Chapter 288 The traitor sells again and again

Qin Xiangguo narrowed his eyes and said angrily: "Marquis Zhenwei, what do you mean?" At the same time, the two expert guards behind him immediately moved and took a step forward, one on the left and the other on the right to protect Qin Xiangguo. The swords all came out of the body.

The scene was on the verge of breaking out. At this moment, the door to the private room next door was suddenly pushed open, and a man walked out and stepped forward with a smile.

"Hahaha, Mr. Prime Minister, calm down. It's my fault for disturbing Mr. Prime Minister. I admire Mr. Prime Minister very much and have been asking to see Mr. Prime Minister for a long time, so I asked Mr. Marquis to help me. Don't blame me, Mr. Prime Minister."

Qin Xiangguo waved his hand, and the two guards ordered him to stop. They immediately put away their swords and retreated behind Qin Xiangguo to prepare for the attack.

Qin Xiangguo looked at the person carefully. He was unfamiliar. He was dressed like a scholar in Tsing Yi, about thirty years old, with slightly dark complexion, two mustaches, a high nose and deep eyes, and he may have foreign blood.

Qin Xiangguo stared closely at the visitor and asked: "Who are you?"

Qijier bowed his head after imitating the Dajing etiquette, and said with a familiar smile: "Hahaha, Prime Minister, I am Qiji, a mere little person, not worth mentioning to the Prime Minister. All I need to know is that I am serving as my master's son and as my prime minister." Come.”

Qin Xiangguo raised his eyebrows in disdain, "Oh? Come here for the truth? Ha!"

Qijier didn't care at all about Qin Xiangguo's attitude, and the smile on his face remained.

"Oh, my, Mr. Prime Minister, please don't be upset. Come on, Mr. Prime Minister, please take a seat and talk to me if you have anything to say. As for you, Mr. Marquis, the private room next door has carefully prepared wine, food, singing and dancing for Mr. Hou. Please take your time, Mr. Hou. Enjoy.”

Meeting Qijier's eyes, Zhenweihou immediately woke up and secretly cursed this guy for crossing the river and burning bridges. However, thinking that the visitor knew some shady things behind his back, he naturally chose to have a toast and hurriedly raised his hands to the two of them. , the person retreated, just wanting to quickly take the benefits and stay away from right and wrong.

When Zhenwei Hou left, Qin Xiangguo spoke first, "What a mere little man. He is so talented. He can actually make the powerful Marquis Dajing be used by you. Who are you and who is your master? Come to me." What is the purpose of Dajing?”

Qijier held the pot and poured a cup of tea for Qin Xiangguo. He pushed the cup forward and smiled, "Don't be upset, Prime Minister. I'm so angry that it hurts you. I have no ill intentions. I'm just here to help the Prime Minister." I’m just giving you a favor.”

As he spoke, Qin Xiangguo waved away the tea he offered without taking any precautions. Qijier raised his hand and tapped it three times. Then the door of the private room was opened, and there were twenty powerful people outside, in groups of two. , carrying ten large boxes half as tall as a person and filing in.

Qin Xiangguo became more and more puzzled, squinting and watching every move of the person in front of him. As the box fell to the ground, Qijier waved his hand again, and the people carrying the box moved together. The master and servant of Qin Xiangguo, who had been on guard just now, saw a golden light shining in front of them.

Good guy, there are ten boxes, six of them are full of glittering gold ingots, and the remaining four are full of jewels.

The two guards had followed Qin Xiangguo and had seen a lot, and they couldn't help but take a breath when they saw so many gold and silver treasures.

Qin Xiangguo, who was a very corrupt person behind his back, could still sit still. He snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "What do you mean by this? Humph, are you trying to bribe the prime minister with just dirt?"

Qijier waved his hand to send the man carrying the box away. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He said with a smile: "The Prime Minister misunderstood. I came here with sincerity. These are just a thank you gift from my master. They are just a request to the Prime Minister." Just doing some trivial things.”

"The thief hides his head and shows his tail. Who is he? No matter how small or big the matter is, do you think he will respond?" "Haha, the prime minister is well-informed and looks down on these things. But, the prime minister, you can't help it this time. You shouldn’t, after all, twenty-five years ago, when your late emperor was still alive, there was a battle in Cangzhou in the northwest..." As he spoke, Qijier took out an envelope and slapped it on the table.

When Qin Xiangguo saw the envelope that was obviously his notes when he was young, his color suddenly changed, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab it, but Qijier remained unmoved, sipping his tea and looking at Qin Xiangguo with a chuckle.

"Prime Minister, it's just an envelope. The letter inside is kept securely, and I'm not afraid if I lose one. The Prime Minister originally wrote it myself, and I have many more. You can do as you like."

Qin Xiangguo was shocked and confused, "Are you from Xita?"

Qijier shook his head, "Master, don't guess, it doesn't matter who I am, what matters is why I am here."

"Why?"

Qijier slowly put down the tea cup and said: "Of course I am here to cooperate with the Prime Minister! Don't worry, my Lord is very sincere, and he is not against the Prime Minister. As long as the Prime Minister agrees to do a small favor for my Lord , in the aftermath of what happened twenty years ago, my lord worked hard to help the Prime Minister settle it. Not only did he clear up all the troubles for the Prime Minister, but also these..." He pointed to the ten large boxes on the ground, "It was all my lord who gave the Prime Minister Thank you very much.”

Qin Xiangguo was so angry that he really didn't expect that his carelessness more than 20 years ago was still known to people today, and it was not a good thing at first glance.

The most hateful thing is that the other party knows that he is greedy for money and uses it as a blackmail. This is very annoying.

Qin Xiangguo stood up slightly, with bulging veins on his forehead, but after all, he was an old man, and after being an official for many years, he would not be so restless. He lost his composure and turned around, sat down, picked up the tea bowl handed by the other party, and drank it with confidence. One mouthful and a smile.

"Oh, they say it happened more than 20 years ago. The late emperor has passed away and His Majesty is now in charge. The truth is that he is no longer the poor scholar who was squeezed out of the official position more than 20 years ago. The so-called evidence in your mouth , Why can't it be that you are upright and reject the deliberate conspiracy of you and others? My Lord is wise, how can I believe you?"

"The Prime Minister's words are meaningless. Is your Majesty really as wise as the Prime Minister said? I guess that's not the case, right? If he is wise, why did he abandon the capital, the city and the people and flee? If he is wise, why? Putting the blame on the Prime Minister? Since arriving in the south, your good Majesty has been targeting the Prime Minister’s party and has never stopped weakening your power, right?”

"Ha!"

Qin Xiangguo was frightened and replied with a sneer on his face, but he secretly wondered who the visitor was and why he knew the court so clearly.

But he didn't want to think that an emperor who was afraid of death would naturally bring out ministers who were greedy for money and afraid of death.

With a lot of money to clear the way, and Hu Di's secret reports on the Dajing spies over the years, how could he not catch these moths?

One brings two, two spits out three, this is not a long list, whether they want to know or not, they all know it, and they are still looking for the most powerful person among these messages to use for themselves.

It was also a coincidence that they chose Qin Xiangguo at a glance. Who knew that this guy had betrayed the country back then?

When Qin Xiangguo looked at him silently, Qijier smiled contentedly.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I advise you not to hesitate or doubt. Our hearts are very sincere and we know that you have doubts and plans. In fact, if this transaction goes through, both you and I will benefit. If the Prime Minister is willing, my Lord will In addition to the two conditions given previously, I am also willing to Help the Prime Minister to go further, you say, if your foolish emperor is deposed, and the Prime Minister supports the young master to ascend the throne, get involved in politics, and even go further... Then what the Prime Minister did in the past and today is still a problem for you? What about Mr. Xiang?”
