It's August, and it's the hottest time, and there are a lot fewer people on the streets. Wangshu was afraid of the heat, so he nested in the house all day long, shaking the pu fan next to him. The buckets of ice on the ground melted very quickly, and the subordinates were replaced frequently, and it was inevitable that there would be a sound in and out, which made Wangshu even more impetuous.

When Gu Wanyan came in, Wangshu was still reading "Zizhi Tongjian", and she smiled when she saw it: "You look like a man, you read this kind of book all day long?" ”

"I wish I were a man, so that I could go to the private school like those men and listen to the master's lectures, and then make a career and be happy. Unlike a delicate woman, she can't stand even a little heat. Wangshu knew that she didn't mean to blame herself, but laughed at herself.

Gu Wanyan covered her lips and smiled: "If you want to go to school, it's not impossible. ”

Wangshu immediately put down the book and stood up happily, "Does my aunt have a way?" ”

Gu Wanyan saw her excited appearance, and pursed her lips even more, not letting the laughter overflow, "His Royal Highness King Yong's homework has not been good these days, so His Majesty is thinking about finding a teacher for him, and by the way, let His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness King Cheng also listen." It just so happened that there was a new champion, with excellent literary talent, and his poems and songs were widely circulated in the community, and even those yellow-mouthed children could recite them. Originally, His Majesty was still worried about arranging an official position for him, but no, it happened to meet the affairs of His Royal Highness King Yong, so His Majesty temporarily appointed him as the Taifu and was responsible for teaching the prince. If you're interested, I'll find you a spot. ”

Wangshu helped her sit down, but hesitated, "But I'm a woman, if Your Majesty knows, I'm afraid I will be furious." ”

Gu Wanyan understood her concerns, so she comforted: "You don't have to panic, let me ask Your Majesty for this favor, I think he will definitely not refuse." ”

Wang Shu smiled when he heard this, "Uncle Mo is not the Bodhisattva of the Nine Heavens, not only does she look kind, but her heart is also so kind. ”

She has always spoken pleasantly, and the words that seemed to be flattering came out of her mouth but they were so warm and sincere, and the smile on Gu Wanyan's face deepened a little, "Do you know other reasons why I let you go to the palace?" ”

Seeing Wangshu's confused eyes, she explained: "Most of the palaces in the palace are five eaves steps, three or five flying rafters, one zhang high, three feet flat out of the eaves, and then a drag frame. With this design, the eaves shade the sun and avoid the heat. If you want to come to the place where the princes stay, it will also be a cool hall, with a water curtain inside, which is very cool. It's not like the room in my house, where only the room I live in is cooler. I'm worried about you, I can't survive the heat. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wangshu's eyes turned red with emotion, "I must have been my uncle's daughter-in-law in my last life, otherwise why would my aunt be so good to me?" For my sake? ”

"That's fate." Gu Wanyan patted her hands, but she was afraid that she would really cry, so she quickly changed the topic. The two chatted for a while before Gu Wanyan got up to leave.

Ling Lu was also deeply touched when he watched from the side, "The eldest princess is really very good to the girl. ”

Wangshu played with her distant back, and also sighed: "Yes, although my aunt is not my blood relative, she treats me better than my closest relative." ”

She couldn't help but think of everyone in the Xiao family, and she was chilled again.

A few days later, Wangshu went to the school in the palace. I don't know what the structure of the temple is, it's really cool, and on weekdays, several buckets of ice cubes in the Xiangfu don't relieve the heat, and one bucket here is enough.

Gu Huaiyu was the earliest, and when he saw her, he was not surprised, he must have already gotten the news. He looked at Wangshu's eyes full of coldness and hatred, which made Wangshu feel uncomfortable.

"I said that if my cousin really stood on the side of the royal brother, we would be enemies. Sooner or later, I will repay you for the wicked things you and the royal brother have done to my mother. ”

"His Royal Highness King Yong had better figure out the truth of the matter first, so as not to hold a grudge against the wrong person."

Wang Shu didn't deliberately explain, first, he might not believe it if he explained, and second, she had no definite evidence that this was a game set up by Xie Ange and Gu Huaixin.

The guy really didn't understand, he just thought that he was feeling comfortable, and wanted to frame it for others, and sneered; "My cousin is really powerful, she left the big tree of the Xiao family and climbed the high branch of the eldest princess. If I had married you, I am afraid that the house will be restless now. ”

His speech became more and more scathing, and he still put on that self-assured, sarcastic and teasing appearance at every turn, and Wang Shu looked more and more disgusted. Even if he wanted to marry her, she never thought of marrying him. It's obviously a man, but his heart is as narrow as a woman. Could it be that he and Xiao Sirou have been staying for a long time, and they have been assimilated by her, and even their words and deeds are synchronized with each other.

"Anyone can be as blessed as His Royal Highness King Yong, born with a big tree to enjoy the shade, everything has someone else to plan for you, you don't have to think a little about it, and naturally you don't have to look for the tall branches next to it." Wangshu picked a place and sat down, sneering in his tone.

At this time, Gu Huaijin and Gu Huaixin walked in.

Gu Huaixin's gaze wandered between the two, with a bit of malicious ridicule, "You guys arrived really early." ”

Before Wangshu could speak, Gu Huaijin had already replied for her: "How can you be as idle as you, naturally you want to leave a good impression on the teacher." ”

"Yo, is the eldest brother protecting his shortcomings?" Gu Huaixin seemed to have discovered some earth-shattering secret, and came to Gu Huaijin with great interest.

Gu Huaixin didn't want to deal with him, caught a glimpse of the figure outside, and pushed him, "The teacher is here, go back and sit down." ”

Gu Huaixin sat down at this time.

Outside the hall, a man in white walked in, with a jade crown and white boots, clean and dusty, and he looked like he was not yet in his age.

Wangshu looked at his face, and felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, she recalled it carefully.

……

"Ting Bai, you only defend and don't attack like this, when will we play this game of chess?"

"Brother Zi'an, governing the chess game is like governing the government, and paying attention to the art of checks and balances. If you are in a hurry to argue the winner or loser, it is easy to lose the country. ”

……

It's him, the white-clothed boy in "Qin Yarn Fang". When he said what he said at that time, Wangshu was a little surprised, it was enough to see that his wisdom was far-reaching, but he didn't expect him to embark on a career in office.

Gu Huaijin saw Wangshu staring at the teacher in a trance, and only thought that she was fascinated by the young and handsome appearance of this teacher, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

He threw the brush in his hand at her, "The teacher is also something you can covet?" ”

The brush just hit Wangshu's head, she covered her head and glared at Gu Huaijin viciously, "You don't care about my nosy." ”

I only heard the young man in white cough, "The minister Fang Tingbai paid a visit to His Highness and the county lord." ”

Fang Tingbai, Tingbai, sure enough, it was him.

Gu Huaijin was also a little embarrassed when he saw him make a big salute, so he stood up and gave him a handful, "In this school, there are only teachers and students, and there are no monarchs and ministers. ”

Fang Tingbai didn't insist on being polite anymore, and went back to class.

Although Gu Huaijin didn't want to admit it, he had to say that this Fang Tingbai was indeed brilliant, young, but his lectures were very organized, and he was also lively and interesting, much better than some rigid and serious ministers in the court, and the title of the new champion was also worthy of his name.

During this period, Fang Tingbai gave an example. He asked everyone with great interest: "The Jin State is the strongest country among the many feudal countries, although the King of Jin is both talented and can write good arguments, but he is not benevolent and unjust, not only teasing the King of Han, insulting the family of the King of Han, and even asking for land from the two countries of Han and Wei. If his ambitions were inflated and he took the king of Han and the king of Wei to attack Jinyang, the people of Jinyang were extraordinarily united and closed the city gate without opening it. If you were him, how would you take this city? ”

His gaze stayed on Gu Huaiyu, "His Royal Highness King Yong, you speak first." ”

Gu Huaiyu lowered his head and thought for a while, and replied: "I will lead people to guard outside the city, and when the grain and grass in the city are gone, they will naturally come out." ”

"I understand that His Royal Highness Yongwang is trying to hold them back, and will open the door when they are tired. It's just that their camp is in this city, but His Royal Highness King Yong, your camp is thousands of miles away, and the grain and grass may not be able to be supplied in time. They are afraid that before they run out of food and grass, your food and grass will be gone. Obviously, Fang Tingbai felt that his strategy was not rigorous enough.

Seeing that he was questioned, Gu Huaiyu was a little annoyed and angry, "It's just gone, who will give advice from the enemy's point of view?" ”

"This question is just an assumption, it is the ministers who came out to exercise the princes' ability to use tactics on the march." Fang Tingbai didn't show any panic because of his annoyance, but turned his head and asked Gu Huaixin on the side, "Does His Royal Highness King Cheng have an idea?" ”

Gu Huaixin played with the brush and smiled casually: "If I were the King of Jin, I would send a fine work into the city before I set out on the expedition." When the door is closed, let the fine work spread the rumor that the city lord will abandon the city and flee, causing unstability in the hearts of the people, and scattering inside, so that it can be self-defeating. ”

"It's a bit more ruthless." Fang Tingbai was slightly surprised.

Gu Huaixin looked up at Fang Tingbai, his face receded frivolously, but he became a little serious.

"Then may I ask the teacher, a philanthropic person, how to govern the world?"

Fang Tingbai smiled and didn't answer, but asked Gu Huaijin a different question.

"Your Highness, if you are the lord of Jinyang City, and the King of Jin leads water to irrigate the city, how should you protect the people of Jinyang and the city?"

Gu Huaijin didn't think about it for long, thinking that he already had the answer in his heart.

"The teacher said that the king of Jin is domineering and unkind, and he has asked for land from Han and Wei before, but I am afraid that the king of Han and the king of Wei are already dissatisfied at this time. If I were the lord of Jinyang City, I would send my henchmen to secretly go out of the city at night to persuade the King of Han and the King of Wei until they agreed to join forces to fight back. Since the kings of Han and Wei have long been suspicious, it is not difficult to rebel. The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and after the destruction of Jinyang City, it will be the turn of the two of them, so persuading, King Han and King Wei must be afraid. At that time, I only need to send someone to kill the officials guarding the embankment, so that the water will break and irrigate the Jin army, and when the Jin army saves the water and covers the chaos, let the king of Han and the king of Wei flank the two wings, and I will lead the troops to attack from the front, I believe that the Jin army will be defeated soon. ”

After listening to his words, Fang Tingbai already had a smile in his eyes, "Your Highness must be familiar with the art of war in history books on weekdays, and now you can apply what you have learned like this." ”

He saw that Gu Huaiyu's anger had almost disappeared, so he asked: "His Royal Highness King Yong, this question is to think about strategy from the perspective of my court, do you have an idea?" ”

Just now Gu Huaiyu said that he didn't want to give advice from the enemy's point of view, but now Fang Tingbai gave him this opportunity, I don't know if he was intentional or unintentional, Wang Shu felt extremely relieved when he looked at it.

Gu Huaiyu obviously couldn't think of a way, and snorted coldly: "Resisting the enemy and going out to fight is not the king's business, the king only needs to sit in the previous dynasty and be good at using people, and in case of trouble, he can send generals with outstanding strategies to go." ”

Fang Tingbai shook his head helplessly and looked at Wang Shu who was sitting on the side, "If Your Majesty sends the county lord to lead troops to Jinyang to support, how should you break the enemy army?" ”

"On the basis of His Royal Highness's strategy, he borrowed the idea of His Royal Highness King Cheng to deliberately spread the news of the unstable hearts of the people in the city outside the city, so that King Jin thought that this was a good time to attack the city. I divided the soldiers into two teams, one team stopped to dig a tunnel outside the city of Jinyang, and I led the other team to face the Jin army and distract them, at this time the team had infiltrated the city through the tunnel. At this time, the river was backfilled, and the king of Han and Wei, who were rebelled, attacked from both sides, and the city lord took reinforcements to meet the enemy head-on. This time, the enemy army will inevitably be defeated. ”

"The sound of the east and the west, the darkness of Chen Cang, wonderful, really wonderful! This strategy of the county lord not only contains the ideas of His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness Chengwang, but it also overrides the two. Fang Tingbai's eyes were filled with admiration and amazement, and he praised without hesitation: "Although the minister is a teacher, he has benefited a lot from today's lesson. The princes have a city strategy, and they can be Your Majesty's right-hand men, and if the county lord is a man, he will definitely be a good general of my court. My Nanxi country is really full of talents, and the future is terrifying. ”

Wang Shu and Gu Huaijin glanced at each other, and hurriedly got up and said, "The teacher praises falsely." ”
