ps: New book is on the shelves, please order first, please be pink

"Master Xiao..." After a slight hesitation, Zhen Shiniang opened the door and walked in. She exclaimed, "It's so warm here."

The small space is as warm as spring.

Xiao Yu smiled and pointed to the eight vermilion columns of the pavilion, "These pillars are all fire dragons." He pointed to the ground, "Under the pavilion is a closed dark groove connected to the pillars. In winter, it is filled with scraps of firewood and lit to burn slowly.

It’s more useful than a stove..." Looking at the plaque on the pavilion, "My mother likes this place the most, and she personally gave it to me."

"No wonder when I came up, I saw that the snow around the pavilion had melted..." Zhen Shiniang stretched out her hand to touch the pillars and it was indeed warm. She couldn't help but sigh to herself, "Rich people are extravagant, but just looking at plum blossoms is like this."

Here comes a warm pavilion." However, Zhen Shiniang looked outside the pavilion again, "Where are the plum blossoms?" She didn't see a single plum blossom on the way up.

"Miss Jian, have tea." Seeing Zhen Shiniang, Xiao Yu seemed to be in a good mood. He poured a cup of tea for her and invited her to sit down.

Zhen Shiniang sat down on the stone bench on the side and couldn't help but smile and said, "This stone bench is actually warm." She was hesitant to sit down before.

"They are all hollow warm walls." Xiao Yu smiled and nodded.

After taking a sip of tea, Zhen Shiniang looked up and was shocked. There were more than thirty plum blossoms standing proudly and sparsely on the half slope behind, just like a small plum forest. In the depth of winter, there were already occasional plum blossoms.

The plum blossoms were blooming, red as delicate and as white as snow. Zhen Shiniang could even smell waves of faint fragrance coming to her nostrils, "...how could it be? This pavilion is closed." She turned around in surprise.

On the corner of the pavilion beside her, there was a glistening white plum blossom stuck in a blue-and-white porcelain vase, which blended with the white snow outside the pavilion. Unless she smelled the fragrance, she really didn't notice it. She couldn't help but think of a poem, "I know it's not snow from a distance."

, only the faint fragrance comes."

Xiao Yu glanced at her in shock, "...Miss Jian likes plum blossoms very much?"

Zhen Shiniang simply stood up and walked slowly to the glass, "...I haven't seen plum blossoms for a long time." The last time I enjoyed plum blossoms in my memory was when I went to Xiangshan Park with my colleagues. There was a plum ditch there with a piece of wintersweet, almost

You can smell the fragrant fragrance from ten meters away.

Thinking that she would never be able to go back in this life, Zhen Shiniang's expression turned dark, and her good mood disappeared.

"Miss Jian comes from a scholarly family?" Xiao Yu came up behind her quietly and followed her gaze, "How come you know medical skills?" If they were from a medical family, they would never be so elegant and demure.

I can never recite poetry.

"Is it because the family is in decline?" Xiao Yu secretly guessed looking at her slightly frowning brows.

"A long-term illness makes a doctor." Zhen Shiniang avoided the important and took the easy. "When I was sick, I liked to read some medical books. Occasionally, I got a strange book, which recorded many difficult and complicated diseases."

"Miss Jian likes to read miscellaneous books very much?" Xiao Yu was secretly surprised. She is really unique.

Many miscellaneous books are classified as pornographic, especially for women. These books are all forbidden to read. At most, only the Four Books for Women such as "Nv Jie" and "The Analects of Confucius" are taught.

Of course I like it, but it's a pity I don't have it.

In ancient times, there was no TV or Internet. After a busy day, she would pass the long nights by relying on books. Unfortunately, she had no money. Buying a few Chinese medicine books from a second-hand bookstore was already a luxury. Thinking of the medical books on her pillow, she had torn them up.

She even memorized the diagram of human body veins that gave her a headache in her previous life. Zhen Shiniang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I like it." She turned to look at Xiao Yu, "Thank you, Mr. Zhongtang, for the regional history of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I..." her voice hesitated.

After a moment, "Can I borrow it back to read?"

"Speaking of the regional chronicle of the Zhou Dynasty, Miss Jian got a sneak peek." Xiao Yu chuckled, "That book is the first draft just compiled by the Hanlin Academy, or an expert version. I haven't even read it in my lifetime, um..." He After thinking about it, he said, "If you like Miss Jian, please wait a few more days. Once the verification is completed and the draft is finalized, I will ask Comprador Gu to send it to you."

"Thank you, Lord Zhongtang." Zhen Shiniang nodded in thanks, and said suddenly, "No wonder General Shen just conquered South Vietnam, and the victory was only a few months away, and it was written in this book." Before, she thought that ancient information transmission was really possible. It was so fast, just like the news network in the previous life. After a while, people all over the country knew the contents of the meeting.

"After pacifying the Japanese pirates, subjugating the Southern Yi, and conquering the Southern Vietnam, in just a few years, the territory of our Great Zhou Dynasty has nearly doubled..." Xiao Yu smiled and nodded, "This General Shen is indeed a military wizard who appears only once in a century. This re-mapping of the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the compilation of the regional chronicles of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the praise of General Shen's great achievements were all ordered and supervised by Wan Zai himself."

Otherwise, how could it be compiled so quickly?

"...It's just a matter of knowing how to make good use of people." Zhen Shiniang shook her head disdainfully.

Although we have won a few battles, how come it only happened once in a century?

To say that she was a miracle doctor who only appeared once in a century and could master modern medical skills that no one in ancient times had seen before.

Zhen Shiniang felt very disgusted that Shen Zhongqing was praised as a god in the book, "There is no shortage of wise kings in the history of the Zhou Dynasty, emperors who can expand the territory. Today's Long Live can be said to be the first person besides the Holy Ancestor Emperor. If you ask me, this great achievement The first thing that belongs to Long Live is..."

The voice suddenly paused, why was there not a word mentioned in the book?!

"When the book was delivered, I only glanced at it and felt something was wrong, but I couldn't remember it. Later, when things got busy, I put it away..." After all, the Hanlin Academy sent the sample manuscript just as a courtesy, and it was not really for him. After checking the manuscript, Xiao Yu looked stern after hearing this, and then nodded, "Miss Jian is right, long live this unparalleled contribution..." He shook his head again, "Such an exaggeration of General Shen's contribution. , it seems that he is thoughtful."

As he spoke, a thin layer of sweat broke out on Xiao Yu's forehead.

She didn't expect Xiao Yu to say these words. Zhen Shiniang secretly scolded herself for talking too much. She had nothing to do with the affairs of the temple. It seemed like she was deliberately mentioning something like this, as if she was worried about Shen Zhongqing. Her mind was spinning. Just as he was thinking about how to divert his words, he heard Xiao Yu sigh sincerely, "To put it into detail, without the current Long Live, General Shen and I would not be where we are today."

how come?

If she remembered correctly, Shen Zhongqing and Xiao Yu were both the number one scholar appointed by the late emperor, and she was confused. Zhen Shiniang did not ask the question, and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the pavilion indifferently.

"Miss Jian, sit down." Xiao Yu turned around and sat back on the stone bench. He touched the tea, which was still warm, and filled up the tea for the two of them. "Seven years ago, when Long live was still a prince, he walked among the princes incognito on the eve of the scientific examination. Just when General Shen and I were having a long talk in the tavern..." Xiao Yu shook his head with a smile, "At that time, he was young and energetic and dared to say anything. The prince asked a question, there is the exclusive power of the Zhenguo Duke, but there are Japanese pirates intrusion, and the surrounding countries How should the Holy One deal with himself today, as the tigers are eying him, and there are plans for internal and external troubles?"

Isn't this easy to do?

Zhen Shiniang frowned seriously.

"...In order to fight foreign affairs, we must first make peace at home!" Remembering that these words changed the fate of him and Shen Zhongqing, Xiao Yu's face turned slightly red. "I didn't know that the prince was across from me, so I gave him a warning about the current situation. Cut off the power of the Zhenguo Duke, and then unite with Yan Qi to drive a wedge between Yi Yue and divide and eat..." Immersed in the memory of the past, Xiao Yu's eyes were warm. "The prince asked, Yan Qi in the north and Yi Yue in the south have long been against each other. The Great Zhou Dynasty is watching with eager eyes. It is only because of the brave and proficient Zhen Guogong that he dares not to care. If he reduces his military power, wouldn't he be seeking death? I was speechless after one sentence..." Suddenly, I recalled the story of that year. Years later, Xiao Yu sincerely lamented, "At that time, when the Zhou Dynasty looked at it, in terms of leading troops to fight and arranging troops, no one could surpass the Duke of Zhen, and only he could suppress the covetousness of neighboring countries. Even the great Zhou Dynasty Open the door to martial arts. How easy is it to find a second Duke of Zhen who is brave and good at fighting?"

"...What happened next?" In my impression, Xiao Yu has always been calm and confident. This is the first time that Zhen Shiniang couldn't help but wonder when she heard that he was silenced by someone.

"The prince turned around and asked General Shen, you are a martial arts examiner. Can you tell me how to deal with the invasion of Yiyue? General Shen put the cups and dishes on the table as if they were soldiers. Who is the general who is targeting Nanyi and what are he good at? , He talked endlessly about how to deploy troops and form formations in case of an attack..." Xiao Yu sighed repeatedly, "The prince was fascinated by what he heard. It was only then that I discovered that General Shen was a rare military talent, especially for He will never forget the topography after visiting it once, and he will also propose the most suitable tactics according to local conditions..."

"...Is that why the prince appointed him to be the top scholar in martial arts?" He wanted to train him to replace Duke Zhen Guo.

Remembering that Lord Zhen Guo died for rebellion six years ago, right after Shen Zhongqing won the top prize, Zhen Shiniang's heart trembled, and she subconsciously swallowed her last words.

"No matter how good it is, it's just talk on paper, not to mention that the crown prince had not yet taken charge of the government at that time..." Xiao Yu shook his head, "It was General Shen's outstanding performance in the military field that impressed the late emperor, and he appointed Wu Zhuangyuan, but it is a pity..." Thinking of being intimidated by His military genius, Shen Zhongqing, was jointly designed by Zhen Guogong and Zhen Shangshu, and was forced to marry the daughter of the arrogant and willful Shangshu. Now he can't live without her, but the hero is destined to live a lonely life. Xiao Yu sighed quietly , did not say any more.

What's a pity?

Zhen Shiniang was puzzled. Seeing that Xiao Yu had shut up, she did not want to talk about Shen Zhongqing anymore, so she changed the topic and asked, "...It is rumored that Long Live will use the sixth princess to marry Qi Guo. Is it true? ?”

"Most people in the court are opposed to the marriage, and the dispute is still undecided..." Xiao Yu said, suddenly his heart moved, and he raised his head on a whim and asked, "...What does Miss Jian think?"

"Is General Shen about to send troops to the Yan Kingdom?" After a slight hesitation, Zhen Shiniang expressed her thoughts calmly.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had just pacified the Japanese pirates and subdued the Yiyue. The morale of the three armies was high, and the military force ranked first among the three kingdoms of Yan and Qi. They would never trade peace with their direct princesses. But now there is still controversy. Apparently Long Live intends to make peace, but the DPRK and China There were too many people who opposed it, so it was discussed again and again.

Wan live is a wise king, not a coward. The only reason why he advocated a marriage was that after pacifying the Yiyue, he developed a desire for unity.

Although the military force of Yan and Qi is not as good as that of the Great Zhou, the three kingdoms are still balanced. If the Great Zhou provokes a war without permission, Qi will come to help if he attacks Yan. The same goes for rebels. It is impossible to annex both countries at the same time. In the end, A good way is to form a fatal alliance with one of the countries through the marriage of the direct princess.

If this is the case, as long as she drags out the period of discord before Shen Zhongqing goes off to war again, she can buy herself one to two years to let her pills flourish in Taiyuan Hospital and successfully open a pharmaceutical factory. Create a kingdom for Jian Wu and Jian Wen!
