"Uncle Wang, why would Old Duke Qin want to talk to me?" On the rocking carriage, Li Su asked with a puzzled expression.

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

"I don't know about this, but Qin Qiong, this old horseman, is not simple, others only know his bravery, but with my observation over the years, he is thoughtful, and extremely trusted by your father, don't look at him who has retired over the years, but your father often visits his mansion, and he will listen to the other party's opinion if there is any major matter, as for the reason why he suddenly wants to see you this time, I can't guess at all!" Li Xiaogong said solemnly.

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

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

"Brother Qin, what is the matter with the old prince asking me to come?" Li Su asked a little anxiously.

"Rokuro, my father's tone has always been the strictest, and I just received my father's order to greet you and the King of Hejian at the door, as for what's going on, I don't know anything about this." Qin Huaiyu spread his hands helplessly, and said helplessly.

With Qin Huaiyu's friendship with himself, he naturally wouldn't lie at this time, and in desperation, Li Su had to give up, and Li Xiaogong followed each other around the main hall and came to a garden in the back house. It's August now, and the flowers in the garden are blooming, and as soon as you enter, you can smell the pleasant fragrance of the flowers, and you can't help but relax your spirit.

After turning a few rockeries, what appeared in front of everyone was a small green lake. There is a small artificial island in the middle of the lake. On the island there is a gazebo, which is connected to the shore by a wooden passage over the lake. Now the lotus flowers in the lake are in full bloom, and the entire lake is covered with lotus leaves, and the pink lotus flowers poke their heads out of the green leaves, swaying gently with the breeze.

Looking at the superb beauty of this pool of green water, Li Su showed a look of envy on his face, and exclaimed: "Qin Laoguo is really a person who can enjoy it, and I will build such a good scenery in the mansion in the future!" ”

Although Li Su praised it in his mouth, he was also strange in his heart. With such a beautiful scenery, if it is paired with a beautiful woman, it is naturally very compatible, but an iron-blooded veteran like Qin Qiong actually sees himself in such a beautiful place, which really makes people feel a little unmatched.

Qin Huaiyu seemed to see Li Su's doubts, and said with a smile: "My father has been injured and troubled by all these years, and his health has always been poor, but fortunately, he invited Dr. Sun for diagnosis and treatment the year before last. It's only getting better. And Doctor Sun explained that it is best to keep my father in a good mood at all times, not to overwork, and it is best to stay in a place with a beautiful environment, which will help to refresh my mind, and this is my father's favorite scenery, so I often stay here. Li Su listened to Qin Huaiyu's words while stepping on the passage with him. Feel the cool breeze on the surface of the lake, and slowly walk towards the gazebo in the center of the lake.

Before the pavilion, Li Su heard a hearty laugh from the pavilion, and then saw a tall old man standing up in the pavilion, and said loudly: "King Hejian, His Royal Highness King Qi, the old man has been waiting for a long time!" ”

Hearing this voice, Li Su couldn't help but speed up his pace. When he arrived in the pavilion, he bowed to the other party and said, "Little nephew Li Su, meet Qin Laoguogong!" ”

Seeing Li Su saluting, Qin Qiong hurriedly helped, and Li Xiaogong and he were equals, so naturally he didn't need to be too polite, and after making a haha with the other party, he pulled Li Su to sit opposite Qin Qiong, and as for Qin Huaiyu, he stood behind his father.

After the three of them sat down, Li Su had the opportunity to take a closer look at this 10,000-strong enemy in history, only to see that Qin Qiong was extremely tall, and from the perspective of future generations, it was estimated that it was at least more than 1.8 meters, and this was because the other party was old and his bones were shrinking. In other words, when the other party was young, he was likely to be a strong man with a height of nearly two meters.

However, although Qin Qiong's figure is tall, she is extremely thin, with thick bone joints exposed under her loose skin, and her face is not very good. It can be seen that because of the pain over the years, Qin Shubao, who was the brave champion of the three armies, has been tortured into a bad old man.

Although his health is not good, Qin Qiong's spirit today is good, and he beckoned Li Su and the two to taste the tea he made with his own hands, and then everyone chatted a few words, because it was the first time they met, Qin Qiong began to refer to Li Su as the King of Qi, but after getting acquainted with it, he simply commensurate with Liulang.

After chatting for a while, Li Xiaogong used the excuse that he wanted to watch the scenery in the lake, so he asked Qin Huaiyu to drive a boat to carry him, and disappeared into the lotus leaf bushes, leaving only Li Su and Qin Qiong in the pavilion. Seeing that the other party's teacup was empty, Li Su respectfully picked up the teapot and poured Qin Qiong a full cup.

Qin Qiong was not polite, squinted his eyes and looked at Li Su, and then drank the tea, and then said, "Liulang, do you know the purpose of what I want to see you?" ”

"The juniors don't know!" Li Su replied respectfully. Although Qin Qiong in front of him was just a thin old man, for some reason, Li Su always felt an indescribable pressure in front of him, and it was this pressure that made him dare not have any presumptuousness, and his speech and demeanor were all beneficial, like a good student in front of the teacher in the future.

"Hehe, it's actually not a big deal, it's just that the old man has something and wants to ask Rokuro to agree!" Looking at Li Su's honest appearance, Qin Qiong suddenly smiled and said, and with his smile, Li Su felt that the atmosphere in the entire pavilion was relaxed, and the heavy pressure just now finally disappeared.

"Uncle Qin is polite, if you have anything to say, what do you use to ask for words for your little nephew? And as long as the little nephew can do it, he will never shirk. As soon as the pressure disappeared, Li Su felt that he could even speak much more fluently, but he still made a solemn expression on his face and said.

"Good!" Seeing Li Su's unthinking consent, Qin Qiong's face immediately burst into joy, and he stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and then said, "Liulang, this matter is nothing to you at all, but for our Qin family, it is extremely important, since you have agreed, then I will not sell it." ”

Hearing Qin Qiong say this, Li Su couldn't help but show a little curiosity, the reason why he didn't want to agree to Qin Qiong was that he admired the other party's bravery and personality, and secondly, he and Qin Huaiyu were close friends, no matter how big the matter, since the other party did not hesitate to use the word 'begging', then he had no reason to excuse himself, no matter how difficult it was, he had to help.

"Liulang, in fact, this simple matter is very simple, that is, after the establishment of the military academy, I will send Huaiyu to study, but after he finishes his studies, you have to leave a seat for him by your side!" Qin Qiong put down the teacup and stared at Li Su's eyes and said.

Qin Qiong's request seemed very simple, but when Li Su looked at the other party's vicissitudes of life with wise eyes, he suddenly had an intuition that Qin Qiong knew himself very well, and even the biggest secret in his heart was already known.

Thinking of this, Li Su's face suddenly changed, he threw aside the kind of false seriousness before, looked at Qin Qiong with a smile, and after a long while, he said: "Uncle Qin is worthy of being the most trusted person of his father, and he didn't even hide this kind of thing from you, presumably in the entire Tang Dynasty, only you can let your father speak freely." ”

Qin Qiong was also a little surprised by Li Su's quick reaction, and at the same time sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being a prince who was praised even by His Majesty, and he really deserved the name of wisdom, he just said a little related thing, and he could guess the truth of the matter.

Thinking of this, Qin Qiong simply stopped going around in circles, and generously admitted: "Liulang is really smart, Your Majesty did tell me about you, I used to think that you were young and vigorous, and I didn't know how difficult it was for me to do, but judging from your performance during this time, the old man had to be impressed, if you continue to develop with this, it seems that it is not impossible to complete the concept you described to Your Majesty at the beginning!" ”

And so it was! Hearing Qin Qiong admit, Li Su scolded Li Shimin in his heart, he really didn't find out before, his emperor father still has a big mouth suspicion, no matter what he has to do with himself, he has to find someone to talk to to feel good, such as Wen Xin's life experience, he told his mother all about it, and about the content of the secret conversation with him when he left Chang'an, but all of them were used as talking points with Qin Qiong in front of him, and now this old man sees his potential and is already trying to lay a foundation for their Qin family.

"Thanks to Uncle Qin's praise, the little nephew is grateful!" Li Yu suddenly stood up, bowed and bowed, and said solemnly, "Brother Huaiyu and the little nephew are brothers and sisters, if there is his help, the little nephew is naturally grateful, but the uncle has to think about it, the road of the little nephew is not easy to walk, do you really bear to let Brother Huaiyu let go of his current idle life and follow the little nephew to take risks?" ”

"Hmph, the husband stands in the world, he should lift the three-foot sword, and make immortal achievements! Their boys, if they stay in Chang'an all day long, they will sooner or later become mediocre, and now that Huaiyu has an heir, then he should let go and break through, even if he dies on the battlefield, at least he will not insult my Hu Guogong's name! "Qin Qiong is worthy of being a horse for half her life, and she is not blindly doting on her children and grandchildren, and she is even mentally prepared for her son to die on the battlefield.

Since the other party's attitude was so resolute, Li Yu couldn't say anything, and made a promise in front of Qin Qiong that as long as Qin Huaiyu succeeds in learning, he will definitely reuse it, and then Qin Qiong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and arranged a banquet in the mansion at noon that day, entertained the two of them well, and agreed to teach in the military academy.

Finally got Qin Qiong's matter, Li Su just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but a few days later, someone was lying on a stretcher, and his whole body was wrapped like a mummy to find him, crying and shouting for him to help!
