Chapter 29 Chapter 29: Night Walk

Bianliang City is never closed at night, and its gates are not locked. It is a city of light without night. At this time, on the Bianhe waterway leading directly to the city, there was a brightly lit big boat coming through the wind and waves. On both sides of the bank, there were many people on horseback, sedan chairs, and people on foot, all holding lanterns. There are colorful colors, but each lantern has three clearly recognizable characters of "Ruxuefang". This is what Yang Hao came up with from some modern enterprises in order to market customers and provide customers with ideas such as umbrellas and paper bags with their own corporate logos. The cost is not much, but the effect is excellent.

The night market in Bianliang was already extremely bustling, but suddenly such a fire dragon entered the city, attracting the attention of countless people. Fortunately, Yang Hao had already informed the officials of Kaifeng Mansion, and everyone knew that there would be such a move tonight, otherwise It's hard to guarantee that no one will rush back to the government office to beat drums as a warning. There are lights everywhere on the big ship, bright as day, a tall pole at the bow, with a string of red lights hanging on it, and the big characters of "Ru Xuefang" hanging on it. At the bow, headed by Liu Duo'er, countless young girls wear corollas of apricot and pear blossoms on their heads, Looking at the railing under the lamp, laughing and talking.On the banks of the Bianhe River on both sides, there are countless singers carrying lanterns singing.

The streets of Bianliang, where BMW carvings and car fragrances filled the streets, suddenly added another scene. The brightly lit painting buildings looked like a paradise on earth.The silk and bamboo orchestras in the brothel are endless, and the guests who are not in a hurry all heard the sound of hugging the waist of the young girl and went up to the small building. They were surprised to see the laughter on both sides of the Bian River resounding in the hazy night. city.There are also many common people with their sons and daughters running towards the banks of the Bian River in the Goulan of Washe.

In the past, there were many boats on the Bian River, but tonight it seemed that there was an agreement. Many boats disappeared, and they all made way for the painting. Le, with countless star-like lanterns on both sides of the strait, came in a mighty way.Reflection into the water, light and shadow intersect, picturesque and poetic, pleasing to the eye... In the refreshing night breeze and blurred lights, the fortune-teller also left his stall, holding the Tai'a sword made of gold paper in his right hand, and holding the banner of "Cut all the students in the world with the same voice" in his left hand, squeezed into the crowd to watch There was a lot of excitement.At the right time, fireworks were suddenly set off on the boat, and thousands of trees and pear blossoms suddenly bloomed in the high night sky, pushing the joy of the people to a new climax.

The Song Dynasty emphasized business, but the commercial atmosphere of the Song Dynasty was very integrated with cultural tastes. It was rich but not vulgar, bold but not stingy. .” I never forget the prosperous scene of Bianliang... The disciples try to be as happy as possible, not afraid that someone will accuse him of being absurd and delaying his future. There is no market for the too stupid ethics and defense in today's Song Dynasty. Happy people, happy people all over the world, what's the use of you if you don't let the common people live happily? "Demolish it, continue to demolish it for me!" An untimely voice suddenly came out of the endless singing and laughter, and Cheng Dexuan came out of a small alley in disgrace, and it was unknown who threw a bag of stove ashes from the dark On his face, he ran out angrily. Hearing the sound of laughter on the Bian River, he hurriedly stood on the low wall that was half demolished at the entrance of the alley and looked there.

He also knew that Yang Hao had invited Liu Xingshou from "Ruxuefang" for a field trip tonight, he knew his arrangements for returning to the city tonight, and when he saw the painting boats coming on the Bian River, two fire dragons formed on both sides, he knew that It is he who is back.From a distance, he seemed to be able to see Yang Hao standing on the bow of the boat, surrounded by fragrances, with a happy face, and a nameless anger could not help but rise to his heart. He stood there gnashing his teeth, and just about to say a national curse, "Wow!" A commoner rushed out from nowhere, brought a basin of water, and immediately poured it all on him, "Uh... bah bah bah, who will take it?" Splash this official with footwashing water, come, and catch that troublemaker for me!"

Cheng Dexuan spat out dirty water and was furious. The little commoner who was looking for revenge because his firewood shed was demolished threw away the crock pot and fled away in a hurry, getting into the bustling crowds who were watching the fun by the Bian River. up. "Kill me with anger!" Cheng Dexuan looked up to the sky and howled like a wolf about to transform into a wolf on a full moon night, turned his head and ordered angrily: "Teardown, teardown, continue to tear down! No tiles~~~ Don't leave any! "
On the same night, a large ship quietly sailed into Stone City.Stone City is the Nanjing of later generations, today's Jinling, the capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

There are only a few lights hanging on the boat, illuminating a faint line of big characters on a big flag: "Zhenhai Jiedu". There are many neatly armored soldiers standing quietly on both sides of the boat. After checking the identity of the person who came, he immediately boarded the gangway, and a general with bright armor and a crimson cloak came ashore.With a vigorous physique, he walks like a dragon and a tiger, looking at him with great prestige. In the dark of the bow, a pair of bright eyes watched the big red cloak of the great general hunting in the wind disappear into the night like a bat, and murmured: "I hope Lin Huzi can convince Li Yu on this trip, then I'm going to sell it!"

Stone City has fallen into a deep sleep at this moment, the whole city is silent, only a line of chariots and horses galloping towards the palace, the sound of horseshoes shattering the tranquility of the alley. In the palace, Tang Emperor Li Yu hadn't fallen asleep yet, so he left the government and changed his monk's clothes to worship the Buddha. After reading the scriptures, Li Yu bathed and changed his clothes again, changed into a loose and fit Taoist uniform, and played chess with the queen in the harem. His current queen is called Xiao Zhou Queen by people outside the palace, because the queen's sister, Zhou Ehuang, was originally Li Yu's first wife, the queen. After Zhou Ehuang's death, Li Yu continued, and her younger sister Zhou Jiamin was accepted.

The marriage between the emperor and Empress Xiao Zhou was actually quite dissatisfied with the gentlemen of the Tang Dynasty.Because the former queen Zhou Ehuang was dignified and virtuous, she was very popular in the country. However, when the queen was ill, her younger sister Jiamin came to visit the palace, but she had an affair with her brother-in-law Li Yu. Li Yu also wrote a poem about their affair. He also made the fragrant and intimidating "Bodhisattva Man" into a Yuefu, and spread it out without any care, and the queen was the only one in the country. The queen finally found out the truth, the queen died of illness, but many people thought that if the emperor hadn't been so romantic and had fun with her sister during her serious illness, which made the queen unhappy, her condition might not have worsened and she died suddenly, so I am very dissatisfied with Li Yu after accepting Xiao Zhou.

The regular monarchs of the Tang Dynasty were all regular wives who were married before becoming emperors. Before that, no emperor married a queen when he was in power. Therefore, how the emperor accepted the queen was unprecedented in the history of the Tang Dynasty and could not follow the old rituals. At the time of the ceremony, the ministers of the DPRK and China used the excuse of not being familiar with the ceremony after the ceremony to shirk their excuses. How can Li Yu's life be separated from singing and dancing, surrounded by beauties?The empress died of illness, and he had lived a deserted court life following the ancient rituals for three years. Seeing the ministers arguing and shirking, and the date of marriage was so far away, at this moment, he could no longer pretend to be reserved, so he came forward to intervene in person, and was in a hurry. An auspicious date was set. Because the time was wrong, the wild geese had already flown south, so Li Yu simply used the white goose to replace the wild goose. Enter the palace after a week. On the night of the emperor's wedding, important ministers Han Xizai and Xu Xuan gathered friends for a banquet and wrote poems to ridicule him in public. Among them were acrimonious lines such as "the spring is unknown in the world, and we will enter the Jiuchong City first tonight", but he didn't care.However, he is really infatuated with Empress Xiao Zhou. The two have been married for more than two years. Among all the concubines, he loves the little empress the most. They worship Buddha and play chess together, and he also helps the empress It is really loving to develop the coloring material for dyeing clothes and the powder cake for face application. At this time, Li Yu was playing chess with Empress Xiao Zhou in the harem "Jindongtian".Li Yu and Empress Xiao Zhou are both romantic factors. In spring, all kinds of flowers are in full bloom. The couple filled the roof beams, window sills, walls, steps and other places of the palace with flowers. Build many beautifully decorated small pavilions, surrounded by thin and translucent red silk, the inside is very narrow, only can accommodate two people, and when they are interested, they hide in this two-person world to drink, chant poems and play chess Against Yi, the affection becomes lingering, and there is no shunning. Zhenhai Jiedu envoy Lin Renzhao entered the palace at night, and when he heard that the emperor hadn't rested yet, he couldn't help being overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Please tell the officials, Lin Renzhao has a very urgent matter, please see the officials immediately." Everyone in the inner court knew that Lin Renzhao was the number one military general in the Tang Dynasty, and he had important matters to come here late at night, so he didn't dare to neglect, so he immediately went to the harem to meet Li Yu. Luo formed a small tent, and in the tent was a lamp, and the two figures came out clearly. There was a slender and slim silhouette behind Si Luo, and he didn't dare to look at it too much, he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Officials, General Lin Renzhao, the governor of Zhenhai Festival, has something to see." From the Siluo Brocade Tent, there was a charming smile from Gege, as sweet as an oriole: "Guan, with this move, you have nowhere to go, right?" Li Yu's chess board was trapped by Empress Xiao Zhou, and he was thinking hard about how to get out of the siege. After hearing the report from the inner court, he responded casually: "Lin Renzhao is here? He didn't stay in his place and ran to the capital so late to do it." what?" Everyone in the inner court laughed and said: "I don't know, General Lin seems to have a very important matter, and my servants dare not ask about it." Li Yu chuckled and said, "What's the matter?" He waved his hand, and the inner court didn't dare to say anything. After thinking hard for a while, Li Yu's eyes lit up, and he picked up a chess piece and "slapped" it, haha He laughed loudly and said, "Queen, isn't this a relief?" Lin Renzhao, dressed in military uniform, hurried back and forth in a side hall, bringing the five red candles in the shape of plum blossoms on the silver candlesticks to swing back and forth with his figure.From time to time, he would rush to the entrance of the palace, look up at the harem, rub his hands again and again in anxiety, and then go back to pace. The time passed bit by bit, the candles were filled with tears, and the candles were already half-burned, but they returned before the servant was seen. Lin Renzhao raised his eyebrows, bursting with anger, and thought to himself: "These eunuchs, who are not as good as pigs and dogs, are greedy for money and contemptible. I don't know how bad it is, could it be that you deliberately delayed me because you didn't promise him any benefits?" Lin Renzhao was brave and good at fighting. He was the number one military general in Southern Tang Dynasty. , I can only endure it, I can only stop from time to time, and sigh... This game of chess was finally over, Li Yu won his wife, and laughed, the inner court who had been waiting for a long time outside knew a long sigh of relief, and quickly called again: "Official family." "Hahaha, the queen's chess skills have improved so fast, it's not easy to beat you now. Huh? What's the matter?" "Officials, General Lin Renzhao, the Governor of Zhenhai, has something to see, have you been waiting for a long time?" "Oh!" Li Yu just remembered, patted his forehead, and said apologetically to Empress Xiao Zhou: "It's late at night, and Lin Huzi is still disturbing people. .” In the side hall, Lin Renzhao was already sweating profusely from anxiety, the servant came hurriedly and said happily, "General Jiao Lin has been waiting for a long time, the official family will see you at Chengxin Hall." "Hmph!" Lin Renzhao's face was ashen, and he walked away, leaving the inexplicable servant there. In Chengxin Hall, Li Yuping retreated to the left and right, listening to Lin Renzhao's secret performance.After hearing Lin Renzhao's astonishing plan, Li Yu, who was pinching his brows and closing his eyes to rest his mind, was taken aback. He stood up all of a sudden, and said in a voiceless voice: "How can this be? Isn't this setting yourself on fire?" Li Yulong's forehead is parallel to his teeth, his right eye is double pupil, according to physiognomy, he is the image of a born saint.The protruding forehead is actually a broad forehead, and the parallel teeth are relatively neat buck teeth. According to the medical explanation of later generations, the double pupils are caused by adhesions and distortions of the pupils, commonly known as paired eyes.But in the ancient books, it is believed that this is a natural vision, which is beyond words. Although Li Yu was born with a different appearance, he couldn't see these subtleties without careful observation. He is only thirty-four years old now, with a plump figure and a dignified appearance. He is dressed in a Taoist uniform, showing grace, but at this time Surprised, his mustaches were raised and his beard was handsome. He was really frightened by Lin Renzhao. Lin Renzhao proposed an astonishing plan to him: the Jiangbei Song Army is now attacking the Southern Han Kingdom.After destroying Southern Jing, Houshu and other countries, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty were exhausted and there was not much food and grass. Now they have dispatched a large army to rush to the Southern Han Dynasty. This is a great opportunity for the Tang Dynasty. Lose ground and turn things around.How can Li Yu not be surprised? Lin Renzhao explained: "Officials, this opportunity must not be missed. It will never come again. This is a rare and good opportunity. If we can regain the lost ground in one fell swoop, we don't have to rely on the river as our only reliance. If we can go to the north and take Bianliang directly, the whole The world is at your fingertips, even if it doesn't work, the Song army who went to the Southern Han Kingdom will panic and return to help when they hear the news. The danger can be solved." "No, no," Li Yu waved his hands and shook his head again and again: "Song people don't come to the south to invade, but we want to give others a chance and take the initiative to attack? Such an unwise move is definitely not feasible." "Guanjia!" Lin Renzhao was anxious, and immediately knelt down: "Guanjia, Zhao Kuangyin has great ambitions. It's not that he won't conquer the Tang Dynasty, but now he is just powerless. Once he destroys Nanhan and frees up his hand, I will be the next one." The Tang Dynasty is over. If the officials are worried about the revenge of the Song people, the ministers are willing to bear it all. They only ask the officials to allow the ministers to command the arrows with the tiger talisman, let the ministers lead the army to go out, and provide food and grass for the army. If it succeeds, it goes without saying. If it fails, please the officials For the crime of treason, just kill my whole family and apologize to Zhao Kuangyin, so that my country of Tang will be safe." "It's unreasonable, it's absolutely impossible to do this!" Li Yu bluffed his face and said: "Go, go, go back to your camp, be more peaceful, and don't cause trouble for me, otherwise, I will never forgive you lightly." Li Yu raised his leg and left after saying that, Lin Renzhao grabbed his sleeve, took two steps on his knees, and said with tears in his tiger eyes: "Officials, there is a good opportunity in the sky. It is related to the fate of our Tang Dynasty. Please think twice." Li Yu said angrily: "I have thought twice about it for a long time. If the people of Song Dynasty dare to attack me in the Tang Dynasty, I will go to the river in person and lead my soldiers from the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Kingdom turned evil, but took the opportunity to raise troops and provoke troubles for themselves for no reason. Is it the actions of a wise man? Don’t say it again, I don’t want to hear it!” Li Yu with all his strength pulled back his sleeves and brushed them away. Lin Renzhao stood up slowly, looked up to the sky and sighed... Li Yu was furious. He really didn't want to provoke the big tiger in Bianliang City. It was really stupid for Lin Renzhao to come up with such a stupid plan.He walked in a hurry, the servant knew that Lin Renzhao had angered the emperor, so he didn't dare to say anything, but followed him step by step. Li Yu walked for a while, suddenly his face changed, he looked up at the bright moon in the world, stroked his beard and thought for a moment, and said: "The decree, let the prince live... Well, no, he is still young and can't take on important responsibilities, ringgit Wang Congqian was appointed as the supervisor of the Zhenhai Navy, and immediately rushed to Zhenhai to monitor the three armies, and there must be no mistakes." "Observe the order!" The servant gave him a terrified look, then hurriedly turned and left. Li Yu has two sons, the second son died when he was four years old, and the eldest son Li Zhongyu is now fourteen years old. Although Li Yu has the heart to train, but the responsibility of supervising the army is heavy, he still dare not hand it over to his underage son. Still chose his ninth younger brother Ji Wang Li Congqian. Lin Renzhao returned to the pier overnight, only to see that his big boat was like a ferocious beast lying on the ground, rising and falling with the waves, as if waiting for his order all the time, opening its teeth and claws to choose and devour.He walked up the steps with heavy steps, and halfway through the walk, he looked back at the dark and majestic Stone City, and couldn't help crying. In the dark place of the bow, seeing Lin Renzhao's dejected expression with those bright eyes, he couldn't help but feel sad... At this time, after the large painting boat in the Bianhe River had sailed to the "Ru Xuefang", the still-excited candidates carried lanterns with the words "Ru Xuefang" and scattered to both sides of the Bian River, like a group of people. A group of fireflies generally spread the name "Ruxuefang" to the entire Tokyo city. Tomorrow, tonight's flame dance, white-clothed hymns, and Biren sword dance like flying immortals will pass through their mouths, their hearts and minds. The pen is passed on. Cui Dalang looked at Yang Hao with a smile, and asked: "Today is a big success, how will you treat tomorrow?" Yang Hao smiled and said: "Tomorrow, you will know tomorrow." Cui Dalang's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "If there is some shortage of money, hehe, how about I join the gang?" Yang Hao laughed and said: "Today's matter depends entirely on Da Lang. Even if money is not in short supply, I would still like to recruit you into the group. If you have money...everyone earns." Cui Dalang also laughed and said, "Let's be happy together!"
