It's not easy to be a scholar through Liaozhai

Early in the morning of the second day, just as Li Qing woke up, the eunuch came to the palace to announce the decree, and Xuan Liqing entered the palace immediately.Li Qing was helpless, logically speaking, with the elixir he left behind, the princess would not be in any danger for the time being, at most she just looked bad, but as long as she took the health pills on time, wouldn't she be in danger? What could be dangerous.

But even though he was a little surprised why he called him into the palace in such a hurry, Li Qing quickly changed his clothes and entered the palace.

But after entering the palace, Li Qing soon discovered that the eunuch leading the way was not going to Lama Temple, because the route was wrong, Li Qing frowned.

"Elder-in-law, this is not the way to Lama Temple." Li Qing stopped in his tracks, because he was within the scope of the harem any further, and he was a big man, so even if he didn't like women, he still wanted to avoid suspicion.

"Today is called by the Empress Dowager, so naturally I am going to Shou'an Palace?" The little eunuch who led the way replied with a smile.

It was only then that Li Qing realized why the father-in-law he knew acquainted a few days ago was not the one who came to proclaim the decree, but he also wanted to see what the empress dowager was doing, so he obediently went to Shouan Palace with the little eunuch.

"Lord Li, the gazebo outside the empress is waiting for you, please come with me." The one who spoke to Li Qing was the capable aunt next to the queen mother, surnamed Li, who looked only in her thirties.

Li Qing smiled slightly and nodded, and went with the aunt to the gazebo in the garden of Shouan Palace. The Empress Dowager was sitting on a chair in the gazebo, sipping tea leisurely.

Li Qing bowed and bowed to the queen mother, who nodded her head, Li Qing is now a rank one, so it is not considered rude.

"The Ai family called you here today because they want to ask you something in private." The Queen Mother gestured for Li Qing to sit down.

Ever since the Queen Mother saw this Li Qing yesterday, she finally understood why her daughter wanted to marry this young man. It was because this man was too handsome, and she felt a tremor in her heart.

What's more, this person can save her daughter's life, so the queen mother wants to promote Qinghe's marriage with him even more.

With a smile on his face, Li Qing said: "My lady, please tell me." He had a good impression of this empress dowager, probably because of the strong spirit of meritorious deeds in this empress dowager. Many good things have passed many people.

Seeing Li Qing's bright smile, the Empress Dowager slightly moved her eyes away, and said gently: "Are you really unwilling to marry Qinghe?"

Li Qing nodded with a smile, "I don't have that fate with the princess, I already have someone I love."

"If so, what if the Ai family promised to let that person be a concubine?" The queen mother asked, she also knew that this young man would always pay too much attention to these love affairs, but a smart person would always choose the right one. .

"The Ai family can promise you that even if you marry Qinghe, you can still participate in politics, and it will never affect your future." The Queen Mother's promise is not just that Li Qing can participate in politics, but also his bright future.

Li Qing shook his head with a smile, "Empress Dowager, there is no need to mention this matter, I will treat the princess with all my heart, and in a few days, the herbs I have carefully cultivated will mature, and the treatment can be started at that time, although I It can't completely cure the princess' heart disease, but as long as there is that herb, I can guarantee that the princess can live until the end of her life."

"Is what you said true?" The Queen Mother asked after hearing the words.In fact, the reason why the queen mother hopes to marry Qinghe to Li Qing is because she feels sorry for her daughter's short lifespan, so she wants to fulfill her dying wish, but now that she knows that Li Qing has a way to cure Qinghe's illness, the queen mother Naturally, Princess Qinghe's marriage will be reconsidered.

Li Qing nodded, "Yes, but it will take some time, but as long as the princess takes the medicine on time, she will be safe for at least three years."

The queen mother nodded, "The Ai family knows, you can step back."

Li Qing stood up and saluted the Queen Mother respectfully, then left directly.

Just as Li Qing arrived home, the servants of the Li family came over and sent a post saying that Li Qing was invited to visit the house.Li Qing read the post, said he understood, and then went back to the study.

The time on the post was this afternoon, so he was not in a hurry to go there. Li Qing went into the study and searched for a long time but didn't see A Huang. In fact, he hadn't seen A Huang since yesterday, but at that time he thought that A Huang returned I went to rest in the house, so I didn't pay much attention to it. It's just that I didn't see Ah Huang coming to my side today, so I thought it was a little strange. What danger is right.

"Uncle Li, have you seen Ah Huang?" Another reason why Li Qing was not in a hurry was that he had signed a master-servant contract with Ah Huang, so he would be able to sense if Ah Huang really encountered any danger.

"No, Ah Huang met something on the way yesterday and ran down. The old slave has already sent someone to look for it." Uncle Li said indifferently, it was just a cat. Just go buy one.

Li Qing frowned, and said, "Someone find it for me carefully, and whoever finds it will reward you with 50 taels of silver." Li Qing was still a little worried, but Ah Huang had a lot of talisman papers on him, so there was no need for it. Too worried.But after all, Ah Huang is a goblin who hasn't transformed into a human form yet, so it's better to find it earlier, otherwise, if you meet a Taoist priest who catches a goblin or other goblins, you might just kill him.

"Hey, the old slave knows, and will give orders." Uncle Li nodded and said.

"Well, go prepare the carriage to Li's Mansion, and call me when it's almost time." After speaking, Li Qing went back to the study to read.

"Then, young master, do you still need to prepare a gift for the wife and miss of the Li family?" Uncle Li asked.

"You look at it and prepare it, ah, wait a moment." Li Qing thought for a while, went to the box in the study and took a string of high-quality black pearl bracelets, "add this to the gift for Miss Li .”

Uncle Li nodded, "But young master, you and Miss Li..." Uncle Li said hesitantly.

Li Qing smiled, "Take her as my younger sister."

"This old slave knows." Uncle Li took the box from Li Qing's hand and retreated respectfully.

Randomly took a book from the bookshelf, and took it as Zhuangzi's Happy Journey. I didn't read much, and I sat on the chair and flipped through it page after page.

"Master, master." Li Qing put down the book, looked down, and it really was Ah Huang, but it looked a bit embarrassed now, the hair on its body was a little bit shaggy, and there was a lot of mud on the hair.

"How did you do it? It looks really messy." Li Qing hit An Huang's body with a cleansing technique, and the stains on A Huang's body disappeared immediately.

"Master, someone has avenged my revenge!" Ah Huang jumped onto the table, "Do you know what I saw?"

Li Qing looked at Ah Huang with a smile, "What did you see?"

"Painted skin, there is a painted skin in that person's house." Ah Huang said fiercely, "I saw it with my own eyes."

Ah Huang originally saw the person who had abused him in the carriage and wanted to take revenge on the past. Of course, it would at most put a few mice in that person's house, and it would not hurt anyone. After all, it has been found now. If you have lost your master, you can't cause trouble for your master.

But when it arrived at the man's house, it found that there was a woman in the house that had never had a mistress, and she was a very, very beautiful woman.

Ah Huang is a demon, so he could tell that the man was a demon at the first glance, and he could find such a beautiful one, what else could it be except painted skin, and it secretly crawled on the roof of that man's house all night , Only then was it confirmed that the woman was Huapi.

"Painted skin? Are you sure?" Painted skin is not so much a fairy as it is a magic weapon with its own spirit, but the real painted skin is a picture of a beautiful woman drawn by Lu Dongbin, one of the legendary Eight Immortals, but Li Qing thinks Ah Huang The painted skin mentioned is probably just an ordinary magic weapon, not the legendary painted skin with the spirit of a weapon.

However, even a painted skin without a weapon spirit is very dangerous, and a goblin with a painted skin can perfectly cover its own evil spirit and prevent ordinary Taoists from finding it, which is very harmful.

But Li Qing didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, after all, although he cultivated the Tao, he was not the kind of person with a strong sense of justice, not to mention that he was still in love with a goblin, so why go hunting for a goblin?

"Cultivate well, don't bother with that person anymore." Li Qing patted Xiao Huang, and said, even if that person didn't report his crimes in this life, he would suffer in the next life, and listened to Xiao Huang In other words, it seems that retribution should have come.

"En, Xiao Huang understands." After finishing speaking, Beng Tiao left Li Qing's study, and it seemed that the knot in his heart had been untied.

Li Qing watched Ah Huang leave with a smile, but he couldn't read the book in his hand anymore, and he didn't know when he would be able to remove all the shackles on him.

This is probably the sin of time travel, that's why it's so hard, but Li Qing still thinks it's really great to be able to time travel, because here he can meet his little tiger, isn't it?

Thinking of Bai Shao, the unconscious smile on the corners of Li Qing's mouth looks warm as spring, a person who always smiles will only show a genuine smile when he meets someone he loves.

"Master, it's almost time." Uncle Li said standing at the door.

"En, let's go now." Li Qing got up, only to realize that he was still wearing the clothes when he entered the palace, so he had to go back to the bedroom temporarily and change into simple clothes.

"By the way, young master, the adults from the Ministry of Industry came just now and said that your uncle's residence is ready to move in at any time, but I don't know when you will move, so come here and ask." Uncle Li said softly.

"You can figure it out, move over here after the house is cleaned up." Since the reward has been given, it would be considered disrespectful not to move.

"Old slave knows." Uncle Li responded, "Be careful and serve him." After finishing speaking, he withdrew.

"Master, the Li residence is here." An Ping said softly.
