The Demon Soul is Coming

If it is said that Xiaomei Xiaotian was used to being arrogant among children before, then this time, they probably hit the iron plate. The children from Zuhai, Zhao Xiaochong and Wu Xiaoji, before they came to Ningyun City, They were all raised as pirates, and they were instilled in them from an early age to fear nothing, fear nothing, and the belief that the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. Zhao Wugeng is also a famous Haiba, and also a master-level master. ◎Smart kids remember super fast hand typing updates.◎

Of course, in terms of talent, Xiaomei and Xiaotian are still the tallest among the children, but it is obviously not enough for the two of them to be strong alone. When it comes to the ability to fight hard, the rich second-generation official second-generation around them, Naturally, they couldn't beat Zhao Xiaochong and Wu Xiaoji's second-generation pirates who were used to murdering and robbing when they were young.Zhao Xiaochong, Wu Xiaoji and the others also found that if they were provoked by Xiaomei Xiaotian to fight alone, they would not be able to defeat them no matter what, so they would stand shoulder to shoulder every time, so Xiaomei Xiaotian was beaten every time. Chase and run around.

The children were playing and fighting, so Liu Sang naturally couldn't say anything, both sides were the hope of Ningyun City's future, children playing and fighting, maybe one day it will suddenly get better again.If they intervene forcibly, it will deepen the rift between the two parties, and it will make Xiaomei Xiaotian and the others feel even more humiliated.

He just looked at his apprentice: "You don't want to mess with them in this kind of thing, just in case you get hit..."

Xia Xia said in a small voice: "Xiaomei Xiaotian will protect me, and, moreover, no one hits me..."

Because this little girl has no sense of existence?Or is it because she is too weak that others are too embarrassed to bully her?

Liu Sang sighed.His female apprentice, of course he doesn't like her to fight around with those little kids, just like every parent hopes that their children will neither bully others nor be bullied, but the reality is that children have children If you control your own world too much, it may not be a good thing for children.Moreover.Apart from Xiaomei and Xiaotian, Xia Xia didn't have any other friends, even if she couldn't help them.She would still like to follow them, it was better than being alone.

He thought for a while and said with a smile: "In this case, I will teach you some things in the past few days, so that you can help everyone."

Although she didn't know what Master was going to teach her, the little girl was still happy...

Write down the "Huangdi Neijing" silently and ask Xia Xia to recite it. In the hot summer, Liu Sang went outside for a walk.

Fang hadn't left for a long time, but saw a fiery red fox jumping down from a branch, turning into a beautiful woman: "Mr. Sang."

Liu Sang said with a smile: "You are not staying in Toad Palace, why come here again?"

Hu Cui'er said: "There's nothing to do! Mr. Sang. Let's go to the sea to watch the sun rise."

Liu Sang looked at the sky. Although it was already dark, it was indeed difficult to fall asleep in such a hot weather. Then she looked at her big eyes full of anticipation.Liu Sang said: "Okay, but let's bring Xiaomei..."

Hu Cui'er pulled him: "Hurry up, hurry up."

"Wait a minute, let's bring Xiaomei..."

"Master Sang, come and chase me."

Seeing the cheerful fox-tail girl running farther and farther, the bored boy sighed...Take Xiaomei too...

But think about it, these days it seems that he hasn't spent much time alone with this fox-tailed lady.It was rare for her to be so happy tonight, so they chased her, and the two of them went out of the city, talking about me and me, hugging and hugging, rolling and rolling in the wilderness, and fighting several times, in various positions, Then we watched the sunrise together on the cliff. The fiery red sun slowly rose from the sea and sky, spreading all the red clouds, which was naturally beautiful.

The fox-tailed lady snuggled into his arms happily: "Mr. Sang, let's come and see the sun tomorrow, okay?"

The boy said, "Okay, let's bring Xiaomei along."

Foxtail Lady said: "Okay."

There was a burst of ecstasy in the boy's heart.

After daybreak, Hu Cui'er went back to Toad Palace, Liu Sang returned to Ningyun City, before entering the Marquis' Mansion, she saw Mo Mei walking out with a stick of secrets on her back.He was greatly astonished: "Xiaomei, where are you going?"

Mo Mei said: "Brother Sang, I want to go to Yucheng."

Liu Sang asked in surprise, "The army is in chaos, what are you going to do in Yingdu?"

Mo Mei said: "I just went to see Mr. Qin, Xiaomei is from the Mo Sect. Since I have returned to Hezhou, I naturally want to contact the Mo Sect. I was going to tell you last night, but I went to find you At that time, Xia Xia said that you went out."

With Hu Cuier and Xiaomei's big plan of "seeing the sun out" together, it's okay if it can't be completed for the time being, but Liu Sang is really worried that Xiaomei will go on the road alone, so he wants to go with her.Xiaomei's heart was warm, but she said: "It's not long since you first returned to Ningyun City, and my sister still has a lot of things for you to do. What's more, it's not the first time for Xiaomei to walk alone in the rivers and lakes, and there are more dangerous places before. Passing by is just a trip to Yucheng, and I will be back soon."

Liu Sang naturally knew that with Xiaomei's intelligence and the magic wand in her hand, ordinary people would not be able to embarrass her, not to mention that as a Mohist, it is true that she does not walk in the rivers and lakes for a day or two. , Sometimes it is purely based on emotion, Xiaomei is his woman now, he naturally has more to worry about her, so he thought, he might as well send a few Xuancai from Toad Palace to protect her.

"No," Xiaomei couldn't help laughing, "You send people from the Yinyang family to protect the disciples of the Mo family. How is that proper? Besides, my sister also helped me to open a survey and cooperation document, and it was very convenient to go through the official post all the way." .”

Liu Sang thought, the relationship between Xiaomei and his wife is getting better and better.

He actually hoped that Xiaomei would leave Momen so that he could always be by his side, but it was a pity that he knew that Xiaomei would never agree, Xiaomei was Xiaomei, no matter how timid she looked and how much she needed protection, But her firm beliefs and opinions cannot be changed by others.

Xiaomei hugged him and said softly: "Brother Sang, don't worry, I will be back soon."

Unable to change her decision, Liu Sang naturally had nothing to do with her, so he had to ask for a hero from the zoo and send her out of the city.

Assist the lady in handling some government affairs in the city.He took Xia Xia out to sea again, arrived at the Toad Palace, taught her some knowledge of Yin and Yang spells, and then handed her over to Hanzhu Mengmeng.Knowing that this girl is the inner disciple of the Grand Palace Master, Siyue naturally treats her solemnly.

Leaving Xia Xia in the Toad Palace, Liu Sang took four maids back to Ningyun City. These four maids were all carefully selected by him from among the female disciples.In terms of age, he is about the same as him.

Most of the female disciples in the Toad Palace have been selected into the Toad Palace since they were a few years old.In the past, she was either an orphan or the daughter of a poor family. After growing up.Apart from taking Toad Palace as his home, he has no other relatives.

Although these four girls are doing maidservant work by Liu Sang's side, but because they are maidservants next to the Grand Palace Master, although they are not inner disciples in name, they are already equivalent to inner disciples in fact. Someone who is smart and intelligent cannot be selected, just like the previous palace lord, Mrs. Tianjiao, who was originally a maid beside the previous Mrs. Feiyan.Then he became Madam Feiyan's inner disciple, and was heavily trained by Madam Feiyan. He became Caiyi, Xuancai, Moon Envoy, and Double Flower at an extremely fast speed. Once Madam Feiyan died, he became the master of the palace as a matter of course.

certainly.The previous palace lord was one of the best masters, and this grand palace lord seems to be far behind the previous grand palace lords, but they have already discovered that although in terms of strength, the grand palace lord is too young.It can't compare to the two flower masters and the four moon envoys, but when it comes to "spells" and other kinds of knowledge, the grand palace master is not inferior to anyone, and the Yinyang family's spells are very good for "spells" The requirements are extremely high. For these female disciples, it is the most important thing to lay a good foundation in "spelling". Much more.

Daiyu and the other four girls naturally didn't know that these four names were actually "plagiarized", but they just thought that the name chosen by the Grand Palace Master was also nice.

For these female disciples, it is actually common to change their names when necessary. For example, if they are promoted to Caiyi or they are labeled as Tsing Yi, they will usually change their names, like Feiyue Piaopiao and Yinyue Xuanxuan. Wait, before becoming April Envoy, they were not called this name. In Toad Palace, except for April Envoy, Caiyi and Xuancai could not have "Yue" and "Zhu" in their names, let alone the disciples.Even for more ornate names like "Daiyu" and "Baochai", generally speaking, only people with colorful clothes and above can take them, while the names used by ordinary female disciples are more plain and simple, usually What kind of girls, such as Chun'er, Xia'er, Qing'er, Xuemei, etc., but the inner disciples are also the maids around the palace master or Shuanghua. Saying it is an honor. <The four servants return to the garden, and Xiao Zhu is there too.

Xiaozhu was originally sent by him to take care of Xiaomei, but since Xiaomei had left, she had nothing to do for a while, so she went back to the master, who knew that the master brought back four maids.

Daiyu and other four daughters were carefully selected from more than 300 female disciples. Naturally, each of them is very capable. Xiao Zhu stayed with Liu Sang and suddenly had nothing to do.

Although this girl has been brought up to be a little lazy since she stayed by his side, she still feels very strange when she really finds out that all her affairs are being done by others.Obviously she is the master's personal servant girl, so if this goes on like this, it's better not to be kicked out of the house, so Xiao Zhu looked at Master Fu Ma pitifully: "Master, what am I doing?"

Liu Sang thought for a while, and found that there was really nothing she could do. Now Daiyu and the others took care of her bathing and dressing, so she said, "Forget it, you go and warm my bed."

Xiaozhu... froze.

The days when I returned to Ningyun City were relatively leisurely. After all, I was only a military adviser and general. Most of the time, I just made suggestions. The specific affairs were done by others, and it was impossible to change the general policy every day.

Although the power of "Eastern Yue Overlord" Xue Zhong is still expanding, posing a threat to Ningyun City, it is impossible for Ningyun City to take the initiative to attack, it can only be blocked by soldiers, covered by water and soil, and prepared in advance.

Maritime trade is harassed by pirates of unknown origin from time to time, but because of Xia Yingchen's return, Zhao Wugeng no longer needs to sit in Ningyun City, so he personally leads a group of warships to Zuhai to support Nangong Kuiyuan, relying solely on "Sea Tyrant" With his prestige at sea, the situation in Zu Hai immediately improved a lot.

Under the guidance of Liu Sang and Hanzhu Mengmeng, Xia Xia learned some healing and auxiliary spells. The spells and spells of the Yinyang family were originally based on the principle of easy learning, which happened to be her specialty, and the healing and auxiliary spells did not need to be ahead of the curve, and also suited her slightly timid character.

Xia Tian is kind-hearted, not only will the people on his side help relieve the pain, but they will also help when they see others being beaten and injured.Whether it's Xiaomei, Xiaotian, Xiaochong, Xiaoji, no matter how ruthless they fight.Afterwards, she would still be afraid of the pain. For a while, she became like a Bodhisattva.Although he is not the kind of leader, but no matter who he has a good relationship with.

And just as Liu Sang thought, a group of children, no matter how much they fight, quarrel for three days and make peace for two days, and they get to know each other better, and the relationship gets better and better.

“晃呆呆，就是那个明明没什么厉害却总爱往前冲，每次都被人揍得鼻青脸肿的晃呆呆啦。”

"Isn't that the grandson of Huang Chengshou?"

Xia Xia pursed her lips and said: "Well, he has been abducted by Wu Xiaoji now. Xiaomei was so angry that she followed her all day long and scolded him as a traitor, but there are many boys on their side, now They circle around Xiaomei every day. They do whatever Xiaomei asks them to do. Also, Xiaoji’s younger sister likes Xiaotian, but Xiaotian doesn’t like her..."

Hey, just play and fight, don't give me puppy love.

Children now...

Liu Sang thought to himself, to these brats.It's not good to be too strict, but it's not good to let it go completely, so Xia Xia was asked to play with Xiaomei and Xiaotian, and went to find his wife by herself.

I found Xia Yingchen in the main hall where the business was being discussed. Xia Yingchen was sitting behind the case, flipping through the documents, and seeing him coming, he gave him a questioning look.Liu Sang expressed his thoughts, and Xia Yingchen pondered: "Elementary school?"

Liu Sang said: "Different from Yangzhou, Hezhou has never had a primary school before. It was only a small school, and only children from aristocratic families can enter. Children from poor families can't afford private schools. It is also difficult to change fate, so I don't care about the education of my children, and some children of aristocratic families, even if they are ignorant, can occupy high positions in the future, and naturally they have no ambition to make progress. , poor people do not see the opportunity to change their own destiny, they hate the rich and the noble. So I want to open a primary school and gather some qualified children to train them. Those with excellent grades will be recommended to government schools regardless of their family background."

He added: "Of course, there is another reason to allow the children of Zudao to integrate in as soon as possible, and at the same time to cultivate talents for Ningyun City. Hezhou is already in chaos. No matter whether there will be a change of dynasty, the breaking of the old family and the powerful It is inevitable to reshuffle the cards, and those who cannot keep up with the times will only be abandoned by the times. Just like the Daqi Dynasty in Yangzhou, the imperial examinations have already begun. It is completely different, breaking down and building up, in such a chaotic situation as Hezhou, the cultivation of talents is the most important."

Xia Yingchen said: "This reason is too general."

Liu Sang said with a smile: "Actually, Xiaotian, Xiaomei, General Zhao, General Wu and other generals' children are kept in enclosures, so as to save them from playing wild outside."

Xia Yingchen said: "If you just want to bring up the children of generals and adults together, then running an official school is enough, but you are talking about elementary schools..."

Liu Sang said: "Not only the children of generals and adults, but also the children of poor families can come in as long as they pay a certain tuition fee, and the tuition fee is only a symbolic collection. Of course, different family backgrounds still have to be treated differently, but at least It can give all children a chance to learn. Not only the children in Ningyun City, but also the children in the surrounding cities, as long as they are outstanding, they can also be selected." Although it is a world where the Mohist school is unique, but the powerful family and the hierarchy Power, still cannot be ignored, he would not be so stupid as to really think that a school where all children, rich or poor, are equal, can be established right away.

Of course, the reason why he made such a suggestion is because Ningyun City is really not short of money now, and on the other hand, it is also because the Xia family in Ningyun City has not been entrusted for a long time, and the influence of the aristocratic families here is not that great Powerful, but Hezhou is in a mess, many clans are hard to protect themselves, and change is inevitable.In his last life, the imperial examinations only began to appear in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and with the emergence of the imperial examinations, the aristocratic families were naturally broken.

In this era, the influence of Mohism, which emphasizes "respecting the same and universal love", is more suitable for the emergence of the imperial examination system. At least Zhongyanzhou and Yangzhou have made some achievements in this respect, but Hezhou It is biased towards the east corner, and the country has been established for 300 years. It has always adopted the hierarchical system of "Shi Qing Shi Lu". After 300 years, it has naturally become rotten.

In fact, Liu Sang can also understand the determination of the imperial court to cut down the feudal clan. If you don't cut down the feudal clan and don't change it, you can only wait for death. Unfortunately, determination is one thing, but implementation is another. If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. If you don't reform, you will die. If you don't reform well, you will die quickly.

Xia Yingchen pondered and said: "It's easy to run a primary school, it's just a matter of money, but the lecturer..."

Liu Sang said: "Hezhou is in great chaos. As long as you are willing to pay and hire, there will naturally be learned scripture teachers, and there is no need to focus on any aspect. What is taught in primary schools is mainly some general theories and foundations. After Xiaomei comes back, you can ask her to teach me, or ask her to help us with some ink debates, such as astronomy, geography, Mohism, calculation, etc. It should be no problem. It's enough to find a few colorful clothes in the Toad Palace, and don't forget, my lady, there is also a great scripture master who has been invited three times and four times by the Academy..."

Xia Yingchen said: "Oh? There is such a person? I don't remember."

Liu Sang... was defeated.

Xia Yingchen said: "It was originally a good thing, since you have this idea, I will leave it to you to do it well."

Liu Sang thought, although it’s a good thing, it’s quite annoying to do it, so I’ll start with it, and then leave it to Aunt Piao, Aunt Xuan, Aunt Fei, and Aunt Meng to do it. Anyway, they’re idle too… …
