I'm a marquis in Datang

He is not only Du Qi's subordinate, but also regards himself as Du Qi's follower.

Without Du Qi, there would be nothing he has now.

Du Qidao: "It's okay, it's just a title. By the way, you must make it clear that you can't make any mistakes. After all, His Majesty will be there when the time comes."

Zhang Jingping said: "Young master, don't worry, I have never revealed any information about you from the beginning to the end. I just told him that I am willing to help him redress his grievances so that his daughter will not die in vain. So he doesn't know anything, he only knows that he will go to the son to redress his grievances the day after tomorrow." .”

Du Qi nodded and said: "Yes, your arrangement is very good. All the plans are to minimize the leakage of information

In order to avoid the leakage of information. "

After arranging things, Du Qi turned and left.

After he brought Liu Zhengxi back, he stayed at the mansion most of the time and rarely went out.Taking advantage of this time, Liu Zhengxi had already arranged to send 50 guan of money to the Qin Palace.In addition, the location of the bank branch established in Chang'an has also been selected, and craftsmen will soon be recruited for decoration.

Two days passed in a flash.

This day, early in the morning.

It was still snowing heavily, and even the weather was colder than the previous few days.The cold wind blows on the face, as if a knife has been scraped

So, extremely uncomfortable.Du Qi came out with a scarf covering his face, boarded the carriage, and took off the scarf wrapped around his face.

Fortunately, wearing a down jacket, even if the cold wind blows into the carriage, it will not affect anything.

When the carriage arrived at the restaurant, Du Qi went straight to the backyard.

Today, it's just a matter of waiting.

After Si time, the sky was bright and the snow was still flying.Because the restaurant does not provide breakfast, in the morning, the restaurant is deserted and no one comes.But when it was almost noon, many people came to eat.

In today's restaurants, even in winter, there are many people ordering food.Of course, the best business is the hot pot and beef soup pot not far from next door. This is the best business in cold weather.

This is also a branch of the restaurant.

Du Qi was waiting in the backyard, and the bottom of the hot pot had already been brought.

This is mandarin duck pot.

Du Qi sat aside, waiting quietly.Not long after, an attendant from the restaurant came in to report that Li Yuan had arrived.Du Qi got up and went to greet him, but just as he left the yard, he met Li Yuan who went straight in.

Du Qi stepped forward to salute, but Li Yuan shook his head and said: "Erlang, it's not the first time I've come to the restaurant. Besides, this is a private visit in a micro-service, it doesn't involve government affairs, so you don't have to be so restrained."

Du Qi responded with a smile, but he led Li Yuan to the yard self-consciously.

The soup pot was already boiling.

Du Qi ordered his attendants to serve the dishes, and he saw plates of meat, tofu, vegetables, etc. brought in, and all kinds of dishes were fully arranged.Seeing that Xiao Li was still standing behind Li Yuan, Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, it's cold today, and you don't feel cold after eating hot pot. You see, let Director Xiao sit down and eat together, anyway, there are so many people."

When Xiao Li heard it, his expression didn't change, but when he looked at Du Qi, there was a trace of kindness.

Du Qi never discriminated against him because he was an eunuch. Although Du Qi was only a matter of one word, to Xiao Li, he cared very much.

Li Yuan thought for a while, then said: "How about this, let Xiao Li eat with your entourage. At this time last year, I also

It is to eat with you, let Xiao Li and your followers eat. "

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Du Qi nodded and asked Liu Jian to arrange it immediately.

Together with Liu Jian, Morado, Liu Zhengxi and Xiao Li, the four brought the bottom of the pot to boil again.

Du Qi put down the same dishes, first served Li Yuan with food, and then ate by himself.In the cold weather, eating hot pot is extremely comfortable, and it is a joy to feel warm all over.

Li Yuan admired while eating.

This taste is really good.

Li Yuan and Du Qi also drank some wine, and the atmosphere became more harmonious after three rounds of wine and five flavors.

"Tread! Tread!"

A burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the yard.

It was Zhong Laoba who entered. Zhong Laoba came to the courtyard, first saluted Li Yuan, then looked at Du Qi, nodded slightly, obviously something was going on.

Du Qi ordered: "Go down first, and deal with things after I'm free."

"Yes!"

Zhong Laoba got the order, turned around and walked out.

"Wait a minute!"

Li Yuan gave an order.

When Zhong Laoba heard this, he stopped quickly and turned to stand up.

Li Yuan looked at Zhong Laoba and asked, "If I remember correctly, your name is Zhong Laoba, right?"

"Yes!"

Zhong Laoba said: "Your Majesty's eyes are like torches."

Li Yuan nodded, then turned to look at Du Qi, and asked, "Erlang, you don't even ask what it is, do you have to wait for the follow-up to deal with it?"

Du Qi put down his chopsticks, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty, you are here, and whatever matters you have to deal with him will wait for the follow-up. Wait a while, it will be all right."

Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "I'm not here today as an emperor, but just as a guest. So you don't have to care about how I think about it. If you have something to deal with, just deal with it first."

Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, it's all about the size of a sesame seed, it doesn't matter."

Li Yuan turned to look at Zhong Laoba, and said, "Just tell me what's going on."

Zhong Laoba said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there are people calling for grievances outside the restaurant, saying that they want the young master to uphold justice. Outside this restaurant, people come from time to time, betting that the young master is in the restaurant, and hope that the young master will come forward. After all, the young master is in Chang'an, so it is considered to be a crime." have

A man with a face. "

Du Qi ordered: "Lao Ba Zhong, you arrange a guard to escort the complainant to the county government office, and ask County Magistrate Du to deal with it. The affairs of Chang'an County will be arranged by County Magistrate Du."

After finishing speaking, Du Qi looked at Li Yuan and said, "Your Majesty, when I entered the palace the day before yesterday, didn't I tell you that many people came to seek justice from me? It's fine once or twice, but after a long time, it will be too much. It's troublesome. Nowadays, I transfer many things to the county government, and I ask County Magistrate Du to arrange it."

Li Yuan stroked the beard under his chin and said, "You are right. After all, this is the duty of the Chang'an County Magistrate. It is most appropriate to hand it over to the Chang'an County Magistrate."

After a pause, Li Yuan said: "However, today I am visiting privately in Weifu. If this matter is involved, I will just meet up. Anyway, I have nothing to do when I come today."

Du Qidao: "Your Majesty has this elegance, that is the blessing of the common people."
