Chapter 341: You can defend against humans, but not against gods
Gan Rong worked at the Lu family clinic, paying for his medical expenses. He often walked around Yucheng and became a familiar face. After he had paid off his debts and saved a little money for the journey, he planned to go to Beijing.
However, he did not expect that before he even reached the capital, he heard that the Xie family of the Northwest Army had suffered a crushing defeat. He rushed to the capital in a panic. As soon as he arrived, he heard that the only surviving Major General Xie Yuchuan had been imprisoned by the emperor.
At that time, everyone in Beijing who had a connection with the Xie family felt insecure.
Gan Rong did not dare to act rashly. When he was thinking about doing something for the Xie family, he was recognized by Han Qiguang's men.
To be precise, it was tested.
Xie Yuchuan has always been impressed by Han Qiguang's ability.
"That's how I was taken away by Master Han, and later returned to Yucheng."
From the beginning to the end, Han Qiguang never mentioned to Xie Yuchuan that the person who would meet him in Yucheng was actually Gan Rong, an old man from the Xie family.
Xie Yuchuan stared at Han Qiguang: "You are quite capable of holding it in."
"Hehe, same here. You can communicate with the gods, but you can't hold it back."
It's just the pot calling the kettle black. How dare you criticize him? Humph!
Gan Rong smiled and spoke up for Han Qiguang, "Young General, don't blame Young Master Han for this. Ever since the new magistrate arrived in Yucheng, those families have maintained a tight rein on the city. Young Master Han said you have a sharp eye but a proud temper. I'm afraid I'd tell you in advance that you wouldn't let him make such a move on me. While this may be dangerous, I'm the most suitable person to stay in Yucheng by accident."
"If the old lady, the young general, and the others don't pass through Yucheng, I will go look for you outside the pass after the masters leave. I never thought that today would be a day where I, Gan Rong, could be of assistance. To avoid exposing myself when I meet the masters, I have asked Master Han to keep this matter a secret. If the young general has any punishment, please punish me."
Having said that, Xie Yuchuan was not going to argue.
Gan Rong mentioned the changes in Yucheng, and Xie Yuchuan asked, "Do you know what Master Han and I are planning to do?"
"I understand." Gan Rong nodded. "Young Master, if you have anything to say, please tell me. As far as I know, those families have been acting with the Yu family as their leader recently. The Yu family has been very popular in the capital recently and urgently needs a lot of money to go to the capital. The leader of Qinglong Village will not be able to delay for long and will have to take action."
Doctor Lu had just returned from working outside the city when he was invited by the Yu family to see a patient.
Xie Yuchuan's eyes moved slightly.
"Invited by the Yu family?"
Gan Rong said, "Yes."
Xie Yuchuan looked at Han Qiguang standing aside and asked, "Doesn't the Yu family have their own clinic? Why do they still need to hire a doctor from outside to treat patients?"
Han Qiguang took a sip of wine and said, "Doctor Lu has a unique medical skill. The Yu family's skills are no match for Lu Hongwen."
Gan Rong also nodded, "Doctor Lu is an expert in treating women's hidden ailments."
Han Qiguang smiled and said, "I personally feel that, according to what Gan Rong said, in terms of ability, he is no less capable than the doctors in the Imperial Hospital who treat the ladies in the palace all day long.
"Then why..."
Han Qiguang knew what he wanted to ask, "Everyone has their own way of living. So, is the Imperial Hospital a place for good people?"
That’s right, Xie Yuchuan thought to himself.
Xie Yuchuan pondered and said, "Something happened to the Yu family?"
Gan Rong looked at Han Qiguang, and they smiled at each other, as if they were playing a guessing game in front of Xie Yuchuan.
Xie Yuchuan:?
Han Qiguang spoke for Gan Rong, "It was thanks to the divine artifact given to you by the family deity that we were able to find out that Wan Lichun has a girlfriend in the Yu family. She's currently pregnant, and her pregnancy is fluctuating. Wan Lichun comes down the mountain once or twice a month to visit her, and she may have been coming down more frequently recently, which gave us this opportunity."
"The Yu family is holding people's lives hostage and forcing them to work."
"The Yu family provided the money and information, and set up the way for Wan Lichun to go. Wan Lichun did the dirty work, dealing in money. He did big things for big things and small things for small things."
Xie Yuchuan narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"
Han Qiguang said, "No matter how much money they have made in private, they will openly go down the mountain to cause trouble and rob as much money as possible."
Xie Yuchuan sneered, "So, the money they made this time is not a small amount."
Otherwise, why would they target the Xie family?
Gan Rong had been in Yucheng for a long time and was quite familiar with the city. Seeing Han Qiguang nod at him, Gan Rong said to Xie Yuchuan, "This time, the Yu family went to great lengths to mobilize officials from all around, both large and small, just to get things done. Besides the amount of money involved, I think it's because the Xie family's affairs have a huge impact on the court. Any trouble, no matter how big or small, can be easily manipulated! It's a perfect way to divert the blame, and all troubles can be put on the Xie family."
Xie Yuchuan lowered his eyes, took a sip of wine, and suddenly smiled.
He raised his eyes and smiled at Han Qiguang, "It seems that this man's dominance over the mountain is not entirely due to his cruel nature."
"That's right! That guy hasn't let me find the warehouse in the back mountain yet. He's very cunning." Han Qiguang was quite upset when he mentioned this, and he had to nag about it at the end, "He's just as wicked as your Xie Tong."
Gan Rong didn't know who Xie Tong was that the two of them were talking about, but since he came to Han Qiguang's side, he occasionally heard the eldest son Han mention him a few times when he scolded his subordinates. Most of the time, he complained that his subordinates were not as cunning as Xie Yuchuan's subordinates.
When he heard it again this time and saw that the young master Xie Yuchuan looked calm and indifferent, he silently remembered this person named "Xie Tong" in his heart. He always felt that one day in the future, he would meet this person, and he must be extra careful then.
Xie Yuchuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Since we sent out a test boat yesterday, it probably won't last for a few days."
"I think so."
Han Qiguang thought about it and offered a suggestion: "You said that Wan Lichun's lifeblood is in the hands of the Yu family. Can we find a way to take control of his lifeblood?"
Xie Yuchuan said: "If it is possible, it would be the best, but are you sure?"
Han Qiguang looked depressed and shook his head, saying, "This approach won't work for me. The Yu family is so mad right now that they're practically fuming."
Meaning, he can't handle it.
Xie Yuchuan said calmly, "There's no point in discussing these unfeasible things."
Han Qiguang stared at him for a long time, and Xie Yuchuan frowned.
"If you have something to say, say it. If you have to fart, fart now!"
Han Qiguang's eyes lit up and he thought of a unique way!
"Xie Yuchuan!"
Suddenly there was a loud shout, startling both Xie Yuchuan and Gan Rong!
Han Qiguang suddenly slapped his forehead and said excitedly: "Oh! How could I forget such an important thing!"
Xie Yuchuan: "..."
I have a very bad feeling.
"I, Han Qiguang, can't get into the Yu family's dilapidated house, but there are people who can get in!"
Xie Yuchuan:?
Han Qiguang clapped his hands and said, "No, that's not right! No one can get in!"
Gan Rong sat aside, his mind confused.
Then I heard Han Qiguang say in surprise:
"If humans can't get in, then we can find a way to ask our family's deity for help! If we can persuade her to go in and find out what's going on! No matter how powerful the Yu family is, they can't defend against the gods!"
Xie Yuchuan looked at him quietly.
Han Qiguang stared at him happily and asked, "Xie Yuchuan! What do you think of this idea?"
Early in the morning, just as Tu Huan had finished packing, she received a new message from Xie Yuchuan on her phone.
[Xie Yuchuan: Where in the world can you find medicine to regret your mistakes?]
Tu Huan stared at the message with a look of surprise.
What's going on?
