Governor Lin's boat went down the river and arrived at the official wharf of Huating County when it was dark.

The docks are brightly lit and heavily guarded.

The prefect of Songjiang, Zhen Zhenji, together with Zheng Yue, the magistrate of Huating, and sent a letter to Shi Leqing, Xu Fan, Shang Baoqing, Xu Ying and other Songjiang officials, who had been waiting at the dock for nearly an hour.

Looking at the double-decker official ship slowly approaching the shore, Xu Ying, who had not healed from the sore, snorted unpleasantly.

"It's enough, let's wait so long."

Xu Fan, who had just recovered from the stick sores, was also very unhappy, this Lin Run was just a knife in his father's hand at the beginning, but now he has to wait so long.

Don't you know that Lao Tzu's legs and feet are not good?

However, after being drunk by the old man, Xu Fan's temper has been restrained a lot. He still had a smile on his face, and followed the prefect to make a deep impression on Governor Lin.

"Everyone, hurry up and excuse me." Lin Runlang laughed and walked off the boat, the evening breeze was refreshing, and he added an ink-colored brocade cloak to the crimson official robe, even in the night, it was still so outstanding.

"This hospital has been delayed in Kunshan, so the prefect and Lord Xu have been waiting for a long time."

"Zhongcheng is serious, you have worked hard for the ten mansions in the south of the Yangtze River, day and night, what are we going to do if we wait a while?" Zhen Zhenji is also an old sycophant.

"Yes, Zhongcheng can come to inspect, which is a blessing for the people of Songjiang." Xu Fan smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Lin Run:

"My father also specially prepared a little wine in the cold house, waiting to wash the dust for Zhongcheng."

"Then it's better to be respectful than to be smart." Lin Run happily got into the sedan chair, Xu Fan and others also got into their respective sedan chairs, and the team marched towards the retreat garden in the east of the city.

The city has long been a loess mat, driving out idlers. Minzhuang, who wore the blue cloth uniform of Qingyishui Songjiang, took three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and lined up from the dock to the retreat garden.

Lin Run lifted the sedan curtain and couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the pomp and circumstance of the Songjiang Mansion outside.

He has a clear heart, Zhen Zhenji's gang is so exaggerated, it is one thing to please himself, and more importantly, it is more important to prevent Diao people from stopping the sedan chair on the street to complain.

Su Song Diao Min was already a good lawsuit, but now that Beppu has been cleared, only Songjiang has not moved for a long time, and the people must be holding back the fire in their hearts. If Zhen Zhenji doesn't guard it strictly, it will be really ugly.

In a moment of thought, the sedan chair arrived outside a luxurious garden. The gate illuminated by lanterns and torches was as bright as day.

Xu Ge Lao, who was dressed in a Taoist robe and a square scarf, was standing in the middle of the pair of big stone lions with a smile and a smile, greeting Lin Run's head.

"Yuan Weng, Jinling has been away for a few months, and I am very worried about my late life, I don't know if my body and bones are very good?" Lin Run hurriedly got off the sedan chair and rushed forward to perform the gift of the juniors.

"Oh haha." Xu Jie helped Lin Run up with a smile and said, "Thanks to Zhongcheng's blessing, the old man has been feeling much better recently." ”

After speaking, he took Lin Run's hand and walked into the park with him.

I saw that the carefully pruned courtyard trees in the garden were hung with various colored lanterns made of yarn and silk; In the hole of the Taihu stone rockery, there are also all kinds of quaint incense burners.

Cigarettes are curling, colorful, lights everywhere, music is noisy from time to time, endless peaceful weather, endless wealth and romance.

"This is what they deliberately made to welcome Zhongcheng, on weekdays, the garden is black and rumbling, but the old decay is stained with Zhongcheng." Xu Ge Lao explained with a smile:

"In my garden, except for the first floor of the three halls, there are some bamboo fences, thatched pavilions, and thatched halls. It's about nature and wildness, and it doesn't match these delicate things. ”

"Yuan Weng has worked hard for the country for half his life, and he should not be too frugal on weekdays." Lin Run also persuaded Xu Ge in turn.

Everyone followed the winding path of the light and grace, walked in the "simple and natural" "humble house" of Xu Ge Lao, and came to the "Xianyun Hall" located in the middle of the garden.

At the door of the brightly lit building, there is still a pair of sandalwood couplets, which says:

'Very refreshing and refreshing in summer and autumn, a piece of idle clouds and far away from the sky. ’

Walking into the Xianyun Hall, I saw a total of 36 crystal glass lamps hanging on the beams everywhere, and several lamps were hung on each tree, all of which were made of various colored glass, all of which were exquisitely shaped.

Two or three hundred glass lamps are lit together like silver flowers and snow waves, and the lamps compete for brilliance up and down, which is really like the glass world, the treasure of the Buddha.

As for the exquisite bonsai lamps and bead curtains embroidered in various parts of the hall, they are also all ingenious furnishings, just like a painting.

In the babbling and gentle Kunshan dialect, the delicate maid with a ring of tinkling walks through the room with various trays in her hands, adding delicacies and wines to the guests' tables.

After the guest of honor was seated, the prefect of the heart gave a welcome speech, and then everyone saluted the health and longevity of Xu Ge, and the banquet officially began.

Songjiang people don't discourage drinking, and after several leading figures toasted Lin Zhongcheng, everyone went to their own devices.

Xu Jie and Lin Run sat together and chatted very speculatively.

The two have a deep relationship, and the greatest achievement of Xu Ge's life is 'strict', which can be described as 'born in Zou Yinglong and completed in Lin Run'. ’

After Yan Shifan was impeached and overthrown by Zou Yinglong, he was supposed to be in Hainan. But he and his comrade Luo Longwen did not go to the garrison at all, but wandered around the Jiangnan area of Jiangxi, recruiting Jiangyang bandits in the name of buying a house, intending to flee to the sea and establish a foundation overseas like Wang Zhi.

But the plot of the two was discovered by Lin Run, who was patrolling Jiangnan, and immediately went to the court to warn him. In the name of the emperor, Xu Ge Lao secretly ordered Lin Run to arrest the two and send them to Jingshi.

At that time, Yan Shifan had recruited more than 4,000 warriors. In order to avoid forcing him to a dead end, the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, Lin Run sent people to keep an eye on Yan Shifan, and deliberately leaked the news to Yan Shifan's son, Yan Shaoting, who was the Jinyi Wei Qianhu at the time.

Yan Shaoting didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly passed the news to Yan Shifan. Yan Shifan really didn't dare to be tough as he expected, and chose to abscond to avoid the wind, but was captured by Lin Run halfway.

Luo Longwen fled to Wuzhou and was also arrested by Lin Run.

The events of that year are now just a wine table story, but Xu Jie and Lin Run, the two witnesses, still remember the tension and worry at that time.

At that time, the Jiangnan Rebellion was initially decided, and the ghosts, snakes, and gods were in vogue, and the slightest carelessness in handling it would cause chaos, or let Yan Shifan flee to the sea and become a more terrible pirate leader than Wang Zhi......

No matter what the result is, it is something that Xu Ge Lao and Lin Run can't bear.

Recalling the past, Xu Jie couldn't help but praise: "Ruoyu was only in his early thirties at the time, he was really a young man and an old man, and he was full of guts!" ”

When Lin Run heard this, the figure of the fifteen-year-old boy appeared in his heart, and he secretly said that was the real young man......

"Isn't it relying on Yuan Weng's full support?" He smiled humbly: "Otherwise, if you lend me courage, you won't dare to take risks." ”

"Fortunately, there is no danger, and Yan Luo and the others were successfully escorted into Beijing, which also achieved your Lin Ruoyu's reputation in history." Xu Ge Lao laughed, touched the cup with Lin Run, and said with a smile after drinking it all:

"After returning to my hometown this time, it is really a great pleasure to be able to drink and talk with Ruoyu again."

"Exactly." Lin Run put down the wine cup, smiled slightly, and said, "In addition to visiting Yuanfu, I also have a matter to discuss. ”
