There are many treasures in this country

Eleven has no name and is the famous orphan of Habayashi.

His father died in the battle against Xirong that year, and his mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to him. The word "Eleven" is his number in the Orphan Camp of the Habayashi Army.

Since the Han Dynasty, the Habayashi Army has always been famous for its tradition of adopting the descendants of soldiers who died in battle and training them as soldiers. These people are called "Habayashi Orphans".Because they grew up in the army since they were young, they had no one to rely on, no worries, so they were extraordinarily brave in battle, and on the contrary, they were stronger than the soldiers who had been selected thousands of times.

Back then, Shen Yan led troops deep into the barren land and rescued two bloody soldiers from the flames of war. One of them was Eleven, who was not yet 13 years old at the time, but had charged into battle with a spear.Shen Yan brought the two back to the mansion and became houseboys.

Since then, Eleven has a surname.

Shen Shiyi has been by Shen Yan's side for many years, and he knows his general's temperament [-]% if not [-]%.Yesterday morning, when Xiao Qiongan bumped into his general's galloping horse, his wise and powerful general looked like he saw a living phoenix, and he almost hugged him to the couch.

He thought it was wrong at the time, and later when Xiao Qiongan came to make trouble at the gate of the mansion, his general mistakenly thought that Xiao Qiongan was here to apologize, so he waved his hand to cancel the previous incident, and said that his horse ran into that poor man.

Others don't know, but he knows best.

That horse was a tribute presented to the emperor by Tushan Kingdom in the Western Regions. It was a very handsome horse, and it was said to have the blood of Dawan sweat horse.The Holy One rode it to hunt in Shanglinyuan in autumn six years ago.

At that time, there was an extremely agile and fast-moving cheetah in the royal hunting ground—it was said to be a foreign species donated by a small overseas country.Today, Zi is only 26 years old, and he was only 20 years old back then.There is no young man who is not competitive, let alone a real dragon emperor with a strong blood.

So, the emperor was so excited, he pulled the divine bow, set up a treasured arrow, shot it, and missed it three times. In a rage, he shook off his left and right sides and rode his horse to chase after him.

The consequences of the incident can be imagined: the little emperor not only failed to hold the cheetah, but also fell off the horse and sprained his ankle.Sacred Heart was very displeased, and immediately handed down a reward. If anyone hunted this leopard, he would be promoted to a higher rank and rewarded with a Dendrobium of South China Sea Pearl.

At that time, everyone on the hunting ground was brave and eager to grab the golden opportunity.However, there were also literati who accompanied him quietly discussing, saying that the emperor's move had the intention of favoring military officials, which was very sad, sad.

After hunting for a day, everyone returned discouraged, and no one could hunt the leopard.

The emperor was not angry, he only said that he would hunt again tomorrow.In the early morning of the next day, Shen Yanfang, who drank too much wine yesterday and didn't wake up until today, heard about it.He was only 25 back then, and he had a dissolute temper, so he naturally developed a competitive mind.

But Eleven felt that his general was better than others, because he didn't go directly to the field, but watched the battle from a high place first, and after thoroughly studying the cheetah's dodging skills, he asked the emperor for orders.

At that time, Shen Yan hadn't been transferred to the emperor's own army, the Habayashi Guard, but he was just a rank-[-] striker subordinate to the Ministry of War. The emperor didn't even see his nose and eyes clearly.

But Shen Yan was always daring, and in front of civil and military ministers and internal officials' attendants, he boasted that he was sure of hunting this leopard.All the people in the room laughed, some of them had a good relationship with him, thinking that he would definitely not be able to hunt a leopard today, even if the emperor did not punish him, this matter would surely become a laughing stock for life, they couldn't help feeling sorry for him.

Shen Yan ignored those, and said to the emperor: "Leopards are famous for their agility. No matter how strong an ordinary horse is, it cannot run away. No matter how good an ordinary bow and arrow is, it cannot outrun it. Although I don't read much, I have heard People from the Ordnance Bureau in Kyoto said, 'If a worker wants to be good at his work, he must first sharpen his tools'. Moreover, there are sayings that 'a gentleman should seek wisdom first' and 'surrender the enemy's army without fighting'. Therefore, the humble minister boldly, Please the emperor lend you your royal bow and horse to this humble minister."

At that time, when everyone heard the rumors, they all said that he was so treacherous that he dared to ask the emperor for a mount, but that was no different from asking for a dragon chair. Isn't it an intention of treason?This matter was later spread in Beijing, and the civil officials all used it as evidence, saying that he had unruly intentions and a rebellious heart.

However, the emperor did not reprimand him, and immediately agreed, ordering him to go to Cheetah.Shen Yan was not polite, flew on the horse, bent the bow and drew the arrow, within half an hour, he used the ambushes set up in the hunting ground to plant the medicine, trapped the cheetah in the siege, and captured it alive.

When the guards pulled the cheetah up with cage iron locks, not only the sergeants cheered in unison, but even the civil servants who looked down on the generals had nothing to say, and just "hummed" silently: "Forget that he has strength!"

The Holy Majesty was overjoyed and praised Shen Yan as the first person to ride and shoot in my dynasty.

This story was recorded in the official history books of later generations, saying: "Shen Yan was a man who was good at riding and shooting, beautiful in color, and unparalleled in combat. What a pity!"

When Shen Yan captured the cheetah alive, the Holy Majesty wanted to give him an official title, but he politely refused, and only asked the emperor to exempt the two orphans from Habayashi from the army and ask him to take them back to be houseboys.In fact, Eleven has already been brought home by him, but the household registration is still registered in the Yulin Orphan Camp, which is somewhat inconsistent with reason.

Although the Holy One was happy, he did not agree to his request. Instead, he was specially transferred to Habayashi Guard, and even his military status was transferred there.Not only that, the emperor also gave him the steed.The news of the "imperial bestowed galloping horse" spread like wildfire, making everyone jealous and eager to climb this high branch.

Shen Yan used to love horses, after getting this horse, he regarded it as a treasure, better than himself.Therefore, after Xiao Suo bumped into Yu Chima that day, he didn't pursue it, which is really abnormal.Shen Shishi thought so.

Abnormal things, not just one.

For example, today, why do you have to do the trivial things of burial yourself?Even if you do it yourself, why not allow others to follow?Even if no one is allowed to follow, why don't you come back at night?

The more he thought about it on the eleventh day, the more wrong it became. Seeing that the sky was dark and the rain outside was getting worse, his general and Xiao Qiongsan did not return home for a long time.If something goes wrong, it must be a demon, so he resolutely decided to go out and look for it.

It didn't matter if he searched for it, but he found corpses all over the floor.

Judging from the wounds on the corpses, it should be the wounds of narrow and straight long knives, not deep into the flesh, the cuts are neat, and all of them are at the vital points, a fatal blow is clearly the usual method of his general.

On the [-]th, something happened, and I felt more and more dangerous, so I took a group of people, searched up and down the mountain, in front of the mountain and behind the mountain for a whole night.Finally in the early hours of the morning, they found Shen Yan and Xiao Suo outside the cave where they were hiding.

Shen Yan heard a voice outside, thought it was the assassin from the Happy Hall, and didn't want to look through the grass. On the neck under the knife edge, there was a round head with thick eyebrows and big eyes. It was not someone else, but his family. eleven.

General Shen was overjoyed: "I knew it was time for you to come too. It's not in vain that my Lord loves you all the time."

On Shishi, seeing his general's arm was covered with cloth, with dark red blood stains on it, he frowned and asked, "Which lunatic hurt the Lord? Go and kill him on Shishi!"

Shen Yan waved his hand nonchalantly: "The person who hurt me has already been killed by me. Quickly pull the carriage and bring Mr. Xiao back."

"Young Master Xiao?" Eleven curled his lips, when he was so poor and jealous of a great scholar, he became a young master.

Shen Yan didn't care to talk to him, went back to the cave and told Xiao Suo about the outside situation, helped him out of the cave, raised his big hand, and carried Xiao Suo, who had sprained his feet, into the carriage.

Xiao Suo blushed, and hurriedly stayed away from him, lest he do such transgressive things again.

Galloping all the way home, the servants were ordered by Shi Shi before leaving, and they had already prepared dry clothes and hot ginger soup, just waiting for them to come back.Even though he was so thoughtful, Xiao Suo still became hot on the second day.

Shen Yan was in the army, and he had never seen such a big man who couldn't help rubbing his body, even the emperor who was so delicate and precious was not like him, he would get sick when he was exposed to rain and wind.

But his cheeks were flushed red, and his small appearance was really intoxicating.

General Shen smiled like a flower.

On Shishi, he was ordered to invite Li Huaiyuan, a well-known doctor in the county, for him, and then presented the prescription to his general for review.Shen Yan looked at the words densely packed like weeds on it, and rubbed the sun, with an extremely serious expression on his face.

"Master," Eleven asked quietly curiously, "Do you...understand?"

Don't look at his general's eloquence in speaking, and the politeness in the officialdom is also very handy, and he can often say a few polite words, but in fact he is just a paper tiger, and he will reveal his original shape when the wind blows.

In fact, he only knew a few words, so he was not considered blind.The ink in my stomach is probably full of half an inkstone born by a five or six-year-old boy.It is all because of being with the Holy One these years that I have been able to learn a lot of words, but rely on my heart and brain.In terms of literary foundation, I'm afraid it's thinner than Xiao Suo's face.I can't even understand books on weekdays, how can I understand prescriptions?

"Who said you can't understand?" Shen Yan stared, "This general leads troops to fight, and he has a headache and brain fever, and he can't cure it? Even if an arm is broken or a leg is broken, he can still make it up."

Eleven sneered and said: "That's natural, what can't you do!" But he thought in his heart: "God has eyes, please don't tell me to break my arms and legs. If I fold them in the general's hands, I will definitely be disabled." .”

Shen Yan didn't know his thoughts, he really thought that his medical skills were affirmed, pointed at the prescription and said: "Look at it, look at it! The calligraphy of the people down here looks like a dog crawling on it. , one stroke and one stroke are like ghost symbols, what kind of ghost can you see?"

Eleven wiped off his sweat, and said again: "Master, I heard that this seems to be, um... called cursive script."

Shen Yanqing coughed and nodded: "Well, there is such a font, the Holy Majesty said that Huai Xu and Zhang Su wrote very well." He patted the table, and said: "Hmph, there is no cursive script for writing prescriptions! This is clearly because he was afraid of prescribing the wrong prescription and causing people to eat it badly, so he deliberately did it. If something happens to the wrong medicine, he will push it to the people who grab the medicine, because they misunderstood the name of the medicine."

The corner of Eleven's mouth twitched, and he pinched his throat and asked, "Then what do you mean... another doctor?"

"No need." Shen Yan waved his hand, "Go, take the doctor to grab the medicine, and press his head for me. I have to tell him to explain clearly and understand. If there is something wrong, it will be him." You can't rely on it. Mr. Xiao is weak, so he has to go back and forth to change the doctor, and it will be bad if he delays."

"Yes." Eleven cupped his hands, secretly slandering: "When did you become Mr. Xiao again?"

In the evening, the rain stopped, and the fever of Xiao Suo subsided.

Shen Yan was overjoyed, and ordered someone to seal ten taels of silver to Li Langzhong as a thank you.After Li Huaiyuan's humiliation in the morning, he refused to accept it in a very upright manner. He just said that he was a "martial bandit" and went away cursing.

Shen Yan is informal, he doesn't care about these things.When Xiao Suo recovered, he was happy, ordered someone to make some porridge and side dishes and sent them to his room, and asked his servants to take care of him.

Everyone in Shen's residence wondered, they met by chance, yesterday they had to cut off their fingers, why they take good care of them today, and become as close as brothers?

Only Eleven can see clearly and think clearly—his general has an old problem!
