Chapter 50: Confrontation with the Eunuch and the Momentum
Li Mi finally met the legendary eunuch, objectively speaking, Wang Mude is not a freak, his face is handsome, he is also good-looking, his body is long and straight, but he is a little bookish.
Because the ancients all had beards, in contrast, Wang Mude, who had no beard, looked out of place, that's all.
However, as soon as Wang Mude opened his mouth, he showed timidity, opened his mouth and closed his mouth for a while, or he called himself a grandfather, and his voice was indeed a little sharp, which made people itch when they heard it.
These are also secondary, and the most fundamental problem is that his temperament is really perverse, uncertain, moody, giving people the impression of narrow-mindedness and retribution.
In ancient times, eunuchs were actually not allowed to study, because they were just a group of slaves and maids who served people, and how could they study if they didn't even have the right to stay?
It was only in the Ming Dynasty that the situation changed.
Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was a poor grass man who became the emperor, this legendary experience is unique, even if he became the emperor, he did not have a good impression of officials, from the various political systems he formulated.
If an official can't trust it, he can only use majesty to restrain discipline, so who should he trust?
Naturally, it was the eunuchs around him who served him every day.
After Hu Weiyong's case, Zhu Yuanzhang took the opportunity to ban the prime minister system that had lasted for thousands of years, making the centralization of power reach an unprecedented height, and the imperial power in his hands was really life and death.
But after all, he is also a person, and his energy is limited after all, so it is impossible for him to handle so many state and government affairs alone.
So Zhu Yuanzhang asked the eunuchs around him to read and write, and asked them to help sort out the books in the palace, but they were not allowed to interfere in politics.
When he arrived at Zhu Di, the situation was also quite special, as I had said earlier, Zhu Di was also suspicious, so he invited a temporary teacher to teach the eunuchs in the palace to read and write.
The formal system was really formed during the Xuande period of Zhu Zhanji of Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, when he opened a school in the palace to teach eunuchs, called Neishutang, and even equipped officials from the Hanlin Academy to serve as teachers.
As the saying goes, hooligans are not terrible, but they are afraid that hooligans are educated, these eunuchs have become extremely greedy and selfish because they have no ability to pass on their ancestors and prevent old age, and now they have culture, they are even more unscrupulous!
Later, it became a common thing for eunuchs to participate in politics, and even the shadow of eunuchs in both the central and local governments had eunuchs.
As a town guard eunuch, Wang Mude has naturally read books, and he has been proud in the palace, his eyes are above the top, and when he comes down to the place, he naturally will not put the seven-rank petty officials in his eyes, even if Song Zhiwei is a pusher, how dare he shout in front of him, the town guard eunuch!
The eunuch's mind is actually the most sensitive, because his body is mutilated, and he always hides the inferiority complex in his heart, so he cares the most about the light of others.
The literati have always looked down on the eunuchs, and the eunuchs also hated the literati sourly, which seems to have become a self-evident thing.
In fact, some literati are not much different from eunuchs, in fact, they are all eunuchs, but the places of eunuchs are different, eunuchs are castrated to the root of their lives, and literati are castrated to their minds.
Song Zhiwei is a serious Jinshi, if he is like Chen Heguang who has no quarrel with the world, or who is flattering and flattering like Huang Shiyuan, then Wang Mude will not embarrass him.
But at this moment, Song Zhiwei took out the style of a scholar, which made Wang Mude feel deep disdain!
What he hates the most is the literati, who are the only ones in the world who are the most decent, but in fact they are just some sanctimonious guys!
Wang Mude slapped the table, walked in front of Song Zhiwei, and said with a gloomy face: "Song Zhiwei, the emperor sent me down to guard this Suzhou, I have to do things beautifully, and I can't tolerate the slightest mistake, anyone who dares to do bad things is to go against me, or to bad things for the emperor, you are also a scholar, and you must distinguish the importance of speaking!" ”
Song Zhiwei was also annoyed, what he hated most was these eunuchs, under the royal banner, the fox and the tiger, for the trouble!
"Princess, this matter is reasonable, the Torture Hall has the right to handle it, since this official has started this, he will definitely handle it thoroughly!"
"What a big deal to suppress bandits, the elite soldiers of the guard and the Jinyi Guard's hundred households will cover the sky and cover the sun, how can it be your turn to do bad things like a broken pusher yamen, you will withdraw all the people for me, and you are not allowed to mess around anymore, otherwise I will definitely sue the Son of Heaven, so that you can't even push the officials, do you believe it or not!"
The two went toe-for-tat, which was considered to have completely torn their faces, Song Zhiwei was still a little jealous, but now he is also out of the way!
"Others are afraid of you, but I, Song Zhiwei, am not, this matter is ironclad!"
Wang Mude was already furious, and at this time he pointed at Song Zhiwei, his fingers trembled, and he jumped to his feet and scolded: "You stupid idiot!" You are obstructing the official business of guarding the yamen, come here, detain me and talk about it! ”
As soon as Wang Mude said this, the guards around him stepped forward and surrounded Song Zhiwei!
Song Zhiwei was also so angry that his face turned pale, and he scolded back: "Okay, you are a traitor, Song is an official of the imperial court, accepting the seal of the Son of Heaven and notarization by the court, I want to see why you take me!" ”
Song Zhiwei held his head high, and his righteousness was brilliant, and Li Mi couldn't help but admire it in his heart!
He himself is also a scholar, in ancient times, scholars were castrated by feudal thoughts, more closed and stubborn, but there are many hard bones who have become benevolent, and today I finally saw one!
Song Zhiwei gave Li Mi the feeling that he was an old oilman in officialdom earlier, and he never thought that Song Zhiwei would be able to do this.
The so-called fire sees real gold, and it is precisely because of the troubles of the town guard eunuch Wang Mude that Li Mi saw Song Zhiwei's true integrity!
I have to admit that Song Zhiwei may still have a gap with Yuan Keli in solving cases, but with his character and character, it is not impossible to achieve Yuan Keli's achievements in the future!
Since Li Mi chose to stay, of course he couldn't watch Wang Mude do something bad, Song Zhiwei was so resolute, Li Mi had to help him even more!
When those guards surrounded Song Zhiwei, Li Mi held down the handle of the knife, walked to Wang Mude's side, and said in a low voice.
"The prince has also read books, so I think I should know that when the husband is angry, blood will be splashed in five steps!"
Li Mi is dressed up quickly, and no one notices him, let alone anyone regards him as a threat, according to this kind of scene, ordinary catchers would have been stupid, who would have thought that this little catcher would have the courage to threaten Wang Mude!
What Li Mi said is actually an allusion, telling the story of King Qin and Tang Ju.
King Qin said that the wrath of the Son of Heaven was filled with millions of corpses and thousands of miles of blood, but Tang Ju asked him, has the king ever heard of the anger of Buyi?
King Qin couldn't help laughing, saying that the puppet was angry but he just threw his hat and tore his clothes, making a big noise, but Tang Ju said that this was the anger of the mediocre husband.
The real wrath of the puppeteer is to stab the king, like a comet hitting the moon, it is Nie Zheng stabbing Han puppet, like a white rainbow running through the sun, and it is to leave the thorn Qingji, like a goshawk hitting the palace, these three are the real wrath of the puppet.
And if you King Qin continue to do this, I, Tang Ju, will be the fourth person, and now I am only five steps away from you, if I get angry, I will kill you first before you wait for your corpse to bleed for thousands of miles!
Wang Mude has read books, and life in the palace is boring and lonely, he likes to listen to books and watch dramas on weekdays, and he picks some allusions to read as storybooks, so he naturally knows this story.
When Li Mi said this, he was too calm, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, Wang Mude didn't think that Li Mi was just scaring him!
Because who would dare to scare him, the eunuch who guards the town?
Those who really dare to say cruel things in front of him are either fools and nerds like Song Zhiwei, or they are really murderous!
He is a high-powered guard, and Li Mi is just a fledgling little catcher, who is more open-minded, there is no need to think about it at all!
"You... You... Don't you dare! ”
Wang Mude's voice trembled, but he didn't dare to retreat, because Li Mi had already pulled out half of the Yanling knife!
"I... I'm but... Do you know who I am, I can make your nine clans punished! ”
Li Mi grinned and said: "The villain has no nine clans, the villain has no father and mother, no superiors and no subordinates, no worries, so he has a cheap life, that is, this catch, and he has only been a three-day man, and he has never received any food and silver for those few cents, and my father-in-law said that I dare or not?" ”
A scholar like Song Zhiwei, when he encounters a traitor like Wang Mude, he is afraid that the hooligan is educated, but what is more terrifying than the hooligan is cultured is that the hooligan does not want to die!
Wang Mude is unreasonable, and he oppresses people, but Li Mi is even more unreasonable!
Those guards didn't dare to be careless, they shouted one after another, and turned the spearhead to Li Mi, this time even Song Zhiwei was afraid!
He was not afraid that Wang Mude would oppress him, but he was afraid that Li Mizhen would kill Wang Mude with one sword!
Wang Mude bullied him, but he didn't do it as a big deal, and Wang Mude was just scaring him, just to snatch the credit.
Without a serious name, how could he play Song Zhiwei? Moreover, it is not in accordance with the rules for him to do this, but I am afraid that even he Wang Mude will not have the courage to fold it.
But Li Mi really wants to kill Wang Mude, and the matter will break through the sky!
"Li Zhutou must not be rude, the prince is not... Li Mi, don't be stupid! ”
Li Mi couldn't cry or laugh, but he didn't expect Song Zhiwei, who was righteous and awe-inspiring, and regarded death as home, to be so frightened at this time.
But he couldn't show any hesitation on his face, otherwise even if Wang Mude couldn't see it, those old Jianghu-like guards would see that he didn't dare to make a move, and it would be himself who would suffer at that time!
The current comparison is this momentum, if the momentum is relaxed, he will be slaughtered by others!
As soon as Song Zhiwei opened his mouth, Wang Mude also hurriedly said: "You put down the knife, everything is good to say, although you are disrespectful to me, but I am not a careful person, as long as you put down the knife, I will not pursue everything!" ”
As Li Mi thought, these eunuchs have no children and no daughters, they are often lonely and old, and they offend too many people, usually they don't end well, and it is rare to have a good death, so when they are in office, they can make money, and they can value their lives more than anything else!
As soon as Wang Mude said this, Li Mi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but it was such a moment of relaxation that allowed these guards to seize the opportunity!
"Throw the knife!"
A guard shouted, like a spring thunder explosion, and the long knife in his hand was already unsheathed and fell towards Li Mi!
