"Wow, it's really an egg-laying rooster!" Su Shi picked up the hot egg stained with dung, touched it in front of his father and said, "Look, the world is really full of wonders..."
Su Xun didn't believe it anymore, so he walked over and opened the cage and carefully checked the chicken. It was indeed a rooster. He looked at Chen Ke suspiciously and said, "What trick are you playing?"
"How dare my son-in-law deceive his father-in-law?" Chen Ke spread his hands and said, "This is indeed an egg-laying rooster that my son-in-law found at the request of his father-in-law after visiting all the prefectures and counties."
"How can a rooster lay eggs?" Su Xun didn't believe it.
"I remembered that there is an ancient book that talks about 'rooster eggs'. Although they are rare, they are still made by human beings." Su Shi said with a sudden look on his face: "'Take fat roosters, put them in a closed cage, and let a group of females circle the cage.
Externally, if they are close to each other but cannot touch each other, the essence and energy will condense over time, and they will be able to form eggs. Presumably, this rooster was made in this way, right?"
"Haha..." Chen Ke has never read that ancient book, and he doesn't know if his uncle is covering for him, but he knows that roosters lay eggs and hens crow. Although it is rare, it does exist. Because it exists in the biological world.
'Sex reversal', that is, switching between males and females. The most typical examples are eels and chickens.
There are two situations when a rooster lays eggs. One is that it is originally a hen... According to later studies, it is found that the left side of a normal hen's ovary develops normally, while the right side atrophies and degenerates. When a hen suffers from tuberculosis, peritonitis and other diseases or food poisoning, the right side of the ovary develops normally.
The ovaries will begin to enlarge, develop into a kind of ovarian testicle, and produce male hormones. This will cause physiological function confusion. Secondary sexual changes will occur, turning the hen into a rooster.
The second possibility is hermaphrodite, that is, it has both male and female reproductive organs in its body. Because the development period of birds is short, the possibility of bisexual phenomena is greater than that of other species. For example, male organs have always been dominant before.
So it grows like a rooster, but due to some acquired factors, the female organ becomes dominant, and it can lay eggs.
Chen Ke remembered that the probability of a rooster laying an egg was one in ten thousand, so as long as the sample was large enough, it would be found. So he gave the order. Qingshen Consortium, Blue Hat Chamber of Commerce, Bianjing Money Company, Sihai Trading Company, and even
People all over Dali began to search for him. To be rich is good, and with a huge reward, they finally found such a 'fighter among roosters' in a farmhouse in Hejian Prefecture!
Then he sent it to the capital like he was serving his ancestors. Chen Ke saw it lay three eggs with his own eyes before he dared to get it in front of his father-in-law.

"This chicken now belongs to my father-in-law," Chen Ke said with a smile: "It's not like it's the next one. If you're worried, go back and personally supervise what's next."
"Don't I have anything else to do?" Su Xun snorted and said, "Even if I pass this test, is there still water left to collect?"
"The third gift can bring back a basin of water!" Liu Lang shouted again, he was deliberately going against the old man.
Before he finished speaking, the guard brought over the third box. After opening it, there was a thick quilt inside. When he opened the quilt, he found a cold copper cabinet inside. Mukuro put on his gloves, opened the lid, and took it out.
A copper basin, teeth chattering and said: "Old man, please accept it."
Su Xun snorted again: "This is a basin of ice, not water!"
"My father is wrong. Ice is what water is. How can you say it is not water?" Su Shi shook his head and said, "Water is cold and ice, and ice melts into water. They are the same thing. It cannot be because I was standing before and now I am lying down.
Now, you don’t recognize me anymore, do you?”
"Hmph..." Su Xun glared at him and said, "Whose side are you on?"
"My father taught me since I was a child that I should help with family matters and not with relatives." Su Shi said with a smile: "Chen Sanlang has fulfilled the request you made at the beginning to the letter. Father, please don't make it difficult for him..."
"Alas..." Su Xun sighed, then turned to Chen Ke, with a fierce look in his eyes: "If you let my daughter suffer even the slightest injustice, I will fight with your Chen family!"
"Father-in-law, please rest assured." Chen Ke said overjoyed: "I will treat my little sister like a treasure, love and protect her, and grow old together!"
"Remember your words!" Su Xun snorted again: "Let your father decide the date!"
"Thank you, father-in-law, for helping me!"
"Even if you have the power to reach heaven, let the officials grant you a special marriage." Seeing Chen Ke's heartfelt joy, Su Xun sighed and softened his tone and said, "But I'm afraid I can't stop the officials from talking."
"Let them talk." Chen Ke shook his head and smiled: "My son-in-law doesn't care..."
"Oh, you said you..." Su Xun shook his head and was speechless.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beihai County Prince's Mansion, Zhao Zongji's residence.
"Anyway, we finally got both ends of the job done," Chen Ke said with a long sigh of relief: "But we can't start the wedding yet because the official order hasn't been issued yet."
"Actually, the safe way is to obtain the imperial edict and then argue with both sides." Zhao Zongji said with a smile.
"In that case, I'm afraid that the two Yue families will think that they are using their power to oppress others, which will lead to more branches." Mrs. Zhang's heart is much more delicate than his.
"That's right." Chen Ke nodded and said, "So I have to do this even though I know it's unreliable." Then he looked at Zhao Zongji and said, "But I don't have the qualifications to enter the palace to ask for an audience, so I need you to help me."
, let’s see if the officials can do well.”
"No problem, it's rare that you ask me for help," Zhao Zongji nodded and smiled: "It's hard to enjoy the blessings of Qi people. The omnipotent Bachelor Chen has to humble himself and beg for help everywhere..."
"Stop talking sarcastically." Madam Zhang said with a smile: "Zhong Fang is not enjoying a blessing, he is affectionate and righteous. If it were any other man, he would never suffer like this. If he were not afraid of betraying one of them, he would
It doesn’t take so much trouble to have a concubine with a hundred rooms, right?”
"What Mrs. Sister-in-law said really moved me." Chen Ke nodded loudly and said, "Just for these words, fifty pieces of the best lake silk and suzhou embroidery!"
"In the future, I will say more good things about Zhong Fang..." Mrs. Zhang covered her mouth and said with a smile, "But there is no need to use so much."
"There are always favors that need to be taken care of." Chen Ke said lightly: "Don't underestimate the power of the pillow breeze."
Mrs. Zhang nodded and understood what Chen Ke meant. In the circle of ladies in Bianjing, Zhao Zongshi's wife Gao Taotao was known for her generosity. She did not know how many good relationships she had made with small favors. Those ladies who benefited from her
, will naturally blow the pillow wind towards Zhao Zongshi, which can really knock down a lot of grasshoppers.
While they were talking, Zhao Xiang'er listened quietly to the side without saying a word.
"Sister, what are you thinking about?" Zhao Zongji glanced at the pitiful little princess with distress.
"I was thinking..." The moisture in Zhao Xiang'er's big eyes flashed away, and then he showed a bright smile and said: "The eldest brother is finally getting married, what kind of gift should I give him."
"You don't need to give me anything. You are happy. That's the best gift." Chen Ke smiled and said, "I heard that you keep staying up late recently, which is not good."
"Tang Li is profound and profound," Zhao Xiang'er said with a smile, "I don't trust it all because of the Japanese, so I look for ancient books to compare. Sometimes I look it up, but it's too late before I know it."
"I'm trying to find something for you to do so you won't be bored. Don't put the cart before the horse." Chen Ke sighed lightly and said, "Seeing as the weather isn't that hot anymore, I still need to go out for more walks."
"Yeah." Zhao Xiang'er smiled sweetly and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will take care of myself."
"By the way, Zhong Fang." Seeing the slight silence, Zhao Zongji smiled and said, "Do you still remember the polo match in Liao Kingdom?"
"Yeah." Chen Ke nodded and said, "I will never forget it."
"I thought at the time that such a fierce ball game would be an excellent exercise for the body and will." Zhao Zongji said: "In contrast, our Cuju in the Song Dynasty only focused on flower work without physical contact, which was like child's play.
"
"Um."
"I was at Xiang'er's place the day before yesterday and saw the rules of Cuju in the Tang Dynasty that she compiled." Zhao Zongji looked at his sister and said, "That's when I realized that Cuju in the Tang Dynasty was actually the same as polo, with both sides fighting hand-to-hand and fighting fiercely.
of."
"Yes." Chen Ke nodded, it was similar to modern football: "Cuju is a sport in the military."
"It's better to try to restore Tang style Cuju!" Zhao Zongji said: "This kind of Cuju can strengthen the body and mind, which is beneficial to the country."
"What do you mean?" Chen Ke looked at him suspiciously.
"Hehe..." Zhao Zongji said embarrassedly: "I was thinking that people are used to playing Cuju across a net, and I'm afraid it won't be so easy to change back." He said with a smile and said: "There must be a brave man under a heavy reward.
.Do you think you are offering a reward or something?"
"Second brother, do you regard your eldest brother as the God of Wealth?" Zhao Xiang'er said angrily and funny: "The eldest brother is going to have a wedding soon. How can he have so much spare money?"
"Sister, you have to clarify your position, I am your brother!" Zhao Zongji laughed and scolded.
"Okay, okay, I'll go out." Chen Ke surrendered: "How about fifty thousand guan?"
"It's too much..." Zhao Zongji originally only planned to let him pay 10,000 yuan.
"Fifty thousand guan is just 50,000 guan. How about buying horse bones with a thousand gold?" Chen Ke shook his head and said: "You have to get the rain and dew equally, so that everyone can do something... All participating teams will get an appearance fee as long as they play. The more wins, the more wins.
, so that you can actively participate.”
"All these people, I can't even compare to you when it comes to flattering horses." Zhao Zongji said with a smile: "How about this, I'll greet the people, and I'll leave the competition organization to you, how about that?"
"I've been given another job." Chen Ke smiled bitterly and said, "I won't be idle forever. Marshal Di wants me to take over the martial arts academy."
"Really..." Zhao Zongji frowned and said, "Do you want to go?" In his opinion, this was not in line with Chen Ke's identity.
"Go." Chen Ke said solemnly: "For the sake of ideals."
"Yan Yun..." Zhao Zongji murmured: "When will I be able to recruit a powerful force to restore my sixteen states in Yanshan?"
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." Chen Ke took a deep breath and said, "I must run this college well!"
As I said before, tens of thousands of paying readers are supervising me, and tens of thousands of eyes are staring at me. How can I dare to play any tricks? If I make any small moves, the secret will be exposed immediately...and then I will be finished.
So you can rest assured that I won’t play tricks on anyone, and I won’t play tricks on readers... They are all my parents!
In addition, Su Xun is the Secretary and Provincial Teacher, not from Jixianyuan. This is corrected.
