Xiao Tao bowed slightly to the person named Fan Ruoshui: "Fan Gongzi smiled." ”

The statement said loudly: "Don't look at this Fan brother who is shy like a girl, but he is a capable person who never forgets, and he reads poetry and books, but he is not lucky enough to be in the middle of the ranking." I used to work in various lords' houses, but now I am in my house. After that, I saved a lot of things. ”

Xiao Tao nodded clearly. There are quite a few people who read. But there are too few who can pass the test. The rest are staff or counselors in various official offices. It's good to support your family and run for a future. This Fan Ruoshui is a person who didn't pass the exam.

Fan Ruoshui's face flushed slightly. Chong Xiaotao hugged his fist: "It's just a down-and-out scholar." Thanks to Lord Chen's unwavering grace. ”

The statement hurriedly said: "Brother Ruoshui, don't be too humble. Your knowledge is there for all to see. You see, if you look at it casually, you will know that Tao Niang is drawing a layout diagram. She didn't even know what the hell it was. ”

Fan Ruoshui smiled and said: "I used to work in General Pan's mansion, so I know some symbols. This is generally only understood by military generals. "Serve in the regiment.

Xiao Tao was a little curious, pointed to a few places on the picture and asked, "Then the boy said, what do these places I draw now?" ”

Fan Ruoshui looked at it carefully, pointed to the drawings and said: "This is a mountain, I must be able to see it, the horizontal line drawn on it refers to the road, the thick one is the official road, the thin one is the path, and the thin one is a barren path, but it can also be walked." This refers to the flow of water. The width of the river can be calculated according to the proportion, and a solid dot is drawn on it, which means that there are piles under the water that can be tied to the boat; If it is a hollow circle, it refers to the obstacle pile. used to run aground enemy ships; If it is a row of dots, there is a water fence to defend against enemy troops; If it is crescent-shaped, it is a, and according to the difference in graphics, you can see whether it is a sand dam or a stone dam. It's still a wooden dam, or an iron dam. Where the cross is drawn in the middle, there is a way to go; In addition, the place where the cross is drawn is defended by soldiers, and one cross is a thousand men and horses, and a few crosses are the number of defenders-"

Fan Ruoshui talked endlessly, drawing on paper with a pen as he spoke. While listening, Xiao Tao quickly went through the defense map of the naval army that she had memorized in her mind. All the symbols and graphics in it were carefully recalled, and it suddenly became clear. It turns out that the diagram is just from memory, but now it is clear what it means. After Fan Ruoshui finished speaking, Xiao Tao thought about it, and she didn't know what the meaning of the three other graphics was, so she pointed to the picture drawn by Fan Ruoshui and said: "Childe said that this symbol means a warship, if several symbols are connected, is it a row of warships?" ”

Fan Ruoshui looked at Xiao Tao and shook his head, and said thoughtfully: "Connected together, it is a specially built warship road, there are organs and paths below, and the water supply is used for military operations, this kind of water engineering is the most complicated one, as far as I know, only Wankou and Runzhou have it, I don't know where the girl looked?" ”

Xiao Taoxin was shocked, this Fan Ruoshui ghost was very good, and he smiled busily: "I'm just curious, just according to the reasoning you just said." I'm a woman, I know something. The other two figures, Xiao Tao didn't dare to ask again. I'm afraid that Fan Ruoshui will see the clues.

The statement pushed the two out of the desk: "Okay, okay, we're here to chat, not to worry about the country and the people in the middle of the night and talk about military maps." Don't say that Tao Niang is a woman, I, a Wenchen, can't understand what is. Hurry up and talk about something serious. Aren't you in a hurry to ask me to introduce you to Tao Niang, and now you're talking about this nonsense. ”

Fan Ruoshui's face flushed, and she smiled at Xiao Tao, "I just watched Peach Girl dance, and it really deserves its reputation." Shuangyan dances and dances, and the words are iron and silver hooks, unlike ordinary women's pen power. I don't know who the teacher is? ”

The statement smiled: "You are a verbose person, from dancing to words, people don't want to learn by themselves?" I haven't heard of anyone she learned from. The statement thought for a while and said, "Miss He, the word is all about her daughter's Juanxiu, not like it at all; Sub-memorial's? Not like that. Your Majesty's? Not like that. With just these people, who else can she learn from? And my words can't be played. So it must be self-taught. Hahaha. ”

Fan Ruoshui looked at Xiao Tao thoughtfully: "It's just the girl's words, I think it's a little familiar." ”

Fan Ruoshui's gaze made Xiao Tao a little uncomfortable, Xiao Tao only looked at him with a slight smile, and told Qingqing outside the door to make tea quickly. Fan Ruoshui stared at Qingqing's back for a few moments, and then turned his head back. The statement sat down and chatted with Xiao Tao, and heard that Xiao Tao had recently gone to Runzhou, so he inquired about Qi Zhengxiu for a long time.

chatted for a long time, and stated that he was about to leave with Fan Ruoshui: "I won't bother you anymore, let's rest quickly." ”

Xiao Tao also smiled at the statement: "After chatting for a long time, I am also in good spirits." In the future, adults will come often when they are free. He turned his head to look at Fan Ruoshui again, "Childe too, don't see outside." ”

The statement laughed: "Then if you have any docile and well-behaved girls here, you should pay attention to Brother Ruoshui." You can't just be polite. ”

Xiao Tao smiled and said yes. When they were gone, they closed the door tightly and drew out the defense diagram. This Fan Ruoshui is coincidental, this time it is completely clear, where there is a defense, how to deploy, how many men and horses and warships are arranged, and where there are fortifications, all of them are clear. Xiao Tao couldn't help but thump, and it could be seen from the picture that Qi Zheng's defense in Runzhou was the most and the most ambitious. That's where the most important thing is. Break through Runzhou, not far from Jinling. Xiao Tao burned the drawings, and she couldn't tell the taste in her heart.

Xiao Tao only stated that he took Fan Ruoshui to visit the picture freshly, and the rest was just polite words. But I didn't expect that the statement didn't come much, but Fan Ruoshui ran diligently. Every once in a while, I came to Huayuefang to listen to the tune, and watched the dance of the little peach. Every time I will hand it in, I want to talk to Xiao Tao.

Xiao Tao was only surprised, what does this person always do? Qingqing covered his mouth and smiled: "In my opinion, nine times out of ten, he is a toad who wants to eat swan meat and has a crush on the girl." You see, others come at night, this Fan Gongzi not only comes at night, but also during the day, and there is no singing and dancing during the day, so he comes to chat with the girl. Isn't that what a girl you like? ”

Xiao Tao glared at Qingqing: "I think he has a crush on you." Every time I come to talk to you, I have a lot to say. ”

Qingqing pouted: "He's such a big person, and he can't talk about anything even if he talks with me for three days and three nights." And I think he can't wait to visit all the Flower Moon Workshop. It's really greedy, rare and weird. ”

Xiao Tao was stunned: "Does he go somewhere else?" No one is stopping? ”

Qingqing thought for a while and said, "I went to the backyard a few days ago, because he always came, and he didn't go to any taboo places, so no one stopped him." ”

Xiao Tao frowned unconsciously, although there were always some guests who were curious and liked to go around, but from the first time Fan Ruoshui saw him, Xiao Tao always felt a little uneasy. Although he is shy, his gaze is very gloomy, as if he always wants to look into people's hearts. Xiao Tao instructed: "In the future, I will order all places to be guarded strictly, and don't let people wander around, so as not to surprise other guests." Places like ours are meant to be lively in the lively place, and quiet in the quiet place. ”

"Yes." Qingqing responded, glanced out, and raised her eyebrows at Xiao Tao, "I can't stand the chatter, saying that this is not coming again." ”

Xiao Tao turned her head to look, and sure enough, Fan Ruoshui came again. I had to tell Qingqing to pour tea. Nodding at Fan Ruoshui: "Childe is here." ”

Fan Ruoshui didn't care about Xiao Tao's calm face, he still sat down very familiarly, talked a few words with Xiao Tao, and said to Xiao Tao: "I came to find the girl today, and I mainly have one more thing to ask for, I hope the girl can sell face." ”

Xiao Tao was stunned for a moment, Fan Ruoshui could still ask for something on his head, so he said: "Son, let's talk about something first, if you can really help, there is no excuse." ”

Fan Ruoshui said with a smile: "For the girl, it's just a matter of one sentence. After a pause, he said, "In this courtyard, there is a forsythia girl, if she stays in the place where the piano is repaired, she will be buried." ”

Xiao Tao couldn't help but feel a wall in her heart, that forsythia is really the best at attracting bees and butterflies, this Fan Ruoshui has only been here a few times, and he actually hooked up again. What a good means. But Fan Ruoshui opened his mouth, and Xiao Tao couldn't refuse clearly, so he said: "Since Childe spoke, then I will order someone to bring Forsythia to see if it is the person Childe said." Then he ordered the forsythia to be brought from the harp.

After a while, Forsythia, who was dressed in plain clothes, was brought to Xiao Tao, knelt down in front of Xiao Tao's rules, and saluted. Xiao Tao asked a few questions, and Forsythia answered very measuredly. It seems that in the past few years, the piano has been honed, and the temperament has finally converged. Xiao Tao is also relaxed, even so, you might as well sell it to Fan Ruoshui for personal favors, and save him from always coming to trouble him. Then he said, "It's very appropriate." Then according to Fan Gongzi, Forsythia doesn't have to go back to making the piano, but I don't know where the Forsythia girl wants to go? ”

Forsythia bowed to Xiao Tao: "Forsythia doesn't know anything else, if Peach Niang doesn't dislike it, let Forsythia be a drinking prostitute, and it will be easy to see the world." ”

Xiao Tao nodded in agreement, alcoholic prostitutes are not something that needs to be trained, as long as they can drink, are willing to drink, and serve the guests well.

Forsythia became a drinking prostitute, and Fan Ruoshui came more frequently, but he didn't go to Xiao Tao anymore, all in Forsythia. Xiao Tao breathed a sigh of relief. But I am a little worried that such people help the statement to do things, but they are afraid of burdening the statement. I knocked on the side a few times, but the statement was very unconcerned.

Kaifeng, Li Congshan went to visit Zhao Guangyi again: "King Jin, Fan Ruoshui I have already contacted, several letters exchanged, he is willing to serve the Great Song Dynasty." But he wanted to pay a personal visit to King Jin. ”

Zhao Guangyi looked at Li Congshan's eyes a little gloomy: "Do you think he deserves it?" "Zhao Guangyi is the most annoying, these don't know how many catties and taels to put out the score first.

Li Congshan avoided Zhao Guangyi's gaze and said, "He said that there are two generous gifts for King Jin. ”
