Yi Song

Chapter 59 Gao Qiu, are you a chamber pot?

Liu Guozhang slapped his forehead, "Yes, does what I said have anything to do with Captain Gao?"

He looked at Murong Shisan, leaned his upper body forward and asked, "Housemaster, do you think this has anything to do with Captain Gao?"

Murong Shisan turned around and replied nonchalantly: "Maybe it has something to do with it, maybe it doesn't matter."

Liu Guozhang slapped his thigh and said, "The hospital master is absolutely right. Whether it matters or not depends on what everyone thinks. Gao Taiwei, do you think the common people are right?"

Captain Gao did not answer, but knocked on the table three times.

"Duh-duh!"

The door opened, and an attendant cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Lang, please give me your instructions."

"Serve the food quickly."

"Yes."

The two fire masters served six dishes, two soups, and a pot of stuffed osmanthus.

The dishes are steamed goose and duck steak, rabbit with green onions, fried quail, fried clams, perilla fish, and velvet cut meat. The soups are Baiwei soup and Qunxian soup. The aroma is fragrant and pleasing to the eye, making you feel appetizing before eating.

"Lieutenant Gao is too polite. Knowing that Erlang comes from a poor family, it is really expensive to serve so many good dishes!"

Gao Qiu remained silent. After everyone in the Huo family left, he ordered: "Close the door and retreat to the passage. No one is allowed to approach."

"Yes!"

Liu Guozhang took the chopsticks and gave Murong Thirteen two pieces of meat, two pieces of fish, and a quail leg.

Giving food to a girl is the most basic etiquette for a gentleman.

Murong Shisan blinked rapidly several times. Seeing Liu Guozhang's calm and natural demeanor, his heart moved and he slowly calmed down.

Gao Qiu turned around and saw Liu Guozhang standing up to pick up the food. Murong Shisan took it calmly and was stunned for a moment, with his mouth slightly open, not knowing what to say.

He coughed twice and said politely: "Emperor Ji, please don't dislike me for being a humble person."

"I'm just here to eat. This dish is rich enough." Murong Shisan glanced at Liu Guozhang, picked up the chopsticks, picked up the dishes Liu Guozhang put in the bowl, and ate in small bites.

Gao Qiu was a little at a loss, so he quickly picked up the tea cup and took a sip. But the water was a bit hot, which made his mouth and throat hurt.

But it was hard to cough it up, so I had to hold my throat and hold it in until my face turned red and purple.

"Lieutenant, what's wrong with you? Are you choking?" Liu Guozhang asked.

Gao Qiu said nothing and just waved his hands.

"I'm really choking! I'm going to die." Liu Guozhang was shocked, stood up quickly, stood behind Gao Qiu, hugged his waist, dragged him out of the seat, and prepared to perform the Heimlich maneuver.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Gao Qiu struggled desperately, but Liu Guozhang's arms were like iron rings and he couldn't break free no matter what. He hurriedly said hoarsely, "I drank tea too hard and it burned me."

"Ah, it's Meng Lang, a common man." Liu Guozhang hurriedly helped Gao Qiu back to his seat, "I saw the lieutenant holding his throat, his face turned red and purple, and I thought he had choked on something. This is not a small matter, it is easy. He lost his life, so he wanted to use the secret method he learned from the barbarians to save him."

Murong Shisan looked at the two of them with twinkling eyes, "Well, I heard from several imperial doctors that if something chokes the throat, people will indeed suffocate to death. But Erlang is too impatient."

"Yes, yes, Erlang Menglang is here."

One is really brave enough to take action, and the other is really brave enough to speak out.

Gao Qiu watched the two singing in harmony, thought about it for a while, and then said: "Liu Erlang, you have been in the neighborhood for a long time, have you ever heard the people talk about the Wuyou Gang?"

Finally got the hang of it.

"Taiwei, when I was blocked by Fan Sitong that night at the Yunqiqiao Slaughterhouse, I told him that among all the civil and military officials of the dynasty, I admire Taiwei Gao the most."

"Oh, why?"

"I said at that time, your family, Taiwei Gao, is loyal to the official family, and everything is prosperous for the family, and then he will never get involved in anything. No matter what wind blows from the east, west, northwest, or east, the Taiwei will remain unmoved. Just hold on to the upper and lower lines.

Ten years as Taiwei, he served in three yamen. Not to mention this dynasty, even the Qin, Han, Jin and Tang dynasties are both ancient and modern. "

Gao Qiu remained silent. Murong Shisan looked at Liu Guozhang in surprise, his eyes flickering, showing a bit of surprise.

"Fan Sitong was invited to help Cai Laowu. He told me about it, but he didn't expect that Wuyanei would be so big!" Gao Qiu's voice was a little hoarse.

Liu Guozhang hit the snake and followed the stick, "No! I didn't expect that Cai Laowu would play so big. Because I had a relationship with Zhang Daizhao and Zhang Gongju. After having dinner together, I detained them. Live and force me to participate in the life and death gambling game in Yujin Garden.

In addition to the Wuyou Gang, he also invited Tong Taiwei's bodyguards to stay at home, the Heshuo warriors from Baima Village and the bandits from the Beimang Gang to guard the gate. What on earth did he want to do? I still haven't figured it out. "

Gao Qiu's eyes sharpened, "You really didn't understand?"

"I really don't understand. Just tell me what he wants. He is Grand Master Cai's fifth son. He can crush me to death with one finger. If he says he wants it, how dare I not give it to him?

But he just didn't say anything and insisted on setting up such a big battle. Captain Gao, I really don’t know what he wants? Does your old man know? "

Gao Qiu avoided Liu Guozhang's gaze, stretched out his chopsticks, picked up some food for himself, and chewed carefully, "Haha, how do I know? Who can guess what Wuya Nei is thinking?"

"You can't figure it out, Taiwei. How can I guess the thoughts of such a big man like Wuyanei? I can't figure it out. After thinking about it over and over, I only know one thing."

The chopsticks in Gao Qiu's hand were fixed, "What's the matter?"

“It was only after I entered Manjintang that I kept having bad luck and was targeted by Wuyanei.

But what did I do in Manjintang? Just saved a few people. The eldest brother who saved me was about to escape from Manjin Hall when he was hit by a hidden arrow from their hall master. One of the four Hebei utility soldiers died and three ran back.

The two masters and servants of the Hangzhou merchants invited me to dinner and drinks a few days ago to thank me for saving my life. The two Suzhou scholars, who were in the worst of their lives, managed to escape from Manjintang Prison and were used in a prison outside the city. Killed by God's arm bow.

Lieutenant, I'm in trouble. I'm in trouble. The Wuyou Gang is also full of trouble. Big trouble, really trouble. "

Gao Qiu was silent for a while and then asked: "Liu Erlang, you are in trouble. Have you ever thought about how to solve this trouble?"

"I think, Lieutenant, I think about it all the time. But this trouble will not be solved for a while, what should I do? I thought about it, if I solve the person who caused the trouble, wouldn't this trouble disappear? "

"What a good idea!" Gao Qiu slammed the table and praised loudly, then stared at Liu Guozhang: "Liu Erlang, you are also the one causing trouble now, what should I do?"

"Lieutenant, I can't solve it myself." Liu Guozhang replied nonchalantly, "But the source of all troubles comes from Cai Laowu, and then spread to the common people through the Wuyou Gang.

That means there are three people causing trouble. Cai Laowu, I, and the Wuyou Gang, we can get away as long as we solve one of them. To solve the problem, Taiwei, which one do you think is the easiest to solve? Grand Master Cai’s son, or me, a grass-roots citizen? Or the Wuyou Gang? "

Gao Qiu remained silent.

Liu Guozhang continued: "I persuaded Gang Leader Fan at the beginning."

"Oh, how did you persuade him?" Gao Qiu asked.

"I said, Gang Leader Fan, you seem to be the leader of the Wuyou Gang. You are majestic and respected by everyone inside and outside Tokyo. In fact, you are just a chamber pot. You use it when you need to urinate. After you use it, it smells bad, so you throw it away. Corner place.

If it really stinks, just throw it outside the yard, break it into pieces, and replace it with another one. Pottery, porcelain, copper, silver, gold, inlaid with jade, whatever the owner wants.

Gang leader Fan doesn't listen, his advice is off-putting, he just doesn't listen. As a result, he was dragged into the water and made a mess, which made him smell bad. Why bother! "

Gao Qiu's face flickered for a few times, then returned to normal quickly, and said with a smile: "Liu Erlang's words are reasonable. The trouble must be solved. Failure to solve it will be a disaster."

Liu Guozhang and Gao Qiu no longer mentioned related matters, but had a great conversation all over the world. Liu Guozhang also asked Gao Qiu for advice on how to play Cuju. The host and guest got along well and enjoyed themselves.

After eating and drinking, the two of them said goodbye.

Gao Qiu got into the mule cart, his face was ashen, his fists were clenched, and he was worried.

Back home, Murong Shisan was still on horseback, while Liu Guozhang and Zhang Meng were in the car.

"Yes, Gao Qiu was moved by you."

Murong Shisan rode his horse and said by the car window.

"Fan Sitong was a chamber pot to Gao Qiu. But how could Gao Qiu not be a chamber pot to an official?" Liu Guozhang said leisurely in the car.

Murong Shisan turned around suddenly and looked inside the car. It's just that the car window is blocked by brocade, so I can't see clearly.
