My Neighbor Is Hai Rui

It would be great if I were a flower. I don't have to think about so many things every day. I only need to carry out photosynthesis. The sun comes out, and it rains with the sunshine, accompanying the rain.

Hai Rui married three wives and six concubines in his life, and Yan Song had one wife in his life. Not to mention being poor, just one person in the imperial examination can marry nine wives. Jinshi in the Ming Dynasty had the highest salary in ancient times. Those below the county seat can earn benefits that are thousands of times more than their salary.

I think "sir" is an honorific title, and there is nothing inappropriate. If you read the novels of Ming Dynasty literati, you can basically find examples of officials calling you "sir". The Wanli Version of Jin Ping Mei Ci Hua: It is said that Ximen Qing drank with his uncle that day and went home late at night. The next day, Jingdu Superintendent rode up early in the morning to thank him and said, "I was very happy when I saw the decree came out yesterday. It shows that the old man is so kind and caring, and it is truly an unforgettable bond! Mr. Fan is getting old, and Zhang Juxuan hopes to promote him, but it is still the same. That's all! I owe him more." After saying that, after the tea and soup were changed, Jing Dujian stood up and asked, "When will Mr. Yun invite me to drink?" Ximen Qing said, "I can't invite you for the next two days, just until the end of the month." He walked to the gate, got on his horse and left. I asked Ximen Qing, "Why didn't he come after such a long time?" Ximen Qing said, "I'm also looking forward to him here, I'm just afraid that Mr. Xia from Beijing will keep him as an envoy." He also spent two or three taels of silver with his wife. That week, the guards were willing to let him go. He blocked the door and held a giant cup to persuade him. Ximen Qing said, "My lord, I'd rather have a drink. I still have some small things to do, so I can't indulge as much as I want. Please forgive me!" So he drank it all in one gulp, made a speech, and mounted his horse, heading straight to Li Ping'er's house. Journey to the West Continuation: Sanzang hurriedly got off the Zen bed, greeted each other as guest and host, and exchanged some friendly words. The Si Duanfu looked directly at the traveler, with a look of anger on his face, and asked: "Is this elder a disciple of Tang Shengseng? I'm going to ask you, is the scripture enshrined in this cabinet a fetched scripture?" The traveler said, "Exactly, exactly." The officer said. "What kind of words are there in this sutra?" Said the traveler. "They are all the words of a great man who is loyal to the king and a king who loves his innocent children." The officer laughed and said, "Are there no words to curse people at home?" The traveler said, "Yes, there are." The officer laughed and said, "I heard the Lingshan Sutra. The principle of seeing one's nature and knowing one's mind, transcending the world and becoming a saint, how can such words be included?" The traveler laughed and said, "Your Excellency, I asked my grandson about such words, and my old grandson said that such words were involved." The officer became more and more angry and said, "Yesterday, he came to my door and insulted me. I can't even think of it. Did you learn it from this scripture?" The traveler only listened to this sentence and said: "Sir, no wonder you have an angry look on your face. You must be unhappy in your heart. I accompany my master to bathe, change clothes, and take care of the king. How can I go to your residence? How dare I criticize you for no reason?" The traveler said: "Sir, the young monk has been in the government office for a long time. If he dares to work hard to prepare a meal, even if he sends me out of the hall, it will take a lot of time. Lao Sun wants to check with your young master and ask the monster to seduce him." After saying that, he suddenly somersaulted in the air and disappeared in an instant. The Peony Pavilion: [] Xiaosheng is poor and boring. I heard that the old master is competing for treasures here, and I would like to take a look to open my arms. [Jing Xiaojie] Now that we have found the treasures of Southern scholars, why should we cherish the secrets of Xikun? Please give it a try. [Jing Yinsheng looks at Baojie] [Sheng] Pearls and beautiful jade, Xiaosheng knows them when he sees them. There are several species among them, but what are their names? Please give me your advice one by one. A brief history of the Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of Tianshun, Shi Heng stole power, and disaster was approaching, and there was no way to avoid it. His disciple Xie Zhao imitated the story of Cai Zhaoguishan and taught Wu Yubi, a scholar in Linchuan, to recruit scholars. When Bi arrived, he was treated with great courtesy by the imperial court and the powerful officials were appointed to the temple. All the ministers and officials went to wait for him. When they first met, the officials had no respect for each other, and they both called Bi "sir." When you see powerful people, you are greeted with more than enough courtesy. When you see Jinshi, you are not called a scholar, or you are not sent out. Instead, you receive rich gifts from the middle and high-ranking officials, and you often build a door to thank them. Also, he was a court gentry whose name was Yixi, and he told people: "All the descendants of Fu will see great glory for a while." Those who know it despise it. Officials have no respect or inferiority, and they are both called adults. When you see someone who is important, you are greeted with more than a courtesy. When you see a Jinshi, you are called a scholar or not, or you are not sent out. Let's take a look at the translated meaning: No matter how high or low the position is, as long as he is an official, he will call others "sir."

Life is impetuous, and it is rare to find a novel that can make people calm down and appreciate it.

Autumn rent notes are collected in the same category as civilian rice. Only for the service of Yi Chuan, Guan Tian rice can be exempted from apportionment. Others, such as fishing taxes, are collected from streams and rivers; salt taxes are collected from Dingkou. These are all apportioned to Lijia and are considered formal taxes. Miscellaneous taxes include casting, kiln smelting, government housing, renting land, renting tea, oil taxes, commercial tax deeds, Bengongmomen stall tax deeds, water grinding flour, sugar, wine, vinegar, fish, etc. A tax bureau is established and collected on a quarterly basis. Later, the tax bureau was abolished, and tax banknotes were collected by the county. They were divided into two types: physical banknotes and discounted coins. The following is a summary of the translation. Autumn rent notes and Mintian rice are collected in the same category: This means that the rent notes (a tax in the form of currency) collected in autumn and the grain paid by Mintian are levied according to the same standards. The main holders of private land are ordinary farmers. Only for the service of Yi Chuan, Guantian rice can be exempted from apportionment: Yi Chuan refers to the ancient post station transportation task, which is a kind of labor service. What this means is that the cost of undertaking a service such as Yi Chuan usually needs to be apportioned to everyone, but the rice tax on official fields (land owned by the state) can be exempted from this part of the apportionment. This shows that ordinary people (including those who farm their own land) need to bear the cost of relay transmission. Others, such as fishing lessons, are collected from streams and rivers; salt lessons are collected from Dingkou. These are all allocated to Lijia and belong to the main taxes: Fishery Class: A tax levied on fishing. People living in areas with rivers may need to bear the burden. Salt tax: Salt is a necessity of life. The salt tax is a tax levied on the production or sale of salt. It will eventually be passed on to the people who eat salt, or it will be directly apportioned based on population. Assigned to Lijia: Lijia was the grassroots administrative organizational unit of the Ming Dynasty, responsible for collecting and apportioning taxes. This means that these tax burdens will be decomposed to each Lijia, and eventually shared by all residents of Lijia (mainly ordinary people). Regular taxes: This refers to legal and formal tax items, not additional exorbitant taxes (although they can sometimes be very heavy). Miscellaneous taxes include casting, kiln smelting, government housing, renting land, renting tea, oil taxes, commercial tax deeds, Bengong Momen stall tax deeds, water grinding flour, sugar, wine, vinegar, fish, etc. A tax bureau is established and collected on a quarterly basis. Later, the tax bureau was abolished, and tax banknotes were collected by the county, which were divided into two types: physical banknotes and discounted coins: This series lists various miscellaneous taxes, involving handicrafts (casting, kiln smelting), commerce (leasing tea, commercial tax deeds), daily life (oil, sugar, wine, vinegar, fish), processing (water grinding mill flour), construction (official houses, rented land), etc. Although these taxes have many names, many of them will ultimately fall on those engaged in related activities, or be borne by consumers (including ordinary people) as part of the price of goods. For example, you must pay taxes when buying oil, sugar, wine, vinegar, and fish; you must pay taxes when using a water hammer to grind flour; if you engage in commercial activities, you must submit a business tax deed, etc. The Taxation Bureau is an agency that specializes in managing these miscellaneous taxes. They were later abolished and levied directly by the county, which shows that these taxes do exist and are a regular source of fiscal revenue. They are ultimately borne by all classes of society, especially ordinary people.

My book is also about the Jiajing period. Even the year is similar. 😆

My impression of Hai Rui comes entirely from the Ming Dynasty. He was upright and fearless, knowledgeable about the world but not worldly. I hope the author can use some snacks

Chen is originally from Panyu County, Yazhou, Qiongzhou Prefecture, Guangdong. When Chen was four years old, his father Wang Han unfortunately died young. At that time, my mother, Xie, was only twenty-eight years old. She swore to keep her integrity and worked hard to raise and teach her ministers with the income she earned from needlework and thread. Only then did she become what she is today. The original father only had one son, Chen, and no other brothers. My mother was grateful to her father for having no descendants, and she especially loved her deeply. The minister was elected in the 28th year of Jiajing (1549). In March of the 32nd year (1553), he was awarded the Confucian teaching in Nanping County, Fujian; in May of the 37th year (1558), he was promoted to the magistrate of Chun'an County, Zhejiang; in December of the 41st year (1562), he was transferred to the magistrate of Xingguo County, Jiangxi. He served for a total of eleven years, and his mother was raised by his ministers. The mother treats her ministers, and although they are no longer confused, they still rely on each other day and night, just like a child in swaddling clothes. Later, she became ill due to cold, and her mother was worried that her body would not be able to withstand the cold in the north. Therefore, in October of the forty-third year of Jiajing (1564), when I went to the Hajj and was promoted to head of the Ministry of Household Affairs, my mother cried and I returned to my hometown to recuperate. In October of the forty-fourth year (1565), the minister angered the late emperor because he came to remonstrate with his superiors. My mother cried bitterly when she heard that I was bound to die. Later, the judicial officer proposed the crime and asked the late emperor to approve it, but the late emperor refused to issue it. Then on December 15th, the forty-fifth year (1566), the late emperor restored his official position. This was beyond my expectation and far exceeded my mother's expectations. She thought that I would die, but now I can be resurrected. The kindness of the late emperor was beyond my expectation. I read the imperial edict and felt deeply guilty that I had not been able to achieve more. Now I am assisting His Majesty, offering loyal advice and dedicating myself to repay Your Majesty. This can be regarded as repaying the late Emperor in case something happens. However, I deeply feel that my strength is meager and the results are very little. Your Majesty has just ascended the throne. It is a time when he is working hard to govern and seeking assistance, but I want to ask for resignation. Can this be said? Can you bear to say it? But the situation I encountered was really a last resort. Chen's mother is seventy-eight years old this year, and Chen is fifty-four years old. Based on this calculation, it is just as Li Mi said in "Chen Qing Biao", "The days that I can devote myself to His Majesty are long, but the days of repaying Liu's favor are short." The so-called "long" may be able to make up for it; the so-called "short" means that there is no room for any further delays. Moreover, the Chen family is in Qiongshan County, 9,490 miles away from the capital. There are no brothers in the family who can take care of the mother's illness, and there are no sons below who can share the worries of the mother. There are only two people, mother and son. The mother misses her son and her heart is as far north as the world; the son misses his mother and his heart is as far south as the world. Worry, aging, and disease attack in every possible way. The old man is like a candle in the wind. How can he bear this suffering if he has no energy and blood? The ancestors of our dynasty governed the world with filial piety. The "Da Ming Order" stipulates that if the parents of officials are over seventy years old and they really have no other children, they are allowed to leave their jobs if they voluntarily leave their jobs to support them. I implore the emperor to sympathize with the loneliness of my mother and son, understand the reason why I have to return home today, and order the relevant ministries to release me to my hometown as usual to support my mother. After my mother dies, I will continue to serve in the ministry as usual. Then, my mother, my son, and my son will all be favored by Your Majesty during their lifetime. The deeper my gratitude, the more eager I am to repay you. I am willing to sacrifice my life and myself. My heart is sincere and urgent, and I offend the power of God. I am extremely frightened and trembled. For this reason, I personally carry this copy with me and listen to it carefully, waiting for the edict.

The pace is too slow. Is the protagonist still taking the imperial examination? It took so long to write Novice Village, and it's not about reading.

After finishing this book, let's eat dumplings and glutinous rice balls during the Winter Solstice.
