Chapter 15: The Ways Are Different and Do Not Conspire
Not long after Qin Shou escaped from the sea of suffering, new visitors arrived. Qin Shou was so distressed that he had the urge to go crazy, and he would make people rest? This time the visitor was not someone else, but Li Zhi's fence-bearer. Li Zhi's arrival was indeed beyond Qin Shou's expectations. Seeing Li Zhi's serious expression, Qin Shou took this little prince directly to the ordinary living room.
As soon as he sat down, Li Zhi hurriedly explained his purpose: "Brother Shou, something big is wrong. Brother Xiaozhi conspired with Du He and Hou Junji last night to be a big rebellion. Xiaozhi accidentally passed by and learned the shocking news. Before that... Xiaozhi had no intention of helping him, so he had to come here to ask you, Brother Shou!"
"Are you serious about this?" Qin Shou was shocked when he heard Li Zhi's words and his face became gloomy. If what Li Zhi said was true, Chang'an, which seemed calm, was about to expose the bloody storm again. What's even more incredible is, how could the obviously dead people still live in the world? Or would they deceive the emperor or hide it?
Li Zhi nodded seriously, and then became cowardly and said in fear: "It's true, Xiao Zhi dares to joke about such a big thing? Xiao Zhi is just afraid that if Ru is true, what should I do? If Ru is false and afraid of offending the prince, Xiao Zhi would not dare to report to his father to find out without definite evidence!"
This time it was Qin Shou's turn to stop speaking. He analyzed the possibility of Li Zhi's words. Hou Junji, as a prince, does not have the demeanor of a prince, is ambitious and likes to flatter. He is an unreliable person and is a person who is close to the prince. Qin Shou does not want to participate in the battle between the prince.
The news brought by Li Zhi brought vigilance to Qin Shou. He seemed to think of something and think of something, but he was not sure for a moment, and he was silent for a while. He felt that the prince was too scheming and could not see through him. The most terrifying thing was the guy Hou Junji.
Qin Shou, who couldn't figure out the connection, drove away his mind's random thoughts and warned Li Zhi carefully: "Don't publicize this matter for the time being. Don't tell your father. As long as you continue to be your worry-free prince, don't care about anything, don't flatter, let alone attract your father's attention, and be a low-key person. Do you understand?"
"Okay!" Li Zhi nodded under Qin Shou's circulating teaching, and everything aimed at Qin Shou's words. Qin Shou's arrangement must have his intention. Li Zhi did not refute or suspicious. Li Zhi, who was timid and afraid of things, obeyed Qin Shou's arrangements and kept talking about these things indifferently to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
"By the way, Xiaozhi, has your uncle ever told you?" Qin Shou threw the matter aside for the prince for a while. Thinking of the matter of Changsun Yin, Qin Shou couldn't help but feel confused. The Changsun Yin people recently were too abnormal, so abnormal that Qin Shou could not see through what he wanted to do? What kind of sinister tricks did he have?
Li Zhi scratched his head in confusion and said, "Hmm? Uncle? No! Shou Ge'er. Why do you ask this? By the way, Shou Ge'er, is Sister Ling looking for you? You have to be careful! When Xiao Zhi stole out of the palace, he saw Sister Ling turning into men's clothing and said that he wanted to fight for you because of the eldest sister's business..."
‘My sister, can you make the news in time?’ Qin Shou suddenly felt speechless. The news about Li Zhi was really too slow. Princess Lamb had already come. If the news was earlier, Qin Shou might have been really grateful. Now, Qin Shouquan looks at it as a wind in his ears.
Qin Shou rubbed his forehead with headaches. Princess Lamb was really a headache when she made a fuss. Qin Shou, who was in a bad mood, waved his hand and said, "Okay. Okay. Shou Er talked about nonsense about toothache. I'll ask you something, how is your mother doing now? Tell me honestly, don't pretend to be stupid and confused with Brother Shou!"
Boss Li's strange behavior and generous behavior once again made Qin Shou unable to guess or understand. It is said that a good thing is not recruiting people. Boss Li came for the first time to tell him to waive his debts and announce Li Lizhi's marriage. Such a small thing that he came in person? Qin Shou felt that it was strange.
Boss Li’s abnormality is another big headache for Qin Shou. Logically speaking, he has a relationship with Empress Changsun. Empress Changsun is seriously ill and bedridden. He should stay by Empress Changsun’s side and have troubles every day. How could he have a smile like today? The biggest possibility is that Empress Changsun is fine, but that is impossible, right?
Qin Shou, who couldn't figure out the reason, had to catch Li Zhi in front of him to find out the news. If he didn't even know the news about his mother, that would be a real strange thing. If this is true, it would be one thing that Li Zhi might deceive him.
Speaking of Empress Changsun, Li Zhi immediately showed a sad expression and said, "My mother? Shou Ge'er, I'm going to tell you that Xiao Zhi is not very clear. Every time he visits his mother, he falls asleep, or the elder sister takes care of him, Shou Ge'er, why do you ask like this? Could it be that you have..."
Under Li Zhi's sad and longing gaze, the gaze was really pitiful. Qin Shouyan said insincerely: "No, no, I am so sad and perverted, um... I admire you can help, what do you mean? Shou Ge'er, I am not a miracle doctor, if you are sick, I go to the doctor of the Medicine King, Shou Ge'er, I am not a miracle doctor!"
Qin Shou waved his hand and left the trouble unrighteously. Qin Shou also wanted to help, but without the magic medicine, Ai Meng could not make the second golden elixir, so Qin Shou could not have a way to do it, so he directly ignored Li Zhi's depressed face.
Even Qin Shou had no choice but to have a depressed face. Li Zhi had no idea what to do if he wanted to help. He put aside his unhappy entanglement and thought of something and said, "Okay, Shou Ge'er, what should Xiaozhi do next? My uncle has recently started to deal with his second brother Li Tai. Is Xiaozhi still the same as before?"
Li Zhi suddenly came to tell the movements of Changsun Yin people, which made Qin Shou feel strange and surprised. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Li Tai? What tricks does this old Yin people play? Well, you should keep a low profile as before, listen to my arrangements for Shou Ge'er, keep you in the future..."
"Bold, do you dare to stop the Prince? Are you tired of living? Get out of here!" Before Qin Shou finished speaking, a dispute came from outside the ordinary living room. The loyal servants of the Qin family stopped the visiting people, but they did not know that the other party was extremely arrogant and wanted to hurt others. It made Qin Shou frown and displeased.
"Yuan Xiu, don't be rude! You are a guest passing by. Please inform me and say that I want to see Lord Qin if you have something to do!" Prince Li Chengqian's gentle and polite voice immediately stopped his subordinates' rudeness and arrogance. It made the servants guarding the door feel a little embarrassed. Qin Shou did not summon them and did not dare to break in rashly.
After hearing the voice of Prince Li Chengqian, Li Zhi's face suddenly turned blue and white. He was panicked and almost cried and said, "Oh, oh, it's the eldest brother. Shou Ge'er, what should I do? If he finds that Xiaozhi is with you, he will definitely cause trouble for Xiaozhi!"
Prince Li Chengqian is sinister and stingy. Li Zhi has already figured out his temper when dealing with him for many years. If others get what he cannot get, he will try his best to destroy it. It is so heartbreaking that Li Zhi suffers a lot, and he is already afraid of this prince who is behind the scenes of the matter.
Li Chengqian would not have been like this before he had foot disease, but after his foot disease changed drastically, he was even more tricky and insidious. Otherwise, his uncle Changsun Yin would not have abandoned the car and left things out of control. Changsun Yin would not have been in vain to hurt the spirits, which shows how hateful Li Chengqian is.
Li Zhi was as scared as an ant on the pot, and his figure was running around uneasy, making Qin Shou shook his head speechlessly and comforted, "Don't be impatient, what kind of morality is it to be flustered? When doing big things, you must know how to relax and relax, and be calm without fear of honor and disgrace. Oh~ Forget it, look at your lack of hope, embarrassment, hide from the screen behind you!"
"Oh. Oh... OK!" Li Zhi didn't care about Qin Shou's hurtful words. After Qin Shou pointed out the location of the screen, he ran over and hid, which made Qin Shou feel headache and rubbed his temples. Why hasn't this guy grown up yet? Without the support of Wu Meiniang in the past, I don't know if this guy can accomplish a big thing?
"Who is so noisy? Please come in!" Qin Shouquan pretended not to know who came outside, and said in an official voice that the servants outside would let go, poured out Li Zhi's tea and turned it around. Qin Shou had no intention of going out to greet him. Even if he knew that it was the prince's visit, he had no intention of selling his own tea. He was extremely comfortable.
"Mr. Qin, the Lone King takes the liberty to visit the mansion, I hope to forgive me!" When Li Chengqian entered the living room, he immediately bowed his hands and apologized with generous gifts. His handsome face looked as if he was disturbing the matter. He limped into Qin Shou's living room. His familiar politeness really made Qin Shou really unhappy.
Qin Shou was unhappy and was unhappy. He squeezed out a hypocritical smile, bowed his fists and returned the greeting, and said with a smile: "Where, where, the prince is visiting the humble house, it is Qin's honor. He has not been able to greet him in person. I hope the prince will forgive me. Qin is ashamed of the word "口", please give me tea!"
Qin Shou had no intention of getting up at all. He reached out and signaled Li Chengqian to sit down. After calling the maid to serve tea, the old god sat on the ground. Luoluo asked Li Chengqian to look at it. The Ming people did not do anything bad, and Qin Shou was not afraid of Li Chengqian coming to find fault. I guess he was not here to find fault.
The black hair is tied with a white ribbon and a snow-white silk. A long white silk ribbon is tied around her waist, and a piece of white mutton fat is tied to the top. The round gauze looks extremely good. Her eyebrows are long and slender and gentle eyes, her straight nose bridge, and her fair skin is like a piece of flawless jade to form a jade man. Even if she stands quietly behind Li Chengqian, she is still beautiful and has a unique charm and her charm is superior to Li Chengqian, giving people a strange sense of mistake.
If Qin Shou hadn't discovered that this person was a man, it would have been a misunderstanding. His Adam's apple confirmed his identity. It was just that Li Chengqian's new male favorite Yuan Xiu was so evil that Qin Shou mistakenly thought it was a woman dressed as a man. A big man used thrush and rubbed rouge, which was really a big appetite.
"Your Highness, please forgive Qin for taking the liberty. I don't know what the so-called "Your Highness is here?" Qin Shou withdrew his gaze and said something bluntly. What's wrong with the prince? With his current status, he doesn't have to go to him at all, let alone be afraid of him. He walked on his own Yangguan Avenue by his single-plank bridge.
"Bold, what's your attitude? How could you..." "Shut up!" Yuan Xiu was so angry that Qin Shou said boldly and rudely. When he spoke too much, he immediately greeted the angry Li Chengqian shouted. Li Chengqian had no idea what to do. This new male pet was so ignorant that he was so ignorant.
"Your Highness, he..." A crisp slap sounded, and the rampant Li Chengqian slapped the male favorite Yuan Xiu in the face, and he hated that this evil male favorite was ignorant. Even if he was just a first-timer, he should have known the current power of Chang'an. He was so angry that Li Chengqian was so angry that he wanted to kill people.
"Your Highness, Prince. Could it be that you came to Qin's mansion to show off how to train your subordinates?" Qin Shou raised his legs, crossed his legs without any scruples, and sneered bluntly. Yuan Xiu's slap was considered light. If it weren't for Li Chengqian's face, the rest of the people would dare to be so arrogant in their own land, so they would have dragged them out to beat the broken sticks.
"Mr. Qin, I am making you laugh. The Lord of the Lonely King is incompetent in teaching, so that he will not get out of this ugly way?" Li Chengqian smiled and turned his face so quickly that Qin Shou admired him. Yuan Xiu, who was so frustrated, covered his swollen face with one hand, felt comfortable and turned around and left, not daring to stay for a moment.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is here, I don't know what's the matter?" Qin Shou did not mean to show his goodwill to sell the bill, and directly picked up the tea cup and slowly savored the tea. Li Chengqian suddenly visited his home. This made Qin Shou feel uneasy, and he even realized that a weasel was not at ease to wish the chicken a happy New Year.
"What is this about Lord Qin? If the Lonely King has nothing to do, I can't come to talk about the past? Or does Lord Qin think the Lonely King is not worthy of getting along?" Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes, and had no intention of being angry at Qin Shou's lukewarm attitude, and deliberately nonsense and boring topics like interruptions.
Qin Shou was not in the mood to talk too much with Li Chengqian, put down the teacup and said bluntly: "How dare you? How dare you? It's just that Qin is busy with official business and just took a break from his busy schedule to catch the prince's time. Qin has important things to deal with. If the prince has something to do, just say it, Qin doesn't like it!"
Qin Shou said it very clearly. If you have farts, don’t delay here. When Li Chengqian arrived, Qin Shou guessed that this guy must be nothing good. In addition, with Li Zhi who informed him in advance, Qin Shou felt that Li Chengqian seemed to have made some big moves. As for what Qin Shou was unable to figure out for a while.
Under Qin Shou's frank and straightforward words, Li Chengqian laughed cheerfully, raised his thumbs up and praised, "Okay, since Lord Qin is so cheerful, Lord Gu doesn't talk nonsense. Lord Gu came here to negotiate business with Lord Qin this time. I wonder if Lord Qin can have any hidden things?"
‘It was indeed as expected!’ As soon as Li Chengqian said this, Qin Shou’s brows subconsciously jumped a few times, and he looked at Li Chengqian with a look of confusion. After Li Chengqian’s serious nod, Qin Shou shook his head and rejected Li Chengqian’s unrealistic thoughts. This guy is a dangerous person!
After Li Chengqian shook his head with displeasure, Qin Shou said frankly: "Your Highness the Prince is too worried. Although Qin cannot guarantee that every place in the mansion is very hidden, Qin can be honest with his conscience. If this place makes Your Highness the Prince feel uneasy, then there is no other place in the Qin mansion to be safe!"
Li Chengqian looked at Qin Shou half-believingly, and saw that Qin Shou was so persistent and couldn't force anything. He spoke directly: "It's okay, but it's not important. It's just that Gu Wangbin's guest is not a person from the Central Plains, but a Hu person. He has a business owner who likes iron tools. When he learned that the iron tools in our dynasty is precious, he wants to learn from Gu Wang's recommendation..."
Before Li Chengqian could finish his words, Qin Shou reached out and interrupted, "Wait, Your Highness, business belongs to business, but some things Qin wants to explain first, one, weapons are not under Qin's control, two, commercial matters are no longer tentacles, three, there are any matters that violate the emperor's custom-made iron tools registration matters, Qin dare not violate..."
"This..." Qin Shou's words almost made Li Chengqian vomit blood. This guy was clearly out of the matter. No, he should have not wading into his own muddy waters. Qin Shou did not take the bait? This made Li Chengqian very puzzled. He thought Qin Shou had no money to make something, so Li Chengqian had to grit his teeth and quote a higher price than the market.
Since Qin Shou was not deceived, Li Chengqian had to give up a big deal and tried to lure Qin Shou into the trap and said, "Mr. Qin, it's not like this, right? The lonely king and guest are not short of money. They really admire our dynasty's ironmaking technology and are willing to acquire a batch of ready-made soldiers at twice the market price..."
Qin Shou reached out and interrupted Li Chengqian again, shook his head and said regretfully: "Your Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood. Qin did not mean this. Weapons and other types are indeed not under Qin's control. Everything is registered by the Ministry of War. If Your Highness really needs weapons business, you can talk to the Ministry of War. Qin is coming from behind. Your Highness the Crown Prince, I will send you there soon!"
Qin Shou had already become secretly alert when he said this. The prince was talking about business for his guests and lobbyists. He really thought he was a mentally retarded person? Such a bad excuse was also a fault for Li Chengqian to say it out loud. Qin Shou, who had no intention of pestering too much, raised his glass to see him off, and was too lazy to bother with Li Chengqian too much, so as not to be able to explain it clearly.
Li Chengqian's face changed with a blush and a pale voice under Qin Shou's unceremonious voice. Finally, Shanshan clasped his fists politely and said, "Since that's the case, the Lonely King has disturbed it. This business is sure to make a profit and give it to you after the matter is completed. The Lonely King hopes that Lord Qin will take a good look and say goodbye!"
'Doesn't do each other, who do you want to fool with your little trick? Do you really think I am a second-generation mentally retarded? Even if you have a fake, you won't do business with you!" Qin Shou directly despised Li Chengqian's back as he left. While sneering in his heart, he thought of a very serious problem. What do Li Chengqian wants to buy weapons?
After Li Zhi came out, Qin Shou explained carefully: "Xiao Zhi, what happened today is in your heart. Your elder brother is ill-intentioned. Do you know if you don't know if you are involved in it? Pay close attention to your elder brother's movements in the future, be careful not to expose anything. You will be back later!"
After Qin Shou finished his instructions, he ignored Li Zhi, who was nodding his head and walked out of the ordinary living room. Li Zhi could not leave so quickly now. Li Chengqian could not say that he was secretly spy or something. When he discovered Li Zhi's whereabouts, he was in danger. Qin Shou felt that some shady hand was gradually emerging.
