Mrs. Wang couldn't help but said: "Conscience of heaven and earth, have I ever lied to you? Now you even doubt me?"
"If you don't believe it, just send someone to see if Baoyu is really dying? If that's not the case, why would I come to beg you?"
"You also know that I have never liked that short-lived girl. If Baoyu hadn't been obsessed with her and was obsessed with her, how could I let her in?"
After hearing Mrs. Wang's words, Yuanchun sighed: "If that's the case, that's it. I'll just grant them a marriage."
"It's just that if you act like this, you will definitely offend Brother Huan, which may not be a blessing. Mother has to find ways to make up for the relationship with Brother Huan."
Mrs. Wang couldn't help but said angrily: "You are all afraid of the environment like a cat and mouse, but I didn't know where that little beast got such power? Now that you are the empress, don't you have to be afraid of him?"
Yuanchun said helplessly: "Mother, Brother Huan is the number one scholar who has won six consecutive prizes before, and with such great ability, he will definitely be reused by the emperor."
"We are a family, how can we measure it by whether we are afraid of him? As long as the relationship with him is not so estranged, if he becomes powerful in the future, won't he support Baoyu?"
"How could mother not see the dangers in this?"
After Yuanchun finished speaking, Mrs. Wang was speechless for a long time.
After a long while, he said: "Since you said so, that's it. I'll just ignore him from now on."
"That little beast is so rampant, I'm afraid he will hate me to the bone because of this matter. This is something I can't control."
Yuanchun said: "Mom, Brother Huan is actually a very sensible person. As long as you treat him sincerely, he will not repay kindness with hatred."
When Mrs. Wang came out of the palace, she felt very angry.
Unexpectedly, since she was the daughter of the empress, she was also afraid of that little beast, and even advised her to respect that little beast from now on.
How could she endure this little beast that she usually scolded and beaten at will, and could even control his life and death, now he had to sit on her head to shit and urinate?
Fortunately, the empress agreed to the marriage, and the matter of Baoyu was finally resolved, which was considered a happy event.
…
Jia Huan was talking to Lin Daiyu in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but Qingwen hurried over and reported: "Third Master, the prince is visiting. He is drinking tea in the living room now. Please come over quickly."
The prince is here?
Jia Huan's impression of the prince is quite good. He is a green young man with a sense of justice and is extremely malleable.
And as the prince, Jia Huan naturally did not dare to neglect him.
He left the Xiaoxiang Pavilion in a hurry and went back to Ningguo Mansion.
Seeing the crown prince, Jia Huan hurriedly paid homage and said, "I'm here to pay my respects to His Highness. I didn't know that His Highness was coming here. I missed the opportunity to greet him from afar. I hope that Your Highness will forgive me."
The prince couldn't help but help Jia Huan and said with a smile: "On a whim, I took the liberty to disturb you without sending a greeting notice in advance. I would be a bad guest. What crime is Master Jia guilty of?"
"I came to visit Master Jia this time. I want to ask Master Jia for advice on the art of war. I hope Master Jia will not hesitate to teach me."
Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, I only have a superficial knowledge of the art of war. I'm afraid I will disappoint Your Highness."
The prince said: "Why should Master Jia be so modest? General Zhou's great victory over the Jin army was because he learned some methods of arranging troops from Master Jia."
"I came here this time to ask Master Jia for advice on military formation. I hope Master Jia will not hesitate to give me some advice."
Hearing the prince's words, Jia Huan couldn't help but sigh.
How could I ever know any tactics or formations?
These are the skills that later generations learned from visiting various military forums.
This is all the work of later generations of keyboard warriors.
Jia Huan said: "If Your Highness wants to know this, your subordinates must tell you everything they know."
After Jia Huan finished speaking, the prince immediately took out a map from his arms and spread it on the table.
When Jia Huan looked at it, he saw that this map was the terrain map of Zhou Tong's victory over the Jin Army.
The map is very detailed, and it also shows the comparison of the strength of the two sides, the process of recruiting troops, dispatching generals, arranging troops, etc.
Through this map, we can understand the details of the battle between the two sides at that time.
It has only been less than a month since the battle ended.
In such a short period of time, the prince had mastered detailed terrain maps and the troop strength and tactical data of both warring parties. The prince must have put in a lot of effort.
After careful observation, Jia Huan quickly understood Zhou Tong's method of arranging troops.
The method Zhou Tong used was indeed very similar to the strategy he used during the last war game with him.
To say that Zhou Tong learned the art of war from him would not be wronging him.
Next, the prince began to consult Jia Huan on how to use troops in this battle.
Jia Huan explained it very patiently.
After the prince understood it thoroughly, he couldn't help but sigh:
"It turns out that there is something so magical about the art of war, and the wonder of its application lies in one mind."
"Jia Master, how about next, I use General Zhou's troops and horses, and Master Zhou uses the Jin Army's troops and horses, how about we conduct a sand table deduction?"
Yes, this is applying what you have learned!
Jia Huan smiled slightly and said, "Of course it's okay, Your Highness, please."
The prince nodded and began to use Zhou Tong's troops to attack Jia Huan's Jin army.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Tong looked at his own army that had been completely wiped out on the battlefield, with a look of frustration on his face.
His own attack is obviously the same as Zhou Tong's tactics, and even better than Zhou Tong's tactics——
After all, he was reviewing the game, and there was enough time for him to optimize his tactics.
But what about Master Jia?
Before this, he didn't even know the details of the battle between Zhou Tong and the Jin Army.
However, Master Jia was able to come up with a solution in just a quarter of an hour, as Jin Jun.
It must be said that Master Jia's attainments in the art of war were completely beyond the prince's knowledge.
However, the prince still did not give up. He felt that he should be able to save it again.
He couldn't help but said to Jia Huan: "Master Jia, this time, I will use the Jin army, you will use General Zhou's Daxia army, and we will conduct another sand table deduction."
Jia Huan said happily: "Okay, I can use either side."
After that, Jia Huan used the Daxia army to launch a violent attack on Zhou Tong.
A quarter of an hour later, the Jin army was completely defeated.
According to the rules of the sand table deduction they used, if casualties exceeded 30%, it would be deemed a rout.
In Jia Huan's hands, within a quarter of an hour, the Jin army's casualties exceeded 30%.
The prince couldn't help but said: "No wonder General Zhou would say that if Master Jia is the commander-in-chief, greater results will be achieved."
"As expected, if Master Jia is the commander-in-chief, I am afraid that the Jin army will be severely defeated and even annihilated."
Jia Huan hurriedly said: "Your Highness has given you too much praise. Soldiers must observe the fate of life and death."
"On the battlefield, the situation is turbulent and changing rapidly. How can it be compared to sand table deduction?" (End of this chapter)
