Chapter 380 A Life

After three days in Dafeichuan, Qin Mubai inspected the army here and inspected the defense. He was very satisfied.

Dafeichuan is the first line of defense for Helong to face Tubo, and it is also a big barrier to the Great Western Line. No matter when there is any mistake here, this is regarded as the top priority when Qin Mubai or Qin Shubao are in power. Xue Wanjun naturally understands the meaning, so he does his best to do things. The previous emperor commended the generals of Lanzhou. Qin Mubai pushed Xue Wanjun out for the first time, making him get promoted and tasted a lot of benefits. Qin Mubai, who married the princess and only received intangible assets, received ten times more rewards. Since then, Xue Wanjun has been more energetic, and Qin Mubai has been more worry-free.

You can rest assured here in Dafeichuan. Qin Mubai can let go of Lanzhou's internal affairs and slowly turn his strategic focus to Yuyang, Loulan and Gaochang, where his father is in town.

On this day, the Lanzhou Governor's Office sent a fast horse messenger, saying that Su Dingfang sent a letter to report that the father and daughter of the King of Jiangxia were about to arrive in Lanzhou, and a large number of grain and fodder transported by the Yishang Wu family were also about to arrive. Please return the governor to the government to preside over the overall situation. Qin Mubai left Dafeichuan and returned to Lanzhou.

In the past few days in Dafeichuan, there is something more interesting. Hou Junji, who has always pretended to be indifferent to everything, staggered to the barracks forts from time to time. Qin Mubai knew that he really wanted to see the thing of the cannon in red with his own eyes, but he couldn't open that out of reservedness. The soldiers guarding the fort were all "inhumane" garrison, and strangers should not get close, so Hou Junji was panicked.

Qin Mubai pretended not to know, but didn't let him open his eyes and had to wait for him to ask. Hou Junji is also very energetic. If he doesn't look at it, he won't look at it. What a dilapidated thing is hidden!

However, the more you endure and compete like this, the more curious you are when you have seen Hou Junji, who has seen the power of the cannon in red. Only he can understand the taste. Qin Mubai and Xue Wanjun just smiled secretly and didn't break.

When I returned to Lanzhou, I happened to meet Wu Mei Niang and the assassin Xiao Liang to transport food together. The situation is not too bad. There were more than 500,000 stones of grain and grass at the time of departure, and there were still nearly 300,000 stones at this time. Due to the war in the spring, Lanzhou's local agriculture has been greatly damaged, and it can no longer provide huge military expenditure. These 300,000 stones of grain and grass are like sending charcoal in the snow, and the soldiers and people of Lanzhou are happy.

When he saw Wu Mei Niang again, Qin Mubai was distressed for a while. The natural beauty may not have taken a bath for many days. In addition, the journey is far and difficult. She is much darker and thinner, and her body is even more dirty. The past is much darker. If it hadn't been for the amazing and touching shine in her eyes, Qin Mubai would have suspected that she was serious.

At this time, Su Dingfang's fast horse messenger came to deliver the letter again, saying that the father and daughter of Jiangxia can arrive in Lanzhou City tomorrow. Please supervise Guo Xiangying. Qin Mubai ordered his subordinates to arrange these tedious matters and hold a banquet in the governor's mansion to entertain Hou Junji and Xiao Liang and other officials who returned from work. Drinking wine and eating meat, he was even more anxious that he wanted to accompany Wu Mei Niang.

The grain and fodder had been delivered to the military into the warehouse. Wu Mei Niang felt light all over and suddenly felt boundless sleepiness. Originally, she quietly lived in the governor's mansion, waiting for Qin Mubai, who was socializing outside, to come back for dinner and enjoy the sweet time of the two. But I really couldn't stand it. I fell asleep in the bath and was taken into the room by my maidservant. I slept in the dark without eating.

When Qin Mubai came back, there was already a clear breeze, and there was silence in the governor's office.

There are still three or five officials who followed Qin Mubai all the way and whispered.

"Young commander, how to arrange Hou Junji...?"

Qin Mubai thought for a moment and said, "It's neither your own person nor a guest. That's the arrangement."

I was a little confused and asked, "I am ignorant, please ask the young commander to make it clear..."

Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Good wine, good meat, good house, give you peace; beautiful women and sharp sergeants, choose ten of each of them and send them to him. He can give him whatever he wants, let him do whatever he wants, and let him go wherever he wants. He doesn't have to use the rules of the governor's office to restrain him, as long as he doesn't kill and set fire as a traitor. However, none of you are allowed to get close to him or reveal any military and political secrets to him. Do you understand?"

"I understand... that is, it's completely polite, but not close, right?"

"Yes." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "He is lonely, so I will make him lonely enough. When he can't hold back, he will naturally take the initiative to get close to us. Let's do it like this!"

"Yes."

"In addition, there are also the young commanders who came to urge the grain rush to urge the young commander's reply. The soldiers and Shangyi on the front line from Liangzhou to Lanzhou were more than half destroyed by the military disaster. If it will be repaired, people's money and food will be allocated..."

In the yard of the governor's mansion, Qin Mubai was busy for nearly an hour, and finally dealt with the important affairs accumulated recently clearly and took a long breath.

At this time, it is already the middle of the moon.

Thinking that Wu Mei Niang was sleeping in her room at this moment, Qin Mubai's heart was like a deer. To be precise, there was a little beast blood boiling.

When I came to the bedroom, I saw Wu Mei Niang's two close maidservants lying left and right on the chair in front of the room and fell asleep. The sleeping posture is very indecent, and it is obviously exhausting.

Qin Mubai went to wake her up and asked, "Has your owner ever slept?"

"Ah... The general is back? When the host waits for you to eat for a long time, he can't stand to go to bed first. The host told him to wake her up when you come back and eat together before going to bed.

"No need." Qin Mubai said, "She must be tired. Let her sleep!" You also go back to rest. You don't have to stay here."

"Yes..." The two little girl looked at each other and smiled and left.

Touching the door handle, Qin Mubai's heart was not promising.

"Have you never seen a woman's virgin?" He couldn't help laughing and licking his lips evilly. "Yes, I'm still a virgin today."

Carefully pushed the door and entered, and the room was dark. Naturally, his room was familiar. He walked in gently and lit the oil lamp, and heard a slightly heavy breathing from the other side of the bed. As soon as you hear the sound, you will know that the sleeping person must be extremely sleepy.

The orange oil lamp light is reflected on Wu Mei Niang's stunning face, a trace of **, a little warmth.

Wu Meiniang slept face to the side of the door. Half of her arm reached out of the quilt. The other hand stroked her cheek, and her eyebrows were gently locked. Obviously, she slept very deeply.

Qin Mubai walked to the bedside and faintly smelled the faint fragrance unique to her body. The soft and smooth silk satin is thinly covered on Wu Mei Niang's body, with a graceful curves and a halo coated with an oil lamp, which is as dazzling as a work of art.

Sleeping Beauty, if it's fake.

At this moment, it is absolutely a lie to say that Qin Mubai doesn't want to strip naked and rush to bed.

Since he left Chang'an, he has not been close to women for more than a month.

But at this moment, seeing Wu Mei Niang sleeping so deeply, she was extremely tired. If you climb into bed and toss her again, isn't it better than a beast?

The bridal chamber** can't be so hasty.

Sitting by the bed, Qin Mubai saluted Wu Mei Niang's beautiful face, smiled slightly, reached out and stroked a few streaks of hair on her forehead, gently flattened her slightly locked eyebrows, and then gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"Good night, Mei Niang."

A lamp, a cup of tea, a soldier's book, Qin Mubai sat at the table in front of the bed and stayed up all night.

During

, she tweaked the quilt for Wu Mei Niang six times and kissed her forehead six times.

When the first bright sunshine was thrown into the edge of the window, Wu Mei Niang slowly opened her eyes and looked at the man who was sitting straight at the table reading a book. She smiled, charming to the bone, warm and rippled.

"Are you awake?" Qin Mubai put down the book, turned around and smiled, "Are you sleeping well?"

"Aren't you sleepy?" Wu Mei Niang smiled delicately, wrapped the cover tightly and only showed her head outside, and said.

"It's okay." Qin Mubai came forward with a smile, sat down by her bed, and said, "Thousands of miles away, is there any water and soil? I'll ask a doctor to adjust the medicine for you. After a long journey, you need to rest for a few days to recover.

"Well, listen to you..." Wu Mei Niang squeezed her mouth and smiled, staring at Qin Mubai, her eyes full of warmth and satisfaction.

"When did you become so good, unlike you?" Qin Mubai smiled and said, "How's it going? Is my bed comfortable?"

"General, it's a little too hard." Wu Meiniang giggled and said, "Today I went to the market to change this military bed first. It's hard tied, and it's not comfortable at all."

Qin Mubai suddenly smiled, smiling extremely warmly and a little proud and evil, and said, "Oh, are you finally ready to have a bridal chamber with me?"

"Fools!" Wu Mei Niang suddenly flew over her cheeks.

"Then why did you change my bed?"

"..." Wu Mei Niang suddenly pulled the quilt and covered her face. "Go out, I'm going to get up and change my clothes!"

"Ha ha, okay, you must be hungry. I'll ask someone to prepare breakfast to enjoy with you, and then come out together to welcome the king of Jiangxia!"

After saying that, Qin Mubai pushed the door out and called Wu Mei Niang's maidservant to serve her to wash.

Wu Mei Niang showed her head from the quilt and breathed a sigh of light, and her face was like fire.

"Big fool... He twept me all night and secretly kissed me... But I like it! This is the man I want!"

After a young age, the two little maidservant ran in with a smile and looked at Wu Mei Niang with an ambiguous face.

"What are you laughing at?" Wu Meiniang covered up her embarrassment with anger and said harshly, "General, uncle, read all night!"

"Hee hee, the owner doesn't make a move!"

"How is this possible, hee hee! He is a big man with good blood!"

Wu Mei Niang shook her head and smiled, with a self-conscious look of pride on her face. She said leisurely, "Last night, if he really climbed into this quilt, he would not be the man my Wu Mei Niang loved. You won't understand."

The two little maids were at a loss for a while and muttered, "Does the host want to say that the general's aunt is a real gentleman and a husband who is not confused?"

"On the contrary, he is not as great as you said, but also completely bad." Wu Mei Niang smiled faintly, squeezed her lips and smiled playfully. Her eyes longed and whispered, "He just hurts a little, and knows a little respect and pity. Even if his mind is full of desire for good things, he will never forget these.

After a pause, Wu Mei Niang smiled and said, "Such a man deserves to be deeply loved, and it's a lifetime."

Near noon, 30 miles outside Lanzhou City.

Three thousand iron armors are lined up in a military array, and there are many banners, gongs and drums, and the formation is extraordinary.

Qin Mubai wore a robe and flew around. He looked forward with his hand, and smiled lightly at the corners of his mouth: "It's coming."

In front of you, the smoke and dust rolled, and the people of the brigade appeared.

A rider rushed to the young commander, "Young Commander, the King of Jiangxia and Princess Wencheng have arrived!"

"Bear forward to greet."

Qin Mubai waved his hand and led his subordinates to move forward immediately.

The military music Qin Qi's colorful flags are flying, and the welcoming ceremony is not small. Li Daozong rode a horse, Li Xueyan took the car, Su Dingfang was escorted by iron armor, and the group came slowly.

In Lanzhou Military Town, it is rare to put on such a show to greet anyone. This time, it is mainly because the king of Jiangxia came to discuss and give marriage with Tubo by decree, which is related to social style and military affairs, and should not be slack off. In fact, such a posture is mainly for the people and the people of the world to show the importance that the Tang Dynasty attaches to this matter.

On the contrary, the authorities don't value these red tape so much. They just act together.

"Qin Mubai, the governor of Lanzhou, led the generals of the governor's office to welcome His Royal Highness Princess Wencheng and His Royal Highness the King of Jiangxia!" Qin Mubai held his fist on the side of the horse and saluted, "Please forgive the princess and the prince for your humble armor. You can't salute them all."

The ironclad army shouted slogans such as welcoming the prince and princess, which was very powerful.

Li Daozong rode on the horse in a grand dress. He looked up and down at Qin Mubai, and then looked around the sergeants. He said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days. You have become a second-grade official. It's awesome, Mu Bai!"

Qin Mubai laughed and said, "The prince made fun of it!"

Li Daozong patted a little ahead of him and whispered, "I guess Changsun Wuji is going to be angry, right? Haha! He not only didn't clean you, but also let you ascend to heaven!"

"Not necessarily!" Qin Mubai smiled playfully and whispered, "This governor of Lanzhou was awarded to me by Changsun Wuji himself."

"Oh, is there anything else?" A suspicious look suddenly appeared on Li Daozong's face, "How is that possible?"

"Let's discuss this matter later." Qin Mubai smiled slightly and arched his hand and said, "The prince and the princess have come to work hard. Please stay in the first city. Everything has been arranged properly."

"That's good." Li Daozong nodded and said, "Come with me. It just so happens that I still have a lot to say to you.

"You should follow your life."

After receiving the father and daughter of King Jiangxia, the brigade drove to Lanzhou. Naturally, Princess Li Xueyan of Wencheng had been sitting in the car without showing her head. Qin Mubai chatted with Li Daozong, Su Dingfang and others along the way. After entering Lanzhou for a short time, the soldiers and horses were stationed and arranged to travel, everyone dispersed to Rong Jiangxia's father and his daughter for half a day. In the evening, there will be a wind cleaning banquet in the governor's office.

Qin Mubai and Wu Mei Niang were invited by the King of Jiangxia to go to Princess Xingyuan.

Looking at the two people entering hand in hand, Li Daozong smiled and said, "It seems that you are not afraid to envy others."

Li Xueyan took off the grand princess and sat aside. At this time, there was also a stunning look in her eyes, and she secretly said: Is this the long-famous Wu Mei Niang? Sure enough, it's charming and charming!

"The prince will make fun of Qin." Qin Mubai answered with a smile and saluted Wu Mei Niang separately, so he sat down together.

Li Daozong ordered people to treat each other with tea, saying that the arrangement of Xingyuan was very appropriate and satisfactory.

After a few words of gossip, Li Daozong said, "This time, my father and daughter are here. But we have to take a closer look at the matter of the marriage. Your father just won the battle in Puchanghai and pacted Gaochang, which is a change from when he first made this marriage decision. Just because the major events of the court cannot be changed day and night, we came here to show our sincerity. The key is whether the Tubo people have the sincerity of this peace. Otherwise, even if my Li Daozong's daughter is worthless, she can't send it to the plateau!"

Li Xueyan's face turned red and white. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't help it.

Qin Mubai secretly admired that her self-restraint was indeed beyond the reach of ordinary women.

"The first thing the prince said when he arrived in Lanzhou was this matter, and Mr. Qin understood it in his heart." Qin Mubai nodded solemnly and said, "Talking about peace and marriage is not only a major event of the country, but also a private matter of the prince. Qin will deal with it carefully in public and private. Lord, please rest assured that if the Tubo people make peace with sincerity, it will be a hundred-year-old blessing of the two countries. Qin will make the decision and let the princess marry Tubo gloriously without any grievance. On the contrary, if he is not sincere, he will ask him to Tubo Manzi and taste the power of Qin and Lanzhou's 100,000 heroes!"

Li Daozong's eyes narrowed and his eyes were extremely sharp. "How can it be a powerful method?"

Qin Mubai smiled slightly, put down the teacup and hugged Li Daozong and Li Xueyan, and wrote lightly: "Qin stepped on the plateau, captured the Tubo Zanpu Abandoned Zong, and asked in front of the princess - there is a woman like this, what do you want? Did you abandon Zong and praise that you ate too much meat and oil, so that you didn't marry a beautiful princess and would rather be a prisoner?

"Good! I just like your madness!" Li Daozong patted the table and laughed, "If you don't marry a beautiful princess, let him be a prisoner!" - Qin Mubai, I will remember this sentence for you word for you!"

Li Xueyan, who was as quiet as a lotus, sat quietly aside and gently bit her lips. She first glanced at Wu Mei Niang, and then solidified her eyes on Qin Mubai's body. Her eyes were full of a look that no one could understand. She whispered, "I also remember."

Wu Mei Niang glanced at Li Xueyan quickly. Yingkou squeezed the tea and smiled slightly, shaking her head gently.
