Chapter 178: Collective Absenteeism
Xu Qing has reason to believe that King Xian is a pragmatic prince.
Although Xian Wang Ping is a little idle and lazy during the day, he is still unambiguous in matters of business.
For example, when the law was revised last time, or a few agricultural proverbs this time.
In the heart of the virtuous king, the law and farming and mulberry are the most important things in Da Chu, which are more important than a few lines of poetry.
This is almost also the characteristic of Great Chu, which focuses on farming and warfare, that is, farming and war.
In comparison, poetry, song and Fu are far behind the other two countries.
When it comes to Wen Dao, the most prosperous country is Zhao Guo.
Zhao Guowen was prosperous and military was declining, and his business was extremely developed. He was also the richest country among the three countries.
The literati who came out of Zhao State are generally better than Zhou State and Chu State in terms of poetry, but those who came out of Zhao State generally have low self-esteem.
Although their country is the country with the most prosperous culture and Taoism, it is also the country with the lowest status among the three countries in the Central Plains.
Because although the Zhao State is prosperous in literature and morals, Martial Dao is extremely backward. At the beginning, the emperor of Zhao State was very suspicious of the injustice of the country. He always felt that the generals who led the army would rebel. Transferred to the capital to organize and train as the imperial army, and then because the life in the capital is relatively stable and peaceful, the original frontier army's vigor has also been lost and they began to indulge in the peaceful and prosperous age...
Zhao Guo used bloody facts to prove that the prosperity of Wen Dao is useless.
Among the Three Kingdoms, Chu State, which has the strongest military power, is short of money and bullied it, and Blackmail will pay a large sum of compensation.
Zhou Guo, who was a little less powerful, also sent troops to blackmail to search for a sum of compensation when he was short of money.
If Chu State and Zhou State hadn't restrained each other and were restrained a large number of troops at the border, there would have been no such thing as Zhao State among the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains!
Who can resist bullying a little sheep who is extremely weak in force but extremely rich?
So what if Chu's culture is weak? It doesn't matter if you can fight or not!
Xu Qing can even imagine that scene:
King Xian looked at Zhou Guo and Emperor Zhao Guo contemptuously: "This king said that my poems are the best in the world, do you have any objections?"
The trembling Emperor Zhao quickly shook his head: "No objection, no objection..."
Although Emperor Zhou was very displeased with King Xian, who was almost illiterate in poetry and poetry, but thinking of the hundreds of thousands of troops of Chu State at the border, and thinking about King Xian's undefeated record, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "No! Opinion!"
Xian Wang finally looked at the two emperors with satisfaction, then picked up the microphone and began to sing: how invincible is, how lonely...
...
Ahem, yy is too much...
In short, there is only one sentence:
Weakness doesn't necessarily mean you will be beaten, it's just because daddy doesn't want to beat you today!
...
After King Xian left for a long time, Xu Qing didn't see Xiao Ruxue coming over, which was a bit strange, under normal circumstances Xiao Ruxue should have come here long ago, she usually had breakfast here in Qingxue Study.
Today, the porridge that Xu Qing cooked for Xiao Ruxue was almost cooling down, and Xiao Ruxue was still missing. I don't know what this eccentric little girl is doing again.
Since Xiao Ruxue couldn't be seen, Xu Qing decided to finish today's manuscript first, so she sent a servant to call Xiaoshi from the maid of the bookstore.
On weekdays, Xiao Ruxue mostly helped Xu Qing copy the scripts, and sometimes Xiao Ruxue didn't want to copy and Xu Qing would ask Xiaoshi to write for her.
In short, don't think Xu Qing can do it himself!
The servant came back soon, he came to Xu Qing and bowed, "Master, Xiaoshi is not here."
"Not here?" Xu Qing was stunned, a little puzzled, Xiaoshi, the maid who tidies up the counter on weekdays, is not here?
If you're not here, don't be here, maybe you don't feel well, after all, girls always have a few days a month.
Xu Qing asked again: "Then let Xiaohua come over." Xiaoshi Xiaohua is one of the few maids in the shop who can read and write. All this is due to Xu Qing's training, and also Credit to Xu Qing's laziness.
It can be said that as long as Xu Qing is diligent and diligent in copying books by himself, the maids in the bookstore will not be able to read, let alone write.
The man at the bookstore shook his head again and said, "Going back to my master, Xiao Hua is not there either..."
Hearing this, Xu Qing became a little angry. At this moment, he was already thinking about deducting their wages for a few days this month, and everyone was absent. This was clearly a blatant collective absenteeism!
Xu Qing frowned and said, "Where did they all go?"
The servant said: "I heard from the people in the bookstore that Miss Xue took them out early in the morning. I don't know why."
At this moment, the maid Xiaoru ran over, looked at Xu Qing and said, "Master, Miss Xue let you go over."
Xu Qing asked: "Where is she?"
Xiao Ru said: "Miss Xue said to ask my master to find her at the east gate, and Miss Xue said that she wanted to give you a surprise."
surprise? Xu Qing was a little strange, what kind of surprise did he have to give after leaving the city? This little girl is used to being eccentric and weird on weekdays, so she went to the east gate today.
Xu Qing felt a little strange to himself, but he was also curious about what surprise Xiao Ruxue could give him at the east gate.
...
So Xu Qing went out of the east gate of Yongzhou City under the guidance of Xiaoru, but he didn't see Xiao Ruxue. He looked at Xiaoru and asked doubtfully, "Where is she?"
Xiao Ru said: "Miss Xue and everyone are not far ahead, the master can see it after walking two steps."
Xu Qing frowned, and instinctively told him that something was wrong, but he remembered what the person at the bookstore said.
After a comprehensive calculation, Xiao Ruxue did leave the bookstore with her maid. In this case, according to Xiao Ru, Xiao Ruxue should be right in front, and she has no reason to lie to herself.
Thinking of this, Xu Qing took another two steps forward, Xiao Ru suddenly turned around to look at Xu Qing without any warning, and said in a low voice: "Boss, I'm sorry..."
After speaking, he suddenly stretched out his fist to hit Xu Qing, but Xu Qing easily blocked Xiao Ru.
Although Xiao Ru and other maids practiced with Xiao Ruxue for a few months, Xu Qing also practiced with Su Qian for half a year, and it was easy to deal with a weak woman like her.
Xu Qing easily repelled Xiao Ru with two moves.
He looked at Xiaoru coldly and said, "What do you want to do?"
At this moment, another Daoist figure appeared behind Xu Qing, it was Xiaoyue, and soon turned into two people pinching Xu Qing.
These two people were fined by Xiao Ruxue not long ago, so they couldn't lure him out with a grudge and tried to kidnap him, right?
Letting all the maids in the shop go to work together can almost achieve the goal, just the two of them? Xu Qing can beat them with one hand, okay?
Xu Qing glanced at Xiaoru and Xiaoyue and said: "If you feel wronged by being deducted from wages, you can bring it up and I will give you justice, but it is against the law for you to hurt someone with your own hands, so it's too late to regret it now."
Xiao Ru shook his head and said: "At the beginning, Miss Xue and the owner bought us on the side of the road and gave us a full meal. Even if we were not paid, we would willingly follow the owner and Miss Xue without any complaints."
Xu Qing was even more confused at this moment: "Then why did you attack me?"
It couldn't be arranged by Xiao Ruxue, could it? This is her surprise? Did she misunderstand the word surprise?
Xiaoyue said with an apologetic face: "Boss, you will soon find out that we really have no intention of harming Boss."
At this moment, Xu Qing suddenly felt an extremely fast attack from behind hit him on the back of the neck, and then Xu Qing's eyes went dark and he lost consciousness.
Its speed is swift and its power is just right, which is not the strength that those ordinary maids in bookstores can possess.
