Empress Lu couldn't get off the stage, and finally asked the people in the palace to prepare poisonous wine and run to force it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The aftermath was shocked, and Lu Zhili's dispatch of troops was also invisible, and at the same time, because Liu Hai was close to Lu Zhi, he also participated in the innovation of the imperial court, and was also severely impeached by the imperial historians of the imperial court. If you want to talk about the Lu Party, the Lu Party is the Party of the Queen Lu, and if the clan brother dies, it will be the most unfavorable for her to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle and break up the party.

She calmed down the situation, did not collude, and even rewarded people like Liu Hai who were friends with Zhang Guotao.

And for this reward, Liu Hai is not a person inside and out, and some people even suspect that Lu Zhiyue's son-in-law and his son-in-law were stabbed by someone as close to Liu Hai.

For a few days, Bangs' face was gray.

Liu Qi soon knew the reason, Zhang Guotao committed suicide, Lu Zhi was imprisoned, and Lu Dang's Abba pleaded guilty to the court against his will. In order not to annoy Abba, he was unprecedentedly obedient, **** went to the palace, ran around with the king, had nothing to do, found a place to sit, and didn't dare to mention the idea of wanting to resign. He waited for Abba to pick up Zhang Guotao's wife and children, and then waited for Abba to be summoned by the Queen Mother, and returned without incident, and began to look for a long-term solution, because after the death of Erniu, he had no income at all, and his career began to collapse.

But if this continues, his business will be over. He sighed day by day, day by day, waiting for Abba's temperament to improve, and he could still be disobedient.

One night. A few carriages were parked early on the side of the tall porch in front of Liu's mansion.

When Liu Qi came back, just as a few carriages were leaving, he followed and looked at it, and then entered the courtyard in confusion.

A large group of children were playing, and Qiao Bang was sitting on the edge of the west chamber watching, and as soon as they saw Liu Qi coming back, they stopped and gathered their eyes. Liu Qi felt strange in his heart, but he didn't run to them as usual, but continued to walk inside.

Liu Axue walked to the west wing, and when she saw him, she threw him a sentence: "Are you satisfied?!" ”

And then he walked away.

Liu Qi didn't understand what was going on at all, and after paying attention for a while, he heard the excitement inside before he reached the hall.

He saw his father's bad face at a glance, and he hesitated for a moment and didn't dare to go in.

Zhang Mao and several family members carried some utensils to the side of the room, and when they saw him, they returned to it with a happy face. Zhang Lushi was the first to come out, her eyes didn't have tears as usual, but a hint of a smile, and asked Liu Qidao: "Don't come in yet!" ”

Then, he heard his grandmother screaming again, so he had to keep his head down and rush in.

As soon as I entered the living room, I saw a pearl-haired Huang Jiaojiao with her head bowed deeply, sitting uneasily in the middle of a group of mothers and maids, and then she understood what Liu Axue threw "Satisfied, right?" ”

He looked at Abba and Aunt on the side uneasily, and he just didn't know what to do.

When Liu Hai saw him come back, he didn't give a face, but just helped the unhappy Zhang Lancai and said to Liu Qi: "Let's see how you explain to Sister Liushu." With that, get up and leave.

Two aunts and an aunt all said good and bad in a few times.

Liu Qi didn't hear much, he just lowered his head, sweated profusely, and screamed in his heart, he thought Huang Jiaojiao was beautiful, and it was very comfortable to take advantage of it, but he never thought of marrying home. It was not early, and the black shadow cast by the lit copper lamp in front of him, just like Xiao Ling standing in front of him and looking at it coldly, ignoring it, he was in a hurry, scratching his ears and cheeks and saying, "Send it back!" To send it back! ”

Everyone thought he was ashamed, even Zhang Lancai knew that it was too late to say anything.

The people from the Huang family didn't have a taste in their hearts, and the older ones comforted Huang Jiaojiao a few words, and then helped her and Liu Qi to go together.

Liu Qi looked at Huang Jiaojiao, and it happened that Huang Jiaojiao also squinted at him, and it seemed that he was a little touching. He took a good look, and saw that Huang Jiaojiao was wearing a heavy red velvet skirt, the calf velvet cotton was tied into the boots, and the skirt in several layers was hooked by silk threads to form a peony-like wrap wrapped in a rolling ball, and the waist was wrapped and knotted at the back, so that the not very full body was tied firmly, and the upper body was wrapped in a green jacket, and he thought in his heart: This extremely beautiful dress would look better if it was worn on Xiaoling's sister-in-law.

He looked again silently, and after noticing Huang Jiaojiao's face, he was suddenly shocked.

Huang Jiaojiao's cheeks were covered with pink heavy powder, with lead lines, a small mouth - with vermilion, and then soaked in saliva, dry on the outside and dyed on the inside, it was really ugly, the whole thing was not like a human color, it was a peach blossom demon.

He walked a few steps hairily, unconsciously deviated a little, and said in his heart: I have seen her before, why have I never felt so ugly?

No matter what he thought, he even planned to flee overnight, but by nightfall, Huang Jiaojiao was still sent to the house where he lived.

Liu Qi saw that she was trembling and looking at the fur and books in the room, and only then did he feel pity in his heart, so he urged: "Wash your big flower face, so as not to scare people at night." ”

Huang Jiaojiao took two steps, just dared to sit on the bed, and when he said this, he stood up like a needle prick, and his teeth rang loudly.

Liu Qi had no choice, so he pulled her out to wash her face, and then took her back to the house.

Back in the room, in the yellow light, he looked left and right, but no matter how he looked, the other party sat still in one position, his eyes were timid and panicked, and his face was stiff. He looked awkward, so he pinched a face with one hand, struggled a few times with both hands to support her smile, and asked again and again: "Where's your smile?" Huang Jiaojiao didn't know if he was scratched and hurt, so she cried, and tears flowed down Liu Qi's hand. He went out to have a look, and then turned around and pulled Huang Jiaojiao and sent her to live with Qiao Bang.

Huang Jiaojiao didn't know what he was going to do, but when he was going to throw himself into the cold ground outside, he tried his best to pile himself on the kang, and cried all the way like a human being: "I don't dare anymore, don't throw me out!" ”

Early the next morning.

Liu Qi couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately went to the court and handed over a piece of paper, wanting to worry about his deceased mother.

Filial piety is the first thing in life, Ding worries about filial piety is a big deal, and he is not a pivotal minister.

His father didn't know that he was already like a wild horse, coming and going in the East City.

It's just that one day, Empress Dowager Lu recruited Liu Hai to discuss the matter, and Empress Dowager Lu asked him: "The insider has been driving a crane recently?" "The second monk of Liu Haizhang couldn't figure it out. Empress Dowager Lu finally punished Liu Hai for half a year for the crime of not being strict with her son, and asked him to discipline her son well, discipline him well, and then send him back to the emperor.

At this time, Liu Qi was already the most active figure in the East Market, selling meat and doing other businesses at the same time.

In a few days, he is going to expand his business, in the market of the East City to hang a sign to ask the shopkeeper, the New Year is a good season, all over the Haoqiang to buy New Year's goods, go to the countryside is the right time, you can enter some red goods, women to exchange for food, cloth, sometimes dawn, he took a few people to set off in a hurry, rushed to the dock to grab the goods, is the same to do, this day he came to grab the New Year's goods, suddenly arrived at a boat of fish, went up to ask, are in the guild, a chagrin, just want to pry the way of the goods.

He turned around, put on Li Duocai's dog-eared hat, dressed up as a local dealer, and when the fish in the fish shops were finished, the boat was empty, and when he came to the owner of the small hat with a big leather robe, he asked in a thoughtful voice: "May I ask where did you get the fish here?!" ”

The owner of the little hat was very disdainful, waved him away, and said, "Far away, let you know where you are, and you can't go." Liu Qi said stubbornly: "You can get there with a boat, why can't I go with two legs?!" The whole circle of people was happy, and without saying a word, they threw the name of the place and how to go to him, and instigated: "You go." ”

Liu Qi really wanted to go, he felt that he was leading the horse like a little merchant, entering other people's things, and exchanging some bits and pieces, which was not a way to make money at all, so he turned back to Li Duocai and said: "These stupid presumptions, aren't they just hundreds of miles?!" We don't have boats, we have horses. Besides, there are still some days before the Chinese New Year, and you can push it with a wheelbarrow. ”

Li Duocai didn't have too many opinions, hugged his sleeves and nodded blindly.

In the afternoon, more than a dozen wheelbarrows marched along the way, carrying flatbread on their backs, and followed a carriage grinding on the official road of Zhizhou, in order to prevent looting, they also brought whistle sticks and wooden guns.

On the second day, it snowed, and the air was faint, like old cotton replayed, and the wind and snow swooped down, and it hurt to stick out your face.

The people on foot couldn't hold it up, but there was no place to avoid it in the deserted suburbs where there were no villages or shops, so they had to drag their bodies and tremble.

How far is this from the capital? It's all brought about by war.

Liu Qi saw that they were depressed, and he was also worried about the getting heavier and heavier snow, and asked Li Duocai: "Ask them, does anyone know about Li Yi?" ”

These people rarely go out, and they are no better than Liu Qi, who inquired about the names of places along the road, but they were so cold that they complained.

Li Duocai turned to ask others, but he couldn't find the place.

After going out for a day, they couldn't turn back, Liu Qi was helpless, but encouraged them to continue walking, seeing that the clothes on their bodies were quite thin, and some people couldn't hold it for a long time, so they came up with a way, asking them to drape the hemp pieces on the wheelbarrow, pull out the hemp silk, and tie them tightly around their necks.

After a while, the wind and snow began to blow violently.

Everyone found a leeward slope to rest, boiled some chili water, and ate dry food. Everyone is cold and tired, and they don't want to go anymore after this break.

There was money in the car, and these hired people were unreliable, Li Duocai didn't let them get on the carriage to rest, so that his family could see the car solid. More than a dozen people couldn't do it, so they immediately put the wheelbarrow half-lifted on the mat and made a circle, and then went in and hugged them in a bunch, chirping and talking, and it was safe.

Liu Qi was worried that the convoy was blocked by the wind and snow, so he went up the slope in front of him and looked around with a pergola, but there were only snowflakes dancing in front of him, and he couldn't see far at all.

A gust of wind blew in, and he shivered.

A young man got up wearing a piece of linen, went in and out of the pile twice, reached a unanimous statement, came to Liu Qi's side and said: "It's snowing and freezing, can the people there catch fish?" ”

A group of people chimed in and cheered vigorously.

Li Duocai looked around, curled up and grabbed the lint on his body, and said with a trembling mouth: "Young master, what should I do?" Then he said, "Shout out, we are the ones who lose the fish, and we don't want to pay you for your food?!" Liu Qi saw that his face was blue and red, and he was excited, so he casually pulled him uphill, and waved to a bunch of people, shouting, "Come!" I see that it looks like a village, don't you see?! ”

In the middle of nowhere, the village is the most desirable.

The person came up with a hula, and looked at Liu Qi's hand, but he couldn't see anything clearly.

After a moment, one of them said uncertainly, "It looks like there's a village!" A few people were happy, and after a few clicks, they seemed to say yes, and then recognized as yes. They rushed down, pushed the cart and went first. Liu Qi and Li Duocai also got on the horse and followed behind.

Everyone braved the snow and ran for seven or eight miles, but they didn't see anything, and they were all discouraged.

"The slope is high! It's probably a little farther away, and then take a look at it! Liu Ah continued to shout.

Most of the people were unwilling, roaring and singing, twisting their buttocks and running fast, running for more than ten miles, and seeing a few parallel posts on the side of the official road, but still no one was seen. Everyone was sweating, but they no longer felt cold, and when they saw that it was getting late, and the snowflakes were bigger, they were deflated for a while. "Don't sweat, let's walk slowly for a while and then find a place to rest!"

Liu Qi said unwillingly. The people walked slowly, looking for a place to shelter from the wind and snow, but they saw a small shop on the side of the road.

Through the snowlight, Liu Qi went to look, but saw two doors that had fallen to the ground, and then he knew that the store had been abandoned. But he thought: This is good, it saves people's money!

This is an abandoned wild shop, with a road in front and a few half-collapsed huts in the back, and a half-collapsed yard in the middle. There was a big opening on the top of the guest room, and the snow marks on the ground were poured, and the cabinet in front of it was touched and removed, and it seemed that it had been deserted for a long time.

The crowd went in and cheered a field of chickens.

Liu Qiyan was in a hurry, and chopped with a knife, and everyone also rounded up and arrested more than a dozen of them. A thin man was overjoyed and said, "There is a pheasant in the wild shop, and the meat is prepared." ”

Everyone broke the counter and some rotten wood to light the fire, and Li Duocai went to the back to look.

It's not too dark in the away game, but it's gloomy, Liu Qi is sorting out his prey by the light, and suddenly he saw a person looking for firewood touching a person's skull, screaming, and couldn't help laughing.

A group of people trembled, knelt down and sued God for grandma, begging not to have any demons and monsters. was making a big fuss, and suddenly a dog barked loudly, only to see Li Duocai shouting, staggering back, and shouting: "Wolf! His feet went limp, and he was suddenly frightened.

Liu Qi stepped behind in a few arrow steps, and after a while, he dragged back a dead dog, and said happily: "What wolf?" Dog! Meat again! ”

By this time the people had already lit a fire, and there were not only the skulls but also several more bones in the room, and they had told the gods and were driving them aside with their feet.

Everyone cleaned up, rushed into the carriage, the horses, laid hemp chips in the open air, sat around the fire and boiled and roasted, not for a while, the meat was fragrant and the fire was shining.

The light catches the eye in the night.

They had eaten something, and some of them had fallen asleep.

Liu Qi was also a little tired, but he still braced himself up and got up to feed the horse some hot water. Unexpectedly, a few angry shouts, dozens of strongmen were killed inside and out, and the big house of the away country was full. The leader was a big man in black, with big eyes and a big nose, and he shouted angrily: "What is there to eat, drink, take out the gold, silver and money!" ”

Everyone got up to be vigilant and touched the guys, but most of them were timid citizens, and they all trembled a little, and looked at Li Duocai and Liu Qi in unison.

Liu Qi stepped forward with a knife, and Li Duocai and a member of his own family followed closely.

"Do you want to rob?" Liu Qi said.

He quickly calmed down and said in his heart: It's really unlucky, just bring a lot of money this time.

"! Who is your head? The black man was carrying a leopard-ring broadsword, and with a whirring sound, he pointed to it and asked, "What is in the carriage?" Open it up and let you see it! ”

Liu Qi knew that those hired people were not worth it, but he was unwilling to pay for the goods, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger and said: "Uncle, they are all like-minded people, you have dozens of people, I also have more than a dozen people, I don't know who loses and who wins, why don't I give you some money for the passage, everyone forget it, come and go, and make a fortune!"
