Chapter 34: No need to kneel
In the imperial study of the palace, Emperor Dayue was dressed in a golden dragon robe, and listened to the people in the audience while flipping through the folds.
The person in the audience is Yu Qian, Yu Qian just came to the palace in a hurry from home to introduce Jia Rong to the emperor what he said about the Mandarin Duck Array, and Yu Qian was also a little frightened by the Mandarin Duck Array.
After reviewing it many times in his heart, Yu Qian felt that the mandarin duck array was impeccable, and this array could indeed be of great use, so Yu Qian hurriedly rushed to the palace.
Yu Qian respectfully introduced to the people in front of him: "Take twelve people as a team, the first one is the captain, the second two people hold a shield, a round shield, and a long shield, and the second two hold wolf stalks, four people in the fourth column hold spears, two people in the fifth column hold short weapons, and the last person is a fireman. ”
"This kind of combat formation with twelve people as a whole, long and short weapons are combined with each other, and can constantly change with the terrain and combat needs, because the left and right symmetry resemble mandarin ducks, so it is named mandarin duck array."
"Oh, what kind of weapon is this wolf, I haven't even heard of it, and what kind of soldier is the fireman?" The emperor, who was sitting on the dragon chair, asked.
Yu Qian replied again: "According to Weichen's student, the wolf bamboo is a weapon that is mainly based on the upper section of the big bamboo and the attached branches next to it, the bamboo is two feet thick, one zhang five or six long, and the sharp blade is at the top, one foot long. ”
"And the so-called firefighters are those who specialize in firing firearms or explosives in battle."
Hearing this, the emperor was puzzled and said: "Oh, the firefighter can understand, but this weapon called the wolf is actually made of bamboo, is it really useful?" ”
In fact, not only was the emperor puzzled, but Yu Qian was also a little puzzled when Jia Rong introduced him to Yu Qian before, but later when he heard Jia Rong's explanation, Yu Qian knew that this thing was very useful.
Yu Qian copied Jia Rong's explanation to him before: "The emperor doesn't know that those pirates mostly use heavy knives, and the wolf is made of big bamboo, with branches attached to the four sides, and the knots are knotted, which can be two feet thick and five or six feet long. ”
"Since it was recommended to me by you, Yu Qian, then I will find someone to practice for a few days to try the results, if it is really as powerful as you said, I will be rewarded." The emperor nodded and said, after a few days, he finally heard a good news, and the emperor was also a little comforted.
The emperor himself also hopes that this mandarin duck array is indeed as powerful as Yu Qian said, so from now on, the coastal areas will not have to worry too much, and it can reduce a lot of burden for Dayue, and you can focus more on the north.
I saw Yu Qian Zhengse and said: "Your Majesty, this array was created by Jia Rong, a student of Weichen, and I just conveyed it on my behalf, and it was useless." ”
Yu Qian will not do the merits of the students, and he does not bother to do it, and now Yu Qian no longer needs merit to prove himself, he is already the emperor's most admired courtier.
The emperor laughed when he heard this: "You! I know, if this battle is useful, bring him to the imperial study, and I will give you a reward for your students. ”
"But your student's name is Jia Rong, but Jia Jing's grandson?"
"Back to the emperor, it is this person, he made a joke in the Guozijian a while ago, and Weichen also accepted him as a student at that time." Yu Qian also replied with a smile.
Soon the emperor calmed down a lot, but there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth and said: "I know him, I like what he said very much, and this time I sent me a mandarin duck array, he is very good, I didn't expect this Jia Jing's descendant to be a talent." ”
"In a few days, the mandarin duck array drill, you will bring him into the palace to watch together."
Yu Qian also thinks that Jia Rong is a talent, usually chatting with Jia Rong, I feel that he can talk about anything, he also studies hard, and he has a very good appetite for himself.
..............
Jia Rong, who was patiently waiting for Yu Qian's return, hurriedly walked up and asked, "Teacher, what's wrong, does the emperor agree to use the Mandarin Duck Array?" ”
"How can it be so fast, the emperor still has to find someone to practice before he can use it, but you can rest assured that the Mandarin Duck Array will definitely be able to use it at that time." Yu Qian replied as he walked.
Hearing this, Jia Rong's hanging heart was finally put down, and the people in these coastal areas could not worry about the pirates and pirates, and Jia Rong was also a lot happier in her heart.
When he arrived at the desk, he picked up the wine on the table, took a sip, and continued: "You are ready, the emperor will let me take you into the palace to watch the battle in a few days." ”
"Even I'm going?" The corners of Jia Rong's mouth twitched a little and he didn't want to go, although he said that he would follow the customs of the locals when he came, he was not ready to kneel down and speak to others.
Yu Qian was a little incomprehensible when he saw Jia Rong's appearance, shouldn't he be happy to see the emperor, how could he make such an expression.
Then Yu Qian asked: "What's wrong with you, why do you look reluctant, others can't see the emperor if they want to." ”
"Teacher, does the emperor have a habit of making people kneel and talk?" Jia Rong thought about it and asked the question.
After getting along for so long, Jia Rong has also roughly figured out Yu Qian's character, unlike the Guozi Priest Wine, Yu Qian is not a person who has the habit of chewing the root of his tongue.
Hearing this, Yu Qian laughed and said, "Are you worried that the emperor will have a bad temper and punish you for kneeling?" ”
"yes." Jia Rong scratched her head and replied.
Yu Qian continued: "Don't worry about it, you don't have to kneel, the emperor's temper is right, if you have the ability to have the emperor's temper, if you do something wrong, the emperor's temper will be bad." ”
"For example, I haven't knelt down once in the seven years of the emperor's reign, but now you have made a meritorious service, what are you afraid of."
"Even if someone does something wrong, the emperor rarely punishes people to kneel, and they are usually cut directly."
Isn't that even more scary?
However, the teacher said that kneeling is a punishment, but when I saw the emperor in the TV series I watched, I had to kneel down and talk, and being able to stand was a gift from the emperor, could it be that the film and television drama is not true?
Jia Rong put her mind down and said, "I thought I was going to kneel down when I saw the emperor, but the students were shallow." ”
Yu Qian scoffed at this, and continued to say to Jia Rong: "Where did you hear this foolish words, if you have to kneel down when you meet, won't the emperor become a tyrant, and then you must not be scolded by the Confucian scholars." ”
"Why don't you even know this bit of common sense, didn't your father teach you, didn't your Jia family teach you?"
"It's no wonder that the descendants of you, the four kings and eight princes, will decline so quickly."
Yu Qian had no scruples when he spoke, and he was directly stunned.
"My dad never taught me that." Jia Rong was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say that he had misunderstood after watching too many TV series.
Film and television dramas are not shallow, this pot has to be carried by the dead Jia Zhen, but it can't be completely dumped, and Jia Zhen really hasn't taught herself this.
"Alas, the Jia family has delayed you for more than ten years." Yu Qian sighed, thinking in his heart that if Jia Rong had been taught by herself since she was a child, she would be even better than she is now.
Maybe his future achievements will far surpass him, but he has been delayed by the Jia family for more than ten years, so that now he even has to ask himself many common-sense questions, and sometimes Yu Qian doesn't want to answer these questions.
