Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

"House of glory!"

After going to court, Fan Zheng proposed the title of House of Glory, which immediately caused an uproar in the military.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, joining the army and getting tattoos has been widely discriminated against among the people.

The saying "Good iron cannot be nailed, and good men should not be soldiers" is also spreading more and more widely. More and more people are unwilling to become soldiers. This results in the low quality of Song army soldiers and their weak combat effectiveness.

This situation was not unnoticed by the courtiers, but they were helpless. After all, it was the general trend to use culture to control force. After hundreds of years of evolution, these customs had become deeply ingrained and difficult to return to.

Of course, the court officials did not sit still and wait for death. Faced with the dilemma, they chose another path of no return, which was to expand the army!

When the Song Dynasty was first founded, the Forbidden Army was only 200,000. However, as the quality of the soldiers gradually declined, in order to have enough troops to resist foreign enemies, the Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty was expanded again and again. Today, the number of the Forbidden Army has increased four times.

The military expenses and weapons required for the 800,000 forbidden troops eventually formed a pattern of redundant troops and waste in the Song Dynasty.

However, who would have thought that the stubborn disease that left the elites of the Song Dynasty helpless would be cured by the evil doctor Fan Zheng with a small plaque.

The Yang family in Tianbo Mansion!

It had already been reported that Yang Bangyi, the eldest son of Yang, had won the top prize in martial arts, and the entire Yang family was filled with joy.

"Congratulations, old lady!"

Guests from the Yang family kept coming to congratulate him.

"Join us! Rejoice together!"

The old lady of the Yang family was smiling from ear to ear!

Tianbo Mansion has been in decline for too long, and has almost been forgotten by Kaifeng City. Fortunately, the opera "The Female Generals of the Yang Family" became popular and once again brought the Yang family back into the court's sight.

Nowadays, the imperial court is undergoing vigorous reforms and attaches great importance to martial arts and martial arts. Yang Bangyi has won the first prize in martial arts with both civil and military skills. The Tianbo Mansion will rise again and it is only a matter of time.

"Master Fan, the prefect of Kaifeng, has arrived!"

Suddenly a notification came, causing an uproar in Tianbo Mansion.

"Fan Chunli, the prefect of Kaifeng, the father of the evil doctor Fan Zheng!"

Everyone is talking about it. Fan Chunli, the prefect of Kaifeng, is not famous, but his identity as the father of the evil doctor Fan Zheng is even more famous.

"The Fan family can be said to be the benefactors of Tianbo Mansion. It seems that the Fan family is going to have a good relationship with the Yang family."

"The general the Fan family valued last time was General Di, but this time it is the Yang family. It seems that the Yang family is about to become prosperous."

........................

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and everyone in the world knew that Fan Zhongyan's support was indispensable for Di Qing's success back then, but now that the Fan family valued the Yang family so much, they couldn't help but stop thinking about it.

"Prefect Fan arrives at Tianbo Mansion, and Tianbo Mansion is in full bloom!"

After hearing this, the old lady of the Yang family came immediately with Yang Bangyi and solemnly thanked Fan Chunli.

"Yang Bangyi has met the prefect!" Yang Bangyi stepped forward and saluted Fan Chunli solemnly.

"You are indeed a good man from the Song Dynasty. Don't bury the expectations of the ancestors of the Yang family in the future." Fan Chunli reminded.

Yang Bangyi said with a solemn expression: "I will definitely not disappoint Mr. Fan's expectations."

Fan Chunli looked around the slightly dilapidated Tianbo Mansion and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"His Majesty has decreed that in order to commend the soldiers for protecting their families and the country, each government is responsible for making plaques of the House of Glory and distributing them to the families of the soldiers. The Yang family has served the country for a hundred years, and several generations of their sons have died on the battlefield. It is the home of martyrs, and the military A role model."

After Fan Chunli finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a team of yamen servants carried a plaque.

"House of glory!"

The four large gilded characters on the plaque are particularly dazzling.

The old lady of the Yang family couldn't help crying when she looked at these four big characters.

During the Song Dynasty, culture controlled military affairs, and the status of warriors was low. Especially when the men died in battle, leaving only orphans and widowed mothers, the warrior family was in a difficult situation.

Many of the Yang family's men died in battle, and the old, weak, women and children left behind were looked down upon. Now, the title of this glorious family immediately made everyone in the Yang family feel proud.

"Thank you, officials! The Yang family swears allegiance to the Song Dynasty to the death!"

Under the leadership of the old lady of the Yang family, everyone in the Yang family solemnly kowtowed in the direction of the palace.

After sending the gifts to the Yang family, Fan Chunli went to the general families of the Song Dynasty to deliver the plaques of the Glorious Family one by one. Even his second brother Fan Chunren also sent a plaque to his home.

"There are also soldiers on the side?"

Fan Chunren said in surprise.

Fan Zhengping now leads the Construction Corps, but it was transformed from the original Xiang soldiers, and now it is also awarded the title of Glory House by the imperial court.

Fan Chunli nodded solemnly and said: "More than that, no matter whether they are the Forbidden Army or the side soldiers, or even the widows of soldiers and retired veterans, as long as they have been affiliated with the military, they all have the plaque of the Glorious Home."

Fan Chunren said solemnly: "The official plan is very big!"

It would not be a surprise if they were just recruiting the Forbidden Army. However, the officials actually included both active and retired soldiers. Zhao Xu must have other plans.

Fan Chunli nodded slightly and looked to the west and north.

Obviously, the purpose of the officials to win over the military was to defend against Xixia and Liao. Now that the Song Dynasty already had Zhentian Lei, if the 800,000 forbidden troops worked together to fight for the officials, then the Song Dynasty and Liao Xia would not be able to fight. force.

........................

As the plaques of the Glory House were distributed to the people, brand-new plaques of the Glory House were hung on the house numbers of each soldier.

Many family members of soldiers were in tears. They had fought for the country for generations, but had been discriminated against. Now they have finally been recognized by the court.

At present, each family member of the soldiers regards the plaque of Glory House as a treasure and places it in the most conspicuous place in their home.

The glorious home is not gold or silver, but it cannot be compared with gold and cannot be exchanged for silver.

With the approval of the imperial court, the families of millions of soldiers can finally feel proud and proud in front of their neighbors.

"Thank you, Mrs. Fan, for this good plan, so that my millions of soldiers can hold their heads high!"

In Kaifeng City, in Fengle Tower, Zhong Pu, who had come to Beijing after a long journey, gave a solemn salute to Fan Zheng.

Most of Zhong Pu and the soldiers of the Western Expedition were Fan Zheng's comrades who fought against Xixia in Pingxia City, and they had life-and-death friendships. Now that the generals are in Beijing, Fan Zheng, as the supervisor, naturally has to show his loyalty to the landlord and entertain them with all his strength.

"The Lord Supervisor of the Army understands the thoughts of our officers and soldiers. Liu is more excited to receive the plaque of the Glorious Family from the imperial court than when I came to Kaifeng to receive the reward for my meritorious service." Next to Zhong Pu, a school captain said gratefully.

"That's it, I would rather bleed on the battlefield than see other people looking at me with disdainful eyes with tattoos on my face."

A school captain said rudely, but all the soldiers nodded with the same hatred.

Fan Zheng looked around at the light and heavy tattoos on everyone's faces and consoled them: "The imperial court has ordered the abolition of tattoos for officers to join the army. In the future, the tattoos on your faces will be the glory of joining the army."

All the captains suddenly beamed with joy. If they had said this in normal times, the generals would not have believed it. However, the imperial court had widely distributed the plaques of the Glory House to give them honorary recognition, and the complaints in the hearts of all the soldiers were immediately wiped away.
