Chapter 8: Face Saint

At this time, Qin Li had already pounced on Yue Leopard with all his strength. Hearing this, he was suddenly startled, but he couldn't restrain his feet due to inertia, and his two fists that were clenched tightly and full of strength smashed heavily on Yue Leopard's chest.

When Yue Bao heard that sissy, he had already turned his head to look, and when he saw that it were two little eunuchs in eunuch uniforms, he couldn't help but be stunned, and he received two punches from Qin Li.

Rao is Yue Leopard has a stout body and a sturdy body. After receiving Qin Li's full blow, he also took a few steps back before he stood still.

Yue Bao panicked and asked inarticulately, "Do you know the emperor?" ”

Qin Li was slightly stunned, got off the donkey down the slope, and grinned, "What's wrong?" Of course the master knows the emperor, and the emperor is the master's iron buddy! What's all the fuss about? ”

Qin Li had already seen that Yue Bao was frightened by the eunuch, and said lightly.

Although he said this, Qin Li was even more puzzled in his heart. The two eunuchs said that the emperor wanted to see me? How do I know the emperor? What is the emperor looking for me?

A series of questions swirled in my mind, but this was not the time to be stunned. Qin Li turned his head and said to the two little eunuchs, "Tell the emperor to wait for me first, and I'll take care of this group of gangsters and then go to see him!" ”

The two little eunuchs looked at each other, their mouths opened, and they didn't say anything.

Secretly said, what kind of master is this, the emperor wants to see him, and let the emperor wait, what a boldness! Could it be that he has lived too long, and that head wants to move?

At this time, everyone in the courtyard had already stopped, and they were all looking at Qin Li and the two eunuchs in surprise with their mouths wide open.

Qin Li's face turned cold, and he was about to raise his fist to hit Yue Leopard again.

That Yue Leopard had been stunned for a long time, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, hug his fist at Qin Li, and said with a smile, "Master, my Yue Leopard has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and I am so offended today." The prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, don't take it to heart! ”

Qin Li snorted with a cold face, looking at Lin Yan'er, she was not hurt in the slightest. looked at the old man Lin Ying again, and saw that although Lin Ying was panting like a cow, she was obviously tired enough just now, but her body didn't seem to be injured. Qin Li was relieved at this time.

Just wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate and scold again, and even beat Yue Bao once, suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred in his mind, and a thought grew in his mind.

Qin Li laughed twice, and then said, "Yue Bao, you listen to the master, the master still has important things to do today, and the master will not be as knowledgeable as you." That's all it has been for now. ”

"Thank you, sir! My dear master! Yue Bao said happily.

"If you want to trouble the master again, even if you come, it won't be so cheap next time. Besides, if you are honest and obedient and want to work in the gambling house, you can come to me in two days. Master can show you a clear way out. Qin Li said lightly.

That Yue leopard's face was red and his ears were red, and the black head was like a chicken pecking rice, and he couldn't stop nodding yes.

Qin Li waved his hand and said, "Get out!" ”

Yue Bao is a disgraced face, he is really arrogant, and he is very embarrassed. He waved his hand weakly, "Brothers, let's go!" ”

In other words, spread your legs, and run faster than a rabbit.

The people who came with him were also like the runners who participated in the 100-meter race, one by one.

Qin Li looked at their backs, the corners of his smug mouth raised slightly, and he smiled softly, then he turned around, bowed to the ground at the two little eunuchs, and said with a smile, "Let the two fathers-in-law see and laugh, come, two fathers-in-law, hurry up and please!" ”

Qin Li bent over and respectfully stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please.

"Hey, hey! Qin Gongzi, you are polite. It's the emperor who wants to see you today, but it's easy for the two of us to find you! I didn't think of your family, and I still encountered this thing, it's really unlucky! A little eunuch of medium stature with a slightly darker face said.

"There are two fathers-in-law, this little bit of heart is not a tribute, and I hope that my father-in-law will buy a cup of tea to drink."

Qin Li said, he had already taken out two pieces of silver from his arms, each weighing about seven or eight taels, and handed them to the two of them.

Now it is not what it used to be, and the Lin family gambling house is full of money. Although the time is still short, the Lin family is also very wealthy, and Qin Li often has to carry a little silver tael with him. It's no longer the down-and-out gentleman who ate the last meal and didn't eat the next meal a month ago, let alone carry the silver in his arms.

The two little eunuchs accepted the silver, hurriedly put it into their arms, and immediately showed joy and joy, and said with a smile, "Qin Gongzi! You're seeing outside, let's not go in, the emperor and his old man are waiting to see you, let's go! ”

"That's how to treat the two fathers-in-law slowly!" Qin Li was serious.

"What's that talking about? We came to you for the emperor, and if we take you there, we will pay for it! Let's go! The black-faced little eunuch pulled up Qin Li and walked out.

Lin Ying, Lin Yan'er, and the Lin family were really dumbfounded at this time. Who would have thought that this robbed son-in-law would still be an old acquaintance with the emperor, it's really amazing!

Where would they have thought that Qin Li would change in a hurry, and the reason why he said that was completely to scare Yue Bao and the others.

Qin Li came out of the courtyard with the two little eunuchs and walked quickly towards the emperor's palace.

Along the way, Qin Li accosted two little eunuchs, and only then did he know that the Ming Emperor had quietly come to Yangzhou this morning, and the people of Yangzhou almost didn't know.

This emperor is really an uncertain master, and this journey is sometimes fanfare, showing off his might, sometimes quietly, and very low-key. It's all up to his mood.

Yangzhou is a rich area, and there are many wealthy families. Wu Jing, the chief eunuch of the capital governor, had already occupied a wealthy residence in Yangzhou City as a palace for him.

This mansion is more spacious and luxurious than Wu Jing's line, and it is much more beautiful and magnificent. Qin Li once again felt the gap between people, and once again was full of infinite yearning for glory and wealth.

After entering the palace and walking for a long time, the two little eunuchs finally stopped, turned their heads and whispered to Qin Li, "Gongzi Qin, the emperor is inside now, you wait for a while, let us go and report it." ”

Qin Li nodded hurriedly. The black-faced little eunuch trotted and gently pushed the door in.

This is about to see the Ming Emperor, and he is also the most famous absurd and nonsense emperor in history, Zhu Houzhao. At this time, Qin Li's heart had already mentioned his throat, and he was extremely excited. Qin Li straightened his chest, wiped his face, and stood straight outside, waiting to listen to Xuan.

"Isn't it just a meal? What are you doing with all this luxury? Extravagance and waste, my Ming Dynasty is now in a difficult state of national strength, and life is not easy! You are all officials of the Ming Dynasty, you should be sympathetic to the people's feelings! Hum! I'm so angry, I won't eat it! ”

A loud, very loud voice came from within. Qin Li was stunned for a moment, only the emperor claimed to be me, and it seemed that the emperor was angry.

Hearing the emperor speak like this, Qin Li thought that it seemed that he should be a good emperor. This is obviously different from the Zhu Houzhao recorded in the history books.

In his later life, Qin Li learned from the history books that Zhu Houzhao was a shameless and shameless man who ate, drank and had fun.

Hearing what he said today, where can I find the shadow of the faint king?

History books! It's all made up by posterity, and it's really debatable how authentic it is!

"You convert all the money you paid for these meals into cash and give it directly to me. My leopard house is short of money right now! The Emperor's voice continued, but this time it didn't have the anger it had just now, and it seemed to snicker.

"......" Qin Li was dumbfounded.

Inside, too, there was silence.

In fact, where will the emperor be short of money, isn't he just talking like this on purpose, trying to have fun!

"It's still thoughtful that the emperor thinks, the old slave remembers!" Qin Li clearly judged that this was Wu Jing's voice.

"Okay, did you find Qin Li, who invented mahjong?" Emperor Zhengde asked softly.

"He's waiting outside!" Wu Jing hurriedly responded.

"Humph! Since he has already come, why don't you let him come to see me? Let him in! ”

The black-faced little eunuch Fei also came out of it, and lowered his voice and told Qin Li in his ear, "You must be cautious after you go in, you can't bump into the emperor." ”

Take people's money and eliminate disasters with others. The little eunuch accepted Qin Li's benefits, so he naturally wanted to show it.

Qin Li didn't dare to slack off, and strode into the hall. Just a glance, I saw a lot of people standing in the hall.

Those people, dressed in various official uniforms, were standing with their heads bowed. In the middle of a huge chair sat a young man wearing a dragon crown and a dragon robe. Far away, Qin Li could feel the unique majesty of his body.

Just a quick glance, Qin Li didn't see his appearance clearly at all, hurriedly knelt down on his knees, and said loudly, "Qin Li, the grass people, knock on the emperor, long live the emperor!" Hooray! The grass people wish the emperor good health, eat well, and have a good mood every day! ”

"Huh! Really talkative! Emperor Zhengde sighed.

"Get up! Let me take a good look at you! ”

Qin Li got up from the ground at this time.

Looking directly at the king, that's not a small crime. Although Qin Li stood up, he still lowered his head slightly. But even so, he could see the emperor's face clearly.

Emperor Zhengde has a black face, good facial features, and a heroic appearance, which is very kind of not angry and arrogant.

Emperor Zhengde's eyes were firmly fixed on Qin Li, and Qin Li was furious.

After watching it for a long time, Emperor Zhengde suddenly laughed and waved his hand, "I have withdrawn the dinner, I won't eat it!" ”

Then he said to Qin Li, "As soon as I came to Yangzhou, I was attracted by Yangzhou's mahjong. I heard that you invented mahjong, it's really my talent! Come on, get mahjong quickly, I want to have a good time with Qin Li. Jiang Bin, Wu Jing, you two will accompany you! The four of us are exactly at the same table. ”
