Two days later, the Ministry of Defense gave Qin Mubai a letter, sending him 10,000 elite Guanzhong cavalry as well as grain, grass and equipment. Fang Xuanling said that the action on the Ministry of War was fairly fast. After all, the money and food for soldiers and horses are ready to be used, but the actions on the Ministry of Hus and Zongzheng Temple are not fast. The dowry distributed to Princess Wencheng is numerous and complicated. , I am afraid that it is difficult to prepare properly for ten days and a half months.

In addition, Qin Mubai was afraid that the military situation would be delayed, so Qin Mubai was ready to leave first, leaving one or two thousand cavalry to Su Dingfang to **** Li Daozong and his daughter all the way.

Ten thousand elite Kwantung cavalry is not a small number. But for the environment of Lanzhou facing a major battle, it seems a bit petty. However, Qin Mubai didn't plan to pass it. He would personally select the ten thousand cavalrymen in the army, and he must keep improving.

So he spent another three days, together with Su Dingfang, among the recruits of the field army and the imperial army in Chang'an. Since many of the sixteen guards came from the "Higher Military Academy" of Baiqi, they were still protégés of the old principal, Qin Mubai, so it was quite convenient.

A few days later, Qin Mubai selected 10,000 elite Yueqiang very harshly, which caused many 16-guard generals to suffer a lot of pain, only the most powerful soldiers in their army. They are all picked away. In addition, Qin Mubai was not polite with Fang Xuanling. He picked up all the weapons, equipment and horses and vehicles. In addition, the court promised to give Qin Mubai one hundred guards of one hundred horses as personal guards. This was what satisfied him the most.

When he came to the camp of Baiqi, Qin Mubai waved his arms. Almost all the soldiers in the camp were willing to go with him to Lanzhou. The Datang National Martial Court attaches great importance to military merit, and those who serve as soldiers must fight in order to be born. So the selection of these 100 people can be regarded as a headache for Qin Mubai. Since many people who are in Baiqi have family backgrounds, there are still many people who come to the back door to intercede with Qin Mubai, begging him to take his nephew to the front line to mix in. Among them, there are also six books and senior generals in the army.

At this time, it was a good opportunity to make connections and network contacts. Without breaking the principle, Qin Mubai agreed to all those who went through the back door as much as possible. Of course, the most basic prerequisite is that the quality of this Baiqi cannot be poor. In addition, the original 30 hundred horses, without the broken arm Zhao Tong and the few who died in the attack on Fang Yiai that day, and more than 20 people left, became the core and elders of this group. Bringing the new with the old makes it easy for these people to gather together.

Within a few days, Qin Mubai was very busy, rushing to the military camps and Baiqi camps outside Chang'an, as well as the military cabinet. There was no time to accompany Gaoyang Princess Wu Meiniang and her family. Finally ready, Qin Mubai planned to leave tomorrow. Before leaving, he had to ask Su Dingfang to go to the Jiangxia Palace and talk.

So that night, Qin Mubai and Su Dingfang came to visit Jiangxia Palace.

The palace is also extremely busy. Many officials and people sent by the court are arranging the dowry that will be brought to the wedding. Qin Mubai glanced hurriedly, dumbfounded. The backyard of the huge palace is almost full of cars, and every car is full of things, heavily wrapped. This is only a small and a half, and it doesn't include those craftsmen and musicians who will go to Tubo to marry together. If they are gathered together, it is estimated that the momentum will not lose to the tens of thousands of troops!

"It's no wonder Fang Xuanling said that this side is not ready for a while. It will take half a month." Qin Mubai shook his head, "marrying a daughter, you have to pay so much manpower and material resources. This is enough to decorate a palace. Got it!"

"It is estimated to be possible." Su Dingfang seldom expressed such opinions. He shook his head gently and said, "For all ages, it is us who have lost money in marriages between Han and Hu. We have to fight for a few years of peace. This reminds me of the actions of the villagers in the face of mountain bandits during the chaos and chaos-what is the difference between us and spending money to sell disasters?"

"Confucian scholars have the idea of ​​Confucian scholars, and soldiers have the ideas of soldiers. I'm afraid we will never think of going with them." Qin Mubai picked up the corner of his mouth and shook his head, sighed, "Nothing, this is the end of the matter, take a step Count it one step. Go and visit the prince first."

"Um, good."

The two men were led by the officials to pierce through the mansion for a while, and they were all busy people grinding their shoulders one after another. Only one courtyard was relatively quiet, and the official led the two to here.

"The two generals, this is the boudoir of my princess. The prince is in the princess's boudoir, and the two are pleased." The official said and left.

The two walked into the small courtyard and heard the melodious sound of a pipa.

Qin Mubai listened to a few notes at once, and couldn't help feeling a move in his heart: It's a familiar tune. Although it was a little rusty and intermittent, it was vaguely audible. It was actually "Lanzhou Hong"!

So Qin Mubai pulled Su Dingfang and asked him to stop and listened. Although the tune was unfamiliar, it was not smooth or excellent, but Qin Mubai vaguely heard a hint of worry from the tune.

Lanzhou Hongben is a kind of sad and desolate song. It is not surprising that there is such a song. But it's not easy to really have that kind of touching sorrow, instead of wringing for Fu Xinci. Unless this person's heart has sorrow and sorrow that cannot be expressed from the bone marrow, it is possible to play music with the heart.

"What a sad tune...it makes people think of the sad things in the past." Su Dingfang listened for a moment, and said softly, "Will the princess play it?"

At this moment, the sound of the pipa in the room stopped, and a female voice said: "Father, why do I always play this song badly?"

"You only listened to it twice on Zhongnan Mountain. It’s pretty good to be able to play like this." It was Li Daozong’s voice, thick and vigorous, but at this moment there was a bit of fatigue and loss. He said, "If you want Music score, I went to him and said, why are you so entangled?"

"No more..." the female voice said, "I heard him swear by myself that day that he would never play again."

"I just want a score, what does it matter?"

"Father, you won't understand." The female voice said, "For a person who likes music, the soulmate is very important, just like the companion of the soul. When the soulmate leaves, the music will also It didn’t make sense to him, or it just meant sadness. Father Wang asked him for a score, and he would naturally give it. But I didn’t want to force him or touch his sadness. Lanzhouhong belonged to both of them. Yes, I can’t offend the holy soulmate in his heart."

Li Daozong smiled helplessly: "Well, it's up to you! Just so much of your little daughter's mind. Yan'er, you still have to marry to Tubo in the end, you really..."

"Father, you don't need to say." Li Xueyan interrupted Li Daozong's words and said, "In the beginning, I was brave enough to marry Tubo far away, and no one forced me. Now it's done, and my daughter has no complaints. No regrets. Only hate, I am afraid that I will not be able to fulfill my filial piety before my parents in this life..."

"I just can't figure it out, why do you have to marry Zizong and praise that barbarian?" Li Daozong became a little angry and snorted, "I can't pick a man suitable for you. Husband? I don’t believe it!"

"Not so, Father..." Li Xueyan's voice fell a bit lower, revealing a lot of sadness.

"Well, that's the end of the matter, I won't talk about you for my father." Li Daozong sighed and said, "Your mother is sorrowful and ill. You can spend more time with her these days. Hey!"

"Why should the father sigh?" Li Xueyan persuaded Li Daozong in turn, and said softly, "This is a good story for my daughter to marry Tubo. It will be a good story for my daughter to marry Tubo. If we can exchange for decades of peace between the two countries, and give alms on the plateau. Cultivation, the daughter has done some useful things in this life. Tubo people are also humans. They have no choice when they are born into the womb of their parents. It is not their fault, and the father and king don’t need to discriminate against them. In fact, as long as they can accept it. Civilized and enlightened, they are equally lovable and lovely."

"Well, I can't speak to you." Li Daozong said, "Every time you have to use your father to teach theory, it seems that our father and daughter have fallen in the same generation!-You should sigh your fate. However, I couldn't meet him earlier!"

Li Daozong's unintentional words caused Qin Mubai and Su Dingfang standing in the courtyard to be stunned at the same time. Su Dingfang immediately shook his head and laughed softly, "Mu Bai, you are really merciful everywhere!" "

"Huh? How can I...this, don't do my business!"

"Then who do you think the prince would say?"

"It won't be me anyway! I have met the princess two or three times in total, without saying a few words!"

"This is the way the little girls think, they just like love at first sight, what can you do?"

"..." Qin Mubai was speechless at once, thinking: guilty of peach blossom again? ……also?

"Who is in the courtyard?" Li Daozong's thick voice sounded, and then he opened the door.

The two hurriedly stepped forward and bowed their hands: "I took the liberty to disturb the prince, sin!"

"Oh, it's your brothers!" Li Daozong laughed, "The family is rude, and they didn't even come to report, so please don't be blamed. Please come in and sit down!"

"This is the princess's boudoir, I won't go in anymore!" Qin Mubai smiled, "I have nothing else to do when I come, just let the prince know that the military situation is urgent, I will have it tomorrow. When the army left first, I asked the seniors to **** the prince and his daughter to Lanzhou, and then Qin would greet him in Lanzhou."

"Okay." Li Daozong nodded and said, "Come here, come in and sit, it doesn't matter! This king is not pedantic, there are not so many rules and restrictions in the family, and Yan'er has always been very hospitable. If you go through the door If you don’t enter, she will blame the king for his poor hospitality."

"So...I interrupted."

Qin Mubai and Su Ding easily followed Li Daozong into the room. Li Xueyan had collected the pipa and prepared an incense case, and was raising the fire to make tea in response to the reception. When Qin Mubai went in, she met her for a moment, and saw a rare trace of panic in her eyes, her face was a little red, but she quickly returned to normal, and she came to entertain the guests in a decent and elegant manner. Up.

Whether it's past and present, Qin Mubai is a veteran in love. How can this kind of girl's feelings that are beginning to escape his eyes? After this shocking glance, Qin Mubai sighed in his heart: guilt! I never thought about seduce you, what's wrong with you? You have already promised a man...Well, although I am very disgusted with this marriage, in short, you are tempted by me now, you are still Li Daozong's daughter, this will make me feel uncomfortable about it!

Li Daozong's eyes are like eagles and falcons, looking at his face and looking into the woods. After seeing Qin Mubai's expression with a slight strangeness that is extremely difficult to detect, he can't help but smile and said, "Mu Bai, what are you thinking?"

"Nothing." Qin Mubai chuckled and concealed the past naturally, and said, "I'm thinking, it's a pity that the prince, such a good daughter, will marry a Tubo barbarian."

"Oh, you silly little thing!" Li Daozong laughed loudly, "Could it be that you have an attempt to my wild goose?"

"Huh?" Qin Mubai was stunned.

Su Dingfang was drinking tea, shaking his hands and tightening his mouth, almost no tea came out!

Li Xueyan immediately blushed to the root of her neck, and said anxiously: "Father, why are you so open-minded?"

"Haha!" Li Daozong laughed even louder, sitting on the puddle and patted his knees and said loudly, "Isn't it normal for young men to love women? It is more reasonable for heroes to love beauty and beauty to admire heroes. Among them. If you are allowed to do it, forbid me to say it? Really!"

Li Xueyan was immediately embarrassed, her face flushed so much that she could almost pinch water out.

Qin Mubai also couldn't laugh or cry, shook his head and said: "Master, how do you make fun of it, that's okay. Why bother to catch up with the princess? Why can't we do it? You can't tell you, you're a vain and chase! "

"Haha! This king just made a joke, don't take it seriously." Li Daozong smiled, "Hey, I would rather you and Yan'er be in love with each other. This is the brown emperor's marriage! It's just the end of the matter. National affairs are important, and the king can’t abandon his official duties for private purposes, so he often tossed and turned in the middle of the night, so he didn’t worry!-Who wants his precious daughter to marry a barbaric land thousands of miles away?"

"Father, it's not because of your daughter that you have always advocated using soldiers against Tubo, right?" Li Xueyan said suddenly.

"Nonsense! Is being a father so selfish and narrow?" Li Daozong snorted softly, and said, "If it is for this reason, how could I promise to make people proud to marry Tubo bravely at first? Besides, nowadays The imperial court made a resolution, for the father to give up you without a word, and prepare you a dowry blatantly? Private selfishness, public opinion, for the father to die for the Tang, you are my daughter who inherited this from me Temperament, I know this. But parents would rather suffer their own sins than their children...You will not understand this mood for the time being!"

"Father, my daughter knew it was wrong..." Li Xueyan lowered her head and said ashamed.

"Poor parents in the world." Qin Mubai said, "The prince is an upright and upright hero, and he has done a lot for the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the princess marrying Tubo is like plucking your heart. Meat. Such a mind and measure are admirable!"

"Okay, don't flatter me!" Li Daozong waved his hands and smiled bitterly, "I had known that there would be today, I would rather have Yan'er a son!"

"Father, what are you talking about?" Li Xueyan said angrily, "Daughter... the daughter is really bad, isn't it as good as the man?"

"Hehe, the princess, you are wrong to blame the prince." Qin Mubai said, "the prince means that you are reluctant to leave him, not patriarchal."

"Yan'er, you are still young after all, and you still don't understand many things." Li Daozong said emotionally, "Maybe you won't understand these things until you become a wife and mother. It's good for a thousand days at home, but it's hard for a day to go out. . When you arrive in Tubo, you will miss your family and your homeland."

"Father, these daughters you are talking about understand." Li Xueyan nodded and said seriously, "My daughter is here to go to Tubo, not for play or willfulness, but to realize my ideals. Just like my father. Like the king, why would he die for Tang’s sake, and what would his daughter spend his life in order to spread the education in the barren land of the plateau?"

The three men were silent. What this young woman said could penetrate people's hearts like a sharp sword.

The four chatted for a while, and Qin Mubai and Su Ding were ready to leave. When he was leaving, Qin Mubai asked Li Daozong to borrow the Four Treasures of the study, he wrote and drew for a while in a study room next door, took out some papers, and gave them to Li Daozong.

Li Daozong took a look and said in surprise: "The score of "Lanzhou Hong"? Well, there is another song "When is the Mingyue?" with a song? Mu Bai, the king of Lanzhou Hongben knows, when will the Mingyue be available Is the tune created by you?...... This phrase is very good!"

"Just take it!" Qin Mubai smiled slightly and said, "Lanzhou Hong is the posthumous work of Yaoer, but she does not belong to her alone. As long as someone likes it, he can learn and practice. If it can be spread It’s not a bad thing to come down. I hope that more people will remember the demon. Besides, this song is sometimes heard in Mingyue, and no one in the world has heard it before, except me. It’s just me. The wedding gift of the princess, if the princess misses his family’s homeland when he is away in a foreign country, just play it and listen."

"Yan'er, here you are." Li Daozong handed these pieces of paper to Li Xueyan and said, "It seems that Qin Mubai is not as small as you think!"

"Thanks a lot..." Li Xueyan took the paper and thanked her softly, but her expression looked a little unnatural, with a slight sadness in the embarrassment of her low eyebrows.

Qin Mubai and Su Dingfang left.

Li Xueyan held the pieces of paper in her hand and looked at it carefully, and sighed: "Father, whether it is Lanzhou Hong or Mingyue Song, they are all the best sings in this world. Daughter. It’s a great honor to get Qin Mubai’s personally donated scores. It’s just...I’m afraid I won’t hear him for playing music in my life."

"Life is unsatisfactory, nine out of ten." Li Daozong stood at the door with his back cut his hands, looked up at the sky, sighed, and said, "The life you choose by yourself, no one can do it."

"Ah!" At this moment, Li Xueyan suddenly screamed.

"What's wrong?"

"Qin Mubai sent me music scores. Did you hear what we were talking about?" Li Xueyan touched her hot flushed face with both hands and said with wide eyes.

"What did you hear?" Li Daozong said disapprovingly, "You are now willing to marry Qin Mubai. As long as he is willing to marry, this king will fight for his fame and fortune in this life and his life will immediately satisfy you-just care about him What Tubo Zanpu!"

"..." Li Xueyan was completely speechless, holding the piece of paper and starting to daze.
