spring and autumn officials
Chapter 30: Forced Marriage
Xian, just now when I entered the hall, I saw that bowl of seafood porridge...
Qi Lu suddenly realized, and said: "It must be that Duke Guo is greedy for this?"
Guo Gongji's father scratched the back of his head, his majestic face turned a little red, and said: "It's true, my brother Huiyan, the smell is really delicious, just smell it once, and I can't forget it, it's really worrying." .”
When Qi Lu heard this, he laughed "haha". People who didn't know thought that Guo Gong suffered from lovesickness, and it was because of a bowl of seafood porridge.
Guo Gongji's father was not afraid of his jokes, and said: "Ji's father was thinking, wait for my brother, I wonder if there is such a good fortune?"
Qi Lu saw that he was so forthright, so he said: "Lü has nothing on hand right now, but it doesn't matter, I'll ask someone to write a recipe and send it to Guogong's house in a while. This seafood porridge is cheap to cook. Very well, as long as the ingredients and seasonings are in place, anyone can make it, and when Duke Guo asks the cook in his house to cook it, he will be able to eat it every day."
When Guo Gongji's father heard it, he was really happy. He just wanted to try something new, but he didn't expect Qi Lu to be so generous and willing to take out the recipe. You must know that many cooks would not share the recipe. After all, they all shared it. There is no such thing as his uniqueness.
Ji Lin sent Zhou Gong out, and the two of them walked out of the hall, standing on the steps of Lulu's bedroom, and happened to hear the laughter of "Haha", how hearty, and looking closely, it turned out that Qi Lu and Guo Gongji's father were not far away. talking.
When Guo Gongji's father was talking about being intoxicated, he patted Qi Lu on the shoulder twice. The two of them seemed to have a very harmonious relationship, talking and laughing, and Ji Lin's eyes instantly sank, not because he was angry, but because he was bored.
Zhou Gong Hei Jian saw it, and immediately bowed out, and quickly went to the side of Guo Gong Ji's father and Qi Lu. When he passed, Ji's father had just finished talking with Qi Lu and was about to leave. When he saw Hei Jian, he went Said: "Duke Zhou, do you want to go to the Zhengshitang? Let's go together."
The two walked some distance away, Heijian looked back, saw that Qi Lu hadn't followed, sighed, and helplessly said to Guo Gongji's father: "You idiot, be careful on weekdays, don't get along with Qi Taifu. too close."
"Why?" Guogong Ji's father wondered, "Brother Qi Lu is straightforward and has no intention of harming Ji's father. Even the emperor favors Taifu Qi, why can't he get too close to Taifu?"
Heijian was even more helpless, and said quietly: "You know that the emperor favors Taifu Qi, and you are so close to Taifu Qi?" After finishing speaking, he walked away.
Guogong Ji's father scratched his hair, with a puzzled expression on his face, he said, "This...why didn't Ji's father understand?"
Qi Lv has already been promoted to Taifu, if he lives in the post house again, it doesn't look very right, at least he has his own mansion.
Ji Lin valued Qi Lu so much, so he naturally wanted to reward him with a mansion. In fact, he had already asked people to prepare it a long time ago. The mansion he rewarded covers a very spacious area and looks very grand.
Qi Lu had never lived in such a big mansion, logically speaking, he should be very happy, but after Qi Lu moved into the mansion, he suddenly felt a few problems.
The first problem, of course, is the issue of servants. As I said before, the gap between the rich and the poor in the Spring and Autumn Period was extremely huge. Doormen and servants.
And what about Qi Lu?
Although Qi Lv is now the emperor's grand tutor, compared with other senior officials, he is poor. He has just arrived, and there are no servants around him, except for a sheep shoulder. After moving into the mansion, inside and out There is simply not enough manpower for such a huge mansion.
But Qi Lu did not misunderstand the sheep shoulders. Although he is a young minister, he is well-organized inside and out. Although he is not luxurious, he is not shabby. Qi Lu does not need to worry about his basic necessities.
The second point is also the point that Qi Lu is most worried about, that is, because the mansion occupies a large area, it is inevitable that it is a little far away from the Luoshi Palace. It took a lot of time for the family to go to the palace to go to the court, and the morning was very early. Qi Lu wanted to take his time and eat breakfast before going to the court. After calculation, he estimated that he would get up at 03:30 at the latest.
03:30,不是下午03:30,而是凌晨03:30,就算是夏日炎炎,03:30也没有天亮!
There is a third thing that gives Qi Lu a headache, and that is the housewarming banquet...
When the Imperial Tutor moves into a new house, why should he hold a housewarming banquet with a nose and eyes?If you are too succinct and don't hold this housewarming banquet, the high officials in the court will think that you look down on them, this problem can be big or small.Qi Lv was promoted from a small official to Grand Tutor, so many people were waiting to catch his pigtails, so Qi Lv had to hold this housewarming party.
With no hands and no money, Qi Lu wanted to hold a housewarming banquet, but he faced two big problems.
Qi Lu has been grinding in the political affairs hall for several days, the housewarming banquet is approaching, and the sheep shoulder has urged Qi Lu several times. There is no food in the house, and it is difficult for a clever wife to cook without rice. How can a delicious banquet be made?The most important thing is the lack of money!
Who cares who borrows the money, that's the question.
Qi Lv came out of the Zhengshitang all the way, and asked if Duke Guo was there. The doctor Qing who was discussing the affairs in the Zhengshitang replied that Duke Guo was going to be an envoy to Zheng State in a few days, so he happened to be busy and was not in the Zhengshitang.
Qi Lv turned around from the Zhengshitang again, and went to the bus office near the Zhiche gate, wanting to see if Duke Guo's luggage cart had left.
Qi Lu was grinding, coincidentally, Ji Lin had just finished practicing arrows and was about to go to Lu's palace, when he saw Qi Lu from a distance, the eunuch beside him was very discerning, and said, "Ah, Son of Heaven, look Isn’t that Taifu Qi? Does the Son of Heaven want a minister to come over and invite Taifu Qi to come and talk?”
Just as Ji Lin was about to nod, he saw Guo Gongji's father coming from the side, about to go to the bus station, but Qi Lu saw Guo Gongji's father at a glance, sprinting for [-] meters, regardless of the image of the master, and rushed Guo Gongji's father ran over, as if he had met his relatives.
Ji Lin's face immediately darkened, he stood there, and did not leave immediately, but "peeking", looking in the direction of Qi Lv and Guo Gongji's father.
Guo Gongji's father had just finished his work, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the bus office, he heard someone shouting: "Guo Gong!"
He looked back and saw that it was Qi Lu. Yesterday, Mr. Guo drank the seafood porridge made from Qi Lu's recipe. It tasted so delicious. When he saw Qi Lu, he immediately laughed and said, "Brother!"
Qi Lv rushed over, and with a sneaky vigor, he pulled Guo Gongji's father and said, "Come, come, come, follow the law."
Guo Gongji's father was surprised, why is it so sneaky?
So Ji Lin saw that Qi Lu was "challenging" Guo Gongji's father, and Guo Gongji's father was "half pushing and half letting". The two circled half a circle and hid in the small house next to the bus office. It is a place where riding slaves rest and rest, and general officials would not go there.
Ji Lin frowned even more, and immediately stepped up, walking in such a hurry that the eunuch behind could barely keep up, and whispered: "My lord! My lord, please slow down, be careful, be careful, my lord..."
Ji Lin quickly walked to the side of the small house, and wanted to push the door directly to enter, but the movement of pushing the door paused, and it was still stuck. Finally, he stood by the door and began to eavesdrop openly again.
Guo Gongji's father was dumbfounded, and was dragged into the house by Qi Lu, scratched his head and said, "Brother, what are you...? Brother, did you do something wrong?"
Qi Lu said "Hi" and said, "No, it's just... just some things, it's not easy to say."
The first time Qi Lu was dating Ai Ai, he was very different from his usual glib, which made Guo Gongji's father even more puzzled, so he raised his voice and said, "Brother, you have gotten into trouble, right?!"
Qi Lu was stunned, what did Duke Guo think of himself?Hurry up to stop Guo Gong's imagining, and said: "It's a bit... unspeakable, please save the world."
Guo Gongji's father didn't understand what "rescue the rivers and lakes" meant. In ancient times, there were indeed temples and rivers and lakes. The temples were easy to understand, and they were the affairs of the imperial court. The people who came here, such as the famous bandit Zhi of Jiuqian, a mercenary, are people from the Jianghu.
Seeing that he didn't understand, Qi Lu looked confused, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "That Guo Gong... Lu Xiang, thinking..."
Standing outside, Ji Lin's inexplicable complexion was getting worse and worse. For some reason, he held his breath in his heart, fearing that Qi Lu was going to confide his sincerity to Duke Guo. Ji Lin comforted himself. I still like younger people, it is absolutely impossible to suddenly like older people today, yes, there is no such possibility.
Just when Ji Lin couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to interrupt Qi Lu's "confession" to Ji's father, Qi Lu seemed to say something, but the voice was too low, even though Ji Lin had sharp ears and eyes, he couldn't hear clearly even across the house , Immediately there was a loud "ha ha ha" laughter from Guo Gong in the house.
Guo Gongji's father said in surprise: "Brother, do you want me to borrow money?!"
Qi Lu: "..." It's said that Jianghu came to the rescue.
As soon as Qi Lu said it, he didn't feel so ashamed, so he said: "If there is food, it would be better to borrow some food."
Ji Lin was stunned outside, the handsome emperor's face was full of surprise, he wasn't confiding in his heart, but...borrowing, borrowing money?
Qi Lv wanted to hold a banquet, but he had no money. After thinking about it, Father Ji of Guo Gong was the most honest person, and it would be better to ask him to borrow money, so he planned to arrest Duke Guo to borrow money all day long.
Guogong laughed loudly and said, "Brother, if you hold a banquet, many princes will rush to give you money?"
Indeed, there are many sponsors...
Who among the princes does not know that Qi Lu is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, and has surpassed the black shoulders of the past, so he is afraid of Qi Lu, and at the same time wants to win Qi Lu into my use. Hurry to send money.
Qi Lv said: "Don't hide it from Duke Guo, both Duke Qi and Duke Lu have come to send money, but this money...Lü can't be used, so they all declined."
Qi Lv gritted his molars and declined politely, pushing the golden gold and white grains away, Qi Lv's heart was bleeding, but Qi Lv still understood the principle of eating people with short mouths.
Guo Gongji's father "laughed" at Qi Lv without any concealment. It was unbecoming of a dignified prince to borrow money for a banquet. .”
Qi Lu: "..."
Guo Gong is not stingy, he really has no money.Guogong is a person who doesn't know how to manage money, and Guogong is a big family with many people. His "salary" is a lot, but once the salary is paid, the moonlight is direct. After all, there is a big family to support, and it is no problem to eat on weekdays However, it is still a lot of money to hold a banquet, and Guo Gong really can't afford it.
Guo Gong stretched out a finger and said, "To tell you the truth, brother, I can lend you... a bucket of rice."
Qi Lu: "..." I really don't want to be poorer than Duke Guo.
Ji Lin was not very happy at first, but when he stood outside the door and heard it, he almost laughed out loud. He didn't expect that his two grand tutors were poorer than the other.Thinking of this, Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and said to the eunuch, "Duke Zhou is here to see you."
"Your Majesty respects you."
Qi Lv didn't borrow any food, so he got on the cart in desperation. As soon as he got on the cart, he heard someone calling him, saying: "Teacher, please stay."
Qi Lu looked back and saw that it was Hei Jian, the Duke of Zhou, so he stopped and said to Hei Jian, "Duke Zhou."
Although Qi Lu was a little "loofer" on weekdays, he was not so listless. Zhou Gong Heijian saw that he was listless today, laughed and said, "Teacher Qi is worried about money?"
Qi Lu was taken aback for a moment, thinking how did this vixen with black shoulders know?It must be that Guo Gongji's father slipped his mouth.In fact, he didn't know, it wasn't that Duke Guo had slipped his tongue, because Duke Guo was busy with his business, he didn't have time to talk about it, but Ji Lin called Duke Zhou over.
Hei Jian smiled and said: "The Grand Tutor is holding a housewarming banquet, and he is unwilling to accept the help of the feudal princes. Hei Jian happens to have a surplus of food here. I wonder if I can share the worries of the Tai Tu?"
Qi Lu looked suspiciously at Hei Jian and said, "Could it be usury?"
"Usury?" Heijian asked strangely, "What is usury?"
Heijian smiled and said: "Teacher Qi is at ease, the Taifu has kindness to Heijian, Heijian will never forget, the food and money for the banquet, the Taifu can just use it."
Hei Jian was generous and generous. On the second day when Qi Lu took a bath, he brought food and money, and the carts were sparkling, and they lined up a street!
Qi Lvding took a look, the food and the money were piled up in the mansion like a mountain. No matter how rich Hei Jian was, he couldn't take out so much at one time. He immediately understood that it might not be Hei Jian's handwriting at all .
Indeed, Hei Jian couldn't afford so much money and food. This handwriting belonged to Ji Lin, who is today, and Ji Lin didn't give it to Qi Lu explicitly. On the one hand, he was afraid that Qi Lu would not accept it, and on the other hand, he was also afraid that he would give it away. If so much food is given to Qi Lu, some people will envy and hate Qi Lu because of it. He wants to praise the Grand Tutor, but not to kill him.
That's why Ji Lin borrowed Hei Jian's hand to deliver the food and money. Hei Jian is a sensible person and immediately handled it clearly.
Qi Lu's housewarming banquet was held quickly and smoothly, and all the princes who stayed in Luoshi came to congratulate him, but there was one exception, and that was Wei Zhouxu.Wei Zhouxu didn't come to congratulate Qi Lv because of his "revenge", but sent his confidant minister to congratulate him, and that person was Shi Hou!
Qi Lu greeted the guests mechanically. Today's guests are either princes from various places or officials from Shangqing. They are all dignified and dignified. It is impossible to neglect anyone. The smile on Qi Lu's face is almost wholesale, mass production, one-stop.
"congratulations!"
"Teacher Qi, congratulations!"
"In the future, I will need a lot of support from my master!"
Qi Lv said repeatedly: "Don't dare to be, please come in, please take a seat. Don't dare to be...don't dare to be...please come in..."
A batch of congratulatory peaks passed by, and finally there was a gap, Qi Lu immediately said: "Little sheep, water!"
Yan Yangjian trotted over in a hurry, his movements were nimble, and brought Qi Lu a wine glass and earcup, which contained Qi Lu's specially prepared tea, which moistened his throat and lungs, which was just right for talking too much today.
Qi Lu's throat was almost smoldering, and his mouth felt worn out when he talked too much. While drinking water, he fanned himself with a wide sleeve robe. Wiping Qi Lu's sweat with a handkerchief on his feet, he straightened his clothes and said, "My lord, don't mess up your clothes to make it look disrespectful."
Qi Lu drank a full glass of water, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and felt much refreshed. As soon as he handed the glass to Yang Yang, he saw someone walking in again.
The man was tall and tall, as tall as Guo Gong, with a resolute face, but without an honest aura, instead it was full of viciousness, his eyes were subconsciously squinted, his nose was hooked, his lips were thin and slightly hooked Mouth, it is said that the face comes from the heart, but this person has a ruthless expression on his face.
The man strode in, followed by the servants, and handed the gift to the sheep shoulder. The man cupped his hands and said, "Wei Guoshi is thick, and I am here to congratulate Taifu Qi."
Shi Hounai is one of the protagonists of "Da Yi Slays Relatives", the young master of the Shi family who was beheaded by the sheep shoulder in history.
This person Shihou should be the precious son of Shi Que, the doctor of Wei. Qi Lv has heard people say that this Shihou is a general genius. He is very smart since he was a child, but he is not very smart. Assisting Wei Zhouyu in the rebellion, it can be said that Wei Zhouyu was brave but not resourceful, and he was able to successfully kill his brother and take the position, all because of Shi Hou's "credit".
Shi Hou was the son of Shi Que, and he was a nobleman of the Qing clan since he was a child, so he became acquainted with Wei Zhouxu, the prince of the Wei state, and became friends with wine and meat.Shi Que's eyes were very vicious. He felt that Wei Zhouyu was a vicious person, so he reminded Wei Hou at that time, that is, Wei Zhouyu's father, to teach his son, but Wei Hou loved to see his younger son, so Blindly pampering, the son does not teach the father's fault, Wei Zhouyu did have his father's responsibility for cultivating this kind of behavior.
Shi Que has always disliked his son's association with this Wei Zhouyu, but Wei Zhouyu wanted to win over the Shi family's influence, so he treated Shi Hou very politely. Hit it off, simply usurp the throne!
Now at this time, just after Weizhouyu succeeded in usurping the throne, Shi Hou became the number one hero and occupied the entire court of Weiguo. However, because Shi Que was old and didn't want to make suggestions for Weizhouyu, he chose to retire and return to the mountain .
Standing in front of Qi Lv, Shi Hou smiled like a jackal, even though he was smiling, he was very sinister, and said, "Congratulations to Taifu Qi for his promotion, the widowed gentleman and Taifu Qi had a small misunderstanding a few days ago, I think the Taifu will not let go." In your heart?"
Qi Lu didn't like to talk to such people, because this kind of people were born with a dangerous aura, which felt like a time bomb/bomb, so he said very coldly: "General Shi was joking, it seems to be General Shi misunderstood, Junzi Wei did not offend Lü, it was the Son of Heaven who offended Junzi Wei that day."
Shi Hou's expression fell "Shua!", his lips were slanted, his eyes flashed with the sharpness and bloodthirsty of jackals, tigers and leopards, he suddenly bent down and approached Qi Lu, Qi Lu subconsciously took a step back, who would have known Shi Hou made a sudden move and clamped Qi Lu's forearm.
His palm was broad, and as soon as he grasped Qi Lu's big arm, he pulled it directly.Qi Lu couldn't struggle at all, so he heard Shi Hou's hoarse voice, and said with a smile: "How long can the emperor love a person? When he loves him, he can't help but praise him to the sky. If he doesn't like to see you so much, then The six relatives don't recognize each other... Hou very much hopes that when that day comes, Taifu Qi's eyes will still be so sharp."
After Shi Hou finished speaking, he didn't do anything else. After all, everyone was watching. He let go of Qi Lu's arm, brushed his clothes thoughtfully, and turned to enter the banquet.
"Brother!"
Qi Lu frowned and watched Shi Hou enter the banquet, when he heard someone calling him, he didn't need to guess, it must be Sacrificial Tooth.Sure enough, Ji Ya trotted over and said very cautiously: "Brother, are you okay? What did that Shi Hou say to you?"
As he said, the grandson and grandson were all dressed in purple, taking advantage of his fair complexion and noble temperament, they also walked into the Taifu's residence together.
Gongsunzi said: "Teacher may not know, this Shi Hou is a mad dog, if he bites you, I'm afraid he won't let go."
When Qi Lu heard it, both the grandson and grandson were really educated, and this metaphor sounds quite vivid.
Ji Ya and Gongsunzi both handed the gifts to the sheep shoulders, Ji Ya smiled and said: "Eh? This is my brother's new boy, doesn't he look better?"
Pie Yangjian dutifully lowered his head, and didn't lift it up at all, Ji Ya looked flirtatious, as if he wanted to flirt with Pie Yangjian.Gongsunzi glanced at Ji Ya indifferently, and said to Qi Lu, "Teacher Qi, I have something to say, please lend me a step."
Qi Lu nodded, and the two of them went straight to the garden to talk. Although it is summer time, all the flowers should be in full bloom, but there are no flowers in Qi Lu's house. The reason is very simple, without money, it is not so elegant...
Qi Lu said, "I don't know what Zheng Guoda and his colleagues want to say?"
Gongsunzi smiled and said: "Actually, all the sons are asking the Taifu...Zheng Ji is now in Luoshi, and Zidu is a great pedestrian, but he still wants to marry Zheng Ji to the emperor. Could Fu help me a little bit?"
Qi Lu almost forgot, Zheng Ji!Qi Lu and his group all came to see off Zheng Ji's relatives. Although the sending off was actually fake and just an excuse, the grandson and grandson still wanted to work hard to marry Zheng Ji to the emperor Ji Lin.
Now the status of Zheng Guo is very awkward. Although the grandson and grandson have a little favor for Ji Lin and try their best to help him ascend the throne, in the final analysis, it is Zheng Boxu who was born greedy and insufficient, so the merits and demerits outweigh the merits. Therefore, Zheng Guo's status might be embarrassing, and Gongsunzi thought that it would be good if he could bring about good things for Zheng Ji and the emperor.
"This..." Qi Lu didn't know how to speak after hearing this.
He was still hesitating whether to meddle in this nosy business, the sound of "Tat Tat Tat!" footsteps rushed over, it was Ji Ya, who grabbed Qi Lv and said, "Brother, come with me!"
"Hey..." Qi Lu exclaimed, already being dragged away by the little calf Saiya, he ran out staggeringly, and when he turned a corner, he couldn't help but gasped with a "heh--".
Not for anything else, because the heroine Zheng Ji they were talking about just now is right in front of them!
Ji Ya pulled Qi Lu around a corner, and brought Qi Lu to Zheng Ji, who had been rumored with him in the past.Zheng Ji was dressed in a pink dress, and she seemed to be here for the housewarming banquet. She was bright and charming. She looked at Qi Lu with watery eyes, and said, "Teacher Qi, the little girl is polite."
Qi Lu subconsciously took half a step back, and said to Ji Ya in a low voice, "Are you looking for Brother Keng? Why did you bring Lu to see Zheng Ji?"
Before Sacrifice Ya, he had been helping Qi Lu avoid Zheng Ji, but he didn't know which string was wrong, but he dragged Qi Lu to meet the rumored object.
Ji Ya said confidently: "Brother, my aunt doesn't want to marry the emperor, so I asked my brother to come over and give advice."
He said, and then said: "Talk first, and I will give you a warning!"
"Brother..." Dear...
Before Qi Lu finished speaking, Ji Ya had already left in a hurry and went to the front to keep watch.
This place is very remote, it is the corner of the garden, because there are no flowers to grow, and no one to look at, so no one comes here, it seems to be a holy place for cheating.
Qi Lu was under a lot of pressure at the time, and raised his hand to wipe his forehead, but luckily he didn't sweat.
Qi Lu had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Zheng Ji, Lu is polite."
Zheng Ji looked at Qi Lu, and suddenly smiled in a low voice. This smile made Qi Lu dumbfounded. Could it be that she was disheveled or looked ridiculous? Why did she make fun of the beautiful woman for no reason?
Zheng Ji smiled and said: "Teacher Qi doesn't have to be like this, Ji didn't come to force the marriage."
Qi Lu: "..."
Zheng Ji sighed, and said, "Ji knows... Taifu Qi is not him."
Qi Lu's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Zheng Ji with guarded eyes again. It has to be said that Zheng Ji's sense is too keen, Qi Lu is conceited that no one can see what's wrong with him, but Zheng Ji can see through the clues.
"Teacher Qi is kind to Ji. If it wasn't for the help of the Tutor last time, Ji would have been insulted by that traitor Wang Zihu, so Ji would not dare to avenge her kindness. Please take care of the Tutor."
Qi Lu coughed and said, "I don't know Zheng Ji, what's the matter with Xun Lu?"
Zheng Ji lowered her head and said in a low voice: "These days Taifu Qi is very famous, and he has become a celebrity in front of the emperor, so Ji wants to ask the Taifu to tell the emperor that Ji and the emperor are indeed brother and sister. What's more, Gongsun Daxing wants to marry Ji to Master Luo, and ask Taifu Qi to help Ji."
Qi Lv felt helpless for a moment, he just wanted to sigh heavily, saying that he didn't like to meddle in other people's business anymore, the grandsons came to the left and asked him to help the emperor to marry him, so as to facilitate the good things between Zheng Ji and the emperor, but the right came Ji Ya and Zheng Ji, Zheng Ji didn't want to marry her childhood sweetheart, the emperor, now it's all over, and all of them are piled up in front of Qi Lu, who should I help?
Ji Ya stood in the distance to watch the wind, and when he saw Gongsunzi approaching, he quickly stopped him and said, "What are you doing? Don't go over."
Gongsunzi said helplessly: "You know you are asking the Taifu to help you make a marriage proposal. Why do you have to obstruct it in many ways?"
"Hmph!" Ji Ya sneered, and said, "You also know that my aunt doesn't like the emperor! There are so many men in the world, why should my aunt marry the emperor? My aunt won't be happy if she marries!"
Gongsunzi heard him so swearing, and his eyes were filled with confusion for a moment.He was dressed in purple, and he looked handsome and handsome. Suddenly he showed ignorant eyes, and almost shook Ji Ya's eyes.
The public prosecutor tilted his head slightly, and said, "Why? Marrying the emperor and becoming the heroine of the world, isn't that what every woman dreams of? Why doesn't Zheng Ji like it?"
Ji Ya looked contemptuous and said, "Don't think of all women so superficially! My aunt is different from those vulgar fans around you who come and go as soon as you call!"
"Heh..." Gongsunzi laughed suddenly, Ji Ya was a little strange, why did he still laugh when he scolded him?
Gongsunzi all of a sudden leaned down, next to Ji Ya's ear, his jet-black hair hung down, and lightly touched Ji Ya's earlobe, itching all the way to his heart.
Gongsunzi laughed and said, "Little gentleman Ji said so, I will think you are eating it."
"Eat... eat, eat..." Ji Ya's face "teng!" turned red, very red, very festive, and shouted: "I will eat your big head!"
After finishing speaking, he suddenly turned around and ran away. Gongsunzi didn't expect him to blush so suddenly, he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling, and said, "Little gentleman, are you out of control?"
Ji Ya didn't seem to hear, and ran away desperately...
Qi Lu's head is a little confused, who should I help?Speaking of it this way, it seems that Zheng Ji should be helped. After all, Qi Lu is a modern person. He feels that it is better for him to make decisions about feelings. If he is really unwilling, it will only increase his distress.
But if he really helps, will the emperor think that he has "unfinished love" for Zheng Ji? If the emperor loves to see Zheng Ji, wouldn't he become the emperor's love rival?
Just when Qi Lu was thinking hard and had no solution, Zheng Ji suddenly exclaimed, as if she was frightened, Qi Lu was a little strange, did wolves, tigers, leopards, and floods come?
Looking back, I was also silently startled in my heart, it wasn't jackals, tigers, leopards, or flood beasts, because it was more terrifying than that, it was the rapists!
——Emperor Ji Lin.
Ji Lin walked over with his hands behind his back. He didn't wear court robes today. He was dressed in white casual clothes, which made him clean and pure. That clean appearance made Qi Lu feel bad and wanted to dirty him...
Today, at Qi Taifu's housewarming banquet, the emperor actually came in person, without saying hello, and without warning, he seemed to have a smile on his face, but the smile was not very real, and said: "Taifu and sister Ji are both here, I don't know what to say." What, can the widow also listen to it?"
"No...it's nothing." Zheng Ji was startled, she saluted quickly, turned around and ran away, Ji Lin didn't stop her, and Zheng Ji disappeared soon after.
Ji Lin walked over and stood in front of Qi Lu. Under the moonlight, his figure looked extremely tall and his eyes were gentle, but Qi Lu always felt that he was here to catch rape.
Ji Lin smiled and said, "I have never been able to find the Tai Tuo. Didn't I expect the Tai Tuo to meet beautiful women at night here?"
Qi Lv bit his head, complaining in his heart to sacrifice his teeth, and said that you should take care of the wind, the emperor has let it in, what kind of wind do you have?
Qi Luqian smiled and said, "Son, you are joking. Zheng Ji is the sister of Zheng Guoqing, how dare Lu dare to climb up?"
Ji Lin felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Qi Lu "perfunctory" himself. He didn't have any interest in Zheng Ji. He always regarded Zheng Ji as his younger sister. It's also a good thing.
But Ji Lin was not happy about this, as soon as he thought about what might happen to Qi Lu and Zheng Ji, he felt extremely depressed.
Qi Lv was thinking, could it be that the Son of Heaven really likes Zheng Ji, so when he sees himself with Zheng Ji, his face is so ugly?
The two looked at each other speechlessly, feeling awkward for a while, just as the banquet was about to begin, Qi Lu hurriedly said: "Tianzi, please go this way, Lu will guide the way for the Son of Heaven."
It is a great honor for the emperor to come to the housewarming banquet, but everyone has a little illusion that the emperor seems not very happy today, and his face is dark anyway.Although the emperor usually looks friendly, like a big boy, but now he has a dark face, and his aura is very low, and no one dares to provoke him.
As today's master, Qi Lu hurriedly toasted the emperor and said, "Son of heaven, respect the emperor."
"Ah."
Ji Lin just hummed lightly, raised his head and drank the wine straightforwardly, and then...
Then there is no then.
Qi Lv felt that the emperor might regard himself as a rival in love, so today he treated him lukewarm, and didn't dare to say much, toasted a glass of wine and left.
Qi Lu happened to see Heijian and Jifu, so he walked over with a smile.Father Ji said: "My brother, what is the name of this wine, the fragrance is very unique."
Qi Lu said: "It's okay for Duke Zhou to drink two more cups of this wine, but Duke Guo doesn't need to drink too much."
Guo Gongji's father said strangely: "Why can't I drink more? Only Zhou Gong can drink?"
Qi Lu said with a smile: "It's not that Lu is stingy. This wine is medicinal wine. There are a lot of nourishing ingredients in it. I knew Zhou Gong would come today, so I prepared it specially. Guo Gong has always been so strong. If you drink more, I'm afraid it will be too late." Nosebleeds, it’s better to drink some ordinary wine.”
It turned out that Zhou Gong Hei Jian's body was still very weak, so he needed tonic, so Qi Lv thought of such things as tonic wine, and prepared some when he was free at home, and it happened to be for Zhou Gong Hei Jian to drink today.
Although this drink is good, most people, especially those who are full of blood, will probably feel hot and dry after drinking it, and they will not be able to sleep at night.
Although Qi Lu did not personally prepare the banquet today, after all, there are too many seats, and Qi Lu can't finish it, but these dishes were prepared by Qi Lu to teach the cook, and the diners were naturally very happy, and Ji Ya was drunk and staggered Hanging around Qi Lu's neck, he said with a smile: "Hey-hey-good brother, your wine...is it so sweet, as sweet as good brother?"
Qi Lv was thrown all over by the drunk, and after a closer look, Ji Ya might have drank tonic wine, and he drank too much, his face was as swollen as a tomato, and he was still tugging at his neckline, saying, "Hey... Tian'er It's hot, hot, hot!"
Qi Lu turned pale with shock and said, "Brother, brother, you have a nosebleed..."
"Huh?" Ji Ya touched his nose, it was really the case, he drank too much medicinal wine, he was fed up, and in addition to the hot weather, he also ate a lot of mutton, he really had a nosebleed, he touched his hands.
Ji Ya stared, and walked even more wobbly, "Boom!" When he fell backwards, Gongsunzi had quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed Ji Ya who had fallen down, and helplessly picked him up, and said, "Trouble me!" Taifu Qi lent me a room."
Qi Lu hurriedly said: "Little Yang, quickly take the two of you to the house."
"Yes." You Yangjian was very obedient, and led the prosecutor Du and Ji Ya to the guest room, and along the way, Ji Ya was still screaming: "My good brother, why is your waist so, so thick? You can't ...I can't eat like this anymore..."
Qi Lu got a headache from the Ya Yatism, rubbed his forehead, and was relieved to see Gongsunzi carrying the Ya Yatism away, who would have known...
"Hey!" Qi Lv exclaimed, and was suddenly hugged from the back. Looking back, this time it was the emperor!
Ji Lin was tall, much taller than Ji Ya. Ji Ya was in Qi Lu's arms, and Ji Lin held him directly in his arms.
In the public, as the emperor, Ji Lin's every move was followed by everyone, suddenly he hugged the Grand Tutor, and many people all looked over.
Qi Lu braced himself, supported the drunken Ji Lin, and said, "Son of Heaven, you are drunk."
"The widow... the widow is not drunk..." Ji Lin spoke with a bit of a tongue.
Qi Lu thought helplessly, if he was indeed drunk, only a drunk would say that he was not drunk.
And I don't know if it's Qi Lu's illusion, it seems to smell a faint smell of medicine on Ji Lin's body, it's... the smell of medicinal wine.
Qi Lu immediately turned his head to look, and sure enough, there was a jug of wine on the emperor's seat, which was the great tonic wine that Qi Lu had prepared for Duke Zhou Heijian!
Qi Lu's scalp was numb, so he quickly supported Ji Lin and said, "Son of Heaven, Lu will help you get on the carriage and go back to the palace?"
But Ji Lin shook his head and said: "If you don't go back to the palace, today... the widow will sleep with the Taifu!"
ho-
There were panting sounds all around, probably because he was dumbfounded by the righteous words of the emperor, and Qi Lu's heart was also beating fast, who knew that Ji Lin was gasping for breath, and there was something else to say: "The widow wants to sleep with the grand master! … middle."
Qi Lu: "..." The Son of Heaven asks you to straighten your tongue and speak.
Qi Lu can't help it, I'm afraid the emperor will say something
Qi Lu suddenly realized, and said: "It must be that Duke Guo is greedy for this?"
Guo Gongji's father scratched the back of his head, his majestic face turned a little red, and said: "It's true, my brother Huiyan, the smell is really delicious, just smell it once, and I can't forget it, it's really worrying." .”
When Qi Lu heard this, he laughed "haha". People who didn't know thought that Guo Gong suffered from lovesickness, and it was because of a bowl of seafood porridge.
Guo Gongji's father was not afraid of his jokes, and said: "Ji's father was thinking, wait for my brother, I wonder if there is such a good fortune?"
Qi Lu saw that he was so forthright, so he said: "Lü has nothing on hand right now, but it doesn't matter, I'll ask someone to write a recipe and send it to Guogong's house in a while. This seafood porridge is cheap to cook. Very well, as long as the ingredients and seasonings are in place, anyone can make it, and when Duke Guo asks the cook in his house to cook it, he will be able to eat it every day."
When Guo Gongji's father heard it, he was really happy. He just wanted to try something new, but he didn't expect Qi Lu to be so generous and willing to take out the recipe. You must know that many cooks would not share the recipe. After all, they all shared it. There is no such thing as his uniqueness.
Ji Lin sent Zhou Gong out, and the two of them walked out of the hall, standing on the steps of Lulu's bedroom, and happened to hear the laughter of "Haha", how hearty, and looking closely, it turned out that Qi Lu and Guo Gongji's father were not far away. talking.
When Guo Gongji's father was talking about being intoxicated, he patted Qi Lu on the shoulder twice. The two of them seemed to have a very harmonious relationship, talking and laughing, and Ji Lin's eyes instantly sank, not because he was angry, but because he was bored.
Zhou Gong Hei Jian saw it, and immediately bowed out, and quickly went to the side of Guo Gong Ji's father and Qi Lu. When he passed, Ji's father had just finished talking with Qi Lu and was about to leave. When he saw Hei Jian, he went Said: "Duke Zhou, do you want to go to the Zhengshitang? Let's go together."
The two walked some distance away, Heijian looked back, saw that Qi Lu hadn't followed, sighed, and helplessly said to Guo Gongji's father: "You idiot, be careful on weekdays, don't get along with Qi Taifu. too close."
"Why?" Guogong Ji's father wondered, "Brother Qi Lu is straightforward and has no intention of harming Ji's father. Even the emperor favors Taifu Qi, why can't he get too close to Taifu?"
Heijian was even more helpless, and said quietly: "You know that the emperor favors Taifu Qi, and you are so close to Taifu Qi?" After finishing speaking, he walked away.
Guogong Ji's father scratched his hair, with a puzzled expression on his face, he said, "This...why didn't Ji's father understand?"
Qi Lv has already been promoted to Taifu, if he lives in the post house again, it doesn't look very right, at least he has his own mansion.
Ji Lin valued Qi Lu so much, so he naturally wanted to reward him with a mansion. In fact, he had already asked people to prepare it a long time ago. The mansion he rewarded covers a very spacious area and looks very grand.
Qi Lu had never lived in such a big mansion, logically speaking, he should be very happy, but after Qi Lu moved into the mansion, he suddenly felt a few problems.
The first problem, of course, is the issue of servants. As I said before, the gap between the rich and the poor in the Spring and Autumn Period was extremely huge. Doormen and servants.
And what about Qi Lu?
Although Qi Lv is now the emperor's grand tutor, compared with other senior officials, he is poor. He has just arrived, and there are no servants around him, except for a sheep shoulder. After moving into the mansion, inside and out There is simply not enough manpower for such a huge mansion.
But Qi Lu did not misunderstand the sheep shoulders. Although he is a young minister, he is well-organized inside and out. Although he is not luxurious, he is not shabby. Qi Lu does not need to worry about his basic necessities.
The second point is also the point that Qi Lu is most worried about, that is, because the mansion occupies a large area, it is inevitable that it is a little far away from the Luoshi Palace. It took a lot of time for the family to go to the palace to go to the court, and the morning was very early. Qi Lu wanted to take his time and eat breakfast before going to the court. After calculation, he estimated that he would get up at 03:30 at the latest.
03:30,不是下午03:30,而是凌晨03:30,就算是夏日炎炎,03:30也没有天亮!
There is a third thing that gives Qi Lu a headache, and that is the housewarming banquet...
When the Imperial Tutor moves into a new house, why should he hold a housewarming banquet with a nose and eyes?If you are too succinct and don't hold this housewarming banquet, the high officials in the court will think that you look down on them, this problem can be big or small.Qi Lv was promoted from a small official to Grand Tutor, so many people were waiting to catch his pigtails, so Qi Lv had to hold this housewarming party.
With no hands and no money, Qi Lu wanted to hold a housewarming banquet, but he faced two big problems.
Qi Lu has been grinding in the political affairs hall for several days, the housewarming banquet is approaching, and the sheep shoulder has urged Qi Lu several times. There is no food in the house, and it is difficult for a clever wife to cook without rice. How can a delicious banquet be made?The most important thing is the lack of money!
Who cares who borrows the money, that's the question.
Qi Lv came out of the Zhengshitang all the way, and asked if Duke Guo was there. The doctor Qing who was discussing the affairs in the Zhengshitang replied that Duke Guo was going to be an envoy to Zheng State in a few days, so he happened to be busy and was not in the Zhengshitang.
Qi Lv turned around from the Zhengshitang again, and went to the bus office near the Zhiche gate, wanting to see if Duke Guo's luggage cart had left.
Qi Lu was grinding, coincidentally, Ji Lin had just finished practicing arrows and was about to go to Lu's palace, when he saw Qi Lu from a distance, the eunuch beside him was very discerning, and said, "Ah, Son of Heaven, look Isn’t that Taifu Qi? Does the Son of Heaven want a minister to come over and invite Taifu Qi to come and talk?”
Just as Ji Lin was about to nod, he saw Guo Gongji's father coming from the side, about to go to the bus station, but Qi Lu saw Guo Gongji's father at a glance, sprinting for [-] meters, regardless of the image of the master, and rushed Guo Gongji's father ran over, as if he had met his relatives.
Ji Lin's face immediately darkened, he stood there, and did not leave immediately, but "peeking", looking in the direction of Qi Lv and Guo Gongji's father.
Guo Gongji's father had just finished his work, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the bus office, he heard someone shouting: "Guo Gong!"
He looked back and saw that it was Qi Lu. Yesterday, Mr. Guo drank the seafood porridge made from Qi Lu's recipe. It tasted so delicious. When he saw Qi Lu, he immediately laughed and said, "Brother!"
Qi Lv rushed over, and with a sneaky vigor, he pulled Guo Gongji's father and said, "Come, come, come, follow the law."
Guo Gongji's father was surprised, why is it so sneaky?
So Ji Lin saw that Qi Lu was "challenging" Guo Gongji's father, and Guo Gongji's father was "half pushing and half letting". The two circled half a circle and hid in the small house next to the bus office. It is a place where riding slaves rest and rest, and general officials would not go there.
Ji Lin frowned even more, and immediately stepped up, walking in such a hurry that the eunuch behind could barely keep up, and whispered: "My lord! My lord, please slow down, be careful, be careful, my lord..."
Ji Lin quickly walked to the side of the small house, and wanted to push the door directly to enter, but the movement of pushing the door paused, and it was still stuck. Finally, he stood by the door and began to eavesdrop openly again.
Guo Gongji's father was dumbfounded, and was dragged into the house by Qi Lu, scratched his head and said, "Brother, what are you...? Brother, did you do something wrong?"
Qi Lu said "Hi" and said, "No, it's just... just some things, it's not easy to say."
The first time Qi Lu was dating Ai Ai, he was very different from his usual glib, which made Guo Gongji's father even more puzzled, so he raised his voice and said, "Brother, you have gotten into trouble, right?!"
Qi Lu was stunned, what did Duke Guo think of himself?Hurry up to stop Guo Gong's imagining, and said: "It's a bit... unspeakable, please save the world."
Guo Gongji's father didn't understand what "rescue the rivers and lakes" meant. In ancient times, there were indeed temples and rivers and lakes. The temples were easy to understand, and they were the affairs of the imperial court. The people who came here, such as the famous bandit Zhi of Jiuqian, a mercenary, are people from the Jianghu.
Seeing that he didn't understand, Qi Lu looked confused, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "That Guo Gong... Lu Xiang, thinking..."
Standing outside, Ji Lin's inexplicable complexion was getting worse and worse. For some reason, he held his breath in his heart, fearing that Qi Lu was going to confide his sincerity to Duke Guo. Ji Lin comforted himself. I still like younger people, it is absolutely impossible to suddenly like older people today, yes, there is no such possibility.
Just when Ji Lin couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to interrupt Qi Lu's "confession" to Ji's father, Qi Lu seemed to say something, but the voice was too low, even though Ji Lin had sharp ears and eyes, he couldn't hear clearly even across the house , Immediately there was a loud "ha ha ha" laughter from Guo Gong in the house.
Guo Gongji's father said in surprise: "Brother, do you want me to borrow money?!"
Qi Lu: "..." It's said that Jianghu came to the rescue.
As soon as Qi Lu said it, he didn't feel so ashamed, so he said: "If there is food, it would be better to borrow some food."
Ji Lin was stunned outside, the handsome emperor's face was full of surprise, he wasn't confiding in his heart, but...borrowing, borrowing money?
Qi Lv wanted to hold a banquet, but he had no money. After thinking about it, Father Ji of Guo Gong was the most honest person, and it would be better to ask him to borrow money, so he planned to arrest Duke Guo to borrow money all day long.
Guogong laughed loudly and said, "Brother, if you hold a banquet, many princes will rush to give you money?"
Indeed, there are many sponsors...
Who among the princes does not know that Qi Lu is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, and has surpassed the black shoulders of the past, so he is afraid of Qi Lu, and at the same time wants to win Qi Lu into my use. Hurry to send money.
Qi Lv said: "Don't hide it from Duke Guo, both Duke Qi and Duke Lu have come to send money, but this money...Lü can't be used, so they all declined."
Qi Lv gritted his molars and declined politely, pushing the golden gold and white grains away, Qi Lv's heart was bleeding, but Qi Lv still understood the principle of eating people with short mouths.
Guo Gongji's father "laughed" at Qi Lv without any concealment. It was unbecoming of a dignified prince to borrow money for a banquet. .”
Qi Lu: "..."
Guo Gong is not stingy, he really has no money.Guogong is a person who doesn't know how to manage money, and Guogong is a big family with many people. His "salary" is a lot, but once the salary is paid, the moonlight is direct. After all, there is a big family to support, and it is no problem to eat on weekdays However, it is still a lot of money to hold a banquet, and Guo Gong really can't afford it.
Guo Gong stretched out a finger and said, "To tell you the truth, brother, I can lend you... a bucket of rice."
Qi Lu: "..." I really don't want to be poorer than Duke Guo.
Ji Lin was not very happy at first, but when he stood outside the door and heard it, he almost laughed out loud. He didn't expect that his two grand tutors were poorer than the other.Thinking of this, Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and said to the eunuch, "Duke Zhou is here to see you."
"Your Majesty respects you."
Qi Lv didn't borrow any food, so he got on the cart in desperation. As soon as he got on the cart, he heard someone calling him, saying: "Teacher, please stay."
Qi Lu looked back and saw that it was Hei Jian, the Duke of Zhou, so he stopped and said to Hei Jian, "Duke Zhou."
Although Qi Lu was a little "loofer" on weekdays, he was not so listless. Zhou Gong Heijian saw that he was listless today, laughed and said, "Teacher Qi is worried about money?"
Qi Lu was taken aback for a moment, thinking how did this vixen with black shoulders know?It must be that Guo Gongji's father slipped his mouth.In fact, he didn't know, it wasn't that Duke Guo had slipped his tongue, because Duke Guo was busy with his business, he didn't have time to talk about it, but Ji Lin called Duke Zhou over.
Hei Jian smiled and said: "The Grand Tutor is holding a housewarming banquet, and he is unwilling to accept the help of the feudal princes. Hei Jian happens to have a surplus of food here. I wonder if I can share the worries of the Tai Tu?"
Qi Lu looked suspiciously at Hei Jian and said, "Could it be usury?"
"Usury?" Heijian asked strangely, "What is usury?"
Heijian smiled and said: "Teacher Qi is at ease, the Taifu has kindness to Heijian, Heijian will never forget, the food and money for the banquet, the Taifu can just use it."
Hei Jian was generous and generous. On the second day when Qi Lu took a bath, he brought food and money, and the carts were sparkling, and they lined up a street!
Qi Lvding took a look, the food and the money were piled up in the mansion like a mountain. No matter how rich Hei Jian was, he couldn't take out so much at one time. He immediately understood that it might not be Hei Jian's handwriting at all .
Indeed, Hei Jian couldn't afford so much money and food. This handwriting belonged to Ji Lin, who is today, and Ji Lin didn't give it to Qi Lu explicitly. On the one hand, he was afraid that Qi Lu would not accept it, and on the other hand, he was also afraid that he would give it away. If so much food is given to Qi Lu, some people will envy and hate Qi Lu because of it. He wants to praise the Grand Tutor, but not to kill him.
That's why Ji Lin borrowed Hei Jian's hand to deliver the food and money. Hei Jian is a sensible person and immediately handled it clearly.
Qi Lu's housewarming banquet was held quickly and smoothly, and all the princes who stayed in Luoshi came to congratulate him, but there was one exception, and that was Wei Zhouxu.Wei Zhouxu didn't come to congratulate Qi Lv because of his "revenge", but sent his confidant minister to congratulate him, and that person was Shi Hou!
Qi Lu greeted the guests mechanically. Today's guests are either princes from various places or officials from Shangqing. They are all dignified and dignified. It is impossible to neglect anyone. The smile on Qi Lu's face is almost wholesale, mass production, one-stop.
"congratulations!"
"Teacher Qi, congratulations!"
"In the future, I will need a lot of support from my master!"
Qi Lv said repeatedly: "Don't dare to be, please come in, please take a seat. Don't dare to be...don't dare to be...please come in..."
A batch of congratulatory peaks passed by, and finally there was a gap, Qi Lu immediately said: "Little sheep, water!"
Yan Yangjian trotted over in a hurry, his movements were nimble, and brought Qi Lu a wine glass and earcup, which contained Qi Lu's specially prepared tea, which moistened his throat and lungs, which was just right for talking too much today.
Qi Lu's throat was almost smoldering, and his mouth felt worn out when he talked too much. While drinking water, he fanned himself with a wide sleeve robe. Wiping Qi Lu's sweat with a handkerchief on his feet, he straightened his clothes and said, "My lord, don't mess up your clothes to make it look disrespectful."
Qi Lu drank a full glass of water, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and felt much refreshed. As soon as he handed the glass to Yang Yang, he saw someone walking in again.
The man was tall and tall, as tall as Guo Gong, with a resolute face, but without an honest aura, instead it was full of viciousness, his eyes were subconsciously squinted, his nose was hooked, his lips were thin and slightly hooked Mouth, it is said that the face comes from the heart, but this person has a ruthless expression on his face.
The man strode in, followed by the servants, and handed the gift to the sheep shoulder. The man cupped his hands and said, "Wei Guoshi is thick, and I am here to congratulate Taifu Qi."
Shi Hounai is one of the protagonists of "Da Yi Slays Relatives", the young master of the Shi family who was beheaded by the sheep shoulder in history.
This person Shihou should be the precious son of Shi Que, the doctor of Wei. Qi Lv has heard people say that this Shihou is a general genius. He is very smart since he was a child, but he is not very smart. Assisting Wei Zhouyu in the rebellion, it can be said that Wei Zhouyu was brave but not resourceful, and he was able to successfully kill his brother and take the position, all because of Shi Hou's "credit".
Shi Hou was the son of Shi Que, and he was a nobleman of the Qing clan since he was a child, so he became acquainted with Wei Zhouxu, the prince of the Wei state, and became friends with wine and meat.Shi Que's eyes were very vicious. He felt that Wei Zhouyu was a vicious person, so he reminded Wei Hou at that time, that is, Wei Zhouyu's father, to teach his son, but Wei Hou loved to see his younger son, so Blindly pampering, the son does not teach the father's fault, Wei Zhouyu did have his father's responsibility for cultivating this kind of behavior.
Shi Que has always disliked his son's association with this Wei Zhouyu, but Wei Zhouyu wanted to win over the Shi family's influence, so he treated Shi Hou very politely. Hit it off, simply usurp the throne!
Now at this time, just after Weizhouyu succeeded in usurping the throne, Shi Hou became the number one hero and occupied the entire court of Weiguo. However, because Shi Que was old and didn't want to make suggestions for Weizhouyu, he chose to retire and return to the mountain .
Standing in front of Qi Lv, Shi Hou smiled like a jackal, even though he was smiling, he was very sinister, and said, "Congratulations to Taifu Qi for his promotion, the widowed gentleman and Taifu Qi had a small misunderstanding a few days ago, I think the Taifu will not let go." In your heart?"
Qi Lu didn't like to talk to such people, because this kind of people were born with a dangerous aura, which felt like a time bomb/bomb, so he said very coldly: "General Shi was joking, it seems to be General Shi misunderstood, Junzi Wei did not offend Lü, it was the Son of Heaven who offended Junzi Wei that day."
Shi Hou's expression fell "Shua!", his lips were slanted, his eyes flashed with the sharpness and bloodthirsty of jackals, tigers and leopards, he suddenly bent down and approached Qi Lu, Qi Lu subconsciously took a step back, who would have known Shi Hou made a sudden move and clamped Qi Lu's forearm.
His palm was broad, and as soon as he grasped Qi Lu's big arm, he pulled it directly.Qi Lu couldn't struggle at all, so he heard Shi Hou's hoarse voice, and said with a smile: "How long can the emperor love a person? When he loves him, he can't help but praise him to the sky. If he doesn't like to see you so much, then The six relatives don't recognize each other... Hou very much hopes that when that day comes, Taifu Qi's eyes will still be so sharp."
After Shi Hou finished speaking, he didn't do anything else. After all, everyone was watching. He let go of Qi Lu's arm, brushed his clothes thoughtfully, and turned to enter the banquet.
"Brother!"
Qi Lu frowned and watched Shi Hou enter the banquet, when he heard someone calling him, he didn't need to guess, it must be Sacrificial Tooth.Sure enough, Ji Ya trotted over and said very cautiously: "Brother, are you okay? What did that Shi Hou say to you?"
As he said, the grandson and grandson were all dressed in purple, taking advantage of his fair complexion and noble temperament, they also walked into the Taifu's residence together.
Gongsunzi said: "Teacher may not know, this Shi Hou is a mad dog, if he bites you, I'm afraid he won't let go."
When Qi Lu heard it, both the grandson and grandson were really educated, and this metaphor sounds quite vivid.
Ji Ya and Gongsunzi both handed the gifts to the sheep shoulders, Ji Ya smiled and said: "Eh? This is my brother's new boy, doesn't he look better?"
Pie Yangjian dutifully lowered his head, and didn't lift it up at all, Ji Ya looked flirtatious, as if he wanted to flirt with Pie Yangjian.Gongsunzi glanced at Ji Ya indifferently, and said to Qi Lu, "Teacher Qi, I have something to say, please lend me a step."
Qi Lu nodded, and the two of them went straight to the garden to talk. Although it is summer time, all the flowers should be in full bloom, but there are no flowers in Qi Lu's house. The reason is very simple, without money, it is not so elegant...
Qi Lu said, "I don't know what Zheng Guoda and his colleagues want to say?"
Gongsunzi smiled and said: "Actually, all the sons are asking the Taifu...Zheng Ji is now in Luoshi, and Zidu is a great pedestrian, but he still wants to marry Zheng Ji to the emperor. Could Fu help me a little bit?"
Qi Lu almost forgot, Zheng Ji!Qi Lu and his group all came to see off Zheng Ji's relatives. Although the sending off was actually fake and just an excuse, the grandson and grandson still wanted to work hard to marry Zheng Ji to the emperor Ji Lin.
Now the status of Zheng Guo is very awkward. Although the grandson and grandson have a little favor for Ji Lin and try their best to help him ascend the throne, in the final analysis, it is Zheng Boxu who was born greedy and insufficient, so the merits and demerits outweigh the merits. Therefore, Zheng Guo's status might be embarrassing, and Gongsunzi thought that it would be good if he could bring about good things for Zheng Ji and the emperor.
"This..." Qi Lu didn't know how to speak after hearing this.
He was still hesitating whether to meddle in this nosy business, the sound of "Tat Tat Tat!" footsteps rushed over, it was Ji Ya, who grabbed Qi Lv and said, "Brother, come with me!"
"Hey..." Qi Lu exclaimed, already being dragged away by the little calf Saiya, he ran out staggeringly, and when he turned a corner, he couldn't help but gasped with a "heh--".
Not for anything else, because the heroine Zheng Ji they were talking about just now is right in front of them!
Ji Ya pulled Qi Lu around a corner, and brought Qi Lu to Zheng Ji, who had been rumored with him in the past.Zheng Ji was dressed in a pink dress, and she seemed to be here for the housewarming banquet. She was bright and charming. She looked at Qi Lu with watery eyes, and said, "Teacher Qi, the little girl is polite."
Qi Lu subconsciously took half a step back, and said to Ji Ya in a low voice, "Are you looking for Brother Keng? Why did you bring Lu to see Zheng Ji?"
Before Sacrifice Ya, he had been helping Qi Lu avoid Zheng Ji, but he didn't know which string was wrong, but he dragged Qi Lu to meet the rumored object.
Ji Ya said confidently: "Brother, my aunt doesn't want to marry the emperor, so I asked my brother to come over and give advice."
He said, and then said: "Talk first, and I will give you a warning!"
"Brother..." Dear...
Before Qi Lu finished speaking, Ji Ya had already left in a hurry and went to the front to keep watch.
This place is very remote, it is the corner of the garden, because there are no flowers to grow, and no one to look at, so no one comes here, it seems to be a holy place for cheating.
Qi Lu was under a lot of pressure at the time, and raised his hand to wipe his forehead, but luckily he didn't sweat.
Qi Lu had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Zheng Ji, Lu is polite."
Zheng Ji looked at Qi Lu, and suddenly smiled in a low voice. This smile made Qi Lu dumbfounded. Could it be that she was disheveled or looked ridiculous? Why did she make fun of the beautiful woman for no reason?
Zheng Ji smiled and said: "Teacher Qi doesn't have to be like this, Ji didn't come to force the marriage."
Qi Lu: "..."
Zheng Ji sighed, and said, "Ji knows... Taifu Qi is not him."
Qi Lu's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Zheng Ji with guarded eyes again. It has to be said that Zheng Ji's sense is too keen, Qi Lu is conceited that no one can see what's wrong with him, but Zheng Ji can see through the clues.
"Teacher Qi is kind to Ji. If it wasn't for the help of the Tutor last time, Ji would have been insulted by that traitor Wang Zihu, so Ji would not dare to avenge her kindness. Please take care of the Tutor."
Qi Lu coughed and said, "I don't know Zheng Ji, what's the matter with Xun Lu?"
Zheng Ji lowered her head and said in a low voice: "These days Taifu Qi is very famous, and he has become a celebrity in front of the emperor, so Ji wants to ask the Taifu to tell the emperor that Ji and the emperor are indeed brother and sister. What's more, Gongsun Daxing wants to marry Ji to Master Luo, and ask Taifu Qi to help Ji."
Qi Lv felt helpless for a moment, he just wanted to sigh heavily, saying that he didn't like to meddle in other people's business anymore, the grandsons came to the left and asked him to help the emperor to marry him, so as to facilitate the good things between Zheng Ji and the emperor, but the right came Ji Ya and Zheng Ji, Zheng Ji didn't want to marry her childhood sweetheart, the emperor, now it's all over, and all of them are piled up in front of Qi Lu, who should I help?
Ji Ya stood in the distance to watch the wind, and when he saw Gongsunzi approaching, he quickly stopped him and said, "What are you doing? Don't go over."
Gongsunzi said helplessly: "You know you are asking the Taifu to help you make a marriage proposal. Why do you have to obstruct it in many ways?"
"Hmph!" Ji Ya sneered, and said, "You also know that my aunt doesn't like the emperor! There are so many men in the world, why should my aunt marry the emperor? My aunt won't be happy if she marries!"
Gongsunzi heard him so swearing, and his eyes were filled with confusion for a moment.He was dressed in purple, and he looked handsome and handsome. Suddenly he showed ignorant eyes, and almost shook Ji Ya's eyes.
The public prosecutor tilted his head slightly, and said, "Why? Marrying the emperor and becoming the heroine of the world, isn't that what every woman dreams of? Why doesn't Zheng Ji like it?"
Ji Ya looked contemptuous and said, "Don't think of all women so superficially! My aunt is different from those vulgar fans around you who come and go as soon as you call!"
"Heh..." Gongsunzi laughed suddenly, Ji Ya was a little strange, why did he still laugh when he scolded him?
Gongsunzi all of a sudden leaned down, next to Ji Ya's ear, his jet-black hair hung down, and lightly touched Ji Ya's earlobe, itching all the way to his heart.
Gongsunzi laughed and said, "Little gentleman Ji said so, I will think you are eating it."
"Eat... eat, eat..." Ji Ya's face "teng!" turned red, very red, very festive, and shouted: "I will eat your big head!"
After finishing speaking, he suddenly turned around and ran away. Gongsunzi didn't expect him to blush so suddenly, he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling, and said, "Little gentleman, are you out of control?"
Ji Ya didn't seem to hear, and ran away desperately...
Qi Lu's head is a little confused, who should I help?Speaking of it this way, it seems that Zheng Ji should be helped. After all, Qi Lu is a modern person. He feels that it is better for him to make decisions about feelings. If he is really unwilling, it will only increase his distress.
But if he really helps, will the emperor think that he has "unfinished love" for Zheng Ji? If the emperor loves to see Zheng Ji, wouldn't he become the emperor's love rival?
Just when Qi Lu was thinking hard and had no solution, Zheng Ji suddenly exclaimed, as if she was frightened, Qi Lu was a little strange, did wolves, tigers, leopards, and floods come?
Looking back, I was also silently startled in my heart, it wasn't jackals, tigers, leopards, or flood beasts, because it was more terrifying than that, it was the rapists!
——Emperor Ji Lin.
Ji Lin walked over with his hands behind his back. He didn't wear court robes today. He was dressed in white casual clothes, which made him clean and pure. That clean appearance made Qi Lu feel bad and wanted to dirty him...
Today, at Qi Taifu's housewarming banquet, the emperor actually came in person, without saying hello, and without warning, he seemed to have a smile on his face, but the smile was not very real, and said: "Taifu and sister Ji are both here, I don't know what to say." What, can the widow also listen to it?"
"No...it's nothing." Zheng Ji was startled, she saluted quickly, turned around and ran away, Ji Lin didn't stop her, and Zheng Ji disappeared soon after.
Ji Lin walked over and stood in front of Qi Lu. Under the moonlight, his figure looked extremely tall and his eyes were gentle, but Qi Lu always felt that he was here to catch rape.
Ji Lin smiled and said, "I have never been able to find the Tai Tuo. Didn't I expect the Tai Tuo to meet beautiful women at night here?"
Qi Lv bit his head, complaining in his heart to sacrifice his teeth, and said that you should take care of the wind, the emperor has let it in, what kind of wind do you have?
Qi Luqian smiled and said, "Son, you are joking. Zheng Ji is the sister of Zheng Guoqing, how dare Lu dare to climb up?"
Ji Lin felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Qi Lu "perfunctory" himself. He didn't have any interest in Zheng Ji. He always regarded Zheng Ji as his younger sister. It's also a good thing.
But Ji Lin was not happy about this, as soon as he thought about what might happen to Qi Lu and Zheng Ji, he felt extremely depressed.
Qi Lv was thinking, could it be that the Son of Heaven really likes Zheng Ji, so when he sees himself with Zheng Ji, his face is so ugly?
The two looked at each other speechlessly, feeling awkward for a while, just as the banquet was about to begin, Qi Lu hurriedly said: "Tianzi, please go this way, Lu will guide the way for the Son of Heaven."
It is a great honor for the emperor to come to the housewarming banquet, but everyone has a little illusion that the emperor seems not very happy today, and his face is dark anyway.Although the emperor usually looks friendly, like a big boy, but now he has a dark face, and his aura is very low, and no one dares to provoke him.
As today's master, Qi Lu hurriedly toasted the emperor and said, "Son of heaven, respect the emperor."
"Ah."
Ji Lin just hummed lightly, raised his head and drank the wine straightforwardly, and then...
Then there is no then.
Qi Lv felt that the emperor might regard himself as a rival in love, so today he treated him lukewarm, and didn't dare to say much, toasted a glass of wine and left.
Qi Lu happened to see Heijian and Jifu, so he walked over with a smile.Father Ji said: "My brother, what is the name of this wine, the fragrance is very unique."
Qi Lu said: "It's okay for Duke Zhou to drink two more cups of this wine, but Duke Guo doesn't need to drink too much."
Guo Gongji's father said strangely: "Why can't I drink more? Only Zhou Gong can drink?"
Qi Lu said with a smile: "It's not that Lu is stingy. This wine is medicinal wine. There are a lot of nourishing ingredients in it. I knew Zhou Gong would come today, so I prepared it specially. Guo Gong has always been so strong. If you drink more, I'm afraid it will be too late." Nosebleeds, it’s better to drink some ordinary wine.”
It turned out that Zhou Gong Hei Jian's body was still very weak, so he needed tonic, so Qi Lv thought of such things as tonic wine, and prepared some when he was free at home, and it happened to be for Zhou Gong Hei Jian to drink today.
Although this drink is good, most people, especially those who are full of blood, will probably feel hot and dry after drinking it, and they will not be able to sleep at night.
Although Qi Lu did not personally prepare the banquet today, after all, there are too many seats, and Qi Lu can't finish it, but these dishes were prepared by Qi Lu to teach the cook, and the diners were naturally very happy, and Ji Ya was drunk and staggered Hanging around Qi Lu's neck, he said with a smile: "Hey-hey-good brother, your wine...is it so sweet, as sweet as good brother?"
Qi Lv was thrown all over by the drunk, and after a closer look, Ji Ya might have drank tonic wine, and he drank too much, his face was as swollen as a tomato, and he was still tugging at his neckline, saying, "Hey... Tian'er It's hot, hot, hot!"
Qi Lu turned pale with shock and said, "Brother, brother, you have a nosebleed..."
"Huh?" Ji Ya touched his nose, it was really the case, he drank too much medicinal wine, he was fed up, and in addition to the hot weather, he also ate a lot of mutton, he really had a nosebleed, he touched his hands.
Ji Ya stared, and walked even more wobbly, "Boom!" When he fell backwards, Gongsunzi had quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed Ji Ya who had fallen down, and helplessly picked him up, and said, "Trouble me!" Taifu Qi lent me a room."
Qi Lu hurriedly said: "Little Yang, quickly take the two of you to the house."
"Yes." You Yangjian was very obedient, and led the prosecutor Du and Ji Ya to the guest room, and along the way, Ji Ya was still screaming: "My good brother, why is your waist so, so thick? You can't ...I can't eat like this anymore..."
Qi Lu got a headache from the Ya Yatism, rubbed his forehead, and was relieved to see Gongsunzi carrying the Ya Yatism away, who would have known...
"Hey!" Qi Lv exclaimed, and was suddenly hugged from the back. Looking back, this time it was the emperor!
Ji Lin was tall, much taller than Ji Ya. Ji Ya was in Qi Lu's arms, and Ji Lin held him directly in his arms.
In the public, as the emperor, Ji Lin's every move was followed by everyone, suddenly he hugged the Grand Tutor, and many people all looked over.
Qi Lu braced himself, supported the drunken Ji Lin, and said, "Son of Heaven, you are drunk."
"The widow... the widow is not drunk..." Ji Lin spoke with a bit of a tongue.
Qi Lu thought helplessly, if he was indeed drunk, only a drunk would say that he was not drunk.
And I don't know if it's Qi Lu's illusion, it seems to smell a faint smell of medicine on Ji Lin's body, it's... the smell of medicinal wine.
Qi Lu immediately turned his head to look, and sure enough, there was a jug of wine on the emperor's seat, which was the great tonic wine that Qi Lu had prepared for Duke Zhou Heijian!
Qi Lu's scalp was numb, so he quickly supported Ji Lin and said, "Son of Heaven, Lu will help you get on the carriage and go back to the palace?"
But Ji Lin shook his head and said: "If you don't go back to the palace, today... the widow will sleep with the Taifu!"
ho-
There were panting sounds all around, probably because he was dumbfounded by the righteous words of the emperor, and Qi Lu's heart was also beating fast, who knew that Ji Lin was gasping for breath, and there was something else to say: "The widow wants to sleep with the grand master! … middle."
Qi Lu: "..." The Son of Heaven asks you to straighten your tongue and speak.
Qi Lu can't help it, I'm afraid the emperor will say something
