spring and autumn officials
Chapter 32 Soft and Slippery!
"Respect!"
The soldiers of the Huben army rushed up quickly, and the torches spread in the courtyard of the Taifu's mansion, enveloping Qi Lv in an instant.
Qi Lu squinted his eyes, but for a moment he couldn't understand what Guo Gongji's father was saying.
Qi Lu didn't panic, he quickly calmed down and said, "Mr. Guo, poison? Where did you start?"
Guo Gongji's father said coldly: "If you still want to avenge your grievances, let's talk about it after entering the jail."
As he spoke, he waved his hand again, and the soldiers of the Huben Army immediately twisted Qi Lu up. Qi Lu didn't struggle or resist, and was quickly sent to the carriage.
He had ridden in countless carriages, but this time was different, he did not go to the palace, but to the dark and damp Luoshiyu.
bang——
Qi Lv was pushed into the cell by the guard, and then the guard slammed the door of the cell hard.
Qi Lv staggered from being pushed, quickly stabilized his figure, and held onto the cell wall. His hands were covered with humidity. Unlike the heat of summer, the prison was very gloomy and there was no sunlight all year round. Therefore, even in summer, it was "Summer resort".
Qi Lv turned his head and looked outside the prison cell. Guo Gongji's father was dressed in black armor, standing tall and straight, with a sword in one hand, squinting at Qi Lv.
Qi Lu said: "Mr. Guo, can you accommodate me and let Lu see the emperor?"
"To see the emperor?" Guo Gongji's father said coldly: "Then we have to wait for the emperor to wake up."
Qi Lv frowned, and Guo Gongji's father didn't talk to him too much, he immediately turned around, strode out of the prison with "treads", and quickly mobilized his troops to leave, leaving only the cold air of a cell.
There were many guards walking around outside. They looked at Qi Lv very cautiously. Some people whispered, "When the court is Taifu, do they all like to rebel? First Zhou Gong, then Qi Taifu ?”
"Hey, you don't know, how much power does the Tai Tuo have? That's something we pawns can't think of."
"Just keep an eye on him!"
"That's right, I heard that the Son of Heaven was poisoned and he hasn't woken up yet. If the Son of Heaven really can't wake up... Tsk."
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes, did not speak, turned around and walked a few steps into the cell, found a relatively clean and dry place, and sat on the floor.
Not long after Qi Lv sat down, he heard the sound of "tattling" footsteps. He thought it was Guo Gongji's father who came back again. He is also an acquaintance of Qi Lu.
It's General Wei, Shi Hou!
Shi Hou walked in from the outside with his hands behind his back, with a smile on his face, a hooked nose and hooked lips, his smile was more terrifying than not smiling, with a terrifying aura, he stood outside the cell door with a low voice His voice echoed in the damp cell, and he said faintly: "Teacher Qi didn't expect that the first person to visit Taifu Qi was actually Hou."
Qi Lu was sitting on the ground, sitting on the ground, although he had been reduced to a prisoner, but the whole person looked calm, as if sitting in his own yard, there was no difference, he raised his head to look at Shi Hou, his expression was quite calm.
Nodding his head, Qi Lu said: "Indeed, Lu didn't expect that the first person who came to visit Lu in the prison was actually General Shi..."
Qi Lu still had something to say, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, General Shi's eyes and ears are very good. When Lu entered the prison, you chased him in. I really admire him."
Shi Hou squinted his eyes, and the smile that was so easy to do just now suddenly froze a bit, but he quickly recovered his smile and said, "Teacher Qi, Hou came here today to visit Taifu Qi, and to... The widow is coming."
"Widow Monarch" means a dignitary in the country, a humble name for his own monarch. Although Shi Hou's expression is lofty, he is still very humble in words and deeds, but the content of humility is a bit high.
Shi Hou stood outside the prison gate, with his hands behind his back, and continued, "I heard that Taifu Qi was wronged, and I couldn't bear it. How could a loyal minister like Taifu Qi be punished by the emperor?" What about poison? However...the evidence is conclusive, no wonder the emperor doesn't believe in Grand Tutor Qi."
These few words of Shi Hou were just soliciting dissension, firstly saying how much Wei Zhouxu loved Qi Lu, and secondly trying to sow discord between Qi Lu and Ji Lin, saying that Ji Lin didn't trust Qi Lu.
Shi Hou also said: "Your Majesty couldn't bear to see Taifu Qi in deep trouble, so I specially ordered Hou to come to persuade him. As long as Taifu Qi is willing to follow me and serve my country in the future, I am ready What a dead man, he can take the blame for Taifu Qi at any time. Once the dead man pleads guilty, Taifu Qi can be exonerated, and return to Weiguo with the widow to enjoy the glory and wealth. It is better than serving a young child here The Son of Heaven is much stronger, don’t you think so?”
Hearing this, Qi Lv nodded and laughed. He was born gentle, but sometimes he just acts like a fool, and if he laughs politely, let alone, he has a sense of superiority, no matter whether it is true or not. , the appearance is like.
Qi Lu nodded, Shi Hou thought it would be so easy to win Qi Lu over, but Qi Lu said the next moment: "Lü understands, General Shi is here to persuade you to surrender, right?"
Shi Hou smiled lightly, his voice was very hoarse, and said: "Teacher Qi Bingxue is smart and has a delicate and clear heart, so there must be no need for Hou to waste his words? Taifu Qi is right, and Hou is here to persuade him to surrender. Although today's son is young and looks friendly, he is actually a wolf that has not smelled blood. Once this wolf has meat and tastes meat, you say, Mr. Qi, he will be a vegetarian obediently Is it?"
Qi Lv also laughed and said, "You're right, isn't there a saying that goes like this, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Which monarch in the world is a vegetarian? But even if the emperor wants to eat meat Wild wolves are much stronger than Wei Junzi, a worthless wild dog, right?"
A wild dog, Qi Lu actually directly said that Wei Zhouyu was a wild dog.
"Qi Lu..." Shi Hou didn't get angry when he heard him slandering his monarch so much. Instead, he smiled happily and said, "You have such sharp teeth, Hou loves to see you more and more."
Qi Lu said lightly: "I'm really sorry, to tell you the truth, the people who came to the Taifu's mansion to say goodbye these days have all lined up from the Gaomen of the palace to the city gate of Luoshi. There are many people who love to see Lu. , if General Shi also has the same meaning, you have to line up first."
Under Qi Lu's nonchalant ridicule, Shi Hou's face finally couldn't hold back, and his smile slowly faded away, and he said in a hoarse and cold voice: "It seems that you don't plan to surrender?"
Qi Lu didn't speak, just sat on the ground and straightened his clothes, and raised his eyebrows at Shi Hou.
Shi Hou nodded, and said: "What should be said, Hou has already said, since Taifu Qi is so stubborn, there is no other way, but Hou is born with a soft heart, I am afraid that Taifu Qi will be killed in this dark prison. Feeling lonely, I specially sent Qi Taifu a companion."
As he spoke, he beckoned, and a few soldiers behind him immediately pushed and pushed a thin child in, "Go in!" After he finished speaking, he opened the door of the cell and pushed the child in.
The slender child, at most three or four years old, was pushed by the soldiers and almost fell to the ground. Qi Lu hurriedly hugged him, hugged Xiaodoubao in his arms, and looked down, it was Qi Guogong's son Jiu!
Qi Lu immediately frowned, put away his foolish smile, and said in a cold voice, "General Shi, what do you mean by arresting a child?"
Shi Hou smiled faintly, and said: "Qi Taifu poisoned and murdered, so the second son of Qi State also has a share?"
Qi Lu squinted his eyes, and he suddenly remembered that when he was making small chicken soup wontons for Ji Lin, he did meet the second son of Qi State. Although the son Jiu was young, he was very sensible, so he helped Qi Lu with his son. Made wontons.
So this crime of poisoning is also punished by the young master.
Shi Hou smiled and said, "It's really kind of you to let the second son of Qi come to accompany Qi Taifu."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and strode away, leaving behind only a series of arrogant laughter.
Qi Lu hurriedly checked Young Master Jiu, and said, "Second Young Master, are you okay? Did Shi Hou treat you harshly?"
Young Master Jiu shook his head in a dignified manner, and said, "It doesn't matter."
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes and said, "I didn't think about it, but the Second Young Master was implicated."
The young master rectified his tumbled robes, despite his young age, he spoke in an orderly manner, and said, "Wei Zhouyu was very ambitious, and I heard that Jiu was with his adoptive father at that time, so he couldn't wait to let Shi Hou come over to the hall. Post question."
Young Master Jiu was indeed in the dining room at the time, so it was difficult to get rid of his involvement, and Qi Hou Lufu had no choice but to let Wei Zhouyu take him down arrogantly.
Young Master Jiu said again: "Not only Jiu, but all the cooks in the dining room have also been taken down."
Qi Lu frowned, and suddenly "Ah!" He sneezed, because it was too damp here, and it was hot outside, and he was sent here after a bumpy journey. Qi Lu's body was weak during the cold and heat, so it was inevitable that he would slap him sneeze.
Young Master Jiu took off his little outer robe immediately, put his feet on Qi Lu's shoulders, and said, "Father, it's cold in the prison, be careful of catching cold."
Young Master Jiao is really sensible, entered the jail at such a young age, he didn't panic at all, and he also knew how to care about Qi Lu's body, he was really moved by Qi Lu.
At this moment, a voice said: "You dare to stop me?! Do you know who I am? If you offend me, you will be so cute that you can't even eat a bird!"
Qi Luben was moved, but suddenly he was stunned. Even if Qi Lu didn't see this milky voice, this cute pronunciation, as long as he heard the voice, he would recognize it. Isn't it just a future show of power and dominance? Is Qi Huangong, the number one overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period?
Today's Duke Huan of Qi is still a little beanbag, three years old, cute and cute, he speaks with a big tongue, and he can't walk very well, but he already knows how to show off his official power.
Soon, I heard the prisoner's apology: "You should die, you should die, you have offended the young master of Qi, you really deserve to die."
Young Master Xiaobai's voice said: "You know me, don't get out! I want to visit the prison."
"Yes, Young Master Qi, this side please, this side, be careful where you step..."
Soon, the footsteps of "da da da" came, and I saw Xiaobai, the little bun boy. Next, walked in swaggeringly.
He walked in, stood at the door of the cell, waved his hands, full of official airs, raised his chin, and said in a childish voice: "You can step back, you are not allowed to come without my son's summons." Eavesdropping, did you whisper!"
"Yes, my honorable servant!" The prisoners didn't dare to offend the nobles of the Qi country, they all left the cell in a hurry, leaving only young master Xiaobai talking to Qi Lu and young master Jiu.
When the prisoners had all retreated, Young Master Xiaobai stood on the spot with his hands behind his back, turned his head and leaned his body, and looked around for a long time to make sure that the prisoners were really gone, then he suddenly let go of the chubby hand behind his back , immediately ran over staggeringly, plunged into the young master's arms, and shouted in a childish voice: "Erguokuo! You are fine!"
Young Master Jiu was almost bumped by the rushing Xiaodoubao. Although he was slightly taller than Young Master Xiaobai, in the final analysis, Young Master Xiaobai had a "strong" body, while Young Master Jiu was slender and somewhat weak.
Qi Lu hurriedly caught the two little bean buns without letting them fall to the ground.
Young Master Jiu said, "Xiaobai, why are you here?"
The son Xiaobai immediately said: "Father Jun asked Xiaobai to come! Father Jun asked Xiaobai to visit Erguokuo and Yifufu! It is said that Xiaobai is young, and Father Jun came here by himself. I am afraid that the salted fish in Wei will Stop more!"
Wei that salted fish?
The monarch of the Wei State is called Wei Zhouyu, and he is indeed a salted fish. Qi Lu almost couldn't laugh or cry. I have to say that the young master Xiaobai is really complaining, God sums it up, essence, unique!
Qi Lu coughed and said, "Young master, what's the situation outside now?"
Young Master Xiaobai frowned decently, shook his little head, his fleshy cheeks twitched, and said: "The emperor is critically ill. The medical officers are all tied up in the Lu palace. It is said that the illness is very serious. The specific matters are small." Bai Buji said... oh yes! Today's government is controlled by Duke Zhou, so ungrateful as Duke Zhou is, he is the one who asked people to throw his adoptive father and father into prison, hmph, ungrateful scoundrel!"
As Young Master Xiaobai said, he stomped his feet vigorously, his little face flushed red with anger.
Qi Lu just listened, but he was not anxious at all, instead he said comfortingly: "You two don't have to worry too much."
The young master Xiaobai crossed his arms, with his fleshy little arms inserted, looked around the prison cell in a decent manner, with disgust written all over his face, and said: "How can Xiaobai not be in a hurry, How can this dilapidated cell be a place for people to live? Hmph! The adoptive father and Erguoguo are not healthy, living here is going to be sick!"
Qi Lv couldn't hold it back anymore, rubbed the fleshy face of the future leader of the Spring and Autumn Period, and said, "Little Bai, don't worry..." Before he could finish his last words, he heard Young Master Jiu say lightly: "Brother I will take good care of my adoptive father."
Qi Lu: "..."? ? ?
Dare to ask Second Young Master, are you talking the wrong way, Qi Lu thought to himself, obviously he is taking care of Second Young Master.
In the end, the young master Xiaobai still nodded in a decent manner, twitching his nodding cheeks, and said, "Yeah! There is Erguoguo to take care of his adoptive father and father, so Xiaobai can rest assured!"
Qi Lu: "..." The two young masters don't talk to themselves, listen to Lu!
Young Master Xiaobai was still dissatisfied, frowned, and said: "No, Xiaobai still has to go to the pawn ceremony, and I need to give some benefits to the prisoners, lest they treat the father-in-law and the second-hand pot harshly."
Qi Lv was in a cold sweat. He didn't realize that young master Xiaobai could already know how to play pianing at such a young age. He thought back when he was three years old... I'm sorry, I really can't remember, I don't have such an early memory, maybe Still playing with mud.
Young Master Xiaobai then summoned the prisoners, again with a very dignified look, "Gudong!" He threw something out of his sleeve and threw it in front of the soldiers, when Qi Lu saw it, his eyeballs almost popped out. For anything else, it's gold!
The young master Xiaobai shot very generously, raised his chin, and said: "This is a reward for you. Needless to say, the people in the prison, one is the Taifu who is the emperor, and the other is my son's second pot." Guo Guo, now Tai Tuo and Er Guo Guo are being framed by traitors, the emperor is wise and will find out the truth soon, and then he will release Tai Tuo and Er Guo Guo out of prison, you should understand the twists and turns."
The prisoners looked at each other, and heard the young master Xiaobai say again: "I am serving you well. When the Tai Tuo and Erguo get rid of their grievances and come out of the jail, you will be welcome. I'm just afraid that some short-sighted people will not have this Fufen, do you understand me?"
"Shh..." It wasn't Qi Lu trying to tear down the stage, it was Young Master Xiaobai's style and aura, which were really overwhelming. Qi Lu couldn't hold back, and actually laughed out loud, and quickly covered his mouth.
The prisoners also felt that it made sense, and hurriedly agreed: "Yes, my ministers have remembered it, I have remembered it, thank you, Young Master Qi, for reminding me."
"Yeah." Young master Xiaobai said "hmm" in a very dignified manner, and said: "My son will return it soon. This is your hard-earned money. If you let me know, who is the one who is yin and yang? People, hum!"
The sound of snort, so cute and cute, scared the soldiers and hurriedly said: "I don't dare, I definitely don't dare."
After the young master Xiaobai made the ceremony, he said to Qi Lv, "Is there something for the father-in-law that Xiaobai needs to do?"
Qi Lu thought for a while and said, "Then I will trouble the young master to go into the palace and see how the emperor is in person, okay?"
Young master Xiaobai nodded vigorously, and said, "Yeah! Xiaobai has exactly that intention! Xiaobai is going now, Erguokuo, you have to take good care of your adoptive father and father!"
As he spoke, he waved his little fleshy hand, and left in a hurry without giving Qi Lu a chance to defend himself.
Qi Lv looked at the back of the son Xiaobai who was staggering away, and said silently, Xiaobai, don't worry, the adoptive father will definitely take care of the second brother for you...
Prince Xiaobai came out of the shackles, "climbed" onto the carriage, and said, "Don't go back to the posthouse, go directly to the palace."
"Yes, son." The cavalry slave didn't dare to disobey, and immediately went to the palace gate.
In the dormitory on the way, the medical officer knelt all over the floor.
The sky has already brightened, and it has been one night since the news of the emperor being poisoned. All the medical officers have entered the palace overnight and are waiting for orders in the road bedroom. After the medical officer and sergeant entered, they have not come out. They just saw the eunuch die from time to time. Running out of the bedroom on the road, shouting something.
"Hurry up! Go get a basin of water!"
"The Son of Heaven is vomiting blood again!"
"What are you doing! Hurry up!"
Young Master Xiaobai entered the palace, the bus station was already full of courtiers who came to visit the emperor, when Young Master Xiaobai came to the Lu Palace, he saw a group of eunuchs and court ladies in a mess, running constantly, in a hurry, Some collided with each other, and blood spilled all over the ground.
The son Xiaobai entered the main hall of the Lu Palace, and he saw the emperor Ji Lin lying on the couch, his face was pale and weak, his lips were bloodless, his breathing was very weak, and blood was still hanging on the corners of his lips. No end, for fear of doing something wrong.
Zhou Gong Hei Jian and Guo Gong Ji's father were both in the Lu bedroom, and they did not leave for a moment.
Young Master Xiaobai walked in, frowned, Duke Zhou bowed his hands politely and said, "Young Master Qi, why are you here?"
Young Master Xiaobai said: "Xiaobai came to visit the emperor's condition."
He also said: "Xiaobai heard that Taifu Qi and Xiaobai's two pots were captured by the order of Duke Zhou. Wouldn't Duke Zhou also believe that it was Taifu Qi who poisoned and assassinated the emperor?"
Duke Zhou Heijian looked at the busy crowd, and said calmly, "Who can say for sure about this?"
Young Master Xiaobai pursed his mouth, seemed very angry, and said: "Duke Zhou, what are you talking about? Taifu Qi is loyal to the emperor, doesn't Duke Zhou know? Taifu tried his best to protect the emperor, and sent the emperor to ascend the throne. I know better than anyone else! Kuang Xiaobai said something ugly. Today, Duke Zhou was able to stand here and talk to Xiaobai. It was thanks to Taifu Qi who was able to protect Zhou Gong. ?! Does Duke Zhou want to be an ungrateful villain who will repay his kindness!?”
Duke Zhou Heijian's expression was still indifferent, no matter what son Xiaobai said was bad or nice, he couldn't impress him, he just said: "Young master of the state of Qi, what you said is wrong, the court's affairs don't show kindness at all. "
"You!" Young Master Xiaobai said with trembling fingers, "Why don't you show kindness! I think you want to control the government! Get rid of Qi Lu and hurry up!"
Duke Zhou lowered his head with black shoulders, his eyebrows and eyes were bright, and there was a faint smile on his lips. Although the smile was very shallow, it reached to the bottom of his eyes, and it made people feel chilling for no reason.
Duke Zhou Heijian said in a consistent tone: "Young master of the state of Qi, Tong Yan has no taboos. Today, he is critically ill and needs to be quiet. Please come back, young master."
"Let go of me! Let go of me! Let me go!"
The young master Xiaobai kicked his short legs, and his legs left the ground. He was dragged out of the bedroom by the Huben army.
Zheng Ji also heard about Qi Taifu's rebellion, so she came to Lu's bedroom early in the morning, firstly to visit her doctor, and secondly, she also wanted to know what was going on.
She hurried to the entrance of Lu's palace, and happened to see a few young princes from the Qi Kingdom, Xiaobai, leaving under the support of several Huben soldiers, she couldn't help frowning, and walked over quickly.
When Zheng Ji came in, the Son of Heaven had just taken the decoction brewed by the medical officer and sergeant himself, his complexion did not ease, he was vomiting blood all the time, and his mind became a little clearer.
Zheng Ji was startled when she saw Ji Lin's pale face. Now that she is young, she doesn't even have a wife, let alone an heir, and the emperor's uncle just "died of illness", although Zheng Ji is just a foster child A woman in a deep boudoir, but she also understands that once the emperor dies and the Zhou royal family has no heir, the world will inevitably fall into chaos.
Zheng Ji came to the bed and said respectfully: "Ji pays homage to the emperor, and hopes that the emperor is well."
Ji Lin was lying on the couch, very weak. She squinted her eyes and waved her hands, as if signaling Zheng Ji to get up. Zheng Ji did not leave after saluting, as if she had something to say, hesitated for a while, and finally spoke.Once he opened his mouth, his voice became very hasty, and he said: "Son of Heaven, Taifu Qi is a loyal person, helping the emperor ascend the throne, and the world can learn from his loyalty. Even Ji, a weak woman who doesn't understand anything, can see Taifu Qi Fu's loyalty, Ji doesn't believe it, the emperor, you can't see Qi Taifu's loyalty, there must be someone else who poisoned the emperor, please think twice!"
Ji Lin squinted his eyes, and suddenly gave a soft chuckle "hehe", and said, "Okay, Qi Lu, okay... What kind of psychedelic soup did Qi Lu give you to call you one by one, Mr. Guo?" , Young Master Qi, cough...cough cough...and Sister Ji, you all came to intercede for him? Cough—"
As he spoke, Father Guo Gongji, who was standing guard by the couch, bowed his head. Although he was ordered to capture Qi Lv, he indeed pleaded with the emperor after he came back, because Father Guo Gongji really didn't believe it. , Qi Lu wanted to murder the emperor.
Firstly, Qi Lu was the one who helped Ji Lin ascend the throne, if he wanted to murder the emperor, why not help him?
Secondly, Qi Lu is not bad-hearted, on the contrary, he is very kind. In this highly hierarchical royal palace, Qi Lu seldom treats slaves as human beings.
Thirdly, Qi Lv is very afraid of trouble, what is the most troublesome thing in this world, of course it is a desperate thing.
How could such a Qi Lu suddenly poison the emperor suddenly?
Zheng Ji still didn't give up, and said: "Son of Heaven... Taifu Qi is your master, don't you trust him?"
"Ah--"
Ji Lin laughed again for no reason. He lay on the steps, with a pale smile on his lips, and a trace of self-mockery in his eyes, and said, "The widow...just trusts him too much."
After finishing speaking, Ji Lin closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to say anything more.
Zheng Ji wanted to talk again, but she had no chance, so she could only leave Yan Dynasty and leave the palace worried.
Compared with the chaos in the palace, in the prison, it became more and more peaceful.
Qi Lu was sitting on the ground well, but since he had nothing to do and no entertainment, he was completely bored, and Qi Lu couldn't maintain his official airs anymore, so he lay down on his back with a "gudong" and tilted his head Legs, that movement is very indecent.
The young master rubbed his forehead, covered Qi Lu's body with the tunic that had rolled down, and said, "Father, it's cold on the ground. If you lie down, be careful of the wind and cold."
Qi Lv waved his hand and said, "It's too bad, I'm too tired from sitting, and my waist hurts. It's better to lie down."
He said, patted the place next to him, and said, "Come on, Second Young Master, can you lie down and try?"
Young Master Jiu didn't seem to want to lie down, he disliked the dirty ground, but after standing for a while, he was finally tired, after all he was not very old, so he lay down next to Qi Lu, one big and one small, two They were lying side by side, and together they were covered with Mr. Jiu's small robes.
Young Master Jiu looked at Qi Lu sideways, and said curiously, "Father, you are in trouble, so you are not in a hurry?"
Qi Lu said lightly: "What's the use of being anxious? It will only add to your troubles. It's better to think about what you will have for lunch today."
Qi Lv smiled and said: "Hey, if I knew I would be imprisoned, I should have asked Hei Jian about the food in the prison."
Young Master Jiu shook his head helplessly, and said, "It will definitely not be too good."
Just as he was talking, the prison guard came over with food in his hand.When lunch was served at noon, Qi Lu turned over and sat up immediately. Needless to say, because the prison did not have three meals a day, and there was no breakfast at all, Qi Lu was already hungry and was waiting for the meal.
The prisoner brought the food over and put it on the floor of the cell. Qi Lvding frowned when he saw it. The food...
Or is it done by Young Master Xiaobai?
A handful of hard-looking rice, rice is indeed a good food in this era, but this rice is obviously leftover.
In addition, there are some meat residues and pickle residues that are not fresh in color. In short, these vegetables and rice are really not very attractive, and it can be seen at a glance that they are definitely leftovers.
Seeing Qi Lu staring at the food bitterly and bitterly, the prisoner said, "Teacher Qi, there is nothing wrong with the ministers. The young master of the Qi State has let go, and we ministers dare not treat you two harshly, nor will you." Sneaking food for the two of you, take a look, even the ministers also eat like this, the two of you... just take care of yourself!"
Qi Lv saw that the prison guards did not lie, nor did they steal their food, which was not bad, because Qi Lu and Young Master Jiu’s meals were the same as those of the prison guards, they were all leftovers. No taste, no appetite.
Qi Lv stared at those vegetables and rice in a daze, and suddenly raised his eyebrows. Although he was in prison, eating is the top priority, and he must not be neglected. In life, eating is the top priority, so he said: "This vegetable and rice, Lv It can be remodeled."
"Reform?" The guards looked at each other, not knowing what it meant.
Can leftovers be transformed?Is it possible that the leftovers can be turned into some delicious food?
Qi Lu said with a smile: "If everyone is not afraid of the poison of the law, the law can indeed transform these leftovers, not to mention the delicacy, but there is no problem in eating them smoothly."
The prisoners looked at each other even more, and said, "Teacher, you are joking. The ministers are all pariahs. How can I bother you to poison them?"
The status of these prisoners is not high, and Qi Lu has no grievances or enmity with them, so naturally he will not have the motive of poisoning. Besides, the prisoners often hear that Qi Taifu cooks delicious food. The Taifu's meals are delicious, and I don't want to eat them again.
Now when the prisoners heard this, they couldn't help but move their index fingers.
Qi Lu then said: "Come on, let me dictate your recipes, and just take these dishes and rice and make some changes."
Qi Lu was in prison, so he couldn't go out to prepare meals by himself, but the meal he made was very simple, and it was very filling, and it was very satisfying to eat, and that was—golden omelet rice!
The rice is the leftover rice, which tends to harden when it is left over. Fried rice is just the right kind of leftover rice, with distinct grains and just right.
The leftovers are some meat scraps and pickled vegetable scraps. These things are fried just right in the rice. The outside is covered with a layer of golden egg skin. The egg is soft and slippery. Covering the fried rice, it is both delicious and beautiful. .
The prisoner got the recipe, and immediately brought down all the meals, even the meals of the prisoners, and quickly went to process them.The omelet rice is very easy, and it was completed in a short time. The leftovers that were poorly presented just now, and the leftovers that made people lose their appetite, instantly turned into golden omelet rice.
The yellow egg skin is covered on the rice. At a glance, it is impossible to tell that it is fried rice. It looks soft, smooth and elastic. The visual enjoyment of the egg skin makes people feel a sense of happiness.
The prisoners didn't even realize that the pitiful leftover rice just now transformed into such a beautiful one. With a simple dagger, all the golden egg skins were lightly touched, and "suddenly—" a gust of steam came out, steaming There is a scent.
Stir fry the rice, meat dregs, and pickled vegetables together to create a scent. The smell of pickled vegetables and meat dregs permeates into the rice, and the taste is different. It is much more vivid than the taste of vegetables and rice. .
Qi Lu brought the omelet rice that he and Young Master Jiu shared, and the two of them sat on the floor of the cell and began to enjoy the modified lunch.
The egg skin is soft and tough, slippery and elastic, and the entrance is slippery. Qi Lu thought that if you eat omelet rice, the moment you cut the egg skin is extremely ritualistic. Seeing the hot steam coming out, you don’t need to eat it. , will feel very satisfied.
"good to eat!"
"Eat it delicious! Xiaochen didn't know that the leftovers are so delicious!"
"This egg skin... is absolutely perfect! It really is perfect!"
The prisoners ate heartily, and Qi Lu and Young Master Jiu ate very happily. When everyone was eating, someone came to visit the prison again. It wasn't Young Master Xiaobai, but...Wei Zhouxu.
Wei Zhouxu had a feud with Qi Lu, and was humiliated by Qi Lu again and again. This time when Qi Lu was imprisoned, he wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Qi Lu, to see Qi Lu kneeling on the cell floor in such a state of desperation. The appearance of eating leftovers.
The leftovers were sent over by Wei Zhouyu.
how do you know...
Wei Zhouyu walked in from the outside with a proud face, and before he reached the cell, he smelled a fragrant smell. You must know that this place is a prison, and it is a good thing that there is no smell. Fragrant smell?
This taste is even more delicious than the beef that Wei Zhouyu ate for lunch today, with an indescribable taste that makes people move their index fingers and seduces Wei Zhouyu's taste buds that are eager to move.
He strode in and took a look, just in time to see Qi Lu enjoying the golden omelet rice. The egg skin is moist and smooth, the rice grains are distinct, the fried meat is fragrant, and the pickles enhance the flavor just right.
Qi Lu happened to scoop up the last mouthful of omelet rice with the skin of the egg with a small dagger, "Wow!" Putting it into his mouth, it was a satisfaction. He was a little full, but he didn't want to waste it, so he still had to bite the bullet ate up.
Wei Zhouyu did not expect that what he saw was such a scene, he said coldly: "Teacher Qi is different, did not expect to be so comfortable in prison?"
Qi Lu smiled lightly, and said: "He's in prison, and he's learned. Lu didn't do anything wrong, so he eats well. Thank you Mr. Wei for your concern."
"Hmph!" Wei Zhouyu said coldly, "Qi Lu, let me see how long you can be proud!"
He said, walked into the door of the cell, and said with a very low voice, with a chuckle: "Yes, don't worry, maybe the emperor will come to accompany you soon."
After finishing speaking, Wei Zhouyu laughed "haha" without going into details, and walked away in a very rampant way.
Luoshi Palace, inside the bus department.
"Get out of the way! Don't you have eyes?! Didn't you see that this is the car of the king of Wei?"
The slave-riding dog yelled at Doctor Qing loudly, and soon Wei Zhouyu swaggered down from the cart, straightened his sleeves, and said, "The weather is so good today, I'm afraid it's an auspicious day! "
"Yes, your lord is exactly what you said!" The riding slave immediately flattered him.
A black shadow came from a distance. The black shadow was tall, dressed in military uniform, with a sword on his waist, and several tall and strong followers followed behind him.
It was General Wei, Shi Hou.
Shi Hou came over, cupped his hands to Wei Zhouxu and said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready, Your Majesty can enter the bedroom... to visit the sick."
"That's right!" Wei Zhouyu laughed and said, "What are you waiting for?! Hurry up and visit Gu Jinlu's bedroom!"
Many doctors and officials in the palace were there, queuing up to visit the emperor. At this moment, the crowd suddenly became agitated. A few black-armored soldiers lined up the crowd, pushing and shoving the doctors and doctors, pushing a way, and Weizhou called for stool. Swaggeringly drove into the road bedroom from the outside.
Shi Hou, dressed in black armor, stood up straight, and said coldly to the senior officials, "My widow is here to visit the sick, please come back another day."
Clearance!
Wei Zhouxu came to visit and even cleared the venue. The doctors and officials complained in their hearts, but Shi Hou brought a few warriors with him, they didn't dare to challenge them, so they all left the palace angrily.
Soon, the Lu bedroom became quiet, and Wei Zhouyu, with an uncontrollable smile on his face, strode towards the most noble imperial room in the Lu bedroom.
When the eunuch saw Wei Zhouyu, he wanted to help spread the word, but Wei Zhouyu pushed the eunuch away and said, "Go away! I want to have an audience, can you small ministers stop me? Get out!"
As Wei Zhouxu said, he suddenly pushed open the door of the Taishi, and walked in very arrogantly.
In the imperial room, the emperor Ji Lin was lying on the couch with a pale face, Zhou Gong Heijian and Guo Gongji's father stood by, and the medical officer knelt down on the ground. Seeing the sincere and frightened appearance, one could tell
The soldiers of the Huben army rushed up quickly, and the torches spread in the courtyard of the Taifu's mansion, enveloping Qi Lv in an instant.
Qi Lu squinted his eyes, but for a moment he couldn't understand what Guo Gongji's father was saying.
Qi Lu didn't panic, he quickly calmed down and said, "Mr. Guo, poison? Where did you start?"
Guo Gongji's father said coldly: "If you still want to avenge your grievances, let's talk about it after entering the jail."
As he spoke, he waved his hand again, and the soldiers of the Huben Army immediately twisted Qi Lu up. Qi Lu didn't struggle or resist, and was quickly sent to the carriage.
He had ridden in countless carriages, but this time was different, he did not go to the palace, but to the dark and damp Luoshiyu.
bang——
Qi Lv was pushed into the cell by the guard, and then the guard slammed the door of the cell hard.
Qi Lv staggered from being pushed, quickly stabilized his figure, and held onto the cell wall. His hands were covered with humidity. Unlike the heat of summer, the prison was very gloomy and there was no sunlight all year round. Therefore, even in summer, it was "Summer resort".
Qi Lv turned his head and looked outside the prison cell. Guo Gongji's father was dressed in black armor, standing tall and straight, with a sword in one hand, squinting at Qi Lv.
Qi Lu said: "Mr. Guo, can you accommodate me and let Lu see the emperor?"
"To see the emperor?" Guo Gongji's father said coldly: "Then we have to wait for the emperor to wake up."
Qi Lv frowned, and Guo Gongji's father didn't talk to him too much, he immediately turned around, strode out of the prison with "treads", and quickly mobilized his troops to leave, leaving only the cold air of a cell.
There were many guards walking around outside. They looked at Qi Lv very cautiously. Some people whispered, "When the court is Taifu, do they all like to rebel? First Zhou Gong, then Qi Taifu ?”
"Hey, you don't know, how much power does the Tai Tuo have? That's something we pawns can't think of."
"Just keep an eye on him!"
"That's right, I heard that the Son of Heaven was poisoned and he hasn't woken up yet. If the Son of Heaven really can't wake up... Tsk."
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes, did not speak, turned around and walked a few steps into the cell, found a relatively clean and dry place, and sat on the floor.
Not long after Qi Lv sat down, he heard the sound of "tattling" footsteps. He thought it was Guo Gongji's father who came back again. He is also an acquaintance of Qi Lu.
It's General Wei, Shi Hou!
Shi Hou walked in from the outside with his hands behind his back, with a smile on his face, a hooked nose and hooked lips, his smile was more terrifying than not smiling, with a terrifying aura, he stood outside the cell door with a low voice His voice echoed in the damp cell, and he said faintly: "Teacher Qi didn't expect that the first person to visit Taifu Qi was actually Hou."
Qi Lu was sitting on the ground, sitting on the ground, although he had been reduced to a prisoner, but the whole person looked calm, as if sitting in his own yard, there was no difference, he raised his head to look at Shi Hou, his expression was quite calm.
Nodding his head, Qi Lu said: "Indeed, Lu didn't expect that the first person who came to visit Lu in the prison was actually General Shi..."
Qi Lu still had something to say, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, General Shi's eyes and ears are very good. When Lu entered the prison, you chased him in. I really admire him."
Shi Hou squinted his eyes, and the smile that was so easy to do just now suddenly froze a bit, but he quickly recovered his smile and said, "Teacher Qi, Hou came here today to visit Taifu Qi, and to... The widow is coming."
"Widow Monarch" means a dignitary in the country, a humble name for his own monarch. Although Shi Hou's expression is lofty, he is still very humble in words and deeds, but the content of humility is a bit high.
Shi Hou stood outside the prison gate, with his hands behind his back, and continued, "I heard that Taifu Qi was wronged, and I couldn't bear it. How could a loyal minister like Taifu Qi be punished by the emperor?" What about poison? However...the evidence is conclusive, no wonder the emperor doesn't believe in Grand Tutor Qi."
These few words of Shi Hou were just soliciting dissension, firstly saying how much Wei Zhouxu loved Qi Lu, and secondly trying to sow discord between Qi Lu and Ji Lin, saying that Ji Lin didn't trust Qi Lu.
Shi Hou also said: "Your Majesty couldn't bear to see Taifu Qi in deep trouble, so I specially ordered Hou to come to persuade him. As long as Taifu Qi is willing to follow me and serve my country in the future, I am ready What a dead man, he can take the blame for Taifu Qi at any time. Once the dead man pleads guilty, Taifu Qi can be exonerated, and return to Weiguo with the widow to enjoy the glory and wealth. It is better than serving a young child here The Son of Heaven is much stronger, don’t you think so?”
Hearing this, Qi Lv nodded and laughed. He was born gentle, but sometimes he just acts like a fool, and if he laughs politely, let alone, he has a sense of superiority, no matter whether it is true or not. , the appearance is like.
Qi Lu nodded, Shi Hou thought it would be so easy to win Qi Lu over, but Qi Lu said the next moment: "Lü understands, General Shi is here to persuade you to surrender, right?"
Shi Hou smiled lightly, his voice was very hoarse, and said: "Teacher Qi Bingxue is smart and has a delicate and clear heart, so there must be no need for Hou to waste his words? Taifu Qi is right, and Hou is here to persuade him to surrender. Although today's son is young and looks friendly, he is actually a wolf that has not smelled blood. Once this wolf has meat and tastes meat, you say, Mr. Qi, he will be a vegetarian obediently Is it?"
Qi Lv also laughed and said, "You're right, isn't there a saying that goes like this, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Which monarch in the world is a vegetarian? But even if the emperor wants to eat meat Wild wolves are much stronger than Wei Junzi, a worthless wild dog, right?"
A wild dog, Qi Lu actually directly said that Wei Zhouyu was a wild dog.
"Qi Lu..." Shi Hou didn't get angry when he heard him slandering his monarch so much. Instead, he smiled happily and said, "You have such sharp teeth, Hou loves to see you more and more."
Qi Lu said lightly: "I'm really sorry, to tell you the truth, the people who came to the Taifu's mansion to say goodbye these days have all lined up from the Gaomen of the palace to the city gate of Luoshi. There are many people who love to see Lu. , if General Shi also has the same meaning, you have to line up first."
Under Qi Lu's nonchalant ridicule, Shi Hou's face finally couldn't hold back, and his smile slowly faded away, and he said in a hoarse and cold voice: "It seems that you don't plan to surrender?"
Qi Lu didn't speak, just sat on the ground and straightened his clothes, and raised his eyebrows at Shi Hou.
Shi Hou nodded, and said: "What should be said, Hou has already said, since Taifu Qi is so stubborn, there is no other way, but Hou is born with a soft heart, I am afraid that Taifu Qi will be killed in this dark prison. Feeling lonely, I specially sent Qi Taifu a companion."
As he spoke, he beckoned, and a few soldiers behind him immediately pushed and pushed a thin child in, "Go in!" After he finished speaking, he opened the door of the cell and pushed the child in.
The slender child, at most three or four years old, was pushed by the soldiers and almost fell to the ground. Qi Lu hurriedly hugged him, hugged Xiaodoubao in his arms, and looked down, it was Qi Guogong's son Jiu!
Qi Lu immediately frowned, put away his foolish smile, and said in a cold voice, "General Shi, what do you mean by arresting a child?"
Shi Hou smiled faintly, and said: "Qi Taifu poisoned and murdered, so the second son of Qi State also has a share?"
Qi Lu squinted his eyes, and he suddenly remembered that when he was making small chicken soup wontons for Ji Lin, he did meet the second son of Qi State. Although the son Jiu was young, he was very sensible, so he helped Qi Lu with his son. Made wontons.
So this crime of poisoning is also punished by the young master.
Shi Hou smiled and said, "It's really kind of you to let the second son of Qi come to accompany Qi Taifu."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and strode away, leaving behind only a series of arrogant laughter.
Qi Lu hurriedly checked Young Master Jiu, and said, "Second Young Master, are you okay? Did Shi Hou treat you harshly?"
Young Master Jiu shook his head in a dignified manner, and said, "It doesn't matter."
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes and said, "I didn't think about it, but the Second Young Master was implicated."
The young master rectified his tumbled robes, despite his young age, he spoke in an orderly manner, and said, "Wei Zhouyu was very ambitious, and I heard that Jiu was with his adoptive father at that time, so he couldn't wait to let Shi Hou come over to the hall. Post question."
Young Master Jiu was indeed in the dining room at the time, so it was difficult to get rid of his involvement, and Qi Hou Lufu had no choice but to let Wei Zhouyu take him down arrogantly.
Young Master Jiu said again: "Not only Jiu, but all the cooks in the dining room have also been taken down."
Qi Lu frowned, and suddenly "Ah!" He sneezed, because it was too damp here, and it was hot outside, and he was sent here after a bumpy journey. Qi Lu's body was weak during the cold and heat, so it was inevitable that he would slap him sneeze.
Young Master Jiu took off his little outer robe immediately, put his feet on Qi Lu's shoulders, and said, "Father, it's cold in the prison, be careful of catching cold."
Young Master Jiao is really sensible, entered the jail at such a young age, he didn't panic at all, and he also knew how to care about Qi Lu's body, he was really moved by Qi Lu.
At this moment, a voice said: "You dare to stop me?! Do you know who I am? If you offend me, you will be so cute that you can't even eat a bird!"
Qi Luben was moved, but suddenly he was stunned. Even if Qi Lu didn't see this milky voice, this cute pronunciation, as long as he heard the voice, he would recognize it. Isn't it just a future show of power and dominance? Is Qi Huangong, the number one overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period?
Today's Duke Huan of Qi is still a little beanbag, three years old, cute and cute, he speaks with a big tongue, and he can't walk very well, but he already knows how to show off his official power.
Soon, I heard the prisoner's apology: "You should die, you should die, you have offended the young master of Qi, you really deserve to die."
Young Master Xiaobai's voice said: "You know me, don't get out! I want to visit the prison."
"Yes, Young Master Qi, this side please, this side, be careful where you step..."
Soon, the footsteps of "da da da" came, and I saw Xiaobai, the little bun boy. Next, walked in swaggeringly.
He walked in, stood at the door of the cell, waved his hands, full of official airs, raised his chin, and said in a childish voice: "You can step back, you are not allowed to come without my son's summons." Eavesdropping, did you whisper!"
"Yes, my honorable servant!" The prisoners didn't dare to offend the nobles of the Qi country, they all left the cell in a hurry, leaving only young master Xiaobai talking to Qi Lu and young master Jiu.
When the prisoners had all retreated, Young Master Xiaobai stood on the spot with his hands behind his back, turned his head and leaned his body, and looked around for a long time to make sure that the prisoners were really gone, then he suddenly let go of the chubby hand behind his back , immediately ran over staggeringly, plunged into the young master's arms, and shouted in a childish voice: "Erguokuo! You are fine!"
Young Master Jiu was almost bumped by the rushing Xiaodoubao. Although he was slightly taller than Young Master Xiaobai, in the final analysis, Young Master Xiaobai had a "strong" body, while Young Master Jiu was slender and somewhat weak.
Qi Lu hurriedly caught the two little bean buns without letting them fall to the ground.
Young Master Jiu said, "Xiaobai, why are you here?"
The son Xiaobai immediately said: "Father Jun asked Xiaobai to come! Father Jun asked Xiaobai to visit Erguokuo and Yifufu! It is said that Xiaobai is young, and Father Jun came here by himself. I am afraid that the salted fish in Wei will Stop more!"
Wei that salted fish?
The monarch of the Wei State is called Wei Zhouyu, and he is indeed a salted fish. Qi Lu almost couldn't laugh or cry. I have to say that the young master Xiaobai is really complaining, God sums it up, essence, unique!
Qi Lu coughed and said, "Young master, what's the situation outside now?"
Young Master Xiaobai frowned decently, shook his little head, his fleshy cheeks twitched, and said: "The emperor is critically ill. The medical officers are all tied up in the Lu palace. It is said that the illness is very serious. The specific matters are small." Bai Buji said... oh yes! Today's government is controlled by Duke Zhou, so ungrateful as Duke Zhou is, he is the one who asked people to throw his adoptive father and father into prison, hmph, ungrateful scoundrel!"
As Young Master Xiaobai said, he stomped his feet vigorously, his little face flushed red with anger.
Qi Lu just listened, but he was not anxious at all, instead he said comfortingly: "You two don't have to worry too much."
The young master Xiaobai crossed his arms, with his fleshy little arms inserted, looked around the prison cell in a decent manner, with disgust written all over his face, and said: "How can Xiaobai not be in a hurry, How can this dilapidated cell be a place for people to live? Hmph! The adoptive father and Erguoguo are not healthy, living here is going to be sick!"
Qi Lv couldn't hold it back anymore, rubbed the fleshy face of the future leader of the Spring and Autumn Period, and said, "Little Bai, don't worry..." Before he could finish his last words, he heard Young Master Jiu say lightly: "Brother I will take good care of my adoptive father."
Qi Lu: "..."? ? ?
Dare to ask Second Young Master, are you talking the wrong way, Qi Lu thought to himself, obviously he is taking care of Second Young Master.
In the end, the young master Xiaobai still nodded in a decent manner, twitching his nodding cheeks, and said, "Yeah! There is Erguoguo to take care of his adoptive father and father, so Xiaobai can rest assured!"
Qi Lu: "..." The two young masters don't talk to themselves, listen to Lu!
Young Master Xiaobai was still dissatisfied, frowned, and said: "No, Xiaobai still has to go to the pawn ceremony, and I need to give some benefits to the prisoners, lest they treat the father-in-law and the second-hand pot harshly."
Qi Lv was in a cold sweat. He didn't realize that young master Xiaobai could already know how to play pianing at such a young age. He thought back when he was three years old... I'm sorry, I really can't remember, I don't have such an early memory, maybe Still playing with mud.
Young Master Xiaobai then summoned the prisoners, again with a very dignified look, "Gudong!" He threw something out of his sleeve and threw it in front of the soldiers, when Qi Lu saw it, his eyeballs almost popped out. For anything else, it's gold!
The young master Xiaobai shot very generously, raised his chin, and said: "This is a reward for you. Needless to say, the people in the prison, one is the Taifu who is the emperor, and the other is my son's second pot." Guo Guo, now Tai Tuo and Er Guo Guo are being framed by traitors, the emperor is wise and will find out the truth soon, and then he will release Tai Tuo and Er Guo Guo out of prison, you should understand the twists and turns."
The prisoners looked at each other, and heard the young master Xiaobai say again: "I am serving you well. When the Tai Tuo and Erguo get rid of their grievances and come out of the jail, you will be welcome. I'm just afraid that some short-sighted people will not have this Fufen, do you understand me?"
"Shh..." It wasn't Qi Lu trying to tear down the stage, it was Young Master Xiaobai's style and aura, which were really overwhelming. Qi Lu couldn't hold back, and actually laughed out loud, and quickly covered his mouth.
The prisoners also felt that it made sense, and hurriedly agreed: "Yes, my ministers have remembered it, I have remembered it, thank you, Young Master Qi, for reminding me."
"Yeah." Young master Xiaobai said "hmm" in a very dignified manner, and said: "My son will return it soon. This is your hard-earned money. If you let me know, who is the one who is yin and yang? People, hum!"
The sound of snort, so cute and cute, scared the soldiers and hurriedly said: "I don't dare, I definitely don't dare."
After the young master Xiaobai made the ceremony, he said to Qi Lv, "Is there something for the father-in-law that Xiaobai needs to do?"
Qi Lu thought for a while and said, "Then I will trouble the young master to go into the palace and see how the emperor is in person, okay?"
Young master Xiaobai nodded vigorously, and said, "Yeah! Xiaobai has exactly that intention! Xiaobai is going now, Erguokuo, you have to take good care of your adoptive father and father!"
As he spoke, he waved his little fleshy hand, and left in a hurry without giving Qi Lu a chance to defend himself.
Qi Lv looked at the back of the son Xiaobai who was staggering away, and said silently, Xiaobai, don't worry, the adoptive father will definitely take care of the second brother for you...
Prince Xiaobai came out of the shackles, "climbed" onto the carriage, and said, "Don't go back to the posthouse, go directly to the palace."
"Yes, son." The cavalry slave didn't dare to disobey, and immediately went to the palace gate.
In the dormitory on the way, the medical officer knelt all over the floor.
The sky has already brightened, and it has been one night since the news of the emperor being poisoned. All the medical officers have entered the palace overnight and are waiting for orders in the road bedroom. After the medical officer and sergeant entered, they have not come out. They just saw the eunuch die from time to time. Running out of the bedroom on the road, shouting something.
"Hurry up! Go get a basin of water!"
"The Son of Heaven is vomiting blood again!"
"What are you doing! Hurry up!"
Young Master Xiaobai entered the palace, the bus station was already full of courtiers who came to visit the emperor, when Young Master Xiaobai came to the Lu Palace, he saw a group of eunuchs and court ladies in a mess, running constantly, in a hurry, Some collided with each other, and blood spilled all over the ground.
The son Xiaobai entered the main hall of the Lu Palace, and he saw the emperor Ji Lin lying on the couch, his face was pale and weak, his lips were bloodless, his breathing was very weak, and blood was still hanging on the corners of his lips. No end, for fear of doing something wrong.
Zhou Gong Hei Jian and Guo Gong Ji's father were both in the Lu bedroom, and they did not leave for a moment.
Young Master Xiaobai walked in, frowned, Duke Zhou bowed his hands politely and said, "Young Master Qi, why are you here?"
Young Master Xiaobai said: "Xiaobai came to visit the emperor's condition."
He also said: "Xiaobai heard that Taifu Qi and Xiaobai's two pots were captured by the order of Duke Zhou. Wouldn't Duke Zhou also believe that it was Taifu Qi who poisoned and assassinated the emperor?"
Duke Zhou Heijian looked at the busy crowd, and said calmly, "Who can say for sure about this?"
Young Master Xiaobai pursed his mouth, seemed very angry, and said: "Duke Zhou, what are you talking about? Taifu Qi is loyal to the emperor, doesn't Duke Zhou know? Taifu tried his best to protect the emperor, and sent the emperor to ascend the throne. I know better than anyone else! Kuang Xiaobai said something ugly. Today, Duke Zhou was able to stand here and talk to Xiaobai. It was thanks to Taifu Qi who was able to protect Zhou Gong. ?! Does Duke Zhou want to be an ungrateful villain who will repay his kindness!?”
Duke Zhou Heijian's expression was still indifferent, no matter what son Xiaobai said was bad or nice, he couldn't impress him, he just said: "Young master of the state of Qi, what you said is wrong, the court's affairs don't show kindness at all. "
"You!" Young Master Xiaobai said with trembling fingers, "Why don't you show kindness! I think you want to control the government! Get rid of Qi Lu and hurry up!"
Duke Zhou lowered his head with black shoulders, his eyebrows and eyes were bright, and there was a faint smile on his lips. Although the smile was very shallow, it reached to the bottom of his eyes, and it made people feel chilling for no reason.
Duke Zhou Heijian said in a consistent tone: "Young master of the state of Qi, Tong Yan has no taboos. Today, he is critically ill and needs to be quiet. Please come back, young master."
"Let go of me! Let go of me! Let me go!"
The young master Xiaobai kicked his short legs, and his legs left the ground. He was dragged out of the bedroom by the Huben army.
Zheng Ji also heard about Qi Taifu's rebellion, so she came to Lu's bedroom early in the morning, firstly to visit her doctor, and secondly, she also wanted to know what was going on.
She hurried to the entrance of Lu's palace, and happened to see a few young princes from the Qi Kingdom, Xiaobai, leaving under the support of several Huben soldiers, she couldn't help frowning, and walked over quickly.
When Zheng Ji came in, the Son of Heaven had just taken the decoction brewed by the medical officer and sergeant himself, his complexion did not ease, he was vomiting blood all the time, and his mind became a little clearer.
Zheng Ji was startled when she saw Ji Lin's pale face. Now that she is young, she doesn't even have a wife, let alone an heir, and the emperor's uncle just "died of illness", although Zheng Ji is just a foster child A woman in a deep boudoir, but she also understands that once the emperor dies and the Zhou royal family has no heir, the world will inevitably fall into chaos.
Zheng Ji came to the bed and said respectfully: "Ji pays homage to the emperor, and hopes that the emperor is well."
Ji Lin was lying on the couch, very weak. She squinted her eyes and waved her hands, as if signaling Zheng Ji to get up. Zheng Ji did not leave after saluting, as if she had something to say, hesitated for a while, and finally spoke.Once he opened his mouth, his voice became very hasty, and he said: "Son of Heaven, Taifu Qi is a loyal person, helping the emperor ascend the throne, and the world can learn from his loyalty. Even Ji, a weak woman who doesn't understand anything, can see Taifu Qi Fu's loyalty, Ji doesn't believe it, the emperor, you can't see Qi Taifu's loyalty, there must be someone else who poisoned the emperor, please think twice!"
Ji Lin squinted his eyes, and suddenly gave a soft chuckle "hehe", and said, "Okay, Qi Lu, okay... What kind of psychedelic soup did Qi Lu give you to call you one by one, Mr. Guo?" , Young Master Qi, cough...cough cough...and Sister Ji, you all came to intercede for him? Cough—"
As he spoke, Father Guo Gongji, who was standing guard by the couch, bowed his head. Although he was ordered to capture Qi Lv, he indeed pleaded with the emperor after he came back, because Father Guo Gongji really didn't believe it. , Qi Lu wanted to murder the emperor.
Firstly, Qi Lu was the one who helped Ji Lin ascend the throne, if he wanted to murder the emperor, why not help him?
Secondly, Qi Lu is not bad-hearted, on the contrary, he is very kind. In this highly hierarchical royal palace, Qi Lu seldom treats slaves as human beings.
Thirdly, Qi Lv is very afraid of trouble, what is the most troublesome thing in this world, of course it is a desperate thing.
How could such a Qi Lu suddenly poison the emperor suddenly?
Zheng Ji still didn't give up, and said: "Son of Heaven... Taifu Qi is your master, don't you trust him?"
"Ah--"
Ji Lin laughed again for no reason. He lay on the steps, with a pale smile on his lips, and a trace of self-mockery in his eyes, and said, "The widow...just trusts him too much."
After finishing speaking, Ji Lin closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to say anything more.
Zheng Ji wanted to talk again, but she had no chance, so she could only leave Yan Dynasty and leave the palace worried.
Compared with the chaos in the palace, in the prison, it became more and more peaceful.
Qi Lu was sitting on the ground well, but since he had nothing to do and no entertainment, he was completely bored, and Qi Lu couldn't maintain his official airs anymore, so he lay down on his back with a "gudong" and tilted his head Legs, that movement is very indecent.
The young master rubbed his forehead, covered Qi Lu's body with the tunic that had rolled down, and said, "Father, it's cold on the ground. If you lie down, be careful of the wind and cold."
Qi Lv waved his hand and said, "It's too bad, I'm too tired from sitting, and my waist hurts. It's better to lie down."
He said, patted the place next to him, and said, "Come on, Second Young Master, can you lie down and try?"
Young Master Jiu didn't seem to want to lie down, he disliked the dirty ground, but after standing for a while, he was finally tired, after all he was not very old, so he lay down next to Qi Lu, one big and one small, two They were lying side by side, and together they were covered with Mr. Jiu's small robes.
Young Master Jiu looked at Qi Lu sideways, and said curiously, "Father, you are in trouble, so you are not in a hurry?"
Qi Lu said lightly: "What's the use of being anxious? It will only add to your troubles. It's better to think about what you will have for lunch today."
Qi Lv smiled and said: "Hey, if I knew I would be imprisoned, I should have asked Hei Jian about the food in the prison."
Young Master Jiu shook his head helplessly, and said, "It will definitely not be too good."
Just as he was talking, the prison guard came over with food in his hand.When lunch was served at noon, Qi Lu turned over and sat up immediately. Needless to say, because the prison did not have three meals a day, and there was no breakfast at all, Qi Lu was already hungry and was waiting for the meal.
The prisoner brought the food over and put it on the floor of the cell. Qi Lvding frowned when he saw it. The food...
Or is it done by Young Master Xiaobai?
A handful of hard-looking rice, rice is indeed a good food in this era, but this rice is obviously leftover.
In addition, there are some meat residues and pickle residues that are not fresh in color. In short, these vegetables and rice are really not very attractive, and it can be seen at a glance that they are definitely leftovers.
Seeing Qi Lu staring at the food bitterly and bitterly, the prisoner said, "Teacher Qi, there is nothing wrong with the ministers. The young master of the Qi State has let go, and we ministers dare not treat you two harshly, nor will you." Sneaking food for the two of you, take a look, even the ministers also eat like this, the two of you... just take care of yourself!"
Qi Lv saw that the prison guards did not lie, nor did they steal their food, which was not bad, because Qi Lu and Young Master Jiu’s meals were the same as those of the prison guards, they were all leftovers. No taste, no appetite.
Qi Lv stared at those vegetables and rice in a daze, and suddenly raised his eyebrows. Although he was in prison, eating is the top priority, and he must not be neglected. In life, eating is the top priority, so he said: "This vegetable and rice, Lv It can be remodeled."
"Reform?" The guards looked at each other, not knowing what it meant.
Can leftovers be transformed?Is it possible that the leftovers can be turned into some delicious food?
Qi Lu said with a smile: "If everyone is not afraid of the poison of the law, the law can indeed transform these leftovers, not to mention the delicacy, but there is no problem in eating them smoothly."
The prisoners looked at each other even more, and said, "Teacher, you are joking. The ministers are all pariahs. How can I bother you to poison them?"
The status of these prisoners is not high, and Qi Lu has no grievances or enmity with them, so naturally he will not have the motive of poisoning. Besides, the prisoners often hear that Qi Taifu cooks delicious food. The Taifu's meals are delicious, and I don't want to eat them again.
Now when the prisoners heard this, they couldn't help but move their index fingers.
Qi Lu then said: "Come on, let me dictate your recipes, and just take these dishes and rice and make some changes."
Qi Lu was in prison, so he couldn't go out to prepare meals by himself, but the meal he made was very simple, and it was very filling, and it was very satisfying to eat, and that was—golden omelet rice!
The rice is the leftover rice, which tends to harden when it is left over. Fried rice is just the right kind of leftover rice, with distinct grains and just right.
The leftovers are some meat scraps and pickled vegetable scraps. These things are fried just right in the rice. The outside is covered with a layer of golden egg skin. The egg is soft and slippery. Covering the fried rice, it is both delicious and beautiful. .
The prisoner got the recipe, and immediately brought down all the meals, even the meals of the prisoners, and quickly went to process them.The omelet rice is very easy, and it was completed in a short time. The leftovers that were poorly presented just now, and the leftovers that made people lose their appetite, instantly turned into golden omelet rice.
The yellow egg skin is covered on the rice. At a glance, it is impossible to tell that it is fried rice. It looks soft, smooth and elastic. The visual enjoyment of the egg skin makes people feel a sense of happiness.
The prisoners didn't even realize that the pitiful leftover rice just now transformed into such a beautiful one. With a simple dagger, all the golden egg skins were lightly touched, and "suddenly—" a gust of steam came out, steaming There is a scent.
Stir fry the rice, meat dregs, and pickled vegetables together to create a scent. The smell of pickled vegetables and meat dregs permeates into the rice, and the taste is different. It is much more vivid than the taste of vegetables and rice. .
Qi Lu brought the omelet rice that he and Young Master Jiu shared, and the two of them sat on the floor of the cell and began to enjoy the modified lunch.
The egg skin is soft and tough, slippery and elastic, and the entrance is slippery. Qi Lu thought that if you eat omelet rice, the moment you cut the egg skin is extremely ritualistic. Seeing the hot steam coming out, you don’t need to eat it. , will feel very satisfied.
"good to eat!"
"Eat it delicious! Xiaochen didn't know that the leftovers are so delicious!"
"This egg skin... is absolutely perfect! It really is perfect!"
The prisoners ate heartily, and Qi Lu and Young Master Jiu ate very happily. When everyone was eating, someone came to visit the prison again. It wasn't Young Master Xiaobai, but...Wei Zhouxu.
Wei Zhouxu had a feud with Qi Lu, and was humiliated by Qi Lu again and again. This time when Qi Lu was imprisoned, he wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Qi Lu, to see Qi Lu kneeling on the cell floor in such a state of desperation. The appearance of eating leftovers.
The leftovers were sent over by Wei Zhouyu.
how do you know...
Wei Zhouyu walked in from the outside with a proud face, and before he reached the cell, he smelled a fragrant smell. You must know that this place is a prison, and it is a good thing that there is no smell. Fragrant smell?
This taste is even more delicious than the beef that Wei Zhouyu ate for lunch today, with an indescribable taste that makes people move their index fingers and seduces Wei Zhouyu's taste buds that are eager to move.
He strode in and took a look, just in time to see Qi Lu enjoying the golden omelet rice. The egg skin is moist and smooth, the rice grains are distinct, the fried meat is fragrant, and the pickles enhance the flavor just right.
Qi Lu happened to scoop up the last mouthful of omelet rice with the skin of the egg with a small dagger, "Wow!" Putting it into his mouth, it was a satisfaction. He was a little full, but he didn't want to waste it, so he still had to bite the bullet ate up.
Wei Zhouyu did not expect that what he saw was such a scene, he said coldly: "Teacher Qi is different, did not expect to be so comfortable in prison?"
Qi Lu smiled lightly, and said: "He's in prison, and he's learned. Lu didn't do anything wrong, so he eats well. Thank you Mr. Wei for your concern."
"Hmph!" Wei Zhouyu said coldly, "Qi Lu, let me see how long you can be proud!"
He said, walked into the door of the cell, and said with a very low voice, with a chuckle: "Yes, don't worry, maybe the emperor will come to accompany you soon."
After finishing speaking, Wei Zhouyu laughed "haha" without going into details, and walked away in a very rampant way.
Luoshi Palace, inside the bus department.
"Get out of the way! Don't you have eyes?! Didn't you see that this is the car of the king of Wei?"
The slave-riding dog yelled at Doctor Qing loudly, and soon Wei Zhouyu swaggered down from the cart, straightened his sleeves, and said, "The weather is so good today, I'm afraid it's an auspicious day! "
"Yes, your lord is exactly what you said!" The riding slave immediately flattered him.
A black shadow came from a distance. The black shadow was tall, dressed in military uniform, with a sword on his waist, and several tall and strong followers followed behind him.
It was General Wei, Shi Hou.
Shi Hou came over, cupped his hands to Wei Zhouxu and said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready, Your Majesty can enter the bedroom... to visit the sick."
"That's right!" Wei Zhouyu laughed and said, "What are you waiting for?! Hurry up and visit Gu Jinlu's bedroom!"
Many doctors and officials in the palace were there, queuing up to visit the emperor. At this moment, the crowd suddenly became agitated. A few black-armored soldiers lined up the crowd, pushing and shoving the doctors and doctors, pushing a way, and Weizhou called for stool. Swaggeringly drove into the road bedroom from the outside.
Shi Hou, dressed in black armor, stood up straight, and said coldly to the senior officials, "My widow is here to visit the sick, please come back another day."
Clearance!
Wei Zhouxu came to visit and even cleared the venue. The doctors and officials complained in their hearts, but Shi Hou brought a few warriors with him, they didn't dare to challenge them, so they all left the palace angrily.
Soon, the Lu bedroom became quiet, and Wei Zhouyu, with an uncontrollable smile on his face, strode towards the most noble imperial room in the Lu bedroom.
When the eunuch saw Wei Zhouyu, he wanted to help spread the word, but Wei Zhouyu pushed the eunuch away and said, "Go away! I want to have an audience, can you small ministers stop me? Get out!"
As Wei Zhouxu said, he suddenly pushed open the door of the Taishi, and walked in very arrogantly.
In the imperial room, the emperor Ji Lin was lying on the couch with a pale face, Zhou Gong Heijian and Guo Gongji's father stood by, and the medical officer knelt down on the ground. Seeing the sincere and frightened appearance, one could tell
