- Over the next few days, the inventory proceeded in a step-by-step manner. Every day, as on that day, the soldiers were concentrated on the school ground, counted and counted, and the work was carried out meticulously.

In the summer, the sun was scorching and scorching, the officials were so tired that they were hoarse, and many people were suffering from heat stroke, so they could only arrange shifts, but Sima Guang did not rest for a moment, insisted on being on duty every day, and meticulously supervised every link.

But the more serious he was, the more happy the Praetorian generals felt...... In these years, it is not easy to find a monkey who has been tricked wholeheartedly.

Chen Ke never got involved, as if he was really watching the excitement. But he was not idle, he prepared Huoxiang Zhengqi water, took a sip of heat stroke, and wrapped it. There are also large parasols, herbal tea, cold melon, and sour plum soup, so that the officials can find shade and eat cold drinks as soon as they are done, and it seems that day by day it will not be so difficult.

At noon on this day, everyone hid under the parasol, ate watermelon and chatted. This watermelon is an authentic Western Xia species, which is big, sweet and sandy, both delicious and thirst-quenching. After a while, six or seven watermelons were wiped out, and the young officials were idle. Li Ding, a thin, monkey-looking official of Zhongshu Province, said with a smile: "How about playing a riddle to solve a boring puzzle?" ”

At this moment, everyone took out their handkerchiefs from their sleeves and replied while rubbing their lips: "Say it." ”

Li Ding pointed to the basin full of watermelon rinds in front of him and said, "That's it, type two words." ”

"What kind of words are two?" The crowd asked.

"These two words are one thing," Li Ding blinked and smiled ambiguously: "I'm afraid you've all tried this thing." ”

"Oh?" Everyone was interested, and they all looked at the pot of melon skin, but no one could think of a clue.

"Wake up." Someone said: "Otherwise, you can't guess." ”

"Haha, it's actually quite simple. I didn't expect to stump all the talents. Li Ding laughed three times. He said proudly: "Okay, let me remind you, the Yang family has a girl who has just grown up and is raised in a ......deep boudoir that no one knows."

"What do you mean?" The crowd was puzzled.

Chen Ke sat down and listened quietly. Although he is the same age as everyone else, and even many people are older than him, he is too far behind in rank. Officialdom is exquisite. He mingled with them, called 'wounded officers', and was to be impeached. At this time, I couldn't help but laugh.

Everyone looked at him, Chen Ke waved his hand, picked up a bottle of sour plum soup from the ice bucket, and looked at the smooth and delicate white porcelain bottle, with crystal clear water beads, just like ...... Beauty out of the bath is the same.

"Ah, got it." Everyone suddenly realized, laughed and said, "Okay, you Li Monkey, dare to face adults." Make this kind of meat joke. ”

"What exactly?" There are still people who are puzzled. Ask the people around you.

Those who understood couldn't help but laugh and said, "The waiter is weak to help up." The beginning is the time of new grace. ”

"Oh, I see." The rest of the people also understood, it turned out that the mystery was - 'broken melon', isn't it just a pot of broken melon!

Everyone laughed and laughed, but Sima Guang didn't hear it, and kept sitting in the corner and writing hard. These days, he has always been like this, except for his work is reading and writing, leaving no leisure at all.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What are you busy with?" Chen Ke walked to the side and handed over a bottle of cold sour plum drink.

"Thank you," Sima Guang said, holding up the teacup in his hand, "I'll drink tea." ”

"Okay." Chen Ke copied a chair, sat on his side, took a sip of Sima Guang's unwanted drink and said, "I haven't rested after a busy morning." ”

"It's not work." Sima Guang smiled: "I wrote the gadgets." "Even if he is a stone, these days, he has been warmed up by Chen Ke. What's more, Chen Sanlang is enthusiastic and sincere, and his demeanor is very easy to make people feel good.

"What Brother Junshi wrote, it won't be a gadget." Chen Ke said with a smile.

"Hehe, it's ridiculous." Sima Guang smiled embarrassedly; "In the past few years, I have nothing to do in Taichang Temple, but I only read history for recreation. However, seeing that the historical books were huge and it was difficult for scholars to read them, they came up with the idea of deleting the complicated and extracting the essentials and making a "General Chronicle". ”

"Tongzhi ......" Chen Ke thought about it and understood, this is the predecessor of the great "Zizhi Tongjian", and he couldn't help but get excited and said: "Good idea!" Wear up the history books of the past dynasties, take time as the key link, and take events as the goal, so that people can have an unobstructed overview of the thousand-year history of China. In this way, 'good can be the law, and evil can be a precept', and the good is great! ”

"......" Sima Guang's eyes lit up, Chen Ke said that he was in his heart, and immediately smiled bitterly: "That's too big, with the power of just one person, he can't finish his life." He said with a smile: "I only plan to write from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to the death of Qin, and it is estimated that it will take several years to write." ”

"Of course the power of one person can't do it, how can you cultivate history by yourself." Chen Ke said with a smile: "Like my teacher's revision of the Book of Tang and the History of the Five Dynasties, there is a special bookstore, several literary ministers and assistants, and more than a dozen scribes to start with. ”

"That's the official history." Sima Guang couldn't hide his envy on his face and said: "Naturally, the imperial court will fund and send people, I am just a private historian, who will fund me to send people?" ”

"Then it will also become official history." Of course, Chen Ke can say 'I sponsor', but that is too explicit, and it is only counterproductive: "I feel that this "Tongzhi" is of great significance, and the officials must be interested." ”

"Huh." Sima Guangxin said, this guy went to my heart again, and he still smiled and said: "I just wrote a beginning, I can't take it out and show it, let's talk about it later." ”

"Also, everything pays attention to being a hit, and this cannon has to be fired." Chen Ke said with a smile: "Is there any little brother who can help, although Brother Junshi speaks, it is incumbent on him." ”

"Thank you." Although Sima Guang didn't want to have too much to do with Chen Ke, there was a way that 'good words and three winters are warm', he is now at the lowest point, and the moment when he needs to be recognized the most, after listening to Chen Ke's words, he was still very moved, nodded and said: "I will ask for more advice in the future." ”

"I can't talk about it." Chen Ke said: "You are my teacher in school. ”

Sima Guang felt very useful again, his mouth was humble, but there was a smile on his face.

"You're busy." Chen Ke got up with a smile and said, "I won't bother, but writing with a bow like this is harmful to the waist, shoulders and neck, and it has to be changed." ”

"Hmm." Sima Guangda nodded his head and said: "When I was young, I didn't realize it, but now I am nearly forty years old, and my body bones are not as good as before, and I often feel backache and can't raise my head." ”

"This is caused by long-term desk writing," Chen Ke said: "I have a set of exercises, and I practice every day when I am tired of writing, which can greatly relieve fatigue." If you can persevere, you can also strengthen your muscles and prolong your life. ”

"Oh......" Sima Guang said with great interest: "You must ask for advice another day." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Chen Ke smiled: "I'll teach you at noon tomorrow." ”

"This ...... Okay, thank you. This kind of sincere help is something that Sima Guang can't refuse.

Chen Ke turned around and breathed a sigh of relief, alas, oh my god, I didn't bother to put so much effort into picking up girls......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day, Sima Guang really followed Chen Ke to learn 'office aerobics', which was not complicated at all, and he could do it in his spare time, it was like tailor-made for him.

After this set of exercises is learned, the relationship between the two will go further, and Sima Guang will no longer have a rejective attitude towards Chen Ke. Even starting to speak up is definitely a welcome progress.

Of course, the topic is limited to history. Chen Ke's profound and new insights into history made Sima Guang deeply admired, so he took out all the historical events that he couldn't bear and discussed them with him in detail.

On this day, seeing that he was in a good mood, Chen Ke pulled to the edge of the sky and said, "Brother Junshi, you have stayed in the northwest." ”

"Yes." Sima Guang nodded, and said a little gloomily: "It's not a long time, but it's unforgettable." ”

"yes." Chen Ke smiled: "Yesterday, I listened to a few of them talk about it. Speaking of which, it has been more than two years since the imperial court closed the market to Western Xia. ”

"Exactly two and a half years." Sima Guangdao.

"How's it going?" Chen Ke asked.

"Not bad." Sima Guang said: "It is said that Western Xia has been short of materials, and the people are struggling to make a living......

"I think I heard this two years ago." Chen Ke said politely.

"Hehe......" Sima Guang smiled: "The change is not so fast. ”

"But I've heard since I was a child that Xixia can't produce almost anything by itself," Chen Ke asked: "If the Gong City is cut off, they will definitely not be able to survive within a year." ”

"Yes, they can't produce anything but cows, horses and green salt." Sima Guang nodded and said, "If the blockade of them is complete, it will not take a year, and it will definitely not be able to withstand it." ”

"Is that weird?" Chen Ke smiled: "Why is there such a big gap between theory and practice?" ”

"First, there is a Liao country, and we can help them some. However, the Liao State itself was not rich, and the materials sold to the Western Xia were extremely expensive, so this was not the point. "As long as there is no internal power struggle, Sima Guang is basically defenseless against Chen Ke now. After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "It's still our own lax border prohibition, which causes smuggling to run rampant." ”

"Smuggling?"

"Well," Sima Guang nodded and said, "There is no way to do this, you have been to the northwest and you know that due to many factors, smuggling is not prohibited at all." ”

"Is it because the side generals have too much interest?" Chen Ke asked.

"There are factors in this regard, but under the strict orders of the imperial court, there are very few people who dare to commit crimes against the wind." Sima Guang said: "The main thing is smuggling from the people. ”――
