Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault." Defang smiled, "Don't be angry, madam, let's give Xu'er the medicine first."

"It's up to you." Concubine Di pushed Defang back, "Go get the medicine later."

"Okay, okay" Defang turned and went out of the house, brought back the medicine in a while, Wei Xu lay down and fell asleep after drinking it, Defang was read by Concubine Di for a long time, but she still listened to it with a smile, Defang He felt very happy to be with Concubine Di, because he knew that Concubine Di loved him very much, even if he was told that he would listen.

Early the next morning, Defang took Weixu out of the house. The two had breakfast in the teahouse, and then went to the market. After seeing the very novel domesticated golden crucian carp, Defang took Weixu to play the pitching pot Wei Xu was asked to hold the arrow steadily, aim at the thin bottle mouth before shooting, Wei Xu played a few times, but always missed, a little frustrated, Defang patted him, "Don't worry, calm down, come on! "As he spoke, he dragged him to the sumo arena. There were three pairs of people competing. As long as you bet 5 coins, you can enter the field. If you win, you can take 8 coins. The owner gets 2 coins. Fang put down 5 coins and said, "Xu'er, let's go!"

Wei Xu was a little afraid, "Father...Dad, they are so strong, I can't do it"

"What's wrong, come on, go!" Defang pushed Weixu onto the stage.

Sumo in the Song Dynasty is a kind of competitive entertainment, and it is also a way to select and promote officers in the army. It is deeply loved by nobles and common people. In the army, this method is often used to train soldiers. Sumo wrestlers only wear shorts and upper body ****, two people play a game, and it ends with one person getting out of the circle or admitting defeat to determine the winner.

But Xu saw that he had no choice but to play, and a small officer who competed with him claimed to have passed the military primary election. Defang said, "Both he and you have passed the military primary election. Show him Xuer you If you have the strength, remember, you must be steady in the game, and you can take him down in one fell swoop if you seize the opportunity."

Wei Xu nodded, the two rushed together, Wei Xu lowered his body, grabbed each other, and kept stable, the other party couldn't hold Wei Xu, a little anxious, wanted to hook Wei Xu's knee with his legs, Wei Xu grabbed the little officer Pulling his leg upwards, the little officer flipped out of the circle, but Wei Xu himself was taken aback, and then jumped out of the field, "Dad! I won, I won!"

Defang smiled, "Hahaha, good son! Hahaha"

Afterwards, Defang brought Weixu to the river to go fishing. Weixu was still very happy because he had just won the sumo wrestling, but he didn't catch a single fish. Defang said, "Xu'er, you must learn to control your heart. What happened just now is already a thing of the past, you should not be immersed in it all the time, otherwise you will lose everything in front of you.”

Wei Xu looked at Defang's calm face, and couldn't see any waves at all, so he also took a deep breath, holding the fishing rod in his hand, and sat quietly, watching the float with his eyes, slowly, Wei Xu Feeling that her hands were trembling slightly, Defang said again, "Don't worry about getting something, everything is natural, what comes and goes, what should go, you can accept it without hindrance."

Wei Xu thought about it. Slowly, his hands stopped shaking. The father and son sat quietly. After a while, the fish was hooked. Wei Xu seemed very surprised, and he admired his father more and more in his heart.

Defang raised her head and looked at the sky, "Let's go back, I guess your mother's queen is going to read her father's name again."

Wei Xu smiled, and the two came to the pitching pot stall in the market again. The stall owner was about to collect it, but Defang said, "Tanjia, let my son play another game" and handed over ten coins

When the stall owner saw the money, he immediately said, "Okay, sir."

Wei Xu held the arrow, suddenly felt very different, and quickly mastered the trick, eight out of ten shots, very happy, Defang patted Wei Xu, "Very good, let's go back home"

As soon as she got back to the mansion, Defang took the bow and arrow and handed it to Weixu, "Come!"

Wei Xu took the bow and arrow, raised the arrow and drew the bow, stared at the target with both eyes, his arms were very steady, one arrow shot out, and hit the target, Wei Xu was very happy, and shot a few more arrows, all of which hit the heart, Wei Xu said: " Father, what's going on?"

Defang smiled, "Before, it wasn't because Xu'er your archery skills were not good, but because your heart was restless and your frame was unstable. Today I went to wrestle sumo, fish and throw pots. I just hope you can realize these. Once you master the essentials, you will be able crack shot."

"Thank you, Father!" Wei Xu was very excited

At this time, Concubine Di came over, "Let's say it's the lord, let Xu'er practice well. I'm being watched by the concubine right now, let's see how the lord explains it. Where did the lord take Xu'er all day long? My shoulders are not good, I will practice again when I come back.”

"Mother, the baby is fine! The child is going to take a bath and eat later!" Wei Xu ran away after finishing speaking.

"What's wrong with this child? Is there anything happy?" Concubine Di didn't understand.

Defang smiled, and Concubine Di said, "Is there something the prince is hiding from his concubine?"

"Ma'am, how dare I hide it from Madam, it's just the first time I take Xu'er to play on the street, it's rare for him to be so happy."

Concubine Di nodded, "Yeah, it's rare to see Xu'er happy like this, the lord must accompany him well."

"Well, he is our eldest son, and he will take on great responsibilities in the future," Defang said

"My lord, the food is almost ready, go take a shower and have a meal." Concubine Di supported Defang

"Thank you Ma'am." Defang patted Concubine Di's hand.
