In order to avoid being blocked in his trip to Jingzhou, Liu Chan now strives to be a good student every day, but the price is that he has almost no time for free activities during the day.
When he arrived at the shanty town, it was almost dinner time.
At this time, people eat dinner early and only eat two meals a day, breakfast and dinner.
After eating in the morning, I go to start the day's work, and I stay busy until I return home in the evening.
I haven't been able to come here in person for a long time, so today I wanted to come and see how they live.
In the small town outside the big city, smoke rises from every house, making it look full of fireworks.
As I got closer, the aroma of cooking porridge wafted far away.
"Prince." The two reserve soldiers who were on duty here today bowed and saluted Liu Chan.
Liu Chan asked Lao Luo and others who were following him to stay outside, and walked into the shantytown alone.
"Look at the gun! Hey!"
The sudden shout made Liu Chan think someone was fighting here.
Fighting in the street was his own naughty behavior in the past, and he wanted to see who else was so bold.
Looking around, it turned out to be a group of children playing with broken branches.
"You've been stabbed, it's time to fall to the ground!"
"Obviously you were stabbed by me first!"
Liu Chan walked over with great interest: "What are you playing? Take me with you?"
The oldest child is about six or seven years old: "We are not playing, we are practicing marksmanship!"
"Oh? Then stab it and show me."
The kid seemed to realize that Liu Chan was not an ordinary person in his brocade robe, so he stabbed him obediently.
What surprised Liu Chan was that his stab was actually quite interesting.
Although the movements are very non-standard, let alone the accuracy of the strength, he is still a child after all.
But it can still be seen that this is the simple spear move he taught his soldiers.
"Not bad, not bad. If you exert your strength like this and stab it out like this..." Liu Chan led him hand in hand and stabbed him, "Look, it will be better, right?"
"Wow! You're so powerful!" Several children immediately became excited and started stabbing in imitation of others.
Liu Chan smiled and looked at it with his hands, and asked: "But why do you want to learn this?"
"We will also join the army and kill the enemy in the future!"
"Why?"
The child chuckled: "You are so powerful, but you don't even know this."
Liu Chan squatted down and said cheerfully: "I would like to hear the details."
"Those who join the army are heroes and can make everyone live a good life!"
"Yes, and being a prince will bring you more money and food."
"Also, suck--and farm cattle!" A tiger-headed little guy sniffed and added seriously.
The six or seven-year-old child asked again: "What's your name? I've never seen you before. Will you come again to teach us how to practice guns?"
Liu Chan touched his head: "My name is Liu Chan. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it if I get busy in the future... But if you really want to learn, I can find someone to teach you in the future."
But what he didn't expect was that the moment he said the word "Liu Chan", the expressions of several children immediately changed.
The previous closeness disappeared without a trace, and now his face was red and full of anger.
"How dare you use the prince's name!"
Liu Chan was a little speechless: "...I have been using this name for thirteen years. Well, I am the prince you call me."
"You still dare to pretend to be the prince! He is a bad guy, beat him!" After saying this, several children held up branches and were about to test the newly learned moves on Liu Chan.
I blanch!
Liu Chan stood up quickly, dodging in a circle, and said, "How do you know I'm not the prince?"
"The prince is busy with many important things, how can he have time to come here and play with us!"
Liu Chan: "..."
What's bad, what he said makes sense, and he can't refute it.
I'm really sorry that I have so much free time.
"What are you doing?" came a familiar voice. Liu Chan looked up and saw that it was Guan Yinping.
"Princess?" When she saw Liu Chan, she immediately smiled naturally on her face, and her eyes seemed to light up.
"Sister Yinping, hit him quickly, he is pretending to be the prince!" Several children seemed to have finally found someone to support them, and they gathered around him.
Guan Yinping looked over in shock. Liu Chan spread his hands and looked innocent: "I told you, but they didn't believe it."
Miss Guan San smiled helplessly: "Sister Yinping can't beat him."
Several children were shocked. How could this little thief be so powerful? !
"Besides, he is indeed the prince."
"Ah?" The children looked at Liu Chan blankly.
The smaller child who was still sniffling suddenly started crying.
"What's wrong, why are you crying?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
"What's your father's name?"
"Hu, suck - Hu Li."
Liu Chan was happy: "Don't be afraid, if your father dares to spank you, I will spank him twice."
…
Later, Liu Chan learned some information from Guan Yinping. Everyone was living a good life, and it can be said that they were very satisfied.
Although the diet is generally porridge and pickles, meat can only be eaten by the elite and the upper class. This is limited by the current productivity, and Liu Chan cannot change it for a while.
But people are already satisfied.
Compared with what I ate before, there was porridge and pickles. Every meal was full. What more could you want?
And this place is self-contained, like a paradise.
There is no oppression by powerful people, no bullies running rampant, and no gangsters committing crimes. It is as beautiful as a dream. Everyone is afraid that one day they will wake up and go back to the way they were in the past, so they work extra hard.
That day, a long line of cars came carrying copper coins and cloth, followed by ten cattle, which were said to be rewards for meritorious service in the Hanzhong competition.
That scene once again shocked and stimulated everyone. Those who had not been able to join the army were extremely regretful, so they planned to start from childhood and let their sons join the army in the future.
Some people had received enough rewards to move to Chengdu, but no one was willing to leave.
Liu Chan and Liu Chan were chatting. More and more people knew that Liu Chan was here. Many people came spontaneously to bow down and express their gratitude. They were even moved to tears, and gradually started to block the road...
Prince Liu had no choice but to excuse himself as he had something important to do and ran out of the crowd in embarrassment.
Sometimes it’s too popular and it’s not convenient.
…
When we returned to Da Sima's Mansion, it was already dark.
After becoming a prince, I always felt that there was not enough time.
Fortunately, I prepared early, and many tasks did not require my own personal direction, and they had already begun to be carried out in an orderly manner.
Despite this, Liu Chan still felt that it would be great if he could have a few more capable helpers.
Talent is always the top priority.
If it hadn't been for the decline of talents in the late Ji Han Dynasty, Uncle Zhuge would not have become ill from overwork and died on the Northern Expedition.
"Uncle Zhuge, what are you busy with?"
Zhuge Liang, who was still crouching in front of the desk, looked up and saw Liu Chan. He stood up and saluted with a smile: "Prince."
Liu Chan was a little helpless: "How can a master salute his disciples?"
Zhuge Liang gently shook his feather fan and said with a smile: "Being a monarch and a minister, etiquette cannot be discarded."
He has always been like this, talking about different things, and Liu Chan knew that it would be useless to say more.
"what are you busy with?"
Didn’t you hand over all major matters to Fazheng and Lao Liu? Why haven't you gone home yet?
"The prince came just in time." Zhuge Liang smiled and took the thing he had just drawn. "Liang has learned a lot from studying military formations recently, so he drew a formation diagram. I think it will be helpful to the prince."
Liu Chan took it and took a look, and it turned out to be a schematic diagram of the formation of troops...
