Chen Shimei just did what everyone would do, but why was he scolded by everyone?

Needless to say, Chen Shimei, hearing this name reminds people of the bad man who killed his wife and children, ungrateful and unfaithful, and broke his heart, but how many women really understand the difficulties of men? How many women understand men's helplessness and helplessness? What is a man? A man is a man who carries everything on his back and swallows all the bitter water in his stomach.

Chen Shimei, a poor scholar, has a poor family. If he has too many hard days, people will become negative. Looking at his poor family and his parents, wife and children who have nothing to eat all day, he is extremely sad and helpless. Although his mind is full of books, it is not as good as a bag of money. As an intellectual, he thought about it and thought that he was knowledgeable and could make great achievements. But in those days, the wind of corruption prevailed. He has nothing, no money and no power. He has a high school and a nursing child. His wife Qin Xianglian, a rural woman, didn't read many books. What can he do besides washing and cooking, embroidering and weaving? Who can he talk to about his troubles and ambitions? His wife? No, his wife is very virtuous, but she doesn't understand college questions. He didn't want her to worry and worry unnecessarily.

He also thought that he would abandon his books and go to agriculture and really be a rural villager all his life. But a refined person who studied pen and ink since childhood, without the strength of abdominal muscles, can he get the fields and climb the mountains? In his twenties, it is impossible for him to change his development direction. After ideological struggle, he decided to continue to take the exam in Beijing, because this is the only way for him to change the status quo. Looking at his parents with gray temples and his wife with cocoon and skinny breasts, he was very sad, sorry for his powerlessness and afraid of waking his family. He walked out of the door and looked at the bright moon in the sky, and his heart suddenly became sour.

The next morning, he packed his bags and prepared to go to Beijing to take the exam. His wife and children accompanied him to the village entrance and told him everything. His parents put all their savings into his hands and looked at the travel expenses sent by his wife and children and his elderly parents. He said to himself silently, if you don't succeed in going to Beijing this time, you will die. Because he knew that if he failed the exam, it would be useless for him to come back. Why make his family and his wife and children work harder? In this way, with a heart to fight for his family and a heart to burn one's bridges, he embarked on a long trip to Beijing.

From my hometown to Beijing, it can be said that Qian Shan is full of water. His parents' travel expenses are not even enough for accommodation and meals, but he knows that this is all he has. He can only sleep in the wind, walk dozens of miles every day, starve himself with moldy dry food, quench his thirst with spring water on the roadside, and find a ruined temple to stay when he is sleepy. Every night, he holds the cloth shoes sewn by his wife and looks at the bright moon in the sky, which is a great heart of missing. But he can't give up, no matter how difficult the road is, he will go on, because he knows that he is the only man in the family, and he shoulders the burden of changing the fate of the family. He can't lose. He can't lose.

After many hardships, he finally reached the capital. He wants to report to Shi Jing yamen immediately. However, officials at the Hiram's Hospital Registration Office charge each candidate a registration fee of 50 taels of silver. He was startled when he heard the news. 50 Liang? He didn't have enough to eat and sleep all the way from his hometown to Beijing, and he has spent all his meager travel expenses. Where did he get 50 taels? In a rage, he fell out in Hiram's Hospital and cursed the officials for inexplicably charging illegally. It's ridiculous that the officials looked at him noisily. An official shouted at him: you poor scholar in the countryside, you really have never seen a market. Don't come for fame if you have no money. Even if the registration fee is paid, the poor image will only fail. Come on, call me out.

Chen Shimei, who was humiliated and beaten, was desperate. He failed to live up to the expectations of his parents, wife and children, but he could do nothing in the face of such a society. He found himself so small and fragile, but what could he do? Can you die? Leaving elderly parents, wives and children behind? He is a man, because he is a man, so he must not be so irresponsible. He must be strong, and as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he must never let go. He thinks he still paints well. In order to raise the registration fee, he had to lower his head as a scholar and take his works to the market to sell. One day passed, two days passed, and his paintings were still neglected. It seems that the exam time is not far away. He is very anxious. He cried when he looked at the pictures he had drawn for two days and two nights. Tears fell on the painting drop by drop. He thinks it's over. It's all over.

Just as he was in despair, a woman stood in front of his painting booth. He wiped his tears and looked up at her. This woman is brightly dressed and has all kinds of jewels. At first glance, she is a rich woman. The lady didn't notice the seller in front of her, but she was absorbed in enjoying each painting. Finally, she chose a pair of rural spring scenery and asked, boss, how much is this painting? Chen Shimei was overjoyed. Finally, some people are willing to make an offer, but others are afraid to ask for more. Fearing that the first business would fail, Nuo Nuo said, 50p. The woman obviously couldn't believe her ears and turned her eyes to this young painter with such a low asking price, and she also read a lot carefully, "50 articles?" Hehe, young man, your price really ruined the owner of this work. "Chen Shimei was taken aback. Someone gave such a good evaluation of his painting and explained: To tell the truth, this painting was made backstage. This woman is obviously surprised, too. At present, this young man wrapped in cloth can actually draw such a work, so she asked, you look like a scholar at first sight, and you must have come to Beijing to catch the exam. Why not warm books in the inn, but so down and out, selling excellent works in the market? Chen Shimei couldn't help thinking of his down-and-out situation and feeling sad again. "To tell you the truth, my girl, surnamed Chen, is famous for her beauty and is also a scholar. She is going to Beijing to take the exam, but because her family is poor and can't afford the registration fee, she can't raise money by selling the plan in the market. "Speaking of which, Chen Shimei can't help but reveal a little embarrassed. After all, he is only a seven-foot man, but at this time, he confides his difficulties to a strange woman.

Seeing Chen Shimei's embarrassment and helplessness, the woman began to sympathize with the poor scholar. She knows that a man, especially a gentle scholar, will never lower the arrogant heads of scholars unless he has to. He has always had bad habits in literati, only the arrogant temperament of high reading. In front of him, this man who would rather give up his dignity than complete his volunteer will certainly make a difference in the future. The woman threw down an ingot of gold and said, I made this for you. You must test your reputation and go home in gold. I am very optimistic about you. After that, he jumped into the carriage with the painting and left.

Chen Shimei took this ingot of gold, too excited to speak, and looked at the distant carriage, thinking that one day, my fame would definitely repay my lady's kindness in meeting him. But what he didn't know was that the girl left not only gold, but also her heart.

Who the hell is that woman? In fact, she is the princess of the dynasty. The princess is not only outstanding in appearance, but also proficient in piano, chess, painting and calligraphy. Unfortunately, the emperor of the dynasty was a daughter. Otherwise, she will be a saint in the future. But the emperor doted on her.

Chen Shimei took part in the scientific research as he wished, and soon finished four examination questions. After handing in the paper, he breathed a deep sigh of relief, and then he will wait for the day when the results are released. The darkness of officialdom is the abuse of power. Many invigilators cut Chen Shimei's papers after receiving a large amount of bribes, and Chen Shimei's papers were not included in the papers submitted to imperial academy for approval. Imperial academy handed the annotated papers to the emperor for instructions, and selected Cohen's first place, second place and flower exploration this year. When the cabinet bachelors sent the papers to the imperial study, the princess couldn't wait to see Chen Shimei's papers, only to find that there was no one. She became uneasy and began to trace the whereabouts of Chen Shimei's paper. Finally, she flew into a rage when she learned that the corrupt invigilator had detained the test paper. At the foot of the son of heaven, there was such audacity, so she launched the emperor to investigate the matter, and Chen Shimei's article was also able to see the light of day. But the princess didn't tell the emperor at once that she had a clock with Chen Shimei. She has just sent Chen Shimei's article to imperial academy for review and guidance by cabinet bachelors. After reading it, the cabinet bachelors agreed that the headline was Chen Shimei's. After it was delivered to the emperor, the emperor was also very happy to see it. The article is incisive and original, and it is indeed a rare masterpiece.

In this way, Chen Shimei finally became today's top scholar. Chen Shimei inquired about the whereabouts of the woman who helped him. The princess was very happy when she learned that. He is really not an ungrateful person, so she met him again. The two chatted very congenially. The princess was also fascinated by Chen Shimei's comprehensive talent, but Chen Shimei didn't know that this woman was actually a princess, and he didn't dare to think about it, because even though this woman had unique temperament and talent, he kept thinking about it.

Before long, Chen Shimei got the reuse of the emperor, and immediately went to his post. Chen Shimei is so happy that he can finally go home to visit his parents, wife and children. But just as he was on his way, he received an imperial decree from the emperor to betroth the princess to him. The bad news blinded him on the spot. How could he take the princess? He has a family! He immediately entered the palace and wanted to tell the emperor everything, but when he got to the palace, he found that the princess turned out to be a graceful woman who recreated herself. At this point, he was completely at a loss. For a man who thanked him for his kindness, he really didn't know how to refuse it. At this time, Chen Shimei has been unable to solve. If he refuses on the spot, it will not only cause a great blow to the princess, but also make him bloodbath Jiuzu, even his wife and children. What can he do? Who can teach him? In desperation, he only acquiesced in all this.

Back to the mansion, Chen Shimei black at the moment. When he was in a coma, he kept hearing instructions from his wife when she left, and the child's first call to his father. He saw the meager travel expenses given to him by his elderly parents. All this gradually blurred and another figure appeared in front of him. Is a princess, a graceful figure, saw the scene of laughing with him, and saw his kindness in the most difficult time.

The princess's wedding was held in a grand ceremony. Officials from all over the country came to Beijing to congratulate him and celebrate the whole country. Chen Shimei, dressed as a groom, is really charming and handsome, but her face is always full of helplessness. How can he explain it to his parents, wife and children? After the party, the princess saw his sad face and asked him what was wrong. Under the inner pain, he finally revealed the truth to the princess. The princess felt like a bolt from the blue. Looking at the beloved man in front of her, at this critical moment, at this wedding moment, she actually knows that he is a man with a wife and children, but the princess can't live without this self-assertion promise. Who told excellent men and women to love each other? It's strange to meet again after a short meeting.

That night, everyone was concerned about the night, so Chen Shimei and the princess sat in silence all night. The princess knows that she is a princess of a country, and the whole royal family is watching the wedding. How can she give up at this moment? Even if I don't give up, how can I be married to a peasant woman? Isn't this a slippery record? The princess let Chen Shimei choose whether to have her or his wife. Chen Shimei, how to choose? One is the wife of dross, and the other is a woman who is kind to herself. How to choose? Choose anyone who will be ungrateful.

The princess knew that it was really difficult for a man like him to make such a choice, so the princess chose it for him and sent someone to Chen Shimei's house to give him 22,000 gold and 1,000 mu of fertile land for his parents, wife and children to enjoy for a lifetime. Everything Chen Shimei did to the princess was kept in the dark, because the princess knew that if he knew, he would definitely stop her, but who called love selfish?

But it's not as simple as the princess thought. Qin Xianglian cried her eyes out when she learned that her husband and princess were actually married. She thought that when Chen Shimei became famous, she didn't want this home. She thought he had changed and became greedy for money. In order to find a husband, she took her two-year-old son to Beijing for a long journey to find the father of the child.

When I arrived in Beijing, because I was just a village woman, I was blocked by layers. She thought it was all because Chen Shimei didn't want to see her orders, but she didn't know that Chen Shimei was still in the palace watching his wife sew cloth shoes with her own hands, thinking about it sadly. How much he wants to go back to the past and his family, but these are so far away. Thought of here, he actually shed tears and cried with his wife's cloth shoes.

Qin Xianglian didn't find her husband, so she went to the government to report to the official. Knowing this, officials in yamen attached great importance to it, because it was the first time in history that Xu's family case was prosecuted. The case spread and court officials talked about it. Even some people with ulterior motives actually linked it to the royal scandal. The emperor was very angry when he knew it, because it insulted the majesty of the royal family. He's going to get rid of Chen Shimei and add him.

Knowing that the emperor wanted to punish Chen Shimei, the princess immediately pleaded with the emperor, hoping to settle the matter before making a decision. The emperor was eager to love his daughter, so she had to promise. The princess found Qin Xianglian privately, explaining the purpose of being with Qin Xianglian and the meeting between the princess and Chen Shimei. Hearing this, Qin Xianglian still feel puzzled. She is just a village woman who only wants to find her husband and reunite with her family. All this is correct, but she ignores it. So there is no doubt that this conversation between the princess is useless, because there is no problem between her and her. The mistake is to fall in love with someone at the same time, but is it wrong to love someone?

Qin Xianglian still holds the attitude of never giving up until she finds her husband, and the incident has reached the point where it is out of control. The emperor couldn't stand it any longer, so he decided to order Chen Shimei to be beheaded with her. The majesty of the royal family is inviolable. When Chen Shimei knew this, he begged to see the emperor. After seeing the emperor, Chen Shimei was desperate. Mental torture and external pressure have made him almost a walking corpse. Facing the emperor, he knelt down and begged the emperor to let his wife and children go, because he couldn't let himself get into trouble with his family. The emperor also knows about it. Nobody is wrong, but what can he do? If the majesty of the royal family is lost, the royal family is in danger and the emperor is helpless. Chen Shimei decided to bear all the notoriety and accept sanctions to save the royal majesty and the lives of all the young and old, including the princess, because the princess had already performed the ceremony of husband and wife with Chen Shimei, even though she was a member of the Chen family. The emperor was very moved and sorry when he heard this suggestion, but he agreed to his request.

Later, Chen Shimei was convicted and punished for killing his wife and abandoning his children, ingratitude, insulting the reputation of the royal family, cheating the monarch, and was sentenced to death for several crimes. On the day of execution, the emperor did not approve the princess and Qin Xianglian to enter the palace, because the emperor knew that this would make the two women miserable. Chen Shimei was very grateful to the emperor for everything he had done. During the execution, Chen Shimei smiled at the sky. That smile is so heartbreaking and helpless. The executive officer was puzzled, but was shocked by the laughter and felt a little sad after listening.

It was raining heavily, and the rain hit Chen Shimei in the face. His laughter became more intense. I don't know whether to laugh or mourn. I can't say at the moment. Looking at his desperate eyes, I don't know whether it is rain or tears. Maybe he cried, the third and last time ... men shouldn't cry, but I don't know why, tears will burst one day. ...
