In the blink of an eye, the midsummer was getting hotter and the weather was getting hotter. The retired officers and soldiers bid farewell to the lake quickly spread, making it known that the young emperor was recuperating in Yanxiang Garden, Gushan, and naturally attracted many enthusiasts to wander around Gushan on cruise ships every day, and there were also people who wanted to encounter traitors. The guard group also strengthened their vigilance and dispatched warships to the lake to patrol. No cruise ship was allowed to approach Gushan within a hundred steps.

According to news from the city, after a long discussion on Chen Yizhong's crimes were discussed, the Empress Dowager suddenly issued an imperial edict to kill him in the heavenly prison. However, she also thought that she had made a contribution to support her and did not implicate her family. She gave her coffin and sent her back to her hometown. However, she ordered local officials to strictly restrain her family and not leave her place without leaving her place. The Ministry of Justice then killed all her accomplices in the suburbs, and revealed the three of them to take the body and bury her family.

Zhao Mengqi was exiled to his family for pretending to be a clan relative for exile for two thousand miles away. Although he escaped, the feeling of exile was not good, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to survive the day he returned home after being pardoned. However, Zhao Bing also saw from this that the Empress Dowager had already understood that his true identity was true, so he did not take the initiative to kill him and just exiled him to his own life.

After Chen Yizhong was sentenced to death and Zhao Mengqi was dealt with, Zhao Bing thought that he could also end his "rest" and was about to return to the palace. But he guessed wrongly this time. Although the empress dowager relaxed the "regulation" but did not mean to return to Beijing, which made him very puzzled. But there was no other way, so he could only continue to live a semi-retired and semi-seclusion life.

The hot and humid summer is the most difficult, and the rains and rains all the time have made Zhao Bing feel irritated. He looked at the West Lake in the cold hall, shrouded in the rain and fog, and it was a rare calm at this moment. If it were usual, the lake was already full of cruise ships. Among them were hand-rowed wooden oars, small boats, bicycle boats, sailboats, melon boats that rely on the wind, etc., but this was divided into three levels.

The melon kettle boat is the largest number of cruise ships in West Lake. This kind of boat has a shaped like a melon, with a cloth tent on it, and a round table and a rattan chair in it. While tourists can enjoy tea, play chess and chat on the boat, while exploring the mountains and rivers around the West Lake, and achieve the purpose of sightseeing and leisure by visiting the lake. Bicycles and boats are often ships built by royal relatives and wealthy families. They are specially designed to play in the lake. They are supported by green cloth curtains, allowing one or two guests to sit on it, and the decoration is particularly exquisite.

The advantages of West Lake are suitable for people to enjoy all year round. It is just that the content and methods of viewing are different. As the saying goes: in spring, flowers and willows compete for beauty, in summer, lotus pomegranates bloom, in autumn, osmanthus fragrant, plum blossoms break jade, and auspicious snow fly. The scenery of the four seasons is different, and those who enjoy enjoying it are endless. Citizens in the capital learn to make full use of West Lake's tourism resources and hold various festival celebrations to achieve a long-term effect of visiting West Lake.

Of course, if there is a demand, someone will provide it. West Lake cruise ships have already formed an industry to build boats for attractive use. Zhao Bing has seen that there are no less than hundreds of boats of all sizes. The large ones are about twenty feet long and can accommodate a hundred people. Five hundred materials are about ten feet long and can accommodate thirty or fifty people. Even if there are two or three hundred materials, they can accommodate thirty or twenty people. The boats are all extremely exquisitely built, with carved railings and painted tiles and magnificent decorations. In addition, the boats are larger and walk on the lake like flat ground, just like modern yachts on the river, providing one-stop service for food, drink, and entertainment.

However, not all those who visit the lake are rich and powerful. They can afford such high-consumption boats. And those small cruise ships do not provide food, so a mobile merchant ship called "moving boats" was born. They refer to various small boats that sell food and serve tea and wine in the West Lake. They not only sell soup, but also provide vegetables, vegetables, chickens, jellyfish, snails, etc., and even provide banquets after the cruise ship. It can be said that you can enjoy five-star service for just a few small money, but Zhao Bing has lived by the West Lake for so long and has not had the opportunity to enjoy it.

"Officials, if they had caught up with this weather many years ago, everyone would have blamed the Lin'an Prefect!" Seeing that the little emperor was depressed, Wang De had nothing to say to relieve his boredom.

"Oh, there is also this matter. What does this weather change have to do with the prefect?" Zhao Bing said in surprise when he heard this, wondering in his heart whether this prefect still has to care about God. Not everyone can do this Lin'an prefect.

"The official family thought that when the peace came, the wealthy families would buy boats, and each had their own names, saying: Hundred flowers, ten kinds of brocades, seven treasures, gold, golden lions, who ships, bad horses, Luo boats, Jinsheng, yellow boats, Dong boats, and Liu boats. There are many names, which are strange and strange. At that time, the prefect of Lin'an was Zhao Jiezhai, and he could not avoid the customs. He also built a lake boat, called Wulong." Seeing that it really aroused the interest of the little emperor, Wang De kept a secret and said, "But every time this boat was held out of the dock, it would suddenly start, and the storm on the lake would make a big fuss. All the boats were afraid. They did not succeed again and again, so they abandoned the lake boats on the shore and became waste."

"Haha, there is such a strange thing. Is this ship still there?" Zhao Bing realized the reason and asked with a smile.

"The official family has been so many years, and the oolong ship has probably turned into a rotten wood, and there is no trace to be found!" Seeing that His Majesty smiled, Wang De said with a bitter face.

"What a pity, what a pity!" Zhao Bing said with a heartache after hearing this.

"Everyone in the world says that this ship is ominous, why is it ruined? It's a pity for the officials to whine?" Wang De didn't understand now and asked with a frown.

"Hey, if we get this ship, wouldn't we want the wind to come and the rain come? As long as we drive the ship out during the battle, wouldn't we defeat the enemy without a single shot and a bullet? You can't let such a sharp weapon be wasted, it's a pity!" Zhao Bing pointed Wang De's nose and said.

"It's a pity to say this!" Wang De immediately said with a sad face.

"Idiot, I mean that those wealthy families can get a few times to appreciate the smoke and waves in one year. They spend all day leisurely on Puyu Islands, but they are just disturbing the world and comparing with each other, but they have to waste a lot of money. Even this garden is the same. The late emperors have only been there once or twice in their lifetime, but they have to consume a lot of manpower, financial resources, and waste their country." Zhao Bing sighed.

"Yes, yes, what the officials say is very true. They are just showing off each other and not understanding the sufferings of the people. How can the Shangguan family be frugal and compassionate with the people's strength?" Wang De quickly responded.

"Have you ever seen the late emperor traveling to the lake on a boat?" Zhao Bing thought about it and said.

"The official family, Emperor Ningzong is in the imperial family, but he rarely travels for happiness. The palace and the other halls are no longer added, so he has no chance to see it in person. However, there are imperial boats on the West Lake for the emperor, concubines and princes to use." Wang De replied, "The imperial boats are hung with pearl curtains and brocade curtains, hanging seven-jewel pearls, dragon boats, shuttles, poles, flower baskets and other things. The palace Jishao tribe is like a god, with a rich fragrance in the sky, and the flowers and willows are beautiful, which is very gorgeous."

"According to rumors of the old man in the palace, Emperor Lizong also made a boat when he was an old man, and he used fragrant nanmu and gold to make it. It was also very extravagant. However, he never used it once, but the young man had never seen it. Although the young man had never seen the late emperor traveling to West Lake, he had been fortunate to see the Han princess who received the order and the prince-in-law Yangzhen, and the cultural relics were also prosperous for a while, as if they were peaceful. Looking at the city, the people of the capital stopped the market. Although the scene had been many years, it was still in front of him."

"It seems that I have to build an imperial ship to go down the lake!" Zhao Bing smiled bitterly after hearing this. The root of this luxury trend is actually in the royal family, which has achieved a move that is effective. It would be fine if it was peaceful, but it could also promote consumption and develop the tertiary industry. However, when the enemy is in a hurry, he is still thinking about doing this, and he is looking for death.

"The official should indeed build one, so that it can show the majesty of the royal family, and you can also prepare the Queen Mother to visit the lake!" Wang De said with a smile as he heard this.

"Okay, tomorrow you will be responsible for driving the Sheji to the West Lake to me. You will have the ability to suppress all the cruise ships in the lake. Let's see who can compare with me!" Zhao Bing said with a sneer.

"Official family, how can I have that ability!" Wang De wanted to slap himself a few words when he heard this. Why did he always talk too much today and make the little emperor unhappy!

"I want to visit the lake now, so you can make arrangements immediately. If it is delayed, let you stay on this lonely mountain for the rest of your life." Zhao Bing said with a straight face.

"This...this, let's make arrangements!" Wang De stared at him with a cold face, was stunned for a moment, and replied with a thorn in his mouth...

Two quarters of an hour later, Wang De came to invite His Majesty to board the ship. Zhao Bing had already changed into a regular uniform. The guards around him had already taken off their military uniforms, all dressed as servants, but they could not hide their murderous aura after changing their clothes. They looked like a group of evil servants accompanying a playboat for a big dandy master. Surrounded by everyone, he came to the dock on the island and couldn't help laughing when he saw his cruise ship. His outfit was in vain. He actually used the navy's dragon boat as a cruise ship. From the ministers in the court to the ordinary soldiers in the army, everyone knew that the warrior with the dragon head was his car. Isn't it like stealing the bell?

"Please be on the boat!" Zheng Yong looked at the little emperor with a bitter face and said with a smile on his face.

"The official family is not a small matter of poor work, but I really couldn't find a suitable cruise ship for a while, so I had to borrow this ship." Wang De said with a sad face. Just now, the little emperor ordered himself to set up the ship, but after being taught, he naturally could not find the boat on the lake. It was not safe. After thinking about it, he still asked Zheng Yong for help, but he had no choice but to use the warship that His Majesty was on schedule.

"Everyone said I was rude and ignorant. Now it seems that you are even more chewing peonies. You can actually think of using warships as cruise ships, but in the future, it may be a good story!" Zhao Bing shook his head, shook Wang De's hand, and jumped onto the ship. When he got on the ship, he saw that except for the oarsmen, there were only a group of guards and a few people around him followed him on the ship. Fortunately, he didn't bring all the gunners, otherwise he would really think that he wanted to bomb West Lake!

This was not the first time Zhao Bing was parading on a dragon boat. A while ago in Ezhou, he was eating fish and drinking with Wen Tianxiang and others on the river, so everyone knew how to arrange it. The guards were all on the bottom cabin and the second floor. Only Wang De brought a few small yellow gates and palace maids to serve on the third floor. The rest were Zheng Yong, Chen Dun and the unpopular Yang Shilong. In order to liven up the atmosphere, he brought several officials from the imperial court. He could recite poems and essays and wrote more gentleness, but they were all destroyed by the dragon boat.

The top cabin of the Warrior was a command room. Everyone had already opened the portholes and cabin doors, which was bright, so they could barely see the lake view. The soft couches and short tables had been arranged according to the habits of the little emperor, and seasonal fruits were placed on it. A charcoal stove was arranged on the side for making tea, and irrelevant items were packed aside, which was spacious. After everyone boarded the ship, there was a small warship on the front and back each on guard. The Warrior was sandwiched in the middle and drove away from the dock and headed towards the lake.

"Although I was born in Lin'an, I still can't tell the difference between the north and the south. This is the first time I have been sailing on this West Lake. I know nothing about allusions. Please give me some comments!" Zhao Bing also visited West Lake in his previous life. At that time, when the tickets were cancelled, there were crowds of tourists. When I visited, I was so swept away without the introduction of the tour guide. Besides, the passing of time has long been beyond recognition, and perhaps only the name is left.

"Your Majesty, the convenience in front is the blessed bridge and the only passage to Gushan!" At this time, someone pointed at the arch bridge in front and said.

"Guiyu, is this blessed bridge also called the Broken Bridge?" Baidi divides West Lake into Lihu and Outer Lake. There is a bridge at the water divider point, connecting Gushan at one end and connecting Baidi at the other end. Visitors have to pass through this bridge if they want to visit Gushan. Zhao Bing looked at the style of the bridge different from his previous life, but from the location, it should be a Broken Bridge. He asked again. Guiyu is the head of the second office of the Imperial Front Office, Ma Duanlin, the eldest son of Ma Tingluan. He participated in the imperial examination and was the first in the canal examination. He had lived with his father in Lin'an for a while and still had some understanding of the scenery here.

"Your Majesty said it is right. This is the starting point of the Baidi. It was broken because the Baidi from Gushan came here, so it is commonly known as the Broken Bridge!" Ma Duanlin replied.

"Oh, that's where the White Snake and Xu Xian first met?" Zhao Bing looked at the speech.

"Your Majesty also knows this allusion!" Ma Duanlin said in surprise, "This is exactly where the legendary snake fairy white snake and the mortal Xu Xian meet in the rain, and this bridge is also famous all over the world because of the legend!"

"Haha, I don't know if we are destined to be together today, so we can meet an immortal to talk to him!" Zhao Bing breathed a sigh of relief. He mentioned this matter without his brain. Fortunately, the Song Dynasty already had it, otherwise he would have to talk more.

"Your Majesty, you... look at the immortal on that boat?" As soon as Zhao Bing spoke, he saw Chen Dun pointing to a small boat passing by with them and trembling.
