Don't be tempted, sir

Chapter 83 Looking Back

The group went boating into the misty lake, and could hear a few cries of "Gull~Gull~Gull~" as they went downstream. Zhao Jinmo was curious, and Zhao Chongtai clenched the hilt of his sword, ready to fight at any time.

Shen Yining stared at the fog with anticipation. A gust of wind came, and the fog was blown away from the lake little by little. The group watched the fog drift away from them with the wind.

The entire lake is like a tranquil sky, and the water is clear. White water lilies bloom on the blue lake, swaying with the water, and swaying gracefully! The gulls are busy fishing, hovering in the air with the wind, diving into the water, and eating small fish in their mouths.

I felt relaxed and happy while boating. Everything I saw was something I had never seen before. No one spoke when the scene in front of me was bright. They were so shocked that they forgot to speak. Only the sound of the oars floating on the water rose and fell like a heartbeat, like a throbbing heart.

Zhao Chongtai forgot to loosen his grip on the hilt of the sword, and stared into the distance without blinking. He seemed to have forgotten to breathe. After a long while, he opened his mouth and took a long breath: "This... Are we immortals? We are traveling in the blue sky..."

"The water and the sky are one color, and I still can't tell where we are boating." Zhao Jinmo murmured.

A Bao happily replied: "Young Master, of course it's the lake! If we can float to the sky, we will truly become immortals! Hahahaha"

"Beautiful!" Zhao Chongtai boasted, and then called out to Song Xiaoyuan on the boat behind him: "Mr. Song! You have changed now, and you know how to bluff people! If I were to use my knife here and splatter blood in this blue lake... I myself would not be able to bear it, so if I have to splatter, it would be my blood, and I would be willing to make the lake clean."

Song Xiaoyuan smiled and replied: "Mr. Zhao is lucky, this trip was worthwhile."

"It's true, it's true. I have seen this secret realm without any regrets!"

Shen Yining put his hand into the water, the water flowing across his fingertips was cold but warm: "Xiao Yuan, try it! This water is scalding."

Song Xiaoyuan rolled up his sleeves and reached into the water, feeling the cold but soothing water, as if recalling the present. He spoke slowly: "I am used to the world now, and my heart is at ease everywhere."

Zhao Jinmo looked at the two of them and reached out to feel it: "Under the Hanguang Pavilion, the water is like the sky, and a flock of seagulls are flying. Zhang Ci Ren..."

"My cousin has a good memory! "Xijiangyue: Hearing the news of the spring scenery by the lake"

The old man on the boat completed the poem: "I asked about the spring scenery by the lake, and it has been three years since I came again. The east wind blew my boat across the lake, and the willow trees brushed my face. What a good poem, what a good word!"

A short poem tells the three people's thoughts. I am afraid that life is like this. Feeling and sighing, turning around and looking back! At this moment, it is leisurely...

The old man has lived half his life and has long since lost interest in fame and fortune. He returns to his hometown to fish in this place. He hums the Baizhou tune leisurely, and the boaters on the other two boats sing along...

Although I don’t understand it, the adjustment is enough to soothe my heart.

White gulls flew around the boat and rode the wind, some even stood on the boat and floated along the lake. Shen Yining picked a handful of water lilies with his hands, and Song Xiaoyuan gently pulled them from behind.

Zhao Chongtai said, "Yining, be careful. Don't let the flowers get wet on your clothes."

"Okay, uncle, don't worry. I'll cook for you to taste later."

"Oh? Can this flower be eaten?"

They went ashore to a farmer's house, ate flowers and tasted fish. Everyone ate with gusto. The food was swept away. After they had eaten their fill, they said goodbye to Kunmichuan.

Back at Shangguan, the horses strolled leisurely along the Camellia Road. The Camellia flowers had no fragrance, but their colors were passionate. There was a stall selling fruits and snacks on the roadside. In addition to the common fruits, there were also carved plum preserves and carved plum wine that we had never seen before. Jinhua greeted everyone warmly and asked them to try some.

Shen Yining took the carved plum, which was beautiful and exquisite, and tasted sweet and sour, which made her mouth water. The men took the carved plum wine, which tasted elegant and almost unearthly. The result was, of course, buying, buying, buying! The things they bought were hung all over the back of the horse.

"Sir Song! This time I traveled to a vast territory with beautiful mountains and rivers, and saw the people living and working in peace and contentment. In the past, I only felt that the people and the continents I protected were my duty. This time, I felt that the territory I protected with my sword was both my duty and my unwillingness."

Song Xiaoyuan looked into the distance, raised his glass on horseback and said, "Every inch of the mountains and rivers is worth a coin, Mr. Zhao, drink up." The two men toasted the mountains and rivers and drank Diaomei wine.

Shen Yining rode in his arms, the scent of white cedar mixed with the wine, intoxicating even before drinking: "You said the same thing in the rice field that day."

Song Xiaoyuan looked at the person in his arms and lowered his eyes: "I'm not that brave." So at this moment I have you, Shen Yining.

Zhao Jinmo did not drink, but just listened quietly. The first time he swung the knife was just for his sister, but now his mood has changed, for his sister, and also for his country.

As for Awu~kill, kill, kill, the main thing is that he has a lot of strength and is willing to kill the captain and the son of the prince.

The carved plum wine tasted delicious. Before we even got home, the group was so drunk that they supported each other: "Drink, drink~"

"Ah? Still drinking?"

"Xiao Yuan, you...how come you have two shadows?"

The atmosphere was set, and with carved plum wine at the side, no one was spared!

Shen Yining and Song Xiaoyuan were drunk, and they fell on the couch together, foreheads touching: "Xiaoyuan, you are so beautiful, do you agree to choose you as my son-in-law?"

Song Xiaoyuan put his arm around her slender waist: "Yeah."

"Haha, husband~husband Xiao Yuan."

Song Xiaoyuan's eyes were full of light, and her face was full of flowers and she smiled warmly: "You are too thin, eat more."

"Yes, husband." The two of them fell asleep on the bed.

The next day, Shen Yining woke up in his arms, feeling dizzy: "Ah..."

Song Xiaoyuan also woke up, also feeling dizzy, but inexplicably happy, although he didn't know why. Shen Yining came out of his arms, and was immediately dazzled: "This wine is really...intoxicating!"

Seeing him leaning his elbows on the couch with an unknown smile on his face, Shen Yining was puzzled and asked, "Xiao Yuan, don't you have a headache?"

"It hurts!"

"Why are you smiling when it hurts you?"

"I don't know. I'm just inexplicably happy."

"Ok?"

The group of people, who had lost their appetite, sat at the table and had no idea what they were eating. Zhao Chongtai held his head and said, "This Diaomei wine tastes gentle, but I didn't expect it to have such a strong aftereffect." He looked up and saw Song Xiaoyuan, who looked very happy: "Master Song, are you... still drunk?"

"Ah."

After eating a little, they all went back to their rooms to rest. After lying down for many days, officials from Yunnan Province arrived one after another. The real Yan An came to the mansion to pay his respects: "The humble Yan An is here to greet Lord Song and General Zhao. The heavy snow blocked the mountain and the humble Yan An arrived late."

Several people had long forgotten that it was winter. After a moment of hesitation, they returned to normal. Song Xiaoyuan looked at the handsome Yan An and said gently, "Come here, Governor Yan, this is your official seal. I'll trouble you in Dianzhou."

Yan An took it with both hands and bowed: "Thank you, Lord Song, for sacrificing your life to protect the people of this area. Yan An... feels guilty!"

The group mounted their horses and whipped their horses to the city gate. Looking back at Yunnan, they saw a constant stream of traffic.

[Yunnan is living and working in peace and contentment. Hereby announce: Zhizhou Yan'an has captured the wanted criminal Zhang Wei. The chief military officer Wu Gao, the magistrate Guo Lin, and the prefect Wang Xi have colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. Qinji Silver Shop has privately set up a silver mine, and Wen's Salt Shop has colluded with the court's important criminals to abuse public power for personal gain. The first-class criminal has committed suicide in the city defense prison because he feels ashamed of the people. The chief military officer is now replaced by Gu Qing, and the magistrate Le Lin and the prefect Hu Shanxin will take office immediately. Hereby announce! ]

Yan An and the officials who had just taken office saw him off at the city gate. Three officers and soldiers who knew the whole story offered wine to say goodbye: "Sir, we are bidding you farewell on behalf of the people of Yunnan Province. We are grateful for your protection of Yunnan Province!"

Song Xiaoyuan took the bowl and drank the mellow and spicy plum wine in one gulp: "Thank you for seeing me off, let's go back!"
