Chapter 2099 Flower War (seven)

The common people love to watch the fun, whether it is to go to a temple fair or watch people beheaded, Ju and his friends also went to see it once, but they went a little late, even if they stood on tiptoe and stretched their necks, what they saw was still the same. The human head couldn't see what was going on in the field at all.

  During the Ming Dynasty, the Dharma field was located in the West City, located in the inner city. After the Manchus entered the capital, the inner city became the "Yisetian" where the Eight Banners were stationed, and the Dharma field was also changed to "Cashikou" in the outer city.

  The purpose of placing the execution ground in a place with a large flow of people is to let more people see it and act as a deterrent. However, the people at that time believed in "filling the shape with the shape", which means that where you eat, there are many people who took the silver of the white flowers and waited to buy the blood of the executed prisoners from the executioner and take it back as "medicine."

   You can't see the liveliness, but it doesn't prevent you from listening to the liveliness. That is, there, a group of people listened to passers-by talking about the legend of "Drum Demon".

  The person specially wrote the word "drum" next to "gu" for Nick, "These two words have one sound, but two meanings. The drum is the one that makes a thumping sound."

But at that time, when Juren heard what a passerby said, the first thing that came to mind was the Gu in Yunnan, because Zhili's "soul calling" sorcery was different from other regions, and a strange insect appeared. It is said that this strange insect came from a neighboring province. In Shanxi, which can bite to death, images of the worm drawn by anonymous people are posted in many public places, and citizens circulate leaflets predicting famine, plague and ghosts.

Let people guess that the legendary monster is probably related to Zhang Tingrui, a student from Shanxi, but "rumors stop at the wise", BJ is densely populated, and rumors spread faster than rumors. ", too lazy to pay attention to these white dings. It's stupid to put a spell on the door, but don't mind it. It's just that the vigilance of the capital is obviously stricter than before, probably because because the governor of Zhili died, the Military Aircraft Department is directly responsible for the security of the imperial city.

  Fang Guancheng, the governor of Zhili, was one of the "five governors" of Qianlong.

The Fang family was implicated because in the Ming history case, the Hanlin editor Dai Mingshi's "Nanshan Collection" cited Fang Guancheng's grandfather Fang Xiaobiao's chapter on King Gui's resistance to Qing, and the Fang family was implicated. His grandfathers were exiled to HLJ. Fang Guancheng and his brother were exempted from exile because of their young age. They were sent food to Qingliangshan Temple in Nanjing and lived on the aid of monks.

Although his life was saved, Fang Guancheng did not have the chance to take the imperial examination in his life. Fang Guancheng, who was extremely poor, fled to the capital and made a living by testing characters outside Donghua Gate. Shi Fang Guancheng was selected as a counselor.

   This is another way out for "scholars" apart from the imperial examinations, but they can be recommended by dignitaries. Fang Guancheng, who had no chance of official career, suddenly became a cabinet secretary, and in the early years of Qianlong, he even entered the military aircraft office.

   This made everyone think, why not follow Fang Guancheng and worship in the **** shogunate? This is much more meaningful than eating, drinking and playing in the city and wasting time.

In fact, there are many people who think like him, and the threshold of the rich and powerful family has been leveled, not only those who do not have official positions like Juren, but those with official positions are also running. They brought a lot of rare gifts, as well as poems and songs. "Knock on the Door".

   Juren’s net worth can’t compare to them, they can’t buy rare gifts, and there are many people who write poems and songs. How can we stand out from these people?

   He pondered for a long time, and one day when he was passing by a church, he suddenly saw a foreigner dressed as a Manchu official getting off the sedan chair.

   He has seen translators in Fujian, and there are many Mongolians in the capital. How much talk? Immediately, he became enlightened like a daigo, and went to the church to find a priest to learn a foreign language.

   At that time, Lang Shining, a popular man in the imperial court, had already died, and he was originally replaced by the French Wang Zhicheng, who was famous for his skills in copper engravings. After Qianlong quelled the Zhun Geer rebellion in the 20th year, Lang Shining, Wang Zhicheng, Ai Qimeng and An Deyi first drew line drafts, and with Qianlong's consent, they were sent to France through Guangdong Customs to make copper engravings.

   However, Lang Shining died the second year after the drawing was sent away, and before he could see the finished product, Wang Zhicheng resigned, and it was obviously not him who got off the sedan in official uniform. In the palace, worship is often accompanied by a car. Even if the weather is not as hot as summer, Qianlong still did not return from Rehe. This may be because the demon party has sneaked into the capital.

   This scene is staged almost every day in the capital. Usually in the early morning before dawn, a water truck will enter the city from Xizhimen, and then it will be transported to the Forbidden City.

The water was taken from Yuquan Mountain, which is more than 20 miles away. In fact, there is a well in the city, but I don’t know why no one takes the water from the well to drink. The maids washed clothes or used it to put out the fire after the palace was on fire.

So the people outside the palace said that the princesses, concubines, and ministers in the palace fought openly and secretly, especially the harem beauties, who secretly poured medicine into the well. It may be mutual communication. She poisoned one well, and the other wells were also poisoned, so the palace went outside to fetch water.

   It is said that when Yongle built the Forbidden City, he experienced many disasters, and he dug up a large python. Many people confuse the snake with dragon and Jiao, probably thinking that this big python was used to protect the palace.

   At that time, Juren was young, and he was not afraid of the sky and the earth. Later, he learned that the official who got off the sedan chair was from the Qin Tianjian. In addition to the abnormal celestial phenomena, thunder and lightning were also a warning from heaven.

  The summer of Qianlong’s 33rd year was very hot, but no torrential rains poured down to cool down the temperature. To be more serious, this is a sign of drought, and the destructive power of drought on farming civilization is inestimable.

This also involves a major case in the Qianlong period. The so-called "donation of prison" means that the government allows some people to donate grain in exchange for the qualification of a student in exchange for the qualification of a student during a poor harvest. The student is the abbreviation of the national child's student supervisor, usually obtained by the official position or shadow of the father If you are qualified, if you fail the exam, you can enter the prison and continue to study. After three years, you can continue to take the exam. The students live in the dormitory and manage the meals. Not only can you save a living expenses, but it is also a kind of honor.

  Wang Jiwang was also a concubine during the Qianlong period, and later bought a magistrate with money. A few years later, he was promoted step by step, and the official became the governor of Zhejiang, and temporarily served as the governor of Zhejiang. The secret of Wang Jiwang's ascent is to use money to open the way, give bribes and gifts, and curry favor with his superiors. In the thirty-ninth year of Qianlong, he was transferred to Gansu as the chief envoy.

   He took advantage of the Shaanxi-Gansu Governor Leer Jin fainted, converted the grain into silver taels, held an auction for the qualification of "supervisor", and lied to the court about the drought, and fabricated that the "supervisory grain" was used for disaster relief. In fact, he split all the money he donated, from the governor to the state and county officials.

In Gansu Province, 20 people embezzled more than 20,000 taels of disaster relief silver, 11 people from 10,000 taels to 20,000 taels, and 26 people from 1,000 to 9,000 taels. Prefect Jiang Quandi and others are not included. As much as 3 million taels were copied from Wang Jiwang's house.

   "Donating prisons and taking money out of money", he did it without knowing it, and made up lies to fool Lu Erjin, and Lu Erjin also answered the "four puzzles" of the court according to his arrangement. His basket was poked out because Qianlong went to Jiangnan. Qianlong was not Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Just got suspicious.

Wang Jiwang soon realized that something was wrong. He returned to the funeral of his mother and left the position of the governor of Zhejiang. He retained the position of pond worker. In the 46th year of Qianlong's reign, Agui, a scholar, was ordered to investigate the seawall project in Zhejiang. Is there any greed? As far as we know, after the investigation, there are about 60 people who have been rectified in succession, and more than 40 people who have been spared from death.

   Of course, at that time, Juren didn’t know what would happen in the “future”. The **** is somewhat similar to the “Iron Voucher for Danshu” in the Tang Dynasty, also known as the Gold Medal for Avoidance of Death. Ordinary aristocratic titles are downgraded every time they inherit a generation, but the **** hereditary will not be downgraded. In theory, even if you commit a capital crime such as treason, you can block a block with a death-free gold medal. Juren thought at the time As long as he can have good luck like Fang Guancheng, he would like to try it if he has the chance.

Mandala is a Sanskrit transliteration, which means mandala. When practicing esoteric law, a circular or square earth altar will be built in the field to invite the past, present, and future Buddhas to visit, while the "devil" will be blocked. outside the mandala.

   But what if a bug sneaks into the mandala representing safety?

  Not all women in the harem like to argue, and some people come and go quietly in the Forbidden City.

There are many plants in Yunnan, especially the camellia, which is famous all over the world. The camellia, also known as Tumi, is the last flower in the flowering season. Buddhism believes that no flowers will bloom after the Tumi. Therefore, the Tumi flower represents a kind of beauty of the end. If it is to describe a woman If so, youth is gone.

   There is no cold palace in this world. It is only because the emperor will not go to those places that it becomes a cold palace.

  Silver candles are painted on the screen in the cold autumn light, Qing Luo’s small fan flutters the fireflies, the sky is as cool as water at night, lying down to watch the Altair and Vega.

According to legend, in the Tang and Song Dynasties, when the curfew was enforced in the evening, Jin Wuwei would beat the street drums. Everyone who did not have children, illnesses and other emergencies could not continue to hang out on the streets, and they could not go out until the drums sounded the next day. The East and West cities, which were trading venues, had to wait until the city drum sounded before they could enter the door. By the Song and Yuan Dynasties, they were gradually abolished. In the Ming Dynasty, there was the Dengwen Drum, which means that officials and people could beat the drum to complain about their grievances.

The emperor's original intention was to avoid unjust cases, but the prisoners' families could play drums before the execution or even on the day of the execution, and then the execution would be suspended, so the family members played the drums as it approached the evening, which would be delayed until late at night, and the prisoners' families would Can take the opportunity to replace the person who died.

   As long as someone lives, whose life is not life?

   Juren is not Zhang Tingrui, he is alone, he has no uncle and father, but the joy in the eyes of others is the pain of his relatives.

   Outsiders sentenced him to death, but his family members were not sure. This child was obsessed and stupid in reading and reading. He couldn't commit the same kind of slashing as the thief Jiang Yang for "this matter".

  So, will Zhang Tingrui really die?

  Georgianna thought of Buddy Crouch Jr., his father and his mother.

   "You're really free."

   She followed the sound and saw that it was Carolan Lestrange.

   "How do you..."

   "Your little moldu is angry," Carolan said. "You have to be careful."

   "Moldu?"

   "That's how we call Muggles," Carolan said indifferently. "Napoleon is in a rage now."

   After saying that, Carolan turned around and left, as if saying something trivial.

   Moldu=moudebulbe

   Mou is timid

   Bulbe
