Domineering husband

Chapter 117 The Compilation Is Actually On His Side

The chrysanthemum banquet in Juyuan was indeed a must. Even though Lu Wenrong interrupted their interest, Tao Zhu and Li Dashan couldn't help eating until their stomachs were round after the dishes were served.

Li Qiao was also full of praise, and bought some chrysanthemum tea and two small altars of chrysanthemum wine before leaving.

This chrysanthemum wine is made from glutinous rice. It is low in alcohol content, slightly sweet, and has the effect of strengthening the brain and improving eyesight. Even if he doesn't like drinking, he couldn't help but pay for two jars.

After entering the city, the ox cart separated from Xin Zhi's carriage, and then Li Qiao turned to Tao Zhu who was beside him, "How about we go again next time for a rest?" "Should we still go?

" Li Dashan's eyes widened: "Uncle, there are too many dandies in this capital!"

Li Qiao laughed at the word dandy: "Then we have to go out."

"Yes, we can't live together forever Don't go out. The Chrysanthemum Garden is pretty good, let's take Qiangeer, Ershan and Xiageer with us next time when we rest, and let's go play again." Tao Zhu said.

Moreover, the consumption is not very expensive, the whole family can go, as long as they don't buy chrysanthemum wine and chrysanthemum tea, they can have fun with a few dozen taels of silver.

"Uncle Zhu, aren't you afraid? Today I was so scared that I shrunk my neck!" Hearing Tao Zhu's words, Li Dashan was a little embarrassed. Is he too timid... "It's useless to be afraid, he even

scolded Let's go, should we bear it? We didn't provoke him. Your uncle is also an official! Why should you be angry?" "

He is a dandy who has achieved nothing, but he is a domineering man because of his grandfather's achievements. With talent and learning, your uncle can crush him with one finger."

"Even if it's not about talent and learning but force, a little brother like me can beat him into a pig's head."

Tao Zhu held Li Qiao's hand tightly as he said that, so he wasn't afraid.

Anyway, Li Qiao couldn't bear this kind of dandyism.

The worst thing is to die, but before he dies, he must drag that Lu Wenrong to die together.

Li Qiao saw Tao Zhu's smoldering appearance in his eyes, and felt warm in his heart. He smiled and boasted: "Brother Zhu is the most powerful." Li Dashan, who was a little scared at first, heard the words, and the anger in his heart was aroused

. He couldn't help but also clenched his fists: "That's right, why should my uncle be angry with that dude? Uncle finally won the first prize in the exam and came to the capital, not to be angry with that dude. Let's go ahead if we have anything to do." "

The mountain is also powerful." Li Qiao also boasted with a smile: "Anyway, what should we do, but, in order to prevent them from coming to Yin, you should not go out casually these two days." "Let's find a toothmaid to buy a few

more You are a strong nursing home, and you will always take someone with you when you go out."

"You still want to buy a nursing home?" Tao Zhu was surprised.

"There is no place to live after buying it." Li Dashan also said.

"Buy another small yard near our house and let the nursing home live in it. You have to take someone with you when you go out, otherwise I don't worry about it."

Li Qiao insisted.

"Okay." Tao Zhu nodded.

Li Qiao couldn't be distracted.

When they got home, Xu Ying and Shen Hua had already returned, so Li Qiao and Tao Zhu went to find Xu Ying, wondering if Master Zhang had made things difficult for him.

By the way, I also want to give Xu Ying some advice. Now that he has offended the British government, Xu Ying must know what to do.

Although Xu Ying and Shen Hua's house had three entrances, it was relatively small and the house was of a normal size, so the yard was very narrow. When Li Qiao and Tao Zhu arrived, Xu Ying and Shen Hua were sitting in the yard having dinner.

The husband and wife came back early, Master Zhang's goal was Li Qiao, and Li Qiao wanted to play with Xin Zhi, but Master Zhang missed his target and was not very interested in playing, so they came back after lunch.

I didn't have a good lunch, so this dinner was a little earlier.

Besides, after autumn, it gets dark early, and now the sun is almost setting.

Xu Ying and Shen Hua called Li Qiao and Tao Zhu to sit down and eat together. Li Qiao waved his hand, and after sitting down with Tao Zhu, he briefly explained today's conflict.

Xu Ying and Shen Hua didn't expect such a thing to be seen today in appreciating chrysanthemums. After hearing Li Qiao's words, the couple frowned tightly.

But luckily the Seventh Prince was there.

"It's okay, okay, the Seventh Prince has spoken. If the British government insists on revenge, it will be slapping the Seventh Prince in the face."

Xu Ying patted her heart, feeling a little grateful.

"Well, we're not very worried, but you, who are so close to me, be more careful when doing things in the household department in the future, and don't be troubled by me."

Li Qiao told him.

"I'm a little seventh-rank official, no matter what happens, I can't be counted on my head, don't worry." Xu Ying's attitude is quite good.

"Our official position is low. If the British government suppresses it casually, we may not be promoted."

Li Qiao was really worried about this.

Fortunately, he is the number one scholar who is in the limelight, and he is still in the Imperial Academy.

But Xu Ying was in the restaurant and bank of a remote department of the Ministry of Household Affairs. This department could not see Sheng Hong, nor could he make great contributions. Even if the British government did not suppress it, it would be difficult for Xu Ying to get promoted.

Now that he has offended Lu Wenrong, if the British government wants to suppress Xu Ying, a little seventh-rank official, it is really just a matter of talking.

"Also, if you don't give Mr. Zhang face today, will he find fault with you in the future?" "If you

find faults, you will find faults. I'm not afraid. If you don't get promoted, you won't get promoted. It's fine now."

Xu Ying said with a smile.

"No promotion?" Li Qiao was surprised.

"Yes, it doesn't matter whether you get promoted or not. Everything now is a pleasant surprise for me. I didn't have much hope when I went to take the Juren examination at the beginning, but I passed it. The examination is more about accumulating experience. Mentality, who knows it's over again."

"Now I'm a seventh-rank official at a young age, and I'm satisfied."

Xu Ying looked serious.

When he first passed the Juren examination, he was still very ambitious. He was afraid that at the time of the examination, he would end up with a fellow Jinshi who would become a minor official or even fail to become an official.

But soon he changed his mind.

It would be nice to be an official.

Even small officials are different from ordinary people.

To be a human being, one must be content.

What's more, since he knew his family's thoughts, he had no desire to be a high-ranking official. Because his family members were too obsessed, they were a little crazy.

Now that he is a seventh-rank official, he can have so many incredible ideas. If he really becomes a high-ranking official, he dare not and does not want to think about what his family will do.

He is quite satisfied with his present position.

There are few people in the department, and although the work is complicated, he can handle it. He receives the imperial salary every month and honors his ancestors. His hard study for more than ten years has not been let down.

"I'm not in a hurry to get promoted, you don't have to worry, and you don't have to blame yourself for the disappearance. He is a dude, why should he look down on us who came from a small place? You can refute it well." "Yes, cousin is not

afraid Being suppressed, he doesn't want to be promoted. Brother Qiao, you are very good, what's wrong with you from a small place? You can't do anything and you look down on Xinke champion Lang, it's ridiculous." Shen Hua also shared the same hatred, waving his fists and scolding Lu Wenrong: "There is no Britain

. Duke, what is he?"

Li Qiao couldn't help laughing when he heard this, but he was also moved in his heart.

Now we are waiting to see the reaction of the Holy Majesty.

After returning home, having dinner, washing and lying down on the bed, Tao Zhu was finally able to say what he had been holding back for a long time.

While wiping his hair with a cotton towel, he exclaimed: "Young Master Shen is actually the Seventh Prince!"

He had been thinking about this for a long time, but the little brother was the Prince: "Does the Holy One know his real gender?"

Li Qiao was also brushing her hair, and smiled when she heard the words: "I probably don't know, and the Seventh Prince himself doesn't know that we already know, but today he rescued us, we have to thank him very much." "Tomorrow you make some snacks,

take Send my famous post to the Seventh Prince's Mansion."

He remembered that when Mr. Shen lived here, he seemed to like Tao Zhu's dim sum, and he would eat all of them every time he sent it over.

"Okay!" Tao Zhu replied heavily.

At that time, he was the one who took care of Young Master Shen, but in fact, he was not the one who took care of him.

Mr. Shen is quite strong, and he is actually a little brother, so even if he is seriously injured, he and Li Qiao will not be troubled.

He and Li Qiao didn't do anything other than bring food and water.

"Mr. Shen is quite a nice person. At that time I smashed his jade pendant, but he didn't care at all."

Speaking of the jade pendant, Li Qiao remembered the name of the seventh prince: "No wonder that jade pendant is Ye Zi, and the seventh prince's surname is Sheng Ming Ye."

"Good name." Tao Zhu boasted.

Li Qiao couldn't help laughing, it seemed that Tao Zhu was really grateful to the Seventh Prince, and even praised his name.

"I'll make a few more snacks. He actually likes to eat sausages. After all, he's a little brother, and he likes to eat delicious food." "

Okay." Li Qiao had no objection, but told him not to be too tired and not to be in the city. Wander around here and come back after finishing business.

The next day, Li Qiao went to work in the Imperial Academy as usual.

His colleagues in the Imperial Academy treated him as usual, and they didn't mention Lu Wenrong's matter to him. I don't know if they haven't heard about it yet.

Since his colleagues are the same, what should Li Qiao do?

He has been reading the historical materials of the previous dynasty for a while, and he has read almost all of them now. However, after reading it, he has to check the progress of his roommates Master Li and Master Duan first.

Compiling a dynasty's history books is not something that can be done in a few months or a year or two, it often takes several years.

If he wanted to get started, he had to look at the progress of his predecessors first.

This day was spent reading books again, and I got off work at four o'clock in the afternoon.

Walking to the gate of the inner city, the familiar cattle station stood by the side of the road, and Li Dashan was sitting on the shaft of the cart waving to him.

When he got into the bullock cart, Tao Zhu immediately said: "Dashan and I just came from the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and the Seventh Prince happened to be at the mansion. He saw me and returned the gift to me." "The Seventh Prince is at the mansion?

Then Just right. What kind of gift did he give in return?" Li Qiao asked with a smile.

"It's some precious medicinal materials, which are said to be used by the imperial court, and people of our status can't buy them outside." Tao Zhu said happily.

The rare and precious medicinal materials used by the queen, this time the gift is real.

However, because of the difference between men and husbands, Li Dashan was also there when the Seventh Prince saw him. The Seventh Prince looked businesslike, saying that yesterday's rescue was just a matter of effort, and asked him when the dim sum shop would open, and then sent him away. He left with Li Dashan without mentioning a word about the last time.

But the Seventh Prince gave medicinal materials, should this be a hint?

Li Dashan was not there when he rescued Mr. Shen last time. Now in front of Li Dashan, he didn't say much, but asked Li Qiao: "Is there anyone who made things difficult for you when you were on duty today?" "Don't worry, everything is normal

. ." Li Qiao patted his hand.

"That's good." Tao Zhu was slightly relieved.

As soon as he got home, Han Ning brought the matchmaker over.

Li Qiao originally wanted to buy a strong and strong man, but after comprehensive consideration, he still chose to buy a half-sized man.

If it is old, I am afraid it will be difficult to control, and the body functions of the old are already declining, so this time he wants a young man between the ages of fifteen and twenty.

There were not many people who met this requirement, and the matchmaker only brought eight people here.

After Li Qiao's assessment, two remained.

A sixteen-year-old tall man, Li Qiao changed his name to Li Dao.

A seventeen-year-old, not as strong as Li Dao, but with good physical flexibility, Li Qiao changed his name to Li Jian.

After buying the man, Li Qiao asked Li Dao and Li Jian to live in the shop temporarily, and also assigned them a task to follow him to work from tomorrow.

After escorting Tao Zhu and Li Dashan back, they wanted to run in the alley.

The alley where Li Qiao's family lived was about a kilometer long.

Li Dao and Li Jian ran 5,000 meters in the morning and 5,000 meters in the afternoon.

Supervised by Li Ershan.

Li Qiao's idea is very simple. The foundation of Li Dao and Li Jian is zero. Run first to develop endurance and then talk about other things.

After buying the nursing home, life has passed.

Tao Zhu originally wanted to postpone the opening time of the shop, but even the Seventh Prince asked about it. After discussing with Li Qiao, he decided to open it as scheduled.

While Li Qiao was busy training the nursing home and preparing for the opening of the shop, on the other side, the chrysanthemum appreciation scandal spread.

As the fifth prince's eldest brother-in-law, Lu Wenrong suffered from Li Qiao's embarrassment. The general officials dare not talk about such a shameful thing, but the people on the third prince's side are unscrupulous.

On this day, Xin Zhi took advantage of lunch to tell Li Qiao the latest public opinion trends in the capital.

"Now the word "nothing achieves" has become synonymous with Lu Wenrong, and our entire noble circle is laughing at him."

Li Qiao was stuffing steamed buns into his mouth, and his eyes widened when he heard the words: "I haven't heard such a thing.

" Secretly ridiculed from time to time."

The highest in the Imperial Academy is Du Guqin, who is the fifth rank, but Lu Wenrong is the eldest grandson of the British prince and the eldest uncle of the fifth prince. The gap between the two sides is so big, who dares to discuss it?

When Li Qiao heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched twice: "

Whatever you want. "

As a sixth-rank petty official, all he could do was turn back when Lu Wenrong mocked him. As for what happened after that, it was beyond his control.

Seeing that he lowered his head and continued to pick up vegetables, Xin Zhi couldn't help but click his tongue, the food in the Hanlin Academy was only as sweet as Li Qiao could gulp down.

He glanced at the positions of Lord Li and Lord Duan, and seeing that these two adults were not there, he moved closer to Li Qiao, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty didn't respond, and the British government didn't respond either. It seems that both sides want to deal with it coldly." With

the Seventh Prince suppressing it, and the fact that this matter was at Lu Wenrong's fault, the British government did not dare to act recklessly, so it could only hold back for the time being.

As for the Holy Majesty, on the one hand he is the new favorite, on the other he is the great hero of the year, but because Li Qiao didn't suffer a big loss, and Lu Wenrong didn't suffer a big loss, so they simply pretended not to know?

Or maybe you know it, but because the matter is too small, you don't bother to take care of it?

Li Qiao couldn't guess what Sheng Hong was thinking, the Sacred Heart was unpredictable.

But since no one came to trouble him, his life must have passed.

Swallowing the salty potato shreds in his mouth, he said to Xin Zhi: "Forget it, let's take a step forward. My dim sum shop is about to open. If you want to eat, you can send someone to buy it."

"Dim sum shop?" Xin Zhi's eyes lit up: "Of course I have to buy it. My family has been thinking about it for a long time." "

Okay, I'll leave some for you when the time comes." Li Qiao nodded with a smile.

On the first holiday after the chrysanthemum appreciation turmoil, Li's dim sum shop opened.

Han Ning advertised in his stewed restaurant two days in advance. Li Qiao's reputation is great, and the business of Han's stewed restaurant is good, so Li's Dim Sum shop is full of guests right after it opened.

Knowing that there are a lot of people who can't stand him, Li Qiao put up a sign saying "Once the dim sum is sold, we are not responsible" at the door, lest someone cause trouble with vulgar but effective food poisoning.

The brand of Liqiao is extremely driven away, which is tantamount to doubting every customer without distinction. If it were someone else's shop, there would definitely be very few customers.

But who made Liqiao's dim sum famous and delicious? Customers who want to taste delicious food can hardly resist the temptation of delicious food, so they should buy it or buy it.

Besides, besides ordinary diners, there are also Xin Zhi and the Seventh Prince.

Xinzhi's family has a large population, and his family alone can consume 20 catties of snacks every day. In order to cheer Li Qiao up, he bought 60 catties of snacks in one go.

The Seventh Prince also came. His family has a small population, but he loves snacks, so he bought some of everything, which weighed more than ten catties.

On the second day after the dim sum shop opened, Li Qiao went to work in the Imperial Academy as usual.

Near noon, Qian San, the head of the palace, suddenly came to the Imperial Academy:

Sheng Hong called Li Qiao into the palace.

Qiuxian Hall.

After the Qionglin Banquet, Li Qiao had never seen Sheng Hong again, and he hadn't seen him for half a year, and Sheng Hong's demeanor remained the same.

But Li Qiao was a little emotional. As the champion of the sixth grade, he rarely saw Sheng Hong once. It was too difficult for a small official in ancient times to climb up.

"Li Aiqing, you've just entered the officialdom, how have you been recently?" Sheng Hong called Li Qiao down, and opened his mouth in such a homely tone.

Li Qiao immediately acted flattered: "Your Majesty, the colleagues in the Imperial Academy are extremely kind, and everything is fine for me in the Imperial Academy." "

Then I can rest assured." Sheng Hong smiled: "I am calling you today Come here, there is an important matter for you to do."

"Please tell me, Your Majesty." Li Qiao immediately showed a look of duty and responsibility.

"The few articles you wrote during the imperial examination were all good. In order to point out the way for scholars all over the world, from today onwards, you compile a few books specially used to guide the scholars of the world. If you finish the compilation, I will give you a promotion. "

... I obey the order."

Li Qiao blinked.

The big thing is to compile the imperial examination guidance book?

"Don't underestimate this errand, I need talents like you." Sheng Hong pointed out his finger and said to Li Qiao: "I am waiting for you to use these books to send young talents to me." Li Qiao:

" ..."

Got it.

heavy responsibility.

Moreover, Sheng Hong's move is also to find him a reason to be promoted.

Otherwise, if he followed the usual path, it would be really difficult for him to go up. Just look at Mr. Li, who is in the same room and also the number one scholar.

So, Sheng Hong is actually on his side?

Alas, his performance ability is still too low, he still can't make Sheng Hong stand by him without hesitation.

It was really difficult to be a courtier in ancient times.

Behaving too strangely will arouse the king's suspicion.

The mediocrity of the performance was not enough for the Holy One to defend him.

He had to think again.

The author has something to say:
