Fight the Giants Chapter 665

Chapter 665 New ideas

Zhao Duo is the general of the Zhang family, and his ancestors followed the Zhang family to the battlefield.

He himself had been a soldier of Zhang Fu for many years, and he didn't retire from the battlefield until he was blinded in one eye.

At the beginning Zhang Fu felt that Huo Nian was extremely talented, so he sent Zhao Duo to Boya School to teach Huo Nian martial arts. Later, when Huo Nian returned to the British government, he was still in the Boya School, and Zhang Fu had no new arrangements for him.

Huo Xi met Zhao Duo in the flower hall in the front yard.

"I have met the prince, I have met the eldest lady." Zhao Duo saluted.

I feel quite emotional in my heart.

At the beginning, the more I taught Huo Nian, the more I loved him. I wished I could teach him all my skills, so that he could become the general of the Zhang family and work for the Zhang family. Unexpectedly, such a good seedling turned out to be of the blood of the Zhang family and the son of the Duke.

Looking at the eldest sister, Shizi, at the beginning, he thought that this girl was not something that ordinary people could raise, but he didn't expect that she was the prostitute's daughter.

The fate of the world is just wonderful.

"Nian'er has received Mr. Zheng's careful teaching these years. I haven't solemnly thanked him. I really feel ashamed."

"Miss, don't say that. The son is talented, he can understand everything, and he has a guard who teaches him day and night, and his subordinates don't do anything."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries.

"Miss, this subordinate is here today to ask if he will stay or not. When this subordinate saw Zhang Jin, he wanted to see the Duke, but Zhang Jin asked his subordinate to come to find Miss, saying that it was up to Mrs. The young lady is in charge. So this subordinate came to ask the eldest lady to show me."

Huo Xi was a little surprised, where is Zhao Duo going? To ask her?

"Boya Shushu wants to dismiss Mr. Zheng?"

Zhao Duo shook his head: "No. It's just that there was no martial arts class in Boya Shushu School, and it was set up because of the prince. After the prince left, there were only two students left, Fang Qi and Gu Yu, who were willing to learn martial arts from their subordinates, and every day I only study for an hour at noon."

The academy students are all gone, and there are only three of them left, and there are many inconveniences.

"With so much money given by the Duke every month, my subordinates only work for one hour a day. I feel ashamed. I wanted to quit this job, but I really couldn't bear Fang Qi and Gu Yu. child..."

Huo Xi understood.

Originally, Zhang Fu took care of him and taught martial arts for free. Boya Shushu attached great importance to it, so many students followed him to learn martial arts. Later, Huo Nian, Mu Jie and Bao Kang left, no one led them to practice together, and everyone paid less and more attention to it.

Teaching for only one hour a day, and only handing over children in twos and threes, is a bit of a blow to the enthusiasm for teaching.

Zhao Duo didn't speak until today, and he really didn't know how to arrange Fang Qi and Gu Yu.

Children of ordinary people, it is easier said than done to cross the single-plank bridge of the imperial examination. Finally, there was another way out, and Zhao Duo himself felt a little unbearable to cut off their way.

Huo Xi nodded: "I understand. I have to think about how to arrange Mr. Zheng. Mr. Go back to the Boya School. When I have a countermeasure, I will order someone to notify Mr. Zheng."

"Thank you Miss!"

Zhao Duo is not very old, in his early thirties, it is the time when a man is at his most energetic. He has passion in his heart and is eager to do a career, but unfortunately he has to retire from the army because of his illness.

For such a person, who is also loyal to the Zhang family, Huo Xi didn't want to chill his heart.

When he turned to leave, Huo Xi suddenly asked him: "Mr. Zheng, do you know someone who is proficient in military strategy?"

Zhao Duo was taken aback, "Miss, do you want to?"

"It's just a preliminary idea. It depends on whether we can find suitable talents."

Zhao Duo endured his excitement: "Wang Boyi of the Wang family is a capable man. He is proficient in military strategy. His family was originally a family of generals, but..." Glancing at Huo Xi, he didn't know what to say.

Huo Xi nodded, "I understand. I know a thing or two about the Wang family."

Zhao Duo breathed a sigh of relief.

The Wang family was originally a family of generals, one of the few Han families trusted by the Wu Dynasty court. Several generations have served the Wu Dynasty army.

Such a family would not be trusted by those in power in the Wei Dynasty even if they later transferred to the new dynasty.

No better than the Zhang family. First he defected to the King of Yan, and then reluctantly sent his daughter to show his loyalty. With the merits of following the dragon, he saved Emperor Yongkang and died for the country.

The abilities of Zhang Fu and his son were seen by Emperor Yongkang and reused.

On the contrary, the Wang family has been sitting on the bench all these years. Even if there are sons and nephews in the clan, they have slowly joined the army over the years, but they are all low-level jobs and idle jobs.

Huo Xi thought of Wang Boyi, the eldest son of Mrs. Tai's eldest brother. He and Zhang Fu are cousins, so Huo Xi should call him cousin.

Her impression of this uncle is not bad.

Nodding towards Zhao Duo: "I see. I really want to reopen the family studies of the Zhang family. When I am fully prepared, I will invite Mr. Zheng to teach martial arts for the children of the family. At that time, any disciple you fancy can be Go to the Zhang family to study attached to school."

"Thank you Miss!"

Zhao Duo bowed to Huo Xi sincerely this time, "Your subordinates will listen to Miss Hou's orders at any time!"

"Okay, you go back first, and I'll send someone to notify you when I'm ready."

"Yes!" Zhao Duo left excitedly.

Huo Nian watched him go away, and looked at Huo Xi: "Sister, do you want to start studying ethnicity?"

Huo Xi smiled: "That's right. The Zhang family already had studies. It's just that after the Zhang family arrived in the south, it has been in turmoil for the past few years. The grandfather is gone, and the father has been fighting outside. No one has mentioned this matter. What does Nian'er think? , can you open the ethnology again?"

Huo Nian nodded again and again: "If the family study can be opened, it will be a great thing to benefit the children of the family! Everyone will remember my sister!"

Huo Xi looked at him, touched his head, and smiled: "My sister has to think about this matter again, and discuss it with my father and Mrs. Tai. How are you doing in the Imperial College? Can you keep up with the classes and get along with your classmates?" how?"

"Sister, don't worry, Mr. Qin will often give me make-up lessons. Although there are many courses in the Imperial College, Nianer can keep up. I get along well with my classmates..."

Since the study of ethnology was going to be started, Huo Xi began to make preparations.

After having a general framework in mind, someone sent a letter to Zhang Fu, and took Huo Nian to see Mrs. Tai.

When Huo Xi saw Mrs. Tai again, she felt that something was different about her. It seemed that the sharpness on his face was a little less.

I don't know if it's because there are too many scriptures recited in the ancestral hall, so there is more indifference and detachment.

"Your Majesty wants to resume ethnology?" Mrs. Tai was a little surprised and looked at Huo Nian.

Huo Nian himself was a little surprised. He glanced at Huo Xi, saw his sister's encouraging face, and nodded to Mrs. Tai: "Well, Nian'er and sister want to reopen the ethnology."

Huo Nian's heart was shaken, is my sister going to take this credit on him?

Huo Xi said to Mrs. Tai: "I told Nian'er that Zhang's family used to have ethnology, but they didn't restart it after arriving in the south. Now that he is the eldest son, he also wants to do something for the family."

Huo Nian was encouraged and nodded: "I also want all the children in the clan to study and practice martial arts."

Mrs. Tai was greatly shocked, looking back and forth at the siblings.

Huo Xi continued: "Nowadays, only our family holds important positions in the court of the Zhang family. Everyone lives in the Duke's mansion. Many people's lives are not satisfactory, and their children can't afford to go to school. People in the world don't worry about being few. Suffering from inequality, not poverty but anxiety, the Zhang family wants to prosper, and it is not enough to help the clansman a little at ordinary times."

Huo Xi knows that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

If the Zhang family wants to prosper, it is not enough to rely on the British government alone, and it is difficult to support it alone.

It is still necessary to teach the tribe some survival skills and let them go on their own, instead of staring at the British government.

The most important thing is that she wants to take this opportunity to help Nian'er establish prestige in the clan, secure his position as the eldest son, and ensure that his position cannot be shaken.
