Six provinces in eastern Zhejiang, the pillow river is connected to the sea.

The waterways between Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Shaoxing, Ningbo, Taizhou and Wenzhou are vertical and horizontal, and they are connected into a network.

From Shaoxing to Hangzhou, it is extremely convenient to take a boat. Therefore, when many officials go to Hangzhou to take up their posts, they are willing to take the waterway to avoid the hardship of traveling by land.

It was the middle of May, and the wharf of Yunqi in Shaoxing Prefecture was full of all kinds of awning boats. There are three canopies and three cabins, the "Sanming Tile" for the officials and gentry to ride, and the "shuttle fly" that ordinary people can wrap up with a small size. (Note 1)

How much money you have, what kind of ship you will take. The boatmen at Yunqi Wharf have long been accustomed to seeing the gentry and gentry, not to mention the Qipin County Order, even the officials and gentlemen in scarlet complement clothes have seen a lot.

At first glance, the three words of the official lord sound natural and intimidating, but after getting along with these officials and gentry for a long time, they found that these noble characters who are like Chinese quxing in the mouth of the common people are also a nose, a mouth, eat grains and grains, have seven emotions and six desires, and are no different from ordinary people.

Even when they heard that there were any scholars who were going to board the boat from Yunqi Wharf, the boatmen were not interested.

"Let's sail!"

Accompanied by the boatman's authentic Shaoxing dialect, a brand-new "Sanming tile" rowed off the pier and went downstream along the wide river.

On the bow of this "Sanming Tile" stood two Confucian scholars, one of whom was older, wearing a lake blue straight jacket with a blue half-arm; The younger ones wore dark blue and vermilion coats, and their waists were tied with Zhejiang silk ribbons.

The two of them put their hands behind their backs and looked at the layers of water waves on the river, both with melancholy expressions.

On both sides of the bow, there are two lions cast in white copper, which should be for good luck. The older Confucian glanced at the white bronze lion and sighed, "Why should Brother Shen Xian wade into this pool of troubled water for Brother Shen." Yanyun has made this case still unclear, and the foolish brother may not be able to get to the bottom of this stone thrown down, but I am afraid that it will affect you in the end. ”

"Brother Shouren looks down on me when he says that. Zeng Zi said: 'The way of the master is only loyalty and forgiveness. The so-called faithful do their best, and the so-called forgiveness is merciful and generous. Although Xie is dull, he also knows the way of a gentleman, and he should do his best. ”

This young man is relatively young, and the young man who talks eloquently is naturally Xie Shen.

He had a conversation with Confucius, learned a lot of things, and finally decided to go to Hangzhou with Wang Shouren.

Of course, he knew that this case involved a lot of people, and it was a bottomless pit. Countless people want to get out of it, and getting involved at this time must be asking for their own hardships.

But in Xie Shen's view, not everything has to be weighed by pros and cons.

When Xie Shen read "Han Feizi", he was very impressed by a sentence, that is, 'Safety lies in right and wrong, not in strength or weakness, survival in reality, not in the number of widows.' 'A person's situation is safe or dangerous, not whether you are strong or weak, but whether you are good or evil. The survival or demise of a nation does not depend on the number of armies, but on hypocrisy or reality.

Although this sentence has a somewhat metaphysical flavor, it still makes a lot of sense.

Xie Shen firmly believes that evil does not prevail over good! If this world is full of hard-working and flattering people, how can we talk about establishing a heart for heaven and earth and a life for the people. If this world is full of people who are submissive and wise, how can they talk about continuing to learn for the saints and opening peace for all generations!

Xie Shen asked himself if he was not a White Lotus, but what should be held on to must be adhered to. With Wang Shouren's upright temperament, if he really let him go into the tiger's den in Longtan alone, maybe something will happen.

In order for a generation of mind masters to be able to pass this level smoothly, Xie Shen can't sit idly by!

"Brother Shenxian's words make Brother Wei admire!"

Wang Shouren nodded and said: "In this case, the two of us will go to Hangzhou Mansion to break through, and if you are a brother, you don't believe that the sky of the Ming Dynasty is covered by Xiao Xiaoxiao!" ”

"Brother Shouren is so arrogant, the two of us should be a big white!"

Xie Shen pulled Wang Shouren to turn around and walk from the bow to the forward cabin. The two of them descended a few wooden steps, and Xie Shen suddenly rose up and said, "If Brother Shouren is interested, you can also ask the boatman to sing a few words here." ”

Wang Shouren smiled bitterly: "Forget it, I heard that the boatmen here all have a good voice, if they really sing, I'm afraid they will miss the shipping schedule." ”

From the front cabin to the middle cabin, you have to pass through a small screen door of calligraphy and painting, on which are written respectively "cold rain and rivers enter Wu at night", and "the moon falls and the sky is full of frost", which is extremely elegant. The big ship of this "Sanming Tile" is divided into three cabins: front, middle and rear, the middle cabin is for enjoying the scenery, there are "ten windows" on both sides, and the rear cabin is for the passengers to sleep and rest.

At this moment, the boatman was probably rocking the oars at the stern of the boat, and he didn't hear the conversation between the two in the middle cabin, otherwise he might have lost the oars and came to Wang Shouren to ask for an explanation.

Which boatman in Shaoxing does not sing mountain songs when rowing, and who will miss the boat schedule because of singing mountain songs.

Isn't this that the scholar is arrogant and looks down on the boatman who sells coolies!

Fortunately, the boatman was bent on rocking the oars at the moment and was not distracted, otherwise he might have rowed back in anger and threw Wang Shouren on the dock.

Wang Shouren sat on the square chair in the middle cabin, looking at the river scenery outside the window, and naturally gave birth to poetry.

He tapped his finger lightly and said lightly: "Traveling along the river by boat, my brother suddenly remembered Lu Fangweng's "Queqiao Immortal". ”

The corners of Xie Shen's mouth raised slightly, and he recited it naturally.

"The lanterns are longitudinal, the carved saddle is galloping, who remembers the heroic deeds of the year. Half of the drunkards took the title of marquis, and went alone to be the fisherman by the river. The light boat is eight feet, and the low canopy has three fans, accounting for the smoke and rain of Pingzhou. Jinghu Yuan is an idler, so why bother with it. The word Lu Wuguan is very detached, and it is estimated that he has been searching all his life, and he has had an epiphany when he is old. Today, I took a canopy boat with Brother Shouren, but I experienced the lightness of 'eight feet in a light boat and three fans in a low canopy'. ”

Lu You is a native of Shanyin, Shaoxing, and his sentence 'eight feet in a light boat, three fans in a low canopy' has also become synonymous with the canopy boat, Xie Shen has never been on a canopy boat, and this time it is a small wish.

"It can be seen that Brother Shen Xian admires Lu Fangweng very much, so it is better to write a lyric and talk about nostalgia."

Xie Shen looked at the splashing waves outside the window, and said abruptly for a while: "The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes." Success or failure turns empty, the green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times. On the white-haired fisherman river, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, and many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking. ”

The general "three Ming Tiles" have three cabins, and the middle cabin has three fixed canopies. There are two boats called "shuttle flying" between the tents.
