Jiangning Mansion, which is now Nanjing, used to be an important place for "Six Generations of Luxury" and "Ten Dynasties of Gyeonggi". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

One of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Southern Tang Dynasty (937-975) built its capital in Jinling, called Jiangning Mansion, and built a city. During the Song Dynasty, this place was placed in Shengzhou, and in the Northern Song Dynasty, Jiangning Mansion was the capital of Jiangnan East Road.

Baitang is halfway from the east gate of Jiangning Mansion to Jiangshan, it was originally a low-lying waterlogged land, since Wang Anshi bought this land, he hired people to dig ponds to build houses, dig ditches to divert water, and pick up soil not only to fill in the low-lying land, but also to pad a small hill, and plant trees on the hill. Over the years, the trees have grown into thick bowls, the summer has become shady, and this late autumn is even more deciduous paving.

At the bottom of the hill, the king and others took their horses, and looked towards the hill and could faintly see a mansion.

"Lord, I'm going to explore the way!" Shi Qian volunteered to come forward to investigate first.

"No, it must be here!" Wang Bei's heart was very sure, this place reminded him of the former residence of Linchuan, the Yanbu Ridge in the southeast of the county seat in Linchuan, or his father liked to look at the place where he lived not far from Lincheng.

Four people and four horses stepped on a path covered with fallen leaves up the hill, and the thick leaves stepped on the feet like a carpet. There was only one house on the hill, and it was more of a three-room house than a house, because this house had no courtyard at all.

This saves trouble, and you don't even need to knock on the courtyard door to get to the front of the house. The king and the others tied up their horses and walked towards the house. It was quiet, with the occasional sound of birds flying from their deathbed.

The king stepped forward and tapped the door, but there was no answer. The door is open and gently opened, and the panoramic view of the house is impressive.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, and the shelves next to the wall are used for everyday use. There is also a table and a few chairs in the room, and a basin stand by the door. The wing room is not big, a cabinet and a bed, and a lamp is placed on the table next to the bed. There was also a bookcase on the wall, full of books.

Wang went back to the living room, and saw a towel on the basin shelf in the room, Wang next to him stepped forward and touched it, and there was still some moisture, it seemed that his father had used it. Since the door was not closed, my father must not have gone far.

Shi Qian came in from outside, holding the bun in his hand and gnawing on it: "Lord Wang, it seems that the old lady hasn't gone far, this bun is still hot." ”

Ma Sheng snatched the bun from his hand: "You know how to eat." With that, he put half of it in his mouth.

Seeing them like this, the king thought that when he was about to arrive at Jiangning Mansion, he was busy on the road, and several people didn't eat lunch. "Let's go get something to eat."

"Lord Wang, we've finished eating the dry food we brought on the road." Shi Qian said: "I thought that the old lady came here to have delicious food, but I didn't expect that this was even more shabby than your Meyer Mansion." I found such a bun in the kitchen after looking for a long time, and by the way, there are some pickles, Ma Sheng, don't you eat it? ”

Wang Fang took out a tael of silver from his arms: "You go to Jiangning Mansion City, these are enough for you to eat and drink." Also buy some rice and noodle dishes to come back. ”

He threw the silver to Shi Qian, who immediately smiled: "Brother Hu, Ma Sheng, I'm in for a treat!" ”

Wang Ben walked out with them, and watched the three men leave, and Wang Beng himself walked around the hill. Although the house is simple, the surrounding environment is very good, the scenery is beautiful and there are some small animals in the forest. The king smiled secretly, just filling in the depression and planting trees would cost a lot of silver. The money is spent on environmental protection!

There was a fluttering sound on the south side of the hill, not like the sound of a pheasant rabbit. The king walked over and saw a woodcutter chopping wood: "This big brother, do you know where the owner of this house has gone?" ”

The woodcutter straightened his waist and looked at the king's side: "Are you looking for the prince of the king?!" You go to Xie Gongdun to see, from this north is the former residence of Xie An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Wang Xianggong often goes there to rest. Or the Dinglin Temple in the south, where Wang Xianggong has a study. Wait, wait, I seem to see him go west, the Baogong Pagoda over there. If you can't find it, go to Sun Quan's tomb in the east, maybe he will feel Jiangdong there. ”

When the king heard this, he was happy: "Haha, this benevolent brother, you have pointed out all the east, south, north, west, and northwest, and the house on this hill is a disguise." Study, bedroom, and observation deck are all around. No wonder this mound has no walls, it's just a big garden. ”

The woodcutter himself smiled: "You're really right! You're from the capital, right? Go, I'll take you to his quarters! ”

As he spoke, he bundled the freshly chopped firewood and carried it on his back, striding towards Wang Anshi's house on the hill.

Wang Fang felt that this woodcutter was a little interesting, looking at his age and his own relative, but his speech was not vulgar, the biggest advantage of the Song Dynasty was that everyone had books to read, whether it was a woodcutter farmer or an artist in a handicraft workshop. Seeing that he was familiar with himself, the king followed him and asked, "What?" Have there been a lot of people coming to the capital lately? ”

"Many! Not only in the capital, but also everywhere. It wasn't like this before, I heard that it was the son of the prince who was the prince again, and I thought it was dead. These people have all come to see the prince again, do you know what it is called? This is why the poor are not asked on the side of the street, and the rich have distant relatives. ”

After he finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much, turned his head to look at Wang and smiled. "Childe, don't mind, I didn't say anything about you. You're different from those people......"

"I have three heads and six arms?"

"That's not it, but seeing that you are so sincere in looking for Wang Xianggong, you don't see those people, some of them come and look at them and shake their heads and sigh, and some of them refuse to sit for a while. Even if the prince sees these people, he will politely send them away. ”

The king didn't say anything, the woodcutter put the firewood into the kitchen, boiled a pot of water on the stove in the palace, scooped it out into a copper kettle, and then carried the copper kettle to the room as if he had entered his own house: "This son, if you don't like this simplicity, drink some hot water!" ”

"There is labor!" Wang Bei smiled.

After the woodcutter was busy, he picked up the coarse cloth hand towel on the basin rack, washed it in the basin, wiped the sweat on his head, and put it back on the basin rack. Wang Fang thought to himself, could it be that he had misjudged that the hand towel was a tide and that he used it?

After wiping his sweat, the woodcutter poured himself a glass of water and sat down, and accosted the king and said, "Childe, are you here alone?" ”

"Oh, I still have an entourage, go to the city and buy some food."

"Yes, that's right, look at this prince, there is nothing in the kitchen, I want to know that I brought it to him when I came. This is not? As soon as I saw a steamed bun, I thought that the evening was about to end, and I didn't know that stinky boy had come here, and even the bun was gone......"

There were only two people in the room, him and the king, and it seemed a little inappropriate to say this: "Look at me, I didn't mean you, son!" ”

Wang Bei shook his head and smiled: "The bun was eaten by my entourage, and we were busy on the road, so a few of them were hungry." What do you call Brother Ren? If you don't mind, how about we use it together when my entourage comes back with food? ”

"This, how embarrassing! Haha, then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, under the surname Chao, the second in line, everyone calls me Chao Er. ”

"I don't know who Brother Chao is?"

This person is a bit of a two, just heard his surname Chao, the king was startled, I'm really afraid that such a second person is Chao Gai. However, Chao Gai is from Yuncheng County, and that place is far away from here in Shandong.

"Hey, whoever it is, it's all passers-by. Passers-by have become friends for a long time. I often come to fetch firewood, and the prince subsidizes me, and by the way, let me watch the mountains and forests. At that time, there was an old mother in the family, and with the prince, this subsidy was finally sent to the end of the old mother. Now that I am alone at home, I have nothing to do except help the prince look at the woods. ”

"I just heard Brother Chao say that I am going to eat that bun for dinner, what will the prince eat when he comes back?"

"He?! He doesn't come back at night! ”

"Not coming back?"

"Yes! He read books in Dinglin Temple, stayed in Xie Gongdun, three caves of cunning rabbits, this prince is five or six caves. ”

Wang Bei thought that it would be better to let him take him, and just as he was about to open his mouth, he suddenly heard a voice outside the door: "Haha, who is comparing me to a rabbit?" ”

Before the words fell, Wang Anshi appeared outside the door. The king hurriedly stood up, and the people who entered the door were also stunned. The man had gray hair, a white beard on his forehead, a cane in his hand, and a somewhat old figure.

"Daddy!" The king came forward beside him.

Burst! Chao Er had just drunk a mouthful of water in his mouth and suddenly squirted out. It's been a long time, and I haven't even asked who the person who came.

"Side?" Wang Anshi squinted and looked at the king's side. His hand trembled and he took the king by the side, looking up and down, left and right.

"Chao Er, hurry up and help me hold the lamp!"

At ten o'clock in the evening, the light in the room was a little dim, so Chao Er hurriedly lit the lamp. Wang Anshi's excited lips trembled, and he burst into tears for a while.

Fourteen years, for Wang Bi, the loss of time is impossible to quantify, even before leaving the capital, knowing that some people have died, he is just a sigh. But at this moment, the old father was in front of him. It doesn't feel like seeing old subordinates, and the king can talk and laugh; It's not like seeing Wang Shi, Wang can be excited; It's not like seeing Su Xiaomei, Wang Bei must be like a man going home.

At this moment, he can no longer suppress it, the boy does not flick when he has tears, but he will always be a child in front of his parents, and he can cry unscrupulously. Wang couldn't help but bend his knees and kneel in front of Wang Anshi, this kneeling is the instinct of this body's nature, but also a kind of guilt, if he doesn't disappear for fourteen years, if he is more cautious back then, if he is not credulous The so-called king does not live up to the king, the king does not live up to the king. If......

Too many ifs, no matter what, if you work harder, at least you won't let your father go through so many hardships and bear the charge of history. At this moment, the king was distressed and remorseful, and all the feelings since he came back came to his heart.

The father and son hugged their heads and cried, crying about their own experiences, and even crying about their lost relatives Wang Yuanze.

The man's crying was extremely contagious, Chao Er wiped his tears and explained: "It's not easy for your father and son to reunite, this is a great joy, okay." ”

Wang Anshi helped Wang Bian to stand up, and Wang Bian helped Wang Anshi to sit down: "Dad, I was just trying to ask Chao Er to take me to you, and you came back." ”

"Yes, Old Man Wang, why did you come back suddenly?"

Wang Anshi said: "I just heard that now the entire Jiangning Mansion has been dispatched up and down to clean up the roads in the city, saying that it is necessary to clean up the water and splash the loess on the streets, and it is also said that there will be a curfew to strengthen the vigilance. I wondered about this, this movement is not for ordinary people to come. I thought about coming back and packing up my things and going out for a few days. ”

When the king heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, Chao Er said with a sigh: "It's bad, Childe, the entourage you went to buy food hasn't come back yet, and you won't be able to get out of the city gate if you have to catch up with it." ”
