As usual, the whole family gathered for dinner.

"It's seafood again."

Yu Xiao said happily when he looked at the steamed Dongxing Ban, while Yu Xuanji prefers the white-burning prawns to find it fresh and delicious, while hibiscus vermicelli scallops are Yang's favorite.

Several Hu concubines also like seafood, abalone, sea cucumber, cuttlefish, and a pot of Buddha jumping over the wall, which is both delicious and nourishing.

Qin Lang was wearing a light and comfortable long gown. Seeing the whole family gathered together, he felt very satisfied and a rare warm scene. He had been running around over the years, but he had not been in the capital for many years and had more children, but he had no time to accompany them.

A few little guys are very polite in their eating habits, but they all like seafood very much.

"Sanlang has been in Lingnan for several years, but the cooking level of this seafood is better than that of the Chang'an seafood restaurant."

"Grandma is so awesome."

Qin Lang now has six sons and five daughters. Except for the Liu Fan You, the Liu of the Queen of Linyi, the other ten children have been brought to Lingnan now. He also has nine adopted sons. The eldest son Cunxiao had already graduated from the Yulin Palace and entered the Xuanwumen Tun Camp as a Thousand Cavalry Officer. This time he also took the initiative to ask to go south with Qin Lang.

The second son Cunyi studied in the Imperial College and asked to go south. The other adopted sons also came south together. In addition, Cunen, who studied in Huangpu Academy in Guangzhou, all the adopted sons came.

Anon's son Cunzhong and Acha's son Cunxian also came. The two of them also recognized Qin Lang as their father, but because of their mother, these two adopted sons were different from the other nine adopted sons.

Although there are different legitimate children in the big family, and even more so when they are married off, Qin Lang is still very good to all his children in Lingnan. Even if he adopts son, he is considered to have already left. During dinner, the family gathers to have dinner together, and it is not different from legitimate children, but the relatives are married off.

The boss Cunxiao is now in his early twenties and is in his youth. He has some of the bloodline of his unknown Turkic father, which makes him tall and burly, and does look a bit wild. He is so good at riding and shooting, but he can grab a spear with his bare hands on his horse or pass through a hundred steps. When he was in the Yulin Palace, he was even a star player of the Emperor Salu Purple Polo team.

The golden mace passed down by Qin Lang is even more invincible in close combat.

When he was in the Yulin Palace, he was awarded the title of Ten Thousand People and Enemies by Li Shimin. In Chang'an, the emperor personally followed him and had a good future, but he insisted on coming to Lingnan. Now he is the commander of the yamen commander and commander of the Yamen Guard.

"Is Cunxiao still used to coming to Guangzhou? Did Yabing make up for it?" Qin Lang asked Cunxiao, who sat at the dining table without saying a word. He came here for dinner every day, but he rarely spoke, answered questions and did not ask or talk, and kept a long distance from his adopted father's concubines.

"Recalling the adoptive father, Guangzhou is very good, with a beautiful and sunny atmosphere. The Yanei army is still in the process of training, and the progress is good."

The military army of the Strategic Institution was a mobile army prepared by Qin Lang to build. It can handle emergency responses and be as sharp as a sharp sword.

He drew elite troops from each town and formed a 3,000-man sected military commander Yanei Army, including 1,22 cavalry and 1,88 infantry. Among the cavalry were 200 armored cavalry, 500 light cavalry, and 500 archers. Among the 1,800 infantry, three hundred shaman soldiers, five hundred armored long archers, five hundred studsmen, and another five hundred crossbowmen. These 1,800 infantry were also riding horses and maneuvering, and they could be considered dragon cavalry.

This Yanei army, which was drawn from the Lingnan army, was handed over to Cunxiao to command. He could have imagined that there would definitely be some people who were dissatisfied. After all, Qin Cunxiao was still so young, and most people would think that he was just the adopted son of Duke Wei and became the Yanei.

They did not know Cunxiao's hard work over the years, and did not know his efforts, so they took it for granted. Qin Lang did not explain anything to Cunxiao. He believed that this should not be a big obstacle to Cunxiao, and it was also a test for him.

This is the first time that Cunxiao left the Chang'an Emperor's Imperial Army and came to serve as the military chief. This is still a newly built army, otherwise there would be more problems.

If Cunxiao could not even withstand such a small test, it means that he was not mature enough.

So he threw Cunxiao at the Yanei Army and stopped asking about it, allowing him to face the three thousand elites himself.

Cunxiao's seemingly calm words made Qin Lang understand that the process might not go smoothly, but since the young man did not complain to Qin Lang for help, it means that he could still control the situation.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. We need to speed up the progress. The treatment of the Yanei army is very good. They are also elite soldiers drawn from each army. So I hope they can be a sharp sword, not a group of pampered master soldiers. Come to Guangzhou not to enjoy happiness, but to act as the tip of a knife."

"If you have any material and equipment difficulties and needs, just tell me directly and I will solve it for you. As for the rest, it depends on you."

"My son has no difficulties for the time being, everything is pretty good."

"Do those soldiers obey you?"

"At first, some people were dissatisfied, but my son set up a ring in the school field and personally became the champion and accepted the challenge for three days. The swords, spears, and the swords, guns, and fired them! "

"You won all?"

"lucky!"

Qin Lang nodded, "This is not a solution, but it can only prove that you are brave. But as the commander of the yamen, the commander of the army, it is not enough to fight alone."

"So my son asked those who were still dissatisfied and chose their own troops. I divided the three thousand yamen army into two teams. I and they each unified the army and carried out practical exercises. After seven days and seven nights, my son defeated them seven times. So since then, the voice of dissatisfied has become less and the thorns have been convinced a lot."

Qin Lang laughed. The process that could be imagined was not easy. However, Qin Cunxiao was able to defend the game for three days, never defeated, and practiced for seven days in actual combat, and won seven battles. This was beyond his expectations. It seemed that this kid was not in vain in the Yulin Palace and the Imperial Guards in Tunying. It was indeed a bit real.

"sharp!"

Cunxiao said, "A hero and three helpers, and his son doesn't have that ability. It is also the help of all the brothers, and the result of the efforts of the classmates brought from the Yulin Army before."

When Cun Xiao applied for the Southern Transfer, he also encouraged some Yulingong classmates in the camp to go to Lingnan to have a better chance of making achievements and being more capable than Chang'an. So he really encouraged a group of classmates to apply for the Southern Transfer with him.

There were more than a dozen students in this group, including Cunyi and other Yi brothers, Pei Xingjian, Luo Tong and others, but they were nominally their uncle's partners. After they arrived in Guangzhou, they all joined the Yanei Army together. It was precisely because of this small group that Cunxiao was able to gain a foothold in the Yanei Army so quickly and then gained power.

His practical exercises and fighting skills were also from Pei Xingjian. Everyone worked together and won many battles. The elite soldiers and schools from the 12th Army Town of Lingnan were convinced.

After all, those people were drawn from each town and they temporarily put together a team. But how could they be more filial to those who are good at tacit understanding?

Moreover, when they were in the Yulin Palace, practical exercises were common, and they were guided by famous generals such as Emperors, Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Qin Lang, Chai Shao, Li Daozong, Xue Wanche, Liu Hongji and other famous generals as teachers and instructors.

The ability to talk about soldiers on paper, arrange troops, and deduce sand tables is absolutely extremely strong.

"I feel relieved to see your success, but don't be proud. Although those people are not your opponent in the drill, these people are all brave men who climbed out of the dead. Although you have learned a lot of military books and strategies, you can deduce sand tables and map homework, but in terms of real battles, you may still be far from it. You should learn more from them. It is a good thing that your classmates and brothers can join together, but don't just care about your own small groups, and you should actively integrate into everyone. After the Yanei army was established, they were all brothers of comrades, not those of the Chang'an faction, Lingnan Gang, etc., understand?"

"Thank you for your teachings."

Acha smiled and said, "If Sanlang doesn't let Cunxian join the Yanei Army to train, Cunxian's ability to ride and shoot is good."

Qin Cunxian sat there without any worries. He was always a little unnatural in the dinner party of this big family. Apart from his mother, he was closer to Cunen, who was from the same barbarian family.

Qin Lang glanced at the Cuan boy.

"I heard that Cunxian likes Huangpu Academy very much and likes reading. He even wrote a few short poems recently, which are very good. Since the child likes literature, let him concentrate on studying literature, why bother?"

Qin Cunxian looked grateful to Qin Lang. The young man left his hometown with his mother and came to Guangzhou. He recognized a stranger as his father and was in a completely unfamiliar environment. It was indeed not easy for him as a young man.

He has even begun to disgust his mother Ah Cailai. He would rather stay in Huangpu Academy every day. Only by writing books can he temporarily relieve his loneliness.

Compared to Qin Lang's biological children, they are young and innocent and romantic, these adopted sons are now sensible and mature. They also know that they are not the real sons of the Duke of Wei's Mansion, so they are working hard and struggling very hard.

They all have a sense of crisis and urgency. Qin Lang is very good to them and has created good conditions for them. However, they also know that they are not the real Qin family after all. They are not qualified to work harder. They must work harder to be worthy of the goodness of the Duke of Wei to them. They must have a future in the future so that they can repay Duke of Wei and guard Duke of Wei’s Mansion.

The adopted sons have grown up one by one, especially the long-term failure to live together in recent years, which has even made them a little unfamiliar.

Qin Lang now takes them to Lingnan. No matter how busy they are, they are asking them to come back to live the next night, have dinner together, at least have a few chats about homework, or ask about work, etc.

He tried to strengthen some relationships with these adopted sons who had grown up and give them a little more home-like feeling.

He did not want his adopted sons to end up being like those wealthy families, and his adopted sons were actually just masters.

I think compared to Zhu's adopted sons, his own biological children, there is no need to worry about these things now. These children are still young, and the oldest is only ten years old. He lives with his mothers. Even if he often doesn't see his father or get company, there is no problem.

The seafood is very good, and Qin Lang's cooking skills are indeed very good.

The whole family was very happy to eat, and even Cunxiao and his brothers praised their adoptive father's cooking skills.

Yu Xiao and others couldn't help but say that when you have time, you must learn how to cook seafood with Qin Lang.

Seeing the dinner over, the whole family said goodbye to each other, talking and laughing, and then left. Qin Lang sat there but didn't leave. Looking at the remaining cups, bowls, plates, and couldn't help but sigh a little.

It is really not easy to maintain this family harmony. I just don’t know if the warm atmosphere of this family will be broken after the princess and big wife of Changle passes by?

When he thought of Changle, he couldn't help but think of Chengqian. Recently, the prince was trying hard to make trouble on his way to death. He or she ordained monks and Taoists, rebuilt Buddhist temples, and carved and printed Buddhist scriptures. He even personally met Master Xuanzang who had returned from Japan, and then agreed to the master's request to go to West India to obtain scriptures.

Not only did he personally write the prince's order to release the prefectures and counties along the way, but he also asked them to entertain and take care of them. He also gave him 3,000 taels of gold for money, sent soldiers to accompany him, and even ordered the construction of a grand temple in Chang'an City to recruit monks who were proficient in Sanskrit scriptures from all over the world. The scholars came to the capital and began to translate Buddhist scriptures, and prepared for Xuanzang to return to obtain the scriptures in the future.

Chengqian was also holding a grand event to welcome Buddha bone relics in Chang'an. He went to the Buddhist temple to marry relics in person, and then took the lead in donating offerings...

Now that there is a craze for worshipping Buddhism in Chang'an, the monks are all proud after being silent for a few years. There are no monks in the Buddhist temples in Chang'an City for several years. Now, Buddhist temples are emerging again, and monks are beginning to appear in Chang'an in groups.

The number of monks and Taoists who were ordered to be ordained again and again has reached 10,000. Most of them were monks and Taoists who were ordered to return to secular life by the imperial court. Many of them failed the examination set by the court, and were ordered to return to secular life after they could not get the certificate of sanctification. Many even had nuns and daughters' crowns to get married and have children. As a result, Chengqian asked them to be re-ordained and directly issued them with certificates of sanctification, and rebuilt temples for them, gave them land, etc.

This lively behavior is called praying for the queen.

But what Qin Lang saw was the smoke barrier, especially in opposition to the national policy implemented by the emperor. This behavior became more and more excessive and had no way to stop.

Qin Lang didn't know how long Li Shimin could tolerate it.

Today, he also received the Crown Prince Order from Chang'an. Chengqian asked Qin Lang to save people in Lingnan and asked to ordain at least 3,000 people. In addition, he also asked him to restore at least 100 temples and asked him to find 100 monks from Lingnan and send them to Chang'an on the road.

After reading it, Qin Lang threw it directly into the trash can.
