Seeing a big bowl of tea on the side of the road, Liu Guangzu walked over. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

I bought three bowls of tea for three dollars, picked up one of the bowls, and drank it with a grunt, Zhao Guohua and Niu Huan were also thirsty, so they also picked up the bowl and drank all the tea in the bowl

Wiping his mouth with his hand, Liu Guangzu said: "Speaking of the places of interest in Kaifeng, there are many of them, such as Daxiangguo Temple, Baogong Temple, Zhuxian Town, Yue Fei Temple, Chongyang Temple, Tianbo Yang Mansion and so on. ”

"Daxiangguo Temple, is it the one that Lu Zhishen has been in?" Niu Huan asked excitedly.

He used to send firewood to a tea shop in the city, and he heard the storyteller tell a story about Lu Zhishen uprooting the weeping willows in the Great Xiangguo Temple, so he had a deep impression of the name of the Great Xiangguo Temple.

"Yes. This is the Great Xiangguo Temple. Liu Guangzu said with a smile.

When Niu Huan heard this, he was very happy, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, then let's go to Daxiangguo Temple first, and then go to other places." ”

"Does the Chongyang Concept have anything to do with Wang Chongyang, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect?" Zhao Guohua asked.

Jin Yong's novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has many stories about the Quanzhen Sect, so Zhao Guohua remembers Wang Chongyang, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect.

"The general has never been to Kaifeng, how do you know this?" Liu Guangzu asked in surprise, and Zhao Guohua smiled but did not answer.

Seeing this, Liu Guangzu was also inconvenient to ask, and continued: "The Chongyang Temple was built to commemorate Wang Zhe (Wang Chongyang), the founder of the Quanzhen Sect. The Chongyang concept at the end of the golden period has been destroyed. Yuan Taizong five years, the Quanzhen disciples were ordered by the Qiu Chuji, rebuilt the Chongyang Temple, lasted nearly 30 years, the scale is magnificent, the palace is magnificent, the Yuan Emperor gave the name "Yuan Wanshou Palace of the Great Dynasty" at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and was destroyed in the fire again, only one Zhaitang remains. In the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, it was renamed Yanqing Temple. ”

"Okay, let's go, let's go and see Chongyang Temple first." Zhao Guohua said.

So the three of them walked towards Chongyang Temple. Chongyang Temple is located in the northeast of Baogong Lake in Kaifeng City, is to commemorate the Taoist temple built in commemoration of the founder of Quanzhen Sect in Taoism Wang Zhe (Wang Chongyang) preached and died here, it is adjacent to Daxiangguo Temple in the east, Baogong Lake in the west, Kaifeng Mansion in the south, Yuan Taizong five years (1233), Quanzhen Christians were ordered by Qiu Chuji to rebuild Chongyang Temple, which lasted nearly 30 years, Emperor Yuan gave the name "Yuan Wanshou Palace of the Great Dynasty", Ming Hongwu six years (1373) changed its name to Yanqing Temple, and the Baiyun Temple in Beijing, the Changdao Temple in Sichuan and called the three famous views of China.

After seeing the Chongyang Temple, Zhao Guohua said: "It seems that Wang Chongyang really has a disciple named Qiu Chuji. Jin Yong didn't lie to me. Zhao Guohua said.

"Who is Jin Yong? How did he know this? Liu Guangzu asked.

Smiling, Zhao Guohua said: "Jin Yong is a master, he only comes out of the mountain once in hundreds of years, and he only meets him when he has fate." ”

"Huh? It only comes out of the mountain once in hundreds of years, isn't that an immortal? Liu Guangzu said, opening his mouth wide in surprise.

Nodding, Zhao Guohua said, "Almost, maybe." ”

"Has the general seen him?" Niu Huan asked in surprise.

Zhao Guohua smiled mysteriously and said, "I haven't seen it, but I've just read the book he wrote." ”

Liu Guangzu said with a look of admiration: "The general actually read the immortal book written by the immortals, no wonder the war is so powerful." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Guohua almost laughed. But he couldn't help laughing and diverted the subject.

Out of the Chongyang Temple, and then to the Great Xiangguo Temple.

The entrance of Daxiangguo Temple is much more lively, there are all kinds of juggling performances, you can see lion dance, drums, stilts, dry boats, suona, etc.

"Sold! Sold! Kaifeng soup dumplings, fried cold noodles, pot stickers and tofu"......

"Sold! Sold! Rock sugar ripe pear, almond tea, Jiangmi cut cake"......

"Muslim mutton soup, Donghua Cha, sold! Sold! ”……

One after another, the shouting and selling sound came and went, and the fragrance and sweetness were mixed together, making people swallow their saliva.

Listening to Niu Huan's cooing saliva, Zhao Guohua smiled and said, "It seems that we should eat." Let's go and find a place to eat. ”

"That's right, I'm hungry for a long time." Niu Huan rubbed his stomach and said.

A few people looked around and saw that there was a two-story restaurant in Baogong Lake, where people came in and out, guessing the boxing order, and it was lively and noisy

The food in a restaurant with a lot of people coming in and out must be delicious, which is his experience in later generations. So he walked in with Niu Huan and Liu Guangzu

"Guest, please take a seat." A shopkeeper with a towel on his shoulder greeted him and greeted him with a smile on his face.

Glancing at him, and then at the noisy and lively first floor, Zhao Guohua said: "We want a private seat, the price is easy to say." ”

As soon as he heard this, the shopkeeper knew that a rich master was coming, so he bent his waist even more.

bowed in front to lead the way, and led Zhao Guohua and others to the second floor.

On the second floor, there was a young scholar drinking, four or five dishes on the table, and a man dressed as a servant accompanied him.

Zhao Guohua walked over, stood by the window, and saw the clear water of Baogong Lake, the light wind blew the layers of microwaves on the lake, and a stream of water vapor floated towards him, which was very cool.

Delivering fragrant tea, the shopkeeper bowed down with a smile on his face and asked, "What do the three guest officers eat?" ”

"What do you have to eat?" Zhao Guohua asked with a smile.

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "That's a lot, Pang Ji bucket chicken, Shajia beef, four treasures in the open envelope, three fresh lotus cakes, five-spiced rabbit meat, air-dried rabbit meat, five-spiced sheep's trotters, pickled melon chicken, chrysanthemum hot pot, sesame wings, yellow stewed fish, ......" He reported a large list of dish names in one breath.

"A plate of each." Niu Huan said.

"Okay." The shopkeeper agreed, and went down to shout with a smile on his face.

While waiting for the dishes, the three of them chatted about the history of Kaifeng.

Liu Guangzu said: "Kaifeng is worthy of being the ancient capital of the Eight Dynasties, there are many places of interest and historic sites, after dinner, I will take you to the Bao Gong Temple to see, but unfortunately, I have no Bao Gong in the Ming Dynasty now, otherwise the court situation will not be so chaotic, and the state affairs will not be so difficult." ”

At this time, there was a "pop" sound, which startled everyone.

When I turned my head to look, I saw that the scholar at the adjacent table was patting the table, and I saw his right hand on the table, with a look of anger and depression: "I think I Li Xin is full of talent and ambition to serve the country, but there is no way to serve the country, but I am anno......yed, I am annoyed."

The servant persuaded, "Childe, let's say a few words." After dinner, let's go home, it's been more than half a month. ”

"Could it be that he is the Li Xin who married the red lady and changed his name to Li Yan?" Zhao Guohua thought to himself.

At this time, he remembered that Li Xin's father seemed to be called Li Jingbai, so he got up and asked, "This son, may I ask if Ling Zun's name is Li Jingbai?" ”

"How do you know my father?" Li Xin asked in surprise.

Because he didn't have any image of the people in front of him, he didn't know how these people could know his father's name. But these people don't look like government spies.

"Oh, I heard from a friend in Henan Mansion, his name is Li Zaifa, a person from Huaiqing Mansion, known as Ma Jianhuan." Zhao Guohua said in a natural tone.

He can't say that I know it from the novel "Li Zicheng".

Hearing this, Li Xin suddenly realized: "It turned out to be him." I've heard of this guy and he's a good veterinarian. ”

"Since Gongzi Li also knows him, then Gongzi Li is also my friend, so how about you come over and have a drink or two?" Zhao Guohua said with a smile.

"Okay." Li Xin happily agreed and walked over.

Li Xin, a native of Qi County, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan, was raised in the year of the Apocalypse. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng became an important general of the peasant army, and changed his name to Li Yan after joining the peasant army. His father Li Jingbai was the governor of Shandong and the rank of secretary of the military department, and Chongzhen was reduced to the people in the early years, but the Li family was still one of the top squires and wealthy lords in Qi County.

Li Xin studied very hard, and he was lifted at a young age.

He was generous and bold by nature, and often gave to the poor; He also loves to fight grievances and uphold justice. His personality is like a chivalrous man, he likes to make friends, he has a good reputation in Qi County, and the people call him "Li Gongzi".

"Guest officer, the wine and food are here." The shopkeeper said, and walked in with two guys with three wooden plates with a smile on his face. A dozen dishes quickly filled the table.

After pouring the wine, Zhao Guohua said: "In the next Zhao Guohua, Jiangxi people's family, admire this Kaifeng to play, it is a great pleasure in life to get to know Li Gongzi, come on, you and I have a drink." As he spoke, Zhao Guohua raised his neck and drank it all.

Seeing this, Li Xin smiled and drank it up.

When the wine was hot, Li Xin struck the bowl with chopsticks and sang: "Angry hair rushes to the crown, relying on the place, Xiaoxiao rain rest." Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, and be fierce. Thirty merits, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and ...... moon"

After he finished singing this song of Yue Fei's Man Jianghong, Zhao Guohua said: "Li Gongzi, I heard that you are both civil and military, I don't know what you think of the current situation in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Shaking his head, Li Xin said: "I can only say that I have a little involvement." As for the current situation, it can only be summed up in two sentences. ”

"Which two sentences?"

Glancing at Zhao Guohua, Li Xin said in a heavy tone: "Internal and external troubles are as dangerous as eggs. ”

Smiling and nodding appreciatively, Zhao Guohua said in his heart; "Sure enough, it is worthy of Li Yan, and he does have a certain vision."

"Then who does Li Gongzi think is my biggest enemy of the Ming Dynasty? Is it a rogue or a tartar outside the gate? Zhao Guohua asked.

After pondering for a while, Li Xin said, "I think it's a rogue." The Tartars outside the customs want people and goods. ”

Looking at him, Zhao Guohua said in his heart: "It seems that his vision still has historical limitations." ”

Seeing that Zhao Guohua didn't speak, Li Yan knew that he didn't agree with his opinion, so he asked, "Brother Zhao seems to have something else." ”

"Yes. I really don't agree with Childe's opinion. Zhao Guohua said.

Arching his hand, Li Xin said with a serious face: "Please give me advice from Brother Zhao." Looking at him, Zhao Guohua asked: "Let me ask you, what conditions do you need for a country to be strong?" ”

"A wise monarch, a mighty army." Li Xin replied thoughtfully.

"Anything else?" Zhao Guohua asked.

Shaking his head, Li Yan said, "There should be none." ”

Looking at Liu Guangzu and Niu Huan, Zhao Guohua asked, "What about the two of you, tell me about it too?" ”
