"Young man Lu Qian, I have met the master, I have met the master Zhou!"
A fair-faced, slightly bearded, seemingly honest middle-aged man entered the room. He first bowed respectfully to Huang Shang and Zhou Tong.
This man was dressed in the uniform of a low-level military attache, with a waist knife hanging under his left rib, and his whole body was neatly and meticulously groomed.
Huang Shang held up the long beard on his chest and asked with a smile: "Lu Qian, now that you have served in the Taiwei's mansion, it is better to meet each other with the old etiquette."
Lu Qian stood up and said solemnly: "What are you talking about? If I hadn't taught the villain martial arts and wrote a letter recommending the villain to the capital, where would the villain's current meager future come from? Besides, even though the villain is worried about danger, The title candidate is actually just an idler in the Taiwei's mansion, and I would never dare to show off in front of the master."
Seeing how humble and polite this man was, Huang Shang found him particularly pleasing to the eye, and then asked with a smile: "You came here specially to find me in Dong Lao's place, but what's the matter?"
Lu Qian hesitated for a moment and glanced at Master and Disciple Hu Huan intentionally or unintentionally.
Huang Shang waved his hand and said: "This Taoist priest Hu Yuan is an expert outside the world. Even if he has any secrets, he will not leak them out. There is no need to avoid them."
When Lu Qian heard this, he hurriedly saluted Hu Yuan again, and then said: "This villain is here on the orders of Captain Gao, asking the master to come over and treat Gao Yanei, his adopted son."
Huang Shang frowned and said: "If Gao Yanei suffers from a serious and complicated disease, he should ask a doctor. With Gao Taiwei's reputation, it is not difficult to ask the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital to take action. Why do you want to ask me?" "
Lu Qian smiled bitterly and said: "If you are sick, naturally you don't dare to trouble the master, but based on what I know, the yamen may be plotted by a top master.
"The Yameni was kidnapped by bandits a few days ago, and he was rescued today. After returning home, the Yameni felt that something was wrong with his body. It seemed that he was... suddenly inhumane. The Taiwei also found several famous doctors to come to the clinic for treatment, but... I can't even figure out the reason.
"Later, I still felt something was strange, so I tried to use my true energy to explore, and found that there was an extremely weird true energy entrenched in the dantian of the lower abdomen of the Yamen. This true energy not only reaches the yin and cold, but also locks the yang energy in the Yameni body. It cannot arouse desires, and it is constantly devouring the vitality in Ya Nei's body to strengthen itself. If this situation continues, not only will Ya Nei's hidden illness be difficult to cure, but it may also endanger life.
"The villain tried to get rid of that trace of true energy again, but the true energy was very strange, seeming to exist between existence and non-existence. The villain's true energy could not touch it at all, let alone drive it away. Because the Taiwei was pressing hard, the villain In my hesitation, I suddenly heard someone say that the master has arrived in the capital, so I had no choice but to report it to the Taiwei, in order to trouble the master to take action."
Huang Shang was silent after hearing this.
He came from a serious official career and had never looked down upon those who were lucky enough to advance like Gao Qiu. He had vaguely heard of Gao Yanei's actions, so he was a little reluctant to pay attention to such disgusting things.
It's just that Gao Qiu already knew that he might be able to save his son. If he didn't take this trip, he would definitely be resented by him.
The two have different paths in culture and martial arts. Gao Qiu may not be able to win over him, but he will definitely vent his anger on Lu Qian. For the sake of this anonymous disciple, he had no choice but to pinch his nose.
Thinking of this, he finally nodded to Lu Qian to express his agreement.
"Thank you sir for understanding the little man's difficulties!"
Lu Qian was overjoyed to thank him, and said that he knew that Huang Shang agreed to this matter all for his own sake, and his thoughts were really exquisite.
Then he turned to Zhou Tong and said, "If Mr. Zhou is fine, it's best to come with him."
Zhou Tong was stunned for a moment and said, "What did I do in the past?"
Lu Qian said helplessly: "Brother Lin was the one who rescued Ya Nei from the bandits this time, but he left before escorting Ya Nei. It happened that Ya Nei was tricked after he left..."
Zhou Tong's expression changed, knowing that Gao Qiu would never be grateful to Lin Chong for rescuing his son, but would only resent him for not protecting his son well.
The only plan for now is to follow Huang Shang to Taiwei's Mansion as Lu Qian said, and make some efforts to save Gao Yanei, hoping to eliminate this hidden danger for his disciples.
At that time, Huang Shang and Zhou Tong confessed to Hu Yuan and prepared to go out with Lu Qian.
Hu Yuan smiled and said, "You and I have nothing to do. If you two don't give up, I'm willing to go with you."
Both Huang Shang and Zhou Tong were aware of his inscrutable nature. They thought that with him accompanying them, they would be more sure of success, so they did not refuse.
Here Lu Qian hurriedly led the way to the Taiwei's Mansion. Over there, Gao Yameni had already caused a huge commotion in the Taiwei's Mansion.
In Gao Yanei's bedroom, the floor was full of smashed porcelain and jade. A group of Gao Qiu's wives and concubines gathered around the bed and asked Gao Yanei, while Gao Qiu sat aside with a livid face.
"Dad, you must save me this time!"
Gao Yanei pushed away the beautiful woman next to him who was the aunt of his house, rolled down from the bed, threw himself at Gao Qiu's feet, hugged his thigh and cried bitterly.
"If the child can no longer become a man, our Gao family... will be extinct!"
"If you are really useless, the worst I can do is adopt another son from the clan!"
Gao Qiu felt cruel in his heart, but he couldn't bear it after all.
He was the most mean-spirited and ungrateful person, but he had some father-son affection for this little bastard who was a brother of the same clan but insisted on adopting him as his son.
The reason is probably that this kid really looks a lot like himself when he was a gangster. The only difference was that I didn't have a powerful father to support me back then, so I really suffered a lot.
Seeing Gao Qiu's gloomy face and not responding to him, Gao Yamen couldn't help but feel a little panicked. He hurriedly stopped crying and said meekly: "My child also knows that he was too ridiculous in the past. As long as he is in good health, he will change his mind and be down-to-earth. Marry more wives and concubines on the spot to continue the family lineage of our Gao family."
Gao Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He spat and cursed: "Bah, you know you only have this ability!"
Seeing that Gao Qiu was willing to speak, Gao Yanei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then he felt endless hatred. Although the evil thief who secretly harmed him could not be found, he had a ready target to vent his anger on: "Dad, this time you We must not spare Lin Chong. If he had not left early, the child would not have been plotted against!"
Gao Qiu did not respond, but there was a chill in his eyes.
He already knew that Lin Chong was driven away after being humiliated by his son, but he did not think it was his son's fault.
In his opinion, since I have entrusted you with rescuing my son, Lin Chong, you should escort your son back to me from beginning to end. I suffered some grievances along the way, and I will naturally make amends afterwards. Such behavior of abandoning one's choice and leaving is too disrespectful to take me, the lieutenant who holds the power of the imperial army, seriously!
Gao Qiu was able to rise from a street gangster to his current high position. Although there were many opportunities and encounters, it was also due to his own scheming. Therefore, he just remembered this matter in his heart, but did not express it in words.
At this moment, someone outside the door reported: "Sir, Marquis Lu Yu is back!"
Gao Qiu became energetic and said hurriedly: "Ask him to come in quickly!"
