Chapter 43: The East Wind (1)

Luling Ouyang Xiu, where is he today?!

I'm in ?!!

Ouyang Xiu only felt a rush of blood rising from his heart, rushing straight to Parkway!

Little by little, the memories came flooding back.

In the third year of Qingli (1043), he was still young and vigorous, and at that time, he had just served as the right Zhengyan and the Zhizhi Commando.

It was also that year that Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Fu Bi and others began to implement the "Qingli New Deal", and Ouyang Xiu participated in the reform with a heart of concern for the country and the people, and became a reformist cadre, putting forward the idea of reforming the rule of officials, the military, and the tribute law. However, under the obstruction of the old school, the New Deal failed after only one year.

In the fifth year of Qingli, Fan, Han, and Fu were demoted one after another, and Ouyang Xiu directly wrote to defend them, but because of this, he was demoted to Chuzhou (now Chuzhou, Anhui) Taishou, even if he was demoted, he did not become as sleek as he is now......

How high-spirited was he at the beginning?! What a passion for serving the country?!

But in the end, the Qingli New Deal failed, and the reason for the failure was not the obstruction of the old school, but the ancestral family law of the official family - the way of balance. On the one hand, they demand prosperity and strength, but on the other hand, they appoint people who oppose the new law and seek the so-called balance......

Thinking of the memories of the past, Ouyang Xiu smiled wistfully: "Duke Fan has passed away, and Ouyang Xiu of Luling is nowhere to be found." ”

Xin Zhen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but saw Su Dongpo shaking his head at him.

"Time will destroy everything, but I want to make those precious things immortal!" Xin Zhen muttered silently in the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, in the distance, dust and smoke rose up, as if a large army was passing by.

A few people got up and looked in the direction of the dust and smoke, only to see a dense black shadow appear, sealing the entrance to the football field.

Subsequently, several carriages appeared in front of everyone, and the top of the carriage had the logo of the Xin family.

Ouyang Xiu twisted his beard, his face was heavy: "My Great Song Dynasty is already short of horses, so that there is no way to fight against the Liao State, and I am even more unable to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyan, but this wealthy family, the prince and grandson, but every family is on horseback, and even the oil wall car uses horses instead of donkeys......"

It's hard, it's hard, it's redundant, it's redundant. For thousands of years, even in later generations, it has remained the same.

Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road, which is almost like this, right?!

Xin Xi thought silently.

On the side, Su Shi said: "Otherwise, in the entire Great Song Dynasty, there are only tens of thousands of horses, and sometimes there are many inferior horses, which are unbearable for the battle array. ”

The Great Song Dynasty army was organized into four levels: chamber, army, battalion, and command. The chamber has jurisdiction over ten armies, five battalions under military jurisdiction, and five capitals under the jurisdiction of battalions. A hundred people each. One army was two thousand five hundred men.

Xin Xi was stunned for a while, the Song Dynasty was very short of horses because of the loss of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyan, and he knew this.

It's just that he never thought that the horses of the entire Great Song Dynasty couldn't even be armed with a cavalry of 2,500 people......

Ouyang Xiu could only sigh helplessly: "I hate the emperor Shi Jingjiao there......"

Xin Zhen smiled lightly: "Shi Jingjiao is just trying to protect himself, and if someone else is in his position, he may not do that!" ”

For self-preservation?!

Ouyang Xiu stared blankly ahead, his eyes becoming hollow.

At this moment, from a distance, several people saw the forbidden army responsible for maintaining order on the football field walking over.

I saw that the stone pipe battalion saluted the carriage, and then let it go with a smile on his face, and at the same time, let his forbidden army quickly rush into the audience, and in the noise on the side, it was quite unreasonable to clear a road for the carriage to drive.

As the forbidden army dispersed, the carriage drove straight towards the referee's bench along the road that had just been cleared.

Many pedestrians on the side of the road looked at the passing carriage with dissatisfaction, but they dared not speak angrily.

Su Shi sighed slightly: "Eleven Lang, these people in your family are causing the people to be angry!" Don't you know that in the former dynasty, Taizong, the people were the water kings and the boats? ”

Xin Xi smiled faintly: "Everyone understands the truth, but not everyone can do it." ”

This sentence was like thunder again, resounding in Ouyang Xiu's mind......

After saying this, Xin Yang confessed to Su Shi and the others: "That Xin Yang must have framed me, otherwise the clan elders would not have come here." I lost my company first! ”

Su Shi and the others nodded, other people's family affairs, they didn't come forward after all, so they didn't keep up.

Xin Xi turned around and walked towards the carriage, when the carriage appeared about ten meters in front of him, Xin Zhen's body slowly straightened, his hands were raised, and he saluted empty hands with ancient etiquette: "Three rooms and eleven Xin Xi, I have seen all the clan elders!" Met the patriarch! ”

Xin Baiwu laughed: "Eleven Lang, why do you only have the clan elder and the patriarch in your eyes, and not your uncle and brother?!" ”

Xin Yi was about to speak, but Xin Yang lost no time in stepping forward, and said loudly: "This kid who has forgotten his ancestors naturally has no uncle or brother in his eyes, otherwise, how could he want to kill me?!" ”

"Clan elders, patriarchs, fathers, second uncles, Guangdao, please expel Xin Xi from the family!" Xin Yang raised his head and looked at Xin Yang viciously.

Xin Zhen smiled faintly, without the slightest nervousness on his face, and made a gesture to bend down, making a feint to pick up stones.

Seeing this scene, Xin Yang subconsciously took a step back, and when he came to his senses, Xin Yang couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and immediately shouted angrily: "Look, Xin Yang, a guy who doesn't know etiquette and righteousness, has not had the slightest remorse until now, and Guangdao will ask again and expel Xin Yang from the family!! ”

At this moment, the surrounding crowd remembered the noise and began to talk to each other.

"Did this kid really frame Eleven Lang?"

"Heh, this kind of filthy and splashy skin, it's damned!"

"Look, I'm laughing to death, Eleven Lang almost scared him into running away when he bent over!"

The sound of chirping is endless, as if thousands of flies are flying around.

Xin Yang's face was full of embarrassment, his heart was angry, and he yelled hysterically: "Shut up for me!" This is an internal matter of the Xin family. Who dares to interject again......"

Saying this, Xin Yang raised his eyes and looked around, his eyes full of threat.

Xin Ti's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand and slapped Xin Yang.

"Smack!" A sound sounded, Xin Yang covered his face and stared at Xin Tier.

Xin Tier looked at Xin Yang with a smile.

At this moment, Xin Baiwu shouted in a low voice: "Light Dao, retreat!" ”

Xin Yang suddenly woke up and quickly retreated.

Xin Yi shook his head, looked straight at Xin Xi, and asked, "Eleven Lang, Guangdao said that you want him to survive or not to die?" Not only did he beat him, but he also instructed others to beat him?! ”

Xin Zhen smiled: "Nonsense! It is clear that Xin Yang is the first to beat people indiscriminately! ”

"That's it, it's that blistering boy who is arrogant, and Eleven Lang is just maintaining order!" The person who had been arranged in advance shouted.

Immediately afterwards, those ignorant audiences also looked upset and brave.

Xin Xi smiled faintly and bowed around: "Thank you for your help!" ”

Then look back. looked at the Xin family and the others: "Patriarch, it's not that I embarrass Xin Yang, but that Xin Yang embarrasses me, he first said that my family's title deed is in his hands, and then said that he wants me to live and not die, and finally said that he wants to be my old man......"

Xin Yi turned his head abruptly and glared at Xin Yang: "But as Eleven Lang said?" ”

Xin Yang shrunk his neck slightly, and said inwardly: "No, this is Xin Yang quibbling!" ”

As soon as Xin Yang spoke, the surrounding audience made a fuss again: "I really have never seen such a shameless person!" ”

"Eleven Lang should have killed him at that time!"

People are terrible, and they are afraid of their hearts!

In the dense accusation, Xin Yang's face turned a little pale, and he only felt a buzzing in his ears.

Scared to the extreme, his heart was empty to the extreme, Xin Yang suddenly went crazy: "A group of untouchables, my Xin family's affairs, you dare to intervene?!" ”

Xin Baiwu's face was full of disappointment, and after signaling others to pull Xin Yang away, he immediately changed the topic: "Even if it is not Eleven Lang's fault, but the ancestral hall has a conclusion, why didn't Eleven Lang come?!" Not only did you not go to the ancestral hall, but you also dared to threaten that where you are, where is the ancestral hall?! ”

Xin Yang smiled, this Xin Yang can really die.

"The kid didn't say this, what the kid said at the time was to delay it for an hour, and I'll go over!"

Seeing Xin Xiyun's light and breezy appearance, Xin Baiwu knew that Xin Xi did not tell a lie.

Son! You dare to lie to the old man!

Xin Baiwu looked at Xin Yang who was held by the other two sons viciously, if it weren't for being in front of the public at the moment, he really wanted to kill this son.

"The conclusion of the ancestral hall is a major event to tell the ancestors and show the descendants. You say delay, delay?! Xin Baiwu was in a hurry, and immediately began to quibble.

Xin Xi was still unmoved: "Xin Zhen doesn't want to be like this, but Ouyang Gong and the others came to find the boy to buy soap today, and the boy can't directly save the face of the prince!" ”

"Ouyang Gong? What kind of character is that, coming to find you a?! Xin Yang's face was full of hatred.

At this moment, in the distance, Xiang'er walked over with a group of people, and the first one was the highest-ranking one in this group of people - Bachelor of Hanlin, Scholar of the Senior Administration Palace, and Governor Wang Si!

One of the four phases of the dynasty!

"Eleven Lang, the old man came early, when will the rest of the soap ...... Auction? Wang Si had a fake smile on his face.

Xin Yang's face was full of horror, Wang Xianggong?!

The surrounding peddlers and pawns, as well as the members of the Xin family, including the patriarch Xin Ti, all bowed down slightly and saluted: "I've seen the prince!" ”

Wang Si smiled and hugged his hand in return.

Xin Zhen was slightly surprised, why did this big traitor come over in person?!

Now is not the time to study these, after Xin Zhen saluted, he laughed: "The prince waits for a while, the kid has some family affairs, and he will auction it immediately after it is dealt with." ”

Wang Si's eyes rolled slightly, and he quickly figured out Xin Xi's intentions, and when he first heard the house slave say that a piece of soap was twenty taels of silver, he was guessing Xin Xi's intentions.

It was also because he guessed that Xin Xi might have a deep meaning, so he deliberately went to it himself.

It wasn't until now that he fully understood that Xin Zhen was taking advantage of the situation, otherwise, when would he have no family affairs, but he was entangled in family affairs when he was selling soap?!

Wang Si turned a few times in his mind, had a plan in his heart, and laughed: "I heard that Shiyi Lang is lonely, Wang will be a witness and never let Shi Lang be bullied!" ”

Xin Zhen's heart was shocked, it was over, and this traitor was entangled like kraft candy.

"Thank you, Maharaja!" Xin Zhen was speechless, thinking that in the future, I am afraid that I will have a lot of trouble, but from another angle, it is not a good thing, anyway, this is also a father-in-law!

Wang Si smiled slightly, he likes smart people very much, especially after thinking about the layout of Xin Xi before and after, he even felt that pulling Xin Xi into his boat would have unexpected benefits!

But at this moment, Ouyang Xiu walked slowly in the distance and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Brother Yuyu, Eleven Lang is my protΓ©gΓ© disciple, you can't rob the old man of what this teacher should do!" ”

Wang Si turned his head, stunned, and regained his smile in just a moment: "Ouyang Gong is here too?" ”

"Exactly! However, Eleven Lang is my protΓ©gΓ©, and he is ahead of the prince! Hahaha! Ouyang Xiu smiled, quite high-spirited.

Wang Si smiled: "Don't dare, to be a protΓ©gΓ© of Ouyang Gong, Eleven Lang is a good blessing!" ”

The people around him were shocked, and after saluting Ouyang in a daze, the shock still couldn't be relieved.

Especially the people of the Xin family, they were shocked inexplicably, when did this Xin Yi become Ouyang Xianggong's protΓ©gΓ©? !

As for Xin Yang, the whole person has fallen into a state of stupidity......
