Wei Chu, who was at the side, was bewildered by every word.
Haoqi's expression was ugly, and his eyes were filled with fear and unease.
The meaning of the Vast Cloud Painting, as well as the oral edict, was to remind him how to be the eldest prince. However, what he heard was his father's extreme dissatisfaction and anger towards him. It was the moon that gave birth to demons and monsters, and the eagle that crawled on the ground …
The eunuch who had finished announcing the edict saw that he did not respond for a long time and reminded him, "Prince, the oral edict has been conveyed."
"Oh!" Haoqi came back to his senses. "Yes, Your Majesty!"
After sending off the eunuch, Haoqi's face gradually turned gloomy, mixed with a trace of grief and indignation. He stared at Wei Chu and said fiercely, "It's all your fault! So what if you went to see Niu Youdao? How could Father be so sure that you went to inquire about Bu Xun and Princess Yu so quickly? Didn't you warn Niu Youdao? "
Wei Chu hurriedly explained, "Prince, I did warn Niu Youdao, and he agreed. He said that he did not dare to go against the Prince."
Haoqi asked, "Then which part of the information was leaked? Fufang Garden? "
Wei Chu shook his head. "Fufang Garden is unlikely. When I discussed this with Linghu Qiu, we were in a separate secret chamber. Our people were guarding outside, and outsiders could not hear our conversation. There are only a few people who know about this."
"In the palace, there are only a few people who can pass on a message to Father in such a short time. Who else can make Father believe it? Fufang Garden is not a problem. The only person who can directly expose this matter to Father in such a short time is Niu Youdao, who has a relationship with Bu Xun. " Haoqi said hatefully, "I knew that Niu Youdao, that scoundrel, was hiding something from me. As expected, he did not take me seriously. This scoundrel must be in cahoots with Second Prince. That's why he could not wait to hit me when I was down! Scoundrel, you have gone too far. Do you really think that I do not dare to touch you? "
Wei Chu kept quiet. He wasn't sure if Niu Youdao was the one who leaked the secret.
Haoqi suddenly stared at him. "You're just a little cultivator from the Yan Clan. How dare you come to Qi Kingdom and act wildly against me … Think of a way to get rid of him!"
Wei Chu was shocked and immediately advised, "Prince, please reconsider. Niu Youdao is obviously related to Niu Youdao. If something happens to Niu Youdao in the capital, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to escape the investigation of the administrative station!"
Haoqi said, "You can't do this well, and you can't do that well. Tell me, what's the point of this king raising you?"
Wei Chu knew this man's temperament very well; he hastily said, "Prince, what I mean is, this time Niu Youdao cannot possibly stay in the capital and not leave. It won't be too late to make our move after he leaves the capital. Niu Youdao has offended so many people. As long as we do it discreetly, who will know who killed him? As long as we don't leave any evidence behind, no one will dare to say that it was Prince who did it. I'm also thinking for Prince's sake. We can't give King of Jade another chance to kick us when we're down. "
Haoqi's face tensed up. "Don't cause trouble for me again!"
Wei Chu immediately promised, "Don't worry, Prince. I will definitely kill this scoundrel for Prince!"
To Niu Youdao, the prosperity of the capital was like wandering in an ancient painting.
After being in Qi Capital for so long, this was the first time Niu Youdao took a stroll like this. Without the group of cultivators pestering him, he felt much more at ease.
As for the warhorse, he had already given up on it. He had already experienced the dangers of this place. With so many people watching over him, there was an 80% to 90% chance that he would die. It was too dangerous.
Moreover, he already had two trump cards in his hands. One was the token given by Bu Xun, and the other was the island.
More importantly, he knew that he was being watched by the people of Waning Moon Pavilion. This poisonous snake hiding behind the scenes would bite him at any time.
He knew that with his strength and the influence he had, he couldn't compete with several parties at the same time.
Passing by the Ming Lake, Niu Youdao only glanced at the tofu restaurant.
The group finally arrived at Fufang Garden.
In the garden, in an exquisite room, Guan Fangyi sat in front of a dressing table. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed from time to time. Her fingers touched the deepening wrinkles at the corner of her eyes.
The old gatekeeper knocked on the door and entered to report.
Guan Fangyi was shocked. She turned around and asked, "Linghu Qiu is back again? And that Niu Youdao is here too?"
The old gatekeeper said, "That person called himself Niu Youdao. I don't know him."
After thinking for a while, Guan Fangyi said, "Just say that I'm not here. I went out."
"Yes!" The old gatekeeper quickly left.
She put down her comb and stood up. She paced back and forth in the room. The arrival of Niu Youdao made her a little uneasy.
She wasn't afraid of Niu Youdao and Linghu Qiu, but she was afraid of Bu Xun, who was involved with Niu Youdao. To be more precise, she was afraid of the forces in the cultivation world behind Bu Xun.
She had eavesdropped on the secret conversation between Linghu Qiu and Wei Chu, which had been caught by the school administrative station. The person behind the school administrative station was Bu Xun. Did Niu Youdao find out something from Bu Xun?
Didn't Wei Chu go to see Niu Youdao? Did Wei Chu also find out? Did he know that she had betrayed him?
To some extent, in the capital, Bu Xun was not scary as long as he abided by the rules. Bu Xun was the person who maintained the capital's rules behind the scenes.
She had been in the capital for so many years that she knew who she should not provoke. The person in the Jin Wangfu was definitely one of them. He was a person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Once he knew that she had betrayed him, he would not let her go!
She didn't want to and didn't dare to meet Niu Youdao for fear of being misunderstood by the person in the Jin Wangfu.
After straightening out her thoughts, Guan Fangyi quickly went out and said to her subordinates, "Let's go to the city."
After the subordinates got into the carriage, Guan Fangyi poked her head out of the carriage and said, "Use the side door!"
The old gatekeeper came to the front gate of the garden. He cupped his hands and said to Niu Youdao, "Sorry to keep you waiting. Unfortunately, the owner has gone to the city to play and is not in the garden."
Niu Youdao looked at the garden and asked suspiciously, "You went in to report, and this is the result?"
The old man smiled and said, "Please don't misunderstand. The owner usually goes in and out through the side door. It's normal that I didn't know she suddenly left. If she has any business, it's the same to look for other people in the garden."
Niu Youdao said, "My business can only be with her. Give me a definite answer, when will she come back?"
The old man shook his head and said, "Everyone knows that the owner is a playful person. It's hard to confirm."
"Alright, it's the same to talk to other people!" Niu Youdao threw out these words and directly barged into the garden.
The old man was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand to beckon someone to lead the way.
They entered the garden and looked around. The elegant landscape of the garden was pleasing to the eye. Niu Youdao praised, "This matchmaker is a person who knows how to enjoy life."
Linghu Qiu smiled. If she didn't want to enjoy life, why would she stay in the capital?
They sat down in the guest hall and someone served them tea.
After a while, a man came in and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting. Old rules, don't ask where you came from, don't ask about right or wrong. What do you want to buy or sell?"
Niu Youdao said, "I want to buy and talk to the matchmaker!"
Linghu Qiu and Hong Xiu looked at each other.
The man was stunned and then replied, "The owner is not here. She went out to play."
Niu Youdao said, "It's okay. I'll wait here for her to come back."
The man frowned, "Friend, it's not appropriate for you to do this."
Niu Youdao said, "I'll wait here until she comes back." His attitude was very firm and there was no room for negotiation.
The man wanted to say something but stopped. He knew that Guan Fangyi ran away to avoid this person, so he didn't dare to act rashly and finally went out with a sullen face.
After that, no one served them tea and no one greeted them. They just let them wait here. From time to time, people strolled outside and looked at them.
The sky was getting dark, but Guan Fangyi still hadn't come back and no one served food.
Linghu Qiu and Hong Xiu, who were waiting impatiently, strolled in the courtyard outside.
"Sir, this guy is waiting for the matchmaker. What does he want?" Hong Xiu asked in a low voice.
Linghu Qiu, who was admiring the night sky with his hands behind his back, snorted, "He said he likes Guan Fangyi."
"Ah!" Hong Xiu was stunned. She wanted to say Guan Fangyi's age but thought that Niu Youdao lived with Black Peony all the way and often thought about the sisters. She couldn't help but spit, "Pervert!"
"No one can compare with this brother's appetite." Linghu Qiu shook his head and laughed.
After midnight, Niu Youdao came out of the hall and came to the pavilion where the master and servant were sitting. The pavilion was full of moonlight.
Hong Xiu stood up. Linghu Qiu turned his head and sighed with one arm supporting his head, "Brother, come another day. Why are you so persistent?"
Niu Youdao asked, "It's so late. Does this woman always stay out at night?"
Linghu Qiu said, "It's impossible for ordinary women. It's normal for her to do this."
Niu Youdao said, "Aren't you old friends with her? It's fine if she doesn't give me face. But do you think it's normal to let you wait like this without replying? "
Linghu Qiu was stunned. He put down his arm and slowly stood up. He frowned and felt that something was wrong.
Niu Youdao asked again, "Are you sure she doesn't know about your conversation with Wei Chu yesterday?"
Linghu Qiu was suspicious and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Niu Youdao didn't answer. He looked at him and waited for his reply.
Linghu Qiu thought for a while and replied, "She should not know. At that time, the conversation was in a single room and Wei Chu's men were watching outside. Wei Chu would be eager to keep it a secret and would not tell her about it. "
Niu Youdao slowly turned around and faced the outside. He suddenly shouted, "Come in!"
A man quickly came in from the darkness. He stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying, "Three distinguished guests, are you leaving? I'll see you off! "
Niu Youdao sneered and said, "Why are you leaving? Tell Guan Fangyi that I don't care where she is looking for pleasure. She has to get up from a pile of men. I'll wait for her for another two hours. If she doesn't show up by then, I guarantee that Fufang Garden will disappear from the capital before dawn! "
Linghu Qiu and Hong Xiu looked at each other. They didn't know what he was going to do. They found that he was really arrogant. What right did he have to make Fufang Garden disappear from the capital? How dare he make a move in the capital?
The man's lips twitched. He was told not to fight with Niu Youdao. If he wanted to wait, let him wait until he got impatient and left.
