1. Officialdom is wonderful

The patriarch asked Chen Lu, and he just said it simply, involving heavenly secrets and secrets, and he didn't dare to reveal a word.

After a few days, Ade gradually improved, did not go out to practice medicine, hid at home, and taught his son all what he had learned in his life to buy slaves.

Finally, I discussed with my family: "Ning Yue'an, at this point today, I can't stay in the city anymore." I wanted to die but I couldn't, so I had to travel all over the world. People say that Jiangnan is good, so I'll go to Jiangnan for a trip, and when Jinghui's matter has a result, I'll come back. ”

The family couldn't persuade them. This old man in his sixties, without a penny of silver, a medicine box, a pulse pillow, and a wine gourd, went to the south of the Yangtze River alone.

His destination was Jiangyou Province. From Licheng to Jiangyou Province for thousands of miles, Ade practiced medicine all the way, cured diseases and saved people, and did not take a penny. Some people saw that he was old and gave him a lot of money, but he just didn't want it.

Sometimes they eat and drink a lot and don't eat for a few days. Some people saw that he was shabby, and he wore single clothes in winter, so they gave him a new set of clothes, but he refused cotton clothes, he was not afraid of the cold, and he did not wear cotton clothes in winter. But there is one item, someone poured wine into his gourd, and he always refused to come.

Along the way, he has changed the dynasty, the dynasty has unified China, the new dynasty weather, the country is stable, the people are rich, the road is not forgotten, and the night is not closed. He stayed overnight, and after seven years, he arrived at Shikoukeng in Jiezhou, Jiangyou Province.

There is indeed a big family surnamed Chen here, who gave birth to a son at the age of forty-five, named Chen Lu, the word Zicheng. This child has an abnormal endowment, but Master Chen is old and very pampered, so he lets him do whatever he wants. He didn't like to read, especially the Four Books and the Five Classics. Usually slander the monks and slander the world's famous people.

Ademao then recommended himself to go to the house to do a western seat, teaching Chen Lu Mongolian and Western Regions dialect.

Xiao Zicheng is a strange child, but he is very interested in these left side doors, he has studied for four or five years, and has learned Mongolian and Western Dialect proficiently, three tombs, five classics, eight ropes, nine hills, all of which are incomprehensible; Astronomy and geography, customs and customs, all know everything, but I don't like to work.

But he can be said to look up to his mentor Ade, and he obeys his words.

Ade advised him to engage in karma, to understand, understand, and memorize the "Four Books" and "Five Classics".

At this time, Chen Lu was already thirteen or fourteen years old, and he was late in his career. Under Ade's persuasion, he realized the importance of his career, studied more seriously, and was admitted to Zhongfu County School at the age of seventeen. Later, he was ranked in Huangjia and ranked 29 in high school.

But something went wrong during the temple exam.

Before the palace examination, the Ministry of Rites should practice etiquette, so as not to make mistakes and be impeached by the palace attendants, and everyone is very attentive.

Chen Lu is usually used to being casual, talking is cloudy and foggy, without boundaries, no matter who he talks to, as long as he is not an elder, he must be "my old man" when he opens his mouth and closes his mouth, and when he talks to his elders, he also does not leave the three words "my old Chen".

When he arrived at the Jinluan Treasure Palace, he didn't take it seriously. On the day of the palace test, I came to the palace hall, looked around, and did not follow the rules when the emperor lectured, and was really impeached by the imperial history, saying that he behaved frivolously and did not look like a scholar.

Fortunately, he was not charged with "great disrespect", but he fell off the list.

Fortunately, the emperor is very diligent in government, and he read all the test questions of these people, and found that Chen Lu is a splendid article, not only has a good hand, but also has something to say, Longyan Dayue, and added him when he released the list, but he was placed in the third-to-last, and finally did not fall off the list, and was born as a Jinshi.

The family didn't know what was going on, thinking that he started late, which was already rare.

But officials at the court knew that he was "frivolous in his manners." Looking at his usual behavior, he sat down. The promotion was not fast, and it was only in his forties that he reluctantly made a review of the Hanlin of the dynasty. And this is just a false name, his actual job is a petty official of the pedestrian division, and he has not been an official in Beijing for a few days at all, and he has been running around outside.

When he reached this age, he still didn't change, and he didn't change everything, he changed one word, changing "I Lao Chen" to "I Zicheng". Most of the people in the officialdom are also very good, and their manners are moderate, and the Beijing division can't tolerate this strange official at all.

At the beginning, Chen Lu was a talent in the examination, and Ade left the Chen Mansion and did not return to the city, so he didn't know where he went. More than twenty years have passed before you know it.

Ade's son, Mainu, succeeded his father and became the chief physician. He not only inherited Lao Tzu's medical skills, but also inherited Lao Tzu's ethics, and for more than 20 years, he has a good reputation in Jiangli City. At this time, he was also in his sixties, and when his father arrived at Chen Lu's house, he once wrote letters, but later there were fewer letters.

Mai Nu was worried about his old son, and sent someone to Jiangyou Province to inquire about his father's news, saying that he had already left.

A few more years passed, and there was still no news. Think about it if you are still alive, you are already in your nineties. In the outer part of the city, I have never seen a person who can live to such an age. Buying a slave is considered a long life.

There was no way to buy a slave, so I had to bury another mound of my father's clothes next to my mother, and then study the patella when I had a whereabouts.

Mainu has been paying attention to Jinghui Lao Nun. He is now sixty-eight years old, and he was not an abbot twenty-four years ago.

She is still sick, and she has seen hundreds of doctors, including Chinese medicine, Mongolian medicine, and Huihui medicine. Of course, some say that it is a happy pulse.

After so many years, in the last year, the belly has been bulging day by day, and in the fall, a baby girl was born.

This baby girl is no different from an ordinary baby. It's a big thing, a strange thing, a strange thing. Not only did it cause a sensation in the city, but even the Xuanwei Division and the Wangye's Mansion were also alarmed.

A sixty-eight-year-old nun was pregnant for twenty-four years before she was born, and she was either a monster or a monster.

There are officials who are familiar with history books, and they know that the praise of the Zhou Youwang period was in the twenty-seventh year of the mother's womb, and then the Great Zhou Dynasty was troubled, and the princes of the beacon fire play.

The prince's mansion sent two grandmothers to discuss with Jinghui to kill the baby girl. As soon as the words fell, the sleeping baby suddenly woke up and began to cry.

Jinghui said, "Impossible", as soon as these three words landed, the baby girl grinned again.

The two grandmothers were shocked, did not dare to persuade again, and hurriedly went back to report to the prince. Before leaving, I went to the abbot. The abbot advised Jinghui more than once to leave the monastery if he was reluctant to have children, so as not to defile the holy land of Buddhism.

In fact, Jinghui has long had suicidal thoughts, she is innocent, and she is about to be seventy years old and embarrassed, especially sorry for the old doctor Ade, who has made it difficult for people to return to their homes and die in a foreign country.

Strangely, whenever she had such thoughts, the child took her hand and seemed to understand her thoughts.

Two days later, the palace sent a team of soldiers, with a few grandmothers, and the new imam of the city. This is the son of the old patriarch, and the son succeeds his father. He is not a father, he has been a patriarch for forty years, and he has done a lot of good deeds for his neighbors and government villagers, and people respect him very much.

But from the father's generation to the son's generation, the new patriarch not only acted as a threat, but also endangered the village.
