Chapter 341: Pig Killing Bureau
People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden.
Well, Li Kui decided not to pretend, pretending to be a grandson, and thought he was a bully. Simply, he had a showdown, and if he wanted to deal with him, he had to wait for Li Kui's revenge. Anyway, he pretended to be stunned, and it can be said that he acted in his true colors.
Li Kui is comfortable doing this, but some people are very uncomfortable.
Liu Qingjing, who is already the highest-ranking concubine, is like this, a virtuous concubine, if there is another edict, she will be a concubine.
Of course, the concubine may not necessarily have it.
And the concubine is not Liu Qingjing's goal, she has a big heart and wants to be the queen and become the real master of the Sixth Palace. Even because of the support of Feng Shining, the eunuch in the palace, she didn't look like she was just favored by Zhao Xu, and her status in the palace was embarrassing. But don't forget that the abolition of the queen is always the most difficult thing for the emperor, even more difficult than changing the law.
What's even worse is that in terms of the current status of the Liu family, don't look at it as a master, ranking among the best, but the officials who have taken refuge in the Liu family are all unpopular goods.
Li Kui can be said to be the most important bargaining chip for the Liu family to break into the civilian-official cluster.
But the problem is that the chips don't have the consciousness of being chips at all, and they are picky.
When the news reached the palace, Liu Qingjing's anger towards Li Kui was no less than her resentment towards Empress Meng.
The betrayal of the minions is even more unacceptable than the enemy's counterattack. What made her even more angry was that Li Kui didn't know what method to use, and he actually confused Zhao Xu. So much so that he rarely praised Zhao Xu, and he did not hesitate to praise Li Kui.
"Tong Guan, go to my father's mansion immediately, call Li Kui, reprimand him well, and let him understand that the Li family is rich and noble, and without my Liu family, he is nothing!"
Tong Guan secretly complained, facing an unreasonable woman, he couldn't understand where Liu Qingjing's anger came from?
Is it Li Kui's rebellion?
It's not a rebellion at all. He simply showed his displeasure with the threat. And Tong Guan also understood Li Kui's intentions, it was okay to help cooperate, but there was no threat.
"Niangniang, do you want to let the master meet and talk about it later?"
"Isn't my word good? Everyone in the palace listens to that woman, and even you think she is the master of the six palaces? β
What else could Tong Guan say, so he had to leave the palace in a gloomy manner.
Facing Li Kui, he was not sure at all. Originally, Tong Guan felt that Li Kui should have changed a lot in the past two years of studying under Su Shimen, at least he knew how to make a big plan if he couldn't bear it, right?
Unexpectedly, after being wronged twice, he showed up. Li Kui was still more than two years ago, it was the Li Kui that Tong Guan met in Linyi City, and his temperament has not changed at all. Tong Guan had to think that maybe their personalities had changed and their status had become more prominent, which led to their tempers getting bigger and bigger?
This guy is really fucked up, threatening the eunuch at the gate of the palace, or is it a eunuch with a lot of status in the palace? Does Li Kui really not want to be an official?
As for Zhao Xu's praise of Li Kui, Tong Guan wanted to know the secret, was he just doing what he liked?
It's a pity that Han Deqin didn't listen to Concubine Xian, and there were few eunuchs present at the time, so he couldn't get any useful news at all.
Health, the importance of health to an emperor, even more than power, obsessed the emperor.
Zhao Xu is like this, he needs a strong physique, and for this goal, he can even be infamous as a playful and even faint king. Even if he is a faint monarch, he is still the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, but if he is a sick emperor, he will give up the throne that he has endured anytime and anywhere to those clan brothers who want to die.
But in the Great Song Dynasty, the health through exercise is not widely accepted.
Doctors say that there is a lack of this, lack of that, and Taoists say that congenital deficiency is ......
Instead, it ignores that people can obtain a relatively healthy body through acquired efforts.
Right Clothes Lane, Huang's house.
Tong Guan was embarrassed to face Li Kui, who was sneering at him, and didn't know where to speak. On the contrary, Li Kui sneered: "You should have come to Xingshi to ask about the crime, why didn't you speak?" β
"This ...... The noble man was a little puzzled by his brother's excesses, so he sent our family to ask? β
"Didn't you come to ask the master about the sin?"
"How could it be, the elder brother helped the Liu family wholeheartedly, how could the Liu family be dissatisfied with the elder brother?" Tong Guan spoke with a look of awe, as if he was quite jealous of Li Kui.
Facing Li Kui, who was very angry, Tong Guan didn't dare to stand at all, he was one of the few people who felt Li Kui's fiery temperament with his own eyes, if this guy could listen to persuasion, the sun would be able to hit the west.
It's a pity that after Li Kui was threatened twice for no reason, his whole person seemed to have a clear mind, forbearance, and grovel, which were not in line with his habits at all. Besides, he didn't think about the consequences. Of course, it's thinking after impulse. What will the emperor think of him?
Impulsive people, good control.
Is this still an advantage?
Thinking of this benefit, Li Kui decided to let himself go. The whole person has been sublimated, and he can act recklessly, who wants to live humbly like a mouse?
As for the backyard, how's that?
Li Kui didn't care at all. Is it possible for him to rely on the Liu family to be the prime minister?
No.
Give a small broken official, to be honest, Li Kui really doesn't really care.
Tong Guan faced Li Kui's anger and knew it. Li Kui did it on purpose for others to see, and as for the purpose, he couldn't guess it in a short time. But it can be seen that Li Kui is definitely not a good material for making dog legs, this product is a powder keg, maybe it will suddenly explode that day.
To no avail of communication with Li Kui, Tong Guan could only go to Liu's Mansion to give Liu Baosheng a wake-up call. As for what Liu Baosheng will do, anyway, it is a matter of their father and daughter, Tong Guan is a eunuch who serves people, and he has no problem. Compared with other eunuchs in the palace, Tong Guan did not like to be in the palace, and he did not like to serve people.
His belief in life is to become a big man like Li Xian, commanding thousands of troops. is also quite helpless about the flies in the court.
Compared with Liu Qingjing's anger, Liu Baosheng was very restrained. After he knew the reason, he didn't think about his daughter's thoughts at all, but pondered that he should invite Li Kui to the mansion for a meal and contact his feelings.
The background of the Liu family is almost a joke in the capital, and Liu Baosheng knows how rare it is to have a capable and tough son-in-law. This is a figure who can support the faΓ§ade of the Liu family, and ordinary civil officials and jinshi can't do it like Li Kui at all. The Jinshi election officer is just a petty official of the eighth or ninth grade, how many years can he get ahead?
Even if it is the champion, Bangyan, Tanhua and other tripod armor, it will take ten years to start to show its glory.
The son-in-law under the list is very attractive to other generals, but it is not attractive to Liu Baosheng at all. He needs a strong person who can resist one side when he uses it to support the portal that the Liu family has managed to support.
At Li Kui's age, there is no one who can compare with Li Kui; has Li Kui's belly full of flowers, but he can kill decisive talents, and there is no one; There is no young talent who can judge the direction of the situation and understand the overall situation than Li Kui.
This is the reason why Liu Baosheng has never changed his original intention towards Li Kui. As for temper, as long as the fifth child marries, Li Kui does not beat his daughter-in-law, it is not a matter for Liu Baosheng at all. Li Kui did something stupid, but the emperor didn't care about it, so it wasn't a foolish thing.
He is a relative, and if he marries a family, it will cause dissatisfaction among the entire court. So, the Cai family, he wouldn't think about it at all.
The three sons-in-law of the Liu family outside the palace can only make the old Liu family embarrassed, let alone support the portal. Li Kui's ability is enough and domineering enough, if Li Kui continues to maintain this awe-inspiring strength accumulation in the next few years, it will be the most important support of the Liu family.
Although the imperial power is very good, if it is really completely dependent on the imperial power, if it really loses the heavenly favor that day, it will be when the Liu family is destroyed.
Tong Guan was helpless, and said in his heart: "Go back to the palace and continue to coax people!" The days in this palace are too grinding, and I don't know what the day is. β
Following.
Li Kui and the others were ready, and before going out, Li Kui also instructed Li Yun: "Li Yun, most of the time today is to fight, bring some money, someone mentioned before that I said don't let Your Majesty indulge in it, I think it's very necessary." β
Li Kui didn't want to be the emperor's mahjong partner, and played mahjong with the emperor all day long.
Li Yunhu said suspiciously: "If you don't let Your Majesty win money, will your Majesty be unhappy?" β
didn't wait for Li Kui to speak, but Fan Chong greatly appreciated Li Kui's approach, and vigorously proclaimed: "Li Yun, don't think too much, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is a benevolent gentleman, don't worry about the emperor holding a grudge because of losing money." Although he was ashamed to teach His Majesty this skill, he thought that he had done the duty of a courtier. β
"Am I a flatterer?" Li Yun called himself Qu Dao, and then asked Li Kui: "But second brother, how much money is it good for the emperor to lose?" You can't use the pig killing bureau to your majesty, it's too disrespectful. β
"Pig Killing Bureau?" Fan Chong was very curious, mahjong still had such esoteric theories and schemes, and shamelessly asked: "Why have you never heard of it?" β
"You haven't heard of it, but you've seen it?" Li Yun struck.
Fan Chong's face was a little dark, and he scolded Li Kui in his heart: These bastards actually used such a vulgar scam to harm Ben Gongzi, wait and see.
It is still the old place, in the warm pavilion near the vertical arch hall.
When you go out, you can look at the three major halls in the palace from afar.
The emperor didn't let people wait long, and came early.
Just like playing cards outside, feel the direction of the wind.
Reserve a seat.
It's just that the emperor doesn't participate, he is the emperor, so he naturally has to sit in the north and face south.
It's just that Fan Chong magically touched the emperor's hand, Li Kui is the emperor's upper family, and his opponent has become Li Yun.
Kill the pig, kill the pig.
Fan Chong's mind was full of these bullshit things, and at the beginning of the game, he realized that he was the butcher of this game.
For a while, Fan Chong's whole person became excited, and he kept praying in his heart: "Your Majesty, our chips are not big, support it for a while." When the minister's gambling debts are repaid, I must go back and think about your old man's good. β
"Eat!"
"Bump!"
"Hu!"
Zhao Xu didn't play a few games, and he felt that the situation seemed to be very unfavorable for him. Fan Chong, who was sitting at the bottom of him, seemed to be aiming at him, specifically winning his money, and he was happy to do it.
finally touched a big deck, but was destroyed by Fan Chong.
Zhao Xu is so angry!
I only found out that mahjong is a good thing yesterday, and only a day later, he seems to have traces of being educated.
In just one hour, Zhao Xu lost more than 100 times, and Fan Chong became the biggest winner.
Two hours later, Zhao Xu couldn't bear it anymore, pushed the cards, and said angrily: "Don't play!" β
"Your Majesty, will you rest today? Do you still need to be accompanied by ministers tomorrow? Fan Chong won a bunch of Jiaozi, smiling like a spring flower in spring, almost writhing in the wind, showing that he was extraordinarily enchanting. Jiaozi is not as real as real money, but it can still be exchanged for real money in the trading house, but it is just a bit of a fire.
Not only did he win back the money he lost to Li Kui and others, but he also had a lot left, which was completely able to support him until the end of the imperial examination.
Zhao Xu's face changed for a while, speaking of which, playing mahjong is still quite happy, if he hadn't been losing, it would have been true. Growing up, he didn't have such an easy moment. But thinking of Fan Chong's hideous face, he roared beside him: "Hu! β
Zhao Xu felt like a wronged man.
After struggling for a while, Zhao Xu said leisurely: "I learned this play in order to have fun with the people, and I have learned it today, and I don't need Zhu Aiqing to accompany me tomorrow." β
The reluctance in Fan Chong's eyes seemed to be looking at Zhao Xu as if he was seeing a cornucopia that could be taken at any time, getting farther and farther away from him.
Li Kui also breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and bowed to retire: "The grass people retire!" β
"Li Aiqing, tell Gao Yu to accompany him tomorrow." Before leaving, the emperor deliberately told Li Kui such news.
If the emperor wants to see the people, he will definitely not be so casual, Zhao Xu's meaning could not be simpler, that is, let Li Kui buy people's hearts and not let Li Kui work in vain. It can be seen that the emperor's heart is still very delicate, and it can be seen from this incident that Zhao Xu's character is generous.
After returning to his residence, Li Kui did not say anything to Gao Yuming.
After the eunuchs in the palace came, he realized that his good brother Li Kui was actually burdened with the infamy of bewitching the emperor and strongly recommended him to teach Keju for the emperor.
This is equivalent to sending Gao Yu to the emperor, if you can get the emperor's favor, wouldn't it be a step to the sky?
Of course, how to obtain the emperor's favor also requires Gao Yu to rely on his own ability. For this kindness, Gao Yu feels that he will not be able to repay it in this life.
Poof, kneeling in front of Li Kui, but unfortunately, Li Kui didn't let him at all, he stretched out his hand and stopped Gao Yu's kneeling posture: "The man has gold under his knees, kneel to the sky and kneel to his parents, you and I are brothers, why do you have to do this big gift?" β
Gao Yu's face turned red, but he couldn't resist Li Kui. So he knelt down beside Li Kui, bowed down and said: "The parents of those who gave birth to me, the bachelors who raised me, and the one who gave me wealth and nobility are your outstanding people." I am a tall girl, my parents died, I have been in a mess for many years, I can't study, I can't practice martial arts, if I don't have this opportunity, I'm just a helper in this life. In the future, people will see me do things at a high level, but where there is a trace of sorry for my brother, heaven and earth will be destroyed! β
On the contrary, Li Yun said indignantly on the side: "Second brother, I can see it, I still have to hold together with my brothers." Look at Fan Chong, with money, he immediately moved out of the master's house as if he was hiding from the epidemic, treating us as traitors and avoiding him. β
Listening to Gao Yu's loyalty, Li Kui was quite calm, and he always felt a little indebted to Gao Yu.
Think about it, the king of Beijing football, who is regarded as the hope of the Chinese football world for 800 years, even if there is no Zhao Xu, he has another chance. Now let the king of the ball go out early, I don't know if it's good or bad.
