Chapter 373: The two clans go to war
Looking at Yuan Xi and the other two who had been chatting enthusiastically, Huang Yueying, who was wearing a veil, couldn't help but whisper: "Husband, please ask the king to go inside and chat slowly."
As she spoke, the technical chip in Yuan Xi's mind that had not been used suddenly moved slightly, as if she was attracted by an instant. It was obvious that Huang Yueying had extremely strong qualifications in this regard.
However, Yuan Xi did not show it at all, but instead smiled and said, "Kong Ming, this is your wife Huang Yueying!"
"That's right, Yueying, take off the veil and pay homage to the king," said Zhuge Liang.
Huang Yueying nodded and slowly took off the veil, a beautiful face suddenly appeared. With those bright eyes, she was not as charming as Zhen Mi, but she was also considered a beauty and was rare.
A sudden surprise flashed across Yuan Xi's face, and the servant next to him was also very surprised. The wife was not only not ugly, but also beautiful!
Jiang Wan, who was standing beside him, smiled bitterly after seeing this situation, said, "Report to the king, these are all the teachers' thoughts. He was afraid that the promising young people would not recognize the jade of Jingshan. He deliberately said that Yueying was ugly and wanted to try the character of his son-in-law. In fact, Yueying was not as legendary as the legend. Later, the story spread. For the reputation of the teacher and the nobleness of Kong Ming, Yueying voluntarily carried the veil."
"So that's the case. Madam is wronged," Yuan Xi said sighing.
"The king is serious. If my father hadn't arranged this way, I wouldn't have chosen a strange man like my husband." Huang Yueying said happily with her face.
"Haha, okay, Gu has long heard that his wife is not only extremely intelligent, but also reads the whole book, but also likes wood art, right?" Yuan Xi said curiously.
Zhuge Liang felt nervous in an instant and said quickly: "It makes the king laugh. Yueying is actually virtuous in her family, but when she is bored, she likes to make something that is convenient for life."
Since ancient times, women have only one task, and they will be ridiculed by taking care of their husbands and children and learning wood arts. Especially for Yuan Xi, who are from four generations and three masters and rich men from the Han family, they are even more disdainful of them.
"Haha, Kong Ming, don't worry. It's not that I'm dissatisfied, but that I appreciate it very much. Tell me what I think is the art of wood art is inferior?" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.
Zhuge Liang frowned, thought carefully, and then clasped his fists and said, "Reporting to the king, I actually think it's okay. Wood art can not only help the people to a great extent, but also have an unexpected effect in fighting in the army. My Dayan's sky-storm cannon is the representative."
"Well said it, right." Yuan Xi praised twice and looked at Huang Yueying and said, "Madam, I will give you a token. You can go to the most strict Tiangong Academy in Dayan. There are countless skilled craftsmen in it. In addition to the sky cannon, there are many extraordinary things. If you are interested, I can let you make it alone in the mansion as an extra-staff member of Tiangong Academy. Of course! All the costs required are borne by the national treasury, and there is a considerable salary every month, so you are willing."
Huang Yueying's face showed excitement for the first time. She had heard of the existence of Tiangong Academy for a long time. It is said that there are countless inventions in it and she has always wanted to take a look. However, it is said that except for the people designated by Yuan Xi, everyone else can enter.
Although "husband" Huang Yueying couldn't wait, she still looked at Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said lovingly: "Your kindness is great, just agree, I know that you are bored at home."
Huang Yueying was very excited and bowed: "Thank you, King."
"Haha, let's go, Kong Ming, take Gu to the mansion with you," Yuan Xi waved.
"King, please" Zhuge Liang quickly bent down and guided the way.
Although Yuan Xi also had a smile on his lips, he sighed in his heart. Unfortunately, Huang Yueying was a girl. No matter what she had before or what she had in the future, but in his era, women must never be an official, and that skillful heart is even more impossible to give, because Yuan Xi had to personally control the people who could be received and summoned frequently, so he had to be a man. In this regard, even if Huang Yueying had great talent, she was not qualified, but with huge potential in this area, she could still fully display it as a powerful auxiliary.
After a little walk around the mansion, Yuan Xi slowly walked down the main seat of the main hall, looking at Zhuge Liang standing beside him, and said gently: "Kong Ming, I will be assessed tomorrow, I will not hide it from you. You are the top scholar, but I also hope that you can do your best and let the three great masters take the initiative to let Gu come and sign you as the first place."
"I am grateful to the king for his kindness, and I will do my best." Zhuge Liang knelt on the ground in emotion. Yuan Xi's love for him was beyond ordinary, and he was completely trained as the next generation of prime ministers.
"Haha, do you still remember what Gu said to you? Just one sentence, Gu absolutely trusts you." Yuan Xi reiterated that he not only loved Zhuge Liang from the bottom of his heart, but also felt grateful. It was because of Zhuge Liang's arrival that Qianlong turned into a flying dragon, laying the foundation for him to be the emperor of the ages.
Jiang Wan, who was beside her, showed a hint of amazement on her face. It seemed that as the teacher said, he and Kong Ming were not only talented, but also a heavenly clever in his life. The two were like the moon against the stars, which was incomparable at all.
"I will definitely bow to the essence of Da Yan for my whole life, and die before I die, be a minister of Da Yan, and die as a ghost of Da Yan." After Zhuge Liang took the oath with great determination, he kowtowed three times.
"Okay, Kong Ming gets up quickly." Yuan Xi looked at the golden loyalty value of the hundred and shining loyalty value and waved with relief.
"Thank you"
"King, the Privy Council urgently reported" Zheng Chun suddenly ran in anxiously.
Yuan Xi took the memorial and after reading it carefully, he looked at Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wan who were curious and said seriously: "Ship Yan Shuai has written to him that the Xiongnu and Xianbei have started a war."
Zhuge Liang's face suddenly showed joy and said, "King, this is a peerless opportunity, and it should not be delayed at all. I learned about the Eight Banners system from Yuan Zhilai. This is definitely a supreme weapon for treating foreign tribes. When Yan Shuai is ready immediately, use the Eight Banners of Wuhuan, take this opportunity to pacify the Huns and Xianbei tribes in one fell swoop, and pull the entire grassland into the territory of our Great Yan, and prepare for the two sides of the future to attack Liangzhou."
Yuan Xi slowly stood up and frowned and said, "Kong Ming, Wenhe is preparing to attack Goguryeo recently. Will the battle between the two fronts be bad? And the big test is not over yet."
"The king, Master Jia is a peerless genius. It can be destroyed by just Goguryeo. As for the big test, it is even more unhindered, or so better. If both lines can succeed, then the big king can send the talents from this big test to manage. It is important to know that there are no such many official positions in the Dayan territory at present, but it is possible outside. Goguryeo and there is a vast world on the grassland. This can be used as an assessment, and secondly, they can see the strength of the Dayan. Whether it is themselves or even their family, it has a huge impact," Zhuge Liang clasped his fist again.
"Yes, once you are sent out and see all this, it is a clear proof that the king's prestige will surely become more prosperous and become a hero of the country. The people admire it. Although those big families cannot submit on the surface, they probably will really start to stand in their hearts," Jiang Wan also spoke.
Yuan Xi nodded and said, "Kong Ming, you continue to prepare for tomorrow's big test, Gong Yan, go back to the palace with the orc."
"promise!"
"King, there is another point. The battle in the grassland is not as much as the Central Plains. It does not require so much strategy. Instead, it requires a supreme general who will shock the fourth field with his great power. There are many powerful generals under the command of the king. However, according to my opinion, there are only two people who can be the peerless killing general, one of the commanders of the first legion, General Wen Chou, and one of the three rebels in the fourth legion. Zhang Fei, if the king can send one of them over, he will definitely be able to achieve miraculous results." Zhuge Liang reminded again.
