Song Muqing turned around, stared straight at Qin Ming, and said:
"Sir, can you speak now?"
Qin Ming nodded and asked:
"We people have been living in the Song Mansion for two days. You should have heard what we came here to do, right?"
Song Muqing nodded and said:
"The officials in the imperial court have told you that the Song government is not allowed to inquire about your affairs, so I don't know about it."
Qin Ming nodded slightly and said softly:
"These people I brought are all members of the military medical team of the army. We are here specifically to treat the injuries of the wounded soldiers."
"Now that the war is coming, the military medical team alone is short of manpower, so I plan to recruit some people in Dingxi City."
"I can recommend people from the Song Dynasty to join the military medical team, so that you can make meritorious deeds."
Song Muqing was overjoyed when he heard this, grabbed Qin Ming's arm and said:
"Really?"
Qin Ming glanced down at the arm held by Song Muqing, frowned and said:
"let go."
Song Muqing immediately let go after hearing this.
"You count your manpower. Later, I will order people to take you to the wounded barracks. Once you get there, someone will arrange your affairs."
"When the war ends at this time, Qin will take credit for you and make up for the mistakes he made before."
After hearing this, Song Muqing sent a blessing to Qin Ming and said in a trembling voice:
"Thank you so much, young master. Your kindness will be greatly appreciated by the Song family. I will definitely repay you in the future."
Qin Ming waved his hand and said:
"There is no need to pay back. This matter ends here. What happened last night will be treated as if it never happened."
"And watch your mouth, if someone in the Song family dares to gossip, haha."
Song Muqing looked a little lonely when he heard this, bit his red lips, bowed and said:
"Slave, I will keep it a secret."
The maid Xiaodie also quickly stood up and said timidly:
"My slave will also keep secrets."
Qin Ming nodded slightly, waved his hand, and said:
"You guys go down first."
"promise."
After the two women left, Qin Ming glanced at the messy bed in the back room and sighed.
.......
Shenshi, Chang'an City, on the jade steps of Ganlu Hall.
Li Shimin, wearing a black dragon robe and a crown of heaven on his head, has his hands behind his back, looking at the sky in the northwest.
The chief eunuch was speechless, standing aside with his hands down, glancing at the battle report in Li Shimin's hand from time to time, and muttering to himself.
[Your Majesty, what's going on? We have been standing here for almost half an hour. Could it be that there is some bad news coming from the battlefield in the west? ]
Just when he was speechless and hesitating whether to speak or not to relieve the saint's worries.
A sharp voice suddenly came from the direction of Ganlu Gate.
"The Queen has arrived."
Wuji couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words.
[The person who comforted me finally came. ]
Not long after, Queen Changsun and more than ten maids walked up the jade steps.
"I, please pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"Slave, please see the saint."
Li Shimin came back to his senses, turned to look at Queen Changsun, and asked softly:
"Guanyin Maid, why are you here today?"
Empress Changsun glanced at Wu Shi, smiled at Li Shimin and said:
"I heard that Your Majesty has had a bad appetite recently, so I went to the Food Bureau and personally cooked a bowl of chicken soup for Your Majesty."
When Li Shimin heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
He first put the memorial in his sleeve into his sleeve, then leaned over and pulled up Queen Changsun's Rouyi, placed it in the palm of his hands, patted it gently, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"Oh? Doesn't this mean that I will take it orally today?"
After saying that, Li Shimin laughed, pulled his eldest grandson and walked towards the palace. When passing by Wu Shi, Li Shimin paused for a moment and glared at Wu Shi fiercely.
Wu Tongue's body trembled, and he immediately made a look of lowering his eyebrows.
A quarter of an hour later,
Li Shimin put down the soup bowl, patted his growing belly, and said with a smile:
"It's Guanyin's maid who makes the soup that suits my taste best, haha."
Empress Changsun took the soup bowl, put it on Yuechan's tray, and said:
"You guys go down first."
"promise."
After the maid left, Empress Changsun sat down on the soft couch next to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin naturally stretched out his arms and took Queen Changsun into his arms.
After a while,
Empress Changsun, who leaned in Li Shimin's arms with narrowed eyes, asked:
"Erlang, but there is news coming back from Lanzhou City?"
Li Shimin hummed, then took out the memorial from his sleeve and handed it to Empress Changsun.
Empress Changsun gently pushed the memorial and said in a leisurely tone:
"Erlang, according to the rules established by our ancestors, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."
Li Shimin secretly rolled his eyes, thrust the report into Empress Changsun's hand, and said:
"This is about that boy Qin Ming. It's up to you to read or not."
When Queen Changsun heard this, she muttered in a low voice and said:
"Well, Qin Ming's parents died young, so I am his elder."
"Since this is his business, it doesn't hurt to take a look at it."
After saying that, Empress Changsun suppressed her smile and opened the report.
The report was written by Yu Chigong, and it recorded in detail Qin Ming's words and deeds in the government office.
Empress Changsun was still smiling at first, but when she saw Qin Ming and Gao Xingyi making a bet, she couldn't help but restrain her smile.
After a while, Empress Changsun put the report together and praised:
"When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue."
"This kid from Qin Ming is indeed very talented. If it weren't for this report, I wouldn't have known that Brother Ming is not only good at observing things, but he also has such attainments in the art of war."
"However, logically speaking, this is a good thing! But why is Erlang frowning?"
Li Shimin put away the memorial, sighed and said:
"I, these days, I have been thinking, how did I offend him?"
Queen Changsun frowned and asked:
"Erlang, why do you say this? Brother Ming, hasn't he been doing his best to serve the court?"
Li Shimin smiled bitterly, took out another memorial from his arms, handed it to Empress Changsun, and said:
"This is the news obtained by Baiqisi from the Qin Mansion recently."
"Why."
Empress Changsun looked through the report sent by Baiqisi with doubts.
Just after scanning the beginning, Changsun's eyebrows wrinkled.
"Qin Ming, this kid, married Xiao Changxi? Or was his father the one to officiate? How is this possible?"
"No way, absolutely impossible."
"The marriage between Changle and Yuzhang was decided by Father himself. How could Father agree to do such a thing?"
