Volume 3 The Emperor Acts as a Matchmaker
Word Cloud:
Heroes are never satisfied, and they are so poor that they are still beggars. The money is still in danger, and the ditch is hungry. It is easy to ask for copper money, and it is rare for beggars to have a good reputation. Whoever teaches this generation is also famous, just for the sake of few well-dressed people.
The right tune of "Yulou Chun" is to explain the benefits of a child called Huazi during the Zhengde period. The people in the world have become called the son, and it can be said that the lowly filth has not grown to the extreme, why do they still praise him? I don't know that although the road of begging for food is shameful, it is still a regression of the hero's misstep, and the back door of the hero's desperation, which is different from other evil things. If the business of the people in the world is counted from the bottom and turned backwards, it is still the third type of person.
The first type of indecent person is a robber and a thief, the second type of indecent person is a prostitute, and the third kind of indecent person is this generation. The hearts of this generation are only because they refuse to be robbers and disdain to be prostitutes, so they carefully choose techniques to make a living.
If there are rich people in the world, if they meet this generation, they must have mercy on him, and be considerate of him. When he saw the cowardly beggar, he compared him with the second kind of obscene, and thought to himself: "If such people are willing to be prostitutes, where can they find food and money, and do this kind of troubled life?" A person who does not do something must be a person who can be promising, who knows that it is not Wu Xiangguo who blows the flute, and Zheng Yuanhe, who is down-and-out? No matter how much or too little, you must give a few things, and you must not deceive him for not having it, criticize him with malicious words, and insult him with the food of sloppiness. β
When he saw the fierce beggar, he compared the first kind to him, and thought to himself: "If such a person is a robber and walks in the door in the dark, and does not say that the property of the house is swept away by him, and even my life hangs in his hands, how can it be more than a penny or two pennies and a bowl and a half of rice?" Why do you not give to him, and you will compel others to steal? "Everyone has this kind of heart to tolerate this generation, not only to go openly and secretly, but to have their own everlasting wealth, and there will be no beggar children in the hereafter; It can also make prostitutes and thieves rarer; Even in the government of the king, it is not helpless.
Chen Mei Gongyun: "The sect of Buddhism is the largest nursing home in Chaoyan's family. So that the widows and lonely people will be returned here, so that there will be no advantage of the people without informing. I said: "Beitian First Courtyard is the biggest move in the imperial court." so that those who are loafing will return here, so that they will not have hunger, cold, and stealing. "These two kinds of arguments are judged by themselves, and they are not clichΓ©s for the future from the history of barnyard officials, and those who read novels must not use novels for the purpose of fiction. Besides, among the beggars, there are all loyal ministers and righteous people, literati and writers hidden in it, and they cannot be hastily seen. As for the chaotic separation, at the beginning of the Ding Revolution, the number of begging roads turned out to be the shepherd country of loyal ministers, the Caiwei Mountain of righteous people, and the place where the pit of literati and ink writers slipped through the net, and all those who had a home and no country to return to were supported here. Those who have the heart of the world should use the gift of recruiting talents, one food and three spit out, one bath and three hands of hair, to recruit him, how to desecrate him with leftovers of tea? Now I will first ask two enlightened companions and this biography to make an introduction, one is a literati and ink writer in the peaceful season, and the other is a righteous and loyal minister in the chaotic season, which can be said to be the eyes and ears of newcomers.
During the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a eunuch who forgot his name. Because he was sent to Ryukyu, he also passed through Suzhou. The scenery on the mountain of Muhuqiu is victorious, a boat is specially moored, a feast is prepared, and a bottle of famous wine, called grape wine, is sent by the king of the Ryukyus to make his next trip, and brought to the top of the mountain. brought a few companions, spread the velvet sheets, and wrote poems while drinking.
While he was searching for dry intestines, suddenly a beggar came up the hill and stood in front of him begging for wine and food. The eunuch was furious, saying that he obstructed the pen and stirred up his thoughts, and was extremely hateful, and paid his family to expel him.
He was not in a hurry, and replied to the eunuch: "I only said that the old man is doing something difficult here, so the strange people disturbed, but it turned out to be a poem."
What are the difficulties in making poems, for fear of disturbance? I beg for my own food, you make your own poems, the two are not harmful, why bother? After saying these two words, he just stood still.
The eunuch said angrily to his family: "There is a man called Huazi in front of him, how can he make a good poem?" Don't hurry him up yet! The beggar said: "If you set up a child in front of you, you can't make good poems; If you still set up a serious person, you can't even write good words. Li Taibai of the Tang Dynasty, sat in front of an emperor, and set up a concubine, and still wrote like a stream, making three songs of "Qingping Tune", which is the swan song of the ages. Could it be that from ancient times to the present, only Li Taibai can be called a talented man, and he is not a poet? When the eunuch heard these words, he was so angry that he couldn't bear it, he couldn't bear it, he couldn't bear it, he couldn't attack again, and he looked at the guests face to face.
One of the companions said: "He is just talking plainly, listening to a few stories, adjusting his lips and tongue here, and knowing what "Qingping Tune" is?" Wait for me to take a plate of him. Then he said to the beggar, "I will ask you." 'Qingping tune' is still an ancient style, or a rhythmic poem, or a quatrain? The beggar said: "It's not an ancient style, it's not a poem, and I'm afraid it's not a quatrain." The people said, "What kind of poetry is this?" The beggar said: "The three words 'Qingping Tune' are poetry, why do you need to ask?" They laughed for a while, and then asked him, "What are these three poems for?" What is the meaning of the poem? The beggar said: "The three words 'Qingping tune' are the meaning of the poem, so why ask?" They laughed again and then said to him, "Why?
Your horse's feet are exposed. These three poems were written for the peony, and they are called Seven Words Absolute Name. I don't know the style of the poem, and I don't understand the meaning of the title at all, so I guess blindly here. Horizontal is also 'Qingping Tune', vertical is also 'Qingping Tune', 'Qingping Tune' is something, but can you eat it?" beggar said: "In this way, the rank is admitted to be wrong. These three poems are not only quatrains, but also not poems, but three poems. But in all poems, those who can sing but do not sing are called poems; Those who can sing and sing are called Yuefu. If these three poems are poems, the original title should be the three words "Yong Peony", and it should not be called "Qingping Tune". The so-called tune is the Yue tune, Shang tune, Dashi tune and the like in the lyrics and songs. Xuanzong Tianzi came up with this topic with him, originally to be orchestrated, so that the workers practiced, saw the sea banquet and the river clear, the court had nothing to do, the holy son of heaven sat in the deep palace, all day long to see the famous flowers, pro-national color, feasting Qingping meaning, so it is called "Qingping Tune".
The beauty of these three poems is that the literary style is good, and the palace business is cooperative, so they are happy and have received many favors; If it is just a collection of literary works, it is just a few poems, why have they been passed down through the ages and thought to be a perfect tune? Now that the rank is public, the poetry is not called knowing, and the meaning of the title is not called very understanding, so I have to be born in this time, and I can hide it as a companion of the eunuchs; If he was also born in the Tang Dynasty and should be made with Li Taibai, I am afraid that the text may not be Chinese. Not only is the reward wheel not available, but even the two dragon and phoenix lanterns have to be borrowed by Chongzun's hand, and it is unknown to send Li Taibai back to the hospital. After saying these words, he arched his hand and said: "The beggar is rude, he doesn't know the taboo, and he collides with the rank of the prince, no wonder." When the people heard this, they were so angry that they wanted to pull their hair and beat them up before they were happy.
It's just because it's in the way of the owner, it's not easy to do it.
The eunuch saw that he was dealing with it like a stream, and he spoke clearly and clearly, knowing that it was a literati and a scholar who had fallen down, and between the words, there was something to give him preferential treatment. Why are those companions unconvinced, and refuse to entertain him.
There is a saying in it: "Those words of his are all heard from other places, and there are all people in the world who talk about the present and the past, and their mouths are like a river, and even when they lift a pen, they can't write a word."
Now I ask the old gentleman to take a test for him, if you still write it, it is as convenient as the mouth, and the later students are willing to let you sit down. The eunuch said to the beggar, "Do you know how to write poetry?" β
The beggar said: "A music house like Li Taibai, if you really can't do it, if you only need to write a chapter, regardless of the rhythm, and sing and harmonize with these people, you should still be able to get by." β
Xian Eunuch said: "Take a piece of poetry and a pair of pen inkstones with him." The beggar said: "This kind of begging for the master's life is a question, limited to one rhyme." Xian Eunuch said: "The title of the poem is just the meaning of climbing high and looking into the distance, just do it at will." It is expected that the person who is called Huazi does not know a few words, and it is not good to make it difficult for you, so it is limited to the word "Shang" of "Shang". β
The beggar picked up the pen, first wrote the word 'one', and then wrote the word 'up', then dropped the pen and stood with his hands in his hands, but it seemed that he could not do it.
When the guests saw it, they all covered their mouths and smiled. Xian Yan said: "I said that in your chest, there are only one or two dots of ink, and you know what poetry to make." I just wrote two words, and then I stopped, is there a poem with two words in the world? The beggar said: "Don't hide it from the master, although the beggar's talent is not as good as Li Taibai, the problem of making poems on weekdays is the same as him. If you ask me to do it, I can't do it. β
The eunuch said: "Just reward him with a bowl of wine." The housekeeper poured a big bowl and put it on the table, the beggar sucked it up, picked up the pen, still wrote the word "one", wrote the word "up", dropped the pen again, and stood up. The eunuch said angrily: "Why are these two words again, and they don't move after writing these two words?" The beggar said: "Just because there is more wine and less wine, and the help is down, so the pen machine is dry and can't be written." Ask the master to give me a few more bowls, and return you with a wave. The eunuch said, "Wait for another bowl of reward for him." The butler poured another bowl with him.
He had eaten it all, picked up the pen, added the word "again", and then wrote the word "one up", still dropped the pen and stood up. The eunuch said, "What else do you have to say now? β
The beggar said: "After all, it is the reason for the lack of wine, if you drink all this pot and the poem is not successful, you will be punished with the number of gold valley wine." The eunuch said to his family: "I know that he is cheating on wine and eating, so I will give him this pot, and if I can't do it again, I will always settle accounts with him." The beggar held a pen in one hand and a bowl in the other, and told the housekeeper to pour it without stopping. After eating a bowl, the word "one up" is still written. Those accompanying guests saw him writing back and forth, but these two easy words, knowing that it was Bai Ding, there was no doubt that he was about to take revenge, and after he didn't want to finish eating, he put these few easy words into a sentence, and then continued three sentences, which happened to be a poem of overlook. The eunuch took a look, and laughed and cheered. Its poems: one on the top and one on the other, one on the straight and the blue sky; Looking back at the white clouds, the four seas and five lakes look at the same.
The eunuch pinched this piece of poetry, and pulled the guests to the back to discuss, saying that this person was very angry, and he must not be the following people, and he should be pulled into the table to drink together. The words of the guests all said that the important ministers of the court and the beggars sat together, which was close to losing their bodies, and the others spread it, hindering the officials. The eunuch hesitated for a while, turned around, and was about to talk to him, not wanting him to drift away after the poem was completed, let the call be called, and never look back.
The eunuch was helpless, so he only paid a butler to tail him down the mountain and observe his movements. When he walked to the foot of the mountain, three or four famous prostitutes took him off the boat, removed his hat, took off his rags, and changed into new clothes. Even the people on the shore clapped their hands, and the butler asked, "What kind of people just got on the boat?" Why do you pretend to be like this? The man on the shore said: "This is a Xie Yuan Xianggong in this department, surnamed Tang Mingyin, and the name Bohu." Calligraphy and painting articles are the first today, very witty and cynical, people call him the wind demon Xie Yuan. At first, when your lord was about to go up the mountain, his wine boat was anchored next to your boat, and he could not salivate when he smelled a good bottle of wine on your ship. Later, when he saw your master go up the mountain, he said to the famous prostitutes, 'How about you make a way, go up the mountain and trick him into a few cups, and taste the taste.' A famous prostitute said: "Today's eunuch, I don't know that there is a Tang Bohu among the celebrities, you have to write a famous post and go to worship him, afraid that he will not leave you as the chief?" Tang Bohu said: "Writing late-born posts is the skill of today's celebrities, and I have always laughed at them, and this abstinence cannot be broken." Besides, when he walked to hit the seat clearly, he also felt that there were no waves.
It is interesting to have a clever way to eat his wine and not let him know his name. A famous prostitute said, "This is said that unless you make a story about people begging for food, you will definitely get it, but I am afraid that you will not have such a face." Tang Bohu said: "Talented people are cynical, why not?" Bi Officials are thieves for wine, thieves can still do it, but what about beggars? Then he changed into tattered clothes and hats, disguised himself as a man, and went up the mountain to cheat wine and eat. When I was going down the mountain, I saw him drunk, and I thought he had fallen for his tricks. The butler told him what he said about poetry and wine, and flew up the hill to reply to his master. The eunuch was shocked: "It turned out to be Tang Bohu!" It's a pity that such a famous man missed him face to face! He complained to the guests: "I wanted to be polite to him, but my brothers refused to block the virtuous road, made him a cynical freak, and made me a virtuous and foolish vulgar." This miracle will be preached. In case someone starts a show, these two gouaches on my face are the ones that my brothers have seen. The escorts were speechless and ashamed.
On the second day, a grand gift was prepared, and a bottle of grape wine was brought into the city to visit Tang Bohu. Tang Bohu resigned the gift, stopped accepting a bottle of famous wine, opened it in person, and said goodbye to him. At the time of parting, the eunuch asked him for a painting. He painted yesterday's story into a colored landscape, called "Liuru Mountain People Begging for Food". This famous painting and this rhyme have been circulated to this day, and they are considered to be real deeds. Although he is not a real beggar, he also puts a rough bowl for a while, wears a lot of stubble and mending, cheats a lot of good wine to eat, and has a reputation as a merry hero. This is the story of the literati and the artist.
That loyal minister and righteous man, not far away, came out in the last years of Chongzhen. Since the thieves broke through the capital and the Emperor Daxing was mutinied, all men with some blood refused to follow the thieves except for death. When the family was ruined and the country was broken, when the war was in chaos, it was expected that he would not be able to have enough food and clothing, and most of them became beggars. Hearing that Nanjing set up Hongguang, he only said that he was the master of Zhongxing, and all of them stretched out their palms and copied them along the way, hoping to assist Mingjun and fight against the national thieves. Who wants to come to Nanjing, see Hongguang greedy for wine and lust, and have many politics, knowing that he can't be prosperous, and he is disappointed. At that time, the hermits in the Beitian courtyard could not stand hunger, and those who came out to be officials, although there were eight or nine points out of ten, there were also one or two points of masters, insisting on rough bowls, hard clothes, and would rather be beggars for a long time than be rich and prosperous for a while.
Therefore, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, they were all people with integrity and integrity. If you don't have integrity and integrity, you can't be an official, and you will be thrown into the thieves and rob your property. At that time, the fish and dragons were mixed, and it was difficult to distinguish between good and bad, who knew that there were all characters among the beggars.
Until the Qing Dynasty Dingding, when the soldiers went south, all the civil and military officials fled, and the most people died in the unique Huazi, but unfortunately the name is unknown, and it is difficult to record. Only the beggar who committed suicide by throwing himself into the water under the Baichuan Bridge in Jiangning Mansion made a poem about Jingjing, which was written on the bridge, and it has been popular to this day. His poems: For more than 300 years, he fled when he heard that the country was in trouble.
Tsunade often stayed in Beitian Temple, and the beggar was ashamed to save his life.
Isn't this a righteous man among the beggars? The words are annoying, and the business is said.
During the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a literate beggar on the Shandong Road, whose mixed name was "not afraid of poverty". He is extremely eccentric, suddenly surnamed Zhang, suddenly surnamed Li, and has no certain surname. Today in the east, tomorrow in the west, there is no definite dwelling. Sometimes he wears a square scarf and silk silk, and is the first rich man among the beggars; Sometimes unkempt and barefoot, without even tattered clothes and hats, he became the first poor man in the city.
Why is there no surname? He was a son of an old family, but because people value wealth and righteousness, he regarded gold and silver as dung and friends as life; He also likes to hold grievances for others, and there are big grievances in the township, and he is cowardly and can't tell him, so he stands up and complains on his behalf. After a few lawsuits and a few years of squandering, the thousands of gold industries were exhausted, leaving a single grain in the warehouse and half a penny.
When the friend who had been favored in the past saw that he was poor, he refused to borrow a penny; Even his own wife, who did not wear or eat, was hungry and cold, and forced him to become Zhu Maichen.
Because he saw through the world and had no attachment, he abandoned his wife and children, drifted out of the house, married him and kept it, only carrying a stick and a bowl, being a Qi person who was not proud of his wife and concubine, and begging outside.
Knowing that he didn't grow up, he insulted his ancestors, and was afraid that people would know his surname, saying that he was someone's son and someone's grandson, and he wanted to give the word "called Hua" to his ancestors, so he refused to speak out, and suddenly his surname was Zhang, and his surname was Li.
Why didn't you settle down? He said: "Calling" two words, but also with the interpretation of others, if you only care about the stomach, do not hesitate to be shameful, exchange dozens of "masters" and "grandmothers" for him for a penny, call and call, and turn into a change, this is the "call" of calling, the "transformation" of recruitment; If you still do a good job, you will be honest, and you will do some morality in the begging, so that people will see it, and they will think, "If a beggar is like this, how can a man be like a beggar?" In doing so, it is the "teaching" of persuasion and the "transformation" of change.
Every point of the family, only once in a lifetime. This time, I only asked him for one article, and I didn't hurt his integrity, and I didn't hurt his favor. In the first official, there was a "one penny too guard". If a person who is a keeper takes a penny from him, it is not called greed for ink, let alone a beggar? If you are still in one place, and the people who have begged for it go to ask for it all day long, not only will you be hated by others, but you will also feel uneasy in your heart; It is better to travel around the world, spread food in all directions, so that my education will be carried out in the world, and those who are good at giving joy in the world will not be able to see me a second time, just like the dragon in the sky, so that people can see the head and not the tail, how high and noble, how incorruptible! He made up his mind, so that today in the east and tomorrow in the west, he would not live in the same place for a year and a half. Why did suddenly become a rich man, and suddenly a poor man? Because he is generous by nature, the worst of all is the miserly. As the old saying goes: "The country is easy to change, but the temperament is difficult to change." He became a son, and he still valued wealth and righteousness. He asks for charity from others, and he asks for money to give to others. The rich master's family saw that he was begging for food, he was a hard worker, and he knew the present and the past, and he would make a few rough poems, and he would not treat him as a beggar. When he walked in the door, he either handed the tea with his own hands or called for someone to deliver food; Either untie the string and pick up a large amount of money, or spread out the wallet and throw a small piece, he will not open his mouth, and he will be willing to give him alms.
Therefore, his money is very easy to come by, and there must be hundreds of extremely large copper coins and dozens of extremely broken pieces of silver all day and night. If you are willing to accumulate it, not only will you not lose your voice, but you can also restore your old business and become a wealthy man. How can he not change his old nature, but it is like silver and money with a sharp sword on it, and he wants to cut off the palm of a person's hand, and when he has a few points, he will definitely disperse, and he will never stay by his side for the night. When he saw that among his companions, sometimes he had bad luck and could not be turned in, and he judged money to help him; If a man is sick in bed and cannot go out to call for change, he shall be provided for by the year and the month. This may mean sympathy, injury and the like, and so on, and it is just enough.
Sometimes, when they go to a poor family, they see that their home is running out of food, the stove is smoking, the dead have no coffins, and the sick have little medicine, so they don't feel compassion. Do you not want him to give alms, but pour out cold rice into the old bag, and give it to the benefactor to satisfy his hunger; He took out the money from the rag bag and gave it to Tanna as a blessing.
Therefore, when you are called the season of transformation, if you do not be a good man for three or five days, buy some clothes, and put them on, you are the first rich man among beggars; When Saman was gone, there was no one to help him for a day or two, his clothes were sold, and he was born naked, which was the first poor man in the city.
When people see that he is so poor that he is called a god, he still does not look back, and he is called "not afraid of poverty". Later, no one in Beijing, Henan, Shandong, and Shanxi did not know his name, and he became a famous man among beggars. Everyone looked to him to see how he had a face and behaved like this.
One day to ask for Taiyuan Mansion in Shanxi, it was also his luck was unfavorable, and the catastrophe was difficult to escape, and the fate of celebrities and celebrities suddenly became unbearable. When he first arrived at the place, there was only one kind prostitute, who left him with a full meal, and asked him to come and go again when he went out.
"Poor are not afraid" is to ask once but not for the second time, how can you be willing to go again. He knew that there was no second good man except this believing woman. After begging for four or five days, the low money was not seen. After standing at the head of the house for a few hours, I can't turn off a bowl of cold porridge and a pot. When he was leaving, he would curse a few times, throw his food on the ground, and wait for him to pick it up; There was no more kind face, and it was handed to him in his hand.
"Poor and not afraid" is a chivalrous person, who would rather endure hunger and starve, and make sex go out, rather than suffer from the food that is sloppy. I was hungry for a few days, but I didn't notice a flower in my eyes, a cicada in my ears, and a belly that I didn't lean on, sucked it on my back, and looked at it to see if I wanted to be Boyi and Shuqi.
Staying in the cold temple, he thought about it repeatedly: "My usual fortune is rare, why didn't I have luck for the reason?" Although it is said that a person who is called Huazi will live to be 100 years old and will starve to death, but my person is different from others, I live one year longer, and I do one more year of good deeds for the people in the world. Isn't it old and sick, but it can't be done when you die? After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly came to his senses and said, "Yes." In the past, people were willing to give alms, firstly, because they valued my character, and secondly, because they admired my reputation, so as soon as they met, they treated each other like guests, money and food, and did not ask for it. When I first arrived in the place now, no one has ever introduced me to the place, saying that there is a 'poor and not afraid' who is light on wealth and righteousness, and that he wants to come here to do the Tao, and everyone will be happy with him; I have never called myself by name, saying that I am a well-known 'poor and not afraid' from far and near. He knows who I am, and is he willing to treat me out of the ordinary? Now I have no choice but to do Mao Sui self-recommendation. I will also test the knack of being a celebrity and a celebrity lately, so that he may know me, and only under my fame can he respect me. "When the calculation is decided, I buy a large piece of cotton paper, make several layers, make a poem of seven words and four sentences, write on it, just like the signboard of astrological doctors, pinch it in my hand, and go to the house to call for transformation. His poems: "Poor are not afraid" of righteousness and wealth, and the title of the book hangs on the shoulder. When others give to me, I will do to others, so that they can be educated in the midst of transformation.
Take this signboard, stay hungry, and go to the street to bump around. Only saying that the three words "poor are not afraid" is a cash cow, and people on the street see it, but they only hate to see each other late, how can they miss it in person, and they don't accept it? Who thinks that everything in the world has accidents. Before the signboard was hung, although the silver and copper coins could not be obtained, there were still some leftovers of tea and leftovers to look at with him, make a plum to quench his thirst, and draw cakes to satisfy his hunger; After hanging the signboard, the cold porridge had to be kept for the cats, and the pot had to be fed to the dogs, so I didn't have to meet him.
"Poor are not afraid" stood up with sore legs, screamed thirsty, and begged for a stick to beat out.
In a Taiyuan city, I don't know hundreds of thousands of families, all of them are like this, as if they wrote a contract and wanted to starve him to death. I don't know why? He had to sigh and say, "If the Tao doesn't work, it's fate." 'Poor are not afraid' as fate as it is! "When I returned to the cold temple, I lost the signboard, and I didn't seek to survive or die, I just lay on my back to the sky, just waiting to die.
Pity him for being a hungry man, where can he endure hunger again? After only one day and one night, there was no water slurry in the stomach, and I felt that my limbs were cold, my eyes were fixed and my mouth was open, and there was only air out, not air intake.
Official, you said that the education of "being poor is not afraid" is everywhere, but Taiyuan alone cannot be done; People everywhere like to give, but Taiyuan doesn't like to give, what is the reason? You must know that the people of Taiyuan also admire him very much, just because they put it in their mouths all day long, and when they saw the beggar coming to the door, they shouted at him: "Don't you know that there is a 'poor and not afraid' in the Huahua?" People only ask for one point, and the second time they invite him, he won't come, this is a good flower. Why don't you learn from him, just come to the door to get annoyed at the end of the three days, we will not give up you even if we have money, we have to stay here, and wait for the 'poor not to be afraid'. That's what everybody says.
Spread, there was a distant beggar, who wanted to shoot profits, and even pretended to be "poor and not afraid", and went to Taiyuan to do the Tao first. The people of Taiyuan all put his face on his face
He looked at his demeanor carefully, and then gave him the money and the meal, and the beggar went away with a large sum of money. When he was leaving, he said to everyone: "I am not afraid of poverty, I am a good horse, and I will never eat back grass." I've disturbed it once now, and I'll never come back again. I'm afraid that there will be shameless people who, after I go, will rest for a year and a half, and pretend to be my cheap name to disturb the place, which will not only cost the donor's money, but also ruin my bad reputation. Keep this in mind, and do not be deceived. Therefore, the people of Taiyuan, firstly, mistook the appearance of their predecessors, and secondly, they misheard the preconceived words, and at first they regarded the fake as the true, but now they naturally regard the real as the fake. So when I saw him, like an enemy, I refused to give up half a copper coin, even that piece of pot, half a bowl of cold porridge, and reluctantly threw it at him, and it was like violating the holy decree, how could I be willing to shoot happily? "Poor and not afraid" is only tired because of his high name, and he has no livelihood, and no one tells him, where did he know? At that time, I was starving to the point of dying for a lifetime. The general manager of the place in this place used to wish that the beggar had died, so he could go to each family to collect money, buy a few reeds and sweep away the dead, carry them to be buried, and take the rest to buy wine and meat to eat. At this time, seeing that the "poor are not afraid" was cold, and he thought that there was no life, so he didn't wait for him to lose his breath, and went to various branches first.
By chance, he came to the house of a prostitute, the prostitute surnamed Liu, who was the first famous prostitute in Taiyuan City, and was following a rich prostitute and playing chess with him.
When he heard that the beggar was dead, he dropped the chess piece and hurriedly asked, "Is that called Huazi from there?" Do you know his name? The place said: "It came from Shandong Road, and the mixed name is 'not afraid of poverty'." The prostitute exclaimed, "This is a living Bodhisattva, why is it that he is not sick or painful, but he will die?" The place said: "There is no one to give alms, and they are starving to death." The prostitute sighed and said, "This beggar, the people here don't know where he comes from, I lived in Shandong, and he was also called Hua in Shandong, only I know him, this is really 'poor and not afraid', and the one who came before was an impostor." The prostitute said, "What good is it to a beggar that someone else may be famous?" The prostitute told his clients about the good deeds of his life.
The prostitute said: "I'm afraid it's just a rumor, there are such good people among the beggars?" β
The prostitute said, "What I hear is false, but what I see is true, and I have not only seen his benefits, but I have also received his favor myself." To tell the public, when I was twelve or thirteen years old, my family was completely poor, and my mother had been dead for three days, so I couldn't prepare a coffin. He called Hua to my house, and I cried bitterly to him, 'Mother's body is exposed, and it cannot be collected, so there is a copper coin to send you?'
He didn't believe it at first, but when he showed him the corpse, he was moved with compassion, and took out a bag of silver, though not one or two, but seven or eight hundred pieces, all of which were called for it, and scraped together a few hundred copper coins, and gave them to my father, and made a coffin. When my family was in danger, I couldn't be ashamed of it, so I had to accept him. If it weren't for his help, my mother's bones would hardly be able to be buried, and he would have been my benefactor. When I walked in the door the day before yesterday, I knew him, and he didn't recognize me.
Leave him with only one meal, and ask him to come back another day, to tell him the truth, and repay him heavily. Isn't it pitiful that they starved to death when they didn't see each other for a few days? After speaking, tears began to fall.
The prostitute said: "Since he helped you bury your relatives, I will also return his coffin for you now, and if you do some good things to overtake him, you can repay him."
The prostitute said: "If this is the case, be grateful" The prostitute will pay the family, take five taels of silver, and hand it over to the local chief A to prepare a coffin, and after the funeral, then ask the monk to surpass him. The prostitute was afraid that the local governor would invade her, so she asked her family to go with her, and she was buried together.
Whoever wants to buy a coffin and carry it to the temple and look at the dead will not die.
The family begged for some hot soup and poured it a few mouthfuls, and then poured the porridge and soup, and unconsciously spoke to people, saying: "I am a person who starved to death, a copper coin, half a bowl of cold rice, and no one gave alms, where did this coffin come from?" All the rich men of the city will put me to death, and what are the ranks, and why will they come to my rescue? "The local government and his family told him again that the prostitute was grateful for his former kindness and that the prostitute helped him with the expenses of his coffin." Poor are not afraid" exclaimed: "Is there still a person in the world who knows how to repay virtue now?" It's a miracle. In this way, it seems that there are not only characters among the beggars, but also among the prostitutes. After being pleasantly surprised for a while, he barely struggled to buy some snacks to eat, and the Yang family helped him and went to thank the benefactor. When the prostitute saw that he was alive, she was overjoyed and hurriedly brought food for him.
The prostitute asked him, "You used to be poor, but now you are poor?" He nodded and said, "I'm scared." The prostitute said, "If you have money in the future, do you dare to waste it?" β
He shook his head and said, "Don't dare to waste it again." The prostitute said to the prostitute, "He will not die in great trouble, and if he can repent, it will be good in the future." Since you have received his favor in the past, and now you have no relatives, why don't you become brothers and sisters with him? Stay at home and raise him with some idle food, first, to repay his kindness, and second, to accumulate virtue, how bad is it? The prostitute replied, "I am going to do the same." In front of the prostitute, he bowed to heaven a few times. From then on, the prostitute called him a brother, and he called the prostitute a sister, and the two got along very well.
After three or five days, "not afraid of poverty" became a little bored, and thought to himself: "After I broke my family, I only came out to call for prostitution because I didn't care about being a prostitute." Now that I have been hungry for ten years, I have followed a prostitute again, and I have become a turtle relative, trying to feed and lose my reputation, isn't it for the sake of being small and losing my big? β
He excused himself from the prostitute and his client, and went elsewhere. The prostitute couldn't keep him, so he only paid and said: "Why don't you do any good things, you just want to call for a person?" You see, which one has a harvest? I will give you fifty taels of silver now, and you can use it to make capital, find some business to do, and don't go to the palace anymore. After speaking, he paid his family to open the leather box, took out a large ingot, and delivered it to him with his own hands.
"Poor are not afraid" repeatedly excused himself, but he couldn't get rid of it, so he had to bear it. The prostitute gave him something to pay, "Thou art a generous man, and you have this amount of money, so that you will not see the poor and give alms; After giving it up, it will inevitably be like the story of the day before yesterday. I am afraid that I will starve to death elsewhere, and there will be no second person who will pour porridge and soup and give coffins. Now I give thee a ring, and thou shalt wear it on thy hand, but when it is time to use the silver, I shall think of my words, and shall be anxious to cease and not to spread as before. And when he had said that, he took away a gold ring and put it on his hand for him.
"Poor are not afraid" Thank you very much, say goodbye to going out. Thinking in his heart, he said: "With these fifty taels of silver, it is natural to do business, is it better to call it a failure?" It's just one thing, I've never done business in my life, and I don't know what that deal is done. In case of folding the book, it is still called Hua; It's better to hide the silver by your side, and then call it for a while, see that the business in the world is the most stable, learn some skills in the stomach, and then do it, it's not too late. After the calculation was decided, he left Taiyuan and went to Gaoyang County, Baoding Prefecture, Beijing. It is also thanks to him that he is good at listening to advice, does not disobey the advice, and keeps the words of the prostitute in his heart, and does not dare to waste half of the money, and he is allowed to stay up for a month.
After January, it was his monthly construction that was unfavorable, and the catastrophe was inevitable. When I got up early in the morning and went to the street to call Huahua, I saw a woman in her forties, kneeling at the door of a village eunuch's house, and kowtowing incessantly. kowtowed, and shouted: "Master Tianguan, return my people!" He kowtowed hundreds of times before he walked away. So it is today and so it will be tomorrow. Coincidentally, if he is "not afraid of poverty" and does not go, he will never come again; If he does not come, he will not go "not afraid of poverty", but he will bump into his door every day, as promised.
I met more than a dozen times in a row, and the compassion of "being poor and not afraid" moved a little.
When he turned around, he followed him, walked to a secluded place, stopped and asked, "Grandma, why are you kneeling at the door of the house and kowtowing?"
Tell me what kind of bitterness you have. "When the woman was in sorrow, she heard a call from behind, and she was eager to stand and tell her, and wait for someone to take her place; And when he turned his head, he saw that it was a man, and there was a mouth that spoke to him? With a snort, he walked forward.
"Poor are not afraid" is not good to ask again, so I have to go back with him, see where he lives, and then make plans. After following many roads to a deserted village, the woman went into a thatched hut, bolted the door, and began to weep aloud.
After crying for a while, a woman next door persuaded him: "Aunt Zhou, don't cry, your eldest sister can't take it, so you have to save some footsteps and don't go away in the future." The woman said, "I can't get enough money, and my power is no match for him, can't I kill a daughter alive in his house?" I have to kowtow every day, and if I ask my daughter to come in, I should beg him; If you can't please anyone, you should curse him. See how he sends me down? "Poor are not afraid" before asking, seeing him kowtow all day long, I am afraid that it will be an unresolved knot; When I followed to the door, I heard the word "silver" spoken, and my heart was half wider, and the ingots on my waist seemed to be moving. He knocked on the woman's door a few times and said, "Aunt Zhou, the one who sent her daughter is here, open the door quickly." When the woman heard this, she was surprised and delighted, and said that it was indeed the eunuch's butler who had brought her daughter to the door, and even the woman next door rejoiced for him, and everyone came out to greet her. Whoever wants to open the door and take a look, it is the nosy and nosy man.
The woman snorted again, "Wicked soul, poor and hungry ghost, why don't you beg for your waterlogged food, but just follow me?" Where is my daughter? Why do you knock on doors and deceive people? "Poor are not afraid" said: "Don't be annoyed, my son is different from other people, I share the worries and burdens for others, I see you kowtowing at the door of others every day, after all, what is wronged, so I followed and asked you." Whoever thinks you won't reply, I have to come back with you and watch its movements. I just heard this lady persuade you, you said that the power is not enough for him, and the money cannot be set up. Say, if you have money, you will get a man out. May I ask if your love is sold to him, and when it is with him? Please tell me that I will take care of you. The woman smiled and said, "So powerful, so big-skinned, I don't know how many rich people and nobles in Gaoyang City, I have told them all, and I have never seen any use." You are a beggar for food, you can't support your own life, and you have to do things for others, isn't it the strength to work hard? "Poor are not afraid" said: "Speaking of which, the eldest lady is on the left." Is there a rich man in the world who is willing to give money for others, and a noble man who is willing to do justice for others? If you want to give money and preach justice, unless you are among the poor and lowly, or there are a few more. I, the person who is called Huahua, just because I am extremely poor and low, I don't want to be a rich man, and I don't want to be a minister, so I am willing to substitute some money for others and speak some justice. But you say, as long as the silver is obtained and the person is out, it is enough to give you a love, so why do you need to call me Huahua or not. The woman still refused to believe it, but said that she was a flamboyant flower, and she wanted to deceive him about tea and dinner, and let him question him, and never spoke again.
The woman next door said: "Aunt Zhou, you are also stubborn, although he is a person who is called Huahua, it is difficult for him to be kind, so it is okay to tell him, what does it cost you?" But the woman had no choice but to tell her, "My daughter is sixteen years old." Three years ago, my husband died, and there was no one to rely on, and there were a few bachelors in the place, and when they saw that my daughter was born with beautiful eyebrows, they had a bad heart, and they came up with a trick for no reason, saying that my husband had promised him his daughter in Japan, and wanted to take his daughter-in-law for nothing. When he saw that I would not do so, he wanted to file a complaint. The eunuch didn't know where to go, so he taught the housekeeper to come and say to me, 'My lord is very dissatisfied when he hears that the local bachelor wants to take your daughter for nothing, and he wants to stand up for you. If you are willing to pretend to write a deed of sale, and only say that it will be sold to my master, they will naturally break off their delusions. If I come to talk to you again, I will wait for my lord to take a post and send it to the county, for fear that he will not break his tendons. After things are settled, take a break for a year and a half, hand over your daughter to you, and find a good family to marry. When I heard these words, I only said that it was really a good intention, so I wrote a deed of sale, filled in the false price of thirty taels, and sent my daughter to his house. He also kowtowed many times to thank him for his kindness. Since it was sent, the local bachelors have really broken their delusions and dare not do anything in advance. Now that three years have passed, right and wrong have ended, and my daughter is older, I want to bring him back and recruit a son-in-law to support the elderly. Who would have thought that the eunuch had a bad heart and wanted to accept my daughter as a school, I knew that I fell into a trap and couldn't jump out, so I had to obey him. And who would have thought that the eunuch's wife, the first jealous woman in Gaoyang City, heard that her husband wanted to take my daughter, so she wiped out my daughter in every way, and made a rule, that she should be whipped a hundred times a day, and I would go to collect it, and when I went to collect it, the eunuch would not give it away, and said: 'If you want to take it, you must take the money on the deed of sale, one book and one profit, and it must be clear, and I will only send people here; If it's a penny less, don't think about it. 'Now I want to redeem, and I don't have the money; If he still doesn't redeem it, his daughter can't eat and beat, so he has to kowtow every day, hoping that he won't go, or I don't know if he will return his daughter. Who wants to mourn for dozens of days, and his head has kowtowed to tens of thousands, he completely ignores it. Yesterday, my daughter sent a letter out, saying that his leather whip had been beaten tens of thousands, and there was not an inch of muscle in his body that was not purple, and not an inch was not rotten, and he could not stand the beating again. To redeem or not to redeem, teach me to send a reply to him. If the redemption is successful, boil a few more meals; If he can't redeem it, he will wait for him to die. You say such a thing, teach me whether to be bitter or not, whether to be in a hurry? After saying that, he burst into tears again.
"Poor are not afraid" said: "Don't cry, auntie, and discuss business." May I ask how much silver does this Ling Ai have to eat before he can redeem it? The woman said, "He has already said it, and it will be one book and one profit according to the original deed." I didn't get a cent from him at the beginning, but I didn't write this false deed. Now, if you want to redeem it, you must get thirty taels of capital and thirty taels of interest, a total of sixty taels and send it in, before you can receive it. Now don't say sixty, it's six taels, six dollars, and there is no piling, teach me how to deal with it? "Poor are not afraid" said: "He said this, is it necessary to do this?" The woman said, "He is so loving that he is reluctant to give it back, and he knows that I have no money, so he makes it difficult for me." I had sixty taels to send, and I was afraid that he would not want to, and I would have to say something else; If there is still one or five coins missing, he can't count them in full, but he is famous, and naturally he can't redeem it. "Poor are not afraid" said: "Just these, it's not difficult, I have an ingots here, it's easy to make up less than ten taels." It's just one piece, this ingots are a great benefactor who gave me my life, I want to give them to you, that is, to save people from the well, in case you can't call it, you still starve to death, and you will live up to his grand intentions. I have to do good deeds, and I have to live my life, and I tell you honestly, among these sixty taels, I have to help you half, and I will give birth to a way for you to come out of that half, and you will not only be three or five days later, and your daughter will enter the door. The woman said, "What is the way to give birth?" "Poverty is not afraid" said: "Everyone is willing to do the things that are blessed in the world, but I am afraid that there is no one who advocates it." I am helping you thirty taels now, and if you want someone to help you for those thirty taels, you can't do it. If you pay back one, two, two, three, five dollars, no matter how many or too little, gather together.
It's easy to think about. Now you are like a fate, make a booklet, and I will write your own tone as an introduction to help, and write it in front. I started by writing that people see me as a beggar and help you with thirty taels, don't those who have dignity and wealth help you a few taels? If you can't do one, you go to each house and write it, and you can't think of three or five days, and you can count it. The woman said, "Something that is less is more, or it can be done." It's just that you are a poor person, how can you be tired of half of it? "Poor are not afraid" said: "My silver is used to giving away, don't you feel pain for me, just try to get up quickly." "I touched a few copper coins first, went to buy a rough-edged post, his pen inkstone is often with me, take it out, write an introduction for him: to help the widow Zhoumen a certain family, the early death of the husband, stop giving birth to a daughter, to the funeral husband, sold to the eunuch for a certain master as a maid, the value of 30 taels of silver is real. Now because the family is old and has no children, Sang Yu can't rely on. A certain old man took pity on the widow and promised to redeem it at a price, and his son-in-law provided for the elderly. Poor and destitute women, who have no money and no money, how can they do it? I would like to inform the righteous people of the Quartet, the three parties and their relatives, each with their own hearts, and share the Buddha's hand, or lose half of the money, or lose the capital of a meal, cut the little into the much, and participate in the righteous deed. The day when the children and mothers all return is the period of eternal reunion of mothers and children.
Two days of derby, Entong rebuilt. For those who are beneficial, please list the names on the left.
When he had finished writing, he read it aloud and listened to it with the woman. Then he picked up the pen, and the big book said: The well-known beggar at home and abroad is "not afraid of poverty", and he helps to redeem the female silver three or two.
When he had finished writing, he put in another flower and handed it to the woman. The woman took it, and there were still some doubts in her heart, saying that he was a man called Hua, and that he had this great amount of money, and that he was afraid that he would be lying in the air, and her mouth was happy, and between her face and her actions, she was not very enthusiastic.
"Poor and not afraid" knew what he meant, so he took out the ingots in a rag bag, put it in front of the woman and said: "Don't be suspicious, Auntie, this thing is not made of copper and tin, and the eunuchs are used to it, so he will naturally recognize it." It's just that it takes a lot of effort to chisel him, so it's better to hand it over to you, and you will help me tomorrow with the silver, and return me twenty taels, and this ingots will not be moved, and you can send it to you. When the woman saw this thing, she began to dance with her hands, and thousands of "benefactors" and "good people" could not thank her. Even the woman next door recited "Amitabha" to him a few times. "Poor is not afraid" to hand over the ingots to him, and he still goes to call for it.
The woman took the post and went from house to house with all the rich man's relatives, and went from house to house with all those who had a side with her husband. Just say that with a big mind, not afraid of no small help, is it not possible for a rich man in a county to be called a child? Rest assured to ask for help. Who thinks about the things of the world, no matter how unpredictable.
At first, he only said the word "called" and plugged everyone's mouths, but his own words were reasonable, so that he couldn't come back. The beggar is still helping me, what kind of man is he, willing to say that I am not as good as a beggar, lest I be embarrassed, and he will definitely take action. Whoever wants to be plugged by the word "called" in his own mouth, he is justified by him, and he can't come back. As the saying goes: If you don't have money to buy eggplant, you only push the old.
For the people's original intention was not to save it. If there is no big word in the front, it is inconvenient to reply to him directly, so I have to say that when others write it, come to see me again, and make a delaying plan.
Just because of the honorific name of "not afraid of poverty", written at the head of the fate book, everyone saw it, and they all took the three words "poor and not afraid" as a reply, saying: "You write the name of Huazi in the front, teach us to write it in the back, and obviously say that I am a person who is not as good as Huazi."
Since it is better to call it Hua, then there is silver to help you? If we still write twenty-nine taels, it is also a confession that is not as good as calling Hua, how to make it? Now that you have this called Hua Tanyue, you just need to find another person called Hua Shi to write the second line, and you will redeem your daughter, why do you need to ask everyone? Some of them were good friends and relatives of his husband, and the money did not give him money, but he would rebuke others with righteousness, saying, "A widow should be more disciplined, and should not allow those who are idle to go about at home." How can you get thirty taels of silver to be a child, I'm afraid that the origin is also a little unknown. He is related to you, why is he willing to help you with this money for no reason? I'm afraid that the name is also a little indecent. The woman was so ashamed of what he said that she could not say anything. When he returned home, he sat sullenly for a long time, thinking that his daughter would not be able to redeem him, and he would have to wait for the "poor and not afraid" to return the ingots to him. On the fifth and sixth days, "not afraid of poverty" came to the door and asked if the thirty taels of silver had been found. The woman wept at him three times with tears and four with snot, and then replied.
"Poor are not afraid" did not wait for him to finish speaking, and then intercepted and said: "This is what you say, there are no more points." Anyway, one guest and two masters, this is better than that, wait for me to finish it. That ingots are fifty taels, and I have begged for a few strings of copper coins in the past few days, all of which have been exchanged for silver here, and there are eight or nine taels, and I can't count them enough. I have a gold ring on my hand, which was given to me by a righteous girl to quit wandering. I can't stop wasting now, and I didn't do anything if I wanted him, so I just put it in it and made up enough of it. Then he took out the silver, took down the ring, and handed it over, and urged him to redeem his daughter, and said goodbye to himself, and made an appointment to come tomorrow to congratulate him.
The woman took the money and went to the door of the eunuch, but the stewards only said that he would go in and let him in. The woman showed him the ingots and the silver and gold, and said, "Come for the ransom of the woman." The family believed it, so they let him in.
When the woman saw the eunuch and kowtowed a few times, she took her own price and set it before him, and begged him to pay for it. The eunuch took a closer look at the ingots and rings, and asked him where he came from, and the woman said, "The rich man gave it to me." The eunuch hesitated for a moment, and then paid him and said, "I have something to do today, and I don't have time to redeem the silver, so I will collect it here and redeem it tomorrow." β
The woman did not dare to disobey, so she had to go away.
In the early morning of the second day, "not afraid of poverty" went to the woman's house and asked him if his daughter had been redeemed. "Poor and not afraid" was about to go out, and he didn't want a few strong men to rush into the door like wolves, take an iron chain, lock him at one end, lock the woman at one end, and Rong Fen said, and led him out.
"The poor are not afraid" asks what is the reason, and the people should not; When the woman asked what the reason was, they ignored her. It was taken to Gaoyang County and locked up in an empty house. "Poor are not afraid" and the woman knelt on the ground and begged him to tell him why he had taken the lock.
Those healthy men said: "The robbery of money and food has happened, don't you understand what you are doing, and you still want to ask me?" "Poor are not afraid" and the woman looked at each other, and I don't know where to talk about it. After a few more questions, the sturdy men raised their iron rulers and wanted to knock them down.
"Poor are not afraid" and the woman did not dare to speak, so they had to work diligently, shaking and shrinking in the corner of the house, waiting for the hair to fall.
Judge, what is the reason for this? It was only because the squire saw the ingots that day that he was suspicious, saying that he had never had the money and grain of the government, so he poured the ingots, and the money of the rich man's house was only five taels and one ingots, ten taels and one ingots. If the person who called Huahua did not rob and rob, where did this thing come from? There is another red gold ring in it, and it is obvious that he is in estrus. Moreover, there are small characters on both sides of the ingots, and the eunuch is an elderly person, his eyes are not good, and he has never worn glasses, so he sent the woman back, one to take a closer look at the ingots, and the other to study the origin. When the woman had gone, she went down to the sun, put on her glasses, and looked closely, and saw on one side the name of the household, and on the other the name of the silversmith.
It turned out that the solution and the silversmith were from Gaoyang County, half a year ago, Gaoyang County released a piece of money and grain into Beijing, and met a ringing horse on the road, and robbed it cleanly.
Tired of the family to go bankrupt, from the new compensation of the silver poured into the ingots, to solve the capital to go to Beijing, in order to save the life of the family. This major event is known to everyone in the county, how can the eunuchs not smell it? Now when I read these two lines of small words, I can't help but laugh out loud. Then he took a sedan chair to Baizhi County, and said the words that he visited the robber on his behalf and took the real stolen goods. Take out the ingots and pay them to the county magistrate for personal inspection. When the magistrate saw it, he thanked him and sent the squire back, so he sent the leader of the arrest into the yamen to pay for it, telling him to catch it with his heart and not to be neglected, so he was "not afraid of poverty" and the woman suffered this catastrophe.
When the magistrate of the county ascended to the court, he quickly brought it in, but he didn't know that the county had tried the woman first, and asked him where the stolen goods came from? Women are rarely allowed to tell their true feelings, and they are pushed to "be poor and not afraid". "Poor and not afraid" did not wait for the county to torture, so he said, "The ingots, gold and silver were all given to him by the beggar, and the origin should be examined, and the beggar should only be asked, and he should not do this woman's business." Zhixian said: "If you bring the plot of robbing money and grain, you will not be able to use torture tools." β
"Poor are not afraid" said: "One foot of the sky, one foot of land, the beggar has not robbed any money and food."
This ingots belong to a prostitute and beggar in Taiyuan City. This ring was also given to a beggar by a prostitute in Taiyuan City. These pieces of silver were exchanged for copper coins by beggars. There is evidence, and there is no unknown origin, ask the master to check. Seeing that he didn't move, the magistrate slapped the angry chess and paid the forbidden son: "Quickly clip it up!" ""Poor are not afraid" Although he has fought a few lawsuits on weekdays, they are all matters of public promotion and redress of grievances on behalf of the public, and he has the upper hand and watches others play boards and clamp sticks, how can he ever be punished like this? I pinched a stick, and there was no word. The magistrate paid the forbidden son again: "Heavy knock!" Even knocked on hundreds of sticks, "poor are not afraid" can not be refined, knowing that the move is also death, not recruiting is also death, recruiting and dying late, not recruiting but dying quickly, Shi De said nonsense: "Don't clip it again, wait for the small one to say it." I robbed this money and grain on a certain road, just for prostitution and gambling, and I used it up, and I only kept this ingot, which was the real fact, and there was no excuse for the death penalty. Zhixian said: "Robbing money and grain, you are not alone, there must be a few partners; Don't send stolen goods, never in this place, there must be a few nests. Hurry up, or I'll have to clip it! "Poor are not afraid" said: "The small one has the greatest strength, the highest ability, he is a robber in his life, and he no longer needs helpers, he is robbed alone; When I go to a place, I only take the name of a beggar and walk the neighborhood every day and stay in the temple at night, and there is no nest home. Zhixian said: "You just said that the ingots are given to you by the prostitute, and the ring is given to you by the prostitute, so it seems that the prostitute is the partner, and the prostitute is the nest family, why don't you recruit it?" "Poor are not afraid" said: "Those are all words, in fact, I have never met any prostitutes, what prostitutes I get along with, and I dare not ask the good people to be examined." The magistrate said: "The theft is not a one-time trial, and the woman is asked for bail, and the robber is sent to prison for another day." Immediately, several notices were issued in the punishment room, and the four doors were hung: The main hall of Gaoyang County said: According to the county's release of a certain amount of money and grain into Beijing in a certain month of this year, it was robbed on the way, causing the county to donate money and compensation, and the person was not found for a long time. Suddenly, today's network is not sparse, and the thief is "not afraid of poverty" with the original stolen goods, sneaking into the territory, fortunately, a certain squire visited the secret head, and the county was seized and tried. The thief "is not afraid of poverty" has been convicted and imprisoned, and he will be executed in detail. However, the county has lost a lot of money and grain, and now it has obtained an ingot; There are many bandit henchmen, and now they have been "not afraid of poverty". The thief is coming, and the party is with him. In addition to the arrest and arrest on the one hand, there is still a local township security, and the house is strictly investigated, but if there are suspicious people and things of unknown origin, they will be secretly reported so that they can be detained; If there is any indulgence and other circumstances, the incident will be sitting. Protect your wealth and don't regret it. Specified.
The notice was hung for a month, but no one was found to be the head of the thief party, and the remaining stolen goods were seized.
Suddenly, one day, "the poor are not afraid" was eating in prison, and a messenger outside came in with a red ticket and wanted to take him out.
"Poor and not afraid" saw Zhu Piao, and was so frightened that the three souls went to the ground and the seven spirits ascended to heaven, and only said that he would be executed, with tears in his eyes, and went out with the messenger. Walked to the foot of the Danqi, knelt down, raised his head, and saw that there were three official mansions sitting on it, all of which were unrecognizable. Two prisoners were locked up on the pillars on either side.
Take a closer look, who thinks that the one on the left is the magistrate of this county, the person who convicted him of death the day before yesterday; The one on the right is the squire of the department, the one who opposed him the day before yesterday and made him the first to become an official. Even the innocent woman who was involved was brought up and knelt below; There was also a woman of fifteen or sixteen years of age, kneeling beside her, her hair uncombed, her face unwashed, and her face was marked with blood, but she looked like she had been bruised.
"Poor are not afraid" saw it, knowing that it was the woman's daughter, but I don't know what to do in one place, what kind of official mansion are the three people sitting on it, could it be that the emperor of the three officials suddenly showed his magical powers, and knew that my matter was wronged, and the blue sky and white sun showed his true form, and it was in vain to avenge others? I saw that after kneeling for a while, an official on the right sang the names of the magistrate, the squire and the prisoners below, and even handed them over to the two on the left. The two on the left received the papers, and they divided the money among the people who followed them, and escorted them up. I also got on the horse, and stayed with him all the way, but I don't know where to take it.
It wasn't until he walked for three days that he was "not afraid of poverty" and asked the people carefully, and then he told the reason: it turned out that the saint knew that there was such a big injustice in Gaoyang County, and he sent two lieutenants to arrest the county magistrate and the squire, and brought a prisoner to Beijing, and he wanted to send it down in person. The roll call to dismiss the official mansion was given by the court, and he was ordered by the Holy Decree to assist him.
"Poor and not afraid" knows the reason, but it is like a few or seven years old and reincarnated, where I like it! But I don't know if the emperor is sitting in the deep palace, how can he know about the outside world? Even if someone says that he has entered it, he should only be sent to this department to be re-tried and punished, and my capital crime will be exceeded. Why did the emperor himself become an official and judge the matter for the son? I was suspicious all the way to Beijing, and I didn't understand it anymore.
When it came to Beijing, the school captain Qi played the emperor and said: "Gao Yang and his convicts have been solved. "The emperor really sat in the palace and personally studied it. First called the magistrate up and asked him, "How can this beggar be a robber?" How can this ingots be real stolen goods? Why do you condemn innocent people to death without trial? β
The magistrate said: "The existing stolen ingots in the hands of this criminal can be relied upon, and the names of the Xie Hu and the silversmith on the ingots can be relied upon." Moreover, at the time of the trial, the prisoner confessed to himself, saying that the robbery of grain and silver was true, and the offender was condemned to death, so how could he dare to harm the innocent? The emperor called the eunuch up again and asked him, "Why don't you pay a penny of money and want to occupy the children of the good family for nothing?" There is no impact at all, and you want to frame the innocent and good people? What enmity does this beggar have against you that he will be put to death? The eunuch said: "Mingzhong Red Deed, buy someone as a maid, how dare you take your children for nothing?" is a real criminal, how dare he be innocent? The prisoners robbed money and grain for him, harmed the people and misled the country, and for the sake of the people in the court, so he came from the public, but in fact he had no personal enmity with him. Then the emperor called the woman up and asked him, "Why is this beggar willing to help you with an ingot? The woman said: "The prisoner only because her daughter was occupied, knelt in front of the eunuch and kowtowed all day long. At first, he was only willing to help half of me, and he wanted to save half of his life, for fear that he would starve to death and fail the people who saved him; Later, when he saw that the rich man of the city refused to help, he couldn't see it, so he became a Changhan and didn't leave a penny. The convict has been widowed for many years, and there is no intemperance. is about to lose his temperament, why don't you get along with a good person, but you have adultery with the caller? After the emperor finished interrogating everyone, he called "not afraid of poverty". "Poor are not afraid" prostrate on the ground, not daring to raise his head.
The emperor asked him: "'Poor are not afraid', your ingots and that ring, are they really robbed, or are they from someone else and yours?" Straight as it is, you can't protect it. "Poor are not afraid" said: "Long live the lord, although the 'poor are not afraid' is a beggar, he is also a person with some integrity and integrity, how can he do things that violate the law?" The ingot, in fact, is a prostitute in Taiyuan City, seeing that the beggar is a man who is squandering money and fighting righteousness, almost starving to death, and giving the beggar as the capital, the ring, is a prostitute in Taiyuan City, who has received the favor of the beggar, and saw that the prostitute gave this silver, I am afraid that the beggar will not be able to keep it, and he will give it to others, so he takes the beggar in his hand and uses it to quit the waves. There is a well-founded basis, not from an unknown origin, and I ask for a long live to be extraordinary. The emperor said, "In this way, even if you have not robbed, or the prostitute has robbed it, you don't know." When the magistrate clamps you, why did you recruit him? Summoning him will be free of your capital sin. "Poor are not afraid" said: "That prostitute is born with big ears, he is really a bit blessed, he is definitely not a thief, how can he be a thief by the people?" If he was robbed, and he kindly gave me money, and I didn't repay my kindness, how could I bring him out and teach him to answer for me? Therefore, it is better to die by oneself than to pull others at the mercy. The emperor said: "In this way, you are really a good man, no wonder the people of the road praise you one by one." If you meet that prostitute now, do you still recognize him? "Poor are not afraid" said: "He is a great benefactor of beggars, he always cares about it, that is, in his sleep, but he is like standing in front of him, he can't wait to buy a piece of agarwood, carve him a look, burn incense and worship all day long, how can he forget." β
The emperor said: "You just said that he was born with big ears and some blessings, I don't know if he is born with a widow or which one is born neatly?" Let you lift up your head and look at each other. "Or is it the one that is neatly born? I give you to raise your head, take a closer look at the emperor's face, don't feel the fuss, stretch your head and shrink your neck, you have something in your heart, and you don't dare to say it. The emperor said: "Look at your situation, isn't it a widow's appearance, which is somewhat similar to him?" "Poor are not afraid" put his tongue in his mouth, tried a few times, and then agreed: "Yes, his face is really similar to Long Yan." The emperor smiled and said: "If it is not similar, you are now executed in prison by the eunuchs of mediocre officials, and you will not come here." To tell you honestly, the prostitute who gave you ingots is a widow. The widow only wants to visit the pros and cons of the people, so he goes out of the palace privately. I traveled to Taiyuan by chance and stayed at the house of the prostitute Liu for a few days, but it was difficult to say the name. Even the prostitute Liu only said that I was a distant guest, and I didn't know that it was the current Emperor Zhengde. That day, I didn't carelessly, I didn't check, I gave you that ingot, and then I thought about it, I was really afraid of you, how could there be a person who called the transformation to bring the ingot, and didn't make a reason? Later, when I swam to Gaoyang, I saw Zhang Zhang's notice, and I knew that you had really made trouble. The widow lived in the land for another day, and examined the cause of your victimhood in his belly, and then entered the king.
After entering Beijing, I will send someone to rescue you. Now that you have been wronged, and you have been freed from the disaster, the benefits of 'not being afraid of poverty' are known to the world, and I advise you to do less dangerous things in the future, save your life, and eat enough for a few years. After saying these words, he called the magistrate and the township eunuch together. said to the magistrate: "The people who owe you as an official don't know some of the people's feelings, and some officials don't know about the evils." If he is indeed a robber, how can he bring the stolen goods of robbery elsewhere when the silver he has robbed here should have been transported elsewhere? You said that there is a name on the ingot, but after you rob it, is it that the ingots that have been newly interpreted have no name? The widow sent it everywhere to use it, could it not be robbed?
It is not too late to say that if something is suspicious, it should also be investigated and secretly visited, and only after it is true that the torture instruments will be used and the capital crime will be convicted. Why don't you use the stick no matter what is good or bad? Don't ask about the truth and the truth, just the canonical punishment? Asking people for a capital crime was not only a capital crime, but he also put a stick on his foot and told him to harm the good people. It's a shame that he was really righteous and refused to summon people who sent ingots; If you also name and say the den, even the widow will be your prisoner. This matter is confused, I don't know how many people you died when you were an official in the past! After speaking, he was sent to the brocade guard, beaten forty sticks, and cut his post to the people, thinking that it was an unjust and unknown ring.
He also said to the eunuch: "You are a eunuch, you have also been an official and managed the people, why do you want to take advantage of people's children and unjust the good people?" Living in the countryside is like this, and you can know it as an official on weekdays.
Your sins are as heavy as those of a magistrate, and they have not spoken much to pay you. "Sent to the Criminal Department, immediately beheaded, for the precept of abusing the people.
All these prisoners were gone, but the woman's daughter knelt before the royal highness of Jin Luan, and she did not scream. When the emperor looked up and saw it, he called the woman to come up. This daughter was originally twelve points beautiful, but at first she was worn out by the jealous woman, so she was unkempt and did not look like a human form; Now that I have left the jealous woman, I have not eaten the leather whip for more than ten days, and the blood marks on my face have disappeared, and I am a little red and white, and I walk in front of the emperor, and there is a kind of grace.
The emperor looked at him from head to toe, and said to "not afraid of poverty": "The widow knows that you have no wife, look at this woman is blessed, you have suffered all kinds of hardships for him alone, if you don't match him with you, and teach him to marry which one?" It's the widow who is the matchmaker to achieve your good deed. When he had said this, he taught him and his wife to worship in the temple of Jinluan.
After worshipping, he said to "not afraid of poverty": "You are such a good person, don't say that there is no second among the beggars, even if you can't find it in your clothes." When the widow sees these benefits, how can he not promote the inhabitants? Now you have to pay the ministry and teach him to make up for you as an important official and do some good things for the people, which is better than fighting for righteousness and squandering wealth among beggars. β
"Poor are not afraid" kowtowed: "Long live above, other rewards for the subjects only take thanks, but this matter does not dare to serve the edict." Clothing is the name of the court, how can it be given to beggars? β
The minister has been called for ten years, and his footprints are all over the world, who doesn't know that 'poor are not afraid' is a famous beggar! Once the crown is tied and stands between the gentry, so that people can see it, regard the crown as a filthy vessel, and wait for a lot of money to be left in the scraps, not to say that the virtuous and foolish are not equal to the middle, but only to say that the court is not distinguished between the noble and the low. In case the wise men and gentlemen all hang up their crowns and escape, who will live the world with everyone? Could it be that it is impossible to ask the ministers to lead some so-called sons to do things for the court? Therefore, I dare not give an edict to this matter. The emperor saw that he was right, although he was not strong, after all, he couldn't lose him in his heart, hesitated for a while, and said to him: "It is also your benefit if you refuse to be an official, and I don't have a reward for you now." The prostitute Liu has entered the palace with the widow and is now worshipping the position of the concubine. You were a sister to him at the beginning, so I gave you the surname Liu, so that the different surnames were the same clan, and you were made a relative of the emperor? "Poor are not afraid" thought for a while, and then agreed: "Although the emperor's relatives are honorable, there are still officials without positions, which is different from the rule of the people. Since the ancient road, 'the emperor also has straw sandals', and it is okay to be low, and the ministers will be edicted. "I thanked the emperor for his grace that day and returned to my apartment to marry the Zhou family.
The Manchu Dynasty civil and military saw that he had been crowned an imperial prince, which one didn't come to celebrate? Later, the emperor's favor was long, and the reward was very generous, and he gave him a house to live in the imperial city, which was glorious and rich, and he couldn't enjoy it.
At first, I was not afraid of being poor, but then I was too rich, but I was a little afraid. I am afraid that my life will be light and blessed, and I can't bear it, and I will give birth to unexpected disasters and cause extraordinary disasters, so I see people who are blindly humble and dare not be presumptuous. The Chinese military officials of the DPRK called him "old man", and he called others, regardless of dignity or inferiority, "old man" to the end, and called himself "villain".
Since becoming a royal prince, he often pretends to be a child, goes out for private trips, and visits the pros and cons of the people. Whenever there is something to benefit and eliminate harm, go to the palace and say it, and persuade the emperor to do it. Later, he gave birth to three sons, all of whom were prominent officials. He lived to be eighty-eight years old.
This is the first alien in the world, the first miracle. When the officials saw it, they had to borrow him to give warning, and they must not also use the word "called" as a protection, saying that the beggar I disdain to learn from him, but do what the beggar does not do.
