Chapter 200 The appearance of a national scholar!(1/2)
"Master Zhao has a unique vision!"
Xiao He calmed down his thoughts and praised him with his hands.
Ying Ziye nodded slightly, filled the wine glasses in his and Xiao He's hands, clinked the glasses with them, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, what do you think of the world today, and how to effectively and firmly occupy the northern grasslands and the southern Baiyue?"
The night was dark, Xiao He sat by the window, glanced at the bright moon in the sky, took a long breath, and said: "Now in the world, the Six Kingdoms are complete, but there are still some unstable factors."
"Moreover, hundreds of schools of thought and various major forces are competing against each other, and most of them do not respect the laws of the empire and do not serve the country."
"The country not only needs to recuperate, but also needs to remove these uneasy factors."
"As for how to rule the northern grasslands and the southern Baiyue for a long time, there is not much problem."
"oh?!"
Ying Ziye was very interested and asked curiously: "Tell me in detail."
Xiao He's face was looming under the moonlight, he stretched out his hand and gently tapped the table with a smile.
"First point, although the northern grasslands cannot be cultivated, they can be grazed. The empire can issue a decree to move people to the grasslands for grazing."
"And they can make herding their business and live in a fixed location. They only need to build a big city on the grassland and send various materials from the central plains to supplement the exchange!"
"At the same time, we are providing certain benefits to stabilize the people."
"As for Baiyue, although it has the best time and favorable geographical location, it only lacks the people and people!"
"Among the Baiyue, it is not an exaggeration to call them grassland barbarian tribes, and they are constantly conquering each other."
"In this regard, we can imitate the policy of His Majesty the First Emperor, to make friends far away and attack close quarters!"
"Second, build waterways, learn from each other's strengths and overcome weaknesses, and defeat the enemy..."
boom!
What Xiao He said sounded like thunder in Ying Ziye's heart.
These strategies are almost the same as his future preparations.
The two ideas coincided with each other.
"Brother Xiao, you are truly a heavenly being!"
Ying Ziye bowed his hands and said, "Your talent is completely worthy of a national scholar."
"Young Master Zhao, you're welcome!"
Xiao He hurriedly returned the greeting, but he let out a long sigh.
When Ying Ziye saw this, he asked doubtfully, "When you hear Brother Xiao sighing, does it seem like he has something on his mind?"
Xiao He lay on the wall behind him, shook his head and said: "I just hate that I was born at the wrong time and had to be a county official. I have no ambitions but cannot serve the country!"
When Ying Ziye heard this, he patted him on the shoulder, smiled softly and comforted him: "As long as you have talent, there will be a place to put it to use. Brother Xiao, there is no need to sigh so bitterly."
"Oh!"
Xiao He smiled bitterly and did not take what Ying Ziye said to heart, but drank frequently.
It's approaching midnight.
The banquet is over.
"Mr. Zhao, you might as well stay here with me today. You and I can sleep together and talk all night long."
Liu Ji was all smiles and invited warmly.
"No."
Ying Ziye waved his hand and refused.
Liu Ji and Du Yuelian saw each other off.
Ying Ziye, Xiao He, and Fan Kuai left.
After walking out of the alley, Fan Kuai, Lu Wan and others also said goodbye and left.
Until now, only Xiao He, Ying Ziye, Hou Qing, and Jian Jiu were left.
Walking under the moonlight, it is also August and the weather is getting cooler.
The autumn wind blows, bringing a bit of coolness.
The robes are flowing and the hunting sound is making!
Xiao He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Master Zhao, please come and stay at my house. I have many things to talk to you about."
"You have your wish, and you dare not say goodbye!"
Ying Ziye smiled lightly.
Dang even followed Xiao He to where he lived.
Xiao He’s home!
It is located in a bustling street, with a high-walled courtyard and a tall gate.
Buzz!
Xiao He opened the courtyard door and extended his hand to guide it.
Yingzi walked into the hospital at night and saw only a few large rooms. Although they were not luxurious, they were spacious and clean.
There is also a pool in the courtyard, with pines and bamboos planted beside the pool.
"Mr. Zhao, please!"
Xiao He smiled.
He took Ying Ziye to a study room.
The study is also elegant and quiet, with the bright moon shining outside the window and the gentle breeze blowing.
The willow trees, pines and bamboos sway, reflecting the moonlight, casting mottled colors in the study.
The two sat opposite each other.
Ying Ziye looked around the study room and walked towards the bookshelf. There were rolls of bamboo slips on it, with the titles of the books written on the back.
The Book of Changes, the Book of Songs, the Tao Te Ching, Daxue, Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals, Wuchang, and many other books from hundreds of schools of thought.
Although Xiao He was a jailer, he read a lot of books!
While Ying Ziye was flipping through the pages, he asked lightly: "From what Brother Xiao has seen, what is Liu Ji like as a person?"
"Oh!"
Xiao He chuckled, shook his head, and said with disdain: "A vulgar person in the market is so embarrassing!"
"On the other hand, Fan Kuai, Lu Wan and others are very loyal."
"oh?!"
Ying Ziye's eyes were blazing, but he was thoughtful when he heard the words.
"Brother Xiao, what do you think of the current princes in the empire? Which prince do you prefer to inherit the empire?"
He also wanted to hear how Xiao He evaluated himself.
All night long, long talk!
Ying Ziye discussed many things about governing the country and the world at Xiao He's house.
It wasn't until dawn that Xiao He couldn't resist his sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
Ying Ziye covered him with a thin quilt, and then walked out of the study, calling Hou Qing and Jian Jiu to lead the others away.
It's approaching noon.
When Xiao He woke up leisurely, he was shocked to find that Ying Ziye had disappeared long ago.
"Where has Mr. Zhao gone?!"
Xiao He left the study and headed towards several other rooms. They were also empty. Hou Qing and Jianjiu were not there either.
It's a time of doubt.
The county government officer came to report and said: "Brother Xiao, the county magistrate has an order for you to go together to welcome the Eighth Young Master."
"knew."
Xiao He heard the words and responded without daring to hesitate.
He immediately went to the county government office with the government officials and found Magistrate Fang to follow him.
Outside Pei County.
Above the official road, the mighty imperial army marched.
The troops are neat and orderly.
Although the cavalry was not galloping, it was just walking slowly.
But he also showed that he was a fierce and powerful man, capable of swallowing up thousands of miles like a tiger!
