Chapter 281 Hype
Emperor Jingtai was in a very bad mood because of Jiang Lang's affairs, and he was so bored in the palace. When Mr. Qian saw this, he suggested to go out to visit the palace. Emperor Jingtai thought about it and agreed. Before he became the emperor, he often walked outside the palace. Now that he became the emperor, he was rarely out.
With Eunuch Qian and a few guards from the inner palace, Emperor Jingtai left the palace and the group dressed up in ordinary clothes. Emperor Jingtai turned into a young prince, while Eunuch Qian and others turned into his servants.
After leaving the palace, I walked around and came to the overpass. There were many folk jugglers on the overpass, and I went here to support the family. So the overpass has always been a very lively place. As soon as I arrived at the overpass, I saw that there were a lot of people around one of them. Compared with those juggling, I was a little deserted.
Emperor Jingtai couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw this. He closed the folding fan, tapped it lightly on his hand, pointed it again, and asked, "What's the matter there? Why are there so many people?"
Eunuch Qian stretched his neck and looked at it, and said, "When you say the young master, there is a storyteller in front of you!"
It is impossible to verify the specific dynasty of storytelling. However, storytelling is also a means of making a living. Many eloquent people tell stories to people in teahouses, overpasses and other places, earning some silver to support themselves. A good storytelling master is naturally sought after by many people.
"storytelling?"
Emperor Jingtai tapped the fan gently and said, "Let's go and listen too!"
This storytelling is a folk art, and the palace courtyard is gone, so Jingtaidi immediately became interested.
When Eunuch Qian heard this, he did not dare to stop him. He winked at the big guard beside him. The two guards immediately understood, walked to the emperor, then went to open the way, and squeezed the crowd and went straight to the innermost. The onlookers were squeezed away, and they were about to get angry, but when they saw that there were several burly men, they immediately shut up and thought nothing had happened. Emperor Jingtai squeezed into the innermost effortlessly under the guard's opening.
I saw a shriveled old man in his fifties and sixties, dressed in a slender dress, holding a white paper fan in his hand. Although the weather was already very cool now, the fan in his hand was not idle, and he was still slowly slapping. Now he was talking fiercely: "I think that when these two evil thieves saw that their crimes were exposed, they immediately wanted to capture Mama of the County as a hostage and then escape. So Wei Jinzhong relied on his strength to break free from the hands of the two guards and rushed towards Mama of the County! The movement was as fast as a wolf!"
Speaking of this, the storyteller stopped, picked up the tea on the stool next to him, and took a sip. The people around him stopped doing it. He immediately said, "Tell me quickly, what happened later? Master Ma of this county was captured?"
Many people immediately agreed.
The storyteller put down the teacup, waved the fan, and said, "What's the hurry? Think about it, this county master was appointed by the emperor. He took up the position of the factory supervisor of the East Factory at a young age. How powerful is this emperor's vision? How could the people he selected from? Seeing the evil thief rushing towards him, he saw that he was calm and regarded the evil thief as nothing. As soon as he made a move, he grabbed the evil thief's neck and lifted him up!"
While speaking, in order to cooperate with his words, the storyteller also demonstrated it to make the people around him feel more intuitive, and then said: "Think about it, this person is at least hundreds of pounds. He was pinched by the county horse and raised it up. It looked like a duck with its neck twisted. It was impossible for heaven to go to the ground, and it could not go to heaven or to go to the ground!"
After pausing, the storyteller immediately said, "When this evil thief was caught, the accomplices of the evil thief were still there to argue, but the county Ma Master said at that time: You two are guilty. Now the emperor ordered me to thoroughly investigate you. Now all your crimes have been investigated clearly. According to the law of our Ming Dynasty, you two should be punished! How can you forgive you? After the county Ma Master said that, he exerted his hand and heard a crack. The evil thief was immediately crushed to his neck and was ordered to go to the underworld!"
"good……!"
The people around immediately applauded and cheered, and some people even said, "This evil thief was killed well. I remember how many people in this capital were destroyed by their families and their families were killed. Now they are dead. That's true retribution, so they are killed well!"
Some people joked: "Master Ma in this county killed the evil thief, and the emperor should be promoted to him again!"
The storyteller shook his head, slapped his fan, and said, "Mr. Ma of this county is now the factory owner of the East Factory. What a great official he is. Moreover, he was ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate the matter. Killing these two people is also the emperor's wise and the emperor's kindness is great!"
Someone immediately echoed below: "Yes, yes, this is beneficial. I think the emperor has become a new throne, not only has he saved the capital, but also eliminated Wang Zhen's remnants. Now he has arranged for the county horse to get rid of this person. This shows that the emperor is indeed wise. Unfortunately, I can't see him, otherwise I must thank him and kowtow to him a few times!"
These words caused a lot of laughter, and some people said, "Don't even think about it. This emperor lives in the palace, how can ordinary people enter? Just keep the sound of the sound, and it's not too late to knock when he goes out for a tour!"
The person who said he wanted to kowtow quickly said, "You are right, so I will keep it. It's not too late to kowtow then!"
After the two of them finished speaking, someone was a little displeased and said, "Don't say anything about you two. You must kowtow this kowtow, and you have to wait for the emperor to come out. Master Ma in this county killed a evil thief, and what else should he do? The gentleman will tell us!"
The storyteller's eyes turned, and he opened the folding fan again, saying, "When the evil thief saw that the county Ma was so brave, he was immediately deflated and begged for mercy at the beginning, but how could the county Ma Ma beg him? He immediately asked someone to take him to the Ministry of Justice and asked him to deal with him. Someone quietly sent me a letter, indicating that he was beheaded at the Meridian Gate all day."
Someone clapped his hands below and said, "Okay, so I'll go and see it tomorrow."
As soon as this person's words fell, a sound of echo came to his mind.
Although Emperor Jingtai, who was mixed in the crowd, probably understood that the storyteller was exactly what he said in the morning, and the general meaning was that the county horse was ordered by the emperor to kill the two evil thieves. Although he had never given such an order, he was praised by the people as a wise king. No matter which emperor was happy to hear it, the people were not like those ministers, with flattery, and the anger in his heart gradually decreased. So he turned his head slightly and asked a man next to him: "Brother, would you like to ask what the storyteller said?"
The man turned his head and saw that the other party was a young man, so he did not hide it and said, "What he said is that the county horses were ordered to eliminate evil thieves. It seems that you are late, but this gentleman will say it later, so you can also listen. Some people say it in other places, but this gentleman said it best."
Emperor Jingtai bowed slightly and smiled, "Thank you for your reminder, brother."
After saying that, he turned his head and said to Mr. Qian: "Let's go."
Eunuch Qian felt uncomfortable now, and followed Emperor Jingtai out of the crowd and said, "Young Master, should you arrest the storyteller?"
"Why should I arrest you?"
Emperor Jingtai asked back, then turned his head to a guard next to him and said, "Get ten taels of silver and go reward the storyteller!"
How could Mr. Qian not see the changes in Emperor Jingtai? He couldn't help but sighed slightly and said no more, but he was a little puzzled, why did this storyteller know what happened in the morning so quickly?
After leaving the overpass, Emperor Jingtai and others continued to move forward. After walking along the way, they found that the people in the entire capital seemed very happy. In many teahouses, there were storytellers talking about what happened in the morning. The content was not far apart. At the same time, they also had the biggest common point, which was to praise Emperor Jingtai's wisdom. In contrast, Jiang Lang's image was not that prominent. Of course, another information was also revealed, that is, the remaining evil thief, that is, Dong Xiansheng, would be executed tomorrow morning.
After walking for a while, Emperor Jingtai suddenly stopped and said to Eunuch Qian: "Let's go, let's go to the Ministry of Justice."
Eunuch Qian was stunned and said strangely: "Young Master, go to the Ministry of Justice now?"
Emperor Jingtai nodded and said, "Go to the Ministry of Justice to see if these two people are extremely guilty. If this is true, although these two people are officials of the court, it is natural for Wang Dacai to kill Wei Jinzhong. I don't plan to investigate whether it was left intentionally by the Third Prince and the others. I don't want to ask whether it was deliberately left by the Third Prince. At the same time, at noon tomorrow, I will behead Dong Xiansheng to public to quell the anger of the people and to correct the law of the country!"
