Chapter 077 Cordyceps

When Wang asked Zhao Yu, he was also stunned for a moment. He turned his head and asked Li Yan, the eunuch beside him, "Li Yan, how many people with the surname of Sun in Yintai Division?"

Li Yan hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, Sun Chao is the only one surnamed Sun in Yintai."

"Yes, just this one." Zhao Yu said with a smile, "Look at my memory."

"It's not that the emperor has a bad memory. There are so many officials under the emperor, how can he remember how many surnames there are?" Li Yan said for Zhao Yu,

The eunuch is quite good at talking. Wang looked at him, but he was just a eunuch in his twenties. He spoke in a typical eunuch cavity. The eunuch in the palace was basically not too awkward, but Li Yan looked very pale,

Zhao Yu recalled, "Brother Wang, you asked this question just now, and you really stuck me, but the official family may not be like what he said. I know this Sun Chao. His father is Sun Gu, a scholar of Wenguan Hall. If I remember correctly, his father was also a businessman of Yintai Division a few years ago."

"The emperor is talking about Sun Gu, who is known as Mr. Baihui."

"I think he is Mr. Baihui. At that time, Tang Jie and Wu Kui almost started in the Xuanhui Academy in order to impeach Zhang Piguang. Sun Gu was lively even if he looked at it and did not persuade him. If the official family hadn't just passed by, the Xuanhui Academy could have been demolished by the two people, but then again, that is, Sun Gu was in Yintai. Si has been there for the longest time. Basically, he stayed there during the Xining period, which is also a miracle.

Wang knew that the officials of Yintai Division would not serve for too long, and most of them also served in other official positions. Generally, a term of office or promoted to the governor of the government, or still held his own position. There were really not many people like Sun Gu. Wang immediately thought that as soon as he saw Sun Chao, he could directly bring a promotion to the emperor. It seemed that silver The power of the Taisi is still very large. This clue should also be checked. According to Zhao Yu's meaning, Sun Gu is relatively smooth. He may not bring it, but if there is a matter of Yintaisi here, Sun Gu will definitely know,

Thinking of this, the king smiled and said, "Dong during the Qingli period, Emperor Renzong's implementation of the new policy was only one year and four months later. It took you ten years for you to implement the new policy. These are also ten miracles. In contrast, Sun Gu's time in the Yintai Division is a little witch."

Zhao Yu knew that Wang was deliberately sarcastically. He smiled bitterly and said, "In the blink of an eye for more than ten years, how can you know the hardships of the officials when you are not in the court?" In one sentence, he blocked the words of the king first, and said hurriedly, "Now let's talk about what's wrong with you coming to see me, my lord."

If we discuss the change of law, it will not be over. Wang didn't want to mention more, so he answered Zhao Yu's question: "I'm here to resign from the emperor."

"Resign, you just came back, and where are you going?"

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that I'm going to help you pick medicine for alchemy? If you don't take this medicine, why won't you fly here by yourself?"

Zhao Yu frowned. He was not reluctant to part with the king, but it was a little uneasy to let the king float outside.

"Just say what medicine you need. There are so many precious medicinal materials in the imperial pharmacy. You can take whatever you want."

Wang knew for a long time that Zhao Yu would say so. He said with a serious face, "The more expensive the medicinal materials, the better. In all dynasties, any monarch who wants to prolong his life did not have these good medicinal herbs. The key is to choose the right one but not the expensive one. What's more, the medicinal herbs for the emperor to enter the palace are all qualified and sell well, but there are some medicinal herbs. It's ugly."

Zhao Yu shook his head in question,

"The emperor hasn't heard of cordyceps, have you?"

"What kind of worm grass."

Wang Bian recalled that Cordyceps sinensis was first contained in Wu Yiluo (1757) "This Herbs from the Beginning". He was sure that Zhao Yu had never heard of it, so he said, "The cordyceps and the cordyceps are two different species. The cordyceps are the caterpillars of an insect. In the process of growth, it is invaded by the strains of the cordyceps, and the cordyceps grows in the body of the cordyceps. It caused the death of the cordyceps. When summer comes, the fruit of the summer grass grows outside the body of the cordyceps, just like the cordyceps grow into summer grass.

"Wow~" Li Yan almost didn't vomit when he listened. Zhao Yu glanced at him. Li Yan quickly swallowed half of the dry vomiting: "What the prince said is so disgusting. How can the emperor eat this kind of thing?"

"You eunuch, what do you know? It will take three or four years for this cordyceps to grow, and it grows in the upper reaches of the three rivers of the Jinsha River, the Lancang River and the Nu River. There is no land in the Central Plains at all. If it hadn't been for the emperor's dragon body, I would have gone to the barbarian land."

Zhao Yu didn't understand, but he also heard Wang's reprimand of Li Yan just now. Now it's not easy to say anything more: "Well, the upper reaches of the three rivers have reached the land of Tubo Huigu, so Brother Wang is going to go to Tubo."

"I'm going to Go to Korea."

At this time, Zhao Yu was a little confused. Originally, he thought that Wang was going to Tubo. He was upset because Tubo was not restrained recently, so when Wang just said it, Zhao Yu suddenly had a little wary of Wang, but unexpectedly he didn't go there at all. "Don't you want to find cordyceps? Why do you want to go to Korea?"

"I'm just an example of Cordyceps sinensis, but the medicine is not collected at the moment. The emperor's dragon body has to be recuperated first and then extended, so I take the medicine for the emperor's conditioning first."

Zhao Yu was puzzled. If Wang said to go to Tubo directly, he would think more, but Wang didn't go to Tubo, and Zhao Yu muttered, "Well, Brother Wang, you'd better go to find the Cordyceps sinensis first. The officials also want to see the freshness."

"No, it's so far away, and I heard that Tubo is very chaotic now. I won't go."

The more Wang said so, the more Zhao Yu wanted him to go: "Just because of the chaos, you need Brother Wang to go. The adopted son of Tubo Dong Yan is also Brother Wang's sworn brother. You should go to see your brother and find medicinal herbs for the official family by the way."

"Your Majesty, don't be blind to me. I knew when I was in Yongle City that our court had a bad relationship with Tubo after Wang Shao's death. Otherwise, how could Xixia attack Yonglecheng? Tubo had no one to help us. I won't go."

Zhao Yu's face sank down, and he didn't have any emperor's majesty beside the king. "If you don't go, how can you help the officials collect medicine?"

"I'll go when the matter of Tubo is settled."

"Then just go and solve it for the official."

"I'm taking medicine for the emperor. Besides, let's have something to say first. I don't participate in political affairs. I said that if I don't go now, I won't go."

"Hey, the official branch can't move you." Zhao Yu's dragon book case,

The king was not polite and patted the armrest of the chair: "There is no joke. I will definitely not go to defend the emperor's oracle. Otherwise, I would have said that I would not participate in political affairs, and now I have been sent to Tubo. People will say that the emperor's orders and evening changes."

This sentence faintly pierced Zhao Yu with a thorn. In the past ten years, I have changed a lot of things, especially how many times the ten-year change of Xining has been back and forth overnight,

The more people emphasize something, the more they are afraid of what they are. The more they are afraid of, the more they want to prove that they are not like this. For example, at present, Zhao Yu is most afraid of changing these four words in the morning and evening, so there is no way for Wang to provoke him so much.

Li Yan was very surprised when he looked left and right. He had been in the palace for nearly ten years, and he had been around the emperor for three or four years. For the first time, he saw someone patting against the emperor. Now he looked righteous and awe-inspiring by the king, and he didn't give in at all. Then he looked at Zhao Yu. After patting the table, he still looked at the king stiffly on it. Looking at Zhao Yu, he suddenly fell down and said, "How can the official family change his orders? I also trust you, Brother Wang. It seems that Tubo is not under the control of the court now. The official family can't think of someone who is more capable than the prince for a moment. If this question can't be solved, how can you take the medicine if you don't go?"

Li Yan's psychology understands that the emperor is crazy about medicine,

Looking at Wang, he said slowly, "There is nothing to worry about Tubo. If he had been fighting with Wang Shao's Pingrong strategy over the years, he would have seen the results long ago, but the key is that he didn't persist, so it's why it's hot and cold with Tubo."

"Brother Wang, don't talk nonsense. I don't want Brother Wang to participate in political affairs. I'm chatting with our brothers. How should I deal with your brother like your third brother?"

Zhao Yu's words are as usual, and it is indeed enough to fall. Of course, Wang knows that he can't force Zhao Yu too tightly. It is for outsiders to show that he doesn't participate in politics. If anything happens, he doesn't know how to fight for his own part in the future.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about this. Isn't Dong Yan still there now? Tubo has been estranged from the court over the years. I think my third brother must have an idea in his heart. Think about it, Ali Gu is taking care of this Tubo inside and outside. Dong Yan is old and seriously ill, but if our Song Dynasty does not admit Ali Gu, he will vomit no matter what he does. The people accuse him that you don't support him. Can he support you?

Zhao Yu seemed to hear something and said, "Brother Wang means to add Ali's bones."

"If you want to seal it, don't just seal Ali's bones. You might as well Feng Dong's felt with Ali's bones, which can not only reflect the benevolence of my Song Dynasty, but also improve the status of Ali's bones by the way. It can also let Ali's bones know the emperor's affection. Maybe the boy understands and pay tribute to him well. Isn't it all beautiful? "

Only Zhao Yu raised his hand and patted the bookcase happily: "Yes, why is it so simple when it comes to Brother Wang? Brother Wang, how do you think it can be sealed?"

The king said without thinking, "You will give an edict to Dong Ye, the leader of Xibo Michuan, as the prince of Wuwei, and Dong Ye's adopted son Ali Gu as the regimental training envoy, and Dong Ye's son to bully Ding as the assassin."

Zhao Yu smiled and pointed to Wang: "Brother Wang, you are also so bad."

Aligu is a regimental training envoy, which is equivalent to a regimental envoy with a lower status than a jiedushi, which is equivalent to a defense envoy. It is an official position specializing in military affairs. According to the official level of the Song Dynasty, it is also an eight-grade official. However, Feng Dong's son is a five-grade official position. It seems that the official rank is three grades worse, but the regimental training envoy is in charge of the military power. , but the assassin is an idle job for idle people,

"Anyway, it's also my third brother. Don't be partial to yourself. Your Majesty, you hope that Ali Gu can understand the mystery here and send someone to pay tribute as soon as possible. That's when I go to Tibet to pick cordyceps for the emperor."

Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Wang was still careful. In this way, his suspicion of Wang's scruples was slightly reduced,
