Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 473
Under the dim candlelight, Li Yifu's old face alternated between light and dark, making it even more gloomy.

Yuan Gongyu sat in front of him, staring at him gloomyly.

Today, he suffered a big loss in front of Li Qinzai. Not only was his home smashed, his son's leg was broken, Yuan Gongyu was also reduced to the laughing stock of the whole city.

The great shame and humiliation were all caused by an unjust case.

Yuan Gongyu was not the creator of this unjust case, but the executor.

Now that the executor was exposed, Li Qinzai taught him a lesson, and Li Qinzai took advantage of him. He was in danger of being dismissed from office and questioned at any time, but the perpetrator was unharmed. Yuan Gongyu couldn't help feeling angry.

So he quietly came to Li Yifu's mansion tonight and only did three things.

Fair, fair, or fucking fair.

Compared to Yuan Gongyu's anger, Li Yifu's expression was quite calm, and he said indifferently: "Yuan Zhongcheng, please calm down and don't be impatient. Please calm down first."

Yuan Gongyu sneered: "It's okay for you to hide behind your back. Of course you can calm down. I am the one who is unlucky. Today the mansion was smashed, the dog's leg was broken, and Li Qinzai took the blame. Show me how to calm down?"

Li Yifu frowned, and caught the key words in his words: "He caught the handle? What reason?"

"Liu Xingzhou was recruited in the prison of Dali Temple, saying that he was ordered by me. If that confession is presented before the emperor, I will not only be dismissed from office, but may also be exiled thousands of miles away."

Li Yifu's eyebrows gradually softened, and he said: "It's okay, there are people in the court who will protect you."

"I have been exposed and become an outcast, who will protect me?"

Li Yifu said slowly: "I can't tell you, but don't worry, someone will protect you."

Yuan Gongyu sneered, he didn't believe a word of Li Yifu's words, with the official position of Yushi Zhongcheng, what dirty things in the court haven't he seen?
Betrayal of allies, stabbing in the back, not only has he seen this, but he has also done it himself.

Now that he has no value and is exposed between the government and the opposition, who would take the trouble to protect an abandoned son?
"If I knew today, why did I cause such trouble?" Yuan Gongyu sighed absently.

Li Yifu also sighed: "The reaction of Yinggong's grandson was really beyond my expectation. I thought that something happened to Li Jingye, and Li Qinzai would at most run around to prove his cousin's innocence, but I didn't expect him to avoid this matter and find another way Set up a brand new situation for Yushitai..."

"This son is a little heavy, this time the old man lost." Li Yifu shook his head and sighed.

Yuan Gongyu said coldly: "Mr. Li was defeated, but I was the one who got involved. I became an official in the year of Zhenguan, and it took decades to get to this position. What I gained in my life, I lost it all in one day."

"In the court meeting three days later, if Li Qinzai presents the confession, not only will my reputation be stink, but my official position will also be implicated, and my whole family will be implicated. Mr. Li, the subordinate officials will do everything according to your orders. If I go to jail, I'm afraid I can't survive the torture tools in Dali Temple..."

Li Yifu frowned, and instantly understood the threat in Yuan Gongyu's words.

Yuan Gongyu's meaning is very clear, if I go to prison, if you don't protect me, I will definitely recruit you out, and we will finish the game together.

"Yuan Zhongcheng calm down, I swear to God, I will keep you safe and sound." Li Yifu hurriedly comforted him.

Yuan Gongyu managed to squeeze out a smile: "Your official has always believed in Li Jungong, so I will leave everything to you."

The two were originally an alliance of interests, and after finishing their business, they were in no mood to chat with each other, so Yuan Gongyu left.

Sitting alone in the study, Li Yifu stared intently at the dimly flickering candlelight on the low table with his cloudy old eyes. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.

…………

Early in the morning, there was already movement in the courtyard of the British government. The servants cleaned every corner under the arrangement of the housekeeper, and the maids stood outside the door of the master's room with copper pots of willow branches waiting for the master to wake up.

The housekeeper Wu Tong hurried to the backyard, dragged a passing maid, and told her to ask Wu Shaolang to get up.

The servant girl patted the door of Li Qinzai's room in horror. Hearing Li Qinzai's displeased roar from inside, the servant girl was so frightened that she shed tears and told Butler Wu's words before fleeing.

After a long time, the door opened, and Li Qinzai got up angry, seeing that no one was pleasing to the eye, and ordered the servants to detour.

After returning home yesterday, Li Ji took him to the backyard and taught him a lesson for a long time.

It is actually very troublesome for grandpa to train grandson. Others can swear swear words unscrupulously.

But Li Ji can't do it. When scolding Li Qinzai, he has to pay attention to his wording, and he must carefully avoid the eighteenth generation of his ancestors, because every sentence he affectionately greets the other party's eighteenth generation of relatives is theoretically his own sixteenth generation of relatives.

What's the hurry!
As a result, every time Li Ji scolded Li Qinzai, his mind turned very fast, as if he was taking a scientific examination, he chewed his words and carefully considered every sentence.

Too much worry and brain-burning, so Li Ji seldom scolded Li Qinzai recently, even if this evil beast hurt several of his beloved peonies, he chose to bear it as long as he could and tried not to scold others.

However, this time Li Qinzai went too far, Li Ji would be sorry for the eighteen generations of his ancestors if he didn't scold him.

The matter was handed over to Li Qinzai, and Li Ji was relieved at first. Although this beast has a calm and wild temper, it is still reliable in doing things after all.

Unexpectedly, Li Qinzai didn't say hello yesterday, and when he went out with his trilogy, he smashed into Yu Shi Zhongcheng's house, and even broke his eldest son's leg.

With such a bad behavior, others see that the British government is becoming more and more arrogant, how can Li Ji not be angry?
So after Li Qinzai returned home yesterday, Li Ji couldn't care less about hurting the innocent ancestors, so he took Li Qinzai and yelled at him.

Li Qinzai went back to his room with his head full of spittle, and slept until dawn. Before he woke up naturally, the maid woke him up and told him that there was a distinguished guest in the front hall asking to see him.

Li Qinzai was quite angry when he got up, and he was immediately angry when he heard this.

After wearing it, he rushed to the front hall aggressively. He wanted to see which blind thing dared to disturb his dreams. If he did not do as well as him, he must be taught a lesson.

After rushing to the front hall, Li Qinzai calmed down immediately, and he recognized this short-sighted thing.

Theoretically, if I didn't get along as well as him, I had to endure it.

The short-sighted thing's surname is Li, his name is the mansion, and he is the Duke of Hejian County.

Li Qinzai and Li Yifu had conflicts before. In the case of the disgusting victory, in the Zongzheng Temple, Li Yifu gave poisoned wine on behalf of the Empress Wu, which almost killed the two princesses. From then on, he also became enemies with Li Yifu.

This time Li Jingye was framed, and the British government was plagued by rumors. Li Yifu was Li Qinzai's second suspect, and the first was Empress Wu.

Seeing Li Yifu coming to the door early in the morning, Li Qinzai narrowed his eyes, as if he understood something.

He walked into the front hall with a smile, and gave a junior salute to Li Yifu, and Li Yifu also stroked his beard and laughed straight away, saying that the Qilin of the Li family has become handsome again.

The atmosphere between the two was polite and harmonious. The confrontation that broke out at Zongzheng Temple seemed to be completely forgotten at the same time.

After chatting for a long time, Li Qinzai tentatively asked about Li Yifu's intentions.

Li Yifu's smile faded away, he sighed, got up and bowed to Li Qinzai without saying a word.

Li Qinzai looked terrified, and hurriedly supported him: "Mr. Li, you can't do it, you can't do it, kid Zhasha."

Li Yifu sighed: "This ceremony is to apologize to Li Xianbo. I dare to do it and admit it. The recent troubles in your house are all behind the scenes."

Li Qinzai was stunned.

He vaguely understood the purpose of Li Yifu's visit, but he really didn't expect this old guy to be so straightforward.

You are so blunt, what should I do?Pick up the jug and smash your dog's head?
Li Yifu's frankness made Li Qinzai unable to deal with it, and he froze on the spot for a long time without saying a word.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Li Yifu couldn't help but said anxiously: "Uncle Li, Uncle Li! Cough, the old man is here today to make amends, and I did it all. Do you want to say something?"

Li Qinzai came back to his senses and began to look around.

Li Yifu's eyelids twitched, and when Li Qinzai found a silver jug ​​in his hand, Li Yifu quickly grasped it.

It's so dangerous, I almost got my dog's head smashed.

"Hold on, Uncle Li, how about listening to the old man explain one or two things?"

Li Qinzai smiled: "You tell me, I'm all ears."

The words were polite and the tone was kind, but the hand holding the flagon still did not let go.

Li Yifu held the other end of the jug, but he didn't dare to let go, and the other hand grabbed Li Qinzai's other arm.

The two of them were in a stalemate like this, their postures were like a pair of tango dancers... Biren.
