The legend of Bao Gong

Bao Gong, whose name is Xiren, was born in Hefei in the Song Dynasty, Bao Zheng. He used to be an official in Kaifeng, and was a famous minister in Song Dynasty. He is impartial and impartial, and won the hearts of the people.

Broken eggs

Legend has it that Bao Zheng became the Kaifeng magistrate at the age of thirty. At that time, he was already a wise and honest official, blowing his horn through the window lattice-the noise was outside! It was the contemporary master Wang Yanling who recommended him to be a master in Beijing. This man is a veteran of the three dynasties, with a waist-deep white beard and thinking about state affairs day and night. Bao Zheng was recommended by him, but he didn't know much about Bao Zheng's personality and intelligence. He always wanted me to try Bao Zheng's talent.

Early this morning, the old teacher just got up and finished washing, and asked the servant to bring breakfast and three spiced eggs. He had just eaten an egg when his family told him, "Bao Zheng, the new magistrate, has come to pay his respects."

Hearing this, Wang Yanling was shocked and ordered, "Please come quickly." A brain turned away: "Why don't I take this opportunity to try him face to face?"

How to try? Wang Yanling picked up chopsticks and was about to pick up the second egg when the idea came. He quickly put down his chopsticks, put the egg bowl on the table and said to the maid; Qiu Ju, can you do something for me?

Qiu Ju said, "Old Master Q, just say it."

Wang Yanling pointed to the spiced eggs on the table and said, "Qiu Ju, you ate these two spiced eggs. If someone asks, no matter how you coax, threaten or bake, don't say you ate it. I am responsible for everything, and I will repay you afterwards. "

Qiu Ju listened to one leng, but the old surname's orders did not dare to refuse, so she had to eat.

Wang Yanling saw that she had eaten, so she went out of the inner room and came to the nave. After seeing Bao Zheng, she exchanged a few commonplaces and said; "A disgraceful thing just happened, and I want to ask Mr. Bao to help me deal with it."

Bao Zheng said, "Your Majesty, you're welcome. Just give me an order and I will do it. "

"That's good."

Wang Yanling got up and led Bao Zheng to the inner room, pointing to the empty bowl and saying, "I eat three spiced eggs every morning. Today, I just ate one. I went to the toilet because I had a stomachache. When I came back, the remaining two eggs were gone. Although this matter is small, how can Taishi Gongfu tolerate such a person with dirty hands and feet? "

Bao Zheng nodded and asked, "How long?"

"Not long. First and last half meals. "

"During this time, are there any outsiders at home?"

"No."

"Has the master asked everyone in the family?"

"Yes, they all saidno. Do you think it's strange?"

Bao Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Master, as long as I can trust you, I will make a decision immediately."

Wang Yanling arched his hands and said, "It's up to you."

"Master: Forgive me for taking the liberty!"

"You're welcome."

Bao Zheng picked up the stones, walked out of the inner room and came to nave. He said: "Now the people in Taishifu are all gathered and standing in a carriage."

As the saying goes, "the prime minister has four officials." Although these families stood aside, they didn't take the new prefect seriously.

When Bao Zheng saw the fire, he clapped his hands on the table and shouted, "The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the people. I'm here to handle a case today, so you should slow down so as not to suffer. Who stole the master's spiced eggs? Tell me quickly. "

All a surprised, suddenly, honest. But Bao Zheng asked three times in a row, and these families were as silent as stakes. Qiu Ju stood there casually. Wang Yanling opened his eyes wide and pretended to be anxious to know about it. Seeing that everyone was silent, he thought, "Bao Zheng, Bao Zheng, this is enough for you to drink a pot. Is it necessary to be punished like an ordinary official next? " Even if you find a prisoner under a stick, you are not smart. "Thought of here, he deliberately said:" Bao's adult, as the saying goes, meat is afraid of dross, and people are afraid of being beaten. Since they don't say anything, you can use punishment! "

Bao Zheng waved his hand and said, "No." He turned to the crowd, sneered twice and said, "If you don't admit the egg thief, I have my own way. Somebody, bring me a bowl of water and an empty plate. "

"yes." The waiter promised to do it.

Wang Yanling was very happy to see this, and Bao Zheng really lived up to his reputation. You can use your head when trying a case, but you can't retract your confession.

Master Wang was thinking about it when the waiter brought a bowl of water and a plate. Bao Zheng's entourage put the plate in the middle of the room. Then he said, "Everyone should drink water, rinse it in his mouth, and then spit it on the plate. Don't swallow the water."

The first person drinks saliva, gargles and spits on the plate. Bao Zheng glanced at the water on the plate. Without saying anything, he asked the second man to spit it on the plate. Bao Zheng looked at it again, but there was no reply. It's Qiu Ju's turn to be the third person. She refused to drink water and gargle. Bao Zheng left her seat, pointed at her and said, "Hey, you stole the egg."

Qiu Ju suddenly blushed to the neck stalk and bowed her head and rubbed her skirts. Wang Yanling said quickly, "Master Bao, you conclude that she stole food. What is the reason? "

Bao Zheng said, "Master, I just ate an egg, and there must be yolk residue between my teeth. I asked him to rinse his mouth with clear water before spitting it out, and we will judge whether there is egg yolk foam in the spit water. She is afraid of drinking clean water to rinse her mouth. Who is she? "

A surname said, nodded and said yes. Thought, this Bao Zheng really has a set. But he said, "Lord Bao, this matter is clear. Forget it, let them go! "

Bao Zheng shook his head and said, "Impossible. When the case arrived, only the head was clear and the tail was confiscated. "

"What do you mean?"

Bao Zheng said seriously: "Qiu Ju is just playing tricks on people, and the principal offender is not her."

Wang Yanling was surprised that Bao Zheng was so young, so considerate and so capable. Just try it and say, "Mrs. Bao, so she was ordered to eat eggs." Who is this person? "

Bao Zheng said seriously: "This person is too-teacher-you."

"ah!"

Wang Yanling smiled and nodded again and again. He turned to the crowd and said, "This is exactly what I want Qiu Ju to do. Let's see how Master Bao can settle this case. Master Bao knows everything, and only when he has it can he be considered wise. Go back and do your own thing. "

At this time, Qiu Ju had a smile on her face and dispersed with everyone.

After the people left, Wang Yanling asked, "Mr. Bao, what makes you think I ordered Qiu Ju?"

Bao Zheng said, "Qiu Ju is a big girl, and she knows the truth. There is no need to get into trouble for two eggs. This is a ... Second, when I learned that she had eaten eggs, she felt ashamed and wronged; Third, this article is also the most important. In front of everyone in the whole house, she was publicly told that she was stealing food. If this matter is not clarified, Qiu Ju will not be able to live a quiet life and will commit suicide because of shame. Although the master is joking, try my intelligence. If I don't handle it carefully, wouldn't it kill me? "

In a word, Master Wang nodded again and again and said admiringly, "Lord Bao, I am relieved to have you sitting in Kaifeng House?"

Su Hua finishing

Master Xuan

After Bao Gong became the magistrate of Kaifeng, he decided to choose a famous teacher in order to better realize his ideal. What is touting? It is a person who helps with paperwork in the office.

As soon as Bao Gong's notice of selecting a master was posted, scholars from all over the capital of song dynasty came to take the exam. Thousands of people came in just three or four days. The first item in the exam is to write a short essay, which Bao Gong gave to the candidates. Bao Gong personally reviewed thousands of papers and selected ten people with the most literary talent. The second item in the exam is the interview. Bao Gong wants to call these ten people in one by one, ask some questions casually and answer them face to face.

The first person was called in. This man is respectful to Bao Gong, for fear of making a little mistake, and he was not selected. Before entering the door, he bowed to Bao Gong. When he entered the door, he knocked on his head step by step until he came to Bao Gong. He said, "I am listening to your master's instructions." Bao Gong said; "This is not a commandment. Since you have come to our office to take the exam, please get up and sit down and chat. " The man said, "I dare not." Bao Gong said, "Hey! When I tell you to get up, get up. " The man said, "I'd better listen to the master's instructions on my knees." Seeing him like this, Bao Gong no longer reluctantly said, "The article you wrote is very good. I want to talk to you today, sir. " The man said, "Please ask the master to give a question." Bao Gong pointed to his face and said, "What do you think I look like?" The humanitarian said, "I dare not be presumptuous." Bao Gong said, "This is an exam, and you are not guilty." The man looked up at Bao Gong's face. Oh, it's really ugly. His head and face are as black as smoke. At first glance, it looks like a black jar on his shoulder. Two big round eyes, staring up, white eyes are more black and few eyes are scary. The man was surprised. I didn't expect the bag to be so ugly. He thought: If I tell him what he looks like, he will fly into a rage, not to mention being a teacher and not getting shot in the head. Officials love to hear compliments. Why don't I flatter him and please him? So he smiled and said, "Ah, the master is really beautiful! Thick ears, rosy and moist face, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, special spirit. What a blessed face! " Hearing this, Bao Gong looked at him and waved and said, "Well, go home."

Then the second man was called in. Bao Gong took a look. This man has a long face, a white face and two big eyes that turn around without looking at people. When Bao Gong was interviewed with his face again, he stole a look at Bao Gong and took a deep breath. Bao Gong asked him to answer casually. He rolled his eyes a few times and said with a smile, "Oh, my Lord is really an honest official!" " Bao Gong asked, "How do you know?" He said: "I think the master looks like a star, his eyebrows are like a crescent moon, and his face is white and red." It is purely a deputy ministerial official! " When Bao Gong heard this, he was angry and funny. He said from the heart: Do as you say, my ugly face is probably a good official. That's bullshit! So, impatiently waved to the man.

When Bao Gong finished interviewing the ninth person, Bao Xing, an old family member, came in and asked, "Sir, are you satisfied?" Bao Gong shook his head, sighed and said, "I haven't chosen one yet. In order to please me, these people actually turned black and white and talked nonsense. If they all flatter and lie like this, who will work for the people? " Bao Xing said; "Loyalty is hard to find, so you will have to choose one." Bao Gong said, "No way. If Kaifeng can't choose a willing heart, I'd rather work harder than make do with it. Call the last one in! "

The tenth man came in. I saw him calmly coming to Bao Gong and saluting: "I have seen Master." Bao Gong said; "Free of charge, sit down!" The man sat down. Bao Gong said, "Your article is well written!" The man said, "Sir, no matter how well the article is done, it's just an armchair strategist, and it's not worth much money. In my humble opinion, to serve the country and do good things for the people, we must be virtuous first and talented second. " Hearing this, Bao Gong secretly promised and said; "Sir, I have a face-to-face interview today. You should answer at once. " Humanity: "Please ask the master to give a question." Bao Gong said, "Other topics are meaningless. Let me start with my face. What do you think of my appearance? " The man looked at Bao Gong and said, "What does the master look like?" "What is it like?" "Face like a black altar, face like the bottom of a pot. It should be said that it is ugly. " Hearing this, Bao Gong deliberately sank his face. "well! How dare you say that about your master? Aren't you afraid that I will blame you? " The man said, "Don't be angry, sir. Master's face is black. Does it turn white when I say "white"? The host is ugly, can I say' beauty' becomes beautiful? If your master doesn't like to hear the truth, how can he judge the case impartially and be an honest official in the future? " Bao Gong said, "I have heard that if you are ugly, your heart will become treacherous. Is this true? " The man said, "Otherwise. The traitor is not in his heart but in his appearance. As long as there is loyalty to the monarch and the desire to serve the country, no matter how black it is, it is also an honest official; On the contrary, no matter how white you look, you can't help becoming a corrupt official. Haven't you seen a white-faced traitor? "

Bao Gong was overjoyed and said, "You have been chosen."

Solving the case is great

According to legend, Bao Gong took Baoxing and made a private visit incognito. On this day, I came to a place and saw that it was getting late. I decided to find someone to stay.

Walking along the street, they saw an old man lying on the stone steps in front of them crying. Bao Gong hurried forward and asked, "Excuse me, grandpa, why are you sad?" The old man looked up at Bao Gong and didn't speak, just shed tears. Bao Gong is not convenient to ask more questions, so he offered to spend the night here. Hearing this, the old man shook his hand again and again: "No, no! Honestly, just a few days ago, someone died here. " Bao Gong died when he heard about it. He asked who the deceased was. Why did you die? This question is irrelevant, but it leads to a strange case.

It turned out that the old man surnamed Xu, a couple, had only one son under his knee, eighteen years old. Not long ago, the old couple married their son. The bride is clever and wise, and the whole family is satisfied.

On their wedding night, the bride heard that her husband was preparing for the entrance exam, so she gave him a joint exam. This is a pair of serials: "Light a lamp and go to the cupboard to attack each book." The bride jokingly said, "You are not allowed to enter the bridal chamber until you get the second couplet." It happened that the groom was too bookish to answer at the moment and went to school in a fit of pique.

The next day, the bride found her husband very sad and asked why. The groom said; "I'm worried that I can't pick up your couplets!" The bride said, "You didn't do it right last night?" The groom feels very strange; "I slept at school last night and didn't go home. How can I answer couplets? " The bride was shocked when she heard this, only then did she know that she had lost her virginity last night and was full of regrets. In a rage, she hanged herself.

As soon as the human life case was reported, the yamen came at once and arrested the groom. The weak scholar could not resist the torture of the confused official, was forced to confess, was sentenced to death, and pleaded guilty after the autumn. Mrs SEO heard the news and threw herself into the river. A living family, ruined, very sad.

When Bao Gong heard the old man telling the story, he was also very sad. Who caused the bride's abnormal death? If you want to solve the case, you must first find this pair.

That night, Bao Gong lived in the old man's house. Late at night, he is still thinking hard about the next script. He wandered alone in the backyard for a while. Suoxing asked Baoxing to move a plush chair, lean under the buttonwood and think about the moon. Thinking about it, Bao Gong couldn't help laughing. It turns out that this bottom line is "moving chairs and enjoying the moon together." When the association comes out, there is a way to solve the case.

After dawn, Bao Gong came to the county government and posted a list, which said that he would select some talented people in the local area and take them to Beijing to be an official. The condition is that it can be linked to the bottom line of "attacking books with bright cabinets"

Shortly after the list was published, a scholar unveiled it. He proudly came to see Bao Gong and said, "The bookworm read the list and wanted to go to Beijing with adults, but he still hoped that adults would cultivate more." Bao Gong said; "Have you read that couplet?" The scholar pretended to think for a while and said, "This is the second couplet. The first couplet should be' Move your chair and lean on the tung, and enjoy the moon together'. I wonder if adults will take students to Beijing? " Bao Gong hey hey a sneer. "Ok, I'll take you to Beijing!" As he spoke, the gavel struck: "Don't do it for me!" Gather around and tie up the scholars.

The scholar dreams of being an official and doesn't want to be caught red-handed. He was so scared that he even cried injustice. Bao Gong snapped, "gangster, you have bad intentions. You raped your wife at night and killed two people. How can you be spared? " Left and right, slap the punishment! "Hearing this, the scholar was terrified out of her wits and quickly knelt down and shouted," I am willing to confess! " "

It turned out that after the groom ran to school in anger that day, several classmates made fun of him, saying that he had no bride as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade when he came to the school vigil, and the groom told him about the couplets. Who knows, the speaker has no intention, and the listener has intention. The scholar took the opportunity to sneak into the groom's house to pick up couplets. The bride went into the bridal chamber with him without distinguishing the true from the false, which led to this tragedy.

Tell the scholar to confess in class, put him on death row, and call an old man Xu to take his son home. Bao Gong cleverly discovered an unjust case.

Tao Jinsheng collects and arranges.

Sister-in-law is like a mother.

In Hefei, respect for sister-in-law is more important than respect for sister-in-law. If I neglect my sister, you can forgive me. If you neglect your sister-in-law, it will stir up a hornet's nest. You can't stop there. People often say, "Sister-in-law is like a mother." Old people with white beards and children wearing open-backed pants all know that this is because of the official Bao Gong.

It was the Song Dynasty, and there was an official in Luzhou, Bao Zheng. This year, Bao Zheng went to Chisang Town. Wow, in Chisang Town, Bao Zheng encountered a "hand biting" incident: a white-haired old woman cried and ran to the yamen, suing Bao Zheng's nephew Bao Mian, killing her son, killing her grandson, raping her daughter-in-law and causing death. Bao Zheng approved the case and issued an arrest warrant for the murderer for several days. Bao Zheng for this matter, eat not sweet, sleep instability, appear darker and thinner.

On this day, Bao Zheng sat in the official office, still unable to find out the murderer. After leaving my office, he went home with a sad face. His wife, Li Fu, came up with a rattle in her hand and said seriously:

"xianggong", this thing was turned out when clearing things, and it broke down over time. Why do you want this thing? It still takes up a lot of space. I think it is better to throw it away! "

Bao Zheng took the rattle from her husband and solemnly said:

"This, this line!"

After that, I looked at the rattle, so focused, as if I were looking at a rare treasure. Why does Bao Zheng love this toy so much? The following is the story of Bao Zheng's childhood.

It turns out that Bao Zheng is the son of Lao Han (the youngest child). His mother was old when he was born, and he was old and weak. In addition, he catches cold after delivery and is prone to illness. He died before the full moon in Bao Zheng. Sister-in-law loved her brother-in-law who lost his mother before the full moon, so she took Bao Zheng back to her room and raised him in the cradle of her youngest son Bao Zheng's nephew Bao Mian. Sister-in-law is kind and simple. Breast milk is made in her brother-in-law, and the rest is her son's. One person's milk and two people's dishes are naturally not enough. "There is not enough milk, and porridge should be made up." Bao Mian grew up eating rice porridge.

When Bao Zheng was two years old, his brother bought a rattle from the collection for Bao Mian to play with. Children like novelty. When Bao Zheng saw it, he would; If Bao Mian doesn't give it, Bao Zheng cries for it. Seeing this situation, my sister-in-law blames her husband for not having one, and the distribution is uneven. At the same time, she took the rattle from Bao Mian and gave it to Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng stopped crying, but her own son kept crying. A look, just know just now because of too hard, rattle contemptuously to Bao Mian's tender hand, blood paste soaked. Grandfather felt sorry for his grandson and wanted to take the rattle away from the old man's son, but his sister-in-law stopped him.

"Dad, no mother uncle is poor. Bao Mian, what's the point of crying twice? Old people often say:' Gourd hangs big, children cry big'. If anything happens to me, I am still young and strong! "

Sister-in-law's words made my father-in-law speechless, so she didn't get the rattle back from Bao Zheng. Sister-in-law turned and grabbed a handful of ashes from the incense burner on the case and twisted it on Bao Mian's wound to stop bleeding. From then on, Bao Mian left an obvious scar on his hand. Until Bao Zheng was ten years old, before his father died, he gave him a rattle and told it three times for Bao Zheng to remember. He closed his eyes safely. Since then, Bao Zheng has been carrying a rattle.

Li Furen looked at Bao Zheng as emotional as a rattle, and further said:

Xianggong, this thing is broken and old. It is neither gold nor silver. Really don't leave a head. "

"Bah!" Bao Zheng was angry and said, "Honey, your horse doesn't know its face. How could you forget? From the day you walked in the door, I told you more than once about my sister-in-law's selfless heart and her golden advice. My sister-in-law gave me this rattle. Worth more than gold and silver! "

Li Furen didn't forget it, but deliberately reminded Bao Zheng about it. It turned out that Bao Mian knew that he had been sued outside, and Bao Zheng approved it. Uncle has always been impartial. He was afraid, so he hid beside menstruation and begged menstruation to intercede for him. Li Furen naturally agreed. However, she was familiar with Bao Zheng's straightforward personality and was afraid of being unkind at the moment, so she tried to impress Bao Zheng.

At this moment, she touched a door and said:

"all right! I'll collect the rattle! " "xianggong"-"

Bao Zheng impatient and said:

"Madam, just say what you have to say!"

""xianggong ",sister-in-law only Bao Mian this blood, read the grace of sister-in-law, forgive Bao Mian! Let him turn over a new leaf and serve the nephew in his later years. "

"ah!"

Bao Zheng was surprised and realized that the accident was at home. Lee took out his rattle and pleaded with Bao Mian, but Bao Mian failed to catch it. That's "ghosts at home." How can this work? Can you break the national law by shielding your own flesh and blood? Originally, Bao Zheng wanted to get angry, but he thought it would make things more troublesome. At this time, there came another sentence, "The old duck floats-its face does not move", saying:

"This ... this ... this matter, let's talk about it later!"

Li Furen thought that Bao Zheng was emotional, and he was a little relieved to worry about Bao Mian.

In the afternoon, Bao Zheng took Li Furen to the official hall. Let the dynasty and Mahan invite the white-haired aunt to class. Bao Zheng said:

"What's your name, old man, what's your grievance? Say it, I will make a decision with you. "

The white-haired woman endured the grief and said:

"My name is Xiao Liu, from Chisang Town. Bao Mian killed my family of three because they raped my daughter-in-law. Please make a decision for me. "

"Xiao Liu, you can see clearly, isn't that bad guy pretending to be Bao Mian?"

"Adult, and villains crime, I was there. I heard him say with my own ears,' I'm Bao Gong's nephew, and I can't solve my grievances.' When he killed my son, I saw with my own eyes a big and thick scar on his left hand. Even my two-year-old grandson, crying for his mother, never let go. He grabbed the rattle in Xiao Nen's hand with his scarred left hand, grabbed it with his right hand and fell to the ground. The daughter-in-law was robbed, refused to accept, and was also killed. Oh, my God! "

Li Fu turned blue with anger; Bao Zheng listened, his heart ached. But he deliberately said:

"Liu, Bao Mian is my nephew. Please forgive me. I will give you three hundred and twenty pieces of silver to arrange your old age. "

Like a bolt from the blue, shaw eyes with tears, eyes wide open, nu way:

"Bah! I don't want your stinking money, and you don't have to worry about my lonely old woman. As the saying goes:' Don't complain even if you die', it turns out that you are also an official who cares about your loved ones, and your honest official has a good reputation! "

Bao Zheng is not angry, turn to Li Furen said;

"Honey, what do you think of this?"

Li Furen bite a tooth and said:

""xianggong ",you do it according to the national law! Bao Mian is hiding in my back garden. "

Bang. Bao patted the gavel and cried;

"Catch the murderer!"

"Hey!"

Voice down, Bao Mian was taken to the lobby. How can it be fast? It turned out that Bao Zheng took Li Furen to the street and ordered Zhang Long and Zhao Hu to search their homes. Without Li Furen's stop, Bao Mian was naturally arrested. Bao Zheng's strategy is well used! Li Furen figured it out and naturally handed over the murderer; Li Furen think impassability, also according to catch the murderer.

Bao Mian district in class, xiao liu call way:

"It's the thief, my Lord. You and I are in charge of revenge for my daughter-in-law. "

Bao Mian knew something was wrong and cried and said to Li Furen:

"Aunt, you promised to make love for my nephew; Aunt, tell your uncle quickly! "

Burying his face in Li Furen, cried and said:

"Bao Mian, your sin is too heavy, your aunt can't save you! Don't blame your aunt, she has prepared paper money for you. "

Thieves in Bao Mian also have the wisdom of thieves. Seeing that begging Li Furen was no good, they stretched out their scarred hands and just shook them, trying to impress Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng see beard shaking, resolutely take out the word "chop", said:

"Bao Mian, your mother left you a" selfless "hand, how do you use this hand to do evil! The national law is ruthless. Only by beheading you can you be worthy of your selfless nephew. "

With that, he threw the pen away and ordered the execution.

"Hey!"

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu pushed Bao Mian out of the hall.

Bao Zheng said to Liu:

"Liu, beheaded Bao Mian, avenged the tragic death of your son's daughter-in-law. It's just that people can't be resurrected after death. This official thinks you are lonely and lifeless. I will still give you 320 yuan to arrange your old age! "

"Lord Xie Bao."

After a while, Bao Mian was beheaded, and Zhang Long and Zhao Hu presented a bloody head. Bao Zheng, a look, changed the old rigid temper, burst into tears, tears like broken beads. Li Furen was still sobbing. He stopped his sadness and said:

Xianggong, Bao Mian has taught the law. Why are you crying? "

Old Bao said:

"Bao Mian is the orthodox religion, and he deserves it. Sorry sister-in-law when crying! My sister-in-law not only gave me milk, but also gave me a selfless heart. I only know how to repay my sister-in-law's kindness and love my nephew blindly, but I didn't educate my nephew well, which made him commit a great crime. I am sorry for my sister-in-law! "

Said, and cried again; The more you cry, the sadder you get. Li Furen had to persuade:

""xianggong ",you should put your body first. Sister-in-law knows the important principle well and won't blame you. Think more about my sister-in-law's old age. It's hard enough to be alone. "

Bao Zheng stopped crying and said:

"Ah, that you put your heart in the belly. I've thought about it. Sister-in-law, I will prepare. You must remember' long sister-in-law looks like mother' and' respect sister-in-law looks like mother' in the future. "

"Yes!"

Since then, the word "eldest sister-in-law is like a mother" has spread to this day.

Chen collects and arranges.

But Bao Gong knows.

Bao Gong is a fair and honest official. It is true that the prince has broken the law with the people. That year, Lao Bao married Chen Shimei, a Xu who disowned his ex-wife. The emperor held a grudge and borrowed a reason to dismiss Bao Gong. So the emperor still feels wronged. On the same day, the emperor called the big eunuch and the little eunuch to the palace, whispering and planning for a while. The last two eunuchs told this to the emperor, made him nod and smile, and told him to do it, which greatly rewarded him.

Bao Gong was cut off, and all the big shops in Beijing received instructions from the royal family not to let Bao Gong spend the night. Bao Gong had to pack up and go home that day. Bao Gong is an honest official, but now he is so clean that he can't afford to hire horses and chariots. The servant Bao Xing walked behind with his luggage. But I didn't expect the eunuch to follow.

It was a summer day in June. As soon as Bao Gong left Beijing, he didn't walk far on the road, and he was sweating like a pig. After walking for a long time, I broke out in buckets of sweat. At the moment, when I came to the foot of the mountain, Bao Gong was hot and thirsty. However, there are no shops, ponds or wells in front of Buba village, only a piece of Gua Tian. Yellow flowers are blooming on the lush vines, and watermelons are round. Bao Gong smacked his lips and there was no one around. In order to quench his thirst, he picked a watermelon, put it on his knee, broke it open with his fist and ate it with his family. They ate two big melons in one breath. Two eunuchs like ghosts have seen it in their eyes. The big eunuch said to the little eunuch:

"In ancient times, the gentleman said,' Gua Tian didn't accept shoes, and Li didn't get the full crown', and the old bag was full of melons. Can you be an official? Take him to the emperor. "

Just about to do it. But I saw Bao Gong take out some copper coins, put them on the vine and wiped his mouth. Two eunuchs gave helplessly:

"There is nothing to say about eating melons and giving money."

In the evening, Bao Gong stayed in a small hotel in the town and two eunuchs followed him. Bao Gong didn't have much money, so he ordered Sulai rice. I didn't know this inn was small, the food was not clean, and the bowl was full of rice, so Bao Gong had to pick it while eating, and the table was full of whole grains. This let two eunuchs see in the eye, and the little eunuch greatly urged:

"If the grain is destroyed and people die, it will be thundered by the sky, and he will be arrested and brought to justice, so that he can vent his anger on the emperor."

Just then, Bao Gong grabbed the grain, put it in his mouth one by one, and ate all the rice husk. It was really "a meal on the plate, and not a grain was wasted". What's there to say? The big eunuch and the little eunuch had to stare at each other.

Walking, when I came to Huaihe River, I saw Bao Gong on his way home. The two eunuchs didn't catch the handle of Bao Gong. How could they make a job with the emperor? Then, they discussed a plan: eunuchs and eunuchs rushed to Baogong from the path overnight and waited by the Huaihe River. When Bao Gong arrived, one of them pulled his leg and the other pushed his back, pushing him onto a pile of dirty things. They thought that Bao guild would go to Huaihe River to wash their hands. If someone washes rice and vegetables in the Huaihe River, they will be accused of polluting the river. This is really a bad idea.

I didn't know that Bao Gong stood up with a sigh after his hands were dirty. He wants to take a bath in the river. As soon as he saw it, the little girl and daughter by the river were washing rice, washing vegetables and carrying water. He was dazed, thinking, didn't this hand washing spoil people's drinking water? So, Bao Gong went to the river, scooped up water with his clean left hand and put it in his mouth, then left the water's edge and spat water on the slope for washing. Two eunuchs watched, but there was nothing they could do. I think Bao is really an honest official in a Chinese Odyssey. If I go on, I won't find his problem. I had to go back to the emperor's life in frustration.

When this thing came out, the people said:

Poison is no match for the emperor,

You can't rape eunuchs,

But Bao Gong knows.
