"What are you talking about? Senior Qin Ke is dead?!"
Cui Yongfeng looked at his men in astonishment and disbelief.
"Not only Senior Qin Ke, but also the leader of the Iron Wolf Gang is dead. When my subordinates rushed to the Iron Wolf's mouth, all the members of the Iron Wolf Gang had already escaped. Young man, there is no Iron Wolf Gang anymore."
Cui Yongfeng suppressed the fear in his heart: "Is it Bai Yueguang's hand again?"
"It's not Bai Yueguang, it's a swordsman. Senior Qin Ke and the rest of the Iron Wolf Gang were all killed by a swordsman. They were all killed with one sword!"
Cui Yongfeng staggered and fell down on the chair.
First it was Bai Yueguang, and now here comes a ninth-level swordsman. What is the origin of Shennongtang?!
Just then Cui Hao walked in and looked at Cui Yongfeng with a serious face: "This is the end of the matter at Shennongtang. No more trouble is allowed."
This time, Cui Yongfeng lowered his head and did not dare to say anything.
Even if he was asked to find trouble now, he wouldn't dare to do so. It was very difficult to hire ninth-grade masters. His father had hired three ninth-grade masters to protect him because of his connections, but now he had lost one of them.
Rongcheng is located on the border, and the city was once raided by Beiyan. Here, even if his father is the commander, he is not that safe personally.
Senior Qin Ke is dead, and the other two seniors will definitely have some thoughts in their hearts, and they cannot be allowed to think about leaving.
Shennongtang...that's all, just let it go!
...
Li family.
The wound on Li Erya's arm was as long as a palm, and the bones were deep enough to see. Although Li Erya kept saying that it was okay, her face turned pale with pain, which still made Li Wuya look grim.
I thought that the Shennong Hall matter had been resolved, but I didn't expect that the Cui family would still insist on it.
It seems that the lesson given to the Cui family last time was not enough, otherwise, they would not have sent people to attack Jiubian Trading Company so soon.
Also, although Cui Yongfeng was poisoned last time, he took the antidote in less than a day. I guess he didn't suffer much and couldn't improve his memory!
"Sister, what are you thinking about? You are so lost in thought?"
"I'm thinking about how we can completely scare the Cui family so that they don't dare to touch Shennongtang and Shang Laojiu again." Li Wuya's eyes flashed, "I know what to do!"
Shennongtang will continue to operate in Rongcheng, so the Cui family cannot move, but to frighten them, they must be completely afraid.
The Cui family invited three ninth-grade masters. One died and two were left. If those two were gone, I think Mr. Cui would have clamped his tail between his legs and become a man.
"I heard that at the end of every month, the commander will go to the outside of the city to inspect. I think the two ninth-grade masters will accompany them. We have been practicing House of Flying Daggers for a while. Let's try the effect in a few days."
Five days later, when they saw the commander's carriage leaving the city gate, Li Wuya and Li Qilang immediately followed it.
...
Outside the city, in front of the Bibo Lake, accompanied by the melodious music of piano and flute, the fish in the lake jumped out of the water vying for each other.
When the commander's carriage arrived here, he couldn't help but stop when he saw this strange sight.
As soon as Cui Hao stepped out of the carriage, the soothing and melodious music of the piano and flute suddenly changed and became sharp and passionate. Those who heard it seemed to be instantly pulled into a battlefield surrounded by thousands of troops.
The two ninth-level masters guarding Cui Hao instantly became alert. While loudly asking the surrounding soldiers to escort Cui Hao away, they quickly flew towards the direction of the sound of the piano and flute on the other side of the lake.
"Zheng!"
A silent sound wave was ejected along with the fluctuation of the strings, passing through the water, and a blade-like ripple suddenly appeared on the water.
As soon as a Jiupin flew a few meters away from the shore, it met the ripples of the blade on the water surface in the blink of an eye.
"Pfft~"
The ninth-level master was hit by the sonic power, spurted out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, and then flew back like a sandbag.
Another ninth-level master saw him, his face was shocked, and he quickly stepped forward to catch him.
"withdraw!"
Just when the two were about to leave, the passionate sound of the flute followed.
In an instant, the two of them felt their hearts shaking and their blood surging. They covered their ears with all their strength while staggering away from the lake.
The sound of the piano and the flute got faster and faster, and just when the two ninth-level masters were about to lose their support, a group of iron cavalry suddenly appeared.
The sound of the piano and flute suddenly stopped!
"Walk!"
"What's wrong, sister, I'm so excited about playing?"
"Governor Cai and Zhuang Yutang are here."
"Why are they here?"
"If you ask me, who should I ask?"
When Governor Cai and Zhuang Yutang felt Bibo Lake, there was only a large area of fish with white bellies left on the lake.
Cui Hao, who was overly frightened and in shock, was helped over with a pale face. When he saw Governor Cai, he quickly bent down and thanked him: "Thank you for arriving in time, otherwise my life would have been decided here today.
"
Governor Cai frowned: "What's going on?"
Cui Hao was angry and angry: "I am in charge of the Duhu Mansion, and I offend many people on weekdays. Those people must want to kill me and silence me."
Hearing this, Governor Cai immediately became angry: "Who is so bold as to assassinate a high official of the imperial court?"
Zhuang Yutang looked at the bodyguards Cui Hao brought with him, then at the two ninth-grade masters, then stepped forward with a smile and said, "Today's matter is probably not directed at you, the Commander-in-Chief."
Cui Hao looked at Zhuang Yutang very dissatisfied: "I was almost killed, isn't this aimed at me?"
Governor Cai also looked puzzled, but soon a look of surprise appeared on his face. He pointed at the two ninth-grade masters and said, "Today's matter is aimed at these two."
The two ninth-level masters were stunned. How come they didn't know they had offended someone?
Governor Cai looked at Cui Hao: "You were hurt by the people under your command. The man who played the piano and flute mainly attacked the two of them."
Zhuang Yutang took the words: "And the person who made the move didn't do anything to kill him." As he said that, he looked at the two ninth-grade men with heavy hands and said with a smile, "I don't think you two should think carefully about whether you have had a conflict with anyone recently.
Since it’s not a life-and-death feud, it’s better to resolve it as soon as possible.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hearing these words, the two ninth-level masters were shocked, and Cui Hao's face turned even paler.
At this moment, he seemed to understand the intention of the person who took action. They were forcing the two ninth-grade masters to leave him!
In an instant, Cui Hao thought of Shennong Hall.
His son must have encouraged the Iron Wolf Gang to arrest Shang Laojiu and the others, which angered the people behind Shennong Hall!
When he thought of this, the two ninth-grade masters naturally thought of it too, their expressions suddenly darkened, and they both lowered their heads and stopped looking at Cui Hao.
Seeing this, Cui Hao's heart dropped.
Without the protection of a ninth-grade master, his safety would be greatly reduced.
Shennongtang... Originally he had settled the matter, why are they still holding on to him?!
Cui Hao felt a surge of anger in his heart. Thinking of the pills sold by Shennongtang, he immediately said to Governor Cai: "Sir, I recently found a pill sold in a drug store, which is very suitable for military officers. However, the owner of the store is very difficult to talk to.
.”
Since he has no choice but to go to Shennongtang, what about Governor Cai?
Behind Governor Cai is the current emperor. He wants to see if Governor Cai is interested in Shennongtang's pills, will Shennongtang dare to become an enemy of Governor Cai?!
Governor Cai was very concerned about matters related to the soldiers and immediately began to inquire in detail.
Cui Hao immediately told Shennongtang and emphasized the efficacy and convenience of the pills, which made Governor Cai very excited.
Zhuang Yutang listened on the side and frowned when he saw Cui Hao's angry expression. He waited until he was separated from Cui Hao before saying to Governor Cai:
"Sir, the Cui family and his son are domineering people, so you can't believe everything they say!"
Governor Cai smiled: "I still don't know what Cui Hao is thinking. Don't worry, I will send someone to make a good investigation. Even if the pills from Shennongtang are really useful to the soldiers, I will not take them by force."
.”
Zhuang Yutang smiled: "It is a blessing for the people in the border areas that the emperor has sent you to the northwest to preside over military affairs."
Governor Cai laughed: "Okay, stop flattering me."
After entering Rongcheng, Governor Cai immediately sent someone to dispatch Shennong Hall.
It was clearly discovered when Shennongtang was opened and how it was closed down later.
"This Shennongtang has some background. I heard that Cui Hao's son was poisoned that night when Shennongtang was closed down."
"The two people playing the piano and flute today are probably related to Shennong Hall."
Zhuang Yutang sneered: "The Cui family and his son fell in love with Shennongtang's pills and wanted to keep them for themselves. Unexpectedly, they kicked the iron plate this time."
Although there was a reason for the incident, Governor Cai still had a bad impression of Shennongtang: "Well, fortunately they still have some sense of restraint and did not really take action against the court officials. The court officials have bad conduct and will be investigated by the court. It is not their turn.
Come and punish!"
Zhuang Yutang looked at the pill in his hand, thought for a moment and said, "Sir, this pill is indeed useful to the army officers and soldiers. Do you want me to make a trip to Shennong Hall?"
Governor Cai nodded: "That's fine. You, the general of Dieling Pass, will go there in person. It will give Shennong Hall a lot of face. If they are easy to talk to, then they will act according to the rules and we will not squeeze them."
Zhuang Yutang nodded and went to Shennong Hall that day.
As soon as people arrived at Shennong Hall, Shang Laojiu greeted them warmly.
Zhuang Yutang looked at Shang Laojiu with a smile, exchanged a few words of greetings, and then went straight to the topic: "Isn't your master here?"
Shang Laojiu shook his head: "General, please forgive me, my master likes to specialize in medical skills, but now he is looking for medicinal materials all over the mountains."
Zhuang Yutang played with a bunch of pills: "The pills you sell are very suitable for military generals. The Governor asked me to come over and ask if you are willing to provide medicine for military generals?"
Shang Laojiu immediately said: "Of course I am willing, General, it is Shennong Hall's honor to be able to provide pills to the officers and soldiers."
Zhuang Yutang did not expect that Shang Laojiu agreed immediately: "Why don't you ask your master for instructions?"
Shang Laojiu smiled and shook his head: "No, to tell you the truth, long before opening Shennongtang, my master had said that he would provide pills for military officers. But I didn't expect that the drug store would be closed down just a few days after it opened."
"After we found out the reason, my master was a little angry, so the matter was delayed."
"General, my master admires the soldiers who protect our country very much. He has already ordered me to give a 50% discount on everything the army needs."
This was really an unexpected surprise. Zhuang Yutang did not expect that the people behind Shennong Hall would be so reasonable. After meeting Governor Cai, he repeated Shang Laojiu's words.
Governor Cai also looked surprised.
Seeing that Cui Hao was also there, Zhuang Yutang said again: "Shang Laojiu said that Shennongtang wants to open a shop and sell medicine in peace and quiet. He said that there was some misunderstanding with the commander-in-chief of the capital and he wanted me to persuade him to reconcile."
"This matter has passed long ago, I don't even remember it!"
Cui Hao smiled stiffly. He didn't expect that Shennongtang would be so talkative. He would sell medicine at a 50% discount. This was half sale and half free. If he knew that Shennongtang respected the soldiers so much, he would never let his son offend anyone.
Well now, one of the three ninth-grade masters in the family died, and the other two were forced to leave. However, Shennongtang has reached a cooperation with Governor Cai, and he has become a complete clown!
Seeing Cui Hao leave with an ugly expression, Zhuang Yutang sneered: "When the commander returns, he will be so ruined that his intestines will turn blue."
"By the way, sir, Shang Laojiu also told me that Shennongtang also wants to open branches in other border towns, saying that he wants more people to see doctors and take medicine."
"Like roundworm pills, he said that when Shennongtang is up and running, he will give them to the people for free to prevent them from getting worms in their stomachs."
Governor Cai was really surprised: "The person behind Shennongtang is so righteous. I misunderstood him before and thought he was an arrogant person."
Zhuang Yutang smiled: "I guess the Cui family and his son went too far."
...
Chiang Mansion.
Jiang Sheng took the information he had found and hurriedly entered Jiang Antai's study: "Master, I have found out that Li Changsen's family is now in Rongcheng."
Jiang Antai's expression changed, and he asked in confusion: "How come the whole family is here? Isn't Li Changsen at Dieling Pass?"
Jiang Sheng sighed: "Sir, Li Changsen risked his life to burn the Beiyan army's food and grass in order to change the military household registration."
"What?!"
Jiang Antai stood up abruptly: "Did he also participate in the burning of Beiyan's army's food and grass?"
Jiang Sheng nodded heavily: "Fortunately, Li Changsen gave birth to two good sons and ventured deep into the rear of Beiyan to rescue Li Changsen from the dead. Otherwise..."
Having said this, Jiang Sheng was silent for a moment, and then he mustered up the courage to look at Jiang Antai: "Master, Li Changsen is the third girl's biological son, do we really not tell her?"
"Now the Li family is all in Rongcheng. In order to make a living, Li Changsen and his eldest son are traveling around as escorts. Sir, bandits are rampant at the border, and escorts are very dangerous. Last time Li Changsen was lucky, but next time..."
"Master, I'm really afraid that he has a third wife, and we won't be able to explain it to the third girl in the future!"
Jiang Antai was also confused: "Let me think about it, let me think about it..."
At this moment, Mrs. Jiang's voice sounded outside the door: "Second brother, why don't you come in? Isn't your eldest brother here?"
Hearing the sound, Jiang Antai and Jiang Sheng's expressions suddenly changed. Jiang Sheng quickly walked to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Jiang Anbang, who looked shocked and shocked.
