When Xin Ran was visiting e lake this day, he ran into Chen Ming, the descendant of Chen Liang, Mr. Longchuan. They met as if they were old friends at first sight, so they went to the lakeside restaurant, ordered a few small dishes, ordered a pot of wine, drank and talked at the same time.

In the drinking room, Chen Liang asked, "I don't know if brother Xin Shixiong is going to be a good father this year?"

Xin Ran replied, "I dare not. I'm wasting my life this year. I don't know if elder brother Chen Shixiong is going to be GUI Geng this year?"

Chen Liang said: "my younger brother wasted 16 years this year. You and I are friends. Today, you and my brother are just like old friends at first sight. It's better to be a brother of different surnames. Brother Xin, you are three years older than me, so I'll call you brother Xin. How about that?"

Xin Ran replied: "I have this idea. Chen Xiandi, if you do, you will be promoted."

So they became brothers of the opposite sex in front of the statue of Guan Gong in the restaurant.

After that, they happily came to the table and drank.

Chen Liang asked Xin Ran, "brother Xin, in the past, my little brother once heard my father talk about the meeting. But at that time, my little brother was still young and forgot many details. I wonder if you can remember the details?"

"Dear brother, you and my father's goose lake meeting, my younger brother did hear my father mention it many times," Xin Ran replied.

"That was in the 16th year of Chunxi. In winter, your father set out from Yongkang and came to Xinzhou. On the way, he lived in the open air. After more than 800 miles, he came to Xinzhou to meet his father. At that time, my father was sick and lying on the bed, and his father was very happy with your father's presence. They cooked wine and tea and tasted everything in the world, which was very pleasant.

my father once said:

when I was sick, my king came to sing a song, and I was surprised to see the snow flying over the building.

At that time, there was only west window moon.

To describe your father's happy time when he met;

my father said that your father still kept a good living habit at that time: he practiced martial arts every day, from dawn. At that time, your father's teeth began to fall off, but your father's age of 20 years old, coupled with family strife, made my life full of vitality. My father and your father talked with each other in piaoquan and Ehu for a few days. Then they went south to Zixi to wait for Zhu Xi, a university student. This place is not too far from Chongan where they live. Mr. Zhu Xi can meet each other as long as he walks 100 miles. However, Mr. Zhu Xi didn't make the appointment, and soon wrote to your father that the reason why he didn't meet was that he only wanted to live a hermit life of "picking chrysanthemums under the East fence, and seeing Nanshan leisurely";

in fact, my father and your father both understood that at that time, Wang Lin was in charge of the government of the Song Dynasty. However, these people have different political views from their father and your father, but they have a good relationship with Mr. Zhu. They are the so-called "Taoist school". Mr. Zhu was afraid that his meeting with his father and your father would lead to attacks and misunderstandings from the Taoist school, which would affect his future. Therefore, the excuse did not arrive;

however, before Mr. Zhu came, the father and your father talked more freely and incisively. They were familiar with the geography of the world, and had their own unique views on the governance of the country and the fight against foreign aggression, unlike Mr. Zhu, who only talked about that At that time, your father advocated to send troops to the northern expedition from the East and West lines at the same time, and his father advocated to concentrate the superior forces and only take one direction of Shandong as the first actual attack direction, waiting for the soldiers of the Song Dynasty to control Shandong and disrupt the defense line of the Jin people, and then waiting for the opportunity to move. After ten days of in-depth communication, on the eleventh day, your father returned to the East. This is the "meeting of the goose lake" once praised by people all over the world, "Xin Ran said.

After hearing this, Chen Ming said with emotion, "if you and my brother can gather talents from all over the world and come here for another meeting of the goose lake, what a blessing it would be. "

Xin Ran listened to Chen Ming and said to him," yes, I hope you and my brother will have that day. “
