"Lian Shaohua?" Li Qi looked at Tang Yundao doubtfully.
Tang Yun smiled and said: "Didn't the young master say that this person is the number one talent on the Tianji list? Moreover, he planned Lanyuan's affairs. For such a thoughtful person, if he can serve the young master, then the young master will not need to do anything in the future.
Worried about a fire in the backyard.”
"But now that he has become a scapegoat, how can he serve me?"
Tang Yun said with a smile: "My lord, how can the icing on the cake be better than giving help in the nick of time? If Marquis Yuwen didn't let him be the scapegoat, how could you let him serve you?"
Li Qi nodded: "You are right, but this matter is still a bit tricky... How can I save him?"
Tang Yun placed a bowl of hot tea in front of Li Qi, smiled slightly and said, "Young master, as long as you find one person, Mr. Lian will be safe and sound."
"who?"
"Princess."
"Princess?" Li Qi frowned.
Tang Yun nodded and said: "That's right. Mr. Lian and the princess are married. After so many years, they will have more or less feelings. She will definitely not leave her alone."
Li Qi shook his head and said: "I think it's a bit suspense... Although I haven't had any contact with the princess, I can tell from what happened in Lanyuan that the princess is definitely not a kind person. Maybe Lian Shaohua is even worse than a maid in her eyes."
Not on."
"The young master can change Lian Shaohua's position in the princess's heart."
"Change? How to change?"
Tang Yun smiled and said: "Young Master said before that women are emotional creatures and are easily moved and emotional... So as long as Lian Shaohua performs a play, his status in the heart of the princess will change."
"What show?"
"As long as the princess thinks that Lian Shaohua is willing to be punished to save her, what do you think the princess will think?" Tang Yun said.
Hearing this, Li Qi's eyes lit up: "Yes!"
"Furthermore, this matter is beneficial and harmless to the young master. Even if it fails in the end, the young master will not lose anything." Tang Yundao.
Li Qi pulled Tang Yun over and put him into his arms: "Yun'er, you are so smart!"
"I learned these from Young Master." Tang Yun said shyly.
"Learned from me?"
"After following the young master these years, the young master has revealed a lot of wisdom in his conduct and life. In addition, every time the young master imparts new knowledge to me, it gives me a different way of thinking." Tang Yundao, "Actually, this time, I also followed the young master's instructions.
Taught me reverse thinking and come up with plans.”
Grandma, I really found a treasure!
Tang Yun's ability to draw inferences from one instance should not be too strong, and his learning ability is not weak either.
On weekdays, when Li Qi had nothing to do, he often told stories with Tang Yun. Most of them were about some TV dramas, and of course there were some historical allusions.
These things were very new to Tang Yun and he had never heard of them before, so every time he listened to Li Qi tell these stories, he listened with great interest.
It was also from these stories that she learned a lot, and Li Qi's avant-garde way of thinking also subtly influenced her, so her thinking is completely different from that of people of this era.
…
After Lian Shaohua was escorted back to Kyoto, he was imprisoned directly in the sky prison, where he was dying.
When Li Qi came to the Ministry of Punishment and saw Geng Rui, the Minister of Punishment, he still had the same dead face.
"I wonder what Mr. Li does to come to me?"
Geng Rui did not take sides in the court, and after the third prince came back this time, he often went in and out of the third prince's house. Li Qi also asked someone to find out, and the third prince had the kindness to know this man.
So after calculation, Geng Rui is from the third prince's side.
Before the third prince was away, he would naturally give the prince some face and do some things.
For example, when they rescued Huang Yunrou from Feiyan Village last time, Geng Rui and Li Qili cooperated with others to rescue Huang Yunrou.
In the end, Geng Rui got two benefits, the first was Li Qi's bribe, and the second was the allocation from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Of course, he wouldn't be stupid enough to tell the third prince about this matter. After all, Geng Rui is also a veteran in officialdom, and he always pays attention to being harmonious in everything.
"I came to see Mr. Geng today. Naturally, I have something important to discuss." Li Qi said with a smile.
"Oh? I wonder what Mr. Li wants?" Geng Rui casually picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
Li Qidao: "Master Geng must have also heard that Lanyuan's case involves many things...and I have also received instructions to handle this matter properly."
"Master Li received an order? What order?" Geng Rui asked pretending to be stupid.
Li Qi smiled and handed over a brocade box: "Master Geng, we Ming people do not speak secretly. I must have received some order. His Highness the Third Prince must have told Master Geng, right?"
Geng Rui rolled his eyes, glanced at the brocade box, hesitated, and took a look at it with two fingers.
Li Qi stuffed 30,000 taels of silver notes inside. At first glance, you can't tell how much there is, but the thickness makes people imagine.
"I heard His Highness the Third Prince mention it... that it seems that the princess was not behind Lanyuan's case, but the Prince Consort was behind it... Mr. Li is here this time..." Geng Rui said slowly.
"Of course I came here on orders."
"I wonder whose order Mr. Li is following?"
Li Qi pretended to be mysterious and whispered: "Of course it is Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Princess?" Geng Rui frowned.
"That's right, the princess asked me to come over and take a look at the prince-in-law... After all, they can be considered husband and wife, so she asked me to bring a few words to the prince-in-law." Li Qi said with a smile.
"It turns out that the princess asked Mr. Li to come... Then..." Geng Rui looked at the brocade box on the table and hesitated to speak.
"This is just a little care. After all, this matter involves sensitivity, so I hope Master Geng will pretend that he doesn't know about my coming here this time." Li Qi said with a wry smile, "A small official like me, at best, is an official.
To put it bluntly, he is no different from the father-in-law in the palace. He just does some errands... The master asks you to do things. There is no benefit if you do it well. If you don't do it well, it will be a trivial matter and you will lose your official position. You may be sent away directly.
Went to the Meridian Gate."
Geng Rui said: "Master Li is serious. Master Li is a popular person around the prince..."
"It's true that you are a red man, but I am like a tiger accompanying you. I don't dare to offend anyone in this palace." Li Qi sighed.
Geng Rui smiled, took the brocade box and put it aside: "Since Mr. Li wants to see the prince-in-law, although this matter is more difficult to handle, since it is the princess's wish, I have no choice but to do it... Let's do it.
I will arrange for someone to take Mr. Li there."
Hearing this, Li Qi quickly raised his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Geng."
"What's there to thank you for? We are all colleagues, so we should help each other," Geng Rui said.
Li Qi criticized in his heart: Grandma, she is quite good at using official accent. I think you do it for the sake of money, right?
