After Cai You left, Li Qi asked the servants to go back to rest, and then said to Ma Qiao: "Ma Qiao, go to the Long Guard Army immediately and pass my order to ask Niu Gao to send some cronies to secretly protect the Qin Mansion.
, Oh, by the way, let him go to the Divine Guard Army to transfer some people to my manor in the western suburbs."
Ma Qiao said in astonishment: "Commander Bu, how dare Cai You come?"
Li Qi sighed: "There are two types of people in the world that are the most difficult to deal with, one is a fool, and the other is a lunatic, because once you mess with them, you will either subdue them or be subdued by them. It is difficult to find out which one is the best."
Three ways to come."
Seeing Li Qi's solemn expression, Ma Qiao knew that this matter was no small matter, so he responded, turned his back and went out.
Li Qi sat down on the steps, sighed, and said to himself: "Cai You, Cai You, you really bully others too much. If you can't kill me this time, I will definitely make you miserable in the future."
die."
In fact, he originally didn't want to bring the matter to such an irreversible point, so he just asked someone to lead the dog and hide behind him, but Cai You didn't give him time to think at all, so he had no other choice.
Moreover, Cai You's arrogance made him intolerable, which resulted in this situation.
Although he and Wang Fu have been fighting, they were all behind the scenes, and he mainly had conflicts with Wang Xuanen. He had not yet confronted Wang Fu. He could usually laugh and joke when they met, but this time the situation was completely different.
It was different, he didn't have any confidence at all.
Suddenly, the sound of light footsteps came from behind, and Li Qi said without looking back: "Madam, I am really tired. If you want to read me, please stay until tomorrow. Thank you."
Mrs. Qin was startled, then sighed softly and said sternly: "Li Qi, this matter is not a trivial matter. Uncle Cai will never let it go. I once heard my father say that even the king has to tolerate him, let alone
It's you, and this matter seems to have something to do with the emperor. How about you take the red slave and sister Feng out overnight to hide for a while, and wait and see how things develop before making plans."
Obviously, she had just been eavesdropping from behind.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Madam, if I wanted to leave, I would have left ten thousand years ago, and I would never have stayed here until now."
Mrs. Qin said: "All power and wealth are fleeting. You don't even have your life anymore. Even if I give you more money, what's the use? If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."
Li Qi shook his head and said: "Do you think I miss these things? I am stupid and have put a heavy burden on myself. If I can't even deal with others, then how can I have the face to fight with God? Forget it, I will fight with you.
I said, you won’t understand, I want to rest, you should go and rest early.”
He stood up as he spoke.
"Brother! Big brother!"
Li Qi looked up and saw Ji Hongnu wearing pajamas and holding a lantern, walking over in a hurry.
"Hongnu, why are you here?" Li Qi asked in surprise.
"Brother!"
Ji Hongnu hurriedly came over and said with tears in his eyes: "Brother, what happened? I heard that many people came just now. Are you injured?"
Li Qi held her hand and smiled: "Brother, aren't you standing here well? Don't worry. Oh, you can send someone to the college to ask for leave tomorrow, but don't go there for the next few days."
Although Ji Hongnu didn't know what happened, she read something in Li Qi's eyes and nodded: "I understand."
"Look, you don't need to put on more clothes in the middle of the night. Let's talk about it after we go back to the house." Li Qi hugged Ji Hongnu, and after taking only two steps, he suddenly turned around and said seriously: "Madam, what do you want?
Don’t want to go together?”
Mrs. Qin glared at him, this person really didn't know the heights of the world, and he didn't forget to anger me at this time. She spat, turned around and left.
...
Li Qi's worry was not that he was frightening himself. Just after the fifth watch, someone came from the palace and asked him to go to the morning court today.
When Li Qi heard the news, he really had the urge to die. He hid in bed and refused to come out until he died. It wasn't that he was afraid, but he really didn't get enough sleep.
Later, it was only after Ji Hongnu's persuasion that he climbed out of bed in despair. Under Ji Hongnu's service, he put on his official clothes, made two buns, and went into the palace.
But just halfway through, a carriage caught up with him and stopped beside him. Brother Qiu's voice came from inside: "Get in the car."
"oh."
Li Qi got off the horse, got into the carriage, and said to Gao Qiu with a smile on his face: "Good morning, Lieutenant Commander."
Gao Qiu glared at him and asked: "Thank you for being able to laugh, what happened last night? How did I hear that the British Duke and a large group of people went to the Qin Mansion immediately last night?"
Li Qi knew that Gao Qiu also wanted to help him, otherwise he would not have taken a detour to find him, so he did not hide anything and told Gao Qiu the truth. Of course, the exciting process of scolding in the middle was naturally omitted, otherwise he would still have
I'm really worried that Brother Qiu's little sweetheart won't be able to bear it.
After hearing this, Gao Qiu slapped his hand on the coffee table, shaking the cup so hard that it almost fell, and said: "Is your brain broken? Do you know that you went to offend the first rank of the dynasty for a geisha?"
You've gotten into big trouble."
Li Qi was sprayed with saliva and was extremely depressed. He said: "Lieutenant, things have happened. What do you want me to do?"
Gao Qiu was so angry that he almost didn't lift it up, and quickly drank a cup of tea, "I always thought that Kang'er's ability to get into trouble was second to none in the capital, but compared with you, he is really - really not as good as you.
.”
When Yanei heard this, he was so sad! Li Qidao said: "There is nothing I can do about it. The British father clearly wants to steal my woman, so I can't give it up."
Gao Qiu said: "Nonsense, your woman is nothing more than a singing prostitute. With your current status, what kind of woman do you want? Besides, you are not very close to the daughter of the right prime minister, so why go there?"
For messing with those women, I really don't know whether to call you smart or confused."
What he said was actually not wrong. After all, for people at their level, women are really just accessories. Unfortunately, Li Qi was a different kind. He said: "Liu Qi, you asked me to come up here just to scold me, right?
Things are already like this, so please help me find a solution."
"Since you are capable of causing trouble, then you should find a way to solve it yourself. I have no choice." Gao Qiu snorted angrily.
Damn it! When did Brother Qiu become so inhumane? Li Qi curled his lips.
Gao Qiu glanced at this guy and was not angry at all. He said: "Okay, okay, just think that I am afraid of you. Let's do this. If the British Duke really reports it to the emperor later, you will
I refuse to admit it. Anyway, the emperor has not publicly said that he will give the title of Yinu to Cai You. Anyone who does not know is not guilty. I believe that the emperor will not blame you. If you continue to show off to the British minister, I will ask Tong Taiwei to help you.
You said interceding, I believe it won't be a big problem, but please leave that woman alone."
If I want to do this, then why do I need your help? Li Qi said oh.
Gao Qiu glared and said, "Are you still going to take care of that woman?"
Li Qi hurriedly shook his head and said perfunctorily: "No, no, I already know I was wrong." He was in no mood to argue with Gao Qiu anymore.
Gao Qiu sighed and said: "You, you, although this matter is not a big deal. It is impossible for the emperor to punish you for this, but you have to understand that the British Duke is not the only one who wants to deal with you now, but also
There is a tiger watching covetously from the side. If you continue like this, your life in the future will probably be even more difficult."
Li Qi frowned and said, "The lieutenant is talking about the king's prime minister?"
"I didn't say anything. You can do it yourself. Go down. I'll get annoyed when I see you." Gao Qiu waved his hand.
Li Qi said aggrievedly: "Lieutenant, I haven't slept all night, otherwise..."
"No need to talk. Stop the car and let him get out."
Day. This brother Qiu is so ruthless. Li Qi was full of tears and looked at brother Qiu affectionately, but he was stared back by Gao Qiu. He was unwilling to go on, but his mood became...
It was extremely heavy. If Wang Fu and Cai You attacked him at the same time, he really didn't know if he could withstand it.
...
As soon as he entered the palace gate, Li Qi suddenly saw Cai Sui standing by the wall, with his hands in front of his belly and his head lowered, as if he was asleep.
This guy couldn't be here to bring bad luck to me, right?
Just when Li Qi was confused, Cai Sui suddenly opened his eyes and said with a smile, "You're here."
Li Qi was slightly startled, then stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "Second Master."
Cai Sui stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go."
Li Qi was filled with doubts, so he said "oh" and walked inside with Cai Sui.
Cai Sui glanced at Li Qi and said with a smile: "You are really outstanding. As soon as my eldest brother came back, you almost made him angry."
It can't be such an exaggeration. Li Qi said sarcastically: "Second Master, I really didn't mean to make the British Duke angry, but---, alas, let's not talk about it. Does the Grand Master know?"
Cai Sui smiled and said: "My eldest brother's roof is about to be lifted off. How can dad not know?"
"What did the Grand Master say?"
Cai Sui sighed and said: "You don't understand my eldest brother. Regarding this matter, even if dad comes forward, he can't persuade him. Moreover, you made him so angry yesterday. My dad and I tried to persuade him for a long time, but eldest brother still can't.
I refuse to listen. But dad asked me to tell you that this matter is not a big deal. The emperor will not punish you for this. At most, he will just give you a few words. If you take the overall situation into consideration and give up when you need to, dad will help you in the future.
If you improve your relationship with my eldest brother, everything depends on your choice."
Li Qi frowned. What he was worried about now was not himself. He was also a third-grade official after all, so how could he fall down at his word? What he was most worried about was Feng Yinu, and what these snakes, ghosts and cow gods thought about this matter.
He really didn't want to make too many enemies because of this. He asked tentatively: "Second Master, don't you blame me?"
"How can I blame you for such a thing? You don't know. When my father and I heard that you and your eldest brother almost started fighting over a woman, we thought we were dreaming." Cai Sui said, and suddenly said: "But
What you did is really too much. When you treat my eldest brother like this, do you take our Cai family into consideration? Even if my father wants to help you, he can't help you."
Li Qi sighed: "Second Master, you don't know something. The British Duke couldn't help but want to make Yinu a slave at that time. He also mentioned the Red Lady, and he was the one who took action first. I was forced to fight back in self-defense."
Cai Suan waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about this. I didn't want to get involved in this matter. Dad asked me to come. Just tell me what you plan to do."
"Step by step."
"Then you plan to have your own way?"
Li Qi said nothing.
"That's all, that's all. Anyway, I don't plan to take care of this matter, and I can't do it. You can do whatever you like." Cai Sui sighed, and suddenly asked curiously: "When did you get along with Lady Feng? Why can't I wait?
Know?"
Sweating! I forgot that this guy also wanted to get his hands on Feng Yinu. Li Qi chuckled: "Come to think of it, it's all thanks to the second master that I was able to kiss Fangze."
"Where do you start talking about this?"
"When we were preparing for the first-year banquet, didn't you ask Lady Feng and me to prepare for the dance? It started from that time." Li Qi said half-truthfully.
Cai Sui was dumbfounded and regretted. He dared to help push the woman he admired most out of the house. But at that time, how could he have thought that this cook could counterattack the princes and nobles like them? He couldn't help but glare at Li Qi.
He glanced at me and said, "You're such a handsome boy."
"No, no, everything is thanks to the second master!" Li Qi chuckled, thinking silently in his heart, keep a low profile, you must keep a low profile at this time. (To be continued.)
