Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 3
Chapter 3 Xun Men Li Halberd
The next day, a transfer order flew to Zhaoling, causing a huge uproar.
The gravekeeper, Qin Mubai, was released from military service to serve his sick father.
Eunuchs and pawns alike, no one was willing to stay in this lifeless and drenched imperial mausoleum, guarding the ice-cold Empress Yuan Palace until she died alone. Of course, it was a great blessing to be transferred away. Therefore, Qin Mubai’s incident caused many people to be jealous and discuss.
“After all, he’s the son of the famous Qin Shubao. He’s different from us. Tsk tsk …”
Qin Mubai smiled calmly and accepted the fact happily.
“Looks like it’s already extravagant to travel back. Since you’ve come, you can rest assured. Play the role of Qin Mubai in this life!”-Third Young Master of the Qin Clan, Qin Shubao’s son. Perhaps it’s quite interesting as well. ”
She was born an optimist. After thinking about it, Qin Mubai secretly bid farewell to her parents in the 21st century. She also reluctantly bid farewell to the beautiful car she once owned and the beautiful life.
“Alright, Zhenguan Tang, here I come! I want what I have in the 21st century, and I want what I don’t have in the 21st century! I want what I don’t have here!”
Just as Qin Mubai was packing up his simple clothes in his room and preparing to leave for home, Yuwen Hongtai touched the room. His big copper bell eyes took the lead in glancing at the red-edged transfer order on the table. “Third Brother Qin, why didn’t your transfer order come from the Ministry of War, but was personally approved by the Emperor?”
“Very special?”
“Needless to say?” Yuwen Hongtai pointed at the order and said, “There’s an Emperor’s Seal of Destiny stamped on it. There are eight big characters-‘Emperor’s Destiny, Virtuous Prosperity’! Tsk tsk, according to the rules of our court, only the Emperor can personally approve the transfer or appointment of high ranking officials above the fifth rank! You pawn … cough, cough! Third Brother Qin, I don’t have any other intentions!”
“Didn’t you always call me Old White?” Qin Mubai took the transfer order and glanced at it. The lower left corner was indeed covered with such a large scarlet seal. He whispered to himself, “So the Emperor transferred me back?”
“Third Brother Qin, you really don’t remember anything about that day?” Yuwen Hongtai asked softly, as if he was a little timid.
“What is it?” Qin Mubai frowned and glared at him, “You’re such a big man, why are you twisting Nini’s tongue? If you have something to say, quickly fart!”
“Uh … nothing, I don’t know anything!” Yuwen Hongtai knew that he was speechless and hid it with a chuckle. Back then, Li Junxian had made it clear that whoever dared to divulge the Emperor’s private service to Zhaoling would not be able to bear the burden of the crime of bullying the emperor!
The Great Tang is a state of etiquette in the Central Plains, and the feudal etiquette concept of “husband does not sacrifice his wife” is deeply rooted in people’s minds. If others found out that Li Shimin, the son of heaven, had come to sacrifice his wife, it would be a “scandal” that was neither light nor heavy.
“Whoever gave the order, I’ll go home.” Qin Mubai didn’t want to break the casserole and ask the question to the end. He put away the transfer order and continued to pack his bags. Yuwen Hongtai rubbed his hands at the side and still chuckled. He seemed to have something to say, but he was embarrassed to say it.
Qin Mubai could not help but feel that this man was actually quite nice and honest. He could be considered my first friend after coming to the Great Tang.
“Yuwen Hongtai, do you want to leave Zhaoling?” Qin Mubai took the initiative to ask.
“Wow–Third Brother Qin, do you know how to read people’s minds?” Yuwen Hongtai’s eyes widened as he exclaimed in surprise. At the same time, he thought to himself, What a sinister sect! Ever since he was trampled on by the hooves of a horse two years ago, he had always been stunned when he wasn’t too smart. Not long ago, after having a high fever for a while, he suddenly became so clever, as if he was a different person? How strange! Playing the pipa can also attract the emperor … Fortunately, the empress is not here.
Qin Mubai slung the parcel over his shoulder and punched his sturdy chest, “If it works, I’ll help you.”
“Hehe, as long as I can move out of Zhaoling, I’ll be happy even if I can lead a horse pendant for you as a pawn! I’ll thank Third Brother Qin first! … Oh no, no, Young Master Qin!” Yuwen Hongtai smiled and bowed to Qin Mubai.
With the Tang Dynasty, the term “Young Master” was not as useful to anyone as it was in the flood of historical dramas. According to common practice, only the prime minister of a court above the third rank or the descendants of a noble family were worthy of such a title. Therefore, Yuwen Hongtai’s title could be considered extremely polite.
“Goodbye, Blackie!”
Qin Mubai walked out of the room and left under the gazes of everyone in Zhaoling.
“Blackie?” Yuwen Hongtai rolled his eyes and chuckled, “People from aristocratic families are different. The nicknames they gave are so appropriate!”
There was a horse carriage waiting at the foot of the mountain. However, Qin Manor’s people received the notice and sent a servant to pick Qin Mubai up.
After enjoying the mountain scenery along the way, Qin Mubai got into the car and looked at Chang’an.
“Zhenguan Great Tang is one of the most glorious and bright dynasties in Chinese history. It is said that they never leave home until the end of the day. Moreover, their national strength is extremely strong. Emperor Li Shimin of Zhenguan is also respected as’ Heavenly Khan ‘by outsiders. In the later generations, he even addressed the Chinese as’ Tang people ‘. Many foreign Chinatowns are examples. In that case, I would like to see if this Great Tang is a mere illusion or if it is true! Unfortunately, I don’t know much about history. If I had known that today would come, I should have made up for the history of the Tang Dynasty! ”
Sitting in the carriage, Qin Mubai thought to himself. He also looked forward to and was curious about his father Qin Shubao and a temporarily new Tang Dynasty family.
‘”Dad is Qin Shubao. Father Tiger can’t have a son. Fortunately, I already have an archery stunt and I’ve been cultivating Wudang Inner Taijiquan with my father since childhood. I believe that it won’t be bad even in the Tang Dynasty. In addition, Qin Mubai already has horse spear skills in this life, and the explosive power of the fusion of two souls …”
After accepting the reality in front of him, Qin Mubai began to think about how to live a peaceful life in the future. It was said that the Great Tang Empire was extremely martial and valued military merits. Those who had martial power did not have to worry about a way out. Moreover, they came from the General Sect, so it seemed natural for them to practice martial arts well.
However, based on Qin Mubai’s concept of the 21st century, it was not the best way out for Zicheng Father to act as a general who charged into the front lines. He was known as a general in the 21st century, and had served in the army and held the rank of lieutenant, which taught him at least one thing-that the military was an extension and subordinate of politics, and that even the most powerful generals were the sweethearts of high-ranking politicians.
“It’s not a bad thing to practice martial arts. As for the future, let’s analyze the specific situation. I don’t believe that with my knowledge and skills in the 21st century, I won’t be able to achieve the glory of my life in the Great Tang!-Let’s talk about it at home first!” Qin Mubai said to herself.
Half a day later, the carriage walked onto a smooth road, and the outside of the carriage became lively. Qin Mubai glanced out of the car window and saw that there were a lot of passersby. There were many foreign tourists and merchants dressed in strange clothes. There were also people holding camels carrying goods and speaking different languages and accents. It was as if they could see the exhaustion and dust on the Silk Road of the Western Regions.
“Third Young Master, Chang’an has arrived.”
“Stop!”
Qin Mubai jumped out of the carriage and stopped to look at the famous ancient capital. He couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Amazing!
This was the only word that could describe Qin Mubai’s current feelings!
City, tiger dragon plate; The atmosphere was boundless and magnificent!
Standing in front of the towering blue brick walls of Chang’an, Qin Mubai felt that he was as tiny as an ant. Above the city walls, there were flags and armor-hunting soldiers. It would take an entire day to walk around such a large city that was dozens of kilometers long. Vermillion Bird Avenue, which was 150 meters wide and connected to the Imperial City, was rare even in a modern metropolis. The inner square in the city was neatly distributed like a chessboard. Dozens of streets were crisscrossed between the north and the south, and traffic flowed endlessly. Although there were no high-rise buildings and steel cars in the 21st century, there was a magnificent scene that was simple and unrestrained. It was like a natural painting of ink splashing!
A marvel done by Nature’s hands, over light and shade it dominates; Clouds rise therefrom and lave my breast; My eyes are strained to see birds fleet!
Although he wasn’t looking up the mountain, Qin Mubai clearly had a feeling that he would be Ling Juedong, and his heart suddenly lit up.
“It’s really not as famous as meeting each other. I never thought that the ancient capital of Chang’an a thousand years ago would have such a magnificent atmosphere!” Qin Mubai took a deep breath and greedily admired the majestic imperial capital. He thought to himself, “The imperial capital in its prime is indeed extraordinary. I wonder how many famous people in history have written countless romantic stories here.” How can I, Qin Mubai, fall behind?
I, Qin Mubai, will surely lead the way in this prosperous era of unparalleled Chang’an romance!
“Third Young Master, get in the car and leave quickly. Master and Madam are waiting at home!” The coachman’s words woke Qin Mubai up from the endless YY.
After boarding the carriage again, the carriage merged into the traffic and stepped into the huge Chang’an City. The streets in the city were divided into several residential areas. The streets between the small areas were thirty to forty meters wide. It wasn’t easy to find a family even after entering the Li Fang.
After a while, the carriage stopped. Although there were many memories of this life in his mind, Qin Mubai was still worried that he would get lost the next time he went home.
After getting off the carriage, he saw a large arched Vermillion Gate Manor with a plaque reading “Qin Manor”. But what attracted Qin Mubai even more was the twelve-sided Heavenly Painting Halberd that was inserted neatly beside the door!
Remaining memories of this life told Qin Mubai that in the Great Tang of Zhenguan, there was no strict halberd-erecting system, and not everyone was qualified to erect a halberd in front of the manor. Unless they possessed special honors and merits and were granted special privileges by the Emperor, even the Imperial Prince Clan and the current Cheng Zai would not be able to do so!
The Twelve Halberds of the Xun Sect was the unique honor of the Qin Family in the Chastity Monastery.
Throughout the government and the public, Ge is still-only one, no semicolon!
