The sky had just lit up, and the servants of the Prince Consort's Mansion had already begun to move around.The masters went to court early, and the servants naturally had to prepare earlier.

And the two protagonists just woke up in bed.For some reason, the two of them woke up and remembered the agreement made last night. Those words... turned out to be a little shy, as if...something was different, and now they were regarded as trainee couples.

Xiao Shu'an was better than Lin Xiu, got up first and dressed himself, and brought Lin Xiu's clothes.

"In the future, I'll help you wear it."

"Yeah." Lin Xiu bowed her head in response, feeling sweet in her heart, but she was too embarrassed to say anything more.Xiao Shu'an is his girlfriend now, thinking about it makes her feel sweet.

"Let Xiao Jiu remove this bed today. It takes up space." Xiao Shu'an has been dissatisfied with this bed for a long time, and now that he has an identity, the first thing to do is to remove this bed.

"Okay." Lin Xiu obeyed like a little daughter-in-law, and obediently asked Xiao Shuan to dress herself.The two of them washed together again, looked at each other from time to time, and moved away with some embarrassment.This kind of sweetness overflowing from time to time in the heart is simply not too beautiful.

At the breakfast table, Lin Xiu brought food to Xiao Shuan from time to time: "Eat more, try this."

Xiao Shu Ping An accepted everything with a smile, and she would eat whatever Lin Xiu gave her, without being picky at all.While eating, she looked at Lin Xiu sweetly, making Lin Xiu's face turn red, and she said uncomfortably, "Where are you eating, what do you always watch me do?"

"You look good." Xiao Shu'an said naturally.

"You...you're pretty too." Lin Xiu was not as relaxed as Xiao Shu'an during the day, so she would go wild when the two of them were together in private. Whenever outsiders were around, she always couldn't let go of her face, and she was ashamed to say those intimate words .

Lan'er and Xiao Jiu looked at the two in amazement, feeling very strange.I didn't see the two of them eating like this before, but today the son-in-law frequently picks up vegetables for the princess, if you do it once, the princess will smile sweetly once, as if the son-in-law picks up flowers, not vegetables.It's just a meal, why are the two of them flirting with sweetness.

Xiao Jiu has a different opinion. She knows that Lin Xiu is a woman, so she never thought about love.

At the gate of the son-in-law's mansion, Uncle Xiao was waiting for Lin Xiu to get into the carriage in his carriage.And Lin Xiu... held hands with Xiao Shuan, and did not let go when they got to the carriage.

"Be careful on the road, and go home early when you get off. I'll be back soon after I finish my business today." Xiao Shu'an carefully helped Lin Xiu tidy up the collar that was not messy at all.

"Yeah. I will." Today Lin Xiu was extraordinarily well-behaved. After thinking about it, she pulled Xiao Shuan aside where others could not hear their words.Sitting in front of the carriage, Uncle Xiao sighed deeply, and thought, "It's so boring, can we still set off?"

The two protagonists didn't care about other people's psychological activities. Lin Xiu led Xiao Shu'an and said seriously: "Now we are a couple. Although we are trying, we are going for a good ending. Some things are different. I have to tell you."

"Well, tell me." Xiao Shu'an was very modest.

"From now on, you can't get too close to other men or women. You are a married woman! If you get too close to others, I will be jealous and feel unhappy. Do you know that?"

Xiao Shu'an suddenly remembered that the last time she saw Lin Xiu talking and laughing with her cousin, she felt a little unhappy. So it was because of jealousy?

"Is it impossible to talk and laugh with others, keep a distance, and be polite?"

"Yes!" Lin Xiu didn't expect Xiao Shu'an to be so enlightened, and was pleasantly surprised.

"Then you should pay more attention. Although you are a man, you are a woman under the skin. When you are with men on weekdays, you should keep a distance. Whether it is Ah Zhong or cousin, you can't talk to them. Crossing the line." Xiao Shu'an suddenly thought of many things that she cared about but couldn't find the reason.

"You...don't like me getting close to men?" Lin Xiu asked tentatively.

"Of course, I'll be jealous too. Especially, Ah Zhong always wants to hug you, and you still smile so brightly when my cousin talks to you. I'm jealous." Xiao Shu'an was very honest about her feelings.

Lin Xiu was not only not angry, but also smiling and in a good mood. "Okay, I get it. I will definitely pay attention, so I won't make you jealous. I'm leaving! See you later!"

Lin Xiu climbed into the carriage, but the sweetness in her heart could not go away, and the carriage went a long way.She even laughed out loud from time to time, Xiao Shu'an would be jealous!And I was jealous so early!This shows that she has a role to play!Hahaha, it seems that the princess has fallen in love with herself with all her heart, just around the corner, she has learned how to be jealous, is it still far away to become a beast?

--

Today, the court will discuss the matter of popularizing schools.The reaction of the ministers was very fierce. If they hadn't woken up to the previous two reforms and the expropriation of female soldiers, they had already woken up now.His Majesty just wanted to boil the frogs in warm water and deprive the nobles of all their advantages bit by bit.

Before, they still had fantasies, thinking that it would be over with one step of patience, just wait and see what happens.But now I can't watch it anymore!Your Majesty is trying to force them to death. First, he has opened up the common people's promotion channel, and now he wants to use resources.If the aristocrats of the aristocratic family do not have the innate economic resources and educational resources, then what is the difference between them and the common people?

Perhaps relying on the official position of their ancestors, they can still prosper for two generations, but it is foreseeable that in the near future, all the people in the court will be rookies and politicians who came up from the common people.Then it was too late for them to resist.So in today's matter, they must not regress, and if they regress, there will be no way out!

Unprecedented unity among the ministers. 90.00% of the people disagreed with this move. Lin Xiu herself was fine. She already knew that it would be difficult to implement it, and it was normal to have many obstacles.Xiao Jingong, on the other hand, was so angry that he threw the memorial all over the floor, almost flipping the table. He was angry with these ministers for their selfishness and not thinking about the future of the country at all.But the ministers would rather kneel down and listen to the punishment than regress.

Things froze like this, Xiao Jingong sneered, and didn't want to say anything more, leaving only Lin Xiu to discuss something.

Lin Xiu's heart is really bitter. She has to work overtime on the first day of dating. This is not a good start!

In the Palace of Lizheng, Xiao Jingong came in angrily.Apparently, Lin Xiu shrank her head and didn't dare to speak because she hadn't gotten rid of the previous anger.The emperor was angry, it was terrible.

"Ai Qing, if I say that I want to fight, will you also object?" Xiao Jingong sat down and said seriously.

Lin Xiu suddenly became serious. Fighting a war is not something that can be played lightly.Your Majesty wants to fight at this time...

"What is the purpose of your Majesty's war?" Lin Xiu didn't know whether her guess was right, and she dared not blindly confirm Xiao Jingong's intentions.

"The national teacher is so smart, you have seen what happened in the previous court, how can you not know why?" Xiao Jingong was in a bad mood, and his words were a little rushed today.

"Your Majesty is afraid that someone will rebel against you?"

Let the nobles give up their interests, they will inevitably resist.Everyone could bear it before, but in today's situation, they don't want to bear it anymore. No matter how Xiao Jingong loses his temper, they will not back down.The blatant demonstration, they were warning Xiao Jingong that this week country was not only Xiao Jingong's Zhou country, but also their Zhou country.

This Zhou Guo, Xiao Jingong is not the only one who has the final say.If you push it any further, Xiao Jingong will just make himself ugly.However, the implementation of the reform has reached this stage, and it is impossible for Xiao Jingong to stop. The most critical step in the reform is the reform of the official system.The common people must be promoted to become officials in order to break the existing class.If the class continues to be consolidated in this way, sooner or later he, the emperor, will be emptied, and at that time, he will be nothing more than a mascot.Those aristocratic groups are the real power holders.

How could Xiao Jingong be willing to go that far, so he wanted to fight.Fighting is a waste of time and money, but it also has its advantages.Foreign wars weaken internal wars.If everyone is tied to one boat, and this boat is at war, everyone naturally focuses on foreign wars, and has no time to take care of other things.Xiao Jingong wanted to reform while fighting, so that by the time the nobles could free up their hands to resist, it would be too late!

Another advantage of the time and place is that Zhou Guo has implemented two reforms.One of them is beneficial to the army.Those who have made military achievements can be promoted and added titles. Although this law has been implemented, it has not been practiced well.How can soldiers make meritorious service without fighting.Xiao Jingong urgently needs a few wars now to promote a group of ordinary people and give them promotions and titles.There will be a big reshuffle in the military camp, so that when the time comes, his supporters will also have some capital to help him.

Although the common people now support the reform and support Xiao Jingong, they have too few resources and too weak power to compete with the nobles.But if there are a few wars and a group of ordinary people are promoted, it will be different.

If you work hard and spend some money to achieve this goal, you will actually earn money.However, if the war is not fought well, the country may be subjugated.

"Who is your Majesty going to fight with, and what excuses?" Lin Xiu wanted to hear Xiao Jingong's thoughts.

"Currently, Zheng Chu is an ally, so it's not easy to do anything. Wu and Manrong are strong now, and they have no intention of attacking our country of Zhou in a short time. But Zhao, after the last battle in Dongcheng, the elite army is said to have suffered heavy casualties. .Although we currently have a prince in Zhou as a hostage, I heard that Zhao Cong's health is getting worse and worse. If Zhao Cong returns to the west and Zhao Duan is not in Zhao State, then there is a high probability that the second prince Zhao Rui will succeed. I hope that Zhao Duan will die soon, lest those prince factions always want to overthrow him.

Since we have to fight sooner or later, it has been more than half a year since the reform of our country's arms.It's better to go out and try your strength, to see if there are any powerful generals who are still buried, and to give them a chance to make contributions. "Xiao Jingong spoke in great detail. It seems that he was not impulsive, but had been planning in his heart for a long time. It was just that he was irritated today and planned to implement it in advance.

"What Your Majesty said is not impossible. I remember that Shunshui and Lingzhou, two places at the junction of Zhao State and Zhou State, used to belong to Zhou State. They were snatched by Zhao State decades ago, and now they have been taken by Zhao State. Jurisdiction. These two places are located at the junction of the Manrong, Zhao, and Zhou kingdoms, and the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. They are very important strategic positions.

If your Majesty wants to fight, it is better to use these two places as an excuse to ask Zhao Guo for land, and if he does not give it, he will go to war.Zhao Guoyi is currently seriously injured, and General Qian, who is the best at fighting, has been demoted. If he wants to fight now, he can only let the people below come to the top.This is an opportunity for Zhou Guo.

Two, Zhao Cong is not dead yet, so if Zhao Duan is in our hands, he will always have worries.If Zhou Guo is defeated and Zhou Guo suffers serious casualties, he is afraid that we will kill Zhao Duan directly to vent our anger.It would be even better if they lost. In short, as long as Zhao Cong makes the generals they lead have concerns, then this battle will indeed be difficult to fight.No matter how you look at it, it is more beneficial to us.

If His Majesty has made up his mind, I feel that I can fight. "Lin Xiu still affirmed Xiao Jingong's point of view. It is not good to fight a war, but if it is profitable, it must be fought. Besides, some wars are unavoidable. It is not a good time to attack Zhao at this time.

"I'm just afraid that if the other countries get in the way, it's like Zhao Guo attacked Zhou and Zheng Chu before." The five countries stand side by side, and every move is not that simple. If someone gets in the way, the situation will be reversed instantly.

"Then we can only make a quick decision without leaking the news. None of the four countries thought that we would fight Zhao Guo. When the fight broke out, it would be too late for them to react. Moreover, they may not intervene. You know, everyone wants to weaken Zhao Guo. According to what I saw, Wu and Chu are more likely to watch the battle. Zheng Guo is too far away to intervene in the battlefield here. As for the Man Rong, He Lianding has no ambition to unify the five countries. He is not interested in other things, such as looting and looting. If that He Liantao succeeds to the throne, he has to guard against it."

"So according to what the national teacher saw, the battle was won?"

"Fight well. It's just that His Majesty needs to be mentally prepared."

"what?"

"This battle is likely to come back without success. No matter whether you win or lose, you may not get any city. If you lose, it goes without saying. If you win, I am afraid that you will not be able to govern. The other four countries will not be reconciled. At that time, in order to seek stable development, I am afraid that the soldiers should be withdrawn.

The purpose of this battle is only one: to promote a group of common people and soldiers.Two: Distract the attention of the rich and powerful, and seize the time to implement reforms.Three: Weaken Zhao's military strength, and try to see if the soldiers we train have improved.

Of course, things are not so absolute.If the situation allows, it is best to occupy these two places, but it depends on the situation.Your Majesty must prepare for the worst, so as not to be unable to let go and miss the overall situation. "

Lin Xiu's words made Xiao Jingong's idea more realistic and feasible.After thinking about it, even though he was reluctant, Xiao Jingong had to admit that what Lin Xiu said made sense.

"I accept this ending, it's just this battle, I'm only allowed to win, not to lose. I want to fight in person. What do you think?" Xiao Jingong put all his chips on this battle. If he wins this battle, everything will change. more smoothly.If you lose, the situation will be even worse.But as the king of a country, you can't hesitate and be decisive, and you have to show your courage at critical moments.If he compromises with the rich and powerful now, all the previous efforts will be in vain, it will be like fetching water from a bamboo basket, and it will be in vain. He is not reconciled!

"Your Majesty, absolutely not!" Lin Xiu said anxiously: "Your Majesty cannot go on a personal expedition. The battlefield is unpredictable, but your Majesty has unexpected events, what should Zhou do? Fighting wars is the job of the soldiers, and it is His Majesty's job to formulate a strategy for governing the country. Your Majesty, you are the greatest help to the soldiers if you are in the capital. If you are not in the capital, what should the soldiers in the front do if there is any change here? At this critical moment, you must be in the capital and stabilize the rear, so that the soldiers will be able to Stablize."

Xiao Jingong was in a dilemma, "The national teacher is right, but I am really worried about not being able to supervise the battle at the front line. This battle is the key to victory or defeat."

Lin Xiu said solemnly: "Your Majesty, if you don't worry, I can go to the front to supervise the battle. I have also read a lot of military tactics, and I know a little about fighting, and I can match General Chen's experience. I think it is not difficult to win this battle. Relatively sure."

"The national teacher also understands the art of war?" Xiao Jingong didn't know this before, but Lin Xiu's words surprised him.When Lin Xiu said he understood, he really understood. That's how he trusted Lin Xiu.

"I understand a little bit. A few days ago, I organized the art of war I had read into a book and passed it to the soldiers in the barracks. It can be regarded as sharing some knowledge."

Xiao Jingong thought for a long time and felt that it was indeed feasible.Although Lin Xiu doesn't know martial arts, she was not sent to fight, but to be a military advisor.Lin Xiu did not solve the siege of Mount Ai before very flexibly. I believe that with Lin Xiu around, no matter what the situation is, Zhou Guo will not be too passive.After all, the national teacher has many methods.

"Since the national teacher has spoken, I agree. This time, let the national teacher be the military advisor, sit in the rear, and command the soldiers to fight. I believe the national teacher will triumph!"

"Sir, you must do your best!"

--

In the women's barracks, Rufeng was very happy today, because Xiao Shu'an brought her the "Sun Tzu's Art of War" by the national teacher today as promised!She couldn't put it down, and as soon as she got it, she couldn't put down the book and read it.Fortunately, Xiao Shu'an was also in a particularly good mood today, so he let her read and didn't hold her to train.

Xiao Shu'an gave the book to the commander of the thousand and the commander of the centurion, each with a copy.And tell all female soldiers, whoever is interested, can pass it on to each other.When studying literacy in the evening, when you are tired from learning, you can send someone up to read to everyone and talk about this book.Everyone was very excited. Since General Heroine recommended it so much, it must be a good book.

Xie Chen laughed secretly by himself, and she went to Rufeng and asked, "Didn't you say that the national teacher gave you a manuscript, why did the general bring it back for you, it was printed."

Rufeng read the book as soon as she got it, but she didn't notice it. As soon as Xie Chen said it, she realized: "Hey? That's right, why didn't the general take back the manuscript. Oh, forget it, maybe the general is afraid that I will get it If you lose it, put it away yourself. It’s all the same, just look at it.”

Xie Chen smiled, this person is really dull.Fortunately, Rufeng is the general's own person, otherwise, Rufeng would have a good life.

Xiao Shuan was in a good mood today, and finished distributing books to the female soldiers.He took people with hundreds of books to find Chen Yunjian to deliver them.

"Why is General Heroine coming to my place today?" Seeing Xiao Shu'an coming, Chen Yunjian teased her.Recently, Xiao Shu'an trained female soldiers. I heard that they are very busy, and the female soldiers are also very hardworking. They all regard the male soldiers as opponents in their hearts, and really want to compete.It puts a little pressure on the male soldiers. Recently, they have been training a lot more seriously. I'm afraid they will be inferior to the female soldiers.Today Xiao Shu'an came in person, wouldn't he come to fight?

"I heard that the male soldiers have been training hard recently. I will send you some books. I want you to learn cultural knowledge, not just practice brute force." Xiao Shu'an stood a few meters away from Chen Yunjian, and motioned for his subordinates to All the books are moved here.

"Send a book?" Chen Yunjian stretched out his hand and took out a book. No one had sent him a book to the barracks before. "Sun Tzu's Art of War?" The four large characters on the book are obviously a book on the art of war.He casually opened it and looked, it was the first time he had heard of Sun Tzu's Art of War.There is no military book in the country this week.

After turning a few pages, Chen Yunjian suddenly became serious.Flipping faster and faster, his expression became more and more serious.Xiao Shuan saw it and interrupted him silently.She felt a sense of pride spontaneously in her heart. The book written by her girlfriend was amazing. Even a general like Chen Yunjian was overwhelmed by the sight of it.Talented people are so cute, Xiao Shu'an unconsciously let out a smug smile, waiting for Chen Yunjian to praise him.

"Where did this book come from? Who is the grandson?" Chen Yunjian was shocked, and stepped forward excitedly, while Xiao Shuan took a step back calmly.The art of war mentioned in this book is very avant-garde and sharp, and it is a theory that he has never read before. After only a rough look, he concluded that this is a good book, and it is a masterpiece!It's just that grandson, why has he never heard of it.

"Yeah!" Xiao Shu'an put his hands behind his back, cleared his throat pretending not to care, and said proudly, "This book was written by Xiu'er."

"Xiu'er..." Chen Yunjian didn't remember who Xiu'er was for a moment, "National teacher?"

"Yeah." Xiao Shu'an was quite satisfied with Chen Yunjian's reaction, "As for the grandson, he is probably Xiu'er's teacher. She said that this is what she saw and learned. She compiled it into a book and printed many copies. There are many in the army. Anyone who can read and is interested can come and get a copy and pass it around to have a look. Since you are in the army, how can you not learn the art of war.”

"The national teacher still knows the art of war?" Chen Yunjian admired Lin Xiuzhen even more. He thought that the national teacher was already very good at governing the country, but he didn't expect to learn the art of war. Sure enough, outstanding people are omnipotent?As for the grandson, I have never heard of it. I think he should be a hermit.

Chen Yunjian took a few steps forward, approached and asked: "Does the national teacher agree to print so many circulations?" Chen Yunjian thought that many masters were stingy with what they had learned in their lives, and would not pass it on to others easily.Books like this are usually only passed on to their apprentices, students, or people they trust very much.It is really rare to show it so generously and pass it on.

Xiao Shuan took two steps back calmly, keeping a distance from Chen Yunjian.Although Chen Yunjian was a little puzzled, she didn't continue to approach.

"Xiu'er requested this on her own initiative. The female soldiers have already started studying, and for the sake of fairness, they are also sent to you here. Don't let the female soldiers rob you of all opportunities to make meritorious deeds in the future, saying that we are bullying people." Lin Xiu got along a lot, and Xiao Shu'an's ability to fight people has also improved a lot.

Chen Yunjian smiled: "Then I would like to thank the national teacher and the female general. Our male soldiers will also learn the art of war hard, and we will never be compared by female soldiers."

"Well, let's see if we can compare. Then you should be busy. I'm leaving." Xiao Shu'an finished his work, thinking that it was time for Lin Xiu to come home, so naturally he didn't want to talk to Chen Yunjian any more, so he took two steps , Thinking of something again, backed up and said: "There is something I have to explain to you."

"What's the matter?" Seeing Xiao Shu'an's serious expression, Chen Yunjian also became serious, and stopped joking.

"I'm a married woman now! When you talk to me in the future, don't get too close and keep a distance of one meter. Don't mention your thoughts about me before, Xiu'er will be unhappy."

"I……"

"Also, it's the same when you talk to Xiu'er in the future, don't get too close, keep a distance of one meter. He is also a married man, if you get too close, I won't be happy."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Shu'an walked away gracefully.Only Chen Yunjian was left unable to say a word...

"What and what is this! I'm a gentleman, okay? I don't have those thoughts when I'm here!" Chen Yunjian was furious!This is the reason why I retreated as soon as I got close to Xiao Shu'an today?What did she think of herself?Married people are not cute!

Chen Yunjian shouted in the distance, but Xiao Shuan couldn't hear him.She didn't care about Chen Yunjian's reaction, as long as she said what she said.She was in a hurry to go home to meet her girlfriend!
