Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

Zheng Ling, who came hand in hand with Wang Ke, looked at Zheng Tai thoughtfully when she heard Zheng Tai's frank words.

"You don't have to look at me like that. If you talk about it in a roundabout way, it's something you only play when you're arguing with other families. If you discuss it with you, you'll go around too much. If you don't understand, it will create new problems, so it's better to It's simpler." Zheng Tai explained calmly, as if he saw the confusion in Zheng Ling's eyes.

"I know the resentment in your heart, but compared to the news passed on by the family, the more resentment must have stirred up some memories of yours?" Zheng Tai looked at Zheng Ling and spoke with some memories. Said, and then before Zheng Ling could speak, Zheng Tai continued, "But the family exists like this. If you gain the family's interests, you have to bear the family's responsibilities."

"There is only one legitimate son in each house. There is no special reason. It is just to stabilize the inheritance and reduce internal friction. The legitimate daughter marries other families for marriage and stabilizes the relationship with other families. This has always been the case." Zheng Tai put his hands on his sleeves , looking at Zheng Ling with some calmness, "You can say that this kind of thing suppresses human nature, but from a family level, this really reduces internal friction."

Why is there a primogeniture inheritance system? Because other systems will cause great internal friction. Unless a certain heir is really so strong that others can no longer suppress it, then it doesn’t matter whether there is inheritance or not, because if he is so strong that At this level, if you want to inherit, you can't stop me. If I don't want to inherit, that's all I can do.

"So I should be married off and become a maid?" Zheng Ling said with a gloomy face.

"This is the inevitable fate of ordinary concubines. Recall what the world has been like for more than 20 years. Your misery is the same as the misery of selling sons and daughters, exchanging children for food. At least the Zheng family has not lost a mouthful of food for you." Zheng Tai was very calm when he said this, because this is the rule of running the family, eat what I have, drink what I have, then when it’s time to use you, don’t say anything like “I’m going to die”.

"But fate is doomed just because of birth? Isn't it too cruel?" Zheng Ling looked at Zheng Tai with cold eyes and asked. She could not deny the reality of what Zheng Tai said, but for a person who paid attention to it when he was seven or eight years old, At the end of his life, he actually went to another family as a dowry for his legitimate daughter. If he was lucky, he would be a concubine. If he was unlucky, he would be a maid who didn't even have the identity to marry into another family.

If you don’t feel resentful, you’ve seen a ghost!

When she was ten years old and saw the ceremonial guard of the Zheng family's mistress when she went out, Zheng Ling's resentment was filled with anger. Damn it, she was born to stand in the sky, right?

"For us, it's not cruel. For you, it's cruel. But when you stand opposite me and ask this question, it doesn't matter whether it's cruel or not. You already are." Zheng Tai's character is actually He was not very rigid, and even somewhat gentle, so when he said this, the look on his face actually made Wang Ke feel humiliated.

For Wang Ke, what do you mean by this? When he said this, he was still laughing.

Zheng Ling reached out to hold Wang Ke. She could feel Wang Ke's anger, but she knew very well that Zheng Tai really didn't mean it this time. This was the case for the head of the family.

"Don't be too angry." Zheng Tai saw Zheng Ling holding Wang Ke, and with a slight movement of his mind, he understood why Wang Ke was angry, so he calmed down his expression and tried his best to explain to Wang Ke with the look of an old-fashioned middle-aged man, but this This explanation did not suppress Wang Ke's anger at all.

I always feel like this guy is actually humiliating him!

"Zheng Ling, to be honest, I'm surprised that you can stand in front of me so openly. Compared with those weird families, the Zheng family is not a very powerful family, but the Zheng family is undoubtedly also a strong family. "Di Jun Wang, one of the few families in the world, you can stand in front of me and ask me why, and I still give an explanation. To be honest, it's amazing," Zheng Tai said with a bit of emotion, not angry. , or can't afford to lose, and even somewhat optimistic about Zheng Ling and Wang Ke.

If in the past, the reason for looking up to Wang Ke was because Li You stood looming behind Wang Ke, now Zheng Tai really takes this couple seriously.

Zheng Ling was a little angry when she heard this, but as Zheng Tai speculated, Zheng Ling was undoubtedly a rational person and not crazy, so even though these words made Zheng Ling feel angry, but Zheng Ling Ling still did not refute, because what she said was not wrong.

After arriving in Central Asia, Zheng Ling could feel the true power of the Zheng family. The Hu family's daughter and An Ding laughed at how the Hu family had become like this. The Zhao family's daughter felt that her construction was really average, and Zheng Ling had gone through all the way. When passing by, you can see how much of the Zheng family's fiefdom is inferior to other families, but overall, compared with those super wealthy families, the Zheng family's fiefdom has its own advantages.

After integrating the knowledge Zheng Xuan taught her, Zheng Ling actually knew very well what it takes to run a country and build a bureaucracy. Even the most basic thing requires someone to manage internal affairs, one to manage government affairs, one to manage officials, and one to manage government affairs. A simple team in charge of financial operations, a middle-level structure composed of dozens of people, and a large number of people who can sink to the bottom.

This is the key to the complete operation of a feudal country. As long as this system is established, the country will actually be stable and have a complete organization for confrontation. As for the army, when this framework system is completed, this team Naturally, we will establish the power to protect ourselves. After all, we are all adults, and we cannot trust our lives and safety to others.

Zheng Ling came all the way from the Cui family and the Yang family in the north. There are no more than two families that can completely establish this organization, and the Zheng family is one of them. This means that the Zheng family is not a prominent family. The real power of the family, which is not revealed, is in the top ten.

"Blood and connections will not make you hereditary." Zheng Ling lowered her eyebrows and nodded, but her words were not very polite.

"But in fact we have been doing this for thousands of years." Zheng Tai retorted equally unceremoniously, and Zheng Ling was confused. The facts are sometimes unreasonable.

Seeing his wife suddenly shut up, Wang Ke was a little angry, and then patted the back of his hand. He had not been ready to speak. Wang Ke, who was here to protect his wife, suddenly said, "After thousands of years of hereditary succession, why don't you see Ying today?" The largest and most powerful family named Zhao?"

Zheng Tai looked at Wang Ke and was silent for a while.

"What are you talking about about blood and connections? If this thing really works, how can dynasties rise and fall?" Wang Ke said with a sneer. Although he didn't learn much, even reading and literacy were taught by his wife, but he was just reckless. I don’t believe this at all. Damn it, your ancestors were from a wealthy family? My ancestors were rebels, who is better than the other? I specialize in killing guys like you, and so do my ancestors!

Zheng Tai looked at Wang Ke, and then nodded. Countless thoughts came to his mind, and he even understood why that guy Chen Xi had to let aristocratic families marry concubines who had gone to school to these guys with reckless backgrounds. There is a wildness about it.

"You have indeed found a good husband." Zheng Tai said calmly. He was not embarrassed by Wang Ke's words. This is a fact in itself. There is no point in refuting the facts, not to mention the thousand-year lineage and the prosperity of the wealthy family. There are quite a few that have been lost in history, which is so normal.

"Humph." Zheng Ling groaned.

"You are indeed qualified to reconcile with the Zheng family." Zheng Tai said calmly, then clapped his hands, and someone came over with a plate with several things on it.

"How about I use these to reconcile with you? I think your grievances have come out. By now, your vision and perspective should have been reached, and you can see a lot of things." Zheng Tai first looked at Wang Ke, and then at Zheng Ling He said, "Your behavior is at most disgusting to the Zheng family. If you want to go further, you are not enough now. It is not a question of whether your husband is strong or not, but that you are not smart enough."

Zheng Ling didn't say anything, but what Zheng Tai said was true. The Zheng family has established a complete bureaucracy. This feudal country can continue for a long time without being attacked by outsiders. Now she is making trouble. The incident is a scandal for the Zheng family, but if the Zheng family is replaced by the royal family, the scandal within the royal family will not affect the smooth operation of the country as long as there are no problems in the bureaucracy.

In other words, what Zheng Ling is doing now cannot actually harm the Zheng family.

"What are these?" Wang Ke asked. If Zheng Ling is willing to make trouble, he can go with her. Anyway, it's okay. He's not afraid of the Zheng family. The worst he can do is run back. The Zheng family is so awesome that they can come and deal with him. He Wang Ke It’s also very cool! Although they can't be awesome in the Zheng family's territory now, what can the Zheng family do in Wang Ke's territory? But now that Zheng Ling didn't speak, Wang Ke understood.

"This thing is an injection developed by the Zheng family. It can open up the inside and outside without any improvement." Zheng Tai explained very plainly, "This thing is considered a secret magic spirit. It was obtained from other families. It can be used as a template to use various internal A commonly used posture for Qi separation, this is a special set of injections to enhance physical fitness, which can completely improve a person's physical fitness in all aspects by 30%, and it takes about four months."

Wang Ke's pupils shrank when he heard this. Compared to the three heads of Han Baichen's family who were not very down-to-earth, he understood what this set of things was used for better than those three things.

Opening up the inside and outside without any improvement means that the body has not been rendered by the essence of heaven and earth. It is said that the inner energy is separated from the body, which is more equivalent to practicing Qi into a gang, but it also means that the talent of smelting will not be affected by your promotion. And collapse occurs.

This effect alone is enough to defy the heavens. The reason why the smelting collapsed is not because the physical quality has improved rapidly, causing the smelting talent to be unable to keep up, and it can only disintegrate in the end. But with this kind of physical quality that does not improve at all As for the promotion method, you can grind it slowly.

It is true that veterans who can get high-level smelting skills can't achieve internal gas separation level smelting.

Take Jiang Guang as an example. A monster like Jiang Guang can survive the smelting at the level of inner Qi leaving the body. However, the speed at which the inner Qi separates from the body and the rendering of the essence of heaven and earth brought by it will greatly improve itself. At the same time, the quality will also be broken down if the smelting cannot keep up with the progress, which will lead to a blank slate once promoted.

In addition, the internal energy leaving the body represents the independence of the will level, and the feedback of the collective will of smelting is basically the opposite. This directly leads to the whiteboard's internal energy leaving the body to be re-smelted. The difficulty is too outrageous, unless it is The kind that has completely transformed a certain talent into instinct, otherwise there is basically no need to count on it.

But what Zheng Tai came up with was outrageous. It didn't improve the combat effectiveness at all. It just completed the change of the internal energy leaving the body. In other words, after normal Qi training, he would gain 50 points of combat effectiveness, and then forcibly break through the internal energy separation to complete the rendering. After that, the combat power soared directly to 500, causing many gadgets to be destroyed without any way to upgrade, but Zheng Tai's went from 50 to 51...

There is no doubt that it is the weakest form of internal energy separation, even worse than Diao Chan. Diao Chan has at least two to three hundred combat power.

But this thing means steady progress. From 50 to 500, the original smelting will definitely not be able to keep up with the progress and will completely collapse. But from 50 to 51, the original smelting will only need to be slightly strengthened to keep up with the progress, and then follow The growth of individual strength is gradually strengthened.

In this way, one step at a time, when the combat power reaches the true node of five hundred, where the inner energy is separated from the body, the talent smelting will also follow suit.

The inner energy separated from the body by triple smelting, what kind of god is this? All the inner energy separated from the body at the same level must be killed indiscriminately, at least it is Lu Bu.

Oh, not counting Lu Bu. When Lu Bu raises his hand, it explodes at 200%, and the internal energy separated from the body by triple smelting is only 150%. It seems to be only Guan Yu level...

"You should understand the preciousness of this thing better than me." Zheng Tai looked at Wang Ke and said, this is the gag. Although a certain research of his own has failed, the product of this failure may not be better than what they want. Things are more awesome, at least you can tell by looking at Wang Ke's expression.

"I understand." Wang Ke looked at Zheng Tai and said, "But how can I determine the authenticity of this thing and its side effects?"

Wang Ke didn't mention the next two gadgets. Wang Ke didn't need the template for the secret magic spirit to control the internal energy leaving the body. The special potion that strengthened the physical fitness by 30% was also very precious, but it was different from the first gadget. That's nothing compared to rubbish.

The physical quality of inner Qi leaving the body is much stronger than that of practicing Qi Chenggang. Even if it is suppressed by the cloud energy, it is still better than practicing Qi Chenggang. But if you refine your talent and get feedback, the improvement will be too much. , so many that even Wang Ke finds it terrifying just thinking about it.

"Do you think my inner energy leaving the body is a result of cultivation?" Zheng Tai said calmly.

"Okay." Wang Ke looked at Zheng Tai and didn't want to say anything. As the head of the Zheng family in Xingyang, the other party dared to use it. There was nothing he didn't dare to use.

Wang Ke collected all the things, and Zheng Tai felt relieved. To be honest, if Zheng Ling continued to make trouble, more families would come to see the fun. Han, Bai, and Chen's family passed by their house to watch the fun and already gave it to Zheng Tai. Let me remind you, although this kind of thing does not affect your fiefdom, it does affect your family reputation.

"Zheng Ling, do you need anything else now?" After Wang Ke collected the things, the matter was settled, and Zheng Tai could chat with Zheng Ling safely to see if there was anything else.

"I need to copy some of the original scriptures explained by the family." Zheng Ling said expressionlessly. After all, their family also has to prepare for these things, and education is a must. Compared with Wang Ke's family, Zheng Ling wrote silently. As well as taking Wang Ke's identity tag to go to Taishan Academy to copy the classics, it is better to copy some original classics with explanations here at the Zheng family.

After all, the books in Taishan Academy are really just books, with few in-depth annotations and explanations. These are things that teachers need to do, and the classics of major families have long been filled with hundreds of years of research. Generations of people in my family have explained it, and these explanations are very important, not only the original meaning of the book, but also the understanding of the content of the book by the people who wrote these explanations based on the actual situation.

"Okay." Zheng Tai glanced at Zheng Ling, but did not refuse.

"What else do you need?" Zheng Tai asked, looking at the two of them.

Wang Ke and Zheng Ling looked at each other, a little puzzled. Zheng Tai met Wang Ke's needs and Zheng Ling's needs. Even when Zheng Ling copied books, she would definitely copy some of the things that the Zheng family used to teach their legitimate sons. Then he took it to teach his own children, but Zheng Tai didn't stop him at all. It can be said that he had already obtained everything he could get, and he had even received overpayment. However, Zheng Tai was still asking.

"There is no need anymore, then you should listen to me next." Zheng Tai said with a smile.

Zheng Ling lowered her eyebrows and nodded when she heard this. Wang Ke frowned, thinking that Zheng Tai was going to stir up trouble.

"Zheng Ling, you have the qualifications to unlock spiritual talents." Zheng Tai pointed it out directly. Rather than going around and around this kind of thing, some things are better to be pointed out directly.

"This is not what I said, it was said by Kang Chenggong who taught you." Zheng Tai ignored the surprised looks of the two people opposite him and continued, "Even now you still have the possibility of awakening your spiritual talent. You just need to immerse yourself in learning the seven In eight years, it is very possible to awaken your spiritual talent. Of course, you need to concentrate on studying and accumulating during this period. "

Zheng Ling's face darkened. She didn't believe what Zheng Tai said, but she believed what Zheng Xuan said. The foundation of her knowledge came from Zheng Xuan, one of the top five or even top three educators in the Han Dynasty. She didn't understand it earlier and still thought She was smart, but later she understood and realized that it was Zheng Xuan who opened the stove. Of course, Zheng Xuan didn't tell her specifically, he told everyone, but she was the only one who understood and learned it.

And this at least shortened Zheng Ling's self-realization time by more than ten years. Therefore, Zheng Ling believed what Zheng Xuan said, and his morality and ability were worthy of trust.

"Seven or eight years." Zheng Ling was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Forget it, let's go home and take care of the baby."
