It was a beautiful day, the wind was gentle and the sun was shining brightly.
"Oh, isn't this the fishing rod you bought three years ago?"
Tao Yao, who was holding the box, tilted her head. The thin red shirt with white stripes and the pleated white skirt looked particularly delicate. She looked at Zhou Li, who had a blue bucket in his left hand and a pole in his right hand, and asked with a smile:
"What? Are you going to feed the fish again after three years?"
"What do you mean by feeding the fish? How can you insult someone's innocence out of thin air?!"
Zhou Li looked anxious and said angrily: "This, this, I went fishing in the Weishui River at the invitation of an old scholar. How can fishing be said to be feeding fish?"
"Then I want to eat braised crucian carp."
Putting the box on the table aside, Tao Yao clasped her hands behind her back and playfully tiptoed to Zhou Li's side. She tugged at the corner of his clothes and said softly with a hint of pity in her watery eyes:
"It's best to have a crucian carp that is five fingers long and weighs six pounds. They all say that the fish in the Weishui River are the best to catch. Xiaoli, you won't let me down~~~"
"Oh, just take a look."
Zhou Li suddenly became interested when he heard this, and sneered and said, "Just look at how your brother can directly catch the fish in the Weishui River to extinction, making those fishermen cry for father and mother."
"That's best."
Tao Yao smiled crookedly, then playfully took the thunder talisman away from Zhou Li's arms, pinched the paper talisman between her fingers, and said to the stiff-looking Zhou Li, "No cheating~~"
"When it comes to Ling Qi Master, is that called cheating?"
Zhou Li's expression turned red and he argued: "I drew the Thunder Talisman myself. Can Lingqi Master's matter be called cheating?" followed by difficult words, "The Ming Law does not prohibit electric fish" " My moral level can be flexibly adjusted." Tao Yao couldn't help but laugh, and the room was filled with happy air.
"Okay, okay, be safe and don't play with water."
After adjusting Zhou Li's collar, Tao Yao smiled slightly and said, "Send my regards to the old scholar for me."
"Sister, how old am I? I don't want to play in the water..."
Although he said this, Zhou Li also had a faint smile on his face. At this time, Tang Wan, who was wearing a white short coat and exposing his white forearms, rubbed his eyes and walked down the stairs in a daze. She looked at Zhou Li, yawned and said:
"Zhou Li, are you going to feed the fish?"
After a while, Tao Yao held back her smile and looked at Zhou Li, who was holding a bucket and a fishing rod in his left hand and holding Tang Wan under his right arm, and asked teasingly: "Xiao Li, what are you going to do with Xiao Wan?" ?”
"The old scholar said, take her fishing."
Zhou Li glanced indifferently at Tang Wan, who was confused, and said calmly: "I am responsible for fishing, and she is responsible for making nests."
"ah?"
Tang Wan was stunned for a moment, and then she fell into a brief thought. After a moment, she raised her little head and asked seriously: "Can you share some fish with me?"
Zhou Li threw Tang Wan aside, held his forehead and sighed. He really didn't know why his friend was so obsessed with eating after he turned into a girl.
"Okay, I'll go first."
Zhou Li took Tang Wan and Tao Yao to say hello, then opened the door and left Nadutong. Looking at the door being slowly closed, Taoyao smiled, with lingering happiness in her eyes.
so good···
The Weishui River, as the mother river that runs through the entire Northern Ring Road, carries too many memories. Whether it is the story of the former emperor who committed suicide by drowning himself in the river, or the allusion of the "White Water Fairy" coming to the Wei River, this long river has countless beautiful stories.
The plump and fresh crucian carp in this river makes this long river favored by anglers.
"coming?"
Next to the long river, on the gravel beach, the old scholar was half-siting on a bench, with the fishing rod in his hand forming a perfect arc with the water. After hearing the movement behind him, he said calmly: "Sit down as soon as you are here."
Hearing this, Zhou Li and Tang Wan tacitly agreed not to find a place to sit at all. The two of them walked to the old scholar in unison, lowered their heads, and looked at each other's empty fish basket.
"I just came here and I just made a nest."
With his back to Zhou Li and the other two, the old scholar said quietly: "Stop asking any more questions. I'm begging you."
"OK."
Zhou Li threw the small stool to Tang Wan, one for each person, and sat side by side with the old scholar. Zhou Li took out his fishing rod, wrapped it around the line, and flicked it hard. The line drew a graceful arc in the air and landed gently on the water.
"If you have anything to do, tell me."
Zhou Li looked at his fish float attentively, and at the same time asked the old scholar on the side: "Pass a flying pigeon to me at night. If you don't know, you thought you were going to have a feast, but you asked me to feed the fish."
"This is called fishing. Why are you so stupid?"
He said angrily to Zhou Li, and then the old scholar sighed and said: "Last night, something happened in the capital. The King of Han made a big fuss in the palace, King Zhao said he wanted to become a monk, Emperor Hongxi scolded the prince angrily, and the whole family made a fuss. unhappy."
"Um?"
Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, then he frowned and asked, "Is it none of our business?"
"Yes, it must have been nothing at first."
With a somewhat sad look on his face, the old scholar said, "Guess why so many things happened in the capital?"
"this···"
Zhou Li immediately realized that there seemed to be something wrong here.
It is said that the royal family is unfathomable, but the current sage Hongxi Emperor Zhu Gaochi is known as a good man, and his two younger brothers Han Wang and Zhao Wang are also close brothers and sisters, and there has never been any open dispute.
As for the prince Zhu Zhanji, he was even more famous as a good saint. Whether in the temple or among the people, this prince was known to be wise, wise, martial, and kind-hearted, much like the first prince Zhu Biao who died young that year.
How could such a family get into such a quarrel?
"Could it be that the prince once had a bad relationship with a woman. As a result, the heroine of this bad relationship resolutely left the capital in order not to affect the prince's position. By chance, he met King Zhao who was hunting around. King Zhao fell in love with the woman when he saw her. He took her as a concubine with all his heart, but in the end it was discovered that this woman was actually the daughter of the King of Han, and a bloody royal love story began?"
Facing Zhou Li's bloody plot without hesitation, the old scholar almost lost his grip on the fishing rod, coughed several times, and then said with a look of disgust:
"Can your brain be put to good use? If you had studied the Four Books and Five Classics to take the imperial examination, my position would have been yours long ago."
"I can't learn. I get a headache when I see the words."
Zhou Li, a doctor who had studied for more than 20 years in his previous life, flatly refused.
"To tell you the truth, this little farce in the capital is all because of a woman."
Looking at the motionless fish bobber, the old scholar said slowly: "The second most beloved daughter of the King of Han, the little princess recognized by King Zhao personally, the sweetheart of Emperor Hong Xi and Queen Zhang, the future queen to whom His Highness the Crown Prince is wedded - Princess Yuli ran away from home."
Silence is the float on the fishing rod.
Looking at the motionless fish float, Zhou Li sighed: "Tang Wan, otherwise you should go down and make a nest."
"Again."
Tang Wan said resolutely: "Make a nest, okay, you have to give me fish."
"Can't catch it."
"Then I won't go."
"No, are you two hearing me?"
