Under the herd pastor, in addition to the overview of the Song Dynasty Ma Zheng, near the inner garden of the palace, there is a courtyard dedicated to serving those rare birds and beasts, because during the Northern Song Dynasty, South Asia and other places paid tribute to many elephants, and Emperor Huizong even specially let people build an elephant breeding house to serve these elephants from afar.

Wang Pingzhong, as the deputy envoy of the herd from the inner chamberlain, was specifically responsible for these rare birds and beasts for Emperor Huizong.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, the elephants who came to pay tribute have become sluggish one by one, unable to stand steadily, and even too lazy to eat.

Every year, when Emperor Huizong sacrifices to the heavens and worships the Taoist monarch, this elephant is an indispensable and important member of the sacrificial ceremonial guard.

Elephants, with the meaning of peace and auspiciousness in the world, today's officials are even more self-proclaimed as the head of the Taoist monarch, with benevolent governance of the world, but also to this kind of profound meaning of the animal attaches great importance.

When he learned that the elephants in the elephant breeding house were actually sick, the Emperor Huizong was a little panicked at that time, and arranged for people to invite dozens of the most well-known veterinarians in Bianliang City, but he didn't expect that these veterinarians were all treating some domestic poultry such as chickens and dogs, and those who were stronger could also cure some diseases such as pigs and cattle.

But this elephant from the outside domain, usually see very few opportunities, how can there be a cure for elephant diseases, even if there are some means of treatment, in the face of this behemoth, everyone is also cautious. It's okay to be cured, but once he is cured, it will offend the current official family.

One by one, in order to protect themselves, they directly chose to retreat on the grounds that they were not familiar with the habits of elephants.

And the father-in-law Yan, who has always been jealous of Qian Heng, after learning the news, said through his godfather Li Yan that there is a talent in Shouzhang County, Jingxi Road, Beijing, who is a veterinarian and is quite famous in the local area, and he is admired for medical treatment for hundreds of miles.

Hearing this, the official family was overjoyed, and directly issued a will, Xuan Qian Heng immediately went to Beijing to see the elephant's illness.

What's worse is that Qian Heng himself has not had much contact with elephants, let alone how to treat elephants.

This elephant has rough skin and thick flesh, and rarely gets sick, and the chance of getting sick is very small.

If according to what Wang Pingzhong said, he was just mentally ill and had no appetite, Qian Heng could guess a few points.

Thinking of this, Qian Heng couldn't help but ask, "Princess, brother wants to ask, when did this elephant show this symptom?" ”

Wang Pingzhong had a sad face, "Since the Lantern Festival, this situation has begun, but it has become more and more serious recently, and even a few of them are difficult to stand!" ”

After listening to Wang Pingzhong's description, Qian Heng felt a little more down-to-earth. If this elephant had any emergency, Qian Heng was not very sure.

"In that case, then the prince can rest assured, and when I make a little preparation, I will return to Beijing with my father-in-law!"

Seeing that Qian Heng agreed, Wang Pingzhong hurriedly thanked, "Brother Hengyuan is really benevolent and righteous, when you arrive in Bianliang City, if it is useful to our family, just ask for it!" ”

Wang Pingzhong was not polite to Qian Heng this time, in Wang Pingzhong's opinion, the reason why Qian Heng would let the officials know was completely because of the secret evil of Father-in-law Yan.

Qian Heng didn't dare to resist the order and not go to the capital, but with Qian Heng's mentor Huang Shang, and even Zhang Shuye and others to help him deal with it, he could always do it if he delayed it for a year and a half.

Not to mention far away, just talking about the township test after the autumn is a reason why even today's officials can't ignore it.

Today's officials are well-known for their benevolence and righteousness, and they will never be infamous for ruining the opportunity to take the examination for scholars.

But if Qian Heng delayed for half a year on the grounds of preparing for the township test, by that time, the elephants that Wang Pingzhong was in charge of would probably have died of illness in the elephant breeding center. At that time, it would only be him Wang Pingzhong who was convicted, but he would not be implicated in the slightest with Qian Heng.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Pingzhong is so grateful for Qian Heng's righteousness.

While the two were talking, Qian Youbao came to report that Mr. Yanshan was back.

Qian Heng confessed that he was going to meet Huang Shang, Wang Pingzhong faced Huang Shang, and he didn't dare to hold it up, so he and Qian Heng together, except for the tea hall, just walked to the gate of the mansion and greeted Huang Shang.

Huang Shang was supported by the concubine, his steps were steady, except for a trace of fatigue on his face, his spirit was good.

Huang Shang is an old man who is nearly eighty years old, and he can have this mental state because he is proficient in the way of health preservation, and he has kung fu in his body, so he can be so energetic.

Seeing Wang Pingzhong, Huang Sheng didn't feel surprised, just smiled and bowed, "It's still Deputy Wang's deputy who is one step old!" ”

Wang Pingzhong hurriedly bowed down to salute, "The little one doesn't dare, I've seen Mr. Yanshan!" ”

Huang Sheng waved his hand, "You don't have to be so polite to me, I know what you're here for!" ”

At this time, Huang Shang's face was not very good-looking, his most proud disciple was calculated, and it was strange that Huang Sheng could feel comfortable in his heart.

Where did Wang Pingzhong dare to deal with Huang Shang, he could only take a few steps back.

Qian Heng said with a smile, "The teacher doesn't want to embarrass the prince, he is also forced to do so, and the student has already promised to follow him into Beijing to meet the official family as soon as possible!" ”

"You've already promised? Hengyuan~"

Huang Shang obviously didn't expect Qian Heng to be so reckless, but this is not the place to speak, he just sighed and said, "Okay, you come with me, I have something to say!" ”

Wang Pingzhong bowed slightly with great interest, "The little one won't disturb Mr. Yanshan and his disciples!" ”

Wang Pingzhong was just about to leave, Qian Heng greeted Qian You, who was following Huang Shang, "Steward Qian, you go and arrange a banquet first, entertain Lord Wang well, and prepare another bedroom, I will have a night talk with Lord Wang tonight!" ”

As soon as Qian Heng said this, Wang Pingzhong didn't refuse again, knowing that there must be many things to discuss in detail, so he greeted Huang Sheng and Qian Heng and followed Qian You to leave.

Huang Sheng waved away his little concubine, and with the support of Qian Heng, he returned to the teahouse.

As soon as he sat down, Huang Sheng sighed, "Hengyuan, you are confused, why are you in a hurry to agree to this kind of thing?" Even if I'm not there, I have to go to Qingqing first, ask about the situation, and then make plans! ”

Huang Shang's care for Qian Heng is indiscriminate.

Qian Heng thanked him with a smile before he said, "Teacher, after all, it is the will of the official family, if the student does not agree, wouldn't it be disrespectful to resist the will?" Besides, students are already very sure of the township test after the autumn, and a trip to Bianliang City is only more than a month to go back and forth, and the time is still very generous! ”

Huang Sheng stared at Qian Heng for a long time before revealing a wry smile, "Do you think it's so easy to enter the capital?" You are on Shouzhang's side, then Gonggong Yan and the Feng family may not be able to target you, if you go to the capital, they will suffer a big loss at your hands, how can they easily let go of this opportunity? ”

Regarding this matter, Qian Heng also carefully considered that whether it was the Feng family or Father-in-law Yan, no matter the status or status, it was not something that he could compete with now. But Qian Heng is not a master who likes to be at the mercy of people, and this time there is the will of the official family, Qian Heng also wants to know what the emperor with the highest artistic attainments in history looks like.
