In the blink of an eye, it is the height of summer, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. And the matter of farewell to the retired officers and soldiers on the lake also spread quickly, making everyone know that the little emperor was recuperating in the Yanxiang Garden of the Lonely Mountain, and naturally attracted many good people to take a cruise ship every day to wander around the lonely mountain for a time, and there were also people who wanted to create a chance encounter to rebel. The pro-guard regiment also strengthened its vigilance, and dispatched the former navy to send warships into the lake to patrol, and all pleasure boats were not allowed to approach within 100 steps of the lonely mountain.

According to the news from the city, after a long discussion about Chen Yizhong's crime, the Queen Mother suddenly issued a decree to give him death in the prison. However, he also remembered that he had made meritorious contributions to support the establishment and did not implicate his family, and gave him a coffin to be sent back to his place of origin by his family, but he also ordered local officials to strictly restrain his family members and not leave his place of origin without permission. Subsequently, the Criminal Department convicted him of complicity, beheaded him in several places, and exposed the bodies of the three people before ordering his family to collect the body and return it to the burial.

Zhao Mengqi was exiled to his family 2,000 miles away for the crime of impersonating his relatives, although he escaped with his life, but the taste of exile was not pleasant, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to survive until the day when he returned home after being pardoned. However, Zhao Yu can also see from this that the Queen Mother has understood that her true identity is true, so she did not kill her, but just exiled her to fend for herself.

After killing Chen Yizhong and disposing of Zhao Mengqi, Zhao Yu thought that he could also end his 'recuperation' and was ready to return to the palace. But he guessed wrong this time, although the Queen Mother relaxed the 'supervision', she did not let herself return to Beijing, which made him very puzzled. But there is no other way but to continue to live a semi-retired and semi-reclusive life.

The hot and humid summer is the most difficult, and the rainy days also make Zhao Yu feel irritable, he looked at the West Lake shrouded in rain and mist in the cool hall, it is also a rare calm at the moment, if the lake is already full of cruise ships on weekdays. Among them, there are hand-rowed wooden paddle boats, small foot boats, bicycle boats, as well as wind boats that rely on wind power, melon skin boats, etc., but this is also divided into six or nine and so on.

The melon skin boat is the largest number of pleasure boats in the West Lake, this kind of boat, the bottom of the boat is shaped like a melon, the cloth canopy is on it, the round table and the rattan chair are placed in the middle, the visitors can taste tea, play chess and talk in the boat, etc., while enjoying the landscape around the West Lake, and achieve the purpose of sightseeing and leisure through the lake; Bicycle boats belong to the more high-end boats, often the royal relatives, the wealthy and the first self-built boats, designed for swimming in the lake, with a green cloth curtain to support, accommodate one or two guests to sit, the decoration is particularly exquisite.

The advantage of West Lake is that it is suitable for people to enjoy all year round. It's just a matter of what you watch and how you want to watch it. As the saying goes: in spring, the flowers and willows compete for beauty, in summer, the lotus pomegranate competes, in autumn the cinnamon is fragrant, in the winter, the plum blossoms break the jade, and the snow flies Yao. The scenery of the four seasons is different, and the pleasure of the people is also endless. The citizens of Beijing learn to make full use of the tourism resources of the West Lake and hold various festivals to celebrate the year, so as to achieve the long-term effect of visiting the West Lake.

Of course, if there is a demand, someone will provide it, and the West Lake cruise ship has long formed an industry, building boats for attractive use. Zhao Hao has seen no less than hundreds of large and small ships. The big one has a thousand materials, about 20 zhang long, and can accommodate 100 people. Five hundred materials, about ten zhang long, can also accommodate thirty or fifty people. Even if it is two or three hundred materials, it is several zhang long, and it can accommodate thirty or twenty people. The boats are all very exquisitely built, carved railings, and the decoration is magnificent, and the boats are large and the lake is like a flat land, just like a modern yacht on the river, providing a one-stop service of eating, drinking and playing.

However, not all of them were wealthy and could afford such high-cost boats, and those small boats did not provide food and drink, so a kind of mobile merchant ship called 'carrying boats' was born. They refer to the various boats in the West Lake that sell food, tea and wine. In addition to soup and fruits, we also offer vegetables, chicken, jellyfish, whelks, and other snacks, and even a banquet attached to the cruise. It can be said that you can enjoy five-star service for only a few small dollars, but Zhao Hao has lived on the edge of the West Lake for so long and has not had the opportunity to enjoy it.

"Official, if you catch up with this weather many years ago, everyone will complain about the Lin'an Prefect!" Seeing that the little emperor was depressed, Wang De had nothing to say to relieve his boredom.

"Oh, and this matter, what does this weather change have to do with the prefect?" Zhao Yu was a little surprised when he heard this, and wondered in his heart whether this prefect still has to care about God, and not everyone can do it in such a Lin'an prefect.

"The official family, think that when Chengping was in peace, the rich and noble families would buy a boat, and each had its own name, saying: Hundred Flowers, Ten Kinds of Brocade, Seven Treasures, Jinjin, Golden Lion, He Boat, Bad Horse, Luo Chuan, Jin Sheng, Yellow Boat, Dong Boat, Liu Boat, its name is very many, it can be described as a thousand strange, when the Lin'an prefect is Zhao Jiezhai, he is not exempt from vulgarity, but also built a lake boat, called Oolong." Wang De saw that it really aroused the interest of the little emperor, and sold a pass, "But every time this boat is stretched out of the port, it will suddenly rise in wind and rain, and the storm on the lake will be great, and the boaters are all afraid, and it is still like this after repeated trials, so this lake boat will be abandoned on the shore and become waste." ”

"Hehe, there is such a miracle, this ship is still there?" Zhao Yu only knew that this was the reason, and asked with a smile.

"After so many years of the official family, I'm afraid that the oolong ship has long been turned into rotten wood and there is no trace to be found!" Seeing that His Majesty smiled, Wang De said with a bitter face.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity!" Zhao Hao heard this, but he was heartbroken and said regretfully.

"The world says that this ship is ominous, why is it destroyed, and the official family says it's a pity?" Wang De didn't understand now, and asked with a frown.

"Eh, if we get this ship, won't it be the wind and the rain, and as long as we sail the ship out during the battle, won't we defeat the enemy without wasting a single shot? It's a pity that such a sharp weapon is left to waste! Zhao Yu nodded at Wang De's nose and said.

"That's a pity!" Wang De also immediately cried and said with a sad face.

"Stupid, I mean that those rich and noble families, who can enjoy the smoke and waves a few times a year old, and wander around Puyu all day long, are just disturbed by the red dust and compare with each other, but they have to waste a lot of resources. Even this garden is the same, the first emperor was only fortunate once or twice in his life, but it took a lot of manpower and financial resources to maintain it, wasting the country's children. Zhao Hao sighed.

"Yes, yes, what the official said is extremely true. They are just showing off to each other, not understanding the people's suffering, where is the Shangguan family thrifty and sympathetic to the people's strength. Wang De hurriedly responded.

"Have you ever seen the first emperor sail on a lake?" Zhao Yu thought about it and said.

"The official family, Emperor Ningzong is in the palace, but there are few lucky things, and the annex to the palace is not repaired, so the small ones have no chance to see it in person. However, there were imperial boats on the West Lake for the use of the emperor, his concubines and princes. Wang De replied, "The royal boat hangs a curtain of beads, hanging seven treasure beads, dragon boats, shuttles, poles, flower baskets and other things. The palace is like a fairy, the fragrance is strong, the flowers and willows are avoided, and it is very gorgeous. ”

"According to the rumors of the old people in the palace, Emperor Lizong also tried to make a boat, and used fragrant nan wood and gold for it, which was also extremely luxurious, and then he didn't use it once, but the small one had never seen it. Although the small one has not seen the first emperor to visit the West Lake, but has been fortunate to see the princess of the Han Kingdom, together with the horse Duwei Yang Zhen Pan Lake, the cultural relics are also prosperous for a while, as if the old of Chengping, the city is overlooked, all people are out of the market, although the scene has been many years, but it is still in front of you. ”

"Looks like I'm going to have to build a royal ship before I can go down to the lake!" Zhao Yu said with a wry smile when he heard this, the root of this extravagant wind is actually still in the royal family, which is why there is an upward and downward effect, if it is in peacetime, it can also promote consumption and develop the tertiary industry, but if you still have the heart to do these things under the pressure of the enemy, you are looking for death.

"The official family should indeed build one, so as to show the royal majesty, and it can also be prepared for the queen mother to swim in the lake!" Wang De said with a smile when he heard this.

"Okay, tomorrow you will be responsible for driving the Sheji to me in the West Lake, and you will be able to press all the cruise ships in the lake to see who can compare with me!" Zhao Yu sneered.

"Official, where does the little one have that ability!" Wang De couldn't wait to slap himself a few times when he heard this, why did he always talk too much today and make the little emperor unhappy!

"I want to swim in the lake now, you go and arrange it immediately, if it is delayed, I will let you guard the garden on this lonely mountain for the rest of your life." Zhao Yu said with a straight face.

"This ...... This, the small one will be arranged! Wang De looked at the little emperor staring at him with a cold face, was stunned for a moment, and replied stubbornly......

Two quarters of an hour later, Wang De came to invite His Majesty to board the ship, Zhao Yu had already changed into a regular uniform, and the guards around him had already taken off their military uniforms, all of them were dressed as servants, but it was difficult to hide the murderous aura on their bodies after changing their clothes, and they looked like a group of evil servants accompanying a young master on a trip. Surrounded by everyone, he came to the dock on the island, and couldn't help but smile when he saw his pleasure boat. From the ministers of the court to the ordinary soldiers in the army, everyone knows that this warrior with a dragon's head is their own car, so isn't it like hiding their ears and stealing the bell.

"Your Majesty, please come aboard!" Zheng Yong looked at the little emperor with a bitter face, and smiled and said.

"The official, it's not that it's not a small incompetence, it's just that I couldn't find a suitable cruise ship for a while, so I had to borrow this boat." Wang De said with a sad face. Just now, the little emperor strictly ordered himself to decorate, but he was taught a lesson that he naturally couldn't go to the boat on the lake, and it was not safe to say otherwise. After thinking about it, he still went to Zheng Yong for help, but what could he do, he could only use the warship that His Majesty was on schedule.

"It's rude and don't know how elegant it is, and now it seems that you are even more of a cow chewing peonies, and you can actually think of using a warship as a pleasure boat, but it may be a good story in the future!" Zhao Yu shook his head, shook off Wang De's hand and jumped onto the boat. When he got on the boat, he saw that in addition to the oarsmen, only a group of guards and a few people around him followed the boat, but fortunately he didn't bring all the gunners, or he really thought that he was going to bombard the West Lake!

It is not the first time that Zhao Yu has been cruising on a dragon boat, a while ago in Ezhou, he was still eating fish and drinking wine with Wen Tianxiang and others on the river, so everyone already knew how to arrange it. The guards were all on guard on the bilge and the second floor, only Wang De took a few little yellow doors and palace maids to serve on the third floor, and the rest were Zheng Yong, Chen Dun and the not very popular Yang Shilong.

The top cabin of the Warrior was the command room, and everyone had already opened all the portholes and hatches, and it was still bright, and they could barely overlook the lake. In accordance with the habits of the little emperor, soft couches and low tables have been arranged, seasonal fruits have been placed, and a charcoal stove has been arranged on the side for making tea, and irrelevant items have been packed aside, and it is also spacious. After everyone boarded the ship and sat down in this way, a small warship in front and behind was on guard, and the Warrior was sandwiched in the middle, and with a sound of the order, it sailed away from the dock and headed for the lake.

"Although I was born in Lin'an, I still can't tell the difference between north and south, and it is the first time I have been boating on this West Lake. Zhao Hao had also been to the West Lake in his previous life, when he had just canceled the ticket, there were a lot of tourists for a while, and he was coerced away when he visited the tour guide at all.

"Your Majesty, ahead is the Blessing Bridge, and it is also the only passage to the Lonely Mountain!" At this time, someone pointed to the arch bridge in front of him.

"Guiyu, isn't this blessed bridge also called a broken bridge!" The white causeway divides the West Lake into the inner lake and the outer lake, and there is a bridge erected on the watershed point, one end is connected to the lonely mountain, and the other end is connected to the white causeway, and visitors want to go to the lonely mountain to play, they have to pass through this bridge. Zhao Yu looked at the style of the bridge that was different from his previous life, but from the perspective of the position, it should be a broken bridge, and he asked again. And Guiyu is his newly selected head of the second room of the Imperial Front Office, which is Ma Duanlin, the eldest son of Ma Tingluan, who has participated in the imperial examination and won the first place in the Cao Examination, and has lived in Lin'an with his father for a period of time, and still has some understanding of the scenery here.

"What Your Majesty said is right, this is the starting point of the White Causeway, because the White Causeway from the lonely mountain is broken here, so it is commonly known as the Broken Bridge!" Ma Duanlin replied.

"Oh, this is also the place where the White Lady and Xu Xian first met?" Zhao Yu looked at this speech.

"Your Majesty also knows this allusion!" Ma Duanlin was a little surprised and said, "This is the place where the legendary snake fairy White Lady and the mortal Xu Xianyu met, and this bridge is also famous all over the world because of this legend!" ”

"Hehe, I don't know if we have a fate today, and we can also meet an immortal to talk to!" Zhao Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he mentioned this matter without his brain on a whim, fortunately the Great Song Dynasty already had it, otherwise it would have to take a lot of effort.

"Your Majesty, you ...... Do you see if there are immortals on that ship? As soon as Zhao Yu finished speaking, he saw Chen Dun pointing to a small boat that was sailing in the same direction as them, and said in a trembling voice.

"How so?" Zhao Hao looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw that it was an extremely ordinary small boat, but when he saw a Taoist with a white beard and a Taoist robe, holding a long staff hanging cross-legged on the bow of the boat, he was also startled, he wouldn't really meet an immortal, right......
