Chapter 14 Jiangnan

Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, and tourists only meet Jiangnan Lao.

The spring water is blue in the sky, and the boat is painted to listen to the rain.

The people on the edge are like the moon, and the frost and snow are condensed on the wrists.

If you are not old, you must return to your hometown, and you must break your intestines when you return to your hometown.

The scenery of Jiangnan has always been picturesque, and many literati and artists will write some poems and songs to praise the scenery of Jiangnan.

Jiangnan people are outstanding, and there are countless beauties that are smudged like ink.

Lan Weishu arrived in Jiangnan a few days ago after receiving the holy decree, and is now taking a leisurely walk in the ordinary alleys of Jiangnan. Accompanied by a small sesame official in Jiangnan, Lan Weishu has been courteous in the past few days, Lan Weishu is very disdainful of this, but there is still no expression on his face.

At present, the place where Lan Weishu is staying is still a long distance away from the flooded Lancang River, because although the floods in the south of the Yangtze River have not affected the lives of the people here for the time being.

Carved beams and painted buildings, singing and dancing, the hazy Jiangnan has another charm.

The corners and alleys are full of warm beauties with slender waists, white clothes and black hair, holding oil-paper umbrellas, walking on the noisy and silent bluestone slabs, quiet and peaceful.

"Lord Mo, this Jiangnan is really a good place, full of green willows and flowers. Living in this kind of place, life should be particularly chic and comfortable, Weishu is really envious. ”

The envoy laughed, this Jiangnan is indeed beautiful, but the prosperity is far less than one-third of Kyoto. Xiaguan really wants to go to Kyoto to see the customs of Kyoto, but unfortunately I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity in this life. There was a sigh in his tone.

Lan Weishu couldn't hear that this was a hint to him, asking him to help find a good errand in Kyoto, so that he could move his family to Kyoto and enjoy the prosperity in Kyoto.

Such hints could often be heard these days, and his ears were almost out of the calluse.

Lan Weishu smiled and played Tai Chi, pretending not to understand the implicit meaning of the words.

"Master Mo is really modest, according to my opinion, this prosperous film and television in Jiangnan is better than Kyoto, who in Dali does not know that Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, most of the tax revenue of the imperial court every year comes from Jiangnan, and there are countless rich businessmen in Jiangnan, and even more can be called rich and rival countries. In addition to being located at the foot of the Son of Heaven, our Kyoto is not as good as Jiangnan. ”

"Hehe, the envoy is really good at laughing." Mo Wen smiled awkwardly, I really don't know if this envoy has a bad brain, these days he has been eating and drinking for him, so he thinks that he can find a good errand for him when he returns to Beijing, so that he can leave this ghost place early.

If the flood is so strict, I don't know when it will be cured, and if it aggravates the disaster, I'm afraid that the black veil on his head will be lost sooner or later, so it is better to seize the opportunity to transfer out of Jiangnan.

Lan Weishu looked at Mo Wen carefully, and soon knew what Mo Wen was thinking.

In other words, Mo Wen was still very satisfied when he was first transferred to Jiangnan, as Lan Weishu said, Jiangnan is indeed prosperous, and he has been on an errand in Jiangnan all these years, even if he is just a small, small sesame official, he has reaped a lot of benefits.

If it weren't for the strict flooding in Jiangnan this year, the higher authorities ordered that the floods must be rectified, and Mo Wen bought this petty official with money at the beginning, and there was no ink in his stomach.

Hearing that he was going to be involved in the treatment of the flood, he was afraid of exposing his chest without ink, so he wanted to leave here quickly, if it wasn't for this stubble, I'm afraid Mo Wen wouldn't want to leave.

The emperor is far away from the sky, and he is so rich, if he leaves here, it is estimated that he will not be able to make any oil and water in other places.

"The abacus has come to me, I really don't know how thick the sky is." Lan Weishu sneered in his heart, but his tone changed, "Master Mo, I've been here in Jiangnan for a few days, it's time to go and see the situation of the flood, otherwise the emperor will know, and you and I won't be able to eat and walk around." ”

"Yes, yes, but the lower officials see that it is getting late today, so it is better for the special envoy to rest for one night, and the lower official will take the special envoy to the Lancang River early tomorrow morning to have a look, and by the way, discuss the problem of flood rectification."

"So let's do it first." Lan Weishu replied lazily.

……

At night, Lan Weishu received a flying pigeon from Seventeen at the place where he stayed.

When Zhan Xin saw it, Lan Weishu's lips were actually soothing.

Early the next morning, Mo Wen really came to Lan Weishu's place early, saying that it was a qiē ready, and asked Lan Weishu to set off immediately when he was ready.

Lan Weishu didn't put up a shelf, and after a moment of tidying up, he stepped out of the door.

When he saw the carriage waiting on the road, the smile on his lips narrowed a little.

"What do you mean, Lord Mo? Now that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River are so severe, the people are dying because of it, do you want to go to inspect the disaster in a carriage? ”

Mo Wen quickly knelt down and confessed, "The envoy is angry, the lower official is just worried that the special envoy will not be able to ride a horse, so the carriage arranged, if the special envoy can ride a horse, the lower official will order someone to prepare a few high-quality horses, and ensure that within two hours, we will arrive at the Lancang River." ”

"It's that the envoy misunderstood Lord Mo, and the envoy thought that Lord Mo was deliberately delaying the envoy's time so that he could arrange something else, I'm really sorry." Lan Weishu immediately burst into a smile, but this smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

Mo Wen heard Lan Weishu's words, and his heart trembled, isn't this envoy what does he know?

No, it shouldn't be possible, he's just a playboy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and for so many days, it's not like I've been taking him around every day, where is there any worry about the people?

Now like this, I'm afraid that I'm blaming me for smearing his face, too, let the emperor know that he comes to Jiangnan every day to eat, drink and have fun, which will definitely make the emperor angry.

Thinking of this, Mo Wen instantly calmed down.

Quickly ordered people to prepare a few high-quality horses, and then Lan Weishu and the others turned over and got on their horses, leaving only a burst of dust.

When they came to the Lancang River, just after noon, a few people found an inn at random, had some food, and went to the embankment of the Lancang River to check the situation.

After some routine questions, Lan Weishu and the others left the Lancang River and lived in Gao Jinbai's mansion.

Kofu.

The decoration of Gaofu is no different from ordinary people, but it covers an area a little larger, just enter the door is a front hall, a place specially used to entertain guests, and a small garden at the back, but did not plant all kinds of flowers, but planted some dog tail grass, this season is verdant and lovely.

Under the leadership of Gao Jinbai, Lan Weishu visited the Gao Mansion, the whole Gao Mansion was very warmly arranged, and on the long corridor that entered the backyard, that is, the place where the female dependents lived, some Xiangfei bamboos were planted on both sides, giving people a beautiful and clear feeling.

It is said that to look at a person's character, you can first look at the decorations and trees and flowers planted in the house, and you can see a person's character and character from it.

Lan Weishu felt that Gao Jinbai should be a person who was honest and upright, indifferent to fame and fortune, and devoted himself to the well-being of the people.

The favorability of this tall man suddenly rose to a new level, and this favorability reached its peak when he saw the calligraphy hanging in the tall man's study.

No way, Lan Weishu is a character control, he likes a person who writes well, he thinks that words are like his people, revealing a spirit of spirit.

The beginning and the end are all with each stroke bone. As the lyrics say:

Wild and to speak of the charm of writing cursive

The head of the silkworm and the tail of the swallow contain the figure of the official book

The book must be done in one go, and the rules cannot be messed up

"Mr. Gao's calligraphy is really good, I admire the book to the extreme, but I have a reluctant request from the book, I hope Mr. Gao can fulfill it."

"The envoy is really polite, I don't know what is going on, Jinbai will do his best to help."

"This is really a little embarrassing, do not hide from the tall people, the book since childhood admired good calligraphy people, has always liked to collect the calligraphy of the famous masters, today in the house to see this pen and ink, the heart is really unbearable, so please also Gao adults bear the pain of love, give me this pen and ink is good?"

"Xia Guan thought it was a big deal, I can't hide it, this is a book written by my wife, since the envoy likes it, Xia Guan will order someone to take it down and give it to the special envoy."

Gao Jinbai immediately asked the subordinates in the house to take down the pen and ink hanging on the wall, and after carefully rolling it, he handed it to Lan Weishu.

"It turned out to be Mrs. Mobao, it seems that Mrs. is also a high-spirited woman, this iron painting silver hook, it is really more than a point is fat, less than a point is thin, not at all with the femininity of ordinary women. Dare to ask where Mrs. Gao is now, can she come out and see her? It is really hard to imagine that this is from a woman, and Weishu knows that this request may be a little rude, but he really wants to see Mrs. Gao. ”

Gao Jinbai, as Lan Weishu judged, is indeed honest and very bold, hearing Lan Weishu's words, he did not criticize him for being rude, but smiled and asked his subordinates to go to the backyard to bring Mrs. and Miss over together, and said that there was a visitor.

Mrs. Gao is also a neat woman, and she has already appeared in the front hall in a short time.

Dressed in aqua blue regular clothes, the cuffs have been changed to the style of small feet, which are close to the wrists, and there is no inherent gentleness and coquettishness of Jiangnan women when walking, and the cuffs of small feet add a heroic posture.

The woman who followed her was wearing a light green shirt, and there were no complicated and gorgeous patterns on the shirt, only a few Xiangfei bamboos were embroidered at the right hem of the corner of the clothes.

It's just that it's still a little far away, and Lan Weishu only feels that this person's appearance is extremely familiar, and he doesn't recognize the person.
