The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Zhang Yaozuo reported and was taken to see Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng told the rules of Kaifeng Mansion very honestly, which made Zhang Yaozuo unbelievable.

For a majestic yamen, it is enough to turn the place into a vegetable field, but even let officials of all sizes grow vegetables.Just when Zhang Yaozuo wanted to ask for a long leave, Bao Zheng already said meaningfully that he had consulted with the officials, and if there were no major problems, it was best not to ask for leave.

——If you ask for leave, it is tantamount to admitting that you are not in good health. Since you are not in good health, you should not come out to work in the future.

Zhang Yaozuo trembled, how dare he ask for leave.

But if you don’t ask for leave, there are only two things to do, either obediently be a pusher, learn to try cases, or you can grow vegetables.

No matter which one, Zhang Yaozuo doesn't want to do it!

Zhang Yaozuo left Bao Zheng's study in a trance, and someone took him to hand over the affairs. Zhang Yaozuo saw that the files were densely packed, more than he had in a month in Heyang.

This is natural, the busyness of Kaifeng mansion is unmatched by other places.

Zhang Yaozuo sat down to read the file, but felt a splitting headache and wanted to escape, so he couldn't help but put down his things, and stood on the porch to breathe fresh air - bah, the air is not fresh at all, it smells like a vegetable field.

At this time, Zhang Yaozuo saw that Bao Zheng also appeared in the vegetable field, and he rolled up his sleeves to water it.

When Bao Zheng saw Zhang Yaozuo, he said calmly: "The government is tired from the trial, so come and work. Since Zhang Tuiguan is fine, why don't you come together."

Bao Zheng is now Zhang Yaozuo's direct boss, and he may sue Renzong at any time. Even if Zhang Yaozuo has a hundred or a thousand dissatisfaction, he can only hold back, thinking why he is so unlucky, and obediently walked over.

Bao Zheng ordered people to give the hoe to Zhang Yaozuo, and set aside a piece of land for him to loosen the soil.

Holding the hoe, Zhang Yaozuo dug the soil in a strange way, but he was tired after just two strokes, and his palms ached.

Bao Zheng caught a glimpse and shook his head secretly.Nowadays, many literati are getting weaker and weaker.Of course, if you don't know whether Zhang Yaozuo is considered a serious literati, his place in the imperial examination is basically obtained by nepotism.

Bao Zheng said: "The vegetable field in Kaifeng Mansion can improve the food of colleagues, and sell the rest, and earn a lot of income every year. Several yamen have already followed the example of Kaifeng Mansion. Let’s go to the cafeteria to eat.”

Zhang Yaozuo was secretly surprised, how much can this kind of food earn, and there are still Yamen to follow suit?

He didn't know that the leaders of other yamen would not grow vegetables like Bao Zheng, just like the atmosphere of Kaifeng Mansion.

And what canteen.Zhang Yaozuo thought to himself in his heart, he had heard that the cafeteria in Kaifeng Mansion was famous in the past, but he didn't know if it was a rumor or if it was really that good.

Based on his years of experience as an official, there are really few canteens that are delicious.

Zhang Yaozuo really decided to eat here at noon and try the famous Kaifeng canteen dishes.

After Bao Zheng left, he left Gongsun Ce behind and told him to accompany Zhang Yaozuo, but actually he was staring at what Zhang Yaozuo was doing.

If Zhang Yaozuo refused to read the dossier, he had to come to hoe the ground; if he didn't want to hoe the ground, he had to read the dossier carefully, and Gongsun Ce could assist him.

Now, there was no chance to be lazy, Zhang Yaozuo went back and forth several times, and felt that both of them were extremely painful, one was mental pain and the other was physical pain.

Before Zhang Yaozuo thought of comparing the two pains and which one to choose, it was already time for dinner.

Zhang Yaozuo was refreshed, let's go eat first.He took a look at Gongsun Ce——this ghost master looks gentle and polite, but after dealing with him, he knows that he is no easier to deal with than Bao Zheng, and he is very difficult to deal with!

As if he didn't know anything, Gongsun Ce smiled and invited Zhang Yaozuo to go with him.

Zhang Yaozuo also smirked, and walked to the cafeteria with him.

As soon as Zhang Yaozuo entered the cafeteria, he could smell the aroma of food. He was also tired all morning, and his stomach immediately growled.He glanced at the four words hanging on the wall, he was confused, the inscription was Bao Zheng, and he was thinking, when Gongsun Ce had already brought the food.

"It happens to be a famous dish from the cafeteria today, so I'm so confused." Gongsun Ce introduced.

So it's rare to be confused referring to this?Zhang Yaozuo's heart moved, and after thanking him, he scooped up the duck paste with a spoon and ate it.

"Good, good!" Zhang Yaozuo praised, "Although it is a mess, the taste is distinct and tender. I have tried all kinds of food, but I have never eaten such an interesting dish. The chef is really ingenious."

Gongsun Ce said with a chuckle: "Many of the dishes in the cafeteria of our Kaifeng Mansion are provided by an official."

"Then this person must be a master of cooking pots!" Zhang Yaozuo knows nothing about eating, drinking, and having fun. This dish alone made him feel that the canteen of Kaifeng Mansion really lived up to its name, which probably can be counted as It must have been some consolation from his miserable life in Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhang Yaozuo sighed in his heart while tasting other dishes.Halfway through the meal, Gongsun Ce said he had something to do and left early.Zhang Yaozuo was busy eating, so he was polite.

As soon as Gongsun Ce left, Zhang Yaozuo noticed that Yun Yanhui had also appeared at some point, looking for a place with food, accompanied by a big fool.

Zhang Yaozuo looked at Yunyan back very resentfully, and found that he had found a seat by the window and sat down, and the silly big man was also sitting beside him.

It's just that the other party didn't seem to notice him, so after watching for a long time without getting a response, Zhang Yaozuo could only continue eating sullenly.

After eating all the food, Zhang Yaozuo poured a cup of tea and drank it while rubbing his belly. Then he found that the canteen of Kaifeng Mansion was really extravagant, and what he offered was scented tea, chrysanthemum.

Alas, I also clear the heat and defeat the fire.Zhang Yaozuo thought about it, and took a big gulp.

At this time, a figure sat down in front of him, Zhang Yaozuo looked up, but it was Yun Yan who came back, he almost choked on the tea, put down the cup quickly, and said with a sullen face, "I don't seem to have invited you to sit down."

Yun Yanhui not only sat down, but after hearing Zhang Yaozuo's words, he also put his legs on the back of the chair next to him provocatively, "Officer Zhang Tui, this is the cafeteria, not anyone's private territory."

Zhang Yaozuo stared at him.

Yun Yan returned but continued leisurely: "Even if anyone can drive someone away, it's not you, it should be me."

Zhang Yaozuo: "??"

Yun Yan replied with a grin and said: "Before I was guarding the gate, I was in the demolition office of Kaifeng mansion. Before the demolition office, I was in Tianqingguan. When I was in Tianqingguan, I also worked part-time for Kaifeng mansion to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Growing vegetables in the mansion, and The improvement of the food standard in the cafeteria is all a little bit of my achievements.”

Zhang Yaozuo's face suddenly darkened - no wonder Gongsun Ce's expression was so subtle before, so he praised Yunyan Hui for a long time?Also, the culprit who made him tired all morning was also Yun Yanhui?

Before Zhang Yaozuo could make it clear, Yun Yan added another sentence: "I have said so much, but I actually want to express that I have a very good relationship with the people in the cafeteria. Tsk, tell me, if I don't like anyone, I will I don’t know how to put medicine in meals...don’t look at me like that, it’s against the law to take medicine, so...spit?"

"Ouch—" Zhang Yaozuo covered his mouth and rushed out to vomit.

Halfway through vomiting, Zhang Yaozuo suddenly thought that Gongsun Ce brought his food, and he chose one of them himself. Therefore, it is impossible for Yun Yanhui to know what he ate, and then spit on it!

cheated!

Zhang Yaozuo got up bitterly, planning to fight back with Yunyan!Otherwise, even if he can keep his official position, if people know that he is being bullied by a petty official, where will he put his face?

Zhang Yaozuo walked towards the gate aggressively, only to see Yun Yanhui also coming out, with that stupid big guy still on his shoulders.

Zhang Yaozuo, who was just about to call out "little bastard", suddenly felt something was wrong. He took a closer look at the "big guy", and immediately broke out in sweat. Damn, what a big guy, isn't this the youngest son of the Bawang family? !

Before, I just glanced at it from a distance, because I walked with Yun Yanhui and was taller, so Zhang Yaozuo called him that in his heart.Now that he saw the face face to face, he recognized it.

Don't say that Zhao Yunchu is not a "silly big man", even if he is, it is not Zhang Yaozuo's turn to talk about it.

Zhang Yaozuo suffocated himself for a while, and froze at the door, only to see Yun Yanhui glanced at him gloatingly, and then walked away with Zhao Yunchu.

"It's...it's unreasonable!" Zhang Yaozuo growled angrily, seeing a cat at his feet lazily walking towards the cafeteria, he wanted to take it out angrily, and kicked it.

But the cat looked lazy, but it was extremely nimble. It jumped away and jumped onto the shoulder of an official in front.

The official was shocked, turned his head to see who it was, hugged it down with a smile, and said jokingly: "I will see Mr. Da Mao."

Zhang Yaozuo spoke with a dark face: "What are you talking about, sir?"

The official turned around, "Are you new here? This is the mouse catcher of our Kaifeng mansion, and the mansion has been officially sealed."

Zhang Yaozuo: "..."

...Damn it, everyone in Kaifeng Mansion is sick!

-

Yunyan took Zhao Yunchu's hand back to eat in Kaifeng Mansion.

Even among ordinary people, there are good friends who walk together hand in hand, Zhao Yunchu used to love to cling to Yun Yanhui even more.However, now that he has ghosts in his heart, he always feels that others are staring at them.

Even so, Zhao Yunchu was also reluctant to let go.

"Hahaha, did you see Zhang Yaozuo's expression? I think he's going crazy!" Yun Yan laughed back, "He's too stupid, I believe whatever I say."

Zhao Yunchu: "This is the first day that hasn't been over yet, it seems that he still has to endure the rest."

Yun Yan replied triumphantly: "He asked for this all by himself, I see when he can't bear it."

Zhao Yunchu smiled and said: "Then what if he survives?"

"That's okay, if he survives," Yun Yan turned to look in the direction of Bao Zheng's study, "then he will be successful in reeducation through labor. Congratulations, he has become a useful person to the country."

Zhao Yunchu couldn't help laughing, "By the way, isn't Prefect Bao looking for you?"

"After the lunch break I made with him," Yun Yan returned with a sense of time. Seeing a melon shed in front of him, she pulled Zhao Yunchu over to sit down, "Is Dali Temple busy recently? You come to eat at noon, will you Won't it be too rushed?"

Zhao Yunchu said obediently: "Fortunately, I ride a horse and go back and forth quickly."

"Oh... By the way, I made a watch, you can take a look." Yun Yanhui took out a piece of paper from her bosom, and handed it to Zhao Yunchu seriously.

Zhao Yunchu picked it up with trepidation and took a look, and was immediately dumbfounded.

This table is based on the current month as an example, according to holidays, official holidays, etc., the time for a certain exercise is arranged, and there are small notes below, which are very accurate and specific information.For example, sometimes it is noon, sometimes it is evening, and the location is different, sometimes charter a cruise, sometimes go to Puguanze...

There is also a line of words below, which means that if there is no special reason, either party must ask for leave at least half a day in advance, and then reschedule.Those that happen outside of this table are not included in the total rounds of the month.

Zhao Yunchu: "..."

He is indeed thinking about this matter, but he is a little shy, and he doesn't know how to bring it up naturally. Who knows that Brother Yan has already taken the time to make arrangements, so what else can he say_(:з」∠)_

Yun Yan replied: "Take it for review, mark any revisions, and leave it to me tomorrow."

Is it so serious?Zhao Yunchu tremblingly said: "Interview... Do you want to sign?"

Yun Yan looked at him in surprise, and laughed loudly: "What are you signing, you stupid!"

Zhao Yunchu said depressedly: "Because it seems that you have a set of procedures."

"I'm just talking about it, I'm used to it." Yun Yan patted his head back a few times, "Okay, you go back to Dali Temple, I'm going to Fuzun's place too."

……

Yun Yan ran back to Bao Zheng's study, and when she entered, she saw that Bao Zheng was alone, and asked, "Fu Zun, what are you talking about?"

"Sit down," Bao Zheng said casually, "Brother Yan, how have you been resting recently?"

Yun Yan sat back down and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I can continue to devote myself to work at any time."

Bao Zheng also laughed, and said, "I have been in office for several years. With the blessing of the emperor, Kaifeng Mansion has greatly improved in all aspects. However, recently, my manor has deeply felt that although there are public and private colleges everywhere in Tokyo, the same is true in towns and villages. The wind of learning is very strong, but our Kaifeng mansion has no place to cultivate talents. As a governor of the mansion, it is also within our duty to educate our students."

There are indeed many places to go to school in Tokyo, such as Taixue with high standards, and Zongxue like Zhao Yunchu's clan, down to various private colleges.However, as Bao Zheng said, those are not official schools of this government.

Besides, in recent years, the establishment of schools in various prefectures has been very popular. Kaifeng Prefecture, which is so big, should also have a prefectural school to make sense.

Yun Yan thought about it seriously, "It is definitely necessary to set up a government school. We are not short of money, land, or students. Ask me, do you think the teaching staff is a problem?"

Bao Zheng nodded and said, "That's right. After thinking about it for a while, it's not difficult to set up a school. What's difficult is that we can't find enough professors with good character and excellent knowledge. I don't know when I can learn it." In place, I always feel that the efficiency is too low. I came to ask you, is there any shortcut?"

Could it be that telling them to go to other academies to poach talents?

Yun Yan laughed back, "Isn't this easy? Fu Zun, you stand in the Kaifeng mansion, looking around, there are many well-educated people who have passed the imperial examination, including yourself. With so many subordinates, they take turns acting as teachers , isn't that enough?"
