There is a semi-natural and semi-artificial large lake called Houdehai in the palace garden of Yong'an City. Although this lake imitates the Jiangnan garden style, it also has royal characteristics. The lake covers an area of ​​more than 500 acres. Who in the world except the royal family can have such magnificence?

There is a half-natural and half-manufactured island in the Houde Sea called Tianhua Island. The circumference of the island is 1,950 paces. The name of the island is Tianhua, which is taken from the sentence "Wuhua Tianbao" in the poem of the former prince An Pian.

, the ruins of a bull fight shot by dragon light."

It was the weather in late spring, the sun was bright but not hot, the lake was clear and sparkling, and water birds of all sizes were playing on the lake. At this time, a five-foot-long golden dragon boat rowed over on the lake.

The young eunuch and the palace maid slowly rocked the boat forward. Yin Guang was sitting on the bow of the boat with a fishing rod in his hand, with a wooden barrel beside him. The young eunuch Yu Fu stood respectfully behind Yin Guang holding a fly whisk.

After Yin Guang spent an hour every morning training his more than 200 female sumo wrestlers, he would take Yu Fu, Wen Xiu and others to the Houde Sea to go boating and fish for an hour on time, and then go back to do carpentry work in the afternoon.

This happened every day. Yang Jingzhong also sent people to investigate many times. The men responsible for monitoring the emperor reported that the emperor was just having fun, so Yang Jingzhong was used to this and didn't care.

At this time, Yin Guang, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, was staring at the fishing line under the water without blinking. He suddenly saw the fishing line sinking sharply and was secretly happy. This must be a big fish biting the hook.

Yin Guang seized the right moment and lifted it up. He was overjoyed to see that it was a big carp weighing more than three kilograms! Yin Guang threw the fish onto the boat and watched it flapping happily. Yu Fu quickly threw the whisk aside and came to help.

Yin Guang caught the fish and put it into the barrel.

Yin Guang laughed loudly, "I'm so lucky today, I caught a big fish! Yu Fu, come here, sit next to me and watch me catch another big fish for you!" Yu Fu responded with a smile.

After a while, he sat next to the emperor and watched him fishing.

Yin Guang was talking to Yu Fu about fishing techniques, and while he was talking, he asked softly, "Yu Fu, how is the news you have been gathering in the past few days? Who else is available in the palace?"

Yu Fu said softly: "Your Majesty, a few days ago I accidentally heard that the deputy general manager Wei Dequan complained privately to the general manager. He was just afraid of the general manager's power and did not dare to take any action. I have been paying attention to this person these days.

, if possible, Wei Dequan should be available to His Majesty."

Yin Guang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, this is a big fish. Look, I just said it was a big fish!" Sure enough, another big fish was fished out of the water by Yin Guang, and Yin Guang laughed.

Yu Fu quickly helped the emperor catch the fish and put it into the barrel.

Yin Guang was in a good mood and sat on the bow of the boat again with his fishing rod, while Yu Fu sat beside him. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew inexplicably on the lake. In an instant, the waves surged, and the big boat started to rock in the wind and waves. Several people rocking the boat

The little eunuch exclaimed, "The wind and waves are strong, please be careful, Your Majesty!" Wenxiu clung to the hull of the boat, her face turned pale with fright.

Yin Guangda, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, was angry and shouted: "I am the majestic emperor! Is it the king's land in the whole world? Is it the king's ministers who are on the shore of the land? What's more, this is the royal lake? What monster in the lake dares to disobey me?

I am here, who dares to cause a storm in the lake?" Before he finished speaking, the storm calmed down.

At this moment, there was only a roaring sound on the water surface, and a golden carp jumped out of the water and jumped into Yin Guang's arms. Yin Guang and Yu Fu were greatly surprised. They saw the golden carp blinking at Yin Guang, as if to wink at Yin Guang.

Say something widely.

Yin Guangda was so happy that he held the golden carp in both hands and said silently in his heart, "Fish, you want to turn into a dragon."

No? I wonder what fate you have with me, that you can jump into my arms with one leap? If one day I can transform into a dragon and take flight, and truly rule the world, just blink your eyes again." The fish was indeed eager again.

Guang blinked.

Yin Guang silently wished in his heart: "If one day, I can take back the power from the eunuchs and reorganize the country, I will grant you the ability to transform into a dragon!" The fish jumped in Yin Guang's hand and winked at Yin Guang.

After Yin Guang congratulated him, he threw the golden carp into the lake again. All the eunuchs were amazed.

Yu Fu asked strangely: "Your Majesty, golden carps are very rare. Why don't you take them back and keep them in the palace, and then throw them back into the lake?"

Yin Guang said with a smile: "I won't be fishing today. Let's release the two big carp in the bucket! It is precisely because the golden fish is rare and cannot be found in the pond that it cannot be brought back to the palace to raise. Legend has it that this

There is an eye in the Houde Sea, leading to the East China Sea. I don’t know whether it is true or not. If it is true, this fish may have come from the East China Sea! Anyway, I am very interested today. Let’s go to Yonghe Temple to burn incense.

!”

There is a Tianhua Island in the Houde Sea, and there is a Yonghe Temple on Tianhua Island. Usually there is a Yonghe Bridge that leads directly to the island from the dry road, but today Yin Guang came by boat unexpectedly.

Yin Guang stood at the bow of the boat, with his hands folded, his face calm, but his heart was as surging as the lake water. He had asked Yu Fu to do something these days, and he said it all on the boat. The boat could not reach the sky or the ground. Yang Jingzhong sent

How could the people who came eavesdrop? The dignified emperor was so careful to guard against a eunuch. How could Yin Guang not be angry or resentful?

In the Yong'an City Palace, the Jinluan Hall is called Yonghe Hall, and there is Yonghe Temple and Yonghe Bridge on Tianhua Island. Since the temple can be built on Tianhua Island in the imperial garden and is named Yonghe, it must be a royal temple.

In front of him was Tianhua Island, shaded by green pines and cypresses. Yin Guang abandoned his boat and landed, taking only Yu Fu with him. He turned around and said to several eunuchs and maids on the boat: "I will go to the temple to burn a stick of incense. You guys will wait here."

, I am too lazy to move around today, and I will take a boat when I come back soon." All the eunuchs agreed together and stayed on the boat.

Yin Guang walked in front with his hands behind his back. Yu Fu walked behind Yin Guang with his whisk in his arms. Soon he came to the gate of Yonghe Temple. There were two young novices in monk robes cleaning the temple with brooms. They saw Yin Guang walking towards the temple from a distance.

Come, bow your head and salute, a young novice hurries back to report the news to the abbot.

Yin Guang walked up to the Ji'an Hall, cleaned his hands, offered incense to the Buddha statue, and worshiped the Buddha with a pious attitude. Yu Fu knelt down behind him. After finishing the incense, Yin Guang and Yu Fu exited the Ji'an Hall and stood at the door of the hall to look around.

.

At this moment, a clear Buddhist chant sounded, and a tall monk who was over sixty years old, wearing a vermilion cassock and with nine ring scars on his head, walked slowly and came to Yin Guang with a smile on his face.

, put his hands together and saluted, "Your Majesty, this poor monk is polite, please come to the abbot to have tea."

Yin Guang also put his hands together and returned the greeting, "I have seen Zen Master Fa Kong, and I am here to disturb you. Zen Master, please!" The young eunuch Yu Fu followed closely, and the three of them came to the abbot's room. Yin Guang sat down, and Monk Fa Kong poured wine for Yin Guang.

After having tea, Yu Fu stood respectfully behind Yin Guang.

Zen Master Fakong’s lay name is Yin, and he is Yin Guang’s great-uncle by generation. He saw through the world of mortals and became a monk. It has been more than forty years now and he is currently the abbot monk of Yonghe Temple.

Yin Guang asked: "Zen Master, today when I was fishing on the Houde Sea, a golden carp jumped into my arms and blinked excitedly. I don't know what the omen is. I would like to ask the Zen Master to enlighten me."

Monk Fakong put his hands together and said with a smile: "All things are born with spirits. If a goldfish is in your arms, it will naturally be

The Lord has a happy event, why does Your Majesty need to ask me?"

Yin Guang sighed and said: "There is the Great Xia Kingdom in the north that is struggling against each other, and there are powerful vassal kings outside. How can I be happy about this?"

Monk Fakong did not answer, but just smiled and said, "Your Majesty, just drink tea. Everything is destined by God. Just let everything happen. I have been a monk for more than 40 years, and I have lost everything." Before he could finish his words, he quietly threw it to Yin Guang.

Yin Guang winked. Suddenly, Yin Guang took a sip of tea and touched his mouth with his hand.

Yin Guang stood up, clasped his hands and said, "Disciple, I won't bother you today. I'll come to worship the Buddha another day. Then I'll ask the Zen master to give lectures on Buddhism. I'll take my leave." Monk Fakong returned the greeting with a smile.

Yu Fu also bowed to Monk Fa Kong and followed Yin Guang. They left the abbot's room and Monk Fa Kong sent them out. The master and servant left Yonghe Temple, turned around and asked the monk to stay, and walked slowly to look around the island.

After arriving at the shore and boarding the boat, Yin Guang sat alone on the bow looking at the lake, thinking about something.

Yu Fu was still chatting and laughing with several eunuchs and maids on the boat as usual. Yin Guang took advantage of the bow of the boat and secretly crushed the wax pill in his hand, took out a small note from the pill, and lowered his head to read it.

Afterwards, his face became happy, but he immediately stuffed the note into his mouth as if nothing had happened and chewed it. He turned around and said, "Yu Fu, bring the fish food!"

Yu Fu agreed and brought over a small green box containing fish food. Yin Guang took the box, opened it, grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it on the lake. Suddenly, the fish tide surged, and many fish competed for food.

Jumping out of the water, the lake suddenly became spectacular.

Yin Guang said with a smile, "Sure enough, the sea is vast and the fish can jump, but I don't know how big the real sea is. One day I must go and see the real sea, the real rivers and lakes."

…

At the Yamen of Meizhou County, Lingnan Road, County Governor Zhao Yingqi was sitting in the barracks with a frown on his face, discussing official matters with Zhou Guyang, the code official, Liu Mingqing, the meritorious officer, and Wang Hexuan. It turned out that Zhao Yingqi had just received the news from Tengshan County Magistrate.

, there are more than a thousand bandits plundering the countryside and gathering in the mountains and forests in Tengshan County. The strong soldiers in the county are not brave enough to quell the bandits. Please report to the county governor to send troops to suppress the bandits and quell the bandits.

Several people were discussing. They didn't know where this group of thousands of bandits came from. I'm afraid the county governor had to petition the court to mobilize a large number of garrison troops to suppress the bandits. This would waste too much time. At this time, a squad leader came to report,

Zhenwei Colonel Zhu Juxian asked to see the county governor.

In the military room, several people looked at each other. Zhou Guyang smiled and said: "By the way, the Lingnan Prince's Mansion has soldiers. Why don't you ask the Lingnan Prince to send troops to suppress the bandits?"

Zhao Yingqi pondered for a moment, but did not answer. He said to the leader of the squad who reported the news, "Please invite Lieutenant Zhu!" After thinking about it, he sighed, "I'd better go and pick him up in person. Liu Gongcao, do you have any good tea?"

Make a pot for everyone to try."

Liu Mingqing, the meritorious officer, said with a bitter face, "Master Sheriff, I only have some good tea, and you have been drinking it in just a few days!"

Zhou Guyang smiled and said: "Wait a minute, I still have half a can of your tea. You old fox promised me a few days ago, but you haven't given it to me yet!"

Wang Hexuan laughed loudly, "My lords, let's not deal with the bandits in Tengshan County. Let's get rid of the bandits who came to the county governor's office to rob them!"
Chapter completed!
