In March, Emperor Zhengde showed his might, kicked the six palaces of the inner court, punched the six departments of the outer court, and just settled the matter of Tang Yixian concubine, and then a handwritten edict was transmitted to the cabinet: "The mighty marquis, the admiral of the inner factory, the right pillar of the country dragon and tiger general Yang Ling on behalf of the heavenly patrol, through the Ji and Lu, through Xu Yang, to Nanjing, Linsu and Zhejiang, Fujiang Han, Shichuan Gui, through Shaanxi and Jin, through the Central Plains. Immediately! ”

The canal docks, still three giant ships. Yang Ling brought 1,000 elite soldiers, and the other four armies allocated another 3,000 elite soldiers to wait in Jinling from the dry road. This long journey, almost all over China, although this is a trick to make a trick, the real destination is only Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangxi and Sichuan, but the fastest round trip takes four months.

Just after drinking the candied wine, and sent away Li Dongyang, Jiao Fang, Yang Tinghe, Liu Jin, Dai Yi and a large number of officials from the inner and outer courts, Yang Ling walked to Han Youniang's side, gently brushed away the tears on her cheeks, and said softly: "Young lady, don't be sad, even if the emperor doesn't make an order this time, the prince will ask for a decree when he hears about it, hehe, didn't I tell you earlier, I was going to Jiangnan for a trip, send Li'er back, and at the same time inspect the opening of the sea in Jiangnan, and now I haven't gone to two more places."

The rebellion of the king of the Cha domain is too important, and there are few people in the court who know the truth, and Yang Ling has never mentioned it to Han Youniang. He held Han Youniang's hand and said: "I'm afraid it will take a few months to go, I'm not afraid it will take a few months, how can I come back before you give birth, I'm not here, you are the head of the family, don't cry anymore."

Yang Ling looked behind Han Youniang's shoulder, and the three beautiful little girls Yutangchun, Xue Limei, and Tang Yixian stood there gracefully, with six Luo skirts and Xiangjiang water, the color was as jade and blue.

Yang Ling raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Look at your appearance, I am just inspecting the world on behalf of the emperor, such an emperor can't think of it, it's only a few months before and after, what's there to be sad about?" The major matter in Jiangnan is solved, and I don't have to leave Jingshi in the future."

He saw Gao Wenxin standing farther away alone, his eyes were gloomy, but he didn't come closer, hesitated, and finally walked over. Gao Wenxin is also dressed as a lady, wearing a light cyan armor, a tall figure, a skirt dragging to the ground, and its color is bright red like fire like a newly blooming pomegranate.

Yang Ling walked in front of him and said in a low voice, "I'm leaving."

Gao Wen was silent, his eyes drooped slightly, and two tears slipped silently from his jade-like cheeks.

When she came back from Jiangnan, she was really snubbed too much, was it wrong to let her move out of the Yang Mansion so as not to have a rift between her sisters and brothers? When Yang Ling saw the tears, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and reached out to wipe her tears, but his hand was still a little away from the tender cheeks, and he stopped in the air.

What is a normal man most afraid of? A mesmerizing, pitiful woman wept lowly.

Yang Ling's heart was hot, and he looked away and said: "Yang can't afford to owe you your youth, and he can't live up to your deep affection, Wenxin, this time I can't take you with me." When I come back, if Yang is really as Zhang Tianshi said, and survives the catastrophe of life and death, you must be a member of the Yang family! ”

Gao Wen's delicate body was shocked, at this moment, she only felt that her heart was beating so fast, and her bright eyes seemed to have waited for a lifetime, and finally got what she wanted, full of shyness, pleasure, sighing, satisfaction, and surprise.

Yang Ling didn't hear Gao Wenxin's voice, and couldn't help but look at the prime minister, just in time to meet Yiren's eyes.

The eyebrows are like slender green willows locking a pool of spring water, the eyes are like a bright moon lying in the spring water, the eyes containing all kinds of emotions are so charming, looking at each other in pairs, fascinated for a while, the two of them suddenly returned to the Taihu Lake, the smoke and waves are vast, even the sky and lotus waves, looking at each other in pairs, heaven and earth are paused......

Yang Ling's gaze slowly moved to her full and soft lips, and she couldn't help but think of the ** kiss on the boat, Gao Wenxin seemed to be aware of it, pursed his lips, raised his eyes slightly, and secretly raised his eyebrows, hinting at Tan Lang, Yang Ling couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart.

Tang Yixian's laughter came from afar, waking up the pair of idiot stares, Yang Ling looked back, Tang Yixian covered his lips with his hands, and smiled and bent his eyes: "Big brother, Sister Wenxin, if you want to just look at it like this, I will accompany the young lady and sister to go to Wuzhongfang Embroidery Village for a walk and then come back, what do you think?" ”

For a while, not only Gao Wenxin's eyes were dizzy, his cheeks were red, but even Yang Ling felt that his face was hot, he glared at Tang Yixian, and then said to Gao Wenxin: "Let's go, let's go over."

Yang Ling raised his steps, looking at his tall back, Gao Wenxin suddenly said anxiously: "Husband, take care!" ”

Yang Ling's body was shocked, Gao Wenxin had already hurried past him, and walked towards Han Youniang's group without looking back.

Tang Yixian stepped forward, grabbed Gao Wenxin's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Wenxin, that scene is really touching!" ”

Gao Wenxin glanced at her, and finally couldn't help the sweetness in his heart, and couldn't help but smile again, the two held hands, and walked towards Han Youniang. Look at their figures, they are really as charming as fairies in the world riding the wind and clouds.

The spring breeze is blowing, the skirt is fluttering, Cheng Qiyun and Ma Li'er, two water-like women, accompanied by Yang Ling, one left and one right, holding the side of the boat and looking at the more and more distant figures on the shore, the green skirt is Yutangchun and the three, the red skirt is Gao Wenxin, and the purple Luo is Han Youniang's shadow gradually disappeared from sight, Yang Ling sighed, suddenly felt that the wind on the boat was strong, and hurriedly said to Ma Li'er: "Let's go, go into the cabin to rest, the wind in the bow and stern of this ship is not small, Mo has stood here for a long time and suffered the wind."

Yang Ling accompanied Ma Li'er into the inner cabin, peeled some dried fruits for her, chatted for a while to see that she was still comfortable on the boat, and asked her to rest before returning to the cabin. Cheng Qiyun sat down, sipping tea gently, Chu Ling obediently served another cup of tea to Lord Yang, and then quietly retreated.

Cheng Qiyun nodded sideways and said, "How are you going to arrange all the way?" ”

Yang Ling said without thinking: "What is all over the Central Plains, it's just a pretext, Jilu Xu Yang doesn't stop, sail with the wind, use the oar against the wind, and go to Jinling first at night."

Cheng Qiyun said anxiously: "Let's take a look at the situation first, the emperor has ordered to move the Sichuan capital to command Qiao An to enter Fujian, transfer the Shandong capital commander Li Sen to the Sichuan capital commander, and the Chengdu Wei commander has also changed, and see what the Shu Wangfu has done about it, and it's not too late to go." ”

Yang Ling said: "This is natural, the secret agents of the three factories and one guard have rushed to Chengdu Mansion respectively, Dai Yi, Miao Kui, and Mu Bin don't dare to perfunctory their requests to me, presumably they can also hear some news first."

Cheng Qiyun thought for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "This Liu Jin is really weird, his roots are in the inner court, as long as he firmly controls the inner court, the eight tigers join forces, it is enough to confront the adults, and no one in the court can shake it, but he gave up the three factories and one guard to the adults, and he has a grudge with Zhang Yong, but he wants to make friends with foreign ministers to control the government, this United Ministers will be in the wrong direction, and the future is real."

Yang Ling shook his head and said: "Don't underestimate the emperor's trust, Liu Jin is the most favored by the emperor among the eight tigers, as long as the holy family is not reduced, no one will want to bring him down, in fact, his plan is not stupid, if it weren't for the officials in the DPRK and China who he wanted to get together, there happened to be a son and nephew of the Xu family in Jiangnan, and the handle of the Xu family's smuggling on the sea is in the hands of this official, and at the same time, the Xu family has decided to cooperate with this official in order to make greater benefits after opening the sea, so I secretly told me, I really can't guess that this is his plan to divert the tiger from the mountain."

Cheng Qiyun smiled proudly, and said with her eyebrows fluttering: "This is called Jiren's own natural appearance." Let's take a plan, let the three factories and one guard, Jiao Ge Lao, the military department, the Ministry of Rites, the criminal department and others deliberately show weakness and obedience to him, first arrogant his soldiers, make him more arrogant, and when he makes a fuss, the adults will come to clean up the mess, and they will definitely bring him down in one fell swoop, hehehe."

Yang Ling glanced at her and said funny: "It's been a long time since I've seen you so happy, I found that you only laugh so proudly when you're a whole person."

"Uh", Cheng Qiyun laughed dryly, she glanced at Yang Ling with some annoyance and said, "What about praising me and hurting me?" cough, so adults think, will the so-called rebellion of the King of Shu be Liu Jin's bluff? ”

Yang Ling frowned, thought about it and shook his head lightly: "He wants to transfer me out of Beijing, and he doesn't dare to fabricate such news, not to mention that the notebook is indeed written by Fan Ting himself, I asked Dai Yi, he also heard about it at the beginning, it is said that someone paid a high price from the imperial kiln village outside Suzhou to buy a group of craftsmen to make hundreds of gold bricks privately, and the destination of the gold bricks is Sichuan Shu."

If you don't dream of being an emperor, what do you do to buy gold bricks at a high price and risk the risk of killing your head? The imperial kiln was supervised by the priest, there was such a big leak, they could not come up with conclusive evidence to prove that it was the king of Shu, and the first emperor was the most favored by the king of Shu at that time, and this group of people actually covered up the news, or Liu Jin sorted out the file of the priest and the eunuch, and found out about it."

Cheng Qiyun stretched out her slender jade fingers, tapped them lightly on the table a few times, and frowned: "The King of Shu has been a virtuous king for generations, is it really to recuperate and secretly resentful?" ”

The king of Shu is the eleventh son of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Taizu Gao, known as "Shu Xiucai" Zhu Chun, Zhu Chun was enshrined in Sichuan, developed agriculture, commerce, investment and education, consolidated border defense, since the Shu people live and work in peace and contentment, said to be rich and prosperous.

When King Yan was in trouble, Zhu Chun helped his brother Zhu Di again, asking for money and soldiers, although Zhu Di was cruel and suspicious, but he trusted and thanked this eleventh brother very much.

After Zhu Di became the emperor, he rewarded the eleventh brother the most, and the fief was several times that of other vassal kings, and the king of Shu has always been diligent in political affairs, loyal to the court, and repeatedly received the emperor's fief, and now six or seven out of ten of the land in Sichuan are all private fields of the Shu king's mansion, and there is no need to pay tribute to the imperial court.

Emperor Hongzhi praised King Shu Duoxian many times, and ordered that the royal family should be based on the family model formulated by Zhu Chun, the king of Shuxian, to educate future generations to be diligent and love the people.

Now the eighth generation of Shu King Zhu Binhan is on the throne, with two sons and a daughter, the son Zhu Rangxu, both father and son have good names, and there is never the slightest ambition. Yang Ling thought for a long time, and did not remember the deeds of the king of Shu who participated in the rebellion during the Zhengde period, thinking that even if the king of Shu had ambitions, he must not have really done anything big in history.

Yang Ling thought of this, and said to Cheng Qiyun: "Anyway, I can't go directly to Sichuan, this matter is not in a hurry, I will first go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to see the preparations for Tuntian, Pingwei, Kaihai and other things, and then go to Guangdong to see if those red-haired people have come all the way to send me cannons."

There is a delay during this period of time, after the secret operation of the military department, I believe that the main generals in the army in Sichuan and Shu have almost been replaced, and the secret investigation of the three factories and one guard should also have clues, and it is not too late for this official to enter Shu again. ”

Cheng Qiyun listened to the heart moved: the first stop of the adult is Jiangsu and Zhejiang, since he arrived in Jinling, he can no longer accompany him, go to Guangdong, and then return to Beijing through Sichuangui and Shaanxi and Jin, the best outcome of this life is to continue to stay in the inner factory, and always do his 'humble duty'.

How can there be any 'match made in heaven' in the world, even if they have intentions in each other's hearts, if no one takes the initiative to break it, if they can't take the initiative to fight for it, it won't pass by in the end?

"I", Cheng Qiyun suddenly felt that her heart was beating a little fast, and her throat was a little dry, she really wanted to blurt out her feelings to Yang Ling, but when she raised her head and saw Yang Ling, she suddenly remembered each other's identities and her unbearable past, and she didn't feel sad, she just silently picked up the tea and took a sip.

The tea was drunk in the mouth, and there was a faint bitterness.

At night, there was a chill on the ship, and most of the people on board had fallen asleep, except for the occasional soldier who walked back and forth.

On the deck, a beautiful woman with a lazy beauty in a bun, without a cloak, and without even a piece of armor, wandered silently. Luo Yi from the wind, the figure is swaying, and he refuses to sleep for a long time Yang Ling is playing the banner of inspecting the world on behalf of the Son of Heaven, but the road is very urgent, and he stops through Jilu and does not stop, in addition to taking rice, meat, vegetables and vegetables along the way, it is a night boat, which catches the officials of Jilu and Shandong who are ready to meet Qincha, Luo Shaohua, the prefect of Qingzhou, Shandong, rushed to Chuanyi, and wanted to play lawlessness to Liu Jin, the master of ceremonies of Qincha, and the people of Qingzhou have signs of civil revolt, but he did not expect Qincha's itinerary to be so hasty, and when he arrived at Yicheng Wharf, Qincha's official ship was already hundreds of miles away, Luo Zhifu only sighed and rushed back to Qingzhou.

The boat arrived in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, and Ma Li'er was unwell all the way, Yang Ling had to stay in Zhenjiang temporarily when she saw this situation, and invited a famous doctor in Zhenjiang to prescribe a few medicinal diets for her. After two days, Ma Li'er was bored for a while, and Yang Ling heard that Zhenjiang had many flowers and the landscape was also excellent, so he took Ma Li'er and Cheng Qiyun to visit Zhenjiang, and wanted to continue the journey in the second day.

Xiao Hongzhu, the prefect of Zhenjiang, is a person who tends to be hot, and he has traveled all the way, and has never rested at all, but he lived in his Zhenjiang Mansion for three days, and Xiao Hongzhu was so happy that he danced with his hands.

He heard that Lord Yang was going to visit Zhenjiang, and he didn't want to make a noise, so he set up a big boat in the local area, and sent someone as a guide to lead Yang Ling and others to play.

Yang Ling hired a sedan chair, carrying a horse to carry a child, the others walked up the mountain, all the way to the Jinshan Temple, this Jinshan Temple was built at the foot of the mountain, the incense has always been very prosperous, the temple is very solemn, the cymbals in the temple are dingdong, and the main hall is also set up with a Jiao altar.

Yang Ling saw that people came and went too noisy, so he led Li'er and Cheng Qiyun to the back of Jinshan Temple, where the Hope Sea Pavilion was built, and the Yangtze River was flooded, like silver practice across the sky, and the water and sky were connected. In the vast smoke waves, the sails are faint, the water is flying, and the birds are indistinguishable from a distance. On the left side of the temple, there is a fishing turtle rock, which is more lined with picturesque landscapes, and the refreshing spring breeze blows, which makes people feel refreshed.

Yang Ling is dressed as a rich son, Ma Li'er and Cheng Qiyun are as beautiful as flowers, Qiluo is dressed, like a young lady of a wealthy gentleman's family, handsome men and beautiful women, all of them are excellent characters. There are not many tourists here, but this one is even more eye-catching.

Yang Ling and Cheng Qiyun Ma Li'er were looking at the sea by the railing, and suddenly heard someone shouting: "How can this be reasonable, is this Wanghai Pavilion built by your family?" Shall I not go up? ”

Yang Ling looked back, only to see a scholar in a green robe who was about to ascend the Wanghai Pavilion, Wu Hanchao and others pretended to be a family member in a small hat in a green coat, scattered around, and when he saw that the scholar was about to go to the pavilion, he immediately flashed out a few, blocking his way.

Wu Hanchao looked up and down, and saw that the scholar was about forty, with a white complexion, some wrinkles on his face, and a little madness in the loneliness between his eyebrows, looking like a not very proud Luodi Xiucai, and holding a tube of white paper in his hand, so he smiled politely: "Son, please wait, the pavilion is not big, my son-in-law has brought a female dependent, and the son-in-law is a scholar, so he should know that there is some inconvenience."

The scholar saw two flower-like beauties from a distance, and floated up to Wanghai Pavilion, that every move, the seductive style revealed from his bones to his eyes all over the Jiangnan Ladies was rarely encountered, and he suddenly felt itchy and scratched, and hurried to take a closer look, if he didn't let him go to Wanghai Pavilion, how could he be willing to rest?

At that moment, the scholar sneered, straightened his waist and was about to take out his own fame and scold, but when he moved, his facial features were no longer blocked by Wu Hanchao, Yang Ling couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw his appearance, and hurriedly called: "Hanchao stop, hurry up and invite him over."

Yang Ling said that he couldn't help but lift his robe and walked down the Wanghai Pavilion to greet the man, and said with a smile: "Brother Bohu, it's really fate to come thousands of miles to get together, hehe, how did you get here?" ”

The scholar in the green shirt was stunned for a moment, looked at Yang Ling carefully, suddenly showed a look of surprise, and pointed at him and said, "You are Yang."

Yang Ling knew that he and Zhu Zhishan had a very close relationship, and they exchanged letters with each other, so he must have known his identity, so he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him, interrupted his words and said with a smile: "It's the little brother, hehe, Brother Bohu, please, the infinite scenery of Suzhou and Hangzhou is not enough to see, and Brother Tang still wants to come to Zhenjiang to enjoy the flowers?" ”

Tang Bohu laughed dryly and said, "Uh, it's really hard to say!" As he spoke, he looked at the pair of graceful people in the sea pavilion with a sinister eyebrow.

This guy specializes in painting the Spring Palace for a living, in addition to the bewitching limbs of the painting, the beauty is even more charming, quite appreciated by the rich gentry of the Jiangnan family. In fact, the appearance of the beauties in those paintings is not entirely made up by him, every woman with different charms has been seen by Tang Bohu with a pair of colored eyes, and the gesture and charm can always be remembered by him, and it can be used in the painting when painting the Spring Palace, so the beauties in his paintings have their own characteristics and are never repeated.

Tang Bohu is a student of Lord Wang Wei, but he was involved in the leak of exam questions in the past years, and was ordered by the emperor not to be hired as an official forever.

Now he saw his friend Zhu Zhishan as an official, and heard that Yang Ling was the first celebrity before the emperor, and the idea of being dead came alive again, if Yang Ling was willing to intercede for him, maybe the emperor would be willing to take back the punishment of the first emperor, so Tang Bohu packed up his bags and traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, painting to make money, and rushed all the way to the capital, wanting to meet his mentor Wang Wei, asking him to introduce, plus the relationship with Yang Ling, maybe Yang Ling was willing to help.

How dare he say that he saw Yang Ling's female relatives and their charm was different and moving, and he wanted to paint it in the Spring Palace and sell it for a good price, so he rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "The student was originally going to the capital to visit the adult, passing through Zhenjiang, looking at the sea here to entertain himself with a poem, and I was thinking of painting a picture of the sea in this pavilion, but I didn't expect to meet the adult, how did the adult come to the south of the Yangtze River?" ”

Yang Ling said: "I am inspecting the world by holy order, is there anything important for Brother Tang to see me in Beijing?" These are not in a hurry to talk, since they have met, they will drink and feast together, and it is not too late to talk in detail at that time. ”

He pointed to the white paper in Tang Bohu's hand and said, "This is the poem given by Brother Bohu?" ”

Tang Bohu's song "Peach Blossom Nunnery in Peach Blossom Dock" is famous for thousands of years, and the fairy spirit is elegant, although in the eyes of people at the time, Tang Bohu is nothing remarkable, but he has been modified by the literati of the past generation, in the eyes of Yang Ling, he is really a genius in the world, if he has any new works, he is the first person in the world to see, it is really a wonderful thing, so he can't wait to ask.

Tang Bohu smiled modestly: "Exactly! ”

The two entered the pavilion, Yang Ling introduced him to Cheng Qiyun and Ma Li'er, a pair of beautiful people looked at his peach blossom eyes, these two people have lived in Jiangnan for so long, they have heard of Tang Yin's name, and heard that this scholar in green shirts is actually the first talent in Jiangnan, and the two of them couldn't help but be silent.

Yang Ling couldn't wait to pass the paper in Tang Bohu's hand and slowly opened it. Tang Bohu smiled reservedly: "This is a poem that the student just gave at random, talking about it with self-deprecation, which makes the adults laugh."

Tang Dacaizi's poems, who dares to say badly? Ma Li'er and Cheng Qiyun also hurriedly came over to take a look, only to see that it was written: "I asked who you are?" For you were me, and I did not recognize you, but you will recognize me. Belch! I don't want you, but you don't have me. A hundred years after you and me, there will be no me without you. ”

Such a plain water tongue twister thing is also called poetry? It was actually made by the first genius in Jiangnan, Cheng Qiyun and Ma Li'er laughed out loud, but Yang Ling saw a lot of modern poetry, and he didn't think it was strange at all, but he was a little surprised that Tang Bohu's creativity could actually make a poem with the same charm as the vernacular poetry five hundred years later.

Cheng Qiyun and Ma Li'er laughed, thought about it for a while, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and the two of them savored it again, and actually felt that this seemingly simple and straightforward poem was actually an endless aftertaste, and the more they thought about it, the more flavorful it became, and the two of them no longer dared to underestimate it, and couldn't help but glance at Tang Bohu with admiration.

Yang Ling also felt that the artistic conception of this poem was wonderful, he suddenly remembered a modern poem, and thought that even if Tang Bohu had this innovation, after all, he was still an ancient, and he would not be able to accept the poems that were more straightforward than him, so he might as well make a joke of him, so he changed the poem to a few words, and said to Tang Bohu seriously: "There is no doubt that the poem you make is the best poem in the world." ”

Tang Bohu was already flattered when he saw that he knew the goods, and when he heard such a high evaluation, he happily shook it to the ground: "The adults have praised it falsely, but the students really dare not be."

Yang Ling asked with a smile, "What do you think of my poem?" ”

"Huh?" Tang Bohu was dumbfounded, and it took a long time for his tongue to smooth out and stammer: "Which poem?" Adults have written poems? Please recite it, and listen to it."
