The three of them were slightly puzzled. It stands to reason that Feng Lingbo should know about their lack of money, otherwise would they have the audacity to 'borrow' from Feng Ruonan ? It's nothing to pay back the money for a while, and it's okay to make it up in Cangwu County.
Blue Ruoting was puzzled and said: "Feng Lingbo won't delay his business for 10,000 gold coins, right?" His so-called business is known to several people, and he refers to 100,000 Crow will .
None of the three thought that Feng Lingbo could delay the important matter of 100,000 Crow Will for such a trivial matter as 10,000 gold coins , and they all felt that it should be fine for Blue Ruoting to shamelessly mention it.
Niu You Dao hesitated to speak, and it is estimated that someone from the prefecture is waiting to vent their anger over here. Peng Yulan made a harsh remark in public, and it would be too embarrassing to swallow it back. It is not known how much trouble it would cause if it was exposed. However, he couldn't tell Shang Chaozong about the situation where he was blamed then, so he could only kindly remind him: "My lord, men may be generous, but women may not be so easy to talk to. Peng Yulan may want to vent her anger for her daughter. With her in front, it may be difficult to eat without embarrassment and difficult to see Feng Lingbo." He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, this is just my guess. If you think it's okay, it's okay. I didn't rest well last night, so I won't accompany you anymore. I'll go back and sleep for a while." After speaking, he bowed and sent him off, making up his mind not to go.
It doesn't matter to him, it's okay for Chaozong to suffer a little bit and be wronged in this kind of thing , it won't affect the overall situation. In the end , the one who should marry will still marry, and the one who should marry will still marry, anyway, it's not him who loses face.
Seeing that he was about to turn back to the house, Shang Chaozong rushed over, grabbed Niu You Dao 's arm, and said with a smile on his face: " Master Dao , why don't you speak clearly."
This kind of thing, he is actually the most worried about. He may not be afraid of fighting and killing on the battlefield, but when it comes to marriage, it's really the first time. Men can understand the feelings of going to meet the father-in-law and mother-in-law for the first time, and marrying someone's daughter is when he is most insecure. The most important thing is that Niu You Dao caused this mess and he has to bear the blame. Just thinking about it is embarrassing. In this situation, he still has to grit his teeth and go to visit, it's really a sleepless night with tossing and turning.
Now that Niu You Dao sent him another bad signal, he became more and more uneasy.
Niu You Dao turned his head and glanced at his grabbed arm. Yuan Gang also squinted at Shang Chaozong's grasping hand. He wanted to stop him, so he raised his hand slightly and then put it down again.
In the previous life, Yuan Gang would not let people easily act so rudely towards Master Dao , but the current judgment is that Shang Chaozong has no malice.
Shang Chaozong also realized that he had lost his composure, so he quickly let go.
Niu You Dao smiled and said, "I've already made it very clear, and there's nothing big. That's all. However, I still suggest that the prince get the money before going. It's more appropriate to be prepared and speak with confidence, isn't it
Shang Chaozong is speechless, what's the difference between what you said and what you didn't say? With a wry smile, he said, "I really can't get the money out at the moment. If I can get the money out, why is it so difficult?"
Niu You Dao was surprised: "The majestic king of the county has hundreds of troops under his command, how can he be troubled by a mere 10,000 gold coins? Aren't these troops money?"
Shang Chaozong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I can't sell the army?"
Niu You Dao sighed: "People can't be sold, but horses can be sold! These horses can be sold for more than 10,000 gold coins, right?" This is quite true. In this era of war, horses are definitely precious resources, especially war horses, which are not cheap.
"..." Shang Chaozong was speechless, and wanted to ask him, what kind of bad idea is this? Don't say that war horses are the second life of cavalry, and if you sell the horses, why don't you let everyone go to Cangwu County? ? The accompanying luggage is carried by manpower? Or should I ask Feng Lingbo to borrow a horse later? He frowned and said, "Isn't it appropriate to sell war horses?"
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
Niu You Dao rolled his eyes, and said seriously: "Who told you to really sell it? Let some rumors out, saying that Feng Lingbo thinks that the dowry is too short, and the prince wants to sell the horse to make up for the dowry, and then we will bring the horse here. Go out for a walk, won't the matter be resolved?"
Blue Ruoting and Shang Shuqing were slightly stunned upon hearing this, and their eyes immediately lit up to understand his intention. This was to make Feng Lingbo to lose face. Feng Lingbo would naturally send someone to stop the horse sale and would not force this side to pay back the money.
" Master Dao , good idear!" Blue Ruoting cupped his hands in convincing.
Shang Shuqing smiled sweetly under the veil, looking at Niu You Dao 's eyes bursting with radiance. Although it was a trivial matter this time, she witnessed the other party's calm and gentle way of resolving it, and saw the whole picture at a glance, which made her deeply understand Yuan Gang said those words at the beginning, and realized that their brother and sister had indeed met an expert!
Shang Chaozong also understood his intention in a flash. Feng Lingbo would not give the people in his county a bad reputation of being greedy, but he was still a little worried about this kind of thing, "Feng Lingbo is not stupid, how can such an obvious thing , he can't see our intentions, if we do this, won't we be underestimated?"
Niu You Dao shook his head when he heard this: "You didn't harm anyone by doing this. What kind of face is this? Could it be that the prince can't afford to lose this face? Or... the prince cares about Feng Ruonan very much , and he is very nervous to marry her. Is it?" The last words were obviously ridiculed.
Shang Chaozong didn't care about Feng Ruonan , it was true that he was a little nervous, and it was a bit embarrassing to be poked in the center.
Niu You Dao smiled and cupped his hands, no more words, the words have reached this point, he can do whatever he wants, he turned around and went for a stroll in the garden, he hadn't looked carefully at the structure of the forest last night.
After a while, Yuan Gang came quickly behind him, and followed his steps to report: " Master Dao , he has already left, and he should have followed your instructions."
Hearing this, Niu You Dao stopped by the side of a pond, and said slowly with his hands behind his back: "If the marriage is settled , the troubles of Shangqing Sect must be cured. Next is the Song family, our strength is far from that of them, it's a bit tricky!"
Yuan Gang was silent, and sighed in his heart, it turned out that Master Dao had already planned to destroy the Shangqing Sect to avoid future troubles. It seems that Master Dao really has no relationship with that Tang Yi , and he didn't care about that Tang Yi 's life or death at all...
"Ha? I saw it with my own eyes the day before yesterday. A long caravan of betrothal gifts, little?"
" Who is General Feng Ruonan , how can he marry a men so easily? But he forced a county king to the point of selling war horses, how much did the prefect want?"
On the streets of the county city, a group of guards led the horses and walked slowly, while the passers-by watching from both sides pointed and talked.
Inside the prefect's mansion, Feng Lingbo and Peng Yulan, who were sitting in the pavilion talking, were waiting for Shang Chaozong to visit. The butler Longevity came in a hurry and reported the situation outside.
Feng Lingbo turned his head slowly and stared at him, "Selling war horses as a gift? When will this king want him a gift?"
Longevity said softly, "I'm afraid it's about paying back the ten thousand gold coins."
Feng Lingbo's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "If you pay back the money, you will pay back the money, what kind of bride price!"
Peng Yulan's face became tense, she understood something, she gritted her teeth and said, "A group of villains want to renege on their debts!"
Feng Lingbo sneered, "That Blue Ruoting really has a lot of tricks, I'm looking forward to seeing it..." He tilted her head to Longevity , "You go there yourself and tell them that the 10,000 gold coins matter is over. , tell them not to make a fuss, come and see me quickly!"
"Yes!" Longevity walked away.
Peng Yulan, who had a cold face, did not stop her, because she knew in her heart that the people in Guangyi County had a relatively good opinion of her husband. This is the human heart, and it is also one of the foundations of fighting against the imperial court. Fame in this county cannot be bought with 10,000 gold coins. If she force them, they will turn around and sell horses again. She must be disgusting... This time it is her turn to feel aggrieved!
Not long after, Shang Chaozong and his entourage arrived, and the host and guest met in the main hall. Feng Lingbo and Peng Yulan saluted together, "I have met the prince!"
After all, they had not rebelled, and the minimum of rank was still there, but it's only limited to this courtesy. After the ceremony, Shang Chaozong was basically left alone.
"Mr. Lan, I've admired your name for a long time..." Feng Lingbo laughed loudly, and stepped forward to grab Blue Ruoting 's arm, looking very affectionate.
Not pretend to be cordial, but really want to befriend, to some status of people, have their own heart, when cheated angry, after being cheated is reminiscent, not afraid of you cheat people, afraid of you are not capable, this chaotic world of one person's power can not turn the sky, only the group will be able to do great things.
After a few compliments from each other, Feng Lingbo also playfully flirted: "Mr. Lan, you are a little unethical ah! This has not yet met, but even on me to use tactics, today you have to be punished three cups!"
"Shy in the bag, I have to, shame shame shame!"
And Peng Yulan pulled Shang Shuqing enthusiastic conversation, quite a taste of helping his daughter to deal with his sister-in-law first, only Shang Chaozong was left on the side, no one cared, holding the tea slowly tasting.
When the two sides met in this way, Blue Ruoting could be regarded as swaying freely and with extraordinary demeanor, which Feng Lingbo admired. Combined with the experience of being cheated before, Feng Lingbo became more and more convinced that Blue Ruoting was a rare talent, and he was quite thinking of taking him under his command.
Relatively speaking, Blue Ruoting is not an ordinary person, but also a person with strategy in mind. He can deal with such occasions with ease, but he is not good at Niu You Dao 's strengths . he.
Niu You Dao 's ability can't be put on the stage, and he can't show it clearly. But what Blue Ruoting said on this occasion can touch the pros and cons of military and political affairs, making Feng Lingbo nod and think deeply. No matter how gaudy Niu You Dao said, it was still difficult for Feng Lingbo to nod his head in agreement. The difference between the two is obvious.
Of course, Niu You Dao didn't want to be in the limelight at all, and used to hide his achievements and fame.
All in all, after getting in touch, Feng Lingbo admired Blue Ruoting very much, and the two parties talked very smoothly. The marriage between Shang Chaozong and Feng Ruonan was not too late, and a good date was chosen nearby, and it was set in three days' time!
