Chapter 1128: Murder and Heart
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and glanced at Fang Jifan.
This guy......
But he only smacked his lips and said with a straight face: "There are some things that can be seen through, but not said; You can understand, don't speak, keep your mouth shut. ”
"Ah......" Fang Jifan looked aggrieved and honest...... Is there something wrong with it?
Soon, the food was served, although the Tatars also used iron pots to fry vegetables, but I have to say that they are still very distinctive, stir-frying is a delicate job, but on the contrary, they are still rough.
This meat is cut a little big, not only is it a waste of ingredients, but it also does not taste good, and there is more salt to eat......
Emperor Hongzhi ate with a smile on his face, although the taste was the same as chewing wax, he was very conscious of being a guest.
Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to keep smiling.
This made Zhu Dachang laugh heartily: "If it's delicious, eat more." ”
"Oh." Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "If it's not delicious, can you not eat it?" ”
Zhu Dachang thought he was joking: "The rules of our Tatars, if the guests come, they don't drink enough wine and don't eat enough meat, the host is not considerate and will definitely not let the guests out of this tent." ”
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly lowered his head, said that it was delicious, and continued to hold the huge meat and bite it down.
Fang Jifan was holding the meat and constantly stuffing it into Wang Shouren's bowl: "Bo'an, when you are growing your body, you need more meat." Among the disciples, you are not young, but you are too short, and you are thin, and the teacher feels very sorry for you, come, eat. ”
Wang Shouren was silent, but did not say anything, and ate the meat.
After eating, everyone sat down, and Emperor Hongzhi stood up: "Your cattle and sheep, the old man has bought them all, and ...... in the future Live a good life, you are right, all Tatars, all Han people, all have to eat grains, nothing more than ...... You just want to live a good life, you will live a good life, as long as you are willing to work hard and raise more cattle and sheep. ”
Zhu Dachang scratched his head, he felt that this old man was sour-talking, you came to buy cattle and sheep, I sold cattle and sheep, why did you talk so around?
He smiled dryly, "Yes." ”
Emperor Hongzhi immediately pointed to the two gods in the shrine: "Have you seen these two gods?" ”
Zhu Dachang shook his head: "I have never seen it, such a god is not something that mortals can easily see." ”
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "Yes, the gods are not easy to see, the old man heard that in other places, the gods descend from the sky to bless mortals, or take mortals out of the sea of suffering." But...... In the Ming Dynasty, or in your place, the gods are not like this, here, the gods were only physical mortals at the beginning, but they have achieved great deeds, and only then are they remembered and believed, and in the end, people carry such people into the temple, or become literary saints, or become martial saints, or, become gods. According to the old man, the gods of the former are ethereal, but they are just boasting and controlling people's hearts. And the gods of the latter are the ...... that people want."
Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but interject: "It's just too ugly, he can be handsome." ”
Zhu Dachang listened, but he looked displeased: "The gods are like this, why should they be handsome, what is the use of being handsome, you Han people know these useless things." ”
Seeing that Zhu Dachang was annoyed, Zhu Houzhao shrugged his shoulders and was speechless.
Emperor Hongzhi was about to leave.
But at this moment, there were suddenly hurried footsteps outside.
But a Tatar opened the curtain and came in, and said a few words to Zhu Dachang.
After hearing this, Zhu Dachang became excited, and responded in Tatar dialect, and then went to the edge of the tent to take down a pair of bows and arrows.
His sudden movement made Wang Shouren vigilant.
But then, Zhu Dachang turned around and glanced at Emperor Hongzhi: "I have something important, I have to leave first, I can't be hospitable and die." So saying, he walked with the Tatar.
Emperor Hongzhi frowned, and couldn't help but say: "What are they going to do, come, go and ask for understanding." ”
Zhu Houzhao said on the side: "Don't ask, father, the sons and daughters understand Tatar language, what they said is that there is a group of Jurchen thieves from Liaodong who have come to plunder the goods of merchants again, and they are going to hunt them down." ”
"Jurchen ......" Emperor Hongzhi remembered something.
A few days ago, it was true that the factory guards had reported that with the annexation of a large number of Tatars, they began to trade with the Ming Dynasty in the area of the nine borders, coupled with the connection of trade routes and the Tatar Department put down their swords, and chose to simply graze and dig mines, which led to a group of Jurchens in Liaodong who coveted it.
As a result, many Haixi Jurchens, Haidong Jurchens, and Jianzhou Jurchens migrated here one after another to make a living by plundering caravans.
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Let's go, go out and have a look." ”
When they left the big tent, they heard the sound of bull horns, and many Tatars and some Han Chinese who had lived here for a long time were filled with righteous indignation.
Obviously, many people hated these Jurchens so much that they looked for their horses, with bows and arrows, and the quiver around their waists was full of arrows, and then the clattering Pegasus kicked up dust, and dozens of people rushed towards the depths of the desert in a team.
In the entire settlement, people and horses neighed, and some Han officials beat on the bangzi and shouted: "The Wuji caravan, just attacked, is forty miles to the north, killing two people, the government ordered a reward for wanting, take these thieves, the government has a reward." ”
In the gathering place, in a moment, the dust was flying, Emperor Hongzhi saw Zhu Dachang, he had turned over on the horse, his son, happy like the New Year, hugged a pot of bows and arrows to him, Zhu Dachang rode on the horse, leaned over and touched his son's head, and said a few words, as if to let him get out, the child jumped back to the tent again, and ran into his mother's arms, and Zhu Dachang had let go of the reins and galloped away.
Emperor Hongji's face was covered with dust and he coughed.
Zhu Houzhao also wanted to follow, but when he looked at his father, he looked trembling and stood aside obediently.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "It was the Wuji Trading House that was plundered, why are these Tatars also indignant?" ”
Fang Jifan thought for a while: "People have been getting along for a long time, they have empathy, Wu Ji Trading House must often come here to trade, for the Tatar people, the trading house buys a large number of their goods, it is their benefactor, besides, isn't the government still rewarding?" ”
Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "In my opinion, these Tatars have become of the same heart as my Ming Dynasty. ”
Liu Jian said: "Your Majesty, it's not too early, isn't it time to go back to Datong." ”
"Wait a minute." Emperor Hongzhi looked worried: "I want to wait for this Zhu Dachang to come back, he may encounter danger if he goes like this, after all, I have eaten his food and received his hospitality." ”
Say, wait here.
Zhu Dachang's mother-in-law saw that Emperor Hongzhi and the others did not leave, so she invited them to sit in the tent.
After waiting for more than three hours, the sky was already full of sunshine, the sun was dim, and in the distance, there was the sound of horses' hooves, which came from far and near, but I saw a hundred or so men on horseback, flying horses and returning.
They all looked tired, and seven or eight people with pigtails on their backs were tied to their horses like rice dumplings.
Zhu Dachang was also in the crowd.
Many people gathered around and cheered.
There was a Han man who got off the horse, his face full of red light: "What a luck, these damn horse thieves are reluctant to carry the goods, and we have caught up, damn ......"
As he spoke, he dragged one of the pigtailed men off the horse.
Zhu Dachang also seemed very happy, he took out the dagger, and said in a cruel voice: "I hate thieves the most, we Tatars are like Han people, we have washed our hands in the golden basin, but you still come to loot, and you have encountered our thieves and ancestors, you are unlucky." ”
The thief, with a blue nose and swollen face, speaking words that no one could understand, was dragged to the clearing, and he seemed to be cursing something.
The onlookers gritted their teeth, and Emperor Hongzhi and others looked at the appearance of the horse thief.
Zhu Dachang stepped on him with one foot, pulled up his braids, so that he had to lean his neck, saying that it was too late and that was fast, the dagger in Zhu Dachang's hand had already swept a silver light under the sunset, and the blade of the dagger slashed under the neck of this Jurchen horse thief.
Emperor Hongzhi's face turned blue, he didn't expect that the violence came so quickly.
The horse thief's body straightened, as if twitching, and then on his neck, a blood line suddenly appeared, in this blood line, blood gradually oozed out, but in the next moment, the gushing blood suddenly tore through the knife edge, like an unkempt head, sprayed out, the horse thief was still pulled by the braid and tilted his head, and his mouth let out a uh-uh-uh-ahh......h In an instant, there was no more breathing.
Zhu Dachang threw him to the ground, and his flesh trembled.
Seeing this, the other Jurchen horse thieves began to wail as if begging for mercy while being dragged out.
At this time, someone came out of the crowd, but it was someone from the government who came, shouting: "Leave a few alive, and you have to ask the whereabouts of the other comrades, who caught them, ah, there is a dead one here, it was said in advance, and if you die, the bounty will be halved...... Come on, pack up ......."
Seem...... The people here are accustomed to this, and those horse thieves were directly escorted away by the officials.
Zhu Dachang returned to the tent, wiped the blood with a rag, grinned, and showed his blackened teeth: "The distinguished guest has not left yet, it is really good, there is a lot of slackness, come, we drink, today I am lucky, I took a horse thief with my own hands, these horse thieves, recently rampant very much, do not give them a little color to see, who will dare to go out of the customs to buy and sell in the future, this is to cut off the life of our Tatars, in the future, I have to repay the mortgage, not a penny less silver per month, hum, don't kill them, I drink the northwest wind?" I don't want to go back to the days when I was hungry and hungry. ”
