For Bao Zheng at this time, in one sentence, what happened to him tonight is: afraid of wolves in the front, and afraid of the road in the back.

Tonight in the street division yamen, he was raided by the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty who went out of the palace at night to pay a private visit, and was seen by Zhao Zhen, he was in the backyard of the street division yamen, with so many street division officials, box army soldiers and Kaifeng Mansion officials, and they were eating meat and eating meat together, which scared him so much that his face was like dirt.

In the office room in the front yard of the Street Division, Bao Zheng and Zhao Zhen had not yet started a conversation, and he was already ready to accept Zhao Zhen's reprimand and blame, and sure enough, Zhao Zhen was very angry about this.

Zhao Zhen said that he, as the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, was a third-grade member of the Great Song Dynasty, how could he mix with these soldiers to drink and have fun, it was a shame.

Bao Zheng, who felt aggrieved about this, did not make compromises, but defended himself by saying that tonight was a celebration dinner, and in order to celebrate, three days after the notice was posted in Kaifeng Mansion, all the illegal buildings marked with the word "demolition" in Tokyo were demolished by themselves before noon.

After learning what happened, Zhao Zhen, who was furious, was half angry, and felt that the tolerance of the Street Division, a battalion of soldiers of the Xiangjun Army and two hundred Kaifeng Mansion officials had been busy for more than three hours to verify them one by one, and it was indeed hard enough, and it didn't hurt to drink and eat meat to celebrate tonight.

It is worth mentioning that in the office room in the front yard of the Street Division, Zhao Zhen asked Bao Zheng for his opinion, Taishi Pang Ji and Li Yuanhao sent Li Wengui of the Western Xia royal family in Tokyo City, and negotiated on peace matters for several months.

So far, there has been no war in the northwest border where the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia were handed over, and it can be seen that Li Yuanhao is still very sincere in negotiating peace.

Under such circumstances, whether it was possible to recruit Xia Zhu, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others who were stationed in the northwest frontier into the country was specially to solicit Bao Zheng's opinion.

Among the courtiers, Bao Zheng has few people who can talk to each other, and there are only a few people who can be called "friends" with each other, and there are even fewer people, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Han Qi, Fu Bi and others, Bao Zheng is an official in the same dynasty as them, but he hates the same concept as an official and can be called like-minded, and his private interactions are naturally too close.

Hearing that Zhao Zhen was going to transfer Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others back to Beijing, Bao Zheng was secretly excited in his heart, but he pretended to be calm on the surface, and proposed to Zhao Zhen that if the official family was determined to reform the old system and work hard, Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi were indispensable, and if they could stay in the capital as officials, they could definitely become the right-hand men of the official family.

After listening to Bao Zheng's answer, Zhao Zhen felt very satisfied, and immediately decided to discuss the matter with the courtiers in the court early tomorrow morning.

After all, although there was no war on the northwest border for the time being, before that, Li Yuanhao, who founded the Western Xia, had many times been capricious in his attitude towards peace matters, and once Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others were requisitioned back to Beijing, once there was a war in the northwest, I am afraid that they would fall into a dangerous situation where no one was available.

When Bao Zheng returned home, he learned from his wife Dong that he wanted to say a family affair for their eldest daughter Bao Qianqian, and Dong intended to let Wang Hao, who had just been the street secretary for less than ten days, become their Bao family's fast son-in-law.

Although Bao Zheng is a scholar, he is not pedantic and conservative, and in terms of his children's marriage, he is not anxious to let his children get married as soon as possible, but hopes that they can find someone they love to marry and stay together for the rest of their lives.

Take Bao Zheng's eldest daughter Bao Qianqian as an example, she is 17 years old this year, and in ordinary people's homes, she has either been engaged, married, or has given birth to children.

However, Bao Zheng let Bao Qianqian read and write, and invited two old friends, Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu, to be Bao Qianqian's teachers, to go to Fan Zhongyan's house to study for one day every five days, and after five days, go to Ouyang Xiu's house to study for one day.

In view of the fact that Fan Zhongyan has been in the northwest for several years, Bao Qianqian also goes to Ouyang Xiu's house to study every ten days, and tomorrow happens to be the 30th day of the lunar calendar in March, which happens to be the day when Bao Qianqian goes to Ouyang Xiu's house to study.

In addition to teaching Bao Zheng's eldest daughter Bao Qianqian, Ouyang Xiu also taught Bao Zheng's second daughter, fifteen-year-old Bao Wenwen, in addition to the two Bao sisters, there are also many daughters of imperial relatives, among them, there is Zhao Huiruo, the daughter of Song Renzong Zhao Zhen and Miao Guifei.

Although, in ancient Chinese history, the Song Dynasty has always been known for "emphasizing literature over martial arts", and it is very much to treat scholars, especially literati, and there is also a special institution such as Guozijian to train scholars.

However, in the Song Dynasty, women were not allowed to enter the Guozijian to study, and even those who went to private schools were rare, and in most cases, they were asked to study alone.

Ouyang Xiu, as Yan Shu's proud protégé, when he was 22 years old, followed Xu Yan, who knew the Yang Army of the Han Dynasty, to Beijing, and in the spring of the seventh year of Tiansheng (1029), he was promoted by Xu Yan and tried to be in the Guozijian of Kaifeng Prefecture.

In the autumn of that year, Ouyang Xiu participated in the examination of Guozijian, and won the first place in the Guangwenguan examination and the Guoxue examination of Guozixue, becoming the supervisor and the Yuan, and won the first place in the provincial examination of the Ministry of Rites in the second year, becoming the provincial yuan. As a result, the fame grew.

In the eighth year of Tiansheng (1030), Ouyang Xiu participated in the palace examination presided over by Song Renzong himself and held in the Chongzheng Palace. According to Yan Shu, the examiner of Ouyang Xiu's fellow villagers at the time, Ouyang Xiu failed to win the championship mainly because his edge was too exposed, and the examiners wanted to frustrate his spirit and promote his success.

And that year's palace exam, Wang Gongchen, who was both Ouyang Xiu's brother-in-law and Ouyang Xiu's brother-in-law, became the champion.

Later, he was called to the Academy, awarded the official Xuande Lang, returned to Beijing to serve as the pavilion proofreader, and participated in the compilation of the "Chongwen General Catalogue".

After that, Ouyang repaired the pavilion as a proofreader, edited the "Chongwen General Catalogue", and was later ordered to know the Yuan. In the third year of Qingli (1043), that is, now, Ouyang Xiu served as the right speaker and the knowledge system.

It is precisely because of Ouyang Xiu's talent that many imperial relatives and ministers of the court sent their daughters to Ouyang Xiu's house to study, as a diligent and studious female student, Bao Qianqian is one of the best, and often leave early and be naughty sooner or later, Princess Fukang Zhao Huiruo is the first to bear the brunt.

After listening to Dong's proposal, Bao Zheng neither agreed nor objected on the spot, but said wait and see, don't worry, wait until their eldest daughter Bao Qianqian is eighteen years old, that is, next year, and it is not too late to talk about the Lun family.

It's not that Bao Zheng looks down on Wang Hao, but thinks that Wang Hao will definitely become a weapon in the future, and it is possible to achieve more achievements in his career than him.

What worries Bao Zheng is that Wang Hao may have been remembered by Queen Cao and Miao Guifei for a long time, and nine times out of ten he will promise to marry Wang Hao a princess, once Wang Hao becomes a concubine, he and Dong's eldest daughter Bao Qianqian, whether they marry Wang Hao first or then marry Wang Hao, will definitely be condescended to the concubine in the end.

As a parent, Bao Zheng naturally hopes that the person his daughter marries can become the other party's hair extension wife, and it must be the main room, which is one of his major concerns at present.
