Wangxue Lake Pavilion (Ming) Zhang Dai

Snow Pavilion in the Lake (1)

Chongzhen lived in the West Lake in December of the fifth year. It snowed for many days, and the noise of pedestrians and birds in the lake disappeared.

It's a day, and it's even more fixed. I have a boat, a pile of clothes, and I watch the snow alone in the middle of the lake. Fog and songs, sky and clouds, mountains and water are all white. The shadow on the lake is just the trace of a long bank, a small pavilion in the middle of the lake, a mustard with Yu Zhou and two or three people on board.

In the pavilion in the middle of the lake, I saw two people laying blankets and a child cooking a wine stove. Seeing this, Yu was overjoyed and said, "How can there be such a person in the lake?" Pull me together and drink with me. Yu Qiang drank three large glasses of white wine. Ask them what their surnames are. They are from Nanjing and are guests in this place.

When he got off the boat, Zhou Zi murmured, "Don't say that Xianggong is crazy, there are more idiots like Xianggong."
