Qin Mubai told Li Ke about Xue Rengui's situation.
After listening, Li Ke couldn't help but brighten his eyes: "You mean, he is...white now?"
"Isn't it different?" Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "From the demeanor, he is by no means like a mountain villager. More importantly, his martial arts is really outstanding."
"Better than you?" Li Ke asked.
"You don't have to compare with me." Qin Mubai said, "Even Lu Guocheng Zhijie is not his opponent."
"What? No!" Li Ke sighed in surprise, couldn't help turning his head to look at Xue Rengui a few more times, and whispered, "Guogong Lu and your father, but they were famous in my father's Qin palace back then. Tigers and lions, heroes of the world!"
"Can't be wrong." Qin Mubai nodded lightly, and said calmly, "It is estimated that only my father can match it."
"So amazing..." Li Ke took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming.
"His Royal Highness, I know what you are thinking." Qin Mubai smiled softly, "I invited him to Chang'an from the rural land of Longmen, Jiangzhou. The purpose is to promote him. Give him a background. But he has a very high spirit and has never promised me to go to Baiqi."
"He didn't even go to Baiqi, so what kind of official position does he want?" Li Ke couldn't help but asked in confusion.
"I don't know." Qin Mubai shook his head, "Perhaps what he wants is not a big official position, but a...sense of accomplishment."
"Sense of accomplishment?" Li Ke shook his head puzzled.
"In other words, he doesn't want to be favored by others, but wants to find a way out by his own ability." Qin Mubai said.
"That's it...I know." Li Ke smiled mysteriously and whispered, "Mu Bai, do you think I have any hope of getting him under his command?"
"You can try, but don't hope too much." Qin Mubai said.
Li Ke lightly nodded his head thoughtfully. After a moment of silence, he said: "The master of my mansion is dead, especially the generals who lack the unique side. The situation has become more serious since you left. Last time we ordered When I went to Jiangzhou, I left Yuwen Hongtai and Yin Yang to guard the gate in Chang'an, and no one was available at hand. There was only one Quan Wanji to condemn, but after all, he was a literary official who did not use military affairs. When it comes to the military, I feel stretched. In recent days, I have been thinking about following the example of my father’s promulgation of seeking talents, recruiting officials from the royal palace, mainly military generals. Regardless of background, talent is the best choice. What do you think? ?"
Qin Mubai thought for a while and said, "But if you do this, will you be a taboo?"
Li Ke smiled and said, "It shouldn't be. I have almost faded out of the court now. The people in Zongzheng Temple and the Ministry of Warfare officials will not send me officials and generals, and I will not be allowed to do it myself. How many people please? Originally, the Prince's Mansion had the right to appoint officials of rank 4 and below. But I would also ask for the permission of my father in advance, so that he would not think that I was trying to trap people and help with bad intentions."
"This will do." Qin Mubai smiled knowingly with him, and said, "This is an opportunity for Xue Rengui. I will indirectly recommend him to apply for your house."
"Thank you so much, Mu Bai. Come, let us have a toast!" Li Ke raised his cup with excitement.
"You are polite." Qin Mubai smiled slightly and clinked a drink with him.
In fact, Qin Mubai thought very clearly in his heart. The reason why he recommended Xue Rengui to Li Ke was not because of his intention to flatter him, or because of his affection.
On the contrary, he did it intentionally!
After the Jiangzhou case, Qin Mubai and Li Ke had a tacit understanding, and they had more trust and understanding between each other. More importantly, Qin Mubai is invisible, always more unified with Li Ke's interests and stand. Between the two, there seems to be an invisible bond connecting each other.
If you lose, you will lose, and you will be prosperous.
Furthermore, after returning to Beijing this time, Qin Mubai felt like he was doing his best in Baiqi because of the trouble with Princess Gaoyang. The emperor put it nicely that he gave Qin Mubai a long holiday to let him go home for a New Year's rest. In fact, he was buying more time for Li Junxian, who was about to take over Baiqi, and preparing to replace Qin Mubai.
In fact, even if the emperor didn't do this, Qin Mubai wanted to leave Baiqi himself. This job is thankless and troublesome. More importantly, because of Princess Gaoyang, his identity has become very sensitive now, and it is no longer suitable to stay in the harem as a errand.
Rather than waiting to be kicked away, it is better to take the initiative to find a way out. If he leaves Baiqi and the imperial palace, Qin Mubai has two outlets: one is rising and falling, and he is transferred to a six-rate twelve guard as a general, just like the Changsun Huan who was cleared out. Learned from Cheng Zhijie and transferred to Yuanren prefecture and county as a local military attache.
Obviously, the second way out is far better than the first.
When you arrive at a place, you can be a state captain, or a captain of the military mansion. It is also a giant, far better than being transferred to a veteran army of twelve guards with complicated tracks and intricacies. Helpless and lonely, a teenager who is underestimated and has a hard time getting ahead.
Qin Mubai had a meeting with Li Ke when he just returned to Chang'an not long ago. He accidentally heard him say that the emperor gave him hereditary "Jingzhou Governor" because of his Jiangzhou merits, and he could take office in the next year.
At that time, Li Ke will be transferred away, why not go with him to Jingzhou and become a governor? Even if you can't be a governor of Chengdu, you can be a Sima or a long history, if you don't want to be a state official or a captain of the army!
By then, will the two of them join hands in Jingzhou to cover the sky easily? It's better than nesting in Baiqi and the palace, facing countless pressures and troubles, never having a leisure time. Moreover, it is extremely difficult to be promoted as a hundred horse envoy, and no matter how well you do it, you can at most receive verbal praise from the emperor. If you do a little bit badly, then it is most likely an offense. Baiqishi, superficially beautiful, is actually a very low cost-effective errand. How can it be as comfortable as being a landlord?
Even Qin Shubao told Qin Mubai more than once that if you have the opportunity, you might as well leave the whirlpool of Baiqi. If there is a war, it is the best policy to go out to earn military merit. If there is no war, but go to the place to practice military affairs, as long as the luck is not so bad that there is no big trouble, then it is meritorious in governing the place and easy to promote.
Going to the local grassroots for further studies for a year or two and then returning to be promoted. Such a circuitous approach is actually adopted by many Beijing officials. It has been proven that it is indeed feasible.
Qin Mubai feels that now he has reached a bottleneck in his career. This time, my trip to Jiangzhou can be described as meritorious, but I only got a few acres and silver cloth as a reward, and gave him a symbolic valet cavalry officer who was seen everywhere in the army. It was simply worthless. If you don't ask for another way to find a breakthrough, then you have to wait for the emperor to kick out Baiqi, use your finger to send to which army to mess around, or even throw it at which border to defend Tucheng.
So, Qin Mubai didn't hesitate to push Xue Rengui to Li Ke first. When this step is completed, it is his own job-hopping. At that time, it would be best to bring a few Baiqi confidants. Li Ke is currently weak, and he must be grateful that Lai Ling attaches great importance to him at this time. Coupled with the old friendship and the bond of interest between the two, when Li Ke's camp reaches one person below 10,000, wouldn't it be within easy reach?
This is more than ten thousand times stronger than walking on thin ice in the palace!
At this point, Qin Mubai began to ponder the "job-hopping plan" in detail.
……
In the main hall of the Qin Mansion, the banquet is still going on.
In the backyard, Liu and Qin Shuang'er were chatting with Wu Meiniang's parents for a short time. Suddenly, they heard that the mansion was very lively and some people competed in the backyard, so they were all surprised. Seeing that there are many cars in the front yard, there must be important guests visiting. They are not easy to show up in the house, so they asked the servants of the Fuzhong.
This question doesn't matter. After asking, the three of them are a little stunned.
"What day is today, why are so many people here at once?" Liu said in surprise.
Qin Shuang'er blinked at Wu Meiniang and said, "Why even... Princess Gaoyang is here?"
Wu Meiniang smiled slightly to herself: "She is a princess. Which subject's home she wants to visit is her freedom!"
"Mei Niang..." Liu's face was embarrassed, and he stopped talking.
"What Madam wants to say, then just say it!" Wu Meiniang smiled calmly.
"Hey..." Liu sighed softly and said, "The affairs of Saburo and Princess Gaoyang are all known to everyone. You must be unhappy after hearing this. Saburo is not sensible, but I can only be My mother will pay you for him."
"Madam is serious." Wu Meiniang still smiled and said relaxedly, "Mu Bai has already explained this matter frankly and frankly with me in detail. I know everything about the two of them."
"Huh?" Liu's and Qin Shuang'er were stunned.
"Exactly." Wu Meiniang said, "I have deep feelings and complete trust with Mu Bai. I believe everything he says. Even if the emperor wants Princess Gaoyang to marry him, I will No comments."
"Huh?..." Liu's and Qin Shuang'er exclaimed again, their mouths opened wide, almost swallowing a fist.
"You don't have to be surprised." Wu Meiniang said with a smile, "It's not that I want to be high-sounding, this is indeed what I really think in my heart. It is normal for a man like Mu Bai to have other women like it. But if it is a farmer who occupies a few hectares more than others, and there is a little bit of chestnut in the family, but still thinking about the concubine room of Donna, how can I be naive and force Mu Bai to be only me? This matter? Since it can’t be changed, no matter how many women there are around him, it’s the same. Since the other party is still a princess, it would be better. In this way, it may be able to provide convenience and assistance to Mu Bai. Furthermore, Princess Gao Yang is very fond of Mu Bai. Bai is indeed deeply moved. Don’t worry, I don’t mind if there is another Princess Gao Yang beside Mu Bai."
"Really?..." Liu clan muttered, looking at Wu Meiniang in surprise, still a little disbelief.
Qin Shuang'er shook his head and sighed: "Sister Mei, you are really open-minded, and wise and smart. Does my third brother like you so much? It seems that it is not only because of your beautiful appearance, but also because of your wisdom and Mind. Oh, God, why is it so unfair. It not only gives you such a stunning appearance, but also gives you such ingenuity. Why am I not alike?"
"You kid, are you complaining about your parents for not giving birth to you?" Liu cried out with an angry smile, took Wu Meiniang's hand and patted gently, gratefully and happily said, "Mei Niang, Mu Bai can ask you, it’s really a blessing in his previous life. In fact, Mu Bai’s virtues are similar to those of his father, which are different from ordinary men. They also have a lot of affection, but they are not indiscriminate. As long as it is a woman around, it is certain I will be extremely respected and cherished. I am only the concubine of the Qin family, but Grandpa Yi has always respected me and never treated me as a dispensable concubine. For so many years, we have cherished each other, Abandoning this kind of thing as expected, it absolutely has no destiny with me."
"I know that. Mu Bai is a good man upright and upright. In fact, he was driven by a kindness to Princess Gaoyang, which made him accept her?" Wu Meiniang said, "Princess Gaoyang, actually She is also a very poor woman. If I am Mu Bai, I will definitely be touched by her and accept her without complaint. Although I am preconceived, how can I bear to dismantle them and let Mu Bai’s side be lacking? What about such a good woman who is desperate for him?"
"Good point!" Liu nodded and said, "We are women and we can't do anything earth-shattering. Everything is for the good of our men. That's right. But you can rest assured, I will always admonish admiration. Bai. Let him constrain his thoughts, don't mess around with flowers and grass outside. If he dares to bully or betray you, I will not forgive him first!"
"Thank you Madam!" Wu Meiniang smiled, "Mu Bai has treated me very well, and he has always been a man with a righteous conscience, I believe him!"
"Hey!..." Qin Shuang'er shook his head and sighed, "What luck is my brother? How could I meet such a reasonable and reasonable woman like you!"
"Meeting him is also my blessing." Wu Meiniang smiled slightly.
……
On the main hall, the banquet is about to end.
Cheng Zhijie, who was greedy for a good drink, was the first to get drunk. Shouting and laughing in the hall, making a lot of fun. Li Ke and Qin Mubai also drank a little more, but Xue Rengui, who was too strong to drink, wanted to slip a long time ago, but because of affection, he kept sitting.
Only Princess Gao Yang hasn’t drank much, her eyes kept staring at Qin Mubai brightly, and from time to time she threw a few meaningful glances at him, making Qin Mubai wonder what she wanted. Say what.
When the banquet was removed, Cheng Zhijie and his son were left in the Qin Mansion and arranged to stay in the guest room. If Xue Rengui received an amnesty, please leave, Qin Mubai personally sent him to the gate of the mansion.
"The general, please stay and send it away without any effort." Xue Rengui said with a hand.
"Brother Xue, go slowly." Qin Mubai smiled back and said nothing.
Xue Rengui turned around and walked a few steps, his steps seemed to be a bit staggered, and he probably drank a bit more. But after walking a few steps, he stopped again, turned around and walked towards Qin Mubai, seeming to have made a certain decision. Please forgive me!"
"Brother Xue, what are you talking about? I just hope that the two of us can become good friends." Qin Mubai said.
"Brother Qin was born in a noble family, but he didn't dislike the inter-generational **** of ordinary people, which made him feel embarrassed." Xue Rengui said, "In fact, I have been refusing to join Brother Qin's Baiqi, not because he has a heart for him Mustard."
"Oh, what's that?" Qin Mubai asked.
"That's because...in the next life's wish is to serve the country on the battlefield, not to serve as the emperor's side guard." Xue Rengui arched his hands, "The general, please forgive me for being rude. In the next... there really is nothing to Baiqi. Interest!"
"Everyone has his own ambitions, so I can't force it." Qin Mubai laughed, "Actually, I am also a temporary stopgap measure in Baiqi, and I am not very enthusiastic about this position. My original idea was not good enough. I want to borrow the power of cheapness in my hand to open a door to your career. I don’t want to force you to stay in Baiqi."
Xue Rengui's eyes flashed: "In this way, the general only regards Baiqi as a transitional place?"
"Almost!" Qin Mubai chuckled, "I was born as a guardian, and I was nurtured by my father since I was a child. How can I be willing to be quiet in the royal harem? Errand guard?"
"It turns out that the general is also in the world!" Xue Rengui's expression became much more relaxed and relieved, and he smiled.
"Men’s ambitions are all directions. Brother Xue and I thought about it, in fact, it’s the same." Qin Mubai said, "The reason why I ran for the Hundred Cavalry Envoy was only to open this door for myself. Now this door is open, I It’s also time to leave. It may not be long before I will be transferred. Therefore, I will no longer recommend Brother Xue to join Baiqi, because I have to leave by myself, haha!"
"Really? Does the general think of a way out?" Xue Rengui asked.
Qin Mubai smiled and said: "Not yet. But don't worry, if I have the opportunity to lead troops out, I will definitely call you!"
"If this is the case, Xue Mou is grateful!" Xue Ren held a valuable fist.
"Brother Xue is polite!" Qin Mubai replied and sighed with rejoicing in his heart: It turned out that it was for this reason. Xue Rengui didn't want to be a guard, but just wanted to fight! Yes, this is indeed in line with his character. He was too humble and honest, and he was a bit honest. Yunbo's curious palace is indeed not suitable for him. It seems that his position in his life is really quite clear-galloping on the battlefield happily killing the enemy, and making contributions with his own ability!
Xue Rengui said goodbye and left. Qin Mubai slowly walked back to ponder the matter, couldn't help smiling, and thought to himself: Xue Rengui wanted to be a general and didn't want to be a guard, so he was just in time for him to enter the Prince Wu's Mansion to be a military officer with troops. Although he is on the battlefield, he must first be familiar with Datang's army organization system. Otherwise, even if there is a war, he will not be able to adapt to the army when he enters the army. I believe Xue Rengui will agree with this proposal.
Speaking of which, the matter of getting Xue Rengui to the Prince Wu's mansion is half done!
"Hey, why are you giggling alone!" Just thinking about it, suddenly a coquettish scolding came from around. Had it not been for Qin Mubai's extremely strong psychological quality, he would really be shocked.
Who else can? Of course it was the reckless Princess Goyang.
"You fellow, do you want to murder your husband?" Seeing no one around, Qin Mubai scolded.
"Hey! This can scare you to death. You are not so fragile, and you said you want to protect me!" Princess Goyang blushed because of a drink of alcohol. Grinning with little tiger teeth, in the two dimples, there is a little woman's unique happy smile.
