Chapter 876 – Medical Saint Zhang Zhongjing
Just as Wang Zhaojun was hesitating, Ouyang Shuo spoke once more.
”Zhaojun, did you think about what you want to do in the future?”
”Ah?” Wang Zhaojun was stunned, and her face turned red; the script was not right. Luckily, she had been through many situations in her last life, so she quickly calmed down and respectfully said, ”I was a court lady. If the king does not mind, I'm willing to be a court lady in the palace.”
Wang Zhaojun had no relatives in Shanhai City. As such, apart from entering the palace, she did not know what she could do. In ancient times, a girl's beauty would often invite big trouble, especially girls that were as pretty as her.
Apart from inviting tragedy, beauties often had short lives.
With the protection of Mulan Yue in Zhen An Prefecture, she avoided a lot of problems. This was also the reason why she accepted Mulan Yue's suggestion and came over to Shanhai City.
According to Mulan Yue, only the king could protect her.
When Ouyang Shuo heard that, he shook his head. He did not dare accept her as a court lady. Even though Song Jia was magnanimous, she probably could not accept such a beauty by his side.
”Do you like playing the pipa and singing?” Ouyang Shuo asked.
Wang Zhaojun was shocked. She did not know why the king was asking about that.
When Ouyang Shuo saw her reaction, he explained, ”With your looks, it's a waste of your talent. I have a good place, just that I do not know whether you are willing or not.”
He continued to describe the modern day singer job to her.
This time, not only Wang Zhaojun was stunned, but even Tsing Yi raised her head. Her eyes opened wide, and she looked at Ouyang Shuo like she was looking like at a monster.
The outside world always had rumors that one of the reasons why the Great Xia Dynasty could walk till today was because of Ouyang Shuo. His thinking was special and out of the box.
But this time, it was a little too far out of the box.
”Develop Wang Zhaojun into a star? To think he actually thought of that.” Tsing Yi tipped her hat to him for thinking of something like that.
Although she did not dare to believe it, Tsing Yi could not help but imagine the scene of Wang Zhaojun singing on stage. After having such a thought, she was actually looking forward to it.
”Then I'll try?”
Wang Zhaojun did not know how to reject and could only give such an answer.
Ouyang Shuo knew that this matter could not be rushed, so he smiled as he said, ”Great. As for the specifics, I'll get the queen to explain them to you.”
”Yes my king!”
When Wang Zhaojun saw that, she took her leave. However, she did not know that from that moment on, her fate had taken an 180 degrees turn.
A superstar was slowly rising up.
Looking at Wang Zhaojun's back view, Ouyang Shuo thought about Mulan Yue, who had recommended her. She had been a Governor for a year and a half, and she had done really well.
Along with her contribution of recommending Wang Zhaojun, Ouyang Shuo wanted to promote her to Provincial Governor of Morocco.
Morocco was alone outside, so the Provincial Governor he chose had to be someone he trusted. If one talked about trust, Mulan Yue was one of the people he trusted the most.
As for ability, they could follow the early Zhen An Prefecture and assign her some strong supporting staff. The truth proved that she was a really exceptional political talent.
In this year and a half, Zhen An Prefecture had been run really well, exceeding Ouyang Shuo's expectations.
However, Morocco was located overseas, so he needed to seek her opinion. Thinking of which, he turned around and said to Tsing Yi, ”Summon Zhen An Prefecture Governor Mulan Yue, ask her to set off and come back to the imperial city.” Zhen An Prefecture did not have a teleportation formation, so she could not reach Shanhai City immediately.
”Yes my king!”
A look of doubt appeared in Tsing Yi's eyes, but she still nodded. Logically speaking, it was still the 5th month, so it should not be the time for Governor debriefs. It seemed like the king had other reasons for calling her back.
As the advisor of the Secret Documents Pavilion, Tsing Yi knew her place and knew what should be asked and what should not.
...
After sending away Wang Zhaojun, the second person Ouyang Shuo met was a general. The famous Fubo General Ma Yuan. He was the descendent of Zhao She and the ancestor of the Xiliang Five Ma.
Ma Yuan was a famous military person from the end of West Han to the starting years of East Han. He was one of the contributors to the establishment of East Han.
During the ending years of West Han, the world was in chaos, and Ma Yuan was the subordinate of Kui Xiao, gaining his trust. After which he, followed Liu Xiu and helped him unify the country.
After unifying the country, Ma Yuan was already really old but sought to continue, fighting the Qiang people in the west and stopping problems in the south. As a result of his merits, he was given the title of Xingxi Lord and was nicknamed by the people as Ma Fupo.
”I am General Ma Yuan, greetings to the king!”
The Ma Yuan that entered the wilderness was close to 50. Considering Zhao She, Zhao Kuo, and the Xiliang Five horses, a total of eight people of the Ma family had joined the Great Xia Dynasty.
The reason Ma Yuan came over was firstly because of Zhao She, Ma Chao, and others, who were working for the Great Xia Dynasty; they had kept in contact. Secondly, the Great Xia Dynasty had just established the country, so they naturally attracted many.
”General please rise!”
Ouyang Shuo was really respectful toward Ma Yuan, as he could be considered a crucial person in the Ma family. Moreover, Morocco was current reorganizing the military and needed such an experienced general.
In history, although Ma Yuan could not be considered a legendary general, he was still a great one.
