Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 1464 Chang'an Emperor VS Luzon Taishi
Qin Jun came in wearing a long sword.

"Father, the envoy from Luoyang has sent the emperor's imperial edict."

Qin Lang looked up from a pile of notes, and saw that the 68-year-old eldest son's eyes were a little red, his back was still so straight, and his beard was always trimmed so he looked majestic.

This blood lion of the Qin family is old.The golden lion of the Qin family suddenly thought that the eldest son was actually older than himself.

"It's been hard work for you during this time, and you should also pay attention to rest. After all, both of us are in their seventies and eighties."

"I hope that I can do a good job in entrusting my father. This matter is related to our Qin family for generations to come."

Qin Lang just chuckled, "There is no such thing as eternal generations, even the five surnames and seven clans dare not say that. Most of the five surnames and seven families can only be traced back to the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, which is only four or five hundred years Time, and rise and fall. When our Qin family compiled the ancestral tree and family biography, it can be traced back to the three generations of ancient times, but what is the significance of that."

"Even if it's planned for the next three to five hundred years, that's not bad." Qin Jun said.

"Have you met the envoy?" Qin Lang asked.

Qin Lang wanted to re-adjust the enfeoffment system in Luzon. Although Luzon is now an autonomous foreign territory, such major events naturally had to be done without the emperor's approval, especially when it involved the same status as Luzon. The three kingdoms of Dongsheng, Nanfang and Xinpenglai.

Qin Jun looked at his father, he was 85 soon, but he looked younger than himself, he was always so energetic, he didn't take pills and didn't believe in magicians, but his body was always so strong, and he was rarely seen when he was sick. Perhaps it is related to his father's emphasis on the combination of work and rest, which has something to do with maintaining exercise all year round.

In particular, he can control desires and know how to restrain himself. Whether it is eating or lusting, he can control them.

Moreover, my father seems to be able to maintain an optimistic attitude no matter what time he is, especially in his later years.

"It is Gao Yanshou and Yang Zhenliang who came to proclaim the decree. Gao Yanshou is the adopted son of Xuanhui envoy Gao Fu, and Yang Zhenliang is the adopted son of Gao Yanshou. He is also holding an important position in the palace now. Zipao Yu brought them."

Qin Lang smiled, "Gao Fu's dog slave is still alive, but Yang Sixuan's dog slave has gained power in recent years."

"Those are just the emperor's two dogs, and without father's support, they would not be where they are today."

Gao Fu was arranged by Qin Lang to enter the palace. He made his fortune by assisting Qin Jun to support Gaozong. At the critical moment, he betrayed him and raised Gao Fu. After that, he was appreciated by the Queen of Heaven. He has been in power in the palace for more than 30 years. He is in a semi-retired state, but a bunch of his adopted sons also occupy high positions in the inner court.

As for Yang Sixuan, the most powerful eunuch in the palace today, it was because of the appreciation of the Queen Mother Qin that he had the opportunity to lead the army in the palace. When he went to Lingnan to quell the chaos in the first battle, he also rushed to Lu Song to meet Qin Lang first. Then he asked for a few letters from Qin Lang, and with them, he met with several high-ranking officials and generals in Lingnan, especially contacting Feng and Xian, the local tyrants. Put down the rebellion and make meritorious deeds.

Afterwards, Yang Sixu went out several times to fight against the rebels to quell the rebellion. Basically, he had to pay homage to the Qin family first, follow the path of the Qin family, and borrow the Qin family's family history and even the local connections of the children, in order to successfully put down the rebellion again and again.

Don't look at Yang Sixu now being made a Duke of the State like Gao Fu, and worshiping as a second-rank general, but in front of the Qin family, these two people are still extremely respectful.

Without it, in the palace they have to rely on several Queen Mothers of Qin, and outside the palace, they have to rely on the Qin family's influence, otherwise their position as eunuchs will not be stable.

How many people in the government and the opposition did not like the eunuchs. Without the powerful Qin family as an alliance, it would have been unstable for a long time.

The two sent their adopted sons to Luzon, which also shows that the two still respect Qin Taishi very much.

"What did you say?"

"The Son of Heaven never refuses to do what his father asks."

Lu Song is an outer kingdom, so are Dongsheng, Nanshan, and Xinpenglai. Even these three kingdoms were originally entrusted by Qin Lang to the emperor for his second son and grandson. Now they want to change it, but the emperor is not impatient at all. , how you want to change, as the grand master wishes, all are allowed.

"The emperor's promise was a bit too cheerful." Qin Lang said.

Qin Jun said calmly, "I heard that the new emperor is smarter than Zhongzong, and he seems to want to do something."

"Ha ha."

Qin Lang just smiled, "Who doesn't want to? Emperor Zhongzong wanted to do something back then, but why was he addicted to wine and sex in the end? It's not that he didn't want to do it, but he couldn't do it. It has been nearly 70 years, and various forces are intertwined and extremely complicated. It is not easy for the emperor to do what he wants to do. Zhongzong has been in power for more than 18 years, and he has not been able to really control the court for [-] years after taking office. Now the young emperor talks about it. too early."

"However, I have seen the performance of the emperor since he succeeded to the throne, but he is still very organized and even a mansion."

Qin Lang waved his hand, "A smart emperor treats everyone well, that means he knows how to advance and retreat, and compromises. I'm afraid that if he meets that kind of incompetent but conceited emperor, if he insists on twisting his nerve to the end, in the end, everyone will die." happy."

Zhongzong Li Ye was very smart before. After he tried everything, he found that he was powerless to change the court, so in the end he stopped tossing, compromised, and went back to the harem to enjoy himself. It’s just that he might be a little depressed after all, so after 30 He died when he was young.

Qin Lang doesn't think that the young emperor Li Hao can be better than his father. He is still young, and he still has time to struggle. If he hasn't been smoothed out in 30 or [-] years, he still has the passion to fight and has a long life. , being able to break the curse of the Li family's emperor's short life, maybe he will be able to do something in the future, but Qin Lang definitely can't see that situation anymore.

Now that the emperor has granted his request, let's continue to finish this matter.

"They want to come to see Grandpa, see you?"

"Since we have come all the way, we have to see each other. We in Luzon also respect etiquette." Qin Lang said with a smile.

·······
Clear the way with a clear whip.

Drums blared, "The king is coming!"

In the knight academy, all the elders of the Qin family stood up to greet him.

Qin Lang specially put on the silk armor today. This is a military uniform improved by Lu Song. It is light and breathable but colorful, and the simple tailoring reveals the majesty of a general.

On the shoulders of the silk armor, there are also stars, six gold stars, which are the unique title of General Tiance in the Tang Dynasty.

General Lang has one star, General Zhonglang has two stars, the generals of the northern and southern government guards have three stars, the general has four stars, and the general has five stars.

There are also six golden general stars on the collar of the silk armor.

There are many medals pinned to Qin Lang's chest, these are the honors bestowed by several emperors.

On the arm of the silk armour, there is an identity armband with Qin Lang's rank and rank on it.

Behind Qin Lang are his eldest sons, General Zuo Yulin, Five Star General, King Dongsheng Qin Jun, and a group of Qin family children behind him.

The elders stood up to greet them.

Today, they also put on silk armor on purpose. These silk armor look straight and mighty, especially those who are shining with stars, at least three-star generals. They also have many medals on their chests, most of them are Qin Lang. Awarded in the name of the King of Luzon, in recognition of their contributions to Luzon.

"I'm very happy to see that you old guys are still here. I'm afraid I won't see a few old faces."

Lao Huang, who is more than 100 years old, took the lead to greet us, "Sanlang treated us old guys so well, how could we be willing to leave early!"

Huang Biao, Wei Chang, Cui Yixuan, Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu, Qin Yong, Qin Yong, Qin Cunxiao, Qin Cunyi, etc., are basically gray-haired old men. These people are also veterans of Qin Lang's pioneering of Lu Song , and now they are all consultants of Qin Lang's advisory group.

Don’t look at the old ones who seem to be dying. They are all young when they are six or seventy years old, five or six are over 70 years old, and those who are eight or ninety years old are the main force. But these people have great energy in Luzon.

Behind each person represents a huge family force.

Just like Qin Lang's thirteen adoptive sons, who used to be in charge of the four yamen and the thirteenth army, although they have retreated to the second line now, they are still not to be underestimated.

"Sit everyone!"

Qin Lang patted his adopted son Qin Cunxiao, "Why are your backs bent? I haven't seen you for more than half a year. I feel that you have aged a lot."

"Grandpa, I'm almost 77 this year. If it weren't for the health-preserving prescriptions that Grandpa gave me, I guess I would have gone to hell to see my old brothers."

Qin Lang smiled, "Maybe we can see your Turkic father when we get to the Nine Springs."

"Even if he is waiting for me, I will not recognize him. I, Qin Cunxiao, have only one father in this life, and that is the grand master. That Turkic slave is not my father, but my enemy. He went south with the Turkic army to plunder Hedong, I raped my mother, and finally abandoned her. My mother was insulted and suffered so much, and finally gave birth to me, but she still starved to death at the foot of Beiman Mountain. Some sacrifices in front of the tomb also starved to death long ago, and at that time, there was only one wild bastard named Datou missing in the world. It was because I met the Grand Master that I got a new life!"

Speaking of these, Qin Cunxiao was still very excited.

When Qin Lang met this kid in front of the tombs of Luo Shixin and Pei Xingyan, he was still called Li Datou. Qin Lang saved him and named him Li Cunxiao, letting him inherit his mother's surname. No other ideas.

But this kid is indeed a person who knows how to repay his kindness. Qin Lang helped him to study and practice martial arts. Later, he worked hard to become a captain in the Forbidden Army. He was young and promising, and he had a bright future. Come over here.

Most of Qin Lang's other adopted sons are poor people in troubled times with similar backgrounds as Cun Xiao, war orphans or starving people, etc. Qin Lang is not like other aristocrats adopting sons, he just treats them as trusted servants and raises them. Like parents and children, send them to study and practice martial arts, and even pave the way for them to enter official careers.

But in the end, they all chose to go south to vote for Qin Lang, to assist Qin Lang in developing Wu'an, conquering Lu Song, and establishing a solid foundation in Nanyang.

Qin Lang also conferred titles and allocated land for them in Luzon.

Now, it's time to give them back further.
