Qin Qiong likes Li Jin very much. In his words, Li Jin is born to be a good martial arts scholar. He is talented than his sons, so he always wants to accept him as a disciple. However, Princess Pingyang disagreed, mainly because Qin Qiong is too strict with the students. For example, those who were just now were all his students, but they were really picked. They were covered in purple all day long. Li Jin was young before, so Princess Pingyang naturally couldn't bear it.

"Haha, it's almost the same. Jin'er wants to study in the military academy. Wouldn't he be your student in the future?" Li Xiu laughed at this time. He also knew that Qin Qiong liked Jin'er, but just now he saw the tragic situation of Qin Huaidao and several other children with his own eyes, which made him a little worried. Will his son suffer such pain when he goes to the military academy?

"Jin'er is going to the military academy?" Qin Qiong couldn't help but lit up and down when he heard this. Then he looked at Li Jin next to him for a few glances, and then said again, "Not bad, Jin'er is not only suitable for martial arts, but also extremely intelligent. Huaidao's stinky brats are older than him, but they are usually willing to listen to him, which shows that he is born with the potential to be a commander!"

"Haha, it doesn't matter whether he can be the commander. The key is that this child is too naughty. He can cause trouble everywhere at home. It's better to put it in the military academy and let him take it apart." Li Xiu smiled indifferently at Qin Qiong's praise and said, "If Qin Qiong knew that Princess Pingyang only planned to let Li Jin be a general who would not go to the battlefield in the future, I wonder what he would think?

"No problem, the military academy is about to start recruiting students, and Huai Dao and Chu Liang have also signed up. Although Jin'er is a little younger, it doesn't matter. The military academy has opened a new junior military class this year, which specializes in recruiting children from powerful families. They not only learn military tactics, but also have to learn some ordinary courses. They are taught by some erudite scholars themselves. Even if they don't join the army in the future, they may be able to take the imperial examination!" Qin Qiong smiled again immediately.

"I have also heard of this young army class. The Persian king Yi Siqi, whom I recommended last time, was studying in this young army class. Even His Majesty wanted several princes to go there. However, I think the prince's education is very heavy, and it may be difficult to go to the military academy." Li Xiu couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

However, there was one thing that Li Xiu didn't tell the truth, because the prince's visit to the military academy was originally decided by Li Shimin, but it was unanimously opposed by several ministers. Although they had many reasons, there was only one core reason, that is, the prince did not need to know how to lead troops, so as not to retake Li Shimin's old path in the future. In the end, Li Shimin could not withstand so many people, so he had to compromise.

Qin Qiong also knew the inside story of why the prince could not go to the military academy to study, and he laughed at the moment, but both of them knew it and did not break it. After all, although everyone knew about some things, they could never be discussed openly.

It was almost noon at this time, and Qin Qiong asked someone to hold a banquet in the mansion, but Li Xiu was not polite. Li Jin, Qin Huaidao and others had not seen each other for a long time. After all, Qin Huaidao and the others were all detained during this period. At most, they came to Qin Qiong to practice martial arts and had no way to go out, so they were also chatting and chatting together while eating.

"By the way, I heard that Su Dingfang sent people from Liaodong last winter, but he left soon. Is there something wrong with Liaodong?" Qin Qiong suddenly asked, his face full of concern. He was very concerned about the war in Liaodong. After all, he only had the only wish to destroy Goguryeo.

"It's nothing big. It's just that Su Dingfang sent the spoils seized by Liaodong to Chang'an to pay to the bank. After all, the bank's bid is fair. As for Liaodong, it is estimated that he will definitely launch another army this spring, but no news has been heard back yet." Li Xiu explained with a smile.

However, when he said this, Li Xiu suddenly realized that Qin Qiong in front of him was indeed old. Not only was the whiter and less blacker in his hair, but there were also many fine lines on the corners of his forehead and eyes, and even his eyes were no longer as bright as before. This made Li Xiu's heart say, "Since ancient times, beauties sighed at the age of time, and heroes are not allowed to see white hair."

"It's fine. As long as Su Dingfang can last for a few years, it will definitely consume a lot of Goguryeo's national strength. When His Majesty sends troops again, no one in the court will object!" Qin Qiong heard Li Xiu's answer and said with a faint smile. He agreed with the practice of consuming Goguryeo's national strength. Although he is getting older and has less hope of leading troops every year, he is still unwilling to take risks in the Tang army.

"You're still General Qin, you can understand it. Uncle Ma wants to raise troops to destroy Goguryeo immediately." Li Xiu was also a little moved when he saw Qin Qiong's old attitude, and then changed the subject.

"Haha, I understand Brother Ma's mood. After all, we are getting older and older. We go to bed tonight and don't know if we can wake up tomorrow morning. Moreover, Brother Ma has always wanted to restrain his bones for the brothers who died in Liaodong. If he waits for a few more years, he may be worried that he will not have the energy to do this at that time!" What Li Xiu did not expect was that when Qin Qiong heard him mention Mr. Ma, he sighed again.

"Father, why are you talking about this? You and Uncle Ma are so strong, better than us young people. I think you and Uncle Ma will live for decades!" As soon as Qin Qiong finished speaking, Qin Huaidao interrupted him at this time. Although these juniors were lively, they were still listening to the conversation between Li Xiu and Qin Qiong.

"That's right, Huai Dao can speak. You and Uncle Ma have come through the sea of ​​swords and fires, and the snow and ice. Now our Tang Dynasty is so powerful, and there is no need to worry about food and drink. If you don't live for a hundred years, wouldn't it be a loss?" Li Xiu agreed with the market when he heard this.

When Qin Qiong heard his son and Li Xiu's words, he couldn't help but laugh. Li Jin and the others were also very clever. At this time, they also said some witty words. This finally made Qin Qiong's mood gradually cheerful, and even joked with the children.

"By the way, in addition to Jin'er, I also want to recommend two people to the military academy!" But at this moment, Li Xiu suddenly spoke again, and his words also stunned Li Jin, who was sitting below, because Li Xiu had never said this before they came.

"Oh? Who are the two?" Qin Qiong asked without much care. After all, as Li Xiu's identity, it is normal to recommend a few students to the military academy every year.

"The two sons of the late Duke Ying Guo, Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang!" Li Xiu said without hesitation, as if the names of these two people had long been around him.

"Father, what do you mean..." Li Jin below heard Li Xiu's words and almost jumped up excitedly, even interrupting regardless of etiquette. However, he closed his mouth halfway through the conversation and did not continue.

Qin Qiong turned his head and looked at Li Jin strangely, and then asked Li Xiu: "Martial Warrior is indeed a talented person, but I heard that his two sons were very incompetent and did not inherit his talent at all. Why did the prince-in-law suddenly recommend them to the military academy?"

Li Xiu knew that Qin Qiong would ask this, so he sighed and said, "Last year, Duke Ying Guo, Wu Shiyan, passed away. Before he passed away, he asked me to take care of his family. Because he was buried in Bingzhou, his family also went to Bingzhou last year, and I had no chance to take care of him. However, yesterday, Mrs. Wu came back from Bingzhou and brought back some actions about the Wu brothers, and they..."

When he said this, Li Xiu deliberately paused, then shook his head and sighed again: "I'm just saying it clearly that the Wu brothers are rampant in Bingzhou and have caused a lot of trouble, and local officials dare not care about them, which leads to the Wu family's anger in Bingzhou. They even drove Mrs. Wu and two daughters out of the mansion, which can be said to be shameless!"

"Since they have such a bad character, why do you recommend them to the military academy?" Qin Qiong couldn't help but ask even more strangely when he heard this. After all, not everyone can enter the military academy. Will arrangements for the two scum of the Wu family to enter, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the military academy?

"General Qin, think about it carefully. Now the Wu brothers are relying on the blessings left by Duke Ying, so they are doing things wrong in the local area, but they dare not care about it. The sufferings are still the local people. Moreover, the blessings left by Duke Ying will be used up one day sooner or later, and they will definitely be severely punished at that time. Although they deserve the sin, they are the sons of Duke Ying after all, and I feel unbearable."

When he said this, Li Xiu paused for a moment and then said, "It is precisely because of the above reasons that I want them to enter the military academy. In this way, they cannot do anything wrong in the local area. Moreover, the military academy is strict. If they have been studying in it for a few years, even if they can't bring soldiers, they can at least change their bad habits, so as not to ruin the reputation of Duke Ying from outside."

Hearing Li Xiu's words, Qin Qiong couldn't help but nodded in praise. He was a very righteous person. Li Xiu had promised that Warriors would take care of his family and now he could fulfill his promise. This made him respect him very much. So after thinking for a while, he nodded quickly and said, "Okay, since it is the hard work of the prince-consort, I will agree, but their character is not good, so I may arrange them to be a few strict instructors!"

"No problem, the stricter the better. If they dare not accept it, they will beat them. I will bear the consequences. I will treat it as educating his son for the deceased Duke Ying!" Li Xiu immediately patted his chest and promised when he heard Qin Qiong's words.
