?Although it was around two quarters of noon, in response to the low wind in February, and with a group of soldiers surrounding the execution ground with solemn expressions, no one could help but shrink their necks. -< Shuhai Pavilion >- . Two death row inmates were already kneeling in the middle of the field. Their faces were gray, their mouths were stuffed with numbness kernels, and their bodies were trembling. The prisoner's sign had been handed over to the prison officer's office, and the death row inmate's hair was in braids. He was carried by the executioner who was on red errand, and he only waited for the order from the prison officer. The supervisor sitting on the stage was Xu Yuanmeng, who was the censor of Zuodu at that time. About time, Xu Yuanmeng looked at the sun, turned his eyes to the two death row prisoners, and then looked at the kneeling person on the left side of the stage. The man took a look and saw that the man was restrained by nine iron chains. His body was hunched over and his eyes were already blurry. Although he was alive, he looked lifeless. Xu Yuanmeng couldn't help but show some pity on his face, and sighed softly, and said: "Juduna, I have saved you from death. It is already a great favor from the emperor. Now, eh" After a pause, he picked up the pen in front of him. , stained with cinnabar, hooked on the Guiyou sign, and threw it down. Seeing the sign fall to the ground, the executioner pulled the condemned prisoner's braid forward, then raised the knife and dropped the head. The head was separated, and blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing everywhere. At this time, the executioner raised the heads of the two prisoners in public. The man kneeling under the stage seemed to wake up and let out a heart-rending cry: "My son!"
Most of the people watching around were officials in Beijing. They had never seen such a shocking scene before. Now that the execution was over, they dispersed like birds and beasts as if they had been granted amnesty. Emida, the clerk of the Ministry of Revenue, was standing relatively close to the execution platform. When the north wind blew, a smell of blood hit his nostrils. He frowned and almost vomited out the food he had eaten in the morning. He hurriedly He leaned down and covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves. At this moment, he felt someone tap him on his shoulder, and then a hand wearing an emerald ring handed him a bottle of snuff. Emida was grateful and hurriedly took some snuff and smelled it. He suppressed the feeling of disgust that kept churning in his stomach. When he looked up, he saw that he was an acquaintance, Brother Ten. He looked a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "I must have missed the almanac when I went out today. The cowardly look on my face now made Master Shi laugh." Brother Ten put away the snuff bottle. He took it into his arms and said with a smile: "We have known each other for a long time, but now we are saying these things. Let's go, brother, I will be the host. Go to Wangji Liquor Shop in the front door, where the Buddha's Hand Dew with Horse Lotus Meat is in season. It's the most beautiful thing to use." After saying this, she took him in her arms and moved forward. The tenth brother and Omida are old acquaintances. Now he is under the sect of the emperor's fifteenth son. He is responsible for the post of Shangsiyuan and concurrently has a lucrative job as a copper buyer. Naturally, there are many people who fawn over him. . Emida was a disciple of Yinlu, the sixteenth son of the emperor. Because of his hard work, Yinlu came forward to find this job in the household department for him. Although the two of them had nothing to do with each other in official matters, after resigning from their posts, they had to return to their master's office every now and then to work as errands. Since the two princes were from the same mother, they naturally became very close to each other.
The two of them found a quiet place in the corner of the second floor of Wangji Liquor Shop, and ordered Shaomai with diced pork in sauce, horse lotus pork, rose dates, fried triangles, and two horns of bergamot dew. The tenth brother filled the wine cup for Omida and poured another cup for himself. Then he smiled and said: "Let's go one by one. Let me calm down your shock first." Omida took it, drank a full cup and said: " I'm not trying to make up for myself. We are banner people. Which of our ancestors has not passed through the pile of dead people before the battle? When did we fear this little bit of blood? I am, well, think about the Judune sect. It's a bit miserable, I can't bear it." Brother Ten looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to the two of them, but he still lowered his voice and said: "This matter of setting up the crown prince can only be interfered with by a dismissed minister. ? Now that my son and son-in-law have lost their heads, he has also ended up like this. According to me, he is doing it himself!" "Huh?" This was the first time Omida heard about the secrets of these sons, and he immediately felt a shiver in his heart. "Listen to my brother. , there is something more to this matter?" "Who says it's not so?" Brother Ten picked a piece of horse lotus meat from the plate, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, his words became more mysterious and said, "Brother, you Think about it, even though Judune had a connection with 'that person' in the past, just because of his past experience with 'that person' when he was the Minister of War, he was determined to protect 'that person'. If it were me, You definitely don't believe it." Emida tasted the taste of Tenth Brother's words. After a moment, Fang nodded and said, "That makes sense. Zhu Tianbao's letter of protection, after thinking about it carefully, Then he knew it was not his head and tail, not to mention how sage and wise his master was? He had only just come out as an errand, and he had heard so much about the merits of the second master. As expected, his Ama was bitten out under the three trees. Thinking about Zhuduna, Did you also come up with this idea after seeing Wang Dong, Chen Jiayou and the others suggesting that they should establish a prince?" Brother Ten smiled faintly and said: "Wang and Chen are both the previous masters. This is the relationship between master and disciple. Even if they had this intention, they didn't dare to reveal who the guarantor was. Why, they could see clearly that this was the master's family matter, and it was not up to outsiders to make irresponsible remarks. Besides, this man of the dynasty Civil and military, how many of them are still optimistic about that man? Others protect 'that man', what is the purpose? He will be rich and powerful in the future." "Yes, Zhudu Nayue wants to give it a go. If it's luck, By the way, it¡¯s hard to say that he wasA great scholar is born to seek wealth and wealth in danger "Well" A look of ridicule appeared on Brother Ten's face, "It's a pity that he was just regarded as a leader" "Hiss" Omida took a breath of cold air, "You mean, Zhu Du Was Ne encouraged by others to let his son Zhu Tianbao come forward? The tenth brother drank another drink and said leisurely: "The two sons-in-law of Zhuduna, Dai Bao and Chang Lai, have an unusual relationship with Qishi (then the commander-in-chief of Zhenghong Banner, Yinzhen's father-in-law)." With this kind of relationship, how can this be easy? "This why did Jiuye's people instigate Zhudu Nebao to kill the deposed prince?" Could it be" Emida seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly closed her mouth mid-sentence. "Hey, you have thought of it too, haven't you? It was nothing more than looking at Judune who was full of thoughts of climbing up, and through him he made that person unable to stand up forever. Nowadays, what is the master's most taboo, one is the eighth master, and the other is that person. In this case, I am afraid that the master will doubt that the guarantee was entrusted to him, and that person will no longer be able to get ahead. "Omida nodded in agreement and said: "Brother, I can see clearly. Nowadays, the movements of these men are getting louder and louder. Fortunately, our own master has not been involved in these things. Otherwise, I'm afraid that our brothers' lives will be miserable. It¡¯s also gone too far. Not to mention, isn't Meng Guangzu, the disciple of Third Master, just an example right before our eyes? "When the tenth brother heard Meng's name, he couldn't help but laughed and said: "This is a stick. Fortunately, the third master reused him, but he openly used the banner of the third master to ask the governors for money. He didn't do it to the third master. Take it into the pit? He was so tired that the governor also ate Gua Luo'er. Those local officials are smarter than monkeys. With this matter, who else is willing to stand up and support the third master? This kind of slave who brings trouble to his master should be killed! Emida also smiled and said: "But the third master is a member of the Holy Family. Looking at the meaning of the newspaper, even the emperor is thinking of picking the third master out." However, this third master has indeed read enough books. Although it is said that "there is a golden house in the book," I am afraid that the third master will not be able to find it in the book. "As soon as these words came out, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, then they had a good time while changing glasses.
