Chapter 46: Qin Sheng was puzzled
Chapter 46
Lu Desheng's study is divided into two floors, the outer study is for his family to read, and the inner study is where he handles official business, similar to an exclusive office.
Lu Songli felt that they were spending time there, and they should be able to stay until the two mothers finished discussing things.
When the two arrived at the study, they found that Lu Desheng and Qin Heng were playing against each other.
This outer study room is full of 40 square meters, and there are low couches suitable for reading on both sides of the east and west, and the people who read in these two places almost do not disturb each other as long as they do not speak loudly.
They said hello and went to the other end of the study, where Lu Songli took a book and sat down to read it.
Qin Sheng found that the Lu family actually had a map of Da Li, and at this time, this map was being stretched out and placed on a wooden shelf, and this shelf was placed right next to Lu Songli. Looking at Lu Songli's comfortable appearance again, it is obvious that she has not come to her father's study.
Qin Sheng approached and took a closer look, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became. He is very familiar with Yutu.
The map of the Lu family is no worse than that collected by their Qin family, and it can even be said that it is very close to what their Qin family surveyed. Such a clear and detailed map, except for the emperor, should not be available anywhere else. Thinking about coming to the Lu family, this one should be rewarded by the emperor.
Only then did Qin Sheng have a clear understanding of his future father-in-law's favor.
Although Lu Songli was reading a book, she also noticed his actions, and thought that she was worthy of being a young general who fought in the south and the north in the original book, and the first time she came to the outer study, she noticed the map she opened.
That's right, she took this map from her father, and these days she is busy thinking about what kind of compensation she wants from the Xie family. The proportions of this compensation have to be taken care of, she is not happy to give less, and she is unwilling to give more. This picture is for her to think. After all, the compensation that the Xie family can give is nothing other than gold, silver, land, and rare treasures. Of course, they also have intangible wealth such as connections in officialdom. But their Lu family can't use this, her father has shown loyalty to the emperor, and there is no need to go up. Even without her father's stubble, they wouldn't dare to use the Xie family's connections.
Lu Songli didn't plan not to compensate, but let the Xie family owe this favor and leave it for the future. First of all, the Xie family is definitely unwilling. Moreover, this favor is actually the same as power, and it may be invalid after it expires.
The original owner's life-saving grace is always there, but will the Xie family's favor always be valuable? Not necessarily.
Realizing as soon as possible and maximizing the realization is the purpose of her busy work during this time.
When Lu Songli thought of this, she felt a little depressed.
The Empress Dowager's marriage decree wasted her efforts, but it was a pity that she planned for so long and allowed the situation to develop and ferment, and the Zhao family also involved the bigger referee - the Empress Dowager as she expected. She thought that she could use her strength to take the opportunity to slaughter the Xie family, but now it is gone. Her father and mother will go to the Xie family later, and although the Xie family is willing to give some compensation, it will definitely be much, much less than what she planned to get smoothly.
Forget it, if you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry elm. No matter how much the Xie family compensates her, it will definitely not be as good as a gold medal for avoiding death. Besides, she also has a draft in her heart about what kind of compensation she asks for from the Xie family. When Lu Songli thought about it, she was relieved.
Lu Songli, who came back to her senses, found Qin Sheng sitting in front of the map in a daze, she didn't care about him, leaned back comfortably in the chair, and turned another page of the book.
"Is that all there is to your house?" Qin Sheng asked softly.
"Or else?" Lu Songli replied casually, she didn't think that the map that could be seen everywhere in later generations could be regarded as a military secret here.
Qin Sheng mentioned to her two sentences about the importance of maps.
Lu Songli asked him with a smile, "Do you think outsiders can come in casually here?" Although she didn't put away the map, the study was heavy, and ordinary people couldn't get in.
Although Lu Songli made up the picture, he still heard that she didn't care about this map. Qin Sheng pursed his lips, a little unhappy. You must know that in order to survey and improve this map, especially the part near the border, their Qin family army paid a great price.
"And this map is too spicy, I've never seen such an ugly map." Lu Songli muttered, speaking of the back, almost inaudible.
This map is painted on the territory of Dali, and she is used to the national map being a rooster, and when she saw this map for the first time, she was very uncomfortable. Dali's territory was one-third smaller than that of the rooster, like a lion's head with two ears.
Spicy eyes? What does that mean? She shouldn't have touched pepper and garlic with her hands just now, right? How can it be so spicy to the eyes? Also, what did she say, saying that the picture was ugly? Hearing this, Qin Sheng's expression was indescribable.
"The map is made according to the current actual territory survey and mapping of Dali, so you can't detach yourself from reality for the sake of looking good, right?"
"Of course I know what you said, but if you paint Qianghu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, Samhan and other places, wouldn't it look much better?" Lu Songli said confidently.
Qin Sheng was speechless, no, it was someone else's territory, and you couldn't pull it into your arms for the sake of beauty. However, his eyes kept falling on the map, and a picture unconsciously appeared in his mind, according to what she said, the territory of these foreign tribes was inlaid one by one on the edge of the map, it seemed, it would really look a lot better.
"Wait, do you still know that outside the territory of our country are Qianghu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, and Sanhan?" Qin Sheng suddenly realized this, and added in his heart, as if he still knew the location and size of their territory.
Lu Songli secretly rolled her eyes in her heart, what is there to make a fuss about, she is a person who even knows how the global territory of the seven continents and five oceans is distributed. Although she wears books, Dali has never appeared in the official history, but she speculates that Dali should be equivalent to the official history of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties periods according to the size of the country's territory and customs. In addition, there is relevant information to corroborate, do you know that there are Qianghu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, Sanhan and other departments outside Dali and the approximate size of their territory?
Thinking like this, Qin Sheng looked her up and down.
He probably knew what a woman was like at this time. Some girls' families, from birth to death, have never been out of the city where they were born, and most of the women live within a radius of ten miles between their parents and their husbands' families, unless they encounter natural or man-made disasters and need to go out to escape the famine. For the alien races other than Dali, they are all half-understood.
The women in the capital are stronger than them, but at most they occasionally know one or two foreign names through battles, and they can't tell which direction these foreign tribes are outside of Dali. is not like her, one by one, such as a number of treasures.
Lu Songli stood still, whatever he wanted, didn't he just look at it.
Lu Songli has no intention of hiding her knowledge, talent, vision, etc. One is that the Qin family is about to come to a catastrophe, and she needs the right to speak. Second, she doesn't want to be in charge of her own life, and she doesn't even have the right to participate in the audit.
In the end, Qin Sheng stood in front of Yutu and scratched his head, he vaguely realized that the wife he seemed to be marrying was a bit amazing. Suddenly, he felt that he couldn't understand Xie Zhan, how could he allow the Zhao family to stick a stick in it? is also a man, he really can't understand, is Zhao Yutan better than Lu Songli?
But at present, this is not necessarily the case, it is obvious that Lu Songli is better than Zhao Yutan. Here, it's her brain. In terms of appearance, the two of them have their own characteristics, and they can't be longer or shorter. Qin Sheng felt that he might not be able to understand Xie Zhan's thoughts in his life.
