A few days later, a group of people from Jinzhou, headed by Hai Ruyue, arrived and entered Qingshan County directly.
If you don't see the desired results, you will inevitably get angry at Shang Chaozong. If you ask Shang Chaozong to speed up, this can only be the result.
In fact, for Hai Ruyue personally, the importance of her son's recovery and the success of Yingyang Wulie's defense has been reduced. It's just that Wandong Tianfu is more looking forward to it. She found this reason, and Wandong Tianfu immediately agreed.
As Niu Youdao expected, he didn't see anything to see. Hai Ruyue's itinerary for the next day ended here outside the city.
Early the next morning, a freshly washed Niu Youdao personally greeted him at the entrance of the valley.
Hai Ruyue and his party dismounted. Only Hai Ruyue was allowed to bring a few followers in, and everyone else was blocked outside.
"What are the eldest princess looking at?"
When he accompanied them into the valley, Niu Youdao saw her looking at the people on his side and asked with a smile.
Hai Ruyue: "Is it possible that you don't want to see the mountain scenery here?"
She was looking at people to see if there was Mr. Ming here. If there was, all doubts would be solved.
She believed that if Niu Youdao really did it, he would never let anyone do it casually. It must be Niu Youdao's close confidant.
"How dare you! Princess, please excuse me." Niu Youdao laughed loudly. He was obviously looking at people, not at the mountain scenery.
When heading to Niu Youdao's residence, Hai Ruyue screened away the others and refused to let them follow.
Li Wuhua, who was accompanying the escort, had a slightly dissatisfied look on his face, and it was hard to say anything in front of so many people.
Climbing up the cliff halfway up the mountain, I saw a thatched cottage. Hai Ruyue was surprised, "You worked so hard for the Shang Dynasty, and you live in this poor place?"
The next sentence is about to say, do you want to consider coming to my place?
Niu Youdao pointed to the top of the mountain diagonally opposite, "There is a good place, but it is under construction. It won't be better for a while. I don't think I can move in this year."
Hai Ruyue looked along and saw the faint outlines of pavilions and pavilions, going up and down Craftsman Mountain. He nodded and said nothing.
Niu Youdao stretched out his hand to invite her to sit down at the stone table outside the thatched cottage, and Black Peony served her tea.
"Let's talk alone." Hai Ruyue glanced at Black Peony and said lightly.
Niu Youdao waved his hand to Black Mudan to retreat. He poured tea for her from the pot and asked casually, "Is your son feeling well?"
Hai Ruyue's eyelids twitched. She didn't know how to talk about that. If this guy hadn't done it, if he exposed it, he would be giving others clues.
She came here just to verify that matter. It was such a big deal that she felt like it was stuck in her throat, tossing and turning, restless day and night. If she was not sure, she would always be on tenterhooks, otherwise she would not have come in such a hurry.
For this reason, she tried her best to ask Wandong Tianfu to help keep the secret secret that her son's terminal illness had been cured.
It’s exactly what it says on that piece of paper: don’t make any noise, cover it up yourself!
This feeling of being led by someone's nose is very uncomfortable.
He slowly brought the tea, snorted coldly, and said, "Thanks to you, it's very good!" He meant it.
Niu Youdao smiled, and then sighed: "I'm sorry about Chiyang Zhuguo, but I really went to Ice and Snow Pavilion and tried my best. You must have heard about the situation. I almost had an accident and came back without success.
Go and see the eldest princess."
"Pfft...cough..." Hai Ruyue choked on her tea and coughed repeatedly. She wanted to ask about it, but before she even opened her mouth, this guy directly denied it.
Niu Youdao was surprised: "Eldest Princess, please be patient. If you think this tea tastes good, I still have some here. Just ask Eldest Princess to take it back later."
Putting down the tea cup, Hai Ruyue took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped her lips. After calming her breath, she stared at him for a long time.
The other party directly denied this matter, which made her even more suspicious. He asked her about her son's health at the beginning, and then denied the matter about Chiyang Zhuguo. It was difficult for her not to doubt this connection.
Niu Youdao touched his face, "Does it look good?"
Hai Ruyue nodded: "It's very beautiful. How about you come with me and be my face."
Niu Youdao looked at her with a smile, knowing that what the other person said seemed like a joke but was not a joke.
Later, when I got to know more about the affairs in the palace here, I realized that it is common for princesses from various countries to marry and have a pretty girl to have fun with. It is simply an open secret.
It is said that some princesses have more than one face.
Under normal circumstances, there are not many men who can match the family background and power of the princess. The husband has to look at his face, so how can he dare to care about it? In addition, if he has no worries about food and clothing, and has nothing to do, it is normal for him to be full and warm, and to think about sex.
There are many men who are willing to flatter and flatter you, and it is normal for them to get together once they are flirted with.
As long as you don't make too much noise, no one will yell and expose it.
Of course, being married to a powerful husband is a different situation, and you must be more restrained.
And now that the Xiao family is in charge, there are no restrictions, and besides being a widow, it is not surprising that he can say such a thing directly.
"I'm still young and not suitable." Niu Youdao joked.
Hai Ruyue was a little angry. She thought that she took good care of herself, but the other party made it clear that she was too old.
He looked aside and sneered, then returned to the topic: "Thank you for the people you sent to my place a few days ago."
Hai Ruyue bit her silver teeth secretly and sneered: "Stop pretending to be confused. Who else can I do besides you?"
Niu Youdao was surprised: "Princess, the more I listen, the more confused I become. What is going on?"
Hai Ruyue stared at him coldly. How did she speak? She still said the same thing. If it wasn't this guy who did it, she would cause trouble for herself by saying it.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Hai Ruyue said bitterly.
Niu Youdao was extremely surprised, "I didn't do anything, Princess, what on earth are you talking about?"
Hai Ruyue drank the tea slowly, her eyes flickering, and finally put down the tea cup and said: "Seriously, come to my side and help me. My power is not comparable to that of the Shang Chaozong. What I can give you, the Shang Chaozong
I can’t give it to you either. If you want money, things, or women, I can give it to you. You decide the conditions!”
Regardless of whether it was true or not, she was prepared to draw people to her side first to be sure.
Niu Youdao shook his head and refused directly, "That's not necessary. I appreciate the eldest princess's kindness."
Hai Ruyue: "What's so good about Shang Chaozong?"
Niu Youdao: "I don't like to pick up ready-made peaches. I still grow my own peaches and they taste sweet."
Hai Ruyue said in a deep voice: "Is there no need to discuss it?"
Niu Youdao shook his head: "It's fine now, no need to discuss."
"Okay!" Hai Ruyue nodded, "It's okay if you don't come, give it to someone else!"
This time Niu Youdao was really surprised and asked: "Who do you want?"
Hai Ruyue: "Yuan Gang!"
"..." Niu Youdao was stunned and realized that this woman was really discerning. She actually saw that Yuan Gang could help her. He shook his head and said, "I can't decide his affairs."
Hai Ruyue: "Isn't he your subordinate?"
Niu Youdao smiled bitterly: "I really can't make the decision. Let's put it this way. If he wants to go, I won't stop him. If he doesn't want to go, I won't force him."
Hai Ruyue looked around and asked, "Where's the man? Why haven't you seen him? Call him and I'll talk to him."
Niu Youdao stood up, walked to the edge of the cliff and waved his hand, and the black peony flew over quickly.
"Let Yuan Gang do it." Niu Youdao explained.
"No, just take me to him. I'm just looking for someone familiar with the place to see the scenery." Hai Ruyue also stood up.
Niu Youdao extended his hand and asked Black Mudan to take her away. He didn't think Yuan Gang could go with her.
Standing on the edge of the cliff, watching the woman go down the mountain, Niu Youdao smiled.
It was impossible for him to admit that. It was enough to let the other party know that Xiao Tianzhen used the red sun fruit stolen from the Ice and Snow Pavilion, otherwise there would be no need to beat around the bush to treat Xiao Tianzhen...
Looking at the beautiful woman next to him, Yuan Gang was a little puzzled that Master Dao actually asked him to accompany her for a walk? It was probably impossible for Black Peony to lie.
He doesn't have any dislike for Hai Ruyue, nor does he have a good impression of her.
The reason why you don’t feel disgusted is because you know that this woman is not easy. The reason why you don’t like her is because you don’t like how this woman always leans on you.
"You really don't want to think about it? You don't have to worry about Niu Youdao. He has already agreed. All he needs is your nod."
While walking on the mountain path, Hai Ruyue stared at Yuan Gang with her beautiful eyes and said.
"He only agrees if he is mentally ill." Yuan Gang said coldly.
Hai Ruyue was stunned for a moment. To be able to say Niu Youdao like this didn't seem like Niu Youdao's subordinate. Then she persuaded him again: "What I can give you, I can't give it to you here."
Yuan Gang: "You can't give me what I want!"
Hai Ruyue's bright eyes twinkled, "Why don't you tell me and listen."
Yuan Gang shook his head: "I said you can't give it, and there's no point in saying it." He lowered his head and glanced at her skirt, "Eldest Princess, you'd better go back. What you're wearing is not suitable for walking on mountain roads."
"Okay!" Hai Ruyue nodded with a smile. Just as she turned around, she suddenly swayed and said "ouch", looking like she was unsteady on her feet.
Yuan Gang subconsciously helped her and asked: "What's wrong?"
"My foot sprained." Hai Ruyue looked in pain.
Yuan Gang helped her sit down on a stone, squatted down and held her crippled foot, squeezing it and checking it.
"It hurts... it hurts..." Hai Ruyue cried out in pain repeatedly.
Nothing was found during the examination. He was not able to cast spells to check the situation despite his skin. Yuan Gang frowned and said, "Wait a moment. I'll ask someone to come and take a look at it for you."
Hai Ruyue looked around, "You just left me here? What if a bad guy comes?"
Yuan Gang: "Don't worry, there are monks from several sects guarding here, so it's not easy for outsiders to sneak in."
"What if a wild beast or snake comes? I'm scared to be alone, so you'd better carry me down the mountain!"
"Shh..." Yuan Gang put a finger into his mouth and blew a loud whistle.
There was a "swish" sound from behind, which almost startled Hai Ruyue. When she looked back, she saw a young man with grass hanging all over his body suddenly appeared. I was surprised that there was always someone hiding here, and I didn't even see it when I walked past.
Not only this one, there were three or four such teenagers appearing in the surrounding area, and they all ran over. Hai Ruyue was speechless.
She couldn't help but feel happy. Fortunately, she had held her down just now and was about to move, so she didn't lean on Yuan Gang. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing if so many people saw her!
A mess of four teenagers stood in a row in front of Yuan Gang.
Yuan Gang pointed at Hai Ruyue, "You guys watch her, I'll go and come back."
"Yes!" the four teenagers responded.
Hai Ruyue felt guilty. It would be embarrassing if someone came to check that she didn't have a sprained foot. She hurriedly said: "Forget it, I'll walk slowly. I should be able to walk." After saying that, he got up and tried to walk a few times, laughing.
