During the Ming Dynasty's Apocalypse, Ming Xizong Zhu Youxiao was incompetent, did not care about national affairs, only cared about his own fun, and was his "carpenter emperor" with peace of mind. Wei Zhongxian formed a party for personal gain, and in order to eliminate dissidents and control the government, he even falsely spread the holy decree to harm Zhongliang.
The mansion of an official in the capital is surrounded by brocade guards." Fence off the house, don't let anyone go, and watch your heads if there's anything wrong." A brocade-clothed guard hundred household chiefs rode on their horses and shouted.
Seeing that the brocade guards were properly arranged, the head of the hundred households rode to a certain sedan chair, got off the horse, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "Grandpa Sun, the small ones are all arranged." This grandfather-in-law is a native of Dongchang and is directly subordinate to Wei Zhongxian. I came to this house today to kill Zhongliang for Wei Zhongxian. He has a horizontal face, triangular eyes, a fat head and big ears, and a traitorous appearance.
After hearing this, Grandpa Sun got off the sedan chair and squinted at the head of the hundred households: "Lord of the hundred households, you must be cautious in everything, you have messed up the errand, angered the nine thousand years old, and lost your head, but you!"
When the head of the hundred households heard this, he was so frightened that he changed color: "What my father-in-law taught me is that the little one has already been ordered, and it is absolutely foolproof."
"Ahem, I'm also for your own good, okay, bring your people into the house with me."
The head of the hundred households then called more than 30 brocade guards and he went into the mansion with his grandfather.
In the mansion, everyone in the main hall is discussing the siege of the mansion by the brocade guards.
"Father, I have advised you before, the impeachment of Wei Zhongxian is absolutely impossible, the eunuch party is so powerful, the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, how can you move it? Why don't you listen, alas!"
"Bastard, the old man has been an official for more than 30 years, eating the king's luck and bearing the king's worries. Da Ming is now being plagued by the eunuch party, how can he sit idly by. It's a shame that you're the old man's son, and you don't have any blood at all."
"I'm not afraid of death, but you also have to think about your family, your little grandson is only three years old!" The child was playing on the ground and looked at them and called out to Grandpa.
The old man lowered his body and touched his grandson's head, full of emotion: "This matter is done by me alone, I will intercede with them when I ask for the guilt, spare the whole family, you run for your lives, stay away from this place of right and wrong, I hope that my death can keep you safe."
"Father, we can't leave you alone!"
"The old man is already at the age of entering the earth, you are still young, at least you have to leave a blood for me. Don't worry about me when the time comes."
"Father...... This ......" was just about to speak, the door was kicked open by the brocade guards, and Sun Gonggong and the others came to the lobby, and the brocade guards surrounded the family.
Grandpa Sun swept his eyes around, and said, "Lord Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, but your demeanor is still the same." "
The old man opened his mouth: "Grandpa Sun, what is your intention to surround my mansion with a brocade guard?" How can I say that I am also the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites of Zhengsanpin, and you dare to go wild in the mansion of the imperial court officials?"
Gonggong Sun sneered: "Hehehe, Lord Liu, you know what you have done, dare to impeach the nine thousand years old, you really eat the heart of a bear and a leopard gall!" Today's disaster is purely self-inflicted!"
Lord Liu: "I am a great country, how can it be bad in the hands of traitors, if you want to kill, you have to scrape and listen to the honor."
After hearing this, Gonggong Sun's expression was displeased, and he took out a holy decree and shouted loudly: "The left attendant of the Ministry of Rites receives the holy decree!"
Lord Liu and his family knelt down to receive the holy decree. Sun Gonggong read: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Liu Fucheng, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, does not practice diligent government, and discusses the important ministers of the country in vain. Investigate his formation of a party for personal gain, suspected of being a member of the Donglin Party, and now the Zhenfu Division and Jinyi Wei are investigating and handling it, and I will do this!"
After receiving the holy decree, Lord Liu scolded angrily: "The traitor Wei Zhongxian falsely passed on the holy decree, I want to meet the saint!"
Father-in-law Sun: "Bold, does Lord Liu dare to resist and disobey?"
Lord Liu: "I'll go with you, what are you going to do with my family?"
Father-in-law Sun: "Hmph, adults and young families are suspected of forming a party, and they will all be taken to the Zhenfu Division for detention."
Lord Liu turned around and looked at the small family, and sighed helplessly: "Alas, you want to take me to the Zhenfu Division just to give me a trumped-up charge and want to put me to death, today I am willing to confess my guilt and surrender to the law, and exchange my death for the safety of my family, what do you think?"
Grandpa Sun laughed after hearing this: "Lord Liu is an understanding person, if you are willing to die, you can also avoid many trivial matters, okay, as long as you confess your sins and die, let me pay the nine thousand years old, and I will keep your family fine."
Mr. Liu asked his family to take a pen and paper and immediately wrote a confession. Handed it to Grandpa Sun. Grandpa Sun looked at it: "Haha, Lord Liu is really a happy person, okay, I'll give you a happy death."
"Come on, give Lord Liu the crane top red."
Jin Yiwei put the crane top red on the table. Lord Liu picked up the crane top red, sat on the Taishi chair and looked at his family, and said to Grandpa Sun: "You and I must not break our promise, otherwise the old man will not let you go if he turns into a ghost."
Grandpa Sun: "Heh, Lord Liu, don't worry, our family will do what we say, you can go on the road with peace of mind."
After hearing this, Lord Liu sighed: "Alas, the sky is going to kill me, I only hate this world for being loyal and treacherous, the emperor, the old minister is gone." After speaking, he drank the crane top red and was out of breath at that time.
Seeing that Lord Liu was dead, Gonggong Sun was quite happy, saved a lot of trouble, and said to everyone in a straight way: "I am a good talker, you are limited to two days to do a good funeral for Lord Liu, and then pack up your things and get out of the capital for me.
After Sun Gonggong finished speaking, he took all the brocade guards out of the house.
Mr. Liu's family did a funeral for him, so he packed up his belongings, and the whole family left the capital and came to Jiangnan.
Time flies, and it comes to the present.
Inside an antique shop in Longquan Town. An old man came into the house to select antiques, about sixty years old, with a white beard, wearing a green coat, slightly thin.
The shopkeeper is also in his fifties, of medium height, wearing silk, and slightly fat. When the shopkeeper saw that it was an old customer, he greeted: "Mr. Zhao, you have come to buy antiques again. Even if you're a private school owner of a big family, you don't have to take care of the small shop business so much."
Mr. Zhao: "What, is this driving me away?" Money is yours. The old man loves to collect these antiques, and they look charming."
The shopkeeper said, "Where did you go, I am afraid that your family will oppose it and affect the harmony of the family."
Mr. Zhao said: "Hmph, I am the head of the family, who dares to control me, the three outlines and five constants, can the ancestors' rules and regulations still be messed up?"
The shopkeeper smiled: "That's what you said, then you can take a look."
Mr. Zhao continued to look for his treasure, looked at the jade and didn't like it, and then looked at the porcelain, but he was not interested. When I came to this Taishi chair, I was interested, stared at it as if I was obsessed, and touched the Taishi chair with my hand, and it felt a little chilly. So he asked the shopkeeper, "How much does this Taishi chair cost?"
The shopkeeper said: "The old gentleman has good eyesight, this is a serious Huanghuali Taishi chair in the Ming Dynasty, which was sold to me after the decline of the Ming Dynasty officials. However, "
Mr. Zhao asked, "But what?" The price is negotiable, and yours is indispensable."
The shopkeeper had a difficult face: "It's not about money, we're old acquaintances, let's be honest, this Taishi chair is a bit evil, it has been sold a few times, and strange things have happened in the family of the person who bought it, so they sent it back to me."
Mr. Zhao laughed: "What should I do, I don't say anything. I don't believe in ghosts and gods. It's okay, just sell it to me. How much does it cost?"
The shopkeeper saw that he insisted on refusing, so he said, "Old customer, you can give ten oceans."
Mr. Zhao saw that the price was cheap and happily paid for it, and the shopkeeper asked the young man in the store to help carry the Taishi chair back to Mr. Liu's home.
It was only because this old Mr. Zhao didn't believe that there were ghosts and gods in the Taishi chair, so he provoked the following story.
I don't know what will happen next, let's talk about it next time.
