Xuansheng Palace, Taixiao Lake.
The light boat is leisurely, and the cold smoke is green on the waves. The green hills are like a screen, a shadow of prosperity for half a lifetime.
Another year in a blink of an eye, spring is gone, autumn is far away, I have seen the world and the wind and clouds, and I can't see all the people. I go boating and stop, stealing half a day of leisure.
On the side of the boat, Ye Tianling was leaning leisurely there, playing with a purple bamboo flute in his hand, the wide sleeves of his green robe fluttering in the wind, his eyes half closed, with a relaxed expression. Qing Chen sat beside him, dressed in white clothes like a cloud, untainted by lead, twitching the strings with her slender fingers, and the voiceless sound flowed from the reciting piano, twirling at her fingertips, wandering above the clouds.
Just playing the piano aimlessly, just for a boat trip with him. After the palace change in the seventh year of Emperor Yao, Qing Chen moved to Xuansheng Palace to recuperate because of her old illness. The mountains and rivers are beautiful here, and the palace garden is quiet. Gradually, she seldom returns to Dazheng Palace and often lives here. In the past few years, her health has been going up and down, and she has already become a habit. She has practiced all her medical skills superbly in her own body. Although fate is predetermined, people can also seek it.
Perhaps because Qing Chen spent less and less time returning to the palace, Ye Tianling came to Xuansheng Palace more and more. Today I came here on a whim, but I didn't see her anywhere. I heard the sound of the piano on Taixiao Lake, and came looking for the sound, but I saw her playing the piano alone, looking at the lake with clear autumn colors, and her thoughts were leisurely.
A little tune, light and distant. Ye Tianling originally listened quietly, but suddenly raised his thin lips, looked back at each other, stroked the bamboo flute with his slender fingers, the clear flute sound floated freely, and brought the cloud shadow and sky light, and immediately blended into the sound of the piano.
The seven strings are like silk, the jade is clean and the ice is clear, and the purple bamboo is beautiful, clear and free. Qing Chen glanced at him with a smile, raised his hand and flicked, and the sound of the piano also fluttered.
The sea laughs, the tides on both sides of the bank surge, and the ups and downs follow the waves to remember the present;
The sky laughs, one after another the tide of the world, whoever loses and who wins, God knows;
The mountains and rivers laugh, the mist and rain are far away, and the waves wash away the world of mortals, how much do you know;
The common people smile, no longer lonely, but the passion is still smiling idiotically.
The sound of the piano is elegant, the breeze is gone, and the misty rain is lightly seen. The sound of the flute is far away, and the waves rise, smiling at the ups and downs of the sea.
A piece of "Smile in the Sea", the sound of the flute and the sound of the piano flow together, as if they are one, not on the fingertips, not on the lips, as if only in the heart. There is a tacit understanding, and we look at each other with wings to each other, watching the world happy together, and listening to the ebb and flow of the tide. Hand in hand and accompany each other, the world of mortals will be wiped out.
The sound of the piano gradually faded away, and the sound of the flute faded into the sky. Accompanied by the last lingering sound, Qing Chen seemed to sigh lightly, and asked Ye Tianling with a smile: "Fourth brother, do you still remember this song?"
Zizhu Xiao twirled around Ye Tianling's hand, and he raised his eyebrows at her: "Of course I remember, the first time I heard your qin was this song."
Qing Chen stroked Bing Xian with his fingers, and smiled with lowered eyes. Ye Tianling stepped forward slowly, bowed his head and asked, "Qing'er, you have been with me for ten years this journey." He raised her delicate face: "Are you happy?"
Qing Chen smiled faintly: "Since I'm with you, I'm naturally happy."
The corners of Ye Tianling's lips curled into a handsome arc, he shook his head slightly, and said again: "What are you thinking? Tell me."
Qing Chen stared at him, his handsome and unrestrained smile, his dark eyes dazzled with brilliance, penetrating into her heart, seeing her clearly, his deep voice seemed to be tempting her, Waiting for her, pampering her...
Such a magnanimous gaze reflects the cool autumn sky, with a clear view of the blue clouds for thousands of miles. She suddenly raised her eyes and smiled, looked at the Qionglou in Yaochi, the Golden Palace and Biyuan, and asked slowly: "The sky is not high enough, the sea is not wide enough, fourth brother, are you willing?"
Ye Tianling laughed long and loudly, and Yixing said proudly in the smile, "Since it's a square inch, why don't you give it up?"
Qing Chen smiled brightly: "Really willing?"
Ye Tianling caressed her face: "I'm willing, because I don't want to." He took Qing Chen into his arms, ran his fingers through her cool hair, his eyes were full of pity, and said warmly: "Qing'er, I promised to accompany you to the East China Sea, you have been with me for ten years in this world, let me accompany you in the days to come."
Qing Chen smiled without saying a word, and leaned into his warm arms. The two stood on the bow of the boat, the lake breeze was clear and far away, their sleeves were blowing head-on, the light boat drifted, and gradually faded into the depths of the misty cloud water.
"History of the Celestial Dynasty. Imperial Capital", Volume 94.
In March of the eleventh year of Emperor Yao, the emperor ordered King Zhan to be regent, and to tour the east with the Queen of Heaven. In April, climb Jingyun Mountain and offer sacrifices to the First Emperor. Take a ferry from the river, cross Qizhou, and arrive at Jiuyuan. In May, when I arrived at Langzhou, I boarded a boat and went out to sea, and encountered a strong wind. The sea is raging and the waves are fast, attacking and scattering all the boats. The waves breathe, the emperor boat is gone...
In the late spring of Emperor Yao's eleventh year, the imperial capital was originally warm and sunny, with flowers blooming like a brocade, the government was well-organized and the people were harmonious, singing and dancing everywhere, but suddenly the news from the East China Sea caused an uproar.
The boat that the emperor and empress were traveling to the east encountered a storm in the East China Sea and disappeared without a trace. The Langzhou navy dispatched more than 200 warships and tens of thousands of soldiers. They searched in many ways, but only found 21 accompanying ships after three days, and the rest of the ships could not return.
The death of the emperor and empress, once the news was confirmed, the whole court was shocked and the whole world mourned. People in the thirty-six prefectures of the Celestial Dynasty poured out libations and cups, weeping and looking at the East China Sea.
There was a solemn and desolate scene inside and outside the imperial capital. In front of the Taiji Hall of the Dazheng Palace, all the officials knelt and kowtowed. At this time, Si Weiyun, who had been worshiped as Lintai's inner minister, held the edict of Emperor Hao's succession in his hand, and led several ministers to kneel in the hall, facing the back of King Zhan in white clothes.
It has been more than a month since the bad news spread to the imperial capital. The Donghai navy went out to sea dozens of times to search for the emperor boat, but they still found nothing. But no matter how he persuaded him, King Zhan insisted on refusing to inherit the throne. A country cannot be without a king for a day, Si Weiyun and others were deeply worried after grief, and knelt down in front of the palace again today. King Zhan didn't say a word, just looked at the golden throne and stood still.
Si Weiyun raised his head, the slender back in front of him looked so lonely in front of the tall and majestic hall, he could almost feel the sadness in King Zhan's heart, it was a kind of sadness brought about by an unforgettable pain, speechless, silent, endless , endless, filled the entire glorious palace, and the world was also saddened by it.
"My lord!" Si Weiyun kowtowed again to invite King Zhan to be enthroned, and all the officials behind him bowed their heads together.
King Zhan finally turned around, and the mourning crowns in front of the hall were as plain as a sea, all falling into his lonely eyes, "You all step back." He said slowly.
"My lord!"
"Back off."
Si Weiyun and Du Junshu looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and had no choice but to bend down and obey orders.
The officials retired, and the inside and outside of the hall gradually became empty and silent. The afterglow of the twilight fell on the eaves and pillars of the dragon steps, smearing silent light and shadow on the mirror-like black stone floor in the hall.
Ye Tianzhan walked forward, only his footsteps could be clearly heard in the empty hall, walked through the long hall, stepped up the high jade steps, and finally stopped in front of the dragon chair at the highest place. He stretched out his hand, touched the gilded and golden relief, and suddenly exerted force, the dragon scales and sharp claws pierced his palm, sharp pain suddenly spread all over his body, the feeling of thousands of arrows shooting in his heart seemed to follow the pain, slightly become blurred.
He looked at this dragon chair without blinking, all kinds of feelings were in his heart. What he wanted the most, what he pursued so hard, is now in sight, but there is a person who has disappeared from his life forever.
What he got, what he lost, got it when he least wanted it, and lost it when he least wanted to lose it.
After the pain, my heart seemed to be blank. He leaned on the dragon chair and found himself laughing. A trace of bitterness soaked into the bone marrow, a silent mockery, an invisible laugh.
"Father." Suddenly someone called him from behind, Ye Tianzhan turned his head and saw Yuan Xiu standing on the side of the hall with something in his hand. Seeing him turn around, Yuan Xiu walked up to the jade steps, raised his head and said, "Aunt Huang left me this wooden box before she went to Donghai, and asked me to hand it over to you in three months' time."
Ye Tianzhan took the wooden box from Yuan Xiu's hand. The familiar patterns and exquisite carvings were the ones he gave to Qing Chen before he went out to war in previous years. Open the lid of the box, and there is still the hosta inside, the white jade is fat, the magnolia is quiet, and beside it is a snow-colored silk. With a flick of his wrist, two lines of handwriting on the silk spread before his eyes. It is clearly the handwriting of two people, but the bones match, as if it was written by one person——
Entrust Jun Sheji, and return Jun Jiangshan.
Yuan Xiu stood by and saw his father's hands trembling slightly. "Father?" He couldn't help but called out.
Ye Tianzhan clasped his hands tightly, closed his eyes suddenly and raised his head, unable to speak for a long time. When he opened his eyes again, red threads appeared in his eyes, but a transparent and clear smile slowly escaped from the corners of his lips.
In July of the 11th year of Emperor Yao, King Zhan ascended the throne, called the Holy Emperor, and changed his name to Taihe.
In the first year of Taihe, the concubine Jin was registered as a noble concubine, and the prince Yuanxiu was the prince. In September, Yujia visited the east and stayed in Langzhou for more than three months. At the end of the year, he returned to the imperial capital.
A few years later, the world is in great order. In the Taihe Dynasty, there was no greed and mediocrity in the court, and there were no virtuous people in the wild. The annual harvest in Kyushu is rich and rich, and each bucket of rice does not cost more than two yuan, and only more than 20 people are sentenced to death at the end of the year. As far as the sea in the east, there are five mountains in Antarctica. The houses are never closed at night, the roads are not picked up, and the roads are not disturbed. It is called "the prosperous age of Taihe" in history.
Langzhou Haiguan Terrace, Ye Tianzhan stood alone on the top of the cliff with his hands behind his back, the vast East China Sea raised his eyes, and the wind blew his clothes fluttering, but he couldn't shake his tall and straight figure.
The distant sky is still shrouded in a dark blue mist. In front of the cliff is a steep cliff. Broken waves were like snow, scattered in mid-air one after another, receding far away with the sound of the raging waves, and disappeared in the distance of the ups and downs of the waves. The tide ebbs and flows, surging, one wave after another, and it goes on and on, endlessly.
Ariel is endless, and there is a sky beyond the sky.
Ye Tianzhan looked at the East China Sea, which he had experienced all kinds of storms and created tranquility single-handedly. A ray of morning light gradually appeared on the line between the sea and the sky, and as the morning sun rose slowly, the sea surface was gorgeous, and the clouds were surging, as if there was a huge irresistible force in the depths. Finally, a round of rising sun burst out with dazzling rays of light, illuminating a piece of magnificent splendor between the heaven and the earth.
Ye Tianzhan is bathed in the brilliance of the rising sun, his deep eyes are full of brightness and determination, looking back, the wind is thousands of miles away, and the mountains and rivers are picturesque.
postscript
In the ninth year of Taihe, a merchant ship from Langzhou sailed east across the sea to avoid the hurricane and lost its way accidentally. Drifting with the waves, I can't see the way back, the boat travels for several days, and suddenly encounters a fairy mountain, the mountain is in the sea, with a radius of hundreds of miles, misty clouds and mist, shrouded in haze, jade peaks, and Xialing. Then I stopped the boat and landed, looking for the way forward, just in time for the new season after the rain, the green peaks surrounded by clouds, the mountains and wild Qionglin fell, the Yao branches were colorful, and the Lanzhi and Qicao were clean and delicious. Among them is the clear stream of Yuhu Lake, where the clear and clear shadows of people can be seen, and the five-color jade is scattered by the water, with crystal luster, which can be obtained by looking up. The green luan chooses the danmu to live in, the colorful phoenix soars to dance by itself, the birds are flying, and the sound of clear singing is sweet. Go back for hundreds of steps, meet strange beasts and form a pair, chasing and playing in front of them, the shape is like a sable fox, the whole body is like snow, one golden pupil, one clear, supernatural and extraordinary. There are three or five women in the forest picking fragrant grass, laughing and talking exquisitely, singing leisurely, seeing different people, they are very different, and hearing their situation, they will pay homage to their master.
Walking along the mountain, the cloud environment is like an illusion, lingering and forgetting the distance of the road. In front, there are houses with the shape of mountains and mountains, with green bamboos as eaves, purple bamboos as platforms, clear waterfalls as curtains, floating mist as curtains, high towers, corridors and waists, floating clouds, and a myriad of weather, it is difficult to see the whole picture. At the top of the extreme peak, climb to the tower, and look out into the distance, the poor blue waves are thousands of miles away, and relying on the emptiness to resist the wind, you can Ling Wanqing's awe-inspiring. In the vicissitudes of life, I don't know where to stop, the sky is high and the earth is far away, and I don't know where I am. The air is clear and the mind is refreshed, forgetting the mundane world, floating in the heart, envious of the ease of the immortal world.
And see the master, the man in Qingyun clothes, the woman in white clothes, with a clear and proud demeanor, with a demeanor beyond the dust, a happy couple of gods and immortals. I heard that the guests came from the heavens, and they had a banquet. I have never seen fine nectar, jade liquid, and rare seafood. Ask the Heavenly Dynasty, the rule of the prosperity of the clouds, and smile happily. Talking about exotic places in the world, witty words and anecdotes, broad knowledge, talking and laughing amazed everyone. There is a servant with a handsome face in Xuanyi, who leads people to visit the mountain and island again, and the wonders cannot be fully described. I saw the treasure ship moored in the blue sea, more than forty feet long and ten feet wide, with long oars and huge boats, dragon masts and cloud sails, which could accommodate hundreds of people. It is said that its master is a boat that travels in the clouds, wherever it is prosperous, it rides the wind and waves, and it can reach everything in the East China Sea, Nanming, and Western Oceans.
Stop for a few days and leave. In order to prepare fresh water, food and vegetables, rare treasures were presented as presents. Among them is "Pictures of the West Sea", which depicts the sea routes of the West and records the customs of various countries in detail, which is rare in the world. Servant light boats lead each other, leave the shore and enter the sea, and hear the sound of the flute to see off the guests, the vast clouds and waves, the waves are thousands of miles away, and the fairy mountains are getting farther away.
And in Langzhou, Pu Zhou disappeared. The companion Pang Yu, a relative of the Langzhou patrol envoy, returned to the patrol envoy, said this strange thing, and thought it was strange. It coincided with the emperor's east tour, introducing the holy emperor and presenting the treasure map. When the emperor saw it, he was shocked, and immediately sent a boat into the sea to find this island. The East China Sea is vast, and the way back is hard to come by. The emperor climbed to the viewing platform, looked at the wind, and sighed with a smile: the world is free, and the world is a fairyland. So I don't ask anymore. Yunzhou Luqian, retinue eastbound, according to the decree to record it, Jiashen April autumn.
