Untimely

Fortunately, Zheng Fengshi met the lucky man Zheng Fengshi. In an era when weak kings were in power and evil deeds were everywhere, the number one scholar, who was a master of calligraphy and painting and full of ideas for governing the country, had nowhere to put his ambitions into practice. Reminiscing about the year of Xixi, the rich and handsome number one scholar traveled to the capital, enjoying a reputation of flowers all the way. From the common people to the officials in the court, he was highly optimistic about him. Even the Prime Minister Xie Jing praised him: "Elegance and beauty are unparalleled in the world." When the late emperor was in power, he wore a red robe and official hat, brocade clothes and jade belt, and went to the emperor with a youthful spirit and ambition. There is no doubt that he has been reused. Zheng Fengshi advocated reform and prayed for the people. The emperor once ordered him to repair books in the library. Others said it was a meaningless task. The white-haired emperor, stroking his beard, asked him: "Zheng Fengshi, are you willing to go and repair books?" The young man was dressed in boneless clothes and stood upright in a red robe. His white jade-like face revealed the maturity of a young man: "Back to the official house, I will fulfill my mission." The emperor did not understand why he was really willing to go. After leaving the letter, Zheng Fengshi replied: "I will repair the ancient books, and culture will spread to every inch of soil in the Song Dynasty. All the people of the Song Dynasty can have a glimpse of the ancient book culture, which is a great blessing for education. Isn't the official's great wish that every person in the Song Dynasty has books to read and can get the nourishment of education." The emperor's hand covered with grooves paused: "Zheng Qing is the humeral minister of the imperial court." At this time, the new king listened to the villain's slander and threw him into a prison. Zheng Fengshi was wearing a tattered prison uniform, and his body was covered with blood marks from whips. Some of his flesh and blood were protruding, which was too horrific to look at. Even though he was in this situation, he still sat on the haystack and refused to surrender to the royal power. The jailer guarding the door said disdainfully: "So what if you are proud? So what if you are full of knowledge? Now that the late emperor has passed away, Zheng Fengshi has long since lost his backer." The sarcasm and ridicule in his ears amplified infinitely, but Zheng Fengshi remained calm and composed. A glass of poisonous wine was brought up, and the man dressed as an eunuch smiled: "Taifu Zheng, it's time to go on your way." Seeing that he didn't make any move, the eunuch snorted coldly: "This is the dove poison given to you by the officials. The officials are kind, even if Taifu Zheng is disloyal to the officials, he still May Paul's body be intact." After saying this, Zheng Fengshi stood up staggeringly and smiled bitterly: "It turns out that I am born at the wrong time." The poisonous wine slipped into his throat, and all his half-life's fame and fortune and his unfulfilled wishes disappeared at this moment. It's a pity that he can no longer see that smile in the season when plum blossoms bloom quietly. The emperor will not pity the death of the famous Zheng Fengshi, but the people who have received Zheng Fengshi's kindness will. All the people who had denounced Zheng Fengshi were ordered to be killed, and the capital was stained red with blood. When the news reached Zhulin, Xie Jing, who had retired and returned to his hometown, only left one sentence: "The Song Dynasty lost Zheng Fengshi. It is the Zhao family's misfortune." Intention: Born at the wrong time
