Chapter 299: A Life That Looks Like It's About to Be Lost
The Daimyo's Mansion after autumn has less of the heat of midsummer, but there is more of a sense of slaughter.
Xu Guanzhong walked aimlessly on the crowded streets, unconsciously looking up at the red sun hanging high in the sky, thinking of the scene when Dr. Ma grabbed the pillar and wailed and cried, the anger in Xu Guanzhong's heart unconsciously gathered, forming a trickle, and merging in the dantian. If there is an acquaintance who is familiar with him passing by at this time, he will definitely be shocked by the murderous aura that appeared on the face of this usually elegant and easy-going young man.
At this time, Cai Fu and Cai Qing handed over an errand and went to a familiar wine party, Cai Qing was no more serious than Cai Fu's temperament, walking on the road and making the wind at his feet, looking around, and suddenly saw Xu Guanzhong in anger, and hurriedly pulled his brother's iron arm and said:
"Brother, isn't this person Xu Guanzhong who just came out of prison? Just now he was talking and laughing with me, what a dashing boy, why is his face so scary at this time? ”
Cai Fu also turned his face when he saw it, and seeing that it was Xu Guanzhong, Cai Fu looked at it two more times and said, "It has nothing to do with us, don't meddle in things!" ”
"I've heard people say that his mother has a kind of heartache that is difficult to treat, and in our Daimyo's mansion, only Doctor Ma can cure it, and now he is locked up in prison, but isn't it a chance to kill him?" Cai Qing spat on the ground and said, "Who can a doctor provoke?" It was going to kill him! How can this world stop? ”
"If it stops, what are we going to eat?" Seeing that his brother suddenly became cynical, Cai Fu felt that his position was a little biased, and it was not good for his younger brother to show this sign, so he immediately made a correct statement.
Cai Qing smiled, shook his head, and didn't argue, just looked back at Xu Guanzhong, and suddenly said, "This guy shouldn't take a risk." Coming to rob the prison? ”
Cai Fu lowered his head and thought about it, and put himself in his shoes: "No!" Doctor Ma will be escorted out of the city tomorrow, and no fool will make trouble tonight! There are five or seven thousand officers and soldiers in the city, is it impossible to set them up? Why don't you ambush on the trail tomorrow and only deal with two escort dukes? ”
Cai Qing was shocked when he heard this, and said: "If this is the case, then should we remind the prefect!" ”
Seeing that his younger brother was startled, Cai Fu sighed and made his words clear: "Who is the escort duke?" Grab a job with us! Let's eliminate disasters for others, and do a sum of money to collect one or two hundred benefits from others. This guy is cheap, thirty or fifty taels to do, one or twenty taels to do, not to mention the broken rules, but also cut off our financial road. Let's not step on it, it's good to make up for him, and give them a tip-off? Is it possible to break the brain? ”
When Cai Qing heard this, he patted his thigh and said silently: "Xu Guanzhong, Xu Guanzhong." If you still have some blood, you will slaughter them halfway, and if you eat people, you will be put in prison. The lord promises not to embarrass you! ”
Xu Guanzhong was furious at this time, losing his previous calmness, and he didn't notice the Cai brothers at all, just walking around. I don't ask about the east, west, north and south, but unconsciously, I have already walked to the house of my confidant. Xu Guanzhong saw this. I don't feel a sigh.
Menzi knew this Yan Qing's old acquaintance, and hurriedly went into the door to invite Yan Qing out, Yan Qing saw Xu Guanzhong's troubled appearance, and said with concern: "Why is my brother like this?" ”
A word of confidant is better than a thousand words of others. Xu Guanzhong sighed with emotion in his heart, knowing that this place was not the place to speak, and said to Yan Qing: "Xiaoyi, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and we will find a clean place and say something considerate!" ”
Yan Qing has been guarding at home for a long time, and Lu Junyi has not returned for a long time, so he is also bored in his heart, and immediately said to Menzi: "I will go out for a while, if there is an emergency, you can go to Cuiyun Tower to find me!" ”
"What can happen, Brother Xiao Yi just go!" Menzi flattered and looked at the red man in front of him.
Yan Qing waved his hand, said a request to Xu Guanzhong, and the two went to Cuiyun Building, as soon as they entered the door, Xu Guanzhong instructed the guys to arrange a private seat by the window, and the two ordered a few elegant side dishes, a pot of wine, and sent the guys out.
Yan Qing got up, filled the wine glass for Xu Guanzhong, and repeated the old words, saying: "I remember that today is about the day when my brother Lingtang uses needles. ”
Xu Guanzhong saw that he invited Yan Qing to sit down, saluted him, and then said: "Doctor Ma is in prison at this time, just because Wang Taishou intends to dismiss him, and he will be sent to Guangnan in a few days. This doctor has a great life-saving grace in my family, but I can't watch him give it away. ”
Yan Qing was taken aback, he stayed at home during this time, so the news was very closed, and he was very surprised when he heard it: "When did it happen?" ”
"It's early this morning, it only took one morning from the arrest to the verdict, and the dispatch will be sent out tomorrow, you said that our prefect Wang turned out to be a capable official!" Xu Guanzhong said sarcastically.
"Doctor Ma is a well-known person in the Daimyo's mansion, Wang Wancang will not risk the disapproval of the world and want to harm him?" Yan Qing was shocked, and unconsciously called Wang Taishou's name.
Xu Guanzhong snorted coldly and told the reason why Doctor Ma was convicted, and Yan Qing was furious when he heard it, and reprimanded angrily: "I knew this was the case, what would I do to save this beast's family!" Innocent tired, my daimyo's mansion is missing the number one famous doctor! ”
Yan Qing drank three glasses of cold wine in a row, and then suppressed the nameless karmic fire in her heart, and said, "Brother, what should I do with Doctor Ma's suffering, Lord Lingtang's illness?" ”
"This is secondly, my mother has been much better after this period of treatment, and although the disease has not been broken, it will not recur immediately. However, Dr. Ma and my family have a great life-saving grace, and this time there is a disaster, and the younger brother can't stand idly by. Therefore, this time, I also have the meaning of saying goodbye to Xiao Yi! Xu Guanzhong got up and hugged his fists.
Yan Qing is a clever person, and he has been friends with Xu Guanzhong for many years, and when he heard him say this, he was not surprised, but he just got up and said: "There are many famous doctors in my city, and my brother still has a needle in his hand, and the old lady's illness is not incurable!" Doctor Ma's matter, we can think about it in the long run! Brother must not give away his innocent body like this! ”
"After Dr. Ma returned the needle score that day, I burned it, this is the secret of the divine doctor An Daoquan, and the grace father passed him on to me, which is already a great kindness, if I spread it widely, then what face do I have to trust this Xu Guanzhong?" Xu Guanzhong shook his head and said:
"Wang Wancang wants to kill Dr. Ma, there is almost no room for maneuver, if I am not forced to be helpless, I will not take this step. In any case, Doctor Ma, I am saved! ”
When Yan Qing heard this, seeing that things were obviously not something she could control, she immediately toasted Xu Guanzhong and said, "Tomorrow, the junior brother will wait for my brother outside the city!" ”
Xu Guanzhong expected that this brother would say this, and he was quite moved in his heart, but he smiled on his face, "Xiao Yi, it's just two dukes, are you afraid that I won't be able to take care of them?" ”
Yan Qing was full of emotion, and said, "Ten times more is not a brother's opponent!" It's just that the little brother is sitting at home, and his heart is uncomfortable! ”
"You are not ordinary with me, Lu Yuanwai treats you with kindness and reconstruction, there are not a few people in the city who spy on his wealth, and you are a confidant outside the staff, you are holding him in every move, you must not touch this matter!" Xu Guanzhong said in a firm tone.
Yan Qing sighed when she saw Xu Guanzhong mention Lu Junyi, and said helplessly: "I don't know where my family members are at this time, I hope that the white-clothed Xiushi will not embarrass him!" ”
"Xiao Yi rest assured, if the staff really goes to Liangshan, I dare to guarantee that there will be no risk! If Engong is a person who is willing to use poison schemes, when he was in the Daimyo's Mansion, he was afraid that the situation outside the staff would be unstable, and in addition, Suo Chao, the pioneer of urgency, had also fought with his general Lin Chong, and he had not seen him take this person away after that! It can be seen that he is not a person who ignores the wishes of others, if you still can't rest assured, just look at me, if he wants to force me up the mountain, why save people and send needles, and directly say that the cottage can cure my mother's illness, do you think I can not go? It's a shame that Tian Hu doesn't have the ability to be a good man, otherwise he ......"
Xu Guanzhong shook his head, thinking that if he hadn't met Wang Lun at the beginning, and if Tian Hu had sent someone to say that he could cure his mother's illness, would he have been kidnapped on his chariot in this life? As soon as he thought of this, Xu Guanzhong was a little afraid.
Yan Qing was persuaded by her confidant brother at this time, and felt much better, nodding and saying: "Borrow my brother's auspicious words, just ask for nothing to be extraneous again, and it is good for the staff to return early!" ”
Xu Guanzhong saw Yan Qing's pious appearance, and sighed in his heart, although Lu Junyi is invincible in Hebei, but his temperament is too noble, and he does not allow others to be disrespectful to him. If he falls into the hands of an enemy, but he is so tired that his brother runs for him.
Seeing that Xu Guanzhong was slightly distracted, Yan Qing asked: "Although the world is big, it is difficult to find a paradise, I don't know if my brother can think of a way out?" ”
Xu Guanzhong nodded solemnly, and did not say anything, only pointed his hand to the southeast, Yan Qing immediately changed color, and said, "Brother also wants to go to Liangshan?" ”
Xu Guanzhong nodded his head and said slowly: "Xiao Yi, in my life, I am about to disappear." In the past, when I was in the martial arts, I wanted to show my life's ambitions, but I didn't know that the world was miserable, corrupt officials and traitors controlled the government, and I struggled all my life, but I was just a dog with people! The whole world is the generation of Liang Zhongshu and Wang Zhifu, what ambitions do you have to talk about when you throw yourself into them? Speaking of this, Xu Guanzhong drank all the residual wine in his hand and said to Yan Qing:
"As you said, although the world is big, it is difficult to find a paradise! If I don't go to Yangshan, where else can I be cured of my mother's condition? It's good that Dr. Ma is willing to go with me at that time, but if not, I will go to Liangshan, where there is still a needle lineman An Shen Doctor in charge, and it will not delay my mother's condition. It's even more rare that I and Engong are quite compatible, don't you also say that I have a green breath between my eyebrows, and I don't know the blessings and misfortunes? In this way, we will see if he will be a blessing or a curse in the future! I saw Xu Guanzhong's expression resolute at this time, his eyes looked through the window, and he looked at the southeast for a long time. (To be continued......)
