"The official doctor of the Gangneung Mansion? Wu Liang? After Li Langzhong finished speaking, he left the room, Qin Baichuan muttered a few words, took out his chief master's token from his arms, and threw it to Tan Jiaotou: "Take this token and go to the government to find Lu Yuanxing, just say that I said it, no matter what method is exhausted, you must invite Wu Liang to me!" Just go! ”

Tan Jiaotou hesitated slightly, in principle, he couldn't leave Qin Baichuan, but there was always a priority in things, today this is purely an emergency, and Father Xu is just an ordinary person, so I don't think there are any moths in it. And Qin Baichuan gave the token, and he was not afraid of revealing his identity, Tan Jiaotou nodded and agreed, and rushed out of the room quickly.

"Xiu'er, come and sit down for a while, Sect Leader Tan will personally invite you, then Wu Liang will definitely come as promised." After Tan Jiaotou left, seeing Xu Xiu standing there stupidly without speaking, Qin Baichuan took her little hand and said with some distress.

"Big brother...... Qin Baichuan's big hands were dry and warm, Xu Xiu raised his teary-eyed little face, and said softly: "I'm sorry ......"

"Excuse me? Why say you're sorry? Qin Baichuan's voice was gentle, and he said with a smile: "Then after Wu Liang comes over, Daddy Xu will definitely be safe, take 10,000 steps back, even if Daddy Xu really has any accidents, as long as the eldest brother is still there, no one in the world will be able to bully you." ”

"No, it's not." Xu Xiu shook his head vigorously, looked up at Qin Baichuan as if he wanted to say something, but subconsciously glanced at the door and closed his mouth tightly. Qin Baichuan felt that Xiu'er's expression was a little strange, and he only thought that Father Xu's sudden illness hit her too hard, so he didn't take it to heart.

Pulling Xu Xiu to sit down next to him, Qin Baichuan picked up the pu fan left by Li Langzhong, and fanned the flame in the furnace vigorously, in Qin Baichuan's opinion, this fumigation method may not be as good as the sauna of drunken Huayin, but since Li Langzhong said that this is the last method, he can only do it.

The room fell into a short silence, and this silence did not last long, Qin Baichuan heard five knocks at the door. Qin Baichuan raised his head and frowned, "Who?" ”

"Big brother......" Qin Baichuan got up to open the door, Xu Xiu got up from his seat in a panic, and said with a guilty face: "It's my own person...... Big brother, I'm sorry, I ...... I lied to you......"

"Lie to me?" Qin Baichuan was puzzled.

"Miss Xiu'er is simple and kind by nature, and the old man is afraid that she will show any flaws...... But fortunately, I finally separated the irrelevant people. Xu Xiu bowed his head and said nothing, and the sleepy and half-dead Father Xu on the bed actually turned over, bowed slightly to Xu Xiu, and said with a smile: "Miss Xiu'er, all the mistakes are the old man's fault, and Qin Xiaoyou should blame the old man if he wants to blame." ”

Seeing clearly the person who spoke through the misty medicinal qi in the room, Qin Baichuan suddenly exclaimed: "Lord Lu? You ......"

"Qin Xiaoyou, it's been a long time." The one who was lying on the bed pretending to be sick was actually Master Lu Shigao, Qin Baichuan was surprised, but Lu Shigao laughed: "After Ding Sanshi came back that day, he said the situation in the Baihua Workshop that day, and the old man wanted to see Xiaoyou, but he was afraid of causing you trouble, so he could only make this decision." ”

"This is not a lower policy, but a superior policy, a superior strategy!" Qin Baichuan was stunned for a while and basically understood the cause and effect, he was playing with Ding Sanshi in the Hundred Flowers Workshop that day, and he thought that Lord Lu could also see that he was being watched, so he tried his best to meet him. Qin Baichuan was inexplicably happy in his heart, and hugged his fists and said, "Lord Lu, I was looking for you, but I never had a chance!" Oh, by the way, you pretend to be Daddy Xu, the real Daddy Xu......"

"Big brother...... My dad did get a cold, but he's getting better. Xu Xiu didn't dare to look at his eyes because he had deceived Brother Qin, and said in a low voice: "Last night, Lord Lu found me and my father, and said that I wanted to see you, so that I and my father could cooperate with him......"

"Needless to say, I get it." Hearing that Daddy Xu was fine, Qin Baichuan was even more relieved and touched Xiu'er's head: "I didn't see it, Xiu'er also has the potential to be an actor!" Your acting skills are so good, even the eldest brother has lied! ”

"Big Brother ......" Qin Baichuan praised Xu Xiu from the bottom of his heart, but Xiu'er almost cried again: "I was originally nervous, and I couldn't do this kind of drama...... But Lord Lu said that the eldest brother's fate is hanging by a thread now, as long as any link goes wrong, maybe the eldest brother will die. As soon as I thought that I would never see my eldest brother again, I couldn't stop the tears, and I kept crying and rushed from home to the Hundred Flowers Workshop......"

"Lord Lu, as a dignified emperor, is it really good for you to coax a little girl like this?" Xu Xiu's eyes were red as she spoke, Qin Baichuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her wipe the corners of her eyes, and turned back to Lu Shigao and said angrily.

"Qin Xiaoyou, if something happens suddenly, there is no better way for the old man." Lu Shigao also felt that it was a bit unauthentic to scare Xu Xiu, but this was not the time to say this, Lu Shigao said to Xiu'er: "Miss Xiu'er, the old man apologizes in every way, and he has to wait until he finishes talking to Qin Xiaoyou." You have to do a lot of play, and you have to go and decoct the medicine for Daddy Xu, and you will be sent to the room later. ”

"Hmm." Even though Xu Xiu still wanted to stay with Brother Qin for a while, she knew in her heart that what they were going to say was definitely beyond the participation of a poor woman, so after agreeing obediently, she left quickly.

"Qin Xiaoyou, what's going on?" Lu Shigao sat opposite Qin Baichuan, with unprecedented solemnity on his face: "Ding Sanshi said that there are a few more faces around you, and they are not ordinary people?" ”

"It's true that it's not an ordinary person, that Tan Jiaotou and the big dog and night eye who helped me train the Junior Army in the Bliss Sect, they were born in the Longevity Palace." Qin Baichuan sighed lightly: "That day, Brother Ding went to the Hundred Flowers Workshop to look for me, and I deliberately made that play because...... I'm being watched. ”

"Longevity Palace?" Lu Shigao narrowed his eyes: "Qin Xiaoyou, what the hell is going on, you pick and tell the old man!" ”

"After the tripartite cooperation, Qin drank with Lord Lu and Lu Yuanxing in the mansion and put forward some suggestions, and waited for Quxi not ......to return after returning to Wanhua Xiaozhu" Qin Baichuan did not delay, and explained how Quxi disappeared, how he found Hu Bo in the Baihua Workshop, how he found the head of the Qianjin Gambling House, and how he met Cheng Xingyun, and finally said: "Qin is struggling now, with the wordless contract as a threat, Qu Xi and others are always exposed in broad daylight, That's why I'm eager to see Lord Lu and ask for help. ”

"I'll just say that the coachman before you has an extraordinary background, and he turned out to be a person from the Longevity Palace, so there is no doubt that Tan Jiaotou was born in the Longevity Palace?" Lu Shigao said to himself: "How could the people of the Nine Crane Dao Leader send Jiangling, and why do they want to spy on you? ”

"Nine Crane Dao Chief, where did this come from?" Qin Baichuan heard this name for the first time.

"As a national teacher of the dynasty, he is in charge of the Longevity Palace and specializes in alchemy for the emperor." Lu Shigao explained: "This Nine Crane Dao grew famous in the rivers and lakes, and when the previous dynasty was in turmoil, he once killed the vanguard camp of 500 people in the Great Zhen Kingdom with one person and one sword, so he became famous. Qin Xiaoyou's "The Condor Heroes" is not there anything in the East and West to poison the Southern Emperor and the Northern Beggar? In the folk of the north of Gangneung, there is also a monk, a Confucianism and a leopard, these four people are regarded as the representatives of Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, and martial arts, and some good deeds have also compiled their stories into books and circulated them in teahouses and restaurants. ”

"One monk, one Confucian, one leopard?" Qin Baichuan only found it interesting: "The Dao here refers to the Nine Crane Dao Chief, could it be that the Confucian refers to you, Lord Lu?" ”

"It's all a false name, don't mention it." Lu Shigao had no interest in these things, and was quite tentative: "Although the Nine Crane Daoist does not participate in the government affairs, his status in the court is by no means inferior to that of the old man. Even if Cheng Xingyun is the descendant of Cheng Jiuxing in Lin'an, he has no right to mobilize the people of the Longevity Palace, can Qin Xiaoyou sense that there seems to be some doorway here? ”

"Master Lu, Qin is really desperate this time, I sincerely ask you for help, why bother to test me?" Qin Baichuan's lips were a little chapped, and he lowered his voice and said, "Qin also guessed that Cheng Xingyun is just a shadow, and the real Lord has someone else." ”

"Oh?" Seeing that Qin Baichuan seemed to be about to solve the mystery, Lu Shigao waved his hand and said: "Come slowly, come slowly, let's write in the palm of our palms, and see if the speculation in your hearts and I is consistent." Qin Baichuan rolled his eyes, Tan Jiaotou may come back at any time, this old man is still playful?

Lu Shigao seemed to see his anxiety, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Ding Sanshi is guarding outside, and I have also made arrangements for the Jiangling Mansion, and the journey is not only that, but I can't come back in half an hour." Lu Shigao did not relent, picked up two extinguished branches from the stove, and handed them to Qin Baichuan.

Qin Baichuan reluctantly took it, the two of them glanced at each other, each stretched out his left hand, and wrote handwriting respectively. After writing, the two put their palms together, Qin Baichuan spread out his palms without thinking about it, and the two simplified characters on it opened his teeth and danced his claws: "Righteous King!" ”

Lu Shigao smiled, but when he opened his palm, there were three traditional characters, but Qin Baichuan could distinguish it, but it was: "Zhaoshan River!" Seeing that Qin Baichuan frowned, Lu Shigao cleaned his palms and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou, don't be surprised, this Zhaoshan River is the name of the righteous king!" ”

"Sure enough, it's the righteous king." Qin Baichuan's heart jumped wildly twice.

In fact, as early as Anyang, Qin Baichuan thought that if someone hadn't given Li Mingxiu a huge benefit, or a bright future, Li Mingxiu would not have betrayed Duke Desheng no matter what. But Li Mingxiu not only betrayed, but even wanted to kill the son of Desheng Gong, who can make Li Mingxiu so blindly obedient in Dasong?

After meeting Cheng Xingyun and Li Ming in the Qianjin Gambling House, Qin Baichuan carefully analyzed all the people and things he could come into contact with, and finally came to the inference that the mysterious lord was the righteous king. This inference seems absurd, but in fact it is the most reasonable, that King Yi is a veritable royal family, and it is better to follow him to do things than to follow Desheng Gong, right?

If you extrapolate it boldly, King Yi is entangled in the manpower plot is the throne, once he succeeds, whether it is Li Mingxiu or Cheng Xingyun, wouldn't he be the founder of the country? But the inference is always the inference, Qin Baichuan still had some luck in his heart before, but as Lu Shigao wrote the name of the righteous king, this inference seems to have been confirmed.
