Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 1185 A Simple Home

The second prince took Liu Ya to the center of the capital, looked at the stone houses up close, and felt that the roughness was yet romantic, the domes, columns, and arches all had strong exotic features.

The streets are also very clean. Most of the streets are paved with large stone slabs. Some small streets are dirt roads, and there are stone slabs in the center.If it is raining, even if the road surface is a little muddy, walking on the stone pavement will not dirty your shoes.

Qingfan's army traveled all the way, and now they came to the capital without gathering and rectifying, and dispersed on their own.

Just like what the second prince said, these soldiers are the ones with swords and guns in wartime.Usually, they are just ordinary people, but because of this, they are the ones who really want to defend their homeland.

But in the end, there was still a team of 200 people always following behind the second prince.Cang Qianzhuo explained that those soldiers were the imperial guards of the royal family, and each member of the royal family would have a guard team ranging from ten to more than a thousand people.

The king's bodyguard has 700 people, the queen's bodyguard has 500 people; the princess's and prince's bodyguards each have 500 people; the lord's bodyguard has 100 to [-] people according to their ranks; It ranges from one to a hundred people.

After the second prince finished speaking, he looked at the guards behind him and said with a smile: "I originally had a guard of 500 people, but this time I only brought 200 people with me to the battlefield. The rest are at home."

After listening to this rule, Liu Ya stuck out her tongue and joked: "You Qingfan's army is only tens of thousands of people, and the population is only hundreds of thousands. Each royal family can have a guard team of hundreds of people. In this way, the royal family Wouldn't it be possible to catch up with half the army if the guards added up?"

The second prince smiled and said: "How many people do you think Qingfan's royal family has? Qingfan's royal family is not as large as Yunqiong's royal family. The previous king and queen only gave birth to a princess and two princes Among them, a prince died young. The current king has not yet established a queen, and there is only one concubine who gave birth to two princesses for him, that's all."

Liu Ya was really surprised when she heard this, and said: "Now I understand why the royal family has to bring so many guards. I dare say that rare things are more valuable. But since there are so few people in the royal family, who is going to fight with them?" What are you fighting for?"

The second prince said: "What I just said was the direct line of the royal family. As for the collateral line, there are currently three people who are equally qualified to compete for the throne like me. One of them is the eldest son of the previous king. Brother, my uncle."

Liu Ya frowned slightly when she heard this, she straightened her eyes, and then said: "You mean, the son of the previous king and the current king fought for the throne back then, and after losing, they are now fighting again. gone?"

"Yes. I also said that in Qingfan, as long as they are capable people, they can inherit the throne. But the premise is that the incumbent king intends to abdicate, or is suffering from a serious illness and is about to die." The second prince finished speaking , turned to Liu Ya and said solemnly: "I suspect that the reason why the current king wants to abdicate is because someone threatened him. So I am back, and I want to take over Qingfan."

Liu Ya rubbed the center of her brows, and felt that Qing Fan's throne seemed relatively simple, as long as he had the ability to get it, he could take over, and there was no such thing as seeking power and usurping the throne.But in fact, it is also a battle of intrigues, which makes people feel tired just thinking about it.

While speaking, the second prince had brought Liu Ya to the front of a big stone house.Said to Liu Ya: "This is my home, are you disappointed?"

Liu Ya stood still and looked at the stone house, feeling somewhat disappointed in her heart.

This house is much larger than the stone houses we passed by before, and the dome is also beautifully built.There is also a fence around the door, which can be seen as an unusual place.

But He Liuya originally thought that the second prince who could lead a bodyguard of 500 people should live in a castle, right?Now this big house is enough for 500 people to live in, where will he put the [-] guards?
Liu Ya couldn't help laughing and said: "Cang Qianzhuo, where is the remaining 300 guards you mentioned? Where is your 500 guards usually placed? Don't tell me, your housekeeper is called 'Wu Bairen'?"

The second prince also smiled, and said: "I said, the rest of them are at home. There is no need for Qingfan soldiers to stay in the barracks. In fact, the imperial court does not have that much financial resources to support a huge army. Even if it is the king's personal guards, they don't live in the palace every day. They arrange their shifts and patrols, and they return to their positions according to the time. And if the king wants to go on patrol, or other circumstances When you need to gather, you must come back immediately according to the king's call."

This time Liu Ya understood, and dare to say that Qingfan's army implements the on-the-job system, and when they are not on duty, they can rest at home, farm, and do some side jobs.

But this does save a lot of money, regardless of the cost of a huge army.For example, food, housing, and clothing cost a lot of money, and it is indeed not humane to trap people firmly in military camps.

When we got here, the team of 200 people behind the second prince disbanded again.In the end, there were only more than 20 people left, and they followed the second prince back home, and then guarded them separately.These people should be responsible for today's security work, and it is estimated that someone will take over in a while.

Now, Liu Ya has really improved her opinion of Qingfan, and feels that both the management concept and the country's governance model here are very advanced.And what the second prince is worried about, whether Qingfan can be managed well, shouldn't be a big problem.

"Come in." The second prince led Liu Ya into the stone house.

The introduction said: "Because most of the stone materials used to build stone houses are large pieces, and stones are difficult to sculpt, the stone houses built are not as good as the Han-style big houses, and the division of functions between the houses is not so obvious. This The largest is the main hall, with a bedroom on the left and right sides, and two small rooms at the back for the kitchen and bathroom, that’s all.”

Liu Ya took a look, and it really is a very simple layout, but each room is very spacious.The furniture style is also simple and rough, but there are no tall cabinets or screens, but there are several large wooden boxes in each room.

The second prince said: "Choose one of the bedrooms on the left and right. In fact, I haven't lived there much. Now that I'm back, I'm really settled down. You wait for me here, I have to meet the king before I can come back. "

Liu Ya nodded and said: "Okay, men left and women right, I'll choose the one on the right. Go do your work, I'll stay and rest by myself."

　The weather is too hot, and the update time cannot be fixed.To be honest, after sitting on the bench for a while, the PP in the box is wet with sweat, and I can only write for 10 minutes, blow on the fan for a while and then come back.Don't wait for the update, you are desperately coding every day, and you dare not slack off.Feel free to whip it, little whip, I feel helpless if I can’t write it.
