Wang Yan was wearing a Taoist robe, a jade pendant on his waist, a net scarf on his head, and a folding fan in his hand to walk in front, feeling very happy, sighing that Nanjing is Nanjing, worthy of being the southern capital of the Ming Dynasty, and it is really a place of flowers.

The scholar in the back, Ah Chen, was said by Wang Yan, and walked behind with the bookcase on his back, his head did not turn, but his eyes still couldn't help but glance at both sides of the market, and every time he saw a sedan chair falling, and a beautiful and light lady came out of it, he couldn't help but take a look at it.

Wang Yan walked fast in front, and when Ah Chen saw that he was being left behind, he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and while trotting to catch up, he shouted urgently: "Childe, wait for me!" ”

In this way, the two walked for a morning, and saw a meandering and sparkling river appear in the distance, like a jade belt around the ancient stone city, countless painting boat cruise ships stopped on the shore, along the coast are weeping willows, attics, pavilions, stone bridges on the river, stacked beam arches one after another, once it is night, the pavilions on both sides of the bank and the river painting boat cruise ships are lit together, it must be a wonderful picture.

Wang Yan saw the scene in the distance, flicked the folding fan excitedly into his hand, turned back to the panting Ah Chen and said, "Do you know where this is?" ”

Wang Yan didn't bring anything, everything was carried by Ah Chen. At first, Wang Yan walked slowly, Ah Chen still had the kung fu to watch while walking, and when Wang Yan walked faster and faster, Ah Chen only cared about catching up, and had no time to look around.

At this time, Wang Yan suddenly asked him, and Ah Chen, who was hurrying with his head down, raised his head, and a dark blue city wall, as if towering into the clouds, was in front of him.

"Childe, it's time to go to Nanjing Neiguo." Ah Chen sighed for a while, "This city wall is really high!" ”

Wang Yan slapped him on the head with a fan, "Who told you to see the city wall, I don't know if it's Nei Guo?" I'm asking you where is this river? ”

"I don't know~" Ah Chen touched his head.

"Qinhuai River, here is the Qinhuai River with a makeup building near the water, and every family is taking pictures of Chanjuan!" Wang Yan said with a look of fascination: "It is said that the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River is the most charming until the evening. There is the breath of Qinhuai Bayan, the lights shine on the river at night, and the Qinhuai River should be delicate~"

Wang Yanzheng said excitedly, but saw Ah Chen with a blank face when he heard it, what Bayan, what breath, what Qinhuai River is also delicate, how can this river be delicate? Childe is afraid that it is spring.

"Hmph, play the piano to the cow!" Wang Yan was a little unhappy, slapped him again, and then said, "Let's go, go to the city and find a store to live in." ”

At the moment, the two walked across a white stone bridge, entered the city from the Sanshan Gate, and as soon as they entered the city, the streets were full of flags on both sides, all kinds of shops, coat shops, jewelry shops, porcelain, medicine shops, stationery, inns, restaurants, all kinds of them, not lost to the Bianliang City at all.

In addition to the shops along the street, there are also fortune tellers, candy pinchers, sales of strong pills, and various grocery stalls on the street, covering everything.

Wang Yan and Ah Chen walked in the endless crowd of people, there were merry scholars like him shaking folding fans on cold days, there were Yingtianfu officials wearing high hats and soap boots, and patrolling the streets with short sticks, there were officials sitting in sedan chairs, there were noble sons in fresh clothes and angry horses, there were women who went to shops, and there were vendors who led mules and horses to buy goods.

If you don't think about the erosive state affairs in the north, this picture is enough to move people to tears, and the breath of life is rushing to your face.

Wang Yan and Ah Chen found an inn, stayed first, and then found a restaurant to have a good meal. Ah Chen sighed for a while, Nanjing is Nanjing, whether it is living or eating, it is not comparable to Changsha.

The city of Nanjing is prosperous with commerce, all kinds of shops are lined up, and looking at the various flags that the merchants on the street come up with, you will know that the pressure of competition is great, and the businessmen naturally have to do things well in order to survive in the competition.

After Wang Yan was full of wine and food, he found a guide and led him and Ah Chen to walk around the city of Nanjing, go to the Gongyuan, Guozijian, Taiping Street, and visit the scenery of Nanjing.

When it was dusk, Wang Yan and Ah Chen returned to the door of the inn, and Wang Yan immediately said, "You go back to rest, and I'll go shopping again." ”

Ah Chen looked up at the sky, "Childe, the sun is about to set, we have to hurry tomorrow, should we rest early." ”

"If you don't leave tomorrow, we will stay in Nanjing for three days, you don't care about me!" Wang Yan was a little impatient.

"If you don't hurry, then the boy should take me with you." Ah Chen was overjoyed to hear it, and he also liked Nanjing City very much.

Wang Yan saw that he was not interested, and couldn't help glaring at him, "I'll go to the Qinhuai River, where can you go?" ”

Ah Chen reacted, and his face suddenly realized, "Oh, the son didn't wait for the eldest son and the third son, and hurried to Nanjing to go to the prostitute." ”

Wang Yan's face turned red, he took out seventy or eighty copper coins from his arms, stuffed them into Ah Chen's hand, and said with a straight face: "You go to find a nearby wine shop to listen to the storytelling, and then buy some delicious food, I just go to see and understand, I can't tell my brother about this, you know?" ”

Ah Cheng put the copper coin into his arms, and said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, son, my mouth is the strictest, and I won't tell anyone, nor will I tell the lord and madam, you come back early." ”

Wang Yan nodded with satisfaction, and then he was alone, and his steps went straight to the bank of the Qinhuai River. He has been studying with his uncle since he was a child, as well as his brother Wang Fuzhi, and the two of them discipline him very strictly.

Wang Yan came to the Qinhuai River, looked at the lights on both sides of the river, and the beautiful singing in the river painting boat, and the whole person was immediately intoxicated by the atmosphere created by the red light and green shadow.

He got on a painting boat, and soon met a girl, to say that Wang Yan was also twenty years old, and should have started a family a long time ago, but because he was concentrating on studying, he had been delayed, and the girl's hand had not been touched so far.

The sister on the Qinhuai River, which one is not reading countless people, has been happy for a long time, plays the pipa, sings a small song, plucks a few times in soft words, and rubs it intentionally or unintentionally, which suddenly makes Wang Yan, who has never seen the world, congested and psychedelic.

Wang Yan said to Ah Chen that he would only stay for two or three days, but as a result, he stayed for half a month, and the entanglement on his body was quickly spent, but Wang Yan was still reluctant to leave and wanted to accompany his double girl.

Wang Yan, who has never tasted love, was fascinated by both of them.

As soon as he entered the cabin, he saw a pair of thin eyebrows, faint red lips, and a gentle girl was already waiting for him, and set a table of wine and food for him.

"Shuangshuang prepared wine and food for Childe, and specially practiced it for Childe!" The petite and lovely girl raised her glass.

Wang Yan was slightly stunned and said, "Shuangshuang is this?" ”

"Childe is going to Beijing to catch the exam this time, and both of them can't delay Childe's future." The tears of the two girls came as soon as they said it, and their beautiful eyes were instantly full of parting tears.

When Wang Yan saw it, his heart was broken, he thought of the imperial examination, and his heart was moved.

Shuangshuang girl got into her arms, and said that it didn't matter if she was famous or not, and she just hoped that her son would return as soon as possible.

Wang Yan spent the night in the painting boat, and returned to the inn early in the morning, and found Ah Chen huddled outside the inn alone, with the bookbox and salute aside, it turned out that he had no money to pay the rent and had been kicked out.

At this time, Wang Yan really couldn't stay in Nanjing, the problem was that he was entangled and spent, and it became a problem to enter Beijing to catch the exam.

At dusk, by the Qinhuai River, Wang Yan led Ah Chen to the vicinity of Shuangshuang's girl's flower boat, ready to find Shuangshuang to borrow some silver for expenses on the road.

At this time, he came to the shore, and saw a man in a brocade robe, holding his beloved Shuangshuang, flirting and scolding into the painting boat~
