In March, the grass grows and the birds fly.

There is less than a hundred miles of water from Hangzhou, which has a paradise and a summer and a river.

But I saw a white cloaked boat resting on the bench next to it.

The shipman stood at the stern with a helpless look on his face and said, "Master, I'm sorry, this ship... If this ship leaks, I'm afraid I can't walk."

Lin Yanchao was still good, but Lin Qianqian was stunned and asked, "What, the boat leaks? Can't walk?"

The shipkeeper said with a embarrassed look: "The first emperor atones and the first emperor atones, and the first emperor's wife atones for sins, which is really disrepair!"

After hearing the shipman's words, everyone present was very dissatisfied.

"It's only now that I'm saying I'm in disrepair." The maids whispered.

Chen Jichuan, who was standing beside him, was very unhappy and asked, "Bankman, are you a noble surname?"

The shipkeeper bowed repeatedly and said, "Don't let your surname be Chen."

Everyone spread their hands and said they could not do anything: "No wonder, no wonder. The ship's surname is Chen, can this ship not sink?"

"Yes, since the boatman has the surname Chen, why not? "

"This surname was not missed!"

The boatman muttered after hearing this: "We are not as particular as you are from the southerners. We still care about the surname of the ship."

Lin Yanchao then said, "Let's stop talking, boatman, this boat will take a few days to build it."

The shipkeeper heard this and said, "This is a big leak at the bottom of the ship, and it's almost out of the bottom. It's not clear. Even if you ask a skilled craftsman to come, you can say less than ten days or twenty days at least."

Chen Jichuan said: "Master, it seems that the only way to hire a ship again is to delay the return of the visiting relatives, and the court will blame it."

Lin Yanchao said: "That's the only way. Fortunately, we are about to arrive in Hangzhou, so it should be not difficult to rent a boat."

"What is luck?" Lin Qianqian stomped her feet, "It's all you are unwilling to spend more money. You hired a broken ship. Now you are hiring a ship again, and you have to pay for money."

Lin Yanchao sighed: "Aren't I honest and honest for the official?"

Speaking of Lin Yanchao's honest official, those who knew the inside story couldn't help but rolled their eyes.

So Lin Yanchao and others had to hire a new ship by the canal, but there were many ships heading south to Hangzhou without empty ships.

The canal ships heading north on the canal are still over Huaihe, and the merchant ships heading north on the spring of last year refused to return to the air. They went south to transport beans and some cargoes arrived in Suzhou and Hangzhou. There were almost no open space on the ship. And I heard that grain collectors in the south were making trouble, so there were fewer ships on the canal.

With so many people and luggage, Lin Yanchao did not have a single ship heading south to Hangzhou to carry it.

Of course, Lin Yanchao showed his official status and must be someone who flattered and pleased him, but Lin Yanchao didn't use it easily.

Just after Lin Yanchao waited at a loss by the canal for three days, a Wupeng boat returning south finally passed by the canal.

This black-sailed boat was a big five-ming tile ship. Lin Yanchao ignored the demeanor of the top scholar and called the boat across the water with Chen Jichuan and others.

"Boatman!"

"Boatman!"

The helm of the Mingwa ship said arrogantly: "We are a private boat, and we don't bring guests. If you shout, I won't agree!"

"Breaking the throat!"

"Breaking the throat!"

The shipman smiled and said, "It's useless to say it, you still shout."

While he was talking, a man in green clothes came out of the cabin and walked out of the cabin and said a few words to the shipkeeper. The shipkeeper nodded and agreed.

So the boatman said openly: "Our young master said that although we met by chance, we should help each other. Anyway, there are empty warehouses on the boat, so you can come on the boat."

After hearing what the shipkeeper said, Lin Yanchao and others were immediately overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

The scholar smiled, arched his hand to the shore, and walked back to the cabin.

So the boat docked, and Lin Yanchao and others carried their luggage onto the boat. The five-tile boat was very spacious, and the blue-shirted scholar evenly opened the cabin for everyone to live in.

After uploading and settling down, Chen Jichuan and Lin Yanchao said: "Master, this Mingwa ship looks like an ordinary black-sailed boat outside, but the interior decoration is very luxurious. Obviously, this young man is either rich or noble."

Lin Yanchao nodded. At this moment, the green-shirted scholar came to the cabin and asked, "How many people have settled?"

Lin Yanchao bowed and said, "If it weren't for the brother's settlement, we wouldn't know what to do. Thank you for your help."

The scholar smiled and said, "It's okay to raise your hands. In the case of the lower court, Yuan Hongdao, the name of "Cao Lang", I wonder if my brother Taitaifu?"

Lin Yanchao heard this and thought to himself that this person was Yuan Hongdao, one of the three Yuans of the Public Security Bureau.

Lin Yanchao said immediately: "It turns out that he is Brother Zhonglang, whose surname is Lin and whose courtesy name is Zonghai."

After hearing Lin Yanchao's cursive words, Yuan Hongdao laughed and said, "Coincidentally, the current top scholar, whose name is also Zong Hai, is your master of Lin Sanyuan all over the world."

Lin Yanchao laughed twice and said, "It's just a coincidence. I'm just a missed scholar. Before, the boat broke into a shallow, which disappointed Brother Zhonglang."

Yuan Hongdao smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that it's rare. The essay talent and the top scholar are alone in the world. The one I, Yuan Hongdao, admired most in my life, is Lin Sanyuan."

Lin Yanchao's face turned slightly red and said, "Brother Zhonglang, this is too much. In front of the literary seniors, Lin Sanyuan dared not be arrogant."

Yuan Hongdao couldn't help but sneer: "No wonder Brother Zong Hai couldn't even pass the exam for the student. It turns out that he had only seen this. The literary predecessors you praised were like Wang Shizhen, but they were just people who imitated the words and were not transformed by ancient characters. Nowadays, plagiarism has become popular in the literary world. When everyone heard the sound of the word, how could it not be said that it was their fault?"

"It's a pity that some uninformed scholars regard these people's articles as treasures all day long."

Lin Yanchao said: "Although Brother Zhonglang has been kind to me, I do not agree with you in your opinion."

Yuan Hongdao smiled and said, "It's okay, gentlemen are harmonious but different, but if you understand this principle, I think fame is not just about scholars."

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Zonghai has received teachings."

So Yuan Hongdao and Lin Yanchao started chatting about articles and classics.

When it comes to knowledge and talent, Yuan Hongdao could not even reach one-tenth of Lin Yanchao. Occasionally, Yuan Hongdao said some subjective and one-sided words, but Lin Yanchao did not point it out directly, but just pointed it out a few indirectly.

Yuan Hongdao immediately came over. He saw that although Lin Yanchao was not as famous as a scholar, he could not tell anything he said, but for some reason, every word could be pointed in his heart and even solved his doubts.

Suddenly, Yuan Hongdao admired Lin Yanchao very much.

Yuan Hongdao immediately turned his words to the literary world and said: "Today's literati admire the prosperity and the ancients. When reading the article, it seems like someone is staggering, and even falls into a pit. However, Lin Sanyuan's articles are different. Each word and sentence are used very short and simple. It cannot be added or subtracted. It is a natural and straightforward article. This is the best article to reach the pinnacle."

"It's a pity that many people don't understand the beauty of such articles. There is a essay meeting in Hangzhou, which is organized by a group of unconscious people. If Brother Zong Hai is free, please go with me and see how I slap these people in the face. (To be continued.)
