Chapter 106 Young Qin Qiong

Zhua County is adjacent to Licheng County and faces each other across the old road of Jishui River. Since Licheng County is located to the south of Jishui River, this is the origin of the name Jinan.

Pei Xiu led three hundred horsemen and galloped to Licheng County on the same day.

The Qin family in Qi County has lived in Licheng for generations and is a prominent local family. Pei Xiu easily found Qin Ai's house.

"Sir, please go back. My master has been led away many times, but he has nothing to do. He doesn't want to be disturbed by servants anymore."

The steward who had entered the door hurriedly ran back, and the acting master refused.

Pei Xiu frowned and said:

"Can you make it clear to Duke Qin that it was Cui Shijun, Henan's consolation ambassador, who invited him to join the army and serve as Sima Xiangzhi to assist in disaster relief and rescuing the people?"

"My servant dare not hide it. My master has made up his mind. I hope you will forgive me, sir."

For the sake of the three hundred armored knights behind Pei Xiu, the manager's attitude was very respectful.

Seeing that Qin Ai was shameless, the cavalryman Wang Qing who followed him shouted:

"Pei Changshi, don't talk to them any more. Let's go to the government and kidnap the old man named Qin to be a blessing!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an eleven-year-old boy went out with a horse that was much longer than his height. He shouted:

"Let's see who dares to invade my house and disturb my father's peace!"

Dozens of servants armed with sticks poured out of the mansion one after another, confronting the three hundred black-armored knights. The servants' hands were shaking slightly, and they obviously rushed out with the courage to follow the young man in the mansion, but the young man was fearless.

Pei Xiu sat on the horse, bent over and looked at the young man in front of him.

Although he is young, he has sharp eyesight and the palms he holds are full of calluses. It can be seen that Cui Che's lazy attitude of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days are two extremes in terms of martial arts.

Pei Xiu knew in her heart that this young man was Qin Ai's only son Qin Qiong. She also remembered Cui Che's instructions, even if she had to kidnap Qin Ai's family to see him, she also specifically told him not to let Qin Qiong go.

Seeing that Qin Ai was unwilling to apply, Pei Xiu straightened up and raised his right hand. The three hundred horsemen behind him took out their lances and prepared for battle.

Qin Qiong was fearless, but the look in his eyes made Pei Xiu feel that the young man was eager to give it a try and wanted to wait for a while with the three hundred black-armored knights behind him.

"stop!"

A loud shout came from the house, and when Qin Qiong heard the sound, he reluctantly took the horse back. Dozens of servants holding sticks let out a long sigh of relief.

When Pei Xiu saw that the master was about to go out to meet the guests, he ordered the three hundred knights behind him to put away their lances, and then he dismounted.

A middle-aged man in his late forties with a strong build walked out of the gate of Qin Mansion. It was Qin Ai, the father of Qin Qiong.

Qin Ai and Pei Xiu greeted each other and sighed:

"Now that I have confessed my love, I have returned to my hometown and lived quietly in Hengxiang. Why does Pei Changshi have to deal with each other so hard?"

Pei Xiu heard this and said seriously:

"Without my persecution, the victims of the disaster in Qingzhou are now scattered and starving to death everywhere. Lord Cui has the heart to save Li Shu, but he suffers from the lack of people under his tent.

"When I came to Qingzhou, I heard about the virtuous name of Duke Qin, so I sent the showman to recruit him.

"If it weren't for an emergency situation and we couldn't leave him for a moment, Cui Shijun would have to come to visit us in person to express our feelings."

Qin Ai asked:

"If Qin insists on his true intention and refuses to serve as an official, what will happen to Pei Changshi?"

Pei Xiu turned around, glanced at the three hundred black-armored knights behind him, and said with a smile:

"Qin Gong is selfish and does not care about the life and death of the people of Qingzhou. Why should I treat him politely?"

Qin Qiong on the side heard this and shouted:

"Don't use your righteousness to oppress others, and don't even think about using words to threaten me. If you want to force my father, you should first ask me about Qin Qiong's hand!"

In the novel, Qin Qiong's most famous weapon is the family heirloom mace, but in fact, the children of the gentry who aspired to join the army have been practicing horse riding since they were young, and what they learned is horseback kung fu.

As the saying goes, every inch is long and every inch is strong. The reason why Cui Che's cavalrymen use lances more often is because most of them cannot dance with their horses.

"Qiong'er, shut up!"

Qin Ai turned around and shouted.

Then he looked at Pei Xiu again:

"According to Pei Changshi's wishes, if Qin doesn't go to Zhu'a, the house will suffer a military disaster today?"

Pei Xiu shook his head and said:

"I don't dare, but my envoy sincerely invites you, but Duke Qin insists on refusing to invite me thousands of miles away. Pei can only invite Duke Qin to congratulate you first, and then ask envoy Cui to make a decision."

Pei Xiu pronounced the word "please" very strongly. Of course, Qin Ai also knew what the so-called "please" meant. Cui Che sent 300 cavalry to accompany him, not only to serve as a guard for Pei Xiu.

.

"Forget it! Qin will go with Pei Changshi to Zhu'a to help Cui Shijun in relieving the disaster and rescuing the people."

Qin Ai finally relaxed, turned around and ordered Qin Qiong:

"Qiong'er, you are so good at taking care of the house and your mother."

"Wait a minute!"

Before Qin Ai finished speaking, he was interrupted by Pei Xiu:

"It seems that Duke Qin misses his family, so why not take his wife and children with him? Cui Shijun will definitely arrange them properly."

Qin Ai said angrily:

"Since Qin has applied for the army, he will do his best to help. Why does Pei Changshi doubt him?"

"Mr. Qin has misunderstood. You are asking your family to accompany you. This is not a pledge. It is actually to make you love and protect Gong Qin and not bear the separation of Gong Qin from his wife and children. Mr. Qin, please rest assured. No one will restrict Gong Qin and his family when we arrive at Zhu'a."

free."

Pei Xiu quickly explained that he actually didn't know why Cui Che insisted on bringing Qin Ai's family members with him. Could it be that he was attracted to Mrs. Qin?

But Qin Ai is thirty-eight years old now, and his wife must not be much younger. Besides, his cousin has never been to Licheng, and Qin Ai's wife is not well-known, so it is impossible to think about it.

Seeing Pei Xiu's resolute attitude, Qin Ai looked at the three hundred knights behind him and could only sigh secretly and ordered:

"Qiong'er, let your mother pack her bags."

I wish you a great camp outside the city.

It was dark at night, and Cui Che was sitting barefoot at the head table in the handsome tent. There was food on the table, but he refused to move his chopsticks.

Zhao Wen hurried in:

"The head of the family, Pei Changshi has brought Qin Ai's family back."

Upon hearing this, Cui Che quickly picked up the bowl, took a few mouthfuls of food, and then vomited it on the table.

He deliberately ran out of the tent with his bare feet and no shoes on.

Seeing the middle-aged man walking with Pei Xiu, Cui Che smiled heartily and said:

"Cui is really looking forward to Duke Qin coming!"

But under He Xi's smile, he was complaining in his heart: I asked Zhao Wen to put some pebbles outside the tent, why did he only pick the sharp ones!

Qin Ai looked at Cui Che who came barefoot to greet him and his expression twitched. Although he knew that the young man did it deliberately, he was also deeply moved. He was forced to leave home, and his resentment was still lingering in his heart. He snorted coldly:

"Cui Shijun sent a large army to invite you. If Qin doesn't come, I'm afraid his house will be torn down."

Cui Che's expression changed when he heard this, and he said angrily:

"Pei Shaocai! I just saw that you are a scholar and are polite, so I let you go to Licheng. I thought you would move people with your love. How dare you force Duke Qin! Today you have offended Duke Qin, how can I forgive you?

!Left and right! Drag Pei Xiu down and beat him with twenty army sticks!"

Pei Xiu was speechless and thought to herself: Cui Zicheng, just be a human being.

Qin Ai watched Cui Che's rebuke, and finally swallowed the words 'it's over', and began to plead for Pei Xiu.

There is no record of Qin Qiong's birth year in the history books, so we simply follow the "Shuo Tang Biography", which states that in 577 when the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed Qi, Qin Qiong was five years old, so by backward calculation, he was born in 573 AD.

Of course, this is definitely not an accurate age. "Shuo Tang Zhuan" is just a novel. The beginning of the book is that Yang Zhong was the marching marshal in 577 and led an army of 600,000 to destroy the Qi Dynasty. However, historically Yang Zhong died in 568.

Qin Qiong's father was named Qin Ai, not Qin Yi.
