Qi Lu's face was smiling, and his words were gentle, but the little temple man named Chiu could not laugh at all.

Chi'er's slender body was trembling. Without saying a word, she knelt down in front of Qi Lu and kowtowed hard.

Qi Lu seemed to ask knowingly, saying, "What do you mean?"

Chi'er continued to kowtow, and her tears instantly slid down, crying sobbing, and said, "Tao Fu, Grand Tutor, Grand Tutor, please spare your life... Grand Tutor, please spare your life!"

Qi Lu smiled even more, still with a look of asking knowingly, saying, "Lu really doesn't understand, what do you mean? Is it difficult for you? Why do you want to spare your life?"

Zi'er gritted his teeth, seemed to make up his heart, and cried and said, "Tao Fu, Tai Fu, please spare me, Xiao Chen is not... it was not intentional. Lord Sima's talisman, yes, it was the little minister who stole the talisman, and then he stuffed it on others when the person was not paying attention..."

When Qi Lu heard Chi'er admit it in person, he nodded. Those who were watching just now thought that it was the middle-aged temple man who deliberately framed the small temple man in order to show his charm in front of the nobles and officials. Because the middle-aged temple man had a criminal record and always relied on his favor and bullying others, no one stood on his side this time.

Qi Lu did not know Chi'er, nor did he know the middle-aged man in the temple, but his nose was brilliant, especially he was familiar with this kind of pepper.

This nobleman from the Sima Department likes to use the flowers of the pepper tree to incense every day, so his things carry this elegant fragrance. Qi Lu's nose is very sharp, and he also smells the fragrance on his body, so he has this guess.

Chi could not resist the pressure, and admitted her mistake, and cried and said, "I beg for the mercy of the Grand Tutor, ask for the mercy of the Grand Tutor, Xiao minister... Xiao minister just wants to teach the temple's people a lesson. He bullies the palace servants a lot on weekdays, Xiao minister... I saw that I have a chance today, so..."

Qi Lu just heard from the palace people that middle-aged temple people like to bully people in their daily lives and are lazy and should be taught a lesson.

Qi Lu looked up and down at the crying miserable little temple man and said, "You are very skillful."

Chi'er stole something under his nose, deliberately letting the middle-aged temple man see it, and then reported himself, but the middle-aged temple man did not notice it at all. When Chi'er stuffed the talisman to him again, it was simply unaware of it. Therefore, Qi Lu said that Chi'er was quick and easy.

Chier whispered: "Xiaochen... Xiaochen lived in the market when he was a child, and he was also forced by his livelihood. He learned these things about stealing. Since Xiaochen entered the palace, he has never stolen this time. He also asked the Grand Tutor to be kind to him!"

Qi Lu didn't want to make it difficult for him, so he said, "I won't be the case."

When Chi heard this, she kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Thank you, thank you for your kindness."

Qi Lu still has some serious things to do, but he was just a small departure from the road and returned to Gaomen. Heibei was just on the offside. Heibei came down from the post on duty and saw Qi Lu at a glance. He had a serious and cold face on his face. He put on a layer of glory in an instant, and immediately ran over and said, "Brother Qi, are you here to find me?"

Qi Lu: "..." The pressure is so great...

Qi Lu laughed dryly, took out the two food gifts he gave to Heihou, and gave them to Heihou, saying, "Actually..."

Heibei was very pleased when he saw Qi Lu, but when he saw Qi Lu bringing the gift he gave back, his smile immediately froze on his face. Before Qi Lu could speak, he immediately understood everything and said, "It's Heibei that it's too hard for him. Brother Qi doesn't have to take these peppercorns and bitter vegetables to my return gifts to Brother Qi. I will repay Brother Qi for taking care of me these days. One code is one code, and Brother Qi must accept these return gifts."

Qi Lu didn't expect that Heibei was so understanding. He was simply a little angel with xl number. He refused love letters and could even take the gift away.

Qi Lu happily hugged the Sichuan pepper and bitter herbs, and returned to the Taishi room of the Ludian Palace. The emperor was reviewing the documents. When he saw how Qi Lu went out and how he came back, he immediately frowned and said, "Tao Fu, why have you brought these back again?"

Qi Lu said with a smile: "Son of the age, please rest assured. Lu has clearly rejected the little gentleman, but the little gentleman said that these gifts are to repay Lu's care and do not need to be returned."

Emperor: "..." The Grand Tutor is still sincere.

Although the emperor was a little helpless, Qi Lu had already rejected Heibei's love rival, which was considered unsatisfactory.

Early the next morning, Qi Lu rarely got up very early. Because it was very late in winter, it was not yet bright at this time, and Ji Lin had not been able to turn from a little Tu Gou back to the emperor. The emperor was like a sleeping beauty, lying quietly on the couch, putting his hands in front of him, looking really handsome and well-behaved, while the little Tu Gou was quietly lying beside him, still sleeping soundly, snoring, and his little ears were shrunk from time to time.

Qi Lu held his cheek and looked at the "Sleeping Beauty" for a while. It was still early, so he just got up to have breakfast. When it was done, it was dawn.

Qi Lu got up and changed his clothes, quickly left the room, and went straight to the kitchen. Because it was not yet dawn, there were few palace servants on the road and it was quiet all the way.

Qi Lu was heading towards the kitchen, but unexpectedly he met an acquaintance on the road. Isn’t it the one Qi Lu rejected yesterday?

Heibu was wearing military uniform and followed the team behind him. It seemed that he was patrolling. Heibu was still guarding the gate at Gaomen yesterday, but he didn't expect that he was patrolling early this morning.

When Heibei saw Qi Lu, he did not become disgusted because of yesterday's refusal and said, "Brother Qi, did you get up so early?"

Qi Lu said suspiciously: "You are...?"

Heibei scratched the back of his head and said, "Heibei has been transferred to his post today. He will patrol the palace from now on and will no longer be on duty at Gaomen."

It is said that it is a transfer, but it should be a promotion. Few people know about Heibei's background, but Heibei is upright and upright, so it is reasonable to be promoted. Today is his first "morning shift" and is patrolling the team.

Qi Lu said: "Lu goes to the kitchen and will not delay your patrol."

The kitchen was not far away. As soon as Qi Lu was about to leave, he heard a whimpering sound coming from the kitchen. At first he thought it was the wind, but it was windy in winter, but soon he felt it was not like it. The whimpering sound seemed like a crying sound.

"Bang--"

Then there was a loud noise coming from the direction of the kitchen. Not to mention the alert black back, Qi Lu heard the sound. This was the palace. Although the kitchen was remote, there shouldn't be such a big change.

Heibo frowned, reached out to press the sword around his waist, waved his hand, and immediately rushed over with the Hu Benjun, and Qi Lu followed behind. Sure enough, the sound came from the kitchen.

When everyone stepped into the kitchen, they saw a lot of firewood rolling on the floor of the kitchen. The loud noise just now should have been the sound of firewood being knocked over. On the 708th floor of the firewood, a slender figure fell into the middle of the firewood and fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

The man's fair face was swollen, half of his fair face, blood was hanging on the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were cracked, and he was in a mess. Qi Luding saw that this person was familiar. Isn't it the clever "thief" he met yesterday? He couldn't get up from the ground, but someone had already been picked up from the ground.

The man cursed that it was the middle-aged temple man who was framed by Chi'er yesterday and was arrested by Chi'er and said, "Little bastard! Is it a good thing you did? Do you want to frame me? Spit! I didn't expect that I went to Chi'er yesterday and came out today? If I don't give you some colors, you don't know who will decide in this palace?"

The middle-aged temple man said, grabbed a piece of red firewood and poked it into Chi'er's face.

"Stop!" Heibo rushed over and saw the scene and immediately shouted.

The kitchen was nowhere to be the deserted place. Because of the remoteness, the chefs had not yet started working. The middle-aged temple people were sure that there was no one here, so they caught Chi'er here to teach her a lesson, but they didn't know that someone was hit by someone.

Black back rushed in with big strodes, narrowed his eyes and said, "What are you doing here?"

Qi Lu also walked in from behind, smiled gently and said, "Lu also wants to hear who is in this palace."

The middle-aged temple people only saw a group of Hu Ben Army at the beginning. He didn't know the power in Heibei's family, so he just thought he was an ordinary Hu Ben Army. He relied on his rich connections and didn't take it seriously. However, he thought that a Taifu came in behind him!

The middle-aged temple man became timid in an instant, and quickly bowed and said, "Little minister...Little minister..."

Qi Lu smiled, but his tone suddenly became cold. He had been a tutor for so long, and he still had an air of an official position and said in a stern manner: "Say it."

The middle-aged temple man was so scared that his knees softened. He knelt on the ground in an instant, kowtowed and said, "When I go back to the Taifu, the emperor will naturally have the final say in this palace."

"Is that right?" Qi Lu said lightly: "Liu listened to your tone and thought you had the final say."

"Taifu...Taifu..." The middle-aged man in the temple squeezed out a smile awkwardly and said, "Taifu, you are smirking."

Qi Lu gently brushed his robe and said, "Does this Grand Tutor seem to be joking with you?"

The middle-aged temple man encountered a nail this time and quickly surrendered and said, "The Grand Tutor is kind, the Grand Tutor is kind, the little minister will never dare to do it again."

Qi Lu said: "I have heard a lot about bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Didn't you go to prison yesterday? Why did you release it so quickly? It's so good that your connections are wider than those of me, the Grand Tutor. Otherwise, would you introduce your connections to this Grand Tutor?"

The middle-aged temple man said repeatedly: "I don't dare, but I don't dare! Grand Tutor spares my life!"

The sky gradually became brighter, and Ji Lin changed from a little Tugo back to the emperor. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Qi Lu had gone somewhere, and the soft couch around him was cold, which meant that he had been leaving for a while.

Ji Lin got up to change his clothes, and the temple man smiled attentively and said, "Emperor, Taifu Qi went to the kitchen and said that he had gotten up early today. He specially prepared to make a breakfast dish for the emperor himself. When the emperor woke up, he could have a hot breakfast!"
