Chapter 83 The Study Shop

Not to mention, this woman's hand feels good, and the softness from the hair makes one feel comfortable physically and mentally.

Niu Youdao closed his eyes and enjoyed, waiting, guessing what the other party had, and waiting for the other party to say it.

"Master Dao, that Wei Duo is still kneeling outside." Shang Shuqing reminded.

Niu Youdao said indifferently: "Shang Qingzong wants to kill me! If he loves to kneel, let him kneel!"

Shang Shuqing was silent again, until she helped him tie up his hair, and said again: "If Master Dao needs a quiet place to retreat, we have an absolutely safe place here, at least so far, it has not been exposed to outsiders. Pass."

Niu Youdao said, "Is there any here? Where?"

Shang Shuqing: "To tell you the truth, the foundation of our brothers and sisters in Canglu County is not only what we see in front of us, but also a secret place!"

"Secret realm?" Niu Youdao slowly opened his eyes and asked, "What kind of secret realm?"

Shang Shuqing: "The matter is of great importance. It is inconvenient to tell Master Dao the specific situation now. If Master Dao is willing to go there to practice in seclusion, he will see it when the time comes."

Niu Youdao pondered for a while, "If it can guarantee safety, it's okay to go."

Shang Shuqing: "Okay! Arrange it for Master Dao right away, but you may have to wait a few days to cover it up, otherwise, if Master Dao disappears suddenly, it will be easy to be suspected by sister-in-law and the others."

"I can afford to wait for a few days." Niu Youdao agreed, but after being silent for a while, he asked again: "Is it the prince and Mr. Lan that you persuaded me to go to that secret realm to retreat and practice?"

Shang Shuqing was stunned for a moment, he didn't know how he guessed that the place was of great importance, Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting were indeed hesitant to ask Niu Youdao to go there, and it was indeed her persuasion that persuaded him. She ignored it and asked, "Does Master Dao have hairpins?"

She had already tied up Niu Youdao's bun, only to find that there was a hairpin missing.

Seeing that she was avoiding that question, Niu Youdao stopped asking. In fact, he knew what kind of secret place he was going to retreat, and he was more or less worried that he would never return. The problem was not that he would not come back. With Tianyu With the support of the door, his role has been weakened. The key point is that he confided the major plan to himself before, and he knows the truth about the Hundred Thousand Crow Generals. Once the news is leaked, this side will be destroyed forever.

If it was a more ruthless person, I was afraid that he would silence him, but it would not be so easy for Shang Chaozong to kill him quietly, and it would be difficult to use the monks from Feng Ruonan's side. Explain, didn't he say that he is good at finding the one hundred thousand crows? If there is no legitimate reason to do it, Tianyumen must find out what is going on.

"I never use hairpins, where did I get them?" Niu Youdao smiled.

Shang Shuqing hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and pulled out a more neutral one from his bun, and put his hand on Niu Youdao's bun. When she was not going out, she did not wear a gauze hat, but only half covered her face with a gauze scarf.

After looking at the tidy and uncluttered hairstyle, Shang Shuqing asked with a smile, "What do you think, Master Dao?"

"Mirror." Niu Youdao beckoned.

Yuan Gang quickly came over with a bronze mirror, Niu Youdao took the bronze mirror to take a picture, and asked Yuan Gang: "How do you feel?"

Yuan Gang: "That's right, I've become more energetic."

The bronze mirror was returned to him, and Niu Youdao got up and turned around, stroked his hair and laughed, "I don't want to let go of what the princess did with his own hands."

Shang Shuqing pursed her lips and smiled: "It's okay, if Master Dao doesn't dislike it, I will take care of this matter from now on."

Niu Youdao waved his hand, how could he treat the princess as a maid...

In Canglu County, the turmoil after a cleansing has quickly calmed down. Some families are happy and some are sad. Everyone knows that Xiaomin can't fight against the general trend and can only follow the trend.

A study shop on the street called 'Jingmoxuan' is the best study shop in the county, and the grades of pens, ink, paper and inkstones in the shop are also the best in this county. Jingmoxuan seems to be operating as usual, but there is a change of people on the counter. The original shopkeeper was affected by the recent turmoil, saying that he had gone to avoid the limelight. This is not a special case. Many shop owners seem to have maintained a similar wait-and-see attitude after witnessing some shops being copied.

The new shopkeeper was dressed in plain clothes, with a thin figure, and took a feather duster to dust the dust on the furnishings, meticulously and conscientiously.

The three wandering on the street walked outside Jingmoxuan, looked up at the signboard, quietly looked around, and entered the shops one after another.

"The three guests' points..." The new shopkeeper turned around when he heard the sound, and just greeted him, but before he finished speaking, he was stunned when he saw the leader of the three.

The leader, a burly man, looked at the furnishings in the shop and slowly approached the new shopkeeper.

The new shopkeeper said in a low voice, "Brother Liu, why are you here?"

The man also said in a low voice: "Lu Shengzhong, Wang Heng asked you to avenge Young Master Yanqing, it's good for you to come here and sell pens, ink, paper and inkstones, why are you pretending to be elegant?"

As he said, this new shopkeeper is none other than Lu Shengzhong who was ordered by Wang Heng to take Niu Youdao's head. And this man is not someone else, Liu Ziyu, the son of Liu Lu, the housekeeper of the Song family in Tingwei Mansion in the capital city, and Liu Ziyu, a disciple of Liuxianzong, also came here after getting the word from the Song family.

Although the two are not very familiar with each other, because the Song family and the Wang family are related by marriage, the two families have contacts, so the two have met each other, so they naturally know each other and know each other's details.

You are the one who pretends to be elegant! Lu Shengzhong slandered, "It's nothing more than a house slave, but he has the nerve to come out and boss him around."

I put the unpleasant words in my stomach, and said politely on the surface: "This is not a place to talk, come to the back hall." After seeing the movement outside, he put down the feather duster, turned around and walked in, and opened a curtain to enter.

The three of Liu Ziyu followed, and as soon as they met in the back hall, Lu Shengzhong asked again: "Why are you here?"

Liu Ziyu said indifferently: "Do you need to talk? I'm afraid you won't be able to eat alone, so let me sit and watch. The family attaches so much importance to it, you are fine, you are very leisurely, are you going to fool around and go back to work?"

Lu Shengzhong smiled wryly and said, "Brother Liu, since you're here, don't you know what's going on in Canglu County? Niu Youdao has so many masters around him, how can it be so easy to make a move? Am I looking for an opportunity?"

Liu Ziyu snorted coldly: "Stop doing this, who are you fooling? I've been staring at you for a day or two, and you're hiding in this shop, and you don't go out to inquire about news. Looking for an opportunity to strike?"

Lu Shengzhong sighed: "Now this place is under the control of Shang Dynasty Zong. Who knows if there is a secret sentry, and looking around for news to attract people's attention is courting death. Even if you find out the news, so what? Bai Yao is by Niu Youdao's side, you Can I do it directly? So it can only be outsmarted, invincible!"

Liu Ziyu raised her eyebrows and said, "Hiding in this study shop is called outsmarting?"

Lu Shengzhong shook his head, seemingly helpless, "Brother Liu, since you have been staring at me for more than a day or two, you must know something about it. Let me ask you, how does my Jingmoxuan compare with other similar shops in Cangwu County?" how?"

Liu Ziyu frowned, "It's the best, does it have something to do with your outsmarting?"

Lu Shengzhong spread his palms, "Think about it, with so many people in the Shang Dynasty, it's impossible not to use pens, ink, paper and inkstones, right? On this ground, the grade of the people in the Shang Dynasty, the study rooms they use are naturally not bad, so come and buy them. If this is the case, Jingmoxuan must be the first choice, this is the opportunity to get in touch, and it is also the least likely to attract suspicion!"

As soon as the words were said here, a person guarding behind the curtain and opening a crack to observe the outside suddenly "shh", signaling to keep silent.

Immediately after, someone shouted outside, "Is the shopkeeper there?"

Lu Shengzhong raised his hand to Liu Ziyu to signal to wait a moment, he quickly opened the curtain and went out, he was stunned for a moment when he saw a strong man outside, but he did know him, it was Yingyang Wulie Wei's attire, not to mention the saber hanging from his waist. He immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, "Guest officer, what do you want?"

The visitor asked the price of some pens, inks, papers and inkstones, ordered some of them, paid for them, and ordered them to be packed.

Lu Shengzhong didn't say much, but when packing, he took a pen and wrote a note, dried it and put it in it to pack together.

Seeing this, the visitor asked curiously: "Shopkeeper, what did you write in it?"

Lu Shengzhong said with a chuckle: "The study shop, it sells an elegant taste. I just wrote a poem and put it in. I hope you will visit again." The packed things were placed in front of the other party.

The visitor said with a chuckle: "You scholars are particular about it." Shaking his head, he picked up his things and left.

Seeing off the guests to the door, he looked around on the street, Lu Shengzhong quickly went back to the back hall, and bumped into Liu Ziyu who was peeping behind the curtain.

Liu Ziyu turned around and followed, saying: "A person who is brave and strong?"

"It really came to the point, it seems that my judgment is correct." Lu Shengzhong rubbed his hands excitedly, "I heard that Shang Shuqing is a person who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so I put a good poem in it, and I am proud of my martial arts." When Lie Wei's people bring her back, it will definitely spread to her ears to attract her attention, this is an opportunity to gradually get in touch, and then wait for the opportunity to act! Even if it causes other insiders to associate with me, that's fine."

"Good poetry?" Liu Ziyu looked him up and down, "You can also write poetry? Are you sure that a poem you write can arouse their interest in you?"

Lu Shengzhong chuckled, walked to the small case inside, rubbed the ink a little, picked up the brush and dipped the ink to write a poem on a piece of paper, put the pen down, lifted the paper and shook it, turned around and handed it, "Brother Liu appreciates it." How about this poem."

Liu Ziyu was full of doubts, took a look at the hand, and muttered: "Once the sea was too difficult for water, except Wushan is not a cloud. Take the time to look back at Hua Cong, half destined to practice Taoism and half destined to be a gentleman!" After seeing it, he nodded his head and looked at the other party in surprise. , "Good poetry, it really is good poetry, I didn't expect Brother Lu to have such talent!" There was obviously a little more admiration in his expression.

Lu Shengzhong waved his hand, "I'm sorry, this is actually not my poem, it is a poem given to me by your young master Song Yanqing, I just borrowed it." Speaking of this, he was a little emotional, and suddenly heard that Song Yanqing appeared in the capital Talented in poetry, when Song Yanqing came to the Wang family to visit his father-in-law Wang Heng, he complimented him, but Song Yanqing actually wrote it for him, and wrote two poems at once. He disdained it at first, but he was very surprised after seeing it. They are really good poems!

"Master Yanqing writes poems?" Liu Ziyu's expression twitched, he knew the ink in Song Yanqing's belly too well, writing poems? What are you kidding? Looking down at the poem in his hand, he murmured in his heart that he didn't know who to ask for the pen...
