Chapter 19

... "

So soon, has the newly bought house become Mr. Qi's home?

Is it so fast? !

Chapter 18

It is said that Qi Heng entered the court as an official, in charge of admonishing and advising a doctor, was promoted from the fourth rank, and then specialized in allegory, regulation and admonishment, and became a speech officer.

On the first day of the court, they went up to investigate the rebels and others thoroughly, because many officials were involved in it, all the officials all looked at this fledgling junior for a while.

Gu Tingye, among the ministers on the right side, was startled, thinking that Qi Heng's new official would need three fires when he took office.

But people can't figure it out.

With the new emperor ascending the throne and the empress dowager hanging behind the curtain, it is urgent to thoroughly investigate the rebel party.

After coming down to court, Qi Heng personally went to Gu's mansion to fetch someone, and Gu's father's relatives begged for help, but Qi Heng was stern and unyielding, and took him away.

This killing of chickens and monkeys made some people in the dark afraid to take any more actions.

It's just that the Gu family suffered, and Gu Tingye was also on guard against Qi Heng.

He also couldn't tell whether Qi Heng wanted to make an example of others, or if he came here for him.

During this period of time, Qi Heng went home less and less frequently.

Lighting the lamp all night in the doctor's courtyard, looking at the recent affairs of the court and China, I am often so busy that I don't think about food or tea.

Tong Qian doesn't know what happened to his young master recently, so he worked so hard.

The copper coin carefully picked out the wick, the small flame jumped a few times, and the fire became stronger, "My lord, what's the matter with you these days? Several people from the house have come to ask you to go back and have a look."

Qi Heng didn't care about Xiaoxiao: "I'm busy with affairs in the court, and I'm a small fourth-rank official. If I don't work hard, how will I gain a firm foothold in the future."

"You want to gain a firm foothold, but you are not in a hurry." While speaking, Lian Chengbi's voice suddenly appeared.

Tong Qian looked at Lian Chengbi with a smile, and jumped off the stool, "The owner Lian is here, so I'll go out first."

The child was clever, and closed the door thoughtfully before going out.

For some reason, when Qi Heng saw Lian Chengbi, his tense heart suddenly relaxed a lot, and he lazily leaned back on the chair and looked over: "Why are you here again, no matter how good your qinggong is, you will be discovered sooner or later if you go in and out like this at will."

Lian Chengbi took out a small pot from the lunch box, opened the lid, and a strong fragrance came over his face.

"You go and get the people from the Gu family first. Although the effect is good, you have offended many people invisibly." While speaking, Lian Chengbi put the bowl in front of Qi Heng with his own hands, "Drink it."

Speaking of this, a trace of fatigue appeared on Qi Heng's face, "Why don't I know..."

Lian Chengbi looked at people with a smile: "Or do you have selfish intentions?"

Qi Heng stirred the soup and porridge in the bowl, he paused after hearing the words, and the fire in his deep eyes danced wildly, "What do you mean?"

"Angry?" Lian Chengbi sat down on the soft couch to rest on his own, poured a cup of tea against the table, and said, "Even I think so, what do you think Gu Tingye thinks?"

Qi Heng said: "I don't care what he thinks, the Son of Heaven breaks the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime, he is guilty of taking care of his family, should I indulge him?"

"Although the words are true, the officialdom is not as simple as you think." Lian Chengbi kindly reminded her, seeing that Qi Heng was not thinking, she shook her head.

When Qi Heng came back to his senses, Liancheng Biren had disappeared, leaving only a small pot of porridge on the table that was still warm.

Gu Tingye's rumors in the market are not good at all, every time Qi Heng returns from court, he can hear some gossip on the road.

He wondered many times whether Sheng Minglan was really doing well in the Gu family.

So much so that one time the next court ran into Gu Tingye who was walking towards him.

Gu Tingye also had a good temper, and shouted clearly, "Yuan Ruo."

He has a higher official position than Qi Heng, so Qi Heng naturally asked for luggage when he saw him, and Yuan Ruo bowed expressionlessly when he heard his call, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

It made Gu Tingye's hot face stick to his cold butt.

After returning, Princess Pingning personally sent someone to the doctor's courtyard to greet him, and Qi Heng left the government and returned to the Duke of Qi's mansion.

After returning to the mansion, Qi Heng felt that the mansion was slightly different.

When I entered the inner hall, I saw that Mr. Shen, the chief minister of the cabinet, was also there.

In such a situation, Qi Heng had some calculations in his mind.

Then he hated this family again.

Qi Heng didn't dare not refuse the face of the chief minister of the cabinet, so he sat down and exchanged a few words, and he did all the etiquette.

Lord Shen was also very satisfied with Qi Heng, and after getting acquainted, he said bluntly, "My granddaughter is sixteen years old, and Yuan Ruo, you are about eighteen or nineteen years old."

Qi Heng stood up and respectfully said: "Lord Shen, I'm the nineteenth minister."

Lord Shen smiled kindly: "Yuan Ruo doesn't have to stick to etiquette, you have a good character and a good talent, my little girl..."

Qi Heng stood up abruptly and successfully interrupted Lord Shen, "Father, mother, my son still has some things to do, let's go first."

Princess Pingning had never seen his son so young, and reminded him displeasedly: "Yuan Ruo! How can Master Shen talk to you so rudely!"

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Shen," Qi Heng turned his head and said to Mr. Shen very apologetically, "If the minister is indeed here, let Xiaochen take his leave first."

After all, they are all officials and noble families, Master Shen is even more important, face is still important, so they naturally followed Qi Heng's step down.

"It's okay, it's okay, Yuan Ruoke can go to work first."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Qi Heng is unwilling. Mr. Shen is scheming, and this truth is also very clear. After exchanging a few words with Qi Guogong and his wife, he is no longer interested in this marriage contract. Still go.

Princess Pingning took a big breath, and really couldn't figure out what was wrong with Qi Heng. If he could cling to the power of the Shen family, Qi Heng would be able to gain a firm foothold in the court and inherit the title of title in the future. Not to mention.

Qi Guogong was also very angry, "Last time I told you that you refused to give in, maybe Yuan Ruo has taken a fancy to someone outside, in case there is another Sheng Xiaoliu, do you think it should or shouldn't?!"

Princess Pingning said: "The left and right are our sons, I'm not doing this for his own good!"

The two elders quarreled and quarreled, but they couldn't tell the difference between right and wrong.

A young man outside the door ran in to deliver a message.

Princess Pingning hurriedly asked, "Where did Yuan Ruo go?"

The little servant replied: "Reporting to the lord, the princess, the young master has gone to the mansion of Lianchengbi in the north of the city."

Princess Pingning didn't have a good impression of Lian Chengbi, and she even disdained the recklessness of the Jianghu in her heart. Now that her son hangs around with a Jianghu person all day, it's no wonder she is angry.

Qi Guogong rubbed his brows with a headache, and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "You have been too used to him during this time, look at what he looks like now! I don't know how to be polite! It's not proper!"

"It's my fault for saying that!" Princess Pingning's eyes widened in anger, "You don't feel sorry for your son, and you don't allow me to feel bad?!"

"You!" Qi Guogong got angry for a while, but he didn't dare to make a big move against his wife, so he could only bear it.

At this time, the boy peeked at the two of them with his eyeballs gurgling, and sneered lightly at the corner of his mouth.

"I have one more thing, slave. I heard that although Lian Chengbi is the leader of the martial arts, but he cultivates kung fu of evil spirits and heretics."

Princess Pingning felt dizzy when she heard this, and staggered back to the couch, "Go, go and call Yuan Ruo back!"

The servant said again: "Miss Princess, the young master is getting angry, now go and invite..."

Qi Guogong slapped the table and stood up, angrily said: "How is he so angry!"

The boy shivered in fright, "I just saw the young master and went out angrily."

"He's angry! As an old man, I'm about to die of anger from him! I'm not a filial son!" Qi Guogong was so angry that he even uttered swear words.

Princess Pingning was disturbed by the quarrel, waved the boy back, and discussed with Qi Guogong: "I think Yuan Ruo must have something to hide from us, and I will ask him about the copper coins next to him later."

Things can only be settled in this way.

Qi Heng left the house thinking about going to the doctor's courtyard, but when he arrived at the doctor's courtyard, the gate was locked and he couldn't get in, so he had no choice but to go to Lian Chengbi's mansion.

Lian Chengbi was practicing in the courtyard, his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, the strong tendons under his wheat-colored skin were faintly visible, and the saber technique in his hand was vividly used by him, and it was pleasing to the eye to move around from one move to another.

But today Qi Heng was not in the mood to watch.

He went straight into Lian Chengbi's bedroom and fell asleep.

Lian Chengbi followed him in and had a look, seeing the tired look on the person's face, a little distressed, he tucked up the quilt for him and went out to ask questions with the copper coins.

Sitting in the courtyard, Lian Chengbi poured some spirits on the blade, and asked, "Shouldn't he be in the remonstrance courtyard at this time? How could he be willing to come out?"

The copper coin stood there obediently, clasping its fingers, not knowing whether to say or not to say.

He hesitated for a long while without saying a word.

Lian Chengbi raised his eyelids and glanced at the copper coin, and said calmly, "Say it quickly."

With just two words, I immediately let the copper coins surrender: "Young master was called back to the mansion today, and Mr. Shen Guo is also here. He came here for... the son's marriage..."

After all, Tong Qian glanced at Lian Chengbi timidly, Lian Chengbi put down the knife in his hand, and continued to listen to him seriously with great interest.

"continue."

The copper coin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "But the young master refused. This is the first time I have seen the young master lose his manners in front of the elders. I guess the master and the others are also very angry."

The smile on the corner of Lian Chengbi's mouth suddenly let go a lot, this kid finally got a little more courageous.

Lian Chengbi took out some scraps of silver and threw them to the copper coins, "Go buy some snacks that he likes to eat. I haven't had a good lunch, so I'm sure I won't feel well after waking up."

Seeing that Lian Chengbi was not only not angry, but seemed to be in a good mood, the copper coins also let go of their hands and feet, happily took the silver and ran to the market.

Lian Chengbi only gave a lot of money, and bought some of his favorite food with the copper coins, and he was very happy while eating and buying.

Waiting for the sugar man to pinch it, there is a squeak behind it
