Quick Wear: Crazy Criticism of Villains Asking for Stickers

Chapter 262 The Prime Minister is arguing with the Regent again 11

Li Qing: “…” I don’t accept what you said.

"Which of us is stingy? If it was you, then give me 20 taels for the trip!"

"You can't blame me for this. My wife took all the money in my house. The 20 taels were my private savings that I saved for a year. I gave it all to you. I didn't even dare to go to a restaurant for dinner that year!"

Prefect Cai pursed his chubby belly, wiped his tears, and looked at Xie Zhao expectantly: "Your Majesty, I have been tortured for several days, and I am a little hungry."

Xie Zhao looked at the handkerchief in his hand. Humph, I don’t even have Qingqing’s handkerchief yet, but you’re using it first: “Starve!”

"Qingqing, let's go." Xie Zhao took Li Qing's hand and they walked out of the prison together. Except for Governor Cai, only their own people were left in the prison. Xie Zhao let go of her hand only when they reached the door.

The two of them returned to their expressions of disapproval of each other.

Xie Zhao glanced at the Dali Temple official and said, "Since he refuses to confess, let's keep him locked up for now. It won't matter to the Prime Minister anyway. I'm very busy recently, so we'll talk to him when I have time."

This sentence implies that there is no need to deal with the Chief Justice. The Regent is dissatisfied with the Prime Minister and just wants to know that he is wronged, so he is too lazy to help him find the real culprit behind the incident.

"No need to trouble Your Highness. I'm afraid that you will accuse me of some false charges while investigating!" Li Qing snorted coldly, shook his sleeves, and left with his hands behind his back, looking very angry.

The Dali Temple official looked at this and then looked at that. The Prime Minister was becoming more and more arrogant. He decided to listen to the prince: "I obey your order."

As soon as Li Qing walked out of the Dali Temple, he was stopped by the carriage of the King of Qin. Xie Feng lifted the curtain with one hand and asked with a smile: "Does Lord Li have time? Let's chat at Zuihua Tower."

Li Qing got on Xie Feng's carriage. When Xie Zhao came out, the carriage had turned the corner of the intersection and only his back was left. He was so jealous that he kicked the stone lion at the door.

Everyone present: “…” The Regent really hates the Prime Minister.

Magistrate Cai, who saw the two of them holding hands in prison, sighed in the chaos.

How terrible! The prime minister is not only the King of Qin's man, but also favored by the regent. He is a two-faced person. No wonder he could sit in that position for so long. Can I still survive if I know the truth?

In the private room on the second floor of Zuihualou.

Xie Feng was discussing Prefect Cai with Li Qing: "The person behind this has not been found yet. I wonder who is targeting us?"

Many people in the court noticed that the prime minister was close to the King of Qin. Li Qing was falsely accused of corruption. It was very likely that someone wanted to weaken Xie Feng's power:

"Jin Tang, do you think it was the Emperor's uncle who did it? No, if he did it, he wouldn't have found evidence for you. This is even more wrong. We are enemies with the Emperor's uncle, so why did he help you on the day of the trial?"

Xie Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Li Qing with a puzzled expression. Will the Prime Minister betray him?

Li Qing calmly drank a sip of tea and said, "The Regent wants to use this matter to win over this humble minister."

"Oh? What did you talk about in prison?"

"I pressed the question about the person behind Prefect Cai, but failed to find out. Then the Regent asked me if I was willing to join his camp, but I did not agree."

"You really didn't agree?"

Xie Feng stared into his eyes, trying to find signs of lying in the Prime Minister's eyes. Li Qing looked at him calmly. With the self-cultivation of a double agent, his lies would not be discovered.

After a long while, Li Qing smiled and ended the other party's scrutiny: "Don't worry, Your Highness, Prince Qin, I will always stand by your side."

Those fox eyes were so beautiful. Xie Feng remembered that his wife's eyes were very similar to the Prime Minister's, especially when they were in bed... The King of Qin took a sip of tea with a flustered look to cover his red ears:

"Lord Li, I know you are good-looking, but remember, don't seduce me!"

Li Qing: “…” Beating people is against the law, I will endure it.

"Smiling is seduction? Your Majesty, don't believe it!"

"What is Puxin?" Xie Feng didn't quite understand the word and asked for advice humbly.

"You have more prestige than ordinary people. I praise you!"

Xie Feng didn't know what to say for a moment. The Prime Minister really liked him. What should he do? If he rejected him directly, the Prime Minister might turn his love into hatred and join the Emperor's uncle!

How about... he sacrifices his looks? Oh, this is a huge sacrifice!

Xie Feng stared at Li Qing carefully for a while, then spoke carefully:

"Lord Li, let me make it clear to you first. I can only accept you to the extent of holding hands with you. Also, our affair must not be spread out. The princess is jealous and will scratch me to death if she gets angry."

Li Qing finally couldn't bear it anymore and splashed a cup of cold tea on his face: "Your Majesty, wake up, I don't like you!"

Xie Feng: “!!!” He is so bold, he splashed water on me, he actually splashed water on me, it’s true that love turns to hate!

"Li Qing! You..."

"I still have family matters to take care of. Goodbye!"

Xie Feng: “…” What a courage!

"You...I...this..."

"Bang——" the box door was slammed shut in response. Xie Feng was so angry that he slammed the table. The secret guard appeared in front of him and asked if he wanted to deal with the Prime Minister.

"What do you want to solve? That's my purse." Xie Feng breathed a sigh of relief. A real man can bend and stretch. I will be patient for now and deal with Li Dadan after he takes the throne!

Secret guard: “???” Is this the legendary… As long as you do a good job and are strong, you can put on a show over your boss’ head?

Xie Feng certainly wouldn't endure it in vain: "Let the storyteller write more about the romantic affairs of Prime Minister Li and Su Shaoqing, be bold and explicit, write about the garden, corridors, rockery... write as much as you can, remember, this is the Prime Minister!"

Secret guard: “…” What a childish way of revenge.

Li Qing left Zuihualou and walked along the street towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion was returning from the Dali Temple and did not wait for him at the entrance of Zuihualou. Since this place was not far from his home, he just went shopping.

As he walked, he was thinking about the feud between him and Marquis Anguo, which should be related to the fact that the original owner broke the leg of Marquis Anguo's son.

In this matter, Li Qing could only say that they deserved it.

The original owner had brought his nephews and nieces to the Fayin Temple outside the city to burn incense, and the prince of Anguo Marquis teased Li Xiaoya.

The original owner had his servants hold the prince down, picked up a wooden stick and broke his legs, then threw him back to the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion, very arrogantly.

Marquis Anguo only had a title but no real power, so he didn't dare to confront the original owner and had no choice but to swallow his anger. For the sake of his niece's reputation, the original owner did not spread the news.

He didn't expect that the other party had been holding a grudge and came up with this method to deal with him.

The Marquis of Anguo, who is completely useless and relies on his ancestors for protection, is nothing to be feared.

I heard that they even married the prince to a girl from the richest family in Jiangnan. On the one hand, they looked down on merchants' families, and on the other hand, they used other people's dowries to fill the vacancies in the mansion. Isn't that disgusting!

"Prime Minister, you're back? The Minister of Revenue, Lord Yu, is waiting for you in the reception room." Seeing him come in, Butler Wu hurriedly told him about the visitor.

Li Qing turned and walked to the reception room. When he entered the room, he saw a box of gifts on the floor. "What do you mean, Lord Yu? I am honest and upright and will not accept bribes."
