The world is chess

Chapter 166 The Count's Daughter

A few days after, Liu Zichen prepared the books Qi Yu wanted. In fact, he couldn't even talk about the preparation, but just put the dozens of books together. Because Liu Zichen could not blatantly enter the palace with dozens of account books, he could only go to Liu Zichen's mansion again to check those accounts that Qi Yu thought was equivalent to Tianshu.

"Your Majesty, all the books you want are here." Liu Zichen said, "Of course, the official position is responsible for the Qianzhuang in the capital and neighboring towns, and other Qianzhuang are managed by county-level officials."

"I know, wow, it looks like a lot. I can't finish watching it for a while." Qi Yu said, "Well, to be honest, if you write dozens of books in Arabic numerals, in fact, only one is enough."

"What number?"

"Ah, you don't have the so-called Arabic numerals here, so that all the books will be changed to Arabic numerals from today. Of course, you don't know that this Arabic numerals don't matter, because I can teach you."

"This..." Liu Zichen didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Qi Yu's gourd, but it was not easy to refuse. Moreover, to some extent, the two could almost be said to have stood on the same line in the last conversation. "Then the subordinate is not as respectful."

"I didn't expect that I still have the talent to be a teacher, hehe." Qi Yu smiled unconsciously.

Yi Chen said, "I said Qi Yu, do you think it's a glorious thing to teach others to learn Arabic numerals?"

"Well, it feels like I'm bullying others when I hear you say that. But that's true. If you use Arabic numerals, it will be much more convenient. At least these dozens of books can be compressed into one book. Qi Yu said, "I don't have much talent for witchcraft or something, but I can still apply the advanced theory of the 21st century."

"The subordinate listened attentively." Liu Zichen said.

Qi Yu casually looked through the top basic account book and said, "Your account book is so irregular that you can only pay and enter the account. How can this be?"

"What else do you need besides entering, leaving and storing?" Liu Zichen asked doubtfully, "I don't know what the account book you want is like?" Can you give a demonstration to Shimoguan?"

"I can't say this for a moment. I'll make a sample for you in a few days." Qi Yu said, "The emperor has said that the bank and treasury will be managed by me within a year, so what you need to do is to cooperate with the prince. Of course, all reforms are bound to encounter resistance. I am psychologically prepared, but I don't want the power of resistance to come from you.

As soon as Liu Zichen heard this, there was a little threat in it: "I understand, but there are some things I still need to ask the emperor."

Although Qi Yu's power cannot be underestimated, after all, it is not him who is sitting on the dragon chair now, but the somewhat gloomy Qi Xian. Therefore, Liu Zichen can't completely say that he is standing on Qi Yu's side, but that he will not wear small shoes for Qi Yu.

"Of course." Qi Yu said with a smile, "After all, the second brother is the emperor, isn't he?"

"Yes." Liu Zichen's answer is extremely firm. At this time, he must not be confused, which will cause unnecessary trouble to himself in the future. Of course, he also believes that Qi Yu will not turn against him because of this kind of thing. Everyone has their own difficulties. The only knowledge that can be done can help as much as possible within the scope of ability. If you have to do it beyond your ability, it only means that you are out of your mind.

"Lord Liu, I want to ask you something." Yi Chen, who had been listening all the time, suddenly said.

"What's the matter?"

"What if the treasury's account suddenly becomes uneven?"

"How can the account be uneven?"

Yi Chen said, "For example, if the treasury suddenly loses more than 100,000 taels of silver, will you report it truthfully? At this time, if you are smart, you should do it from the account book, right?

"No." Liu Zichen said, "In fact, I am not the sole responsibility of the treasury. In addition to me, there are four eunuchs in charge of guarding. They will count the number every day. If it is less, they will truthfully tell the emperor."

"So you are supervising each other, right?" Yi Chen asked, "Is it possible for you to unite? In this way, no one can find out that you are guarding and stealing.

"This is impossible. Those four eunuchs will never betray the emperor."

"Oh? Why?" Qi Yu was also interested, "Is it possible that there are really people in the world who don't like money and are so loyal to the emperor?"

"Ha ha, who knows." Liu Zichen said, "This is also something I can't figure out. Only the eunuchs responsible for guarding the treasury for thousands of years can be said to be truly loyal to the emperor."

"I heard that the treasury seems to have lost silver once before. Of course, you don't know about this." Qi Yu said.

"I vaguely know something about that, but it involves the court, so the former emperor did not pursue it at that time." Liu Zichen said, "Generally speaking, it is impossible to do things on the account book."

"This is interesting. So these books are actually useless. The real books are all in the emperor's psychology." Qi Yu said, "Hey, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, I'm not going to steal his money."

After talking for an hour, Qi Yu and Yi Chen left Liu Zichen's mansion. When they left, Qi Yu saw Liu Yu standing in a corner looking at him. He wanted to leave like this, but he felt that such a girl was actually quite interesting, and then walked over: "What are you hiding here? ?"

"Look at you." Liu Yu said without hesitation, "Isn't it written on your face that others are not allowed to see it?"

"Yuer, presumptuous." Liu Zichen said, "Why don't you go back to the house? It's embarrassing here."

"Dad."

Qi Yu said with a smile, "Then why are you hiding here to see me? You can come out generously. Of course, if you want to shake hands with me or something, I will agree. As for the signature or something? My calligraphy is not very good. If you don't mind, I'll sign one for you.

"I want to be your princess." Liu Yu said firmly, "I have made it clear that you haven't married, prince, not even a concubine."

"So do you want to be a princess or my wife?" Qi Yu looked at Liu Yu with a smile and found that there was a little light in his eyes as clear as water.

"Is there a difference?" Liu Yu asked sideways, but before she finished speaking, Liu Zichen pulled her away.

"Please forgive me." Liu Zichen held his daughter while not forgetting to apologize to Qi Yu.

Watching the two father and daughter leave, Qi Yu laughed: "In this era, there is such a bold girl."

"She fell in love with you." Yi Chen said.

"Isn't this obvious? In fact, sometimes I wonder if I should get a wife.

"Since you want to, it's easy to marry a wife. It's easy to get a princess under your current conditions."

"Come on, I'd rather go to Liuyan by the roadside than marry a princess." Qi Yu said, "How difficult it is for the princess to serve. If you have nothing to do, you have to move out of your mother's house. Isn't it your own fault to take a princess? Yichen, I have experience in this kind of thing. Don't care about the status of getting a wife*. How can we men rely on our own women? Therefore, the most important thing to get a wife is to be gentle and understanding.

Yi Chen said, "It seems that you like gentle women."

"Nonsense."

Walking on the wide road and looking at the endless crowds and business hawkers, Qi Yu felt that it might be a good thing to get a wife and have a baby here.

Then slowly watch your child grow up and send him to make soy sauce or something when he is free. Can't such a day be called happiness?

"You want to have a family." Yi Chen seemed to see through what Qi Yu thought and suddenly said, "You still have very important things to do. Now is not the time to get a family. Besides, if you have a child, I guess the child will definitely be raised by you."

"Don't hit me like this, I'm just thinking about it. Yichen, don't you want to get a wife? I remember you are still one year older than me.

"I don't want to."

"Eh? Don't want to?" Qi Yu asked in surprise, "Is it possible that you have a peach love?"

"No, no, no, don't misunderstand. I just don't want to get a wife. Maybe I haven't met the girl I like yet. Yi Chen said, "Well, frankly, when I went to England on a mission at the age of six, I fell in love with a count's daughter."

"Wow, I can't see it." Qi Yu said, "You still have this past, tut, what happened later? Have you had any follow-up with her?

"What about the follow-up development? Then I killed the count. Do you think there may be follow-up development? Yi Chen said, "But I really like her turquoise eyes. They are very beautiful."

"Ha ha, then you can find a goblin. In this world, the eyes of goblins are green.

"I won't talk to you." Yi Chen said, "I guess your next step for Britain is to seize the military power."

"Smart, but it's not the right time. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

"Then when are you going to seize the military power? After all, this war does not depend on money alone. The key is military power.

"Of course, my power must infiltrate the whole state of Qi before seizing military power." Qi Yu said, "Of course, the best way is to kill Qi Xian, and it will be gone. However, what I want is not the State of Qi, but the whole world, so let him sit in that seat for the time being. At least he is also my brother, don't you think?

"Okay. So where are we going now? Is it just wandering aimlessly on the street like this?

"It's not a bad thing to wander around. It's also a blessing to be able to walk on the street so leisurely." Qi Yu said, "Oh, I almost forgot what you said. I made an appointment with Lan girl in Chunxiangyuan."

"What kind of spring incense courtyard, girl Lan?"

Chunxiangyuan.

Send to the welcoming place, there are many beautiful women standing outside the exquisite building. As soon as Qi Yu and Yi Chen walked in, several fragrant pink butterflies surrounded them.

"Isn't this the prince? Why did you want to come here today?

"Do you still need to ask? The prince must have come to see Miss Lan. One of the women said softly, "Master, please come inside. Miss Lan has been waiting for you for many days, and she is about to cry."

"Yo, this young man looks extraordinary." Another woman saw that Yichen was a strange face, but from the point of view of her clothes, she was either rich or noble. Then she greeted him and said with a smile, "Is this the first time to come? The women in our spring fragrance courtyard are as gentle as water.

"Uh..." Yi Chen stepped back a few steps and said, "Qi Yu, let's go back."

"How boring is it to go back?" Qi Yu said, "Those maids of honor can see what they can't eat, it's better here. Hey, let me tell you, my brother is still the same so far. Who can let him taste what a spring night is worth a thousand dollars today? I will reward 1,000 taels of silver."

As soon as Qi Yu said this, all the women rushed to Yi Chen, and Yi Chen scolded Qi Yu with hatred. Then a light leap flashed out of the encirclement of those women.

"Hey, Qi Yu, don't make such an international joke." Yi Chen took a few steps in.

"I'm not kidding."

In the chic elegant room, a Lan girl in a long purple dress picked up the pipa and sang after making tea for Qi Yu and Yi Chen.

The words are like beads, and the sound is emotional.

I heard that Qi Yu could only describe it as three days around the beam. Of course, Yi Chen had no feeling about it and could only look at the furnishings of the room boredly.

Qu Bi, Miss Lan said softly, "Your Majesty, why are you free to come to me today? Who is this?

"Oh, he is my friend, Yi Chen."

"Euzi..."

Before Miss Lan finished speaking, Yi Chen said, "No, don't call me a prince. I got goose bumps. You'd better call me Yi Chen."

Miss Lan didn't push it and said directly, "Yi Chen? That's a good name."

"Ye." Yi Chen nodded and responded, "Qi Yu, what is your relationship with her?"

"Hey, what can men and women have?"

"Hm?"

"I'm going to make her a princess. What do you think?" Qi Yu said, "I have thought that the child can not be born for the time being, but this wife is a must."

Yichen looked at Miss Lan. She was not beautiful, but her appearance was also beautiful. Judging from her behavior, she should be the kind of gentle woman Qi Yu likes: "It meets your standards and looks very gentle."

"I have a good vision, Yi Chen. If you like any girl here, tell me, and I'll help you be a matchmaker." Qi Yu said.

"Yes, Yi Chen, if you like any girl, I will tell you that the girls here are as gentle as water." Miss Lan said, "Not only that, she is also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I'm sure you like it."

"Can you play the violin?" Yi Chen asked.

"Hm?" Miss Lan asked, "Violin?"

"Come on, where's the violin." Qi Yu said, "There is no violin in this world."

"Yes." Miss Lan said, "There is really a girl who can play the violin in this spring courtyard, but..."

"Just what?" Yi Chen asked, "Is there really a girl who can play the violin here?"

"Yes." Miss Lan said, "It's just that the girl looks strange and has been locked in the room, usually sitting in the room playing the piano. I once secretly talked to her. She told me that it was called a violin. She had played it for many years and had a beautiful voice, but in recent years, the piano had broken down, so she didn't play it much.

"Oh? Then I'll see you." Qi Yu asked, "Can we meet the girl who can play the violin?"

"Of course." Miss Lan said, "Come with me. Aunt Hong is not here today. The key to this room is in my hand. You are so lucky."

"Eh? Did you lock her up?" Qi Yu asked.

"Yes, yes." Miss Lan said, "Although she is a little strange, Aunt Hong may have a fancy to her, so she has been letting her stay in Chunxiang Courtyard. At first, she ran away, but she was chased back every time, so she was locked up.

Follow Miss Lan to the innermost room. After opening the door, Qi Yu saw a girl lying on the table and writing something. But the first thing that came into sight was her long pale blonde hair, casually draped over her shoulders, and her white side face was as smooth as gel.

"Kirin?" Qi Yu subconsciously thought of Liansheng, but it didn't seem to be.

"What a unicorn? That's obviously a foreigner." Yi Chen said and walked over, and the woman who was painting also raised her head.

In an instant, Yi Chen seemed to think of that Christmas.

The blonde girl holding the doll watched her father fall into the snow, and the originator of everything was Yichen, who was only six years old.

"Are you, Shirley?" Yichen subconsciously blurted out a name.

Shirley raised his head and looked at Yi Chen with green eyes. He seemed unable to understand why the man in front of him knew his name. After thinking for a long time, Shirley smiled: "Is that you? Is it really you? Joey."

"It's me, Shirley, why are you here?"

"I, I don't know." Shirley said, "After my father died, I lived with my grandfather. Once I got lost, and I don't know how I got here. Joey, how can you be here? Where the hell is this?"

"This is..." Yichen thought for a long time and didn't know how to explain it. "This is..."

"This is Qi." Qi Yu said, "You have been to another country."

"Qi?" Shirley asked, "So how can I return to England?" I asked many people and they said they didn't know Britain. How can it be so backward here?

"Shirley, this is far away from England, and we can't go back for the time being." Yi Chen said.

"Why? No matter how far it is, you just need to take a plane. Shelley said, "But there are no planes in this world."

"Yes, there are no planes in this world." Yi Chen said, "In fact, we have arrived in another time and space."

"Another time and space?" Shirley said, "Well, since Joey said so, I believe this is another world. But why did we get here? Did you also come here because you got lost?

"This explanation is a little complicated. Anyway, you just need to know that you are not alone from now on." Yi Chen said, "What are you doing here?"
