Chapter 559

The so-called secret place refers to the mountain village where Meng Shanming and others hid.

Niu Youdao nodded, heard it, but his thoughts wandered a little, and he asked: "You said Shao Pingbo is not good, he is in Beizhou, and the news is not good, but he can judge Chao Shenghuai from the Wanshoumen." Controlled by me."

He also learned about this matter from Dachan Mountain later, but it wasn't that Dachanshan told him on its own initiative. This kind of unsubstantiated matter involved the high-level officials of Wanshoumen, and Dachanshan would not take the initiative to talk nonsense. It was when he inquired about Shao Pingbo's details before and after he escaped in Beizhou and wanted to deduce where Shao Pingbo had gone, and he learned it by accident.

At that time, he was really amazed, and his determination to chase and kill him became more and more firm, but he was still run away by Shao Pingbo.

Guan Fangyi didn't know what he was talking about, "You mean Shao Pingbo will intervene?"

Niu Youdao: "If there is no evidence, he has to consider if he wants to intervene, and his main energy is not on me now. Let's not talk about whether he intervenes or not, but Chao Shenghuai is afraid that he will get angry and might go all out to find me , Inform the family that Chao Sheng Huairuo has arrived, send him over to me."

Guan Fangyi hummed, "There is one more thing. Song Shu was released by the court before he was escorted to the capital. According to the news from the prince, he just sent Nanzhou to Dingzhou not long ago. , Dingzhou released the people. The news from the prince said that the case of the Song family’s extermination has not yet been found out. This matter has not been ordered by the court. Xue Xiao, the governor of Dingzhou, would not do this. Noticed, Xue Xiao blatantly sent someone to escort Song Shu to the capital."

Niu Youdao heheed, "There is no cover-up at all. It seems that the imperial court can't wait to tear themselves apart with Nanzhou, and they don't give any face. Contact Xiaoyue Pavilion and stop people on the way, together with Xue Xiao's people Get rid of it, bring back the head and throw it to Xue Xiao."

Guan Fangyi frowned, "Just do it if you do it, why is it so troublesome?"

Niu Youdao: "Once the face is torn apart, Dingzhou is the frontier to attack Nanzhou. It is not bad to give Xue Xiao a little warning and deterrence. If the court wants to slap me in the face, I have to show the necessary strength. If they want to let them go, they will let them go." Can you let it go?"

Guan Fangyi, "You are recruiting people from Xiaoyue Pavilion here, and you are asking Xiaoyue Pavilion to rob people there. What do you think of Xiaoyue Pavilion? Can people listen to you?"

"It's not whether they can listen to me, but they want to tie me up to death. Don't worry, Xiaoyue Pavilion will do their best. They hope to catch me more."

"Being caught by someone, have you considered the consequences?"

"Matchmaker, our strength is too weak, and the situation we are about to face does not allow us to worry about gains and losses. I don't want to give others a blame, but if I don't make certain sacrifices and refuse to take any losses, I will suffer even greater losses. Let’s not talk about this, when will Xiaoyue Pavilion’s manpower be ready?”

"It should be soon, and we'll get a message when it's in place. What are you planning to do with the people from Xiaoyue Pavilion here? Worried that Hai Ruyue will settle accounts with you?"

"Hai Ruyue won't settle accounts with me, but as long as I dare to show up here, maybe someone will miss me, so why not test the waters and make plans for the future... Listening to Fang Zhe's words, as expected, the envoys of all countries are basically On the way to Jinzhou to congratulate, we can't wait for the imperial court to deal with it passively, we might as well use offense as defense!"

"Based on offense?"

Niu Youdao didn't answer, looked up and down at the dress of the peasant woman who was watching over Guan Fangyi, and said with a smile: "It looks pretty dressed like this, but the skin is a little white, it doesn't look like it."

He himself is not much better, dressed like an ordinary farmer, the two of them have changed their appearance, pretending to be a couple who came to seek relatives, otherwise it would be too conspicuous in this village.

"Go!" Guan Fangyi spat.

...

In the Jinzhou Governor's Mansion, Zhao Sen stood in the courtyard in formal attire as an eunuch, wearing a cloak, and several followers stood behind him.

On the opposite side, a row of Wandong Tianfu disciples stood guard.

Li Wuhua came out from the backyard, stood not far away and stared at this side for a while, then walked over slowly, cupped his hands and said: "Eunuch Zhao is here in person, I am too far away to welcome you."

Zhao Sen said indifferently: "I was ordered by the Queen Mother to visit the eldest princess. Is this how you treat guests? Do you not take the Queen Mother seriously, or do you want to rebel?"

"Eunuch Zhao is serious." Li Wuhua waved his hands and smiled, shaking his head apologetically, "It's not that Eunuch Zhao is not allowed to see the princess, but that the princess is weak after giving birth and can't stand any wind and cold. The doctor told me to stay in bed and rest. The princess sees the guests. I think the queen mother will definitely obey the doctor's arrangements for her daughter, don't you think, Eunuch Zhao?"

This is of course an excuse. Before they can figure out the depth of all the personnel on the other side, they don't dare to let these people meet Hai Ruyue, worrying about any accidents. It's no secret that Hai Wuji has no good intentions here.

Now that Hai Ruyue became his wife and gave birth to a son for him, how could he not care about protecting her.

Zhao Sen was silent, the reason why he was asked to come was because of his status, but unexpectedly he still couldn't even see Hai Ruyue's face.

But I didn’t force it. I know it’s useless to force it. The more you force it, the more people suspect there is a ghost, and the less they will let him go to see it. Maybe something bad will happen, so I asked: "The eldest princess is giving birth at this age. I want to know the current state of health. Anyway, go back and return to the Queen Mother."

Li Wuhua said hehe: "The childbirth age is a bit old, but fortunately the eldest princess is in good health. Our Wandong Tianfu is not a vegetarian. With careful care, the princess is in good health. Please tell the queen mother that everything is fine. Don't worry about it." Worry."

Zhao Sen raised one hand over his shoulder and waved, and two people from the left and right behind came forward with two boxes. He said: "This is a congratulatory gift ordered by the Empress Dowager to bring to the Eldest Princess. Please pass it on to the Eldest Princess."

"It's easy to say." Li Wuhua nodded and beckoned, and someone immediately stepped forward to take the two boxes.

As a daughter here, there is no reason not to accept the gift from the mother's visit, but it is up to this side to decide how to deal with it.

After accepting the gift, Li Wuhua was not reserved, and asked directly: "I heard that Mr. Zhao is patrolling the four directions on behalf of His Majesty. He must be busy. I don't know when he will leave Jinzhou?"

These words made it clear that there was a suspicion of chasing the guest, and it was true that he wished that the other party would leave as soon as possible.

Zhao Sen said calmly: "The Empress Dowager has an order. It is inconvenient for her old man to go out in the capital, and it is inconvenient for her grandson to come in person for her grandson's full moon wine. She ordered me to congratulate her on her behalf. I can only leave after drinking the empress dowager's grandson's full moon wine."

Li Wuhua was bored, the other party seemed to make it clear that she would not leave until she saw Hai Ruyue. On the day of the full moon wine, Hai Ruyue would definitely bring the child out to meet guests. The request cannot be refused, and it is hard to rush now.

He could only smile and said: "Come here, send Eunuch Zhao to the Liufang Pavilion, so that he can be resettled."

Immediately someone stepped forward and extended his hand to ask, "Please!"

Zhao Sen stared at Li Wuhua and said slowly: "You are the son-in-law of the Empress Dowager after all, married the Eldest Princess, and haven't seen the Empress Dowager so far, isn't it justified by reason?"

It's embarrassing to say this, Li Wuhua smiled awkwardly, it's okay not to be embarrassed, he is older than the Queen Mother Shang Youlan, and he got a mother who is younger than himself. But who can be blamed, can only blame myself for not being able to control the things in the crotch. He said with a dry smile, "everything is busy. When I have time, I must go to the capital to see you."

In other words, even if he is beaten to death now, he would not dare to go to the capital. He is afraid that he will not be able to come back. If he is really going to be left on behalf of Hai Ruyue to do his filial piety to the Queen Mother in the capital, Wandong Tianfu probably will not be able to He fished it out.

Zhao Sen didn't say much, he turned around with a flick of his cloak, and led the others away. Someone from here ran to the front to lead the way.

Watching them go, Li Wuhua breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Sen's arrival put a lot of pressure on him.

He turned around and recruited his disciples to verify the identities of all the people in Zhao Sen's entourage, so as to prevent any special masters from being hidden.

Afterwards, he signaled to the disciple holding the gift box to check the contents of the box carefully...

In the backyard, in a room with closed doors and windows, Hai Ruyue, with her hair hanging down her shoulders, sat beside the cradle with her bare face.

With the care of the monks from Wandong Tianfu, and Li Wuhua spared no effort in panacea, her body recovered quickly after giving birth.

Looking at the sleeping baby in the cradle, Hai Ruyue was in a daze, thinking of her son who was taken away by the ghost doctor, and she didn't know what was going on now.

Around the cradle, several servant girls stood and accompanied them.

The door opened, and Li Wuhua came in, holding a box in her hand, walked lightly to the cradle, stared at the sleeping baby for a while, with an unusual kindness on her face.

The world of practice is ups and downs, and many things in the future are unclear to anyone.

When I was young, I couldn't even take care of myself for the sake of superiority, so I didn't want to drag my family and I didn't want to have that burden.

When I really got the position, I got older, the conditions were not suitable, and I saw through many things, and I didn't plan to start a family.

The previous Hai Ruyue was famous, so it was impossible for him to marry Hai Ruyue. It was just for fun, but also to help Wandong Tianfu control this place. He never thought that he would really be with Hai Ruyue. However, the appearance of this little guy, after all, It touched the softness in his heart.

For the sake of the mother and the son, he put up his old face this time and knelt down in front of the sect master to beg. Regardless of Hai Ruyue's reputation, if she really married Hai Ruyue, she would lose her old face in Wandong Tianfu, and set a very bad example as an elder.

Whenever he sees the little guy in the cradle, he feels a little uneasy. He is getting old, if he is gone, who can keep the mother and child safe?

His original ideas gradually wavered, and he even thought that while he was still able to speak in Wandong Tianfu, he would take good care of the mother and child, and let the mother and child withdraw from this interest dispute. What is better than living a stable life?

But he knows that he has been involved in this vortex and has no way out. First of all, Wandong Tianfu will not agree. Wandong Tianfu promised him to marry Hai Ruyue in order to better control Jinzhou. What he said before is good, now Want to go back on your little days, what are you kidding?

He has no way out. Ever since he had this child, he has experienced what it means to have a child when he is old. A kind of cherishment that young people feel that youth is long and they don’t understand. It is an inexplicable worry about the future.

It turns out that it is very easy to control whether I am safe or not, but now there is really a burden, a concern that I can't let go, and someone who has to think about it.

Xiao Er, serve durian...
