Volume 5 Dissipating the melancholy Chapter 38 Drinking the years, getting drunk and singing Look at the mortal world, who laughs at me
Early autumn, Gangneung Province
Several official ships sailed on the Jialing River in Gangneung Province
On the boat, someone played the pipa and sang softly, "Watch the autumn moon and winter frost, look around and see who is the master of the ups and downs" sang Xiang Yu's defeated soldiers and drew his sword to kill himself
On the boat, some people cheered loudly, "Sing well, reward", and some doormen hurriedly took out a few copper coins from their pockets and trotted to give a reward
Everyone else on the boat applauded in vain, what good is it for Xiang Yu to defeat himself? Worth your tip?
It turned out that the person who cheered loudly was the current Jiangling Mu, the son of Emperor Zhao Guangyi - Zhao Yuanzuo, and the others who sat on the boat were all four grades and above in Jiangling Mansion
official
This is the seventh day of Zhao Yuanzuo's delegation to Jiangling, and in the past seven days, he has to invite Jiangling officials to come to the official boat every day to swim the Jialing River together
Generally, the official courtesy will pass in just two or three days, who knows that this emperor's son Zhao Yuanzuo doesn't know what to smoke crazy, and it's been like this for a week, every day
For the three poles, the officials of the four products of Jiangling must be invited to eat and drink on the river
Putting down the work at hand and not doing it, and accompanying such a thing to swim the Yangtze River every day, isn't this nonsense? Several high-ranking government officials under the prefect Qi Siyuan sighed and hugged
Words of resentment
The prefect Qi Siyuan told his officials that this is the emperor's son, and if he wants to accompany him, he will accompany him, and he will be entertained in an ordinary officialdom
But what Cheng thought, today Zhao Yuanzuo didn't know what interest he was in, and invited all the officials of Jiangling Mansion, below the fourth grade and above the seventh grade, to swim in the lake together
But on the Jialing River, there are several official ships, sanitation, guards, retinues, and countless military ships
Putting aside how Zhao Yuanzuo disturbed the local government affairs, it would have been a happy thing to say that a few people from the prefect had been able to get on the boat, according to the prefect and other officials
Meaning, I want to order a song about the drunkenness of the concubine, happy and happy, how do you know what Jiang Lingmu said to listen to Xiang Yu's defeat
Originally, the officials were reluctant to come, but didn't it ruin to hear Zhao Yuanzuo order such a song? But everyone knew that Jiang Lingmu was crazy, so he had to rely on his temperament
How do you know that Zhao Yuanzuo was happy when he heard it, and shouted good and rewarded
The prefects and governors were even more angry, and everyone gave him a blank look
Zhao Yuanzuo only cared about his own happiness, ignored the attitudes of others, raised his glass and made peace, and said in a loud voice, "Drunk as a song, life is geometric, as blue as morning dew, and the days are bitter."
Many, look at who laughs at me in the mortal world", unconsciously drunk on the chair
The prefect Qi Siyuan took a look, yes, our prince Chitose drank high again, hugged his fist to Zhao Yuanzuo, said forgiveness, and led the other officials on the ship out of the cockpit
When they arrived outside the boat, looking at the scenery of the river, several officials on the boat suddenly became open-minded
The prefect hurriedly beckoned a few of his colleagues, and you should now return to the yamen on an errand
Several people did this for several days, and when Zhao Yuanzuo was drunk, he said goodbye and got off the ship and returned to the mansion
Zhizhou, weaving, and other officials of all sizes bowed their hands and said goodbye, beckoned themselves to take the boat, several official ships with the cruise docked on Zhao Yuanzuo's big boat, and several people in Zhizhou got off the boat and disembarked from the boat
, Zhizhou colleagues pointed to the boat and scolded, "This person is crazy and lazy, delaying political affairs, and wants us to accompany the boat for several days
The Tao said this."
Qi Siyuan nodded, you just have to go back to the government office, I am here, as for the participation, I have my own reason
A few people got off the boat and drove back, needless to say
Speaking of Qi Siyuan, he sent away his colleagues and returned to the cabin, but saw that Zhao Yuanzuo was drunk and unconscious at this time
waved to a few of the artists in the boat and ordered them to leave as well
Then he ordered the boatman to row the boat back
He sat in the cabin, leaning on the corner of the table and dozing off
He is the highest governor of Jiangling Mansion, and it is his duty to accompany our prince Zhao Yuanzuo to inspect Jiangwu, but it has been like this for several days, which has caused his subordinates to complain
Dao, I knew that at the beginning, I mistook the emperor's children and grandchildren, and I shouldn't fool you Jialing is an official need, and it was the emperor's son who inspected Jiangwu, and I made a mistake
Poor, misstepped, unconsciously fell asleep on the ship
When he woke up, the boat had already docked, Zhao Yuanzuo was still drunk and not awake, did he leave or continue to accompany him? He couldn't make up his mind himself
At this time, someone reported that a group of people dressed as officials came to the shore, and the leader claimed to be an old acquaintance of Jiangling Mu Zhao Yuanzuo, passing by Jiangling, and wanted to see the old one
superior
Qi Siyuan stood up, tidied up his clothes and hats, and got out of the cabin, but saw that there were about 20 people on the shore, and there was a person dressed as a military general riding on a horse and hugging it
Hand arched
At first sight, the opposite side is also an official errand, he is the highest governor of Jiangling Mansion, he has the responsibility and obligation to receive, and he also hugged his hand, in the next, the governor of Jiangling Mansion Qi Siyuan,
I don't know what the general is called? Where is the official?
The person on the opposite side raised his hand and said, Xuanfu Cai Yuanlang in Xia Jiangning Mansion, because he took office, passed by Jiangling, and heard that the old boss, the thousand-year-old Jiangling Mu Zhao Yuanzuo, was here to swim in the lake, and he came to greet him
Oh? Is it Zhao Yuanzuo's old subordinate? Qi Siyuan laughed in his heart, where is this, he is the prefect of Jiangling Mansion, every day, he has no choice but to accompany Jiangling to visit the lake, and there is an old subordinate who comes down to visit, and he is funny in his heart
Ordered his soldiers to let go of the people and let the leading officer on the opposite side come to meet them
When Cai Yuanlang approached, Qi Siyuan was still not at ease, and asked General, who are you? How did you get acquainted with my Gangneung herd? How did you do Gangneung Mu's subordinates?
Cai Yuanlang smiled, I was the martial champion of Song Taizong Taiping for four years, and I was once in the capital, the palace, and I was a prince for half a year
Qi Siyuan was even happier when he heard it, he had heard the story of this martial champion, Zhao Yuanzuo was still young at that time, and it was just a child who said it casually, and Cai Yuanlang, the martial champion, was sent to the palace to be a housekeeper
Hurriedly arched his hand, it turned out to be the former Sheren of Jiangling Mu, and it turned out to be the champion of the year, disrespectful and disrespectful
Cai Yuanlang blushed with shame, also hugged his fists, and said, how dare you
Then, under the protection of a few soldiers, he came to Qi Siyuan
But seeing Qi Siyuan, with a ruddy complexion, an age of about forty, and a pleasant speech, Cai Yuanlang couldn't help but look up to this person a few points
But when he got close to the official ship, Cai Yuanlang asked again, can Master Jiangling Mu Chitose be in the boat? Is he okay? Can I come on board?
Qi Siyuan whispered, Jiang Lingmu was eating and falling asleep at this time, and was resting in the boat
Oh, Cai Yuenlang nodded
Entering Zhao Yuanzuo's official ship, Cai Yuanlang saw his childhood playmates who had been separated for many years, and when he saw the former prince Zhao Yuanzuo, he was moved, but seeing that Zhao Yuanzuo was asleep, he could only find a table next to him and sit side by side with Qi Siyuan and chat
Time is very fast, and there is probably only one cup of tea, Zhao Yuanzuo woke up, his sleepy eyes were hazy, he looked around, changed his usual liveliness, and said, Huh? What about people? Where have all the people gone?
I saw that in the cabin, Qi Siyuan stood up and bowed to Zhao Yuanzuo, Lord Jiangling, everyone else on the ship has already disembarked and returned to their respective mansions, look at who this is?
Take a step back and introduce someone over
I saw that the man was burly, with a helmet on his head and armor on his body, and before Zhao Yuanzuo could see it clearly, the man knelt down on his shirt and said in his mouth, Cai Yuanlang, a subordinate prince, participated in His Royal Highness the Prince!
When Zhao Yuanzuo heard this, he hurriedly stood up, but he didn't stand firmly, he fell down and hurriedly approached, who are you? He didn't seem to hear clearly
Cai Yuenlong, a subordinate prince, participates in His Royal Highness the Prince!
Zhao Yuanzuo walked into the shelter, picked up Cai Yuanlang, and watched carefully, since the decentralization of the place, the worries and worries of the past few days have been swept away, and he fell into his arms, Brother Yuen Long, it is really you!
Cai Yuanlang and Zhao Yuanzuo hugged each other and cried
Qi Siyuan, the prefect on the side, looked stupid, he was just a meeting between the monarch and the minister, who knew that Cai Yuanlang and Jiang Lingmu were so close to each other, and when they saw the two of them hugging each other and crying, they couldn't help but burst into tears
In ancient times, it was inconvenient to walk by car and boat, and once someone went to a foreign place and a distant place, it may be the last goodbye in life
When I was sent down and excluded by others, at this time, I can meet the old people, don't mention what it's like to be in my heart
