Text Chapter 299: Extreme Eyes Chutian (2)
The majestic Jingzhou City displayed in front of Zhu Zhihan's eyes was rebuilt on the old city foundation of the Song Dynasty during the reign of Taizu Hongwu.
Jingzhou city chronicles record: the city wall is 18 miles 381 steps, 2 zhang 6 feet 5 inches high, there are four land gates in the southeast and northwest, and three water gates (one was silted to death by the big water in the Qing Dynasty). There are urn cities at the land gates, and there are curved walls at the water gates, forming a heavy city; Both the main gate and the urn city have tall gate towers or arrow towers, and there are enemy towers and caves on the city walls. If you look at the time of its construction, Jingzhou City is an out-and-out thousand-year-old city; In terms of its scale and solidity, Jingzhou City is one of the largest cities in Huguang.
How could such a thousand-year-old city fall so easily? Zhu Zhihan couldn't figure it out anyway. Could it be that the Jingzhou city of the Ming Dynasty also harmed Guan Yunchang's rebel general Mi Fang? Could it be that the thieves would also rush into Jingzhou City by boat from the Water Gate?
Zhu Zhihan worked hard to deduce the whole process of the fall of Jingzhou in his head. The prince Zhu Pingjin only told him in no uncertain terms that this Jingzhou city would soon be captured by thieves, the clan was killed, and the people were driven away, like the many fortified cities of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the Shu Wangfu should be laid out in Jingzhou, so that more people and silver have the opportunity to flee to Sichuan.
Zhu Zhihan stared at Jingzhou City in a daze with chaotic thoughts, until the noisy sound on the dock re-entered his ear drums. He glanced around, and Lu San beside him was also staring at the city in a daze.
Zhu Zhihan patted Lu San and brought him back to his senses: "Lu Tou, you and Vice Premier Chongwen have been to Renshou County after the catastrophe. Say, "How did the thief attack the city?" ”
Lu San was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "It's still a ladder to climb the city!" The city and the city are full of dead people! There are broken ladders all over the city! ”
Zhu Zhihan muttered to himself: "The city wall of Jingzhou is so high, and the moat is so wide, how can you climb the ladder of the city three or four feet?" One by one, the people under the city climbed up to the top of the city, and they were stabbed down one by one by the spears on the top of the city. You come and go like this, I don't know how many people will die! ”
"Oh, the contemptible remembered!" Lu San patted his head and smiled: "The north gate of Renshou was blown open by gunpowder. Where is there an urn city in Renshou County? The government used earthen bags and baskets to block the hole in the city gate, but unfortunately it was not blocked, and the thieves poured in......"
"No wonder!" Zhu Zhihan finally got the hang of it: "Now the war is different from the Three Kingdoms, all of which are swords and guns, flooded and attacked. The thieves will blow up the city with gunpowder......"
……
Zhu Zhihan was talking with Lu San about the past and the present on the embankment, when a thin man with short brown cloth clothes and a green cloth towel walked towards Zhu Zhihan and his party. He was stopped at the bottom of the embankment by Lu San's dart masters, so he stopped, and asked the dart masters with a shy smile where he was going. He had two carts that could take the nobles where they wanted to go.
Zhu Zhihan was condescending and saw this scene clearly. He mouthed at Lu Sannunu, and Lu San went down the embankment and asked, "Do you know how to go to the Liao Palace?" ”
"Listen to your accent, are you from Sichuan?" When the coachman heard that it was a foreigner, he suddenly felt that there was a joke, and hurriedly agreed, "North Gate Liao Wangfu, right?" The little home is there, and it's very familiar! It's just that it's no longer the Liao Palace. King Hui was sealed to Jingzhou, and the emperor gave all the Liao King Zhuangtian Mansion to King Hui and changed it to King Hui's Mansion! ”
"Then the Liao King's lineage must have a sect principle! It's also a heavenly home! Lu San asked.
"Now it's King Luster who is in charge of the affairs of the house!" The coachman replied loudly, "Your Excellency is going to visit the King of Luster?" The small road is also familiar, not far from the Liao Wangfu! ”
Zhu Zhihan listened and felt that this coachman was very familiar with the Jingzhou Clan's mansion, so he nodded at Lu San. Lu San responded, the two negotiated the price, and soon the coachman drove two carriages over.
In front was a carriage, with a satin canopy, but the silk surface was shabby, and there were several patches. Perhaps not long ago, I was in a wedding car, and a pair of blackened red silk knots hung in front of the canopy. An old horse-drawn carriage with sparse and scattered mane on the back of its neck, as if it was about to fall off. The carriage was followed by a large cart, which was even more dilapidated. It is not even a horse that pulls a cart, but a donkey.
It seems that this is the car entering the city, Zhu Zhihan frowned. When the two feudal clans intersected, they came to visit in this dilapidated carriage and donkey cart?
Seeing that Zhu Zhihan was standing still, the coachman oozed hesitation between his eyebrows, and hurriedly urged: "The car has been swept this morning, and it is clean!" Please get on the bus quickly, the big east gate called Hanako again. If you are surrounded by them, you will be in great trouble! They didn't get the copper, and they didn't leave! ”
Sure enough, when Zhu Zhihan looked up, he saw that dozens of old and lame people named Huazi had already flocked to him with broken bowls and dog-beating sticks. He shouted to walk around, but it was too late. He ran to the side of the car and called the flowers to surround them and their group, and stretched out the broken bowls one by one: Uncle, son, have a good heart, enjoy eating!
Zhu Zhihan was at a loss, but the old Jianghu Lu San was calm. He laughed, pulling out the horizontal flesh on his face, tangling the smile with the coldness, which made people shudder. He slowly took the nine-ring broadsword on his back into his hand, and untied the red silk wrapped around the knife layer by layer, revealing a wide and bright knife surface and nine yellow and clear copper rings that could be slid back and forth (Note 1).
The brass rings collided with each other with a crisp thumping sound, like the cry of a ghost.
The Hanako who asked for food were all trembling, but no one shrank back. A little screamer even relied on his short stature to get out from under the wheel and lift the black rotten pottery bowl to Lu San's chest.
"When you get off the boat, you will be robbed, just to let the contemptible big knife open the meat!" Lu San laughed, his face becoming more and more distorted. He picked up the head of the knife with the crook of his arm and took a posture of opening the knife and slashing.
Before entering the city, kill first. This is not in line with the mission of the feudal domain! Zhu Zhihan noticed that the situation was not good, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop Lu San: "Each person will be rewarded with ten coppers, let them buy a few baked cakes to satisfy their hunger!" ”
"Childe, you can't be soft-hearted! Just give a copper, and you don't want to get out today! "The coachman is in a hurry. As he spoke, he pointed to the Great East Gate so that Zhu Zhihan could see it clearly. From the city gate here, there are more people named Hanako who are observing the situation. As soon as there is a harvest here, it is necessary to rush to it immediately.
"Ten coppers for one man, ten taels of silver, and he went out!" Lu San bowed his chin to Zhu Zhihan sadly. When they came out, they didn't receive much. When they go out with a lot of money, their food, drink, and accommodation will be downgraded. As for finding a woman at night, it is also necessary to downgrade.
Zhu Zhihan stood stunned for a moment and shook his head firmly.
"No! The people of Huguang, although they are not the people of the Shu Domain, are also the sons of the Ming Dynasty! ”
As he spoke, he took out a silver bill from his sleeve, picked it up and shook it: "Remember, what does the prince want?" What you want is to protect the country and the people, and the world is peaceful! The country called here is not the country of the Shu Domain, but the country of the Ming Dynasty! I waited until I arrived in Huguang, not just to do business. We want to broadcast Shu Fan Deze! Lu Tou, ten coppers per person, a lot! ”
Seeing that the son was resolute, Lu San had no choice but to accept the knife and order his subordinates to distribute money. The flowers cheered loudly and went around the bodyguard who gave out the money.
The little boy turned into a prostrate man on the ground and kowtowed to Zhu Zhihan and said, "I wish the son a long life and a hundred years old, and the children and grandchildren are full!" Rich and noble, prince and prince! ”
At this time, Zhu Zhihan found out that the little flower was hanging on his hind legs, and it turned out to be a lame man with a broken leg.
As soon as the money was handed out here, the person who came to receive the money was called Hanako, and it was really crowded. Lu San was afraid that those people would receive the money repeatedly, so he supervised his subordinates to drive those who had already received the money to the riverside and squat, not allowed to get up.
"I didn't expect Gongzi to be a nobleman of the Shu Domain!" The coachman took advantage of the chaos and found a free time to come to Zhu Zhihan, "I heard that the Shu Domain is the richest in the world, but is it true?" ”
Zhu Zhihan squinted the coachman: "What is the richest in the world!" When did the Shu clan take the full amount of money? The prince of Shu was buried, and the emperor didn't give us a single copper, and forced us to pay for the thieves! If it weren't for the incomparable intelligence of the prince and the daughter-in-law of the prince and the skill of making money, the Shu clan would not be as good as the group of people called Huazi! Let me tell you, our prince is benevolent and righteous. When I earn money, I never carry it at home, either I reward the clan or let the people ......"
Zhu Zhihan praised Zhu Pingjian's ability to make money several times, and almost confirmed that Shu Mansion had a method of gold and silver refining.
"It's good to have a feudal lord who can earn money and is benevolent!" The driver was very touched by Zhu Zhihan's words. He nodded his head frequently and praised him loudly from time to time. Suddenly, the coachman asked:
"What is the matter with the prince looking for King Luster? Partnership or land? In the past few years, Liao's family fortune has been about to be lost. Those who were not in the official were transferred to the king's mansion, and those who were pawned and sold, and there was not a few silver left. The rest is more than 2,000 clans called Hanako! ”
"I'm here to ......" Zhu Zhihan stopped in time. He asked the coachman curiously: "You are a car driver, how can you be so familiar with the Liaofu family!" ”
The coachman did not answer Zhu Zhihan directly, but continued to introduce the Liao Domain.
He said that unlike the old advanced and old example of the Shu Domain, which was among the vassal kings of the imperial court, the Liao Domain was an old and backward element among the vassal kings.
Since the first generation of Liao King Zhu Zhi did not express his support for Zhu Di, the king of Yan who was martyred in Jingnan, the Liao domain has been regarded as a thorn in the side of the imperial court for generations. With no guards, it's impossible to ask for gifts. Almost every generation of Liao kings is newly established, and the imperial court will remind the children of the Liao clan in the edict of sealing the country that they have "offended the imperial court"! The Liao kings of the past dynasties had to find ways to tie up with the court and change the law to please the emperor.
The last Liao king Zhu Xianjie (next to the fire word) almost succeeded, relying on the same hobby as the Jiajing Emperor who admired the Tao, Zhu Xianjie was also once prosperous in Jingzhou City. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, Emperor Jiajing died, Emperor Longqing ascended the throne, and soon gave the Liao King Zhu Xian a holiday. In the second year of Longqing, Huguang Patrol exceeded the system according to the imperial history of the Liao King, and Zhang Juzheng, the next-door neighbor scholar who had always had a gap with the Liao Domain, immediately used it, and finally led to the abolition of the Liao State, and the last Liao King Zhu Xianjie was imprisoned for a lifetime with a high wall. As soon as the Liao State was abolished, the Liao clan was even more miserable. This year, I didn't see it at all, and in the middle of the year, I starved to death a sect member.
"If the prince wants to talk about big business, don't go to the King of Luster. ZHU SHUYAN (YU), THE KING OF LUSTRE, IS AN OLD FOOL, AND HE ONLY KNOWS HOW TO LIVE BY GUARDING HIS FEW ACRES OF BROKEN LAND. He celebrated his 60th birthday last month, and it is said that there were only ten tables in total, with only two meat dishes and a pot of light wine for each table! Chopsticks are not extended, and they are not extended...... If Zhu Shuyi's son talks about business, he is not as good as Zhu Shuya, the king of Changyang (Note 1). The line of King Changyang came from King Jian of Liao (the first generation of King Zhu Zhi of Liao), and the population in the sect was large. Zhu Shuya, the king of Changyang, and Zhu Shugui, the general of the auxiliary state, are all people who have a heart for society and dare to be a ......"
The coachman gave a detailed introduction, but did not impress the suspicious Zhu Zhihan. Zhu Zhihan changed his cold face and scolded loudly: "Hmph! Who is the little brother, it's better to tell the truth! Otherwise, this son will take someone to see the official! ”
Hearing the movement here, Lu San was already standing behind the coachman with a big knife in his hand. The coachman saw that he couldn't hide, so he had to bow down: "Little Zhu Shupei, the king of Yiyang of the Liao Domain, a hereditary general of Fengguo!" Just because of the lack of money and the poverty of the family, I have to go to the street to make a living, and I ask my brother to forgive me! As he spoke, he blushed.
The 20 characters of the Liao clan are: Guihao Grace Zhi, Xianshu Yan Confucianism, Yun Still Qi Baohe, Cao Han Li Longxing. The Shuzi generation is the same as Zhu Xuanyan, the old king of Shiquan in the Shu Domain.
It turned out that Lieutenant Fuguo called a taxi from General Bongguk.
"What brother! You're my uncle! Zhu Zhihan scolded depressedly in his heart.
I wanted to make some rich money in Jingzhou, but I happened to meet one, but he was a complete poor ghost!
Note 1: The nine-ring broadsword is often used in martial arts training. When slashing downward, the brass ring slides forward, increasing the force of the blade.
Note 2: Xiangmu was puzzled by the names of Zhu Shuya, the king of Changyang, and his brother Zhu Shugui. Because the last word of the Shu character generation, according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty clan to name the five elements of reincarnation, it should be next to the word "soil". FOR EXAMPLE, THE SAME GENERATION OF LIAO CLAN ZONGLI ZHU SHUYUAN (TONG) AND LUSTER KING ZHU SHUYAN (YU). The word "Ya" is a traditional and simplified homograph. And Zhu Shugui's name fell on his own handwritten suicide note, and it was repeatedly confirmed by Mr. Lian Heng in the "General History of Taiwan", and there will be absolutely no mistake. So what's wrong? Later, Hibiki discovered that the traditional Chinese character for "Shu" is "術", which originally means road, and may be extended to "earth".
