Chapter 63: The Most Glamorous Way to Die

It's a pity that this doesn't work for Zheng Guofan, the idle books in his stomach are millions of volumes, the books of the Ming people, it's the same thing if you don't read it, but look at the so-called Confucianism, everyone's big works, chew carefully, hey! It turns out that the ancients were sometimes very nonsense!

People's tastes are always more and more tricky, put Chen Jiru five hundred years later, he must also hold a book like [jumping off a cliff to get out of the world, eating sweet potatoes to become a magician, picking up an egg is a saint-level dragon egg, the Qiao family chick he met is an elf princess, picking up a down-handed man to be a follower is the Golden Sword Saint] This kind of book is full of relish, without him, I haven't read it.

But the books that the good officials read went to the sea, the books of the talented and beautiful women with the largest output in the Ming Dynasty, and gave them to the good officials to read, maybe he still thought that the paper was too thin to wipe his buttocks, and he would be scratched and get to his hands, look at the Book of Rites, yes, it turned out that Confucius also thought that ancient things were good, and modern things were not good, and they were the same as those of later generations!

Like Chen Jiru, if you have nothing to do, you can also take a look at "The Biography of Ruyi Jun with an Embroidered Image", "The Secret History of the Palace of Emperor Zetian with an Embroidered Portrait", "The History of Emperor Yang of Sui" and other books. Banma is resurrected, and there is no need to be obscene and degraded!

But this kind of contemporary people praise the resurrection of Banma is just such a strange text, and it is really not more than Erer in the eyes of good officials, the reason is very simple, he has five hundred years more knowledge than ordinary people.

Therefore, the obedient official only smiled at Chen Jiru's provocation, "So that the two virtuous brothers know that they originally wrote a book, called Ying Ning, but the first two days were just taken away by Mr. Yu Xuan of Fu Zitang's eight hundred taels of silver." ”

"What is that book about?" Cao Yuanyang and Dong Qichang's eyes lit up, and they asked out loud at the same time.

You must know that "Nie Xiaoqian" and "White Lady" are unprecedented in Taoism, it can be said that as long as you have read these two books, your eyes will shine, not to mention the story, the original words can still be written like this, and the female ghost and snake demon are also written so vividly, just like the beautiful woman next door.

Especially the criticism at the end of these two books, they all say that the author is not weak, but he is splendid in his belly, and he writes about wonderful pens and flowers, full of paper and clouds, and a big strange incident to vent his death. "Nie Xiaoqian" is followed by "Mr. Chixia's Examination", because Zhao Cangjing of the Deyi Workshop is an admirer of Shan Chixia, and Shan Chixia is praised in the sky and the earth, and finally in the end, this contemporary bearded guest is the prototype of the swordsman in the book, the old servant of the author's Yusan family.

In this way, the literati saw how not to admire, how not to want to see the murderer, if life is only as first seen.

The little maid Nie Xiaoqian listened to others ask, and naturally she was the first to read the books written by the young master, especially this "Infant Ning", the heroine was innocent, [not used to sleeping with the living] That sentence once made her laugh until her stomach hurt, she was quite eloquent, and simply told the story written by Ying Ning, and she seemed to have no heart and liver when she laughed, and the sentence that once made her laugh so much that her stomach hurt [not used to sleeping with the living] first made Dong Qichang and Cao Yuanyang stunned, and then laughed together, and the case was amazing.

"Brother Xian, do you have a handbook?" Dong Qichang only felt itchy, in history, this person who watched "The Golden Bottle of Plum" tirelessly stared at the following content, he was really an old bookworm, and he corresponded with friends to discuss "The Golden Bottle of Plum" for the first time in writing, leaving countless reveries for future generations.

The obedient official spread his hands, "It's really not." "The things written by the celebrities of the Ming Dynasty generally have a manuscript circulated first, unlike the good officials, who take it out directly and sell it for money every time.

Cao Yuanyang sighed, but Chen Jiru next to him said, "Ying Ning, but from "Zhuangzi. The Great Grandmaster". As he spoke, he said, "Those who kill the living do not die, and those who live do not live." It is a thing, all will be, all welcome; Nothing is destroyed, nothing is done. Its name is Xuanning. Those who are better will be the ones who will become later. ”

The obedient official was stunned, and sure enough, there is no luck in this fame! This Zhuangzi Grand Master is saying that it is not disturbed by external objects, and it conforms to the way of heaven to maintain its natural nature, isn't the infant Ning in the book such a delicate girl.

He thought about it carefully, these words were clearly slapping him in the face, and the subconscious meaning was that he was a female goblin again, dare to ask, are you Jiang Lang exhausted?

Raising his eyebrows, he didn't want to say it, so he just said directly, "There is a new book, and there is not much to write, and there are some entanglements, so I read the Book of Rites to relieve my boredom." ”

Chen Jiru secretly pouted, mud horse, what to pretend, read the rites to relieve boredom, do you think I am a child.

"Xiaoqian, take out the book I just wrote tens of thousands of words." The obedient official asked Xiaoqian to get a new book, and the little maid Nie Xiaoqian was stunned and whispered, "Young master, that book...... Isn't it hard for others to see? ”

Xiaoqian has also read books, especially by the dementia literary woman Yan Qingwei, what literati like and don't like, she knows a ** Cheng, the book written by the young master, she thinks it is good, but it is too good, she even feels a little afraid.

"You just have to take it." The good official is not afraid, I wrote and wrote, what are you afraid of, is it possible that there is a great hidden shot of the golden bottle plum? The Golden Bottle Plum used Song Huizong to imply Emperor Shizong Jiajing, this is well known, and when it comes to the officials below, it is no longer as simple as a concealment, it is directly a roll call, that is to say, many officials who appear in "Golden Bottle Plum" are real names, officials who were still alive at the time.

The Ming Dynasty can go to the book from time to time to run tricks, Jin Zhumei named a series of Jinshi such as Huang Jia, Lingyunyi, Di Sibin, etc., including Wang Shizhen, one of the seven sons of the Ming Dynasty who advocated [Wen Bi Qin Han, Poetry Bi Sheng Tang], and later generations studied that Jin Zhumei was written by Xu Wenchang, but now Mr. Qingteng Xu Wenchang is not living well in Shanyin, and he still has the heart to deceive the demented literary woman Yan Qingwei, a female disciple, with a filial pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

I'm not afraid of real-name books, I'm afraid of something! So the obedient official asked Xiao Qian to bring the book over, Xiao Qian grinded, with a reluctant face, Dong Qichang was timid and smart, and vaguely felt that the book he took out was a hint at the imperial court, and he wanted not to read it at all, but Cao Yuanyang and Chen Jiru next to him were eager to try, he had hemorrhoids on his asshole, and sat on the stone bench and twisted his head for a while, Xiao Qian took out a thin stack of paper from the sword house, he sighed secretly, and his ass sat on the stone bench.

Chen Jiru is a famous man, especially he wrote "The Biography of Li Gongzi", which was moving enough in the Ming Dynasty at that time.

Xiao Qian slowly walked to the stone table, Chen Jiru jumped up first, reached out and grabbed the manuscript paper, and Zheng Guofan next to him stretched out his hand and held it on his wrist, "Brother Chen Xian, look at it, get on the boat, but you can't get down." ”

His words implied a warning, Chen Jiru disdainful, cut, the "Water Margin" that killed officials and rebelled can be published, and I wrote "The Biography of Li Gongzi" and scolded the world's jinshi over and over again, and it will be published as it is, what else can you do about this?

Therefore, he held his hand steady, glanced at Zheng Guofan, and said, "I have also read Water Margin." He said, don't worry, even if you write a book about killing officials and rebelling, I will laugh it off and will not report you.

As soon as he said this, the obedient official let go, he smiled and tugged, but the little girl refused to let go, and the expression on her face seemed to be laughing and crying, "Chen Xianggong, do you dare to swear?" ”

Everyone was stunned, Dong Qichang blinked, got up and said: "Since Brother Zheng Xian's book hasn't been written yet, it's better not to read it, and when the book is completed, you and I will read it again, wouldn't it be good, otherwise, if you read half of the good book, it will be really hateful if it hangs in the air and can't go up or down." The obedient official laughed when he heard this, this is quite a taste of five hundred years later!

As a result, Chen Jiru didn't do it, "After I die, no matter how big the flood is, the Zen masters realize Zen, but they just say that the calendar is only ...... in the present", which faintly has the meaning of [I think, therefore I am], and besides, good and bad, I only know when I see it.

As he spoke, he smiled at Xiao Qian and said, "Little lady, don't worry, even if your young master scolds the current saint in the book, I just don't see it, if I leak half a sentence, I will be like Uncle Zhang who eats too much aphrodisiac and dies on a woman's belly." ”

This oath can not be said to be not vicious, the people of the time coaxed, the old Zhang Juzheng of the former cabinet is to eat too much aphrodisiac, and when he intersected with the concubine, the blood collapsed, and all the blood was ejaculated, and finally he died of excessive blood loss, he casually took out the gambling curse and swore it, but it made Cao Yuanyang's face flushed, and he couldn't help but take a sip, "Mr. Beggar Hua, what nonsense did you say, didn't insult our daughter's ears." ”

Xiao Qian's cheeks are also red, this Chen Xianggong is really a broken mouth, but the oath he made is poisonous, just believe him! Thinking, let go slowly.

Chen Jiru took it and couldn't wait to look at it, huh? The title of the book is not yet available?

Cao Yuanyang next to him had already poked his head over, watching Chen Jiru stretch out his hand to turn the page, and then next to Dong Qichang, the ants crawled in his heart, looking at Chen Jiru and Cao Yuanyang with four eyes fixed on the paper, after all, I couldn't hold back, mud horse, isn't it just a book, just read it, go to the sky, and then I will be admitted to the Jinshi, work harder, climb to Uncle Zhang's position, and protect this Zheng Fengzhang virtuous brother, as for the glamorous death like Chen Xiandi, forget it, thank you for not being sensitive.

He thought, and also leaned over, and the three of them watched carefully.

The content of this book is whimsical, and there are even some things that they can't understand, but some of the terms in it make them can't help but gasp, at the beginning, this book is about the trade alliance ignoring the empire's demand for a high degree of autonomy, and the embargo on Nabu threatens the empire, the court is bloated, and the bureaucracy is rampant, and at this time, the cabinet sent two people with imperial equipment to Naboo, and the negotiations with the business alliance broke down, and the two with royal equipment escaped from the business alliance and ran into Nabu Toast Padme.

These three people who read the book are all the top talents in the world, and they can see it almost at a glance that this is a place where the implicit businessman is indulgent, and even, the two famous scholars Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru know that the Nabu Tusi Padmei in the book is the meaning of Sanskrit lotus.

You must know that the merchants at the end of the Ming Dynasty were by no means the last first-class citizens of the later generations, they often had meritorious fame, and the collusion of officials and businessmen, and there were Austrian aid in the imperial court, and the officials and businessmen were one, but the business alliance in the book did not pay taxes and demanded a high degree of autonomy, and even threatened the local Tusi, and the actual deeds were like rebellion.

What was the largest power of the Ming Dynasty? It is an official or businessman who does not pay taxes.
