Chapter 150 Military Training Methods
Not long after Ying Wuyou entered Zhangtai Palace, a tall, fair-skinned eunuch led a group of people in. Ying Wuyou looked closely and recognized the eunuch as Fu De, who had succeeded Zhao Gao. Fu De, with a beaming smile, quickly walked up to Ying Wuyou, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Princess Jiayang! These people were specially sent to you by His Majesty."
Ying Wuyou raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and replied softly, "Thank you for your trouble, Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office."
Fu De hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Your Highness is too kind. It is my honor to serve you. Now that the person has been safely delivered, if Your Highness has nothing else, I will take my leave now." After saying that, he bowed to Ying Wuyou again.
Ying Wuyou nodded slightly and said, "Please make yourself at the Imperial Carriage Office."
After Fude turned and left, Ying Wuyou turned her gaze to the dozens of alchemists standing in the courtyard. After a moment's thought, she turned to her guard Lin Qi and instructed, "Take these people to the estate and hand them over to Xu Fu. Let Xu Fu assign them suitable tasks based on their respective expertise."
Lin Qi clasped his hands in greeting and replied, "Yes, Your Highness. Please rest assured, I will not fail in my mission." After saying this, he led the group of alchemists away from Zhangtai Palace and headed towards the direction of the manor.
Watching the figures gradually disappear from sight, Ying Wuyou slowly turned around and walked back into the house with light steps. As soon as she entered the house, she couldn't wait to summon the system to help her find relevant information, while she herself began to sort out and integrate the army's training methods.
Time flies, and before she knew it, night had quietly fallen. The once bright sky outside the window was gradually swallowed by darkness, but Ying Wuyou remained oblivious, still engrossed in writing at her desk. A full hour passed before she finally put down her pen, looked up at the pitch-black night outside the window, stretched, put down her pen, got up to wash quickly, climbed into bed, and soon drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, the soft, warm sunlight, like a golden veil, filtered through the gaps in the carved window lattice, gently illuminating Ying Wuyou's porcelain-white face. These rays of light, like gentle hands, softly caressed her cheeks, slowly waking her from her sweet slumber.
Ying Wuyou slowly woke up, her eyes still sleepy. She subconsciously rubbed her eyes with both hands, trying to dispel the lingering drowsiness. Then, she rolled out of bed.
After a quick wash, Ying Wuyou sat down at her desk and once again threw herself into writing the military training methods she hadn't finished the day before. Sometimes she would furrow her brow, deep in thought; other times she would write furiously, her thoughts flowing freely.
Cui'er watched her princess quietly, her heart filled with both tenderness and pride. Although still young, the princess had already achieved remarkable feats of valor through her extraordinary wisdom and courage. However, at the same time, the princess's life was exceptionally busy, with all sorts of complex matters requiring her personal attention. Cui'er couldn't help but marvel at how truly remarkable her princess was!
Thinking about all this, Cui'er silently picked up some carefully prepared delicate snacks and cool tea, and walked lightly to Ying Wuyou's side. But at this moment, Ying Wuyou was completely immersed in her own world of thought, oblivious to everything around her. Cui'er sighed helplessly, carefully placed the food on the table, and then quietly turned and left, not wanting to disturb the princess who was completely absorbed in her thoughts.
Meanwhile, in the Qin palace, after concluding the morning court session, the King of Qin immediately convened a meeting with his ministers. After a heated discussion, they reached a consensus. Subsequently, the King of Qin decisively dispatched envoys with invitation letters, who rushed to the three states of Qi, Chu, and Wei without delay.
The King of Qin decided to announce throughout the Qin state the good news that Qin would jointly establish an economic zone with Qi, Chu, and Wei. Immediately, from the palace to the marketplace, from officials to commoners, everyone was overjoyed.
When ordinary people heard that the Qin state was about to cease hostilities and join hands with the Qi, Chu, and Wei states to establish an economic zone for common development, everyone's face revealed an undisguised joy. People spread the news rapidly, and a joyful atmosphere permeated the streets and alleys. Some were genuinely happy for the prospect of peace and prosperity for the country; others began to envision an improved and more affluent future.
At this time, Xianyang City was as bustling as ever. Wang Liujin was standing on the street selling the various kinds of game he had caught, while Tian Xiaowei was selling her exquisitely woven bamboo baskets not far away. Over the past year, Wang Liujin and Tian Xiaowei had been seeing each other quite frequently. With increased contact, an indescribable feeling gradually developed between them, as if something called love was taking root and sprouting in their hearts.
Wang Liujin seemed to be having exceptionally good luck today; the game he brought quickly sold out. He happily packed up his stall and jogged over to Tian Xiaowei. He noticed that Tian Xiaowei still had some unsold bamboo baskets, but Wang Liujin didn't care. Instead, he excitedly asked, "Xiaowei, I heard that the King is planning a truce. Have you heard about this?"
Tian Xiaowei's lips curled into a bright smile, and she replied sweetly, "Of course! This matter is all the rage in Xianyang City now, everyone knows about it. It's undoubtedly a wonderful thing!"
Wang Liujin, standing to the side, nodded repeatedly and chimed in, "That's right, but what exactly is this so-called economic zone? I really don't know."
Tian Xiaowei shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know either, but then added, "In any case, a ceasefire is a very good thing. In this way, we can live a few years of peace and stability."
Wang Liujin wholeheartedly agreed, saying, "That's absolutely right! Xiaowei, now that the situation has stabilized, why don't we take this opportunity to get married?"
After speaking, he looked at Tian Xiaowei expectantly. A shy blush instantly rose on Tian Xiaowei's cheeks, as beautiful and delicate as a ripe apple. She nodded slightly and softly replied, "Mmm..."
Seeing Tian Xiaowei nod in agreement, Wang Liujin was overjoyed and exclaimed excitedly, "Xiaowei, you actually agreed! That's wonderful! I'll go home right away and ask a matchmaker to formally propose marriage to you."
Tian Xiaowei smiled and nodded gently, saying, "Okay, Brother Liu Jin. After we get married, why don't we think about what kind of business to start so that our future will be more prosperous?"
Wang Liujin frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "I've been wandering around Xianyang City for many days, but I haven't been able to find a satisfactory way to make a living. However, this time our Great Qin is going to jointly build an economic zone with the states of Chu, Qi, and Wei. In my opinion, this might mean that we can sell all kinds of goods from our Great Qin to those countries!"
After hearing this, Tian Xiaowei nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, that's very likely. In that case, we certainly can't miss such a great opportunity."
Wang Liujin nodded in deep agreement and said, "That's right, you've thought things through very well. Well, it seems that these goods will be difficult to sell all today. Xiaowei, let's go home first. You wait patiently, and tomorrow I will personally go to your house to propose marriage."
Upon hearing this, Tian Xiaowei's cheeks instantly flushed crimson, and she replied with a shy smile, "Okay." After speaking, the two smiled at each other, then turned and left the bustling market together, walking slowly towards the outskirts of Xianyang City with light steps.
