In the 47th year of King Qin Zhaoxiang's reign, the Changping War broke out between Qin and Zhao due to the struggle for Shangdang.

The Battle of Changping lasted for five months, and Zhao Jun was finally defeated.

In this battle, Bai Qi, the leader of the Qin army, had his troops beheaded and killed 45 of Zhao's surrendered troops.

Bai Qi raised his head and recalled the war. There was no nostalgia in his expression, but only regret.

“You can’t release it, but you can’t release it, and you can’t close it, so how do you think you should make a decision?”

"Destroy our army's supplies and waste our troops transporting them back to the capital?"

He turned to look at the young man with a face full of compassion: "Posterity people say that I am a murderous person, saying that I massacred in the Battle of Changping to vent my anger. I am the Lord of Wu'an, and I should have used Wu to secure the country. Zhao is located in four wars. The land is surrounded by strong enemies and the people are fierce. Every time they collided with the Zhao army, they fought fiercely."

"I have seen the rapid depletion of our army. They are all sergeants of our Great Qin... When the Zhao army surrendered, they had been without food for several months. If the prisoners are taken at the expense of our army's interests, then Great Qin will unify Liuhe. His footsteps were broken. How could I let the dead soldiers sacrifice themselves in vain?"

"During the Battle of Changping, I was already over sixty years old. I didn't have much time left. I must wipe out Zhao, one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, for Great Qin during my lifetime."

"What determines the fate of more than 40 Zhao people is not me, Bai Qi, but the general trend of world unification."

"People from Zhao can say I'm cruel, people from Qin can say I'm murderous, but you can't."

"You have no position and no qualifications to question me."

"Because you are all the beneficiaries of the unification of the world."

"You can travel around with your identity documents, go to Jiangnan, central Guizhou, Hebei, Lingnan, and do whatever you want, because wherever the carriages and horses pass, it is your own homeland."

Li Yuanjing was stunned. He was born in the era of the unification of the Central Plains. The Tang army was targeting rebels and foreign countries with their swords.

He studied the art of war and practiced martial arts, but he never really thought about the meaning behind war.

Bai Qi stroked his beard and said gently: "Don't blame any of the soldiers who shed blood, sweat, or even gave their lives on the road to reunification. This is the first lesson I will teach you."

"Waging a war is not just about winning. How to obtain the greatest results at the smallest cost is a lifelong problem for an army commander. War must involve killing, and heroes do not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. History will remember those people."

Li Yuanjing looked at him quietly, and then spoke for a long time: "The general fought for the great cause of unification, and I will bear in mind today's teachings. But it has been more than 800 years since Qin unified Liuhe. The situation has changed, and our descendants will inevitably come out of it. A new path to pioneer.”

"If one day, the Tang army needs to face the problems faced by the general, we will definitely have a better choice."

"Sufficient food and grass to save people in danger, a military force so strong that even the tiger can return to its mountain range, and the other party does not dare to come back, and a court with a harmonious relationship between the ruler and his ministers and a clear government."

"There must be."

Bai Qi suppressed his smile, pressed the long sword on his waist, opened his stance, and slashed at Li Yuanjing with one sword.

Li Yuanjing seemed to be able to feel the magnificent sword energy and hurriedly dodged back.

Bai Qi turned around and sheathed his sword, suddenly laughing loudly: "Boy, practice hard!"

“Behind the lofty and great aspirations are practical and down-to-earth methods.”

"I...will watch you. I hope everything you said can...come true."

The illusion was shattered, and Li Yuanjing came to his senses.

He opened his eyes and found that the little baby, who had been sleeping happily just now, was holding his arms and looking at him with a little pout.

Yuan Yuan spent her last bit of money in order to create an idol meeting for him, and she will be an ordinary pauper baby from now on! ! !

It’s time to study hard and earn some money again! ! !

The cub that has been wandering around for several days is extremely sad. She has really sacrificed so much for her good friend! ! !

Li Yuanjing didn't know why, and thought it was because he didn't play with her when she fell asleep, so he poured her another bowl of water and asked in a warm voice, "Do you want to drink it?"

Yuan Yuan snorted: "I want to eat Hu pancakes, mutton, and glutinous rice balls!!!"

Li Yuanjing nodded: "Okay, the store will not be closed tonight, I will send someone to buy it. But what are these glutinous rice balls?"

Yuan Yuan opened her eyes wide: "The glutinous rice balls made by my sister are delicious!!!"

The little guy's face was full of "You are so ignorant."

King Zhao: "..."

When the sky dawned, the excitement outside also ended, and the young men came back with a pile of trophies.

The chef of Zhaixinglou has already cooked the glutinous rice balls and brought them upstairs bowl by bowl.

King Zhao sent someone to order a table of dishes from Sifanglou and send it to the Yuan family. In exchange for the Yuan family's glutinous rice balls, he also bought mutton soup, Hu cakes and other food, just in time for everyone to finish eating and go back to catch up on their sleep.

Changsun Chong came back first and said to Yuan Yuan with a smile: "Your eldest brother won the first place in the lantern riddle competition and won you a glazed horse lantern. You can see it when you go home later."

Yuan Yuan nodded very calmly: "My eldest brother is so awesome!"

However, the calves under the table were swinging excitedly, revealing her mood.

Changsun Chong fed a glutinous rice ball into his mouth and said maliciously: "After the Lantern Festival, there will be a college competition. Your eldest brother will definitely be the representative of Taixue. You are a student of Hongwen Hall. Who do you want to support?"

The biscuits in Yuan Yuan's mouth no longer tasted good, and she felt uncomfortable at the thought of being on the opposite side of her eldest brother.

Changsun Chong saw that the little boy was almost crying and regretted teasing her. Just when he was about to come back, the little guy let out a big sigh.

"Brother Zhangsun, let's play together in the next life!!!"

Changsun Chong:? ? ?

"Where did you hear this... No, are you going to abandon me for your eldest brother???"

Yuan Yuan said mysteriously: "It was my uncle who said that he wanted to live with my uncle in the next life..."

Changsun Chong quickly covered her mouth with his eyes and hands: "Oh, my ancestor... you are not allowed to tell others about your family affairs in the future, do you understand?"

Yuan Yuan nodded obediently.

At this time, the prince also came back. He looked around and frowned: "Where are Qing Que and Ke'er?"

The young gentlemen who were eating in the private room all put down their tableware.

Cheng Chuliang, the second son of Duke Su, said: "King Wei and I went down to watch the opera together, but after watching for a while, something happened to him suddenly, so he left with his guards."

Yuchi Baoqi's younger brother Yuchihuan said: "I met the King of Han at Chengtianmen Street. He and Li Chongyi were eating noodle soup at the same table. I left after seeing Li Chongyi, and I haven't seen him since."

Li Chongyi is the son of Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, and he is not present at this time.

King Zhao thought for a while: "Maybe he has returned to the palace. If something happens, the Jinwu Guards will definitely come to report it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the chamberlain of the East Palace came in.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has summoned you, His Royal Highness King Zhao, and the second wife of the Yuan family to come to the palace to see you."

Yuan Yuan, who was listening to everyone's conversation with his little ears, had a mouthful of biscuits stuck in his throat and beat his heart anxiously.
