Chapter 287: The water shines well

PS: Double Watch!

The Imperial City of the Great Song Dynasty, in the Cining Palace.

Queen Quan was silent for a moment, slowly knelt down in the direction of Xie Daoqing, kowtowed deeply, and her voice became more and more flat and indifferent: "Queen Mother, there is no other way." Although Shu'er is only a young lady in her twenties, her more important identity is Princess Xin'an of the Great Song Dynasty and the daughter of the royal family. Now the Song family is declining, there are Mongolian Tatars outside to cut half of the mountains and rivers, and the powerful ministers and thieves **** to ・・・・・・ the queen mother, this is not Fengheng Yuda, peaceful and prosperous, but the autumn of critical survival! ”

Concubine Yang Shufei also knelt down and bowed her head silently, but the meaning of echoing was already very clear, obviously this idea was finalized by her and Queen Quan.

Empress Dowager Xie reached out and pressed her chest, took a long breath, and sat back in her chair.

"Queen Mother, now that the official family is addicted to wine, she doesn't care, her daughter can no longer let the world down from the Yizu brothers go to her best, Queen Mother," the queen prostrated again, "Jingde, Jingkang, Jianyan, Shaoxing, Duanping, this Huanghuang Yan Song has come to the brink of destruction again and again, but in the end, they all got away with it, but this time, if no one cares, who can guarantee that God will still favor the orphans and widows of our Zhao family!" ”

(Author's note: Jingde is the name of Song Zhenzong, when the Liao army broke through the three passes and went south, Zhenzong drove the expedition in person, and the two sides signed the alliance of Lanyuan, and each retreated; Duanping is the year name of Song Lizong, and "Duanping into Luo" has been mentioned above, so it will not be repeated here. οΌ‰

Empress Dowager Xie was silent, Jing Denian had Kou Zhun's strength to eliminate public opinion and determine the danger in a war; Jingkang has the old general Zongze sitting in Henan, striving for a glimmer of life; Jianyan has the "Four Generals of Zhongxing" to fight a bloody battle for thousands of miles to stabilize the Southern Song Dynasty; Yu Yunwen was born in Shaoxing, and the bloody battle of Quarry Rock reversed the world; Even the former dynasty entered Luo, and there were talented and loyal ministers like Meng Heng who marched thousands of miles to counterattack the Mongols・・・・・・

Every time the Great Song Dynasty faced a catastrophe, someone could save the Song family from danger, but this time the Empress Dowager Xie knew that the Empress Dowager and the Empress Quan also knew that no one could save the Zhao family's Great Song Dynasty! The two most talented people in the entire Great Song Dynasty, Ye Yingwu and Jia Yidao, were tense, and none of them were loyal to the Savior. Their eyes were staring at the Zhao family's throne for three hundred years.

The Zhao family can only save themselves, the official family is unreliable, King Rong is already dying, and the only ones who can really rely on it are these women in the harem.

But they are unarmed, and what they can use is the eternal beauty plan. And Zhao Yunshu, the princess of Xin'an, who has a noble identity and outstanding appearance, is the best candidate. What's more, she is not Queen Quan's biological daughter after all, and when it comes to the last resort, Queen Quan can feel better even if she is distressed.

Xie Daoqing's cheeks were already full of old tears, even if she was suppressed by Jia Guifei in the harem when she was young, she stubbornly never shed tears, but today's situation, the old man finally couldn't bear it.

For three hundred years, why did the Great Song royal family always have to bear such humiliation, why did such blood and tears always let the family of the clan daughter bear it, where did the men who were loyal to this dynasty go, and where did the men who could shelter everyone go?!

"Kid, come over kid." Empress Dowager Xie slowly opened her arms, her voice trembling a little.

Empress Quan and Concubine Yang Shu stepped forward on their knees, and Empress Dowager Xie hugged the two young daughters-in-law and choked softly: "Hard-working children, and Shu'er with an old body!" ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were already crying together in the empty palace, letting the tears run rampant.

"I hope that Shu'er child can forgive you for your hard work," I don't know how long it was, Empress Dowager Xie's voice was low and helpless, "I am disappointed in this life, and I wish I would not be in the emperor's house in the next life." ”

――――――――――――――――――――

"Outside the mountain, Qingshan Lou Wailou, West Lake singing and dancing when will it be off. The warm wind smokes the tourists drunk, and Hangzhou is Bianzhou! Ye Yingwu stood by the West Lake, looking at the faint and sparkling green mountains in front of him, and couldn't help but chant in a low voice. Beside him, long streets stretch along the West Lake, with many restaurants and green buildings and Chu Pavilions.

Zhao Yunshu cautiously jumped down from the carriage and slowly walked to Ye Yingwu's side: "When you go to that place, you will recite these poems that worry about the country and hurt the people, can't you hold anything else in your heart except these?" ”

Ye Yingwu was silent, looking at the lakes and mountains in front of him. And Zhao Yunshu stretched out his arms, the warm spring breeze came to his face, and his sleeves fluttered: "The water is clear and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy." If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, light makeup is always appropriate. Today, I can see that this West Lake is really a good scenery. ”

Looking at Zhao Yunshu in some surprise, Ye Yingwu finally couldn't help but ask, "Haven't you seen West Lake in Lin'an for so many years?" ”

The arm was slowly lowered, Zhao Yunshu's expression darkened, and after being silent for a long time, he finally shook his head: "No." I have been in the deep palace since I was a child, and the biggest fun every day is probably to play hide and seek with my father, and the farthest place I have walked is to go to the Qiantang River to watch the tide. Because my dad doesn't like to go out, he naturally won't bring me here. ”

Ye Yingwu was silent, and Zhao Yunshu then said softly: "Today is the first time I have seen the West Lake, and it is really as beautiful as it is described in the book and praised in the poem." ”

As if he had made up his mind, Ye Yingwu turned around and shouted, "Come on, go to the dock to pack a painting boat." ”

"What are you going to do?" Zhao Yunshu looked at him in surprise.

patted his chest, at this time, Ye Yingwu seemed to be no longer the awe-inspiring Ye Xianggong in the officialdom, nor the Ye Envoy who fought bloodily on the battlefield, but more like the Lin'an Yanya who had no shape: "This Lin'an West Lake can be said to be well understood, and I will take you on a good tour of the West Lake scenery today!" ”

Pursing his lips and being silent for a moment, Zhao Yunshu bowed solemnly, but then glanced at Ye Yingwu suspiciously, and realized: "I didn't expect Ye Yuanjun to be such a shrewd person, a painting boat on the West Lake, even if Jia Yidao has three heads and six arms, it is impossible to move you at all." ”

"Sort of." Ye Yingwu did not deny it, looking at the water of the West Lake, "Maybe someone from the bottom of my heart really wants to take a boat to wander in this West Lake, the beautiful scenery is intoxicating, accompanied by beautiful women, what a pleasure is this." What's more, it's been more than half a year, and it's the first time I've returned to this landscape. ”

"What a beautiful woman accompanies you, it's obvious that you are accompanying this palace!" Zhao Yunshu said with some annoyance.

Ye Yingwu rolled his eyes, too lazy to take care of this sensitive little girl, the two of them walked slowly along the edge of the West Lake, and on the side of the restaurant not far away was the West Lake Wharf, and the boats of all sizes were neatly arranged.

Although today's spring is very good, the warm sun shines on the body is very comfortable, but after all, it is still a little cold at the beginning of spring, and it is not a day of rest, so there are not many people who come to the West Lake to play in spring, and there are only three, three, two or two figures on the wharf, and the scene of the West Lake on the empty alley during the holiday is still different.

"Envoy, the ship has been rented." Wu Chucai stood in front and arched his hand and said.

"Since today is a spring holiday, there is no need to abide by etiquette so strictly." Ye Yingwu smiled and patted Wu Chucai's shoulder, "Let the brothers relax, you look at the people sitting on horseback like facing a great enemy, as if they are Mongolian Tartars on all sides!" ”

Wu Chucai was suddenly a little helpless, he was originally a strict character, different from Jiang Tie and Xiao Yangzi, who always liked to joke with Ye Yingwu. What's more, although it is on the West Lake, but after all, it is also in Lin'an, who can guarantee that Jia Yidao will not play any tricks.

At that moment, Wu Chucai stiffened his neck and said: "It is the duty of his subordinates to protect the envoy, and it is difficult for his subordinates to obey the orders of the envoy!" ”

"You kid really has a temper." Ye Yingwu glared, after all, he still didn't know what to say.

Zhao Yunshu smiled and tugged at his sleeve: "Okay, people are also dutiful, for your sake, why are you still so bad-tempered." ”

Ye Yingwu frowned, after all, he didn't say anything more, he also knew that Wu Chucai was thinking about himself, and his kindness couldn't be lived up to after all. A few people had already walked to the edge of the dock, where a painting boat was quietly parked.

"A few masters, please inside!" An old bustard twisted his waist and walked down, "Yo, there is such a handsome and pink little lady here, I don't know which brand it is, old mother, I am ・・・・・・ in this West Lake."

"Do what you have to do." Ye Yingwu said coldly, interrupting her words.

The old bustard felt that this young man was not an idle person, but he didn't have a little impression before, it shouldn't be in this Lin'an street where he was used to being majestic, but he was young and wealthy enough to charter a painting boat, and naturally he couldn't be a scholar.

The more I thought about it, the more apprehensive I became, the old bustard simply didn't guess, after all, this uncle just had to give money, and they didn't have any other requirements for those who were laughing, so they skillfully threw a wink at Ye Yingwu and made a gesture of please.

There were two beautiful maidservants standing on the side of the boat waiting, but when Zhao Yunshu boarded the painting boat with some curiosity, the two maids who thought highly of themselves couldn't help but bow their heads. This young girl not only has a charming appearance, but also has an air of wealth that they are difficult to match, as if it emanates from the bones, shocking the world.

Even Ye Yingwu couldn't help but be speechless, he grew up in the majestic palace forbidden, and this royal nobility was difficult to hide even in an ordinary dress. And the bustard's face also changed slightly, and then he realized that this girl with a pretty face and frost was not the top Oiran of the Qinglou that he had guessed before, and it was very likely that she was a rich lady.

However, her painting boat is also one of the best on the West Lake, and the little ladies in Lin'an City have not seen it, but today this young man and woman are all familiar faces. Isn't it a family member of the prime minister who went to Beijing not long ago? But the minister who recently entered Lin'an is the only one.

At the beginning, the old bustard also took his own warbler Yanyan to see it from a long distance, and he still had some impressions of the young and talented Ye Yuanjun, but Ye Yuanjun was just a twenty-year-old person, and he was the second in the family, how could he have such an old family?

Suddenly, a figure that had been gradually forgotten by the shopkeepers of major restaurants in Lin'an and the old bustard of the Qinglou appeared in the old bustard's mind, the Ye Yanei who once made the Lin'an people retreat in person, and the Ye Yanei who had single-handedly fought with the Lu family who was drunk with the spring breeze.

It's exactly the same as the smiling young man in front of him. It's just that the young man's skin in front of him is darker, and the heroic spirit between his eyebrows replaces the pale that he had indulged in wine before. It seems to have undergone a rebirth of the tempering, but you can still perceive the feeling of the year in your gestures.

If it hadn't been for holding down the side of the boat with one hand, the bustard would have almost collapsed on the boat.

That Ye Yanei is back! And who doesn't know that Ye Yanei and Ye Yuanjun, who took the Great Song Erlang to learn to fight in Xiangyang and became famous all over the world, were the same person.

"Ye ・・・・・・ Ye Xianggong, old woman, I don't know Mount Tai with my eyes, and I don't know Mount Tai with my eyes!" The old bustard knelt directly on the boat, "There was a lot of offense between the words just now, and I ask Ye Xianggong not to be surprised." The old woman is really blind, and she insults your lady with my despicable stinky mouth, damn it! ”

Ye Yingwu was stunned, and Zhao Yunshu in front of him also paused suddenly.

"Old woman, I will slap my own mouth, and I will slap my own mouth!" The old bustard's voice was already crying, and he stretched out his hand and slapped himself hard, and the two maidservants behind her also bowed timidly, "Please also ask Mrs. Ye for forgiveness, and please Mrs. Ye for her great kindness and don't blame the old woman!" ”

No wonder this pair of sons and women have such extraordinary temperament, the man is very heroic, and the woman is captivating. Looking at Lin'an, such an outstanding couple partner, only Ye Yuanjun can meet it. Who doesn't know that Lin'an Oiran was Ye Yuanjun's concubine that day, and the eldest lady of the Ye family was the little lady of Zhenjiang Lumen, such a noble background and the momentum of the girl in front of her were just right.

"Ben・・・・・・ I'm not him!" Zhao Yunshu's face was crimson, and she almost couldn't help revealing her identity.

And Ye Yingwu scratched his head a little embarrassed, he didn't have the courage to leap into Lin'an at all, and glared at the old bustard who was at a loss: "What nonsense!" ”

The old bustard didn't know where he was wrong, but after thinking about it, at this time, swimming in the lake, it would not be a young couple who had nothing to do, it was clearly a man and a woman in love, and according to this posture, it was naturally Ye Yuanjun who pursued others. At that moment, the old bustard secretly scolded himself for being really old and confused, and hurriedly went down to order. Ye Yuanjun appreciates the light, and it is such a secret news, even if the old bustard does not collect money this time, he can still make enough money from those who come here through hype.

Ye Yingwu chased Zhao Yunshu to the second floor, I have to say that Wu Chucai really doesn't save money for Ye Yuanjun, this painting boat is enough for twenty or thirty people to have a banquet on the upper and lower floors, not to mention those reserved places for singing and dancing, but now it is two people, no matter how you look at it, it is too extravagant.

The stairs are all paved with mahogany, and the top of the head is carved beams. The windows on the second floor are all open, the warm spring breeze is blowing, and the green mountains and green water enter the window with the wind, and I don't know whether it is on the boat or in the West Lake like a fairy.

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Yunshu said softly: "This is very expensive." Go back and let the queen mother give you the commission, and you shouldn't trouble Ye Yuanjun to break the fee. ”

Ye Yingwu casually twisted up the wine jug on the table, poured himself a glass, the faint aroma of wine fluttered in the wind, it is the exclusive Fengle wine brewed by Lin'an Fengle Building, the taste is delicious, Lin'an no one can match, so every jar of wine comes out, will be robbed by Lin'an City, and has the reputation of "it is difficult to buy drunk with a thousand gold". I have to say that this old bustard can put a pot on every table, and he is indeed a person with some ability.

"Her Royal Highness the princess is really tormenting the villain." Ye Yingwu said jokingly, "It's just a gesture and a trivial matter, how can you let Her Royal Highness the princess break the bank." If it spreads, wouldn't it mean that a certain Ye Yingwu is greedy for money and stingy to the point of no return? ”

Zhao Yunshu didn't pay attention to him, obviously still angry in his heart.

The boat has slowly departed from the dock. Outside the Qiantang Gate, along the lake is Jiuqu Road, Desheng Bridge, Huangshan Bridge, Broom Dock, the front of the broken bridge, Zhaoxian Temple until Qixialing.

Gently ploughing the soft water waves, Ye Yingwu walked to the window with a wine glass, and Zhao Yunshu was already there looking at the railing. The rivers and mountains are picturesque, unfolding one by one in front. The restaurants along the road and the song shops near the lake still hear laughter and bursts of sheng songs even during the day.

"There's a broken bridge ahead." Ye Yingwu pointed to the bridge that showed his body in the sparkling waves, and the embankment that stretched into the lake, like a jade belt, "After the bridge is broken, there is the white causeway and the autumn moon of the Pinghu Lake among the ten views of the West Lake. ”

Zhao Yunshu looked at it in a daze, and did not speak, as if he was comparing the scene he sketched through books and words with the real scene in front of him, and his pretty face showed a happy look, and he waited until the painting boat slowly turned around outside the broken bridge, and then said softly:

"The broken bridge and the remnants of snow, the sky and the earth are white, as if it is a beauty that exists in poetry and painting."

Ye Yingwu nodded: "This West Lake is long, and it is originally a natural picture. ”

Zhao Yunshu smiled, and immediately looked at Ye Yingwu's wine glass curiously: "Seeing that you enjoy it so much, is this wine really delicious?" (To be continued.) )
