Sanle refers to Anmolle, Pilile, and Halile. Sanle pulp is fermented and brewed from these three medicinal materials. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Persians who came to China brought with them the brewing technology of Sanlejing wine.

The Persians mixed these three plants together to brew Sanler wine, which not only relieves heat and plague, but also strengthens the spleen and eliminates food. Sanler wine, which was combined with medicinal properties, became a famous wine in Chang'an City at that time. It became popularized over time.

This kind of wine has a great feature, that is, it has extremely low alcohol content!

Anyway, Fang Chongyong was drinking it as a post-meal digestion drink.

As for how the small amount of Sanlejiang in the Bai Dinh Army came from, it is because some of the Bai Dinh Army came from Persia and knew how to brew this kind of wine.

The sun was setting and the cool breeze was blowing. Before the temperature difference between day and night in Baitingbao changed dramatically, Fang Chongyong moved the "Grand Master's Chair" he had just built according to his intention to the city wall of Baitingbao. He sat on it and gently rocked the chair, feeling Looking at the magnificent scenery in front of you.

Drink a cup of Sanlejiang and look at the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty. It is really a worthwhile trip!

"Brother Fang Xian, I am not worried that the recipe is not good, but I just donate it to the saint. Isn't it inappropriate?"

Xin Yunjing, who was standing next to Fang Chongyong, asked in a low voice. He was standing with Fang Chongyong sitting, making it look like he was the envoy of the Baiting Army!

But to be honest, Fang Chongyong is the real uncle here in Baitingbao. He can be said to have great hands and eyes, and is much more impressive than Xin Yunjing, the military envoy who manages a thousand people.

After learning that the prescription had been handed over to Xiao Jiong, the newly appointed governor of Hexi Province, and that from now on the medicinal materials would be exclusively supplied by the Baitinghai Ranch with "outstanding people", Xin Yunjing breathed a sigh of relief and felt his heart in his throat again.

This matter is really full of joy and sorrow.

Fortunately, as long as Bai Tingjun uses his connections to promote the drug, it will be very easy to promote the drug called "Shunqi Cynomorium Tea" to the Hexi Corridor and even the Western Regions. Because it is endorsed by the credibility of Li Longji, the sage of the Tang Dynasty.

All good things are used by emperors. Anyone who doesn’t use them is a fool. If there are conditions, he will use them. If there are no conditions, he will use them if he creates conditions!

What's more, Fang Chongyong is well versed in marketing. He knows very well that the more low-key a name is, the more mysterious it will be when it is circulated in private.

Xin Yunjing feels that this kind of thing is just like a beauty wearing clothes. If she is naked, she looks like a beast, but is vulgar and unattractive to men.

If you wear too much, you will be beautiful, but if you are too solemn and less charming, you will keep men at a distance. I only want to watch from a distance and don't want to play.

Only clothing that is vaguely visible and half-covered can attract men's attention and encourage them to do bad things.

This is the name of this medicine. Smooth Qi is to regulate the spleen and stomach, and Cynomorium Cynomorium is used to strengthen the foundation and strengthen the vitality. When good people see this "tea name", they can only say that they understand it and don't need too much explanation. This kind of name is much better than "Zhushengjiao", which sounds less serious at first sight.

It can be said that those who have seen it will not buy it, those who have bought it will not ask, and those who have used it will not tell.

Xin Yunjing thought of women's clothes from the marketing method, and couldn't help but be in awe of Fang Chongyong's "talent".

No matter what happens to this child in the future, just looking at it now, his little brain is really not comparable to that of ordinary people.

"Don't worry, the saint is also a human being. He pays more attention to the harmony of yin and yang. Brother, don't think too much. Bai Tingjun sells medicinal materials without stealing or robbing him. The money comes clearly. Even if the saint knows about it in the future, he will only talk about Xin Jun. To make money in a proper way."

Fang Chongyong waved his hand indifferently and said.

"This Baitinghai is really picturesque, and the years are so peaceful!"

He looked at the lake in the distance again and couldn't help but sigh.

"Who says it's not the case? Ever since the Turks became weak, the grazing around the Baiting Sea has been in order. It's really a paradise on earth."

Xin Yunjing was also very emotional. A few years ago, the Turks still had some strength. The Baiting Army was the front line of the confrontation between the Tang army and the Turk cavalry, and the last barrier to prevent them from going south.

At that time, even though the scenery was picturesque, not many people paid attention to it. Because the war is fierce and dangerous, someone will die if you are not careful!

Nowadays, the Tubo people are running rampant, and in the process of confronting the Tang Dynasty, they can actually gain the upper hand in many cases! Therefore, Baitinghai, far away from the Tubo border, became the rear area for the Tang army to herd and raise horses!

Just seeing that "above" placed Fang Chongyong in Bai Tinghai, Xin Yunjing was deeply in awe of the strong background behind him. This is really not the treatment that ordinary officials parachuted to Hexi from the imperial court can receive.

Even if Xin Yunjing himself could be the envoy of the Baiting Army, he had made many military exploits and used many connections to be able to take office.

"I'm tired. I'll go back to sleep first."

Fang Chongyong yawned. That was the only bad thing about Sanlejing. After drinking it, he wanted to have a good sleep.

Like a young man from Wuling who was fighting cocks and walking dogs in Chang'an, he casually said hello and left the tower.

Arriving at the wing room at the highest point in Baiting Castle, as soon as Fang Chongyong came in, he saw Anaye making the bed and folding the quilt, busy cleaning.

He sat down at the table as if nothing had happened, spread out a large piece of paper, and wrote down the name of Baitinghai's specialties on the paper.

Fennel, Cynomorium cynomorium, Cistanche deserticola, wolfberry, licorice, shallots, an unknown melon, musu (a kind of grass)... It is indeed a geomantic treasure land. If there were no wars here, how wonderful it would be.

Fang Chongyong recorded everything he observed around today one by one, and the inexplicable emptiness and uneasiness in his heart suddenly disappeared.

Everything he eats, drinks, and plays in front of Xin Yunjing is just Fang Chongyong's protection. After all, his status as deputy military envoy gives him power. Who knows what Xin Yunjing's true thoughts are in his heart.

Acting a little different will make Xin Yunjing feel at ease. The so-called guarding against others is indispensable.

Fang Chongyong still thinks very clearly about these.

"You will go back to Chang'an in the future, so what's the point of recording the specialties here?"

Anaye felt as if she had been fed gunpowder. She was so angry when she saw Fang Chongyong hunkering down at his desk to write as soon as he came back!

"Traveling thousands of miles is like reading thousands of books. When reading, you need to take notes."

Fang Chongyong said lazily and put today's notes into a special wooden box. He would compile them into a special volume when he has time when he returns to Chang'an.

There will be another book published in the future, called "Fang Yanei's Travels to the Western Regions", which will definitely be passed down to future generations.

What was the most important thing when living in ancient times?

King Tu’s hegemony?

Maybe, but there is only one person who can be the emperor, and only a few people who can be the top nobles. Among all living beings in the world, how many people can achieve such an achievement?

The meaning of survival in ancient times was to "write books and establish theories" and pass them on to future generations!

But there is no need to explain these big principles to Anaye, a native girl from the Western Regions.

"Um... Fang Laique told me today that he wants me to come and sleep with him at night. What does sleeping with him mean?"

Anaye asked a little embarrassed.

Go to bed?

Fang Chongyong was stunned for a moment, and then felt horrified.

Let alone the past life, even if you let such a young girl sleep with you now, it would be a crazy thing!

"You don't have to take what that little fool said seriously in the future."

Fang Chongyong sighed helplessly.

"I also think he said you promised him to marry the prime minister's daughter in the future.

I asked him what his identity was, and he proudly said he was a member of the You family. Doesn’t this have the same identity as me? What's there to be proud of!

What's even more irritating is that Fang Laique also told me not to have any ideas for him. He doesn't look down on me. Only the prime minister's daughter is worthy of him. "

Anaye covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud. Thinking of Fang Laique, a little fool, telling her such nonsensical things in a serious manner, she could not imitate that tone and demeanor.

"Go to sleep."

Fang Chongyong felt tired when he mentioned Fang Laique.

He pointed to the wide bed and said, "You sleep in it."

"Oh...then what else do you need me to do?"

Anaye asked confused. She didn't know about men and women, but she also knew that she would definitely be Fang Chongyong's woman in the future.

"Just lie there and be good."

Fang Zhongyong sighed with a drooped face.

The girl who was raised only by her father was so pitiful, and I couldn't blame her.

"Is it that simple to go to bed?"

Even if Anaye is a fool, she still knows that there is a word "Servant" in the word "Servant". As a slave, how could she just lie down?

"Can you please stop mentioning that word?"

Fang Chongyong opened his mouth to explain, but finally sighed.

Anyway, Anaye will have to sleep with her in the future. When she grows up, she can slowly understand this kind of thing by herself.

The two of them turned off the oil lamp and lay on the bed. Anaye turned sideways and pressed the palms of her hands on one of Fang Chongyong's arms. In the dim light in the room, Fang Chongyong saw her big eyes staring at his face.

"What's wrong?"

"When will we go to Chang'an?"

Anaye asked softly.

"The war is about to begin. It's impossible to return to Chang'an."

Fang Chongyong said helplessly.

Once the Tang army fought with Tibet, a long section of the post road from Hexi to Chang'an would be unsafe, and all the post stations would be shut down.

He asked Xin Yunjing that officials generally did not come and go during war-torn times, unless military generals were mobilized, but at that time there were often more than a few hundred guards accompanying them.

Historically, when Wang Zhongsi was transferred from Longyou to Hexi, he did not go there alone. There were Li Guangbi, Ge Shuhan and others in the accompanying team. If you think about it, you know that the number of people in this team will not be particularly small!

"To study at the Imperial Medical Office, you must be at least fourteen years old. Even if they treat you as a boy, you must be at least fourteen years old before you can enroll!"

Fang Chongyong emphasized again: "And if you fail the assessment, you need to continue studying there. When you finish your studies, you will no longer be a little girl. It is really too early to think so much now!"

"I really want to learn it soon."

Anaye sighed and said, not taking Fang Chongyong's words seriously.

"Inherit your father's medical clinic?"

"That's about it. I'll have to go back to Liangzhou City to see it then."

Anaye said with some uncertainty. The more she knew, the less likely she felt that she would come back to inherit the medical center in the future.

Perhaps, he will practice medicine in the aristocratic circle of Chang'an.

She is a little unsure about the future.



"Write a book and establish a theory that will be passed down to future generations. I originally thought that Ge Nu only wanted to be an official, but I didn't expect that he would be the same as Zhang Jiuling and others."

In the study room of the main building of Xingqing Palace, Li Longji laughed loudly and put Li Linfu's "draft" on the desk.

"Back to the sage, "Liu Dian of the Tang Dynasty" has been compiled since the 10th year of Kaiyuan Dynasty. It has been written by more than ten people, but it is still not a book.

Wei Chen just wants to get it done.

The difficulty with this classic is not the enumeration, but the annotation. Only annotations based on quotations from scriptures can promote its beauty. "

Li Linfu bowed deeply to Li Longji, bowed and said.

This classic was compiled by Li Longji in the 10th year of Kaiyuan.

He also personally formulated the six articles of theory, education, etiquette, politics, punishment and affairs as the compilation outline, and Lizheng Academy (later renamed Jixian Academy) took charge of the work.

The time span spans more than ten years. Under the auspices of successive prime ministers such as Zhang Shuo, Xiao Song, and Zhang Jiuling, more than ten people including Xu Jian, Wei Shu, Liu Zhenglan, and Lu Shanjing participated in the compilation. All of them are of outstanding literary talent in the world. man of.

From the perspective of literary accomplishment, Li Linfu's participation was an insult to "Tang Liu Dian".

From the perspective of legal and administrative capabilities, Li Linfu's participation was the only opportunity to complete this masterpiece.

Although Ji Ge didn't say it, he actually agreed with Li Linfu's point of view, that is: the annotation of the classics is the core key to completing this work!

The big problem with the previous prime ministers compiling books was that others couldn't understand them!

Their drafts have extremely high requirements for reading, turning national classics into the pride of the literati circle!

At this point, Brother Ji is completely on Li Linfu's side. It doesn’t matter if the classics are complicated to write, as long as people can understand them!

"Liu Dian of the Tang Dynasty" is an administrative code about the official system of the Tang Dynasty. It stipulates the organization, establishment, responsibilities, personnel, taste, treatment, etc. of the central and local state agencies in the Tang Dynasty. The notes also describe the historical evolution of the official system.

Ji Ge's requirements for it were detailed and specific beyond ordinary standards.

Obviously, the previous prime ministers did not achieve the ideal appearance in Ji Ge's mind.

"Well, that's fine, Ge Nu can figure it out."

Li Longji yawned and seemed very tired. Last night he was very excited when he saw Huanhuan wearing a Taoist robe, and he looked very strange. He couldn't help but play with it for a while.

Unexpectedly, time is not forgiving. It is indeed quite difficult for a man in his fifties to deal with a woman in her early twenties. Brother Ji still suffers from backache and leg pain, and he has no energy to discuss government affairs with Li Linfu.

"Regarding the reform of the imperial examination system, Weichen believes that the level of officials in the state and county examination system should be raised, and the qualifications of candidates for the examination should be strictly controlled within each state. In Chang'an, the Jinshi subject will not be reformed for the time being, but the Ming Jing subject will be added first. Assessment difficulty.”

Li Linfu said cautiously.

Li Longji was stunned. He didn't expect that Li Linfu, who had vowed to reform the imperial examination and shouted to be beaten and killed, would actually take such small steps!

"Isn't it too conservative? Ge Nu can take a bigger step. What are you afraid of when I take care of you?"

Li Longji said dissatisfiedly that he now has no good impression of those people who are arrogant and frivolous. These people are useless and annoying when they see them!

Of course, this is just Brother Ji's temporary thought. In the future, when it is his turn to write memorial tributes, he may want to read about people like Zhang Jiuling and He Zhizhang.

"Back to the sage, the reform of the imperial examination system must also be carried out step by step. Wei Chen believes that it can be planned slowly."

Li Linfu replied calmly.

"Well, let's do it."

Li Longji nodded slightly. He just wanted to have a good sleep now.

At this moment, Gao Lishi hurriedly walked in, holding a piece of paper in his hand.

"Why is Rikishi so panicked?"

Li Longji asked with a teasing look on his face. Gao Lishi was steady in his work and rarely had such an expression.

Gao Lishi looked at Li Linfu, then crossed his hands and saluted: "The Turks invaded Hexi and fought with Baiting's army at Baiting Sea. Now the Turks left 10,000 horses to besiege Baiting Fort, and the rest went straight to Liangzhou City!

This is the battle report from three days ago! "

Hearing this, Li Longji stood up suddenly with a horrified look on his face!

"Now that the Turks have been torn apart, who gave them the courage to invade our country, the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Longji said angrily!

This unexpected move by the Turks completely disrupted the Tang army's deployment against Tibet in Hexi!
