Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 51

Huainan Palace.

Liu Ling got out of the car, lifted the hem of his skirt, jumped into the hall, and said softly, "Father, my daughter is back."

Liu An, king of Huainan, held a scroll of notebooks in one hand and a pen dipped in cinnabar in the other, and was carefully proofreading. Hearing Liu Ling's voice, a smile appeared in his eyes that he couldn't hide.He put down his pen, stood up, walked around the desk full of notebooks, and went up to him.

"Hahaha, my daughter is back. I don't know what kind of good news she brought back to me? It's been a few months since I went there. I must have visited all the talents in Jiangdu Kingdom, right?"

"Even though it didn't hit, it's not far away." Liu Ling said with a smile, bowed his head to the guests who participated in the school, and asked the maid to fetch the swing model and put it in front of Liu An. "Father, all sages, Mausoleum has a small problem, and I need to discuss it with the lords."

When Liu An heard this, he immediately became interested.He called the diners to come over and listen to the questions Liu Ling brought back from his envoy this time.Liu An is recognized as a virtuous king with outstanding talents and learning.These close disciples are also talented, and they all have an air of being arrogant and arrogant.Although Liu Ling was smart, they still didn't pay attention to him.

Their enthusiasm for Liu Ling was only out of etiquette, and when it came to academic issues, they had nothing to be modest about.As they who have just participated in the compilation of a brilliant masterpiece, what kind of problems in the world can stump them, or is there something they don't know?

After successfully arousing everyone's interest and arrogance, Liu Ling revealed Liang Xiao's question.

She knew that these people were talented and knowledgeable, but she believed that this question would stump them.Liang Xiao's brilliance can only be highlighted if they are stumped.Only by highlighting Liang Xiao's brilliance can Huan Yuan's refusal appear natural.Being able to teach such a brilliant disciple, Huan Yuan has enough qualifications to show off, otherwise, where will the face of the Huainan Palace be placed, and how will they balance the mood of these people?

After listening to Liu Ling's question, most of the people, like Liu Ling, gave their answers based on common sense.Even those who have a little bit of city government are somewhat disapproving.What kind of problem is this? It is too cheap to discuss such a problem.

Liu An was a little uneasy.He was under a lot of pressure to send Liu Ling as an envoy. If Liu Ling could not complete the task satisfactorily, he would be suspected of nepotism and unknown people, which would damage his reputation.

Prince Liu Qian who came over after hearing the news smiled and said nothing, watching Liu Ling explain.He is also quite critical of this capable sister.

Liu Ling calmly moved the copper swing model, and started the time while everyone was watching.

After a while, there was a surprised discussion in the hall.Although this problem is just an unrefined trick, the result that is obviously contrary to common sense makes these people very embarrassed.If you make a mistake on such a simple question, what face do you have to say that you know astronomy first and geography second?
Liu An was also surprised, but he was more relieved, and happily discussed with the diners.

After arguing for a long time, they didn't reach a conclusion, so they had to ask Liu Ling.At this time, Liu Ling became humble, admitting that he only knew a little about it, and didn't really understand the truth.Because of this, she hurried back to Huainan to ask all the sages for advice.

At this time, Men Kewu was recommended a person.Among the thousands of guests in the Huainan Palace, there is a eccentric named Deng Guobin, who is said to be a Mohist child. He does not read much, but he is good at calculation and is very interested in various practical techniques.He might be able to answer Liu Ling's question.

Liu An immediately asked Deng Guobin to be called.Sure enough, Deng Guobin was very interested. Regardless of being rude, he chased Liu Ling and asked questions about Liang Xiao, and then went happily with the swing model in his arms.

Liu An called Liu Ling to the inner room, the father and daughter sat down, and Liu An put away his smile.

"Why didn't Huan Yuan come?"

"Daughter dare not make a statement." Liu Ling shook his head. "Maybe it's because I remember what happened back then, maybe it's because I'm disabled, I'm ashamed of my appearance, and I'm afraid of being humiliated. Father, he has been deposed, and he can no longer command the army, so he can focus on teaching his disciples. In my daughter's opinion, it's better to win Liang over. Xiao."

"A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, even if he is a genius, how strong can he be?"

"Father, when Huan Yuan was a general, he was just weak. Doesn't father have the generosity of King Wu?"

Liu An was silent.He thought for a long time, but shook his head.Liu Bi's appointment of Huan Yuan as a general was opposed by many veterans.If he appoints Liang Xiao as the general, I'm afraid the resistance will be even greater.Because Liang Xiao offended many disciples by himself, this is not a choice a smart person should make.

"Ling'er, let's discuss this matter later. The Son of Heaven has no sons. Once I confess, I have a great chance to successfully inherit the throne. I don't necessarily need to go to war. Famous generals are not as good as celebrities, and Liang Xiao is so young, I'm afraid he won't be able to take on important responsibilities."

"Father, the Son of Heaven is only 17 years old. Even if he has no children, there will be at least 30 to 30 years until he confesses. Many things may happen in [-] to [-] years."

"Although the Son of Heaven is only seventeen, it has been several years since he married Empress Chen, and there is no news so far." Liu Qian walked in from the outside, closed the door, and said with a smile: "Three years old look big, and seven years old look good." Lao, among the sons of the first emperor, there are not many who have no heirs at the age of 17."

Liu Ling didn't say a word, she didn't want to have a direct conflict with the prince.No matter how capable she is, she is a woman after all, and her wealth depends on her father and brother, so it is absolutely unwise to have a mess with her heir.Besides, she also has her own little thoughts.She didn't want Liu Qian to be interested in Liang Xiao, she wanted to take Liang Xiao into her mansion and serve her around.

I don't know what this Jiaotong is doing now, and whether Hu Lai has troubled him.Liu Ling's mind was a little wandering.

……

Hu Lai was assassinated and died, Liang Xiao finally stayed quiet for a few days, and accompanied Huan Yuan to finish watching the test and watched a military inspection.After returning home, while practicing archery with heart, he began to learn the art of war from Huan Yuan. His life was simple and fulfilling.

Huan Yuan dictated an art of war to Liang Xiao.It is very different from the "Sun Tzu's Art of War" that Liang Xiao knew. More than half of the pages of this Art of War are about the application of cavalry, especially the mobility of cavalry.Liang Xiao was very strange. As far as he knew, a large number of cavalry was used after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty crusade against the Xiongnu. It was Huo Qubing, a famous general who was born, who first proposed it. Huo Qubing is still drinking milk in his mother's arms. How could anyone respect cavalry so much?

Huan Yuan didn't say who the author of the art of war was, and he didn't even want to explain too much, but let Liang Xiao memorize it by rote.

Liang Xiao had no choice but to bite the bullet.Fortunately, this Art of War is not long, only more than 2000 words, he memorized it in only two days, and then began to ponder this Art of War, hoping to find some clues from the words and sentences.

This Art of War is somewhat different from the Han Dynasty articles he has read. There are many ancient characters and Wu-Chu sayings in it, and it has a taste of "Chu Ci".
