Every time he finished a battle, Liang Xiao had to review and discuss the gains and losses.When he was on the battlefield, he discussed the opposite direction sometimes Li Guang, Li Xi and others, sometimes Xie Guanglong, Alexander and others, but when he returned home, there was only one direction: Master Huanyuan.Huan Yuan is not famous, but Huan Yuan's strategic and tactical literacy is outstanding.At this point, as far as Liang Xiao knows, it is not very common in the world.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was known to later generations as a strategist with an outstanding view of the overall situation, but he has not yet reached that point.Liang Xiao carefully recounted the course of the war, drawing the grassland while talking, and explaining the terrain near Henan.Huan Yuan hugged his legs, listened quietly, and asked from time to time.The master and apprentice said a word, and I said a word, and looked at each other from time to time, showing a knowing smile."
Cheng doesn't know merit, but it's hard to appreciate."
Huan Yuan finally sighed softly: "Anyway, his decapitation level is limited.Even if the imperial court is partial, I am afraid it is only symbolic.After all, there is a law, and no one can easily break it.As soon as this example is opened, the evaluation of military merits in the future will become a hall of words for the Son of Heaven.I think even Cheng Buzhi doesn't want to see this scene. ”Liang Xiao nodded.He felt that way too.The military merit system based on beheadings is like the college entrance examination system based on scores, there are many problems and countless criticisms, but so far, you really can't find a better alternative."
You are grateful to Cheng Buzhi, you can thank you privately.If it weren't for him dragging the Right Virtuous King, you wouldn't have been able to do this. ”"yes, I see."
Liang Xiao responded.He had already asked his subordinates who didn't know Cheng and knew that the reason why King Youxian was late in the middle of the night was entirely due to Cheng Buzhi's risky attack.If it weren't for this, not only would he not have the opportunity to burn the second battalion, but he might also be surrounded by an army of 20,000 led by King Youxian, and the consequences would be unpredictable."
That master, the Son of Heaven may have guessed the origin of that art of war."
Liang Xiao weighed the words."
I think it is my honor to inherit King Xiang's art of war and martial arts.There's no need to hide it.If anyone asks about it again, you might as well say so. ”Huan Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Liang Xiao for a moment."
The Son of Heaven has embarrassed you" "Without King Xiang's Art of War, he will also embarrass me."
It just gave him an excuse. ”Liang Xiao smiled calmly: "Since that's the case."
We might as well take this opportunity to untie this knot, lest anyone make irresponsible remarks about this matter at every turn.Even if he doesn't give me Yifeng this time, my 1,800 households will have enough to eat.I dare to marry Liu Ling, and I don't dare to admit King Xiang's art of war" Huan Yuan was silent for a moment, and then smiled."
Well, since you've come to this point.I won't stop you.Xiang Wang Quanxia has knowledge, and he should be glad to have a successor like you. ”"Master, you and Uncle Zhongli have any relatives, I will go back to Jiangdu this time and bring them to Chang'an by the way."
Huan Yuan was silent for a long time, his eyes full of sadness."
No, no, no.I'm a human being, and he's a human being too. ”"Master, how could there be none."
Liang Xiao bowed to the ground."
Master, you still have me and Niu'er."
Huan Yuan laughed.Tears glistened in his eyes.Outside the house, Zhong Liqi covered his face and burst into tears.Liang Xiao came to Liang Yuan's house.Liang Yuan and Li Rongqing were talking, Liang Yuan's face was serious, and Li Rongqing's eyes were red.Alpa stood aside, saw Liang Xiao come in, and gave him a look.Liang Xiao understood, pretended not to know, and stepped forward to salute."
Sit down."
Seeing her son, Liang Yuan was in a good mood.Zhan Yan smiled: "Rongqing, you go and prepare, and wait for Ah Xiao to sleep later." ”"Whoa."
Li Rongqing answered, blushing.got up and left.Liang Xiao laughed and didn't say anything.He knew that although the old lady would not straighten Li Rongqing, she liked Li Rongqing the most and had always protected her.In contrast, if the moon hadn't been pregnant one after another, I'm afraid she would have been called as a servant girl long ago.In the eyes of the Han Chinese.Hu Nu is a natural slave."
Mother, there's something I want to ask you.""
What's the matter?"
"Do you remember the last time you went to the palace to meet the queen and came back to tell me" Liang Yuan thought for a while."
Yes.Didn't you disagree at the time, why did you ask this sentence again now" "Mother, the queen has begged to come to the lord of Weng, and this matter will have to be solved by me sooner or later."
Mother, think about it again, with your experience, the Son of Heaven" Liang Xiao hesitated for a moment, and subconsciously lowered his voice."
Do you have many children" Liang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and a trace of uneasiness flashed in her eyes."
Ah Xiao, what do you mean by this" Liang Xiao smiled.The reason why he asked this question was because he had read a research article that was almost a spoof in his previous life.The article said that it was not the queen who was infertile, but the Son of Heaven.Several of the sons of the Son of Heaven were actually not his own children, so the concubines who gave birth to children for him all died in the end, and five of the six sons died early, and most of the daughters did not end well.Of course, Liang Xiao will not believe this kind of legend, but at this moment, if he wants to solve the mystery of the queen's infertility, he can't let go of a trace of clues.Sometimes what seems to be the most unreliable theory may be the truth.What is going on in the palace, who can say clearly" should not. ”Liang Yuan recalled carefully."
Although I am not a scholar, the atrium of the Son of Heaven is full and full of energy, not like a blessed person.What to worry about is that there are too many women in the palace, and he is overindulgent, which will affect the heirs.The man is the ox, the woman is the earth, but the cow is tired and dead, and there is no ploughed land.The emperor is also a man, not a god. ”Liang Xiao thought about it and felt reasonable.He asked again: "Then my mother has heard that remarriage will affect the heirs" Liang Yuan pondered for a while, and realized."
Although I have never heard anyone say this, I have indeed seen a lot of relatives, although I have not heard of those who cannot have children, but there are several children with dementia.Why, this also has an impact" Liang Xiao had an idea in his heart.He knew that the possibility of fetal malformations in close relatives marriage was greater than that of ordinary people, and he didn't know if it would lead to infertility, but it didn't matter, he could ask Liu Ling to arrange someone to do an investigation.The Han Dynasty paid attention to re-kinship, which is commonly known as pro-in-family, aunts and cousins are countless, and there are many nobles in Chang'an, these families are more married to each other, and the number of samples is sufficient, as long as you spend a little time, it is not difficult to find the truth.If it is determined that Empress Chen's infertility is not Empress Chen's problem, and the Son of Heaven is going to be abolished, then it will have to be considered.Of course, the premise is to keep Empress Chen away from the witch.She was eventually deposed, and the role of witchcraft was even greater.Before returning to his room, Liang Xiao went to look at the moon again.The moon is pregnant, she has already shown her pregnancy, and her body is inconvenient, and she did not show up at the Liang family dinner.Seeing Liang Xiao at this moment, she was very excited, holding Liang Xiao's arm, muttering non-stop."
How are you doing?"
"Nothing but horseback riding." ”Moon smiled and said, "With them with me, I'm happy, it's like returning to the grassland." ”Liang Xiao looked at Beta and Xia.Because of the shadow left by Sigma's sacrifice, he did not take the three sisters with him on this expedition, but stayed at home.Alpha is more thoughtful, and was left by his wife to wait, and Beta and Thea became the moon's maids.They are of the same age, and they are all Hu people in the eyes of the Han people, they have a common language, and they are easy to get along with."
Don't worry about riding a horse, when I come back from Jiangdu, I'll take you to ride.When the time comes, I'll find you a big horse, also called the moon, okay" "Really" The moon's eyes lit up, shining like stars."
When did I lie to you" Liang Xiao pinched the moon's little face."
Great."
The moon jumped up, hugged Liang Xiao, and kissed him fiercely.Don't look at her pregnant, she is still smart.After talking to the moon and the others for a while, Liang Xiao returned to his room.Li Rongqing is already waiting.Liang Xiao glanced at her and couldn't help but smile bitterly.He was tossing about other people's affairs, but he forgot that he had another person who wanted his children to go crazy.Li Rongqing greeted him, loosened Liang Xiao's clothes, and brought washing water to serve Liang Xiao to wash.She was visibly nervous.When Liang Xiao saw it, he was also a little unbearable.When Li Rongqing got into the quilt, he stretched out his arm, hugged Li Rongqing in his arms, and chatted about family life."
Rongqing, are you all going back to Jiangjiang smoothly" "Uh" Li Rongqing was stunned for a moment, her tense body relaxed a little, and a slight smile appeared on her face."
It went well, it went very well.The old neighbors in Qingyun are enthusiastic.Do you know that our family's small courtyard has become a Li Society, and a pavilion has been built on top of that Qianqiu, and it is still a ceremony presided over by Minister Dong Zhongshu himself. ”"Dong Zhongshu" Liang Xiao then remembered that Dong Zhongshu is now the minister of Jiangdu.He suddenly thought of a question: The Son of Heaven asked me to escort Liu Fei's coffin back to Jiangdu, I'm afraid it's not just because I have some friendship with Liu Fei, does he want to send me to Dong Zhongshu again to be taught Liang Xiao rolled his eyes and asked: "How is Dong Zhongshu's voice in Jiangdu?"
"He" Li Rongqing laughed, as if she had thought of something special and cola."
It's okay to say anything else, the witches and gods don't have a good impression of him, and Granny Chu specially brought two chickens to beg for Grandma, I want you to speak in front of the Son of Heaven and transfer Dong Zhongshu away."
Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing.Granny Chu, he still has the impression that she is the old witch who treated him.At the beginning, he carried a chicken to thank Granny Chu, and now Granny Chu is carrying two chickens to beg the old lady, the old lady must have a sense of accomplishment In ordinary people's homes, one chicken is a big gift, not to mention two chickens."
Dong Zhongshu, why is it in their way," Li Rongqing smiled with peach blossoms on her face."
Dong Zhongshu will beg for rain, rob them of their jobs, and cut off their financial routes.""
Dong Zhongshu begging for rain" Liang Xiao was stunned for a while, and suddenly realized.He remembered that this great Confucian, who had made great contributions to Confucianism, would not only give lectures, but also ask for rain, and his masterpiece Spring and Autumn Dew had two articles of asking for rain and stopping rain, which recorded the order for rain issued when he was the minister of state in Jiangdu:
