Chapter 46 Qin Sheng is confused

Chapter 46

Lv Desheng's study is divided into two floors, the outer study is for their family to read, and the inner study is where he handles official business, similar to a private office.

Lv Songli felt that they should be able to stay there until the two mothers finish discussing things.

When the two arrived at the study, they found that Lu Desheng and Qin Heng were playing chess.

This outer study is 40 square meters, with low couches suitable for reading on the east and west sides. As long as people reading in these two places do not speak loudly, they will hardly disturb each other.

They greeted each other and went to the other end of the study. Lu Songli casually took a book and sat down to read.

Qin Sheng discovered that the Lu family actually had a map of Dali. At this time, this map was stretched out and placed on a wooden shelf, and this shelf happened to be next to Lu Songli. Looking at Lu Songli's free appearance, it was obvious that she had come to her father's study frequently.

Qin Sheng walked closer and looked at it carefully. The more he looked, the more surprised he was. He was very familiar with maps.

The map of the Lu family is not worse than the one collected by the Qin family, and it can even be said that it is very close to the one surveyed by the Qin family. Such a clear and detailed map should not be available anywhere else except the emperor. I think the map of the Lu family should be a reward from the emperor.

Qin Sheng only had a clear understanding of the favor of his future father-in-law at this time.

Although Lu Songli was reading a book, he also noticed his actions, thinking that he was worthy of being a young general who fought in the south and north in the original book. The first time he came to the outer study, he noticed the map she opened.

Yes, this map was taken from her father. These days, she was busy thinking about what kind of compensation to ask from the Xie family. The degree of compensation must be well grasped. If it is too little, she will not be happy, and if it is too much, the Xie family will not be willing. This map is for her to think about. After all, the compensation that the Xie family can give is nothing but gold, silver, land, and rare treasures. Of course, they also have intangible wealth such as connections in the officialdom. But the Lu family didn't need it. Her father had expressed his loyalty to the emperor, so there was no need to rise any higher. Even if her father hadn't been involved, they wouldn't dare to use the connections of the Xie family.

Lu Songli didn't plan to not pay compensation, and let the Xie family owe this favor for the future. First of all, the Xie family would definitely not be willing to do so. Besides, this favor is actually like power, and it may be invalid after it expires.

The original owner's life-saving grace is always there, but will the favor of the Xie family always be valuable? Not necessarily.

To realize it as soon as possible and to maximize it is the purpose of her busy work during this period.

Lu Songli felt a little depressed when she thought of this.

The Queen Mother's marriage decree wasted her efforts. It was a pity that she had planned for so long and let the situation develop and ferment, and the Zhao family also involved the greater referee-the Queen Mother as she expected. She thought she could use the power to fight the power and take the opportunity to slaughter the Xie family, but now it's all gone. Her parents will go to the Xie family later. Although the Xie family is willing to give some compensation, it will definitely be much less than what she planned to get.

Forget it, it is better to lose something in one place than in another. No matter how much the Xie family compensates her, it will definitely not be as good as a gold medal of immunity from death. Besides, she has a plan in mind for what kind of compensation she will ask the Xie family for. Lu Songli thought about it and let it go.

Lu Songli came to her senses and found Qin Sheng sitting in front of the map in a daze. She didn't care about him, leaned back comfortably on the chair, and turned another page of the book.

"Is your map just like this?" Qin Sheng asked softly.

"What else?" Lu Songli replied casually. She didn't think that the map that can be seen everywhere in the future can be regarded as a military secret here.

Qin Sheng mentioned the importance of the map to her.

Lu Songli smiled and asked him, "Do you think outsiders can come in here casually?" Although she didn't put the map away, the study was a key place and ordinary people couldn't come in.

Although Lv Songli had added some details, he could still tell that she didn't care about the map. Qin Sheng pursed his lips, a little unhappy. You know, in order to survey and improve this map, especially the part near the border, their Qin army paid a great price.

"And this map is too eye-catching. I have never seen such an ugly map." Lv Songli muttered, and it was almost inaudible when she said the last part.

This map shows the territory of Dali. She was used to the national territory of a rooster, so she was very uncomfortable when she saw this map for the first time. Compared with that rooster, the territory of Dali has shrunk by one-third, like a lion head with two long ears.

Eye-catching? What does this mean? She shouldn't have touched the pepper and garlic with her hands just now? How could it be so eye-catching? And what did she say, saying that the map was ugly? Hearing this, Qin Sheng's expression was hard to describe.

"The map was drawn according to the current actual territory of Dali. It can't be out of touch with reality just for the sake of beauty, right?"

"Of course I know what you said, but if Qiang Hu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, Sanhan and other places are drawn, wouldn't it look much better?" Lu Songli said confidently.

Qin Sheng was speechless. No, that is someone else's territory. You can't pull it into your arms for the sake of beauty. However, his eyes have been on the map, and a picture unconsciously emerged in his mind. According to what she said, inlaying the territories of these foreign tribes one by one on the edge of the map, it seems that it will really look much better.

"Wait, you also know that there are Qiang Hu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, and Sanhan outside our territory?" Qin Sheng suddenly realized this, and added in his mind, as if he knew the location and size of their territories.

Lv Songli secretly rolled her eyes in her heart. What's so surprising about this? She knows exactly how the global territory of the seven continents and five oceans is distributed. Although she is a transmigrator and Dali has never appeared in the official history, she speculates that Dali should be equivalent to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties period in the official history based on the size of the country's territory and local customs. In addition, there are relevant data to support it. Is it a problem to know that there are Qianghu, Xianbei, Goguryeo, Sanhan and other tribes outside Dali and the approximate size of their territories?

Thinking of this, Qin Sheng looked her up and down.

He probably knew what women at that time were like. Some girls, from birth to death, have never left the prefecture where they were born. Most women live within a radius of ten miles between their parents and their husband's family, unless they encounter natural disasters and need to escape famine. They have only a vague understanding of the foreign races outside Dali.

The women in the capital were better than them, but at most they knew one or two names of foreign tribes through fighting occasionally, and could not tell where these foreign tribes were outside Dali. Unlike her, she pointed out all of them one by one, like a treasure.

Lu Songli remained motionless, letting him do whatever he wanted, it was just a look.

Lu Songli did not intend to hide her knowledge, talent, vision, etc. First, the Qin family was about to face a disaster, and she needed a voice. Second, she did not want her own life to be completely decided by others, and she did not even have the right to listen and participate.

Finally, Qin Sheng stood in front of the map and scratched his head. He vaguely realized that the wife he was going to marry was a bit extraordinary. Suddenly, he felt that he could not understand Xie Zhan. How could he allow the Zhao family to interfere in his original good marriage? As a man, he really could not understand it. Is Zhao Yutan better than Lu Songli?

But as far as we can see now, it is not necessarily the case. It is obvious that Lu Songli is better than Zhao Yutan. Here, I am referring to her brain. In terms of appearance, both of them are different, each with their own characteristics, and it is impossible to compare them. Qin Sheng felt that he might never be able to understand Xie Zhan's thoughts in his lifetime.
