Chapter 52 The Prince Has Lost His Mind
Qu Ying was sewing lucky bags and looked at Jiang Yuan from time to time. She talked to her, but she didn't pay much attention and just stared at her for a long time with a frown on her face.
"Hiss, Ouch." Qu Ying cried out softly and put his fingers into his mouth.
Seeing that Jiang Yuan had no reaction at all, Qu Ying said coquettishly, "Ah Yuan, I got pricked."
"Yeah." Jiang Yuan hummed casually.
"A Yuan~" Qu Ying shouted loudly, and Jiang Yuan raised his head with a confused look in his eyes, "What's wrong?"
"What are you looking at?" Qu Ying said, walking to the table angrily and looking at the map. "What's so good about this? Besides, this is an old map, it's all yellowed."
"This was found in the Princess's library."
Qu Ying flipped through the books on the table, all of which were local chronicles and the like. "Why are you looking at these? You have so much time. Have you made new clothes?
Why don’t you sew some lucky bags for New Year’s Eve?”
"I've taken measurements for the clothes. I don't know how to sew. Oh, go and play by yourself and don't bother me."
“What’s so good about this map? If you have time, why don’t you accompany me to the shop and buy some jewelry? Let me tell you, during the Chinese New Year, there are many New Year’s greetings and banquets, but you can’t be outdone.
Also, you have to dress up nicely, you will be a 15-year-old next year, you have to look for a good partner, now it is up to you to get married, you have to arrange these things by yourself, so you should pay attention. "
Jiang Yuan raised his head, frowned and looked at Qu Ying, then took several deep breaths to calm himself down.
Qu Ying couldn't help but take two steps back. For some reason, she felt a little scared, her heart beat faster, and she had a sixth sense that she was going to be beaten today.
"What, what's wrong, did I say something wrong?"
Jiang Yuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and pointed to several places on the map. "Huaibei is protected by mountains and has a superior terrain, which makes it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Relying on the terrain advantage, they often harass the border of Dayu, causing constant wars in Huaibei, and the court is also exhausted from dealing with it.
In southern Anhui, the land is fertile, rice is harvested twice a year, the people are well-fed and well-clothed, the army is strong and the terrain is flat. It is separated from the border of Dayu by a river, only a hundred miles away, and the country has been constantly testing it and has never given up the intention to invade.
In Shu, local forces were dominant and did not take the imperial court seriously at all. Many officials sent there either died unexpectedly or were threatened and bribed by the local forces, which also made the imperial court worried and the people complained bitterly.
The situation inside and outside the country is extremely tense, and you still have the mood to think about how to get married, and compete with those girls for attention, jewelry, and clothes."
Qu Ying was speechless after hearing Jiang Yuan's words. She was a little confused and muttered to herself, "Girls, girls should be dignified and virtuous, and take care of the family. Things on the battlefield are the job of men.
The court is naturally worried about the government, and the ministers, and I, too..." Qu Ying's voice became smaller and smaller, and he became less and less confident, and finally he slowly lowered his head.
Jiang Yuan put down the map in his hand and looked at Qu Ying with a frown.
Qu Ying was a little scared by being looked at, "Why, why, what I said is wrong?"
Jiang Yuan shook his head. It was not that it was wrong. The original owner, including his eldest sister and even his father, all thought so.
Otherwise, the original owner wouldn't have been so focused on getting married, and when she found out that she was deceived by Qin Yunzheng, she would have become devastated, given up struggling, and even gave up her life in the end.
Jiang Yuan laughed at himself, and Qu Ying was even more frightened. He walked to the desk, looked at the map on the table, and the incomprehensible things drawn on the map, "A Yuan..."
"I heard that the eldest princess also went to the battlefield."
Qu Ying nodded.
"It's only been more than 20 years since the founding of the country. The high-spirited princess back then has now settled down in the inner chambers. She has also taught you to be ignorant of worldly affairs. It's only been a generation."
"I don't understand..."
"If the skin is gone, where will the hair be attached? Do you understand this sentence?"
Qu Ying stared at Jiang Yuan in a daze.
"When the lips and teeth are gone, they are interdependent. Don't you understand?"
"clear."
Jiang Yuan stood up, gently pulled out a golden hairpin from Qu Ying's head, and placed it in Qu Ying's hand, "If Dayu is gone, these things will be of no use at all.
When the enemy attacks you, they will not show mercy to you just because of how you are dressed or whether you are gentle and virtuous.
On the contrary, at that time, you would wish you had a knife with you, or even a sharper hairpin, so that at least you could end your life and suffer less humiliation.
Not only does resistance require ability, sometimes, taking one's own life also requires ability."
Qu Ying held the hairpin and nodded blankly.
In the eldest princess' study, she was in a daze. This was her reaction to what the secret guard had just told her.
Sitting motionless, with empty eyes.
Those days of swords and guns clashing, flesh and blood flying, and the bloody days on the battlefield flashed before her eyes frame by frame, scene by scene, and made her feel like they were something from her previous life. It had only been twenty years, but she had completely forgotten about it.
When she just got married, she was still full of ambition and was pregnant. When the Marquis was ordered to go to war, she took her red tasseled spear and was ready to mount the horse and follow him.
Later, why did it change?
The eldest daughter is very much like her, and even more like the Marquis. She is obviously very proud of herself, but later on she feels that it is not good for girls to wield swords and guns, and she is determined to train Lingling and Shuer to be ladies from a noble family.
But she herself grew up on a horse farm and a training ground, and she wielded a red tasseled spear with great skill.
Qu Ying left Jiang Yuan's yard in a trance and walked to her mother's yard unknowingly. Through the window, she saw her mother holding a red tasseled spear in a daze.
Chunzhi came in with a plate of fried plums and closed the door stealthily, "Girl."
"what."
"Girl, is my hairpin ready?"
Jiang Yuan glanced at her, remembered what she said, and said, "Oh, no."
Chunzhi frowned immediately and pouted unhappily, "Girl, it's been so long, I've been waiting eagerly."
"You don't know how to use it, why are you in such a hurry?"
"If I don't know how to use it, I can learn it. Girl, you promised me, you can't break your promise."
Listening to Xiao Chunzhi's coquettishness, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but nodded and agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll speed up and make sure it's done for you before the New Year."
"Thank you, young lady. Oh, by the way, I went out to do some shopping today and heard a rumor that the Prince of Jin was ill."
"Is he sick? What kind of illness? Wasn't he suffering from nightmares before? He hasn't been cured yet. What a waste."
"No, no, I heard he was insane. He was fine when he slept at night, but when he woke up during the day, he always said there were dead bodies on the ground and that he wanted to strangle him.
But there was clearly nothing, and the princess and the prince were so frightened that they asked the emperor for permission to invite all the doctors in the palace."
"Cure?"
"No, I heard that the prince and princess are looking for famous doctors among the people. It seems that the imperial doctors in the palace can't do anything." Chunzhi said, shaking her head proudly. It would be better if she went crazy, but she didn't feel relieved enough.
Jiang Yuan held a pen in his hand, looking at the map, with a raised corner of his mouth. Crazy? Not bad.
