Cao Renqi was originally skeptical about Huang Shaojie.

To be honest, he didn’t believe Huang Shaojie could deal with that assassin.

Can a Jinyiwei Zongqi who is around 20 years old reach the master level in martial arts?

But then he thought about it, it didn’t matter whether the General Banner of Jinyiwei could deal with that assassin, as long as Cao Renqi could deal with him.

Although he was hit by the assassin’s flying knife last night, fortunately his heart was not injured. He took a few healing elixirs, applied gold wound medicine externally, and used his internal strength cultivation to move his strength for repair and treatment. Now he is actually better. about there.

If this assassin dares to assassinate him again, Cao Renqi is confident that he will catch him.

Thinking of this, Cao Renqi immediately agreed: “Okay, then we will act according to Mr. Huang’s plan.”

………

“Hey, what kind of notice is posted here?”

“Is there anyone who can read it and read it to us all?”

There was a notice posted on a government bulletin board, surrounded by curious people watching the fun.

However, most of the people are illiterate and don’t know what is written on it. Anyway, they are just watching the fun.

A middle-aged man wearing a blue Confucian shirt looked at the notice and said:

“The Captain was injured to the edge of his heart by an assassin’s flying knife and is in critical condition. Now there is a reward for a famous doctor to come and treat him. If he can save the Captain’s life, he will receive a reward of ten thousand taels of silver.”

After hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but open their mouths wide and let out a sound of exclamation.

“Wow, I’ll give you a reward of ten thousand taels of silver, if I can cure the captain!”

“The Captain is really rich. He can spend ten thousand taels of silver at a time.”

“Nonsense, the captain is a high-ranking official. His life is worth more than a thousand taels of silver?”

“It’s better to make money by being an official. You can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver casually. Alas, for us poor people, our whole family can’t earn more than ten taels of silver a year.”

“However, this assassin is so bold that he dares to assassinate an official of the imperial court. This is really a long life.”

“Hmph, it’s best to kill these corrupt officials, but none of them are good. I don’t know how much people’s wealth and wealth have been plundered.”

“Brother, you are desperate for your life. You dare to say such things in public. Be careful if someone sues you and takes you to the Yamen to be punished.”

The people watching were all talking and talking.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a coarse blue shirt stood in the crowd, also looking at the notice.

This middle-aged man was tall and burly, with strong features and an unshaven beard, looking downcast, but his eyes were shining.

The middle-aged man stared at the notice for a while, with an imperceptible sneer on his lips.

Then, he turned around and left.

Two days later.

Outside the gate of Cao Mansion came a doctor carrying a medicine box.

The doctor has a stooped figure and white beard and hair, but his complexion is very rosy, giving people the impression of a child with white hair and white hair.

“May I ask if this is Master Cao’s residence?”

The old doctor came to the gate of Cao Mansion, clasped his hands and asked the two servants guarding the gate.

“That’s right, this is the residence of Lord Captain Cao.” A servant looked at the old doctor and asked, “Are you here to treat our Lord?”

The old man twisted his beard and nodded: “I have devoted myself to studying medicine for forty years. Although I dare not say that I can cure all diseases, I am confident that I can still cure Master Cao’s injuries.”

The servant curled his lips and said: “Haha, every doctor who came here said that he had excellent medical skills and could cure my family’s injuries, but in the end, none of them could cure my family’s injuries, and they were all kicked out in the end.”

Another servant said: “Never mind him, just take him in. Anyway, if the doctor is not good, we won’t give him money.”

After that, he waved to the old man: “Old man, come in with me!”

The old doctor followed the servant into Cao’s mansion and took him to the hall.

In the east wing room.

Cao Renqi and Huang Shaojie were sitting on chairs beside the carved round table, drinking tea leisurely. However, Huang Shaojie was wearing a Cao Mansion guard uniform at the moment.

At this time, a servant came to report.

“Master, here comes another old doctor. He said he can cure my injury.”

Cao Renqi took a sip of tea and said, “Bring him here!”

“Yes, sir.”

The servant took the order and left.

Cao Renqi put down the tea cup and smiled at Huang Shaojie: “It seems that it is difficult to have a leisurely cup of tea with Mr. Huang.”

After that, he stood up, took off his fox fur cloak, and lay down on the bed.

Huang Shaojie also stood up and stood aside with his back straight.

After a while, the servant came in with the old doctor.

“Master, the doctor is here.” The servant said with cupped hands.

“Ahem…” Cao Renqi pretended to cough violently a few times and wiped the

The handkerchief with chicken blood was thrown under the bed, and he said feebly, “Bring the doctor here!”

A glimmer of light flashed in the old doctor’s eyes. He carried the medicine box and walked to the bed. He bowed his head and said, “I have met Mr. Cao.”

Cao Renqi waved his hand weakly: “Without courtesy, as long as you can cure my injuries, I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver… ahem…”

“Master Cao, the civilians will help you feel your pulse first, and then give you the acupuncture.”

As the old doctor said, he put the medicine box on the table, took out a few silver needles and held it in his hand.

Huang Shaojie stood aside. Every time a doctor came in, he would use his insight technique to pay attention secretly.

The previous doctors had no problems, but as soon as this old doctor came in, Huang Shaojie immediately noticed that there was something wrong with him.

First of all, this ‘old doctor’ has a fake gray beard, there is murderous intent in his eyes, and his whole body is restrained.

Of course, ordinary people cannot detect it, but it is impossible to escape Huang Shaojie’s insight technique.

Huang Shaojie was certain that this old man must be the assassin in disguise.

This assassin really fell into the trap!

Huang Shaojie sneered secretly in his heart, and at the same time used his palms to move his skills, getting ready to go.

But Cao Renqi didn’t realize that there was something wrong with the old man. He stretched out his palm to take the old man’s pulse.

However, Cao Renqi secretly used his true energy. Once he found out that there was something wrong with this old man, he would immediately strike him out with his palm.

The old doctor’s left hand reached towards Cao Renqi’s right wrist, and he held three silver needles in his right hand.

Just as he held Cao Renqi’s wrist with his left hand, three silver needles in his right hand shot Cao Renqi’s three major acupoints at the same time.

This mutation is extremely fast!

Fortunately, Cao Renqi was prepared. When Lao Langzhong grabbed his wrist, Cao Renqi immediately knew something was wrong and used his strength to break free from Lao Langzhong’s wrist.

And he was also wearing an iron plate for body protection. When these three silver needles were shot on his body, they all hit the iron plate.

Huang Shaojie struck at the assassin with one palm.

Knowing that he had fallen into the trap, the assassin slapped Huang Shaojie with his hand and used his strength to jump back and break out of the window.

Huang Shaojie jumped after him.

“Catch the assassin!” Cao Renqi jumped up from the bed and shouted.

Outside the courtyard, a dozen masters from the mansion who were secretly ambushing around jumped out and attacked the assassin.

Seeing this, Huang Shaojie turned over and landed from the air, ready to take a look at the excitement first.

If these masters in the mansion could capture the assassin, he would be spared the need to take action.

If the masters in the mansion can’t deal with this assassin, it won’t be too late for him to take action again.

This also shows that he has a strong character. It would be a bit embarrassing if he went to besiege the assassins with the guards of the palace now.
