His Royal Highness, who was so considerate yesterday, has transformed into a annoying little goblin today.
Kou Ji knew why this was so.
He opened his eyes and glanced at Zhao Yiyi, turned over and continued to sleep.
"Kou Shidu, if you are disrespectful to the prince, you will be punished with a rod..."
Chen Lin's sinister voice sounded in Kou Ji's ears.
Kou Ji opened his eyes and saw Chen Lin's bony hand falling slowly, and a subtle cold light flashed between his fingers.
Kou Ji was startled and sat up suddenly.
"Do you want to be so cruel?"
Kou Ji let his hair down and asked Chen Lin in shock.
Chen Lin retracted her hand, put it into her cuffs, and smiled slyly, "Our family will not be harsh on you..."
"Not even with a gentle hand!"
Kou Ji was wrapped in quilt and said angrily.
Chen Lin curled her lips and said in a neutral tone: "We just want to remind you that although the prince is close to you, there are differences between monarch and minister. Kou Shidu should abide by the rules of monarch and minister."
Kou Ji twitched the corner of his mouth, threw down the quilt, and said fiercely: "I'll keep it!"
Zhao Yiyi covered his mouth and snickered to the side.
Kou Ji slid out of bed, dressed neatly, and prepared to wash up.
Zhao Yiyi came close to Kou Ji and whispered, "As long as you are willing to give me half of the food that Liu Heng and others brought into the palace, I will not let Chen Lin embarrass you."
Kou Jigang picked up a handful of water from the copper basin. When he heard this, he quickly slapped the water on his face, touched it randomly, wiped it clean with a sweat towel, and then looked at Zhao Yiyi.
"Chen Lin scared me, was it your idea?"
Zhao Yiyi denied it flatly, "How could it be possible? I am that kind of person?"
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said, "Next time when you lie, can you stop looking away?"
Zhao Yiyi's eyes rolled around, but he said stubbornly: "I did not dodge my eyes..."
"Ha...he is really a child."
After Kou Ji finished washing, he bowed his hand to Zhao Yiyi and took the lead to go to Wende Building.
Zhao Yiyi followed Kou Ji and kept asking Kou Ji to share the food with him, but Kou Ji didn't agree.
Arrive at Wende Building.
Liu Heng and others were already waiting upstairs.
After Liu Heng saw Kou Ji, he came up to him carrying a large food box.
He looked happy, as if he had something good to share with Kou Ji.
"Fourth brother, let me tell you..."
Halfway through the conversation, when he saw Zhao Yiyi behind Kou Ji, Liu Heng changed the subject and said, "Fourth brother, I don't know what you like to eat, so I just brought a few random things to eat. Take a look?"
Liu Heng opened the food box, which contained four plates and two bowls.
"Wontons from Grandma Sun's shop... Cao Ji's fragrant meat... Chen Ji's flower cake..."
Liu Heng introduced Kou Ji one by one.
Kou Ji smelled it and found it quite fragrant.
When I touched it, it was still hot.
Liu Heng saw this and smiled: "I specially asked someone to place a heater under the food box..."
Kou Ji took the food box and praised: "You are thoughtful..."
Liu Heng said happily: "We are brothers, as we should be."
Kou Ji placed the food brought by Liu Heng on the desk, and Cao Yi came over with a food box.
"Brother Kou, I brought some stir-fried vegetables from home, you can try them..."
Kou Ji was stunned and praised: "Stir-fried vegetables, this kind of thing is not common in Bianjing City."
Cao Ji put down the food box and said with a smile: "This thing has just appeared. There are not many cooks who know how to cook it. There is only one in my family."
With Cao Yi taking the lead, the other little guys also ordered to offer the food they brought.
In an instant, Kou Ji's desk was filled to the brim.
Zhao Yunchu was the last one to offer food.
His behavior was a little awkward, and he didn't seem to be carrying any food boxes.
With a swipe, Button took out two candy figures wrapped in paper from his sleeves.
When the little guy saw everyone looking at him, he pouted aggrievedly and said pitifully: "I... I don't dare to tell my father... and I don't dare to order the cook in the house..."
Kou Ji smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I quite like the candy man you gave me."
The little guy was stunned and smiled, "Really?"
Kou Ji nodded and said, "Really!"
The little guy said happily: "That's good, then I'll bring it to you tomorrow."
"good!"
Kou Ji sat at the desk, like a king of the mountain, accepting the delicacies offered by various little bosses.
Zhao Yiyi was almost crying.
He walked to Kou Ji's table angrily, and Cao Yi and others immediately dispersed.
"I want to eat too!"
Zhao Yiyi pouted and stared at Kou Jidao.
Kou Ji shook his head like a rattle, "That's not okay. You are the prince and the heir apparent. You cannot eat these foods of unknown origin."
As Kou Ji spoke, he blocked the desk with his arm, fearing that Zhao Yisheng might snatch it.
Zhao Yi was trembling with anger. He stared at Kou Ji for a long time and shouted angrily.
"I misjudged you!"
After Zhao Yiyi shouted these words, he returned to his desk angrily and covered his face with a book.
Kou Ji smiled happily while eating the hot meat.
Seeing that Zhao Yiyi had left, Liu Heng approached Kou Ji again and whispered: "Fourth brother, I have prepared a surprise for you."
"Surprise? What surprise?"
Kou Ji swallowed a piece of chicken in his mouth and said doubtfully.
Liu Heng chuckled and said, "I spent fifty dollars to buy Wu Xian's head for you."
Kou Ji was startled, and the chicken legs in his hand fell on the table, and he asked in shock: "What's going on?"
Liu Heng whispered: "Yesterday I went to the Kou Mansion to get money, and Erbao said that you wanted the lives of the Wu brothers. After returning to the manor, I asked my men to inquire and found that Wu Ming had been beheaded.
The body was dumped in Yizhuang outside the city. I got Wu Ming's head back without any effort.
Wu Xian is in some trouble. He was sentenced to exile, which is not a capital crime.
I could only spend money to bribe the government officials to escort him and take off his head at Wulipo outside the city."
Kou Ji said blankly: "Wouldn't Wu Xian have been escorted out of the city long ago?"
Liu Heng shook his head and said: "No... Wu Xian was transferred from the Penal Department Prison to the Kaifeng Mansion Prison, and there was a delay of several days in between. After I went out yesterday, I happened to find out that Wu Xian was being escorted out of the city, so I took advantage of the city gate.
Guan, follow him out and spend money to pick off his head."
Kou Ji was stunned, "Can this still happen? Is he a felon convicted by the Third Division?"
Liu Heng said in a low voice: "Of course...the government officials who escort prisoners in Kaifeng Mansion are not good people. As long as you are willing to spend money, they will do anything."
"What if the court investigates?"
"The imperial court has been investigating! But it's of no use. If you kill a group, a new group will come out soon. There are always people who like to take risks for the sake of money."
"How do you know this?"
"My father told me! He said that if I offend these people, I should inform him in advance so that he can kill them early so that the Liu family will not be in trouble in the future and fall into the hands of these people and be ruined."
Kou Ji clicked his lips, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, he asked Liu Heng, "There is no beginning or end left, right?"
Liu Heng shook his head and laughed in a low voice: "I asked my men to handle it. Fifty guan is double what others gave me. I don't need to step in at all."
