Chapter 67: The argument of the smelly Taoist priest
Qi Qian was a little surprised that Qin Liuxi did not want Xi Zheng. After all, Qin Liuxi's actions had completely convinced Xi Zheng and made him grateful. If he were his servant, he would not dare to rebel.
But Qin Liuxi didn't keep her, and even gave her some advice, but he didn't receive any money.
Qin Liuxi said lazily: "I am a doctor who has saved so many people. If everyone recommended themselves as slaves like her, wouldn't there be a group of slaves around me? How can I, a stinky Taoist priest, get so much money?
By raising slaves, do you really think I can open a charity hall?"
"Doctor Qin must not mean this." Qi Qian didn't believe what she said.
"That's mainly because she is still in trouble. You said that if I keep her by my side, if she gets into trouble, wouldn't it be a waste of time for me to be a frail person?" Qin Liuxi looked scared.
Looks like death.
Qi Qian: "...You have extraordinary medical skills, you can seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, and you even have unpredictable abilities. Even if you find trouble, I'm afraid it will also be trouble for the other party."
So, stop pretending, I can see through it all!
Qin Liuxi's eyebrows raised slightly: "I didn't expect that in the eyes of Mr. Qi, I could be so capable. It's really embarrassing for me."
Qi Qian chuckled, and then said after a while: "Her father, named Xi Penghai, used to be a fourth-grade Zhenwei general. However, due to the defeat in the Western Sea War in the 22nd year of Kangwu, he escaped from the battle, resulting in 50,000 soldiers being captured and killed.
He was regarded as a traitor and a disgrace to the country. He even embezzled military pay. The Holy Emperor was furious and stripped Xi Penghai of all military honors and official positions and demoted him to a commoner. Xi Penghai committed suicide because of the rumors. Xi Zheng's mother died as a husband, leaving only one child.
To the children.”
Qin Liuxi leaned against the chariot, playing with a jade talisman in his hand, saying nothing or commenting.
"Doctor Qin thinks that Xi Penghai is really a traitor general who escaped from battle?" Qi Qian stared at her closely.
Qin Liuxi then looked over and said helplessly: "Master Qi, you really want to discuss Taoist scriptures with me. It's fine for me to talk to you at night by holding a candle, but you ask me about this state affairs, how can I know? I don't know.
If you have never seen General Xi, how can you know that he is loyal and treacherous?"
Qi Qian narrowed his eyes and said: "You called him General Xi, and you even helped to save the general of the Xi family. Doctor Qin is a Taoist, and he cannot be indifferent to right from wrong, so..."
"Hey, I didn't say anything!" Qin Liuxi stopped him, shook his finger and said: "Young Master Qi is not in Xuanmen, but I don't know that not all Taoists in this world are upright. There is also a kind of Taoism.
, is an evil way. As long as I can afford the money and price, I specialize in doing evil things that harm others. How do you know whether I am an evil person?"
"If you were evil, you wouldn't have rescued that boy from the Xi family. You haven't even received a penny yet." Qi Qian replied again.
"How did you know that I didn't take the reward?" Qin Liuxi chuckled: "Their reward has been given to them long ago, but Mr. Qi didn't know."
Those meritorious deeds are rewards that cannot be exchanged for a thousand dollars.
Qi Qian frowned.
"Mr. Qi, there are countless unjust, false and wrong cases in the world. When you ask Xi Penghai whether he is a traitor or not, do you want to find out the truth or reverse the case? No matter which case it is, you have to investigate it yourself, right?
?I said he is a loyal minister, do you believe it, does the emperor believe it?" Qin Liuxi showed a sarcastic smile: "The only thing that can make the emperor believe is evidence, even if it is specious, the crime can be judged if the evidence is in front of you. No matter how treasonous you are, the emperor will not believe it.
If you don’t believe him, there is no evidence, he is not a loyal minister, and he can be punished.”
This is the way of a king and his ministers. If the king wants his ministers to die, they must die.
Qi Qian's face changed slightly, and his whole body became fierce.
