Chapter 1001 Aspirants

Chapter 1001: Those who are determined

Su Che said with a smile: "This kind of knowledge is not as good as that of the Goryeo royal family. By the way, Mingrun, do you know that Fu Mingjue, the daughter of Quanzhou businessman Fu Xuan, was accepted as a concubine by Prince Yong of Jilin because of her meritorious service in presenting cabbage and radish seeds.

A few months ago, the Korean envoy Jin Ti paid tribute and said that Fu Mingxuan had given birth to a son, and now he has been made a concubine."

Su You was stunned as he held the glass of wine. Jin Qiao'er from Jixi'erxiang was originally a famous official of Goryeo. Later, his family fortune collapsed and he lived in Bianjing, living in dust and mud. Now he has managed to survive and become a distinguished figure in Goryeo.

The relatives of Goryeo were so arrogant and domineering that even the King of Goryeo could not control them, so they could only resort to win-win tactics. Fu Mingxuan was able to fight her way out of the harem filled with relatives. Sitong Company supported her through business, and now she has finally achieved some results.

.

Prince Yong of Jilin was Wang Hui's third son. Hearing that the Five Classics were masters of history, Wang Hui once praised him privately: "You will be the one who will revive the royal family in the future."

At that time, it was just a casual move, but now it seems that it can be continued.

Concubine Fu Xian, and this child with nominal Han ancestry, were the natural agents of the Song Dynasty's interests in Goryeo.

No one knew that Su Zhe's casual words had already sent Su You's thoughts far away. Hachigong asked Zhang Dunli for a dish: "This is delicious. Please try it, my consort. I don't know where Mingrun learned this dish. I have never learned it before."

I’ve never seen him do it.”

Zhang Dunli picked a piece and put it in his mouth. It was crisp and sour. It tasted really good. He picked up the wine glass and said, "I have to offer you a toast, Hachigong. This wine is not good enough. What is Mingrun?"

Only then did Su You come to his senses: "Oh, these are herring intestines."

Zhang Dunli's face suddenly turned pale: "Fish... fish intestines... Mingrun, is there anything else you can't eat..."

Su You asked Bian Guan and Wang Yanbi: "Can you two eat spicy mom?"

The two children nodded while holding their rice bowls.

Su You put a piece of fish intestines on the rice for each of them, and then said: "What's so strange about this? You can even eat leopard fetus and deer blood, why can't fish intestines work? I just

How do you feel?"

"Now we know that the first-class banquet is about raw seafood, and the second-class banquet is about sea delicacies. Among the eight delicacies, the fish bones and lips are actually the cartilage and skin of sharks, rays and other fish; sea cucumbers are actually lower-level sea creatures than earthworms.

; Shark fins are made from the dorsal fin, brain fin, and tail fin of large sharks; abalone and scallops are shellfish, which are the same type as river mussels; fish belly..."

He picked up a piece of fish pickle and said, "Here, it's just made from the sea fish into a dried product. It is soaked in water or oil and then put into vegetables."

“So don’t be pretentious, if you love eating it, then just eat it!”

Zhang Dunli couldn't help but pick up his chopsticks and walked away from Su Zhe, the Eighth Prince. He shook his head and said, "If you eat this for someone in the family, you will be scolded to death if you find out. It's better to change your name."

Su Zhe said: "'A guest came from afar and left me a pair of carp. I asked my son to cook the carp, and there is a ruler in the book.' The fish intestines have been prepared, as white as plain silk, and there are ready-made allusions, so it is better to call it stir-fried.

"Chi Su, isn't it an indecent name?"

"Okay! Chi Su Tu Liver Sausage, what a great name for the dish!" Zhang Dunli picked up another chopstick: "Now there is no pressure to eat! Come to Mingrun, let's go to another one."

The remaining fish head, braised fried tofu, and pickled fish tail soup are actually good dishes, but before the four-color fish balls and fried chicken feet, they are really a bit generic.

However, Bian Guo and Wang Yanbi didn't mind. They buried their two little heads in the bowl and soaked the rice in the sauce. The gills of the big fish were shaved until they were thick.

Su You said: "Uncle Zhang Qi will bring a large fleet to Beijing in the days to come. There are many novel things in it, as well as the gifts I have prepared for you. Can we go and get them together?"

The two children still nodded together.

Su You smiled at Zhang Dunli and said, "You see, Bian Guan and Yan Bi have stricter rules than us. They eat and sleep without talking. Their aunt from Shu taught them well."

Zhang Dunli threatened Wang Yanbi: "When you come to uncles, this is called informality. You will understand when you grow up."

"But your aunt and mother are very particular people, so we gentlemen can't make them unhappy for no reason. So this is a secret between us. We can't tell them when we go back, otherwise you won't be able to come here in the future."

Wang Yanbi was dumbfounded, holding the bowl and looking at Su You.

Su You made a gesture like touching a snail, and then winked at Wang Yanbi.

Wang Yanbi immediately understood that what Su You meant was that we had a bigger secret like touching snails together, and even Uncle Zhang didn't need to tell him.

Thinking of the endless happiness and delicious food at Sujiazhuangzi, I nodded repeatedly.

After dinner, Su You took two pairs of skates from the bedroom. The skates were designed to be longer so that children could get on them more easily.

I led the two children to the backyard. Su You had blocked the drainage holes with clay, and then a few centimeters of water filled the backyard. Now it has turned into a small skating rink.

Su You threw the shoes to the two children: "This activity is fun. It's called skating. You can try it out on your own and practice it. When you master it, we will gather around a big one on the playground outside!"

"If you want to play, tell the adults. You are not allowed to slide on the pond. The ice on the pond may not be strong, and falling into the ice hole is not for fun. Do you understand?"

Bian Guan held the shoes in disbelief: "Is this really fun? Why don't you sneak one in and show it to us first?"

Su You went to me again to get a pair of adult skates: "I'll show you how to skate first."

Su You always skated on roller skates in his later generations, and the way he played with skates was when he was studying in college, he played it once or twice in an indoor skating rink, but he couldn't fall off it.

After skating a few laps on the ice with one hand on his back, Bian Gu shouted excitedly: "It's so fun! Yan Bi, let's put it on and play!"

Su You snickered in his heart, "You can't master the skill if you don't throw yourself on it for a dozen times first. I'll wait for you to throw it slowly first, and then come back to me later."

I took off my skates by the patio, returned to the study, and was ready to start writing a note.

Zhang Dunli and Su Che were clicking their tongues while reading Su You's morning draft.

Seeing Su You come in, Zhang Dunli cupped his hands and said: "Mingrun is really a great talent, capable of things that others cannot do. His mind is as high as Mount Tai and the North Sea. No wonder His Majesty values ​​him so highly."

Su You sighed: "Actually, everyone will say it, but it's not necessarily true. I'm just taking the best method and hoping for the best. I have to be mentally prepared."

"The ten major things are all related to my long-term plan. If I can do one or two well, one or two can be completed, and one or two more can be afforded in the future, I will be very satisfied."

Zhang Dunli held his hands solemnly: "In the old saying of Mingrun, this is called not fighting an unprepared battle. Although Dunli is not sensitive and will not help, he will still wave the banner and shout for my brother."

Su Zhe also handed over his hand: "Uncle Yao, as the saying goes, where there is a will, things can come true. You are extremely smart and wise, and you are used to planning everything carefully before taking action. If you are not sure about something, you would rather fail than do it. But you must know that,

People who are good at adaptability often have shortcomings in ambition."

"On this point, Mr. Anshi and Your Majesty are the role models for Uncle Yao."

One word awakens the dreamer.

Su You seemed to have listed many major events, but in fact he gave Zhao Xu a very difficult multiple-choice question.

Official system, politics, finance, military, water conservancy, transportation, people's livelihood, education, customs, national character. No matter which path Zhao Xu chooses to do, even if he only chooses one of them, it will bring about earth-shaking changes to the Song Dynasty.

However, the knowledgeable elites of the Song Dynasty had already seen the future and hope from Su You's memorial, and now they actually encouraged themselves to strive to complete all ten major events!

Even Su You himself, who wrote these articles, had no hope of seeing them all come to fruition in his lifetime!

Looking at the earnest eyes of the two people, Su You felt a little ashamed, but in the end he suppressed his impulse: "Let's draw up the terms first. If we can't say it well, let alone do it?"

Zhang Dunli and Su Che looked at each other and sighed lightly. Perhaps this is the biggest difference between Su You and Wang Anshi, Sima Guang and Zhao Xu.

A lofty ideal will only be implemented step by step in actions, and guarantees and commitments will never be made easily.

Although he has always done more than others expected of him, this style often gives people the illusion of weakness, grievance, and lack of passion.

Only in front of non-political figures such as Su Xiaomei, Shi Wei, Hachi Gong, Ba Niang and Twenty-Seven Niangs, Su You would occasionally reveal his ambitions and inner feelings.
