It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Zhao Si quietly introduced the details of her good sisters to the king.

Butterfly belongs to the elf race.
The elves have the wood attribute.
My mother happens to be a practitioner with an affinity for water.

Combining the excellent genes of both parents,

Her face, figure and talent are all impeccable.

There is another interesting point.

She can use two kinds of spiritual power to complement each other.
Among them, the wood element has strong spiritual power, while the water element is at a medium level.

Currently, she is at the upper level of Heavenly Master, and is invincible among those at the same level.

Peach blossoms suddenly appeared, blooming one by one.

She sensed a vast and powerful life force.

It is continuously irrigating this beautiful peach forest.

Therefore, she can also absorb this spiritual power.

It's like immersing yourself in a moist and refreshing hot spring.

The mind is relaxed, and the body can't help

Two huge wings were ejected.

A clap, a fan,
The unique fragrance of the elves spread with the wind.

The exotic fragrance is not harmful to humans.
On the contrary, it makes people feel happy, refreshed and full of energy.

This girl is truly a "walking hormone"!
With this unique talent,
No wonder Hu Die could become the number one courtesan in the imperial city.

Zhao Si and Lu Yuan walked side by side.

"Do you know the benefits of this little girl?"

Lu Yuan laughed softly and said, "I'm not bad either!"

"That's to please girls.

You're really wasting your energy to make the peach blossom bloom!"

Zhao Si knew that Lu Yuan's realm was frighteningly high.

The peach blossoms suddenly bloomed early.

And he also followed Zhu Wu's figure, which could only be intentional by Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan did not deny it and said calmly:

"The essence of spiritual power is to make people happy.

If everyone is a little happier, the world will be a little more beautiful...

Besides, I can see such big wings, worthy of it!"

Zhao Si felt that these words were full of positive energy.

But she said deliberately jokingly:
"Haha, now you're exposed. I knew you had bad intentions..."

Zhu Wu ran to the side of Taoyuan and suddenly exclaimed:

"Come and see!"

They rushed forward and came to the stream at the edge of the woods.

Zhu Wu pointed at a pile of black objects in the water and asked:
"what is this?"

Zhao Si took a quick look and said, "Tadpoles... eggs laid by frogs!"

Zhu Wu squatted down and took a closer look.

"Huh? They all have small tails, like little fish fry..."

"Well, I'll be a frog when I grow up anyway!"

This was Zhu Wu's first time seeing him, and he was like a curious baby:
"Really? I want to catch two and keep them as pets to see how they change..."

Zhao Si didn't like cold-blooded animals, so he said casually:
"What's so good about this thing... Besides, I didn't bring a can..."

Lu Yuan, who is willing to help beauties,

He took out a glass bottle from the space and handed it to Zhu Wu.

Zhu Wu was excited and prepared to catch a few.
Lu Yuan said with a slightly raised mouth:
"Before you raise one, a friendly reminder,
You need to change the water frequently when raising this thing, and these tadpoles,
It could be a frog, or it could be... a toad."

Zhu Wu froze and asked doubtfully:

"You mean, their babies are exactly the same?"

Zhao Si smiled and nodded, saying:
"It's true...it's almost indistinguishable.
I advise you not to keep it, right? "

Zhu Wu has a straightforward personality and will not easily change his mind once he has made up his mind.

She said unconvincedly:
"I just don't believe it. How can it be such a coincidence?"

After saying that, he took the bottle out of the water.
I caught two or three tadpoles the size of green beans.

She held up the bottle and looked at the sunlight seriously.

Several tadpoles seemed to be frightened and swam back and forth desperately.
"Look, they are swimming so happily.

The baby of a lazy toad must be slow...so, it must be a baby frog!"

However, it is a bit of a nuisance to hold the jar in your hand.

Zhu Wu handed the jar to Doctor Li again:
"I'll keep it here with you first, and give it to me when we get back to the palace, okay?"

“Is there a storage fee?”

"Does this cost money? I'll give you ten cents. Is that enough?"

"Ten cents is ten cents!"

Lu Yuan smiled, took the jar and put it back into the space.

Zhu Wu and Hu Die were not surprised by Doctor Li's magical skills.

As a miracle doctor, he must be at least a high-level practitioner who is proficient in the wood element.
It is quite normal for a magic weapon to have storage space.

With their intelligence, they must understand.

The peach blossoms in the garden bloomed strangely, and there was a 99% chance that Lu Yuan was secretly manipulating it.

Although Lu Yuan is suspected of "cheating",

But Zhu Wu was still very happy in his heart.

Women don't usually mind men lying.
What they care about is the other person's attention and attitude.

Lu Yuan was able to painstakingly make the peach blossoms bloom.

It is enough to make yourself feel happy.

In fact, Zhu Wu had always been against Lu Yuan before, but it was not because he disliked him.
If you really hate a man,
Women will most likely keep their distance, or at least won't take the initiative to approach.

After all, Lu Yuan is very young.
Not only is he tall and handsome, he also possesses superb medical skills. Who wouldn't like him?

As for Lu Yuan's "greed for money", it also indirectly shows that he can make money.

More importantly, he is a “diamond bachelor”!

There are almost no men in the palace.

I still don’t know what the king looks like, or whether he has a bad temper…

Therefore, Zhu Wu gradually developed a liking for Lu Yuan in his subconscious.

When the peach blossoms in the garden bloom for me,
She felt that Lu Yuan must like her in his heart.

Spring is here, the man has feelings, the woman has intentions,

She didn't mind having more contact and more ambiguity with "Dr. Li".

Of course Lu Yuan knew this very well.

Zhu and Hu came here passively, unlike Zhao Si who used the "honey trap".

When Zhao Si secretly visited me through the Ministry of War,
It was Zhang Xiaoliu who used Zhao Si to seduce the King of China in order to gain greater benefits.
The three of them knew in their hearts that this was a dirty political deal behind the scenes.
Of course, Zhao Si now,

It is the outer residence of the King of China and has nothing to do with Zhang Xiaoliu anymore.

Lu Yuan was happy to accept the beautiful woman and the control of Shanxi.

He believes that a peaceful solution is ten thousand times better than a war.
As for the argument of being 50-50 with Zhang Xiaoliu, that depends on whether you have the ability.

You are in control of the situation, and no one can take it away from you.
You are incompetent and stupid, and you are deserted by your friends and relatives. Even the gods cannot save you.

The development of the situation was exactly as he expected.
In less than two days, Zhang Zongchang, who had returned to Jinyang alone,
He easily dealt with Guo Linsong and the three bosses, and by the way, he "kept" Zhang Xiaoliu in captivity.

This game was a win-win situation for Lu Yuan and Zhang Zongchang.
Zhang Zongchang naturally became the ruler of the Three Jins.
Not only did they drive out the ambitious Guo Linsong, but they also only needed to maintain local law and order.

According to the agreement between the two parties, all tough battles against the imperial court would be fought by the Chinese army.
As for lowering taxes to benefit the people, Zhang Zongchang had no objection.

Because he could see that this was an effective means of winning the people's reputation and prestige;

This will also make your seat more stable.
Besides, compared to when he was the second in command, his current income has more than increased tenfold.

As the government of Sanjin prospers and the people are harmonious, his income will surely increase, so he is very satisfied.

Lu Yuan didn't care about the Three Jins at all.
Compared to the Shenling Empire, what he got was not only a piece of land,
Solve the problem of "the world's best terrain" in Shanxi Province,

Just like a sharp axe, it split a large gap in the Great Wall defense line, not only directly threatening the retreat of the Jingji Army,
It also formed a strategic posture of looking down on the King of Fu in the Central Plains, the King of Shun in Xijing, and the King of De in Wuchang.

This is the "winning move" in Go.

A deadly move that can kill with one sword.

The Shenling court could do nothing but stare blankly, with almost no good solution.

First, the Imperial Guards were waging a "tacit war" south of Shanhaiguan.

The Huben Army, which belongs to the Gyeonggi Legion, will never leave the imperial city under any circumstances.

In fact, Shen Ling’s million-strong regular army has long been a misnomer.

The ubiquitous corruption and the layers of plunder from top to bottom have hollowed out the empire.

Why was Lu Yuan’s rebellion successful?
In addition to the technological gap between Yanxianghui and other armed forces,
The key is that the people have had enough of being exploited and have no hope for the future.

All officials are corrupt. The higher the official, the more corrupt they are. It's rotten from top to bottom!

Therefore, when Lu Yuan led his army back to Taining from Beihai,
There was light in the eyes of the lower-class people, and they abandoned the court without hesitation.

I have sold my children and have to eat dirt and grass, and you still want me to selflessly dedicate myself to the court?

Go to hell!

Besides, Lu Yuan has the ability.
And share the benefits with everyone. Who doesn’t deserve to be the emperor?
On the other hand, according to Tong Guang,
In the imperial court and the army, it has become a situation where "no money means no progress".

In fact, the situation is even more serious within the military.

If you don't pay, you can't even be a small flag officer.

Therefore, middle and high-level generals were basically children of officials.

These dandy boys have been pampered since childhood and have no knowledge or skills.
I have never suffered, nor experienced life-and-death battles.

Our understanding of war is completely based on textbooks and classic cases.

To put it bluntly, it is a low-end version of "paper talk".

Therefore, in the battle against the Jurchens, the powerful Liaodong border troops found it difficult to gain an advantage.

For example, the Northern Navy’s “Central Blossom” raid and beheading forced 100,000 guards to retreat back to the interior.

In addition, a 100,000-strong army from Southern Zhili besieged Mount Longhu but returned empty-handed.

The northern border troops of Shanxi were no match for the combined forces of the Russians and the Mongols.

The situation in Jiangxi Province changed within less than half a month.
The three navies can only fight pirates, or play the role of pirates at best...

The so-called invincibility of the Shenling Army is purely a paper statistic.

Every exercise is a "myth" but becomes a "joke" once it comes to actual combat.

All these fully demonstrate that corruption and fraud in the military
The situation is too bad to be reversed. There is no hope.

In reality, Guo Linsong is about to plot his plan for Hetao.
The Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Lords are eyeing Guanzhong covetously, and the Xijing Shunwang Corps can hardly protect itself.
The 123rd Mixed Brigade of China will surely sweep across Jiangxi and Hunan and confront the Prince of De across the river.
The three towns of Nanhai, reborn from the ashes, will also become a thorn in the flesh of the South.

The Invincible Fleet killed two birds with one stone and became the overlord of the sea.

The Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and even the South China Sea are all under the shadow of its giant ships and cannons.

That is, the imperial court has no troops to mobilize.

The real reason why we have to recruit brave warriors and deal with it in a mess.

In short, Lu Yuan was in his heart.

The Emperor Linggui was sentenced to death.

In two or three years, the people whose lives are worse than death will be able to change their lives.

If you don’t agree, come and argue (dog head smiling face)…

Why is Lu Yuan so confident?
First, looking at history vertically,

Those who do not win the support of the people are doomed to perish;

Second, let’s look at the shameful end of similar products.

For example, Gao Jianwu, who danced on the grave,
There is also Tokugawa Iemitsu hiding in Nijo Castle,

Including the Russian emperor and the Mongol chief, they all became good at singing and dancing.

A spring outing in Taoyuan brought the four people closer together.
When they parted, Zhao Si held Zhu Wu and Hu Die's hand and told them not to worry.

"Eat when you should, drink when you should, sleep peacefully,
I usually dress up beautifully, but if the king sees me, he will be shocked!"

Zhu Wu glanced at "Doctor Li" and said with a smile:

"Ah, sister Hu Die has nothing to say,

But the king will definitely not look down on a mediocre woman like me!"

A trace of sadness flashed across Hu Die's brows, and then she smiled and said:
"Who cares? Just live one day at a time!"

After sending the three people to the village entrance, Zhao Si waved goodbye.

Lu Yuan and Zhu Wu Hu Die were on their way back.

Looking at the construction site of Highway 1, the farmers were working hard with sweat on their faces.
Hu Die was very curious: "Why is the road so wide? It must be rammed very solidly..."

Building a two-way four-lane highway is the minimum requirement.
If the foundation is not solid, it will be a waste of money to repair it in the future.

In today's era, Route 123,
It is definitely a unique and huge project.

Zhu Wu has someone in his heart.
As one gains, the other loses, so naturally they have no good feelings towards the "King of China".

"Hey, I think it's just a waste of money and manpower.

In another two years, his true nature might be exposed and he might become a tyrant!"

Hey, little girl, your slander is groundless!
Lu Yuan couldn't help but say:
"It's always a good thing to make the road wider and more solid, right?"

Zhu Wu said in surprise:
"But this is such a waste. It would be better to use the money saved to help ordinary people!"

Lu Yuan pointed at the migrant workers who were smashing the stones and shouted:
"Hey, you, come here!"

The migrant worker was stunned for a moment, then came over with a bamboo hammer.
"Sir, what's the matter?"

"How much do you earn for a day's work?"

The migrant worker smiled and said, "Food and lodging included, 80 cents a day."

Lu Yuan continued to ask: "How much money could you make in a day when you were farming?"

"Alas, there is no comparison. In a good year, it is only 1,800 wen..."

Zhu Wu and Hu Die were a little confused and asked, "Can you earn so much from farming?"

Lu Yuan explained: "It's eight hundred coins a year..."

The migrant worker grinned and said, "Yes!
Throughout the year, I can only have a few full meals.

It’s different now, we have come at a good time…”

Another migrant worker carrying a load beside him laughed loudly:
"If you ask me, our Chinese nation has a good king!"

The migrant worker holding the hammer slapped his forehead as if awakened from a dream:
“Ah, yes, yes!

It is thanks to the king that we can live a good life..."

Suddenly, the supervisor wearing a "red hoop" on the high ground shouted over here:
"Hey! What are you doing? If you keep being lazy you will lose your work points!"

"I'm sorry, I have to get to work!"

The migrant workers quickly ran back and continued to throw stones.

I dare not delay, otherwise, half of my salary will be deducted, which would be so painful!

Zhu Wu and Hu Die looked at each other in bewilderment.
Everything before their eyes forced them to change their perception of the King of China.

After all, the migrant workers randomly picked on the roadside,

It is impossible that they were "actors" arranged in advance.

This means that the King of China is quite popular among the people.

On the way back to the palace, Zhu Wu chatted with Lu Yuan casually.

Hu Die listened and guessed, not saying much.

After entering the palace gate and returning to the courtyard, Lu Yuan returned the "Toad Tadpole" to Zhu Wu.

Zhu Wu thanked him happily and was about to put it on the windowsill.

Lu Yuan spread out his left hand.

The meaning is very clear, asking for ten cents as a storage fee.

Zhu Wu burst out laughing and took out some silver notes from his pocket, the smallest of which was twenty cents.

"Here, here you go! How stingy!"

Lu Yuan took it with a smile and said, "I'll give you ten cents..."

"Forget it, just consider it as a reward for you!"

Hu Die glanced at the two people flirting and went into the inner room.

Zhu Wu rolled his eyes and asked quietly, "Doctor Li, where do you live?" (End of this chapter)
