Yiguo Duke's Mansion.

Cui Dunli was still chattering, scolding Qin Lang for being ungrateful and unable to support the mud. How many people wished to marry a daughter of five surnames? Qin San was so good that he had to refuse the good thing he delivered to his door.

Qin Qiong sat aside with a solemn expression, with black hair tied meticulously.

A few strands of silver threads appeared from his neatly trimmed beard, and he looked a little haggard and old.

"Should you like, Saburo fell off a horse and was injured, and his mind was confused for a moment. Don't be as good as him."

Qin Qiong apologized for his son, but Cui Dunli became more and more excessive in his words.

"A lowly maid is so stupid!"

Qin Qiong's face gradually became gloomy.

His pupils slowly expanded, and his body gradually exuded a dangerous aura. This was the aura that was as if a famous general on the battlefield fought on hundreds of battles, as if he was as angry as a tiger to survive to the end.

Everyone has reverse scales.

Qin Qiong had already taken off the honest Duke's face and replaced it with the momentum of ten thousand enemies on the battlefield.

Qin Lang also felt this change, and he was a little surprised. He said that there was a difference between legitimate and illegitimate son, but it seemed that Qin Qiong valued him, the illegitimate son very much.

In the stuffy hall, the atmosphere began to be subtle, and Cui Dunli's voice finally became smaller, and he also felt his brother-in-law's anger.

Although Cui Dunli is Qin Qiong's wife and younger generation, he is proud to be the legitimate son of the Boling Cui family of the five surnames and seven sects. He is very proud of himself. In addition, he has long been involved in the Eastern Palace, so his career is still smooth. This year, Ji Qingqing is already a sixth-rank senior official in the Secretariat of the Secretariat. Although the rank is not high, he is less than the fifth-rank senior noble, and he cannot compare with Qin Qiong, a third-rank relative. However, this is also an important position. After the prince ascended the throne in the future, he will naturally rise to the top.

In fact, Cui Dunli, like the Boling Cui family, was not very considerate. At that time, they could not refuse the emperor's personal proposal, but also valued Qin Qiong as a hot-handed upstart in military merit. So they finally agreed to delay the selection of five surnames due to the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Cui married Qin Qiong to Qin Qiong. At that time, because the family gap was large, he took Qin Qiong and lost money. He collected 100 taels of gold alone, 1,000 acres of land and 3,000 pieces of silk, which can be said to be a record of sky-high loss of money that year.

But even so, Cui Dunli looked down on his nouveau riche brother-in-law Qin Qiong in his bones, believing that the Qin family has always been a poor family and cannot be compared with the Boling Cui family, which has been famous for hundreds of years.

In the past, Cui Dunli liked to point fingers and even took advantage of the Qin family. Qin Qiong, the brother-in-law, was honest and generous, and always generous.

But today, he felt different.

Although Qin Qiong had not spoken yet, he had already felt a hint of chill.

Finally, Choi Dunli shut up.

The atmosphere is stagnant.

The champion general of the Tang Dynasty, the Left Guard General, the General of the Jingzhou Daotianjie General, the General of the Yanzhou Dao, and the General of the Marine Commander of the Shangzhu Kingdom, Qin Qiong slowly stood up and looked down at Cui Dunli condescendingly.

He said loudly: "Huailiang is indeed the concubine's son, but he is also the son of me, Qin Qiong. When I abandoned Zheng Guitang, I did not arrange my wife and children, which led to my wife, concubine and children being killed by Wang Shichong. Only Qin Yong and Lao Huang protected Huailiang and escaped. He was only nine years old that year. I have been fighting all year round for many years and neglected to discipline Huailiang. Huailiang is rude to you. This is my responsibility. Please accept my betrothal first, and I apologize to you for Huailiang."

After speaking, he crossed his hands to Cui Dunli.

Cui Dunli stood up embarrassedly and gave in. Qin Qiong, who had changed into a serious face, was not very used to it.

Qin Qiong then said, "Sanlang is always my son, so how to discipline me is Qin Qiong. Whether to marry a daughter of Zheng is also the order of parents. It is really not your turn to take care of this matter."

"You?" Cui Dunli didn't expect that Qin Qiong would turn against him. Since he had been married into the Qin Mansion for several years, Qin Qiong has always respected him and the Cui family. Today, he actually turned against him like this for a concubine's son?

"Qin Qiong, San'er was kicked in the head by a horse. Can't you understand the situation? The Zheng family in Xingyang has five surnames and seven sects. The Zheng family is still the family of the crown princess. Who is not worthy of the illegitimate son born to a mere bastard maid?"

Qin Qiong said coldly, "The Cui family of Boling is also one of the five surnames and seven sects. It has been a prominent family for hundreds of years and the leader of the gentry. The family tradition is strict and the etiquette is the most important. If I marry Sister Ling, then you should respect me as my brother-in-law. But you, the younger generation, directly call me a name. Isn't this a polite person? Isn't it rude?"

Cui Dunli was blushed when Qin Qiong said that. He was Qin Qiong's brother-in-law and was quite different in age. He could not call Qin Qiong's name just now. He should be respectful to his brother-in-law, or at least he should be called the word "Pin". But when he was excited just now, he did not hide his arrogant attitude towards Qin Qiong and called his name directly.

Qin Qiong waved his hand.

"Thank you for coming to pass the imperial edict today. Thank you for your kindness to pass the message on behalf of the prince. The imperial edict has been answered and the words have been received. Qin won't leave Cui Sheren for more, please!"

Qin Qiong drove people straight away.

Cui Dunli was both angry and annoyed, but just now he called Qin Qiong's name inappropriately, but now he couldn't have an attack. He had to shook his sleeves and stood up with hatred, "It's true that you have a son, you have a father. If you don't know the good or bad, say goodbye!"

"Not giving!"

Qin Lang smiled and approached Qin Qiong, "Sir, I offended the person named Cui so much."

Qin Qiong still had the same serious expression on her face.

"He is your uncle, don't be rude."

"If he doesn't treat me as his nephew, how could I treat him as his uncle? Sir, have you ever seen a uncle who treats his nephew like this? He just thought about how to flatter the prince. For him, this marriage was just to use the help of the elder to help him add key points in front of the prince." Qin Lang said bluntly.

Qin Qiong's face turned gloomy.

"Rebellious, kneel down!"

Qin Lang was caught off guard. I wondered if Qin Qiong was just protecting him and was willing to turn against his brother-in-law Cui Sheren. Why did he turn against him again now? It was faster than turning against him.

"Kneel down."

"Marriage from children is always the order of parents. When will it be the turn of the matchmaker to make his own decisions? How can the Zheng family in Xingyang not match you?"

Qin Qiong became more and more popular as he spoke. He slapped several cases with one palm, and slapped one of the best cases to smash the best ones.

He defended his son in front of outsiders, but he was just a man and a man when he closed the door. Qin Qiong would no longer indulge him.

Qin Lang raised his head, stammered his neck, and replied with a glaring eyes, "The reason is very simple, just because the Zheng girl is the niece of the Crown Princess, and the Zheng family in Xingyang is the Crown Princess."

Qin Qiong snorted angrily, "Which one of the famous families is not a marriage everywhere, and it is complicated. So what about the niece of the Crown Princess?"

"Of course not. Marrying a daughter of Zheng means that our relatives, Qin family on the ship of the prince. The grandfather is obviously the largest general of the Qin Palace, but why do he want to get involved with the prince now? Could it be that the prince wants to abandon the Qin King and turn to the prince?" Qin Lang asked directly.

This is something Qin Lang couldn't understand after thinking for a long time. Why did Qin Qiong, the number one general of the Qin Palace, get involved with the prince at this critical moment? He remembers historical records that it seems that Qin Qiong participated in the Xuanwu Gate Incident, but strangely, after Xuanwu Gate, Qin Qiong's reward was not high. The real title was only 700 households, far less than Yuchi Gong's 1,300 households. Even Hou Junji, who was far inferior to Qin Qiong's status in the Qin Palace at this time, was higher than Qin Qiong's reward.

What is even more puzzling is that, in the next ten years, until Qin Qiong died of illness, Qin Qiong did not do anything in the Zhenguan court, and his official position remained unchanged for more than ten years. He was given the title of a general of the twelve guards, and he never led troops to fight again.

Even in the books of the Tang Dynasty, there are many records of descendants of the heroes in the early Tang Dynasty, such as those of Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong, who have records, but the Qin family has no records at all.

Could it be that it is because of the broken incident between Qin Qiong and the prince that Qin Qiong was finally hidden? It has led to the descendants of the Qin family not being valued?

"After returning to the Tang Dynasty, your Majesty ordered me to be under the command of the King of Qin to obey the order. Now I am transferred from the King of Qin's Mansion, which is also an imperial edict. I am a minister of the Tang Dynasty, not a minister of the King of Qin."

Qin Lang couldn't help but be very disappointed. Unexpectedly, Qin Qiong actually said that he was a minister of the Tang Dynasty, not a minister of the King of Qin.

At this time, this attitude and position are unsatisfactory.

"Grandpa, the prince is fighting with the King of Qin. I think Grandpa should firmly support the King of Qin!"

"presumptuous!"

Qin Qiong was furious and raised his slap directly, but he still held it hard until he waved it halfway, "How can you, a child, participate in this kind of fight?"

"Grandma, although this is a fight between gods, our Qin family has been involved in it for a long time, and it is impossible for him to stay out of it. Besides, I have followed the King of Qin for seven years, so why don't I have any feelings?"

Qin Qiong stared at his son, and Qin Lang stared at Qin Qiong, and the two of them were like bulls.

After a long time, Qin Qiong sighed.

"I have been under the command of the King of Qin for seven years, but... The crown prince's throne was already settled, and the King of Qin was only a minister after all. Now, do you want to raise an army with the King of Qin for your father to rebel? Since the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world has been in chaos and is divided, and the people have lived in poverty. After more than ten years of fighting, it was difficult to see that the Tang Dynasty was about to unify the world and return to peace. If the Tang Dynasty civil turmoil broke out again at this time, how long will the world be in chaos?"

"Besides, the most tragic thing about brothers is the most tragic thing in the world. I, Qin Qiong, don't want to see it, let alone participate in it."

Wrong, a big mistake.

Qin Lang was so angry that he was about to stop. You, Qin Qiong, were so fierce in war, how could you think about things but how superficial? It was this time, so why do you still have to be neutral? It's really naive.

"But sir, I never thought that even if you remain neutral, the prince and the King of Qin would not stop because of this?"

Qin Qiong's face looked ugly, obviously this touched the pain in his heart.

"Your Majesty summoned me the day before yesterday and told me personally that he would completely resolve the dispute between the King of Qin and the Eastern Palace. After repelling the Turkic invasion, Your Majesty will change the King of Qin to King of Shu and move the title of Shu to establish a country. From now on, the king and minister will each hold their positions and there will never be any disputes. There is no room for improvement in this matter, do you understand?"

Qin Lang didn't know what to say for a moment. Li Yuan's plan might be correct, and the prince might be able to accept it. The key is whether Qin King Li Shimin is willing to accept it?

"Sanlang, don't participate in the affairs of the court, and it's not your turn to take care of it." Qin Qiong reached out and patted his son on the shoulder, "There is no chance to marry a woman from the five surnames. This time the prince came forward to talk to him about his marriage. It's rare to have an opportunity, don't miss it."

"Not married!" Qin Lang gritted his teeth and replied with two words.

Qin Qiong glared at him in anger and almost couldn't help but beat him up.

"roll!"

Seeing this, Qin Lang knew that he could not say much to Qin Qiong now, so he had to get out in shame.

Qin Qiong stayed alone in the study, sighing and sighing. The emperor had already made a decision on the matter of the King of Qin, and he couldn't control it and didn't want to, but he still had to find a way to deal with his son's affairs.
