Chapter 106: Two Brothers

Chen Lin talked to Fan Yu and Empress Dowager Li in the Hou Mansion for a while, and then excused herself and ate a white Ji bun, so she left and returned to the palace to resume her life.

After sending Chen Lin away, Fan Yu said to his stepmother, Empress Dowager Li: "Mother, I have set a date with the divine doctor to give you the operation, don't hesitate." Just ten days later, when the time comes, the mother can go out of the palace again and ask the divine doctor to treat the mother's eye disease. ”

Empress Dowager Li was also a little tired after eating, so she nodded to Fan Yu and said, "Okay, my mother knows, I can't forget such an important thing." Today is tired, so I will go back to the palace. The same is true of the official family, when I came out on the front foot, he sent someone to arrange an errand for you on the back foot, and I don't know what to think. Yu'er, since the official family has arranged an errand for you, you can make some examples. When the time comes, my mother will give you a few kind words, and I won't let you suffer. ”

Fan Yu smiled: "What's the loss, the child just got an errand and doesn't understand anything, let's take a look first." Having said that, the official family's salary is not low, and I will try my best to do a good job in this general judgment. ”

"That's just like words, my mother will go back to the palace. After ten days, my mother will come again. Empress Dowager Li got up with the support of Manager Ning and said to Fan Yu.

Fan Yu hurriedly stepped forward to help his stepmother, "As long as the mother is bored, she will come to the child, and there is no need to wait for ten days." ”

Empress Dowager Li smiled: "You are now a person with errands, and my mother also expects you to make meritorious achievements, how can I always delay you." In that case, wouldn't my mother be dragging you back. ”

In the palace, Chen Lin returned to Zhao Zhen and returned to the official family.

"The official, the minister has already passed the decree to An Lehou, and he has also received the will." Chen Lin bowed to Zhao Zhen and said.

"Have you ever seen the Queen Mother?" Zhao Zhen asked seemingly casually.

Chen Lin hurriedly said: "I saw Niangniang, when the minister arrived at the Hou Mansion, Niangniang was having dinner with An Lehou. ”

Zhao Zhen became interested and asked: "How did he entertain his mother, and what did the Hou Mansion eat?" ”

"Back to the official's house, An Lehou entertained the Queen Mother with baked cakes and meat." Chen Mo couldn't help but hesitate a little.

Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Roasted cakes and meat?" Is this the only thing that can't be? ”

Chen Lin also felt cold, but he didn't dare to tell a lie, so he had to respond: "Yes, only this is the same." ”

"Candied fruits, dried fruits, seasonal fruits, and snacks, don't you have some of these?" The green tendons on Zhao Zhen's head appeared, and he let his biological mother nibble on the meatloaf alone, thinking about it, there was no royal style in that scene. Chen Lin smiled bitterly and nodded, "No." ”

"Isn't this kind of food too ordinary, there are dozens of people selling baked cakes and meat in Bianliang City." Zhao Zhen couldn't help but look slightly gloomy, but shook his head and sighed: "This An Le Hou must be used to living a poor life and has never seen the world. actually used such crude food to entertain the queen mother, and he didn't dislike losing the face of the marquis. suddenly rich, but there is no rich family. The Queen Mother loves him so much, but he only makes a meal of baked cakes and meat, for fear that he will be broken. ”

Chen Lin didn't dare to look at Zhao Zhen's face, lowered his head and hesitated to reply: "The minister was very happy to see the Queen Mother, and he didn't dislike anything. An Lehou is also very filial, and the minister saw with his own eyes that An Lehou personally wiped his hands and mouths for the Queen Mother, just like ordinary people. ”

Listening to Chen Lin's words, Zhao Zhen was stunned, and said in amazement: "If it weren't for the testimony of the Eighth King, the Empress Dowager Yang and you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have easily recognized my mother." It's just that I haven't seen each other for many years, although there is a connection between bone and blood, but after all, there are some births. The joy of family that originally belonged to me is now due to An Lehou, which really makes me envious. ”

Chen Lin hurriedly comforted: "The official family is also the most filial person, and when the official family and the queen mother are familiar with it, they can regain the relationship between mother and son, so that the mother and son of the official family can be harmonious." ”

"Then An Lehou took the errand, but did you say anything?" Zhao Zhen asked again.

An Lehou only asked about Yulu, and the ministers answered them one by one.

Zhao Zhen frowned and said: "He didn't ask what he should do as an official, but he asked first." I don't think An Lehou's mind is on an errand. If he doesn't do a good job, I'll let him go to Qinfeng Road to guard the border! ”

Chen Lin stood with his hands down like an old monk, he couldn't say anything, the official family said this, obviously his mother was biased and a little tasteful. Jealousy distorts the psychology of the officials, and An Lehou is afraid that he will be unhappy.

Fan Yu sent his stepmother away, and watched the queen mother's guard of honor go far away before turning back to the house.

Zhan Zhao also returned to the Hou Mansion in the evening. When the Queen Mother arrived at the house before, Zhanzhao was not good at participating as an outsider, so he went outside under the pretext of going outside.

When he came back at this time, Zhanzhao carried a lot of famous food, wine and meat in Bianliang City.

When Fan Yu saw Zhanzhao, he found that the other party was happy.

"Little Brother Fan, come and have a drink with me." When Zhan Zhao saw Fan Yu, he immediately greeted him.

"Brother Zhan, seeing you snickering from time to time, did you encounter anything good?" Fan Yu asked Chen Fang to pick up the things in Zhanzhao's hand, and asked about Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao laughed, gave Fan Yu a thumbs up and said, "Little Brother Fan, your guess is good, it is indeed a good thing." ”

Fan Yu raised his eyebrows, and said in some surprise: "Could it be ...... Governor Bao recommended you as an official? ”

He knew that Zhanzhao defected to Bao Zheng, firstly, because he was upright, and secondly, he also had the heart to serve the country. Therefore, Zhanzhao's so-called good thing should be to have an official body.

"Hahaha, exactly!" Zhan Zhao couldn't help but say out loud: "Today, when the Queen Mother came to your mansion, I went to Kaifeng Mansion." Today, the prefect of Bao is not busy, so he talked to me. He said, "He has recommended me as an official." If there is no accident, it should be in the third class of the palace. ”

Fan Yu hurriedly bowed his hand to Zhanzhao and said: "Then I will congratulate Brother Zhan, my wish has come true, and I will finally be able to contribute to the country and repay my losses." ”

Zhan Zhao waved his hand, "I'm happy today, little brother Fan, you are the marquis, you want to drink some wine with me." ”

"Naturally, I have to accompany him, Brother Zhan is an official, and our brothers are all contributing to the court." Fan Yu said with a smile.

"By the way, I heard from Governor Bao that he recommended you to the official family and wanted to give you a real errand and let you make a weapon." When Zhan Zhao heard this, he asked Fan Yu.

Fan Yu nodded and admitted, "The official family has already sent the will today, and I plan to go to the Ordnance Institute tomorrow to have a look." You can't just go to office with a black eye. In other words, Governor Bao was enthusiastic and recommended both of our brothers. ”

Zhanzhao drank a glass of water and wine by himself, looked at Fan Yu and said: "Governor Bao recommended me because I am a martial artist and have the heart to serve the country." I recommend you Brother Fan, I'm afraid that you will have nothing to do and leak the machinery to the people. ”

Fan Yu nodded, Bao Zheng recommended himself, there must be a reason for this.

It's nothing, though. As my stepmother said, since I have arranged myself in the Ordnance Institute, I will make some achievements. The stepmother's face is bright, and the official family is also better-looking. The key is to strengthen the armament of the Great Song Dynasty and make the Song army stronger.
