Chapter 81 A cloud-piercing arrow, push the Su family down for me!
Zheng Hongxiu knelt down, bowed deeply to Li Shu, and said, "These are the two calligraphy paintings hanging in the hall of Hongxiu Tower. As we all know, they are the original works of Mr. Pu and Cao Bichang."
"Now that the building has been sealed, I dedicate this word to Mr. Li to prevent the pearl from being covered in dust!"
"Please show Master Li a clear path!!"
It was Zhao Cheng's decision not to give gold or silver to Li Shu for his calligraphy and painting.
On the day of Su Ye's conferment, although Li Shu kept a low profile among the crowd, he sent someone to buy the calligraphy during the queue.
Thinking back to Li Shu's official career and his state of being obsessed with poetry and songs all day long after retiring in Yanchuan, he also cultivated Li Guanyu into a talented man who caused harm to brothels.
Judging from this, he is also very thirsty for the authentic works of famous artists.
Seeing Li Shu's hesitation, Zhao Cheng stepped on Li Guanyu.
Li Guanyu quickly said: "Dad..."
"Shut up." Li Shu interrupted Li Guanyu, looked at Zhao Cheng, and said: "Since the prime minister has come forward, I will speak frankly. This matter is very complicated, although I am very familiar with these two characters.
I appreciate it, but because of the relationship between my son and you, I don’t want you to wade into this muddy water, so I won’t accept this word.”
"Master Li is joking, I'm not afraid of trouble."
"My son is afraid of trouble!"
Zhao Cheng looked at Li Guanyu and asked, "Are you afraid of trouble?"
Li Guanyu was stunned for a moment and said: "Am I... afraid or not?"
Zhao Cheng said: "You don't need to be afraid of this."
"Cough!!" Li Shu pretended to cough twice more.
"Master Li!!" Knowing that Li Guanyu could not count on him, Zhao Cheng immediately increased his volume, leaned into Li Shu's ear, and whispered softly: "Isn't it good?"
Li Shu's face turned dark, and he said softly: "You don't know how to be a good person, and you have three wives and four concubines without being fertilized! If you like watching this, there is no shame in it!"
"Master Li has misunderstood. Li Guanyu and I are even friends, and his father is my uncle. How can I laugh at you?"
Zhao Cheng looked around, then leaned directly into Li Shu's ear and said: "I just want to say that your brochure is printed, and the picture quality is very different from mine."
Li Shu was stunned for a moment, and then he figured out what was going on, and asked: "Could it be that..."
"Hand-painted book." Zhao Cheng said proudly: "The calligraphy is the same as the one presented by Mother Zheng, the original handwriting!"
Seeing Zhao Cheng and Li Shu whispering, Li Guanyu glanced at Zheng Hongxiu, confused.
What did the young prime minister say to my father?
So close?
My dad and I have never spoken like this!!
Li Shu trembled his lips and said, "This painting..."
Zhao Cheng sighed: "I don't understand painting. I originally wanted to show it to Mr. Li for appreciation, but since Mr. Li doesn't even accept the words, he must not accept the painting either..."
Li Shu swallowed and asked, "This hand-painted book...should be more realistic, right?"
Zhao Cheng was a little surprised. It turned out that what Li Shu cared about was not that the original work was more valuable, but that the painting was more realistic.
Zhao Cheng immediately said: "Of course, it looks like it will run out of the painting. Even if you have bad kidneys, you dare not look directly at it!"
Li Shu looked stern and lowered his voice: "This matter has something to do with Su Wansan."
"Ah?" Zhao Cheng laughed: "Hahahahahaha!!"
He whispered: "I'll have someone deliver the picture book tonight."
Li Shu also laughed: "Hahahahahaha!!!"
He whispered: "Earlier, before I go to bed."
Li Guanyu asked: "Dad, you guys?"
Li Shu took Zhao Cheng's arm, patted it, and said with a smile: "You and the young prime minister are close friends, and I am his uncle. We, uncle and nephew, talk about everything, hahaha!"
With that said, Li Shu took the initiative to walk up to Zheng Hongxiu, helped her up, and said: "Mother Zheng, I will tell you what I know, but you don't want to say anything, can you do it?"
Zheng Hongxiu pointed behind her and said vowedly: "If I say anything more after walking out of this bamboo forest, I will be struck by thunder from heaven!"
Li Shu nodded, returned to the bamboo chair and sat down, picked up the teacup and said, "Did Mother Zheng offend Boss Su?"
"Su Wansan??"
Zheng Hongxiu raised his eyebrows, as if he wanted to understand something, and immediately said: "Is he doing it for the day when Su Ye was awarded the title?"
Li Shu said: "I don't know that."
"It must be! This is the only reason I have offended him!" The more Zheng Hongxiu thought about it, the more he felt it was right, and said: "Not only did he raise his price, but he also lost his face. This is his revenge!"
"The person who died in Hongxiu Tower was the one who arranged for him, and he benefited from the riots in Tiangui Fang and Tianxiang Tower. Of course..."
Li Shu closed his eyes and said, "Your Hongxiulou business is booming, so you are hated by these colleagues."
"Since Mr. Li knows these situations, please help the women of the country to clear their grievances!"
"Mother Zheng thinks highly of me too much."
Li Shu said angrily: "I'm just the Minister of Rites accompanying the capital. I don't have the ability to touch someone like Su Wansan."
Zheng Hongxiu asked: "Do you want Mr. Deng?"
"Neither can he!"
Li Shu looked at Zhao Cheng and said, "Can the young prime minister understand?"
Zhao Cheng thought for a while and said: "Yanchuan is the capital of the capital, and there must be someone in Changsui who can become the richest man in the capital. I can understand this. Who is Su Wansan's backer in Changsui?"
"Young Prime Minister!" Li Shu shook his head and said, "This matter is not just yours, even if the right prime minister comes, it will not be easy to solve..."
Zhao Cheng narrowed his eyes and understood immediately.
Even the right prime minister can’t solve it...
Apart from the emperor, there was only one other person who supported Su Wansan.
Left Prime Minister.
Zhao Cheng nodded, winked at Zheng Hongxiu, cupped his fists at Li Shu and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li, for your advice today!"
…
Outside Li Mansion.
Zheng Hongxiu said angrily: "Su Wansan, that bastard, I'll kill him!"
As he said that, Zheng Hongxiu took out a firecracker-like thing from his pocket and was about to pull it up to the sky.
"With an arrow that pierces the clouds, thousands of troops are coming to meet me! I'm going to gather my friends from all over the world and bulldoze the Su family to the ground!"
Zhao Cheng quickly pressed down the firecracker hole with his palm and said: "Mother Zheng can't help it, calm down! You have been fighting in the world for half your life, and you have finally opened up the heaven and the earth. You can live a peaceful life. You must not give up all your efforts!"
"But this bullying is too much!"
"I know!" Zhao Cheng comforted: "But we have to take a long-term view! You believe me, he ruined my business, how can I make it easier for him?"
"Behind him is the left prime minister, what can we do?"
"No hurry, no hurry, let me think about it..."
When Zhao Cheng was thinking, Yang Taozhi suddenly appeared silently from behind him.
"A Cheng, there's something urgent."
Zhao Cheng glanced at Zheng Hongxiu and immediately stepped aside with Yang Taozhi.
Yang Taozhi said: "The right prime minister is missing."
"What?? My father?!"
Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment, then quickly calmed down and asked, "Where did he disappear?"
"Lingshan."
Hearing this, Zhao Cheng remembered that Xiao Luomu had said this place name and asked: "Lingshan is between Qingdong and Hannan. How could my father go there when he came back from Changsui?"
"I don't know." Yang Taozhi shook his head and said, "But I don't feel very good."
"Speak directly if you have anything to say." Zhao Cheng frowned.
Yang Taozhi said: "There is news that when the Right Prime Minister came out of Tianze Hall, Wen Tai supported him the whole time, as if the master and apprentice were reconciled as before."
"So I suspect that Wen Tai deliberately acted hypocritically, and then secretly killed the right minister on his way home!"
Zhao Cheng's pupils shrank and he said in shock: "Sister, this analysis makes sense!!!"
"Su Wansan, that bastard, he belongs to Wentai, I'll kill him first!"
Zhao Cheng was furious and immediately turned around and strode towards the direction of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Calling all the soldiers of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion! Bulldoze the Su family for me first!"
Zheng Hongxiu immediately stopped Zhao Cheng and advised: "Young Prime Minister can't help you, please calm down!!"
