Chapter 322

Thinking, Qin mubai wandered around the imperial garden. It was already winter, and most of the plants were decaying. Planting grass in the imperial garden was not too prosperous, which had a bleak meaning.

The imperial palace is very familiar to Qin mubai. He and Princess Gaoyang left a lot of footprints and laughter here when they first met. It's good to revisit my hometown. He sat down by a gallery and pavilion, with a rare peace of mind.

After listening to master Shan's talk that day, Qin mubai felt that his state of mind was peaceful and peaceful, and people seemed to settle down. Originally, Qin mubai had little interest in Buddhism and Taoism, but now he thinks that religion is not good for nothing. It might be a good idea to have a chat with master Qingshan if you are impatient and bored.

Is sitting alone thinking about some things, behind someone calling: "third brother? Is that the third brother? "

Qin mubai looked back and saw a very tall figure, which was his eldest brother Qin Tong.

This half brother, but I haven't seen him for a long time. Qin Mu white up to meet up, respectfully clasped: "Yudi, see you brother!"

In the Tang Dynasty, filial piety is the most important. If the father is not there, the elder brother is like the father, so it is necessary to uphold the propriety. Moreover, it has been several days since he returned to Beijing, and Qin mubai has never come to visit his two brothers. He is somewhat ashamed.

Qin Tong is a typical natural warrior. He is a rough man and laughs wildly: "ha ha! What a third brother

He happily came up, hugged Qin mubai's fists, and said with a smile: "I've heard that you've come back long ago, but I can't get rid of you when you're on duty in the palace. Today's ten day holiday, I'm going to make an appointment with your second brother to come home together and meet your mother. Unexpectedly, I met you here. It's very nice. How nice

"I'm ashamed of you Qin mubai said, "it's been several days since I went back to Beijing, and I didn't take the initiative to visit the two brothers first."

"What do you mean, third brother?" With a wave of his hand, Qin Tong said with a smile, "now you are the most popular man in front of the emperor. You have to be his son-in-law again. There must be a lot of things inside and outside. I don't blame you. Just come back. Just come back. At the beginning, your second brother and I were going to Lanzhou together, but my father didn't agree, and I didn't dare to make a mistake. Now our brothers are together. When it comes to light

"That's it!" Qin mubai was also very happy. Pro or not, flesh and blood, pro brother is pro brother, between the total stronger than outsiders, there is no layer of estrangement.

The two brothers are both in high spirits, and they are going to talk with each other. They are going to Hongwen hall to invite Qin bin, the second child, to return home together for a happy gathering.

To the Wude Hall of Taiji palace is the place where the emperor usually goes to court and deals with political affairs. Hongwen hall is not far from here. The brothers were passing by when they met Li Shimin's Luan Jia. So he stood by the road to greet him.

Today, it's sunny in winter. Li Shimin's covered car also sees Qin mubai from a distance. He stopped to drive and waved to Qin mubai: "mubai, follow me to the imperial study. I'm just looking for you."

"I will comply with the order." Qin mubai answered the promise and said to Qin Tongdao, "brother, I'll come as soon as I go. You and the second brother are waiting for me in Hongwen hall."

"All right, you go!"

Qin mubai followed Li Shimin into the imperial study. A large stove rises in the room, and Chu suiliang, the living man, is also there to record Li Shimin's words and deeds. Several eunuchs bring a large number of memorials selected by the cabinet to put on the desk, and Li Shimin asks Qin mubai to serve and use ink.

When I used to be a hundred horse envoy, I did such a thing more than once. At that time, Li Shimin intended to cultivate Qin mubai's political talents and broaden his knowledge. Now it seems that the effect is not generally good. Today's story is very important. Qin mubai feels very familiar and kind. Chu suiliang used to do all this work, but now he sits aside and writes with a soft smile on his face.

Chu suiliang is a good person, worthy of friendship, Qin mubai has always thought so.

After criticizing the memorials for a while, Li Shimin didn't say much, but occasionally asked Qin mubai about his opinions on the memorials. He either listened to them or didn't listen to them, or refuted them or agreed with them. It's not so much a question as a "contest". In the past, it was in such criticism and debate that Qin mubai increased his talent and insight.

When the memorial was almost finished, Li Shimin breathed a sigh, put down his pen, prepared to have a rest, and took a walk in the room. Chu suiliang was still sitting and writing, recording the emperor's words and deeds.

Qin mubai saw that Li Shimin always wanted to talk and stopped talking, as if he was afraid of Chu suiliang, so he took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, I just wandered in the imperial garden. I see that I have a bleak meaning, which is quite different from the spring flowers and Autumn Moon. I can express my feelings in poems. If your majesty is interested, you may as well take a walk there or have a rest. "

"Good!" Li Shimin immediately took the message, turned around and said, "Chu suiliang, please sort out the memorial I just approved and take it to Hongwen hall and give it to Fang Xuanling."

"Yes." Chu suiliang answered the promise and went to collect the memorial with a smile to Qin mubai.

The two of them went out of the Wude hall and came to the imperial garden. After a few steps, Li Shimin told the eunuch maids he was following away and said, "mubai, I have something to ask you."

"Your Majesty, please."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "do you remember what I told you about making you Wang Fu, a child slave?""I remember. What happened?"

"It's like this. After the Spring Festival, the young slaves were 14 years old. As early as two years ago, he should have opened the government. I remember that he lost his mother when he was young, so I stayed with him for two more years to accompany his younger sister. But recently, I've been thinking about it. It's not the best way to keep him around. I'd better let him go out of the palace and live on his own. " Li Shimin said, "what do you think?"

Qin mubai was stunned for a moment: can you ask me about this? What a strange question It seems that Li Shimin is not willing to let Li Zhi leave the palace and start his own family. He wants to keep him in the back palace and dote on him. Is it difficult for someone to put pressure on the emperor to get Lizhi out of the palace?

Thinking of this, Qin mubai had a bright idea in his mind: it's possible!

Connecting with the scene when he went to the Wei government to see Li Jing, Qin mubai analyzed that there seemed to be a force beyond the control of the emperor on the court hall, which lost some balance. This was probably brought about by the dispute of seizing the throne, which in turn restricted the emperor's initiative in selecting successors. Otherwise, why is the emperor so anxious to push Qin mubai, a young man who has just entered the official career, to a higher position?

The purpose is not to balance the power balance above the court hall, so that he can control it easily?

This is the mental skill of the emperor.

After thinking about it, it seems that there will be no one else except changsun Wuji, who can make the power of chaotang unbalanced!

Only he, as Li Zhi's mother's uncle, is qualified to ask Li Zhi to go out and start his own family.

But what is his purpose?

Thinking of this, Qin Mu Bai couldn't help thinking: in history, isn't it the eldest grandson Wuji who vigorously supported his nephew Li Zhi to ascend the throne?

I see

"Your Majesty, I think..." Qin mubai considered the sentence for a while and said vaguely, "this is your Majesty's family business."

"Well, well said." Li Shimin also gave an ambiguous answer. The words suddenly changed, "it's family business, but aren't you my son-in-law? My son-in-law is better than half a son. Should I ask you? "

It seems that the emperor is determined to take this army. Qin mubai was a little helpless with a smile, but he also knew that after a long time of shirking the blame, it was time for him to answer. He said: "in fact, I was thinking that her Royal Highness the king of Jin is right, but if the princess of Jinyang left his brother, who grew up with him from childhood, she would be very lonely in the palace alone. In particular, Princess Jinyang is not in good health. If she is still in a bad mood, it is not a good thing for her! "

Li Shimin stopped at his feet for a moment, and his face showed a happy and grateful look. He gave a heartfelt smile: "so I said, if only you were my own son! It's good that you know how to think of the flesh and blood more than anyone else. "

Qin mubai grinned and said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to praise me. In fact, Wei Chen has been with the king of Jin and Princess of Jinyang for a long time. Knowing that they are affectionate, he didn't think much about it. If the king of Jin wanted to open his office, it would be no later than one or two years. It's not too late for Princess Jinyang to grow up and get better. "

Li Shimin nodded, "this is warm. I'll listen to you this time! "

"the royal highness of the younger generation, Princess of Jinyang, thanking my emperor!" Qin Mu Bai smiles and bows his hand.

"Ha ha, you boy!" Li Shimin was very comfortable with a smile. Like the two of you, he put on his shoulder and shook it hard. He whispered to him, "mubai, outside, you help me fight off the enemy and open up the territory; inside, you help me share my family affairs and solve my problems. You are really a lucky General of me! Those ministers, whether they are royal relatives or famous ministers or generals, are too selfish to take my feelings into consideration. It seems that I am not flesh and blood, or a son or a father. Sometimes I feel very cold. "

"Your Majesty, it's not easy to be a minister. It's not easy to be king. This micro minister knows better than anyone else. " Qin mubai said, "I'm a minister myself. Needless to say, when I was with your majesty for a long time, I had a deep understanding of your Majesty's distress! In fact, your majesty is probably the hardest person at the bottom of this day. "

"Ah! I am so relieved to have you With a deep sigh, Li Shimin said, "all the people in the world say that power is good, but we must not know that there is one division of power, one division of harm, and one division of height. No pain. The more you get, the more you lose. I am determined to be a good emperor. In fact, I have sacrificed a lot for this goal. Some ordinary people can easily enjoy the happiness and beauty, for me, it is simply unreachable luxury ah! Sometimes I'm tired and tired, let alone have a rest. I don't even have a bosom friend to talk about No one knows my sufferings! "

Qin Mu Bai said with a smile: "isn't the empress Yinde the bosom friend of your majesty?"

"Oh?" Li Shimin was stunned. Then he laughed and forced Qin mubai's shoulder to fall him down, "smelly boy, must be Gao Yang's silly girl told you? ha-ha! How dare you take charge of my private affairs

"Ha ha, your majesty, forgive me!" Qin mubai also laughed and turned to dodge from under Li Shimin's arm.

"Alas! Today's weather is really good, and I feel very happy! I haven't been so relaxed like today for a long time! Don't say, I haven't moved for some days - mubai, accompany me to shoot in huanglin garden of Daming Palace! " Li Shimin is in high spirits."I'll do it!"

"Be careful, don't let Wei Zheng know? ——Ha ha

"Don't worry. I'll arrange it. " Qin mubai retreated with a smile. Find the officers of Baiqi who are on duty nearby, ask them to get their hunting gear together, put them in the carriage and drag them out of the Xuanwu Gate first. Li Shimin also changed his martial clothes and rode out of Xuanwu Gate with Qin mubai and a team of Baiqi.

Hunting is the best entertainment in winter. Li Shimin, the horse emperor, has always had this hobby. It's just that Wei Zheng and others have been "criticizing and educating" him for this, so he has been very restrained in recent years. I'm in such a good mood today that I can't care more about it. Accompanied by Qin mubai and others, he had a good hunt and got a lot. For the first time, Li Shimin showed his excellent equestrian and martial arts skills in front of Qin mubai. Qin mubai's opinion. He will never lose to the generals like himself and Xue's brothers. At most, he is a little inferior to Xue Rengui's arrow.

By the time of his return, the sun was far west, and Li Shimin was quite relaxed. He talked with Qin mubai a lot about the current affairs of the country, national customs and family affairs. Even vaguely mentioned, Yin de imperial concubine can come back, he is actually very happy. It's just that I'm not willing to say it because of my face.

When we get to Xuanwu Gate. Li Shimin stopped his horse and let them wait in front of the door. Then he stood with Qin mubai and said, "mubai, in fact, I have been thinking about something. I want you to show your attitude today. "

"What is your majesty thinking?" Qin mubai asked.

"It's about the vacancy of the left back general." Li Shimin said, "before, general Zuowei was Chai Shao, my brother-in-law and Duke of Huo, but he has died of illness. Since then, the post of left back general has been vacant. You know, Zuowei is the leader of the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty. It is very important to command the capital and guard the capital. People who are not competent and trustworthy are not competent. For this position of general, many people are fighting in secret, which makes me very tired. You should tell me today who is more suitable to take up the post? "

"This..." Qin mubai was stunned for a moment and said blankly, "how dare you talk about such military and state affairs?"

"No harm. I asked, you said. To tell you the truth, there's no need to play around. also. I don't believe what you said, just listen to one more opinion. " Li Shimin's expression is relaxed, just like chatting.

Qin Mu Bai twisted his brow and said: "if you want to say that Zuo Wei is really very important, you have to be the most trusted and competent person of your majesty. When Wei Chen first entered the army, he didn't know the general very well. In terms of impression and feeling, these are the only candidates. "

"Talk about it."

Qin mubai said: "first, Yuchi Jingde. The second is Cheng Zhijie, the third is Li Daliang, and the fourth is Li Junxian. "

After hearing this, Li Shimin twisted his brows and thought for a moment, then shook his head. He said: "Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Zhijie are definitely not good. These two men were originally one of the generals of the 16th National Guard, and now they are soldiers at the border or in the prefectures and counties, and their duties are not small. If I transfer any of them back to serve as a general of the left wing, will I not tear down the east wall and make up the west wall? Neither can Li Daliang. He is too old. He has not been in good health in recent years. He is almost ready for medicine. Besides, he is a right back general, almost the same as the left back! "

"Ha ha!" Qin Mu Bai wry smile, "Your Majesty, micro minister said, really can't come up with any good idea."

"No, you are not honest. You are not willing to tell the truth. You are perfunctory." Li Shimin's face became serious, staring at Qin mubai.

"Er, this..." Qin mubai said with an embarrassed smile, "Your Majesty, I really don't have much to say about such military and state affairs. What's more, Wei Chen himself is also in charge of the army. Isn't he suspicious of taking shoes in the melon field? "

"Oh, I see what you mean." Li Shimin said with a smile. "You mean that you are the most suitable person, right?"

"No, I don't mean that." Qin mubai said with a smile, "Weichen has his own job. It's very important in Lanzhou. Weichen hasn't planned to leave there yet. I'll have to stay there for at least three or five years to make things even. "

"That's the truth." Li Shimin nodded, "so. I'm going to promote Li Junxian. Although he is not very capable, his loyalty is very important, and I can use it easily. Beijing officials, especially the generals who lead the troops in front of me, are very suitable. "

Li Shimin nodded: "it's very good."

Qin mubai was not totally disillusioned with the official position of left back general. How to say, it is also the head of the general of the regular army of the sixteen guards. Although there is no Baiqi to make those who pull wind and dazzling, but the hands that really have real power. However, Qin mubai also knows his weight and weight. It would be good if he could manage Lanzhou well. Others will come naturally. take it easy.

"But then the problem came back." Li Shimin said, "Li Junxian is in Baiqi. Now there is no one to replace him! He holds the posts of deputy envoy and Changshi. Since you left Baiqi, he is the actual commander. I've been selecting people who can replace him, but I don't seem to be very handy. The other two vice envoys of Baiqi, Wei Chi Baoyun and Cheng huaibi, were not outstanding and incompetent, that's all. Without Li Junxian, I'm really worried that Baiqi's team will be broken up. You know what? Baiqi now has 1000 or 2000 people, and it is constantly providing talents for the army of the Tang Dynasty. "Qin mubai's heart brightened: I understand! After a long detour, Li Shimin actually wanted me to recommend him a person who could let him take over Baiqi at ease! After all, Baiqi was built by me. Who has more say in this matter than me?

"Your Majesty, I think that the organizational system of Baiqi is perfect, and it is not impossible to replace it with a commander who can" keep success. " Qin mubai said, "that is to say, people who are loyal and reliable and do things in a down-to-earth way."

"To the point." Li Shimin nodded happily and said, "then tell me, who is suitable?"

Qin Mu Bai couldn't help but smile, arched his hand and said: "as the saying goes, if you lift your hands inside, you can't avoid your relatives or your enemies outside. That's what I said."

"Come on, who is it?" Li Shimin looked at Qin mubai with great interest.

"My elder brother Qin Tong, my second brother Qin bin. They can be divided into deputy envoys and long history to fill the vacancy left by Li Junxian. " Qin mubai said.

"Ha ha! You son of a bitch, how dare you say it Li Shimin burst out laughing and looked at Qin mubai with deep meaning. Suddenly, he whipped his whip on his horse's buttock and ran forward, throwing down a sentence to Qin mubai --

"I'll go back to the palace and think about it again!"

The corners of Qin Mu Bai's mouth gently stir up, show a smile, secret way: one person gets the way, chicken dog ascends to heaven. Lian Yuwen, Hong Tai, Xue Rengui, Pang Fei and Tu Youhai are all promoted by me. How can they treat my two brothers badly? Baiqi, the trump Division I built myself, is now the Datang military academy, and can it be left alone? Li Shimin has been talking about it for a long time, but still he can only rest assured that the Qin family will be in charge of Baiqi?

Baiqi army is different from others. In other armies, if you take the letter of appointment and the military talisman from the imperial court, you will be the only one to follow. Not in Baiqi. Everyone in this army has a natural sense of pride and superiority, and the nature of this team is also very special. It is the emperor's personal bodyguard. First of all, the emperor must be assured.

It is certain that a new face will be put in and excluded. It is hard to say whether the emperor and the people in the harem are at ease.

According to this, Qin Tong and Qin bin are very suitable. Both of them were born in the Qin family. Qin Tong had been a general of the Imperial Guards for many years, while Qin bin was a member of the emperor's think tank. They were quite familiar with the Imperial Palace, and the emperor knew them well. In addition, they are Qin mubai's brothers, who dares to refuse to join the Baiqi army? This will solve the big problem that Baiqi may crowd them out.

It seems that these two brothers are the best candidates to fill the vacancy of Baiqi!

Qin mubai was very happy. For a long time, although he has been holding the title of "Inspector Baiqi envoy", he always feels that Baiqi is far away from himself. At most, there is only a little "mental power" left. Now, if the emperor can appoint his two elder brothers to be deputy envoys and chief historians, it will undoubtedly announce that Baiqi is back in his hands.

What a solid capital it is to recover from loss!
