Yansong Fortune Telling _ How about Yansong Fortune Telling?

How did a group of hutongs scare away Yan Song?

Speaking of Yan Song, the great traitor of the Ming Dynasty, everyone didn't know that he was a villain with sores on his head and pus on his feet. When he was in office, he took bribes and perverted the law, bringing disaster to the country and the people, and the people were miserable and complained bitterly. People can't help but ask: Isn't anyone afraid to sue him when he is in court? How could it not be? Many Zhongliang once risked their lives to play the emperor, denouncing Yan Song's illegal behavior. But Emperor Jiajing was a bad king, and he didn't know good and evil, and he didn't distinguish right from wrong. He blindly defended Yan Song, so that the ministers who played the last play were framed by the old thief one by one, so that they were as civil and military as the Qing Dynasty, and down to the common people, they hated the old thief. Yan Song's mansion used to be in the east side. Later, he moved to an alley in Xuanwu South, which was bigger and more luxurious. His family occupies a whole street, so this street is called Prime Minister Hutong. His family has a lot of money and luxury. Dozens of stone rice and cans of swill grease flow out of his sewer every year. This sewer leads to a temple. Monks salvage white rice every day, then wash it and dry it. It can still be eaten. The grease in swill is made into candles for night lighting. As the saying goes, "good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil." It's not that you don't report it, it's not the time. " Emperor Jiajing died, and after Qin Long succeeded to the throne, he wanted to get rid of Yan Song. However, in view of the seal of the old emperor: "Kill Yan Song without a sword, and chop Yan Song without a sword." The Yan thief also borrowed the seal of the first emperor and didn't pay attention to the current emperor. The emperor had to bide his time and find another good plan. In addition, Yan Song's son, Yan Shifan, became an official of the imperial court with the help of Laozi, which made him more unruly and evil. At Yan's home in Prime Minister's Hutong, a large cellar was built, which is called the basement in modern times. It is deep and big, and leads directly to Muller Stone Street. Yan Song set up a private court here to kill Zhongliang. And his son is doing all kinds of shady things here, stealing chickens and dogs and ruining good women. Finally, the scandal came to light, and the emperor decreed that the thief would be beheaded, and at the same time deprived the old thief Yan Song of his official position for the people. Didn't you cut Yan Song's sword? Instead of killing him, the emperor gave him a silver bowl to beg along the street and taste the suffering of starving civilians. In fact, his intention was to starve him to death. Yan Song enjoyed his whole life and was used to bossing around and giving orders. Tell him to beg from the people, how can he pull his face down? At first, I was still struggling. But people are iron, rice is steel, and the next day I was too hungry to stand it. So I crustily skin of head came to the street and turned around, but it was still difficult to speak. At this time, a fortune teller came up. Yan Song stepped forward to ask for good or ill luck. Suddenly he realized that his bag was empty and he was hesitating. The fortune teller has arrived. He seems to have read Yan Song's mind. Before Yan Song could speak, he studied him for a long time before saying, "Sir, you don't have to speak. You are starving. " Yan Song in this position, but still can't change his domineering nature. He thought, this poor fortune teller thinks I look like a beggar and says I'm starving. How did he know that I was the prime minister's life? So he grinned. His smile doesn't matter, so the fortune teller quickly saluted him. Yan Song was stunned and asked, "Why do you salute me as a beggar?" The fortune-teller said, "When you smile and show your teeth, you will know that you are' full of prime minister's teeth and covered with flowers and bones'." "Say to leave in a hurry. Yan Song is bored. At this moment, he was so hungry that he could no longer bear to face it. So he held a silver bowl and begged from door to door. I don't know. I ordered several in a row. Not only did no one give him a bite of leftovers, but he also scolded me everywhere: "Old thief, you have today, get out." Some simply shut him out and let him eat a "closed door." It turns out that when people in Beijing saw the beggar with a silver bowl, they knew that Yan Song was a big traitor. Who will give him a good face? At first, the old thief was lucky, thinking that someone would always give him a meal to eat, but after a few days, no one gave him a bite of leftovers. One day, he came to an alley outside Di 'anmen and suddenly saw a pile of sweet potato skins outside his house. He couldn't help drooling. I walked over and just wanted to answer it. When I saw someone coming, I was afraid to answer it. He pretended as if nothing had happened and walked over. When the man walked away, he quickly turned around, grabbed some sweet potato skins and put them in a bowl. Before he finished, another leader passed by, recognized Yan Song at a glance, and sarcastically said, "Yo! Isn't this the Lord of this dynasty? " Hearing this, the old thief got a fright and ran away like a mouse without looking up. Later, the story spread, and people called this alley "Smoke Alley".
