"Guilty of Guilty Petition" is from "Historical Records: Lian Po Lin Xiangru Biography", and "Guilty of Negative Petition" is from the notebook "The Legend of Wei Erdu".

"The Legend of Wei Erdu" is the note of Wei Liangchen, the founder of the Ming Dynasty Donglin Party, who attacked the Liangfu of the current dynasty, the imperial court, and the founder of the prosperous era of East Asia.

The book has a total of 30 volumes, and there are 4 volumes of addenda, written by Wang Dade, a person from Jintan in Zhenjiang.

Dade word nonsense, Wanli 38 years of people, family lineage, with his father in the Beijing residence. He had many contacts with the scholars and the old people of the deceased family at that time, and the relatives of the Zhongguan Honorable Officers. Recently, I searched the expo, and I heard a lot of information, especially in current affairs and allusions to the dynasty. After returning to his hometown, he will see and hear what he has seen and heard about Wei Gelding's uncle and nephew, imitating the style of Ouyang Xiu's "Returning to the Field", and record it in essays, and take the nickname of Wei Gelding in the market as the title of the book.

The book was completely written in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, and three more articles were collected at the age of 9,000 to supplement it.

In the book, there are many slanders and smears against the nine-thousand-year-old uncle and nephew, which are extremely distorted, accusing Wei Gelding of being domineering, insidious and cunning, arrogant and unbridled. made something out of nothing, fabricated many things out of thin air, and listed Wei Gelding's uncle and nephew as the first eunuch in the history of the country.

The most exaggerated part of the book refers to Wei Gelding's ministers openly looking for an aphrodisiac recipe in the south of the Yangtze River, wanting to regenerate the rootless bird with new meat, and then he didn't know which country's secret recipe he had, and he really gave birth to a few inches of giant birds overnight, which scared Wei Gelding to death on the spot A few people were waiting for the maids. Subsequently, Wei Gelding was reborn with a penis, and plundered good women for their lewd pleasures and sang every night.

Throughout the book, the slander of Wei Eunuch Liangchen is exaggerated, and the whole book is full of obscene words, and the great rebellion is that the book claims that Wei Eunuch Liangchen fornicated in the harem, and the new monarch of the Ming Dynasty was not the blood of the Zhu family, but the son of the Wei family. It is even faintly pointed out that in the harem of the three dynasties of Wanli, Taichang and Tianqi, there are things about Wei Eunuch Liangchen molesting palace concubines, except for concubines and unmarried princesses, the married golden branches and jade leaves have suffered from their claws, which can be described as a great crime, and it is not an exaggeration to cut it with a thousand knives.

As soon as this book came out, the world was in an uproar immediately, and the benevolent and upright people knew that this was a deliberate attack and slander of Wei Gong by the Donglin traitor party, which can be called the reappearance of the demon book after Wanli.

Wei Gong's uncle and nephew worked hard for the imperial court, how could they tolerate the slander of the small book, so he ordered the factory guard to investigate thoroughly, and then detained Wang Dade for 11 years in the case of Donglin Party members in the fifth year of the Apocalypse.

Six years later, Wei Gong claimed that the dynasty did not punish crimes by words, did not convict people with indiscriminate writing, and Dade was inherently guilty, but the crime would not last for ten years, so he ordered Yousi to release Wang Dade and return to his hometown in advance, and ordered the local government to strictly govern it, and not to make trouble again.

Duke Wei's move was unanimously appreciated by the imperial court, and everyone knew that Zai Fu was not as open-minded as Duke Wei.

The book "The Legend of Wei Erdu" was too absurd and had a bad impact on the Duke of Wei and the royal family, and was listed as the first of the top ten banned books in the Ming Dynasty by the imperial court.

However, there are many vulgar villains in the world, and the book is extremely detailed in the description of men and women, so that unscrupulous literati secretly copy and peek at it regardless of the laws and regulations of the imperial court, and it is forbidden to forbid it, and finally circulates it in the world.

However, to scholars of official history, the book is a complete joke.

It is said that Duke Wei talked about this book with someone one day, and said that it was a pity that the person did not go to mix pomegranate grass.

None of the people who heard it knew Wei Gongyi, and this matter became a mystery for the ages.

According to Wang Dade's description in the book "The Legend of Wei Erdu", on that day, he accompanied his father and the wealthy gentry in Zhenjiang City to Wei Gelding outside the city, and witnessed Wei Gelding drive out the first two gentry who carried thorns, and then there were tigers and wolves who escorted the two to the city.

The tiger wolf said, "You can't spend a lot of money, it's better to spend it on my brother", or "It's useless to put a lot of money in the family, it's better to keep it in Wei's father-in-law's office, and withdraw it when necessary." ”

Ridiculous!

Wild!

Everyone in the gentry and wealthy families was indignant, wouldn't Wei Gelding's move be a blatant appropriation of other people's wealth!

Wei Gelding turned a blind eye, and only welcomed a Zhiqu offering gold into the line, and later sent him out of the city. The onlookers saw it clearly, and the person who came out took a wooden sign in his hand, with the words "House of Goodness" written on it. Then a tiger and wolf stepped forward, but it was not an escort, but a guard, and he was kind and angry, like the god of wealth.

said, "With this card, not only do the evil not dare to intrude, but even the ghosts and gods dare not peep." Or "The lord has been a friend of the imperial army since then, if he is bullied, he should report the imperial army as soon as possible, and the imperial army will send personnel to eliminate the disaster for the lord." ”

At this point, there is nothing that is not understood, and there is nothing that is not transparent.

The guilt of asking for money is really the guilt of asking for money!

If there is no gold, you are guilty. If there is gold, there is no sin.

The government can't avoid it, Zhenjiang has no city wall to rely on, and the gentry and rich families have thousands of wealth, and in the eyes of Wei Biao, they are just children holding gold.

So, in order to protect themselves, the rest of the people saw this, and no longer dared to hesitate, lest a tiger and wolf come to the door to "keep" the family property, so they paid a huge amount of money, saying that they had come to Wei Gong to ask for money.

There was a report that he would give a thousand taels of silver, and before the words fell, there was a report that he would give five thousand taels, but before everyone reacted, the two of them had already shouted.

The chaos of the scene is absurd, just like auctioning something, and the one with the highest price wins.

Wei Biao stood with his hands in the field, his face expressionless, just waiting to hear which one had made a new high, he looked at that one, and did not speak, only nodded slightly, his eyes were full of encouragement.

As the atmosphere was lively, the gentry and wealthy families enthusiastically asked for guilt, and the donation of silver hit new highs repeatedly, and Wei Gong's face was relaxed.

When he heard that a certain family was not only willing to offer 16,000 taels of silver to ask for sin, but also wanted to establish a long-term trade cooperative relationship with his father-in-law's maritime special zone, Wei Gong was also excited, and immediately wrote "Master Jia is a good person".

With the Jia family giving the book, the atmosphere of the scene reached a climax in an instant.

The number of negative gold is also increasing, and the highest price is the Hu family who has offended the Duke of Wei.

In addition, the family said that it was willing to donate 30,000 taels of silver for the expenses of his father-in-law and his soldiers and horses, and that he was willing to set up a commercial bank in the Special Administrative Region and take the lead in organizing the establishment of the Zhenjiang branch of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, so as to respond to and support the great cause of public and maritime affairs.

Wei Gong felt that the Hu family repented and reined in the precipice, so he gave the book "Master Hu is not bad", and then he actually held Hu Shihai's hand in front of everyone to encourage a few words, and whispered a few times in his ear. After that, he returned to the field and raised his voice to the public: "Originally, we always thought that the rich people in this Zhenjiang City were rich and unkind, and they did not want to share their worries for Your Majesty, for our family, and did not want to contribute to the court...... Zhenjiang is good, and the people in Zhenjiang are better! ”

"Hello Grandpa Wei!"

The organic spirits in the crowd wasted no time in raising their arms and exhaling.

Grandpa Wei smiled after hearing this, signaled everyone not to speak, and continued: "Nonsense and polite words, let's not say more. Although we are ministers, but we are also scholars, we know the grace of dripping water, when the spring reciprocates, so we can't guarantee anything else, but anyone who actively donates to His Majesty's maritime cause today, and so on maritime success, our family will return one by one! ”

According to later statistics, Gonggong Wei calculated that the wealthy gentry of Zhenjiang City donated 340,000 taels of silver, which was 240,000 taels more than the 10,000 taels of gold in Zhenjiang Mansion.

This made Wei Gonggong sigh with emotion, Jiangnan is rich, and he will not deceive us.

After ordering all the good people to return to the city and withdraw the gold by the way, the father-in-law came to the tent.

In the tent, Hu Shihai was a little nervous, because he didn't know why Gonggong Wei deliberately left him to summon him alone, and secretly said that he had paid 30,000 taels, and Wei Gelding still refused to spare him?

Thinking about it like this, I can't help but be even more nervous.

When my father-in-law saw it, he waved his hand and smiled: "Master Hu doesn't have to be nervous, our family came to you alone, but there is a wealth for you." ”

"Huh?"

Hu Shihai was puzzled, not knowing where this wealth came from.

The father-in-law was not in a hurry to say, and ordered the tea to be served left and right, and then picked up the tea bowl and blew a few breaths, took a slow sip, raised his eyes to look at Hu Shihai, and said lightly: "I don't know if Master Hu has ever heard of the treasure of Mongolian Temujin?" ”

When he said this, his father-in-law had a slight mystery on his face.
