Chapter 52

After hearing Qin mubai's words, Qin Tong and Qin bin looked at each other with astonishment. Qin Shubao stroked his beard and laughed.

"Did you both hear that? Sanro has a lot of insight. " Qin Shubao nodded and praised, "my father has taken these problems into consideration. There is a reason why I show my heart to you today. To be sure, it's not so easy to be a father now even if you want to come back. I don't think it's good for the emperor to give me a small official position for my father's influence and past achievements in the army, or at least a general of the third grade or the commander of the impeachment party. But in this way, it is bound to conflict with the military power of Li Ji and others, affecting the old military pattern and balance. Therefore, unless there is a sudden rise of war and the army of the Tang Dynasty is temporarily organized, it will be possible for the father to take the initiative to rejoin the army. "

"That's what my father said." Qin mubai said, "but when there is a war, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will assemble and form a group. There will be a group of" marching roads "in wartime. At that time, there will be a lot of marching road managers (equivalent to the front-line commander of the field army). At that time, it was the best time for my father to come back

"What Sanlang said coincides with being a father." Qin Shubao nodded and said with a smile, "you three brothers are all working in the palace. The news must be well-informed. From today on, you all pay close attention to military developments and report back to me at any time. "

"Yes, father!" The three brothers embraced the promise.

"Especially Saburo." Qin Shubao said, "when you are around the emperor every day, the news you hear is the fastest and most accurate. As long as it doesn't leak the secrets of the imperial court and won't cause the emperor's punishment, you must inform me as soon as you have any news. Don't let your father down

"Yes, father." Qin mubai bowed his hand to answer the promise, thinking: my father is undoubtedly the most trustworthy person now.

After the family dinner, Qin Shubao, who was in a good mood and high spirits, specially asked Qin mubai to play the lute for his family's entertainment. He said that he didn't expect that his apprentices were all popular in the capital now - the name of the blind Banshee had even been heard of hiding at home for her father. She's a nice girl. What's more, why did Wu Meiniang go into business? She is my Qin family's daughter-in-law at least. How can she really go to the public and become a businessman?

Qin mubai didn't say anything more. After the two elder brothers left, he explained the secret to Qin Shubao.

After hearing this, Qin Shubao just shook his head: "it's the God who is playing tricks on people."

Qin mubai chewed the meaning of his father's words carefully. He always felt that he was not so satisfied with Wu Meiniang's daughter-in-law. It is not surprising that in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, businessmen are always humble and have no status. It's just like in modern society, the children of an official family have to marry an uneducated local girl from a remote rural area. Although the slogan of love freedom is loud, some people attach great importance to the right family. In the age of the Tang Dynasty, which attaches great importance to the family background, not to mention.

"When things turn for the better, it's better for her to stop doing business. Although my Qin family is not very rich, they are not short of money to support her. " Qin Shubao said.

"Well, now that Meiniang hasn't come to the door, I will make a decision on this matter. Don't worry, father Qin mubai can only reply in this way, and use a strategy to slow down the war. After more than a thousand years of generation gap, many ideas are deeply rooted in Qin Shubao's mind. Although he is a more open-minded father, it is unrealistic for him to suddenly change the concept he has formed for decades.

"Well, no more." Qin Shubao patted Qin mubai on the shoulder with a smile, "Sanlang, you are busy now. It's rare to go home. Have a good rest at home and spend more time with your mother and younger sister. These three months, they want to kill you

"I know." Qin Mu Bai smiles and says, "I haven't learned martial arts and shooting skills with my father in three months, and I miss it very much. I've heard two elder brothers say that my father must have made great progress in studying Tai Chi Qin spears at home all day. I'm just trying to ask for advice on cheating teachers! "

"Ha ha! What are you waiting for! Now that we are drunk, let's go and have a fight Qin Shubao immediately came to the spirit, eyes show light, God caiyiyi said, "you still don't say. The more I study Taijiquan, the more profound and refined I feel. The boat is rising high, and I'm constantly improving the Taiji Qin spear. It's much more powerful than three months ago. Come on, Sanlang. I'll teach you as soon as I'm my father! "

Qin mubai was embarrassed: I said casually, you are serious I'll be beaten as soon as I get home!

Father and son came to the backyard polo field, as usual on the horse than the gun fight. Qin Shubao is not a boaster. He hasn't seen him for three months. His marksmanship is obviously very advanced, and he has reached an unpredictable situation. Originally, Qin mubai's martial arts skills were very good. After three months of training, he also worked hard and improved greatly. However, after several rounds of fighting with my father, I was easily knocked down and completely defeated.

"It's a mountain and a mountain high! I don't know how many years of hard work it will take me to reach my father's level! " Qin mubai thought to himself with a bitter smile.

"Saburo, this shooting skill can be improved not only by practice." Qin Shubao said, "the most powerful shooting method in the world is the shooting method of killing people. Only when you have gone through countless rounds on the battlefield, experienced life and death personally, and killed countless people, and you are still alive, can you really accomplish your marksmanship! ""Well I know, father Qin Mu Bai could only shake his head and sigh, thinking: it seems that my so-called "general" who grew up in the peaceful times can't catch up with my father who has been fighting in the battlefield for half his life! What skills are more powerful than those honed in actual combat?

After practicing martial arts, Qin mubai returns to his room. His mother and younger sister have been waiting for him here for a long time. The three of them chatted late into the night, and Qin mubai finally got the most stable sleep in recent months.

The next morning, Qin mubai, who had a long sleep, pushed open the window of the room and saw little sister Shuanger sitting alone on the small stone bench in the yard, with a basin of red flowers in her hand, staring at it.

"Frost."

"Third brother, are you awake?" Frost son returned to God, to Qin Mu Bai exhibition Yan a smile, came up to knock, "let me in quickly!"

Qin mubai opened the door to let her in, and was immediately attracted by the flowers she was holding: "Shuanger, how did you raise such a pot of flowers?"

"Do you know the third brother?" Frost son made a silent action, quickly closed the door, holding the flower into the room to put down, hehe said with a smile, "dragon claw flower, beautiful!"

Qin mubai looked at this pot of dazzling red and monstrous flowers and nodded: "I know more than recognition. I also know many legends about this kind of flower. I also know that this kind of flower is an unknown symbol now. "

"Yes, so I raised it secretly, for fear that my parents would scold me when they knew, hehe!" Frost son wiped to wipe a nose, a little elated smile way, "but I know three elder brothers are always the most tolerant also most love me of, certainly won't scold me?"

"You're a girl. You're good at bragging and blocking people's mouths." Qin mubai laughed and said, "I just want to remind you that the stem of this flower is poisonous. Be careful of the poison."

"It doesn't matter." Frost son sits down, holding cheek, leisurely way, "but every time I see this flower, I think of a person. At that time, we often looked for this kind of flowers in the shade of the mountains outside Chang'an city. Now, it can't be any more. "

Obviously, frost is thinking about Li Ke again. Qin mubai sat down beside him with a smile and said, "Shuanger, I'll tell you a story. Do you know the name of this flower besides dragon claw flower? "

"Yes, there are so many names." Shuanger said, "there are cockroach flower, crow garlic, Diyou flower, Youming flower, Shanwu flower, the flower of life and death All in all, it's all ominous names, huh! I really can't understand why such a beautiful flower has been given such an ominous name? Is it because he often drives in a cemetery like that? People are really unfair to it

Qin mubai nodded and smile: "it also has a name, manzhushahua. Have you heard of it? "

"Well, it's a strange name. I haven't heard of it."

"There's a story." Qin mubai said with a smile, "it's said that it's a magic flower growing in the three rivers of hell. Its peculiar fragrance can awaken people's memory of previous life. It's in full bloom, as red as blood. We follow the guidance of this flower to the nether hell. Its color is like blood. It is breathtaking and amazing. Either because its deep bright red color reminds people of blood and death, or because its bulbs contain highly toxic, manjushahua's beauty is the ominous beauty of monstrosity, disaster, death and separation. That's why so many ominous names have been given to him. "

"Third brother, I know you're talking about a fairy tale, but Is beauty also wrong? " Shuanger frowned and asked.

"Good question. Beauty is certainly not wrong. " Qin mubai stroked his sister's head and said in a soft voice, "just like the feeling between you and Li Ke, it's very pure and simple. But this feeling is not blessed, a lover can also become a family member. So you think the fate of this flower is very similar to you, so you like it, right? "

"Third brother How clever you are Frost son bowed his head, slightly nodded, "why, there are always so many unsatisfactory things in the world?"

"Third brother, I'll tell you another story. It's also about manjushahua. " Qin mubai said, "it is said that a long time ago, there was a place full of manjushahua. Guarding here are two goblins, one is the flower demon named Manzhu, the other is the leaf demon named shahua. They have been waiting for manjusha for thousands of years, but they have never met each other, because when manjusha blooms, there are no leaves, when there are leaves, there are no flowers, and flowers and leaves never appear at the same time. They miss each other crazily and are tormented by the pain. Finally one day, they decided to meet secretly against God's will. That time, the manjushahua red and gorgeous flowers were set off by the eye-catching green, and they were particularly beautiful. "

"How I wish we were the two brave flower demons and leaf demons, even if it was just an instant reunion..." Frost children's eyes are misty, gently choked.

"Then God blamed it. Man Zhu and Sha Hua are put into reincarnation and cursed to never be together, suffering in the world from generation to generation. Since then, manjushahua, also known as the other shore flower, means the flower in heaven. The shape of the flower is like a palm praying to God. This kind of flower is blooming on the road of huangquan. Every time Manzhu and shahua reincarnate, when they smell the fragrance of Manzhu shahua on the road of huangquan, they will remember their past lives, and then swear not to separate, and fall into the cycle of curse again and again without complaint or regret. ""What a great and faithful spirit, what a tragic and beautiful story Why are goblins more persistent and brave than human beings? " Frost son wiped eyelid for a while, murmur a way, "still have, why God must break up them, let them together, what can hinder him again?"

Qin mubai gently patted her back to comfort her and said: "frost, the fact is often so cruel and helpless. God has God's ideas, and there are rules in the world. Whether it's goblins or us, we are very small and helpless in front of God and the rules. "

Shuang'er bit her lips and let her tears pour out. She wet her face and converged from her jaw.

"Although I can't fight, I'd rather learn the reincarnation of the demon falling into the curse!" Frost suddenly said, "it's just a pity Even if I am Manzhu, he is not Sha Hua. "

After that, Shuanger hugs the flowerpot tightly and sobs.

"Silly girl, don't be so sad and pessimistic. You forget, you have three brothers! Third brother will find a way to help you. "

"Thank you, brother Woo Hoo Frost is still crying.

Qin mubai was trying his best to comfort the weeping little sister when the door was knocked and a gentle voice said: "third brother, how did you bully the little sister to cry in the early morning Eh, how can dragon claw flower, such an ominous flower, be planted at home

Frost son is startled and jumps up in a hurry, holding the flowerpot to run out, running and saying: "second brother, you can't betray me, or I will never pay attention to you again, and I won't make snacks for you!"

This is Qin bin, the second elder brother. Seeing this, Qin bin shook his head and said with a smile: "this girl has learned to threaten people Well, how did you sleep yesterday

"Very good." Qin mubai welcomed the second elder brother into the room, sat down, made tea, and said, "the second elder brother is so early today. Don't you have to go to hongwenguan?"

there are few things in Hongwen hall. Qin binduan sat down, tasted the tea gently and politely, and said, "third brother, you are here specially."

"Second brother, do you have any advice?" Qin mubai asked.

"No. I've been asked to send you an invitation. Third brother, please look. " After that, Qin Bin took out a beautiful green invitation and handed it over.

This kind of color invitation is specially used for calling friends to play.

Qin Mu Bai unfolded a look, could not help but slightly wring his brow: "the king of Wei invited me to go to his house to have a banquet with you?"

"Exactly." Qin bin smiles deeply and nods.
