0129 Riding the waves is an enemy
Who said that a woman's hand strength is small, Gao Wenxin's slap went down, and Tang Bohu's left cheek suddenly brightened like a peach blossom. was beaten and scolded as a sven scum, Rao is the first genius in Jiangnan who is merry and wise, and he was also beaten stupid.
Yang Ling saw his appearance, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice: Fortunately, it was my ass that Wenxin slapped at the beginning, if I also received such a slap in the face, I am afraid that I will not be able to see anyone for three days!
The saddest part of Gao Wen's heart is to be despised and insulted by the person she cares about the most in her heart, she rushed to the lake with tears in her eyes, just wanting to throw herself into the vast smoke wave, and it will be a hundred from then on.
A few boatmen who were pulling the boat by the lake, half of them were dressed as fans of the inner factory, and when they saw the inseparable maid of the factory superintendent, they covered their faces and ran, Yang Qincha shouted for help, and followed closely, and immediately two men dressed as fishermen walked forward side by side, and said with a smile: "The girl stays."
Gao Wen said angrily: "Get out of the way for me", said and stretched out his hand to push, but before his hand touched the chests of the two fans, his slender waist tightened, and he was hugged by the whole person.
Gao Wen's heart was shocked and angry, and he struggled and shouted: "Let go of me, you let go of me". She turned her head and saw that it was Yang Ling who hugged her waist and picked her up, and the strength of her body suddenly weakened a little, and her legs, which were originally kicking backwards, also softened.
Yang Ling took advantage of the situation to grab a few steps, went around to the back of a thick and twisted willow tree, put down Gao Wen and said anxiously: "My eldest lady, what are you doing, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" ”
Mo Qinghe, Wu Jiyuan, the Four Great Talents and others stood in the pavilion and looked at the willow tree, only to see that the spicy beauty suddenly showed her head, as if she was about to run away, followed by a pair of hands suddenly stretched out, grabbed her waist and pulled her back.
Then through the willow tree, I could only see half of the backs of the two, only to see the back of Lord Yang, who belonged to the inner factory and the commander of the pro-army who was ordered to patrol the series, straight and bent, as if he was bowing, and kept begging for mercy.
Zhu Dabeard couldn't drink any more wine, he stroked his long beard, stretched his neck and looked over, and saw that the two figures behind the tree were pushing and shoving at first, and then getting closer and closer, and finally except for a pair of heels, even the figures could not be seen.
Suddenly, a gust of wind came, only to see a corner of the silk ribbon fluttering behind the tree, and Yang Ling's robe moved slightly. couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and eyelids for a while, and he squeezed his eyebrows and said: "Tang Jieyuan quickly pick up the pen, Lao Zhu looks like he is about to stage a living spring palace."
Wen Zhengming elbowed him and scolded in a low voice: "Pour your yellow soup, Wu Weng and the distinguished guests in his house are also there."
Xu Zhenqing also smiled dryly: "Although that maid is not a big daughter, it seems that she is also very self-respecting and self-loving, I wish to be cautious, so as not to be like Brother Tang."
Tang Bohu listened, stroked his hot cheeks and smiled bitterly, his slap was in vain, I am afraid that these heartless big-mouthed friends will still publicize it, but a few of them are used to being unruly, and they have the right to be a romantic affair, and they don't feel that they have lost face.
Yang Ling explained and persuaded again, and later I didn't know if Gao Wen's anger was still gone, or she still wanted to enjoy the feeling of snuggling in his arms, she was hugged by Yang Ling's waist, and the little bird was snuggled in her arms like a human, and she sobbed for a long time before she said in a tortuous manner: "Even if they hit it off with the master at first sight, there is no reason to show off their privacy drawings everywhere."
That Lian'er girl was born in a green building, should they show her to others unscrupulously? It's said to be wild and uninhibited, but it's not a trampling person? They are unsatisfactory in their careers, so they are cynical in the name of romance, and they are ultimately frivolous and informal. I don't know how many people in the court are staring at the master, trying to find your fault, and the master really shouldn't have too much fellowship with them."
Gao Wenxin said a lot of reason, the debauchery of these talented people in later generations only felt that it was a rebellion against feudal etiquette, people only relish in their romantic affairs, thinking that they are jealous of their talents, and they encounter injustice, but they don't know that their self-abandonment behavior is certainly in the eyes of the people at the time, and it is an interesting anecdote, but they are also self-excluded from their careers, with this kind of experience, how can they still be seen in the court?
To put it bluntly, their behavior is to put on a show, not to be elegant, people will use these interesting things as after-dinner conversations, but they will not regard such 'stars' as pillars of society.
Yang Ling's excitement when he first saw the Four Great Talents calmed down a little, and he suddenly realized that if he was obsessed with their reputation in the future and mingled with them, wouldn't he be giving opportunities to those who were looking down on them and wanted to put themselves to death?
Yang Ling sighed, tightened her wrist, and said sincerely: "Wen Xin, you are right, no matter what, in my capacity, it is a bit frivolous to openly discuss these things with them, and during this time in Jiangnan, I have avoided the open and secret battles between the DPRK and China, I am really a little careless."
Gao Wenxin was coaxed and persuaded by him, knowing that he had a misunderstanding, the anger in his heart had long since disappeared, and listening to his sincere tone, she felt a little reluctant in her heart, she struggled with her face, and said lightly: "It hurts to be caught by you, I don't plan to jump into the lake again, what are you still pulling me to do?" ”
Yang Ling laughed, let go of his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back, Gonggong Mo and Mr. Wu must be very worried."
Gao Wenxin lowered his head, lightly scratched the ground with embroidered shoes, and said timidly: "I'm embarrassed to go over, the master wants to swim in the lake, I'm waiting for you here."
Yang Ling smiled and said: "That small boat can only carry two people, I'll row a boat today, let you have a fun day, okay?" ”
Gao Wenxin raised his head, glanced at him in surprise, and then said hesitantly: "Master, I'm just a subordinate, you don't have to be so polite to me."
Yang Ling sighed and teased: "Miss Gao, since I brought you into the door, you said, do I really treat you as a maidservant?" If you fill me with these words, you will be ashamed."
Gao Wen's face turned red, he opened his mouth, but he didn't speak, Yang Ling smiled, turned around and walked to the small pavilion.
Yang Ling walked into the pavilion with his head held high, and Wu Jiyuan stepped forward nervously and asked, "Young Master Yang, can Miss Gao dissipate her anger?" ”
Yang Ling waved his hand and said disapprerovitically: "Woman, it's really inexplicable, I reprimanded her, and now she is much more honest."
Mo Qinggu hurriedly coughed twice, held back a smile, and then brushed the ground and twisted his head to the side of Taihu Lake, holding his hands behind his back to enjoy the scenery.
Yang Ling didn't know that he was hiding behind a tree and bowing in the eyes of others, so he smiled apologetically to Tang Bohu and said: "Brother Tang, I'm really sorry, the younger brother is not strict in discipline, and that servant actually hurt Brother Tang, I am really ashamed."
Tang Bohu laughed dryly twice and said: "Nothing, nothing, if there is no gift from this palm, how can Tang see such a moving picture?" ”
Yang Ling was surprised: "What picture? Brother Tang made another painting, but couldn't you? ”
Tang Bohu hurriedly waved his hand and smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, no, no, uh, but this ten beautiful pictures, I have a new idea, but I have to change it, I'm afraid I can't complete it today."
Yang Ling hurriedly said: "Don't be in a hurry, I don't know if Brother Tang paints, how much does a painting cost?" If you go back to your house and paint, I will call someone to dare when you turn back, and the silver is a lot of money."
Tang Bohu hurriedly said: "Young Master Yang, although this painting is taken from the maidservant girl in your house, but this painting is mine, I will never sell these ten beautiful pictures in a single piece, and I hope Gongzi understands." ”
At that time, there was no portrait rights law, Tang Bohu was right, and Yang Ling didn't feel anything wrong, but in his heart, Tang Bohu's paintings were priceless, if a complete set of ten beautiful pictures, he didn't know how much silver it would cost, but he didn't want Gao Wenxin's portrait to be taken by others.
Yang Ling couldn't help but hesitate: "Then these ten beautiful pictures, I don't know how much money Brother Tang has to sell before he can sell them?" ”
Tang Bohu looked at Wu Jiyuan's respectful appearance towards him, and concluded that this person must be a noble son with a very high status, who can make the richest man in Suzhou so deferential, maybe he is still a wealthy family in Beijing, so he has the heart to knock him, he stared at Yang Ling's expression, and said hesitantly: "It is not easy to put together ten beautiful pictures, and Tang also spent nearly a year, so the price is more expensive than the usual single calligraphy and painting, at least five or five."
Tang Bohu sells paintings, and the carefully painted ones only cost twenty taels, and although ten beautiful pictures are rare, they cost five hundred taels, and he himself felt that he was a bit of a lion's mouth.
But it's rare for him to meet a reluctant spender, looking at Yang Shan's love for that beautiful maid so much, he must be a rich son who pities flowers and cherishes jade, this opportunity is really rare.
He hesitated and was about to say the price, Wu Jiyuan already knew in his heart when he heard it, he had been squeezed by Li Gui's nouveau riche recently, but the political envoy and the prefect of Suzhou, who usually used a lot of silver, also ignored it, if he climbed the high branch of Yang Ling, who would dare to bully the Wu Mansion?
If Tang Bohu's bid was low, he would not be sincere when he bought it and gave it to Yang Ling, so he hurriedly grabbed the conversation and said, "Five thousand taels? Okay, Tang Xie Yuan drew these ten beautiful pictures as soon as possible, and I bought them for five thousand taels of silver."
After speaking, he smiled and said to Yang Ling: "When I take these ten beautiful pictures, I will immediately send someone to send you to the mansion of Gongzi."
When Tang Bohu heard this, he raised the drawing board in his hand and said, "Okay, then Tang will give this 'Moonlit Night Backyard Flower' for free, and then send it to the Zun Mansion together."
Yang Ling laughed when he heard it, he touched his nose, glanced at the painting and said, "Brother Tang, this painting is a backyard flower?" Hehe, this benevolent brother in the painting is tightly blocked, but I really can't see it."
Tang Bohu heard that Yang Ling was picking on his paintings, but he was a little anxious, he said seriously: "Painting, pay attention to the subtle beauty and artistic conception, don't you see that beauty covering her shame with one hand?" So where is the source of Taoyuan? Don't you know it? ”
Zhu Zhishan and the other two lustful men shook their heads together with a smile and said: "Exactly, exactly, not to mention this sentence: 'Turn around and tell you to be lighter, not like the ordinary waves', the finishing touch."
Yang Ling's heart felt a chill when he heard this: This is the great talent in my heart, the big puppet, you are too, no wonder you can't be an official, dare to love that little talent is all used on this.
A blue lotus wave, far and near several small boats rowing on the water knee-high lotus bushes, if you don't stand up, it is rare to see each other.
Zheng Baihu and more than 20 fans rowed a small boat to surround this area from a distance to prevent tourists from breaking in. Senior Brother and Sister Tian in a boat, Mo Qinghe and Wu Jiyuan in a boat, Yang Ling really fulfilled his promise, and Gao Wenxin rowed a small boat alone in the lotus waves.
Gao Wenxin happily sat on the bow of the boat, picked up the clear lake water and sprinkled it on the turquoise lotus leaves, the lake overflowed, gradually condensed into small water droplets, the boat moved forward gently, and the dense water chestnut leaves were squeezed by the water force, automatically divided to both sides.
The small and delicate white rhombic flowers are dotted among the green leaves and red lotus, elegant and fresh. Gao Wenxin turned over the water chestnut roots, happily searched for the red fruits, and put the picked water chestnuts on the skirt, and had already saved two large handfuls.
Suddenly, a big fish that was alarmed jumped out of the water, drew an arc under Gao Wenxin's eyelids, and smashed into the water with a "tom", splashing a wave, which startled her. Yang Ling couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.
Gao Wenxin glanced at him prettyly, and his expression was extremely moving. Her shiny hair was slightly messy in front of her forehead, and the crystal clear water droplets were stained on her white and delicate cheeks, as if oozing out from under the skin, Yang Ling's eyes lit up, and she just wanted to praise her, but she stopped talking again.
Gao Wenxin saw his expression, a look of resentment flashed in her eyes, she picked up a red ling, hung her head and whispered: "Ling'er is all dependent on each other, and the autumn water always feels cold." With poetry in her mouth, the corners of her eyes were already secretly aimed at Yang Ling.
Master Yang really cooperated, and hurriedly slapped his face twice, and said: "Good poetry, good poetry", Gao Wenxin was a little discouraged: "Is the master pretending to be stupid or really not understanding?" Didn't he become the top talent in Xuanfu at the age of 16? ”
Yang Ling didn't know that Gao Wenxin was using poetry to provoke love, he slapped his chin twice and saw that Gao Wenxin was still a little depressed, so he let go of the oar and said: "After rowing for a while, I'm a little hungry, come, let's eat something first."
Gao Wenxin said "um", picked up the water chestnut, walked back to the cabin and sat down, reached out to take the lacquered shiny food box, the food box has a total of four layers, she took out the dishes in it and put it on the small table in the middle.
The bottom of the food box in Wufu is iron, with a built-in charcoal fire, and a layer of water barrier on the top, so it has been put for so long, the food in the box is still hot, this Nanren eats exquisite dishes, there are not many dishes in the box, probably only enough to eat a few bites, but there are a lot of patterns, the first dish is a piece of square meat, thick tuk, blessed, moist and plump, a piece of meat skin is even more golden, which makes people look at the appetite, it is a piece of Dongpo meat.
The second dish is Dongting shrimp, which is cooked with river prawns, a specialty of Dongting Lake. In addition, such as osmanthus taro, oil spring rolls, fried gold bricks, soup dumplings, braised duck, and fried eel, all show the characteristics of Soochow culture, elegance, fineness and ingenuity.
Lotus boating, lotus picking among flowers, delicacies and wine, and red sleeves add fragrance, even if you don't drink, you are drunk. What's more, surrounded by lotus leaves sticking out of the water, there is only a smiling beauty in the middle.
Yang Ling remembered that Gao Wenxin had lost his temper, and secretly had a bad heart, and wanted to teach her a little lesson, so he took out the old man's style and asked her to drink a few cups too.
Gao Wenxin couldn't shirk it, so he had to drink a few glasses, the wine fell into her stomach, her cheeks rose up a ball of red, Yang Ling looked secretly proud, but he asked people to drink, and he couldn't help but drink, as a result, the wine in the tin pot was drunk cleanly, Yang Ling already felt top-heavy, although the tall lady's complexion was like a layer of rouge, her eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and she didn't see any drunkenness.
Gao Wenxin was alone with Yang Ling for the first time, the first time he drank with him, the first time he was hugged by him, and the first time he was so tactfully persuaded by him.
She lifted the poured-out tin pot with a smile, and said to Yang Ling Yanran: "The master became famous at the age of sixteen, but he is a genius in the north, and now that the wine has been drunk, how about the slave and the master as substitutes for wine?"
The slave has a pair of upper couplets, please ask the master to pair it: mention the tin pot, swim in the West Lake, the tin pot falls into the West Lake, pity, tin pot! Sir, please answer correctly. ”
Yang Ling was startled when he heard that he was going to pair it, a few modern people have learned that thing, and when he heard what she said, he was even more dizzy, although he had never heard of this pair, but he also heard that the difficulty of this pair was that the three words were the homonyms of West Lake.
He didn't know that this pair was used by someone to embarrass the scholar Su Dongpo in the past, and Su Dongpo was also stumped by this pair at that time, and he also said that it was a pair from Gao Wen's heart, so he admired it in his heart.
He pondered for a long time, and finally came up with three words with similar pronunciations, which could barely be put together, and then said to Gao Wenxin: "Well, I came up with a pair, but the artistic conception is too far worse than your Shanglian, I said it, you are not allowed to laugh at me."
Gao Wenxin couldn't help but show surprise on his face when he heard this, this pair has been around for hundreds of years, and I don't know how many talented people have taken great pains to get right, but in order to pursue the same pronunciation, he barely made up some lower couplets, and the artistic conception is as beautiful as the upper couplet, but there is no one.
My own master was able to come up with the next link so quickly, which is already extremely valuable, and what kind of artistic conception do you talk about.
Gao Wenxin was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly said: "Master, come quickly, the maid will listen to you."
Yang Ling gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "Good brother-in-law, hire a wife, brother-in-law who is out of moderation, husband, brother-in-law."
Gao Wenxin's eyes widened, his small mouth was slightly open, and he looked at him in amazement for a long time, but he didn't say a word. Yang Ling couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Look, look, let me say, the artistic conception is too far away."
Gao Wenxin suddenly turned around, leaned on the boat and covered her face with her sleeves, just to see her shoulders keep shaking, and the boat also swayed from side to side, and finally this lady who has always been very particular about manners finally laughed out loud regardless of her image.
Yang Ling looked at her, his face was red and white, and after a while, he said stupidly: "Look, I drink wine so much, I have to deal with something, it's really a bad scenery."
Gao Wenxin saw that he was annoyed, and hurriedly sat down, she bit her lower lip tightly, and tried her best to hold back a smile, with two tears in her eyes, her body shook like a swing, Yang Ling couldn't help but stand up in annoyance, and said, "Laugh, laugh, laugh to death, I'll pull it down."
Gao Wenxin saw that he was annoyed and didn't dare to laugh anymore, she hurriedly stood up and coaxed softly: "Master, it's the sin of the slave, don't be angry." ”
The boat was already rocking from side to side, Yang Ling stood up, the boat tilted to the left, Gao Wen stood up in a hurry, and his footing was unstable, and he almost fell into the river.
Although Yang Ling said that he was annoyed, it was really because his pair was too unsuitable to be on the stage, so he felt that he could come up with three near-phonetic words, and there was an exclamation that was the same as regret, and this eagerness was already rare to say.
When I saw Gao Wenxin laughing, I felt too shameless, and then I saw that Gao Wenxin was in a hurry, standing unsteadily and wanted to fall into the river, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, Gao Wenxin threw himself into his arms in fear, until the boat slowly stabilized, and then left his arms with a blushing face.
At this time, Gao Wenxin had just drunk wine, his jade face was crimson, his temples were scattered, his eyebrows were like slender willows locking a pool of spring light, and his bright eyes were like the moon lying in the autumn water, Yang Ling was stunned for a while.
Gao Wenxin stood still, and when he saw his gaze, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and lowered his head shyly, but he couldn't help but glance at him quickly.
The eyebrows were raised, and the words seemed to be even more **, stealing the eyebrows, hinting at Tan Lang, what a charm it was, Yang Ling knew that it shouldn't be, but he couldn't help it, and couldn't help but lean in and kiss her quickly.
Gao Wenxin's ruddy lips were full and soft, and when he kissed her gently, her lips immediately became wet, and her bright eyes suddenly seemed to turn into two jars of mellow old wine.
The Wupeng boat is leisurely, the wind sends the fragrance of lotus flowers, and the goddess doctor, who has never been drunk, looks hazy and drunk at this time, as if sending an affectionate invitation to Yang Ling.
Yang Ling kissed it, but he seemed to wake up from his beauty, he hurriedly let go of his hand and said: "Wenxin, it's me who is not good, we can't I shouldn't."
After being drunk, it was difficult to control his feelings, and when he forgot to kiss him, he realized that he had made a big mistake. Gao Wenxin's affection for him, he had already seen it in his heart, and he had been reminding himself not to fall too deep, but all the way south, unconsciously, her continuous love network had already brought him together.
It was not until this moment that Yang Ling realized that he had already liked her in his heart, but because of his own heart disease, he could only struggle and escape like a fish caught in a net
Yang Ling sat back in his seat and grabbed the wine glass, only to find that the glass was empty. He didn't dare to look up at the resentful and disappointed eyes of Gao Wenxin sitting opposite, and only thought in his heart: I can't incur love debts anymore, Wenxin is more sensible than Yu'er, I might as well reveal some of my own affairs to her and cut off her thoughts.
Yang Ling thought of this, raised his head and just wanted to speak, when a delicate voice suddenly came from front of him and said, "Hey, I just saw someone standing near here, brother, paddle a little further, hey, where are you?" ”
Yang Ling heard the sound of the water beside him, and Zhang Tian's brothers and sisters had already rowed the boat and floated over, so he swallowed the words back, he saw Gao Wenxin hanging his head, twisting the corners of his clothes with a self-pitying and self-hurting look, so he hurriedly said to her: "Wenxin, I have my own suffering, not to deceive your identity." Alas, when I go back to Hangzhou, I will tell you my secret when I go back, and you will understand everything."
Mo Qinghe also warmly invited the brothers and sisters to visit Hangzhou, and the two brothers and sisters just accepted a welcome from the audience in Hangzhou, and then took the sedan car of Wufu to stay in Suzhou, and did not swim the West Lake, so they came happily.
All the way without incident, Zhang Tianshi and Mo Gonggong played Go in the cabin, don't look at the smell of Zhang Tianshi's chess, that hand of Go is very clever. Yang Ling didn't know how to play Go, so he felt bored for a while, and then looked at the scenery in front of the cabin for a while, and then returned to his cabin.
Gao Wenxin was sitting in the cabin thinking about his thoughts alone, and when he saw him come back, he hurriedly stood up. Since returning from Taihu Lake, the two have always been a little uncomfortable when they are alone. Yang Lingqiang smiled: "I've been sitting outside for a long time, my body is a little tired, I want to go into the inner cabin to rest for a while."
Gao Wenxin has always had doubts in his heart, he doesn't know what secrets he has, since he can accept Yu'er and Xue'er, and he has feelings for himself, but he refuses to accept himself, and wants to ask him now, but a girl is embarrassed to show too much urgency, seeing that Yang Ling is about to enter the inner cabin as soon as she lifts the sedan curtain, she still can't help but say: "Master."
Yang Ling stopped his steps, turned around and asked, "Huh?" What's up? ”
Gao Wenxin's face turned red, and he said hesitantly: "Ah nothing, shall we go back to Hangzhou directly?" ”
Yang Ling shook his head and said: "No, it's too late to return to Hangzhou, let's stop halfway, go to Haining first, stay for one night, and then go back to Hangzhou tomorrow."
"Oh", Gao Wenxin heard that he couldn't hear the secret he was eager to know tonight, and couldn't help but say disappointedly: "Master went to Haining, but do you want to enjoy the world-famous Haining tide?" ”
Yang Lingqi said: "Is there a tide in Haining to see?" I've only heard of the Qiantang Tide, which is famous all over the world."
The corners of Gao Wenxin's mouth curled, but he didn't dare to laugh anymore, but said in a low voice: "Haining tide is Qiantang tide."
Yang Ling was stunned, and said dejectedly: "That's it, sir, I am disgraced in front of you, Qiantang tide is not good to call its Qiantang tide, but what is Haining tide, it's really a shame."
Although Gao Wenxin was full of worries, she was still amused by him and smiled, and she hurriedly explained: "The master is a northerner, and he didn't have time to inquire about these idle things when he was in Beijing, I don't know what is embarrassing?" However, if this Qiantang tide is seen on August 18 every year, it will be spectacular, and although there is also a tide now, it is much inferior."
Yang Ling said: "Just take a look, I'll go, mainly to visit Lord Min, he is my old boss, I went to Jiangnan, he has come to see me, I don't go to see him, I will be ashamed of the old man."
Speaking of this, he paused, glanced at Gao Wenxin gently, and said softly: "I'll go to sleep, I don't need to call someone to wait, if you are tired, take a rest." ”
Gao Wenxin suddenly remembered something, and wanted to tell Yang Ling, but after thinking about it, it had nothing to do with Yang Ling and himself, and it was difficult for a girl to say these things, so he nodded, and watched Yang Ling go back to the room, and he was also lying on the couch with his clothes closed, looking at the cabin with his eyes open, and unexpectedly remembered that strange thing again.
Today, Mrs. Mo came back from the Yamen of the Political Envoy Division, and there was a difference in her expression and gait, although ordinary people could not see the difference, Gao Wenxin saw the clue, she saw that Mrs. Mo's cheeks were red, her eyebrows were greasy like water, and her gait was a little soft and soft, and she couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Based on her understanding of the human body as a medical student, she knows that if a woman's expression and gait suddenly appear in this abnormal way, she must have just traveled through the clouds and rain, and she has had a fit with people.
Father-in-law Mo is a eunuch, and he traveled to Taihu Lake with Yang Ling, Mrs. Mo came back from the political envoy Yamen alone, and she actually had a spring in her eyebrows, as if she had just had sex with someone, could she not abide by the woman's way and hide from her husband and steal people?
Gao Wenxin thought for a long time with his arm on his pillow, and then sighed faintly: "Forget it, although this matter is a cold, after all, it is someone's privacy, if you want me to listen to the master, I am also ashamed to speak, my own affairs are still too worried, what do you do to care about other people's affairs?" ”
"Alas, the master obviously has affection for me and me, why don't you accept me? Because I'm a slave? No! No, he's not like that, he says there's a secret, what kind of secret does he have that makes him refuse to accept me? ”
Gao Wenxin lay on the couch, his ears heard the river surging, and his heart fluctuated, tossing and turning along the way, constantly thinking about this question, but it was always difficult to sleep peacefully.
In the tide viewing pavilion under the Zhenhai Tower in Yanguan Town, Haining, Yang Ling stood in the pavilion wearing an inky black coat, and Gao Wenxin stood behind him. Mo Qinghe, Mrs. Mo, Zhang Tian's brothers and sisters, as well as the salt transportation envoy Lord Min, the local garrison Qianhu and several local salt merchants also accompanied him.
Min Wenjian faced the wind and waves, and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, the tide in Haining in August is as high as several zhang, and the sound of the waves is like thunder, which is very beautiful.
Although Min Wenjian did not have the idea of clinging to the powerful, but the friendship between the two is not shallow, and now his deceased has become such a big official in Beijing, and he has made a special trip to visit him, and it is common for him to be glorious and happy in his heart, so his expression is very happy.
Yang Ling came to visit this time, in fact, in addition to visiting Min County, who had the grace of knowing him, he had other plans in his heart. He had sent people back to Beijing to report to the emperor about the illegal acts of Bi Chun, the commander of Long Shanwei, and Yuan Xiong, the commander of the customs guard.
Bi Chunxi said that he had already seen it when he was in the Jiming Station, and he knew that this person was not so easy to deal with, especially his personal guards of nearly 200 people, all of whom were brave and good at fighting, and they were loyal to Bi Chun. As for Yuan Xiong, tax cards are set up everywhere, and there is a group of outlaws under him, and he will not be a person who is tied up. Once the crimes of these two people are confirmed, it will be a serious crime of murder, and they cannot but be prevented from jumping off the wall in a hurry.
Yang Ling heard Wu Jie's report before he left Beijing, and there were generals in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who had committed capital crimes and simply led the pro-army to kill the officials and rebelled, robbed the ordnance and fled into the sea to join the pirates.
If you only rush into Bi Chun's camp, which still has nearly 3,000 people, with only your own 300 pro-troops, if Bi Chun makes a heart, he can't suppress his own bullets, and I'm afraid he will be counterattacked. So last time, as soon as he heard that Min Wenjian had a guard of salt officers and troops here, there were about 300 people, and his combat power was more sophisticated than that of ordinary guards, so Yang Ling was interested.
He sent Liu Biao to inquire and learned that there was still a thousand households stationed here. It is said that there are thousands of households, but in fact, there are only more than 500 people, and half of the soldiers are missing, but when it is critical, you can ask for a holy decree to seize its commander and take its army, and Min Wenjian will also control this army and cooperate with him to capture Bi Chun and Yuan Xiong.
Yang Ling came here, using the military parade as an excuse, and asked Min Wenjian and Chong Qianhu to transfer all the 300 salt guards and 500 officers and soldiers of the guard station to the riverside, hoping to let them practice first after watching the tide and see their combat strength.
Yang Ling has the responsibility of supervising civil and military officials, and he is also the commander of the emperor's guards and pro-army, so such a small-scale investigation of the army's combat strength, although it is not a request, is not excessive.
Father-in-law Mo disturbed his sleeves and stood aside a little excited, this time Yang Ling suddenly changed his route to visit Haining, and he didn't let him know in advance, he was a little unhappy in his heart, and the tide in October was much inferior to that in August, so he was not interested in taking a look, so he didn't step forward from the position of standing in the back to avoid the wind.
Those big salt merchants are under his jurisdiction, and they can't help but accompany him, and Mo Ye and Mo Ye are constantly flattering, and Mo Qinghe is only dealing with it.
The locals are not very interested in the early tide in October, but this time nearly 1,000 officers and soldiers stood straight on the riverside waiting for the review, which is a rare scenery, so many people and wealthy households in the town also rushed to the riverside to join in the excitement, and for a time the momentum was really like the style of watching the tide in August.
The wind gradually became urgent, Min Wenjian cheered up and said, "Look, my lord, the tide is coming."
Yang Ling squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, the river was boundless, and in the eastern sky, there was a faint burst of rapid sound, and there was a white line at the pole eye, as the sound of the boom became louder and louder, the silver line became thicker and thicker, turning into a horizontal river white practice, tumbling over, and the roaring sound was like Yin thunder.
Min Wenjian suppressed the voice of the river tide with a loud voice, and said loudly: "Lord Yang, Zhang Tianshi, the 'pagoda first-line tide' here in Yanguan is extremely spectacular, but it's a pity that the tide is smaller today, and it is not spectacular enough."
He said that the tide was a little smaller today, but in a moment, the river rose sharply, and the waves of thousands of acres turned into a wall of water several meters high, and the sound of the tide was like a galloping horse, and the thunder pierced the ears. Yang Ling and Zhang Tianshi, who had never seen such a spectacle, were relaxed and happy, and sighed endlessly.
The tide peaks collide and protrude, and the tips of the waves are snow-white, like icebergs and snow peaks, which is thrilling. When the river tide rushed to the front of the dam, there was a thunderclap on the ground, the tide head was erected suddenly, and in an instant, the sky was full of waves and mist, and the limelight sent a burst of cool moisture, and Zhang Fubao, who was enthusiastic and rushed to the front, couldn't help but retreat back in embarrassment, causing Yang Ling and Zhang Tianshi to laugh.
Zhang Fubao snorted stupidly, pulled his brother's robe sleeve and wiped his face, and his interest in watching the tide did not diminish at all. Once the front wave retreats, it becomes an obstacle for the back wave, the tide collides with each other, the front wave is blocked, the back wave rises again, a wave is higher than a wave, although there is no shock of the first wave head, but the wave crest is steep, surging.
Yang Ling saw that although the wave was not extremely high, it was windy today, and the wind always sent a burst of mist, so he deliberately stood in front of Gao Wenxin's side to block the mist for her. Gao Wenxin sensed his intentions, and his heart couldn't help but be as sweet as honey.
Although the tide comes and goes quickly, Yang Ling's few outsiders who have never seen the Qiantang tide have not seen enough, and the tide has begun to show signs of retreating.
Zhang Fubao then turned around and smiled: "Lord Yang, I remember that when you were in Shanghai Town, you said that the White Lady called for wind and rain, and the water was full of Jinshan, at that time I couldn't imagine what kind of spectacular scene it should be.
Yang Ling laughed when he heard this: "It's not enough, that wave can flood Jinshan Temple, isn't the wave peak higher than the mountain?" If you imagine that there are many shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Dragon Palace on the head of the waves, some with guns and some with hammers, standing on the crest of the waves."
While pointing at Jiang Chao, he was talking and laughing, and when he was talking energetically, he suddenly smiled on the ground, and pointed to the distance in surprise: "What is that?" ”
Everyone followed his fingers and looked, only to see some black spots faintly appearing at the end of the continuous tide, Zhang Fubao laughed and said: "It's weird, it's weird, could it be that there are really shrimp soldiers and crabs in the future?" ”
There was a tidal and windy, and the black spot moved very fast, and after a moment's effort, it became clear that the black spot was actually a sailboat, and the boat had a square feeling, and the ship was hung with huge black sails.
Mo Qinghe was taken aback, and said in surprise and anger: "Damn, the banner of the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman, that is the sea ship of the Japanese people, quickly escort the adults away."
At this time, Min Wenjian also saw the sign on the ship, and exclaimed: "Sure enough, it's the widow who is here, his grandmother's, there are so many people this time, hurry up, protect Lord Qincha and the Heavenly Master to leave!" ”
The people standing on the embankment downstairs only saw more than 20 boats coming in the distance, and some of them were still standing by the river in a hurry before they could see the signs on the boats.
Yang Ling saw how he was willing to flee by himself, and he happened to transfer the officers and soldiers of the guard station and the salt transportation department to the parade, everyone was armed, although 200 of his own 300 pro-army returned to Hangzhou with the official ship, but he also brought 100 elites, and now the combat strength is nearly 1,000 people, and the more than 20 ships on the other side are large and small, the big ones can carry 300 people, and the small ones are only 40 or 50 people, and it is estimated that the total number of people will not be too much, and they may not have the ability to fight.
Yang Ling immediately shouted: "Don't mess up, the salt merchants and people in the pavilion all retreat, Lord Min and thousands of households, please restrain the troops immediately, form a formation to wait for the enemy, Zheng Baihu, immediately evacuate the people by the river."
The thousand households were wearing a shining armor, and they wanted to show their faces in front of Lord Qincha today, but they didn't expect to be on the table, and those wouldn't have been able to plunder the river for only three hundred and five hundred, which was already a lot of people, and this time there were more than a thousand people, so frightened that his face turned pale, but he didn't dare to show cowardice, and after listening to Yang Ling's orders, he hurriedly agreed, and went down to the pavilion and the whole team.
Min Wenjian is a madman soldier brought out by Du Madman, the chief soldier of Datong, and he was inexplicably excited when he saw the battle.
He laughed and said, "Grandma's, I was saying that I was going to show martial arts to Lord Qincha, and this would become a real sword and a real gun." I'll go down immediately, Lord Yang, and look at the majesty of my big sword! ”
As he spoke, he pedaled downstairs, Mo Qinghe's face was pale, and he tightened his cheeks and said: "It is not the responsibility of adults to get rid of the widows, adults should quickly dodge, if the adults make a little mistake, they can't afford it."
Yang Ling glanced at Gao Wenxin and said, "Wenxin, accompany Mrs. Mo and Miss Zhang to return to the town quickly, if we can't hold it, leave immediately."
Gao Wenxin straightened his chest and said: "Where the master is, I will be there, I will not leave!" ”
Yang Ling scolded suddenly: "Senseless move, pure bastard, what's the use of you staying?" Can you go into battle and kill the enemy? ”
Gao Wenxin said proudly: "My lord, can you go into battle to kill the enemy?" You don't retreat from the battle, it's to fix the army's heart, I'm a woman, I don't retreat from the battle, just to live and die with adults! ”
Yang Ling was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't answer for a while. Although Zhang Fubao's face was pale, after hearing her say this, and seeing that although his brother looked nervous, he had no intention of running away, so he plucked up his courage and said: "If you don't leave, I won't leave, there are many believers in my Heavenly Master Dao in this town, they came to the town last night, they worship and pray for blessings, and they respect them very much. ”
At this time, the people on the riverside already knew what was going on under the shouting of the inner factory, and began to help the old and the young, calling for their fathers and mothers, and snatching the dam all the way crying and screaming, and fled to the town like a desperate person.
Min Wenjian was still dressed as a civil official, but he was carrying his signature broadsword and leading a group of disheveled salt soldiers to stand on the left side of the dam.
The boats sailed straight to the shore through the river, roared and jumped out of the boat, and rushed to the shore in groups of three or five. Yang Ling saw that the clothes of those Japanese people were very messy, some were wearing Japanese clothes, some were wearing Hanfu, and some were wearing scribes' robes, but the robes were tucked into their waists, and even a few of them were wearing women's clothes, which showed that these Japanese robes were not very good at sea.
However, these miscellaneous pirates, although they were dressed in different clothes and had a variety of weapons in their hands, were all fierce and agile in their actions.
There are only a hundred people in the inner factory, of which there are only twenty archers, all of whom dare not leave the tide pavilion, after all, the important people are all on the pavilion, if there is a mistake, they all have to lose their heads, even if there is a regular army here, they are happy to retreat to the reserve to protect the adults.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the Japanese soldiers rushed ashore, some of the officers and soldiers of the guard station shouted, did not rush back, turned their butts and fled.
Yang Ling looked at his nose on the pavilion and almost lost his breath, at this time, there were not many people who got off the boat, as long as there was a burst of random arrows waiting, or directly waving the army to cover up and kill, he would definitely be able to seize the opportunity, I don't understand this simple truth, what kind of soldier and what kind of official is this?
Yang Ling was furious, he slapped the railing, and shouted to the pavilion: "Those who escape from the battle will be killed!" ”
"Yes! Those who escape from the battle will be killed! Zheng Baihu waved his hand, and several fans immediately opened their bows and arrows and shot at the officers and soldiers of the guard who fled first. These people used soul-intimidating arrows, which Yang Ling got from Jinyiwei when he was training the pro-army, and the arrows made a sharp roar when they were shot, which had a terrifying effect.
These archers were all sharp-archers one in a hundred, and when the arrows fell to people, the officers and soldiers of the guard who fled with them were stunned, and when they heard the inner factory fanzi shouting to them viciously: "Those who escape from the battle will be killed!" He had to cringe back again.
At this time, Min Wenjian had already led the salt soldiers to pounce, his salt soldiers had no bows and arrows, and could only meet with the Japanese in short arms.
Fortunately, these salt soldiers escorted the salt team, trekked through mountains and rivers, often fought with river thieves and mountain bandits, and were also good at fighting in groups, although the fierce murderous spirit was weaker than the other party, but there was a fierce tiger with a machete weighing dozens of pounds and rushed in front of the salt transport envoy Min, whose morale was extremely strong, and he could still hold on to the death.
Yang Ling saw that although the officers and soldiers of the guard had retreated, they all cowered into a ball and did not dare to move forward, and he couldn't help but smoke angrily. At this time, it was not the right time to purge the army, he could only helplessly shout to Zheng Baihu: "Zheng Baihu, lead your people to rush up for me, and ask thousands of households to send arrows to cover!" ”
Zheng Baihu listened and said hurriedly: "My lord, the duty of the humble duty is to protect the adult, and now there are only more than 100 personal soldiers around the adult, and the lowly duty does not dare to leave a little!" ”
Yang Ling was furious and said, "If you don't go, I'll go myself!" ”
Zheng Baihu was helpless, he stomped his feet hatefully, leaving the twenty archers to protect the tide viewing pavilion, he drew his sword in his hand, and led eighty soldiers to rush forward.
The farmer stood there dumbfounded, and when he heard Yang Ling's order to shoot arrows, he suddenly ordered the officers and soldiers to shoot arrows immediately as if he had woken up from a dream.
They lined up on the far right, there were a few boulders in the water there, and the river was relatively shallow, so the warships of the Japanese people did not dock at them, and they did not take the initiative to attack, and the Japanese who rushed ashore only attacked Min Wenjian's salt soldiers and Yang Ling's pro-army, and did not take care of them for the time being.
This gave them plenty of time, and they saw that the group of soldiers were able to draw their bows, set up arrows, pull strings, and fire, and with a "buzzing" sound, they shot in a row, and a rain of arrows rained down on the Japanese who were jumping off the boat.
Yang Ling laughed when he saw it in the pavilion, how could this rain of arrows kill and injure hundreds of pirates, it can be called a 'timely rain of arrows'.
I saw that the rain of arrows shot down the boat, and at least half of them hit the Japanese Kou, but as soon as the sharp arrows touched his body, he actually slipped down his clothes, and a few of them were shot on the hats of the Japanese people, and the staggering ones stuck on the top did not hurt anyone, and when I looked at it, it seemed that none of the Japanese were injured and fell to the ground in this rain of arrows.
Yang Ling and Zhang Tianshi stood on the pavilion and looked stupid, they opened their mouths wide, looked at this strange scene in amazement, and only looked at each other for a long time, and then jumped up together as if they were burning their buttocks, and shouted loudly: "How can this be true! Are the Japanese invulnerable? ”
