Niu Youdao couldn't help but look back, and saw Guan Fangyi looking at him with a complicated expression, and said in shock: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Guan Fangyi sighed: "Why do I feel that you are getting more and more playful now? Haven't you noticed that you are getting deeper and deeper into these grievances and grievances?"
"Can we still look back? There's no point in saying this. There's no turning back. We can only keep moving forward." Niu Youdao shook his head, then smiled and joked: "Then again, the bigger you play, the more money you make."
The more you earn, isn’t that just what you want?”
"I think the more I spend, the more afraid I am of losing my life to spend my life!" Guan Fangyi said with disdain, turned around and left.
When the guests came, Niu Youdao did not go out to greet them. Instead, he sat in the pavilion and waited on the small clay stove to make tea.
After walking to the door, Yu Cang and others were not allowed to enter, nor were they allowed to enter.
No matter what grievances he had secretly, he was still a famous person on the surface, and he still had to show the minimum etiquette for others to see.
"Here, come in!" Niu Youdao stood in the pavilion, revealed his head from behind the cover of green plants, and waved his hand.
Yucang then led several people in, and he and Dugujing entered the pavilion.
The rest dispersed around and were told that important matters were discussed here and no one was allowed to come near them.
Yu Cang sat opposite, looking at Niu Youdao who was using a drill to stir up the charcoal fire, and coldly snorted: "How elegant."
Niu Youdao smiled and said, "It's just started, the water hasn't boiled yet, please wait a moment."
Yu Cang looked around, "Where is my nephew?"
Niu Youdao: "Of course it's a knife and ax, and your life hangs by a thread!"
Yucang: "Is this how you want to be a teacher?"
Niu Youdao: "I originally set my heart towards the bright moon, but I'm afraid that the bright moon will shine on the ditch. It's better to be careful. Only when I sit down can I feel at ease."
These words were tantamount to acknowledging who sent the letter to someone's head. Yu Cang's cheeks tightened and she said, "Let the person go. I don't need to pursue the past matters and just pretend that they never happened."
“What you say is unfounded.”
"What kind of guarantee you want can be discussed."
"It's enough to have something in hand that you can discuss with. No other guarantee is needed. If you are really sincere, just let me take this student away."
"Niu Youdao, don't be ungrateful. It's not good for you to do things absolutely. It really makes me angry. You know our strength. No matter what you have behind you, you can't live in peace in this life. You
I can get rid of those people below for you one by one."
"Mr. Yucang, I'm not kidding! The fact that I can come back to you after I have escaped shows my sincerity. I like to make friends and talk about cooperation. If sir, you really want to compromise and not pursue the case, we might as well put the bad things to bed.
It's a good thing. I might as well say it clearly. A mere Nanzhou cannot satisfy my appetite. I need more help. I am very interested in the strength of Xiaoyue Pavilion. This is the purpose of my coming back to see my husband. Does he really think that I am just
Come back to collect a student's bad words? I won't be so motivated in the eyes of my husband, right? After knowing my husband's identity and looking at his past, Xiaoyue Pavilion seems not to want to hide in the dark all his life. Xiaoyue Pavilion's influence on Beizhou
If you are interested, are you not interested in my power in Nanzhou?"
Yucang's eyes flickered and he snorted coldly: "When did Nanzhou become yours? You'd better think about how to deal with Tianyumen first."
Niu Youdao shook his head: "Tianyumen is not worth mentioning, they will be kicked out of Nanzhou soon."
Yu Cang was shocked and doubtful, and narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you kidding me?"
The tea on the side was boiling. Niu Youdao reached for the pot and poured two cups of tea slowly. Regardless of whether the other party drank it or not, he pushed one over. "This kind of thing does not need to be explained, and it is not appropriate to say more now, sir."
Let’s wait and see.”
Since he didn't say anything, Yu Cang didn't talk nonsense: "You talk about cooperation, but you have my people in your hands. What kind of cooperation is it?"
Niu Youdao boasted about the tea soup: "If we don't detain people, you and I won't be able to sit together, and Mr. Yucang won't expose his identity and talk to me. There must be a basis for cooperation in everything."
"Don't say those useless things. Let me ask you, how can you let him go?"
"I have no intention of letting him go! I must take him away."
Yu Cang was furious, and Dugu Jing on the side also had an angry look on his face.
Niu Youdao immediately raised his hand to signal for peace of mind, "Of course, we sincerely cooperate."
Yu Cang said angrily: "You are holding my person captive and talking to me sincerely?"
Niu Youdao: "Do you think I like to keep your people hostage? You Xiaoyue Pavilion are not good people. You don't know your reputation? It won't be long before everyone knows about my admission of students.
, I don’t need to remind you of the pros and cons, right? This is the basis of cooperation! If it’s just to kill him, there’s no need for me to come back. If you let him go now, you won’t let it go, and I’ll have to hold a hostage in my hands. So, I don’t want to come back now.
Maybe he will be released! As for the future, if everyone really cooperates to a certain extent and is deeply involved, do you think I still need to hold him captive?"
Yu Cang frowned and was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "How much does Bu Xun know?"
Niu Youdao: "How much he can know depends on how much you and I are willing to let him know. If you are willing to expose the matter, I have no objection."
…
Inside the palace, Bu Xun stood under the eaves outside the imperial study room, while Hao Yuntu was handling government affairs inside.
Bu Fang arrived, went up the steps, walked to him and whispered: "Yu Cang went to Tongfang Garden and met with Niu Youdao for about an hour before leaving."
Bu Xun looked far into the distance and said, "What the hell are these two people doing? They actually got me involved. There must be something wrong. Keep watching!"
He himself couldn't tell what the problem was. In short, he felt vaguely that he was being used. However, the present day was different from the past. The Niu Youdao of today was no longer the Niu Youdao of the past. He was getting more and more wings and it was difficult to act rashly.
Before, he could just grab Niu Youdao and pry open Niu Youdao's mouth.
We can't fight hard now. If Niu Youdao is caught, the conflict between Tianyumen and Shang Chaozong in Nanzhou is about to break out. Maybe there will be problems and the whole body will be affected.
As for Yu Cang, it is even less possible for him to catch him by force.
"Yes!" Bu Fang agreed.
…
In Tianwei Mansion, Xuan Wei slowly raised her head after the case, her eyes moved away from the document on the case, and fell on the face of Jiang Shiji opposite, and asked in surprise: "Why did you go to Jin? Are you sure Shao Pingbo is in Jin?"
"
Tang Yi, who had become a bodyguard at the side, also looked at it.
Jiang Shiji said: "It's not wrong. The middle door of the Jin Palace was wide open. Tai Shuxiong came out of the palace to greet him. He took off his royal robe with his own hands, joined Shao Pingbo, and entered the palace holding hands with Shao Pingbo. This scene was witnessed by many people.
See, you can’t go wrong.”
"The Jin Kingdom is so militarily violent and extremely poor that they abandon our country to recruit people and settle down in that poverty-stricken place, haha!" Xuan Wei laughed angrily, "Are you insulting me?"
What really made her angry was that her previous judgment was proved. Shao Pingbo really didn't think highly of Weiguo. What made her unbearable was that Shao Pingbo actually chose the poorest country among the seven countries to seek refuge.
The Jin State was aggressive in military affairs and launched conquests whenever there was an opportunity, wasting people and money. Many wise men and talents were afraid to avoid it, but Shao Pingbo went against the current. Was he blind or had extraordinary vision?
What shocked her even more was what Tai Shuxiong did. He treated Shao Pingbo so favorably and gave Shao Pingbo such extraordinary treatment!
After all, the Wei State is still a little afraid of the Jin State. Although the Jin State is poor among the seven countries, it is better because of the integration of politics and religion. The Qiyun Sect was founded by people from the Taishu clan, and the leaders of the past generations were also from the Taishu clan.
The current sect leader is Tai Shuxiong's grandfather in terms of seniority.
I don’t know if it’s because of blood relationship, but the descendants of Taishu’s clan can easily possess the physique for cultivation. Taishuxiong himself is the only monk among the emperors of the Seven Kingdoms.
Precisely because of the integration of politics and religion in the Jin State, other sects that were excluded had limited interest space in the Jin State. In order to obtain greater benefits, they continued to promote Jin's foreign invasion.
However, a poor country does not mean that the country is the weakest. Qiyun Sect is good at refining weapons, so Jin's armor is the sharpest among the seven countries.
Having such an ambitious neighbor nearby gave Wei and Qi a headache. You couldn't drive them away, and you couldn't move yourself either. They had to join forces to suppress them many times to contain Jin.
Shao Pingbo actually abandoned his wealth to become poor, and Tai Shuxiong treated him so kindly, which gave Xuan Wei a feeling of complicit and frightened.
She didn't know if it was her misunderstanding, but she was keenly aware that she needed to strengthen surveillance over Jin State.
Tang Yishao was slightly surprised, not only by the courtesy Jin gave Shao Pingbo, but also by Xuanwei's words. Only now did she know that Xuanwei also wanted to recruit Shao Pingbo. She couldn't help but be afraid secretly, and almost bumped into Shao Pingbo's hand again. Shangqing
Zong has been suppressed by Shao Pingbo for many years, and she is a little afraid of Shao Pingbo subconsciously.
…
In a few days, a piece of news came out from the Jin Kingdom, shocking the whole world.
The Emperor of Jin Dynasty made Shao Pingbo the governor of Beizhou!
This is clearly a false position. The Jin State conferred official positions on other countries' territories through other countries. Isn't this a joke and a hooligan?
But the meaning and ambition are puzzling.
Of course, it was also because Shao Pingbo had little qualifications within the Jin State and had no merit. He assumed a high position and was unable to explain to the internal affairs, so he was given a false position.
Yan State and South Korea immediately quit. They both believed that Beizhou belonged to them and immediately denounced it!
The State of Jin doesn't care about this. You can denounce me as much as you like. If you have the ability, come and beat me!
The Yan State and South Korea had no choice but to treat the Jin State, and it was not polite to come and go. Later, they also appointed officials in the Jin State's territory, just like child's play, this is all for later.
…
At the Prince's Mansion, Haozhen returned from the palace and was greeted by Shao Liu'er, who took off his cloak with his own hands.
Seeing that Haozhen seemed to have something on his mind, Shao Liuer put his cloak on his arm and tried to ask, "My father suddenly invited you into the palace, are you okay?"
"Do you have any contact with your brother?" Haozhen asked seemingly casually.
Shao Liuer shook his head, "No contact yet."
"After all, we are brothers and sisters, and we have to keep in touch with each other as we should." Haozhen advised him and then kept silent, then added, "If there is no communication channel, the letter can be sent directly to the envoy stationed in Jin for delivery on his behalf.
"
Shao Liu'er was stunned for a moment, and then understood that her husband was usually very cautious and did not dare to use public weapons for personal use. This time he entered the palace, he must have received His Majesty's permission. It seemed that his brother's defection to the Jin Kingdom had attracted His Majesty's attention.
"Oh, that brother of yours is extraordinary and powerful!" Haozhen sighed again after sitting down, which undoubtedly showed his thoughts.
Shao Liuer was in a daze, remembering what Shao Pingbo said before leaving, do you think I really have no other choice but to defect to Haozhen?
The words came true. She didn't expect that not only Weiguo helped her brother escape, but even the Emperor of Jin would treat him so politely, which made her feel a little disappointed.
Hao Zhen, who was sitting there with his head bowed and silent, felt lost. Tai Shuxiong's extremely high courtesy made him vaguely feel that he had missed something, and he could not help but compare his own mind with Tai Shuxiong...
