Long son-in-law

Chapter 630: Water hibiscus

Views:

There was a guard named Yan Yan in Bajun. This man was very brave, not only resourceful, but also skilled. Gan Ning also knew this man and got a set of military books.

This is not a very good set of military books, it can only be regarded as a general military theory, but in this era of lack of knowledge, the book is a very valuable asset.

Li Yuguo read at night by candlelight, which gave him a good use of his ability to stay up late. You must know that in this era when there are not many entertainment things, basically everyone goes to bed very early, and in winter, the days are short, and everyone basically goes to bed at seven o'clock. Already rested.

Working as the sun rises and breathing as the sun sets is the habit of most people, or it has been the normal life for thousands of years.

There is light during the day to farm, do business, and handle government affairs. Because lighting is too expensive, candles can only be widely used during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the past, the lighting method was generally oil lamps, but now the manufacturing technology is underdeveloped, and the oil for oil lamps is Very difficult to obtain.

Reading at night is the life of the rich. Don’t think that digging into the wall to steal light is just an idiom, but a real thing. In ancient times, most families could not afford lighting facilities. If they really couldn’t sleep, they would chat with their families. Chatting with serious content is called talking about the past. The elders tell the younger generation some historical etiquette and life experience. As the saying goes: If the old people don’t talk about the ancient times, the younger generation will fail.

If it's not serious, just tell some neighborhood gossip, stories and jokes, collectively called "talking in the vernacular". Of course, the husband and wife meet every day, and there is nothing to talk about at night. Without lighting facilities, they can only repair the car before going to bed, and that's it.

Later, before the Tang Dynasty, there was a strict night ban system in the city, and you would be beaten if you went out at night. The night ban was relaxed in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, and it was not until the Song Dynasty that it was completely abolished, and ordinary people had real night life, with restaurants and night markets, all night long, but these Nightlife can only be experienced by wealthy people, but ordinary people have no chance to experience it.

And now Li Hugo lives in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, which is a very painful era. Before coming to this era, Li Hugo probably would not have been able to understand the pain of the people who were displaced during the wars in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although the world today is full of powerful generals and advisors, it is still full of internal and external troubles.

For example, the Qiang rebellion was not mentioned in the novel, which was also the most troublesome foreign invasion. The Qiang people are a very ancient nation. After the Xiongnu were wiped out in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, the Qiang people became the most serious threat to the west of the Eastern Han Dynasty. These ethnic minorities did not have a set of stable policies, and most of them adopted tyrannical policies, which caused great hatred from the Qiang people. The struggles against the Eastern Han Dynasty were continuous and one after another.

In order to suppress the resistance of the Qiang people, the Eastern Han Dynasty spent more than 8 billion in military expenditures for more than ten years. However, this money was not really spent on military affairs. It was all intercepted by the generals. These generals used the money to bribe the emperor. Some of the dignitaries around them did not know how to be considerate of their own soldiers, so the soldiers who did not deserve to die were "bones in the wild".

Relatively speaking, the common people suffered a lot. They had no food to eat and no clothing to cover their bodies. In order to survive, many human tragedies occurred, such as the famine in Rencheng and the Liang Kingdom. , Henan people cannibalize their wives, which means that the husband and wife eat each other, and even if they give birth to children, they will kill them because they cannot afford to raise them.

In such a situation, how can we talk about social harmony? Wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. People are also human beings. They also need food, clothing, housing and transportation. If they are not satisfied and cannot survive, they will rise up and have to make food for themselves. So Li Huguo also heard this sentence in Bajun As the folk song goes, the hair is like a leek, but it will grow back after being cut; the head is like a chicken, when it is cut, it will crow again.

Bajun is more difficult than Xinye. Xinye is at least upstream, but the water in Bajun is the lowest flow, and the fish are all taken to the fishermen in the upper reaches. Officials do not need to be afraid, they must always be taken lightly. If the government forces the people to rebel, the people will have to rebel. Many uprisings broke out among the people in order to survive. Some people even claimed to be emperors, and ethnic minorities also participated. Even the soldiers sent to suppress them participated in the uprisings, such as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.

This volume is a collection of three elements: art of war, people's livelihood, and management. Each element is not very outstanding, but it all makes sense. This also gave Li Yuguo an awakening. Now Nowadays, the nine counties of Jingxiang and Xiang are all wealthy places, but some of the counties on the edge are very bitter and cold. It is still seven or eight years before Liu Biao's death from illness, so it is impossible for Li Hugo to wait until the eldest son is abolished and the younger one is established.

The Jingzhou Incident began with the succession issue between Liu Biao's two sons. The eldest son Liu Qi was supposed to inherit his position as governor, but was taken away by his second son. However, Cai Mao gave Jingzhou to Cao Mengde, so this happened. It got messy.

But now it seems that there are still seven or eight years left, so Li Huguo is not in a hurry, but this book makes him very concerned. He closed the book and took a look, only to find a few small words on it: Wolong.

No wonder the writing is so wonderful, it was written by Wolong, who is Zhuge Liang. Now I estimate that he should be fifteen or sixteen years old. He has not yet reached the age of becoming a prodigy, but his ability to govern the country has begun to take shape.

Li Yuguo was very happy. When he was immersed in the sea of books and could not forget it for a long time, suddenly there was a knock on the door in the distance.

Li Yuguo put down the book and said: "It's late at night, let's take a rest. Whoever you are, let's talk about it again tomorrow."

With that said, Li Huguo was about to blow out the candles, but then a woman's voice came from outside. She said, "It's me, Qiling."

Li Yuguo frowned and said, "It's Qiling. It's not convenient for you to come in so late. You are a man and a woman alone. Be careful if others see you. Your innocence will be tarnished."

Li Huguo called Lu Qiling "Qiling" instead of "niece" like before, so this small change made Qiling extremely happy. She couldn't help being happy. She said: "I haven't eaten enough. I want to eat some more with you."

Li Yuguo also suddenly realized that he had been drinking and not eating much, so he said, "Okay, I'll open the door."

Unexpectedly, when Li Yuguo opened the door, he saw a gust of fragrant wind caressing his face. He almost didn't recognize the beauty in front of him.

Because Lu Qiling usually looks majestic and majestic in her silver armor, but how can she look like a daughter? But now Lu Qiling has put on a very decent women's clothing, which seems to perfectly accentuate her figure.

Moreover, she applied a little makeup, neither too thick nor too shallow, but the right amount made her look as beautiful as a hibiscus. Although it was not as beautiful as Diao Chan, her beauty was not much different. Especially now, the shy look, wanting to refuse but still welcoming, is full of a kind of mystery that is indescribable for men.
