Chapter 176: Once Upon a Time at Noon
readx;? Zhu Lin was silent after hearing this! In this era, human life is as cheap as grass mustard, and it is not as good as a livestock pulling a cart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infozi Yuge om whose fault. Is it true that riding on an animal is much more noble than riding on a horse-drawn carriage? As I saw with my own eyes in later generations, when a dog bites a person and a man kills the dog, it is strange that the man does not blame the dog. If nothing else, it's because the dog is a valuable dog breed, maybe a famous dog that ordinary people can't afford in their lifetime. Some people don't cry for the loss of a person's life, but they cry and make trouble for the death of a dog. What kind of funeral is it again, and it is to buy a cemetery. I don't understand, is the life of a dog more noble than the life of a man? Not much else, maybe you have a lot of money, maybe you have a lot of power, and everything can be unfair and unequal. But there is only one human life. No one will live one more time than anyone else. Even if you are supreme, it is still a life. There's a kind of you living twice for us to see. Nothing else is fair, but this one is absolutely fair. Accustomed to seeing all kinds of strange things happening in the fucking world in the future, the numb Zhu Lin will not ask and think more. But after coming to this era, what I saw was still this phenomenon of people not livestock. Zhu Lin secretly clenched his fists.
"Principal, why don't we hire a few sedan chairmen and buy a sedan chair. It's a lot less than raising our own horses. Zhao Mingdao said.
"No, it's still in a carriage. I'll find someone to get a pass another day, and the province will have to check it when it enters the inner city. Zhu Lin really couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart. That's all I can say.
Zhao Mingdao wanted to say something, but was pulled by Liu Fubei. Shook his head. In the doorway next to the noon gate, a little eunuch picked up the whip and threw it up, and the crisp whip sounded over. At this time, those officials began to rush in through the side door with a wat board. At this moment, another side door also creaked open.
Zhao Mingdao said, "Here, principal! ”
Sure enough, out of the hole in the city gate came an old eunuch holding the holy decree. The old eunuch cleared his throat and began to read. Zhu Lin and a group of candidates who were attending the palace examination all pricked up their ears and listened. "Oracle: All the people who come to try today, I wish you and others good results, the place of the palace test is in the side of the Chengtian Palace, and the three quarters of the hour make the test, all the kings please follow this Weng to the imperial city, no noise, no disturbance, all from this Weng's moderation. This kind of proclamation is like a holy decree. There is no need to kneel to connect.
After listening, all the candidates began to line up. Zhao Mingdao handed the exam supplies to Zhu Lin, but was persuaded by Li Zhenghua, who came over next to him: "Brother Zhu, there is everything there for the palace exam, and there is no need to spare these things." ”
Zhu Lin raised his fist to Li Zhenghua and saluted, and said, "Yo, isn't this Huiyuanlang?
Li Zhenghua was angry for a while. It's all to blame for being too talkative. You know how you got the membership, but you can't find out! You don't need to be so direct! You are still in the countryside, if you are in the countryside, these people must not know where they come from. Last time I went back, I investigated Zhu Lin's background carefully, I didn't know if I didn't check it, and I was shocked when I checked it. This kid is not very old, but his family business is not small, so capable! Qian Fucai's stupid pig is still more than other people's silver, and people show more from his fingers than your father's painstaking embezzlement. originally wanted to ask Zhu Lin out. Make a good hand. Who knew that this kid had closed his doors since he took the exam, and he didn't participate in the banquet and play held by the list. Just now, I saw Zhu Lin's subordinate carrying a large bag of things, and I came over to remind me blindly. This kid's reaction was so big. If you want to put aside the usual, when others say this, you will have been insulted a long time ago and walked away. It's true that I have self-cultivation, but it depends on what the circumstances! But not today, not to mention what punishment will be received for disturbing the order, I heard that this kid actually transferred the army to Beijing. This has to be thought about. In the first few days, my aunt and uncle told me not to have too many entanglements with this kid. Try to make friends if you can. It's really not good, and try not to mess with him.
Li Zhenghua smiled bitterly and said to Zhu Lin: "A certain talent, let Brother Zhu laugh, you are too modest in what you said! Brother Zhu, just take the official document for the examination." The rest is really not needed anymore. Let's go in together!"
Zhu Lin understood as soon as he heard it, and people must have investigated him. It can't be justified to make fun of people like this. It's a fait accompli, and there's no point in making fun of sarcasm. People also say that their measurements are small. Holding the official document for the examination, this official document for the examination is like the admission ticket of the later generations. However, it is much more chilling than the admission ticket of later generations. This queue is arranged according to the ranking of the examination, and Zhu Lin is behind Li Zhenghua. Zhu Lin was followed by a candidate whom Zhu Lin didn't know, and he couldn't remember what his name was when he thought about it. It is only known that the candidate's surname is Meng. In his thirties, he looks young and promising, and he looks good. The speech is also very kind, and the affection of a brother is very affectionate. In addition to the words full of words, the rest is not annoying to Zhu Lin. The chaotic queue took half an hour to get it done. If you want to say that there are more than 30 people, it should be lined up quickly, but there are so many people, and they are noisy there. For example, Qian Fucai is the most fierce there because of the ranking problem. The top 10 will be ranked second, and the second will not be ranked. It's just in the order in which the list is released. The top ten were quickly arranged, and everyone was familiar with each other, except for Zhu Lin, of course. Because of the various banquets held by others, everyone went out to go out for spring together, visited the Qinglou and the like, and did not participate once. In the eyes of everyone, Zhu Lin is still very mysterious. Usually there is no end to it. After meeting him once at the Luming banquet, everyone never saw him again. But fortunately, everyone has seen it, and it is not familiar, but it can be recognized. Then Qian Fucai was a little unconvinced, why should I be ranked last in the order of the list? The old eunuch saw that the team of more than 30 people had been reorganized for half a moment. secretly despised in his heart: This is far worse than the candidates who came to take the palace examination before, and the generation is not as good as the generation.
"You guys haven't taken the temple exam yet. If you don't participate, please go back, after so many palace examinations, no one dares to make such a fuss. Believe it or not, cancel your fame and go back to your hometown!" the old eunuch rebuked angrily. Not to mention, when the old eunuch was angry, Qian Fucai was also angry.
After the candidates who lined up showed the old eunuch the official document for the examination, they followed the old eunuch into the palace, and the three gates under the city wall just now were the noon gate, which was the noon gate that "pushed out the noon gate and beheaded the public". But it's not like what you see on TV, Zhu Lin really doesn't know, but it doesn't look like this noon gate is a place for killing people and beheadings! Listening to the old eunuch's statement, the court staff is often executed outside the noon gate, and the court staff is the emperor's rod beating ministers in the court, and it has been there for a long time, but now the grandfather of the emperor's grandfather has carried it forward. This thing used to be unbeatable, and the person who received the rod took off his clothes, but he put on a thick cotton coat and a thick felt blanket and beat the minister a few times, so that the minister would be embarrassed! Although it sounds very simple, those who have been tortured with the rod have to sleep in bed for a month to recover. If you don't die, you have to lose half your life. But I had never heard of a cane to death with a cane. The reason why it is said that the grandfather of the emperor today has carried forward the greatness of his grandfather is that there was a very powerful eunuch at that time, and it was the dead eunuch who received more than 3,000 knives to do the thing, and his grandfather cannot be blamed entirely on him, right? That guy is very hateful, and he hates the ministers participating in him. Therefore, when the dead eunuch carried out the court staff, he stripped the victim of his clothes, and did not give him cotton clothes, felt blankets, or anything, and beat him directly with his bare faces, and from then on there were dead people with the court rod. And he was killed at that time. There are all kinds of reasons for saying that the court cane is also varied. Anyway, if you provoke the emperor, I will stick you! In the past, I still thought that you were a courtier, and I would not fight to the death. Since the precedent of the dead man with a cane, it has been very powerful, and it has intensified the beating. Whether you kill or not depends on the emperor's mood. The emperor said that the meaning of beating was done, and when the prisoner was sentenced, he threw his toes out. It is estimated that the tortured person will have a small life, if the emperor is angry. Generally speaking, the life or death of the tortured person depends on the emperor's will. After this cane set a precedent for the dead, it also formed a set of rules, the prison officer's toes inward or outward determine your life and death, if the toes are outward into a figure-eight shape, it is 'real fighting', not dead and disabled, even if it is a minor injury, it will take half a year to recover. If the toes are pointing inward, that's 'hitting with your heart'. When the captain of the brocade guard saw that his toes were facing inward, then congratulations to the torturer, there was no hope of survival.
The old eunuch was more talkative, and his eyes were shining there talking about the rules of the palace staff, Zhu Lin looked at the old eunuch's eyes, and it was estimated that the old eunuch was not a prisoner. The old eunuch said this in such detail, it is estimated that it is just a disgrace for these new adults. Don't think that if you are all officials, no one will be able to govern you in the future. The same is true for those who are officials. The one in the back is Brother Meng, who was said to be pumping air conditioning there. After the side gate next to the noon gate, the main gate, Zhu Lin's and these people's. You are not qualified to go, let alone Zhu Lin, even if you are a first-class person, you are not qualified to go to the main gate. The main entrance was reserved for the royal family.
