Chapter 1149 This method is a bit fierce (seeking a monthly ticket)
"Hmph! Li Qi, you have gone too far. Our Bai family has been reduced to a street rat, and you still want to send Qin Hui to raid my home. Don't you have to kill everyone before you give up?" When Mrs. Bai saw it, she said
Li Qi's eyes erupted with two rays of fire, and he scolded angrily.
Searching the house? Li Qi raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face froze for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "Mother-in-law, this is definitely a misunderstanding! When did I ask Qin Hui to search the house? I just asked him to--"
After saying this, he suddenly woke up and said to himself, "Oh no, damn, I've been tricked again. This mother-in-law is really hard to guard against!"
Mrs. Bai snorted softly and said, "What are you going to do? Keep talking!"
Li Qi said awkwardly: "You know everything?"
Madam Bai hummed: "Who do you think you can hide from?"
It's just that you can't hide it. If it were Gao Yanei, he would have been deceived so that he couldn't even tell the difference between east, west and north. Li Qi was really miserable when he met such a mother-in-law. Hehehe said: "My son-in-law just wants to invite my mother-in-law to come."
There is absolutely no malice in this.”
"Please? I really didn't notice this."
"My son-in-law, there's nothing we can do about it. Otherwise, how could you be willing to come here? I'm here to accompany you first." Li Qi bowed, then stretched out his hand and said, "Mother-in-law, come inside
please."
Mrs. Bai glanced at Li Qi, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I want to see what tricks you want to play." After that, she followed Li Qi to the back hall.
There were no servants in the house. After Li Qi asked Mrs. Bai to sit down, he poured a cup of tea himself and said in a cheerful tone: "Mother-in-law, please have some tea."
Mrs. Bai didn't even look at it. She waved her hand and said, "That's fine. I'm afraid of being poisoned. You'd better tell me something if you have something to say."
Li Qilue looked a little embarrassed and sighed. "I admit that in this matter, I am indeed sorry for my father-in-law, I am sorry for you, I am sorry for Qiniang, and I am sorry for the entire Bai family. I also expected that such a day would come. But
, If I don’t do this, then I will not only lose your trust in me, but I may lose you completely.”
Mrs. Bai said: "King Yanyun, you are upright and upright. You dedicated yourself to the country and the people. You died. I already know this. You don't need to say it again."
Sweat! Am I so good? Li Qi said patiently: "Mother-in-law, you are a smart person. You should also know what this country is like now. Do you hope to hand over the great country of the Song Dynasty to the Jin people?
?”
Mrs. Bai said: "I am just a woman. It is not my turn to care about these things. I am not qualified. All I care about is my husband and my children. If anyone hurts them, should I still care about them?"
He applauded and praised him for what he did well. Did he do the right thing? If it were me. If I hurt the red slaves, Zhengxi, and the innocent people around you, even if I have ten thousand reasons, you
Will you forgive me again?"
This is true. Why should she, a woman, care about these things? She has enough to eat and hold on. Moreover, no one in this world is a treacherous person, not to mention that Bai Shizhong has never done anything evil.
As for clique fighting, it is unavoidable. At least he did not amass money like Tong Guan, Li Bangyan and others, so Mrs. Bai would never think that her husband should suffer such a serious crime. This is human nature, after all, like
A woman like Li Qingzhao is rare to find in a hundred years!
Li Qi understood Mrs. Bai's thoughts very well and said: "From your point of view, you are showing mercy by not asking me to fight to the death. I also understand your anger, but what has happened has already happened. If you are angry with me again,
It can’t solve the problem, I hope I can do something to remedy it.”
"remedy?"
Mrs. Bai smiled contemptuously and said: "Can this be remedied? Can our Bai family go back to the past? I'm afraid you can only deceive a three-year-old child with your words."
She knew the current situation best. She knew that Zhao Kai tricked Bai Shizhong into going to Yingtian Mansion for the sake of Li Qi, but that was all. Zhao Kai would never trust Bai Shizhong again.
, as a minister, if you don't get the slightest trust from the emperor, your career will come to an end.
Today's situation is obviously worse than this. Not to mention Bai Shizhong, even his sons have lost their official career. The decline of the Bai family is inevitable. It can even be said that their danger is not complete yet.
Eliminate it, because there are still a lot of people in the court who want to kill the Bai family. If one day they suffer a disaster, I believe no one will be surprised.
Li Qi certainly understood this truth, but he had no better way and could only remain silent.
Mrs. Bai glanced sideways at Li Qi and said, "Remember that I told you carefully before, I don't care what you do, but I hope you can be worthy of Qiniang, that's all. But on this point,
You didn't do it either."
As she spoke, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she waved her hand and said: "That's all, that's all, what are you talking about now? The winner is the king or the loser, especially in politics. You are not the first to do this.
What you do will never be the last one. We, the Bai family, are convinced that you are indeed very smart. You have managed to hide it from so many people. Although I had doubted your intentions at first, I believe that no matter what you do,
, will not do anything to harm our Bai family. If you want to blame me, you can only blame me for trusting the wrong person, and I can't blame others."
Li Qi felt very uncomfortable when he heard this and said, "Qiniang must be very sad."
"As for Qiniang, don't ask me. Whether you believe it or not, I have never interfered in your affairs. If she wants to be with you, I will not stop her. After all, she
She's your wife. If she doesn't want to be with you anymore, I don't have any objection, because she is my daughter and everything is up to her. However, you also know her answer. You'd better let us deal with it as soon as possible.
Come on, Tianfu, this is good for you and good for us."
Li Qi's throat felt a little clogged and he said, "Things haven't reached this point yet."
Mrs. Bai shook her head and said with a hint of exhaustion: "You should know the principle of once the emperor and his ministers. The current emperor will never tolerate our Bai family. Since you have already made your choice, why not be more thorough? It is not right to be sloppy.
Smart move.”
Is there nothing she can do? Li Qi was filled with disappointment, sat on a chair, and said: "No matter what, I will never let Qiniang leave the capital. If there is really no other way, I will take Hongnu and the others with me.
You two go to Yingtian Mansion together, or to other places."
A flash of surprise flashed in Mrs. Bai's eyes, and she said: "Are you willing to give up? Your current status is something that no one else can envy."
Li Qi said firmly: "Now that the Jin soldiers have retreated, my goal has been achieved. The only one I can't bear to part with now is Qiniang."
"You say that because you know the emperor will never let you go." Mrs. Bai snorted.
Li Qidao: "Don't provoke me. If I want to leave, no one can stop me."
Mrs. Bai raised her eyelids, glanced at Li Qi with a hint of confusion, her face softened a little, and said: "You asked me to come here just to tell me this?"
Li Qi shook his head and said: "Actually, the emperor has promised me. As long as I can find a suitable reason, he is willing to take back the imperial edict."
Mrs. Bai sighed: "The situation is over, and withdrawing the imperial edict will not change anything."
"Is this status and reputation really so important?" Li Qi frowned.
"What do you think?"
"If I say I don't think so, you won't believe it either." Li Qi added, "But I have one thing to say, if I make you unhappy, please forgive me."
"Every word you say now will make me unhappy. Can I forgive you?" Mrs. Bai said straightforwardly.
"Well...!"
Li Qi scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Although my father-in-law is talented, his character is too cowardly. If he were born in a peaceful and troubled time, he might still be able to rise to prominence, but if he were in a troubled time, even with or without me, the result might be the same.
. Take this incident as an example. I never said a single word to induce him from beginning to end, and his first thought was to run away. If he had chosen to stay at that time, the situation would be completely different. Of course,
I am not shirking responsibility. In fact, I also hoped that you would leave at that time, because I was not very sure that I could hold Kaifeng. If the city was destroyed, I did not want to implicate you. I just wanted to say why my father-in-law could not let go of everything.
He can take good care of himself at home, and mother-in-law, you don't have to worry about him day and night. As for the other members of the Bai family, if they have the ability, they will definitely be able to embark on an official career, I can guarantee this."
Mrs. Bai began to ponder upon hearing this. In fact, she also knew that Bai Shizhong was too cowardly and not as good as Cai Jing. Gao Qiu and the others had the means. Once the situation was turbulent, he would not be able to control it at all. He did not even have the ability to protect himself wisely. Therefore, at the very beginning,
When she was young, she wanted Li Qi to help Bai Shizhong in the court. This was also the main reason why she was willing to let Bai Qiannuo and Li Qi go, because Bai Shizhong's sons had very mediocre qualifications and could not help much.
Busy, if there was a son-in-law like Li Qi, Bai Shizhong's position would be much more stable, but it's a pity that it backfired!
Her wishful thinking did not succeed. The key was that she underestimated Li Qi and did not expect that he had such a shocking plan in his heart. She sighed: "Now that the matter has come to this, what is the use of talking about it? Even if the old man is willing, he will go to court."
Many people in the family will not let go of our Bai family, including the emperor."
Li Qidao: "Those in the court have to look at the Buddha's face even if they don't look at the monk's face. I will find a way to balance this aspect."
"Is this true?"
"It's absolutely true." Li Qidao said: "This is also the main reason why I invited my mother-in-law to come today. In politics, there are no absolute enemies and no absolute friends. Naturally, there is nothing that cannot be done. There are several incidents involving the Grand Master.
Several falls have also proved this point very well. Therefore, I want my mother-in-law to help me think of a way to see how I can get the emperor to take back this imperial edict."
Yes! Grand Master Cai was able to appear four times in the beginning. This matter has not reached the point of irreversibility. I must not let the Bai family decline like this. Mrs. Bai seemed to have found a glimmer of light in her despair and closed her eyes to meditate.
Li Qi did not dare to disturb her and sat quietly aside.
After a while, Mrs. Bai suddenly opened her eyes and said: "There is no way, it just depends on whether you dare to do this."
Li Qi was overjoyed and said: "Mother-in-law, please don't provoke me at this time. As long as it is within my power, I will do whatever it takes."
Mrs. Bai said: "Qiniang."
"Qiniang?"
Li Qicuo said in astonishment, thinking, how can Qiniang help in this matter?
Mrs. Bai said: "The way is to let Qiniang serve as the economic envoy."
