Chapter 153: The Hongmen Banquet is staged in the inner room
Kang Hai is a talented man, and his fame is greater than that of Yang Shen at that time, and the yamen of the imperial court will also give some face in general matters, but if the death row prisoner wants to change the sentence, he must nod from the Lord Banzai, at least the criminal department must come up with sufficient reasons. Kang Hai knew that the matter was urgent, and immediately went to visit Liu Jin's mansion.
Liu Jin and Kang Hai are fellow countrymen, Kang Hai is naturally second to none in his hometown, so Liu Jin admires and admires Kang Hai the most, he worships the eunuch who is in charge of the world, and the civil and military officials do not pay attention to it, but he still worships Kang Hai as always, and has asked people to invite Kang Hai to his home many times, but Kang Hai just didn't hear it.
According to Liu Jin's temper, such a person who openly despises himself would have been killed long ago, and even Prime Minister Li Dongyang would dare to use a knife, what is the great deal about a top talent. But he still worships Kang Hai like that, and he can't bear to do it even if he is angry.
On this day, Liu Jin was banqueting the ministers and hundreds of officials in the mansion, and the officials waiting for him to meet outside were crowded in the alley, and the ordinary ministers wanted to see Liu Jin for a few days, and they couldn't get in. When he heard that Kang Hai was coming, he didn't care about anything, so he ran out to greet him with his shoes, personally took Kang Hai's hand in, and made Kang Hai the chief.
The court officials present were stunned, in the eyes of the scholars and the six scholars, although Kang Hai was only eight buckets tall and had a flawless character, he was only a champion, and there was one in four years, how could he compare with these great members in terms of honor?
Kang Hai entertained for a while, and explained his intention to rescue Li Dongyang, Liu Jin didn't say a word, he wrote a note on the seat on the spot, and immediately asked Li Dongyang to be released.
Li Dongyang went to Kang Hai's house the next day to thank him for saving his life, but Kang Hai was closed, he knew that for the sake of friendship, he ruined his reputation and completely fell into the dung pit.
After that, he owed Liu Jin a favor, and he had to visit often, and he was false and wronged. Later, Liu Jin fell and was sentenced to death, and Kang Hai could not prove his innocence, so he was put into the list of eunuchs and returned to his hometown.
The problem is not here, but in the whole process from Kang Hai's dismissal to his return to his hometown, Li Dongyang did not say a word.
Li Dongyang, the former prisoner of the ranks, was reinstated as the prime minister, and became famous all over the world for resisting Liu Jin, but he broke off contact with his life-saving benefactor Kang Hai.
Kang Hai was not only angry and angry when he was dismissed, but also angry about the weakness of human affection, and since then he has been depressed, entertaining himself with gin every day and wandering in the fields.
The former colleagues knew the inside story and said that they wanted to help Kang Hai restore his innocence, but Kang Hai couldn't listen to it, and whoever mentioned it was in a hurry, and chased and beat people with the piano in his hand, and soon died of depression.
This incident reflects the strangeness of human nature.
It is said that the status of people is high, and the vision is also high, what he liked and worshipped in the past may really become a thing of the past, Liu Jin was already above 10,000 people under one person at that time, but he still worshiped the idols of the old days like the end of the year, and was willing to change everything for him. In a sense, Liu Jin's release of death row prisoner Li Dongyang is like raising tigers for him, which is equivalent to Kang Hai harming his benefactor Liu Jin.
As for Li Dongyang, he knew that Liu Jin would respond to Kang Hai's needs, so he asked Kang Hai to come forward to save him, but in fact, Li Dongyang also knew that Kang Hai would jump into the dung pit from now on. In order to save his life, Li Dongyang threw Kang Hai without blushing, which was tantamount to forcing Kang Hai to join the eunuch party. After Liu Jin's incident, Li Dongyang refused to endorse Kang Hai.
Besides, he thinks that his grandmother's character actually dares to be called a famous appearance, and she has also climbed to the position of the overlord of the literary world, which shows that the integrity of the Ming Dynasty scholars is a spot.
Counting it up, the scholars and doctors in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty were the most virtuous in all dynasties, and although the Southern Song Dynasty was not as good as the Northern Song Dynasty, it was much stronger than other dynasties.
Coincidentally, Wei Zhongxian also has the same thing, he was a butcher gambler when he was a child, and the most envious of him was a local family, when he was in charge of the world, he was also trampled under the feet of hundreds of civil and military officials, except for the emperor and the emperor Sun Chengzong, there is no one in the world who he can afford. But in his heart, the former noble family is still unattainable.
It just so happened that someone in that family was an official in the court, and Wei Zhongxian knew that there was a woman in his family, and when he reached the age of marriage, he personally went to the door to ask his nephew for marriage. If this matter is put on other nobles, not to mention that they can't ask for it, at least they don't dare to shirk it, not to mention that his nephew has already been made a marquis. This man did not dare to refuse to his face, so he had to reason that he had to write to his father for approval in this matter.
Wei Zhongxian knew that the rules of this wang family were big, so he went back and waited.
After receiving the letter, the official's father knew that the critical moment for the survival of the family had arrived, and if he refused, he might exterminate the clan, and promising to promise was tantamount to jumping into a dung pit. Faced with a dilemma, the old man had a whim and asked his son to report that he was critically ill.
The official immediately understood what his father meant, and immediately wrote a letter to ask for leave to go home to serve his father, Wei Zhongxian immediately approved, and sent someone to escort him home.
The fake drama was really done, the family gritted their teeth, and the old man simply lay on the bed and pretended to be seriously ill, waiting for the opportunity to change. Fortunately, soon Chongzhen ascended the throne, Wei Zhongxian fell, and the family escaped a catastrophe.
Two similar things, each ending in tragicomedy, but what is the same is the incomprehensible nostalgia of Liu Jin and Wei Zhongxian. Could it be that childhood memories really dominate a person's life?
Besides, I retracted my thoughts, and in a blink of an eye, I saw a picture of a lady, which was actually Tang Bohu's painting of Gongbi, at this time Tang Bohu was just painting a picture of a lady, and he had not yet wandered to the point of painting the Spring Palace.
At this time, the two maids walked up with the golden lotus and came up with the tea tray, and when they saw it, their faces were as red as red paper, and the hands holding the tea tray were a little trembling.
Besides, I was even more surprised when I saw it: What are you doing here, I'm neither a man-eating tiger nor a pervert, as for this?
"Doctor Xu is here? ”
A side door curtain rolled up, and four ladies came out, ranging from their thirties to eighteen.
Besides, knowing that this was the wife and concubine of the prefect, he hurriedly stood up, bowed down and said, "I've seen all the ladies." ”
"You're welcome, let alone polite, we're in trouble with you. The second lady said with a smile.
"This kid is really handsome, how can he become a miracle doctor at such a young age?" The third lady stepped forward and pretended to look, taking the opportunity to touch his head and rub the oil.
Yahuan and the housekeeper's wife laughed secretly, and they all quickly withdrew, the province was an eyesore here.
"Oh, why are you standing up, sit down. The twenty-five-year-old fourth lady stepped forward and pulled him to sit down, grabbed his wrist, and let go for a long time.
Only the fifth lady, who was just eighteen years old, was still a little reserved, holding her cherry mouth in her hand, and just laughing stupidly.
Besides, my heart is empty: is this looking for me to see a doctor, or is it going to dispose of me as a little fresh meat.
In desperation, he had no choice but to sit down, gather his mind, and check the pulse of the four ladies, and these ladies also put away their laughter when they checked the pulse, so as not to affect his diagnosis.
After diagnosing the pulse, I understood in my heart that these ladies did have problems, and the basic problem was all kinds of gynecological diseases caused by dissatisfaction, as for what flower willow disease, venereal disease or something, it had not appeared in the Jiajing period, so condoms were not invented at that time.
This kind of disease is not common in ordinary people's homes, because they work hard for a living, they have to cook, weave, wash clothes, etc., and they are tired and half dead at the end of the day, so how can they think about anything else.
Only this rich and noble family, full of lust and lust, and polygamy, the lord is not allowed to occasionally recruit a prostitute or something, but the living conditions of these ladies have another embarrassment, and their desires are difficult to satisfy.
Some people say that a teapot should be equipped with several teacups, which is not unreasonable, but it depends on how you use it, if you pour it every day, let alone a few teacups, it is a teacup, and this teapot is also in danger of falling off.
Human essence is a renewable resource, and the regeneration rate is very fast, but if it is overexploited and excavated, it will also be depleted. Pu Songling has a famous saying: When you are killed, people have desires for ghosts. It is indeed a wise saying.
Besides, a few prescriptions were prescribed, mainly to treat those gynecological diseases, which of course treated the symptoms but not the root cause, but there was no way, he couldn't give a prescription for opening an electric vibrating egg, although the original version of the vibrator was really Chinese, Ximen Qing often used it, and it was also very popular during the Jiajing period, and he didn't dare to open this, he had to be removed from Xiucai's headscarf.
As soon as she finished prescribing the prescription, the second lady smiled and said, "Little doctor, I have to trouble you, our eldest sister is a little sick, lying in the bedroom, you have to go to the bedroom to check the pulse." ”
Besides, when I heard it, my face turned green, and the danger factor was too high to enter a pleasant bedroom. But he couldn't refuse, so he reluctantly nodded and agreed.
Passing through the hall, besides, with the four ladies to the main room of the inner house, the original wife lived here, and there were more than a dozen maids and daughters serving outside the room, which seemed to be bedridden.
Besides, I wondered in my heart: If I am seriously ill, the prefect should tell myself.
When I went inside, sure enough, the bed was blocked, the curtains were low, the light in the room was very dim, and there were two butter candles lit in the corner. Besides, I didn't smell the medicinal fragrance that should be in the patient's room, but there was a smell of sandalwood. He chuckled in his heart, knowing that there must be something strange about this.
"Sister, the miracle doctor is here. The second lady said when she arrived at the bed.
"Hmm. With the voice, a fat snow-white wrist stretched out from inside, with a gold bracelet on it.
The third lady took a low stool, put it in front of the bed, and said with a smile: "Little miracle doctor, please." ”
Besides, if you are falling into the clouds and mist for five miles, you can only step forward and sit down at this time and carefully diagnose the pulse.
The eldest lady's illness is similar to that of several aunts, but her heart is very hot, it is estimated that she is working hard inside and outside and jealousy of several aunts, which is the most common problem in the official eunuchs' homes.
"Little Divine Doctor, what's wrong with me?" asked the lady inside.
Besides, he stood up and bowed and said: "Madame has no major problems, but her heart is too hot, recuperate and recuperate, and your heart will be better if you are calm, and this disease is not suitable for bed recuperation, but you should go out and walk around more." As the saying goes: a hundred diseases are gone. In addition, the diet should also be light, and large meat should be avoided for the time being. ”
"Well, the little god heals the pulse, I have a boil here, you can help me take a look. ”
As she spoke, the bed curtain was lifted, and she had no choice but to stick her head out, but the lady lifted the quilt, but she was naked, and her eyes were dizzy, and she almost turned her back on air.
