Bai Qiannuo was stunned for a moment, but since Li Qidu had stood up, she didn't have to continue talking.¤

Zhao Kai nodded with a smile and said: "The two dear friends are right. I am very sure of Han Shizhong's talents. My country needs Han Shizhong. I have never doubted this. But I also feel that Han Shizhong is the general staff officer."

The best candidate for the ministry, not the Privy Council." He sighed again and said, "It seems there is still no better candidate."

As he said this, he turned to Li Qi and said, "My dear, you still have to shoulder this heavy burden!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Hui suddenly said: "I would like to report to the emperor that I have a suitable candidate for you."

Zhao Kai exclaimed, "I wonder who Ai Qing wants to recommend?"

Qin Hui said: "Li Guang was sentenced by Daming Mansion."

Zheng Yi frowned, strange, this Li Guang is not his!

"Li Guang?"

Zhao Kai frowned for a moment and began to think.

Qin Hui continued: "Li Guang was originally just a small secretary-general in Daming Palace. When the Jin army went south, and Tong Guan, Cai You and other treacherous ministers encouraged the emperor to move to Hangzhou, Li Guang repeatedly made memorials to explain his interests.

He stated that he would stick to the Yellow River and fight to the death with the Jin army. Unfortunately, all his memorials were blocked by Liang Shicheng's treacherous minister, and they did not see the light of day until later. After the Jin army captured Daming Mansion, Li Guang became a prisoner, but he

However, Li Guang refused to rely on the Jin army and almost died because of this. Fortunately, the Jin army was in a hurry to cross the river and did not kill him. However, Li Guang was not ashamed of what the traitor Nie Hao did and cursed Nie Hao, but he was tortured for it.

, if Zong Zhifu had not raided Yanshan Mansion, I am afraid that Li Guang would not have survived to this day. After Li Guang was rescued by Zong Ze, he followed Zong Ze and governed Yanshan Mansion, and also participated in the original Yanyun War. Yun

After the Sang Alliance, Zongze strongly recommended Li Guang, so Li Guang was transferred to Daming Mansion as the general judge."

"I remembered."

Zhao Kai nodded repeatedly.

Qin Hui added: "The memorials that Li Guangshang played were still in the hands of the ministers. Judging from these memorials, this person is definitely a pillar of talent. I would like to ask the emperor to take a look at it."

"Quickly, present it."

Zhao Kai looked at it carefully and nodded repeatedly: "This person is indeed a talent!" Then he said to Li Qi: "Privy Councilor, you should also take a look. After all, this matter concerns the Privy Council. I still regard you as

opinions prevail.”

"As commanded."

Li Qi took the memorials one after another from the hands of the young eunuch. In fact, he knew that Li Guang was a talent without reading it, because history mentioned that he was a famous minister with the talents of a prime minister, and he was in Yanshan at the time.

I also met this person when he was in the government, but he was busy with too many things at the time, and he couldn't care about it for the moment. However, he still looked at it very seriously, and after careful consideration, he said: "Reporting to the emperor, I also feel that

This person is the best choice."

Qin Hui couldn't help frowning when he heard this, with a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Li Qi glanced at Qin Hui and sneered secretly, "You're just singing an oboe with me. I'm the founder of oboe singing. Your mother dares to play this trick with me. I don't understand."

Zhao Kai hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Then you also think this person is very good?"

Li Qi smiled and said: "It is most suitable for Li Guanglai to serve as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. Wei Chen agrees very much. The emperor does not know. Wei Chen feels that it is quite tiring to be in charge of the Privy Council alone, but the emperor also knows that mediocre words

, Wei Chen would rather not use it, but judging from Li Guang's memorials and analysis of the situation at that time, this person is by no means mediocre. Of course, there is a little thought in it, that is, Li Guang's surname is Li, and maybe he will still be in the future.

The reputation of the "Second Privy Councilors" will be spread. Oh, if we add the President of the Judicial Yuan and Li Qingzhao, the most talented woman of the Song Dynasty, history may also record the reputation of the "Four Lis of the Song Dynasty", which will last forever. It's not me.

Didn't the court already have Sansu, but Weichen believes that these four Li will be better than Sansu both in terms of numbers and abilities, Weichen now wants to say sorry to Su Shi, the great scholar."

Are you talking about cross talk?

Hearing Li Qi's irrelevant words, the officials couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, they were also confused. Is it really appropriate to say this at this time?

Li Gang also didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said hurriedly: "The Privy Councilor has flattered me, and Li Gang deserves it."

Li Qi sighed and said: "The President of the Judiciary is too modest, and do you think I am boasting? No, if the reputation of the 'Four Lis' really appears in future historical records, then it is conceivable that

This must be the most prosperous period of the Song Dynasty, and we are just borrowing the light of the Song Dynasty."

Li Gang was stunned for a moment, then he bowed and said: "The Privy Council has agreed, Li Gang has learned a lesson."

Zhao Kai laughed and said: "What a 'Four Li'. I also very much look forward to having this reputation in the history books in the future. Because of the reputation of the 'Four Li', I have decided to promote Li Guang to the rank of Deputy Privy Envoy immediately."

."

"The Emperor's Holy Ming."

The ministers shouted.

With the sound of retreating from the court, Zhao Kai walked out of the hall under the respectful escort of the officials.

The ministers also began to slowly exit the hall.

"Privy Envoy please."

The ones walking in the front were definitely Li Qi and Qin Hui, but when they came to the door, they stopped one after another.

Li Qi smiled and said: "Young Master Qin invites you first."

Qin Hui said: "How dare you, how dare you, kissing someone today depends entirely on the Privy Envoy, and the Privy Envoy should invite you first."

The two of them pushed each other, but the people behind were anxious, and they didn't dare to go out first.

Oh, these words sound a bit like condolences! Li Qigong cupped his hands and said: "Then I will be disrespectful."

After Li Qi and Qin Hui walked out of the hall one after another, they immediately divided into left and right groups and headed outside the hall. The momentum of the struggle was self-evident.

"Husband."

Bai Qiannuo, who came out later, ran to catch up with Li Qi and lowered his voice: "Husband, what on earth is going on?"

Li Qi smiled and said quickly: "We'll talk about it when we get back."

On the other side, Hu Yi also caught up with Qin Hui. He was also full of curiosity and said: "Young Zai, what happened just now?"

Qin Hui also had a smile on his face, but his tone was very slow and determined, "This time the Privy Councilor will definitely lose, and it will be difficult to stand up."

Zheng Yi stood on the steps and looked around, with a trace of confusion in his eyes. This situation seemed to have changed too quickly. What happened?

.......

.......

Li Qi said we would talk about it when we got back, but how could Bai Qiannuo wait until he got back? This was no small matter. As soon as he got on the carriage, he quickly asked: "Husband, what happened?"

Li Qi did not answer in a hurry, but first ordered the carriage to drive back to his house. Then he let out a long sigh, stared at Bai Qiannuo, and said, "You can see it too?"

Bai Qiannuo said: "This is not difficult to see, but the question is why is it like this?"

Li Qi sighed: "My plan may have been exposed."

"Wha--what?"

Bai Qiannuo's pupils dilated instantly, and she said in horror: "This---how is this possible?"

"This also caught me by surprise."

Li Qi shook his head and told Bai Qiannuo about Wang Yao's cousin.

Bai Qiannuo was sweating profusely and her body was swaying a little. She, who was usually mature, couldn't help but look panicked at this moment, and said: "Then husband----do you mean that the emperor knows?"

"probably."

Li Qi nodded and said: "Actually, I was lucky at first, but judging from today's events, the emperor should already know."

"Then the emperor is doing this for ---." Bai Qiannuo made a muffled sound in his throat.

Li Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Reduce my military power."

Bai Qiannuo was startled suddenly and felt a little dizzy. He grabbed Li Qi's hand anxiously and said with tears streaming down his face: "Husband, if the emperor also knows about it, it will be all over. We---we should

what to do?"

Li Qi didn't know if Bai Qiannuo looked like this during the coup, but it was really the first time he saw Bai Qiannuo look like this. She was still a woman after all. He held her hand gently,

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let anyone hurt you."

How could this simple sentence reassure Bai Qiannuo and said, "But the emperor will never let us go."

Li Qidao: "We still don't know how much the emperor knows, but even if the emperor wants to touch me, it will not be an easy task. One of our husband and wife serve as privy envoys and the other as economic envoys. The entire economic construction is in your and my hands.

Moreover, I still carry the emperor's grand plans on my shoulders. If the emperor wants to touch me, he will not dare to act rashly unless he gives a reason that can convince the people. Today, the emperor is just testing me, Deputy Privy Councilor

I should have chosen someone to take office long ago, but there has been no movement. It is probably because the emperor does not want too many people to interfere with military orders. This time is just a good time to test me. If I refuse to delegate power to my life, then the emperor will definitely be more suspicious of me.

So we will be fine for now, and I also believe that there is always a way out, and this matter has not yet entered a dead end. Even if it is a dead end, there is still a saying of 'working' in the circle."

Bai Qiannuo said: "Husband, let's escape."

Li Qi shook his head and said: "If you run away now, wouldn't you be inviting trouble? I'll go back and forth with the emperor to see if there's any room for relaxation. If not, it's not too late to run away. Humph, even if we get to this point, who will win?

We still don’t know if we lose, I still have a big amulet.”

"What amulet?"

"Wanyan Zongwang." Li Qi smiled.

"Wanyan Zongwang?"

Li Qi nodded and said: "I know the emperor very well. He is a man with great ambitions. How can a mere privy council officer be as discerning as him? His biggest concern has always been the Kingdom of Jin and Wanyan Zongwang who has humiliated him.
