At night, the river is brightly lit.

Shang Zhengyu and Cao Yinglong found a farmhouse not far from the ferry to live, watching the misty rain in the distance, drinking the wine at hand, it was a rare enjoyment.

"It's already here, it's a pity not to look at Gu Qingcheng's appearance. If the sixth brother is here, even if he spends a lot of money, even if he violates the rules set by the pavilion master, he will definitely go to see it. ”

Shang Zhengyu said with a smile and took another sip.

"With this grand scene, I'm afraid the waterway won't be able to go, Brother Shang, do we need to change the route?"

Cao Yinglong just wanted to rush to Yanjing as soon as possible at the moment, and nothing else.

As soon as the words fell, another cold light shot into the room, Cao Yinglong fixed his eyes, and it was the same as the dagger that reminded everyone in the main tent of the barracks that day that there was an enemy night attack, and immediately turned to Shang Zhengyu's gaze full of inquiry.

"It's not busy, maybe there's another way. ”

Shang Zhengyu's eyes moved slightly, opened the groove in the circle of the back handle of the dagger, and took out a small piece of silk cloth with eight words written on it:

Cloud returns to the painting boat, directly to Yanjing!

Shang Zhengyu suddenly laughed, stood up, and pulled Cao Yinglong and said:

"General, I'll leave today, can I?"

"How do I go?"

Cao Yinglong was very puzzled when he saw what was written in the silk cloth.

"By boat, of course!"

With a long laugh, Shang Zhengyu had already taken Cao Yinglong and headed towards the ferry in the distance, and when the old peasant woman entered the house again, there were only four copper coins left.

——

"Brother Shang, this is what you call a boat? This is also a bit ......."

Cao Yinglong really didn't know what words to use to express this embarrassment, he squatted on the ground with a wry smile, and tried his best to cover his body with the boxes around him, so as not to be seen.

"Brother Cao, those who become big things are not informal, not to mention that you still have 8,000 brothers waiting for you to avenge their grievances, so bear with it. ”

Shang Zhengyu squatted on the other side and took a sip of wine with a smile.

It turned out that as soon as the two of them rushed to the river, Shang Zhengyu grabbed Cao Yinglong and took off into the air, heading straight for the largest and most gorgeous Yungui painting boat in the center of the river.

Although Cao Yinglong had heard of such a stunt of crossing the river with false eyes, he was still shocked by what he saw, and before he could react, the two had already boarded the Yungui Painting Boat, and were hiding in the cabin of the Painting Boat at the moment.

"Brother Shang, how do you know where this Yungui Painting Boat is heading? If we don't go in the direction of the capital, wouldn't we have to make a detour again. ”

"Big brother rest assured, I will naturally find out, and in a while it will be the birthday of the Son of Heaven, with the temper of the eldest prince, he will definitely make a big deal with the imperial court, considering that everyone is so beautiful and proficient in music and rhythm, it has long been in the invitation list of the eldest prince, I estimate that after tonight, this painting boat will go straight to Yanjing day and night." ”

"If so, that's great. ”

Cao Yinglong looked surprised, although he seemed a little embarrassed at the moment, but he was very safe, and those killers would never think of where they were.

"During this time, I have to grieve General Cao. ”

Shang Zhengyu said, at this time, the originally noisy building boat suddenly quieted down, as if someone suddenly lost his voice, and even the birdsong and waves outside the window could be heard clearly.

A fairy sound floated from afar, such as silk, such as crying, extremely gentle, like a small jasper, is combing the long hair by the stream, the stream is tinkling, the clothes are slightly moist, there is a beauty of pear blossoms with rain.

Suddenly, there was a sound of gold and stone clashing from a distance, like a golden iron horse coming from a dream, and Cao Yinglong's mind immediately flashed the scenes of bloody battles with the captives on the battlefield, as if he was in the scene, and for a while, the qi was agitated, and he was about to get up.

"General, it's just a pipa, don't be impatient. ”

Shang Zhengyu hurriedly secretly lowered him, if he didn't stop him immediately, I am afraid that the two of them would be exposed.

"This Gu everyone is really a strange woman, if you haven't experienced the battlefield battle in Saibei, how can you write such a sonorous and powerful tune, worthy of everyone. ”

When Cao Yinglong thought of this, he immediately looked at everyone Gu with a different kind of respect.

"That's natural, I heard that in order to write the tragic battle in this battlefield into the song, Gu everyone never went out for a month, racked their brains, and the green silk fell countless times, and finally went north in person, it was in Liuyuguan that I experienced the tragic battle, and I finally wrote this rhyme into the song, which alone is admirable. ”

Shang Zhengyu listened to the tune from the northern desert to the Jiangnan minor tune, and the light and elegant in the song made people intoxicated.

"This Gu Qingcheng really lives up to everyone's name, if there is a chance, even I want to see her. ”

Listening to the melodious tune, the internal strength of the Immortal Killing Dao in his body, which was originally fiercely resisting under the pressure of the internal strength of the Joyful Heaven Lan Sutra, actually began to converge, which really surprised Shang Zhengyu a little.

Unconsciously, the fairy sound gradually subsided, but the painting boat was still silent, and the precipitation slapped against the hull of the boat, bursting for a while, as if reminiscing about the ethereal aftertaste, which made people unable to extricate themselves for a while.

A round of applause followed, followed by a roaring explosion, and some of the soldiers couldn't help but breathe heavily, as if they had just recovered from their suffocation.

The sound of praise was endless, and the two hid in the cabin, only to feel that the sound was noisy and unreal, so Shang Zhengyu simply poured a few sips of fine wine, and immediately turned a deaf ear.

This is Qingcheng's newly completed song, called "Mountains and Rivers Tune". Qingcheng went north to Yunzhou and saw a lot of scenery in the north, but the most unforgettable thing for Qingcheng was the millions of soldiers who defended the country and defended the border, where they fought bloodily and buried their bones in other places, just to keep one side safe.

"They are indebted to the fact that we are able to live so comfortably this time. Qingcheng people are soft-spoken, just a weak woman who lingers between the paintings, and can't do anything big, but all the gentlemen here are rising stars, and have both ability and political integrity, so Qingcheng is here to dare to persuade: I hope everyone can make persistent efforts, do everything they have learned, and build Dawei into an iron bucket of rivers and mountains, drive the captives out of the Northern Regions as soon as possible, and return my Dawei to a peaceful and prosperous world!"

"As you say, that's exactly what we want. ”

"I have a good wish, please rest assured, even if Liu is a liver and brain, he will definitely achieve this wish for the girl. ”

"Hey, I'm waiting for a scholar, there hasn't been a woman who can see through, ashamed, ashamed. ”

"Brother Wang, it's not too late here, why don't we apply for next year's imperial examination this year, maybe we will be able to get the title of the gold list, and then we can do more for the world. ”

That's a good thing. ”

......

For a while, the crowd in the painting boat was agitated, and they all expressed their desire to fulfill this wish for Gu everyone, and some scholars had already made their minds clear, and bowed to Gu everyone from afar, and their voices were no longer frivolous before.

"This Gu Qingcheng everyone is really a heroine among women, who knows righteousness and knows honor and disgrace, which is admirable. ”

Cao Yinglong suddenly slapped his palm on the wooden box beside him, and immediately made a hole and came out.

"The general is at ease. ”

Shang Zhengyu grinned and grasped his hand so as not to make a bigger move. But it seems to be okay, the sound on the painting boat is quite loud, and their sound has long been drowned.

In the middle of the night, the bright moon hung high, the painting boat stopped on the bank of the Qinshui River again, those scholars said goodbye one after another, the housekeeper's mother and many beauties went out of the boat to see them off, and the painting boat was clean for a while.

"General Cao must not move, the younger brother will go to investigate, and prepare to find some food to come back. ”

After that, Shang Zhengyu left the cabin and disappeared in a few tosses.
