Chapter 105: Forbidden Pigs
Zhengde slowly lowered his head and opened a black package beside him, which was suddenly found on the pillow when Zhengde was about to go to bed just now, Zhengde clearly remembered that there was nothing on the pillow, which means that the thing was unknowingly put on his pillow when he was making trouble with the assassin, if that person was really an assassin...... Thinking of this, Zhengde couldn't help but be a little frightened.
I saw Zhengde take out a rectangular white jade plaque from the package, touch the beautifully carved dragon pattern on it, Zhengde unfolded it in his hand, and saw two five-clawed jade dragons grasping two big characters in the ancient Wei body in their claws - Tianmen!
The back of the white jade plaque is also engraved with eight big characters: "If I come in person, Hongwu Guorui"
Hongwu is the name of the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Guorui is his word, this is the token given to Tianmen by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhengde is also the first time to see, but he has seen the picture of this brand in the royal secret book, as well as a detailed description of it.
"Tianmen ......" Zhengde's heart flew around, and he picked up another thing in the package again, which was a booklet that looked like an account book, opened it and only glanced at it, Zhengde couldn't help but slam the booklet onto the bed again.
Qian Ning and Jiang Bin, who were guarding the door, shrugged their ears almost at the same time, the emperor was blind and didn't sleep in the black light, this is not a good thing, could it be that the assassin just made trouble? The two turned their heads to look at each other almost at the same time, then each snorted and twisted their heads away: "Assassin...... Who could it be, he sent? ”
Duan Fei was also a little frightened this night, if the emperor was assassinated in his family, even if it was just a false alarm, it would be a big sin, but fortunately, nothing happened until dawn.
Zhengde and his entourage resigned to Duan Fei early in the morning, Duan Fei had the intention to keep and wished he to leave quickly, Zhengde suddenly smiled at him and said: "Duan Fei, Jiangxi is in serious trouble, and the officials there have also lost half of Tai due to the battle of King Ning, and this moment is the time when there is a shortage of capable manpower, I am ready to recommend you to Jiangxi to serve as a procurator and envoy, I don't know if you are willing?" ”
Duan Fei was overjoyed and said: "Yes, of course I am willing, thank you Brother Zhu for your kindness, if I really go to Nanchang Mansion, I will do my best and die, and I will never let down Brother Zhu's love." ”
Even the procuratorial envoy who is in charge of criminal cases in the province has only the authority to try cases below the prison sentence (including imprisonment, that is, cases below the head of the head), and cases above the prison sentence must be reported to the criminal department for trial, and there is no person in charge of the post of commissioner, so it is relatively easy to fool and pass the test.
Zhengde looked at Tang Bohu, who came out to see him off, and said, "Does Master Tang have the heart to enter the office?" I can recommend the master to enter the Hanlin Academy as a bachelor, I don't know if Master Tang is willing to give in? ”
With Tang Bohu's identity as Xie Yuan and his current influence in the literary world, it is indeed a little aggrieved to go to the Hanlin Academy to teach bachelors from the five grades, but Tang Bohu was implicated in the imperial examination fraud case during the Hongzhi period of filial piety, although it turned out to be an unjust case, but for the majesty of the royal family, the person involved was still punished, and the chief examiner of the year even left a pen to die, Zhengde is a filial son, although he admires Tang Bohu's talent, but he cannot go against the will of the emperor, completely rehabilitate Tang Bohu, and arrange a big official for him to do, Besides, Tang Bohu is old, and it is no longer suitable to start from the grassroots level, so it is better to go to Hanlin Hospital for the elderly.
Tang Bohu sighed lightly and rejected his kindness: "It's too late, Tang Mou was given the number six by the East family as a layman, everything has a way, like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, it should be viewed as such." Fame and fortune are a thing of the past for Tang, if the owner doesn't give up, I want to go to Jiangxi with me. ”
"That's really good, I don't dare to ask for it." Duan Fei was overjoyed again, Tang Bohu smiled slightly, the two of them bowed their heads to each other, Zhengde sighed lightly, and said: "In this case, I am not reluctant, the so-called reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, I hope the master will make another breakthrough in the smelting tour and eventually become a generation of grandmasters!" ”
Duan Fei sent Zhengde out of the door, and when the two of them said goodbye, a big car came from outside the city, and it was already smelly before it was close, and passers-by smelled it and avoided it, only to see that the big car was loaded with a cage of big pigs, these pigs were unwashed, piled up there, and came from a long journey, all of which were directly excreted on the car, and naturally smelly.
I only heard the big man who drove the car shouting in his mouth: "Sell pigs, sell pigs, live pigs slaughtered on the spot, the meat is delicious, if you want to buy pork, please go to the Li family butcher shop in Xicheng vegetable market, the real pork, the pig's head, pig's trotters, pig's tail, pig's nose, you can cut which piece you want......
Hearing this series of pig selling sounds, Zhengde's face couldn't help sinking, and he snorted coldly: "These people who raise pigs and sell pigs are really hateful, the Ming Dynasty takes Zhu as the national surname, these people don't know the slightest taboo, and now the saint should really make a decree to prohibit raising pigs and killing pigs, and to ban eating pork." ”
Duan Fei was taken aback, this person in front of him was the current saint, he was afraid that it would be difficult to take it back as soon as his golden words came out, if this pig ban order was really conveyed, the impact on people's livelihood would be disastrous with a wide range of aspects, Zhengde still wanted to be a Ming Jun yesterday, and such a ridiculous idea came up today, it was really difficult to serve.
Jiang Bin and Qian Ning didn't think so, and the two of them immediately echoed it, one said that pig manure smelled bad and would cause epidemics, and the other said that eating pork would cause sores, and after a while, this animal that was most closely related to the Chinese in the zodiac became a useless and unforgivable guy.
Seeing that Jiang Bin suggested that the people should not be fed, and that they should not be slaughtered, if they violated, the criminals and their immediate family members would have to be sent to the extreme to serve in the army forever, Duan Fei chuckled lightly and said, "May I ask the three brothers, have you ever eaten pork?" ”
Zhengde, Jiang Bin, and Qian Ning were all stunned when they heard this, Duan Fei smiled: "I'm afraid that except for people who are too poor to afford pork, they will never eat pork, pigs are actually the unknown heroes of our Ming Dynasty, I think when Emperor Taizu was confined by Guo Zixing, Empress Xiaoci Gao stole the meat cake, Huai Yijin, the meat is burnt, and the pork cake has the merit of saving the car." ”
Qian Ning wanted to pat himself on the back, and retorted: "Empress Xiaoci Gao stole cooking cakes, not meat cakes, right?" ”
Duan Fei said as a scoundrel: "I don't remember very clearly, in short, Emperor Taizu must have eaten pork, there can't be anything wrong with this, right?" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't just eat pork, when he was still a rogue monk, he was famous for drinking wine and eating meat in large bowls, Duan Fei carried out Taizu, and Qian Ning suddenly didn't dare to pick up the stubble......
