Chapter 3: Father and Son IX

readx;? Chapter 3: Father and Son (9)

"Your Excellency, my Mi Karma is unforgettable!" Wen Mo, the old pharmacist, was overjoyed when he heard this! As soon as his knees bent, he was about to kneel down and kowtow again. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info's arms were held by Ning Ziming, unable to move down a bit.

"Your Excellency, I will never forget it!" The elders, nobles, and herdsmen who were watching around were not hindered in any way. Hearing that the young "divine doctor" not only agreed to teach the tribal pharmacist a stunt, but also allowed two more young apprentices to observe, they bowed down again and thanked them loudly.

The vast majority of them don't know how to do it, and of course they can't know what "scraping bones to cure poison" is all about. However, they knew that the ability to make their own pharmacist elders repeatedly knock on the prime minister and ask for each other must be invaluable. Therefore, one by one, they bowed sincerely and were full of gratitude.

Seeing this, Ning Ziming had to say a few polite words to everyone. It is said that the Uighur Tang Dynasty belonged to a family, and although the world has changed, it is still connected by blood. When the Uighur elders, nobles, and herdsmen heard this, they became more and more joyful, and they all felt that although the distinguished guest in front of them was not very old, he was well-versed in affairs, affectionate and righteous, and he was a heroic man worthy of everyone's sincere friendship.

When the onlookers dispersed, the two brothers wanted to go to have a meal quietly, but there was no possibility at all. Everywhere I went, people kept coming up to thank you. Passing by the shopkeeper, as long as you take a few more glances at something, before you can ask the price, the shopkeeper can't wait to pick it up and stuff it into your hand. When I entered the restaurant on the side of the road, no one even showed me the water bill, and the big guy on duty immediately ordered the kitchen to put the best dishes into the pot, and in a moment, a large table was set up, and I didn't take a penny.

Unable to stand the enthusiasm of the top and bottom of the Mi Karma Department, Chai Rong and Ning Ziming filled their stomachs as quickly as possible and fled back to the rented tent. I thought that I could hide from a quiet situation for the time being, but who would have thought that the pharmacist Wen Mo was worried that his new master and uncle would freeze their bones when they slept, so he specially sent a housekeeper with four young girls to warm the quilt for the two......

At this time, Ning Ziming was embarrassed. It's easy to say, gambling and vowing, and in the end, he simply took out the back of his head and couldn't get close to the woman for three years, so he reluctantly sent the housekeeper and the girls away. turned around sharply, but suddenly realized that the eldest brother Chai Rong was approaching this year, and there had been no "meat" along the way. Unconsciously feeling a little apologetic, he scratched his scalp and said in a low voice: "Big brother, if the eldest brother has a crush on any woman, just leave her behind." Anyway, anyway, you and my brother have to stay here for at least half a month. There is a person who pours tea and water by his side, which is also convenient!"

"Bah, what did you just do, boy? Now that I've driven everyone away, I'm pretending to be generous with my brother again!" Chai Rong spat at him and shook his head with a smile, "Forget it, you have been a saint all day, and you don't expect to repay your kindness, and I, as a brother, can't pull your hind legs no matter what." In the past half a month, I will warm myself in the quilt, so that spring has come, so as not to leave an old cold leg!"

When Ning Zi heard this, he felt more and more that he was not careful in doing things, and he was so embarrassed that he was at a loss. When Chai Rong saw it, he hurriedly added with a smile, "Okay, I'm just joking with you." I'm not that kind of horse? I can't sleep without a woman! Besides, as far as I can see, the customs and habits of this Mitsumi tribe are very close to those of the Central Plains. Those four maids are still virgins, and you and my brother slept with them, and it was inconvenient to bring them back to the Central Plains. If they themselves don't have a strong enough father and brother behind them, it will be difficult for them to raise their heads in their husband's house in the future!"

"Oh!" Ning Ziming agreed in a low voice, and some of the second monks were confused. Since regaining consciousness from a coma, all the women he knew together had been less than a slap in the face. Whether it is Ning Caichen or Han Chongyun, they are all people in the army, and they don't focus on daily trivial matters, and of course no one thinks of giving him some basic enlightenment in terms of men and women. Therefore, the concept of virginity and non-virginity is still confused in the minds of young people. I can't understand why I can't even understand why I can't hold my head up in my husband's house after I don't have a strong enough father and brother to support me?

Now that the three of them have married Jin Lan, Chai Rong regards himself as a genuine eldest brother. Keenly aware of Ning Ziming's youthfulness, he was stunned, frowned and asked in surprise: "Could it be that you are still a chick? You have never even had a maid who warms the bed?" My God! You really opened my eyes!"

"I, I, I ......" Ning Ziming was embarrassed as if he had been caught stealing something, and he was embarrassed. He raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat, and stammered, "Haven't I been messing around on Wagang Mountain before?" The big guys are all in danger, who can care about treating me as a son-in-law? As for the arrival of the Wusheng Army, he has been training and fighting non-stop. Of course, of course, there is no time to care about other things!"

"God!" Chai Rong sat down on the stool and rubbed his brow with his hand, "It's an ordinary big family in the countryside, at your age, you have already bought a personal maid, and you have studied the affairs of men and women, you still don't know anything? You are still a prince? To be honest, if it weren't for that Feng Ji's insistence, and you yourself have always been ambiguous, I really can't believe that you are His Royal Highness King Zheng!"

"I still have to be, but I can't deny it!" mentioning his confused identity, Ning Ziming felt a shadow in his heart, grinned, and said stupidly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit you!" Chai Rong immediately realized that he shouldn't open any pot without mentioning which pot, and quickly arched his hand and took the initiative to explain. "But brother, I really, really think this matter is very strange. Whether in terms of speech or demeanor, or in how you treat people, you don't feel like you come from a prominent family. Even the middle households are very reluctant, at most they have grown a rich skin! Don't get me wrong! I don't look down on you as a brother, and my own background is also very ordinary. It is said that the family used to have money, but by the time my father had spent it a long time ago, so I was adopted by my aunt and uncle! Most of the children of wealthy families I have seen are so proud that no one can approach them, even if they don't have their eyes on the top of their heads. Like your second brother, he is already an outlier among them. But if he hadn't lived and died with the two of us once, and cherished each other, he wouldn't have looked at a trader and a swordsman squarely!"

"Hehe——!" Ning Ziming grinned and smiled bitterly quietly. He himself didn't feel that his temperament and demeanor were not like those of a family from a large family. But the problem now is that there is more and more evidence and witnesses who have determined that he is the second prince Shi Yanbao. The more he tried to deny it, the more it seemed like he was deliberately escaping reality!

"And your stunt of scraping bones and curing poison! To be honest, if it weren't for Jing Niang's hopeless cure, who would dare to let you take a risk? Although the Mi Karma Department uses this skill as a treasure, the witch doctor and musician have been a cheap industry since ancient times! If you are really a prince, how can the elders in the family be willing to let you learn these things? Take 10,000 steps back, even if Fu Yaozi is willing to teach, without ten years of hard work, how can you be so proficient?"

"Hiss——!" Ning Ziming gasped again, his face full of solemnity. This is indeed a very big question, and he himself has always been puzzled. Although he has always told outsiders that this technique was taught by Chen Tuan. But for so long by Master Chen's side, he doesn't seem to have seen Chen Tuo perform it in person!

"Am I the second prince?"

"I'm not the second prince, why do I look exactly like him?"

"What's the matter with those memories of being killed? Why do bits and pieces keep appearing more and more in my head, getting clearer and clearer?"

"...... me?"

......

Countless questions came to mind. It was as if his soul had been drained, his face pale, his eyes glazed, and his body swayed.

"Forget it, you don't have to be upset about this!" I didn't expect Ning Ziming to be stimulated so much, Chai Rong was so frightened that he stood up and gently held his shoulder, "Anyway, whether you are surnamed Shi or Ning, you are my third brother." Because my brother can't help you to recapture the country, it shouldn't be a problem to protect you from being hunted down for the rest of your life. ”

"More big brother!" Feeling the power coming from the other party's palm, Ning Ziming grinned and arched his hand. In addition to Han Chongyun, Chai Rong is the second person in the world who will treat him as a brother no matter who he is, which makes him feel warm in his heart.

But after a blink of an eye, he remembered the agreement between Chang Si and himself. The bright eyes became dim again, "After going to Liaodong this time, no matter whether I can be sure that I am Shi Yanbao or not, I must return to Luzhou." Wu Shengjun, Wu Shengjun's side, I have to have an explanation!"

Chai Rong was slightly stunned when he heard this, glanced at him a few times, and said hesitantly, "How good it is for the three of us brothers to go through the world together, and we can still take care of each other! Don't worry, if you want to become a leader one day, Brother Wei will definitely help you with an official position that will not be lower than that of a command!"

"No, it's not for the sake of being an official!" Ning Ziming heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand again and again.

"Then why? Uncle Mo is still holding your handle in his hands? It is said that he is not that kind of person!" Chai Rong frowned, and his eyes were as warm as the morning sun.

Ning Ziming was so embarrassed by him that he had no choice but to smile bitterly a few more times, telling the truth about the gentleman's covenant between himself and Chang Si. After hearing this, Chai Rong felt more and more that his newly married third brother was pitiful. Shaking his head and smiling, he took care of everything, "Don't worry! Uncle Chang, I asked my father-in-law to come forward to deal with it for you." Uncle Chang is good at everything, he just blindly seeks stability and perfection, and no one wants to offend, unless someone puts a knife on his heart. The reason why he made a covenant with you in the first place was to tie you to his side and not to cause trouble to the King of Han. Now that the King of Han has gone west, and the Great Han Kingdom is getting on the right track, why does he continue to hold you in the palm of his hand? He, he himself does not have the strength to rebel!"

"No, it won't cause trouble to my uncle! If it's very troublesome, forget it, anyway, Chang Jiedu won't hurt me!" I didn't expect that the problem I thought was unsolvable was not the same thing in Chai Rong's eyes, Ning Ziming smiled and asked for confirmation anxiously.

Chai Rong shrugged his shoulders with a smile and disdainful, "What's the trouble? Don't worry, when my father-in-law was still a general, he dared to marry my aunt, who was the imperial concubine of the Tang Dynasty Zhuangzong! Now that he has become a privy deputy envoy, he still doesn't have the courage to protect you, a rootless prince of the former dynasty? Don't worry, it's okay, if I really misread my father-in-law, he won't protect you! Brother, I will take you and buy a boat to Nandu together." Let's go to the south and be Tao Zhu Yidun, and we will still be proud of the prince in this life!"

"Okay, then I'll go with my eldest brother to sell tea!" Ning Ziming was relieved when he heard this, and nodded with a smile.

"Actually, your identity as the second prince of the previous dynasty was nothing in the first place!" Fearing that Ning Ziming was still not at ease, Chai Rong thought about it and continued to explain in a low voice. "Before, they rushed to catch you as a puppet, just because you are young and there are no soldiers around you, so you are easy to bully!"

"Huh?" Ning Ziming listened to the novelty and tilted his head slightly.

Before I met Chai Rong, no one could analyze his problems from this perspective. The identity of the prince of the previous dynasty was like a dark cloud pressing on his head, so that he didn't think about it, and he felt extremely heavy on his shoulders.

This sentence is a bit of a big rebellion, but it is no problem for our brothers to talk about it in private. Since Zhu Wen usurped the throne, who of the successive sons of heaven in the Central Plains has not been a strong soldier and a strong horse? Who cares about the inheritance of bloodline? If someone is not strong in soldiers and horses, what is the use of robbing you to be a puppet? On the other hand, if your soldiers are strong and strong, and they deny that you are the second prince, how can they forcefully push the throne under your ass? That old wolf, it is said that his surname is Li? Do you see that over the years, who dares to say that he is a fellow sect of Li Cunqiao of the Later Tang Dynasty? It's just a bunch of snobs, just pretending to be confused!"

"Smack!" the candles in the tent burst into flames, illuminating the entire tent as bright as day.

Ning Ziming's eyes are also bright!

It was a path he had never thought of. You don't have to rely on others anymore, you can rely on yourself.

The Son of Heaven is the one who is strong and strong. Those who don't want to be the son of heaven can refuse to be strong and strong. The grandfather of Fu Yanqing, the Duke of Wei, was Li Keyong's adopted son Li Cunxian, who inherited the qualifications of the Later Tang Dynasty and was the same as Li Siyuan of Tang Mingzong. But after the Tang Dynasty died for so many years, Li Cunqiao and Li Siyuan's sons and nephews were killed cleanly, but Li Cunxian's family only changed back to their original surname, and no one would try to take them as puppets, and no one dared to think of knocking them on the door and cutting down the men of this family!

Without him, the Fu family soldiers are strong and strong!

They say that if they don't have the surname Li, they won't have the surname Li, and outsiders can't wait for them to give up their qualifications to compete for the world!

And if he has enough strength one day, whether his surname is Shi, Ning or Zheng, who would dare to say one more word?

"Big brother, thank you!" With sincere gratitude, Ning Ziming gently bowed his hand to Chai Rong. Some of the young faces were alive by the candlelight.

As a young man with little experience and sharp edges, he never wanted to be under the wings of Chang Si, the envoy of the Wusheng Army, for the rest of his life. Although the latter saved his life for him, he always treated him as a descendant.

He likes Chang Wanying, not only out of gratitude, but also because he feels that they are very close to each other and that they are worth staying with each other for a lifetime. And working under Chang Si's command always makes him feel that he relies on other people's daughters to rise to prominence. I always feel that someone will look at me with strange eyes, making it difficult for me to straighten my waist and speak and do things.

Of course, these are all his careful thoughts in private as a young boy, and he can't tell anyone. And tonight, in addition to continuing to lead the troops to fight in the Wusheng army, he saw another way out, and suddenly felt that there was a bright light in front of him.

"My own brother, don't talk about the outside!" finally made a smile appear on the face of his third brother, Chai Rong also felt in a good mood, smiled, and joked in a low voice. "Actually, I think it's a good choice for you to become a merchant! Our brothers sell tea from the south to the north in the spring, and furs and medicinal herbs from the north to the south in the autumn. Hehe, see the beautiful scenery of the world, sleep all the beauties in the world, no matter who he is the emperor, he can live happily for a lifetime. ”

"I, where do I know how to do business?" Ning Ziming realized that Chai Rong wanted to divert the topic, scratched his head, and said very cooperatively.

"If you don't know how to do business, there will be no qualified businessmen in the world!" Chai Rong smiled slightly and shook his head vigorously, "I have been afraid that you will be forced by the situation today and be taken away by the Uighurs in vain, and I have been thinking about how to help you think of a way, short catties and less than two, but I didn't expect that you would be better at trading than me, and you actually used a stunt of scraping bones to cure poison in exchange for the gratitude of the entire Miritsu Department." Okay this time, from now on you will be equivalent to hiding a strange soldier outside the fortress. When you need them, you can summon them right away!"

"I, where did I think so much!" Ning Ziming was exaggerated, blushed, and waved his hand to explain. "I just thought that the people in the tribe here were all good, and they shouldn't be driven out and killed!

After hearing this, Chai Rong continued to smile and shake his head, "So you have the talent to do business? It's just that you don't realize it! Exchanging sincerity for sincerity is the highest state of doing business, third brother, you can be regarded as self-taught! If you keep thinking about taking other people's for nothing, or always thinking about making enough money, without considering the interests of the other party, it will become a hammer deal, even if it succeeds, there will be no second time!"

This is his business experience, and the scope of application is not only business. Because he saw that Ning Ziming was as simple as a blank sheet of paper at this moment, he took the initiative to tell him frankly.

Ning Ziming didn't seem to understand when he heard it, he groaned for a while, and added in a low voice, "Even if I insist on not giving it at that time, I'm afraid I won't be able to! Counting the second brother and Sister Jing Niang, there are only seven of us here." Being blocked in the camp by others, it is impossible to escape if you want to!"

"This involves another science, judge the situation!" Chai Rong nodded, and continued to consciously preach and teach the young people, "When the difference in strength is too great, it is better to choose to compromise temporarily than to tear your face and not even have a chance to turn the book." Back then, Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, was also humiliated by Weishui, and it was all by offering jewelry to the Turks that he was able to compromise. But just a dozen years later, the Khan of the Turks was arrested in Chang'an to guard the palace gate for His Majesty Taizong!"

"Hmm!" Ning Ziming immediately remembered his nominal father, Shi Chonggui, who unfortunately died because he refused to continue to be the grandson of the Khitans.

From the perspective of being a person, he admires this kind of toughness, but judging from the final result, Shi Chonggui is not a qualified emperor in any way. It is equivalent to fighting for himself and causing misery to the Central Plains.

"Virtue and wisdom are never the same thing. Some people have impeccable conduct, but when they start to do things, they are always a mess. Some people are obviously despicable, but when they sit up and do things, they are clear-sighted and rarely make mistakes. "Chai Rong is definitely a qualified big brother, intentionally or unintentionally, when young people are most confused, he gives the most needed guidance. "So when we hold ourselves, we strive to be decent. To make friends, you should also choose a righteous gentleman. What can be used to do things is to follow the guidance of wisdom first, rather than blindly being a righteous man......"

He knew that no one had taught Ning Ziming these things before, so he didn't force the latter to understand, but just said whatever he remembered, one sentence in the east, one sentence in the west, and told the other party his life experience bits and pieces.

And Ning Ziming didn't realize that the eldest brother, who had just married, was nodding himself. Following each other's train of thought, there is a sentence, there is no sentence, and I listen intermittently.

There are some points that he very much agrees with. There were other points of view that he could not accept. Whenever he encounters something he doesn't want to accept, he directly questions or refutes it. Chai Rong was not angry, but changed to another angle and once again interpreted his point of view completely.

The two brothers, chatting and chatting, became tired. They said goodbye to each other, yawned, and slept in separate tents. No one thought about what tonight's conversation meant for both sides.

It wasn't until many years later that Chai Rong finally discovered that he had personally cultivated a world-famous general with both wisdom and bravery.

And at that time, Ning Ziming, the king of Zheng of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was no longer confused about his own life experience.

Because in his memory, in addition to suffering, there are always a few wisps of warmth as a kindred spirit. warmed him, encouraged him, and made him grow from a young boy step by step to a man, standing up to the sky.

Note 1: From the Five Dynasties to the Northern Song Dynasty, the film was not valued to the point of perversion. Guo Wei married Li Cunxuan's widow, and Chai Rong Xuxian married Li Shouzhen's daughter-in-law. Song Zhenzong's favorite concubine Liu E, also known as Empress Dowager Liu, is simply someone else's concubine. However, the mainstream of society has begun to pay attention to the issue of women's "chastity", especially when women do not have the support of their fathers and brothers, and if they lose their virginity before marriage, they are often spurned by their husbands.
