Not long after, in Dingcheng, an academy was built - Jixia School Palace.

In this school palace, whether it is a legalist, a farmer, or a doctor...... All exist, Zuo Houde also wants to reproduce the prosperity of a hundred schools of thought!

Of course, Zuo Houde's proposition is still very clear - governing the country according to law.

Li Yan has already taken his disciples with the cooperation of Zuo Houde to Burmese County to conduct experiments, and at the same time cultivate suitable Qin officials, oh no, they should be called Qi officials!

When the time is right, Zuo Houde is ready to vigorously promote the reform of Legalism.

For the rest of the schools, Zuo Houde still provides a suitable position for them to display their talents!

Zuo Houde has consciously achieved the separation of military and political affairs, Zuo Houde has always served as the principal of the Yanwu Military Academy, and most of the officers in this army have always been born in the Yanwu Military Academy!

Zuo Houde's main work at present is still in the army, Zuo Houde began to vigorously expand the army, of course, the most important thing is to let the previous hundreds of thousands of soldiers quickly integrate into the army!

……

Time passed in a hurry, and it was nine years in the blink of an eye!

In the past nine years, Daqi and Daming have fought several times, almost one-sided, Nanming kept retreating, and Han Tingzhi finally captured Guanzhong, which has been taken back by Zuo Houde!

Now Han Tingzhi can only take advantage of the natural danger of the Yangtze River to trap the south!

In the past nine years, the entire northern land can be said to be completely renewed, and Zuo Houde has subconsciously promoted industrial reform and political and legal system reform, which has been quite effective over the years.

The first is the political and legal system, Li Yan and his entourage stayed in Burmese County for four years, and finally combined with the Qin Law of the year, the governance of Burma County was strict and meticulous!

Not only did it establish and conform to the laws of the present day, but it also cultivated many suitable talents and qualified officials!

Since the fifth year, a new political and legal system has been implemented throughout the country, during which a lot of blood has been shed, and it has been suppressed by the army in the hands of Zuo Houde!

Just like Tan Sitong said, changing the law always has to bleed, Zuo Houde is naturally ready for a long time!

At the same time, with the years of Daqi on the battlefield, continue to win. Clear-eyed people realize that Daqi is the future of the world!

Jixia School Palace is also more lively, many hidden schools, a lineage of Guiguzi, as well as Taoism, Confucian students have also returned here, the wind of lectures is prosperous, for a time there is a hundred schools of thought.

Zuo Houde pushed the boat along the river, combined with the talents of each family, began to implement industrial reform, with the promotion of Zuo Houde and the cooperation of reform talents, in just a few years, it was quite effective.

First of all, the technology of smelting steel has been improved by the Mohist apprentices, the standard weapons in the army have been changed to two rounds, and the firearms have also made great progress over the years, first of all, there has been a rifled gun similar to Zuo Houde's previous life, as a long-range output firepower range of up to 200 meters.

Of course, with the development of smelting technology, the artillery has also been greatly improved, and the original Tiger Squat Cannon is only equivalent to the mortars of later generations, with a caliber of only 50 mm.

In nine years, several more types of artillery were invented, and there were also cannons similar to those of the previous life, which relied on smelting technology, especially cast iron, which had the advantage of being cheap, not that it performed better than other metals, whether it was brass or bronze, although expensive, it was tough and not easy to burst.

This cannon weighed two hundred and thirty pounds, the caliber reached 144 mm, the power was huge, and the firing range was long, reaching five kilometers. Named Qiwei Cannon by Zuo Houde!

Qi Wei cannon, Zuo Houde is only a small-scale application. Of course, the first time it was in Tongguan, just three cannons made a hole in the city wall of Tongguan!

It was this cannon that made Zuo Houde feel what a giant ship cannon is, although Zuo Houde did not have a giant ship, but it didn't hurt Zuo Houde to feel the charm of the cannon!

I have to say that when he saw Qi Wei Cannon, Zuo Houde really remembered a person in his previous life - the poet saint Zhang Zongchang!

This hero once wrote a "Gale Song", which mentions the cannon of the giant ship!

The cannon is blazing with his mother,

Wega Hainei returned to his hometown.

Zhang Zongchang, a number of heroes,

Ande's giant whale devours Fuso.

……

Of course, if you really want to mention the foundation of industry, you have to say that the railway, with the development of smelting technology, Zuo Houde has also built a railway in recent years, with a total length of 217 kilometers, from Dingcheng to Seoul.

Of course, it is still too short, and Zuo Houde's idea is to build until Youzhou connects the entire north.

With Zuo Houde's ideas, he also created a "steam engine", and it was because of the birth of the steam engine that Zuo Houde had the idea of manufacturing a railway.

This railway brought a burst of prosperity to the trade routes under Zuo Houde's rule, and at the same time, Zuo Houde's deployment of troops was also a lot more convenient!

……

Dingcheng, the general's mansion in the east.

This is Zuo Houde's mansion that year, although in Dingcheng over the years, Zuo Houde built his own palace, but this is still a palace of Zuo Houde.

At this time, Zuo Houde was sitting in the lobby, and sitting next to him was his wife Huang Rong, Huang Rong is also over forty years old this year, still with a gorgeous face, and looks about thirty years old!

Zuo Houde has grown his beard over the years, and he has been in the top position for a long time, but his face is serious, and he looks mighty!

Zuo Houde has not remarried over the years, and Huang Rong has not had any more children!

So Zuo Houde also has a son and a daughter, Zuo Yu and Zuo Yao, both of whom are twenty-two years old this year.

The two of them also got married, Zuo Yu was sixteen years old, Zuo Houde personally recruited a good family for him, the woman was Li Yan's young daughter, one year younger than Zuo Yu!

And Zuo Yao kept shirking, and it wasn't until he was eighteen years old that Zuo Houde promised him to marry his proud protégé Chen Qingzhi.

This person is a rising star in the army, and he is actually the first in his homework at the Yanwu Military Academy, and he is very appreciated by Zuo Houde.

Today is a family banquet, Zuo Houde's parents and children are here!

Not long after, Zuo Houde met his parents, and Zuo Jizu and his wife have also been quite carefree over the years, and they look a lot younger.

At this time, Zuo Yu and Zuo Yao stood in front of Zuo Houde, followed by a young man and a woman, who were Zuo Yao's husband Chen Qingzhi and Zuo Yu's wife Li Yuan.

After the four of them bowed their hands to Zuo Houde, they saluted: "Meet my father!" Grandpa! Royal Grandma! ”

Zuo Houde waved his hand: "It's okay, no courtesy!" ”

Zuo Jizu and his wife also waved their hands.

Not long after, Zuo Yu and his wife pulled a four or five-year-old boy to meet Zuo Houde and Zuo Jizu and his wife, who were Zuo Houde's eldest grandson - Zuo Ci.

Zuo Ci opened his mouth crisply: "I've seen the imperial grandfather!" Imperial grandfather! Imperial Grandmother! ”

Zuo Houde laughed and hugged Xiao Zuo Ci in his arms, such a family fun, Zuo Houde also enjoyed it!

Zuo Houde looked at Zuo Yao again and said, "What about Yun'er?" ”

Zuo Houde is talking about Zuo Yao's daughter Chen Yun, who is only one year old now!

Chen Qingzhi opened his mouth and said: "Father, Yun'er is at the nurse's place, Yun'er has caught a little cold in the past two days, and Yao'er and I haven't brought her here!" ”

Zuo Houde looked at the proud protégé in front of him and nodded!

The family, gathered together, began to have a feast, and at the dinner table, the family was happy!

Zuo Jizu suddenly sighed and said: "In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and Yao'er and Yu'er also have children!" ”

As he spoke, Zuo Jizu looked at Zuo Houde again and said, "Zuo clansmen, you should also help out!" ”

Zuo Houde looked up at his father, he knew that this was what happened a few days ago.

Over the years, with the reputation of Zuo Houde, the Zuo clan has done a lot of wrong things, and a few days ago he committed it in the hands of the Youzhou Commander at that time, and someone dared to say: "I am Your Majesty's brother, you dare to kill me!" ”

After Zuo Houde heard the news, he was annoyed, and it happened that Zuo Houde said in order to show his determination to support the change: "The prince committed a crime, and he will deal with it the same!" ”

directly investigated to the end, and cut off the heads of many people from the Zuo clan! Zuo Jizu said this today, and someone said something to him!

Zuo Houde put down his chopsticks, looked at his father, and said: "I have been gracious to my clansmen all these years, I didn't expect someone to be spoiled, I won't be merciful in this matter!" ”

When Zuo Jizu heard this, he shook his head and didn't say anything anymore, he also understood that this was a state affair. It's just that an old man in the clan came to tell about the past feelings, and Zuo Jizu is also an old man with a soft heart, so he mentioned it to Zuo Houde for a while.

After speaking, Zuo Houde looked at his son again and said, "How is it in the army!" ”

For his only son, Zuo Houde has always been cultivated by his side, first following Zuo Houde to learn how to deal with political affairs for a few years, and the year before last, he was thrown into the army by Zuo Houde to accumulate prestige!

Over the years, Zuo Houde has also passed on the breathing technique to his parents and children, but he has not achieved it, I think it is because they have no system!

Of course, Zuo Yu's body is also very good, and his martial arts are also exquisite, and he is enough to gain a foothold in the army!

Zuo Yu nodded: "It's very good in the army!" ”

Zuo Yu is now a captain, commanding 2,000 people, and at the same time, he is on a temporary post at the Yanwu Military Academy, and he is busy every day!

Zuo Houde nodded, looked at his son-in-law again, and asked, "Qingzhi, how are you doing?" ”

Chen Qingzhi is currently a general of the fourth grade, and he is also currently stationed in Dingcheng. He nodded and said, "Principal, it's okay in the army, but the soldiers are a little excited, I don't know what to do to fight Nanming?" ”

Zuo Houde laughed: "I'm afraid not, the soldiers are a little excited, it's your senior brother who is very excited!" ”

Chen Qingzhi smiled embarrassedly, it was indeed Shi Wansui, Lin Dongshi and other senior brothers who acted in the martial arts academy were very excited, and specially asked him to ask the principal's tone!

Zuo Houde thought for a while and said, "Wait, next year's spring, the soldiers on the ironclad ship are ready!" ”

Since the advent of the steam engine, Zuo Houde has been preparing to build a steam ironclad ship, but later due to power reasons, it has been unsuccessful, but it has been a semi-finished product, but it is enough!

Over the years, Zuo Houde has been building his own water army! Now it's a small scale, and you can fight!

Chen Qingzhi nodded, he was also eager for this battle in his heart, and making meritorious contributions has always been the motto of the Yanwu Military Academy!

……

When Zuo Houde returned to the palace, the first thing Zuo Houde did was to summon Zhang Cang, the head of the Qin Heavenly Prison, who was also the contemporary leader of the Yin and Yang family.

From time to time, Zhang Cang came to Zuo Houde and saluted Zuo Houde with his fists: "Cang has seen Your Majesty!" ”

Zuo Houde waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, the widow has nothing to do, I don't know if Aiqing can talk to the widow about the theory of yin and yang and the five elements!" ”

Zhang Cang is naturally self-reliant, this person from the perspective of later generations, Zhang Cang can also be regarded as a fortunate minister by Zuo Houde's side, at first Zuo Houde only let this person serve as the head of Qintianjian because of Zhang Cang's identity as the head of the Yin and Yang family.

At the same time, Zuo Houde doesn't believe in this aspect very much, so he doesn't care, but Zhang Cangshan is good at playing, and Zuo Houde will play chess with him when he has nothing to do.

This Zhang Cang is also a genius, in his words, he is the only one who has collected the Yin and Yang family for a thousand years, he combined mathematics with the changes of the five elements of Yin and Yang, and further developed it, constructing a large-scale cosmic schema, trying to explain the causes of natural phenomena and the laws of change.

and created the sixteen chapters of "Zhang Cang", which is the great master of metaphysics in the world!

When playing chess with Zuo Houde, Zhang Cang also carried his own private goods in the game, and the way of change of Go was also explained by Zhang Cang with the metaphysics of the Yin and Yang family, and even Zuo Houde couldn't find the slightest flaw.

Zhang Cang's metaphysics is also reasonable, and it is also combined with mathematics and astronomy, which is very vivid, so Zhang Cang gradually became a fortunate minister by Zuo Houde's side!

With such a fortunate minister by his side, Zuo Houde can also do many things in the name of Zhang Cang and continue to do it smoothly, and after Zhang Cang got Zuo Houde's attention, the Yin and Yang family in the Jixia School Palace has gradually been revived!

In this way, the two can be regarded as using each other, of course, this is not Zuo Houde's purpose of coming to Zhang Cang.

After all, he is over forty years old, and Zuo Houde's physical quality has declined a little, of course, at this time, Zuo Houde knows that the effect of abundant qi and blood is to keep him at the peak of his body.

Thirty-one hurdles, women are like tigers, men are like sheep, Zuo Houde's physical fitness has not dropped too much when he is over forty, and he has to thank him for the effect of abundant qi and blood!

The main reason why Zuo Houde came to Zhang Cang was because he had an extra "feng shui" skill, and Zuo Houde dared to say that this was Zhang Cang's private goods when he played chess.

Of course, I have to say that Zuo Houde is really curious about this skill, and he also has a skill bit, so Zuo Houde directly added it and upgraded himself at the same time.

Zuo Houde recruited Zhang Cang just to let Zhang Cang tell him about his "feng shui", Zuo Houde should be upgraded as soon as possible!

Of course, Zuo Houde also discovered that the proficiency of this feng shui was like a big house compared to the breathing technique of the year, and Zuo Houde didn't feel too surprised, after all, everyone's talent for different things is different.

Perhaps, his talent in "Feng Shui" is very high, and of course, it may be that he is more powerful in breathing and has a higher ceiling!

Although Zhang Cang felt a little unfamiliar with Zuo Houde's performance today, in the past, it was all private goods that he had brought privately, how could His Majesty take the initiative to let him explain to him today?

Of course, it should be said that it is still necessary to say, Zhang Cang said: "The many are better than the few, so the water is better than the fire." Jing is better than strong, so fire is better than gold. Rigid and soft, so gold wins wood. The soil is better than the scattered, so the wood is better than the soil. The real is better than the virtual, the homeland is better than the water. The restraint of the five elements should be avoided ......"

Zuo Houde listened to Zhang Cang's lecture, Zhang Cang started by talking about the traditional beginning of the Yin and Yang family, Zuo Houde had heard it countless times, and then Zhang Cang said his own private goods!

The same Yin-Yang classics, Zhang dared to say that he was a master, and created the sixteen articles of "Zhang Cang", so he naturally has his own understanding.

"Respect the Haotian, the sun, the moon and the stars, and the people,...... Since the dissection of heaven and earth, the five virtues have been transferred, and each has its own suitability, and it should be Ruozi! ”

Zhang Cang slowly explained the five elements and finally said that Zuo Houde was also an introduction to metaphysics at this time.

After a short time, he went deep into Zhang Cang's explanation, and Zuo Houde looked at Zhang Cang at this time like a Taoist disciple seeing Li Er.

Zuo Houde didn't ask out loud, and Zhang Cang could always explain.

After the explanation, Zhang Cang said: "There is a way: Xuanzhi and Xuan, the door of all wonders!" Has Your Majesty ever understood? ”

Of course, Zuo Houde understood what Zhang Cang said earlier, but Zuo Houde still didn't know what Zhang Cang did when he finally pulled out a Taoist classic?

Xuanzhi and Xuan, the sentence of the door of all wonders comes from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", Zhang Cang thinks he hasn't read the Tao Te Ching?

Of course, Zuo Houde has never understood the Tao Te Ching in his past and present lives, and the translations of later generations have completely lost the feeling of the original text in Zuo Houde's view!

This feeling is a kind of trickery, which makes people confused and unconscious!

In layman's terms, this is the atmosphere of Lao Tzu's pretending to be forced, which has been destroyed by the translation of later generations!

"The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, the name is not famous! As soon as this sentence is said, although people don't understand, it still feels amazing, but it's different when you add the translation!

Zuo Houde heard Zhang Cang's words, although he didn't understand why he mentioned Xuanzhi and Xuan, the door of all wonders.

But Zuo Houde also felt that this statement was very reasonable, and at the same time said: "There is a way: three flowers gather at the top, five qi dynasty yuan, mutual growth and restraint, real and virtual, virtual and real, everything is nothing, everything is a certainty!" The Lonely King understood! ”

As soon as Zuo Houde's words came out, Zhang Cang was stunned, his last sentence was to make a fool of himself, and sometimes he also said that the words in the Taishang induction chapter were Taoist classics anyway, and they were originally understood by thousands of people.

But Zhang Cang didn't understand what Zuo Houde said in the end, and suddenly he also had a feeling of uncertainty! Of course it's not just him, even Zuo Houde doesn't know what he's talking about!

This is the effect of first-class feng shui - so the mystery is effective!

Of course, Zhang Cang would not be stunned, so he faced Zuo Houde, smiled, and said: "Pangu Sheng Taiji, two instruments and four elephants; Everything has a beginning, and gossip is anti-yuan! ”

Zuo Houde was also smiling, so he made a mystery: "Fate rises and falls, fate is born and dies, and everything is created by the heart!" ”

……

The two of them played a mystery for an afternoon, and they each gained a lot!
