"Because he is keeping a low profile!" Niu Youdao stood up and turned to walk under the eaves towards the study room.
Guan Fangyi was a little puzzled and stood up as well, "Keeping a low profile does have its benefits but he will not stir up any trouble other than those assigned by the Imperial Court. There is no point in looking for him."
"There are only a few possibilities for keeping a low profile: limited ability, incompetence, no choice but to keep a low profile; when the time is not right, he will assess the situation and keep a low profile to protect himself; he is disgusted with disputes and does not like to fight and scheme, he is really keeping a low profile." Niu Youdao paced around and muttered to himself for a while before asking again, "Do you think that this King of England is so incompetent that he needs to keep a low profile? If he is really so incompetent, why would the Imperial Court send him the usual tasks and not be afraid that he will mess it up? According to what you said, I have never heard of him creating any flashy tasks and have never heard of him messing up anything. Do you think it is easy to maintain such mediocrity? "
Guan Fangyi understood his meaning, "You are saying that the King of England is pretending to be low profile but how do you know that he is not really keeping a low profile?"
Niu Youdao simply said, "As a member of the Royal Family, I do not believe that a prince who does not show his true abilities has no ambitions for the throne. I believe that he is assessing the situation and waiting for the right time. Sometimes, not fighting is also a form of fighting!"
Guan Fangyi nodded her head thoughtfully and immediately looked at him from head to toe, "You are so young, how can you have so many devious ideas? Even if you are right, we cannot do anything to him even if he does not want to see you. "
Niu Youdao exhaled and said, "The target has made some movements and they have started to move. I do not have time to waste with that King of England. I must meet him as soon as possible and help me send a letter to him!" As he spoke, he had already entered Guan Fangyi's study room.
Dripping water to grind the ink, Guan Fangyi personally helped him grind the ink to see what he wanted to write.
Niu Youdao, who was standing beside the study table, closed his eyes and was silent for a while. When he opened his eyes, he picked up the brush and dipped it into the ink. He put down the brush and a line of words was written in one breath: The country is so beautiful that countless heroes compete to bow down to it! How can we allow a rat to steal it? The winner is king and the loser is vilified.
"There are so many beauties in the world, attracting countless heroes to bow down to them! There are so many beauties in the world … "Guan Fangyi, who was standing at the side, repeated this sentence over and over again. Her eyes were a little dazed. Her gaze finally fell on Niu Youdao's face as he slowly put down his brush. Her gaze was complicated.
Niu Youdao peeled off the paper, blew the ink dry and gave it to her.
Guan Fangyi held it in her hand and looked at it. She asked tentatively, "He can see you just by writing this?"
Niu Youdao: "Let's give it a try."
Guan Fangyi: "What if he still doesn't want to see me?"
Niu Youdao: "This is Beijing. If I dare to touch him, he won't dare to touch me. Let's find trouble with him immediately!"
When the two of them came out of the study, they bumped into Xu Laoliu.
"Big sister, Daoye!" Xu Laoliu greeted the two of them. In private, he did not avoid addressing Guan Fangyi as Niu Youdao. He also changed the way he addressed Niu Youdao. Ever since he was caught in the act of adultery, the people in Fufang Garden had changed the way they addressed Niu Youdao.
"What's the matter?" Guan Fangyi asked.
Xu Laoliu said, "A group of people from the Heavenly Jade Sect has arrived. They claim to be Daoye's sworn brother, Feng Entai. They want to see Daoye."
Niu Youdao blinked and smiled. "He came back alive."
"You really have a lot of sworn brothers." Guan Fangyi sneered.
Niu Youdao chuckled. "More brothers means more options."
Guan Fangyi sneered. "That's true. A man who even sleeps with his sworn brother's woman is naturally eager to have more brothers."
"Pfft …" Xu Laoliu immediately stifled his laughter.
Niu Youdao's face fell. "I'm talking about how energetic you are. Since when did I sleep with her?"
Guan Fangyi waved her hand at Xu Laoliu. "Let them in!"
Not long after, Feng Entai led a group of people in.
When the two brothers met again, regardless of whether they were truly happy or not, they were happy on the surface.
Seeing that Feng Entai's face was pale and the Heavenly Jade Sect disciples who came with him were obviously injured, Niu Youdao could not help but ask, "Big Brother, are you injured?"
Feng Entai sighed. "Just a small injury! We met a group of people with mental problems. We've already thrown the item to them, but they still chased us relentlessly. The others thought that the item was in our hands and chased after us! Let's not talk about it anymore. "
He waved his hand with a bitter expression.
His gaze fell on Guan Fangyi. Obviously, he had seen her before. He smiled again. "Qi Capital's Matchmaker. Should I address you as sister-in-law?"
Since he was able to address her as sister-in-law, it was clear that he already knew about the rumors here.
Niu Youdao's expression twitched.
Guan Fangyi fanned herself and raised her chin at Niu Youdao. She smiled and said, "Big Brother Feng, you have to ask him if he's willing."
Feng Entai immediately asked Niu Youdao, "What's the situation?"
"Gossip is a fearful thing. Don't believe everything!" Niu Youdao brushed it off with a single sentence. Truth and falsehood were matters of life and death. It was not convenient for him to tell them the truth at the moment, so he told them to go back and rest first.
Feng Entai had no intention of leaving. He asked, "Is there no place for us to stay here?"
Guan Fangyi did not utter a word. She tilted her head to the side and pretended not to understand.
Niu Youdao said, "Are there not many places to stay outside? This isn't my home. "
Feng Entai immediately pulled his arm and pulled him to the side to talk. "Don't think that I don't know anything just because I've just returned. I've heard about what happened between you and Matchmaker. In such a huge Fufang Garden, any courtyard is enough for us. Let me tell you, the Sect Leader has spoken. With regards to the warhorses, from now on, all of us will listen to your orders. "
This time, he had really angered Peng Youzai. The trouble that he had thrown out was picked up by this junior brother of his own accord, causing a bunch of disciples to die. Peng Youzai no longer had confidence in him. However, those who could make decisions were not willing to come here. Instead, they all spoke up for Feng Entai and asked him to give him another chance.
The reason why they were not willing to come was very simple. The chances of success were too small. If they failed, they would lose face and their prestige in the sect would be swept to the ground. With the sect rules in place, they might even be punished. Unless it was absolutely necessary, no one was willing to take on this hot potato.
On the other hand, Niu Youdao had encountered danger after danger in Qi Capital. He had survived step by step and lived a good life in Qi Capital. He even plucked Qi Capital's Matchmaker.
Hence, Peng Youzai instructed Feng Entai to stick close to Niu Youdao and listen to Niu Youdao's commands.
It could be considered as a last resort. If Niu Youdao really had the ability to get the warhorses back, it would naturally be the best. If he couldn't, who would be responsible for the failure of the mission when all the Heavenly Jade Sect's disciples were under his command? Furthermore, he wanted a share of the profits from the drinks?
When both sides had reason to reason with each other, it was still up to the one with the bigger fist to call the shots!
In short, Heavenly Jade Sect had to protect one of the two!
Peng Youzai believed that Niu Youdao would not dare to mess around with the Heavenly Jade Sect's disciples unless he didn't want to return to Green Mountain County.
Niu Youdao raised his eyebrows. "Your Heavenly Jade Sect's disciples will listen to my orders? Are you serious? "
Feng Entai solemnly replied, "Absolutely not! Old Third, we will do whatever you say … Of course, you can't force us if we can't do it! "
Niu Youdao chuckled coldly. He had more or less guessed the Heavenly Jade Sect's intentions.
However, there was no other way. The Heavenly Jade Sect was the one who had the final say in Green Mountain County. They had no choice but to agree. In the end, Guan Fangyi gave a courtyard for the Heavenly Jade Sect's disciples to stay in.
Just as Feng Entai left, Xu Laoliu came and reported, "Daoye, Linghu Qiu is back. Hong Xiu and Hong Fu are also here. Shall we let them in?" He looked at Guan Fangyi.
Guan Fangyi had a mocking expression on her face. Before she could say anything, Niu Youdao already said, "Just say that Hong Niang is not happy and won't let them in!"
Seeing that Guan Fangyi had no objection, Xu Laoliu turned around and left.
Guan Fangyi said in a strange tone, "Why won't you let them in? Are you afraid that Linghu Qiu will settle the score with you?"
Niu Youdao said, "I don't know if Waning Moon Pavilion has made up their mind to deal with Wei Chu. Why should I see him? Am I supposed to give him a chance to make a move?"
Guan Fangyi was silent for a moment and asked, "What if Waning Moon Pavilion has made up their mind?"
Niu Youdao asked, "Can you help me estimate how much it will cost to hire someone to kill Wei Chu?"
Guan Fangyi thought for a moment and said, "It will cost a lot! At least a million gold coins. With Wei Chu's status and background, it is possible that he will ask for several million! "
Niu Youdao spread out his hands and said, "I don't even have money for food now. You have to pay for it. If he asks for an exorbitant price, how can I give him that much money?"
"…" Guan Fangyi was stunned.
After a while, Xu Laoliu came to report again, "Linghu Qiu has sent a message. He said that Daoye has done what you wanted him to do and wants to talk to you in person."
Niu Youdao said, "Tell him that under my plea, Hong Niang only agreed to let him in. Hong Xiu and Hong Fu can't!"
"I have become a shield for your romantic debt!" Guan Fangyi said disdainfully. She didn't say anything, so Xu Laoliu left again.
After a while, Linghu Qiu arrived quickly.
When he saw Niu Youdao, he angrily said, "Third Brother, what do you mean by this? How dare you molest Hong Xiu and Hong Fu when I am not here! "
Niu Youdao quickly waved his hand and said, "There is no such thing!"
Linghu Qiu said angrily, "Then why did you chase them out?"
Guan Fangyi snorted and said, "I was the one who chased them out! Those two shameless bitches seduced my man. Why should I keep them? "
"Seduce who? Him? " Linghu Qiu pointed at Niu Youdao, who had an awkward expression on his face, and asked Niu Youdao in reply, "Third Brother, I don't need to say more about your intentions towards Hong Xiu and Hong Fu, right? Touch your conscience and tell me, do Hong Xiu and Hong Fu need to seduce you? "
Niu Youdao laughed dryly and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it is all a misunderstanding."
Guan Fangyi was furious. She pointed at Niu Youdao's nose and scolded, "Misunderstanding my ass! You put your hand under their clothes and took off their pants. Do you think I am blind? "
Linghu Qiu's face turned green when he heard that Hong Xiu's pants were taken off. Unexpectedly, Guan Fangyi turned around and pointed at his nose and scolded, "If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. To be able to raise such two bitches, you are not a good person either. How dare you make a fuss here? Scram! I don't welcome you here! "
Linghu Qiu pointed at Niu Youdao and said, "You must give me an explanation for what happened today!"
"I did not do anything. What explanation?" Niu Youdao would not admit it even if he was beaten to death.
Everyone had their own reasons, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
