Qin Mubai’s family stayed in Gaochang for a few days to rest and worship Qin Shubao.
Gaochang, this place where Qin Shubao died in battle. There is a statue of him on Flame Mountain. This is also the birthplace of Qin Shubao's miracle. Many legends about Qin Shubao have gradually been deified by word of mouth, saying that he often appeared to guard the people of Gaochang and protect the safety of business travelers on the Silk Road.
In the eyes of the Chinese people, heroes and bears are all counting on the fallen leaves to return to their roots. But Qin Shubao died in a battle and his bones were burned to ashes. Now he is with Qin Mubai's side, wandering all over the world. In front of the statue, Qin's mother Liu, Shuang'er and others could not help crying with emotion.
"San Lang, you should really go back to the Central Plains and bury your father's ashes in the hometown of the Qin nationality in Licheng, Qizhou." Liu said, "Liuye return to the root, who doesn't want to return to the root..."
"It's a child who is not filial... Since the last time he married Gao Yang and left Chang'an, he has never been able to set foot in the Central Plains." Qin Mubai was helpless and had no choice but to say, "But our family has settled in the Western Regions, and there will be us My second hometown. When I settle down, I will choose a place where my father will be buried. From then on, my Qin family will be rooted in the Western Regions!"
At the same time, a solemn and solemn ceremony is being held in the Tai Chi Hall of Chang'an Imperial City.
——Li Ke, crowned and heir!
Shortly after Li Ji returned to court, this long-delayed event was finally put on the agenda and officially held.
Li Shimin summoned him and gave him the title of Prince Wu Li Ke and crowned him himself. The beautiful photos were high, and hundreds of civil and military officials came to the scene, the colorful flags flew up and the golden armor was dazzling, cheering and thunderous.
Since Li Ke has been appointed as the reserve, a team of civil and military officials must be formed to assist Li Ke. At this point, Li Shimin can be described as exhausting.
The first one to bear the brunt is Sun Wuji, the first minister of Zhenguan. Before this, he was Li Ke's biggest resistance. In order to reconcile his relationship with Li Ke, Li Shimin took a lot of thoughts publicly and privately. This time he became the Crown Prince, in addition to letting Changsun Wuji continue to serve as Situ and Shang Shu Zuo Pu shooter, he also specially designated him as the prince and grandmaster-becoming Li Ke's teacher!
Fang Xuanling, another important minister, was appointed as the crown prince.
Li Ji, the first military leader, served as the prince Taibao.
Chu Suiliang, Ma Zhou, and other important ministers of the court, divided into important positions in Chunfang; the former head of the Prince Wu’s Mansion Shi Quan Wanji, who served as Prince Zhan Shi, is equivalent to the chief of Donggong affairs, and still assists Li Ke in his side. .
The Kansai army that returned to the dynasty was reorganized into an army of the two guards directly under the emperor-the left and right dragons and Wuwei, who always guarded Chang'an.
Xue Rengui was awarded the title of the champion general (third rank officer) due to his outstanding military exploits and was given the title of General Youlong Wuwei. He commanded the most elite group of royal battlefield princes in the capital, and became the patron saint of Chang'an. Symbol of the first combat power of the Tang Dynasty; Pang Fei was appointed as the general of the left guard gate guard, commanding the imperial city's imperial forest army, guarding the Daming Palace and Taiji Palace.
It is worth mentioning that the generals of the Guanxi army after returning to the imperial court, in addition to holding important positions in the sixteen guards, also assigned the prince Dongying six commanders, all of which were brought under Li Ke's command.
In this way, a new team of courtiers centered on Li Ke was formed.
Until the coronation ceremony and various canonizations were over, the ministers suddenly remembered one thing: why today, there is no mention of a person who should be the most important person--
Qin Mubai?
……
Only ten days after the crown prince was crowned, the imperial court called Li Ke to be the chief commander of the Liaodong Road march, and Li Ji and Li Daozong as the deputy commanders to conquer Liaodong!
Xue Rengui, Li Daliang, Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Zhijie and a group of generals led a total of 300,000 troops of the left and right Longwuwei, the left and right guards, and followed Li Ke's command, and they were on the march!
Ingenious, Li Shimin asked Changsun Wuji to serve as Li Ke's marching commander and travel to Liaodong together. Fang Xuanling, the steward of the Tang Dynasty, is still the governor of the post. Pang Fei was sent to Dengzhou to supervise the building of sea-going ships, and the navy of Governor Datang belonged to Li Ke, who assisted in the cross-sea attack.
Before the expedition, Li Ke went to the harem to pay goodbye to Li Shimin.
"Father, my son is about to go out tomorrow." Li Ke said, "It takes a long time to go to Liaodong, Guanshan, and I don’t know when I will come back to serve my father. I also ask my father to take a rest and take care of the dragon. Body."
"I know it in my heart." Li Shimin said, "I think twice about the matter you mentioned to me, and decide to do what you suggested."
Li Ke moved in his heart, and said: "Does it mean that Qin Mubai was made a nominee of the county?"
"That's right." Li Shimin frowned slightly, but his eyes lit up, and said, "In the years before and after I became the throne, I have shaved off a lot of the royal princes of my Li family. Since then, Except for the returned foreign Khan Jieli, Abandoned Zong Nongchan, etc., Datang has never conferred any king with a different surname. Earlier you proposed to make Qin Mubai a king, and I refused with one mouthful. But afterwards, I thought about it. We have weighed the pros and cons again and again, for the long-term stability of the Western Regions and for Datang’s conquest of Liaodong without worries, I decided to make Qin Mubai king!"
"Father is wise!" Li Ke was a little happy, and bowed his hands in prayer, "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty are initially set, and the pattern is unclear. People's hearts are unstable. A top beam and big pillar are needed to lift this half of the country. Although Su Dingfang and others have outstanding abilities, but Their reputation in the Western Regions is not enough to convince the public, especially those of the foreign chiefs and the people of all races. They only recognize Qin Mubai as the'son of the true god'. Now Qin Mubai has resigned and has no real power and has made him king. But it can stabilize the hearts of the people in the Western Regions. In addition, Mu Bai was originally a royal prince, and with his outstanding achievements, it is not an exaggeration to be named a king."
"You're right." Li Shimin also nodded his approval, "Actually, the rules are all set by people. After the Han Dynasty was not named the king of different surnames, all dynasties and generations generally followed this approach. But Qin Mubai did it like this. People, it’s not an exaggeration to be crowned kings. If someone can make his contribution and reach his height in the future, they will be qualified to be crowned kings. Otherwise, even people who have not been crowned kings in the Li family will Shut up for me!"
Li Ke took a long sigh of relief: Well, before leaving, he finally took care of this big event! Mu Bai was named a king, which means that he can stay in the Western Regions forever. Not only can the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty be peaceful from now on, but Mu Bai can also enjoy a good end, and his achievements will be glorious forever!
"As for the titles of the county king, I have drafted a few, why don't you give me a copy?" Li Shimin said, "One is the Loulan county king, the other is the Yuyang county king, and the third is the Gongyue county king." /
The meaning of Li Shimin's words is obvious. Loulan, Yumenguan and Yangguan are either military towns or deserted beaches at present, and there are no residents, so there is no food town. If the first two are granted, they are purely short-term princesses, with only the title of Juelu, no land or food.
And Gongyue City is different. Gongyue City is the companion capital of the northern court of the former Western Turks, and it is also a hub city on the Silk Road. It is not only a densely populated city, but also a prosperous business traveler. If you can enjoy some food here, it is undoubtedly the rich one, and future generations will not worry about food and clothing.
After some thoughts, Li Ke said: "Father, my son is in a humble opinion. Since Qin Mubai has been generously appointed as king, I will do it to the end and give him some food. Gongyue City is a major town in the Western Regions. If Qin Mubai can be allowed to settle here, it will undoubtedly mean that Datang has laid a solid foundation in the Western Regions. With Gongyue City as the center, our Datang is located in more than ten capitals of the Western Regions, and it will be convenient for us in the future. Administrative order!"
Li Shimin was silent for a while after listening, apparently thinking deeply. Finally, he nodded, "Well, then I will make Qin Mubai the king of Gongyue County, eight hundred households in the town; the descendants will be hereditary!"
Just as the angel holding the imperial edict left Chang'an, Qin Mubai's family also set off from Gaochang to Samojian.
Qin Mubai was worried about the jewel of Liujia in his heart, so he didn't dare to delay any more and set off early. When he arrived in the Western Regions, Qin Mubai seemed to be "swimming a dragon into the sea." Every state, counties, and foreigners came to worship. Along the way, there is no shortage of soldiers and horses to **** vehicles. Therefore, the journey is not hard, and it goes fast.
More than a month later, Qin Mubai's family finally set foot in Samuel to build a city! He rushed to Wu Meiniang's Prime Minister's Mansion in a hurry, but no one was found. Hearing someone reported back, saying that today's "Queen is in labor", Wu Meiniang went to the palace to accompany her.
Qin Mubai hurriedly took his family to the palace. No one here knew him, so he went straight into the harem and arrived at the palace of the Crescent Queen.
Sure enough, people entering and exiting here are extremely nervous and busy, and Wu Meiniang is waiting anxiously outside the bedroom. Seeing Qin Mubai and his party coming over, Wu Meiniang came up overjoyed and knelt in front of Liu: "My daughter-in-law has seen my mother-in-law!"
"Good wife, get up!" Liu's family has always liked Wu Meiniang the most, and he lifted her up with joy, "Meiniang, after a few years, you have become more beautiful and capable, and you have become the prime minister of Zhaowu country! I am so happy to see you for my mother!"
As soon as the words fell, the door to the queen's bedroom was opened, and Su Lianqing rushed out from the inside and exclaimed in surprise: "Here, he was born! Haha, the baby of the dragon and the phoenix!——Huh, Qin Mubai, you Come? Come right!"
"Have you given birth? Or twin twins?" Qin Mubai greeted him with joy, clasping Su Lianqing's arms tightly with both hands, incoherently excited, "I, can I go in? Is it okay? "
"Let go, you are going to crush the old lady!" Su Lianqing broke free in annoyance, glanced at Yuwen Hongtai who was hiding behind, and ran over happily, ignoring the presence of countless people, and jumped up. He pounced on Yuwen Hongtai's body.
"You have finally returned, my old lady wants to kill you!" Su Lianqing put his arms around his neck, his legs were clamped around his waist, and he kissed him presumptuously.
"The stinky lady, the third brother and the **** are all here, don't be presumptuous!" Yuwen Hongtai yelled loudly and threw Su Lianqing away.
Su Lianqing sat down on the ground and was so angry that she scolded her mother, "Smelly black, I will have you pretty soon!"
Everyone laughed. At this time, the palace doctor came out and said that everyone could go in and visit the queen.
Qin Mubai, Wu Meiniang and others rushed in eagerly, and saw Queen Pearl lying on the incense couch, her face soaked in sweat, pale and very weak, and the two maidservants holding a baby each.
"Mingzhu, I'm coming!" Qin Mubai hurriedly stepped forward and sat down in front of the couch, holding Mingzhu's hand, "Sorry, I'm late."
"It's not too late, it's not too late..." Mingzhu smiled weakly but happily, "Mubai, I have never been assertive and impatience, but this time my stomach is struggling. Look, I'll give you life One child and one daughter. The daughter was born half an hour earlier, she is an older sister...you, hug!"
"Okay, let me hug!" Qin Mubai's tears of excitement all came down, Qin's mother Liu and Shuang'er and others were even more excited, rushing to hug the child, and then each went to Mingzhu's couch. Comfort and wait for her.
"Mother, our Qin family has added another baby!" Qin Mubai happily hugged his two children, and said, "Just ask my mother to name the grandson!"
"Weiniang hasn't read any books, so I'm afraid it will be bad..." Liu's joy was also embarrassed. But Qin Mubai, Wu Meiniang and others insisted repeatedly. Liu thought for a while, and said: "Since the female baby is the elder sister and the male baby is the younger brother, how about Qin Si and Qin Nian?"
"Qin Si, Qin Nian... miss, miss, okay, okay!" Qin Mubai promised, holding the child in front of Mingzhu's bed, and said softly: "What do you think of Mingzhu?" /
"Everything is arranged by the mother-in-law... Sisi, Nian'er, it is indeed a very good name!"
Qin Mubai finally took a long breath, looked at the two children in his arms, and muttered to himself: "Sisi and Nian'er...Since then, we will never stop thinking of Datang and homeland! "
