Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

May is an evil month, and the sun is full of the viciousness of newborn insects; what Liu Bei brings is his own soldiers, and the weapons are soaked with the indifference that has been battle-tested.Threats from nature and man-made are superimposed on each other, weaving into a giant net, faintly oppressing the Xuxian Academy, a palace of knowledge that was just born.

It's just that all the threats disappeared the moment he met that person.

"An." Ah Sheng smiled slightly, "I heard that there are scholars giving lectures today?"

Cai Yong almost trotted towards her: "Exactly. In the third lottery draw before noon today, Zheng Diao was drawn. He is a fourth-class student of the Fa School."

"Yeah." Ah Sheng nodded, followed Cai Yong's pace, walked to the mat closest to the gate and sat down, "Is it my fault for disturbing you? Go ahead, don't worry about me." It seemed that it was her who suddenly It seemed that Zheng Zui's lecture was interrupted only when he appeared.

"Oh, ah?" Old Mr. Cai was at a loss.

Ah Sheng's black and white eyes were bent, and there was a calmness like a mountain inside.

"Oh——" Cai Yong finally came to his senses: What the hell is Liu Bei doing outside the door?No one stipulated that he must give Liu Bei an answer immediately.It was supposed to be the time for the "Luming Terrace to Lecture", but it turned out to be the time for the academy to sacrifice wine and argue with the prefect. Instead, the speaker was begging for mercy on stage, so what is the dignity of "Luming Terrace"?Where is the dignity of academics?

Cai Yong slapped himself hard on the forehead, then waved his big sleeves, and announced: "Today, due to the successive visits of Liu Taishou and Zhonghua Gong, the order of the lectures was chaotic, and Zheng Sheng was delayed. I will compensate you for two minutes. Zhong, the show will end at a quarter past noon. Zheng Sheng, what do you think?"

Zheng Tuo's mind had been turned into tofu by the repeatedly changing situation, he got up from the steps in a daze, and said hello in a daze.

Cai Yong let out a long breath: "Since that's the case, let's continue. Zheng Sheng has just finished a round of lectures, do you have anything to refute?"

With the current scale of the Academy, there are not a few cultural people who respond quickly.Immediately, a student of the Guliang School of Confucianism raised his arms and shouted: "I will come first. Dare I ask Zheng Sheng, if having a son is wrong for the country, why would Qi Huan and Goujian encourage birth and dominate the world? (Note [1])"

Zheng Tuo had been asked many times about similar questions when he was sitting on the bench.If he could be easily questioned, he wouldn't be a famous madman. "Qi and Yue dominate the world with one country, and they use military force to exhaust the whole country. Even if childbirth is encouraged, it is a blessing for a man to leave a son and a half daughter before he dies in battle. Where is the hidden danger of hundreds of sons and grandchildren?"

"In that case..."

In this way, the off-track discussion became heated again, and the words on and off the stage were excited, as if the sword had never happened.The soldiers looked at each other outside, neither advancing nor retreating.Zhang Fei was uneasy, and walked up to Liu Bei: "Brother?"

Liu Bei knew that there was nothing he could do today, and he seemed to have annoyed Cao Sheng. He had never seen her act like this before. "How arrogant..." He sighed softly.However, the interjection had just started, and a guard in black came over to deliver a message.

"Prefect Liu, General Zhang. My lord asked if the two of you are also here to listen to the lecture, and she left some notes for you."

Well, the hard steps are coming forward.

Liu Bei looked at the bewildered soldiers, and forced a smile: "Since Mr. Zhonghua is here to invite you, let's go. It's just me soldiers... look, general..."

"Everyone is also loyal to their duties and has worked hard for a trip." The black-clothed guard was neither overbearing nor humble, "My lord ordered the concierge of the Xuegong to prepare herbal tea for you to relieve the heat. Today's Dragon Boat Festival, we will distribute bean dumplings later, everyone will have a share. "

"Huh—" The big guys let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Liu Bei eagerly.Some people even commented in a low voice: "If there is any misunderstanding, it will be fine if the lord and Duke Zhonghua talk about it."

Liu Bei: ... "You guys go." Angry to the point of liver pain, a group of simple-minded reckless people, hurry up and go away.Whenever this happens, he laments the lack of people under his command.Lack of advisers.The kind that has high political sensitivity and can cooperate with him.Fighting alone and meeting monsters like the Cao brothers is really a short life.

But now, Liu Bei still has to cheer up to meet the person who made him lose his life.

Cao Sheng is older than him, 37 years old this year.She is well-maintained, at first glance she still looks like she is in her 20s, but all the baby fat on her cheeks has been shaved off, compared to the kindness when she first met, she is more beautiful and aggressive, and Liu Bei even gave birth to a child A feeling of not daring to look directly.

"Duke Zhonghua..." Liu Bei moved his hands alternately in front of him and bowed deeply.

Across the two small tables, the woman smiled back and made a silent gesture.Liu Bei had no choice but to shut up, and followed her gaze to look at Lu Mingtai who was arguing fiercely.

Those who questioned Zheng Zuo went on and on, from history to morality, from debating school to practical school.For example, the medical student who is talking now: "Does Zheng Sheng know how many people died in the two major epidemics during the reign of Emperor Huan? Giving birth to 25 grandchildren is just your imagination. How many small farmers can do it in reality? I am a student of plague prevention and control. I was taught a sentence on the first day of entry. Today I gave it to Zheng Sheng: put aside The statistics say that the population is all hooligans."

Hearing this, Ah Sheng let out a chuckle.

Zhang Fei curled his lips in disdain: "It's just a fallacy. I can shut him up with my fist. How can I use Duke Zhonghua's disciple?"

"Get some dried fruit and meat for General Zhang to relieve boredom." The woman in Tsing Yi turned her head and ordered the guards, and then faced Liu Bei, "I have been ignoring common affairs for more than three months. This time I saw the prefect Liu, and I realized that you have been wronged."

The king who destroyed the Yuan family, anyone with a little bit of ability and ambition, went to fight Yuan Shu. Only Liu Bei was forced to stay in the rear by the post of prefect of Yingchuan.What's more, Guan Yu was taken to the front line by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's restraint made Liu Bei feel uncomfortable.Run, brother is still in the hands of others; stay obediently, but not reconciled.

The word "grievance" can speak to people's hearts, and Zhang Fei's eyes became hot when he heard it: "It's still Zhonghua Gong's reason."

Tears welled up in Liu Bei's eyes, and he looked so moved: "Zhonghua, I feel depressed..."

"I'm the host at noon today. It just so happens that a batch of spices came from the south, and I would like Xuande to taste them together." After saying this promise, she stopped talking and concentrated on listening to the debate on the stage.The debate between pros and cons is gradually coming to an end.Zheng Zuo had already set up a flag, saying that he would go to a census and fight again in a few years; the scholars on the opposing side rejoiced and elated, as if they had won a big victory.However, in private, some people still murmured in their hearts. If there is no war or plague in a peaceful year, do they have to control the population?Less land and more people is indeed a problem.

Cai Yong, who was wearing an official uniform for sacrificial wine, held a brush and a bamboo board, and walked respectfully to A Sheng's seat. "Today's third session is over. Does Mr. Zhonghua have any comments on Zheng Sheng's theory?"

All of a sudden, the students who had been sad and happy just now all restrained their expressions and turned their ears in this direction to listen.

Ah Sheng stood up and greeted his surroundings first. His thin figure was shrouded in the sunlight approaching noon, so white that it was unrealistically white. "If I deny it, I can't turn the truth into a fallacy; if I admit it, I can't turn the fallacy into the truth. Removing the false while keeping the truth, seeking common ground while reserving differences, is the thinking and communication of the kings, not my own words. What I can do for you, " She paused and looked around, "When I asked Mr. Cai to serve as the sacrificial wine, I promised him that in the academy, I would not be punished for my words. I reiterate this statement today, and encourage you all."

The crowd was confused, the crowd was silent, the crowd burst into cheers.

Only then did Zheng Yi realize what a cruel fate he had escaped just now.He quickly ran down the Luming Terrace, kowtowed in the direction of Ah Sheng, his smile was covered with tears.

Liu Bei closed his eyes, laughed along with the crowd, and smiled wryly.He seemed to have played an assist and helped Cao Sheng push his reputation to a new peak.But what could he do?The oppressive feeling of the smiling woman standing under the scorching May sun was so strong that since she appeared, the situation has completely deviated from control.

Fate is always harsh on him, Liu Bei, this is reality.Fortunately, God didn't leave him no chance at all.There was another incense tasting meeting at noon, and the prefect of Yingchuan lost face. Even Cao Sheng had to make up for it.
