"Okay!" the Mongol sergeant revered the strong, and although Boyan was not very glorious in winning, his image of being brave and brave and martial was deeply popular. Regardless of friend or foe, they all secretly admired and cheered. Boyan rushed forward, grabbed his banner and waved, and everyone cheered even more.

Qi En's eyes were like lightning, and he swept around, and sure enough, he saw a figure disappear in a flash. Secretly awe-inspiring: "There are still such masters in the barracks." I was careless. Just now, he blocked the banner thrown by Boyan, and he could have successfully intercepted it. But the blade suddenly broke, and the reason was that someone secretly shot and hit Zien's wooden knife with a flying stone. The depth of this person's skill is far above Qi En, and even Boyan is probably inferior. Moreover, this person's technique of catapulting flying stones is the same as Boyan's move of killing Wuliang and Seyin. Zien couldn't help but wonder.

The victory and defeat have been divided, Yelu Chucai announced that Boyan had won, and Qi En's generals were all deeply ashamed. The anxious Nashan put the big knife still on the ground, and scolded: "What kind of bullshit rule is this, that kid doesn't have a single soldier, but it's just because he broke our banner, even if he wins? ”

Ah Shu said in a deep voice: "Nashan, don't be unreasonable. This rule was formulated by Lord Xiangguo himself, and I can only blame me for my incompetence, and ask the general to punish him. All the sergeants also knelt down and bowed down together: "Please punish the general." ”

Zien helped everyone up and said with a smile, "What am I punishing you for? Boyan is known as a victorious general and fought bravely, but today he was defeated by you, and he showed his face in the entire Mongolian military camp. I should celebrate your achievements. As for the outcome of the game, I don't care. The real contest should be on the battlefield of the future. Why bother competing with your troops in a simulated exercise. All the sergeants felt justified. The generals organized their teams and brought them back to their schoolyards. He and Boyan have met Wokotai and others.

"Okay, well, today's battle is really an eye-opener for this king. Since he was a child, this king went out with his father to fight in the south and the north, and there were 100,000 soldiers under his command. But there are few wonderful battles today. General Boyan is brave and invincible, worthy of one of the best generals in Mongolia, although Qi En is defeated, he is the first in the world. Whoever wins today, this king has no regrets. When Wokotai saw the two of them coming back, he hurriedly got up to greet each other, looking very happy.

Boyan looked high-spirited, and said with a smile: "The prince has won the prize, Lord Xiangguo, the last general TOEFL, won a small victory, and finally won back a game." Now that the two sides are tied one by one, the key is in the third game. Let's ask the question!"

"Thanks to your self-knowledge, you are indeed entrusted with the blessing of Lord Xiangguo. Otherwise, you can slap your ass and walk away now. Nari said sourly when she heard this. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with Boyan's speculative victory. Although she is a princess, she was born in Mongolia, and she never pays attention to these clichés when she speaks and acts, so she has no words to hide. Wokotai coughed awkwardly and reprimanded: "Nari can't talk nonsense. General Boyan is brave and good at fighting, and everyone can see it. The theory of victory and defeat can not be influenced by the words of one family. Don't be surprised, please come up with a third question!"

Yelu Chucai smiled, not very concerned. He stroked his long beard and said, "This third exam is different from the first two. It's a literary exam. Princess Nari is both talented and martial, and this is the choice of the horse, of course, Wen Taowu is proficient. The previous two school exams, one is ability, the other is strategy, and this third test is the way of governing the country through the world of the two. ”

Mu Huali and Shu Lu Getu glanced at each other, and both looked at Boyan. The Palin family has a family lineage, and Boyan also loves Han culture, and is a famous Confucian general in the Mongolian military camp. If you talk about the way to govern the country through the world, except for Yelu Chucai, I am afraid that few people can match Boyan.

Boyan was secretly happy in his heart: "God really helps me!" immediately preemptively said: "Xiangguo's question is, Boyan did his best." Yelu Chucai nodded and said, "There was a famous minister in the Tang Dynasty, named Wei Zheng. He once said: It is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to rule the world. It can be seen that this way of governing the country is far more difficult than the next empire. I, the Mongolian emperor, the monarch of the four seas, conquered Europe and Asia, the territory is unprecedented, the territory is unprecedented, and the territory is unprecedented. But it is easy to lay down this country, but it is extremely difficult to govern it. If one day, our Mongol army will sweep the four seas and unify the countries. So what should be done first?"

As soon as Yelu Chucai's voice fell, Wo Kotai and Mu Huali couldn't help but glance at each other. Since the unification of the Mongol tribes and the conquest of Genghis Khan, the territory has continued to expand, and the number of subjects has increased, although the Mongol army has never encountered great pressure of life and death. However, internal problems are also increasing. If one day, the whole country will be defeated. So how should this country be governed? Yelu Chucai laid out this question in advance, and everyone couldn't help but listen carefully to see how the two of them answered.

The two pondered for a moment, and Boyan spoke first: "I'll answer first! Na Ri said coldly: "Are you afraid that my little white brother will finish talking first!" Bo Yan turned a deaf ear, and Yelu Chucai nodded to signal that he could start.

Boyan cleared his throat and said loudly: "I, the Mongol Empire, fought in all directions, and I fought the country right away. When it comes to governance, it can be solved by force. Seven years ago, the fourth prince Torre went on an expedition to the Jin Kingdom and captured several provinces of the Jin Kingdom, but once the army left, it was difficult to govern. Thieves were rampant, bandits were infested, and the city's security regulations were gone, causing the military and the common people to suffer greatly. The foundation of governing the country is in the law. Although our Mongolia is a saint descended from heaven to unify Mongolia and promulgated the law of the black steppe, it is only the most primitive and simple legal decree of the steppe. Then the expedition to Kharazi touched, and the disadvantages gradually appeared. I heard that Lord Xiangguo joined the army and enacted the Eighteen Laws to solve this problem, which was a temporary law, and social order gradually stabilized. Therefore, Boyan is not talented, and believes that after the founding of the country, the first priority is to legislate. As the old saying goes: The one who decrees the law is also the life of the people. It is the foundation of governing the people. As long as the laws and regulations are issued and the orders are prohibited, the society will be stable, the sentient beings will be educated, the benevolence and filial piety will be advocated to govern the world, Confucianism will be emphasized, the enke will be opened, the talents will be accepted, the taxes will be light, the people's livelihood will be protected, and the road will be widespread, then the world will be unified and the country will be stable. I wonder what Sangkoku-sama thinks?"

Yelu Chucai smiled slightly: "The old man started writing temporarily, and the cheap eighteen things formulated were modeled after the laws of the Jin State and several important laws of the Han people, but the old man's own ideas are very few. This is not enough for the Fang family. I am really ashamed to be raised by General Boyan today. The general's judgment is far more than that of the old man. The unification of the world requires strict laws to correct the people's customs. However, General Zien must have more insight. I'll hear you. He saw that Qi En heard Bo Yan's words, and faintly disdainful, so he interrogated Qi En.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Qi En, this little person who was originally ordinary and unremarkable to them had refreshed their three views more than once, thinking that he was a Han himself, I don't know if he still has a unique opinion at this moment.

Qi En suddenly smiled under the gaze of everyone, and turned to ask Xiang Boyan: "Dare to ask General Boyan, before you solve various problems such as hooligans and ruffians, groups of thieves, murder and excess, and impure folk customs, can I ask first." What is the reason for this phenomenon?" Bo Yan said coldly: "Are you not good at ear? I have already made it clear just now. The country has just been reunified, there is no unified national law, there is no way to follow, there is bound to be social chaos, there can be no orders and prohibitions, and the majesty of order is gone. Therefore, murderers are everywhere, thieves are in groups, and the people are not able to make a living. ”

Qi En laughed and said, "According to General Boyan's intention, it is because the country does not have suitable laws, so the people's customs are not pure. As far as I know. In ancient times, when the state was not established, the sages ruled the country, and there was never any complicated law. The saint rules the world with his hands down, so that the Tao is not forgotten, the night is not closed, and even if he makes a mistake, he only paints the ground as a prison. The folk customs are pure and true. On the contrary, the descendants of later generations have more and more laws, but the folk customs have never been as simple as they have been heard. What is General Boyan's explanation for this?"

"This..." Boyan couldn't help but stop. Zien didn't wait for him to think, and then said, "According to Zien." The first thing to do in the reunification of the country is only four words. Amnesty to the world. ”

"Amnesty for the world?" everyone looked at each other, puzzled. Only Yelu Chucai's eyes were filled with appreciation. Motioned for him to continue. Qi En explained: "The ancients said: Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, and establishing the world with virtue. If it is not a ghost or a god, its god does not hurt people, if it is not a god, it does not hurt people, and a saint does not hurt people. That is to say, in governing the country, we must not be in a hurry, and we must not fail to grasp the heat. Both are compatible with each other, and only then is the way to govern the country. During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was an overlord of the Central Plains, named Qi Huan Gong, once, Qi Huan Gong conquered a Lu country and defeated the elite of Lu State. However, when accepting the surrender letter of Lu Guogong, he was held hostage by Lu Guo's general Bao Mo and forced Qi Huan Bus to return to the land that had been occupied. Qi Huan Gong was helpless and agreed to Mo Mo's conditions. When he returned to the State of Qi, he wanted to raise troops for revenge. was dissuaded by the virtuous minister Guan Zhong. said, don't give Lu land to the country, but it's just a momentary speed. If we lose our trust in the princes, the people of the world will not help us. Duke Qi Huan adopted Guan Zhong's suggestion and not only returned the land of Lu, but also pardoned Luo Mo's sins. Duke Qi Huan's move, the princes of all countries felt that Duke Qi Huan had faith, so they all relied on Qi State. Duke Huan of Qi surrendered his troops without a fight, and the alliance of the Nine Kingdoms ascended to the hegemony of the Spring and Autumn Period. The same is true for governing the country, only the virtuous live. The rule of law is better than virtue and the education of sentient beings. General Boyan just said that thieves are everywhere, and the ruffians are in trouble. Let's see, how to write the thief's stealing words. One time above, one dish below. If a person doesn't even have a bowl to eat, will he not be a thief and wait to die? Those who enforce the law do not understand their reasoning and do not investigate their actions, but they only act in accordance with the law, but they do not know that the law is great, but it is no more than a reason, and the reason is great, and it is no more than a feeling. How can the people survive when they lack food and clothing? In the long run, the government will only force the people to rebel, and the world will be in chaos. You claim to have studied Confucianism since childhood, but you don't have a good heart for the people, you have compassion for the people, and you govern the country through the world, how can you generalize the whole word of the law? Only by serving the people with virtue, broadcasting benevolence and righteousness, giving amnesty to the world, and writing with the four seas, and the subjects of the whole country are like the emperor's grace, how can you not be sincere and obedient? The six animals are prosperous, the businessmen do not use gold silk to avoid the law, the officials do not use their power for personal gain, and the mountains and fields do not produce strongmen in the green fields. This is the foundation of governing the country and the words of rejuvenating the country. ”

Qi En's words were red-faced, but Wokotai heard his eyebrows flying. Before the words fell, he applauded three times in a row. Joy in the form of color: "I Mongolia has this good talent, just like a fish has water, like Bole has a thousand miles of horses." ”

Qi En smiled and bowed: "Wang Ye Miao praised." Qi En was ashamed. I wonder if General Boyan has anything else to say?" Boyan opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word to refute it. Yelu Chucai said with a smile: "In this way, this scene can be regarded as General Qi En's birth." Good, good, good. It seems that this is really a good son-in-law chosen by God. Congratulations to the prince, congratulations to the prince. "Mu Huali, Naimazhen. Shulu Getu also got up and bowed down: "Congratulations to the prince for getting this good son-in-law." ”

Wokotai signaled that everyone didn't need to be polite, but he was very proud in his heart, and he couldn't stop smiling. While modestly said: "They are all little girls who are wise and talented, and this king is beyond their reach." Everyone was very happy when they heard this, but Nari's face was full of crimson, and she said shyly: "Father, why are you..."

Wo Kotai looked at his shy daughter and couldn't help laughing: "Na Ri is this shy? In the past eighteen years, this is also a rare anecdote! Everyone leaned back in laughter, and Nari was ashamed and angry, stomped her feet and pretended to be angry: "Father, you are canceling me, I will ignore you." Wokotai pretended to be scared and was startled: "Ahh That's not good. This girl hasn't married yet, so she doesn't take her father seriously. Feng Shui takes turns, and it seems that now the king has to curry favor with his future son-in-law. Wo Kotai smiled and looked at Qi En: "Qi En listens to the seal." ”

Qi En was busy kneeling on the ground, only to hear Wo Kotai say: "Qi En, you and Nari secretly got along, and the king should have punished you heavily." Fortunately, the national teacher made it clear for you, and bravely overcame the difficulties, this king believes that you and Nari are truly in love. This king has a word first, you and Boyan, whoever can win, this king will marry his daughter to him. Now that this king is talking, from now on, he will make you the concubine of the Eastern Dynasty. Ten days later, you went out with the king to Western Xia, and after your triumphant return, the king himself held a wedding for you. When Qi En heard this, his heart was first happy, and then, a trace of confusion flashed in his mind. It's just that this thought flashed through him, and then he bowed: "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

Wo Kotai laughed and said, "Silly boy, do you still call me the prince?" Qi En hurriedly changed his words: "Father-in-law." Mu Huali and Yelu Chucai looked at each other and smiled, and Shu Lu Getu's face was gloomy, and he said: "Lord Wang, the matter here is over, and the last general will not bother." Leave. Wo Kotai woke up to realize that he was a little carried away, and hurriedly said: "General Balin, although this king and the general can't be in-laws, it doesn't affect your personal relationship. He also relied on the general on the northern expedition of the king's army. Shulu Getu said coldly: "Don't dare, Weichen will naturally do his best to assist the prince." It's just that the prince is so happy with such a good son-in-law, and Weichen's little ability is difficult, I'm afraid it will be difficult to use it. Ladies and gentlemen, the last general will take his leave!" Wokotai listened to his unreasonable words, and he was unhappy in his heart, so he let him go and did not stop him.

Seeing that as soon as Brother Shulu left, the other people didn't want to stay long, Mu Huali and Wo Kotai said a few polite words, and whispered to Qi En to sit in the National Teacher's Mansion after finishing the matter, and then also said goodbye and left. Yelu Chucai and he generally gave a few words, and they also dispersed. Although Wokotai was happy with his son-in-law, he had a calm and resolute personality, and he couldn't see too many expressions on his face, so he instructed Qi En: "The expedition to Western Xia is today." This king doesn't have time to give you a wedding, so don't blame me. This king promised that when he returned triumphantly, he would definitely make up for it. I don't know how much time it will take to go to Western Xia, and the march and battle are extremely dangerous. You should accompany Nari for a few days!" Zien nodded yes. Wokotai gave Nari a few more words, and then let the two of them go out of the school field hand in hand and go east.

When the two of them came to the cliff on the top of the mountain on the banks of the River of Trouble, where they first met, Nari was fascinated by the sound of Zien's music, and exchanged her for her own horses, so that Zien came here every day to tell her to play music with leaves. And then we met often. It wasn't until Boyan noticed that he found Qi En's military camp in the middle of the night and seriously injured him, and the two didn't come here for a long time. Now, their status has been upgraded from friends to fiancés. This cliff almost witnessed the love between the two. Qi En couldn't help but sigh with emotion, looking at the Biren beside him, he thought that Nari must be very happy at this moment, but he saw Nari's charming eyes lowered, and her flawless face like ivory was full of confusion. Qi En couldn't help but wonder in her heart, didn't she want to marry herself?

Na Ri sighed faintly, stared at this Qi En with beautiful eyes and said: "Brother Xiaobai, do you know, I am very happy in my heart now, I still can't believe that we are really together in the end." How I was afraid that it was just a dream, because dreams always wake up. ”

Qi En smiled: "Silly girl, what is a dream! This is reality! Don't worry, I will love you more in the future." If you call this happiness a dream, then I will make you never wake up. When Nari heard Qi En's lingering love words, a trace of blush flashed on her white face, but she quickly straightened her face again and asked, "Brother Xiaobai, I just want to ask you the truth." Do you love me?"

Zien was caught off guard, not expecting her to ask such a question. The two have known each other for only a few months, and because of their similar interests, they became friends. Before, he never expected to fall in love with the open-minded, innocent and lively girl in front of him. Because if you add up according to the mental age, the time of Zien III is already an old man who is almost sixty years old. Although he has always shown himself with a young appearance, he has already experienced the world and seen through the flashiness. How could a sixty-year-old fall in love with an eighteen-year-old girl? Zien had never thought about such a question before, perhaps he had been running away from it. At this time, it was solemnly brought up by Nari, and I couldn't help but be stunned there.

Nari looked nervously at the expression on Zien's face, and her heart sank more and more. said in a trembling voice: "Don't you love me?" Qi En suddenly woke up, if he hesitated, he would immediately break the heart of the girl in front of him. Zien let out a long breath, as if he was going to spit out all the past. He re-met Nari's gaze and said softly, "Nari, I have a secret in my body that you don't know. I don't deny a good opinion of you. If you call this feeling love. I don't think I've ever thought about it. But now you're asking me to come back to this question right away, and I think it's too complicated for me to put into words. But you have another choice. Allow me to reply to you in the course of a lifetime. ”

Nari looked at him in surprise, although he didn't understand why Qi En didn't answer her question immediately, but Qi En used deep affection, and Na Ri still understood. She covered her hot cheeks, looked at the cliff in front of her and said, "Brother Boyan and I have known each other since childhood. At that time, there was a beautiful legend in the river. Underneath this cliff, there is a hollow orchid. If anyone can pick him and give it to his beloved, he will receive the protection and blessing of the gods of the steppe. I told Brother Boyan about this, but when Brother Boyan heard it, he was very disdainful, thinking that it was nothing. I was thinking, if anyone can help me pick that orchid, I'll marry him. Brother Xiaobai, from the first time I saw you, I was thinking, perhaps, you are the one I have been waiting for. Brother Xiaobai, did you intend to help me take the risk of picking this orchid that symbolizes love?"

Qi Enwan didn't expect that this little princess would be so infatuated. Even with Boyan didn't understand her heart, but missed her heart. He went up to the cliff to take a look, this cliff is not steep, but the strange rocks under the cliff are craggy, very treacherous, one accidentally falls down, even if he can't die, he is also killed by these raised strange stone spikes. For ordinary people, this naturally feels frightened and very dangerous, but Qi En's family has passed down the light skills since he was a child, and it is the world's first-class qi control technique. Zhuangzi has a leisurely travel: "Pengzhi migrated to the south of the underworld, the water hit three thousand miles, and the swaying went up to 90,000 miles, and the one who went to rest in June was also." That is to say, the Roc migrated to the south, hit the water for 3,000 li, circled and rose to an altitude of 90,000 li, and flew away from the North Sea in the June gale. The ancestors of the Bai family realized a set of supreme light body kung fu from this. Peng Zhida does not know tens of thousands of miles, because the body is too big, so he can't fly with his wings, but with the help of the June wind, with the wind to sway, fly against the wind. Li Bai Shiyun: Dapeng rose with the wind one day and swayed up to 90,000 miles. If the wind stops, it can still stir up the water. It can be seen that the speed of Dapeng is fast, and the essence of grasping is really the world's first-class qi.

Qi En looked at it, didn't think about it, jumped down, Na Ri was taken aback, and when he jumped forward to look, he saw Qi En like a fish flying to the shallow bottom, a big bird returning to the forest, floating left and right, those craggy and strange rocks that seeped people, but became Qi En's arm help, and after a while, Qi En descended to an orchid that bloomed in the wind. When the flowers bloom for a long time, the flowers are as white as jade, and the petals are fat and delicate, which is very attractive. Zien couldn't bear to let it die of damage, so he carefully picked up the dirt, held it in his hand along with the soil on the rhizome, and jumped back to the cliff bank.

"Ahh When Nari saw Zien returning, she was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly rushed forward to put her arms around Zien's neck, almost crying. How did she know about Qi En's exquisite martial arts, and thought that he really fell. Qi En patted her fragrant shoulder and comforted her softly: "I'm not fine! I couldn't bear to hurt the flower, and pulled it out along with the rhizome. Would you like to bring back the yurt and plant it in a pot?"

Nari smiled, took the orchid, and said with a smile: "This is a symbol of our love, if you dare to break it, you will leave it under the cliff for me for the rest of your life!"

Qi En was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "I am taking back a third party! Nari smiled: "It's okay, in my heart, you and this flower are equally important." Your status has only dropped a little. Qi En was a little proud after listening to the first half of the sentence, but after listening to the second half of the sentence, he immediately became depressed again. Nari put her hand around Zien's shoulder and said, "This flower can't leave the land for too long. Let's go back quickly!" Zien nodded, and the two of them returned the same way. Nari said while leading the horse: "Brother Xiaobai, you can read me a poem about orchids!" Qi En tilted his head and thought about it, and said casually: "The cliff and cliff are spraying strange fragrances, and the beautiful air makes passers-by busy. If it weren't for the high location, the south Zhumen would be accompanied by evening makeup. ”

The two rode on the same horse, talking and laughing all the way, and there was a faint laughter like a silver bell. Unbeknownst to the two of them, after they left, two men jumped out of thin air, one handsome and burly, and the other of medium stature and plain appearance. With a bald head and nine incense scars, he is obviously a monk. But he was dressed in silk and satin, dressed luxuriously, and lived like a flower monk.

The young man looked at the backs of the two leaving, his eagle eyes shone with hatred, and he turned his head to the bald monk and asked, "Senior brother, what do you think?"
