Shocked! After being confirmed, the three of them were still a little incredulous, if Dao Ye was not dead, who would dare to use the Ethereal Pavilion to come out and talk nonsense, and be impatient?

There was no joy under the sudden sight, but a lot of suspicion.

The three of them were even a little suspicious, to be exact, they didn't dare to recognize each other rashly, worried about whether Guan Fangyi and they had made a fake attempt to do something.

People who have reached their point have been in struggle for a long time, and there are too many deceits involved, and it is easy to conspire theories.

Niu Youdao spoke up, "I'm worried that it's fake? It can't be fake, and it can't be fake." This sentence alone seems to be too lazy to explain.

Guan Fangyi said again: "I won't come to disturb, Dao Ye's original intention is that if he can't come back, let us not disturb you, just leave, and let you go directly to the Zijin Cave." However, Dao Ye came back quietly, and the arrangement of things after his death naturally had to change, which is also the purpose of our visit. ”

Lan Ruoting, a person with the nature of "master", couldn't change his problem, so he tried to ask: "Why is it that the Ethereal Pavilion has said that the master has been killed in the Holy Realm?"

Niu Youdao said coldly: "Lan Ruoting, are you questioning me?"

Meng Shanming and Shang Chaozong glanced at each other and found that the voice did look like him.

Lan Ruoting hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Don't dare, I just want to know the reason." ”

Niu Youdao: "The rivers and lakes are walking, whether it is the wind or the rain, the matter of life and death is not worth mentioning." Jianghu affairs, Jianghu affairs, I will deal with it, you don't need to know too much. Also, the news of my life is confidential, don't let anyone else know, including the princess and the county lord, and no one in Nanzhou is allowed to tell you except the three of you. ”

There are some things that I don't dare to let them know for the time being, for fear that they will be frightened if they know.

The reason why he appeared in front of the three of them was first to stabilize the situation, and secondly, it was confirmed by Sha Rulai that there would be no problem with these three people.

The three of them looked at each other again, feeling that this style was also like Niu Youdao's style, but before they were completely confirmed, they could only respond with a false and aggrieved voice, "Yes!"

The question of truth and falsehood was directly skimmed, and Niu Youdao said directly, "I received news on the way, Situ Yao has been here?"

Shang Chaozong was a little cautious, and replied reservedly: "Yes! After learning the news of Dao Ye's death, Situ Yao came to ask where Nanzhou was going, and after confirming, he returned to Jinzhou. ”

In fact, Situ Yao first went to Liuxian Sect, Fuyun Sect, and Lingxiu Mountain to pay a visit, but found that the heads of the three factions were not there.

After hearing the news of Niu Youdao's death, the heads of the three factions all ran to the Zijin Cave, worried about the future, and wanted to go to the Zijin Cave first to find confidence before making a decision.

And after Situ Yao said goodbye here, he actually did not return to Jinzhou, but also went to Zijin Cave, just hiding it from Shang Chaozong.

Niu Youdao: "Situ Yao's coming, it is expected, the two states have always advanced and retreated together, he doesn't know which one you will fall to, in case you fall to Xiaoyao Palace and Lingjian Mountain, he is worried that he will pounce in the wrong direction, and he has no bottom in his heart." Xiaoyao Palace and Lingjian Mountain, can someone come to communicate?"

Shang Chaozong hesitated for a moment, and replied cautiously: "People are here, and they sent people to communicate secretly with this side, but we didn't agree, and they don't seem to be unwilling." ”

Niu Youdao: "Don't refuse too directly, stabilize them first, and I will borrow the two of them to pressure the Zijin Cave." ”

Shang Chaozong asked: "What does it mean to exert pressure?"

Niu Youdao: "The Zijin Cave detained a batch of my things, and the batch of bird mounts in my thatched house courtyard were robbed by the Zijin Cave." On the surface, I am dead after all, it is inevitable that Zijin Cave will take the opportunity to control Nanzhou, and when I turn around, Zijin Cave will send someone to talk to the prince about complete submission, and some requests will be put forward at the opportunity. ”

"First of all, the people of the thatched house are stationed in Nanzhou, and they will be by the prince's side in the future, and they can use the old love as an excuse to not let the people of the thatched house have nowhere to go. Secondly, my batch of bird mounts, you will be included in the conditions by the way, and let them return to Lao Tzu. ”

Lan Ruoting interjected, "Can you agree to these conditions in the Zijin Cave?" Now that the people of the Zijin Cave have strengthened their control in advance, controlling the safety of the prince and the others, the people are in their hands, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist. They have been keeping a close eye on them recently, and even the people from Xiaoyao Palace and Lingjian Mountain are acting secretly when they meet with the prince. ”

Niu Youdao: "Even if you go to talk, even if you put forward these requirements I said, they don't dare to do anything to you." Now that Nanzhou has been messed up, Jinzhou, which has always advanced and retreated together, has to panic, I used to be here, and they have not been able to put their hands in Jinzhou, and for a while they can't control Jinzhou, forcing Jinzhou to fall to Xiaoyao Palace and Lingjian Mountain is not what they want to see. ”

"You don't have to worry, the negotiation is just a pretense, I have already finalized it on Gong Lince's side, he needs an excuse to explain to the sect, with his ability to control the inside of the Zijin Cave, the Zijin Cave will agree to these requests. ”

Shang Chaozong was surprised and said, "What does Dao Ye mean that Gong Lince also knows that you are still alive?"

Niu Youdao nodded, "Don't let him know that it's not okay, otherwise the situation will get out of control, and now many things still need his cooperation." ”

Shang Chaozong: "After the Liuxian Sect, Lingxiu Mountain, and Fuyun Sect learned of the death of Dao Ye, they seemed to have some abnormal movements. ”

Niu Youdao: "The three of them don't have to worry, at most they will go to Zijin Cave to hug their thighs, and they don't have the courage or confidence to fight against Gong Lince." I have already negotiated with Gong Lince, and he will instruct the three factions to obey your dispatch and not be disturbed by the others in the Purple Gold Cave. ”

"After you return to Zijin Cave, you must cooperate with Gong Lince, so that Nanzhou can only be taken over by Gong Lince's people in person. On the surface, it was Gong Lince's forces in Zijin Cave that took over my forces. In fact, everything will remain the same, for my previous forces, no matter what kind of decision Gong Lince makes, it will be superficial, and it will be approved by me in advance. What to do with the affairs of the Southern State, you continue on your own, and no one will interfere with you. ”

"Before I came, Gong Lince had communicated with me, saying that Weiguo asked for help, intending to let Meng Shuai rush to Weiguo to command the Weijun to fight. Your feedback Zijin Cave has received it, but it has not replied to you, and it is still discussing on the surface, but in fact, it is waiting for me to come and make a decision. ”

"The war in the west involves a lot, and I don't want the Jin Kingdom to sit big. I'm going to ask Meng Shuai today, if you let you go, are you sure you can win?"

Having said that, the three of them all understood, it was not a fake, the true Taoist master was back!

"I'm afraid it's useless for me to go...... Meng Shanming said slowly, roughly repeating what he had said to Shang Chaozong before.

Niu Youdao stood up and paced back and forth, "It seems that the defense of the country is in a catastrophe and it is very likely that it will be difficult to escape." ”

He thought of the situation of the group of people in the Shangqing Sect, stopped and said, "Since it is useless to go, but it will threaten Meng Shuai's safety, then don't go." You don't have to worry about this, I will inform Gong Lince, and Zijin Cave will give you a reassuring answer. Do as I say, and take care of what is in front of you. ”

"And Gwangju. After the news of my death comes out, I am afraid that Dazen Mountain will be dishonest. Keep an eye on the movements of Gwangju, dare to be dishonest, immediately unite with Jinju, mobilize people from the two states, and put on an offensive posture! Directly intimidate by force, don't care about the attitude of other people, I will deal with the rest. ”

Shang Chaozong responded: "Okay!"

Niu Youdao: "As for Jinzhou, the matter of my fake death is very important, and I can't leak the news, and I can't let them know that I'm still alive for the time being." But fortunately, they have always advanced and retreated with Nanzhou, as long as you show your attitude and calm their hearts, they don't want any of the three major factions to send someone to meddle in Jinzhou, and they will cooperate with you. ”

"If I really refuse to cooperate with you, I will deal with it when the time comes!"

For Jinzhou, he was not worried at all, not to mention anything else, just the secret of Chiyang Zhuguo was enough for those people to be shocked.

Now that "Niu Youdao" is dead, there is no way to move out and threaten Niu Youdao in turn, and the situation of secret mutual clamping has been broken, and he can only threaten one family.

Shang Dynasty Zong bowed, "Understood." ”

Niu Youdao: "As soon as I arrive, the person sent by Zijin Cave to negotiate is also about to arrive, prepare as soon as possible, if there is anything unclear, I should not show up, you can communicate with the matchmaker at any time." Also, I heard what you said about the banquet... Before the results of the negotiation come out, you should keep a little distance from the people in the thatched house, so as not to react too much in advance from the people in Zijin Cave, and wait until everything is implemented. ”

"You should not stay here for a long time, if you have anything to say, go back!" waved his sleeves.

The three of them said goodbye, and Guan Fangyi sent them off.

Leaving the hotel, the three of Shang Chaozong looked back at the high-walled compound, looked at each other again, smiled knowingly, and breathed a sigh of relief.

I have to admit that as soon as he came back, all the troubles and worries in front of him seemed to be solved.

Those who got on the horse got on the horse, and those who boarded the car boarded the car, and the group left and returned to the palace.

This place is not too far from the palace, and when they arrived at the gate of the palace, a carriage was quickly driven aside by the sergeant to make way for the arriving Shang Dynasty.

Shang Chaozong on horseback took a look and saw a rather elegant man who also retreated to the side with the carriage.

That man, Shang Chaozong naturally knew him, and there was only a word difference between him and Fu Junrang, the elder of Zijin Cave, his name was Fu Junlan, and he wanted to have a good character, and he wanted to be talented and talented, and he was the brother-in-law of Shang Chaozong.

Shang Chaozong smiled when he saw this, turned over and jumped off the horse, waved his hand to let the group of sergeants on the side retreat, and strode over.

Fu Junlan hurriedly saluted, "I've seen the prince." ”

Shang Chaozong smiled: "Junlan is here, come to see Shuqing?"

Fu Junlan was slightly embarrassed and replied, "Yes! ”

Because they all knew that this husband who might be the county lord in the future, Meng Shanming, who was carrying a wheelchair off the carriage, and Lan Ruoting all came over, and they all greeted politely, "Fu Gongzi is here." ”

"Meng Shuai, Mr. Lan. Fu Junlan was polite and saluted one by one.

The Fu family members who were leading the carriage on the side, their faces were both nervous and excited, nodding their heads, and the smiling faces accompanying them were almost stiff.

These three are powerful figures in Nanzhou, especially Prince Yong, who holds the power of soldiers and horses, and they are all pivotal figures in the entire Yan Kingdom. Once Gongzi becomes Prince Yong's brother-in-law, the Fu family will immediately become a first-class wealthy family in Nanzhou.

He, a servant, knew very well that the relatives of the entire Fu family were looking forward to this marriage very much, and now that he saw the son, which was not a polite stammer, it made the son have a headache.

PS: Aunt Huang is here! "Brother Zhengzhou Binge" has been sending out red envelopes for monthly passes one after another, and the old friends don't say much to thank them, and I will look for you to eat another day.
