Chapter 3: The Spring of the Third Year of Daguan (II)
Li Kou knew that the Northern Song Dynasty Shaosheng four years, he coincidentally promoted to a deputy township chief, during the publicity period ran to Guyuan to play water park, passing by a small place, get off the car and see a stone tablet, the top introduced that the place is very famous in the Northern Song Dynasty, Shaosheng four years that is, in 1097, the Northern Song Dynasty built a military fortress in this place, called Pingxia City, he asked curiously, the administrator knew that he was from Pingliang, He also told him that Pingxia City was built by a cattle man who was in Pingliang when he was the governor of Weizhou, and led the Northern Song Dynasty Western Army and the Western Route Army at that time to fight with the Xixia people.
For this reason, Li Kou also took a look at the cow named Zhang Kai, and found that an interesting thing happened in the fourth year of Shaosheng, Mr. Su Shi, who often has the suffix "familiar with reading and reciting" in middle school Chinese textbooks, was relegated to Danzhou, Hainan to eat lychees that year.
But what does this Shaosheng four years have to do with the three years of Daguan?
"Pingliang is still in the hands of the Central Plains Dynasty, and the surname of Zhizhou is folded, so it can be seen that this time is likely to be the Northern Song Dynasty." Li Kou was a little anxious in his heart, he wanted to know the exact time.
People's fears often come from the unknown, and Li Kou is not exempt from the world.
He wanted to at least know when and where he was.
Otherwise, in this strange era, he squatted in a small river with a group of people who fled from nowhere to the "hometown" that was not his hometown because of the climate, bandits, or the invasion of the surrounding Tibetan people, waiting for an unknown future, and it was difficult for him to settle down. If he is upset, he can't survive, and he must make sure that he survives.
At this moment, the sound of chickens and dogs barking came from the riverbank, the man was mourning and asking for hot soup, someone with a closer voice was drinking, I don't know whose children were crying, and a woman was reprimanding in the yard, "Go, go".
But that man made Li Kou feel a little bit better.
The man was begging from door to door: "As long as a hot soup saves people's lives, the family is grateful." β
Li Kou glanced at the man's family, touched the meat bun in his pocket, and groaned slightly in his heart.
Suddenly, a person sneered in the river: "You Zhu Wen, your own wife doesn't care about the family, for a ghost who freezes to death, don't you give up the face of lifting people three times?" β
It came from the mouth of a hunched idler at a campfire.
There was a laughing sound in the river, which seemed to echo the idler.
Li Kou was surprised when he heard this, and he was still laughed at three times?
Could it be that this is not a big gift of "the best boy who is the best man outside the Donghua Gate", no, the Great Song Dynasty?
Someone on the embankment also laughed: "It turns out that he is still a talented man, and he is very rude and rude - don't be busy, you wait here, there is still a pot of hot soup." β
As he spoke, the man went with a smile, and for a moment there was a sound of the door, and a moment there was a crowd of people in the courtyard laughing "Xiucaigong, hehe, Xiucaigong who was lifted in the three times".
Li Kou couldn't understand why he was still ridiculed in these three times, but he knew that the word "Xiucai" was a somewhat ridiculous word in the Song Dynasty.
In "Water Margin", Wang Lun is a person who is despised for being a "non-talented talent" who has been asked for many times.
But what kind of contempt arises from the head, Li Kou has no way of knowing.
He vaguely felt that Xu is the imperial examination system of the Song Dynasty did not match the things he learned on TV, but he couldn't tell how it didn't match.
The laughter on the riverbank and the laughter in the river made Li Kou feel extremely harsh.
Thinking about it, the identity of Nahan's "three lifters" is indeed the laughing stock of this era.
Li Kou didn't wait for a moment, and the man on the river embankment said with a smile: "Take the hot soup, but Xiucai Gong didn't forget to spill the family pot." β
The man thanked him repeatedly, and a lamp hung up from a high gate, only to see the man jump down from a high place, and a few ups and downs returned to Li Kou.
At this time, Li Kou looked at his face, it was a middle-aged man who was about 20 centimeters taller than him, 1.8 meters tall and still wealthy, with a clear appearance, a very thin face, a square face with Chinese characters, three long beards floating on his chest, his face was quite sad, but his eyes had a period of righteousness.
Li Kou remembered that the idler called him Zhu Wen.
That Zhu Wen carried a copper kettle with a look of joy on his face, and took two coarse porcelain bowls in one hand, and when he came over, he was about to pour water to scald the bowl, and his mouth was full of just saying: "Some hot soup is enough to warm up." β
Li Kou was worried in his heart, raised his hand to stop Zhu Wen, and asked calmly: "Sir, do you know that Weizhou is far away from Pingxia City?" β
He stared at Zhu Wen and watched his expression change.
Since this person is a scholar, he thinks he knows Pingxia City.
I just hope that this Pingxia City has been repaired, otherwise there is no way to know the age.
Zhu Wen really knew that Pingxia City, hot bowls in his hands, and said in his mouth: "The Sprinkle family only knows that Pingxia City is in the northwest of Weizhou, and I don't know how many miles I have goneβis Xiaolang a disciple of the soldiers of Pingxia City?" β
He looked up at Li Kou, only looking at this young man's wide mouth, thick eyebrows and big eyes, very Kansai species, and saw that he was dressed quite strangely, with short hair like a hedgehog, and he was extremely surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "It has been nearly twelve years since the construction of Pingxia City, and the Sprinkle family looks at Xiaolang's age, I am afraid that he is also a person born before and after Pingxia City became a person, but how did he get to Weizhou again?" β
Li Kou's heart was a little more steady.
The fourth year of Song Zhezong Shaosheng was 1097 AD, nearly 12 years, that is, from the end of 1108 to the beginning of 1109. The notice said that it was the first month of the third year of Daguan, which must be the year 1109.
At this time, it should be the period of Song Huizong, right?
After Li Kou remembered Song Zhezong, it seemed that he was Song Huizong.
He didn't have a good impression of the emperors after Song Taizu in the Song Dynasty, even Song Renzong, who was liked by literati, didn't like it - that era produced Fan Zhongyan and other people who are said to have the most talents in history, but they still didn't solve the problems that should be solved, can this be a dynasty that normal people like?
Especially in the line of Song Taizong, Li Kou seems that the emperors are better than the master of micro-manipulation and the captain of the transportation brigade.
So he was rather unfamiliar with this dynasty.
Now that he has received the news of the times, Li Kou is a little happier.
In the third year of Huizong Daguan in the Northern Song Dynasty, in 1109 AD, Jingyuan Road Weizhou, he was a reluctant traverser who came.
Na Zhu Wen handed over a bowl of water, holding another big bowl under his arm, and he had to go back to bring some hot soup to his family.
Li Kou took the bowl with his hand, saw Zhu Wen empty-handed, groped around his waist for a moment, and pulled out a narrow bag, this thing should be called a blanket, the blanket contained a little tinkling thing at one end, maybe it was a copper coin, and a shriveled bag at the other end, I don't know what it was.
Zhu Wen stretched out his hand and took out a handful of flour from his coat, and he could smell a light smell of fried noodles in the cold wind.
He gritted his teeth and pinched a pinch of flour to put it in the big bowl in Li Kou's hand.
It looked as if a pinch of flour was all he had.
Li Kou guessed that it was the ration that his family had survived the cold night, so he naturally refused to enjoy it, even if he wanted to taste the saltiness of the fried noodles of the Song Dynasty.
"Not busy." Li Kou took the bowl and waited for the hot soup to cool down before using it, took out the two meat buns from his pocket with one hand, put them in Zhu Wen's hand, and said, "Hot water-hot soup and keep it first, take this one, let the child eat first." β
Zhu Wen's eyes showed a strange light, and he couldn't help laughing.
In his opinion, the person in front of him is just a taller young man, although he seems to be quite stable, but the complexion shows that he is a taller, Xu was also a rich and decent man, how dare he call his children "children"?
It's just that he felt the weight of the two pieces of bread in his hand, and Zhu Wen was very grateful in his heart.
When he looked closely, he saw two pieces of dough soaked in oil and water in the transparent soft bag, and there was meat in them!
Zhu Wen hesitated for a moment, seeing that the meatloaf was peculiar, just looking at it, it smelled tight, carefully put one away, and sent one back with both hands.
Li Kou waved his hand and taught him to take it all, and said, "I'm not hungry." β
This......
"Go, the wind is quiet here, if you don't dislike it, you can live together, I also have some noodles here, and a few cotton clothes, enough to warm up your body, so you can survive until dawn." Li Kou said.
Zhu Wen pursed his lips for a moment, put down the copper kettle in his hand, and then turned to his family with a deep swipe at Li Kou.
