,.

Listening to the meaning of Tang Yi's words and the sudden appearance of the princess, Niu Youdao secretly muttered in his heart, it seems that Prince Ning and Dong Guo Haoran have a good relationship! Could it be that Dongguo Haoran had been the mage next to King Ning

Tang Yi pointed at Niu Youdao and introduced, "Princess, this is Niu Youdao. After the death of the master uncle, he is the only disciple left!"

Shang Shuqing bowed and saluted again, "I've seen the Master!"

Niu Youdao bowed his hands and returned the greeting: "Your Majesty, you're welcome." He glanced at Tang Yi, wondering what the woman meant by bringing the Princess here.

"Junior brother, you don't want the guests to stand at the door and talk all the time, right?" Tang Yi asked.

Junior brother? Niu Youdao frowned slightly and cursed a bitch secretly. He used to call him husband when he came to see her. What does it mean to call him junior brother in front of outsiders? Do you still feel that you are losing money when I let you, an old cow, eat young grass because I am handsome and unrestrained

I only dared to say this in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it with my mouth. I quickly reached out my hand and said, "I was negligent, please!"

After a few people entered, Tang Yi looked around and introduced: "Princess, this is the place where my uncle studied during his lifetime. Now there is only one younger brother left in the uncle's lineage, alas!"

"Clean and elegant, a great place!" Shang Shuqing praised.

Taking seats in the pavilion in the yard one after another, Shang Shuqing took off a long box he was carrying behind him and put it aside.

Tang Yi gave Tu Han a wink, and the latter poured tea and left.

The two women chatted over tea, while Niu Youdao basically remained silent. This was also because he didn't know the situation of the Shangqing Sect and didn't want to get into trouble by talking too much.

Who would have thought that after Tang Yi put down the tea cup, he said, "Junior brother, the princess is here to see you."

"Me?" Niu Youdao pointed to his nose, looking at this and that, his head full of confusion.

Shang Shuqing put the wooden box on the table and opened it, showing the contents to Niu Youdao. There was a long sword lying quietly inside.

Niu Youdao still didn't understand what it meant. He looked at Tang Yi with suspicious eyes, seemingly asking, "Did you give it to me?"

Tang Yi explained calmly: "This is a sword given to King Ning by his uncle when the Shangqing Sect was favored by King Ning. He once said something to King Ning, but he asked for something. He should repay it within his ability. Such a favor! Now that the Commander-in-Chief Sword has come and my uncle is no longer here, it is my junior brother who should repay this kindness!"

"..." Niu Youdao was dumb. Did you make a mistake? This is okay? But he also knew that he had no part in being reasonable here, so he tried to ask: "I don't know how to repay my kindness?"

Tang Yi said calmly: "The princess is traveling with the young prince this time, and she needs a mage to accompany her."

This repayment of gratitude sounds simple, but Niu Youdao is not a fool, and a young prince appears again. What kind of identity does he travel in? According to the situation in this world, how can such a noble identity not have a mage retinue around him? The dignified princess personally came here to ask for a favor, just for an ordinary mage's retinue? No matter how I listen to it, I feel like there's something wrong with it.

He looked at Shang Shuqing, who was wearing a gauze hat and couldn't see his reaction clearly.

"Well..." Niu Youdao said reluctantly, "Isn't it appropriate for me to go?"

Tang Yi stood up and said, "Junior brother, come here."

Niu Youdao had no choice but to follow him with suspicion.

After entering the main hall and the back room, Tang Yi suddenly turned around and stared at him, "My Shangqing Sect is a well-known and upright sect, and I will never go back on my promises. I made a promise to others back then, but if I break my promise, my Shangqing Sect will Wouldn't you be ridiculed by others? Now that my uncle is gone, if you don't pay back the favor left by my uncle, who will pay it back?"

Niu Youdao sighed: "What they want is a mage's retinue. What's the point of me running away? Do you think I can be considered a mage?"

Tang Yi said: "What is your identity? Do you think you are missing a bodyguard? I don't know how many people in my family want to be with me as mage, but they are just here for my uncle. What do you think I should do?"

Niu Youdao stared into her eyes and said calmly: "Do I have to go?"

The look in his eyes after these words made Tang Yi tilt her head to avoid his gaze, "If you don't go, you will ruin the reputation of the Shangqing Sect and you will be severely punished according to the sect's rules!"

There was a hint of self-mockery in the corner of Niu Youdao's mouth, and he smiled and said: "It seems that I have no choice. Well, since it is a favor owed by the master, I will pay it back!"

Seeing that he agreed, Tang Yi said nothing more and turned around to leave.

The two returned to the courtyard. Niu Youdao accepted the sword, which was equivalent to agreeing. He took the sword in his hand in front of the two women, and pulled out a sword blade with a clang. The cold light was sharp, and the sword blade was full of energy. There are lines, there is a hint of murderous intent, and there is a chill. I can't help but praise, "What a sword!"

There are four words "Blue Blood Heart" engraved near the hilt of the sword. He doesn't know if it is Dong Guo Haoran's sword, but this inscription has a somewhat tragic meaning.

After Tang Yi said a few words, Shang Shuqing thanked Niu Youdao: "Thank you, Master!"

Niu Youdao sheathed the sword in his hand with a clang and looked at her, "The princess has refused to show her true colors from beginning to end..."

In the middle of speaking, Tang Yi suddenly interrupted with a shout, "Junior brother, please don't be rude!"

"It's okay!" Shang Shuqing said frankly and generously, reaching out to lift up her veil, revealing her face.

Niu Youdao was looking forward to it, but after just one glance, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and almost startled.

Listening to the voice and looking at the figure, the voice is so nice, the figure is so graceful, and the behavior is so elegant, I thought that even if she is not a beauty, she should be able to get by, but who knows that the other person's face is simply a yin and yang face, with most of the face covered with black and blue birthmarks , it’s so ugly that it can make people jump in broad daylight, and I finally understand why the other person keeps wearing a gauze.

Tang Yi didn't think it was strange. He had obviously seen it before. He gave Niu Youdao a cold look, seemingly saying, are you satisfied now

"The little girl has an ugly face, which frightened the mage." Shang Shuqing apologized with her shallow teeth exposed, and lowered her veil again.

Niu Youdao looked embarrassed, cupped his hands and said, "It was Niu who was abrupt, Princess, don't blame me."

"Okay!" Tang Yi stopped the two people from being polite and said, "It's getting late now and it's inconvenient to travel. You can pack up tonight and accompany the princess down the mountain early tomorrow morning."

"I know." Niu Youdao nodded.

Tang Yi reached out and invited Shang Shuqing to leave together.

Niu Youdao walked to the door and looked at Tu Han who was guarding outside. The latter also followed and left. The short-term popularity dissipated and the usual deserted mood returned.

The peach blossoms still laughed at the spring breeze. Niu Youdao walked to the peach tree again and sat down. He took out the sword in his hand and made a deep mark on the ground with the sword's edge. It was very sharp. He clicked his tongue in his heart. There was a hidden copper in front of him. Mirror, looking at this sword now, it seems that the casting technology in this world is indeed beyond my imagination.

He was playing with the sword and admiring it, but his mind was not on the sword. He thought that he could finally get out of here and officially see the outside world, but he couldn't be happy. He clearly noticed that there seemed to be something fishy about this trip, whether it was good or bad, he But nothing.

He really didn't expect to escape from Shangqing Sect's house arrest in this way.

The sun was gradually setting in the west, and he was lying under the brilliant peach tree, bathing in the afterglow of the sunset. Although beautiful, he remained motionless. He didn't know what he was thinking...

In the deserted palace, Tang Susu sat cross-legged on the futon quietly. Tang Yi walked in, came to Tang Susu's side and saluted: "Elder!"

Tang Susu asked: "Master, have everything been settled?"

Tang Yi said "Yeah" and said nothing more.

Tang Susu: "Does the leader think I'm going too far?"

Tang Yi: "I just think that since it was the Shangqing Sect that received the favor from King Ning, it should be the Shangqing Sect to repay it. Why put all the responsibility on Master Dongguo?"

Tang Susu: "Isn't he a disciple of the Shangqing Sect? Besides, it was indeed Dongguo Haoran who gave the sword and made the promise. Now that Prince Ning's children are in trouble, it is natural for the disciple to pay back the promise made by the master, and there is nothing wrong with it. "

Tang Yi looked down at the ground and sighed softly: "Those brothers and sisters are not fools. Whether Niu Youdao is capable or not, sooner or later you will have to figure out the clues that the Shangqing Sect is fooling them."

Tang Susu: "So what? If you are really smart, you should know not to come to the Shangqing Sect at this time, and you should not make it difficult for the Shangqing Sect. They are coming, and I, the famous Shangqing Sect, can't say anything about it. But Wuxin naturally has to fulfill his promise. If someone gives it to them, what else do they want?"

Tang Yi: "But if we do this, it is tantamount to letting Niu Youdao die."

Tang Susu slowly stood up and stared into her eyes, "Master, you are not really attracted to him, are you? The master needs to understand one thing. You are responsible for the revival of the Shangqing Sect. How can we This old guy is trying to push you into the position and has hope in you. You can't forget your righteousness because of your children's affair!"

Tang Yi shook his head: "The elder is overthinking. He and I are just a couple in name only. We have never met each other a few times. How could there be any personal relationship between children? I just feel that what we are doing is not the behavior of a noble family." ?”

Tang Susu was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, her voice became sharp, "Dong Guo Haoran brought that on himself. He knew clearly that what Prince Ning had done had aroused the public indignation of the monks all over the world, and sooner or later he would die a good death, yet he still He dared to flirt with Prince Ning. Back then, his senior brother wanted him to take over the position of leader, but he was suppressed by several senior commanders. Facts have proved that he is right. What is the fate of Prince Ning now? If he is really involved, do you think those people will Let Shangqing Sect go? It’s already this time, and they still come to Shangqing Sect. Why not bring trouble to Shangqing Sect? The Shangqing Sect’s current foundation really cannot withstand the trouble. The calamity of annihilating the family, you are the leader, you should know the severity!"

Tang Yi said calmly: "The elder seems to have forgotten something. He is my husband by name. If he comes forward, once the news gets out, is there any difference between it and the Shangqing Sect being involved?"

As if aware of her gaffe, Tang Susu calmed down quickly and said calmly: "Girl, you don't have to worry about this. I have already arranged it. There will be no chance of being implicated in the future. Now your position is stable. No need to leave any more trouble!"

Tang Yi was startled, realizing the deep meaning of her words, and suddenly narrowed her pupils and stared at her... .
