    When Lu Heng was in trouble, he suddenly heard a cry of death and the sound of rapid horse hooves in the city. He was startled and hurriedly pulled Lin Lin aside, quickly walked to the gate of the prison, and walked through the crack in the door.  Looking outside, I saw a tiger general riding a green and maroon lion. Although he was about fifty years old, he had a strong body and looked radiant. He was holding the Nine Phoenix Chaoyang Sword in his hand, wearing steel armor on the outside and steel armor on the inside.  Lined with chain mail and wearing a lion helmet, he looked majestic, with five hundred armored cavalry following closely behind him.  n¡Ê

    "It's Old General Huang!" Lu Heng's face lit up with joy, and he immediately shouted out.

    After hearing this, Lin Lin asked: "Which General Huang?"

    "General Hu Lie" Lu Heng immediately opened the door, stumbled out, and said with joy, "Old General Huang! Thank you for coming to the rescue!"

    Huang Zhong turned over and dismounted, threw the Nine Phoenix Chaoyang Sword in his hand to his subordinates, walked straight towards Lu Heng, supported Lu Heng, and said straight to the point: "Huang came late, let Mr. Lu suffer.  It¡¯s just that Huang is only fifty-one years old, and Lian Po is not old enough, let alone Huang? Mr. Lu, don¡¯t call me old general again.¡±

    Lu Heng nodded and said hurriedly: "General, there are still 1,500 prisoners in the city. They are in the barracks. General Huang, please go and rescue them quickly."

    Huang Zhong chuckled, stroked his gray beard, and said: "Master Lu, those people have been rescued. Don't worry, Master Lu. But, strange to say, all 1,500 people were tied up."  They lived there, but there was no one in the military camp, and even the huge county seat was deserted. Why did the Han army do this? "

    Even though Lu Hengdang told Zhuge Liang and all the things he said about Lin Lin, Huang Zhong asked suspiciously: "Who is Zhuge Liang? He has such a loud tone?"

    Lu Heng shook his head.  He said he didn¡¯t know either.

    "I know!" Lin Lin suddenly shouted.

    Huang Zhong and Lu Heng both turned their attention to Lin Lin. Huang Zhong looked at Lin Lin and saw a kind of anger between Lin Lin's eyebrows. It was really rare for a five-year-old child to have such anger.  He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Who is this?"

    Lu Heng said hurriedly: "This is the second"

    "General Hu Lie, my name is Gong Shufei." Lin Lin cupped his fists and said.

    "Gongshu Fei?" Huang Zhong saw Lu Heng was respectful to Lin Lin and heard the name Gongshu Fei. He thought of Lin Nan's former Gongshu wife. Then he looked carefully at Lin Lin's appearance. His eyes, nose, and face were all the same.  Nai's father was so similar that he already understood Lin Lin's identity.

    However, Huang Zhong did not reveal it to his face.  Since Lin Lin didn't want to say it, he certainly had his reasons.  He had also heard some rumors that the second prince was a mature young man with natural powers and a prodigy in martial arts. When he met him today, he saw Lin Lin with sharp eyes and high energy.  There was no trace of the tenderness that a child should have on his face, and I couldn't help but admire him secretly.  Such a person will definitely become a famous general in the future.

    Huang Zhong cupped his fists towards Lin Lin and said, "It turns out that I am Gongshu's son. I have admired him for a long time."

    "Jiu Yang? Have you heard my name?" Lin Lin asked suspiciously.

    Huang Zhong was just saying polite words. Who knew Lin Lin would be so serious? There was a wave of embarrassment on his face.

    ¡°The public loses to the young master, the general just talks casually.¡±

    "Oh." Lin Lin smiled.

    after.  Huang Zhong occupied Yuyang City, and after being awakened by the imprisoned guards, they were all released back. This was considered to be a thank you to Zhuge Liang for releasing the 1,500 cavalry.

    When Huang Zhong learned that Lin Lin had rescued Lu Heng, he also looked at Lin Lin with admiration.

    Lin Lin left the city on his own.  Go and get back Fang Tian's painted halberd that he buried outside the city.

    After Huang Zhong saw Lin Lin, he couldn't help being shocked and asked hurriedly: "Master Gongshu, where did your weapon come from?"

    "Umthisis a secret" Lin Lin said in a mysterious way.

    Seeing that Lin Lin didn't answer, Huang Zhong didn't ask further questions. He just felt very curious as to how Lu Bu's Fangtian Painted Halberd got into Lin Lin's hands.

    One day later, Zhang Liao, Wenpin, and Zhang Qian all arrived at Yuyang City, and gathered together with Huang Zhong and Lu Heng. They met each other and each told their heartfelt stories.  Later, Huang Zhong led his troops back to Runan, while Zhang Liao stayed behind and led his troops to garrison in Yuyang, waiting for the imperial decree.  Lu Heng left Lin Lin behind and returned to Luoyang alone with his personal entourage to resume his life.

    Three days later, the imperial edict was issued, ordering Wenpin to stay in Yuyang, and Zhang Liao returned to Wancheng. He was demoted three levels in a row, but he was still the governor of Wancheng's military affairs. It was a small punishment but a big warning to silence the public.

    On this day, just after the scouts who conveyed the imperial edict left, Zhang Liao saw Lin Lin dancing with Fang Tian's painted halberd, but he was too young., the height is too short, and Fang Tian's painted halberd is long and heavy, but it looks like a monkey brushing a stick.

    Zhang Liao never asked about the origin of Fang Tian's painted halberd, because after Guan Yu's duel that day, he noticed someone on the tree. With the corner of his eye, he saw that the person on the tree was Lin Lin, and then he pretended to be Lin Lin.  Fang Tian's painted halberd was buried there.  In fact, he just wanted to leave this Fangtian Painted Halberd to Lin Lin.  For him, Fang Tian's halberd painting technique ran counter to his sword technique and was not suitable for practice, so he left it to Lin Lin.

    Today, he saw Lin Lin practicing Fang Tian's Painted Halberd. Looking at it from a distance, he laughed and thought to himself: "These Second Highnesses are really smart. They even painted Fang Tian's Painted Halberd all red with vermilion paint for fear of fear."  I recognized it as the relic of Fengxian Gong."

    A few days ago, after Lin Lin carried Fang Tian's painted halberd back, Huang Zhong recognized at a glance that the Fang Tian painted halberd was Lu Bu's relic. Lin Lin dug up the Fang Tian painted halberd and buried it for fear that Zhang Liao would recognize it.  , so I painted it again with vermilion lacquer. It wasn¡¯t until the vermilion lacquer dried today that I took it out for use.

    When Zhang Liao noticed Lin Lin, Lin Lin also noticed Zhang Liao. Seeing that Zhang Liao was not suspicious of Fang Tian's painting of a halberd, he practiced Fang Tian's painting of a halberd with peace of mind.

    Zhang Liao slowly walked towards Lin Lin and asked, "Master Gongshu, what are you doing?"

    "Practice the halberd technique!" Lin Lin said.

    Zhang Liao laughed and said: "Jiang Lian? Do you also call this halberd training? No matter how I look at it, it looks like a monkey playing with a stick."

    Lin Lin was stunned for a moment and asked: "How should it be considered as a monkey playing with a stick?"

    "Give me Fang Tian's painted halberd, and I'll show you the drill." Zhang Liao stretched out his hand and spread it in front of Lin Lin.

    Lin Lin wiped the sweat from his forehead, frowned, and hesitated for a moment.  It seemed as if he was worried that Fang Tian's painted halberd would be recognized as soon as it entered Zhang Liao's hand.

    Zhang Liao saw the worry in Lin Lin's heart and said: "All the Fang Tian Hua Ji in the world are the same. I have practiced one and a half moves in my early years. If you can trust me, let me practice it."  Let me show it to you. I¡¯m sure you¡¯ll know how to practice Fang Tian¡¯s painted halberd.¡±

    Lin Lin nodded and handed the Fangtian Painted Halberd to Zhang Liao.

    Zhang Liao took Fang Tian's painted halberd and waved it casually a few times. After nodding, he said: "Young Master Gongshu is born with supernatural power. I didn't expect that such a heavy Fang Tian's painted halberd could be picked up by Young Master Gongshu."  .¡±

    After saying that, Zhang Liao began to practice Fang Tian's painted halberd. Once he made a move, it was extraordinary. He danced the halberd with great force. He opened and closed it wide but also defended it tightly. After three moves, Lin Lin was dumbfounded.  .  Because these three moves are exactly the first three moves of the "Unparalleled" Halberd Technique.  Although it is said to be a starting position, each move is very complicated and often runs counter to the normal halberd technique.

    After Zhang Liao finished practicing the halberd technique, he stopped and said: "These three moves were learned by me from the unparalleled Marquis of Jin in the past. It took me a full month to learn these three moves. Changes in Jin Hou's halberd technique  The moves may seem ordinary, but in fact they contain hidden secrets, and each move is deadly. Therefore, once the Lu Ji technique is deployed, it is like a strong wind blowing away leaves. However, the moves are empty and the true energy in the body is the only one.  It¡¯s true. This halberd method requires the movement of the true energy in the body, and then uses the true qi to activate the moves, which makes the halberd method even more powerful and can bring out the maximum power of this halberd method.¡±

    "You mean to practice your Qi first and then your moves?" Lin Lin is indeed a martial arts wizard, and he can master it with just a few clicks.  However, perhaps out of worry, Lin Nan never asked Zhu Gongdao and Zhu Pingping to teach Lin Lin how to practice Qi and swordsmanship. He only learned the most powerful moves of Zhu Gongdao and Zhu Pingping's life. Really and  If people compete, they will easily lose their lives.

    Zhang Liao nodded, seeing that Lin Lin was a talented person, and he wanted Lin Lin to learn Lu Bu's halberd technique, so he was so concerned.

    "The martial arts in the world are divided into nine grades, and the best one is the first grade. This halberd method is the most superior halberd method, one of the first grades. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the world was in dispute, and the Marquis of Jin could laugh proudly with his own force alone.  It can be said that it is truly unparalleled in the world. It is a pity that I only know these three moves and cannot teach you more. But as long as you practice Qi deeply, it will not be difficult to practice this halberd technique.  . Therefore, it may be of great help to you to practice your Qi first and then your weapons. Besides, you are still young, not tall enough, and your arms are not strong enough, so when you dance, you look like a monkey."

    After listening to Zhang Liao's words, Lin Lin seemed to have enlightened and immediately said: "I understand, but how to practice Qi? I have never learned it."

    After Zhang Liao heard this, he was also surprised. He knew that Lin Lin was taught by Zhu Gongdao and Zhu Gongping, but he did not expect that these two people did not teach Lin Lin Qi training.Tao.  He smiled and said: "I see that the young master is very talented. Even if he practices qi now, he will soon be able to catch up with his predecessors. Come, I will teach you how to practice qi. After three years, you can practice weapons again."  , we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.¡±

    Lin Lin was very sincere. He sat there and learned how to practice Qi from Zhang Liao.  He understood everything and learned very quickly, so he basically didn't encounter any difficulties. What he lacked was just the guidance of a famous teacher.  In addition, Zhang Liao also personally taught him riding skills, which made Lin Lin feel more useful.

    From then on, Lin Lin humbly asked Zhang Liao for advice. Zhang Liao brought Lin Lin back to Wancheng to train Lin Lin physically, allowing Lin Lin to gradually experience the joy of a little soldier.

    ¡­¡­

    Luoyang, in the main hall of the Imperial Palace, the Administrative Office of the Privy Council.

    After receiving Lu Heng¡¯s memorial, the four lieutenants, Jia Xu, Xun You, Guo Jia and Gai Xun, couldn¡¯t help but feel a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Lin Lin, who was just five years old, rescued Lu Heng.  Moreover, from Lu Heng's information, I also learned the name of another person, that is Zhuge Liang.

    The four lieutenants did not dare to hide anything and reported everything to Lin Nan truthfully.  Lin Nan was surprised after hearing this.  The one who was surprised was not his son, but Zhuge Liang.

    "Zhuge Kongming, I asked Sima Yi to keep looking for you in Langya Mansion. I didn't expect that you were already at Big Ear Thief's place. You actually actually gave me a letter of challenge?" Lin Nan said in surprise.

    Sima Yi is now highly trusted by Lin Nan. The reason is that he erased Sima Yi's name in the first imperial examination and later took Sima Yi on a tour.  It also allowed Sima Yi to see what the war was about, which would have a great impact on Sima Yi in the future.  Later, Sima Yi took the imperial examination again, and this time he still won the top prize in liberal arts with his proud talent.  Instead of erasing his name, Lin Nan sent Sima Yi to Langya Mansion in Xuzhou as the magistrate, and asked him to visit various places.  Visit talents everywhere.

    Because a man named Deng Xiang whom Sima Yi once recommended got first place in the martial arts examination. Lin Nan thought that Sima Yi had the ability to recognize people, so he secretly gave Sima Yi a task, that is,  Find a man named Zhuge Liang.

    In the past two years, Sima Yi almost visited Langya Mansion, but found nothing, so he reported it to Lin Nan.  Lin Nan continued to ask Sima Yi to look for him. Later, he never received any news from Sima Yi about Zhuge Liang.

    Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang had already followed Liu Bei, which made him feel annoyed.

    "Send an order to Bian Xi to secretly lurk in Jingzhou to look for a man named Pang Tong. You must bring this man back to me." Lin Nan sadly lost Zhuge Liang.  He thought of Pang Tong again and thought that Zhuge Liang had defected to Liu Bei.  Pang Tong was not sure, so he issued a secret order.

    Originally, Lin Nan denounced Zhang Liao for losing his troops, but when he knew that Zhuge Liang was Guan Yu's supervisor, all the problems were easily solved.

    After the emissary left.  Lin Nan wrote another letter in his own handwriting, and then sent a special envoy to rush to Langya Mansion in Xuzhou and asked the special envoy to deliver the letter to Sima Yi.

    "Now that Zhuge Liang has come out of the army, Sima Yi should also step onto the stage of history."

    Jia Xu, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Gai Xun didn't know why Lin Nan was so obsessed with Sima Yi. They saw nothing but literary talent, because Sima Yi had never fought a battle.

    After Gai Xun heard this, he first clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Sima Yi is still too young. Although he has managed the place well in the past two years and Langya Mansion is peaceful, he may not be ready for war. I think it is appropriate to send veteran generals. Now that our country has passed  After five years of rest and recuperation, the country has prospered and its troops are well-prepared. For five years, our army has been on the defensive, and the soldiers are holding back their strength. In my humble opinion, our army has suffered heavy losses due to Jinghan's provocation, and it should be mobilized.  We will fight back with an army of 200,000, and swallow up Jingzhou in one fell swoop.¡±

    Guo Jia also took a break for five years. During these five years, dealing with official documents was very boring. When he heard that there was going to be a war, he immediately became energetic. He clasped his fists and said, "If the emperor wants to send troops and horses to destroy Jinghan, I am willing to serve as an accompanying military advisor."

    Lin Nan glanced at Jia Xu and Xun You and asked, "What do you think, the two lieutenants?"

    Jia Xu and Xun You said: "I second my opinion!"

    Xuzhou, Langya Mansion.

    Calm sky blue walls, green curtains with red flowers and bluegrass patterns, a knitted screen in front of the cast iron stove shelf; a mahogany antique cabinet filled with various knick-knacks behind the glass; glass beaded footpads on the bookshelf  There is a row of various art of war books.

    The autumn sunshine shines in this small courtyard, and it looks so comfortable when it shines on the young man who is holding a book of "Six Tao" and reading it carefully under the corridor.

    It¡¯s been a long time since freshman yearAfter a while, a government servant walked in from outside the courtyard. After seeing the young man, he bowed and said, "To inform the magistrate, His Highness has just entered the city and is currently on his way to the government office"

    "Well, I understand. When His Highness arrives at the gate of the government office, let me know." The young man read "Six Tao" tirelessly, as if he didn't want anyone to disturb him.

    The yamen servant shook his head helplessly. He originally wanted to remind him, but he knew the character of the young prefect, so he turned away.

    Not long after, the yamen servant came back again, this time he seemed so panicked, and said hurriedly: "Sir, His Highness has already arrived"

    The young man only nodded slightly, waved his hand, and said, "Yes, I understand. Take His Highness to the living room. I will be there in a moment."

    The yamen servant was startled for a moment, and saw that half of the book in the young man's hand was still unread. He knew the young man's temperament, and he immediately wanted to finish reading the book. If he didn't finish the book, he would definitely not leave, even if  Even though there was a fire behind him, he was still able to finish reading the book as always.

    "Your Majesty, the person here this time is His Highness" the Yamen servant reminded again.

    The young man was still unhurried, his sharp eyes squinted from the book to the yamen servant's face. After just one glance, the yamen servant closed his mouth and stopped talking.  Turn around and leave.

    After the yamen servant left, the young man continued to read his "Six Tao" with great relish.

    In autumn, the afternoon sun shines warmly on you. This is near the sea, and there is always a faint smell of sea in the air.  The young man was sitting on a recliner, reading his book word for word, without any interruption from the outside world.  Even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, he would not change his expression.

    In the living room of the government office, Lin Qi and Xia Houlan had been waiting for a long time, but the magistrate of Langya Mansion had not come out.

    Xia Houlan couldn't sit still anymore, summoned a yamen servant, and asked scoldingly: "What's going on with your prefect? ??His Highness has arrived, so it's okay if he doesn't go out of the city to greet him. Now that he's arrived at the yamen, why is your prefect?"  Master, why don¡¯t you come out yet?¡±

    ¡°This¡­that¡­our prefect, he¡­¡±

    "Go! Call Sima Yi to come out and tell him that His Highness is impatient with waiting. If he doesn't come out, I will be guilty of disrespecting his brother!" Xia Houlan said angrily.

    The yamen servant was also very embarrassed, hesitating and not knowing how to answer.

    at this time.  Lin Qi suddenly coughed twice, and then said slowly: "General Xiahou. The visitor is a guest, and we are guests. There is a saying that guests do as the host does, and we should do as the Romans do."

    After finishing speaking, Lin Qi said to the yamen servant: "Go and do your work. Don't disturb your family. He must have something important to do. It won't be too late to see me again after he has dealt with those important things."

    The yamen servant was very grateful to Lin Qi and slowly exited the living room.

    Xia Houlan didn't know what Lin Qi meant, so he asked: "Your Highness, isn't this Sima Yi too arrogant? I informed him in advance, but who knew he would be so negligent today. Your Highness, do you want me to go and do it?"  Is he being arrested to apologize to His Highness?"

    "General Xiahou, please don't be reckless. Sima Yi is a high-ranking official of the imperial court. He is an official of the imperial court. Although I am a prince, I have no position. Logically speaking, I should bow to him when I see him. The same goes for General Xiahou.  A third-grade official, Sima Yi is also your superior officer after all. If you see him later, General Xiahou should be more polite, otherwise, he will be contradicting your superior officer," Lin Qi said slowly and carefully.

    After hearing this, Xia Houlan was a little unconvinced and sighed and said: "Your Highness is so kind-hearted. To deal with an arrogant person like Sima Yi, we should give him a serious blow. Let him remember that he will never do this in the future.  I'm neglecting His Highness."

    After hearing this, Lin Qi just smiled slightly and said nothing. Then he sat in his seat, closed his eyes and calmed down, waiting for Sima Yi quietly.

    Xia Houlan stopped talking. He was not angry even if he was a prince. He just started making fun of him.  He also sat down there and secretly shouted in his heart: "When I get back and find out, I will definitely give you a copy in front of the emperor. If you have the ability, don't show up today!"

    Time passed little by little, the sun set over the mountains, twilight fell, and the living room was still extremely quiet.

    Xia Houlan was sitting in his seat and started to doze off. Along the way, he had to rush and take care of Lin Qi's food and daily life. He was really tired, so once he sat down for a long time, he would inevitably get sleepy.

    Lin Qi was sitting there, keeping his eyes closed and breathing evenly. He didn't know whether he was asleep or awake.

    It¡¯s passed againAfter a while, the yamen servant started lighting the lamp in the living room, and informed Lin Qi and Xia Houlan that Sima Yi had no time to see them today and would have to wait until tomorrow, and arranged for them to stay in the west wing.

    Xia Houlan really didn't expect that Sima Yi really didn't come to see them. She was really angry and clamored to arrest Sima Yi to find out what happened.  Lin Qi persuaded him to stop him, and asked someone to prepare some food and wine. This comforted Xia Houlan, and the two of them went to have a rest.

    After an uneventful night, Xiahoulan and Lin Qi were tired on the saddle and horses along the way. Lin Qi was weak, so Xiahoulan did not dare to let him bump too much, so the journey was relatively slow.  However, both of them were relatively tired, so once they fell asleep, they slept until dawn.

    ¡°Dong dong dong!¡±

    A rapid drumbeat sounded in the government office. The rapid drumbeat woke up Xia Houlan and Lin Qi from their sweet dreams. When they got up, they asked, "Who is playing the drum?"

    The Yamen servant replied: "It's our Lord Prefect."

    "Why are you beating the drum, Master Sima? Is there any case to be tried?" Lin Qi asked.

    The officer replied: "Langya Mansion has been peaceful for the past two years. There are no roosters or dogs in the territory. The prefect has not even set up a prison. How can there be any cases to be tried?"

    Lin Qi had heard about the public security situation in Langya Mansion early in the morning, but he didn't know it would be so clean.  He continued to ask: "Since there has always been peace in Langya and there are no cases to be tried, why is Lord Sima beating the drum?"

    The rumble of the drums has been uninterrupted, sometimes as fast as raindrops, sometimes as slow as a snail, in short, the drums have not stopped while they are talking.

    "Your Majesty, you don't know. This is our Lord beating the war drum. Our Lord has said that beating the war drum can boost morale, thus doubling the courage of the soldiers who are fighting bloody battles on the battlefield. Therefore, every morning, our Lord will  He beat the three-way drum himself, and then he rested after the three-way drum was beaten."

    "Three tongs and drums?" Lin Qi has never been involved in the art of war or military affairs.  The books he studied were also the Book of Songs, etiquette, etc. Although his father often taught him not to be rigid and rigid, but to draw inferences from one example and to think that others dare not think and do things that predecessors dared not do, but for these three tong drums, he  I really don¡¯t understand.

    Xia Houlan has been in the army for many years and knows the three-tone drum best.  Lin Qi saw trouble on his face.  He explained: "Your Highness, the ancient three-way drum was used to beat drums to urge conquests. In ancient times, two armies fought. They usually set up a battle formation face to face, and then one side beats the drum to call for battle, and the other side beats the drum to respond to the battle. If the other side does not beat the drum to respond to the battle,  , the party calling for war usually starts the attack after beating the three-tone drum."

    After hearing this, Lin Qi found these things very interesting.  But he couldn't learn it in the palace.  He heard the drums were still beating and wanted to see who Sima Yi was. Every time he heard Lin Nan's conversation, he seemed to admire Sima Yi very much.  So, he walked out quickly.  Heading towards the direction where the drum sound came from.

    Xia Houlan followed closely, but in her heart she was cursing Sima Yi for not being polite.

    Following the sound of the drums, the two people soon arrived at a large venue where Sima Yi was playing drums. When the two people followed the Yamen servants and came here, they were suddenly dumbfounded. This Sima Yi was so amazing. He personally beat the drums and made a rumble.  Under the beating of drums, rows of chickens, ducks, and geese automatically lined up in a line, standing there flapping their wings and squawking happily.

    In addition, at the edge of the square array of chickens, ducks, and geese, four dogs squatted in four different corners, like four gods, staring motionlessly with their two dog eyes, closely guarding the chickens, ducks, and geese.  Ducks and geese.

    On the top of a high platform, I saw a lean and capable young man, well-dressed, with a long shirt and top hat, white sleeves rolled out, holding two drumsticks, and beating the war drum regularly. If not Sima Yi, who else could it be?

    Lin Qi looked at Sima Yi carefully and saw that Sima Yi was tall, fair-skinned, and had two long beards on his temples that moved with the wind and fell on his shoulders, making him look particularly elegant.

    Sima Yi's handsome face without any flaws, his thick and clear eyebrows are embedded with a pair of shining eyes like gems, his broad forehead shows wisdom beyond ordinary people, and there is a hint of calmness in him.  A melancholy expression that can impress anyone, but it also makes people feel that the emotion is so deep and elusive.

    "This is Sima Yi. He is indeed a talented person with both talent and appearance." After looking at it, Lin Qi felt that Sima Yi had a great attraction to him for some reason.  Of course, that kind of attraction does not mean that he has that orientation, but that he is simply attracted by Sima Yi's temperament.

    After a while, the drum sound stopped. Sima Yi put down the drumstick, wiped the sweat on his forehead, turned around, and slapped the group of poultry in the open space. The four dogs left first, and thenThen, the chickens, ducks, and geese lined up to go back to their nests, which seemed extremely regular.

    After that, Sima Yi walked to Lin Qi's side, cupped his hands and said, "Did your Highness have a good rest last night?"

    Lin Qi nodded and responded politely: "Thanks to the warm hospitality of the prefect, I had a good rest last night."

    Sima Yi smiled and said nothing. He moved his eyes to Xia Houlan. Seeing Xia Houlan's displeasure, he said, "General Xiahou looks so violent. Could it be that these government officials did not treat him well?"

    "Sima Yi! You" Seeing that Sima Yi was smiling but not smiling, Xia Houlan was already angry, and now he was even more angry, so he couldn't help laughing and vented his anger immediately.

    Seeing this, Lin Qi hurriedly interjected: "Master Sima, General Xiahou hasn't woken up yet. Please don't be like General Xiahou. I really want to chat with Master Sima. I wonder if Master Sima has time?"

    Sima Yi smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness is kindly inviting you. I shouldn't refuse, but I still have some official business to deal with, and I really can't get out of it. Please bear with me, Your Highness."

    After hearing this, Lin Qi couldn't help but be startled, wondering what kind of medicine was being sold in Sima Yi's gourd?

    "As far as I know, Langya Mansion has always been very peaceful, and the prefect has nothing to do every day. Why does he say he has official business now? I don't know what the prefect's official business is?" Xia Houlan stood there with his arms crossed.  He said with a sneer.

    Sima Yi said: "Official business is official business, there is nothing to explain. You two may just walk around in Langya Mansion, but I will do my official business. I'll say goodbye."

    After saying this, Sima Yi turned around and left.

    ??

    Lin Qi first bowed to Xiahou Lan, and then said seriously: "General Xiahou. Thank you for taking care of me along the way. I have arrived at Langya Mansion safely. The general's mission has been completed. There are many more in the palace.  The matter is waiting for the general to do. Please tell my father that everything is fine in Langya Mansion after the general returns."

    "YourYour Highness" Xia Houlan was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Lin Qi would order him to be kicked out.

    "General Xiahou, please remember what I said. Tell it to my father." Lin Qi said every word, as if he was afraid that Xiahoulan would forget.

    Xia Houlan raised his hand helplessly, cupped it towards Lin Qi, and said, "In that case, I will set off back to the capital today. However, Your Highness still needs to take more care."

    "Thank you for your worries, General Xiahou. I will definitely take good care of myself." Lin Qi said.

    Xia Houlan turned around and left. He didn't want to stay here anymore, but he didn't understand why Lin Qi tolerated Sima Yi so much.

    When Lin Qi saw Xia Houlan leaving, he left too. After leaving the government office, he stopped letting the officials follow him. He wandered around the streets of Langya Mansion alone, asking some questions about Sima Yi's personality.  Unexpectedly, the results were unanimous, and the people all praised Sima Yi.

    In the next two days, Lin Qi would watch Sima Yi play the drums every day. After playing the drums, he turned around and left, never saying a word to Sima Yi.  As for Sima Yi, he never formally proposed to meet Lin Qi. He just left Lin Qi to dry and ate ordinary people's meager meals every day.

    On the morning of the third day, Lin Qi got up early and came to the place where Sima Yi was playing drums.  The drum was still the same drum, and the place was still the same, but after waiting for a full hour, Sima Yi was nowhere to be seen.

    Lin Qi was curious for a while, so he asked the Yamen servant: "Is the prefect sick today? Why didn't you come to play the drums?"

    The officer replied: "The magistrate received the emperor's imperial edict and rode alone to the capital yesterday afternoon."

    "What?" Lin Qi was shocked for a while, why did Sima Yi leave so quietly? This imperial edict came too suddenly.

    At this time, the Yamen servant took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Lin Qi, and said: "Your Highness, this is a letter that the prefect asked me to deliver to His Highness."

    Lin Qi hurriedly took the letter and opened it immediately to read it, but saw that it read: "Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty are the five flavors of life. Today we are saying goodbye, so I have nothing to give to you. I can only give it to you with the Five Flavors Bookstore."  Your Highness, I hope that Your Highness can devote himself to practice and appreciate the five flavors of life.¡±

    Lin Qi then laughed, closed the letter, and said to the Yamen servant: "Please take me to Wuwei Bookstore!"

    The yamen servant nodded,?Took Lin Qi to Wuwei Bookstore.

    Wuwei Bookstore is Sima Yi's exclusive place in the government office. No one can enter the bookstore except him, because Sima Yi is addicted to books. For the past two years, except for normal official business, Sima Yi has been alone there.  I spent time in Wuwei Bookstore.

    After arriving at Wuwei Bookstore, the yamen servant did not dare to move forward and stayed there, saying to Lin Qi: "Your Highness, this is Wuwei Bookstore. The small ones can only be sent here."

    Lin Qi nodded and entered Wuwei Bookstore alone. As soon as he entered, he smelled a strong fragrance. Then he saw that the whole room had become a sea of ??books, and the whole room was filled with neatly arranged bookshelves.  , the bookshelves are filled with a dazzling array of books, and both the bookcases and the books are spotless.

    He casually took down a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" from the bookshelf. As soon as he opened it, a scent of fragrance hit his face, and he noticed that there was a piece of rue sandwiched in the middle of the book.  In addition to this, there are notes at the bottom of the book.

    Lin Qi couldn't help but frown, and flipped through a few pages, all with notes.  Then, he flipped through the book from beginning to end and found that there were notes in someone's handwriting at the bottom of the pages.

    He curiously took down several other books and looked through them, and was surprised to find that each book had been annotated.

    "Sima Yi is indeed a genius. He actually annotated every book he has ever read, and his personal insights are quite unique."

    Lin Qi put the book back to its original place, leaving only a copy of "Historical Records" in his hand, and began to browse silently. He had read "Historical Records" before, and with his amazing memory, he could even recite it backwards and forwards.  But today, he was reading word for word, sentence by sentence. Every time he finished reading a sentence, he would glance at the annotations below. Gradually, he discovered that Sima Yi's annotations were unprecedented. He couldn't help but be deeply attracted by the books Sima Yi annotated.  Interested, keep watching, keep watching

    After that, Lin Qi stayed alone in the Wuwei Bookstore, re-reading all the books he had learned before with great pleasure. He was surprised to find that some of the things he didn't understand before were found in Sima Yi's annotations.  I actually found the answer.

    From then on, Lin Qi seemed to have discovered a huge treasure house. Except for eating and sleeping, he spent all his time in the Wuwei Bookstore. Later, he simply moved into the Wuwei Bookstore himself. All meals were given by the government servants, except for going to the toilet.  , he hardly goes out anymore.

    Sima Yi left, but the Wuwei Bookstore left behind was a huge wealth for Lin Qi.  Ever since the Battle of Wancheng broke out, he had anticipated that it was time for him to step onto the stage of history.  In the past two years, during his stay in Langya Mansion, he seemed to be indifferent to outside affairs. In fact, he cared more about the country's military trends than anyone else. He even secretly asked people to buy state secrets from the Intelligence Department. Some of them  Sometimes, he even knew some secrets before the people in the court.

    In the past two years, Sima Yi did not save money or silver, and spent all his salary on purchasing information from the Intelligence Department.  Although the intelligence officers of the Ministry of Intelligence are all carefully selected and loyal to the country, individual bugs cannot be ruled out.

    Before Lin Qi arrived at Langya Mansion, Sima Yi had already predicted it, so on the day the imperial edict arrived, he rushed the written memorial to Luoyang and recommended his younger brother Sima Fu to serve as the  The prefect of Langya Mansion.

    After Lin Qi arrived, Sima Yi also made some clever arrangements, deliberately avoiding Lin Qi, which whetted Lin Qi's appetite. In addition, he sent people to secretly monitor Lin Qi's every move, thus understanding everything about Lin Qi.  After Lin Qi, he decided to give up his Wuwei Bookstore to Lin Qi.

    Since Lin Nan invented movable type printing a few years ago, improvements have been made one after another, and papermaking has also been improved. Therefore, in the second year of China's Shenzhou, printed books have become completely popular.  .  Since then, the Huaxia Kingdom has bid farewell to the era of using bamboo slips and printed many ancient classics into books, which greatly facilitated some well-educated people.  In addition, the paper produced by the new papermaking technology was relatively good, and Lin Nan also strictly controlled the price of paper, so paper and books became popular throughout China.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
