Qin Mubai went home, which made the family overjoyed and the whole family rejoiced. (Please remember me .)

Since the last time he returned to Beijing and left home after marrying Princess Gaoyang, Qin Mubai hadn't seen his mother and sister-in-law for several years. Too many things have happened in the past few years, Qin Shubao died, Qin Mubai died, and then the Western Regions of Tubo were destroyed......

Poor boundless river fixed bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream.

The men of the family marched outside to fight on the battlefield, and the most pitiful were the female dependents of the family.

Mother Liu and sister-in-law Qin Shuang'er received Qin Mubai, and cried with joy, hugged their heads and cried, but they couldn't persuade them. provoked Qin Mubai's children to cry with Wow, and after a while, they laughed again, and outsiders were puzzled when they heard it, and they thought what was wrong with the family.

Back home, Qin Mubai's heart seemed to have fallen to the ground, and he was a lot more down-to-earth. For the time being, he also left all the troubles of the outside world behind and enjoyed the joy of family.

The children who reunited after a long absence made Qin Mubai the most happy. When eating, he held Qin Ying and Qin Di left and right, and personally fed them both. The eldest daughter and Xiao'er were jealous and didn't do anything, but they also came to Qin Mubai's side and shouted to feed them, and the family was happy and happy.

What pleases Qin Mubai the most is Ashina? The blood lotus was given to Qin Mubai's second son. The little guy is probably because he has the dual bloodline of the Qin family's warriors and grassland boys, and he is quite strong, and his food is very much better than that of two or three children of the same age, and his crying voice is also loud and exaggerated.

Mother Liu said that there are many men in the family, and the word "blood" in the name of the blood lotus is unlucky, so it is better to call it "snow" lotus. Blood Lotus originally changed this word because she wanted to take revenge on her blood hatred. Now that the enemy is dead, she is happy to change back to her real name - Ashina? Saussurea.

And the son she gave to Qin Mubai had an agreement at first, to have the surname "Ashina". At first, Mrs. Liu was a little unhappy, after all, she was an elderly person, how could the heirs of the family follow her mother's surname? Qin Mubai did work to persuade his mother, saying that the Ashina lineage of the first nobleman of the grassland had been wiped out by Xue Yantuo, and Snow Lotus was also to do a little filial piety, so that the bloodline of the Ashina clan could continue. In the future, if the imperial court pardons, Xuelian will definitely be able to inherit the title of the Ashina family. In the end, it is natural that her son will have to inherit it.

This is not necessarily a bad thing.

Where did Mrs. Liu say Qin Mubai, she has always been tolerant and generous by nature, and she was very pitiful when she saw that Xuelian was alone and had no parents, so she agreed.

So, Qin Mubai's second son was named Ashina? Heirs. This is the name of the typical "Huahu combination", and the meaning is obvious. In addition, in order to make it easy for her grandson to grow up and suffer fewer disasters and diseases, Mrs. Liu gave him a nickname according to the ancient customs of the Central Plains, just called - little wolf, wolf!

The wolf is the totem of the Turks, and Snow Lotus is very satisfied with it. After living in this big family for so long, pregnant and having a child, she has gradually integrated into it and accepted so many relatives. Since then, she no longer feels lonely, but she misses her sister Xiyan who is still in the north.

Qin Mubai said that when Xue Rengui came back and finished dealing with the things in hand, he would let him go to the northern grassland to bring Xiyan back. When the time comes, the family will be reunited.

Although there were many troubles on the horizon of the big event, Qin Mubai was very calm, so he rested at home for three days without leaving home, ignoring state affairs and military affairs, and had a good rest. (Read and see update our speed first) after running back from a long journey to the west, he is like a battery that is about to run out of energy, and now it is full of power under the warmth of his family, and he is full of energy.

The celebration banquet arranged by Pang Fei will start in a few days, and Qin Mubai thought that he should also show his face and meet the officials of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the generals in the army. was about to go out to the yamen of the governor's mansion, but an uninvited guest came to the house.

The person who came claimed to be the housekeeper of Qin Tong's family, the son of the Qin family, surnamed Lu. Qin Mubai had also seen it when he went to the eldest brother's mansion, but he was not impressed. Liu and Shuang'er knew each other, saying that Steward Lu had been working in the eldest brother's mansion five or six years ago, specializing in matters such as renting land and tenants in Yongye Field under Qin Tong's name, and often dealing with tenants in the fields on the outskirts of Chang'an, and not often staying in the eldest brother's mansion. said that he has always been loyal and honest, and he is the most trusted person by Qin Tong.

Although Qin Mubai was not familiar with this Lu housekeeper, he didn't think much about it because of his mother and sister-in-law. He saw that this housekeeper Lu was in a hurry, as if he had fled, so he was a little worried about whether something happened to his eldest brother's family?

So, he called Steward Lu privately for questioning.

Steward Lu is nearly fifty years old and has a very old face, looking like an honest worker. Before Qin Mubai could ask, he fell to his knees and cried silently: "Third son, you must save the eldest son and the second son!" ”

Qin Mubai was taken aback, "What's the matter?" Let's take it into detail! ”

Steward Lu cried: "There are rumors in Chang'an, saying that the third prince is going to rebel. The eldest son and the second son are both loyal and righteous people, so in order to avoid the suspicion of the court and the family, they took the initiative to bind themselves to the palace to ask for guilt. Unexpectedly, the eldest grandson Wuji took advantage of the topic to play, and really detained the two sons secretly and put them in prison! That's not all, they also didn't let go of the two sons, the whole family, the old and the young, and the servants, and they all arrested them and put them in prison! ”

"What?!" Qin Mubai was furious and shot the case, "Such a bastard?!" ”

"Three sons, help!" Steward Lu cried and begged, "If it weren't for the little old man who went to the suburbs to collect rent, I'm afraid he would have been detained together!" …… At this time, the two sons are in danger, and they are anxious to see the third son go to the rescue! ”

Qin Mubai filled his chest with anger and clenched his fists to the bone, gritted his teeth and roared: "Eldest grandson Wuji, I swear to stand with you!" ”

A fist slammed into the table, the teacups burst and water flowed all over the ground, and the sturdy mahogany table was smashed to the point of bursting!

"Three sons, help, help!" Steward Lu only cared about kowtowing and crying on the ground.

Qin Mubai glanced at Steward Lu out of the corner of his eyes, helped him up from the ground, and said to him: "I have my own opinions on this matter, you have worked hard all the way, go down first and rest." Remember, this is not to be said to anyone, including my mother and sister-in-law. ”

"Yes, yes, the little old man will keep his mouth shut. I just hope that the third son will make a plan as soon as possible and save the two sons! ”

"Go down!"

Steward Lu retreated, but Qin Mubai, who was still angry, suddenly became unusually calm, he closed the door, straightened the crooked table, picked up the teacup on the ground and put it away, added new tea with a new cup, and then sat quietly and meditated alone.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, it was Chen Yan.

Qin Mubai's heart moved, "Come in!" ”

Chen Yan came in and closed the door reflexively. glanced left and right, saw that the things on the table were neatly arranged, and said with a smile; "Something you fell and got back on your own?"

"Scaring you?" Qin Mubai smiled.

"Not really." Chen Yan walked over and sat down beside him, poured tea on him, and said, "Just now, your voice roared angrily, as if you were about to kill someone, and you can hear it from a few rooms away." The children were frightened and cried, and the old lady was also frightened, and sent me to ask you what is the matter?

"It's fine." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "I heard some rumors about Chang'an. ”

"Does it have anything to do with your big brother?" Chen Yan asked, "I heard the words 'eldest grandson Wuji', could it be that what happened to your eldest brother by eldest grandson Wuji?" ”

"That's what it sounds like." The corners of Qin Mubai's mouth twitched slightly, and said, "Steward Lu told me that the eldest grandson Wuji has arrested my eldest brother and second brother's family. ”

"Why?"

"Of course, it's to take them hostage to prevent me from rebelling."

"Do you believe it?"

"If I had believed, I would not have been angry." Qin Mubai said with a smile, "Such a stupid thing is not something that Eldest Sun Wuji can do. ”

Chen Yan smiled, "I knew that you wouldn't make such a big fire at home for no reason and scare your family." You deliberately got angry and showed it to Steward Naru? ”

"That's right." Qin Mubai's eyebrows sank, and he said, "How can it be possible to touch my Qin's true anger just by the words of an insignificant puppet?" After all, I don't trust this Lu steward at all! ”

"But the old lady and Shuang'er both said that he is indeed the housekeeper of the eldest brother's family?" "And he doesn't look like a cunning person. “

"So what?" Qin Mubai smiled coldly, "Such a subordinate is too easy to be bribed or apostasy, or too easy to be deceived!" ”

"You mean, it's possible that Steward Lu himself has been deceived?" Chen Yan wondered.

"Yes." Qin Mubai nodded, "If it weren't for the fear of wronging the innocent at this level, I would have taken him down and brought him to justice just now!" ”

"You didn't take him, but you also wanted to capture him?" Chen Yan smiled, "If he is bribed, then you just do it." ”

"Clever!" Qin Mubai smiled, "Yan, you still know me!" - No matter who is behind the scenes, his trick is not very good. Their intention is too obvious, that is, to force me to rebel and let me fight to the death with the eldest grandson Wuji. In fact, although the eldest grandson Wuji is not at odds with me, he is not stupid. Although he strongly opposes the establishment of King Wu as the crown prince, he also has his political bottom line, that is, the Tang Dynasty cannot be chaotic, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the emperor and the people of the world. Now I haven't done anything different, if he takes the whole family of my two brothers first, it will be to frame the minister to confuse the dynasty, and the autocratic power to bring disaster to the country and the public for personal vendettas, wouldn't it just give me an excuse to raise the army and the king's 'Qingjun side'? In this way, he will become the source of evil in the turmoil of the world, and he will be the target of public criticism. Such a stupid thing, the eldest grandson Wuji would not do it! ”

"Hearing you say this, it reminds me of the old allusion that 'sandpipers and mussels compete, and fishermen profit'." Chen Yan said, "If you really plan to fight between King Bingqin and the eldest grandson Wuji, then who will benefit?" ”

"It's not clear yet." Qin Mubai shook his head with a glint in his eyes, "But I guess it's very likely that it is the one who ambushed King Wu halfway!" ”

Chen Yan frowned, "Isn't that the hand of the eldest grandson Wuji and the King of Wei against the King of Wu?" ”

"I dare assert, no." Qin Mubai shook his head affirmatively, "Although the two of them are the most jealous of King Wu, they also happen to be the least daring to act rashly like this." Because as long as something happens to King Wu, even the children in the market can think that it is the black hand of the two of them, is this different from covering his ears and stealing the bell? The eldest grandson, Wuji, and King Wei would not do such a stupid thing. At the same time, it is precisely because of this reason that if there is a third party who wants to blame the eldest grandson Wuji and King Wei, there will be a full motive! ”

Chen Yan suddenly realized, "No wonder you said that the black hand behind Steward Lu is the same person who ambushed King Wu!" He first blamed the King of Wei and the eldest grandson Wuji, and then instigated you to go to war with them. Both things have the same purpose, that is, you snipe and clam fight! ”

The corners of Qin Mubai's mouth twitched, and he smiled meaningfully, "If it is not expected, the eldest grandson Wuji will not only not act rashly against my two eldest brothers, but will also try his best to stabilize them and protect them." I, Qin, someone, how could I be confused by the fallacy and fall for such a low-level scheme? It's a pity that Mr. Black Hand seriously underestimated the IQ of me and the eldest grandson Wuji and others. He probably thought that everyone in this world was as simple-minded as he was! ”

Chen Yan shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly, "Yes, you and the eldest grandson Wuji have already cultivated into goblins, and they are invincible!" …… You people, hey! Fighting for power all day long, are you tired or not? ”

"Tired, really tired." Qin Mubai let out a long sigh and said, "Yan, when the current matter is dealt with, I will retire." ”

Chen Yan's expression changed slightly, a trace of joy jumped on her eyebrows, and she smiled, "Comfort me?" ”

"It's not." Qin Mubai held his hand and said, "Do you remember what I once told you?" One day, I, Qin Mubai, will return to the original point and be myself. At that time, our family can truly enjoy and be carefree. Yeon, for so many years, only you have been following me without regrets. Whether it's a storm or a husband and children, you are standing silently behind me; No matter what I do, you never complain at all, you will only silently support me, help me, and pay for me without reservation. I am grateful to you, but I am also guilty. In my pursuit of fame and fortune, I neglected many of the most important things in my life. Now, I've finally realized that I've decided to get back to basics! And you're still by my side...... That's nice! ”

Chen Yan smiled, nodded slightly, withdrew her hand and got up and walked out, "I'm going to call back to the old lady." In order to keep her worried, I'll say something else. You also remember to keep your tone up and don't scare your family. ”

"Still called the old lady?" After Qin Mubai said this, he immediately woke up to himself-it turns out that I have never had a wedding with Chen Yan!

I was ashamed!

"Yan, a few days later, the Governor's Mansion will hold a celebration banquet, and it will definitely be full of guests and friends, I want to ......" Qin Mubai hesitated for a moment, acting like a shy little boy in front of Chen Yan for the first time, and scratched his cheeks and smiled, "I think, you marry me!" How about we have our wedding ceremony on that day? ”

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked back and smiled, "Stupid!" ”
