, sat quietly in front of the window, gazing at the bright moon.

Soon, a familiar black shadow appeared silently in front of her.

Cui Rongrong stood up. Jiang Zhen still smiled and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to have kept Miss Cui waiting for so long."

"Lead the way." Cui Rong said in a flat tone.

Jiang Zhen said nothing more, stepped aside to make way, and led Cui Rong through the night.

Soon, the two came to a remote and secluded courtyard.

This place is in a secluded location and is surrounded by desolate areas. Cui Rong looked around and found that the place was heavily guarded, with vigilant guards filling the dark places. Occasionally, she could faintly hear the clinking sound of forged weapons.

She turned to look at Jiang Zhen, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "Is this the base against Luoxian Tower?"

Jiang Zhen nodded slightly, confirming her guess: "Luoxianlou accidentally ruined their big deal. Although I apologized sincerely, they refused to give in and repeatedly provoked me. If they hadn't pressed me step by step, I wouldn't have chosen such an extreme measure."

Cui Rongrong nodded slightly and glanced at the guards. They were all tall and strong with muscular bodies, and she unexpectedly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"What are they doing?" she asked curiously.

"The men of Wanqi Pavilion." Jiang Zhen smiled, his eyes glittering with cunning, "Miss Cui has been in the frontier for six years. You must have heard of this famous name in the martial arts world. How many peerless magic weapons came from their hands? It's a pity..."

Before he could finish his words, Cui Rong interrupted him: "This is the territory of Wanqi Pavilion?"

Jiang Zhen raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised: "Yes, the Wanqi Pavilion has branches all over the place, but this is their core."

"This place is remote and the terrain is rugged, so it's difficult for outsiders to disturb it. Miss Cui's reaction is a bit confusing to me."

Cui Rong said nothing, but her heart was in turmoil.

Wanqi Pavilion was actually hiding here. Looking back, the bruised and battered man whom she and her father met on the street in her previous life was probably the one who escaped from Jiang Zhen. No wonder he became so taciturn later.

It’s really unexpected that there would be such a coincidence in this life!

She suddenly felt grateful to Jiang Zhen. If he hadn't come to her on his own initiative, how would she have had the opportunity to intervene in advance and perhaps meet that man again.

Zhang Wen has led his army out of the capital, and must be close to the border now. With the help of Wanqi Pavilion, it will undoubtedly be a great help!

Cui Rongrong gathered her thoughts and looked at Jiang Zhen seriously: "If I can make Wanqi Pavilion no longer be an enemy of Luoxian Tower, or even form an alliance with it, will Lord Jiang be willing to let Wanqi Pavilion go?"

Jiang Zhen pondered for a moment, "If Miss Cui can really accomplish this, I naturally have no objection, but those people in Wanqi Pavilion have always been stubborn, so this matter may not be simple."

Cui Rongrong raised a meaningful smile and said, "As long as Master Jiang believes in me, I am willing to give it a try."

She was confident that she could convince that person.

Seeing her firm attitude, Jiang Zhen finally nodded and agreed: "Since Miss Cui said so, I naturally have no objection."

"I hope Miss Cui will succeed soon. However, if the people from Wanqi Pavilion do something bad to you, I can't guarantee that I can let you escape unscathed."

Cui Rong gently waved her hand, signaling him to be patient: "Master Jiang, please wait a moment."

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure leaped into the courtyard as lightly as the night wind.

Jiang Zhen couldn't help but feel nervous when he witnessed this scene.
