In the forest outside of Nanzhou's Prefecture City, a bird landed, and two birds flew into the city. Niu Youdao waited outside the city.
After sending Meng Shanming off safely, the two birds flew out of the city and landed in the forest outside the city.
"You guys go back first." Niu Youdao waved his hand. Other than Guan Fangyi, the others flew away on their birds.
"Let's go!" Niu Youdao turned around and called out to Guan Fangyi. The two of them flew away on their birds.
Looking left and right, they realized that they were going in the wrong direction. Guan Fangyi had no idea what he was doing. He said he was here to send Meng Shanming off, but he didn't even show up in the city. Now, he was acting strangely. Guan Fangyi couldn't help but ask, "Daoye, where are we going?"
Niu Youdao replied calmly, "The capital!"
"Ah!" Just like Yuan Gang, Guan Fangyi lost her composure. "Are you crazy? Shang Jianxiong can't wait to kill you, and you still dare to send yourself into the wolf's mouth? Even if you want to die, you don't have to do this, right?"
Niu Youdao replied, "You're overthinking it. Nothing will happen."
"Of course not. Why did you drag me along if there's nothing? All these years, seeing how many talismans I have, you've been ordering me around like your bodyguard. Do you think I don't know? "Guan Fangyi sneered and asked," You've arranged people to protect you in the capital? "
Niu Youdao replied, "No. The fewer people who know about this, the better. How can I make a big deal out of it?"
Guan Fangyi's eyes widened in disbelief. "Daoye, don't tell me it's just the two of us going to the capital. Are you for real? You must be tired of living. I still want to live for a few more years."
Niu Youdao replied, "Of course it's true. Are you going or not? If you really don't want to go, you can still catch up with them. You can go back with them. "
The two of them were riding on the Crimson Hunting Eagle, which could easily catch up to the two Black Jade Condors that had just left.
Guan Fangyi was afraid of danger and wanted to go back, but some things had already become a habit. If Niu Youdao really left her behind and did not bring her along, she would feel uncomfortable and even unhappy. She curled her lips and coldly snorted, "There must be something fishy going on. I want to see what you're up to."
Niu Youdao smiled faintly …
Looking from the sky, the vastness of Yan Jin was astonishing.
The Crimson Hunting Eagle dived into the depths of the mountain. The two disguised men were none other than Niu Youdao and Guan Fangyi. Guan Fangyi was also dressed as a man.
Niu Youdao stared at her full chest and raised his chin: "If you do this, people will know that you are a woman. Tie up your chest."
Guan Fangyi snapped: "What am I supposed to do with you staring at me like that? Am I supposed to take off my clothes in front of you?" She looked left and right for a while and found a place in the mountain. "Wait, I'll go tidy up." He sounded like a man, but he spoke with a woman's voice. It was weird.
Niu Youdao: "There's no need to hide, I won't take advantage of you. Take your time and tidy up, I'll be back soon."
Guan Fangyi was stunned: "What do you mean? You want to leave me here alone?"
Niu Youdao: "If you're not here, who's going to look after the mount?"
Guan Fangyi opened her mouth and scolded: "Bastard, don't tell me you called me here to help you look after the mount? The flourishing capital is right in front of you, and you're asking me to guard the mountain forest? "
"It's too conspicuous to bring the mount into the city. I'm not asking you to look after the mount, I'm asking you to be in charge of receiving it."
"Bullsh * t, you're the only one who knows how to talk. You're asking me to look after the mount in the end."
"Matchmaker, you're the number one beauty in the world. Why are you always spouting vulgarities? It's an insult to your culture."
"Don't give me that."
"Who's to blame? Can you hide the fragrance on your body in such a short time? Who doesn't know that you're a woman the moment you enter the city? I told you to put less incense on your body, but you didn't listen! "
"I …"
"If you don't want us to die here, then stay here obediently." Niu Youdao said and turned to leave.
Guan Fangyi stomped her feet angrily and suddenly shouted: "Wait."
Niu Youdao walked towards the edge of the mountain and had no intention of turning back. Guan Fangyi moved in a flash and stopped him. She used her foot to kick the sword that he was leaning on the ground: "Sword, you're not going to enter the city with a sword like this, are you? Everyone who knows you knows about this signature move of yours. If you enter the city like this, I'm afraid you'll be discovered the moment you enter. "
Niu Youdao looked down and found that it was really hard to change a habit. He slowly tied the sword to his waist: "I don't need you to remind me, I'll change when I get back."
Guan Fangyi looked back at the sunset and asked: "It's already so late, how long do you want me to wait?"
Niu Youdao: "I'll come out later."
Guan Fangyi asked: "When is later? Once the sky turns dark, the four city gates will be closed. Without a military order, the city gates won't be opened easily. Are you going to fly out of the city by force? Don't blame me for not reminding you if you provoke the cultivators guarding the city. "
Niu Youdao: "You're thinking too much. If I can't even deal with such a small matter, I don't need to be in the society anymore."
Guan Fangyi took out a Sky Sword Talisman from her sleeve and handed it to him: "Take it."
Niu Youdao looked around. "You should keep it with you to protect yourself."
"I'm fine. If anything happens, I'll immediately fly to the sky on the Red Hunting Eagle."
"In any case, you're the world's most beautiful woman. It'll be troublesome if you encounter a pervert. You better keep it for yourself."
"I say, Daoye, what are you doing in the capital?"
"I'll tell you when it's time." Niu Youdao turned around and left, still refusing to take her Sky Sword Talisman.
Guan Fangyi shouted, "Come back quickly. This old lady is afraid of the dark. Don't let this old lady wait for too long."
With his back facing her, Niu Youdao waved his hand and flew away.
Leaving the forest, he entered the plains and went all the way out of the city. Under the watchful eyes of the city gate guards, he entered the city as if nothing had happened.
Walking on the streets and looking at the bustling capital, he didn't feel that the Yan State was in the midst of war. The restaurants and teahouses were noisy, and the singing and dancing of the orioles and swallows were noisy. Everyone did what they needed to do. Those who wanted to live a luxurious life continued to live a luxurious life, and those who didn't have enough to eat were still begging on the streets.
Passing by a jewelry shop, he was attracted by the extravagant shouts of the shop assistant. Remembering that Guan Fangyi had been waiting for a long time, he went in. He wanted to bring her a gift of jewelry as a way to shut her up.
Seeing that he didn't look like a poor man, the shop assistant immediately led him in. The shopkeeper personally came out to introduce him.
A golden hairpin caught Niu Youdao's eye. The shopkeeper immediately praised him for his good taste and gave it to him.
Niu Youdao took a look at it and asked, "How much is it?"
The shopkeeper put his two fingers together, "Ten gold coins will do. You can't find such a good price on the whole street."
The golden hairpin was placed on the counter. Niu Youdao reached into his sleeve and felt it was empty. He was speechless. Then he remembered that he usually didn't carry any money with him and had always been clean. He couldn't help but blame Guan Fangyi for not giving him any money when she saw him going out alone. He then asked the shopkeeper, "Can I buy on credit? I'll pay you double later. "
The smile on the shopkeeper's face froze. He looked at him up and down and took back the golden hairpin. He shook his head and said, "We don't buy on credit."
Niu Youdao had to give up and leave. He could hear the shopkeeper and the shop assistant whispering about how he looked like a decent person and so on.
Although it was his first time in the capital, for people who liked to look at maps, it was not difficult to find a destination with many things in their mind …
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, a servant ran into the door and handed a box to the waiting housekeeper, Fan Zhuan.
Fan Zhuan opened the box and looked at the golden hairpin lying inside. He seemed a little puzzled and waved his hand to dismiss the servant.
At this time, the carriage that accompanied the guards outside the door stopped. Gao Jiancheng had returned. Fan Zhuan hurried to welcome him.
The master and servant entered. Fan Zhuan looked at the dark sky and asked, "Master, why did you come back so late?"
Gao Jiancheng sighed, "Why else? Another reinforcement army was defeated. His Majesty is angry."
Fan Zhuan looked around and whispered, "Master, there is a distinguished guest waiting for you in your study."
Gao Jiancheng was a little surprised. His study was not a place that anyone could enter. The housekeeper must know this. He asked, "Who is it?"
Fan Zhuan whispered, "Niu Youdao!"
"He …" Gao Jiancheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Niu Youdao dared to come to the capital. He asked, "How many people came?"
Fan Zhuan, "Only him."
Gao Jiancheng narrowed his eyes, "He is brave. At this time … I am afraid he came because of the war." He sighed slightly. He was afraid that Niu Youdao would come to find him for trouble.
But he had no choice. His son was in the hands of Niu Youdao. He lied to the imperial court that his son was dead. If he really annoyed Niu Youdao and showed his son to the public, the Gao family would be finished. He asked again, "Did anyone see him?"
"Master, rest assured. He came in disguise. We will arrange some people to go in and out. Nothing will happen." Fan Zhuan comforted him.
Gao Jiancheng raised his hand. The master and servant went to the study. On the way, he saw the box in Fan Zhuan's hand. It looked like a gift box. He asked again, "Who sent the gift?"
"Uh … It's not a gift. That person asked this old servant to buy it for him."
"What is it?"
"It's just a worthless golden hairpin." In Fan Zhuan's eyes, an item worth 10 gold coins was naturally not something valuable. Normally, when people gave gifts that were worth 10 gold coins, they wouldn't be able to take it out.
"Golden hairpin?"
Fan Zhuan opened the box and showed it to him. It was indeed a woman's golden hairpin.
Gao Jiancheng took it out and looked at it. He didn't see anything special. He was a little puzzled and suspicious.
It was not easy for people like him to think things in a simple way. Instead, he was thinking that Niu Youdao was not short of money. It was not worthwhile for him to take advantage of others. Why did he ask the Gao family to buy a golden hairpin for him?
He thought too much. He didn't know that Niu Youdao just didn't bring money with him.
The master and servant came to the study. Outside the door, Gao Jiancheng deliberately tidied up his clothes before pushing the door open and entering.
In the study, behind the screen, Niu Youdao had taken off his mask and was sitting in Gao Jiancheng's seat. He was looking through some official documents that Gao Jiancheng usually reviewed.
"Oh!" Seeing the person who accompanied Fan Zhuan in, Niu Youdao stood up and said with a smile, "You must be the Prime Minister."
Fan Zhuan hurriedly introduced him to them.
Gao Jiancheng immediately cupped his hands and saluted. "Greetings, Daoye." As the Premier, he could bow at will. He didn't have any self-respect at all.
"I dare not." Niu Youdao hurriedly went around the table and held him up with both hands.
