Chapter 34 Loads
If it weren't for the fact that such a thing happened to the show girl surnamed Zhang, in fact, Zhang Zhaohua would not have discovered Ma's secret. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The matter originated from a very accidental thing, because Zhang Zhaohua's Gong bucket cracked, and the cracked Gong bucket naturally could not be used anymore, Xiu Nu had a total of two Gong buckets for backup, every seven or eight days or so, the toilet had to be brought to a fixed place, and naturally someone would clean it and send it back, so Zhang Zhaohua's two Gong buckets, one was taken to wash, and the other was cracked. It was not until about four or five days later that a batch of newly made screens and buckets were sent over.
So how did Zhang Zhaohua solve the problem these days, she went to the "official toilet" to go to the toilet.
You must know that at this time, ordinary people's homes rarely have such high-end Gong buckets ready, and the owners of large households generally use Gong buckets to go to the toilet, and slaves or small families go to the official toilet. Just like Nanjing, a big city in Beijing, residents who want to go to the toilet have to go out of their homes to the "official toilet" in a street and alley to solve the problem. The "official toilet" is a simple building similar to the public toilet in later generations.
Of course, there is an official toilet in the garden, and the design of this palace of kings is obviously in all aspects. Because according to the direction of the wind blowing in Jinling, the toilet was moved to the northwest corner, and the southeast wind blowing in spring and summer blew the stench out, avoiding the possibility of the whole garden smelling.
The official toilet is located in the northwest corner of the garden, only one wall away from the fourth courtyard. Of course, I want to explain how this garden is designed, it is a large garden with a small garden structure, and there is a wall and a corner gate between the big and small gardens, so they can go out from the small garden and enjoy the scenery in the big garden, but now that the kings have come, the corner gate is sealed, and the show girl can only loosen up in the small garden, and cannot go beyond the corner gate in the slightest, because there are guards in front of the door.
The landscape of the small garden is relatively cramped, and naturally it is not as open as the large garden. However, those who thought about the original design should have thought of one point, that is, the big garden is a place for the owner to enjoy, and an official toilet was set up in the small garden to facilitate the toileting.
Zhang Zhaohua has no gong bucket, which is very inconvenient, like Wang, every time he goes to the toilet, he has to run to the garden, for example, when everyone is taking a nap at noon on this day, Zhang Zhaohua has an urgency.
It is said that the palace maids can't sleep at noon in order to serve people, and at first the aunts also asked them to be show girls, but many show girls can't support it, and when they get to that point after eating, everyone is dozing off, silent, and they don't have anything to do when they go back to their own rooms but don't let them squint, which is very inhumane, so Ma asked the aunts to be accommodating, and finally gave them half an hour to take a nap.
So when everyone else was sleeping, the urge to urinate forced Zhang Zhaohua to tidy up her clothes and go to the toilet in the garden, but fortunately, the aunt who was on patrol knew that she had no choice but to go to the official toilet to go to the toilet, so she waved her hand and let her go.
Zhang Zhaohua solved the problem and was about to walk out of the toilet with his skirt, but he didn't expect the sound of rustling from the other end of the toilet, and after a while, there were slight footsteps and talking through the brick cracks.
"Your Highness. A very familiar voice sounded, which made Zhang Zhaohua stop unconsciously.
"Your Highness," was a woman's voice, "you can't come again, and I can't sneak out again." ”
"Why," a gentle voice was very pleasant, "Is it because of the Zhang family who was teased by Qin Shizi?"
"It's because I can't control myself in my heart, ignoring the etiquette and law, and I came over the wall," the woman seemed to be very anxious and at a loss: "I have violated the repeated teachings of the grandmothers." ”
"You and I are in love with each other," the man said, "Besides, isn't the etiquette they teach for the sake of understanding the way of humanity, and isn't the way of humanity the righteousness of heaven and earth, yin and yang?"
"Your Highness is so likely, the heavens and the earth are loaded," the woman said, "Your Highness is the sky, where can I be worthy of being compared with Your Highness?"
"I am the sky, you are the earth, the earth that inherits the heavens, the earth that is thick and loaded," the man seemed to laugh and said, "The earth, Kun also." The Kun hexagram is symbolized by the mare, which belongs to a category of symbolic land, and the single hexagram Kun collapses into the Tai hexagram, which means that heaven and earth are sympathetic and all things are unimpeded, and also means that heaven and earth are suitable. Your surname is Ma, and your father divined a kun hexagram for you before you got married, isn't it that God has destined you to marry me and be the person of the world in the future?"
Zhang Zhaohua's head was dizzy with shock, and she almost had to hold her hands against the wall to stand firmly—not only because she knew the identity of this woman, which was Ma, but also because she finally remembered what she had been forgetting before.
Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son died, and he set up a grandson, this grandson is the tragic character who has been portrayed in countless film and television dramas in later generations, the famous Zhu Yunwen who lost the country and was forced to self-immolate by his tough uncle!
She actually left such an important matter at this moment today to remember!
Zhang Zhaohua hated to shave his ears hard, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Di, she actually wasted her identity as a traverser! After forgetting Hongwu, it was a shocking cut of the domain, and then it was the "Jing Difficulty" that changed the day, and what good end could she have if she married into the royal family at this time!
The person who spoke was so sure that he was the person on the dragon chair in the future, and Ma didn't refute him, isn't it because he is the heir of Zhu Yuanzhang's fancy and support, the grandson Zhu Yunwen!
No wonder those female officials secretly flatter Ma's family, I think they know it, this Ma family is the person that His Royal Highness Taisun has a fancy to, and at the end of the selection of show girls, as long as Zhu Yunwen greets a few concubines in the harem, and then a few female officials who speak to him say good things about Ma in front of the emperor, Ma is a sure concubine! Her identity as the daughter of a civil official is the best capital, and even when she arrives in front of the emperor, Ma is so smart, she will definitely be able to respond appropriately and pass Zhu Yuanzhang's assessment.
But that doesn't explain why she sees herself as a threat, because she has nowhere else to threaten her.
The personal relationship between Ma and Taisun can not be used as a handle to control Ma's, but may be a gunpowder that ignites at the touch of a button, and if you are not careful, you will burn yourself. And Zhang Zhaohua, who didn't recall this period of Ming Palace history until today, was already distraught, but she never expected that such a thrilling history was about to happen, and she could witness it with her own eyes.
How many years has Hongwu been in total? Come on, come on, Zhang Zhaohua seemed to be tossing up and down in a turbulent sea water, she looked up at this boxy sky, this place was not at all the door of salvation she sought, but the furnace that would pull her to destroy together.
How was she going to get out of this place?
Zhang Zhaohua listened to the sound behind the wall gradually quieter, knowing that this tryst was probably about to end, she stayed in the toilet and stood until her hands and feet were numb, and saw that the small corner door opened quickly, and then Ma walked in alone with a skirt - Zhang Zhaohua couldn't help but look at her, obviously the flush on her face had not dissipated, but her expression and walking posture did not mean to panic at all.
After waiting for another half a moment or so, Zhang Zhaohua walked out of the toilet. She went back to her house and said to Lu Shi that she would take a leave of absence in the afternoon, she had an uncomfortable stomach, and today was indeed the last day of her small day, according to the rules, the show girl could take a little rest for a day or two on the day of the red day, and she didn't have to go to class.
Zhang Zhaohua needs to think carefully about the path he has chosen, whether he wants to go down, and how to go forward. In this intricate power struggle between royal grandchildren, fathers and sons, uncles and nephews, how should I protect myself and my family.
