Are you crashing the banquet? Come, let me tell you, in a moment we'll sit here, at the table with the kids!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui, Zhang Dingding arched his eyebrows with a face full of smiles, appearing very proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after hearing Zhang Dingding's words, Wang Cui couldn't help but have a twitching mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because how could the Censor-in-Chief and Junior Minister of Rites Zhang Erhe, such a cunning person, have such a son?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, why are you wearing men's clothing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming before Wang Cui, Situ Yaozu couldn't help but be surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren't you talking nonsense? If a man doesn't wear men's clothing, should he wear women's clothing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Situ Yaozu beside her, Zhang Dingding spoke with a face full of disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Zhang Dingding with a twitching mouth, Situ Yaozu froze in place, because he actually didn't know how to explain it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, don't be so surprised; isn't the Imperial Son-in-Law over there also wearing men's clothing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning her head, Wang Cui looked at Feng Suzhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after hearing Feng Suzhen's words, Zhang Dingding said with a confused face: \"If the Imperial Son-in-Law doesn't wear men's clothing, could he wear women's clothing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woo woo woo!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before Wang Cui could explain, a large hand directly covered her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey hey hey, Situ Yaozu, what are you doing? Where are you dragging Wang Cui to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Wang Cui being dragged away directly, Zhang Dingding became confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing that officials from all sides had arrived, Zhang Dingding sat in a corner and said: \"Forget it, I'll just eat the banquet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing? You almost suffocated me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving at the backyard, Wang Cui pushed Situ Yaozu away and couldn't help but scold him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Keep your voice down, my lady; do you know how many people will die if you say that one sentence!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui in fear, Situ Yaozu was almost red with heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he also didn't expect that Feng Suzhen's \"disguise\" would be seen through at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You guys also know that the Imperial Son-in-Law is a woman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Situ Yaozu with surprise, Wang Cui was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she had originally thought that only she knew about this matter, but now it seemed that this matter was not simple!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shh, say less; otherwise, if something happens, you won't be able to escape either!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui, Situ Yaozu hurriedly said: \"Old Bai, Old Bai, hurry up and go find Cousin to come over!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really, for the sake of a Juque sword, I'll be implicated and have my nine clans executed sooner or later because of you guys!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Situ Yaozu with disdain, Bai Yutang couldn't help but get angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Bai Yutang's departure with astonishment, Wang Cui couldn't help but widen her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because nowadays, a woman dressing as a man is already very bold, but she only realized today when she went out that there were so many people in this world who dressed as men?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you looking at? Old Bai won't like you! He's only interested in silver and the Juque sword!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui's eyes, which were almost stringing together, Situ Yaozu hurriedly scolded her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, she...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing at the position where Bai Yutang had left, Wang Cui had just intended to say something when she saw a figure running over quickly, holding a piece of threaded steel in his hand: \"Who, who said the Imperial Son-in-Law is a woman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Her! Magistrate Cai's adopted... son?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing at Wang Cui, Situ Yaozu hurriedly took half a step back, because Cousin Zhang Cheng looked like he had come to silence her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What adopted son? Isn't this a woman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui before him, Zhang Cheng froze in place and said: \"From now on, we are people on the same boat; I'll give you a gift. From now on, if the nine clans are executed, you'll be counted as one!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! What do you mean by counting me in for the execution of the nine clans!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Wang Cui hadn't even had time to speak before she was inexplicably on the boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because you discovered something you shouldn't have known!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui earnestly, Zhang Cheng stepped forward holding the threaded steel, and backhanded it into the artificial rockery at the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boom!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rocks shattered and immediately splashed in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Zhang Cheng's threaded steel, Wang Cui swallowed her saliva and didn't dare to say a word, because this kind of weapon was simply too fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she dared to refuse, she figured the other party would let her go right now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be afraid, my name is Zhang Cheng, Zhang Xinzhi; I value brotherhood the most. As long as you listen to me, we are people on the same boat. When the time comes for the nine clans to be executed, I definitely won't betray you! Besides, behind me, there is the Chai family, the Kaifeng Prefecture, the Grand Tutor's Mansion...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui earnestly, Zhang Cheng turned his head and said: \"Give her a diamond card for Heaven on Earth; this is proof!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, Cousin!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Situ Yaozu hurriedly nodded and handed over a diamond card engraved with the words \"Heaven on Earth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm going to handle other matters first; keep an eye on her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Patting Situ Yaozu's shoulder, Zhang Cheng turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he knew that if Wang Cui went out and shouted now, everyone would die together!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it's different if she has a diamond card for Heaven on Earth; framing someone might not necessarily succeed, but it would definitely drag Wang Cui into the water!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your cousin, will he really not betray me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Situ Yaozu with curiosity, Wang Cui was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rest assured, although my cousin is named Zhang Xinzhi, if something happens, none of us will be able to run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wang Cui earnestly, Situ Yaozu narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because ever since Feng Suzhen passed the Zhuangyuan exam, everyone seemed to have gotten on the boat together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cheng goes without saying; if he were to have an accident, Chai Wenyi and Pang Yu definitely couldn't run. With a pull and a tug, the Eight Virtuous Prince and Bao Zheng would all be dragged into the water, and more than half of the Great Song court would be taken down by him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Cheng: What is a conspiracy? This is a conspiracy. If you're not convinced, we'll see each other at the vegetable market!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Zhen: Is it necessary?
