Princess Gaoyang blinked blankly and said, "Third brother, Mu Bai, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing, can you make it clear?" ”

"Little sister, didn't you just say that you wanted to go to Keju? Why don't you go and prepare first, I'll talk to Mu Bai about something, and I'll come later. Li Ke said.

"Oh...... And you guys are 'men's big things', right? I didn't bother to listen to it, I had a headache. Princess Gaoyang got up and walked out, repeatedly whispering as she walked, "Mu Bai, don't go, don't sneak away!" Otherwise, I'll go to your house and get you!" ”

"No, it won't." Qin Mubai smiled.

Princess Gaoyang left, Li Ke shook his head and said, "This girl, why is she so obsessed with you?" ”

"Your Highness, let's get down to business!" Qin Mubai said with a smile.

"Well...... Li Ke nodded and said, "Actually, I have been thinking about it on the way back from Jiangzhou with my little sister." Paper can't contain fire, and the father will know about you and your little sister after all. In this way, you, the hundred horsemen, can be regarded as the first to do it, and it is not appropriate to stay in the palace anymore. So once when I had a private chat with my father, I took the initiative to say that I wanted to hire you to go to Xiangzhou with me and serve as my left and right deputies to govern the place together. Not surprisingly, my father readily agreed. ”

Qin Mubai frowned in surprise: "You took the initiative to make this request to the emperor?" ”

"Yes." Li Ke said, "Actually, I was also half tempted at the time, but my father agreed so simply. Hypothetically, if it was before, I would definitely not dare to open my mouth, and even if I did, my father would definitely not agree. Hundred Cavalry Envoys, that is not an ordinary position, not something that can be replaced by a random person. A few months after we left Jiangzhou, my father asked Li Junxian to take over the hundred horses, and he operated for a long time, which also laid the groundwork for this move early. You should know this, right? ”

"I know." Qin Mubai nodded, "There are early signs of things, so I don't feel strange, and I don't have anything to be reluctant to." It's good to leave Chang'an now, and I'm quite happy to go to Xiangzhou with you. ”

"Since you have answered, then I will enter the palace tomorrow to formally make a request to my father." Li Ke said, "My father also knows that there is a shortage of major generals in my palace, especially the lack of unique generals. went to Xiangzhou to serve as an assassin, and there must be a person who can govern the army and lead the army as an assistant. When he arrived at the place, he was to stab the history of the people's livelihood and manage the military affairs. The two complement each other. I'm going to ask my father to give him the title of Lieutenant of your Xiangzhou Mansion, I don't know what you think? ”

At the end, Li Ke added: "Xiangzhou is the Shangzhou Shangfu, and the official residence of the commander of the capital is the fourth rank, which is slightly higher than your current rank." ”

"It doesn't matter what the rank is." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Okay! If the emperor agrees, I would be happy to be the captain of this fold! ”

"Huh!" Li Ke smiled, "Don't underestimate this Lieutenant." Xiangzhou used to be the capital governor's mansion, Zhenguan was changed to Shangzhou during the reign of Shangzhou, under the jurisdiction of seven counties of more than 50,000 people, a radius of thousands of miles, this side of the border of the soldiers and horses are all under your command. Although the perennial military establishment of Xiangzhou Mansion is only more than 2,000 people, the power in your hands is not small, at least much more than this hundred cavalry envoys! ”

"I know that." Qin Mubai smiled and nodded, thinking in his heart: To put it more clearly, isn't he just an earth overlord? The government military system implemented by the Tang Dynasty is equivalent to a military sub-district in many prefectures. And the commander of the Zhichong Commander is equivalent to the commander of the military division.

In this way, I am as old as my father in my previous life! And in that place in Xiangzhou, the emperor of the mountain is far away and can toss as much as he likes, which is better than doing something casually in the capital, just staring at thousands of pairs of eyes, how tired!

Well, Earth Overlord, a promising career!

Immediately, Li Ke took the four brushes of the study and played them on the table. After writing it, he also asked Qin Mubai to take a closer look, and only after discussing it could he be relieved. The two of them arrived in the back garden and played Keju with Princess Gaoyang.

Princess Gaoyang is happy. It's been a few days since I left the palace, and I thought that I could be with Qin Mubai every day in the twilight, but it was difficult to get my wish if I didn't think about it. Today, I finally had the opportunity to play with him, Princess Gaoyang felt like a child celebrating the New Year, and her mood was quite refreshing.

After playing for a while, Princess Gaoyang was already drenched in sweat, but she was still happily shouting to continue. On a whim, she kicked the ball far away, then clapped her hands and giggled: "I won, I won!" Look, I'm kicking high and far! ”

The ball landed on the round arch in the backyard, and the maid was about to run over to pick it up, but unexpectedly, a man walked in from the round arch, picked up the ball, and laughed and walked over.

"Huh, who?" Princess Gao Yang blinked in confusion, "It's so familiar!"

"King Jiangxia!"

"Uncle Huang?!"

Li Ke and Qin Mubai shouted out.

"Wow, it's Uncle Jiangxia? I haven't seen you for a few years, and I almost don't recognize ......," Princess Gao Yang said in a low voice.

Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, was dressed in a purple-collared and golden robe, wearing a golden cicada and three beams to enter the virtuous crown, wearing a long sword and hanging jade, holding the ball in his hand, and walking over with a smile: "Xingtou is good!" Gaoyang little girl, I don't come to be coquettish when I see my uncle, haven't I seen you for a few years, and you don't know me? ”

"Wow, it's really Uncle Huang! Hee-hee! Princess Gao Yang ran over with a smile on her face, jumped up and grabbed the ball from his hand. Li Daozong raised his hand and raised the ball high to prevent it from her, and laughed, "If you don't call me obediently, I won't pay you back!" ”

"Hey, hey, hey!" Princess Gao Yang suddenly laughed evilly, and stretched out and scratched Li Daozong's waist and ribs. Li Daozong laughed and dodged, threw the ball to Princess Gaoyang, and scolded with a smile, "You ghost girl, it's really not big or small!" When you meet, you don't say hello and tickle me! ”

Li Ke and Qin Mubai both laughed. Princess Gaoyang took back the ball and said with a triumphant smile: "Haha, I'm afraid few people in this world know that the dignified Generalissimo Jiangxia is most afraid of tickling!" ”

"Okay, Gao Yang has to be polite." Li Ke smiled and stepped forward to pay homage with Qin Mubai.

"Well, there's no need to be polite, it's just a normal walk. It's such a coincidence, Mu Bai is also there! Li Daozong nodded at him with a smile.

"When the prince arrives in the capital, he doesn't know in advance, and he can greet him next." Qin Mubai said.

"Just arrived." Li Daozong said, "This king is an impatient, and he can't follow the slow drive, so he rode into the capital first. The family is still behind. After having nothing to do for a while, I walked to King Wu's mansion unconsciously, so I came in to have a look. I heard that you were juju, so I didn't invite you! ”

Li Ke said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that Uncle Huang's kung fu is rare in the world, why don't you show your hand today and let me wait to open my eyes?" ”

"No, no, no." Li Daozong waved his hand with a smile, "After riding a horse for a day, my legs are a little numb." Why don't you arrange a banquet soon, but when? ”

"Haha, it's the little nephew who is rude! Uncle Huang, please! Li Ke laughed and invited Li Daozong to go to the banquet with Qin Mubai and Princess Gaoyang.

Princess Gaoyang naturally grabbed Qin Mubai's elbow, and said with a smile while playing with the ball: "Among so many imperial uncles, I like King Jiangxia the most!" This little old man is the most interesting! ”

"Huh?" Li Daozong was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Haha! Gao Yang, am I old? I seem to be a year or two younger than your father! ”

"Hmph, that's it! You're a little old man! Princess Gao Yang snorted unconvinced.

"Okay, don't be rude to the prince." Qin Mubai said.

Princess Gaoyang stuck out her tongue at Li Daozong and grimaced, smiling and laughing silently.

"So good-behaved? Mu Bai, you have a good job, you have cleaned up this little fierce horse, haha! Li Daozong laughed loudly.

"Nasty! You're the horse! Princess Gao Yang blushed and hurriedly let go of her hand.

"Haha, Uncle Huang, why do you have to fight like this when you meet Gao Yang, and it's the same as a few years ago?" Li Ke smiled, "Hurry up and invite the main hall to serve tea!" ”

"Okay, let's go!" Li Daozong waved his hand and strode forward.

"Hey, hey!" Princess Gaoyang laughed in a low voice, "Mu Bai, the king of Jiangxia is very good, and his temper is very good. No matter how much I tease him to provoke him, he is not annoyed. It's so much more interesting than my father! ”

"You deceitful and fearful of evil!"

"Hmph - scold me, ignore you!" Princess Gaoyang stuck out her tongue again and grimaced, and ran forward with a jump.

Qin Mubai shook his head and smiled, this girl is really easy to be happy, and it is still the nature of a child.

Soon after, a banquet was set up in the palace of King Wu, and the four of them sat down and had a feast.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Daozong laughed heartily and said, "It's really good!" Chang'an still gives me such a cordial feeling! This time I left Jinju and returned to Chang'an to retire for leisure, I want to enjoy it. Li Ke, Qin Mubai, the two of you will take turns to invite this king to dinner! This king must appreciate his face! ”

"Giggles, Uncle Huang, you are so thick-skinned!" Princess Gao Yang smiled, "How can you force people to invite you to dinner like this?" ”

"Haha! I don't know how many people there are in this Chang'an, crying and begging to invite me to dinner, but I still refuse to pay attention to it! Li Daozong smiled, "You little fart, what do you know!" ”

"What? I, my little girl? Princess Gaoyang suddenly became anxious and shouted, "I'm an adult!" I, I'm going to ......"

"What do you want? Are you going to get married? Li Daozong said with a smile, "Look at your stunned little appearance, you are still a child, is it possible that you can also be a wife and a mother?" ”

"Uh......h I'm! Princess Gao Yang was ashamed and annoyed, and her face turned red.

The crowd burst into laughter, and Princess Gaoyang was even more embarrassed, pulling Qin Mubai's sleeve on the side and begging for help: "Mubai, you just watched Uncle Huang bully me, can you help me say something?" ”

Qin Mubai smiled: "How can you help?" I can't beat him, I can't talk about him, I can't even drink. ”

"Woo...... Ignore you! Together, bully me! Princess Gaoyang snorted and chirped for a while, buried her head in eating, and really ignored the three men.

"This little girl is still a child's heart, the same as a few years ago!" Li Daozong laughed a few times and said, "You all come to my house tomorrow for a small gathering!" ”

"Uncle Huang has an order, don't dare to disobey." Li Ke agreed loudly, and Qin Mubai naturally had no other opinions.

Li Daozong looked at Qin Mubai again and asked, "Mubai, has Li Jing accepted you as an apprentice?" ”

"Nope." Qin Mubai said, "But he gave me a book of soldiers. ”

Li Ke was shocked: "There are still such things? ”

"Well, I haven't had time to tell you about the events of today and yesterday." Qin Mubai said, "The emperor asked me if I was willing to worship Li Jing as a teacher, and he was willing to recommend him, of course I was willing." So I asked my father to visit the Wei Mansion together, but he did not agree to accept me as an apprentice, and only passed on half of the "Jade Tent Sutra". ”

"Jade Tent?" Li Daozong raised his eyebrows in surprise, "The old beard is really generous this time!" I have long heard that in the past few years, he has been writing a military book, which collects the essence of his life's work as a soldier. When his disciple Hou Junji heard about it, he took the initiative to ask him for this military book, but he also refused. Unexpectedly, this time it was passed on to you so generously! ”

"And this kind of thing? I didn't know ...... before," Qin Mubai said in surprise.

"Hehe, the old beard is as deep as the sea, and there is a tacit understanding between him and the emperor, and there must be a reason for what he does." Li Daozong said, "Since you have obtained such a treasure, let's study it and strive for improvement!" ”

"That's nature."

Li Daozong looked at Qin Mubai with deep meaning and smiled, and said seriously as if he was joking: "Qin Mubai, you really have a bright future!" ”

"Uh...... Where do you start? Qin Mubai asked.

"Haha, we'll see it in the future, so why do you need to break it now?" Li Daozong laughed and said, "Come on, come on, have a good drink!" Today I only talk about private matters, not about national politics! ”

……

After the banquet was over, Li Daozong, who was seven or eight points drunk, stayed in King Wu's mansion to rest. It was getting late, and Qin Mubai was about to leave.

Princess Gaoyang reluctantly grabbed his robe and refused to let go, and hummed with a sad face: "I've only been here for a while, and I'm going to leave again." You won't stay with me. ”

Qin Mubai said with a smile: "So many people are looking at it, they are not ashamed, let go." I've been busy these days, so I'll come back to see you tomorrow. ”

"Or, you clean up your house and get me a room, hehe!" Princess Gao Yang smiled, "In that case, it will be easy for me to see you." ”

Cohabit?

This word instantly popped up in Qin Mubai's mind, and he immediately smiled: "Don't be stupid." You haven't married me yet, so you live in my house and let your father or outsiders know, what do you think? Live honestly in your third brother's mansion, if I have time, I will accompany you more. ”

"Where did you think you went...... Princess Gao Yang's face turned a little red with shame, and she said in a snort, "Then will you take me hunting tomorrow?" I've heard...... You've taken Mei Niang to hunt, but you just don't take me there, hum! ”

Qin Mubai shook his head with a wry smile: "Okay, I'll take you there tomorrow." I didn't expect you to be very jealous, and you are also very well-informed! ”

"Hmph, if people don't know, unless they don't do it!" Princess Gao Yang said angrily, "I know a lot! ”

"Isn't it your third brother who betrayed his friends to seek glory? That's it, I'm convinced of your brother and sister. Qin Mubai smiled helplessly, "Okay, don't make it look like life and death, I'll come over to accompany you tomorrow when I'm free and take you to hunting, OK?" ”

"Oh Keyi?" Princess Gao Yang blinked blankly, "What do you mean?" ”

"Uh, this ......" Qin Mubai lost his mouth for a while, and couldn't help but smile as well, "It means 'good', 'okay', and 'can'." ”

"Then 'Oh Keyi' is 'Oh Keyi'!" Princess Gao Yang giggled and said, "What kind of nonsense is this, it's really funny!" Okay, go ahead, I'll be waiting for you in the house tomorrow! I have so much to say to you, so many things to ask you! ”

"Got it! Mother-in-law at a young age. Qin Mubai smiled and waved his hand, "I'm leaving!" ”

"I want to, huh!" Princess Gao Yang curled her lips and raised her face, "I will be more mother-in-law in the future, you are not allowed to annoy me, I am not allowed to hate me, what I do is right, you have to love me, love me, cherish me, don't make me sad, don't make me cry, don't leave me, don't want me, don't ......"

"I'm afraid of you! ...... "Qin Mubai almost ran away.

"Thief Military Academy, stinky man, running faster than a rabbit, hehe!" Princess Gaoyang looked at Qin Mubai's background, smiling beautifully, and her face was full of the unique warm taste of a little woman.

"I can't stand you two!" Li Ke, who had been watching for a while, shook his head and left with a long sigh.

"You're jealous! Eat one's heart out! Ha ha! Princess Gao Yang laughed loudly and walked briskly towards the room humming a song.

When I returned home, I found that my family had finished dinner, and Wu Meiniang had already left. Qin Shuang'er also complained a few words, indicating that she knew that Mei Niang was at home, and Qin Mubai came back so late.

Qin Shubao called Qin Mubai and said to him: "King Jiangxia came to visit, looking at the situation, it seems that he is looking for you." ”

"Well, the child has already seen him in King Wu's mansion." Qin Mubai said, "I went to see King Wu and explained to him that I wanted to go out and become an official. ”

"What does he say?" Qin Shubao asked.

He answered. Qin Mubai didn't want to have too many twists and turns with his father, so he replied simply, "He has prepared to play on the table, please ask His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Qin Shubao nodded silently, stroked his gray beard, and said, "It seems that the movement you have made in the Jiangzhou area is not small, and even Li Daozong has resigned and retired. The twists and turns in this must be extraordinary. Since you have already committed some taboos, it is okay to leave Chang'an for a while. It's just that...... Why do you have to be so close to Li Ke? ”

Qin Mubai thought for a while and said, "Dad, the child thinks that Li Ke is nothing wrong. Moreover, I am only complementary to him, and I am not attached to him. ”

"It's easy to say. If you think so, others don't see it that way. Qin Shubao sighed lightly and said, "Li Ke is very good, capable, intelligent, talented and ambitious, and he is the most outstanding among all the emperor's princes. But he ...... That's it, let's not talk about it. It's a cliché. It's good that you have a sense of proportion in mind. Now that you've made your decision, you're responsible for your own decision in the future. ”

"I will." Qin Mubai nodded solemnly.

"Besides......" Qin Shubao hesitated for a moment, as if he was a little embarrassed to speak, but still said, "Before you leave, let's see if you can find a way to help me find an errand with the help of some ways?" ”

"Uh, this ......" Qin Mubai almost didn't react for a while, was stunned for a moment, and nodded: "The child will definitely do his best!" ”

Daddy asked me to help him...... Looking for a job?

This is really something I didn't expect!
