Qin Lei came out of the apse, and the third brother also followed, the two brothers looked at each other and smiled, and said in unison: "Happy!" He burst out laughing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"You two troublemakers, and you can still laugh?" A warm voice sounded from behind.

"Second brother." The two bowed.

Qin Ting patted the third child on the shoulder, patted Qin Lei again, and said softly, "Walk with me." The two nodded yes. The three brothers strolled along the high palace walls.

After a ride, there was silence. It was the prince who opened his mouth first: "Little Wu, have you thought about the consequences of being like this?" ”

Qin Lei shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Don't hide it from the second brother, I found Wen Yanbo the day before yesterday, this old thing is very good, I don't embarrass the fourth child in the court today, as for the grievances with me, I will settle them one by one after today." ”

The prince frowned and said, "Then why did you burn down Dali Temple?" ”

Qin Lei snorted and said slightly angrily: "I didn't do it at all, it was clearly Wen Yanbo who planted the blame on me!" He sighed lightly: "I'm still too honest, how can I believe what this old fox says?" It's a long lesson. ”

Qin Lin said indignantly: "Wen Yanbo obviously wants to plant the impression of the fifth brother's cruelty and inhumanity in the hearts of hundreds of officials, it is simply insidious!" ”

The prince's eyebrows were soothed, and he said softly: "Why don't you two discuss it with me, the second brother is a prince anyway, and there are still people who listen to what he says." The words were strange, but they made the two feel a strong brotherhood.

Qin Lei scratched his head and said with a smile: "It's our fault, we must not forget to find my brother next time." Qin Lin on the side also echoed: "That's it, we are too confident." We'll find out next time. ”

The prince smiled and nodded, then sighed and said worriedly: "Since Xiao Wu was assassinated in the south, the imperial court has become like this. Even the deliberations of the imperial study have been suspended for more than a month, and the operation of the entire imperial court yamen does not know how slow it is. ”

The third brother also said with deep feelings: "The second brother said well, nothing else matters, as soon as the deliberations in the imperial study are stopped, many things that should not be taken to the court have no place to discuss, and as a result, at the court meeting, you fight for me, the baht must be investigated, and the prevarication is carried out, and it will drag on for an hour or two every time, and there are not a few things to discuss." ”

Qin Lei nodded and did not speak. Thinking that he was worried about Wen Yanbo's revenge, the prince patted him on the shoulder and chuckled: "Are you afraid now that you know?" Where did Fang Cai's arrogance go? ”

Qin Lei knew that he wanted to go wrong, but he didn't say anything to explain, since the prince wanted to take this opportunity to ease the relationship between them, Qin Lei naturally wouldn't object.

The prince thought that he had guessed correctly, and comforted him gently: "Xiao Wu, don't worry, won't you go out of Beijing to recuperate in a few days?" After a few months of recuperation outside, the second brother will help you slow down, and when you come back for the New Year, this matter will pass, rest assured. ”

Qin Lei smiled gratefully and said softly, "Thank you, second brother." ”

At this time, a personal little eunuch of Emperor Zhaowu ran over from a distance, panting, and asked the three highnesses to move to the Qianming Palace to accompany His Majesty to dinner.

The three of them did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed the eunuch through several palace walls, and came to the Qianming Palace, where Emperor Zhaowu lived daily. Emperor Zhaowu sat on the top, smiling at his three sons.

The three of them hurriedly bowed down and greeted him, "Father, Emperor Sheng'an." ”

Emperor Zhaowu smiled and let the three of them sit at the table, and said with a rare smile: "How did the three little rabbit cubs get together?" ”

The three of them entered the table according to the eldest and youngest under the service of the palace maid, and Qin Lei was naturally willing to accompany the last seat. Hearing Emperor Zhaowu's question, the crown prince replied with a smile: "My father often taught my children to love brothers, so we just followed our father's teachings and chatted and laughed together." ”

Qin Lei and Qin Lin glanced at each other imperceptibly, and secretly despised the second child in his heart for speaking beautifully, and the sycophants were even louder, and sure enough, Emperor Zhaowu was stunned, and he smiled so much that he showed his four teeth, and said: "Not bad, Ting'er has a look like a brother." In the past, I always saw you tepid, but I didn't want to be strong for my brother today. As he spoke, he pointed to the third and fifth children, and said to Qin Ting: "These two little guys are very frizzy, you have to take care of it more like today." "It seems that I am very satisfied with the performance of the prince today.

The prince was overjoyed, and expressed his determination for a while, patted his ass for a while, and made Qin Lei and Qin Lin directly lose their appetite, but Emperor Zhaowu was very useful, and even ate one and a half bowls more than usual.

After finishing the meal, the father and son went to the side hall to have tea, knowing that Emperor Zhaowu had the habit of taking a nap, and said something considerate, and the three of them got up and said goodbye. Emperor Zhaowu left Qin Lei behind, saying that he would train him alone.

The prince wished that Qin Lei was scolded and his body was incomplete, and it would be good if he lost his holy family, so he pretended to plead for Qin Lei, and then pulled the worried third child away.

As soon as they left, Emperor Zhaowu asked the old eunuch Zhuo to clear the scene, and then ordered him to personally guard the door so that the two could talk secretly.

Seeing this situation, Qin Lei smiled dryly: "It seems that my father doesn't want to train his sons." ”

Emperor Zhaowu leaned back on the leisurely chair, and scolded with a smile when he heard the words: "You dog don't pretend to be garlic, do you still need to pick a time if I want to train you?" I really don't know what I'm looking for you? ”

Qin Lei touched his head and smiled: "How dare the child be presumptuous? ”

Emperor Zhaowu snorted and said coldly: "You don't dare to speculate, but I want to figure out what you mean." ”

Qin Lei said in his heart, sure enough, he is like a tiger, the ancients did not deceive me, and hurriedly leaned over and said: "The father is angry, the child is loyal and courageous, the sun and the moon can be seen, and I dare not have the slightest intention of deceiving the king." ”

Seeing Qin Lei obediently lying down, the corners of Emperor Zhaowu's mouth turned up slightly, but he still said in a deep voice: "If you are really a disloyal and unrighteous rebel, I would have chopped things with a knife a long time ago, how could I waste my tongue with you?" Qin Lei knew that this was called raising first and then suppressing, just listen to the Yang in front of him, he couldn't take it seriously, and the focus was on the suppression in the back. Sure enough, Emperor Zhaowu said quietly: "Are you jealous?" ”

Qin Lei shouted in his heart that he was wronged, what is there to be jealous of? Growing up so big, except for envying the little fat man that he has a girlfriend, he never knew what envy was and what jealousy was.

If you look good, grab it, and be jealous of a bird.

What's more, even if he is not wronged, he can't really admit it, so he naturally called out to hit the sky, and arched his head and said: "The child has never read any books since he was a child, but he also knows that the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and the father gives it, and the child readily accepts it, and the father does not give it, and the child never has extravagant hopes, how can he be jealous?" As he spoke, he raised his head and said very seriously: "And the child has always felt that only others are jealous of my ......."

Emperor Zhaowu finally couldn't hold back his face, and laughed out loud and said: "You little, get up, since only others are jealous of you, my father won't waste words with you, let's get down to business." ”

Qin Lei got up and thanked him with a look of ignorance, sat down again, scratched his head and said, "The child is confused, what the hell is going on?" ”

Emperor Zhaowu smiled faintly and said, "Didn't you just say that thunder, rain and dew are all Jun'en?" I think you're saying it well, but I want to add that if my father doesn't say it, never ask. ”

Qin Lei scolded secretly in his heart, old thing, if you say you're fat, you will gasp, and if you say you're a cow, you'll moo. But he said respectfully: "The child remembers the teachings of his father. ”

Emperor Zhaowu nodded with satisfaction, stopped talking about Fang Cai's affairs, and said in a deep voice: "Today in the court, you are doing very well and stupidly. ”

Qin Lei asked stupidly: "Good is good, how can it be good and stupid?" ”

Emperor Zhaowu took a sip of tea, looked at Qin Lei and said with emotion: "Your kid hasn't read for a few days, this is a big regret, and a great blessing." ”

"Huh?" Qin Lei asked stupidly, this old emperor has the wrong line in his brain today, right? Why did you chant hazy poetry?

Emperor Zhaowu was a little proud of his literary brilliance, and people with a little culture loved to show off in front of the illiterate, as if only in this way could he prove that he was a cultural person, it seems that this principle is common in ancient and modern times.

Fortunately, Emperor Zhaowu's time was precious, and he was reluctant to waste it on choosing words and sentences, and finally said in the vernacular: "You are not infected with the sour and rotten scholar's bad breath, and you are an upright person and a frank and honest person." The past discord between you and the fourth child is known to the father, and you are committed to the rescue of the fourth child, and the father also knows it. It's very gratifying to be a father, and after a hundred years of being a father, you ten brothers and sisters still have to rely on you to support you. ”

Qin Lei suddenly became vigilant, the old man called 'father' so closely, and it made people think so much, what kind of flavor is this? It's a taste of calculation. But with a look of trepidation on his face, he said: "My father is in the prime of the Spring and Autumn Period, and he will definitely live a long life, oh no, he will definitely not need children to protect his brothers and sisters." ”

Emperor Zhaowu laughed and said: "You kid, the thousand-year-old king is 80,000 years old, and my father doesn't want to be an old turtle." After speaking, he stared at Qin Lei with his eyes fixedly, and said in a deep voice: "If, I mean that if, wait until I am a hundred years later, and leave you an edict, will you carry it out?" ”

Qin Lei hurriedly climbed down again and said in a muffled voice: "The child will never give up." ”

"If it weren't you who ascended the throne, would you still be willing to do it?" Emperor Zhaowu asked faintly, "Raise your head and look at me." ”

Qin Lei raised his head obediently, looked at Emperor Zhaowu with honest eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The child swears to the sky, as long as it is said by the father, the child will definitely carry it out to the end, even if he is broken, he will never complain." "This is said at a very high level, at first glance, it is indeed saying that I am doing to show loyalty, but if you dig deeper, Qin Lei did not guarantee his loyalty to the new monarch in the future, that is, he only listened to Emperor Zhaowu. But after the death of Emperor Zhaowu, how could he still talk to the old man? Dreaming?

That's right, dream! Qin Lei can completely pretend to be an old man and do whatever he wants.

At this time, people swore very seriously, so Qin Lei said this, which made Emperor Zhaowu Long Yan happy, twisted his beard and said: "Okay, good, sure enough, it is my father's loyalty and righteousness, and I am a good golang!" If he knew that Qin Lei actually left a back door for himself in his oath, he would not have said so.

But before that day comes, who can say who is a traitor? At least Emperor Zhaowu now believes in Qin Lei, gets up and goes to the desk, lifts the pen, dips it in thick ink, writes on a blank yellow silk, and after the pen is down, he unties the emperor's seal from his waist and covers it on his own money, and a simple edict has become, and the effect is completely equivalent to the book written by the eunuch and stamped with the holy decree of the jade seal of the Great Qin Emperor.

Qin Lei respectfully took the holy decree and looked at it, naturally he would not work as hard as a year ago, and at a glance, he knew that he had said three things, one of which was to crown himself as the king of the two counties, the king of Longwei County, and give the mansion, and another reward will be given soon; Second, he moved to the right as the Zongzheng Mansion and the Great Zongzheng, and ruled the royal family. Third, he was ordered to reorganize the Zongzheng Army, temporarily according to the standard configuration of the forbidden army of 20,000 and 5,000 people in the first army, and the military expenses were all out of the inner treasury.

Although the good news is not new, and the new news is not rare, Qin Lei still has to honestly arch and say: "Father Emperor Longen, the child dares not to die?" ”

Emperor Zhaowu helped him up and said with a smile: "Yutian, my father has given you the greatest trust and support, don't let me down." ”

Qin Lei looked grateful, and hissed: "The child is losing his skin, and he must also revive the majesty of the Zongzheng Mansion soldiers for his father!" ”

Emperor Zhaowu nodded and said with a smile: "It is true that you have to pay more attention and exert more effort, money is not a problem, but you must let me see the effect," he said, and revealed: "I will let the soldiers of Zongzheng Mansion participate in the big military exercise in the spring of the next year." ”

Speaking of practical things, Qin Lei didn't care about pretending to be stupid, and said in a deep voice: "The big military exercise is a competition between the eight armies of the forbidden army, and in the spring of the next year, our new army will be formed in less than a year and a half, whether it can form a reliable combat force or not, how can it be qualified to compete with the elite of my Great Qin?" ”

Emperor Zhaowu was slightly displeased and said, "Do you also have times when you are afraid?" ”

Qin Lei said without hurry: "If the child is alone, there is nothing to be afraid of even if he singles out the eight armies of the forbidden army, anyway, it is better to die vigorously." However, our new army pinned on the deep intention of our father to break the balance with the Li family and regain dominance, but we must be cautious. ”

Emperor Zhaowu's face turned slightly pale, beckoned Qin Lei to sit down again, and said softly: "How can my father not know these things? But you once said something that I thought was true. ”

Qin Lei hurriedly said, "What words can be honored to be recognized by my father?"

"You said that war should serve politics, and if you win a war but lose politics, you will still lose, and if you lose a war but win politics, you will not lose......" Emperor Zhaowu said with a smile.

Qin Lei felt a chill down his spine, this was something he mentioned when he was teaching the black-clothed guards and the officers of the guards about the relationship between strategy and tactics, but it had never been circulated outside. It seems that after checking and screening repeatedly, it is inevitable that nails will be mixed into his own team, and it is an officer team.

Emperor Zhaowu said slightly proudly: "What's the matter?" Upset?"

Qin Lei felt good about Emperor Zhaowu, but he hated him for being cheap and obedient, and said angrily when he heard the words: "The child is thinking, which rabbit cub is chewing his tongue outside, spreading these crazy words of the child, and polluting the holy hearing!" "If he is too calm or too panicked at this time, it will make Emperor Zhaowu secretly vigilant, and only by taking the usual frank route will Emperor Zhaowu not be suspicious.

"Hehe, it's time to investigate." Emperor Zhaowu said noncommittally, then changed the conversation, returned to the original topic, and said in a deep voice: "Now that politics requires you to take this army to participate in a big military exercise, what should you do?" ”

Qin Lei said with a solemn face: "Please explain in detail to the emperor, the child has to be cautious, otherwise it is likely to ruin the future of a strong army." ”

When Emperor Zhaowu heard him say solemnly, he couldn't help but hesitate and said: "This matter has not been decided yet, you can help me refer to it first." Then he told the result of his discussion with Li Hun: "You also know that the eight armies of our Great Qin Forbidden Army are not subordinate to each other, and they fight separately in peacetime, and only when there is a war with Qi Chu will they temporarily form an army under the command of a certain general. The successive wars since I ascended the throne have proven that not only will we not be able to form a joint force, but on the contrary, they will hinder each other and will not be able to exert their original real combat power. "There is no emperor of Great Qin who can't fight, and he naturally sees these things clearly.

"Li Hun and I did not give in to each other for many years, and finally reached a very rare agreement on this matter, forming the Forbidden Army Command, with a Marshal of the Forbidden Army responsible for the daily training and wartime command of all the troops belonging to the Forbidden Army sequence."

"Isn't this an upgraded version of the Hussar General?" Qin Lei blurted out, and then remedied: "The child is saying, isn't this a high-level hussar general?" ”

Emperor Zhaowu laughed and said, "If it is the empty marshal who is like a general, will I and Li Hun still have to fight for three years?" ”
