Chapter Twenty-Eight: Sun Deya Throws Guo Mansion at Night

The Yuan Dynasty can be described as one of the saddest dynasties in Chinese history, because God can really drop pies, but the Yuan people who picked up this pie felt very hot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At that time, the Yuan people had just evolved from a slave society, and they only had survival in their eyes, and they advocated violence like some chengguan in the 21st century.

Winter is coming, facing hunger and cold, the Yuan people plan to run to the Central Plains to loot and retreat as in previous years, who knows that they were surprised to find that the Song people are actually unable to resist, they invaded the north and south of the river at the speed of destruction and drying, and they conquered the Central Plains Han people with fast horses and scimitars to establish the Great Yuan Dynasty.

But reality tells us that the Yuan people who can fight the world on the horse may not necessarily rule the world after getting off the horse!

The Yuan people were uninhibited, living in pursuit of water and grass, and did not have a strong sense of the countryside, but the Central Plains they conquered was a large agricultural country, so the grassland culture and farming culture collided fiercely at this moment.

It is impossible to let these Yuan people who are galloping on the grassland get off their horses and plant crops? Who has ever seen the Yuan people planting grass while grazing their cattle? It is even more impossible! The palace of the Han people is splendid, the food of the Han people is exquisite and delicious, and the girls of the Han people have fine skin and tender meat...... In short, no one is a fool who would do the stupid thing of losing a watermelon and picking up sesame seeds.

In the eyes of the scholars of the Central Plains, the Yuan people themselves are barbarians, that is, "Yi Di has a king, it is not as good as the death of Zhuxia!". And the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty also didn't have a good impression of the Central Plains scholars, these scholars were too unclear about practice, and they didn't figure out who was the boss and who was a wage earner now, since they didn't work hard, they were waiting to be fired.

Without the assistance of the scholars of the Central Plains, the Yuan people's governance of the country was naturally a mess. In the end, the Yuan people simply adopted the Taoist Lao Tzu's "rule by doing nothing" to rule the Han people - this is the idea put forward by your Han ancestors, you can't oppose it, right?

It's a pity that it is obvious that the Yuan people do not have a deep cultural heritage, and there is a big difference between the understanding of inaction and the understanding of inaction and the understanding of inaction. So there was an absurd scene, the rich Yuan people sat comfortably on top of the temple, watching the Han people who were so poor that they couldn't even wear pants to work hard.

I don't know if Hu Lu has no luck for a hundred years, and the Yuan Dynasty has been suffering from natural disasters and man-made disasters for less than a hundred years from the establishment of power to its demise.

Emperor Yuan indulged in extravagance, did not cultivate morality, the court was corrupt and incompetent, and traitorous ministers were in power. The common people lived a miserable life, eating less than pigs, working more than oxen, sleeping later than dogs, and waking up earlier than chickens. However, the imperial court did not reduce taxes regardless of the suffering of the people, but instead forcibly levied and extorted them, and officials in various places even looted and exploited them layer by layer...... Finally, it provoked the anger of the heavens and the resentment of the people, the people were not happy, the thieves were swarming, the war was everywhere, and the rebellion continued......

As early as the second year of Taiding, Zhao Chouwu and Guo Bodhisattva in Xizhou, Henan Province launched an uprising and put forward the slogan of "Maitreya Buddha should have the world", which opened the prelude to the peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

In the third year of the Yuan Dynasty, there was an uprising of Zhu Guangqing and Nie Xiuqing in Guangdong, saying that "Dingguang Buddha was born".

In the same year, there was an uprising in Henan Banghu, Banghu burned incense to gather people, and the rebels raised the "Maitreya small flag".

In the fourth year of the Yuan Dynasty, Monk Peng and Zhou Ziwang revolted in Yuanzhou, and the uprising peasants amounted to more than 5,000 people, and the vests were all written with the word "Buddha".

By the beginning of the period, small-scale uprisings and riots had spread throughout the country, and there were more than 300 uprisings in the Jingnan area alone. For a while, everyone rushed to the uprising, and you sang and I appeared, and the slogans of the uprising continued to soar into the sky.

Especially in the fourth year of Emperor Yuan Shun, there was a famine in the Haosi area, and then there was a plague. There are more and more voices against tyranny.

The rulers of the Yuan Dynasty could not be calm. They regretted that they had cut down the grass and not eradicated the roots, and the spring breeze blew and reborn, so that the other traitors not only did not lose their fighting spirit, but became more and more rampant. They decided to crack down on this evil force, and while they sent officers and soldiers to suppress the bandits, they also posted a list to inform the people: Anyone who reports a traitor will be rewarded with a reward of money and silver, and he will be promoted to a knighthood......

Where there are people, there must be Han people, and where there are Han people, there will be traitors.

On this day, the servants of the Guo Mansion went to the street on Tuesday to shop. This Tuesday was originally a steward, and one day he drank too much and molested the maid next to Da Zhang's family and was known by Da Zhang's family, thinking that he was an old man in the house, and he was only fined ten rods and removed from his position as a steward. In the past, Tuesday used his power to offend people, but now everyone still beats the water dogs, so all thankless tasks such as running errands and carrying them fall on him.

From being a steward to running errands, the gap in Tuesday's heart can be imagined. He scolded and went out of the house, and did not go to do the errand in hand first, but wanted to find a kiln sister to vent his anger. Passing by the yamen, he saw the wanted list posted by the official, he was illiterate, but there was a list of traitors next to him, and he happened to hear it.

“…… The daughter of a traitor, Liu Xiuying, a native of Suzhou...... If one of the above traitors is caught, he will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver, and those who provide clues will be rewarded with ten taels of silver......"

On Tuesday, his heart constricted violently, he knew that his master had a righteous daughter under his knees, and the original name was Liu Xiuying, and last year he changed his surname Liu to Ma for some reason, is this Ma Xiuying the other Liu Xiuying? He thought about the fierce men who occasionally appeared in the Guo Mansion, and the old man Liu who did not appear again after staying in the Guo Mansion for several months, and vaguely guessed in his heart that his master might have a connection with the traitor. Since the people of Guo Mansion humiliated him so much, why did he miss the old love again, and more importantly, if he went to report it, how much reward could he get, and would it be enough to marry a little lady and return to his hometown?

Once the demons emerge, they are like wild grasses that take root and sprout wildly. On Tuesday, after several days of ideological struggle, evil thoughts finally triumphed over his conscience, and he quietly slipped into the county government gate on a dark and windy night.

There are several reasons why he chose to report his lord Guo Zixing at night on Tuesday: first, he has a weak heart, he is afraid, and he does not dare to do this kind of traitor seeking glory under the blue sky and white sun; second, there are many people during the day, and if other servants of the Guo Mansion see him walk into the gate of the county government and go back to tell Guo Zixing, let alone the reward at that time, it will be a problem whether his life can be saved; third, there are too many people who receive monthly salaries today, and the sun has already set when he receives his monthly salary on Tuesday. He knew that after reporting Guo Zixing, no matter whether Guo Zixing harbored the remnants of the traitor, he would not be able to continue to stay in Guo's mansion.

But Tuesday made a fatal mistake. Very early on, the ancients put forward the concept of "working at sunrise and resting at sunset", and people have been following this life and rest time. Everyone is busy, busy having children. Men who don't have money go home to find their wives, and rich men go out to bubble up beautiful women. In short, when the wonderful moment of the night comes, no matter the corrupt officials, Qing officials, Tartar officials, or Han officials, they will not stay in the yamen to work overtime. So Tuesday did not meet the county magistrate as smoothly as he expected, and he only saw Sun Deya, a servant on duty that night.

Sun Deya was originally a splash in Dingyuan, fighting, stealing, and doing all kinds of evil, which provoked everyone in Dingyuan to shout and beat, and in desperation, he joined the court and became a little dog.

Sun Deya became a servant, and the common people didn't dare to worry about him anymore. But he still doesn't change his hooligan atmosphere when he becomes a servant, he doesn't stammer when he sees his boss, he doesn't know how to be polite when he sees his colleagues, and he waves his fists when he says something inappropriate.

Seeing that other officials had the opportunity to go to the people's homes to take advantage of oil and water, this guy could only guard the empty yamen like a prison cell, and occasionally had to be responsible for exterminating cockroaches and catching mice, so he had already held back his anger. But if you leave the yamen, you are afraid of being scolded by the people, and you stay in the yamen and you are so confused, how can life be a miserable word?

At this moment, Sun Deya leaned against the gate, holding a burning stick, with tears in his eyes, looking up at the bright moon: Thinking of Uncle Sun back then, I was heroic and heroic, talking and laughing, which made people disappear. Nowadays, cockroaches laugh at me, and I have a good hair early. Life is like a dream, or is it a big nightmare......

"Grandpa, the villain has something to ask to see the county master, please pass it on. ”

The passionate emotion was interrupted, Sun Deya was very unhappy, but he didn't dare to offend anyone casually. Because of the darkness in the middle of the night, eight out of ten people who ask to see the county lord are "big customers" who come to send silver, send women, and ask for errands. Even though he was not afraid of the comers, he did not dare to block the county master's wealth and sexual blessings. However, he looked at the visitor for a long time and found that this person was empty-handed, and there was no woman behind him, so he couldn't help but ask, "Who is it and what is the matter?"

"The villain's name is Tuesday, and there is news of a traitor ready to report to the county master. Tuesday knew that Sun Deya was just a down-and-out watchdog, and when he saw that he was holding a burning stick and his face was not good, he immediately said his intentions honestly.

"Do you have any news of a traitor?" Sun Deya was taken aback, and thought about it, if the news of this traitor was true, wouldn't it be a great achievement for him to learn the details first and then go to the county magistrate, and let Tuesday tell the details of the matter immediately.

On Tuesday, he said that he would not speak until he saw the county magistrate.

Sun Deya sneered, bluffing and deceiving, "If you don't tell it, how can I know if the news is true? If you falsely report the news and take credit, you will implicate me." Hmph, you go out of the yamen and ask around outside, my Uncle Sun is not easy to deceive!"

Tuesday saw the other party's teeth turn white in the moonlight, his fists were clenched and gurgling, and his legs were weak in fright, and he fell to the ground, "Grandpa, the villain will say it, this will say it......"

The more Sun Deya listened, the more shocked he became, the rich man Guo in Dingyuan City actually had a connection with the traitor! This person not only contained the remnants of the traitor wanted by the imperial court, but also colluded with many gangsters, well, he was even more arrogant than Uncle Sun and I back then. It's just that when the news is reported, the imperial court will definitely send people to arrest the traitors, and the first to bear the brunt will be the officials in the yamen, but can a dozen or so officials on their own side beat those traitors? Maybe the credit will not be received at that time, and the small life will be confessed.

Sun Deya's face turned red and white, and he had already thought a lot about this meeting. He thought that if the news was true, he could get the above commendation, he thought that the county magistrate would definitely send him to arrest the traitor if he didn't like him, and he thought that he was killed by the traitor's knife...... He suddenly had a cold war, if he didn't go, he would be killed by the county master, and if he went, he would be hacked to death by a traitor, why did life always give him contradictory choices again and again?

Looking at the chattering Tuesday, Sun Deya hated in his heart, if it weren't for the appearance of this guy, how could he be so entangled, what kind of good news is this, it is clearly Uncle Sun's life talisman. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the evil was born to the side of his guts: Grandpa, I didn't want to be angry with the yamen for a long time, so I simply raised the head of this guy to join Guo Zixing, thinking that Guo Zixing was a bold and righteous person, and he would definitely not treat me badly when he saw such a gift.

With a change of mind, Sun Deya approached Tuesday with a cruel smile, and took advantage of his unpreparedness to knock down with a stick, directly hitting Tuesday's head and flowering. Seeing that there was no one left and right, Sun Deya tore off a piece of his clothes, cut off Tuesday's head and wrapped it, and rushed out of the yamen overnight to join Guo's mansion.
