The next day, Su Chen, Cheng Dexuan, and Liang Jiong went on a trip, followed by more than a hundred guards, to visit some famous places and historic sites in Yangzhou City.

Cheng Dexuan avoided the crowded streets and chose the beautiful Baoan Lake. He rented a boat and several people got on the boat and wandered around the lake.

Lotus flowers are everywhere, the breeze is blowing, the lake is long, there are some small islands in the lake, there are pavilions and pavilions on the islands, cloud trees, smoked reeds, white walls and black tiles, there are good scenery everywhere.

In Jiangnan gardens, every inch of land has its own unique wonders. You can see exquisiteness everywhere, every plant, every tree, every pavilion, every stone and every water is carefully carved and decorated, which makes people feel happy. This is the beauty of Yangzhou.

Su Chen looked at the lake and felt calm. He had traveled to Yangzhou in later generations. This protected lake was also called Slender West Lake. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Hang, a Qiantang poet at that time, came to Yangzhou and saw the scenery of Yangzhou.

After seeing the beautiful scenery, he compared it with the West Lake in his hometown and wrote a poem: "It is also a pot that sells gold, so it should be called Slender West Lake."

From then on, Yangzhou Baoan Lake was called Slender West Lake. This name is very vivid. Slender West Lake is indeed much thinner than Hangzhou West Lake.

Slender West Lake is a strip landscape formed by connecting cities from different eras such as Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it has always maintained an interactive relationship with the water source of the Grand Canal.

Cheng and Liang were the principal and deputy envoys of the envoy, and they personally accompanied Su Chen on his travels. Firstly, they had the responsibility of supervision. Secondly, they traveled with such a great talent and got closer to each other. If they could see him bursting with inspiration and writing poems with his own eyes,

Writing lyrics is a great blessing. When I returned to Bianjing and talked about it with some relatives and friends, I felt that it was full of topics.

Especially when I go to the land of brothels, I can also brag a few words. Su Chen and I traveled on the same boat through Yangzhou. Such and such famous poems and articles were written when they were together, which can make many talented Huadans and singers pity them.

People became curious.

Cheng Dexuan smiled and said: "Master Su, how is this lake?"

Su Chen nodded and said, "Well, it's very beautiful, not inferior to Xuanwu Lake outside Jinling City!"

Liang Jiong was very interested and asked: "When the young master saw this beautiful scenery, was he inspired to write a masterpiece as a souvenir?"

Seeing that the two of them had some expectations, Su Chen didn't want to be disobedient. After all, the other party agreed to accompany them on the trip, which was considered a great honor. Therefore, Su Chen responded politely and nodded politely: "I just happened to look at this scene, and I felt something, so I can write a poem."

a!"

"Oh, what poem?"

"All ears!"

The two envoys were very interested.

Su Chen looked at the turquoise lake and Shugang Mountain in the distance, and wrote a poem: "The weeping poplars are constantly catching the remaining weeds, and the wild goose tooth rainbow bridge is like a painting. It is also a pot of gold, so it should be called Slender West Lake. The scenery of this lake is beautiful

, no less than the West Lake in Hangzhou Prefecture, so I think it can be called the Slender West Lake as a souvenir."

"What a poem, and the words "Slender West Lake" are quite appropriate. It echoes the north and the south, how wonderful!"

"Since Mr. Su has written an article praising the name, from now on Yangzhou's Baoan Lake will probably be renamed Slender West Lake." Cheng Dexuan said with a smile, because he believed in Su Chen's influence. As long as this poem spreads,

The name will inevitably be changed as a result.

Su Chen said a few words of modesty, satisfying the curiosity of the two of them, and then changed the topic.

"The ancient temple on the mountains ahead is the Daming Temple?"

Cheng Dexuan nodded and said: "Exactly, I heard that incense is very effective, it is quite famous in Yangzhou, and the scenery is also wonderful!"

"Okay, after our lake tour is over, we can go visit Daming Temple."

"Can!"

Daming Temple stands majestically on the middle peak of Shugang, close to mountains and rivers, overlooking the beautiful and graceful Slender West Lake. Daming Temple integrates Buddhist temples, cultural relics and garden scenery, and has always enjoyed "the first view in Huaidong"

It is famous because it was built during the reign of Emperor Xiaowu of the Southern Song Dynasty, so it is called "Daming Temple".

In the afternoon, Su Chen, Cheng Dexuan, and Liang Jiong went to Daming Temple for a visit.

.........

At night, Su Chen finished his one-day trip to Yangzhou and returned to the small courtyard where he temporarily lived.

Bai Susu, Peng Jingjing, and Liu Menong also went shopping in the morning, went to the designated rouge shop, bought rouge gouache, and secretly completed Su Chen's instructions.

At this time, the four people gathered in the room and exchanged information.

Su Chen asked, "How is your trip going smoothly today?"

Bai Susu nodded and said: "Everything went well. This time there were more than a dozen guards of the Song Dynasty following us. When we bought gouache at Rouge Shop, we handed the note about the defense and guard information here and the sentry in the yard to the shopkeeper, and

He also gave us a note.

"We have come back to see it. He means that the manpower is ready to monitor the mansion at all times and prepare for rescue operations. The ships going out to sea are also ready. As long as we leave from here, we can change equipment and board the ship, and go to overseas islands first.

Escape, retreat routes and carriages out of the city are all ready."

Su Chen nodded and said: "Very good, we will take action tomorrow night and act according to the plan. Since there will be an attack here tomorrow night and the buildings will be set on fire. Therefore, officers and soldiers will definitely track down the murderer the next day and strictly guard the city. We must pass through it overnight.

Leave the city by water."

Peng Jingjing asked: "Ms. Sir, do you think the people of Song Dynasty can believe that we were all killed in this operation and that our bodies are not alive?"

Su Chen replied: "Perhaps I can't fully believe it, I can only half-believe it. In fact, there will be people who want to harm me this time. They should be from the Northern Han Dynasty, the Dangqiang people in the west, the Khitan people in the grassland, etc. They may not

We hope that the peace talks between the Tang and Song Dynasties can go smoothly, and we don’t want Sulang from Jiangzuo to go north to Bianjing to proclaim himself a minister, so they will also send people to commit suicide on the way. But if we don’t see the bodies, they will all be buried in the fire and their appearance will be completely destroyed. Indeed

It will make people have some doubts.

"For disguise now, we can only drop all the things we carry in the room so that the number of corpses can be matched. In this way, the corpses will be burned and there will be no evidence of death. Even if the people of the Song Dynasty have suspicions, they will not be able to find us.

Whereabouts, they will only accept this reality, and it is possible that they may even take the opportunity to turn around and use troops against the Tang State again."

Bai Susu said worriedly: "Then Jinling City and Runzhou City are not in danger?"

Su Chen nodded and said: "Yes, so before leaving, we told the Bai family elders and some close friends that if they can go south, try to live there for a while and temporarily leave Jinling and Runzhou. These two cities are to be attacked by the Song Army and the Wu Yue Army.

The main goal is because the wealth in the city is too great.

"As for some cities in the southern part of the Tang Kingdom, the main force of the Song army will not attack them one by one. Instead, they will let the civil servants and generals who stayed behind to recruit and support the war with war, and use the Southern Tang soldiers who surrendered to the Song Dynasty to deal with those armed forces that did not surrender.

, and the real elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty will retreat, so if you want to save your life, temporarily going to Hongzhou and Jianzhou is a good choice for wealthy families to save their lives. "

Bai Susu nodded and said: "I reminded my parents of this. Although they didn't say it clearly, they promised me that they would leave Runzhou temporarily to avoid the limelight and wait until the Song Army and Wu Yue Army completely retreated before going back. It's just a pity that Runzhou

The common people and the common people of Jinling.

Su Chen lamented: "There is no way. By doing this, the Tang royal family is destined to destroy the Great Wall and be destroyed. God has committed evil, but it can be violated. If you commit evil, you will not live. These are all the sins of the Tang royal family, and they are destined to die.

Eat the evil fruit."
