At dawn, Qin's Mansion was busy.
The master of the family, Qin Shubao, together with the three young masters who often live at home, set off today to go to the prefecture and county officials. This is a major event that the Qin family has never encountered. The Liu family hadn't slept for almost the whole night, with the servants and maids in the mansion, Zhang Luo prepared what they needed to set off. It ranges from large cars and horses to salutes and small ones with needles and footwear.
For Qin Mubai, this is destined to be a sleepless night.
In just over a year since he came to Datang, he didn't know why he had such a deep affection for Chang'an, this family, and many people here.
Separation is inevitable, and sadness is hard to stop.
Whenever he saw his mother's tired look and flushed eye circles, he felt a little uneasy. I wanted to persuade her to stop and rest, but couldn't persuade her.
No way, my mother is such a character. I am afraid that I will pay too little for this family, and I am afraid that I will not take good care of my husband and son. Especially for Qin Mubai, the line in the hands of the loving mother, the wandering top. Departure thick seam, meaning fear of delay in return.
Mother never expresses this kind of feelings well, and always pays for it with simple actions.
There is also Shuang'er, she is not much freer than her mother, busy all night.
Perhaps, besides Qin Mubai, Li Ke is still in her heart. This kind of separation is not something she can control, so she can only silently accept this status quo, without telling Qin Mubai as before.
Maybe she doesn't know where to start. There is a kind of sadness, beyond words. Qin Mubai understood.
At the beginning of the day, Qin Mubai went out of the room with his father. The eyes of both of them were bloodshot, and it was obvious that they didn't sleep well last night. Da Lang Qin Tong and Er Lang Qin Bin also took their family members to see them off, and a banquet was set up in Qin's house very early.
Family sitting around, Uncle Qin said: "Da Lang Erlang, after leaving for father and Saburo, you have to go home more to take care of you."
"Yes, father." The two brothers agreed together.
"Our Qin family... has been silent for too long!" After that, Qin Shubao let out a long cry and sighed, "Time is passing by, and I feel old for my father. I don't want to be able to move and work hard now. Fan, then you can only wait for the loess to be buried."
"My father, the child is ashamed..." Qin Tong and Qin Bin lowered their heads in shame.
"Don't blame you." Qin Shubao glanced at Qin Mubai subconsciously, then smiled slightly: "Every man has his own destiny, and wealth lies in the sky. For his father, he has long been destined to have no relationship with the army. Now It’s a great pleasure in life to be able to return to the frontiers of the army in the old age! But your brothers, you have to be diligent day and night, and can’t indulge yourself. The Qin family depends on you to carry forward after all!"
"Yes, father!" The three brothers replied in a deep voice.
"Okay!" Qin Mubai yelled and raised the wine, "After drinking this bowl of wine, we will go our own way! Reunion in the future, I will test you three for my father one by one!"
"My father, please!"
Drinking a bowl of spirits, Qin Shubao's face flushed a little, turned his head to look at Liu who was standing next to him, and whispered: "Sit down and have a drink with me?"
"No. For many years, I am used to standing like this." Liu bit his lip and said softly.
"I'll let you sit, you just sit!" Qin Shubao was a little annoyed, and took her forward and let her sit next to him.
Liu's staggered a little, after all, he sat down and smiled awkwardly.
"Over the years, I have worked hard for you." Qin Shubao raised a glass of wine and whispered: "I have been sick for a long time, and everything needs you to take care of it. You are the support inside and outside the house. Raising children It’s all under your control. Now it’s fine. The three sons are very good, and Shuang’er is also very good. I would like to offer you a glass in the name of the ancestors of the Qin family."
"Uncle Bao...why do you have to say this? You will be back soon, won't you?" Liu raised a glass of wine, holding back tears.
"I will come back." Qin Shubao smiled slightly, "but I don't want to hold these words in my heart. You have lived in the side room for these years, but you have taken care of everything in the Qin family without complaint or regret. In our hearts, you are already the mistress of the Qin family, haven't you? Today I announced that I will hold you upright and be the mistress of the Qin family!"
"No, don't!" Liu hurriedly waved his hand, "I don't care about this! You don't have to be like this!"
"Mother." Qin Tong said on the other side, "Just accept your father's heart and soul! My second brother and I's biological mother has been dead for many years, and you are the one who pulled us up. In our hearts, you She is our biological mother. Father acting like this is just officially giving you a suitable name, and it doesn’t matter!"
"Yes, mother, just accept it!" Qin Bin smiled slightly and said jokingly, "It's rare for my father to show his true feelings once, look at his old man, how soft his smile is at this moment!"
"Zhuzi shut up! You actually made a joke on your father!" Qin Shubao scolded a little annoyedly, and then smiled at Liu, "Whether you accept it or not, I have already prepared the paperwork anyway. As soon as I leave, I have to send it to the county government office and amend your household registration. Furthermore, my majestic Yiguo and Shangzhuguo, my main room should always have a rank of 3 or 4 or higher. Madam, right? Bin'er, you are the director of Hongwenguan, and you will take care of this matter."
"Yes, my father!" The two brothers agreed and turned back and smiled at Qin Mubai together.
Qin Mubai smiled back, but said nothing.
Actually, the reason why Qin Shubao suddenly decided to right Liu's righteousness was not mostly because of Qin Mubai?
For so many years, the Liu family has not changed much. He has always worked hard for the Qin family and has not made any special "contributions" recently. After all, isn’t mother and child expensive?
The former Qin Mubai only knew that the flying eagle and the horse were stubbornly gambling. Although the little girl in Shuang'er was well-behaved, it was not enough to change the status of the three of them in the Qin family. Now Qin Mubai has suddenly reborn in his strength, has gained strength, and has been shining, even using his own power to directly affect Qin Shubao's "reemployment"-how can Qin Shubao not know?
If it were not for the reservation of the head of the family, Qin Shubao would have to thank his son in turn! It is right for his biological mother Liu to be upright now. Although for men like Qin Mubai, it was just a matter of passing the scene; for a woman like Liu who was at ease with her concubine, it was tantamount to turning over.
The mistress of the Guogong’s family, compared to a concubine who has no status and protection, is simply the difference between clouds and mud!
Liu shed tears, wiped his tears and said: "Uncle Bao, Da Lang, Er Lang, I don't know what to say... No matter what I do, I always hope that I have not made a mistake, and never expect anything in return. Lord. Whether it’s the mother or the side room, I’m doing everything for the Qin family. If it’s troublesome, you don’t have to worry about it."
"Mother, this is not troublesome, and it should be done!" The eldest son Qin Tong said with a serious face, "You have worked hard for the Qin family for decades. This invisible and intangible kindness and achievements, we can all remember My heart! This is what you deserve!"
"Yes, mother, you don't have to refuse anymore!" Qin Bin hurriedly pulled Qin Mubai next to him, "Third brother, you just said something!"
Qin Mubai smiled slightly: "Mother, my father only said this when he was parting. It can be seen that he has been depressed in his heart for a long time. Why don't you agree and let his old man go to work with peace of mind? We have been together for decades, never leave. If you don’t abandon your love, how many people can there be in the world? My father gave you this name not because you care...but because he thinks you are worth having. You don’t care, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t care."
"The third brother is smart and clever, and can speak well." Qin Tong said hurriedly, "Mother, it's all up to this point. Are you embarrassed to reject your father's heart?"
"So...then I have to feel ashamed!" Liu said, tears raining down.
"Why are you crying, haha!" Qin Shubao laughed, and reached out his hand to wipe the tears from Liu's face, and smiled, "Women are women, they always cry."
"I'm so happy and reluctant, what do you know!" Liu smiled in tears and rolled Qin Shubao's eyes.
Qin Shuang'er has been sullen and silent. Qin Mubai kept it in his eyes, muttered to himself, and later thought of a way to persuade her. Otherwise, this silly girl might not let it go for three or two months.
Qin's family banquet did not last long and ended soon. Because a group of Qin Shubao's old friends came to see him off. Headed by Li Daozong, Li Ji, Cheng Zhijie and Yuchi Jingde, Lin Lin always came with more than ten people, all of whom were former colleagues of Qin Shubao's army.
Qin Shubao took out the golden beast head armor he hadn't worn for many years, wore two stone boxwood iron bows, carried a tiger head chiseled golden gun, wore a scarlet robe with flowers, and a gray beard fluttering on his horse. prestige.
Everyone cheered together: "Okay! My God of War of Datang, is back again!"
"Everyone, don't worry, I'll go!" Qin Shubao let out a deep cry, and the Lema man stood up and said, "If you have fate in the future, you will be in the yellow sand gale!"
"Strong!" Everyone clasped their fists together, "Take care all the way, Lord Yi Guo!"
"Farewell--"
With a few noises, Qin Shubao left with several veterans and domestic servants.
Liu hid his face and sobbed, holding Qin Mubai's hand tightly, and said: "My son, can you not walk so hurriedly and decisively like your father, and stay with you for a while? "
"Mother..." Qin Mubai said softly, "Father is such a character. Actually... He is also afraid of heroes' shortness of breath and love for children, so he swipes a knife and cuts off his love. To us, there is too much love and too much nostalgia, it is only a rare expression."
Qin Shuang'er's eyes were also red, and she whispered, "Mother, the third brother is right...The more this is the time, the less we can cry, lest my father and third brother are not at ease. Third brother, you Go ahead, don’t there be people in Prince Wu’s mansion who are all waiting for you to leave?"
"Hmm..." Qin Mubai nodded, his eyes motioned Shuang'er to walk aside with him, and said to her, "Shuang'er, we are all gone, you must be sad. But... you can date Wu Meiniang, Let's go to Xiangzhou to see us together!"
"Really...is it okay?" Shuang'er was overjoyed.
"Why not?" Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "For specific matters, you can discuss with Wu Meiniang. Now your father is not at home, and no one imposes control on you. But you must seek the approval of your mother. , Don’t make her old man anxious."
"Well, I got it!"
"Okay, let me go too!"
Qin Mubai, who was also dressed in uniform, turned over and rode on Huoyun.
Li Daozong and others sent Qin Shubao out of the Qin Mansion. They were on the street and saw Qin Mubai riding a horse. They couldn't help laughing together: "Look, just after leaving an old-fashioned Qin Shubao, another young man came out immediately. The handsome Qin Shubao! This father and son are almost carved out of the same mold, haha!"
Qin Mubai dismounted and saluted everyone, saying goodbye.
Li Daozong took a step forward, patted his shoulder helmet and pulled him aside, and said: "Boy, your sword is still kept by this king, when will you take it?"
"Haha, if the prince doesn’t say anything, I’ll forget it! The inconvenience of the Chinese New Year is to dance with swords and swords. If you can meet again in the future, you will ask the prince for advice! This kind of sword is impossible to find, and I will definitely get it!" Bai smiled.
"Okay! The kid has a bit of madness, this king likes it!" Li Daozong patted Qin Mu's white breastplate again and laughed loudly, "Go! Go ahead and do it with confidence, don't lose Give your old father whose beard is about to be white, and you must make some achievements to outdo him!"
"Thank you for your encouragement!" Qin Mubai replied, clasping his fists.
"Smelly boy, come here." On the other side, the old goblin Cheng Zhijie waved at him, and then laughed at him, "You guys are okay, I have only been away from Chang'an for less than a year. When the water rose, I hooked up with a princess." Said Cheng Zhijie laughed at Li Ji and the others: "How about it, my apprentice trained by Cheng, not bad!"
"Old devil, I don't know how to be ashamed! It's Qin Saburo's own enthusiasm, it's your shit!" Yuchi Jingde roared in an angry thunder, "Qin Saburo, I said to my unworthy son It's over. Let him practice martial arts hard day and night, and sooner or later he will overtake you. You can be careful, don't let yourself be negligent when you reach the local state or county. If you are bullied by the dog Baoyun in the future, you are not allowed to come. I cried and complained!"
"Haha! Uncle Cheng, Uncle Yuchi, don't worry, my nephew will be diligent every day and dare not slack in the slightest!" Qin Mubai clasped his fist and smiled.
"Hmm..." Cheng Zhijie rarely took a serious time and said earnestly, "We old things will not last long. It won't take more than ten or twenty years, and Datang will be your world. Qin Mubai, uncle Be optimistic about you. With time, you will be able to fly into the sky and surpass our old things. Don't let your uncle down!"
"Hmm!"
"Go, stop talking!" Yuchi Jingde roared, "It's not a goodbye to life and death, a lot of nonsense!"
"You old black ghost, you really can't spit out ivory!" Cheng Zhijie scolded in an angry manner.
"If you have the ability, you can spit one out and show it to my old man?" Yuchi Jingde sneered at Maimang.
The people next to you laughed bitterly together—well, these old friends are fighting again, regardless of occasion!
Li Ji took a step forward and gave Qin Mubai a fist first, and said, "Mubai, don't underestimate Xiangzhou. It is a battleground for military strategists in ancient times, and it is also the waterway hub of my Datang from north to south. Go Once there, it’s not as easy as staying in Chang’an. The key to running the army in local prefectures and counties is the three words-harmony, wide, and economic."
"Dare to ask the British father, what is the explanation for these three words?" Qin Mubai hurriedly asked for advice. Li Ji has served as a senior military officer in the prefectures and counties of Shandong for many years. He has more experience in this area than anyone, even Qin Shubao can't match it.
Li Ji smiled slightly and said: "Harmony means peace is the most important thing. Whether it is with his colleagues, officials of the state capital, or the squires of the common people, they must live in harmony. The army is like a fisherman. Like water, the people in the local military government offended the provincial governor or hated the people, and they must be difficult to move; wide is the skill of the people. When we are in a place, we should not think that we are superior, treat others differently and treat others differently. . Be forgiving to soldiers and compare their hearts to others, so that people can support you. Put yourself in the place for your subordinates and soldiers, and in time, they will treat you like your relatives. To be handsome, you should love soldiers as a child and win the hearts of the people."
"Thanks to the British public for the point, the younger generation will remember!" Qin Mubai clasped his fist in gratitude, "Then what about this ‘Ji’?"
"The helper, the strength and the soft." Li Ji smiled, "Being merciful to the soldiers is not the same as giving in to the weak. Military orders cannot be violated. For generals, rewards and punishments should be distinguished and impartially enforce the law. Order and prohibition. At first it sounds contradictory with'Kuan', but in fact they complement each other. As for the mystery, you have to carefully grasp it by yourself."
"Well, the younger generation remembered!"
"Okay, hurry up and go, it's really long!" Yuchi Jingde waved his hand, "It's rare for me to get together again, don't delay our drinking time!"
"Haha!" Qin Mubai laughed and turned on his horse, "Go here, my uncles, take care!"
Qin Mubai quickly disappeared into the streets of Lifang as soon as he stepped into the snow.
In the backyard of the Qin Mansion, the melodious pipa sound has been sounding for a long time, but suddenly stopped.
"Shuang'er, has he gone?"
"Let's go." Qin Shuang'er sat beside her and said softly.
"Does he hear the sound of a lute when I see him off?"
"I don't know... Third Brother, I haven't stopped for a moment since I got up today, but he still asked about you. So are you, why are you reluctant to come to the main hall for a banquet and give them a gift?" Qin Shuang'er Said.
"I dare not go..." The demon said softly, stroking the strings.
"Are you afraid of facing separation?" Shuang'er frowned slightly, "This is the reason why the third brother didn't come to say goodbye to you?"
"He...knows my mind."
Qin Mubai arrived at the Wu Prince's Mansion and saw that Li Ke and the others were already ready and just waiting to set off. Thirty hundred soldiers under Pang Fei's administration are also ready to go, waiting here.
"Let's go!" Li Ke waved his hand, then rode on the horse first, and smiled at Qin Mubai, "Mu Bai, this king will ride with you today!"
"Heh, why don't you ride in a comfortable car?" Qin Mubai smiled.
"Leaving the gentle and affectionate hometown of Chang'an, if no one chats with you along the way, wouldn't you be lonely and boring?" Li Ke jokingly laughed.
"Where, I will definitely not be lonely." Qin Mubai smiled, "because I have loneliness with me."
"Haha—Go!"
A group of nearly a thousand people drove out of the Wu Prince's Mansion and out of Chang'an City.
After a while, Qin Mubai and Li Ke stood on a slope, looking back at Chang'an.
"Mu Bai, you said, next time we come back, what will be the situation?" Li Ke asked.
"Who knows?" Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "I only know, I will definitely come back again!"
"Okay! Say goodbye to Chang'an!" Li Ke held his fist in the direction of Chang'an, "Farewell to Chang'an, we will definitely come back again!"
