Liu Wei said it naturally, but Liu Xin looked at it carefully. She was quite surprised to see Gao Pragmatism, and couldn't help but feel secretly proud in her heart.
Her father, Liu Xian, came from a poor family. He relied on his own hard work to achieve his current status. It can be said that he has fought a lifetime of wars. His elder brother, Liu Wei, even went to war with his father at the age of thirteen. In his first battle, he killed the enemy chieftain ruthlessly.
Characters, it would be too difficult for Governor Liu to say that a family like this could teach a young lady who has never made a career out of the family. Therefore, although Liu Xin is smart, at least 70% of her smartness is spent on military affairs.
The remaining 30% was barely used to help my father and brother deal with the relationship between their superiors and colleagues in the court.
Since she is good at military affairs, of course she has to dabble in martial arts. However, most of the martial arts inherited from her family are the methods of fighting in battle formations, which are not very suitable for her as a girl to practice, so she just practices casually.
A set of dexterous sword skills and a few spear skills, and all the other work is devoted to bows and arrows.
Liu Wei takes martial arts very seriously. Not only has he killed generals and captured flags many times on the battlefield, but he is also a martial arts maniac. He likes to find people to fight against in the army, so since he dares to talk about Liu Xin's archery skills
If he is not inferior to him in terms of strength, then Liu Xin's archery skills are at least unparalleled in terms of accuracy.
Gao Pingshi smiled and said: "Ms. Liu is a powerful woman. She is indeed a woman who is not inferior to men. The students admire her very much."
Liu Xin shook his head and said: "Martial arts are just a minor thing. It is right for a general to put his mind on military strategy. Just like Qi Shaobao, who is obviously excellent in martial arts. How many times have you seen him fight with others with swords?"
Liu Wei coughed lightly, obviously a little unconvinced, but he didn't seem to dare to argue with Liu Xin, and he didn't say much after he coughed.
Gao Pragmatic laughed: "What Miss Liu said is absolutely true. As the saying goes, the power of a general is the strength of a general, and the courage of a general is the courage of a soldier. Of course, a general must be courageous, but he cannot rely too much on force and ruthlessness to put the whole army in danger.
.”
As he was talking, it suddenly started to rain. Gao Pingshi quickly invited the brothers and sisters into the west side of the Main Hall and asked, "Are you two here alone?"
Liu Wei pointed outside and said: "I have brought more than 20 cavalry and servants, and they all stayed outside to guard."
That's right. Although Liu Wei certainly won't worry about being robbed, if he brings his sister with him, he won't even bring a few subordinates with him.
The Yao sisters on the other side of the statue were silent at this time. Although Gao Pragmatic still couldn't remember any high-ranking officials of the Yao family who were familiar with him, he felt that their attitude towards him was at least not malicious, so he did so.
Don't worry too much, he asked the Liu brothers and sisters: "What are you doing in Beijing this time? Do you need Gao's help?"
Liu Wei said very bachelorly: "I don't have anything important to do, I just want to take the martial arts exam." He paused and explained: "Actually, I have an official position, so I didn't need to take any exams, but now I
I got an idle job and was sitting in a camp at a small school in Nanjing. My bones ached from being idle all day long, so I came to take a martial arts test to see if I could fight."
Damn it, no wonder you act so awesome when you see my servants, do you want to provoke them into a fight? Then you are so idle that your bones ache!
However, Gao Pragmatic is a capable actor after all. Although he rolled his eyes in his heart, he smiled cheerfully on his face: "Then I wish my brother Sheng to win the first prize in one fell swoop."
Liu Xin was worried that her eldest brother couldn't speak, so she took over the topic and said, "Brother, this matter is all right, it's just a way of doing it, but the slave family really has two things to discuss with Mr. Gao."
Gao Pingshi originally just said a polite word, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a prophecy. However, he did not panic and asked: "Miss Liu, it doesn't matter if you say it."
Liu Xin said: "The first thing is that my father has been seriously ill since Funing Xifan. He often suffers from bone pain and cramps. However, he was not allowed to resign several times. Therefore, he sent my brother and sister to Beijing, hoping that Mr. Gao can serve as my father's wife.
Mr. Guo Ge, Mr. Zhang Ge and the emperor stated their reasons for my father in front of the emperor and allowed him to retire and return to his hometown to spend his remaining years in peace."
Bone pain and cramps?
Gao pragmatic secretly said: Liu Xian spent his whole life fighting in the south. His bone pain and cramps are most likely caused by gout. This disease is not easy to cure. Although it does not seem to be fatal, it is indeed very troublesome for a military general.
If it is true, Liu Xian may really want to resign.
However, Liu Xian has been under the leadership of Gao Dang since the fourth year of Longqing, and later suppressed many rebellions in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan. He is already the military representative of Gao Dang in the southern system. His sudden resignation is not a big deal.
It's a good thing. The teacher didn't agree to it several times before. Obviously, he should have considered it from this aspect. However, if the person is really seriously ill, it seems that forcing the person to stay and not allow him to retire is not an option. This matter needs to be carefully considered.
Gao pragmatically considered it and said: "Guo Ge is always my teacher, and Zhang Ge is always my uncle. This is something everyone knows. However, major affairs in the court cannot be determined by personal relationships. I can convey this matter on your behalf, but the two
I can't guarantee how the elder will make a decision."
Liu Wei was a little surprised after hearing this, and when he was about to speak, Liu Xin stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "What Mr. Gao said is correct, and both my father and my brother and sister can understand it. However, my father's body is indeed unable to bear the heavy responsibility in Shu.
I hope Mr. Gao can convey this sentiment. If the imperial court takes pity on me and I have some free time with my father, I think my father will still be willing to do his last for the imperial court."
These words made Gao Pingshi a little surprised. He frowned and said, "Is Governor Liu's body already so... difficult?"
Liu Xin's face darkened, and she nodded: "It's not just chronic illnesses, there are also many injuries in the early years, and now... sigh!"
Liu Wei also gave a rare sigh, but immediately added: "The fate of a warrior is like this. When you go to the battlefield, you don't have much to worry about. You only think about winning the battle, and you don't care about other things."
As soon as he said these words, Gao Pingshi thought of the tragic death of Liu Wei in the history, and couldn't help but respect him. He nodded and said: "Captain Liu has experienced hundreds of battles, has made outstanding achievements, and is powerful in southern Xinjiang. I will convey this matter truthfully."
Brother Liu and his sister thanked him quickly, and then Liu Xin added, "One more thing... I wonder if Master Gao still remembers the hemostatic medicine that my father gave to him back then?"
Gao pragmatic thought for a while and suddenly said: "Is it the hemostatic drug with Panax notoginseng as the main ingredient? I remember that the drug is very powerful, it stops bleeding very quickly, and it is very effective. If I remember correctly, I will ask your father to find it.
People should study it carefully to see if they can go one step further and make a magic medicine to stop bleeding."
Seeing that he remembered it, Liu Xin couldn't help but smile: "Thanks to Mr. Gao, my father has never forgotten this matter in these years. In the past few years in Yunchuan and Guizhou, he has found many famous local doctors to discuss the details together, and finally made it at the beginning of this year.
Powder the treasures to extend your life."
As she spoke, she took out a small white porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to Gao Pangshi, saying: "Mr. Gao, please take a look, this is it."
Gao Pingshi was overjoyed and thought to himself: I wonder if this Baibao Xuanming Powder is similar to the Yunnan Baiyao of later generations? If Yunnan Baiyao were seven to eight times more effective, there would be far fewer soldiers who died of serious injuries on the battlefields of the Ming Dynasty in the future!
He reached out to take the white porcelain bottle, brought it closer and was about to uncork it, when he suddenly realized that the porcelain bottle was very warm, and at the same time he smelled a delicate fragrance. Unconsciously, his heart suddenly lurched, and he subconsciously looked towards Liu Xin.
Liu Xin didn't think much about it at first. She was stunned when she saw Gao Pragmatic holding the porcelain bottle. Then she looked at her and understood the crux of the problem. A blush suddenly appeared on her delicate face and she looked away.
.
Only Liu Wei was confused. Seeing Gao Pragmatic suddenly look at the bottle in his hand, he froze. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What's wrong, Mr. Gao? Is there anything wrong with this bottle?"
