Qin Mubai thanked Li Ke and went to the royal palace barracks. He has been a general here and is very familiar with everything in the barracks. The people in the royal palace also remember him deeply, and many people greet him along the way.
The government office of the barracks is quite lively now. At the time of the heaviest heat at noon, Yin Yang, Yuwen Hongtai and other generals hid here to rest, leaving only some miserable pawns to whistle under the sun. At this moment, they are exchanging cups with Changsun Xun and more than a dozen horsemen. It's so unpleasant.
Qin Mubai suddenly appeared at the door of the government office, which stunned everyone.
The most surprising thing was Changsun Fu and those Baiqi soldiers. They looked at Qin Mubai with frightened eyes neatly, and were stunned for a moment - on a hot day at noon, how did Baiqi run out of the palace to "catch" us?
Yin Yang reacted first and hurriedly got up and greeted him with a smile: "Oh, it turned out to be General Qin. What a rare guest! It's very hot. Sit down and drink a cup of good wine from the royal palace to relieve the summer heat - come on, come and sit down and serve you!"
"Thank you, General Yin, for your kindness. There is no need to take a seat." Qin Mubai exchanged eyes with him and immediately understood each other. There is no doubt that it must be Li Ke who told him to let Yin Yang treat Changsun and others, and serve them with good wine and good dishes. It is best to get them drunk and forget the time.
On the other side, Changsun Feng and others cried secretly in their hearts. They had put down their cups and stood up honestly, quietly standing in a row in the corner of the wall, drooping their heads.
Qin Mubai was not angry. After saying a few polite words to Yin Yang, he cut his hands and walked to Changsun and others with his back. He said lightly, "General Changsun, how are you doing the errands that would have been entrusted to you?"
"This..." He came out to work, but he missed the time to gather people here to drink and play. Changsun Fei knew that he was guilty, so his mouth softened, "General Qin, forgive me. The last general and others came to the palace to explain their intention. His Royal Highness the King of Wu said that Princess Gaoyang and several concubines went out early in the morning and had not returned yet. The king of Wu has sent the officials out to urge me to wait here.
Waiting? So what did you wait for? This table full of good wine and good dishes is finally waiting, right? Qin Mubai snorted softly, "Baiqi is ordered by the emperor. You can perfunctorily blame what the emperor has entrusted. You are really bold!"
"General Qin was angry. The last general was wrong." At present, Changsun Xun has to make amends honestly. This little tail has been firmly grasped by Qin Mubai. If you don't accept it, I'm afraid there will be more suffering behind.
"I don't have time to care about you now. When I go back, I have my own military order to serve you." Qin Mubai scolded and said, "Her Royal Highness Princess Gaoyang has sent someone to send a letter back to the royal palace, saying that she went to the royal palace of Wei to play. Are you still drinking here? I waited for your reply in the palace until noon, but I didn't see anyone. If I hadn't come here in person, are you going to get drunk and go back to the palace tomorrow?
"The general calmed his anger, and the last general immediately took someone to the Wei Palace to invite Princess Gaoyang!" Changsun Xun finally found a step to get out of himself and hurriedly held the boxing.
"Go quickly!" Qin Mubai shouted in a low voice, and Changsun and others trembled neatly. They hurriedly answered Nuo and ran out.
"Wait!" Suddenly, Qin Mubai stopped them again and pointed to them and scolded angrily, "Look at your bear. Your armor is scattered and messy, and the wine is frivolous. There is no royal power at all. Do you run out like this to humiliate Baiqi?! - Stripped all my clothes and go to the well to fray water and use cold water. Drench the wine, pack up, and then go to the Wei Palace to do the office!"
"Yes!" Changsun and others had bitter words like eating Huanglian, and they all squatted with their heads down.
A moment later, Yuwen Hongtai's simple laughter sounded: "General Qin, you were really majestic just now! It's worthy of being a royal knight, haha!"
Yin Yang and more than a dozen generals present laughed and said, "Yes, yes, a prince like Changsunxun, just owes to clean up. When he just drank with us, he regarded himself as a superior general. He didn't pay attention to us and didn't drink wine to him. It's really happy to see General Qin deal with him!"
Qin Mubai smiled and said, "It's just to deal with some housework, which makes all the brothers laugh - come on, it's very hot, just drink wine to relieve the heat! I haven't been together with my brothers for a long time!"
"Good! OK!" Yin Yang and Yuwen Hongtai took the lead in shouting - "Wing wine, bring the best wine treasured in the army!" This wine can only be opened when General Qin comes. Changsun's kind of goods, it's polite enough for him to drink the wine bought from the Huren restaurant in the West!"
"Haha, thank you brothers!" Qin Mubai laughed and sat down with Yin Yang and others, and the big bowl of drinking and eating meat was Le Tao.
After three rounds of wine, Qin Mubai said to Yin Yang, "Brother Yin Yang, have you been to the first wine in the world recently?"
"I've been there. What's wrong?"
"Is Wu Mei Niang back?"
"Oh, the general is asking his sister-in-law!" Yin Yang smiled and said, "It seems that he hasn't come back yet. The first wine in the world is still Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang. Originally, Zheng Anshun cooked with him before, but it seems that the Wu brothers don't get along well with him. Now Zheng Anshun doesn't care about the first wine in the world. It seems that the store has all belonged to the Wu brothers, and there is nothing wrong with the Zheng family.
Qin Mubai frowned slightly and scolded in his heart: No guess, it must be the two villains of the Wu brothers, who are eager to occupy the world's first wine and are crowding out Zheng Anshun. How can a big merchant like the Zheng family care about a wine shop? Zheng Anshun naturally was not in the mood to fight with them, so he took a step back to complete them. Don't these two idiots know that the first wine in the world can only be opened with the support of the Zheng family? It's really stupid to cross the river and tear down the bridge now! Next, are they going to exclude Wu Mei Niang? It's really three days without fighting. I'm going to the house to lift the tiles.
"Brother Yin Yang, please do me a favor." Qin Mubai said.
"If there is anything, General Qin can tell him. Why do you need to help? None of our brothers has been taken care of by you, right? Yin Yang said with a smile.
Yuwen Hongtai and others immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, if the general has something to say, we will help you do it properly."
Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Thank you, brothers. In fact, it's just a small matter. The first wine in the world. Originally, I supported Wu Mei Niang and the Zheng family to open it, but now there are people who cross the river and tear down the bridge, want to occupy and swallow it alone. I'm afraid those people have forgotten who is the real backstage and owner of the world's first wine.
"You want to deal with the Wu brothers, right? This is so easy! What do you want to pack up like, General Qin, please tell me!" Yin Yang said.
Qin Mubai smiled and said, "From the perspective of business, I, Wu Mei Niang and the Zheng family are the real owners of the world. The host wants to teach his servants a lesson, and that's whatever it takes. However, at least they are my two brother-in-law. They can't go too far, and they can't ruin the business of the world's first wine. Do you know what to do?"
Yin Yang blinked his eyes and thought hard. After a long time, he smiled strangely: "I know. General Qin can rest assured that I will handle this matter properly. I will definitely clean up the Wu brothers obediently and kneel in front of General Qin to plead for his mistake.
"You don't have to kneel in front of me." Qin Mubai said, "Let them go back to Zheng Anshun and do what they should do honestly, just don't think about it."
"Oc, no problem!"
......
Qin Mubai didn't stay long. After a while, he left Wu Wangfu with Yin Yang and others. He will definitely not go to the Wei Palace. Whether Princess Gaoyang is still there or not, it must be a good thing to go there. Either touch the moldy head of Princess Gaoyang, or make the king of Wei unhappy. Let's leave this kind of scapegoat matter to Changsun!
Riding on the fire cloud horse, Qin Mubai arrived at the palace in a moment. Li Zhi and Li Mingda didn't wake up from the nap. Qin Mubai, who was half drunk and full, rested for a while in the imperial garden, ready to take the two little guys to study at Yu Shinan in the afternoon.
As for the matter of Princess Gaoyang, I don't have to worry about it. Whether Changsun Xun finds someone or not, it's all his business. Escape from the palace and stay up all night. Princess Gaoyang is likely to be scolded by the emperor, but it's not a big deal. But if... Li Tai, the king of Wei, really betrays Princess Gaoyang, it's hard to say. This may make a big deal. It's better to stay away from yourself and don't get involved.
I read in the afternoon and practiced calligraphy. Yu Shinan's calligraphy is famous all over the world. He is known as "the first stroke of the dynasty" and has won the essence of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. He taught Li Zhi and Li Mingda to write regular script today, and the two little guys practiced very seriously. Qin Mubai had nothing to do and went to the Baiqi barracks. After waiting for a while, Changsun and others came back.
The weather was very hot. These people wore armored military robes to go out for a job. They were so hot that they were almost out of breath. In addition, they were caught by Qin Mubai for drinking and being lazy in the Wu Palace. Therefore, they all had a dead look on their faces and were extremely depressed.
Qin Mubai was sitting in the office waiting for them. Changsun Feng didn't dare to neglect and hurried forward to report. He said that he didn't see Princess Gaoyang in the palace of the King of Wei, and the King of Wei was not in the mansion. According to the officials, the king of Wei and Princess Gao Yang seemed to have returned to the palace together.
Qin Mubai's heart tightened: Did Li Tai really betray Princess Gaoyang and turned it back and handed it over to the emperor?
"Let's go, General Changsun. We should go to the emperor's place." After saying that, Qin Mubai got up.
"What's the matter of going to the emperor?" The eldest grandson asked sullenly. I've been running around for a long time, tired and hot, and I'm almost half dead. What kind of mold are you going to the emperor?
"The emperor ordered us to guard Princess Gaoyang. Now she is lost, but she was sent back by the king of Wei. Do you think we are suspected of dereliction of duty? Qin Mubai glanced at Changsun Luan coldly, "What should I say? It's time to take the initiative to go to the emperor to plead guilty. Are you waiting for your majesty to be angry and punish us?"
"Then... let's go." Changsun responded helplessly and sighed in his heart: There was nothing I can do. Who let him hold my handle, so I had to be led away by him...
