There was no official position of prime minister or prime minister in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The official title of the prime minister of the Song Dynasty was: the Minister of the Secretariat, and the deputy prime minister was: the Minister of the Political Affairs.

In addition to the chief and deputy prime minister, there are also ministers, such as Privy Councilor, Left-behind, Jiedushi, and Shizhong, and the Secretary of the Central Committee, and the Tongzhangshi, all called ministers.

So, although Han Lingcheng is not well-known, it is just that his luck is a little bit worse.

Although Han Lingcheng only served as the six ministers of the ministers, his connections in the court should not be underestimated.

He and the famous prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty were once in the family.

Zhang Junping did this naturally to pave the way for his younger brother.

There are some people in the court who are easy to be an official and Han Lingcheng's care, Zhang Junhui's future path will be easier.

After all, it is impossible for Zhang Junping to promote and recommend his younger brother.

Although there is a saying that you do not avoid relatives when you select a virtuous person, you cannot choose a virtuous person every time, right?

You can only choose the virtuous at a critical moment without avoiding relatives.

...

After discussing the lottery and confirming the middleman, Zhang Junping and Xia Linsheng began to compete for hunting.

Zhang Junping did not bring his bow and arrow into the mountain. After all, he is now a civil servant, not a military general.

He casually found a strong bow with one stone from the imperial guards.

It took a quick trip and it took a full month.

Zhang Junping used this bow a little lightly, but he could do it.

"Okay! County Magistrate Zhang is so strong!" Xia Linsheng, Li Shijin, Han Lingcheng and others praised.

"I've been awarded too much, I've been awarded too much!" Zhang Junping smiled and bowed his hands and said modestly.

Xia Linsheng praised him, but became secretly alert in his heart.

Although the bow in his hand is luxurious, it is just a stone bow.

Even with a stone bow, Xia Linsheng could not pull the bow so easily.

The lottery of the competition doesn't matter, the key is that it won't look good if you lose.

He was willing to compete, but he proposed the test hunting test, and it was hard to say that he would not compare.

What are you afraid of? This general fights repeatedly and never gives up!

Xia Linsheng comforted himself in his heart, and took the bow and arrow and walked into the mountains with two personal soldiers.

Zhang Junping also took the bow and arrow and took two yamen runners into the forest on the other side.

In this era, although there is no animal protection law, there are still many wild animals.

Especially in the deep mountains, there are more wild animals.

Zhang Junping took the yamen runners for less than ten minutes and then captured two pheasants and three hares.

After walking for more than half an hour, Zhang Junping climbed up a hill.

He was going to the hills to observe the environment first and then determine the goal.

Unlike Xia Linsheng, Zhang Junping doesn’t care about winning or losing, he only cares about bets.

With the hundreds of craftsmen from Xia Linsheng and Li Shijin and the four battalions of wing troops, the progress of building reservoirs and canals will be much faster.

Although all expenditures for building reservoirs and canals are the responsibility of the ten major families, if too many civilians are recruited, it will also affect the lives of local people.

Zhang Junping is not the kind of official who blindly pursues political achievements. Building reservoirs and canals is a good policy, but if you are too anxious, it may turn into tyranny.

Tyranny and good governance are often just a line of separation.

"Mr., over there!" He Xi pointed to the distance and shouted in a low voice.

Zhang Junping looked in the direction of He Xi's finger.

About five or six hundred meters away, in a clearing field, more than a dozen gray wolves were hunting a lonely wild boar.

This kind of scenario is not common.

In the mountains and forests, there is a saying that one pig, two bears and three tigers are said.

Wild boars are almost invincible in the mountains and forests.

Generally speaking, predators in the jungle will not regard wild boars as objects of prey.

It is still terrible for wild boars to start crazy.

The mane on the body is covered with pine oil and soil, which is comparable to a piece of armor, tigers and wild wolves' minions, which are difficult to tear open the wild boar's defense.

Facing the hunting of more than a dozen gray wolves, the wild boar was a little panicked, but he was not scared and did not dare to move.

I saw the wild boar leaning against a big stone, lowering his head, making a snoring sound from his mouth, and did not blindly issue its talented skills, and it would savagely collide.

The wild boar is still very smart and knows where his door is, so he leans against the big stone and refuses to leave.

For humans, the key part of wild boars is the eyes, and it is difficult to shoot wild boars with one arrow in other parts.

But for predators like gray wolf, the key to wild boars is the back door.

The gray wolf hunts wild boars, and with one claw, it can take out the wild boar's intestines.

The wild boar also understood where his hood was, so he leaned against the rocks and let the gray wolf test and provoke it without any movement.

Humans often swear, being stupid like a pig.

In fact, this is an insult to pigs. Pigs are very smart animals. In the animal world, they rank relatively high, second only to chimpanzees, with IQ equivalent to three or four-year-old children.

"Go, go down!" Zhang Junping took He Xi and Zhang Erzhu quickly down the hill.

This is the prey that came to the door. After taking down these dozen gray wolves and the wild boar, I basically won the competition.

Before Zhang Junping and the other two approached the wolf pack, the wolves hunting had already discovered Zhang Junping and the others.

With a wolf howl, the wolves hunting wild boars immediately split half of them and turned to surround Zhang Junping and the others.

Zhang Junping quickly approached the wolf pack and pulled the bow and arrow.

After half a year of training, although Zhang Junping's archery technique is not a hundred shots or a hundred steps, he can still achieve nine out of ten shots.

Especially the fast shooting at close range, the hand speed that a single person has been practicing for decades is no worse than that of Yang Wenguang and others who have practiced riding and shooting since childhood.

By the time the wolves pounced on Zhang Junping, he had already shot out ten arrows. The only one in front of him was left.

"Don't do it!" Zhang Junping shouted at the congratulations that he was about to swing his knife to kill the wild wolf, and he pierced the heart with an arrow and nailed the seventh wild wolf to the ground.

In order to ensure fairness of the competition, the two personal soldiers led by Xia Linsheng and the two yamen runners led by Zhang Junping were only wearing swords and no bows and arrows.

The purpose of their existence is to help get prey.

He lost seven subordinates in an instant, which made the head wolf extremely angry.

With a shrill howl of wolves, the eight wild wolves who were besieging wild boars, gave up their prey and turned to the jungle.

Although the head wolf was angry, he had not lost his mind yet. He knew that the creature with two legs was powerful, so he immediately chose to retreat.

Zhang Junping chased the wild wolf and shot out seven or eight feather arrows, but in the end only three wild wolves were left.

Fortunately, He Xi blocked the wild boar that was about to escape.

Zhang Junping shot his arrow into his eyes and pierced his brain, resulting in the life of a wild boar.

"Mr. Lang, if nothing unexpected happens, we will definitely win!"

"Well! Erzhu, go and ask someone to carry prey!" Zhang Junping nodded and ordered Zhang Erzhu.
Chapter completed!
