Chapter 300 You Are Afraid I'll Take Away Aunt's Favor
Qin Huaishu was really helpless and had no way to deal with Chu Yian.
I didn't want to talk to her about these trivial things, so I urged her to write some more content.
After Ying Zheng dealt with the matter of Lu Buwei, he began to work for water conservancy in the world.
It took almost everyone's efforts and a lot of effort to finally build the Zhengguo Canal, which not only witnessed his great achievements, but also turned the Guanzhong Plain into the center of China, boosting grain production and a booming economy.
The construction of Zhengguo Canal was extremely difficult, and later generations are unable to fully see the twists and turns involved.
But there is no need to say more about how much role this canal has played and what value it has from ancient times to the present.
It can be said that without the Zhengguo Canal, it would have been impossible for Ying Zheng to unify the six kingdoms in such a short period of time, and Chinese history might even have been rewritten.
Of course this is a joke, but it is enough to show the influence and importance of Zhengguo Canal on history.
It is really sad to say that Zheng Guo, the hydraulic expert who built the Zhengguo Canal, was originally Korean. Korea was constantly attacked by the Qin State, and its land area continued to shrink.
The purpose of sending Zheng Guo to Qin State to build large-scale water conservancy projects was to "exhaust Qin".
If the Qin State wanted to build water conservancy projects, it would require a large amount of manpower, material resources and financial resources, which would greatly consume the Qin State's national strength and it would have no time to attack the South Korea.
Who would have thought that just six years after the Zhengguo Canal was built, the Kingdom of Han was destroyed and the economic strength of the Qin State increased greatly.
The tired Qin became a strong Qin, and I don’t know whether the Queen of Han regretted sending Zheng to Qin.
However, even if there was no Zhengguo Canal, South Korea would have perished. It was just a matter of time.
Unfortunately, this great water conservancy project has been abandoned due to natural invasions, human destruction, lack of maintenance and other reasons, and now only ruins remain.
Each canal and each weir are extremely important water conservancy projects in history. They not only promoted grain production, but also provided a technical blueprint for many water conservancy projects in later generations.
The book spends a lot of words describing the difficulties in building the Zhengguo Canal, but Chu Yian didn't remember it, so he just brushed it off and let Qin Huaishu write it himself.
I looked at the sky and it was getting late, so it was almost time to rest.
Besides, she hasn't practiced martial arts today, so she has to leave some time for herself and not waste it.
Now I feel uncomfortable all over if I don’t exercise for a day.
Chu Yian bared his teeth and patted Qin Huaishu's shoulder: "My son, you must write Zheng Guoqu well, this is very important."
"After the Zhengguo Canal was built, Ying Zheng began to realize his great dream of unifying the six kingdoms. I will try to finish writing about the unification of the six kingdoms by tomorrow night."
"Long live the Great Qin, long live our ancestors."
Qin Huaishu: ...
Qin Huaishu's mouth twitched: "Let's not talk about whether it will last forever, there's no need to be so anxious."
If you write too hastily, many things will be ignored and forgotten, which is a pity.
In this case, he would rather slow down the pace a bit and write the article as carefully and detailed as possible.
Chu Yian smiled and said, "It's okay. I remember all the important things. Besides, aren't you leaving early the day after tomorrow?"
"I know you're thinking about what's coming next, so we'll start early tomorrow."
After a pause, she suddenly asked, "By the way, you are leaving, is my second brother coming back?"
Qin Huaishu put down the pen in his hand and shook his head gently: "I didn't come back so soon. I was delayed by things outside."
Chu Yian was dumbfounded: "What about my book? I'll write it after Qin Sheng comes back?"
After Qin Huaishu passed away, there was no one in the Duke of Qin's Mansion to help her write books.
It is not easy to find another person who is as talented in both literature and martial arts as the two brothers and understands military tactics. To be honest, Chu Yian even doubts whether Qin Rang is qualified.
Who knew that this bastard would never come back.
Qin Huaishu thought for a moment, his eyes curved: "Well, then let's wait for a small victory."
"Anyway, there hasn't been any new content out there for a long time, and the students are almost done with the previous content, so ten days or half a month won't make a difference."
Ten days or half a month is not the time for Qin Sheng to come back, but the time for the outside world to continue to update.
The corners of Chu Yian's mouth twitched. She wanted to finish writing this book quickly.
Judging from what Qin Huaishu said, the matter that troubled Qin Rang was quite serious and would prevent him from returning in a short time.
Qin Sheng, who was far away in the frontier, was the one who returned the fastest.
All right, this is a good time to practice martial arts and complete tasks, and try to get more stuff.
Those things are not only useful, but can also predict the future.
Maybe the random items you get can be of great use.
“Brother, when are you going to start posting new content again?”
Chu Yian is quite looking forward to it.
After all, it's quite uncomfortable not getting any feedback after finishing the work, as if she is just entertaining herself alone.
Or maybe after she finishes writing, it takes a long time to get feedback, and her enthusiasm is gone, and she doesn't want to hear what they say anymore.
Seeing her like that, Qin Huaishu knew what she was thinking. After thinking for a moment, he said, "There's no rush for this matter. Let's wait a little longer."
Qu Shuyang hasn't gotten rid of Dong Jingwen yet, so it's not appropriate to release it at this time. Let's wait until Qu Shuyang gets rid of that person.
But it will be soon, in the next few days.
But it doesn't mean you can continue to update once you get rid of it.
Qin Huaishu added, "There's a long gap between what you wrote before and what you're writing now. Even if you resume, you won't get any effective feedback."
Yes, Chu Yian felt even more regretful and could only give up.
Seeing that she wanted to leave, Qin Huaishu stopped her and said, "By the way, do you have any articles today?"
article?
Chu Yian's big eyes were filled with confusion. He walked over and flipped through the manuscript paper he had just written to see what characters were on it.
Then he slapped his forehead and said, "Look at me, I forgot about this."
She sat down again. "There's actually a very important article. In our world, it's a required study for students."
She took another piece of paper and spread it in front of Qin Huaishu. Her eyes curved up, and under the candlelight, she showed a kind of calmness that was almost invisible in her.
"Write it. The title of the article is 'Encouraging Learning', and the author is Xunzi."
"A gentleman says: Learning should never cease. Blue is derived from indigo, yet it is bluer than indigo. Ice is made of water, yet it is colder than water..."
"When earth accumulates to form a mountain, wind and rain arise. When water accumulates to form a deep pool, dragons are born..."
After finishing the article, Chu Yian really wanted to add a full text recitation at the end.
Although she learned excerpts in school, she was required to recite the entire text later!
But after thinking about it, I decided to give up. Scholars of this era will memorize articles they like when they come across them.
They are familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and some even memorize them by heart. An article on encouraging learning is not difficult for them.
Forget it, there's no need to humiliate yourself.
Chu Yian waved goodbye and left, not even interested in listening to Qin Huaishu's comments on the article.
She just wanted to hear what future students would say when they read "Encouraging Learning".
He returned to Fuhuayuan with the sword, practiced a few sets of boxing in the yard, then pulled out the sword he had been thinking about and began to practice.
It took me a lot of time to master those moves, and they became more and more convenient to use.
The sword light was sharp, and it actually looked like that.
Qin Wu, who was hiding in the dark, felt a little itchy. He carefully jumped onto the tree closest to Chu Yian and asked her, "Madam, would you like me to practice a few moves with you? It can help you get familiar with swordsmanship faster."
Chu Yian stopped what he was doing and showed some interest: "Come on."
Qin Wu jumped down from the tree. There was moonlight in the sky and his figure could be seen.
Qin Wu drew his sword and went forward to meet the enemy. It would not matter if he did not fight, but once he did, he found that it was really difficult to master those moves.
It is impossible to follow the sword manual when fighting with someone.
Chu Yian was in a bad mood. It was not possible to practice alone. He had to practice with an expert to see the effect.
As expected, she was defeated. She threw away her sword and planned to try her fists: "Come again."
"Yes." Qin Wu also threw away his sword and fought with Chu Yian.
Chu Yian had just started practicing swordsmanship, and had been practicing boxing for a while. He was not only familiar with it, but could also use it more flexibly than swordsmanship.
Chu Yian also noticed it, but she still had a long way to go before she could defeat Qin Wu. After just a few moves, she was defeated again.
Qin Wu comforted her: "Madam is really amazing. You have become so powerful after such a short training time."
Chu Yian gladly accepted the compliment. Although he felt a little frustrated, he also knew that this was the only way to go. He became happy again: "You should accompany me to practice more in the future."
"Yes." Qin Wu was about to leave when Chu Yian took off the not-very-bulky purse from his waist and threw it to him: "Go and have a rest."
Qin Wu took the purse, clasped his fists, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chu Yian discovered that most of these secret guards were of steady character, except for this baby-faced one who was a little bit eccentric.
Being a secret guard is really hard for him.
After practicing for a while, I went back to my room and slept, having a dreamless night.
Chu Yian got up early and practiced martial arts in the yard. Soon Sheng Lingchuan also came and was a little shocked to see her start practicing martial arts so early.
The bruises on his face hadn't faded in the past day, but he looked much better than yesterday.
He walked up to Chu Yian and opened his mouth, very confused: "Why did you get up so early to practice martial arts?"
Chu Yian didn't stop his hands and replied casually: "Just get up when you wake up. There's nothing to do anyway."
Sheng Lingchuan:......
Even after waking up, he still wanted to stay in bed until the last moment.
Even if he got up, he would not practice martial arts or study.
But Chu Yian... why can't he understand?
And what's the point of her practicing martial arts? To beat him? Or to beat other young masters?
That's enough, there's no need to practice any more.
Sheng Lingchuan said with a bitter face: "Can you please stop practicing? You're making me anxious."
Chu Yian was puzzled and ignored him.
Sheng Lingchuan: "It's that feeling. The people around me are working hard, but I'm doing nothing and don't want to do anything. I feel like a waste, you know?"
Understand, Chu Yian understands too well.
I am not afraid that I don’t work hard, I am afraid that others work hard behind my back.
But what does it have to do with her? She's just a kid with some martial arts dreams.
"But aren't you just trash?"
Sheng Lingchuan: ...It hurts.
Sheng Lingchuan looked flustered: "Or, just hit me."
Chu Yian: ...
Chu Yian stopped what he was doing and looked at him with an indescribable look.
This guy... is a bastard.
Seeing her stop, Sheng Lingchuan breathed a sigh of relief, rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward: "Come."
Chu Yian: ...
Chu Yian rolled his eyes: "Go away, go back to the Sheng family, my eyes hurt just seeing you."
Sheng Lingchuan couldn't believe it. Why did they send him away so quickly?
Not knowing what he was thinking about, he took a few steps back and sneered: "Oh, you are scared."
Chu Yian:?
My hands are itchy and I want to hit someone. My feet are itchy and I want to kick someone.
Sheng Lingchuan crossed his arms and looked disdainful: "Chu Yian, you won over my mother and made her trust you unconditionally, and you still treat me like this."
"You're afraid that I might win over your mother-in-law and make you lose favor in the Duke's Mansion."
Chu Yian: ...
Chu Yian closed his eyes and endured it again and again, reminding himself not to beat him for pleasure.
But he couldn't help it, he stepped forward and punched Sheng Lingchuan, knocking him away, then kicked him a few times, and he felt relieved all over.
Sheng Lingchuan lay on the ground groaning, his face bruised and swollen, and said to the servants assigned to him by the Tao family who were standing not far away: "Go tell my aunt that this is not Sister Yi An's fault, it's all my fault."
Chu Yian: ...
She had never been so speechless in her life, really.
Sheng Lingchuan really is... not masculine at all, and is extremely sinister.
She's about to become autistic.
Such talents are rare.
Chu Yian looked down at Sheng Lingchuan, who was lying on the ground groaning, and almost begged him: "Go home, really, I have vented all my anger, your mission is completed, you can go and report to your aunt."
Sheng Lingchuan stood up with the help of the tree and rolled his eyes at her: "You asked me to come and I'm here, you want me to leave? Haha, I want you to know why it's easier to invite a god than to send him away!"
Chu Yian: ...
Sheng Lingchuan hesitated for a moment, touched his face, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes: "But don't hit me in the face next time, it will be difficult for me to go out."
He limped out: "I'm going to look for my aunt. By the way, Chu Yian, you should get a good night's sleep in the morning. It's good for your skin. You girls should get more sleep."
"Don't get up so early in the morning to practice martial arts. Alas, it's really impossible to teach you."
Chu Yian: ...
No, when was it Sheng Lingchuan's turn to teach her how to do things? And is this even human language?
She curled her lips, looking at Sheng Lingchuan with increasing displeasure. She chased after him and sneered, "If that's what you said, then starting tomorrow, you have to get up in the morning and read to me."
"He's still a juren at such an old age. He's really not ashamed of it at all."
"I've never seen a grown man like you who spends all his time trying to please others. You're so perverted that you even neglect your studies. No wonder you can't pass the imperial examination."
This was Sheng Lingchuan's weak spot, and he got furious: "Could you please stop bringing this up?"
Chu Yian bared his teeth: "No, you either get up early and study, or go back to the Sheng family."
Sheng Lingchuan glared at her, and seeing the provocation in Chu Yian's eyes, he laughed angrily: "Don't you just want to force me away? You are afraid. You are afraid that your aunt will really alienate you and think that you are a violent woman, not dignified and quiet at all."
"You seduced my mother into this state. I won't let this go."
"You want to kick me out? It's not that easy. It's just studying, right? Haha. Just send someone to the Sheng family to get all my books."
"I'm afraid of studying? What a joke."
After saying that, he limped away, leaving Chu Yian behind, his back showing anger.
Chu Yian was speechless and wanted to laugh after seeing this.
It turns out that it wasn't that Sheng Lingchuan didn't work hard, it was that they didn't find a way.
Look, this toad still moves when you poke it.
I wonder if my aunt will feel a little relieved when she finds out? Alas, he is my aunt's son after all. It would be unreasonable for her, as an elder, not to be gentle with him. It would be difficult to explain to my aunt.
When we arrived at the main courtyard, Qin Huaishu and Tao were already waiting there.
Seeing Sheng Lingchuan's face, which had finally subsided and became even more swollen and purple, Tao closed her eyes and turned her head away.
For ugly people, looking closely is cruel.
Sheng Lingchuan's face was no less bruised than mine.
Can’t the boy from the Sheng family let her have a happy breakfast?
Not only did he come over with such a face, but he also had to get close to her.
Sheng Lingchuan said aggrievedly: "Aunt, although it was Sister Yi An who beat me, I'm used to it and don't blame her."
Dow: ...
Qin Huaishu looked at Chu Yian, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help laughing for a rare moment.
Qin Huaishu left right after dinner, and Tao also made an excuse to slip away, not wanting to bother with the grudge between Sheng Lingchuan and Chu Yian.
Chu Yian also wanted to slip away, but just as she lifted her foot, a servant came up to her, bowed slightly, and said, "Madam San Shao, Miss Su San has entered the palace."
