Chapter 598 Do You Really Think of Me as Your Thug?

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Why are you in a hurry to let the imperial court attack you at this time?"

Niu Youdao had already walked to the book case and sat down, preparing to draft a letter to Shang Chaozong. This time it was not just as simple as attacking Dingzhou, but also had to be able to keep it. Chaozong made it clear, and couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "You seem to be interested in what's going on here."

Guan Fangyi, who followed behind, was very conscious, and took the initiative to drip water and ink, seemingly calmly, but actually listened to the conversation between the two with his ears up.

The man in the floral dress: "I'm not interested either. Why, can't you tell me?"

Niu Youdao said with a smile: "It's a bit strange, you don't seem like someone who likes to ask these questions."

"You and I have only met for the second time, how much do you know about me?"

"That's true. I thought you were not a talkative person."

"Can you tell me?"

Niu Youdao took the paper and spread it out in front of him, and said: "The matter is over, and there is nothing we can't say. There are many reasons. First, I know very well that Shang Jianxiong will do something to me sooner or later. I hide For a while, I can't hide for a long time, I will run into him sooner or later, and I am also waiting for the opportunity to face this problem."

"Secondly, in order to deal with the threat of Zhao Guo and Yan Guo to Jinzhou and Nanzhou, Nanzhou's troops and supplies have been assembled. If they are disbanded and pulled together again, it will be too laborious and costly. You can take advantage of it .”

"Thirdly, the situation has changed. The Han and Song armies are pressing down on the border, and the court has been tied up. It is also a great opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Fourth, you have seen those masked men. I borrowed them from someone. It is impossible for them to keep these hands by my side all the time. They are lent to me for emergencies. They cannot stay by my side for a long time. , I have to hurry up and come in handy."

"Fifth, to sum up, after the imperial court failed to assassinate me in Jinzhou, since they will not let it go, I must take advantage of the time when I can gather a strong force in my hands, when the situation is most beneficial to me, at the time of my death. When the situation is not conducive to the court, do it!"

"For these reasons, am I honest enough to you?" Niu Youdao spread his hands.

Guan Fangyi rolled her eyes when she heard this, she was honest enough, she had never been so honest with her old lady.

Although she went through the incident, most of the time it was in the fog, and it was the first time that she clearly knew Niu Youdao's intentions, and all the unknowns suddenly became clear at this moment.

The man in the floral dress thought slowly and said: "It not only gave the court time to prepare, but also prevented the court from being able to fully prepare. This not only prevents you from being overwhelmed, but also demonstrates your strength to deter the court, so that the court will not dare to act rashly against you in the future. !"

Suddenly he raised his eyes and stared at him and asked, "Did you kill Song Envoy?"

Niu Youdao smiled and didn't answer. He took a pen and took out the miscellaneous hairs on the pen tip, which was tantamount to acquiescing. He would never admit this kind of thing to anyone, and he didn't want to lie to the other party, so let the other party understand it by himself.

The man in the floral dress looked at him with complicated eyes.

Everything is clear, the situation where Han and Song are suppressing the army of the Yan State is the situation that this guy took the opportunity to provoke.

After contacting him in advance to protect him, it means that this guy knew in advance that the court was going to move him, and had already tied the court's hands and feet and waited for the court to move him.

This guy's so-called second point, the so-called Nanzhou troops and materials have been assembled for easy use of off-the-shelf, which means that this guy has long been prepared to fight back.

He really didn't know how to describe this junior, and said slowly: "It seems that you won't give up until you take two bites from the imperial court this time."

Niu Youdao dipped his pen and shook his head, "I have no other choice. At this point, I can't avoid it. Unless I give up Nanzhou, there are still a group of brothers who trust me to follow me. I If you give up easily, there is no way to explain to them, and the Nanzhou merchants will also face a bloodbath."

"And the hand of the imperial court was restless, and always wanted to stir here twice. If you don't beat him up and let him teach him a long lesson, his hand is unwilling to take it back. If you punch him, you won't get a hundred punches." Come on, after this experience, as long as there are no major changes, no one should dare to touch my thatched cottage again for a long period of time!"

The man in the flowered dress was silent, and suddenly said, "Why did Dong Guo Haoran accept such a sinister and cunning closed disciple like you?"

Niu Youdao spread out the paper, dipped a pen in the ink and wrote, "For the sake of you being a master, I don't think I heard."

The man in the floral dress suddenly sighed again, "To them, you are more useful than me! I deserved my punishment for being kicked out of the school, but they shouldn't kick you out, you are so stupid!"

What about you, me and them? Niu Youdao didn't know if he understood the meaning of what he said, as he said just now, he pretended he didn't hear it, kept silent, and wrote his own stuff.

The man in the floral dress lingered in the room with a deep, inexplicable, and inexplicable emotion, sighing twice from time to time.

...

In Nanzhou Governor's Mansion, two personal guards lit the lights in the Yingwu Hall and retreated.

After a while, Shang Chaozong and others who received the summons from the thatched cottage rushed in, and Lan Ruoting pushed Meng Shanming, who was in a wheelchair, to the front of the map.

Shang Chaozong pointed to the map, told the current location of the troops, and then said: "Now the imperial court is heavily guarding South Korea and the Song Dynasty, and the internal forces are empty. My food, grass, supplies and troops have been assembled. It can be said that it is a matter of course. I am a little worried that if Dachan Mountain does not cooperate, we will not be able to fight this battle. There are also three major factions, once they intervene, our efforts will be in vain."

Meng Shanming twitched his beard and said: "Master Dao will not ignore this. Since Master Dao said so, he must have already planned it. The prince can rest assured to send troops."

"Okay!" Shang Chaozong clapped his fists and was very excited. He was very interested in expanding the territory. After being excited, he asked Ce again, "The meaning in Daoye's letter is obvious. The court is the court after all. It is justifiable for me to send troops in Nanzhou. What excuse should I use to provoke?"

Lan Ruoting had a countermeasure long ago, "You can order a caravan to show off its wealth in the border area, and hire a few beauties in the caravan to lure the Dingzhou defenders to rob the money when they pass by. The other party fell into the trick, and the prince immediately sent troops to attack, but the beauty was the concubine that the prince was planning to marry. Robbing the prince's woman is not a trivial matter, it is tolerable or unbearable, if the court orders the prince to stop the attack, the prince will implicate Xue Xiao and insist If there is no envoy Xue Xiao, no one would dare to do this, and the court should demote Xue Xiao to the prince to explain. Xue Xiao is one of the princes, and there are forces in the court to protect him, and we know that it is our plan. The court will not give in easily. The prince can take advantage of this gap Siege the city and loot the land wantonly!"

Shang Chaozong nodded again and again, then asked Meng Shanming, "How does Uncle Meng feel?"

Meng Shanming nodded: "It is possible!"

Shang Chaozong looked happy, and immediately handed over the provocation and temptation to Lan Ruoting to arrange, and he himself discussed with Meng Shanming about the use of troops.

About half an hour later, Lan Ruoting came back and brought another letter, "My lord, the princess has received news, saying that my lord has canceled the move to Fucheng."

cancelled? The two people in front of the map turned their heads in unison, stunned, they are all ready to welcome here, won't you come?

Shang Chaozong frowned and said: "But we didn't do well here, so that the Taoist is not satisfied?"

Lan Ruoting shook his head and handed the letter to him.

"Disguise the real with the fake?" Shang Chaozong looked suspicious after reading the letter, "What do you mean?"

The letter did not explain, and Lan Ruoting was also muttering, "The blindfold has been discarded, which means it has nothing to do with the next thing. If something happened in front of me, it means that the Maolu Mountain Villa was attacked... It should be the encounter with the Maolu Mountain Villa." Raid related."

It is really that the knowledge here is limited, even Niu Youdao is not unaware of the attack in Jinzhou, so there is no basis for judgment.

Meng Shanming took the letter and stared at the content, but couldn't figure out what the intention was, so he raised his hand and said: "The princess's letter has already stated very clearly, the Daoist has forced Dachan Mountain to agree to assist in the attack on Dingzhou, The prince can rest assured to dispatch troops, as for any tricks and the like, it is not important to us, we can just do our own thing, and other Taoists have their own discretion."

Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting looked at each other in blank dismay, and it was also their surprise that Dachan Mountain was agreed by the Daoist in a forced way.

Lan Ruoting finally smiled wryly and shook his head, "Master Dao's methods are treacherous and changeable, and they are becoming more and more unfathomable. The court angered Master Dao, and Master Dao made it clear this time that he wanted to fight back, and he made it clear that he wanted to give the court some color." Look, Master Dao has already cleared up the troubles ahead for us, and it is up to us how to deal with it according to what Master Dao said."

Meng Shanming nodded, and cast his eyes on the map, "My lord, this is a good thing for us, since the Taoist master wants to see our appetite, then let's fight with all our might!"

...

In the darkness before dawn, the surrounding mountains and forests are silent.

There were no moon butterflies in the courtyard. Niu Youdao looked up at the stars in the sky with his sword in his hand. Yuan Gang came from the darkness and whispered: "It has been arranged for them to leave secretly. Everything is going well."

They are referring to the group of Xiaoyue Pavilion's staff. After being exposed, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. If you stay for a long time, you will be targeted by others. This is not what Xiaoyue Pavilion wants to see.

It is not suitable for so many people to go during the day, so they can only leave while it is dark.

Niu Youdao nodded, turned around and went into the house, found the man in flowered clothes sitting in the house drinking, and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to leave. I have good wine and good food here, not worse than you in Yaomoling, right?"

The man in the floral dress looked up, "Do you really think of me as your thug?"

Niu Youdao laughed, waved his hands and said, "How dare, how dare, I think your identity may have been exposed."

The man in the floral dress was silent, "Did I cause you trouble?"

Niu Youdao shook his head: "In the past, I didn't have that capacity, and it was easy to be exhausted looking for you. Now it's different. On the ground in Nanzhou, I can't move anyone who wants to. Don't worry, I can handle it. Otherwise, I won't ask you to come out."

The man in the floral dress tore off the camouflage on his face, revealing his true face, rubbed his face with his hands, took off his floral coat, threw it aside with disgust, and hugged a large wine jar given to him here.

"Let's go." Leaving aside the words, he walked away.

"No hurry." Niu Youdao stretched out his hand to stop him, and then cupped his hands to ask for advice: "Princess Shang Shuqing, you have seen it too, what do you think?"
