Chapter 202 The Emperor Arrives (Chapter Two in One)
Fan Mansion.
Fan Shaobai sat in front of Fan Zheng's bed with a depressed look on his face, looked at his weak father, and said: "Dad, this Li Qi is too cunning. He told us that he wouldn't want Cai Minde's batch of meat, but he turned his back and said
Cai Minde cooperated and took over his batch of meat. He also said that the Taishi Mansion interceded with him. I think he must have planned it. Hmm. His appetite is really big, five hundred thousand kilograms of meat, and he actually
If he wants to take it all to himself, we will help him deal with Jade Xuan anyway. How can he enjoy such a good thing all to himself?"
Fan Zheng coughed a few times and said with a smile: "Shaobai, isn't this what business is all about? We don't have the ability. If we could think of a way to sell this batch of meat, we wouldn't do the same thing.
, Besides, what he did did not violate the contract he signed with us earlier, so don’t take it seriously, this money is nothing to us."
"Dad, that's true, but he clearly doesn't take us into his heart. I'm afraid that he will help Cai Minde deal with us in the future."
Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Although Li Qi sometimes does things to extremes, one good thing about him is that he knows how to repay kindness. When shopkeeper Wu just gave him a bite of food, he spared no effort to help Zuixian.
Of course, he also has a share in Zuixianju now, but with his ability, it couldn't be easier to kick the Qin family away. This time we finally did him a big favor. I believe in his kindness.
You will not forget it, and you have also seen his ability, so in the future, not only can you not hold a grudge against him because of this incident, but you must also try your best to make friends with him and learn more about his business methods.
Very helpful to you.”
Fan Shaobai nodded and said, "I understand, kid."
*********************
The day's plan begins in the morning.
"Ah---Brother Li, what are you doing, huh huh?"
"Hey. Madam, why are you still so shy? This is called morning exercise. I am here to help you exercise."
"No---I don't want to exercise, geez---I won't come."
"Haha, little girl. You'd better stop resisting and obey me."
"No, I want to get up."
"It's still early. Just sleep more."
"How can I sleep with you like this?"
"Hehe. You sleep on your bed and I'll do mine, okay?"
"I don't---ah----."
A shy cry came from the backyard.
........
Youdao is the town of Wenwen and the Tomb of Heroes.
But Li Qi is not afraid, because he has always believed that the word "hero" cannot be compared with him. Moreover, he does not want to be a hero. Fools know that heroes usually die early. He does not want to be a short-lived ghost.
For several days in a row, he stayed with Bai Qiannuo in the manor in the western suburbs. During the day, he made canned meat in the kitchen, and in the evening, he and Bai Qiannuo played night after night, saving up their energy for many days. Finally, he was able to get it.
freed.
Under Li Qi's training, Bai Qiannuo finally realized the beauty of love between men and women, but she was still a little shy every time, especially when facing Li Qi, who had long been suppressed, she was even more tired of dealing with it.
Bai Qiannuo, who was originally accustomed to getting up when the rooster crows every day, was forced by Li Qi to escape from the bed at three o'clock in the morning.
After Li Qi had finished breakfast with her tenderly and considerately, he reluctantly walked out of the room, feeling refreshed and full of motivation.
After coming out of the room, Li Qi walked towards the kitchen as a habit. On the way, he happened to meet Ma Qiao. He had his head folded and looked extremely depressed.
"Master Li, you came just in time. I just have something to ask you." When Ma Qiao saw Li Qi, he hurried over and said with an unhappy expression.
Li Qi asked curiously: "What's the matter?"
"Why don't you allow me to enter the kitchen?" Ma Qiao said depressedly.
It was a good thing that he didn't mention it. When he mentioned it, Li Qi became very angry and said angrily: "You have the nerve to ask, what do you mean by what you said you did in the kitchen? You followed your junior sister around all day long.
, being busy doesn't help at all, and if anyone asks your junior sister to do something, you will yell there. Now other masters have to walk around when they see your junior sister, and they also complain about you.
You said you had nothing to do all day long, why are you trying so hard to cause trouble for me?"
Ma Qiao was unconvinced and said: "Master Li, you can't blame me for this. My junior sister is also a woman after all. These old men always give my junior sister some heavy work to do. Is this what men should do?"
, if my junior sister hadn’t stopped them, I would have had to teach them a lesson, which is really unreasonable.”
Li Qi also knew about this situation, but he also agreed very much. After all, in the eyes of others, it was a very strenuous job, but for Lu Meimei, it was simply too easy. Is this called making the best use of things? However, standing still
From Ma Qiao's point of view, he was right. He patiently explained: "Don't say any more, everyone is working in division of labor and cooperation, no one is targeting your junior sister. Besides, your junior sister has always wanted to learn cooking, right?
Let me tell you, those masters are all masters, and your junior sister will definitely learn a lot by working with them."
Ma Qiao tilted his head and said: "In that case, why don't you accept my junior sister as your apprentice? Besides, my junior sister is so talented, honest and hard-working. It would be a great good thing for you to accept her as your apprentice."
Li Qi smiled and said: "As long as you don't cause any more trouble for me in the future, I will agree to accept your junior sister as my disciple."
After observing these days, Lu Meimei is indeed a capable assistant. She usually does things without any complaints and is not arrogant or impetuous. She may not be as talented as Wu Xiaoliu, but in terms of personality, she is worse than Wu Xiaoliu and the Zhuzi brothers. It was much better, so Li Qi also had the intention to accept Lu Meimei as his disciple.
Ma Qiao's face lit up with joy and he said, "Seriously?"
Li Qi glanced at him angrily, nodded, and sighed: "However, before I accept your junior sister as my disciple, I have to help her sort out something."
Ma Qiao was stunned, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Are you saying you want to help her get revenge first?"
Li Qi nodded and said: "Yes, Zui Xianju may open a branch in the south soon. Yangzhou is a must-go place, so I plan to drop by the yellow..."
"It's that old thief Huang Sanyuan." Ma Qiao said with a flash of resentment in his eyes and gritted his teeth.
"Yes, the day Zuixianju opens a branch in Yangzhou is the memorial day of Huang Sanyuan." Li Qi nodded and smiled. It is really a trivial matter for him to deal with such a character. No matter how awesome Huang Sanyuan is, he will never
Cai Minde is awesome.
Ma Qiao frowned and said, "But if you don't teach my junior sister how to cook, how will she deal with that old thief Huang?"
Li Qi shook his head and said: "Culinary skills are not a tool for revenge. If you want revenge, of course you have to rely on force to solve it."
"Master Li, your words speak to my heart. I have always thought so."
Ma Qiao nodded vigorously, then shook his head and said: "But that old thief Huang is quite powerful in Yangzhou. If you want to rely on force to solve it, I'm afraid it will be difficult."
Li Qi smiled confidently and said: "If a fierce dragon crosses the river, and it can't even deal with a small local snake, then the dragon might as well have drowned in the river, and it will have no chance of crossing the river. Don't worry, since I
If I promise you, I will definitely help you do it."
This reminded Ma Qiao. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "That's right, that's right, by the way, don't you have a fan? If you want to lend me a hand, I'll come to Yangzhou as soon as possible." He already thought about it.
In the fantasy, I mightily carry Huang Sanyuan's head to Lu Meimei, and Lu Meimei is so moved that she agrees with her body, and I can't help but laugh out loud.
Li Qi looked at the silly smile on his face and already guessed what he was thinking. He glared at him angrily and cursed: "Get out."
"Brother Li, Brother Li."
"Anan?"
Li Qi turned around and saw Chen Anan running towards him. When he ran in front of him, he asked in shock: "Anan, why are you here?"
Chen Anan gasped and said: "Brother Li, the emperor has come to our store. He wants to see you by name. You should go back to the store quickly."
"What?"
Li Qi exclaimed, and then realized what was happening. He knew that Chen Anan had met the emperor at the first-year banquet, so he couldn't be wrong. He asked, "When did the emperor come?"
Chen Anan said: "After a while, the emperor also lent me a fast horse and asked me to tell you to go quickly. Now the horse is in front of the door. You go quickly."
No wonder Chen Anan was so anxious. After all, no one dares to keep the emperor waiting these days.
Li Qi said depressedly: "But I can't ride a horse."
"ah?"
Chen Anan was stunned.
Ma Qiao suddenly laughed and said, "Don't worry about that. Don't you still have me? I also want to ride the emperor's horse to see what it feels like."
Li Qi turned around and said, "What can you do?"
...
"drive---."
"I drive your sister, is this a good idea for you?"
On the dirt road in the western suburbs, I saw a brown horse galloping past, with dust flying. There were two big men sitting on the horse. One was waving a whip in a dashing way, and the other had a little bird clinging to his back.
, holding his waist tightly with both hands, closing his eyes tightly, and kept cursing.
Really unlimited love!
It was originally half an hour's journey, but thanks to Ma Qiao's incredible riding skills, it took only a quarter of an hour to arrive at Zuixianju.
"U---."
Ma Qiao pulled the reins suddenly and came to a sudden stop at the door of Zuixianju. The horse's head tilted up, almost causing Li Qi to fall off.
As soon as Li Qi got off the horse, he felt dizzy for a while. He staggered a few steps and finally managed to stabilize his body. His stomach was so turbulent that he almost managed to avoid knocking out his internal organs.
Ma Qiao didn't seem to notice this, and was still pouring out his love for the horse, saying: "Tsk tsk, this horse is really good. This is the first time in my life that Ma Qiao has ridden such a good horse. It's so enjoyable. It's so enjoyable."
"
Li Qi wanted to slap this guy to death, but he had no time to settle accounts with him at this time. He shook his head, took a few deep breaths, and then walked inside.
"Master Li, you are here."
When Wu Furong saw Li Qi coming, he rushed to greet him. Seeing Li Qi's pale face, he worriedly said, "Huh? Why do you look so ugly?"
"Stop talking and get me a glass of water."
Wu Furong nodded and immediately asked someone to pour him a cup of tea for Li Qi.
Li Qi drank it all in one gulp, took a long breath, and whispered: "Where is the Emperor?"
Wu Furong glanced at the third floor and said: "It's on the third floor. You should hurry up. The emperor has sent people down to remind you several times."
How many times have you urged me? How long has it been? Okay. You are the emperor, I am not.
Li Qi rolled his eyes, nodded and walked upstairs.
The two guards in front of the box door of the Heaven and Earth saw Li Qi coming, and one of them hurriedly went in to report. Soon, the man came out and invited Li Qi in.
Li Qi entered and saw Song Huizong sitting on the throne in casual clothes, with five people standing beside him. Among these five people, except Zuo Boqing, the rest were not easy to mess with. The eunuchs Liang Shicheng, Gao Qiu, and
Wang Zhongling and Bai Shizhong.
Because it was not time to eat yet, there were only some refreshments and a pair of badminton rackets made of sandalwood on the table.
What are you doing? Why are these predators here?
Li Qi was stunned when he saw these people. Suddenly he heard Wang Zhongling cough, and he immediately reacted and hurriedly saluted: "Li Qi, a humble citizen, comes to see the emperor."
Song Huizong said with a hint of displeasure: "Why did you come now?"
md. I'm already fast enough. I almost didn't die just now.
Li Qi complained in his heart, but he still said: "I'm sorry to keep the emperor waiting for so long. It's just that the common people live far away, so I came a little late."
When Bai Shizhong heard what he said, the corner of his mouth twitched again. It was a twitch of distress.
"Forget it."
Song Huizong shook his head, suddenly pointed at the badminton on the table, and said with great interest: "Listen to what Wang Aiqing said, was it you who tinkered with this badminton?"
Li Qi nodded blankly.
"Not bad."
Song Huizong nodded happily and said with a smile: "Your badminton is really interesting! It's just---."
Li Qi heard that he was hesitant to speak, and hurriedly said: "Does the Emperor feel that there is something wrong with this badminton? If so, please give me some advice, and the common people will definitely correct it."
"That's not true."
Song Huizong waved his hand and said: "It's just that you need two people to play badminton. If the strength of both sides is not equal, the game will be boring."
Li Qi was confused and didn't understand what he was talking about, so he quietly gave Wang Zhongling two questioning looks.
Unexpectedly, this little move did not escape Song Huizong's eyes. He laughed, with a hint of pride between his eyebrows, and said: "Although Wang Aiqing taught me this badminton, after all, Wang Aiqing is old and can't play too much."
Long."
Wang Zhongling hurriedly saluted and said: "The emperor has given you a reward. It's because Wei Chen's golf skills are not as good as the emperor's. Every time he was beaten by the emperor, he was unable to fight back, which ruined the emperor's interest. Wei Chen really failed the divine grace."
Song Huizong said happily: "Wang Aiqing is too modest. I have to thank Aiqing for giving me such a fun thing."
Damn it! Are you so good? You have only learned for a few days and you can't meet your opponents.
Only then did Li Qi realize that Song Huizong was showing off, but he thought it was Wang Zhongling who let Song Huizong do it on purpose.
Song Huizong laughed and said: "Li Qi, your badminton is really exquisite in every aspect. I think you have hidden many skills, so I came here to learn from you today. Oh, by the way, I still want to see you today."
Your novel wine culture."
Do you all know this? You are indeed an artistic genius. If you are willing to put these talents and talents into national affairs, it will not be the shame of Jingkang, but the rule of Jingkang.
Li Qi smiled and said: "How dare the ordinary people? Being able to play badminton with the emperor is a blessing for the ordinary people. Please ask the emperor to show mercy later."
Song Huizong couldn't wait to say: "Then go find a place quickly. I will have a good fight with you today. Don't let me down."
"yes."
Li Qi saluted and thought, why not just fight in the backyard or find somewhere else. Just as he was about to ask Song Huizong to move to the backyard, he suddenly heard the sound of rapid horse hooves and Wu Furong's hoarse shout.
, "Who are you? What do you want to do?---Someone come and stop them---stop them-ah---ah---."
What happened? How could Li Qi care so much? He hurriedly walked to the window and went downstairs to take a look. He saw blood stains everywhere in the hall on the first floor. Was it human blood or dog blood? Due to the angle,
He couldn't see who had done it, but his eyes were already blazing with fire.
This sudden change also alarmed Song Huizong, who stood up and walked to the window. Seeing the scene downstairs, his stomach churned. It was the first time in his life that he saw such a disgusting scene, and he said angrily: "This is unreasonable, this is unreasonable.
"
Liang Shicheng and others were now sweating profusely and said in unison: "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Song Huizong glared and said angrily: "Such a thing happened under the emperor's feet in broad daylight. How can you tell me to calm down my anger?" Then he turned to Li Qi and said: "Li Qi, you go and find out what this is right away.
what happened?"
"yes."
Li Qi was also very anxious now. How could he open a business like this? He hurriedly walked downstairs, and as soon as he came downstairs, a fishy smell hit his face. He immediately covered his nose with his hands, but saw the tables and chairs in front of the door.
There were blood stains everywhere on the counter. I thought to myself, luckily there are no customers yet, otherwise, the reputation of Zuixianju will definitely be affected.
Li Qi looked around and suddenly saw a bloody man coming over. He was so frightened that he jumped back and shouted: "Who is coming?"
The bloody man wiped his face, stamped his feet and said, "Master Li, it's me."
"Uncle Wu?"
When Li Qi heard Wu Furong's voice, he took a closer look and saw that it was Wu Furong, but he was covered in blood now, which was extremely scary. He worriedly said: "Uncle Wu, are you okay? Is there blood on your body?"
"Oh, I'm fine, this is all bullshit." Wu Furong explained hurriedly.
After hearing this, Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief, but his chest was filled with anger. He said, "Uncle Wu, what on earth is going on?"
Wu Furong shook his head and said: "I don't know, but a group of masked men on horseback suddenly came outside the door just now. Without saying a word, they poured blood into our store."
Li Qi spread his hands and said, "Where is that person?"
Wu Furong said depressedly: "I ran away early. They ran away on horseback after splashing."
What's going on?
Li Qi was dumbfounded. There was a ball of anger in his chest, but he had nowhere to vent it. He sighed: "Go to the backyard and clean it now. Leave this place to me."
"Why."
Wu Furong nodded, and then hurriedly walked towards the backyard. The fishy smell almost killed him.
Which bastard made this shit?
Li Qi frowned and suddenly remembered a person and shouted: "Maqiao, Maqiao."
But after calling for a long time, no one was seen in Maqiao.
At this time, Li Qi was completely furious. This damn thing actually disappeared for me at this moment. If I don’t give me a reasonable explanation later, I will never tolerate him.
Frustrated.
Li Qi felt very aggrieved at this time. While helplessly arranging for people to clean the blood stains in the hall, he thought about who did this. After thinking for a while, he had two candidates in mind, the first was Cai Minde; the second was Cai Minde;
That's Wang Xuan'en. Now Cai Minde still needs help from himself, so it shouldn't be him. The only one left is Wang Xuan'en.
Thinking of this, Li Qi felt even more depressed. This bloody incident came at the right time. Unfortunately, he didn't catch anyone just now. If he could catch even one of the perpetrators, it would be a huge profit. After all, there was a boss-level person sitting on top.
Big shot, Wang Xuan'en chose a bad day to cause trouble, but he chose today to cause trouble. I really don't know whether to praise him for his unexpected actions or scold him for being extremely stupid.
But if you don't have evidence, you can't say that Wang Xuanen did it. Li Qi was unwilling to let such a good opportunity be wasted like this.
Just when Li Qi was distressed, a horse suddenly appeared in front of the door.
Li Qi looked up and saw the missing Ma Qiao. Just when he was about to curse, he saw someone lying under his butt.
Good guy, you really lived up to my expectations for you.
Li Qi immediately turned from anger to joy and hurriedly stepped forward.
Ma Qiao also jumped off the horse, lifted the man off with one hand, and threw him to the ground casually, only to hear a painful groan.
"I'm sorry, there are too many of them. I don't have enough use for my hands, so I arrested the leader. You can see if it's useful." Ma Qiao said with a smile.
"It's useful, it's really useful."
Li Qi chuckled and saw that the man was already unconscious. He panicked, wondering if this guy would die. He hurriedly said: "Maqiao, what are you going to do with him?"
"I didn't do anything to him."
Ma Qiao also had a confused expression on his face and said: "I just kicked him, then put him on the horse and sat on him. This guy won't be knocked unconscious by me, right?"
What about sitting dizzy?
Li Qi asked again: "How long have you been sitting while he ran?"
"It didn't take long, so I rushed back quickly."
Li Qi completely understood now. I almost fainted when I was sitting behind you. This person was forced to vomit out the food he had eaten the day before when you were sitting behind him. He glanced at Ma Qiao, dumbfounded, and walked to that person again.
On the side, he turned the person over and saw that he was still wearing a mask. He reached out and took off the mask. He saw that the person was about twenty-seven or seventy-eight years old. He was pretty good-looking, with sharp edges and dark skin, and a slight beard under his chin.
The foam at the corner of his mouth also confirmed Li Qi's judgment just now.
This man was really knocked unconscious by Maqiao.
At this time, many people came to watch the excitement in front of the door, pointing at the person and whispering to each other.
When Li Qi saw it, he asked Ma Qiao to drag the man inside first, and then ordered several bartenders to close the door. After all, the emperor was inside now, and it would not be good to attract too many people's attention.
After the door was closed, Li Qi originally wanted to drag this man to the third floor, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it. If this man knew that the emperor was here, he might not speak easily, and Song Huizong might not want others to know.
He's here.
I still have to put on a show to show to the boss above.
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Li Qi's mouth, and he said to Ma Qiao: "Wake him up quickly."
"It's easy."
Ma Qiao directly picked up a bucket of water from the bartender who was cleaning the floor next to him, and poured it towards the man.
There was a crash.
The man was hit by the cold water and woke up immediately, coughing violently.
"Cough cough cough!"
Li Qi directly kicked the man in the stomach, grabbed the man's hair, and said with a sinister smile: "You are so brave, how dare you make trouble in my store." As he said that, he moved towards the man again.
Ma Qiao said: "Ma Qiao, drag this guy to the kitchen, chop it up and feed it to the dogs. Damn it, how many dogs have to be killed to get so much dog blood, and now I can use your meat."
And comfort the souls of those dogs.”
