Return to the Song Dynasty

It has been three days since they returned to the Weizhou government office. Zhang Wei and Chen Canjun are still rectifying the military and political affairs on Jingyuan Road, and they are ready to take Zhao Man and Yao Xiong directly to Bianliang to report on their duties after the rectification is completed.Yue He, Guo Cheng and Zhe Keshi stayed behind to guard Pingxia City and the newly acquired Tiandu Mountain.

Zhao Man went to harass the wounded Yue Cheng bitterly every day.Although Yue Cheng's injury was serious, the first aid measures taken by Zhao Man and the military doctor were proper. After being sent to Weizhou, he was treated meticulously by Lin Liu. He was basically healed, and it was the injury on his leg. If it is more serious, the bone is already injured, and the treatment time is delayed, and strenuous exercise may not be possible after healing.

Faced with such a result, Zhao Man and others felt sorry for Yue Cheng, and they didn't even dare to raise their legs.But Yue Cheng himself was very calm.It is not easy to survive under such difficult conditions, and this is inseparable from Yue Cheng's own tenacious will to survive.

In Yue Cheng's own words: "It is already a miracle that I am lucky enough to survive. I am not missing an arm or a leg, I have already thanked God, what is there to be dissatisfied with? What's more, I have to take good care of my brothers. If I can’t go to the battlefield, I’ll learn from Qingzhi, and I can be a military doctor, right?”

Yao Xiong immediately said that he had reserved Yue Cheng as a military doctor, and he could take up the post at any time when Yue Cheng recovered from his injury.Zhao Man didn't take it seriously, and always urged Yue Cheng to leave the army quickly and enjoy a stable and peaceful life.Of course, by the way, you can also become the shopkeeper of our Northwest Army's multi-operated store, selling furs, dried meat and so on, so moist.

Yue Cheng was full of confidence and ready to start a new life, but poor Zhao Man still couldn't find a way out.Several times, they ran to discuss with Yue Cheng when no one was there. The two of them were full of anxiety and couldn't think of any solution.This is a dead end!I can't get out!

There is a system for being an official in the Song Dynasty. According to the regulations, officials of all sizes have to go to Liuneiquan in Bianjing to submit the family certificates of the three generations, that is, to submit the names of the three generations of ancestors, year armor, and personal resumes with or without past crimes. On the road, there must be neighbors as guarantees to prove their identity.In this way, you can get a confession, which is the certificate of being an official.

Originally, Zhao Man was a young soldier in the Northwest, the mountains were high and the emperor was far away, surrounded by acquaintances, and the official positions were pitiful, and everyone who couldn't submit them would just turn their eyes and close their eyes, and pass by so-so.Liu Neiquan didn't bother to pay attention to such a small official who was as big as a sesame and mung bean.But who would have thought that Zhao Man's grades are too outstanding!The promotion was too sudden!Now that he is about to enter Beijing again, and his official position has also been promoted to the governor, it is a bit unreasonable not to submit the three-generation family certificate.

But Zhao Man is an abnormal person with a black family and intermittent amnesia, where can he get a three-generation family certificate!If there is enough time, Yue Cheng and Yue He would like to go back to their hometown and try to write Zhao Man under the name of one of their aunts, and make Zhao Man a real cousin, that's all.But where is the time to do it now, Mr. Zhang is already preparing to leave for Bianjing in a few days.

What is even more frustrating is that neighbors have to be guarantors, which is even more difficult to get.These days, it is the Baojia system. If something happens to the family, everyone will have to sit down and lose their heads. Who dares to issue false certificates? !It's useless for Yue Cheng, Yue and their family to agree, needless to say, other villagers and neighbors dare not guarantee it.It's just that the neighbors are willing to provide security, and there are security chiefs, Jia chiefs, and household heads at the top. These people know these powerful relationships, and they will definitely not provide false guarantees.

So, Yue Cheng and Zhao were so worried that their mouths were full of blisters, they couldn't eat, and they were helpless, so there was nothing!The two of them could only sit opposite each other every day, sighing and frowning.In the end, as a doctor, Lin Liu couldn't bear it anymore, and resolutely expelled the uninvited guest who disturbed the rest of his sick room, and ordered Zhao Man not to enter until Yue Cheng recovered.

So Zhao Man, who had nowhere to go and was kicked out, had nowhere to go, so he ran to harass the little apprentice Yao Pingzhong who had just been sent over by Yao Gu.It's strange to say that Yao Pingzhong always has to cling to Zhao Man all the time before he is reconciled, except for the day when he just arrived, he spent a whole day with Zhao Man, and he has not seen him recently.Zhao Man wondered, where did this kid go?The godson Han Wu also sees the head and sees the end all the time.Alas, there is no way to live this day!

Ah, I can't be called Han Wu anymore, it should be called Han Shizhong.Because the official Zhao Xu heard about the heroic deeds of the young Han Wu, he felt that this boy was very good, he had made great contributions to the country, and could be a role model for the young men of the Song Dynasty, so he specially named him Shizhong and rewarded him with a hundred taels of silver as a token of recognition .

Thinking of this, Zhao Man was even more depressed. How could he be a good son? Before he had time to give the child a good name, the emperor just gave him a random name? !Still so tacky!Besides, my son, why should he be loyal to your family for generations?The meaning is not good, not free!Anyway, it's a bad name!Of course, Zhao Man only dared to slander himself for saying this, and he never dared to say it. (Zhao Man: Why do you always feel that this name is so familiar?)

However, Zhao Man's deep dissatisfaction could not be concealed from the people around him.But everyone was thinking about it, but they didn't understand why Zhao Man was making a fuss?You know, in the Song Dynasty, when the monarchy was so powerful, it was a great honor for the emperor to personally give a name to an unknown child.If there are no accidents, this child's success in the future is just around the corner.Besides, the name Shizhong also contains the official's ardent hope for this child, what a good name!What are you dissatisfied with?

Everyone was puzzled, and laughed at Zhao Man because he was jealous that the officials gave the child a name and deprived him of the fun of being a godfather.Let him marry a wife quickly, have a few children by himself, and choose whatever name he wants.The person involved, Zhao Man, snorted o(￣ヘ￣o#) arrogantly. Thinking about it, it was the same thing, but somehow felt that things were not that simple.

Zhao Xu: Hehe, I have already chosen names for your other two sons. I am such a responsible and good brother, no thanks!

Zhao Man: God!How did I offend you?I can't realize such a small wish? !

Zhao Xu smiled deeply, hiding his achievements and fame: Although I don't have a son, I named three nephews!The winner in life is none other than me!Um!I'm beginning to believe that the emperor has the aura of a king again!

Zhao Man frowned all the way, walked to the school grounds, and finally caught the two cubs.God knows!It's winter, these two little things are actually fighting shirtless on the school field, surrounded by silly adults watching the fun, no one knows to let the children wear more clothes? !Cold how to do? !ah?Are all adults stupid? !What else to fight?Hurry up and get dressed!

The silly adult Yao Xiong and others said: We came here like this when we were young, what's wrong?

Zhao Man: ...I can't talk to you guys!

Furious, Zhao Man held Yao Pingzhong in his left hand and Han Shizhong in his right, and hurriedly carried the two prodigal children into the house to keep warm. "What's the matter with you two? Are you two shirtless fighting outside in winter? Don't you know it's cold? Besides, you two are only so young, why do you want to learn from those stupid big guys?" After training the little one, in fact, he is still reluctant to bear the hardships of his own children.

Yao Pingzhong and Han Shizhong, who were being trained together, exchanged glances while Zhao Man was not paying attention, and the two of them instantly changed from rivals for favor to bitter brothers with perfect understanding.In fact, the two of them hadn't done anything else these days, they were fighting every day.The main reason is that Yao Pingzhong suddenly discovered that the master who always belonged to him has now become someone else's godfather? ! !This is absolutely unbearable! !

Yao Pingzhong was furious: Where did you come from?Dare to steal the master from me?Master likes me the most!Master is mine!The delicious food made by the master is also mine!

Han Shizhong looked back calmly: Oh?You call him master, I call him father.

Yao Pingzhong: ...About a fight!

Han Shizhong: Hehe.

So one daily flight became a compulsory course for the two little guys.Yao Pingzhong has been in the military camp since he was a child, exercising with the soldiers. His father and uncles taught him a few tricks when he had nothing to do. After a long time, he knew quite a few tricks.

Although Han Shizhong is not as good as Yao Pingzhong, he has suffered a lot since he was a child, and he has many fights. He has practical experience, and since he followed his uncle Yue Cheng, he has humbly asked for advice, and has improved a lot.The two fought each other many times, each winning and losing, and they were evenly matched, neither of them could beat the other, and they became more motivated to make appointments every day.

Now facing the accusations from their godfather and master, the two of them said at the same time with the unbreakable tacit understanding formed in the fight: "Father, I'm hungry! I ate a steamed bun since morning." "Master, I'm hungry." Ah, I haven’t been able to find you these few days, the food here is not good, and I’m not full as an apprentice.” Yao Pingzhong patted his shriveled belly with his small hands, and he didn’t forget to round his big eyes, poor Looking at Zhao Man miserably.Han Shizhong imitated the example, and blinked his big eyes at Zhao Man aggrievedly.

Being stared at by such two pairs of cute and pitiful big eyes, Zhao Man couldn't stand it anymore, and deeply blamed himself for speaking too seriously, leaving only one sentence: "You wait, I will make delicious food for you!" .” Then he ran away.There were two little guys who didn't know each other, and they were sympathetic to each other. After countless fights, they sat down and chatted for the first time.

Yao Pingzhong: "Look, the master is hard-spoken and soft-hearted. If you play nice with him, he won't talk about us anymore."

Han Shizhong: "Well, Dad is such a good man. I am so happy!"

Yao Pingzhong: ...you're not so smug, you're looking for a beating again, aren't you? !

Han Shizhong: I will accompany you at any time.

So when Zhao Man returned to the house with the freshly made pancakes, what he saw were two little guys rolling into a ball on the bed...

Zhao Man was dumbfounded: "You two have a good relationship?!"

Yao Pingzhong and Han Shizhong: "Which eye do you see that I have a good relationship with him?"Are we fighting? 'Of course, the two of them would never dare to say these words.The two of them could only hey and hey, and instantly changed from the fighting mode to the brother and friend mode of hooking shoulders and shoulders.Then he sat down silently, chomping on the delicious pancake fruit, letting the delicious food melt his unspeakable depression.Well, this pancake is so delicious!delicious!

Zhao Man was reclining on the chair, his light blue robe looked very plain, with a smile on his slightly haggard face, he looked at the two children who were devouring hungrily with kind eyes.The bitterness in my heart can't be expressed. In fact, Zhao Man is really regretful. He regrets recognizing the two children as apprentices and sons. There are those good brothers who are utterly devoted to each other, and even Mr. Zhang may have to eat melons along with him.

"Ah~" Thinking of this, Zhao Man, who was at a loss what to do, let out a long and helpless sigh, and the melancholy came to his heart again. 'In this country where the imperial power is supreme, the crime of deceiving the emperor is a felony, and it might cost my life.Hehe, I don't have to wait for others to seek revenge, I just killed myself. ' Zhao Man thought to himself mockingly.

Thinking that he might not be able to return from this trip, Zhao Man looked at the two children with more loving and reluctant eyes, which made the two little guys who were concentrating on eating always feel cold and hairy behind them.

"You guys, in the future, you have to face life bravely and face difficulties. If you want to be a general galloping on the battlefield, it's okay. But don't be under pressure. You are still young, so you are not busy making decisions. You will grow up slowly in the future. Only then will you know what you really like and what you want to do. Don’t force yourself when the time comes, just do what you want, and don’t care too much about other people’s eyes. Success and fame, these are worldly eyes, don’t care too much, Just follow your heart. As for me, I will always support you."

Zhao Man smiled and touched the furry heads of the two children. His tone was gentle, and he continued: "Actually, I just hope that you can live a safe and happy life. That's enough. I will sort out the newly written textbooks. Let's see, you two have nothing to do in the future." After finishing speaking, he patted the heads of the two little guys and got up to start teaching materials.

The two little ones left looked at each other in blank dismay, always feeling that something was wrong with their master and godfather today.
