Chapter 260 King of Qi Please
Li Daozong sent three groups of people to find Princess Gaoyang. In the end, she had to compromise and reluctantly boarded the car and promised to go back to Jiangxia Wang Xingyuan, on the condition that Qin Mubai "personally" escorted her.
Qin Mubai rode a horse and accompanied her car to protect her.
Princess Gaoyang sat in a big carriage, and her heart was not bored. She opened the window and shouted outside, "Hey!"
"What are you doing?" Qin Mubai smiled.
"I won't follow you!" Princess Gaoyang curled her face and was very unhappy.
"What's wrong? Didn't you say it just now? Is this going to change the story again? Qin Mubai said with a smile.
"I'm not talking about this." Princess Gaoyang said unhappedly, "Well, Mei Niang is going to do business in Xiangzhou and can accompany you day and night. As for me, I have to go back to Chang'an in a few days. This doesn't work, it's not fair!"
Qin Mubai smiled helplessly: "What can I do?"
Princess Gaoyang's eyes turned around and suddenly smiled dewryly, "Why don't we get married in Xiangzhou? Then I can stay in Xiangzhou and not go back to Chang'an! Anyway, the prince's brother and uncle are also there. They can get married!"
"Nonsense!" Qin Mubai scolded her angrily.
Princess Gaoyang cried with a sad face: "This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. What should I do? I'm so far away from you, and you are accompanied by Mei Niang, and you won't miss me anymore. Maybe I will forget it in a few days. And, and..."
"What else?" Qin Mubai asked with a smile.
"And..." Princess Gaoyang's face suddenly turned red and muttered, "You are with each other day and night, lonely men and women... I'm not worried!"
"Haha!" Qin Mubai laughed and said, "Are you afraid that she will get the moon first when she is close to the platform, right?"
"Huh, don't stink!" Princess Gaoyang said bluntly, "She has told me that you can't touch her for a day! Humph, me too!"
"Oh, it turns out that you two have already discussed it." Qin Mubai laughed more and more.
"No laughing, bad guy!" Princess Gaoyang knew that she was speechless. She angrily threw down the curtains and sat in the carriage and sulked.
Qin Mubai thought for a moment and leaned over to the window of the car and said, "Linger, I won't forget you anyway. You can't trust me like this?"
Princess Gaoyang was secretly happy, but her mouth was not soft. She said hatefully, "It's hard to say! Men are all naughty bad guys! Therefore, I want to look at you for a moment.
"What you can see is not yours. Don't you understand this truth?" Qin Mubai said, "The two of us have experienced so many ups and downs to be together. If I don't cherish it, isn't it better than a beast? How can I disappoint you in my life?"
Princess Gaoyang was slightly stunned. Recalling the twists and turns experienced by the two, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart. She lifted the window again, looked at Qin Mubai affectionately with beautiful eyes, and whispered, "Fool, I believe you. I just don't want to leave! ...Chang'an, Xiangzhou, thousands of miles away, it's so difficult to meet. Why don't you think of a way to see when you can be transferred back to Chang'an? By the way, Mei Niang will also be brought to Chang'an at that time. I'm not as selfish as you think."
"I never thought you were selfish." Qin Mubai said, "It's just this matter, let's think about it from a long-term perspective!" Wu Wang and I have only been here for half a year. It's too early to talk about the transfer. Since you are here this time, let's stay for a little more time. Anyway, the king of Jiangxia is also a leisurely prince, and no one urges him to go back too early. You can also stay with him for a little more time!"
"Good!" Princess Gaoyang nodded happily and said with a smile, "After talking for a long time, this sentence is a little beautiful."
Qin Mubai sent Princess Gaoyang to the palace of Jiangxia. As soon as he entered the door, Li You first greeted her and said with a spring breeze on his face, "Mubai, Linger, you are back - Linger, look, who is here?"
Princess Gaoyang looked into the main hall and immediately jumped up happily: "uncle!"
At this time, a middle-aged man in his 30s and 40s came out of the hall and said with a smile from afar, "Gao Yang, uncle really misses you!"
Qin Mubai took a look at him. He was a well-looking man, quite a little high-dressed. The three slender flying beards were elegant, neither tall nor short, and wearing a round-neck blue shirt, he looked quite free and capable.
"This is the brother of Gao Yang and Li You's uncle, Yin Defei's brother Yin Hongzhi, right? I heard its name a long time ago, and I didn't see it until today. Qin Mubai said in his heart.
Princess Gaoyang has rushed over and rushed into Yin Hongzhi's arms, shouting and jumping excitedly: "Exuncle, why have you come to Xiangzhou? Long time no see, I miss you so much! How's your aunt?"
"Okay, okay, everything is fine at home." Yin Hongzhi also looked quite happy and said happily, "It's just that you haven't been to Bingzhou for more than a year. We all miss you very much!" When your brother came to Xiangzhou, I was working in a city under the rule of Dengzhou. Hearing that you had arrived in Xiangzhou, I immediately handed over the official business at hand and came to see you in a hurry.
"Apologize, uncle!" Princess Gaoyang smiled with some embarrassment and said, "I didn't go to see you, but let you come to see me."
"You can't be blamed. As the saying goes, the married daughter is the water that is poured out. How can you think of your uncle when you are here with your husband? Yin Hongzhi smiled jokingly, turned to look at Qin Mubai, nodded repeatedly and said, "Is this the famous Mr. Qin Mubai and Mr. Qin?"
"Oh, uncle, do you recognize him? Have you seen it?" Princess Gaoyang asked curiously.
"I've never seen it." Yin Hongzhi said with a smile, "It's just that there is no one who can accompany Princess Gaoyang and is such a talented young man besides Qin Mubai?"
"Mr. Yin is really good-sighted." Qin Mubai smiled and arched his hand, "The younger generation is Qin Mubai."
"How dare, how dare!" Yin Hongzhi hurriedly bowed his hand and saluted, " Mr. Qin was born as a general with outstanding merit, and the young hero is famous all over the world. It's really comforting to see it today."
"No, Mr. Yin is overreputed." Qin Mubai replied politely.
Princess Gao Yang was not happy to hear it and shouted, "Oh, uncle, Mu Bai! What are you talking about? They are all a family. Do you need to be polite? Brother, have you arranged a place for your uncle? If not, give it to Mu Bai. He is the landlord of Xiangyang. Hey hey, don't be polite to him.
"I don't worry about it. Such small things have been arranged for my brother for a long time." Li You smiled and said, "Mu Bai, uncle came from afar. Have you ever had time to accompany the two of us to a cold house for a drink?"
"Okay, I can't ask for it." Qin Mubai readily agreed.
"I'm going too!" Princess Gaoyang suddenly shouted with joy.
"Linger, it's going to be late, so don't go. Stay in Xingyuan. How about we come back to play with you tomorrow? Li You picked up Princess Gaoyang's face and said, "Don't embarrass Uncle Jiangxia!"
"Hmm... okay!" Princess Gaoyang had to agree.
At this time, Li Daozong also came out of the main hall and said with a smile, "The family talked very well. I don't know if I have disturbed you?"
"Uncle is too polite." Li You said, "Ling'er is back, and I have to bother my uncle to take more control. Let's leave now and don't disturb the uncle's purity.
"Why are you in a hurry to leave? The house is preparing a banquet. If you two stay, the guest room here is also well tidy. Li Daozong said.
"Thank you, uncle, for your beauty. My little nephew has already arranged the accommodation, so I won't bother my uncle. I'll wait to say goodbye!" Li You insisted on leaving, and Li Daozong did not force him to stay. He looked at them thoughtfully. He nodded and said, "Okay. If you have free time, you might as well come to our house to sit down.
"Good." Li You nodded and said to Qin Mubai, "Mubai, let's go together?"
"It's good." Qin Mubai then said goodbye to Li Daozong and accompanied Li You and Yin Hongzhi out of the road together.
Li Daozong looked at the background of the three people leaving, frowned slightly, and fell into meditation. Princess Gaoyang stood aside unhungry and muttered, "Uncle, can't you let me accompany my uncle and brother?"
"Did I just say I wouldn't let you go?" Li Daozong said, "It's obviously your brother. I won't let you go."
"Uh..." Princess Gaoyang was stunned, "Then can I go now?"
"Forget it! He won't let you go, of course there is his reason. Li Daozong patted her on the shoulder kindly, "Let's go and eat with the uncle."
"Well, you must be talking about 'big deal' again!" Princess Gaoyang said anly, "Why is it the same no matter what kind of man? When it comes to business, do you have to leave us alone?"
"Don't guess." Li Daozong said with a complaed expression, "What can the three of them have to talk about? Maybe it's just drinking flower wine for pleasure.
"Bah, ah, ah! Uncle, you don't respect the old man! Mu Bai is not that kind of person!" Princess Gaoyang shouted hurriedly.
Li Daozong smiled and said, "So you mean, your brother and uncle are like that?"
"Well, I won't talk to you, and I'm teasing you again! I'm going to eat!"
Qin Mubai and Li You went out of their way and said to them, "Since you have come to Xiangyang, please let them go to the east. Please go to Xiangyang's elegant wine shop for a few drinks, so that you can have the friendship of the landlord."
Li You smiled and said, "Mu Bai, my uncle is an easy-going person. You don't have to be so polite. The humble house has already been preparing for the banquet, so I won't bother you to spend money. You just need to have a mouthful and a pair of belly, and you can eat and drink with us - please!"
"Yes, Mu Bai." Yin Hongzhi also smiled affectionately and said, "Although Linger hasn't passed the door yet, it will only happen sooner or later. In this way, we are a family. The whole family doesn't talk to two families. You're welcome. You'er has already prepared a banquet. You can come with me.
"That's good." Qin Mubai said with a cheerful smile, "Then you're welcome! You two, please!"
Li You and the two came by car. Qin Mubai rode a horse and went to the west of the city. When Li You arrived in Xiangyang, he neither lived in Xingyuanguan nor settled in Li Ke. Instead, he made a big inn in the west of the city and lived there alone. Qin Mubai once heard some rumors that Li You had to change many different women in the brothel every day. He opened a gambling stall in the inn, played cockfighting, and sang unrestrainedly at night. When he came to Xiangzhou, he didn't see the sky. He was already famous. Everyone in Xiangyang knew that Li You, the king of Qi, who spent money and was lustful, came.
When they arrived at the inn, the three of them dropped their carriages and horses. First, two big men greeted them and bowed Li You with fists.
Qin Mubai is a little familiar with these two people. The last time he saw Li You in the Assassin's Mansion, in addition to bringing a group of women, he followed them.
When Li You saw Qin Mubai looking at the two, he said, "Mu Bai, let me introduce them. These two are my confidants. This one is called Zang Junmo, and the one next to him is called Liang Mengbiao. The two of them are highly loyal in martial arts and can be called dead men. Why don't you two meet General Qin?
"I've met General Qin!" Zang Junmo and Liang Mengbiao hugged him.
"You're welcome." Qin Mubai nodded and smiled, but he was a little unhappy in his heart - because these two people had a "bandit spirit" between their eyebrows. Obviously, they were either treacherous or evil, which could be seen at a glance. I have heard for a long time that in addition to being arrogant, Li You also prefers to make friends with these "bandits". Keep them around you as dead diners and work with them all day long. Except for some hunting and gambling, I haven't done anything serious. For this reason, he has been impeached and criticized by Li Shimin, but he is still the same.
I remember that when he was still a hundred riders at that time, Qin Mubai witnessed once that Li Shimin was furious after reading a memorial. The reason was that someone wrote a book to impeach Li You, saying that when he was the governor of Qizhou, he ignored the state and did not do his business, and he hooked up with these market hooligans all day long to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. Hunting indoxity is a small matter, and there are many things to do to bully men and women. Li Shimin immediately recalled him to Chang'an and scolded him, except that he was demoted to Lingnan. In the end, it was Yin Defei who came forward to plead for mercy, so Li Shimin just opened up and spared Li You. However, Li Shimin still dismissed the official positions of Changshi and others in his house, and a large number of people came to assist him. Since then, Li You has been slightly restrained and transferred all his activities to the "underground", which is a metaphor for continuing to raise these people, such as Zang Junmo and Liang Mengbiao.
In fact, if it hadn't been for Li You, the relationship between Li Shimin and Yin Defei would not have been getting worse and worse. After Yin Defei came forward to ask for Li You for protection, Li Shimin became more and more indifferent to her. Because he always had the ruler of the queen of Changsun in his heart, Yin Defei directly pleaded for mercy and messed up his discipline in order to protect her son. This is quite different from the attitude and practices of Empress Changsun. The emotional crack between the two is also caused by Li You.
Now, Qin Mubai is unhappy to see people like Zan Junmo and Liang Mengbiao appearing beside Li You again. Originally, it was none of his business that Li You, the king of Qi, wanted to be with someone. But he was the brother of Princess Gaoyang, his future brother-in-law... This made him feel a haze in his heart.
The group of people entered the inn and just stepped in. Qin Mubai smelled a strong smell of wine mixed with the smell of powder, which was simply choking. Qin Mubai knows that this inn is a relatively famous and decent family in Xiangyang City, but now it is like a wine pond meat forest. What you can see is full of drunken men and prostitutes, or hooking their shoulders and drinking, or snoring drunk on the ground, and two pairs of men and women in messy clothes simply fell on the contemptuous couch, touching | nipples ** | sound | words, good ** obscene!
Seeing Qin Mubai around him, Li You couldn't hang on his face and shouted, "What's the style? Get out of here!"
Most of the people in the hall woke up and hurriedly packed up the cups and plates to tidy up their clothes and retreated one after another. Many people who were drunk on the ground were also dragged away.
Li You squeezed out a dry smile on his face and said, "Mu Bai, let you laugh. These people are good and greedy. Don't take it to heart. Let's go to the clean place of the back house and listen to Yale and taste the wine. Isn't it unpleasant!"
Qin Mubai was disgusted this time, but he still gave Li You enough face. He just smiled indifferently and said, "Your Highness, King of Qi, please!"
The three of them went to the inner hall, and Yin Hongzhi lost no time and said, "You'er, you have more time to restrain these people. Look, you've only been away for two days, and they won't be decent! If this is going to spread out, will it damage your reputation?
"I know my uncle." Li You gritted his teeth and said, "I'll deal with them later!"
Qin Mubai secretly shook his head and sighed: The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. The uncle and nephews are singing and acting in front of me, which is clearly a hill. It's really sad that Yin Defei has such a brother and son, and Princess Gaoyang has such an uncle and brother!
