Huainan Prince's Mansion.

Liu Ling got out of the car, picked up the hem of the skirt, ran into the hall with a thunderous voice, "Father, my daughter is back."

Liu An, the King of Huainan, was holding a volume of books in one hand and a pen dipped in cinnabar in the other hand. He was proofreading carefully. He heard Liu Ling's voice and an unconcealed smile appeared in his eyes. He put down his pen, stood up, bypassed the desk filled with books, and went up to meet him.

"Hahaha, my daughter is back. I wonder what good news I will bring back? I have been there for several months. I must have visited all the talents from Jiangdu Kingdom?"

"Although it's not too far, it's not far away." Liu Ling said with a smile, greeting the guests who participated in the proofreading of the books, and asked the maid to take a swing model and place it in front of Liu An. "Father, all the wise men, Ling has a small problem and we need to discuss it with you."

When Liu An heard this, he became interested. He called the guests to come over to hear the problems brought back by Liu Ling on this mission. Liu An is recognized as a wise king and has outstanding talent and knowledge. These close guests are also talented and arrogant, with a bit arrogant and arrogant. Although Liu Ling is smart, they have not taken it seriously.

Their enthusiasm for Liu Ling was just out of etiquette. When it comes to academic issues, they had nothing to be humble. As they had just participated in the compilation of a brilliant masterpiece, what kind of problems could stump them, or did they not know what they didn't know?

After successfully arousing everyone's interest and arrogance, Liu Ling showed Liang Xiao's problem.

She knew that these people were all talented and knowledgeable, but she believed that this problem could stump them. Only by stumping them could Liang Xiao's cleverness be highlighted. Only by highlighting Liang Xiao's cleverness can Huan Yuan's rejection appear natural. Can teach such a wise disciple, Huan Yuan is qualified to show off. Otherwise, where will the face of the Huainan Prince's Mansion be placed and how can these people's mood be balanced?

After listening to Liu Ling’s question, most people gave answers like Liu Ling based on common sense. Even those who are a little more scheming don’t agree with it. What’s the question? It’s too expensive to discuss such a question.

Liu An was a little uneasy. He was under a lot of pressure to send Liu Ling to the mission. If Liu Ling could not complete the task successfully, he would be suspected of being nepotist and unknown, which would damage his reputation.

The prince Liu Qian, who rushed over after hearing the news, smiled and said nothing, looking at how Liu Ling explained. He also complained about this capable sister.

Liu Ling was calm and moved the copper swing model, and began to time as everyone watched.

A moment later, a surprising discussion sounded in the hall. Although this question was just a little trick that was not elegant, the obvious consequence of being contrary to common sense made these people feel embarrassed. If you make a mistake in such a simple question, what else can you say that you know astronomy and geography?

Liu An was also surprised, but he was more relieved and started discussing with his guests in a happy mood.

After arguing for a long time, they did not discuss a result, so they had to ask Liu Ling. Liu Ling became humble at this time and admitted that she had only a little understanding and did not really understand the truth. It is precisely because of this that she wanted to rush back to Huainan and ask all the talents for advice.

At this time, the disciple was recommended. Among the thousands of disciples in the Huainan Prince's Mansion, there was a geek named Chen Guobin. He was said to be a child of the Mo family. He didn't read much, but was good at calculating and was very interested in various practical techniques. He might be able to answer Liu Ling's questions.

Liu An immediately asked someone to call Chen Guobin. Chen Guobin was indeed very interested. He ignored the rudeness and chased Liu Ling to ask questions about Liang Xiao, and then hugged the swing model and went happily.

Liu An called Liu Ling to the inner room, and the father and daughter sat down, and Liu An put away his smile.

"Why didn't Huan Yuan come?"

"Daughter dare not assert." Liu Ling shook his head. "Maybe it was because of his disability, he was ashamed of himself and afraid of being humiliated. Father, he was already abolished and could not lead the army anymore, and devoted his energy to teaching his disciples. According to his daughter's opinion, it would be better to focus on Liang Xiao."

"How strong can a teenager of fifteen or sixteen years old be even a genius?"

"Father, when Huan Yuan was a general, he was just weak. Could it be that the father did not have the elegance of the King of Wu?"

Liu An pondered silently. He thought for a long time, but shook his head. Liu Bi's appointment of Huan Yuan as a general was opposed by many veterans. If he appointed Liang Xiao as a general, he would be afraid that there would be greater resistance. Because Liang Xiao offended many disciples alone, this is not a choice that a smart person should make.

"Ling'er, let's discuss this matter again. The emperor has no son. Once he is not aware of it, I have a great opportunity to inherit the throne smoothly, and it may not be necessary to make a big fuss. Famous generals are not as good as famous scholars. Liang Xiao is so young again, and I am afraid he will not be able to bear the heavy responsibility."

"Father, the emperor is only seventeen years old. Even if he has no son, he will have at least twenty or thirty years. Twenty or thirty years, many things may happen."

"Although the emperor is only seventeen, it has been several years since he married Empress Chen, and there is no news yet." Liu Qian walked in from outside, closed the door, and said with a smile: "It's the older person at the age of three and the older person at the age of seven. Among the sons of the late emperor, there are not many who have no descendants at the age of seven."

Liu Ling didn't say anything, she didn't want to have direct conflict with the prince. No matter how capable she was, she was a woman after all, and wealth was due to her father and brother, so it was not wise to have dirty things with the Sijun. Moreover, she also had her little thoughts. She did not want Liu Qian to be interested in Liang Xiao, so she wanted to take Liang Xiao into her mansion and accompany her.

I don’t know what this Jiaotong is doing now, and whether Hu Lai has caused trouble for him. Liu Ling’s mind is a little erratic.

...

Hu Lai was assassinated and died. Liang Xiao finally became quiet for a few days. After accompanying Huan Yuan to watch the test, he watched a military review. After returning home, he practiced his archery skills carefully while starting to learn military tactics from Huan Yuan. His life was simple and fulfilling.

Huan Yuan taught Liang Xiao a military art. It is very different from the "Sun Tzu's Art of War" that Liang Xiao knew. Most of this military art is about the application of cavalry, and he particularly praised the mobility of cavalry. Liang Xiao was very strange. As far as he knew, the large-scale application of cavalry was first advocated by Huo Qubing after Emperor Wu of Han attacked the Huns. Huo Qubing is still drinking milk in his mother's arms. How could anyone admire cavalry so much?

Huan Yuan did not say who the author of the art of war was, and he was even unwilling to explain too much, but just let Liang Xiao memorize it by rote.

Liang Xiao had no choice but to bite the bullet and recite it. Fortunately, this military strategy was not long, only more than two thousand words. He memorized it in just two days, and then he started to think about this military strategy if he had something to do, hoping that he could find some clues from the choice of words and sentences.

This military art is somewhat different from the Han Dynasty articles he has read. It contains many ancient characters and common words in Wu and Chu, and has a bit of the flavor of "Chu Ci".
