The frightened wind hit the yellow sand and walked, and the west went out of Cuihan to get rid of the dirt. The king came from ancient Xuzhou, and the sound vibrated the river Tong Yin Pass right. The ten-mile long pavilion hears the drum horn, and a beautiful river is bright and willowy. The north is close to the flying threshold and the yellow stream, and the south looks at the green mountains like the head. The east wind blows the splendid valley, and the water turns the wine of Pu grapes. The court opened the bottle, and the passers-by were like clouds and closed their mouths.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, a pavilion was set up every ten miles, and there was a short pavilion every five miles in the future, where was the pedestrian, and relatives and friends often said goodbye here.

The same was true in the Song Dynasty, and there were also ten-mile long pavilions or five-mile short pavilions outside the city. Generally speaking, the degraded officials of the imperial court have to pass by here and stay for a while, and relatives, friends, and protégés of the deceased officials also set up some simple wine and food here to say goodbye to the degraded officials.

Ten miles of long pavilion road, away from people's tears. Send you ten miles of long pavilion, fold the weeping willows of the Ba Bridge!

The so-called long or short pavilions, that is, ordinary pavilions made of stone or wood, with square or hexagonal points, have become a place of farewell, and even a place to vent their feelings of dissatisfaction, depression, sadness, and regret (qíng).

"Sir, it's time to move (shēn)." At this time, in a long pavilion outside the city of Kaifeng Mansion, an old servant said to Zhang Dan, the former prime minister of the Song Dynasty.

"Let's go." Zhang Dian took one last look at the towering city of Kaifeng Mansion, which was still clearly visible in the distance, and said with a long sigh.

Zhang Dun, who was in his sixties, looked unusually old at this time, and his hair had to be completely white in just a few months, and the tall and burly (shēn) material in Ping (rì) also looked unusually rickety at this time, and it seemed that he had become a little shorter in a short period of time.

During his tenure as a mountain envoy, there was an accident, and the coffin of the first emperor Zhao Xu accidentally fell into a mountain stream and soaked for a whole night.

After Zhang Dian returned to the dynasty in gloom, the speech officials and imperial historians controlled by Zeng Bu and Cai Bian, Zuo Zhengyan Chen Qian and other speech officials and imperial historians rose up to attack him, impeaching Zhang Dian for the crimes of abolition, great disrespect, and reckless use of swords, and even impeached him for dominating the government and the opposition, controlling the government and government, and misconducting.

Under the unanimous impeachment of the ministers, the new emperor Zhao Ji deposed the position of prime minister of Zhangdun and demoted him to Yuezhou, and at the same time made him (rì) set off.

At this time, standing in the ten-mile long pavilion, there were only a few people on the side of Zhangdun (shēn) who went to Yuezhou, and a few of them were Zhangdun's family members.

The world is so cold, why is this so?

It is said that the new emperor Zhao Ji deeply hated Zhang Dan, even if the ministers of the court and the central government have the same (qíng) Zhang Dan, but who dares to come to see him off?

I can't hide from it...

When the old servant helped Zhang Dian (yù) to board a carriage, suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the sound of hooves was getting closer and closer, and Zhang Dian and the others looked at the several knights who rushed over in confusion.

Zhangdun's family was unusually nervous, thinking that there was something new in the imperial court? Zhao Ji issued a decree to degrade Zhang Dan again?

This kind of thing (qíng) is not unprecedented, often a degraded official has not yet left Beijing, he has received the will to be degraded again, often a degraded official has not yet arrived at the destination, he will be degraded elsewhere, of course, it cannot be degraded to a nearby place, but degraded farther and farther, until the end of the world, the degraded official is also exhausted, and some degraded officials even die of exhaustion in the middle of the road.

"It's Zhang Lao Xiangguo next to the car?" At this time, a young and heroic knight dismounted, strode up to Zhang Dian and asked.

Several tall and burly knights who came with the young knights also dismounted at the same time (shēn), and there were some wine jars and food boxes on their horses.

Seeing this, Zhangdun's family immediately breathed a sigh of relief, could it be that someone else came to see him off? But then they began to get nervous again, because in the old days there were envoys who brought wine, and invited people to drink first, and then read the degrading decree, and even gave people death...

"The old man is Zhang Dian, who are you?" Zhang Dian asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Xiaguan Lingnan Li Sanjian, meet Zhang Lao Xiangguo." Li Sanjian then saluted Zhang Xuanyi.

Zhang Dian and Li Sanjian have heard of it for a long time, but they have never met, and Li Sanjian has only seen Zhang Tun's back from a distance outside the palace, but he doesn't know what Zhang Dian looks like.

Li Sanjian deliberately added the word Lingnan, just to remind Zhang Dian that he was Li Sanjian, the son of Lingnan who was deposed by him in the tribute in the past...

"What? Li Sanjian? Are you the new champion Li Sanjian? Zhang Duan was taken aback when he heard this, glared at Li Sanjian and asked loudly.

Li Sanjian's name, how could Zhang Dian not know? It's unforgettable, but Zhang Dian has never seen Li Sanjian, even when Li Sanjian (diàn) tried the champion and the first, Zhang Dian has not seen it, the reason is that (diàn) when he tried Zhang Dian as a mountain envoy and was transporting the coffin of the first emperor Zhao Xu...

"Exactly down there." Li Sanjian replied respectfully.

"Champion and Li Sanjian, the old man and you don't know each other, did you come to see the old man's jokes today?" Zhang Dian then twisted his white beard and asked dishappily.

"Old Xiangguo's words are fallacious!" Li Sanjian shook his head and smiled when he heard this: "What kind of person is (shēn) below, what kind of person dares to laugh at Zhang Lao Xiangguo?" In the next is to admire the name of the old Xiangguo for a long time, it is like thunder, and I heard that the old Xiangguo will go to Yuezhou, so I specially rushed to send it off. ”

"Hehe, the old man is just an ancient man." Zhang Dun twisted his beard and said: "There is a little false name, how dare you Lao Zhuangyuan and the first person come to see it off in person?" How dare you be? ”

"The old minister's words are ridiculous! Deserve it, how can you not deserve it? Li Sanjian said with a smile: "The old Xiangguo never gives and receives from each other privately, and he admires him for seven years. Honesty is so unheard of, such a high wind and festival, it deserves the whip and stirrup of the world! ”

Zhang Dian has been alone for seven years, and has never granted official positions to his protégés and relatives, and the four sons of Zhang Dian are all Jinshi and first, but only the third son sat in the position of school secretary, and the rest of the sons are county lieutenants, county orders and the like, for seven years, he has never been greedy for national wealth, and he is a clean breeze and incomparably honest, which makes Li Sanjian extremely admirable.

Of course, Li Sanjian took the liberty to come to see off Zhang Dun, not for this reason.

Sure enough, it was a young man and an old man, and the future was terrifying, Li Sanjian's decent answer made Zhang Dian secretly praise in his heart, and he deserved to be the champion of the new department.

However, Zhang Dian is a straight person, he will say whatever he thinks, and he will spit out whatever he wants, and he rarely holds the words in his stomach.

"Li Zhuangyuan Ding Chouke is the first, this matter was done by the old man, doesn't Zhuangyuanlang hate it in his heart?" So far, Zhang Dian still hasn't figured out Li Sanjian's intention, so Zhang Dian tentatively said.

"Hate, how not hate? It's just gnashing teeth and hating. Li Sanjian didn't say anything, but told the truth: "But after thinking about it later, there is no youth and ignorance.

The reason for the shallowness of knowledge, the so-called empty talk misleads the country, and the lower level is also (qíng) reason. ”

This is Li Sanjian's truth, Shaosheng four years Ding Chou Kegongju, Li Sanjian is not yet seventeen years old, he is too shallow and too reckless to discuss the government. At the same time, I don't know if I don't learn, I was shocked when I learned, and I knew that there was a sky outside the sky and there were people outside the world for a few years in Duanwangfu, and the knowledge in my belly was indeed too superficial.

"The old man remembers that Li Zhuangyuan was not yet seventeen years old, and he was indeed too young." Zhang Dian nodded and said: "The so-called jade is not cut into a weapon, and the old man hesitated for a long time before he did it." ”

The Jinshi and the first, who are less than seventeen years old, must be appalling, but this is a small reason why Li Sanjian was the first to go down that year.

Pull it down, Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart, Li Sanjian didn't believe what Zhang Dian said at this time, it was to temper himself? It is better to speak out, in order to attack political opponents and exclude dissidents.

However, at this time, Li Sanjian had something to ask Zhang Dan, so he smiled and said to Zhang Dan: "Zhang Lao Xianggong, I have prepared some thin wine under the next to show the meaning of sending each other down, how about inviting the old minister to appreciate the light?" ”

"Okay, okay." Zhang Dian nodded and smiled: "The old man is a little thirsty, so let's drink a few cups." ”

Li Sanjian is in his early twenties at this time, and he is also young, if in the past, Zhang Dian may not have paid attention to him at all, but at this time, Li Sanjian made a special trip to see him off, no matter what Li Sanjian's purpose is, he can't refute his face, Zhang Dian secretly said in his heart, and at the same time, Zhang Dian also wanted to find out what Li Sanjian meant.

Li Sanjian smiled when he heard this.

"Father." At this time, Zhang Xuan, the third son of Zhang Dian on the side, looked at Li Sanjian suspiciously, stopped in front of Zhang Xuan, and said, "Father, so... Not quite right? ”

"What for?" Zhang Dian glared at Zhang Zhu and said, "What kind of person is Li Zhuangyuan?" Are you still afraid that wine is poisonous? ”

"Shankui, Xu Biao, take it." Li Sanjian glanced at Zhang Zhi with a smile and said to Shankui and Xu Biao.

Poisoning in wine? As for it? Li Sanjian couldn't cry or laugh, poisoning Zhang Dun might win Zhao Ji's favor, but it would definitely cause shock to the government and the opposition, so he would ruin his future, and at the same time he would be convicted and imprisoned, how could Li Sanjian do such a naïve thing? No matter what kind of grudge he has with Zhang Dan, this matter must not be done.

Shan Kui sandwiched a wine jar in one hand, Xu Biao carried a food box in one hand, and walked to the long pavilion without half an effort, and began to place dishes, chopsticks, wine cups and other things.

"What a strong servant!" Zhang Dian looked at the mountain kui with the tiger's back and Xu Biao praised.

"Lao Xiangguo's words are wrong, these two are the elder brothers, not slaves." Li Sanjian said with a smile.

"I see." Zhang Dian said: "The old man sees these two as (jìn) people in the army? ”

"Old Xiangguo has good eyesight." Li Sanjian nodded and said, "They are in the Hidden Fire Army." ”

"Hidden fire? Wouldn't it be condescending for such a strong man to return to the latent fire? Zhang Dian smiled.

Li Sanjian smiled and shook his head.

"This first glass of wine will respect the old man first, the road is far away, and the old minister must take care." The wine and food were quickly arranged, and Li Sanjian said after picking up a bottle of wine.

In the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city of Song Kaifeng Mansion, an old man and a young man pushed a cup and drank it.
