The spring flowers are blooming, and the Qinhuai River is full of tourists. Under the flowery riverside willows, the ladies and talents lingering here are like the most agile brushwork in a landscape painting.

After the rain last night, the fog on the Qinhuai River also dissipated. Qin Huaihe, who hadn't seen his true face for a long time, once again showed his soft figure. The fresh and humid air is incoming and refreshing.

Among the red and green flowers, the small pavilion by the river looms in the undulating sea of flowers. The occasional hearty laughter came from the pavilion, and it was quickly carried away by the wind.

Lu Heng and the three of them sat in this pavilion, talking about these interesting things about Jiangning now, but it was also comfortable and relaxed. On the small stove next to him, wine is boiling, and the rich aroma of wine fills the air, blending with the faint fragrance of flowers, making people want to smell intoxicated.

"Now this rain can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need of Jiangnan!" Zhang Wenshan stood by the pavilion with his hands behind his back, looking at the fresh and elegant Qinhuai River from afar, and said with a smile with relief in his tone.

"Yes, Jiangning is the granary of the imperial court. Once Jiangning is affected, the entire Great Zhou will inevitably be turbulent! Now, this rain can be regarded as the solution to the drought in the south of the Yangtze River. It couldn't have come at a better time! Prince Ning sat there, drinking wine and said with a smile.

Zhang Wenshan nodded, walked over, sat down, poured himself a glass of wine, and sighed: "I really don't know when the imperial court will be able to solve the war in the north." This war has been fought for many years, the treasury is empty, and the people are suffering. In the long run, no matter how rich my Da Zhou is, it will be hollowed out! ”

Ning Wangye's face was also a little tasteless, holding the wine glass, shaking the golden liquor inside, and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it won't end in a short time." According to the news from Tokyo, it is said that our Great Zhou is preparing to send troops again to conquer the Turks. This time, it should drive the Turks to Mobei! Hehe! ”

After saying this, Lord Ning didn't know what he remembered. He shook his head and smiled while drinking.

Zhang Wenshan snorted coldly, and said with a hint of sarcasm on his face: "Heh, if this is the case, I have heard it for at least ten years, old man." I say this every time, but what about the result? ”

Prince Ning looked at the indignation on Zhang Wenshan's face and shook his head amusedly.

Zhang Wenshan held the wine glass with one hand, with a look of nostalgia in his eyes, turned his head to look at the sky in the north, his face was full of regret, and sighed: "If General Di Wu hadn't ...... back then"

"Wenshan, be cautious!" Lord Ning directly stopped Zhang Wenshan from continuing, stared at him coldly, and said in a deep voice: "After so many years, don't you understand?" ”

Zhang Wenshan shook his head with a wry smile and sighed: "How can you not understand, heh, it's just, I just think it's a pity!" It's a pity that a tiger general! ”

On the side, Lu Heng sat there with a smile on his face, quietly listening to the two old men say this, his smiling eyes were full of confusion. It's like I don't understand anything.

Regarding General Di Wu, Lu Heng had heard some about it before. knows that this person is a descendant of the famous minister Di Renjie during the Wu Zetian period. was originally the most dazzling general in the hundreds of years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, more than ten years ago, he was implicated because of the rebellion of the three princes. The whole family was beheaded and the nine clans were exterminated.

Zhang Wenshan was also deposed because of that case, the difference is that he is still alive. But Di Wu fell into the Yellow Spring forever.

Back then, the third prince was a strong contender for the position of crown prince. There are many talents under him. And he was favored. However, in the palace battle with the crown prince for the prince, this person still made a strange move in the end.

Not only were the three princes given to death, but even those disciples under him were not spared. However, one of them is extremely innocent. He is Di Wu.

Di Wu actually has nothing to do with the three princes at all. The two sides just knew each other, but the generals with heavy troops were already suspicious, and the only meeting between Di Wu and the third prince was seen by the prince.

After the rebellion of the three princes, Di Wu was secretly recalled by the emperor from the border pass. Then he was thrown into prison, and three days later, the whole family was beheaded.

The huge Di family completely disappeared from the Great Zhou, and none of the descendants of the famous ministers were spared.

Although, three years later, Di Wu's rebellion was confirmed to be an unjust case. Di Wu, who died unjustly, was restored to his reputation. He was not given the title of General Shengwu of the Great Zhou, and the emperor also issued an edict for his own crimes. But all is a thing of the past. Famous generals fell, and the border passes were unguarded. The Great Zhou's war against the Turks has also changed from being aggressive back then to being passively beaten everywhere now.

Speaking of these, Ning Wangye and Zhang Wenshan couldn't help but sigh.

"Alas, what a pity!" Zhang Wenshan raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, with a strong smell of wine in his mouth, and his face was full of helplessness and regret.

"Since ancient times, famous generals have been like beauties, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world! Di Gongquan has the words of knowledge, but I don't know what it feels like. It's my martial artist, I'm sorry for Di Gong! Lord Ning also had a sigh on his face, with a gray beard, dancing wildly in the wind.

There was a faint sadness in the pavilion, and the air around it seemed to condense at this moment. The breeze blows, and the soft sound of the flowers seems to be no longer relaxed. It seems to be that ten years ago, the fallen celebrity cried in a low voice.

The fire in the stove was still burning, red and red, licking the blackened base of the wine vessel. Wisps of wine aroma waft from the golden liquor. Blown away in the air by the wind.

"Brother Zhan, what are they talking about, Lord Wang?" Not far from the pavilion, the samurai in charge of guarding looked at the three people in the pavilion with some puzzlement.

I was still talking and laughing just now, but at this time, I was all sad. Uh, no. Why is that scholar still with that look, with a smiling Maitreya Buddha-like expression.

A samurai asked in a low voice to the powerful man beside him.

"Stand your post!" The man's face was like steel, without the slightest expression, and he opened his mouth, and his voice was like steel rubbing.

The samurai smirked, then returned to his place. His eyes scanned the surroundings like electricity.

The powerful man closed his eyes gently. The fist hidden behind his back is clenched tightly.

"General Di!" The man's heart trembled slightly, his lips moved slightly, and he muttered.

The atmosphere became a little dull, and the faces of the two old men were faintly sad. It was as if the picturesque scenery of Qin Huai in front of them couldn't get into their eyes.

Lu Heng took a sip of the wine glass, lightly knocked his fingers on the table, looked at the two old men, shook his head and said with a smile: "Hey, you two." And really. This picturesque scenery has made you disturbed! The past is gone forever, why don't you two old men look forward? ”

As soon as the words were spoken, the two old men looked at each other angrily.

"Heartless, heartless!" Zhang Wenshan's gray beard was shaking, his eyes were glaring, and he pointed at Lu Heng and scolded.

"That's right!" Lord Ning looked at Lu Heng angrily with the enemy, and was very satisfied with Zhang Wenshan's evaluation.

Lu Heng shrugged his shoulders with an innocent expression.

After the two old men finished their criticism of Lu Heng, they were silent again. After that, the two old men glanced at each other in unison.

Well, I took another look.

"Hahaha!"

The old man finally put aside the troubles in his heart. Laughed freely.

The breeze blew, and the weeping willows rustled in the river. The dripping river surface is drawn by the slightly swaying willow branches. The refreshing fragrance of flowers blew into the small pavilion, taking away this faint melancholy. The atmosphere has finally warmed up.
