In the evening, the tired birds return to the forest, and the setting sun pours on the green and gloomy mountain forest, just like putting a colorful neon dress on this quiet paradise.
Qin mubai and Li Ke walk in front of each other. Yao'er, shuang'er and a few orphans hold hands with each other. Then, the servants of the Wu palace follow slowly in the carriage. A group of people walk on the shady mountain road, and walk and chat.
"Mubai, what's your plan?" Li Ke said, "with respect. According to the current situation, it seems that you are not suitable to stay in Baiqi and work as an official in the palace. Although my father has always been broad-minded and won't really hate you or fear you, this time Gaoyang's affair is so big and there are so many rumors. My father may think about changing your job for the sake of avoiding suspicion. You might as well take the initiative. "
"Your Highness is right. I've thought about it. " Qin mubai said. "Baiqi started at the beginning of the construction. It was an attempt. Although the emperor doubted that there was no need to employ people, some troubles could not be avoided. There are so many women in the harem that it's hard to avoid gossip from the outside world. In addition, this time, the incident of Princess Gaoyang triggered I think. The Emperor may even disband Baiqi. "
"That's not the case." Li Ke said, "Baiqi is a very good army. In private, my father praised Baiqi and you many times. It's just that it's in the limelight right now. You might as well avoid it for a while and then go back to Baiqi. After all, it was not easy for the emperor to find a suitable envoy. He doesn't really want to get rid of you. I think that's what he meant when he gave you leave this time. I hope you can stay out of the limelight and wait until things calm down. "
Qin mubai thought about it in his heart. Li Ke took the initiative to say this to me. Is there something out of it? It means that he has already thought of a place for me? Then why don't I take the initiative to tell him?
"Now I can only stay at home and have a rest. There is no other good place for me." Qin mubai said casually, "if your Highness has a way, you might as well point out the next time?"
"Don't say it. It's true." Li Ke smiles mysteriously.
"Is it?" Qin Mu Bai blinked a few eyes, "what's the way out?"
"Today, I was summoned by the Mongolian father and went to the palace." Li Ke said, "originally, my father intended to let me go back to the stage in Gaoyang's marriage. Now such a row, the marriage has to be postponed. So my father showed me another way. Just this morning, the Jiangzhou prefecture government made an urgent report, which highlighted the serious flood disaster and the shortage of manpower in the prefecture government to provide disaster relief. It asked the imperial court for help. So your majesty is going to let me take the lead in this matter. "
"It's a dry season with little rain in late summer and early autumn. How can it be flooded at this time?" Qin mubai asked.
"I don't know now. It is said that it is not the flood of the Yellow River, but the breach of a lake dike. " Li Ke said, "we have to wait for the past investigation before we know what the specific situation is. The immediate priority is disaster relief. Your majesty has issued a military order to enlist 5000 soldiers from Jiangzhou Prefecture and nearby prefectures and counties to assemble in Jiangzhou on the eve of the morning. It was Ben Wang who was sent to preside over the overall situation, along with several officials from the Ministry of work and the Ministry of household affairs. "
Qin mubai thought a little and said, "Your Highness means to take me with you?"
Li Ke slightly smile, ha ha way: "not with, is please. You're a grand hundred horsemen envoy, the commander of the Royal imperial commander. Can you go anywhere? Just in the dialogue with my father, I vaguely heard the overtones in his words. He said that floods broke out in Jiangzhou in autumn, causing disaster to the people. It must be the punishment of the emperor for his immorality. Therefore, it is up to the emperor to go to the disaster relief and pacify the people, and pray for sin. But now the country is full of affairs and the government affairs are busy, so I went on his behalf. I also said, "wherever I go, I'll be as respectful as my parents." the implication is to send me out as an imperial envoy. "
"I see." Qin mubai said, "since they are Imperial Envoys, they are usually accompanied by bodyguards, usually from qianniuwei and jinwuwei. And you're the prince and the royal family, so it's very appropriate to send a team of Baiqi to go with you. "
"You are so clever." Li Ke said with a smile, "this is the voice of the emperor's words. Although he didn't explicitly say that he would send you with me, everyone knows your personal relationship with me. Isn't that what he meant when he told me this on purpose? Flood control is a long-term task. In addition to flood control and disaster relief, it is also necessary to build water conservancy and treat the victims. It is estimated that it will take three months to settle the homes of the victims and redistribute the farmland and livestock. If you lead the soldiers to leave with me, wouldn't it suit the emperor's wishes? You have not been expelled from Baiqi. And let you leave Chang'an for the time being, the land of right and wrong
"Not bad." Qin Mu Bai blinked a few eyes, thought a little in his heart, and said, "then I should find an excuse to go to the palace to see the emperor as soon as possible?"
"Yes." Li Ke said. "Besides, don't take the initiative to talk about the flood in Jiangzhou. The emperor will take the initiative to talk to you."
"I see." Qin mubai nodded in response and said: Li Ke is very similar to Li Shimin. He's very clever, and he's very deep. He is able to understand people's heart and deeply darken the imperial mind. He didn't let me take the initiative to talk to the emperor. He just didn't want the emperor to know that I had a private discussion with him and had already discussed the matter properly. Pretend to be ignorant. Everything will go with the flow. Otherwise, the emperor would be afraid of both Li Ke and me. It's a great taboo for the king to presume the meaning of holiness.A minister can be competent and clever. But we must not be too clever to pick out the strategies and ideas hidden in the king's heart. Otherwise, the king will lose face. Although he may praise the minister on the surface, he is really afraid of him in his heart. Because he would feel like a king in front of this minister. Seems very silly and naive, nothing can be hidden. In other words, an ordinary person will also hurt his self-esteem. Can a king ignore his majesty? ——Isn't that why Yang Xiu was killed by Cao Cao for being so clever?
After walking two or three miles, Li Ke stopped the crowd. Said: "demon girl, you have come out a long way, go back quickly, it will be dark."
"Well, it's OK." The demon son laughs a way. "It's the same for me when it's dark and when it's light."
"But it's different for others, ha ha! Some villains like to come out and do evil things when the night is dark and the wind is high. " Li Ke said with a smile, "you'd better go back."
"Well, that's fine. Everybody. I won't be far away. " The demon son's salute and farewell, those little orphans are also very polite to follow.
"Go back with elder sister Yao'er. I'll see you again tomorrow when I have time." Qin Shuanger said to the little girls with a smile.
They all split up here. Qin mubai and his younger sister ride on the horse together. Li Ke gets on the car. Yaoer takes a group of little girls back to lichenju.
It was getting dark when I got home. Qin mubai and his sister get off their horses and come to the lobby to greet their parents. However, they find Qin Shubao sitting in the hall. Next there is a red robed official.
"Mubai is back." Qin Shubao raised his finger to the red robed official. "This is the doctor of the household department. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
The red robed official quickly got up and saluted: "I've met general Qin in Su Yuan's humble position."
Hubu doctor, from five grades, is slightly lower than Qin mubai's grade. In fact, it's even. However, because Qin mubai had such a family background, Qin Shubao was present, and the great reputation of Bai Qishi made Su Yuan's courtesy very considerate.
"Su Lang Zhong is too polite." Qin mubai returned the ceremony and said, "the doctor came to me. What's your opinion?"
Su Yuan said, "the Ministry of household has received your Majesty's edict. He said he would send a house to general Qin. It took me three days to buy it, so I came to inform the general to check it. Unexpectedly, the general is not at home all day, so I have to wait here. "
"I see. I'm going out with my little sister today, which makes the doctor wait here for a long time. It's rude Qin Mu Bai said with a smile, "it's late now. How about tomorrow?"
"The house is very close. It's just a street away from Qin's house. It's only a long walk." Su Yuan said with a smile, "why don't you accept it today? Everything has been sorted out and you can move in immediately."
"Really? Then go Qin mubai said happily.
Anyway, if you have your own house, you will be able to set up your own house and have private space. It's pleasant to live with my father in Qin's house, but I always feel a little stiff.
"General, please."
Qin mubai went to Qin Shubao and said, "father, would you like to have a look with your mother?"
"I won't go. Ask your mother and sister." Qin Shubao said calmly.
"Not bad." Qin mubai stepped back. I thought to myself that the pride of my father's ultimate warrior would never go away. He may have thought that the reward given by the emperor this time was not due to the fact that the reward was not justified, but had a different purpose, so he didn't like the house very much.
But Liu Shi and Shuang Er didn't know that. They were so happy to learn that Qin mubai was going to settle down in a new house. They didn't need Qin mubai to invite them. They took the initiative to follow Qin mubai and went to their new house under the guidance of Su Yuan.
Qin mubai's new home was not far from Qin's house. It was just a street away, and it didn't take long to arrive.
The gate is brand new. The lion dragon stone carving at the gate is wrapped with red silk. Although it is not as grand as xunmen Qin's, it is also neat.
The door is still painted and open to the outside. Su Yuan first step into, clap hands, left and right out of a row of men and women to greet: "welcome the master."
Qin mubai was stunned: "who are these people?"
Su Yuan arched his hand and said with a smile: "these six men, namely, the handyman, the cook, the porter, the gardener and the groom, plus four maidservants, are all the people of general Qin. For those who are the independent gatekeepers of the five grade capital officials, they are given six to ten servants, which are made by the laws and regulations of this dynasty. "
