mountain and river drinker

, if you are tired, don't pinch me, I call Zhaoyu, you will replace him and no one will replace me. "

"I slept for a while, and I wasn't sleepy, so why bother him." Zhou Hanzhi went out to move the stool, supported his head with one hand, and chatted with Qin Ronggu.

"In my opinion, for such a big incident, dismissal is the second priority, and reformation is the first. If you want to reform, you should make the system from the land where the salt is boiled, find out how many private stoves are there, and start from the original private dealer's house. All the money was collected. Firstly, the official salt-making work can be discarded, and secondly, redundant officials can be abolished. The saved silver can be used to collect privately-made salt, and it is also a good thing to give private traders some livelihood. Finally, choose Honest officials and good ministers, how can we use severe punishments to show our majesty."

After Qin Ronggu finished speaking, he sighed and stood up, "Forget it, Hanzhi will accompany me to the yard for a walk."

"If you are the emperor, don't forget what you were thinking tonight." Zhou Hanzhi and him stepped out of the house, the moonlight was shining brightly, and the courtyard was as white as frost.

"If there is a day when I sit alone in the empty palace and look up at the bright light outside the window, I will never forget my compassion for the people, and I will never forget you by my side."

"it is good."

Then one day, Qin Ronggu sat in the empty palace, and the people around him were still Zhao Yu.But when he looked up at the moon, he did not forget the world, but fell in lovesickness.

Longan core

Zheng Yan returned to the capital from Yuanzhou, and he hadn't seen him for dozens of days, but when he came back, he lost a lot of weight and spoke less.

Mother Zheng asked him to bring fresh longan from Yuanzhou, Zhou Hanzhi picked him up at the gate of the city, and Zheng Yan gave him a lot for him to take back.

"Xianyan, do you miss me when I'm gone?" Zheng Yan got off the horse and walked back side by side with Zhou Hanzhi.

"Think about it, I think it's really quiet after you leave."

Zheng Yan saw that he was about to speak, Zhou Hanzhi continued, "But I still like having you leaning against the locust tree."

"That's about the same. I have traveled all the way, and tomorrow I will go to the Linzhi Pavilion to share a share of the longan. I am not busy working as a laborer. You can go out with me at night. When I come back, I feel that everything is unfamiliar." Zheng Yan walked down the road absent-mindedly with his head down, Zhou Hanzhi gave him a hand.

"In the past, when I was away from the capital for a few months, I didn't feel bad when I came back." He continued, "Xianyan, thank you for coming to pick me up."

"You should also thank Mr. Dong, he has something to do today, otherwise he would come to see you and tease you a few words, Mr. Dong often talks about you on weekdays."

"You are different from them." Zheng Yan sighed, and then changed into his usual relaxed posture, "I don't want to talk about what is there and what is not, I am only sad that I am so old, and I can't get a wife recently even if I am filial."

"..."

Zhou Hanzhi was quiet for a while and asked him: "Have you thought about where you are going tonight?"

"It's alright to go to Qingsi Lake, you go back and make an agreement with Master Zhou, and come directly to the lake after eating."

Zhou Hanzhi has no reason to refuse to go, the empty water is fresh and clear, Qingsi Lake and lotus, he can't forget it.

Qin Ronggu has been busy with the Fuzhou salt class, and Zhou Hanzhi and Zheng Yan have not had much contact on weekdays, so they just told him to be careful at night, and let Fuyan follow him by the way.

The sky turned dark and dark, the lights on Qingsi Lake were lit up, and the sound of silk, bamboo, pipa and men and women talking and laughing came from across the water.There is a small boat hidden deep in the lotus leaves, the sky is cloudless, and the stars and Zhang Ming fall into the water, like pearls going out of the mirror.

The red canal lady was stroking the red rosewood pipa in her hand, Zheng Yan was not drinking, and the blue-glazed plate in front of him contained the longan he had brought, and he ate one by one quietly without saying a word.

"Be careful of getting angry after eating so much." Zhou Hanzhi poured a cup of tea, Zheng Yan took the tureen and walked under the lantern to hold it up.

The gray-purple colored glass cup was filled with clear tea. He shook the cup, and the water in the cup reflected the light of the candle and flowed.Zheng Yan drank the tea in one gulp and let go of the side of the boat, the cup fell into the water.He obviously didn't drink, but he looked drunk.

"Hongqu, you go to the meeting, it's none of your business." Zheng Yan snorted a few words, sat down and ate longan again, "I've been worrying for the past few days, my energy and blood are weak, and I eat too much as a tonic Make up for it."

"But if you eat too much, you will get nosebleeds."

Zheng Yan scanned the things on the desk and sat on it, "Xianyan, I'll be fine after a few days, you don't have to worry about me. I just... saw my father."

"Go back earlier in a while, and rest early even if you have nothing to do. If you have a bad temper, eat less food that gets angry."

Zheng Yan shook his head and blew on the lamp, then dragged him out to lean against the side of the boat, and said after a long time: "Xianyan, I don't know how to read astrology, so don't think about anything else when you look at the many stars in the sky."

"Ah."

"Maybe a long time ago, there was someone looking up at the sky like this on Qingsi Lake, but I don't know who he is. There will be people looking up at the sky in the future, and I don't know who he is. So I will go back later and write an article " "Looking Up to Talent", write down that Zheng Yan and Zhou Xianyan are here to watch Xingzi tonight."

Zhou Hanzhi didn't respond, everyone thought he was Zhou Xianyan, but Zhou Shilang didn't have a cousin, he was Zhou Shangshu's eldest son.

"A long time ago, someone told me that there are two things in this world that should not be told to others, and now I understand. The people you like and the things you want to do, you must never tell them." He turned his head to look at Zhou Hanzhi, and smiled helplessly .

"For you."

"Huh?" Zhou Han chased after what Zheng Yan handed over, but he couldn't see it clearly under the moonlight.It was a piece of red jade agate engraved with the sacred bird of Jiaoming, and the ice-silk azurite ribbon hung down.

"Put it away, this is what I gave you. If you don't like it, just throw it in the lake."

"I'd better keep it, and pass it on from generation to generation. If any unfilial descendants fail, they can be saved." Zhou Hanzhi was joking. He always felt that Zheng Yan had something to say today, but if Zheng Yan wanted to hide something, he did. Can not guess.

Only in that sentence, he clearly remembered the words "Zheng Yan and Zhou Xianyan", it was not "I and you", but Zheng Yan and Zhou Xianyan.

iced soy milk

Zhou Hanzhi and Lu Keli went to Linzhi Pavilion, the sunflowers in the yard were drooping with flowers and leaves, Zheng Yan was not too hot, and was holding a bamboo pole to poke the Maemi on the tree.

"Lord Lu, Xianyan, come inside quickly, it's so hot outside."

"Xiaoli Zheng is finally back. Brother Dong will save you from talking about you all day, so you can go into the house too."

"Hey, I'll come." Zheng Yan leaned the bamboo pole against the corner.

Occasionally, the hot wind blew and the sun was scorching. Dong Panshi was bending over to grind ink under the window, his face sweating.

"Brother Dong, take a break?"

"Okay, well——" Dong Panshi wiped off his sweat and sat down on the chair, "Brother Lu, Xianyan, sit by yourselves. The "White Ape Presenting a Longevity Picture" recently brought from the palace must not be ignored. , the color of the ink has faded a bit. It is important to restore the old as it is when doing this. If you want to make it up, you have to match the color of the ink under the sun. Your books, don’t be in a hurry. There is something wrong with the partition door in the side hall Master Liu hired a carpenter to repair it, and boiled isinglass there on a hot day, so it was inconvenient for Chang Yu and the others to come in and out there."

"Master Dong, first drink a bowl of mung bean soup to cool off the heat." Zheng Yan brought the pot and walked in, "Don't laugh at us, Xianyan, in this hot weather, the ice plate will melt after a while, so we just brought mung bean soup and used it Let's drink it iced. Master Lu, would you like a bowl?"

"No need, you guys have a solution." Lu Keli waved his white feather fan, "If so, we'll go back. We can't do anything these few days, and Xianyan suffered from heatstroke the day before yesterday after being too busy. We've just worked hard all our lives Life."

Zheng Yan took off the flattened sheets of paper pasted on the wall, "If it's cooler at the Hongwen Museum, I'll go to your place to work in the afternoon, Master Lu, don't push me away."

"I won't kick you out, I'm afraid the adults who are suffering here won't let you go." Lu Keli said with a smile, "The Hongwen Hall is not cool, and the students will all rest in a few days. Xianyan followed me , I didn’t want to give him a rest because of my selfishness, but I can’t bear to let him stay with me in a few days.”

"I'm not happy that Mr. Lu said that. I'll learn more from you." Zhou Hanzhi answered, and Lu Keli stroked his beard with a smile.

"Okay, then let's go back first." Lu Keli stood up, "Brother Dong, hurry up and don't come out."

Zheng Yan sent Zhou Hanzhi and Lu Keli out when he suddenly had a nosebleed, so he quickly raised his head.

"Master Zheng, your longan is delicious, but don't eat too much." Zhou Hanzhi looked at him and said.

"..." Zheng Yan raised his head and waved his hands, "Master Lu, go slowly, you should eat less, forgive me for seeing you off soon."

Lu Keli had to go elsewhere after leaving the Linzhi Hall, Zhou Hanzhi went back by himself, and saw Qin Ronggu come out when he arrived near the Hongwen Hall.

"I thought I couldn't meet you," Qin Ronggu also saw him, and walked over quickly, "I didn't even put on an umbrella, I was sweating in the sun."

"I'll just go out for a while, I don't have much time on the way. Why is Rong Gu here?"

"I'm feeling hot, so I'm lazy today, and I'm here to give you something good, iced peanut walnut soy milk, everyone will share, and you can drink some when you go in later. Don't walk by yourself when you go back at noon, let the floating Cigarettes will pick you up."

"You still feel the heat," Zhou Hanzhi laughed at him, "I remember what you said."

Qin Ronggu smiled, and left without continuing to speak.

The white porcelain bowl with pomegranate pattern is filled with iced soy milk, which feels cool before drinking.Zhou Hanzhi picked up the bowl and took a sip, unconsciously curling the corners of his lips.If Qin Ronggu is not the crown prince, or if he is indeed Zhou Shilang's cousin, this kind of relationship would be considered wonderful.

Hand stove in winter, peach blossom in early spring, umbrella in drizzle, iced soy milk in hot weather.Thinking about it carefully, he is surrounded by Qin Ronggu's care, no matter how big or small the matter is, he has put his thought into it.

With the noise of cicadas, Zhou Hanzhi wasn't sleepy at noon, so he moved an old elm chair under the tree to lean on with his eyes squinted.Occasionally, a gust of wind blows up a few strands of hair, and after a long time, I feel dizzy
