Chapter 210: Dig a pit for the King of Chu
Qi Gu returned to the room and saw Qi Laoniu sitting on the soft couch against the wall and drinking tea.
She angrily went over and slapped the small table: "You still have the heart to drink tea." ”
Qi Laoniu looked up at her: "What can you do if you don't drink tea?" Did you really ask your son to divorce the third sister to marry some princess and county lord? ”
Putting the teacup down, Qi Laoniu asked Qi Gu: "You don't blame your daughter-in-law, right?" ”
"Am I that kind of person?" Qi Gu was even more unreasonable: "I don't blame her for this, why do I blame her, I just don't feel comfortable in my heart, but I can't be unreasonable." ”
Just when Qi Laoniu was about to nod, Qi Gu still sighed: "To be honest, how hard did our son work to become an official, and I was really unwilling to resign like this." ”
"What can I do if I am not reconciled." Qi Laoniu is very open-minded: "When you married our son's daughter-in-law, you had to marry that good-looking person, since you married such a stunning person, you have to be prepared to be implicated, that is, you enjoy the decent glory brought by your daughter-in-law, you can't go to a strange house because of a little thing, speaking of which, it is not easy for a daughter-in-law to ......"
"The more you talk, the more unreasonable I am." Qi Gushi patted the small kang table again: "Let me tell you, our daughter-in-law is not a soft pouch, not someone who wants to pinch it, plus she is proficient in the art of organs, I see that she is busy in the house and doesn't know what kind of mechanism she is doing, anyway, she looks very powerful, I'm afraid she is holding back in her heart." ”
"Really?" Qi Laoniu was originally crooked on the couch, and when he heard this, he immediately sat upright: "What do you think she can do?" ”
Qi Gu shook his head: "Who knows, let's wait and see, anyway, there is a daughter-in-law here, even if our son resigns." We can't afford to lose. ”
This is also true, Qi Laoniu can see that Qi Gu's can be regarded as open, so he is relieved.
It is said that Qi Jing and Liu Rui went out of the gate of Qi's house, and Liu Rui was about to sit in a sedan chair, so Qi Jing smiled and went over: "Father-in-law Liu, it is snowing here, and the sedan chair is cold and cold." My carriage has been remodeled. It's still warm, why don't you deal with me for a while. ”
Even if Liu Rui is wearing thick clothes at this time, as soon as he goes out, he has already been penetrated by the north wind. When he heard that Qi Jing invited him to take the carriage, he was unwilling, and immediately smiled: "It's hard work." ”
Qi Jing stretched out his hand to help Liu Rui and helped him to the carriage.
It was really cold outside, and as soon as I entered the carriage, it felt like I was following the house. Warm.
After Liu Rui sat down, he looked around, and felt quite strange.
Qi Jing explained to him with a smile. Pointing to the small iron stove placed in the four corners of the carriage: "This is a small charcoal stove specially made by my wife, each small charcoal stove has a special flue leading to the outside of the carriage, even if the charcoal is burned, it will not smell the slightest smoke and fire, in addition." Magnets were specially installed at the four corners of the carriage to fix the furnace, and no matter how hard the carriage was bumped, the furnace would not move a bit. ”
Qi Jing explained. While lifting a handrail in the middle of the carriage, he took out a teacup and poured hot tea and handed it to Liu Rui: "Drink a cup of hot tea to warm up." ”
Liu Rui smiled and took a sip. I felt that this tea was more fragrant than other teas, and I felt fragrant after just taking a sip: "What kind of tea is this, I haven't drunk it before?" ”
Qi Jing smiled: "It was specially brought back from the south, and the people in the south called it a scaring incense, which is a kind of wild tea in the mountains, I drink it well, my lady loves this the most, ask someone to bring a few, if my father-in-law likes me, ask someone to send some." Several halls have not been built, and the ministers will tell those craftsmen to work hard, and the gardens in Nancheng will be planted with some flowers and trees next year, in addition. There are still a few rockeries to be piled up, and the minister will also explain the matter. ”
Speaking of which. Qi Jing became more and more reluctant, and there was a cry in his voice: "The minister is reluctant to leave His Majesty, and the thought of staying away from His Majesty from now on makes the minister feel uncomfortable." ”
He said so. Emperor Chengping thought that Qi Jing had been really conscientious since he became an official, and he could solve any difficulties he encountered well, and. Qi Jing is also very good at talking, no matter what unbelievable things he thinks. No matter how big the brain hole is, Qi Jing has never said a word of disobedience, nor has he admonished a word, such a capable minister is really rare, Qi Jing is really going to resign, and it is really not an easy thing to meet such a desirable courtier in the future.
The key is that Emperor Chengping thought that if Qi Jing didn't become an official, Yun Yao would definitely blame himself, and besides, he planned to feast the ministers in the palace during the Chinese New Year this year, and he also wanted to ask those ministers who had to be used to bring their female dependents into the palace, and when the time came, he would be able to take a good look at Yun Yao, if Qi Jing resigned and didn't do it, how could Yun Yao enter the palace?
Thinking of this, Emperor Chengping felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and he was quite reluctant to Qi Jing.
"You ......" Emperor Chengping wanted to say something, but his throat was also a little choked: "It's just a woman, why are you reluctant?" After divorce your wife, I will give you a marriage, and I can find you whatever I want to marry. ”
"陛xià." Qi Jing lowered his head and gritted his teeth: "The minister Xie Xià love, but the minister was ugly and poor at the beginning, just when the wolf was miserable, the minister's lady did not dislike the minister, married the minister, and lived with the minister wholeheartedly, and now the minister is a high school champion and an official, if you dislike her and abandon her, then the minister is really a pig and a dog, although the minister is not a good person, but he can't do such a conscientious thing, the minister, I have to live with my majesty." ”
The more Qi Jing spoke, the more sad he became, and finally he fell to the ground and cried: "When His Majesty is slightly cold, the minister is grateful to His Majesty, no matter what His Majesty is, the minister will not have the slightest complaint, but the minister is really worried about His Majesty." ”
Speaking of this, Qi Jing snorted a few heads: "The minister is afraid that the ambition of the king of Southern Chu will be difficult to quench, and he will be another emperor of Northern Liang, and at that time, His Majesty will be in danger." ”
With a bang, the pen holder on the imperial case in front of Emperor Chengping fell to the ground, and Emperor Chengping sat on the chair in shock: "You, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Your Majesty." Qi Jing cried while snorting: "Your Majesty is a benevolent king, and he has always been a gentleman's style, how can you understand what those villains do, are you really the king of Southern Chu to threaten His majesty to divorce his wife for the minister's wife, he is the king of a country, what kind of woman does he want, the minister's lady is good, it is not a yellow flower girl, and the king of Chu will never forget it after watching it, and he wants to marry the country, this, the minister wants to think about it, this is not possible." ”
"What?" Emperor Chengping was shocked again, thinking about it carefully, it was really like this, not to mention the King of Chu, even Emperor Chengping himself liked Yun Yao's appearance quite a lot, but when he learned that Yun Yao was married, he didn't force it, then he was still the king of a country, and it was much more convenient than the King of Chu to force it, he didn't have to get Yun Yao, so why did the King of Chu have to take people away?
The more Emperor Chengping thought about it, the bigger it became, he was obsessed with calligraphy and painting, although he also knew some political affairs, but he really couldn't guess the ghost realm of people's hearts.
Emperor Chengping trusted Qi Jing quite a bit, so he asked: "Qi Qingping, tell me what is the reason for this?" ”
Qi Jing stood up, looked up and asked Emperor Chengping to see his red eyes crying, Emperor Chengping really looked at it, this look, his heart was actually quite moved, he felt that Qi Jing was really a loyal minister, and he forced him to divorce his wife, not only was he not angry, but he also planned for himself, such a loyal minister is really rare.
"陛xià." Qi Jing said in a deep voice, his face was full of solemnity: "The minister guessed that the king of Chu must have the heart of not being a minister, he is using the matter of the minister's wife as a raft to test His Majesty, if His Majesty really agrees, it means that His Majesty is very afraid of him, and he will also think that His Majesty is timid and afraid, this time he got a wife, and next time, the King of Chu will definitely make some unreasonable demands. ”
When it came to the word retreat, Qi Jing's voice was much louder, and he was full of hatred: "When the time comes, even if Your Majesty wants to retreat again, but there is no way out, what should I do?" (To be continued.) )
