That night Xue Yan didn't sleep well, because Princess Pingyang often put on her clothes and got up in front of Xue Yan's bed after the second watch to tuck the quilt for him.

Xue Yan felt light, and would wake up with a start if there was any movement outside.So when filming with the group, if the hotel room you stay in has no sound, or if someone wakes you up while sleeping, Xue Yan will be very irritable.

However, facing Princess Pingyang's loving mother, Xue Yan didn't feel impatient at all.He closed his eyes and quietly pretended to be asleep, but what Xue Yan thought of was that every time he went home to rest after filming, his parents complained that he was not honest at night, and when he woke up at night, he always pushed open the door of his room, paying attention to whether he was sleeping or kicking the quilt , or forget to turn off the air conditioner before going to bed.

Xue Yan once thought that such treatment would never happen again in the future.But he didn't expect that by chance, he would meet another pair of parents in the unfamiliar Dachu.

After thinking wildly all night, Xue Yan stayed up until dawn in a daze.Hearing the sound of Wei Guogong Xue Ji getting up and getting dressed, Xue Yan hurriedly opened his eyes, and whispered with a smile: "Aye, do you want to do morning exercises? I want to go too."

Duke Wei smiled tacitly at Xue Yan, and whispered: "Didn't sleep well last night? Your mother is too much trouble."

Xue Yan hurriedly replied: "No, I slept well."

Duke Wei smiled but said nothing, and gently tapped Xue Yan's forehead with his index finger.Waiting for Xue Yan to put on his clothes on tiptoe, and when the father and son walked out of the tent, the Duke of Wei said: "You, Aye, have been marching and fighting for so many years. You haven't learned anything else. You just remember what pillow godadan is. This man is sleeping. After breathing, the breath is longer and gentler, although you closed your eyes last night and pretended to be asleep, but your breath was short and dull, so it can be seen that you did not fall asleep."

Hearing this, Xue Yan looked at Wei Guogong with admiration, and said with a smile: "Aye is as meticulous as a hair, and you even know this?"

Wei Guogong suddenly blinked at Xue Yan narrowly, and whispered: "Kick the quilt a few more times before you go to sleep tonight, your mother will get impatient with tucking the corners of the quilt for you, so she will just put the quilt on you." The edges are tucked under the mattress, and a wolf fur mattress is put on top of it for you. Then you can sleep well."

Xue Yan silently watched Wei Guogong's eloquent talk, and suddenly suspected that this was Wei Guogong's experience.

It was the twelfth lunar month, the winter was cold, and there was a little snow in the sky.Dark clouds hovered above the school martial arts field, and the northwest wind blew past, rolling up the remnants of soil and dead leaves on the ground.

Duke Wei picked up a long spear from the weapon rack on the side and turned it upside down, then turned his head and silently glanced at Xue Yan.As if to show his father's majesty in front of his son, Duke Wei then poured water on the great prestige of a long spear dance.

Although Xue Yan doesn't know martial arts, when he was a prop master for a production crew in his previous life, he also saw martial arts instructors teach stars to pose and feed moves, and even saw those martial arts movie stars' so-called real guns and actual fights.

But compared with Duke Wei's sharp and murderous "morning exercises" now, the "real kung fu" that Xue Yan had seen in his previous life was nothing more than a show.

The time for a stick of incense was quietly spent by Xue Yan watching Wei Guogong's "morning exercise" intently, and applauding from time to time, satisfying the vanity of being a father, Wei Guogong happily accepted Xue Yan's adoring eyes trick.

Putting the long lance in his hand back into the weapon rack, the steaming Duke Wei smiled at Xue Yan and said, "Didn't you say you want to do morning exercises with me? Don't you feel cold just standing here like this?"

In fact, Xue Yan, who is wearing a cloak, will never be cold.However, after hearing Duke Wei's words, Xue Yan nodded with a smile, took off the cloak on his body and hung it on the weapon rack, then stretched his arms and legs. "Eighth Broadcast Gymnastics".And he dutifully tapped the time in his mouth.

"The first section is walking in place, one, two, three, four... The second section is stretching, one, two, three, four... The third section is chest expansion..."

It wasn't until Xue Yan finished finishing the exercise in the last session that Duke Wei came back to his senses and laughed out loud.

Xue Yan was very satisfied with the effect of his morning exercise, which also had the effect of entertaining his parents with colorful clothes, because he said, "Aye, don't look at my movements, which look simple, but they actually exercise your muscles and bones."

Wei Guogong looked at Xue Yan's thin arms and legs indiscriminately, and was skeptical of the "exercise muscles and bones" he said.

Xue Yan, who admired Wei Guogong's exquisite martial arts very much, and also had a heart to practice martial arts, asked Wei Guogong with a smile: "Aye, what do you think of me, can you learn martial arts from Aye?"

Duke Wei stretched out his hands to pinch Xue Yan's bones when he heard the words, pondered for a moment, and said, "The root bones are good, but they are a little old, and I'm afraid it will be a bit hard to practice martial arts now."

He has always been strict with his apprentices, but when he met his own son, Duke Wei thought about it for a moment, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, the world has been settled, and there are not many opportunities to fight in the future. My son is good at writing, and Good at the way of managing the world economically, my son will definitely have a place in the temple in the future. This is to study martial arts... as long as you keep fit."

What's more, Duke Wei and Princess Pingyang are both generals from the same family. As the saying goes, the masters of high meritorious service may not be willing to see another one of their families who can lead the army to fight.It's better to abandon martial arts and follow literature, since you can live without worry and be able to sit in a high position, it's better than those who are fighting for their lives on the battlefield.

Naturally, Xue Yan didn't know about Wei Guogong's concerns, but Xue Yan was already very happy to hear that Xue Ji agreed with him to practice martial arts.Although he knows that he can't bear hardships and has poor patience, but as a seven-foot man, who doesn't admire the chivalrous demeanor of "killing a person in ten steps, and never staying behind for a thousand miles"?

Xue Yan was so excited that he blurted out and asked, "Then when will we start practicing martial arts, today?"

Seeing his son eager to try and impatient, Xue Ji smiled, patted Xue Yan on the shoulder and said, "Not today, we have to go to breakfast. And after breakfast, don't you have to go to the wounded barracks?"

As for Xue Yan's status as a handyman in Huotouying, even though the meal of braised pork last night was delicious, Duke Wei still treated him solemnly, and warned, "A man with a high ambition, how can he be greedy for food and drink? I am nostalgic for being in the kitchen, and I must never go there again in the future."

Facing his father's admonition, Xue Yan also said with a serious face: "Father, don't worry, I seldom cook in Huotouying now. I am busy distilling spirits and medical alcohol."

While talking, he thought that the supervisor said that he would send the built condenser tube to Huotou camp early this morning. Xue Yan slapped his forehead and said, "I think the equipment for the supervisor has already been sent to Huotou camp. If father is fine, How about going with me?"

Duke Wei and Princess Pingyang have been very curious about Xue Yan's past experience since he discovered the name "Xue Yan" from King Yan's rebellion letter.After careful inquiry, he naturally knew Xue Yan's offering of double-entry bookkeeping method, white sugar production method, spirit distillation and Baiyao formula.Moreover, after staying in the Youzhou camp for two days, Duke Wei also saw with his own eyes the effectiveness of the field first aid method in treating wounded soldiers.

Xue Ji is the general who leads the army, and he has always loved soldiers like his son, and he is the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Great Chu Dynasty, both public and private. Xue Ji is curious about the medical alcohol that Xue Yan said is more effective than strong alcohol in preventing wound infections.

Also, this is the first time his son has invited him, so Aye, who is 24 filial piety, readily accepts the invitation.When they returned to the tent for breakfast, the bored Princess Pingyang heard this and said she would follow.So the family of three went into Huotou Camp, Youzhou Daying Camp together after breakfast.Suddenly seeing the faces of the eldest princess and the first-rank official, Huo Chang, who is upright and not good at words, and all the soldiers were immediately dumbfounded.

After paying respects to Duke Wei and Princess Pingyang in fear, the chief fire led everyone to the corner of the tent, pointed to the long and thin hose in the barrel and said: "This is the equipment that the prisoner sent this morning. "

After hesitating for a moment, he whispered again: "Last night, General Wei asked several soldiers to bring a lot of straw and wheat husks, saying that those things were requested by Mr. Xiao Lang. They didn't dare to delay, so they collected them overnight and brought them here."

Xue Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.Just as he was about to speak, he heard a noise outside the camp. It turned out that the two brothers Sun Bogu and Sun Zhonghe came with their respective medicine boys and the army doctor who was not on duty.

In the camp, everyone greeted Wei Guogong and Princess Pingyang first, then Fang smiled and said to Xue Yan: "Yesterday I heard from Mr. Xiaolang that there is a way to brew something better than spirits, which can prevent the wounds of wounded soldiers from being infected. , and won’t consume too much food. I admired Mr. Xiao Lang, and I was worried that Mr. Xiao Lang’s side was short of manpower, so except for the imperial doctor on duty, the rest of the people were called by Mr. Sun.”

Xue Yan was sharp-eyed and discovered that there was Zhao Bisheng among the imperial physicians accompanying the army. Seeing Xue Yan silently sizing him up, Zhao Bisheng's eyes flickered once, and a trace of fear flashed across his face.He hurriedly turned his face away, looking very guilty.

Xue Yan smiled, but didn't point out.I just cupped my hands to thank the two brothers Sun Zhonghe.

Everyone first purified the rest of the liquor into medical alcohol by heating in water, and then handed it over to the military officer in the account. Xue Yan also talked about the precautions for wiping the medical alcohol, and the precautions for storing the alcohol to avoid volatilization. See you guys The imperial physicians remembered everything, and then handed over the porcelain bottles containing medical alcohol to these imperial physicians, signaling them to send them to the wounded soldiers' battalion for use by the wounded soldiers.

Then everyone began to discuss how to use straw, wheat husk, straw and other raw materials to directly brew medical alcohol.At this point, Xue Yan has little room to play.It was Wei Ziqi who was more thoughtful, remembering that Xue Yan once said that the steps of distilling medical alcohol are similar to distilling spirits, except that there are differences in temperature and number of extractions.So on a whim, he brought two merchants who are good at developing rouge and spices and two masters who are good at brewing wine from Youzhou City, hoping that Xue Yan could comprehend by analogy and brew medical alcohol.

Not to mention, after Xue Yan got two winemakers, he really told the winemakers to use the method of making distiller's yeast to ferment straw, wheat husks and other things.Then he signaled to two merchants who are good at making rouge and spices to distill these wine koji at different temperatures, coupled with Xue Yan's half-knowledgeable guidance from the sidelines, after more than a hundred times of experiments like this, it really came out that it was similar to medical alcohol of liquid.

At this time, the imperial army led by Lu Guogong Jiang Zhi and Zhen Guogong Wei Wuji also successfully quelled the rebellion in Jingzhou, and the troops returned to camp.
