Chapter 2: Friends from afar
"Prepare your bags, you and I look like we're going to the border." Di Qing closed the secret report on the table, and said a word to Yun Zheng and planned to go down to the wooden house to make some necessary preparations.
"Don't go, I told them a few years ago that I was going to Qinzhou, they didn't allow me to go, if I went at that time, I could slowly make arrangements, maybe I could plot the land of Hehuang, and now people are ready to fight, so they want to send me over, who can fight this kind of uncertain battle?" I should win it, I'm unlucky if I lose, don't go, I'm sick! ”
Di Qing smiled: "If you and I don't go, who will?" If we can't win, who will? Don't lose your temper, don't you say that we don't fight for a certain person, we fight for those people, in that case, what else do you can't figure out? Hurry up and prepare, the family must be settled before you can go out to fight with confidence. ”
Di Qing was very excited as long as he heard that there was a battle to fight, and he flew down the wall as soon as he pressed his hand on the floor of the wooden house, without the slightest sense of anger.
Yun Zheng took his daughter down the wooden house, the child was already sleeping to death, but a little hand grabbed one of her father's ears and did not let go, this child has this problem, she likes to put her hand on her mother's chest when she sleeps with her mother, and likes to scratch her ears when she sleeps with her father.
In the past, Miss Yun slept by herself, and was frightened by the spring thunder in the spring, and since then she likes to run to her father's bed, refusing to sleep without holding something in her hand, and can't leave.
The Yun family is quiet, everyone in the family went to Zhuangzi to relieve the disaster, this year the Yun family is not the only one who guards the Yellow River without water, the bank of the Yellow River is too high. In addition, this year's water level is very low, and the overturned car is not within reach at all, as for the orange tree, it is even more untoppable, and there is a whimsical person who wants to use the "thirsty black" to absorb water, these are naturally not top things, the fields are higher than the water surface, if the "thirsty black" can absorb water, there must be ghosts and gods to help, the cylinder car in Shuzhong has been built everywhere, Yun Zheng can't figure out why these people don't use the "cylinder car"? In later generations, the carts on the banks of the Yellow River are said to be densely packed like forests.
The emperor began to issue an edict again, and God did not give a drop of rain after the edict was issued. A temple in the city of Tokyo. Taoist temples, nunnery, or the bells in the temple of the sister-in-law ring endlessly.
Wang Anshi said that man will conquer the sky, instead of asking the emperor for help. It's better to do it yourself.
For Wang Anshi's words, Yun Zheng raised his hands and feet in approval. But what this guy did later made Yun Zheng's jaw fall to the ground. This guy actually volunteered to pick up a bucket and come outside the city to irrigate the fields from the Yellow River, and I don't know whose fields it is......
The 205 practice actually attracted those who sold their reputations in Tokyo to rush to lead their families to fetch water, and the banks of the Yellow River were overcrowded for a while.
I don't know how much land Wang Anshi watered, it is estimated that it will not be too much. But there are a lot of people involved, this is the capital, this guy actually went on a concerto, hoping that the emperor and the queen can be an example for the people of the world, personally go to the embankment to carry water, and say that as long as the hearts of the people are moved together, it can be seen that this guy is not lightly poisoned by the "foolish man moving mountains".
It is estimated that the emperor is really helpless, so he took his eldest wife and three younger wives to the river embankment to fetch water, so that everyone can see how beautiful their wives are.
The emperor showed his wife like this, and none of the old guys who were extremely disciplined on weekdays raised any objections, but knelt on the embankment of the Yellow River and shouted "Long live!" ”
"Husband, didn't you see that Your Majesty is really carrying water, and the queen is also carrying water, but the lady lady picks the most, as for other girls, their buckets are only the size of bowls!"
Lu Qingqing was wearing a cyan linen dress, with a piece of linen wrapped around his head, which was the same as the dress of the mothers-in-law and aunts in the countryside, and Ge Qiuyan was also dressed like this, I heard that this is the most fashionable dress in Tokyo, as long as it is the women of good families, even the ladies in the palace no longer wear silk and satin, and all of them wear coarse cloth clothes, as for silk and satin, it has been reduced to the work clothes of prostitutes.
"You and Qiu Yan, the two big-bellied women, won't be also made to carry water by Wang Anshi, right? If that's the case, I'll carry a copper hammer to Wang Anshi to settle accounts, even if I'm stupid, the emperor has become brainless, and I even have my big-bellied wife to carry water. ”
There was a small stain on Lu Qingqing's face, which seemed to be stained with dust, Yun Zheng took out a handkerchief to help wipe it off, and pouted.
"Husband, don't you dare to say that, Wang Anshi stood on the embankment and dispatched people, and ordinary people in all directions did not dare to approach! The officials and the family all listened to his dispatch. ”
"That's natural, your husband and I stayed away from him when we went to court, for fear that lice would crawl over, and it would be bad......"
“……”
"Have you finished watering our land?"
"No, just water a little bit, husband, you don't know, a bucket of water can only be poured a little bit of water, and the ground will be dry before the second bucket is poured, and our family's labor will not be successful."
"Yun Er is making a zuò cylinder car, also known as a waterwheel, it should have been completed, you can look at it tomorrow and install it, I heard the day before yesterday that they have installed the base on the riverbed, and the waterwheel should be installed tomorrow, and our wheat will always have water to water."
Yun Zheng shook his daughter's hammock, this child, like himself, likes some strange things.
"Husband, no, the cylinder cars in Shuzhong are generally erected on the stream, and the water surface of the Yellow River is too low for the cylinder cars to reach."
Yun Zheng sighed and looked at Lu Qingqing and said: "You still don't want to see Wang Anshi in the future, be careful of contracting stupidity, he also said the same thing when I brought it up in the court, and said that this is a kit kat lewd skill, I don't bother to argue with him, but I will make it clear to you, lest people say that the Yun family married a stupid wife." ‘
Lu Qingqing patted her husband angrily and said, "The cylinder car in Shuzhong is too small!" ”
Yun Zheng irritably pushed his wife aside and said angrily: "Say you're stupid, you're really stupid, you know it's too small, you can't make a big one?" The height of the waterwheel is related to the diameter of the waterwheel wheel, the river bank is three zhang higher than the water surface, we make a waterwheel wheel with a diameter of more than three zhang, isn't it over? Shuzhong drives the waterwheel is a small stream, of course, it can only make a small one, here is the Yellow River, how big a waterwheel can't be driven by the turbulent water? ”
Ge Qiuyan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Lu Qingqing's green face and didn't know what to say, and was chased away by Lu Qingqing with a feather duster.
"Husband, do you look at this Wang Anshi very unpleasantly? If you do this, you will offend him, and now is the time for people to be proud, and once our waterwheel is installed, he will become the laughing stock of the whole world. ”
It doesn't matter if she is scolded by her husband for being a stupid mother-in-law, Lu Qingqing cares more about the political risks in the middle.
"Wang Anshi's favorite thing to do is to coerce the public and then borrow the power of the public for his own use, and then use the name of the public to ask for power from the state, this drought is very strict, but as long as the way and method are appropriate, the loss will be reduced to a bearable range, with Wang Anshi's wisdom can not imagine that there are countless ways to use heaven and earth, he chose the most stupid, the most manpower used in a way, do you know why? is accumulating popularity for him, once there is a guy in the Great Song Dynasty who "gathers the world's expectations for thirty years", this guy will be able to call the wind and rain in the court, and an old fox like Pang Ji is not his opponent.
I don't believe you look at it, Wang Anshi's actions in the past few days must have made Pang Ji and Han Qi very dissatisfied, as long as our waterwheel is erected and can draw water up the riverbank, someone will naturally clean him up, since he said in the court that KitKat and lewd skills are not elegant, he must be prepared to be counterattacked by me, if I don't fight back, I will be looked down upon! ”
Lu Qingqing saw that her husband had already thought through the reasoning, thought for a while and patted the table and said: "Husband, if you think this is feasible, the concubine will invite all the ladies in the capital to come to the river tomorrow to watch, he Wang Anshi dares to underestimate the husband, and the concubine dares to make him the biggest joke in Tokyo City!" ”
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "That's fine, I guess I'm going to go out soon, it's good for Mrs. Yun to be prestigious, by the way, don't forget to give Yun Er and Su Shi their reputation, maybe Yun Er's shadow supplement official can be promoted by one liter." ”
"That's nature!" Lu Qingqing's expression at this moment was like that of a great general.
Yun Zheng is looking forward to Lu Qingqing and Yun Er's performance tomorrow, but he can't go, once he goes, he will form a mortal enemy, thinking about Wang Anshi's monstrous power in the future, things still can't be done.
In the afternoon, Lao Liao said that someone came to visit, and he was still an old friend, but the person who came looked a little miserable.
Yun Zheng almost couldn't believe his eyes, the gorgeously dressed and bejeweled person in front of him turned out to be the Khmer monk Yesu, not only he came, but there were also four guys who looked little different from monkeys, sitting on the Yun family's precious sandalwood chair, twisting his body as if his whole body was crawling with lice.
Yun Zheng opened his mouth and grabbed Ye Suo's hands and said, "The master has come from thousands of miles away, can he still be smooth along the way?" ”
Ye Su opened his big mouth and said with a mouthful of white teeth and a smile: "The monk knows that you are not a person who does not recognize old friends, sure enough!" ”
Yun Zheng said with a smile: "When I was intertwined, I said that the door of the Yun family will always be open for you, as long as you want, you can come at any time, no matter what trouble you encounter in the capital, you can come to me." ”
Lao Liao saw that the Hou Ye and these savages seemed to be very familiar, so he hurriedly ordered the people to prepare food, and personally made tea and brought it up, and when he turned around, he saw the monkey and the Han Niu squatting on the edge of the leather bag brought by the savage, rummaging and picking up, which was very rude.
The monkey pulled out a thick piece of ivory and shouted at Nosuo, "Master Nosuo, don't you have some crocodile teeth with you?" Someone snatched that crocodile tooth chain you made for me before. (To be continued......)
