Chapter 10 The Tenth Chapter of Weeping in the Golden Palace Zhaohui v. Ji Yun's order to repair the treasury book from the heart

Zhang Ruocheng and Zhang Ruoxing resigned tremblingly, Qianlong then ordered Fu Heng and Ji Yun to stand up and give them their seats.Then he said to Zhang Taiyi: "Floods occurred in several places in northern Jiangsu and Huaibei, and there was a demon "Yizhihua" spreading evil ways. I heard that it has spread to southern Shandong. Prince He recommended you to pray for disasters. I have always respected the sky and feared it. I am ordered to respect Confucius and Mencius, to govern the country with Confucianism and Taoism, and to put filial piety first. Because the Empress Dowager also has a decree to follow her benevolent orders, she ordered you to come here. There are also droughts in Henan, Shandong, and Shanxi. I also want to hear about your Taoism How to explain, what spells can eliminate disasters?"

"Go back to Lord Long Live." Zhang Taiyi knelt straight, bowed to the ground, and played: "The prince and I have visited Baiyun Temple three times, and have informed the poor of the disasters in various places, and ordered the poor to deduce the good and bad times. But the poor Huang Guan is not good, How dare you presume the number of days and talk about good and bad? According to the inner formula of the Great Dao Jindan, if the heavenly stems and yin and yang are in harmony, it will be auspicious, and if they are not in harmony, it will be bad. Stars, such as Jia suffers Xinke, that is, Xin is the palace. Yang meets Yang, and Yin suffers Yin, all of which are incompatible. This year is the Golden Year, Taibai is full of energy, and the southeast wood belongs to the land of green dragons, gold and water are born together, so the southeast There are many floods and disasters in the land. In addition, there are six stars in the sky, and the third palace falls in the afternoon of Jiawu, so the white tiger is rampant, and the military affairs are not smooth."

What he said is just like the so-called mysterious and mysterious door, except for Ji Yun, everyone heard it as if they were in a fog.Qianlong was ignorant, but he didn't want to be "ignorant", so he looked at Ji Yun.Because Ji Yun understood it, he said beside him: "You explained the theory of Chisongzi, in which the six stars in the sky are in the third palace, which is specious. Because you already know that Jinchuan's military affairs are not good, and you reasoned along the facts. .In fact, "Chisongzi" explains it clearly. The addition of Tianpan Bing and Jiazi is a sign of good luck for flying birds. Chisongzi said, "Flying to the ground, clouds and dragons gather, monarchs and ministers are good, and actions are restrained." So clear You forgot! Because of the occasional floods, droughts and famines in the world, the lord is not only adapting to changes in the righteous way of cultivation, but also borrowing the power of Buddhism and Taoism with a heart of benevolence. You must not make false statements about state affairs, otherwise disasters will follow!" He was flooded with knowledge. He was erudite, articulate and concise, and even quoted the original text of "Chisong Nuts" correctly. Everyone was surprised when they heard it, and even Zhang Taiyi was unconvinced. Not good enough, I beg Long Live for forgiveness!"

"You don't want to interfere in politics, I don't care about it." Qianlong smiled, and followed Ji Yun's words and said: "Baiyun Temple is a Taoist Quanzhen school, which focuses on cultivating the true nature, emptiness, spirit, nourishing qi and refining truth. In fact, it has similarities with Confucianism. That's why I use you to pray, Bu Zhi—you take Master Zhang to the Palace of Compassion to Ning to meet the Empress Dowager Lafayette, and tell him to follow Yi's order." "Zha!" Bu Zhi agreed with a cocky voice, and took Zhang Taiyi to go.Qianlong looked at the steaming heat outside the hall, looked at Zhaohui, and was about to open his mouth to ask questions, when Ji Yun suddenly left his seat, knelt down and kowtowed: "Long live, my minister... how much do you want to admonish the Lord?" In a word..."

"Get up and sit still." Qianlong frowned, got up and left the kang, pacing leisurely in his blue satin and soap boots, and said slowly: "I know what you want to say. You shouldn't have summoned this Taoist priest, should you? "Ji Yun hurriedly bowed and said: "Yes! I want to remonstrate this matter." Qianlong said: "There is no need to remonstrate. No matter how faint I am, I will not go to learn from Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty. What is said here It is filial piety and respect. Lafayette believed in this, so he had to be filial; the queen also believed in it, and he had to be respectful. Huang Guanzi is like a cat or a dog, and his mother likes it. Don't you want to laugh at your beauty? The queen has this heartbreak, she is the mother of the world, and I can't It made her feel wronged by this trivial matter."

Ji Yun was in awe when he heard this, and said: "Your Majesty's words are like refreshing wind to wash your heart! Since the Song Dynasty, Neo-Confucianists have thought that they have the righteousness of the world, and those who don't agree with them are called heresies. People want to be full of 'righteousness and fate'. Ask him what is true loyalty, filial piety, sincerity, and respect, and he will be at a loss. He doesn't know that human feelings are the principles of heaven, which exist in the Dao of Confucius and Mencius. They are just talking about the fundamental principles of loyalty and forgiveness."

"That's clear. The root cause of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism is that they don't talk about forgiveness and sincerity, and they have created many hypocrites to fool the country and harm the government!" With a cold smile on his face, Qianlong said faintly: "The late emperor Li Fu in his hand, when someone gave him a gift, he drove him away with a cold face. When he left, he took his family to get angry for no reason. Can this heart be questioned? There is also a negligent relative in my hand—" He stopped abruptly, staring intently at Zhao Hui who was kneeling beside the grille. "——there is a vicious dog at home who keeps the door away and prevents people from giving gifts. He believes that his heart is not as good as that dog! He is full of big talk and fights to go to Jinchuan. You bastards like Zhao Hui!" He snorted ferociously, and even the eunuchs who were waiting in the outer hall were sneezing in their calves, trying to turn their muscles.

Fu Heng also shuddered. Seeing Qianlong grinning all over his face, he hurriedly said, "Naqin Hailancha Zhaohui deserves the crime, master...don't be angry..." "Angry?" Qianlong sneered , turned back to sit on the xumizuo seat in front of the kang, and had already returned to normal. He picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea leaves with the lid of the cup, and said, "I'm angry with you, he deserves it? Hai Lancha is The grandson of Lord Zhongyong of Doral, what a hero his grandfather was, he couldn't get out of the battle with ten arrows in the body of the saint Zu Xizheng; Zhaohui's father, Fobiao, was surrounded by heavy siege in the battle in Khobdo, and he killed Galdan seventeen times in a row General, isn’t he an indomitable man who saved the ancestors to break through the encirclement?! Therefore, I am not angry with them, but feel sorry for them, feel ashamed for them, and just underestimate them!”

This is really ruthless and tyrannical scolding and sarcasm. Even Ji Yun and Fu Heng felt as if they were whipping their hearts hard with a whip. It was transparent, stuck tightly to the body, and the whole hall was dead silent, as quiet as an empty ancient tomb!Zhaohui was wearing a shackle, her upper body was upright, agitated, excited, wronged, sad, resentful, full of five senses in her heart, her sadness could not be overcome, her eyes had already burst into tears, after listening to Qianlong's words, she groaned from the trombone, flailed her elbows Knocking on the ground of the gold bricks, he wailed loudly: "Master, master, listen to this slave's heartfelt feelings... Please be executed after finishing speaking..." His heart was so painful that he almost wanted to live. Howling wolves.Wang Yizheng came in from the outer hall with a stack of memorials, and his heart shuddered suddenly. The Chinese books in his arms were scattered all over the floor. Wang Xin, the eunuchs, and several maids serving tea were all trembling with horror, their faces were burnt yellow. Just as he was about to drink the tea, his hand trembled, and the cup almost fell out of his hand.Fu Heng was also jumping in his heart, Bi Bi was sitting stiffly, trying his best to suppress his emotions, thinking about how to deal with the situation of the emperor's disrespect.

In an instant, Qianlong was also so shocked that his face turned pale.He was born in the palace since he was a child, and he was brought up by a babysitter in Qiluo Cong. He also went out to Beijing several times to inspect the officials and the people, and saw some sadness and distress.I have never heard such a cry that hurts the liver, hurts the lungs, and panics.Li Li trembled for a long time, before Qianlong regained his composure, he had recognized the serious grievance behind the word "fleeing general", but his mouth was still cold, and said: "I called you here, of course I want to listen to you. You are a general, and you were born in the army. I will not punish you for the crime of disrespect, what are you looking like!"

Zhao Hui burst into tears, gritted his teeth, choked and sobbed, and it took him a long time to hold back his misery. He shook his head again and again with the shackle on the ground, and said, "The servant has held back his words and wants to confide in his master. Before he knew it, he committed another crime of disrespect... ...Naqin...who knew he was Qin Hui...he is actually a living Zhang Shigui!" Thinking of the death of Baonaqin in the night battle of Jinchuan, Naqin's ungrateful revenge and murder, and thinking of all kinds of escapes with Hailancha thousands of miles away begging for his life Because of the situation, Zhaohui was crying, choked her neck and wanted to let out a sound, but she held it tightly with the shackle, and her face was flushed. "Put him to death!" Seeing him mourning so much, Qianlong's heart sank.He ordered Wang Li to unshackle him, and asked: "Xiaolan, who is Zhang Shigui?"Fu Heng answered carefully from the side: "Zhang Shigui is a character in "The White Robe General". "Ji Yun laughed and said: "I can't finish reading the serious scriptures my master handed me, so why pay attention to these..." These few sentences of loose dialogue slightly buffered the tragic and desolate atmosphere just now.Zhaohui loosened his sentence, and Shuzhan bowed down and bowed to Qianlong to thank Qianlong.He is a very organized person. He started with the disputes in the military affairs meeting before the war, and then talked about the battle situation. Zhang Guangsi, who could not predict the enemy, also refused to advise and act headstrong. The defeat of Xiazhai, the trapping of Songgang, the fall of the Shujing Temple, and the humiliation are all handled by Sha Luoben.And how did you hear that Neqin and Zhang Guangsi were planning to kill people to silence the Japanese and deceive the emperor's secret room plan.The two discussed in a hurry to escape from the dangerous place, and went to Beijing separately to file a complaint.All kinds of circumstances, the cause and effect of the cause and effect change suddenly and steeply - if they fit together like a festival, the whole audience was dumbfounded.Qianlong felt relaxed and tense at times, sad and angry at other times, the fire in his heart rushed to his head and pulse, and his hands were covered with cold sweat.Ji Yun frowned tightly, just sighed in shock and shook his head slightly.However, Fu Heng was comparing his words with the memorial letters of Jin Ji, Jin Hui, Le Min, and Li Shiyao. He also thought about Jinchuan's weather and geography, Sha Luoben's military strategy and countermeasures, and his thoughts were even more profound...I couldn't think about it. Zhaohui's report came to an end. He gripped the cracks of the gold bricks tightly with his hands and ten fingers, and kowtowed violently, "...Master, master! We were not defeated by Sha Luoben, we were actually defeated by In the hands of the two generals! It is true that Shaluo is capable of fighting, but we are too incompetent and useless... trash... a shame for the master..." "Where's Hai Lancha? Where is he now?" Qianlong asked after a long time. Zhaohui wiped away his tears and felt much relieved, and said, "Jin Hui is a pro-private party, we are afraid that he will hunt down and kill him. After breaking up in Wuchang, he went north to Beijing by Hanshui River, because he heard that the master was on a tour to the south, and the slave left. The Yangtze River went east to Nanjing. When I arrived in Nanjing, I heard that the master Yujia had not yet arrived, so I surrendered to the Jingong Yamen. I came to Beijing. Naturally, the slave should be faster. The Han River is a boat against the current, and he is now unknown in Luoyang, Nanyang." Qianlong was silent for a long time, and asked: "I heard that you have brought military pay privately? Is there any?" , I brought five hundred taels of gold—I paid it to the governor’s office when I surrendered—he brought one hundred thousand taels of silver bills. Hai Lancha is ten times smarter than me, and nothing will happen.” Qianlong listened and looked Fu Heng. It was Le Min who wrote to Fu Heng in a letter to carry the military pay, and he just received it the day before yesterday.However, after searching through the Jinhui Jinhui Memorial, there is no mention of this matter.Fu Heng's heart was shocked: How dare the golden hoof covet this money!But at this time, there is no proof. Fu Heng thought, and said, "The market price of five hundred taels of gold to twenty-four is 12,000 taels. It's not a small amount. It's easy to check." "Check!" Qianlong gritted his teeth and said. "I take leniency in politics, which means resting with the people. Of course, there is also the meaning of a harmonious and peaceful officialdom. After Emperor Shizong's vigorous and vigorous rectification, Ya didn't want the officialdom to be in danger. Who knows that the government is corrupt. It's so fast! It seems that if you don't kill a few big officials in the borderlands, it's hard to prevent it from happening!" He took out his watch and looked at it, and said to Zhaohui: "What you said today is just one-sided words. Let me listen first, and wait for Neqin to explain it. The final decision can only be made after Ming Ming’s approval——Bu Xin, take him to the beekeeping lane, and let Liu Tongxun arrange for him.” Zhaohui was deterred by saluting, and followed Bu Xin back out.Fu Heng knew that there were countless officials outside sweating profusely, waiting anxiously for him.Just as he was about to speak, Qianlong asked, "Has Yin Jishan set off for Nanjing?" Fu Heng hurriedly bowed and said, "I received a letter from him the day before, saying that he would leave immediately, by the waterway from Hankou to Nanjing. His mother is not feeling well in Nanjing now. He is more anxious than anyone else in his heart! But Guangdong's current military, civil, administrative and financial affairs are not what they used to be, foreigners preaching, and Sino-foreign trade are not in the mainland. Yin Jishan wrote several times, saying that more than half of the energy is spent on this. Gan Xian smiled and said: "He also said this several times in the secret book. Forbidden the sea, it will cut off a big fortune, and open the sea, these troubles will be inevitable-you continue." "Yin Jishan was escaped by "Yizhihua" several times when he was in office in Nanjing. It has always been a pity. I hate that I am not as good as the late Li Weishan in arresting robbers." Fu Heng said, "So I want to ask Huang Tianba to be transferred to his governor's office for three years. If he couldn't catch a "Yizhihua" within one year, he took the blame and resigned. Now there are no good interpreters in Guangzhou Huayi, and he can't speak Chinese and foreign languages. He is worried that if another foreign "Yizhihua" comes out, he will increase his guilt. gone." "Are there any officials who speak Spanish?" Qianlong turned to Ji Yun and asked.Ji Yun was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and said: "Yes, some of the pens in the Siyi Pavilion to receive foreigners can speak the Yi language. But they have to accompany the imperial court to serve them—yes, Jia Zhijun from the Imperial Academy Since childhood, he has been doing foreign goods business with his aunt in Guangzhou, and he can speak English, French, and Hongmao Mandarin, and even recited English poems for me in a whisper—it would be appropriate to send him there." "Jia Zhijun?" Qianlong said: "I've heard the name before." Ji Yun said with a smile: "The emperor has a good memory! Three years ago, several Hanlin courts handed in blank examination papers, and the officials commented on his papers, 'The bright moon is in the sky, and it is spotless. How can you teach Naier!' The emperor also called them in to teach But," Qianlong said: "I remember. Is it the one who swallowed his words?" Ji Yun said: "Yes. He also laughs slowly, like... like pouring a chamber pot." Qianlong laughed loudly, leaned up and moved his legs to get off the kang, pointed to Ji Yun and said, "Where are you - when will you get rid of this problem? You don't forget to tell jokes when you play the right occasion!" Fu Heng laughed. : "Ji Yun has changed a lot. He is looking at the emperor depressed, to make you happy." It was convenient for Qianlong to get up and go out. When he came back, he still smiled, washed his hands, and said, "I know—don't write down what you said just now. This is Jia Zhijun—I'll introduce you later and teach him to pour the chamber pot for foreigners." Then he said to Fu Heng, "Go ahead." "The originally proposed exchange between Jin Jishan and Yin Jishan." Fu Heng smiled and said, "But Jin Jishan's talent is actually inferior to Yin Jishan's. Zhaohui's payment of gold should also be explained clearly. The slave didn't know how to deal with it for a while. I want to ask for an order..." Then, Fu Heng talked about disaster relief, Liu Yong was going to Dezhou, and the aftermath of Jinchuan's defeat. The guilty officials should be handed over to the Ministry for discussion. He also mentioned that the military rations in the Yulin grain depot were suspiciously rotten, and briefly described the erratic "one branch of flower" in the south of the Yangtze River, spreading medicine everywhere to spread the word, workers from copper mines and loom workshops in the south of the Yangtze River gathered, and strikes happened from time to time... Ji Yun heard it at first Seriously, the more I listened to it, the more complicated it became, and I had to prepare for Qianlong's errand to ask me, so my thoughts turned to compiling the "Siku Quanshu".For a while, I thought it was difficult to collect books. Officials from all over the country were not serious enough to do business, and they had no right to be hard-pressed. I also thought that there was not enough editors. Some ancient books were written in Xixia and Bronze scripts, so I had to have specialists; Not a single word... However, Qianlong listened meticulously, and sometimes asked a few casual questions, and wrote them down on paper. Because the weather was hot again, Fu Heng and Ji Yun sweated on their cheeks, and ordered the eunuch to play fans... It took more than half an hour to listen. , Fu Heng just finished speaking.Seeing that Qianlong was always sitting cross-legged without feeling tired, Ji Yun couldn't help secretly admiring: "This master is really good at sitting!" Just as he was thinking wildly, Qianlong said: "It seems that you can't finish talking for a while. Ah Gui from the Military Aircraft Department will arrive tomorrow Poor, you have to think about some things before playing. Huang Tianba is capable, and he also praised Haikou, so he was transferred to Yin Jishan in Nanjing. He was awarded the title of deputy general, and he was actually awarded the title of general. Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, has the title of Rewarded Servant, and is in charge of the affairs of various folk gangs in the world... Ji Yun, why are you just sitting there in a daze?" "Huh? Oh... Your Majesty!" Ji Yun hurriedly returned to his senses and smiled, "I'm thinking about my errand!" Because of all the difficulties in the general appointment.He also said: "This kind of job is no worse than a school. It is everyone's fawning and everyone cares. Collecting books has no rights at all. It offends people for no reason. It is hard to see political achievements when it is done. Foreign officials who are willing to show strength Not much. The last time I had wine, people said that my minister was like Mi Heng of the Three Kingdoms said, 'You are like a clay tire in a temple. Although you are respected, you can't hate it'..." Qianlong smiled slightly, and said: "I already know your It’s troublesome. Repeatedly telling me, ordering the Ministry of Accounts to transfer money, it’s really not going to work, so—you change to the vice president of Siku Quanshu!” Even Fu Heng's heart was shocked when he said this: "Ji Yun's president has already issued an edict to the world, for no reason, why did he step down?" The six ministers, the three secretaries, and the ministers of all universities are also vice presidents. You are still in charge of the errands. If you need money, you are the errands of the Ministry of Accounts. , Those who do well and those who do not do well will be evaluated by the Ministry of Officials and recorded according to the first achievement. In addition, those who presided over the Southern and Northern Wei scientific examinations and the Shuntianfu major examinations, and those who have not entered the Siku Quanshu on-duty compilation , all will not be sent. There are a few rules, which are promulgated by the fair and righteous way, so that they will not squeeze their heads to get into you—only one, you can’t be greedy for ink, and if such a thing happens, the punishment will be increased!” "Thank you for the great kindness of the emperor!" Ji Yun had already smiled with joy, stood up and bowed his body, and said with a smile: "So, this job will be easy to handle. Even Fu Heng is under the restraint of the minister—the minister has The decree can eat gizzard meat at will. The emperor and queen rewarded not only the mansion and salary, but also a manor. , It’s the nature of the minister——” Seeing Qianlong’s surprise, he explained with a smile, “Since I was three years old, no matter whether it’s cold or hot, I’ve never missed a single day in writing, diary, and writing articles. No more!" Qianlong and Fu Heng laughed when he said that. Qianlong heard the rustling of the big clock in the outer hall, and then the melodious and loud impact sound came in, and he knew it was noon.Seeing that both Fu Heng and Ji Yun wanted to say goodbye, they said with a smile: "I'm not busy, what are you busy with? I have to sort out some important matters today, so you stay and have dinner with me—— bastard... ... Shame, ask the small kitchen to prepare. There are only three people, it would be better if there were fewer people." Seeing Wang Shu going out, Qianlong joked about Wang Shu's name change again, which made the two of them suppress their laughter, and Qianlong said: "I have a heart-to-heart relationship with my servants and slaves, but I am very cautious in the harem. Concubines and concubines, if they interfere in politics, they will be severely punished; eunuchs who play power for personal gain, have no other punishment except killing. This is the most important thing. Han died in Si, the Tang Dynasty died here, the Ming Dynasty died here, and the Yin Jian is solid. As for the Minister of Heart and Soul, as long as they are not such a low-level person like Qin Hui, they all know how to be grateful." Fu Heng saw that Qianlong's words were bright and clear, so he said, "Zhang Tingyu has made people for several generations, but now he is obsessed with memorization. The emperor is benevolent and virtuous, and he measures Wang Yang. This slave persuades the emperor to remember—" Is it the old man?" Qianlong took the cool towel held by Wang Li and wiped his sweat, and said, "He has been in power for too many years, and he has forgotten his status. What he thinks about is how the ancestors and emperors treated him. Well, I see me as being supported by him, and I always feel that I can’t stand him, so I fight against me—this heart is guilty. Wang Youdun—put the dining table in the main hall—Wang Youdun is thinking again , He entered the military plane, but he was dedicated to his errands. He wanted to be Zhang Tingyu's second. Then he had the idea of ​​​​sorrowful, and wanted to make Zhang Tingyu a "perfect person". Therefore, I told Zhang Tingyu what I said in private, and Zhang Tingyu "personally" 'The matter of coming in to apologize - this one, Wang Youdun's heart is even more unquestionable, he will quit the military aircraft and become the Minister of Sanzhi." "As for Zhang Tingyu..." Qianlong murmured, "I pity and hate him at the same time. I hope that he will know his regrets and keep his etiquette and set an example for future generations of ministers. But if he is blindly allowed to act like this, future generations will be weak." Yes, if you don't grasp it well, there will be a stubborn minister, a domineering minister, and maybe a treacherous hero like Cao Cao. Zhang Tingyu's honor and disgrace is a trivial matter, and the community is still the most important thing. After thinking about it again and again, the more stubborn he is, I will The more you have to wipe it, the ruler and ministers will generally mess up the rules, and the future will be unimaginable!" Only now did Fu Heng and Ji Yun understand the reason for Wang Youdun's crime. Thinking about Qianlong's words, they were really far-sighted and thoughtful, and when they thought of themselves, they couldn't help but feel terrified.However, Qianlong ignored the thoughts of the two of them. When he saw the meal being served, he said with a smile: "Scholar Ji, General Fu, I want to reward you for accompanying me to the meal. After the meal, there are still matters to be discussed, so don't be restrained." Ji Yun saw Qianlong coming down Kang carefully followed out of the Nuan Pavilion, and said with a smile: "I know that the emperor always needs to rest for a while at noon. We'd better retreat, and it won't be too late to wait for the emperor to get up and come in to discuss the matter." "Today is an exception." Qianlong sat in the middle, and ordered two people to sit with him on the side, "You should be careful with what you say to the outside world—I want to go outside Beijing." Fu Henggang held it up, stopped in surprise, and said: "Your Majesty, The slave knows that you are most afraid of heat. You are not suitable for traveling in this kind of May and June. I remember that year when I accompanied you to Henan with hail and rain, and the emperor suffered a serious illness. I still feel guilty and afraid when I think about it. ..." Qianlong smiled wryly, picked up a piece of melon and mixed it with the old rice, and ate it. Depressed, he said, "I'm going. All officials and river workers have to see it. Hearing and seeing are different. There is no way to do it!" " Bu Xin took Zhaohui to the beekeeping prison temple to pass the decree, originally thinking that he would confess the errand as soon as he finished speaking.But the history of prison codes in charge of the prison temple said: "Eunuch, you came with a will, and I have to obey it. But this place is already overcrowded. There are four ovaries in Tiandi, Yuanhuang, and there are still a few vacancies in Huangzi. The house, a group of prisoners from Shanxi Xie yesterday, was fully occupied. What do you think should be done?" "I just pass on the decree. I should be the one who asked you this, so what should I do instead?" "This is some tea money, please keep it, father-in-law." Seeing that Bu Xin had a sullen face, the old prison history officer hurriedly stuffed two taels of silver, and said with a smile: "There is a constitutional order on this matter. Xie Lai prisoners will be detained first in Shuntian Mansion South Prison, where a special number has been set up, and they will be detained there first. Turn around and ask Mr. Liu for instructions." Bu Xin refused to accept the money, and said, "Let Liu Tongxun deal with what the decree said. You go Ask him, I'll just sit here and wait." Dian Shi smiled and said, "The prison officer just came, Liu Zhongtang went to Baoding to investigate the case, and he won't be back until the day after tomorrow. Liu Zhongtang's young master is now in Tongzhou, ready to go Go to Texas. I am waiting for his old man too! Otherwise, I will bother you to ask for an order again, and we will do it." Zhao Hui knew that he was trying to blackmail her, but he cared about his identity and was indeed penniless.The side said impatiently: "This is a fucking big deal, where is it different? Take me to Shuntian Mansion!" Bu Xin said: "The man has been handed over to you. I have finished the job, you can figure it out Let's go!" After saying that, he raised his head and left.Here, the history of the Prison Code sent out the divination letter, smiling to himself, and asked Zhao Huinian's position and the reason for his crime, and said, "I have wronged you, my lord. The villain has no intention of offending you. All the officials in this place are high-ranking officials. Let out a decree, lift your feet higher than my head... You go first, I will ask for instructions to pick you up when Liu Zhongtang comes back..." Two yamen servants were sent with the prison temple to "send a fugitive to a temporary detention , name Zhaohui" approval note, escorted Zhaohui to the Shuntian Mansion Prison in the north of Shengjiang Hutong.The history of prison codes in Shuntian Mansion saw the approval, but they were not as polite as the people in the Prison Temple. They registered their age, hometown, name and reason of the case as usual, and said to the jailer with a serious face: "Hu Fugui, prison Go to the single room in the middle of your No. 6. He is a fugitive who is wanted by the imperial court, please wait carefully—change him into prison clothes!" After saying that, he pulled the broken plantain fan and ate tea. It was dark in the cell.Zhaohui was pushed and pushed into a wooden cell by Hu Fugui and two jailers, and the door closed with a "huh", and the lock clanged, before she came to her senses as if she had woken up from a dream.With the light from the top window, I began to look at the cell. This is a large tile house with seven rooms, the foundation is all made of large bluestone strips, the upper wall is made of brick columns sandwiched with adobe, and there are clusters of soil-alkali flowers stained against the bottom of the wall.There are doors on the two gables and a passage in the middle.The north and south sides of the aisle are divided into rooms of different sizes by wooden fences, and the rooms are also separated by thigh-thick oak wood.Above the guard gates on the two gable walls, there is a white plaque with the word "compassion" written on one end and the word "sorrow" written on the other end. When Zhaohui entered the door, the first thing he felt was smelly.With the light from the dark top window, it took him a long while to see a toilet at the door next to the grille, and when he looked again, there were toilets of different sizes at the door of each shop, emitting a strong smell of filth and straw. The musty smell of the grass shop, the fishy smell of the two prisoners who were sentenced in the west single number, and the sweaty and foot odor of the prisoners of each number, all permeated and mixed together in the hot cell, and it was hard to tell what it was. What a stink. He looked at the west cell first. The two prisoners were lying motionless on the straw bunk. They seemed to be still in a coma. The blood on their buttocks and backs stuck their clothes to their bodies. Both of their legs were swollen with sticks on their legs. To be honest, there was a person who lost a big toe somehow, and one foot was swollen like a carrot. Countless flies buzzed around them, and the pus and blood on the toe crawled up and down. It was full of maggots as small as white rice, crowded into balls and eggs.Zhaohui couldn't help feeling sick, covered her nose with her hands, and turned to Donghao again. The East House is a big one, and there are more than a dozen people crowded together, lying down or sitting shut, and the ground is covered with straw and weeds, making it a mess.In the middle of the booth, there is a shop against the wall, a big bearded man with big shackles on his feet, using a chopstick to string a string of pasta sticks, he is chewing like no one else, everyone else is watching, the man eats He stretched his arms, yawned comfortably, and said, "Are you all fucking dead? Sit up straight for me!" Shen San, you came in as an actor, and you're a singer. Come on for a while, to refresh Master Wei!" Zhao Hui thought about it carefully, and realized that there were also rank and file among the prisoners. This "Master Wei" seemed to be the leader of the East House.Thinking about it, that man named Shen San twisted his feet and pinched his waist, and sang gracefully: Daddy—I seem to have been severely punished, longing, longing for you to be the Emperor of the East.I can see some spring sunshine, and the east wind is smooth.That’s right—the frost on the ground makes the snow worse... "Good!" All the prisoners cheered in unison.Shen San went on to sing: ...Without any emotion, she held on to my clothes tightly, and the world would be ashamed to see a person dying!If you refuse to be sympathetic, why don't I lament and be sad... At this point, all the prisoners laughed wildly: "With such a beard, is it still 'Grandmother'?" "You are dressed in prison clothes, singing Dou E's injustice, it's almost the same!" "Face! Does Dou E look like him?" "The voice is not bad, you have to close your eyes to listen to it - I heard from my father that anyone who knows how to listen to opera has their eyes closed!" "I just closed my eyes and listened, and the job almost stiffened!" "Bah, you have nothing but a fucking dick!" "Are you pretending to be serious with me? It's not that you committed adultery with your widowed sister-in-law and were arrested, forcing your sister-in-law to commit suicide. You can come in—you are also from the top!" Zhaohui patted an old man with his back leaning against the fence. The old man was taking a nap with his head buried in his head. He was startled, and after looking around he found it was Zhaohui. Staring at Zhaohui, she asked, "Did you...I...did I provoke you?" "What did the two offenders on the west side of me do to beat them up like that?" "I just came in yesterday," the old man rubbed his red and swollen nose, and muttered in a small voice, "It's the White Lotus Sect bandit from Jiangxi. Yes, just resist death..." Zhaohui couldn't help smiling: Will she be able to fly through the clouds and still be caught?Ask the old man, "What did you do?" The old man sighed, and just said: "The year is not good, the rent is not paid, and the young master took people to steal the house and rob people..." Before he could finish speaking, he Hearing a sharp shout: "He Gengjin!" The old man named He Gengjin trembled, and when he looked back, it was not the jailer calling, but Master Wei who staggered over. Seeing him smiling sullenly, He Gengjin leaned against the fence, put his hands on the ground, and raised his face He stammered and asked, "I... what happened to me?" "It seems that you haven't understood yesterday's 'door-opening rules'." Wei Ye threw the leftover pastry to Shen San, glanced at Zhaohui with hostile eyes, and said to He Gengjin: "This is the class room. Not your house! Talk to whoever you want?" Zhaohui stared at Master Wei with gloomy eyes, his already pale face looked even darker under the weak light, Master Wei smiled and said: "Your mother's thief eyes, you can tell it's not a good thing just by looking at it. Lao Tzu, do you want to eat pastry?" Zhaohui said, "I'm looking at you as a villain and bully - you are all the same poor people, why do you bully others?" "You speak so well, you seem to be someone who has read books." Master Wei smiled and said, "Who in this big house doesn't know me, Wei Tianpeng? What Wei Tianpeng hates the most is scholars! I come in and out three times, and this is where I come from." Hell Qianlong!——Let’s let the wind out in the afternoon, and I will definitely teach you the 'opening rules'!" Zhaohui was already furious in his heart, his teeth were gritting, and he smiled ferociously, and said, "I don't know how many times you have killed me! Just wait and see!" Wei Tianpeng, nicknamed "Hell Qianlong", sneered and ignored Zhaohui. Hui, turned back to his "throne seat" and sat cross-legged on the floor, slapped his thigh solemnly, and all the prisoners immediately knelt on the ground obediently.Shen San lost the pastry, mumbled indistinctly, and shouted: "Master Wei has been promoted!" "One of the criminals, He Gengjin, knelt down to hear the trial!" "Qianlong" gave an order, and immediately two prisoners came over and dragged He Gengjin over. "Qianlong" said: "Respond according to the rules-who is kneeling, name and age, and where is the family?" He Gengjin was terrified, and he kowtowed his head and said, "Master Wei, you have already asked about the 'interrogation' yesterday..." "Fart! Ask me what you answer, come quickly!" "Yes... the youngest is He Gengjin, fifty-three years old, from Tongzhou, Zhili..." "What crime did you commit, move!" Several "yamen servants" immediately responded and shouted happily, "Show! Move! Move!" "Yes..." He Gengjin swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and swallowed: "I owe my boss, Yao Guisheng, four dou for rent. This is a matter of three years ago. Plus three interest, the principal and interest are calculated as four stones, one dou and two liters of rice, plus This year's rent is more than ten shi. This year's severe drought, this year's rent can not be paid, so I pleaded with Yao Dong's family. Yao Guisheng took my house and sold it, and asked the young master to go to my house to rob my three daughters to pay off the debt. Two I made a mistake, and I accidentally broke a leg of the Young Master's family. According to the crime of 'deceiving the master with a slave', the crime of beheading the prisoner is the crime. Nothing to say, I plead guilty, anyway, he can't take my daughter!" "Aha, that's how it is!" "Qianlong" laughed out loud while stroking his beard. "What kind of robbery is he, let me tell you the truth!" He Gengjin stared at "Qianlong" with staring eyes, as if he was calming his anger, and replied after a long while: "If you rob it, you rob it. If it doesn't look good, I moved the pole!" Shen San asked next to him: "What's the matter?" Pulling method? Did you take off your clothes?" The prisoners next to him chattered: "Yes, do you show your boobs?" "Did you tear off your pants too? Hahaha..." "Hey hey... I fell to the ground..." "You missed the pole, you should discount his dick, Gegege..." Zhao Hui was already numb with anger, holding the fence tightly with both hands, wishing he could just go over and beat up these rascals.Hearing a beep at the gate, a jailer came in and called, "Come here!—Aren't you Hu Fugui? I'm Zhaohui! Do you care about what's going on here?" As soon as he finished shouting, he saw Hu Fugui following behind him. The girl dragging the basket looked at herself timidly, then stopped talking.The prisoner in the next number has already "suspended trial", and He Gengjin rushed to the side of the fence and shouted "Yun girl"!Knowing that it was his daughter who came to bring a change of clothes and food, he couldn't help but burst into clamor: "Ah! This girl is so damn juicy!" "Here comes the food!" "Blessings share hardships!" "Well, Peugeot! Much better than the horse widow I got!" Amidst the foul language, Hu Fugui passed Zhaohui's side, squinted a pair of triangular eyes, looked at Zhaohui arrogantly, and asked: "What are you talking about? This is the forbidden place under the emperor's law. You are a vajra. At this point, you have to bend your eyebrows!" "Let me ask you, do you care about the affairs here?" Zhaohui pointed to the next door and said, "This Wei Tianpeng is a rebel, he calls himself 'Qianlong in prison', and oppresses goodness in the same name—listen to what they say, Look at what they are doing? How dare you say it is a forbidden place under the emperor's footsteps!" When Hu Fugui turned to look, He Gengjin and his daughter were squatting across the fence, both hugging each other and crying.云丫头已哭得半瘫在地下，瑟缩着抽搐着语不成声：“爹……都怨咱们穷……咱们命不好……今年灾多，听说皇恩大赦免勾一年……您要脱了这场大难，俺娘说咱一家都去闯关东……”何庚金只是流泪，用手隔栅过来抚着女儿的头发，哽咽着说：“爹死得起……跟你妈去你姥姥家，好好过，啊？听话……”兆惠听得心里凄惶，已是落下泪来。胡富贵已是司空见惯毫不动心，对兆惠道：“不干你的事，少操狂心！你说韦天鹏不好，他替我约束着犯人，省了我多少心呢！”又转脸对哭得难分难舍的父女俩道： “起来起来！时辰到了——你就是哭死到这里，有屁的用场！谁叫他犯法的？走！”
