Zhong Mingyuan said: "Unless you promise to help me stop the business, I will send people to prepare delicious food and build a pavilion for Concubine Li to live in, and let them continue to go west. If you are willing to help, we will still good accompany!"
Only now did Zhou Rui realize that she had boarded the pirate ship and could not get off. She was filled with regret for a moment, but she had to fight to the end. Anyway, she could not retreat now. If she fought forward, she might still have a chance to survive!
However, I am worried that if the current situation continues, if Shengshi counterattacks and solves the problem again, let alone regaining Shengshi's heart, even surviving will become a luxury.
Zhou Rui has seen Sheng Guoer's methods and determination in dealing with traitors. He is absolutely ruthless and will not leave any chance for his opponents and those who betrayed him to breathe.
Sheng Guoer's un-"Motherly" behavior was repeated again and again, which made Zhou Rui already have lingering fears.
So Zhou Rui thought about it and felt that she couldn't beat Sheng Guoer at all. At this time, she thought of a person, a person who often gave her guidance behind her back.
Although this person is disabled, she has a very wise mind. She has taught Zhou Rui more than once how to get along with Sheng Guoer, how to run the store Sheng Guoer entrusted to her, and how to build a good relationship. Zhou Rui has learned a lot from this. It also helped Zhou Rui gain Sheng Guoer's deep trust.
But only this time, Zhou Rui made the decision on impulse without consulting this person. As a result, he is currently riding a tiger.
This person has the power to reach heaven and earth. He can pinch and count. However, his hands and feet are broken and he cannot move freely.
She once said that Zhou Rui must not betray Sheng Guoer, otherwise he will be doomed. However, Zhou Rui has a traitor in his life and will definitely betray him once because of love. She also told Zhou Rui that if that day comes, he will come to find her. !
When Zhou Rui thought of this, she felt a sudden change in her heart. She quietly made arrangements, put on her gauze hat and dressed up very mysteriously. She quietly left the south gate and drove her carriage all the way to Jiyou Valley in Cuiwei Mountain.
This is a small valley. The place where the foreign master originally lived was very simple. Later, after some repairs by Zhou Rui, it turned into a small mountain residence. The man did not like luxury but liked tranquility and elegance, so This small building has been repaired like a fairyland. The bamboo house and bamboo chairs are hidden in the mountains and forests. The vegetation is lush and there are often some small animals staying and playing in the small courtyard.
Zhou Rui got off the car in front of Chai Fei, walked over and gently opened the door, but saw a child running out. When he saw Zhou Rui, he smiled happily and said: "Sister Zhou Rui!" Then the child turned around and shouted: "Master, Zhou Rui Sister Rui is here!"
Only a middle-aged woman's voice was heard in the room: "Tell her to come in!"
Zhou Rui walked into the house with a smile, and saw a middle-aged woman with long silver hair combed over her shoulders and a somewhat scarred and ugly face, slumped on the mat. Although she looked tired, her eyes were very sharp!
As soon as Zhou Rui entered the room, she knelt on the ground and said, "This disciple has met the master!"
The woman said in a low voice: "You are finally here, traitor!"
Zhou Rui was startled and asked tremblingly: "Master, why did master say that to me?"
The woman slammed the table and shouted angrily: "My master told you not to betray Sheng Guoer, don't you know?"
Zhou Rui trembled and said, "Disciple, I just want to be with Sheng Shi!"
The woman sighed and said: "It is fate. I told you that Shengshi will be yours. If you don't act like a monster, nothing will happen to you. But you are eager for quick success and instant benefit and always use your thoughts to think about others!" You know, what kind of person is Sheng Guoer? Although she asked Sheng Shi to get close to the princess, she didn't say that Sheng Shi would definitely marry her! Besides, the princess was born to that bitch Li Guifei, so she was naturally extremely arrogant. With such a strong character, how can I marry her as my wife?"
Zhou Rui was stunned and said: "Master, do you know Concubine Li?"
The woman sighed and said: "It's all in the past, why are you asking about this!"
Then the woman suddenly said sternly: "You are in great danger, why do you still have the time to ask this?"
Zhou Rui came back to her senses and hurriedly begged: "Master, you said that if I really betray Sheng Guoer out of love one day, I will come to you for rescue. Please save me!"
"You have always been very kind to me. In this way, I will try my best to save your life. Whether I can save you or not depends on your luck!" The woman said while fiddling with her calculations.
Zhou Rui had tears in her eyes after hearing this, as if grasping a life-saving straw, she kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, Master, thank you Master!"
The woman calculated and said: "Now that you have time to retreat, I will give you a sentence, which is to cultivate the plank road openly and use it secretly."
Zhou Rui said in confusion: "Master, can you explain it more clearly?"
The woman said: "Zhong Mingyuan said that you were bullying the secret gang, so you should just bully the secret gang to the end. I will teach you a sentence. When Zhong Mingyuan makes things difficult for you, just say: 'Sheng Guo'er is protected by koi carp, so it is difficult for her to do so." It disturbs her foundation, so she can only get small profits and cannot dream of big profits!'"
Zhou Rui asked: "Master, does Sheng Guoer really have a koi to protect her?"
The woman said meaningfully: "This woman is not the person she is at this time, but the person she was at that time. She can't be known to others!"
Zhou Ruiruo said with enlightenment: "It seems that I can never betray her in this life!"
The woman said: "Unless, unless you can find the location of her koi god and kill the golden koi, Sheng Guoer is destined to eat you!"
Zhou Rui was silent for a moment and said, "I don't want to hurt Sheng Guoer, I just want to be with Sheng Shi."
The woman said: "Then you are on the wrong track. You should go to Sheng Shi's side, follow him, and let him see your goodness. Your goodness needs to be brought out by others. If you blindly treat him well, Sheng Shi I can only express gratitude to you, not feelings!”
Zhou Rui realized something after hearing this, and said with a wry smile: "Maybe I am really wrong, what should I do?"
The woman said: "Don't panic, you should make it clear to Zhong Mingyuan now that you will personally go out and clean up Shengshi!"
Zhou Rui understood it and said: "Master, I understand, you have to strive for happiness by yourself, I will prepare now!"
As soon as Zhou Rui left, the woman said calmly: "If I really know where Sheng Guoer's koi is, I will definitely avenge this, along with the revenge of that bitch Li Guifei! It's a pity that I now have four limbs Being disabled, I can only use Zhou Rui step by step and control her to quietly get rid of Sheng Guoer and Concubine Li in the end. I will not make the same mistake as my sister again!"
Back home, Zhou Rui found Zhong Mingyuan and proposed to kill Sheng Shi personally.
Zhong Mingyuan didn't believe it at first, but Zhou Rui knew that Zhong Mingyuan was very suspicious, so he simply lied to him to the end, saying: "I heard from Sheng Guo'er when I came back that Sheng Shi had agreed to be the consort, and I have nothing to do with this heartless man. But I’m nostalgic, this time I’m going to take action personally, and I will definitely eradicate the Sheng family!”
Zhong Mingyuan sent someone to the Shengjia store to inquire, but Zhou Rui had already let the news out a long time ago, and now the guys in the Shengjia store are spreading rumors that Sheng Shi is going to be the consort!
After Zhong Mingyuan got the news, he saw Zhou Rui's appearance again, and he understood it in his heart, so he said: "It would be best if shopkeeper Zhou did it himself. I wish you immediate success!"
Zhou Rui took the Zhong family's servants and prepared some tea stalls along the road, with the word "Zhong" written on the signboards.
Concubine Li and her party passed by the tea stall where Zhou Rui was, and everything seemed to be exactly as arranged by Sheng Guoer, with no changes.
As soon as Sheng Shi saw Zhou Rui, she immediately laughed. Su Jin looked at the happy Sheng Shi doubtfully, and then looked at the beautiful Zhou Rui. She suddenly felt suspicious and grabbed Sheng Shi who was about to get out of the car. He asked solemnly: "Who is she?"
Sheng Shi smiled and said, "Oh, her name is Zhou Rui, she is a shopkeeper in my family, and we are good friends. I'll go say hello to her!"
Su Jin didn't let go, her eyes were full of coldness, which meant that if Sheng Shi dared to get out of the car to find Zhou Rui, he would kill him.
But Sheng Shi ignored her, just smiled and slowly pulled out his arm, and got off the carriage amidst Princess Sujin's astonished expression.
When Zhou Rui saw Sheng Shi, she flew over happily, handed over a bowl of tea soup, and said, "You must be thirsty after walking all the way! This is your favorite jasmine tea!"
Sheng Shi was indeed thirsty. He took the jasmine tea soup and drank it all in one gulp. Zhou Rui wiped his sweat for him, and then wiped his lips for him with a smile.
This series of actions made Su Jin jealous, and he got out of the car immediately. Prince Rong didn't even react. He sighed, but Su Jin had already got out of the car, came between Zhou Rui and Sheng Shi, coughed and said: " What a shabby tea stall, Shengshi, go back!"
Sheng Shi said: "Princess, let's rest here for a while, everyone is tired!"
At this moment, Prince Rong and Concubine Li also got off the carriage. Prince Rong said: "Su Jin, don't mess around. Let's take a good rest here."
The servants of the Zhong family secretly admired him: the shopkeeper trained by Sheng Guoer is different, and he can attract customers to our Zhong family shop in a few seconds.
A servant of the Zhong family stepped forward and said to Princess Sujin: "My dear sir, please rest at our Zhong family. Our Zhong family's refreshments are much better than those of the Sheng family!"
Sheng Shi looked at Zhou Rui strangely, and Zhou Rui winked at him. Sheng Shi thought Zhou Rui was using some strategy to deal with the Zhong family, so he remained silent.
Zhou Rui said: "Yes, please have a taste."
Prince Rong said: "I thought I could taste the delicacies from Sheng Guoer's family, but I have to take a long way around. Okay, let's try other food first!"
Just when Prince Rong was about to taste Zhong's pastries, Sheng Guoer suddenly felt a sense of danger, because she saw the little koi again. The little koi became extremely nervous at this moment, often depicting a bamboo forest. It looks like a place, and there is a faint black air in this bamboo forest!
Sheng Guoer regained her composure, and Meng Xingzhou asked with concern from the side: "What's wrong? Are you worried that Sheng Shi and the others didn't provide good hospitality?"
Sheng Guoer said: "Something's wrong, little koi warned, something must have happened. This time, it's a bamboo forest. By the way, is there a bamboo forest nearby?"
Meng Xingzhou said: "There is a bamboo forest in Jiyou Valley in Cuiwei Mountain. I went there when I was a child, but I don't know if it is there now!"
Sheng Guoer made preparations and said, "I want to go there and have a look!"
Meng Xingzhou said: "Do you think there is a problem there?"
Sheng Guoer shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, but I always feel something is wrong. If I don't go there, I will feel uneasy!"
Meng Xingzhou pondered for a moment, picked up the sword and said, "I'll go with you!"
Sheng Guoer looked at her husband with a smile and said, "Aren't you afraid of danger?"
Meng Xingzhou smiled slightly and said, "Ever since I got you, I don't know what danger is!"
