After eating, Li Qing pushed his rice bowl and went straight back to his room. When he came to the door, he added:
"I'm tired, please go to sleep!"
Such a powerless sentence, the three women looked at each other and nodded lightly.
However, not long after Li Qing returned to the house, there was a knock on the door.
Hongxiu's face was slightly red, and he hesitated, "Sir, you are very brave. Even if you are tired, you can do it even if you think about it... I am brave..."
"Come in!" Li Qing didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm and pulled her into the house.
He took out a candle from the drawer, melted it on the flame, and stuck it on it. He turned around and said, "Well...can you let me see your feet?"
"Um…"
Hong Xiu nodded imperceptibly.
Li Qing stopped being polite and raised his legs to help her take off her shoes and socks. Her pink and petite feet looked even more lovely under the candlelight, making people unable to put it down.
Hong Xiu supported her body with both hands and turned her head away in embarrassment. As an oiran, she had seen countless people, but this was the first time she had seen such a hobby.
Even though she was a prostitute, she still felt extremely embarrassed when her feet were held in the palm of someone's hands and played with like this.
"Sir..." Hongxiu wanted to remind him to do business.
Li Qing, however, seemed unaware and thought to himself: "I have a bold way of playing, Hong Xiu, do you dare to try it?"
Hongxiu looked at death with a look on her face: "As long as sir likes it, I am willing."
"Don't be afraid, it's actually nothing." Li Qing smiled, "It's just sore feet at most."
"Sore feet?"
…
Two-quarters of an hour later, Hongxiu breathed a sigh of relief. Her legs felt like they were broken, and her toes were so sore that she couldn't straighten them up. She had never been so tired.
——
The next day.
Li Qing ate breakfast and hurried to the door, while the three women cleared away the dishes.
Lianxiang stacked the bowls together and bumped Hongxiu with her shoulder, "Sister, was it beautiful last night?"
"Where?"
Hong Xiu pouted and said, "It's not beautiful at all. It's exhausting. My legs and feet are still sore now."
"My legs are sore and it's not beautiful yet?" Lianxiang complained, "It's my turn tonight."
"Then you have to wash your feet clean." Hongxiu reminded.
"Look what you said, when did I not wash it clean... huh?" Lianxiang found a blind spot, "Feet?"
"Yeah." Hongxiu said, "Let me tell you, our husband..."
Wan Ling felt a little embarrassed, "You guys chat, I'll go wash the pots and dishes."
"Don't leave." Lianxiang grabbed her, "Learn from the past and teach future generations. You should learn more and use it in the future."
"Yes." Wan Ling nodded seriously, "Sister Hongxiu, tell me."
Hongxiu thought for a while, "I'd better demonstrate it to you. Wanling, go get the garlic mortar."
…
——Some people are alive, but they are already dead.
"Everyone, please be quiet!" Li Qing shouted: "Line up and come one by one. Anyone who makes any loud noise will get out."
As soon as the voice fell, the noisy crowd immediately became silent and the team became orderly.
Li Qing then showed a satisfied smile and said, "Next one."
This time he had enough of the interviewer addiction. The only flaw was that there was no interviewer among the candidates who would eliminate him in the future, otherwise he would have to show that person what it means not to bully young people into poverty!
The interview didn't come to an end until noon. Li Qing counted the number of people and found that there were nearly 700 people.
"Let's go to the palace this afternoon and have a look." Li Qing stretched himself, posted a "come back tomorrow" notice at the yamen gate, and went back.
After a brief lunch, Li Qing took a nap, got up and rushed to the palace.
I checked Queen Ma’s pulse and prescribed a new prescription.
After doing this, Queen Ma became a little nervous, "Isn't it that my end is approaching?"
"It's nothing." Li Qing consoled her, "Your Majesty is in good health. This is just for safety reasons."
"real?"
"Of course." Li Qing nodded confidently.
Queen Ma relaxed, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Are you busy now?"
"busy!"
"..." Queen Ma choked, "Can you spare some time?"
People have said so, what else can Li Qing say, "What are your orders?"
"You are so good at talking. Help me to persuade Anqing. She is looking for life and death all day long. I feel heartbroken when I see her."
"Huh?" Li Qing almost bit off his tongue, "No, no, no, how can I do this? Besides, she probably hates me."
"Isn't it your fault?"
"...Mother, what you say is unreasonable."
"You want to resist the decree?"
"..." Li Qing said helplessly, "My Majesty's advice will only be counterproductive. However, I do have a way for you to give it a try."
"Please tell me and listen."
"Only when you are infinitely close to death can you understand the true meaning of survival." Li Qingdao, "Let her die once, and she will understand the beauty of life."
Queen Ma frowned slightly, "For example..."
"Bungee jumping!" This is how Li Qing traveled through time.
He briefly explained the principle, which made Queen Ma's brows jump. "Is this really possible?"
"As long as the rope is strong, there is actually no danger, but you have to calculate the length of the rope carefully, as you may suffer some minor injuries."
Empress Ma pondered for a long time, nodded and said: "Okay, I will let someone do it right now."
"Your Majesty, don't say it was me who said it." Li Qing added: "She must believe that the emperor wants to execute her, so that it will be effective."
"Okay, anyway, Chongba is not a good father in her heart." Queen Ma nodded, "That's it, you go back and do your work!"
"Why."
Li Qing stood up and left the hall, but he ignored one detail. The ropes of this era were not as elastic as the special bungee jumping ropes of later generations.
In the evening, Anqing, who was looking for life and death, was tied up tightly. Several palace ladies hung her high on the mast. After the eunuch announced the imperial edict, the palace ladies loosened the turntable.
"Oh……"
An Qing fell headfirst and dived so fast that his soul flew away.
When her head was only one meter above the ground, she stopped her momentum abruptly and felt as if her legs were about to be torn off.
Before she could howl in pain, her body swayed again under the influence of strong inertia, and then her head hit the mast heavily. An Qing rolled his eyes and fell unconscious.
The eunuch and the palace maid were so frightened that their faces turned green, and they quickly stepped forward and untied her.
Afterwards, the imperial doctor examined Anqing and found that his lower leg was fractured and he had cerebral palsy.
——Some people are dead, but she is still alive.
Li Qing was escorted into the palace by the imperial envoys. He was an emperor, a queen and a prince. His eyes were filled with fire and murderous intent.
Queen Ma said: "It's all your fault."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Highness, the most important thing right now is to rescue the princess." Li Qinglu already learned what happened from Xiao Guizi's mouth, and said quickly, "The mast is only five meters high, so it is definitely not cerebral palsy, it is probably a concussion.
"
"What is a concussion?" Zhu Biao asked.
"How long have you been, and you still ask this and that?" Zhu Yuanzhang roared, "Li Qing, what the hell are you doing standing still? Why don't you hurry up and save people?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Li Qing knew he was in the wrong, but he didn't dare to say a word and hurriedly stepped forward to check on his condition.
Seeing An Qing's forehead as swollen as a birthday boy, he felt a little sorry.
First he tortured her husband to death, and now he almost tortured her to death. Although the former was more than worthy of death and the latter was not his intention, but... it was too much of a loss after all.
The calf fracture is not too serious and will be fine in two months. The main reason is concussion.
Li Qing inserted a needle into the Baihui point on her head, and then inserted a needle into the Yongquan point on the sole of her foot. After the two injections, Anqing woke up faintly.
"I don't dare anymore!"
An Qing howled violently, which made Li Qing tremble in fright and almost put back the silver needle he was about to pull out.
"Father, don't kill me. I was wrong. I don't want to die anymore. Don't kill me..."
Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly stepped forward and comforted him: "If my father doesn't kill you, don't think about it again in the future. It's not worth it to commit suicide for that beast. From now on, we will all be well..."
Empress Ma also persuaded An Qing, who burst into tears but had no thoughts of seeking death.
Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his sister would see Li Qing being agitated, so he quickly pulled him outside the palace.
"Li Qing, Anqing was almost killed by you, do you know your guilt?" Zhu Biao looked unkind.
"...I am aware of my guilt!"
Zhu Biao glanced at the Jin Yiwei who was in charge of the palace guard of honor and said, "Pull him down and hit twenty big boards, really hit him!"
"Your Highness..."
"If I am punished alone, the emperor will not punish me again." Zhu Biao said calmly.
Li Qing was startled for a moment and nodded helplessly.
Damn, what is this?
An Qing just lost her husband and almost died, but what she got was her delicate butt...butt!
Li Qing was beaten firmly, Zhu Biao gave him the golden sore medicine, and asked someone to carry a soft sedan, "They will be responsible for your travel during this period."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Li Qing cupped his hands and was carried out of the palace.
When I got home, it was already dark.
The three girls Wanling were extremely worried, and their beauty turned pale when they saw him being carried back.
Li Qing ignored their concerns and turned around and said, "I'd like to bother you, father-in-law."
Wan Ling was young but very discerning. She quickly stepped forward and gave each of the young eunuchs a piece of treasure money. The eunuchs smiled like flowers.
The leading eunuch smiled and said, "Master Li, have a good rest. We will come back tomorrow."
As he said that, he took a deep look at Wan Ling and secretly praised: "What a beautiful woman, she looks like a fairy. It's a pity..."
It’s useless!”
As soon as the young eunuchs left, Wan Ling immediately followed and locked the door. Then she ran to Li Qing and asked, "Sir, are you okay?"
Li Qing waved his hand, "It's okay."
After saying that, he got up and got off the sedan, "Let's go eat!"
The women looked at each other, wondering why he was acting like this, but they were too sensible to ask any further questions.
After dinner, Lianxiang shyly went to Li Qing's room.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Qing's screams rang out in the room:
"Oh my God, did you peel the garlic with your feet?"
