After they finished introducing them one by one, Mingyi summed up the candidates for the three groups; There are eight people in three groups, two in the massage group, two in the beauty group, two in the hot steaming group, and the remaining two people are doing errand work, as well as the small work of equipping things.

"For the time being, let's divide it like this, the study of Chinese medicine acupuncture points can only be studied when the prince finds someone here, what should you do on weekdays; As for beauty, you come to the palace every hour to study for an hour, Lord Shizi, can you let them in and out of the palace? ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Ting chuckled, "Okay, no." ”

"Master?"

The one who stood on the side and waited was suddenly called out, and he was smart.

"The two over there will enter the palace from tomorrow and talk to the guards guarding the door." After Zhou Ting explained, he didn't plan to ask more.

Bu Wei bowed respectfully and said, "Oh, the slave will be arranged." ”

"Hmm." Zhou Ting nodded lightly, and looked sideways at Mingyi silently begging for appreciation.

Mingyi smiled gratefully at him, without any substantive expression; looked at Zhou Ting's smile stiffened, and turned to look at her arrangement, but didn't say much.

Things are arranged, and the rest of the things will be arranged by the shopkeeper Xi.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see here." Mingyi looked at Zhou Ting with a smile.

Zhou Ting bowed slightly, and led her out of the shop together; Boarding the carriage, Mingyi didn't have the heart to wander around, so he went back to the palace first.

As soon as they left, the shopkeeper Xi immediately closed the shop, and the entire backyard returned to calm; The two girls who were named found Xi's shopkeeper anxiously and asked.

"Madam, are we really going to the palace to find the owner?"

Shopkeeper Xi said: "Call me Shopkeeper Xi in the future, don't call Mrs. anymore; I'm not a lady anymore, I'm just the shopkeeper in the shop, remember? ”

"Yes, the slaves remember."

The two spoke in unison.

"Well, tomorrow you can go to the palace to study with peace of mind, don't talk to strangers, and girls who travel abroad should pay extra attention to their own safety; When you arrive at the palace, don't look around, when you go to the palace, someone must guide you to the way, follow the person who leads the way. In addition, don't talk nonsense, talk less and listen more, and don't ask if you shouldn't; It has nothing to do with you how good the palace is, understand? ”

"Slaves and maids, remember, thank you for the reminder of us."

The two of them felt a little calmer, thanked and retired.

Shopkeeper Xi smiled, just fine, and turned to find his daughter.

on the carriage.

Zhou Ting asked Mingyi, "Yiyi, the medical skills are exquisite, and there are few doctors who can also acupuncture; It may take a few more days to know about acupuncture? ”

"Understand a thing or two." I have studied it specially, if it weren't for the bad exposure, and she studied by the side of the Brahman, she would have gone on her own.

"You have a lot of knowledge." He has never read medical books, and he doesn't know anything about beauty, but he knows two sets of massage techniques; One was learned by a medical girl who followed her mother when she was a child, and the other was to deal with emergencies in the army, all of which were practical techniques to soothe the meridians.

Mingyi chuckled, "I don't know what you know, and you don't know some things I know, it's normal; We still have a long life, and we can try everything we haven't learned, as long as we want to learn. ”

"You're right."

Zhou Ting had a smile on his face.

"You haven't been to the barracks lately?"

"Those who go, those who go less; From the past year to the present, the army has been stepping up training to deal with foreigners who will come at any time, and it is strange to say that the foreigners did not launch an attack during the Chinese New Year this year, burning and looting the surrounding people. ”

Mingyi still doesn't know enough about this dynasty, and after coming for so long, he only learned from Zhou Ting's mouth; Foreign invasions are carried out every year, especially during the period before and after the year, as well as during the autumn harvest, and the grain of the people is robbed from time to time, and there are often conflicts on the border.

Foreigners live on the grasslands, or outside the deserts, and the land is not suitable for growing crops; Most of them are nomadic people, and the living conditions outside the desert are even more difficult.

They want to feed and clothe the people of the country, and the quickest way is to rob the people on the border.

In order to protect the people and food, and also to deter foreigners, the soldiers guarding the frontier will definitely attack; Over and over again, there seemed to be some kind of tacit understanding between the foreigners and the soldiers on the border, and this tacit understanding also allowed the war to expand further.

There is a time limit for foreigners to enter the country, and it is easy to guess the time they choose; After many years of maneuvering, the soldiers of the frontier have long been familiar with their habits.

As long as they come, 90 percent of them will be patrolled by soldiers.

You come and go, and the cycle of war repeats.

"It's a good thing that there is no war, the people are peaceful, and the soldiers don't have to go to war." There must be casualties in battle, and in ancient times, it relied on manpower warfare and fought with cold weapons.

"What you say is reasonable, but they enter every year, and they didn't come this year, which is really weird." Zhou Ting's concern was not that they would suddenly start a war, but that they would unite with the armies of other countries to suppress the border.

The Northwest Army had a total of only 200,000, and 50,000 were mobilized to go to Pingyang Pass, and the remaining 150,000 could not prevent many countries from fighting at the same time.

Mingyi nodded, "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon." ”

"Exactly." Zhou Ting's heart was a little urgent, "What I'm afraid of now is that the three countries closest to the northwest border among the foreign tribes are fighting at the same time, and the nomads are good at cavalry; Our soldiers have no cavalry, and they can't compare with others in this regard, and if the three kingdoms are united, we will have a hard time. ”

"I've seen you on horseback, why don't you have a saddle?"

"Saddle? Yes. Zhou Ting was puzzled, their horses all had saddles, "Yiyi, the horses in the house all have saddles." ”

Mingyi recalled the appearance of the palace guards when they rode horses, which was not a saddle at all, but a thick blanket spread on the horseback.

"Not a saddle, but a tool to fix the body and facilitate better riding; If the saddle I am talking about is matched, the soldiers will be much more stable on horseback, plus stirrups, water le, armature, bridles, halters, horseshoes, people can be as stable as Mount Tai on the horse, but also flexible shifting, if it is well matched with the horse" can also show off skills on horseback.

The rest of the words, she found that she couldn't say it anymore, the more she said it, the more she said, she had no source!

Zhou Ting didn't think about how she knew this at all, "Yiyi, I've never seen what you said, I don't know what kind of thing it is; Can you draw it? I'm looking for someone to do it. ”

If Mingyi really said it was so good, they could have equipped a cavalry battalion.

They lost because they didn't have a cavalry battalion, and they didn't have a lot of sweat and blood; At the beginning of the war, a good sweat and blood horse played a great role, and ordinary horses could not be compared at all.

"Yes, I happened to have seen similar books in Xiwu before, and I was thinking about when I would be able to draw them and see them." Quickly making an excuse, Mingyi quietly observed his expression.

Zhou Ting's face was full of anticipation, and he didn't think much about it at all, "Then let's hurry up." ”

Two more in place~~ Good night
