The repentant Shang Jianxiong's eyebrows jumped, and his face instantly glowed with strange expectation. He quickly bowed his head in front of the memorial tablets of his ancestors, kowtowed three times in a row, stretched out his sleeves with both hands, stood up directly, turned around and strode forward,
Out of the ancestral temple.
"Your Majesty!" Tian Yu and Ga Miaoshui, who were waiting at the door, both saluted.
Shang Jianxiong waved his hand a little impatiently, indicating that there was no need to be polite, stared at Tian Yu and asked: "Are you sure there are changes in Nanzhou?"
Tian Yu said respectfully: "I received the news a few days ago, and people have repeatedly confirmed that the Shang Chaozong has indeed been controlled, and his men and horses have also been divided and controlled. As Niu Youdao said, Tianyumen's intention has been clear, to suppress
Shang Chaozong, support Feng Lingbo! You can be sure of this and there will be nothing wrong with it."
After Ga Miaoshui and Zhou Guifei brought news from Niu Youdao before, they had been worried about fraud. This time they couldn't believe the changes they received from Nanzhou. They had to confirm it over and over again.
Dare to report it.
"Haha!" Shang Jianxiong suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, laughing very hard. Then he pointed to the outside world, pointed at the void, raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes and shouted angrily: "Shang Chaozong! As a descendant of the Shang family, he actually destroyed his ancestor's foundation. He spent all his efforts, but in the end he failed.
Making wedding clothes for others is pitiful and hateful. Even God will not tolerate you. This is your fate..."
After venting his anger in the air, he wandered back and forth at the entrance of the ancestral temple.
After a while, he stopped in front of the two of them. Shang Jianxiong hesitated and said: "Niu Youdao is the rebellious person. How could he help me with my ideas? Why do you feel so ridiculous?"
Tian Yu said: "It is not difficult to understand that when things have reached this point, he has no way to restore it. Tianyu Sect has ruined his good deeds, and they may not let him go if he has the chance in the future. If he has the chance to retaliate, how can he let Tianyu
Is the door better?"
Ga Miaoshui also held up his hands and said: "Your Majesty, just imagine that Tianyumen supports Feng Lingbo, but the imperial court appoints Shang Chaozong as the governor of Nanzhou. Feng Lingbo's rise to power is unjust and unjust. The point is that there is still a Shang Chaozong in Nanzhou."
With 200,000 direct descendants, this decree can provoke conflicts at once. Once there is a conflict between the two sides, the imperial court can take the opportunity to secretly intervene and instigate conflicts between the two parties. When civil strife breaks out, it will be a great opportunity for the imperial court to easily regain Nanzhou in one fell swoop.
Although the plan came from Niu Youdao, I have to admit that it is indeed a good idea. No matter how bad it is, it will disturb Nanzhou and make Tianyumen feel uncomfortable!"
…
The breeze is bright and the moon shines brightly on the mountain cliffs, with moon butterflies perched on the treetops.
Under the treetops, two people sat opposite each other on a stone table, Niu Youdao and Xiao Tianzhen playing chess under the moonlight, with the stars shining brightly in the distance.
After a chess piece fell, Xiao Tianzhen finally broke through the sinking, "What exactly do you want to do with me?"
Niu Youdao smiled, "I told you, I won't do anything to the young master. Don't you think it is an elegant thing for the young master to live in the prosperous state capital for a long time, and occasionally come to live in the mountains to relax, with mountains and flowing water, the breeze and the bright moon accompanying him?"
Xiao Tianzhen: "Master Tao is elegant, but a kidnapped person may not be so elegant. I once expressed my feelings to Yuan Gang, and Yuan Gang must have relayed it to Master Dao, right?" I heard that people here call Niu Youdao "
Master Dao, he also became polite.
After adding a piece to the chessboard, Niu Youdao stopped and said, "I said it."
Xiao Tianzhen immediately watched his reaction closely, "I wonder what your intention is?"
Niu Youdao smiled and said, "I can't make the decision in this matter."
Xiao Tianzhen shook his head, "Do I need to say more about Taoist Master's influence on Shang Chaozong?"
Niu Youdao: "You're young, don't do stupid things. Wouldn't it be better for mother and son to help each other in the same boat?"
Xiao Tianzhen: "Is youth a problem? Mr. Dao, you were put under house arrest by the Shangqing Sect for five years when you were a teenager. When you were about 20 years old, you persuaded my mother to help the Shang Chaozong seize Qingshan County and take the risk of killing Yan Envoy.
He also performed various feats in the Qi State and obtained 30,000 war horses for the Shang Dynasty Sect. With all the things that Master Dao has done, can he be judged by his age? Master Dao was put under house arrest by the Shangqing Sect for five years, but I was manipulated by others.
After more than ten years, you and I have something in common!"
Although he has been under control in Jinzhou, butler Zhu Shun will still secretly provide him with some information and situations.
Niu Youdao smiled and asked, "Do you want to discuss cooperation with me?"
Xiao Tian cheered up and said: "It's a mutually beneficial good thing, so what's the harm in talking about it?"
Niu Youdao said lightly: "What are you talking about with me? What can you do in Jinzhou? Let's wait until you are qualified to talk to me!" His tone was full of disdain, and his slightly raised eyebrows showed deliberateness in his eyes.
Exciting meaning.
Xiao Tianzhen clenched his hands slightly into fists, his face turned slightly red, and he felt a little embarrassed and angry.
He obviously had no mood to continue playing chess.
After Xiao Tianzhen left, Niu Youdao walked to the edge of the cliff, fluttering his big sleeves in the wind, holding his hands behind his back, looking at the stars and the moon with deep eyes.
In the night wind, Guan Fangyi's graceful figure came to the side, folded her arms on her chest, and said casually: "The situation in Nanzhou has been determined, and lives may be in danger over there at any time. If we wait like this, we may kill Shang Chaozong and others."
With his clothes flying, Niu Youdao closed his eyes and listened to the wind under the moonlight, and said slowly: "Don't worry, wait a little longer, the peaches will be delicious when they are ripe! We have left them with a way to resolve the danger of their lives, so that they will not even endanger themselves.
You can't even notice the danger to your life approaching."
Guan Fangyi: "You always do things in a foggy manner. What if something unexpected happens?"
Niu Youdao: "If the bottom is exposed, they won't be able to wait until the end. They may open the bag early to avoid risks. Once Tianyumen contacts Wandong Tianfu in advance...it must be reserved for Yuan Gang in Jinzhou.
Plenty of time, right? If an accident happens, it can only mean that their fate is bad."
Guan Fangyi: "They are now tightly controlled by Tianyumen, and it is difficult to contact them. What exactly did you keep in your bag?"
Niu Youdao chuckled...
Early in the morning, Luo An pushed Meng Shanming, who was sitting in a wheelchair, out of the house and went to the government office where Feng Lingbo stayed.
The wheels of the car made an uneven "doo" sound on the pavement tiles, and Meng Shanming looked calm in the morning light...
As the sun gradually rose, in the courtyard, Shang Chaozong and others who had packed their things appeared one after another, preparing to return to Nanzhou Fucheng with Tianyumen and his party.
When everyone met, they found that there was no one there, Meng Shanming was not there.
Everyone naturally waited, and Shang Chaozong waved a guard to go to Meng Shanming's courtyard.
The guard left for a while, then hurriedly returned and reported: "Your Majesty, Commander Meng is not here. I asked the guard at the door. The guard said that Commander Meng has gone out and left a letter for you." The letter was held with both hands.
superior.
Several people looked at each other, Shang Chaozong quickly took the letter, opened it and read the contents, frowning.
The general meaning of the letter is that we can't sit still and wait for death. It is always inappropriate to wait here for Niu Youdao to put eggs in one basket. Meng Shanming wants to find someone to find a way to resolve the crisis and let them not worry. He has his own problems.
The solution was to let them leave first. And because he was afraid that they would not agree, he secretly left a message and asked them not to disturb Tianyumen.
The letter passed through the hands of Lan Ruoting and Shang Shuqing again, and they both frowned. It turned out that the handwriting was indeed Meng Shanming's handwriting, but the decision had no beginning or end.
Shang Chaozong was suspicious, "Who can we find to resolve the crisis? There are disciples from the Tianyu Sect outside who are closely guarding us. Can Uncle Meng get out?"
Lan Ruoting hesitated and said: "Shuai Meng is not a reckless person. He must be confident in what he said."
The three of them looked at each other, confused by this letter and didn't know what to do. Should they inform Tianyumen to help find someone? But doing so violated Meng Shanming's careful instructions.
When something like this suddenly happened, a group of people were in a state of uproar.
Before long, Bai Yao arrived and urged us to set off.
They had no choice but to go out and meet Peng Youzai and others from Tianyumen. The horses rumbled out of the city.
Along the way, Shang Chaozong and others were all uneasy because of Mengshan's noise...
At the gate of the city, Feng Lingbo, who personally escorted Peng Youzai and others out of the city, let out a long breath and looked up at the sky, knowing that his own Nanzhou era was about to come.
"Go back." Peng Yulan, who was seeing him off at the side, urged.
"Yes!" Feng Lingbo nodded, turned around and led the escort back to the city.
After returning to the government office, Feng Lingbo strode straight to the side yard of the inner house. From a distance, he saw Meng Shanming sitting quietly in a wheelchair next to the waterside pavilion and Luo An pushing a wheelchair behind him. They did not run away, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Before leaving, Peng reiterated again and again that he was not a vegetarian, so he had to be careful not to make any mistakes, especially Niu Youdao, whose whereabouts were unknown. He didn't know what he might do, so he had to be cautious and cautious.
Niu Youdao's sudden disappearance has become a worry for Peng Youzai. He is worried that Niu Youdao will intervene, but he can't think of where Niu Youdao can start. He can get 30,000 horses from the land of Qi State.
War horse people!
A smile appeared on Feng Lingbo's face, and he quickly came to the waterside pavilion. He cupped his hands to Meng Shanming and said, "Shuai Meng, it is an honor for me to have you help stabilize the overall situation of Nanzhou. I hope that you will give me your guidance in the future."
Meng Shanming nodded slightly, "You're welcome, Governor, you should do your best!"
"Okay!" Feng Lingbo didn't have time to waste here, so he said politely: "This junior has a lot of chores to do, so I'll take my leave first. If you need anything, just tell my servants."
Meng Shanming responded calmly, "Captain, don't worry about me, just go on about your business!"
Feng Lingbo left and walked to the moon gate, then stopped and looked back at the old man in the wheelchair next to the waterside pavilion. There was something strange in his eyes, and then he strode out of the moon gate and disappeared.
"Luo An, are you afraid of death?" Meng Shanming suddenly asked quietly as he stared at the fish swimming in the water.
Luo An grinned, "Commander, I came from the heroic Wu Lie Guards. When I charged into battle, when did I, Luo An, ever fear death?"
Meng Shanming spoke in a low voice and spoke clearly: "Isn't your boy too young?"
Luo An said hey: "The older one is twelve years old, and the younger one is seven years old." He scratched his head as if he was a little embarrassed, and said coyly: "Commander, my mother-in-law said that when the boss is older, I would like to invite him.
The commander helps train him."
A faint smile appeared on Meng Shanming's face, "Your mother-in-law doesn't want her son to join the army. Is it your own idea?"
"Hehe, it's all the same, it's all the same." Luo An smiled dryly, a little embarrassed. He was indeed playing a trick.
Meng Shanming turned to look at him, reached back and patted the back of his hand, "Your mother-in-law said that she wanted your boy to learn some writing from Lan Ruoting. When she spoke, Xiaolan would not refuse. Just.
According to her, let your boys follow the prince first, the prince will take good care of them, don’t worry!"
Luo An was a little tired, but he was patted by Meng Shanming's hand and didn't say anything against it.
Meng Shanming turned around and leaned on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, gently tapped the armrest with his palms, and followed the vicissitudes of life tune slowly coming out of his mouth, his body was thin and bleak...
