I am the king of the dead

Commander Tang was floating on the sea, while Emperor Ming listened to storytellers in the capital.

To be precise, the Ming army triumphantly returned from Liaodong, and Zhu Qiyu, Yu Qian and Li Binyan went out to listen to storytellers, and what they listened to was "The Sequel to Outlaws of the Marsh".

Zhu Qiyu's identity is still a wealthy businessman from Shandong, the Huang family in Laoshan, and his actions are not considered extravagant, but he can get a private room. Today's trip is not a lot of fun to watch, it's just talking to Yu Qian and Li Binyan.

Love is divided, love is divided, and only when you come and go twice can you have love.

Zhu Qiyu really doesn't like to go to those brothels in this pickle place of the capital. The lyrics and music he sings are too elegant. He has only been there once, and he is too lazy to go again. Instead, he likes the tea houses and storytellers' restaurants. These places where the three religions and nine streams gather are the most popular places for the emperor to see.

In this brothel, there are all the scenes where the yamen are jealous of a prostitute. In fact, the prostitute is just an excuse, and the yamen are fighting for the status of the family.

What's the point?

If you have the ability to go to the sea, fight him with real knives and guns to see who has the largest land, who has the most eunuchs, and whose family has the most plantations, why is it necessary to fight over a prostitute and get jealous? ?

Going to the sea to fight depends on strength, if you can't fight it out, you have no ability, if you fight it out, the yamen will gain face, and Daming will also plunder Wanfang a little bit more, everyone is happy, isn't it beautiful?
"This is really unsightly. Grandpa Huang actually likes to listen to this kind of script?" Li Binyan tasted the repertoire off the stage a little bit, and was also taken aback. He didn't know why His Majesty took him to listen to this kind of Vasheri. storytelling.

Yu Qian can't wait to kick Li Binyan's feet. It's been 13 years since he was released, and he still can't speak!

What does it mean that Grandpa Huang likes such unsightly scripts.

What words!What is it!

Zhu Qiyu said indifferently: "To tell you the truth, let's talk about it. It's vulgar, vulgar. Would you like to listen carefully to Mr. Li?"

Li Binyan listened carefully, and the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and the more he listened, the more he understood why.

The "Water Margin Continuation" mentioned by the storyteller only extracts and extends Wu Song, Wu Dalang, Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian. It was lively, but Li Binyan figured out the way.

"Crack!" The storyteller patted the gavel, making a summary of the above, then took a sip of tea, continued to shake his head and said: "I said last time that after Ximen Qing, a senior official of Ximen, was promoted, He ignored the ten sworn brothers back then, and this sworn brother Bai Laiguang came to the door to ask for advice, but the Ximen official avoided him, and then he really couldn't dodge it, and when he saw him, he even spoke sarcasticly."

"After the sworn brother Bai Laiguang left, the Ximen officials beat Ping'an's family severely, just because Ping'an let Bai Laiguang into the house, and made the high officials lose their morale."

"Back when the Ximen official was still a rascal, the ten sworn brothers were the right-hand man of the Ximen official. Seeing that the Ximen official has become prosperous, these ten brothers have become burdens. These ten burdens Here, there is such a person named Chang Zhijie."

"Speaking of this Chang Zhi Festival, people call it Chang Er. The wandering people on the street call Chang Er Lord when they see it. Although this is the second master, they live in poverty. They have no house at home, and they just rent it. Well, the landlord is begging for the rent, and the second master knelt down and called him master, it is really embarrassing."

"Second Master Chang saw that the money was not enough, so he went to the high official of Ximen for alms. Fortunately, the high official of Ximen didn't escape, so he had to lend 12 taels of silver to Second Master Chang."

"Snapped!"

"It's said that Chang Er borrowed money to go home. As soon as he entered the door, the wretch came out cursing and yelling, cursing as he walked: This sycamore leaf - a naked prostitute, went out for a day, and starved his wife in bed At home, full of food and drink, full of wine and happy to return home, hey, I’m really not ashamed.”

"Chang Er hasn't spoken yet, but this guy continues to scold: the house is unlivable, the owner is begging for rent, and he is disgusted by others, so he only teaches the mother-in-law to listen to her."

"Chang Er just didn't open his mouth, let his wife finish the scolding, shook his sleeve lightly, exposed all the silver, put them on the table, lined up in a row, and said proudly: Brother Kong Fang, Brother Kong Fang, I Look at you, you are shining, and you are resounding, it is really a priceless treasure! I only regret that I have no saliva to swallow you down, if you were earlier, how could I be mad at this slut?"

The storyteller just took a sip of water, looked at the cheerful faces of the audience, and continued: "The woman, her eyes were clearly looking at the row of 12 taels of silver ingots, and she rushed forward happily, looking at the silver ingots. , all you have in your eyes is the money, so why worry about Chang Er's face?"

"Chang Er raised his eyebrows, twisted the corners of his mouth, and said: You will scold me for the rest of your life, and get close to me when you see the silver. Tomorrow, I will take this silver to buy clothes, and go to other places to be happy. Don't fool around with you again!"

"When the woman heard what Chang Er said, she immediately put the silver in her arms. After all, there was a marriage certificate, and the wife who was being married by the matchmaker. The woman held the silver and said with a smile: My brother, my master, what happened?" By the way, where did these silver ingots come from?"

"Chang Er is still sulking. How easy is it to borrow money from the senior officials of Ximen? The wine has penetrated the intestines, stomach and heart, and the whole body smells of alcohol. There is no grain of rice in this stomach, and there is no vegetable in it. There is only a stomach full of wine. As soon as I got home, I was angry with this woman again, so I was naturally depressed."

"The woman was holding the money, and suddenly she burst into tears. The tears were falling, but the words did not fall: My brother, my lord, can you blame me? I have become a family with you, and we have nothing to do. Living room, no fixed business, now I have money, I can discuss with you, first buy a house to settle down, then set up a rice noodle shop, settle down and start a business, why bother on the street? I have been your wife for six or seven years, have you ever let you Became a tortoise with a hat on? You never lost a flower, so it's useless for you to blame me!"

What the storyteller said was missing the flower, and everyone present knew exactly what the flower was.

After a short pause, the storyteller spoke again: "Chang Er was still angry in his heart, and he didn't open his mouth, and he didn't pick it up. The woman scattered the silver, sat on the ground, threw it, and cursed sharply: You Ruthless man, it’s hard for a woman to do it too! After hard work, if you complain about others, blame me for talking too much. You have money today and ignore me. No matter who says it, you will say you are ruthless! Even if the officials know it, they must judge you !"

"Chang Er sighed after all, sat on the bench, watched the sloppy woman lose her temper, and said: "Women, don't plow or weave, just with this square inch of land, you can make all the men in the world angry!"

"As soon as the woman heard this, her complexion changed. She stood up, ran towards the pillar of the house, and was about to rush over. Chang Er was shocked when she saw this, and rushed out suddenly. The woman bumped into Chang Er's arms. Two troubles and three hangings, sincerity does not deceive others, this is often a rascal, and there is no way to deal with them, but it is good to give some reassurance, which can be regarded as calming the wife."

"Chang Er's right sleeve flicked, and it was three taels of mutton with blood. Although he was dazzled by the wine, he still bought the meat. Chang pointed to the door with his second hand, and a bag of rice was leaning against the threshold. When Chang Er came out of the high official's mansion, he went to the market to buy food home, and he had nothing in his pockets, if he had money, he would still think of his wife."

"The mother-in-law looked at the rice and looked at the meat, and finally laughed out of tears. She patted Chang Er and said, "Why buy this piece of mutton again? What a waste."

"Chang Er said with a smile: Just now you said that you have worked so hard and don't fight for this mutton. Wouldn't you want to cut me up and eat it?"

"The mother-in-law saw the rice, saw the meat, and then looked at the silver scattered on the ground, still aggrieved: Chang Er, you cruel thief! Today I hold a grudge, let's see what you did to me!"

"Chang Eryi listened, hey, what can I do? I picked up the woman and went into the room... The woman spent a day happily, and all her complaints were thrown into the ocean."

"It's the poor and lowly couple who have all the troubles, and Chang Zhijie wins the money and proud of his wife and children."

The storyteller is still talking, but Zhu Qiyu, Yu Qian, and Li Binyan are not focused on the storyteller's storybook.

"A story about Chai Mi and his wife." Yu Qian said with emotion.

The jokes and cursing are not about big people, but about small people, and they are low-level people who have nothing to eat in society. They are not about earth-shattering and surprising events, but about ordinary couples.

But the peaceful brushwork has written all the smoke and fire in the world, a story about the chaimi couple.

"What happened to Chang Er?" Li Binyan asked curiously after taking a sip of tea after listening.

Zhu Qiyu finished reading "Water Margin", he said with a smile: "Chang Er later borrowed 35 taels of silver from the senior official of Ximen to open a rice noodle shop. Although the husband and wife worked hard, they paid it back within a year Senior official 11 taels, return it in the next year, when this Ximen senior official loves Pan Jinlian, if he mixes the medicine of tiger and wolf with wine, he can't die anymore."

The medicine of tiger and wolf is paired with wine, which is not the way to eat it.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Binyan and asked: "What does Mr. Li think we brought Mr. Li to listen to?"

"World affairs." Li Binyan bowed his head and said: "The emperor told me that this is the world situation. After all, there is no house without a foundation. Since the New Deal, we scholars in Ming Dynasty are willing to look at the common people after all. The parents of the people are short-sighted, so speak a word or two for them."

"Of course! There's more." Zhu Qiyu nodded uncontrollably, this was a change in the atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Binyan continued: "The officials of Ximen are bureaucrats, bullies, and rich merchants. They are bourgeois with three identities, but they have been responsible for the punishment of thousands of households in Yanggu County. This strange article, ranging from the imperial court's tyrant and dictatorship to the local bureaucrats and tyrants, and even the ghosts and monsters composed of street ruffians, hooligans, and gangsters, is really dark."

"Yes, yes! There's more." Zhu Qiyu nodded again, this official Li lived up to Zhu Qiyu's grace.

Li Binyan thought for a while and said: "The word money can satisfy one's hunger and life, while the evil energy can make one's life intoxicated."

"Since the reform of financial affairs in the Ming Dynasty, the profit-seeking style of the Ming Dynasty has become rampant. Often the second wife is arrogant and courteous, cursing and cursing when she has no money, but when she has money, she is troubled. This is the word "Qian". The most important thing is that Qian Sejiuyi, I have worked in Songjiang Mansion for thirteen years, so I understand what is being said between the lines."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhu Qiyu said three yes in a row. He was very satisfied with Li Binyan's answer. Daming was in an era of great changes. In fact, a new ritual and music is quietly changing Daming.

The specific environment determines the norms of morality. Ethics and morality are clay. What will it look like in an era of great change?Where does Ming Dynasty's rites and music go? Isn't it a huge challenge?
And Li Binyan saw clearly, so he didn't waste his trip.

What is missing in business?What is lacking is Li Binyan's insight into the Ming Dynasty's issues after serving in the local office for many years. Now that Shang Lu is working in the Northeast, this shortcoming is also made up for.

Li Binyan is also lacking, he is still the same Li Binyan from before, not very good at speaking, in Songjiang Mansion he is the master Qingtian Dao of Songjiang Mansion, even the governor of Jiangsu has to look at his face to do things.

Insight into the world is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is the article, both of which are indispensable.

Yu Qian was always happy by the side. After all these years, he only recommended Li Binyan, and he did not disappoint.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Li has a lot of romantic debts. We heard that there is a girl in Jiaozhi looking for you to find a husband. It is rumored that you have an affair with the Queen of Ceylon?" Zhu Qiyu asked about another matter, somewhat puzzled.

The King of Ceylon was sent to Daming by force and stayed in Songjiang Mansion for a period of time. Li Binyan's three plays about the Queen of Ceylon all reached Zhu Qiyu's ears.

When Li Binyan heard the emperor's news, his face flushed and he stood up abruptly, but he couldn't lose his demeanor in front of the emperor. Queen Lan is having an affair!"

"I didn't do anything. Commander Tang brought a chair with the words Songjiang Governor Li Binyan going south to the West. The Queen of Ceylon was captured. He was tied to that chair, and this rumor started."

"The reason for this is that the Queen of Ceylon, Xu Shimin, originally had a marriage contract with the Grand Duke Sri Jaya, but she became pregnant when she was unmarried. Deputy Governor Sri Jaya."

"The queen of Ceylon relies on that chair! Everyone tells everyone that she is pregnant with my child! My mother-in-law even made me angry!"

"Heaven and earth conscience!"

"Hahaha!" Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian glanced at each other and laughed out loud. Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian are monarchs and ministers, and under normal circumstances, they would not laugh so loud unless they couldn't help it.

Because of his kneeling and submissive attitude, Sri Jaya has been given the surname Xu and has become the vice-governor of Ceylon, and the governor of Ceylon is Chen Shouyan.

From Yu Qian's point of view, His Majesty is actually very talkative. If one discussion fails, we will discuss it twice. Of course, there will be no third time. Chen Shouyan agreed to surrender and moved to Ceylon and Chen Lunpo just to catch up with the tail of the second discussion. , this status is still very high, the only governor of the western world is Chen Shouyan.

A small yellow door came in and whispered to Xing'an, and handed over a pond newspaper. Zhu Qiyu opened it and handed it to Yu Qian. , Such a rare thing, this is the first time I have seen it!
"Hahaha!" Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian laughed again, and Li Binyan who was laughing was confused. It wasn't until Xing'an handed the pond newspaper to Li Binyan that Li Binyan saw the content of the pond newspaper.

Li Binyan, the governor of Liberty City, married the cousin of the Portuguese king, Miss Philippa, with three matchmakers and six hires!
Li Binyan's eyes darkened, and he quickly grabbed the armrest. He is an upright gentleman, why did he have an affair with this one, and that one? This person is in Daming, and a chair made the Queen of Ceylon pregnant. Why are you still married now? Got a cousin of the Portuguese king, and became brother-in-law with the Portuguese king? !
What is this!
"Mr. Li, are you out of breath?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Binyan's shaky appearance and asked in surprise.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm used to it, I'm used to it." Li Binyan understood that Tang Xing would never give up until he made him notorious.

……

I, Li Binyan, have been upright all my life. I have never been the head of the Muromachi Shogunate, nor have I been in love with the daughter of the Zheng family, nor have I had any relationship with the King and Queen of Ceylon, nor have I been a brother-in-law with the King of Portugal, nor have I been greedy for ink. Huge tens of thousands, buried countless treasures. —— "Li Binyan's Autobiography".

A sword comes to the west to open the gate of heaven, flat waves cut through the waves to punish evil spirits, wives and concubines gather in groups of thousands of nations, and gold, silver and treasures are left in the world. ——Two poems written by Li Binyan, governor of Songjiang, Ming and Tang Xing.Note: The sword is the Yongle Sword bestowed by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.Ask for a monthly ticket, woo! ! ! ! !
