Chapter 82. The Book of War

They made an appointment to see each other next time, and Qin Heng left.

He sat in the carriage returning home, brushed the old "Lue", and smelled it closely, and could still smell the faint fragrance of ink. This book is already a bit old, and the corners may have been turned over a lot The reason for this is that it is a bit curly, but after opening it, you can really feel the love of its owner. Those words are clearly visible, and under the tiny words, there are these few lines of comments that are smaller than the front page. , which is self-evident who wrote it.

In fact, Qin Heng was not joking when he said that he wanted to take this book back and read it carefully. Although this book is not very thick, or thinner than expected, there are really many words on it, as if to All the ideas and strategies that can be imagined in my head are all written in this book. Its regular font is very small, the number of printed words is large, and the space is not large, so I want to read the content carefully. The row of little tadpoles made me dizzy, and I couldn't see why.

That's why Qin Heng took the liberty to propose to take the book home.

Strolling all the way, the first thing I did when I got home was to run to my small bedroom to read a book excitedly. I heard that Chu Liuxiang also went out not long after he left. I didn't say anything specific, but the housekeeper listened. He said that he was going to look at the location to find a house. The housekeeper was confused, but fortunately he didn't take it to heart. Instead, Qin Heng who heard a few words, pursed his lips and secretly laughed. He kept silent and quietly After touching and laughing, he turned around and went into the room with a book in his hand.

It was in the afternoon, and the sun was shining warmly, reflecting faintly shaking light and shadows through the twigs of the branches. Qin Heng found a chaise longue, and chose a sunny place, and sat down on the chair. , adjusted his posture a few times, and then lay down on a slant. In the sunlight, Qin Heng didn't need to light the candle lamp anymore, just read the book in it.

The housekeeper passing by saw it, thought it was a lad who was being lazy, and was about to open his mouth to teach him a lesson, but after seeing the man's face after turning over, he was dumbfounded, and finally called the kitchen to make some young master's favorite food, sweet-scented osmanthus cake Ah, cookies or something on the little low table next to him.Because no matter how bright the weather was, it was still winter, so it was not easy to give Qin Heng some cold food, so the cook had to try her best to find some of his favorite food on weekdays, and brought them together.

It’s just that he was destined to live up to his intentions. The young master read the book word by word under the sunlight, until he gradually became fascinated. I have to say that, as a slightly boring military book, The ability to fascinate a layman shows Gu Xichao's talent.

The sun is gradually going west, and after noon, the heat of the sun is not so strong, but Qin Heng turned the pages of the book unconsciously, and when he was shivering from the cold, he came back to his senses and found that the sky had already darkened , Looking up at the sky again, the afternoon passed like this!The book just let him see the last page.

Qin Heng looked back, only to realize that his stomach was rumbling from hunger, and with a glance at the end of his eyes, he saw the pastry left by the cook, which had already been terribly cold. He didn't care whether it was hot or cold, so he grabbed a few in a hurry, chewed them whole, stretched his neck from choking, and ate most of a plate of pastries with no image at all. The Temple of the Five Zang-Organs is considered to have some foundation.

Now Qin Heng couldn't sit still anymore, clutching the "Lue" that he had studied all afternoon, propped up the dauphine chair, and ran towards the study.

Today happened to be taking a rest, so if his father didn't go out to meet friends, he would probably be working in the study.

Sure enough, before Qin Heng ran to the place, Qin Heng, who was far away, saw his father push open the door of the study. It seemed that he had just finished reading a book or was about to go out for a walk. Qin Heng blew him like a wind When he was in front of his father, he heard his father scolding him, "You are a big man, why do you run, you don't know how to be more prudent!"

Qin Heng didn't care about his father's thunder and rain, and besides, he was really busy now, so he slammed into his father's arms. When Qin Siyuan was surprised, he took half a step back, and stretched slightly, pushing The man pushed into the study, and said in a hurry, "Hurry up, daddy, let's go in and talk."

"..." Qin Yuyuan was unprepared for a while, so he was pushed in in such a daze. When the old father stood still, he began to think about other things, "Didn't I say that you are not allowed to enter my study? Get out quickly."

Qin Heng blinked his eyes, and immediately brought a rascal smile to his mouth, one clutching the book, and the other hugging his father's arm, and said disgustingly, "Dad, you are the best, How old is the old calendar, we don't care about that."

Qin Siyuan really wanted to shake off the dog skin plaster, but unfortunately he did not shake it secretly several times. The Shang Shu who wants to save face can't openly speak to his son, so he can only acquiesce.

"Finally, what's the matter?" Qin Siyuan didn't believe that Qin Heng came to him for nothing, just like what he said, it was the old Huang Li who didn't let him enter the study room many years ago, and after that, Master Shangshu was about to grow up when his youngest son At the time, it was not that he had never urged him to study, and he also agreed with Qin Heng to come to his study to read. Unfortunately, at that time, Qin Heng read a lot of books, all of which were strange gossip, agricultural books and stories. The same is a serious book, commonly known as not doing business properly.

He beat and scolded and scolded, there was nothing he could do, and finally resigned to his fate.

So at this moment, Qin Heng, who has a headache when he mentions his study, and who doesn't want to come in even if he pretends to be sick, comes to him alone, and insists on talking in his study, which makes Master Shangshu very surprised. I can't believe it.

Qin Heng smiled slightly, shook the book he had clutched all the way, and said in a mysterious way, "Daddy, guess what this is?"

Qin Siyuan resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and said in a stern voice, "Will you tell me or not? If you don't tell me, I went to eat. I'm still hungry all afternoon."

As soon as Qin Heng heard that his father was still hungry, he didn't want to keep it any longer, so he pulled him to sit down in front of the big desk in the study room, then opened the beginning of the book, pointed to the tiny words on it, and said, "Dad, look carefully. Look, are you familiar with the handwriting on it?"

After listening to his son's words, Qin Siyuan frowned, carefully held the old book on the table, and his eyes fell on the delicate but unrestrained, flamboyant and soft characters on it. They are generally distinctive, he knows and only knows one, that is——

"This is written by Gu Xichao."

Qin Heng spat out the name that had already reached Qin Siyuan's lips.

Qin Heng glanced at his father, full of pride that he didn't know what to say, "You boast a lot, but you don't know that the great talent you speak of has written a book on war, right?"

"Book of war?!" Before Qin Siyuan had time to refute the first half of his younger son's words, he was startled by the last few words, and jumped up as if he had been stabbed in the ass by a needle.

It's not that Qin Yuyuan is sensitive, it's that the book of war is different from the past. Why do soldiers and soldiers throughout the ages know how to fight?How did those weird tactics and pawn strategies come about?Those are all handed down from the ancient books of war!It has been improved from generation to generation!

There is also no shortage of generals who are invincible based on intuition and superb martial arts, but they are a minority, and as long as there are such people, they are all geniuses without exception.

In addition to the book of war, there is also word of mouth, but in the final analysis, the book of war has a greater effect and a wider range of dissemination.

Do you know that "Sun Tzu's Art of War" in the Spring and Autumn Period is a military book known as the "Sacred Book of Military Science", why?Just because it is the earliest book that describes military affairs in detail, it has also influenced the victory of one war after another, and in turn affected the rise and fall of one dynasty after another.

It may be exaggerated to say so, but the important meaning of the two words "Book of War" can be seen.

After confirming that Gu Xichao had no intention of overthrowing the dynasty, Qin Yuyuan concentrated his attention on studying this military book. The handwriting is still immature. It can be speculated that it was written by Gu Xichao a few years ago, maybe he was not yet crowned at that time?While speculating, Qin Siyuan read the book ten lines at a glance.

As a father, he is still a man who can achieve the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Reading is naturally much easier than Qin Heng, a half-baked half-baby. Qin Heng spent an afternoon reading the book. When he came to his father, But half an hour to read through the rough.

However, it's okay not to look at it, after looking at it, Qin Siyuan was no less shocked than others.

He usually praised Gu Xichao because of his kindness and temperament, but Qin Yuyuan never expected that Gu Xichao's knowledge was so good, let alone something as sensitive as art of war, even though Gu Xichao had to find Hualang , but against the background of Man Chaowu, it is not so dazzling, and Qin Siyuan is keenly aware of Gu Xichao's aloofness and arrogance hidden under the gentle surface, but now that he has read through the book, he really feels that although some strategies are still It's immature, but it may not be impossible to modify it.

He is arrogant and aloof, because he does have the confidence and ability!

Seeing that his father was silent for a long time, Qin Heng couldn't help but said, "Father, how about giving this book to the old men in the Ministry of War, so as to add capital to Brother Gu."

Qin Siyuan smiled, "You are close to him."

Qin Heng smiled and stopped talking, and whoever called Xi Chao Xi Chao to his face turned his head and called Gu Ge.

It's a pity that his father rejected him, "Although we all know that this book is good, it's too shocking to write a military book by ourselves. I'm afraid that someone with a heart will be blamed for conspiracy."

Qin Heng said, "It is because Gu Xichao's foundation is too weak that he needs more capital to stand in the court. I think this book of war is just right as a stepping stone!"

In the end, neither of the two could convince the other.

However, before Qin Heng boarded Gu's mansion again with a depressed mood, a bad news came:

Gu Xichao hid his background and sneaked into the court, the emperor was furious, Tanhua was expelled, Gu's Xichao status was restored, and he was never allowed to set foot in the capital again.
