Win the Ding 1617

A eight-treasure glazed lamp with brass as the lamp base was polished crystal clear, emitting a lovely light on the small table of the Arhat bed. ?. .Several dried and fresh fruits are listed on the armrest table made of fine Qiongzhou huanghuali, and several young eunuchs are waiting in front of Luohan's bed.

Through this light, Wang Dehua looked at the godson who was kneeling on the right side of the Arhat's bed, with a strange smile on his face, "Good son, hurry up!"

The little eunuch responded with a smile on his face: "Godfather, wait a moment, it will be ready soon!"

As he spoke, he did not dare to slack off in his hands.Knead the black paste in your hand into small balls, pick one up with a thin copper wire, and bake it on the lamp. After a while, bursts of strange fragrance will fill the whole room.

Taking a bong with an emerald mouth from the wooden stand beside it, the little eunuch took the burnt smoke bubble from the lamp, looked at it carefully, and found that it had reached the point of yellow, big, and loose, and then carefully put the smoke out. Put it into the bong, turned around and handed the cigarette holder to Wang Dehua, "Godfather, it's all right, please use it!"

Taking the bong, Wang Dehua took a few mouthfuls of it greedily, with an intoxicated and satisfied expression on his face, "Oh! Unexpectedly, Uncle Li's third son would have such ability to give the emperor and us from Bangladesh. The family got this drug!" Yes, what Wang Dehua smoked was the so-called drug, fu, shou, ointment, which is the opium we are familiar with.

(Crack! A brick flew over! It hit the author's head. "You're talking nonsense again! Crow, tablet is a patent from the period of the Manchus. When did I, Ming Dynasty, have this thing?!")

("Wrong! Although it is said that crows and tablets reached unprecedented heights during the Daoguang period, it is not a matter of one generation! It is a long historical process!")

In the Neolithic housing estate excavated in Switzerland in 4 BC, archaeologists discovered crows, poppy seeds and fruits that had been artificially hybridized!In 34 BC, there had been a large area of ​​artificial planting in the Mesopotamia. In 1, opium and tablets had become veterinary and gynecological medicines.In the tombs of ancient Egypt in [-] BC, the famous brand of Thebes opium, piece!

At least in the fifth century BC, the ancient Greeks had begun to plant and eat poppy. The Greeks found that it could soothe the nerves, relieve pain, relieve diarrhea, relieve cough, and forget worries. The Horse Odyssey calls it the Anxiety Potion! 'The ancient Greeks drank wine with poppy juice at carnivals celebrating the grain harvest.

There is also a story about poppy in ancient Greek mythology. It is said that there is a devil god in charge of death called Hypnos. His son Mafis holds the poppy fruit in his hand and guards his sleeping father so that he will not be killed. Wake up the statue of Demeter, the goddess of grain in the golden age of Athens, holding ears of wheat and poppy flowers in her hands. In the second century BC, the famous ancient Greek doctor Galen (Galen) recorded opium. Pills can be cured Diseases: Headache, dizziness, deafness, epilepsy, stroke, amblyopia, bronchitis, asthma, cough, hemoptysis, abdominal pain, jaundice, sclerosis of the spleen, kidney stones, urinary problems, fever, edema, leprosy, irregular menstruation, depression disease! Anti-poison and poisonous insect bites, etc. After AD, poppy has been widely planted in the European continent and the Arab world'! And in the famous novel of the Count of Monte Cristo, the avenger also used opium, flakes and marijuana chapters.

As for when poppy was introduced to China, there are different opinions. One theory is that when Zhang Yang dug through the Western Regions, it was introduced to China together with green onions, grapes, garlic and other crops. Some people even speculated that Hua Tuo used it as an anesthetic during the Three Kingdoms period. Opium tablets are contained in Mafeisan, but there is no clear evidence to support this statement.

There are also descriptions about the use of this object in the works of many literati.

Do not believe?Let's look for a few.

In Li Bai's poem: "In the past, it was a hibiscus flower, but now it is a heart-broken grass. If you use sex to serve others, how long can you get it?" The heart-broken grass is poppy.The rice sac flower of Guo Zhen in the Tang Dynasty: "Blooming empty road is better than grass, how can it help the people when it is fruitful? But you laugh at wild field grains and millet, and don't hear the strings to live your youth." Li Zhenbai, who is also a poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote in his " "Song of Poppy Seeds" describes it like this: "Shuangluzi is placed upside down, and green teeth are expected to be inserted. It looks like sacrificed milk, but also like a bell and a horseshoe. There is a reason for drumming and waterfall arrows."…

In the Song Dynasty.This thing has gradually changed from ornamental to edible.Poppy seed husks are used as a tonic and eaten in fish cakes and Buddha porridge.Fish cakes are made by washing poppy seeds, grinding milk, removing slag, boiling and gathering them into small pieces. When eating, they are steamed with red yeast rice wine and taken out to make fish scale-like small pieces. This kind of poppy cake is instant For the fish cakes.Buddha porridge is cooked with poppy seeds and bamboo wine.Su Shi’s poem described the poppies that people in Song Dynasty ate like this: “The Taoists persuaded them to drink chicken and soda water, and boys can cook Yingsu soup.” Spring vegetables are actually better than autumn grains." "Research and make milk, cook it as Buddha porridge", "Old man's spirit is weak, and there is not much to eat; meat is not consumed, and vegetables are tasteless." "Youren and monk, relative forgetting to speak", "Drink a cup, laugh happily. "Symptoms such as these are all human body reactions after using poppy. But at this time, people are only taking the seed shells of poppy, and have not yet mastered the technology of stabbing poppy venom to make opium tablets.

However, by the Ming Dynasty, this kind of thing had quietly appeared in people's lives, and it was mentioned in Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica.Planting and harvesting have occurred in Guizhou, Yunnan and other places.

In the mainland, opium and tablets have gradually evolved from eating to smoking.

However, compared to the Mainland.The opium poppy planting in Bangladesh was much earlier and the area was much larger.

It was Li Huaxuan who snatched the smoking utensils and high-quality tobacco that Wang Dehua had obtained from the city of Barisal.

After the two cigarettes were finished, Wang Dehua closed his eyes to enjoy the fairy-like feeling at that moment, talking to himself, as if he was chatting with his eunuchs. "Our family has been cleansed and entered the palace since childhood. For so many years, I didn't know how many injuries I had on my body. Now that we have this thing, our family seems to be alive again!"

The little eunuch serving at the side picked up a piece of pine nut candy and put it in the mouth of the prince, "Godfather, please use it."

Chewing the candy in his mouth, Wang Dehua felt the little eunuch get off the Arhat bed lightly, and took a blanket to wrap his legs and feet.Then he asked the eunuch who was serving in a low voice, "Is the rock sugar, lotus seed and white fungus soup ready for my father-in-law to use later?"

Anyone who sucks crows.slice of people.Everyone loves sweets after smoking, and Wang Dehua is no exception.

In the moment of waiting for the sweet soup.Wang Dehua seemed to be in the clouds, thinking of the situation when the envoy reported victory two days ago in his mind, he couldn't help laughing.

"Duh! These bumpkins!"

Didn't know he was laughing at that either.

That day I heard Zhang Ergou talk about the battle on the pier outside Barisal.At first, everyone couldn't help sweating their palms when they heard it. They broke into a cold sweat because of this third young master. With such a wild and fierce team, the third young master is just entering the battle. What should he do when he meets such an opponent?

But when they heard that this group of people charged so frantically, they were about to kneel down and surrender when they rushed to the front, and everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Ergou! You made up this joke well! This is the funniest joke I've heard this year!" For Zhang Ergou, the second generation who grew up in Nanzhong, Shouhan usually treats him like his nephew. .

"My lord! The conscience of heaven and earth! This was the real situation at that time!"

Until a group of captives whose faces and bodies were stamped with countless marks by their own feet were captured and interrogated.I learned the truth from Tong Tong's mouth.

It turned out that when the first round of artillery fire hit, this group of people had already collapsed!Immediately, some people began to flee, one took away ten, and ten led a hundred.The entire army of thousands of people retreated.

However, the ones who survived were the first group of people who escaped.He ran straight towards the port.It was they who made the empiricist error.In the past, if someone came to attack the city, if they were defeated by others, they would immediately flee to the pier.Find a boat on the river, escape to the boat, go down the river, hide for a while, and wait until the chaotic period when the enemy army entered the city passed, and then they quietly returned to the city.

But today they were blindfolded by the artillery fire, and they just kept fleeing towards the pier.He completely forgot that the enemy army in front of him was waiting in full force on the pier.

After listening to this confession, others were fine with it, but the group of Fusang mercenaries were so angry that the three corpses jumped violently, and the seven orifices were filled with smoke.I was frightened once in vain and didn't say anything.The performance of each one is very embarrassing.and.If I had known that the army coming from the opposite side was such a cowardly and cowardly man, why didn't I rush forward as soon as possible.Stab a few to death and cut off a head to get a big reward!

With a lot of anger, all the warriors of different levels from various famous families in Fusang watched Qing Bingwei receive two bolts of high-quality dyed muslin cloth in front of the third highness, and was immediately promoted to be the head of his post. , suddenly broke out with a soaring fighting spirit.

"It's still the same sentence! If there is resistance, attack the city, and the Fusang soldiers can rest on the spot for three days!" With such a good thing, the group of poor and frightened devils immediately shouted.

The Fusang soldiers rushed forward aggressively, followed by the three or four thousand Barisal local soldiers who had just been captured and surrendered. They all wrapped their arms and legs with jute piled up on the pier a few times. Use them as cannon fodder during sieges.

Seeing the lines of jute on his arms and legs, a soldier blurted out, "These soldiers with yellow shoes!"

From then on, the cannon fodder team formed by the Southern Guangdong Army fighting in various places, capturing or incorporating local armed forces, has an alias.

Under the frantic attack of a group of Fusang dead soldiers who were full of anger after being fooled, the siege battle progressed extremely smoothly, and it was almost a drumbeat.

Checking the treasury, in addition to a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, there are more than a thousand catties of fine tobacco soil and extremely exquisite and luxurious smoking sets enjoyed by the king himself.

These were all handed over by Zhang Ergou.

"Except for some of the gold and silver left in the front as rewards for the army, the third son ordered me to bring back all these drugs and give them to the lord. The earth king confessed that this thing is quite good for people. There are also some gentlemen in the army. I know this product, saying it is a holy medicine for healing and a good nourishing product. Tang Taizong’s eye disease was cured by the doctor with this blessing, longevity and ointment. Also, since the Chenghua period, the palace has had this product for the emperor. His Majesty uses it. It is said that both Chenghua Lord and Wanli Lord used it back then. This is also the filial piety of the third son to the lord..."

Zhang Ergou was still chattering about the benefits of opium and opium, but he didn't notice that Shou Han's face had become completely different from the people around him.

Others' faces were full of joy and enthusiasm, but Shou Han's face was frosty and his eyes were murderous.

"Mo Yu! Get the hell out of me!"

Mo Yu, who was similar to the chief of the Guards, hurried in from the door, and hadn't had time to finish the military salute to the defender.Shou Han had already thrown his saber off the table and threw it into his arms.

"Go! Go now! Go to Barisal City and give me that little thief Li Huaxuan to be executed before the army! There must be no mistakes!"

Seeing that Li Shouhan was suddenly furious and wanted to execute his son Junqian, who had made great achievements in attacking the city thousands of miles away, everyone present was at a loss for a moment.Li Peilin went forward to comfort him, but at the same time ordered Mo Yu to retreat first, and with a sneaky wink, he ordered him to send a letter to Yan Meier and others in the back house, asking his wife to come and intercede for the third son.

Wang Dehua also didn't know why Uncle Ning Yuan suddenly lost his temper.He actually wanted to kill his own son?In his mouth, Li Peilin and Li Peilin persuaded Shou Han without saying a word, trying to find out Shou Han's real purpose by making insinuations.

But where do they know what Shou Han is really thinking at this time?

Before the British secretly took tea away from China and successfully planted it in India, in order to eliminate the large trade deficit with China, the British adopted the evil method of smuggling opium and tablets.

Although in the Ming Dynasty, some people began to use opium and tablets as medicine.And also began to smoke, becoming a hedonistic luxury, from decocting soup to smoking, so that opium and tablets became drugs, and gradually spread from a small number of upper-class people to the general public.It was under the deliberate promotion of the Western colonists that the Chinese nation was almost wiped out.

The method of smoking opium was introduced into China from foreign countries.One theory is that the method of smoking opium tablets was first invented by the natives of Southeast Asia, who would extract the opium.Cook the slices juice, then filter out the residue, mix with tobacco to form pellets, or only use cooked opium, slices into pellets, put them in a bamboo tube and smoke them on fire.However, the tobacco originating in the Americas and the smoking customs of the Indians were brought to Southeast Asia by the Spaniards, while the opium was probably first brought by the Portuguese and the Dutch.It is also possible that smoking mixed with tobacco itself was brought to Southeast Asia by Europeans.

The authorities of the Dutch East India Company in Batavia also banned the Dutch from smoking opium and tablets, but only the Dutch, not the local Javanese.

When the Dutch introduced opium into Southeast Asia, it spread to Taiwan.It may also be that Chinese merchants and immigrants who went to Southeast Asia for trade at that time brought back opium, tablets and smoking methods.Huang Shulin’s Taiwan Strait Envoy Ruolu recorded this way, “Crow, sliced ​​cigarettes are made of Mage and crow, sliced, shredded in a copper baffle, boiled into smoke, and used in a bamboo tube with shredded silk. When inhaled, the air will be injected directly into the pubic region. Sleepless at night" "Scholars suck this as a sex guide tool, their limbs shrink, their hidden organs collapse, crows, and pieces of soil come out to bite" and so on. (The so-called bite bar refers to the Java Islands.) At the end of the Ming Dynasty, some areas along the southeast coast of China, especially the coastal areas of Fujian and Guangdong, also began to be smoked.sliced.And in the early Qing Dynasty, smoking crows.The number of filmmakers gradually increased, and by the Qianlong period, it was quite common in the southeast coastal areas.

Although in the Ming Dynasty, some people in China began to make opaques and tablets, but at that time there were only opaques in China.films, mainly imported from overseas.In the tribute trade in the early Ming Dynasty, opium and tablets were also included in the tributes of some countries in Southeast Asia.For example, Zhuo Luo once paid 3 catties of crows and pieces as a tribute.But at that time, the amount of imported opium and flakes was very small, and the price of opium and flakes on the market was very expensive, comparable to the price of gold.During the Wanli period, the import of opium and tablets gradually increased. In the 17th year of Wanli (189), opium and tablets were included in the list of taxable goods for the first time. Taxes are collected for one cent, seven cents and three cents of silver. The way of import is not only as tribute in the tribute, but also the trade import of Chinese merchants and Dutch and Portuguese merchants who went to Southeast Asia for trade.

The earliest Western countries sold opium and tablets to China were the Portuguese and the Dutch.The Portuguese who first entered East Asia were also the first to discover the trade value of opium. In 118, the commander of the Portuguese expeditionary force, Abuquerque, wrote to Manuel II from Malacca , flake trade. However, the Dutch were more engaged in the opium and flake trade in the early days. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Fang Yizhi clearly stated that the opium flakes were made by the red-haired (Dutch) people, while the Portuguese occupied After Macao, with Macao as the base, the opium and tablets produced in Mawa, India, were transported to Guangzhou. The main importers of opium and tablets became the Portuguese. And, until 1773, the British began to import Indian opium and tablets to China. Before, opium was mainly imported by the Portuguese.

Since the Shou Han led the Southern Cantonese Army to capture the Manlajia area, they paid little attention to the import of this thing. For the growers and sellers, they all broke down the villages and sent them all into slaves to do the most dangerous and heavy work. Poor food, enjoy political treatment without pardon.

But never mind.But I didn't expect my son to hand this thing in front of you as a spoil of war captured from the natives today.I also told you that this is something enjoyed by the court and the emperor.

How can this not make the guard furious?

This thunderous and typhoon-like action scared Zhang Ergou to his knees immediately, trembling all over. He didn't know what he was saying, but he could vaguely hear that he was pleading for Li Huaxuan, asking the lord to kill his head. Don't blame the third son.

"Sister, what is such a big temper? Ao Lei Yilan saw the tiger just now. She was happy for a while, and she might have moved her fetus and was about to give birth. It's not appropriate for you to shout and kill here at this time Bar?"

After hearing the news, Yan Meier hurried over and persuaded Shou Han softly, and sisters Mei Shan and Shi Lin, who were kneeling at the gate, were also crying like pear blossoms with rain, pleading unceasingly.Please forgive that dishonest thing.

The women in the inner house here pleaded with the third son, and Li Peilin also whispered into the guard's ear: "My lord, which one did the third son commit? Is it worth it? You have set the rules. You can't kill without reason. If We can't expose the crime, I'm afraid it will damage the prestige of the lord."

this? !Can Shouhan speak out about this crime? "Oh! You kid, don't you know that this is a drug that has been in China for hundreds of years?"

"Ma'am! There has been movement from Mrs. Seven!" A woman hurried over, her voice was not loud in Yanmei'er's ear but everyone could hear it clearly, "Mrs. The master brings a message, please don't blame his third brother for the sake of the unborn child."

have to!Even the unborn child came out to intercede, how could Shou Han not know the seriousness? !

"Uncle, look at our family's old face. Also look at the great victory of the Southern Guangdong Army. Don't worry about the little mistake of the third son. If there is any mistake, it is unintentional. It will not lead to death. "At this time, if Wang Dehua doesn't come out to sell this favor and give Shou Han a step down, he won't be worthy of being the eunuch with palm prints.

"Father-in-law, this uncle's anger is out of a public heart. This little thief seized such a valuable thing, not to mention offering it to the emperor, but he wanted to place this uncle in a place of infidelity and injustice. Such actions should not be done." Kill?!"

have to!Both sides have a great, bright and just cause.

Shou Han ordered Zhang Ergou to hand over more than 1000 kilograms of high-quality smoke to Wang Dehua's subordinates for safekeeping, and planned to ask Wang Gonggong to transport it to the capital to serve the emperor.Along with the smoke soil, there were several sets of exquisite smoking sets.

"Be careful, my father-in-law has worked hard for the country these years and has become ill. You might as well be proud of the haze in your spare time."

Both Emperor Chenghua and Emperor Wanli used this product to treat physical diseases. Today, I have the opportunity to enjoy this product. How can Wang Dehua not thank you?

However, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, when the Shou Han accepted his civil and military pilgrimage, a military order was issued.

Anyone who traffics, grows, and uses opium without a license without the permission of the Secretary of State has a shackle number of one month, and the whole family will be sent to the army as an official slave, and will not be pardoned.Those who secretly open opium and opium shops to lure the children of good families will be sentenced to death according to the law of cults to confuse the public; the family property will be confiscated, and half of the property of the parents and three clans will be confiscated.Those who transport cigarettes or their accomplices will receive one hundred sticks, and they will be sent to ten prefectures and other places to be exiled into the army; those who do not report their knowledge, such as boat owners, land protectors, and neighbors, will all have one hundred sticks, and will be issued as official slaves for three years; military servicemen, etc. It is necessary to claim, calculate the stolen goods, and punish the crimes according to the law; the local civil and military officials in Xunkou who neglected to supervise, and the customs supervision that did not conduct supervision, were handed over to the Secretary for strict discussion.

At the same time, a secret order was issued to the medical doctors, "Although this substance is used a lot, it is poisonous, but it is also a good medicine if it is used well. Please explore diligently to find out the good prescription for anesthesia and pain relief." )

ps:?? Then what!Ask for a monthly pass and subscription!
