Just as Li Rui was arranging his subordinates in the residence, in the Wing Public House a few streets away.
Qin Huaiyu, the son of Qin Qiong, was also a rising star of the Great Tang.
Qin Qiong had brought him back from the Martial Arts Practice Field early in the morning. At this moment, he said in confusion,"Father, what do you mean? Why don't you let me train with my brothers?”
Qin Qiong clasped his hands behind his back and said resentfully,"Practice, practice, practice. Even if you do it for the rest of your life, you still won't be able to make a name for yourself without connections!”
Right now, the Great Tang was still ruled by the old generals, and it was very difficult for newcomers to rise.
Since he had no chance, he could only choose a wise master.
"Father, are you saying that you want me to seek refuge with the Crown Prince?" Qin Huaiyu asked excitedly.”
Two days ago, during the war with the Turks, Qin Huaiyu had regretted not joining the Crown Prince earlier.
Otherwise, he could go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make a contribution.
Unexpectedly, Qin Qiong shook his head and said,"Not the Crown Prince, but Ning Wang!"”
"What?" Qin Huaiyu couldn't believe what he had just heard. He confirmed once again,""Father, are you talking about the Ning Prince who goes to the Land of the Wind and Moon to listen to music all day?”
"That's right!" Qin Qiong nodded.
Seeing that Qin Huaiyu was about to say something, he could not help but glare and urge,"You're so wishy-washy. It's not certain whether His Highness Ning Wang will accept you or not. Hurry up and follow me!”
Qin Huaiyu reluctantly followed his father to the Ning Imperial Residence.
…………
On the other side, a similar scene was happening in the Duke Wu Residence.
Yuchi Jingde was also preparing to bring Yuchi Baolin to Prince Ning's residence.
"Father, how can we go to the Ning Prince's residence? The Crown Prince is the Crown Prince.”
Yuchi Baolin, who was a head taller than Yuchi Jingde, was very puzzled.
His dark skin, his head, and the eighteen feet Snake Spear in his hand added to his aura.
Yuchi Jingde slapped him. Fortunately, Yuchi Baolin dodged it agilely." You brat, you still dare to dodge? So what if the Crown Prince is the Crown Prince? His performance on the battlefield is inferior to Prince Ning's."”
"Even I couldn't bear it on the north bank of Weishui River, not to mention common soldiers. Even the crown prince who lived like a prince left the battlefield early.”
"However, Prince Ning didn't leave. Instead, he acted as if nothing had happened and was unusually relaxed. With such courage, Prince Ning is definitely hiding his strength and biding his time. Once he encounters an opportunity, he will definitely amaze the world!”
"If you can follow His Highness Prince Ning, then be happy.”
…………
Duke Lu Manor was the same. Cheng Yaojin brought his two sons, Cheng Chumo and Cheng Huailiang, to the same destination as Qin Qiong and the others.
Although Cheng Yaojin looked carefree, he was more observant than anyone else, especially Li Rui's performance on the battlefield.
There were so many corpses and rivers of blood, but it didn't affect him at all.
He even wanted to take a closer look at Jieli Khagan's head. How could he have such an extraordinary temperament?
…………
Prince Ning's residence.
Li Rui suddenly received a report saying that the three Great Dukes had brought their sons over.
"Then you can leave first."
Li Rui dismissed Wei Zhuang, Han Fei, Purple Girl, and the others.
Otherwise, he would have been more open and honest when he met with the High Dukes.
"This subordinate will take his leave!"
Everyone replied in unison, and one figure after another quickly disappeared from the residence.
At this moment, before Qin Qiong could knock on the door, a familiar voice came from afar.
"Old Brother Qin, what a coincidence, you're also here to visit His Highness Ning Wang?”
Yuchi Jingde looked at Qin Huaiyu beside Qin Qiong and also understood Qin Qiong's thoughts.
"Greetings, Uncle Qin!"
"Huaiyu greets Uncle Yuchi!"
The juniors of the two families bowed and said.
Qin Qiong naturally also knew of Yuchi Jingde's plans and said with a smile,""Looks like we're thinking the same thing this time!”
Yuchi Jingde also smiled and said," There's no other way. We have to find a path for the children so that they won't be unable to obtain any achievements after training for their entire lives."”
"Heh, you guys are really mean to abandon me, Old Cheng, to come to the Ning Imperial Residence!”
Cheng Yaojin shouted from afar, as if he was afraid that others would not know.
"Greetings, Uncle Cheng."
Qin Huaiyu and Yuchi Baolin hurriedly bowed.
Cheng Yaojin helped him up and said in a good mood,"These two brats are so polite. Your Uncle Cheng and your father followed His Majesty together, and you two are going to follow His Highness Ning Wang together.”
Yuchi Jingde recalled the days when they fought together and shouted in a rough voice,""That's right, when you sit in our position in the future, His Highness Ning Wang's position will be even higher.”
"Shut up!"
Qin Qiong hurriedly stopped him." Can't you lower your voice when you say such disgraceful words? It's as if you're afraid that others won't know."”
Yuchi Jingde glanced around and snorted coldly." So what if I said it? The Crown Prince is like a woman on the battlefield. It's not like everyone hasn't seen him puking so much that he can't even stand up.”
Seeing that there was no one around, Yuchi Jingde dared to say this.
On the other hand, Li Rui waited for a long time, but no one knocked on the door.
Moreover, these generals were all louder than the last. Even if one listened to their conversation from inside the door, it would feel like they were shouting in one's ear.
However, they also understood the purpose of their visit. It was to let their children work in the Ning residence.
To put it bluntly, they formed cliques openly for personal gain, but they did not do anything sneaky.
After waiting for a long time, seeing that the three meritorious officials outside had no intention of coming in, Li Rui could only take the initiative to open the door.
Creak.
The door opened.
Before Yuchi Jingde could react, he saw Li Rui standing in front of everyone with a smile on his face.
"Greetings, Duke Yi, Duke Wu and Duke Lu.”
"Your Highness, are you preparing to go out?" Cheng Yaojin asked.”
Hearing this, Li Rui looked even more helpless." If I don't open the door, I'm afraid that the uncles will misunderstand that I don't welcome you."”
Since there were no outsiders, Li Rui addressed himself as his nephew.
Everyone only realized it after a while, and Yuchi Jingde was also amused." Your Highness, please don't blame us. Have you forgotten that with our loud voices, you can hear us even in the backyard?"”
They were all generals, so they didn't hesitate. They didn't care who was laughing, but they all laughed.
"Uncles, please come in."
As he spoke, Li Rui extended his hand to invite them into the Imperial Residence.
Cheng Yaojin and the others reacted and did not enter the Prince's mansion.
He pulled the juniors behind him over." Hurry up and greet His Highness Ning Wang!”
"Your humble servant Qin Huaiyu greets Your Highness Ning Wang!”
"Your humble servant Yuchi Baolin greets Your Highness Ning Wang!”
"Cheng Chumo greets Your Highness Ning Wang!”
"Your humble servant Cheng Huai Liang greets Your Highness Ning Wang!”
"Brothers, there's no need to be so polite."
Li Rui smiled and went forward to help them up.
Then, everyone followed him into the mansion.
