Chapter 172: Chang'an Holiday
After talking to Li Shimin, Qin Mubai also specially accompanied Li Zhi and Li Mingda to play in the back garden for a while. I haven't seen each other for a long time, and the two little princes are very affectionate to him, and their excitement is beyond words. Li Shimin happily watched them play together on the sidelines, and claimed that he was going to be a little jealous, and the relationship between Qin Mubai and them was too harmonious and intimate.
Before leaving, Qin Mubai promised them that if he had free time, he would come to the palace to play with them. Li Shimin also said that Qin Mubai was busy with business for a long time before coming back, and he had to go home to rest for a few days. He also promised the Li Zhi brothers and sisters that he, the emperor, would also visit the Qin family if he had free time, and he would definitely take them with him.
The two little princes were satisfied.
When he left the palace, Qin Mubai was almost whistling, and his mood was extremely relaxed and happy. In the past few months, the big and small turmoil and troubles have never stopped, and now they are finally light. After dealing with the affairs of Jiangzhou, Princess Gaoyang's side is also temporarily relieved, and Qin Mubai can really enjoy his vacation.
At this time, it was almost dusk, Qin Mubai went to the Hundred Cavalry Barracks, informed Li Junxian and others, took a salute, rode a BMW, and went home.
Thinking of his parents' little sister and his own mansion given by the emperor that he hadn't had time to live in for one night, Qin Mubai's heart suddenly rose with joy. There are also the demons and orphans who borrowed into the Qin family, the first wine in the world, Wu Meiniang, who also returned to Chang'an, and Princess Gaoyang, who couldn't tell herself...... I'm afraid I'm going to spend this vacation with these people.
Qin Mubai, who passed through his own mansion, did not enter the door, but went straight to the Qin mansion. When the sun set and the lights were on, the servants of the Qin family were sweeping the courtyard, and a group of little girls were chasing and playing back and forth in the courtyard, which was peaceful and warm.
As soon as Qin Mubai stepped into the courtyard, a sharp-eyed servant shouted in surprise: "Childe! The third son is back!! Master, Mrs., the fourth lady, and the third son are back!! ”
When this shout came down, the people in the courtyard were alarmed. The group of little girls who were playing in the courtyard also knew Qin Mubai, and they all rushed forward to hug him with a smile, chattering and laughing non-stop. After dinner, Qin Shubao and his wife, who were drinking tea and resting in the banquet hall, and the fourth sister Qin Shuang'er, all walked out and were pleasantly surprised.
Qin Mubai hurriedly stepped forward to salute his parents, and the family was happy.
There is no demon in the house, and if she wants to come to this time, she should go to the world's first wine to perform and make a living.
"San Lang, I've been in this other house for a few months, and I'm finally back, are you still used to it outside? Have you lost weight? Mother Liu pulled Qin Mubai to ask for warmth with a long and short sentence, and others couldn't interject.
After a while, the excitement finally stopped. Liu and Shuang'er went to clean up Qin Mubai's bedroom and prepare some snacks for the night. The father and son sat opposite each other in the study, chatting as usual.
"San Lang, originally there was a big incident related to you in Chang'an, and I was worried that you would be affected for my father. Now it seems that you should be safe and sound, and you will be rewarded. Qin Shubao sighed and said lightly, "Your kid is growing up now, and you can also stir up the marriage given by the emperor, it's really bold!" ”
"Hehe, my father blamed me." Qin Mubai smiled, "From beginning to end, I have never seduced Princess Gaoyang, it is ...... herself."
"Holy! The man's husband should be a little responsible. Now that the matter has come to this, how can you shirk responsibility? Qin Shubao seemed to be angry and laughed, and said, "Sai Weng lost his horse, and he knew that it was not a disaster. ”
Qin Mubai's heart lit up slightly, and he said, "Father, is it difficult that His Majesty the Emperor has already told you?" ”
"Say what? What is there to say? Qin Shubao also played unfathomable and silent.
Looking at this situation, Qin Mubai thought with his feet and understood that it must be that the emperor had already informed Qin Shubao about the marriage.
For a long time, Qin Shubao has been looking forward to which of his sons can marry a princess. Among the founding heroes, his Qin Shubao's functional fame is not inferior to others, but he has never been able to get married by the emperor, which may have always been a heart disease in his heart. It's good now, there is no need for the emperor to give marriage, the emperor's favorite daughter would rather die than marry Fang Erlang, and desperately want to marry Qin Mubai - this is really a long face!
In the eyes of others, Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and others are the emperor's most relied on confidants; But in Qin Shubao's heart, he must really take them seriously. The old ministers and ministers who also followed the emperor were all as tall as each other, and they had the intention of secretly climbing the competition. Now it can be regarded as interesting, the emperor gave the marriage room Xuanling, and the princess of the family did not marry, so she had to jump to the Qin family.
This incident made Qin Shubao feel very bright on his face. As for what kind of farce is noted, he doesn't bother to care. Anyway, it's just Fang Yuai's love that makes a fool of himself, and his son doesn't have any outrageous initiative. This is to blame, we can only blame Qin Mubai for being too good-looking and capable, and too likable to women.
As soon as he thought of this, Qin Shubao felt a little happy in his heart: Isn't it because he looks like Lao Tzu?!
As a result, the princess's marriage changed in Chang'an, but Qin Shubao was worried and happy.
This point of his thoughts has been undoubtedly revealed in his words and deeds, and Qin Mubai also secretly felt funny after tasting it: It seems that my father is quite in favor of me digging the corner of the house? …… Here's the problem. It can be seen that his old man is quite happy to marry the emperor, but what about Wu Meiniang, who was promised to marry first? Her father didn't seem to have a big deal with her.
Subjectively speaking, Qin Mubai is willing to marry Wu Meiniang first and let her be his wife. Wu Meiniang is shrewd and capable, and with a little training, she will definitely be able to become a qualified virtuous helper. And some time ago, the two got along in Jiangzhou, and their relationship was growing day by day and there were many tacit understandings.
In contrast, although Princess Gaoyang is also deeply in love with herself, she can't bear to abandon her, but if she is allowed to be the head of the house...... Ahem, that's a duck rush.
Besides, this Wu Meiniang Bingxue is smart, and Princess Gaoyang is as enthusiastic as fire, whether the two can get together is still a big question!
"Hey, what a headache! When did I get into this lot of romantic debt? Qin Mubai was secretly distressed.
The father and son chatted and talked a lot, and they talked a lot about the military, politics and folk customs of the north and south. During the period, he said that the emperor had heard that Qin Shubao's condition had improved, and promised to come to Qin's house, and expressed his expectation for Qin Shubao's return to the army.
Qin Shubao was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "This is also because you have made meritorious contributions this time, and you have won glory for the Qin family, and I, who is a father, have also been stained." Moreover, the emperor must have considered your marriage to Princess Gaoyang, so he intends to promote my Qin family and raise my Qin family's family. A few days ago, I also heard that His Majesty the Emperor was preparing to promulgate the "Clan Chronicles" to re-rank the world's great surnames. The reason for this is that because they are still accustomed to the customs of the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the former Sui Dynasty, although many heroes from the dragon are in and out of the phase, in the eyes of the scholars, the door is still inferior to the old aristocratic door valve. In the "Chronicles of the Clan", the surname Li is naturally the most respected first surname, and others such as the eldest grandson, Fang Du, including the Qin surname of my Qin family, are all ranked as first-class surnames. In this way, my Qin family's door will be higher in the future. ”
Qin Mubai is not very interested in these, but at present, such a custom is prevalent in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no way. It's as if you're a dog from a wealthy family, and you're a little more arrogant than other people's dogs. Even if you are a beggar who sleeps on the street, as long as your ancestors have a little bit of contact with a famous family, there will be people who will respect people.
Qin Shubao lives in such an era and environment, and it is reasonable to care about it. Qin Mubai was not disgusted, nor could he talk about support.
"You've been busy this year, and you haven't stopped much and rarely come home. The New Year is approaching, the emperor has given you a vacation, and you happen to be at home to spend time with your mother and little sister. Qin Shubao said, "Moreover, my father's health is getting better and better, and I want to find someone to practice martial arts every day, but I have no opponent." From today onwards, you will go to the backyard with me every day and night to practice martial arts! ”
"Yes, father." Qin Mubai agreed, and his heart lit up and remembered something, and said, "Father, this time I went to Jiangzhou and brought back a stranger!" If my father had seen it, he would have been interested. ”
"What an alien?" Qin Shubao asked curiously.
"This person's martial arts are so high that they can be called shocking. The child thought to himself that he was no match for him. Qin Mubai deliberately provoked Qin Shubao and said, "Looking at the whole world, I am afraid that only my father in his prime can match it." ”
"No ambition!" Qin Shubao snorted, "Bring him here, and I want to personally learn it for my father." Could it be that Qin Qiong, who is fifty years old, is it really useless?! ”
"Yes, father." Qin Mubai gave it over, and he was happy in his heart: his father PK Xue Rengui...... What an exciting thing to be!
When you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent. Which of these two is more powerful? My father is now past his prime, and his martial arts are not the same as they were back then. But after all, he has fought on the battlefield all his life, and his actual combat experience is more than 10,000 times that of Xue Rengui; Xue Rengui is just young and strong, and he has an advantage in fighting spirit and physical strength......
But all martial artists, especially peak martial artists like Xue Rengui, who pursue the ultimate, think that they are happy to meet a suitable opponent. Coupled with my father's fame in the world, I will inevitably invite him to come. Just wait for the two to compete, whether they win or lose, it must be an interesting thing worth going down in history!
Qin Shubao, a famous general in the Tang Dynasty, VS Xue Rengui, a famous general in the Tang Dynasty, both of them are fierce generals who bravely champion the armies - what a classic duel this will be!
Thinking of this, Qin Mubai was secretly excited. I thought, tomorrow I will go to Mei Niang's Mansion and invite Xue Rengui and his wife to the house as guests!
