"Well……"
Although Nan Wu Ju was about to say this, he didn't know how to respond after Zhao Xin opened his mouth.
"Haha, to be honest with Your Majesty, I would like to take this opportunity to bring up this matter today."
Just when Nan Wu Ju was stunned, Nan Cang laughed and took over the topic.
At this time, Nan Luoying, who had been standing next to him, also reacted and became a little anxious.
What's going on? How did it get to the point of talking about my marriage?
If it was before, she would have jumped out to protest immediately.
But after several contacts, although she didn't realize it herself, her opinion of the emperor had changed greatly in her heart.
At least she didn't think the emperor was as foolish and incompetent as others said. Instead, she felt that Zhao Xin was not only decisive and efficient in his work, but also often said things that surprised her and made sense.
Although she felt a little resentful about the emperor defeating her before, this resentment itself was a kind of recognition.
Otherwise, with her personality, she wouldn't bother to care about such things.
However, she had never lost to anyone since she was a child. This time, she lost to the emperor in both strength and wisdom, which naturally aroused her competitive character.
"But if I really marry the emperor, will I have to stay in the deep palace all day like my sister, the queen, and not be able to leave?
How can I lead troops to war? Am I going to command a bunch of palace maids and eunuchs in the palace? That would be so boring!"
But if I don't agree, it doesn't seem good either. After all, the emperor is very loyal and asked me to be the commander-in-chief... If I refuse, wouldn't it be very disrespectful?
"What should we do?"
Nan Luoying, who is usually carefree, was unusually conflicted.
Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Xin laughed again and said, "What a coincidence! In this way, the Grand Marshal and I have the same idea."
After saying this, he clapped his hands and said, "If that's the case, then I'm relieved."
Then he tilted his head slightly and called out in a low voice, "Cao Xiong, go and invite the Chief of the Imperial Clan and Zhao Honglu!"
Cao Xiong was smart this time. Upon hearing this, he immediately bowed with a smile and said "Yes". He then sent someone to invite Zhao Ben and the Zongzheng Zhao Hu.
Zhao Xin then glanced at him again and said, "Go to the North Study and bring me the two books I copied these past two days. Do you know which ones they are?"
"I know, I know. It should be those two books of military strategy, right?"
Cao Xiong asked with a flattering smile.
Seeing Zhao Xin nod, he hurriedly trotted to the north study.
Nan Luoying watched these people talking to themselves, completely ignoring the opinions of her party. She was about to protest when she suddenly heard Zhao Xin talking about military strategy, and her eyes lit up.
Suddenly, I seemed to understand what Zhao Xin meant.
I couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, is this military strategy for me?"
"Luo Ying, don't be rude!"
When Nan Wu Ju heard the word "military strategy", his heart moved, but when he saw that she actually asked the emperor directly like this, he still glared at her unhappily.
This attitude, to put it more seriously, is disrespectful in front of the emperor. Although the emperor will definitely not pursue this situation, Nan Wu Ju cannot tolerate it.
Zhao Xin, however, didn't care. He looked at Nan Luoying and smiled faintly, saying, "Yes, since it's a betrothal gift, how could there be only gifts for the Grand Marshal and the General, but not for you, Luoying?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Nan Luoying seemed to have suddenly resolved the confusion in her heart and smiled widely.
Seeing this, Nan Wu Ju couldn't help but frown slightly again.
As a father, he couldn't understand why his daughter suddenly became happy.
Little did he know that when Nan Luoying heard that Zhao Xin was going to give her the art of war, she instantly understood that Zhao Xin was telling her that even after getting married and entering the palace, she could still do what she liked.
Otherwise, why would you give the art of war to a concubine?
Even though General Nan was well versed in military strategy, it was indeed difficult for him to understand such little girlish thoughts.
However, the old man from Nan Cang was very experienced and vaguely understood something, but he just smiled and said nothing.
Although Luo Ying's marriage to the emperor was politically necessary, if the emperor and Luo Ying could have a harmonious relationship, it would actually be more important to Nan Cang than politics.
The emperor, Nan Luoying, and Nan Cang, the old and two young, all understood what he meant at this time, but the two brothers Nan Wu Ju and Nan Wu You were confused.
I don't understand why the atmosphere in the room suddenly became full of love and affection when the emperor said he would give Luo Ying two books on military strategy.
It’s just the art of war, doesn’t it? Does my Nan family still lack the art of war?
I haven't seen this girl study military tactics seriously at all times!
For a moment, Nan Wu Jue had the thought, "This is probably what it means when a girl grows up, she can't be kept at home."
As the uncle, Nan Wuyou also seemed to feel that his lovely niece, who had been following him and pestering him to learn martial arts, was getting farther away.
So sad...
Just at this moment, Cao Xiong was already running back in small steps.
He held a jade plate in his hand, on which were two bound books.
"His Majesty."
After coming closer, he first presented it to Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin picked it up and flipped it over, confirming that it was correct, then put it back on the tray with a smile.
That day he discovered that he had said a cliché from Sun Tzu's Art of War, but Nan Luoying didn't even know it.
After that, he became obsessed with it.
After returning to the study and looking through it, he called a few Confucian scholars to ask them, and then he found that many classics of the Chinese world were not available in this world.
Except for the Confucian books, most of the others are missing.
He simply couldn't believe it.
It only makes me understand after thinking about it, the original author probably set it up this way just to make the protagonist show off?
Sorry, I'm pretending to be this tough now.
I wonder if this counts as a plot twist?
If this counts, then I will become a plagiarist tomorrow!
However, I'm afraid it's not that simple...
But no matter what, when he had nothing to do, he still copied out a few books from his previous life.
I can't remember some of them clearly, so I can only make them up myself, but the general meaning has not changed, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
This also includes these two military books, one is "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, and the other is "Ji Xiao Xin Shu" by Qi Jiguang, both of which are classic and common military books.
Of course, apart from these classic and common ones, he didn't remember the others, and there were some that he had only heard of.
As for this one, the latter one was also partially fabricated by him by combining some other military classics.
There is no way, firstly many of them are totally incompatible with the current situation.
Secondly, I can’t remember it.
Really, if I had known I would travel through time, I would have done nothing but memorize books!
Zhao Xin smacked his lips with some regret, then winked at Cao Xiong.
The latter immediately understood and, with a beaming smile on his face, he held up the two military manuals in front of Nan Luoying and the others and said, "General Nan, His Majesty knows that Miss Luoying is fond of military science, so he personally wrote these two military manuals for you."
Then he emphasized again: "These are all written by Your Majesty himself, word for word!"
"Ah, this... is actually written by His Majesty!"
Everyone in the Nan family was moved when they heard this.
