Chapter 915: Shocking Ogre
Yu Shiji's face turned blue for a while, his stomach was like a river and a sea, he couldn't hold back any longer, and suddenly fell to the ground, his mouth opened, and he vomited everything he had eaten in the morning.
Yang Guang's face was gloomy, he waved his hand, and the two chamberlains rushed over, while setting up Yu Shiji, while wiping the things he spit out, the hall was filled with the smell of unpleasant vomit, Yu Shiji beat his chest and rubbed his back for a while, and finally came back to his senses, and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the criminal has lost his temper for a while, and he has offended His Majesty, capital crime, capital crime!" โ
Yang Guang sighed and waved his hand: "Okay, Yu Aiqing doesn't have to blame herself, it's this Uncle Ma who is planning to do something that is too angry, and when I first saw this paragraph last night, I vomited nauseously." This is human nature. โ
Wang Shichong sneered in his heart, he couldn't stand this, how could he be worthy of ruling the world, but he still had a loyal expression on his face, and said indignantly: "What this person did, it was really the anger of people and gods, when Weichen was writing the folds, he was so angry that he didn't sleep all night when he saw these criminal evidences, and he didn't want to dirty His Majesty's eyes, but he felt that if such evil deeds were not written, it would be difficult to show the world, and it would be difficult to punish him." โ
Yang Guang nodded: "Wang Aiqing, you did a good job, go on." โ
Wang Shichong raised his eyebrows and continued: "Duan Da, the general of the Xiaoguo Army, as the supervising envoy of Uncle Ma's plan to open the river, is in charge of the performance of the Quartet. Ningling is a family with children. The child had to be locked in a closet at home every night. When the cabinet was opened at dawn, I saw that the child was still there, and then I celebrated with my forehead. โ
Uncle Ma saw that this matter was getting bigger and bigger, and he was afraid, so he instructed the house slave Golden Cave, bribed Duan Da with a hundred catties of gold, and asked him to suppress the matter, and Duan Da was dizzy for a while. Thinking that Uncle Ma's plot to dig the river was a major national event, and it should not be abandoned lightly, he forcibly suppressed the matter, and some people who reported the loss of children in the Quartet were beaten with forty boards on their backs, and then driven out of the yamen. โ
Yang Guang said angrily: "It's really a wolf bรจi, this Duan Da, I saw that he was loyal and reliable when he was in charge of the Xiaoguo Army, so I sent him to be the envoy of the Kaihe Supervision Center, and I didn't expect that he was also a private bribe." Conspired with Uncle Ma to do this unconscionable thing. โ
Wang Shichong replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Duan Da also has a script. It is said that he is mainly in order not to affect the plan to open the river, so he temporarily collects the gold to conceal it, and these papers, including the gold that Uncle Ma tried to bribe, he kept them intact, that is, after the completion of the opening of the river, he presented them to His Majesty. โ
Yang Guang was a little surprised, and said "oh": "There is such a thing?" โ
Wang Shichong nodded: "Exactly, these things that His Majesty heard were all played by Duan Da, he still didn't dare to hide anything from His Majesty, Uncle Ma plotted to do it, although people and gods were angry, but only a brutal and inhuman guy like him could drive the people to dig the canal in a short time, and after the river was successfully opened, His Majesty would collect the charges and kill them to thank the world, which was a good way for the people to be angry. โ
Yang Guang's tightly knit brows eased slightly, and said, "Duan Da's matter, let's talk about it later, continue to talk about Uncle Ma's matter." โ
Wang Shichong continued: "Yes, Your Majesty. When Uncle Ma planned to dig the river to the boundary of Suiyang, there was a local river protector named Chen Bogong, who said that if you want to open the river here, it is best to take the straight road, but you have to pass through Suiyang City, and if you go around the city, you have to walk more than 30 miles. โ
"At that time, the rich families in Suiyang City, in order to avoid this Suiyang City being crossed, their homes and ancestral homes were not guaranteed, so they scraped together 3,000 taels of gold, and wanted to bribe this Uncle Ma, but no one they knew went to the doorway. As a result, Ma Shumou continued to excavate, when digging to a large forest, it is said that there was a tomb of Sima Huayuan of the Song Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period, Ma Shumou did not care, and continued to dig the tomb, as a result, the tomb was opened, and the tent candlestick and sarcophagus were turned into ashes, leaving only a stone inscription, which read: Suiyang land is high, bamboo and wood can be a moat. If you don't avoid it, you will be given two golden knives. โ
"Ma Shumou didn't care at the time, and said to his subordinates that these must be the tricks of the Diao people envoy of Suiyang City, but that night Ma Shumou had a dream, dreaming that he was summoned to a large hall by a messenger, and there was a nobleman in the hall wearing a silk robe and wearing a crown of Jinxian, claiming to be Song Xianggong, and turned into a god after his death, guarding Suiyang City, which was once the capital of the Song Kingdom, has been more than a thousand years, if General Ma can let go of this city and not pass through Suiyang, it will definitely be given as a generous gift."
"Uncle Ma refused at that time, because if you dig a river around the city, you have to walk a hundred miles more, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it will kill tens of thousands of servants, and then the Song Xianggong said that this Suiyang has a king's spirit, and after five hundred years, there should be a king who will build the king's hegemony according to this, if you dig the city and open the river, and destroy the king's spirit, it will only anger God and bring disaster to you."
But Uncle Ma still didn't listen, so Song Xianggong was angry and summoned a purple-robed man, claiming to be Sima Huayuan, the great of the Song Kingdom, this Hua Yuan ordered the warriors in the palace to tie Uncle Ma to the pillar, set up torture tools, and burned the copper juice, saying that he poured this copper juice into Ma Shumou's mouth and burned his stomach. As a result, Ma Shumou was scared in his heart, and promised not to pass through the city again, but to go around the city to protect him. โ
"That purple-clothed man Hua Yuan untied Ma Shumou at this time, and told him that God would give him three thousand taels of gold in order to thank him for his work in protecting the city, all of which were among the people."
"When Ma Shumou woke up, he thought he had a ridiculous dream, but at this time, his house slave came to the Golden Cave and offered three thousand taels of gold.
"Uncle Ma felt that this dream was real, and he didn't dare to go against the will of God, so he accepted three thousand taels of gold, and released the river protector Chen Bogong, and asked him to command it, and opened the river around the city, so that it went around more than 200 miles, but Suiyang City was preserved."
"After that, when this Uncle Ma Mou passed through Pengcheng (now Xuzhou), he also encountered a similar thing, this time it was King Xu Yan who appeared and asked him not to touch his tomb, and gave him two golden knives, Uncle Ma got a bribe, so he walked around the tomb, and walked dozens of miles more detours, along the way, the servants and rivers made him miserable for such a detour, and when he dug through to Yangzhou, hundreds of thousands of people had died."
