Chapter 443 Don't Go!
For a while, many forces sent people to Nanzhou to congratulate them with gifts, including envoys from various countries. The Shang dynasty was publicly conferred by the court of Yan State, not a traitor, no one can say anything, this is the benefit of fame.
All the forces went to congratulate the promotion of Nanzhou Governor, and the second thing was to contact Shang Chaozong to establish contact.
As for Feng Lingbo, who was favored by various forces before, he has already been forgotten...
In Beizhou Governor's Mansion, Shao Sansheng walked into the study room, walked to Shao Pingbo who was writing at his desk, and remained silent.
Shao Pingbo didn't raise his head, "Speak up if you have something to say."
Shao Sansheng: "Master locked himself in the study for a whole day and didn't come out."
Shao Pingbo stopped writing in his hand, and continued to write a word. Fang put the pen aside, and slowly put his hands on the table, silent for a long time.
He knew why his father was boring himself in the room. When the news came from Nanzhou of Yan State, after learning that the Shang Dynasty Zong had risen strongly to occupy Nanzhou, his father's mood was a little wrong.
He knew that his father had always been brooding over the events of the past, and had always thought that he had betrayed King Ning. Now that King Ning's son had once again risen on behalf of King Ning's family, his father might have been stimulated and felt guilty again.
Shao Sanxing also understood this, and asked, "Do you want to go and persuade the master?"
Shao Pingbo shook his head.
Shao Sansheng wondered: "It's really strange, Jinzhou actually supported Shang Dynasty Zong at the critical moment, and I don't know what Wandong Tianfu thinks, otherwise there would be something about Shang Dynasty Zong."
Shao Pingbo sneered, "Haven't you understood yet? Wandong Tianfu sent troops only after being threatened by Niu Youdao. Otherwise, whoever owns Nanzhou will not lose anything, and there is no need to take such a big risk. This also proves that This thing...it’s all nonsense that the ghost doctor’s disciple cured Xiao Tianzhen, it’s clear that the Chiyang Zhuguo stolen by Niu Youdao played a role.”
Shao Sansheng's eyebrows twitched violently, showing a look of sudden realization, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Why don't you leak this matter secretly?"
"Secretly?" Shao Pingbo squinted and said, "Do you think Niu Youdao didn't know that I did it if it was leaked secretly? No matter what happens to me, the first thing I suspect is Niu Youdao. Niu Youdao also The same is true, no matter what happens to him, I will immediately become his first suspect. Do you still expect Niu Youdao to hide it for me after he falls into the hands of Bingxue Pavilion? He will definitely use me back then The matter of the Ice and Snow Pavilion was dragged out. If I hadn’t been sure that I would not dare to leak the secret, do you think he would dare to do so?”
"..." Shao Sansheng was speechless, and then he was a little puzzled, "So, don't we want to help him keep the secret forever?"
Shao Pingbo's eyes fell on the tip of the writing brush that was left aside, and he let out a sigh of relief, "This man has far-sightedness and foresight, and has the ability to turn clouds and rain, and it will definitely become a big problem for me in the future! The Shang Dynasty has Lan Ruoting in its literature, and Meng Shanming in Wu. This bird is a counselor who settles the troubles in the practice world, it is really like a tiger with wings, and it is enviable! Shao is eager to seek talents, and the situation in Beizhou has been settled, but there are still no sages to vote for..."
Shao Sansheng felt sad, the reason for this was probably related to the fact that Niu Youdao had ruined the eldest son's reputation.
...
Outside the cabin in the mountains, Niu Youdao was lying on a deck chair basking in the sun and taking a nap, while Yuan Gang carefully watered a pot of black peonies with a shower in his hand.
When I left the thatched cottage, I didn't take anything with me, but I brought this pot of black peonies with me. Year after year, the flowers withered and bloomed again.
Guan Fangyi arrived calmly, shaking her round fan, walked behind the rocking chair and pushed it hard, snickering.
Niu Youdao, who was shaking violently, opened his eyes and woke up, and said slowly, "Naughty!"
How do you feel like you're talking about a child? Guan Fangyi rolled her eyes, stretched out her hand to support the rocking chair, and said in a loud voice, "Jinzhou Laoba has a letter."
Niu Youdao: "The Jinzhou people have withdrawn?"
Guan Fangyi said "Yes", "Wandong Tianfu sent Lao Ba to ask for Xiao Tianzhen, but Hai Ruyue hinted that Lao Ba asked this side not to send Xiao Tianzhen back."
Niu Youdao: "How do you say it?"
Guan Fangyi: "Wandong Tianfu has already put Hai Ruyue under house arrest. Hai Ruyue finally met with Lao Ba and gave a hint. Wandong Tianfu controlled Hai Ruyue and forced Hai Ruyue to order the adjustment of military and political personnel. The meaning of Wandong Tianfu seems to be to abandon the Xiao family, to cleanse the secular power of Jinzhou, and to replace it with a new group of people, and I don’t know what Wandong Tianfu means by such a big fight.”
She didn't know what it meant, but Niu Youdao knew that Wandong Tianfu couldn't be controlled by others forever, and the evidence must be destroyed. Hai Ruyue definitely didn't want Xiao Tianzhen to be sent back here. If Xiao Tianzhen didn't go back, Hai Ruyue might still have a way out. Once Xiao Tianzhen goes back, both mother and son will die.
Niu Youdao said casually: "Tell me back to Wandong Tianfu, as agreed, Xiao Tianzhen can only be sent back when the prince has completely controlled Nanzhou."
Guan Fangyi hummed, and said strangely: "Since Wandong Tianfu wants to eliminate the influence of the Xiao family, why is it so eager to ask for Xiao Tianzhen? The Xiao family is no longer needed. Does it matter whether Xiao Tianzhen returns?"
Niu Youdao said in a wrong way: "Ghost knows what they are planning."
Guan Fangyi looked suspicious, a little suspicious that Niu Youdao was not telling the truth.
She felt that there must be something wrong with Xiao Tianzhen, otherwise, how could Xiao Tianzhen coerce Wandong Tianfu to take such a big risk, plus Wandong Tianfu's abnormal behavior this time.
Doubts are doubts, and I have known Niu Youdao for so long. If Niu Youdao doesn't want to say, it's useless to ask, and it's useless to ask. Changing the subject, he asked happily: "I heard that the capital city of Nanzhou is very lively. Envoys and forces from all over the world have sent people to congratulate the prince on his promotion. It must be soon that the prince will take control of Nanzhou. Are we here?" Isn't it time to prepare to enter Nanzhou?"
Although the time in the mountains is peaceful and leisurely, she is a person who can't stand the life in the mountains and forests, and prefers the prosperity of the world of flowers and flowers. After thinking about it, she can know that the prosperity of Nanzhou Prefecture City is definitely not comparable to that of the countryside in Qingshan County. She has long been itching up.
Niu Youdao lay with his head tilted and looked at her with a faint smile.
Guan Fangyi immediately covered her face with a fan, and said coquettishly, "Have you ever seen a beautiful woman?"
Niu Youdao said cheerfully: "I've seen beautiful women before, but I've never seen such a beautiful one."
"Hehe..." Guan Fangyi immediately laughed and trembled, but after seeing Yuan Gang's disgusted gaze, she couldn't laugh immediately, coughed dryly, and muttered something to herself, probably didn't say anything about Yuan Gang. what a nice word.
After getting in touch for a while, she had to admit that Yuan Gang was attractive to her. She had intentionally given Yuan Gang a chance, but Yuan Gang didn't understand the style, and even sent her a strong word, old woman!
As soon as these words came out, Guan Fangyi was really hurt, and Yuan Gang was not pleasing to the eyes from then on.
It's not just that she doesn't like Yuan Gang, Yuan Gang also doesn't like her.
Supporting the armrests with both hands, Niu Youdao left the reclining chair and stood up. He walked to the edge of the mountain with his hands behind his back, looked at the distant mountains, and said leisurely: "The incident in Changping City revealed a problem. Our emergency response capability is too poor."
"So?" Guan Fangyi followed and asked.
Niu Youdao: "Naturally we want to learn from each other's strengths."
Guan Fangyi: "What kind of remedy?"
Niu Youdao looked back at her, and smiled brightly, "It's really troublesome to travel long distances, should we also get a few bird mounts for backup?"
"Flying mounts? How many more?" Guan Fangyi was stunned, subconsciously took a step back, away from him, and said vigilantly: "I can tell you, I don't have any money, so don't think about me."
"You and Lao Xiong really are a perfect match." Niu Youdao raised his chin towards Yuanfang who was walking by with his sleeves dangling at the foot of the mountain, "Don't worry, I won't let you pay. Are you interested in taking a trip to Song Kingdom with me? The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect should not be short of these things, if you get to know one or two, maybe they can give us a few of them."
"How many will I give you? You think it's beautiful, it won't work if it's cabbage..." Guan Fangyi was stunned halfway, as if thinking of something, she suddenly turned her head and looked at the pot of black peonies next to the wooden house, with an expression on her face. Su turned back again, and said in a deep voice: "I said, Lord, you don't mean to look for that Chao man, do you? Let me tell you, Chao's man is more dangerous than Tian Yumen, and we can't afford to mess with him."
When Hei Mudan was seriously injured and died on the boat when she escaped from Qi State, she heard the conversation between Niu Youdao and Duan Hu with her own ears. Niu Youdao asked who was the person who abused Hei Mudan in the early years, and the person Duan Hu answered was the big man surnamed Chao from Wanshoumen.
Now that Niu Youdao suddenly mentioned that he was going to the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate in Song State, she immediately thought of it and had to be vigilant.
Niu Youdao: "You're thinking too much. It's not the time to find something. I can still bump into it to find death. The purpose is to mount a bird and have no other intentions."
Guan Fangyi asked suspiciously, "Really?"
Niu Youdao: "Really, are you going?"
"No!" Guan Fangyi refused with a firm attitude.
...
In the blink of an eye, half a year later.
In the thatched villa, Shang Shuqing, who was wearing a purple cloak, stood on the attic of the villa and looked into the distance.
After more than half a year of cleaning and rectification, the secular power in Nanzhou has been completely in the hands of Shang Chaozong, but Niu Youdao is still nowhere to be seen, only occasionally contacted by letters, and has no intention of returning to Shang Chaozong to show his face, so Shang Shuqing went back here to check.
According to the three factions guarding here, Niu Youdao never came back.
The three sects have been waiting here for Niu Youdao, and the wait is so bitter...
In the wooden house, Niu Youdao soaked in the steaming tub.
Someone knocked on the door, then pushed the door open and walked in. It was Yuan Gang.
Niu Youdao, who squinted his eyes, asked lightly, "Did Wandong Tianfu receive someone?"
As promised, Xiao Tianzhen was sent back here.
Yuan Gang hummed, and said in a solemn tone: "You should know that once he goes back, both mother and child may have no way to survive."
Niu Youdao: "You should also know that I have no choice but to take care of some things. Some people must disappear. If Wandong Tianfu doesn't kill them, I will get rid of them too. I am not a gentleman, you and I It’s meaningless to say these things. Well, let’s pack up and get ready, and when Lao Ba comes back from Jinzhou, let’s leave.”
