Chapter 6: Who Are You?

Shen Tuchen received a letter from his father to him, asking him to go to Xinye County to serve as the companion of San Lang Jun Wang An, the marquis of Xindu, and to take care of San Lang Jun's body, plus his father hinted in the letter that this matter may affect the future of the Li family. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he arranged everything in Wanxian as quickly as possible, and hurried to Xinye County, did not see his father, first came to meet this San Lang Jun, but was disappointed, San Lang Jun was just like those gentlemen he had treated, his face was pale, and his pace was unsteady, he was disgusted, and talked patiently for a while, citing a few allusions, but the other party did not react, Shen Tuchen decided that Wang An was a prisoner of wine bags and rice bags, and diagnosed the pulse, which was indeed the case, and he left to leave. Didn't give each other any face. The prince and the prince don't give face, but give it back to his son?

When he saw his father, Shen Tuchen complained about why he asked him to be a companion to a gentleman. After he finished speaking, Shen Tu'an said: "San Langjun was born with a heart loss disease, and he was unconscious, and he was frightened until half a month ago, and he suddenly woke up. You can understand what he says now, it is the result of Saburo-kun's hard work. As a father, he watched him go from slurring words to being able to say a sentence completely, didn't you see the appearance of the Marquis of Xindu and his wife at that time, and he cried with joy. With this diagnosis and treatment, the Li family will be able to save three generations of struggle. Shen Tuan took out a silk book from his bosom and slapped it on the desk.

"What is this?"

"This is a letter of recommendation written by the Marquis of Xindu to Liu Xin, the Taishou of Zhuo County, Liu Zijun, asking Liu Mingfu to accept your Uncle Li as an apprentice, thinking that in the future." According to the Han law, businessmen are lowly, and businessmen need three generations of people who do not do business to become Qi people, that is, commoners, and then they are eligible to be recommended for office. Because the threshold for businessmen to enter the government is too high, after all, there are a few people like Sang Hongyang, so many big businessmen spend their money on horse racing, dog fighting, horns and bows, often spend a lot of money, or spend a lot of money to build a luxurious courtyard, those Confucian scholars only have envy and jealousy, so they look down on businessmen even more, and oppose businessmen as officials.

"The reason why the Father called you here is because there is an opportunity at hand. Wang An will definitely become an official in the future, and you will be his companion, which will be of great benefit to you in the future, as evidenced by the Lou Hu Junqing in Chang'an. At that time, the building nurse passed through the Wang family and entered the office from a doctor. You can do the same. ”

"Lou Junqing is now dismissed from office and is a citizen."

"As long as the Wang family does not fall, Lou Junqing can resurrect from the ashes."

"But the child doesn't want to be an official."

"The world's medical books collected by the imperial court are all kept in the Tianlu Pavilion, and only people from the Imperial Doctor's Department can enter. Do you want to read a lot of books and improve your medical skills? ”

"The child will go to Wang An tomorrow to be a companion."

"There is one more thing to tell you, there is news that Your Majesty is looking for a doctor who can cure incurable diseases and send him to Chang'an, your father and I have cured San Langjun's illness, and you will definitely be recruited into the palace, and you also need to find a backer to save your life. And the only one who keeps our father and son is the new capital marquis. ”

On Wang An's side, Erya was also complaining: "This Shen Tuchen is too unruly, he doesn't give Lang Jun a good face when he meets, and he has a straight face, as if he is ...... It's as if people owe him money. ”

"You can't blame Shen Tuchen, my illness is not good after all, and it's not easy to explain it in the letter. Dr. Shen Tu probably thought that Shen Tuchen would go to see him first, but he didn't expect Shen Tuchen to come to see me first, and when he saw me like this, he thought that he was another person who had been hollowed out by wine, and it was right not to give me a good face. If he sees me and thinks he's met someone with good intentions, I'm going to drive him away. Otherwise, you have to be careful. And "Wang An looked at Erya, "I have already told Uncle Tian, and Uncle Tian agreed that Tian Dalang would go to Wangjiazhuang with me." When you are ready, I will ask my mother to make decisions for you and marry you to him. From today on, you will be in charge of the outer house, and learn more from the eldest girl how to take care of the house. ”

Early the next morning, Shen Tuchen came to see Wang An, apologized for his rudeness yesterday, and then gave Wang An a serious pulse, and then told Wang An that due to his previous irregular life, Wang An's spleen and stomach were relatively weak, and he could only slowly transition to the nobleman's three meals a day by eating less and eating more often. That's right, it's the nobles, at this time the commoners had two meals a day, and the emperor had four meals a day.

Wang An is also very happy that having a family doctor by his side at any time gives him a much better chance of survival. At this time, Tian Li came to report with ten guards. These ten guards can ride horses, shoot arrows, fight in close combat, and track, all of them survived the battle with the Huns and the two Qiang, which can be described as elite. Although the number of people is small, they can be used as ten, not a "parallel import" like Tian Dalang, as if he felt Wang An's contemptuous gaze, Tian Dalang shouted: "I can also fight, I can also fight." ”

The things have been packed up, the people are all ready, for his own future, although now that the autumn harvest is over, there is nothing to do in the Zhuangzi, Wang An still decided to set off the next day.

As a result, the scene of the next day's departure was like a spring outing for primary school students in Wang An's opinion, noisy, and in order to take care of those little ones, they brought their mothers with them. Wang An discussed with Tian Li, Wang An took the escort to take the carriage first, and Tian Li sent someone to escort the ox cart over.

There is an official road from the Xindu Hou Mansion through Xinye County to the Yushui River, Wang An and they are traveling along the official road. Except for Wang An, who was sitting in the carriage, the other men were all riding horses, especially Tian Dalang, who rode his foal and ran back and forth, shouting and screaming. Shen Tuchen taught him a lesson several times, but still like this, Wang An smiled and said to Erya: "He wants to attract your attention, you go and teach him a lesson." "Everyone felt that their ears were clean.

The more you go to the county seat, there are more and more people, and you know that today is the market day, the county town does not allow horse-drawn carriages and ox carts, Wang An and his party can only go around the county seat for half a circle, and then return to the official road, someone knocked on the roof of the car, and Wei Xuan, the head of the guard appointed by Wang An, came to say: "Zhuangzi sent someone to meet us." ”

Wang An glanced at Tian Dalang, Tian Dalang reluctantly jumped off the horse, took off the stool from the top of the carriage, and put it in front of the carriage, and Wang An walked off the carriage along the stool. Sure enough, there was an ox cart parked at the fork in the road ahead, and a lantern with the words "New Capital Marquis Mansion" was hung on the cart. There was a scholar standing in front of the ox cart, and when he saw Wang An getting off the carriage, he took a few steps and said: "In Xia Du Shi, on the order of Mr. Cui, I am here to greet San Langjun." ”

Wang An returned the salute, suddenly raised his head and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The scholar replied: "In Xia Du Shi, on the order of Mr. Cui, I came to greet San Langjun. ”
