"It's time for you to change your temperament."

Aunt Xue smiled: "Speaking of your sister's marriage, she herself is not in a hurry, but you almost went to the wall; Aren't you saying that people are stingy? ”

“……”

In the eyes of his mother and sister, Xue Pan shrank his shoulders again, not daring to squeak at all.

Aunt Xue continued: "I originally thought that Baoyu was favored by an old lady, and it would definitely be bad in the future, and it would not be a loss for you to marry. ”

Speaking of which.

Aunt Xue had a lot of hesitation on her face, "But now that we have seen it with our own eyes, we know that he is indeed a little out of shape, and there is Brother Cong there to compare ......."

Xue Baochai lowered his head early.

A face flushed with shame!

Regarding Jia Cong, Xue Pan has no opinion.

So he nodded in agreement: "Listening to the people in their house, Brother Cong is good, and he has a knighthood, isn't it hundreds of times better than the one I said before?" ”

Xue Pan's heartless appearance made Aunt Xue can't help but roll her eyes.

"Do you think kissing is the same as when you go shopping on the street? Just give money? ”

Aunt Xue sighed again and said, "Brother Cong'er is a lord and holds military power, and he is a dignified third-grade member, and secretly I don't know how many people are looking at him, how can we fight?" ”

Hearing this, Xue Baochai's expression suddenly dimmed.

Xue Pan frowned, "Then what if I ask my aunt to do it on my behalf?" ”

"She won't be a guarantor for your sister," Aunt Xue said, "I was at the old lady's place yesterday, I listened to her, probably because she wanted to be a matchmaker for your second uncle's sister." ”

"Is that done?" Xue Pan hurriedly asked.

"How can it be that easy?"

Aunt Xue shook her head and said, "Before she could speak seriously, she was pouted back by the old lady and called, 'Wait for Brother Cong and his son to come back'......"

"According to me, my sister will only be able to reach the end of the year, and my mother doesn't have to be in such a hurry to marry her."

Xue Pan opened his mouth to persuade: "My sister is long, and everyone in the backyard is playing together from time to time, maybe one day Brother Cong himself will fall in love with it?" ”

“……”

After a while.

Aunt Xue clenched her fists violently and said unwillingly: "No, I have to go to Mrs. Xing's tomorrow to find out!" ”

…………

Early the next morning.

Jia Cong had just had breakfast when he saw Xiao Tao running in in a hurry, "Third master, there is a small yellow door outside, saying that there is a holy message!" ”

Under the service of Qingwen and others, Jia Cong quickly finished washing.

Not much.

Jia Cong returned to the courtyard, changed into the official uniform of the commander, and went straight to the palace.

It didn't take long to go out.

The news of "the Holy Lord summoned the third master to meet His Majesty in the Qianqing Palace" spread all over the Rongguo Mansion, making many people envious.

Qianqing Palace.

Jia Cong sat on the brocade bench for nearly an hour.

During this period, Emperor Chengde has been reviewing and reviewing the imperial case, and he can't stop at all, so that Jia Cong is secretly speechless, with such a work intensity, it is no wonder that few emperors can live a long life!

Finally.

Emperor Chengde, who had finished criticizing the recital, stretched his waist and rubbed his eyes again.

Looking at Jia Cong, Emperor Chengde laughed at himself: "Since I ascended the throne, there have been endless criticisms every day, and even sleeping and dreaming at night are criticizing excerpts, which is really ......."

Jia Cong, ╭(╯^╰)╮

How do you call me to answer this?!

After speaking, Emperor Chengde himself reacted and waved his hand, "Hey, what am I telling you to do here?" ”

Leaning reclining on the dragon chair.

"You did a good job of crutches yesterday!"

Emperor Chengde said with a smile: "Although it ended in the end, but the successful rescue of more than 60 children can be regarded as meritorious service, let's talk about it, is there anything you want?" ”

Jia Cong was also not polite, "Follow Your Majesty's reward, what do you want, anyway, Your Majesty can't reward your ministers with some useless things, right?" ”

The ball was kicked directly back to the feet of Emperor Chengde.

"You're not polite at all!"

Glancing at Jia Cong, Emperor Chengde said angrily: "I'm not very old, where did I learn so many fancy intestines." ”

Hearing this, Jia Cong only smiled "hehe" and did not answer.

Looking at Jia Cong's lazy appearance in front of him, Emperor Chengde's heart suddenly moved.

"Look at this!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand from the bottom of the stack of finished folds, took out a copy and threw it to Jia Cong, "I ask you to answer, as long as I can satisfy me, I will surprise you!" ”

After taking the fold, Jia Cong opened it and looked at it at a glance.

The excerpt is presented by the general of the conquest - Zhongjing Marquis Shi Ding, about the war in the northern steppe.

I saw that Jia Cong finished reading the recital.

Emperor Chengde asked: "The grassland barbarians, repeatedly violating our Daqian border, the resulting wars are unknown, and the cost of manpower and financial resources is huge, what is Jia Aiqing's opinion?" ”

Jia Cong was stunned.

After a long time, I asked this?

Isn't this the homework that made me copy the braids on the blue star?

first made a draft in his heart, and then Jia Cong said solemnly: "Back to Your Majesty, in terms of conquering the Mobei barbarians, the minister has a few suggestions!" ”

Emperor Chengde's eyes lit up, can this kid really answer? !

"Tell me about it!"

Jia Cong coughed twice.

said: "The barbarians of Mobei are afraid of power but not virtue. If you want to conquer them, you must maim them and beat them so that they will not dare to resist the orders of our great cadres for a short time, so that they can be naturalized......"

Emperor Chengde frowned and said: "But what the former strong men and the prosperous Tang Dynasty spent hundreds of years never did, can I do it?" ”

"This has to be said about the strategy of the Central Plains region towards the northern nomads."

Jia Cong said: "During the Han and Tang dynasties, in the north, when it was strong, it tended to focus on attack, and when it was weak, it focused on defense.

At the same time, the Central Plains has been influenced by Confucianism for a long time, and the way of life is mainly farming, so it is difficult to raise the motivation and demand for expansion to the northern grasslands, which is the fundamental reason for the repeated rise and fall of the barbarians in Mobei. ”

"So what should I do?"

"It's simple, either kill all these barbarians, or tame them!"

"How to tame?"

"Didn't they always believe in the Yellow Religion? Then vigorously advocate the Yellow Religion in Mobei, or make each of them have to send a young man to shave his hair and join the religion, which will not only reduce their desire to kill, but also greatly reduce the population.

Then, a fixed area was set for the tribes, and they were not allowed to roam around, so as to prevent mergers between tribes and the emergence of huge tribes across the steppe.

In addition, it is to ask His Majesty to concurrently serve as the Great Khan of Mengyuan, to deal with the contradictions and frictions of various tribes, so that they can be safe and sound, and at the same time, they can also increase their sense of identity with His Majesty's rule.

Finally, Daqian opened the mutual market with Mobei, allowing all the departments to use horses, cattle and sheep to exchange tea, salt, grain and other things, and in a few years, the original Mobei barbarians will automatically become my Daqian's horse-raising slaves! ”

Emperor Chengde's eyes became brighter and brighter......
