Half River Autumn Moon and River Spring [Rat and Cat]

Kaifeng House.

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went out, Master Bao also went to court, Gongsun felt that it was rare to be quiet today, and was about to play with the flower seeds that Bai Jintang sent, when suddenly he heard very loud crying from outside the door, Gongsun Xindao listened to the movement, it seemed that there were a lot of people, crying so fiercely so early in the morning, could it be that they came to seek justice from Mr. Bao?

Just as he was thinking about it, there seemed to be some conflict at the door. There was a continuous stream of abuse and drinking, and the servants in the mansion rushed to the door to help. ?So he put down the work at hand and walked towards the door. As he was approaching the main entrance, he saw Chao Chao running in with a look of distress and fastening the door firmly. After closing the door, Wang Chao saw Gongsun walking towards the door and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Sir, Sir, don't come here, there is noise outside, it's too dangerous!"

Gongsun frowned and said, "What's the matter? Why did you get into trouble here?"

"This... this..." Wang Chao pressed his back against the door tightly, and squatted there forcefully, as if he was afraid that someone from outside the door would force his way in.

Seeing Chao Chao's unspeakable appearance, Gongsun realized that the matter was not that simple, so he planned to go out to find out what happened. When Wang Chao saw Gongsun Ce walking towards him, he became anxious, and was about to speak, when suddenly there was someone outside the door. The man roared loudly: "Gongsun Ce, you goddamn quack, you paid my mother back!!"

listen to this voice...

"Zhong Shiping?" Gongsun asked in surprise, "What's wrong with his mother?" Obviously the old lady's illness has improved a few days ago, how could it be...

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Wang Chao could only sigh and said: "The old lady has passed away. The Zhong family brought 43 people from the whole family to carry the old lady's coffin to our door. I must ask you to give me an explanation."

"Impossible, I checked the old lady's body before she left, and she has almost recovered..." As he said that, he was about to open the door, but when Wang Chao blocked him, Gongsun said urgently, "Get out of the way!"

The people outside the door heard someone talking inside the door, and the shouting became louder for a while.

"Sir, the group of people outside are too fierce, and there are so many people, it's unreasonable, and the name-calling is just to trouble you. If you go out, won't you be taken as a living target by them?"

"Will you let it?"

Wang Chao wiped off his sweat and saw Gongsun's firm attitude. He knew that the door would not be opened today, so he had no choice but to be ruthless. However, he had already planned in his heart that if this group of people rushed to smash Mr., he would be the first one. Get in front of Mr.

The door was slowly opened, outside the door dozens of people dressed in linen and straw sandals stood angrily at the door with filial sticks in their hands, and there was a large crowd pointing and watching, when seeing Gongsun going out, the leader Zhong Shiping shouted, Pointing at Gongsun, he yelled, "This is that quack doctor, that's him! He killed my mother!"

A group of people heard the words and were about to get angry when they saw Gongsun standing there, raised his head slightly and said, "Zhong Shiping, when the old lady left our Kaifeng mansion, she didn't dare to say that she was alive and kicking, but at least she could say that she could eat and drink." If you can go to the ground, you carry the coffin to block the door and say that I am a quack doctor, do you not take the word Kaifeng Mansion seriously?"

Zhong Shiping was taken aback for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Gongsun Ce to move Kaifeng mansion out of the first sentence, the meaning couldn't be more clear, you have no evidence, you dare to come to Kaifeng mansion to make a noise, in broad daylight, brighten the world, aren't you stupid?

After a while, seeing that everyone was looking at him, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "It is true that my mother's condition improved before she left, but after she returned, the chickenpox on her body grew like crazy, her face, hands On the legs, on the whole body! My mother said that the whole body was itchy, and the itching was unbearable, but the chickenpox would burst when it was scratched, and pus would flow out when it broke. Our whole family took turns guarding her from scratching, but After all, my mother is so old, how can she stand up to such a toss... within a few days, just..."

Zhong Shiping wiped away his tears and said, "Tell me, if you hadn't been mistaken by a quack doctor, how could my mother have died so miserably?"

Gongsun said: "After you go back, did you follow my instructions and give the old lady the medicine on time?"

"That's natural. I dare not neglect it at all, but after taking the medicine, it gets worse."

Gongsun nodded: "It's useless to say anything now. You leave the old lady behind. Only by opening the coffin for an autopsy can the real cause of death of the old lady be found out."

When it came to opening the coffin for an autopsy, the Zhong family was suddenly enraged: "The old man is already in such a miserable state, you quack doctor wants to destroy her body?"

"Yes, yes, you are the instigator, even if you are asked to perform an autopsy, there is no guarantee that you will not do something to escape the crime!"

"So what about the Kaifeng Mansion, it is unacceptable to take human life, the quack doctor will die, the quack doctor will die!"

……

Dozens of people suddenly became emotional, and the yamen servants at the gate stopped the crowd one after another. Wang Chao and Ma Han hurriedly guarded Gongsun Ce. The Zhong family saw that the Kaifeng mansion was protecting Gongsun Ce, and someone picked up a stone and threw it at Gongsun. The stone was about to hit Gongsun's forehead, suddenly several men in white clothes descended from the sky, the leader swung his sword and separated the stone that hit Gongsun and bounced back towards the stone thrower.

The stone-throwing man was hit on the front door all of a sudden, and blood flowed from his forehead in an instant. When the Zhong family saw that their own people were injured, they all shouted: "Kaifeng Mansion is going to kill people! Kaifeng Mansion is going to kill people!"

The leading man in white said coldly: "See clearly, the ones who beat you are members of our Yelan Gang, and have nothing to do with Kaifeng Mansion. If you dare to disrespect Mr. Gongsun again, you will all be killed."

The attitude of the man in white stunned the Zhong family. The famous leader of the Yelan gang, even an ordinary person who does not go out of the rivers and lakes, is like thunder, and the leader of the Yelan gang, Bai Jintang, is even more capable. Who can live impatiently How dare you offend the Yelan gang?

Zhong Shiping naturally knew the background of the Yelan Gang, seeing the hesitant formation, he hesitated to speak, a middle-aged woman suddenly pulled him away behind him, and said in a loud voice: "I don't care if you can help me or not. If you want to kill the old lady at the gate of the Kaifeng mansion, otherwise you will lose money, the old lady's life is not for nothing, even if you sue the emperor, I will not be afraid!"

Zhong Shiping hastily grabbed the woman, trying to get her to stop talking. The woman opened Zhong Shiping's hand and continued: "Zhong Shiping, are you a fucking man? You don't get to the point for a long time. My old lady married You are really blind! The old woman is dead, and you ask them what nonsense they want to say, just a word, how much does this trash doctor pay for killing people?"

Seeing the woman making noise, the man in white was about to raise his sword, but Gongsun held him back and shook his head, "Don't hurt anyone."

The man in white put away his sword, bowed his hands to Gongsun and said, "Whatever you want, sir, I will wait for you."

Gongsun said: "Let them keep the old lady. After I investigate, I will naturally give them an explanation."

"it is good."

The man in white turned around and said to Zhong's family: "If you want to survive, leave the coffin, or I will send you to the coffin to accompany the old lady."

Chao Mahan on the side looked at each other in blank dismay. He was indeed the eldest brother of the Bai family, and his threatening tone was not negotiable.

Zhong Shiping's wife still wanted to speak, but was held down by several brothers of the Zhong family: "Sister-in-law, the Yelan gang can't afford to offend them. They really dare to kill people, and the government can't do anything about them. Don't hurt us."

Seeing the crowd pull the woman away, Zhong Shiping took the opportunity to say: "Gongsun Ce, you have Yelan's support today, we have nothing to do with you, my mother's coffin is left here, if you dare to do anything, our Zhong family will be there The lives of 43 people will not make it easy for you! We will come back tomorrow, if you don't give an explanation, don't blame us for spreading the 'good reputation' of your Kaifeng mansion!"

Those onlookers in Kaifeng Mansion started discussing: "What are you talking about? Isn't it just to cheat money?"

"That's right, it shows how filial I am, and I just want to extort money for a long time."

"Tsk tsk, to actually extort money and come to Kaifeng mansion, what a talent."

"I've seen the old lady. Mr. Gongsun cured her, and he was very grateful when he left!"

……

Zhong Shiping heard the words of the people around him, and he couldn't hold back his face. He turned around and scratched the back of his neck, and waved his family to leave impatiently.

Gongsun stared at Zhong Shiping's back for a moment, and Wang Chao asked, "Sir, shall we carry the coffin in first?"

Gongsun came to his senses, nodded, and Wang Chao ordered his subordinates to go to work.After the dynasty left, Gongsun frowned looking at the direction Zhong Shiping left. The man in white saw that something was wrong with Gongsun and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"

Gongsun shook his head and said: "I guess I was wrong. By the way, I haven't thanked you for your help. I don't know their names?"

The man in white clasped his hands and said, "Next is Yelan Gang Yanqi, these two are Yanliu and Yanwu, who were ordered to protect Mr. Gongsun."

"Order?" Gongsun thought for a while, "It was Yan Bei who came to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang before, and also yours? Did they all follow Bai Jintang's order?"

"Exactly." Yan Qi didn't elaborate, in fact they are the backbone of the elite Yan Lanjian of the Yelan Gang. Yan Si, Yan Sang, Yan Shuang, and Yan Yi are all peerless masters of martial arts, and they never take action easily. This time, in order to protect Gongsun, Bai Jintang actually dispatched three Yan envoys at once. Feel very surprised.

"Why did Bai Jintang go out of his way to protect me?"

"The head of the family said that it has been a troubled time recently, and Mr. Zhan and the young master are not in the Kaifeng mansion. They are afraid that someone will do harm to Mr. Gongsun. Let me wait in secret to protect and show up if necessary."

"Since that's the case, I won't be polite to you guys. You have also seen that Zhong Shiping's matter is very strange, and Zhan Zhao and the others are not here. To be honest, Kaifeng Mansion is indeed short of manpower. Can you help us investigate?"

Yan Qi nodded and said: "It's simple, I just saw Mr. Zhong Shiping staring at Zhong Shiping's back in a daze, do you have any doubts?"

Gongsun sighed in his heart, where did Bai Jintang find such a transparent person, everyone is a treasure!Chao Mahan, who had been with him for many years, didn't see his doubts. This person only stayed with him for a while before he realized that being with this kind of person is simply getting twice the result with half the effort!

"To be honest, it's strange to say this. I saw the old woman's illness a few days ago. Logically speaking, it's not an epidemic. It's just that I just saw that Zhong Shiping scratched the back of his neck. Although it wasn't obvious, the back of his neck It seems that there is a rash, and it is too far away, and I am not sure about the students, I want a few people to help confirm it." Gongsun paused, and said with a serious expression, "If Zhong Shiping really has a rash, please help Let's see, do other members of the Zhong family also suffer from this disease?"
