30,000 miles east of the river into the sea, 5,000 miles on the sky.

The bereaved people were in tears, and they looked south to Wang Shi for another year.

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin soldiers went south to encircle and break through Bianliang, and the stormy Great Song Dynasty was like a frightened sparrow flying south, and the clothes and official residences that were hurriedly abandoned were the only explanations for the people in the north!

After the Jingkang Change, the Southern Song Dynasty regime became more and more corrupt, although there were a number of famous anti-Jin generals, but there were no traitors in success, and the Northern Expedition could only end in failure.

The sudden rise of the Mongols in the Mobei steppe put an end to the last hope of the subjects of the Southern Song Dynasty. With Lu Xiufu carrying the king of Wei Zhao to the sea and died, the world-famous Mongolian iron cavalry was no longer invincible.

Hundreds of people who have suffered from war are looking forward to the arrival of a prosperous era, how can heaven and earth be unkind! After the death of Kublai Khan, the ruler of the Yuan Dynasty, the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty intensified their efforts to levy various taxes on the Han people, and the brutal national oppression made people unable to breathe.

To live is the only thought of every poor person!

The powerless Yao family was naturally not spared, and they were also one of the suffering people. The Yao family originally lived in Bianliang, crossed the Yangtze River in order to avoid the disaster of war, and came to the area of Changzhou County under the jurisdiction of Pingjiang Road, and finally chose to rent a house in the town.

It was December of the third year of the Yuan Dynasty (1335 AD).

In the Daming Hall of the Imperial Palace of Yuan Dadu, a grand and grand banquet was held.

The emperor stood on the top of the palace, dressed in a red grandson robe, with gold thread and woven folds around his waist, jewels hanging on his shoulders and a warm hat with red and gold jackets.

The time has come, after the signal of the Yifeng Si Musician, a group of musicians in the Yunhe Department under his jurisdiction sang and laughed, and the beautiful women in the teaching workshop danced with a splendid flower crown......

After singing and dancing, the emperor did not sit down. All the ministers also stood beside the seats, silent.

Such a strange scene lasted for about half a burnt incense time, and a person outside the hall held his head high and strode towards the hall. This person wore a crown of seven treasures on his head, wore a set of furry sun clothes, stepped on gold silk camel boots, and hung more jewels on his shoulders than the emperor in the palace.

When he arrived in the center of the hall, the emperor bowed to the emperor in the hall and said loudly: "There are many trivial matters to be dealt with in the court, which has caused Boyan to miss the hour, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

All the ministers in the palace gasped, this Boyan had already dared to be so presumptuous!

The emperor seemed to be accustomed to it, and smiled, "Answer: "Answer, I am not in the state affairs, and I have worked hard, so I don't need to be polite, please take a seat." ”

After Boyan took the first seat, the emperor sat down, and a group of ministers dared to sit down, and the banquet of the grandson, which symbolized the imperial power, in the palace was like Boyan's family banquet!

Boyan was originally the life of Wenzong and Ningzong, but he was always suppressed by the powerful minister Yan Timur. Later, Yan Timur died due to excessive indulgence, and Boyan then supported Timur to ascend to the throne of God, and was awarded the title of the right prime minister of Zhongshu and Shangzhu State with the merit of Yi Dai.

Although Yan Timur died, his family still controlled the government, and Timur appointed his younger brother Satun as the prime minister of Zuo, his son Tang Qishi as the imperial historian, and his daughter Boya Wu as the empress. Seeing that Boyan was becoming more and more dominant, Tang Qishi and others were ashamed of being under Boyan, so they deliberately plotted to disturb power, but in the end they were denounced by King Tan. Boyan then killed Tang Qishi and others, and the queen Boyawu was guilty of covering up and was also expelled from the palace and poisoned.

The emperor has no power in his hands, and he has no choice but to re-seal Boyan, and specifically order him to be the right prime minister of the middle book, and the left prime minister will not be replaced, and give him the title of "Arakhan", and his descendants will be hereditary. Since then, the order of the court has been returned to Boyan, so that he dares to be so authoritarian and self-indulgent.

After Boyan was in power and in the opposition, he politically implemented the policy of national oppression of "excluding Han", and even abolished the imperial examination system. Emperor Tuhuan Timur had the intention to make great efforts, but he could not resist the power of Boyan, and changed the name of the era to "Zhiyuan" in the name of "Zushu Shizu", trying to reproduce the prosperous era of Kublai Khan.

There is still such chaos among the royal family and nobles, and the lives of the common people are even more miserable and miserable.

Although the Yao family fled to the relatively wealthy land south of the Yangtze River, they were neither familiar with the cultivation methods of the local water towns, nor could they hold boats to fish, and they no longer had any land, so their lives were extremely difficult.

Fortunately, after several generations of hard work, he gradually mastered some superficial medical skills and relied on them to survive and support his family, but it was only a temporary solution to food and clothing, and the house he lived in was still rented.

Although the Yao family was poor, their ancestors had accumulated virtue and done good deeds for generations, often did not charge medical fees for poor neighbors, and often stayed with monks and Taoist priests in the past.

To Yao Zhenqing's generation, Yao Zhenqing, who is honest and responsible, is diligent and capable, and quite studious, so that his medical skills are a little better, and because of his low medical and medical expenses, most of the neighbors come here to seek medical treatment when they are not well, so the life of several families has improved slightly.

The Yao family has five people, Yao's mother Zhou, wife Fei, as well as the eldest son Yao Heng and daughter Yao Xiao. Yao Zhenqing and his wife Fei are already in love, and this year Fei is pregnant again, Yao Zhenqing's joy can be imagined. Mother-in-law Zhou also took care of her pregnant daughter-in-law in every way, chanting scriptures and reciting Buddha every day, praying that Fei could add another boy to the family.

At the end of the day, when the children had fallen asleep, Yao Zhenqing took off his long shirt, stretched his waist and turned his head to pack his bags.

"Xianggong, I'll clean up these, you can rest early." Fei Shi knew that her husband had been on the road for a day, and how could he be burdened when he returned home.

Yao Zhenqing helped his wife sit down with a smile on his face, stroking her already bulging belly, "Don't work now, take care of the baby with peace of mind." ”

"It's okay, I should be active too." Looking at her husband's loving look, she said softly: "This time when you go out, although the journey is not far, you still have to pay attention to your body and don't be too tired." ”

"Don't worry, this trip is entrusted to treat people, and I want to be paid no less, so I will rush back as soon as possible. You are pregnant now and have limited mobility, don't do heavy work, your mother will take care of you. Yao Zhenqing held his wife's hands and instructed gently.

Knowing that her husband and mother-in-law care for her, she can think of her mother-in-law reverently chanting the scriptures day and night, and she can't help but smile bitterly, "Since I entered the door, my mother has been very good to me, and I am afraid that my stomach will not be angry, and I will not be able to give my mother another grandson to make her happy." ”

Without waiting for Yao Zhenqing to reply, the door creaked open, and Yao's mother Zhou walked in with a bowl of soup.

"I see that you don't eat much at night, this is what I just boiled, you drink it to replenish your body."

"Thank you, mother." Fei Shi hurriedly took it.

Looking at her daughter-in-law's well-behaved appearance, she was happy, "It's not that I deliberately eavesdropped, but when I heard it, I said a few words, my mother really wants to have more grandchildren, but I didn't say that granddaughters are bad, grandsons are the meat of the heart, and granddaughters are also the meat of the heart, don't always think about something useless." ”

Yao Zhenqing answered: "Yes, my mother likes her granddaughter, don't always think too much, not to mention that we already have Heng'er." Fei Shi was moved in his heart and nodded yes.

Zhou turned his head again and told his son: "Pay attention to safety when you go out this time, go early and return early." ”

"Mother, don't worry."

Zhou turned around and left, Yao Zhenqing and his wife also went to the bed to rest, but Yao Zhenqing, who had something on his mind, had no sleep.

By Yao Zhenqing's father's generation, the Yao family had relied on medical skills for a living, although they were poor, they were still slightly better than ordinary people, if they lost this medical skill and then rented fields to farm, I am afraid that they would not be as good as ordinary people.

The Yao family does not have a family history such as a famous resident doctor, and not every heir can heal people by relying on the superficial medical skills passed down by word of mouth from their fathers. If you want to study medicine, you must at least have a rough understanding of literature and ink, and to become a famous doctor, you need a wide range of knowledge. But the eldest son Yao Heng's talent is indeed a little worse, and it is okay to want to practice medicine in the future, but it is impossible to go further.

If you can have a talented and intelligent son to inherit what you have learned and be more diligent, you can make the Yao family not worry about food and clothing in this troubled world. After tossing and turning for a long time, Yao Zhenqing fell asleep.

Yao Zhenqing was away from home for a long time, and finally returned home before his wife gave birth. Fei's hoarse shouts filled the entire courtyard, Rao is wife has given birth for the third time, and the family is still extremely nervous.

The two villains, Yao Heng and Yao Xiao, who followed their father in the yard, also looked nervous. Worried about his mother's safety and looking forward to his upcoming brother or sister, he realized that his mother had to endure such pain when she gave birth to herself, and she thought about not making her angry again in the future.

With the baby's loud cry, Yao Zhenqing's anxious footsteps stopped, and Yao Heng and Yao Xiao also immediately ran to the door.

Zhou opened the door with one hand and wiped the tears on his face with the other, "Bodhisattva bless, mother and son are safe, you have another son." ”

Yao Zhenqing hurriedly rushed to the house to visit his wife, Fei's hair was already soaked with sweat, scattered on his forehead, although he was already weak, he still held the baby boy in his arms tightly, and when he saw his husband come in, he said weakly: "Xianggong, it's a son." ”

Listening to his wife's hoarse voice, Yao Zhenqing's moist eyes could no longer be controlled, tears quickly covered his face, and he lowered his body to hug his wife.

Yao Heng and Yao Xiao also came in with the Zhou family, and were completely attracted by the immature and young creatures in their mother's arms.

The baby boy kept crying, Yao Xiao carefully touched the baby's little hand with her fingers, turned her head and asked, "Daddy, what's my brother's name?" ”

Zhou stopped his tears of joy and said with a smile: "Heng'er's name was chosen by your father before his death, and you will take the child's name yourself." ”

Yao Zhenqing lay beside the couch, gently stroked the crying baby boy, and said slowly: "God bless, mother and child are safe, I hope God will give our Yao family's child a happy and long life, just call him Tianxi." ”

Yao Heng clapped his hands and said, "Yao Tianxi! Yao Tianxi! Hehe, I have a younger brother! ”

"Good name, I hope my grandson will have a great future in the future."

As the saying goes, "Today I have to make Zhang very happy and comfort the ancestors." The family was happy and burned incense and prayed for blessings.
