After chatting with his father, Qin Mubai returned to his room to count some clothes, chatted with his mother and sister for a while, and then rode off the house.

It has been a few months since he came to Datang, and Qin Mubai has always felt very good about his current home. The rigorous style did not dilute the strong family affection, and the strict father and mother had the same deep affection for licking calves, but the way of expression was different. And as a concubine, he gets along well with his two brothers-in-law. There are no infighting and grievances in the mansion at all, harmonious and harmonious.

In addition, Qin Shubao and Liu looked exactly like their parents in their previous lives, Qin Mubai naturally recognized them as his biological father in his heart, without half a bit of reluctance and embarrassment, it was so natural.

The family affection that blood is thicker than water makes Qin Mubai full of attachment to this family. When facing other people outside, he may be an unruly disciple, a disrespectful gentleman, or a demon who has a bad stomach that people love and hate. However, it is only when you are in front of your family that you become simpler. It's the son, it's the younger brother, it's the elder brother – it's their loved ones, it's transparent and simple, that's it.

Home is like a warm harbor for a boat to rest.

When he rode back to the palace, Qin Mubai had a smile on his face, as if he was still reminiscing about the family affection he had just hastily eaten. He rode straight in from the Xuanwu Gate of Taiji Palace, but the pawn guarding the door stopped him: "General Qin, Your Majesty has a decree to order you to go to the Wude Hall of Taiji Palace to see you after returning to the camp." ”

"Got it, there's work." Qin Mubai sent the horse back to the stable of the Hundred Horsemen Camp, thinking in his heart: I just met in the morning, what will happen to this? This time, the place of the summons was also changed to the Wude Palace, the center of the court, instead of the Daming Palace, the emperor's harem, where the emperor rested, which can be seen to be a more formal summons...... What will happen?

With doubts, Qin Mubai came to the Wude Palace. After the transmission, he entered the main hall of the palace where the emperor received foreign ministers and envoys, and was led by the inner servants to the imperial study.

In the imperial study, in addition to Emperor Li Shimin, there were three other people, one of whom Qin Mubai knew—the eldest grandson.

He was standing on the side under the bookcase with his hands down, his head lowered, looking at Qin Mubai sideways, his eyes looked quite complicated, and there was no lack of resentment and hatred. And standing with him was a tall, slightly fat, forty-year-old man, wearing a standard purple official robe of a third-grade or higher officer, wearing an official hat, meticulous appearance, and a humble and low demeanor. Seeing Qin Mubai come in, he glanced at it with a soft expression, and his face was full of kindness.

At first glance, this is a very amiable and generous elder who does not feel the slightest pressure. But there may be a trace of essence in the middle of his eyes, and people dare not underestimate him. Although he was restrained and low-key enough, Qin Mubai faintly felt that this person had a hill in his chest, and he was by no means an ordinary fool. Especially the kind of eyes he looks at people are very soft, and people don't feel a trace of hostility, not at all like Qin Shubao's fierce and vicious eyes of a bloody warrior, but invisibly it will make people feel that they can't hide secrets in front of him.

That look is as soft as water, but it is pervasive. Inadvertently, see through others.

The other person was a fatter young man, standing opposite the eldest grandson. Hanging his hands, there is no special expression on his face, and he looks like a good boy who listens to the teachings. When Qin Mubai came in, the young man nodded and smiled at him, and then turned his head without squinting, and lowered his eyebrows at the emperor.

Li Shimin still smiled and didn't put on any royal dragon power, and after Qin Mubai saw the salute, he said like a homely person: "Mubai, I introduced you to two people - this one, but the father of the eldest grandson, Situ Changsun Wuji. ”

Qin Mubai's heart trembled lightly: This is the 'legendary' first minister of Zhenguan - the eldest grandson Wuji?

That's what it looks like!

The eldest grandson Wuji, that is Li Shimin's brother-in-law and the elder brother of the eldest grandson queen. In the early years, when Li Shimin first joined the army, he followed him all the way. plotted and planned to live and die together, and the personal relationship between him and Li Shimin was extremely thick, and he was even closer than his own brothers. Especially during the Xuanwumen Change, the eldest grandson Wuji was one of the main action planners, and it was under his strong request and instigation that Li Shimin finally decided to make the Xuanwumen Change.

Not to mention the other merits of following the emperor for more than 20 years, just the role played by the eldest grandson Wuji at the time of Xuanwumen was enough to make the emperor trust and gratitude to him 100% - that directly led to Li Shimin winning the world, what could be more important than this? So Li Shimin said that he was able to get the world, mostly because of the eldest grandson Wuji.

Of course, the reason why the eldest grandson Wuji became the first minister of Zhenguan was not only because of his personal relationship with the emperor and the Xuanwumen incident. In itself, the eldest grandson Wuji is indeed a knowledgeable and talented minister, and he is dedicated and loyal, especially in the study of the laws of all dynasties, which is a rare specialty.

It is not easy to be an emperor, and it is also impossible to find the assistance of good ministers. Often the capable are not faithful, and the faithful are not able to do it. A capable and loyal courtier like the eldest grandson Wuji is still a courtier of his relatives, where does Li Shimin have reason not to like it and not to use it?

So naturally, the eldest grandson Wuji was at the head of the ministers and became the first minister of Zhenguan.

"Humble Qin Mubai, I've seen the eldest grandson Situ!" Qin Mubai bowed his hand and did enough etiquette. The eldest grandson Wuji, who is one of the three princes, Situ, actually bent down and bowed back with the gift of his peers: "General Qin doesn't need to be polite. Everyone is in the same palace as ministers, and the king is here, no matter how big or small, we are all the same generation. ”

The speech is soft and modest, without half arrogance or superiority. This made Qin Mubai feel even more that this eldest grandson Wuji was really extraordinary!

Under one person, people above 10,000 people are still so low-key and cautious...... That can only prove that this person has cultivation, a city, knowledge, and ability.

After thinking about it again, the eldest grandson Wuji's father and son appeared here at the same time, and the emperor summoned me again, what can happen? Don't...... The eldest grandson asked his father so soon to come and clean me up?

"Auxiliary, if you have anything to say, you can say it to Qin Mubai in front of me!" Li Shimin spoke.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The eldest grandson Wuji respectfully saluted Li Shimin, turned around and arched his hand to Qin Mubai unequivocally, and said, "General Qin, the dog is stubborn, and he has caused trouble to General Qin." In the next place, Dai Dog Zi will pay compensation to General Qin! ”

"Isn't Situ going to torture his humble position?" Qin Mubai hurriedly returned the salute, slightly surprised in his heart: So that's the case! …… This eldest grandson Wuji may not be too fussful! Do you need to go to the emperor to solve the small contradiction between me and the eldest grandson?

Li Shimin smiled on the side: "Auxiliary, some little things, I said that there is no need to spend so much time." Young people, they are still enlisted soldiers, and their blood is just strong and brave, and some friction is inevitable. ”

"Your Majesty is very true." Eldest Sun Wuji said, "But if the dog and General Qin just cause contradictions and frictions in the ordinary army, even if they cripple each other, Weichen will definitely ignore it and let it fend for itself." When you are an adult, you have to have your own opinions and take responsibility for what you do. But now they are not in the ordinary army, they are in the hundred horses! Hundred horsemen, but the Imperial Guards responsible for protecting His Majesty! If the generals in the hundred horsemen are not in harmony and spend their minds on secretly competing with each other or even attacking and fighting, who will protect the safety of His Majesty? Therefore, Weichen thought that there was no room for impurities in the 100 cavalry army. The dog is not good, and he has been stubborn since childhood. As soon as he joined the army, he ignored military regulations and military laws and collided with his superiors, and his crime was unforgivable! - Rebel son, I have been talking for my father for a long time, but you are indifferent! ”

"Ahh The eldest grandson was so frightened that he was so frightened that he hurriedly walked out and knelt down on the emperor's knees: "Weichen should die, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji added fuel to the fire: "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to ask the dog to be removed from the hundred horses, so as not to bury hidden dangers and be detrimental to Your Majesty's future safety!" ”

"Auxiliary, you're making a big fuss, aren't you?" Li Shimin was still smiling and said, "No one is perfect, who can be without faults?" Especially young people, how can they grow up without making mistakes? Didn't you and I make a mistake when we were young, and didn't we just stumble over it? The eldest grandson is young and has shortcomings, but that is also his advantage. Knowing that mistakes can be changed, how good is great! ”

The eldest grandson is also a clever person, and at this time he hurriedly turned to Qin Mubai again, and bowed seriously: "General Qin, he violated military regulations and collided with the general, and repeatedly encouraged others to embarrass the general and slander the general, and today he will admit his mistake in front of the general and make amends." I hope that the general has a lot of them, don't worry about it anymore. ”

Qin Mubai's forehead couldn't help but drip a drop of sweat.

These people are really capable of acting...... It's like this, but it's like this? However, it can be seen that the eldest grandson Wuji is indeed a cautious and high-profile person. When his son made a mistake and suffered a loss, his first thought was to admit his mistake and eliminate the bad impression of the emperor and others on their eldest grandson's family.

Show people with humility, weakness, low-key and prudence, so that others will not be wary and do not hold grudges...... What a trick!

"When the eldest grandson says this, he is embarrassed!" Qin Mubai hurriedly replied, "I am also a newcomer to the official career, and I am very rusty with everything, coupled with my reckless and rude nature, if there is any unfair offense and collision, please also ask the eldest grandson Wan Wanhaihan!" ”

"Haha, see? What a nice two young men. Li Shimin laughed heartily.

So, the others also went down the slope and got down the donkeys. Qin Mubai and the eldest grandson looked at each other and smiled, as if they had become friends without fighting. The atmosphere in the room has also become much more soothing and relaxed.
