"Is this useful? If it is really useful, then what is the point of fighting?" Wang Yuan asked in confusion.
"Of course it is useful. War is just a means of politics and diplomacy. What do you think is the purpose of war?" Zhao Qingrui nodded and asked in return.
"Expand the territory, kill the invading enemies, and defend the country." Wang Yuan thought for a while and said seriously.
"It's for profit and resources." Zhao Qingrui said solemnly.
Wang Yuan fell into deep thought. He was not stupid, but very smart, otherwise he would not have been trained since childhood. Wang Li even wanted to take him to the battlefield.
Although Daqin was not very wealthy, it was better off than the Xiongnu tribes. Daqin had a lot of resources, and the grasslands lacked many things. How could they survive if they didn't come to rob them?
Although war is cruel, it is a necessary means.
Zhao Qingrui didn't disturb him, believing that he could figure it out.
When the two brothers left, Zhao Qingrui gave them a bag of dried fish.
They walked towards home in a daze, and when they arrived at the door, they saw a row of people waiting for them at the door.
When they met the grandfather's half-smiling eyes, the two brothers felt nervous. It's over, they were discovered.
"Where have you been playing? Have you finished the homework assigned to you?" Wang Jian looked at the two little bastards. Wow, they even learned to climb over the wall to get out.
When the two brothers went out, he was reading a book in the backyard. The two brothers looked so skilled that it was obviously not their first time climbing the wall.
"Grandpa, cousins, why are you all out? It's so sunny outside, are you hot, Grandpa? Come on, I'll help you go back to your room to rest. It's so hot. You brothers are so stupid that you don't even know how to take good care of Grandpa." Wang Wei's eyes turned, and he immediately ran over to help Wang Jian walk into the house.
Wang Jian stood there, allowing his grandson to push him, and refused to move.
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me the truth, where have you been?" Wang Jian rolled his eyes at him. This brat has learned how to fool people.
He was also aware of the emperor's movements during this period. There were many more masters of the Black Ice Platform near the Meng family's villa. He was a little confused as to how these two guys had contact with the people living in the courtyard.
To be honest, he didn't want his family or affairs to involve His Majesty.
Everything that happens in that courtyard over there is Your Majesty's business.
"Wang Yuan, you speak." The little grandson was smooth-talking, while Wang Yuan was more steady.
He is old and can't stand the hardship anymore. He just wants the Wang family to be safe and sound.
The other brothers in the Wang family looked at the two brothers curiously. The Wang family was a large family with many people and they were relatively harmonious among themselves.
"Grandpa, we met a friend in Xianyang and just chatted with her. Grandpa, we also brought you a gift." Wang Yuan reluctantly gave up the small package and presented it with a heartache.
Wang Wei didn't dare to say anything. Who would dare to snatch things from the grandfather? If he dared, he would be whipped twice when the grandfather came back at night.
Seeing his two grandsons looking reluctant to part with them, Wang Jian became interested.
He took the package and opened it.
A faint fishy smell came, followed by a burnt aroma, which made people drool unconsciously.
"What is this? Food?" Wang Jian glanced at the two brothers sideways, trying to bribe him?
"Well, this is called dried fish, and it's delicious." Wang Wei swallowed silently.
Wang Jian picked up a small fish and put it in his mouth. The dried fish was spicy, crispy and flavorful, a taste he had never tasted before.
I unconsciously took another one and put it in my mouth. It tasted better and better.
"It tastes good. I'll put it away. I'll let you two go this time. Come with me into the house." Wang Jian looked at everyone around him staring at the dried fish he was holding, so he closed the small package directly to prevent his grandchildren and great-grandchildren from coveting it.
The two brothers followed Wang Jian with bitter faces. They were so sad that they couldn't save the dried fish.
"Why are you all following me? Have you finished your homework? Have you finished today's training?" Wang Jian shouted when he saw that there was a large group of people following him.
Although he is not young anymore, he is in good health and is full of energy when teaching the younger generations in his family.
The Wang Yuan brothers were about to leave, but Wang Jian stopped them, saying, "You two stay."
Wang Jian confiscated the dried fish and asked the housekeeper to carefully put it away, preparing to eat it slowly.
The two boys smelled of dried fish, and it was obvious that they had eaten a lot.
To be honest, he was also a little curious about the affairs of that villa.
"Tell me honestly, what have you been doing for the past hour?" Wang Jian asked calmly.
The two brothers didn't dare to hide it, so they had to tell her that they met Zhao Qingrui when they came back before, and then they sneaked away several times to go there to play with her.
Wang Jian's face darkened. These two guys climbed over the wall several times just for food?
Those who don’t know would think that the Wang family shortchanged them. It’s shameful, so shameful.
"Who is that girl? You've been away for so long, do you know her?" Wang Jian looked at the two of them.
"Of course we know. My sister's name is Zhao Qingrui, and the cook in her family can make a lot of delicious food." Wang Wei said immediately.
"Miss Zhao is very knowledgeable and understands a lot of things." Wang Yuan said seriously.
During this period, as Zhao Qingrui was willing to make friends with them, the two brothers became more fond of her.
In addition, she came from the modern era, in that era of information explosion, so naturally she knew more.
The two brothers talked back and forth, and almost told Zhao Qingrui everything he had said when they went to Zhao's house in the past few days.
The more Wang Jian listened, the more frightened he became. There were many things Zhao Qingrui said that he didn't know.
Especially she talked about war, taught Wang Yuan how to fight, and told him about the world outside Daqin.
Seeing that the grandfather's face was getting more and more serious, the two brothers began to realize that things were not simple.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Wang Yuan asked cautiously.
"It's okay, you guys go down first." Wang Jian waved his hand. He needed to think about it carefully.
"Grandpa, can we still go to see Sister Zhao?" Wang Wei asked expectantly. There are so many delicious foods at his sister's house. What if Grandpa doesn't let him go?
"You can go, but next time you go, you have to tell me first." Wang Jian glanced at the two guys indifferently. If he didn't agree, the two brothers would probably still find ways to escape.
"I knew you were the best, Grandpa." The two brothers were very excited that they had found a way out with Grandpa.
Seeing the two boys so happy, Wang Jian smiled bitterly. After knowing that the girl's surname was Zhao, and thinking about what Meng Yi had done during this period, Wang Jian almost guessed Zhao Qingrui's identity.
Fortunately, she was just a girl, and the two brothers went to play with her. His Majesty did not stop them. I guess he agreed that the two boys could have a relationship with the girl.
