Chapter 99: Wang San's rebellion

Zhengde said unhappily: "For the son of man, filial piety comes first, and the mausoleum of the first emperor is flooded, isn't this unlucky?" Isn't it a big deal? ”

Li Dongyang saw that Emperor Zhengde was extremely displeased, and hurriedly went out to play: "Your Majesty, any passive soil on the earth is against the way of nature, where are there so many mysteries?" Moreover, even from the perspective of feng shui, there is also a saying that the blessings and misfortunes of life are determined by heaven, and the virtuous can live in peace.

The so-called: 'The land of good and good can only be inhabited by moral people' Tailing is an auspicious place, why is it that suddenly the spring of Jinjing shows people that it has become a fierce place? The first emperor is the master of the Ming Dynasty, a rare Ming monarch since ancient times, is the first emperor not blessed to live there? ”

He used feng shui to refute feng shui, in fact, the meaning is the same as Liu Jian and Xie Qian, and he still thinks that Xu Guan and Wang Qiong are making a big fuss. Ma Wensheng couldn't stay a little when he heard this, although he has always respected the three scholars, it doesn't mean that he will obey the three of them.

Since Yang Ling and Liu Jin made a statement to the emperor to repeat this rule, Ma Wensheng was anxious by the officials, and was extremely dissatisfied with Yang Ling's disturbance of the government, so when he heard that the three bachelors defended Yang Ling and others, he couldn't help but say: "The university scholar has said this badly, since ancient times, there is a saying: 'One life, two luck, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin virtue, five reading, this is a major event that affects the variable of personal fate and the safety of the court and society, and should be treated cautiously, how can it be underestimated?'" ”

Hubu Shangshu Hanwen is in charge of the money bag of the Ming Dynasty, and now the folk rumors of the imperial court's tax increase are spreading rapidly, and the rich land of the capital is not enough, and the people in some places can't eat their stomachs, so they can only make a living secretly, if this decree is really implemented, he will bear the brunt of the embarrassment, so he is the most afraid of moving the tomb.

At that moment, he hurriedly flashed out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the sage has a cloud: 'You are not in your place, it is called the destiny of heaven, I will return to my destiny tomorrow, the road is prosperous, and the small art of feng shui is beside the door, what is the way?'" ”

The three scholars and the Tobe Shoshu agreed on the same opinion and talked about the right path of the Mandate of Heaven. The four scholars of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Punishment talked about feng shui and filial piety with the enemy.

Emperor Zhengde was dazed by their quarrel, so he had to helplessly ask Liu Daxia: "Liu Shangshu, what do you think?" ”

Liu Daxia bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that sending the fortune of the country and feng shui is ridiculous, if it is said that feng shui can determine the fortune of the country, then the country and the world do not need to be virtuous and virtuous, nor do you need the way of the sage, I think that when the Great Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Yuan people, as long as he gave his first emperor a feng shui treasure land, the Yuan people would obediently retreat." When the civil and military officials heard this, they couldn't help but snicker.

Liu Daxia waited for the ministers to be slightly less moved, and said: "So the ministers think that there is no need to have the scruples that Jinjing should not be reckless, and they can send the ministers of the court and the central government to check whether Jinjing has been manipulated or not, and it is clear at a glance."

Emperor Zhengde didn't know whether Feng Shui should be believed, but he always felt that it was more appropriate to believe that he had it, not to believe that he didn't, and after listening to what Liu Daxia said, he was about to summon the Qin Heavenly Eunuch to ask if he could check the golden well, and Wang Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "

Your Majesty, the minister heard that seven soldiers who were also witnessing the spring of Jinjing at that time died unexpectedly while building the emperor's mausoleum, isn't this the biggest evidence to cover up? Why do you need to send someone to the mausoleum to inspect, so that the first emperor Quanxia is uneasy, the minister thinks, even if the statement that damages the fortune of the country is too false, but these people are always true to deceive the king, and they should be severely punished, and they should be respectful and worried! ”

Zhengde made up his mind when he heard this, and patted the royal case and said, "Okay! Torture by the Punishment Department, see how long they are still hard-mouthed! ”

*******************************************************************************************

On the second day of the sixth month, thunder was heard early in the morning, but the rain was not heavy, and it was almost noon, and a small sedan chair appeared on the muddy country road in the rain.

Weiwu Bo Mansion, these days are shrouded in a gloomy mist, Han Youniang heard that Xianggong had an accident, she was frightened, she has been to the Criminal Department many times, but there is a strict curfew, and she is not allowed to enter at all.

After the accident in Tailing, Emperor Zhengde has been supervised by someone to supervise the emperor's mausoleum, and everyone is not allowed to go down the mountain, and the father and son of the Han family are also trapped in the mountain and can't come down.

Fortunately, after inquiring, she knew that although the prime minister had passed the court twice, he had not been punished, and none of the four ministers had confessed, so she was a little relieved. At this time, the young lady had just returned to the mansion accompanied by Yutangchun and Xue Limei, Gao Wenxin hurried over when she heard the news, and as soon as she entered the door and saw the young lady's face, she knew that she still hadn't seen Lord Yang today.

Gao Wenxin held the door and was silent for a long time, so he could only sigh lightly, walked into the room, grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on the young lady, and comforted him softly: "Madam, don't worry too much so as not to hurt your body." These two said, people outside are saying that it is the imperial court that wants to increase taxes to use the excuse that the emperor's tomb is not auspicious, and the lord is imprisoned for the sake of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Han Youniang's face was bleak, she just smiled forcibly when she heard the words, and the tears only rolled in her eyes, but she couldn't say a word.

At this moment, a little maid in Tsing Yi quietly stood at the door and said in a low voice: "Madam, the third son of Wang Shangshu's family is here." She also knew that the atmosphere in the two homes was very different, so she didn't dare to speak loudly.

Xue Limei raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and said angrily: "What is he doing?" My lord has such a big incident, who has the leisure to treat his wife? Kick him out! ”

Yu Tangchun hurriedly stopped and said: "Wait, he is the son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, maybe I can ask him to ask Wang Shangshu to come forward to intercede for the adult."

Xue Limei sneered: "Why don't you say he hasn't come to the door these days?" People all over the world say that the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry are not the ones who work together to arrange our master, and his father is the one who framed our master, will he save the master? ”

The little maid in Tsing Yi interjected timidly: "Madam, several girls, the third prince of Wang came alone, and he didn't bring his wife with him."

"Huh?" Han Youniang and Yutangchun glanced at each other, their expressions were a little confused, Han Youniang thought about it, gritted her teeth and stood up: "Some of our women and Taoist families can't come up with an idea, I'll go see him to see what his purpose is."

Gao Wenxin hurriedly stopped and said: "Madame, slow, adults are in trouble, the Wang family is always a little suspicious, Madame should not come forward directly, according to the little maid, it is better to have someone to probe him first."

Xue Limei said angrily: "I'll go to see him, his Wang Jiaen will take revenge, I want to see what his third prince says?"

Yutang Chun glanced at her and said, "Just your temper, it will only be bad if you go", she asked the young lady: "Madam, why don't I go and take a look, the third prince has been here many times, and the little maid is more familiar with him, first find out what his intentions are, and then make up your mind."

Han Youniang nodded and said, "Third Sister Su's surname is calm, so I'll trouble you to go."

The low and suppressed thunder rolled through the sky, Wang Jinglong stood at the door of the middle hall, looked at the gloomy sky, and then looked at the old housekeeper standing on the side with his hands down, the old housekeeper looked blank, he didn't let him go to the study today, nor did he serve a cup of tea, Wang Jinglong couldn't help but smile slightly, but his heart was very happy.

He and a few friends wanted to overthrow Yang Ling, but they couldn't catch him. Zhao Yong came up with the idea to let him go to Yang's Mansion to find an opportunity to plant dirt and frame him, such as bringing some prohibited or over-the-top things when he came to the door to seek medical treatment and give gifts.

But Wang Jinglong is not stupid, Zhao Yong asked him to quietly carry bright yellow cloth in the gift, but this method is too conspicuous and easy to be discovered, and once something happens, he can't get out of it, so he has been timid and afraid to carry it out.

The ridiculous thing is that these sons are like the genius mouse who wants to put a bell on the cat, the idea is good, but if they really let them do it, they are helpless.

Later, Wang Jinglong saw two rockeries in the pond of the flower courtyard in the back window, one on the left and one on the right, and suddenly he was whimsical, and wanted to persuade the Yang family to build another rockery in the pond.

It's a pity that although this method is ingenious, he has never been able to see Yang Ling, if he let his wife take the liberty to talk to Mrs. Yang about garden architecture and fear of arousing suspicion, until Wang Qiong and others suddenly launched and took Yang Ling with lightning speed, he would not be needed.

However, the rumors of the tax increase in the capital became more and more outrageous, and the people of Pingtou almost regarded Wang Qiong, Xu Guan and others as annihilators who absorbed the people's fat and people's ointment, but Yang Ling had a good reputation among the people and became a loyal minister who asked for his life for the people.

Wang Jinglong knew that he was angry, but at this time, a scale of gold in the Flower Pavilion heard that Yang Ling had fallen, and he was excited to tell the three Qing people who were forcibly bought by the Rite Department Wai Lang who went to visit the kiln, Wang Jinglong's wife was sick, and there was no concubine, and he was also a patron who often lingered in the Qinglou, and he had some friendship with the Wai Lang, and after listening to him, he thought that the strange goods were habitable, and he suddenly had an idea.

He thought to himself that if he could incite Yutangchun and Xue Limei to bite Yang Ling and shape him into a hypocrite who oppressed the good and forcibly bought beautiful women, then the good image he left for his wife to resist the holy decree would collapse, as long as he had this matter to do, he could make up more things to arrange him, and ruin his reputation, who would believe that he was asking for his life for the people, and his father's reputation would not be affected.

Wang Jinglong didn't discuss it with a few friends, so he hurriedly ran to the door. In his mind, with his appearance, talent, and family background, it was not easy to win the heart of a beautiful woman from a Qinglou.

Yutangchun came to the middle hall, and the old housekeeper saw it and hurriedly said, "Miss Su is here."

Yu Tangchun waved his hand to him, signaled the old servant to retreat, and quietly walked behind Wang Jinglong to bow down, and said softly: "Little maid Su San has seen Wang Gongzi."

Wang Jinglong paused for a moment, then turned around and said in surprise: "Oh, it's Miss Su who is here, rude, rude."

Yu Tangchun said: "Prince Wang, please sit in the hall, didn't Mrs. come with Gongzi?" Childe, there are some things in the Yang family now, and Sister Wenxin is a slave who is a prisoner, if Childe wants to take her back to treat his wife, my wife will not dare to take it."

Wang Jinglong walked to the middle hall and sat down, and sighed: "Wang is not here for the illness of the cheap, Yang Ling has an accident, and Wang has also heard about it, alas! Yang Ling was deeply favored by the saint and had a bright future, and it was really heartbreaking that he could not imagine that he would join forces with some corrupt officials and corrupt officials to deceive the imperial court."

Yu Tangchun's face was angry, but he didn't know what his intention was when he suddenly came in the rain alone, so he had to endure the anger. Wang Jinglong saw her standing in front of her silently, and hurriedly said, "Miss Su, please take a seat."

Yutangchun owed, and said lightly: "In front of the son, how can there be a little maid's seat?" ”

Wang Jinglong waved his hand and said, "Where did Miss come from?" Miss knows how to answer gifts and is naturally beautiful, and Wang has never regarded Miss as a maid."

Yu Tangchun smiled faintly and avoided the topic: "Today, the prince came in the rain, not to see his wife, but what is the matter?" If the matter is so important that it is inconvenient for the little maid to know, the little maid can go and ask the lady to come out."

Wang Jinglong hurriedly got up and stopped: "Miss and slow, since Miss is asking, then Wang is presumptuous, and he doesn't dare to hide from Miss, Wang is here today, just for Miss Su."

"What?" Yutang Chunqiao's face was stunned, and she said in disbelief: "Wang Gongzi is here for the little maid?" ”

Wang Jinglong saw that there was no one else in the hall, and smiled strangely: "Miss is in the Yang Mansion, is she really just a maidservant?" ”

Yutangchun's eyes moved, and he said with a puzzled face: "What does Wang Gongzi mean by this?" ”

Wang Jinglong sneered: "Hypocrite, what a hypocrite, since he covets Miss Miss's beauty and hires Miss Home, he should cherish Miss well." It's really heart-wrenching that he actually bought a charming woman like a girl home for the sake of his good reputation of valuing love and righteousness, and did the work of concubines, but he was a slave and a maid! ”

Yutangchun listened to his tone, and seemed to think that he was Yang Ling's concubine, but he was usually called as a girl, and he didn't know whether he was a concubine or a maid, and what he cared about when he came in the rain, he was shocked in his heart, so he didn't refute it.

Wang Jinglong saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, and he was even more sure that what he expected was good, and he said proudly: "Yang Ling spent 10,000 taels of silver to redeem the girl from the Flower Pavilion, but she was used as a slave, who would believe this?" Doesn't he have eyes in the world? Hum! still have to pretend, it's a pity that you, girl, are so talented and good-looking, you should have been cared for like a pearl and jade, but you ended up like this."

Yutangchun blinked a pair of wonderful eyes, and when he saw that this prince was heartbroken, he almost beat his chest and cried, but he turned around, but he still didn't get to the point, so he had to mutter: "Why did Wang Gongzi say this, in fact, my family treats me very much, and has never succumbed to me."

When she said this, she thought that Yang Ling had offended the Son of Heaven this time, maybe she would be beheaded and robbed of her home, and she had just had sustenance in her heart, but she ended up like this.
