The two hundred and thirty-fifth round

Qin Yingdan woke up with a splitting headache, which shows that the wine in the north is indeed full of stamina.

He blinked twice and saw a figure beside his couch. She asked the boy surnamed Cui what time it was.

He looked away from her unnaturally and deliberately avoided her gaze, saying that it was a moment.

Qin Ying didn't pay attention to the subtleties of the other party, she moved her hands and feet, which were a little numb from sleep, sighed and sat up straight with the mattress on the edge of the couch, knotted her robe and the belt on the side, and prepared to go out of the wing room to breathe.

The young man surnamed Cui asked in a muffled voice when she opened the door, is the wound still painful?

She paused with her hand holding the door frame and said to him, "It didn't hurt in the first place." She wasn't lying. Except for the burning pain in the lower back after the initial injury, I didn't feel it anymore. She thought that the piece of meat on the back of the waist had been completely taken away.

He felt better after hearing this, and walked around the courtyard with Qin Ying.

Here, Qin Ying leisurely stood up and admired the flowers, and the lord of Goguryeo over there discussed with his ministers at the court meeting whether to obey the requirements of the Li Tang delegation.

Some humanists are obedient to Li Tang now, and they will succumb to him in the future.

Others are now sending the corpses of the former soldiers back to the Central Plains, that is, to make friends with Li Tang, and the two countries will not exchange troops in a short time.

Everyone insisted on their own words, and in the end, the lord of the country slapped the table and said, the corpse mountain and bone mound on the bank of the Yalu River are not gold and silver treasures, what is there to give to Li Tang!

Since the lord of the country has rarely expressed his attitude, it is difficult for others to say anything.

The courtiers seconded the discussion, and even called His Majesty Shengming, and revealed the matter without a trace.

In the next two days, the Li Tang delegation was given a grand hospitality. I don't know if Qin Ying's words set the target away, or if the lord himself has an awareness that Li Tang can't provoke.

At the same time, the corpse mounds on the banks of the Yalu River moved at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The ten ships that Li Tang sailed into the Yalu River were all loaded with the corpses that had already decomposed.

Three days later, in the morning, Qin Ying and other envoys rushed to the dock with a handwritten letter from the lord of the country, boarded the ship and left Goguryeo.

Qin Ying thought that he was on the same boat with the corpses of the soldiers of the previous dynasty, and his stomach couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. She drank three bowls of strong tea with a tea cup, but she still couldn't suppress the nausea surging in her chest, so she hung her head and looked sluggish.

Seeing this, the young man surnamed Cui said, you know that you can't see or smell, and you still want to stick a stick in Youzhou, is it difficult for yourself?

She covered her face with her sleeve and shook her other hand weakly, telling him not to dismantle his own table again.

It was easy to endure an hour and a half, and the first thing Qin Ying did when he got off the boat was to pull his feet and flee forward. Sitting in the carriage that had been prepared by the river for a long time, she was finally able to breathe freely and freely, and her pale face gradually calmed down.

At this time, she shook the plain silk folding fan, made the style of a scholar, and raised the corners of her mouth at the young man surnamed Cui, answering the question he asked a long time ago: People outside the square have the world in their hearts. Pedestrians can't do it.

The young man surnamed Cui snorted, disdainful of her boasting.

Qin Ying touched his nose and said with a smile, this is a good thing. How could she cringe at the discomfort of her senses?

It's an exaggeration to say that it's a book of Wanli, but it's not far off.

On her way to Silla, she dispelled the restless thoughts of the Goguryeo lord and retrieved the corpses of the former soldiers. This merit is enough for her to truly obtain an official position above the ninth grade.

The young man surnamed Cui saw that Qin Ying finally tore off her disguise and revealed her true temperament, and his speech was not so-for-tat. He said, "Haven't you outsiders always been quiet and inactive and have no quarrel with the world, why are you competing for fame and fortune?

She raised her eyebrows and didn't answer for a while, pretending to play with the mystery deeply, before laughing and saying, what people outside the square are actually asking for is doing nothing and doing nothing.

He shook his head and said that he really didn't understand, so he listened to Qin Ying say triumphantly, when do you think I took the initiative to find something to do? Every time we encounter something, create opportunities, take advantage of the trend, and solve contradictions. This way of being a man is much more difficult than the way of being an official, and it's still too late for you to follow me to learn now.

He felt that Qin Ying was bragging, but when he thought about their experiences along the way, it seemed to fit quite well with what she said.

Qin Ying saw the embarrassed look on his face, and deliberately teased him, Do you want to worship me as a teacher? Now I don't need money to collect apprentices, and when I go back to Chang'an, my worth has skyrocketed overnight, and you probably can't climb high.

After all, the young man surnamed Cui was young and vigorous, and he temporarily forgot about the injury on her lower back, and got into trouble with Qin Ying. He reached out to scoop her dough, trying to pull it to see how thick it was.

Qin Ying couldn't dodge, and he slapped his cheek all of a sudden, and a bright blush rose.

……

It was summer, and the smell of the corpse hill was so strong that it was not a long-term way to rest on the boat.

Qin Ying entrusted Gu Beijiang to send a letter to Chang'an, saying that he would return to the court with the corpses of the soldiers of the previous dynasty. In the afternoon she watched as the wooden boxes containing the corpses were carried onto the wagon, and after a night's rest, she followed the convoy escorting the corpses home.

In order not to let the corpses of the former dynasty alarm the residents along the way, the convoy bypassed the large and small counties, and after more than ten years of day and night, it finally parked at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, a few miles outside Chang'an City.

The place where the corpses were buried was Qin Ying. Feng Shui is not the best, but it is better to be stable and safe. The corpses of hundreds of thousands of former soldiers have been deliberately exposed for many years, and it is inevitable that they will be resentful, and Zhongnanshan is a practice center for Buddhism and Taoism, and it is not a problem to suppress the grievances for half a month.

It is useless to suppress it alone, and if the resentment turns into a wise evil creature in the future, it will cause disaster in all directions.

Qin Ying thought of this, and before he had settled outside the city for the night, he went to face the saint in the brilliant light of the setting sun.

Li Shimin had just finished dinner, and hurriedly went to the imperial study to see Qin Ying, and heard her talk about the corpse mountain bone mound on the bank of the Yalu River, and felt that the delicacies were about to vomit out of his throat.

Waving his hand to make her describe it in moderation, he forced a calm face and said, What do you want to do, you might as well tell me.

Li Shimin thought that she was here to ask for merit, so he made quite comprehensive psychological preparations, but he was still startled when she opened her mouth.

Qin Ying knelt down and bowed, hoping that the Ministry of Rites would come forward to overtake these hundreds of thousands of former dynasty souls, otherwise their resentment would definitely become a problem for Li Tang.

Li Shimin looked at Qin Ying for a moment before nodding, not saying whether it was okay or not, he wrote two strokes on a blank silk, and finally said to her, You go to rest first, and tomorrow morning the court will give you a chance to play. There was some admiration in his tone.

Qin Ying hesitated and said that tomorrow is not the New Year's Day, and according to the rules, she will not be able to enter the early dynasty.

His eyebrows softened for a moment, and he said You have been sealed again and again, if you can't enter the daily court meeting again, won't those official titles be sealed for nothing? (To be continued.) )
