My years in the Northern Song Dynasty Guozijian

Renzong carefully read the notes that Ye An sent up, anger rarely appeared on his usually gentle face.Let the servants around you hand over the notebook to the ministers below, and said coldly: "The epidemic in Jingzhao Mansion, the imperial court allocated money and sent people, and it has been a month now. But a few days ago, he even told me that the disaster was not under control, Not only has the government increased greatly, but it has also spread to the east of the river!"

"At least half of the country's famous doctors are there. Zhongmou County has nothing. Only a few people have cured all the diseases? What do you think is going on?"

The ministers bowed their heads and did not dare to answer.Only a few officials from the Jingzhao Mansion bit the bullet and explained: "Going back to the official's house, Zhongmu County occupies a small area and the number of patients is not too many. I heard that the county magistrate and Ye An even invaded the houses... "

In the end, he was interrupted by Renzong before he finished speaking: "Oh? According to this, I will send Aiqing to Jingzhao to manage a county right now, and clear all the patients within a month, okay?"

Seeing that the situation was wrong, the other party quickly pleaded guilty.Renzong snorted, "Print more copies of the "Ten Rules for Epidemic Prevention" written by Ye An, and send it to Jingzhao Mansion, so that they can learn from it."

Hearing this, Wang Anshi in the last row couldn't bear it anymore. This is putting his students on the fire!He stood up and said, "Going back to the official's house, just as the adults said just now, Jingzhao Mansion has a large population and the situation is complicated. The things in this article may not be useful, just in case..."

"I don't even know how to copy, and I don't think they need to be officials." Renzong's expression was still stinky, and he finally ordered to reward Ji Yue and Ye An with a bunch of things, even the grandmother of Ye An's family. .

Seeing this, everyone felt a little subtle in their hearts. This... As for it?It's just to help manage a Zhongmu County.The Great Song Dynasty experienced many epidemics, and the number of capable ministers and officials could not be counted. Why does it feel like the officials are helping this kid to build momentum? Is this the legendary Jane in the heart of the emperor?

Of course, Ye An, who was far away in Hutou Village, didn't know about all this, because - the Chinese New Year was coming soon.

The people of Zhongmou County were very happy because the plague was solved, and with the comparison of the neighboring counties, everyone felt a sense of pride in their hearts.So Ji Yue made a decision, this year, we will do something special!

The merchants and the government organized together, not only to decorate the county, but also to invite those in the nearby villages who have made great contributions to the epidemic.Because Ye Po donated a lot of supplies and her grandson was in charge, she was invited to speak in the city.The old lady was so nervous that she rehearsed at home over and over again, and the whole family followed suit.But it can be seen that she is still very beautiful in her heart, after all, since the old man failed in business, the Ye family has not been so prosperous for a long time.

Ye An himself doesn't like this very much. He has a big business in Beijing, and he has seen many more grandiose ones than this one, so he really doesn't interest him.But seeing that grandma liked it, she followed Zhang Luo, and even booked a mansion in Beijing three days in advance, and asked Mei Xiang to live in with Grandma Ye, while she stayed at home and cleaned up.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, Ye An was busy at home with girls and boys for a long time during the day, and now the Ye family is getting bigger and bigger, with a lot of land under his name, so many people come to give New Year's greetings.Maybe it was because of intentional exercise, Ye Po deliberately let him come out, Ye An was so busy that he didn't touch the ground, and finally stayed up until night, without eating, he fell asleep under the quilt.

I don't know how long he slept, but Ye An woke up, rubbed his eyes in a daze, and vaguely heard the horns beating four times outside, knowing that he had slept until the fourth watch.

Feeling a roar in his stomach, Ye An smiled wryly, it's not easy now.None of the grandparents of the Ye family had the habit of letting servants watch the night, and now it was pitch black outside, so he had no choice but to wrap himself in a cotton coat and go to the kitchen to get something to eat.

Fortunately, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there are a lot of ingredients in the kitchen.Ye An was aroused by the glutton, tore off two chicken wings, mixed the sauce and spread it evenly, and then grilled it on the unextinguished fire in the stove.Soon, the room was filled with an enticing burnt aroma.Finally, brush with a layer of honey, the chicken wings are shining with a crystal luster, and the meat inside is so tender that it can burst with juice.

I haven't cooked for a long time, is my cooking still very good, Ye Anmei thought, and then, regardless of the image, he picked up the chicken wings and started to eat.

"What are you doing?"

At this moment, a male voice sounded, Ye An raised his head with a chicken wing in his mouth, and Pan Yuanqing was standing at the door wearing a robe, with a flash of a smile in his eyes.

Ye An: "..." Should I swallow the thing in my mouth now, or spit it out? !In the end, he decided to swallow it, wiped the oil from his mouth, and said with an embarrassed smile, "Teacher, why are you here?"

"I heard movement in the kitchen, so I came over to have a look."

"That's right, you martial arts learners have sharp eyes and ears, and it's because I'm too loud." Ye An said foolishly.

Pan Yuanqing lowered his eyebrows, but it was actually because he was always concerned about the other party in his heart, and he felt that he got up, so he deliberately looked out.

Seeing that the teacher didn't speak, Ye An didn't know what to say, and there was a strange atmosphere in the kitchen for a while.Or just go back to the house?Ye An hesitated.

"I……"

"you……"

Both sides spoke at the same time, and closed their mouths at the same time. Ye An smiled coyly, "You speak first, you speak first."

Pan Yuanqing was silent for a moment, then took out a book from his pocket and handed it over: "Didn't you always want to learn martial arts? This is what I modified based on the Western Region's internal martial arts. You don't need a very good foundation, as long as you practice it every day." Half an hour, for a year, is enough for two or three ordinary people."

"Ah!" Ye An's eyes lit up, and he immediately took the book over, eagerly looking at it.God knows how much he envies others who can fly around in this world of martial arts, but his talents are limited, and he consulted many people and got negative answers, and now he finally got his wish.Of course, he also knew how difficult it was for Pan Yuanqing to compile this book. He rubbed the pages of the book lightly, and suddenly touched a small paper bag, "What is this?" Ye An was full of question marks.

"It's the seed of Zhu Nai." Pan Yuanqing took a look and explained, "I asked someone to bring it from Persia. I heard you mentioned that you wanted to eat the Nai fruit outside."

The so-called Nai refers to the native apples in China. Most of them are grown in the Northwest. They are small and must be dried or cooked, otherwise they will taste like cotton wool and have a particularly bad taste.Modern apples were brought to Yantai by American pastors in the [-]th century and cultivated locally.Ye An used to miss Apple crazily, and often talked about it, but he didn't expect the other party to remember it.

Ye An's expression was complicated, "Teacher, why are you...too much trouble for you."

"It's okay, today is your birthday, I'll celebrate it for you." Pan Yuanqing said calmly, but Ye An was stunned.

It took me a while to realize, yes, today is my birthday.The original owner happened to be born in the middle of the night on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and I couldn't tell which day it was, and it happened to coincide with the New Year.Coupled with her young age and her poor health, she couldn't make a big deal of it. After a long time, Granny Ye just ignored the matter.Even he didn't take it to heart, he didn't expect the teacher to remember it.

Ye An was moved to tears, but now Pan Yuanqing was at a loss.After finally controlling his emotions, Ye Xiaoan wiped his face indiscriminately, with the corners of his mouth raised, showing a big smile: "After today, I will be eighteen years old. Teacher, don't treat me like a child anymore."

Looking at the young man with bright eyes, Pan Yuanqing nodded lightly: "Okay."

……

A few days after the end of the new year, the reward from the imperial court came down. Ye Po excitedly held the official handwriting and ordered it to be placed in the most conspicuous place.Ji Yue was temporarily asked to assist in the Jingzhao Mansion because of his meritorious service under the rule. He believed that it was only a matter of time before he was promoted.

Seeing that everything was handled in the same way, Ye An also planned to leave.Grandma once again rejected the request to live in the capital, and this time the old lady was still plausible.Now that so many lands have been bought, they are all the ancestral property of the Ye family, so she naturally has to take care of them, not to mention the official family has given them a town house with their own handwriting, so she has to appreciate it for a while.

Seeing that she couldn't hold her back, Ye An had no choice but to order his servants to take good care of Ye Po, and left Zhongmou County with the accompanying medical team under the eyes of the people who were reluctant to part.

When he returned to the capital, he wanted to meet his friends, but he was called over by the palace without saying a few words.

With question marks all over his head, Ye An followed Zhang Mao into the palace. Renzong seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

After saluting, Ye An looked at the emperor with some trepidation, and said hesitantly, "Official, I did a good job this time."

The hall was filled with incense, and Renzong's face could not be seen clearly for a moment. The other party seemed to have sized Ye An up for a long time, and finally, with his anxious expression, said: "Very good, much better than I imagined."

Ye An breathed a sigh of relief, what, he was so mysterious that he was taken aback.

After a long while, Renzong said again: "Since you entered Beijing, I have observed your actions. Although you are not close in writing and ink, you have a good character and a clear mind. I heard that in the Guozijian, my classmates used to have many opinions on you, but now they are very close to each other. , it can be seen that the temper is also good."

"Ah?" The sudden words stunned Ye An, scratching his head: "Hey, it's okay, I think about it carefully, and I think I'm pretty good."

Renzong smiled lightly, nodded slightly, and just about to continue talking, he heard Zhang Mao outside the door complaining: "Princess, the officials are talking about business in the room, so don't embarrass the little ones."

Renzong immediately understood what was going on, rubbed his head, and said helplessly, "Let her in."

"Here." Zhang Mao responded, and then, a small figure walked in bouncing around.Ye An sneaked a look and found that it was Princess Fukang whom he had met before.

The little girl had a lot more twitches than last time, she thought she still remembered Ye An, she let out an "Ah" in surprise and hurriedly acted like a lady.

Facing his daughter, Renzong acted like an ordinary father, and said helplessly: "Didn't I say that I will take you out of the palace these two days? Why are you making trouble again?"

"Daddy lied! That's what you said last month!" The eldest princess puffed up.

Renzong was obviously also a little embarrassed. He was a little busy recently, so he forgot for a while.Looking at her daughter's little face that was about to cry, she could only remedy it by saying: "A little while, a little while, daddy will go out with you."

Fukang rolled his eyes, pointed at Ye An suddenly and said, "I've been to all the tiles in Beijing, this time I'm going to Brother Ye's house!"

"This..." Renzong showed embarrassment, and the emperor took his daughter to a student's house in thongs, feeling a little unreasonable.

In the end, Ye An said: "It's okay, I moved to a new house, the house has just been tidied up, and it's very clean, just feel free to visit the official family." Then he squatted down, and solemnly said to the princess: "You can go, but you have to go with me." I made an appointment to be obedient on the road and not to run around, and I will cook delicious food for you when the time comes."

Fukang nodded expectantly.Seeing his daughter being appeased, Renzong was obviously much more relaxed. He temporarily put aside what he had prepared, and went to Ye's house as a guest with simple instructions.

When we arrived at Ye's house, seeing the simple and rough furnishings in the courtyard, Renzong's literary and artistic youth couldn't help but criticize him again.In the end, he hated iron but said: "I think your calligraphy and painting are good, why did your family make it like this." Their old Zhao family is obviously very talented in art aesthetics!

Ye An said innocently that he was the only one in Manfu, and it would be troublesome to make a lot of construction work.Renzong shook his head, intending to pick a few more objects from the palace to support him.

"What is this?" Fukang blinked his big eyes and pointed innocently at a moon door.

"Oh, because the teacher lives next door, we both felt it was inconvenient to go back and forth, so we opened a door on the wall."

Fukang touched the door and said with a smile: "It's really interesting, it feels like the young master and his wife secretly meeting in the drama."

The two children felt nothing, but Renzong next to him felt that the world had collapsed.Regardless of the emperor's majesty, he yelled at Fukang: "How can you read that kind of book!"

Then he turned his head and shouted to Ye An: "How can you open this door?"

"Ah?" Ye An Fukang looked at each other, not knowing why.

Renzong suddenly felt tired, and thought to himself, no wonder other people said that "you will know the kindness of your parents when you raise a child". There are only two children, if there are more... He couldn't help but shudder, and then told the two over and over again. Preach.

Ye An Fukang was so annoyed that he could only nod and pretend to agree.

That night, after Renzong returned to the palace, looking at the candlelight, he seemed to have made up his mind.
