After dinner, Feng Erbi led Sun Jingwen to the east courtyard.

After the little girl washed and washed, she changed into a lotus-colored jacket and skirt. She has a delicate and elegant appearance, and a quiet and tough temperament, which makes people feel good when they see it.

She bowed gracefully.

Lou Yu waved to her and motioned her to sit down with a gentle and amiable expression.

"You draw very well, and you have done me a great favor. If you want anything, just say it."

Sun Jingwen shook her head resolutely, "Your Highness, I didn't draw the picture alone. Without Xiao Jiu and the others to accompany me, I couldn't do it alone. Moreover, His Highness kindly took us in, let us eat and clothe us warmly, we should do things for His Highness .”

Lou Yu thought for a while and asked, "What if I let you continue studying?"

When we met for the first time, Yang Guanghuai asked if he could let his students continue to study.At that time, the court was in the dark, and Lou Yu could not act rashly, so he refused to agree.

Now that Guo Lian is under his restraint and his eyes and ears are removed, he doesn't have to worry too much about his actions.

Sun Jingwen's eyes showed surprise: "Your Highness, can we really continue to study?!"

"Well, I will discuss this matter with Mr. Yang."

Sun Jingwen's eyes were slightly red, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

After saying that, he wanted to kneel down and kowtow.

Lou Yu wanted to help her, but thinking about the difference between men and women in ancient times, he turned his body sideways to accept the gift, and said, "There is no need to do this big gift, I need you to continue to draw pictures for me, are you willing?"

Sun Jingwen nodded again and again, "Yes!"

"What if I want you to teach others how to draw pictures?"

Dasheng has a vast territory, and there are countless places that need to be surveyed, mapped and described, and it is unrealistic for Sun Jingwen alone.

He wants to cultivate a professional team. Although there is no place to use it for the time being, it is not a bad thing to plan ahead.

The importance of maps in the military field is beyond doubt.

It's just that craftsmen in ancient times often cherished themselves with their brooms, and it was extremely rare to give lectures. I don't know if Sun Jingwen is willing.

Unexpectedly, Sun Jingwen was even more enthusiastic than him: "Your Highness, I am willing! When drawing the map of Gyeongju City, Xiao Jiu and the others have been with me and helped me a lot. Can I teach them?"

The team leader chooses the assistants that are convenient for him, of course it is okay!

Lou Yu had no reason to refuse.

However, Sun Jingwen drew pictures only by intuition, without systematic study. Although the pictures produced are amazing, they are far inferior to modern blueprints.

Lou Yu combined modern maps to conduct academic discussions with Sun Jingwen, which aroused Sun Jingwen's amazement and brilliance.

She is intelligent by nature, and she understands everything. Lou Yu only roughly described the basic rules of modern maps, and Sun Jingwen has already learned by analogy, which is more transparent than Lou Yu, a modern person.

Lou Yu was slightly shocked.

Forget it, he has a specialization in art, and he hasn't learned how to draw maps, so it's not bad if he can remember a little bit.

The academic discussion is over, and it is almost Hai hour (nine o'clock in the evening).

Lou Yu instructed Feng Erbi: "Ms. Sun will go to the salt field tomorrow, and she will live in the mansion tonight. You arrange for her to go to Huangyuan to be with Mrs. Huo."

Now Huo Yan doesn't need guards, only three members of the Huo family and Yang Ji'an live in the deserted courtyard.

Huo Qiong is a little girl with a bedroom alone.Sun Jingwen is only one or two years older than her, and the two of them can sleep in one bed, which is more than enough to avoid having to buy a new hospital.

Feng Erbi was about to lead people down, but Lou Yu said, "Wait, I'll go there myself."

After Huo Xuan and Huo Qiong came, he hadn't met formally yet. Coincidentally, he still had some things he wanted to ask Huo Yan.

There was no light in the deserted courtyard, and Huo Yan was dictating books, teaching Huo Xuan and Huo Qiong to read.

After the family was broken and the family died, the three of them were able to meet in Gyeongju, how lucky they are.

Huo Yan backtracked: "Those who enjoy the joy of the people, the people also enjoy it; those who worry about the worries of the people, the people also worry about their worries."

Huo Qiong followed obediently.

Huo Xuan, on the other hand, deliberately asked, "Uncle, what do you mean by this sentence?"

Huo Yan explained patiently.

"This sentence is meaningless, I don't learn it."

Although Huo Xuan is young, he has a clear heart.

He was originally the carefree grandson of Huo's family, but once he lost his relatives and became a slave, he and his sister suffered countless humiliations.

If it wasn't for the people from Prince Qing's Mansion to find him, he and his sister are still struggling to survive in the quagmire.

He has no idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor, so he can hate the emperor and the court without any burden.

The only thing he was grateful for was Prince Qing's Mansion.But Prince Qing's Mansion is also a royal family, and he still doesn't believe it deep in his heart.

Huo Yan's eyes were heavy: "Why don't you learn?"

Huo Xuan poked his neck and said: "Uncle, who really did this sentence? Who really cares about the common people? Since it's useless, why should I learn it?"

Huo Yan was silent.

He knows better than Huo Xuan that today's Dasheng government is corrupt and chaotic, the emperor is fatuous, the officials are heartless, no one cares what the people are like.

The barbarians in the north are showing off their power and no one cares about them, and the people in the snow disaster have no one to appease them.

Really ironic.

But at this time Huo Xuan said again: "Uncle, you might as well teach me that the emperor is not benevolent and will not protect the world; princes are not benevolent and will not protect the country; Qing...②"

"Shut up!" Huo Yan scolded in a low voice, "Who taught you this?"

Huo Xuan was in awe of his uncle, and lowered his head and asked, "These two sentences are published in the same book, why can I learn that sentence and not this one?"

"Don't think I don't know what's on your mind." Huo Yan saw through his little Jiujiu at a glance, "Misfortune comes from your mouth, do you understand?"

"Humph!"

Huo Xuan turned his head and muttered: "Coward."

Huo Yan's eyebrows twitched. This bastard has always been stubborn. He thought that he would restrain himself after suffering, but he didn't expect it to remain the same.

Just as he was about to teach a few words, someone knocked on the courtyard door.

It's so late, who's here?

Huo Yan asked the two children to stay in the house, and came to the courtyard gate in the dark.

"Who?"

"Huo Yan, open the door, Your Highness is coming."

It was Feng Erbi's voice.

Huo Yan opened the door, facing Lou Yu directly.

Feng Erbi stood sideways holding a lantern. Under the brilliant candlelight, the son's face was beautiful and radiant. Outside the dark courtyard, the bright light shone brightly, which was shockingly dazzling.

"Miss Sun will come with you tomorrow, and will stay in the mansion tonight. But it's already late at night, so I don't have to work for the servants to tidy up the new house, so I will let her live in the same room with Miss Huo."

This is a notification, not an inquiry.

Huo Yan has no room to refuse, of course, he doesn't need to refuse, this is a trivial matter in the first place.

And Huo Qiong, a little girl, is indeed a bit lonely.

As expected, when Lou Yu led Sun Jingwen to explain to Huo Qiong the intention of coming, the little girl's eyes suddenly showed surprise.

She looked at Sun Jingwen and smiled, and Sun Jingwen responded with the same smile.

But after meeting each other, the two little girls entered the room arm in arm.

Yang Ji'an was awakened by the movement in the courtyard. He ran over in his coat and was overjoyed to see Lou Yu.

"Your Highness, you are here!"

Seeing the child's sleepy eyes, Lou Yu couldn't help laughing and asked, "Did it wake you up?"

"No, no, I wasn't asleep." He waved his hands again and again, for fear that Lou Yu would let him go back to sleep.

Huo Xuan stared at Lou Yu with wide eyes.

The first time he saw Lou Yu, Lou Yu was scolding the servant angrily, his majesty was no less than that of his younger uncle, when he first saw him, he couldn't help but feel apprehensive.

The child's eyes were black and white, bright and penetrating. Lou Yu liked it very much, and said with a gentle expression, "What are you doing with your uncle when you stay up so late?"

Huo Xuan said honestly: "Endorsement."

Lou Yu admired him from the bottom of his heart.

When he came in, the yard was dark and dimly lit. Unexpectedly, the three members of the Huo family were studying and studying in the darkness. How hardworking and diligent they were!

As soon as his heart softened, he asked, "Do you want to continue studying?"

Unexpectedly, Huo Xuan shook his head severely: "I don't want to!"

Lou Yu was surprised: "Why?"

"Reading is useless!" the child said solemnly, "I want to practice martial arts more!"

Lou Yu found it very interesting, and continued to ask: "What do you do in martial arts? It's so hard."

"Practicing martial arts can beat bad people!" Huo Xuan said angrily, "If you read too much, you will become a bad person!"

This fallacy directly made Lou Yu laugh.

Huo Yan pinched the back of the child's neck and threatened: "Don't talk nonsense."

Huo Xuan struggled desperately to break free, and glared at Huo Yan. Seeing that Lou Yu was smiling, he was no longer afraid: "What are you laughing at?"

Lou Yu's eyes were slightly curved, and in the warm halo of candlelight, his brows became clearer.

"There is a saying in the art of war. If you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. If you don't study, you don't know the opponent's weaknesses, but if you are both civil and military, you will be strong and unstoppable. You come from a general, don't you even understand this?"

Huo Xuan: "..."

It makes sense, he can't refute it!

In his haste, he was quick-witted: "You put it lightly, now I am a slave, I can't go to school, and I can't afford Mr. Xixi."

"There is a master in the house, you can go to ask for advice and study tomorrow, and bring your sister with you." Lou Yu saw through his little thoughts and deliberately teased him.

Huo Xuan: "..."

He had no choice but to ask Huo Yan for help, with "I don't want to study" written in his eyes.

Huo Yan bowed decisively: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Huo Xuan suddenly had no love in his life.

Yang Ji'an joked on the side: "Don't worry, Master is not strict in class, really, I won't lie to you."

After teasing Huo Xuan, Lou Yu got down to business.

"I'm going to the saltworks, mainly to produce salt. But in the meantime, I need you to take the opportunity to find out the hidden guards of the saltworks."

Salt farms are usually guarded by soldiers, and Lou Yu doesn't understand ancient military affairs, so he probably doesn't understand the secrets of defense.Li Shu is an adult, the target is too conspicuous, and it is not suitable for detection.

Currently only Huo Yan is the most suitable.

Huo Yan nodded and said, "Yes."

Now that he has promised to work for Lou Yu, he will not break his promise.

He was born in a noble family and has some insight into the situation.What Lou Yu did seems to be far-fetched, but in reality his intentions are huge.

If his intuition comes true, maybe Qingzhou can become the new outlet for the Huo family.

"Your Highness, I can help too!" Yang Ji'an recommended himself.

Lou Yu smiled and said, "Do you understand military defense?"

Yang Ji'an is very confident: "I can learn!"

Lou Yu looked at Huo Yan, Huo Yan was noncommittal.

In the original book, Huo Yan and Yang Ji'an were both teachers and friends, and Lou Yu did not intend to "break up" them.

Why not do it with one more elite general?

"You have to ask Huo Yan about this." He didn't directly become Huo Yan's master.

In the early morning of the next day, Lou Yu finished his preparations, and under the reluctance of Princess Qing, he led [-] government soldiers and several carts of food and utensils to the salt field in the east of the city.

At that time, the east was about to dawn, and the sun was shining brightly.

The author has something to say:

Yu Zai: (with arrogance) Subdue Huo Yan and use it for me!

Huo Zai: (Thinking deeply) Gyeongju may be a way out for the Huo family...

Author: (Gougou is haunted) Whoever is on top loses.
