Chapter 265: Wang Zhizheng is cooking wine and discussing the current situation

Wang Zhizheng picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks and put it in his mouth and then washed it down with tea: "Wang Zhizheng and Jiang Nai chased Wei Zhongxian, chasing after them day and night, and finally chased Wei Zhongxian in Hejian Mansion!" Seeing that thousands of Jinyi guards came, Wei Zhongxian knew that he couldn't fight, so he gave up resistance. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The boatman asked puzzledly: "Since Wei Zhongxian wants to rebel, it is impossible for him to bring only more than 500 people!" ”

Zhou Cheng interjected and said, "Good question! So Wei Zhongxian didn't plan to rebel, he wanted to escort the property with five hundred people! As a result, because there were too many properties, he sent more than 500 people to make a huge noise, which angered the emperor and thought that he was going to rebel! ”

The boatman patted his leg and said, "Why are you so careless!" ”

Wang Zhizheng continued: "Then Wei Zhongxian threw himself at Wang Taifu and Jiang Commander!" At this time, Wei Zhongxian knew that it was impossible to escape death, so he simply left a whole corpse to die, and Wang Taifu once worshipped Wei Zhongxian as his godgrandfather, so Wang Zhizheng invited Wei Zhongxian to drink the last wine in a nearby restaurant, and drank until the third watch in the middle of the night, Wei Zhongxian tied a hemp rope to the beam and committed suicide! ”

The boatman sighed again and again: "In this way, it is a bit unjust to die at the age of nine thousand!" ”

Wang Zhizheng laughed and said: "Speaking of which, Wei Zhongxian is half a good person and half a bad person, if anyone opposes him, he will put people to death, and if anyone follows him, he is also very interesting!" ”

The boatman shook his head and said, "I think that's right!" Think about what kind of person is nine thousand years old, one year old is long live, of course he will be majestic again, whoever opposes him will of course ......" The boatman said, making a gesture with his hand to kill a chicken!

Wang Zhizheng laughed and said, "It's really interesting to gossip with an old guy like you!" I'm tired of talking about ancient things with their scholars all day long! ”

As he spoke, he raised the wine cup and saluted the boatman, who took the wine cup and drank it all: "Tsk, it's delicious!" ”

The boatman suddenly pointed at Wang Zhizheng and said puzzledly: "You said that you are from the capital, rich businessman, how did you come from the capital, the news is so well-informed, you know so much inside!" I've also traveled to the capital before, so why don't you know so much! Official, what are you from! ”

Wang Zhizheng took a sip of tea: "What else can it be, it is a rich businessman from the capital, who went to Suzhou to buy some silk!" I have a few relatives in my family who are officials, so I am better informed. ”

Wang Zhizheng dealt with the snake, and the boatman took a sip of wine and said, "No wonder! ”

Wang Zhizheng suddenly remembered the beautiful and lovely daughter of the boatman and asked, "The boatman, do you really plan to send your daughter to the landlord's house as a concubine?" ”

The boatman nodded: "Or else?" Let me tell you that our family is not good, if we let Xiaofu follow the poor boy, won't she still be like his father in the future, so I will simply send her to the rich family to be a concubine! I've also ended up in a quiet place! ”

Wang Zhizheng knew that such a young beauty would soon be sent to the house of a forty or fifty-year-old pot-bellied foreigner to be a concubine, so he felt that it was really a waste of resources.

He waved his hand and said, "With all due respect, your daughter is naturally beautiful, and there is no need to be a concubine in the round house for others." ”

The boatman looked up at Wang Zhizheng and said with a smile: "I said, sir, you are quite nosy, my daughter wants her to follow whoever he wants, he has to follow whom!" ”

Wang Zhizheng waved his hand and said, "It's a pity! ”

The boatman smiled: "It's a pity for you to say, if you like you to take it away as a concubine!" ”

When Wang Zhizheng heard this, he said with a smile: "Let me tell you, I didn't have this idea, but as soon as I heard your old guy say that he wanted to send her to a certain foreign house to be a house-filling girl, I felt that it was a pity, it was really better to follow me!" ”

The boatman waved his hand and said: "Don't laugh at the old man, when you enter Jinling, who knows where you will go in the future, if I send my daughter to you, I am afraid that I will not know where I will run with you in the future!" ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled: "This is also true!" ”

He just mentioned it, and after thinking about it, he already had a wife and three concubines, and it was indeed a little too much to say about taking concubines, so he didn't mention it anymore.

The boatman continued: "Don't interrupt, after talking about Wei Zhongxian just now, you can tell me, who can be the emperor's opponent in the emperor's world now!" ”

Wang Zhizheng squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "There are two people, one is Wang Jiayin, the thief leader in northern Shaanxi, and the other is the Tartar Emperor Taiji outside the Guan, both of these people are ambitious, not to be underestimated!" ”

The boatman took a bite of beef and asked: "I heard that Wang Jiayin led tens of thousands of people to attack the city in northern Shaanxi, and he killed wherever he went, and there were no chickens and dogs left in the city!" ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded: "Yes, what you said is good, Wang Jiayin claims to have 20,000 people, capture the city, anyone who does not follow him, all of them will be arrested, cut off their heads, and those who follow will be taken away, just like a snowball, the bigger and bigger, the court will send troops to encircle and suppress, they will be reduced to zero, and when the official army withdraws, they will continue to attack the city and kill people!" ”

The boatman was dumbfounded: "Then there is no way?" ”

Wang Zhizheng laughed and said: "This can't be blamed on others, now there is a big drought in northern Shaanxi every year, there is no harvest, the people are starving to death, rebellion is also death, rebellion can live a few more days, eat a few more days to eat, who do you say will not rebel?!" ”

The boatman asked puzzledly, "Is the famine in northern Shaanxi so serious?" ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Yes, hundreds of miles in northern Shaanxi starved to death, there are few people left, the grass is eaten and the bark is eaten, the dead are eaten after the bark is eaten, the dead are eaten after they are eaten, the dead are eaten after they are eaten, and finally they kill each other and eat each other!" ”

The boatman got goosebumps when he heard this: "Official, what you said is true, this is really terrible, fortunately we still have two mouthfuls to eat in Jiangnan!" ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "This is nothing, the most important thing is that the corpses that starved to death were all eaten one by one, and the bones were all dismantled and eaten!" ”

The boatman sighed and said, "It's so miserable, why doesn't the emperor provide disaster relief!" ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled coldly: "Disaster relief? There are no hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the treasury, so what can be used for disaster relief? The emperor wants to provide relief, but the drought in the whole country is serious, where can I receive food?! In the past, when Wei Zhongxian was here, he still collected centigold in the southeast Jiangdong region, but now, hehehe, the centigold can't be collected, because now the high-ranking officials of the imperial court are all from the southeast, who wants to be exploited? ”

The boatman sighed and said, "In this way, Daming Sheji looks too peaceful, but it is actually dangerous!" ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "You can't worry about the sky!" If the world is not chaotic, you will continue to eat meat and drink wine, the world is chaotic, and you are not the only one who dies, you are afraid of a bird! ”

The boatman nodded and smiled: "Official, that's right!" Come on, come on, keep drinking! ”

As he spoke, the boatman picked up the wine cup and touched a glass with Wang Zhizheng, and then drank it all, only feeling a little drunk.

Wang Zhizheng was very sober, he stared at the mountains on the riverbank, and muttered to himself while smoking a cigarette pot: "Carrying taxes and resisting donations, hehehe, when the thief army comes from northern Shaanxi, you dignitaries are waiting to be killed!" ”

After that, he took a sip of wine from the wine cup, and then knocked the smoke pot, at this time, the little girl Xiaofu Yingying came and added a pot of tobacco to Wang Zhizheng again.
