Chapter 273: Knowing Good and Knowing Evil is Conscience
Although he also likes to have a good time, Xu Sansheng, the Qingzhou Yiyi, has no heart to see the killing. Most of the 500 soldiers of the Beijing Battalion lived in the military camp of Qingzhou Wei nearby, but how could he not have a guard, so he had to vacate his own house for these soldiers to live in. In addition, the expenditure of money, grain, firewood and charcoal has been rising all the way, and he has to use the tiger power of Qincha to grind his mouth to supply, and he has to calculate the income and expenditure accounts with the abacus beads loudly every day, which can be said to be so busy that his feet do not touch the ground.
In the evening, it was easy to settle the account, and he stretched out with relief. When he came out of the tent with the curtain raised, he saw at a glance two handymen standing in the corner of the courtyard with their backs to him whispering. Even though the handymen were old men, he instinctively crept a few steps closer.
"I used to only watch that little Zhang treat people kindly, but I didn't expect to be so ruthless! I also let you lie for me, and deliberately went into the city to watch the killing, but I almost went in vertically and came out horizontally. You don't know, it's just miserable. Ten times in a row, the executioner's ghost knife cut a gap, and then ...... Ahem, you ate my portion of the meal for me tonight, I can't eat at all! ”
"Is it that scary? It's just a head chopping, how can it compare to that Ling Chi a few years ago? Tsk, that's a knife that cut people to pieces, you still applauded loudly at the time, why are you so soft this time? ”
"Phew, it's useless to sneak away with me to see the lively old Pei Bi, I ran away after watching half of it, and when I came back, I vomited so much that I couldn't stand up while lying on the bed! I'm glad you didn't go, but if you did, you would be like me! ”
The two were muttering, but a loud shout suddenly sounded behind them: "Lao Tzu is so busy jumping up and down all day long, you dare to be lazy!" Damn, whoever went to see the murder today, Lao Tzu deducted his salary! ”
As soon as they heard this voice, the two handymen immediately turned around like a mouse seeing a cat, and begged for mercy, and the one who had sneaked out that afternoon was forced to tell him everything on the execution ground. At this moment, a shout suddenly sounded outside, saying that Lord Qincha had returned, so the three people in the courtyard no longer had any intention of gossiping, and immediately went to greet him.
After tossing for such an afternoon, as soon as Lu Feng came back, he rushed into his room and ordered no one to disturb him. Although Zhang Yue reluctantly talked to Xu Sansheng for a few words, his face also lost the indifference of the first sentence, and he turned slightly blue. Hearing that dinner had been delivered to the room, he nodded carelessly, and likewise ordered that he should not set foot in the courtyard at night without a message.
Lian Sheng Lian Hu brothers were left in the post station by Zhang Yue in the afternoon, at this time Lian Sheng opened the curtain to let Zhang Yue into the house, and couldn't help complaining: "Young master, you are back, it's rare to have such a bustle, you even refuse to take our brothers there, you have to leave us in this hellish post station!" Even the handymen here have a lot of sneaking out to watch the excitement, but let's ......."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhang Yue rushing straight to a copper basin shelf, reaching out and picking his throat vigorously, and vomited violently. He was still full of complaints, but he was stunned when he saw this.
Lian Hu on the side smelled the sour smell all over the room, and saw Zhang Yue's pale face, and immediately understood that something was wrong, so he hurriedly found a copper basin for Lian Sheng, and undoubtedly ordered: "Big brother, hurry up and get a basin of cold water!" Remember, don't tell anyone that there is anything wrong with the young master, get water and come in quickly! ”
drove Lian Sheng out, Lian Hu ignored the unpleasant smell, walked quickly behind Zhang Yue to help stroke his back, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over, half forced to pour it down. Seeing that Zhang Yue didn't seem to be able to vomit anything anymore, he put the person on the kang and sat on the east end, and put porcelain pillows and backrests.
At this time, Lian Sheng had already come in with a copper basin full of cold water, and when he didn't know where to put it, Lian Hu reminded him again: "Hurry up and take out the copper basin, bury the things in it with soil ash, be careful not to let people see it!" ”
Lian Sheng angrily put the copper basin in the corner, pinched his nose and stepped forward to take out the filth of the copper basin, and muttered angrily: "You kid will please and sell well, I do all the dirty work, I know how to support people!" ”
At this moment, Lian Hu didn't hear what the eldest brother was muttering, and hurriedly wrung a cold towel to wipe Zhang Yue's face. Seeing that Zhang Yue took a long breath and reacted, he was suddenly surprised and delighted, and hurriedly went to pour another cup of hot tea. This time, without him saying anything, Zhang Yue reached out and took it.
"Young Master, ...... you are"
"Do you know why I don't want to take you two brothers there this afternoon?"
Lian Hu has always been smarter than his elder brother, and he replied smartly with a roll of his eyes: "The little one only knows that the young master must have the young master's reason for doing things, and this must be for the good of our two brothers." ”
"If you go, you're either making a fool of yourself on the spot, or you're making a fool of yourself afterwards like me...... Tonight, Qingzhou doesn't know how many people will have nightmares......"
As soon as Zhang Yue closed his eyes at this time, there was the bloody slaughter in front of him, and the strong smell of blood simply lingered. For a whole afternoon, he didn't even know how many sweats were on his body, and he couldn't even tell whether it was sweat from the heat or sweat from being scared. Fortunately, the weather was too hot for everyone, and the soaked cyan gauze shirt on his body was inconspicuous at all. It's just that his stiff legs can support him all the way back to this room, and even he himself is surprised.
Sure enough, people are forced to a critical juncture, and the potential is endless.
At this time, Lian Sheng had already entered the room again with a cleanly washed copper basin, and seeing that Zhang Yue's face looked better, he hurriedly put down the basin and stepped forward, and asked in a low voice: "Young master, Xiao Xiao said the wrong thing just now." Are you feeling better now? Dinner is about already cold, do you want to send it to the kitchen to heat it up and eat it again? ”
"No, I don't have an appetite."
Waving his hand and answering such a sentence, Zhang Yue finally recovered a little spirit. If it weren't for the support of great concentration, he would have been eager to slip away halfway like Lu Feng when he was in prison, and it would be possible to fall headlong in the middle of the middle. At that time, there were hundreds of people's eyes watching, and there were many eyes watching, and he could only survive like this, even if he held on.
The people didn't know that it was the emperor who killed the people, and they wouldn't know that he was just the hand he was instructed to do, and no one would forget that he had more than 400 lives in his hands in the future. As soon as the original good reputation changed hands, it would turn into a murderous notoriety. Sure enough, it is worthy of the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di who took the country from his nephew with a knife and a gun, this method is really ruthless!
"Tell the kitchen not to send meat and fishy dishes over these days, and the diet should be light."
Lian Sheng and Lianhu knew that Zhang Yue was not the kind of layman who didn't eat meat, and when they heard such an order at this time, the two of them couldn't help but look at each other. Thinking of the reaction just now, they naturally realized that it was the sequelae of Zhang Yue's murder. If you want to make this young master, who is by no means bold, like this, what kind of tragic scene will it be on the execution ground?
After bathing and changing clothes, he told Lian Sheng Lianhu to go to sleep by himself, Zhang Yue stood up and went straight to the back room. Naturally, there is no study room or the like in this Qingzhou Station, and all the furnishings are just for passing officials to sleep, so in addition to the bed against the wall, there is only a simple style desk in the room, and the four treasures of the study are just practical. At this time, he couldn't eat, and he also couldn't sleep, he sat down at the desk, first studied the thick ink of the inkstone, and then took a piece of paper casually.
"There is no good and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is a character."
After writing such a sentence, he felt that the anger he had held in his stomach dissipated a little, and suddenly recalled many famous sayings and aphorisms of Mr. Yang Ming that he had memorized backwards, and he had to draw a gourd and write it out in the same way.
"There is no greater harm than the merit of talking about the sky, there is no greater sin than the good of covering up people, no evil is deeper than the ability to attack, and no humiliation is more important than forgetting one's own shame, and the four are prepared for disaster."
"It's easy to break the mountain, but it's hard to break the heart."
"Scholars who are interested in saints, the training of Waikong and Meng, and he asks, is to give up the light of the sun and the moon, and hope for the light in the subtlety of the fireflies, which is also absurd."
“……”
In one breath, he silently wrote everything he remembered, and copied the "Dogma of the Dragon's Field" three more times. It wasn't until his wrist ached for a while, and the stack of papers on the desk was exhausted, that he put down his pen and looked at the fly-headed little guy with satisfaction. Although it can't be compared with the Shen family brothers, who are brilliant in regular script, but among the younger generation, his regular script can also be regarded as a small achievement, and he lives up to Du Zhen's strict supervision in the past.
Although he was sleepy and hungry at this time, compared to the scene when he entered the door before, Zhang Yue's spirit was much better, and he simply got up and walked out of the back room. Seeing that the Lian Sheng Lianhu brothers outside did not return to the room, they just dozed off when they met on the kang, and he didn't wake them up, so he went out and went down the stairs with the curtains. At this time, the bright moon outside was breezy in the air, and he had just written in the house, and he was sweating profusely, so he simply punched in the courtyard. Only half of the game was played, and he heard a voice behind him.
"My lord is still boxing so late, but the depression in my heart is difficult to relieve?"
Zhang Yue stopped when he heard the sound, and when he saw Liu Da standing at the door, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then asked with a smile: "Now I'm afraid that everyone in Qingzhou City will change their names to call me a butcher, how can you dare to come to the door?" It's that Yicheng who has always been the best at blocking customers, and this time he was kind enough to let you in! ”
"Who doesn't know that I am an adult's henchman, and this master's nickname was also obtained because of the adult's promotion and recommendation, as soon as I reported my name, that Xu Yicheng was released without saying a word." Liu Da looked at Zhang Yue's face, and his heart suddenly understood, and then he stepped forward and said, "If you want to go back to Beijing, can you take me with you?" Everything I can teach has already been taught to those young men in Zihedian Village, and it is not of much use here, but I can still contribute to the adults. ”
