    "Adultery" is a hot topic nowadays.  Today, I will tell you a story about an adulterer.  Its people and deeds are derived from "Under the Bed Loyalty" in "Qian Wen Ji" written by Zhu Yunming, one of the "Four Talents of Wumen" (commonly known as "Four Talents in Jiangnan" Zhu Yunming, Tang Yin, Wen Zhengming, and Xu Zhenqing)  one article.

    It is said that when the Ming Dynasty was established and Zhu Yuanzhang was the emperor, he set the capital in Yingtianfu, which is today's Nanjing.  Zhu Yuanzhang's year name is Hongwu, so everyone will also call Zhu Yuanzhang Emperor Hongwu, and the period of Zhu Yuanzhang's reign is called Hongwu Dynasty.  This is gossip, slightly off.

    What I want to talk about here is not Zhu Yuanzhang, but a strange person and a strange event in Yingtianfu under Zhu Yuanzhang's rule.

    During the Hongwu period, there was an officer in the capital.  This officer had an affair with his neighbor's wife, and the two committed adultery in private.  To use a popular joke nowadays, this officer is the famous "Neighbor King".

    One morning, at dawn, the officer found that his neighbor had gone out, so he sneaked into the neighbor's house.  After entering the door, they went straight to the bedroom. The neighbor's wife hadn't gotten up yet, and the two of them started messing around.

    There has been a Chinese saying since ancient times: a wife is worse than a concubine, a concubine is worse than a thief, and stealing is worse than not being able to steal.  It can be said that it sums up the psychology of entanglement and entanglement between men and women very well.

    For this scene where the officer and his neighbor¡¯s wife sneak together in Yunyu, everyone can use their imagination and make up their own brains (some words are omitted here).

    Just when the two were in full swing, the neighbor suddenly opened the door and came back.  Hearing the opening of the door, both the officer and the neighbor's wife were startled.  The officer hastily grabbed his clothes, shoes and socks, and tremblingly got under the neighbor's bed.  Speaking of this, the northerners may ask: If in the north, everyone sleeps on the kang, wouldn't the officer be in big trouble?  He can't get into the kang hole, can he?  The kang cave in winter is a pile of fireworks and ashes!  In fact, you don't have to worry about the officer either!  Even if there are only kangs and no beds, there will still be traditional Tibetan places such as cabinets and boxes!

    By the time the neighbor entered the bedroom, the officer had already hid under the bed; the neighbor's wife had already made the bed and put it in a sleeping position.

    The bedroom door opened slightly, and the neighbor's wife pretended to be sleepy, and asked her husband who entered the room:

    "Honey, why did you come back right after you went out? Did you leave anything behind?"

    The husband replied:

    "I walked a few steps outside, and I feel that the weather is quite cold today. On the way, I thought that when I went out just now, you were sleeping soundly, and I saw your little feet exposed outside. I was afraid of waking you up, so I didn't help you.  I pulled the quilt and went out. I was freezing on the road, and I thought you didn¡¯t cover it tightly, so I was afraid that you would freeze and catch a cold, so I came back to help you cover the quilt.¡±

    With that said, the husband helped his wife cover the quilt and said to her:

    "Honey, it's cold today, sleep more!"

    Then, he kissed his lover lightly on the forehead, and the husband went out.

    The officer lay under the cold bed and heard this heart-warming scene in the bedroom with his own ears. Suddenly, his heart moved and he thought to himself:

    On weekdays, I really didn't realize that the neighbor loves his wife so much.  I never expected that the neighbor loves his wife so much, and his wife would hook up with me behind her husband's back. This woman is really not a thing!

    Thinking about it, the officer became angry.  After the neighbor left, the officer took out his saber and killed the neighbor's wife on the spot.  After killing people, the officer walked away, as if nothing happened, he should go to work and drink.

    After the officer killed the man, he went away.  I don't want to, but this incident caused another person to suffer a huge injustice.

    Down

    That morning, the process of the officer killing the neighbor's wife was very secretive. No one around knew that the murder had occurred in this family, and the officer left the crime scene safely.

    Coincidentally, an old vegetable seller who often supplies vegetables to neighbors fell ill on this day.  After the officer murdered and left, the old vegetable seller came early in the morning to deliver vegetables to the neighbors.  The old vegetable seller knocked on the door and no one answered, and the door was unlocked, so he entered the neighbor's house as usual.  The old man who bought vegetables yelled again and again, but no one answered.  Seeing the bedroom door of this house was wide open, the old vegetable seller thought that the family had already woken up, so he didn't have any scruples. He went directly to the bedroom door to call the owner, and didn't want to stretch his head to look into the bedroom. There was a very scary scene in front of him: a  A bloody smell came out, the blood flowed from the bed all over the floor, the woman was already dead on the bed

    The old vegetable seller was startled, slumped on the ground, and shouted:

    "It's killing people!It's"

    The neighbors of this family heard the shout and all ran over to have a look. They wanted to know what happened.

    The neighbors came in and saw the old vegetable seller sitting paralyzed at the door of the bedroom. The bedroom was covered with bright red blood from the bed to the floor, and the neighbor's wife was lying on the bed, looking paleSeeing this, someone hurried over,  Calling the neighbor's wife's name, the neighbor's wife didn't answer, and put her hand on her nose, and she was breathless.

    At the scene of the murder, there was only this corpse and an old vegetable seller.

    There is no way, in order not to be implicated, everyone can only escort the old vegetable seller to report to the official.

    Think about it, this old vegetable seller is a very honest person who can't write or speak.  By beating, kicking and violently using violence, the old man became disoriented.  Because the old man who bought vegetables couldn't prove his innocence, and he couldn't stand all kinds of torture, so he pleaded guilty.  When the old vegetable seller pleaded guilty, the government was also very happy, and he went around preaching that he handled cases like a god and was extremely efficient.

    Since the old vegetable seller pleaded guilty, according to the law, life for life, the old man is of course a capital crime.

    ? On that day, after the public sentencing conference was held in the street, in front of everyone, the imperial court wanted to behead the wronged old vegetable seller as a public example as a warning to others.

    Before the execution was about to be executed, the officer suddenly stood up and said:

    "This old man cannot be killed. The woman's death has nothing to do with this old man. I killed the man, and I am willing to plead guilty before the official."

    The staff in charge of the on-site execution did not dare to be careless when they saw the scene, so they could only postpone their actions and led the officers to meet the senior leaders.

    The senior leaders met with the officer and asked:

    "What's the matter with you?"

    The officer replied:

    "The woman who was killed was my neighbor's wife. She was pretty, and because of the occasional past, our two eyebrows met. Before killing that woman, I had been secretly talking with her  Tryst. That morning, because it was cold outside, the neighbor thought that his wife¡¯s feet would be exposed outside when he went out. He was afraid that she would catch cold, so he came back and covered her with a quilt.  The deep love of my wife, thinking about this bitch is really not a thing, I swung a knife to chop her up in a moment of anger This thing was done by me, it has nothing to do with the old vegetable seller, if you kill me, kill me.  "

    The senior leaders asked the staff to record the officer's statement, and strictly verified and compared everything the officer said with all kinds of evidence collected in the case.  match.

    Just like that, the old vegetable seller came back with his life saved.

    ?After joint discussion and collective decision-making, the senior leaders believe that:

    The officer killed a shameless, heartless and unrighteous woman, and saved the life of the old vegetable seller. It was still humane. Even if he committed adultery, it was still forgivable, so the officer was released.
