Lin Qingwan freshened up, Lin Yubin handed her the soup that had just been boiled in the kitchen, and said softly: "Auntie, Master Cui has arrived and is waiting outside." ”

"Please come in," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "He also has some friendship with your father, you can stay and have dinner with us for a while." ”

"Yes."

Lin Yubin went down to invite Cui Zheng in, Lin Qingwan didn't see pain on his face, and Cui Zheng didn't see sadness on his face, so he said hello as if he usually met.

Cui Zheng sat opposite her, and said with a light smile the purpose of his visit, "Your Majesty has always been worried about the county lord, so he sent me to visit you." ”

Lin Qingwan bowed slightly and smiled: "It's my fault that Your Majesty is worried." ”

Cui Zheng politely replied a few words, and then paused and said: "If the county lord has any needs, just inform me, and I can write to Your Majesty to meet your wishes." ”

This is for her to confess her last words.

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and thought about it: "There is Master Lao Cui, I will write with Your Majesty." ”

Cui Zheng nodded, then looked at Lin Yubin and began to praise her, "There is the style of a county lord." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "In the future, I will ask Lord Cui to take care of one or two." ”

Cui Zheng saw that she was not humble according to the rules, but entrusted him to take care of people, and then looked at Lin Yubin, whose eyes were red and younger than his two sons, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.

They are all parents, and this heart is the same.

After the thought flashed, he remembered that Lin Qingwan was not Lin Yubin's mother, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

Lin Qingwan couldn't help glaring slightly when she saw it, "Lord Cui doesn't want to shake his head, so I can comfort my dying person." ”

Cui Zheng's neck stiffened, and he hurriedly explained: "The county lord misunderstood, our two families are world friends, so they will naturally take care of their niece, but they are moved by the county lord's motherly heart, which is the gaffe." ”

Cui Zheng didn't want Lin Qingwan to have such a misunderstanding.

Lin Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and wiped her forehead exaggeratedly, and said, "Master Cui is scared of me." ”

Cui Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth, not believing that she was so intimidated.

Although Lin Qingwan was "sick", her appetite was not bad, and after dinner as usual, she sent Lin Yubin away, and she and Cui Zheng talked while eating in the garden.

Lin Qingwan smiled and asked, "Lord Cui came this time to help Lord Sun set up city defenses?" ”

Cui Zheng nodded, but he didn't hide it from her, "There are also recruits." ”

This kind of thing can be hidden from others, but it can't be hidden from Lin Qingwan of the same grade, Cui Zhengdao: "Your Majesty wants to transfer 50,000 soldiers and horses from Henan Mansion, so I urgently need to increase new soldiers, so that I can train new soldiers while the current stability is stable." ”

Hearing that there was going to be conscription, Lin Qingwan's face darkened.

Cui Zheng looked at her face and understood, and didn't say anything more. Imperial Doctor Liu said that Lin Qingwan's illness is tired, and she can't let people be tired before leaving, right?

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and thought for a long time, and finally sighed faintly: "The general trend of the world, if you join for a long time, you will divide for a long time, and you will be together for a long time, this is not something that one person can stop, today's suffering may become tomorrow's sweetness." ”

Cui Zheng doesn't have her soft heart, he is a military general, and even bidding farewell to soldiers who died in battle is the norm, let alone recruiting troops.

Lin Qingwan was only worried for a moment, she was never confined to the moment, and walked to the lotus pond, Lin Qingwan stopped and said: "Not long ago, I asked Mr. Ji for something, and I have to ask Mr. Cui to return to Beijing for future generations to report to His Majesty." ”

It is not good for Ji Yuan to promise her in detail, after all, even if it is a secret fold, there is a possibility of leakage, so for Ji Yuan's safety, Lin Qingwan never mentioned a word.

Cui Zheng's coming this time was convenient for her, otherwise, she would have to entrust it to Zhou Tingshi.

Cui Zheng obviously didn't expect Lin Qingwan to be able to do such a big thing when she was recuperating.

Now the people who are worried about Daliang are not the Fujian and Shu countries, and Dali, which is in a corner of peace, does not need to worry at all, as long as the two countries subdue one of them, then the other country does not need to worry.

It's still the case to subdue by war, let alone subdued by peace?

Doesn't that make it even more like the beam is destiny?

This time, why did he come to help Sun Huai set up city defenses, it was because Min was close to the south of the Yangtze River, and now that Chu was dead, they had to defend against Shu and Fujian, so he came.

Cui Zheng became happy, turned around twice and said: "Don't worry, the county lord, I will definitely send someone to protect Mr. Ji, and I will tell Your Majesty as soon as I return to Beijing." ”

"There's no need to do anything out of here," Lin Qingwan said softly: "Mr. Ji doesn't like to be restrained, the imperial court should not get too close to him, and invite someone when Da Liang Zhen conflicts with Fujian in the future." ”

Now that the state of Chu is dead, with Mr. Ji's prestige, he is still very safe in the state of Liang.

Cui Zheng nodded in response, and he had already begun to think about the relationship between the three kingdoms in his heart.

Lin Qingwan accompanied Cui Zheng to the study, the light had been lit in the room, and she didn't know if she would wake up next time, the feeling of leaving had always been, but she had never left, it seemed that it was not time.

So she will try to keep herself awake for a longer time, and it is good to accompany Lin Yubin more.

Today, Cui Zheng is visiting, and she has to stay sober.

Lin Qingwan asked Bai Feng to bring the chessboard, sat aside and said with a smile: "Master Cui, let's talk about a game?" ”

Bai Feng glanced at her aunt and grandmother with some concern, in the past, she should be sleepy now.

Cui Zheng also glanced at her, he had just learned from Imperial Physician Liu that Lin Qingwan woke up for less than an hour every time, and from the time they talked and ate to now swimming around the garden, the time was already fast.

Playing chess at this time?

Cui Zheng vaguely guessed that Lin Qingwan had something to say to him, so he sat opposite her with a slight smile and stretched out his hand to ask her to go first.

Lin Qingwan turned her head to glance at Bai Feng and bowed slightly at her.

Bai Feng lowered his head and silently withdrew to make her a cup of strong tea to refresh herself.

Lin Qingwan's chess skills are what Ji Yuandu sighs about, and Cui Zheng is naturally not her opponent, but she is not impatient, and she walks steadily step by step.

At first, Cui Zheng was a little careless, and he couldn't help but get serious halfway through, looking at the chessboard and thinking deeply.

Halfway through, he dropped a son, Lin Qingwan smiled slightly, and almost without thinking, he blocked his retreat with a chess piece.

Cui Zheng frowned slightly, looked up at her, and saw that her eyes were shining, and she was looking at him with a smile.

If it weren't for the cup of tea at hand that exuded a strong tea flavor, Cui Zheng would almost have thought that Imperial Doctor Liu was deliberately deceiving him.

Cui Zheng continued to stare at the chessboard and think, he was never a person who gave up easily.

Lin Qingwan played with the chess pieces in her hand and asked, "Has General Cui ever wanted to live a peaceful life in the world?" ”

"Naturally," Cui Zheng fell, and said lightly: "Dreams, everyone will do it." ”

"What are the days after Lord Cui dreams of dominating the world?"

"Naturally, the country and the people are safe."

"Guotai Min'an ......" Lin Qingwan muttered in a daze, and shook her head after half a ring: "How can it be so easy, it is difficult to dominate the world, but it is even more difficult to govern the country." ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent and frugal, it is much easier." Cui Zheng is obviously full of confidence, as long as he can dominate the world, it should not be difficult to want the country and the people.

"But people who don't have long-term worries must have near-term worries," Lin Qingwan said: "Your Majesty's benevolence is a good thing, I'm afraid that you will indulge some petty people." And be prepared for danger in times of peace, the country and the people will ultimately rely on a strong country. ”

"What does the county lord think the country is strong?"

"When the people are rich, the country is rich, if the people are strong, the country is strong, and when the soldiers are strong, the country is strong!"

Cui Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Qingwan, and said with a smile: "Cui also thinks that only when the army is strong is strong. ”

Whether it is the people's wealth or the people's strength, it has no direct relationship with Cui Zheng's position, so the soldiers are strong.

Lin Qingwan pinched the chess pieces and asked with a smile, "Then Master Cui thinks, how can you be strong?" ”

"Continue to recruit troops and maintain the strength of the beam?"

Lin Qingwan smiled, "That's a reckless force." ”

"That county lord thinks ......"

"It's not as good as elite soldiers," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "And the heavy military service also costs the people and money." ”

Cui Zheng frowned, "Streamline the soldiers? ”

"It's not that you have to do it right away, the main thing is to strengthen the army and the elite soldiers," Seeing that Cui Zheng had some disapproval on his face, Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "This is just some of my opinions, after all, I am better at people's livelihood and don't know much about military affairs, but General Cui can discuss it with General Lu, General Xu and General Zhong." ”

Cui Zheng was silent.

Halfway, when he came back to his senses, he saw that Lin Qingwan was sleepily holding his head, so he smiled and asked softly, "The county lord Fei is so strong, he won't just want to talk to me about this, right?" ”

She was more familiar with the other three generals, and it was obviously better to tell them about this matter, so why bother mentioning it to him?

Lin Qingwan narrowed her eyes, and the fatigue that came out of her body almost annihilated her, but she still had a trace of reason, so she smiled: "If I say, I want to persuade General Cui to set up a military academy after the unification of the world, and train enough and excellent generals to let them take your place in the army?" ”

Cui Zheng smiled and said: "Isn't it a good thing to have more soldiers, why should the county lord be so roundabout?" ”

Lin Qingwan raised her head, put down her hand, leaned forward slightly, stared at his eyes and smiled: "When these generals can take charge of themselves and spread out in the army, there will be no so-called General Cui, General Lu and Zhong Jiajun, so General Cui is also willing?" ”

Cui Zheng smiled lightly: "In this world, the soldiers and horses are not from the imperial court, there is no so-called Cui family army, and the lord of Lin County thinks too much." ”

Lin Qingwan laughed and said, "Sure enough, the head of the Cui family is still as righteous as before. My brother was right. ”

"......" Cui Zheng swore that Lin Jiang must have said that he was cunning and cunning.

However, what about opening a military school......

He lowered his eyes and thought about it, it's not impossible, but if he wants to take over the Cui family's army from the Cui family, it also depends on whether the people trained by the school have this ability.

Lin Qingwan got up after laughing, her body was weak, and she almost fell to the ground, Cui Zheng quickly helped her and accidentally knocked over the chessboard on the table.

Bai Feng and the others immediately pushed the door in when they heard the movement, and when they saw their aunt and grandmother with their eyes closed tightly and their faces pale, their hands shook in fright, and they hurriedly went to pick her up.
