Chapter 6873 Method
It was really Huangfu Song. Even if other people coveted Xin Xianying, they would not dare to ask for it.

After all, Chen Xi knew the situation of the Huangfu family, and the conditions in all aspects were indeed good. Xin Xianying would be the mistress if she married there, and would not suffer any loss. In addition, with the family business accumulated by Huangfu Song and the things passed down in the future, it was actually quite appropriate for Xin Xianying to marry Huangfu Shuhou.

What's more, what Huangfu Song said was correct. Xin Xianying was indeed a grown-up girl, eighteen or nineteen years old, and it was indeed time for her to get married.

"Old man, you're a little late. My apprentice already has a partner, but it hasn't been announced yet." Chen Xi sighed and told the truth, "If you had said it two years earlier, this might have been possible. After all, I've seen the descendants of the Huangfu family. They're all steady and stable, and my apprentice really likes young people like that. It's a pity..."

Huangfu Song died more than ten years later, and the situation of the Huangfu family has changed a lot. According to the official history, Huangfu Shuhou only held an official position at the level of a county magistrate or county magistrate. But now that Huangfu Song is alive, everyone is willing to help the young people in the Huangfu family who are not very capable but will not do any harm and have self-awareness.

After all, it won't be a bad thing. Self-knowledge is really useful at a high level. So if Huangfu Shuhou wants to marry Xin Xianying, it can't be considered as Xin Xianying marrying down. After all, the Huangfu family has an old man who is one of the four descendants of the Nine Gifts, so they are a good match.

But it was too late for Huangfu Song to speak. Yang Dan had almost completed the process and was transferred back from Liangzhou to serve as Shaofu Tongcheng, one of the six chancellors of Shaofu and a subordinate of Shaofu Qing. Although Chen Xi merged Shaofu and streamlined its administration, due to Chen Xi's own functions, the scale of Shaofu did not actually shrink, and it even expanded due to the problems of state-owned factories and mines.

However, Yang Tan is nearly 30 years old now, while Huangfu Shuhou is of the same age as Xin Xianying, only 19 years old. In ten years, he should be able to reach the rank of Qianshi. If we have to say between the two, Huangfu Shuhou is actually more suitable. But who can blame Xin Xianying for having observed Yang Tan for so long and having accepted him?

Even though Chen Xi was Xin Xianying's teacher, he would not deliberately break up the couple. In fact, Chen Xi's intervention in the transfer to the position of Shaofu Tongcheng could be considered a good thing.

Otherwise, if he was transferred from the prefect of Liangzhou back to Chang'an, he would be just an ordinary Qianshi official, and the Shaofu Tongcheng would be at least one of the six Shaofu officials, which means he is a Qianshi official with real power in the true sense.

"Ah?" Huangfu Song looked at Chen Xi, stunned for a moment, and then confirmed that Chen Xi was not joking. He couldn't help but look depressed, "Whose son is this?"

"The Yang family of Mount Tai." Chen Xi told the truth. Chen Xi had nothing to hide from Huangfu Song. Besides, after the job adjustment next year, when Yang Dan became the Shaofu, Xin Xianying would marry into the Yang family.

As for Yang Tan's ability, it was a stretch for him to be one of the Nine Ministers, but being a Shaofu Cheng was not a problem. No matter what the official history said, he was able to sit on the position of Nine Ministers. Although Yang Tan had a lot of personal connections to get to the position of Nine Ministers at that time, no matter how many personal connections he had, he was still capable to be one of the Nine Ministers. At least he had no problem being one of the six Shaofu Cheng.

Considering that this guy will be his apprentice's husband in the future, Chen Xi is also prepared to train him. Although he probably has no hope of becoming a Shaofuqing, he can try to train him in other directions.

"A loyal minister!" Huangfu Song nodded upon hearing this and said nothing else.

The most different point from the official history is that in this life Liu Bei came from Mount Tai, and the Yang family was a local family in Mount Tai. Excluding the issue of lolita control, the family style of the Yang family was actually very clean and upright. When Liu Bei entered Mount Tai, the Yang family also helped a lot. After Cai Yan came from Chang'an, Yang Xin basically joined Liu Bei's army.

Therefore, no matter in terms of qualifications, ability, or background, the Yang family is definitely the direct lineage. Moreover, the two boys of the Yang family are now eleven years old, and their natural talents have already been revealed. This is why Huangfu Song wants to ask Xin Xianying to marry his grandson. Women with spiritual talents can really give birth to talents who can change their family traditions!

Chen Xi looked at Huangfu Song's expression and felt sorry for him. After all, Chen Xi knew the situation of the Huangfu family. Apart from Huangfu Song, the rest were all practical and capable young people...

The problem is that being hardworking and capable is of little use in this environment. The family business left by Huangfu Song will take two or three generations to transform into a noble family. At that level, the young people in the family can survive as long as they are hardworking and capable and don't mess around. Huangfu Song has just built up the family business, and it will take two more generations of hard work to secure it. Otherwise, once Huangfu Song falls, the family business will be scattered within two generations.

This is actually the situation of the Huangfu family in official history. Under the protection of Huangfu Song, Huangfu Song's sons and nephews were able to keep the family business by maintaining their integrity. But without Huangfu Song's protection, this group of honest and sincere men from Guanxi were wiped out in no time.

After all, the rise of every family has to face this kind of rain of bullets from the dark. If Huangfu Song is still alive, that group of people will naturally not do anything wrong. But if Huangfu Song is gone, the system can only leave some dignity for his descendants. As for other things, don't even think about it. If you don't have enough ability and are not worthy of eating at the table, if you force your way to the table, you will just be taken up and shared!
Huangfu Song realized this, so he needed to provide full protection for his children and grandchildren before he fell, but he didn't expect...

"Well, old man, how about this? I see that you don't actually want your grandson to marry my apprentice. You just want to bring a young female with spiritual talent home to continue the Huangfu family's business. There's no hope for Xianying, so how about I suggest you a new one?" Chen Xi thought that Huangfu Song had worked hard and made great contributions, and that the Huangfu family were indeed honest people, so he thought he could give her a hand.

"Really!" At this moment Huangfu Song's eyes even shone.

"There's no need for me to tell lies." Chen Xi curled his lips and said, "But I have to be frank. You know about this kind of thing. Whether it succeeds or not, you can't spread it to others."

Huangfu Song nodded, "Whether it succeeds or not, I, Huangfu Song, will never say a word to anyone."

"Okay, just don't be disgusted." Chen Xi said after thinking for a while.

"What do I dislike?" Huangfu Song looked at Chen Xi speechlessly. "Why should I dislike marrying a spiritually gifted wife? Whose girl is this?"

"He's a little young." Chen Xi ignored Huangfu Song and continued speaking.

"She is young, but she can still develop spiritual talent, which means she has great potential. This is the good woman of my Huangfu family!" Huangfu Song has no bottom line at all, "Tell me, which family's noble lady is from? The benefits of Cai's teacher are revealed at this time."

Chen Xi glanced at Huangfu Song and said, "It's the Ruan girl I just mentioned."

Huangfu Song was stunned for a moment. "Are you sure? Although I haven't been back to Chang'an for many years, Ruan Gong used to be a lieutenant under me, so when his daughter was born, I gave her a gift. She should be only twelve or thirteen years old now. Does she have spiritual talent? Zhuge Kongming is no more than that!"

Huangfu Song didn't even mention the word "ugly". Nowadays, people marry virtuous wives and concubines for their beauty. It doesn't matter whether the mistress of a big family is beautiful or not. What matters is her ability. Besides, as for beautiful women, it is hard to find one at any level in a family like Huangfu Song's. What's more, Huangfu Song really doesn't care about ugliness. It doesn't matter in the dark at night. What matters is her ability!

"If it's really opened, do I need to tell you?" Chen Xi said unhappily, "If the Ruan family girl had opened her spiritual talent now, she would definitely be reserved by other families. How could she wait until now?"

What's wrong with being ugly? She is smart, very smart, so smart that she can be listed in history books as one of the four ugliest women. So there is no need to doubt Ruan Huihui's intelligence at all, she is really smart!
"That's right." Huangfu Song nodded, "Okay, I'll go to Ruan Gong to propose marriage now."

"Fuck!" Chen Xi was completely stunned by Huangfu Song. He was too aggressive.

"What's wrong?" Huangfu Song asked in confusion when he saw Chen Xi's expression.

"What I mean is, would there be any problem if you go there suddenly to propose marriage?" Chen Xi asked tentatively. In fact, what Chen Xi wanted to say was, what would Ruan Gong think if you went there so suddenly?
"It's simple. I'll just tell you directly that I don't trust him to be in charge of the Southern Army. As a general, he has to monitor this matter and be responsible for the Han Dynasty. How about this, I heard that you have a daughter, so I'll find a grandson to marry her, so that I can feel more at ease." Huangfu Song said stiffly.

Chen Xi was quite speechless, but what Huangfu Song said was somewhat reasonable. After all, Ruan Gong also knew what the Southern Army was, and he also knew that a large number of these things were buried in Yunmengze and Chu. In this case, Huangfu Song said that he was worried that Ruan Gong would run away, or would not stand with him on this matter, so he needed to strengthen contact or something...

"According to what you said, Huihui is already twelve or thirteen years old. Ruan Gong should be worrying about how to find a husband for his daughter. Am I not a perfect fit?" Huangfu Song said, stroking his beard.

"Well, go ahead. The Ruan girl should be awakening in a few months at the earliest, or two years at the latest. About half a month ago, she knocked on the door of spiritual talent." Chen Xi said very seriously, "So I am not fooling around."

Chen Xi had believed earlier that the Ruan girl would definitely be able to awaken her spiritual talent, but Chen Xi really didn't expect that the Ruan girl would be able to touch the door to spiritual talent so early. Just like Xin Xianying back then, she first explored the spiritual talent, then suppressed her own state, and slowly adjusted and determined it to make her spiritual talent more in line with her own needs.

"So powerful?" Huangfu Song's eyes were already bright enough to almost glow. What else was there to say? Wasn't she the most suitable mistress for their Huangfu family?

"Kong Ming sensed the direction and approximate location last time, and that location is the residence of the Weiwei. Kong Ming may not be sure yet, but I felt that she and Yang Huiyu are equally matched many years ago." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "But at present, it seems that the Ruan girl is better. Of course, if we really want to say, natural talent is natural talent, and acquired effort is acquired effort. The Ruan girl obviously works harder than Yang Huiyu. No, she works much harder than Yang Huiyu!"

Although Yang Huiyu has strong self-control, knows when to study and can find the joy of learning, Yang Huiyu and Ruan's daughter are at two extremes. Yang Huiyu is too beautiful. A girl who studies well, is beautiful and good at communication is destined to not be able to focus all her attention on studying. However, it is true that in the girls' school exams, Yang Huiyu and Ruan Huihui are basically on par.

The problem is that the full mark of the school test is 100, and it is impossible to measure the upper limit of these two. But now, Ruan Huihui's upper limit has obviously exceeded Yang Huiyu's. She has touched the door of spiritual talent and started to actively screen and adjust the awakening of her spiritual talent. Given Yang Huiyu's current situation, it will take another three years!
Kong Ming was not a very sure person, and he did not think that Ruan Huihui would touch the door to spiritual talent at an age slightly older than him, so he missed it. Of course, another reason was that Zhuge Liang was quite busy recently and had no time to go there to see what was going on. If he had gone there, Zhuge Liang would definitely have noticed it.

"Yang Huiyu..." Huangfu Song recalled with some reminiscence, "You said I should give it a try, is there any hope? After all, my old face should be useful."

"Try what?" Chen Xi said unhappily.

"Why do you seem impatient?" Huangfu Song asked curiously.

"In theory, Yang Huiyu will marry Cai Chen." Chen Xi glanced and said.

Huangfu Song was silent for a moment, but he could understand the reason. The responsibility that should have belonged to both Cai Zhaoji and Cai Zhenji was borne by Cai Zhaoji alone, and she also gave birth to Cai's legitimate son. So according to the logic of the times, it was natural for Cai Zhenji to marry her daughter back to continue the Cai family's family lineage. It's just that Yang Huiyu was a few years older, but that was not a problem.

Chen Xi had actually thought about this matter, and Cai Yan had also talked to Chen Xi about it. Chen Xi had a neutral attitude towards this matter, neither opposing nor agreeing with it, because there was no way to say it. As for Cai Yan, she was willing to facilitate this matter. After all, Yang Huiyu was smart, and she was her niece, so she knew her inside out.

Yang Xin's attitude towards this matter was similar to Chen Xi's, but Yang Xin had no way to say anything. After all, he abducted Cai Zhenji when she was eleven or twelve years old, causing the Cai family to rely entirely on Cai Yan for support. He was indeed wrong, so marrying his daughter back home was completely reasonable according to the etiquette and laws of that time.

"That's it, I'll go talk to Ruan Gong." Huangfu Song felt that this corner was not easy to dig, and ten birds in the bush are worth one bird in the hand. After thinking it over, Huangfu Song decided to bring Ruan Huihui back to his home first to extend the life of their Huangfu family. As for the rest, he would think about it later.

Huangfu Song left quickly after he finished speaking, leaving Chen Xi sitting alone in the warm room. He pressed his temples and began to think seriously about the things he had seen but neglected. Then, while Chen Xi was thinking, Wu'an Jun appeared alone in the warm room.

"Lord Wu'an, tell me your plan. There is no problem with Marquis Huaiyin's plan, but I'm worried about accidents. After all, you have strangled the Binshi Demon God on a large scale. Even if the majority of them were great demon gods who had left their bodies once, I think it may still be of reference value. Moreover, our ancestor did not come, but asked you to pass on the message. I think he knew that you had a way to deal with it." Although Chen Xi looked in the direction of Bai Qi, his eyes were obviously out of focus.

It was obvious that Chen Xi was waiting for Wu'an Jun before, but he didn't expect that Huangfu Song would talk to him about marriage.

"I do have a way." Bai Qi nodded, indicating that Chen Xi's judgment was correct and he did have a way to deal with the Binshi Demon.

"Law soldiers, right?" Chen Xi gave the answer on behalf of Bai Qi. Bai Qi did not have any doubts when he heard it, but just nodded quietly.

"I knew it was like this." Chen Xi sneered twice, "Mr. Wu'an, I want to ask you something. Please tell me the truth."

"What is the nature of the Law Soldier?" Bai Qi knew what Chen Xi wanted to ask.

"It's not just a large-scale oath constraint. I'm afraid it also refers to some of the Bin Shi Xiang rituals, but it should have only taken part of the content. This can explain a lot of problems. For example, why the military strategy left by General Duan is said to be borrowed from the Iron Eagle Warriors of the pre-Qin period, but the warriors that were finally created contain the content of the Bin Shi Xiang ritual." Chen Xi said slowly.

"Names are very important. Since Lord Duan named this type of soldier the Sharp Warriors, it must be the Iron Eagles of the Qin Dynasty." Chen Xi looked at Bai Qi with a complicated expression and said, "Names are not fake!"

"Duan Xing should have gradually discovered the ritual of feasting corpses by learning from the Iron Eagle Warriors," Bai Qi said slowly, "and then he deepened the relevance of the Warriors in this regard."

"Sure enough, I said that the threshold of the corpse feast ceremony was so low and the combat capability was so strong, did the other countries really not notice it?" Chen Xi sighed lightly and began to face the mist of history. Yes, Chen Xi saw it, but Chen Xi was unwilling to see it.

"The Binshi Feast Ceremony created by Wu Zixu was strong in that it had a low threshold and was also quite good in actual combat, but that version of the Binshi Demon had a fatal flaw." Bai Qi said with some memories.

“In order to achieve quick success, the strength of the will has been sacrificed. Even for a demon god who has completed the process of leaving his body, his will is only slightly stronger than that of a normal soldier. In addition, the self-recovery of the body requires the consumption of willpower to transform vitality from the essence of heaven and earth, and the strength of the talent is also affected by the will.” Chen Xi spoke slowly, as if he had experienced that era.

"Yes." Bai Qi nodded. "So no matter who they are, as long as they complete the corpse feast ceremony, they are at the fifth level of smelting. However, this fifth level of smelting cannot crush the opponent in large-scale combat."

The demon has no self-awareness. This is the core of the demon's immortality, but also its fatal weakness. Without self-awareness, it is impossible for the demon to have an outburst at the level of will.

The will of a normal human being fluctuates. When it is high, it can reach the level of breaking the will limit, and when it is low, it will be very weak. Assuming that the normal will of a human being is one, then when it is high, it may reach ten, which is the level of breaking the will limit, and when it is low, it is zero. This is the real condition of human beings.

The Binshi Demon God is a self-aware being born from devouring human will. Its will is naturally higher than that of humans, but it remains constant at a certain value.

"It only happens on a large scale, right?" Chen Xi said slowly.

"Yes, this problem only occurs during large-scale warfare. If the scale is smaller, it won't even be noticed." Bai Qi nodded and said, "But in the pre-Qin period, once a war broke out, all the people would be mobilized, often more than 100,000 or even several hundred thousand."

“So several other countries soon noticed this, and that person’s operation was also to make up for this. As for the Qin State’s law soldiers, although they have borrowed from the corpse banquet ceremony, they cannot become demon gods.” Bai Qi said solemnly.

"The ancestors didn't actually solve this problem. They only used talent stripping and reorganization to strengthen the demon god, so that the demon god's foundation reached a certain level, making the original flaw unusable, right?" Chen Xi asked with a sigh, "The reason why the two ordinary Binshi demon gods were definitely the seventh level of Qi Refining into Gang after the fusion was just because the quality of Qi Refining into Gang could support the seventh level, right? After the three, four, and five fusions, they were still stuck at the seventh level of Qi Refining into Gang, and it was the same, right?"

"Occasionally, the eighth level of Qi Refining into Gang will appear." Bai Qi added.

"The demon god created by our ancestors is actually easy to deal with. At least for me, even though there is some vitality reserve, there is an upper limit to its scale. After all, the carrying capacity of Qi Refining is limited. Once the reserve is consumed and I continue to destroy the demon god's body, the demon god will become weaker and weaker, right?" Chen Xi looked at Bai Qi and asked.

"That's the logic, but it's very difficult. After the second time of leaving the body, the upper limit of the reserve will increase dramatically. After seven hundred years, it is really full. Even if the will is destroyed, it can be regenerated dozens or hundreds of times. The situation you mentioned is the situation that Wu Zi's group of demons have to face." Bai Qi shook his head and said. Chen Xi was silent after hearing this.

"Wu Zi's demons have defense accumulation." Chen Xi said with some speechlessness. One is not a human being with fast recovery speed, and the other is not a human being with high defense. As for whether Wu Qi can control these demons without accumulating defense, hey, Sun Wu has already given the answer before. At the beginning, a small number of them can be controlled, but if too many are killed, the constraints will fail and no one can control them.

"The Law Soldiers can kill them all. Your era is different from my era. You can build the strongest Law Soldiers throughout history." Bai Qi said very seriously.

"In essence, the Law Soldier is actually the Oath Talent, but it is just of a higher purity, right?" Chen Xi looked aside, his eyes a little confused and said.

"Yes, 23 great oaths, 2683 constraints, combined to form the invincible Qin Army." Bai Qi nodded and said, "The newly born demon god will be crushed by the oath in an instant and become the Qin Army's nourishment."

"The only drawback is that if the law collapses, the army will collapse, right?" Chen Xi chuckled and said, "It can be a special comprehensive constraint that can be superimposed on all legions, and it can be strengthened synchronously with national strength and laws!"

It seems like there are a lot of troubles in March.
