Chapter 194 Qiu Si
Chapter 94 Qiu Si
The eldest princess holds the military power, and her status in the court can be imagined. In the martial arts school, the eldest princess is the biggest one. Now, Han Ruoli actually rushed to "fight" the eldest princess in front of everyone in front of the court. Li Lingmin was secretly shocked and thought to himself: Han Ruoli is indeed a stupid boy who is not afraid of heaven and earth. From the stone The monkey popped out of the head seam, right?
Han Ruoli doesn't think so, because Han Ruoli feels that his wisdom is enough here.
The eldest princess walked to Han Ruoli, circled around Han Ruoli, and asked, "Are you sure you are reading through military books?"
Han Ruoli said disdainfully, "What does the eldest princess want to know?"
The eldest princess asked, "Since you said you read through military books, I will ask you the simplest way to improve our army's combat effectiveness on the battlefield? How to defeat all the battles with one against ten?
Han Ruoli did not speak in a hurry. He was just looking at the eldest princess and looking directly into the eyes of the eldest princess. The eldest princess had never seen such a pair of magical eyes, as if she was seen by Han Ruoli as a kind of suffering. She asked harshly, "What can you do?"
Han Ruoli said, "Princess, how can you improve your combat effectiveness and how can you make one against ten?"
"Presumptuous!" The eldest princess said harshly, "Am I asking you, or are you asking me?"
How smart Han Ruoli is. Such a question can't be returned first, because the person who comes back first always answers one-sidedly. Han Ruoli can say a lot of ways to improve the combat effectiveness of the army with her eyes closed, so she wants the eldest princess to speak first.
The eldest princess was angry, but Han Ruoli was careless and said, "I know that the eldest princess has a clever plan, so I want to hear what the eldest princess said."
The eldest princess said confidently, "If I say it, what else will you say?"
Han Ruoli said, "If the eldest princess says the way I think, I am willing to be punished. Please correct yourself, and ask the Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty to testify. I am willing to be punished by the eldest princess."
Everyone is against themselves. A man who looks young is so wildly talking, waiting to see a joke. A trace of light flashed in Her Majesty's eyes and said, "Qingmin, just say it and say everything you said to me the other day."
Yes! Mother and Emperor." Li Qingmin said, "To improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, we need to use the best weapons and the best horses. Only with invincible blades and shields that block everything, coupled with good horses in the Western Regions, can we be invincible and fight against ten."
Everyone heard this and flatteringly. A minister who agreed said, "What the great princess said is that the treasury should take out a large amount of military pay to supplement the armament."
Another minister said, "The country can't live without soldiers for a day. Our army is far better equipped with armor than the enemy. The enemy will definitely retreat and escape after seeing the difficulties."
The eldest princess looked at Han Ruoli and asked, "Are you convinced?"
Han Ruoli said, "I'm very unconvinced. Uplifting armaments is just a means."
The eldest princess was still unconvinced and asked, "The enemy's crossbow can have a range of ten feet, and our crossbow can shoot 20 feet. Which one will win?"
Han Ruoli avoided this question and said, "If I were an army general, I would accompany me to sleep in the wilderness and march together to fight. When I kill the enemy, I will rush to the front. When I retreat, I will walk to the end. I want to tell my soldiers why they fight and let them understand. Guarding the battlefield at the border is the most proud thing. I am unarmed. I will take them to grab the enemy's equipment. Without a horse, I will cut off the other party's horse's legs. In the evening, we will sing the songs of our hometown, and in the morning we will defeat the enemy together on the battlefield. Enter, let's go together! Return, let's retreat together! I will not abandon any of them, and I will tell them that the country will survive with them.
Han Ruoli's impassioned speech was immediately opposed by others. A female minister who flattered the princess said, "A group of nonsense, nonsense..."
The eldest princess's face was pale and interrupted the man's words. Looking at Han Ruoli, there was some admiration in her eyes. Li Qingmin often asked her subordinates to lead the soldiers to fight at the front, but she had never been to the real battlefield, and she had never done any psychological counseling to the soldiers, but she knew that the military books What is the so-called morale?
The queen's eyes looking at Han Ruoli have also changed a little, and the boy standing below seems to have something extraordinary. The queen gave the second princess a winp, and the second princess was the first minister of Wen, which could be called the official position of prime minister.
The second princess asked, "Mr. Han, let me ask you, the Persian messenger came to visit and sent 10,000 taels of gold. How should we return the gift?"
This problem has troubled Her Majesty for a long time. Persian messengers sent not only 10,000 taels of gold, but also all precious treasures, pearls and emeralds. The queen has been thinking about how to return the gift, and the Persian messenger is still waiting here to return the gift.
Han Ruoli looked around the hall and found a row of flower pots in front of the queen's seat, and the flowers inside were in full bloom and very delicate. Han Ruoli stepped forward, picked up a pot of flowers and said, "Persia definitely doesn't have such a beautiful flower. Send this pot back."
The ministers were all surprised. Did the other party come to buy a pot of flowers? In fact, everyone knows what the Persians mean. Many towns handed over between Persia and China were bought by the Persian king. Now the queen is afraid of others to give gifts.
The second princess said, "Mr. Han, are you kidding? Just give the other party a pot of flowers?
Han Ruoli said, "What kind of flower is this? This flower is the queen's favorite. She looks at it in front of her every day. This flower is still worshipped by the ministers of the heavenly dynasty day by day. Do you think, which flower is better than that 10,000 taels of gold?
Everyone stopped talking. Han Ruoli continued to hit the iron while it was hot, "There is no free lunch in the world. Since the Persian messenger has sent it, we will return it, but we absolutely can't do a loss-making business."
About the topic of the Persian messenger, the queen just asked the champion a few days ago, and the champion said confidently, "I am rich in the world. The Persian messenger is nothing more than a land city. It's better to give them a small border town as a return gift... When we have money to supplement the military pay, we will kill them back. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?
This simple principle is well known by the literary and martial arts of the imperial court, but the queen does not want this. He hopes that the people of the country will live and work in peace and contentment. After all, it is not easy to be an empress. That's stupid. The queen was so disappointed that the same champion could say such a thing.
Li Lingmin was too satisfied with Han Ruoli's answer and even a little excited. He said, "Your Majesty, are you satisfied with Mr. Han's answer?"
The queen has long been used to being happy and angry, silent and nodding. The ministers in the court began to talk about it, and there was a little quarrel for a while.
Han Ruoli stood there and looked directly at the queen. The queen looked at Han Ruoli condescendingly. For some reason, Han Ruoli felt that the queen had an extra temperament that should not have...
The discussion of the crowd stopped, and then the queen said, "University scholar, come up with two questions to test Mr. Han."
Yes! Old Chen followed the order. The university scholar walked to Han Ruoli and said to Han Ruoli, "Mr. Han, please look back behind you."
Han Ruoli turned his head, and other people also turned their heads to look over. They saw a huge painting hanging on the wall behind him. The university scholar said, "This painting is unknown and is from the hands of the Holy Lord. So far, no one can name him. I don't know what Mr. Han thinks after looking at it."
Han Ruoli took a look at the canvas. It is about ten meters long from east to south to north, and about three meters wide. It must have taken a lot of effort to draw such a huge painting.
When the queen saw that everyone was looking at the painting, she said, "I painted this painting when I was young. It has been 30 years, and no one has named this painting so far."
Han Ruoli scolded in his heart, who dares to inscription the emperor's painting? This is him. Mom's bachelor is cheating himself here. If he doesn't speak well, he will definitely be caught.
The university scholar looked at Han Ruoli with a smile, but Han Ruoli stared at the picture. Han Ruoli did not believe that the painting was painted by the queen, because the queen did not have such a state of mind. She could not draw such a picture. Han Ruoli has always believed in her feelings, but the queen said that she drew it, and Han Ruoli could not expose it face to face. Besides, this is all my own guess.
The red sunset hangs on the top of the mountain, the tired traveler leads the thin horse, and behind him is a faint unforgiving path, and there is an endless path in front of it... The breath of tired birds is on the branches... The person who can draw this picture is definitely not a queen who can be superior.
Han Ruoli not only has to name it, but also has to write poems and whispers, "The dead vines, old trees and faint crows, small bridges and flowing rivers, ancient roads and west winds thin horses, and broken-hearted people are on the horizon."
The queen suddenly stood up from the throne and looked at Han Ruoli with an incredible face. The queen's sudden action shocked everyone. Everyone didn't know what had happened. They all turned around and looked at the queen tremblingly.
The queen said in a trembling voice, "You... say it again."
Han Ruoli looked into the queen's eyes and said, "The dead vine old tree faint crow, the small bridge flowing water family, the ancient road west wind thin horse, broken heart people in the world."
The queen sat on the chair with her buttocks and muttered, "What a 'broken-hearted person in the world', what a 'broken-hearted person in the world'."
The old eunuch asked carefully, "Your Majesty, are you all right?"
The queen waved her hand and said, "Retired! Retreat! Come and take Han Ruoli to see me in Ruan Palace.
The old eunuch shouted in a shrill voice: "Regress-Chao."
Everyone doesn't understand why the queen did such a move, but Han Ruoli seems to have guessed something. Han Ruoli has a kind of innate insight that animal thinking can be seen clearly, not to mention human beings?
The queen is a woman. A woman in her forties is always a little beautiful, not to mention a queen? Han Ruoli stood in the Ru'an Palace and waited for the queen to come out. This time, the queen seemed to have forgotten to show her and soon met Han Ruoli. Han Ruoli still did not kneel down to say hello. In the future, he did not intend to kneel down. The queen didn't seem to care about these. She looked at Han Ruoli several times before asking, "You know me what What made you come?"
"I don't know." Han Ruoli said this, but he had already guessed one or two in his heart. Through the queen's expression just now, he felt that he could guess correctly.
The queen asked, "Have you seen this painting before?"
Han Ruoli shook his head, "I have been to the Jinluan Hall in the future. Of course, I have never seen this painting." From this question, Han Ruoli got another piece of information, that is, this painting may not be just like this. If this painting is really painted by the Empress, then there is really such a thing in the world. Even if you want to copy something in the Jinluan Hall, it is not so easy.
"Then why did you think of the phrase 'broken people are on the horizon'?"
Han Ruoli was stunned for a moment. When he saw the painting, he thought of Ma Zhiyuan's Qiu Si. He just recited it according to Ma Zhiyuan's words. Now the queen actually asked why she thought of 'broken-hearted people at the end of the world', which made Han Ruoli difficult, but Han Ruoli absolutely did not need to make a draft to lie, even if the opposite Queen, he still wants to lie.
"What the person in the painting leaves behind is a house, and there is a house behind him. Naturally, he chooses to leave his hometown and lead a horse instead of riding a horse, which shows that the man does not want to walk too fast. The sunset also represents dusk. People are dead, withered vines and old trees, and depression. The painter is obviously dead..."
The queen's face turned pale. She was secretly asking herself, was she wrong?
