Chapter 63: Cai Jiu

'Ask Dongming about the wine, where does the tide come from? Rather than a day, the long month by month profit. Angry Mid-Autumn Festival, heroic in the middle of the night. The dignified clouds are combined, and the snow-capped mountains are walking. The sea is thunderous, and the waterfall in the heart of the river is horizontal. Huge anti-earthquake, the group looks forward to the wind. Like a dragon fighting, rushing like rain and hail. Come to know the ancient letters, and return to see Baichuanping. The power of breaking the waves is invincible, and the power of driving the mountains can be combined. Wu Xu is not stubborn, and he is famous with this. Fan Zhongyan's poem exhausted the majesty of the tide of the Qianjiang River.

Today is August 18, the best tide watching day in Qiantang. From the head of the temple to the Liuhe Tower, the riverside that stretches for more than 30 miles, is covered with the colorful sheds and curtains that are tied up for watching the tide, and even a free place to sit can not be found, and watching the tide has become an organized, large-scale, and indispensable folk conscious entertainment activity for the people of Hangzhou.

Zhao Ta sat in the color shed, looking out with his eyes, in the direction of Haimen, a tide like a silver line, connecting the sky, like ten thousand white horses running in the clouds. People watch the tide from afar like a thousand jade exercises flying into the sky, and listen to the noise of thousands of armies and tigers from afar, the silver waves can be fertile to the sun, and the snow waves can swallow the sky, and quickly rush to people. The tide head is just like the snow ridge of the jade city, the sound is like spring thunder rolling, thousands of layers of blue waves are rolling everywhere, the tide heads collide, and it is unstoppable.

"It's so imposing, it's so spectacular" Looking at the tide head like an eight- or nine-meter-high 'cliff' pushing forward with a thunderous roar, Zhao Ta couldn't help but applaud and was very excited.

"Yes, the first time Xia Guan saw this tide, it was many years ago, I was really ashamed, I was so frightened that my legs and feet were weak, and I couldn't move my steps for a long time, but I was not as calm as the prince" Cai Jun, the prefect of Hangzhou, helped Zhao Ta sit down, and diligently peeled an orange and sent it to him.

"Brother Cai is polite" Zhao Ta nodded and took the orange, tore off a petal and put it in his mouth and said, this kid has really inherited Lao Cai's good DNA, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, slapping the horse is simply self-taught, what a good billet to be a traitor.

This Cai Jun is the son of Cai Jing, the ninth among the brothers in their life, and everyone calls him Cai Jiu. This kid has a good brain, and he is also clever, and he looks very much like the style of Lao Cai when he was young, and he has been in the Jinshi (not excluding his father operating in it), and has been mixed in Shangshu Province for a few years, and has been 'praised' by the superior leaders, and he has just arrived in Hangzhou as a prefect, which is equivalent to a senior cadre at the prefectural level. Hangzhou Mansion is Cai Jing's hometown, and several times he has returned here to retire, and letting Cai Jiu serve as the prefect can be regarded as guarding the last line of defense

Saddam, Gaddafi and other tyrants like Saddam Hussein did this, reusing and promoting the people in their hometowns, doing a good job in welfare, and repairing better than the capital, as their own base, that is, when Lao Cai was not developed, he had just reached the deputy department level, and he repaired the seawall several times in his hometown, but Cai Jiu, this kid didn't think so, and played with a mouse carrying a gun - the nest was horizontal, and he brought the set he learned in the capital back to his hometown to practice it again. As soon as the villagers mentioned Cai Jiu, they all raised their middle fingers in unison.

"This Wu Zixu is full of temper, it has been a thousand years, and he can still set off such a big storm," Zhao Xin said as he watched the angry waves crashing on the shore.

"Hehe, it's just ghosts and ghosts, how can anyone in the world have such the power to move mountains and reclaim the sea, let alone a dead person, Wu Zixu's tide is just everyone's love for loyal and righteous people, and his death is just retribution" Zhao Ta said with a smile.

"Yes, the prince sees that they are all fools and ghosts, so they make a living" Cai Jiumei smiled and brought a cup of tea to let the prince rinse his mouth and said, "Lord, you see, those tides are flying in the water, if there are ghosts and gods, they will be taken away long ago."

Zhao Ta looked in the direction of Cai Jiu's fingers, only to see that there were hundreds of people on the tide, all of them were scattered, they rushed up by the overwhelming, fast and fierce tide, the bigger the tide, the more they made the tide happy, they used their hands for a while, or tread water with their feet, walking through the monstrous giants, holding big flags or small flags, and holding red and green umbrellas with their feet for a while, floating on the tide surface, taking off and changing. There are tide makers, using both hands and feet, holding five small flags to float the tide and tease... Its speed, its strength, its courage, its thrill, are all better than the surfing of the modern world with empty hands...,

"Governor Cai, this is very dangerous, why doesn't the government stop it?" Zhao Ta exclaimed, modern society watches the tide every year, and every year the government has to dispatch personnel to pull a cordon to persuade people in dangerous areas to leave, but even so, there are often reports of dead people.

"Lord Wang, every year at this time in the past, we will also send people to prohibit the tide, isn't it the Lord Wang Ye this year, thinking that our small place has nothing worth watching the Lord Wang, so I let it go, and let these small people have fun with the Lord Wang" Cai Jiu explained with a smile.

"Wouldn't it be a big disaster if there was an accident, and I asked Governor Cai to order someone to let them go ashore" Zhao Ta couldn't help but say angrily, this Cai Jiu is really strong, in order to win a smile on himself, he actually spared his life and let those tides take risks.

"Yes, yes, what the prince said is that the lower officials will immediately order someone to recruit them back" Cai Jiu pouted and said, in his heart, Lao Tzu let them go into the water in order to make you happy, but you *** but pretended to be serious, it was really a dog biting Lu Dongbin didn't know the hearts of good people, Cai Jiu slandered or ordered someone to go to the embankment to recruit people ashore.

The spectacular tide soon disappeared from view, Zhao Ta and Cai Jiu went home, after arriving in Hangzhou, Cai Jiu arranged Zhao Ta in his own Phoenix Mountain manor, from this point of view it is more hospitable than Zhu Mian's kid, after he came, Cai Jiu also went back to live in the manor, serving tea and water is very attentive, making Zhao Ta very embarrassed, and he was very distressed when he was not good for a while

In the past, every time he went out, Cai Jiu would go in and out with the prince, but today the prince regarded his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, which made him very unhappy, and the two parted ways when they reached the fork in the road, one went back to the official office, and the other went to the West Lake to find the white lady and taste the vinegar fish in the West Lake...

"Cai Hu let people kill" Zhao Ta sat down in the restaurant, after tasting Longjing, the vinegar fish had not yet been served, just when it came to the drizzle, Xu Xian opened the umbrella to cover the white lady from the rain, and heard a person suddenly running up to the restaurant shouting.

"Who is Cai Hu?" Zhao Ta watched people running to tell each other, his eyebrows were overjoyed, and he asked Xiao Er curiously.

"The guest officer is from out of town, Cai Hu is Cai Jiu, the prefect of Benzhou, the son of Cai Xiang," Xiao Er said quickly.

"What?" Zhao Ta was shocked, and he didn't believe it, he and Cai Jiu had only been breaking up for half an hour, how could he be killed?

"Yes, it has spread all over the city now, and when he arrived at the gate of the mansion, a righteous man suddenly stepped forward and stabbed Cai Hu a few times..."

"Lord, lord, what should I do?" Huang Jingchen looked at the prince in a daze, shook him and asked.

"Go to the government office immediately and check the situation" Zhao Ta was in no mood at this time, he just wanted to know whether Cai Jiu was dead or alive, his brain was running fast, analyzing the possible situation, this thing was too strange, he had just broken up with him, and he was assassinated, was it accidental, did he come to himself, or did he want to frame himself...

"Lord Wang, things are not clear yet, do you want to slow down, let's take a look at the situation first?" Huang Jingchen stopped the prince and said.

"No, Cai Jiu was assassinated, and he had to go both public and private" Zhao Ta waved his hand to refuse, now that the prefect was assassinated, it was the day of the tide, the city had a large population, and the news spread quickly, he was worried that someone would take the opportunity to make trouble.

"If you want to live a long time, don't talk nonsense" Zhao Xin threw Xiao Er's broken silver, glared at him and said, turned around and followed the prince downstairs.

"My mother, Lord Wang, this is the 'Lord of Yama'" Xiao Er watched a group of people downstairs surround the young man who was talking and laughing just now and rode away, only then did he exhale and exclaimed, there was a feeling of escaping death, but he couldn't connect the legendary blue-faced and fanged prince with this handsome young man.

Before Zhao Ta and the others arrived at the place, they saw countless people who had received the news gathered in front of the government office, and government soldiers had already arrived to drive away the crowd. He can't care much now, ordered the guards to rush forward, and squeezed a way out of the crowd to come to the front of the government, the ground was a mess, throwing the prefect's travel honor guard and weapons, as well as a pool of blood, the officials gathered in a circle to prevent the personnel from approaching, Zhao Xin and others were even more nervous, and the group surrounded the prince in the middle, now the situation is unknown, who knows if the assassin is just this one, or there are accomplices, now there are so many people, and they can't distinguish clearly for a while.

"How is Governor Cai, have the assassins been caught?". Zhao Ta came to the front of the government office with his identity clear, and without waiting for the officials to ask, he pulled a person over and asked.

"Lord Yu, Governor Cai is being treated, and the assassin has been captured," the official hurriedly replied.

Zhao Ta stopped talking nonsense, and led people into the mansion gate, the hall of the government is now an ambulance, more than a dozen officers and soldiers grinned and hummed, several doctors were busy bandaging their wounds, and there were three or four lying on the side, with a piece of clothing on their faces, it is estimated that they were killed in battle.

A subordinate official saw the arrival of the prince and led him to the side hall, a group of people were busy working around a person, no need to ask if it was Cai Jiu, Zhao Ta came to the front and took a look, and knew that this kid was hopeless, the assassin stabbed him several times, the most powerful one was pierced in his neck, it is estimated that it injured the carotid artery, with the medical conditions of the current era, no blood transfusion, no vascular anastomosis, he can't last long......,
