Tang Jiusheng and the fat man, Shui Ruyue, and Xiahou Lingyu went straight to the direction of the grass tree hall in the backyard of the pseudo palace, Tang Jiusheng had already obtained the map of the pseudo Jiannan Palace, so he knew the terrain well. When the four of them arrived at the grass tree hall across the courtyard of the fifth courtyard, sure enough, Tang Fulong and the two attendants of the red and black masks took Anan and were confronting Niu Mandi and several of his guards and housekeepers here.

The fat man looked around leisurely, only to see the carved beams and paintings of the grass tree hall, there is a garden in front of the patio, there is a small pond in the patio, the pond is planted with four lotus, although there is no lotus in winter, but the round leaves float on the turquoise water, it is still very moving. There are also some fragrant flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, and the fat man can't name them.

Niu Mandi was standing at the door of the main hall of the Grass and Tree Hall, and shouted at Tang Fulong with a sad and angry face: "Tang Fulong, your father and son are too deceitful, your son led people to rob several of my counties, and also brought people to hit my palace, you even brought people to raid my palace, don't go too far with your father and son!" Niu Mandi suddenly changed his face again, and begged: "Old national teacher, you just give me a way to live, why do you have to kill them all?"

Tang Fulong held the golden dragon head crutch in his hand and sneered, "Cows are all over the ground, the grievances between us are not personal grievances, Jiannan Dao has been too bitter by you in the past few years, the old man has been working hard in Jiangnan Dao for the past few years, and he has no time to take care of here, if it weren't for my son here, what would I do? You despicable and shameless villain actually laid down the Heaven and Earth Net Array and the Ling Tian Sword Array, if I hadn't come here, wouldn't my son have been poisoned by you?"

Niu Mandi almost jumped up, and said with an excited face: "If he doesn't bring people to break into my palace, what else do I need for a big array? I have worked hard for more than ten years, and it is gone, gone! I hate to sleep on his skin and eat his meat! In this way, if you withdraw, I will immediately let people withdraw from the big array, and we will not interfere with the river water." I know that now that Luo Fengyang is here, Bai Yueting and Wan Deyan will no longer be able to save me! But if I want to escape, you still can't do anything to me, after all, this is the territory I have been operating for many years!"

Tang Jiusheng laughed and said: "Niu is all over the ground, you are so confident, so courageous! Can you escape? You might as well try to escape! You have set up a great array of heaven and earth nets, why don't I set up a heaven and earth net! For the sake of the people of Jiannan who hate you to the bone, I can't let you go, let you go, how can I explain to the people of Jiannan, how can I explain to the saints of today, how can I explain to the people of the world?"

Niu Mandi suddenly gritted his teeth, black blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth, Niu Mandi fell to the ground in despair, his eyes began to drift, and he muttered: "Tang Jiusheng, you can't catch me, I have already prepared to be poisoned, if it doesn't work out, I will take poison and commit suicide, do you want to arrest me? You can only catch a cold corpse, Tang Jiusheng, you can't fight me! Jiannan Dao is mine, it will always be mine!"

Niu Chengming tried to pick up the cow all over the ground, and howled dryly: "Lord Wang, why do you want to take poison? We still have soldiers, and generals, and we can fight the last battle, why do you want to take poison? Lord Wang!"

Tang Jiusheng looked at Niu Chengming, and said coldly: "The generals outside your mansion saw that Ning Chenggang and other fierce generals had already surrendered to this king, and they all gave up resistance and surrendered to this king, where do you still have soldiers and generals?"

Niu Chengming's eyes were full of fire, and he scolded: "Phew, a traitor like Ning Chenggang trusts him in vain and hands over the most elite army of the palace to him, but he is the first to surrender!"

The fat man smiled and said: "You know a ball! Those who know the times are Junjie, and now they don't surrender and wait to be arrested and then beheaded all over the house? Can you three or two kittens and puppies jump around for a few days? Do you want to fight the world? You don't take the people seriously at all, who will support you? A few days ago, you posted a conscription notice, and how many people were willing to come to join the army? The soldiers couldn't be recruited, so you still want to take over the world, isn't this a big dream of the Spring and Autumn Festival?"

Niu Chengming also sat paralyzed on the ground, looking at the eyes more and more distracted, and the cow that was about to die was all over the ground. Tang Fulong sighed, and walked out with two attendants in red and black masks and A Nan, since this person is dead, just leave it to his son to deal with.

Tang Jiusheng stepped forward, came to Niu Mandi, squatted down and tried his snort, sure enough, it was extremely weak, Tang Jiusheng stretched out his hand, pinched his wrist, and wanted to give him a pulse. Niu Chengming, who was sitting stupidly on the ground and looking at the cows all over the ground, took out a dagger with cold light from his boots with lightning speed, and stabbed Tang Jiusheng in the chest, the two were close at hand, Tang Jiusheng's entire attention was on Niu Mandi, who was taking poison, and he didn't have time to react at all.

The dagger stabbed Tang Jiusheng's chest, Tang Jiusheng's back was stabbed and protruded backwards, Tang Jiusheng's face changed, and his expression was extremely painful. Tang Jiusheng looked at Niu Chengming, his face was as cold as ice. Niu Chengming struck a blow and laughed maniacally: "Lord Wang, I have finally avenged you! I stabbed him in the heart!"

The fat man, Shui Ruyue, and Xiahou Lingyu were obviously stunned by this sudden change, and they all froze in place and did not say anything. Tang Jiusheng suddenly sighed, "Niu is famous, your acting is really not clever enough!" As he spoke, Tang Jiusheng "pulled" out the dagger that stabbed him in the chest and held it in the palm of his hand, but there was not a drop of blood on the dagger.

Niu Chengming's expression was sluggish, he looked at Tang Jiusheng in disbelief, and muttered: "How is it possible! How can this sword not stab you! This dagger is highly poisonous, and if you stab it, you will die!"

The fat man suddenly laughed, "Niu is famous, and he is not afraid of you know, our prince is wearing two pieces of soft armor, which can be said to be invulnerable, don't you see that his clothes outside are all cut by the knife qi, but there is no blood on his body at all? Can your dagger be more fierce than Yu Fuzi's knife qi? Alas, it really doesn't have a brain!"

Tang Jiusheng threw away the dagger in his hand and sneered: "This person who died by poisoning is not Niu Mandi, the real Niu Mandi is probably already in the tunnel where he escaped at this moment, right?"

Niu Chengming's body was shocked, his expression was frightened, and he blurted out: "How do you know?" As soon as the words came out, he regretted it, and the fat man behind Tang Jiusheng laughed loudly, "Boy, you are really honest! Niu is full of such greedy and fearful of death, how can he be willing to take poison and die? Fat man, I am the first to not believe that he will take poison and commit suicide!"

Tang Jiusheng tore off the skin on the face of "Niu Mandi" and threw it aside, and under the skin it was not Niu Mandi himself, but a fair-skinned middle-aged man. Tang Jiusheng slowly stood up, looked at Niu Chengming and said expressionlessly: "The skin on his face is really the same, but you are so careless that you forgot to put skin on this person's ears and eyes." How can a cow have such white ears and eyes with black skin all over the ground?"

Xiahou Lingyu asked loudly: "Brother Tang, since Niu Mandi escaped with the golden cicada shell, what should we do next?"

Tang Jiusheng sneered, "Run, let him run, where can he go? His secret passage is also guarded by my people, I am not afraid that he will fly into the sky, unless he has already fled! Even if he escapes, he will go in the direction of Pingxi Palace, if he escapes to Pingxi Palace, I already know his end, and it is strange that Yin Quan does not kill him!"

Niu Chengming, who was sitting on it, suddenly burst out laughing, and said with a disdainful expression: "How is it possible, the prince of my family has a good relationship with the king of Pingxi, how can the king of Pingxi kill the prince of my family! When the news spreads, who will cooperate with the king of Pingxi again? How can he destroy his reputation and do such a stupid thing!"

Tang Jiusheng said disdainfully: "If your family really flees to the Pingxi Palace, Yin Quan will definitely kill him, because he has no use value." Niu Mandi raised troops in advance but was defeated, has been exposed, he is now fleeing to Yin Quan, the news will definitely leak out, this is equivalent to roasting Yin Quan on the fire, Yin Quan does not kill him, it proves that Yin Quan and he are the same party, although the court is unable to encircle and suppress Yin Quan, but Yin Quan's strength is not enough to succeed now, so he will definitely kill Niu Mandi and show his innocence to the court!

Niu Chengming nodded, and suddenly smiled: "You are the same as what my prince said, but it's a pity that you can't catch my prince, my prince is no longer in the palace......!" The prince saved me at the end of the road, today I assassinated Tang Jiusheng for the prince, although it was not successful, it was enough to repay the prince's great kindness, I died without regrets, but it is a pity that I couldn't see the day when the prince achieved a great cause, it's a pity, it's a pity!"
