The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 52: My friend is the mayor

Zhangzi meat has a strong fishy smell. In order to cook the Zhangzi meat, Yun Yanhui turned out the seasonings such as star anise, dogwood and garlic.

Such a big deer is enough to pack a few dishes. Yun Yanhui processed the deer and divided it into meat and bone-in meat. The meat was used for stir-frying, and the bone-in meat was stewed in soup.

Cut the deer meat into pieces, steam them first with water, then add cornel, green onion, ginger, star anise, green onion and other seasonings on the other side, add oil and stir-fry until fragrant. After the deer meat is steamed, stir-fry it with clear oil, add salt, sauce, and rice wine, cut some bamboo shoots in the middle, and stir-fry until it tastes delicious, then pour the previously fried soup base on top and cook for a while, and then it is ready to serve.

As for the meat with the bones, it should be simmered slowly until the meat is thoroughly cooked and melts in the mouth. Add spices to remove the fishy smell, so the taste is extremely delicious.

In fact, there is another way to eat it raw. Like sashimi, deer and sashimi are both Jurchen's favorites. But considering that this place is ancient, they don't eat raw meat very much, so they gave up deer for health reasons.

Zhao Yunchu followed Yun Yan back, watching him peel the skin, remove the bones, chop the meat and stir fry it, it was a pleasure.

Geer Yan is a staunch practitioner of "never tired of eating fines and fines". He always pursues only more refined food but not the most exquisite. He cooked two dishes for one afternoon.

The meat of the deer is warm, and it can supplement deficiency. It is suitable for a person like Bao Zheng who is recovering from a serious illness. Yun Yanhui tangled and distributed a soup, and asked the brothers in the temple to send it to Bao Zheng.

He thought about it, Bao Zheng can even see ghosts, I wonder if he will find out that he is transmigrating...

I've seen you so many times that it seems useless to think about it now.

Yunyan scratched her head back and took out the two dishes.

Today, Zheng Ping and Fu Yunfeng went to the temple fair together. When the sun went down, Fang returned hand in hand, sighing that he could smell the fragrance outside the house.

Shuangyi and Xiaobao didn't know when they came back. Anyway, there were many dishes, so Yunyan kept some of them warm on the stove, and everyone ate the rest first.

One is spicy, the other is delicious, and Yun Yanhui also fried a side dish, and the four of them ate very fragrantly.

On the other side, Bao Zheng drank Zhangzi broth again and couldn't help sighing.

Bao Xing asked, "Why did you sigh?"

Bao Zheng pointed to the broth, and said sadly: "I live in Xiangguo Temple now, and the younger brother of the Yun family always presents me with food, all of which are delicious. If he leaves the temple one day, no matter how hard it is to eat, wouldn't it hurt people's hearts? ."

Bao Xing couldn't help muttering, why did you start to feel hurt before you left, is it necessary? I asked him to tell me that Lang Jun liked Yan Ge'er's dishes so much because he ate fish made by Yan Ge'er when he woke up from a serious illness, so he was deeply impressed.

Bao Xing persuaded: "There are so many delicious foods in the world. Without the younger brother of the Yun family, Lang Jun can find other delicacies."

Bao Zheng had to reluctantly nodded, thinking of Yun Yanhui's ability to handle affairs, it was even more pity.

Bao Zheng lived in Daxiangguo Temple for three months. Every day, he played chess with Liran, talked about poetry, tried the novel dishes from Yunyanhui there, or collected delicious delicacies. Feeling that the days have passed, it is actually very happy.

Until one day, when Bao Zheng was playing chess with Lingran again, he was suddenly visited by the prince of the court. This husband does not mean the husband of later generations. It originally refers to the prime minister, but gradually high-ranking officials can be respected as the husband.

Wang Zhi was the prime minister of the dynasty, so he was naturally called the Shang-gong. However, the power is not as great as that of the previous prime minister, and only belongs to the top executive. The powers of supervision, military administration and finance belong to Taijian (Yushi Taijianyuan), the Privy Council and the Ministry of Household, Yantie, and Duzhi.

However, in general, he is still a great character. Although it is a bull, I have not only been to the Daxiangguo Temple once or twice. It's just that this time is very different. As soon as he came, he stared at Bao Zheng and asked about his identity.

Bao Zheng explained his origins clearly, including the weird Wupen case.

Facts have proved that the old monk's clear reaction calmed down a bit, and he actually believed Bao Zheng. This Wang Xianggong didn't believe in Wupen at all and could open his mouth to complain.

However, he actually came to Daxiangguo Temple to find Bao Zheng. A while ago, the official family had a dream about a person's face. After waking up, he painted it and ordered someone to look for it. The people below searched for a long time, only to find that this person was in the Daxiangguo Temple, so there was Wang Qian's trip to the Daxiangguo Temple.

Wang Yan's trip was to help the official family find someone, so even if he didn't believe it, but seeing that Bao Zheng was exactly the same as the person on the dragon map, he had to take him back to the prime minister's mansion to be summoned by the official family.

After Wang Qian left, Yun Yanhui also got the news, and it was the March period that Clearly said.

This time Yunyan exploded back.

Damn, the old monk is really good at fortune-telling. No wonder he used to say that he had closed his eyes, and he insisted on accepting him as a disciple. Maybe he would have arrived at that time, and he could increase the income of the temple when he arrived at the Daxiangguo Temple.

Yun Yanhui immediately killed Dao Ran, forcing him to make another plan for his family.

Understandable and speechless for a long time, he gave Yunyan a divination, and then said: "All are blessed people, Kangshun will live in peace, but brother Yan, you seem to have a disaster this year!"

Yun Yanhui did not expect that even a hexagram could be calculated on a whim, so she immediately said vigilantly, "What calamity?"

"I don't know this. This calamity is very important to you, but I don't worry about your life, but it will have a great impact on your future." Because there is no life worry, I don't seem to be very worried .

"That's it..." Yun Yan thought back and thought that it might be the Peach Blossom Tribulation, wouldn't that have a great impact on the future, let alone, he was really liked by the little ladies, "Then I Just go with it."

Understood, he hesitated for a moment and said, "In this way, in a few days, we will hold a ceremony, and you will officially worship me and be my disciple."

Yun Yanhui was astonished and immediately understood that this move might be because of his calamity. He knew that he was no ordinary monk now. If the two of them officially crossed the road and became masters and apprentices, they would like to have a relationship with Yun Yanhui. Must be used for shelter.

Thanks to Mingran's care over the years, since he made this request, it was for his own good, of course Yun Yanhui would not refuse, even if he agreed, he was just a little confused, "Our little treasure is also your disciple, He’s still a beginner before me. If I go to apprentice in a few days, wouldn’t I still be Xiaobao’s younger brother? I always feel that something is wrong.”

Understanding that it was Yun Yanhui's business, I only thought of this when I heard him say it, and I felt funny, "Yes, but this is not possible. There is a priority for entry, so you can only call Senior Brother Xiaobao." /

"Alas..." Yun Yan recalled their family's seniority and couldn't help but sigh.

Think about it, Shuang Yi is older than him, but he calls Shuang Yi a younger sister, and Shuang Yi is often called a brother and a younger brother. Xiaobao is younger than him, so he should call him brother, but now he has to call him brother Xiaobao. This is not to mention the Zheng Ling who often screams without big or small... What a gibberish!

……

Three days later, news came from Kaifeng Mansion that Bao Zheng was taken by Wang Yan to meet the official family. He didn't know how to make the right decision, but he won the trust of the official family, his fame was restored, and he was promoted to Kaifeng. Fu Shaoyin, awarded the Bachelor of Yin and Yang.

The Shao Yin of Kaifeng Prefecture is a very important position. On the bright side, it seems that he is only the second in command, and there is also a Governor of Kaifeng above. However, in fact, the governors of Kaifeng are all imperial families. For example, the first emperor Zhenzong had been the governor of Kaifeng before he ascended the throne.

It was also because the emperor was an official that he did not have a prefect of Kaifeng in the future. The actual leader of the prefecture was either Shaoyin or an official temporarily appointed, that is, "the right to know the affairs of the Kaifeng prefecture".

Know means management, and authority means authority and, temporarily, temporarily manage the affairs of Kaifeng. Like Ouyang Xiu and Fan Zhongyan, when they were the bosses of Kaifeng Mansion, they all knew the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion. Such an important position equivalent to the mayor of the capital, sitting on it actually means that the official family has to be reused.

Bao Zheng was able to gain the trust of the officials and suddenly rose from a small county magistrate to this position. How unreasonable is this at such a young age, and how thick are his golden fingers?

Anyway, Yun Yanhui is very moved by this unreasonable...

After Bao Zheng entered the Kaifeng Mansion, he came to visit Daxiangguo Temple, and once again thanked him for his life-saving grace. Not only did his attitude not change because he became an official, but he became even more affectionate. He also specially thanked the people at the beginning, Yun Yanhui, and others for inspiring him again and again.

Being a friend of the current official in charge, not to mention that Bao Da will bend the law for personal gain, but it will definitely be easier for Daxiangguo Temple to conduct various matters with Kaifeng House in the future.

Yunyan went back to inquire about it, and found that the people really gossip. It didn't take long for the Wupen case to spread to the market, and some disciples from Zhangshanren deliberately used materials to say that this case was coming. .

Bao Zheng's rather fanciful title of "Yin-Yang Bachelor" was also said to be because the officials knew that he could understand Yin and Yang and was good at judging ghosts, so he gave these two words as a special case.

In a short time, Bao Zheng also became a native of Tokyo, and gained more attention than the previous top leaders of Kaifeng.

……

Unconsciously, this year's Daxiangguo Temple International Food Festival is about to start again.

After this year's development, the Daxiangguo Temple International Food Festival has become one of the symbols of Tokyo, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger. In this session, Yun Yanhui needs to put up notices and hire temporary workers.

In the past, it was enough to use the monks in my own temple, but if the scale is large, it is not enough in some highly technical aspects. After all, there are so many industries in the temple that need to be maintained, so it is necessary to temporarily hire some accountants and clerks. Class work for a period of time.

Preliminary exams are screened by other colleagues of the festival and recommended by various guilds and intermediaries. When it was time for the re-examination, Yun Yanhui and several core members took the exam together. They were all important positions and had to be cautious.

Previously, Yun Yanhui had officially apprenticed to the apprentice, and became a lay disciple. Now it's totally fine to call each other apprentices and brothers.

A nephew came to inform Yun Yan to go back to attend the re-examination. He was looking at the food list for this food festival. When he heard it, he got up quickly, tidied up his clothes, and went to the Chanyuan where the interview was held.

Yun Yanhui was sitting in a row drinking tea with the other four senior brothers. Before the interviewer came in, a senior said: "I just chatted with those who took the test outside, but one of them was very good. Scholar, even though he has failed many times, when I talk to him, I feel that he is still very capable, but his luck is not good."

"What's your name? If it's not too bad, let's talk about it later. If you have a good personality, you can accept it." Yun Yan replied and took a sip of tea.

The senior said: "That's great, I have already asked, this person's surname is Gongsun Mingce."

"Pfft!!" Yun Yan took a sip of tea back and sprayed that senior brother's face.
