Chapter 42 Information
What Chen Xiaodonkey didn't expect was that the word "open" and "da" that he thought he would find only by picking out the words jumped into sight from the moment he turned the book.
The first sentence of the opening sentence of the historical material should be a quotation from a certain original passage of the "History of the Qing Dynasty", which reads: "Since 1850, the thugs led by Hong Xiuquan have shown the opposite traces of disaster to the world. The government failed to arrest him, so that at the end of the year, he gathered a group of thugs to rebel, and at that time, Hong rebelled and called himself the king of heaven, and named his co-oppositionist Yang Xiuqing as the king of the east, and Xiao Chaogui, the king of the west, Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, Wei Changhui, the king of the north, Shi Dakai, the king of wings, and Emperor Xianfeng were furious, so he sent troops to suppress him. ”
When Chen Xiaodonkey saw the name 'Shi Dakai', he was in a trance, frowned and carefully recalled what he saw at that time, and said that he remembered these two words later, could it be that he remembered these two words badly, in fact, the correct order should be 'Dakai'?
Here Chen Xiaodonkey paid attention, and then looked down.
The historical material "Qing History 1850" is not all retelling the full text of the historical materials of the previous dynasties, but was rewritten by the professor of the Department of History of Peking University in combination with the original history, and a lot of annotations have been added in it.
For example, in the original history of the Qing Dynasty, there was a content that would never be mentioned, but it was mentioned in this historical material - the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the name of the Qing court at that time was 'Qing Demon'. And this point, in fact, coincides with the slogan of 'leaving half a piece of rotten cloth and enjoying it with demons' in the letter sent by Jia Xibei to Chen Xiaodonkey at the beginning.
I don't know when it started, but it was suddenly cloudy outside the library, and it wasn't until a strong wind with the smell of earth suddenly opened the window and poured in, and Chen Xiaodonkey suddenly came back to his senses. Looking at the first volume that he was about to finish, and the four volumes that were still piled high next to him, he rubbed his sore eyebrows.
From what he had read, he didn't get any useful information other than seeing the name 'Shi Dakai' appear many times.
But there was one thing that he found interesting.
Judging from the original Qing history quoted in the book, there should be a lot of contempt and indignation against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the following commentary from a certain professor has a lot of justification and praise for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
The professor who compiled the book did not explicitly scold even a single word of Qing history, but in the original history of the Qing Dynasty, how much insult he had to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, how much praise the professor had for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, compared with the two, there was a very special sense of impact.
Gradually, Chen Xiaodonkey piled up more and more books on his hands.
Because there are a lot of references in "History of the Qing Dynasty 1850", and the compilers have also given evidence references in the notes, Chen Xiaodonkey, who was afraid of missing any information, had to frequently go back and forth between the bookshelf and the desk to learn more from other books.
The torrential rain lasted for a whole noon, and Chen Xiaodonkey buried his head in the pile of books, until Han Zhidong hugged the cat brother and reluctantly came over to tell him that the museum was closing, Chen Xiaodonkey realized that it was already dark.
And it wasn't until this time that he was able to finish reading two of the five volumes, which happened to the incident that Uncle Jia mentioned before, Wei Changhui led people to wash the Dongwang Mansion overnight, and Yang Xiuqing was wiped out.
But in addition, at the end of this matter, Shi Dakai was mentioned again. Because among several important figures in the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom, Shi Dakai has always been good friends with Yang Xiuqing, so after Shi Dakai learned the news, he ignored Hong Xiuquan's order to summon him back to Tianjing to report on his work, and the historical process of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom seems to have taken some kind of mysterious turn here. And these contents, Uncle Jia didn't mention them at the time, I don't know if he thinks it doesn't matter, or he doesn't know that there is this stubble, or he deliberately didn't mention it for some reason?
For the next two days, Chen Xiaodonkey arrived at the time when the library opened, and left when the door closed, and at the same time, a very important information for him gradually surfaced.
Since the Tianjing Incident in 1856, the Yiwang Shi Dakai has had a trend of its own in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom system, and has never returned to Tianjing since then, and has been leading troops to fight against the Qing court, stopping and not listening to the announcement.
But the strange thing is that the historical materials that are quite colorful for Shi Dakai in the front are rarely mentioned in the back, until the end, except for the very thin sentence 'Shi Dakai defeated Sichuan', he never mentioned this person again.
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Chen Xiaodonkey stayed in this area for a long time, and his consciousness told him that there must be something very important in it that was not mentioned, and it was very likely to be related to the silk book in Yang Yong's coffin, mentioning his name, but even though Chen Xiaodonkey had almost flipped through all the official histories during this time period, he did not find any relevant records.
On the third day, when Chen Xiaodonkey finished reading all five volumes, he was wondering whether to let Zhou Xiaohai, or the beautiful Jin Mengzhi, who had met several times in the library in the past two days, help introduce a certain professor of history to learn about this situation, something happened.
At noon that day, many students from the library cast strange glances at Chen Xiaodonkey, Han Zhidong stood in front of the desk with a complicated face, and beside him, there were four people from the Peking University Security Office with a wary expression.
Han Zhidong said dryly: "Little donkey, your library card ---- forged?" ”
Is this the East Window incident?
Chen Xiaodonkey was slightly stunned, he didn't expect this worst-case scenario to happen so suddenly, and it was when he had just finished reading the information he wanted to know.
He didn't quibble, and smiled apologetically at Han Zhidong, who had bothered a lot in the past two days.
In fact, in Chen Xiaodonkey's imagination, it was just a forgery of a reading card to sneak in to read a book, a big fart. Even if he was discovered, it was just the result of being kicked out of the library, so he didn't take it to heart at all.
But today's events were beyond his expectations.
In the current Beiping, other things may be trivial, but all the things related to the campus of Peking University can easily become big things.
It wasn't until he was taken to the security office of Peking University and quickly handed over to the local police station that Chen Xiaodonkey suddenly reacted.
This calf thing seems to have made a big fuss!
"Old Han, help me take care of the cat." Before being taken away, thinking that Brother Cat was still with Han Zhidong, Chen Xiaodonkey quickly thought about how to get out, and at the same time quickly explained to Han Zhidong, who came over and gave him a ride.
Han Zhidong nodded.
He is not a few years older than Chen Xiaodonkey, and in the past two days in the library, the two have actually formed a little friendship.
At least Han Zhidong has a very good impression of Chen Xiaodonkey, a guy who has a little ruffian on his body and can bury his head in the stacks of books.
"Boy, do you explain it yourself, or will I explain it for you?"
In the interrogation room of the police station, Chen Xiaodonkey was handcuffed to a chair, and the man opposite threw his hat on the table, while the other man next to him was preparing to take notes.
This battle made Chen Xiaodonkey's eyelids jump slightly, this deflated calf forged a university certificate, which was not an important document, and suddenly became a prisoner?
"Sir, I didn't understand too much, what did you explain?" Chen Xiaodonkey said with a smile.
The man sighed and shook his head, grabbed his baton and walked behind Chen's little donkey and swung it down.
Bang!
There was a muffled noise in the interrogation room.
Chen Xiaodonkey only felt a block in his throat, and a huge pain hit his whole body, and that kind of hot feeling, he didn't have to think about it to know that there must be blood marks.
He gasped heavily, and was about to speak, when the man lifted up his clothes behind his back and pulled out the dagger that was not leaving him.
Seeing the dagger, the man's eyelids jumped, "Good guy, you still have a knife on you?" You're a great boy! ”
Based on the experience of being caught and beaten for many years, Chen Xiaodonkey knew that at this time, he would not benefit from any harm except for incurring disaster for himself.
He breathed lightly and said in a trembling voice: "Confess, I confess." ”
"Huh?"
The interrogating man was stunned for a second, and said in his heart, what the hell do you want to explain? He glanced at his colleague who was taking notes and said, "Say." ”
Chen Xiaodonkey squeezed his eyes, and tears fell out.
"I know I shouldn't forge my library card, but I can't help it---- before my father died, he said that if I can't enter Peking University to study, he can't look at it under Jiuquan, I came to Beiping, and I don't know how to be admitted to Peking University-----"
