Chapter 311: Your Majesty, It's Time To Take Medicine
Since the founding of the state of Chu, Taoism and Wendao have lagged behind the two countries. Although the national policy of advocating literature and martial arts has supported Wendao for many years, the gap has not diminished much.
Now that Chu Huangming knew that the war would eventually come, Zhou Guo and Zhao Guo would not give up this opportunity, but they were still trying their best to extend the deadline.
If the war came one day later, Chu would be able to accumulate more strength.
Naturally, the sooner the missions of the two countries go back, the better. The later they go back, the later the war will start.
That is to say, even if Zhao Guo just made up an excuse on the grounds of being an envoy, and had no intention of playing chess with poetry, Emperor Chu had to force them to compete.
It is good for Chu State that these missions stay in Chu State for one more day.
Because according to the rules, even if the prince and princess in the Zhou State mission were really assassinated, Zhou State had to ask Chu State to find out the murderer first, and then bring back the letter of credence from Chu State to Zhou State and hand it over to the court of Zhou State. After completing this mission, the two sides can go to war later.
This is the courtesy and rules that the Three Kingdoms have maintained for decades.
After the Emperor Chu finished the task, the two elders cupped their hands and resigned, but they didn't let Xu Qing go.
Xu Qing bowed and said, "Your Majesty has other matters to keep your ministers here?"
Emperor Chu nodded and said: "At Zhou Guo's dust-cleaning banquet, many doctors from the State Supervision Department couldn't solve the problem, but you sketched a few strokes at will and solved it easily. On the contrary, it can be seen that you are very good at arithmetic."
"My country of Chu lags behind the two countries in terms of both calculation and writing. The success of writing and writing does not happen overnight, but if the calculation of calculation has a famous teacher, it will soon make progress after diligent study and practice."
Xu Qing also understood when he heard this: "Your Majesty wants to let the ministers teach arithmetic skills, so that I can make calculations?"
Emperor Chu nodded and said: "Yes, I know that you are usually tired, but this is related to the future development of my great Chu, so I plan to let you go to the Imperial College to teach arithmetic. You must not refuse, and you can feel free to give me any rewards you want." Open your mouth. By the way, you can open your mouth, but if you ask for more, you can’t give it.”
The corner of Xu Qing's mouth twitched, okay, if you want too much, don't give it up, if you can't afford it, then don't play so big.
But Xu Qing still cupped hands and said: "Actually, Your Majesty's National Chamber of Commerce has a special training on mathematics, and has formed a complete training process. In fact, if you count the talents cultivated by the National Chamber of Commerce during this period, plus The abacus originally created by the Shangguo Business School may be stronger than Zhou's abacus."
When Emperor Chu heard this, his eyes lit up, and he patted Xu Qing on the shoulder: "Okay, Brother Huang and I did not misunderstand you, and even learned to plan ahead, not bad! Not bad!"
Xu Qing rubbed the sore shoulders that had been patted by Emperor Chu. He still underestimated the strength of Emperor Chu's hand, so he just said, as the little brother of the virtuous king, how could he be as weak as he appeared on the surface.
The martial arts gene of the old Xiao family cannot be changed!
Xu Qing said: "Actually, it's not a rainy day. The State Chamber of Commerce is exposed to a lot of numbers on weekdays. As early as in Yongzhou, it started a series of talent training on mathematics in order to cope with the increasing number of accounting offices of the State Entrepreneur. "
Chu Huang smiled and said: "It seems that this national business school is right. It not only made money for my big Chu, but also added a group of talents for my big Chu. Good!"
At this moment, Concubine Chen Hui walked in with a small delicate box in her hand and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to take your medicine."
When Xu Qing heard this, he almost spit out a mouthful of old phlegm.
Why does this sentence sound so familiar?
Is it regular medicine?
Concubine Chen Hui then looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Who is this?"
Xu Qing cupped hands and said: "Xu Qing, Uncle of Anding County, has met your empress."
Concubine Chen Hui said: "It turned out to be the Uncle of Anding County, no wonder he was able to appear in His Majesty's imperial study at such a young age. The Uncle of Anding's family is indeed very powerful."
In the last sentence, Xu Qing clearly heard the sarcasm in it.
It seems that this person is King Qi's biological mother. Except for a little bit of trouble with King Qi and the Chen family, King Qi has not offended anyone else.
However, Xu Qing can't turn against Concubine Chen Hui here, so she can only keep silent and ignore it selectively.
Concubine Chen Hui saw that Xu Qing didn't talk to her, so she continued: "However, County Uncle An Ding should discipline his own lady well, relying on some tricks to scare others, how can she look like a girl, what's the proper way to behave like this?!"
Xu Qing's eyes froze when he heard this, and then he said calmly: "What my wife likes to do, don't worry about it."
Concubine Chen Hui immediately looked at Emperor Chu and said: "Your Majesty, is this the pillar of the country you said? Look at his tone, the concubine kindly reminded Yu Anding County Bo, but this Anding County Bo How can a person without a ruler be of great use?"
Emperor Chu also frowned, Concubine Chen Hui's tone was very strange when she saw Xu Qing, which made Emperor Chu aware of Concubine Chen Hui's ulterior motives.
Even if you are the emperor, you can't say in front of others: Your wife should take care of it, it's really ugly.
This is not appropriate!
Moreover, Xu Qing never said anything excessive from the beginning to the end, but she wanted to put on a hat of being a monarch.
Do you really think that he is a deaf, blind and blind king who can't tell right from wrong? !
Moreover, the courtier is too useless, how can it be the turn of the harem to speak?
At this time, Eunuch Wei hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Your Majesty, it is better to take the medicine quickly, and don't delay the medicine's effect."
Emperor Chu put aside the displeasure just now, nodded, took the medicine box in Concubine Chen Hui's hand and opened it, and immediately a Medicine Pill with Hunyuan Flowing Light appeared in the box.
Concubine Chen Hui looked at Emperor Chu and said, "Your Majesty, this medicine pill was just refined by Daoist Qian Yuan, and the concubine sent it to His Majesty immediately. Taking it at this time will definitely have the best effect."
Daoist Qianyuan?
The name sounds familiar.
Xu Qing recalled his memories and was shocked instantly. In the Taoist Temple of Chunyang, there is a tablet named Dao Priest Qianyuan, who is the junior of Taoist Priest Chunyang. How can there be another Daoist Priest Qianyuan here? !
Is the name accidentally raised, or is it a bluff? !
Moreover, the Tai Hospital has already calculated that most of the Medicine Pills in the market are fake, and even most of them are chronic poisons!
With the conclusion already drawn, does the Emperor Chu dare to eat it? !
And looking at the dazzling appearance of the Medicine Pill, I am afraid that there is no lack of ginseng and heavy metals.
The whole family is ruthless!
The big brother just drank a bottle of toilet water in the morning, and the little brother is taking heavy metal pills here in the afternoon?
Do you think there are too many numbers in the book of life and death?
So at the moment when Emperor Chu wanted to use the medicine, Xu Qing said, "Your Majesty, no!"
Emperor Chu looked at Xu Qing and asked in confusion, "Why not?"
Xu Qing shook his head and said, "This is not some fairy medicine pill."
Concubine Chen Hui immediately looked at Xu Qing with a sullen face, and said, "Nonsense! Daoist Qianyuan is a famous immortal teacher in the Taoist sect! The junior of Daoist Master Chunyang, a Daoist real man, is the orthodox Taoist! How can he be those fraudulent people in the market?" Comparable?! How dare you slander Daoist Qianyuan like this?!"
Xu Qing glanced at Concubine Chen Hui, it seemed that she was really a counterfeit.
