"I can't drink it anymore in the future. How can the thinker's brain be wasted by alcohol?"

When Li Su woke up the next day, she felt that the headache was not resolved. Before she opened her eyes, she secretly complained in her heart.

Every time I talk and discuss, once I think of any theories that shock the world and the earth, I will be dragged by the emperor or colleagues to celebrate with great joy, and I can't stand it.

Fortunately, as the prime minister, some people moved home when they were drunk, and at least they woke up every day and were still in their own bed.

Li Su relaxed his mind, tightened his hands, and realized that his arms were being pressed. Before he got up, the women next to him noticed that he had been working, and had already gotten up and waited for him to change clothes and wash.

I drank too much last night, and of course I had no spare time to do anything else, so the concubines at home were just serving him to rest and prevent him from vomiting after drinking.

This is also the rule of the Li family for many years. Anyone who is drunk must take turns to stay at night to accompany him. Beware of the fact that the person who vomits does not wake up in time, which leads to inhalation pneumonia.

"As the prime minister, I really work hard on state affairs every day. I made some great contributions yesterday, and let Your Majesty drink like this. When the lady sent us to pick up people, Concubine Zhen also said that Your Majesty also drank a lot."

Zhou Ying served Li Su Shukou with heartache, complaining.

How much credit did you make? Is it a little more refinement of the philosophies of various schools of thought?

After Li Su felt his throat and nose feel relaxed, she breathed a long sigh and ordered Zhou Ying and Ohashi: "Help me to the wife's room, but her legs are still weak."

Li Su has not been in Cai Yan's house much in the past two months. The couple slept in separate rooms. Of course, this has nothing to do with their relationship, and it is purely for Cai Yan to maintain health.

Because more than two months ago, Li Su's second son was born - it was in the second half of last year that Cai Yan became pregnant with that person. When Li Su returned to Chang'an and was named Prime Minister, Cai Yan's body was inconvenient to move, so she did not bring Cai Yan, but Zhen Mi.

Li Su actually didn't care much about whether his wife had a second son. But he knew that Cai Yong's duke of Chenliu County needed a grandson who followed his mother's surname to inherit it.

If Cai Yan can't give birth to a son this time, she will have to suffer more in the future. Fortunately, she will have a successful birth, which can be considered as a relief from the pain.

Li Su was also very straightforward. When he gave his second son a nickname, he directly asked his surname to Cai. As for Daming, he would choose it in a few years.

In ancient times, women had only a few months of confinement after giving birth. But Li Su hoped that his wife would take a break and take good care of her health, so he decided not to touch her for half a year and then arrange some scientific rehabilitation training for his wife.

Of course, this is definitely not for Li Su himself. Li Su is not short of female sex now. He sincerely hopes that his wives and concubines will not look haggard after giving birth for a long time.

It's nothing that Cai Yan is temporarily separated, but recently, Zhen Mi has become pregnant and has to take care of herself, which is why Li Su only serves Zhou Ying and Daqiao every day.

In fact, it is normal to think about it. When Li Su returned to Chang'an last winter, he took Zhen Mi with him. There were no other women in a row for several months, so it was not surprising that he was caught.

Zhen Mi was infected in spring, and now it is almost seven months in September. I think it is actually quite guilty. After all, by the time of birth, Zhen Mi was still a few months away from being 18 years old. I hope it will not cause any health burden.

Now Li Su has a eldest daughter who is six and a half years old, a son who is four and a half years old, and a second son who is two months old. There is also an unknown person who has not given birth to it.

At this moment, Li Su proposed to go to Cai Yan's house. Zhou Ying subconsciously thought that Li Su was suddenly interested in favor of her wife and concubine, and hurriedly reminded him:

"My husband once said... If the husband has a temporary intention within half a year, if he forgets for a while, he will ask his concubine and others to remind him. I have no other intention."

Li Su was stunned and couldn't help but smile: "Where did you want to go? There is no such thing as promising lewdness in the morning. I am thinking of some of the official duties left over last night, and I may have to worry about my wife."

Li Sudu has become the prime minister. Doesn’t he understand the office procedures of the court? Liu Bei will not let go of the things he talked to Liu Bei last night. He will definitely form a written document to represent the official ideology.

Li Su was awesome when he argued nonsense, but he still had the time to write an article, but he still had to be ignorant. The main reason was that the localization of the argument was not solid, so he needed his wife or father-in-law to help.

Zhou Ying and Daqiao were relieved and helped Li Su to Cai Yan's house.

...

Cai Yan has lived alone for two months, and every day he just chats with her husband during dinner.

At this moment, she was bored reading books in the house. She didn't like sports very much. Even if her husband asked her maid to teach her to assist her in exercise, she would still be lazy if she could be lazy. She would rather read books occasionally.

Of course, Cai Yan's physique cannot gain weight no matter how lazy she is, because the calorie consumption and metabolism of her brain power are too large. Laziness will only lead to her weak muscles and weak body.

Seeing Li Su accidentally come to her bedroom, Cai Yan was still a little surprised: Didn’t your husband agree not to enter the bedroom for half a year and go to the study to discuss something? Could it be...

Li Su was embarrassed at first, afraid that his wife would work hard, so she pretended to wander around for a few steps, secretly looked at the things on the table, and found that it was a book called "Ideal Country". Li Su was relieved and no longer felt guilty.

Sure enough, she was still secretly reading books when she asked her wife to do something! Then it would not be considered a slap in her wife. Anyway, she was too idle to stay and had to read books!

Cai Yan was slightly uneasy, and was worried that her husband would find out that she was secretly reading a book, so she would criticize her for not having a good rest.

"I'm bored every day, those who strengthen their bodies are so tiring." Cai Yan secretly hid "The Ideal Country" into his sleeve.

Li Su smiled and said, "It's a good thing to read books in moderation, so how can you blame your wife? If you're really bored, let's lift the ban from today. Mrs. Xu writes and paints. Aqiao, you won't give her pens, ink, paper and inkstone to her wife's house."

Li Su said half of the next sentence to Daqiao. Cai Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Li Sushi sat down and discussed with Cai Yan with a slutty face: "There is an article that you want to work as a lady. The name has been written, and it is called "Confucianism and Laws".

Recently, I suddenly wanted to write an article that distinguished Mencius's "compassionate, shameful, and hateful words to let right and wrong", Xunzi's "nature is unfair and cannot beautify himself", and even Han Fei's "compared with morality in ancient times and competed with strength in today', each pointing out the shortcomings and misunderstandings.

But our theories and opinions are too independent, lack arguments, and they are not well-written. We had to help us use the arguments cited by the Western Rong (Greece) and add more modifications to the content, and by the way, they are beautiful and consistent with their quality."

If you have no words, you will not go far.

It is okay to convince Liu Bei privately, but it is still not enough to pass on it forever. You have to think carefully. Be gentle and gentlemanly.

Cai Yan thought for a while, then realized that he had been used again and resisted coquettishly: "Okay, you brag about your Majesty at the banquet yesterday and said something irrelevant. You want me to get you back?"

Li Su whispered in her ear: "Madam helps you this time, I will reward you for not taking concubines again in the future."

Cai Yan pushed Li Su away, and his mouth was still very hard: "You didn't want to take a concubine anymore! Can you have a more beautiful woman to accept for you?

But... that thing is really interesting and worth a book. Tell me, why did you brag last night."

Li Su said his point of view again.

Cai Yan shook his head when he heard this: "There are too many! It is not conducive to educating the world. Why do you quote so many Aristotle? Do you still need ordinary scholars who are not as good as doctors to read so many things to read your "Confucianism, Law, and Lunheng"? There are obviously more specious pre-Qin philosophers who can use the remarks of..."

Cai Yan was shocked in her heart: her husband really had something in his mind, and he could pick up such things at will, but it was a pity that his words were not elegant enough.

Li Su hurriedly gave up: "Mrs. Just say that, then the wife will punish the department for this matter."

Li Su directly threw the "localization transformation" work to his wife.

"Come back for me! I haven't asked clearly yet! Here, here, how did you think of it..."

Cai Yan grabbed it and soon entered the defense work state.

...

After that, Li Su really spent two or three days explaining to his wife about writing a book, and also asked questions and answered questions in advance, blocking the unconsistent areas.

Then, Li Su finally shook her hands away and could return to the original work rhythm.

At the same time, during the past three days, Liu Bei, who had just arrived in Luoyang, also arranged the military service deployment that he asked Li Su for advice that day.

Liu Bei's instructions to combat troops in Hanoi and Bingzhou directions were roughly as follows:

First of all, Guan Yu had always been the commander of Hedong and Bingzhou troops, but at the end of last year, he changed the defense zone with Zhang Fei for a series of defensive counterattacks such as the Battle of Kunyang.

Now Zhang Fei has gone deep into Youzhou, Bingzhou and Hedong, and the troops in Henoi have become empty again. Only the necessary troops needed to maintain the defensive situation and divide the troops to guard the dangerous passes are not enough to launch a counterattack. Therefore, Liu Bei urgently transferred Guan Yu from Nanyang back to Hanoi. As for the troops, he could draw less.

It is enough to leave Gao Shun in Nanyang. Over the years, Gao Shun has already learned to be a famous general and can stand on his own. Even if he wants to launch an attack after the spring plow next year, he can still do it.

At the same time, Liu Bei's order to Guan Yu and others was to act at the right time. If there is indeed a flaw in the enemy's weak force, then attack decisively, but the principle of "occupying the danger" should be based on the principle.

That is to say, don’t go deep into the deep hinterland of the Jizhou Plain and occupy cities that may form lonely and overhanging protrusions, but still make full use of the Taihang Mountains and other geographical advantages.

To give the simplest example, Yuan Shang was not completely unprepared to the west of Yecheng. There was Yingzhai Pass in Huguan Xing, and the exit from the Taihang Mountains to the Hebei Plain was still in the hands of the Yuan family.

Similarly, not all the counties recovered by Liu Bei's army before were obtained. The dangerous counties on the remnants of the Heishan Mountains such as Ji County (now Xinxiang), Weihui, have been stuck by Yuan Shang or Cao Cao. The reason why Liu Bei was unable to directly attack the Wei County where Yecheng was located from Hanoi was that these dangers in the Heishan Mountains were also a major problem.

If Guan Yu wants to take action, he will first cut off all the periphery obstacles. At the same time, he must show a clear diplomatic attitude in the process: Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are both traitors, so we are going to fight against traitors. At any time, there will be no unite with one traitor to attack another traitor.

Even if Yuan Shang held his last breath and surrendered to Cao Cao in advance, it didn’t matter to Liu Bei. At worst, you can go together. Let’s not have these small gains this winter!

If you don’t negotiate or make promises, if you encounter someone, you will beat yourself up for the country and beat yourself up. It has nothing to do with the internal strife of Yuan and Cao.

This posture and the commanding heights of righteousness must be occupied. If you can make a little land, you can make some of it. We don’t have to worry.

After explaining all this clearly, Liu Bei felt relieved. The generals were worried about the specific opportunities they were looking for on the front line, and he just needed to grasp the program.

...

Afterwards, Liu Bei took a break from his busy schedule and took advantage of the past few days to patrol the palace and Luoyang City. Luoyang City is so big that it took more than three days to go through the palace alone.

Liu Bei was very satisfied with the palace and the city appearance. He knew that this was one of the political achievements of Li Su and Zhuge Liang's disciples over the past two years.

Because there are still too many new things that have not been finished, and knowing that Li Su is busy with official ideology, Liu Bei is not in a hurry, and he doesn't plan to expand his military service in winter anyway.

After inspecting the palace, Liu Bei spent two days inspecting Luoyang New District east of Yanshi.

The expansion of the new district went smoothly, and this year the first batch of settlers from the business community had been moved to buy property.

Mainly they are factory owners from all walks of life, especially those in hydraulic rice milling, wood processing, textile industries, and merchants doing transportation and trade.

There is also the local agricultural estate owners who provide life support services to these large factory owners and businessmen. As for other personnel, they can just move according to the plan in the future.

Many slums and dirty handicraft workshop areas in the old city of Luoyang were completely vacant, and they were demolished and rebuilt and re-planned public facilities. The city looks fresh and is ready to welcome all officials to re-emerge.

In the past two years, Li Su and Zhuge Liang have been around Luoyang, mainly four daily civil affairs work. In addition to building cities and new districts, only digging canals, creating new tribute colleges and organizing imperial examinations, and then continuing to advance the national debts for war.

Now that September is halfway through, the new city is progressing smoothly.

In terms of Nanyang Canal, it was originally planned that the early summer slack season will be completely repaired after the spring plow next year, but in fact, the construction period has been accelerated and it is also a good news to strive to repair it this winter.

The reason for speeding up is also due to Cao Cao's gift. When he launched the Battle of Kunyang at the end of last year, he was pushed back by Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang and seized a large number of military supplies and grain reserves from the forward bases in Dingling, Xiangcheng and other places.

Zhuge Liang's construction workers in Kunyang had a small part of the grain supply that could be supported by Cao Cao, the transportation team leader, so they could naturally mobilize more personnel and redeploy and adjust the construction plan. This was only two months' construction period.

It was equivalent to Cao Cao levying heavily for high tax rates to farm, but the food he obtained helped Liu Bei build the canal.

After next spring plowing, the main force of the middle road starting from Nanyang County, Jingzhou will not worry about logistics supply issues and go straight to the Yuzhou Plain.

As for this year's Beichang imperial examination, the day of the exam has not arrived yet, but it is also soon. The hardware and system preparation work is very sufficient, and I believe everything will go smoothly, so there is no need to repeat it.

The new Luoyang Gongyuan, which was rebuilt in the Biguiyuan site, has built the examination room and number room, and the basic living facilities are OK. The area where candidates bath and change their clothes has only been repaired for the shower function.

As for other high-end guarantees, it will take about one or two years.

This cannot be considered slow. Originally, Emperor Caracala in Rome had been repairing the Caracala bathroom for six years. Li Su could complete it in three or four years, which has been accelerated. Now it is only the second year.

This can already be regarded as the "speed of the Han Dynasty", demonstrating that the Han Dynasty's national mobilization and dispatching power exceeded that of Rome.

In addition, the final "Zhangwu Four Years Industrial and Commercial Tax Bond Subscription" was a bit of a small twist, but it is said that it has been overcome recently, and Liu Bei is planning to have time to learn more about it.
