I Don’t Want To Be the Emperor

Chapter 121 Lovesick Dog

Baiyun City’s Guzui Shapi represented Sanhe in the battle, and Hongzhou, Nanzhou, Yuezhou, Chuzhou and other places also had their own dogs playing in the finale.

  On the day of the official start of the competition, it was even more lively than the oiran election at Chunxiang Tower.

Lin Yi was strolling around Baiyun City, while Qi Peng followed behind him as his servant pushed his wheelchair.

Qi Peng suddenly said, "My lord, aren't you curious about how I know so many secrets?"

Lin Yi said nonchalantly, "Don't you want to ask, can this king still succeed in defeating me?

You are already like this. If I torture you again, can you still live?

This king has never been difficult to be strong. It is good to be a man. Hello, it's really good. "

After saying that, he sat down next to a tea stall. After the boss served tea, Qi Peng filled it up for Lin Yi with his own hands, and then waved to the servant Pan Duo behind him, signaling him to leave.

 “Caomin has always been grateful to the prince for his trust.”

“That’s wrong. It’s because I don’t believe in you that I keep you by my side.”

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Who knows whether you will use my secrets to exchange for money, or whether you will feel safer staying with me."

 Qi Peng said righteously. "The prince is joking. Although the common people have a low status, they still understand the principle of loyal ministers not serving the two masters."

Lin Yi said, "How many times have I told you, don't be a grassroots person, just listen and respond."

"yes,"

Qi Peng continued, "I want to say something about myself, but I don't know if the prince is interested in hearing it."

Lin Yi put a peanut into his mouth and said while eating, "You can say whatever you want. I am also very curious. How do you, a person with limited legs and feet, know so much without even leaving the door? thing.”

 “Waiter, do you have any wine?”

Qi Peng didn’t wait for the waiter’s response before he threw a piece of silver on the table.

The waiter hurriedly picked up the silver and said with a smile, "Everyone, please wait a moment."

Who stipulates that teahouses cannot sell alcohol!

 Not to mention they are still acquaintances.

 After a while, a bottle of wine and two glasses were brought over, along with a plate of beef.

Lin Yi also took a glass and said with a smile, "Although your physical fitness has improved now that you are swimming, you still don't want to drink, as it can easily lead to inflammation."

 “Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty,”

 After Qi Peng drank a glass, he sighed, "Eat less, it won't hurt in the end."

Lin Yi said, "Then drink slowly, don't be in a hurry."

“I remember when I first met the prince, I said that I was born in Dazhu Town and grew up in Dazhu Town,”

 Qi Peng's face turned red after drinking three glasses of wine in a row, "I grew up with her. The two of us were childhood sweethearts and were inseparable."

"she?"

Lin Yi immediately caught the key word.

"yes,"

 Qi Peng drank another cup of wine and continued, "I have been a childhood sweetheart since I was a child.

As we got older, due to the big differences between men and women, we couldn’t be together in public, so we would still go out secretly. I would take her out to ride horses and catch fish.

 That was the happiest time in my life.

My father had high expectations for me and wanted me to shine brightly, so he went to Fucheng when I was twelve years old.

 When I was fifteen years old, I got a Jieyuan, which was a very exciting time.

 My father was seriously ill and had to return to his hometown to serve.

 However, she is no longer there. Her father moved to Yuezhou with his entire family to do business three years ago.

Father was seriously ill and died soon after, so I was naturally devastated. "

Lin Yi poured him a glass of wine and sighed, "It's not easy for you either."

 The double blow of losing a father and losing love is indeed quite uncomfortable.

 “I have no intention of taking the imperial examination,”

Qi Peng raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, "After my father passed away, I had no plans for Qiu Wei and took care of the family business at home.

 Your Majesty, do you know what it feels like to miss someone? "

"have no idea."

Lin Yi shook his head honestly.

 Having been single all their lives, even if they have unrequited love, they will soon forget it, such as the concubine of the Yuwen family and Yan Shiqi.

 “I’m Meng Lang, what a person the prince is!”

 Qi Peng smiled bitterly.

 “Love has nothing to do with high or low,”

Lin Yi smiled and said, "If you like someone, even if she is an ordinary girl, you will miss her heartbrokenly."

"This is exactly the reason," Qi Peng sighed, "If you think about it but don't understand it, you will turn around.

I packed my bags and rode all the way to Yuezhou to look for her.

Yuezhou is so big. By the time I found out his whereabouts, it was already a year later when his father was in trouble and passed away due to depression.

 His aunt married him away to Sichuan.

 I searched all the way to Chuanzhou again.

 For two whole years, still nothing.

 At that time, I understood the truth that a person's power is limited after all. "

Lin Yi nodded and said, "Looking for it by yourself is probably like finding a needle in a haystack."

 There was no Internet, no phone, underdeveloped communication, and inconvenient transportation. It was basically impossible to find a person in the vast sea of ​​people.

“So, I drew a portrait of her when she was thirteen years old. Everywhere I went, I hired porters to help carry the portrait and asked questions on my behalf.”

Qi Peng smiled bitterly and said, "My family originally had a fortune of tens of thousands, but because of these porters and helpers, they were gone in less than a year."

 “She’s already married, why are you still looking for her?”

Lin Yi originally wanted to call him a prodigal, but in the end he held back. After all, he was already pitiful enough.

“I can’t rest assured, this is an obsession. If I can’t find her, I don’t think I will be happy in this life,”

Qi Peng put down the cup in his hand, "I wouldn't want to give up. I have gathered thousands of porters and helpers under my command. If we just disperse, there will be no hope of looking for her again in this life."

I am not considered a smart person, but my family has been doing business for generations, and I have been immersed in this kind of business.

With the help of the elderly at home, he opened a silk and satin shop and sold tea. The business grew bigger and bigger, and he had more and more porters and helpers.

It only took fifteen years to open restaurants, inns, warehouses, brothels, silk and satin shops, and **** agencies all over the Liang Kingdom, even outside the Great Wall. "

　　　"A willow planted in a willow tree without intention?"

  “Exactly.”

 “Go on.”

 Lin Yi finally became interested.

“How much money I make, it doesn’t matter to me, the main thing is to get information about her,”

Qi Peng said, "In the end, Huangtian paid off and I finally found her five years ago.

Unfortunately, she already has three sons and one daughter.

 What a pity in life!

 I didn’t bother her, I just looked at her quietly, that was enough for me. "

Lin Yi didn’t know how to evaluate it.

 Say he is a licker?

Honest man?

 Spare tire?

The girl didn’t flirt with him, didn’t give him a promise, and wasn’t ambiguous either!

 After all, it’s just the unrequited love of a single dog!

"Since you can find people everywhere, it means that your legs and feet were fine back then, and having money and leisure was no longer a dream. Why is it like this now?"

In order not to stand in the cold, Lin Yi asked one more question.

Anyway, idle is idle.
