At the gate of the city, kneeling were the Jingshan City civil and military forces led by Guantao and Shi Yong, although they did not participate in the thrilling battle, but along the way, they could still make people feel that their fruitful work was also highly effective.

Qin Lei walked up to Guan Tao with a smile on his face, bent down to help him up, and said loudly: "Everyone, please get up, the lonely king is polite." ”
"Thank you, Lord Xie......" the people said in response to the loud voices.
"Let's get busy," Qin Lei waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't delay your business." As he spoke, he took Guantao's hand and walked quickly towards the inner city.
Zhang Zhizhi still looks like Mr. Dongyan, with a thin body, sunken eye sockets, and a little bit of rice particles on his beard stubble. Qin Lei held his thin right hand, and said with a smile as he walked: "I picked up a treasure back then, and the entire Jingshan City started from scratch, relying on Mr. Le; But from the desolation at the beginning to today's prosperity, it all depends on Mr. ”
Guan Tao smiled modestly, glanced in the direction of the palace and said, "You might as well talk about it another day, Lord Wang, you better go back quickly." ”
"What? Are you going to give birth? Qin Lei reacted suddenly, grabbed Zhang Zhizhi's hand tightly, and asked in a low voice.
"There's a letter from inside," Guantao couldn't help him from pinching it like this, and said with sweat on his forehead: "Since last night, it has been eight hours now, and the fourth princess has not yet given birth to the little master." ”
Qin Lei's face tightened, but all around him were full of subjects staring at him, and any emotion he had would amplify the infection and potentially cause unnecessary trouble. Stabilizing his mind and taking a deep breath, he returned to normal, and walked to the palace with Guantao in a lively and laughing manner.
But what he said along the way, others didn't understand, and he himself couldn't remember clearly.
Yongfu was waiting at the gate of the mansion as early as possible, and when he saw Qin Lei's figure, he ran over quickly, hugged his arm, and shouted, "Big brother, big brother."
Qin Lei touched her little head, and said with a smile: "The little girl is strong, she can run and jump." ”
Yongfu was not happy at the time, and pouted: "I am not a calf......
Qin Lei smiled and said, "How is your sister-in-law?" ”
Hearing this, Yongfu put his hand on his forehead and said, "Big brother, come in, Sister Ruolan is about to give birth." After speaking, he dragged Qin Lei towards the courtyard.
Passing through several mansions, bypassing rockeries and flowing water, as soon as he arrived at the 'Musk Pavilion' where Ruolan lived, Qin Lei heard a weak moan. The tip of his heart seemed to be pulled up all at once, and he couldn't care about disguise anymore, and ran towards the musk pavilion with his legs.
He ran in such a hurry that he stumbled over the high threshold, and it didn't stop him.
Stumbling to the door, Qin Lei stabilized his figure, pushed the door and walked in.
"Go out and go out...... Seeing a man rushing in, the servants and servants in the house jumped to their feet and shouted, as if they had been trampled on their tails: "How can any man come in, get out quickly!" ”
A few mothers-in-law stepped forward to drive Qin Lei, this is their territory, and it is the only place where they can exert their authority, even if the emperor Laozi arrives here, he has to listen obediently and endure their arrogance.
Why? Because the medical conditions are too poor at this time, and the matter of one corpse and two lives is too common, if these perverted old women are not happy and something goes wrong, then there is really no place to cry.
In fact, as soon as they saw the Eight Dragons robe on his body, those mothers-in-law knew Qin Lei's identity, but not only were they afraid, but they even felt unprecedented pleasure...... Men can't enter the delivery room, it's been like this for thousands of years, no matter how big your Prince Wucheng is, can you be bigger than the rules passed down from your ancestors?
But Qin Lei's eyes were fixed on the weak mother, how could he pay attention to these sloppy women? With an impatient wave of his hand, he flipped several mothers-in-law to the ground, raised his legs and walked past them.
How can a few mothers-in-law allow thousands of years of erection and authority to be trampled on? They were so bold that they hugged Qin Lei's calves, crying and howling: "You can't go in......"
The black-clothed guard stood outside the door with an indignant expression, but he didn't dare to take half a step beyond the thunder pool.
Seeing Ruolan's painful appearance, Qin Lei's heart was already like a knife, and he was entangled by a few inexplicable old women, and it can be imagined how strong the liver fire is!
Shiyun, who was midwifery in the house, saw it, and hurriedly scolded: "Are you crazy, let go of the prince!" He persuaded Qin Lei again: "Lord Wang, go out first, this is not a place for men." ”
Qin Lei sneered and said, "The Lonely King has no taboos!" As he spoke, he flicked his legs and shook several old women away, followed by a beautiful turn kick and kicked them out of the room.
Regardless of everyone's surprised or frightened eyes, Qin Lei strode to the edge of the bed and sat down, held Ruolan's cold little hand, and said in a deep voice: "Your husband is back, everything will be fine!" ”
Seeing that the prince didn't pay attention to any rules and regulations, those midwives suddenly became honest, but the indignation in their hearts can be imagined.
"What do you eat?" Seeing that Ruolan only raised her eyelids slightly, she continued to moan weakly, and Qin Lei reprimanded with a cold face: "Why does it take a day to give birth to a child?" ”
"Lord Wang, Sister Ruolan is in a difficult birth, no wonder a few mothers-in-law." Seeing that several stable women were trained to look ugly, Shiyun was afraid that they would be dissatisfied and troubled by it, so she hurriedly opened her mouth and persuaded her: "Don't be surprised, my prince is an anxious son." ”
A few stable women came back to their senses at this time, and while helping Ruolan deliver the baby, they chattered: "Lord Wang, you are extremely noble, but you also have to know that a woman gives birth to a child, it is all a ghost door closed and walked, if there is no competent person to deliver the baby, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious......" They obviously saw that the princess was soft, and wanted to kick their noses in the face.
"Shut up and give birth to me!" But the commander who didn't know the decision to kill and kill didn't have the patience to grind with them at all, so he only listened to Qin Lei say word by word: "If one of the children and the princess can't be saved, I will punish you nine clans alone!" ”
As soon as they heard that they were going to punish the nine clans, these old pious women who didn't eat hard and soft suddenly stopped, took out one hundred and twenty careful, and concentrated on delivering the baby for Ruolan.
It is also strange to say that the baby who has not been born for a day was born in this world with a loud cry half an hour after Qin Lei arrived home.
"Congratulations to the prince, mother and daughter are safe." Several midwives were submissively reported.
Lest Qin Lei dislike it and hurt Ruolan's heart, Shiyun nodded and smiled: "Pink and cute little county lord." As he spoke, he hugged the little baby girl in front of Qin Lei.
She is obviously overhearted, for Qin Lei, men and women are not a problem at all. Looking at the little baby girl with her eyes closed in Shiyun's arms, Qin Lei suddenly became at a loss, and said stupidly: "Is this my daughter?" ”
The little baby girl suddenly burst into tears, as if protesting against Qin Lei's stupid question.
Hearing this heart-wrenching cry, Qin Lei breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and ran to the courtyard, jumped and jumped with his arms raised, and shouted, "I finally have a child!" While shouting and jumping, he hugged and hugged at the same time, even the plane tree in the yard.
His happy appearance was crazy, which made the black-clothed guard in the courtyard secretly speechless, and said in his heart: 'I am so happy to give birth to a county lord, if I wait for the prince to come to the world, I can't faint directly?' ’
But when Qin Lei's eldest son was born a year later, it was really incomprehensible that the guards found that although he was very happy, he did not make such an outrageous act again.
Of course, they didn't know how important this child was to the prince, because from the moment she fell to the ground, there was finally a relative in this world who was connected to him by blood, and he was finally no longer alone......
Qin Lei named his daughter Bao'er, he cherished his eldest daughter so much that he would worry about his heart and lungs if he didn't see him for a day. For a whole spring, he didn't leave Jingshan City too far, so that he could see his little county lord every day and not miss every day of her growth.
Although Xiao Baoer has taken most of her husband's attention, it is already a luxury to see him every day, how can she eat a little doll's vinegar? It's too late to hurt her.
The fly in the ointment is that Yunshang and Yunluo are not in the mansion, so Qin Lei and the girls inevitably worry about it from time to time......
Yunshang was sent back to Tangzhou by Qin Lei, and he promised to go to Qiao's house in April and May this year to propose marriage and give her a dream wedding. And the little girl Yunluo ...... It's missing.
In fact, it is not missing, because she left a book and ran away. The paper couldn't contain the fire, and the news of Emperor Jingtai's death finally reached her ears, Yunluo fainted on the spot, and after three days and three nights of rice, she left a book and said: 'This princess is in a bad mood and goes out for a walk. She was never seen again.
This was already three months ago, and Shiyun had already asked Guantao to mobilize forces to find Princess Yunluo, but at the critical moment of Daqin's life and death, all the power of the Espionage Division was used to deal with the Qi State, so how could there be any spare strength to find a princess......
After Qin Lei came back, he naturally scolded Hou Xin, and he didn't even have a good face with Guantao and Shiyun, so the spy department went all out to find Yunluo's whereabouts. Coincidentally, the next day I got the news from the Nanchu Espionage Bureau that Princess Yunluo had secretly returned to China......
After confirming Yunluo's safety, Qin Lei was relieved, and even from his heart, he preferred that this little girl would never come back and stop making trouble for him. What a tea bag a woman is! Especially after a lot.
Of course, while dealing with household affairs, he was also paying close attention to the situation in the DPRK and China, and the express report of the Liaison Department was delivered three times a day, sending the major and minor affairs of the central capital city to the staff office, and then those intelligence staff officers with a keen sense of smell would remove the false from the true, screen and summarize, and submit it to his desk......
On the fifth day of the first month of March, the day after he left the central capital, Li Hun mobilized the men and horses of the Terracotta Temple and the whole city of Dasuo, intending to sweep away his subordinate industries, but as the center of gravity of the palace moved south to Jingshan City, Qin Lei's power in the central capital city had gone underground, and the industries on the bright side had disappeared, so the losses were extremely limited.
The blow failed, and the Taiwei Mansion launched a crackdown on Qin Lei's underground forces on the sixth day of the first month, but the Zhongdu Espionage Bureau was already entrenched, and the royal secret spy suddenly came to help, and the people of the Terracotta Temple pounced again.
At the same time, on the morning of the sixth day of the first lunar month, Yin of Kyoto Prefecture reported that all the officials of the Ministry of War were abducted by Prince Wucheng, and Emperor Tianyou was furious and asked the Kyoto Prefecture to strictly investigate the matter and rescue a group of captive officials. Wang Anting, a university scholar, asked how to deal with the affairs of the military department? Li Hun thought that it should be handled by the Taiwei Mansion, and Emperor Tianyou gladly agreed.
It's just that the structure of the military department is complex, with nearly 100 functional departments, which are connected with countless central and local yamen, which ensures the normal operation of the Great Qin military system. However, the Taiwei Mansion is just a department that simply gives orders to the military, and rashly taking over the errands of the military department will have no effect at all, and will only make things worse.
It was also at this meeting that the university scholar Koji Yanwu once again proposed the issuance of war bonds. Because of the great efforts of the military department last year, it only sold less than 200,000 taels of silver, so Taiwei Li was not interested in this matter, and finally at the suggestion of Wang Anting, Emperor Tianyou ordered the matter to be handled by Prince Wucheng's mansion.
On the tenth day of the first month of March, Li Hun wrote to Emperor Tianyou to order Prince Wucheng to release his younger brother, and Emperor Tianyou allowed it.
On March 15, the envoy returned, saying that Li Shangshu was serious about his errands, and that he would return when he had completed the work at hand. At the same time, the envoy also brought back the list of meritorious contributions drawn up by the Ministry of War, with a total of more than 33,000 people living and dying, because the power to confer honors was in the hands of Emperor Daqin, and Emperor Tianyou gladly covered the emperor's treasure without the consent of the Taiwei!
Because this thick roster is not only about honor, but also involves a lot of real money. According to the military merit system of Great Qin, if the imperial court wants to complete the rewards and pensions for these 33,000 people, a total of 7.6 million taels of silver is needed......
In this matter, the household department acted very vigorously and resolutely, and in the afternoon of the same day, the only remaining 2,700,000 taels of silver in the state treasury were transferred to Jingshan Castle, which was forwarded by the members of the military department who worked there. At the same time, a white note was issued, promising to use this year's summer tax to pay off the outstanding 3.9 million taels of silver.
Li Hun was shocked and immediately sent troops to chase him, but he was blocked by the Jingshan army that was waiting for him, so he could only return in a daze.
Unangry, he went to the household department to ask the master the next day, saying, "Since the Holy Lord has entrusted the power of the military department to my Taiwei Mansion, why do you dare to allocate the reward to Jingshan City? ’
Qian Weiyong, the secretary of the household department, replied impeccably, and said: "According to the law, all rewards for military merits are sent to the military department by the head of the household department, and the military department is signed and forwarded by the military department. Of course, we have to go to Jingshan City to find Li Shangshu to use the seal. ”
Only then did Li Hun know that with the departure of the military officials, he could no longer get a copper plate from the treasury to arm his troops.
In late March, rumors began to circulate in the Zhongdu Prefecture that the Qi State had sent several envoys to request the return of His Majesty Emperor Zhaowu, but the new monarch of Heaven blessed the new monarch in order to sit on the throne and strictly ordered the front line not to contact the envoys of the Qi State. Later, the people of Qi still released His Majesty Zhaowu, and Emperor Tianyou instructed Prince Wucheng to secretly escort him back to Beijing, and put him under house arrest in the deep palace, not allowing anyone to contact him.
Fueled by well-intentioned people, the rumors spread more and more fiercely, so much so that the courtiers also tried to write a letter, asking the emperor to clarify the facts and set the record straight. But Emperor Tianyou's attitude was extremely ambiguous, he neither denied it nor made any statement, he even had nothing to do with himself, and sat back and watched the rumors rampant.
On the morning of the sixth day of the fourth lunar month, the officials of Li Hun and his family officially sent a message to Emperor Tianyou, demanding a thorough investigation of the loss of the Tiger Prison Pass and the whereabouts of His Majesty. Emperor Tianyou couldn't refuse this trick, so he had to order Yousi to step up the investigation. Li Hun believed that the matter involved the military and should be tried by the Taiwei Mansion, while the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate held that all lawsuits for breaking the prison should be tried by the Three Law Divisions. In the end, the dispute could not be resolved, so I had to agree that the two parties would meet and hold the court on the same day.
During this sensitive period, the eldest prince ended the rectification of the Zhendong Army and returned to the central capital on the first day of the fourth month.
Almost at the same time, Taiwei Li recalled his only remaining son, Li Sihai, as well as his wife and children......
"The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings......" Putting down the latest file, Qin Lei sighed and got up with his hands.
There is a saying that 'I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain', Qin Lei, who jumped out of the middle capital, has a clearer and more thorough understanding of what has happened recently than the adults in the capital......
With the big gift he gave, Emperor Tianyou decisively transferred the surplus wealth in the treasury, cutting off Li Hun's delusion of continuing to suck the country and damaging the public and private interests. And Li Hun also knew that as soon as Qin Lei came back, Emperor Tianyou finally had a backer, and he would no longer let him do whatever he wanted as before.
The so-called rumors of 'Emperor Zhaowu being imprisoned' are nine out of ten the masterpieces of Old Man Li, in order to make a stink and bring down the two brothers Emperor Tianyou and Qin Lei.
When he saw that Emperor Tianyou's reaction was weak and weak, Li Hun thought that this was an opportunity, so he mobilized the officials to open the review of the case of the 'Tiger Prison Pass', all he did was to pull out the radish and bring up the mud, and finally splash the dirty water on the Qin brothers.
Seeing the turmoil in the central capital, Qin Lei received secret orders from the Empress Dowager and Emperor Tianyou one after another, asking him not to act rashly, not to return to Beijing without authorization, and to step up military training in the south.
Knowing that the second brother and grandmother must have a plan, but they don't know what the specific content is, this kind of powerful feeling is really terrible.
Annoyed, Qin Lei couldn't sit still, he got up and left the study, and returned to the musk pavilion where Ruolan lived. When he entered the house, he saw Shiyun talking to Ruolan on the bed, while Yongfu was teasing Bao'er in the crib.
Walking straight in, Qin Lei was lying on the side of the small bed, shaking a delicate rattle with a grimace, teasing Bao'er and saying: "Obediently call Daddy......" provoked several women in the room to cover their mouths and laugh: "It's only a full moon and can speak, isn't that a fairy?" ”
The youngest daughter already knew how to recognize people, and when she saw Qin Lei, she couldn't stop giggling, and stretched out a pair of pink little hands to catch the rattle. As soon as he saw his daughter's cute appearance, Qin Lei's worries disappeared suddenly, and he reached out to pick up his daughter, carefully holding it in front of him, 'Bao, Bei', but he was reluctant to kiss it...... It's not that he doesn't want to, but the brush-like beard on his lips makes the little baby cry every time, and he doesn't dare to try again.
One night, after the ceremony of Zhou Gong, Qin Lei remembered this question and suddenly asked Shiyun: "Does my beard pierce people?" Shiyun nodded with a smile and said coquettishly: "Steel needles are general." ”
"Then you still let me kiss?" Qin Lei couldn't help but apologize.
"Endure the ......," Shiyun mosquito chirped.
"You don't blame me?" Qin Lei asked innocently.
"It's strange if you don't kiss...... "The little lady Xia Fei said with her cheeks.
