"I'm just afraid that it will disturb the Lord's official business."
"Oh...it doesn't matter...what's the business then?"
Gao Qian smiled heartily, stepped forward and grabbed Nan Yanxi's arm: "Let's go, let's go..."
"It's already dinner time. We're just getting together. Young Master, don't refuse any more."
Seeing this, Nan Yanxi had to pretend to agree, turned to Nangong Ruoxue and Lu Yingying and ordered: "Second, second and third, you take the servants back and arrange the work."
"My husband and Jingmo are getting together with Mr. Gao."
"It's...husband...!"
Of course the two women knew how to cooperate with him in front of outsiders. They nodded in agreement and saluted Gao Qian.
Then he took the lead to go back with all the servants.
Seeing this, Gao Qian couldn't help but exclaimed: "Young hero, you are so lucky. The three ladies are not only virtuous, but also so beautiful."
"It's not an exaggeration to say that an immortal descended to earth. The young hero is so lucky, hahaha..."
"Your Excellency, you are so complimentary..."
The two of them greeted each other politely and headed towards Gao Qian's mansion.
After walking slowly for about one stick of incense, we arrived at Gao Qian's mansion.
After all, he is a court official, so the construction style of his mansion is naturally different from the elegant small garden in Nan Yanxi.
It is very similar to the Beijing-style mansions in China in previous lives, with a tall and grand door and similarly grand concierges on both sides.
Red courtyard walls, yellow glazed tiles, tall steps flanked by majestic stone lions.
Several guards and servants stood at the door, standing majestically.
"Come on, come on... Young hero, please... Young hero, please..."
Gao Qian looked happy and pulled Nan Yanxi towards the mansion.
Inside the door, the housekeeper came out quickly with a look of concern on his face: "Master... I heard that you were frightened when you sat down on your horse today."
"Is the master injured?"
"Oh...it doesn't matter...thanks to this little brother, there is no danger...hahaha..."
Gao Qian said with a smile: "Go and prepare a good banquet. I and the young hero are going to have a good drink."
"Okay, okay..." The housekeeper agreed and gave Nan Yanxi a deep bow.
"Thank you so much, young hero, thank you so much, young hero..."
Then he turned around and left, ordering his servants to prepare a banquet and serve delicious dishes.
One is to thank Nan Yanxi for taking action, and the other is to calm Gao Qian's shock.
Gao Qian pulled Nan Yanxi into the main hall and offered her a seat.
He turned to the servant and said, "Where is Madam? Come quickly and invite Madam."
"Yes! Master!"
The servant agreed and turned around to go out.
It didn't take much time to hear jingling bells on the outside of the house. Nan Yanxi heard the sound and looked around.
I saw a beautiful woman slowly walking in from the door.
From the looks of it, he must be somewhere around thirty-seven, or at most forty-one or two.
With jingle rings and bells all over his body, it would be no exaggeration to describe him as graceful and luxurious.
Looking at her appearance, it is not difficult to see that she was also a first-class beauty when she was young.
Fair face, high nose.
The eyes are as bright as stars, but they have a hint of charm with age.
There are slight wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, but they still look charming.
Every frown and every smile shows a mature charm, just like the ripe peach on the treetops.
As long as you touch it slightly, honey will immediately splash out.
It made Nan Yanxi's heart tremble, what a mature and beautiful aunt!
On the woman's pretty cheeks, the red lips were slightly opened, and she slowly bowed to everyone: "Master..."
"I've seen the young hero..."
Nan Yanxi and Li Jingmo quickly stood up and saluted the beautiful woman: "I have met Madam."
"Hahaha...don't be polite, we are all family members."
Gao Qian laughed loudly and stretched out his hand to call: "Come on, come on... Madam, please take a seat."
"My husband was in danger today, thanks to this young hero for saving me. Otherwise... you would have been a widow!"
"Bah, bah, bah...what nonsense!"
When the beautiful woman heard this, she immediately refused to comply. She rolled her eyes and said coquettishly: "You are talking nonsense like this, and I am going to get angry!"
"Okay, okay... Madam taught me a lesson!"
Gao Qian laughed happily, and his long goatee also trembled.
Then the three of them introduced each other.
Only then did Nan Yanxi know that this beautiful woman's maiden name was Lin Yu'er, and her maiden family was from Qingzhou, Daxia.
When I heard that Nan Yanxi was also from Yuzhou, which was not far away, I felt even more friendly.
Everyone was polite and chatting away.
After a while, delicacies from all over the world were slowly placed on the table, and after a while it was almost impossible to place them anymore.
Gao Qian even ordered his servants to bring out the fine wine that he had collected for many years, intending to get drunk with Nan Yanxi.
"Young hero... you are young and promising! With superb martial arts skills, you are truly a talented person at that time."
Everyone clinked a glass, and Gao Qian sighed quietly: "I miss my treacherous son, who is only a few years younger than the young hero."
"I have no knowledge and skills all day long. I only know how to cause trouble for me."
After saying that, he sighed heavily: "His mother died early because I was too doting on him and developed his lawless character."
Nan Yanxi was stunned when he heard this: "Uh... die early? Then..."
"Ah... there's nothing hard to say." Gao Qian said cheerfully: "His mother passed away early, so Yu'er will be replaced by me."
Hearing this, Nan Yanxi nodded: "I see..."
The four of them immediately exchanged glasses and chatted with each other, enjoying the wine and the five dishes!
The four of them were chatting lively when a servant suddenly barged in outside the door.
When Gao Qian saw this, he was immediately unhappy: "What's the matter? Didn't you see that I have guests here?"
The servant shrank his head and said, "Sir, it's our guests' business."
"In the Young Hero's Mansion, the following people came here in a hurry. It seems they have something urgent to do to see the Young Hero!"
"Huh?" Nan Yanxi was stunned for a moment, and Gao Qian hurriedly said: "Then call in quickly."
"yes!"
The servant agreed, turned around and ran out.
It didn't take much effort, so I carried the old man to the lobby.
Nan Yanxi took a look and saw that this person had just been hired back as a housekeeper and his surname was Qian.
"Mr. Qian...what's wrong with you?"
The old man took a few breaths frantically, and then said anxiously: "Master, please go back and take a look."
"Someone with dozens of thugs is fighting against the second lady and the third lady in our yard!"
"What!" Nan Yanxi stood up immediately after hearing this.
Also standing up was Gao Qian, who was already a little drunk at this time. He shouted angrily with the help of wine: "Who is so bold?"
"Dare you bully the young hero's wife? Is there any royal method?"
"Uh..." As soon as he said this, Mr. Qian immediately faltered.
Seeing this, Nan Yanxi naturally understood.
The person causing trouble is most likely Gao Xiaofan.
Although he was worried about the safety of the two girls, he secretly thought that it would be just right for his father to know.
So he deliberately pretended to be anxious and frowned: "What's going on? Tell me quickly!"
Qian Laonai is a local, and of course he knows that Gao Xiaofan is Gao Qian's son.
Seeing Nan Yanxi's face, I can roughly understand it.
So he bowed deeply to Gao Qian and said in panic: "Uh... the person taking the lead is Mr. Ling, Gao Xiaofan and Gao Yanei."
As soon as these words came out, Gao Qian was stunned for a moment, and he almost woke up from the wine in an instant.
Feeling the strange looks from Nan Yanxi and Lao Qian, I felt my old face getting hot.
"This traitor...this traitor...!"
Gao Qian slapped the table so hard that his beard almost flew out.
First, he smiled apologetically at Nan Yanxi: "Don't be anxious, young hero, I will capture that traitor right away."
After saying that, he took two steps towards the door and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
In just a moment, dozens of servants gathered in front of the door.
Gao Qian shouted angrily: "When I see that traitor later, I will tie him up immediately and beat him severely!"
Then he turned around and said apologetically to Nan Yanxi: "Young hero, I still don't know where your residence is."
"Please young hero, please lead the way!"
Seeing this, Nan Yanxi secretly laughed in her heart, I'm afraid you are very familiar with this place.
He hurriedly took two steps forward and raised his hands to Gao Qian: "Then I'll trouble you, sir!"
"Everyone, follow me!"
"yes!"
A large group of people rushed towards Nan Yanxi's yard.
...
At this time, Nan Yanxi's garden was in a mess.
Nangong Ruoxue was protecting Lu Yingying behind her, with their backs leaning against the rockery, and their long swords dancing like snowflakes in front of them.
Although he didn't kill anyone, what he held in his hand was a sharp weapon after all.
After a while, seven or eight strong men appeared in front of them, holding their bleeding wounds and wailing.
Lu Yingying, who was relatively weak in martial arts, hid behind Nangong Ruoxue, holding a sword to protect her.
Gao Xiaofan, who had two dark circles under his eyes, was hiding behind the thugs and shouting.
