Three days later.

The sky was a little gloomy, and the wind was flying all over the sky with tidbits, and it did not disperse around the Taimiao Temple for a long time.

The strange phenomenon moved the hearts of Li Erhe and a minister who came to celebrate the start of the monument, Kong Yingda took the opportunity to advise again: "Saint, the tidbits are all over the sky, this is a good omen, it is the heroic spirit of the soldiers who heard about the monument and rushed to watch. ”

Li Er was tired of hearing the same words for the past two days, frowned and said nothing, and an official next to him answered: "Shengshang, the monument commemorates the soldiers, and it really needs a commemorative text, and there are only a few people in the world who are qualified to write this article, and Kong Saijiu is well-deserved regardless of talent, status, prestige or the identity of the descendants of Kong Sage." ”

"The ministers seconded it!" Several officials took the opportunity to agree, and there was a great tendency to force the palace.

The generals couldn't write gorgeous chapters, although they were angry in their hearts, but they were not good at arguing, they all looked at Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling governed the people well, and he was not as good as Kong Yingda when writing articles, and shook his head with a wry smile.

How can this kind of opportunity to live for a hundred years be cheap for a group of old masters, everyone is unwilling, looking at Li Jing, Li Jing nodded knowingly, and said solemnly: "The thesis is talented, and the protector is not bad, not to mention that this monument is still built under the auspices of the protector, no matter who writes it, what content is written, you should listen to the meaning of the protector." ”

"The pharmacist said that this is very good, what about Qin Aiqing?" Li Er asked curiously.

Everyone's hearts are also full of suspicions, such an important event, the person in charge no longer can't say it, that kid doesn't like to go to court, won't he even come to such a big event, right? looked at Li Jing one by one.

Li Jing didn't know the situation either, and when he saw Jia Youcai hurriedly coming over, he greeted him and asked, "Where is the young master of your family?" ”

"Back to Lord Li, the young master explained last night, let me send the letter to the saint, I don't know where the young master went." Jia Youcai hurriedly brought up a letter.

Li Jing heard that it was for the saint, and he didn't dare to look at it, so he took it and returned and handed it to Li Er, Li Eryi heard that there was no one, only sent the message, and he didn't like it, but he didn't show it, he took the letter and opened it, his face was moved, it turned out that he was taking someone to train to fly to the sky, and the matter was confidential and could not be made public.

There is a separate piece of paper in the letter mentioning the content of the inscription, what words are engraved on the front and back of the stele, and asking Li Er to write it in person and rub it up, Li Er is overjoyed, this is the duty that a courtier should have, unlike the old man Kong, who knows that he is famous and not a son of man.

Li Er studied the engraved content for a moment, and felt that it was simple, sincere, and had a big pattern, and he could show his eloquence and ambition, which was better than any gorgeous chapter, and raised the content, and said with satisfaction: "Qin Aiqing left a letter, proposing to let me write and rub the stone tablet, what do you think of the Confucian sacrifice wine?" ”

As soon as Kong Yingda heard that Li Er was allowed to write, his face suddenly stiffened, and he didn't dare to fight anymore, he couldn't say that the saint was less qualified than himself, right? It was not in harmony with the concept of Confucianism, and when I thought that it was not Qin Huaidao, I felt a lot better.

As soon as the others heard Li Er's writing, they all died down, and the question of who would write it was solved, and an official proposed: "The saint writes, no one in the world is dissatisfied, and it is also the most suitable person, but this content is debatable, it is better to write it by Confucius Sacrifice Wine, please write it by the saint?" ”

"This is a great goodness, and with the talent of Confucius sacrificing wine, he will be able to make a peerless name."

"Yes!"

"Seconded!"

A few people who had just died down were active again and seconded the proposal.

Li Eryi saw that several people were either from the Hanlin Academy or the Ministry of Rites, their level was not high, they were older, but their fame in the literary world was not small, they were all real saint disciples, filial sons and grandsons, this is to add glory to Kong Sheng, the mood is understandable, but the behavior is impossible to accept.

Seeing that everyone still wanted to persuade again, Li Er said with a calm face: "This matter is related to the Jiangshan Sheji, it is a major matter of the imperial court, not a matter for you to wait for the Holy Gate, it should be up to the imperial court and me to have the final say, no need to guess." ”

"This ......"

Several people's faces changed greatly, and they were unwilling, but they didn't dare to speak again.

Li Er said coldly: "Regarding the content, Lord Qin also has a proposal, I think it's good, the north side of the monument is positive, and the book 'People's Heroes Are Immortal', simple, direct, clear, I look very good,"

"The people, what are the people?" Kong Yingda was the first to question.

"yes, I've never heard that."

"The Confucian scriptures do not have the people's sayings, and they are made by force, which violates the old system and does not conform to reason."

Everyone condemned one after another, and their indignation was overflowing.

Qin Huaidao calculated that Kong Yingda would grasp this point, and there was an explanation in the letter, Li Er read it, knew it in his heart, and said coldly: "Listen, the people are the four people as the main body, but it also includes slaves, criminals and all other classes, strata and organizations that approve, support and participate in the great cause of the construction of the Tang Dynasty belong to the scope of the people, and all people, forces and organizations that resist the Tang Dynasty and are hostile to and sabotage the construction of the Tang Dynasty are all enemies of the people." ”

When everyone heard that slaves were also included, they immediately disliked it, how could a dignified doctor be equal to a slave, let alone a criminal, what kind of thing was that? Kong Yingda was the first to jump out: "Holy Lord, no, the four people of the world, the program is always orderly, and the country and the people are safe......"

"Shut up!" Fang Xuanling couldn't listen to it anymore, and couldn't help but reprimand.

Kong Yingda was taken aback by the sudden scolding, and the others also looked at Fang Xuanling, this good old man never black-faced and argued with people, what's wrong today?

Even Li Er looked at Fang Xuanling in surprise.

Fang Xuanling said with a straight face: "Shengshang, the minister seconded Lord Qin's words, all the classes, classes and organizations that approve, support and participate in the great cause of the construction of the Tang Dynasty belong to the people, and the four people are just the law of Confucian division, which does not represent the imperial court, let alone the recognition of the people in the world. Lord Qin Qiong, the Duke of Yiguo, was also convicted by the previous dynasty, and was classified as a criminal according to Confucianism, but the Qin Qiong brothers were the successors of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, so they were not heroes? ”

"That's right, Lao Tzu is still from Wagangzhai, according to the Confucian division method, he is considered a bandit, so is Lao Tzu not one of the four people, not a hero, you make it clear to Lao Tzu." Cheng Biting Jin rushed up, grabbed Kong Yingda's collar, clenched his iron fists, and looked fierce.

Where did Kong Yingda pass by this meeting, his face was so frightened that he didn't know what to say.

Several other officials who seconded Kong Yingda were also dumbfounded, and they couldn't get around.

Li Jing also knew that it was time to take a stand, took two steps forward, and said solemnly: "Holy Lord, it doesn't matter what identity the minister thinks, what matters is whether he has made meritorious contributions to the Tang Dynasty and shed blood, if so, it is the people, and it should be sacrificed. ”

"The ministers seconded it!"

The generals came out one after another to agree.

Kong Yingda saw this situation and knew that the general trend had gone, and he was unwilling, but he couldn't refute it, he couldn't say "Monument to the Heroes of the Four Peoples", right? In the same way, the noble scholars and the low-status farmers, industrialists, and merchants will be treated equally, and the people's heroes monument will not work, where will the scholars be placed?

The key is that most of the Chinese people were born in Wagangzhai, and they were born as bandits, not the four people, and they were about to make a fuss that was not pleasing to them, their faces were pale, and they no longer spoke.

Li Er glared at the other party dissatisfied, for the sake of fame, he didn't want his true face, and said coldly: "Lord Qin's people are very good at one time, the people among the people, including the four people, the criminal people, the slaves, the bandits, etc., as long as they have made meritorious contributions to the Tang Dynasty and support the Tang Dynasty, they are all the people, accurate, comprehensive, Xuanling, turn around and announce to the world, explain clearly, who dares to disturb right and wrong again, I will never agree." ”

At this point, the word "people" was born and decided.

As soon as the sage Chrysostom opened, he followed his words, and no one dared to object.

Li Er snorted coldly with satisfaction, and continued: "The north of the stele is the positive, and the south of the stele is the back, Lord Qin proposed to write three articles, the first one, and since the twenty-third year, the people's heroes who died in the Tang Dynasty War have been immortalized!" What do you think? ”

No one dares to oppose this article, otherwise it will be the same as the debate just now, and it will be difficult to step down.

Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment and said: "Holy Lord, the minister seconded the proposal, Lord Qin mentioned twenty-three years, it should be counted from the beginning of Gaozu Jinyang's army, and it has been exactly twenty-three years so far. ”

Li Er also saw the truth, he was very satisfied with this time formulation, there is filial piety in it, and he can also show his own pattern, if he is not a high ancestor, he has been criticized since the Zhenguan period, and continued: "Second, in the past 60 years, the people's heroes who died in the war of China's unification are immortal!" ”

This China is not another China.

The Han people called their four ethnic groups barbarian, Yi, Rong, and Di, and called themselves "China", which was first seen in the literature of the Zhou Dynasty, meaning the country of the central and the country of the Central Plains.

Everyone chewed on the meaning of this article, and they didn't dare to open their mouths easily.

Fang Xuanling is worthy of being the head of the civil officials, and his talent is unparalleled, and he immediately understood the meaning and agreed: "Shengshang, the nearly sixty years mentioned by Lord Qin refer to the Sui and Tang dynasties, in 589 AD, the Sui army went south to destroy the Chen Dynasty and unify China, ending the nearly 300-year split since the end of the Western Jin Dynasty. ”

"That's right, Lord Qin has not forgotten the old things, which is admirable, and the minister seconded it." Wei Zheng jumped out, as an old minister of the former dynasty, he didn't want future generations to forget those glorious years, those heroes who died fighting to defend against foreign people.

Kong Yingda didn't dare to jump out to oppose it, but it was really the ancestors who also contributed to the Sui Dynasty.

Others dare not object, who does not have an inextricable relationship with Sui?

Li Erxin has a generous heart, and he will not deny the merits of the Sui Dynasty, the initial establishment of the three provinces and six ministries system, the consolidation of centralized power, the formal implementation of the imperial examination system to select talents, the weakening of the monopoly of the clan officials, the establishment of the political hall discussion system, the supervision system, the performance appraisal system, the strengthening of the government mechanism, the construction of the Grand Canal and the gallop to improve water and land transportation, the improvement of the government and military system, the implementation of the uniform land system and the revision of the military service, to reduce the pressure on the peasants' production, and the adoption of measures such as the large Suo Maung Yue and the loss of household registration to increase fiscal revenue.

During the Sui Dynasty, there were many heroes, resisting foreign races and dying for national independence, how can we not commemorate and remember? !

The second article passed smoothly, and Li Er continued: "The third article mentioned by Lord Qin was from the beginning to the Yaoshun period, and from then on, in order to oppose internal and external enemies, fight for the independence of Yan and Huang and the freedom and happiness of the Chinese people, the people's heroes who sacrificed their lives in all the struggles are immortal! ”

The term Huaxia was first seen in the 26th year of Xianggong (547 BC) in the "Zuo Chuan": "Chu lost Huaxia", and the "Shangshu Zhoushu Wucheng" also mentioned that "Huaxia is barbaric, reckless." The reference is the princes of the Central Plains, the ancestors of the Yellow River Valley, and the name of the predecessor of the Han people.

Everyone dare not refute this article, Confucianism advocates the rule of Yao Shun the most, if you oppose that era There are no heroes, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?

The inscription passed smoothly in three days, and Qin Huaidao was not there, but he had already calculated and strategized.

At this moment, everyone felt Qin Huaidao's intelligence and strategy, admiration in their hearts, and jealousy.

Li Er was also dissatisfied, this kid was so calculating, he ran away, but let Lao Tzu stand on the platform and command Lao Tzu to read the content of the inscription, what a great ability, but the writing does have a pattern, magnanimity, tolerance of the world, and selflessness, even after a thousand years, no one can find fault.

Thinking that the inscription was written by himself and his name was signed, Li Er's complaint to Qin Huaidao disappeared, beckoned Jia Youcai to step forward, and asked, "The young master of your family is not here, and this monument is out to preside over the construction?" ”

"Back to the saint, the young master explained carefully before leaving, left the drawings, and had a bottom in his heart, and he would not miss a big event." Jia Youcai said confidently.

"Oh, bring me the drawings."

Jia Youcai hurriedly handed over a bunch of drawings, with renderings and construction drawings on them, which were clear at a glance.

Li Er took a look at it at random, found the renderings, looked magnificent, solemn and solemn, majestic and magnificent, the upper seat is square, the pedestal is a large and small two-layer Sumeru seat, the upper small Sumeru seat is engraved with peonies, lotuses, chrysanthemums, drapes and other eight garlands around the seat, the lower Sumeru seat waist is inlaid with eight huge white marble reliefs on all sides, it is the key battle of the Tang Dynasty, most of them are their own command, and the heart is very happy - stinky boy, be rewarded!

It's not okay to reward Qin Huaidao, that kid's identity is enough, high enough, and if you reward it again, you will not be rewarded in the future, and there will be trouble, Li Er looked at Jia Youcai: "I remember that you are an old man next to Qin Qiong, you have meritorious deeds, build it well, I will reward you with the title of a founding county man." ”

The Tang Jue is divided into nine grades, and the men of the founding county are the last, but they can also eat 300 households, and not everyone can get it from the five grades.

Jia Youcai has followed Qin Qiong for many years, and he can be regarded as well-informed and live a transparent life, so he can see that he is stained with Qin Huaidao's light, but he did not refuse, and solemnly said: "Thank you for your favor." ”

"Good life and errands." Li Er said a word of encouragement and looked at Li Jing: "This matter is also the host of your research institute, Huai Dao is no more, watch more, if someone dares to come to the festival, there is no need to ask for instructions, just arrest it, and severely punish it." ”

"Obey the order!" Li Jing agreed.

Li Er returned the drawings to Jia Youcai and left with the group.

……

Qin Huaidao didn't know all this, and took a hundred carefully selected members of the village protection team to Jingyang Tea Mountain, where the mountains are high and dense, the people are inaccessible, and there is a tea house, which is the most suitable for training hot air balloon flight.

The old man in the tea house had already come to take care of it, and recruited 300 homeless people, all of whom were young men with strong blood, who were raised for a period of time, and their bodies recovered, and the homeless people were miserable, and everything was in order.

After the team settled down, Qin Huaidao chatted with the old man in the house for a while, and then visited, pointed out that the existing problems were rectified, and then took a hundred people into the mountain to train and fly.

The hot air balloon is super empty and simple, just need to master the heat, the most difficult thing is to practice courage, get used to stepping on the ground, suddenly fly into the sky, easy to panic, hairy, cold, brain loss of thinking and judgment, easy to make mistakes, mistakes are death, especially for those who are afraid of heights, Qin Huaidao chose to practice courage first.

Coming to a canyon about ten meters long, Qin Huaidao asked people to cut thick vines, overhead both sides of the bridge, the vines are like iron chain bridges, but they are not strong enough, strong, swaying in the wind, looking scary, Qin Huaidao does not want to have a senseless sacrifice, let people lay a wooden plank below to facilitate stepping, and two convenient grippers are placed on the waist.

Everything was ready, Qin Huaidao asked everyone to line up, and said solemnly: "Everyone, those who have the courage to pass through the vine bridge will stay, and follow your young master to do an earth-shattering event, so that you can glorify your ancestors and leave a name in history, and it doesn't hurt if you don't have the courage to pass, you can only miss the opportunity, and you can't complain about others, who comes first." ”

"I'll come." Xue Rengui said first, as the captain of the Zhuang protection team, it is his duty to shirk it.

Saying that, Xue Rengui came to the mouth of the rattan bridge, spread his hands, kept his balance, stepped on the wooden plank on it and went directly, not grasping the fixed vines on both sides at all, walking very steadily, but giving people a feeling of leisurely walking.

Qin Huaidao secretly praised, worthy of being a master, this balance and courage are amazing.

They are all at the age of being strong in blood and not admitting defeat, with Xue Rengui taking the lead, they are even more courageous, and they take turns to step forward, most of them support the fixed vines on both sides to pass, and a few learn Xue Rengui's way to pass, but there is also one person who is estimated to be congenital fear of heights, and instinctively panicked after stepping on it, sweating on his face.

Qin Huaidao was worried about falling to his death, so he hurriedly stepped forward and dragged the person back, looking at the other party's pale face, he was a little regretful, and comforted: "Rest for a while, slowly, go back and try again, if it doesn't work, then there is no way, it is a disease, called congenital fear of heights, there is no rule of law, this young master will not blame you." ”

"Xie Shao's shirt, I'...... I still want to try it. The other party was unwilling.

"Okay, go back and try again, and the others will continue." Qin Huaidao shouted.

The rest continued to pass, and it didn't take long for someone to be afraid of heights, so Qin Huaidao had to rush up and drag the people back until everyone had passed, leaving five people who were afraid of heights, this proportion was lower than expected, Qin Huaidao was very satisfied with this, and waited for a while, so that no one continued to try.

However, the congenital fear of heights was difficult to overcome, and after trying to no avail, Qin Huaidao gathered the five people together, and after a few words of comfort, he said: "Give the five of you a character, there are still three hundred young men in the tea house, and it is also a great achievement to train them well with the methods of this young bishop." ”

"Really?"

"Young Master Xie, you must do a good job."

Seeing that there was no punishment and no abandonment, the five were grateful, and agreed with their mouths.

"The five of you are separated, no one brings sixty people, fifteen days, go back to the young master to check, teach you to be the team, the best one is the captain of the squadron, go back by yourself." Qin Huaidao admonished.

As soon as the five of them heard that they were going to compete, they could still be the captain after bringing it, and they were overjoyed, and hurriedly went back after saying goodbye.

Qin Huaidao continued to train, this time not through the sky, but through the air swing, cut a big tree fixed on the cliff, made a swing with vines, one by one took turns to swing, people flew around in the air, below is the canyon, if you fall down, you will not die, the most is the courage to take the postgraduate entrance examination.

At dusk, everyone was tired and exhausted, they didn't bother to eat lunch, and their hungry chests were attached to their backs, but Qin Huaidao did not lead the team back, but instead gave everyone a formation, a small team of ten people, choose the captain by himself, a total of nine teams, and go out to hunt, and the remaining five people were taken by Xue Rengui to find firewood to make a fire and build a shelter for use at night.

Until it was dark, the nine squads that had dispersed returned, each with a harvest, meat, wild fruits, wild vegetables, there was no shortage of them, everyone was full of food and drink, Qin Huaidao gathered everyone together, and said: "Everyone, it's a long night, sleeping is a pure waste of time, this young master hasn't trained you for a while, and he will teach you hidden and team tactics every night in the future." ”

Everyone's eyes lit up and they became excited.

Xue Rengui asked: "Young Master, lurking and hiding Wangwen Shengyi, what is this team tactic?" ”

"Team tactics can be understood as the art of joint attack, how two people should cooperate in the face of an enemy, how to cooperate in the face of multiple enemies, in the same way, a team in different environments, different enemy numbers, how to cooperate in combat, how to cover each other and advance, etc., there are skills and methods, which is more reasonable to call team tactics."

Everyone understood the general situation when they heard it, and they became more and more happy.

Qin Huaidao continued: "I taught everyone the method of physical training, knife technique and fighting skills, all of which are individual combat, this team tactics are based on the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers, once practiced, a ten-person squad can kill a hundred people, and when you learn, this young master will select fifty people from among them to teach more advanced tactics, whether you can be selected depends on yourself." ”

As soon as everyone heard it, they were not sure, there were actually more advanced tactics, although they didn't know what they were, but it didn't matter, what the young master taught was already shocking, unheard of, and the advanced ones must be more magical and powerful, and they secretly made up their minds that they must train hard, and they will get it.

Even Xue Rengui is not sure, it is amazing enough for a team to kill a hundred enemies, and there are even more advanced tactics, what will it be? His gaze became eager.

Qin Huaidao saw that he had successfully aroused everyone's enthusiasm and competitiveness, so he began to teach camouflage techniques, leading everyone to a place with lush bushes, and not talking nonsense, looking for local materials, what branches, leaves, grass, fine vines, etc., skillfully weaving a camouflage suit, asking everyone to turn their backs, and then found a place to lie down, put on the camouflage suit, and motioned everyone to turn back.

The crowd looked back with curiosity, what about people?

This magical scene stunned everyone, and even Xue Rengui couldn't feel the hiding point, and said, "Brothers, spread out and look for it, be careful." ”

Everyone scattered to look for it, but where could they find it?

After a while, Xue Rengui gave up and shouted: "Young master, I am served, and I ask the young master to dedicate himself." ”

When the words fell, Xue Rengui felt that there was something abnormal next to him, and when he looked down, it was actually Qin Huaidao, who was getting up and lifting his disguise, the distance was only one meter away, and he was suddenly horrified in his heart, if this distance was used for assassination, wouldn't it be a hit with one blow, and there was no escape? If it is used to behead enemy generals, wouldn't it be easy?

Thinking of this, Xue Rengui realized the magic and value of this latent concealment technique, his breath became short, and he said solemnly: "Young master, this technique is too magical, please teach me young master." ”

"Young Bishop, please." Everyone shouted one after another, convinced, and couldn't find it under their noses, such a method was simply incredible, and it could be called a fairy technique.

Qin Huaidao did not hide his selfishness, and patiently taught them, these people will be the foundation of their own lives in the future, and the hole cards, from theory to specific means and skills, are very carefully.

Before I knew it, it was late at night, and everyone returned to the camp, arranged their shifts, and rested separately.

In the following days, Qin Huaidao practiced courage and balance for everyone during the day, and taught the art of concealment at night, five days later, seeing that everyone had mastered the same, they gathered together and began to teach the hot air balloon flying method, which is simpler, the airbag puffs up on its own after filling the wind, and rises, but it cannot be lifted into the air.

Qin Huaidao put the burned coke into the stove, threw some flammable wood soaked in fire oil, and the fire started, Qin Huaidao sat in the hanging basket and said: "It's all good, this young master will show you once, remember, there is air in the air, called air, when the air is heated and expanded, the hot air balloon rises upward, if you want the hot air balloon to fall, slowly remove the fire, the hot air balloon will begin to fall, don't withdraw too fast, otherwise you will fall to death." ”

What cold air, hot air, gravity, buoyancy, is too high and deep, it is difficult for everyone to understand when you say it, just simple and rude, just explain the main points.

At this time, the air in the airbag is heated, the air is discharged, the gravity is less than the buoyancy, and the hot air balloon slowly rises into the air, and everyone is stunned, full of incredible, people can really fly into the sky?

Seeing that the hot air balloon was getting higher and higher, a member of the village guard team couldn't help but say: "Captain, the young master can really fly into the sky, it must be a heavenly immortal." ”

"Nonsense, the young master's means are all over the sky, unheard of, not what is the immortal, the young master is willing to pass on this magical fairy art to everyone, learn hard, and serve the young master in the future, if you have two hearts, Lao Tzu will be the first to spare him, do you remember?" Xue Rengui warned.

"Don't worry, the young master is benevolent and righteous, and he will never dare to have two hearts."

"That is, whoever dares to have two hearts, Lao Tzu will destroy his whole family."

"That's right, the young master is benevolent and righteous, we can't ignore our conscience."

Everyone expressed their stance one after another, their eyes were fanatical, and they betrayed with such a young master, isn't that stupid?

Qin Huaidao in the sky was a little emotional, it was still too slow, too unsafe, and it couldn't be compared with a helicopter, but it was not bad, he was the first person to fly into the sky, right? I don't know how history will be written.

After flying at a certain height, Qin Huaidao controlled the temperature and landed, and when he saw that he was deflected by the wind, he hurriedly pulled the rope to adjust the angle, and could not achieve absolute control, at least not to fly too far, and the people below saw the hot air balloon flying away, and hurriedly caught up.

Running all the way, he finally found Qin Huaidao on a hillside, and when he saw that it was intact, he was shocked, and he was inexplicably a little awe-inspired, Qin Huaidao didn't think much about it, and pulled everyone to explain the control methods and essentials, and listened carefully one by one, life is a matter of heaven, and no one dares to be careless.

After the explanation, Qin Huaidao signaled to who would try first, Xue Rengui couldn't wait to jump out, everyone was not good at fighting, watching Xue Rengui fly to the sky, his eyes were full of excitement, envy, and - fanatic!

The young master is a god who descends to earth, and it is normal to be able to fly.

This ordinary mortal can really fly?!

In the following days, Qin Huaidao trained everyone to fly during the day and taught team tactics at night, and he was so busy that he didn't know that a shocking event had happened in Chang'an City.
