Chapter 250: The Scramble

The plan to marry a wife and have children for Qi Qingchu fell through early in the morning.

Mrs. Qi was very distressed, he didn't expect that he had gathered so many excellent women in the city, and none of them could make his son tempted.

Originally, I was going to catch the duck on the shelf, but who knew that this duck was really cunning.

In fact, at the beginning, Mrs. Qi was not worried at all, she fully believed that her son could handle all this, whether it was family affairs or court affairs.

However, the balance of the mind is always tilted, and the two cannot be completely unified.

The consequence of this is that Qi Qingchu is addicted to official affairs and cannot extricate himself.

He was already old enough to marry and have children, but he didn't do it, he didn't do the right thing at the right age.

More or less it is still criticized.

On the other hand, Mrs. Qi saw that other people's families had already hugged their grandchildren, and every time she saw others holding cute fat dolls, she always felt that her hands were itchy, and he also wanted to hold his children's children, and hold his grandchildren to play everywhere and show off everywhere.

But her son has never been able to let her get her wish, so after a long time, Mrs. Qi will inevitably change her mind and then do something to catch ducks on the shelves.

But the problem is that these things always revolve around one person, and that is her son Qi Qingchu

However, Qi Qingchu didn't have the slightest preparation, he handled his official affairs in a hurry, and he ignored and didn't take his wife's small actions and behaviors in private to heart.

Therefore, Qi Qingchu could only laugh at the behavior taken by his mother.

Just like Li Jicai asked, there have been ups and downs in the court, and they all say which family's daughter Qi Qingchu wants to marry.

This family said this and that said that, no one argued about a reason, and in the end, when the rumors and rumors slowly disappeared, Qi Qingchu had not yet married a wife and had children.

Maybe just like what he wanted to say at the beginning, he shouldn't be tempted by any woman before he meets a suitable woman he likes, or even thinks it's very good.

Qi Qingchu has always been an extremely self-disciplined person, not even the landlord's house-filling girl, and most of his subordinates are men.

But it is precisely because of this that he will be said by others to be said to have a noble character and be upright.

In fact, what kind of person is in private also requires a lot of contact.

However, in the corner that Li Jicai couldn't see, Qi Qingchu had already begun to set up for her.

Qi Qingchu didn't figure out why Li Jicai was mixed up with the four princes, and it can be traced back to the previous incident Qi Qingchu always believed that someone must be secretly helping him, but as long as this person in the secret did not endanger them for the time being, and did not endanger the government of the Chu State, it was only a matter of time before they were resolved.

Almost at the same time, someone spread the news that Li Jicai and Xi Zien were sitting together and talking secretly.

The fourth prince, Jiang Xihu, was extremely nervous, because he didn't know what Li Jicai had talked about with that Qi Qingchu person, there were some omissions, and some places could see his problems after checking.

Before he finished using Li Jicai, Jiang Xihu didn't want to lose this useful chess piece for the time being.

Okay, since Li Jicai wants to be an official so much, then help fulfill her dream, anyway, it doesn't matter if you are a nine-grade sesame official.

Just when he learned that Li Jizai was about to arrive in the capital in a few days, the people of the fourth prince Jiang Xihu cleaned the courtyard where Li Jicai was located.

Then I reorganized the whole Suiyuanju, but because there was no chef, it was not open for the time being, and it could only be barely for others to see.

In the past, things related to Li Qicai were intentionally mentioned by Jiang Xihu in private and handed over to his subordinates, so that they must keep it, so that Li Jicai could see his sincerity and sincerity in treating her, which could also make Li Jicai work for them even more desperately.

And don't worry about anything else, in fact, Li Jicai's return to the capital is both a good thing and a bad thing, which is actually a concentrated effort for the fourth prince Jiang Xihu.

The first is to find a suitable identity for Li Jicai, and then arrange for her to pave the way for her.

Although the concubine has some despicable feelings, as long as Li Jicai does not blame him, and even admires him a little.

"Immediately send someone to find Li Jicai who went out for me, and tie me back at all costs, even if it is tied up."

Jiang Xihu is really not at ease, he is really not worried about what bad influence Xi Zien will have on Li Jicai, and he is also worried that he will have a rebellious heart and then not be manipulated by him.

Obviously, he had warned him when he was in the city gate tower, but Li Jicai didn't seem to appreciate it, and even after going through the process, he was able to go drinking with Xi Zien.

It's just daring!

didn't take him seriously, but when Li Jicai arrived at him, Jiang Xihu secretly swore in his heart that no matter what, he must let Li Jicai take a good look at his strength and take a good look at his strong strength.

After receiving the order, his subordinates went out directly, and then hurriedly went to find Li Jicai's traces.

This capital is so big, and there are some people who take special care of them, and what happens to them will also receive special attention.

After experiencing so many things, Li Jicai's first thought was not to hide or hide incognito or whatever, but to be generous and drink with Xi Zien.

People know that Xi Zien's alcohol consumption has always been good, but this daughter's drinking volume is not necessarily

As a result, Xi Zien himself didn't expect that Li Jicai would still be able to have a few drinks with him.

The conversation between Li Jicai and Xi Zien more or less caused a commotion among some forces, and they were worried that once this woman joined forces with Xi Zien, it would be equivalent to giving Xi Zien another strength.

Li Jicai and Xi Zien didn't chat for long, except that the atmosphere was a little tense at the beginning.

But in later times, they were much better, and the two men talked mostly peacefully, with few differences.

Of course, there is another point, that is, when snatching peanuts on the table, the two people will quarrel, but I didn't expect that the fried peanuts made by Qingfeng Restaurant are really delicious.

At this moment, if you don't talk about official or private affairs, you can guess any nonsense, and no one will interrupt you.

After all, they just said it in their room, and if they said it in front of many people, it would definitely attract some people's attention.

I don't know why, later Li Jicai and Xi Zien were eating and eating, and they lost their poetry and even woke up to the wine order, the two of them made a lot of noise in the restaurant, and no one could enter the guards outside, so the two of them were not restrained in the room. No one bothered with them, and certainly no one dared to take care of them.

When they were halfway through eating, suddenly the people from the Hu family of Jiangxi Province, the fourth prince, sent someone over, and the other one was someone sent by Qi Qingchu.

The difference between these No. 2 people is that there is No. 1 person who asks to take Li Jicai away and bring him back to the Four Princes' Mansion, and the other pair asks to take Li Jicai and Xi Zien together and bring them to Qi Mansion.

In short, the purpose is different, but the process is the same.

Both of them were drunk, and they were in a state of delirium at this moment, and if they insisted on saying something to them, they would definitely not understand if they were irrational.

Several guards looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, no one knows what to do, in the end, the people in Xi Zien's family stood up and said that they would bring Xi Ziren to Qi Qingchu first, and Li Jicai would come back to the Four Princes' Mansion first, if there is any need to meet together in a hurry in the future, I will notify you when the time comes, and then we will bring everyone together together.

This arrangement is undoubtedly the most reasonable, and the others have nothing to protest about, because after all, they have been out for so long, and after the first return, there are still many opportunities, so there is no need to worry too much.

At least up and down the court, who doesn't know that this woman who has just come out is actually a person under the four princes?

In this way, Li Jicai's return to the Four Princes' Mansion seems to be the most correct choice, and it was originally Xi Zien's whim, and he insisted on pulling Li Jicai to drink together.

The guards and servants who listened beside him testified that the two men had gone mad for a moment, and now they were drunk and groggy with alcohol, and they almost looked like they were unconscious.

The wine in this piano restaurant is full of stamina, and Li Jicai and Xi Zien have drunk about four or five jars together, and the stomachs of both of them are round, which can be highlighted, and it is very clear and obvious when they come out.

If you didn't know the inside story, you would think that these two people were pregnant.

When Li Jicai was dragged away by the people in the Four Princes' Mansion, she was still a little reluctant, because she felt that she hadn't drunk enough and could stay for a few more rounds, but the subordinates in the Four Princes' Mansion didn't want to give Li Jicai such a chance.

If you drink too much and go crazy outside, you will definitely get into trouble. And now Li Jizai is dragging a sick body to drink and hurt his body, which will be even more troublesome to toss, and the doctor will have to follow her for a long time.

It seems that such a person never cherishes his body, and he does not feel how harmful he is with his temperament.

But perhaps this is the proof that she lives unbridled and free.

Even if he has been burdened too much, even if he has experienced too much, even if he has faced too much, Li Jicai may still be able to show his strength and unyielding in some aspects from beginning to end.

After the person sent by Qi Qingchu to pick up people came back, he found that there was only a mat, and when he came back alone, he didn't see any trace of Li Jicai, so he couldn't help but ask with great concern.

The first family told everyone the ins and outs of this matter, and explained it carefully before and after.

Because Li Jicai was already drunk at that time, and there were people on Li Jicai's side who came to look for her.

Therefore, it is not easy for the people in their Qi Mansion to forcibly snatch that person Li Jicai away.

After all, everything has to be divided into a first come, first come, first come, the people in the Four Princes' Mansion are indeed faster than the people in the Qi Mansion, but it is also a matter of front and back.

The guards in the Qi Mansion don't know too much about the situation in the court, but they all uphold the most basic principles when they are outside, do not cause trouble, are not afraid of things, are humble and polite, and treat people meekly.

Therefore, in the face of the relatively strong people of the Four Princes' Ancestors, the guards in the Qi Mansion may be a little shorter.

But it doesn't matter, with Qi Qingchu's ability, he has always been able to strategize and arrange properly.

So when Qi Qingchu reacted, he didn't want to quickly write a post on the table, naming and saying that he wanted the fourth prince to bring Li Jicai to his mansion for a banquet.

In fact, this is something that rarely happens, first of all, Qi Qingchu has never liked to invite guests to his home, and he can hide and avoid any birthday banquet he usually holds.

So when he was able to let his subordinates propose to invite others to his house as guests today, the people present who knew the inside story couldn't help but be stunned, or did this woman really have such a great magic power, and she even cared about some men, and the identities of these men were not low.

The first to bear the brunt was Qi Qingchu, such a man, who was almost the coveted husband of the entire capital and the entire Chu State, would take the initiative to write a letter of worship to the four princes and invite Li Jicai to his mansion.

But when he looked back, he also thought about it carefully, this matter is not too high-profile, and the number of people who know it is limited.

But being able to feel Qi Qingchu's respect and care in this way is also very comforting.

Whatever!

Li Jicai was carried back to the Four Princes' Mansion, and then placed in the room that had been prepared to rest, and only after sleeping for a day and a night did he wake up leisurely.

Of course, the first thing she said when she woke up was: "I want to go to the toilet, I'm going to suffocate, suffocate." There was even infinite grievance and sadness in the tone of his voice.

Li Jicai's hands couldn't help but rub his eyes, his head exploded, and he was generally very uncomfortable, with a sudden pain, and the was also jumping and jumping, as if there was a dancing little man who had been stepping on his temple.

No matter how Li Jicai kneaded it, he couldn't improve, the pain was dying, and he couldn't help but want to beat his head.

The initiator of this incident blames Xi Zien, and he also blames him for being a little carried away at the beginning, and even taking Li Jicai is alive.

When I opened my eyes and woke up, it was like I had been abused.

That's right, if it weren't for the hard work of others, Li Jicai wouldn't want to get out of the warm quilt at all.
