Chapter Twenty-Six: White Orchids
When Kai heard Kui say this, he didn't ask anything more.
They played for a while, and when Kai saw a few pots of white orchids, he walked over and looked at them carefully.
Seeing Qi like this, Kui said with a smile: "Kai, if you like it, I can give you a few pots." ”
Qi hurriedly shook his head and said, "How did this happen?" This is a flower that you have worked so hard to cultivate, how can I take it easily? ”
Hearing Qi's words, Kuihaha laughed and said to Qi, "What is this?" You can just take them, as long as you don't spoil them, I'm satisfied. ”
Qi respectfully saluted Kui and said, "It's disrespectful to be so small." ”
Kuihaha asked him to get up, and then said to him: "Their soil has my Mu Clan's secret method, which can grow undefeated, even if you bring it back, there is no problem." ”
Kai thanked him again, then played for a while before returning to the hall.
At this time, Baiqing had already arrived, and when Baiqing saw Qi, he still had some doubts in his heart, not knowing who this man in sackcloth was?
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Qidu Order of Taoze City." Kui looked at their puzzled eyes, so he introduced, and the group of people hurriedly saluted, and Qi also returned the salute.
When he returned the salute, he noticed that one of the guards was staring at him. He thought about it carefully, and finally remembered that this guard seemed to have seen it in the inn last time.
Kai nodded and smiled at him, and the guard quickly lowered his head.
At the banquet, Kui talked endlessly again, praising Qi as a virtuous gentleman, and he would definitely go to the national capital to serve as an official and assist the lord of the country in the future.
Qi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and then he complimented Kui again, and the Baiqing around him also began to compliment, and the entire hall suddenly became happy.
waited for Kui to talk for an hour before ordering his subordinates to serve the food.
After the food came up, Kui looked at Qi Bubu's chopsticks and said suspiciously, "Kai, what's wrong, isn't it suitable for your appetite?" ”
Qi hurriedly said: "Thank you for your hospitality, these are all very good, but I am keeping filial piety for the former city lord, and I will not be fishy for three years." ”
Kui Da admired and said: "What a gentleman, it was my rudeness, I immediately let people change." ”
Kai asked the servant to come over, and said something to his mouth, and then said to the servant, "There is work." ”
The servant hurriedly said that he did not dare, so he retreated.
After waiting for a while, the servant gave Qi Chang three kinds of wild vegetables and a bowl of porridge, which made Bai Qing who was present admire, and it was even more difficult to let them eat without meat.
When the banquet was over, Qi rested for one night, and the next day he accompanied Kui to visit Razor City, Qi praised him again, and heard that Kui was full of good feelings for Qi, thinking that he was his confidant friend and a gentleman.
Kai stayed in Razor City for three days and then went back.
When he left, Kui was reluctant, and gave Qi a copy of the flower book he wrote, and Qi thanked him again, and agreed to come here next time when he had time.
When Qi returned to Taoze City, it was already the seventh day.
Hearing that Qi had returned, Bai Lan immediately asked the servant to take him to see Qi, and when she saw Qi, Bai Lan said unhappily: "Lord of the city, you are finally willing to come back." ”
"Mrs. Qiyu Ao, the little one is back, madam, please take a look." As he spoke, he asked the servant to carry up the three pots of white orchids.
Looking at Bai Lanhua, Bai Lan's eyes instantly moistened, she walked to Bai Lan's side, took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "I haven't seen Bai Lan for almost a year, thank you." ”
"Madame doesn't need to say thank you, this is what Kai should do, as long as Madame is happy, Kai will be satisfied."
After Qi finished speaking, Bai Lan's body trembled, and she whispered, "Qi, is this your true word?" ”
Kai didn't answer, he still knelt there, Bai Lan looked at Bai Lanhua, and after a while, he said to Qi: "Yesterday the witch doctor came and said that my body is healed, and I am ready to leave." ”
"Really? Well, tomorrow I will have someone send Madame to Yuhou. ”
Bai Lan nodded, returned to the room, and Qi sent Bai Lan to the room.
Qi came to Yuan Ning and asked him how his recent government affairs were.
Yuan Ning told them one by one, but there was nothing special about it, but more than a dozen refugees came from Pingyang, and the Jiuqian City that Cang did of course broke the embankment again.
"Alas, when will this monstrous flood be a head, it is said that the vicinity of Mengmen has been turned into a swamp for thousands of miles, and a state is about to be flooded."
"I heard in Lei Ze City, when Emperor Yao was touring the east, there were immortals who offered pictures, saying that to cure the flood, it was necessary to Shun grass, I heard that the name of Yu Hou Shun, presumably after Yu Hou ascended the throne, this flood will recede."
Hearing Qi's words, Yuan Ning looked around and whispered to Qi: "Qi, I saw that the book said that the sage reigned, the wind and rain were smooth, the evil retreated, and the beasts returned to the mountain, and since Emperor Yao ascended the throne, there were first ten days together, and then there were floods, fierce beasts came out frequently, and each of the twelve countries has ten fierce beasts, not to mention overseas countries." ”
"Presumptuous, this is a variable in the way of heaven, it is not that Di Yao is not virtuous, he is guilty of heaven, if Di Yao has no way, how can it be ten rui a day, the phoenix comes to the court, the unicorn travels to the suburbs, the grass is born, the crow turns white, the dragon sees the swamp, the fan cooks, the hay turns into grass, the bird flies into the sky, the divine tree blooms, and the nectar is moist."
Seeing Qi Yizheng accusing himself with words, Yuan Ning panicked, knelt on the ground and said, "It's a subordinate gaffe, please forgive me." ”
Qi also felt that his tone was too harsh, so he hurriedly helped Yuan Ning up, and said to Yuan Ning: "Yuan Ning, I lost my temper just now, but as a subordinate, I can't be arrogant to the monarch, not to mention that such virtue is a loss, if you meet a person who is unreasonable, there will be a disaster of killing." ”
"I see, I'll pay attention to it later."
Kai nodded, and then asked Yuan Ning to properly handle those refugees and try to make the best use of them. If they are citizens, they will give them some farming tools, and give them some good land, so that they can cultivate it.
"My lord, are you going to travel far away again?"
Qi nodded, and said to Yuan Ning: "I heard that Yu Hou has Shengde, three years in Chengdu, I want to go and see in person, after I leave, all the refugees will be resettled, they have no home, they must be rescued, whether they can survive depends on them, the so-called do their best to obey the destiny of heaven." ”
"My lord, my subordinates know." Qi nodded, and then before leaving, he feasted Bai Qing and told them that he was going to see Yu Hou.
Bai Qing showed a look of understanding, now everyone thinks that Marquis Yu is going to become the emperor, and if Qi Go is summoned by Marquis Yu, it will also be good for them.
Everyone wished Kai a smooth trip, and Kai began to arrange the affairs of the city.
When he went to rest, Qi thought in his heart, how should he face Yu Hou? If you are true to yourself, you will inevitably expose yourself. But Kai soon had an idea.
