If this had been the case before, let alone Mrs. Qin, Li Qi would have thought it was a joke, but it is different now. Li Qi had already confessed his love to Mrs. Qin, and it could be said to be half-truth and half-false.
But no matter what, Mrs. Qin was going crazy, and there was another surge in her chest.
Gulu!
Li Qi couldn't help but make a muffled sound in his throat, and saw that Mrs. Qin was about to erupt. If it didn't ease, someone would get out of the garden next. His face changed, and he said seriously: "Madam, it seems
You still understand too little from it."
Mrs. Qin was stunned and looked at Li Qi in surprise.
Li Qi continued: "As a son of an official, you have to be able to face all rumors calmly. The most taboo thing in the officialdom is to mess up your position. Just now I just tested you casually, and you are so angry. How can this be?
Okay, you have to be like me, see it or not, see it or not, what is this called? This is called not being surprised by honor or disgrace."
Testing? Mrs. Qin glanced at Li Qi suspiciously and said, "I really don't know which of your words is true and which is false. In fact, I just plan to give the 20,000 yuan to Li Gang."
"Wow! Madam, are you mistaken? I'm just saying it casually. Just say thank you for such a small thing. At most, I'll buy him a pig's knuckle and give it to him. I mean, you asked for 20,000 yuan.
It’s twenty thousand guan, not two guan.”
Li Qi danced excitedly.
Mrs. Qin snorted, covered her lips and giggled: "You said just now that you are not shocked by honor or disgrace, but I see you are more excited than me."
"This ---." Li Qi quibbled: "This honor and disgrace is honor and disgrace. If someone praises me a thousand times, I won't gain an extra piece of flesh. If someone insults me a thousand times, I can also insult him ten thousand times.
But this money is different. If someone insults or praises me with a thousand gu, should I use 10,000 gu to insult or praise him? This is what a fool would do."
Mrs. Qin said: "Whether you bring this money with you or not, why are you so nervous?"
Li Qi snorted angrily: "People who say this to you usually want to get some money from you. Indeed, this money will not be brought with you during life or death, but what do I need money for when I am alive?"
?What should I do with money after death? But the problem is between life and death. This money is very important. It is absolutely impossible to have no money. What kind of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are free of charge? I am a chef, you tell me
Can you not regard money as chastity? You take the chastity I gave you and give it to Li Gang. Do you think this is appropriate?"
"What, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Qin's face flushed with a faint blush. She felt her head hurt after talking to Li Qi for a while, and said, "Listen to me first."
Li Qidao: "Only 20,000 yuan, I think this is a mistake in itself."
Mrs. Qin said: "Then I must give it away."
"Since you are so determined, you should finish your words first and then we can discuss it carefully." Li Qi said depressedly.
Mrs. Qin shook her head with a smile and said: "You should know very well about my father. In any case, he still messed up the emperor's first encore. Although my father has been dismissed from his official position, I think the emperor's heart
I’m still not very happy, but the imperial court is about to establish a Legislative Yuan, so I plan to donate 20,000 yuan to the emperor in the name of Zui Xianju to establish a Legislative Yuan.”
Li Qi furrowed his brows and said, "Do you want to use these 20,000 guan to eliminate the resentment in the emperor's heart?"
Mrs. Qin nodded and said, "Although I don't know if this can completely eliminate the resentment in the Emperor's heart, it can at least allow the Emperor to see the loyalty of our Wang family."
Li Qi glanced sideways at Mrs. Qin and said, "Madam, I really don't see that you have a political mind."
Mrs. Qin said with a hint of shyness: "Actually---I also learned this from Qiniang."
Li Qi asked in astonishment: "Qiniang?"
Mrs. Qin said: "Isn't this celebration banquet for your triumphant return also paid for by Zuixianju?"
"Don't mention this to me. I feel angry when I mention it. If I were here, why would I agree?" Li Qi snorted and said with a depressed look on his face: "Actually, Qiniang still has many things worth learning from you.
For example, making money is not just about losing money."
Mrs. Qin said: "I know I won't make money, so these 20,000 yuan should be regarded as all my shares."
Li Qi was stunned and said with tears in his eyes: "Don't say that. Your shares are more than 20,000 yuan. I'm just saying it. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Isn't it just 20,000 yuan? It's such a big deal. How much do I have to earn?"
Year."
Mrs. Qin pursed her lips and did not answer.
Alas. This woman is really a waste of money. Each one is more powerful than the other. Li Qi shook his head helplessly and said: "Actually, I don't object to you doing this, and I also think it is right for you to do this. Although the emperor is magnanimous, he is after all.
The emperor must be very unhappy after suffering such a big loss. In fact, it is very difficult for him to do this. Twenty thousand guan is enough for peace of mind."
Mrs. Qin smiled and said, "Do you agree with what I do?"
So what if you don't agree? Li Qidao: "I have never objected, I just think the money is a bit too much."
Mrs. Qin said: "I don't know how much it is, but I only have 20,000 yuan in hand, so I gave it as a gift."
"Madam is so generous." Li Qi sighed and said, "Okay, I will arrange this."
Mrs. Qin nodded and said, "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome. You just told me this because you wanted me to help you."
Mrs. Qin smiled softly and did not answer this, which was obviously her acquiescence.
Li Qi took out the hosta again, handed it over, and said: "Twenty thousand guans are just like floating clouds in your eyes, so this hosta should not be said to be valuable."
Mrs. Qin was stunned, her eyes seemed to say, you can come back with mercy.
Li Qi's eyes flashed with pride. What do you know? You just call it maximizing interests. He added: "The way to be an official is to first know how to ask for help. When asking for help, you must act like asking for help. But not everyone has the obligation.
Help you."
Mrs. Qin knew that if she didn't agree, Master Li would start a long speech again. She smiled bitterly, stretched out her hand to take the hosta, and said, "Thank you."
Li Qi chuckled and said, "How about I send Buddha to the West and put it on for you?"
Mrs. Qin hurriedly waved her hands and said, "That's not necessary."
"Oh, that's really regrettable." Li Qi rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "Anyway, now that the rain has passed and the weather has cleared up, you don't have to worry too much."
Mrs. Qin breathed out softly and said with a relaxed face: "Yes! Although dad has been dismissed from his post, he has been away from those troubles. As the saying goes, a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise."
This is not necessarily true. Li Qiqian laughed a few times and said: "I only agree with this, but it is a blessing in disguise. As for staying away from those disturbing people, I don't quite agree."
"How do you say this?"
Mrs. Qin looked at Li Qi curiously.
Li Qidao: "It's the same sentence. How can this person live in this world without worries all his life? If he wants to avoid trouble, he can only do it in the other way. He can also do something to others, and he can pre-emptively create trouble."
Mrs. Qin asked confused: "How do you say this?"
Li Qi coughed twice and said: "That's right, I plan to push Uncle Wang to be Mo Sheng's leader, oh, that is, similar to the leader in martial arts novels."
"What?"
Mrs. Qin exclaimed.
Li Qi quickly took a step back and said fearfully: "Madam, you won't hit me, will you?"
If Mrs. Qin was so rude and arrogant, she would have been stunned. Li Qi paused countless times and said in confusion: "My father is a Confucian scholar."
Li Qi said carelessly: "He is a Confucian scholar, and the country has not issued a certificate to him. I have my own way."
Mrs. Qin said: "But why do you do this?"
Li Qidao: "Now that Qin Hui has used Confucian newspapers to gain support from many Confucian scholars, he will definitely continue to suppress other schools of thought in order to gain the support of Confucian scholars in the world. I must stop him, but most of the officials in the court now are Confucianists.
Zhongren, other schools of thought still lack a leader."
When Mrs. Qin heard the name Qin Hui, she frowned and said, "Then why do you have to choose my father?"
Li Qidao: "Because Uncle Wang is the most suitable candidate. He is very proficient in many aspects of Mohism and is highly respected. After all, the scientific examination has not been made public."
Mrs. Qin asked again: "Then my father agreed?"
"No."
"It's okay, it's okay." Mrs. Qin patted her chest gently.
"Wow! Madam, you said you learned to face it just now, but how long has passed and you have changed back again."
Mrs. Qin sighed softly: "Facing trouble does not mean looking for trouble to face. If it is as you said, once my father becomes the leader of this Mohism or other schools, there will definitely be more troubles. My father
You are not young anymore, wouldn't it be better to enjoy your old age like Uncle Bai?"
Li Qi smiled and said, "But I don't think Uncle Wang will object."
Mrs. Qin asked: "Why?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Intuition. Because as long as you step into this circle, no one can escape unscathed, because everyone is jealous. Even if you have no intention of harming others, no one will believe this. The only
The best way is to eliminate the root cause."
Mrs. Qin shook her head and said: "But I feel that my father will not agree. The scientific examination has already made my father suffer."
Li Qi chuckled: "Then we'll see, but if your father agrees, I hope you can come out and help."
"How can I help?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Write a story!"
"Write a story?"
Li Qi snorted and said: "First of all, we must suppress the Confucian Press to ensure that the status of Song Dynasty Times Weekly is unshakable, and our advantage is my martial arts novels, which are the most attractive, so this time we plan to
Open two books in a row and serialize them in two newspapers and periodicals at the same time. The people only have so much money in their hands, and I will not allow them to have extra money to buy other newspapers and periodicals."
As he spoke, he smiled and said: "But you also know that my strength is using my mouth, not my hands, so I need your help. You will be responsible for one of the stories, and Yi Nu will be responsible for the other story. With these two
This story will clear the way, and Uncle Wang will have more capital in his hands."
Mrs. Qin thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about this later."
At this moment, the maid suddenly came and announced: "Sir, the horse guard is here."
Li Qi was stunned for a moment and muttered: "Strange, why is he here? Isn't he on vacation? Is there anything else in the world that can make him leave Meimei?"
After a while, Ma Qiao hurried in.
Li Qidao: "What's the matter?"
Ma Qiao glanced at Mrs. Qin, first said hello to Mrs. Qin, and then said a few words in Li Qi's ear.
Li Qi's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said, "So fast?"
Ma Qiao hummed.
Mrs. Qin saw Li Qi's expression was different and asked, "What happened?"
Li Qi snorted and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I have to deal with it."
Mrs. Qin said hurriedly: "Business matters are important, you go ahead. I will tell my mother later."
Li Qidao: "Then Mrs. Lao, I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, he and Ma Qiao hurriedly left. (To be continued...)
