The Mystery of Hanging Coffin of Rugao Historical Figure Zheng Donghai

The mystery of hanging coffin There is a coffin in the former residence of Zheng family in southwest Baipu. Hanging on the roof beam with iron rope for more than 300 years, it was not buried until after liberation.

Who is in this coffin and why is it hung on the roof beam? This has to start with the legend of Zheng Donghai.

In the early years of Kangxi, Zheng Donghai's family was a big family in Baipu Town, and many relatives were officials in other places, so they were quite influential in the local area.

One day, a Mr Xiang Xiang flattered him that he was from Longxing and would sit in the Golden Dragon Hall in the future. He also said: "You light a seven-star lamp on the cabinet and make a Changxing with the toilet.

Then make a mud dragon in Jiuqu Lane and a dragon forest with porcelain. Find some barefoot beggars to walk on it every day, and drop blood into the dragon's mouth when their feet are cut off.

In this way, after 7749 days, when the time comes, lift the toilet and let Long Xing go to heaven with the mud dragon, so that he can ascend to the throne of the dragon. Zheng Donghai was overjoyed and did as the fortune teller said, and set up a real temple to be his Golden Dragon Hall. In addition, a building similar to the city wall was built in the town, named "Nanque Gate", "Beique Gate" and "Bixia Palace".

I don't know. On the 45th day, Zheng Donghai's uncle came and saw a toilet in the niche on the cupboard. He thought it had fallen from the shelf of a big house, so he knocked it over with a cane.

The oil lamp went out at once, and Long Xing went to heaven, revealing the secret of Zheng Donghai.

When the emperor heard that Nanxing had changed, he sent an imperial envoy to Baipu for a private visit, but there was no reply last year.

The emperor also sent imperial envoys to Baipu, pretending to be spies from the East and the West. But Zheng Donghai caught him, took him to torture him, and put him in the water dungeon by the pond of Xuelian.

The imperial envoy was immersed in the water for several days, and he was cold and hungry. It was really hard.

On this day, he moved in the water and stepped on a hard block. When he touched it, it turned out to be a gold seal, exactly like his own. Only then did he know that the first imperial envoy had been killed by Zheng Donghai.

Afraid of the same fate, he tried to escape.

Late at night, a maid passed by the back garden and sang a little song to cheer herself up.

When an imperial envoy heard the voice, he called for help, took the maid to the dungeon and declared himself an official of the imperial court. As long as you can get him out, you will be rewarded in the future.

The maid was persuaded, so she stole the key to open the dungeon and let the imperial envoy escape from the jaws of death.

An imperial envoy fled to Tongzhou overnight and asked the magistrate to send thousands of elite soldiers to surround Baipu Town.

When Zheng Donghai saw the tide ebbing, he wanted to escape from the air.

He has a unique skill. With two baskets in his hand, he can fly like wings.

Just as he left the ground, his grandson grabbed his leg and flew into the air with him.

Gail Zheng Donghai was very unhappy. He was shot in the arm with an arrow by officers and men, and the basket fell as soon as it loosened.

Zheng Donghai fell into the hands of officers and soldiers, was tied to Maweiba, dragged to Tongzhou, and died halfway.

Because he was born in Longxing and buried in the mud, he would be reborn to rebel, so although the court allowed the Zheng family to accept the body, he still wanted to hang the coffin on the beam.

In fact, the idea of killing Longxing is far-fetched, and the real purpose of the government hanging coffins is to make an example for others.

It turns out that as early as the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zheng Donghai was influenced by the Lindong Fu Society, and later he developed the idea of anti-Qing and regaining sight, and even secretly planned to establish anti-Qing armed forces.

Because of his family's influence, local officials have no choice but to report to their superiors.

At that time, the Qing court used both hard and soft skills to the Han literati, and used high officials and generous salaries to buy them off.

Because Zheng Donghai didn't buy it, and even detained the lobbyist sent by the Qing court, the Qing court became angry from embarrassment, ordered him to be executed, and hung a coffin to warn other anti-Qing people.

In the mid-Qing Dynasty, someone compiled the opera "Double Seal" and wrote Zheng Donghai as an anti-thief. In fact, it slandered Zheng Donghai, so this play has never been performed in Baipu area.

Shen Qi is educated. In the Qing Dynasty, Shen Qi, a talented Baipu scholar, went to Beijing to take the exam and was summoned by his master.

The master praised his handwriting, and then said, "However, your handwriting is not serious enough." Shen Qi was dissatisfied and asked, "How can I tell?" For example, if you write the word "circle" on the "shell" and write the word "mouth" as ",it is a mistake." Shen Qi listened indifferently, thinking: I wrote a running script, so it's not surprising that I can't distinguish between "mouth" and "mouth"! He said: "Master, according to the students,' mouth and mouth' are the same!" When the master saw that he didn't agree, he frowned and said, "Well, do the words' mouth' and' mouth' have the same meaning as' private',' harmony',' Taiwan',' land',' auspicious',' hook' and' sentence'?" "ah? ! "Shen Qi suddenly froze.

Needless to say, if "mouth" and "mouth" are indistinguishable, "private" and "harmony", "Taiwan" and "Lu", "Ji" and "line" and "hook" and "sentence" will also be indistinguishable.

So Shen Qi blushed and admitted his mistake, and respectfully accepted the teacher's instruction.

From then on, he studied harder, never dared to be self-righteous, finally gained profound knowledge, and finally became the teacher of Emperor Qianlong.
