Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao doesn't want to be a widow anymore

Chapter 274 Divination
Sun An is not that idle. He keeps an eye on Huang Ji all day long and wants to cause trouble for him.

Now she has more important things to pay attention to. After Uncle Huang and Huang Yaoyu were sent to the military camp, He Qi was not idle either. Lu Xun brought some people and followed Uncle Huang to explore the route and terrain twice. Sun An insisted on going with them.

"When my father and brother go to war, they always lead the troops in every battle. Although I am a woman, I also know this truth. Sister-in-law, please agree to it!" Sun An hugged Qiao Wei's arm and shook it, with undisguised desire in his eyes.

Qiao Wei did not answer her immediately, but asked in a pointed way, "Do you still remember that you are engaged?"

"Even though we have an engagement, it can't stop me from wanting to share my brother's worries!" Sun An felt a little aggrieved, "My brother promised me to General Zhao, am I not also sharing his worries and winning his heart?

I don’t know if I can still go to the battlefield after marriage, and I don’t know if General Zhao is a pedantic person who won’t allow me to wield a sword or a gun and go to the battlefield with him. I really can’t learn needlework and makeup, so how can I be gentle and respectful. ”

Sun An looked at the thin calluses on her hands. When she was little, her uncle allowed her to dress like a boy and learn martial arts with Brother Fen.

She had never thought about getting married before. She followed her aunt's example and cooked for her family, hoping to realize her dream of becoming a female general. But she didn't know if she could realize it in this lifetime.

"Others may not understand me, but my sister-in-law must understand me, right?" Sun An looked up at Qiao Wei. "My sister-in-law brought me out, isn't she also teaching me not to be just a woman trapped in the backyard, and not to indulge in the love affairs of husband and wife. In addition, there are many things to do.

Just like what my sister-in-law is doing now, it is to pave the way for the Sun family to fight for the world, and also to pave the way for Deng'er's future. "

Qiao Wei didn't expect Sun An to say such a thing. She looked a little more happy and said, "I underestimated you."

When Sun An heard Qiao Wei praising her, a smug look immediately appeared on her face, "That's right, I'm no longer the silly Sun An who would listen to other people's lies. I've become much smarter now.

So...sister-in-law, just let me go!"

Qiao Wei finally couldn't bear her nagging anymore and agreed to her request, "I'll let You Yu go with you, and you must bring a few Jin'an soldiers with you as well."

Sun An agreed readily.

"No matter what happens, keeping yourself safe is the most important thing." Qiao Wei reminded again and again.

Sun An agreed readily and ran out happily.

She looked at Sun An's back and murmured softly, "I hope I'm overthinking."

Half a month later, He Qi, Lu Xun, Ding Feng and Lu Meng led their teams separately into the Baishi Mountains, trying to kill Pan Lin.

This battle lasted for nearly half a month. He Qi and Lu Xun besieged the mountain and cut off the communication between the top and bottom of the mountain.

But this is far from enough. The mountain people have stored food in the mountains, and simply besieging them will not be enough.

Qiao Wei stood on the top of the mountain, feeling very uneasy. She found Wu Fan and asked, "Can you please tell me whether we can win this battle?"

Wu Fan looked up at the sky and said, "Three days from now, at the hour of Chen, the wind will blow. We can use fire to defeat the enemy. If we miss this hour, we will not be able to defeat the enemy."

Qiao Wei looked at the green mountains and said, "But wildfires are hard to put out, and they will inevitably implicate innocent people."

"After the wind starts blowing for an hour, there will be heavy rain, which can put out the forest fire." Wu Fan pointed to the clouds in the distance, "Look, that's the cloud. Madam, if you trust me, you can win.

If you miss this moment, you will have to wait another three years." Qiao Wei looked in the direction Wu Fan pointed. The sky was cloudless, so she didn't see any clouds.

Qiao Wei did not hesitate and wrote a letter to He Qi immediately.

Although it is said that if you doubt a person, don't employ him, and if you employ a person, don't doubt him, but Qiao Wei didn't fully understand Wu Fan's background. He was not sure how accurate his divination was.

Three days later, she took Wu Fan and stood on the top of the hill, waiting for the wind he mentioned.

It was the first time that Wu Fan saw Qiao Wei’s nervous expression. She tightly clenched the handkerchief in her hand and stared at the windmill in Sun Deng’s hand.

"Madam, if you don't trust me, why bother writing that letter?" This time Wu Fan looked like nothing had happened, peacefully enjoying the freshly brewed tea in the teacup.

"If the storm doesn't blow up this time, the most I'll lose is my prestige, but you'll be in trouble. I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your head."

Because of the incident between Sun Ce and Old Lady Wu, Sun Quan was very averse to those who sought fame and reputation through alchemy. If Wu Fan's calculations were inaccurate, Sun Quan would regard him as an alchemist who was playing tricks. If He Qi's attack failed, all the blame would be put on Wu Fan.

Qiao Wei didn't dare to say whether he could save his life.

"Even I am not afraid of this matter, why does Madam seem to care about it?" Wu Fan had a faint smile on his face, "Or maybe Madam is actually worried about more than just this matter."

Qiao Wei was intrigued by this, "What do you think I'm worried about, sir?"

"Madam's heart is as deep as the sea, and I can't guess it. But in Madam, I see the shadow of a person."

"Who?"

Wu Fan said, "Empress Hexi."

Empress Hexi Deng Sui was the second empress of Emperor He of the Eastern Han Dynasty. She ruled the country for sixteen years in the name of "female monarch". During her reign, a meteorite impact occurred, and various tribes took the opportunity to invade, putting the Eastern Han Dynasty in danger.

As a woman, Empress Hexi implemented a series of reforms to revive the economy, promote science and technology education, and develop the south of the Yangtze River by immigration. She led the Eastern Han Dynasty to overcome the worst ten years of natural disasters in its history.

He even sent troops to conquer foreign threats such as the Southern Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan, wipe out pirates, and pacify the Western Qiang, thus saving the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was in crisis.

Empress Hexi was proficient in astronomy and mathematics. She encouraged Cai Lun to improve the papermaking technique, Zhang Heng to develop the armillary sphere, seismometer and other instruments, presided over the forging of the Zhongshangfang crossbow, founded the earliest co-educational school in history, provided school education for girls, and even encouraged women to participate in politics. She also ordered Xu Shen and others to go to the Eastern Palace to correct characters, and promoted the publication of the world's first dictionary "Shuowen Jiezi". Later Su Che called it "the prosperous Eastern Han Dynasty under Hexi".

Such an Empress Deng had the character of her husband, but also had the foresight that her husband did not have.

"Who dares and who is worthy to compete with Empress Deng?" Qiao Wei whispered, "If I can achieve even one tenth of Empress Deng's achievements in my lifetime, it would be considered 'achieving enlightenment in the morning and dying in the evening is fine'."

Wu Fan smiled and said nothing more. Instead, he pointed at the windmill in Sun Deng's hand and said, "Madam, the wind is blowing!"

Qiao Wei looked back and saw the windmill in Sun Deng's hand turning slowly.

Xu Yao Niang held Sun Deng's hand and muttered something. The blades of the windmill actually began to turn slowly, and clouds in the sky really began to approach slowly.

Wu Fan stood up and said, "It seems that my head is saved."
