, As for our family affairs, the daughter-in-law will take care of the house, so you don't have to worry. "

As soon as she said this, she sneered, "Why - I didn't expect it, and I wanted to set a lot of traps for me in Kyoto, cutting off my connection with all my relatives and friends - hum, I didn't expect my mother to go back to Muzhou. Bar?"

General Qin: "..."

I couldn't quarrel with my daughter-in-law, so I beat Qin Kuan when I got home.

Qin Kuan went to Zhe Qing to complain again.

"His Royal Highness, the preparations for the propaganda department have been completed. When will you officially plan this yamen?"

Zhe Qing is busy, but this matter can’t be delayed. It’s already over a month, so he called an old man from the Hanlin Academy and introduced him, “This is Li Hanlin from the Hanlin Academy.”

Li Hanlin is a god.

Qin Kuan really knew him. It is rumored that when Li Hanlin was a child, his family was poor, but he was very greedy, so in order to eat a piece of meat from the landlord's family, he opened his own three-inch incorrupt tongue, gave the landlord's meat for no money, and coaxed most of it.

Later, when the landlord came over, he was angry and wanted to trouble him. Who knew that he rushed to his house and was sent out by Li Hanlin within an hour, and he went home and sent the rest of the food.

As a result, a few days later, the landlord once again realized that he had been deceived. He was impatient but did not dare to confront Li Hanlin again. After thinking about it, he finally realized that Li Hanlin was not an ordinary person. I was afraid that this small village could not hide him. , so he took the lead, assigned his daughter to him as his daughter-in-law, and made a baby kiss.

- Qin Kuan heard about this when he was collecting gossip secrets from various families.

This man's mouth is the most powerful.

He saluted Li Hanlin respectfully, and Li Hanlin nodded, not flattering or submissive to him because of Qin Kuan's identity, nor putting on airs, just like treating his nephew, he helped him up, and then followed Zhe Qing. After saying a few words, seeing that she had something to do, she took Qin Kuan to the next door to talk.

Li Hanlin, who has a single name and a single character, was very intelligent when he was young. Later, when he grew up, his appearance was also very handsome, and his appearance was very distinctive. To put it bluntly, he had "Holy Light".

He looked like he had compassion for all beings. He was poor at the time, so he just wanted to go to the Monk Temple to become a monk. He also shaved his head and climbed up the mountain to meet the abbot.

Seeing his appearance, the abbot heard him say that the day before he shaved his hair, he had a dream of extradition from a Buddha, and he was willing to give him a heart, as long as he was willing to inherit the temple.

Li Huan had been eating for a few days, but within a few days, his family came to him, snatched him back, and did not make him a monk for any reason.

Li Huan couldn't do anything—in fact, he didn't want to be a monk anymore. At this time, monks were no longer allowed to eat meat, and he was greedy.

Only then did the idea of ​​the landlord next door come to him, and he also deceived his daughter.

Among these incidents, the old monk was the most injured. He heard that he was unhappy because he did not get Li Huan to become a monk. Later, Li Huan married the daughter of the landlord's family next door, and he even sat on the seat.

Of course, Zhe Qing had heard of Li Hanlin and these things, so he invited him over.

Don't say it - if Li Hanlin could deceive the monk and his wife when he was young, then when he was old, he grew a beard and looked immortal. It would be best for him to be the head of the propaganda department.

Because what he has to do is very important.

"Simplified Chinese." Zhe Qing was busy with his work, and called back Li Hanlin and Qin Kuan, who had already talked for a while, and said, "Nowadays, the cost of literacy is too high."

She had already thought about this. However, this kind of thing, the relationship is too important, she does not dare to act rashly without a firm grasp.

Moreover, she set the simplified Chinese character plan for ten years.

If ten years from now, half of the people in the Yu Kingdom can read and understand documents in simplified characters, then it will be a success.

And because it was the family's cake, she chose Li Hanlin from thousands of choices.

His life experience, talent, are the most suitable.

She said: "Reading is the only way to be wise, and wise, it is the work of education."

Li Hanlin had already heard Zhe Qing say it once, and when he heard it for the first time, he was so excited that he lost all his immortal spirit, and only stammered: "His Royal Highness - the implementation of simplified Chinese characters is really important. To the old minister?"

Now, he calmly saw Qin Kuan stammered and asked, "Your Highness—simplified characters, do you really want to implement it?"

Zhe Qing nodded, "It must be implemented. They are not required to be able to write, but they can know what it means."

Qin Kuan was very excited, but he was born into an aristocratic family.

The noble family knew how many obstacles would be encountered after the implementation of this matter, but he also knew that Her Highness the Crown Princess was right.

This is a timeless thing.

His Highness took this matter to himself.

Zhe Qing laughed and comforted him: "The court chooses talents, and it will still follow the current system, you don't have to worry."

It is wise to open now, maybe in the future.

Sure enough, after the announcement of this matter, it caused a great uproar, but recently, Her Royal Highness's methods are extremely tyrannical, whether it is against it or not, it is useless.

Someone said: "It's only used in the folks, what does it matter? Your Highness should just think that there are too many illiterate people in the folks, and he thought of a way to make it easier for the folks to read and write."

But someone said: "His Royal Highness does things, and every step has its own deep meaning. Now it is only popularized among the people. If in the future, these words will appear on the court?"

Is the court going to be controlled by these common people who only recognize simplified characters?

Therefore, under the noisy and noisy, the people of Kyoto divided into two factions, bickering and debating on the Wanmin Square all day long. In this way, in the spring of February, when all things recovered, they found that although they were noisy, they were noisy, but some Common people merchants have begun to hang up signs in simplified Chinese characters.

The words are very simple and very easy to understand.

For example, a pig is a circle. There are two holes in the circle, and two dots at the bottom represent feet. It is easy to read and write.

Today, Kyoto Storyteller's restaurant has become a good place for literacy. Every time a word is written, it will be published in the newspaper and posted on the walls everywhere for everyone to see.

There were also special people who explained it there, and when I asked them, they said that they were propagandists of the yamen, who were directly affiliated to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and they were in charge of simplified Chinese characters.

The common people regard them as doing things and living Buddhas. Then I knelt down to thank Her Royal Highness the great kindness and great virtue of Her Royal Highness.

Yunzhou.

In February, it was still very cold, so Niu Dabao put the newly bought big leather clothes on Da Niu and Er Gouzi, and sent them to the carriage in Kyoto, saying: "When you get there, write a letter back, and my father will look for it. Do you guys read it, remember?"

The eldest girl nodded and told his father, "His Royal Highness has released a new benevolent government, which is simplified Chinese characters, which is a good thing, Dad, you remember, come back every day, and then you must read like my mother. "

Niu Dabao nodded shyly and expectantly, "I know, I know. Hey, you are young, don't worry about it so much."

Then he looked at Ergouzi again and said hesitantly, "Second boy, after you arrive in the capital, you must listen to your elder sister."

Ergouzi was originally not qualified to go to Kyoto, but the county magistrate said that he had written a letter about Ergouzi and wrote it to his friend in Kyoto.

"When he arrives in Kyoto, this child will have a better vision. He is a good boy, and his future is boundless. It is better to learn martial arts than to learn literature. Learning martial arts starts from elementary school. Among the people I know, the best friends in Kyoto are the best in martial arts. , is the captain again, and will definitely be able to take your second kid all the way smoothly."

Niu Dabao nodded, "This is his creation, and he will repay the adults in the future."

The magistrate Tang stroked his beard and smiled - of course he is also an investor. How can you be a man without asking for anything in return?

He also changed the names of the two people, the eldest girl is Dan Zhu and the second dog is Dan Qing.

Niu Dabao almost knelt down to thank him.

The county magistrate Tang was very proud that this group of children who went to Kyoto got rid of the two dogs, and there were seven good science seedlings. These seven people, all of his families have given care. If you want to come, as long as you can recognize one, he will travel a lot on the way to Kyoto in the future, right?

Nice to think about. Ouch, beautiful!

He said goodbye to these children, then said goodbye to the parents of these children, said a few more words to the wealthy businessman Anjia, and finally went shopping leisurely with his hands behind his back.

After walking a few steps, I saw a group of Wutu people entering the city gate.

This is to find something to do to make money. After the New Year, more Wutu people come here.

Because of road repairs.

The new cement developed by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has now been sold all over the Yu Kingdom. Their Yunzhou is from the Dragon State, so naturally they can get a good distribution, not to mention Xujiang, because Xujiang is a steel factory. The reason, has been walking in front of the states.

But building roads requires people. Ordinary people in Xujiang are no longer willing to do this kind of thing, so they have to recruit workers from outside. Among them, those from neighboring countries are the cheapest.

People from Wutu country are also the cheap people. They are even cheaper, so they are very popular.

Now in the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, it is not easy for these people to come in the wind and go in the rain. The philanthropist Tang County Magistrate, who has invested in many people, saw one of the young Wutu people gulping at the stall selling steamed buns next to him. He couldn't help but soften his heart. He took out ten copper plates from his arms and handed them to the child, "Go buy them and eat meat buns."

The child held the money, shook his head, and the servant next to him said, "This is the county magistrate, just take it if you give it to you, don't let it go."

Only then did a group of people dare to accept it, and when the magistrate Tang and the two yamen left, they said, "The officials here are pretty good."

They are from the countryside of Wutu State. King Wutu suddenly went crazy last year and even attacked Yunzhou with the whole country. As a result, when Yunzhou fought back, Wutu State almost wiped out the country, and later became a vassal of Yu State, but it did not cause any loss to the common people. It's just that, after this battle, the nobles of Wutu can still eat, and the poor have died, so they have to come to Yunzhou to find work.

A group of people from their village have already come. When they went home last year, they brought a lot of money home. So this year, other people in the village couldn't bear it any longer and came over when they heard the news that they were going to recruit people.

A man who looked older said: "Let's keep the money that the lord just gave us, and eat the buns when we earn more money in the future."

The young man hummed and handed the money to the older man, "Uncle, don't worry, I know."

The group of them immediately and non-stop rushed to the place where the fellow villagers lived.

Go all the way, all the way in disbelief.

The people here are well-fed and well-fed, with smiles on their faces. Children play with the old man on the street, and the old man wears thick clothes and chats with melon seeds in their hands.

They also passed by the entrance of a snack street alley, and the fragrance wafting from the alley made the young people's stomachs keep ringing.

- They can't have enough food in Wutu Country, how can Yunzhou, which is not too far away, be so prosperous?

what is this?

The old man stroked his beard and said, "Yunzhou... I came here when I was young, but it wasn't like this. At that time, the people here couldn't have enough to eat. It was a year ago that this place became Yu. Her Royal Highness, the crown princess of the country, divides the fiefdom, and with the convenience she brings, slowly, in less than a year, Yunzhou has become such a prosperous place."

I see.

When the young man heard this, his eyes showed yearning for the capital: "If all her fiefdoms are like this, then how glorious is the capital where she lives?"

Hurry up and walk, and you come to a remote alley. The old man followed the address, walked to a half-open door and knocked.

There were bursts of footsteps inside, and a surprised voice said: "Uncle Amu, you are finally here."

The visitor is called Xin Shui. At the age of 30, he has been working in Yunzhou for half a year, and a wooden house has been built in Wutu. His family is now the richest person in the village.

Xin Shui took the cloth bag for the old man and said, "I have already signed up for you. You will have a day off tomorrow, and you can go to work with me the day after. This time it's road construction, and the work is more tiring and heavy, but Give more money, eat well, and return cloth."

The old man nodded his head, and the young man followed, crowded into a room.

It was so fresh for them inside.

The beds are like going up and down the table. In front of each table, there are chairs, and under the chairs, there is even a trash basket. Not only that, the young man glanced at the bed and was happy because he saw the quilt.

There are twelve beds in this room. The beds have quilts, and the quilts look brand new. He said, "Is this all for us?"

That's not it. just for them.

That's fine too. The young man looked longingly, "It's good, this is much better than our family."

is much better. Otherwise, how could so many people leave their homes and come here?

At the end of February, Xuzhou.

When the troops of Muzhou and Lingzhou came to the city, the generals of Xuzhou had already made preparations.

Qiu Bin's son had already had a fight with Shen Liu. What the Qiu family meant was to let their father go immediately, and what Shen Liu meant was that you should open the city gate quickly, or else it would be a real fight.

The two seemed to be at a stalemate. In the city, Qiu Bin's son Qiu Yan said to the elders in the clan: "Now, it is obvious that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess wants to kill us all, so we can only betray and go abroad."

As a result, the elder's eyes flickered and he was very uncertain, because they actually heard another way of saying it.

That is, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess did not intend to attack Xuzhou, but felt that Qiu Bin was extremely rude and disrespectful to the monarch. She did not want Qiu Bin to be the commander. If the rest of the Qiu family could directly rely on her, that would not be the case. impossible.

Qiu Yan knew his expression and eyes, and said angrily, "Don't you believe in a person from far away, don't you believe in our own people in the Qiu family? That little **** is clearly trying to make Xuzhou Take it back, do you think you can call the shots in the end?"

As soon as the words fell, the elder suddenly became assertive, "This Xuzhou, originally belonged to the Yu Kingdom, is there a king's land in the whole world, is it because you want to rebel, we have to rebel?"

In fact, most of them don't want to.

Those who can participate in the government are more or less talented, and they can see clearly what the current situation is. The Kyoto side is engaged in the economy and construction. Is Xuzhou going to stop and fight?

So, a group of people are fighting, a group of people are arguing, and the outside has not yet come in, and the inside is fighting to the death.

Finally, Qiu Yan felt that something was wrong.

"How come there are so many people against it? In the past, when my father was here, they didn't dare to speak."]

At this time, a confidant found the shepherd's family in Xuzhou City.

This shepherd's family also has several generals in the army who are loyal to the Qiu family. Why did they suddenly defect?

Outside the city, Shen Liu said to Mu Chu, "Your old man is really amazing, he can hide for so many years."

Mu Chuzhi smiled, stroking the steel knife in Yunzhou, feeling that the whole person was released, he didn't speak, he picked up the knife to fight for a while, and chopped off a lot of leaves in the courtyard.

Shen Liu said: "Hey - it's really a sin."

If you dance with a knife, you will dance with a knife. What are you doing to attack the tree, they are not like this from Yunzhou.

People from Xuzhou, tsk, dancing a knife and standing in a circle among the fallen leaves for a while is really stinky. Yu Zhu'er also looked down on Mu Chu, and said sadly: "We have been here for several days, are we still fighting?"

Shen Liu said: "It must be a fight, but our swords are not aimed at the heads of the people of Xuzhou, nor the heads of Xuzhou soldiers, but only at the heads of Xuzhou rebels, you know?"

Mu Chu is a gentle and elegant person, a Confucian general, said: "Yes, that's why we refuse to attack, we just catch traitors, where is the killing of our own brothers, you understand, I understand, Xuzhou City The people of the world should also understand.”

He was talking when he saw someone coming from behind, Mu Chu glanced at him, his eyes paused, and said, "This is Brother Gu, right?"

Gu Xiqiao hummed casually and said to Shen Liu, "What you asked me to do has already been done."

Yu Zhu'er was curious, "Shen Liu, what did you ask him to do mysteriously?"

Shen Liu showed his big white teeth, "I won't tell you."

In the middle of the night, the city of Xuzhou suddenly became sultry, and lightning flashed and thundered in the sky.

The Qiu Yan brothers were studying battle strategies from the study—the main reason was why Shen Liu was only talking about guns instead of drawing his sword directly.

If he kept going like this, did he think he would be able to endure the food supply in Xuzhou? impossible. Xuzhou's food is enough for another year, but the soldiers of Muzhou and Lingzhou consume food faster than their Xuzhou, right?

Qiu Yan's younger brother Qiu Shi said: "What if you want to spend with us? We are not the only family in the city, and we are a strong enemy outside the city. What can we do?"

Yes, now there are more opponents like the Shepherd's family, and now the barracks are also very chaotic. The shepherd's family and the Qiu family have been divided into cities, and the situation is tense.

Then, without thinking, when I first received the news that my father had been struck by lightning, and after Yunzhou was going to bring troops to fight, it was the shepherd's family who said that we must stabilize first and not underestimate the enemy.

"We should have gone to Muzhou at that time—" Qiu Shi said: "Otherwise, we wouldn't have been attacked like this."

Qiu Yan did not speak.

If they can kill them in Muzhou, won't the people from Muzhou kill them?

When the whole country was dealing with Xuzhou, even if Xuzhou was arrogant, he would not dare to underestimate the enemy, let alone charge into the battle. Without his father, he seemed to have lost his backbone. At that time, there was chaos in the military camp, and their brothers had to put the internal Steady, and then before he could stabilize for a few days, Shen Liu came down to the city.

Really hateful.

After the two had secretly talked, they still could not find a way to break out of the siege, and they saw a sudden thunderstorm outside.

Qiu Yan was furious, "Damn God—"

Before the words were finished, it was another thunderstorm.

At this time, Qiu Yan heard someone calling him outside, so he got up and went out to open the door. Seeing that it was an old servant at home, he said, "What's the matter?"

The old servant said in a panic, "Young master, the third elder and the generals are here, saying that they have something important to tell you."

Qiu Yan and Qiu Shi followed, but halfway through, he suddenly felt a movement over the tree, which seemed to be a man in black.

He shouted where to run, then went over, raised his sword to chop up, and heard a snap, that black human figure was not a living person, but a scarecrow, and his iron sword cut directly on the tree, the electric light Between the flints, I saw a flash of lightning from the sky hit the tree directly. Because he was holding the sword, the thunder followed his sword and led him over, knocking him unconscious.

Seeing this, his brother ran away—because just for a split second, he had to believe one thing: this was the thunder that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess drew, and it was going to kill him.

The old butler was so frightened that he threw the lantern on the ground and shouted, "God hacked people, hacked people—"

And this scene was also seen by the subordinates of the Qiu family. In an instant, everyone could not raise their fighting spirit.

"God, isn't that the real father of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess?"

"His Royal Highness said that if you can chop it, you can chop it. If you can't chop it, let people spread the rumors. Let me find someone to assassinate him, and then burn it into black coal, pretending to be chopped." Shen Liu said: "She also said that this kind of The thing that attracts the lightning is actually very simple, and it is difficult to be hacked accurately, but I didn't expect that the Qiu family and their son were hacked."

But God is really helping.

Yu Zhu'er stayed away from this, and said happily: "Now, can we enter the city?"

The people in the city who were supposed to be brainwashed have already been brainwashed. The barefoot doctors they sent out at that time were still useful. At least within the scope of their medical practice, it was the Xuzhou Qiu family who wanted to betray the country. They are going to lead the State of Lu to attack Xuzhou, and they are going to defect to the State of Lu.

Then, as soon as the news that Qiu Yan was struck by lightning came out, there was a little gossip in the crowd: Is God really watching Xuzhou? Ouch, it's scary to think about.

And Qiu Yan was not rescued in the end. At this time, the military heart was very scattered, and Qiu Shi had no choice. If he waited, there would be more people who defected to the shepherd's family.

"The Mu family and Shen Liu are inside the city and outside the city, but if they don't take the initiative to attack, they just want to kill us." He said angrily: "But we can't go on like this, throwing a life, but also killing us."

Then, a battle that ended in an hour with minimal casualties was launched.

Unfortunately, Qiu Shi escaped.

Shen Liu said unhappily, "How did you escape?"

Mu Chu commanded people to clean up the mess, slapped the horse over, and said: "He shouted vigorously, but he changed clothes with his subordinates and escaped."

Shameless!

Yu Zhu'er fought a battle today, but she didn't feel excited. She said to Shen Liu: "The killing was not fun, they were all from the Yu country, hey."

Shen Liu glanced at her, thinking that those who defected could not be called Yuguo people.

However, he also breathed a sigh of relief, "His Royal Highness said that he would try to win Xuzhou peacefully. I was afraid that it would be too bloody. When the time comes, I will go back and criticize me. Now, it's good, this is the easiest battle I've ever fought."

No...and Utu country.

That is really simple.

In Kyoto, because the battle was fought on the border of Muzhou, almost at the same time, when Zhe Qing received the good news, General Qin also received the good news. He looked at what was written on it: Qiu Yan was struck by lightning and died of death, a few words, and he muttered again in his heart.

Ask the servants to find Qin Kuan, "call him to come."

The servant was very embarrassed and said, "General, Young Master, he hasn't come back to live for a long time. Last time I called him, he didn't come back."

Said to be busy.

General Qin had to go to Qin Kuan in person, but was told that Qin Kuan could not see him. When General Qin was angry, he walked inside with a knife and saw his son drinking fresh juice happily. Even if it is a salute, the introduction is very strange.

"Yo - now my aunt is not here, you are not at home making out with your aunt and concubines, what are you doing here with me?"

General Qin asked for something, and held back his anger and did not speak. After a while, he felt that this son was just like this, what else could he do with his own son, he could only say aggrievedly: "Qiu Yan was struck by lightning, you know what? ?"

This Qin Kuan really doesn't know! However, he also instantly knew the purpose of his father's visit, so the nose was not the nose, the eyes were not the eyes, and he mocked: "There is nothing to go to the Three Treasures Palace - I want to tell you, there is no way!"

General Qin couldn't bear it any longer, beat him up, and went home. Before leaving, he said sarcastically, "I think it's not that you didn't tell me, but you don't know at all—that boy from the Shen family knows."

Angrily Qin Kuan waved a few fists at his back angrily, and went to the palace to find Zhe Qing to complain.

Zhe Qing was seeing several children from Yunzhou. One of the girls aroused her joy and asked someone to bring her a piece of jujube cake. She was very excited—this was the first girl who came out of a poor family.

She was so excited that she had time to joke with Qin Kuan. She turned her head and said to him, "Actually, you don't have to feel wronged when your father hits you."

Qin Kuan: "...Huh?"

Zhe Qing told a cold joke.

"Because—Dad was injured."

After she finished speaking, Qin Kuan didn't understand. She laughed first. Qin Kuan realized later that Zhe Qing was making fun of him. Moreover.

- Her Royal Highness, I am really happy today.
