Rise in the glory of the king system

Chapter 813 Expectation
vertical day.

Dali Temple Yamen.

Lu Shisan suddenly ran to Qin Zulai's office.

Seeing Qin Zu coming, he asked: "Master Shaoqing, Turkic and Tuyuhun, are you really going to challenge me, the younger generation of Tang Dynasty?"

"What do they think? It's nothing more than fighting. The Turkic barbarians still have some skills in terms of force."

"But Tuyuhun, a barbarian, still wants to fight with us? Are they crazy?"

When Qin Zulai heard Lu Shisan's words, he put down the file and said with a smile, "Even you know about it."

Lu Shisan nodded heavily, "Now the whole city is discussing this matter. Restaurants and teahouses, basically wherever there are people, are discussing this matter."

"Even if the lower officials don't want to know, it's okay."

Qin Zulai narrowed his eyes, "Yesterday, only some of the common people knew about it, but today everyone knows about it, and if they don't discuss this matter, it's like a villager in the mountains... This really puts a lot of effort into it."

He sneered, "I'm really afraid that the court will not agree."

Lu Shisan was surprised when he heard the words, "Master Shaoqing, you mean that something is wrong?"

Qin Zulai chuckled, "Think about it carefully, how could this be right, His Majesty just received the challenge letter yesterday, and everyone knows it today..."

"You know, even if His Majesty promoted a decree in the past, not many people might know about it within a day, let alone the news that the court did not promote it."

"So, you don't have to think about it, you know there must be someone behind it."

Lu Shisan was startled, and said hastily: "Then, the next officer will go and check to see who is actually contributing to the flames."

Qin Zulai shook his head, "No need, there must have been someone in the palace to investigate last night, but there is no movement so far, which means that the palace did not investigate either."

"If we go to investigate at this time, it will be even more futile."

Lu Shisan thought for a while, then nodded.

He used to be a shadow guard, so he knew very well that if such abnormal news spread in Chang'an City, the palace would definitely notice and send bad people to investigate the source.

However, there is no news today, and it can only be explained, and His Majesty can't find out.

"Then Mr. Shaoqing, are we just going to let the news spread?"

"if not?"

Qin Zulai smiled, "It's better to defend against the people's mouth than Fangchuan. It's better to block it than to avoid it. The common people already know about it. Don't you want them to pretend they don't know?"

"Originally, it was nothing. The people were very confident and thought that the Turks and Tuyuhun people came here to humiliate themselves. But if you don't let them spread it, or you conduct a large-scale investigation, it will make the people think that we have a guilty conscience."

"At this time, the impact will be even greater."

"So, don't worry about it. People like to talk, so let them talk. As long as we can defend the dignity of Datang as they think, then that's fine."

Lu Shisan was very confident just now, but when he heard Qin Zulai say this now, he felt a little uncertain.

He said: "Master Shaoqing, since they dare to spread the word like this, they must be prepared for us, so... can we really win? I am a little worried."

Before, I didn't know the twists and turns, so that's all.

Now that he knew it, Lu Shisan suddenly felt unsure.

Qin Zulai smiled and said, "Don't worry, we will win."

"Really?"

"With me here, do you think you will lose?"

Lu Shisan was stunned for a moment.

The next moment, he didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes lit up suddenly.

He quickly looked at Qin Zulai and said, "Did Mr. Shaoqing mean..."

Qin Zulai shook his head, "Let's see when the time comes, I don't like showing off."

"But if there is really no other way, and the backbone of the younger generation of Tang Dynasty will be crushed, then I will not stand by and watch."

"It's okay to kill someone, but to kill someone's heart, that's not allowed!"

"My Tang's backbone, it's not up to some barbarians to step on it!"

When Lu Shisan heard Qin Zu's words, his heart immediately calmed down.

He knows, it's stable!
It is definitely stable! !
As for Turkic and Tuyuhun, don't dance too much, if they dance too much, Lord Shaoqing will definitely teach them to be human again.

Qin Zulai smiled and said: "Okay, there's no need to pay too much attention to such trivial matters. It just so happens that you are here too, so go and help me run my errands."

Lu Shisan looked at Qin Zulai.

Qin Zulai said: "You go to the Ministry of Households first, go to the Minister of the Ministry of Households, Mr. Gao Shilian, and ask about some things."

"If it's as expected, then you should go to Chang'an and go north to investigate something for me."

"Go and come back quickly, maybe you can still catch up with the excitement of the competition."

When Lu Shisan heard Qin Zu's words, his heart was shocked.

Qin Zulai rarely let him run so far.

And every time Qin Zu came to ask him to do this, it showed that Sir Shaoqing might be about to do something big.

Ever since what happened in Kaiyang, he felt like he was rusty these days.

As soon as I heard that there was something to do, my spirit immediately came!
Qin Zulai told Lu Shisan the specific things in a low voice.

Lu Shisan said directly: "Master Shaoqing, please rest assured, I will set off immediately, and I will definitely be able to return in ten days at the latest!"

After speaking, he left quickly.

Looking at the back of Lu Shisan leaving, Qin Zulai smiled.

He suddenly turned around and walked to another table, on which a chess board was placed.

Many sunspots on the chessboard have fallen.

As for the white piece, it has not yet been moved.

At this time, Qin Zulai grabbed a handful of white pieces and quickly dropped them on the chessboard.

On the chessboard, the situation where the sunspots dominate finally began to change.

The corners of Qin Zulai's mouth rose slightly, "Next, we'll just wait for the good show to begin."

………………

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed by.

It's also August.

At the end of summer in August, the hottest and hottest June and July have passed.

Starting from August, the temperature will gradually drop, and the crops will gradually enter the harvest time, and the autumn harvest will not be far away.

In the past half month, Chang'an has been calm on the surface.

The undercurrents in the interior are surging, and the common people have no way of knowing except those who really participated in it.

But folks, in the past half a month, they have not been idle.

Turkic and Tuyuhun are about to challenge the big melons of the younger generation of Datang, and they will eat with gusto.

Mr. Storyteller, with a big brain, began to describe the magnificent scene of the day of the civil and military competition.

The common people were also talking about it, guessing who the younger generation's leader of the Tang Dynasty would be.

Guess who it is will be the leader of the younger generation of Datang.

At the same time, some people set up gambling booths, betting on how long it will take on the day of civil and military battles, and Datang will win.

Some say half an hour, others say two hours, and still others say it takes three days and three nights to decide the winner.

There are people who gamble at any time, but only if no one beats Datang, he will lose.

Because in their impression, it is absolutely impossible for Datang to lose!

Not only one person said so, but everyone said so!

So much so that some people may be worried, but they are too embarrassed to say it, as if they seem to raise others' ambitions.

Therefore, the victory of Datang seems to be an inevitable thing.

Everyone thinks so.

All the people were in high spirits, waiting for the arrival of the envoys from the two countries.

But the officials of Datang, those with a little bit of brains, became more and more serious in their hearts.

They know that under such circumstances, the whole people expect that if Datang wins, it will be good, and it will raise the cohesion of the people and their confidence in Datang to another level.

This will play a huge role in promoting the reforms and reforms of various schools of thought in the future.

But if you lose, then how much trust you have now, and how much disappointment you will have at that time.

No matter how much confidence you have now, by then, how much you will be hit.

Once it loses, it will really be a huge crisis for the entire Datang.

Once the common people lose confidence and trust in the imperial court, the credibility of the imperial court will also drop significantly.

At that time, it may appear as it was at the end of Han Dynasty.

The imperial court has no majesty, the regime is divided, and troubled times are coming again!

That would really be a huge hassle.

Therefore, every time the officials heard the confident words of the people on the road, their hearts became heavier.

Some officials can already guess that there is definitely something abnormal behind this incident, and someone is definitely pushing it deliberately.

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for the common people to have such confidence.

But even if they knew, there was nothing they could do about it.

Because this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy, just like the cycle of day and night, it cannot be avoided, it cannot be avoided.

"Hey."

In a tavern, on the second floor by the window, Han Min couldn't help sighing when he heard the impassioned words of the storyteller and the applause from the common people.

He said: "Master Shaoqing, how can we fix this? Tell me, what if we lose?"

Qin Zu came to eat the dishes, raised his eyelids, and glanced at Han Min who was frowning into a Sichuan character.

He said lightly: "If you can't lose, why worry about the impossible."

Han Min said: "Then, what if we lose?"

"The public opinion these days is too unusual. Before, the people were just talking about it, but now they hear it, and it's all words of victory."

"This is too abnormal, Sir Shaoqing, you know that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Once you lose, I am afraid the world will be in chaos."

Qin Zu came to hear the words, nodded in approval, and then said: "It's okay, I can't lose."

Han Min: "..."

"Master Shaoqing, why do I feel that you are not worried at all?" Han Min asked.

Qin Zulai rolled his eyes, "I've said it ten thousand times, I can't lose, you are so worried."

He was really helpless.

In the past few days, Li Xiaoyao also had a sad face, and the carefree Cheng Yaojin was about to be depressed.

It is said that Cheng Chumo is given special training at home every day.

Walking outside Cheng's mansion every day, I could hear Cheng Chu's painful cries of crying for his father and mother. Those who knew it was special training, but those who didn't knew it was Cheng Yaojin who was killing pigs.

Changle, the silly daughter-in-law of his own family, also had a sad expression on his face.

Every day when I go home, I will receive questions from the silly daughter-in-law, saying what should I do, what should I do, what should Tang do, what nonsense?

Everyone, now it seems that the end of the world is coming.

Do you just not believe Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaidao and Changsun Chong, the leaders of the younger generation?
Well, he didn't really believe it either.

But isn't there still him?

Oh, Qin Zulai forgot, he hasn't told those people yet, he will cover everything.

Glancing at Han Min, forget it, let them be anxious, so that they can also deceive those who are fueling the flames.

Only when they have deceived their own people can outsiders think that they have all been tricked.

Qin Zulai stretched his waist and smiled, finally this day is coming.

After calculating the time, it should be almost here today, right?
At this moment, an exclamation suddenly came from downstairs, "The envoys of the Turks and Tuyuhun have arrived and have entered Chang'an City!"

As soon as the voice fell, the whole restaurant fell silent.

Han Min also looked at Qin Zulai fiercely.

But Qin Zulai raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Is it finally here? I have been waiting for you for too long."

…………

"Look! The Turkic and Tuyuhun envoys have already arrived downstairs, and they are on the street outside."

At this time, a diner yelled.

Then those guests who are still talking about it.

Suddenly there was a huff, and they all rushed to the window and looked downstairs.

Some people simply ran downstairs, on the road, to see the Turkic and Tuyuhun envoys.

Han Min and Qin Zulai happened to be sitting by the window. When they looked down, they could see the mighty team of envoys from the two countries.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or premeditated.

The envoys of these two countries arrived in Chang'an at the same time.

At this time, the Turkic envoys were in front.

The Tuyuhun envoys were behind, and they all walked across the long street in the direction of the post station.

The scale of the Turkic envoys was not low, with hundreds of Turkic soldiers guarding them. All of these soldiers were tall and tall, like hills, and looked full of fierceness. They were all elite at a glance.

And at the forefront of these soldiers was a taller man leading them.

This man was riding on a tall horse with two broadswords on his waist. He had blue eyes, which were full of unruly and strong self-confidence.

His chin was raised slightly, and he didn't even look at the crowd watching, his disdain was obvious.

Han Min said: "Lord Shaoqing, he should be the second Turkic prince, Ashina Linton."

Qin Zulai squinted his eyes, glanced at Ashina Linton, and smiled softly, "That's really a confident enough person, with his defiant look, he really thinks he's going to do it."

"It can be seen that he is full of confidence in this fight."

Han Min had a bit of a toothache, "The second Turkic prince is not easy to mess with at first glance. I am really worried. If you say we really lose, it will be really troublesome."

The corner of Qin Zulai's mouth twitched, and he still said the same sentence, "Don't worry, Mr. Han, our Tang Dynasty can't lose."

Han Min looked at Qin Zulai suspiciously. He didn't know where Qin Zulai's confidence came from, why he thought he would not lose.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao, although they are not weak in strength, but the second Turkic prince, he really feels more fierce!
And at this moment, the second Turkic prince looked around the crowd.

Suddenly he said loudly: "This king is invincible all over the world, and the younger generations of all countries have been trampled by this king! This king is the strongest person among the young generation in the world today!"

"You Datang, you can't do it either! You just wait for this king to step on the leading figures of your Datang's younger generation, hahahaha..."

Ashina Linton laughed wildly, the laughter was extremely piercing.

"Your Highness, Prince of the Turks, please pay attention to your words and deeds. This is in our Tang Dynasty, Chang'an, not you, the Turks!"

This is, a voice shouted.

Qin Zulai and Han Min looked around, and saw that the speaker was Han De, the new commander of the imperial guards.

Qin Zulai saw through the previous commander of the imperial guards, but he was pretended by the phantom god Li Xiao, so Li Er had to choose a new commander of the imperial guards.

The commander of the imperial guards was chosen by Li Er from the Ministry of War, and he was usually responsible for leading troops to garrison near Chang'an, guarding Chang'an's safety, and he had nothing to say about his own strength and loyalty.

So this time, no more suitable person could be found for the time being, and General Hande was transferred to the palace.Became the commander of the guards.

This time, when the Turkic and Tuyuhun envoys entered Chang'an, it was Han De who went to greet them.

Of course, saying it was greeting them was actually staring at them to prevent them from doing things secretly.

When she heard Ashnarinton being so arrogant, she shouted out.

But the Turkic second prince turned his nostrils to him when he heard the words, and said with a sneer, "That's the truth, are you still afraid of my king talking about it?"

"Just wait, in the next few days, you will see this king with your own eyes, and you will step on Qin Huaidao or Cheng Chumo, hahahaha!"

Han Min frowned, his expression was not good.

And the common people were even more so, each and everyone reprimanded loudly.

But Ashina Linton didn't care at all, just like that, he laughed and left.

The people in the restaurant were also furious.

It is said that on the day of the competition, you must go to the scene to see the scene of Ashina Linton kneeling down and calling grandpa.

Qin Zulai narrowed his eyes, but immediately laughed, "I was sold and returned the money. With this brain, you dare to be so rampant. You really don't know how to die."

"what?!"

Han Min was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at Qin Zulai.

Why couldn't he understand Qin Zu's words?

But Qin Zulai just shook his head slightly, and didn't want to say more.

"Tuyuhun's envoy team has arrived!"

At this time, some people spoke.

Qin Zulai and Han Min looked out the window again.

Then I saw the Turkic envoy group, which was the envoy team of Tuyuhun.

Compared with the luxurious lineup of the Turkic envoys, the Tuyuhun envoys are much more ordinary.

There were only a hundred guards, and two carriages, and nothing else.

In a carriage sat a middle-aged man.

The man was raising the curtain and looking out.

In the other carriage, it was unknown who was sitting, and the curtain of the carriage remained silent.

The Tuyuhun envoys were very quiet, no one was as rampant as the second Turkic prince, they just walked here quietly and disappeared from sight.

Han Min said: "The Tuyuhun envoys are quite polite, at least they are much better than that Turkic. The second prince of the Turkic is really extremely rampant!"

Qin Zulai tapped the teacup with his finger and Xuanji chuckled.

"Master Han, haven't you heard a word?"

"What?" Han Min was taken aback.

Qin Zulai said meaningfully: "A dog that can bite people doesn't bark, but the more it barks, the more uncertain it is, and the more afraid it is to actually bite people."

"Uh……"

Han Min was taken aback, suddenly he didn't understand what Qin Zu came to mean.

Qin Zulai shook his head and stood up straight away.

He put down the copper coins and said, "Master Han, let's go."

"The curtain has already opened, and we're just waiting for the good show to begin!"

………………

With the arrival of Turkic and Tuyuhun envoys, the atmosphere in Chang'an City suddenly changed.

Because on the day the second Turkic prince arrived, his rampant words directly ignited the anger of the people in Chang'an.

So almost every day, people could hear the people angrily scolding the Turkic second prince. It seemed that the attention of the entire Chang'an City was on Turkic.

Put it all on...the upcoming competition.

Countless people are waiting for the start of the competition, waiting for the second Turkic prince to be severely slapped in the face!
Time passed quickly in such an atmosphere.

Finally, three days passed in a flash.

Today is the day of competition!
Early in the morning, before Qin Zulai had gone out, there was a knock on the door.

He opened the door and saw that the god standing outside the door was Lu Shisan.

Lu Shisan had been sent away by Qin Zulai more than ten days ago.Just never came back.

Qin Zulai thought that Lu Shisan would not be able to keep up with the competition and this wonderful show.

But I didn't expect that it would be better to catch up early than to be clever.

On the day of the competition, Lu Shisan unexpectedly rushed back.

Looking at the dusty Lu Shisan, Qin Zulai smiled and said: "Lu Shisan, this journey has worked hard for you."

Lu Shisan shook his head hastily, "It's a good fortune for me to be able to help Mr. Shaoqing solve his problems."

"Xiaguan thought that he would be able to come back in ten days. I didn't expect that when Xiaguan went to investigate according to Master Shaoqing's order, he really happened to discover their plan..."

"So, the next official hastily followed Master Shaoqing's plan, without realizing it, the delay is just a few days."

"But in the end, the lower officials rushed back."

When Qin Zulai heard Lu Shisan's words, he nodded slightly.

He asked, "Has everything been resolved?"

Lu Shisan nodded, "When the officials came back, it was almost the end of the day, and they couldn't make any waves anymore."

"That's good."

Qin Zulai smiled, he turned back to the house and changed into a black official robe, and said: "It's just right, since you've rushed back, let's go to a good show with me."

"Turjue and Tuyuhun must have been impatient. On the first day they arrived in Chang'an, they kept clamoring."

"Your Majesty and all the ministers couldn't help it anymore, so they wanted to end it as soon as possible, so they chose the competition three days later, which is today."

"Just right, the competition will start soon, let's go quickly."

Lu Shisan hurriedly followed Qin Zu, and when he heard that there was a good show to watch, he didn't care about being tired from the journey.

He asked: "Master Shaoqing, do you want to make a move?"

Qin Zulai nodded slightly.

Just as he was about to continue speaking, an untimely voice came.

"Ancestors, ancestors!!"

Hearing the voice, it was the crisp voice of his own wife.

Looking along the source of the sound, I saw Changle quickly running over from behind.

Seeing this, Lu Shisan touched his nose in embarrassment, and retreated more than ten steps with good eyesight.

"Girl, what's wrong?"

Seeing Changle out of breath, Qin Zu felt distressed for a while.

Stepped forward and began to gently pat Chang Le's shoulders to relax.

Chang Le looked at it with some resentment, and said, "Ancestor! Although you didn't say anything, I know whether you are going to play today!"

Although the voice was an inquiry, it was affirmative.

After all, no one knows her husband's abilities better than her.

Even Cheng Yaojin is not a close enemy, such a master husband, Chang Le felt that his father would let him off the stage, so hell.

Qin Zulai was speechless for a while, and even the hand holding his wife's breath became stiff.

"I……"

"What are you!"

Changle interrupted Qin Zulai and took out a jade pendant from his arms, "Just pay attention to your safety. I know your abilities very well!"

"Also, this is the jade pendant that I have been making since I heard that the Turkic and Tuyuhun envoys were coming to Chang'an. Here, I will give it to you and keep you safe."

Qin Zulai: "..."

Hearing this, Qin Zulai didn't know why, but was moved inexplicably.

original!

It's not that the daughter-in-law Changle doesn't know, she always knew that I, Qin, was going to participate, and...

Not only didn't stop it, but made the jade pendant by himself...

He took the jade pendant silently, then tightened his hands, hugging his wife tightly.

An imposing seven-foot man, a tear fell from the corner of his eye for some reason.

"Girl, as your husband, you will definitely bring back victory."

Qin Zulai said softly.

Very light.

But in Changle, he sensed a belief of victory in it.

Changle's vermilion lips raised slightly, and said with a smile: "Yes! Of course, our family ancestors are unparalleled in the world!!"

After speaking without shame or dryness, Changle saw the light bulb Lu Shisan beside him.

In an instant, Qin Zulai only showed his gentle Changle, but because of the presence of outsiders, he quickly blushed with embarrassment.

"Okay, okay, I'm so ashamed, Zu Lai, go quickly, go quickly, and observe the opponent's state more." Chang Le urged.

Qin Zulai nodded, took the jade pendant made by his wife, and walked away with Lu Shisan.

Behind Chang Le, with a pair of small hands clinging tightly to his chest, looked at Qin Zulai like a husband stone.

She is a girl, so it is not suitable for such a big occasion to attend with Qin Zulai.

Therefore, she could only watch Qin Zu come and go, and then wait for a while before walking with her sister Xiaosizi to watch her husband's glory.

"Ancestors come, we must win!"

Changle held a small fan circle to cheer her up. This was taught by Qin Zulai, saying that putting it out would make Qin Zulai himself ten times happier.

…………

On the way, Qin Zulai and Lu Shisan walked together.

"Lu Shisan, this time, I plan to make a direct move."

"Originally, I didn't want to make a direct move. I also wanted Changsun Chong and Cheng Chumo to practice their hands. They couldn't bear it anymore. I am making a move."

"However, there are some guys who dance too much. They are obviously stupid and self-righteous. Such people are too obtrusive."

"Plus, the common people are all watching. If the person who played really loses, I'm afraid that it will be too late for me to play again."

"So, since this is the case, then don't waste time, let alone..."

Qin Zulai narrowed his eyes slightly, "The real good show is yet to come. I have to bring an absolutely perfect victory to my daughter-in-law who trusts me."

Hearing this, Lu Shisan gasped.

He knew that Qin Zu was definitely serious when he came here!

Lu Shisan didn't understand what Qin Zulai's so-called good show was, but he knew Qin Zulai's ability.

If Qin Zu came to make a serious move, the result would be absolutely safe.

And this was the reason why he rushed back to see it.

He just wanted to see with his own eyes, the scene of Qin Zu's abuse!
He was pleasantly surprised: "Great, Master Shaoqing took action, then there must be no suspense about the result."

Qin Zulai smiled and shook his head slightly.

Lu Lu Shisan said: "The Turkic and Tuyuhun people now know that their opponent is you, Shaoqing?"

Qin Zulai shook his head with a smile, "They always thought that their opponents were Changsun Chong and Cheng Chumo, or Qin Huaidao."

"So these days, they should have been secretly investigating Changsun Chong and the others, preparing for the upcoming competition."

"However, how could they know..."

Qin Zulai raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Their opponent is actually this official?"

Lu Shisan's eyes lit up sharply.

He thought those people knew about it.

But it didn't occur to them that they didn't know anything about it!
In this case……

If it was in the martial arts arena, the second prince of Turkic would clamor loudly, but suddenly found that the person who came to fight with him on the stage was actually the civil servant Shaoqing.

What will he look like?
And when he was abused by Master Shaoqing and cried for his father and mother, what expression would he have?
My Tang Dynasty, I don’t need military generals to deal with you. A civil servant can beat you until your mother doesn’t even know her!

Are you still awesome?

You are not even as good as a civil servant.

Still clamoring for number one in the world?
I bother!

No slap in the face!
What the hell!

Thinking of this, Lu Shisan became excited immediately.

Really think about it, it makes people look forward to it! !
