Yuanfang, who was listening in the audience, was amused and realized that it was Taoist Master who had some inexplicable confidence in his words, even those who wanted to marry had to meet him.
Fang Zhe sweated a little. Isn't this a lie? He reminded: "Master Dao, don't look at Hai Ruyue as just a woman. When her husband is dead and her son is weak, it is obvious that she, a widow, can stabilize the forces behind her and control Jinzhou.
It’s not easy. If we don’t see a good doctor then, if we dare to lie to her about such a thing, I’m afraid we won’t even be able to walk out of the Governor’s Mansion alive!”
Niu Youdao said calmly: "Just do as I say."
"This..." Fang Zhe said with a bitter smile: "Master Tao, it's not that I'm afraid of death. I'm willing to go through fire and water for the prince. But if Hai Ruyue angers Hai Ruyue, it might cause trouble for the prince!"
Yuan Fang glared, "Just do whatever I ask you to do, what nonsense!" Unconsciously, he imitated Yuan Gang's tone. Yuan Gang was not around, so he subconsciously thought that he should stand in Yuan Gang's position.
Niu Youdao raised his hand towards him to prevent him from scaring others. He also softened his tone and said, "The prince has a reason for sending me here. He didn't send me to do bad things. Otherwise, how would he let you cooperate?"
Me, Fang Zhe, do you think I would joke with my own life?"
Saying this made Fang Zhe relax his tense heartstrings and said, "Okay! I'll go and book the rooms for you two first."
Niu Youdao extended his hand to ask for help. After Fang Zhe went out, the two of them waited in the house for a while.
The room was quiet for a while, and Yuan Fang suddenly said a little shyly: "Master Dao, actually what Fang Zhe said makes some sense."
Niu Youdao turned his head and looked, "What? Are you scared? Didn't I just say that you are quite confident?"
"Master Tao, I misunderstood, remind me, remind me." Yuan Fang chuckled twice. It was fun to imitate Yuan Gang's tone just now, but he regretted it as soon as he said it. He still didn't have the confidence of Yuan Gang, mainly
If you go to the Governor's Mansion to lie to that woman, you might really lose your life.
Without waiting long, Fang Zhe arranged the room and specifically asked for the room next door.
The three of them went to the next door room and took a look, but there was nothing wrong.
It was settled for the time being. Niu Youdao asked Fang Zhe to go about his business while he took Yuanfang out of the inn.
They said they were going out for a walk, but in reality they were going to survey the topography of the city.
The size of the state city is second only to the capital city, and its prosperity is naturally not comparable to that of other places. There are various shops on both sides of the streets, and there is a constant flow of people coming and going. People dressed in noble clothes are not what a small place can
Amazingly, walking in this central place in the state can make people temporarily forget that this is a troubled time.
Yuanfang is just a countryman who comes to the city and looks around curiously, feeling novel about many things.
Niu Youdao glanced at him occasionally and secretly sighed, there is still a big difference between the goblin and the monkey. If it were a monkey who accompanied him on the work, knowing that there might be danger, the monkey would definitely be observing the terrain and memorizing the route wherever he went.
,in case for need.
But we can’t blame Yuanfang. To a certain extent, Yuanfang has no knowledge. He has been staying in a remote area. He said he is a monk, but in fact he has been doing banditry. He has basically never left that area and came to such a big place.
It’s understandable even if you’re dazzled by the city.
That's all, Niu Youdao let him know more by the way. Once he gets used to it, he won't be like this next time, so he will also go to busy places.
However, there is a saying that the road between enemies is narrow!
When passing by a shop with a very impressive facade, Niu Youdao couldn't help but glance at the signboard with the words "Linglong Pavilion" written on it. Looking at the door decorations and couplets, he roughly judged that it was a shop selling rare treasures and the like.
.
Since he passed by here, Niu Youdao also wanted to see what was sold inside, but before he could walk from across the street, he was stunned.
Two people were guarding the door of Linglong Pavilion, constantly looking around. One of them was stunned when he met Niu Youdao's eyes.
This person is none other than Yuan Fang, who he also knows. He is one of Niu Youdao’s former fellow disciples, Chen Guishuo, who was spared in Nanshan Temple!
As for why Chen Guishuo appeared here, it has something to do with the Song family. Song Jiuming had three sons. The eldest son Song Quan was an official in the Yan Kingdom, the third son Song Shu was at home, and the second son Song Long was now in the Zhao Kingdom.
An envoy sent to Zhao is a diplomat stationed in Zhao for Dayan.
The governor of Jinzhou also belongs to the category of those who support the army and respect themselves in the Zhao State. The Yan State likes to see such people from the enemy country, and wishes that all the feudal officials under the Zhao State were such talents. For such people, the Yan State is
Hai Ruyue, who is 40 years old and is eager to win over each other, as Yan's envoy to Zhao, how can he give up the opportunity to meet and communicate?
Regardless of the grievances between the Song family and Niu Youdao, the Song family, as an important member of the royalist party and with all their wealth and wealth entrusted to Emperor Yan, naturally hopes for the good of Dayan. So Song Long came here in person, not in name only.
The governor of Jinzhou was congratulating his mother on her birthday, but she was congratulating her on the birthday of the princess of Zhao State. Hai Ruyue was the younger sister of the current emperor of Zhao State. He said that he was congratulating her on the birthday of the princess. There was nothing wrong with diplomatic etiquette!
After Chen Guishuo was not tolerated by the Shangqing clan, he naturally defected to the Song family. In fact, he had been considered a member of the Song family for a long time. The Song family promised him a future and did not break their promise. A good future was not considered. At that time, the Song family had not
He completely broke up with the Shangqing Sect, so he sent Chen Guishuo to Zhao State to run errands for the second son of the Song family.
Chen Guishuo was guarding the door of Linglong Pavilion, while Song Long, the second son of the Song family, was inside Linglong Pavilion, looking to see if there was anything suitable to add to the birthday gift list.
Why is this guy here? Niu Youdao's heart skipped a beat. He never dreamed that he would meet Chen Guishuo here.
Just like what he said to Yuan Gang when he left the village, he was worried about being targeted by his enemies in Canglu County. The so-called enemies were mainly the Song family, who came from the village over the mountains and ridges, so there was no such worry. Zhao Guo's side
No one should know him, but who wants to run into Chen Guishuo, and he is also a member of the Song family. If Chen Guishuo leaks the news and lets the Song family know that he broke away from the protection of Tianyumen and appeared here, there is a high chance that he will appear here.
On August 9th, people will be sent to hunt him down. Not to mention that Shang Chaozong's affairs will not be handled well, even his own life will be in danger.
He has always claimed that he doesn't like fighting and killing, but a strong murderous intention suddenly rises in his heart, and he must not let the other party leak the information!
He slowly walked towards the opposite side.
Yuanfang was also surprised, and did not expect to meet Chen Guishuo here. He was not very clear about the grudge relationship between Niu Youdao and the Song family, so he did not know the dangers involved.
Chen Guishuo also never dreamed that he would meet Niu Youdao here. Although Niu Youdao's eyes were calm, he felt a sense of murderous intent. Thinking of the scene in Nanshan Temple, seeing Niu Youdao approaching again, he was frightened!
With a flash of his body, he immediately dodged into Linglong Pavilion to hide. However, when he saw Song Long looking at something with his hands behind his back, he was almost happy. Song Long was protected by experts, so why should he be afraid of cows?
Right?
He quickly rushed to Song Long's side and said, "Second Master, Niu Youdao is outside."
"Huh?" Song Long, who was quite majestic, turned his head and looked a little confused. He didn't react for a while.
Chen Guishuo hurriedly reminded, "Niu Youdao, the Niu Youdao who killed Master Yanqing is outside!"
Song Long suddenly narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, and two of the four attendants accompanying him in Linglong Pavilion immediately left with Chen Guishuo.
Niu Youdao, who had already reached the door of the store, stopped quickly. Chen Guishuo, who returned to the door with a smile on his face, made him aware of the danger. To be precise, he sensed that the danger came from the two people around Chen Guishuo.
One thing he can be sure of is that Chen Guishuo is not his opponent and should be self-aware. Then you can imagine where Chen Guishuo's confidence comes from.
Don't talk about him, even Yuanfang is aware of the danger.
"Brother Niu, it seems that you and I are really destined, right?" Chen Guishuo sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, a hand lightly tapped his arm. Chen Guishuo looked back, quickly stepped aside, and pointed at Niu Youdao to signal.
Song Long showed up, stood at the door and said condescendingly: "Are you Niu Youdao?"
Niu Youdao said calmly: "Who are you?"
Song Long also said calmly: "Second Uncle Song Yanqing!"
Niu Youdao's heart skipped a beat. There might be a guard in the Golden Core realm among the people around this guy.
He guessed right, Song Long had two golden elixirs, two foundation builders, and two qi refiners beside him.
But what he couldn't figure out even more was how he could meet the Song family here?
However, Niu Youdao was not confused at all and said calmly: "It turns out that he is Senior Brother Song's second uncle. Niu misses the Song family very much. Why don't you say hello in advance when you come to Jinzhou? I can also fulfill my friendship as a landlord!"
"
Song Long: "It's not too late now."
Niu Youdao: "I still have errands for the governor's office. You may as well wait a moment. I'll be back soon to entertain you!"
The word "hospitality" was particularly meaningful. After saying that, he turned around, waved, and left Yuanfang calmly.
This guy became a member of the Jinzhou Governor's Office? Chen Guishuo was stunned.
Song Long, who was standing at the door with an arrogant and solemn expression, was also stunned and did not dare to let his men take action.
If you can't figure out Niu Youdao's identity in the Governor's Mansion, you won't dare to act rashly.
But he quickly reacted. He knew whether what the other party said was true or false, so how could he be easily fooled? Song Long said in a deep voice: "Follow me. If you don't go to the Governor's Mansion, take it down for me immediately. Remember, if it's not necessary,
Don't cause riots in the city!" Hai Ruyue is celebrating his birthday. It's not appropriate for him to come here and make a fuss. It would mean that he doesn't take the master seriously. This is not the place for his Song family to run wild.
After hearing what he said, Chen Guishuo on the side interjected in a flattering manner, "Sir, the man next to Niu Youdao is a bear demon. It is the Golden King Bear in "The Record of Alien Beasts". Its hair can be used as a body protection treasure.
The clothes are invulnerable and can be used as birthday gifts!"
"Huh?" Song Long immediately waved to the guard.
Four people immediately left his side and followed him, including Chen Guishuo, one with golden elixir, two with foundation building, and one with qi refining.
Niu Youdao, who led Yuanfang away, did not dare to run away in a hurry, fearing that he would show signs of escape and arouse the other party's suspicion, so he mingled with the crowd and moved forward.
Yuan Fang knew his intention, but he was still frightened. He secretly broke into a cold sweat because of the scene just now. Fortunately, this man was able to react easily and quickly, otherwise he might not have been able to escape.
