Lord Mengchang, the leader of the four princes of the Warring States Period, had a retainer named Feng Yuan who went to Xuecheng to collect debts for Lord Mengchang. Instead of collecting the debts, Feng Xu burned all the bonds in front of the debtors. Lord Mengchang was very disappointed.
He was angry, and after listening to Feng Huan's explanation, he was still displeased. Later, Lord Mengchang had a disagreement with the King of Qi, so he resigned and returned to Xuecheng.
The benefit of the human heart is the allusion to the famous "Three Caves of a Cunning Rabbit". Eunuch Zhong is not the kind of confused eunuch who is illiterate and has no self-awareness. He is also vaguely worried that after he leaves Hangzhou, this temple will be demolished or used for other purposes.
, his original plan was to ask Zhang Qilian, Bao Hanshuo and other officials to help take care of him, but he also knew that he had no deep friendship with these officials. If he returned to Beijing and could occupy a high position in the inner court and hold power, then the officials in Hangzhou would naturally flatter him, and there would be no need to worry about any consequences.
The temple was demolished, but once he lived in the unpopular Supervision Bureau, who would care about him? After listening to Zhang Yuan's words, he suddenly became enlightened, laughed loudly, and said: "Master Zhang can be called a good teacher and friend of our family.
"My family heard that since the people of Hangzhou call our family the meritorious masters of the West Lake, then our family will do another great charity and build an almshouse." The eunuch's laughter was a bit dull, especially in the quiet night, he was like a night owl.
Normally, Zhang Yuan's hair stood up when he heard this. Fortunately, Eunuch Zhong stopped laughing quickly and said: "Master Zhang, it will cost a lot of money to build the almshouse. Although our family has some savings, we can't put it all in. We will go back next year."
Jing still has to take care of everything.--Piaotian Literature--Mobile Novel Site..." Zhang Yuan smiled and asked: "How much money are you willing to pay to buy your reputation?"
Eunuch Zhong thought about it for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "If it doesn't exceed ten thousand taels, our family can still raise money." Zhang Yuan said, "Then father-in-law, please give me nine thousand taels of silver. Father-in-law, I am still a little selfish, and I would like to ask my father-in-law for help."
.…,
"Sisty?..." Eunuch Zhong said with a smile, "Our family will do our best to help anyone we can." It's easy to make friends with people who are simulant.
Zhang Yuandao said: "If my father-in-law alone raised funds to build the almshouse at the foot of Baoshi Mountain and take in and provide relief to the sick, disabled and lonely, I'm afraid ten thousand taels of silver would not be enough. Moreover, if my father-in-law contributed too much money by himself, some people would criticize my father-in-law for being corrupt. I thought that my father-in-law would be greedy."
Eight thousand taels of silver is enough. For the other money, my father-in-law can ask the wealthy officials and gentry in Hangzhou to raise money. With my father-in-law’s initiative, it shouldn’t be difficult to raise another tens of thousands taels of silver. When my father-in-law returns to Beijing in the future, the nursing home will still have to pay.
It is not managed by the government, but as long as Jiao Zhuangyuan's inscription is there, the reputation of benevolence and righteousness in planning the construction of the Yangtze Yuan will always be one of my father-in-law's.
"Eunuch Zhong nodded repeatedly, and the remaining worries were completely dispelled.
Zhang Yuan said again: "I told my father-in-law the day before yesterday that my uncle built a charity warehouse in Shanyin and I served as the official of the community. However, I am young and low-ranking, so I have only raised thousands of stones of grain." Zhang Yuan did not wait.
After Yuan finished speaking, Eunuch Zhong already understood Zhang Yuan's "simultaneity" and smiled: "We understand what you mean. I advise our family to provide 9,000 taels of silver, build an almshouse, 8,000 taels, and donate the other 1,000 taels to
Shanyin Yicang, right? It turns out that this is the evil spirit, haha." Zhang Yuanzuo bowed and said, "Please do it, Mr. Zhong." Eunuch Zhong said with emotion: "Mr. Zhang, although we are internal officials, we also know how to write and be polite.
Over the years, I have seen many people from the court to the local government, but I have never seen such a heartless person. He has the style of an ancient sage, which makes our family sincerely admire him. Our family can afford less than 10,000 taels.
Our family will provide 10,000 taels, 8,000 taels to build the Baoshishan Sanatorium, and 2,000 taels to support the Shanyin charity warehouse. - Piao Tian Literature - Mobile Novel Site "The silver has changed from one thousand to two thousand, of course Zhang Yuan is happy, Eunuch Zhong, he
It was definitely a mistake to look at him without any sibilance. How could a person not have simultaneity? It's just that his vision was broader and far-reaching. He bowed deeply at that moment: "My father-in-law is very righteous. Zhang Yuan would like to express his gratitude to your father-in-law on behalf of the people affected by the disaster in Shanyin."
The eunuch took Zhang Yuan to sit down and said with a smile: "Our family donated two thousand taels of silver, and we have to leave our names on it. When the time comes, I will write to the Shanyin charity warehouse and remember to mention our family's righteous deed."
Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "That's natural, but it's better to convert the two thousand taels of silver from my father-in-law into rice. Nowadays, the price of rice in Shaoxing and Hangzhou has skyrocketed. In the past, one tael of silver could buy two stones of rice, but now it can only buy one stone, but
The Songjiang area has not suffered from drought or flood, and the price of rice is stable. Can my father-in-law send two official ships to Songjiang to buy 4,000 tons of grain and transport it to Shanyin, so that the people of Shanyin will benefit more?" Although the price of rice in Songjiang is higher than that in Shanin,
It is nearly half cheaper, but if it is a civilian ship or a merchant ship to buy rice, there are five tax customs from Hangzhou to Jiaxing. To transport rice from Songjiang to Shanyin, the taxes, shipping fees, and labor fees are almost equal to the rice grains in the two places.
The price difference was one minute. The eunuch shook his head and smiled and said: "Master Zhang, no one can match him for his shrewdness. Our family just likes his shrewdness. We just concentrate on searching in Nanping Thatched Cottage, except for asking Jiao Zhuangyuan for the inscription."
Don't worry about it. When I return to Shanyin at the end of next month, I will have four thousand kilo of rice with me." Zhang Yuan visited the eunuch Zhong tonight, and the eunuch paid a huge sum of ten thousand taels. If measured in RMB four hundred years later,
Ten thousand taels of silver is roughly equivalent to more than 7 million yuan. Although the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau is rich in oil and water, ten thousand taels of silver is obviously not a sum for Eunuch Zhong. However, Eunuch Zhong donated such a huge sum of money not only not feeling sad, but also feeling happy. This is
Zhang Yuan’s ability.
Zhang Yuan agreed to ask Jiao Fa to write the inscription for the Yangjiyuan for Eunuch Zhong. Zhang Yuan did not dare to neglect it. He was thinking about how to tell Teacher Jiao about this. This matter must be done well. On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Yuan attended Baoshi Mountain.
During the ceremony to welcome the statue of Eunuch Zhong and receive incense, officials from the three departments of Zhejiang Province came to congratulate him. Qin Minping took eight local soldiers to Lingyin Temple to carry the wooden statue of Eunuch Zhong to Baoshi Mountain.
After the person who benefited one party left, the people felt his virtue and built a temple to commemorate him. Eunuch Zhong was still in Hangzhou, and the temple was built. He even personally participated in welcoming the statue and offering incense. This is really a strange thing. Dongyang wood carving craftsmen are exquisite in craftsmanship.
There are five or six statues of the eunuch wearing the clock that are very similar. They are dressed in the style of Zheng He, the eunuch with the Three Treasures. People gathered around to watch the excitement along the way. I didn’t see anyone paying homage, and there were many who were snickering and slandering.
It is very likely that the statue of the eunuch was dragged out and burned as firewood as soon as he left Hangzhou. The so-called people in Hangzhou called Eunuch Zhong the meritorious figure of the West Lake was made up by Zhang Yuan on that day, but if the almshouse is built, Eunuch Zhong will really be the meritorious figure of the West Lake.
Lord, the people will be grateful for his kindness. The temple in Baoshishan may last for a long time. Jiaofa is old and cannot go to Juran Cottage to teach every morning like Huang Ruheng did. He comes once every three days to accept questions from students. At the beginning of September
On the morning of the 10th, Jiao Zhuangyuan, who had a beard as hairy as snow, came to Juran Caotang. Everyone present asked Jiao Zhuangyuan questions based on the classics.
ps, it goes without saying that I am happy when all the daily problems are suddenly solved - the original text of Zhang Zhang is the Spring and Autumn Period, and his question is about the identification of the Spring and Autumn Period. Jiao Fa pointed out: "Although the Spring and Autumn Period is about praise and criticism,
However, there are some who are not entirely like this, some are judgmental, some are reasoning, some are disputing, some are secular, some are inventive, some are emphasizing teaching, some are emphasizing precepts, some are testing, and some are sighing.
, there are those who belong to Wang, and their bodies are different, so it is difficult to judge. If you don't know this, the composition will not fit into the style. How can you get it based on its subjects? Recently, I can say nothing about the body, but as for other bodies, I am confused. Sometimes there are
Those who know it must also coincide with each other, and those who cannot really know it will just advertise it, so they will not violate it. If the body of the body does not match, then even if the words are added, there is no hope of being selected, so this is a sutra, and it is urgent to distinguish the body."
At that moment, Jiao Fa saw each body coming one by one, and all the people present who were studying the Spring and Autumn Period felt enlightened. With the guidance of a master who understood the Five Classics, one hour was worth several months of suffering.
In the evening of that day, Zhang Yuan and Zong Yishan went to Bao's South Garden under the Leifeng Pagoda to meet Jiao Fa. They were considered Jiao Zhan's disciples and could go to him at any time to ask for advice on any difficulties they encountered while writing. However, today Zhang Yuan
I went to ask Teacher Jiao to write an inscription for Eunuch Zhong Yangjiyuan. Along the way, Zhang Yuan was thinking about the wording and discussed it with Zong Yishan. He knew that it would not be easy to convince Teacher Jiao to write this invitation letter. Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yuan
Zong Yishan walked through the rockery in the stone forest and the beams of the stream and bridge, and saw Jiao Fa, accompanied by his son Jiao Runsheng, looking at the flowing water on a single-arch stone bridge. The Leifeng Pagoda not far away reflected its brilliance in the setting sun. He saw Zhang Yuan
When the two came, Jiao Fa smiled and said: "The two of them have the most questions. Didn't they finish asking them in the lecture?"
Zhang Yuandao: "Teacher, two years before I was born, there were few books and few doubts. Now, the more books there are, the more doubts there are. Why?"
Jiao Fa said: "Knowing is the idea of doing, and doing is the effort of knowing. Knowing is the beginning of doing, and doing is the completion of knowing. You can't just seek answers in books, but you can also verify them through doing."
With this opportunity, Zhang Yuan went directly to the topic and said: "Eunuch Zhong of the Weaving Department had some friendship with Sheng because he had previously helped Shizhu to proselytize Ma Qiancheng to clear his grievances. General Ma was grateful for Eunuch Zhong's kindness and he was also favored by Eunuch Zhong.
After hearing the imperial edict, he built a shrine for him in Baoshi Mountain. He felt that this was a waste of money and wasting money, but he couldn't persuade him..."
Jiao Fa shook his head and muttered: "It is unreasonable for people who are still serving their sentences. The day before yesterday, Eunuch Zhong asked his deputy to come and ask Lao Ya to write a memorial for his birthplace. Does he think that everyone in the world is as shameless as him? He has been beaten by me a long time ago.
Rejected!" Looking at Zhang Yuan, Zong Yishan said: "The two of us live in the Weaving Department, but don't go near the ink."
Zhang Yuandao: "Being born to write down truth is also to influence others. Although there are some who are close to the black and black, but a true gentleman can't impress others with his own noble teachings?"
Jiao Fa smiled and felt that Zhang Yuan was cute and naive. The young man did not know the hardships of the world. The truth was correct. But the Master traveled around the world and Mencius traveled among the princes. Even the sages of the two saints could not sell their ambitions. A sixteen-year-old boy has to influence a person.
How can a mercenary eunuch be influenced by the law?
Zhang Yuandao: "Everything depends on guidance. Eunuch Zhong has a good reputation and guides students in the name of good righteousness and good deeds. Eunuch Zhong listened to his words and was willing to use the 8,000 taels of silver that he planned to expand the temple to build a temple.
hospital to provide relief to the poor affected by this year’s disaster.”
Jiao Fa said happily: "It's great if there is such a thing. This is a great act of kindness."
Zhang Yuandao: "Eunuch Zhong admires the teacher's reputation and still wants to ask the teacher to write an inscription."
Jiao Zhan shook his head and said: "I cannot write the inscriptions on the birthplace of the temple. I will be laughed at."
Zhang Yuandao: "Teacher has not benefited from Eunuch Zhong in the slightest, so he is open-minded, so why should he be afraid of what others say? Moreover, Eunuch Zhong did not ask Teacher to write notes for his birthplace, but to write notes for the Yangtze Academy. Eunuchs like to have a false reputation, and they will think about it after doing good deeds.
Let people know, why doesn’t the teacher reluctantly do this and promote this kind deed?”
Jiao Zhan muttered: "I have always kept myself clean, and I don't want to have anything to do with internal officials. But Eunuch Zhong is doing good deeds this time, so he will make an exception. It's just that I have been in low spirits recently. Please write down this kind of entertainment for me first."
Read it once.”
What he had to rely on was the reputation of Jiao Fa, the champion, and Wenzong. It was also common for social texts to be written by living people. Zhang Yuan returned to the residence of the Weaving Department and wrote a more than 700-word account of the Zhong Family Sanatorium in Baoshishan overnight.
When he showed it to Jiao Fa, he made slight changes and wrote on a large rice paper with a bell seal. Although Jiao Fa is not famous for his calligraphy, his regular script is timeless and charming, with the style of Jin people.
He stood and said, "This inscription cannot be erected until the construction of the nursing home begins. We must urge Eunuch Zhong to start construction as soon as possible."
Zhang Yuan went to see Eunuch Zhong with the record of the Zhong Family Almshouse in Baoshishan written by Jiao Fa. Eunuch Zhong was so happy that he immediately donated 8,000 taels of silver, selected a site at the foot of Baoshishan to build the almshouse, and went to Hangzhou to solicit donations.
, those bureaucrats and wealthy silk merchants still have to flatter Eunuch Zhong. In just half a month, eighteen thousand taels of silver were raised. The Textile Department and the Hangzhou Prefecture jointly planned to build the Yangtze Yuan, and sent special personnel to manage the Yangtze Yuan. Everything was carried out in an orderly manner in Songjiang Prefecture.
To the west of Longmen Temple in Huating County, there is a magnificent mansion with a grand door, painted pillars, carved beams, red balusters and curved sills. It is a magnificent mansion. This is the mansion of the famous scholar Dong Qichang and Dong Hanlin. The Dong family's mansion is far more than this one.
By the Changsheng Bridge in the west of the city, in front of the Maji Temple in the northwest corner, there is also the Bailong Pond on the outskirts of the city, the Dong family's residence, more than ten gardens, pavilions and pavilions, and the Libi Palace. On the afternoon of September 15th, when he was nearly sixty years old,
Dong Qichang, who wears a loose robe and has an elegant and delicate appearance, is painting in the "Painting Zen Room". The Painting Zen Room is a two-story wooden building with exquisite construction. It is where Dong Qichang paints. Two beautiful maids are brushing paper and studying ink while Dong Qichang is writing.
Ding Dian painted a picture of clouds and autumn mist, imitating Ni Yunlin's brushwork, cold forests and rocks, and a pure and pure meaning. He was immersed in the painting, but was disturbed by footsteps rushing upstairs. Dong Qichang was very angry. He was not allowed to paint.
If someone comes to disturb him, this will destroy the elegant mood that he has been brewing for a long time. Painting cannot be done by just picking up the pen. You must be in the mood to paint. As soon as the maid who hurriedly came upstairs could speak, Dong Qichang shouted:
"Slap your mouth first and then speak twenty words."
The maid's face turned pale, so she had to slap herself twenty times on the left, right, and left, until her face turned red. Then she said aggrievedly: "Master, the second young master is back. He was beaten in Hangzhou."
There is a lot to do on the first day of work after the holiday. I have written it down to now, and I have four thousand words. Please give me a monthly pass.
