The carriages and horses headed all the way to the Jiangxia Palace, walking slowly and leisurely. Qin Mubai and Princess Gaoyang were sitting in the car, smiling quietly, and the coachman and maidservant sitting on the front wheel couldn't help laughing.
"Be honest, don't touch it!"
"Hey, Mu Bai, your body is really strong! Is it polished out of martial arts every day?"
"Don't ask for words, excuse me!"
"Wow! What is this hard thing? Play with me for a while!"
The coachman and the maidservant couldn't help but laugh out loud, they heard Qin Mubai roar in the compartment——
"...My Hundred Horse Envoy token! Give it back to me soon!"
The two were having a good time when they suddenly heard someone shouting in front of them: "Stop the carriage!"
Qin Mubai took a look at the window of his car. There was still some distance from the gate of King Jiang Xia's palace. Why did he stop? Moreover, Li Ke got out of the car, was walking towards this side, walked straight to the two people's car, stepped onto the shaft and walked into the car.
"Your Highness, why aren't you leaving?" Qin Mubai asked.
Li Ke unscrewed his brows, looked at Princess Gao Yang with a weird look, and said: "It's weird. The father's Luangjia was actually placed in front of the emperor's house, and the brigade's guards of the Royal Forest."
"That's not going!" Princess Gao Yang's face sank, and she said without hesitation, "I don't want to see him!"
Qin Mubai and Li Ke glanced at each other, each showing awkward expressions. Li Ke walked under the car, and at the end he threw a sentence: "I will leave it to you."
Princess Gao Yang turned her head like a conditioned reflex, and stared at Qin Mubai with anger: "Don't try to persuade me. If you don't say anything, you won't go!"
"I haven't spoken yet, do you know what I want to say?" Qin Mubai smiled.
"Huh!...You and the third brother always join forces to bully me!" Princess Gao Yang pursed her mouth, muttering in a muttering voice, "King Jiang Xia is also bad! Knowing that I am at odds with him, please After we had a meal, I called him. It’s really disappointing! Don’t go anymore. Didn’t you agree to take me to hunt yesterday? Let’s go to Zhongnan Mountain now!"
"Ling'er, don't you want to marry me?" Qin Mubai said suddenly.
"Of course not!" Princess Gao Yang hurriedly exclaimed, "Why do you suddenly say such kind of talk?"
"Then you and the emperor have been so stiff, how can you marry me?" Qin Mubai said, "The daughter of the common people, and the marriage is still important and the parents are the masters. As a princess of the Tang Dynasty, your marriage can be tricky. Obviously, King Jiang Xia did not randomly invite us to have a family dinner yesterday, maybe it was arranged deliberately by the emperor. Since your majesty arranged like this, he meant to take the initiative to reconcile with you. He is an elder, an emperor. Ah, I took the initiative to reconcile with you. How can you be so ignorant and not appreciate him?"
Princess Gao Yang still bulged her mouth, lowered her head aggrievedly, but did not speak.
Qin Mubai took her into her arms and gently stroked her back, and said softly, "Okay, don't worry about the previous things. At that time, His Majesty was too hard to get off the tiger, forced to help. In fact, he also has difficulties. After all, your father still loves you. Otherwise, according to his temperament...Aren't you and I already shattered?"
"According to what you said, I also want to thank his old man for being merciful and not killing us?" Princess Gao Yang said sourly.
"You, I just like horns." Qin Mubai smiled, kissed her face softly, and said softly, "Hey, go and reconcile with the emperor, okay? I bet the emperor's heart I still love you and love you. Even if you don’t believe him, you should always believe me? Well, even if you really don’t want to care about him, just treat it for me and wrong yourself once?"
"For you, what do you say?" Princess Gao Yang flushed her face, smiled, holding Qin Mubai's face and kissed back, and naughty bit his ear and asked.
"Isn’t I asking the emperor to allow me to transfer outside?" Qin Mubai said, "I can’t tell you the interests of this moment. In short, if I continue to stay in the capital, I’m afraid I’ll be in serious trouble; if I can A smooth transfer will have every benefit. But if you don’t reconcile with His Majesty the Emperor, he will not treat me as a messenger, maybe he won’t allow it. Understand?"
"Well, I am willing to do anything for you!" Princess Gao Yang grinned and showed a pair of naughty little tiger teeth, "Although I really hate him... but this time, Feel wronged once!"
After all, Princess Gao Yang walked to the door of the carriage and told the maidservant: "Go and pass a message to King Wu and say I agree."
Soon, the carriage continued to move forward, and finally stopped in front of King Jiang Xia's palace.
The three got out of the car and entered the house together. There have long been officials here to welcome them and lead them in together.
The mansion of King Jiang Xia in Chang'an is much more magnificent and beautiful than that of Jinzhou. I heard that this was after the emperor ascended the throne. In order to demonstrate the merits of Li Daozong, the hero of the royal family, he personally sent people to supervise the country. Made. Its scale and momentum are not inferior to the imperial palace hall.
The emperor really is here. All the way in, there are imperial forest guards and guards, of course, most of them are hundred cavalry soldiers familiar to Qin Mubai. The three of them walked in together. When they arrived at the main hall, they saw Li Shimin sitting in the main seat and Li Daozong sitting in the second seat. Both of them were looking up here.
"Your Majesty, they are here." Li Daozong said softly.
"I saw it." Li Shimin raised his head slightly and squinted, with a look of expectation and hope on his face, muttering, "My Linger, my complexion is good!"
"That is." Li Daozong chuckled lightly, "It's still the same mischief as before."
"That's good, that's good!" Li Shimin smiled and nodded, showing his loving kindness.
Qin Mubai and Li Ke entered the main hall, without squinting, they first bowed to the emperor.
Only Princess Gaoyang, with her pair of phoenix eyes looking around, she didn’t look straight at Li Shimin. After watching Qin and Li bow down, she bowed down very reluctantly, humming in a weird tone. Said: "The emperor pays respects to the emperor! May the emperor dominate your business forever!"
Wang Jiang Xia laughed: "Gao Yang, who taught you this weird accent?"
"I haven't read a book before, do you need someone to teach you these things?" Princess Gao Yang didn't wait for the imperial order to give her lower body, she stood up first, walked to King Jiang Xia and sat next to him. After he got down, he scratched his armpit and said with a grin, "Uncle and prince, what delicious treats did you prepare for us today?"
Li Shimin might have seen Princess Goyang distracted a bit, but did not say a word, so Li Ke and Qin Mubai still worshipped on the ground. Seeing such frivolous and grotesque behavior of Princess Gao Yang, the two grinned and smiled bitterly, and a black line was drawn on their foreheads.
"Cough!" Li Shimin gave a light cough. Princess Gao Yang pretended to be frightened, and hurriedly ran back to her knees, and said, "The emperor's death, forgot that the emperor is here! Father, you Don't get angry, if you cut off the head of the emperor, you won't be able to grow a head again."
Everyone twisted their hearts, Li Shimin's face also trembled slightly, but he quickly took away the unpleasant expression, smiled and said: "Don't give me a gift! Today's family dinner party, no need Many gifts."
"Thank you Majesty." Li Ke and Qin Mubai stood up, Princess Gao Yang still kneeled in a daze. Li Ke was a little annoyed. He stepped forward to lift her up, and whispered: "It's amazing to make you up, it's obviously shameless! Hugh is so rude to my father!"
"Ke'er, what are you doing!" Li Shimin suddenly became anxious, and sternly scolded: "Let her go!"
The rebuke of Li Shimin's prestige made the scene suddenly silent. Princess Gao Yang was also a little stunned for a while, staring at Li Shimin blankly, without blinking her eyes.
Li Ke hurriedly flashed aside and said, "My son is impolite, please forgive me!"
Li Shimin sighed softly, got up and walked to the side of Princess Gao Yang who was still kneeling, bent down, patted her shoulders with both hands, and said, "Ling'er, get up!"
Qin Mubai and others have never heard a voice like Li Shimin. Just now, the reign was infinitely berating Li Ke. In a flash, his voice revealed a lot of love and concern, as well as a trace of fatigue, sadness and loss.
A short sentence of six words reveals Li Shimin's complicated mood at the moment.
Princess Gaoyang trembled slightly, raised her head, looked at Li Shimin a little foolishly, opened her mouth, seeming to want to speak, but couldn't utter a word.
Li Shimin simply squatted down and faced Princess Gao Yang, looking at her kindly and caringly, and asked softly: "Ling'er, what do you want to say to my father? Except for calling me a demon... …You haven’t spoken to me for months."
"I, I..." Princess Gao Yang's face turned pale, and her lips trembled a little. Zhan Liang's eyes stared at Li Shimin blankly, and there seemed to be a misty rain in them.
"Forget it, don't want to talk about it. You stand up." After that, Li Shimin stretched out his arms to pick her up.
"Father!" Princess Gao Yang suddenly called out loudly, and threw herself into Li Shimin's arms, crying bitterly!
"Good, good Linger! Don't cry, don't cry!" Li Shimin also held Princess Gao Yang tightly into his arms.
Li Daozong waved his hand, and all the guards outside the hall withdrew to a hundred steps away.
"Uuuuu-father, emperor father!" Princess Gao Yang held Li Shimin's robe tightly behind her with a pair of small hands, crying hysterically.
Li Shimin's eyes also felt a bit tingling, and they were a little red. Due to the large number of people present, he took a deep breath to suppress the urge to cry, but he smiled: "Ling'er, don't be naughty. Would you stop crying? Look, your uncle Jiangxia Wang is laughing at you crying!" /
"He is a bad old man, ignore him!...Woo!" Princess Gao Yang still cried loudly.
"Haha!" Li Daozong, Qin Mubai and others laughed loudly.
Li Shimin's amusement, Qin Mubai's and others' smiles just right alleviated the sadness and embarrassment on the scene, and suddenly became much more casual.
Princess Gao Yang burst into laughter with tears, got out of Li Shimin's arms embarrassingly, and hurriedly wiped her tears with her face.
"Okay, go down and dress up. Look at you, the powder is all over his face, haha!" Li Shimin smiled and lifted Princess Gao Yang from the ground, and let out a long sigh.
Princess Goyang gave an embarrassing "hehe" a weird smile, and slipped away, covering her face. He deliberately rushed past Qin Mubai, and when the emperor turned around without paying attention, he deliberately pressed Qin Mubai with his elbow, and his little hand showed a slit, and he blinked at her.
Qin Mubai grinned wildly, admiring Princess Gao Yang for her superb acting skills.
Li Shimin just got back to the right position, and laughed a little self-deprecatingly: "I made you laugh."
"Today's family banquet, your majesty has a deep affection and Linger's true feelings are revealed, but I really admire it!" Li Daozong laughed.
"That's it, don't mention it." Li Shimin waved his hand and smiled with a rather helpless taste, and said, "This Linger has been naughty and mischievous since she was a child. It's also to blame me for spoiling her--well , Ke'er, Mu Bai, you don't have to be formal, just sit down!"
"Thanks your majesty for giving a seat!" The two sat down one by one.
"It is rare for King Jiang Xia to return to the capital once. Today, I made a special visit, and I also intend to gather with you." Li Shimin said with a smile, "Ke'er, Mu Bai, don't blame King Jiang Xia, I specially asked him, Let him not tell you in advance that I am coming."
"Haha!" Li Daozong smiled, "Your Majesty is serious. It's just an ordinary family dinner!"
"Yes, that's right." Li Shimin also smiled, "I haven't been with the royal family for some time. By the way, Mu Bai, you go out and send an order to the soldiers of the hundred horses and let them send someone. Go to the harem and pick up Zhinu and Sizi together. I just left from the Wude Hall, and he forgot them for a while."
"Weichen will go there in person." Qin Mubai got up and said. I thought, Li Shimin was deliberately trying to distract me, so they can talk about things!
"Alright, I will trouble you to take a trip." Li Shimin smiled, "They two, but they miss you so much!"
"Weichen will leave here." Qin Mubai bowed to the emperor and the others, and took a few Baiqi guards to the palace.
Shortly after Qin Mubai left, Li Shimin said to Li Ke: "Keer, I read the memorial you handed over. I want to ask you, have you followed Qin Mubai's opinion?"
"Qin Mubai himself has agreed to answer his father's words." Li Ke replied.
"Um...Qin Mubai is the commander-in-chief of the guards who I planted with one hand. It was inconvenient to sell. But since you spoke and he agreed again, I had no choice but to cut love." Li Shimin clicked. He nodded and said, "However, a mere four-ranked Captain Zhechong is too wronged by my hundred horse envoy. I plan to appoint him as the Governor of Jingzhou. What do you two like?"
Li Daozong didn't know this beforehand, so he frowned in confusion and said, "Your Majesty, are you planning to release Qin Mubai out of office?"
"You heard that just now, it was Ke'er looking for someone to dig the corner!" Li Shimin smiled helplessly.
"This... Your Majesty's Chrysostom has already opened, and the minister has nothing to say." Li Daozong arched his hands and said, "but the minister thought that although the post of governor is noble, it is not as good as a captain. ."
"Oh, what do you say?" Li Shimin asked.
Li Daozong replied: "His Majesty also said that Qin Mubai was cultivated by his Majesty himself, and he must be appointed as a young general in the future. Since he is a foreign official, he must be hardened and tempered. Jingzhou To put it bluntly, the post of the governor is just a light-headed commander with power and no soldiers, that is, to deal with the generals and officials in those places, and tell them to do things. As for the military training, use formations and transfer troops. The general condemned to wait for his true talents to learn, but he couldn't learn it for half a minute. Qin Mubai was still young and had no experience in the battlefield. Instead of appointing him to be an official and a leisurely governor with few major issues, it was better to let him go to Zhechong Mansion and actually bring soldiers. Only by training can you know everything in the army, which is more conducive to his growth."
"Okay, hit the nail on the head!" Li Shimin raised his finger and nodded in praise, "You are still a military veteran who knows how to cultivate and educate people. Qin Mubai was born and has a good aptitude, and I have long planned to train him into I am the successor of the younger generation of generals in Datang. Hearing what you say, I am stunned. I will entrust him with a captain, advise him in the spring, advise on farming in the spring, be on guard in the summer, collect grain and grass in the fall, and train and train in winter , Let him go to Xiangzhou to practice hard for three to five years."
"Jade is not a tool, your Majesty Shengming!" Li Daozong said, "Qin Mubai's generation was born in the peaceful and prosperous age, but also grew up in the **** of the official family. From the bitterness of snacks, the experience is less, more Without a **** battle, if there is no field training, it will be difficult to become a great weapon. The minister also thinks that Qin Mu and Bai Zhiyong are both qualified and capable. The only thing missing now is practice and training!"
"Then it's settled!" Li Shimin stroked his palm. "After I returned to the palace, I drafted an decree from the Zhongshu Provincial Government to appoint Qin Mu and the Baixiang prefecture as a captain, and join Li Ke in the next year. Take office!"
"No!!!" Suddenly there was a scolding, Princess Gao Yang hurriedly ran out, stood in the hall facing Li Shimin, and said sternly, "Father, you took Mu Bai away, what am I? Do it?"
The expressions of everyone present changed, Li Ke hurriedly stood up and whispered: "Ling'er, Hugh is rude!"
"I, why am I rude?" Princess Gao Yang argued without thinking, and then hurriedly bowed down and said in a begging tone, "Father, I beg you! I can't control your important affairs, but ......If you transfer Mu Bai away, please let him take me with you? If I leave him...I will really die!"
Li Shimin's face twitched fiercely, took a deep breath, and calmly said: "Ling'er, get up first, this matter must be discussed in the long term."
"Is there any long-term plan? Can't you agree to it now?" Princess Gao Yang raised her head and looked directly at Li Shimin's sharp eyes without retreating, and said stubbornly.
Li Daozong got up and walked to Princess Gao Yang and said in a low voice: "Ling'er, you are so confused. You are the princess of Datang, the emperor's favorite daughter. You want your father to agree to Qin Mubai now. |Take you away, have you ever thought about it, your dignified princess, would you want to elope with Qin Mubai anonymously? In this way, not only did the Tang royal family become the laughing stock of others, your father's face was lost. You princess will also be laughed at? Even if you are obsessed and don't care about this, you should always consider Qin Mubai's reputation and future? Your father said that this matter must be discussed long-term, but it is not perfunctory. . I, the emperor, the little old man, never lied to you, you should know this?"
Princess Gao Yang pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Oh... then I will follow it first."
"Get up quickly and apologize to your father." Li Daozong smiled and lifted Princess Gao Yang from the ground.
Princess Goyang stood up, she was still angry just now, and then she laughed and joked again. She briskly ran to Li Shimin and sat down next to him. She stretched out a hand to caress his bulging belly. She giggled and said, "Your Majesty Father, keep your breath away and not be angry with Ling'er. Is it okay? It's Ling'er who doesn't know the style anyhow, so forgive Ling'er for being young and ignorant!"
Li Shimin was immediately amused. He stretched out his big hand and patted her little cheek lightly. He laughed and said, "Look at this ghost girl, this face becomes even faster than in June. !"
Li Daozong and Li Ke also cooperated with laughter, and secretly said in their hearts: If you want to say that the emperor has the best solution in the world, it is Princess Gaoyang! She can make the Emperor Thunder furious in an instant, and she can make him laugh in the next instant! ...It's really born with everything, one thing drops one thing!
