Above the Bohai Sea, a lone sail floats on it. +¡ô
"If that thief Qin Hui dares to bully Meimei, I will make his whole family suffer a terrible death. Privy Councilor, please don't persuade me. It's useless to persuade me. No one can bully Meimei Privy Envoy, Privy Envoy."
"I'm listening, I'm listening."
Li Qi, who was lying on the deck and soaking in the sun, reluctantly opened his eyes, looked at Ma Qiao who was restless in front, and said with a wry smile: "I have no intention of stopping you!"
Ma Qiao pointed at Li Qi and said angrily: "Privy Councilor, you¡ª¡ªhow could you do this?"
"What about me?"
Li Qi asked curiously.
Ma Qiao said: "Now that Qiniang has been arrested, how can you still sleep? You¡ª¡ªyou are too heartless and unrighteous. It is not the behavior of a man."
Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Aren't we rushing to rescue? But this journey will take time. How about you go down and push the boat, maybe it will be faster."
"I'm not familiar with water, and it's not like you don't know."
"Depend on!"
Li Qi rolled his eyes and said seriously: "Ma Qiao, don't worry, the person they want to deal with is me. Based on my understanding of Qin Hui, he will not kill him easily until he completely defeats me. This It¡¯s politics, and there must be room for everything. Only reckless people will do those stupid things, so Qiniang and Meimei are safe before we go back.¡±
"Seriously?"
"Of course, my feelings for Qiniang are no worse than those of you and Meimei."
"Then you are still looking for so many ladies."
"! I feel like I can continue to sleep."
"do not!"
Ma Qiao hurriedly came to Li Qi's side and asked: "Privy Councilor, tell me honestly, are you sure of rescuing Meimei and Qiniang?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "You can just keep it in your stomach. Oh, you have to be careful with your words and deeds later and stop being impulsive. Otherwise, you may harm Meimei."
Ma Qiao kept nodding and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely listen to you this time. If you don't believe it, I can swear to God that as long as you can rescue Meimei."
At this moment, a guard came over and said, "Sir, we are here."
"Yeah?"
Li Qi stood up, raised his eyes and looked to the southwest, and saw ten warships lined up in the distance. A huge ship in the middle is particularly conspicuous.
I saw a small boat coming this way quickly. After a while, the small boat approached. A Forbidden Army guard on the boat clasped his fists and said, "We are here to pick up the Privy Envoy on the orders of the Emperor."
Li Qi smiled and said: "Your Majesty really takes care of me!"
Ma Qiao snorted: "He is obviously wary of us. He really uses the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman."
Li Qi turned his head and said gloomily: "As for Ma Qiao, you have listened to what I said."
Ma Qiao quickly covered his mouth.
It¡¯s true that a country is easy to change, but one¡¯s nature is hard to change! Li Qi shook his head. He went to the boat under Maqiao and jumped on the small boat. This boat could only accommodate three people at most. It was obvious that he told Li Qi. Don't try to bring more people there.
After receiving Li Qi, the boat immediately turned back and returned to the giant ship in the middle.
But when they were about to board the ship, a general blocked Li Qi and Ma Qiao's way. This person is none other than Bi Zhan. He cupped his fist at Li Qi and said, "Privy Councilor, Brother Ma, I'm so sorry."
Li Qi raised his hands high. He smiled and said, "I can understand, I can understand."
Ma Qiao didn¡¯t understand at first, but now he understood. He snorted, shook his sleeves, and dropped two daggers into Bi Zhan¡¯s hands.
Bi Zhan confiscated the two knives and said, "I'm really sorry."
Ma Qiao felt that his integrity was hurt and glared at Bi Zhan, "You."
Li Qi said: "Ma Qiao, do you still want to see Meimei?"
The Achilles¡¯ heel!
Meimei is Ma Qiao¡¯s Achilles¡¯ heel. He quickly raised his hand and urged: ¡°Hurry up, hurry up.¡±
Bi Zhan took matters into his own hands and searched the two of them carefully. He was relieved when he saw that there were no dangerous weapons.
Ma Qiao got on the deck and immediately shouted: "Beautiful, beautiful."
"Brother."
I saw Lu Meimei sitting on a back chair on the deck. Although they were married, Lu Meimei still used to call her Senior Brother Maqiao.
"Beautiful!"
When Ma Qiao saw Lu Meimei, he was overjoyed and hurried forward, but was blocked by Bi Zhan.
And Lu is beautifulThe two guards at the back also showed their swords.
Ma Qiao said angrily: "What are you doing?"
Bi Zhan said: "Brother Ma, please forgive me. Before the Emperor finishes talking to the Privy Council, we must use your lady to stop Brother Ma from doing something wrong. However, the Emperor asked me to tell you that no matter what happens, They won¡¯t hurt your lady.¡±
Ma Qiao said anxiously: "In that case, why don't you let me get close to Meimei?"
Li Qi said speechlessly: "Who calls you a master? They are afraid of you!"
Bi Zhan nodded awkwardly.
Ma Qiao repeatedly cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, I will never do anything random. I just want to see if Meimei is okay. Treat it as my begging."
He is so arrogant that he usually doesn¡¯t even bother to look at Bi Zhan, but for Meimei¡¯s sake, let alone begging for mercy, even if he is asked to kneel down, he won¡¯t think twice about it.
Lu Meimei said hurriedly: "Brother, don't worry, I'm fine."
Bi Zhan said: "You heard it."
At this time, a young eunuch walked out of the cabin. He walked to Li Qi and saluted: "Privy Envoy, the emperor invites you to come in."
Li Qi patted Ma Qiao on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Just stand here and talk to Meimei."
Although Ma Qiao was extremely angry, he did not dare to move rashly when he saw the two sharp swords behind Lu Meimei. His legs were still trembling.
A master? What a master of TM! Li Qi shook his head and followed the little eunuch into the cabin. It was very empty, with only six or seven people. One person sitting in the middle was naturally Zhao Kai. There was another person standing behind him, it was Qin Hui. He lowered his head and eyebrows, and put his hands into his sleeves. , and there were four guards on both sides. In addition, there was another person sitting below, and this person was Bai Qiannuo.
"Husband!"
"Qiniang."
Bai Qiannuo saw Li Qi coming in. He immediately got up and ran over, diving into Li Qi's arms.
The couple hugged each other. After a while, Li Qi let go, wiped away the tears on Qiniang's face, looked down at Bai Qiannuo, and said, "Are you okay?"
Bai Qiannuo raised her delicate face and said, "I'm fine."
Li Qi nodded with a smile, raised his head and said to Zhao Kai above: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of my wife these days. I can't thank you enough."
Zhao Kai picked up a cup of tea. He took a sip, expressionless, and ignored Li Qi.
Li Qi didn't pay attention and said to Qiniang: "I've wronged you. Let me handle the rest. You go outside and watch Ma Qiao first. Don't let him mess around."
Bai Qiannuo nodded and said, "Be careful."
Li Qi snorted.
Bai Qiannuo glanced back and saluted Zhao Kai. Then he walked out, Zhao Kai and Qin Hui didn't stop him. As long as Li Qi was there, they didn't pay attention to the others.
After she went out. Li Qi took a step forward and saluted: "The humble minister Li Qi is here to see the emperor."
Zhao Kai was silent for a while, then turned his head and looked at Li Qi. His eyes were very complicated, "Don't you think it would make you look hypocritical to say this now?"
Li Qi said calmly: "Businessmen are all hypocritical. After all, wouldn't it be weird to give gifts to many people?"
"That's true. You've always been like this." Zhao Kai nodded and asked: "You've already left, why are you coming back?"
Li Qidao: "As a husband, it should be normal for him to take his wife home."
"go home?"
Zhao Kai asked with a half-smile: "Which home should you go back to? Bianliang? Or ¡ª¡ª Japan?"
Li Qi sighed and said: "Since the emperor already knows, why bother to ask the minister again?"
"I just don't understand, so I'm asking you."
Zhao Kai snorted and said: "I have not only said once that I will never forget your help to me. I also think that I treat you well. In fact, I have known for a long time that you want to betray me, and there is solid evidence." , It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t believe it, but I have always had expectations for you, hoping that you can change your mind. Since you know that this is a dead end, and you still know how to come back to save the economic envoy, it shows that you are not an ungrateful person, and I will give you opportunities again and again. , why do you still want to betray me?"
Li Qi sighed: "Everyone has his own ambitions."
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions."
Zhao Kai sneered and said: "When people in the world rebel, they can all use their own ambitions to liberate themselves. Your reason is a bit too simple. It is difficult to convince others, and it is even harder for me to forgive you."
Li Qi thought for a moment and said, "The prince and general Xiang Ning have the guts."
"You finally spoke your mind."
Zhao Kai shook his head and said: "Li Qi, Li Qi, you are really cunning. You first used monetary strategy to explain the importance of gold and silver, and then used Japan's gold and silver to induce me to send troops to attack Japan. Yes, I will send troops." I gave you food, but I helped you make a wedding dress. Very good, very good. Your wishful thinking is really good! However, a wise man will always make mistakes. You never expected that Wang Fu's cousin would hide away. In Japan, I accidentally broke your good deeds and came back to tell me everything about Japan."
"I see, I told you why it was so easy to succeed. It turns out that the emperor had already sent someone to monitor my wife."
"But you are not bad either. I set up a dragnet in Tokyo, but only caught the economic envoy. In fact, you don't have to come back."
"If I don't come back, how can the emperor let me leave so easily? The emperor clearly predicted that I would come. Alas, it seems that everyone in the world knows that my weakness is that I am too dedicated."
Zhao Kai laughed and said: "No one is perfect, that's what you said."
"Yes, that's what I said." Li Qi smiled, raised his head and said, "But when I helped the emperor take over the world, I never said that my efforts were only to help the emperor with your marriage. Clothes."
"I knew you would say that."
Zhao Kai said: "Yes, I do owe you a lot, and I will try my best to meet any of your requests, but except for this point, you should have heard this saying, how can I allow others to snore next to the bed? If I am just an ordinary person Man, even if I risk my life to repay your kindness, I will never frown. But I am the emperor. Have you ever seen an emperor send troops to help his ministers become emperor? If that is the case, then wouldn¡¯t I become the emperor? Big joke."
Li Qidao: "I dare not say that your words are wrong, Your Majesty. Maybe from your perspective, I am indeed heinous, but everyone has different values. I am a businessman, and my efforts must be rewarded. I have paid for the Song Dynasty." So much, I don¡¯t think there¡¯s anything wrong with what I did, I just took back what I deserved in return, and even now, I don¡¯t feel ashamed of the emperor or anyone.¡±
"I am so disappointed that you still haven't repented until now."
"Your Majesty, do you think there is still a way for me to turn back?"
Li Qi looked directly at Zhao Kaidao.
Zhao Kai narrowed his eyes and said, "Then don't blame me for being ruthless. This is all your own choice."
Li Qi smiled and said: "I will never blame the emperor for being ruthless, nor do I think that the emperor owes me anything, nor do I think that the emperor is wrong. In fact, there is never right or wrong in politics, only victory or defeat. However, I think Let me remind you, Your Majesty, you won¡¯t know who will win or who will lose until the last minute.¡±
Zhao Kai laughed and said: "I want to see how you can turn defeat into victory now."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dagger was suddenly pressed against his back.
Zhao Kai was suddenly startled and turned his head in disbelief. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
