Datang traitor
Chapter 78
"This is Qin Shaoqing's fault. Since the eldest grandson's kindness is hard to refuse, Qin Shaoqing shouldn't refuse." Dai Zhou persuaded Qin Yuan to accept the knife.
Qin Yuan glanced at Changsun Wuji, and tentatively asked Dai Zhou, "Am I good for that?"
"Of course that's fine." Dai Zhou smiled.
With a sullen face, Changsun Wuji took off the saber at his waist and put it on the table with a snap.
Changsun Wuji's knife is not inlaid with gold, silver and precious stones, but one can tell at a glance that the material used for this knife is extraordinary, it must be made of the best minerals, smelted into steel and then refined.The scabbard is engraved with eagle and auspicious cloud patterns, the carving is fine, the texture is cold and moist, and it feels very good.There is a fierce tiger with its jaws wide open on the side of the knife, and when it draws out the knife, the blade is so bright that it can almost blind people's eyes.The head of the knife is curved upwards and has two edges. This kind of knife is the most powerful for killing people.
"Put it away, don't hurt yourself when the time comes." Changsun Wuji warned Qin Yuan word by word.
"Elder grandson, don't worry." Qin Yuan took the knife and asked Dai Zhou if he had something to say to grandson Wuji.Seeing Dai Zhou nodding, Qin Yuan immediately said goodbye to the two with a smile.
This is not a farewell, but an escape.
Changsun Wuji stared at Qin Yuan's back with displeasure, his eyes filled with murderous aura of "he must be killed".
Dai Zhou saluted, and respectfully explained to Changsun Wuji his intention to celebrate his mother's birthday.After waiting for a while, Dai Zhou didn't see Changsun Wuji's response. He looked up at Changsun Wuji in puzzlement, and found that Changsun Wuji was showing a face of displeasure, as if he wanted to kill him soon.
Dai Zhou was very puzzled why Changsun Wuji treated him with such a bad attitude.After thinking about it, he only thought of the only possibility, that he had a quarrel with Changsun Wuji just yesterday.
"If the eldest grandson had a dispute with you yesterday, he wanted to stop the subordinate from performing filial piety, but the subordinate would definitely not follow." Dai Zhou was also angry. He provoked whoever he provoked, why did Changsun Wuji miss every time? Get angry at him for no reason.
Changsun Wuji came back to his senses and saw Dai Zhou staring at him with a hard face, only then did he realize what he said.
"I'm not sure, why did you suddenly get angry?"
"But the way Changsun Gong looked at the officials just now—" Dai Zhou paused. He felt that the theory of this matter was unclear. Holding back in his heart, "That's all, thank you, grandson, for your approval, and I will leave as an official."
Changsun Wuji: "..."
The feng shui of Dali Temple might be at odds with him!
After Changsun Wuji returned home, Changsun Chong came to greet him, feeling even more annoyed for no reason.
"Let me ask you, why didn't you tell me about the unlucky thing that Qin Shishu showed you?"
"Uncle Qin said that he was investigating the case, and his father was his superior. The son thought that his father already knew about it." Chang Sun Chong explained meekly.
"Just to investigate the case, he shouldn't ask you. There are so many people around him, he can ask anyone! Look at you, you are so stupid, you don't know if you are tricked by him!" Changsun Wuji reprimanded Changsun Chong. Head, warn him that if Qin Yuan does similar things to him in the future, he will report to himself immediately.
Chang Sun Chong obediently agreed, but he didn't understand. This matter was obviously over yesterday, but today his father Zensheng brought it up again, and he was still so angry.
After the eldest grandson rushed back to the house, he summoned his younger siblings and reminded them to be more careful in the past few days. My father is not in a good mood recently. It is best to avoid wandering around his father these two days.
After dark, Chang Sun Chong was sitting in the room practicing calligraphy, when the attendants around him suddenly came to whisper to Chang Sun Chong.
"A message came from Qin Shaoqing next door, asking Dalang to gather by the wall."
Chang Sun Chong stopped writing and was stunned for a moment, "By the wall?"
"It's the wall adjacent to our mansion and Qin's mansion." The follower explained.
Chang Sun Chong went as he said, and before he reached the wall, he saw a figure swaying on the wall of his house from a distance.Changsun Chong picked up the lantern and looked carefully, and it was really him, Qin Shishu, who was holding a knife at the moment, sitting on the wall with a worried face.
"What is Qin Shishu doing?" Chang Sun Chong couldn't help laughing.
When Qin Yuan saw that the eldest grandson was coming, he hurriedly ordered the servants behind him to bring up the ladder, and then set it up to the eldest grandson's mansion.Changsun Chong hesitated, climbed up the ladder, sat side by side with Qin Yuan on the wall, and had a panoramic view of the night view of the entire Changsun Mansion.In such a quiet night, sitting on a high place overlooking all this, there is an indescribable sense of pleasure.
"this is for you."
A knife immediately fell heavily into Chang Sun Chong's arms.Chang Sun Chong took a closer look and realized that it belonged to his father's saber. His father had always cherished this saber, and no one would give it up even if he touched it.
"Why does Uncle Shi have my father's knife?" Zhang Sun Chong asked in surprise.
"Of course it's your uncle, I'm too powerful. Your father was grateful to me, so he gave me this knife as a thank-you gift on impulse. After thinking about it, I think it's inappropriate for me to accept such an expensive gift. If you directly If you return it to your father, your father will feel ashamed, so just give it to you, and you will return it to him." Qin Yuan said 'understanding'.
The eldest grandson hurriedly thanked Qin Yuan, "My father really loves this knife, but he can give this knife to Uncle Shi, it seems to be a gift from the heart. How dare I take it back, Uncle Qin should keep it."
"But it may not be sincere, it's really just a whim, did you find that your father's temper is a little bit bad today?" Qin Yuan tentatively asked his eldest grandson Chong.
Chang Sun Chong nodded immediately.
"Then it's probably because I don't have this personal item with me, so I don't feel pleasing to look at. Besides, I have already accepted his wishes, but this knife is really useless to me, so you don't want to refuse." Qin Yuan persisted.
Seeing that Qin Yuan insisted on this, Chang Sun Chong accepted it with a smile.It's a pity that he is sitting on the wall now, otherwise he would definitely stand up and salute Qin Yuan again and again, thanking him for pondering and understanding his father's thoughts so much.
"But Qin Shishu is looking for me, why did he climb the wall to meet here?" Chang Sun Chong asked doubtfully.
"I'll knock on the door of your house to look for you at night, and your father will definitely get the news, so you won't have to be tossed about. It's not as convenient as we are. Besides, I want to take you to my house, Look at things, this is the shortcut." Qin Yuan smiled and beckoned his eldest grandson to climb the wall to his house, and then led his eldest grandson to the back garden.
By the lake in the back garden, there is a circle of red lights, which is really beautiful.Chang Sun Chong thought that Qin Yuan was just taking himself to the garden to enjoy the lanterns, but soon he found several fish hanging from the branches by the lake, all of them hanging above the water.
Chang Sun Chong had heard before that the ghost screams in the back garden of the Qin Mansion had other mysteries, so he immediately understood that Qin Yuan wanted to show him the giant salamander.
Chang Sun Chong was born in Gaomen since he was a child, but he has never seen giant salamanders that are only found in deep mountains and streams.
Chang Sun Chong was immediately interested and his eyes lit up, "I heard that the giant salamander sounds like a baby?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a short cry of 'ahoo' from the other side of the lake.
Qin Yuan put his index finger against his mouth, signaled Chang Sun Chong to keep quiet, and squatted down on the bank with him, waiting quietly.
Changsun Chong nodded, and suddenly heard the sound of water, and saw the round head as big and flat as a fifteen or six-year-old child jumping out of the water's edge to eat the hanging fish.After the giant salamander bit the fish, it sank into the water. After a while, its head popped up again.
Only then did Chang Sun Chong see the whole body of the giant salamander, which was dark brown with four claws. Its body looked like a gecko, and its skin looked like that of a catfish, but with grainy protrusions.
Ah, ah, ah——
The giant salamander suddenly made a very powerful and short cry.
Chang Sun Chong was overwhelmed with surprise, staring at the giant salamander with his eyes wide open, with a very excited and brilliant smile on his face.When the giant salamander finally crawled back into the water, Chang Sun Chong raised his eyebrows and said to Qin Yuan, "It's really interesting!"
"I also find it interesting. If you want to watch it in the future, you can come at night. They hide in the cave during the day and only come out at night." Qin Yuan explained.
Changsun Chong laughed and agreed, thanking Qin Yuan again and again.
"That's right!" Qin Yuan was very happy to see Chang Sun Chong happy, and patted him on the shoulder, "I usually see that you are well-behaved and don't laugh loudly, so I guess you have restrained yourself for too long. I heard that tomorrow will be you On your birthday, this 'laughing' is my birthday gift to you."
Chang Sun Chong was startled, then turned to look at Qin Yuan: "Uncle Qin Shi actually knows my birthday?"
"That's natural. Who are you, Qin Shishu?"
Qin Yuan and Chang Sun Chong laughed at the same time.
The next day, Changsun Chong walked briskly to make peace with Changsun Wuji.Changsun Wuji only told Changsun Chong to be obedient in class and focus more on his studies.Chang Sun Chong was a little disappointed to hear that his father didn't say a word about his birthday, so he obediently agreed and went.
Not long after, the mansion accepted the gift from the Qin mansion, and the housekeeper came here to sue the eldest grandson Wuji.
"What gift?" Changsun Wuji asked in confusion.
"The birthday gift for Da Lang, Da Lang was very happy when he received it. He also said that it would be fine to just give one. Unexpectedly, Uncle Qin gave a second gift." The housekeeper laughed.
Changsun Wuji suddenly remembered that today is indeed Changsun Chong's birthday, and his wife reminded him last night, but he forgot about it this morning.
Changsun Wuji asked the butler what kind of gift these two gifts were.
"The last gift is just some dried dates, plum jam and cherry wine, etc. It is not worth much. The first gift is not known, it must have not been sent from the mansion, so the slaves don't know about it." The steward told Changsun Wuji explained.
Changsun Wuji frowned, "Since when did he have such a good relationship with Chong'er?"
"Qin Shaoqing has a good temper, never puts on airs, and can talk smartly, so he should be easy to get along with anyone." The housekeeper sighed.
Changsun Wuji raised his eyebrows.
The butler was so frightened that he immediately retracted his neck and silenced, and respectfully apologized to Mr. Changsun Wuji.
Seeing the trembling look of the housekeeper, Changsun Wuji suddenly reflected on whether he really had a bad temper, which was why he was so unpleasant in front of his colleagues and children.Even though he was in a high position, his subordinates all spoke for Qin Yuan, and even his own son got better with Qin Yuan.
"What do you think of my temper?" Changsun Wuji asked the housekeeper.
The butler hurriedly agreed and nodded: "Okay...very good!"
Changsun Wuji knew the butler was lying when he saw the trembling look of the housekeeper!
Changsun Wuji was so angry that he opened his mouth and wanted to scold him, but then he realized that he seemed to have a bad temper.He tried his best to restrain his temper, only sighed, and sent the housekeeper to leave.
The butler ran away in a hurry like a little rabbit that had been let loose.
Seeing the butler like this, Changsun Wuji became angry again and had to reflect again. Maybe he really had a bad temper and couldn't control himself.
……
After Qin Yuan sent congratulatory gifts to Changsun Chong, he ordered someone to prepare another gift and send it to Dai Zhou's home. It was basically dried fruit, cherry wine and the like, as a way of expressing his affection.
Qin Yuan would never give valuables such as gold and silver to avoid suspicion of bribery.And this kind of gift has his own characteristics. As long as those people eat his dried fruits, they will definitely love them, so it is considered the right gift.
After Qin Yuan rode to Dali Temple, Dai Zhou's servants were already waiting at the door.After Qin Yuan got off the car, the servants immediately came to invite Qin Yuan, asking him to have a banquet in Dai's mansion at noon.
Qin Yuan smiled and agreed, "If there is no business, I will definitely go."
After Qin Yuan sent away the servants of the Dai family, he saw Changsun Wuji's carriage approaching, so he simply didn't go in, and waited for Changsun Wuji to get off the horse before entering together.
After Changsun Wuji got out of the car, seeing Qin Yuan waiting for him, he felt in his heart that Qin Yuan was quite polite, but he sneered and sighed: "You are really busy today."
"I haven't had any cases recently, so I'm really leisurely. I'm planning to ask someone to review the unsolved cases of the past two years, and urge my subordinates to handle them." Qin Yuan explained.
While talking, Qin Yuan secretly watched Changsun Wuji's expression, and found that Changsun Wuji had no tendency to throw fire today, which was a bit new, after all, he was already so angry with Changsun Wuji yesterday.
"Are you not angry anymore?" Qin Yuan asked with a low laugh.
Changsun Wuji squinted at Qin Yuan: "Why am I angry? Qin Shaoqing did everything reasonably, and gave me a rude roar out of thin air, and cleverly helped me drive away the assassin. I am so grateful to Qin Shaoqing that it is too late. How can there be any reason to be angry with Qin Shaoqing?"
Qin Yuan nodded in agreement, and decided to continue with his plan to anger Zhangsun Wuji.
"Indeed, most people won't be angry with me, except for those who are extremely narrow-minded and bad-tempered, they will care about me."
"What do you mean?" Changsun Wuji asked Qin Yuan with a gloomy expression on his face.
Qin Yuan: "Of course I am exaggerating that my eldest grandson is not an ordinary person, he is extraordinary, and he is absolutely not mediocre."
Anger suddenly rose in Changsun Wuji's heart, and he really wanted to tear him up on the spot.Today he had decided to control his temper, so he endured it, snorted coldly, and walked away.
After Qin Yuan returned to the room, he picked out a few outstanding cases with obvious doubts, drew key witnesses, and asked her to ask for apologies, and asked her to ask the testimony of the relevant witnesses of these outstanding cases to see if they were telling the truth.
Apologizing and indifferently making a face on the floor, he left after taking the order.
Qin Yuan ordered Wang Zhen to watch her secretly.
Wang Zhen was very afraid that he would not be able to control her, "I see that she is absolutely unwilling to help the government investigate the case, and she puts on a dead face every day, talking to us people, arrogant and stinging."
"Don't look at it too closely, it will make her disgusted. The cases I picked are all victims of young daughters, born in poverty, and about the same age as the apology. When you investigate the case, tell her more about these victims. Miserable and pitiful." Qin Yuan told Wang Zhen that Xie Gui is actually a kind-hearted person, but she must be guided to understand that the real meaning of helping the government solve the case is to avenge others, and she will gradually like what she does.
After Qin Yuan's suggestion, Wang Zhen learned a lot, agreed and left.
Not long after, someone came from the palace to order Changsun Wuji and Qin Yuan to have an audience.
The two arrived at the gate of the palace in a carriage one after the other, and entered the Hall of Liangyi one after the other. During this period, they were silent to each other, not saying a word.
Li Shimin saw that the situation of the two of them was not right, and asked Changsun Wuji about the assassin with great concern, "There is an assassin who broke into Dali Temple in the daytime and assassinated you, it is so daring and lawless!"
Changsun Wuji agreed in embarrassment, never expecting that even Li Shimin would know about this matter.If Li Shimin learns that he is lying, then he has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor.Changsun Wuji was so worried that he couldn't help but glared at Qin Yuan complaining, blaming him as the source of the trouble.If there hadn't been Qin Yuan's yell yesterday, the current situation wouldn't exist.
Qin Yuan repeatedly responded to Li Shimin's words, followed by scolding the assassin for his audacity, and suggested that the matter must be investigated strictly.
Li Shimin nodded in agreement.
"But this person's lightness kung fu must be very good, otherwise how could he escape under the noses of everyone in Dali Temple. I'm afraid this kind of arrogant person will be hard to catch, unless he fights poison with poison."
Qin Yuan suggested that Li Shimin can recruit capable people and strangers, who are also equally powerful.If the assassin dared to come next time, it would definitely not be easy to get away.
Li Shimin nodded, feeling that what Qin Yuan said was very reasonable.
"But how to find such a genius?"
"I propose to use Fang Ding again," Qin Yuan bowed, and replied in a hearty voice, "He can fly on water, but there is no trace of stepping on the snow, no one can match him in lightness kung fu."
Li Shimin frowned, "But Fang Ding—"
"Your Majesty, Fang Ding's poisoning of ministers before was entirely due to being controlled by shopkeeper Zhuang's thinning technique. The pain caused by the sudden attack is like a thousand insects eating bones, and ordinary people can't bear it at all. Fang Ding committed the crime under coercion. , not because of his original intentions. Reusing Fang Ding and making the best use of him is actually a good choice to make him commit crimes and meritorious deeds." Qin Yuan explained.
Changsun Wuji was listening in disbelief, and looked at Qin Yuan in surprise.This fellow is so shameless that he actually took advantage of his non-existent 'assassin' incident to recommend Fang Ding who was originally 'unable to be hired' in disguise.
Changsun Wuji was so angry that he vomited blood in his heart. Qin Yuan first coveted his unique sword, and then took the opportunity to reuse his favorite colleagues.It's like all the cheap things are taken by this fellow!
Li Shimin is still worried that Fang Ding will not be disciplined, although this person is indeed a talent just like the apology.But I'm afraid that there is a problem with this person's heart, which will cause trouble in the future.
"Are you willing to be a guarantor?" Li Shimin asked Qin Yuan.
"I am willing to be a guarantor." Qin Yuan responded.
"Okay." Because Li Shimin believed in Qin Yuan, he chose to trust the person he trusted, sure.
Only then did Changsun Wuji come back to his senses, "Your Majesty—"
Li Shimin signaled to Changsun Wuji that there is no need to say too much, "See first and then act."
After he came out of Taiji Palace, Changsun Wuji scolded Qin Yuan for being too aggressive.
"Is grandson finally going to get angry with me?" Qin Yuan asked.
Changsun Wuji once again thought of the resolution he made this morning, and now he couldn't bear it anymore, so he didn't need to bear it any longer.
"How?" Changsun Wuji asked provocatively.
Qin Yuan remained silent, Changsun Wuji scolded Qin Yuan.Qin Yuan waited for Changsun Wuji to finish speaking, then silently bowed his head and saluted Changsun Wuji, then silently watched Changsun Wuji leave, without refuting Changsun Wuji's words, and honestly apologized.
After Changsun Wuji finished spreading the fire, he sat in the carriage, feeling comfortable physically and mentally, not to mention how happy he was.He's going home now to celebrate his son's birthday.He didn't believe it anymore, his own son could be snatched away by that fellow Qin Yuan.
Changsun Wuji prepared a generous gift as Changsun Chong's birthday present. Changsun Chong was very happy and thanked Changsun Wuji respectfully.
Changsun Wuji was about to ask Changsun Chong what the first gift Qin Yuan gave him was, when he first heard Changsun Chong speak and told himself that he also had a gift for himself.
The eldest grandson Wuji was very happy, "As expected, my son has grown up and is sensible, and he knows how to honor his parents, so he is very gratified for his father."
Changsun Chong gave a large brocade box to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji opened the brocade box with a smile, and when he saw the contents in the brocade box, his smile gradually disappeared.
Changsun Wuji looked at Changsun Chong seriously: "This is?"
"This saber was given to me by Uncle Qin Shi. My son knows that this saber means a lot to my father." Chang Sun Chong explained.
"Why did you Qin Shishu give you this?" Changsun Wuji asked again.
"Qin Shishu said that he didn't really want this knife at first, and he thought about finding a reason to return it to his father in a few days, but he was afraid of giving it to his father directly, which would ruin his father's face, so he gave it to me. He also repeatedly praised his father for being wise and capable. Taught me to be such a filial son." Chang Sun Chong explained with a smile.
Changsun Wuji fell silent, doubting himself in his heart.For Qin Yuan, is he too fussy?
Not long after, Qin Yuan sent a letter to Changsun Wuji.
Qin Yuan explained to Changsun Wuji in the letter that the reason why he took away Changsun Wuji's knife was because Dai Zhou turned back suddenly, so he explained casually in a panic without thinking too much.The main reason is that I am afraid that things will be exposed, and it will be more troublesome for Dai Zhou to find out.
Of course, Changsun Wuji understood that the 'reveal of the incident' referred to the fact that he lied about being an assassin.It is a big deal for officials to lie, especially in Dali Temple, which is in charge of prisons.Dai Zhou has always enforced the law impartially, and he is still straight-tempered. It is really troublesome for him to know this matter.
It turned out that Qin Yuan had good intentions.
Changsun Wuji suddenly remembered that when he was out of the palace, he scolded Qin Yuan fiercely, but he kept silent and completely forbeared himself.
Originally, the two of them bickered before and were not serious.This time, it was precisely because of self-care that the matter was escalated to such a serious level.Now that he took the initiative to send a letter of apology, and returned the knife long ago, no matter how he thought about it, he ignored it, and he went too far.
After Changsun Wuji reviewed himself several times, he felt more and more sorry for Qin Yuan.
On the second day, when Changsun Wuji came to Dali Temple again, he planned to have a good talk with Qin Yuan, but was told that Qin Yuan brought the apology and others to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to interrogate the prisoners, and then he had to go to several squares in Chang'an City Question the witnesses again.
Changsun Wuji waited for a day, but Qin Yuan did not come back.
On the third day, Changsun Wuji rushed to find Qin Yuan early, because he knew that Qin Yuan had the habit of arriving at Dali Temple early.Sure enough, he bumped into him, Changsun Wuji entered Qin Yuan's room, and saw him frowning sadly.
"Is there something on your mind?" Changsun Wuji asked.
After Qin Yuan saw Changsun Wuji, he didn't show any special emotion, just chatting with Changsun Wuji as before.
"Worried and panicked."
"What are you worried about?" Changsun Wuji felt that he could help Qin Yuan solve his troubles, which could be considered to resolve their previous embarrassment.
"Recently, I found out that many people want to say goodbye to me. Qin Yuan patted the stack of letters on the table.
"This is a good thing, what is there to worry about?" Changsun Wuji asked.
"It's not a good thing for me. Grandson also understands my eccentricities. I said that if I don't see the person I like the most, I won't marry in this life." Qin Yuan said.
"That's not difficult, to be honest, just refuse." Changsun Wuji said.
"The difficulty lies in this family." Qin Yuan picked out the letter from Yuchi's residence and handed it to Zhangsun Wuji. "I heard that he is unusual. If he asks the saint to propose marriage, the saint will most likely agree."
Changsun Wuji glanced down and nodded in agreement: "That's true."
"That's why I'm so worried." When Qin Yuan sighed, he quietly glanced at Changsun Wuji's reaction from the corner of his eye.
After Changsun Wuji pondered for a moment, he said to Qin Yuan: "I will help you find a solution for this matter."
"Thank you, thank you very much." Qin Yuan saluted immediately, fearing that Changsun Wuji would regret it, "In addition to the saints in the court, there is also Changsun Gong. I am afraid that no one will be able to convince Yuchi Gong."
Changsun Wuji glanced back at Qin Yuan, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't tell for a while.
Three days later, Qin Yuan solved the backlog of six unsolved cases in Dali Temple, captured four murderers and wanted two fugitive murderers.
The speed of handling cases is unprecedented.
When everyone in Dali Temple praised Qin Shaoqing one after another, they also got dried dates from Qin Shaoqing.The jujube tasted so delicious, they had never eaten such a delicious and sweet jujube.The skin is so thin that you can barely feel it when you eat it, the meat is thick, soft and elastic, and the jujube core is extremely small.
Dried jujubes are also durable to storage, so each of us took a catty home. The quantity is not small, and we can enjoy it with our family members.
At this moment, after Changsun Wuji read the case reported by Qin Yuan, he took a bite of the dried dates he sent and felt better.
Although he had eaten this dried date long ago, he just couldn't get tired of eating it.Two days ago, Changsun Chong received some for his birthday, but Changsun Wuji ate a whole plate and felt it was not enough.
"You are amazing. You solved so many cases so quickly and within three days."
"Thanks to the great grandson's teaching." Qin Yuan said with a smile.
"Don't say these compliments. I have several positions. I don't really have much control over the affairs of Dali Temple. I just make up my mind on major issues. The main affairs are still in charge of you and Dai and Sun." Changsun Wuji sighed, "When I recommended you, I didn't think you were talented enough to be the young minister of Dali Temple. But you have proved your ability, so that everyone dare not look down on you. Now It's even more so. I'm afraid it won't be long before you will really take the position of Dali Temple Minister, at the same level as me."
"It's still far away. After all, I just became an official not long ago, so I don't have enough qualifications." Qin Yuan really wanted to be promoted quickly, so that he would have less food from the farm.But his previous promotion speed has broken through the impossible, and it is impossible for Li Shimin to give him a second time under pressure. In short, it is not easy to be promoted again in a short period of time, unless he makes great contributions.
"Even if it doesn't work this year, maybe it will work next year." Changsun Wuji is very optimistic about Qin Yuan now, and told Qin Yuan that if he has a chance in the future, he will definitely recommend him in front of Li Shimin.
Qin Yuan: "Then thank you, grandson—"
"The premise is that you don't get mad at me anymore!" Changsun Wuji hastily added.
Qin Yuan touched his nose in embarrassment, trying to deny it, but saw Changsun Wuji cast a stern look over him.Thinking that he was still begging his eldest grandson Wuji, Qin Yuan wisely kept silent.
Changsun Wuji became more angry, and said to Qin Yuan, "I went to talk to Yuchi Jingde."
"How?" Qin Yuan stretched his neck and asked, he was concerned about this issue.
"As you expected, he really likes you very much, and he is thinking of choosing an auspicious day to enter the palace to ask for orders. He is willing to make his own opinions and doesn't ask for opinions, because he knows that you are a temperamental man. The people who are here will definitely disagree, so they just want to ask for an order and wait until the matter is settled."
"This is too difficult, what should I do now?" Qin Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji anxiously, waiting for him to speak.
Changsun Wuji stared at Qin Yuan silently while eating dates, and remained silent for a while.
Qin Yuan insisted on looking eagerly at Changsun Wuji, waiting for him.
"Don't think I don't know your little thoughts, you just plan to let me help you."
Changsun Wuji had almost finished eating the jujube before making a sound.
"I've thought about it, and there are three best ways: First, ask him for a decree before he asks for a marriage, but this kind of decree is too strange to ask. Even if you get it by luck, if you don't have any good reasons Completely reject, escaped this time, there will be another time. Second, you are also afraid of trouble, offending Yuchi Jingde. Simply say that you don’t like the daughter of Captain Chi Jingde’s family, and you will have a bad relationship with him from then on.以后上下朝时刻防备着,以免挨揍。第三,在他请旨之前订亲,他尉迟敬德的女儿总不会嫁给你做小妾。”
"..."
Qin Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji speechlessly.
Changsun Wuji: "Thinking about it, smart people will choose the third method, which can solve the problem without offending Yuchi Jingde completely. I thought about it, if you don't want to do what a husband should do, then Arrange for a dying person to marry you. After you get married, she can also earn a royal order to be buried with honor, and you can wait for a year for your wife's funeral. If he, Yuchi Jingde, still wants to make up your mind, we can do it again Marry one who is going to die, if not, then three, four... After all, it will prolong the time, and then you will have a good reputation as a wife. In the future, not only the Yuchi family, but also families with daughters all over the country will no longer dare to marry you, so Your wish will be fulfilled."
Changsun Wuji laughed as he spoke, feeling that Qin Yuan's doing so was considered hospice care for the dying.After all, not every girl in the boudoir has the opportunity to obtain this imperial status.Anyway, it is not a lie for everyone to clarify the purpose and take what they need.
"What the hell idea. There are too many variables in this third method. Not only do you have to keep looking for someone, but if the married person suddenly recovers from illness, how do you deal with it, or does his natal family cause trouble?" Qin Yuan shook his head contemptuously With a 'chi' sound, he lamented that Changsun Wuji was not sincere enough, "You should directly convince Yuchi Jingde for me, saying that I have various diseases, and it's okay to be abnormal."
"I know Yuchi Jingde's temperament too well, it's definitely not possible. Because you have had unpleasant contacts before, he will definitely feel that you deliberately find fault and refuse, which will only irritate him and want to deal with you even more. Unless you take off your pants, in the He has proved himself incompetent in front of his eyes. Can you?" Changsun Wuji asked.
Qin Yuan: "Of course not!" Whether you are a fairy or a human being, you have dignity!
After much deliberation, Qin Yuan chose the second option.
"I don't believe it anymore, he can really kill me, so what if he offends him!"
"Okay, have the backbone!" Changsun Wuji laughed, and immediately got up to enter the palace, "I will enter the palace now, and explain your feelings to the queen, and let her help you explain it in front of the saint. Since you have such courage, She'll probably fight for you, too."
"Help me to thank Empress Empress." Qin Yuan got up and said.
After Qin Yuan watched his grandson Wuji leave with a smile, he went to discuss the matter with Qin Qiong, and troubled him to help protect himself in the future.
"You said you, it would be better if you just listened to me and chose a family at the beginning, so you wouldn't have trouble today. Why don't you want a woman so much?" Qin Qiong looked at Qin Qiong in wonder, suddenly realized something, and reached out to touch Qin Yuan's neck ,
Qin Yuan was stunned, "What are you doing?"
"In ancient times, Hua Mulan joined the army in place of her father, and now there is Qin Yuan dressed as a woman in court." Qin Qiong told Qin Yuan to take off his clothes quickly after expressing his doubts.
"Why do I have to take off my clothes!" Qin Yuan scolded Qin Qiong for being headless, he had obviously touched his Adam's apple, so why not take it off.
"But your Adam's apple is not obvious, and besides, there are some women with Adam's apple." Qin Qiong insisted on identifying Qin Yuan's gender, "No wonder you like to live alone and don't like people to serve you, so it makes sense—"
Qin Yuan grabbed a handful of dried dates from his sleeve and slapped Qin Qiong on the face, "Fuck you Tongshun! Break up the relationship!"
"You've been poked in my weakness, you've become angry from embarrassment..." Qin Qiong stuffed the two dates he caught by chance into his mouth, chewed with puffed cheeks, and smiled happily, "That's all, I'm just joking with you of."
"What the hell did I encounter all day, they are all unconscionable bastards! Have you forgotten that if you didn't have me back then, you would have lost your life!" Qin Yuan scolded Qin Qiong.
"I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten. But why can't you marry a wife?"
"I won't marry you!"
"Okay, okay, okay, whatever, whatever you want." Qin Qiong gave in, "Don't worry, big brother will definitely send the most powerful master to protect your safety."
Five days later, it will be an auspicious day.
Qin Yuan harvested the bitter vegetables early in the morning, which were astringent and bitter, making people frown.
After Qin Yuan arrived at Dali Temple, he was thinking about how to share his worries for Li Shimin, so a eunuch came to announce Qin Yuan's entry into the palace.
In the Taiji Palace, Yuchi Jingde stood respectfully in the center of the hall.
After Qin Yuan arrived, he greeted Li Shimin and glanced at Yuchi Jingde from the corner of his eye.His face was stubborn, as if he was not convinced in every possible way.
"Ask him yourself." Li Shimin said to Yuchi Jingde.
Because Qin Yuan knew Li Shimin's mood in advance, he paid special attention to it. There was actually a hint of impatience in Li Shimin's tone.He is in a bad mood today, and it is inevitable that he will be even more upset when he encounters such trivial matters.
When Yuchi Jingde heard the words, he turned around, faced Qin Yuan directly, and questioned him: "I heard that Qin Shaoqing is determined not to marry me in Yuchi's house, so he specifically explained the situation to His Majesty."
Qin Yuan bowed slightly, acquiescing in silence.
Seeing Qin Yuan's reaction, Yuchi Jingde became even more imposing.He squinted his eyes and exuded hostility, and immediately asked Qin Yuan in a sharp voice: "Today we are in front of His Majesty in the Hall of Liangyi. You are a man, so you don't have to beat around the bush when you speak. Just say it, why don't you like my Yuchi family? Isn't the daughter of our Yuchi family not good enough for you?"
"Yes, it's not worthy." Qin Yuan replied lightly.
Qin Yuan glanced at Changsun Wuji, and tentatively asked Dai Zhou, "Am I good for that?"
"Of course that's fine." Dai Zhou smiled.
With a sullen face, Changsun Wuji took off the saber at his waist and put it on the table with a snap.
Changsun Wuji's knife is not inlaid with gold, silver and precious stones, but one can tell at a glance that the material used for this knife is extraordinary, it must be made of the best minerals, smelted into steel and then refined.The scabbard is engraved with eagle and auspicious cloud patterns, the carving is fine, the texture is cold and moist, and it feels very good.There is a fierce tiger with its jaws wide open on the side of the knife, and when it draws out the knife, the blade is so bright that it can almost blind people's eyes.The head of the knife is curved upwards and has two edges. This kind of knife is the most powerful for killing people.
"Put it away, don't hurt yourself when the time comes." Changsun Wuji warned Qin Yuan word by word.
"Elder grandson, don't worry." Qin Yuan took the knife and asked Dai Zhou if he had something to say to grandson Wuji.Seeing Dai Zhou nodding, Qin Yuan immediately said goodbye to the two with a smile.
This is not a farewell, but an escape.
Changsun Wuji stared at Qin Yuan's back with displeasure, his eyes filled with murderous aura of "he must be killed".
Dai Zhou saluted, and respectfully explained to Changsun Wuji his intention to celebrate his mother's birthday.After waiting for a while, Dai Zhou didn't see Changsun Wuji's response. He looked up at Changsun Wuji in puzzlement, and found that Changsun Wuji was showing a face of displeasure, as if he wanted to kill him soon.
Dai Zhou was very puzzled why Changsun Wuji treated him with such a bad attitude.After thinking about it, he only thought of the only possibility, that he had a quarrel with Changsun Wuji just yesterday.
"If the eldest grandson had a dispute with you yesterday, he wanted to stop the subordinate from performing filial piety, but the subordinate would definitely not follow." Dai Zhou was also angry. He provoked whoever he provoked, why did Changsun Wuji miss every time? Get angry at him for no reason.
Changsun Wuji came back to his senses and saw Dai Zhou staring at him with a hard face, only then did he realize what he said.
"I'm not sure, why did you suddenly get angry?"
"But the way Changsun Gong looked at the officials just now—" Dai Zhou paused. He felt that the theory of this matter was unclear. Holding back in his heart, "That's all, thank you, grandson, for your approval, and I will leave as an official."
Changsun Wuji: "..."
The feng shui of Dali Temple might be at odds with him!
After Changsun Wuji returned home, Changsun Chong came to greet him, feeling even more annoyed for no reason.
"Let me ask you, why didn't you tell me about the unlucky thing that Qin Shishu showed you?"
"Uncle Qin said that he was investigating the case, and his father was his superior. The son thought that his father already knew about it." Chang Sun Chong explained meekly.
"Just to investigate the case, he shouldn't ask you. There are so many people around him, he can ask anyone! Look at you, you are so stupid, you don't know if you are tricked by him!" Changsun Wuji reprimanded Changsun Chong. Head, warn him that if Qin Yuan does similar things to him in the future, he will report to himself immediately.
Chang Sun Chong obediently agreed, but he didn't understand. This matter was obviously over yesterday, but today his father Zensheng brought it up again, and he was still so angry.
After the eldest grandson rushed back to the house, he summoned his younger siblings and reminded them to be more careful in the past few days. My father is not in a good mood recently. It is best to avoid wandering around his father these two days.
After dark, Chang Sun Chong was sitting in the room practicing calligraphy, when the attendants around him suddenly came to whisper to Chang Sun Chong.
"A message came from Qin Shaoqing next door, asking Dalang to gather by the wall."
Chang Sun Chong stopped writing and was stunned for a moment, "By the wall?"
"It's the wall adjacent to our mansion and Qin's mansion." The follower explained.
Chang Sun Chong went as he said, and before he reached the wall, he saw a figure swaying on the wall of his house from a distance.Changsun Chong picked up the lantern and looked carefully, and it was really him, Qin Shishu, who was holding a knife at the moment, sitting on the wall with a worried face.
"What is Qin Shishu doing?" Chang Sun Chong couldn't help laughing.
When Qin Yuan saw that the eldest grandson was coming, he hurriedly ordered the servants behind him to bring up the ladder, and then set it up to the eldest grandson's mansion.Changsun Chong hesitated, climbed up the ladder, sat side by side with Qin Yuan on the wall, and had a panoramic view of the night view of the entire Changsun Mansion.In such a quiet night, sitting on a high place overlooking all this, there is an indescribable sense of pleasure.
"this is for you."
A knife immediately fell heavily into Chang Sun Chong's arms.Chang Sun Chong took a closer look and realized that it belonged to his father's saber. His father had always cherished this saber, and no one would give it up even if he touched it.
"Why does Uncle Shi have my father's knife?" Zhang Sun Chong asked in surprise.
"Of course it's your uncle, I'm too powerful. Your father was grateful to me, so he gave me this knife as a thank-you gift on impulse. After thinking about it, I think it's inappropriate for me to accept such an expensive gift. If you directly If you return it to your father, your father will feel ashamed, so just give it to you, and you will return it to him." Qin Yuan said 'understanding'.
The eldest grandson hurriedly thanked Qin Yuan, "My father really loves this knife, but he can give this knife to Uncle Shi, it seems to be a gift from the heart. How dare I take it back, Uncle Qin should keep it."
"But it may not be sincere, it's really just a whim, did you find that your father's temper is a little bit bad today?" Qin Yuan tentatively asked his eldest grandson Chong.
Chang Sun Chong nodded immediately.
"Then it's probably because I don't have this personal item with me, so I don't feel pleasing to look at. Besides, I have already accepted his wishes, but this knife is really useless to me, so you don't want to refuse." Qin Yuan persisted.
Seeing that Qin Yuan insisted on this, Chang Sun Chong accepted it with a smile.It's a pity that he is sitting on the wall now, otherwise he would definitely stand up and salute Qin Yuan again and again, thanking him for pondering and understanding his father's thoughts so much.
"But Qin Shishu is looking for me, why did he climb the wall to meet here?" Chang Sun Chong asked doubtfully.
"I'll knock on the door of your house to look for you at night, and your father will definitely get the news, so you won't have to be tossed about. It's not as convenient as we are. Besides, I want to take you to my house, Look at things, this is the shortcut." Qin Yuan smiled and beckoned his eldest grandson to climb the wall to his house, and then led his eldest grandson to the back garden.
By the lake in the back garden, there is a circle of red lights, which is really beautiful.Chang Sun Chong thought that Qin Yuan was just taking himself to the garden to enjoy the lanterns, but soon he found several fish hanging from the branches by the lake, all of them hanging above the water.
Chang Sun Chong had heard before that the ghost screams in the back garden of the Qin Mansion had other mysteries, so he immediately understood that Qin Yuan wanted to show him the giant salamander.
Chang Sun Chong was born in Gaomen since he was a child, but he has never seen giant salamanders that are only found in deep mountains and streams.
Chang Sun Chong was immediately interested and his eyes lit up, "I heard that the giant salamander sounds like a baby?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a short cry of 'ahoo' from the other side of the lake.
Qin Yuan put his index finger against his mouth, signaled Chang Sun Chong to keep quiet, and squatted down on the bank with him, waiting quietly.
Changsun Chong nodded, and suddenly heard the sound of water, and saw the round head as big and flat as a fifteen or six-year-old child jumping out of the water's edge to eat the hanging fish.After the giant salamander bit the fish, it sank into the water. After a while, its head popped up again.
Only then did Chang Sun Chong see the whole body of the giant salamander, which was dark brown with four claws. Its body looked like a gecko, and its skin looked like that of a catfish, but with grainy protrusions.
Ah, ah, ah——
The giant salamander suddenly made a very powerful and short cry.
Chang Sun Chong was overwhelmed with surprise, staring at the giant salamander with his eyes wide open, with a very excited and brilliant smile on his face.When the giant salamander finally crawled back into the water, Chang Sun Chong raised his eyebrows and said to Qin Yuan, "It's really interesting!"
"I also find it interesting. If you want to watch it in the future, you can come at night. They hide in the cave during the day and only come out at night." Qin Yuan explained.
Changsun Chong laughed and agreed, thanking Qin Yuan again and again.
"That's right!" Qin Yuan was very happy to see Chang Sun Chong happy, and patted him on the shoulder, "I usually see that you are well-behaved and don't laugh loudly, so I guess you have restrained yourself for too long. I heard that tomorrow will be you On your birthday, this 'laughing' is my birthday gift to you."
Chang Sun Chong was startled, then turned to look at Qin Yuan: "Uncle Qin Shi actually knows my birthday?"
"That's natural. Who are you, Qin Shishu?"
Qin Yuan and Chang Sun Chong laughed at the same time.
The next day, Changsun Chong walked briskly to make peace with Changsun Wuji.Changsun Wuji only told Changsun Chong to be obedient in class and focus more on his studies.Chang Sun Chong was a little disappointed to hear that his father didn't say a word about his birthday, so he obediently agreed and went.
Not long after, the mansion accepted the gift from the Qin mansion, and the housekeeper came here to sue the eldest grandson Wuji.
"What gift?" Changsun Wuji asked in confusion.
"The birthday gift for Da Lang, Da Lang was very happy when he received it. He also said that it would be fine to just give one. Unexpectedly, Uncle Qin gave a second gift." The housekeeper laughed.
Changsun Wuji suddenly remembered that today is indeed Changsun Chong's birthday, and his wife reminded him last night, but he forgot about it this morning.
Changsun Wuji asked the butler what kind of gift these two gifts were.
"The last gift is just some dried dates, plum jam and cherry wine, etc. It is not worth much. The first gift is not known, it must have not been sent from the mansion, so the slaves don't know about it." The steward told Changsun Wuji explained.
Changsun Wuji frowned, "Since when did he have such a good relationship with Chong'er?"
"Qin Shaoqing has a good temper, never puts on airs, and can talk smartly, so he should be easy to get along with anyone." The housekeeper sighed.
Changsun Wuji raised his eyebrows.
The butler was so frightened that he immediately retracted his neck and silenced, and respectfully apologized to Mr. Changsun Wuji.
Seeing the trembling look of the housekeeper, Changsun Wuji suddenly reflected on whether he really had a bad temper, which was why he was so unpleasant in front of his colleagues and children.Even though he was in a high position, his subordinates all spoke for Qin Yuan, and even his own son got better with Qin Yuan.
"What do you think of my temper?" Changsun Wuji asked the housekeeper.
The butler hurriedly agreed and nodded: "Okay...very good!"
Changsun Wuji knew the butler was lying when he saw the trembling look of the housekeeper!
Changsun Wuji was so angry that he opened his mouth and wanted to scold him, but then he realized that he seemed to have a bad temper.He tried his best to restrain his temper, only sighed, and sent the housekeeper to leave.
The butler ran away in a hurry like a little rabbit that had been let loose.
Seeing the butler like this, Changsun Wuji became angry again and had to reflect again. Maybe he really had a bad temper and couldn't control himself.
……
After Qin Yuan sent congratulatory gifts to Changsun Chong, he ordered someone to prepare another gift and send it to Dai Zhou's home. It was basically dried fruit, cherry wine and the like, as a way of expressing his affection.
Qin Yuan would never give valuables such as gold and silver to avoid suspicion of bribery.And this kind of gift has his own characteristics. As long as those people eat his dried fruits, they will definitely love them, so it is considered the right gift.
After Qin Yuan rode to Dali Temple, Dai Zhou's servants were already waiting at the door.After Qin Yuan got off the car, the servants immediately came to invite Qin Yuan, asking him to have a banquet in Dai's mansion at noon.
Qin Yuan smiled and agreed, "If there is no business, I will definitely go."
After Qin Yuan sent away the servants of the Dai family, he saw Changsun Wuji's carriage approaching, so he simply didn't go in, and waited for Changsun Wuji to get off the horse before entering together.
After Changsun Wuji got out of the car, seeing Qin Yuan waiting for him, he felt in his heart that Qin Yuan was quite polite, but he sneered and sighed: "You are really busy today."
"I haven't had any cases recently, so I'm really leisurely. I'm planning to ask someone to review the unsolved cases of the past two years, and urge my subordinates to handle them." Qin Yuan explained.
While talking, Qin Yuan secretly watched Changsun Wuji's expression, and found that Changsun Wuji had no tendency to throw fire today, which was a bit new, after all, he was already so angry with Changsun Wuji yesterday.
"Are you not angry anymore?" Qin Yuan asked with a low laugh.
Changsun Wuji squinted at Qin Yuan: "Why am I angry? Qin Shaoqing did everything reasonably, and gave me a rude roar out of thin air, and cleverly helped me drive away the assassin. I am so grateful to Qin Shaoqing that it is too late. How can there be any reason to be angry with Qin Shaoqing?"
Qin Yuan nodded in agreement, and decided to continue with his plan to anger Zhangsun Wuji.
"Indeed, most people won't be angry with me, except for those who are extremely narrow-minded and bad-tempered, they will care about me."
"What do you mean?" Changsun Wuji asked Qin Yuan with a gloomy expression on his face.
Qin Yuan: "Of course I am exaggerating that my eldest grandson is not an ordinary person, he is extraordinary, and he is absolutely not mediocre."
Anger suddenly rose in Changsun Wuji's heart, and he really wanted to tear him up on the spot.Today he had decided to control his temper, so he endured it, snorted coldly, and walked away.
After Qin Yuan returned to the room, he picked out a few outstanding cases with obvious doubts, drew key witnesses, and asked her to ask for apologies, and asked her to ask the testimony of the relevant witnesses of these outstanding cases to see if they were telling the truth.
Apologizing and indifferently making a face on the floor, he left after taking the order.
Qin Yuan ordered Wang Zhen to watch her secretly.
Wang Zhen was very afraid that he would not be able to control her, "I see that she is absolutely unwilling to help the government investigate the case, and she puts on a dead face every day, talking to us people, arrogant and stinging."
"Don't look at it too closely, it will make her disgusted. The cases I picked are all victims of young daughters, born in poverty, and about the same age as the apology. When you investigate the case, tell her more about these victims. Miserable and pitiful." Qin Yuan told Wang Zhen that Xie Gui is actually a kind-hearted person, but she must be guided to understand that the real meaning of helping the government solve the case is to avenge others, and she will gradually like what she does.
After Qin Yuan's suggestion, Wang Zhen learned a lot, agreed and left.
Not long after, someone came from the palace to order Changsun Wuji and Qin Yuan to have an audience.
The two arrived at the gate of the palace in a carriage one after the other, and entered the Hall of Liangyi one after the other. During this period, they were silent to each other, not saying a word.
Li Shimin saw that the situation of the two of them was not right, and asked Changsun Wuji about the assassin with great concern, "There is an assassin who broke into Dali Temple in the daytime and assassinated you, it is so daring and lawless!"
Changsun Wuji agreed in embarrassment, never expecting that even Li Shimin would know about this matter.If Li Shimin learns that he is lying, then he has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor.Changsun Wuji was so worried that he couldn't help but glared at Qin Yuan complaining, blaming him as the source of the trouble.If there hadn't been Qin Yuan's yell yesterday, the current situation wouldn't exist.
Qin Yuan repeatedly responded to Li Shimin's words, followed by scolding the assassin for his audacity, and suggested that the matter must be investigated strictly.
Li Shimin nodded in agreement.
"But this person's lightness kung fu must be very good, otherwise how could he escape under the noses of everyone in Dali Temple. I'm afraid this kind of arrogant person will be hard to catch, unless he fights poison with poison."
Qin Yuan suggested that Li Shimin can recruit capable people and strangers, who are also equally powerful.If the assassin dared to come next time, it would definitely not be easy to get away.
Li Shimin nodded, feeling that what Qin Yuan said was very reasonable.
"But how to find such a genius?"
"I propose to use Fang Ding again," Qin Yuan bowed, and replied in a hearty voice, "He can fly on water, but there is no trace of stepping on the snow, no one can match him in lightness kung fu."
Li Shimin frowned, "But Fang Ding—"
"Your Majesty, Fang Ding's poisoning of ministers before was entirely due to being controlled by shopkeeper Zhuang's thinning technique. The pain caused by the sudden attack is like a thousand insects eating bones, and ordinary people can't bear it at all. Fang Ding committed the crime under coercion. , not because of his original intentions. Reusing Fang Ding and making the best use of him is actually a good choice to make him commit crimes and meritorious deeds." Qin Yuan explained.
Changsun Wuji was listening in disbelief, and looked at Qin Yuan in surprise.This fellow is so shameless that he actually took advantage of his non-existent 'assassin' incident to recommend Fang Ding who was originally 'unable to be hired' in disguise.
Changsun Wuji was so angry that he vomited blood in his heart. Qin Yuan first coveted his unique sword, and then took the opportunity to reuse his favorite colleagues.It's like all the cheap things are taken by this fellow!
Li Shimin is still worried that Fang Ding will not be disciplined, although this person is indeed a talent just like the apology.But I'm afraid that there is a problem with this person's heart, which will cause trouble in the future.
"Are you willing to be a guarantor?" Li Shimin asked Qin Yuan.
"I am willing to be a guarantor." Qin Yuan responded.
"Okay." Because Li Shimin believed in Qin Yuan, he chose to trust the person he trusted, sure.
Only then did Changsun Wuji come back to his senses, "Your Majesty—"
Li Shimin signaled to Changsun Wuji that there is no need to say too much, "See first and then act."
After he came out of Taiji Palace, Changsun Wuji scolded Qin Yuan for being too aggressive.
"Is grandson finally going to get angry with me?" Qin Yuan asked.
Changsun Wuji once again thought of the resolution he made this morning, and now he couldn't bear it anymore, so he didn't need to bear it any longer.
"How?" Changsun Wuji asked provocatively.
Qin Yuan remained silent, Changsun Wuji scolded Qin Yuan.Qin Yuan waited for Changsun Wuji to finish speaking, then silently bowed his head and saluted Changsun Wuji, then silently watched Changsun Wuji leave, without refuting Changsun Wuji's words, and honestly apologized.
After Changsun Wuji finished spreading the fire, he sat in the carriage, feeling comfortable physically and mentally, not to mention how happy he was.He's going home now to celebrate his son's birthday.He didn't believe it anymore, his own son could be snatched away by that fellow Qin Yuan.
Changsun Wuji prepared a generous gift as Changsun Chong's birthday present. Changsun Chong was very happy and thanked Changsun Wuji respectfully.
Changsun Wuji was about to ask Changsun Chong what the first gift Qin Yuan gave him was, when he first heard Changsun Chong speak and told himself that he also had a gift for himself.
The eldest grandson Wuji was very happy, "As expected, my son has grown up and is sensible, and he knows how to honor his parents, so he is very gratified for his father."
Changsun Chong gave a large brocade box to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji opened the brocade box with a smile, and when he saw the contents in the brocade box, his smile gradually disappeared.
Changsun Wuji looked at Changsun Chong seriously: "This is?"
"This saber was given to me by Uncle Qin Shi. My son knows that this saber means a lot to my father." Chang Sun Chong explained.
"Why did you Qin Shishu give you this?" Changsun Wuji asked again.
"Qin Shishu said that he didn't really want this knife at first, and he thought about finding a reason to return it to his father in a few days, but he was afraid of giving it to his father directly, which would ruin his father's face, so he gave it to me. He also repeatedly praised his father for being wise and capable. Taught me to be such a filial son." Chang Sun Chong explained with a smile.
Changsun Wuji fell silent, doubting himself in his heart.For Qin Yuan, is he too fussy?
Not long after, Qin Yuan sent a letter to Changsun Wuji.
Qin Yuan explained to Changsun Wuji in the letter that the reason why he took away Changsun Wuji's knife was because Dai Zhou turned back suddenly, so he explained casually in a panic without thinking too much.The main reason is that I am afraid that things will be exposed, and it will be more troublesome for Dai Zhou to find out.
Of course, Changsun Wuji understood that the 'reveal of the incident' referred to the fact that he lied about being an assassin.It is a big deal for officials to lie, especially in Dali Temple, which is in charge of prisons.Dai Zhou has always enforced the law impartially, and he is still straight-tempered. It is really troublesome for him to know this matter.
It turned out that Qin Yuan had good intentions.
Changsun Wuji suddenly remembered that when he was out of the palace, he scolded Qin Yuan fiercely, but he kept silent and completely forbeared himself.
Originally, the two of them bickered before and were not serious.This time, it was precisely because of self-care that the matter was escalated to such a serious level.Now that he took the initiative to send a letter of apology, and returned the knife long ago, no matter how he thought about it, he ignored it, and he went too far.
After Changsun Wuji reviewed himself several times, he felt more and more sorry for Qin Yuan.
On the second day, when Changsun Wuji came to Dali Temple again, he planned to have a good talk with Qin Yuan, but was told that Qin Yuan brought the apology and others to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to interrogate the prisoners, and then he had to go to several squares in Chang'an City Question the witnesses again.
Changsun Wuji waited for a day, but Qin Yuan did not come back.
On the third day, Changsun Wuji rushed to find Qin Yuan early, because he knew that Qin Yuan had the habit of arriving at Dali Temple early.Sure enough, he bumped into him, Changsun Wuji entered Qin Yuan's room, and saw him frowning sadly.
"Is there something on your mind?" Changsun Wuji asked.
After Qin Yuan saw Changsun Wuji, he didn't show any special emotion, just chatting with Changsun Wuji as before.
"Worried and panicked."
"What are you worried about?" Changsun Wuji felt that he could help Qin Yuan solve his troubles, which could be considered to resolve their previous embarrassment.
"Recently, I found out that many people want to say goodbye to me. Qin Yuan patted the stack of letters on the table.
"This is a good thing, what is there to worry about?" Changsun Wuji asked.
"It's not a good thing for me. Grandson also understands my eccentricities. I said that if I don't see the person I like the most, I won't marry in this life." Qin Yuan said.
"That's not difficult, to be honest, just refuse." Changsun Wuji said.
"The difficulty lies in this family." Qin Yuan picked out the letter from Yuchi's residence and handed it to Zhangsun Wuji. "I heard that he is unusual. If he asks the saint to propose marriage, the saint will most likely agree."
Changsun Wuji glanced down and nodded in agreement: "That's true."
"That's why I'm so worried." When Qin Yuan sighed, he quietly glanced at Changsun Wuji's reaction from the corner of his eye.
After Changsun Wuji pondered for a moment, he said to Qin Yuan: "I will help you find a solution for this matter."
"Thank you, thank you very much." Qin Yuan saluted immediately, fearing that Changsun Wuji would regret it, "In addition to the saints in the court, there is also Changsun Gong. I am afraid that no one will be able to convince Yuchi Gong."
Changsun Wuji glanced back at Qin Yuan, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't tell for a while.
Three days later, Qin Yuan solved the backlog of six unsolved cases in Dali Temple, captured four murderers and wanted two fugitive murderers.
The speed of handling cases is unprecedented.
When everyone in Dali Temple praised Qin Shaoqing one after another, they also got dried dates from Qin Shaoqing.The jujube tasted so delicious, they had never eaten such a delicious and sweet jujube.The skin is so thin that you can barely feel it when you eat it, the meat is thick, soft and elastic, and the jujube core is extremely small.
Dried jujubes are also durable to storage, so each of us took a catty home. The quantity is not small, and we can enjoy it with our family members.
At this moment, after Changsun Wuji read the case reported by Qin Yuan, he took a bite of the dried dates he sent and felt better.
Although he had eaten this dried date long ago, he just couldn't get tired of eating it.Two days ago, Changsun Chong received some for his birthday, but Changsun Wuji ate a whole plate and felt it was not enough.
"You are amazing. You solved so many cases so quickly and within three days."
"Thanks to the great grandson's teaching." Qin Yuan said with a smile.
"Don't say these compliments. I have several positions. I don't really have much control over the affairs of Dali Temple. I just make up my mind on major issues. The main affairs are still in charge of you and Dai and Sun." Changsun Wuji sighed, "When I recommended you, I didn't think you were talented enough to be the young minister of Dali Temple. But you have proved your ability, so that everyone dare not look down on you. Now It's even more so. I'm afraid it won't be long before you will really take the position of Dali Temple Minister, at the same level as me."
"It's still far away. After all, I just became an official not long ago, so I don't have enough qualifications." Qin Yuan really wanted to be promoted quickly, so that he would have less food from the farm.But his previous promotion speed has broken through the impossible, and it is impossible for Li Shimin to give him a second time under pressure. In short, it is not easy to be promoted again in a short period of time, unless he makes great contributions.
"Even if it doesn't work this year, maybe it will work next year." Changsun Wuji is very optimistic about Qin Yuan now, and told Qin Yuan that if he has a chance in the future, he will definitely recommend him in front of Li Shimin.
Qin Yuan: "Then thank you, grandson—"
"The premise is that you don't get mad at me anymore!" Changsun Wuji hastily added.
Qin Yuan touched his nose in embarrassment, trying to deny it, but saw Changsun Wuji cast a stern look over him.Thinking that he was still begging his eldest grandson Wuji, Qin Yuan wisely kept silent.
Changsun Wuji became more angry, and said to Qin Yuan, "I went to talk to Yuchi Jingde."
"How?" Qin Yuan stretched his neck and asked, he was concerned about this issue.
"As you expected, he really likes you very much, and he is thinking of choosing an auspicious day to enter the palace to ask for orders. He is willing to make his own opinions and doesn't ask for opinions, because he knows that you are a temperamental man. The people who are here will definitely disagree, so they just want to ask for an order and wait until the matter is settled."
"This is too difficult, what should I do now?" Qin Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji anxiously, waiting for him to speak.
Changsun Wuji stared at Qin Yuan silently while eating dates, and remained silent for a while.
Qin Yuan insisted on looking eagerly at Changsun Wuji, waiting for him.
"Don't think I don't know your little thoughts, you just plan to let me help you."
Changsun Wuji had almost finished eating the jujube before making a sound.
"I've thought about it, and there are three best ways: First, ask him for a decree before he asks for a marriage, but this kind of decree is too strange to ask. Even if you get it by luck, if you don't have any good reasons Completely reject, escaped this time, there will be another time. Second, you are also afraid of trouble, offending Yuchi Jingde. Simply say that you don’t like the daughter of Captain Chi Jingde’s family, and you will have a bad relationship with him from then on.以后上下朝时刻防备着,以免挨揍。第三,在他请旨之前订亲,他尉迟敬德的女儿总不会嫁给你做小妾。”
"..."
Qin Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji speechlessly.
Changsun Wuji: "Thinking about it, smart people will choose the third method, which can solve the problem without offending Yuchi Jingde completely. I thought about it, if you don't want to do what a husband should do, then Arrange for a dying person to marry you. After you get married, she can also earn a royal order to be buried with honor, and you can wait for a year for your wife's funeral. If he, Yuchi Jingde, still wants to make up your mind, we can do it again Marry one who is going to die, if not, then three, four... After all, it will prolong the time, and then you will have a good reputation as a wife. In the future, not only the Yuchi family, but also families with daughters all over the country will no longer dare to marry you, so Your wish will be fulfilled."
Changsun Wuji laughed as he spoke, feeling that Qin Yuan's doing so was considered hospice care for the dying.After all, not every girl in the boudoir has the opportunity to obtain this imperial status.Anyway, it is not a lie for everyone to clarify the purpose and take what they need.
"What the hell idea. There are too many variables in this third method. Not only do you have to keep looking for someone, but if the married person suddenly recovers from illness, how do you deal with it, or does his natal family cause trouble?" Qin Yuan shook his head contemptuously With a 'chi' sound, he lamented that Changsun Wuji was not sincere enough, "You should directly convince Yuchi Jingde for me, saying that I have various diseases, and it's okay to be abnormal."
"I know Yuchi Jingde's temperament too well, it's definitely not possible. Because you have had unpleasant contacts before, he will definitely feel that you deliberately find fault and refuse, which will only irritate him and want to deal with you even more. Unless you take off your pants, in the He has proved himself incompetent in front of his eyes. Can you?" Changsun Wuji asked.
Qin Yuan: "Of course not!" Whether you are a fairy or a human being, you have dignity!
After much deliberation, Qin Yuan chose the second option.
"I don't believe it anymore, he can really kill me, so what if he offends him!"
"Okay, have the backbone!" Changsun Wuji laughed, and immediately got up to enter the palace, "I will enter the palace now, and explain your feelings to the queen, and let her help you explain it in front of the saint. Since you have such courage, She'll probably fight for you, too."
"Help me to thank Empress Empress." Qin Yuan got up and said.
After Qin Yuan watched his grandson Wuji leave with a smile, he went to discuss the matter with Qin Qiong, and troubled him to help protect himself in the future.
"You said you, it would be better if you just listened to me and chose a family at the beginning, so you wouldn't have trouble today. Why don't you want a woman so much?" Qin Qiong looked at Qin Qiong in wonder, suddenly realized something, and reached out to touch Qin Yuan's neck ,
Qin Yuan was stunned, "What are you doing?"
"In ancient times, Hua Mulan joined the army in place of her father, and now there is Qin Yuan dressed as a woman in court." Qin Qiong told Qin Yuan to take off his clothes quickly after expressing his doubts.
"Why do I have to take off my clothes!" Qin Yuan scolded Qin Qiong for being headless, he had obviously touched his Adam's apple, so why not take it off.
"But your Adam's apple is not obvious, and besides, there are some women with Adam's apple." Qin Qiong insisted on identifying Qin Yuan's gender, "No wonder you like to live alone and don't like people to serve you, so it makes sense—"
Qin Yuan grabbed a handful of dried dates from his sleeve and slapped Qin Qiong on the face, "Fuck you Tongshun! Break up the relationship!"
"You've been poked in my weakness, you've become angry from embarrassment..." Qin Qiong stuffed the two dates he caught by chance into his mouth, chewed with puffed cheeks, and smiled happily, "That's all, I'm just joking with you of."
"What the hell did I encounter all day, they are all unconscionable bastards! Have you forgotten that if you didn't have me back then, you would have lost your life!" Qin Yuan scolded Qin Qiong.
"I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten. But why can't you marry a wife?"
"I won't marry you!"
"Okay, okay, okay, whatever, whatever you want." Qin Qiong gave in, "Don't worry, big brother will definitely send the most powerful master to protect your safety."
Five days later, it will be an auspicious day.
Qin Yuan harvested the bitter vegetables early in the morning, which were astringent and bitter, making people frown.
After Qin Yuan arrived at Dali Temple, he was thinking about how to share his worries for Li Shimin, so a eunuch came to announce Qin Yuan's entry into the palace.
In the Taiji Palace, Yuchi Jingde stood respectfully in the center of the hall.
After Qin Yuan arrived, he greeted Li Shimin and glanced at Yuchi Jingde from the corner of his eye.His face was stubborn, as if he was not convinced in every possible way.
"Ask him yourself." Li Shimin said to Yuchi Jingde.
Because Qin Yuan knew Li Shimin's mood in advance, he paid special attention to it. There was actually a hint of impatience in Li Shimin's tone.He is in a bad mood today, and it is inevitable that he will be even more upset when he encounters such trivial matters.
When Yuchi Jingde heard the words, he turned around, faced Qin Yuan directly, and questioned him: "I heard that Qin Shaoqing is determined not to marry me in Yuchi's house, so he specifically explained the situation to His Majesty."
Qin Yuan bowed slightly, acquiescing in silence.
Seeing Qin Yuan's reaction, Yuchi Jingde became even more imposing.He squinted his eyes and exuded hostility, and immediately asked Qin Yuan in a sharp voice: "Today we are in front of His Majesty in the Hall of Liangyi. You are a man, so you don't have to beat around the bush when you speak. Just say it, why don't you like my Yuchi family? Isn't the daughter of our Yuchi family not good enough for you?"
"Yes, it's not worthy." Qin Yuan replied lightly.
