"Come on, since this Li Xiuqin is not Li Guangdi's first wife, and judging from her appearance, it is impossible to say that she is a brothel girl. Now she has been abandoned by Li Guangdi, and she has come to seek help from you. [ ] If you, your Excellency, would kill her like this.
If Li Guangdi knew about it, he would deny it, and maybe even have a flesh-and-blood acknowledgment before the emperor. Then let alone punish him, I'm afraid there would be a good story. And this Li Xiuqin could not only raise Li Guangdi's second son,
She traveled thousands of miles away to Beijing to find her husband, so she must have a deep affection for Li Guangdi. In addition, given the nature of a brothel woman, it is not impossible for her to change her mind on the spot. Therefore, the only plan for now is to make sure that Li Guangdi abandons his flesh and blood and becomes a father.
Then let the emperor know about it. By then, no matter how scheming Li Guangdi is, he will be unable to do anything. Therefore, the top priority is to send Li Xiuqin, mother and son to Shuntian Mansion, and let them submit a complaint against Li Guangdi. Then, Your Excellency
If you ask others to make arrangements, you must not directly participate in it, so as not to be taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives. It is best for adults to withdraw from the matter and let others do everything. In this way, no matter how others talk about it, it will not affect the adult."
After saying so much, Zhao Qiang felt a little thirsty, so he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, waiting for Gao Shiqi's reaction.
"Well, that's right. If the proprietor hadn't reminded me, I almost made a big mistake!" After hearing Zhao Qiang's analysis, Gao Shiqi nodded in agreement.
"We must first prove this matter, otherwise Li Guangdi will never admit it." Gao Shiqi walked a few steps in the house, but suddenly thought of something, he couldn't help but stop and said to Zhao Qiang in embarrassment: "But if Li Xiuqin refuses
How about giving in? Besides, she came to beg me with her children, how could I leave and be a bystander?"
Zhao Qiang laughed dryly: "Well... Your Excellency, you can tell her clearly that if she is willing, she will take her to see the emperor afterwards to seek justice for her mother and son.
There's nothing I can do to help! But it's time to talk to her. Although your Excellency believes her, others may not believe her, so you still have to go through the motions first. Only in this way can outsiders not be confused and think that Your Excellency is using her mother and son to frame Master Li Guangdi.
." Seeing Gao Shiqi's heart move, he further said: "If she really refuses to submit, I have no choice but to resort to some means."
Gao Shiqi was startled when he heard this, his expression changed, and then he sighed and said, "I hope it doesn't come to this."
Zhao Qiang didn't want to come to this point. After all, Li Xiuqin was a woman, and she came all the way to Beijing with her two children to find a husband. It was really pitiful. But in order to marry Gao Shiqi, he could only use her without conscience.
Otherwise, if something happened to Gao Shiqi, where would he find a backer to help him do things? Besides, Li Guangdi is really not a thing. Such a sanctimonious person is entirely to blame. Even if he is dismissed and investigated, it is his own fault. He must be blamed.
Not as good as others.
"I will later have someone take Li Xiuqin to Shuntian Mansion to file a lawsuit against him, accusing Li Guangdi of abandoning his flesh and blood and being an unkind father! As soon as Shuntian Mansion receives the lawsuit, I will find a few censors who are close to the Ducha Yuan and ask them to come to court tomorrow morning.
We jointly impeach him, Li Guangdi, and how will Li Guangdi cope with it? In addition, I will send people to Hangzhou to collect evidence to prove that Li Guangdi did have a concubine in Hangzhou, so that he can deny it." With an idea, Gao Shiqi began to think.
, he thought of all the moves before and after in the blink of an eye. However, he still had to be careful about one thing, because Li Guangdi had been on good terms with Suo'etu for a long time. If something happened to him, Suo'etu would not sit idly by.
He will definitely interfere. With his power, it will be easy for Li Xiuqin to change his story or destroy the evidence. Therefore, this matter must be discussed with the prime minister, and Suo Etu must not be allowed to manipulate it.
Thinking of Suo'etu's character, Gao Shiqi suddenly became excited, because the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He had just come back from outside the customs, and was impeached by Li Guangdi without even going to the emperor's palace. However, he and Li Guangdi had always had a grudge.
He would never harm himself for no reason, so he must have some purpose. What is his purpose? Gao Shiqi frowned and thought of one person. This matter is probably related to him. Think about it more carefully, and the more you think about it, the more you are right, otherwise there is no way
Explain Li Guangdi's sudden move.
The person Gao Shiqi thought of was General Ningguta Bahai. One of the fundamental reasons for him to connect the things was that Bahai was from Suo'etu, and the things he visited outside the customs were exactly Bahai's.
As long as he reveals these things to the emperor, Bahai, General Ningguta, will inevitably be replaced. Therefore, in order to keep Bahai, Suo'etu asked Li Guangdi, who was also his party member, to persuade the emperor.
Gao Shiqi's attention shifted from Ba Hai to himself. What a man who was repairing the plank road secretly to Chencang! After realizing that he had been tricked by Suo'etu, Gao Shiqi's anger increased sharply, and he was so angry that the veins in his neck stood up, which surprised Zhao Qiang.
Oh, I wonder what kind of "evil deeds" this Gao Dajun remembered about Li Guangdi again.
Li Guangdi, you shameless villain, you actually trapped me to death for the selfish interests of one party. Well, if you are in the first grade of junior high school, don’t blame me for being in the fifteenth grade! Gao Shiqi had a sullen face, how would he use Li Xiuqin, mother and son to make trouble?
I thought carefully about crossing Li Guangdi again and made a few rules. I just wanted to discuss it with Mingzhu in detail before making the final choice.
"If your Excellency is concerned about this matter, you might as well go and do it now. I won't disturb you. I'll come to see you another day." Seeing that Gao Shiqi has been thinking about something, Zhao Qiang knew it and wanted to leave first, but heard Gao Shiqi say: "
Don't worry, it's still early, and the proprietor just asked me to appreciate the painting. I was so busy with the mother and son that I forgot about this, so I'd like to ask the proprietor to bring me the painting now."
Huh? Hearing Gao Shiqi say that he still wants to appreciate the paintings, Zhao Qiang couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart: He is indeed the first Han official in the Kangxi period. His character is indeed remarkable. If he had been involved in such an imminent matter, he would have been killed earlier.
I can't wait to make seals with Li Xiuqin and her son. How can I still have time to help others with paintings?
Since Gao Shiqi said yes, Zhao Qiang naturally couldn't say that the time was not right. He immediately took the bamboo bird picture of Zheng Ming from the bamboo tube and carefully spread it out on the table.
"This is the painting I bought. Please take a look at it."
Gao Shiqi walked to the table with great interest and observed it carefully. There was no trace of impatience or anxiety on his face, which made Zhao Qiang even more impressed.
"Well, Zheng Ming's painting is good, it's authentic." After a while, Gao Shiqi looked away from the painting, turned to Zhao Qiang, and asked, "I wonder how much money the owner spent on this painting?"
Zhao Qiang said hurriedly: "It's not much, only two thousand taels. I was afraid that this painting was fake. Now that I heard the master said it was authentic, my idea came to fruition. The shopkeeper told me that it was a painting by the four great talents, haha
, The people in the next border area didn't know who the four great talents were, but I figured since it was a painting by a talented person, it must be good, so I bought it."
After listening to Zhao Qiang's words, Gao Shiqi smiled and said: "Two thousand taels to buy a calligraphy and painting by Zheng Ming is really not expensive. The proprietor bought something good." After saying that, he winked at Zhao Qiang slyly: "
But my proprietor doesn’t look like someone who appreciates paintings, so he definitely wouldn’t spend two thousand taels of silver to buy a painting and calligraphy to bring back to the clan for people to appreciate?”
Zhao Qiang sneered: "To be honest with you, sir, I didn't buy this painting for myself to enjoy, but as a gift to you."
"Oh? Give it to me?" Gao Shiqi's face was filled with confusion, but his eyes were bright.
Mingren did not tell secrets in front of him, and even a shrewd person like Gao Shiqi could not deceive him. At that moment, Zhao Qiang said honestly: "My lord is so kind to me and my clan, and I always feel sorry for it, so I thought of giving you some gifts to express your gratitude to me."
My thoughts. But I don’t know what to give as a gift to you, a simpleton. I heard someone said that you are a great scholar of the dynasty, a role model for readers, and readers like French calligraphy and painting and other ancient monuments the most, so I bought this painting.
I’m not sure whether it’s in line with your thoughts if I give it to you as a gift.”
"Haha, the proprietor is so considerate." Gao Shiqi seemed to have expected that Zhao Qiang would say this, and smiled heartily: "Since the proprietor specially bought it for me, if I didn't accept it, the proprietor would misunderstand that I was too frivolous.
Forget it, I will accept this painting."
You, Gao Shiqi, are the first person to receive such a grand gift. Zhao Qiang rolled his eyes in his heart and smiled: "When I came here, I was worried that the Lord would not accept this mere gift. Now that the Lord has accepted it, I am worried about it."
Feeling at ease."
"This is not a mere gift, but a generous gesture." Gao Shiqi chuckled. Not many of Zheng Ming's paintings have survived, and it is rare to see one now. His love for painting arose spontaneously, and he couldn't help but look at it again.
He got up, but this time he shouted "Huh?" with a look of surprise and surprise. When Zhao Qiang saw it, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that he had bought a fake. He asked nervously
Said: "Where are you, sir?"
Gao Shiqi looked very sad. He did not answer Zhao Qiang's words, but asked: "When the owner bought the painting, could the owner tell who the original owner of the painting was?"
"I never mentioned it. I just said that the owner of the painting was short of money and had to sell the painting as a last resort." Zhao Qiang recalled that the shopkeeper did not say who the owner of the original painting was. Seeing Gao Shiqi's expression, he couldn't help but ask: "What?
Do you know who the original owner of this painting is?"
"I didn't know it at first, but now I know it." Gao Shiqi's expression became slightly normal at this time. He gently touched the drawing paper as if to Zhao Qiang, and seemed to be saying to himself: "Pei Gong, Pei Gong, I don't miss you.
Now I am so depressed that I have to sell my paintings to make a living, alas."
