The county commander Zhu shouted a sentence that shocked the people in the courtyard, and for a while he knelt and cried and cried, Zhu Wen walked to Fang Cai early in the morning, and was still as imposing as a rainbow and was now stupid in front of Cao Hong, and ordered the officials to be locked up.

Shen Kuo looked at the people who knelt on the ground one after another, stomped his feet and smiled bitterly, and was just about to step forward to hold Zhu Wenqing and talk about his chin, when he saw a white woman wearing a lotus silk shirt saluting in front of him, and said: "My lord, forgive me, this is a person from the village, I know a few medical skills, and I will pick it up for my lord." ”

As he spoke, he pulled a trembling old man, but the old man just trembled, and said, "This is the stars in the sky, how dare the old man?" ”

The woman kicked the old man quickly and whispered, "Don't hurry up, wait for your nephew to be arrested!" ”

Doctor Tu was frightened by these words and trembled even more, but finally got the courage to step forward, Shen Kuo only felt a pain in his jaw, and a crisp bone sound, Zhu Wenqing over there saw it and shouted loudly: "That old man, what are you doing?" The frightened doctor collapsed on the ground.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." Shen Kuo touched his chin, waved his hand and said, and then saw that the woman had quietly retreated into the crowd.

Looking at a few villagers who were surrounded by officers and soldiers with dead faces, Shen Kuo hurriedly ordered them to be released, saying that those who didn't know were not guilty, and the villagers were so happy that they were busy shouting to Lord Qingtian, and when Zhu Wenqing finished cleaning up the miscellaneous people in the yard, he was dressed and coughed: "Where is the Cheng'an County Order?" ”

Zhu Wenqing hurriedly bowed forward to answer, Shen Kuo called Liu Yanzhang's name again, and Liu Xiaohu took Liu and Lindsay Yu to stand still.

"The emperor said, Cheng'an Liu Yanzhang solved the people's crisis, and made meritorious contributions to the disaster of Wu Yue.

Lin Saiyu was confused when she heard it, does this mean that Liu Xiaohu will become an official? She didn't understand any of the terms said in the holy decree, and seeing that Liu Xiaohu and Liu had already bowed down, she hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

"Petty officials, get up quickly." Shen Kuo saw that Liu Xiaohu had received the holy decree, and hurriedly helped him get up with a smile, and Lin Saiyu was naturally busy helping Liu to get up.

Only then did Liu raise his head, wipe the tears in his eyes and look at the court member in front of him, this look couldn't help but froze, and muttered: "Saving? ”

Liu's voice was not big or small, just so that Shen Kuo, who was talking with Liu Xiaohu earnestly, heard it, his body was shocked, and it seemed that before meeting him, he was a woman with a short figure, a gentle face, and a dark blue cardigan about thirty-five or sixteen years old.

"This is the mother of the petty official, Liu." Zhu Wenqing hurriedly introduced, but saw that the tears in Liu's eyes couldn't stop flowing, and he didn't salute or say hello, just looked at Shen Kuo blankly.

"Sister-in-law?" Shen Kuo was shocked and walked over in one step, "But sister-in-law Liu?" ”

Liu didn't expect to experience his son's official title at this moment, and the double surprise of seeing the old man, he couldn't lift it in one breath and was about to fall, Lin Saiyu hurriedly supported her behind her, and called out in a scorched voice: "Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Sister-in-law, how did you get here? I've had a hard time looking for you. Shen Kuo's eyes were slightly red as he spoke, and his voice was a little choked.

Liu couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart, grabbed his arm, cried loudly, and his thoughts returned to the days when the gloomy clouds and bleak sky fell, how to run around, how to bow down everywhere, what kind of helplessness, how to treat him coldly everywhere, "Lord Shen! Why aren't you there! Why aren't you there! ”

Zhu Wenqing looked at the strange scene in front of him, receiving such a sad decree, I am afraid that there is no one before or since, although Lin Saiyu didn't know what happened, but Liu's sadness deeply infected her, and tears couldn't stop flowing.

Liu Xiaohu looked at the embarrassed court official in front of him who was silently crying with his mother, it turned out that he was the generalist Shen Kuo Shen Cunzhong that his father often said.

Because of a chance encounter in the field and his father became friends, he remembered in a trance that in his young impression, in the greenhouse at home next to the figure of his father's painstaking research, there was a figure of this person, he even remembered that the two of them said that they were happy, the greenhouse echoed with loud laughter, and also remembered that after the family suffered, his mother mentioned more than once that people went to find Lord Shen, and even after the house was lost, his mother also took him to the capital and asked around about Lord Shen's mansion, but they didn't wait, those people said that Lord Shen went to inspect the water conservancy, Later, he heard that Lord Shen was the right-hand man of the prince, so his mother took him out of the capital and never mentioned it again.

After finally sitting down in the house, Zhu Wenqing knew that they were old acquaintances, so he retired knowingly, let them talk well, Ying'er didn't dare to come in after boiling tea, Lin Saiyu had to take it herself, and personally poured it with Lord Shen, and then retreated behind Liu Xiaohu.

"At that time, it was too late for me to hear the news," Shen Kuo's voice lowered, his face was hard to hide his guilt, and his crossed hands were clenched tightly, "I rushed back from Zhejiang overnight, and my family said that you had left, and I sent a lot of people out to find it, some people said that you threw yourself into the river, and some people said that you starved to death... Sister-in-law, I am sorry for you. ”

After Liu Shi cried, he was much calmer, sighed and said: "Where do you use you to say this, I was originally confused, in fact, it is useless to find anyone, I can't save my life, and I have to burden you." ”

After saying this, the room was quiet for a moment, Shen Kuo sighed, yes, what the prime minister decided was that even the emperor couldn't pull it back, and he had already made trouble with the prime minister because of this, he could kill the chicken, why did he move the "land lord" Liu Xing? Even if it is a deterrent to put those gentry in danger, and the new law can be carried out smoothly, but the loss is likely to be hundreds of millions of catties of grain in the Great Song Dynasty. Shen Kuo was so angry that he almost pinched his hand, and it was gone?!

"Ah," Shen Kuo suddenly raised his head as if he thought of something, and only looked at Liu Xiaohu who was standing quietly on the side, "Yanzhang is, is it Erlang?" ”

Liu nodded with some relief, took Xiaohu's hand, his eyes were full of pride, look, isn't his Liu family standing up again?

"Erlang, Erlang," Shen Kuo looked at Liu Xiaohu, this young man's eyebrows and eyes and body shape were a little imaginary with his father, and he was in a trance for a moment, "I remember, you were so young at that time, my sister-in-law hugged and wrapped in a small quilt, and took you out to eat full moon wine, goodbye you, just hiding under the seedling shelf of the greenhouse, your father shouted, scared you to run, hit the shelf and broke your head, crying or something, now, they are so big, I have always thought that a teenager can save the rice plague, what kind of father should he have, sure enough, Sure enough, there are only people from your Liu family. ”

Shen Kuo said, his eyes moistened again with mixed feelings, Liu Xiaohu lowered his head and was silent, tears falling on the surface of his feet.

"Erlang lost his father early, he was stupid, and his father generally admits death, I want him to be an official for the Liu family, but I am really worried about being an official, I know that you big officials have these hundred hearts, we Erlang is honest, don't be coaxed, if someone else comes, I won't let him take this order," Liu said, patted Liu Xiaohu's hand, stood up and made a big salute to Shen Kuo, so panicked that Shen Kuo hurriedly got up and returned the salute, "In the future, Erlang will rely on Lord Shen to teach, I don't ask him for much wealth and fame, As long as An An is steady and down-to-earth, it is enough to restore the reputation of my Liu family. ”

While pulling Liu Xiaohu and said, "Come, kowtow to Lord Shen and call uncle." ”

Liu Xiaohu did as he said, Shen Kuo knew Liu's intentions, and he didn't refuse, seeing Liu Xiaohu kowtow twice, he picked him up and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Erlang is a promising young man, and he will definitely be able to achieve great things." ”

Liu Shi was relieved at this time, sat down, and ordered Lindsay Yu to add tea, Shen Kuo glanced at the woman dressed as a girl, and recognized that it was the woman who gave him a jaw bone for the first time in the chaos, and he was inexplicably curious, he remembered the words of the vegetable farmers who brought him here, could this girl who was smaller than Erlang be the big lady who created this large-scale greenhouse vegetable in the mouth of those vegetable farmers?

"This is Erlang's daughter-in-law." Seeing Shen Kuo's question, Liu said with a smile.

"I've seen adults." Lin Saiyu lowered her head and added tea, and after hurriedly retreating to the side, she quietly looked at this adult who was regarded as a vegetable thief, there was such a messenger, without official clothes and no entourage, and went to other people's fields to see, she thought that Liu Xiaohu's actions must have surprised these big officials in the capital, of course there will be suspicions, but there are very few big officials who come to check in person because of suspicion, right?

Who will this Lord Shen be? Lord Shen! Sink!? Lindsay's brain exploded! Shen Kuo! Shen Kuo of "Dream Creek Writings"? "You, are you Lord Shen Kuo?" Lin Saiyu was so shocked by this sudden thought that she forgot the etiquette, raised her head and stared wide, and opened her mouth to ask.

Shen Kuo was talking to Liu's mother and son, and was suddenly startled by this loud voice, Liu had already frowned, this daughter-in-law is good at everything, but her background is not good, those etiquette rules are broken by herself, and they are useless in her, Erlang is not an official, and the two of them are nothing in the village, now that Erlang is an official, she will have to be ordered to add to her life in the future, what kind of surprise does it look like, doesn't it make people laugh?

"It's the official." Shen Kuo nodded with a smile, looking at the woman in front of him who was almost about to stare out of her eyes, "Little lady, do you also know this official?" ”

Know! Of course I know, Lin Saiyu almost wanted to pounce on this person and pinch it, really, this is a living person, but it is not the portrait she saw in class, the sculpture she saw in the museum, this is alive!

"Erudite and good at writing, he has written on astronomy, chronicles, calendars, music, medicine, and divination." Lindsay's eyes lit up as she muttered.

Shen Kuo smiled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This official doesn't dare to be a little lady so praised." Saying this, he was also a little surprised, was he so famous? Even a village girl in a remote village knows herself, and she tells all his knowledge? Some of them are just his idle hobbies, and some are just beginning to get in touch, but not many people know about them, how can this little lady know everything?

For the sentence "The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom", Shen Kuo when he was a child was able to go up the mountain to personally verify it, not to mention such a big deed of Liu Xiaohu played by Wu Yue, of course he had to check it himself to be sure.

Shen Kuo! At this time, Lin Saiyu looked a little stupid in the eyes of the other three, she was so excited that there were no words to describe her mood at this time, in layman's terms, she was like seeing a god!

She wanted to say a lot, she wanted to ask him about the details of building and opening up 1,270 hectares of fertile land that could be drained and irrigated, and ensured by drought and flood, how he came up with the summation method of the second-order difference series, and how he learned what he knew and what he could refine, but a thousand words were combined into one sentence, "Lord Shen, you, do you want to eat my cooking?" ”

Because they saw Lin Saiyu distracted, the other three people in the room began to talk again, Shen Kuo had to go back to reply, and the Liu family also had a lot of things to entrust him, of course they had to hurry up and talk, Lin Saiyu's sudden words made the three of them a little stunned.

"Daughter-in-law," Liu pulled down her face, she didn't know what to say!

Liu Xiaohu saw that it was cold, and hurriedly said to Shen Kuo: "My lord, my lady made a good meal, she is happy, I don't know how to say it, uncle, don't mind." ”

While pulling Lin Saiyu, he said gently, "Lady, my uncle is very busy, I'm afraid that I won't have time, but when we enter Beijing, we will naturally invite my uncle to dinner, and then you can show your skills." ”

Shen Kuo also nodded and smiled, looking at Lin Saiyu's outfit, he knew that this young couple had not yet become a real husband and wife, but they were also very affectionate, and said: "Yes, I will try the craftsmanship of my nephew and daughter-in-law at that time." ”

Liu Shi breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Lin Saiyu, but Lin Saiyu didn't pay attention, she tilted her head and thought about it, and said in a somewhat trembling voice: "Then, Lord Shen, you, can you sign for me?" ”

As a result, none of Lindsay's wishes were fulfilled, but she received two days of reprimands and a week of special etiquette training for her.

It was not early, and Zhu Wenqing couldn't let Lord Qincha stay in this farmhouse in the remote countryside all the time, and Shen Kuo was really tired, so he asked Liu Xiaohu to pack up quickly and set off in two days, and followed Lord Zhu to the county seat.

In fact, according to the plan, they should set off tomorrow, but Shen Kuo was really curious about the Liu family's land, and there were many questions that had not been resolved, so he had to spare two days to take a good look, so he could only let the emperor who was anxiously waiting for this genius boy in the palace to wait a few more days.
