The breakfast prepared by the stove room has been sent to Zhou's empty room, Xiao Lianzi is looking at it strangely, when Zhou Kong enters the house, Xiao Lianzi is startled and said:

"General Zhou, the breakfast in the Yongxing Marquis Mansion is really weird!"

"There are more strange things." Zhou Kong said unhappily, casually threw the basin on the washing shelf, walked in front of the desk and looked down at it and was stunned: "What are they!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Bailiyan appeared outside the room again:

"After General Zhou's breakfast, prepare to enter the palace with Benhou to meet the king, don't delay."

"You tell me that you eat this in the morning in your house?"

"Not all, the next person is basic but guarantees a bowl of porridge, a meat bun and a vegetable bun, a plate of pickles, a cup of soy milk, and the guests and hosts prepare it in advance according to their preferences. Ben Hou prepared an ordinary meal for General Zhou, and in the future, General Zhou could order the stove to be eaten every day, but not wasted. ”

"Then this is the bun in your mouth!" Zhou Kong fingered the meat bun and looked at it in surprise, this may be the first time she has seen the bun in her life.

It is said that steamed buns are Zhuge Liang's invention, and of course they can't be had at the moment.

Although the bun is simple, it is not suitable for marching cooking due to the need for dough and steamer.

Of course, if you don't make noodles, you can also do it, but the taste is no different from the dough, it is not as fast as the direct potsticker pancakes, and the steamed noodles are easy to perish, the northern summer is hot and humid, the short shelf life is not conducive to carrying, and the pancakes are dry and easy to preserve.

Therefore, steamed buns are still only spread in Lingling and Yongxing, and the permanent army also produces and supplies them, but they are not known to the outside world in general, and it is not surprising that Zhou Kong has not seen them.

When he first arrived, Zhou Kong's heart was furious, and his anger immediately spread to Bailiyan:

"Why do you always rely on me to do something, and don't leave!"

"Ben Hou has already eaten the meal, just waiting for General Zhou to enter the palace."

"What about those mothers-in-law of yours, why don't you see the twittering."

"Busy with business, busy with business, sending children to school, General Zhou will not think that rich and noble families are born idle and panicked."

There is a clear division of labor between the big and small affairs in the house, Jiang Rong and Qiao County are in charge of internal affairs and economic power, Xiao Er is an assistant technician, Xiao Chunyu and Chunrou are responsible for the children's school and schoolwork on weekdays, and teach some music skills and housekeeping business that women should have. Jiang Rong and Lord Qiao have to check their children's schoolwork every five days, especially for their own children.

After the opening of the Erlang School in Chenling, a special aristocratic school was set up, and a women's school was opened. The daughters of Bailifang and Bailixiang were transferred from the palace to the aristocratic school, and they had to be picked up and dropped off every day.

Zhou Kong took it for granted that it was easy for the powerful and rich to live, but how did he know the difficulties of the powerful and the powerful.

Under the glamorous surface is the surging tide of deceit, either you die or I die, especially at the moment, even the nine clans are slaughtered at every turn, and if you don't kill a group of powerful interest groups, you will soon be killed by powerful interest groups.

This is an endless cycle, as long as you participate in the game, there is no day when you wash your hands of gold, even if you want to retreat, the thousands of subordinates behind you will not be able to take a step back, until you die, your value will be inherited by your heirs, continue to serve the new interest group.

Around the time of Chen, Baili Yan led Zhou Kong to the palace, and Zhou Kong took all the female guards until Yongtai Gate was stopped by the forbidden army.

"Dasi Nong, the palace is forbidden, and foreign troops are not allowed to enter!" The forbidden army all said.

"This is General Zhou Kongzhou, who was ordered by the king to enter the palace to meet him, and it should be okay to bring a few entourage."

"There can be no more than two followers, please forgive me."

"Well, Ben Hou knows." Baili Yan said, turned around and said to Zhou Kong: "The palace is forbidden, foreign troops are not allowed to enter, you bring two followers to attack with me." ”

"It's really troublesome, Xiaolianzi and Wang Jiao, follow Ben Jiang into the palace, and the others are waiting here."

"No!"

The women spoke in unison, and Zhou Kong only took the two of them into the palace with Bailiyan.

After the four of them left, the forbidden army of Yongtaimen immediately said:

"Hey, seeing the woman just now, I'm almost scared to death."

"But no, you didn't see Liu Dutong's face just now, his hand kept trembling on the sword, and his eyes were straight."

A group of soldiers talked about it, and soon it was known to everyone after a hundred and a hundred years.

In order to see Zhou Kong, King Xian also stopped the court meeting today, and waited in the Bailing Garden, and Gao Xun came to report in a panic around four o'clock in the morning:

"King, the Marquis of Yongxing has arrived."

Seeing that Gao Xun's face was different, King Xian was puzzled and hurriedly asked:

"Why is Gao Aiqing so panicked."

"Great, king, that woman is outside the garden, and her appearance is very amazing, and the minister advises the king not to see it, so as not to be frightened."

"Shhh...... I heard a report last night, Zhou Kong was extremely ugly, frightened the widow's niece, not to mention, but also extremely domineering. Gao Aiqing, you said that this girl really has the ability that Yongxing Hou said? ”

"I don't know if there is an incompetent minister, but it's really scary to look at that half of the face, so it's okay not to see it."

"It's all here, how can there be no reason not to see, spread that Yongxing Hou and Zhou Kong came to see him."

"No!"

Last night, Princess Delanyuan, the king of Xian, came to report, Zhou Kong's ugliness frightened the whole house, and the king of Xian didn't sleep well all night, and Gao Xun just glanced at King Xian, so he was even more curious, so he had to see Zhou Kong to find out.

When he was young, Gao Xun led Baili Yan and Zhou Kong into the park, and the king of Xian thought of the whim and wanted to take eight times the telescope to look at Zhou Kong, which is not to see and do not know, to see a frightened heartbeat, only to see a woman in a man's bun, the whole left face is hot without a human shape, a piece of red and a piece of black, between the steps of the murderous tiger and tiger, as if to kill the god.

King Xian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his heart beat wildly:

"Scared, scared. Jiang, Jiang Hao......"

"What does the king command?"

"Go, go get some more people."

"No."

King Xian was busy sitting on the chair and rubbing his chest, his mind full of the amazing face of the fierce and vicious look of the sky.

After a while, the three of them came to the outside of the pavilion, and Gao Xun and Bai Liyan stepped forward to see:

"Chen Baili Yan see the king."

"Yongxing Hou is exempt."

"King Xie."

Bai Liyan withdrew the number of courtesies, looked up and saw that King Xian's face was ugly, and his eyes fell behind him in disbelief and dodged. Seeing this, Bai Liyan knew that it must have been King Xian who frightened Zhou Kong, and he hurriedly said:

"The king, this is the heroine of the female middle school who confronted the ministers in Shouzhao City, Zhou Kong, General Zhou."

"Oh, the widow can see it, too."

King Xian spoke with all his strength, as if he had mustered up enough strength to flee at any time.

At this time, Bai Liyan turned around and said to Zhou Kong:

"General Zhou Kong, I haven't seen the king yet."

Zhou Kong also saw that King Xian was a coward at this time, and he must have been frightened by her appearance, so he didn't take King Xian seriously in his heart, and arched his hand casually:

"Zhou Kong has seen King Xian."

"Oh, no courtesy, General Zhou looks like a god, and the widow admires it......"

On a cold day, the king of salt, who was roasting charcoal, also took out a silk handkerchief to wipe his sweat, which showed that he was frightened.

"The King." Bai Liyan said: "Although General Zhou looks dirty, he has the demeanor of a general and can take on important tasks. Although it is a woman's body, it is an example for women in the world to eliminate violence. ”

"Yes, yes, what Yongxing Hou said is exactly what the widow meant." King Xian was busy coping, pretending to be calm, and then said: "Where is General Zhou Kong, why don't you like red makeup, and prefer to join the army from Rong?" ”

"King Huixian, a native of Shanyang, Guopei County, Xiasun Province. Just because his parents are slaves, he has been a slave for generations, and when he was fourteen years old, he encountered a black turban uprising, and he joined the black turban army to fight everywhere. ”

"Oh...... I see. But the widow sees that the general is only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, why can General Zhou order tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at such an age. ”

Zhou Kong's parents were slaves, and his grandparents were still slaves, and the situation of slavery in various countries was very different. Sun Guo borders Wei Guo, and Wei Guo is a complete and unswerving continuation of total slavery, which has a greater impact on Sun and Xu Guo bordering it, so Sun Guo's slavery is hereditary, and it is allowed to leave the country, but it is very difficult.

The slavery system of the Liang, Xian, Changsun, Jin, Zhi, Song and other countries basically collapsed more than 300 years ago and was replaced by lowly status, thus forming a social hierarchy with clear and strict hierarchies, and the dictatorship of the aristocracy was the core political system, and the development of the productive forces indirectly promoted the change of political and production relations.

Therefore, the Central Plains is now in the midst of slavery and the political change of the old aristocracy, the Xianguo has completely abolished the slavery system under the efforts of Bailiyan, the old aristocratic power has been suppressed, and the centralized imperial system with the cabinet and professional bureaucracy and the new power center is taking shape.

Zhou Kong was originally a noble house slave, and because of his good facial features, he was arranged to be the maid of the young lady of the master family when he was ten years old.

This family is also a local family, and the ancestors are famous nobles of Sun Kingdom, and the family has some heritage. Thanks to the good environment and opportunities, Zhou Kong learned to read and write, and had the opportunity to come into contact with the "Ten Essentials of the Art of War", which is still a banned book.

"The Ten Essentials of the Art of War" was written by the military god Wang Bogu more than 180 years ago, and it is a well-known military book that is rarely circulated in the market. It mainly talks about the terrain, military formation, strategy, strategy, offensive warfare, defensive warfare, water warfare, construction, logistics, and drill training.

Zhou Kong is smart by nature and has a better memory, and over time, he has seen the full set of "Ten Essentials of the Art of War".

Zhou Kong's hair is largely related to the scar on her face, after the destruction of Shanyang City, the rebels killed and plundered, Zhou Kong's parents died in the fire, and in order to survive, Zhou Kong made a bun and pretended to be a boy to blend into the rebels.

Until the age of sixteen, the chest was exposed, and the guard found that he was caught in a prostitute camp and wanted to commit adultery. This courage also alarmed the rebel heavenly master who was passing by at that time, so he collected Zhou Kong by his side, because he was different from ordinary people and had many outstanding performances, and was later recommended to the supernatural power, and has been fighting in the country of Changsun, and then transferred back to Sun Guo to sit in the town, until he was transferred to Zhaocheng to encounter Baili Yan.

Hearing Zhou Kong's life experience, King Xian sighed and couldn't help but feel compassion:

"There are many injustices in the world, and it is not the fault of the generals."

"What the king said is very true." Baili Yan said, "Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat." If the people are not fed, they will take away all their livelihoods, and they will die of hunger anyway, and they will die of rebellion, and they will die of hunger and rebellion.

As the so-called harsh government is fiercer than a tiger, the people are not able to make a living under the harsh government, and finally the officials force the people to sweep the world. Throughout the kings of the past dynasties, those who died first died in internal affairs, and then died in soldiers, and the lessons of blood must be learned, and the king should be aware. ”

"Yongxing Hou's words are really golden and jade." Gao Xun said, and then said: "The minister thinks that Xianguo should cultivate and recuperate as soon as possible to make up for the loss of national strength in the past twenty years. ”

"The two Aiqing have a vague understanding, and now that General Zhou has returned, the widow's country can be said to be like a tiger with wings. Yongxing Hou, the widow asked General Zhou Kong about other things, Ai Qing and Gao Qing temporarily retreated far away to avoid, and they must not eavesdrop. ”

Bailiyan and Zhou Kong glanced at each other, not knowing what King Xian's intentions were. Bai Liyan asked cautiously:

"I don't know why the king can't ask General Zhou Kong face to face."

"Eh, there are some things that Yongxing Hou can't know, so don't step down quickly."

"This ......" Bai Liyan hesitated, and seeing that Zhou Kong was not afraid, he said again: "The minister obeys the order." ”
