A few days later.
Li Ke looked at the bronze mirror and carefully examined his clothes, and only after confirming that there was nothing wrong with him, did he smile slightly, and said to the servant girl beside him: "Is Qin Mubai here?"
"In reply to your Highness, General Qin has arrived in the main hall and has been waiting for His Highness for a long time."
"Asshole, why not report it early?"
With a scolding, Li Ke walked out of the bedroom straight to the main hall, and saw Qin Mubai sitting there drinking tea, he laughed: "Mubai, you are here!"
"It's really refreshing for people to have happy occasions, Your Highness, you are really red today." Qin Mubai smiled.
"Are you there?" Li Ke smiled happily and sat down, and said, "I went to the capital, and all the important military and political affairs of Xiangzhou will be entrusted to you. Before I come back, it will take hard work. You are for a while!"
"It's okay. I called the boy Pang Fei back to take care of the military mansion. As for myself, I can temporarily take the post of your governor's mansion and live the addiction of sitting in the government." Qin Mubai smiled. Tao.
"Haha!" Li Ke laughed, very hearty.
But before today, Li Ke was very troubled and depressed.
After coming out of the underground palace, Qin Mubai never asked him what he saw on the jade bed, nor did he come forward to see it. But judging from Li Ke's expressions and expressions, he should have been a little shocked, so his mood became a little unstable.
No wonder, no one thought that there was such a huge secret hidden in Xihecao, and this secret was somewhat related to Li Ke. Can he not get excited?
Finally, Li Ke was also hesitated about how to deal with Yuxi. On the one hand, he may have a little selfishness. On the other hand, he always feels that he has got a piece of hot mountain 竽, and it is not a sacrifice or not. Before he found Yang Guang's corpse, he had a clearer mind, and he should have dedicated the jade seal to the emperor.
But after seeing Yang Guang's body, he seemed a little hesitant. Without asking, Qin Mubai knew what he had concerns—taking what he found in the mausoleum of his grandfather and offering flattery to his father seemed embarrassing. Furthermore, those who have obtained the jade seal are the true emperor of "destined to heaven." He Li Ke came from Chang'an, and got the jade seal "left" by his grandfather in a place like Xihecao by accident, but he could only give it away eagerly, and he was somewhat unwilling.
Speaking of which, Qin Mubai clearly knew that Li Ke's demons and ambitions were at work!
The appearance of this jade seal has unprecedentedly nurtured Li Ke's desire and expanded his ambition. Seeing this scene, Qin Mubai certainly had to find a way to convince him and let him dispel this desire and ambition. So he cited an example from the Three Kingdoms period-Sun Jian got the jade seal and hid it privately, and died of chaotic arrows before he had time to brew the hegemony; Yuan Shude Yuxi was proclaimed emperor under the swelling ambitions, and was condemned to death by the world. Very bleak.
Jade Seal is a symbol of imperial power and destiny. This is true, but if it is privately possessed by a person who has no strength and a bad name, it is a way to take trouble.
Hearing this, Li Ke suddenly became clear-the jade seal is just a symbol, a symbol, it does not bring the magic of imperial power and hegemony, it can only be an aid and recognition after the imperial power and hegemony. To get a piece of jade and take the curse of killing is really not worth the loss. It is better to dedicate it to the current emperor, to show your loyalty and get a reward. This must be achieved!
So Li Ke decided to personally go to Beijing to offer the jade seal, and report the corpse of Yang Guangzhen and the imperial palace to his father, Li Shimin, knowing that everything is up to him.
"His Royal Highness, are everything ready?" Qin Mubai asked.
"Almost, there is nothing to prepare." Li Ke said, "It's just that the princess and daughter are a little worried, so please take care of them. Especially the princess, who is very sick."
"Well, I know." Qin Mubai nodded, "Yuwen Hongtai took the royal soldiers to guard the mausoleum. I will transfer Xue Rengui to the mansion, so you will feel more at ease."
"Alright. Anyway, everything is up to you. I don't worry if you are there." Li Ke nodded and smiled in relief.
"Then don't delay, let's go!" Qin Mubai said, "Get into the battle lightly and gallop, and the sooner you arrive in Chang'an, the sooner you can present the Yuxi seal, the better, so as not to have many nights and dreams. I have already selected 15 people. The most capable Baiqi escorts you all the way, so you can keep the journey safe."
"Okay, then I will leave immediately. Hurry up and go three hundred miles a day and get to Chang'an within five days!" Li Ke got up and walked forward, patted Qin Mubai's arm with one hand, "Thank you You, Mu Bai. Everything here is up to you."
"Go!" Qin Mubai nodded and smiled.
Li Ke nodded heavily and strode out of the main hall. In the yard, fifteen heavily armed soldiers, each led by three horses, escorted a car, and stood by.
Qin Mubai walked out and said loudly: "Hundred riders listening!"
"No!"
"Escort your Royal Highness to the capital. If there is a slight mistake, come and see you all!"
"No!--"
Li Ke nodded with satisfaction: "True mighty teacher. With a hundred horses, I am completely relieved. Let's go, Mu Bai, see you later!"
"Go and go back quickly, sitting in a church is really not suitable for me. I can't help it. Don't think I really like it." Qin Mubai smiled.
"Come on, I don't know you yet." Li Ke smiled and got into the car. All hundreds of horses drove on their horses neatly, and soon went away.
Qin Mubai finally breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head, and secretly said: Fortunately, he persuaded Li Ke that he did not hide the jade seal. Otherwise... the consequences are really unimaginable! In the feudal era, things like Yuxi really had the magical power of chaos. Fortunately, I am a person from the 21st century. In my opinion, this kind of thing is an antique, at most a seal or official seal. Losing a small life for a piece of "official seal" is really worthless.
While thinking about it, he walked into Li Ke's study, which is the office, and saw Li Ke's set of official uniforms here, Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing. Picking up the historian's robe and making gestures on his body, he smiled by himself: "Yes, let's be the mayor again. It's fun."
"Come here, change clothes!"
"Yes."
Several maids hurried in and helped Qin Mubai put on scarlet historian robes, which were quite fit. Then, he swaggered to the governor's government office, and the officials and the officials, Cao Zhengmen, were already taking care of official duties. Li Ke had already confessed his words, so it was not surprising that they saw Qin Mu today. Instead, they came to see him in the courtesy of the governor and reported various work requests, instructions and rulings.
Qin Mubai is also not polite. Even though he is an acting governor, he has to do it early. If he decides he should make his own decision. If he decides the order, he will approve the order, and he will all regard himself as the real governor. Anyway, Li Ke also had the first words and gave full authority to Qin Mubai. From this time on, he was the king of Wu and he was the provincial governor of Xiangzhou.
It's just that the officials of the governor's house are a little drummer: a military attache who sends the governor to take care of government affairs and people's livelihood is too trivial! The friendship returned to the friendship, this time Wang Wu was really cronyism. There are still so many officials in the governor's mansion. Picking one at random is better than getting a military officer who doesn't understand civil affairs.
But at the end of the day, the public officials were shocked and convinced Qin Mubai.
They didn't expect that Qin Mubai would be so good at handling people's livelihood and government affairs. Although he is relatively unfamiliar with people's livelihood and government affairs, he can always understand quickly after listening to his subordinates' explanations, and he will put forward his own ideas and make decisions by inferences. In contrast, Qin Mubai was able to listen to his subordinates later than Li Ke, and these subordinate officials were more willing to put forward their opinions so that Qin Mubai could learn from the decision.
Keen, open-minded, listening, well-planned, and long-term--this is the impression and feeling of Qin Mubai among government officials.
As for Shengtang's questioning case, it is Qin Mubai's masterpiece. Regardless of whether it was a major or minor case, Qin Mubai tried to understand the details of the law, and he knew the provisions of the law more clearly, and he was shocked by Chen Tang's pen and the secretary of the law. . As for the remarks on the merits of the case, it was reasonable. The plaintiff and the defendant were convinced that there was nothing to say. The people and gentry who were listening to the case often burst into cheers and applause, and raised their thumbs to praise.
"It turns out that sitting on the board of directors is also very fun. If you continue to mess around like this, don't you have to make a plaque of'Qin Qingtian' and hang it?" Qin Mubai couldn't help but laugh.
In the past few days, Li Ke was trapped by Yuxi and left some of the accumulated government affairs to waste. Therefore, it will take some time to deal with these accumulated cases. After a busy day, Qin Mubai really felt a little tired. The meals were all solved in the case room. At night, the biggest thought was to fall on the bed and sleep well.
Just as he was about to leave the Cishi Mansion to go to the inn to rest, Su Lianqing found him and said, Princess Wu would like to invite him.
"What did the princess call me?" Qin Mubai asked her.
"How do I, a maidservant, know about the host's affairs?" Su Lianqing rolled his eyes and said with a lively expression, "Want to get news from me? There is no door!"
"Looking at your posture, do you want to seek some benefits?" Qin Mubai smiled, "Tell you, there is no door at all."
"Iron rooster!" Su Lianqing cursed with an angry smile, "Hey, sister is gone, aren't you lonely again?"
"Could it be that you want to seduce me again?"
"No!" Su Lianqing pouted and said with a grin, "I just want to know if a man like you is on the bed, is it the same vigorously!"
"Go to death, that's not the same thing!" Qin Mubai shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, "I'm too lazy to care about you, I'll see the princess."
"Haha!" Su Lianqing laughed evilly and said, "Hurry up, the princess is waiting for you in the back hall."
In the main hall of the backyard, Qin Mubai saw Princess Wu Yang sitting in the side seat from a distance. When Qin Mubai came, she asked the maid to pick her up and greet her.
Qin Mubai hurriedly walked up to greet him and said: "The princess should sit upright, how can he get up to meet his subjects? Capital crime, capital crime!"
Yang was born very beautiful, but his face was pale because of his heavy illness, which was like a delicate flower that had withered a bit and lost a lot of brilliance. However, the natural aura of her body is lingering, and she can't help but feel a little awe.
"General Qin is serious. The general and His Royal Highness are friendly friends, enough to discuss friendship with brothers, and not to treat etiquette with respect and inferiority. In this way, the general is the uncle of the concubine. The concubine welcomes each other respectfully, just and reasonable." With a pale smile on his face, Yang said softly and weakly.
"Okay, the princess does not need to be like this. You are very sick, and you can sit still. If you have training, just say it."
Qin Mubai asked the maids to help her sit down. Yang coughed a few times, indeed he looked extremely weak. After her breath was relieved, she smiled sadly: "The concubine is ill, so I will make a long story short. You all get back!"
"Yes..." The maids and maids all retreated and closed the door.
"His Royal Highness, what do you want to say?" Qin Mubai asked, with the same curiosity in his heart.
Wu Wangfei Yang, also bears the noble lineage of the former Sui royal family, and is still a clan with Li Ke. This marriage was dominated by Li Ke's mother and the former princess of Sui, and it was a match made by everyone in heaven. Qin Mubai knew a lot about this respected princess, only that she had always been gentle, elegant, knowledgeable and well-versed. She was a typical famous lady and was extremely respected. But I have never been in contact, or even seen it formally.
"General Qin, sit down, too!" Yang said after he was seated, "General Qin is no longer an outsider, so he can speak straight if he has something to say. The concubine knows his body is heavy, and his life is short. Last wish, I want to entrust General Qin to General Qin. I wonder if General Qin is willing to do this for me?"
"What?" Qin Mubai couldn't help being taken aback. "His Royal Highness, don't say that. Your youth is prosperous, and now you are only sick with a disease. You can use some decoction in a few days. Healed, how can you casually say such bad words?"
"No. I know my body. Although Wang Wu and the doctor refused to tell me the condition, and may not disclose it to the public, I know it in my heart." Yang smiled, his voice was weak, but he said it well. More serious, he said leisurely, "General Qin, don't you want to hear about the last wish of a lowly concubine, what is it?"
Qin Mubai frowned and nodded, and said, "Of course you can help, but I don't think this is a last wish. If your Royal Highness has any wrongdoing, please tell me!"
