Chapter 38 Domineering
After getting rid of Zhe Yanzhi, Gao Qiu quickly walked towards the small courtyard yesterday. As soon as he walked outside the courtyard, he was stopped.
"Mr. Gao, Your Highness Duan has an order. No one can be disturbed without being summoned. Don't make things difficult for us."
A guard guarding in front of the moon gate walked up, blocking Gao Qiu's way, and applying for respect, but there was no intention of giving in.
"Do you know... um..."
Before Gao Qiu could speak, Li Guang, who followed him from behind, had already roared in a low voice.
"You are going to die? Where is this? Why are you yelling?" Gao Qiu reached out and stopped Li Guang, then raised his hand to cover Li Guang's mouth, turned to look at the guard, "I said brother, did Your Highness Duan not leave this courtyard yesterday?"
"yes!"
The guard replied, straightforward.
"Then let me ask you, how many people are there with His Highness Duan? Who are they?"
Gao Qiu didn't care about the other party's attitude at all, and then asked.
"There is only one woman named Li Shishi."
Still straightforward, the guards told everything they knew.
But just this sentence made Gao Qiu stunned. Li Shishi? Wasn’t she there yesterday? Although she had drunk with Huang Tingjian and the others last night and did not see Li Shishi with her own eyes, the three of them should have seen Li Shishi! More importantly, when Gao Qiu went out this morning, he really heard the voices of three women in Hua Xiangrong’s room. If Li Shishi was in Shiwenyuan, who was there?
"Mr. Gao, do you have anything else? If not, please come back first! If you alarm Your Highness Duan, then we will not be able to afford to be guilty."
Seeing that Gao Qiu did not continue the question, the guard became a little impatient and started to remind him.
"Oh, I have nothing to do, but I might be wronged you."
Gao Qiu put aside the doubts in his heart and looked at the guard in front of him with pity.
"Mr. Gao, what do you mean? I..."
The guard did not understand Gao Qiu's words and wanted to ask again, but his subsequent words were destined to be unable to speak.
With a "huh", a slap fell on the guard's face. Although he did not say anything about this guard, the crisp sound of "pa" spread throughout the entire Shiwenyuan.
Looking at the guard who was stunned by his slap, Gao Qiu took a deep breath, then changed into an angry expression, and yelled with gritted teeth: "You bastard! Do you don't even recognize me? Or what benefits did Gao Qiu give you that make you dare to stop me? Do you don't want your life?"
"No, Mr. Gao..."
The guards were completely confused and couldn't figure out how things had developed to this point.
When the guard said "Mr. Gao", Gao Qiu's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed in his heart, and another slap fell on the other party's face, "You fool! Even if you are a dog, you are still in the Duan Prince's Mansion, not his Gao Qiu's dog! Mr. Gao! Mr. Gao! If you dare to say something more, I will let you die immediately!"
"No, I..."
After blinking, the guards were completely stunned when they looked at Gao Qiu.
"Come on! Just pull this dog down for me and hit fifty rods!"
Seeing that there were people coming out of the courtyards on both sides, Gao Qiu knew that he had done almost the same acting, and there might be problems with his acting again. He gave Li Guang beside him a wink and asked him to pull the guard down.
There were actually not many guards with Zhao Ji. He was stunned by one of them, so the remaining guards didn't dare to talk too much. Who made Gao Qiu have more than ten of their companions around him?
"Cough! Li Guang, come in with me and see what that guy is doing!"
After winking Li Guang, Gao Qiu flashed into the moon gate.
Li Guang understood, turned around and looked down on all sides, and snorted coldly: "Duan Wang Mansion's family affairs, whoever dares to take a look at them again, will snatch their eyes off me!"
"yes!"
The person who came with Gao Qiu had been carefully ordered by the princess. When he heard Li Guang's order, he immediately responded in unison.
Those around him who heard the sound came out and immediately retracted back to their yard when they heard this sentence. The family affairs of the Duan Palace were indeed not allowed to do anything according to Zhao Ji's unruly and domineering personality. Anyway, the people from the Duan Palace angered Duan, and it was not their business. There was no need to do it.
In the courtyard, Zhao Ji, who heard the noise outside, had already gotten up, but he was not dressed. It was obvious that he did not do anything good last night.
"No, Zhao Ji, are you crazy? I'm so desperate to help you get things done, are you just dragging yourself down?"
For some reason, Gao Qiu was very upset when he saw Zhao Ji's appearance, for fear that someone he didn't want to see came out of the house after a while, so he spoke a lot more casually, and even called Zhao Ji his name.
"No, Gao Qiu, don't worry! Listen to me, things are not what you imagined."
Zhao Ji had never seen Gao Qiu look so angry, and obviously felt guilty. Not only did he not blame Gao Qiu, he even spoke up to defend himself.
"Not what I imagined? OK! You explain it to me!" Gao Qiu stepped into the house, but found that Zhao Ji was standing in front of him. I don't know if he was really stupid. He actually reached out and pulled Zhao Ji aside, "Get out of here!"
"No, Gao Qiu, why are you so anxious to do? I didn't do anything last night!"
Just like an angry young wife, Zhao Ji followed Gao Qiu into the house with a grievance on his face.
When he entered the room, Gao Qiu was stunned immediately. The little girl beside Li Shishi was sleeping soundly against the screen on the side, without any messy place on his body, and even covered with King Duan Zhao Ji's clothes.
"What's going on in your case?"
Gao Qiu looked at the little girl and didn't understand what was going on. Didn't he just say 'Li Shishi' here?
"I'll tell you that's not the case!" Zhao Ji only regained a little confidence at this time, straightened his back, and explained: "Ji Min, I drank too much yesterday, but I didn't do anything with her at all. We just sat together for one night. I heard her life experience all night, but you don't know that her life experience is not ordinary! "
"Isn't it ordinary? My father died at the age of three, my mother remarried at the age of four, and my stepfather was sold to a weathered place by my stepfather at the age of five. Is that true?" After a few casual words from the brothel women, Gao Qiu turned around, looked at Zhao Ji helplessly, and sighed: "What do you ask me to say to you? You didn't do anything, but do you think others will believe you? If someone takes you to spend the night in Wenyuan, you will probably have no chance of that position in your life!"
"Is it that serious?" Zhao Ji muttered in a low voice. When he saw Gao Qiu's face turned gloomy again, he quickly said seriously: "Yes, yes, you are right, what should we do next?"
"What should I do? This...Li Guang, come here and let's discuss it!"
Gao Qiu was about to use his brain when the light from the corner of his eyes saw Li Guang and immediately became energetic.
He pulled Li Guang aside for two steps, discussed in a low voice for a long time, and finally made up his mind.
"Gao Qiu, is this really necessary?"
Although Li Guang didn't like Gao Qiu very much, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate when he heard Gao Qiu's idea.
"You remove the word 'Do' for me! This matter is very necessary!" Gao Qiu knew that this plan was indeed a bit too much, but he still persuaded Li Guang with great sincerity, "You heard that this plan is not just a continuation of the previous plan, but also for myself. What do you think of my behavior just now?"
"What you did just now? I felt that it was a bit too much. That's Your Highness Duan. No matter how good your relationship with Your Highness is, you shouldn't be so rude!"
Recalling Gao Qiu's behavior just now, Li Guang couldn't help but take a step back, trying to distance himself from Gao Qiu.
"You think so, right? I was too excited just now, and now I feel a little scared. So this plan is not only to make the whole plan more perfect, but also to make His Highness Duan angry. If I continue to accumulate this way, I can't stand it when I finally settle the accounts!"
Gao Qiu was also very helpless. He didn't know what was wrong just now, but he lost his mind. If he couldn't solve the problem successfully, he might have to say goodbye to the happiness of the rest of his life.
"Then... OK! Since you said that, I will definitely prepare them and strive to be completely true!"
Gao Qiu had already said so bluntly. Li Guang felt that if he disagreed, it would be a bit too much, so he agreed.
"Well! Since that's the case, I'm relieved." Gao Qiu patted Li Guang's shoulder and said earnestly: "There is another thing, I'm relatively weak, so I have to ask you to play me later!"
"No, Gao Qiu, what do you mean, I..."
Li Guang felt that he had been fooled, but when he wanted to find Gao Qiu to argue, he found that Gao Qiu was missing long ago.
Gao Qiu naturally would not cheat himself, but he had to arrange everything, so Li Guang naturally became his "scapegoat".
