The Lin family has a female named Qingyun [Red Mansion]

This time they left Beijing, the two had already agreed on the itinerary to take the waterway.

For one thing, Tuyan's body could not bear the long-term turbulence of the boat and the car, the waterway was relatively smooth, and the way down the river was lighter than the land way.Secondly, they mainly went there for Ningbo, Quanzhou, and Guangzhou. Naturally, they took the water route at the beginning, and it would be cheaper to do things later.They will take the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, launch in Tongzhou Port, pass through Tianjin Port, Linqing Port, dock at Xuzhou Port, and transfer to Jiuhuashan, Anhui by land.After answering the pretense, he went directly to neighboring Zhejiang in the name of traveling, first visited the Shipping Department of Ningbo, and then went down along the coastal route, followed by Quanzhou, Fujian and Guangzhou.

Lin Qingyun was not seasick. After boarding the boat, he enjoyed the scenery on the water for a while, and then returned to his room and ordered someone to prepare light meals such as porridge and vegetables.

This official ship is huge, with its sails raised, it cuts through the water at an extremely fast speed. There are more than a dozen houses on board, all of which are rich and exquisite with carved beams and painted buildings, very ostentatious.She and Tu Yan lived in the same room, but there was a small hall in the middle, and they lived in the left and right wing rooms. She didn't have her own room, but went to see Tu Yan.

Although Tu Yan was used to traveling outside in the past, he was not in good health after all. After a few days of traveling all the way from the capital, his face was full of fatigue, and he felt a little dizzy when he got on the boat.They brought an imperial physician with them when they went out. This imperial physician was in his thirties and his surname was Qin. He was the eldest son of the envoy of the imperial hospital.After the doctor's examination, Doctor Xiao Qin said that it was due to overwork and that it would be fine to rest for a few days.

When Tu Yan woke up, there was no one in the room. Through a bamboo curtain, he heard the maidservants frolicking on the deck outside. He vaguely saw someone guarding the door, so he called out.

Unexpectedly, when the curtain was lifted, it was Lin Qingyun who came in.Now on the boat, he is surrounded by close attendants. Except for the boatman, the only men who can be regarded as accompanying are the royal guards and the little Qin imperial physician. There are only household clothes every day, and it is very simple to clean up.And because it's summer, very hot, Lin Qingyun still likes to wear skirts, especially all kinds of gauze skirts, even if there is some steam and wind on the boat.Today she is wearing a dress of celestial water blue light gauze, except for the same color lace on the edge and cuffs of the skirt, there is no embellishment on the whole body, very refreshing.She is wearing a homely bun, a white jade hairpin, plain face, and a pair of red drop earrings swinging leisurely as she walks.

"You are greedy for coolness." Tu Yan saw that she was wearing light clothes, but her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her forehead was slightly sweaty, so she said with a smile, "Are you playing with them again? Be careful not to slip and fall."

Although the weather is hot, the river water is cold. The guards and boatmen like to take a shower in the river water, and the maids also like to soak their hands in the river water to wipe their faces, and they like to play with each other for fun.Staying on the boat has nothing to do, the weather is hot, even Acacia often slacks with her needles and needles, and the maids are illiterate and illiterate, so they can only play around with these things, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.Every time Lin Qingyun was reading a book or drawing a picture, seeing the girls getting excited about playing, she couldn't help but go to the side of the boat to hold water with her hand, it was really cool.

The only unusual person on this boat is Tu Yan, it's not that he's obsessed with cleanliness, it's that he doesn't sweat even though others find it hot in gauze.The life on the boat was very easy for him. He was dressed in summer silk, refreshing and comfortable, and wore a double-breasted cloak every morning and evening.

"How do you feel? Are you still dizzy?" Seeing that he woke up, Lin Qingjun poured a glass of warm water and handed it to him.

Tu Yan took a sip of the drink and replied, "It's better."

While talking, Hong Ling came in with the washing things, Tu Yan didn't allow others to wait on him, he twisted the handkerchief and wiped his face, and Hong Ling tied her hair.Lin Qingyun was not used to seeing the maids serving him to dress and freshen up at first, and it would be fine if someone else did. When he thought that this person was her husband, even if they had nothing to do with them, she always felt a little uncomfortable.Now that she is getting used to it, she is more used to it. After all, even if she has learned to sort it out, the conditions do not allow it, so she doesn't have to be so demanding, so as not to make it more uncomfortable.

As soon as Lvluo went out with the remaining water, Bailu and Xiangsi came in and put the congee and vegetables that they ordered earlier on the table one by one.

"You all go out." Although this boat is big, the space is limited, not to mention that when there are too many people, it will feel hot.Tu Yan sat at the table eating his late lunch, while she leaned against the window with a book and read it.

What she read was "Qingyang County Chronicle".Qingyang County is where Mount Jiuhua, their first stop, is located.Although Jiuhua Mountain is a cover, since it is here, it is worthwhile to visit it by the way.As for the matter of seeking medical treatment from that strange man, neither she nor Tu Yan paid much attention to it.It was because she had golden lotus seeds, and they had been used by Tu Yan, and she knew that Tu Yan would recover in just two or three years.Tu Yan guessed, Kuang's health has improved a lot in the past year, so he is not in a hurry.

After eating silently, Tu Yan rinsed his mouth and came to sit opposite her.

"Although I have never been to Mount Jiuhua, I have gone to Mount Huangshan. I also tasted authentic Anhui cuisine in the villages and towns below the mountain, and listened to a folk Huangmei tune." Tu Yan was talking about the second year of the founding of the mansion. At the age of sixteen, he was disheartened. He traveled to Huangshan Mountain, knowing that his body was not strong enough to support the hard work of climbing the mountain, so he decided to go up for a walk.In the end, he tried his best and stayed in the local area for more than a month, and continued his journey after he had recovered enough energy.

Lin Qingyun didn't know about his experiences during that period of time. He only heard him mention Huangmei Opera, and asked casually: "What kind of opera? Have you heard of "The Match of the Immortals"?"

""Pairing of Immortals"?" Tu Yan thought carefully, and guessed: "But "Dong Yong's Selling One's Body"? I heard such a flower drum opera in Fengyang."

Lin Qingyun understood that "The Companion of Immortals" was probably adapted later, and the reason why he blurted it out just now is that Huangmei's tune is really catchy, and anyone who has heard it can hum a few words.

But Tu Yan chased after her and asked, "You're talking about the fairy match, and you're also talking about the story of Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies?"

"It's a bit different. Tianxian Pei was adapted by later generations. The Jade Emperor and Fu Shanren in it are both big villains. Although it is hateful for these two people to fight mandarin ducks, it is better than Dong Yong in the old story. People who tell stories can really imagine." Lin Qingyun is a woman, and she can look at things from a woman's point of view. When Dong Yong was poor and humble, he was accompanied by a fairy to protect him. Later, the fairy returned to the heaven and sent a son. Dong Yong won the first prize again. , married the daughter of the Fu family, and her life couldn't be more fulfilling.

Tu Yan smiled and said: "It's human nature, otherwise, where would there be so many stories about talented scholars and beautiful ladies in the world?"

Lin Qingjun recalled what Jia's mother said on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the original book, saying that the words of those talented men and beautiful women were all nonsense made by the book editors. Although they meant something else, there was some truth to it.Thinking of Jiamu and Daiyu, it has been seven or eight days since I left Beijing, and now the boat is smooth and idle, so I just wrote a letter.

Putting the book in his hand to Tu Yan, Lin Qingyun took a pen and paper to write a letter.

Tu Yan didn't bother her, but he suddenly heard her humming in a low voice, the tune was somewhat familiar.When Tu Yan looked up, she was still writing the letter, but the tune in her mouth was Huangmei tune, and she couldn't help laughing for a moment.It must be why we were talking about this just now.Pretend to read a book, listen carefully, and vaguely hear a few words: You plow the field and I weave, and I dive to you to water the garden. Although the cold kiln is broken, it can shelter from the wind and rain, and the love of husband and wife is bitter but sweet.

This word is vulgar and straightforward, and it is full of rustic and simple life. I am used to the graceful school with gorgeous rhetoric, so this kind of tone is undoubtedly fresh.

Probably staring too intently, Lin Qingyun raised his head with a feeling in his heart, and met his eyes.The atmosphere was inexplicably quiet for a while, his face flushed suddenly, and he said casually: "Why did the lord spy on me writing a letter to my sister?" He got up and went out in a hurry with the letter.

But Tu Yan sat blankly, and after a long while, he slowly smiled, his eyes were full of tenderness, and the water was truly drowning.

In the past, he only knew that she was special and took her as his confidant. She was the only person in the world who knew his mind better than his parents.It was only today that he discovered that before he had noticed, she was already unconcealable, radiant, charming and charming with every smile and smile.Tu Yan was born in the imperial palace, and he was used to seeing all kinds of beauties since he was a child. Perhaps he admired some, but there was never anyone who made him fall in love.In the words of the Queen and the Eldest Princess, it is because his vision is so high that ordinary people can't look down on him at all.He does have high vision, but it's not that he expects too much from a woman's appearance. A woman's face is withered, and her flowers will eventually fall. For a person with an extremely limited lifespan, appearance doesn't mean much, and he cares more about whether his heart is connected.

After all, God treats him kindly. If you are so good, what more can you ask for.

At this moment, Lin Qingjun was standing on the deck blowing the air, still feeling his face was burning, his heart was beating wildly, and thinking of Tuyan's gaze just now made him feel uncomfortable.After all, she is not really an innocent girl, so she naturally understands the reason for this reaction, after being slightly at a loss, her mind is calm and resolute.

If you don't have confidence in your life, who else can you rely on?They didn't know each other before they were married, but now she doesn't know Tu Yan's nature, and how lucky she is to meet such a person in this world.

"Why is the princess standing on the bow of the boat and blowing the wind? Although it is cool, it is easy to catch cold after blowing for a long time." Bai Lu came up to persuade.

"You're the only one who talks too much." Lin Qingjun scolded with a smile, then turned and went back to the room.

She didn't intend to avoid Tu Yan, but she just ran out just now, so she was not in a hurry to turn back, and besides, the letter was half written, so she hurriedly finished it so that it could be sent out when the ship docked for supplies.As long as her letter to Daiyu is to keep her safe, she will tell Daiyu where she has traveled and what she has seen and heard on the way.

As soon as the letter was written, Bai Ling ran in from the outside: "Princess, I will arrive at Linqing Port in half a day."

"So fast? Isn't there another day?"

"The wind is smooth today, and the boat is going very fast." Bai Ling said with a smile on his face, "It will be evening when we arrive at the port. Will the princess get off the boat to get some air? It is said that the port is very lively."

Before Lin Qingyun could answer, Tu Yan's voice sounded: "I can stay for a day or two, I just said that I want to rest here, just in time to see the relic pagoda."

Bai Ling hurriedly turned around to salute, and then looked at Lin Qingyun with particularly earnest eyes.

"If I don't agree to you, won't I cry to death." Lin Qingyun was helpless. The maids were bored on the boat, and it was difficult to go out. It didn't matter if they stayed for a day or two.

It's just that all the courage he mustered before seems to be gone. Knowing that Tu Yan is looking at him, he doesn't dare to look at him, and secretly thinks that he is worthless.After a lot of mental construction, she finally looked over and saw her eyes smiling and staring lightly, which was clearly normal, but a red cloud rose on her face, and she hurriedly turned around and pretended to look out the window to enjoy the scenery.The girl Bai Ling ran out early to spread the good news, she and Tu Yan were the only two in the room, she wanted to rush out the door uncomfortably, but held back tightly.

Tu Yan held back, but couldn't hold back, and chuckled lightly.

Upon hearing the laughter, Lin Qingyun became more courageous, turned around and said angrily, "What are you laughing at?"

Tu Yan hurriedly kept his voice down, but the bright smile in his eyes couldn't deceive her. In order to prevent her from getting annoyed and turned away, Tu Yan hurriedly made a distraction. "I just got the news that Concubine Xiande is pregnant."

When she heard that it was a serious matter, Lin Qingyun didn't care about those small emotions, and said with a frown: "It's true. I felt weird when I heard that she ordered Jia's family to go to Qingxu Temple for a three-day peace offering. It can be seen that she has always been cautious, and would not make such a big move easily, presumably because of the pregnancy. She is not too young, and she was finally favored by the emperor on New Year's Eve, and now she is finally pregnant. The mood can be imagined. It's just that Jia's family can hold back from publicizing it, so it can be seen that she didn't explain the reason to Jia's family, but Jia's mother is old and mature, so maybe she guessed a bit."

Tu Yan said: "I just said that Jia Yuanchun is intelligent but stupid. He is pregnant but refuses to announce it. Instead, he hides it. If it is said that he is afraid that people will find out about the plot, why bother to make the Jia family go to the funeral ceremony? It’s still in the name of the Xiande Concubine. Who in the capital doesn’t know about this? But anyone with a better eye will have guessed it.”

"I'm afraid she won't be able to give birth to this baby." Lin Qingyun murmured, as if sighing.

Although Jia Yuanchun was not liked by the emperor, the emperor would not do anything to his own flesh and blood.The supporters of the Supreme Emperor are all nobles and nobles, and they always talk about the achievements of Jia Daishan and others, and give favors from time to time. Although Jia Yuanchun is pregnant, the Supreme Emperor will not be very happy, but he will also look at the old department Give me some rewards.Several county kings don't care about multiple brothers who are breastfeeding. Even if those old families are thoughtful, they can't make up for the age gap. Even if they wait for the little prince to grow up, it will take 20 years. What is born is not necessarily a prince, and even a prince may not be raised up.The ones who do not want to see Jia Yuanchun give birth the most are Concubine Zhen Gui and Prince Jing Xiao. If he is really a little prince, it will directly affect the vital interests of the two of them.Furthermore, Jia Yuanchun has been in the palace for many years, no matter how cautious and low-key and kind, after all, those concubines will make her feel better if they get in the way of others.

Tu Yan felt this more deeply than she did: "There are so many princes and princesses who died in the palace, those who had sequenced teeth, those who didn't, and even those who died before they were born."

Back then, the empress also had a miscarriage and her body was injured, which made it impossible for the empress to come out after Tu Yan.In the battle between the women in the harem, there is no sword, light or sword, but it can kill people invisible.

That night, when the big ship docked at Linqing Port, Tu Yan had sent someone to the nearby inn to clean up the courtyard, and brought Lin Qingyun to stay at the inn.The county magistrate of Linqing who heard the news came to welcome him, and ordered people to clean up the best private garden in the area, and he did not forget to send people to report it to the seal, but when he arrived at the post station, he was turned away.

Eunuch Le had already received Tu Yan's order, and said to the county magistrate, "Lord Lao County Magistrate has just run, the prince is temporarily docking this time, because he is exhausted by boat, so he came ashore to evacuate, and he does not want to disturb the local officials and people. At that time, the prince and concubine had already rested, and the county magistrate was gone, the prince said, the county magistrate has made great achievements in governing, the port here is busy and orderly, and Tianjin is not allowed to be noisy."

The county magistrate didn't expect to see Prince Chun in person, but after hearing the praise from the prince, he immediately became overjoyed, and even called "the prince's ridiculous praise".After all, he didn't dare to disturb Wang Jia, so he saluted at the gate of the courtyard and retreated.Turning around, I found the Yi Cheng who came to the post station. He didn't dare to inquire about the meal, lodging and rest of the prince and others at will.

Yicheng naturally promised.

At this time, Tu Yan and Lin Qingyun, who claimed to have rested, dressed up as ordinary wealthy businessmen and husbands, and came out from the back door of the inn with the first-class bodyguard Gao Yang Li Li.

This time going out, although it is necessary to go lightly and easily, there are still a lot of people.Lin Qingjun brought four servant girls, Zhang Bao, and Xiao Baozi, and Tu Yan brought Hong Ling Luluo, Eunuch Le, and Xiao Xiazi by his side. In addition, including Gao Yang Li Li, there were eight guards accompanying him.The little Qin imperial doctor was given by the emperor, and there are nineteen people in total, plus boxes and cages to salute, even if you take the boat, you don’t think there are too many people. Once you go overland, you need two or three chariots and horses just to pull the salute.

Originally, Lin Qingyun didn't intend to bring these people with him, but Tu Yan said that because of his health, he couldn't save them all the way. Since she couldn't save it, she might as well bring two more people. The ones I bought were not easy to use.

She didn't really need that much, but the two Bailing Thrush had great expectations, and she really couldn't bear to refuse.If it wasn't for other things this time, and Daiyu was engaged again, she would have wanted to bring Daiyu out.

At this moment, Bai Ling and the others went shopping together, and Lin Qingjun and Tu Yan were also at ease.

Because it is facing the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, the port is not only prosperous and busy, but also the food brings together the flavors of the north and the south, and you can almost eat different snacks from all over the country in the street market from beginning to end.In the lively night market, Lin Qingyun was in a trance for several times, as if he had returned to the modern age.When she came out, she specially put a lot of loose silver and copper coins in a money bag. She tasted a bowl of tofu nao for a while, and ate a siu mai for a while. , tonight was actually the time when she ate happily.

"Eat less, eat too much at night and be careful not to accumulate food." Tu Yan just tasted a piece of siu mai with what she ordered, and the rest didn't eat anything else, just paid the bill with the money bag in his hand.Tu Yan's body has poor immunity, so he must pay more attention to hygiene, and try to avoid touching things in the streets and alleys outside.

"It's true that I ate too much, let's go to the teahouse and sit down." Feeling lost for a while, Lin Qingyun rubbed her stomach, then realized that her behavior was indecent and withdrew her hand.

Tu Yan couldn't help being amused, went into the teahouse, and ordered her a cup of Pu'er to help her digest food.

The two sat by the window on the second floor, watching the people coming and going in the night market, and hearing the hawkers' yelling endlessly.Lin Qingjun saw Bailing dragging the thrush at a glance, the two of them were like happy rabbits lurking in the crowd, and there were red silk and white egrets in twos and threes. For safety, they were accompanied by postmen in ordinary clothes.People who often do business here don't know the people in the station, and when they see them, they don't dare to easily think of Bailu and others.

Lin Qingjun sighed for a while: "Only Linqing Port is like this. Quanzhou and other places have business exchanges with thirty or forty foreign countries. What a grand scene."

Tu Yan had seen it before, and sighed similarly: "It's really spectacular! Every day, hundreds of merchant ships come and go, hundreds of laborers gather in groups, and the number of moving goods is almost non-stop from morning till night."

Qingyun asked: "Does the imperial court have merchant ships going out to sea for trade?"

Tu Yan looked at her first, then came to understand and shook his head: "Officials don't compete with the people for profit, let alone the court. Moreover, the court has always held disputes over overseas trade, so the Department of Shipping has only set up three offices. The number of quotations issued during the reign was once reduced to [-], and the sea was even banned. Because of the rampant Japanese pirates and bandits, the sea was not calm. Because of trade, there was a lot of chaos along the coast, and the imperial court did not always pay attention to it. Gotta come."

"How about the navy?" Qingyun asked again.

"It's not as good as the former dynasty." The former dynasty that Tu Yan said was the court before their Tu family won the world.Today's imperial court does not pay much attention to navy, and the cost here has been reduced again and again. Back then, due to the ban on seas, almost all independent navy were banned.Because Tu Yan has personally walked, seen, and felt it, and has never participated in politics, he can view the situation from the perspective of a bystander, allowing him to glimpse the hidden crisis from the prosperity of ocean trade.

Seeing that he was unhappy for a while, Lin Qingyun stopped mentioning this matter.

The next day, the two went to see the relic pagoda, Wuyangsong, and visited Daning Temple. It was already late when they came back, and they went to bed after washing up.Turning around in the morning, I packed my things and prepared to board the boat to continue south, but before sailing, I received a letter from Daiyu.The letter was sent from the post station, and it almost passed by, so I had to go to the next port and wait.

Lin Qingyun opened the letter and read it after the boat left the shore and the boat was running smoothly.

Seeing her frowning, Tu Yan couldn't help laughing: "What did Miss Lin say, you have such an expression?"

Lin Qingyun sighed with a smile: "It's nothing important, it's just a trivial matter of the parents. My sister mentioned one thing in the letter. Baoyu of Jia's family was beaten, and he was beaten severely by his father, and he lay there for several days. stand up."

"Is there such a thing? Didn't Jia Baoyu get seriously ill only in March? Besides, the Jia family is like a phoenix egg, and Jia Zheng is willing to do it? The old lady at home didn't stop him?" Tu Yan asked in a sentence. on point.

Lin Qingyun sighed again: "How should I put it, Jia Baoyu was born to be close to girls. Although he didn't have those embarrassing thoughts in his heart, he couldn't hold back certain actions and words that were considered frivolous in the eyes of others. He When he was born, he caught Zhou, but he caught rouge and gouache, which made Jia Zheng extremely displeased. Later, it came true. He stayed in the inner house all day long and hated reading. He also said that the person who read was Lu Bei. Are you annoyed?"

"Why are you being beaten this time?"

"Molested the maidservant."
