That being said, who could say for sure what would happen in the future?
Jiang Pengji loved to fight, but she was not a bloodthirsty person. As long as people did not come to her door and provoke her, she would not look for trouble. As for what the old monk had said about raising a flag and becoming a king, or even having an army and becoming an empress, it all depended on the situation.
She did not like to stir up trouble, but she was not afraid of it either.
Jiang Pengji was quite calm as she watched the orange sunset outside the carriage, but Liu She could not calm down.
Back at the Liu residence, he asked Jiang Pengji to visit the second lady while he went straight to the main courtyard. He waved at the maids beside him and said, "Guard outside. No one is allowed to enter without my permission. If Lanting comes, remember to inform me."
The two maids whispered, "Yes, sir." Liu She did not even look at them. Instead, he walked briskly to the room where he and Gu Min used to live. According to the rules of the time, the legal wife usually lived in the east courtyard, but he and Gu Min had always shared the same room.
The furnishings in the room were the same as before his wife passed away. Liu She looked around and quickly walked to a corner of the room.
He carefully opened the box and scratched the floor with the jade hairpin on his head a few times. Then, he followed the traces and moved the brick away. The bottom was hollow, and there were a few copper boxes inlaid with gold and silver. Each box was locked, and the only key was kept by him.
Opening one of the copper boxes, he cautiously and carefully took out a neatly folded silk cloth that was filled with words. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net w

Liu She's expression was inexplicably gloomy after he read the contents of the silk cloth. He was stunned for a long time. He waited for Jiang Pengji to come and pay her respects before he reluctantly folded the silk cloth back to its original shape. He put it away and moved the box back.
Liu She carefully smoothed out the creases in his clothes and adjusted his expression. After he was ready, he walked out of the room and went to the reception hall in the main courtyard.
Liu She had previously told Jiang Pengji that she did not need to go to the family school anymore. Wei Gongcao was sick, so he was temporarily the teacher.
He took the bamboo slips and the book from Jiang Pengji and flipped through them. "Are these what you've been reading recently?"
A volume of Military Strategies and half a volume of The Analects of Confucius.
He had originally used the study, so Liu She was very familiar with the books in the study. Many of the bamboo slips had his annotations.
As soon as he opened the bamboo slip, he saw many new comments. His daughter's favorable impression of Military Strategies was much higher than that of The Analects of Confucius. Most of the comments on the former were pertinent, and there were even his own thoughts and hypothetical strategies. As for the latter …
Tsk. Actually, he and Jiang Pengji were the same. They had never liked The Analects of Confucius. They would even get headaches if they read too much of it.
"… Sages once said that the people are the most important, the country is second, and the monarch is the most important … Tsk, but when you're really in an officialdom with constant strife, you'll find that these words can only deceive those who don't understand … Sages' words are just words after all."
Liu She closed the bamboo slip and put the half volume of The Analects of Confucius aside. He carefully read Jiang Pengji's comments on Military Strategies.
Based on that sentence alone, Jiang Pengji was certain that Liu She was a weirdo in this era. He was a weirdo who could perfectly blend in with the rest of the ordinary flowers.
Now that the Confucian school was popular, it was still the leader of the hundred schools of thought. Was it really appropriate for him to say that?
Even in her previous life, where technology was so advanced and the land was so vast, inequality still existed. It was a common occurrence, not to mention in the ancient times, where civilization was abnormally backward.
But she didn't expect that Liu She would say something like that to her.
According to the thinking of the people in the ancient times, didn't they think that it was a normal phenomenon?
Jiang Pengji couldn't reveal too much. She could only play along with his words and ask, "The monarch is the boat, and the commoner is the water. The water carries the boat, and the water capsizes the boat. From this, it can be seen that the commoner is more important than the monarch. Is it possible that the sage's words are also false? "
Liu She shook his head and corrected her. "No, I can't say that it's false. I can only say that it's too perfect."
He knew that his daughter was extraordinary, but she was still a child who had not seen much of the world. Amin often said that at the age of 12, she was still a little girl who was still wet behind the ears. Some things needed to be guided correctly, not left unchecked and let her learn by herself.
Twelve years old was the best age to mold people. After this period, their thinking would be fixed, and it would be difficult to change.
His daughter didn't like The Analects of Confucius, which could be seen from the few comments on it. But he couldn't deny it just because he liked it.
Half of The Analects of Confucius to rule the world was not a joke.
He had to learn it, but he had to learn it selectively.
As a monarch, learning The Analects of Confucius could help him hone his temperament. He would know how to control his subordinates, win people's hearts, and understand the public opinion … In short, there were many benefits.
Liu She had been an official in a remote place for many years, but after so many years, his governance was very effective. The prosperity of the county was no less than that of Hejian County.
From poverty to wealth and prosperity, the county under his rule had undergone earth-shattering changes. He could see clearly what the children of those rich families were like, and he was afraid that Jiang Pengji would go astray because of curiosity or arrogance.
"The sage's words are meant to restrain a gentleman, not a villain. You don't have to read too much about those vague words."
Jiang Pengji believed that if Liu She's words were thrown out, he would be condemned by the old-fashioned Confucian scholars. It was simply disgraceful.
Liu She smiled and said, "Even so, it also reveals a truth: those who win people's hearts will win the world!"
The current Dongqing was not like that.
The former emperor was absurd. He killed his father to ascend the throne. After he ascended the throne, he only knew how to enjoy himself. He did not cultivate his internal strength, appointed people through nepotism, and trusted villains. Not only that, he even raped his uncle and sister-in-law and forced his uncle to die. When it came to the current Emperor, it was even more exciting.
He killed his brother, stole his sister-in-law, forcefully snatched his minister's wife, slacked off in government affairs, and only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun all day long. He was arrogant, tyrannical, muddle-headed, and blind. He favored the villains, indulged his cronies, and persecuted good ministers and generals … The court was a mess. Officials protected each other. Corruption and corruption rotted the foundation of Dongqing. There were too many unjust, false, and wrong cases … With such an emperor, Dongqing would be finished sooner or later.
As for the three tribes of the Northern Borderline and the Count of Zhenbei, they were just the straw that broke the camel's back.
If there was no peace negotiation, Dongqing could still hold on for a few more years. When the princes grew up, there might be a virtuous emperor who could rise to the throne. Perhaps he could still turn the tide and save Dongqing, which was on the verge of collapse. If there was peace negotiation, it would be hard to say if they invited a wolf into the house.
The world was faintly in chaos, so he believed Monk Liaochen's words.
Jiang Pengji looked at Liu She, who was smiling. He was very serious and did not seem to be joking at all.
"I will remember father's words." Jiang Pengji secretly rolled her eyes. Liu She was egging her on and warning her at the same time.
The ancient era was very different from the era she lived in. It was not only in terms of technology, but also in terms of culture and society. Liu She's words were still useful to her. As for other things, she still needed time and space to understand them in detail.
