Chapter 696

58th dragon scale (IX)

Poor childe Li asked his father to beat him up and was escorted to the government to admit his mistake. Was he spoiled by his mother or afraid of beating him? He was unkempt and embarrassed. After admitting his mistake, he had no face to appear in front of Xun Mian in his life!

Mrs. Li is a daughter-in-law and can't fight. In addition to verbal reprimand, Mr. Li sleeps in her aunt's yard for several months, which makes Mrs. Li cry. Those crooked ideas dare not fight again. After this, the two women are much obedient. Gradually, as time passes, Li Da's popularity fades, and the family is reconciled as before. However, whether it is Li Zhan, It's Mrs. Li who doesn't dare to think about the marriage. Lord Li said himself that he will decide his son's marriage at that time.

As soon as the family's affairs were over, Xun Mian herself was relieved. She was close to Xun Tao and slept in a bed at night. When the sisters whispered at night, they also asked each other about their dreams for the future. However, neither Xun Tao nor Xun Mian thought about getting married.

Xun Tao knew that she and her hairpin must see each other early. She thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say. She always felt that in her life, she was confused and bullied by others for more than ten years. She finally returned to the government and took back her own identity. However, she was facing the day when she would marry her husband and teach her children. Would she be around her husband and children in the future, Can't you have your own life?

But these thoughts in her mind were also vague. The only thing was that she loved to hear mother Zeng tell her about the heroic deeds of her grandmother, a heroine decades ago. The more she listened, the more fascinated she became. She even dreamed of getting on a horse and holding a sword to kill the enemy.

At the end of the new year, there was peace in the government. People pasted Spring Festival couplets and hung red lanterns early. It would be a day for family reunion only if they had a Palace Banquet tomorrow night.

In previous years, Linglong was old and didn't go to the palace. This year, she went. The emperor came down and took her hand to meet her, and made no secret of his respect and love for her. The former Emperor fought for many years and was seriously ill. The emperor ascended the throne when he was young. At that time, the government was unstable. Thanks to the old Duke and the old Taijun standing firmly on his side, he could hold power step by step. He always remembered this kindness.

Linglong is the person with the largest generation in the audience. The women's dependents are entertained by the empress in the back hall. She fought with the former Emperor in those years. Therefore, she was left in the front hall by the emperor together with all civil and military officials. The emperor personally led her to the position where she started, which can be said to be very embarrassing.

So after drinking and eating, Linglong proposed to rebuild the women's army.

Before the emperor spoke, some pedantic civil servants took the initiative to protest: "the old gentleman's words are bad. It's the duty of a woman to teach her husband and children at home. It's not polite to go out in public and fight and kill! What's more, now that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, what women's army do I want to tell to make people laugh? Do I want women to go to war! "

The emperor's eyebrows and eyes were deep. He looked at the civil servant with some meaningful meaning.

When he ascended the throne, both the Duke and the old prince were no longer in years. Therefore, the old prince in the emperor's memory was kind and gentle, which satisfied his fantasy of his mother. But in recent years, there have been a lot of things in the Duke's government, and he really saw the old prince's means. How could he be content with glory when he could carry a knife and ride across the battlefield in that year?

Only he and his confidants knew that the border was not peaceful in recent years. Xu Shi's armistice has provided enough money for those barbarians to cultivate and rest. They began to harass the border, plunder goods and even torture and kill civilians. Ask the emperor to come and see. There will be a war sooner or later. The barbarians grew up on horseback. They were brave and good at fighting and could defeat hundreds with one. The soldiers of our Dynasty were too comfortable. When he ascended the throne, the women's army had been disbanded. Now the old Taijun mentioned it again. The emperor also wanted to look at the past style.

But now the Confucian scholars are very strict with women, and they are not as open as they were when the country was founded. Many families even wrap their daughters with small feet. They have been raised in their boudoir for more than ten years. The only day they go out is to marry their husband's house.

The Emperor himself had daughters. To be fair, if his daughters lived like this, he would be unhappy.

"Ha ha." Linglong sneered at the civil servant, "why do you look down on women like this? You were born and raised by your father? Does your mother know that you say women are useless in front of the emperor? If you really have backbone, don't climb out of a woman's legs! "

She spoke bitterly and unkindly, which made her official tremble, but because of her generation here, she couldn't really tear it up with her.

Linglong said, "in those days, I fought with the former Emperor, but I didn't see that the former Emperor said that women had no ability! The old woman's army has repeatedly built miracles, even if the late emperor has much appreciation, it will make people laugh in your mouth. Why, you are more capable and powerful than the late emperor, and can see through what the late emperor can't see at a glance?! "

By virtue of her age and seniority, she crushed the civil servant to death with a word. The other party immediately knelt on the ground and trembled!

Linglong thinks this is a simple criticism.

Civil and military officials are everywhere. It's impossible to say how much we support the women's army, but whether it can be done or not depends on the emperor's intention? No matter how many people don't agree or disapprove, but others keep their mouths shut and protect themselves. Only this simple and simple rushed out and said no. you can't scold him or anyone!

"Your Majesty." Scolding Wanren immediately began to pretend that his poor exquisite eyes were red. "I'm old, and I don't know if I can work for the emperor for a few years. I just hope that before I die, I can let the women at the end of the world have another way out. I have the same mind of patriotism and love for the king. Why are women inferior to others? Please also allow me to rebuild the women's army in the face of my old man! "

The emperor pondered for a long time. In fact, he agreed at the bottom of his heart, but he wanted to make an appearance on his face, and the old Taijun didn't rashly put forward it. As early as a few months ago, the old man wrote a letter into the palace. They communicated with each other for a long time and exchanged their ideas and suggestions. The emperor's confidants and important officials knew it.

Then someone stepped out: "the old prince was loyal, righteous and courageous, and his words came from the heart. The minister seconded the proposal to rebuild the women's army."

"I seconded."

"I seconded."

There are more and more people who agree. Those who disagree don't understand. Here is the meaning of the emperor! Even if I don't agree in my heart, on the surface, I have to stand with the emperor and show my support one after another.

So the matter was settled. The emperor ordered the Ministry of household to allocate enough military pay to the old prince, and sent two of his confidants to help with it. He only hoped to train the women's army before the war between the two countries.

Mother Zeng heard that she was going to rebuild the women's army. Tears filled her eyes! She never thought of going back to the army one day in her life!

Linglong patted her hand: "I've wronged you by living here with me these years."

Mother Zeng shook her head again and again: "you are the master of the old slave. Where you are, the old slave will be. What grievances do you have? But, Lao Taijun, can we really rebuild the women's army? "

Linglong nodded: "this is nature."

Mother Zeng still had many worries in her heart, but looking at the master's calmness, she also slowly settled down. When they formed the women's army, it was even more difficult. Didn't they survive in the end? The idea of defending the country is the same for women!

Xun Tao found Linglong for the first time and said he wanted to join the army!

Linglong smiled: "do you want to join the army? Look at your thin arms and legs. How do you join the army? "

"I have great strength!" Xun Tao hurriedly said, "grandma, please, give your granddaughter this opportunity! Just one ordinary soldier! My granddaughter will work hard! "

She looked forward to it so much that Linglong didn't tease her. Xun Tao has been with her for three years. His knowledge and courage are first-class, and he will never be the same as he was in those days. To rebuild the women's army, it is necessary for people like her to volunteer.

And Xun Tao is very sensitive to numbers. Before the women's army has taken shape, she can temporarily serve as a clerk.

Soon the imperial court issued a notice. At the beginning, the people thought what was good about the conscription notice? As a result, a closer look showed that it was a female soldier! It turned out that the woman general who was with the late emperor wanted to rebuild the women's army! The news spread with a bang. Some of Linglong's old films can still walk and have strength. They don't forget that they were brilliant and brought their families!

These people are about the same age as Linglong. Naturally, they can't fight against the enemy, but they have rich experience and experience and can just be teachers for recruits.

The recruitment conditions of women soldiers are very good. As long as they are of appropriate age, they can volunteer without the consent of their families, and they have a monthly salary every month. After a certain time in the women's army, the imperial court even allows them to establish women's households!

Over the years, the world has become more and more strict and despised women. Many families don't want to give birth to girls, and they are abandoned everywhere. Linglong takes a fancy to these young, carefree and immature girls. She has established charity halls everywhere, raised these girls, and sent teachers to teach them. Now the country is peaceful and the people are safe, there is no war, and many generals have nothing to do, Linglong asked for everything and became a martial arts master for the children.

Xun Tao is also busy, while Xun Mian can't study and has poor bones. Seeing that her sister is too busy to touch the ground and doesn't return home, and grandma Zeng is not at home all day, she is anxious and wants to do something.

Finally, she begged Linglong to learn from the imperial doctor. After all, the female soldiers are inevitably injured. If it is a male military doctor, it is not convenient. Linglong intended to train female doctors, but also asked people to specially select girls with delicate thoughts to study with Xun Mian.

Then she gave all her power to mother Zeng. She became a shopkeeper and ran around the country. Even the emperor implicitly greeted her. The old Tai Jun was old. She was afraid that she would run around and have problems.

Oh, a group of Han Han.

Not only did she not get sick, but she became more and more healthy, hale and hearty, strong, and even younger, without a white hair! Unlike the one sitting in the Dragon chair, he is only 30 years old and his hair is much whiter.

Seeing that the women's army is becoming stronger and stronger, everything is in order, and there are many sour scholars who clamor against women to go home and have children. Often when they hear such remarks, the old Tai Jun gives full play to the privilege of her generation and age and directly hits the door, no matter who the speaker is, who dares to say she will beat anyone, and who calls her the founder of the country, Who called her the oldest?!

Over time, fewer and fewer people said.

The women's army does not specifically serve the war. Linglong is very good at tapping the advantages of mankind. Can it be said that only strong people can fight, and those who are weak are not qualified to join the army?

A weak person may have a smart brain, an excellent memory, or a talent that others can't imagine in some way.

At the beginning, she did not directly express her ideas, but told the emperor that she wanted these girls taught by the old Ministry to practice. The emperor agreed without thinking about it. He had 100% trust in Linglong. He didn't see the old prince running around, but he left his sons in the capital! Although he doesn't doubt Lao Taijun, his attitude is here, isn't it!

At the beginning, girls with special talents entered the basic departments one after another. For example, they worked as a doctor in the county government, a doctor in the medical school, and an accountant in their business... It's true that many girls and children have made great achievements when cooking frogs in warm water! Some have solved major cases, some have saved a party of people, and some have found hidden dangers in time and put forward embankment treatment! Gradually, the people were the first to accept this group of women soldiers.

Especially the young but very clever children. They look thin and harmless. They are simply an artifact to inquire about the news! Because no one would doubt them at all. In this way, many corrupt officials were uprooted, and the emperor was refreshed when he went to the court! Although his household department allocated a lot of money to the women's army, he also got back! Not to mention the money earned by the girls who are good at doing business, it is said that corrupt officials in remote areas can get a large amount of money every time they copy the State Treasury!

Even female soldiers found crops that could be used as food. The emperor became more and more aware of the usefulness of women. Every few months, he personally summoned these meritorious young girls and deeply felt that some of their talents were no less than men. If they were really trapped in the backyard all their life and dealt with their husband's wives, concubines and children all day, it would be a tyrant!

The emperor's attitude is here. What else can civil and military officials say?

The atmosphere is slowly turning around. If a female soldier wants to start a family, Linglong doesn't stop her. She doesn't care if she wants to join the army, study medicine, or marry and have children. She is only responsible for giving them the right to choose - life should be in her own hands.

Xun Tao and Xun Mian have also grown up a lot, especially Xun Mian. She used to be a little girl who didn't dare to speak loudly, but now she dares to fight against people with evil intentions with a knife! The sisters were black and smoked a lot. Linglong saw her again a few months later. She was shocked and speechless by the two black eggs.

The little granddaughter is as black as anything because she runs all day, but her spirit is excellent.

Xun Mian said loudly, "who says a woman must be white and thin to be beautiful! I think I'm beautiful now! "

Xun Tao clenched his fist: "that's right! My body is up to me! "

Linglong laughed loudly. She lost her strength, but there are still many things she can do. The only pity is that she used to be able to solve all obstacles simply and rudely by force, but now she can only do it step by step. The emperor had already agreed to set up a women's school, but it was still far from the day when the women's scientific examination entered the dynasty as an official, and I didn't know if she could see it when she left this body.

These can only be continued by the emperors of human society from generation to generation.

So far, the emperor has not set up a prince. Seeing that the women's army is getting better and better, some people really have the idea of Linglong's granddaughter. Unfortunately, Xun Tao and Xun Mian don't understand their customs. They are bent on realizing their own value. Where do they have the idea to start a family?

In order to please the beauty and get the help of the government, the princes are also more frustrated and more brave.

Linglong, an old prince, is not involved in the affairs of young people. She wants to see how the emperor respects and values himself, and his granddaughters have a future. The fourth wants to be a demon.

Since the women's army was in full swing, even the second wife Gao and the far married Xun you couldn't resist. They all grew up listening to the legend of the women's army. Although they were old, they also wanted to help. Therefore, Zhongfu from the government returned to the eldest lady Liu again. Liu was distressed by his daughter Xun LAN, who was still suffering in the temple, so he begged Linglong to pick up sister LAN, And vowed to look after her.

Linglong agreed. If Liu hadn't mentioned it, she... Had forgotten Xun LAN.

Xun Geng, the Duke of the state, was originally an old-fashioned man. However, his old mother went to battle in person. As a person who manages his family with filial piety, how can he say that his mother is not?

Even several brothers in Sanfang have a sense of crisis and become more diligent with the efforts of their sisters.

So when Xun LAN finally came back to the mansion and thought he could start again, she found that there were few people left in the big government house... She looked pale and lost a lot of weight. She asked her mother Liu: "... Mom, what's going on?"

Liu told her about the women's army. When he mentioned the current situation of peach and cotton, Xun Lan's eyes lit up!

Don't think she wants to shine. She just wants to take a share as the granddaughter of the old prince! Didn't you hear her mother say that the princes love her two sisters?!

So Xun LAN tried to drink medicine to recuperate his body. Finally, when the old Tai Jun and mother Zeng returned to the house, he went to find Linglong, tactfully indicating that he was wrong in the past. Now he wants to make efforts to change evil and return to justice.

Linglong said, "you said you knew you were wrong?"

Xun LAN knelt on the ground: "my granddaughter was blinded by lard. It was a terrible mistake. Fortunately, my grandmother was generous, so I could wake up like a dream. Now when I think of the past, I am so ashamed that I beg my grandmother to give my granddaughter a chance! "

She knelt there and looked pious, but her eyes were still dripping. Linglong glanced at her and knew that she must still have a wrong idea, so she asked, "what do you know?"

Xun Lan was stunned.

Linglong said slowly, "what is most lacking now is medical women. Can you practice medicine?"

Xun LAN shook her head in a trance.

"Can you settle accounts?"

Xun LAN:

"How about thinking and logic?"

Xun LAN: what is this?

Linglong sighed: "you can't do anything. Why do you want to airborne?"

Xun LAN bit her lips and felt that her grandmother was deliberately embarrassing herself: "my granddaughter is also known as a talented girl... Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are common..."

Linglong said calmly, "yes, then play me a song."

When the piano was in front of him, Xun LAN made a full gesture, but he found that his fingers were very stiff when he put them on the string. She was stunned and tried to fiddle with the strings. The music played slowly was just like a beginner!

Liu Shi sighed slightly on the side.

Xun LAN panicked. How, how could this happen?

Then she played three games of chess with Linglong. She lost all the games, and the words she wrote didn't have character. Needless to say, she seemed to have lost everything she was proud of and good at.

"You just want to be strong and compare with others. How can you practice these?" Linglong said lightly, "that is to send you to the women's army as an enlightenment master. You are not qualified. If you have a bad mind and accomplish nothing, think carefully about what you have lost and what you have left. "

She still remembers her granddaughter's arrogant face, thinking that no one could beat her after she was reborn!

It was for the sake of the soul swallowed by her to say so.

Xun LAN left in such a dejected way. On the way, she met Xun Rong who was holding flowers to find exquisite. The other party's small face was beautiful and naive. She was still afraid when she met Xun LAN, but she saluted in a proper manner, which was quite different from Xun Rong in Xun LAN's memory!

Unlike Xun Tao and Xun Mian, Xun Rong had no intention of joining the army. When she thought of her age, she would teach her husband and children and be a good wife and mother. Now her marriage has been decided, and she will only marry into her husband's family next year.

The man who married was not the prince of a previous life, but the son of a small official of five grades.

Liu gently touched his daughter's face, "your grandmother picked the man. Although his family background is not outstanding, the brother is generous and progressive, and promised never to take a concubine. My mother has seen it. It's a good marriage."

Xunlan still lost her soul. She doesn't understand how the difference between her life and her life is so big. Her grandmother hasn't died yet, and the government hasn't been copied. Everything is different. Only she is the same.

Still so shallow and ridiculous.

Xunlan was so surprised that she was seriously ill for a long time. She was half unconscious and half awake all day. She murmured that she shouldn't be like this. The doctor invited many doctors and said that it was a heart disease and couldn't be cured.

No wise doctor can cure a heart disease.

At this time, the fourth master Xun Yang finally made a move.

He has been lurking for many years and has been a well behaved son. In fact, he has never regarded the old Duke and the old prince as his parents. In his opinion, this dignified couple are his enemies who kill his father, but they keep him under their knees because of face. They are just for outsiders to see.

Fortunately, his wife died early and his son was sent out to study early. He can do his best to help others destroy the government and avenge his biological father!

In recent years, the women's army has become better and better, and its reputation has become more and more famous. Xun Yang's name is urgent. He has a blister in his mouth, which hasn't been good for several months.
