The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 165
In the simple wing room, only a candle lamp on the table was burning alone.

Under the yellowish candlelight, I vaguely saw a girl lying on the bed. When the sound of footsteps outside the door disappeared, the sound of eating and drinking came from the next door, and the girl on the bed suddenly opened her eyes.

She quickly got out of bed, scanned the room, then walked to the door, and put her ear to the door to listen.

After confirming that there was no one outside, she opened the door and slipped out quietly.

The yard is small, there are not many rooms, and only three people live there.The last time she came here to observe secretly, Mu Huo occupied two rooms.

The main room is where he sleeps, and the first wing near the east side of the main room is where he usually retreats and practices. Now she searches the main room first. If the key is not in the main room, she will definitely retreat to the wing where Mu Huo practices.

Of course, it could also be on Mu Huo's body.

Cui Hengyue stepped into the main room and searched lightly, not sparing any corner.

A quarter of an hour later, Cui Hengyue stood in the open space in the middle of the room, scanned the room again, and left the main room after confirming that all corners had been searched.

When passing the first wing on the east side, Cui Hengyue heard Mu Huo's voice coming from inside.

"Huofeng, go to the next door to see if Miss Cui is awake."

"Yes, General."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue immediately quickened her pace, entered the second wing room on the east side, quickly took off her shoes, and put them back into the original appearance.

Go to bed, cover yourself with a quilt, and pretend to be asleep.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she heard the sound of the door opening.

Then footsteps sounded and stopped beside the bed.

"I slept soundly, it seems that I am really tired."

Huofeng stared at Cui Hengyue for a few times, then turned and left the room.

Hearing the sound of closing the door, Cui Hengyue did not open her eyes again, she gradually fell asleep in deep thought.

At this moment, Song Zhuoxing, Su Biwen and the others looked in the direction of the stairs with anxious expressions.

"What time is it, why hasn't the little lunatic come?" Zhang Wulang was in a hurry.

Li Benru glanced at Chi Ye who was sitting on the porch, and became anxious: "With Chi Ye's guards around, we don't have much chance of winning, but at least we can give it a try.

"Now, if the crazy girl doesn't come, we don't even have a chance to fight."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions were ugly.

At this moment, Yun Chen stepped onto the ring and said loudly, "Are you still competing? If not, we'll leave."

"Bi, please wait a moment for Captain Yundu, we will discuss the candidate right away."

Song Zhuoxing first stabilized Yun Chen, and then said to everyone: "Miss Cui must have not finished her work in the North Palace, so she can't rush over here.

"We won't wait for her today. Let's choose three of us ourselves. Let's compare this match first."

Li Benru echoed: "That's right, we still have to compete, what if we win."

So, through deliberation, everyone selected Song Zhuoxing, Su Biwen, and Li Bier.

All the contestants stood on the ring, and Yun Chen announced: "The contest begins."

Before the words fell, Su Biwen had already rushed out first.

Song Zhuoxing and Li Bier shot almost at the same time, closely behind.

The melee is imminent.

After a stick of incense, Song Zhuoxing, Su Biwen, and Li Bier lay on the ground with helplessness on their faces.

Seeing their appearance, Li Benru felt even more helpless.

Sure enough, he guessed right, without Cui Hengyue, they would definitely lose.

On this day, Cui Hengyue did not show up until the people in the Dizang Pavilion finished their dinner and were driven back to their room to sleep.

Song Zhuoxing was very worried, so he slipped out of the room quietly, avoided the guards, hid near the stairs, and waited quietly.

Song Zhuoxing didn't feel relieved until Cui Hengyue's figure finally appeared on the stairs at [-]:[-] pm.

When Cui Hengyue walked down the stairs, Song Zhuoxing grabbed Cui Hengyue's arm and pulled it aside.

"Who?" Cui Hengyue shot immediately.

Song Zhuoxing reacted quickly and grabbed Cui Hengyue's fist: "It's me."

Hearing his voice, Cui Hengyue gave up resisting and pulled out her hand: "It's so late, why are you here?"

Song Zhuoxing dragged her to a secluded place, and whispered: "You haven't shown up all day, I'm worried about you, are you okay?"

He cared about her?
Cui Hengyue looked up at Song Zhuoxing, the moonlight shrouded his handsome face like a knife-cut, worry condensed in his eyes, turned into starlight and shone brightly.

Her heart warmed up, and her tone subconsciously became gentle: "It's okay, it's just that I'm too tired from work today, so I took a rest in the North Hall, I didn't expect to wake up so late."

"It's good that you're fine, then you hurry back to the North Catacombs, I should go back too." Song Zhuoxing was about to go back to his room.

"Song Xiaolang--"

After Cui Hengyue called him to stop, he glanced around to make sure there was no one around, and then asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go down the mountain?"

Song Zhuoxing's heart moved: "Why do you ask me this question suddenly?"

"Just answer whether I want to or not." Cui Hengyue avoided answering.

Song Zhuoxing was silent: ".I can't go down the mountain yet."

"Okay, I see." Cui Hengyue finished speaking, turned and left.

Song Zhuoxing was full of doubts, staring at her moving back, motionless.

What does she mean?
In the next three days, Cui Hengyue won three meals from Huo Tao, but she never won a single meal against Huo Feng.

As for the contest in the South Hall, Cui Hengyue, Song Zhuoxing, and Li Bier worked together, losing twice and winning once.

This situation made her firm in her mind.

"Uncle Lin, are you ready?"

Cui Hengyue ordered Qionghua to stand guard outside the door, then tiptoed to avoid the debris on the ground and walked to Lin Jiang.

"it is done."

Lin Jiang put the two keys he had just made on the table, and unfolded the blueprint beside him: "Yueyue, take a look, is it exactly the same as the blueprint?"

Cui Hengyue sat down, compared the blueprint and the key, and praised: "Uncle Lin, you are really good. These two keys are exactly the same as the blueprint. General Mu Huo will definitely not be able to tell that they are fake."

The corners of Lin Jiang's lips rose slightly, but halfway up, the corners of Lin Jiang's lips pulled down again.

His expression was very serious: "Yueyue, I've thought about it for the past few days, it's still too dangerous for you to go to the North Hall to steal the key.

"Well, I'll steal it for you."

Cui Hengyue immediately objected: "No."

Lin Jiang: "Are you worried that I will be caught by them because of my lack of martial arts skills? Don't worry, I will definitely not be caught by them."

Even if he died, he would not die in the North Hall.

"No." Cui Hengyue shook his head and explained to him: "From the south hall to the north hall, you must pass through an aerial plank road, and there are guards guarding both ends of the plank road.

"If you knock out the guards at the south end, the guards at the north end will definitely report it to General Mu Huo or Commander Mu Feng immediately if they see it.

"At that time, you won't even be able to pass the plank road in the air, let alone the Shenyin Palace in the upper north hall."

Lin Jiang's face turned pale, and the worry in his eyes became more intense: "In this way, you can't pass the plank road."

Cui Hengyue smiled: "No, I can go there, don't forget, the king of Chu has allowed me to pass the skywalk at will.

"If I go to the North Hall, those guards won't stop me at all.

"Besides, I have been in and out of the North Hall during this period of time, and I know the North Hall far better than you.

"Even if things are revealed, I have a way to get out.

"So don't worry, let me go"
