Chapter 16: Dead Dogs
"We drink liquor, less tillers (niรจ) more rice, two nights of food, but sweet, the townsman, the county officials, do you want to taste it?"
The fifth tyrant said, and asked people to bring a pot of liquor, which did have the taste of alcohol, but it was more sweet and sour after the grain was slightly fermented. It can be roughly understood as the mash and sweet liquor of later generations, but the raw materials are millet and millet, and the color looks yellowish.
So the question is, is sweet white wine wine?
The ancients paid the most attention to the name, and different things must be given different names, and the scriptures said: "If you make wine, you will only make a tiller." Lili and liquor have always been juxtaposed, and it is not the koji that is strictly controlled by the imperial court that is used for fermentation, but the wheat tiller, that is, malt, which cannot be controlled at all. In addition, the alcohol content of the liquor is very low, and you will not get drunk if you eat a whole jar, but only get drunk.
The new dynasty followed the example of Zhou Gong's "Wine Decree" to prohibit group drinking, mainly to save food, and the mash in the liquor is more than liquid, and after sucking the juice with wheat straw, the rest is no problem to eat as food, which is not too wasteful.
Therefore, if you are accused of drinking in groups, you can indeed turn your head and shout after stealing the beams and changing the pillars: "What you want to arrest is the person who drinks the wine, what does it have to do with my drinking?" โ
"I've tasted it, it's alcohol! It's not a liquor by no means! โ
The first willow was axed, paranoid pointed to the watermark and broken pottery on the ground as evidence, dipped it again and put it in his mouth and licked it, just saying: "If you don't believe in literature, try it!" โ
This is indeed the wine jar that Limin accidentally broke in a hurry, and before he had time to clean it up, the fifth grid and the others were a little nervous. However, the fifth tyrant didn't say a word, walked straight over, and went straight to the dog next to him who was still licking the blood stains on the ground.
"Dead dog!"
The innocent earth dog was kicked a second time today, and with a bewildered expression, he barked and ran away.
The fifth tyrant also picked up a stone and threw it violently, pointing at it and scolding: "Someone slipped and accidentally broke the jar containing the broth, you dead dog didn't eat enough, you actually ran to lick it for a long time, and sprinkled dog urine all over the ground!" Lose face! โ
This refers to the dog scolding the willow!
The first willow's face was blue, and at the end, the fifth bully turned his head and smiled at him: "However, it's also a shame that the countryman can taste the taste of wine from the dog's urine, which is not bad!" โ
Fifth Lun don't open his face and hold back a smile, are you more yin and yang than the old man?
The first willow he was anxious: "You! Literary Peng, this old man insulted the court officials. โ
The fifth tyrant waved his hand and said: "Countryman, I can't afford this crime, although I am a countryman who likes to say vulgar words, but I am obviously a dog, when did I scold you?" โ
"First Ba, if you didn't drink, why did you blush?"
"The sun is shining!"
The fifth tyrant can fight and talk, and the first willow is stupid, trembling all over, and wants to ask Jing Dan for help. He thought that he was blaming the traitor as a husband, and his duty was not a brotherly dispute, and the evidence was conclusive, so the officials should support it.
Unexpectedly, Jing Dan, who has always been humble and polite, looked at the first willow like a fool, and there was a little impatience in his eyes.
It's no wonder that every year, Linqu Township is often at the bottom of the county, and it turned out to be such a husband who didn't know the general situation.
I made a special trip to this poor countryside on the orders of Jun Yin, in order to catch people and drink in the autumn community? Have you ever seen a crowing rooster run to catch a mouse?
"Countryman."
Jing Dan raised his hand to stop the first willow and didn't embarrass him any longer: "I didn't know that today was the day of the Zhudi Autumn Society in Linqu Township, so I called you to lead the way." โ
"Now that I've reached the fifth mile, I've found the person I'm looking for......"
Jing Dan was silent when he saw it, only letting his grandfather give him a look at the fifth Lun with all his might, and said with a smile: "Then there is nothing to do with you here, the first husband, it is better to go back to your house and preside over the sacrifice of the Autumn Society!" โ
โฆโฆ
The first willow encountered the moment of social death, and went back with a dead face.
And after a while, in the middle hall of the Fifth Clan's Dock Courtyard, only the Fifth Lun and Jing Dan were left.
"Literature is guilty, Lun is guilty."
"What's the crime?"
"What we drank when we were waiting for the Autumn Society was indeed wine."
Fang Cai's matter was obviously over, but Wu Lun didn't know which tendon was wrong, and took the initiative to admit the matter of the Qiu Society's drinking, after he preemptively confessed the crime, he looked up at Jing Dan and said: "Presumably, Literary Peng has already noticed it." โ
Jing Dan smiled but did not speak.
Indeed, as early as when Jing Dan had just entered the fifth mile, he smelled a faint smell of wine from the fifth Lun when he spoke.
Those who drink always think that they are well covered, but in fact, they are just entering the abalone, and they don't know its smell after smelling it for a long time, but the people next to them know it when they smell it.
This Jing Dan not only has a very sharp nose, but also a smart mind, and does not expose it after insight, but deliberately slows down, asking questions and cooperating with Wu Lun to delay time.
After all, there is such a thing as a group drinking crime, everyone knows that the emperor of the new room has committed a retro illness again, who is really a fool, he doesn't care very much, but it is embarrassing if he breaks it in person.
Fifth Lun realized this at the time, and the two smart people tacitly understood it, but they were shouted out by the idiot of First Liu.
Since it was broken, the fifth Lun simply admitted: "The crime of this matter lies with me alone, and it has nothing to do with the eldest father and the people. โ
Jing Dan stroked his short beard and said: "There is a saying in "Wine Message", our people are in turmoil and lose morality, and they are not only wine; The smaller the big state, the more innocent it is. Brewing wine wastes food, and group drinking is easy to breed accidents, so the Son of Heaven issued an edict to curb it. โ
"But Zhou Gong also said that if you drink only worship, you will not get drunk. The drinking of the Autumn Society is mainly used to worship the gods and ancestors, and it is harmless not to drink indiscriminately. This time, just forget about your first offense, and be cautious in the future. โ
I don't know if he said to be cautious and don't drink, or drink cautiously so as not to be broken.
Turning a blind eye to the lower and turning a blind eye to the upper is the attitude of the county, and in the past ten years, they have become accustomed to the emperor Wang Mang's unbelievable new policy. It's like the "different ways for men and women" just issued, just think about it, how can it be? In Jing Dan's view, this is just following the words in the ancient book and following the map.
However, Jing Dan was quite happy to see that Wu Lun was not clever, so he explained the reason why he came here.
"Let's get down to business. I came today, in fact, I inherited the order of the county governor Yin Zhangjun. โ
"Some time ago, Zhang Jun summoned Changping County Zai Xianyu to meet and asked him about you carefully."
Wu Lun said with a smile: "A mere child, young and knowledgeable, not a well-known person in the cave, since he was born, his deeds can be counted in a slap, where is it worthy of the county monarch to know?" โ
"Unknown?"
Jing Dan shook his head and said: "Boyu is too humble, you are only weak in the crown, but you let the pear first, and then let the school, but also in order to prevent the clan brothers from being in danger of accepting filial piety, and after the incident, you will leave your clothes, and you will not be greedy for the reward of the silk coin." This reputation has spread all over Changping County, up to the county government, and now even people from other counties know your name, and even spread the proverb, 'two let one quit the fifth son'. โ
"After hearing about your deeds, the county gentleman said with emotion, such a young talent is not famous in the county government, it is really a dereliction of duty for politicians!"
Jing Dan took out the few words of the expulsion book in his arms: "So he sent me here to dispel you as the 'master of the history of the room' in the county!" โ
โฆโฆ
Fifth Lun and Jing Dan chatted for a long time in the middle hall of the dock courtyard before coming out, Jing Dan walked in front with his hands in his hands, frowning and not saying a word, while Fifth Lun saw him off in the back.
When passing by the ancestral hall again, Jing Dan stopped, pointed to the conspicuous platform behind the house and asked: "I have never seen a house behind the community to repair the platform, Boyu, why is this built?" โ
Of course, it's to let the villagers watch social dramas in the future!
In the fifth Lun's previous life, as long as a person of his age didn't doze off in class, who could forget Brother Xun'er's "Social Opera" and the broad beans stolen in the field!
As early as the pre-Han Dynasty, folk operas and haiyu were already very popular, often performing acrobatics or telling stories at the banquets of nobles, relying on funny to make people laugh. When you have spare money and food in the future, you can invite them to come, and Wu Lun will make up some things for Hai You to play, such as Tian Heng's five hundred heroes. The heroic epic of the common ancestor can also unite the Linqu Township.
But of course, Wu Lun couldn't tell the truth, but said: "I want people to perform the story of filial piety on stage in the future, so that the illiterate people can also understand the way of filial piety and experience the meaning of the sages." โ
Although the twenty-four filial piety has not yet taken shape in these years, many stories have appeared, what Yu Shunxiao touched the sky, Tan Zi Lu Milk Feng Qin, Zi Lu for the relatives of the rice, Zeng Shen finger heartache, Min lost the single clothes to the mother. Fifth Lun is not lying, these stories are about to come to power, and filial piety is an unchanging ethics for two thousand years.
Jing Dan was stunned, bowed his head slightly, the scriptures are difficult to understand, the threshold is high, but the performance of Baiju Haiyou is a lower riba person, which is easier to popularize, this idea is wonderful.
I also heard the fifth Lun say that when there is no festival day, there can also be a master on the stage to give a lecture, and the wooden pier at the bottom is for the children in the middle school to be a few cases, learn to read and count, and the rations of the bundle and the master are provided by Yicang, Jing Dan is even more stunned, looking back at the fifth Lun.
"You don't want to study too much, but you want to run a school in Lizhong?"
"Yes, the sage said that there is no class in teaching, and it is better to teach in one mile than to learn to be one."
From the time of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty in the previous dynasty, Wen Weng of Shu County promoted official learning, and now all counties have primary schools, but education is only popularized in the county. If it is not a Chinese family, there is no financial resources to go to it, and the children of the poor cannot afford to be shackled, and secondly, they are too far away, and they are basically illiterate.
Now the fifth Lun wants to move Mengxue to the middle school, which is indeed unprecedented.
Jing Dan looked at the fifth Lun again, this young man, still greatly exceeded his expectations, and only sighed for a long time: "Fifth Boyu, I understand your ambition, and I will be truthful to the junjun." โ
Fifth Lun sent Jing Dan to the inner gate, and after he got into the car, he waved his hand and said: "Today is worth the trip, if Boyu has leisure, you can come to the county town to find me, my home is in the east of the city." โ
The fifth Lun long bowed: "I will definitely go to visit Wenxue Peng another day, and apologize to the county monarch." โ
After Jing Dan's car walked away, the fifth tyrant came over with a full question: "Lun'er, the county Yin sent a literary peng to find you, what is the matter?" โ
"What else can ...... do?"
Wu Lun smiled: "Da Yin wants to get rid of me as the master of the history of the room. โ
"This ...... That's a good thing! The fifth tyrant immediately smiled.
For example, when Emperor Yuan of the Western Han Dynasty, Kuang Heng, who was known as "more than intelligent and extremely learned", was dismissed by Shi Gao, the general of the Great Sima Che Cavalry, as the history of Cao Shi.
The county magistrate can also appoint Peng Shi on his own, and he doesn't even need to greet the imperial court. When a county governor is newly appointed, he will often get rid of the children of the big names in the county or local celebrities, and win over local forces to help.
Now that the fifth Lun has resigned from two concessions, his reputation has become increasingly famous, and he has become a little celebrity, which has attracted the attention of Zhang Junyin.
As for the history of the main secretary's room, it can be understood as a secretary...... Member.
Compared with the temporary workers of the township who did not receive wages before, the main record is a formal county official with a rank of 100 stones, and is located under the main secretary's office. Responsible for recording documents and urging the supervisor to meet with the county guard. To put it bluntly, it is the little secretary next to the mayor.
The fifth tyrant is very happy, it is a good thing that the fifth Lun went to the side of the county Yin, if he is appreciated, he can even move to Cao Peng in a few years! The future is limitless. It's a shame to say that in the past two hundred years, the relationship between the Fifth Clan has only stayed in the county and township, and there has never been a county official with a copper seal and yellow ribbon!
As for the future that the fifth Lun said may be "the world in chaos", the fifth tyrant only believes half, this new dynasty has only been established for ten years, and it will not collapse suddenly, and the clansmen must gather training to guard against chaos, but being an official is always better than a white body.
He asked excitedly, "Then when are you going to work?" โ
"Going? No need to go. โ
"Father, it's the same as before......"
Fifth Lun slowly retreated: "This time I rejected it!" โ
The fifth tyrant was stunned for a moment, and then scolded.
"Where's the tongs? Where's the old man's tongs!? โ

PS: I made a PY transaction with Lao Wang next door.
"Dreaming Back to Daming Spring": Traveling to the Ming Dynasty, the imperial examination is a black household, and there is no teacher if you want to study. Fortunately, next door is the Longchang Station where Wang Yangming was exiled, but you have to wait a few years, so let's grab a teacher and go home to make do with it.
The style is still the same old king, more than one million words have been fat, hurry up and kill.
