    "Uncle Wang, why would the old Duke of Qin want to talk to me?" Li Min asked with a puzzled look on the swaying carriage.

    Qin Qiong agreed to teach in the military academy, but made a request, that is, he asked Li Min to go to his house, saying that he had something to discuss with him, so today he and Li Xiaogong went to visit Qin Qiong.

    "I don't know about this, but Qin Qiong, an old man, is not a simple man. Others only know his bravery, but based on my observations over the years, he is a thoughtful person and is extremely trusted by your father. Regardless of how many years he has  He has retired, but your father often visits his house, and he will listen to his opinion on any important matters. As for the reason why he suddenly wants to see you this time, I can't guess at all!" Li Xiaogong was a little bit confused.  Said solemnly.

    Hearing Li Xiaogong's evaluation of Qin Qiong, Li Min was surprised for a long time, because he learned from the other party that Qin Qiong was not only a brave general, no wonder he spent so much effort to invite the other party to come out?

    When we arrived at Hu Guogong's mansion, we saw Qin Huaiyu standing at the door to greet him from a distance.  Li Min helped Li Xiaogong get out of the car, Qin Huaiyu came up to salute, and then walked inside with Li Min talking and laughing.

    "Brother Qin, why did the old prince ask me to come here?" Li Min asked anxiously.

    "Liu Lang, my father has always been the strictest. I have just received an order from my father to greet you and King Hejian at the door. As for what happened, I don't know at all." Qin Huaiyu said helplessly.  He spread his hands and said helplessly.

    Based on the friendship between Qin Huaiyu and himself.  Naturally, he would not tell lies at this time, so Li Min had no choice but to give up.  He and Li Xiaogong followed each other around the main hall and came to a garden in the back house.  It's August now.  All kinds of flowers in the garden are in full bloom. As soon as you enter, you can smell the pleasant fragrance of the flowers, which can't help but relax your spirit.

    After turning around several rockeries, a small green lake appeared in front of everyone. There was a small artificial island in the middle of the lake, and a pavilion was built on the island.  It is connected to the shore by a wooden channel on the lake.  The lotus flowers in the lake are now in full bloom, and the entire lake is covered with patches of lotus leaves. The pink lotus flowers poke their heads out from the green leaves, swaying gently in the breeze.

    ?Looking at the stunning scenery of this pool of green water.  There was a look of envy on Li Min's face, and he praised: "Old Duke Qin is really a person who knows how to enjoy things. I will also build such a beautiful scene in my mansion in the future!"

    Although Li Min praised him, he was also surprised in his heart. If such a beautiful scenery is paired with a beautiful woman, it would be a perfect match. However, for a veteran like Qin Qiong to see him in such a beautiful place, it is really strange.  It feels a bit unmatched.

    Qin Huaiyu seemed to see Li Min's doubts, and smiled and said: "My father has been troubled by injuries and pains in recent years. His health has always been poor. Fortunately, he asked Dr. Sun for treatment the year before last, and he got better. Moreover, Dr. Sun told him to keep my father healthy at all times."  If you're in a good mood, don't overwork yourself. It's best to stay in a place with a beautiful environment. This will help you feel refreshed. This is my father's favorite scenery. So I often stay here." Li Min listened to Qin Huaiyu's words and said:  Step onto the passage with him, feel the cool breeze on the lake, and slowly walk towards the pavilion in the center of the lake.

    Before reaching the pavilion, Li Min heard a burst of hearty laughter from the pavilion. Then he saw a tall old man standing in the pavilion and said loudly: "Your Highness King Hejian and King Qi, I am waiting for you."  It¡¯s been a long time!¡±

    Hearing this voice, Li Min couldn't help but quicken his pace. When he arrived at the pavilion, he bowed to the other party and saluted: "My nephew Li Min, pay my respects to the old Duke of Qin!"

    Seeing Li Min salute, Qin Qiong hurriedly helped him. Since Li Xiaogong and Li Xiaogong were equals, there was no need to be too polite. After having a laugh with him, he pulled Li Min to sit opposite Qin Qiong. As for Qin Huaiyu, he  Behind his father stood his hands down.

    After the three of them sat down, Li Min had the opportunity to carefully look at this historical enemy of ten thousand people. He saw that Qin Qiong was extremely tall. From the perspective of future generations, he was probably at least 1.8 meters tall, and this  Or because the other party is old and his bones have shrunk.  In other words, when the other party was young, he was probably a strong man nearly two meters tall.

    "However, although Qin Qiong is tall, she is extremely thin, with thick joints exposed under her loose skin, and her face is not very good.  It can be seen that due to injuries over the years, Qin Shubao, who was a brave champion in the three armies, has been tortured into a bad old man.

    Although he was not in good health, Qin Qiong was in good spirits today. He invited Li Min and the two of them to taste the tea he made, and then they all chatted for a while. Since it was their first meeting, Qin Qiong began to treat Li Min as the King of Qi, but  After getting familiar with each other, I simply became acquainted with Rokuro.

    After chatting for a while, Li Xiaogong asked Qin Huaiyu to take him in a boat on the pretext that he wanted to see the scenery in the lake.He disappeared into the lotus leaves, leaving only Li Min and Qin Qiong in the pavilion.  Seeing that the other party's teacup was empty, Li Min respectfully picked up the teapot and poured a full cup for Qin Qiong.

    Qin Qiong was not polite at all. She squinted her eyes and looked at Li Min, then drank the tea in one gulp, and then said, "Liu Lang, do you know why I want to see you?"

    "I don't know, junior!" Li Min replied respectfully.  Although Qin Qiong in front of him is just a thin old man, but for some reason, Li Min always feels an indescribable pressure in front of him. It is this pressure that makes him dare not be presumptuous, and his speech and behavior are all  Well-behaved, like a good student in the future in front of the teacher.

    "Haha, it's not really a big deal. I just have something I want to ask Liu Lang to agree to!" Looking at Li Min's honest look, Qin Qiong suddenly smiled and said, and with his smile, Li Min felt the atmosphere in the entire pavilion.  As soon as he relaxed, the heavy pressure just now finally disappeared.

    "Uncle Qin, you're so polite. Just give me an order if you have anything to do. How can I ask my nephew for anything? And as long as my nephew can do it, he will never refuse." As soon as the pressure disappeared, Li Min felt like he couldn't even speak.  He became much more fluent, but still said with a solemn expression on his face.

    "Okay!" Seeing Li Min agree without thinking, Qin Qiong's face immediately glowed with joy, she stretched out her hand and patted his shoulder, and then said, "Liu Lang, this matter is not important to you at all.  It¡¯s nothing, but it is extremely important to our Qin family. Since you have agreed, I won¡¯t hold back.¡±

    Hearing what Qin Qiong said, Li Min couldn't help but show some curiosity. The reason why he agreed to Qin Qiong without thinking was that he admired Qin Qiong's bravery and conduct, and secondly, he and Qin Huaiyu were close friends. No matter how big the matter,  Since the other party doesn't hesitate to use the word 'begging', then I have no reason to refuse, and I have to help no matter how difficult it is.

    "Liu Lang, actually this simple matter is very simple, that is, after the military academy is established, I will send Huaiyu to study, but after he completes his studies, you have to leave a place for him next to you!" Qin Qiong put down the tea cup and stared at  He looked into Li Min's eyes and said.

    Qin Qiong's request seemed very simple, but when Li Min looked at the other party's eyes with wisdom and vicissitudes of life, he suddenly had an intuition that Qin Qiong knew him very well, even the biggest thing in his heart.  The secrets are all already known clearly.

    Thinking of this, Li Min's expression suddenly changed. He threw aside all the pretentiousness he had before and looked at Qin Qiong with a half-smile. After a while, he finally said: "Uncle Qin is worthy of being the father's most trusted person."  I have not even hidden this kind of thing from you. I think you are the only one in the entire Tang Dynasty who can let my father speak freely."

    Qin Qiong was also a little surprised by Li Min's quick reaction. At the same time, he sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being a prince that even His Majesty praised highly. He was indeed worthy of his reputation as an intelligent prince. He could guess what was going on just by telling some related things.  the truth.

    Thinking of this, Qin Qiong simply stopped beating around the bush and admitted generously: "Liu Lang is indeed smart. His Majesty did tell me about you. I used to think that you were young and energetic and had no idea what you were going to do."  It is such a difficult thing, but judging from your performance during this period, I have to be convinced. If this continues, it seems that it is not impossible to complete the idea you originally described for His Majesty!"

    Indeed it is!  Hearing Qin Qiong's admission, Li Min cursed Li Shimin in his heart. He had never noticed before that his father, the emperor, was suspected of being a loudmouth. No matter what happened to him, he had to find someone to talk to before he could feel better.  For example, at the beginning, he told his mother and concubine everything about Wen Xin's life experience, but the contents of the secret conversations he had with him when he left Chang'an were all discussed with Qin Qiong in front of him. Now that the old man sees his potential, he has  Thinking of ways to lay the foundation for their Qin family.

    "Thank you for the compliment from Uncle Qin, my nephew is very grateful!" Li Min suddenly stood up, bowed and gave a salute, and said solemnly, "Brother Huaiyu and my nephew are brothers, so if he helps me, my nephew will naturally be grateful.  No, but uncle must think carefully, the path taken by my nephew is not easy. Do you really have the heart to let Brother Huaiyu give up his current leisure life and follow my nephew to take risks? "

    "Hmph, when a man stands in the world, he should carry a three-foot sword and make immortal achievements! If those boys stay in Chang'an all day long and mess around, they will become mediocre people sooner or later. Now Huaiyu has an heir.  Then you should go out and have a go. Even if you die in battle, at least you will not dishonor the name of Duke Hu!" Qin Qiong is worthy of being a soldier for half his life, and he does not blindly dote on his children and grandchildren. He is even mentally prepared for his son to die in battle.  .

    Since the other party¡¯s attitude was so resolute, Li Min could not say anything more and made a promise in front of Qin Qiong that as long as Qin Huaiyu achieved success in his studies,Qin Qiong finally breathed a sigh of relief. He arranged a banquet in the mansion at noon that day, entertained the two of them well, and fully agreed to teach in the military academy.

    After finally settling Qin Qiong¡¯s matter, Li Ming just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but within a few days, someone found him lying on a stretcher, wrapped like a mummy, crying and asking for his help!
