Gu Qingcheng also changed the way she addressed Chen Duan.
Chen Duan is the ninth child in the family, so people close to him call him Jiulang.
"However, if you have to admit defeat, then you have to show the attitude of admitting defeat."
Gu Qingcheng is not a saint, she put forward a condition:
"First, all mountain dwellers of the Linyuan tribe must register their household registration with the Yuezhou government."
"Second, the Linyuan tribe must accept the government's education. All boys and girls under the age of twelve must study and learn the classics of the sages."
It is not possible to "transform the native tribes into Han people" at present, but indigenous tribes like the Linyuan tribe must be under the jurisdiction of the government.
Educate, go down the mountain, slowly integrate, and finally achieve great unification!
Chen Duan's eyes flickered.
This Gu, at such a young age, still has the persistence and sense of mission to "educate the people"?
She is indeed worthy of the burden of being the "mistress"!
…
After dealing with the Linyuan tribe, the large army continued on their journey and arrived at Gu's Wu Fort.
"Is this the Gu family's Wu Castle in Yuezhou?"
Seeing the towering city walls and the tight defenses, Chen Duan's Adam's apple rolled a few times.
"Yes! This is the Gu's Wu Castle that I built with my own hands!"
Gu Qingcheng did not hide her incompetence, nor did she put all the credit on Aong.
It was her doing, it was her doing.
Chen Duan used the Linyuan tribe incident to show off his muscles to her.
She is also not shy about showing off her excellence!
“…”
Chen Duan didn't say anything, just looked at Gu Qingcheng steadily.
The city before us, which is more magnificent than Yuezhou Prefecture, is actually just a Wu Fort.
The city walls were so high that carriages could run on them;
It is not easy to attack the city with such a deep moat.
Passing through the city gate, there are fields and farmhouses.
Just relying on these farmlands, Wubao can hold out for several years even if it is besieged!
Beyond the outer city, there is the inner city.
The inner city is full of houses and prosperous shops.
The streets are bustling with people coming and going, and it doesn't look like a private castle at all, but rather a prosperous city.
No, not just prosperous!
And clean!
Yes, Chen Duan discovered that the inner city of Gu’s Wu Castle was very clean.
There is almost no cow and horse dung on the streets, and no sewage flowing.
Every street has drainage ditches, and every household can "sweep the snow in front of their own door".
There should be people who specialize in cleaning public streets.
"……Why?"
Chen Duan looked at the clean and tidy streets and suddenly asked this question.
He did not think it was "pretentious" of a noble lady to make the city look like her own boudoir.
Once again, I want to emphasize that Gu Qing is not an ordinary girl.
Everything she does has a reason and a purpose!
Chen Duan's question was confusing, but Gu Qingcheng understood it.
She didn't hide anything, but answered with a "frank" look, "If I'm clean, I won't get sick!"
"Lingnan has a unique climate, and places like Yuezhou are hot and humid year-round."
"In such an environment, snakes, insects, rats and ants are particularly domineering."
At this point, Gu Qingcheng did not forget to give an example: "Jiulang has been in Guangcheng for a few months, and he must have personally experienced how powerful the mosquitoes in Guangcheng are!"
When Chen Duan heard the word "mosquitoes", he couldn't help but twitch his forehead.
Jiankang is also hot and humid, and there are mosquitoes.
But it definitely won't reach Guangcheng's almost perverted level.
In the middle of winter, a mosquito that big can leave a bruise with just one bite.
If you train your troops outside the city, you will be bitten and covered in blood.
In severe cases, there will be fever, or even -
It was only when there were casualties in the military camp that Chen Duan finally understood why the world feared Lingnan like a tiger.
It's not just remote, it's not just wild, but those snakes, insects, rats and ants can really take lives!
"Hmm!" Chen Duan snorted, indicating that he had indeed experienced the ferocity of mosquitoes.
Gu Qingcheng curled the corners of her lips, and a hint of playfulness flashed in her beautiful almond-shaped eyes.
She seemed to enjoy the occasional embarrassment her hero exuded.
Chen Duan: ...She is still young after all, but Gu Qing is becoming more and more lively.
"Being cleaner can reduce the number of diseases caused by mosquito bites, even if it cannot eliminate mosquitoes."
"The miasma in Lingnan is most likely caused by a virus bred by snakes, insects, rats and ants!"
Gu Qingcheng restrained her smile and spoke seriously.
Her words made Chen Duantong shrink suddenly - Gu Sanniang actually revealed her biggest trump card?
Doesn’t she know how precious the “secret” of the Gu family’s roots in Lingnan is?
Chen Duan looked straight into Gu Qingcheng's eyes. Her radiant phoenix eyes were clean and clear, like mountain spring water.
She knows!
But she was still willing to share the secret with him.
Gu treats me so sincerely?
Chen Duan's heart was slightly touched.
Originally he just wanted to find a suitable and virtuous wife, but Chen Duan didn't even realize that he had fallen in love.
Huoshui tickled his nose:...What is this?
With the power of Her Majesty the Queen, you will become love-brained sooner or later!
