Jiang Ping made a move to defeat the four mice and the royal cat to show off his power.
He had a strange dream. When Zhan Zhao woke up again, the sunlight shining through the cracks in the stone above told him that it was a new day.
This was the fourth day! Zhan Zhao counted the days and was burning with anxiety. Whether it was official or personal, he didn't want anything to happen to Kaifeng Prefecture or White Jade Hall. However, from that day onwards, whenever he mentioned business to Bai Yutang, that fellow would immediately change the subject, not taking his warning to heart at all. This made him very angry.
Bai Yutang always had a way to make him, who was always good-tempered, angry. Sometimes, Zhan Zhao even felt that the anger he had lost in the past three days was much less than in the past three years.
"Bai Jadehall, what do you want?”He could not help but mutter to himself.
.
Zhan Zhao didn't tell Bai Yutang about Huiyun. On one hand, he didn't think he would take it to heart. On the other hand, he didn't think it would be useful to tell him. Judging from Bai Yutang's bad attitude towards officials, even if he knew that they had known each other since they were young, it was unlikely that he would change his attitude towards him.
Just as he was thinking about these things that gave him a headache, he suddenly heard the sound of a mechanism being activated. Zhan Zhao sat up and looked in the direction of the sound--it was the stone wall on the left!
There was also a secret door here? Zhan Zhao looked over warily. Bai Yutang had suddenly walked out from here, which was quite different from his usual habits. Could it be that the white mouse was up to something again?
To his surprise, the person who appeared this time wasn't Bai Yutang, but a small but shrewd man with a feathered fan.
The man's eyes lit up when he saw Zhan Zhao.""This must be the Imperial Cat Exhibition Lord of Kaifeng Prefecture! I am Jiang Ping. My fifth brother has offended you. I hope you won't take offense.”
"Swordsman Jiang, you're being too serious." Zhan Zhao smiled. Jiang Ping? It turned out to be the fourth brother of Bai Jadehall, the very smart child back then.
"I wonder what Fourth Master wants to do with me?”
If someone else were to say this, anyone would think that the other party was extremely angry. However, for some reason, Jiang Ping felt that not only did the young man in front of him not have a trace of anger, but he seemed to have said something that was only natural. He could not help but size up the young man in front of him and could not help but exclaim in his heart. In the past, he thought that his fourth brother was already a dragon among men. Now, looking at him, Zhan Zhao was even more stunning.
It was called stunning because she was too outstanding, but it was not a feminine beauty. It was a feeling that made people feel outstanding from the bottom of their hearts.
" No wonder Fifth Brother is so abnormal..." Vaguely, Jiang Ping felt something and had an idea in his heart.
"Lord Zhan must be joking." On the surface, Jiang Ping still smiled in a neither servile nor overbearing manner." The four of us were not on the island a few days ago, so we didn't know that such a thing happened. I came here now partly because I hope that Sir Zhan won't take offense, and partly because I want to talk to you about my fifth brother and San Bao.”
. As expected of Jiang Ping. With just a few words, he shifted the focus to serious matters. Obviously, he didn't want Zhan Zhao to pursue the matter of Bai Jadehall locking him up. Hence, he smiled faintly and said,"
"Don't worry, Fourth Master. I'm not a petty person. I came to visit Wuyi this time because I want to get San Bao back.”
Jiang Ping nodded, and his evaluation of Zhan Zhao rose another level. "This is not the place to talk. Lord Zhan, please follow me.”
Walking out of the dungeon, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but feel as if a lifetime had passed. He had finally come out before the deadline! He hoped that with the other four rats around, the task of convincing Bai Jadehall would go smoother.
When he arrived at the hall again, Zhan Zhao saw the others. Other than Bai Yutang, the one who seemed to be the most mature should be Lu Fang. The one holding the two hammers was Xu Qing, and the one sitting next to Lu Fang was sizing him up with an unfriendly expression. It should be Han Zhang.
"You're Zhan Zhao?"
The first to speak was Han Zhang. His tone was not very friendly.
"Second Brother! Don't be rude!" Lu Fang shouted. However, he didn't do anything to stop him. Instead, he turned around and sized Zhan Zhao up carefully.
"I am Zhan Zhao." Zhan Zhao smiled nonchalantly.”
" Young Master Zhan," Lu Fang deliberated over his words," I'll call you that for now!" The four of us have just returned from Kaifeng. We probably know about the Emperor's decree. Why don't you tell me now how you plan to deal with this matter?”
" I don't dare to punish you." Zhan Zhao glanced at Bai Yutang, who had not looked at him again." I just hope that Brother Bai can return the three treasures and follow me to the capital to apologize to the Emperor."”
"You think you can go just because you say so?" At this moment, Xu Qing stood up unhappily." Our Old Fifth is not the kind of person who you can kill and torture as you please. Go to the capital to beg for forgiveness? You make it sound so easy!"
"Third Bro!" Lu Fang once again shouted at his brother to stop him. At the same time, he turned to look at Zhan Zhao questioningly, clearly hoping that he would give an explanation.
Zhan Zhao knew that if he didn't give them an explanation, they would never let him go. He looked at Bai Yutang and met his gaze.
Hence, he smiled.
"This Zhan swears to the heavens that as long as this Zhan is still alive, I will ensure Brother Bai's safety!”
Immediately, Bai Yutang was stunned. It was as if a certain string in his heart had been touched by something.
The other four rats did not expect Zhan Zhao to make such a serious oath. They looked at each other. In the end, the third rat, Xu Qing, said with a lack of confidence,"
"If you say it's safe, then it's safe. Why should we believe you?”
"With Zhan Zhao's conscience!" Zhan Zhao said. His clear eyes were extremely convincing, making the five of them believe that he would definitely do what he said!
"Alright then!" Lu Fang nodded and stood up." Lord Zhan, we will believe your words for the time being. However, the Five Void Rats have always been related. Fifth Brother cannot be taken away by you just like that. How about this, if you can defeat the five of us one by one, we'll return the three treasures and let you take our fifth brother away. But the prerequisite was that he couldn't harm Fifth Brother's life. I think that you, who used to be a famous swordsman in the martial arts world, must be very good at martial arts! The people of the martial world have their own ways to solve the problem. Do you agree with this?”
"I have no objections."
Immediately, the other four rats let out a relieved smile. Only Bai Yutang kept looking at Zhan Zhao, thinking about something.
That night, Zhan Zhao was in the room Lu Fang had arranged for him, carefully wiping his own watchtower. Recalling every move of the White Jade Hall these days, he couldn't help but think,"
"After so many years, this White Jade Hall is still so straightforward and cute. He really hasn't changed at all.”
At the same time, Bai Yutang was also sitting under a big tree in his garden. Beside him was his portrait. When he looked up, he could see the shadow reflected by the light in Zhan Zhao's room.
"Maybe I should…"
……
The next day, according to the deadline given by the Emperor, Zhan Zhao would have to face the challenges of the Five Rats one by one.
The terrain of Xiankong Island was advantageous to the Five Rats. Even so, Zhan Zhao still defeated the first four rats one by one. When Jiang Ping was also defeated, he could not help but reveal a touching smile.
All that was left was Bai Yutang!
At the highest point of Xiankong Island, Zhan Zhao found Bai Yutang, who was already waiting there.
The watchtower appeared, and the shadow of the painting appeared.
In the end, who would win and who would lose in this competition?
