Chapter Twenty-Six: Can You Trust Me?
Chapter 26
Two quarters of an hour later, Li Shimin arrived outside the gate of the Yiguo Mansion, he had not been to this place for more than two years, and the last time he came was after Qin Qiong's death.
"Your Majesty, did Peping do anything wrong, if he did anything wrong, the old minister went to teach a lesson, why do you need Your Majesty to come here in person?" Chi Jingde, the Duke of Hubei, was very worried, now that Li Shimin arrived at the Qin Mansion overnight, is it because of what Qin Huaidao did?
"No, don't worry, I just asked you to come over and be a witness! I know that Peping, this kid, may not trust me very much because he has a misunderstanding about me now, so I need to ask you to come over and be a witness, hoping to gain this child's trust! Li Shimin stood there, looked at the Duke of Eguo with a smile and said,
The gang of Guogong heard it, you look at me, I look at you, no one knows what to witness, but looking at Li Shimin's expression and tone, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
"Call someone to go!" Li Shimin turned his head to Cheng Chuhei, who was standing beside him, and said,
Cheng Chuhei originally wanted to go in person, but since Li Shimin said that he was calling someone, he couldn't go over in person, and soon, a guard went over to inform him, and Li Zhi stood there and kept bowing his head.
At this moment, here in the Qin Mansion, in Qin Huaidao's study, Qin Huaidao was still writing.
"Young master, young master, quickly, Your Majesty is here!" At this moment, the housekeeper rushed into the study excitedly and shouted to Qin Huaidao, who was writing,
Qin Huaidao heard it, looked up at the housekeeper, and was a little unresponsive.
"Young Master, it's Your Majesty, Your Majesty and a few other princes are here!" The butler was so happy that he was even red, and his eyes were full of fanaticism.
"Ahh Qin Huaidao was reacting at the moment, and then immediately stood up, cleaned up the things on the desk, and put them away, and at the same time thought in his heart, Qin Huaidao immediately thought of the matter that he and Li Zhi discussed in the afternoon.
"Hah!" Qin Huaidao shook his head with a wry smile, knowing that this matter could not be hidden, and then Qin Huaidao walked outside, thinking as he walked,
Since you want to release it, you must also strive for enough benefits for yourself, and you also need to ensure that if you don't have enough guarantees, you would rather bully the king than release it.
The officials on the side of the family are not stupid, once they release it, they will know how big the impact of this paper will be on them!
Qin Huaidao arrived at the gate of the front yard, and at this moment, Qin Jiao and Qin Shandao were also brought over by the maids.
"Open the middle door!" Qin Huaidao said to the housekeeper.
"Open the middle door!" The housekeeper shouted loudly, and the housekeeper at the door immediately opened the middle door, and a large number of left guard soldiers came in, Qin Huaidao was also pulling his younger brothers and sisters to salute at this moment, and the housekeeper was also on the side.
"Big brother, what's wrong?" Qin Jiao asked her eldest brother in a low voice, she didn't know who was coming.
Soon, Li Shimin entered the Qin Mansion with a group of grandfathers.
"Minister, Qin Huaidao, bring your younger brothers and sisters, knock to see Your Majesty!" Qin Huaidao saw Li Shimin coming in, and immediately shouted, Qin Jiao and Qin Shandao bowed and saluted.
"Pepin, excuse me!" Li Shimin's voice came from a distance, and at the same time, his footsteps were also walking quickly this way.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qin Huaidao shouted loudly, and then pulled his younger brothers and sisters to get up together.
"Okay, I haven't seen you for more than two years, and it's really a talent, good!" At this moment, Li Shimin had already arrived at Qin Huaidao's side, and looked at Qin Huaidao and nodded with great satisfaction.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment!" Qin Huaidao responded to Li Shimin and said, he didn't ask Li Shimin about the so-called appropriateness of visiting overnight.
"Let's go, take me to Shubao's mourning hall, I want to go over and burn two sticks of incense!" Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao with a smile and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! This way, please! When Qin Huaidao heard it, he immediately arched his hand and said, then made a gesture of please, and led the way in front of him.
The housekeepers and housekeepers in the family were all busy, and soon, Qin Huaidao took them to the mourning hall in the backyard of the Qin Mansion, where there were incense and candles burning, and there were also family members guarding, Qin Huaidao led them in front,
Li Shimin and the fathers-in-law, as well as Cheng Chuhei, Li Zhi and the others immediately picked up the incense and began to light it.
And Qin Huaidao and Qin Shandao, Qin Jiao and the three of them knelt down, as a thanksgiving, after Li Shimin finished worshipping, he stood beside Qin Huaidao and looked carefully at Qin Huaidao who was kneeling there,
At this moment, Qin Huaidao's eyes were clear and his face was calm.
"Get up, go to your study and say, it's good, this tea-making technique has come from you, and I also want to taste the tea made by you yourself!" Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao with a smile and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" When Qin Huaidao heard this, he immediately kowtowed three times, and then stood up.
"Housekeeper, send the eldest lady and the second young master to rest!" Qin Huaidao said to the housekeeper,
The housekeeper nodded, and immediately the two of them took Qin Jiao and Qin Shandao to sleep, while Qin Huaidao led the way in front and went all the way to his study.
"It's not good to drink tea at night, you need to eat something to cushion it, butler, go get some snacks!" After Qin Huaidao entered the study, he commanded the housekeeper.
"Yes, the old slave will go and prepare immediately!" When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately went out, and he did not dare to borrow the hand of others for such a thing.
"Your Majesty, uncles, please be seated!" Qin Huaidao stood on the main seat and made a gesture to them to sit down,
Li Jing saw Qin Huaidao so calm and calm, and couldn't help touching his beard, very satisfied!
"Pepin, yes, you have your father's demeanor!" And Duan Zhixuan, the Duke of Baoguo, couldn't help but praise it directly.
"Of course, Brother Shubao's son, it can be worse!" Wei Chi Jingde heard Duan Zhixuan's praise and was very satisfied, just like praising his son.
"Thank you uncle for the compliment, nephew is ashamed!" Qin Huaidao smiled at them, then sat down and began to prepare tea.
"Brother Peping, please accept my worship!" Li Zhi suddenly stood up at this moment, bowed his hand to Qin Huaidao, and then bowed to the end.
"This, for the sake of good brother, why should it be so?" Qin Huaidao heard it, and quickly put down the things in his hand and went to help Li Zhi.
"Hey, for the good brother, I did one thing today, ha, Pepin, don't say it for the good brother, you know, please accept it again!" Li Zhi said that he was going to bow down again, but was stopped by Qin Huaidao.
"It doesn't have to be like this, Brother Boping told you about this matter today, and I also thought of such a possibility afterwards, after all, for the good brother, you are a person with a humble heart, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for you to help me hide it!" Qin Huaidao helped Li Zhi and said,
Li Zhi heard it, nodded, and said to Qin Huaidao again: "Today, for the good brother, I'm sorry!" ”
"It's okay, please take a seat!" Qin Huaidao smiled slightly, invited them to sit down, and began to make tea, while Li Jing and the others also looked at Qin Huaidao,
Soon, a small snack was served, and Qin Huaidao smiled at them and said, "It's better to drink tea at night and eat some snacks!" ”
"Well, Pepin, this popcorn, the old man's favorite, sweet, the old man is at home, when he is hungry, he wants to eat this!" Yu Chi Jingde said with a smile, almost every month, Qin Huaidao will send a batch to Yu Chi Jingde's mansion, he knows that Yu Chi Jingde likes it, so he sends it every month.
"Uncle likes it, and my nephew doesn't have any ability, just make some gadgets!" Qin Huaidao heard Wei Chi Jingde say this, and said with a happy smile,
Li Shimin was a little surprised to see him so happy, he didn't expect that such a small thing could make Qin Huaidao so happy.
"Well, come, Senior Brother Yao, taste it, it's delicious, really!" Wei Chi Jingde smiled and said to Li Jing with a small snack.
"The old man knows, and you need to say it, the old man likes this too!" Li Jing smiled and touched his beard and said, while Li Shimin was sitting there, watching Qin Huaidao make tea there, Qin Huaidao just didn't take the initiative to say, but he couldn't help but take the initiative.
"Your Majesty, please!" After Qin Huaidao brewed the tea, he brought it to Li Shimin, made a gesture of please, and then held the teacup to the others.
Their fathers-in-law, as well as Cheng Chuhei, are very puzzled at the moment, what is Li Shimin doing here?
"Peping, the previous incident was indeed wronged by you, I know that it was not you who did it, but I, since I have been punished, there is no way to change it, and I can't change it, but the position of this prince of yours, according to what I thought before, will be restored to you sooner or later!" Li Shimin put down the teacup, and when Qin Huaidao was refilling the tea, Li Shimin stared at Qin Huaidao and said.
"Your Majesty, there is no grievance!" Qin Huaidao put down the fair cup, stood up, and arched his hand.
"You don't have to stand up, just sit down and say, I want to have a good chat with you, I heard that you have not pursued this part of the official position?" Li Shimin asked with a smile at Qin Huaidao.
"This, the minister, the minister is still young, the minister wants to study for a few years, and when he matures, it is not too late to enter the court as an official, but the minister also knows that several uncles are also worried about the ambition of the minister to play outside, and it will be out of control when the time comes, so I hope that the minister will enter the court as soon as possible!" Qin Huaidao sat there, looked at Li Shimin and said.
"Well, I know that you have grievances in your heart, and you don't dare to say it, these are all excuses, I know, I don't blame you!
But this paper, you need to get it out! The young slave said, you are worried that no one will be able to protect you, I called several of your uncles today, in fact, I am also your uncle,
Today, in front of your uncles, I am here to tell you, as long as you get out the paper, I will not talk about the national throne, I will definitely protect the integrity of your Qin Mansion and your thoughtfulness, can you trust me? Li Shimin said, staring at Qin Huaidao,
And Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, and they all looked at Li Shimin and Qin Huaidao in shock, paper, Qin Huaidao was actually able to get paper? The news was so big that they didn't have time to digest it at all.
