"Yang Shiqi, Yang Shiqi..." Li Qing sneered and stepped forward, "If you don't teach me well, I will teach you, no thanks."

With that said, he stepped on Yang Ji under his feet.

"If you dare to touch me, you will definitely not be able to leave alive." Yang Ji was stepped on in the face and yelled frantically.

Li Qing touched his nose, raised his foot and stepped on his arm.

"Crack...!"

"Ahh——!!"

Li Qing raised his foot and stepped on his other arm.

Next, there are the legs.

After the process, Yang Ji had passed out.

The customers in the restaurant had already dispersed. Although it was a big melon, they didn't dare to eat it.

At this time, the shopkeeper and his wife who were away from home hurried over. When they saw this situation, they immediately knelt down.

"It's life-threatening, it's life-threatening...!" The shop owner was so anxious that he slapped his thigh, and the wife of the shop owner burst into tears.

They knew very well who Yang Ji was. After this incident, their family would no longer have a foothold.

The servants also realized that something big had happened, and their eyes were dull. They wanted to go back to their master, but they didn't dare to speak.

Li Qing raised his feet and said to a group of followers: "Tell him that if he wants to return to normal, just wait at home honestly. I will come back in two months, but if he continues to do evil, I will kill him when I come back."

Li Qing said it easily, but these followers didn't dare to breathe.

They believe that Li Qing dares to do it and can do it.

After all, Master Yang Shiqi's name was announced, but he didn't take it seriously at all.

Although he couldn't see through Li Qing's background, he also understood that he had kicked the steel plate this time.

They knew that their master was not invincible in the court.

A group of people left in a hurry with Yang Ji, not daring to let out a single fart.

Li Qing clapped his hands, turned back to the shop owner and his wife and said, "Don't worry, he won't be able to get out of bed within a few months."

"What will happen in a few months?" the landlady cried, "What a good man, you did an act of justice, but you hurt us."

The shopkeeper was a shrewd man. He knew that since Li Qing dared to attack Yang Ji after knowing Yang Ji's background, his status must be terrifyingly high.

He quickly said: "Help people till the end, send Buddha to the west. This little old man can't stay here any longer. Please help me find a way for my family to survive."

Li Qing thought for a while and said, "Answer me a few questions first."

Seeing that there was a turn of events, the shopkeeper immediately nodded: "Ask me, good man, and I will tell you everything I know."

"Yang Ji wants to marry your daughter, right?" Li Qing asked.

"yes."

"Why did you refuse?" Li Qing was puzzled. "Although he is a scoundrel, he is also a bachelor of the cabinet and a minister of the Ministry of War. Even if he marries as a concubine, his life will not be worse?"

The landlady cried and said: "You good man, you don't know that Yang Ji is simply not a human being. He beats or scolds the concubines, and even beats them to death. He has dozens of lives on his body!"

"This is too much." Zhang Slutty frowned and said, "Qingzi, you were too gentle just now."

Li Qing smiled and said, "Master, don't worry, you can't run away from him."

After a pause, he said to the shopkeeper and his wife, "Let's put this shop out, and then go to the Yongqing Marquis Mansion in Jinling to find a gentleman named Zhu."

The shopkeeper asked tentatively: "Can a good man write a letter or something?"

"Okay, bring a pen and paper."

Bringing paper and pen, Li Qing quickly wrote a letter of recommendation and said: "Go there, open a restaurant and live a good life. No one will make things difficult for you."

Now the government has no strict requirements on road guidance. As long as you take care of it, going to Jinling is not a problem at all.

The landlady said timidly: "What if the government doesn't let us leave?"

"That's not possible." Li Qing said with a smile: "If I dare to fight Yang Ji for you, the government will not embarrass you because of Yang Ji. Besides, Yang Ji has to rely on me to save him."

The shopkeeper is a sensible person and kowtows repeatedly to express his thanks.



The master and apprentice left the restaurant and rushed to Longhu Mountain.

Zhang Slutty asked: "How do you plan to solve this matter?"

"This is not a problem. On the contrary, after the disciple enters the court, this is a sharp weapon." Li Qing said with a smile, "After listening to Master's Tai Chi, the disciple has a deeper understanding of politics."

"That's good." Zhang Sloppy also smiled, "The old man doesn't know much about politics and can't teach you anything. You just have to make the most of it yourself."

After a pause, he asked curiously: "Is that beast really that useful?"

"Yes." Li Qing smiled and said: "It is definitely a powerful tool to bring order to chaos!"



The master and apprentice did not ride horses or sedans, but relied on one pair of legs, but they were extremely fast. In less than a month, they reached the foot of Longhu Mountain.

"Just send it here. Master, just go up there alone." Zhang Slutty said.

Li Qing was afraid that he would suffer a loss, "Let's master and apprentice together."

"Don't worry, one old man is enough. It would be embarrassing to lead a disciple up the mountain." Zhang said domineeringly, "It's the same with or without you. Have you ever seen the old man suffer?"

Li Qing thought about it and said: "Then you have to take it easy and try not to be rough if you can."

Zhang gave him a dirty look and said, "The old man is a civilized man."

You are just a gangster... Li Qing did not dare to say it out loud, "The disciple is gone. Master has had enough fun. Don't forget to go to the capital."

"Well, screw you."

"..." Li Qing touched his nose and said, "Master, please go up the mountain. This disciple is not in a hurry."

Zhang Sloppy said very casually, "Okay, I'm leaving as my teacher!"

After watching the old man disappear from sight, Li Qing paused for a while before turning around and leaving.

Li Qing returned to Ji'an and found Yang Ji.

This man is of great use, at least he can't be allowed to die now.

After some treatment, Yang Ji gradually improved. Now he is angry and afraid of Li Qing.

After testing, he discovered that Li Qingzhen knew his father's power.

Knowing who his father is and still daring to do this to him is enough to prove that Li Qing is extraordinary.

Yang Ji is a bad person, but he is not a fool.

"who are you?"

"You don't need to know." Li Qing said disdainfully and left calmly.

Yang Ji was stunned and didn't dare to order anyone to stop him, so he just watched him go.



Half a month later, Jinling.

Yongqinghou Mansion.

Li Qing knocked on his door.

After a while, the servant opened the door and said, "Who are you looking for?"

"Zhu Wen, Master Zhu." Li Qing said.

"Wait a moment." Seeing Li Qing mention his master's name by name, the servant's attitude obviously improved a lot, and he left in a hurry.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, Zhu Yunwen hurried over with his servants.

Seeing that Li Qing was really here, Zhu Yunwen looked overjoyed: "Master... let's go into the room to talk."

When the brothers came to the living room, Zhu Yunwen asked, "Where is the master?"

"Don't worry, the old man has recovered from his participation in nature." Li Qing said with a smile: "He went to Longhu Mountain, and he will come back to you when he has had enough fun."

Hearing this, Zhu Yunwen breathed a long sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."

Li Qing looked at Zhu Yunwen and said with a smile: "It looks like you are in good physical condition!"

"Fortunately." Zhu Yunwen also smiled, "I can't imitate Master's skills, but during those years in the mountains, I did develop a strong body."

"That's good." Li Qing nodded, "By the way, where is Li Jinglong?"

"He's okay, he just talks about you a lot." Zhu Yunwen sighed, "He has a bad mouth, but he's a real person. He misses you very much."

Li Qing was silent for a moment, not sure whether he should confess to him or not, and asked first: "How is the court situation?"

"I don't know much about the details, but... I'm not optimistic." Zhu Yunwen asked, "Senior brother, what are your plans?"

Li Qing thought for a while, "For long-term development, I want to take the imperial examination. After all, I am old enough. With my previous status, even if I enter the court, I will not be able to stay for two years."

"Starting all over again... it will take a lot of time!" Zhu Yunwen frowned.

"Don't worry, I have a backup plan." Li Qing said, "If there is an emergency, I will confess my identity to someone and take over quickly."

"who?"

"Yu Qian!"

Zhu Yunwen nodded lightly: "I don't know much about the details of the court situation, but Yu Qian is indeed a hardliner."

After a pause, he added: "In that case, senior brother does not need to take the imperial examination and can just enter the court directly."

"How can you enter the court without taking the imperial examination?" Li Qing was puzzled.

Zhu Yunwen smiled bitterly: "In the first year of Zhengtong, the cabinet headed by Yang Shiqi advocated the implementation of the recommendation system."

"What?" Li Qing's face changed drastically and he cursed: "You are worthy of being Fang Xiaoru's student, you can do such a thing!"

He narrowed his eyes: It seems that the situation in the DPRK is more serious than I thought.

"In other words, you can buy an official with money now?"

"Absolutely," Zhu Yunwen nodded: "However, there are not many people buying offices."

"Oh? Why?"

Zhu Yunwen said: "The imperial court is very strict against officials' families doing business. Yu Qian advocates that all officials who do business directly or indirectly should be executed directly."

"That's okay...but we still have to change. The current crackdown is so severe that it will be hard to say in the future." Li Qing didn't believe that Yu Qian didn't know the harm of doing this.

He understood that Yu Qian was unable to stop it, so he settled for the next best thing and chose to compromise.

We can't wait any longer. From the provincial examination to the palace examination, it will take at least three years. Who knows what the court will look like in three years?

"I want to recommend him to the court." Li Qing said.

Zhu Yunwen nodded: "However, I can't do this. I have to find Li Jinglong."

Li Qing pondered for a moment: "Okay, let him come!"
