Chapter 258: The Enemy of the Enemy
It's just a Jianghu person who can see through. Qi Lichen smiled faintly, "Prime Minister, you only want that batch of treasures, but you don't have the capital to negotiate with me, there is really no need to continue this conversation, from now on, you and I will do it ourselves." β
After speaking, he got up and bowed, "The Prime Minister still taught me a lot of things, for example, the court officialdom is dark, maybe I can ask a thing or two in the future." β
"You're leaving?" The prime minister narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dangerous light burst out of his eyes.
The current Qi Lichen is as fragile as a crispy shell, if he can keep the other party, then everything will be easy.
Qi Lichen smiled faintly and said, "Isn't it difficult?" The prime minister's guests are as they are pleased, and the guests are leaving, can the host still be forced to stay? β
"It's not impossible." The prime minister sneered, and raised his hand slightly, in fact, he had already made people ready, just to get into this garden just for a rainy day, even if he didn't go out, if someone checked it in the future, as long as he lied, no one would suspect him.
Because he is the prime minister, the prime minister who is high.
At this time, if the emperor is not alarmed, it is even simpler, there are his people in Dali Temple, he can let the other party close the case hastily, and then the master of Qingyu Pavilion will probably disappear into the rivers and lakes, leaving only endless legends.
Qi Lichen smiled, very sincerely, and there was no panicked look on his face.
The prime minister didn't understand why he was laughing, but he felt a little stunned in his heart, this person was really terrible, he was always so light and light, but everything was under control.
Such a person, if he is made an opponent's henchman, then his chances of winning will be reduced by half.
In fact, before he had that batch of treasures, he really assisted King Mujun, but it was different when this batch of treasures appeared, with this batch of treasures, who could be the king, he had accumulated so many contacts in the court, why did he make wedding dresses for others?
King Mu Jun may be regarded as an opponent, but he is even more terrifying.
As if he was afraid of something, something happened in his premonition, and he was about to let someone do it, when the butler ran in from outside the door, "The people of the six princes, please meet." β
"Why did his people come? Isn't there a lot of commotion in the court these days? What's the matter, now that I know that I have come to surrender to Cheng, I have moved so many people to the prime minister, and the prime minister will definitely not spare him. The prime minister said coldly.
"It's not for this matter, it is said that Qi Lichen, the doorman of his house, came to visit the prime minister's mansion, and he has not returned, and the six princes are anxious to see him, so he sent someone to the mansion to ask, saying that when Qi Lichen left from the six princes, he said that he would go back when he came out of the prime minister's place, but after waiting for a long time and not seeing him back, he asked people to ask, saying that the person must be here, if the prime minister has nothing to do, he will send someone to take people away." The butler lowered his voice and said.
Only then did the prime minister understand everything, and remembered what happened in the court some time ago.
The six princes frequently opposed him, and even dealt with many ministers under him, and also hindered his progress in searching for treasures, which turned out to be because he joined forces with Qi Lichen.
Here is to tie him up with some official duties above the court, so that Qi Lichen has no worries.
He finally understood the money, laughed out loud and said, "I really don't know anyone, I fell into the trap of the villain." β
"It's a villain and a gentleman, it's useless to argue with you about this now, the prime minister has taken his leave, you won't stop me again this time, right?" Qi Lichen smiled and said.
The prime minister gritted his teeth, "I won't let you go." β
"Then don't let it go." After Qi Lichen finished speaking, he walked towards the door, and the figure of swaggering away made the prime minister grit his teeth with hatred, but there was no way at all.
Qi Lichen went out, and a carriage stopped outside the door, and a small servant jumped down from the carriage, "The sixth prince invites you over." β
Qi Lichen nodded, "Thanks to the rescue of the six princes, I really should pay for the wine and thank you." β
"It's all trivial." The little servant smiled slightly, "It's too dangerous here, in the capital, although the power of the prime minister has been weakened a little, it is still not to be underestimated, son, please go to the Six Princes' Mansion to talk about it." β
"It's all as it should be." Qi Lichen smiled faintly and got into the carriage.
The carriage ran happily in the distance, the Six Princes' Mansion was not considered extravagant, but the place where it stood was quite large, and it was very elegant inside, all the way to the wood color and fragrance, and the corridor was full of a lot of wind chimes, and the wind blew and made a jingling sound like a cheerful music.
"Mr. Qi is here." Gu Xizhou actually greeted him in person, smiled and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time." β
Qi Lichen immediately clenched his fists, took a step back, and said humbly: "The villain is just a white ding, not worth it, the sixth prince would rather use such a big gift." β
Gu Xizhou smiled, "Don't be polite to me, this prince has always cherished talents, not to mention that I heard that Mr. is eloquent, very good at poetry and books, and the articles are also very exquisite, I have always wanted to find a chance to meet, but Mr. He is the prime minister's protΓ©gΓ©, and he has never had a chance, and now Mr. is no longer following the prime minister, and he took the initiative to come to me to surrender, I naturally want to receive Mr. with the highest etiquette." β
Qi Lichen smiled, looking very moved, "The prime minister is unkind, if I found the right person at the beginning, then now I will definitely be on the rise and will not be left out." β
"By the way, why did you and the prime minister have friction?" Gu Xizhou was very curious about this matter.
Three days ago, Qi Lichen knocked on the door and asked to see him.
He has seen this person beside the prime minister, and his impression of him is not very good, because he thinks that this person is a little unfathomable, and perhaps the prime minister's side is the one who helps him the most.
Originally, he couldn't think of it, but the housekeeper persuaded him that no matter who it was, he should see it, maybe there was something big, not to mention that the prime minister had knocked down several people under him in the past few months, maybe talk to Qi Lichen, there will be a new way out.
After hearing this, he decided to go and meet Qi Lichen in person.
After meeting, I learned that it turned out that Qi Lichen was incompatible with the prime minister, and it was very likely that he would attract murder, so he specially came to his door to surrender.
At the beginning, he also felt a little puzzled, and thought that this was a trick made by two people, just to plant people around him, Zhang Sheng was originally the person he rebelled, but later it didn't come in handy, because of slandering the minister, he was planted in the hands of the emperor.
I didn't expect it to be of any use, but it almost made me angry, and he reacted after thinking about it at the time, this is the prime minister's strategy.
So this time I was even more cautious and didn't dare to make the slightest mistake.
Qi Lichen told him that he had never met a talent, and he was not reused by the prime minister, and the prime minister had been looking for a batch of treasures, and he gave some clues to the prime minister, but he didn't expect that the prime minister actually got these clues, so he kicked him away.
Later, Cheng corresponded to the affairs of the court, and had no ability to find treasures, so he entrusted the people of the rivers and lakes to search privately, and found that the treasures were robbed on the way every two days, and the prime minister had murderous intentions towards him.
Gu Xizhou didn't believe these words at first, but after going back, he inquired carefully before he was sure that Qi Lichen was telling the truth.
Because there are too many details to match, he doesn't care what the treasure is, but he understands that if he doesn't get rid of the prime minister, I'm afraid he won't have a chance to sit on the throne of the crown prince.
