King Wu's house was almost completely busy. It was finished at dawn, and all the people were ready to go. Li Ke asked everyone to have a rest for an hour or two, and set out in the afternoon.
In fact, Qin mubai is not busy. His subordinates take care of some chores. He took a nap and went back to Qin's house at dawn to say goodbye to his family.
Qin Shubao still got up early and practiced martial arts and horseback riding in the backyard. Qin mubai came to find him in the backyard and told him about going to Jiangzhou.
"That's good. You can leave Chang'an for a while." Qin Shubao didn't say much, "as a father, I just want to remind you that there is no sense of superiority when Beijing officials are outside. Those state and county officials have been together for a long time, deeply intertwined with each other. It's also very powerful to line up foreigners. Although they were respectful and obedient to the people from the imperial court on the surface, they also had their own countermeasures in private. People in the officialdom have their own ways of survival and skills of being officials, which is not easy to deal with. You are going out to work with li ke this time, which represents the royal dignity. Be careful not to make mistakes. "
"The child saves, the father is at ease." Qin Mu Bai bowed his hand to answer the words, and then talked to Qin Shu Bao about the idea of bringing the demon girl and the orphans to live at home.
Qin Shubao thought a little and nodded: "yes. I've heard about this demon girl for a long time. How can she sit back and let her be defiled by a prodigal son like Yuanchang? Take her and the orphans! Although the Qin family is small, they can live in it. Although he was incompetent as a father, Yuan Chang, the king of Han Dynasty, did not have the courage to act recklessly in Qin's house, where he had twelve halberds. It's a good thing to take care of the orphan girl. I have nothing to do with your mother and sister, and I can help you take care of those orphans. "
"Thank you, father!" Qin mubai was greatly relieved. I didn't expect that my father was always cold and aloof, but his heart was so kind and full of justice. With him, you can rest assured!
As a matter of fact, Li Shimin has always been very good with his old ministers. Even if he has retired to the second tier, he has never ignored him, and he has never done anything to "remove the grind and kill the donkey". In Zhenguan Dynasty, there were dozens of meritorious officials who founded the country, and later there were 24 meritorious officials who were famous in Lingyan Pavilion.
It is precisely because of the Emperor Li Shimin that the founding officials of the Tang Dynasty did not "bow and hide the birds, but cook the cunning rabbits and running dogs". Although some people ascend to the top (such as Fang Xuanling and Chang sun Wuji) and others gradually fade out of the stage (Qin Shubao is the representative), as long as the Emperor Li Shimin is alive, these founding ministers will never be forgotten and will not be reduced to a vulnerable group.
Moreover, Li Shimin, the emperor, has always been the most disgusted with the imperial family's bullying of the officials, workers and common people. If such a thing happens, instead of protecting his weaknesses, he is more strict with the members of the royal family and implements double standards.
Therefore, although Li Yuanchang, the king of Han Dynasty, was rampant in Chang'an city because of the patronage of the former Emperor Gaozu, he did not have the courage to provoke such a founding father as Qin Shubao. Otherwise, if the emperor knows, and does not ask who is right and who is wrong, the emperor will surely make fun of Li Yuanchang first.
Later, Qin mubai said good-bye to his mother and sister again. After a brief salute at home, he was ready to go to the Wu palace and set out with most of the people. Before leaving, Qin mubai left his family affairs to his sister Shuanger. Although the new family has not lived for one night, it is also a family. Although the sparrow is small and has five dirty organs, there are several people in the family to manage. Yiying's money, goods and contract account books are now taken care of by the little housekeeper Shuanger.
Shuanger was a little reluctant to leave Qin mubai, but she was also a little proud and happy: "hee hee! In the absence of the third brother. I am the master of your family! Whenever I have free time, I'll go to your house to take care of you. By the way, I'll take Yaoer and those little girls to your house. Do as you like! "
Qin Mu Bai shook his head and said with a smile, "it's up to you. As long as you don't burn a fire. "
Mother Liu's smile pats frost son's head: "you this wild wench! Your brother asked you to look after him, not to bully him. By the way, if they are not used to living here, you can invite them to live with your brother. Anyway, your brother is not at home now, and the house is empty. Your father He's too serious. I'm worried about the demons. They're not used to it
"I see, mother!" Shuanger chuckles happily, "if we go to my brother's house, we will be really free! Nobody cares
Qin mubai shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "there is no tiger in the mountain, and the monkey is the king. OK, I'm going. Mother, little sister, take care of yourself
Later, Qin mubai arrived at King Wu's residence. They were already having breakfast, and soon they were ready to go. Qin mubai put on his horse, and Li Ke walked in the front, led hundreds of troops out of the palace, and walked on the Chang'an Street.
"Mubai, let's go to the west market. Take Zhuque street Li Ke said.
"I understand." Qin mubai smiles knowingly. Li Ke's intention is very obvious. In fact, it's the nearest way to go out of Chang'an from King Wu's residence. But he deliberately wanted to walk around the west market and Zhuque street, no doubt in order to let more people know, he Li Ke ordered to travel. Back on the stage.Sure enough, when the citizens of Chang'an saw this dazzling team from a distance, they all looked forward to it. Li Ke, dressed in a formal purple robe of Prince Lulong and wearing the Sanliang Jinxian crown, walked in the front with a radiant and elegant appearance. Qin mubai was fully dressed. Gold armour, Kirin robe, sword hanging from the waist, and the Qin family's "golden spear carved with tiger's head", which is eight feet long and weighs dozens of Jin, is on display for the first time.
Behind them. They are Li Ke's "King Wu of the Tang Dynasty" flag and the Qilin battle flag for Baiqi. Whether Baiqi or private soldiers of the Wu palace, they are all high headed horses, high-class bright armor and scarlet robes.
Such a group of people walking on the street, it is difficult to think about it.
Seeing them coming from a distance, the citizens consciously stood on both sides of the road. There was a murmur in the crowd.
"Is that King Wu? It's been a long time since he made such a fuss. If you've been hiding for a long time, where are you going this time? "
"It's supposed to be a mission, otherwise it won't be so publicized. Last time I heard that he was demoted to the post of governor and returned to Chang'an to introspect himself behind closed doors. It should have been more than half a year, right? Now it's back on the table. "
"It is said that the king of Wei and the crown prince had a close relationship. Everyone should forget the king of Wu. I didn't expect him to come out of the mountain again It's going to be more lively in Chang'an city! "
"Well, isn't that Baiqi? This time, the king of Wu did the errand, and the emperor even sent a hundred horsemen to accompany him. It seems that he is going to do something important! It seems that the emperor did not forget King Wu. I sent him all my own guards. I've never heard of such preferential treatment from the prince or the king of Wei. "
……
They didn't walk fast. They swaggered in Chang'an City and made a scene deliberately. Qin mubai thought in his heart that Li Ke was announcing his "high-profile return" to everyone. For more than half a year, his palace has been as quiet as dead water, without any waves. It seems that he can't bear loneliness. Moreover, the former officials who had made friends with him all left him when he was in trouble, and each of them turned to the prince or the king of Wei, which perhaps made him a little annoyed. Now it's on purpose. It means to hit them in the face. Or it may show its banner and deliberately recruit another group of people to come back and work again.
It seems that Li Ke is not really willing to "be a prince of peace" as he said. In fact, he is a little ambitious.
After leaving Mingde gate, Li Ke let out a breath. His face was quite relaxed, as if he had put down a big stone in his heart.
"Mubai, do you know what my mood is now?" Li Ke asked suddenly.
Qin Mu Bai smile, said: "happy horse hoof disease."
"No. No Li Ke breathed a long breath again and said, "I feel like I've suddenly regained my freedom after being locked up in a cage for a long time. But for some time I didn't breathe the air outside Chang'an City, and I didn't see the magnificent mountains and rivers. I just looked up at the city of Chang'an and Qinchuan. It's really refreshing and refreshing. It's a boost to my spirit. "
"Fish go into the sea, birds go to heaven, that's about it." Qin mubai said with a smile, "Your Highness, the opportunity is rare. This time, I went to Jiangzhou. We must do our best. What's more, it should be done well. If there are any mistakes, all previous achievements will be wasted and the consequences will be unimaginable. "
"Of course I understand." Li Ke twisted his brow and said. "There is no justice in the world. Some people do wrong things all their lives, but if they do one right thing, they will always be right; some people do good things all their lives, but if they do one wrong thing, they will always be wrong. Mubai, you and I are probably the last kind of people. "
"That's true." Qin mubai answered with a light smile and thought: Li Ke finally let out his dissatisfaction. Is he insinuating too much Li Chengqian? Lu Lu is a man of no action and a dandy with many bad deeds. But because he is the first son born to empress Chang sun, he has become the prince without dispute. Li Ke is generally recognized as the most like the emperor and the most capable prince, but because he was born a commoner, he was destined to have no chance with the crown prince. If he wants to "compete for reserves", his blood and origin alone is an almost insurmountable mountain.
He is right in comparing me to his kind. Baiqi is a bodyguard. It's right to do a good job. When the emperor and members of the royal family are safe, the work is in place. But as long as you make a mistake once, it will be irreparable. This time, I didn't take the initiative to make a mistake, because Princess Gaoyang "framed" and entered a dangerous situation, it can be seen. This seemingly boundless Baiqi envoy is actually a thankless and high-risk job.
"Your Highness, general Qin, the disaster is like fire. You'd better leave as soon as possible." Quan Wanji came forward and said.
"Well, I won't say any more - pass on the king's order, gallop to Jiangzhou, and go ahead as fast as possible!"
