Chapter 17 Zhao Ji who went to work with illness
Zhao Yan's paintings are gone, not only the sexy game beauty painted today is gone, but even the paintings painted a few days ago are gone, there are characters and animals in those paintings, most of them are small bean sprouts and small meat cubes, and there are one or two rain scenes, but now they are gone, to be exact, they were stolen by Cao Song.
Cao Song, who was born in the aristocracy, actually stole things? This matter looks a little incredible, and even Zhao Yan couldn't believe it at the beginning, after all, Cao Song gave him a good impression just now, although he only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, but this is also the duty of a noble child, and it can be seen from just now that Cao Song had a good relationship with Zhao Yan before, so no matter what aspect it is, Cao Song has no motive or reason to steal.
However, when Zhao Yan called the little bean sprouts over and inquired about it, he finally determined that the person who stole his painting was Cao Song, and others may not know about the little bean sprouts, but Cao Song is Cao Ying's cousin, and the little bean sprouts are the subordinates of Cao Fu, and they know Cao Song the ninth brother best.
According to Xiao Bean Sprouts, Cao Song's habit of stealing things is not a secret, and even the entire city of Tokyo knows it, and Cao Song steals things not because of lack of money, the son of the first general of the Great Song Dynasty will be short of money, that is a joke, Cao Song steals things because he likes it, as long as he goes to a place other than his home, whether he knows or doesn't know, he always has to bring something back, which is already known in Tokyo.
Because of Cao Song's problem, Cao Ying's stern uncle didn't know how many rattans he had broken, but unfortunately although Cao Song screamed very miserably every time and promised not to commit it again, he still couldn't help but steal it again in the end, and in the end, Cao Song's father didn't care about him anymore, and he didn't usually go out with him, so as not to be embarrassed.
However, in addition to Cao Song's likes to steal things, he is very normal in other aspects, and he is also very righteous towards his friends, every time Zhao Yan ran out of money, the first thing he thought of was to borrow money from Cao Song, as long as Cao Song had money in his hands, he would definitely lend it to him, and he had never collected debts, and now Zhao Yan still owes Cao Song thousands of yuan that has not been repaid.
"Understood, it turns out that Cao Song is a pathological thief." After listening to what happened to Cao Song, Zhao Yan said to himself, the so-called pathological theft, in fact, is commonly known as kleptocracy, this kind of person steals things not for money, nor does he really need this thing, and even after stealing things, he will give them away or discard them, they just can't suppress their stealing**, it is a typical psychological disorder, in addition to pathological arson, pathological gambling, etc., all belong to the same psychological disorder, and they are collectively referred to as impulse control disorder in psychology.
"It seems that before Cao Song restrains this psychological disorder, I want to hang a sign at the door of the house that says 'Little Meat Ding and Cao Song are not allowed to enter'." Zhao Yan thought of this and muttered to himself.
Although Zhao Yan understands that Cao Song's stealing behavior is a psychological disorder, he has no way to treat it, firstly, he only understands some of the surface of psychology, and secondly, there is no particularly symptomatic drug for this pathological theft, this psychological disorder mainly appears in adolescence, and as he grows older, it may disappear, or it may accompany him for a lifetime, no one can say.
The paintings stolen by Cao Song are not valuable, for Zhao Yan, those are just his own exercises, as long as he wants, he can spend a few days painting again, so if he steals, he steals it, not to mention that Cao Song is also a friend worth making, at least he still owes thousands of dollars to others, and those paintings are regarded as interest owed money.
At the same time, on the bank of the Bianhe River, not far northwest of the palace of Guangyang County, a team of more than a dozen people was moving along the riverbank, riding a tall horse for one person, wearing a thick coat and a hat on his head, under which a slightly immature face was revealed, with a slightly flushed complexion, and it turned out to be a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.
The people behind the young man were also wearing robes, but the rain in the sky was so heavy that the heavy robes could not block the rain, so that they were soaked all over, but even so, they still did not forget their duties, and whenever they passed by the bridge over the Bianhe River, someone would run to the bridge and throw the measuring rope down to measure the depth of the water.
"His Royal Highness King Qiqi, now the water depth of the Bianhe River has passed two zhang, and the river water in some places has overflowed from the river, and some families on both sides of the river have been flooded by the river, and now the water in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is exploding, and it is likely to rush into the Bianhe River, and the embankment of the Bianhe River may be difficult to block such a flood, and I am afraid that most of Kaifeng City will be flooded by then!" A man who had just finished measuring the depth of the water quickly ran up to the young man on horseback and said.
After listening to this young man known as King Ying, his flushed and somewhat abnormal face also showed a worried look, Kaifeng has been raining for a month, although the rain was not strong at the beginning, but the soil of the river embankment was very soft, and it suddenly became a heavy rain in the past few days, which made the river burst up, and if it went on like this, I am afraid the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Ahem~ahem...... let's go forward a little longer, ...... Measure the situation of the river more, and then record it in detail, I will show it to my father at night, and with these, my father can persuade the ministers of the court to organize the people to dredge the river! The young man on the horse coughed violently twice, and then there was an intermittent way.
"King Ying, you injured your arm while surveying the river yesterday, and now the wound is already a little inflamed, and your body is also burning, you must not get wet in the rain anymore, you better go back to your house to rest quickly, it is enough to measure the river with me!" Hearing the young man's violent cough, the person who reported immediately spoke anxiously and persuaded that although the safety of the river was very important, compared to the body of His Royal Highness the King in front of him, it was more important.
"Don't worry, not far ahead is the third brother's Guangyang County Palace, we can walk forward while measuring, and then I'll go to the third brother's mansion to take a rest!" The boy still insisted. His Royal Highness King Ying's name is Zhao Xu, who is Zhao Yan's eldest brother, that is, the later Song Shenzong, compared to other brothers, Zhao Ji has been named a prince, and his title is one level higher than that of the county king, which also represents his identity as the prince of the Great Song Dynasty.
Seeing Zhao Ji so insisted, the people below are not good to say anything, they can only speed up the measurement of the water depth of the river, and whether the embankment on both sides is strong, etc., this Bianhe River is the lifeline of Kaifeng City, if the weather is clear, the cargo ships and grain ships on the river flow endlessly, but with the explosion of the river, coupled with the heavy rain and wind, the river can not sail at all, and there are only rolling turbid waves on the river, and there are no boats at all.
Zhao Ji is Zhao Shu's eldest son, and after Zhao Shu ascended the throne, although he was not officially named the prince, he was actually trained as a prince, and the title was one level higher than Zhao Yan and other princes, but this made Zhao Yan more demanding than other brothers, such as Zhao Yan is just an idle county king, and he can even fight with a group of gentlemen, but Zhao Ji participated in the government early and helped his father deal with some government affairs.
During this time, Kaifeng City rained again and again, and the rivers around the city were also full, and the upper reaches of the Yellow River also rained on a large scale, and if it continued like this, Kaifeng City was likely to be flooded, in this case, Zhao Shu wanted to allocate money to organize the people to dredge the river, and at the same time strengthen the embankment, but this required the consent of Han Qi and several other ministers, so Zhao Ji was sent to record the water level information of several important rivers in Kaifeng City, the most important of which was the Bianhe River under their feet.
Originally, the river was relatively calm a few days ago, so Zhao Ji has been taking a boat to record the situation of the river on the river, but yesterday from the upper reaches of the Bianhe River rushed to a flood peak, the result not only made the entire Bianhe River water burst, and the river surface is also turbid waves rolling, almost overturned the boat that Zhao Ji was sitting on, and even Zhao Ji was injured on the tumbling boat, and his arm was drawn into a palm-length mouth, at that time Zhao Ji felt that the wound was not very deep, so he let people bandage it at will and continue to work, but I didn't expect it to rain yesterday, Today, the wound was red and swollen, and the whole person was also burning, but despite this, he still insisted on completing the measurement of the river, because this was the last section of the river, and Zhao Ji didn't want to give up halfway.
Looking at the turbulent river in front of him through the rain curtain, Zhao Ji was even more worried about the safety of Kaifeng City, and at the same time he felt that the rain seeped in from the gap in the robe, which soaked his whole body, especially the wound on his right arm, which was painful and itchy at the beginning, making people want to dig that piece of meat off, but now he was numb, Zhao Ji felt that his right arm was no longer his own, and it was very difficult to move.
What's worse is that Zhao Ji has been burning since this morning, and now his whole body is drenched in rain, Zhao Ji feels that there is no heat on his body, and even his hands and feet are a little involuntarily began to tremble, and his mind is also confused for a while, and it is dark from time to time in front of him, at the beginning Zhao Ji still feels that he can support it, but now his body is getting colder and colder, and it is dark for a while, and the time of black is getting longer and longer.
"Bah~" Zhao Ji on the horse finally failed to support it, and suddenly fell from the horse into the muddy water on the ground, and the hat on his head also rolled aside, revealing Zhao Ji's face flushed with high fever.
"His Royal Highness!" Until Zhao Ji fell off the horse, the guards and officials who followed him also screamed, and the nearest guard immediately threw off the horse and helped Zhao Ji up, but no matter how he shouted, Zhao Ji did not react, and at the same time, his forehead was also amazingly hot.
"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and send someone to inform the official family and Niangniang, and the rest of us will carry His Royal Highness King Ying to the palace of Guangyang County with me, there should be a royal doctor there, if His Royal Highness King Yingwang has an accident, none of us want to live!" A bearded guard roared angrily, then bent down and picked up Zhao Yan and ran towards Zhao Yan's mansion.
