"Bao Zheng, Chen Shimei?"

Hearing Liu Xing's rebellious words, the Xuanhui envoy was stunned.

After looking around, he looked at Liu Xingdao: "Mrs. Liu, the Bao Shi system is indeed a good official who is a clean official and strict in law enforcement, but who is Chen Shimei?" Why would you want to turn down such a good marriage? ”

Seeing Xuanhui so stunned, and then seeing that everyone including Lian Hui was also surprised, Liu Xing suddenly woke up in his heart: I went, and the master forgot that Chen Shimei was only sung in the opera, not a person who really lived in the Song Dynasty.

Now in a hurry, a person who did not appear in the Song Dynasty and who was not in the same era as Bao Zheng was moved out to refuse to marry, what a big fuss it is!

Why did Liu Xing think of these things first? That's because thousands of years later, out of curiosity, in the years when the film and television drama works with the theme of Bao Heitan were popular, Liu Xing had found a lot of information through various channels and pondered what kind of person Bao Zheng was in history.

At that time, after a patchwork of those things, Liu Xing knew that Bao Longtu was a good official and a clean official, but he had definitely never dealt with the case of "Tanuki for Prince". And Chen Shimei's greed for wealth and wealth, abandoning his wife and killing his children, was added to Bao Zheng for a drama gimmick when a foreign dynasty ruled the Central Plains hundreds of years later.

So what is the real situation of the Quanmei case in history?

According to the information found by Liu Xing at that time, the real Chen Shimei should be an official of the Whip Dynasty. Formerly known as Nian Gu, also known as Shumei, a native of Junzhou, Hubei, was born in the family of officials.

In the early Qing Dynasty, he traveled to Beijing to study. Later, he was admitted to the Jinshi. He was appointed as the magistrate of a certain place in Hebei for the first time. Later, he was appreciated by the Tartar Emperor. He was promoted to Guizhou Branch Shou Siren Mansion and Shidao Inspector, and also served as a political envoy to participate in politics.

When he was an official in Guizhou, his fellow villagers came to vote and seek official positions, and he received them many times and persuaded him to study hard in order to advance. Later, due to the large number of investors, it was difficult to deal with them, so the chief housekeeper was instructed to refuse.

Hu Mengdie, a classmate who lives in Qinjiapo, a suburb of Junzhou. In the past, when he went to Beijing to take the examination, he used money to help him, but because he was rejected by the chief housekeeper, he suddenly felt revenge, so he pinched together some things in the society that were promoted to become rich, ungrateful and abandoned his wife and children, and added it to him, and compiled it into a drama "Qin Xianglian", which was performed in Shaanxi, Henan and other places.

Legend has it that at the end of the Qing Dynasty, when a Henan troupe went to Junzhou to perform this play, one of Chen's descendants was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. and beat the actors, killed and injured several people, and the performance was forced to stop.

Ordinary people don't take this play seriously, but the residents surnamed Chen in Junzhou have always taken this matter seriously. said that this play wronged a good person, so he was indignant. Chen Shimei's play is not allowed to be staged in Junxian.

A few years later, the Hubei Provincial Folklore Research Association carried out a comprehensive collection and sorting of folk literature, and the local people complained about Chen Shimei's grievances, and gradually published it in words.

The grievances against Chen Shimei have spread at home and abroad, attracting more and more folklore scholars and relevant departments to study and pay attention to them.

An old man in Junzhou, who is also the hometown of Junzhou after a thousand years, spent decades of painstaking efforts to solve the mystery of Chen Shimei, he believes that Chen Shimei is indeed a person in history, and the local folklore and the inscription about Chen Shimei found in the hometown of Junzhou later records that Chen Shimei is a clean official who is honest, upright, and aware of the people's feelings.

The so-called dislike of the poor and the love of the rich, the killing of wives and children, which were imposed on him, were the work of people who were jealous of the virtuous and capable.

Therefore, there is a saying in Junxian County that "Beimen Street does not sing Chen Shimei, and Qinjialou does not sing Qin Xianglian".

How could Chen Shimei of the Qing Dynasty be Bao Gong of the Song Dynasty?

For many years, although "The Case of Quanmei" has been sung in the world and made Chen Shimei notorious, judging from the large amount of materials collected now, "The Case of Quanmei" is indeed a historical "unjust case" on the theater stage.

It is rumored that on the sixteenth day of the first month of a certain year in the Qing Dynasty, there was an opera troupe that performed "Qin Xianglian Holding the Pipa". There are a lot of people watching the play, they think the play is too short and the song is less than half a day, so they refuse to disperse.

The head of the class had no choice but to add a short scene of "Chenzhou Grain" in front of the main play.

The play sang until noon, and Chen Shimei's family general Han Qi was ordered to hunt down and kill Qin Xianglian, and let Qin Xianglian go. Han Qi killed herself, and Qin Xianglian pulled her children to fall in a pool of blood......

It's all over again.

The people watching the play refused to leave, and everyone shouted in unison: "Kill Chen Shimei!"

Bricks and tiles came to the stage.

The supervisor was so anxious that he was like ants on a hot pot, and he didn't dare to show his head at the front desk, so he quickly slipped to the backstage.

At this time, "Bao Gong", who sang "Chenzhou Grain", had not yet loaded, and he asked: "What's wrong with the audience?" What happened? ”

When the foreman saw "Bao Gong", he suddenly had an idea, thought about it, and pushed him and said, "Quick, come to the front desk and continue to sing."

"Bao Gong" said: "You are in a hurry! I am in the Song Dynasty and Chen Shimei is in the Qing Dynasty, hundreds of years apart, how can I sing on the same stage? ”

"Oh, when it comes to this, it doesn't matter if he is in the same dynasty or in the same dynasty!" The head of the squad said: "Chen Shimei is such a big horse official, who dares to kill him?" Only you're 'Bao Heizi' iron-faced and selfless can kill him, and let out his anger to the people, even if it's a bad show. ”

The black-faced Bao Gong had to redress his clothes, and took Wang Dynasty, Ma Han, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu to the scene. sang until he threw Chen Shimei into the table, and the audience cheered. Since then, the small drama "Qin Xianglian Holding the Pipa" has become the big drama "The Case of Quanmei......

The interpretation of folk artists unintentionally staged a big oolong like Guan Gong and Qin Qiong in order to save the scene, and with the spread of opera, film and television and other works, it seems to have become a kind of folk legend after a thousand years.

If this legend were changed to a previous life, no one would be surprised if Liu Xing quoted it at this moment, because everyone understood that those acting characters were dramatic characters worthy of hatred rather than characters who really existed in history. Knowing the benefits, but not delving into the facts.

But in front of these people in front of them, it is really a big joke to tell such a so-called folklore that does not exist.

But Liu Xing didn't want to make jokes about himself, so he glanced sideways at Hui on the side, and thought about it.

I don't know what to say, Liu Xing frowned and kept silent, and indeed "re-wrote" the story of the Quanmei case in his heart. In the end, I still secretly said in my heart: If one person says any story, everyone may not believe it, and two people will believe it when they say it.

If the old monster can stand up and tell this story to the master now, at least one story that can make people suspicious is enough for the master to find an excuse to refuse this marriage. It's just that I don't know if the old monster can help the master at a critical moment......

Who is Hui? When Liu Xing "wrote" the story in his heart, he had actually guessed a little bit of Liu Xing's intentions.

When Liu Xingcai thought about asking him to help, the old monster opened his mouth and directly told the story that Liu Xing had in mind. (To be continued.) )
