Chapter 271, Impostor
Zhang Dongyuan returned drunk, and Mo Di Shan Yu asked his guards to escort Zhang Dongyuan back to his mansion. It is said that it is a mansion, but it is just an ordinary courtyard house of a large merchant family. This is still under the personal arrangement of Mo Di Shan Yu, Zhang Dongyuan will have this kind of transcendent treatment, and the other princes are more likely to live in their domed tents, the ancestors of the Great Xia Kingdom have been like this for generations, and they have long been accustomed to such a way of life.
Although Zhang Dongyuan was drunk, his heart was like a mirror, watching Mo Di Shan Yu's wife in Daxia who was busy helping him to bed, and busy boiling water to wipe his back and wash his face. Zhang Dongyuan doesn't have much affection for this dark-skinned, woman named Azura, the two of them just make do with each other, this woman, like most Daxia women, is illiterate.
But this woman doesn't like brave and fierce men like other women in Great Xia, but puts all her thoughts on him, a man who has to wrap his mink fur even in summer. Other women laughed at her man's powerlessness, but she proudly said that her man had traveled thousands of miles and read thousands of books. She also gave birth to a child for him, who is seven years old this year, a little boy who is darker than his father and whiter than his mother.
Tears flowed from the corners of Zhang Dongyuan's eyes, and then he saw that his Daxia wife was panicking, and while wiping away his tears, she gently asked him, did he miss his home in Dashang? Zhang Dongyuan shook his head, and said softly in her ear: "Where you are, it is home!"
Although this Daxia woman named Azulan had dark skin, Zhang Dongyuan still blushed instantly when she saw her, she probably never thought that this man who was silent when he returned home would one day talk to her, and she was at a loss. He took her in his arms, she hid her face in his arms, and they gasped and began to undress each other......
The woman was tired and curled up in his arms like a cat and fell asleep, Zhang Dongyuan looked at the ceiling of the shed, remembered the big merchant country in the distance, and remembered his former home, Pengjiang County, Wanghai County, Lingnan Province, and Zhangjiazhuang outside the city......
In Zhangjiazhuang, more than half of the people have the surname Zhang, and they are basically of the same clan and clan. Zhang Dongyuan is the second oldest in the family, has an elder brother and a younger sister, the family is very poor, his father Zhang Dacai does long-term work for the landlord's family, and his mother Song Xiaojuan raises silkworms and weaves cloth at home, barely supporting a family of seven people, including grandparents.
When he was more than four years old, Zhang Dongyuan was very fond of reading and literacy, and often went to the window of a nearby private school to eavesdrop on Mr. Reading, and was later discovered by Mr. Peng surnamed Peng, so Mr. Peng symbolically accepted his father's penny, which was considered tuition, and accepted this poor student. Zhang Dongyuan studied and read with his husband in a private school during the day, and practiced hard after returning home at night.
At the age of fifteen, with the help of the teacher Mr. Peng and his classmate friend Han Linwang, Zhang Dongyuan had the travel expenses to take the exam, and he became a showman. Two years later, the township examination was funded by Mr. Peng and Han Linwang, and Zhang Dongyuan went to Meizhou County to participate in the township examination.
The children of poor families have been lifted and become the masters, which is not only a glorious ancestor, but also enjoys real privileges, even if they fail to pass the Jinshi, they can also mix a petty official in the future, and if they are lucky, they may be able to mix a county order. There is also a Xiucai surnamed Zhang in the neighboring village
, called Zhang Dongyuan, also participated in the township test, but his name fell to Sun Shan.
In fact, this Xiucai named Zhang Dongyuan has mediocre skills, and it is all luck to be able to be a showman, let alone think about it. However, this talented Zhang Dongyuan has a good cousin named Huang Nanzong, who is the second housekeeper of the Lingnan Palace.
Steward Huang heard that his cousin was also named Luosun Mountain, and he was very sorry, and accidentally learned that the eighth place in the Lingnan Daoxiang test was also from Pengjiang County, also surnamed Zhang, and his cousin's name was different from the same phone. Steward Huang was overjoyed and personally visited Zhang Dongyuan's house, promising that as long as Zhang Dongyuan could make his cousin impostor, he could give him a house, a land or silver. Zhang Dongyuan's family naturally refused, and after being admitted to the promotion, how could they lack houses, land, and silver in the future?
On the third night, Zhang Dongyuan's family disappeared, and the whole family was tied up to the Lingnan Palace, Huang Nanzong coerced and lured again, "Zhang Dongyuan, as long as you are willing to give up this lifting quota, I will ensure that you have glory and wealth in front of the prince!"
Zhang Dongyuan and his family resolutely disagreed, and Zhang Dongyuan directly questioned this Huang steward, "Since you have such great ability, why don't you ensure that your cousin has glory and wealth in front of the prince, and you have to compete for my small quota of lifters?"
Zhang Dongyuan was slapped by a guard surnamed Cheng in the Lingnan Palace, this palm is the famous Hantian palm in the martial arts, the guard surnamed Cheng already knew the truth of the matter, and felt that it was miserable enough to be impersonated, so his subordinates showed mercy, and Zhang Dongyuan was lucky enough to pick up a life. The rest of the family was killed by another guard.
In the middle of the night, the Lingnan Royal Mansion drove out of a carriage, which contained the corpses of Zhang Dongyuan's family, and was pulled to the wilderness to throw the corpses and feed the beasts. Zhang Dongyuan, who woke up at dawn, saw that the family had died unexpectedly, so he struggled to escape with hatred, and went to Meizhou County to guard the yamen to sue Huang Nanzong, the second housekeeper of the Lingnan Palace.
At that time, the Meizhou county guard was called Chen Chengliang, and was scolded by the people of Meizhou as Chen Chengluo, Chen Chengwolf took Zhang Dongyuan's case, and was shocked, this person dared to sue the palace steward? Lingnan Wangfu is also a small act can be offended? So Zhang Dongyuan was sent to prison for false accusations.
The next morning, the jailer found that the man was cold and hard, but he was frightened, and quickly reported to his boss, so Chen Chengliang ordered the body to be carried out directly and buried.
It is also considered that Zhang Dongyuan's life should not be killed, if the cold Tianzhang injury does not occur, Zhang Dongyuan will have to die in the hands of the wicked. After Zhang Dongyuan woke up, he knew that he couldn't sue in Lingnan, so he stumbled, begging all the way to make a living, and went to the capital to sue.
Finally arrived in the capital, a case directly sued Dali Temple, I don't want the then Dali Temple Qing Yan Zhengfan and Lingnan King to have a very good personal relationship, so Zhang Dongyuan was beaten again, saying that he falsely accused the palace and was thrown into prison, but the cold Tianzhang attacked again, and was abandoned again.
Zhang Dongyuan, who woke up again, still wanted to sue the emperor, but he heard from the people in the capital that Emperor Huizong had not been in court for a long time, and he couldn't even see the prime minister.
Dignified.
The old man who was fishing listened to Zhang Dongyuan's tragic experience, shook his head and said: "If you sue the emperor, he may not be in charge of you, our Sect Master Hui is a well-known bastard, and he doesn't care about anything except women and pills for a day." Once you are in charge, if you don't get it right, you will have to get rid of the heads of several officials, and your heads will be worth as much as the heads of officials? Won't this case have to be investigated by other officials? Your family is all dead, who is willing to prove it to you? At this point, will the people in your village not be afraid of dying to prove it to you? Besides, the king of Lingnan is also a relative of the emperor and his family, and he can still look at you if he doesn't look at his relatives?"
Zhang Dongyuan was full of despair by the old man who fished, so he had to ask: "Old man, what do you say I should do now? I am now in a difficult place to run to a family, a country is difficult to vote, and every inch is in chaos, please show me a clear way, please show me a clear way!"
The old man who was fishing thought for a long time, "Young man, you have no hope in the Great Shang Country! If you want to take revenge, you can only go north and flee to Great Xia, you have read so many books, and when you go to the poor countryside of Great Xia, are you still worried about having no food to eat? If you take refuge in a high-ranking official, you will not have to worry about the rest of your life!"
The old man who was fishing generously donated 20 taels of silver to Zhang Dongyuan as travel expenses, and gave him a manuscript of the previous dynasty's book "Wugong Taoluo". Zhang Dongyuan thanked him for his kindness, and when he left, he must ask Engong's name, and the old man who was fishing laughed, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you remember my name or not, since you really want to ask, just remember that I am called Wan Deyan, and we should have a chance to meet in the future!"
Zhang Dongyuan said goodbye to Wan Deyan and went all the way to the northwest, on the way he read the "Wugong Tao Strategy" used in governing the country until it was ripe, and he could simply memorize it backwards, and then burned the book. I finally managed to reach the border, and when I arrived at Yangguan, I happened to meet the people of Daxia who came to plunder the property and population. Originally, a Great Xia cavalryman wanted to kill him with a knife, but Zhang Dongyuan shouted, "I read thousands of books, don't you need talents in Great Xia?"
It happened that a little prince of Daxia was passing by, and when he heard him shouting like this, he felt that this person was still talking so calmly when he was dying, which was very interesting, so he rescued him from the hands of the Daxia cavalry and brought him back, this little prince was the later Mo Di Shan Yu. After Mo Di rescued Zhang Dongyuan, he didn't think that this person would be a talent, but he just thought that this skinny man would talk big, and it should be good to get it back and raise him as a harlequin.
As a result, one day, Hu Sunshan Yu sent Mo Di to do something, but Mo Di was stopped by the lieutenant who was in charge of guarding the city gate halfway, on the grounds that there was no warrant from Da Shan Yu, and no one was allowed to leave the city! Mo Di couldn't get out of the city, there was nothing to do, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
At this moment, the thin man who was raised by him like a clown spoke, "Since you are on the orders of Da Shan Yu, who dares to stop you, you just cut it directly, what are you afraid of?"
Mo Di suddenly realized, rode on the horse and went to do something, the captain who guarded the city gate really came to stop again, Mo Di shouted, "I am acting on the orders of Da Shan Yu, who dares to stop me?"
Since then, Mo Di was impressed by this thin man, and talked to him about his life experience, feeling that this person with the surname Zhang was so pitiful, so he gave him the maid in the house, Azulan, as his wife.
