Chapter 2 Whose Woman?
Baiyun Canggou, five years passed in a trance.
In 705, the first year of the dragon. Empress Wu fell ill, and Prime Minister Zhang Khan Zhi and others launched the "Shenlong Revolution" to support the restoration of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, forcing Empress Wu to abdicate. The Tang Dynasty finally regained its national name.
The words of the old immortal have been kept in Li Yingzheng's heart for the past few years, and he dare not forget every minute.
In the first half of this year, Li Yingzheng moved his family from the Western Regions to Mianzhou County, Shudi.
This move was to allow Li Bai to have better contact with the culture of the Central Plains and help him enrich his knowledge. In addition, the Central Plains is rich in products and prosperous in business, which is also very helpful for the Li family to develop their business;
After coming to Yanming County, the Li family's business journey was smooth sailing, and they were well-known wealthy families in Zhangming County.
The Li family's mansion is divided into three courtyards, the courtyard layout is magnificent, the structure is clear and neat, and there are no less than 30 houses of all sizes.
Li Bai has been extremely smart since he was a child, and he can speak some simple sentences at the age of one, and he can already be simply literate by the age of three.
Keeping in mind the words of the old immortal, Li Yingzheng also began to spend a lot of time and energy teaching him very early, and began to expose him to poetry and books at the age of four.
When Li Bainian was five years old, he had already recited Liujia and watched hundreds of schools.
"Akita is like a green hill, wandering overseas, swallowing like a cloud dreamer, and there is no ......mustard in his chest."
This sentence comes from "Zixu Fu" written by Hanchen Sima Xiangru 800 years ago.
When he was ten years old, after Li Bai read this "Zixu Fu", he admired it in his heart, and read all the works of Sima Xiangru, and took Sima Xiangru as his ambition. And made "Mingtang Fu", which caused a sensation in the entire Ming County, and everyone called Wenxing down to earth, the talent of Tianzhong. He was accepted as a small official by the order of Zhangming County.
As early as two or three years before this, Li Yingzheng had taught Li Bai to practice martial arts and swords, and when he was on an errand in Yanming County, Li Yingzheng gave the family heirloom sword "Kaohsiung" to Li Bai.
Since then, Li Bai has continued to practice swords diligently, day after day. Two years passed in a flash, but in the past two years, Li Bai has been deeply troubled by the inaction and pedantry of the county order.
When he was a teenager, he always wanted to get out of this little turbidity.
......
The blue sky is like washing, Dengyang Lake is sparkling, and the sun is shining.
A group of four people walked towards Dengyang Lake, the first one was dressed in a blue official uniform, but it was Chen Lu, the county magistrate of Zhangming County, and the other three were all following behind Chen Lu, all dressed as small officials.
The other two of the three officials are about thirty years old, but the last one, who is five feet tall, looks like a child, with red lips and white teeth, bright eyes like stars, and brows like long swords.
This little official is Li Bai, and the three of them accompanied the county commander on a trip to Dengyang Lake today.
It's just that at this time, on the edge of Dengyang Lake, there is a large circle of people bustling, and it seems to be pointing at a certain place in the lake, which is very noisy.
Seeing this, Chen Lu frowned, and also waved his hand, "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”
Then the four of them walked towards the crowd.
When he got close to the river, Li Bai looked at the river, and then his pupils shrank.
I saw that on the surface of the river, there was a female corpse floating horizontally at this moment, the woman looked like she was about twenty years old, dressed in green clothes, and her face was a little swollen after being soaked in water at the moment, but it could still be seen that she must have been a beautiful woman with a good face before her death.
And at this moment, when the people saw that the county order Chen Lu was coming, they all consciously got out of the way.
Chen Lu walked to the edge of the lake and cast her eyes on the woman floating in the lake.
A large group of people next to him kept pointing at the female corpse in the river, and there were many discussions. After a long time, this Chen Lu stood by the river, but he didn't say a word.
Li Bai couldn't help but look at Chen Lu, but then his eyes shrank. I saw that Chen Lu didn't seem to have the slightest intention of trying the case in his eyes, but just stood there, and even showed a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
A nameless anger suddenly rose from Li Bai's heart!
As a parent official, in the face of such a dead corpse, he didn't think about the trial, but he was indifferent, and he actually held this mentality of watching the excitement.
His brows furrowed deeply, and a touch of sarcasm flashed from Li Bai's eyes.
In the past two years, following Chen Lu's side, Chen Lu's pedantry and inaction, he would have been full of it, if it weren't for his young age, he would have left the county government a long time ago.
At that moment, I heard the sound of rapid footsteps coming from behind the crowd on the right. Li Bai turned his head and followed the sound to look at the river on his right, but he only saw a black shadow, jumped down, jumped into the river, and then there was a sound of "plopping" water.
Li Bai chased a few steps to the front of the river, only to see a black-clothed young man in the river falling into the water at the moment, half of his body exposed outside the water, fifteen or sixteen years old, with a broad body, a round face and leopard eyes, and a natural heroic spirit on his body.
I saw the black-clothed young man splashing in the turbid river, and quickly swam towards the female corpse.
Swimming all the way to the side of the female corpse, the young man grabbed the female corpse's waist with one right hand, and then swam back with great difficulty.
Swimming to the riverside, the people had already responded, and several people dragged the boy and the boy in their arms to the riverside.
The female corpse was laid flat on the river, and the black-clothed young man was also standing on the side, panting and wringing out the water from his clothes.
Everyone rushed up again, watching the female corpse and began to point, and it was extremely noisy for a while.
"Whose woman is this?"
"This is from the upstream of Chenpu Town?"
"No, it's hard for people from Chenpu Town to float here. ”
"Did this woman offend someone?"
For a time, many voices were discussed.
Chen Lu also stepped forward and looked down at the female corpse on the ground.
This woman is indeed handsome, with a goose egg face and willow eyebrows.
Chen Lu squinted his eyes and looked at it, then stroked his beard, frowned as if he was thinking, and after a while, he opened his mouth, "Twenty-eight girls, floating to lean on the shore of the reed." The bird peeps at the emerald on the eyebrows, and the fish gets the mouth next to the Zhu. There was a smug look on his face, as if he was admiring his talent.
Ridiculous! As a parent official, he was wronged at the head of the river, but he was endowed with poetry and showed off his elegance. Hateful!
A deep sarcasm flashed through Li Bai's eyes. immediately blurted out, "The green hair scatters with the waves, and the red face is gone after the waves." Why is it that when you meet Wu Xiang, you should want to Qiuhu!"
Everyone couldn't help but look at this child-like little official.
"Good poetry!" a loud and heroic voice from the crowd burst out.
With the voice, I saw a black figure squeezing out from the back of a large crowd.
"Your Excellency has pointed out the cause and done justice. This woman must have been bullied by a traitor with a grudge on her face. It's a pity that I have met some officials, who are insensitive, and I can't redress my grievances!" said in a loud voice of the black figure, looking at the county commander Chen Lu with deep sarcasm in his eyes.
This man in black is not the heroic young man who jumped into the river to save people just now.
