Old things in Nancheng

The moon in July and a half is round and bright. White gauze lanterns are hung on the four corners of the lake pavilion in the other courtyard. With the cool summer wind, they float leisurely. , sometimes complete, silently telling the joys and sorrows of life.

The two people in the pavilion are both extraordinary in appearance, the older one wears a cloth scarf in a high bun and has elegant long sleeves, while the younger one has a shiny black hair with slightly fluttering ribbons and starry eyes shining brightly under the moonlight.These two people are exactly Jiang Shangpei and Wang Zimo.

"Brother, can you tell us about Mr. Qin Hui?"

Wang Zimo's impression of Qin Hui mainly came from Lin Zhilan, who persecuted Yue Fei and betrayed his country for glory. Wang Zimo hated Qin Hui deeply, but ever since she knew that Qin Hui had saved the Wang family, her heart was in turmoil.

"Qin Xianggong? This person is not easy to evaluate."

"Brother, please speak clearly."

"As far as I know, Qin Xianggong is knowledgeable and talented. He was captured together with the 'two sages'. In the fourth year of Jianyan, he fled back to Lin'an. "Northern people return to the north" was not tolerated by the important ministers in the court. He was dismissed the next year and has not been revived until now, but he still wins the trust of the officials."

"It is the most urgent wish of the people of the Great Song Dynasty to fight against the gold and recover the lost land. The Prime Minister of Qin insisted on negotiating a peace, which is really suspected of betraying the country." Wang Zimo said bluntly.

"Brother, what you said is wrong. Although there are rumors in the court that Qin Xianggong was released deliberately by a gold thief to seek the land in the south of the Yangtze River, but the situation in the Song Dynasty is complicated, and how can a mere cypress be able to control it."

"Please teach me, brother."

Jiang Shangpei thought for a while, and said: "The difficulty of Jingkang is the shame of our Song Dynasty. The 'two sages' were captured, the royal family was completely lost, and the land in Jiangbei became enemies. The uprising continued, and the Jin Kingdom was aggressive, and the war was retreating steadily. The official family hunted south and fled from Mingzhou to the sea. After the generals quelled the civil disturbance, they drove the gold thieves out of Yangzhou, and the official family returned to the shore."

"The royal family's dignity is lost, how can we not make people feel embarrassed." Prince Mo Fu agreed.

"Now, the situation in the imperial court is temporarily stable, and we are facing a dilemma. It is difficult to fight, and it is also difficult to make peace." Jiang Shangpei said slowly, "War is what the people want, and all the generals are strategists. However, the treasury is empty and the people's livelihood is difficult. How to be able to fight. The official family is sympathetic to the people, rests with the people, decides Lin'an as their own capital, lives extremely simple, does not build palaces, does not construct buildings, does not expand the harem, the life of the official family is not decent, it is just like a farmhouse Weng Qiang is just a step up. Nowadays, there are continuous wars in various places, farming is not prosperous, taxation is not smooth, Wu Jie, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and other ministries in front of them have a total of more than [-] people, and they can't support them. They can't send troops without food and pay. "

"So asking for peace?" Wang Zimo frowned slightly, obviously she was the main one.

"Harmony is also a word, 'difficult'. The so-called weak countries have no diplomacy, seek peace, cede land, pay reparations, profess ministers, and pay tribute. Undoubtedly, they will drink doves to quench their thirst."

"Then why not give it a go!"

"It's still one word, 'difficult'! At the beginning, the generals quelled the civil chaos, and the banner they played was to recover the lost ground and welcome back the 'two saints'. Otherwise, how could the situation be stabilized quickly. The results are gratifying, but the officials are full of worries The official family has reached the extreme position. If the "two saints" are welcomed back, how can the official family deal with themselves. In addition, the name of the founding of the Song Dynasty is not right and the words are not smooth. The most taboo of the court is not foreign enemies, but internal troubles. Generals command soldiers If the generals fight back to Jiangbei and become rebellious, the court will undoubtedly make things worse." Jiang Shangpei is very rational at this time, although he is also somewhat dissatisfied with the court.

"In this way, we can only linger on and live in peace?" After all, Wang Zimo is still young and not familiar with the officialdom, so she cannot accept such an explanation.

"Otherwise, so what should I do? Brother, if you are an official, what can you do? Don't forget, all the princes and daughters are only the official. It is acceptable to cede land and claim the title of king. At the beginning, the officials said that they wanted the Northern Expedition, but it was just to stop Youyou's mouth, otherwise, no one would submit to him. As for the Northern Expedition, I am not strong enough. Don't look at me like a cloud in the Song Dynasty, what about the Jin Kingdom? It's easy to fight." Jiang Shangpei said earnestly.

Prince Mo Moran, obviously, as a commoner, she can't understand the complexity of the situation.From the top to the bottom of the Song court, seeking peace was the national policy, but there were differences in seeking peace. Zhao Ding and Zhang Jun sought peace for the main purpose of prevention, while Qin Hui was the spokesperson of the Kingdom of Jin.

The topic is too heavy. Qin Hui is certainly a conspirator, but the perpetrators are officials. According to the historical evaluation of later generations known by Lin Zhilan, Qin Hui is notorious and is cast aside by thousands of people. Song Gaozong Zhao Gou, although he is known as a cowardly and faint king, Almost no one said he was a traitor, and Qin Hui was responsible for all the blame.

Prince Mo sighed long, heartbroken for this humiliated and riddled country. However, she could only be like those literati and poets. mediocre.

She is just the most ordinary commoner.

Jiang Shangpei understands her pain, and he understands more and more deeply. He keeps telling himself that in his position, he will seek his own government. Since he is the magistrate of a county, he will manage Yanguan County well and contribute to the entire county. , let others worry about it.

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don't know the palace in the sky. What year is it..."

"People have sorrows and joys, and the moon has cloudy and sunny waxes and wanes. This matter is difficult to complete in ancient times. I hope that people will live a long time and share the joys and joys of thousands of miles."

The two recited a poem together, looked up at each other, and saw helplessness and confusion in each other's eyes.

"My dear brother, it's really not easy for you today. Don't be discouraged, don't forget the old man's instructions, live well and live a prosperous life."

While the two brothers were feeling emotional, a few people came from a distance, the lanterns were indistinct, and their clothes were colorful. Wang Zimo looked up and felt that those tiny lights were like the warm sun in winter, warming his heart It is also like a bright light at night, guiding the lost self.

A group of people stopped at the gate of the pavilion, and Lin Zhilan entered the pavilion alone, with a smile on her face, like a spring breeze, holding a pot in her plain hand, filling the wine for the two of them, and her clear voice slowly flowed out: "You two are really in a good mood, the cool night is long, drinking wine For talking, I think it was like this when we were in Xingyuan Mansion."

Moonlight, cool breeze, fine wine, beautiful women, how to keep men from fascinated, women's beauty, fragility, tenacity, hope in despair, eagerness in hope, since ancient times, the power of beauty is infinite.

A smile that captivates the city, and a smile that captivates the nation.

In order to keep such a beauty, how can a man not be strong and fierce, and the fleeting sense of powerlessness is instantly destroyed.

Wang Zimo looked at the slender and affectionate Lin Zhilan, took a sip of wine, choked her so much that she couldn't help coughing, she coughed up tears, her heart ached, Lin Zhilan gently wiped it away, Wang Zimo met Lin Zhilan's concerned eyes, Laughed.

An absurd thought flashed through, unfounded worry.

Jiang Shangpei also smiled slightly, the slight sense of alienation in the past slowly dissipated due to the new marriage.

"It's late at night, the two of you are going to drink, but you have to pay attention to your body. Big brother, bring my sister-in-law out in a few days, the four of us will swim and drink together, wouldn't it be fun."

Jiang Shangpei blushed a little and said, "She is young, so she doesn't know how to deal with people very much."

"My family, how can there be so many rules? Is it possible that elder brother will hide my sister-in-law for a lifetime?" Seeing that the two of them were no longer as depressed as before, Lin Zhilan became aggressive in speaking.

"Lan'er is right." Wang Zimo agreed.

"Okay, okay, I'll bring it for you to take a closer look at another day. She has been to Xianlai Pavilion once, and she was full of praise for the dishes. I told her that the family banquet in Yanguan County is the best in Yanguan County. Looking back, you You have to treat her with the best, or you won't be able to lose face as a brother."

"Since I'm a sister-in-law, naturally there's nothing wrong with my heart."

Lin Zhilan left, leaving Wang Zimo with a meaningful look, but Wang Zimo couldn't leave for the time being, because Jiang Shangpei told her an amazing news.

"Zimo, I only found out recently that the imperial envoy came in two ways, one for the light and one for the dark." Jiang Shangpei said in a low voice.

Wang Zimo's eyes widened. The bright road should be to search the Wang family, but what is the secret road for?

"The leader of the secret road is the long history of the palace of the seven prefectures. What do you think he came here for?"

When Wang Zimo heard this, her slightly drunk brain spun at high speed, and suddenly she opened her eyes wide, and said in a low voice, "No, I came here to help Xie Liangfu!"

"Yes! It's for the autumn tax! The officials are too short of money. When the King of the Seven Counties recommended Xie Liangfu, he promised the officials that he would take the taxes of Yanguan County in his hands, and the officials agreed. Xie Liangfu was unable to do so. Opening up the situation, how can the King of the Seventh Counties not be in a hurry, this time, it is Mr. Chang Shi, which shows the determination of the King of the Seventh Counties."

"If that's the case, then things will be difficult."

Wang Zimo had no feelings for the King of the Seven Counties. This person was too far away from her. Wang Zimo would secretly help Jiang Shangpei. He just wanted to hit Xie Liangfu, and he didn't want to join their struggle.As for Jiang Shangpei, he doesn't care whether he collects taxes or not. People of his line just don't want to be involved in the vortex of seizing the heir. If someone who is not involved is replaced as the county magistrate, Jiang Shangpei will not unite with the local gentry to fight against it. .

In handling this matter, Jiang Shangpei handled it very delicately, giving Xie Liangfu the respect he deserved, with a little bit of benefits, and it was difficult for Xie Liangfu to intervene in other things.This point of balance allows Xie Liangfu not to rise up and resist when he is surrounded by enemies. However, the plan cannot keep up with the changes, and the arrival of Shi, the governor of the county palace, broke this balance.

"Brother, now we can only respond to all changes with the same, let's see the situation first." After thinking for a long time, Wang Zimo still didn't come up with a good solution. In the face of absolute strength, any plots and schemes are futile.

"Well, it's late at night, you should go to bed earlier, otherwise, Mrs. Lin won't let me enter your house next time."

Wang Zimo sent Jiang Shangpei out of the gate before turning back to the main room.

At this time, the entire other courtyard has fallen asleep, only Caiyue is still guarding the outer room of the main room, waiting for Wang Zimo to come back.Wang Zimo never wanted anyone to serve him, and Caiyue only prepared water and clothes for him.

After taking a bath, his slightly drunk head cleared up a lot. Wang Zimo put on the fine cotton T-shirt that Lin Zhilan made himself, and got on the bed swinging his two long white and tender legs.

Staring at the moonlight with bated breath, Lin Zhilan was lying on her side, with a small silk suspender on top and thin briefs on the bottom. Her arms, chest, and thighs were all covered in white flowers, shining like jade in the moonlight.

Breathing became urgent, as if using the nose could not satisfy the body's demand for oxygen, Wang Zimo slightly parted his lips, spreading the slightly alcoholic heat on Lin Zhilan's face.

"Lan'er?"

Wang Zimo called softly, but Lin Zhilan was already fast asleep, only her long and dense eyelashes trembled slightly under Wang Zimo's breathing.

Wang Zimo only felt that this person in front of her, she couldn't see enough, kiss enough, love enough, and her heart was not as good as her actions. In this scattered world, grasping the moment and doing whatever she wants is the truth.

Holding the bare, half-exposed mountain peak with one hand, soft lips pressed gently against her, with Lin Zhilan's unique body fragrance in her nose, as well as the faint sweetness of body fluid.Originally, he wanted to taste it, but who would have thought that Lin Zhilan unconsciously pressed close to Wang Zimo, and there was a vague groan and groan from her thin throat.

Wang Zimo thought to himself, since they are so familiar, it doesn't matter if they don't say hello, it's good for their physical and mental health.

Slowly, the kiss deepened and the strength increased. In this familiar place, she was looking for the most beautiful feeling. Lin Zhilan woke up from this beautiful feeling. She was still in a daze, only feeling that her legs were separated. The feeling of emptiness in the body was quickly expelled, and what was left was an uncontrollable comfort.

The muscles all over the body tensed and then loosened, loosened and tightened again, his hands couldn't help wrapping his arms around Wang Zimo, pulled her closer to him, bit her ear and said softly: "You hate it, everyone is asleep."

This sentence is disgusting, and it has nine twists and eighteen turns, and it is so tender that Wang Zimo is like water.

"I am an obedient child."

Wang Zimo's face was flushed, and his voice was hoarse. When the word "child" popped out, he suddenly increased his force viciously, which made Lin Zhilan's heart tremble, and he couldn't help but raise his voice. In this silent night, very far away.

For a whole night, Wang Zimo tossed and tossed endlessly, with a deep attachment to Lin Zhilan, and the courage to seek inspiration from his beloved, with every groan and moan of Lin Zhilan, Wang Zimo would become stronger.

Yes, no matter how stormy it is outside, as long as the home is safe, there is hope for a sunny day.
