Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-01-31

The ancient work is equivalent to the modern forensic doctor, the nature of the work is similar, but the status and treatment are very different.

Most of the work was carried out by untouchables and slaves. The salary for a year is about four or five taels of silver, because his work often deals with dead bodies, so it is considered particularly unlucky, and the descendants of the servants are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. The real work is not as beautiful as it is in the TV series.

He Jiu, the servant in the golden bottle, belongs to this category of personnel, ** died, he took his apprentice to take a look, and issued a death report, which can be regarded as an official. And Ximenqing is a big strong man in Qinghe County, and later once became the director of the public security bureau. That's why he packed a ticket for Pan Jinlian after Wu Dalang's death: "I will pay him He Jiu, he doesn't dare to disobey my words." ”

Besides, He Jiu heard that Wu Dalang, who sold baked cakes, died, and Pan Jinlian asked someone to ask him to take a look and issue a death certificate. He Jiu asked a few apprentices to go first, and walked slowly behind him.

As soon as I walked to the entrance of Zishi Street, I met Ximenqing and shouted: "Lao Jiu** go?".”

He Jiudao: "The villain went to the front to bury the corpse of Wu Dalang." ”

Ximen Qing said: "Let's stop and speak." ”

Saying that, he took him to a small restaurant and entered a private room, and He Jiu followed suspiciously. Ximen Qing said: "Lao Jiu, please sit down." ”

Look at He Jiu again and say: "What kind of person is the villain, dare to sit with the big officials!."”

Ximen Qing said: "Why did Lao Jiu see outside?."Sit, sit, sit, sit. ”

The two of them humbly gave in and sat down. Ximenqing called the waiter again, took a bottle of good Moutai, and then brought a few hard dishes.

He Jiuyi's stomach was worried for some reason, and then he saw Ximenqing take out a piece of ten taels of snowflake silver from his sleeve, put it in front of He Jiu and said, "Don't be too little, Lao Jiu, there will be heavy thanks tomorrow." ”

Ten taels of silver is about 10,000 yuan today, which is about 92 years of salary. He Jiu hurriedly crossed his hands and saluted: "The villain has no effect, **dare to be rewarded by the big officials!."If the big officials have any orders, the villains don't dare to refuse. ”

Ximen Qing said: "Wait a minute, I want to work hard for you, go to the funeral test of Wuda, I hope you will be thoughtful and cover up if you have something." If you don't accept it, you will look down on me. ”

He Jiu had long heard the rumors of Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian, and he didn't dare to refuse at the moment, so he had to accept the silver, drink a few glasses of wine, and leave.

When I saw Pan Jinlian, I thought to myself: No wonder others say that Wu Dalang's wife is beautiful, she really wants to make people commit crimes, Ximenqing's silver is used. After seeing Wu Dalang's corpse, he already understood in his heart that he arranged for his apprentices not to talk nonsense, and he was indiscriminately buried in the coffin and carried out for cremation.

When Wu Song came back from Beijing, he heard that his brother had been killed, and went to look for He Jiu, who heard that Wu Song was coming back and hid early.

During this period, Wu Song went to the Lion Tower to avenge his brother and killed Ximen Qing in vain, but he killed Li Sooli and was sent to Mengzhou, and He Jiu was not mentioned in the article.

It wasn't until a few years later that He Jiu's brother He Shi was arrested on suspicion of stealing, and He Jiuyang's wife came to Ximenqing to dredge up the relationship. Ximenqing was the director of the Public Security Bureau at the time, so he found a reason to release He Shi, which could be regarded as returning He Jiu's favor. He Jiu later bought gifts, cloth, wine and meat to thank him. Look at how Ximen Qing treats him:

Ximen Qing heard the door report that He Jiu was coming to worship, so he invited him in, and when he saw He Jiuyi, he was pulled into the hall. He Jiu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Daddy Duomeng's heavenly heart, the brother of the superborn villain, I am grateful." ”

Ximenqing refused to accept his head, pulled him up and said, "Lao Jiu, you and I are acquaintances, don't do this!.""Let him sit down.

He Jiudao: "The villain is a small person, **dare to sit rudely." ”

Ximenqing saw that he refused to sit, so he stood and ate a cup of tea with him, and said, "Lao Jiu, why do you want to send gifts here?"I won't take it. If someone bullies you, just tell me and I'll be angry for you. ”

He Jiudao: "By the grace of my father, the villain knows." These gifts are just a little bit of my heart, and please don't dislike it. ”

Ximen Qing said: "Okay, since you insist on this, I will accept this wine, and you can take the cloth ruler back, and I will not leave you to sit." ”

He Jiuqian thanked him and left.

This was the last time He Jiu appeared in the Golden Vase Plum. Judging from Ximenqing's attitude towards him, it definitely gave him enough face. It can be seen that Ximenqing is not a domineering person, even if he treats people at the bottom, he is also quite polite and homely, and he is very comfortable with people and things, and he is even more polite than many powerful people.

The characters written in the Golden Bottle Plum are very close to reality, each character has a shining point, there is good in evil, there is evil in good, the people in it seem to live in the middle of you and me, their good is common to us, and their evil is also the desire we have all had, this is human nature, and it is also the charm of this book.

In the four strange books of the Ming Dynasty, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin" and "Journey to the West" are all adapted from folk legends and mythological stories. Although the story of "Golden Vase Plum" comes from the "Wu Song Killing Sister-in-law" fragment in "Water Margin", there are very few parts where the plot intersects with "Water Margin".

Its biggest criticism is that the book has thousands of words, and in the long story of more than one million words, this part of the content is negligible, but if it is completely deleted, it will affect the coherence of the book. Even the content of *** is exquisitely written.

For the tinkling little brother Changzhi Festival, Ximenqing extended a helping hand. Sister Li Gui, the fan who deceived his feelings several times, did not wait for an opportunity to retaliate. On the contrary, when Sister Li Gui was involved in a lawsuit, he also used his power to rescue her.

The Golden Vase is the first realist masterpiece to depict family life. The book "Dream of Red Mansions" that we are familiar with is influenced by "The Golden Plum Bottle", and it can be said that without "The Golden Plum Bottle", there would be no "Dream of Red Mansions". "The Golden Vase of Plums" is about the daily life of the common people in the market, while "Dream of Red Mansions" is about the daily life of an aristocratic family. All dynasties and dynasties have their own history books, but the history books have always only recorded the affairs of the court and the major events in the world, and there are few detailed records of the daily life of the ancients. "The Golden Vase of Plums" opens a door of time and space for us to understand the lives of the people in the Song Dynasty and even the Ming Dynasty.

Mr. Lu Xun wrote in "A Brief History of China": "The author's understanding of the world is extremely insightful. At the same time, there is no above". Zheng Zhenduo said: "If all obscene chapters are removed", "Golden Vase Plum" "is still a first-class **."

Therefore, I recommend the ** "Golden Vase Plum" to readers, and many publishing houses have deleted the ** description, and there is no problem in reading. We can draw some lessons from it, and at the same time, we can recognize the critical significance of **.
