Yang Zheng sweated, and said in his heart: "What kind of thoughts are these!"

Gao Hang muttered twice, and suddenly said, "Junior Brother Yang, tell me, why can Prince Yue win so often?"

Yang Zheng said: "Well, it seems to be a pioneer, like a mirror, Lord Yue, every battle, is a pioneer." Needless to say, when the official position is not high, after being promoted to the Tongtai town envoy, in order to cover the brigade and the people to cross the river, he personally led the guards to resist the Nanba bridgehead, blocking the only way for the Jin soldiers, Yue Fei was wounded by dozens of wounds in this battle, and the Yuejia army guards were killed countless times; until the last fierce battle before his death: the battle of Yuncheng, he also personally led the iron cavalry to stand out in front of the formation, and trained Huo Jian for fear of making a mistake, so he stepped forward to dissuade: "Xianggong is an important minister of the country, and his safety is at stake, so why not underestimate the enemy!" Yue Fei replied, "Feier knows!" Seeing the commander personally charging into battle, the morale of the Yue family army was greatly boosted, and the Jin soldiers were defeated in one fell swoop.

Yue Wangye first proposed that "Wenchen does not love money, Wuchen does not hesitate to die, and the world is peaceful." It can be called a model of behavior for officials in the Song Dynasty. He is honest and evasive, outspoken, not indulgent, literary and talented, strict in governing the army, outstanding in war, and loyal to the country...... I guess that's the secret of his success?"

Gao Hang nodded after hearing this, it is really not easy to win generals, it seems that I can't be a winning general, and only Brother Yang has this ability.

Yang Zheng stumbled, almost didn't fall down, and said in his heart: "Your grandfather's, only people who are too long to do what General Laoshi Changsheng does, such a big archway is on top of his head, and he won't crush a person!"

Gao Hang looked at him and asked angrily, "Little Brother Yang, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Zheng snorted angrily, and said in his heart: "What's the matter, is your grandfather's as scary as you?"

"It's not early, let's leave early, right?" Yang Zheng threw out such a sentence angrily.

Gao Hang sighed and said: "No wonder Junior Brother Yang can be a victorious general, I can't wait to go to the battlefield so eagerly, brother, I have to study hard!"

Yang Zheng sweated wildly and simply ignored him.

Yang Zheng gave an order, and the people who came to the group began to pack their luggage, fortunately, they knew that this time they went to war, and it was useless to have too much luggage, so except for a few necessary clothes, there was nothing worth packing, and after a moment of effort, everyone gathered outside the store, Xu Lang drank a lot last night, and his head was still a little painful at the moment, but his spirit was excellent, and his slightly pale face had a healthy ruddy appearance for the first time, and the whole person seemed to be a few years younger all of a sudden.

He didn't have any clothes to pack, he just casually asked the store for a package, went back to load a few books, a few rags, of course, his brother Xu Kun also secretly stuffed some silver taels, and the whole package also weighed a little.

Seeing that everyone was packing up, Yang Zheng saw that Xu Lang's horses were not very good, got off the horse, handed the reins to Xu Lang, and said: "The military division has to worry about the situation on weekdays, the body and bones can't be fine, and the road is still bumpy, so take my horse?"

Xu Lang said: "How can you do this, adult!" His throat has whimpered, his reputation is not obvious, he has been down-and-out all the year round, he has long been accustomed to the indifference of others, even if he went to the mansion of the king of Han to be a staff member, the king of Han is not bad to himself, but it seems that this kind of respect is the first time, he is not fake, but whether it is the world or the bureaucrats, they are not treated as dogs, at first he was dissatisfied, but the ruthlessness of the society, the world has long cooled his fiery heart, and unconsciously felt that he was a dog, and at this moment, he suddenly had the feeling of being a man.

He has many wisdoms in his life, and he likes fame, such as astronomy, geography, the art of war, water conservancy, yin and yang, Fangshu is omniscient, conceited and unparalleled, but the imperial examination is not obvious, has long made him forget what the original ideals, plus his ordinary life is wild, not charming to the powerful, when life is down, in addition to being a staff member, he only relies on a pair of brushes, when the world comes to ask for paintings, that is, when he is financially scarce, at this time, if there is a door-to-door painter to invest in gold silk, you can get it in an instant; if there is no shortage of money in his pocket, then you are giving more, it is rare to paint, it is this wind bone, so that he has suffered a lot of white eyes over the years。

When he was lonely, he also inscribed a poem to himself.

Half of his life has become a man, and the independent study is howling in the evening breeze.

The pearl at the bottom of the pen has nowhere to sell, and it is thrown into the wild vines.

This poem looks back on his life journey, encountered ups and downs, and was sad and desolate in his later years, hanging from each other, he fused his grief and indignation and the feeling of not meeting talents into the end of the pen, creating one after another shocking ink paintings. The ink bamboo in his pen, the branches are light and the leaves are light, the bamboo branches are vigorous, the bamboo leaves are prostrate and affectionate, although they belong to the bamboo branches, they are clean and refreshing. This is exactly the glorious portrayal of his being in the lower class, having no talents, noble character, and peerless independent personality. His splashed peony is not limited to the rich and elegant characteristics of the peony, the color is gorgeous, but he often paints it in ink, deliberately changing its nature, and its purpose is to give the peony an elegant and refined style and charm. He thought that he was afraid that he would end up here, and he would have no chance to show his talents, and he lamented, but he was helpless.

, I didn't expect God to be thin on him, so that he had this opportunity in his twilight years, he knew that this was his last chance to show his talents, so he was extraordinarily serious, and he was extraordinarily excited, sweeping away the decadence of the past, and the whole person became a lot younger because of this opportunity, but many years of staff career has already made him develop the habit of being a dog, and he suddenly became a human again, so how can he not be excited.

"My lord......" Xu Lang whimpered, and his whole body began to tremble because of excitement.

Yang Zheng stared at him and said, "I said that the military advisor is a peerless national soldier, and I should treat him as a peerless national soldier...... Don't shirk this horse!"

Xu Lang saw that he had made up his mind, so he stretched out his trembling arm, grabbed the reins handed over by Yang Zheng tightly, looked at the figure of Yang Zheng who turned away, and muttered: "You treat me as a national warrior, and I, Xu Lang, will live up to the grace of adults in this life!"

Huang Fu and Zhang Ben each glanced at each other, and sighed lightly: "In this life, Xu Lang is afraid that he will not forget this scene today until he dies!"

Gao Hang said in his heart: "This little brother Yang really has good means, he sent a horse, and got the loyalty of a national warrior, ...... this deal?"

Shen Yanqiu is beautiful eyes flashed, among all the people, she was the only one who knew that Yang Zheng sent the horse, but she couldn't bear Xu Lang's age to bump with her.

The group got on the horses, and with Yang Zheng's order, they each turned over and got on their horses, and went straight to Annan along the official road.

On this trip, Yang Zheng got Xu Lang, and this place is not far from Annan, so he has been running for many days, and he has also let go of a lot, and he laughed with everyone casually along the way.

The atmosphere was also much more harmonious, Xu Lang gradually became harmonious, and there were a lot more conversations, out of the kindness of the Han Wangfu in the past, he still simply asked a few words about the scene of the Han Wang.

After learning that the King of Han was locked in Xiaoyao City, he didn't know what to do, tried to hurt the emperor, and was suffocated to death, except for a sigh, he didn't speak again.

Hekou County already borders Annam, and most of the people are fast horses who travel thousands of miles a day, so they entered the border of Annam in just one day.

Yang Zheng saw that it was not early, and knew that he would not be able to reach Jiaozhou today no matter what, so he reined in the reins of the horse and turned back to everyone: "Everyone has been on the road for a day, and they are also very tired, it is better to fix it here for one night, and go to Jiaozhou early tomorrow morning!"

Gao Hangdao: "It's okay, anyway, Jiaozhou is not far from here, and it's not too late to go again tomorrow?"

Huang Fu is old, and he can't stand this bump for a long time, but if Lord Jingluo doesn't speak, he can't say anything, and besides, he is indeed going to Annan for military affairs, he is always older, but he is not so vulnerable, so he gritted his teeth and didn't gnaw, and at this time he listened to Yang Zheng's words, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Lang is also tired, but he has been a staff member all the year round, and his life is hard, and the staff sometimes has to do some physical work, such as reading military books and bamboo slips, etc., but he has developed a good body.

Zhang Ben and Shen Yanqiu were still young, and the bumpy day did not have much impact, but the two of them listened to Yang Zheng's words and nodded.

After Gao Hang received the order, he had already gone to visit the restaurant, so that everyone could rest and eat some water and wine.

Yang Zheng and the others waited with the reins of their horses, and soon heard Gao Hang's shout, and everyone turned their horses' heads and rushed over along with the sound.

In the dark night, there was a bright light first, and then the light became bigger and bigger, and after walking a few steps, everyone's eyes lit up, and when they looked up, they saw a small two-story attic standing under a big banyan tree in a house, the banyan tree was huge, the trunk was as thick as two horses' bellies, and countless branches stretched out in all directions, hiding the two-story small building in a leaf, revealing a bit of mystery.

Yang Zheng still has a bit of literati in his bones, and seeing that this restaurant is also exquisite, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "The wind blows the smoke cage and the brocade is shining, and the festival is growing at the beginning of the peacetime." It can add the courage of heroes and heroes, and be good at understanding the sorrow of beautiful women. Outside the three-foot weeping willow, a pole is obliquely planted next to the apricot blossoms. The boy failed in his life, and Lego sang into a drunken country. ”

Xu Lang laughed and said, "Good poem, if it is accompanied by a storytelling, it will be a big second?"

Huang Fu said: "This is simple!" After speaking, he said in a deep voice: "In the past, there was a virtuous man who wrote a slogan and just talked about the wine. The Tao is: All the evil has been returned to wine, and I have a word for the world. Earth, water, fire, and wind synthesize people, and the face is curled with rice water and alcohol. The wine is silent in the bottle, and there is no mouth when people are not drunk. Who said that a child is a drunkard, and he is as glutinous as a dog when he has not heard of food. How to let go of three cups, so that the four big ones do not have their own! A few people can't taste trickle, and a few people drink three hundred buckets at a time. There are also eye-catching fanatics, and there are also people who are not fallacious. The sages and saints in the wine are passed on, and the people are negative because of the wine. There is a saying that if you don't get drunk, you get drunk. But if you drink alcohol, you can't enjoy it, as the saying goes: - Wine can make things happen, wine can ruin things - even the cowardly eat, and also do boldness, let alone the high-sex people?"

When everyone heard it, it was the story of "Water Margin" that was circulated in the market, which was written by a down-and-out official named Shi Naiyan, who was born in Xinghua, Jiangsu. The family is poor. When he was a child, he went to Suzhou with his father. He has been smart and studious since he was a child, good at poetry and writing, and has outstanding talents. At the age of thirteen, he studied at Hushuguan near Suzhou. At the age of twenty-nine, he was promoted to the middle school, and at the age of thirty, he went to the Yuan Metropolitan Examination and failed. Recommended by a friend, he went to Yuncheng, Shandong Province as a trainer. In Shandong, he searched all over the heroic deeds of Song Jiang and others near Liangshanbo, and became familiar with the customs and customs of Shandong.

In the second year of Yuan Mingzong's reign, Shi Nai'an was admitted to the Jinshi at the age of 35 and went to Qiantang (now Hangzhou) to serve as the county Yin. But after only two years, he returned to Suzhou angrily because he was dissatisfied with the powerful in power, dissatisfied with the darkness of officialdom, and unwilling to meet the powerful. After Zhang Shicheng's peasant uprising team occupied Suzhou, Shi Nai'an joined Rong and became Zhang Shicheng's staff, which made him familiar with the barracks life of the peasant rebel army and many leaders of the rebel army. Later, he found that Zhang Shicheng and other leaders were becoming more and more arrogant, and they were expected to be defeated in the future, so they left Zhang Shicheng's department and lived in the area of Heyang Mountain in Changshu and Zhutang in Jiangyin to teach for a living, and devoted themselves to creating "Water Margin".

This book is written with exquisite writing and wonderful shapes, creating one hundred and hundred reckless heroes, and it is widely circulated among the people after the book is completed. Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry when he saw this book, and soon Shi Nai'an was arrested and imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department. Later, with the help of Liu Ji, he was released from medical treatment, and his disciple Luo Guanzhong was taken to Huai'an to temporarily recuperate, and continued to sort out the "Water Margin".

Huang Fu loves "Water Margin" very much on weekdays, and it is not difficult to sing such a paragraph casually at this time, and when he sees everyone's surprised expressions, he knows that he has gone too far.

Fortunately, no one cared, talking about the heroic deeds of "Water Margin", and walked into the restaurant.

There are a lot of lanterns hanging on the big banyan tree in front of the door, Yang Zheng has a visual inspection, not to mention twenty or thirty lights, all of which are the kind of red lanterns, which illuminate the whole restaurant as bright as day for a while, Yang Zheng said in his heart: "It seems that this restaurant is willing to spend silver, just these twenty or so lanterns, it also costs a lot of silver"!

Entering the banyan tree, the eyes involuntarily attracted by the two-storey building in front of you, the floor is not high, the russet wood is precisely matched, with bricks and stones, quite a bit of the charm of the Song Dynasty restaurant.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Previous chapter about the country of Ailao: All the beginnings of the country of Ailao begin with a myth and legend about a woman named Shaju, who became pregnant when she went to the river to fish and sank into the water, and gave birth to ten sons. Later, Shen Mu turned into a dragon and asked "Where is my son?" The nine sons were frightened away, but the only young son did not go, and sat on his back with the dragon, so he was named Jiulong. When Jiulong grew up, Xiong Ji was outstanding and was promoted to be the king. At that time there was a woman named Nuboxi, who also had ten daughters, and all the brothers of Jiulong took them as wives, and their children and grandchildren multiplied, and they were scattered in the valley. After Jiulong's death, the generations followed one after another, and Xiao Wang was separated. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Xinuluo's father took refuge in Mengshechuan from Ailao, cultivated at the foot of the Weishan Mountain, and the local White King married his daughter to Xinuluo and gave way to him, which is the founding myth of the people. It is said that the flower waist Dai left in the mountains of Ailao is one of the Jiulong brothers.

Liu Maung, the descendant of the King of Jiulong in the ancient mourning country. He reigned in the middle of the first century A.D. and was a key figure in a pivotal period in the history of Baoshan. In the twelfth year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Maung led 77 Yi kings, more than 50,000 households, and more than 550,000 people to join the ranks of the Chinese nation on their own initiative, so that the ancient Baoshan stepped into the threshold of feudalism from a slave society. The Han Dynasty took advantage of the situation and took this opportunity to implement the county governance to the entire Ailao Land of "3,000 miles from east to west and 4,600 miles from north to south", and set up Yongchang County under unified jurisdiction. In order to show the merits of Liu Maung's subordinates, Han Ming gave him the "Wailao Wang Zhang" with a nature and font similar to the "Seal of the King of Dian" given by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and held a grand court celebration.

So what is "mourning" and why is it called the name mourning?

The Dai people, the descendants of the "mourning people", read the smell as "mourning" and the wine as "prison". In this way, "mourning" is the smell or smell of wine. It means "big wine", which is similar to the meaning of "drunken bag" today. The descendants of the Ailao people, such as the "Kara" who lives in present-day Myanmar, call the water "also" and the wine "ah also", in which the "ah" is the smell of wine, which is still not far from the "mourning" of nearly 2,000 years ago, and the inheritance relationship is very obvious; in addition, after the old neighbor of the Ailao people, the Dai people now say that the wine is "prison" and the wine is "mourning". Because of this, which place with a strong alcohol smell can be called "Ailao", so the name "Ailao Mountain" can not be in western Yunnan but in central and southern Yunnan.

The Dai people, the descendants of the "mourning people", also have the meaning of "mourning" as the "boss", and the male boss of the Dai nationality is generally called "mourning XX", so "mourning" should be a person's name. There is also a king named "Ailao" in the lineage of the king of Ailao recorded in the historical records.

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Ailao" said, "In the twenty-seventh year of Jianwu (51 AD), Xianli and others led 2,770 people, and 17,659 mouths. "In the twelfth year of Yongping, Liu Maung, the king of Ailao, sent his son to lead the people of the inner subordinate, and he was called the king of seventy-seven people, with a household of fifty-one thousand eight hundred and ninety, and a mouth of fifty-fifty-three thousand seven hundred and eleven; It can be seen that Ailao is a "race", that is, a race.

In the "Historical Records", there is no "Wailao Country", nor is there the word "Wailao". However, in western Yunnan and northern Burma, there are place names in the "Historical Records" - there is the country of "Yunnan Yue", the east of "Yunnan Yue" has "Tong (Tong) Division", the east of "Tongshi" has "Wang" and "Kunming", and the north of "Wang" and "Kunming" has "Yuyu". Placed on the current place name, "Dianyue" is Dehong, Tengchong, Longling and neighboring Burmese places west of the Nujiang River, "Tongshi" is Baoshan, Changning, Shidian and other places east of the Nujiang River, "Net" is Yongping, Yunlong area, "Kunming" is Xiaguan, Midu, Weishan and other places near Erhai Lake, and "Qiyu" is the north of Dali Prefecture to Lijiang.

According to the "Historical Records": "...... The king of Dian tasted Qiang and stayed for the sake of seeking the Tao, and at the age of four he was closed in Kunming (now Dali, Yunnan), and finally could not pass. However, I heard that it can be more than 1,000 miles to the west, there is a country of elephants, called Yunnan Yue, and Shu Jia rapes people or Zhiyan. "The Dian Kingdom has been confirmed to be in the Dianchi area, more than 1,000 miles west from the Dianchi Lake, which happens to be today's Baoshan, that is, the Ailao Country. It can be inferred from this that the "Yunnan Yue Xiangxiang Country" is the "Mourning Country".

In the "Historical Records," even the "Yelang Country" is mentioned, why is there no such thing as "Ailao Country" or "Ailao"? According to common sense, as long as the "Ailao" is objective, it is impossible for him not to know it, so there is only one possibility to regard the Ailao Country as the "Yunnan Yue Xiangguo."

The Book of the Continuation of the Han Dynasty was compiled by Sima Biao of the Western Jin Dynasty, in which the "Chronicles of the County of Yongchang County" said: "Yongchang County, eight cities, 231,897 households, 1,897,344 mouths. Buwei out of the iron, Wangtang, Bisu, Yu, Evil Dragon, Yunnan, Ailao (Yongping Zhongzhi, so Ailao Kingdom), Bonan (Yongping Zhongzhi), the southern boundary of gold. ”

"Ailao Kingdom" appears in the interpretation, and it is only the interpretation of the city of Ailao, therefore, it can only be determined that in front of Ailao County, the residence of the Ailao King is there, that is, the capital city, where the leader of the tribal alliance is located.

"Huayang National Chronicles" was compiled by Chang Xuan, a native of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which said a lot about "mourning" and "mourning country".

"Nanzhong Zhi Yongchang County" describes the legend of "Jiulong", the southern attack of "Lu Mao", the return of Xianli to Han, and the return of Liu Maung to Han, etc., which are more systematic.

"Nanzhong Zhi Yongchang County" said: "Yongchang County, the ancient mourning prison country. He also said, "Wailao, the name of the mountain." The relationship between today's "Ailao Mountain" and the ancient "Ailao Country" has been somewhat complicated, and today's researchers can often only force their arguments, but it is difficult to convince people.

"Nanzhong Zhi Yongchang County" clearly says that the "Ailao" people are "people", that is, a race; their state system is not perfect, "separate little kings", such as tribal chiefs, therefore, Xianli who first returned to the Han is the "king", and Liu Maung, who returned to the Han Dynasty later, is also a "king", but the population led by Xianli is only more than 10,000 people, and he is a small king, and there are "seventy-seven people who are called kings" under Liu Maung, with a population of "five hundred and fifty-three thousand seven hundred and eleven", which is obviously a "big king" (the leader of the tribal alliance).

"Nanzhong Zhi Yongchang County" said that during the period of filial piety, the Lancang River (Lancang River) was used to take the land of Ailao, and the two counties of Wangtang and Buwei were placed, and the two counties of Ailao and Bonan were placed after Liu Maung returned to the Han Dynasty, and the "Ailao Country" had a complete picture: there were four counties on the ground of "Ailao", which were about the two places of "Tongshi" and "Wang" in the "Historical Records".

There is a saying in "Nanzhong Zhi Yongchang County": "Its land is three thousand miles from east to west, and four thousand six hundred miles from north to south." "Nanzhong Zhi Yongchang County" only says that the mourning prison returns to the Han, not that the mourning prison is against the Han, so this statement still needs to be demonstrated.

The Book of the Later Han Dynasty was compiled by Fan Ye, a Song man in the Northern and Southern Dynasties. In the book, "The Legend of Ailao" also has the legend of "Jiulong", the southern attack on "Lu Mao", the return of Xianli to the Han, the return of Liu Maung to the Han, etc., and there are seven years after Liu Maung returned to the Han Dynasty, the record of the rebellion of the king of Ailao is more comprehensive and objective and true.

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Ailao" gives the "Ailao" a complete appearance: the Ailao people live in Baoshan, Changning, Shidian, Yongping, Yunlong and other places, and have not established a perfect national system, and the tribal chiefs are called kings, and the leaders of the tribal alliances are also called kings. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he took Baoshan, Changning, Shidian and other places, and set up two counties of Wangtang and Buwei, and the vitality of Ailao was injured, so it declined; in the twelfth year of Yongping, the king of Ailao Liuxiang returned to the Han Dynasty, and Xianzong placed two counties of Ailao and Bonan with his land; in the first year of the establishment, the king of Ailao was against the Han Dynasty; in the second year, he was sentenced to a peaceful sentence.
