I'm a marquis in Datang

Chen Dapeng said: "Prince, this requires a warrant."

The last time, Chen Dapeng went to see Du Qi, because he did not have Li Jiancheng's warrant, he was forced by Du Qi to return to the East Palace to get the warrant.This time, he got it right.

Li Jiancheng wrote a warrant, printed it and handed it to Chen Dapeng.

Chen Dapeng took it and left quickly to go to Du's house.Fortunately, Du Qi happened to be at the mansion early in the morning, so after Chen Dapeng arrived, Du Qi saw Chen Dapeng in the hall. He frowned when he learned that Li Jiancheng had summoned him.

Li Jiancheng summoned him again!

Last time, Du Qi tactfully rejected Li Jiancheng's solicitation, temporarily avoiding Li Jiancheng's harassment.But now, with the strength shown by Du Qi is getting stronger and stronger.Even Li Jiancheng would not sit idly by, so he sent someone again.

Du Qi looked at Chen Dapeng, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes."

After speaking, Du Qi turned and went to the backyard.

He changed his clothes, and instructed Liu Jian to stay at the mansion, then left the backyard, went to the hall to meet Chen Dapeng, boarded the carriage and went to the East Palace where the crown prince was.

Entering the hall of the East Palace, Du Qi folded his hands together and saluted, "My boy, Du Qi, see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Jiancheng said: "Du Erlang, don't be too polite."

Du Qi said: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Li Jiancheng changed the subject and said, "The prince has heard that, come to the bookstore again

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms sold in Zhongzhong was also written by you, Du Qi, under the guise of Luo Guanzhong. Is there such a thing? "

Du Qi looked determined, shook his head and said: "His Royal Highness, Miao Yi, you have been deceived!"

Li Jiancheng looked at Du Qi, as if he wanted to see something in Du Qi's eyes.With sharp eyes, he said in a deep voice, "Could it be that you didn't do it?"

"no!"

Du Qi said firmly: "His Royal Highness, the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms was written by Luo Guanzhong. It is only through his explanation that I know the content of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I am only in charge of transcribing it, that's all."

He didn't admit it at all.

It is not a good thing to admit it in front of Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng laughed when he heard it. He didn't care whether Du Qi was Luo Guanzhong or not. He changed the subject and said, "The original Zailai Bookstore is on the verge of bankruptcy and will soon be difficult to operate. Once you take it over, it will be full of vitality. Du Qi. Although you are young, you can turn stones into gold, which is really amazing."

Du Qidao: "His Royal Highness praises you absurdly. The boy is just lucky, so he can't take it seriously."

At this time, Du Qi already understood Li Jiancheng's intention.The reason for calling him here is that Li Jiancheng doesn't care about Luo Guanzhong or Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

What Li Jiancheng cares about is that the business of Zailai Bookstore is booming now, and it can make a lot of money every day.

This is what Li Jiancheng is jealous and cares about.

Chapter 111

Picture poor see

Li Jiancheng leaned forward slightly, staring at Du Qi eagerly, and said again: "Erlang, although you are young, there were twelve worshipers of Gan Luo in ancient times, and you are older than Gan Luo, so you can become an official." For an official."

After a pause, Li Jiancheng said seductively again: "Besides, becoming an official at a young age means that you can enter the officialdom earlier, you can experience the world's sophistication earlier, and you can get familiar with the officialdom earlier. For you, this is an opportunity. You , would you like to serve in the East Palace?"

Li Jiancheng had a smile on his face.

There is a stern look between the brows.

When Du Qi saw this situation, he thought about the last time he used Du Ruhui to evade Li Jiancheng's solicitation, but now, Li Jiancheng is soliciting again. Obviously, Li Jiancheng saw the bookstore and knew that he already had three books under his banner. The industry is making money every day and earning countless money, so I am ready to intervene.

Otherwise, Li Jiancheng would not intervene.

Although Du Qi was young, facing Li Jiancheng, he had a calm expression, neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "So that the crown prince knows, the boy is still too young, and he doesn't understand the world and the rules of the officialdom. What's more, my father has been away and never came home. So the boy will not be an official for the time being. The kindness of His Royal Highness, the boy appreciates it."

Li Jiancheng frowned immediately.

There is a shadow between the brows.

He solicited with good intentions, but Du Qi still didn't know how to flatter him.He had already given Du Qi face, but Du Qi didn't accept his kindness, it was really a toast instead of fine wine.

Du Qi didn't care what Li Jiancheng was thinking, and said again: "Speaking of which, when the restaurant opened that day, His Majesty went to eat in the restaurant. At that time, His Majesty praised the boy, and then asked the boy if he would like to become an official. The official position of the boy. It’s just that the boy is young, so he rejected His Majesty.”

After a pause, Du Qi said again: "Now, His Royal Highness is also recruiting, and His Royal Highness, like His Majesty, values

Boy, it's the boy's blessing.It's a pity that the boy is too young to be an official. I beg His Highness the Crown Prince to forgive me. "

Li Jiancheng narrowed his eyes and examined Du Qi.

There is even more fear.

He knew that what Du Qi said just now was deliberately bringing out Li Yuan and beating him up on purpose.If it weren't for this, Du Qi wouldn't have moved out of Li Yuan and said that he refused Li Yuan's solicitation.

Just imagine, Du Qi refused even the emperor, let alone the prince?

This refusal makes sense.

Li Jiancheng didn't change his face and scold Du Qi himself. He couldn't persuade Du Qi, so he handed it over to Wei Zheng, so he just looked at Du Qi.

Turning around, he looked at Wei Zheng below and signaled with his eyes.

Wei Zheng immediately understood, took the words, and said: "Du Erlang, His Highness the Crown Prince's recruitment is because he thinks highly of you. For you, this is an excellent opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, you will definitely regret it."

"No, I don't regret it!"

Du Qi shook his head and said: "Wei Xima, I have no interest in officialdom for the time being. I am still a child, not an adult, and I am not at the age of intrigue. I don't like intrigues in officialdom. So, I am willing to be honest. Stay at home, read a book, take a stroll. That's enough!"

Wei Zheng snorted, his tone gradually became severe, his face was cold and serious, and he scolded: "Du Erlang, you have repeatedly refused

, do you want to toast and eat fine wine later? "

Du Qi heard Wei Zheng's threat, but he didn't care about it, and continued: "Could it be that there is a rule of buying and selling by force in the prince's mansion. I don't agree with the prince's solicitation. Is it possible that the prince will forcibly convict me? "

Hearing Du Qi's words, Wei Zheng stroked his beard under his chin with a smile on his face.

There is murderous intent in the smile.

He reached out and grabbed the ceramic teacup on the desk in front of him, smashing it to the ground.In an instant, outside the hall, a group of warriors poured into the hall.This team of warriors, dressed in armor and holding sharp knives, stood upright, with a cold and murderous look on their stern faces.

Those who are less courageous will be frightened immediately.

But in Du Qi's eyes, he was neither humble nor overbearing.He got the news of Li Jiancheng's summoning, and before he came to the Prince's Mansion, he already had a foresight in his heart, knowing that Li Jiancheng had ulterior motives.

Therefore, there was no surprise about the plan to kill him, but it was expected.

Du Qi shook his sleeves, and said calmly: "Your Highness is going to kill me directly on an unwarranted charge. In other words, His Highness wants to charge me with one of the following crimes, snare me for a crime, and say that I am Du Qi, Well, a child of twelve or thirteen intends to assassinate His Royal Highness, and kill me on the spot?"
