Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 922 Don't Participate in Political Struggles

Lan Tian counted with his fingers, then suddenly tapped on Lan Yuan's head, and said in a deep voice: "You idiot, according to the time calculation, Wan'er will give birth within this month, why don't you come back after the child is born?"

"Eh, my mother said that there is no problem with her guarding, and it is the right thing to let the child come to help father earlier, and Wan'er also said that she is fine." Lan Yuan lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Forget it, with your mother taking care of her, Wan'er's smooth delivery should be fine, let alone Mr. Hua, is the old man in good health?" Lan Tian stroked his beard and asked.

"Mr. Hua is in good spirits. I really can't tell that he is nearly [-] years old. My child once asked Mr. Wan'er to check Wan'er's pulse. He also said that the fetus is very healthy. Besides." Lan Yuan hesitated to speak at the end.

"What else?" Lan Tian looked curious.

Lan Yuan whispered: "Didn't you mention that Qingmei should study medicine? My mother asked Mr. Hua to try it, and it turned out that Qingmei was very accurate in identifying medicinal materials and holding silver needles very steadily. If Mr. Hua found a rare treasure, I plan to pass on what I have learned in my life.”

Lan Tian smiled brightly: "I thought it wasn't that Qing'er was talented, it was because your mother let her learn martial arts in the past two years. Naturally, her body is better than her peers. It's the same for you brothers to try."

"Zhongling and I are not as quiet as Qingmei, but do you really plan to let Qingmei practice medicine?" Lan Yuan was born in the Three Kingdoms period, and his thoughts and concepts were influenced by the surrounding environment, so he could not be as enlightened as Lantian. Able to marry, like Lu Lingqi has a whole body of skills, she can only stay at home to take care of her husband and children, and her own sister doesn't have many opportunities to show her face.

"If Qing'er is interested, there's nothing wrong with it. If you really don't like it, don't force it." Lan Tian smiled and drank a glass of wine.

Lan Yuan showed a sad face: "But Qingmei is a woman after all. Even if she treats women alone in the future, what will she do during her medical studies? Should she study medical books by herself? Or ask Mr. Hua to teach at home? Mr. Hua is already seventy-nine this year, I'm afraid It is inconvenient to travel around for a long time, and it is impossible to apply what you have learned if you don’t follow the teacher for consultations.”

"It's actually easy to handle. When Qing'er is a few years older, let her disguise herself as a man and go to medical school for two years, isn't it all right?" Lan Tian stroked his beard and shook his head lightly.

"A woman disguised as a man?" Lan Yuan swallowed, thinking that his father's idea was really fantastic.

Lan Tian saw that Lan Yuan was still worried, so he patted him on the shoulder to comfort him: "Bo Yang has led troops to many places. It is difficult for people in troubled times, and being a woman is even more like nothing. Qing'er was born in our Lan family. It's not difficult to marry a princely son, but as a father, I want her to choose for herself, so I need to learn more skills."

"Choose by yourself?" Lan Yuan became more and more confused as he listened.

Lan Tian nodded and sighed: "There is no life that can be repeated. Only you know how you live. There are still men in this world who can control their own destiny, but most women have no right to decide how to live. The more royals and rich families, the more so. , the daughter in the family has basically become the link to maintain the relationship, and I don't want Qing'er to become a tool"

"What if Qing'er chooses to marry a poor family or Li Shu?" Lan Yuan asked.

Lan Tian's expression was indifferent, "It doesn't matter if you are a father, as long as Qing'er lives happily."

"What if His Majesty bestows a marriage?" Lan Yuan asked a difficult question.

Lan Tian shook his head lightly, "If Qing'er is unwilling, he will definitely intercede for his father, and besides, as His Majesty is a man, he will not force others to make things difficult."

"It seems that our daughter is better in our family." Lan Yuan deliberately joked.

Lan Tian smiled and replied: "If you and I were not responsible for the fate of the country, I would also teach you some skills, allowing you to freely choose your own life. Are Boyang's generals annoying?"

"Baby is joking, I really enjoy the feeling of heavy responsibility on my shoulders." Lan Yuan grinned.

Lan Tian nodded, "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, the richer and stronger the country, and the happier the people. What we are doing now is laying the foundation for the future. Among the future generations we will benefit, of course, the Lan family is also included. For myself."

"You can save it, baby." Lan Yuan said while pouring wine for Lan Tian.

The father and son chatted while eating, and it didn't take long before the sun turned to the west. In the afternoon, Lan Tian was planting champagne rice in the courtyard, while Lan Yuan had to go back to the army to reunite with the generals, and did not return home to rest until late at night.

In the early morning of the next day, Lan Tian and his son came to the front yard at the same time to put on a posture in casual clothes.

The Lan family had the habit of exercising in the morning before meals. Lan Tian practiced the Hua Tuo Wu Qin Xi, while Lan Yuan practiced boxing and stick dancing with loud moves.

Half an hour later, the two went back to the room to have breakfast and sat face to face.

In the few months since Lanyuan left, the political situation in Jiangdong has undergone major adjustments. Last night, I heard a lot of news from the army that fell into the formation. Marry someone else?Complain that those Jiangdong gentry are too 'arrogant'.

Lan Yuan was full of doubts in his heart. He held a bowl and asked carefully: "Father, you don't restrain the Jiangdong scholars at all. What will happen if the situation gets out of control in the future? Now they are all inside and outside, and the soldiers have complaints."

"Did Chu Qing complain to you? It seems that he was free during this period of time. Xingba is attacking Lujiang at this time. You will also bring people to help in two days. Today I will teach you another word. Soldiers should not easily participate in politics. Struggles, the destructive power of civil servants who write is no worse than your swords, many generals did not die on the battlefield, but fell under the pens of their colleagues, do you remember?" Lan Tian's face was serious.

"Uh, my child is educated." Lan Yuan nodded in agreement, and then continued to ask: "Luling's background is poor, and its population is much smaller than that of Wujun, Kuaiji, and Danyang. It may be difficult to surpass it in a short time. Why is father so calm?"

After finishing the porridge, Lantian and his wife stroked their beards and said, "Weifu will tell you a story. There are wolves and sheep on the grassland. If you like to eat mutton, but wolves can only live on sheep, then you and wolves are the same. Competitive relationship, how would you choose to break the situation? Eliminate wolves and eat meat alone?"

"Uh, there seems to be no other way?" Lan Yuan looked surprised, thinking that there is another way?
Lan Tian got up and smiled slightly, pointing to the gruel left in Lan Yuan's bowl and said, "If there are only sheep on the grassland, not only will you not be able to sit back and relax, but the number of sheep will drop sharply, and you may even die out naturally."

"How is it possible? The wolves are gone." Lan Yuan looked incredulous.

"Because the wolves are wiped out, there will be more sheep, right? But the number of pastures is limited. The more sheep there are, the less food they can eat. The grasslands will eventually be gnawed into Gobi and deserts, and the sheep will eventually starve to death." Lan Tian said Answer deeply.

"Can't the flock survive and eliminate the fittest? The leading sheep can be allocated pastures, and if the population is controlled, there will be no grass." Lan Yuan thought for a while and argued.

Lan Tian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Individuals are selfish, fighting for the pasture means fighting each other, and there will be bloodshed and death."

"I understand." Lan Yuan interrupted Lan Tian and said happily.
