Of course Gao Pragmatic is concerned about the situation in Siam. The conversation he just had with Gao Wuqin was just to test his younger brother. In fact, the development of the situation in Siam has been under his close attention. The main part came from the internal affairs of Beijing. The other part comes from Huang Zhiting’s letters and reports from Ruan Huang and others.
But compared to the situation in Siam, he was actually more concerned about Huang Zhiting's physical condition. Although Huang Zhiting has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and has performed well in all aspects of her body, pregnancy is sometimes not absolutely related to her health.
Before Gao Pragmatic Time Travel, many lesbians in the work unit had very different behaviors during pregnancy. Some people were usually in good health, but had severe reactions during pregnancy; some people were not usually in good health, but had almost no symptoms. Reactions during pregnancy. Among those who had pregnancy-related reactions, the degree of reaction varied widely. Some only experienced nausea occasionally, while others vomited to the point where one suspected that she would vomit out all the gall.
What made Gao Pragmatic relax a little now was probably that Huang Zhiting's reaction didn't seem to be big, and she didn't even show signs of morning sickness in public, she just became very lethargic.
According to Gao Pragmatic's understanding at that time, pregnant women's sleepiness should be a very common early pregnancy reaction. However, because each expectant mother has different physical constitution, living habits and eating habits, the severity of the sleepiness reaction is also different. According to the current situation, Huang Zhiting's sleepiness should still be within the normal range.
However, Gao Pragmatic did not dare to be careless. When he wrote to inquire about the situation in Siam for the first time, he asked Huang Zhiting if she could leave and return to Beijing to raise the baby. However, Huang Zhiting declined politely - the reason was that she believed that now was the time to take advantage of the big baby. At the critical moment when Sheng Zhiwei was fully consolidating Jinghua's position in the Kingdom of Siam, she had already determined a package of plans to eliminate the opposition parties, so she could not leave Siam at this moment.
Not only is she unable to leave, she even hopes that Gao Pragmatic will send her one or two right-hand assistants to control some important powers in Siam. The advisory group of the Jinghua Group that suppressed the Siamese royal family in the treaty is still there. In the process of formation, she needs people.
When Gao Pingshi read the letter and saw this, his first reaction was that he needed to find a Cen Ling-like person to be responsible for extinguishing certain sparks. Unexpectedly, Huang Zhiting recommended one in the subsequent letter, but this Gao Pragmatic was quite surprised by the choice of candidate.
Huang Zhiting recommended Liu Xin.
This makes Gao pragmatic a little difficult to understand.
There seems to be no problem with Liu Xin's ability at present. This can be confirmed by her rapid elimination of the two rebel armies in the south and east of Siam. However... Zhiting seemed to have considered her a love rival before, so why did she suddenly do so now? Such a big change? Is there anything in this that I don't know yet?
However, after Gao Pragmatic carefully looked at Huang Zhiting's reasons for recommendation, he actually agreed with her statement. She believed that Liu Xin was "well-read and knowledgeable" and "familiar with the army and has no worries", so she must be the best candidate.
Use Liu Xin as the second Cen Ling? Gao Pragmatic felt that he had a strong sense of being unreal, because according to his understanding, he actually believed that Liu Xin was more suitable to be a mining development consultant...
The objective fact that they are both time travelers makes Gao Pragmatic's attitude towards Liu Xin very special. To a certain extent, he regards Liu Xin as a confidant who does not communicate often, and may be regarded as the kind of "good friend" who does not need to face each other face to face. Therefore, he is also very tolerant of Liu Xin and will not force her to do anything. thing.
But Huang Zhiting's recommendation cannot be unilaterally mentioned directly to herself. Before making the recommendation to herself, she must have had in-depth communication with Liu Xin, and Liu Xin must also agree with her recommendation.
This is a bit head-scratching.
Overall, Cen Ling's errand was not a good one, otherwise he would not have been nicknamed "King Cen of Hell" by the Annan people. If Liu Xin had accepted this kind of job, at least in the minds of contemporary Siamese people, her image would have been extremely vicious. And given that she was a woman, some of the verbal curses might have been even more vicious.
Gao Pragmatic neither believed nor cared about verbal curses. Liu Xin, like him, came from the Red Dynasty and probably wouldn't believe it either. But to say "don't care", that was not necessarily the case.
The reason why Gao Pragmatic doesn't care is because he was a grassroots cadre in his previous life. One characteristic of grassroots cadres is that once things are done, people think that is what you should do. If something goes wrong, or if you don't think carefully, it goes without saying that all kinds of curses will come in waves. .
So Gao Pragmatic doesn't care. In fact, he is just used to being scolded.
However, Liu Xin had just graduated before she traveled through time and was still in the process of interning. Gao Pragmatic estimated that she might not have the psychological quality to do anything she wants, and she might be very angry at the abuse and curses from the Siamese people.
This is something Gao pragmatism does not want to see.
But why did Liu Xin agree? Did she not expect this, or was there some other reason?
Gao Wuzhen still has no way of knowing all this, but he has noticed one of the reasons why Huang Zhiting recommended Liu Xin: no worries.
This sentence seems to have some intention... Does this imply that Liu Xin doesn't care about what Siamese people think of her?
Gao pragmatically tapped the fingers of his right hand on the table in turn and began to ponder.
To say that Liu Xin doesn't care about the opinions of others - especially the Siamese - is a pragmatic thing to believe. No matter how long a time traveler has been in this era, there will still be some subconscious feeling in his heart that "I am different from you."
"I" is different from "you". The most direct consequence of this subconsciousness is of course that you don't care about other people's opinions. At most, you only care about the people around you.
At this point, even Gao Pragmatic himself cannot avoid it. Even though he usually seems to care about what others think of him, if you think about it carefully, you will find that all he cares about is his own reputation, because reputation is a "need for reform" for him.
It can be seen that his so-called "care about other people's opinions" actually only cares about whether his own ideals can be realized.
So, has the communication between Huang Zhiting and Liu Xin actually reached this level? What on earth did they talk about?
Puzzled, Gao pragmatically decided to follow Huang Zhiting's wishes for the time being. He took the private seal he used internally in Jinghua and wrote a letter of employment in his own handwriting, hiring Liu Xin as the head of the Jinghua Group in the Kingdom of Siam. Chief Distinguished Advisor of the Advisory Group.
There was a small blank space on the employment certificate for filling in annual salary and other benefits - Gao Pragmatic planned to let Liu Xin fill it in by herself. He believed that Liu Xin's attitude towards him was also the most special and it was impossible for him to mess around.
Of course, to say the least, it's useless to mess around... Who can control Jinghua in Siam nowadays?
Huang Zhiting's request was easy to handle, but Gao Pragmatic was still a little bit worried about her not being able to return to Beijing to give birth. Although it is common for officials these days not to see their children born, Gao Pragmatic is worried that the postpartum depression she may suffer after giving birth in the future will not be cured, and secondly, she is particularly worried about the safety of childbirth in this era - regardless of Is it for herself or the child in her belly.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, so he simply opened the side curtain of the green sedan and said to a knight: "Send two people to Mr. Binhu and ask him to recommend some outstanding gynecological disciples. I will Send him to Siam to take care of his wife, it would be even better if she is a female disciple."
The servant hurriedly agreed, and while arranging for someone to go back to Xinzhai to inform Li Shizhen, he was wondering in his mind: Since the wife has to be taken care of, she must be a female student from the Department of Medicine. Why does the master think that a man can do this?
Of course, he didn’t know that there were male doctors in obstetrics and gynecology in later generations. Even when a woman gave birth, there were often male medical staff in the delivery room. Gao Pragmatic didn’t mind this at all—doctors did not distinguish between men and women, and safety was the key. is the first priority.
However, when the news reached Li Shizhen, Li Shizhen did not dare to ignore Gao's pragmatic mood. You must know that under normal circumstances these days, the person responsible for delivering babies is not a doctor, but a midwife. The reason is that there are differences between men and women, so he did not dare to choose The male disciple went to Siam so as not to offend Gao Pragmatic and bury his ideal of promoting medical skills - this is very simple, Jinghua will withdraw funds and leave it alone.
So since the first child of his boss was about to be born, Li Shizhen had to cheer up. Not only did he recruit four of his most recognized female disciples among the current students in the Department of Medicine, but he also sent them to other places in Beijing over the past few years. The female disciples of the Great Medicine Hall carefully examined the situation in their minds and selected one person as the "leader" to be transferred back to the capital, ready to go to Siam at any time according to the master's orders.
Gao Jingshi returned to Baiyulou on duty, and first gave Gao Wuqin a cleansing banquet. Most of the brothers and relatives of the Gao family in Beijing came, and even a few juniors.
From this dust-cleansing banquet, it can be seen that the sixth branch of the Gao family is really "in power" now. Even Gao Jingshi's cousins do not dare to sit on Gao Jingshi's seat and must let him take the top spot.
However, the atmosphere during the banquet was not bad, especially when they heard that Gao Wuqin was in charge of the six towns of Annan alone, Gao Wuben, who was already in charge of Jinyiweinan Town Fusi, made a rare joke, saying that Gao Wuqin was no longer as good as One soldier was too late to prepare, so he jokingly called him "High Observer".
Although Gao Wuqin was only average at the moment, he complimented Gao Wuben in return, saying "Gao Nansi" in his mouth, and the entire banquet was in a harmonious atmosphere.
Gao Pragmatic felt a little emotional, how could the Gao family in history have such a scene now? Gao Yongshi, who had not been transported by himself, later got into a fight with his brother Gao Wuguan over family property. The two brothers fought bitterly for the mere three thousand acres of land left by Gao Gong, and they almost lost all the Gao family. face.
Fortunately, I have my own little wings in this life, and it seems that there will be no need to fight for family property. On the contrary, although Gao Wuguan was adopted by Gao Gong, Gao Gong only had a small amount of property in total. Therefore, Gao Wuguan was actually "losing" now - after all, his eldest brother was now the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, and even his younger brother was already in trouble. He is almost the same as a soldier, but he is still just the Shaoqing of Shangbaosi, with rank but no power.
Gao pragmatically wanted to ask Gao Wuguan if he was interested in "going into business", but thinking that now didn't seem like a good time, he decided against it.
After the banquet, Gao Pingshi returned to his bedroom smelling of alcohol. Looking at the empty super luxurious master bedroom, he suddenly felt a little disappointed.
The hostess had to leave after only staying here for a few months, which really made this large bedroom feel like a "hero with no place to play". No wonder Huang Zhiting told him to take in her maid as a dowry before she left. Now it seems that she was really prescient.
However, Gao Pragmatic quickly put aside this thought of taking advantage of the drunkenness and forced himself to focus on thinking about the next step for Siam or, to a greater extent, southern Xinjiang.
This time among the three rebel armies in Siam, the easternmost one is entrenched in Angkor.
Angkor is the location of the famous Angkor Wat in later generations. Angkor Wat, also known as Angkor Temple, and later known as Cambodia's national treasure, is the largest temple-like building in the world and the earliest Khmer-style building in the world.
The original name of Angkor Wat is VrahVishnulok, which means "Vishnu's Temple". Ancient Chinese Buddhist books call it "Sangxiang Buddha House". It was built to worship Vishnu when Suryavarman II (reigned 1113-1150), and it took more than thirty years to complete.
This rebel army was caught off guard in Angkor by Liu Xin, who descended from the sky, and quickly failed. However, precisely because they were defeated so quickly, many things were not destroyed in time, so there is a batch of evidence of their collusion with the Cambodians. Then it fell into Liu Xin's hands.
Of course, Liu Xin handed over these evidences to Huang Zhiting, and Huang Zhiting wrote a letter to inform Gao Pragmatic. The meaning was obvious: Can we start thinking about solving the Cambodian problem?
Hmm... I need to consider it.
In today's Indochina, apart from the Portuguese-occupied kingdoms of Malacca and Johor in the southern part of the Malay Peninsula, only Cambodia is left that has not been brought under the actual control of Beijing.
According to the highly pragmatic Nanyang strategy, as long as we get Cambodia next, it should be said that half of the battle is done.
But now, the Cambodians took the initiative to send them the reasons for intervention. It was really typical of someone to send pillows as soon as they fell asleep. Gao Pragmatic just wanted to give them a thumbs up.
However, as to whether Cambodia should fight this issue now, Gao Pragmatic feels that it is better to be cautious. It's not that Cambodia alone can make him feel troublesome, but he is a little worried that if he takes Cambodia now, it might end up like Siam again. At that time, everything seemed to have settled, but in fact, under the ice and snow, It's a volcano about to erupt.
Of course, this volcano may be available whenever you go to get it, but it will always be there. It is better to get it after Siam has been digested than to get it now. Although the various branches of the garrison are extremely powerful in southern Xinjiang, they are also the most powerful. It is best not to fight continuously with high intensity.
Come on, let's wait for another year or two. It's still early anyway, so there's no need to rush.
