Gu Qing didn't expect that Xianyu Zhongtong valued the sand table so much. Looking at his solemn expression, Gu Qing couldn't tell whether he really valued the sand table or found an excuse to stay in Shiqiao Village. In just one day, he had already

It can be seen that this Jiedushi's temperament is as innocent as a scholar. Such a person is suitable for playing guitar downstairs in the girls' dormitory, or planning a pop-up event to express love on Valentine's Day. Being a Jiedushi is really a bit incompetent.

"The sand table... is so important? Hasn't it appeared before?" Gu Qing didn't know much about history.

Xianyu Zhongtong thought for a while and said: "It is said that there are huge mountains, rivers and cities built in the tomb of the First Emperor. They are all the original appearance of the mountains and rivers. However, no one knows whether they exist, and no one can think of them being used for military purposes. Everyone thinks that they can be used for military purposes."

The First Emperor's ambition was not to die, and the restoration of the country in the mausoleum was for the purpose of reunifying the world in the next life, which is nothing more than a symbol."

"Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty also had a saying of 'gathering rice into grain' when he was on a campaign. After all, he was replacing mountains, rivers and roads with irrelevant objects, just like children playing. No one took it seriously. Only the sand table you made can

The mountains, rivers and rivers have been restored so similarly. I have never seen anything so exquisite. If it were used in wartime, the commander would only

Standing in front of the sand table, you can have a clear view of the terrain of the battlefield ahead. When issuing military orders, the generals below can also follow the military orders very carefully to arrange soldiers on the battlefield. In particular, the sand table can also conduct enemy-friendly deductions before the war, as well as battle tactics.

Sometimes you can rely on the terrain to set up ambushes, etc. Its uses are so great that it’s hard to describe them all.”

Xianyu Zhongtong stared at the sand table and admired it endlessly.

Turning to look at Gu Qing, Xian Yuzhong said: "I see that you are not very old. Not only can you make wonderful long and short sentences, but you can also make a sand table. How did you come up with the idea of ​​making this thing?"

"The boy said that I opened a porcelain kiln in the back hill of the village, and all the villagers made a living from the porcelain kiln. However, there were too many people coveting it. People spied on and tried to find out the secret recipe for making porcelain. It was difficult for the villagers to guard against it, so the boy had no choice but to make this thing.

The villagers can know the specific entrances and exits and patrol routes at a glance."

Xianyu Zhongtong laughed and said: "Such a wonderful thing is overkill for use in a porcelain kiln. When I arrived in Yizhou, I ordered to make a sand table of the terrain of Jiannan Road, especially the junction of Tubo, Nanzhao and Jiannan."

Due to the terrain, Tubo and Nanzhao have frequently invaded our Jiannan border over the years, causing more than a hundred battles, large and small. I am afraid that one battle will be unavoidable during my last term. If there is a sandbox, my chances of winning in the Tang Dynasty will be a little better."

Looking deeply at Gu Qing's young face, Xian Yuzhong said: "Although we have only been together for a day, I have already seen that you are a man of great talent. It would be unfair to stay in this mountain village. If you are interested, why not

If you go to Yizhou with me, I can hire you as a guest of the Jie Mansion. After assisting me for a few years, I will recommend you as an official to His Majesty. I will not treat you badly in your future, how about it?"

Gu Qing refused without hesitation: "Thank you very much for Jieshuai's kindness. It's just that I was born and raised here, and it's hard to leave my homeland. I don't want to travel far away, and I have let down Jieshuai."

As soon as an opportunity came to the sky, Gu Qing gave up. There were many reasons, and it was difficult to leave his hometown. One of them was that he had his foundation and friends here. After finally getting familiar with it, Gu Qing had no idea of ​​leaving for the time being.

What's more, he always felt that Xianyu Zhongtong was not very reliable. The military governor of one side acted so casually. If there was a war with Nanzhao of Tubo in the future, Gu Qingwei really couldn't believe that the soldiers of Jiannan Road were under the control of this military governor.

He can win the battle under his command, but if he loses, as a secret guest who has a close relationship with him, he may not be able to escape the imperial court's implicated punishment.

Whether out of love or actual interests, Gu Qing had no reason to foolishly follow the military envoy to Yizhou. After thinking about it for a moment, he realized that this would do more harm than good.

Xianyu Zhongtong sighed with little disappointment and stopped trying to persuade him. He said that Gu Qing had a great talent, but in fact it was still a bit hypocritical. Apart from his talent in poetry and prose, although the sand table was exquisite, Gu Qing explained it lightly.

Later, Xian Yu Zhongtong felt that this thing was just a country boy's accidental inspiration and luck. Now that he knew the magical effects of the sand table, it didn't matter whether Gu Qing followed him to Yizhou or not.

"Everyone has his or her own ambitions, so I won't force you. If the sandbox can play a role in the war, I will go to your Majesty to ask for merit. Your Majesty is the Holy Emperor who knows rewards and punishments clearly and will not treat you badly.

"

Gu Qing said nonchalantly: "Thank you so much for the promotion, Commander-in-Chief."

Gu Qing never expected to ask for merit or anything. The Holy Emperor? The current Holy Emperor is probably still soaking in the Huaqing Pool, doing indescribable things with the imperial concubine and the empress, beasts, how can they talk to their daughter-in-law? Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, everyone has

All kinds of cuckolds were flying all over the place. Sons wore cuckolds on their fathers, fathers wore them on their sons, and princesses wore them on their consorts. During this period, there was also a fierce queen who wore countless cuckolds on the entire Li and Tang royal family.

Passion and romance, heroes and gunfire, all seem to be based on the romantic affairs of men and women.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing suddenly remembered that the recent widows in the village looked at him in a strange way. They either covered their mouths shyly and giggled, or they blinked hard with bright faces, and some even bolder ones even asked him directly if he knew.

The wonderful thing about men and women.

Ha, the wonderful thing? Isn’t it just a matter of trembling?

Gu Qing felt that his chastity was in jeopardy, and secretly decided to carry a stick with him when going out from now on, so as not to give anyone a chance to taint himself.

…………

Xianyu Zhongtong temporarily stayed in Shiqiao Village, this time for a legitimate reason.

Regarding the use of the sand table, you must have a thorough understanding from the inside out, including the materials it is made of, how it can match the actual landform, how accurate the scale is, etc. Things that can be seen clearly at a glance, but it is still very difficult to really understand its essential details.

complex.

The courtier studied the sand table every day, but Xianyu Zhongtong was free and wandered around the village every day. Fortunately, his identity was not publicized, otherwise the villagers would not know how panicked they would be. But Xianyu Zhongtong learned his lesson this time, no matter where he went

Wherever I go wandering, I always end up dragging along Gu Qing, whether he wants to or not.

Once bitten by a snake, you will hear the singing of birds everywhere.

No matter how vicious Gu Qing vowed to never trick him into entering the mountain again, Xianyu Zhongtong didn't believe him and just looked at him and sneered, laughing non-stop.

Since we were wandering around, we couldn't avoid visiting the porcelain kiln. Xianyu Zhongtong was not very interested in this aspect. He only looked around outside the fence and had no intention of going in to find out.

"Just because of this porcelain kiln, you don't want to go to Yizhou with me?" Xianyu Zhongtong frowned: "You are obsessed with money at a young age. Is money so important?"

Gu Qing thought for a while and said seriously: "It's important."

After spending a few days together, Gu Qing was no longer in awe of this Jiedu envoy. Although he was a powerful prince, Xian Yu Zhongtong rarely had any official airs, and his temper was pretty good. Perhaps he only had such an easy-going temper.

, he could get along like a fish in Chang'an, or maybe his good temper was only for talented people like Gu Qing, but he was not so polite to his followers.

The relationship between the two now feels like a year-old friendship, and Gu Qing has the courage to occasionally make some harmless jokes with Xian Yu Zhongtong.

Standing on the high slope of the porcelain kiln, Gu Qing was introducing the general process of porcelain firing to Xian Yu Zhongtong. Suddenly there was a noise down the slope, and a craftsman hurriedly ran from a distance, and said anxiously: "My boss, it's not good, Qingcheng."
