When leaving the dormitory of Princess Gaoyang's mother and daughter, Qin Mubai really breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, the current hurdle has been overcome. It's easy to talk about it, coercion and temptation, so I almost used a beautiful man's trick, Princess Gaoyang finally agreed, and first expressed her compromise and willingness to accept this marriage.

This means that at this time, the emperor can be brought down to the throne without loss.

Qin Mubai did use a delaying tactic, but he used it against the emperor. Either way, you have to buy yourself a little time. As for the "poison plan...... It can be implemented slowly and step by step. As long as there is time for mediation, there is no need to worry about no chance.

When he walked out of the Immortal Residence Palace, a hundred horsemen junior colonel suddenly walked up to Qin Mubai, secretly gave a look, and said in a low voice: "General, after you just entered the hall, General Changsun suddenly left in a hurry under the pretext of excuses. ”

"Got it." Qin Mubai nodded and walked away.

Looking at the expression in the eyes of this little school, Qin Mubai understood a rough idea in his heart - this little school was reminding Qin Mubai that the eldest grandson was very likely to run to the emperor to sue him privately!

Vile!

It's really a time of trouble to know who is a friend and who is an enemy!

Usually, this eldest grandson behaves obediently and doesn't dare to make another time. But as soon as he fell into trouble, he hurriedly shot and fell into the well. Now everyone in the palace knows that I, Qin Mubai, have a great relationship with Princess Gaoyang's refusal to marry, and I am a "major suspect". I came to the Immortal Palace at this time, and in his opinion, it must have been a private conspiracy with Princess Gaoyang, or an ulterior attempt, or even an affair.

With a sneer, Qin Mubai went straight to Penglai Palace. At this time, the emperor was having fun with Li Zhi and Li Mingda.

Walking outside the Penglai Palace, Qin Mubai happened to bump into the eldest grandson. The two of them looked at each other, and the eldest grandson suddenly looked confused, and with a gray face, he arched his hand slightly, and said, "General Qin", and walked away.

Needless to say, this guy must have been scolded by the emperor. The false accusation against Lao Tzu is deserved!

Entering the Penglai Palace, Qin Mubai heard Li Shimin's hearty laughter and Li Zhi and Li Mingda's childish laughter from the palace. In fact, Li Shimin has always been like this, no matter what unpleasant things are in the court, how bad the mood is, and he always has a smiling face when he comes here. What he shows in front of Li Zhi and Li Mingda is always an amiable and kind and loving father figure.

Maybe Li Shimin's treatment of Princess Gaoyang when he was a child is exactly like this, right? Otherwise, Princess Gao Yang would not be so rebellious and sensitive. Seeing that Li Shimin is too good to Li Mingda, she will be jealous; Suddenly learned that Li Shimin was going to marry her, and she resisted hysterically. In fact, maybe Princess Gaoyang may not really hate Fang Yiai, or dislike this marriage, but she can't accept the change in Li Shimin's attitude towards her for a while.

In fact, what did Li Shimin do wrong? Doting on one's own daughter, although it is a bit excessive, is indeed a manifestation of fatherhood; Taking care of a meritorious minister and marrying a daughter, in the past, one was to stabilize the imperial power, and the other was to win over important ministers, which was also a matter for a king; Wanting to marry their daughters better is a good wish of most fathers.

But these things are connected in series, from doting to "abandonment" and "use", which makes Princess Gaoyang feel a huge gap, so she can't accept it at all.

Qin Mubai secretly shook his head and sighed: As the saying goes, it is really difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs. Li Shimin is a wise man, a great man, and a smart man, right? Such a wonderful man can't take care of the housework well. Although he hopes and works hard to be a good father, it backfires!

This is just a little princess Gaoyang, he has twenty or thirty children, and there are some adult sons who are fighting for the heir...... Li Shimin, the emperor, really deserves to be heartwarming enough. Especially after the death of the eldest grandson empress who was in charge of the harem. No wonder he wants to organize an army of 100 cavalry to the harem, in the name of protecting the royal family, but in fact, it is also to strengthen his control over these concubines and children.

Walking outside the dormitory, Qin Mubai asked the attendant to report it, and after a while, he was able to announce his summons.

Li Zhi and Li Mingda were still so innocent, and when they saw Qin Mubai, they laughed happily and greeted the call of the village chief.

Li Shimin watched with a smile on the side, and when they had a little fight, he called the nurse to take the child away, and specially gave Qin Mubai a seat to sit with him and drink tea together.

"Mu Bai, how did you go to the Immortal Residence Hall just now?" Li Shimin asked.

Qin Mubai arched his hand and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Wei Chen is fortunate not to be dishonored, and has persuaded Her Royal Highness Princess Gaoyang to agree to marry the Fang family." ”

"Did you really agree?" Li Shimin's brows furrowed slightly, and he questioned a little incredulously.

"Weichen didn't dare to bully the princess, and Her Royal Highness did agree verbally." Qin Mubai said: "However, Weichen can see that Her Royal Highness the princess is still a little unwilling and reluctant, but she is forced to compromise helplessly. ”

"Compromise?" Li Shimin paused, nodded with a smile, "Does this unruly daughter of mine also know how to compromise?" ”

"In fact, everyone knows how to compromise when there is no way." Qin Mubai smiled slightly and said, "Weichen said to Her Royal Highness the princess that Your Majesty was forced to marry by the envoys of Tubo, and she was forced to marry very tightly. Because His Majesty had previously agreed to the marriage request of the Tubo people, Jun Wu joked that it was not easy to repent. Moreover, the Tubo people also know that His Majesty the Emperor has a beautiful daughter in the boudoir, and every day he is urging to marry Tubo. Then Weichen exaggerated the Tubo people...... In addition, the virtuous and polite Yin De Concubine Niangniang persuaded Her Royal Highness the princess from the side, and finally agreed verbally first. ”

"This dead girl has to eat hard, not soft." Li Shimin seemed to be smiling, and wiped his nose a little playfully, and said: "No matter what, I can make her soft for the time being, and things will be easy to do." I'll leave the rest to me and Concubine Yinde. ”

"Your Majesty actually has very little effect in persuading Her Royal Highness Princess Gaoyang. It's more about the persuasion of Concubine Yin De Niangniang. Qin Mubai said: "Concubine Yinde, Niangniang is very smart, obviously knows Her Royal Highness Princess Gaoyang too much better than Weichen. She knew what the princess was thinking, fearing, and worrying about. A few words of persuasion are better than Wei Chen's long words. ”

"I believe it." Li Shimin smiled hehehe: "My concubine has always been knowledgeable and courteous, quite knowledgeable, righteous and virtuous, virtuous and intelligent. Moreover, she has been living with Gao Yang all the year round, and she knows Gao Yang very well, which is not as good as her. It's just that I also know that Concubine Yin De has always doted on Gao Yang, and her usual practice is to follow her and protect her, even if she does something wrong, she will not beat or scold. This time, you can let her follow and persuade Gao Yang, and your credit is not small. You've done a good job. ”

What credit do I have, it's all your murderous "deterrence" at work! Fortunately, Concubine Yin and I are not too stupid, I understand your intentions, otherwise I would have done the soul under the knife, and I don't know what is going on, it is really a companion like a tiger! - Qin Mubai thought so in his heart.

"Wechen doesn't know what the final effect will be, so he can only do his best." Qin Mubai arched his hand and replied with a deliberate sigh.

"Hehe, sigh what's the matter!" Li Shimin's mood was much more relaxed, and he laughed: "I know that this time it is actually you who have been wronged the most. But those who achieve great things must first have a mind. If you want to be angry and wronged, doesn't Han Xin still endure the humiliation? I was also beaten to Chang'an City by Jieli back then, and I was forced to give him grain, grass and livestock before he was allowed to retire. But within a few years, he was my prisoner! ”

"Your Majesty's wisdom and martial arts will never be as good as Your Majesty's." Qin Mubai said.

"Haha! But Guo Qianzhen knows that you are a rare talent. Li Shimin laughed a few times, was silent thoughtfully, and said: "We won't discuss Gaoyang's matter for the time being, and wait until I go to the Immortal Residence Hall to ask her what she means, and then make a decision." I now ask you something else. ”

"Your Majesty, please."

"What do you think of this person, Changsun Lian?" Li Shimin asked.

"General Changsun...... He has always been Weichen's deputy, his ability to do things is outstanding, and he is also more authoritative among the sergeants. Moreover, he was born in a famous family, has a wide range of friends, is very appealing in the army, and his own ability is also good, erudite and versatile, and his martial arts are good. Qin Mubai said. But I was thinking in my heart: The emperor is probably dissatisfied with him because of the complaint of the eldest grandson just now, and asked me for my opinion and attitude towards him. At this time, of course, I can't fall into the well and say bad things, otherwise I will become the same person as the eldest grandson, and I will be looked down upon by the emperor. Moreover, I am a prefect, and playing a small report on my subordinates in front of the emperor is itself a manifestation of incompetence and narrow-mindedness.

"In this way, Changsun Jian is a rare talent for young talents with both ability and political integrity?" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"That's true." Qin Mubai replied: "Although Weichen had a small friction with him, it was just a little unpleasant in private and insignificant. In the army, we still live in harmony and cooperate in official affairs. In general, Weichen thinks that Changsun Lian is a very competent deputy envoy of the hundred horses. Over time, he will be more capable. ”

"Really? But I don't think so. Li Shimin sneered and said: "Eldest grandson, he may be a little smart, he also follows the martial artists in the family, and he also has some martial arts, and since then he has been pretentious." I see that he is superficial, flashy, narrow-minded, intolerant, and far less upright and good in character than his father and brother. It is not a good thing for such a person to stay by my side and stay in Baiqi for a long time. Therefore, I decided to transfer the eldest grandson to serve in other armies. What do you think? ”
