"When the root reaches the nine springs without bends, only the dragon knows it"
The new exhibit is a stone platform with two lines of poems written on it, and the inscription is a pair of iron shackles.
Shi Ying knew these two lines of poetry, and the full text was: Awe-inspiring and daring to deceive each other, it's not surprising to fly straight into the sky. The root reaches the nine springs without any bends, and only the Hidden Dragon knows it in the world.
It is a poem written by Su Shi when he first became an official. It expresses his upright character. However, it was misunderstood by some people who thought Su Shi was disloyal to the emperor. The reason is that there is a real dragon in the world, but Su Shi wants his own character.
Let the Hidden Dragon underground know, "What else can I do if I don't surrender?"
The emperor agreed with the accusations made by the interested party and threw Su Shi into Yushitai Prison.
It is known as the "Wutai Poetry Case" in history.
In fact, the cause of the Wutai Poetry Case, the Gao Dynasty, and the outcome have nothing to do with this poem. This poem was just a distorted interpretation by the censors at the time to accuse Su Shi.
Song Shenzong was not stupid enough to convict Su Shi directly because of a poem. It was just because the reformists at that time needed a target, and Su Shi was the most suitable. In the end, Su Shi was exempted from the death penalty and relegated to Huangzhou. The last part of Su Shi's life
A poem says: I ask you about your life achievements, Huangzhou, Huizhou and Danzhou. The Huangzhou that was demoted was the Waterloo of his fate.
Do the poems and shackles that appear here mean that this prince-in-law, like Su Shi, was reported and imprisoned for his writing? Based on the previous exhibits, I wonder what he has done and written, and whether he has also become a certain person.
He became a thorn in the side and became a target for some people to deal with political opponents. In the end, his right hand was cut off.
Shi Ying thought of the right hand that had been neatly chopped off. Now it seemed that she had basically connected the story of the owner of the hand.
When I was young, I studied in an academy. When I was successful in my studies, I was captured by the royal family and became the consort of Princess Shang. Then I was framed by the Literary Prison during the official strife. After I was released from prison, I found that the princess had been sentenced to death. Finally, I was beheaded during the funeral of the princess.
His right hand has been full of literary talent all his life.
Without the hairpin and the farewell, does the hairpin mean that he was poor when he was young, and the farewell means that he values friendship? Or do both of them show that he values friendship? Shi Ying shook her head and rejected this idea. Changzhi was obviously killed.
, the cause of death is probably the letter written by the consort.
However, because the blood contaminated most of the content, Shi Ying had no way of knowing the exact content of the farewell letter, and it was impossible to infer the cause of Changzhi's death. There was a missing link in the information chain.
Shi Ying walked to the next booth, but found no exhibits. Looking forward, the shadowy outline of the booth that had been there before disappeared. It seemed that this was the last exhibit.
Shi Ying was wondering where the exhibits here had gone when he saw a suspended air screen lighting up above the booth, like a holographic projection, but Shi Ying didn't notice any projection equipment.
In the picture, a young man dressed as a scholar was standing in front of the table, arranging his clothes in front of the mirror, and a male voice sounded from far away: "Changzhi, please lend me a hairpin."
Shi Ying exclaimed, it turned out that this was Changzhi, he was very good-looking.
After hearing the words, Changzhi turned around and looked at the person: "Brother Qingyuan, what's wrong?"
Shi Ying: Very good, the protagonist has appeared.
Qingyuan also had the appearance of a handsome young man, with his hair disheveled. He said helplessly: "When I was tying my hair, I occasionally came up with a wonderful sentence, but I shook my hand and broke the hairpin."
Changzhi turned around with a smile, took out a jade hairpin from the drawer, and handed it to Qingyuan: "Brother Qingyuan, please tie some hair in your hair. I don't have too many hairpins for you to occasionally come up with a good sentence."
Qingyuan's face turned slightly red, and he shook his head and pushed the hosta back: "Changzhi just gives me a wooden hairpin. The hosta is precious, and I'm afraid of bumping it."
Changzhi did not insist, and turned around to replace the wooden hairpin. It was exactly the normal appearance of the second exhibit. The scene showed a close-up of the hands of the two of them, and then slowly faded until it disappeared.
Shi Ying fell into deep thought. What is there to say about the friendship between classmates? Among her male classmates in college, let alone borrowing clothes and exchanging shoes, eating the same meal and drinking the same bottle of water, they even called each other father.
Yes, although the friendship between boys is confusing, it seems to be very common.
What if it's not friendship? It seems that it was not uncommon for the ancients to have their sleeves cut off. Suppose that Qingyuan liked his classmate named Changzhi, so he kept the hairpin he gave him back then.
Then when he learned that Changzhi was leaving the capital and the two would never see each other again, he wrote a farewell letter and sent someone to deliver it.
But there is no airtight wall in the world. When the princess learned that the consort actually liked a man, she felt that her dignity had been challenged, so she sent someone to assassinate Changzhi on his way out.
It felt surprisingly smooth, and Shi Ying gave a thumbs up to his idea.
But there is still a little question. As for the two sets of wedding clothes for the wedding, one is the princess's consort, and the other is Changzhi's, and is Changzhi a military commander.
Changzhi once studied with Qingyuan, but later went north with the general. Did he abandon literature and join the military? Looking at Changzhi’s small body in the video, he didn’t look like he could put on that groom’s dress, but he was wearing women’s clothes.
good.
Wait, women's clothing, what if Changzhi is Zhu Yingtai.
The suspicion of Qingyuan's broken sleeves was cleared, the existence of the wedding dress was justified, and Changzhi's death was smooth.
The whole thing is now very clear. The message that the exhibition hall wants to express is almost clear, but there is still one thing missing, the purpose of the exhibition hall.
Shi Ying murmured: What do you want me to do by letting me know such a story?
Shi Ying couldn't see the next booth, and there was no next booth, so she didn't move forward.
A larger and more realistic projection appeared in the air. It was Qingyuan in mourning clothes. The ratio between the projection and the reality was almost one to one. For a moment, Shi Ying felt that Qingyuan was really standing not far in front of her.
Qingyuan's back swung the knife with his left hand and chopped off his right hand.
A severed hand flew up, a stream of blood spurted out, and a muffled groan sounded.
A cloud of light dispersed.
The scene was so real that Shi Ying's heart stopped for a moment, and by the time she realized it was a false projection, the scene was quickly dissipating.
A line of words appeared in the void in front of him: When Qingyuan cut off his right hand, was he regretting that he had written the farewell letter and killing Changzhi, or was he regretting that he had gained power and suffered a literary inquisition and implicated the princess?
Shi Ying was silent, why did this sentence pattern sound so familiar.
The light characters spread out, revealing two passages, one on the left and one on the right. At the entrance of the left passage was the gold and white jade ring, and on the right was the ordinary ebony hairpin.
There seemed to be no difference between the two passages, but based on her own experience of reading novels and her bad intuition, Shiying believed that the consequences of taking the wrong one were something she could not and did not want to bear.
