Chapter 763: This Peace of Mind is My Hometown
@@@@@
After resting for a few days, Yang Yi and his entourage set off from Hangzhou again, passing through Lushan, crossing Dongting, visiting Yueyanglou, and when they arrived in Tanzhou, Qing Niang refused to go, and insisted that Yang Yi go to Yuelu Mountain on the west bank of the Xiangjiang River.
In the ninth year of Song Taizu Kaibao (976 AD), Tanzhou Taishou Zhudong formally founded Yuelu Academy on the basis of monks' schooling, and more than 100 years have passed, Yuelu Academy has become one of the four major academies of the Great Song Dynasty. The four characters of 'Yuelu Academy' on the gate are handwritten by Emperor Zhenzong.
However, at this time, Yuelu Academy had not yet reached its heyday, and there was no rather conceited couplet at the door: only Chu is talented, and Yu Si is prosperous.
The famous Aiwan Pavilion is not yet there, Yang Yi is very generous this time, donating 5,000 yuan to build a pavilion in Qingfeng Gorge at the foot of Yuelu Mountain, well, it is called 'Aiwan Pavilion'.
Mrs. Yang also asked Qing Niang to handwrite Du Mu's "Mountain Walk": Far up the cold mountain stone path slopes, there are people in the depths of the white clouds. Parking sits in love with the maple forest in the evening, and the frost leaves are red in February. Above board: Good Night. Carved into a poem tablet, stand in front of the pavilion. Mrs. Yang planted three maple trees in front of the pavilion with her own hands.
This can be regarded as leaving a monument for future generations, a good story. Although Qing Niang's words are not everyone's handwriting, but they are finally beautiful and beautiful, how the words are written is not the point, the key is her reputation as the first talented woman, and she is left in a poem monument here, which always leads future generations to think about it.
No matter what, you have to let Tang Bohu chase the autumn fragrance, there is "love the maple leaves on the evening pavilion" can be a hidden poem.
Yang Yi stayed in Tanzhou (Changsha) for a few days, mainly to inspect the farming and education here, in terms of commerce, the area of Tanzhou is still relatively backward, but a few years ago the imperial court relocated millions of people to Jinghu, of which the main resettlement point is the area from Yueyang to Tanzhou;
When the people were relocated to Jinghu, the imperial court spent a lot of money, and now it is finally beginning to pay off. The land in this area is fertile and the water system is well developed, which is conducive to farming. The Champa rice planted is harvested twice a year;
After several years of development. The Jinghu area has undergone great changes, and it has the potential to become another granary of the Great Song Dynasty, and the grain output has directly caught up with Suhu. Maybe in another ten years, Suhu will become Jinghu and Jinghu.
Of course, there are still a lot of problems, but on the whole, it is developing on a good side, Yang Yi once again put pen to paper, and sprinkled a thousand words to the imperial court. The problems existing in Jinghu and his own rectification opinions were sent back to Tokyo. This may also be the last time he will give a concert to the court on this trip.
From Tanzhou to the south, all the way is in full swing road repair scene, the imperial court developed Lingnan one port and two roads, a longitudinal straight road is from Tanzhou in the north, south to Qinzhou. The middle communicates Hengyang, Guizhou, Liuzhou, and Yongzhou.
Because the imperial court invests less than 20 million yuan every year, the project has not yet been completed, and the longitudinal straight road is only built through the section from Qinzhou to Guizhou (Guilin), and the section from Guizhou to Tanzhou is still under construction.
Half of the labor used was the cochin captives, and half was to hire the people along the way. At the same time, many sections of the road were contracted to be built by merchants.
Yang Yi traveled south this time, and he had to check the quality of the project.
When he was about to arrive in Hengyang, the accompanying Qing Niang, Adella, and the eldest princess of the Qin Kingdom, You Xing had been greatly reduced, after all, this side was not as prosperous as Jiangnan. The transportation is not so convenient. Sometimes it takes twenty or thirty miles to see people.
On this day, I stayed at Hengshan Station, and the post house was quite simple. A row of low tiled houses, two old post men basking in the sun at the foot of the wall, the room has not been cleaned for at least half a month, and the tables and chairs are full of dust.
Hearing that when the imperial master arrived, the two post guards were so frightened that their feet were weak, and they crawled out to greet them, and then climbed in to clean them, so that Yang Yi didn't see what they looked like from beginning to end.
What can be taken out of the post house is all some coarse tea and light rice, fortunately, Xiaobai went to hunt a yellow dog in the afternoon, and finally had some meat to eat.
Yang Yi felt a little ashamed of the three daughters of Qing Niang, and said during the meal: "Qing Niang, Ying'er, Adella, this is good, you can return to Jiangnan from now on, wait for me in Hangzhou, and then pick you up and go back to Beijing when I return." ”
The three girls didn't expect him to say this suddenly, and glanced at each other, but in the end, it was Adella who chanted in a tone with a Western Regions accent: "Chang envy the jade lang in the world, and the heavenly sect will pay some crisp girls." The wind rises, and the snow flies and the sea becomes cool. The return of thousands of miles is getting younger and younger, smiling, always with the fragrance of Ling Mei. Should Lingnan be bad? But he said: This place of peace is my hometown. ”
Adella recited a poem "Fixing the Storm" written by Su Dongpo, which has a rather touching allusion, Su Dongpo implicated some relatives and friends because of the "Wutai Poetry Case", and these people were deposed together. Among them, Wang Gong, the grandson of the famous scholar Wang Dan, was demoted to Pennsylvania in Lingnan;
When Wang Gong decided the case, the singers in the family dispersed, one of the courtesans was called Yuwen Rounu, but he was willing to follow Wang Gong all the way to degrade the wilderness, accompanied by the left and right to taste the hardships, and was able to return to Beijing after five years.
When old friends saw each other, Su Shi asked Wang Gong's singer Yuwen Rounu out of courtesy: "Guangnan terroir, should it be bad?" ”
This is purely an overstatement, because at that time, in the eyes of all scholars, Lingnan was a wild land, with poor mountains and bad waters, and it was a consensus that it was not good.
However, Yuwen Rounu replied indifferently: "This place of peace is my hometown." ”
Su Dongpo didn't expect such a weak woman to blurt out such open-minded words, and couldn't help but praise Rou Nu a lot, and immediately filled in this song "Fixing the Storm".
At this moment, the three of Adella didn't say anything else, only chanted these words, Yang Yi was also quite moved, and gave each of them a piece of yellow lewd meat, and said in a loud voice: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, tomorrow I will let the guards go to the front to start the first station, make some arrangements in advance, and don't let you suffer like this, today is my inconsiderate thinking, and I should be punished with three glasses of wine." ”
Qing Niang's movements were light, and she snatched the wine jug and hummed: "In Brother Yang's heart, it's just a matter of seeing that the three of me are not as good as a courtesan, you don't have any sincerity in this review, what is the self-punishment of three cups, this wine is the wine we brought from Jiangnan, people still want to drink it, your self-punishment is fake, it is true that you want to swallow the wine alone, when people don't know?" ”
Yang Yi held an empty cup, looking embarrassed, and held back for a long time before he said: "Qingniang, you are naughty again." ”
"Hee-hee, they learned it from Sister Qing'er."
"Don't learn from her, she's a witch."
"Hee-hee-ha, Brother Yang is not allowed to pass the test, you have to compose a poem before you can count."
"Yes, yes, do it quickly." The eldest princess of the Qin Kingdom and Adella also followed suit, looking at him with smiles and smiles. Well. Or maybe it's more appropriate to keep an eye on him.
Mrs. Yang waved his sleeves and said proudly: "What's so difficult about this, poetry is just a small skill for me!" Pen and ink waiting! ”
Qing Niang didn't say a word, immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, and ran to grind the ink, Mrs. Yang pretended to pace in the courtyard, sometimes looking up at the moon. From time to time, I bow my head and think deeply, to be precise, I look down to find ants, isn't it just a poem, can I use it to think deeply?
Waiting for Qing Niang to polish the ink, he happily splashed the ink, and wrote a poem "Tasha Xing" with a pen and a snake:
Fog lost the floor. The moon is maze, and the peach source is nowhere to be found.
It can be closed in the lonely hall in the cold spring, and the sun is twilight in the sound of the cuckoo.
Post plum blossoms, fish pass ruler element, build this hatred without repetition.
Chenjiang is fortunate to go around Chenshan, for whom does Xiaoxiang go?
After reading this word, the three of Qing Niang couldn't help but applaud continuously, and Mrs. Yang took advantage of the three of them to gather around their pen and ink appreciation. I took the flask in a good time. I consciously "punished" myself with three cups.
Well, that Qin Shaoyou. Now he is working in the grain yard, because of his appearance, he has not been degraded to Chenzhou, if he doesn't get it out, this word will never come out, in this case, Mrs. Yang used this word to exchange three glasses of wine can be said to be at ease.
"Ah, Brother Yang is the worst, he steals wine while others are not paying attention." Qing Niang finally found out about someone's contempt, and immediately screamed.
"Don't rob, don't rob, Qing Niang, don't be naughty!"
"But you're almost done with a jug of wine."
"But isn't it unfinished?"
"But if people don't say it, you'll be finished."
"But you said it."
"Hee-hee" Qing Niang finally couldn't go down, and fell softly on his knees, with a pretty face and dew, a rhyme of water cage smoke, pouring out three thousand brushes and ink, and couldn't write the intoxicating beauty.
Qing Niang grew up with Yang Yi since she was a child, and it is not too much to say that she is a childhood sweetheart, she laughs in front of Yang Yi, even if she is coquettish and disgusting, it is always so natural, without any artificiality, and the natural and intimate feeling makes Princess Qin and Adele a little envious.
"Don't look at it, hurry up and sit down and continue to eat, eat more, this Lingnan road is difficult, you have to save some strength." Yang Yi slapped Qing Niang's pretty buttocks, and then urged Zhao Qian and Adella.
A few people finished dinner in the evening breeze, and four people slept in the same room at night, no way, this post station has three tile houses, and the post guards and guards add up to a large number of people, accounting for two rooms and squeezing, leaving one, Mrs. Yang had to "reluctantly" squeeze with the three daughters of Qing Niang.
How "embarrassing" Mrs. Yang is, it is really not enough for outsiders!
Yang Yi said that the Lingnan road is difficult, this back to say wrong, after entering Guangxi Quanzhou, the newly built straight road is spacious and flat, equipped with shock absorbers of cars and horses galloping on it, do not feel how bumpy, plus close to Guizhou, the green peaks on both sides of the road are like Dai, strange and strange, dizzying.
After arriving in Guizhou, Yang Yi took the three of them to take a boat on the Li River to enjoy Elephant Trunk Mountain and Hump Mountain.
"Sing mountain songs, sing here and there, and there and that, mountain songs are like spring river water, not afraid of beach dangers, bends and bends"
Mrs. Yang sang a song of mountain songs among the green mountains and green waters, and the three of them were stunned.
Mrs. Yang continued: "What kind of somersault on the water? Hey, what's the water surface of the sky? Hey, what is the parasol on the water, hey, what is the white head on the water."
It's a pity that Mrs. Yang is high and widowed, and the three daughters of Qing Niang can't sing to each other, after he taught N times, Adella dared to open her mouth first, and this tone brought an alternative flavor of the Western Regions: "Ducks play somersaults on the water, and the big boat rises on the water."
