A powerful minister of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 184 Brother, why don’t you call Song Twelve your godfather?
Shi Yannian didn't care at first.

But he saw that Song Xuan's expression was serious.

In addition, everyone else was very fast, but he was the only one who was being held down.

Moreover, Song Xuan scolded himself not to drink.

For such a long time, Song Xuan didn't say anything, but frowned.

So he felt a little guilty.

The classmates who had just been playing around and competing to see who was in better health all fell silent.

Because they also noticed that Song Xuan looked unhappy, and even after a cup of tea, Song Xuan did not let go of Shi Yannian's hand.

"Brother Shi, I have something to say that I shouldn't have to."

When Shi Yannian heard Song Xuan's words, he subconsciously wanted to drink some wine to give himself courage.

Song Xuan didn't stop him, it didn't matter.

When Shi Yannian wiped the wine stains from his chin:

"Twelve Lang, just say it. Even if I die immediately, I will drink some wine before I die."

"Do you sometimes experience loss of appetite, fatigue, or diarrhea?"

Shi Yannian thought for a moment and said, "Yes."

Song Xuan then asked, "Do you feel pain here after drinking alcohol, and does it come back?"

"Yes."

Shi Yannian never told anyone else about this, as he just thought it was a normal reaction after drinking.

"Do you experience anxiety or tremors when you're not drinking?"

"Yeah." Shi Yannian's voice became smaller and smaller.

Song Xuan nodded: "Brother Shi, do you want to drink to death for ten years, or do you want to live a few more years?"

After hearing what Song Xuan said, Shi Yannian subconsciously felt thirsty and took another sip of wine:

"Shi Er Lang, don't scare me. Is it really that serious?"

Song Xuan took the cold drink and took a sip:
"Brother Shi, when do you think I, Song Twelve, like to tell lies?"

Shi Yannian swallowed his saliva again, feeling a little dazed.

Those who watched the show also realized the seriousness of the situation.

No one would doubt Song Xuan's medical skills.

Not everyone in this world has the ability to save a dying person, and even use the method of drawing blood to prolong his life!
"Do you still want to take the imperial examination?"

Song Xuan put down the cup in his hand:
"Do you feel that your memory has declined? Every time you memorize something, you think you have memorized it, but after a few days you can't remember it clearly, and you even don't recognize some words at first glance?"

Imperial examination!

Shi Yannian was a failed scholar, so he always indulged in drinking, and drank heavily.

But I never got good grades in every exam.

Now Song Xuan had hit the nail on the head: "Shi Er Lang, is there any hope for me?"

"Hopeless!"

"what?"

Now not only Shi Yannian was stunned, but Zhang Fangping and others were also stunned.

Why is there no hope?

Song Xuan laughed heartily: "My point is, Brother Shi, there's no hope for you to pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi."

The solemn atmosphere just now disappeared, even though everyone's goal was to get a good score on the exam.

But this road is too crowded and not everyone can succeed.

This matter has always been a knot in Shi Yannian's heart. Now when he heard Song Xuan's assertion, a trace of loneliness flashed through his heart.

"Hey, Shi Er Lang is good at bluffing."

Wang Tai felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he tried to make up for it.

"What I said is true." Song Xuan said seriously:
"Brother Shi's body has been damaged by his excessive drinking, and not everyone can cure it."

"It's like the contents of the Analects. Everyone will forget them, but Brother Shi will forget them even faster. I'm afraid that if he continues to study hard now, there's no hope. Instead, it will only damage his body faster."

"Brother Shi, if you still want to do something for the people of the Song Dynasty, then you should quit drinking and join the Third Class."

"Of course, if Brother Shi still wants to be a free and easy wine immortal, then I won't say much."

"Whether you want to be an upright man or a free spirit who relies heavily on alcohol, it all depends on you, Brother Shi."

"Because the final decision lies in Brother Shi's own hands. It's better to control your own destiny. Other people's suggestions are bullshit!"

Song Xuan stood up and went to the bathroom to wash his hands and run some water.

No one expected Song Xuan to say such inhumane words.

Shi Yannian was worried and drank a lot of wine.

Others can't say much.

It is said that Song Renzong Zhao Zhen valued his talent so much that he personally advised Shi Yannian to quit drinking, but it was of no use and he died of alcoholism.

Wang Tai and Shi Yannian were old acquaintances, so he quickly advised:

"Brother Manqing, you are so lucky to have met Shi Erlang who can diagnose and treat you."

"Otherwise, if this continues for a long time, how will you be able to display your talents and let the world know about them?"

"Yes, we must not hide our illness and avoid seeing a doctor!"

Snapped.

Shi Yannian threw the wine jar in his hand to the ground and said viciously:

"From today on, I, Shi Yannian, will quit drinking!"

"it is good."

Wang Tai immediately took the lead in cheering.

Zhang Fangping walked over and patted Shi Yannian on the shoulder: "He's a real man."

"He's a man."

"That's what a real man should do."

Shi Yannian was encouraged by his classmates and couldn't help laughing for a moment.

He is actually quite sensitive inside.

The glory of his ancestors has always been expected to be continued by him.

Both the family and themselves are eager to revive the family by passing the imperial examination.

But Shi Yannian felt that he was really not up to the mark. He took the exam again and again, and he was discouraged, but there was still no hope.

In fact, when he took the test this time, he felt that his answers were very ugly.

Song Xuan had just directly pointed out his inner shortcomings, which surprised him very much.

Can we find out many psychological reasons when we see a doctor?
Song Twelve is indeed a miracle doctor who can save lives from the hands of the King of Hell!

"Twelve Lang."

Shi Yannian saw Song Xuan coming out of the toilet and asked hurriedly, "Do you think I can be saved?"

"Quit drinking!"

"Gone?"

Shi Yannian felt that he should take some medicine.

"If you don't stop drinking, no medicine in the world will work."

Song Xuan did not leave Shi Yannian any room for maneuver.

"You really can't drink a drop?"

Song Xuan ignored Shi Yannian and walked over to take over Jiao Ming's grilling of skewers.

Shi Yannian went over and fanned him: "Just now I swore in front of all my classmates that from today on, I will give up drinking!"

"Oh."

Song Xuan nodded: "My usual thinking is that some people don't even care about their own lives."

"As a spectator, I won't be too naive and tell others what to do. Life is your own, and everyone has the right to choose how to live their life. Of course, this is an ideal situation."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Shi Yannian's face at Song Xuan's sarcastic words.

"Shi Er Lang, do you think my alcohol addiction is too severe and there's no way I can quit?"

"You have an addictive habit. I really don't have any confidence in you!" Song Xuan turned the mutton skewers over:
"Besides, I've always believed that doing something better than saying it is not easy."

Shi Yannian had just made up his mind, but to actually put it into practice, he still had to see if he could do it.

After all, anyone can talk big.

Bao Zheng standing by was even somewhat thankful that he just needed to eat more vegetables and exercise more, otherwise it would be difficult for him to have children when he got older.

The filial Bao Zheng attached great importance to the matter of offspring.

So he listened to Song Xuan's words immediately.

Especially when it comes to alcohol, he has never been interested in it.

Wang Tai and Lu Lejian, who were relatively uninhibited in matters between men and women, became much more obedient after being admonished by Song Xuan.

Even Han Qi was asked by Song Xuan to exercise more to avoid getting hemorrhoids from sitting for a long time.

"Hey, this mutton kebab is really delicious."

Fan Xiang had been guarding the oven and took off his clothes directly.

He was shirtless and eating lamb skewers sprinkled with spices, and he immediately praised the dish.

"Did I let you taste it and see if it's cooked?"

"It's cooked, it's cooked."

Fan Xiang had already eaten a lot when Jiao Ming was roasting it.

Everyone in this group had their pulse taken, so Fan Xiang ate a lot.

I have never eaten such delicious lamb in my life.

Of course, he has never eaten mutton in his life!

"We can't let Fan Xiang eat it all by himself."

Zhang Fangping shouted and went straight over to grab a few bunches and held them in his hands to reward himself.

"fragrant."

"It's so fragrant!"

Even the prime minister's son and the wealthy Lu family had never tasted the way Song Xuan sprinkled cumin on grilled lamb skewers.

While eating, he asked Song Xuan if he had any secret recipe.

Song Xuan snorted and laughed. "You ate my mutton skewers and you still want to take away the exclusive secret recipe. How shameless!" Song Xuan handed a handful to Zhu Yu and said, "Eat more. You are a little anemic and you get tired easily. It will be difficult for you to take the exam."

Zhu Yu took it and thanked him carefully. He remembered that Song Xuan asked him to eat some red dates in the future and not to eat too many at one time.

Everyone laughed and started talking about all sorts of things.

After all, there are outsiders here, so it’s nice to share what you have seen and heard.

In the end, it was still the stories told by Wang Gui, the wandering wanderer, that were the most attractive.

Especially this group of scholars, who doesn’t dream of having martial arts skills and being able to punish evildoers?

After all, sometimes the more you lack something, the more you want to flaunt it.

"Shi Er Lang, I've thought it through. I will never drink again in this life. Since I have no chance of passing the imperial examination, I won't worry about it anymore."

Shi Yannian whispered beside him, "As long as I quit drinking, is there still hope of being saved?"

"Of course. I'll teach you a set of Ba Duan Jin later. You can practice it when you have free time. It's guaranteed to be effective and can even prolong your life."

Upon hearing the words of longevity, Shi Yannian immediately perked up: "Then I must stop drinking and study hard."

After all, it was Song Shier who displayed his divine power and extended the lifespan of others.

Shi Yannian believed this kind of words very much.

Wang Tai on the side joked:

"Brother, why don't you call Song Twelve your foster father? He is like your adopted father!"

"Hey, aren't I your adopted parent?" Song Xuan snorted and laughed:
"If you don't listen to my advice and become withered in the future, I won't be able to do anything about it."

"Hahaha."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Shi Yannian also laughed a few times:

"It's not that I don't want to, but I still need to discuss this matter with my father."

"Oh, that's not necessary."

Song Xuan waved his hands quickly: "I haven't gotten married yet, what's the point of wanting an adopted son? Wait until I get married."

"Hahaha."

Everyone laughed again.

……

Urgent report.

The court had not yet received news of the official being killed in the street in Yingtian Prefecture.

The news about this matter was completely placed on the desk of Zhao Zhen, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Gao Zunfu put a lot of thought into it and didn't dare to hide anything.

I originally thought that sending undercover agents into the killer circle could effectively protect Song Xuan and complete the task assigned by His Majesty.

I never thought that Song Xuan himself sent an undercover agent to infiltrate, and it turned out that only one of the three killers was real.

I thought the matter was over.

Unexpectedly, the real killer escaped and stabbed the magistrate of Yingtian Prefecture again.

But it would be better if this matter could be stopped now that it has developed to this point.

But Song Xuan showed his miraculous skills and took out half of the lives of the other two people to give life to Gu Zimo who was about to die.

The fact that Gu Zimo is still alive is proof of this.

Zhao Zhen looked at the contents of the pile and his eyes widened immediately.

He really didn't expect the revenge against the Dou family. It turned out that Song Xuan had been prepared for it.

When Zhao Zhen saw the two undercover agents plotting against each other, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

In particular, Song Xuan used two bone flowers to threaten the undercover agent of the Imperial City Bureau, asking him to kneel down and beg for mercy so that he would not have to break one of his legs.

Zhao Zhen glanced at the simple portrait of Song Xuan and really didn't expect that his twelfth brother would grow up to be so majestic.

Look at your own arms.

Zhao Zhen lifted it up and took a look; it was still a little thin!

Even that ugly woman couldn't stop it.

He felt very disgusted when he thought about the person named Guo who would become his queen.

Zhao Zhen resented in his heart that his mother did not keep her word and was partial to her ex-husband's son.

Why should I be allowed to choose someone, and then after I choose one, the person is taken away from me!
It’s better not to let yourself choose, so as to avoid resentment.

Zhao Zhen has always been brooding over the matter of his queen, and he doesn't want to get close to the woman surnamed Guo.

She will never have children in her life!

Zhao Zhen had already made up his mind secretly.

But that woman relied on the support of the Queen Mother and kept a close eye on herself in the palace.

Zhao Zhen was so angry that he felt extremely wronged, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.

"unlucky."

Zhao Zhen secretly spat and immediately drove the annoying woman out of his mind, and continued to read the news about Song Xuan written by Gao Zunfu.

"Gu Zimo, an official appointed by the imperial court, chose to take action when Song Xuan was taking the test. He truly has a sinister mind!"

Zhao Zhen snorted, but fortunately Song Xuan was well prepared, so he was not killed.

And there is the Dou family. Dou Chou is dead, but they are still causing trouble.

Do you really think I won't get angry?

Zhao Zhen thought angrily, but now he couldn't even decide which woman to sleep with. He was really upset and wished he could grow up immediately so that he could rule the country himself.

Who will be able to restrain me then?
The emperor Zhao Zhen now feels really aggrieved.

Seeing how majestic Song Xuan was outside, he naturally felt envious.

Twelve Brother has not changed his bad temper after all these years!
I don’t know if he still remembers me?
Zhao Zhen flipped the book open with his mind wandering and continued reading. He saw that Song Xuan used some magical method to save Gu Zimo, who was judged to be beyond saving by Doctor Wang.

Zhao Zhen's heart could not calm down for a long time.

The key point is that Song Xuan used this method to extract other people's lives to replenish Gu Zimo's life, and he had no intention of avoiding people at all.

Zhao Zhen frowned. Could it be that his twelfth brother had really learned some immortal skills from a "Bodhi Patriarch" in the past few years?

Otherwise it can't be explained at all!

The most important thing is that Gao Zunfu only wrote about what he heard and did not see it with his own eyes.

If Your Majesty wants to know the details, you need to ask Prefect Yan and Minister Cao.

The two of them are the witnesses, so of course there is no problem in asking Doctor Wang.

Just in case, he also sent people to monitor the other two people who had half their lives taken away.

Zhao Zhen was satisfied with Gao Zunfu's meticulous thinking. After all, this kind of ghost and god method was really unheard of.

Moreover, even a doctor like Dr. Wang, who possessed extremely high family skills, did not acknowledge Song Xuan's methods.

So what's there to doubt?

The Song Emperor Zhao Zhen wanted to know very much what method Song Xuan used, but he couldn't make it clear.

We can only wait for Prefect Yan to report the incident of an official being stabbed in the street, and then bring this matter up after the Imperial City Bureau investigates it.

inappropriate!

Zhao Zhen thought that his twelfth brother had such skills, and once the news spread, he would definitely be coveted by others.

That would be bad!

Zhao Zhen was walking around the room worriedly, at this moment.

The door was pushed open.

Empress Guo came in and bowed:
"Your Majesty, it's late. Don't worry about state affairs. It's time to rest."

"Who let you in? Get out."

Queen Guo's face froze. She really didn't expect to be so cold-shouldered.

She was also very young, and immediately lost her composure.

Zhao Zhen naturally walked to his desk and started to pack up his things to prevent her from seeing his secret.

Even though she was the queen of the Song Dynasty, the emperor would not share any secrets with him.

Empress Guo wanted to step forward, and then she said again:
"Stand there."

"His Majesty."

Queen Guo wanted to act coquettishly and take him back to bed, but she still didn't stop.

"I tell you to stand there!"

Empress Guo was immediately at a loss.

Zhao Zhen had just given orders that no one was allowed to come in without his permission.

"Yan Wenying."

Zhao Zhen shouted, and saw a young eunuch kneeling at the door:

"What I said is no longer effective?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Yan Wenying knelt on the ground and kowtowed, but he stopped him.

However, Empress Guo ordered his men to slap him several times, and the corners of his mouth were swollen.

In addition, Queen Guo has always been domineering in the palace, so who would dare to stop him?

"Who hit you?"

Yan Wenying didn't dare to name anyone, and quickly said that it was dark and his eyes were blocking the road.

"How dare you assault my people? How dare you disobey my words? Do you even take me seriously?"

Faced with Zhao Zhen's angry words, Queen Guo was also stunned.

It was the first time she saw such a good-tempered emperor get angry, even if his voice was not loud.

Yan Wenying knew that the emperor was so angry that his arms were shaking, which was enough to prove that the emperor was really angry.

Because he always knew that the emperor was benevolent and filial, generous and kind to others, and never showed his emotions on his face.

Queen Guo's behavior completely touched the emperor's bottom line.

Relying on the Queen Mother's favor, she repeatedly ignored his words and disobeyed him.

Zhao Zhen tried to calm himself down, and finally just waved his hand softly to maintain his dignity:

"It's late, Queen, please go back and rest. I still have government affairs to attend to."
