"Uncle Lei Guo is already more than one hundred and sixteen years old, and the five elders of the Imperial Altar are just powerless children in front of him. ”

Qi Tian was surprised again, he suddenly realized that the war at the imperial level was really not what he had known in the past.

"What, scared again?" Princess Celestia laughed.

"Can you quit if you're scared? You know, I'm hated by the prince now, and I can't get out, but it's all because of you? By the way, my second sister suddenly came to me, was it arranged by you?"

It was expected that the prince would do something to him, after all, he had already caused harm to the prince's power, and now that the procurement government and the finance government have been around him, this will undoubtedly cut off the prince's two arms, and if he doesn't retaliate against himself, he will not be the prince.

"Yes. Princess Celestia admitted directly.

"Even if you confess, you've given me a big set! Let's talk about the benefits, how can you help me?"

Qi Tian took advantage of Qi Baishi's care for the eldest princess to himself. and used family affection to drag himself to the imperial capital, which was very dissatisfied.

"This palace can't give you any help now, the four departments under the jurisdiction of this palace are all departments with no real power, and the four princesses' legions, the only military force, have also been transferred to the northern border, and you also heard it in the court today. ”

"It's a pit, it's too pit. Qi Tian cried out.

He was now eager to rush directly behind the curtain, rudely remove the golden curtain from the eldest princess's face, and then be presumptuous...

"You and Hongu are now truly in the same boat. "Celestia is a little bit gloating.

Qi Tian finally knew the purpose of Princess Celestia looking for herself today.

The eldest princess just wants to tell herself that she can't get off the boat anymore, and helping her take the heir is the only way.

"Nothing else, right? Don't see you here in the future, it's not far from the palace, and the mansion is so luxurious, it's easy to be targeted. ”

"No, it won't. ”

"Why?"

"This mansion is the property of the crown prince, and it was rented by the main palace. ”

Qi Tian was speechless, and sure enough, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

"Someone will see you off at the door. ”

"Well, when will the floral tea be delivered?"

"This can is enough for you to drink for a while. ”

"It's not enough, I'm going to stop drinking water in the future and drink floral tea every day. ”

“...”

Qi Tian unceremoniously picked up the tea jar on the table and pushed the door out directly.

He now feels like he's being toyed with.

If he didn't come to the imperial capital, didn't make enemies with Liu Liheng, and didn't become the deputy director of the procurement office, he wouldn't offend the prince, let alone fall into the war for the heir.

Now even if he wants to leave, it's too late, it's really a wrong step, a wrong step, and now he can only make a mistake.

When the palace maid outside the door sent the black carriage in the sky, she returned to the lake hut.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Celestia, he's gone. ”

"Hmm. ”

"He took the jar of your carefully blended floral tea!"

"Well, that pot of tea was meant to be made for him. ”

"Ah, that pot of tea took His Highness a month's time, there are several spices in it, and there is crescent tea, even His Highness himself is reluctant to drink it!"

"If a jar of tea can be changed to a country, it is okay not to drink this tea. Princess Celestia looked at the sky outside, "Fluttershy, inform Saucer that Hongu is going back to the palace. ”

"Your Highness, Fluttershy is going now. ”

-------

Qi Tian sat in the black carriage, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and he felt the urge to hit the wall.

When the carriage stopped at the gate of the mansion, as soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw several old acquaintances chatting at the gate of the mansion.

"Huh, Lord Wang, Lord Ma, Lord Huang, Lord Li, why are you here?" Qi Tian said in surprise.

I saw Wang Shouren, Ma Chengwei, Huang Youcai, and Li Tongwei standing in the front hall of their mansion, and the servants behind everyone were still holding gifts in their hands.

"Hmm, Master Qi, you're really fine!" Li Tongwei said in surprise.

Huang Youcai was also surprised, "Son-in-law, are you really okay? Could it be that Lord Feiqi didn't let those soldiers really beat you? But it's not right, the soldiers in the palace belong to the guards, and they are under the control of Xie Jin, and they will never show mercy to your subordinates." ”

At this time, Wang Shouren and the others all knew that Huang Youcai had married Huang Xiaoxue to Qi Tian.

"I heard that your eldest brother Qi Zaiqing was sent to the Imperial Doctor Pavilion after only twenty strokes!" Ma Chengwei was also surprised.

Only Wang Shouren stood aside with a smile and did not speak.

"Okay, don't make fun of me, it's not early, you haven't eaten, right?" Qi Tian smiled, "Today I'm Dong, please go to the most famous coquettish ramen in the capital to eat!"

So, the five of them drove directly to the 'Jiao Mei Ramen' in the wind and fire of Qi Tian.

"Brother Qi. Li Tongwei suddenly looked at Qi Tian.

"Huh, what's the matter?"

"Can this Fenghuo also customize one for my brother?

Huang Youcai's eyes lit up, he had already seen the wind and fire, but he was embarrassed to speak, now that Li Tongwei spoke first, he was not embarrassed, "Son-in-law, you have to bring me one too, how is this car made, it is stable and fast, and it is really comfortable to sit up." ”

"Don't worry, one person, one person, in a few days, the old buddies will be sent to the house. Qi Tian's face was a little depressed, "In a while, I still have something to ask you!"

Several people glanced at each other, in fact, several people had already seen the distress on Qi Tian's face, and now Qi Tian said this, which also confirmed their conjecture.

When the wind and fire stopped in front of the 'Jiao Mei Ramen', the crowd in line was still like a long line.

After Wang Shouren and several high-ranking officials came down from the wind and fire, several sharp-eyed ordinary people immediately came out of these high-ranking officials, so they discussed in surprise: "Wow, even the Minister of Finance, Lord Huang, has come to the 'charming noodle restaurant'!"

"This coquettish ramen is really delicious, you see, there is also Lord Li and Lord Qi from the Purchasing Mansion!"

"Is that Lord Wang and Master Ma?"

.........

Just when Qi Tian and a few people inadvertently, they once again played a loud advertisement for the coquettish noodle restaurant!

Qi Tian and a few people sat in the small courtyard of the back kitchen to eat.

It was the first time for Huang Youcai and Li Tongwei to eat in such a humble place, but I have to say that the coquettish ramen and lo-mei are really delicious.

"Son-in-law, tell the proprietress that I funded the opening of a branch, this ramen is really delicious, and this marinated tofu, how to make it, soft and tender. "Huang Youcai was sweating profusely when he ate, and he liked it very much.

Wang Shouren was also full of praise, "Master Qi, after retiring in a few years, you will also open a noodle restaurant in Yunhai City, you have to tell the old man the recipe!"

Qi Tian smiled "haha", they felt that the ramen was delicious, and they were very proud, and Li Jiaomei was also smiling like a flower, looking at Qi Tian with a happy face, which Qi Tian brought her.

When everyone was full, Wang Shouren picked his teeth and asked, "Lord Qi, what happened after going down today?"

Huang Youcai and a few people also looked at it.

Qi Tian sighed and told them the original content of the conversation with the eldest princess.

The few people sitting here are all very trusted by him, and there is nothing that they can't let them know, and now they are really on their side, opposing the prince.

"I don't know Uncle Lei, but I know a lot about Emperor Cree, he is indeed a very powerful tiger general, he seems to be not a human, but a natural god of war, as long as he participates in the war, victory must belong to the Lion Empire. Captain Ma Chengwei looked a little frightened, as if the scene of Emperor Cree the Great had fought echoed in his mind.

Qi Tian looked at Ma Chengwei, it was the first time he saw horror in Ma Chengwei's eyes, in the past, Ma Chengwei had always given people a feeling of courage and fearlessness.

"It seems that Emperor Nu Han released Emperor Kereh the Great, and he really hated you to the core. Wang Shouren looked at Qi Tian.

"There is also the eldest princess who said that it is indeed possible that the crown prince will unite the Canghai Empire and the Lion Empire after ascending the throne, and there is a high chance. The Canghai Empire is an island country, the land is composed of hundreds of islands, materials are very scarce, there is almost no agricultural planting and industrial production in the country, and the empire has no taxes, but their navy is very strong, known as the first in the Xuangu Continent, and the financial revenue is basically based on merchant ships to buy road money and robbery, if the prince is willing to give them land or a large sum of money, they will definitely be happy to attack Yunhai City from the sea. Huang Youcai analyzed.

Qi Tian nodded, accepting this fact.

Suddenly, Wang Shouren's eyes showed some doubts, "Uncle Lei Guo is really still alive?" The old man heard that he was over 100 years old when he was young. ”

Qi Tian nodded, "Since the eldest princess said so, eighty percent is true." ”

"The old man has been in Yunhai City in the past, and he doesn't know much about Uncle Lei's information. Wang Shouren said.

Huang Youcai said at this time: "Uncle Lei's real name is Lei Zhenshan, he is a very legendary figure, his ancestors have always been high-ranking officials in the empire, and his father was a former prime minister, but in his generation, he did not enter the court, but instead devoted himself to cultivation, wanting to become a peerless master of martial arts."

He was indeed a cultivation wizard, and before the age of forty, he defeated all the martial arts masters in the empire, and later he got a glimpse of the way of heaven and even created a set of thunder recipes by himself. It is said that this set of thunder tricks can attract the power of heavenly thunder and turn everything into ashes, and in the following decades, he defeated all the martial arts masters in the mainland, which can be called invincible.

It's just that I don't know why, decades ago, when the emperor had just ascended the throne, he actually took the initiative to run to the palace and asked the emperor to allow him to enter the imperial altar, and in return, he could promise the emperor three conditions.

Since then, he has appeared at the prince's wedding, and there has been no news of him since, and I learned about these things because I grew up in the imperial capital and was the chancellor of the exchequer, and if he came forward to help the prince, it would be very disadvantageous to us. ”

Qi Tian's face became more and more ugly, he didn't expect that Uncle Lei Guo would be so powerful, isn't this an invincible existence!

Huang Youcai sighed and comforted him: "Even if Uncle Lei wants to help the prince, he can't get involved in earthly disputes, this is the rule of martial arts. ”

Although Li Tongwei is one of the Jiuqing, he doesn't know much about Uncle Lei, Emperor Keree, and the Canghai Empire, so he understands the engineering and procurement bidding in the empire, so he can only continue to drink small wine, eat lo-mei, and listen to the big guys.

Wang Shouren pondered for a while, and said in a firm tone: "Lord Qi, it seems that you really have only one way in front of you, to help the eldest princess win the heir and make her the first female emperor of the Xuangu Continent." ”

Huang Youcai also nodded in agreement.

"Although I only know how to fight, I can also see that the eldest princess really wants to do something and bring the Sunny Empire out of the situation of a militarily weak country. Ma Cheng said angrily.

Qi Tian looked up to the sky and sighed, feeling a little helpless in his heart.

"Lord Qi, sigh what, originally you were also here to help the eldest princess seize the land. Wang Shouren said.

Huang Youcai "hehe" Yile, "Lord Wang, Tian'er sighed because she was led by the nose by the eldest princess." After all, taking the initiative to do it and being led to do it are completely different concepts. ”

Wang Shouren smiled, "That's the same." ”

"Okay, don't persuade me, how to help the eldest princess win the throne next, is there any way for the old buddy?" Qi Tian asked.

Several people pondered for a while, looked at each other, and all fell silent.

To help the eldest princess win the heir, it is inevitable to fight with the prince endlessly, that is to say, only by completely killing the prince can the eldest princess really ascend to the throne of God safely.

It's just that the crown prince has been in power for many years, and the foundation of the DPRK and China is solid, and every official is intertwined.

Even Huang Youcai didn't dare to say that if he openly worked against the prince, how many people in the Finance Mansion would still be able to support him, after all, there was still a deputy director in the Finance Mansion, and there were several layers of officials below the deputy director.

After a long time, Qi Tian suddenly asked: "Brothers, do you have any corruption on weekdays? Let's tell the truth today, but don't say that brothers don't miss the old love when you accidentally hurt your brothers in the future." ”

"The old man will never be, I think the old man didn't have such a rich city in Yunhai City back then, and he won't do it now. Wang Shouren took the lead in expressing his position.

"I don't know anything else, I know how to fight. Captain Ma Cheng also expressed his position.

Huang Youcai groaned slightly, "Although there are many people who ask me to do things, the money has been re-credited to the treasury in another way, and I have an account to check." ”

In the end, everyone looked at Li Tongwei, who had not spoken.

You must know that the procurement government is the hardest hit area of corruption, and all the procurement and projects of the imperial court are tendered from him.

Li Tongwei looked at everyone's eyes and shook his head helplessly, "I want to, but I haven't had a chance all these years, I've only lived up to my name for a few days, and I haven't had time to receive a gift yet!"

Qi Tian smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, I can rest assured and boldly let it go." ”

Wang Shouren was stunned for a moment, "Could it be that you want..."

Huang Youcai also guessed something, and his expression became solemn.

They all knew that once Qi Tian took that step, the officialdom of the entire imperial capital city would usher in a violent storm, and the entire power structure would collapse and reshuffle.
