He had to reseal the letter and put it back where it belonged.
After Li Dao left, Li Qiao continued to light candles. When the entire study was as bright as daylight, he sat down at the desk and began to read official documents.
As for Gao Zhiyuan's letter, he didn't take it seriously.
Over the years, he has acted very cautiously. Every time he "invents" a new food or object, he gives everyone a very reasonable reason.
Even if Gao Zhiyuan really jumps out and says that he is not the original owner, not many people will believe him.
The reason why Gao Zhiyuan dared not come forward to identify him was because Gao Zhiyuan could not explain to everyone how Gao Zhiyuan knew that he, Li Qiao, was not a human being.
Gao Zhiyuan couldn't explain clearly, so others naturally didn't believe him.
Gao Zhiyuan resurrected his life, still dreaming of being a high-ranking official and enjoying all the wealth in the world. He was not completely sure, so he refused to stand up and identify him.
But now that Gao Zhiyuan suddenly became a Taoist priest, if Gao Zhiyuan spoke again, more people would believe him.
If Sheng Hong believed it, it would be troublesome.
Therefore, there is no need for Gao Zhiyuan to live in the world.
Moreover, when Gao Zhiyuan wrote to these believers, he made it clear that unless something happened to him, Gao Zhiyuan, these believers must not open the letter privately.
This is convenient for him.
The person is killed, the letter is robbed, and that's it.
Li Qiao didn't take Gao Zhiyuan seriously and concentrated on business matters.
After a while, Tao Zhu came.
Tao Zhu was carrying a large food box in his hand. The couple had dinner in the study, and then Tao Zhu returned to the greenhouse, while he continued to deal with official documents.
He didn't mention a word about Gao Zhiyuan to Tao Zhu.
When he went to court the next day, he would do whatever he was supposed to do.
There is little rain this year, not only in Shengjing, but also in the twelve provinces of Dasheng. Every province is short of rain, so this year's harvest is not very good.
But there are high-yield, drought-tolerant crops such as sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes, so farmers can still have enough to eat.
However, after all, the harvest was not good, so he discussed with Tao Zhu and reduced the rent of his tenants.
Anyway, it’s not worth the money.
In the busy schedule, time flies by.
The holiday soon came again. On this day, he did not take the whole family out to play. It rained suddenly yesterday and the weather suddenly became cold. This kind of weather was not suitable for going out.
After spending a day with Tao Zhu and a few other kids in his house, he returned to his study in the evening and prepared to work overtime.
Li Dao is here again.
"Master, I found a booklet in the crack of the wall of Gao Zhiyuan's house. The booklet was wrapped in kraft paper. It looked very precious. I took the booklet back."
Li Dao respectfully handed the palm-sized pamphlet to Li Qiao.
Li Qiao took it and asked, "Are there any other abnormalities in his family?"
"There are a lot of Taoist books in his room, as well as some talismans, magical tools and other objects needed for doing things. I looked carefully and found nothing unusual."
"Except for this pamphlet in the crack in the wall."
Li Dao shook his head.
The house where Gao Zhiyuan and his son live in Niutou Village is more than 20 years old. It is built of adobe bricks, with cracked walls and air leakage.
This is convenient for Gao Zhiyuan to hide things.
He didn't find anything unusual at that time, but Gao Zhiyuan did have evil intentions for his master, so he searched carefully again, under the bed, and touched the adobe bricks on the ground one by one, and finally touched the gaps in the wall. That's when I discovered this booklet.
"Well done."
Li Qiao praised, then lowered his head and looked at the booklet in his hand.
This booklet was made of the cheapest straw paper. The paper was yellowish. When you opened the first page, there was no writing on it.
On the second page, there are a few lines written on it.
Just one glance made Li Qiao narrow his eyes.
The first line contains a few simple words:
In the twenty-fourth year of Shengping, Sheng Hong died and the eldest prince succeeded to the throne.
Chapter 194 What happened in the previous life, fortunately, grateful
In the twenty-fourth year of Shengping's reign, Shenghong died? !
Sheng Hong died?
This year is the thirteenth year of Shengping, so Shenghong only has eleven years left to live? ? ?
Moreover, is it really the eldest prince who finally ascends the throne? !
Li Qiao stared at the word "eldest prince" and felt huge waves in his heart. His previous guess was correct. The seventh prince really helped the eldest prince get the throne!
So what is Gao Zhiyuan doing sneakily approaching the Sixth Prince?
But he didn't have time to think too much, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the second line of words.
The second line reads: Sheng Zhijian served as emperor for three months and died of illness. The third prince Sheng Shiyu ascended the throne. It is said that the seventh prince assisted the government.
Li Qiao: "..."
The eldest prince's body... can survive another eleven years, which is not bad.
"I heard" that the seventh prince is assisting the government?
Has Gao Zhiyuan forgotten what happened in his previous life, or is it because he was a small person and had no access to high-level affairs in his previous life, so he can only "hear about it"?
He looked down again.
The third line reads:
The sixth prince should have died in the fifteenth year of Shengping, at the hands of barbarians.
Li Qiao: "..."
The sixth prince is dead?
Or die at the hands of barbarians? !
Could it be that the Sixth Prince really went to the front line?
No, no, no, that's not the point.
The point is that the Hu people's attack was repelled last year, and now Gao Zhiyuan writes that the Sixth Prince died at the hands of the Hu people, then the Hu people will make another invasion in the next two years!
The second page contained only these lines, and he hurriedly turned to the third page.
What caught his eye was a line of words that made all his organs tremble:
In the next ten years or so, the weather will be severe cold, severe droughts, and frequent floods.
This line of words is suffixed with several ink dots. Gao Zhiyuan must have been thinking when he wrote it. After the ink dots, there are words with a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, no beginning or end, and accompanied by the mark of correction:
Jibei Province, Dongshan Province, and Xishan Province are experiencing severe drought.
The Yellow River in Dongshan Province burst its banks and changed its course.
I heard that it is snowing in the south and the lakes and the Yangtze River are freezing.
In the fifteenth year of Shengping's reign, a rare large locust plague affected Hexi Prefecture and was said to have spread to three provinces.
this……
Li Qiao stared at these lines, gritted his teeth and secretly took a breath, trying to steady his mind. Li Qiao was still there, so he couldn't show his emotions.
He pursed his lips and looked at page four.
The fourth page still has no beginning or end. It should be that Gao Zhiyuan is thinking about various major events in his previous life:
The weather was cold, and the barbarians invaded every year. I heard that once they almost broke through the city gate of Shengjing.
I heard there is plague in the south.
On the fifth page, there are still similar words, but Tao Zhu is mentioned:
In the 19th year of the Sheng Ping Dynasty, there was so much snow in Pingcheng that the two of us almost froze to death. We went to find that bitch Tao Zhu to borrow some food and cotton-padded clothes, but the bitch actually let his dog bite me. If I had known this, I couldn't let this bitch leave the Gao family at all costs!
This paragraph was obviously filled with great anger and annoyance. The writing was relatively heavy, and the ink stains soaked the poor quality straw paper.
Li Qiao stared at this paragraph three times. He lowered his eyes and turned to page six.
He could not accurately deduce the relationship between Gao Zhiyuan and Tao Zhu in his previous life from this passage, but no matter what, it was a matter of his previous life.
Brother Zhu had suffered so much in his previous life, and he went to the Gao family again. How much torture had Brother Zhu suffered...
With Brother Zhu's temperament, he could only behave like letting a dog bite someone.
His bamboo brother is so kind.
But it doesn't matter, he will avenge the revenge of the previous life.
On the seventh page, he is still scolding Tao Zhu:
In the 20th year of Shengping, there was a severe drought. There was no harvest in the fields. My mother was seriously ill. I went to find that bitch again. Although I said that we were not really married, this bitch made an engagement with me and has been with me ever since. Calling mother, mother is half of his elder.
But this bitch Tao Zhu not only refused to save me, but also let the dog bite me!
This bitch would rather give porridge to other people than save his mother. He deserves to go to a hundred levels of hell!
How could God let this bitch save the Seventh Prince? This opportunity should be mine, it's mine!
And in this life, she actually married Li Qiao, a lonely ghost who didn’t know where she came from. She’s dirty, bitch, bitch!
In my previous life, I never married. I thought I was a chaste and fierce man, but I didn't know that he was a bad guy who would open his legs when he saw a man!
The noble person in my life?
Too expensive!
