Huang Dou and Lin Hu were taken aback. They nodded thoughtfully.
Huang Dou suddenly laughed. "Young Master, he set the restaurant on fire and created this to target you. It seems like he was angered by Young Master's confession of love to Tang Yi."
Shao Pingbo said, "You've underestimated him. If he really wanted to take Tang Yi away, he would have a way to do so. But he abandoned Tang Yi and ran away. It's clear that he has no feelings for Tang Yi. The way the Shanghai Sect treats him might be the reason. It's said that heroes have a weakness for the charms of a beautiful woman. Moreover, they are husband and wife. No one is blind to Tang Yi's beauty. Even though he knew that I was pestering Tang Yi, he abandoned Tang Yi and ran away. He didn't bother Tang Yi at all. This kind of person is very rational and cold-blooded. He's very dangerous! "
He stood up slowly. "He's so capable at such a young age. He'll become a great threat in the future. We can't let him live!"
Lin Hu said, "The people going to the capital are already on their way."
Shao Pingbo said, "That's what I was about to say. Let's call back the people going to the capital. His identity is fake. Do you expect him to do what he says?"
The two thought about it and nodded.
Huang Dou said, "If Young Master wants to get rid of him, we have to find him first. Our forces are very weak outside the Northern Province. The world is so big. If we don't know his route or where he went, it'll be very difficult to find him."
"What is he doing in Korea?" Shao Pingbo suddenly asked. He seemed to be asking himself. He fell into deep thought and paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back.
Huang Dou and Lin Hu looked at each other. This was a difficult question. It was their first time meeting that guy and they didn't know each other well. Who knew what he was doing in Korea?
After a moment of silence, Shao Pingbo said Slowly, "There's a place he might go, but I can't be sure."
Huang Dou and Lin Hu asked in unison, "Where?"
Shao Pingbo paused and turned around. "I asked him what he was doing in the capital for Zhuge Xun. Do you remember what he said?"
Both of them looked at each other. Didn't they say that Niu Youdao wouldn't be going to Beijing? How did it get involved with Zhuge Xun's mission now?
However, this young master was extraordinarily intelligent and could not be compared to an ordinary person. The two of them had always been deeply impressed by him, so Huang Dou consciously followed his train of thought and replied, "I remember that it's because of the incident at the relay station. I need to report the details to the capital on behalf of Zhuge Xun."
Shao Pingbo turned around and walked back, asking, "You should know what happened at the relay station, right?"
Lin Hu nodded. "Eldest Young Master has mentioned it in the capital. The Northern Province has also received news from the capital that there are Yan's spies in the relay station. The Northern State could not tolerate the existence of Yan spies. Naturally, they had to cooperate with the imperial court to clean them up. It is said that the six states are trying to clean up Yan's spies in the relay stations. It looks peaceful on the surface, but in fact, it is not a small matter. It should have caused a lot of damage to Yan's intelligence agency. "
Shao Pingbo stood in front of the two of them. "He said that the news was sent to Han by Zhuge Xun after he received it from Zhao. Do you think he is lying to me?"
It was not difficult to find the answer if one followed his train of thought. Lin Hu said, "I don't think so. He already knew Eldest Young Master's identity at that time. Since he pretended to be Zhuge Xun's man, he wouldn't dare to lie. If Eldest Young Master knew about it, wouldn't he be exposed? How could he continue pretending? Naturally, he would have to say something reliable."
Shao Pingbo spread his hands. "The crux of the problem is that even I don't know that the news was sent by Zhuge Xun from Zhao to the capital of Han … It's understandable. It's normal for intelligence to be kept secret, but how did Niu Youdao know about it? I can understand that he knew about the arrest at the relay station, but how did he know that it was Zhuge Xun who sent the news? Wouldn't Zhuge Xun know how to keep such confidential information confidential? "
Huang Dou and Lin Hu pondered.
Shao Pingbo raised his hand and pointed. "Let's take a look at the arrest information from the capital. There is a certain degree of accuracy. They were all sent to the relay stations recently. If we follow this timing and link it to Niu Youdao, then this matter will be interesting. Niu Youdao, Yan's secret agent, and the timing of the assassination, there is a connection between the three! "
Lin Hu came to a realization and blurted out, "Niu Youdao killed the Yan envoy and angered the imperial court of the Yan Kingdom. The imperial court of the Yan Kingdom has mobilized people to set up spies at the various relay stations to look for him and deal with him!"
Shao Pingbo nodded. "Let's see if he knows about Zhuge Xun's secret report."
Huang Dou said, "It's possible that he contacted Zhuge Xun!"
Shao Pingbo said, "I'm afraid he didn't just contact Zhuge Xun. He probably contacted the envoys from other countries as well. This is the reason why all the countries acted at the same time. When he killed the Yan envoy, the envoys from all the other countries were basically there. They knew the envoys and it was not difficult to find them and pass the news. Also, all the countries have their own agendas. No matter which country knows this news, they will not inform the other countries unless it is necessary. They can't wait to see other countries in trouble. It is a problem for all the countries to act at the same time. "
Lin Hu laughed. "Then it is more likely that Niu Youdao did it. Yan targeted him, so it is normal for him to retaliate!"
Shao Pingbo turned around and walked with his hands behind his back. He sighed softly. "With a backhand strike, he tore apart Yan's net. Even Yan suffered a loss in his hands. Do you still dare to look down on him?"
Lin Hu could not laugh anymore. Both of them looked serious. They finally understood why Master Xiao said this person was dangerous!
They also understood why Master Xiao was so afraid of this person. This person's attitude towards them was not good. Looking back at the nursery rhyme, Master Xiao would be in trouble!
Huang Dou hesitated. "Master Xiao, does this have anything to do with his whereabouts?"
Shao Pingbo slowly walked to the main seat and sat down. "Is it not? Knowing that Yan's court is targeting him, where do you think is the safest place for him? "
Huang Dou said, "He can either find a place to hide or go back to Shang Chaozong's side."
Shao Pingbo said, "But he did not do that. Knowing that Yan's court is targeting him, not only did he not hide, he even went so far to Korea. What is he trying to do in Korea?"
Huang Dou and Lin Hu looked at each other speechlessly. This was not easy to guess.
"Risking his life to move forward can only mean that he has something to do! Now that we understand the cause and look at the overall situation, everything can be traced. We are already aware of his capabilities. His appearance in Jinzhou is not a coincidence. Everyone knows what happened next. Shang Chaozong joined forces with Jinzhou and used its power to conquer Qingshan County. So why did he go to Jinzhou? It is very likely that he helped Shang Chaozong to form an alliance with Jinzhou. "
"My father is an old subordinate of King Ning and Shang Jianbo. He has been paying close attention to King Ning's son, Shang Chaozong. I heard from my father that Jinzhou's Hai Ruyue once had a romantic relationship with King Ning. However, King Ning is already dead, so it is too far-fetched to mention the past. This is not enough to convince Hai Ruyue to send troops to support him! This matter involves two countries. Hai Ruyue's actions are risky. She has to think for Jinzhou or she will not be able to control it.
"Logically speaking, Shang Chaozong is so weak that Hai Ruyue will not send troops to support him. So it should be very difficult to convince Hai Ruyue. With Niu Youdao's capabilities, it is not surprising that he appeared in Jinzhou. Reality has proven that something that no one could have imagined has happened. The massive Jin Province has actually allied with the Shang Dynasty of a small county. "
"What made Hai Ruyue agree to send troops? Think about it again. Niu Youdao facilitated the alliance and the Shang Dynasty was about to go to war. Instead of returning to the Shang Dynasty, he risked killing the Yan envoy and ran around outside. He knew that the Yan Imperial Court had made a move, but he still ran to Han. This is not normal!
"This is the sequence of the suspicious points. How did Niu Youdao initiate the alliance? Why did Hai Ruyue agree to send troops? Why did Niu Youdao take the risk to come to Han? In terms of time and distance, the journey was actually very short, and the three points of doubt could only be formed under certain circumstances. So let's implant the unknown conditions and look at the sequence. Niu Youdao initiated the alliance, Hai Ruyue accepted the conditions and sent troops, then Niu Youdao came to Han. Does that mean we have the answer? "
Lin Hu continued, "Niu Youdao came to Han to fulfill the conditions!"
Huang Dou nodded.
Shao Pingbo asked, "What conditions can Hai Ruyue accept to come to Han? What conditions can't be fulfilled by normal people and requires cultivators? Shang Chaozong has cultivators, why did Niu Youdao take the risk to come to Han? It's not like Hai Ruyue doesn't have any cultivators by her side. Is there anything that even Hai Ruyue's cultivators can't do that requires Niu Youdao's assistance? "
"Thinking about this, I remember something. Hai Ruyue's son seems to be suffering from a strange disease. I heard that he inherited it from his father!"
Lin Hu said, "Heavenly Yin destroys meridians!"
Huang Dou said, "Crimson Sun Fruit!"
Both of them blurted out at the same time. Although they said different things, they were pointing to the same thing.
There were many people who paid attention to Hai Ruyue, not because of her beauty, but because her son's illness would determine whether Jinzhou would have a new owner.
Shao Pingbo said, "After putting this incident into context, most of the mysteries seem to be solved. It's very likely that Niu Youdao went to the Great Snow Mountain to ask for the Red Sun Vermilion Fruit from the Ice Pavilion!"
"This …" Huang Dou said doubtfully, "Even with Hai Ruyue's status, she can't get it. What's the use of him going there?"
Shao Pingbo said, "That's why I can't be sure. Without getting the item, why would Hai Ruyue send her troops? Could there be an error in her judgment? Could it be that Niu Youdao is only passing through Han? "
Lin Hu said, "Regardless of whether he is or not, since there is such a possibility and Young Master wants to get rid of him, we can just send our men."
Shao Pingbo shook his head. "I have other plans for this. Now, I have something to trouble the two of you. Both of you witnessed the nursery rhyme incident with your own eyes. I hope the two of you can report this to the Great Zen Mountain."
"No problem!" Huang Dou and Lin Hu agreed and looked at each other. They knew that the nursery rhyme incident was enough to give this person a headache for a while.
After the two of them left, Shao Pingbo's expression darkened. He tilted his head to look at the steward Shao Sansheng, who had his hands behind his back and remained silent. "Children are disobedient. It's inevitable for them to fall into the water. It's time for the adults to take care of them. Arrange for some people to go to the area where the nursery rhyme is being sung. Create some examples that will cause people to panic and stop the nursery rhyme! "
