Ben Hou is ill

Zhao Guohou's actions were much faster than Yan Zhaoge imagined. He used the mouth of the Queen Mother Zhao to express to the emperor that he wanted to do his part for the war in the Northland and share a share of the pie. When the next court meeting, the emperor Then he appointed Zhao Guohou's second son as General Ponu, who belonged to General Zhenbei's mansion.

In all fairness, Zhao Guohou's second son has the ability, although Yan Zhaoge is not clear about his ability to lead the army, but to be appointed as a general, even a miscellaneous general, should have some ability.Even if the emperor is nepotism, the eldest princess will not watch the emperor messing around in major matters.

Yan Lan took Yan Ningkang to Fu's mansion to plead guilty, Jingtiao and the gift of apology were taken in, and the two were turned away.

"My father said that if you accept your heart, you will be forgiven. When you make a mistake in your youth, you don't have to mobilize people like this." Mr. Fu's eldest son bowed his hands to Yan Lan outside the door, with an apologetic expression on his face, "The mansion has been closed to thank guests for a long time. , and wait for my father to allow me, I will come to the door to apologize."

Yan Lan had no choice but to go back home, but this time it was not in vain.Yan Ningkang made a booklet of the articles and policy theories he had written, and gave it to Mr. Fu as an apology gift. If Mr. Fu accepted it, it proved that Mr. Fu was still impressed by Yan Ningkang's talents. Yan Ningkang made his own efforts.

Yan Lan didn't have much time to stay in Chang'an, a big court meeting had already passed, and it is estimated that the emperor would order him to return to the north to guard at the next big court meeting.

Yan Ningsheng honestly copied the books at home for many days, and even the meals were delivered to the room by servants.He is not stupid, on the contrary, he is quite smart. He knows that he has made a mistake and contradicts Yan Zhaoge. If his father punishes him with a whip and then punishes him to kneel for a day and a night, it will be light. He just disobeyed Yan Zhaoge That's all.

Yan Ningsheng's handwriting is not bad, but it's just not well-behaved. Compared with Yan Ningkang, his handwriting is much more reckless, but during this period of time, his temper has been worn down for a while, and he finally calmed down a bit .

During this period of time, he had no entourage by his side, his aunt's nephew was sent out of the mansion by Yan Zhaoge, and he had to do everything by himself except cooking and washing clothes.

He picked up the pen and wrote the last word, each stroke was as standard as a copybook, copying a book is more difficult than writing large characters, if you write a wrong word in a large character, a piece of paper will be useless, copying a wrong copy One word and one whole book is wasted.

After finally copying a copy, I put it aside to dry the ink, and when I looked up, I saw Yan Lan standing at the door.

"Father." Yan Ningsheng hurriedly stood up.

Yan Lan walked up to him, looked at the balls of paper stuffed in the wastebasket, and then at the copied book, nodded in satisfaction, "The writing is very good, it can be seen that I put my heart into it. of."

Yan Ningsheng was a little overwhelmed, Yan Lan seldom praised him, as if this was the first time in his memory.He knows that he is not good enough, and he is still very stubborn, so he won't get much praise, but he still hopes that his father can look at him with such approving eyes and praise him a few words.

"Ningkang will go to Taixue to study in a few days, do you want to go together?" Yan Lan asked.

Yan Ningsheng was a little moved. He thought for a while and then shook his head. He knew how much he weighed. Well-written handwriting didn’t mean he was well-educated. do not understand.

Yan Lan was a little disappointed, Yan Ningsheng's handwriting had already gained a bit of style, and in time he would become a master of calligraphy, it would be a pity not to be a scholar.But after all, you have to walk your own way, and you can't force it. He was not particularly disappointed, and asked again: "My husband will go back to the Northland in a few days. Your second cousin from the Zhao family will leave together. Do you want to leave?" Want to go to the Northland?"

Yan Ningsheng opened his mouth to answer.

Yan Lan paused, and without waiting for Yan Ningsheng to answer, she continued: "You don't need to force yourself, if you don't want to go, you can stay in the mansion. You are the son of the Hou Mansion, and your eldest brother will definitely not cut down on your food and clothing. You guys They are going to be 15 soon, and Ningkang has already decided that you have to find some way out for yourself, if you just want to be a wealthy family, there is no shortage of property and shops at home."

That being said, if Yan Ningsheng really decided to become an ordinary rich man, Yan Lan would still be a little disappointed.

Yan Ningsheng originally opened his mouth to say that he was going to the Northland, but he hesitated when he heard Yan Lan's next words. He thought and thought, and said, "Father, the future is a big event, and my son has to think about it."

Yan Lan nodded and said: "There is no rush, you can think about it slowly, and let's talk after you make a decision."

"Will Big Brother go to the Northland with his father?"

Yan Lan glanced at him, it was not something to hide that Yan Zhaoge could only live a rich life, all the honorable ministers in Chang'an knew about it, and Yan Ningsheng was not one of them. "Your elder brother will not join the army."

If there were no accidents, Yan Zhaoge would just be a idler who ate, drank and had fun all his life.

Yan Lan sent Yan Ningkang to Taixue before returning to Beidi.It is customary for Taixue to have a two-day holiday every ten days. Yan Lan took advantage of the Taixue holiday to send Yan Ningkang in. After the holiday, he will be on his way back to Beidi.

The nobles still have the ability to send their children to the imperial academy, but the doctors who teach in the imperial academy are all old and stubborn. The noble children were forced to drop out of school due to the harsh academics, and made a lot of jokes in Chang'an. After that, no honorable person dared to send someone in to be gilded.

"My son, when you enter the Taixue, you must abide by the rules, and don't contradict those old pedants. They have bad tempers one by one, and they are smelly and hard. It doesn't matter if you don't read well, and don't lose face." Yan Lan Qian reminded Wan Wan: "If you really can't finish reading, send a letter home and ask your elder brother to pick you up. We won't be ashamed when we go home. Don't burn your bones because of studying."

A few years ago, the son-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion suffered from exhaustion for studying and died young. It is really too much for Yan Lan not to worry.

Yan Ningkang couldn't laugh or cry, his father didn't understand what he said, it didn't matter that other people's family studied hard in Taixue, but it didn't matter if he didn't study well when he came to his own family.

"Father, I can save you, don't worry, I will take good care of myself." Yan Ningkang kowtowed to Yan Lan, respectfully kowtowed three times in a row, and said: "Take care of yourself in Beidi , we brothers will definitely work together. There is a big brother in the house, there are our brothers, and uncle Zhao will take care of you, so you can rest assured."

Yan Lan sighed, if Yan Ningkang still looked the same as before, he wouldn't be so caring, just take care of him, and he would not worry about food or clothing, but he is so motivated now, he should do more for himself Father's responsibility.

"If your teacher wants to choose characters for you, you can use the characters Yong. Your eldest brother's name is a special case, but you are brothers, so you need to be together."

An excited look appeared on Yan Ningkang's face, "Yes!"

"Go."

Yan Ningkang stood up from the ground, adjusted his clothes, and entered Taixue with his package.He was only wearing a cotton gown, and there were some belongings in the package. The books he used and a change of clothes had already been sent to the dormitory of Taixue.Taixue is no better than Guozixue. Guozixue can bring followers, eat, drink and have fun, but if you dare to do this in Taixue, you will be sprayed with blood by the doctor immediately. Impeachment, because there are not a few nobles who have been expelled.

"Father, is Ning Sheng willing to go to the Northland with you?" Yan Zhaoge asked on the way back home.

"He said to think about it again." Yan Lan sighed, "I'm afraid that my Yan family will only be honored in the future, not a general..."

"If Ning Sheng fails, there will be Ning Yue."

Yan Lan laughed, and said: "I'm close to the year of knowing my destiny. When Ning Yue becomes an adult, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold a knife or gun anymore."

"Father's words are wrong. Jiang Taigong is the prime minister of King Wu at [-], General Lian can eat rice and eat ten catties of meat at [-], and is put on a horse by armor. Huang Han is promoted to [-] to follow Xuande Gong. Father is only half a hundred now, and he will be sixty years later. At this age, how can you not hold a knife or a gun?"

Yan Lan shook her head, he understood what was going on with her body.When he was young, he was a playboy, he ate, drank and had fun every day. He never thought that he would go to the battlefield one day, and he almost never stretched his muscles and trained his bones.He didn't start practicing martial arts until the country of Yan was gone, because he missed the most suitable time for practicing martial arts. He put in a hundred times the hard work and effort of ordinary people, but the results were minimal, and his body was damaged. All these years, he was just holding on .When it was cloudy and rainy, coldness seeped from his bones, and he shivered from the cold.

But Yan Zhaoge hadn't married yet, and the court in Chang'an was unstable, and the political situation changed horribly.He always has to wait until a child can stand on his own, can protect the people in the house, and can become the support of other brothers before he can retire.

When they got to the gate of the mansion, Yan Ningsheng had already been waiting here.He was wearing a black samurai uniform, and stood in front of the door with his back straight. Yan Zhaoge looked at him intently, and found that the childishness on his face had faded a lot before he knew it. If he wanted to do it again, he would definitely not be able to do it. I asked Yan Zhaoge why you punished me for such a thing.

"Father, I'll go with you to the north." He got off the horse with Yan Lan, looked at Yan Zhaoge again, saw Yan Zhaoge shook his head, and got off the horse neatly, Yan Ningsheng stood there respectfully aside.

"Have you decided?"

"It's decided."

"I don't give you any regret medicine." Yan Lan looked at him, and there was a bit of her revived face on her immature cheeks. "You don't know how to practice martial arts, and you haven't read military books carefully. Even if you follow me to the Northland, you can only be a small soldier and practice with recruits. No one there cares that you are the son of the Marquis."

"Then I've decided too!" Yan Ningsheng said: "Brother Chengjue, Ningkang is from Wen, and I practice martial arts. If I fail, you will have time to train Ning Yue!"

Yan Lan smiled.
