"Don't blame others for their innocence. The good people don't want to see the poor people suffering and are willing to lend money. Do you think anyone can borrow it if they want to? Jiao Hong, your family is well off and you don't know the hardships of the poor people. The ordinary people who have borrowed money from rice and rice fields are not working well, why should they be grateful? Don't slander people here!" Gu Xiancheng immediately found a foothold to refute.
Looking at this problem from the perspective of a commoner, if you mortgage all your land, you are at the end of your rope. If you want to ask a good person to borrow money, you have to find someone to help intercede. Otherwise, you can borrow whatever you want. If you don’t kowtow twice, shed tears of gratitude, or say a few auspicious words, that is disrespectful!
"Hahaha!" Jiao Hong laughed several times and sneered: "Am I claiming that you are innocent? If you are really innocent, is it a false accusation?"
"What you are saying is the reversal of cause and effect. The common people are deprived of money and food. They have to kowtow to borrow money everywhere. You are very capable of reversing cause and effect. You have to collect taxes, grain rent, and private requests from the countryside. , the people are forced to have a hard time, that’s why!”
"Aren't you still trying to say that the imperial court imposed excessive taxes, arbitrarily assessed taxes, and created clever names, so the villagers looked to us for protection?"
Zhu Yijun showed a smile. At this time, Jiao Hong showed his sharpness, but soon, he would have his first edge broken. He wanted to take the imperial examination, but he offended the former number one scholar. This guy lobbied a little in the Hanlin Academy. Now, it would be difficult for Jiao Hong to even try.
"Why don't you speak again? I said what you want to say, so you can't say anything?" Jiao Hongle shook his head and said, he was already prepared. Once Gu Xiancheng spoke like this, Jiao Hong's counterattack immediately followed him, Daming The current Qing Dynasty is in full swing, which is strong evidence.
"Censor Geng, is this your disciple? He is so eloquent and sharp-tongued." Sun Jigao's face was refuted. His face was quite gentle, but his tone became increasingly cold.
Jiao Hong doesn't know how to praise.
Geng Dingxiang knew that today's appeal was in vain. Hearing Sun Jigao's words, he felt unhappy in his heart. Geng Dingxiang was a well-known figure after all. The government was in charge of academic affairs. Geng Dingxiang was also in charge of academic affairs. He still had some abilities. He had a strange yin and yang attitude. He said: "He is indeed my disciple. He is a little talented, but he is so arrogant. Look at what he said to others, and there is nothing to say."
He said that his disciple was arrogant, but he was actually criticizing Gu Xiancheng for being incompetent. If he couldn't criticize others, he would ask for help.
"Jiao Hong, where are you from? What is your place of origin?" Sun Jigao was not willing to directly antagonize Geng Dingxiang, and planned to take action himself to teach this madman a lesson. In the realm of the capital, he will be controlled by me even if he is a dragon!
"My father, Lieutenant Jiang Ningqi." Jiao Hong chose to answer directly. There is nothing shameful about being born in a military family.
"Hereditary honorary officer, from the fourth rank, you are from Jiangning. Do you have anyone else in your family?" Sun Jigao asked with a smile.
Jiao Hong continued: "My ancestors followed Taizu Emperor Gao to fight in the war and settled in Nanjing. During the Zhengde and Jiajing years, there were still famines and epidemics. Every family withered and my father was the only one."
"Oh, it turns out that we are both a military household and a poor family." Sun Jigao looked like he suddenly realized something.
Jiao Hong's background was exposed, but he said without taking it seriously: "So what?" So it proves that what Gu Xiancheng said is wrong. He said that I don't know the hard work of ordinary people. Yes, my family has a family background, but that's just The remaining thresholds are in tatters. I know the sufferings of the people because I am also a common person."
The Ming Dynasty court was in deficit every year. To inherit martial arts hereditary, they had to borrow travel expenses to travel to Beijing to inherit. Li Chengliang had no travel expenses and was delayed until he was forty years old. Moreover, the military honors did not have much salary. Jiao Hong's family had long been in ruins.
"I settled down and went to the city to beg for food." Sun Jigao wanted to scold Jiao Hong for breaking the defense, but after he said this, Jiao Hong remained unmoved.
Jiao Hong half-raised his head, looked at Sun Jigao, his eyes became more disdainful, and said with a sneer: "What a famous scholar, the court is full of these rats who only care about family status, this official, it doesn't matter if you don't do it, you can take the test, don't take the test It’s okay.”
"Mencius said: Shun was raised in the countryside, Fu Shuo was raised in the building, Jiao Ge was raised in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu was raised in the army, Sun Shu'ao was raised in the sea, Baili Xi was raised in the city."
"Today we look at the past and look at the present from the past. Even Meng Sheng couldn't tell where he came from. Today's Confucians are contemptuous and despised."
"Shame on you!"
Jiao Hong directly attacked Sun Jigao by quoting scriptures. I heard that Sun Jigao could not even argue with a twelve-year-old emperor. Today, I saw that it was indeed the case. He was just a weak and coward without generosity and perseverance.
Sun Jigao lost for a while and knew that he had not found the right entry point this time. He said: "Young man, don't be too arrogant. The way you follow is just a small way after all. The so-called Zhipiao means that one person can remove people and things and talk about things. In other words, where in the world can there be such a thing as the theory of 朘pee?”
"The eagles hunt foxes on the grassland, the foxes hunt rabbits and rats, and the rabbits and rats eat grass roots. It's nothing more than that. There is no such thing as "zhuo peel".
"People castrate pigs so that they can grow up faster so that they can be slaughtered and eaten for meat. Is this how people are skinning pigs, rabbits, goats, and chickens? Obviously not. This is how all things in the world are infinite, so where does the idea of skinning come from?"
"The world is like this. Why can Yuan Fu act so wantonly? Isn't it because His Majesty can't personally govern, and others can only lie dormant? Yuan Fu is just the eagle flying in the sky on the grassland, taking everything he wants."
Sun Jigao's words made Geng Dingxiang feel a little sad. Zhang Juzheng said he wanted to arrest He Xinyin and Zeng Guang, and he was arrested. He Xinyin was arrested in Huguang, and Zeng Guang was even arrested as soon as he got off the boat.
As the director of Chongzheng College, Geng Dingxiang was indeed frightened by Zhang Juzheng's wanton behavior.
Geng's stance was never firm, just like most people's.
Jiao Hong frowned. Sun Jigao's words extended the relationship between people to all things, and it seems that this is how it should be.
For a moment, Jiao Hong was unable to refute.
"No, no." A slightly high-pitched voice came, and the noble man wearing a blue worsted woolen suit appeared in front of the private room door.
"Who are you? Why do you want to barge into a private banquet?" Sun Jigao asked with a frown. He felt that the green and purple nobleman in front of him looked familiar, but he had forgotten where he had seen him.
Sun Jigao no longer recognized the little emperor. It had been two years since he met the emperor. At that time, he knelt on the ground to meet him and did not dare to raise his head to take a closer look. Now the little emperor has grown much taller.
Sun Jigao was still not qualified to go to the palace, so he stood outside and did not dare to move.
Sun Jigao didn't dare to underestimate the man in front of him. Most of the worsted woolen cloth was used directly by the palace. If he wanted to buy it, he would have to ask for help. This outfit, coupled with a lot of odds and ends hanging around his waist, and the people who followed him At first glance, these two people are not ordinary people.
A man with a clean face and no beard is obviously an eunuch, with a sinister look in his eyes, while the other one has a fierce look. Although he is very young, he is not a good person at first glance.
The imperial court prohibited the use of eunuchs among the people, but there were many large families who used them privately.
These two people are Zhang Hong and Luo Sigong.
Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Penglai Huang family, we also come from a military family. I heard how noisy you guys were today, so I saw that Hunter was happy, so I came over to join in the fun."
"Is it the Penglai Huang family who is related by marriage to Qian'an Bo Qi Shuai's family?" After Sun Jigao went through the noble people in his mind, a smile appeared on his face.
Qi Jiguang was from Shandong, and he also had a younger brother named Qi Jimei. After Qi Jiguang became prosperous, Qi Jimei married the eldest daughter of the Huang family. When Sun Jigao heard about the Penglai Huang family, he immediately remembered this family.
Zhu Yijun did not say much, but sat down and said: "We think what you said is wrong. Humans are the primates of all things. Humans are different from eagles, foxes, snakes, and rats. Humans are human beings. I am a human being. From a human standpoint, People should not be compared to eagles, foxes, snakes, and sage.”
"Are you going to compare yourself to the eagle, fox, snake, and sage?"
Zhu Yijun didn't respect the old or the young at all, so he asked Sun Jigao if he was a human being.
"It's just a metaphor. It's just a metaphor." Sun Jigao actually didn't want to offend such a powerful family. When the time comes, the kid will run to complain to Qi Shuai. Qi Shuai won't do anything, but if Zhang Juzheng finds out, Sun Jigao will definitely not be able to take advantage of it. Walk along.
Sun Jigao didn't want to deny the fact that he was human.
"Look, you don't want to compare yourself with snakes and rats, and you use snakes and rats as a metaphor for the relationship between people. This is wrong." Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "If it is the relationship between people, According to the discussion during the period, Zhepi is common. At present, the Ming Dynasty is expropriating large households, and the big households are expropriating small people."
"But does this phenomenon make sense if it is common? Does it mean it is right if it has always been the case?"
The imperial court will not exploit the big households, and it will not exploit the small people if it wins the big households.
Sun Jigao finally couldn't help but replied: "It's always been like this, of course it's right! Otherwise, everyone would do this?"
Zhu Yijun immediately said: "Then why didn't the imperial court implement the ancestral law established during the Hongwu period? They took fifty taels of ink, peeled off their skins and picked off the grass, peeled off the skins of corrupt officials, and stood them in the Tutu Temple for people to see clearly. This has always been the case. That’s right.”
Sun Jigao immediately panicked. The imperial examination was already harsh enough. Now the court was killing corrupt people. If such torture were carried out again, he, Sun Jigao, would be a sinner. He immediately said: "Don't talk nonsense! When will Emperor Gao be skinned?" It’s a waste of time, there is no clear text, there are no examples, and there are no actual records in the history of the country.”
Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "It is clearly written that in the thirty years of Hongwu, there was a law of eighty times of twisting and twisting of the law. At that time, there were many scholars and honest officials, and the people had no worries about fishing and robbery."
Zhu Yijun has read every volume completed in the Ming Dynasty Huidian and took notes! He was a person who put his words into practice. In the thirty years of Hongwu's reign, he was hanged eighty times for corruption.
According to this standard, Liu Liangbi and Pei Zhongzhang have been hanged tens of thousands of times. However, the current social status quo is that corrupt officials will not be hanged, but the corrupt officials will be recovered and exiled to the army.
"This, this, this, you can't talk nonsense!" Sun Jigao had received 800 taels of silver from Gu Xiancheng. According to Hongwu's old practice, he would have been hanged ten times.
"So, it's always been like this, it's not right, right, it should be like this, it's common, it doesn't mean it's reasonable, it's just that it can't be solved at the moment." Zhu Yijun made another victory.
This Sun Jigao is not very good. Of course, it may be that Zhu Yijun is too sharp-tongued.
Zhu Yijun took out a silver coin, threw it on the table, turned it over, and said with a smile: "Actually, it is one-sided to only talk about the use value given by human labor intensity and time. In the exchange value, supply and demand account for a huge proportion." Regarding proportion, talking about price without value is just like talking about value without price, which is not practical."
"Value and price are mutually exclusive, which is in line with the characteristics of the theory of contradiction. They are opposites but unified, just like this imperial silver coin, which is one body and two sides."
"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhu Yijun looked at Sun Jigao. Since he entered the stage as an opposing debater and won a victory, he naturally wanted to continue competing in the ring.
Sun Jigao said that expropriation is a matter of course, so it is the obligation of the court to reduce the prevalence of expropriation. The specific definition of expropriation is to deprive the value of labor for free or at extremely unreasonable prices based on the means of production.
"Discussing supply and demand is very important, just like discussing the income and expenditure in the accounts. It has a lot of effect on studying price fluctuations. Anyway, supply and demand must be discussed." Sun Jigao did not have any more opinions, but he believed that supply and demand are very important. It is necessary to talk.
If the Tomb Sect is divided into layers, Sun Jigao lives close to the surface and is confused.
Zhu Yijun did not refute again. He had already said that supply and demand are issues that must be discussed. They are completely dependent on labor intensity and time and are not in line with practice.
Supply and demand are of course up for discussion.
Jiao Hong was overjoyed when he saw that Sun Jigao was being talked about and started talking nonsense. He took out a greeting card and said, "You kid is really interesting. I have an invitation. If you come to Nanya, you can come and visit me." "
Zhu Yijun put away the invitation and said with a smile on his face: "Is the brothel okay? My husband is very strict and refuses to let me go to the brothel."
"You can't do it at your age. You can wait until after you are sixteen." Jiao Hong smiled even more.
Zhu Yijun stood up and left. The discussion about supply and demand was still continuing. Zhu Yijun returned to his box and saw Zhang Ju tossing silver coins.
After he left, Jiao Hong also stood up and said goodbye without saying anything. Since he was not a member of the same group, there was no need to continue sitting at the same table.
Zhu Yijun heard the commotion and signaled Zhang Hong to invite Jiao Hong and Geng Dingxiang to the box.
Geng Dingliang was stunned when he saw Zhang Juzheng!
Geng Dingxiang didn't know the young emperor, but he knew Zhang Juzheng. The person sitting on the main seat was naturally the Ming Emperor.
In the Ming Dynasty, when eating with Zhang Juzheng, the only people who dared to sit on the throne were probably the emperor and Zhang Juzheng's parents.
"See your majesty, long live your majesty..." Geng Dingming kowtowed directly. He had already guessed that if he didn't show courtesy, he was deliberately overstepping his bounds. Jiao Hongren was immediately dumbfounded. After being stunned for a long time, he knelt down. The two people's greetings were ignored. Tiqi stood up and motioned for them to speak quietly.
Zhu Yijun indicated that they didn't need to be polite and just sit down.
Jiao Hong looked at His Majesty blankly. He was very articulate at a young age, which fit Jiao Hong's stereotype of the Ming Emperor.
Sun Jigao had been scolded by the little emperor before and could not hold his head up. This matter was widely known, especially by Zhang Jin, the military eunuch, and Zhang Cheng, the Songjiang admiral and chamberlain.
Civil servants and eunuchs have been enemies for thousands of years. Now that they have finally found the opportunity, why don't they go all out to exaggerate and humiliate them? !
"You can't take your majesty to the brothel!" As soon as Jiao Hong sat down, Zhang Juzheng warned directly, his voice was not loud, but his tone was stern.
Song Huizong and his courtiers had become the laughing stock of Li Shishi through the ages. There had been a scandal before in the Ming Dynasty, but this kind of scandal could not happen again. Even if His Majesty really fell in love with a brothel girl, he had to clean it up and clean it up. Only when your life experience is clean can you go ashore.
Jiao Hong was so frightened that he kept saying yes. Zhang Juzheng had strict educational requirements for the young emperor, and it was known all over the world that he actually wanted to take the emperor to a brothel. This was no longer an ordinary boldness.
"I'll give you a Quanchu Guild Hall waist card. If someone tries to make things difficult for you, go to Quan Chu Guild Hall to find You Qi. He will tell me." Zhang Juzheng took out a Quan Chu Guild Hall waist card and handed it to you. He picked up Jiao Hong and motioned for him to take it.
Qi Jiguang looked at the belt card with a smile on his face. He knew that the belt card was more powerful than the Wengu drum.
When Wang Chonggu wanted to bully Qi Jiguang, Zhang Juzheng directly punched Wang Chonggu in the court hall, which made Wang Chonggu dizzy.
"I have no money." Jiao Hong said after looking at the waistband for a long time.
Holding this badge costs two thousand taels of silver a year. Jiao Hong's father is a hereditary official and his salary is not generous. Thanks to his father starting a business in his early years, the family still has some money for him to study everywhere, but this is already the limit. .
Whether there is good fortune or not depends entirely on Jiao Hong himself.
Jiao Hong couldn't even afford the eight hundred taels of Xiu given to Sun Jigao.
Sometimes, the opportunity is right in front of you. It's not that you don't want to seize it, but that you can't seize it.
In fact, Jiao Hong is not very interested in entering the officialdom. The main reason is that the officialdom is smoky and it is really not interesting. People like him cannot get involved in the officialdom, and he does not want to be attached to the powerful. Some of his actions towards Zhang Juzheng, I don't agree with it.
Especially the sixty-four academies were destroyed. Many of these sixty-four academies were members of the Xin Xue Wang sect.
In his opinion, Zhang Juzheng was a disciple of Xinxue. After taking over the country, he first killed Xu Jie, then captured He Xinyin, a disciple of Xinxue, and destroyed the Sixty-Four Academy. He was a traitor to the Xinxue Wang Sect.
Of course, Jiao Hong also knew that Zhang Juzheng was very powerful, and paradoxically said that this knowledge was really powerful.
Jiao Hong's understanding of Zhang Juzheng was very awkward.
"Now there is no need to pay tribute with ice and carbon." Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Hai Zongxian is trying to eliminate corruption in the court. If Hai Zongxian catches him, won't my Forest of Happy Steles be one foot tall?"
"Take it."
It costs a lot of money to maintain the Quan Jin, Quan Chu, and Quan Zhejiang guild halls. I won't accept the Bing Jing Carbon. How to maintain it?
Asking the emperor for a budget was a method proposed by Ge Shouli, who had assumed the authority of the emperor, and it did not use national funds, but internal funds.
And there is a way to pass the exam. For example, this year the Jin Party's clan party was liquidated and the Jin Party's funds were directly cut. Wang Chonggu came to the door and said that it was all because of his nephew, and he was ready to sponsor him to tide over the difficulties.
But Ge Shouli refused. Taking the money from Quan Hao was to serve as an official for Quan Hao.
Ge Shouli, a master of party building, is still discussing with Zhang Juzheng what the regulations are for each party's examination.
The Quanchu Guild Hall brand is actually worth two thousand taels, especially for people who can do things. For people who don't do anything, this brand is something they can't even think about.
Seeing that Jiao Hong refused to accept the money, he still refused to accept it. He thought about it and asked again and again: "Sir, why do you want to kill He Xinyin? It's just that you don't miss the friendship between the same family, why do you want to harm him? It's all because of the thirty-five years of Jiajing, He Xinyin Are you offending your husband by debating with him in Beijing?"
"Together with Zeng Guang, he gathered a group of gossips and went to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou to instigate the chieftain to rebel. I will kill him." Zhang Juzheng put down his belt card and thought about it for a while, then figured out the reason and looked at Jiao Hong. Asked: "Don't you know?"
When Jiao Hong heard this, he frowned and said, "I don't know, I saw the newspaper copy, but I didn't have any intention of hiding anything."
"Sure enough." Zhang Juzheng shook his head.
"Taken out of context." Zhu Yijun said sincerely.
This thing has proven successful over and over again, and newspapers will be copied by the newspaper copying room in the imperial palace.
When these documents were copied, they must have been taken out of context. It was possible that a certain sentence was singled out for the sake of attracting attention, or it was possible that someone had instructed them to copy it incorrectly on purpose.
Jiao Hong's face turned ugly and he clenched his fists. He claimed to be different from the humble Confucians, but now it seems that there is no difference!
He was still deceived, and he still fell for such a simple trick!
Zhang Juzheng's face was slightly confused, and finally he smiled with relief. This smile contained a lot of helplessness.
As the Yuan Fu of the empire, he is very aware of this trick. It is a common phenomenon. Behind this problem, there is a more terrifying problem, that is, the credibility of the imperial court is going bankrupt, and the credibility of the imperial court has been systematically undermined. Destruction, most people no longer trust the court.
This kind of systematic destruction occurs in all aspects.
Even a practical Confucian scholar like Jiao Hong, who was already a very smart and pragmatic Confucian scholar, when he heard that the imperial court had killed people, he did not feel that He Xinyin deserved to die, but felt that Zhang Juzheng killed people because of old grudges, making the imperial court look like As long as he says it, he can do whatever he wants.
Understand Tan Lun, recognize Tan Lun, and become Tan Lun. Tan Lun didn't just scream to kill him from the beginning. Is this still forced?
Zhang Juzheng can better understand that Tan Lun is particularly aggressive every time.
"Just bring these cheap scholars together and kill them all. Some of them may be unjust, but if you kill every other one, there will be too many fish that slip through the net!" Zhu Yijun exhaled a depressed breath, what is this all about?
Jiao Hong put away the Quanchu Guild Hall's badge, he might really be able to use it.
This Sun Jigao didn't dare to do anything to Mr. Huang, but he had a way to deal with this poor family who only had one threshold left.
The meal was very quiet, and there was no talk during eating or sleeping. However, various lively sounds kept coming from the box next door. It didn't take long for silk and bamboo music to be heard, as well as the laughter of warblers and swallows.
When Zhu Yijun was leaving with people, he suddenly heard a charming voice.
"Young gentleman is so handsome, are you here to eat meat? Come here, sister, I will help you open your eyes to the methods of our fireworks world, and make sure that your husband will never come back." A woman with a very voluptuous figure looked at Zhu Yijun was handsome and charming, and for a moment he was so excited that he joked.
Zhao Mengyou directly pulled out the knife three points, and Zhu Yijun held Zhao Mengyou's hand, indicating that he didn't need to make a fuss.
"What's so bad! I, Liu Qiniang, am also the oiran of Yanxing House. I serve meat to your young master without taking any money from your young master." Liu Qiniang was so frightened that she became weak when Zhao Mengyou glared at her.
Zhao Mengyou served as the commander of the capital in Yunyang in the fifth year of Longqing's reign, and was a close friend of the bloodthirsty Ling Yunyi, the governor of Yunyang. Yunyang was plagued by civil unrest, and Zhao Mengyou was also a fierce man who had killed bandits and powerful men.
"My family is very strict, so I thank the fairy for her kindness." Zhu Yijun replied with a smile and left Yanxing Tower. Fairy and goddess are all titles for women in brothels.
If Zhu Yijun didn't answer, Feng Bao would have to sink Liu Qiniang into the well if he turned around.
"Seventh girl, you are here, I have found you, and Sun Daguan has been here many times, asking you to serve him by name, so you should go quickly, just think of it as helping grandma, okay? Ancestor!" A heavily made-up madam rushed over immediately when she saw Liu Qiniang.
"Then go." Liu Qiniang was also helpless. She had already pushed him away many times. If he pushed back again, Sun Jigao was afraid that he would lose his temper regardless of etiquette.
Liu Qiniang and the madam walked a few steps and were met by the boy who walked into the side compartment.
When the old bustard saw the person in front of him, he was so scared that he almost came out of his wits. The old bustard had never seen this person before. He was said to be the most noble man in Yanxing Tower. He had no beard on his face. This noble man only had one hobby, which was sinking wells. .
"Liu Qiniang, you stay here. Madam, you go out and find someone to deal with Sun Jigao." Xu Jue's tone was quite gentle.
Xu Jue took a look at Liu Qiniang. This oiran was good, but only good. He said calmly: "From today on, don't stay in Yanxing Tower anymore. Go to Yongshenghao Woolen Factory to be a weaver. Although Life is not as luxurious as here, but it is practical.”
"But the matter of redemption..." Liu Qiniang's expression was extremely wonderful. She didn't know what happened at all, so she just asked blankly.
"Just take this badge." Xu Jue took a badge from the Yongsheng Woolen Factory from the drawer and handed it to Liu Qiniang.
Liu Qiniang went to Yongshenghao Woolen Factory with countless doubts.
Xu Jue did this under the instruction of Feng Bao. The fundamental purpose of Feng Bao's doing this was to protect the face of the royal family. If His Majesty grows up and takes over the power in the future, and suddenly thinks of such a person, he will not give birth to anything that will harm the face of the royal family. thing.
Speaking of which, it is also a scandal in Lao Zhu's family.
In the 13th year of Zhengtong, Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen issued an edict to select beautiful women to enter the palace, and those who were not selected to leave the palace.
The daughter of Shi Xuan, a member of the Miyun Guard family, was selected as a palace concubine. There were too many choices. The courtiers were so noisy that the empress dowager, the mother-in-law of the Ming Ying clan, had to issue an edict: Do not go beyond the nine concubines. This Shi Xuan The daughter took a sum of money and left the palace.
Qi Shao, the minister of the Ministry of Justice, liked the woman very much when he saw her, and asked Xu Qi, the minister of the Ministry of War, and Zhao Hui, the prince-in-law, to work as matchmakers to marry Shi Xuan's daughter.
The minister Qi Shao and Shi Xuan's daughter were getting married. Unexpectedly, Ming Yingzong issued another decree to summon Shi Xuan's daughter to the palace to serve as his bedmate.
Wouldn't this cause trouble? The Ming Emperor robbed women from his courtiers.
Shi Xuan's daughters were all married, so naturally they could not sleep in the palace.
Xu Qi and Zhao Hui, who acted as matchmakers, quickly bribed the traitor Wang Zhen. Wang Zhen was immediately convicted of Qi Shao's crime and was imprisoned in June and beheaded in early July.
After her husband died, the widowed Shi Xuan's daughter entered Baiyi Nunnery and became a nun.
It is not a glorious thing for the emperor and his ministers to rob women, but according to the ancestral law, the woman who has spoken to your majesty must be settled. If your majesty does not mention it, this woman will not be able to marry again after three to five years. People, this is the rule in the palace, so don’t make a joke.
Zhi Niang Liu Qiniang's new life has begun.
Liu Qiniang made an embroidered bag. Although she didn't know who the young man was, she knew it was all because of the young man. She was full of expectations for her new life.
A new life is to live as a human being.
The life in Yanxing Tower is extremely extravagant. Some people may like such extravagance, but Liu Qiniang knows that those extravagances are poisonous to human life. She has witnessed many tragedies with her own eyes. She has made a life-long private contract with a scholar, but she can't see through it; Some were in pain and were thrown into a deserted woodshed to fend for themselves; some were beaten by customers with a bruised nose and face and had to force themselves to smile; some were beaten to death by customers and were casually carried and thrown into mass graves without anyone caring about them;
Now, Liu Qiniang is Zhi Niang.
Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! !
