Chapter 9: Super Memory
After drinking two pots of tea in the signing room, Shui Zhutou and Lao Si finally invited the people from the county magistrate and the Sun family over.
Then the court will hear the case.
Zhang Zhixian is famous, about forty years old, and he is also upright, I heard that he is a Jinshi in Zhengde for thirteen years, and he is fourth in the second class, and his results are not bad, otherwise it is impossible to put it in a county like Zouping to be a county magistrate.
This person has a very bookish atmosphere, and he speaks slowly and logically, but his Zhejiang dialect makes people hear it in a fog, if it weren't for Sun Dan's reception of a few Wenzhou guests, there is really no way to communicate with him.
When it came to the white-bearded old man from the Hou Sun family of Huichang, he spoke in a straight and round manner, and he was very neat in a mouthful of Beijing films. It's just that this person has a proud face, sits on the chair casually, and looks very capable. Even the few entourages he brought with him were also very energetic.
The white-bearded old man was holding a teacup in his hand, gently blowing the tea foam, but a pair of blazing eyes fell on Sun Dan, and there was no trace of essence from time to time.
Sun Dan was not afraid, nodded at him, and smiled slightly.
The old man was stunned by Sun Dan's calmness, and looked at Sun Dan's eyes a little more focused.
Because it is not officially promoted, there are no officials in the hall, but there is a little less solemn and majestic yamen.
Sun Dan stepped forward and arched his hand towards Zhixian: "I've seen Master Zhang." He made another gesture to the old man: "This elder is the elder of the Hou Sun family of Huichang." ”
The old man next to him had a blank face: "Bold, I don't kneel down when I see the big man, beg for a beating!" ”
Zhang Zhixian waved his hand: "Excuse me, since you are from the Sun family, I haven't tried the case, so I don't have to kneel." ”
Sun Dan straightened up: "Thank you, sir." ”
"Dang!" With a soft sound, the teacup was placed a few times, and the old man raised his eyelids: "Is it that the people of our Sun family will talk about it later, and there are more people surnamed Sun in the world, and I have to listen to you about this matter." ”
The old man smiled lightly and said, "Your name is Sun Dan, right?" I am Sun Zhong, who stayed in the old house in Shandong, and I am the head of the Sun family. If you are really my grandson, you will not be able to call me uncle in the future. But if you tell a lie and deceive. I'm afraid that the law of the country can't tolerate you, so you have to think about it. At the end, he smiled and said sternly.
Sun Dan's face was calm: "Sun Dan knows." ”
Zhang Zhixian glanced at Sun Zhong, and when he saw Sun Zhong nodded, he said, "Manager Sun, let's start?" ”
Sun Zhong's body straightened, and when he got down to business, the old man's voice began to become stern: "Sun Dan, let me ask you, you said that you are a member of my Changhou family, but you have a certificate, have you ever brought a genealogy?" The genealogy of my grandson's family starts from the succession of the Marquis of Huichang, the sixth generation, and the fourth generation, all of which are recorded in detail. ”
Sun Dan spread his hands: "The kid is a poor family, and there is no genealogy of the household, so naturally he can't come up with evidence." ”
Sun Zhong let out a chuckle in his nose, ignored Sun Dan, turned his head to Zhang Zhixian and said, "Lord Zhang, since this is the case, Sun Zhong is disturbed, so he will leave." ”
Zhang Zhixian was greatly embarrassed, "I bothered Sun Laobai to come here, and Zhang was ashamed." He glared at Sun Dan angrily and shouted: "Sun Dan, you pretend to be the family of the Marquis of Huichang and deceive the official. Misrecognizing ancestors, disobedience and unfilial piety, this crime is two. According to the law of the Great Ming Dynasty, when the rod is fifty, the exile is three thousand miles. Are you guilty? ”
Sun Dan was not shocked and smiled: "My lord, although I can't get the genealogy, the three words of my Sun family's genealogy are all in my heart." When I was a child, my father had a family tree in his hand. It's a pity that the boy was not filial and bought the ancestral property, and the family tree was lost immediately. At the beginning, my father couldn't read because he couldn't read. But the ancestral surname is not forgotten for a while, every time it comes to the Qingming Festival, when the sacrifice is made, the father has to invite someone to read it. The kid listened a lot when he was a child, and he remembered it well. ”
"What, you memorized the family tree of the Sun family?" Sun Zhong, who was still annoyed just now, perked up, and turned his head to look at Sun Dan with blazing eyes. To be honest, he has a good impression of Sun Dan. There are not 1,000 but 800 children of the Hou Sun family of Huichang, most of whom he knows, and there are many young talents among them. But if you really encounter this situation, you may not be so calm and calm. If this person is really a child of the Sun family, he may not be a talent. As a big family, in order to maintain the glory of the family, the elders of the clan consciously explore the talents in the family and cultivate the juniors. When you encounter a better seedling, you naturally refuse to let it go.
"Yes." Sun Dan nodded.
"Someone, bring me the family tree of my grandson." Sun Zhong did not hesitate, and turned around to drink to an entourage.
The attendant hurriedly opened a beautiful red lacquer niche, took out three thick scrolls from it, and put them with a solemn face. He handed over a clean towel.
Sun Zhong took the towel and cleaned his hands, then he picked up the first volume reverently, and looked at Sun Dan with a serious face: "You can start." ”
Sun Dan cleared his throat, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Zouping Sun's four cultivation genealogy number Tianyitang. ”
"Ancestor: Sun Tiren, the word Bo Pi, a native of Jinan, living in Zouping County, Dongshan seeker, engaged in Confucius. Yongle 21 years in the Jinshi, successively served as the county magistrate of Tao County, Chengdu general judgment. In the winter of the 22nd year of Hongwu, he was born on October 15, died in the autumn and August of the first year of Xuande, and was buried in Dongling Mountain, Zouping County, Shandong. With the Yan family, given to the wife, born in the 19th year of Yongle on the 17th day of June in the 26th year of Hongwu, Xin Si, died on the 15th day of October and was buried in the tomb of Xingbo Pi Gonghe, Zi Eryao, Hui ......"
……
"Gaozu, Sun Jizong, Ziguangfu, Brother Empress Zhang. At the beginning of Xuande, he was awarded the commander of the avant-garde of the government army and changed to Jinyi Guard. At the beginning of Jingtai, he commanded the affairs of the capital and attacked his father. Tianshun changed the yuan, in order to win the door, enter the marquis, plus Fengtian Yiwei pushed the sincerity of Xuanli Wuchen, especially into the Guanglu doctor, Zhuguo ......"
……
"Taizu, Sun Lian, the word retreats, awarded the commander of Jinyiwei, and was born in the first year of Hongxi......"
……
The thick three genealogies are at least 60,000 words from beginning to end, and it really takes some time to memorize.
But these materials are stored in Sun Dan's mind, as the first person in the history of Zouping County, although Sun Jizong's genealogy has been lost several times, but later in the joint efforts of the Sun family at home and abroad, it lasted more than 30 years, and finally collected and sorted out, revised into more than a dozen, as a rare historical material stored in the warehouse of the county annals. Later, Zouping County implemented office automation, and several staff members of the county office spent months of work entering the family tree into the computer. Sun Dan also had itchy hands at that time, and he had to write the so-called promotional materials, and in line with the principle that the more information, the better, he also copied a copy and put it on his personal computer. The last time he was struck by lightning, these materials also drilled into his brain and became the repository of his brain library.
Now when I memorize it, I don't have to think about it at all, just click on the folder and read it according to the book.
If a person can even memorize his own family tree, can't he prove his identity? Among them, when Sun Dan used to read this Sun family tree, he accidentally found that during the Xuande period, the Sun family was divided into three or four branches. In ancient times, the big family was prosperous, and there were thousands of households, and the collateral relatives were even more intertwined, and after a long time, it became a mess, and the truth was not clear for a while.
And Sun Dan's father's branch was divided from that time, Sun Dan made a small move when he memorized this family tree, added a few articles in the places where it was divided, and added the names of his grandfather and father, which can be regarded as a continuation of the interrupted part of the family tree.
When he first began to recite, Sun Zhong's face was still as usual. After all, the Sun family is a prominent family in the sea, and several celebrities in the family are also loud and loud in the world, and passers-by know it, and it is not surprising to know their names. But the more he listened, the more surprised he became. The genealogy that Sun Dan memorized was almost exactly the same as in the book, and even the collateral lines were scored exactly the same.
This can no longer be explained by blindness, if it were not for the real Sun family, it would be impossible to know the names of so many ancestors.
Even if it is a direct descendant of the Sun family, I am afraid that I will not be able to recite a few words.
Besides, there are so many names, unless the person has read the family tree beforehand and memorized it. However, this genealogy is very tightly collected on weekdays, and ordinary people have no chance to see it at all.
Then, there can only be one explanation, this Sun Dan is indeed an authentic son of the Sun family.
However, it is a bit absurd to admit that Sun Dan is a child of the Sun family.
After Sun Zhong and Sun Dan memorized these three genealogies, he drew a few obscure ones from them and asked them repeatedly.
How did he know that Sun Dan was simply a humanoid computer, an active memory, no matter how he asked, Sun Dan was just a good word.
An hour has passed.
Zhang Zhixian's eyes widened when he heard this: "Old Sun, what did Sun Dan remember just now?" ”
Sun Zhongchang took a breath: "It's word for word." ”
"Good memory!" Zhang Zhixian took a breath of cold air: "With such a good memory, this official has only seen two people." ”
Sun Zhongzhong was curious: "Dare to ask Master Zhang, is there still such a good memory in the world, but I don't know which two?" ”
"Of course." Zhang Zhixian nodded and said, "One is my brother Zhang Xuan, and the other is my classmate Xia Yan." ”
"Lord Zhang's brother Zhang Xuan is a famous talent in Liangjiang, and the old man has also heard of it. As for Xia Yan, but in the twelfth year of Zhengde, he was a jinshi, a pedestrian, and a Xia genius in the military department? ”
"Who else could it be but him?" Zhang Zhixian said with a smile: "My brother and Xia Yan are both unforgettable people, at the beginning, when the two of them were in the imperial examination in the capital, they randomly drew an idle book in the bookstore, browsed it separately, and then closed the book and recited it, and they were all word for word." ”
"I can't imagine that there is such a master in the world." Sun Zhong sighed.
Zhang Zhixian glanced at Sun Dan with a smile: "Sun Dan of your Sun family is also a talented person, although he can't read a word, he can memorize the thick three genealogies after only listening to them a few times." The Hou Sun family of Huichang is so versatile! With a smile, Zhang Zhixian's eyes were full of appreciation.
Sun Zhong stood up with a smile and arched his hand: "Whether Sun Dan is from our Sun family or not, I can't decide, I have to ask the eldest lord of the capital family for instructions before I can decide." If so, you might as well add a few strokes to your family tree. After speaking, he glanced at Sun Dan again, and said to Zhang Zhixian: "Lord Zhang, Sun Dan's labor is paid by me." ”
Sun Dan's heart was relieved when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Thank you, uncle." ”
Zhang Zhixian waved his hand and said: "No, no, if it is really from your Sun family, it is natural to exempt him from labor." But if not, the official will never show favoritism. ”
Sun Zhong smiled, said goodbye, and said before leaving, the eldest master of the Sun family is in the capital, and it will take a month or two to come and go. You can't just run alone because of this little thing, and wait for the opportunity to talk about it. It is estimated that it will take three or five months to wait.
The magistrate said it was okay and waited.
Waiting for Sun Zhong and his entourage to leave, Sun Dan thanked Zhang Zhixian and prepared to leave.
If it is really as Sun Zhong said, it takes three or five months to determine his identity, and with these three or five months, he can always figure out a way. As a modern person, it is not a simple thing to make two taels of silver.
This level is passed.
Seeing that Sun Dan wanted to leave, Zhang Zhixian suddenly sighed: "It's a pity, it's such a good memory, how good it would be if you read." Ten years of cold windows, you will be able to climb the dragon gate. It's a pity that you are so old now, you have passed the best age to study. ”
Sun Dan's body shook, as if he had been struck by a big thunderbolt.
