walk into unscientific

Chapter 143 Do something while I'm free (9k words)
After hearing Xu Yun's greeting.

Old Su first glanced at Lao Jia and the others who were counting.

Following Xu Yun quietly left the study.

Then the two came to the courtyard, Xu Yun took the initiative to say:
"My lord, the issues involved by Mr. Tongyu and others are quite difficult, and it may take more than a few days this time.

The villain speaks lightly, so I hope the master can persuade Mr. Tongyu a few more words, so that he doesn't hurt his body because of it. "

Xu Yun said these words very seriously, he was really afraid that something would happen to Lao Jia and the others.

Throughout ancient and modern China and foreign countries.

Most people who do research have a common problem.

To use a certain idiom to describe it, it is easy to see Lie Xinxi:
When encountering a problem that they are interested in, not only like to get to the bottom of it, but also often ignore the time, and even affect the biological clock.

In fact, Xu Yun is also this kind of person.

Don't say far.

Let’s just talk about the recent research and development of the fifth generation of bariatric insect forest.

During the most critical stages, Xu Yun, Qiu Sheng, Zhou Peiyao and others hardly had a good rest.

Like Qiu Sheng, they simply spread a sleeping bag in the lounge next door, and everyone took turns to be on duty at night.

Xu Yun knew better than anyone else how attractive the questions he raised were to Lao Jia and the others, not to mention that he also wrote several half-solved formulas.

The truth is like a mountain peak on a foggy day.

While the clouds and mists are lingering, one can still see the reality within reach.

So Xu Yun dare to guarantee.

If Lao Jia and the others were not watching to dissuade them, they would definitely calculate the results day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep all day long.

If Lao Jia is Xiao Jia, then it is relatively easy to handle.

Young people, it’s okay to stay up all night once or twice.

But Lao Jia is now **[-] years old, and his bones really can't bear such a toss.

If no one is staring at this old man, maybe he can really show off a wave of coquettish maneuvers that are fatal to Wen Daoxi.

If so.

At that time, Lao Jia may shout that it is good to have a smile, but Xu Yun will have no place to cry.

Therefore, due to emotion and reason, he can't let these old men whose average age is about the same age as AC Milan's defense line let themselves go.

Old Su obviously understood this too, after all, he was one of the people who had experienced it.

I saw that he didn't hesitate much, nodded cleanly, and said:
"No problem, just leave this matter to the old man, and they will still listen to what the old man says."

Only then did Xu Yun let go of his distraction slightly, and then pretended to ask casually:

"By the way, master, will His Royal Highness Jian Wang come to class tomorrow?"

According to Xu Yun's previous agreement with Xiaoli Xiaozhao and others.

The three-person class is held once every three days on average. During this period, Xu Yun will leave some "homework" for them to go home and spend two days digesting the knowledge thoroughly.

For Xiao Zhao and Xiao Li, this frequency is better than one class a day.

As for Sue.
It is one lesson a day, or even several lessons a day.

After all, his studies are quite complicated, and the three-person class is still mainly based on physics, with different directions and orientations.

And tomorrow is the start day of the three-person class, so it is normal for Xu Yun, as the 'teacher in charge', to care about the students' situation.

Old Su was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and looked around a few times.

He led Xu Yun to a more secluded corner, and said:

"Little Wang, you have to be prepared, His Majesty King Jian. I'm afraid you will be absent from the hall tomorrow."

Xu Yun's heart froze, and he asked:

"Master, the Queen Mother's phoenix body has not recovered yet?"

Old Su shook his head, he didn't want to talk at first.

But thinking of Xu Yun's background, he finally said concisely:

"It's not very optimistic."

After hearing the news from Xiao Zhao earlier, he specially asked someone to inquire about the situation in the palace.

Although he has stepped down as prime minister for nearly two years, he still has connections in the court, so he has learned more about the inside story.

One of the most critical pieces of information is
The queen mother not only fell this time, but also fell quite seriously:
Since there was only one supporting leg when getting out of bed at night, after losing her center of gravity, the Queen Mother even hit her head on the edge of the bed.

Don't look at the wooden bed you sleep on these days, the bed is made of top-notch oiled agarwood!

Agarwood Agarwood.

It refers to the fragrant wood that sinks in the water, which is a kind of wood with extremely high density.

without buffering.

The head collided with a large piece of thick agarwood, and the injury was not much worse than hitting a stone.

In the words of later generations it is.
In addition to the bone fracture and blood conduction problems that may be caused by the wrestling, the Queen Mother also suffered a concussion.

Therefore, the queen mother fell into a coma for a while, so the palace called Xiao Zhao over urgently, just in case.

At the same time, even Xiao Li can hear this kind of news, which shows that there must be a pusher behind him who is trying to push the news out, and the more people who want to know, the better.

thought here.

Old Su couldn't help but sighed complicatedly.

Less than four months after Emperor Zhezong passed away, another heavyweight in the palace had an accident.
Although from a personal point of view, Lao Su is also somewhat dissatisfied with the choice of identifying Song Huizong's accession to the queen mother, thinking that it is difficult for King Duan to take on a big role.

But apart from this.

In fact, the queen mother is not a big problem.

One could even say so.

The current Song court must rely on the experience and methods of the queen mother to make the transition, and the transfer of power can never be too peaceful.

It's really stormy.
Looking at Old Su who was unwilling to discuss in depth, Xu Yun was thoughtful.

Although he didn't know the details, the historical Empress Dowager Xiang only lived half a year longer - there is a high probability that no wrestling occurred.

So it's obvious.

Today's Empress Dowager Xiang, the situation is not optimistic, and may even be a little critical.

And this way.

The pressure that Xiao Zhao has to face has suddenly increased a lot.

After all, according to the normal historical trajectory.

If the Queen Mother dies early next year, Liu Kuang will denounce Deng Duo in July.

The prison case at Prince Cai's Mansion broke out, Deng Duo and many of Xiao Zhao's right-hand men were sentenced to death, and Song Huizong and Xiao Zhao brothers fought against each other.

In other words.

After the death of Empress Dowager Xiang, Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty spent about six months clearing up some resistance, or the larger resistance, and then turned his attention to his biggest remaining competitor.

To know.

When the prison case at Prince Cai's Mansion broke out, Xiao Zhao's biological mother and biggest backer, Mrs. Zhu, was still a year away from her death, which was far from the most suitable time in theory.

At this time, Song Huizong started to work, indicating that some links have been dealt with almost.

In other words.
There is not much time left for Xu Yun to do certain things.

thought here.

Xu Yun couldn't help taking a deep breath, and said to Old Su:

"Master, the villain wants to go out for a while, and I hope the master will allow it."

"Going out?"

When Old Su heard this, he was taken aback by surprise.
It has been more than ten days since Xu Yun arrived at the mansion, and now as a guest, it is very easy to enter and leave the mansion.

Unlike servants, who can only go out when they are working.

However, except for the time he went to find Xiao Li, he never stepped out of the house again.

Of course.

This also has something to do with Lao Su pestering him in class and Wang Yue's condition.

Knowing that Xu Yun was going out now, Lao Su quickly came back to his senses and nodded sharply:

"Xiao Wang, you have already entered the guest list. If you want to go out, just tell the concierge. You don't need to report to the old man."

Then he suddenly thought of something and added:
"...Could it be that there is a need for gold and silver, and you don't have enough money?"

Xu Yun quickly shook his head and said:

"It has nothing to do with money, but the villain wants to borrow the master's invitation to visit someone in Beijing."

Greeting posts, this is an indispensable tool for communication between the ancient dignitaries.

The worship post originated in the Han Dynasty. At that time, the name, residence, etc. were written on the flattened wooden sticks.

Therefore, it is also called "famous thorn".

After the invention of papermaking, the post materials were gradually replaced by paper.

The form of the greeting post is very demanding, generally it is title + position + native place + name + word + honorific word + worship.

For example, "Hu Jianren, a well-known long-term contract writer at the starting point, pays homage to the reader's lord" and so on.

In addition, a seal is usually affixed to the greeting card, which can be regarded as a very formal and useful visiting tool.

Of course.

Now that Lao Su has resigned from office, the nature of the invitation is not as important as when he was an official, so he doesn't have to follow him personally.

For example, when he went to Xiao Li's house to pick up books earlier, Mr. Xie gave Yong Zhu a greeting card.

Therefore, in the face of Xu Yun's request, Lao Su was silent for a moment, and did not directly refuse, but asked:

"Come on the post? Which noble person do you want to visit?"

Xu Yun shook his head, leaned forward and said his name in a low voice:
"It's not the dignitaries of the dynasty, but"

"What, visit him?"

Old Su was taken aback when he heard the words, then frowned, and said in surprise:

"This person is not simple. When I was in the church, I rarely interacted with such people. Now I am an official."

"The villain suddenly remembered a letter last night, which recorded a meteor called Halley's Comet, as well as several rare star maps"

"In the first year, where is the old man's invitation? Find it quickly!"

After half an hour.

Xu Yun called Zhang San, and left Su Mansion through the main entrance.

As one of Lao Su's followers, Xu Yun can actually enjoy carriage benefits when traveling.

Naihe mentioned it before.

There is only one carriage in Lao Su's house, which was taken by Lao Su's son Xiao Su No. [-] today.

Therefore, Xu Yun could only choose to take a few more steps and go to a carriage and horse shop to rent a carriage to drive on the road, similar to taxiing in later generations.

Of course.

The fare was still reimbursed by Lao Su.

As the third-class "substitute" servant, Xiao San'er has many opportunities to go out, but he has only ever been in a carriage that pulls grain and grass in his life.

Therefore, when I suddenly heard that there was a real carriage to sit in, the whole person was immediately excited:
"Brother Wang, where are we going this time?"

Xu Yun handed him a note with the address on it, and said:

"Have you ever been to this place?"

Zhang San took a glance at the note, and scratched his head in embarrassment:

"Brother Wang, I can't read"

Xu Yun patted his forehead suddenly, took back the note, and read:
"Hewang Alley next to Wuqi Temple on Pupa Road Street."

"Oh, Wu Qimiao, I know where it is."

Hearing this name, Xiao San'er immediately clapped his hands:

"We still have to enter Suzaku Gate, but last time we went east, this time we have to walk west along the Bian River, which is almost close to the boundary of Zhengmen.

Brother Wang, which big businessman's house are we going to this time? "

Xu Yun glanced at him with a smile, and asked as he walked:
"how you said that?"

Xiao San'er pointed in a certain direction. Nowadays, there are basically no buildings with more than two floors in Bianjing City, so there is a five-story building in the distance that is quite conspicuous:

"Fanlou is right there, and after crossing Xijiaolou Street, there are Yushitai and Xishangshusheng next to it. A house there costs tens of thousands of miles!"

Hearing this number, Xu Yun couldn't help being startled:

"Good guy, how many tens of thousands does a house cost?"

Xiao San'er nodded vigorously, with a trace of envy in his eyes:
"Yes, it's the most expensive piece of land in Beijing."

Xu Yun glanced at Fanlou again, that is, the famous Fanlou in later generations, the surprise in his eyes still did not fade away.

In fact, he didn't know that.

At this time, the housing prices in the Northern Song Dynasty were not comparable to those of later generations.

In the early Northern Song Dynasty.

The price of an ordinary house in Bianjing is around [-] yuan, which is not expensive, because it is a house where several or even a dozen people live together.

The comprehensive price is about 100 to [-] million in later generations, which is still acceptable.

But in the late Northern Song Dynasty.

Bianjing's housing prices have gone crazy, and they have risen a lot in a year.

According to the estimates in "Song Dynasty Urban Studies" published by Professor Bao Weimin of the School of History of Renmin University of China in 2014.

The population density of Bianjing in the late Northern Song Dynasty even reached 12000-13000 people per square kilometer.

To know.

Even in the later generations of Yanjing, where enthusiastic people gather, the population density is only seven to eight thousand per square kilometer.

When Ouyang Xiu was serving as the presiding judge of the Admonition Court and the Dengwen Drum Court, he could only choose to rent a house.

Another person who had a deep resentment about the house was Lao Su's good friend, Su Zhe, Su Shi's younger brother.

That is, Lao Su, the younger brother of Lao Su's friend Lao Su.

Su Zhe, like Bai Juyi who wrote poems and complained about presbyopia before, also wrote poems and complained about housing prices more than once.

For example, "I am old and have not owned a house, and the scholars think it is a word."

And "I have no house in my 80s, and I am in chaos. My children and grandchildren are [-] years old, and I can be a ten-year guest when the house is completed" and so on.

Su Zhe's resentment lasted until his later years, and he built three new houses in Xuzhou.

The result was not happy for several months.

In the following year, an earthquake occurred in Xuzhou, which caused landslides and all the houses collapsed.
what a sad story
The line of sight returns to the original place.

all in all.

It is obviously impossible to buy a house in the center of Bianjing in this era without any financial resources.

Even Xiao San'er knows this concept.

Then the two walked for about a kilometer, and finally came to a car dealer.

"Boss, please come here."

After entering the carriage.

Xu Yun first looked at the various carriages inside, and asked an old man in purple clothes who looked like a manager:
"How much is it to rent a carriage?"

The old man walked over with a smile, and cupped his hands towards Xu Yun:
"My lord, there are more than [-] horse-drawn carriages in the little old horse shop, which are divided into two types: long-distance travel and short-term rental.

If you choose to go far, Xiao Lao can also provide some escorts to accompany you."

Xu Yun shook his head and interrupted:

"Short-term rental is fine."

The expression of the old man in purple didn't change much, and he led Xu Yun to a corner:
"As you can see, the several carriages here can be rented short-term.

If you are coming to Beijing from other places and want to make connections or visit old friends, Xiao Lao suggested to choose these luxurious carriages carried by good horses.

If it is just a temporary journey, you only need to choose an ordinary pack horse, and the price is much cheaper. "

Xu Yun looked at the ordinary carriages, pointed at one casually and said:

"How much is the rental price?"

"Starting at [-] Wen, rent for half a day."

"Certificates?"

"of course can."

Xu Yun nodded slightly.

The degree of commercial development in the Song Dynasty can be seen from this carriage and horse dealership.

Then he tried to cut the price for a long time, and after arguing hard, he got two pennies cheaper.

Counting the cost of tea during the period, about four pennies in blood.

After negotiating the price.

The old man summoned the coachman and asked Xu Yun to tell him the address, and the two parties paid the money.

Then, under the driver's driving, the carriage slowly headed west.

The planning of Bianjing in the Song Dynasty is somewhat similar to that of later generations, especially on the main road in central Beijing where the Suzaku Gate is located, sidewalks and roads for carriages and horses are clearly planned.

Therefore, even though there were many pedestrians coming and going, the carriage still easily drove into the Royal Street.

in 1988.

The Junyi Municipal Government once built a retro Song Dynasty commercial street in the northern section of Zhongshan Road in Longting District, which is Songduyu Street.

Except for the green belt, this Royal Street in the Song Dynasty has basically restored the style of the Royal Street in the Song Dynasty.

It is an ancient project with a relatively high degree of local restoration.

Therefore, if there is a chance, the few students may wish to go around.

Of course.

Don't buy what's in it, it's a scam.

Da da da--

After the carriage drove for about half an hour.

I saw the shaking carriage stabilized, and the groom's voice came from outside:

"My lord, we have arrived at the place you said."

Xu Yun beckoned the eye-opening little San'er to get off the car, and bowed politely to the groom.

Then he looked at the building in front of him.

This is a rather large mansion with high walls and luxurious decoration.

But it is worth noting
The lion before the gate has no curly mane.

Xu Yun looked at the front door and thought for a moment, then handed Xiao San'er some copper coins, and said:

"Third brother, you can go to the neighborhood and buy some food, and wait for me outside with this coachman brother, don't run too far."

After explaining these.

He went to the gate and knocked on it:
"Is anyone here?"

After a while.

A baffle of the door was pulled open, and a young voice came from inside:

"Who?"

Xu Yun passed the greeting card through it and said:
"This little brother, I'm sorry to bother you, the prince's young master, the doorman of Zhao Jungong's mansion, wants to see the owner of this house."

"Mr. Zhao?"

At this time, Lao Su had left the court for about two years, and some of the newly promoted concierges may not have an impression of this title, after all, the county is actually a very broad title these days.

However, seeing that Xu Yun's speech and complexion did not look like ordinary servants, the concierge hesitated for a moment, and decided to report it.

I saw him coldly drop a sentence:

"You wait here, I will report to the master."

click-

Seeing the baffle closed again, Xu Yun couldn't help feeling slightly dumbfounded.

To know.

When he went to Xiao Li's house as a servant before, the concierge named Uncle Qin didn't show them any face.

Now that his status has been promoted to a doorman, he is despised instead.

"The ancients said that one can see the whole leopard. It seems that this master is not an easy person to deal with. But after all, it is him, so it is normal."

About a quarter of an hour passed.

crunch--

The left side door was opened.

The male servant with a fair face sticks out his head, his tone is still neither cold nor cold:

"come in."

Xu Yun was not annoyed, he thanked the boy, and walked into the mansion through the side door.

As a result, as soon as he entered the door, the servant stopped him.

The boy stretched out his hand straight away, his fair face was full of impatience, and he asked:
"Wait a minute, what about the gift list?"

Xu Yun blinked:

"Clam?"

Seeing this, the boy's expression suddenly sank:
"When I came to visit the master, your master didn't even prepare for the door ceremony? Didn't you know the rules? Or was it because of you?"

Xu Yun raised his eyelids and glanced at the servant.

Even though he has a good self-cultivation, he couldn't help frowning at this time:

"A welcome ceremony? Did your master say it himself?"

"This is the rule to follow in the mansion"

"rule?"

Xu Yun sneered:
"The city of Xinglong, under the feet of the Son of Heaven, the scorching sun is shining brightly. How dare you, a little concierge, speak nonsense about the rules?"

"you"

"What me? Let me ask you again, your master has no official status and no military exploits. In broad daylight, a servant like you dares to ask for a bribe from Duke Zhezong, who was personally appointed by Emperor Zhezong. Is this called a rule?"

"Do you know that back then when the county princes had pleated waists, rulers ruled the world, and culture and education flourished, your master was nothing more than an illiterate village boy in the countryside, but now he wears monkeys and wears the crown. Is this called the rule?"

Said here.

Xu Yun couldn't help but glanced at this person, and uncommonly raised the banner:

"Do you want me to take you to Junyi Mansion, and ask Mr. Fu Yin to comment on the real rules? ——Oh, by the way, Mr. Fu Yin is also my master's disciple."

He didn't have a good impression of the person he was looking for today, and in a sense, this person was also one of the culprits who died suddenly in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Now that he met an evil servant, he vented all the anger in his heart.

Anyway, it doesn't matter how vicious it is to slap this kind of culprit.

And the other side.

Every time Xu Yun said a word, the boy's face became stiffer.

When passing the greeting card earlier, the master was a little moved at first, but after hearing that it was just a young man who came to the door, he let him lead him in casually.

Neither made any other explanations nor mentioned the identity of the other party.

Therefore, the young man thought that the other party was of ordinary background, and had the idea of ​​bullying others, wanting to get some extra money for himself.

But did not expect
The other party seems to be really a stubble?
After all, Xu Yun is full of confidence, and he can still understand the words "Zai Zhi Tian Xia".

This is the prime minister!
Even if there is a "before" in front of it, it is not something ordinary people can afford.

Master misunderstood me!

thought here.

He couldn't help but cringe and cupped his hands towards Xu Yun, apologizing:
"Young Master, please calm down. A villain has eyes that don't recognize Mount Tai. I hope that you will forgive me, forgive your sins, and make atonement."

Xu Yun glanced at him, then shook his head lightly:

"Then lead the way ahead?"

The little servant nodded repeatedly, and bowed his body to attract the road.

Then the two walked through two courtyards and came to a house:

"Master, the distinguished guest has already arrived."

After a while.

There was a soft voice in the room:

"Let him in."

The servant made a gesture of invitation very obsequiously.

Xu Yun glanced at him and straightened his collar.

strode into the house.

Only at this moment.

There was a man sitting in the room. Due to his dim vision, he couldn't see his clothes and appearance clearly.

See Xu Yun enter.

The person first sized him up briefly, then asked casually:

"I don't know if Zhao Jungong sent a little brother here, what's the important thing to talk about?"

Xu Yun was silent for a moment, took out a letter from his body, and handed it to the man:

"You'll know when you read it."

The man's brows suddenly frowned slightly.

In ancient China, there were many ways for visitors to address their hosts.

Such as Mr. XX, Mr. XX or Your Majesty, etc.

Directly using "you" to express, firstly, the grammar is rare, and secondly, it is also somewhat impolite.

For example, when men address Xu Yun, they always use the word "little brother", which is a basic courtesy.

In addition, men are often flattered by others on weekdays, so when they heard Xu Yun's "you", I felt a little unhappy.

However, considering that this person represented Lao Su, the man still snorted coldly and took the letter.

I plan to read the content before deciding on the next attitude.

If this person is just an ordinary servant.
hiss-

The man opened the envelope and looked at the contents with a frown.

But watch and watch.

His expression gradually changed.

I saw that he was surprised at first, and then a sluggishness appeared.

After reading the entire letter.

All that was left on his expression was utter horror, his hands shaking like Parkinson's.

pop-

Perhaps because of his panic, the man slipped off his seat without sitting still.

However, his mind was not at all on his posture.

Sitting paralyzed on the ground, he stretched out his index finger and pointed at Xu Yun tremblingly:
"Who are you? Are you a human or a ghost? Ah? Are you a human or a ghost?!"

Xu Yunjian said, spreading his hands towards him:
"Of course people."

Gollum—

The man swallowed heavily, and asked fearfully:
"Then what is your purpose in writing this letter?"

When Xu Yun heard this, the corners of Xu Yun's mouth slightly raised a mysterious arc.

Then he stepped forward and said in a voice that the reader could not hear:
"So so. So so"
