Chapter 550: Sacrificing to the River

After the case was solved, Chun'an Zhixian County immediately dredged the waterway on the river and resumed water traffic. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Before boarding the ship, Chun'an Zhixian specially expressed his gratitude to Zhu Ping'an for helping to solve the case.

Of course, in order not to delay everyone moving forward in time, Chun'an Zhixian simply thanked him, but Zhu Ping'an seemed to hear thunder, just like Cao Cao and Liu Bei cooking wine and talking about heroes, Liu Bei was shocked and dropped his chopsticks. Until he got on the boat, Zhu Ping'an's mood was still a little abnormal.

Hai Jui!

That Chun'an Zhixian turned out to be Hai Rui!

Self-proclaimed name, called person name, this is the basic etiquette of the ancient literati, just Chun'an Zhixian thanked the self-proclaimed Hai Rui! The name Hai Jui can be said to be a business card of the Ming Dynasty.

I didn't expect to meet Hai Rui here, now think about Hai Rui's patch official uniform, as well as his arrogance and righteousness, as well as his style of not favoritism and power, you should guess that it is him. Especially Chun'an Zhi County, this is the magistrate who Hai Rui first entered the officialdom.

Although he had seen Yan Song, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, and Zhang Juzheng before, Zhu Ping'an was still very excited when he saw Hai Rui this time.

Hai Rui is a Qing official who can be ranked with Bao Zheng in Chinese history, a model official in ancient times, and one of the few Qingtian masters in the mouth of the common people. Legends and stories about him are widely spread among the people.

Of course, Hai Jui is also a controversial figure in history. There is also a lot of pen and ink about Hai Jui in the history of the wild. For example, the story of Hai Rui's 5-year-old daughter starving to death. According to the wild history, Hai Rui has a 5-year-old daughter, who is innocent and cute, and a manservant gave her a cake to eat. When her daughter was eating, Hai Rui found out and asked her daughter where the cake came from, and her daughter answered truthfully. Hai Rui was furious and reprimanded, starving to death is a small matter of intemperance, how can a girl's family accept the manservant's bread to eat, if you know the shame and starve to death, you can be regarded as my Hai Rui's daughter. His daughter was so frightened that she cried and refused to eat anymore, and then she really starved to death.

If this wild historical record is true, then Hai Rui is simply unreasonable! It's just a sanctimonious pedantic pervert and hypocrite!

However, come to think of it, this account is too nonsensical! Zhu Ping'an had also deliberately checked the history books before, and there was no record of this incident in all the official histories of the Ming Dynasty. The story of Hai Rui's starvation of his daughter was not recorded until "Wanli Ye Shu Ed.", but this book is not a true history, but a wild history, and its author was only a nine-year-old child when Hai Rui died, which means that Hai Rui died at least more than 20 years after the wild history was recorded, and the author also said that this matter was only heard by him, and there was no confirmed rumor.

It is very likely that Hai Jui's political enemies just spread rumors and smeared the matter of starving his daughter.

Of course, that's not to say it's impossible.

Modern people can't confirm it, but they can, they just met Hai Rui, just to verify whether the records of Hai Jui in the official history and the wild history are consistent with the facts, who made it difficult for them in this dynasty.

Hai Rui starved his daughter to death......

First of all, Hai Rui must have a daughter, as if there is no record in the official history that Hai Rui has a daughter......

Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly and smiled, then cleaned up his emotions, lowered his head and ate breakfast, this is the breakfast sent by the shipowner, the four dishes and one soup are very rich, the fresh fish soup in the river, seasonal vegetables, delicious.

Because the owner of the ship knew the identity of Zhu Ping'an's Hanlin official, he refused to let Zhu Ping'an live in the original cabin anymore, and deliberately cleaned up a room with the best location and the highest comfort for Zhu Ping'an to rest.

Breakfast was also freshly delivered.

Regarding the kindness of the shipowner, Zhu Ping'an refused several times to no avail, and had no choice but to accept it. This is the privilege of status, no wonder so many people have sharpened their heads and have to enter the imperial examination.

Not long after Zhu Ping'an finished breakfast, Ying Tianfu was close at hand, and he sailed for another two quarters of an hour to arrive at Ying Tianfu.

After the ship stopped, Zhu Ping'an packed up his things and walked out of the cabin, and the owner of the ship outside was already waiting on the deck with Zhu Ping'an's horse, and sent Zhu Ping'an off the ship very diligently. got off the boat, and the owner insisted on giving Zhu Ping'an 50 taels of silver, but Zhu Ping'an resolutely refused.

Living in a first-class cabin and eating other people's breakfast is already very uncomfortable, how can you collect money from others again, and you are not a corrupt official.

got off the boat, Zhu Ping'an didn't want to stay in Yingtianfu for a long time, out of etiquette, Zhu Ping'an considered visiting Uncle Xia and other villagers and set off north. The inn where the uncle and others settled is not difficult to find, Zhu Ping'an thought about it and went to the inn where the uncle was last time, and sure enough, when he went to the counter and asked, he knew that the uncle and the others were staying in this inn again this time.

However, he did not visit the uncle.

I heard that Uncle and others have been going out early in the morning in recent days, coming back before curfew or early the next morning......

Well, that's a big Bo Zhu Shouren.

With the uncle's behavior, without the exam, Zhu Ping'an had already predicted the uncle's ending.

Girls' school book?

What is this!

Exams should look like exams! What are you doing in girls' school! It's really a public-funded tour!! The lesson was never learned!! If the grandparents knew about it, they would be angry!

Since the uncle is not there, forget it, Zhu Ping'an is too lazy to go to the place of wind and snow, and the uncle and others are chasing after the face of the girls' school book, Zhu Ping'an is even more lazy to look at it, it is too spicy to see. In the lobby of the inn, Zhu Ping'an left a note and said goodbye, and the note was roughly written in just a few lines, so that the uncle and others knew that they had come, and before leaving, he asked the store guy to hand it to the uncle when the uncle came back.

Out of the inn, Zhu Ping'an rode all the way north.

Rushing during the day, staying overnight, or post stations or houses, sometimes temples, there are almost no camps in the barren mountains and mountains, even if it is later, Zhu Ping'an will walk a few more moments to find someone to sleep.

There are many paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River and dry fields in the north, and Zhu Ping'an has a deep understanding on the road. The further north you go, the fewer paddy fields there are. When staying at a house or meeting farmers on the road, Zhu Ping'an will always talk with the local people for a while to understand the harvest and taxes, etc., and people are not wary of the honest and hurried teenagers, and along the way, Zhu Ping'an has a lot of understanding of the life of the people under the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

In the era of feudal rule, people's living standards had too much to do with local parents and officials.

Exorbitant taxes, government decrees, and so on.

Zhu Ping'an recorded everything he saw and heard and the problems mentioned in people's chats before going to bed at night, and waited for him to study slowly after arriving in the capital.

On this day, Zhu Ping'an hurried through a village called Majiazhuang, the village seemed to be an empty city, and he didn't see a single person, if it weren't for the sound of dogs barking and livestock from the village, Zhu Ping'an would have suspected that he had come to the abandoned village.

However, as soon as he walked out of the village, Zhu Ping'an saw that there were people in front of him, gongs and drums were noisy, and crowds of people were surrounding the river.

Looking at the posture, it seems to be sacrificing to the river? (To be continued.) )
