Chapter 108: Unstoppable
Thinking like this, Qiuqiu got up from the cabin and walked towards the bow of the boat. The evening breeze blew the broken hair on Qiuqiu's forehead, she stood on the recess at the bow of the boat, and in the cabin was the voice of Zhang Yunhua and Su Mengtang talking, Qiuqiu looked around a little, and saw that the ship was not far from the shore, and the shore was brightly lit, but the lake was dark.
The small lanterns hanging on the canopy have already dissipated in the dark night breeze before they can illuminate the lake, leaving only bright reflections, sticking to the water surface, and the water waves move into a trance. Whose reflection am I here? Where is the real Qiuqiu now? Thinking like this, Qiuqiu unconsciously stepped onto the side of the ship.
"Xiaoqiu, it's cold outside, let's go in." A warm voice suddenly came from behind Qiuqiu. "I'm not cold, Master." Qiuqiu was startled by this voice, and when she came back to her senses, she turned her head to look, but it was Zhao Qingzhou standing behind her. "Come on." Zhao Qingzhou stretched out a hand to Qiuqiu and pulled her off the side of the boat.
Qiuqiu jumped off the side of the boat, sat on the bow of the boat, and said, "I want to sit here for a while, Uncle Zhao, you can go in first." Zhao Qingzhou looked down at Qiuqiu, who was sitting alone with his arms crossed, and a feeling of pity rose in his heart, so he sat down beside her and asked, "Does Xiaoqiu have anything on his mind?" ”
"No, I just want to sit alone for a while." Qiuqiu looked at Zhao Qingzhou steadily, and shook her head again, I don't know why, the night boating made her feel a lot in her heart, which made her feel very homesick, and even for a moment, she wanted to tell Zhao Qingzhou all her secrets, but she couldn't help but hold back, and the secret she held back made her can't help but want to cry: Why do you have to go through such a thing?
Zhao Qingzhou flicked his wide sleeves in the night breeze and hugged Qiuqiu, who was crying. He pointed to some light in the distance, and said softly: "Xiaoqiu, look, there is Leifeng Tower, do you know the allusion to this tower?" "I know, it was the monk Fahai who tricked Xu Xian into the tower, and then the White Lady and Xiao Qingshui flooded the Golden Mountain and rescued Xu Xian, but she was suppressed under the Leifeng Tower, and later she ......"
Qiuqiu said while recalling the plot of the TV series, listening to Cheongju dumbfounded, as if he was listening to a strange news in the world. Qiuqiu looked up and saw Zhao Qingzhou's expression, and suddenly chuckled in her heart: It's over, has this story not appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty? Sure enough, if you say too much, you will lose!
She hurriedly covered up: "Uncle Cheongju, this is what I saw from a book, I don't know if this allusion is right." Zhao Qingzhou laughed twice, patted Qiuqiu's shoulder and said: "What Xiaoqiu told is probably the story that today's people made up with Leifeng Pagoda, I'll tell Xiaoqiu about the allusion of Leifeng Pagoda, okay?" ”
Qiuqiu looked at Zhang Yunhua and Su Mengtang who were talking in the cabin, and knew that Qingzhou was probably afraid of disturbing the conversation between the two of them in this beautiful scenery, so he hid out to tell a story to himself, so he raised his head and said with a smile: "Okay! "Uncle Zhao will first test Xiaoqiu, does Qiuqiu know about grandpa?"
"Oh, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, I know." Qiuqiu recalled the history textbook of junior high school: "He was embraced as the Son of Heaven in the Chenqiao Mutiny and the Yellow Robe, and later released the military power ...... with a glass of wine" Before he finished speaking, he was covered up by Zhao Qingzhou: "Xiaoqiu, these words, you can't talk nonsense in the future, if you say it, you will be disrespectful to your grandfather, and it may lead to death, understand?" Zhao Qingzhou lowered his voice and said to Qiuqiu.
Qiuqiu felt her heart pounding, and blamed herself in her heart: she almost made a big mistake without holding her back. Qingzhou saw the fear in Qiuqiu's eyes, and thought that he had scared the child, so he hurriedly put his hand down and said softly: "Xiaoqiu, don't be afraid, there are some things that can be understood." Qiuqiu nodded, diverted the topic and asked, "So, is the allusion that Uncle Qingzhou wants to tell related to our great grandfather of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”
Cheongju said: "No, it just happened to happen during that period. When Grandpa Tai fought the world, Lin'an City was still under the jurisdiction of Wu Yueguo, and the monarch of Wu Yueguo was Qian Shu. This person is both wise and brave, has both ability and political integrity, once Taizu pacified the south of the Yangtze River when he offered advice, helped Taizu crusade against the Southern Tang Dynasty lord Li Yu, and offered two Jin Dynasty and thirteen states to the Song Dynasty, so after entering the dynasty, Taizu still allowed him to be the king of Huaihai and stay in the Lin'an area. ”
Qiuqiu's chest was stuffy, and he couldn't get angry: it turned out that this person was the culprit who helped Song Dynasty destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty and killed his favorite lyricist Li Yu! Thinking like this, Qiuqiu suddenly didn't have a good impression of him in his heart: "It turns out that he is the one who killed the queen Li Yu, Uncle Qingzhou, this Wu Yue monarch, killed the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is this also a person with both ability and political integrity?" ”
Qingzhou seemed to respect this person very much, and explained: "Xiaoqiu doesn't know that Qian Shu is a hero. He offered a plan to capture Empress Li in order to reduce the sacrifice of the soldiers. The Southern Tang Dynasty has been extinguished, Wu Yueguo's lips are cold, and Qian Shu cried bitterly in the Lingmiao for three days, and he was a lifelong pain in not being able to keep the society.
But he knew that he must take the safety and security of the people in the world as the only thought, in order to protect the people, and take the good deeds of 'valuing the people and ignoring the land', so that the Taizu soldiers can unify the country without blood, such a mind is rare in the world. Xiaoqiu, do you say that such a person is a hero? Qiuqiu listened attentively, nodded her head non-stop, and quietly changed her evaluation of this person in her heart, and couldn't help but admire:
"Every time in the last days, how many emperors in order to have a few more days of pampering, endless conscription to fight, so that hundreds of people's families are ruined, so that for the people to give up the country, is the real hero." Zhao Qingzhou saw that Qiuqiu listened to it, and was very relieved in his heart, and continued to preach:
"When Qian Shu, the monarch of Wuyue Kingdom, was in power, he built this Leifeng Pagoda, and some people said that he wanted to pray for the people to have good weather and abundant grains. Another theory says that he built the tower to celebrate the birth of his own flesh and blood. Qiuqiu thought about the dim light in the distance, and asked casually, "Then what happened later, where did he go?" ”
Zhao Qingzhou paused for a moment and said, "I was killed by a traitor and died of poisoning." Qiuqiu raised her head in surprise, looked at Zhao Qingzhou, and heard him say in a hoarse voice: "Xiaoqiu, the world is impermanent, even the most virtuous people may be assassinated. However, we should not stop working hard for self-cultivation and governing the country because we are afraid of being assassinated.
Look at this tower, it is bright, and when Qian Shu's descendants see this tower, they will remember the mind and courage of their ancestors. Xiaoqiu, some people, even our closest relatives, although they are gone, his character may be like this glowing tower, so that we are willing to be like him as long as we see or think of it. One day when you grow up, you will become the most virtuous person like him, and finally you will become a shining tower for future generations to look up to you, you know. ”
Qiuqiu swallowed a mouthful of saliva before she understood: it turned out that Qingzhou had gone around in a big circle, and she was using the allusion of Leifeng Pagoda to inspire her to be a character like the prince and Gui. A thought suddenly flashed in her mind: God, what does Qingzhou mean, should it be that I want her to be a prince in the future, right?! Qiuqiu was shocked, and suddenly heard the boatman's voice sound: The moon in the three pools has arrived.
