Since this was designed by Li Qi and Qin Hui, Zhao Huan was not suspicious. As for Li Gang, even if he was suspicious, there was no evidence. To say the least, even if he had evidence, based on his current status,
If he wanted to confront Li Qigang, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg. He couldn't bear it if Li Qi sneezed casually. In the current DPRK-China situation, in terms of one-on-one, only Cai You dared to plot against Li Qi, but in the end he would always
It was Li Qi who betrayed him, and the fight between the two became a scenery in the DPRK.
After the matter was clearly explained, Zhao Huan took Li Qi and sat down side by side. Now that Li Qi was his most trusted think tank, he naturally had to treat him differently. He smiled and said: "Li Qi, you have rested for many days, and you just know that
The King of Japan wants to accompany those envoys to watch the semi-finals of the national competition, so you can go with me."
The semifinals he was talking about were the heavyweight confrontation between Qiyunshe VS Hezhongshe. The two teams were in the same bottom half, and as everyone expected, they both easily entered the semifinals. As for the next
In the first half of the zone, the Shayue team is unparalleled. Their top scorer, Mengsha, tops the scorer list with 30 goals. Even the Zhang brothers are far behind. It’s really an exaggeration. In fact, according to the original schedule, this
This game should have ended on the eve of the New Year, but in order to promote the Cuju competition, Li Qi arranged the game during the Chinese New Year, so that envoys from other countries could enjoy the game.
Although the official negotiations have been completed, Zhao Huan is really tired of dealing with those envoys these days. You know, he had almost nothing to do before, and suddenly the workload increased so much that he couldn't adapt. So,
He hoped that Li Qi could help him share some of the burden, because whenever Li Qi was around, he would feel much more at ease.
However, Li Qi is not willing to be fooled by this. The benefits have already been obtained. What do you want to do? Why go? I have to go back to accompany my wife. I don’t know if I can find time in the future. He said with an apologetic smile:
"Your Highness, not to mention accompanying you, I also really want to watch this game. However, I have already agreed with Wang Shangshu that I will go to their house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow. Isn't this---, haha, I am the official
There’s nothing I can do to help!”
What are you saying about New Year greetings? You are obviously just trying to be lazy. Wang Zhongling is several levels below you now. If he wants to pay New Year greetings, he will go to your house! Zhao Huan saw that Li Qi didn’t want to go, so he didn’t embarrass him because he had already agreed to do so.
Li Qi assisted. He was at the helm. Moreover, Li Qi had been tired for a year and finally had a few days off. He had to take a breather. So Zhao Huan didn't say much and let him rest at home.
The two took this opportunity to discuss some details in more depth.
After the conversation, Li Qi left first.
As soon as he left the house, Qin Hui smiled and said, "Sir, after today, the relationship between Li Gang and Geng Nazhong has been forged. Now he is really annoyed. I don't think Geng Nazhong will let it go."
Li Qi smiled softly and said: "Li Gang still underestimated the status of Geng Nazhong in the heart of the prince. In fact, even without me, the prince may not really sue Geng Nazhong to the court. The most he can do is drive him out of Honglu Temple."
Qin Hui nodded slightly. He had just seen that Zhao Huan scolded Geng Nazhong on the surface, but in fact it was just for show. The purpose was to protect Geng Nazhong, but he didn't want to ruin the big event, so he did this in front of Li Qi.
During a play, if Li Qi said it was okay, he would naturally punish Geng Nanzhong lightly. He sighed: "Li Gang's move is indeed a bit reckless."
"Isn't this reckless? All arrogant people are like this, but often such people fail miserably because they don't know how to tolerate." Li Qi shook his head and suddenly asked: "What do you think of Geng Nanzhong?"
Qin Hui shook his head and said: "At the beginning, the official was a little worried, but judging from his performance just now, even if this person has climbed to a very high position, it is nothing to worry about. He cannot be compared with Wang Fu at all."
"Are you insulting Wang Fu?"
Li Qi laughed and said: "But what you said makes sense. This person fails more than he accomplishes."
Qin Hui frowned slightly and said, "Sir, are you worried that he is not Li Gang's opponent?"
Li Qi did not deny it, but he also did not admit it. He only said: "It is said that it is difficult to guard against villains, but this sentence must be different from person to person."
"I wonder what you mean, sir?"
"When you are free, please invite Geng Nanzhong to Zuixianju for a few meals. It's free."
"I understand."
"Economic envoy, economic envoy please stay."
Suddenly, someone shouted from behind.
Li Qi turned around and saw Geng Nanzhong walking towards them quickly.
Qin Hui whispered: "I think he is here to say thank you." When he said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. After being cheated by someone, he had to thank someone. How stupid a person can do this.
ah!
Sure enough, as soon as Geng Nanzhong came to Li Qi, he bowed and said: "I really want to thank the economic envoy for helping me. I am so grateful. Thank you, thank you so much."
Li Qi and Qin Hui almost laughed out loud when they heard this. Li Qi quickly stepped forward to help him up and said, "Geng Zhan is so quick to do things without courtesy. It's easy to raise a finger, so why bother? I'm just surprised."
So touched! Mr. Geng Nanzhong burst into tears and said: "Maybe to the economic envoy, this is just a little effort, but to Geng, it is a huge kindness. Geng - Geng really has nothing to repay, only -
--!"
If you dare to promise me, I will kick you to death. Li Qi looked at the disgusting look on his face, quietly took back his hand, and said with a smile: "Geng Zhan is serious, this matter is just a misunderstanding."
, I can't just watch Geng Zhan being wronged, but I still have to say, I reminded you last time to be more cautious about this kind of thing, why did you make the same mistake again?"
Geng Nanzhong's face changed slightly, thinking that Li Qi didn't usually accept gifts, so he should be considered a fellow-minded person, so he simply said frankly: "How dare Geng not take the economic envoy's good words to heart, but, alas, this
Someone is deliberately trying to kill Geng, it’s hard to guard against it!”
Qin Hui exclaimed, "I wonder who this person is, with sinister intentions? Moreover, Geng Zhan came to Honglu Temple not long ago, so he probably won't offend anyone."
Damn! They are all acting talents! If this was not arranged by Li Qi, he might really be fooled by Qin Hui's expression.
Geng Nanzhong sighed: "People's hearts are sinister. Geng has always been honest and honest, so how could he offend others? Some people are jealous of His Highness's use of Geng, so they stir up trouble in front of His Highness."
Li Qi frowned and said, "There is another matter. I wonder who that person is?"
Geng Nanzhong hummed: "It's not just Li Gang."
"He?" Qin Hui said: "This---I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding."
"Xiao Qin, can you speak?" Li Qi glared at Qin Hui and said to Geng Nanzhong: "You must have a misunderstanding about Geng Zhan. I have heard of Li Gang. He is a gentleman. I miss him.
It’s about the situation, not the person.”
Qin Hui hurriedly responded: "My lord, what I'm saying is that Li Gang is talented and a decent man. I guess he didn't mean to target Geng Zhan."
Li Qi said as usual: "Geng Zhan's matter. You and Li Gang can be said to be His Highness's right-hand men. They should cooperate well and jointly assist His Highness. Let this matter be revealed as it is. Don't worry about it."
Hearing Li Qi's tone, Geng Nanzhong originally thought that he would severely criticize Li Gang. Unexpectedly, he also criticized Li Gang and spoke so well of Li Gang. He thought to himself, if you say this, you are saying that I am not decent.
What? But then I thought about it, even the economic envoy and Qin Xuezheng said that Li Gang was good, and he was not a mediocre person. Now that we have formed a relationship, even if I don't pursue it, he probably won't let me go. It seems that he will not let me go.
Look for opportunities to strike first.
Thinking of this, he chuckled: "Yes, yes, yes, Geng will definitely remember your good advice."
The little man smiled, which proves that he is really afraid. It's okay if he is afraid.
Li Qi quietly looked at Qin Hui, and everything was in silence! There was such a tacit understanding.
……．
……．
The next day, morning.
Li Qi and Ji Hongnu held their sons in their arms and took Brother and Sister Maqiao to the palace to pay New Year greetings.
"(Uncle Li) Brother Li!"
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a group of young men rushing towards him. The oldest was only about twenty years old, and the youngest was only twelve or thirteen years old, about seven or eight years old.
Damn it! I called you uncle. What a situation! Li Qi was unprepared and was frightened.
"Brother Li (Uncle Li), I wish you a happy new year."
This group of boys knew etiquette, so they stood in front of Li Qi and bowed together.
Good guy, you have to come to the door if you want red envelopes. Mr. Wang’s tutor is really strict, I must learn this. Li Qi waved his hand, and Lu Meimei immediately took out the red cloth bags one by one.
An older man smiled and said: "Brother Li, we don't want money."
This man is Mrs. Qin's fifth brother, named Wang Duo.
Li Qi smiled and said, "Then what do you want?"
Wang Duo chuckled: "We--we want tickets for the national competition this afternoon."
This semi-final was an epic confrontation, and the tickets were sold out in one morning. Wang Zhongling was a strict father. After the incident with Mrs. Qin, he became even stricter. The children of the Wang family rarely go out.
There is no connection at all outside, so where can I buy tickets? Now I have to rely on Li Qi.
Li Qi exclaimed and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? The game is about to start. Where can I help you get tickets?"
As soon as these words came out, the boys all looked disappointed.
Li Qidao: "Then do you still want this red envelope?"
"Thank you Brother Li (Uncle Li)!"
Several boys took the red envelope and bowed together.
"You brats can stop messing around?"
At this time, several people walked out of the front hall, it was Wang Zhongling and his wife, Mrs. Qin and so on.
Wow! What a big battle! I didn’t expect Mr. Wang to be so generous. It seems that power can mean everything. Li Qi patted Wang Duo on the shoulder and said: "Come and take a look, maybe there will be a surprise!"
As he spoke, he took Ji Hongnu and walked towards Wang Zhongling. Suddenly, someone behind him shouted in surprise: "Tickets! There are tickets in the bag---there are tickets in the bag!"
Li Qi smiled lightly, and Ji Hongnu stepped forward and saluted Wang Zhongling and his wife.
Without saying a word, Mrs. Qin first hugged Zhengxi over, stood aside, and pressed her cheek against Li Zhengxi's little face, feeling extremely happy in her heart.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Wang sighed softly. If it hadn't been for her persistence at the time, she would be fully qualified to enjoy this happiness now. It's a pity that God's will plays tricks on people!
Wang Zhongling smiled and said: "Li Qi, it's rare for you to be thoughtful and prepare tickets for those brats."
Li Qidao: "Uncle Wang misunderstood. How could I have thought so carefully? It was only because my wife sent Xiao Tao to inquire yesterday that I was prepared."
Mrs. Qin nodded slightly to express her gratitude.
Wang Zhongling glanced at Mrs. Qin, frowned and said: "Sanniang, if you do this, you will spoil those boys. What if I'm like you again?"
Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "On New Year's Day. What do you mean by doing this? What's wrong with Yao'er?" Among her children, Mrs. Qin had the most difficult fate, so she has always loved her the most.
The three daughters naturally looked at their daughter and winked at Wang Zhongling. They said to Li Qi: "Li Qi, you are really thoughtful."
"No, no, no effort!" Li Qi exclaimed, but thought in his heart, it turns out that Mrs. Qin loves to nag so much. She inherited it from Mr. Wang! When he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Mrs. Qin was still teasing Zhengxi, but she didn't care at all.
I think it's the same thing, I guess I've expected it and I'm used to it.
Wang Zhongling's expression changed, as if he remembered something, and he quickly said: "Let's not stand here talking all the time. Let's go in and talk."
"yes."
A group of people entered the house! The Wang family can be regarded as a well-established scholar-bureaucrat family, and it is the Chinese New Year, so there are many people. The front hall is almost full, divided into two groups, Mrs. Qin’s sister-in-law and sister-in-law.
He talked with Ji Hongnu, while Wang Zhongling and his wife accompanied Li Qi.
In fact, Li Qi came here last year, but Wang Zhongling never made such a big fuss. The whole family came out to greet him, which made him feel very restrained.
Not only that, Mrs. Wang, who was originally unhappy with him, suddenly underwent a 720-degree change. As soon as he sat down, Mrs. Wang began to ask questions about everything, from business to work, to family, and future plans.
, it can be said that everything is meticulous and very enthusiastic!
Sweating! I feel like she is asking her mother-in-law to ask her son-in-law! This Li Qi really has no experience at all. In later generations, because he worked in his father-in-law's hotel, he got to know his mother-in-law very early.
By the time he formally meets his parents, his mother-in-law may know him better than his wife. As for his unscrupulous father-in-law, it goes without saying that his survival is already a miracle. Therefore, at that time, his mother-in-law
Without asking any questions at all, they were taken directly to play mahjong.
Li Qi was still complacent at that time. Others were very nervous when they saw their parents, but I was so relaxed when I saw them. It was like we are the same person but we have different fates.
Later, when he came to the Northern Song Dynasty, there were three of his four wives. One had both parents dead, one was abandoned, and the other had a father who was still alive, but he didn’t know which mountain forest he was hiding in. Bai Qiannuo’s parents were both in the capital, but
Bai Shizhong and he couldn't talk to each other at all, and Mrs. Bai and him were considered rivals, but Mrs. Bai's IQ was so abnormal that there was no need to ask, she could see everything clearly with just two glances.
So, strictly speaking, this is the first time Li Qi has encountered this kind of situation, but the problem is that this is not his mother-in-law, nor his future mother-in-law. The atmosphere is a bit weird. Li Qi, who has always been eloquent, is actually beaten by Wang.
The lady pressed me to the point where she was at a loss for words, and she was sweating profusely, "Oh my God! This is too scary."
Mrs. Wang was asking questions when she suddenly saw Li Qi sweating profusely. She immediately woke up and winked at Wang Zhongling. Wang Zhongling immediately picked up and started talking to Li Qi about mathematics, physics and chemistry!
This should be over! Li Qi quickly took a sip of tea to calm down his shock, thinking to himself, it seems that Aunt Wang is more aggressive than my mother-in-law! If this were the case in the past, Li Qi would also feel impatient, but Mrs. Wang is as powerful as a machine gun
Asking questions first, Wang Zhongling's inquiry was like catching a spring breeze! Only then did he relax, and he had never been so patient in answering Wang Zhongling's doubts.
As soon as Wang Zhongling talked about these professional issues, he immediately became more energetic and became more and more involved as he talked.
Mrs. Wang on the side originally wanted to take a sip of tea and take a break, but during this break, she had nothing to do with her anymore. She tried to interrupt several times but had no chance. She frowned and suddenly said: "Zhong Ling---.
"
Wang Zhongling was so busy talking that he didn't pay attention at all.
Li Qi did hear it, but he pretended not to hear it and continued to answer Wang Zhongling's question.
Mrs. Wang looked a little unhappy and said in a deep voice: "Wang Zhongling."
Now Wang Zhongling heard it and asked: "Madam, what's the matter?"
What's the matter? Mrs. Wang looked at Wang Zhongling, with a hint of anger in the corner of her eyes, but she smiled slightly and said: "It's too noisy here. You and Li Qi go to the backyard to talk."
Wang Zhongling was slightly startled and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes." Then he turned to Li Qi and said: "Li Qi, what do you think?"
"It's up to you!" Li Qi stood up and said to Ji Hongnu, "Hongnu, you stay here first, while Uncle Wang and I go to the back to talk about some things."
"Um."
After leaving the front hall, Li Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was very curious, so he asked: "Uncle Wang. Have you noticed that Aunt Wang is a little strange today."
Wang Zhongling seemed to be thinking about the question and said, "What did you say?"
"Uh... I mean, Aunt Wang seems to be very enthusiastic about my nephew today!" Li Qi said and smiled, and continued: "Uncle Wang, my wife helped me a lot back then. I have always been grateful for this kindness.
Remember, if you have any difficulties, just give me an order." But I thought in my heart, orders are orders, whether you answer or not is another matter.
Wang Zhongling frowned and looked at Li Qi without saying a word.
Li Qi was so surprised by him that he took a step back and said, "Uncle Wang, you---why are you looking at me like that?"
Wang Zhongling was slightly startled and scolded with a smile: "You guys don't think our couple wants to curry favor with you, do you?"
"Isn't it? No, no, no, that's not what my nephew means. What my nephew means is, does Uncle Wang need my nephew's help in some places?" Li Qi smiled reluctantly, cursing in his heart, "Fuck!"
I don't know what kind of virtues you, Wang Zhongling, have. You are more of a businessman than me. It's no good that you won't show any courtesy.
"That's pretty much it!" Wang Zhongling nodded and said, "However, I really have something I want you to help me with."
Look! You knew it was like this! Li Qi’s eyes immediately jumped up a few times.
Seeing his expression, Wang Zhongling didn't know what he was thinking, and said: "Where are you thinking, kid? What I want to discuss with you is a private matter, not a business matter. Moreover, you have no shirk in this matter."
Aren’t business and private matters the same thing? I’m tired of using this trick. Li Qi smiled and said, “Then what is it?”
Wang Zhongling coughed lightly, glanced left and right a few times, and whispered: "Li Qi. It's not that Uncle Wang is unreasonable, it's just that Uncle Wang feels that you should be responsible for your daughter."
"Ouch!"
As soon as Wang Zhongling finished speaking, Li Qi fell forward and almost fell. He finally managed to stabilize his body. It turned out that it was a branch that had just fallen that tripped him. However, this was far less scary than Wang Zhongling's words. He was surprised.
Looking at Wang Zhongling, he said, "Uncle Wang, what did you just say?"
Wang Zhongling said with a dark face: "Are you teasing me on purpose, or do you want to avoid taking responsibility?"
Damn it! Are you stupid? If you ask an upright and upright young man to take responsibility for your daughter, aren't you smearing me? Li Qi said angrily: "Uncle Wang, you are so reasonable, but
, have you found the wrong person, what responsibility do I bear? I just know your daughter---well, you are not talking about Mrs. Qin, right?"
If Li Qi hadn't been carrying the title of Economic Envoy, Wang Zhongling would have slapped her and said, "Then which daughter do you think she is?"
Damn it! You can’t blame me for this! What you said is so unreasonable that I can’t react. Li Qi shook his head and said, “I didn’t say that. It’s not my turn to be responsible for any of your daughters!”
Wang Zhongling rolled his eyes and said, "Li Qi, I thought you were such an ungrateful person."
Li Qidao: "If I were ungrateful, I wouldn't be here today. Yesterday the prince invited me to watch a game. Uncle Wang, you are well-informed. Find someone who values love and justice more than me."
Du Wang Zhongling was a little at a loss for words with these words, so he softened his tone a little and said: "Li Qi, it's not that Uncle Wang is relying on you---."
Li Qi immediately said: "But that's what I think it means."
Wang Zhongling glared at him and said, "Then let me ask you, how long have you lived in Qin Mansion?"
Li Qi was stunned and said: "It's been two or three years."
Wang Zhongling said again: "How old is Sanniang?"
Li Qi interrupted him again and said, "This has nothing to do with me!"
"Can you let me finish?"
"If I had a choice, I'd rather not!" Li Qi said simply.
Wang Zhongling was so angry at Li Qi that he also acted like a rogue and said, "That's not okay. You have to listen to what I have to say today."
This old guy must have spotted my shortcomings of respecting the elderly and loving the young! Li Qi was extremely reluctant and said: "Then you say it, but I have the right to veto."
Veto power? Wang Zhongling nodded helplessly, sighed, and continued: "Sanniang is still so young now and has to be a widow. How pitiful it is. She is such a miserable child. I shouldn't have treated her like that at the beginning, but
If she had listened to me, nothing like this would have happened."
At this point, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about the past. But you and I, Aunt Wang, will never let Sanniang be a widow for that short-lived ghost."
Li Qi said sarcastically: "Uncle Wang, this person is dead, should you be more virtuous?"
Wang Zhongling immediately became furious and broke out in an instant, cursing: "What do I want to do with my reputation? I just want to call him a short-lived ghost. I have never admitted that he is my son-in-law. Isn't it miserable enough that he has harmed my daughter? If it hadn't been
He, Sanniang, has been married to Zheng Er for a long time, and he may be very happy now. I am not afraid to tell you that I don’t hate anyone in this world, I just hate that short-lived ghost. Sanniang is my favorite daughter.
I have spent countless efforts on her, but now - I still haven't swallowed this breath. The Qin family has lost its heir, this is retribution, but why should Sanniang suffer this crime?"
Damn it! Just scold him if you scold him. Why are you spitting on me? Who am I provoking? Li Qi wiped his face and said quickly: "Okay, okay, Uncle Wang scolded me well. Anyway, he is going to do it in the middle of the night." I just want to talk to you."
Wang Zhongling was stunned for a moment, and then he said angrily: "Don't scare me here. If he dares to come to me, that would be even better. I will scold him until he loses his mind."
Sweating! How much resentment this must have! Li Qi was completely defeated and said depressedly: "It's useless for you to tell me about this. I can't ask him to find you."
"That's all, that's all, this matter has nothing to do with you." Wang Zhongling was tired of scolding, took a few breaths, and continued: "You must also know that your Aunt Wang and I have been looking for a good in-law for Sanniang last year. However, after practicing with several companies, the other party refused."
Li Qi nodded, suddenly startled, and said: "Uncle Wang, you did it the other way around, isn't it because Madam didn't agree to it?"
Wang Zhongling said: "What do you know? The ones Sanniang rejected were all a little mediocre. The real good men with family backgrounds, looks, talents and education all stayed away from Sanniang."
Li Qi said with a suspicious look on his face: "Uncle Wang, you are trying to trick a child. With my appearance and knowledge, how can I keep away from you? If I believe this, then I will really give you a blow. "
Wang Zhongling said: "Don't believe this, it's absolutely true, and the responsibility lies with you."
