Section 6: Wealth is also compelling

"You did that?" A man who looked like an errand pointed to the filter jar on the counter and said, "I see that you are also a scholar, but don't lie to others." ”

Boss Zhao hurriedly came over and hugged his fists: "This errand officer, I can testify to the little old man, but this thing was made by this son, and I see that it does not hinder the observation and is placed here." ”

Jiang Tian seemed to understand something, how could an errand who had never spent here suddenly come out and ask about it? It seems that someone must be playing tricks behind his back, but he hasn't offended anyone except for the snobbery who leaned on the Red Mansion not far away, so who would frame him? The figures of three people suddenly flashed in his mind, but when he thought about it again, it seemed that something was wrong, why did the other party harm himself? Which royal law did you commit by making a water purifier?

The messenger also seemed to see that they had misunderstood what he meant, so he explained: "My lord has heard that someone has made something that can sweeten bitter water, and he has specially ordered me to check the authenticity. It's not what you think, and if it's such a miracle, a reward is inevitable. Maybe being appreciated by adults will make you find a job. ”

Boss Zhao is a model of old man, so he won't believe this statement lightly, I'm afraid that some official has taken a fancy to this invention and wants to keep it for himself, but then again, even if it's really as he guessed, what can he do? In the end, it depends on how to deal with this stupid show.

Jiang Tian didn't think about it so much, he was still thinking about the informant's mentality, could it be that the three gentlemen thought that they had snubbed them? With their identity, if they want to rectify a shopkeeper, even if they have a talent and fame, they shouldn't have to bother so much. When he saw people asking about the performance of the water purifier, he thought to himself whether it was a blessing or a curse or a curse, and he couldn't avoid it.

"This poor brother is polite, to tell the truth, although this thing can remove the taste of bitter water, but it is not as useful as real sweet water, and only me and the shopkeeper drink it in this store to save money, if you don't believe it, you can taste it."

Tolerance is not polite to listen to him, anyway, he wants to try how amazing this thing is, but he took a sip of the bowl and frowned, indeed as this down-and-out Xiucai said, the water is barely drinkable, but the taste is still not complimentary. He gently put down the bowl, and had to shake his head regretfully: "I'll go back and report to the adults truthfully." Please also write a detailed note about the picture of this object, and I will explain it to the adults. ”

With only such a simple sentence, the hearts of the two people were a lot more relaxed at the same time, and Boss Zhao thought to himself: Such an unsurprising thing will naturally not be remembered. Jiang Tian thought: Anyway, there should be no loopholes in my words to catch, what else can they do to me.

Actually, sometimes things in this world can't be guessed by common sense, otherwise there wouldn't be so many bullshit things in history. But don't overcomplicate a problem, as this will make something simple twist and turn. It's just a simple water purifier, because it involves the current emperor, as a result, several people have gathered together, and all kinds of speculations have come out, when they gather the information they have together, they still can't understand why this poor show can copy the emperor's invention! At this time, someone finally had an idea, solved the complicated matter in the simplest way, and sent someone to find out. When these guys who had nothing to scare themselves got the illustration drawn by Jiang Tian, they immediately blew up the nest!

"This, this, this, ......," an old man with a gray beard pointed to the lines on a piece of papyrus, stunned in surprise.

A middle-aged man with a few strands of long hair floating on his chest and looking like a rich man looked at the old man in surprise: "Why is Lord Song panicking?" ”

On the other side, a beard with a little curly, also known as a beard, wears a gorgeously decorated waist knife, looks like a military general in a military camp, although his expression is a little impatient, but he still whispers in a face: "Old gentleman, don't sell it, what is it?" ”

The old man squinted his eyes and examined it for a long time, and then a fine light shot out of his cloudy eyeballs: "I heard Dexin say that this son is used to writing a hand of military characters, but this picture uses ordinary characters, presumably he wants to cover up his identity, but this composition, this explanation, this style ...... All of them are unique to the Holy Lord! ”

Everyone in the room gasped, how legendary is the emperor today? This is a long story, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as both civil and military. Among them, the most amazing thing in the world is not the half of "Dream of Red Mansions", but the original military text that is easy to eradicate illiteracy. When he resisted the Qing Dynasty, he planned to promote the use of it in the army, and vigorously promoted the vernacular style, at first the literati didn't care too much, after all, if a group of Qiu Ba also quoted scriptures and classics at every turn, what should they do. Over time, the effect of literacy gradually appeared, the transmission of orders from superiors and subordinates, and the morale of soldiers as warriors all improved in different ways, and as the status of the general gradually rose in those years, the achievements of the short-haired army became more and more brilliant, and many warlords began to follow suit, until finally began to threaten the status of traditional literati, which attracted their attention. Therefore, those people talked about maintaining the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty and desperately belittled the generalissimo at that time, which was not so much the embodiment of the idea of loyalty to the monarch, but rather the hysteria of the trapped beast. Speaking of which, this is actually a traditional confrontation between literati and martial artists, and how can he, a former Ming Xiucai in the countryside, be familiar with military characters and military Chinese? Even if he had the opportunity to come into contact with similar official documents, then the painting structure of this sketch is far from the traditional Chinese painting, and the form of interpretation is also different from other ancient books. Therefore, there are very few authentic works of the royal pen, and half of the novel written when he was not a fortune was also caught by the talented woman in the green building. Even now, there are still many who want to emulate these romantic things and recite some works in the hope of gaining the favor of popular girls.

Then the truth seems to be getting more and more blurred, two middle-aged people and an old man pondered there for a long time, and they couldn't see the reason. The military general couldn't bear such a depressing atmosphere, slapped his thigh and shouted out of the door: "You all let me in!" ”

Originally, they were supposed to go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers, and at this time, they stood in the room together, and the pervert who was the leader was very respectful and asked, "Dad, what do you see?" ”

The white-bearded old man shook his head and replied as if for the general: "What else have you found special?" ”

The servant thought about it seriously, and shook his head in unison, but soon the scholar surnamed Tian seemed to remember something: "The younger generation remembered something, it is said that this person was stranded on the street at the beginning, and it was a maid who leaned on the red mansion to kindly take him in until now, and he also boasted that he wanted to redeem the girl in Haikou, obviously he didn't know that the red mansion originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty's teaching workshop, and the people inside were not to say that they were a maid, even if they ushered in the turtle slaves who were sent there, they couldn't get out." I think he was in a hurry to raise money, so he made this thing, and if he made a lot of money, he might be able to reveal more flaws. ”

The three elders nodded at the same time, and the military general glanced at his lascivious son: "Look at others, they are also studying in the Imperial Academy, why don't you care about it?" ”

His son thought to himself, "You are still fighting the world with Your Majesty, and you are always able to listen to the hadiths, but why haven't you grown much?" ”

I thought so in my heart, but I definitely didn't dare to say it, otherwise the palms and soles full of fatherly love would have intimate contact with me. Fortunately, his friend Song Gongzi carried out the siege in time.

"Grandpa according to his grandson, this matter is too widespread, not only the relatives are worried about the emperor's attitude, maybe this also involves some secrets of the heavenly family, it is better for us to report it truthfully, just say that someone was found in the market to plagiarize the emperor's invention back then, and see how the saint deals with it."

The white-bearded old man nodded first, and then shook his head: "The past of the previous dynasty is vivid, I can't help but be frightened by you, the elders, in fact, we are also too worried, if the emperor really wants to hide the bow and hide the bow, he will not do this method, just a paper edict and a team of officers and soldiers, I am afraid that you will not comply?" ”

The middle-aged man who has not spoken much sighed: "Old Master Song has always been appreciated by His Majesty, and he has personally praised him as a Hainaqi person, you have followed us earlier than us, and also sighed that the power of heaven is unpredictable, our emperor is definitely the first rare in ancient times, since the army of Pingliao, the court has been re-established, and the arrogant Manchu Qing has been torn apart, and Donglin has been exterminated but is not afraid of the resistance of the world's scholars. Who in the world dares to say that he can read the emperor's mind? Not to mention that I am a powerless scholar like me, even a man like Brother Liu, who has a family tradition of martial arts, is still trembling when he faces the king. I'm afraid that only Zhu Hongwu of the previous dynasty has such a heavenly might, can we not be afraid? ”

In fact, the real subtext is that if the emperor immediately loses his temper, he will also raise a butcher's knife like Zhu Yuanzhang to dismantle the meritorious heroes, they don't even have the courage to resist, they just want to get the news in advance and see if they can run away first.

Lord Liu, the guard with a knife in front of the emperor, squinted his eyes thoughtfully, the four major cases of Hongwu in the previous dynasty were indeed impressive, and his ancestors also had a deep relationship with King Yan of Beiping, so he knew which literati were cooking with birds and rabbits and dead dogs, but he just found a fig leaf for himself. Lan Yu is dead, why did Xu Guogong's family become rich and prosperous to the point that the Ming Dynasty perished? It is only now that he has been stripped of his title. Hu Weiyong is also finished, it is indeed far-fetched to say that he wants to rebel as a civil official, but are those officials who peel off the skin and grass really wronged? Not necessarily! Look at the dirty faces of the Donglin Party at the end of the Ming Dynasty, according to their own meaning, they are cheaper just by skinning. It seems that the ancients are right, the wood show will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the rafters that come out first will rot first. If you want your family and country to live together for 300 years, this is the first priority to be a man with your tail between your legs.

Thinking of this and looking at his unsuccessful son, a nameless karmic fire rose in his heart: "The little beast knows that you are stupid standing here, and you are also studying in the inner court, but you can do something except cause trouble!" ”

Liu Pervert let his father scold him a little bit and couldn't find the north, and said that I just stood here and it was wrong, so what should I do? In fact, how did he know that his father was actually more worried about the future of the family than the other two families, because they had a special identity, that is, the Liu family's own family was actually a Hui in the northwest, and it was also a descendant of Persia who had moved to the Central Plains for hundreds of years, but in addition to religious habits, this branch of his family had been completely sinicized, because less than three hundred years ago, his ancestors had followed Zhu Di to raise troops and fight against Jingjing, and because of the accumulation of military exploits, he was rewarded and the land has been thriving in Tianjin. I didn't expect the times to change, when he was still a small general emperor went north to resist the Qing Dynasty, when he passed by Tianjin Wei, his father led the young people in the clan to join the army as soon as his head was hot, and the clansmen who could return to their hometown after many years of bloody battles were less than two percent, in exchange for the name of Megatron and the duke title of the Liu family and the royal genealogy. Don't look at his family is a military general, there may be a few fools who crawled out of the pile of dead people, in the whole of North China and Shanxi, his family's appeal in the ** is too great, it is difficult to guarantee that one day the emperor will not be jealous and invite trouble, and if you are a foreign unlucky, I am afraid you will not get the strong support of Hanchen. So no matter how he looks at it, he feels that his son who lacks heart and eyes is not pleasing to the eye, in case this kid causes trouble outside and spreads to the ears of people with hearts, maybe it will be a catastrophe.

In fact, there is one person in the whole room who doesn't take this matter to heart, that is, the old man Song who has always been respected, don't look at his old age, but he is not confused, with his years of observation of the emperor who usurped the throne on the Golden Palace, he was not so careful, that is a true dragon son who really has the bearing of accepting all rivers, and the abacus of these relatives is not in sight at all, just like he said at the beginning, it is still so troublesome to deal with you? Directly sent a team of forbidden troops to the door to announce the seizure of the house, which of you has the courage to resist? Moreover, if it is decided today, Li Zicheng in the northwest has escaped into the desert and his ghost is not gone, although Zhang Xianzhong of Sichuan has surrendered, there are still some remnants of sin, although the four major feudal towns of the former Ming Dynasty have been broken up, but most of the original officers still serve in the army, and the Zheng family in the southeast has a close relationship with the imperial court and has also won the title of Duke of Dinghai, but who would have thought that Zheng Zhilong's son would be loyal to the former Ming Dynasty, and he was stunned to pull up a team and ran to Taiwan across the sea. In the face of this situation, which founding monarch would be so eager to cut off the forces on his side. Even if the world is peaceful in the future, with the emperor's grand vision of swallowing mountains and rivers, you people will definitely be idle all over the world to run errands. It's just that this truth has not yet been told, and I can't help but feel a little regretful.
