Chapter 205 Blasphemy

In fact, at the beginning, Niu Youdao felt that such long hair was troublesome, so it was Shang Shuqing who made him feel that it was a kind of enjoyment to wear a ponytail casually, and gradually made him get into the habit of wearing it in a bun.

"It's still comfortable for the princess to comb her hair." Niu Youdao, who closed his eyes, praised.

Shang Shuqing pursed her lips, and said softly, "It's all the same."

Niu Youdao said "Yes" in a negative tone, "It's really different, it's just that your status as princess makes it a little inappropriate for you to do what this servant does."

Shang Shuqing whispered, "It's okay."

Niu Youdao smiled slightly, without bothering about this matter, and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Shang Shuqing, who combed carefully for him, didn't stop her hands: "It's still early, it's not too late to go back and use it."

Niu Youdao: "Do you smell the fragrance?"

Shang Shuqing sniffed and looked around. She smelled a strange fragrance when she walked to this yard before, and now she heard him ask, and asked curiously, "Is it related to breakfast?"

Niu Youdao laughed. When Yuan Gang inspected the yard yesterday, he found that the original owner of the garden had left a pile of so-called 'muzi' in a room that people here used as medicine. They were actually camellia seeds, which could be used to extract oil. With this camellia oil, many foods could be made. Yuan Gang naturally would not miss it. He had already taught the group of monks how to do it, and the fragrance should be extracting oil.

Niu Youdao said with a smile: "Yuan Gang said yesterday that he will teach the monks to make some deep-fried dough sticks for breakfast this morning, so let's try it together."

"Fried dough sticks?" Shang Shuqing was surprised, never heard of it.

Niu Youdao: "Now that we have at least a stable environment, Yuan Gang will start teaching those monks some cooking skills...Old Xiong listened to it, and immediately asked for the control over it. The old Xiong is a monster, you know. From now on, the meals here may not be available to everyone outside. The princess has been combing my hair, and I can't repay it. If you don't dislike it, you can come to eat with me in the future."

Shang Shuqing also laughed, and agreed immediately, "Okay!"

Hei Mudan brought the water for washing, and her hair was combed.

Hei Mudan looked at it seriously and couldn't help but admire Shang Shuqing's dexterity in helping Dao Lord comb her hair so that it was very neat and tidy.

After washing up, the two women left to watch 'You Tiao' together.

In the morning light, Niu Youdao was wandering in the courtyard thinking about something, and Yuan Gang came to the side.

Niu Youdao smelled the oily smell on his body, and instead of asking about the fried dough sticks, he asked instead, "Do you have a problem with Black Peony?"

Yuan Gang shook his head: "No!"

Some duplicity, in fact, he is not used to certain behaviors of Hei Mudan, and thinks it is a bit shameless. However, he also knew Daoist. Daoist would never deny a person because of his shortcomings. He looked at a person's shortcomings and also looked at a person's strengths. He would accept the person who was suitable even if he had shortcomings. He knew that Daoist didn't care about Hei Mudan's minor flaws.

Niu Youdao didn't mention it anymore, "Bring that Lu Shengzhong over to see me later."

Yuan Gang nodded, expressing that he knew.

"She is the princess!"

Hei Mudan, who was stopped at the door of the kitchen, was angry and funny. She and Shang Shuqing wanted to see what was going on with the fried dough sticks, but Yuan Fang blocked the door from entering, so Hei Mudan could only point to Shang Shuqing as a shield.

Yuan Fang cupped his hands at Shang Shuqing, "Princess, this is the privacy of a private family. The Daoist promised to give me the unique secret recipe of Nanshan Temple. It will be the source of income for Nanshan Temple to survive in the future. The Daoist also promised that Nanshan Temple has the final say on the kitchen. Please forgive me."

Shang Shuqing was not such a thick-skinned person, so she was embarrassed by what she said, so she had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​seeing and seeing.

Hei Mudan, who turned and left, scorned Yuan Fang, "Old Xiong, the kitchen doesn't belong to your house, you might as well hang your Nanshan Temple signboard on the kitchen door."

After watching the two leave, Yuan Fang went into the kitchen and brought out a golden fritter, biting it in his mouth, it was crispy and crispy, the more he chewed, the more fragrant he was, with a face of enjoying the deliciousness, he looked back at the lintel of the kitchen, chewing something in his mouth, muttering thoughtfully, "Nanshan Temple... makes sense..."

He stuffed the fritters into his mouth three times and chewed them, clapped his hands, and asked people to recruit Ru Ming, the chief seat of the West Court, and Ru Hui, the chief seat of the East Garden.

"Host!" The two first seats folded their palms together and saluted.

Yuan Fang pointed to the kitchen, "In the future, when operating here, remember to let people guard it, and don't let people steal the secret recipe."

"Yes!" The two agreed.

Yuan Fang pointed to the lintel of the kitchen again, "Get a plaque from Nanshan Temple immediately and hang it at the door."

"..." The two heads thought they had heard wrong.

Ruming asked suspiciously: "Master, is it appropriate to hang the signboard of our Nanshan Temple in the kitchen?"

Yuan Fang quickly looked around, "Do you know why I shamelessly begged the Taoist master for the right to control the kitchen? A way of making money, do you understand that this is a way of making money? If we can't get along here in the future, we have the secret recipe in hand, so we don't have to worry about getting out of it wherever we go, understand?"

The two nodded and understood, but Ruhui looked back at the kitchen, still a little incomprehensible, why not: "But hanging the signboard of our temple at the door of the kitchen, isn't it a little sorry for the Buddha?"

Yuan Fang glared and said: "The kitchen is not ours, so why not let others in? Put up our signboard, that is our territory. I am someone close to Daoist, and people see Daoist's face. I am here to stop outsiders. I can't stay here all the time. Why do you stop people? It will be different if you put up a signboard. Anyone who wants to take down our signboard in the future will have to weigh it. In this way, the kitchen will be controlled by us from now on. We don't have much use here, except for doing chores What else can you do, you have to hold on to the same thing? The poor monk has worked so hard, why can't you understand?"

"Amitabha!" The two chiefs stood in awe, joined hands together, and bowed to him.

Ruming then left quickly, and went to get the signboard.

Not long after, a wooden board with the words 'Nanshan Temple' was hung on the lintel of the kitchen...

The deep-fried dough sticks are delicious, and Shang Shuqing, who ate with them, also highly appreciated them.

Duan Hu, who also nodded repeatedly, took a deep-fried dough stick and bit it, then turned around and asked: "Old Xiong, there is a plaque of 'Nanshan Temple' hanging at the door of the kitchen. What does it mean that no one is allowed in?"

"Cough cough..." Yuan Gang covered his mouth and coughed for a while, the porridge in his mouth almost didn't come out.

Niu Youdao raised his head abruptly, looked at Yuanfang in astonishment, and said in astonishment, "You hung the signboard of Nanshan Temple on the door of the kitchen?" It's a little unbelievable, Nanshan Temple's status in the hearts of these monks is not ordinary, how can it be so blasphemous?

Yuan Fang rubbed his hands together, and said with a chuckle, "We can do some dirty work at Nanshan Temple. You can tell the Taoist priest what you want to eat in the future, and you don't need others to worry about it. You can eat the food made by yourself, right?"

Niu Youdao was speechless, he and Yuan Gang looked at him dumbfounded, others didn't know, how could the two of them not understand this little thought, in order to take advantage of it is really shameless, never seen such a strange thing, it can be regarded as convinced him.

Shang Shuqing and Hei Mudan looked at each other, what Hei Mudan said before was just a sarcastic joke, unexpectedly Yuan Fang would actually do this.

Niu Youdao glanced at the porridge in the bowl, and immediately embarrassed Yuan Fang, who was chanting crooked scriptures, "I want to eat meat, let me make some meat dishes tonight!"

"..." This time it was Yuanfang's turn to be dumbfounded.

In the end, Yuan Gang made a good move to appease Yuan Fang who was full of sadness, so there was another pair of couplets at the door of the kitchen: Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha will keep them in his heart!

After the meal, Shang Shuqing left, and Lu Shengzhong brought him to Niu Youdao.

In the pavilion hangs a golden wing that cuckoos from time to time.

Sitting in the pavilion, Niu Youdao looked at Lu Shengzhong, who had been washed and returned to normal, and sighed, "Brother Lu has been wronged during this time." He stretched out his hand and motioned for a seat.

Lu Shengzhong didn't sit down. Thinking of the detention situation that was not as good as pigs and dogs these days, his tone was a little bit sad and angry, "Niu Youdao, what do you want? If you really want to harm me, why don't you just give me a good time!"

"Sit down and talk if you have anything to say." Niu Youdao stretched out his hand again.

Lu Shengzhong smiled helplessly, and slowly sat opposite Niu Youdao, watching Niu Youdao pouring tea for him with his own hands, and asked, "If you keep me from killing, is it possible that I am still useful to you?"

"Sure enough, he is a smart man." Niu Youdao, who put down the teacup, said with a smile, "Actually, I admire Brother Lu very much! Speaking of which, Brother Lu is just unlucky, but he used the poem I gave to Song Yanqing, otherwise it is not sure what will happen in the end."

Lu Shengzhong laughed at himself and said, "Just say what you want."

Niu Youdao asked: "Does brother Lu know what's going on in Mount Wuliang?"

Lu Shengzhong: "Most of the time I was detained in a dark place, and those monks who did miscellaneous work didn't talk to me. How could I know the situation of the teacher? But if I offended Wang Heng and the others, I guess it won't be much better."

Niu Youdao raised his glass, motioned for tea, and asked, "Brother Lu, do you know what is going on with the Song family in Yanjing?"

Lu Shengzhong was also calm. He took a sip of the teacup and closed his eyes. He hadn't tasted the aroma of tea for a long time. He closed his eyes and said, "Where do I know? Why bother to ask!"

"Song Jiuming has stepped down. Someone sent me the heads of his whole family. The heads of Song Jiuming, Liu Lu, Song Quan and others are buried outside the city. If Brother Lu is interested, I can have someone dig them out for you to see." Niu Youdao raised his glass and pointed to the direction outside the city.

Lu Shengzhong was quite surprised, and asked, "Did you kill the Song family?"

Niu Youdao raised his glass to his lips, and answered the irrelevant question: "How are Liuxianzong, Fuyunzong, and Lingxiu Mountain compared to your Wuliang Mountain? Now all three factions have come to vote for me, and the heads of the three factions are in the courtyard outside. I come and go as soon as I call!"

Lu Shengzhong's eyes widened. Those three factions are naturally much stronger than their Wuliang Mountain.

Niu Youdao continued slowly: "Brother Lu may not know, but now the king of Yongping County has captured the entire Qingshan County, Nanzhou State Mu Zhou Shouxian has nothing to do, and the court of Yan Kingdom swallows his anger. Next, Guangyi County will also be in the pocket of Yongping County King, and soon, the whole Nanzhou will also be at his fingertips. I don't know how Brother Lu feels, and what is Wuliangshan's plan?"
