After the case was solved, Chun’an Zhi Xian was the first to clear the waterway on the river and restore the water traffic.
Before boarding the boat, the governor of Chun’an expressed his gratitude to Zhu Pingan for his assistance in solving the case.
Of course, in order not to delay the crowd in time, Chun’an governor simply thanked him, but Zhu Ping’an was like hearing a thunderclap, just like Cao Cao and Liu Bei discussing heroes over a cup of wine and Liu Bei dropping his chopsticks in amazement. Until the boat, Zhu Pingan emotions are still a little abnormal.
Hai Rui!
That Chunan governor is actually Hai Rui!
Call yourself by your name, call people by their words, this is the basic etiquette of the ancient literati, just now Chun’an governor thank you is to call himself Hai Rui! Hai Rui this name can be said to be a business card of the Ming Dynasty.
I didn’t expect that I would run into Hai Rui here, now think about Hai Rui’s patched official uniform, and his body of pride and righteousness, as well as the style of not showing favouritism and not fearing the powerful, should have guessed that it was him. Especially Chun’an governor, which is the first time Hai Rui entered the officialdom on the local officials.
Although previously met Yan Song, Xu Shi, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng these cattle, but this time to see Hai Rui, Zhu Pingan emotion is still very excited.
Hai Rui this is Chinese history can be and Bao Zheng side by side with the clean official, is the ancient model officials, but also the people’s mouth is one of the few big master of the blue sky. Legends and stories about him are widely circulated among the people.
Of course, Hai Rui is also a controversial figure in history. There are a lot of stories about Hai Rui in the wild history. For example, the story of Hai Rui forcing his 5-year-old daughter to starve to death. Wild history records, Hai Rui has a 5-year-old daughter, innocent and very cute, a manservant gave her a cake to eat. In the daughter to eat, Hai Rui found the daughter asked where the cake came from, the daughter answered truthfully. Hai Rui was furious, rebuked, starved to death is a small matter of loss of temperament is a big thing, the girl’s family how can accept the manservant’s cake to eat it, if you know the shame, starve to death, to be regarded as my Hai Rui’s daughter. His daughter was scared and cried, and refused to eat any more, and then she really starved to death.
If this wild record is true, then Hai Rui is simply too incomprehensible! Simply a moralistic and pedantic pervert and hypocrite!
However, come to think of it, this account was too nonsensical! Zhu Pingan before also deliberately checked the history books, in all of the Ming Dynasty in the official history are not about there to find the record of this matter. Hai Rui starved to death of his daughter’s story, has been to the “Wanli wild access to the compilation” only recorded, but this book is not the history, but the wild history, the author of the death of Hai Rui is only nine years old, that is to say, Hai Rui died at least twenty years after the wild history and the author also said that this matter is only what he had heard, did not get the confirmation of the rumour.
Most likely, Hai Rui starved to death of his daughter’s matter when the political enemy rumour smear just.
Of course, not that there is no possibility.
Modern people can not be confirmed, but they can ah, they have just seen Hai Rui it, just can verify the history and wild history about Hai Rui’s record and the fact whether it is consistent, who let himself difficult in this dynasty it.
Hai Rui starved his daughter ……
First of all, Hai Rui has to have a daughter to be able to do, as if there is no record in the official history that Hai Rui has a daughter ……
Zhu Pingan slightly shook his head and smiled, then cleaned up his emotions, lowered his head and ate his breakfast, which was sent up by the owner of the ship, four dishes and one soup is very sumptuous, fresh fish soup in the river, seasonal vegetables, delicious.
Because the ship owner knew about Zhu Pingan’s status as a Hanlin official, he refused to let Zhu Pingan live in the original cabin again, and specially packed out a room with the best location and highest comfort level for Zhu Pingan to rest.
Breakfast was also just sent up.
As for the goodwill of the ship owner, Zhu Pingan politely refused several times to no avail, and had no choice but to accept it. This was the superiority of status, no wonder so many people were trying to join the civil service by taking the imperial examinations.
Not long after Zhu Pingan finished his breakfast, Yingtianfu was close at hand, and after sailing for another two quarters of an hour, he arrived at Yingtianfu.
After the boat stopped, Zhu Pingan will things packed up out of the cabin, outside the owner of the boat has held Zhu Pingan’s horse waiting on the deck, very attentive to send Zhu Pingan off the boat. After getting off the boat, the boat owner also insisted on sending Zhu Pingan 50 taels of silver for the journey, but was firmly rejected by Zhu Pingan.
Living in the upper class cabin and eating others’ breakfast is already too much, how can he collect others’ money again, he is not a corrupt official.
After getting off the boat, Zhu Pingan also did not want to stay in Yingtianfu for a long time, out of courtesy, Zhu Pingan considered visiting his eldest uncle and other townspeople and set off to the north. It is not difficult to find the inn where the eldest uncle and other people landed, Zhu Pingan thought about it and went to the inn where the eldest uncle’s last student examination was held, and sure enough, when he went to the counter and asked, he knew that the eldest uncle and other people were living in this inn again this time.
However, there was no visit to the eldest uncle.
The eldest uncle and a few townspeople went to support a certain newly released female school book again, I heard that the eldest uncle and other people in recent days are early in the morning to go out, before the curfew to come back or the next day early in the morning to come back. ……
Well, this is very eldest uncle Zhu Shouren.
Just based on this behaviour of the eldest uncle, without having to take a test, Zhu Pingan has already predicted the end of the eldest uncle.
Female school book?
This is nothing!
Exams should be like exams! What’s the point of being a schoolgirl? Really think of it as a publicly funded trip!!!! Never learnt a lesson!!! If the grandparents knew about this, they’d be furious!
Since the eldest uncle is not there, then forget it, the wind and flowers of the place, Zhu Pingan is too lazy to go, the eldest uncle and other people chasing the face of the female school books, Zhu Pingan is even too lazy to see, too hot eyes. In the lobby of the inn, Zhu Pingan left a note to say goodbye, the note was written in a few lines to let the eldest uncle and others know that he had come, and before he left, he asked the shopkeeper to hand it to the eldest uncle when he came back.
After leaving the inn, Zhu Pingan rode his horse all the way north.
During the day to catch the road, the night to borrow the night, or post or residential, sometimes or temple, deserted mountains and wilderness sleep almost no, is a little later Zhu Pingan will walk a few more moments to find people to borrow the night.
Jiangnan more paddy fields, more dry fields in the north, Zhu Pingan on the road is more experienced. The further north you go, the less paddy fields there are. Borrowing a home or the road to meet the farmers, Zhu Pingan will always talk with the local people for a moment, to understand the harvest and taxes and other situations, people for the simple rush of young people do not have a lot of wariness, along the way Zhu Pingan for the rule of the people’s lives across the Ming dynasty also has a lot more knowledge.
In the era of feudalism, people’s standard of living has too much to do with the local officials.
The tax, the decree, and so on and so forth.
Zhu Pingan recorded what he saw and heard and the problems mentioned in people’s gossip before he went to bed at night and waited to study them slowly after he arrived at the capital.
This day, Zhu Pingan rushed through a village called Ma Jiazhuang, the village seems to be an empty city, did not see a person, if not the barking of dogs and the sound of livestock coming from the village, Zhu Pingan suspected that he had come to the abandoned village.
However, just out of the village, Zhu Pingan saw the front of the crowd, drums and gongs, a sea of people around the river, it turned out to be the village people have run here, it looks like something big happened.
Looking at the situation, it seems to be a river sacrifice?
