Ge Luohong and Qian Zhongshu's plea made Ge Luofeng furious, he looked at the two of them, shook his head and said: "It's really ridiculous, my edict is to let you treat it as child's play!" I have said these things, if you are guilty today, I can spare you death, but you remember to me that no matter how much credit you have, even if you are my own brother, as long as you violate the law of the country and are guilty of crimes against the people, you will not escape death. ”

"Qianpu's crime, the evidence is conclusive, no one is allowed to intercede!" Over, Ge Luofeng left the Golden Palace directly, leaving Ge Luohong and Qian Zhongshu behind, looking at each other blankly, when everyone left the Golden Palace, Li Qi caught up with Ge Luohong and said: "Marshal, you are too reckless today, this will harm your own." ”

Ge Luohong looked at Li Qi and said, "It turned out to be the prince, why, you are also in the Golden Palace today?" I didn't see you. ”

"I'm behind the Golden Palace, and the king asked me to listen there, mainly for the sake of Qianpu, but after all, I'm not from the Nanzhao Kingdom, and I can't easily enter the Golden Palace, which will make the minister dissatisfied. But in this matter, the marshal came forward to intercede, it is a big mistake, it will make the king suspicious of you, and even angry with you, Qianpu's execution is already a certainty, and it is impossible for anyone to intercede It is useless, but the marshal is a leader today. ”

Ge Luohong frowned, and said: "Qian Zhongshu came to bother me, I really can't help it, after all, he is my general, I don't speak for him, and it is difficult for the people below to obey me." But it's really a bit reckless today, I see that the eldest brother is angry, Lord Wang, what do you think Ben Shuai should do? ”

Li Qi smiled: "That's it, it's better for the marshal to go to my place for a drink or two, maybe we can talk, and there is a way to ease up." In this way, Ge Luohong followed Li Qi to the West Pavilion Garden, and after arriving at the West Pavilion Garden, Li Qi said to Ge Luohong: "The marshal is in the hall later, I will order someone to prepare wine and food, and I will have a good chat with the marshal later." ”

After Li Qi left, Ge Luohong entered the hall alone, and suddenly, he saw a familiar figure, wearing a light blue dress, long hair that reached vertically to the waist, and the face that Ge Luohong would see in his dreams. The other party was also startled when he saw Ge Luohong, and then said with a smile: "Marshal, why did you come to Xige Garden, I didn't expect to see you here." ”

"Ruolin... Oh no, princess, Ben Shuai was invited here, but I didn't expect the princess to be here, forgive Ben Shuai for being reckless. ”

Princess Qi shook her head: "It's okay, I was also invited to Ci, a few days ago the prince gave me a piece of obsidian, which is a gem that can only be seen in our tribe, I heard that there are many in Xige Garden, and he just invited me to come and see it today." Look at this obsidian carved crying flower, it is a sacred flower that symbolizes our tribe, I didn't expect the prince to have it here, I haven't seen this kind of flower for many years. ”

Looking at Princess Qi's appearance, Ge Luohong gradually became a little stupid, and suddenly, Li Qi walked in and said, "Look at my memory, I forgot that the princess also came to see obsidian today, Princess Qi, my subordinates didn't snub you, right?" ”

"Of course, they're very welcoming, the masked swordsman was still introducing me to Obsidian, but he's gone for a while, and he'll be back in a moment. There are really a lot of treasures here, and I haven't seen these obsidian for a long time, and when I see them, I think of the days when I lived in the tribe. ”

Suddenly, Ge Luohong spoke: "Lord, the princess likes this obsidian carved flower very much, I don't know if I can give this to the princess, if it is too valuable, Ben Shuai can buy it." ”

Li Qi smiled and said: "Where is the marshal, as long as Princess Qi likes it, you can pick whatever you want here, so let's do it, the princess is not convenient, early tomorrow morning, I will send someone to the Qingxiang Palace." I have already ordered someone to prepare wine and food, if the two of you don't dislike it, let's eat together later, Princess Qi, this king still has something to discuss with the marshal, so please ask the princess to be here later, and I will let the Blood Shadow Swordsman come over. ”

Zheng Lin, who was outside the door, walked in after hearing it, and said, "I'm sorry princess, there was something just now, I will continue to introduce these things to you, Lord Wang, you go first, leave it to me here." After Li Qi and the others left, Zheng Lin looked at Princess Qi and said, "The marshal is really generous, I heard it outside the door just now, he actually wants to buy this and give it to the princess, it seems that the relationship between the princess and the marshal is not bad." ”

Zheng Lin seemed to have come out of this by accident, he observed that Qi Ruolin's eyes were a little sad, but they quickly returned to normal, Zheng Lin saw it in his eyes, and then introduced these obsidian antiques to Qi Ruolin. On the other side, after Li Qi and Ge Luohong went to the study, Li Qi deliberately said: "The relationship between the marshal and the princess's uncle and sister-in-law is not bad, I have always thought that the so-called family affection of the emperor's family is very indifferent, but today it seems that the marshal also has a tender side." ”

Ge Luohong smiled: "Where, the princess is actually a foreigner, from the Hui tribe, when she was rescued, she was only one person, lonely, and later accepted as a concubine by the eldest brother." In fact, she is quite pitiful, so in my opinion, she is different from other princesses, she still maintains that purity. ”

Hearing Ge Luohong like this, Li Qi smiled secretly in his heart, and then continued: "Get up, these obsidian antiques are really hard to find, I bought them on the black market, but Nanzhao may not have cherry blossoms If Princess Qi likes it, next time she returns to the Central Plains, she can go to the black market again or bring some to her." ”

Li Qi observed Ge Luohong's expression, and then continued: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about Qianpu, now we must restore the marshal's position in the king's heart." Although the king doesn't talk about this matter, he must still be dissatisfied with you, so he must think of a solution, otherwise it will affect the marshal's career in the future. ”

"Probably not, he is my eldest brother, he knows me best, no matter what, I can't betray him, how can he doubt me?"

Li Qi shook his head: "Marshal, you don't understand, a companion is like a tiger, in the eyes of an emperor, whether he can sit on the throne is the most important, and anyone who can shake his position, he will get rid of it." First of all, the marshal has a heavy army, which is a point that the king trusts and fears, but what if there is one, the king no longer trusts the marshal so much? He will think that you have two hearts and that you want to take his place. ”

"With all due respect, in the face of absolute status, family affection is not worth mentioning, and above the court today, the marshal seems to be just interceding for Qianpu, but the king will feel that you have two hearts for him. Because what Qianpu committed was a capital crime, and it aroused the anger of the people, if such a person is not dealt with, the king's status in the hearts of the people will plummet, and the marshal's intercession is undoubtedly to make the king feel that you want him to be resented by the people. ”

Hearing Li Qi like this, Ge Luohong finally understood, no wonder Ge Luofeng left the hundred officials directly, it seems that he really asked for mercy wrongly, and now he only hopes that Ge Luofeng will not misunderstand him.
