Chapter 291: The Coming Storm (5)
Hearing what the fifth uncle said, everyone quieted down, and their eyes fell on Qi Maosheng, who had not made a sound.
Qi Maosheng's expression was condensed, seeing that everyone's eyes fell on him, his pupils shrank, his face showed a blade-like sharpness and coldness, and the whole person was as murderous as a unsheathed sword: "The ancestor divorced his wife and killed his son, everyone forgot about it!" ”
Everyone was stunned, and there was a dead silence in the room.
"Hmm!" Qi Maosheng snorted coldly, and his tone was calm, "Don't say it's a flat wife, even if it's a concubine, I won't agree!" ”
After a while, the seventh uncle ancestor raised his gray goatee and said in a hoarse voice: "Maosheng, what do you mean, what do you mean......
Qi Maosheng's face was solemn, and he glanced at Qi Xiao, who was sitting beside him without saying a word.
Qi Xiao coughed lightly, successfully focusing everyone's attraction on him.
He picked up an account book beside him, slowly turned the first page, and said, "My second brother and I have settled an account. Since we conquered Gaochang in 299 years, Gaochang's annual tax has increased at a rate of 20 percent, and the highest was last year, an increase of 50 percent......"
Since receiving Qi Xiao's spy report, Qi Maosheng asked him to carefully touch the bottom of his family. In a war, what is important is that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. If you have money in your hands, you won't panic in your heart, and you can talk to everyone, and you can also calm everyone's hearts...... I think that at the beginning, I was so poor that I fought with Gao Chang, let alone now......
Everyone listened thoughtfully as Qi Xiao settled the score.
Qi Maosheng observed everyone's expressions sharply, and when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw Siping shrinking and quietly moving his steps outside.
This guy. I'm afraid I'm going to report to Xiyan again!
Xiyan is a breezy look in front of him every time. In fact, as soon as I move a little, I immediately get nervous. It's like a tanuki with wide-eyed eyes and hair standing up......
Come to think of it. The corners of Qi Maosheng's mouth couldn't help but curl.
Speaking of which. Siping is also a little older. This often runs with the inner court. Something is already wrong. But. Xiyan has always liked his cleverness...... Let's use it for a few more years. I'm not in a hurry to change people in a moment!
Siping eyebrows fluttered and told Gu Xiyan about what happened in the pear orchard: "Master said." Don't say it's a flat wife. It's to be a concubine. I won't say yes! ”
Gu Xiyan didn't smile as happily as he thought. Instead, he said hurriedly: "You go back quickly." Let's hear it again. Let's see how you discussed it with the elders! ”
Siping was puzzled, but he still answered "yes" and quickly ran towards Qinyuan.
I don't know if Mau Sheng is confident, or is he reckless?
Gu Xiyan frowned.
When Siping tiptoed back to Moqin Garden, Qi Maosheng said categorically: "...... Just tell the people of Xizhao directly, no need to beat around the bush. ”
The third uncle hurriedly persuaded: "It's better to be tactful." Why should you offend anyone? ”
Qi Maosheng glanced at the third uncle coldly. "If they accept it, they accept it, and they don't accept it...... I'm waiting here, he's going to make some moves. I'll do it all! ”
Before the third uncle could say anything, Qi Wei had already stood up.
His expression was serious, and he said, "I agree with Maosheng's meaning, this matter is directly back to Xizhao." If they're not satisfied, we'll see it on the battlefield...... Anyway, there is always a war, so it is better to take advantage of this opportunity to fight, it is much cheaper than fighting again when Xizhao is waiting for the battle. ”
Spend all day drinking and knowing!
Not bad. It's a good time. The court sent troops to Liangdi, and the Shu army was entangled in Xizhou, and Jindi was ready to get a piece of the pie at any time...... If you don't turn your face with Xizhao at this time, when will you turn it?
Qi Maosheng raised the corners of his eyebrows and looked at Qi Zhi thoughtfully.
After a short silence, the second uncle also stood up: "I agree with Mao Sheng's meaning!" ”
The third uncle also nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to everyone." ”
The Seventh Uncle Ancestor sighed: "Mao Sheng, the net worth and life of all the people of the Qi family will be handed over to you." ”
That's it. It's basically settled.
Qi Xiao stood up: "Everyone is tired, the second brother has prepared wine and food in the warm pavilion, take this opportunity to get together." ”
Everyone in the room moved their tables and pushed chairs and got up and went to the warm house.
At the banquet, Qi Maosheng personally poured a glass of wine for Qi Zhi, "Fourth uncle, we are short of manpower now, so you can come to the yamen to help me!" ”
The dispute between the sons of Qi Yu's brothers is still fresh in the memory of the older generation.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be surprised. The atmosphere at the wine table was also a little solemn.
Qi Wei showed a lewd smile: "Your fourth uncle and me." Except for eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, there is nothing to do...... You'd better let me continue to be the poor dude on Willow Street! ”
Qi Maosheng raised his glass towards Qi Bing. I drank it first as a respect, and said with a smile: "That's right, just help me receive the Qincha!" ”
Qi Wei laughed out loud, and winked at Qi Maosheng: "That eunuch, you can't play with me!" ”
Although the others all let out an ambiguous laugh, their eyes all showed a cautious look.
Qi Maosheng stared at Qi Zhi with a straight face: "But the fourth uncle can think of it with me......"
A cynical smile condensed at the corner of Qi Zhi's mouth, and Qi Maosheng smiled and poured him another glass of wine: "The matter of giving marriage, then give it all to the fourth uncle......
That day, the snow fell heavily, Qi Wei drank very happily in the company of Qi Xiao, and he left last, so everyone didn't know, when Qi Maosheng sent him out, he looked at Qi Maosheng with clear eyes: "Shannan County, what are you going to do?" ”
Qi Maosheng smiled faintly: "When it comes to the things in my hands, it is generally difficult to return them!" ”
Looking at the snowflakes in the sky, Qi Wei sighed: "So you are ready to fight Jiangzhong County?" ”
"Not bad!" Qi Maosheng looked at it.
The entire Yongzhou City was shrouded in a layer of white, covered in snow, and the little man who cowered his hands and feet stood in front of the carriage with an octagonal glass lamp that emitted a faint orange light, waiting for the master.
Qi Wei was not in a hurry to get into the car, stood under the eaves of the door and was silent for a long time, and said abruptly: "What my father didn't do, what my eldest brother didn't do, you did...... Don't let this good situation down. ”
Qi Maosheng smiled: "Fourth uncle, as long as there is still a breath, I will not bow my head to Xizhao." ”
Qi Maosheng entered the door. I heard Gu Xiyan's sweet voice singing softly: "The moon is bright, the wind is light, and the leaves are gently shining on the window lattice...... soothing warmth flows, making those disputes and fatigue suddenly become very distant, the dim lights, warm breath, and sweet singing are all like freeze frames, staying at this moment.
Qi Maosheng walked lightly around the silk screen.
Gu Xiyan's jet-black green silk fell on the silver-red pillow, glowing with a faint halo, and her slender and white hand gently patted Brother Xuan who was breathing evenly, and her eyes were soft and gentle.
She saw Qi Maosheng come in and hurriedly made a silent movement.
Qi Maosheng's hands and feet became lighter and lighter.
He tiptoed to the side of the bed, looked down at Brother Tun's red face, and asked softly, "Why, you haven't fallen asleep yet!" ”
As soon as the words fell. Brother Jun suddenly opened his big round eyes.
"Hey!" Gu Xiyan let out a frustrated sigh, "He's good at everything, it's just that it's hard to fall asleep." ”
Gu Xiyan's words did not fall. As if to prove his mother's words, Brother Jun yelled at Qi Maosheng with a small mouth.
Qi Maosheng smiled and stretched his fingers to Brother Tun's clenched fist, and Brother Tun grabbed Qi Maosheng's fingers, and then pulled his head upward, looking like he was about to sit up.
Qi Mao was shocked and hurriedly said: "Xiyan, Xiyan, what is he going to do?" ”
Gu Xiyan pulled Brother Tun's chubby little finger off Qi Maosheng's finger and said with a smile: "Go and freshen up...... You keep messing with him. When he was happy, it was even more difficult for him to fall asleep. ”
Qi Maosheng touched the finger that had been grabbed by Brother Tun, and replied authentically: "Brother Tun's finger, soft ......"
Hearing someone speak, Brother Jun has begun to echo "ahhhh
Gu Xiyan hurriedly drove Qi Maosheng away, lay down again and slapped him to sleep. But no matter what Gu Xiyan did, Brother Jun just didn't sleep, but turned over and sat up, straight at Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan had no choice. I had to talk to him and play with the handbell.
Qi Maosheng freshened up and was stunned: "Why haven't you slept yet!" ”
Gu Xiyan smiled bitterly: "He doesn't sleep, what can I do!" Qi Maosheng went to bed and looked at Brother Tun with interest at first, but as Brother Tun became more and more energetic, Qi Maosheng couldn't help but whisper: "Xiyan, let him play with the grandmothers!" ”
Gu Xiyan looked at him with a smile.
Qi Maosheng coughed softly, avoiding Gu Xiyan's gaze.
Gu Xiyan called Mama Qin: "Hold Brother Jun to play, I have something to say with my master." ”
Mama Qin replied with a smile in her eyebrows. Then he hugged Brother Tun and went out.
Brother Tun's eyes widened. looked at Gu Xiyan in surprise, as if he didn't understand why he was having a good time. How could he be carried away from his mother's arms?
Gu Xiyan hesitated a little in his heart.
But Mama Qin's figure soon disappeared behind the screen.
Qi Maosheng stretched out his arm and pressed Gu Xiyan under him, and he bit Gu Xiyan's ear with some unsteady breath: "I don't think I ......" Before Gu Xiyan could answer, Qi Maosheng said emotionally, "I miss you ......"
The voice full of longing, like a feather, tickled Gu Xiyan's heart, and she hugged Qi Maosheng tightly and danced with his movements.
Jackets, profane clothes, belly pockets...... One by one, Gu Xiyan groaned, clinging to Qi Maosheng......
"Don't, you can't, Brother Jun will feed it again......"
Qi Maosheng gasped and let out an "oh" in frustration.
The warmth of the tight moxibustion wrapped around him hotly, giving him a breathless suffocating pleasure.
Qi Maosheng galloped indulgently......
Gu Xiyan struggled on his elbows.
"What's wrong?" Qi Maosheng gnawed on Xiyan Baisheng's ear beads and gasped roughly, "Isn't it uncomfortable?" ”
"No......" Gu Xiyan groaned, "I, I seem to have heard Brother Xuan's cry......"
"How so? Are there any grandmothers with you? ”
"He never ...... You always sleep with me at night......" Gu Xiyan frowned slightly.
Qi Maosheng kissed her forehead closely: "No, no......"
