After the ceremony, Li Jing happily invited the Qin family and his son into the main hall, sitting separately for the guest and the host, and waiting for tea.

Li Jing took out the spiritual life stick bestowed by the emperor and tried it. He was very satisfied. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty the emperor is really sympathetic to his servants. This crutch fits my body shape. He has a lot of time and free time to take care of it. Waiting for small things is really admirable!"

Qin Shubao said: "Big Brother, the grace that His Majesty the Emperor has given you is indeed extraordinary. He also commends you as a brother in the public, which makes us veterans feel jealous!"

"Haha, Shubao said and laughed." Li Jing sat down with a big smile and invited them father and son to drink tea.

Qin Mubai has been sitting quietly while listening to Li Jing chatting with his father, carefully observing Li Jing. In general, Li Jing gave Qin Mubai a calm and approachable feeling. The more truly a big man, the less pretentious he is, the less pretentious he is. If you walk in the market, others don't know that he is Wei Gong Li Jing. He, the invincible Datang Army God, looks like an amiable old man at home.

Li Jing's home is also very simple. Most of Tang's high-ranking officials and eunuchs advocate frugality. The Wei Gong Mansion is as simple as the Qin Mansion, but it is very clean and tidy. Just like Li Jing's personality, low-key, simple, and meticulous.

After chatting for a few words, Qin Shubao bluntly said: "Big Brother, I haven't seen you for a few years, but Brother Fool has nothing to do with the Three Treasures Hall. Come here today, I beg you for something."

"How can Shubao ask for a word? You can speak up if you have something." Li Jing said with a smile.

Qin Shubao pointed to Qin Mubai and said, "Houzi followed in my footsteps and joined the martial arts. Although I learned some fist and embroidered legs, I don't know anything about the art of war. You know the big brother, Qin Qiong. A man only knows how to dance with spears and sticks. If you say that you can teach the dog art of war, you may have more than one heart but not enough energy. Therefore, the foolish brother thought of bringing the dog to the big brother. Please call one or two."

"This..." Li Jing twisted his brows slightly, his skinny purple hand stroked his bright white beard, and he muttered for a long while, and said, "Uncle Bao, you and I have been together for many years, you know my temperament Of."

"Of course." Qin Shubao chuckled, "So the foolish brother will never dare to make others difficult. Anyway, the foolish brother just opened his mouth with this old face, and the big brother does not have to be embarrassed. . Brother Fool relies solely on his brother’s advice, without saying much."

"Uncle Bao, I also know how you are, and you never ask for help. You have opened your mouth today. I wouldn't be able to refuse it, but...I really have something to say." Li Jing said with a grimace.

"Could you please tell me, let Yu brother be the elder brother for more details? You and I have been brothers for so many years, one fool will never force you, and second, if there are difficulties, Yu brother will be the elder brother. "Qin Shubao said.

"Uncle Bao is still so loyal." Li Jing glanced at Qin Mubai, smiled a little, and said, "Anyway, Mubai is not an outsider, so I will tell you. In fact, to Congbei After I settled on the Turks, I always stayed behind closed doors, not to mention accepting disciples to teach the art of war. Before that, I had two disciples, one from Su Dingfang and the other from Hou Junji. Both of them are now independent and almost Cut off contact with me. Shubao, do you know why this is?"

"What? Su Dingfang and Hou Junji have cut off contact with you?" Uncle Qin raised his sword brows and showed a trace of anger, "How dare they not respect the teacher so much?"

"Neither, nor, they are not to blame." Li Jing twisted his eyebrows slightly and said, "I asked them to do this. Also, Li Ji, who had been with me before my year-long acquaintance, also had a conflict with me. , Do not interact with each other."

"This..." Qin Shubao stunned for a moment, and finally nodded, "I understand."

Qin Mubai thought in his heart, and seemed to have thought about something clearly: Li Jinggong was the one and only military **** in the army that no one could replace, and it was almost a symbol of the Tang army. The prestige that such a character possesses in the army is naturally unmatched. Now, his apprentices Su Dingfang and Hou Junji have become great generals in charge of military power and governance. If you still openly communicate with Li Jing and hug him tightly together, what would the emperor think? At that time, I am afraid that as long as he Li Jing is willing, with a light wave of his hand, thousands of people will gather, and perhaps he will be able to overthrow Li Shimin's dynasty!

Therefore, Li Jing made the move and cut off contact with Su Dingfang, Hou Junji and others, and got into trouble with Li Ji. In this way, the generals in the army are at odds with each other, and it is possible for the emperor to adjust and control them. If all the generals in charge of soldiers are firmly hugged into a ball... then I am afraid that the throne of Li Shimin will be on pins and needles. In this way, it is not only the crisis of Li Shimin, but also the crisis of Li Jing, Li Ji, Su Dingfang and others, and even the crisis of the entire Datang!

Li Jing is indeed a man who can affect the whole body and dominate the fate of the present-day Tang Dynasty!

……

"So, do I dare to accept disciples?" Li Jing laughed, showing a bit of bitterness and helplessness, he said, "Uncle Bao, it's not that I am unkind, and it is not that I look down on Mu Bai. In fact, it is. ...The situation forced me to do so."

"Big brother Zhizhi Zhongchun, everything he did was for the Tang Sheji and His Majesty the emperor, my foolish brother has nothing to say." Qin Shubao sighed regretfully, "So, I can only sigh Saburo. I don’t have that blessing to come to your door!"

At this time, Qin Mubai smiled slightly, and said, "Duke Wei, my father, it's okay. I want to learn the art of war in the next stage, but it's just to serve the Tang Dynasty and share the worries for the emperor. If the guild brings a lot of troubles and troubles, it runs counter to my wishes. Therefore, I don’t want to go to Master Wei."

"Oh?" Li Jing said lightly, and a pair of old eyes flashed across Qin Mubai's face quickly, and said in his heart: This kid is clever, he seems to have figured out the meaning of what I just said. ... He took advantage of the opportunity to come to give away the gift bestowed by the emperor and talked about apprenticeship, and invited his father to lobby with him, as if he was determined to get it, and he was confident.

Li Jing thought: The children of the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, who want to worship me as a teacher, don’t know where they are, but everyone knows that Li Jinggong is highly quake and thanking guests behind closed doors, lest they have a close relationship with me. Get into trouble by being jealous. Only if Qin Mubai came to visit his teacher so grandiosely, could he be an idiot? Obviously not! He is a close minister of the emperor, how can I not know where I Li Jing is now. Now that he has come and spoke... Does that mean that he has received the emperor's tacit approval?

Thinking of this level, Li Jing couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and then a smile appeared on his face, saying: "It's rare that you father and son are so sympathetic to me, I am very grateful. By the way, Uncle Bao, I'm just chatting about everyday life today. I want to ask you to verify something."

"Big Brother might as well talk and listen." Qin Shubao said.

"Hehe, I'm also old, and I have nothing to do. I am quite curious when I hear some rumors." Li Jing laughed, "I heard earlier that the emperor took his order and cancelled the rumors of marrying Princess Gaoyang to Fang Yiai. , Can this matter?"

Qin Shubao's heart was bright, and then he laughed and said: "This matter, you should ask the dog!"

Qin Mubai smiled bitterly with embarrassment on his face, and said: "Yes, it's happening."

"Haha!" Li Jing laughed, "I also heard that it was you, Qin Mubai, who invited Princess Gao Yang out of the palace and sent it to the Prince Wu's residence. Is that possible?"

Qin Mubai continued to smile wryly: "Yes, that's it."

"Haha!" Li Jing caressed her with a long smile, "So, is it true that the emperor intends to marry Princess Gaoyang to you?"

"Haha! I didn't expect Big Brother to live in the house all day long, and he is still so well informed about the outside world." Qin Shubao laughed, "I haven't even asked the dog about this matter, so I might as well ask with Big Brother today. Clear."

At this time, Qin Mubai's heart was thinking: For no reason, why did Li Jing suddenly ask about this "gossip"? What is this old man thinking? Does he want to ask if I will become the emperor's "son-in-law", find out if I have come to apprentice under the order and recommendation of Emperor Jun, and then decide whether to accept me as a disciple?

People like Li Jing are as wise as the sea and cautious, no matter what he is thinking now... I'll take a gamble! Anyway, the matter between Princess Gaoyang and I is an open secret, and there is nothing to be ashamed of speaking out!

"The words of Mr. Hui Wei and my father, regarding the gift of marriage..." Qin Mubai said with embarrassment, and said hesitantly, "I really don't dare to conceal it, the Concubine Yin had mentioned it to me orally. Everything, It is limited to this."

"Hehe! Concubine Yin is the biological mother of Princess Gaoyang. Since she has spoken, it means that the emperor has instructed her, otherwise, how could she make her own decision? In this case, the old man would like to congratulate you father and son, It will be a matter of time for the Qin family to marry the princess!" Li Jing said with a laugh.

"If this is the case, it will be the emperor's grace, and my Qin family is very grateful. If it is just a rumor or a joke, it can only be laughed at!" Qin Shubao also laughed.

Li Jing's slight, slightly squinted eyes looked at Qin Mubai's eyes carefully, and then said leisurely: "Mu Bai, it's not that I don't want to accept you as a disciple, but in fact...my Wei Gongfu, now On the surface, it looks peaceful like water, but it is a troubled place. It's rare that you are so diligent and studious, and the old man can't bear to refuse you and cut your way to school. Well, the old man has a strategy of war written by himself in the past two years. It’s only half done. If you don’t dislike it, please take it back and copy a copy and study it carefully. If you don’t understand anything, you can come to my house and ask me."

Qin Mubai was overjoyed when he heard this. He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, got up from the couch and was about to bow down to Li Jing.

"Wait!" Li Jing yelled and stopped him, "Don't do me a teacher apprenticeship!"

"This...why?" Qin Mubai asked blankly.

Qin Shubao also got up, walked over to Qin Mubai with a long smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "My stupid son, just listen to your uncle Li!"

"So...the younger generation will thank Wei Gong for the book's grace!" Qin Mubai still bowed down.

"Hehe, okay, get up!" Li Jing smiled and nodded, "It's just a broken book, you don't need to give such a big gift. Come, you father and son come with me to the study, and I will take the book from you. "

"Xie Weigong!"

The father and son followed Li Jing to the study room, but seeing the sweaty cows in this small room full of books, they were neatly packed and spotless.

Li Jing walked to a bookshelf and asked Qin Mubai to take a thick book loaded in an ancient blue book box from the top, put it on the table and spread it out, and took out a half-foot thick book from inside. book.

In the title of the book, there are three handwritten characters of "Jade Account"!

"This is a military book written by the old man in the past two years. It includes condemning generals, marching, camping and reprimanding, hydrology, formation of troops, and many prescriptions for the treatment of epidemics in the army." Li Jing said, "For those who have been marching and fighting all year round, these are all things that are clear to the chest. But for you who have not been in battle, they are very useful. This book has completed the upper part of the book, and it is temporarily over. You You might as well take away one copy and send it back to me so that I can finish the next part."

"Thank you Wei Gong!" Qin Mubai bowed his hands and bowed, then took off the unicorn cloak and carefully wrapped the treasure of the military master.

There was a poem in the Song Dynasty—"Nine soil Wolong can't call it, but the stinky talk is full of soldiers. The scholars did not know the Jade Account Sutra, and hold this picture to the end."

"Jade Account Scripture" is a masterpiece of Li Jing's many art of war books. In later generations, there is the Song generation, and it has almost become synonymous with art of war!

Although Qin Mubai still didn't quite understand why Li Jing only gave military books and not recruits, it would be great to have this military book!

A work of hard work that has condensed the lifelong experience of the warrior warrior of the ancient strategist of the Tang Dynasty.

"Uncle Bao, Mu Bai, you father and son, don't think the old man is stingy." Li Jing said, "This old man's military book, you must not spread it to anyone. Otherwise, the emperor's side..."

"Duke Wei rest assured, the younger generation must abide by the teachings of the public and will not let anyone else see this book." Qin Mubai solemnly clasped his fist. "Okay. A man's promise is worth a thousand dollars. The old man believes in you." Li Jing nodded with a smile.

"Two days later, the junior will return this original book!" Qin Mubai solemnly promised.

"Okay! This time the day after tomorrow, the old man will be here waiting for you!"

Shortly afterwards, the father and son said goodbye to Li Jing and left for home. There was nothing to say all the way, and the father and son returned to the Qin Mansion hurriedly with their own concerns.

After getting off the horse, the two went directly into Qin Shubao's room and opened the heavy military book.

"Yes, it is indeed Li Jing's handwriting. Every word is written by him." Qin Shubao flipped through the notes and recognized the notes, then closed the book, and said solemnly, "Sanlang, Li Jing So generous, he gave you all his life's hard work, you must cherish the opportunity and keep your promise!"

"Father rest assured, the child knows what to do." Qin Mubai also replied sternly.

"Well, okay..." Qin Shubao just sat down and sighed in relief, "Li Jing just refused, and I thought that there is no hope for this matter. Li Jing is like this, and everything is very principled. In major events, he has never gone beyond Lei Chi and he is extremely cautious. He suddenly changed his mind to give you a military letter, which was a little unexpected for me. Mu Bai, have you ever wondered why Li Jing suddenly Changed your mind?"

Qin Mubai twisted his eyebrows in thought, and shook his head: "My child is not clear."

Qin Shubao chuckled: "You don’t think about it clearly, but it’s reasonable. Because you don’t know much about things between our generation and the emperor. In fact, Li Jing’s life is only active. I received Su Dingfang, an apprentice, and taught him the strategy of warfare. Later, Hou Junji became Li Jing's protégé under the emperor’s strong recommendation. Just now, Li Jing asked about Princess Gaoyang. He probably thought it through. The emperor recommended you. Go. Although the emperor did not give Li Jing a strong order this time, who can save the emperor’s face? So Li Jing had to carefully consider whether to accept you as a disciple."

"Then why didn't he accept me directly as a disciple, but only gave me the art of war?" Qin Mubai asked.

"There is even more knowledge in this." Qin Shubao said, "Since the emperor didn't tell him to accept it, how could he dare to do so and accept it? Li Jing's art of war is not just his books, but also It is the treasure of the Tang Dynasty and the treasure of the military. Soldiers, the weapon of the country! If Li Jing casually accepts disciples and passes the strategy of war to some Xiao Xiaos, he will use it to harm Sheji in the future, wouldn't it be the disaster of the Tang Dynasty Therefore, Li Jing has always been extremely cautious in accepting apprentices. Even if the prince and the relatives ask him to apprentice, he will strictly refuse."

"But this time, the emperor asked you to find Li Jing as a teacher. The emperor's intentions are also profound." Qin Shubao went on to say, "Let’s see if Li Jing, as the outside rumors say, accept his disciples. Extremely cautious; secondly, it also tested whether Li Jing was only the emperor's order. Thirdly, the deeper intention...Perhaps the emperor also wanted to see the art of war written by Li Jing in the past two years!"

"What?!" Qin Mubai was taken aback, "The emperor asked me to give Li Jing such a longevity stick. Is there such a deep intention?"

"So, I advised you to underestimate the emperor a long time ago. He never does anything meaningless." Qin Shubao said, "If you think about it, Li Jing can lay down half of the world for the Li family, he What does the art of war mean? It’s like raising a super martial arts master in your mansion with a knife that blows and breaks hair. As the master of the family, even if you trust this master, you don’t want to see him. What does this knife look like?"

"Father is wise, that's a good point...So this martial arts master uses poison rather than a knife, so it is more necessary to look at it, and at least, he must have an antidote." Qin Mubai nodded suddenly and enlightened. , "The boy, now, should I first send this book of war to His Majesty the Emperor for review."

"Smart. Just when we were leaving, didn't Li Jing still vaguely mentioned "otherwise the emperor's side"? This old fox is implying that you should send the book of war to the emperor first, please Shangyu Read it." Qin Shubao waved his hand, "It's not a good time to stop overnight, you go right away!"

"Yes!"

Looking at Qin Mubai carrying a thick military book Pegasus out of the house, Qin Shubao stroked the long beard and laughed, and said to himself: "How about it, **** is still hot? Learn more!"

At dusk, the palace gate is about to close. Qin Mubai entered directly from the Xuanwu Gate of the North Gate and came to the Penglai Hall of the Harem, and he found Li Shimin. He had dinner with Li Zhi and Li Mingda as usual.

After dealing with the two little guys, the monarch and the minister entered the study. Qin Mubai unloaded the book of war and placed it on Li Shimin’s desk, saying: "Your Majesty, the minister is going to find Wei Gong to apprentice. But Duke Wei refused to accept the ministers as disciples, and only passed this half of the military book. The ministers did not dare to specialize themselves, so please bring the military book, please make your decision!"

Li Shimin chuckled, he reached out his hand to caress the "Jade Account Scripture" which was still in the fragrant ink, but did not open his hand and said: "Since Wei Gong passed it to you, then you can study it!"

Qin Mubai was deliberately startled: "Your Majesty...Don't you just open it and read this book?"

"No need." Li Shimin smiled, "You don't actually need to report back to me for such trivial matters. This is a matter between you and Li Jing. It doesn't involve me. Why should you take it so seriously?"

"Weichen just thinks..." Qin Mubai hesitated, and said, "If it is a military book given by your majesty, weichen will read it with peace of mind. If you conceal your majesty's arbitrage, the Weichen will deceive A sense of prince."

"Haha, the words are serious." Li Shimin smiled relaxedly, "Since you want to say that, then okay, this military book should be given to you by me."

"Thank your majesty!"

"Take it away, this is the treasure of the military." Li Shimin looked at Qin Mubai with a meaningful smile, "You take it back and read it carefully. If you have free time, I might still ask you for advice." /
