Chapter 1516 What a coincidence! What a coincidence!
Give---give a hammer? Where is the sister you promised?
Li Qi was completely confused. Is this a magical situation?
He even doubted whether he was dreaming. He couldn't help but turned to look at Bai Qiannuo. Seeing that Bai Qiannuo was also dumbfounded, he realized that he was not dreaming. However, he couldn't understand at all that the battle was so big that even the imperial edict was required.
Oh, just to give him a hammer? He can understand giving him a spatula, but he really can’t understand the hammer. +
Moreover, he was a powerful privy minister, and the emperor actually sent him to repair the house. This was simply ridiculous.
"Privy Envoy, Privy Envoy."
Seeing that Li Qi was still refusing to accept the imperial edict, Wei Song whispered twice in an anxious tone.
Li Qi raised his head and looked at Wei Song with an unkind expression.
Wei Song looked very worried and quickly sent the imperial edict to him.
Who the hell wants to accept this imperial edict? Li Qi turned a blind eye and said, "Eunuch Wei, did you get the imperial edict wrong?"
Wei Song said in fear: "The Privy Councilor is joking, how can a villain have the courage?"
Li Qi looked at Wei Song suspiciously and said, "That means someone is pretending to pass on the imperial edict. What kind of trick is this?"
This Privy Councilor really dared to say anything. Wei Song felt anxious for Li Qi when he heard this, and said: "It is a capital crime to falsely pass on the imperial edict. This imperial edict was written by the Emperor himself. If the Privy Councilor does not believe it, he will know after just one look."
.Besides, there is this---."
At this point, he was too embarrassed to continue. He saw a little eunuch walking up with a wooden tray, covered with yellow cloth, but the yellow cloth was not gold or silver jewelry, but a hammer.
Li Qi looked at the hammer and almost burst into tears. You are a hammer, you don't want to be insulted like this. He tilted his head and was so angry that he even accepted Mao's imperial edict.
Wei Song held the imperial edict in his hands, shaking very violently.
Bai Qiannuo quickly took it and said with a smile, "Thank you."
"How dare you, how dare you."
Wei Song finally breathed a sigh of relief and added: "The emperor also specifically ordered that no one else is allowed to go - I say goodbye, I mean, say goodbye."
After that, he left in a hurry.
Because Li Qi picked up the hammer.
"You bastard! If you have the ability, don't look away. I'll beat you to death."
Li Qi held up the hammer, with a ferocious face, and cursed endlessly.
Bai Qiannuo smiled and shook his head. He stepped forward and said, "Okay, okay, they are also here under orders. Why are you angry with them?"
Li Qi glanced at Bai Qiannuo, put down his hand, looked at the hammer in his hand, and said, "What happened? Is the emperor possessed by evil spirits?"
Bai Qiannuo quickly glanced around and said, "Don't say these words again. If others listen, it will cause a lot of trouble."
"Then what do you think is going on?" Li Qi said on the verge of tears, "If you don't have anything to do, give me a hammer. Why don't you want me to hit someone? My majestic King Yanyun wants me to repair the house.
Can normal people explain this?"
"Haven't you even swept the streets? Why bother with this?"
"Yes, I even swept the streets, why do you care about this!" Li Qi said, "No, I swept the streets. But there was a reason at the time, and the reason was also very strange. This
There are weird rewards and punishments. But now it’s completely inexplicable. Moreover, Cai You was there to shelter from the wind and rain. The most important thing is that I can sweep the floor, but I can’t repair the house."
Bai Qiannuo frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "That's true, why did the emperor suddenly issue such an imperial edict?"
Li Qidao: "Do you think it was the Supreme Emperor's idea?"
Bai Qiannuo shook his head and said, "Even if it was the Supreme Emperor's idea, there must be a reason."
Li Qi nodded: "That's true."
Bai Qiannuo said: "Do you think it has something to do with the reform of the scientific examination system?"
"It's really possible."
Li Qi blinked and said: "Is this the emperor's deliberate revenge on me? He is too naive. Like father, like son. No, I have to go to the palace to ask for an explanation."
Bai Qiannuo stopped him in a hurry and said: "Husband, if the emperor wants to give you an explanation, he can just summon you to the palace. Why bother to get an imperial edict? It is obvious that the emperor just doesn't want you to ask him, even if you go, he won't
You can definitely see it, why don’t you wait until tomorrow to see it.”
Li Qi frowned, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "Okay, I'll go and take a look tomorrow. This hammer has been put away. It's a royal hammer after all. From now on, you can go to the emperor to report the debt if you hit someone."
Whenever this happens, he will strive to maximize profits.
...
...
Early the next morning.
"Zhao Kai, you idiot, actually teased me like this. Just wait, I must get back this."
Li Qi sat in the carriage and kept talking about curses on Zhao Kai. He didn't even think about it. He had teased Zhao Kai more than once or twice. If Zhao Kai thought like him, then he would probably
Died several times.
After a while, Ma Qiao, who was driving the carriage, suddenly said: "Privy Envoy, we are here."
This was not a glorious thing. Li Qi did not dare to bring many people here, and Zhao Kai had given orders, so he brought Ma Qiao alone.
Li Qi subconsciously wanted to get out of the car, but he just raised his buttocks and sat down again, asking in a low voice: "Maqiao, is there anyone around?"
"No."
Li Qi then got out of the car with a hammer, looked around and said, "I'm sure this is here. There are no houses over here."
Ma Qiao shook his head and said, "I don't know this either, but according to the address given by the emperor, the former residence of Taoist Wuji should be halfway up this hill." As he spoke, he pointed to the hill in front of him.
Li Qi raised his eyes and said, "I didn't see the house either."
"I do not know then."
Li Qi scratched his head hard and said: "Never mind it, I'm here anyway, just treat it as exercise. Let's go."
Ma Qiao said: "Didn't the Emperor say that no one would help?"
"Who knows in these barren mountains and ridges. Let's go, let's go."
Li Qi jumped down with the hammer in hand and walked towards the hill in front of him.
After sweeping the street, he came to build a house. Ma Qiao felt that he, a master, was really frustrated, but he had no choice but to deal with such a boss, so he could only follow.
This hill is not very high. For Li Qina, who has conquered the mountains in Jiaozhi, it is really like walking on flat ground. But the question is where is this house?
Li Qi and Ma Qiao searched for a long time but didn't see a single house.
"That's weird, are we looking in the wrong place?"
Li Qi couldn't help but look at Maqiao again, as if to say, are you sure you are here?
Ma Qiao said with great certainty: "This must be the right place, unless the emperor wrote it wrong." He was suddenly startled as he spoke, pointing to the left and said: "That man looks like Qin Shaozai?"
"Qin Shaozai? Are you kidding---eh? It looks a bit similar."
Li Qi turned around and saw a piece of flat land halfway up the mountain in the distance. There was a small pavilion on the flat land. There was another person standing outside the small pavilion. It was not Qin Hui. He frowned secretly. It was strange that he was here.
Could it be that the emperor sent him to supervise me, or that he knew about this and came specifically to see my joke.
At this time, Qin Hui also discovered them. He waved and shouted: "Privy Envoy, Privy Envoy."
It's over, it's over, people will definitely laugh today. Li Qi waved awkwardly and walked over. After a while, he came to Qin Hui and asked with a smile: "Qin Shaozai. Why are you here?"
The corners of Qin Hui's mouth twitched and he said: "This - I have more free time today, so I came here for a walk and breathed in the fresh air. By the way, Privy Councilor, why are you here?"
Is it true or not? Li Qipi said with a smile: "I have been researching a new dish recently, and I came here to look for ingredients."
"I see."
Qin Hui nodded, suddenly pointed at Li Qi's hand, and said, "Shouldn't you bring a sickle or a hoe when you go up the mountain? Why is the Privy Council here with a hammer?"
"Uh... there is no way. In this three-thirds of an acre of land in Tokyo, many places belong to the imperial family. Aren't I afraid of making a mistake? To be honest, my hammer is a royal hammer, given by the emperor.
, Beat the sycophants at the top, and discipline the unruly people at the bottom."
While Li Qi was fooling around, he raised his hammer and shook it in front of Qin Hui, with a hint of threat in his tone.
Ma Qiao heard it funny. Why did you beat the sycophant? Isn't it just for you to repair your house?
He held back his laughter, but Qin Hui burst into laughter.
Li Qi was stunned and said: "Why is Qin Shaozai laughing?"
"What a coincidence, what a coincidence, what a coincidence."
As Qin Hui spoke, he turned around and went into the pavilion. He heard a few clanging sounds and saw him picking up a big ax from the ground.
Li Qi hit him in the chest and said fearfully: "What do you want to do?"
Qin Hui walked over with an ax in his hand and said: "My ax was also given by the emperor. It can also be called a royal axe. Hehehe, but the emperor did not ask me to kill sycophants at the top and punish the unruly people at the bottom."
This ax is much stronger than the hammer in Li Qi's hand.
Li Qideng felt that he was extremely weak. The two looked at each other awkwardly and suddenly burst out laughing at the same time.
Qin Hui said: "It seems that the purpose of the Privy Council's trip is the same as mine."
Li Qi asked: "Then do you know why the emperor did this?"
Qin Hui said depressedly: "I'm about to ask the Privy Councilor."
After the two of them finished speaking, they sighed at the same time.
Li Qi added: "But I have been searching here for a long time, but I still can't find the Taoist priest's former residence."
Qin Hui pointed forward and said, "Isn't it right there?"
Li Qi followed his hand and said, "Where?"
Qin Hui said: "It's right behind this pavilion, but it has been burned to the ground. There are only some burnt remains left."
"remains?"
Li Qi took a sharp breath and said: "Then we are not here to repair the house, but to build it!"
Qin Hui nodded and said, "You can say that."
Fuck! Are you kidding me? Li Qi said expectantly: "Qin Shaozai, I heard that you come from a poor family, so building a house shouldn't be a problem."
Qin Hui shook his head and said: "Qin is so embarrassed. He just stood here for a while and didn't know how to start."
This time it was completely over. Li Qi rolled his eyes and said in disappointment: "It's really embarrassing."
What are you talking about? It’s true that I came from a poor family, and you are no better than me. I am also a scholar after all, and you, a cook, are ashamed of me? Qin Hui asked: "Not even the Privy Council Envoy?"
Li Qi got angry, stretched out his hands and said, "Look at my slender fingers, do I look like a house builder?"
Qin Hui said: "What should we do?"
"how could I know."
Li Qi said angrily: "I thought it was repairing, just knocking on it twice. Who knew it was building a house? Besides, we only have a hammer and an axe, not even a saw. How can we build this? The emperor must not have it."
After building the house, we don’t understand anything, so we should go back and discuss it carefully with the emperor before making a decision. I wonder what Shaozai thinks?"
Qin Hui nodded solemnly and said: "What the Privy Envoy said makes sense, and I also have this intention."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Privy Envoy, Qin Shaozai."
Li Qi turned his head to look, his eyes opened sharply, and he exclaimed: "A saw?" (To be continued...)
