Chapter 171 Playing hard to get

"Brother Yan, look at this monk who is quite pitiful..."

Before Li Qi could finish speaking, Yan Yuejun said: "Brother Li, just say what you want to say directly. As long as I can help, I will never refuse."

"I want to trouble Brother Yan to spare this man's life, but I don't know..."

Having said this, Li Qi smiled.

"I thought it was something big. It's such a small thing. I'll just let him go after a while." Yan Yuejun said with a smile.

Li Qidao: "That's what I think. Look at how far this case has come, it would be unjustifiable if we don't give Zhang Yuanwai an explanation."

He looked at the headless corpse on the ground and said, "It's better to say that the farmer killed Zhang out of lust. In this case, the case will be solved and the monk's life can be spared."

"Brother Li's move is really high." Yan Yuejun smiled and said, "In that case, just do what Brother Li said."

"Thank you so much, Brother Yan."

"What's the matter? Brother Li will have to come to the bad camp to drink tea from now on."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Wei Gang, who thought he was dead, never expected that someone would help him.

He heard everything Li Qi and Yan Yuejun said just now.

He couldn't figure out why that person wanted to help him.

"Monk." Li Qi saw that he was in a daze and shouted, "You can leave now."

"Why do you want to save me, sir?" Wei Gang asked.

Li Qi smiled and said: "I usually like to make friends with people who value loyalty. Although you killed someone, you are excusable. It is our fate that I can save your life today. You

Let’s go quickly.”

Wei Gang took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty's kindness, I, Wei Gang, will always bear it in my heart."

After the case was handled, Li Qi didn't need to worry about it at all. Wang Husheng wrote the file and submitted it to the Ministry of Punishment.

Now we are waiting for verification from the Ministry of Punishment. Once verified, coupled with Prince Jiang's operation, Li Qi's promotion will be settled.

Then you can enter the palace.

Huang Yunrou was imprisoned in Tianlao, which was within the imperial city.

Li Qi also learned about this situation from Prince Jiang.

It is not easy to rescue people from the prison, so this matter cannot be rushed for the time being.

As for investigating Concubine Liu's death, Li Qi has no clue at the moment.

When Li Qi got up early that morning, Wang Husheng ran over and said that there was a monk outside the door who wanted to see her.

After hearing this, Li Qi felt happy.

This trick of playing hard to get finally got the fish to take the bait.

As soon as Wei Gang saw Li Qi, he knelt down on one knee and said, "I just met Master Li."

Li Qi quickly went up to help him up: "Brother Wei, what are you doing?"

"The villain's life was saved by the adults. I have taken care of all the things that need to be dealt with in the past few days. I came here today to repay the kindness of the adults for saving my life." Wei Gang said with a firm face.

"Let's go in first." Li Qi smiled and led him to the main hall.

After asking Wang Husheng to pour two cups of tea, Li Qi asked: "I wonder where Brother Wei is from?"

"I'm from Guangcheng," Wei Gang said.

"Guangcheng, a good place, a good place." Li Qi said, "I wonder where Brother Wei learned his martial arts?"

Wei Gang said: "I learned it at Guangyuan Temple."

Li Qi nodded: "Brother Wei came to see me..."

"I don't have any skills, I just practice kung fu. I came to see you, hoping to help you with something to repay your life-saving grace." Wei Gang said.

"Brother Wei, you are serious. No matter what kind of favor you are, since you are willing to come over and help me, that is my blessing."

Li Qi said to Wang Husheng on the side: "Brother Wang, you will arrange a place for Brother Wei to live in a while, and let him live here from now on."

"Okay, sir." Wang Husheng said.

"Brother Wei, I have said before that I like to make friends with people who are loyal. If you are willing to come here, you respect me as a brother. From now on, you will live here. If you need anything, just tell me."

Li Qi said as he took out a one thousand tael silver note and handed it over: "You can use the money first, and then talk to me when you don't have enough."

Wei Gang was stunned and couldn't help but thought: This Master Li not only saved my life, but he also treated me so well. If he asks me to do something in the future, I will definitely do it beautifully.

Li Qi didn't know what he was thinking. Anyway, he felt that since he had plenty of money, he couldn't be stingy with the people around him. He might have to rely on them for any trouble he encountered in the future.

"Brother Wang." Li Qi took out another hundred taels, "These are for you. You will make arrangements for Brother Wei later. You can take care of whatever needs to be purchased."

Wang Husheng seemed to be used to Li Qi giving money whenever he disagreed, so he was not polite. He took the banknote and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will definitely make arrangements for Brother Wei."

The day after Wei Gang settled in Qingxiudu, a document was sent to Qingxiudu.

At first, Li Qi thought it was his promotion documents that had arrived, but who knew that when several eunuchs walked in, he realized something was wrong.

"Where is Li Qi?" the eunuch shouted at the top of his lungs.

Li Qi hurriedly stepped forward: "Little Li Qi has met your father-in-law."

The leading eunuch glanced at Li Qi, smiled and said, "Master Li, there is no need to be polite. The Sa family is here today to deliver an imperial edict to Master Li."

"Imperial decree?"

Li Qi was stunned for a moment, unable to react. He glanced at Wang Husheng on the side and saw that this guy was also confused.

Before they could think about it, the eunuch said: "Li Qi, deputy commander of the forward battalion, accepts the order!"

Li Qi stood there in a daze. Wang Husheng hurried over and pulled him: "Sir, please kneel down quickly."

Damn it, kneel down?

He was a little uncomfortable for a while, but as the saying goes, when in town, do as the Romans do.

Now that I am powerless, if I don’t kneel down, I might just be beheaded at the Meridian Gate tomorrow!

But Li Qi couldn't figure it out, how could there be an imperial edict?

I have never even seen the emperor’s face…

Could it be Prince Jiang?

Is he so capable?

While he was thinking wildly, the eunuch read a lot of things that he didn't understand.

"Master Li, why don't you quickly repay your grace?" the eunuch said.

Li Qi came back to his senses, didn't care about the situation, and said: "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness."

As soon as the eunuchs left, Li Qi looked at Wang Husheng: "Brother Wang..."

"Congratulations, sir!" Wang Husheng said with a bright face.

"What does the imperial edict say?" Li Qi asked.

Wang Husheng was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said, "Master Li, the emperor has appointed you as the prince's attendant."

"What? The emperor asked me to accompany the prince to study?"

Li Qi was a little dumbfounded. What is going on?
