Chapter 237: Discipline Zhou Zhi
With Wang Xu's new personnel appointment and the issuance of the decree, the entire Taishou Mansion has fallen into unprecedented busyness. And he himself did not escape, and from time to time various official documents were submitted for his approval. And now that the general's palace has just been built, the transfer of subordinate officials, the allocation of funds and materials, the establishment of a separate treasury, and all kinds of messy things must be reviewed and stamped by him.
As a result, Wang Xu, who thought he could take a good rest, failed to leave the study for three consecutive days. After reading this, that one came again, and in addition to eating and sleeping, it was a pile of official documents.
Fortunately, after surviving the first few days, after all the big things were decided, there was nothing for him. The specific execution and other odd things, everyone knows how to handle it themselves. Just look around from time to time and ask about progress.
In addition, when you have nothing to do, either you accompany Xu Shu, or you practice martial arts, and study "Benlei Marksmanship" and "Wang's Swordsmanship". For martial arts, Wang Xu has never let go, this is a life-saving thing. Moreover, since we are determined to have both civil and military skills, we must not relax.
However, unexpectedly, Xu Shu's martial arts did not fall behind. On weekdays, she doesn't show her much, but after a few encounters, she is quite powerful. Although it is not an opponent all the time, the gap is not too big.
After careful inquiry, Wang Xu also learned that in the more than two years that he had traveled outside, Xu Shu had been practicing martial arts ruthlessly whenever he was free. Although it is not as fast as Wang Xu's hard training outside, it is not much slower. And I didn't leave it on weekdays, and I would practice martial arts whenever I had time.
In this regard, Wang Xu is also very happy. After all, the higher Xu Shu's martial arts, the more guaranteed her safety is, so what's wrong with having fewer worries!
In addition, taking advantage of the time he had in the past few days, he also took the time to write down a few articles on the art of war that he remembered more clearly. After all, he had promised Zhou Zhi that he would give him a few famous art of war to memorize, and Wang Xu was very concerned about their growth.
On this morning, Wang Xu finally finished annotating the last of the thirty-six plans. After checking it carefully, I slowly put the brush back into the pen holder. Gently drying the last row of words, he quickly picked up the other three folded silk silks on the table and walked out of the room. said loudly: "Wife, I'm going to the barracks, will you go?" β
"What did you say?" Hearing this, Xu Shu, who was tinkering with the maids in the gazebo in the distance, immediately turned around.
"I said I was going to the barracks, and asked if you would go?" Wang Xu said with a smile.
"Oh! You go, I won't go! Xu Shu replied suddenly, and went to fiddle with their things again.
Hearing this, Wang Xu couldn't help but look curiously at what they were doing, just because the distance was a bit far, and he couldn't see it clearly, but he probably knew what they were doing with needle and thread.
In this regard, Wang Xu was not interested at all, shook his head with a smile, stopped calling her, turned around and walked outside the hospital.
After passing through several courtyards, Wang Xu soon came to the front yard of Taishou Mansion. And the sound of "ping pong" also came into my ears instantly, and when I looked up, there were people everywhere. In addition to the officials, there were also many craftsmen, whose noisy Cheng dΓΉ may have surpassed the market.
But this is also something that cannot be helped, because there is not enough place. Therefore, Tian Feng, Huanjie and others can only gradually reconstruct the layout of the front yard according to what Wang Xu said at the beginning, demolish the unnecessary courtyard garden, build a house, and also add the flat floor to a three-story building. In this way, of course, it will be a fuss all day long.
In fact, Wang Xu also mentioned yì two days ago to see if he would divide two other courtyards from his backyard, after all, the backyard is not small, and at present, more than half of them are not needed.
But he was unanimously opposed by everyone, saying that he was the general of Zhennan, the governor of Jingnan, the Taishou of Lingling, and the Marquis of Taoyang! If the dwelling does not stand out from the state, it will lack majesty.
In the face of everyone's admonitions, of course Wang Xu hurriedly shut up, since he didn't appreciate it, forget it, anyway, it wasn't his own hard work. It's just that they are right, people in this era are like this, with strict hierarchies, and in everyone's mind, they think that this should be the case.
Therefore, after this, the front yard of Taishou Mansion fell into a major renovation. It's been a lot of trouble for many days now, and in less than a month or two, the project can't be completed.
Wang Xu didn't have time to wander around here, so he swept the general construction situation, and quickly left the Taishou Mansion amid the salute of the guards, officials, and craftsmen!
Since he asked Dian Wei to go to the barracks to train the guards and assist the generals in the army, he did not allow the guards to follow him during this time. The main thing is that it feels too inconvenient, there is always a group of people following behind me, not like protection, but always a feeling of being watched, very unnatural.
Therefore, today is no exception, after letting the guards move their beloved horses over, they immediately stopped the few people who wanted to follow, and rushed to the barracks alone.
As soon as he ran to the gate of the school, he suddenly saw Zhou Zhi standing there, turning around leisurely. It's just that he has his back to this side, so he didn't notice Wang Xu's arrival.
"Zhou Zhi, what are you doing here? Could it be that all the affairs in the army have been done? Why are you so idle? Wang Xu immediately asked curiously.
"Huh?" Hearing Wang Xu's voice, Zhou Zhi immediately turned his head and immediately laughed: "It's the boss!" No, I'm waiting for Huan Su to transfer supplies over there. β
Hearing this, Wang Xu smiled slightly, immediately turned over and dismounted, and threw the reins of the horse to the guards who came forward before he spoke: "This is just right, so I don't have to go in to find you, I came here for you today." β
"Huh?" Zhou Zhi suddenly became puzzled, and looked at Wang Xu suspiciously for a long time, but said puzzledly: "No, I haven't made a mistake recently?" Why are you looking for me again? β
"Huh!" Hearing this, Wang Xu couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhi helplessly, and said, "Can't I come to you if it's okay?" β
"Of course!" Zhou Zhi didn't pause at all, and immediately answered.
"Huh! Looking at the way you look today, it seems to be in a good mood. Didn't you still be full of resentment two days ago, saying that I demoted you? Wang Xu smiled slightly.
"Hey, hey! That's true, boss! How comfortable it is to be a gong official, the officials have to scold me all day long, and every day when I get home, someone always comes to visit. It's much worse now, and the house is deserted like a haunted house. A few servants who have nothing to do all day long and float around are like ghost pawns, who can scare people to death! As he spoke, Zhou Zhi grimaced at the same time, looking anxious to complain.
"Huh! Didn't I hear Zhang Jing say, did you buy a maid? How? Still feeling comfortable in the house? Wang Xu suddenly smiled narrowly.
"Boss!" Hearing this, Zhou Zhi's face suddenly became bitter. "What kind of maid, is it an ordinary maid? This Zhang Jing knows how to chew the root of his tongue. β
"I think it's pretty much the same, anyway, you don't look like a good person, you should be a thief! Otherwise, why did you suddenly remember to buy a maid? Wang Xu was suddenly suspicious.
"I'm still a virgin, boss! You can't discredit my discipline! β
"You also have a temperance?" Wang Xu suddenly rolled his eyes.
Zhou Zhi said solemnly this time: "I'm serious! It was a complete coincidence that I bought that maid, that day I led the troops out to meet the convoy of Guiyang transporting supplies, but I saw her being beaten and scolded by her family in a village in the east, and I thought it was very pitiful, so I proposed to buy a maid in Fuzhong, and their family agreed. β
"Oh? Why did you beat and scold her? Wang Xuqi said.
"Her parents were killed by thieves and she was living with relatives." As he spoke, Zhou Zhi couldn't stop sighing.
"Oh! In this case, then you should be kind to others, not to mention marrying a wife, at least as a concubine! Wang Xu also nodded.
Hearing this, Zhou Zhi suddenly shook his head in dissatisfaction, and said hurriedly: "I said it all, it's just an ordinary maid, and I haven't touched anything else except my hands." Besides, she is only 14 years old, and she is not an adult at all, I am not like the boss who has pedophilia, and I have the idea of beating someone Xiao Chang'er back then. β
"What did you say!" Wang Xu's eyes widened suddenly, and he said angrily: "Didn't you instigate that?" Still talk about me? Besides, I'm a pedophile, I just want to be nice to her and talk about it when I grow up. A qiΔ still depends on what she likes when she grows up! β
"Hey, hey!" Laughed dryly, but Zhou Zhi didn't continue, but suddenly asked mysteriously, "How is it?" This time the boss went to Beijing, did he go to find Diao Chan? β
"Nope!" Wang Xu said angrily.
"Isn't it! You've abandoned people like this! Saying that, Zhou Zhi also made a sad look.
Wang Xu doesn't want to deal with it anymore, and whatever he says will be washed anyway. And if you say something just now, it will be even worse. With Zhou Zhi's character, he will definitely continue to be pedophile, and then his heart is dark, and he has a human face and a beast's heart!
When even changed the topic: "Forget it, talking to you, that's me bored with myself." Let me ask you, how does it feel to be transferred to the army at the moment! β
"Hehe, in fact, being in the army is more comfortable than being a Gong Cao Peng, Gong Cao Peng has to face those never-ending documents and reports all day long, and the army is much more comfortable." Just after two sentences, Wang Xu didn't have time to answer, but Zhou Zhi's face changed, and he cried and said: "Boss, but the captain is two hundred stones less than Gong Cao Peng's Yulu!" I've bought another maid now, it's not enough! You see if I am a general, that would be better. β
"What a fart! You are less here, the amount I gave the lieutenant is more than 400 stone a year, is it not enough? There are now 30 maids in my house, and I have to pay for banquets and visits to officials from time to time, but the expenses for a year are not so much. Wang Xu suddenly scolded.
"Boss, but I like luxury! Gold, silver and jade, pearls and gemstones, I like them very much! β
"Get out of ......" The green tendons on Wang Xu's head have already risen.
"Huh! Boss, just kidding! Zhou Zhi suddenly laughed.
"Hey! Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, anyway, you are doing the captain first now, so you must do it well. But with Gao Shun looking at you, I am also relieved. β
Saying that, Wang Xu was no longer verbose, and immediately took out the four silk silks from his arms, solemnly handed them to Zhou Zhi and said: "This is what I said at the beginning, I will simply write down the art of war that I remember." There are four in total, one is the Art of War, one is the twenty-four articles of the Art of War, one is the Captain's Son, and the last one is the Thirty-six Strategies. I've added annotations to this, and I've analyzed the famous battles I still remember, so take a good look at them! As I said at the beginning, as long as you can fully understand and memorize all of them, then you can try to develop in the direction of military division in the future. β
"Really!" Zhou Zhi's eyes widened in surprise.
After taking the four silk silks in Wang Xu's hand, he laughed excitedly: "It's still good to be the boss, I have worked hard to write these four strange books for me, and I will definitely become the best military advisor!" β
"Forget it, don't disgust me, I still want to live two more years!" After speaking, Wang Xu looked at the four silk silks in Zhou Zhi's hand, and solemnly continued: "However, you have to remember that this thing must not be seen by others, if you memorize it all, then burn it!" β
"I understand!" Zhou Zhi finally stopped messing around and nodded immediately.
"Alright, then you're busy! I'm going to walk around the barracks! β
As he was talking, his feet had not yet stepped out, but Xu Shu's call was suddenly heard in the distance. "Husband, someone from the family has come, and he has brought a thousand war horses!"
