Chapter 153

Several people prepared separately, Niu Youdao waved to Hei Mudan again, pointed to his hair, "I also want to change my clothes to avoid people's eyes, help me to comb my hair." He walked to the side of the stone and sat down.

Hei Mudan couldn't help laughing, found her own comb, walked behind him, helped him comb, and teased: "Master Dao, we are so close and love each other, you are not afraid of being misunderstood by others?"

"Misunderstanding?" Niu Youdao snorted, "You claimed that I watched you take a bath, is there any bigger misunderstanding than this?"

Black Peony laughed "giggling", the flowers trembled wildly, and the sound was like a silver bell, which made everyone look at it strangely, and it was hard to suspect that there was something wrong between the two of them.

Niu Youdao closed his eyes, and thought of the ugly woman who often combed his hair, she was really careful, the tenderness and care could be felt in every strand of hair, much better than this woman...

Castle Peak County.

In the wilderness, the army camped together, the horses refused to line up, the flags were unfurled, and the flag with the word "Shang" was blowing in the wind.

The cross-blocked mountain pass, the fortified barriers, the garrison on the wall stared at the wilderness, and the patrolling personnel looked exhausted.

The Jinzhou army of the Zhao State was pressing down on the border, and the Nanzhou of the Yan State assembled heavy troops to defend. The Shang Dynasty Zong took advantage of Xu Xingshi to question the crime, and captured the entire Qingshan County in one fell swoop. Most of the defeated troops are now sticking to the pass.

The behavior of the Shang Dynasty Zong made the princes who supported their own troops ready to move, and the whole Great Yan might fall into the flames of war at any time, with internal and external troubles, the imperial court urgently sent people to negotiate.

After several rounds of negotiations, Shang Chaozong suspended the attack. In fact, relying on the borrowed Guangyi County troops, it would be powerless to occupy it if it continued to fight.

In the distance, a group of cavalry came rumblingly, flying the flag with the word "phoenix". Feng Ruonan, who was wearing a battle armor and a white horse with a silver spear, led the horse, followed by more than a dozen monks with swords on their backs, and thousands of cavalry rumbled behind.

The horn on the sentry tower blew, the gate of the camp was wide open, and the horses were moved to the sides. A group of people in the Chinese army tent walked out quickly. The leader was Shang Chaozong. Shang Shuqing also put on the battle armor and followed her brother closely, with no veil on her face. At this time, no one cares about this.

Feng Ruonan rode his horse into the camp, stopped urgently, and the people behind him split up to the left and right.

He jumped off his horse, threw the gun in his hand to his subordinates, and strode towards Shang Chaozong who was coming to meet him. He drew out the command arrow from his waist, knelt down on one knee, held the command arrow and said, "Luckily, the humble post is not disgraceful. The rebels in Si'an County have all been wiped out. I am here to report to the commander in chief!"

Shang Chaozong took the command arrow, handed it to Lan Ruoting beside him, then lifted Feng Ruonan up with both hands, looked at the dusty woman in front of him, and said with emotion: "Ma'am, you have worked hard all the way!"

The formal procedure has been completed, and Feng Ruonan felt uncomfortable and a little embarrassed by the in-laws between the husband and wife under the watchful eyes of everyone. He swayed a bit, and broke away from Shang Chaozong's support, "If the commander-in-chief has no other orders, I will resign as a humble officer."

Shang Chaozong smiled dryly, and lowered his hands a little stiffly.

Lan Ruoting hurriedly said to the side: "Princess, take Wangfei down to rest."

Shang Shuqing came out, saluted and said: "Sister-in-law has worked hard, go and wash."

Seeing Shang Shuqing, Feng Ruonan immediately smiled, took her hand, and left with Shang Shuqing talking and laughing.

In fact, being ugly also has the advantages of being ugly. It is not unreasonable that ugly people carry more blessings, at least it is not easy to make women jealous.

At least Feng Ruonan has always been kind to Shang Shuqing, and sometimes even holds Shang Shuqing a little bit, expressing that he doesn't care about her appearance, for fear of hurting her accidentally.

The longer she got in touch with Shang Shuqing, the more Feng Ruonan felt sorry for her, character, talent, temperament, figure, etc., who is not a high-class woman, but was ruined by a face, God is so unfair!

Every time she sees Shang Shuqing, she feels that God is actually good to her.

Not long after they settled here, there was movement on the other side of the col.

The gate of the pass was opened with a silent whimper, and the horses refused to enter the gate were quickly moved away by the soldiers. A group of more than ten horses rushed out, ran all the way down the rugged mountain road, and rushed towards the army of the company in the wilderness.

The leader, wearing a fluttering black cloak, with gray temples, fair face, and gloomy eyes, was Ga Miaoshui.

He is not only the eunuch close to Emperor Yan, but also the eunuch of CRRC, and also the negotiator sent by Yanjing this time.

The party rushed to the gate of the barracks and stopped. After getting a notification, they all got off their horses before letting them in.

As soon as he entered the gate of the camp, his meridians were sealed off again, and then he continued to let him go, and was led straight to the tent of the Chinese army.

In the tent of the Chinese army, the hanging battle map has been lowered to cover it, and the Shang Dynasty Zong sat on it.

Bai Yao stood guard with his sword in his arms, and there were also some disciples of Tianyumen who were staring at the visitor covetously.

In any case, the royal status of Shang Dynasty Zong is still there and has not been banned. After Ga Miaoshui and others entered, they still clasped their fists together and saluted: "I have seen the county king!"

Shang Chaozong said in a deep voice: "It's meaningless to talk about it any longer. Those are the conditions. If you agree, let's go. If you don't agree, see you on the battlefield!"

Ga Miaoshui straightened up, "My lord, it's impossible to agree to everything. If you all agree to you, all the princes will follow suit, and the country of Yan will be plunged into disaster immediately!"

Shang Chaozong: "If you don't agree, what else is there to talk about!"

城 尕 尕: "The last line of the city has given me the last line. It is impossible to rule Zhou Shouxian. Qingshan County can be scratched by the prince, and the court can also be appointed, but it is impossible for the public to tell the world! Except for these two points, the court can only give concessions. See you on the battlefield of the grandfather, then you will see how long this man can resist this! "

Crash! Shang Chaozong suddenly stood up, glaring at each other.

Lan Ruoting hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, your majesty is his uncle after all, since your majesty has already made concessions, my lord might as well take a step back for the sake of family affection!"

So after some persuasion, a war seemed to be over, and the two sides signed an agreement, each holding a copy.

Witnessing this scene, the Tianyumen monks on the side looked happy, and the Tianyumen's sphere of influence has expanded again, swallowing a whole county!

Ga Miaoshui, who slowly put away the agreement, looked unhappy, staring at Shang Chaozong and said: "Some things are best stopped in moderation, and if the trouble continues, it will not be good for the prince. If the man is innocent and he is guilty of the jade, if there is another time, it is impossible to be patient forever. The prince will weigh the consequences himself. The prince should know what I mean!"

Lan Ruoting smiled and said, "Eunuch Ga, do you mean the one hundred thousand crow generals?"

As soon as these words came out, Ga Miaoshui and Bai Yao's expressions changed at the same time. I didn't expect that Lan Ruoting would reveal this secret in public. How could this be nonsense.

Shang Chaozong looked calm.

Lan Ruoting laughed again: "Eunuch Ga, now that things have happened, you might as well clarify some things. You must know better than me what the consequences would be if the prince was planted in the sky prison. Someone wanted to put the prince to death! I was also forced to operate in the capital and use the guise of 'a hundred thousand crows'. If it wasn't for this, the prince might not be able to leave the prison alive!"

Ga Miaoshui narrowed her eyes suddenly, her cheeks twitched violently, she flicked her cape, and strode away.

When he was about to leave the tent, he paused again, turned his head and stared sharply at Shang Chaozong, remembering Song Jiuming's words on the gate tower, let the tiger go back to the mountain!

After watching Ga Miaoshui leave, Bai Yao, holding a sword in his arms, said, "Mr. Lan, what did you mean just now? Why can't I understand?"

Lan Ruoting slowly turned around and looked at him, "The meaning is very simple. The Hundred Thousand Crows General is just a cover and doesn't exist at all! The prince was in danger in the capital and had to find a way to escape. Even if he left the capital, he couldn't escape the murderous hand of the imperial court. In order to gain the support of your faction, he had to resort to clever tricks to borrow troops, until today he took down Qingshan County, all the way was planned!"

Bai Yao's complexion also became a little ugly, and he made a fool of Tianyumen!

He slowly walked up to Shang Chaozong, "My lord, some jokes are not allowed!"

Shang Chaozong remained expressionless.

Lan Ruoting stepped forward, "Master! Did Tianyumen lose anything? It didn't lose anything, but instead gained such a great benefit. Is there any harm in having the prince guard this county for Tianyumen?"

"In terms of ability, the prince is no worse than Feng Lingbo. After all these years, is Feng Lingbo capable of helping Tianyumen expand its sphere of influence? The prince has only been in Canglu County for a few months, and he offered a county. Such a talented person, if Tianyumen doesn't want it, there are sects in the world who want it!"

"In terms of family relationship, Feng Lingbo is the son-in-law of the head of Peng, and the prince is also the grandson-in-law of the head of Peng. They are also a family, so why should they be separated from each other? There is Feng Lingbo who can't compare. The prince is from the royal family of Dayan, and some things are justified! Taking a step back, the mage in Jinzhou also knows the conditions in Jinzhou. Without the prince, there is no one to live in Qingshan County! The prince is willing to serve Tianyumen.

Whether to give this opportunity, Bai Yao doesn't know, and he can't be the leader. The master hasn't spoken, and he doesn't dare to do anything to Shang Chaozong.

But he saw one thing, Shang Chaozong's side dared to show their cards blatantly today because they had nothing to fear!

Bai Yao turned around slowly, and left slowly with a sullen face.

The other Tianyumen disciples looked at each other in blank dismay, and also left with a look of surprise.

After a while, Shang Shuqing walked in, Feng Ruonan was taking a shower and washing the dust, and she came back.

"I just saw that the master's face is not good-looking. Could it be that we haven't settled with the court?" Shang Shuqing asked with concern, with a little anxiety in his eyes.

Shang Chaozong sighed, "It's settled... the matter of Crow General has already been shown to Tianyumen."

Shang Shuqing silently understood why Bai Yao's face was so ugly.

Lan Ruoting suddenly laughed and said: "Anyway, the general situation is settled, and there should be no more changes! After taking Qingshan County, Feng Lingbo will find it difficult to restrain the prince in the future. The prince finally has his own foothold. Congratulations on the new beginning!"

"I plan to marry my sister-in-law, borrow troops from Guangyi County, establish a foothold in Canglu County, and go to danger in Jinzhou to turn the tide and forge an alliance. Only then can the annexation of Qingshan County go smoothly today!" Shang Shuqing quietly reminded.

Both of them nodded in silence, and Shang Chaozong sighed: "Master Dao has made great contributions!"

Shang Shuqing walked gently to the tent door, looked at the vast sky, and murmured: "I haven't heard from him for a long time, and I don't know how he is..."
