Qin Qiong was still engrossed in Du Ruhui's shocking deduction. When he saw Li Shiming suddenly beckoning at him, he was unable to react for a moment.
After Cheng Yaojin called out " Old Qin " again, Qin Qiong came back to her senses. She quickly ran to Li Shimin and apologized in a deep voice," Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was a little distracted just now..."
" It's fine, it's fine…" Li Shimin smiled generously." I just wanted to chat with Uncle Bao."”
Cheng Yaojin was surprised to see Li Shiming's expression.
Li Shiming was still young. After he ascended the throne, he rarely spoke so kindly in front of others in order to maintain the emperor's dignity.
But now, Cheng Yaojin clearly saw the intention of flattery from Li Shiming's smile…
Was His Majesty trying to curry favor with Old Qin?
Why?
Cheng Yaojin was confused, but he quickly guessed that it had something to do with the contents of the note.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yaojin instantly became extremely curious. He pretended to be invisible while listening carefully to the conversation between Li Shiming and Qin Qiong.
……
Li Shi Min's smile just now, not only did Cheng Yaojin feel strange, Qin Qiong was also flattered.
"What does Your Majesty want to know? I will tell you everything I know!"
Qin Qiong didn't know if Li Shiming was hiding a knife in his smile, subconsciously expressing his loyalty.
" Don't be so nervous…I said it's a chat, so it's a chat…" Li Shiming walked closer to Qin Qiong and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
" Your Majesty, please tell me…" Qin Qiong was slightly relieved, and her attitude was still respectful.
"You said last time that Qin Huaifeng had been in Lianyun Castle for half a year?”Li Shi Min started the conversation casually.
"Yes, Your Majesty. My son went to Lianyun Castle in early February. It has been more than six months since then!”
When Qin Qiong heard Li Shimin ask about Qin Huaifeng, he immediately felt that something was wrong.
What did His Majesty mean?
Could it be that he was dissatisfied with Huaifeng being a deserter and wanted to take back his promise of betrothing Princess Chang Le to Qin Huaifeng?
If that was the case, Qin Qiong would definitely agree without hesitation.
He didn't expect Qin Huaifeng to marry Princess Chang Le, so he didn't have many psychological barriers.
Especially since Qin Huaifeng was suspected to be a deserter, Qin Qiong didn't dare to mention this matter.
Qin Qiong was now hoping that Li Shiming would give her a quick death, and that everyone would be able to talk things out.
Even if Li Shimin vented his anger on him, he would accept it!
……
Qin Qiong's heart was in turmoil, and he replied as if he was walking on thin ice. On the other side, Li Shimin was indeed filled with joy.
It was really only half a year!
Qin Huaifeng must be a genius at training soldiers!
In half a year, he had trained an elite Black Knight who could fight against a hundred!
It was simply inconceivable!
Thinking of this, Li Shimin asked again," Uncle Bao, does your Jiahuifeng know how to train soldiers?”
Qin Qiong was stunned. Why did His Majesty suddenly ask this?
"I don't think so! I've never heard him mention it…"
Qin Qiong shook his head." Moreover, he's only a grain officer in Lianyun Castle. How would he know how to train soldiers?”
"Hehe…Uncle Bao, it seems like you don't know much about Huai Feng!”Li Shi Min laughed, his tone somewhat smug.
Sure enough, Qin Shubao was still in the dark!
I know Qin Huaifeng's secret first, I feel good!
" I don't understand what Your Majesty means…" Qin Qiong had a dumbfounded expression.
"If I tell you that Qin Huaifeng not only knows how to train soldiers, but has also already incorporated a volunteer army of more than a thousand people in Lianyun Castle, what would you think?”Li Shi Min said seriously.
" Hiss…" Cheng Yaojin gasped.
Forming a private army was tantamount to treason!
This was a great crime that could lead to the extermination of the entire clan!
Qin Huaifeng actually did this?
Qin Qiong was dumbfounded on the spot." Your Majesty, this, is there some misunderstanding…Huaifeng, although he was messing around, but, but he wouldn't dare to commit such a huge crime…"
"Oh, blame me for not explaining in detail."
Li Shi Min shook his head and reorganized his words.
"Qin Huaifeng isn't raising private soldiers. Instead, he has gathered the displaced citizens of the north and established a militia in Lianyun Castle!
The Turkic army of two hundred thousand stood between the Great Tang and Lianyun Fort, and the latter had almost become an independent land!
Qin Huaifeng had saved the people who had been looted by the Turks and formed a self-rescue army to defend Lianyun Castle. This was a good thing!
Zhen doesn't feel guilty!"
Li Shi Min was a little confused. Where did those 100 mysterious Black Knights come from? Could they be private soldiers?!
That's not right. The cost of maintaining an elite cavalry unit of a hundred people was not small. How did Qin Huaifeng do it?
There must be something going on here…
This was probably the reason why Qin Huaifeng had intentionally concealed his identity, right?
Li Shi Min thought for a moment and quickly ignored this point.
It was just a private army of a hundred men. The Wing Duke's Public House was originally qualified to support the family, so this was nothing.
Moreover, Qin Huaifeng's Black Knights had killed ten thousand Turkic soldiers at Lianyun Castle and had made a great contribution at the Battle of White Stone Beach. It was enough to disregard all minor offenses.
……
"What is it? Qin Huaifeng had established a self-rescue army in Lianyun Castle? Didn't he become a deserter?"
Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened. He now knew why Li Shiming was so excited.
For Qin Huaifeng this brat to be able to accomplish such a great feat, it was also an extraordinary feat!
But what Cheng Yaojin didn't know was that Li Shiming had hidden the fact that Qin Huaifeng was related to the mysterious Black Knights from him, and even from Qin Qiong.
……
"Huaifeng, did he do such a big thing…I didn't know…"
Qin Qiong's emotions were extremely complicated, and he almost burst into tears on the spot.
Just now, Qin Qiong was still worried that Li Shiming was blaming Qin Huaifeng for being a deserter and felt ashamed for his son…
Now, Qin Qiong knew that her son did not become a deserter. It was because she did not understand her son well and felt ashamed!
Uncle Bao, we've all misunderstood Huaifeng…"
Li Shi Min patted Qin Qiong's shoulder once again and said in a leisurely tone," He is probably more capable than everyone here, yes, including me…"
What Li Shi Min didn't know was that his heartfelt sigh almost scared Qin Qiong to the point of peeing his pants.
Who dared to say that he was more capable than the Emperor?!
This was another murder charge!
