Chapter 691: Finding the "Door"
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
If the long Ganoderma lucidum on the edge of the door is a spectacle and auspicious, then the scene in the office of the chairman of the current Zuixianju Group Company can definitely be regarded as a wonder, which is unimaginable.
"No, no, I've seen this move, start over, start again." Li Qi sat cross-legged in his boss's chair, waving his hands vigorously.
Li Qi can play Go, or he is playing Go, which is certainly not a miracle, but it is Mrs. Qin sitting opposite him, and she can calm down and play Go with Li Qi, which makes people a little confused.
Mrs. Qin stretched out two slender fingers, withdrew the white zi she had just played, pinched her forehead, and said with a little distress: "This chess is only halfway through, and you will do it again eighteen times. β
Li Qi was surprised: "Eighteen times? Is there so many? I muttered in my heart, even if there are really eighteen times, you are used to it, and you gladly accept my regret every time.
Mrs. Qin said lightly: "Then let's treat this as the first time, but I believe there will be eighteen times soon." β
"Uh, what if not?"
"That's the end of it."
Li Qi's face froze, and Mrs. Qin's meaning was nothing more than saying that if he didn't regret so many moves, then the battle would be resolved soon. If it were anything else, Li Qi would be furious and would be about to save face, but in this game of Go, he really believed that Mrs. Qin could knock him out quickly, after all, the two were not on the same level, and he pouted: "Of course, you study this chess at home every day, I run outside every day, tired and tired to make money, how can it be your opponent, if you give me practice for a month, then you have to stand on the side." β
This person is really shameless, and he talks nonsense with his eyes open. But then again, Mrs. Qin did feel guilty about this, and she was most afraid that Li Qi would talk about this, so she nodded and said, "Hurry up, if you can put this trick on this, I will definitely not be your opponent." β
Satirize. Naked irony. Li Qi snorted, stared at the chessboard for a while, and hesitated to fall into the sunspot.
Mrs. Qin smiled and said, "What did you decide to do here?" β
"Uh, think about it." Li Qihu looked at Mrs. Qin suspiciously, and quickly took back the chess pieces, and said, "This can't be regarded as regret chess." β
Mrs. Qin shook her head with a wry smile, and after a while, she asked coldly, "By the way, you didn't make trouble in the palace yesterday, right?" β
Finally showed the fox's tail, I said, why did I ask you to play Go today, and you agreed, thinking that you were fascinated by my handsomeness, and I dared to ask for news. Li Qi looked at the chessboard and said, "Of course not, if you don't believe it, you can ask the sixth son." β
Today, Li Qi really doesn't have the heart to work, he has already done what he can, and now it depends on Song Huizong's reaction. Just an hour ago, he was still in the office touching left and right, fidgeting, and it happened that Mrs. Qin was late at that time, so he casually asked, Madam, do you want to kill a game. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qin agreed in one bite. At that time, he felt that his nerves were a little deranged.
Mrs. Qin is not good at lying, and said: "I asked, but the sixth son said that he had been in the kitchen and did not know what was going on outside. β
Li Qi suddenly put down the chess pieces, straightened his waist, and asked seriously: "I said madam, why are you so worried about me?" β
Mrs. Qin didn't answer and asked, "Should I be at ease with you?" β
"This-that's good, I can tell you for sure, last night was fine, there was no accident you imagined, you are satisfied." Li Qi smiled innocently.
But as soon as these words fell, someone outside shouted: "My lord, my lord, something has happened." β
It can't be so evil, right? Li Qi was dripping with cold sweat, and looked at Mrs. Qin embarrassedly.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Hui rushed in.
Sure enough, something happened. As soon as Mrs. Qin saw Qin Hui's expression, she knew that she was right, in fact, when she came in just now, when she saw Li Qi's worried appearance, she knew that last night was by no means peaceful, and things must not be small, because no matter how big things happened before, Li Qi had a strategizing look, however, today is very different. But she is the kind of conservative woman after all, even though her heart is full of questions, she still stood up, with a polite smile on the corner of her mouth, bowed slightly towards Qin Hui, and entered her office without saying a word.
Although Qin Hui is the kind of man whose power is better than a qiΔ, Mrs. Qin's faint smile still made him stunned a little, and he couldn't help but marvel, how could there be such an amazing woman in the world.
Knock knock!
Li Qi is not surprised by this, he himself is often like this, can understand, knocked on the chessboard with the flag, and said: "Hey, hey, come back to your senses, come back to your senses." β
Qin Hui was slightly stunned, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, my lord." β
Li Qi smiled: "Sit down!" β
Qin Hui then remembered the purpose of coming today, sat down, and whispered: "My lord, why didn't you go to the court, don't you know, there are strange things in the court today." β
Li Qi suppressed the joy in his heart and said lightly: "I was too tired last night, and I didn't go to the court today, what kind of strange thing can make you reckless." β
Qin Hui smiled and said: "That's the case, today, the emperor is the same as before, the person who impeached the prince, but he was all rejected by the emperor, this is nothing, Zuo Xiang suddenly challenged the king minister, and even the three twists and turns to impeach Wang Huang, the strange thing is that the emperor actually played all of them, and he was particularly angry, my lord, don't you say this is strange?" β
Thank God, the future mother-in-law didn't lie to me, it seems that the emperor is ready to attack Wang Huang. Li Qi pretended to be surprised and said, "Wouldn't it?" This is too evil, are you hallucinating? β
βοΌβ Qin Hui shook his head and said, "No." As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly glanced at Li Qi thoughtfully, and his heart sank, isn't this qiΔ all secretly indulged by adults, yes, it must be like this, no wonder he was so calm a few days ago, it turned out that he had already caught Wang Huang's life, but what could make the emperor's attitude towards Wang Huang change dramatically overnight?
Even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't think of a reason, and the fear of Li Qi in his heart was even stronger.
Li Qi saw what Qin Hui was thinking at a glance, and he couldn't hide it, and said: "Anyway, this is not a bad thing for us, but we have to be cautious and don't let people take advantage of it." β
"Yes. Qin Hui remembered the teachings of adults. β
Qin Hui breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, their Bureau of Commerce is a new department, an iron-clad camp, as long as Li Qi does not fall, how can others take advantage of it. However, the change in the attitude of the emperor today, as well as the calmness expressed by Li Qi, made all the pressures of the previous Rizi disappear, and he felt much lighter, but how could he be satisfied with this, the desire in his heart made him eager to know what would happen next, and said, "Then my lord, what should we do?" β
He vaguely remembered that Li Qi said a few days ago that he must be able to solve his worries, otherwise he can't do it lightly, if this matter is done by Li Qi, then it means that Li Qi has found a new way out, which is also particularly important to him.
This man's brain is spinning really fast. Li Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said, "Wait and see, just the two of us, what do you think we can do?" β
Qin Hui was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "Xiaguan understands." "I was full of suspicions in my heart, and said secretly, since it can't be Cai You, could it be Zuo Xiang? Well, is this possible? No, no, adults have a very shallow relationship with the left, and the best way out is definitely not the left, so who is it? Who has a good relationship with adults and has the ability to replace Wang Huang?
The answer is out, Cai Jing!
Thinking about this reason, Qin Hui is completely relieved, it is undeniable that he and Cai Jing have no friendship, but now he and Li Qi are grasshoppers on the same rope, Li Qi is good, he naturally follows well, and the relationship between Cai Jing and Li Qi is unbreakable, which is undoubtedly the most beneficial to him.
Li Qi glanced at Qin Hui slightly, and couldn't help but sigh bitterly, this guy is really too perverted, it really makes people love and hate, if he doesn't handle it well, it will become a big disaster in the future. At the same time, he also made up his mind in his heart that if Qin Hui had a slight disturbance in the future, he would definitely not be able to keep this person.
However, Qin Hui, who was planning for Li Qi in the future, never expected that Li Qi was thinking about how to suppress him in the future, even if he was given another chance, he would never guess that Li Qi would be jealous of him as a five-grade petty official.
Qin Hui got what he wanted, and then talked to Li Qi in detail about the situation in the last dynasty and left. Now the Bureau of Commerce is basically in his care, he is a smart person, he knows that he is not qualified to mix in the affairs between Li Qi and Cai Jing now, the only thing he can do is to be pragmatic, do things well, fully show his talents, and grasp this hard-won opportunity, only in this way can he have the opportunity to stand out.
As soon as Qin Hui walked for a while, Mrs. Qin walked out and looked at Li Qi with a solemn face.
This lady is always eavesdropping on people now. Li Qi pursed his lips and said, "Madam, why do you look at me?" I don't have any flowers on my face. β
Mrs. Qin didn't say a word, just looked at Li Qi.
Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Madam, there are big things happening every day in the court, you can't count them all on my head, I was still playing chess with you just now." β
As soon as the words fell, there was another person outside: "Chairman, the master is here." β
Damn, I really can't say that now. Li Qi slapped his head in annoyance, and said secretly, it seems that I haven't done enough to be hidden, why will they think of me for the first time.
Madam Qin looked even more worried, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she turned around and went back inside.
Soon, Cai Jing was invited in, and I saw that his face was shining and he looked very eager.
Li Qi got up and greeted him: "The Grand Master is here, if you miss the distance, please take a seat." β
After Cai Jing sat down, he went straight to the point and said, "Do you have a court today?" β
"Nope."
"Have you heard about the court today?"
"Ugh."
"The old man just saw Qin Xue leaving here."
"I heard."
Cai Jing squinted at him, as if to say, you kid still want to pretend to be tender with the old man? said: "The old man thinks you must know the reason." β
Li Qi said: "Don't hide it from the master, I was also thinking about it just now. β
"Really?"
"It's more real than real gold."
Cai Jing stroked his beard, glanced at Li Qi again, and said: "That's strange, nothing happened yesterday, it's just that Wang Hao held a very ordinary banquet in the mansion, why did the emperor's attitude towards him change drastically today, and something must have happened in it?" Moreover, almost all of the people who attended the banquet yesterday were Wang Huang's people, except for the emperor, you and Shimei are not his people, not to mention the change in the attitude of the emperor today, even Shimei Jinri is very abnormal. β
When did this old fox's reasoning ability become so strong, but he had to tell him about it, and let him take care of it. Li Qi scratched his head and said: "I really don't know about this, I remember that nothing special didn't seem to happen in the palace yesterday, I didn't even attend the banquet, I stayed in the kitchen, and I went back when I was done." When I first went, I went to see the divine dog that Wang Yanei had recently found. β
"Divine dogs? The old man also heard about this, but what is the magic of that dog? β
Li Qijing's god rose sharply, and he gushed endlessly: "Taishi, don't say it, that divine dog really has a special place, it is through people, can bow, and can also find things by taste, yes, yes, speaking of this by taste, it is really amazing, that divine dog even found a jade mushroom growing on the edge of the side door of the palace, and the emperor also gave the name to the divine dog, called Yu Xiangrui." β
"Yuzhi grows on the edge of the door?"
Cai Jing frowned and said, "Then this is also a good thing." β
"Isn't it?"
"Is there anything else going on?"
"Probably not."
Cai Jing pondered for a moment and said, "When you found Yuzhi at that time, who was there?" β
Li Qi said: "Just the emperor, Wang Hao and his son, me, and Zuo Xiang." β
Cai Jing squinted his eyes and thought secretly, such a happy event, why no one talked about it today, with Wang Hao's person, he would definitely make a big announcement at the banquet yesterday, the problem must be here, but it is a good thing to find Yuzhi, and the emperor also gave the name to the divine dog, since this is the case, it should not be caused by these two things, what else is there?
Thinking of this, Cai Jing's eyes suddenly opened and said, "That door!" β
This is really more than a jing! Li Qi said with a slight humility: "What door?" β
Cai Jing asked, "What kind of door is that?" What's inside? β
Li Qi thought for a while and said, "It's just a small wooden door, as for what is inside, I didn't look carefully, it seems to be another courtyard, but it's very big, you can't see the edge at a glance, and a lot of trees are planted." β
"Small wooden doors? Annex? Cai Jing whispered a sentence and said, "Strange, this old man in the palace doesn't know how many times he has been there, and he has never seen the courtyard you said, nor the small wooden door you said." β
"I don't know, but what I said is true."
Cai Jing glanced at Li Qi, and saw that he didn't want to be lying, so he pondered with deep eyebrows, and after half a sound, he suddenly said, "What direction is the door heading?" β
"Uh-huh, it seems to be northwest."
"Northwest?" Cai Jing exclaimed, and then laughed: "I see, the old man understands." β
Li Qi asked, "Master, what's going on?" β
"Yes." Cai Jinggang said a word, suddenly stopped, and said to Li Qi: "You really don't know?" β
Li Qi said innocently: "I really don't know, what is so special about that door?" β
Cai Jing was really deceived by Li Qi's acting skills, thinking to himself, he is young, even if he is smart, but he is still inexperienced, he has only been an official for a year, it is impossible to think of taking advantage of this, he may really not know, is this qiΔ all providence? As everyone knows, there is also a mother-in-law who is almost a demon standing behind Li Qi. Cai Jing weighed it and still felt that it was best not to tell SΓΉ Li Qi about it, because Liang Shicheng was also involved, and he was also afraid of being hidden. said: "You know that this matter is not good, but the old man can tell you that the matter of the court today is by no means groundless, nor abnormal, but reasonable." β
Since it is going to be acted, it is natural to play it to the end. Li Qi pondered for a moment and said, "What does the Taishi mean is that the prince has completely angered the emperor this time?" β
Cai Jing nodded slightly: "Maybe so." After a pause, he said again: "Although the emperor has promised you not to go to the early court, but the court has not been peaceful recently, so don't be lazy, you still have to go." β
If you don't say this, I'll go too, and I'm still waiting to see you perform. Li Qi nodded and said, "I see." β
Cai Jing smiled, got up and said, "Okay, the old man won't bother you with things, go back first." β
"I'll send the Taishi."
After being sent back to the Taishi, as soon as Li Qi returned to the office, he saw Mrs. Qin standing in front of the window and looking at him with that suspicious look, and said depressedly: "Madam, you just heard it, this really has nothing to do with me." β
Mrs. Qin was not stupid, and remembered that in the middle of the night before yesterday, Li Qi and Ma Qiao's master and apprentice were plotting something in the front yard, and said, "Is this really the case?" But I always think that this must have something to do with you. β
The matter is still undecided, so don't let her know about it. Li Qi spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Madam, I can only say that you have thought too much. β
As soon as he finished saying this, someone outside the door said, "Chairman, Mrs. Bai is here." β
Depend on! There's more to come! What a big deal -- it seems like a big deal. Li Qi was embarrassed, and his face crackled.
Mrs. Qin realized that something big must have happened, otherwise Mrs. Bai would not have rushed here so anxiously, glared at Li Qi slightly, and then quickly returned to her office.
Before Li Qi could say please come in, Madame Bai pushed the door in very rudely, and her first sentence was to tell her entourage: "You wait outside first." Then he closed the door again.
Li Qi tried hard to show a smile and said, "Hello aunt, why did you come here today?" His eyes glanced at Mrs. Qin's office and motioned to her not to talk nonsense.
But Madame Bai didn't seem to notice this, and snorted: "Li Qi, you always sue me, do you already know the existence of that door?" β
Li Qi was bitter in his heart, and he stubbornly said: "What door? β
Madam Bai's eyes widened, and she said, "You are still pretending to be confused with me here, I already know what happened in the palace yesterday." β
Li Qi said in a humble heart: "What did the left minister say? After all, Li Bangyan and Bai Shizhong are in the same party, and it is reasonable for Mrs. Bai to know about this.
Madame Bai waved her hand and said, "You don't care who said it, you just need to answer me, whether this qiΔ was all arranged by you." β
Li Qi spread his hands and didn't know at a loss: "What arrangement, what does this have to do with me?" β
Madam Bai sneered and said, "Okay, it's all at this time, you still don't want to admit it, remember that you tried your best to lead the topic to the relationship between the minister and the chamberlain, and asked me about the strictness of this matter." I was a little skeptical at the time, but I didn't expect you to discover such a shocking secret, and you hid it from me. β
No, it's the Year of the Monkey, you still remember it so clearly. Li Qi didn't know how to answer for a while.
Madame Bai said, "What? Have I wronged you? Seriously, I've been reminding myself not to look down on you, but I never thought that I would still underestimate you now, the big secret, you can hide it impenetrable, and this patience alone is very accessible. β
Can I not be cautious about this? Li Qi poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Bai, handed it over, and did not deny it anymore, and said with a smile: "Auntie, drink a cup of tea first." Whether this has anything to do with me or not, I don't think it makes sense to say this at this time. β
Madame Bai took the teacup and said, "I know this, but there is a question I have to ask." β
"What's the problem?"
"Why? Why did you endure it for so long, but you poked it out at this time? Madame Bai frowned and stared at Li Qidao.
Just kidding, when Lao Tzu was in trouble, apart from Bai Qiannuo, did your Bai family ever lend a hand? Li Qi said: "Auntie, do you still need to ask this question, I have been forced by the king to only have half a life left, so I have to try to protect myself." β
Madame Bai squinted her eyes and said, "Is that really the case?" I don't think so. If Wang Huang falls, the British Duke is the most hopeful to replace him, but this is exactly what you don't want to see, because once you have a conflict with the British Duke, the Taishi can't help you, which makes you seem particularly weak, and the biggest enemy of the British Duke in the court is you, so if you are not sure to prevent the British Duke from ascending to the throne, you will definitely not poke this matter out, you must have done something I don't know. β
Li Qi didn't have a temper at all when she said this, and said, "Then aunt, what can I do?" If you want no people, you don't have power, don't think I'm as good as you, I'm still far away. β
Madam Bai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "That's right, you want no people, you want power or not, things have developed to this point, it is indeed difficult for you to make a difference." β
"Isn't it?" Li Qi nodded hurriedly.
Madam Bai smiled and said, "Then there is only one possibility, that is, someone is already preparing." β
"Uh, who?"
"You know." Madame Bai sat down at this time, because she already knew what she wanted to know, took a sip of tea, and said, "Indeed, from your standpoint, it is in your best interest to do this." Alas, when I came, I naively thought that with your relationship with Qi Niang, you would take into account the interests of our Bai family, so it seems that you still only care about yourself! β
Li Qi sat opposite Madame Bai and said, "Auntie, what you said is not right. β
Madame Bai sighed and said, "I want to hear and see." β
"Don't dare to be. In fact, the reason is very simple, if I am good, we will all be good, after all, we are a family. β
Madame Bai smiled with relief and said, "I hope so." Can you sue me, how sure are you? β
Li Qi said: "You asked the wrong person, how would I know." β
Mrs. Bai believed this, nodded, sighed, and said: "Li Qi, if there is a day, the Bai Mansion will also leak such a door, and my aunt hopes that you can be forgiving and forgiving for Qi Niang's sake, and don't do things desperately." She understands that if Cai Jing comes out of the mountain again, then Li Qi's status will be turned upside down again.
Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "This aunt, please rest assured, I will never stand on the opposite side of the Bai family." β
Madame Bai nodded with a smile and said with emotion: "I thought that I might say this to you in the future, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. Okay, I have to go back, you don't have to send it. β
"Wait." Li Qi suddenly said, "Auntie, have you told Uncle SΓΉ about this?" β
Madame Bai was curious: "What are you afraid of now?" β
"Auntie, don't you forget that this matter is not just about Wang Xiang."
Madame Bai sighed and said, "I understand, don't worry, I didn't say it." β
"Thank you."
As soon as Madame Bai went out, Madame Qin walked out, and this time she didn't need to speak, Li Qi immediately confessed: "Okay, I admit that this matter has a little to do with me. (To be continued.) )
