The Zheng system stipulates that the prince who leaves the palace can enter the palace on the day of rest and mother and son to get together, enter the palace at the end of the day, and leave the palace at the end of noon, and the rules are very strict. On the morning of April 31, King Luo Huai rushed into the palace with a pair of newly purchased white parrots.

Yuming Palace, Liu Guifei was waiting for Shi Fangzhen to eat breakfast, after contracting the disease last year, the imperial doctor prescribed a medicinal diet for the Son of Heaven - Shenling porridge, Liu Guifei used a spoon to gently stir the porridge and cool, and sent it to Shi Fangzhen.

Shi Chongren put the birdcage on the ground, knelt down and snorted, and said with a smile: "Erchen wishes my father and mother a healthy body." ”

Shi Fangzhen glanced at him and said, "Did you bring two birds this time to honor your mother, what kind of bird is this, the hair on the head looks like a hat, 'a learned person', hahahaha." Shi Fangzhen laughed happily at his witticism.

"Father, this is the cockatiel of Qianzhou Miao Village, Father, you see, this bird has white feathers, red eyes, yellow crown, and a round red spot on the cheek under the eye, which is very beautiful, and the mother concubine will definitely like it." Shi Chongren lifted the birdcage and pointed excitedly.

Liu Guifei glanced at her son lovingly, but said coldly: "I know that I know to tease birds and insects, and I don't do my job, I don't want your birds, you take your baby back." ”

Shi Fangzhen looked at his embarrassed son and said with a smile: "Concubine Ai is too harsh, Ren'er is also filial, I'm afraid that you will be lonely in the palace, come and take the bird and hang it under the corridor." Ren'er get up, eat or not, and accompany me and your mother to eat with the uneaten meal. ”

Shi Chongren stood up quickly and said with a smile: "When I came, I ate two pieces of dim sum, and I will be hungry again, my father has an order, and my son obeys his order." Saying that, sitting down on Shi Fangzhen's left side, Liu Guifei scooped a bowl of rice porridge for her son, and advised: "It's still hot, wait until it's cold before drinking, if you're hungry, peel an egg and eat it first." ”

Shi Fangzhen drank the porridge slowly, and asked casually: "Today, Jiang Anyi went out of the city to Jiangzhou to clean up the official field, do you know?" ”

"Huh?"

Shi Fangzhen was a little displeased, put down the spoon and wiped his mouth with a towel, and said: "Although you have no intention of ruling the government, but I let you be the supervisor of the Qingtian Division, you have to use dim sum, I don't want the civil and military ministers to talk behind my back that I gave birth to a waste son who can only have fun." ”

Shi Chongren said with a hippie smile: "Father, the nine sons of the dragon are different, which means that you are the reincarnation of the real dragon, you don't know what kind of character the son is, it is enough for the Qingtian Division to have Master Jiang, and it will only be bad for the son to mix it in." Erchen understood what his father meant, and he would never shrink back when it was time to carry the bag. ”

Liu Guifei didn't interject and drank the porridge quietly. Shi Fangzhen glanced at Shi Chongren seriously, nodded and concentrated on drinking the porridge.

"Father, when will Lord Jiang leave Beijing?" Shi Chongren swallowed the egg in his mouth, rolled his eyes and asked.

"What, you, the overseer, want to send it? It should be in the middle of the hour. Shi Fangzhen looked at his son with a light smile.

Shi Chongren said with a straight face: "My father just taught me that the sons are indeed too slack, and as the supervisor of the Qingtian Division, they ignore the matter of cleaning up the official fields, so that the ministers will doubt their father, and the sons and daughters will be guilty." Therefore, the sons asked their father to follow Lord Jiang to go to Jiangzhou to check the official fields, and by the way, they learned some political methods from Lord Jiang and made some political achievements to win glory for their father. ”

Shi Fangzhen had a playful smile on his face, and Liu Guifei lowered her face and reprimanded: "National affairs are not tolerated."

Child's play, you should honestly stay in Beijing and play with your insects and birds, you followed Master Jiang to Jiangzhou just to have fun around, it will only cause trouble to Lord Jiang, no. ”

"It's better to read 10,000 volumes than to travel 10,000 miles, Ren'er goes to see the people, it's a good thing, I'm accurate." Shi Fangzhen said slowly: "However, I said ugly things in the front, you are not allowed to leave with Jiang Anyi, you are not allowed to put on the prince's shelf, and you are not allowed to influence Jiang Anyi to run errands, and when you come back, you will write a detailed report of this trip to me, and I will investigate the harvest of your trip......"

Shi Fangzhen said a lot of prohibitions and requirements, Shi Chongren's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, as long as he can get out of Beijing, everything is easy to say. Liu Guifei chuckled and said: "Long live, you see that Ren'er's heart has already flown to the palace, no matter how much you say, it is useless." ”

Shi Fangzhen waved his hand angrily and said, "Get out, Liu Weiguo, you let a few masters of the Long Wei faction follow him at all times, and don't allow him to act indiscriminately." ”

Shi Chongren jumped up, gave a deep salute to Shi Fangzhen and Liu Guifei, and ran out of the hall with a jump, and the young man's temperament was undoubtedly revealed. Behind her, Liu Guifei's eyes were full of concern, love, and hidden worries.

Rushing back to the house, Shi Chongren asked people to simply pack their bags, Mr. Liu must bring them when he goes out, bring two Longwei masters in the house, and the Longwei Mansion sent six more, and ten people quickly whipped out of Mingdemen to chase Jiang Anyi.

When Jiang Anyi learned that King Luo Huai was going to go to Jiangzhou to clean up the official fields with him, his head was as big as a bucket and his heart was full of sorrow. He has an understanding of what kind of goods this master is, and his task to go to Jiangzhou is to play with the little prince, and the long live master will really give himself a problem. But the holy order was difficult to disobey, and Jiang Anyi could only accept it with a bitter face.

Shi Chongren smiled happily: "Lord Jiang, my father let Xiao Wang see the sufferings of the people, and he will report in detail when he goes back. ”

Jiang Anyi looked at King Luo Huai, who was dancing, and said in a deep voice: "Long live the decree, the minister does not dare to disobey it, but the prince must obey Jiang's arrangement along the way, otherwise Jiang would rather resist the decree and return to Beijing than dare to take the prince to Jiangzhou." Jiang Anyi knew that he was very kind to himself, but if King Luo Huai made a mistake, the knife that cut off his head would never hesitate at all.

Shi Chongren said nonchalantly: "Okay, okay, everything depends on you." Lord Jiang, it should be the long bridge if you go further, 'farewell every year, the wind and snow on the long bridge', the lonely king has long been fascinated, but unfortunately it is April, and there is no snow to be seen. Master Jiang, you are a word immortal, or you should also write the poems of the first Changqiao and let future generations recite them. ”

Leaving the capital, Shi Chongren turned into a cheerful bird, "chirping" to vent happiness, Zhuang Songwei followed behind him, raised his sleeves to cover the flying dust, his eyes were ruddy and tearful, the little prince was so old or the first time he left the capital, you can imagine how happy the fourteen-year-old boy was.

After spending most of the hour on the long bridge, the team set off again, Jiang Anyi felt the difficulty of this trip, the little prince saw the pedestrian's attire and asked about it, saw the village to stop for a while, pointed to the distant mountain and asked what the mountain was, and saw the food on the roadside stall to taste it.

Jiang Anyi couldn't bear the pain, and pretended to discuss the matter with the Xiang brothers to avoid it, and soon Mr. Zhuang also felt Jiang Anyi's pain. As a gentleman who solved doubts, Luo Huaiwang's questions were answered by him, and he answered questions and answers all the way

When Shen Zheng stayed in the post station, Zhuang Songwei was already with a chapped mouth and a hoarse voice, and when he saw that the herbal tea on the table didn't care about Sven, he poured it in one breath.

With the addition of King Luohuai, to ensure safety, the team marched very slowly, and every day Chen Zheng set off and Shen Zheng checked into the post station, walking at most eighty miles a day. Jiang Anyi calculated that it would take 20 days to travel at this rate, a month to check in Jiangzhou, and it was estimated that he would not be able to return to Beijing until July. June 22 is Tong'er's birthday, and when she left Beijing, she promised her to rush back to celebrate her birthday, and I was afraid that she would break her promise.

From the capital to Jiangzhou, cross the Huanyang River through Fuzhou to reach Chuzhou, and then cross the upper left corner of Chuzhou to enter Jiangzhou, and then go more than 100 miles to the end of the trip Jiangzhou capital Xiangning Mansion, the whole journey is more than 600 miles.

To ensure the safety of King Luohuai, Chen Zheng departed every day, and Shen Zheng stayed at the post station, and he could only walk sixty or seventy miles a day. Jiang Anyi calculated the distance in his heart, it will take less than twenty days to go back and forth, and it will take at least a month to check in Jiangzhou, Yun Jing's birthday is the fifth day of the seventh month, and he promised her to rush back, and he doesn't know if he will break his promise.

On the third day of the fifth month, at noon, cross the Hengyang River. Standing on the bow of the boat and looking at the turbid current, Shi Chongren was rarely silent, the boat rose and fell in the rushing and roaring river, and the splashing waves were like broken jade and snow, wetting Shi Chongren's clothes. Jiang Anyi and Zhuang Songwei stood beside him on the left and right, Zhuang Songwei felt dizzy, and the majestic scene in front of him was thrilling, and he was shaky. Jiang Anyi on the side looked calm, and his attention was all on Shi Chongren, for fear that King Luo Huai would accidentally fall into the water for a while.

In the turbulence, the ship finally landed safely, Zhuang Songwei breathed a sigh of relief, and recited "Amitabha" in his heart, both legs were a little trembling, and he had to sit down ugly if he didn't dock again. Shi Chongren seemed to wake up from a deep sleep, smiled at the Huanyang River behind him, turned his head sideways to Jiang Anyi and said: "The poem says: Who is Heguang?" A reed sails, only today to appreciate. On this magnificent occasion, how can there be no poems, Xiao Wang asked Lord Jiang to remember the poems, Xiao Wang as a hitter as a song, and drums to sing. ”

The sun shone on Shi Chongren's young face, the long hair on the sideburns sang and danced in the river breeze, the young man was proud, and his eyes were as clear as water, full of expectation. Jiang Anyi was infected by the pride of the young man, looked at the gold diggers on the bank of the Huan River, and chanted loudly: "Jiuqu Huanyang is thousands of miles of sand, and the waves are blowing from the end of the world." Now go straight to the Milky Way and go to the home of the morning glory weaver girl. ”

The sound contained the true qi of Yuan Xuan, high and agitated, and the huge sound of the waves could not be suppressed, echoing in the sky over the Huanyang River. Shi Chongren sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat, using his hand as a mallet, and sang loudly on the board: "Jiuquhuan River Wanli Sha......"

The young man's voice was clear and high-pitched, like a lark flying through the waves, fearless and indomitable. Zhuang Songwei looked at the proud King Luo Huai, and there was a passion in his heart.

On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, Hu Lizhen, the assassin of Chuzhou (Duan Cizong was transferred to the secretary of the ministry, and Hu Lizhen of Lingzhou was replaced) rushed to Xiuyun County, where King Luohuai settled, and spent the Duanyang Festival with the little prince, eating brown seeds, drinking realgar wine, tying five-color silk threads, wearing sachets, putting paper kites, and watching dragon boat races, Shi Chongren was very happy.

Just when Shi Chongren and others were celebrating the season of the Duanyang Festival, a fast horse galloped into the Leishen Mountain in Jinglin County, Qizhou, and the Wind and Thunder Gate was located on the mountain.

Note: The poem is "Waves and Sands" made by Tang Liu Yuxi, "Now go straight to the Milky Way" comes from Zhang Qian's allusion to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looking for the source of the river.
