Li Xuan was a little confused by General Xue's sudden question, and subconsciously recalled what happened before.
After all the princes and generals' disciples had gone to school, he was the only one left in the empty hall by General Xue, struggling to read books on war. He could only go back after understanding the meaning of each sentence.
Every time he takes an exam with everyone in the school, his questions are always much more difficult than others.
When he was fighting with King Shu and others, he and several generals were laughing and watching the fun...
Thinking about it this way, General Xue's treatment of him before was actually quite okay?
He sighed and said with great disbelief: "Thanks to General Xue for taking care of me, Li Xuan will bear it in my heart."
Old General Xue obviously did not hear the emotion in his tone. He laughed twice, looked at him again and said: "Look, you and that boy Li are still young after all, and have never been on the battlefield. Although you can write
It is not easy to produce such a military book, but there must be many flaws in it... How about this? Let me take this military book back and help you correct it. I don't want any reward. When the time comes, I will just add something at the end.
My name is enough, what do you think?"
"Fart! Old Man Xue, you are so shameless!" Before Li Xuan could answer, the red-faced general's voice came from behind. He looked at Old General Xue with disdain and said, "Such a masterpiece is also
Can you correct it?"
General Xue's face darkened, and he forgot that Emperor Jing was still there for a moment, and said angrily: "Ma, stop talking nonsense, do you dare to go out and have a fight with me!"
It is the truth that generals have always followed. This time, the red-faced general ignored Old General Xue and said, "Old General Xue is shameless. I don't need to take him seriously. I remember that His Highness was tortured by him back then."
Very miserable..."
Li Xuan nodded in agreement, but saw excitement on the face of the old general Ma. He looked at him and said: "Your Highness, you still remember that I hugged you when you were young! Once
You fought with the King of Shu, and it was me who helped you out..."
"What does General Ma mean..." Li Xuan asked tentatively.
The red-faced general waved his hand and said: "I will correct this book of war for you!"
…
…
"Old Man Xue, in order to leave your name in this book, you even gave up your face. Are you ashamed or not?"
"Oh, Ma, you still have the nerve to say that, if you want to say it's shameless, if you call me second, who dares to call me number one?"
"You two shameless guys, stop fighting. The two of you are over a hundred years old together. You actually want to take advantage of two juniors. I just want to say this - can you add me?"
Seeing several veterans in the palace fighting over a book of war, they would have started fighting if he hadn't been there. Emperor Jing rubbed his brows helplessly, was there really something strange about that book of war?
"Veteran generals, stop arguing..." Li Xuan began to regret a little, why he didn't find a private occasion to take out this book, and hurriedly said: "This book, this book..., most of them are from Chang'an County
If the generals want to make corrections to Uncle Bo's credit, they still need his approval."
Anyway, Li Yi is not here now, so leaving this problem to him for the time being is the best solution.
After arguing and arguing, the real master was not here. Several veteran generals gradually stopped arguing. They turned around and saw Emperor Jing. After being stunned, they immediately said: "I have violated the rules of conduct before you. I hope your majesty will forgive me!"
Emperor Jing waved his hand, not minding this matter. Anyway, they had failed to behave before the emperor more than ten or twenty times, and said: "What do you think of this book?"
"Wonderful!" Old General Xue said loudly.
"Exquisite!" the red-faced old general added.
"I can honestly say that the significance of this military book far exceeds all existing military books in our country. If the people of Qi have never seen such a military book, it can have miraculous effects on the battlefield." Several generals said seriously.
Emperor Jing looked at Li Xuan and asked suspiciously: "This book of war - was it really written by you and Li Yi?"
"It was a noon a few days ago. It was hotter than usual. That day, County Uncle Li and I were drinking and talking, and accidentally talked about the art of war..." Li Xuan spent half an hour describing it concisely.
How did this unique book come into being? He added at the end: "Of course most of them were written by Li Yi. I just played an important role."
His role is indeed very important. If he hadn't pointed out that typo, this book that could be passed down to future generations would have had flaws that are difficult to erase. It would be a pity.
Li Xuan nodded and said in his heart.
"This book hasn't been named yet?" General Xue frowned.
"That's not true..." Li Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, let's call it "Li Zi's Art of War"."
"Plum?"
After Emperor Jing was stunned, he rubbed his eyebrows again. Several veterans had black lines on their faces. Do they really think that a county son or a heir apparent can be called "son"?
Throughout the ages, how many people can be called "zi"?
Not to mention that Li Yi has now become a county uncle, even if he becomes a county marquis or county magistrate, it is impossible for him to be called such...
Not long after, Li Xuan walked out of the Li Zheng Palace with relief. General Xue sighed and said: "I have long said that it is most suitable for that boy to join the Ministry of War. It's a pity, it's a pity..."
Emperor Jing shook his head and said: "With the talents he has shown so far, which one of the three provinces and six departments cannot be admitted? But he just wants to be an idle lord. If he has no intention, it will be useless even if I force him...
"
Old General Xue said quickly: "Little Li's temperament is a bit lazy, but at critical moments, he can always stand up and share your Majesty's worries. This shows that he is sincere to Your Majesty and to our country, Jingguo."
"Sincerity?" Emperor Jing almost couldn't help but tell General Xue what conditions he had used in exchange for him to come forward...
No longer thinking about this matter, Emperor Jing asked again: "Have all arrangements been made for tomorrow's competition?"
"If it's just a competition between young people, a few generals and disciples can do it." Old General Xue said: "If they can't pass the exam, they will all be good players if they fight bravely."
The people of Qi limited the martial arts test to young heroes, which meant that they could not compete in battle formations or martial arts competitions. Of course, the masters in the palace were also restricted, but there was no need to worry about this last one.
There are no general disciples, and there are many young masters gathered in the palace. No matter what, it is impossible for the people of Qi to win that battle.
Emperor Jing nodded and looked outside the palace.
After the last military test ended, the envoys of Qi State no longer had any chance to win successive battles with Qi State. This was a grand event that had not been seen in decades. At this point, the morale of the people of Jing State was bound to be greatly boosted.
If he could eliminate this threat to Jingguo during his lifetime, he would really have no regrets.
Honglu Temple, the courtyard where the envoys of the State of Qi lived.
The young man looked defeated, and the faces of several envoys staying in Beijing were equally unhappy.
A middle-aged man wearing a blue robe looked gloomy and said: "We have already lost the literary test, and we have also lost one in the martial arts test. We can only win the next one, not lose!"
An envoy reminded: "Don't forget that this is the Imperial City of Jingguo. There are many masters in the palace. How can we win the next game...?"
A trace of sinisterness appeared on the face of the man in blue robe, and he said: "Don't worry, this matter has already been arranged when the third prince leaves..."
