Chapter 169

First army commander?

Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled, lowered his head and replied respectfully: "I am just a scholar, I dare not speak nonsense about the commander of an army. What I just said was just casual. Your Highness does not need to take it seriously."

There was a brief silence in the room.

Nangong Huoyue picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and continued to write with his head down, his figure still calm and calm: "Young Master Luo does not dare to answer the question of the commander of the first army, so I will ask you my own question. Young Master Luo feels that, Like me, I have my own My own kingdom has nearly one hundred thousand soldiers. The eldest princess, who is under one person but more than ten thousand, should stick to her duty as the sentence said, or should she keep her duty as Mr. Luo just said? Ideal, have self-motivation, and keep working hard?”

As soon as these words came out.

Miss Qin Er, who was studying ink, suddenly trembled with the ink block in her hand.

Luo Qingzhou's heart skipped a beat. He raised his head and looked at the blurry red figure in front of the long table through the bead curtain. His face changed a little and he lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, I am just a scholar..."

"Then "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" was composed by you?"

Before he could finish speaking, Nangong Huoyue suddenly asked.

Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment and admitted: "Your Highness is wise."

You can continue to quibble and hide other poems, but there is no need to hide the poems written on the boat that night.

Because at that time Mr. Tang had already seen who did it.

And just now on the way here, the girl named Yue Wu beside him had warned him.

The eldest princess should have found out long ago.

Therefore, if you continue to be stubborn and refuse to admit it, you will only be asking for trouble.

"What about the song [Falled into mud and crushed into dust, only the fragrance remains the same]?"

Nangong Huoyue asked again.

Luo Qingzhou felt the gaze of the Yuewu girl next to him, lowered his head and said respectfully: "I did it too."

Nangong Huoyue continued to lower her head and wave her ink, and said calmly: "I heard that this song "Ode to Plum Blossoms" has been spread in Kyoto, and is praised by Kyoto literati as the masterpiece of plum poems. It is said that it was spread by a woman named Su Qingwan. Yes, do you know her?"

Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "I met Miss Su once."

Nangong Huoyue turned her head, looked at him through the bead curtain and said, "I saw you once, and you just randomly took out such a masterpiece of praising plum blossoms? Mr. Luo, this poem should be written by you specifically for someone." Was it written like this? Falling into mud and grinding into dust, only the fragrance remains the same... There is probably only one person in the Qin family who can match such a beautiful word, right?"

Qin Weimo, who was lowering his head to study the ink, clenched the ink stick in his hand with his white fingers, unable to see the expression on his face clearly.

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and said, "I just did it casually."

"Just do it casually?"

Nangong Huoyue smiled faintly, withdrew her gaze and looked at the weak girl beside her: "What a casual act. Mr. Luo, I really like the talent of the second young lady of your Qin family, so I really want to take her away." .Would you like that?

Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "Second Miss is weak and may not be able to serve His Highness."

Nangong Huoyue looked at him and asked, "Is Mr. Luo weak?"

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and remained silent.

Nangong Huoyue withdrew her gaze, picked up the rice paper on the table, looked at the words on it and said: "I like this "Story of the Three Kingdoms" very much, and I even like the person who can write this story. Mr. Luo, I now give You have two choices. First, I will Second Miss Qin will be taken away and raised in the Fire Moon Kingdom to serve me. Secondly, if you can write another story that satisfies me, I will pretend that nothing has happened. If you let me go, I won’t pursue it any further.”

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and remained silent.

Nangong Huoyue looked at the story on the rice paper and said calmly: "This "Story of the Three Kingdoms" is very exciting. Miss Qin Er wrote this story for me, and I did not take advantage of her. What happened to your Qin family last night , I already know. I never interfere in these matters, but this time, I have made an exception to help you. I have helped you catch the most dangerous people, and you can only deal with the rest on your own. Solved."

Luo Qingzhou's heart moved, and he thought of the silver-armored soldiers he had just seen outside. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does Your Highness know about the treasonous people in the Song family who escaped?"

Nangong Huoyue put down the rice paper in his hand, picked up the pen again, and said: "I have no interest in knowing. Moreover, I have a special status and will never get involved in the rebellion. There is a government here, and the government is connected to the imperial court in Kyoto. Mr. Luo should go find them."

Luo Qingzhou frowned and said no more.

The case of rebellion is indeed not something that a feudal lord with troops and great power can intervene casually.

Nangong Huoyue lowered her head and wrote a few more lines, then said, "Yue Wu, light incense. In the time it takes to burn incense, I need to hear his affirmative choice."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Yue Wu immediately walked outside, brought in a stick of incense and lit it.

The room fell silent.

Second Miss Qin looked calm and was still sitting here kneeling, holding an ink block in her hand and quietly studying the ink.

Nangong Huoyue looked at the story on the rice paper and scribbled it down.

The lit incense turns into smoke and curls up.

Luo Qingzhou stood outside the bead curtain with his head lowered. He was silent for a moment, and then he said, "Your Highness, I didn't think of any story for the next moment."

As soon as these words came out, Su Zhi, who was studying ink, stopped immediately.

But he suddenly said: "However, there is a book of war here. I wonder if Your Highness needs it?"

"Book of war?"

After saying this, Nangong Huoyue suddenly stopped writing, turned her head and looked at him and said: "I have memorized all the military books of the Great Yan Empire before I was thirteen years old. I have read the military books of Baihua Kingdom, Dali Kingdom and other countries."

Luo Qingzhou bowed and said: "This military book of mine is called "Thirty-Six Strategies". Have you ever read it, Your Highness?"

"Thirty-Six Strategies?"

Nangong Huoyue frowned and said: "I have never heard of the name. Since there are thirty-six strategies, you can tell me one first and I will listen."

Luo Qingzhou pondered for a moment and said respectfully: "These thirty-six strategies can be summarized in a poem. The golden and jade Tan Gong strategy is used to capture robbers, fish and snakes laugh in the sea, sheep and tigers are separated by peach and mulberry, the tree is dark and the fool is gone, the pot is empty and the distant guest is suffering, there is a beautiful corpse on the roof beam, Strike Wei and attack Guo… The first strategy is named after the first word of this poem, “金”, which means “golden cicada sheds its shell”. ”

“Golden cicada sheds its shell?”

Nangong Huoyue put down his pen, sat up straight, and seemed to be interested: “Go on.”

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and said: “Golden cicada sheds its shell, which means that when a cicada turns into an adult, it has to shed its shell. It is a metaphor for escaping by tricks so that the opponent cannot find out in time. Wenwei means to preserve its form and complete its momentum; friends will not doubt, enemies will not move, and Xun will stop the poison.”

“It means to preserve the original form of the position, create a momentum of still defending in the original place, so that the friendly forces will not doubt and the enemy will not dare to attack rashly. When the enemy is confused, suddenly transfer the main force secretly without anyone noticing.”

Hearing this, Nangong Huoyue’s eyes lit up.

"Your Highness, in the fifth round of "Stories of the Three Kingdoms" written by Miss Qin Er, [Sending a false edict to all towns to respond to Cao Gong, breaking through the pass and three heroes fighting Lu Bu], there is a similar strategy."

"Sun Jian was chased by Hua Xiong, took off his hat and let his subordinate Zu Mao put it on, and fled in two ways. Hua Xiong saw the hat and chased after him..."

Luo Qingzhou bowed his head and told the story outside the pearl curtain.

Nangong Huoyue's beautiful eyes were burning as she listened, and she gradually held her breath.

Luo Qingzhou finished telling a story about the Three Kingdoms and then another about the Warring States, all of which were "escape strategies".

After he finished telling the three "escape strategies", Nangong Huoyue's beautiful eyes were bright, and she was still not satisfied: "The strategy is good, and the story is even better! What a great Thirty-Six Strategies, Escape Strategies!"

After savoring it for a moment.

She suddenly said, "Mr. Luo, come in and talk."

The Yuewu people outside the curtain were startled when they heard the words, and then they all looked at the young scholar at the door with complicated eyes.

The first plan alone made His Highness take it so seriously. There are still 35 plans left, and there may even be more...

I'm afraid His Highness will...

"Mr. Luo, go in quickly."

Yue Wu saw him standing there motionless, and hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.

Luo Qingzhou then lowered his head, pushed aside the bead curtain, looked at the ground, walked in, and stood not far away.

Nangong Huoyue's beautiful eyes first looked at him, and then asked impatiently: "The second plan is a [Jade] word, what does it mean?"

Luo Qingzhou replied respectfully: "Throwing a brick to attract jade."
