To draw the three heroes and Lu Bu in the blank space of "Lonely Smoke and Far Village", if Dong Qichang knew that he had to vomit blood, Eunuch Zhong realized that it was a big mistake to bring Qiu Chengyun to his study, Qiu Chengyun only loves silver, but since he arrived in the study, it is not good not to give Qiu Chengyun some favorite things, thought about it, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Qiu, come here, we will show you a good thing." He said to Zhang Yuan: "Don't come over Zhang Gongzi, young people can't see it." ”

Zhang Yuan knew that the two eunuchs were going to see the silver book and silver painting, and said, "The two fathers-in-law, please." ”

Eunuch Zhong led Eunuch Qiu to the inner room of the study, took out a beautifully framed picture album from the book, inscribed as "Ten Glory Pictures", unfolded it, but it was a lifelike serial spring palace picture, a total of ten, each with a posture, smooth brushwork and ink, fine depiction, painting a man and his wife and concubine frolicking, extremely fragrant and charming, depicted well, lustful and affectionate, when intercourse, men and women eyebrows flirt, the man seemed to be saying ** words, the woman leaned back and wrenched her legs to bear, her cheeks reflected pink, so that the viewer's blood was open - Eunuch Qiu's eyes were straight, and he said continuously: " This is good, this is good, this is better than Dong Hanlin's. ”

Eunuch Zhong said in his heart: "Let Dong Hanlin know this, he must have to vomit a mouthful of blood again." said: "This is also painted by a famous artist, Qiu Ying and Qiu Shifu-"

Forget it, don't say much, anyway, Qiu Chengyun doesn't know who Qiu Ying is, it's not interesting to throw a flattering eye at the blind man, Eunuch Zhong said: "This is our family spent a hundred taels of silver to buy it from a huge rich room, if it weren't for our family, the rich room would not sell, since Gonggong Qiu likes it, our family will give it away." ”

Qiu Chengyun was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly, there have been many people who have given him gifts in recent years, and there are also calligraphy, painting and antiques, but no one dares to give him a spring palace painting, which is like giving an ugly girl a mirror and a footless person's shoes, which is clearly vicious and sarcastic, but it doesn't hurt for Eunuch Zhong to give him a spring palace painting, everyone is a eunuch, there is no sarcasm, just curiosity to discuss.

Qiu Chengyun hid the Spring Palace booklet "Ten Glory Pictures" in his arms, and came out with a smile with Eunuch Zhong, Eunuch Zhong said: "Father-in-law Qiu, the show is about to start, and the boat has been waiting for a long time - Zhang Gongzi, accompany our family to the lake to listen to the play." ”

Eunuch Qiu had already walked out of the study, but stopped and said: "Gonggong Zhong, that painting of Dong Hanlin should also be given to our family, Dong Hanlin is the teacher of the Chitose Master, and our family wants a painting of this painting." ”

Eunuch Zhong had no choice but to give the "Lonely Smoke and Distant Village" to Qiu Chengyun, I don't know if Qiu Chengyun would let people add paintings of Liu Guan, Zhang Zhan, and Lu Bu in the blank space of the scroll?

…… Zhang Yuan and Xiao Jingwei a few days ago they traveled to the West Lake to take a six-zhang long lake boat, "lake and mountain waves" luxurious and spacious, but compared with the building boat that said that the eunuch Zhong invited Qiu Chengyun to feast on this building boat, this building ship is twelve zhang long, up and down three floors, as if moving a beautiful pavilion to the lake in general, the building boat is extremely luxurious, the threshold is sparse, the cloister is a curved room, the top layer is the stage, the song boy is playing, the man sings among them, the team dance and drumming, just like the fairy music - Qiu eunuch views the lake by the railing, the spring water is blue in the sky, and the flying flowers are light like a dream, Even if the vulgar eunuch Qiu felt pleasing to the eye, he said in a loud voice: "Gonggong Zhong, long live Grandpa still favors you more and sends you to stay in this good place, but our family is running around with poor mountains and bad waters." ”

Eunuch Zhong said with a smile: "The silver mine is a lot of important things, long live the lord sent Father-in-law Qiu there to trust Father-in-law Qiu, father-in-law returned to Beijing this time, long live Lord will definitely be happy, father-in-law is either into the ceremonial supervisor or into the imperial horse prison, and in the future, I will ask Father-in-law Qiu to take care of our family." ”

The celebrant and the imperial horse eunuch are the two most powerful internal official institutions among the twelve eunuchs, and the powerful eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty are all from these two eunuchs, so the eunuchs all sharpen their heads and want to drill into these two eunuchs - Eunuch Qiu shook his head and said: "Our family is not well educated, not as good as Gonggong Zhong, and we have to stay in the old local silver bureau when we go back, and there was an accident on the way to transport the silver this time, and I was robbed of 50,000 taels of silver by Shizhu Tu Sima Qian, and I don't know if the Lord will punish our family?" ”

Before the play started, Qiu Chengyun himself mentioned the matter of Ma Qiancheng, Eunuch Zhong glanced at Zhang Yuan who was standing by the boat, and said to Qiu Chengyun: "Our family has also heard about this matter, it was robbed by Shizhu Tusi, what is the matter with Father-in-law Qiu, father-in-law is only a few hundred, how to defeat a county Tusi, I heard that Ma Qiancheng has been imprisoned, and he has to hand over the silver, and Father-in-law Qiu will not bear the responsibility." ”

Eunuch Qiu frowned and said: "That Ma Qiancheng loves money like his life, and would rather go to prison than hand over the silver, so it is difficult to do, 50,000 taels of silver cannot be recovered, and our family is always at fault." ”

Eunuch Zhong said: "Let Yucheng and Kuizhou send people to Shizhu to search for silver, can the people of Shizhu still dare to rebel?" ”

This is exactly what Eunuch Qiu was worried about, he hated Ma Qiancheng for being rude to him, so he wanted to extort Ma Qiancheng for 50,000 taels of silver, but Ma Qiancheng was extremely stubborn, knowing that he would be imprisoned, he also wanted to go to Yunyang to complain, and said: "This is difficult to say, the people of the land are unreasonable. ”

If the Shizhu people are really reversed, the matter will be big, and Qiu Chengyun's framing of Ma Qiancheng will be exposed, of course, he Qiu Chengyun will deny it to the death, and the eunuchs often do things with a momentary whim, regardless of the consequences, and at this time, they know that something is wrong.

Zhang Yuan on the side said: "Gonggong Qiu, two days ago, I met a boat by the canal, there were many stone pillars and native soldiers on the boat, I heard that I was going to the capital to sue the emperor, I don't know if it is related to Gonggong Qiu?" ”

Eunuch Qiu had already learned from his father that the Shizhu Turen had tracked him here, and threatened his Qiu family, and then he heard that he was going to the capital to sue the emperor, and he couldn't help but be very troubled, and said ruthlessly in his heart: "When our family arrives in the capital, we will send all the 50,000 taels of silver out, and we must also suppress those Diao people. said: "Let's wait and go to Lord He, the commander of the capital of Zhejiang, and let Lord He send troops to arrest those natives, Gonggong Zhong, you want to say something to our family." ”

Eunuch Zhong was puzzled: "This doesn't seem to be appropriate, if you want to arrest those natives, you have to have a crime." ”

Eunuch Qiu said: "Let's just say that the local people want to rob the official silver, and according to our family's wishes, they will be killed on the spot." ”

Zhang Yuanxin said: "This eunuch is crazy and very cruel. ”

Eunuch Zhong shook his head and said: "I'm afraid Lord He won't do this kind of thing, if these people are arrested, the stone pillar side will definitely be reversed, how can Lord He bear such a crime." ”

Eunuch Qiu thought about it, he didn't have much friendship with Lord He, why did people give him the power to kill, and immediately sneered: "Then let them go to the capital with them, our family wants to see if Grandpa Banzai will accept their papers!" ”

Eunuch Zhong said: "That's it, don't talk about those things that spoil the fun, a few local people can't make any waves, Father-in-law Qiu, let's enjoy the show while drinking." ”

The repertoire of this performance is the carefully selected Guan Hanqing miscellaneous drama "Touching the Heaven and the Earth Dou E's Injustice", the wine is also quite strong Huizhou liquor, Eunuch Zhong frequently advises to drink, Eunuch Qiu has something on his mind, just borrowing wine to distract - Zhang Yuan watched coldly, judging from the performance of watching the play, this Eunuch Qiu is not without a sense of justice, seeing that the scoundrel Zhang Donkey on the stage is going to poison Granny Cai, Eunuch Qiu shouted nervously: "That soup can't be drunk, it's poisonous." ”

Seeing that Zhang Donkey'er killed his father instead of harming others, Eunuch Qiu stroked his palms and laughed: "Die well, die well, you deserve it!" ”

Seeing Zhang Donkey framing Dou E, the corrupt officials wanted to beat Dou E to confess, Eunuch Qiu was also full of righteous indignation, scolding Zhang Donkey and corrupt officials while drinking-many people are like this, they can judge things that have nothing to do with themselves, and those who involve themselves are completely unreasonable, Eunuch Qiu is more typical, when watching the play, he pays attention to punishing evil and promoting good, sympathizing with the protagonist, and completely forgetting how cruel it is for him to say that he wants to kill those natives on the spot!

A miscellaneous drama "Touching the Heaven and Earth Dou E's Injustice" was performed for an hour, and the building boat also went from Bai Causeway to Su Causeway, Eunuch Qiu was a little drunk, and shouted that someone beat the net horn who played Zhang Donkey, Eunuch Zhong smiled slightly, and asked someone to drag the net horn down and beat, in fact, it was to scream a few times for Eunuch Qiu to listen, and let the female Dan who played Dou E come over to toast to Gonggong Qiu - Eunuch Qiu was drunk, took the hand of the female Dan and said: "Our family has pity on you for your misery, and reward you with ten taels of silver." So he asked Chang Sui to hurry up and give the silver, and he was very generous.

The girl persuaded two glasses of wine, and Eunuch Qiu staggered, and Eunuch Zhong personally came to carry him to the gorgeous cabin on the second floor to rest, while talking to Eunuch Qiu about the stone pillar Ma Qiancheng, Eunuch Qiu said vaguely, his mouth was still relatively tight, and he did not use the strength of wine to say that he had framed Ma Qiancheng and wanted to embezzle 50,000 official silver, but at this time he was already in a daze - Eunuch Qiu had slept for almost two hours, and when he woke up, he saw that the sun was slanting in the west, and it was almost dusk, and his head was still a little drowsy when he sat up, After settling down, he remembered that he was on the boat of the West Lake Building, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Eunuch Zhong standing in front of the window with his back to him, so he smiled and said: "Gonggong Zhong, our family is greedy for a cup today, and it is almost dusk." ”

But when he saw Eunuch Zhong turn around, he said solemnly: "Gonggong Qiu, you have caused a big disaster." ”

Qiu Chengyun was stunned and said, "Why did Gonggong Zhong say this? ”

Eunuch Zhong shook his head and said, "After drinking and spitting out the truth, you yourself told all the things about the stone pillar robbing the silver." ”

Qiu Chengyun was shocked: "What did I say? ”

Eunuch Zhong just shook his head, looking like he knew everything.

Qiu Chengyun was both annoyed and frightened, Zhong Benhua knew that he had framed Ma Qiancheng, this is terrible, Zhong Benhua can really take the chapter and send it to the Lord of Long Life, if Zhong Benhua is determined to be his enemy, then he is in a very bad situation - Qiu Chengyun has been in the palace for more than 20 years, although he does not learn and has no skills, but he is not so easy to deal with, his face is cloudy, his mind is in a hurry, and he said with a smile: "Our family is drunk and talks nonsense, Zhong Gonggong should not take it seriously, haha, drunk nonsense is not counted." ”

Eunuch Zhong came over and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Grandpa Qiu, we are brothers, I won't say anything even if I know about you, but the words you said after drinking are not heard by our family, and many people on this ship have heard it, so sooner or later this matter will leak out." ”
