When eating the first steamed bun, Zhao Teng's thought was: I'm so hungry, I want to eat.
When eating the second steamed bun, Zhao Teng's thought was: Something is wrong, but I am so hungry and I want to eat.
When eating the third steamed bun, Zhao Teng's thought was: I'm a little hungry, but this is wrong.
Zhao Teng only ate half of the fourth bun and couldn't finish it. Now his heart is bleeding: This is too damn expensive.
In fact, everyone from Li Shui has been mentally prepared for the fact that Li Shui’s things are expensive. It doesn’t matter if you buy something at a high price. Who among you hasn’t bought it yet?
but! Today is different.
What Zhao Teng bought today was extremely expensive.
And the key point is that except for him who bought it expensively, everyone else didn't buy it expensively.
In the past, everyone was slaughtered together, but now only I am left to be slaughtered.
What the hell is going on?
As a result, Zhao Teng glared at Li Shui.
This kind of glare is completely uncontrollable anger.
Li Shui sighed helplessly, and then said to Li Xin: "Brother Li, did you see it? This guy just had his fill for less than a quarter of an hour, and he immediately looked like this towards me."
Li Xin said: "This is also a helpless matter. There are some people in the world who like to repay kindness with hatred. What can Brother Huai do?"
Li Shui said: "Yeah, what can I do? But one good thing about me is that I like to give favors to others. No matter how others treat me, I must have a sincere heart and get along with them seriously. "
"For example, Mr. Nei Shi, although he treated me like this, I still regard him as a close friend. I also believe that he will be influenced by me."
Li Xin said with some disbelief: "Is it possible? Why do I think it's impossible?"
Li Shui chuckled and said, "I will definitely do it. Look carefully, although he has anger on his face, he keeps eating the buns I brought. Isn't this influenced by me?"
Zhao Teng was almost furious: Damn, I bought the buns myself, how can I not eat them? The court meeting is about to start, can I not eat quickly?
Unfortunately, Zhao Teng's mouth was full, and even if he wanted to refute, he could not speak.
At this time, a young eunuch came out and said with a smile to the civil and military ministers waiting outside: "The officials are ready to enter the palace."
Zhao Teng stuffed the last bun into his mouth, followed everyone, and walked slowly towards the main hall.
It's a pity that Zhao Teng was a little worried about stuffing this bun. The bun couldn't go up or down, and it just got stuck in his throat.
Zhao Teng wanted to take out the bun, but he couldn't. He wanted to swallow it, but he couldn't do it.
Zhao Teng was choked and rolled his eyes.
At this time, Li Shui came over humbly and said to Zhao Teng: "Master Nei Shi, I have a pot of water and a piece of gold here. Do you want to buy it?"
Zhao Teng gritted his teeth and nodded.
then……
One bite, two bites, three bites, four bites...
In an instant, Zhao Teng lost four yi gold.
Feeling distressed.
Chunyu Yue couldn't stand it anymore. He walked to Li Shui and said helplessly: "Master Nei Shi, I have never had any enmity with you. I can't say we are on good terms with each other, but at least there is no conflict. Why are you doing this? "
Zhao Teng glanced at Chunyu Yue with some gratitude.
Giving help in times of need is always touching.
Li Shui coughed dryly and said to Chun Yuyue: "I'd like to teach my sister-in-law to know. Mr. Neishi, it is true that you have no grievances or enmities with me, but for people like us who do business... it doesn't matter whether we have any grievances or not." Yeah, whoever gets caught counts."
Chunyu Yue: "..."
Li Shui's words barely mentioned who he saw cheating whom.
The other party is already so straightforward and shameless, so what else is there to say?
Zhao Teng waved his hand, smiled bitterly, and said to Chunyu Yue: "Thank you very much, doctor. Today... I will consider myself unlucky."
Boss Li Shui was unhappy and murmured to Li Xin, "Think you are unlucky? I didn't buy or sell by force."
Li Xin whispered: "Brother Huai, don't be sad. As time goes by, you will realize your painstaking efforts."
The surrounding courtiers were very angry with Li Shui, and even more helpless with Li Xin.
Li Xin, this guy, really doesn’t hurt his back while standing and talking. Anyway, you don’t have to spend any money at Shangjun Courtyard, so of course you can go to great lengths to build it.
At this time, the court meeting had already begun.
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Teng and said, "How is the matter I ordered you to investigate?"
Zhao Teng bowed his hands to Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, I have completely investigated the matter. The ghosts in Mr. Qi's mansion are mostly nonsense."
Mr. Qi broke into cold sweat immediately.
If there are no ghosts, there are adulterers. When the time comes, wouldn't it be a bad thing if Your Majesty lets Zhao Teng investigate the adulterer?
Mr. Qi said quickly: "Things like ghosts come and go without a trace. I don't know how Mr. Nei Shi investigated. Is there any negligence?"
Boss Zhao Teng was unhappy.
Mr. Qi, what does this mean? Do you think you are not capable?
Zhao Teng chuckled and said, "Sir, I think I made no mistakes. There are indeed no ghosts in your house. If you don't believe it, I can provide evidence."
Mr. Qi thought for a while and said, "Then I'll wait and see."
Producing evidence that there is a ghost is very simple, just catch the ghost and bring it here.
But...it is even more difficult to come up with evidence that there is no ghost. Why do you say there are no ghosts in the house? This cannot be proven at all.
Therefore, Mr. Qi really wanted to see it and see how Zhao Teng could prove it.
Zhao Teng said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I need to bring some witnesses."
Ying Zheng nodded and said calmly: "Yes."
Later, Zhao Teng brought over a maid.
This maid looked gorgeous. After going to the palace, although she was a little nervous and frightened, her eyes were still secretly observing.
When she saw some officials who were not that old and looked pretty handsome, the maid quietly glanced at her, as if she was trying hard to sell herself: Sir, you see I am young and pretty, do you want to buy me back? Be a concubine.
When the courtiers saw this scene, they secretly thought: Master Qi, isn't he a master of Confucianism? Why are the maids in the mansion so frivolous?
In fact, this maid was not frivolous at first, but... after spending a long time with Mr. Qi's daughter-in-law, she inevitably became frivolous.
If you follow the same example, the one who is close to the ink will be black.
Zhao Teng said to the maid: "Did you see a ghost that day?"
The maid nodded and said, "Yes, I have seen it."
Zhao Teng said: "Please tell me in detail what happened that day."
The maid responded and said: "That day, I saw a white shadow, swaying and floating, trying to enter the young lady's room."
"At that time, I took a closer look, and oh my, that face, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, was clearly that of the dead young master."
"The young master smiled at me and said: Taohua, you serve the master faithfully. Very good, very good. I will reward you heavily in the future."
"Then, the young master arrived in the room. Not long after, the young master and the young lady were talking and laughing, and then the sound of the bed legs squeaking."
"The slave was embarrassed to hear the sound from behind, so he retreated."
The courtiers around me all thought to themselves: Judging from your demeanor, you don't look like someone who would be embarrassed to listen.
Li Shui questioned: "What? If you see a ghost, aren't you afraid?"
The slave named Taohua said: "Why are you afraid? He is my young master. Even if the master becomes a ghost, isn't he still my master? As a maid of the Qi family, whether I am a human or a ghost, All must serve faithfully.”
Li Shui: "..."
He could only give the maid a thumbs up: You can do it. It works!
Master Qi said to Zhao Teng: "Master Nei Shi, according to this person's confession, this ghost clearly exists."
Zhao Teng said calmly: "Master Qi, don't worry, there will be more to come."
He said to the maid: "Is everything you said true?"
The maid nodded repeatedly and said, "It's all true. My little girl can guarantee it with her life."
Zhao Teng hummed with satisfaction, and then said to the maid: "Is everything you said true?"
The maid said seriously: "Everything I said is true."
Zhao Teng hummed and then said: "If there is any falsehood in it, it will definitely be punished."
The maid said: "Yes."
Zhao Teng waved his hand and asked the maid to go down.
Then he brought another servant.
When this servant went to the temple, he was so trembling that his legs were shaking and he almost peed his pants.
After the courtiers looked at this servant, they couldn't help but shook their heads, thinking that this guy was simply an embarrassment to men. Not as good as that maid just now.
But this servant's cowardly behavior also has an advantage, that is, it subconsciously makes everyone feel that this guy can't lie and doesn't dare to lie, so what he says must be true.
Zhao Teng looked at the servant and said calmly: "Did you really see a ghost in Qi Mansion?"
The servant looked at Mr. Qi, hesitated, nodded and said, "Yes, I have seen a ghost."
Zhao Teng chuckled and said, "What does the ghost you saw look like? Can you tell us about it?"
The servant looked around blankly, and whispered: "What does it look like? I... I don't dare to look at it."
Zhao Teng said calmly: "I didn't dare to look. How did you know there were ghosts? Just tell me what you saw. Don't worry, there are so many adults here, no one will make things difficult for you."
The servant responded and said cautiously: "Yes, I had a stomachache that night and was about to go out for convenience. Unexpectedly, I heard a burst of laughter just as I went out."
"This laughter is like ringing in people's ears at the same time, making the villain's hair stand on end."
"The little man panicked and looked around, but couldn't see the figure. Suddenly, an owl flew away with a squawking smile."
The servant was very timid, but he spoke vividly. Many courtiers imagined the contents of horror movies and couldn't help but feel creepy.
Zhao Teng said a little speechlessly: "You just need to mention the key points directly. Some of these are not necessary, so there is no need to explain them in such detail."
The servant yelled and said: "The villain didn't dare to go too far at that time, so he settled under the tree and then wanted to run into the room. Who knew that a cold breeze suddenly hit the back of his neck."
"The villain was panicked. He turned around suddenly and saw a black shadow appearing behind him. The black shadow laughed and entered the young lady's room."
"Then I heard the young lady say: Husband, you are here..."
"The villain doesn't know what's behind, because the villain has already fainted from fright. When the villain wakes up again, it will be dawn."
Zhao Teng said calmly: "Is what you said true?"
The servant nodded repeatedly and said, "It's true, absolutely true."
Zhao Teng waved his hand, and the servant also went down.
Zhao Teng said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, the situation is very clear now. It is obviously the same ghost, so why did the two servants describe it differently?"
"One is a white shadow with a handsome appearance. The other is a black shadow with a creepy appearance."
"This can only mean one thing. These two people are lying. There is nothing wrong with them at all. Their confessions are completely inconsistent."
Ying Zheng nodded slowly.
Master Qi suddenly felt a little panicked when he saw this posture.
He coughed dryly and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I think that there are still some flaws in the investigation of Lord Nei Shi."
Ying Zheng said calmly: "What's the mistake?"
Mr. Qi said: "Ghosts...maybe they can change their clothes. It's perfectly fine to wear black clothes today and white clothes tomorrow."
"Maybe when the maid saw the deceased, he was in a good mood, so he didn't look so scary. When the servant saw the deceased, he felt a little unhappy, so he looked scary. This is entirely possible."
"Therefore, I believe that this cannot be generalized and cannot be used as evidence that ghosts do not exist."
Zhao Teng said to Master Qi: "Your master's sophistry skills are truly worthy of being banished to immortals."
Li Shui: "..."
Everything is fine, why did the flames of war get to me? Is my little transparent person also being targeted?
Mr. Qi snorted coldly and said nothing.
Zhao Teng sighed and said, "Then invite the young lady of Qi Mansion in."
The young lady came in.
The young lady was wearing very elegant clothes and her expression was very dignified, but for some reason, when the officials saw this person, they always felt that this person was not that simple.
Many people, seeing the sad look on the young lady's face, wanted to pat the young lady on the back and comfort her.
After the young lady came in, she saluted Ying Zheng and then saluted Zhao Teng.
Zhao Teng said: "Please tell me, what was it like when your husband came back?"
The young lady said: "I don't know."
Zhao Teng chuckled: "If you don't know, why are you pregnant with his child again?"
The young lady sighed and said: "Every time he comes, I am confused and confused, as if I am in a dream."
Zhao Teng: "..."
