What kind of bad thoughts can the queen have?

Shi Ran flicked the photo and handed it to Shi Zhong: "The ghost is in this." Shi Ran patted the Polaroid, "Is this portrait real? The ghost drew it with its ability. If it takes a thousand pictures of you Zhang, your soul will be ingested to replace the ghost inside, and the ghost can be reincarnated."

Shi Zhong was looking at the photos curiously. Hearing what Shi Ran said, he looked at Shi Ran in horror and shock, and said, "I do things for you wholeheartedly. Why do you want to harm me? You are really my good brother."

As he spoke, Shi Chong quickly snatched the Polaroid from Shi Ran's hand, and stuffed it into his wide sleeve naturally.

Shi Zhong said solemnly: "Since my soul has been absorbed by it, in order to prevent you from harming me, I will keep this thing here."

Shi Ran smiled and asked, "You came here to ask about ghosts?"

Shi Zhong took out two rolled up papers from the other sleeve, and said, "This is the battle report from the northern and southern fronts. Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu are missing."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Shi Ran and Liu Shanqing changed slightly.Shi Ran walked behind the desk while watching the battle report on the northern front.

The battle report sent by Shi Zhong was very brief:

"Shi Yuan advanced slowly, Le Fu sneaked [-] Hun troops in the desert, Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu lost contact for seven days."

Shi Ran handed the battle report to Liu Shanqing, looked at Shi Chong and asked, "Before Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu lost contact, did you hear any news?"

Shi Zhong said: "Just like Le Fu, they are looting the Huns' army in the desert. However, the number of Huns' army they faced is unknown."

"Do Prime Minister Zuo and Le Fu know about this matter?"

"I know," Shi Zhong said, "Le Fu has already tried to find them, but Prime Minister Zuo continued to advance in an orderly manner. At present, the Huns army in the hx area, under the encirclement and suppression of Prime Minister Zuo, is about to completely withdraw from Hexi."

"Continue to monitor the situation over there. If there is news about Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu, report it immediately."

"promise."

Just as Shi Zhong was about to resign, Shi Ran called Shi Zhong to stop, and under the cover of his sleeves, he took out all the photo papers in the pendant, and while explaining the purpose, handed it over to Shi Zhong.Shi Zhong took out the Polaroid and asked Shi Ran to tell her how to use it.

……

……

At the end of December, Pingcheng ushered in the first heavy snow this year.

This year's snow comes much later than in previous years, but the weather is colder than in previous years.

At Shi Ran's house, the windows were closed and the heating was adequate.

Shi Ran was wearing short sleeves, next to Liu Shanqing, eating the northeast big plate.Liu Shanqing was also wearing short-sleeved sleeves, and was holding a memorial in his hand, on which was written something about Jiaodong County, saying that a fairy scene appeared on the sea.

After reports of ghosts in the palace, alchemists who had been silent for several years began to become active again in the public eye.The theory of ghosts and longevity began to prevail among the people.

For example, the governor of Jiaodong County, in this memorial, in addition to writing about the fairyland on the sea, he also highly praised an alchemist named Xu Lu in the county, saying that this person is the reincarnation of an immortal and has the art of longevity.

The fairyland on the sea was summoned by this person with great mana.

"Is there Xu Fu in Da Sui?"

"No."

"It seems that this Xu Lu is Xu Fu who followed suit."

Liu Shanqing didn't answer, put down the memorial and said: "Sure enough, such people are inexhaustible."

"Have you dealt with it before?"

"When I first came to the throne, some of these alchemists created auspicious omens in various places, hoping to obtain official positions. Some of them deceived the public with lies, saying that the rooster sits in the morning, the world will be in chaos, and the country will perish."

"and then?"

"You order the people of the Black Ice Terrace to find out the bottom line of everyone, and those who are capable are admitted to the Academy of Sciences, and let them study gunpowder, or systematically sort out the methods of alchemy, and leave usable methods. No ability, no and Chaozhong Those who collude with the ministers will be imprisoned, exiled, or punished with hard labor. Those who collude with the ministers of the court will be killed together with the ministers of the court."

Shi Ran asked with a smile: "Then do you believe in immortality and immortals now?"

Liu Shanqing said in a slight silence: "I don't believe him, but the system you mentioned, and this pendant... What exactly is the system? Is it possible that the immortal is the system you mentioned?"

Shi Ran thought about it and said: "I don't talk about strange powers and gods, whether it's gods or immortals, in my opinion, they are actually synonymous with the unknown, and we make the unknown concrete and visualized. Just like mobile phones, TVs, surveillance, In a sense, isn’t it the clairvoyance and wind ear in ancient myths and legends?”

"The same is true for systems and pendants. You don't need to worry about what they are. Anyway, at present, there is no harm to us, only benefits, so you don't have to bother to get to the bottom of it. Think of it as mobile phones, cars, etc. Just provide a convenient tool.”

Liu Shanqing said: "I have seen records about immortal gods in a certain miscellaneous journal of Dasui before. Those descriptions, now that I think about it, are somewhat similar to the costumes of the astronauts here. Do you mean the so-called immortal gods? Is it an astronaut from another world?"

"It's possible," Shi Ran said, "I saw other people talking nonsense before, and said that we humans are the product of alien civilization experiments."

Liu Shanqing said: "In this way, the system should have been created by people from another world. Since they can create such a fetish as the system, maybe there is a way to live forever."

"Little Qingqing, your thinking is very dangerous. There are signs of being a fool," Shi Ran said. "Whether people in other time and space can live forever or not, it has nothing to do with us. At least we don't have a way of longevity here. Those who live forever are liars."

"King Qin is too worried. I am just curious about what kind of civilization can create a system. I am not very interested in longevity. In my opinion, if everyone can live forever, it will be a disaster for Yu Guo."

"If you can think like this, I'm relieved. If you really become a foolish king who pursues longevity, I really don't know what to do. I can't beat you up."

Liu Shanqing glanced at Shi Ran, and said calmly: "Whether you pursue longevity or not, with a treacherous minister like King Qin by his side, no matter how wise a king is, he will inevitably become a fool."

Shi Ran embraced Liu Shanqing, kissed Liu Shanqing's face with his sticky mouth after eating popsicles, and said with a smile: "I think the emperor is enjoying himself too."

Liu Shanqing wiped her face in disgust, and continued to read the memorial.

"Okay, you actually despise me."

Shi Ran deliberately kissed Liu Shanqing's face heavily again.

Liu Shan gave Shi Ran a pale look, but was too lazy to talk to Shi Ran.

Shi Ran relentlessly hugged Liu Shanqing and collapsed on the sofa.

After a while, Liu Shanqing sat up, picked up the memorial that fell on the ground with a blushing face, and continued to read the memorial with a calm and cool expression.

Satisfied, Shi Ran continued to hug Xiao Qingqing, picked up the phone, and flipped through it casually.

Liu Shanqing suddenly said: "It has been more than a month, and there is still no news from Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu. Will they..."

"No, if you have already sacrificed, there will be news from the Huns. Now that the Huns are retreating steadily, they urgently need good news to cheer up the army. In my opinion, it should be Zuo Shu's attention. They must be holding back .”

"Maybe, they can give us a big surprise like Huo Qubing."

"Hopefully."

There is no other way to think about it now.

When Le Fu was chased and intercepted by the 2 Huns, he tried to find Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu, but found nothing. Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu had [-] horses, as if the world had evaporated.

Now, Lefu is unable to find Zhang Ping and Zuo Shu one.

Because he was chased and intercepted by the 2 Huns, and only nearly 1 of the [-] horses were left. In addition, it was a time of bitter cold outside the Great Wall. Wan Dajun is already very difficult.

It is especially worth mentioning that while holding back the Huns' [-] troops, Lefu also took the opportunity to visit the holy place of the Huns, Langjuxu Mountain.

Also in Langjuxu Mountain, Lefu suffered heavy losses, with more than 5000 people sacrificed.

Of course, the Huns were not much better. Not only were the holy places destroyed, but they also lost more than 1 people.

Unfortunately, last week, Lefu accidentally bumped into the Huns army chasing Zhang Ping and Zuo Shuyi.

Although there are only more than 3 Huns left in this part of the Huns army, they have a well-organized system and their combat effectiveness is still strong.Le Fu had a wolf situation in the back, fought a bloody battle with it, and broke through.

The specific casualties of the two sides are unknown, the only thing that is certain is that Lefu is still safe, and now he is running desperately in the bitter cold desert, trying to get rid of the encircling Hun army behind him.

Shi Yuan doesn't know Le Fu's situation yet, he is still methodically encircling and annihilating the Xiongnu army.

The original Xiongnu Shanyu was poisoned by the internal response, and now the leader of the army is the original Zuo Xianwang.Although King Zuo Xian was talented, but under such unfavorable circumstances, he met Shi Yuan who was good at fighting, so naturally he retreated steadily.

Two weeks ago, Shi Yuan had completely driven the Huns out of Hexi.

Now, Shi Yuan is leading his troops to chase and kill the fleeing Xiongnu army with all their strength, braving the severe wind and snow.

Generally speaking, except for Zhang Ping and Zuo Shuyi who lost contact, the overall situation is good.

The war in South Vietnam is also very smooth. Chen Xi has already arrived in South Vietnam. Under his command, it is only a matter of time to eliminate the rebels, repel Luo Yue, and Western Europe.

And judging from the situation reported by Chen Xi and the information verified by Shi Zhong, the war will be completely ended and victory will be won in mid-January.

Shi Ran and Liu Shanqing could already think about how to reward Chen Xi and other soldiers.

The other soldiers said that Chen Xi was already a marquis, and if he went up, he would be a king.

Liu Shanqing couldn't give Chen Xi such a reward.

Because since the founding of Dasui, except for Shi Ran, no clan relatives or officials who have made great contributions to destroying the country have ever been crowned king.

Moreover, even Shi Ran was able to be crowned king justifiably by feigning death.

Shi Ran came up with a solution for this: set up the highest honor medal.

Life is for fame and fortune.

Men are even more so.

As a general, Chen Xi naturally longed for a high reputation.

The establishment of the highest honor medal just meets Chen Xi's needs.

When Shi Yuan wins and returns triumphantly, he can also reward Shi Yuan in this way.

Shi Ran also proposed to formulate a medal grading system, and let the common people all over the world know about this and the difficulty of obtaining the highest medal, so that they can praise how great Shi Yuan and Chen Xi who can get this medal are.

In this way, Shi Yuan and Chen Xi's vanity will be satisfied, and they will not complain about Liu Shanqing's meritorious deeds.

In addition, a martial arts temple or a meritorious minister's pavilion can also be established. Shi Ran will hint that Shi Yuan and Chen Xi have the opportunity to enter the martial arts temple or the meritorious minister's pavilion with this merit.

This should also reduce their dissatisfaction.

Listening to Shi Ran's suggestion, Liu Shanqing nodded repeatedly, secretly thinking that the dog's brain is good.

Whether it is the medal hierarchy, the martial arts temple, or the pavilion of meritorious officials, it can solve the problem of rewarding the soldiers. This not only gives the soldiers the rewards they deserve, but also prevents the soldiers from having power that could endanger them.

While thinking, Liu Shanqing discussed with Shi Ran the medal hierarchy, the evaluation criteria of the Martial Temple and the Court of Merit.

The phone rang suddenly, it was Fang Tianming's call.

"Hey, what's wrong?"

"Do you have time now? Try on the clothes for picking up the bride tomorrow, and then have dinner together in the evening to discuss about picking up the bride."

"Okay, I'll go now."

After hanging up the phone, Shi Ran said with a smile: "I almost forgot that Fang Tianming is getting married tomorrow. He asked me to try on the clothes that I will wear to meet the bride tomorrow. Come with me, and he even asked for dinner tonight."

Liu Shanqing has no objection.After getting dressed, Shi Ran drove to the bridal shop selected last time.

Fang Tianming has arrived, and he is chatting with the other three best men while trying on clothes.Among the three best men, Shi Ran and Liu Shanqing only knew Sun Changtian, and the other two were Fang Tianming's friends, so they had never met.

After a brief acquaintance, Shi Ran tried on the bright red robe that had been prepared and was very festive, and took it off after making sure that the clothes fit well.

In fact, in Shi Ran's opinion, he has already tried it before, so there is no need to try again.But since Fang Tianming wanted it, Shi Ran wouldn't have any objections.

After trying on clothes, I accompanied Fang Tianming to buy some things that were not yet ready. It was almost evening, and the sky was a little dark.

Fang Tianming led the way to the hotel. Su Su had already brought her best friend, who was tomorrow's bridesmaid, to sit in a warm box.Shi Ran and others walked to the door, but before they went in, they heard a woman's coquettish laughter coming from the box.

Sun Changtian and the two best men were a little excited and looking forward to how beautiful the bridesmaids in the box were.

Su Su's best friend group did not disappoint Sun Changtian and the two best men. They were all fair-skinned, beautiful and in good shape, but compared with Liu Shanqing, they checked several grades and lost their color.

The two best men felt that these bridesmaids were nothing more than that after seeing Liu Shanqing.

Sun Changtian didn't have such an idea, he consistently took advantage of this rare opportunity to strike up a conversation with the four bridesmaids.

Fang Tianming said on the phone before that the main purpose of having dinner tonight is to discuss the wedding reception tomorrow, and naturally only the best man and bridesmaid are invited.

Liu Shanqing didn't speak much the whole time, while eating the food that Shi Ran gave her, while listening to Shi Ran discussing the process of getting married with everyone.

Although Liu Shanqing doesn't like weddings too frivolously, she is still somewhat interested in the wedding process here.

For example, when picking up the bride, the bridesmaids will block the door, the groom will give red envelopes, the bridesmaids will set up tests, etc...

Liu Shanqing subconsciously compared it with Da Sui's wedding process, which didn't seem to be the case in Da Sui's wedding.

Immediately, Liu Shanqing was a little puzzled, why did they set up such a process?

Does it have any meaning?
