Chapter 141 Xiao Ziyan’s sadness!
Chapter 141 Xiao Ziyan’s sadness!
"County Magistrate Du, General Xiao, there seems to be a secret passage here!"
"Go down and see!"
Soon, Xiao Qi, Du Yuan and others entered the corridor.
When they saw in front of them, there was a body that had been cut into pieces.
There was also a woman with blood all over her face and body, holding a sharp boning knife in her hand.
They were all startled and instinctively raised their swords and made fighting moves.
"Who are you?"
Xiao Ziyan opened her mouth, but before she could utter a word, she felt dizzy and passed out on the spot.
Seeing this, Li Changsheng quickly held him in his arms.
Xiao Qi saw Li Changsheng and seemed to have thought of something. His expression suddenly became serious and he asked in a trembling voice:
"Li Jianjun, why are you here too?"
"Could she just be..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Changsheng nodded at him.
After receiving a positive answer, Xiao Qi felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
The thing I least wanted to see happened.
Li Changsheng ordered: "Seal the news. No one can reveal a single word about what happened today!"
Xiao Qi and Du Yuan nodded hurriedly.
Li Changsheng took off his coat, put it on Xiao Ziyan, and carried her out of the cellar.
It was learned that the Peach Blossom Thief was the housekeeper of the palace.
Xiao Qi picked up a knife and was about to go and settle the score with them.
However, he was stopped by Li Changsheng.
"General Xiao, they simply misjudged people. Their crimes do not deserve the death penalty."
"Besides, they have already paid a heavy price for this. Stop killing people, lest the situation escalate and cause adverse consequences."
When Xiao Qi heard what Li Changsheng said, he thought it made sense and nodded.
Li Changsheng said, "General Xiao, in two days, we should set off and return to the Divine Capital."
"You can have your brothers prepare first, so that we won't be in a rush when the time comes!"
……
"Ah, no……"
Xiao Ziyan suddenly woke up from her sleep.
There were fine beads of sweat on the white forehead.
When she saw the brightly lit rooms around her, she realized that she had left the devil's cave.
Everything that happened yesterday was simply a nightmare.
but……
Nightmares can wake you up.
But she is no longer innocent and can no longer be completely separated!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel sad again and almost went crazy.
When Lanzhi saw Xiao Ziyan wake up, she hurried over to her.
"Miss Xiao, you're awake!"
Xiao Ziyan asked: "Who are you?"
"My name is Lanzhi, and I'm a palace maid serving Chief Eunuch Li!"
Xiao Ziyan asked, "Steward Li? You mean Li Changsheng? Where is he?"
Lanzhi nodded slightly and replied, "Manager Li should be in the front hall. I'll go and call him over right away!"
Xiao Ziyan shook her head and said, "No, I want to be alone and quiet for a while!"
After saying that, she lay down in the bed again, curling up her delicate body into a ball.
The more she thought about it, the more wronged and sad she felt, and she began to sob quietly.
Lanzhi didn't know how to comfort her, so she told Li Changsheng about this matter.
At this time, Li Changsheng was discussing with Du Yuan about setting up a civilian school.
After hearing what Lanzhi said, Xiao Ziyan had already woken up.
Du Yuan said, "Mr. Li, since Miss Xiao has woken up, should we go over and take a look?"
Li Changsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "No need for now. So many things have happened. Let her calm down first!"
"Lanzhi, go take good care of Miss Xiao and keep an eye on her at all times, understand?"
"okay!"
Lanzhi nodded obediently.
"Lord Li, Miss Xiao is in Yanshi City. Something like this happened. I'm afraid the general won't let it go, right?"
After Lanzhi left, Du Yuan asked with some concern.
It can be seen that he is really afraid of General Xiao Tiangui.
Li Changsheng disagreed.
"I won't let this go, so what?"
"Can he still vent his anger on others just because his own granddaughter was kidnapped by the Peach Blossom Bandit?"
Du Yuan thought about it and said, "Mr. Li is right. As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public."
"As for the Xiao family, they can only swallow their anger and accept it this time!"
"What's more, that Peach Blossom Thief has already been killed by Lord Li. So, the Xiao family still owes Lord Li a favor!"
Li Changsheng was too lazy to care about the Xiao family's affairs. He waved his hand and said:
"County Magistrate Du, I estimate that in two or three days, we will have to return to the capital. When that time comes, everything here will depend on you!"
Du Yuan also knew that this burden was extremely heavy.
With a serious expression, he said solemnly, "I will definitely give it my all and live up to Lord Li's trust!"
Li Changsheng said, "By the way, what are the enlightenment reading materials for children nowadays?"
Although Du Yuan didn't know why Li Changsheng suddenly asked these questions, he still answered them one by one.
"For beginners, the main ones are Cangjie, Shizhuan, and Xunzan!"
"The next level is to read Confucian classics like The Book of Filial Piety, The Analects of Confucius, and The Book of Rites!"
Li Changsheng asked: "Do you have any books for beginners? Let me have a look!"
Du Yuan said, "There is a copy of Cangjie, which my son uses to learn to read."
Li Changsheng casually opened the book "Cangjie".
Everyone was confused.
Is this an enlightenment book?
I think this is a collection of rare characters!
I haven't even read two chapters and I've already seen several unfamiliar characters.
Du Yuan saw Li Changsheng frowning and asked, "Mr. Li, is there any problem with this Cangjie?"
Li Changsheng said: "It's too complicated and not conducive to children's enlightenment!"
Hearing Li Changsheng's somewhat outrageous words, Du Yuan's whole mind was a little confused.
"Mr. Li, be careful with your words. This is the teaching of a sage. It is a classic from ancient times, from when Cangjie created characters, and has been passed down to this day. It must not be slandered!"
Li Changsheng said impatiently, "Don't talk nonsense. When did I ever slander you?"
"I just feel that this Cangjie is too complicated and not conducive to children's enlightenment!"
Du Yuan apologized repeatedly, saying that he was too excited and made some slips of the tongue, but he meant no harm.
Li Changsheng was too lazy to nitpick the words and find out his fault.
"How about this, bring me some pen and ink, and I'll personally write a book for children to learn from, to replace this Cangjie!"
When Du Yuan heard that Li Changsheng disliked the complexity of "Cangjie" and actually wanted to write it himself, he was dumbfounded on the spot.
However, under the tyranny of the military supervisor, he still gritted his teeth and did as he was told.
After getting the pen and ink, Li Changsheng closed his eyes and began to recall the enlightenment books in history.
I don’t know if it’s because of the time travel or the BUFF blessing of the dog system.
All the seemingly certain things in Li Changsheng's previous memories now appeared clearly in his mind.
His first choice was "Three Character Classic".
However, compared to this historical time and space, some of the historical events and characters in it are bugs and must be deleted and modified.
So, Li Changsheng had to settle for the second best and chose "Thousand Character Classic".
This is what he was thinking about, regarding the content of "Thousand Character Classic".
Just like a rolling tide, they all flooded into my mind.
Immediately, he suddenly opened his eyes.
He splashed ink and wrote without adding any punctuation in one go, and the entire text of "Thousand Character Classic", a total of one thousand words, was written on the paper in a flowing manner.
The momentum can be described as, the pen falls and the wind and rain are shaken, and the poem is completed and makes ghosts and gods cry.
Du Yuan walked forward to take a closer look and read aloud in a low voice.
Heaven and earth are dark yellow, the universe is prehistoric.
The sun and the moon are surging, and the stars are listed.
……
Ignorance, ignorance and so on.
The predicate helps, that's why.
After reading this, Du Yuan was already shocked beyond words.
Moreover, he was surprised to find that the whole text was full of vigor and literary talent.
There are exactly one thousand words, and not a single word is repeated.
Suddenly, he felt as if he saw the peerless elegance of Cangjie in creating characters.
Li Changsheng looked at Du Yuan, who was extremely shocked, and asked with great pride:
"County Magistrate Du, what do you think of my Thousand Character Essay? Can it replace Cangjie and become a children's enlightenment reading material?"
Du Yuan did not answer directly, but bowed respectfully to Li Changsheng as a disciple.
"Mr. Li is a great talent. This Thousand Character Essay is not only ingeniously conceived and rich in content, but also has harmonious rhymes, is catchy, and is as plain as words, making it easy to recite and remember."
"If it can be promoted nationwide, it will surely replace Cangjie and become the preferred enlightenment reading material!"
Li Changsheng shook his aching wrist and said, "It takes time for the ice to freeze three feet thick. The same is true for the success of education!"
"First, promote this Thousand Character Classic in the schools of those six demonstration villages. Once you see good results, consider promoting it nationwide!"
Du Yuan bowed and said, "Mr. Li is absolutely right!"
"It is a blessing for Dawu to have such a talented person as Lord Li!"
For Du Yuan, this was by no means a compliment given out of power.
He really thought so from the bottom of his heart.
Du Yuan remembered that among Li Changsheng's four great wishes, one was "to carry on the lost knowledge of the ancient sages."
Now it seems that this is not aimless at all.
Li Changsheng really has this talent.
Although the content of "Thousand Character Classic" is not comparable to the works of sages such as "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Book of Filial Piety",
But it is enough to leave your name in history!
What's more, Li Changsheng is only about twenty years old now.
The future prospects are absolutely limitless.
When he reaches the age of 50, I'm afraid he will really be able to realize his ideal today.
To carry on the unique knowledge of the saints!
Alas, what a pity that the other party is a eunuch!
Otherwise, he would certainly be revered by future generations as a sage comparable to Confucius, Mencius, Laozi and Zhuangzi.
Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably regretful.
Li Changsheng now has no idea that Du Yuan’s imagination is so strong.
Moreover, at this time, he had no intention of carrying on the legacy of the ancient sages.
I was just wondering how to face Xiao Zi Yan in the future?
If the other party knew that I had taken her first blood.
Who knows what crazy things she will do?
Thinking of this, Li Changsheng couldn't help but think of it again.
The peach blossom thief was almost chopped into pieces by her with a sharp boning knife, a bloody scene.
Suddenly, he shuddered involuntarily again.
"County Magistrate Du, Miss Xiao has woken up. I'll go see her!"
Du Yuan hurriedly said, "Mr. Li, do you want me to go with you?"
Li Changsheng waved his hand.
"No, it's already late. It's really not convenient for you to go to a girl's boudoir!"
