95, chapter ninety-fifth(1/2)

"Playing Song"/Chunxi Di Xiao

Chapter 95

Wang Yun and a group of volunteers worked hard for a long time and sorted out all the injuries. After hearing Wang Yun's words, Di Yong went to Kaifeng Prefect Wang Gui to report first-hand information.

When Wang Gui encountered such a disaster during his tenure, he almost turned his hair white. When he heard someone say that Di Qing's son Di Yong asked for a meeting, he frowned and asked someone to bring Di Yong over.

Although Di Qing became a Privy Councilor, he did not often interact with civil officials and rarely took Di Yong out for friendship. Therefore, when he was seeking to see Wang Gui, Di Yong was a little nervous.

However, I thought that many people were sick and some people were injured and could not find a doctor. Di Yong bravely handed over the list compiled by Wang Rong and others to Wang Gui, explaining the specific situation in a straightforward manner.

Post-disaster epidemic prevention has always been the top priority. Wang Gui was alert after hearing Di Yong's words. He was so busy that he was dizzy these two days, but he didn't expect this! Wang Gui breathed a sigh of relief and said to Di Yong with praise: "Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your father for me."

Di Yong said honestly: "It was not my father who asked us to do it, it was done by the Imperial College Supervisors and Supervisors together, but Yuan Ze called me by the way."

When Wang Gui heard the word "Yuanze", he browsed and asked someone to call Wang Rong, who was waiting for the new friends to return to the team outside.

Wang Rong and Su Shi and the others observed the clouds in the sky to see if the rain had stopped. Then someone found out and said that the prefect called him to go in.

Wang Rong and Su Shi looked at each other, but they didn't know what the prefect called him to do. Did Di Yong be too honest and praised him in front of the prefect?

How can I be so embarrassed!

Wang Yun followed people to meet the prefect and saw a familiar figure standing there from a distance. After a closer look, wasn’t this Wang Gui who worked in Yangzhou with his father back then? In short, Wang Gui was the same year as his father, and his father ranked fourth, Wang Gui ranked second, and his literary talent was first-class.

Wang Yun remembered that he was still wearing open-crotch pants and running around. The "golden waist" raised by Han Qi opened, and four flowers bloomed as soon as they opened. The golden waist is a kind of peony. When the flowers bloom, the petals are red on the top and bottom, and there is a layer of golden stamens in the middle, which is very special.

It is said that this flower is awesome and cannot be raised at any time, and it cannot be raised and bloomed. Once it blooms, the prime minister will appear in Yangzhou City.

This time, four flowers were opened. The rumors really came true. This is to produce four prime ministers!

Good intentions!

After thinking about it, boss Han Qi thought that Wang Rong's father and Wang Gui were both prime ministers and invited another person, but the man had something to do, but no one came. An official sent by the court to work in the office passed by. Boss Han Qi invited the official to enjoy the flowers together.

After the appreciation, the four people cut off four "golden waist-wrapped" flowers, each of which was on their heads. Wang Yun was so happy to see his father wearing flowers from afar. He ran over happily, preparing to take a closer look at the appearance of his father and a few big men wearing flowers.

Seeing him snuck over to look at Hua Xiao, his father misunderstood what he meant. He carried him to his knees and tied the golden waist on his head to his little head. He was small and big, and his appearance was very funny. Anyway, boss Han Qi and Wang Gui were laughing at him!

Wang Yun was so angry that he went to their place to search for good things every day, and ran away when he found them, without leaving any for them!

As soon as the memory was regained, Wang Rong felt something was wrong. He was thinking about whether to turn around and slip away. Wang Gui had already waved to him: "What are you doing with a slow heart? When you were so naughty when you were a child, you became a coward when you grew up?"

How can a man be a coward?

Wang Rong walked up and greeted Wang Gui in a good manner, and said enthusiastically: "Hello Uncle Wang! I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you very much! I didn't expect you to be the prefect of Kaifeng. If I had known, I would have visited you once!"

Wang Gui snorted: "If you really want to come, you have to say to me in advance so that I can put away the things early."

Wang Rong was not happy either: "Look at what you said, it seems like I would be a thief. Didn't that know anything when I was a child? I've stopped doing that long ago. I'm so obedient now. If you don't believe me, please ask, who are the direct speakers of the Imperial College who don't praise me!"

Wang Gui said: "Is this true? Why did I hear your Yang Zhi say? When you entered the prison, you deceived him around. Later, you also caused some trouble every day, making the Imperial College more lively than in previous years."

Wang Rong: “…”

Wang Rong felt that the conversation could not continue.

There is indeed no secret among literati. They are all officials in court. Who doesn’t talk about gossip with their colleagues when they are resting? No need to think that Wang Rong can figure out how they will arrange them behind their backs when they meet!

Wang Rong said stubbornly: "That's all the past, I'm so obedient now!"

Wang Gui didn't plan to argue with him whether he was good or not. Knowing that Wang Rong followed Wang Anshi to follow the epidemic prevention work, he directly sent Wang Yun and his group of people to join the imperial medical staff, and asked them to integrate the medical staff from the Imperial Medical Bureau and the private sector to count the medicinal materials in Kaifeng Prefecture, and then to treat the injured and sick people.

Wang Rong and Di Yong went out to meet Su Shi, and then took Wang Gui's order to work. The imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau would never come out to escape the disaster, and they were waiting for their duties loyally. Those hiding in the Daxiangguo Temple were all students studying medicine at the Imperial Medical Bureau and apprentices who helped workers.

Wang Rong and his group took people to various Zen temples to treat the injured and sick.

It was time to eat, Wang Rong and others went back to find food. Di Yong returned to the Zen temple where Di Qing was. Seeing that his father looked bad, he hurriedly told Di Qing about everything about the day.

Di Qing was a little satisfied when he learned that Wang Rong had not taken his son to do something that he shouldn't do. Since his son liked to work with Wang Rong, Di Qing didn't advise him any more and waved his hand to let him eat something.

Early the next morning, Di Yong went to Wang Yun to take action. Wang Yun cleaned up the noisy Daxiangguo Temple from the injury to order, and then took people with him, either holding an umbrella or wearing a straw raincoat to see the water.

Everyone felt uncomfortable watching the familiar streets that were flooded with the backflow of turbid water. The sky was still gloomy and the rain kept falling, without any intention of stopping.

When encountering such a disaster, Wang Rong had no choice but to watch the officers and soldiers in charge of rescue taking boats or sending people to high places, or transporting supplies to dense crowds.

After a few days, the deadly rain finally stopped and the water gradually receded. Wang Yun and his group were sent around by Wang Guizhi every day, and they had to report the situation outside to Fan Zhongyan in time, so as not to come out to check in person with concern.

After the flood, Kaifeng City was in a mess. Many people's homes were flooded for several days, and all the things in their homes were no longer available. Some houses were not strong enough. When they went home, they found that the house collapsed directly.

This is true in the city, and there are countless houses destroyed in the flood!

After all, the emperor was at the feet of the emperor and the disaster relief work was done well. The official opened his private treasury to allocate grain and silk cloth to respond to the emergency, and the court was filled with praise. The Imperial Medical Bureau was rarely busy this time and cooperated with the Kaifeng prefect Wang Gui to carry out post-disaster epidemic prevention work.

The Imperial College also suffered a disaster. Fortunately, the terrain of Tibet was also high and the collection of books was not flooded.

Wang Rong, Shen Kuo and others also took this opportunity to win the honor of entering the third floor. They went up to check whether the roof was leaking and whether the books were wet. Then they refused to leave as soon as they reached it!

It is said that all officials in the court were very satisfied with the performance of the Imperial College Supervisors in the flood, so even Hu Yuan, who was the most disciplined, was very pleased and turned a blind eye to the fact that they were staying on the third floor of the Tibetan house.

Several people were nestled there and read all the orphans collected by the Imperial College, but they felt that they were still unsatisfied and were quite interested in the collection of the third library of Chongwen Academy.

That is the National Library with a vast collection of books, with official and folk versions of the collection!

As the impact of the flood gradually became smaller, Wang Rong also received an urgent letter from his father: his father scolded him, saying that he did not know how to respect his elders, and he also educated his father in the letter. Then he scolded him for the second time, saying that there was a flood in Kaifeng, and he must have run around again, which was not worry-free at all. He would break his legs in the future.

Wang Yun shook his head when he saw it, knowing that his painstaking "communication art tutorial" must have been ignored by Wang Anshi. However, he would not be discouraged. He wrote and created it on the spot, and talked with his father about respect, equality, and not treating his son as a child, etc. Communication art.

After doing his death in a scattered manner, Wang Rong told Wang Anshi about his encounter with Wang Gui, and he sighed again, saying that Wang Gui had become an official in the capital. After all, you were in the same year. Why didn’t you come to Beijing to become an official? The capital is so good, the transportation is convenient, and there are many great people. Everything is great, and you can also protect your son from close range.

After Wang Yun finished writing the letter, he was not afraid at all and boldly sent it out.

The capital was affected by disasters, and the workshops in Fang's bookstore were also affected, and there were few other merchants. The capital was very depressed for a while. Fortunately, this was the heart city of the Song Dynasty, and it slowly recovered not long after.

In the hot summer, the Imperial College canteen also sells ice food, such as popsicles, smoothies, watermelon ice and iced mung bean soup. Wang Yun even saw small square jelly, which looked like vendors around the school in later generations.

It is said that the jelly is from Guangnan. The raw materials are made of jelly grass that is native to the other side. Anyway, the food on the market, and the "food team" under Manager Hu all have made great efforts to study it and improved many exclusive delicacies.

The students happily enjoyed the variety of canteen food, read the "National Style" which was released regularly every month in the printing press, and spent the usual very difficult summer.

After the autumn is approaching, the autumn examination is imminent, and the daily running exercises of the Imperial College are still underway. Before the autumn examination comes, the Imperial College still has a big test, and all subjects must be counted. Even the very small and transparent mathematics on weekdays must be taken, paying great attention to the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor.

If you want to take the autumn examination this year, this big exam is considered a survey and graduation exam; if you don’t take the autumn examination this year, you don’t have to take the autumn examination.

Everyone in Wang Yun’s dormitory thought of trying out the autumn examination this time, but some people simply planned to feel the atmosphere of the autumn examination. For example, Song Youguo, he knew that he would definitely not pass the exam!

When he was taking the exam for riding and archery after graduation, Wang Rong saw his new friend Di Yong again. Di Yong was at the age of taller age. He looked a little taller than when he met last time, and he was almost catching up with his father.

This time Di Yong came to be an assistant to the examiner. Seeing Wang Rong and the others from afar, Di Yong smiled shyly at him, making the surroundings shine brightly. Wang Rong poked Chen Shiru who was standing beside him and muttered to Chen Shiru: "There is no little lady here, why is he laughing so handsomely?"

Chen Shiru ignored him.

Wang Yun turned his head to look at Chen Shiru, and unexpectedly found that he was almost equal to Chen Shiru. It seems that a year has passed, and his height is so gratifying! Wang Yun told Chen Shiru happily about his discovery, and proudly deprived Chen Shiru: "Have you not grown tall this year? If we line up again in the future, you will be behind me!"

Chen Shiru's face became even more stinky: "Who can keep growing taller?"

Wang Rong suddenly shut up when he thought of the basic social etiquette that would not expose others' shortcomings.

Wang Yun naturally passed the assessment of the riding and archery class easily. Wang Yun was reluctant to let go of the horse that he had worked with for more than a year. He ran to tell it seriously before he talked to Di Yong.

Di Yong said: "I didn't expect you to be so powerful when riding and shooting."

Wang Rong said: "Of course, it's just that we have never hunted. We can go to the hunting ground together in the future."

Di Yong naturally agreed immediately.

In terms of comprehensive development, naturally few people in the Imperial College can compare with Wang Yun. This time he passed all his studies after graduation. Before he started taking the autumn exam, he got the "Jianyuan" first.

Of course, this sect is completely uncountable. It was just a joke in the Imperial College. Chen Shiru said a little sourly: "If you have the ability, please get a sect from the sect."

Han Zhongyan was honest and honest: "We are taking the Imperial College Entrance Examination, and then we are still taking the exam."

Chen Shiru said stubbornly: "That's not necessarily true. There are also some senior brothers who haven't passed the exam a few years ago, and this year they will also take the exam with us. Moreover, we are taking the exam separately from the Taixue side. There may not be no more powerful people in the Taixue school. I think Zizhan is good."

Wang Yun was not obsessed with not being the first in the exam. He said that his father lost the top scorer and was not still an official now? His father's top scorer was also training in the local area, and it was not bad. The imperial examination was just a pass. The future of his career depends entirely on his ability!

Before the autumn examination, Wang Yun received a letter from his father, Sima Guang and Sima Yan. Needless to say, Sima Guang and his daughter were all encouraged. His father also rarely paid attention to the art of speaking, telling him not to be too strong and do whatever he got into the exam, but he was still young anyway.

Wang Rong was very moved and felt that the "communication tutorial" he had worked hard to compile was very effective. The Imperial College has always set up a separate examination room, and the examination room is in the Imperial College, and the environment is much better than other examination rooms.

Grandmaster Han and Shen Kuo were a little miserable and had to take the exam.

The so-called "no" test is the relatives of the examiner, and students need to avoid the examiner. Among the six examiners who issued the Imperial College this time, one is Mr. Han's uncle Han Jiang, and the other is Shen Kuo's nephew, who are related to seniority, and they have to go to a separate examination room to take the exam!

The day before the exam, Wang Yun had a meal at Fan Zhongyan's house. Fan Zhongyan told him anything, saying that he would just go to the exam and would be casual if he did not pass the exam. Anyway, he would not expect to pass the exam.

However, Fan Chunli had never participated in the imperial examination and was nervous for Wang Rong. The next day, he sent Wang Rong to the examination room and went to work as a prison officer with dark circles.

The examiners were waiting in the examination room, and there were still servants at the door to conduct "security checks" for the scholars to see if there were any cheats or something.

In the past two years, the Imperial College Supervisory School has a good academic style, and no one has been found in the entire examination room. The examiners breathed a sigh of relief. The six examiners stood straight in the rising autumn sun and watched the candidates take their seats one by one.

Wang Rong's position is a bit unfortunate. He is facing the examiner's place. If the examiner doesn't go to the exam, he can see him with a glance - if he has a poor ability to bear, he must perform abnormally!

Wang Rong was not panicked. Anyway, his level would not change in any exam. Only the level of the candidates in the same year could not be compared. It was not something that could be decided in the examination room. Besides, when did he fear the exam and the examiner over the years?

Not only was Wang Rong not nervous, but he was also a little eager to try and couldn't wait to get the papers delivered.

Among the examiners, Han Wei and Shen Go are the ones who are most familiar with Wang Yun. It’s not that they have had contact with Wang Yun, but that they all have some relationship with Wang Yun’s classmates.

Han Wei is the uncle of Master Han. He rarely hears this nephew speak on his own initiative. He only mentions Wang Rong when he talks about the Imperial College at home a few times, and he always mentions Wang Rong. Over time, he becomes familiar with him.

Because of Shen Kuo, Shen Kuo had to call Shen Kuo as his uncle. Shen Kuo came to his mansion when he came to the capital. When the uncle and nephew chatted, Shen Kuo mentioned Wang Yun to him, saying that many of his "bestselling books" were written by Wang Yun, but Wang Yun was not willing to sign it.
