"Sister doesn't have to be like this, it's really only more than 600 miles, more than 10 days away. Xia Langjun will return to Beijing once in half a year at most, and you will be able to meet him then. Cao Shujun didn't want Cao Shuli and Xia Xiang's farewell to interrupt the farewell mood he deliberately created, he just sang a song and felt good about himself, "Xia Langjun, Brother Zhang, Brother Teng, Brother Zheng, Brother Shen, by the way, and Wu ...... Brother, can you feel fascinated in the next song "Yangguan Three Stacks" just now? ”

Cao Shujun saw that Wu Yongwang's face was vicissitudes, and he was the same age as his father, and it was unseemly to call him Brother Wu, and after thinking about it, he felt that calling Wu Gong was too distant, so he had to call him Brother Wu.

Wu Yongwang didn't care, nodded and smiled: "Just call me Brother Wu, a jinshi in the same year, not by age, but by knowledge." ”

Zhang Hou snorted, turned his face away, and ignored Cao Shujun. Teng Zhengyuan said seriously: "There is more than wildness, but there is not enough restraint." There is less tragedy of singing and sighing, and more of the funny ......"

Xia Xiang, Shen Bao and Zheng Hao just smiled and did not respond.

Cao Yongguo shook his head helplessly, he was too lazy to discipline Cao Shujun too much, let him do whatever he wanted, fortunately, now Cao Shujun and Haojing Chang are in an alliance, and they have become the guests of Haojingchang, and he is expected to become a special master of Haojingchang in the future, he is also much calmer, as long as Cao Shujun has something to do, he no longer always thinks about running away from home to find immortals, and he no longer forces him to take the exam.

Cao Yongguo said indifferently: "It's not early, Xia Langjun should start early, don't delay the trip." ”

"Yes, thank you Gong Cao for sending me off." Xia Xiang wanted to know Cao Yongguo when he first came to Beijing, and now Cao Yongguo's condition is all good and his complexion is good, he is also very relieved, "Presumably Cao Gong's good things are approaching, and he is about to be promoted." ”

Cao Yongguo was stunned for a moment, thinking that Xia Xiang was so young, how could he think that he was expected to be promoted? He has been idle for many years, not only can the emperor no longer remember his name, but even when the officials are selected by the ministry, no one thinks of his existence. If Li Dingshan is still above the court, if Song Chaodu is still a servant of the ministry, it is not impossible for him to take a step higher, but now...... No one in the court spoke for him, how could he re-enter the emperor's ears?

Cao Yongguo shook his head and smiled gloomily: "The old man is dedicated to serving the court, but now that the powerful ministers are in charge, the emperor is not safe and has no intention of ruling the government, even if he is promoted, what is the use?" However, it is still necessary to rely on the powerful ministers for the use of rebellious ministers and thieves. ”

"That being said, you can't just give in. The new law is unpopular with the people, and people of insight are all opposed to it. Although there are countless ministers who have been deposed or degraded, if the government and the opposition are all flattering and new, the saints cannot hear the people's suffering, no one will uphold justice for the people, the Great Xia Dynasty will not be in good shape, and the world will inevitably be in chaos. Xia Xiang earnestly advised, "Cao Gong should share his worries for the saint and ask for his life for the people, and giving in and forbearance will only make the powerful ministers, traitorous ministers, and rebellious ministers more arrogant." When the dark clouds are in the sky, it takes a strong wind to see the sun through the clouds and the yellow sand to reach the gold. ”

Cao Yongguo's expression was awe-inspiring, and his heart suddenly rose with great pride, thinking that he had been an official all his life, and the ups and downs of officialdom for half a lifetime, although he was not bullying, but he had never fought with the ministers to the end.

"What Xia Langjun said is very true, the old man has been taught." Cao Yongguo gave Xia Xiang a deep salute, thinking that Xia Xiang would dare to pull down Wen Changju, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, with a body in white clothes, not because of the recklessness of courage and resourcefulness, but because of the courage to strategize.

Cao Yongguo didn't wait for Xia Xiang to return the salute, laughed, turned around and walked away: "From today onwards, the old man will repay the king's intention on the golden platform and bring the jade dragon to die for the king......."

As soon as Cao Yongguo left, Cao Shuli and Cao Shujun also left one after another. Compared with Cao Shuli's reluctance, Cao Shujun's reluctance had more complex emotions that could not be understood, he glanced at Lian Ruohan who was standing under the shade of a tree not far away, swallowed back what he wanted to say, and scribbled towards Xia Xiang: "Xia Langjun, I am waiting for you to return to Beijing in Guanxin Pavilion." ”

"Serving the country with one body and ten thousand deaths, and the temples are no longer green!" Teng Zhengyuan hugged his fists and saluted, and also left.

Then Wu Yongwang and Zheng Hao also turned around and left.

Shen Bao's expression was solemn, as if he had a thousand words, and finally it turned into only two words: "Take care." ”

Zhang Hou just arched his hand, didn't even say a word, and left with Shen Bao.

"Xia Langjun, it's time to go."

Seeing that everyone was gone, Xia Xiang still stood still, and Lian Ruohan opened his mouth to remind Xia Xiang: "If it's too late, you won't be able to catch up with Zhuozhou before dark." ”

"Wait a little longer, there's still one more person yet." Xia Xiang put his hand on the canopy, looking at the road from afar, the traffic on the road was busy, shoulder to shoulder, even if someone came to see him off, he couldn't tell whether he was in the crowd or not.

"Who else will come?" Lian Ruohan walked to Xia Xiang's side, and everyone saw Xia Xiang off, she stood aside, not approaching, "If you have the heart to see you off, you should have arrived a long time ago." If you don't come at this time, you have no intention. ”

"No, no." Xia Xiang shook his head and smiled mysteriously, "Even the little lady doesn't know, this friend has the heart to come to see him off, but he won't show up when there are many people, and he will definitely dare to appear when there are few people." ”

"Why don't you dare to show up when there are so many people?" Lian Ruohan smiled quietly and asked loudly, "Is he too ugly or stammering and faceless?" ”

"Ahem...... Even the little lady, saying bad things about people behind her back is not done by a righteous gentleman. ”

As soon as Lian Ruohan's words fell, an old voice came from behind the mound, and a person bypassed the mound and appeared in front of several people. A wisp of long beard and a long shirt are the golden armor.

Jin Jia looked left and right for a few times, and saw that there were indeed no outsiders except Xia Xiang, Lian Ruohan, Mantuo, and Xiao Wu, so he breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Literati are verbose, there are many things to talk about, see off when you see you off, and you have to say some bold words, and then burn incense and play the piano, fold willows and send each other, the ancestors are boarded, and the brains are painful, what a group of melon babies......"

Lian Ruohan was surprised: "What Mr. said just now, where is the dialect?" ”

"It should be the Shu dialect." Xia Xiang smiled, "Since Mr. Jin Jia has already arrived, why hide behind the mound and refuse to show up?" Are you afraid of seeing Cao Sanlang or Zhang Hou and Zhang Langjun? ”

"No, the old man is too lazy to talk to them." Jin Jia's eyes turned a few times, and Xia Xiang in his left hand and Lian Ruohan in his right hand pulled the two of them far away from Mantuo and Xiao Wu, and then whispered, "Wen Changju was dismissed, the third prince is very annoyed, you are really determined to go, you must be careful, don't fall into the way of the third prince." ”

Xia Xiang knew that the third prince would not give up, nodded and said, "Remember the teachings of Mr. ”

"What's the use of remembering the old man's teachings? The old man is not a person in the officialdom, and the old man does not understand the doorway in the court. However, in the old man's opinion, although the third prince is powerful, it is not so easy to play with you in the palm of his hand, and you are not a good character, hehe. Jin Jia laughed together, full of confidence, "The third prince has been very distressed recently, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you for a while." ”

"What's the trouble of the third prince?" Lian Ruohan and Jin Jia knew each other, and knew that Jin Jia's personality was because he was unrestrained in front of Jin Jia, "Sir, don't sell Guanzi, come quickly." ”

Xia Xiang smiled slightly: "The distress of the third prince is caused by the emperor's illness being mild and the matter of establishing the prince has been suspended. ”

Jin Jia patted a big tree beside him and grinned: "Sure enough, as the old man expected, the old man knew that you could guess the reason, and lived up to the old man's pure teachings to you." Thanks to your medicine bed and medicine chair, the emperor's condition has improved greatly, and it was the emperor who personally presided over the palace examination. Originally, it was decided that the third prince would preside over the palace examination on his behalf, which made the third prince very annoyed. The third prince thought that it was the old man's wonderful rejuvenation that cured the emperor's illness, and then he did everything possible to investigate, and finally learned that the medicine bed and medicine chair were your whimsical ideas, Xia Langjun, the third prince is very rare to you now. The third prince finally took control of the Ministry of Rites and let Wen Changju attach himself to his door, but you overthrew Wen Changju. The emperor is seriously ill, and the three princes think that they have the hope of succeeding to the throne, and it is your appearance that makes the emperor turn the corner, and the dream of the three princes to succeed to the throne has failed......"

Xia Xiang spread his hands innocently: "What's the matter with me?" overthrowing Wen Changju is just for the sake of justice for the world's examiners. The medicine bed and medicine chair are made just to heal the sick and save people. None of the two things is aimed at the three princes, and if the three princes have to be counted on me, I can only be helpless. ”

Regarded as a thorn in the flesh by the powerful three princes, Xia Xiang can still face it so easily, it is also rare, Xia Xiang is so vast as the wind and as wide as the sea, he doesn't worry about big things, and even Ruohan can't help but secretly admire.

"Don't care about the three princes first, the three princes will take care of you again, and you will always have to have the handle to fall into his hands, if you are an official, abide by the way of a gentleman who trembles, such as facing the abyss, and walking on thin ice, and three times a day, the three princes can't help you." Jin Jia didn't seem to care about Xia Xiang's situation, but repeatedly warned him to be careful, the meaning of concern was implied, he gently stroked Xia Xiang's shoulder, "It's a pity, you failed to worship the old man as a teacher as the old man wanted, but the old man can't be lost because of this, I will give you a special book, remember to read it often, after returning to Beijing, the old man will test you." If you fail the test, you will be punished. ”

Jin Jia took out a medical book and handed it to Xia Xiang, Xia Xiang took the book in his hand, and there were three big characters on the book: Jin Jia's biography, and he couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Is the book of Mr. a medical book or a personal biography?" ”

"Less nonsense, just watch it." Jin Jia's face flushed slightly, pulled Xia Xiang aside, and said in a low voice, "Xia Langjun, if the medicine bed and medicine chair can be produced in large quantities, it will be able to save all the people from the disease, when you are free, remember to improve the medicine bed and medicine chair, there are two main points, one is how to use charcoal instead of firewood to heat moxa, so as to avoid smoke and fire, and the other is that the medicine bed and medicine chair should be easy to move...... Remember the above two points. ”

Xia Xiang also has long had the heart of promoting the medicine bed and medicine chair to the world, which is beneficial to the people, which can not only help the world, but also strengthen the strength, killing two birds with one stone, why not? Immediately agreed.

The chariot, the horse Xiao Xiao, and the pedestrian with a sword are at the waist...... Xia Xiang and Lian Ruohan took the same car, went all the way south, and went straight to Zhending. The morning sun is rising, the golden light is ten thousand roads, and the sky is high and the wind is clear, along the way it is the autumn busy season of farming and farming, as far as the eye can see, the farmers are working in the fields, there are singing voices from time to time, which makes people forget their worries.

"The desert is fragrant with grass and flowers, and the forest is soft and green and long mulberry hemp. The pond is full of frogs into the city, and the door and alley are written in the spring of deep swallows. ”

The song is soft and melodious, floating in the fields.

Xia Xiang glanced at the book given by Jin Jia a few times, there was Jin Jia's autobiography in the book, but most of the words were the result of Jin Jia's lifelong experience in practicing medicine, which was detailed and clear, which can be called the whole book of Jin Jia's life. He was moved and glad that Mr. Jin Jia was bent on taking him as an apprentice, but he did not agree. However, Mr. gave away what he had learned in his life by giving books, although he did not have the name of master and apprentice, but he already had the reality of master and apprentice.

Xia Xiang closed the book and raised his eyes to look at Lian Ruohan who was leaning against the window: "Little lady Lian, thank you for letting me ride in the same car with you......"

"There are no outsiders in the car, why should you be so polite and alienate you and me?" Lian Ruohan's expression was a little lazy, her eyebrows moved slightly, and she glanced at Xia Xiang casually, "I just asked you to ride in the same car with me, and you are still a little reluctant, could it be that I am a tiger?" ”

Xia Xiang said with a smile: "How dare you, how dare you, I am afraid of causing gossip and insulting the reputation of the little lady." ”

Lian Ruohan said angrily: "You are ...... Before you had to admit my marriage contract with you, and you repeatedly teased me, but now you are good, and you are afraid of insulting my reputation, are you ridiculous or decent? ”

Xia Xiang was indeed worried from the bottom of his heart that he was in the same car with Lian Ruohan, and if it was spread out, it would damage her reputation. It is also pleasing to the eye that he wants to ride a horse, talk to Xiao Wu and Mantuo, and look at the scenery along the way. However, he also knew that Lian Ruohan did not shy away from suspicion, and if he had to ask him to ride in the same car, he must have something to say.

With Xia Xiang's grade and salary, he is really determined to take office here, either on foot, or it would be good to have a donkey cart, but at this time, it is an incense cart and several high-headed horses, all of which are Lian Ruohan's help, not his financial resources.

Mantuo and Xiao Wu rode horses and followed, one left and one right, Xiao Wu with a knife, Mantuo held a sword, like two protectors. Behind the two, there was also a carriage, and in the carriage was Lian Ruohan's Yahuan Ling'er. In the back of the car, there are some soft and changing clothes, and there is not much luggage. Lian Ruohan has a house and property in Zhending.

Usually people's Yahuan follows the women's car and walks, only Lian Ruohan's Yahuan can take a car alone, which is not only Lian Ruohan's compassion for the next person, but also the embodiment of her strength.

Even Ruohan is not a child of the rivers and lakes, but she also abides by female morality, and let Xia Xiang ride in the same car with her, and she really has something important to talk to Xia Xiang.

Xia Xiang sat opposite Lian Ruohan, only three feet away from Lian Ruohan, the car swayed, the breeze swayed, and the dark fragrance hit, making him inevitably feel uneasy. The sunlight passed through the car window and fell on Lian Ruohan's neck, the skin could be broken by blowing, pink and tender than snow, and warm as jade, and it was a lonely man and widow in the same room, how could it not make people confused?

Xia Xiang is not a saint, and Lian Ruohan is the best in the world, he is afraid that he will lose his dignity in front of Lian Xiaoniang, so he is busy holding his breath and concentrating, and silently recites in his heart: "The whispers in the world are like thunder." The dark room is sad, and the eyes are like lightning......"

"Are you talking, are you ridiculous or decent?" Even Ruohan saw Xia Xiang's restrained appearance, with nowhere to put his hands and feet, his eyes and nose, his nose, his mouth, and his heart, and his mouth and mouth, and there were words in his mouth, so he couldn't help laughing, "Xia Langjun, are you endorsing a book or chanting a scripture?" ”

Xia Xiang's intention in his heart calmed down a little, and he didn't dare to look at Lian Ruohan's smile like a flower, and asked: "What does the little lady have to say, listen to it." ”

"Back to the county, the little girl doesn't dare." Lian Ruohan smiled brightly, "Xia Xianzun already has an official body, so he should be called this official." ”

Xia Xiang straightened his face, stretched out his hand to stroke the beard that had not yet grown, and coughed: "Even the little lady, what do you want the official to serve?" ”

Lian Ruohan smiled "poof", and then said with a straight face: "The county is invited, the little girl has something to ask for, and I hope that the county will be the master of the people." ”

"Speak." Xia Xiang's face was majestic, although it was deliberate, but he really had a bit of official authority.

"Yes." Lian Ruohan lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to her eyes, looking petty and gentle, but she really looked like a weak woman who was eager to get the Qingtian Lord to avenge her, "The county is going to Zhending, the place of life is not familiar, the little woman is quite familiar with Zhending, and she is willing to lead the way for the county, and she is willing to introduce the squire to the county." ”

That's it? Xia Xiang didn't believe that Lian Ruohan not only offered to go all the way with him to Zhending, but also took the same car with him, just for such a trivial matter, he coughed: "Thank you for the kindness of the little lady, the official will bear it." ”

Lian Ruohan gently stroked his forehead: "Such a small matter should not be said in person, but small things are the source of big things...... Presumably the county has heard of the saying that it must be the tiger's den in Longtan? ”

Xia Xiang nodded: "Last time, I heard His Royal Highness King Qing say this. ”

"I don't know if the county is really called Longtan Tiger's Den?"

Xia Xiang shook his head: "Zhending is the land of Longxing, now the country is peaceful, the people are simple, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, how can you say that Longtan is the tiger's den?" ”

Taizu originally started his army in Henan Mansion, and Taizu did not cross the Yellow River in his life. When he arrived in the Taizong Dynasty, Taizong personally conquered the Jin Kingdom, crossed the Yellow River in the north, and advanced all the way to Zhending. The army led by Taizong was on the bank of the Hutuo River in Zhending, and confronted the army of the Jin State for several months, regardless of victory or defeat.

At that time, the pioneer general Cao Wen proposed to Taizong that he could break the Hutuo River embankment and flood the Jin army. It is the cold winter wax moon, once the mouth breaks, there will be countless people who drown and freeze to death. Taizong had already made up his mind, and when he went to the Great Buddha Temple to talk to Master Shanjian, Master Shanjian heard about the plan to flood the Jin Army, muttered for a while, and said something that made Taizong change his mind immediately.

"Since ancient times, the emperor is benevolent in the world, and the emperor is righteous in the world. The Han Dynasty started from the grass, and the ancestor of Gaozu cut the python to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, but it was interrupted by Wang Mang, and finally died in the grass. With the heart of the emperor, a thought of mercy will bring peace to the world, and a thought of killing will cause misery. ”

Taizong retracted his order and redeployed his troops to confront the Jin army head-on. The Jin army forcibly crossed the river, and the army marched into the river, and the river suddenly swelled, and the Jin army drowned countless people, and was immediately defeated. The Xia army took the opportunity to chase and kill, the Jin army was defeated, and the water of the Hutuo River rose three feet, and all three feet were bloody.

In this battle, the vitality of the Jin army was greatly damaged, and the elite were lost.

Since then, Taizong has taken the Great Buddha Temple as the imperial temple, and has come to Zhending dozens of times, and has intentionally determined all of them many times, and has said to people more than once: "Taizu raised troops in Henan Mansion, and I Longxing in Zhending Mansion." ”

Zhending is thus known as the land of dragons.

"When the Hutuo River is not watered, the wind and waves are calm, and the people are raised on both banks." Lian Ruohan straightened up and said seriously, "The tiger's den is hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, if there is no tiger, no one will know." ”

Xia Xiang understood the meaning of Lian Ruohan's words, and he really determined that on the surface, the people were simple and simple, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, but in fact, it was like the seemingly calm Hutuo River, but under the calm on the surface, the undercurrent below was hidden.
