Chapter 2 The one in Beijing still doesn't give up
"I've had a sweet sleep."
Sun Tonglin woke up and felt that he was sleeping well. He was about to get out of bed to check the job, but he saw that the window paper was white, and it was obvious that it was already bright.
"Hey, what time has it been? Why did I sleep so hard? I have never slept like this before." Sun Tonglinqi said.
When I saw the personal soldiers and Yi lying on the edge of their bed, they were sleeping to death, and the corners of their mouths were overflowing.
"Get up quickly and sleep!" Sun Tonglin kicked his personal soldiers with his feet, but the personal soldiers were still awake.
"Hmm? No!"
Sun Tonglin suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickly got dressed and got out of bed, opened the door and rushed into the yard.
But I saw that there was no one standing guard in the yard, except those who were asleep in the tent, they were huddled by the door and slept soundly in the corner of the wall.
"Director Ha, Director Ha..." Sun Tonglin realized that something was wrong and hurried to knock on Hatis's door.
No one responded.
Sun Tonglin pushed it gently, and the door opened with a creaking sound, but it was not bolted.
When he pushed the door and looked in, Sun Tonglin was confused!
Who is in the house?
Hurry up and check in another house. In addition to Hatis, Zhang Nianbao is missing!
Fortunately, other craftsmen are still there.
Sun Tonglin knew that this was a death.
He quickly woke everyone up and searched around, but the so-called shopkeeper and the servant disappeared.
Sun Tonglin regretted it and quickly ordered someone to find the town and ask.
Li Zheng's words completely made Sun Tonglin's heart fall into the ice cellar.
But it turned out that this shopkeeper Sang came to the local area three months ago and spent a lot of money to get the inn. The real owner of the inn was indeed surnamed Sang. However, after the old couple took the shop out, they went to live in the town.
Sun Tonglin quickly sent people to chase north and chased them to the Yangtze River. When he saw the navy's soldiers, no one found any trace of Hatis and Zhang Nianbao.
...
At this time, Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang was sailing on the Yangtze River on a large ship "Longsheng".
This is a huge fleet.
The "Longsheng" that once sat in the South China Sea was a 5,000-material ship, which was also in this fleet.
The fleet has about 500 ships, and more than 20 large ships with a capacity of more than 5,000.
This fleet has 20,000 naval divisions, 1,000 imperial troops, 3,000 mountain troops, and 30,000 engineer soldiers.
The purpose of this fleet is to take Sichuan west.
Ai Nengqi has been ordered to go west to Xiangyang to capture Hanzhong with the purpose of taking Hanzhong and attacking Sichuan from the north.
The purpose of this fleet is to take Chongqing directly from the waterway.
...
"Wang Binlou's ship was down in Yizhou, and the kingly aura of Jinling was depressed.
The Qianxun iron lock sinks to the bottom of the river, and a stone descends from the descending banner.
The past is hurt several times in the world, but the mountain still has a cold wave.
Now we meet the sun of the family in the world, and the old building is rustling and autumn.
At this time, the fleet was sailing on the river west of Yiling. Zhu Youlang looked at the turbulent and turbid river water and couldn't help but be full of poetry and recited a poem by Liu Yuxi's "Nostalgia on the Xisai Mountain".
"Yes, Your Majesty, if Sichuan doesn't take it, Nanjing will be unstable. Look, the river flows eastward, and it's so hard to sail against the current. If you go downstream, it will probably take less than a month to reach Nanjing." Gu Yanwu said.
"Yes. The country of Sichuan Tianfu is a fertile country with thousands of miles of fertile land, and is the most prosperous, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Alas, Cedar, do you know there are three roads to enter Sichuan, but do you know what the road is called?" Zhu Youlang asked.
"Your Majesty, this is not a problem. Starting from Yangping Pass, cross Micang Mountain, arrive at Guangyuan, Sichuan, then pass through Jianmen Pass, arrive at Zitong, Mianyang, and finally arrive at Chengdu. This road is called the 'Talented Road'.
Starting from Hanzhong, cross Micang Mountain, leading directly to Bazhong in Sichuan, and then continue to south from Bazhong to Chongqing. This road is called Micang Road.
From the middle of the Han Dynasty, I passed through Xixiang, Wanyuan, and finally arrived in Dazhou. Then I could go south to Chongqing. When Yang Guifei ate lychees, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang sent people to transport lychees from Sichuan to Chang'an. The so-called "Riding the Concubine in the Red Dust" was walking this road, so it was called the "litchi road". Your Majesty, I wonder what I said is correct?"
"Hahaha..., Cedar, it's really profound, it's really good." Zhu Youlang said appreciatively.
"It is better to travel thousands of miles than reading books. Before I followed the dragon, I went to places many times because I took shelter. Whenever I arrived at a place, I would try my best to find local chronicles to read them. Therefore, I am quite familiar with the geography, customs, stories, and characters in various places." Gu Yanwu said unceremoniously.
"Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. This sentence is good. Reading books until you become Zhao Kuo's talk about war on paper. Only those who hold a sword in the world can experience the sufferings of the world, and what you write is a popular sentence and the true meaning of life. Who is the immortal poet Taibai and the saint Du Fu, who has read a lot of books and traveled a lifetime?" Zhu Youlang said.
He really wanted to follow the second couplet to Gu Yanwu's famous saying: "It is better to see countless people than to walk thousands of miles."
If you look at this second line from the literal meaning, it is nothing, it is just to increase your experience and increase your ability to look at people.
However, Zhu Youlang did not plan to continue, because "there are countless people" can easily make people think in a wrong way. As an emperor, he could not leave such famous quotes throughout the ages.
In later generations, I still don’t know how to interpret it by those young “supernatural spirits”.
"Yes, Your Majesty, from studying to becoming an official, it is actually the same. If you are a county or a government chief, you will definitely go deep into the people and understand the sufferings of the people. You will never be arrogant and sit in the yamen to issue orders randomly." Gu Yanwu said.
"Well, from studying to becoming an official, Xue Song's experience is very good. Let's do this. You just wrote an article and gave it to your good friends for publishing. I think it can be one of the codes of conduct for all local masters. I really can't tolerate those officials who do not ask about the sufferings of the people." Zhu Youlang said.
"Yes, I will think carefully, understand Your Majesty's meaning thoroughly, and write it into the article." Gu Yanwu replied.
"We have arrived in Guizhou ahead. Should we go to visit Qu Yuan Temple?" Zhu Youlang asked.
"Your Majesty, Qu Yuan Temple is not in Guizhou, and our itinerary cannot be delayed. According to my wishes, when we return victoriously, we will pay tribute. Your Majesty, do you think?"
"Okay, let's put state affairs first." Zhu Youlang accepted Gu Yanwu's suggestion.
After all, this is going to fight, not travel.
"Your Majesty, it's very windy on the river. Let's go back to the cabin to rest." Yang Ailable on the other side of Zhu Youlang, and saw that there was a gap in his words, he hurriedly said.
"Your Majesty, the Clippers behind him sent an emergency memorial, which was sent by Ma Jixiang, the commander of the Jinyiwei, who asked him to send it to him."
Zhu Youlang was about to return to the cabin, but saw a middle-aged man at the stern of the boat coming over in a hurry, holding a memorial in his hand.
Zhu Youlang took it, looked at it for a moment, and frowned: "Sure enough, the one in Beijing still doesn't give up."
