残烛犹存。那烛焰在屋中摇曳不定。我呆呆地望着,僵硬的身子似乎感到一丝暖意。凝视那抖动的烛光,我仿佛又回到了许多年前……那是嘉靖年间,我还在淳安做县令。我坚信,以己之力,兢兢业业,只要怀着求实之心,定可使世风为之一新。果然,我把淳安营造成了一个“世外桃源”,为此不禁“沾沾自喜”。然而官场的黑暗使我不得不冷静面对。“都是严氏父子祸国殃民!”我不止一次在夜里长叹。为什么那些阁老大臣们不能以实言上呈皇上?铲除奸佞应当是殒身不恤的啊!……回想至此,我顿感周身热血再一次沸腾,眼前的烛光又似乎明亮了许多。这时,窗外一阵风吹了进来,烛焰抖了两下。我的心一沉,想要把风挡住,但一点力气都使不出来。还好,蜡烛到底没灭。我的思绪又飘动起 The remaining candlestick still exists.
