Chapter 553

Niu Youdao raised his hand and touched his forehead. It was the first time he had seen someone from Shang Chaozong's side dare to treat him like this.

Just a servant, the prince's concubine spoke again, and several guards came like wolves and tigers.

However, the leading guard found something was wrong, and felt that Niu Youdao looked familiar, and seeing Niu Youdao's calm expression, his heart trembled suddenly, and he urgently stopped him: "Stop!"

Some of the guards had already put their hands on Niu Youdao's body, and the leading guard waved again and again, "Don't be rude!"

The two beauties frowned and looked at the leader.

A monk from Dachan Mountain appeared in the distance, and was startled by the two beauties saying "come", but after seeing that it was Niu Youdao, he didn't come over, just watched from a distance, and was a little curious about Niu Youdao What does it mean to dress up as a servant.

The leading guard stepped forward and tried to ask Niu Youdao, "Are you the Taoist?"

Niu Youdao looked at his clothes, and asked, "Can you recognize him if you dress like this?"

He wanted to make things bigger, but he didn't expect to be recognized.

The leading guard immediately sweated a little, and hurriedly handed over his hands to make amends, "Master Dao, it's because we have no eyes."

Master Dao, how many masters of Taoism can there be in this palace? Many people have admired them for a long time, but they have never seen them. They only heard that they came yesterday.

In fact, Niu Youdao didn't live with Shang Chaozong for much time, most of the time he lived separately from Shang Dynasty Zong, and Niu Youdao didn't show his face very much on Shang Chaozong's side.

If it were the old people around Shang Chaozong, the guards who followed him from the capital must have known Niu Youdao when they saw him.

These years have passed, and it is impossible for those personal guards to stay with Shang Chaozong as personal guards until they grow old.

Some of those personal guards were killed, and when the Shang Dynasty Zong was employing people, most of them had been promoted and sent to various places in Nanzhou to serve as officials. They controlled the subordinates for the Shang Dynasty Zong.

Only a small number of them are still in charge of guarding things in the palace. These people are all prominent figures in the palace now. If they leave the palace, everyone in Nanzhou will have to give some face, and they are unlikely to guard in the garden. here.

In short, those old people who followed the Shang Dynasty did not follow the wrong people, and the price they paid was worth it, and they all followed the Shang Dynasty.

The farther the Shang Dynasty Zong went and the higher they climbed, the better their future would be. If the Shang Dynasty Zong fell, they would be the first to be purged. Their interests were tied together, so they were all loyal to the Shang Dynasty Zong.

The two beauties were astonished, Master Dao? Could this be Niu Youdao?

The two have never met before, and they don't usually have the chance to see each other. For example, they were not qualified to attend yesterday's banquet.

Although they are all women of the Shang Dynasty, the main wife is the main wife, and the concubine's room is the concubine's room, and the status is doomed to many things.

What is title? In short, it is justifiable!

On formal occasions, no matter how good-looking or not, the hostess must be the hostess who sits on an equal footing with distinguished guests. People with status will definitely pay attention to this, and the concubine's room can only be used as a foil in informal occasions.

What's more, the two of them are not actually Shang Chaozong's concubines. Although they are already similar to Shang Chaozong's concubines, Shang Chaozong did not formally marry after all.

For Shang Chaozong, his eyes are not limited to Nanzhou. He is not yet at the time of being greedy for pleasure and taking concubines, so the influence is not good.

But this is what the two women are fighting for.

Knowing that this might be the person behind the legendary prince, the two came over in a panic, and Yuniang tried to ask anxiously, "Are you Niu Youdao, Daoist?"

Niu Youdao: "I don't dare to be a Daoist, but I am a Niu Youdao. I haven't seen you two in the palace before, dare to ask who you are?"

The second girl feels like crying but has no tears. You are such a big person, why are you wearing the clothes of a servant? Hurry up and greet, "Yu Niang, Wan Niang, pay homage to Master Dao."

"Yu Niang, Wan Niang?" Niu Youdao muttered suspiciously, as if a little puzzled, he turned around and asked the leading guard, "I haven't heard of it, who is it?"

The lead guard was also embarrassed, and it was a little difficult to explain, saying that it was the prince's concubine, so he hesitated to remind him, "The prince's people, two young ladies."

"Oh!" Niu Youdao suddenly realized, "That's really offensive."

"No, no, it was the concubine who offended the Taoist master because of her lack of eyesight." The second daughter hurriedly apologized.

Niu Youdao ignored him, and said to the leading guard: "Please ask the princess to come here."

"Yes!" The lead guard ran away quickly, and quickly notified Feng Ruonan to go.

After a while, Feng Ruonan came and saw Niu Youdao with the two terrified women. He didn't know what happened, so he stepped forward to pay respects.

Niu Youdao also told what happened just now, and apologized to Feng Ruonan, the hostess.

Feng Ruonan didn't like to talk about the two women's affairs, so he didn't say a word, but the two beauties repeatedly apologized.

Seeing this situation, Niu Youdao had nowhere to exert his strength due to Feng Ruonan's attitude, so Niu Youdao didn't say much, let alone the interest in continuing to wander in the garden, and left.

...

In the small courtyard, Meng Shanming stretched his arms on the wheelchair, exercising his arm strength.

Luo Daan brought a bucket of hot water from the outside, walked quickly to the wheelchair, and reported: "Master, something happened. I heard that there was a conflict between the two concubines of the Taoist and the prince in the garden just now. The prince and Mr. Lan I have heard the news and rushed over, do you want to go and have a look?"

Meng Shanming slowly unloaded his arms, sat back on the wheelchair, was silent for a while, and shook his head, "I won't go, you go and find out what's going on."

"Okay!" Luo Da'an nodded and ran away. Young people like to be lively and interested in such things.

...

When Niu Youdao slowly returned to the guest house, Guan Fangyi was reminiscing with Shang Shuqing.

Seeing Niu Youdao come back dressed like this, Shang Shuqing was surprised, and Guan Fangyi was even more overjoyed, "I said, Lord, what kind of show are you acting in!"

"Don't mention it." Niu Youdao waved his hand.

The three of them went to the pavilion and just sat down when Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting came hurriedly.

Seeing the people in the pavilion, the two came quickly, and Shang Chaozong was surprised: "Master Dao, why are you dressed like this?"

Niu Youdao smiled wryly: "When I came back here, I found that the governor's mansion is quite big, so I walked around, impatient with the endless politeness along the way, so I asked the servants in the mansion to ask for a change of clothes, but accidentally It is really embarrassing to bump into the woman of the prince in the garden!"

Shang Shuqing was surprised, what's going on?

Guan Fangyi glanced at Niu Youdao with a half-smile.

I have already heard about the matter here, otherwise I would not have come here. Shang Chaozong hurriedly said: "Master Dao is serious, and Master Dao did not offend him in any way. Don't take it to heart, I'll let the two of them come and apologize."

This side has been looking forward to Niu Youdao's arrival, and finally came, but was taught a lesson by two unreliable women here, what is this called.

"Don't dare!" Niu Youdao waved his hand to stop him, "I can see that just now, even the princess didn't dare to say a word in front of the two of them, so what kind of temper can I have? I'm surprised, I understand the temper of the princess , I think back then even the prince dared to beat up, those two people who could frighten the concubine's temper, they must be easy to mess with, and it's fine, let's forget it."

Hearing that sister-in-law didn't dare to say anything in front of those two women, Shang Shuqing pursed her lips and looked sideways at her brother.

There was a vague smile on the corner of Guan Fangyi's mouth.

Lan Ruoting, who was here to help ease the situation, also fell silent, it's not easy for outsiders to intervene in this kind of family affairs.

Shang Chaozong looked embarrassed, "Master Dao, it's not that serious, I'll let them come here."

Niu Youdao waved his hand again, "My lord, don't look for trouble. Women are small-minded. The way you two look at me is already wrong, and they are hiding murderous intentions! If you mess with them again and lose face, this grudge will be over." It's down, once they gain power in the future, I don't know what will happen. I can't afford to mess with it, stop it if you can, let's forget it!"

Even the word "hidden murderous intent" came out, which surprised Shang Chaozong and others.

"Huang Lie should be here soon, I'm going to change clothes to meet people." Niu Youdao turned around and left the pavilion, and went into the house.

Guan Fangyi bowed slightly, smiled apologetically at the others, and followed.

Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting left in silence.

Shang Shuqing didn't stay any longer when such a incident happened, she wanted to find out what was going on.

...

In the courtyard, Meng Shanming poured hot water to wash his face, Luo Daan, who was inquiring about the news, did not come back, but Lan Ruoting, who was separated from Shang Chaozong, came, sighing.

"What's the matter, it seems to be dying." Meng Shanming asked with a hot towel on his face.

"Something happened..." Lan Ruoting explained the situation.

Kneading the towel into a ball in his hand, Meng Shanming asked, "What does the prince mean?"

Lan Ruoting smiled bitterly: "What's the point? The Taoist priest mentioned his friendship with the concubine in front of Huang Tong yesterday, and this incident happened this morning. The Taoist said that he was impatient with the etiquette of the people in the house and changed his subordinates." I accidentally bumped into the prince’s woman in the garden, Meng Shuai, do you believe it? The prince is not stupid, and the Daoist is clearly supporting the princess! It’s just because it’s the prince’s family matter, he doesn’t want to pick a word That's all."

"It's hard for us to say anything about this kind of thing, let the prince figure it out." Meng Shan sighed.

...

Shang Chaozong who walked into the hall sat down.

The two beauties, Yuniang serving tea, Wanniang carefully asked: "My lord, didn't that Daoist say anything?"

Shang Chaozong remained expressionless and silent.

Yuniang said aggrievedly: "My lord, we didn't say anything, we really didn't know each other at first, and our sisters had never seen him before, and he was wearing the clothes of a servant, so it was difficult not to misunderstand him, and we all apologized." , what else does he want to do?"

Wan Niang also chimed in and said: "We are the prince's women anyway, and we have nothing to do. If he keeps going on, he will not take the prince seriously."

Shang Chaozong turned his head, looked at her coldly, then got up and left.

...

Feng Ruonan actually didn't understand what happened. It wasn't until Shang Shuqing came to ask her that she realized that Niu Youdao was looking for trouble on purpose and came to support her. She really didn't expect that Niu Youdao could deliberately I was really moved to spend this thought on her and shed tears silently.

Shang Shuqing hugged her head and cried together, "Sister-in-law, why are you so stupid, why didn't you tell me what happened?"

She only knew after listening to Niu Youdao that Feng Ruonan, as the royal concubine, dared not even speak in front of those two women.

Even Niu Youdao, an outsider, knew about it and came to the fore, but she, who had been with her sister-in-law for a long time, was like a fool.

In the past, I only thought that my sister-in-law could not let go of her grievances with the Feng family, but now I know that my sister-in-law has suffered such a big grievance silently, and it made her feel so sad and remorseful, and cried like a mess.
