ALL NOVEL Chapter 286
Qin Yilin was singing enthusiastically when he suddenly saw a figure running over.
He frowned and quietly left the team without disturbing anyone.
"Why are you so impatient?"
Yuchi Junjun panted and said, "Outside the palace gate, there came a woman who claimed to be the wife of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites."
Qin Yilin couldn't help but sigh. He patted the other person's shoulder heavily and said earnestly.
"Yuchi, didn't I tell you a long time ago? During my rehearsal, you will be in charge of the guarding of Ziwei City. If anything goes wrong, I will take responsibility."
"But..."
"You and I are both from the family of generals. I think Duke Zhongwu of Eguo doesn't want to see you like this, right?"
Qin Yilin is the sixth son of Duke Hu Qin Qiong, and is older than Yuchi Junjun. (Original character, no record in historical materials.)
Speaking of which, the two are somewhat related.
Qin Yilin, like his elder brother Qin, married the granddaughter of Yuchi Jingde. According to seniority, Qin Yilin is Yuchi Junjun's brother-in-law.
Both of them can be said to be the second generation of generals, and it is normal for them to be able to hold this position.
Qin Qiong's son Qin Shandao is the inspector of the Left Jinwu Guard, and Yuchi Gong's son Yuchi Baoqi is the inspector of the Right Jinwu Guard.
It is said that there is no dog son in a general's family. Qin Yilin can become the inspector of the Qianniu Guard at a young age. In addition to the relationship behind him, he is also very capable.
And what he values most is Yuchi Junjun, the young brother-in-law, and he wants to train him as a successor.
Because except for the generals who went abroad to fight, the tenure of other generals is actually not long, which may be the suspicion of the saints.
Therefore, Qin Yilin thought about giving power to Yuchi Junjun as much as possible while he was still able to eat.
Unfortunately, Xiao Junjun's performance today made him a little disappointed.
"Did you ask the other party's name?"
"Yes, she said her name is Cui Mengzhu, and her courtesy name is Nianzhen."
"In the future, if you encounter such a relative who claims to be a certain official, go directly to ask the person in question, understand?"
Yuchi Junjun nodded heavily, and then prepared to run away.
Qin Yilin stopped him and helped him tidy up his appearance.
"She is a third-rank Taichang Temple Minister. Although I know that you two have a good relationship, there are also ranks among the officials. She is a minister, and you are the lowest among the officials. You can be unscrupulous in private, but in front of others, you must give her enough face."
"Do you understand?"
Yuchi Junjun was stunned. To be honest, he really didn't think of this level.
On weekdays, he often imitated Song Zhen and called the other party a "diaomao".
Although he didn't know what "diaomao" meant, he heard it so many times that he followed suit.
Yuchi Junjun walked in an orthodox military step, walked in front of Song Zhen, and saluted.
"Minister of the Ministry of Rites, there is a woman outside Ziwei City who claims to be your wife, Cui Mengzhu, with the name Nianzhen, is it true?"
Song Zhen was originally surprised that Xiao Junjun was so serious today, and before he had time to make a joke, he was stunned after hearing it.
Why is she here?
Song Zhen's eyes moved, he was weighing the pros and cons, and finally nodded.
"She is my wife, let her go."
"There is also a woman named Yan Zhaoping who went with her."
"Let them in together." Song Zhen looked at him with a strange expression, "Don't you know her, kid?"
"This is the procedure, please understand, Minister of the Ministry of Rites."
"Okay." Song Zhen certainly understood.
Most people think that if outsiders want to enter the palace, they cannot enter without the emperor's oral order.
But in the Tang Dynasty, it is not so strict. There are a hundred thousand Qianniu guards in Ziwei City. Which little thief dares to come in and cause trouble?
In addition, it is a special period now, and Song Zhen is of noble status, so special things have to be done.
Just as Yuchi Junjun was about to leave, he was stopped by Song Zhen again.
"Let them come in from Jiayu Gate, don't let them go through Yingtian Gate."
Yuchi Junjun's expression froze. Yes, how could he neglect it?
Jiayu Gate is located above the west gate of Luocheng and is the closest palace gate to Baixi Hall.
If the two came in from the main gate Yingtian Gate, it would easily cause gossip and be disadvantageous to themselves.
Unexpectedly, Song Zhen, a civil servant, thought more carefully than himself.
It seems that I still need to continue to study hard.
......
Not long after, Cui Mengzhu and Yan Zhaoping came to Baixi Hall in the palace carriage arranged by Qianniuwei.
Song Zhen saw his wife, put down his work, and went forward to hug her.
Cui Mengzhu's pretty face flushed, and her little fist punched his chest.
"So many people are watching, what are you doing?"
"I have such a beautiful wife, I want to let everyone in the world know."
Cui Mengzhu said angrily: "You are so smooth-talking."Her heart was warm. Song Zhen's actions were undoubtedly to announce her identity to others and keep other women with ulterior motives out.
How many men in the world can do what Song Zhen did?
Song Zhen took her hand, walked in front of everyone, and said loudly: "My colleagues, this beauty is my wife-to-be."
Cui Mengzhu performed a lady's salute and smiled faintly: "I am Cui Mengzhu, a commoner, and I am here to meet you all."
Because she was wearing a white veil, everyone couldn't see her face clearly, but judging from her figure, she must be quite good.
Today, Cui Mengzhu was wearing a Ming Dynasty Hanfu, which made her look particularly dignified and virtuous.
A group of courtesans were discussing: "I didn't expect that the Minister of the Ministry of Rites already has a wife? How come I've never heard of it?"
"Didn't you notice what the Minister of the Ministry of Rites said, 'not married yet'?"
"Ah? Not married yet, doesn't that mean I have a chance?"
"You're dreaming, don't you see how much they love each other? Even if she's a concubine, it's not your turn."
"Don't hit me like that."
"The Minister of the Ministry of Rites is a rare and extraordinary man in the world. He doesn't even look at his wife, Tianxian, straight, so how can we, the common powder, get married?"
This sentence reached the ears of the fairy girl, she silently lowered her head and plucked the strings of the zither, the sound of the zither was chaotic, just like her mood at the moment.
Yan Zhaoping put down the drawing board and kicked Song Zhen unhappily: "Hey, didn't you notice me?"
"Ah? Why are you here? When did it happen?" Song Zhen pretended to be shocked, which made Yan Zhaoping very angry!
At this time, Tian Qi just came back with something. He carefully placed a drum that was much larger than his body on the ground.
"Alang, the drum you want."
He raised his head and showed his signature silly smile.
Then the next second, he suddenly noticed the woman in a light green coat behind Song Zhen. He froze in place as if he had been electrocuted.
Ah, is it the feeling of heartbeat?
"Hey, idiot, why are you looking at me like that? Haven't you seen it before?" Yan Zhaoping, who was very angry, punched Tian Qi's abdominal muscles.
There was no way, he was too short to reach his chest.
He had to jump up to punch this guy's chest, but how unsightly would that be? Yan Zhaoping always remembered that she was a lady now and couldn't be so violent.
This punch woke Tian Qi up, and he touched his head and smiled silly.
"It's Pingyang, I almost didn't recognize him."
Seeing his honest appearance, Yan Zhaoping pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you so tall and strong? Every time someone wants to talk to you, they have to look up."
