Chapter 245 Peacock Terrace
The next morning, the wind and snow remained.
Zhu Pingan got up early and practiced calligraphy on the table by the window with a black wooden board hanging on his wrists. After everyone else in the inn gradually got up, Zhu Pingan put away the black wooden board, put the brushes and other things in the school bag one by one, and put the bed on the bed. He packed up his things and went downstairs with two pancakes made by Mrs. Chen.
In the lobby of the inn, Zhu Pingan ordered a bowl of mutton soup like last night, and ate it with oil cakes.
"The shop owner is in trouble, which direction is the official road going north?"
Zhu Ping'an had breakfast, and when paying the bill, he asked the shopkeeper about the route.
"Don't dare, there are two official roads going north in this town, where is the guest officer going?" The shopkeeper said in a friendly manner.
"Go to the capital." Zhu Pingan replied.
"For the capital, then go in this direction. After passing Peacock Terrace, there is an official road leading directly to Luzhou Mansion, and there will be more roads to the capital." The shopkeeper led Zhu Pingan to the door and pointed in one direction Tell Zhu Pingan the route.
Luzhou Prefecture is the modern Hefei. Since ancient times, Hefei has been a battleground for military strategists. During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Wei and Soochow fought in Hefei for decades. In the Song Dynasty, this place was called Luzhou, and in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was the frontier of anti-golden. It's not bad to go to the capital through Hefei, just to see what this battleground for military strategists was like in ancient times.
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands to thank the shopkeeper.
After asking the way, Zhu Pingan notified the store clerk to check out, packed up the things, and the store clerk helped them take the things to the backyard and put them on the back of the well-fed Shamat black horse. He took out a long-collared rabbit fur cloak and put it on.
This cloak was specially made by his mother, Chen, for himself to protect himself from the cold and wind on the road. The rabbit fur was made from the rabbit skin that his elder brother Zhu Pingchuan put on on the mountain.
"It's snowing today, the guest officer might as well stay for a while, and leave after the snow stops." At the door, a group of friendly shopkeepers persuaded.
"Thanks to the shopkeeper, the snow is not cold, it is a good time to go." Zhu Pingan got on the horse, and slightly cupped his hands to thank the shopkeeper. Then he drove the horse along the route indicated by the shopkeeper just now.
The small town is not big. After riding for about ten minutes, I saw the Peacock Terrace that the shopkeeper mentioned.
This small town is so small, Zhu Ping'an thought that the Peacock Terrace mentioned by the shopkeeper was just the name of a small hill, but he didn't expect that the Peacock Terrace in front of him was a group of antique buildings. The Peacock Terrace occupies a rather wide area. The building consists of upper and lower floors, and there are corridors and several stone tablets around it. The architecture of Peacock Terrace is magnificent and exquisite. The upper floor is a platform and a temple-style roof, and the gorgeous corridor extends to the lower floor.
"The peacock flies southeast, wanders five miles and one"
On the stone closet window in the promenade in front of the Peacock Terrace, there is such a piece of "The Peacock Flies Southeast", which is well written and full of sadness.
Uh, remember.
In a small town in Huaining County, peacocks fly southeast, yes. This is the birthplace of "The Peacock Flying Southeast", which is collectively called the "Shuangbi of Yuefu" together with the "Mulan Poetry" of the Northern Dynasties, and it is also the place where Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi were buried together.
In Huaining County for so long, I actually forgot about such a place. Fortunately, I passed by here in the exam, otherwise I would have missed a sad historical site. It is really better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.
The Peacock Flies to the Southeast is an article that modern school education pays more attention to. It tells the touching love story of Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi during the Jian'an annual inspection in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Jiao Zhongqing is a low-level civil servant, quite capable, and Liu Lanzhi is very beautiful and talented. However, Jiao Zhongqing's mother was very dissatisfied with Liu Lanzhi, and tried every means to make things difficult for Liu Lanzhi with various unreasonable reasons and excuses, and finally drove Liu Lanzhi back to her natal home.
Liu Lanzhi is beautiful and talented. After returning to her natal home, many local tyrants and dignitaries came to propose marriage, and one of the heavyweight proposers was the prefect. But Liu Lanzhi loved Jiao Zhongqing deeply and rejected all of these. Because of this, Liu Lanzhi's brother often scolded her for being ignorant. Under the persecution of her elder brother, Liu Lanzhi had to accept the marriage of the prefect's family. Jiao Zhongqing also loved Liu Lanzhi deeply, and after knowing it, she came to look for Liu Lanzhi. Unable to resist the cruel reality, the two went to Huangquan together.
The tragic love story of the two has also been handed down.
In this regard, Zhu Pingan regretted and sighed. If he were himself, he would definitely not let this tragedy happen.
I paid homage to Peacock Terrace for a long time. Zhu Pingan sighed, then drove his horse away from Peacock Terrace, and headed north along the official road.
The official road that has snowed is much easier than the official road that has been rained. Shama Te’s dark horse seems to ignore the wind and cold, and walks happily all the way with its head held high in the snow. Maybe this guy feels that the official road is better than the mountain road. Let's go.
Walking north along the official road, you can see the shadows of villages on both sides of the official road from time to time, unlike yesterday when you walked for a long time without seeing a single family.
It was almost noon when Zhu Ping'an vaguely saw a small village. After walking for a while, Zhu Ping'an got off the official road and went to this small village near the official road.
Because the terrain of the small village is located at the mouth of the valley, the originally tight wind became more intense under the action of the terrain. The strong north wind swept the snow from the ground, like a white tornado, covering the sky and blurring the vision.
Zhu Pingan led the Shamat black horse, and walked towards the village in the white snow. The snow at the entrance of the village had reached the ankle, and the snow under the wall was almost half a meter high.
Although the snow is heavy, the village is full of anger. A group of chicks in the village, led by a few roosters, gathered around a firewood and straw stack, looking for food in a leisurely manner. A few bored roosters flapped their wings and pecked each other for the ownership of a certain pullet, causing the snow to fly wildly.
On a flat ground at the entrance of the village, there were a few urchins who set up a basket on the snow, sprinkled some grains under it, and lay on the side with their buttocks pouted, waiting to catch sparrows.
Seeing Zhu Ping'an riding a horse, the sparrows flew away in shock, causing several urchins to look at Zhu Ping'an with unkind faces while sniffing their noses.
"I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree; if you want to cross this road, leave money to buy roads."
A little kid with a snot-nosed bubble stuck in front of Zhu Ping'an's horse with his hips stuck up, his head raised in a bully manner. Then several other little kids also stood behind the early kid as backup, and they all looked at Zhu Pingan with unfriendly expressions.
Looking at the brats with snot bubbles, Zhu Ping'an raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"I'm a bird demon under Snow Demon, with great abilities. I heard that you were here to murder my subordinates, so I turned into a human form to find out. I didn't expect to be caught by me. Tsk tsk, I heard that children's meat is the best. ate."
Zhu Pingan rode on horseback, took a deep breath in the direction of the children, and then licked his tongue in an intoxicated manner.
"A monster."
A few brats heard the words, then looked at Zhu Pingan's appearance of wanting to eat meat, screamed, and ran away.
"Uh, I'm kidding you guys."
Seeing how the brats ran away, Zhu Pingan couldn't laugh or cry, these brats were too innocent.
"I won't be fooled by you!"
"Don't chase after us, we have boy pee."
Hearing the words, a few brats made a face at Zhu Ping'an, ran more happily, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
