Holy Bone

Although more than 400 million Yinde has been captured, Jin'an did not seal it immediately tonight because of the many people in the criminal investigation department.

In the early morning of the next day, Jin An found out where to buy breakfast, so he put on a dog leash and went out early to buy breakfast.

As soon as he heard that Jin An was going out to buy breakfast, the old Taoist didn't know what to think, so he followed up: "Old Taoist, it's also the first time for me to come to the capital with you, little brother. Let's take a good look around and see what delicious food there is in the capital."

Seeing Jin An go out with the dog, the sentence that the criminal investigation department repeated most to Jin An today was: "Good morning, Daoist Jin'an, why don't you take the dog for a walk so early?"

Jin An smiled and nodded every time: "Yeah."

An old dog who learns how to dress like a human and looks like a dog took to the street. It is conceivable how ostentatious it is, causing quite a commotion.

After all, this is the first time people have seen a person who raises a dog as his son. The key is that this person is still a Taoist priest. Is it unusual for you to ask?
So not long after, Jin An followed a long line of urchins, staring at the old dog.

"Little brother, aren't we too ostentatious?" The old Taoist looked left and right. The bustling capital can hide half the world's wealth, and people are dazzled by it.

Jin An said with a chuckle: "What you want is to show off in the market, so that the owner can come to claim it as soon as possible. You can't really keep it for a lifetime."

The old Taoist was happy: "It doesn't take a lifetime. If a dog lives for one year, it is equal to ten years for a human. It has already reached the age of six or seventy when a dog is born."

Buddhism flourished in Kangding, and the two talked while walking. On the way, they saw several groups of monastery monks knocking on wooden fish and copper bowls, going from house to house to pray for alms.

There are easy-to-talk merchants, and there are also difficult-to-talk merchants. Some merchants feel that it is unlucky to meet a begging monk early in the morning before opening their business, and they will push and drive away the monk.

Suddenly formed a strange picture.

Taoist priests dress their dogs and get up early for a walk, attracting attention, and monks get up early for alms but are chased away by merchants. This picture is awkward no matter how you look at it.

Because there is no curfew in the capital, even though it is just past five o'clock, around five o'clock in the morning, many breakfast stalls, breakfast shops, porridge shops, and soybean milk shops in the markets and streets have opened for business, and the aroma is fragrant.

In addition to the traditional fried dough sticks and soy milk buns, there are also pork pancakes, vegetable cakes, steamed stuffed buns with chicken skin, waist and kidney offal, crystal noodles, fried clips, fried frozen fish heads, pig offal, mozang, red shredded, finely seasoned 馉饳er, Spicy foot ginger, spicy radish... just the breakfast on the street, steamed, boiled, broiled, fried, fried, and fried. It can be seen that the people here are rich and rich in food.If you prefer sweets for breakfast, there are also desserts such as crispy candied dates, jujubes, Chengsha dumplings, fragrant sweets, fried and carved flowers on the street. They are all exquisite and beautiful, and they are sold in plum red boxes. , but also good-looking.

If there is any delicacy on the street that has the strongest aroma, it is natural that the mutton steak is the first!Because the royal family and nobles in the capital believed that pork was unclean and preferred mutton, this also caused the people in the capital to follow suit and eat mutton.

For example, early in the morning, you can smell the strong aroma of fried lamb sausage, batch-cut lamb head, lamb head belly lung, red and white kidney...Let’s take the spin-fried sheep’s white sausage as an example. The fat sheep’s large intestine is fried in a pan with white fat and oil, and then dipped in the seasoning.

Standing in front of a mutton restaurant, the old Taoist couldn't move his legs. He winked at Jin'an and called out "little brother, little brother..."

That's why the old Taoist came out with Jin An.

During the one-month boat ride, I was under the eyes of goats every day, and I couldn't steal any goat smell.Even if he went ashore and came to the capital, he had no chance to steal mutton.Now that the goat is no longer around, and eating mutton is popular in the capital, the smell of mutton is everywhere in the streets, the greedy worms in the stomach of the old Taoist are completely aroused, the stomach and intestines wriggle violently, and it feels like they can eat a whole sheep, the capital has opened them up. A new taste bud perception of mutton.

Jin An understood with a smile, and tied the dog to the stone lion at the door. As a result, the two of them were immediately sent out by the shopkeeper with an apologetic face shortly after entering.

"Daoist Jin'an is really sorry. It's a small business. I hope you understand. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The old Taoist had a sullen expression on his face. What could he do? People refused to do their business, and they were unwilling to earn money. They couldn't buy and sell by force.

If you don't stay here, you have your own place to stay.

The two went to the mutton shop next door, but the result was the same. As soon as they entered, they were sent out by the boss with an apologetic face.

The third case.

The fourth one is like this.

The same is true of the fifth house.

……

The reason is the same, the goat caused a lot of trouble in Yuxian Restaurant, and this matter is related to the Martial Daoist Immortal. It has its own topic and spread quickly. Now almost half of the people in the capital know that the Martial Daoist Immortal is a goat tube Yan, no one dares to do the Jin'an mutton business, because they are afraid that the goat will go crazy and demolish the store.

Martial arts immortals are of course extremely welcome to eat in the store, and they are full of splendor, except for mutton.

It is estimated that after today, everyone in the capital will know that Jin'an is a strict sheep.

There are not many mutton restaurants in other places, and Jin'an can occasionally sneak a few meals. When he came to the capital where mutton is popular, he was blocked by all the merchants in the city. Ann is a kind of irony!
Given Jin An's stubborn personality, he couldn't believe that he couldn't eat a piece of mutton today.

As a result, no one dared to do his mutton business, from restaurants as large as restaurants to haggis noodle stalls on the street, which made Jin An very depressed.

"Boss, what's the matter with this dog? You still won't let us eat haggis noodles. Forget it, don't eat it. Let's go and eat at the next restaurant." The clamor of several diners caught Jin An's attention.

It may be that the grave digging did not eat all night, and it was forced to go out for a walk early in the morning. The old dog was so hungry that his legs were lying on a table, and the dog's nose smelled in front of the newly served noodle bowl. smell it.Those diners put down their bowls and chopsticks to get up and leave, but they didn't get a single bite. They definitely didn't want to take the initiative to pay, and started arguing with the boss.

Jin An, who knew he was wrong, called the boss, and he would pay for the bowls of haggis noodles.

Jin An put down a few pieces of broken silver, and then called the old Taoist priest to sit down, and the two of them ate with glee, their mouths were full of greasy food, not to mention how happy they were.

The boss opened his mouth to speak, and wanted not to do Jin'an business, but seeing that the customers were unwilling to pay, he finally took the money and left silently, as if he hadn't seen anything.

Wang!Wang Wang!

The corner of the old dog's mouth was dragged to the ground, and it kept yelling at the two of them.

Only then did Jin An realize that it was thanks to the old dog that he could eat mutton today, so he asked the boss to cook three more bowls of haggis noodles, one bowl for the dog, and the other two bowls for them, the bowl eaten by the dog Also bought it by the way.

Seeing the boss's hesitation, Jin'an kindly persuaded him, "Eating one bowl is eating, and eating two bowls is also eating. Anyway, we have already eaten haggis noodles. Boss, why are you struggling with money? It's not that we don't want to eat noodles. Money. As long as you don’t talk about it today, I won’t tell you. Heaven knows, the earth knows, you know me, the old Taoist knows, and there will be no fifth person to know…”

Under Jin An's instigation, the boss finally bowed his head to the reality and ordered boiled haggis noodles again.

The final result was that Jin An, the old Taoist priest, and an old dog ate a total of ten bowls of haggis noodles before leaving satisfied.

As soon as the two and the dog left, the boss immediately cleaned up the stall and prepared to set up a stall in another place to avoid the limelight.

After leaving the haggis noodle stall, the old Taoist stared more and more at the dog Jin An was leading: "Little brother, the owner didn't take the initiative to claim it. I think this dog is probably an abandoned stray dog." Dog...how about, let’s not rush to help it find its owner, in fact, it’s not a bad thing to keep it with you, the dog’s nose can just help the criminal investigation department solve the case, so it’s called the criminal dog?”

The old Taoist is Sima Zhaozhi's heart, and everyone knows it.

Jin An didn't point it out either, he neither approved nor denied it, and left with the dog on the leash after eating the haggis noodles.

In the end, Jin An returned to the Criminal Investigation Department with a few cages of xiao long bao and a plate of crystal kueh. The two of them who had already eaten it outside pretended not to have eaten it in front of the goat, and each of them ate another cage of xiao long bao. Bag.

Just when the old Taoist priest's belly was as round as October Huaiti, several horsemen from the palace rushed out, and immediately a eunuch with an imperial edict came straight to the criminal investigation department.

"The imperial decree has arrived, and the Marquis of Shenwu has received the decree. I sympathize with Commander Zhang of the Criminal Investigation Division, who is old, and allow him to return to his hometown and take care of his life. Marquis of Shenwu is holy and unpredictable, and he is specially appointed as the new criminal investigation department Commander and constitutional secretary, in charge of prisons, public security affairs, and supervision of officials. I invite scholars to recruit talents. If I have made meritorious service to the country, why would I hesitate to add officials to the ranks?"

It was the same old eunuch who handed the imperial decree to Jin An with a smile: "Marquis Shenwu still hasn't accepted the decree."

Jin An frowned at first, and then loosened his brows. Emperor Kang Zhao's last words made it clear that he wanted to play with him, and use his reputation as a martial artist to put money on his face.

Jin An did not take the initiative to accept the order, but asked the old Taoist priest to accept the order to express his dissatisfaction, and warned Emperor Kang Zhao not to push his nose on his face, enough is enough.

The old eunuch was very deep in the city, and continued to pass the imperial decree to the old Taoist priest with a smile. He didn't show any abnormality, probably he already knew the content of the imperial decree.

As soon as the old Taoist priest received the decree, the old eunuch took out the second imperial decree: "Marquis Shenwu received the decree. Because of your meritorious service in protecting the country, I specially allow the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera to open a Taoist temple on Xianghuo Street to preach and lecture."

This edict was received by Jin An himself, and the old Taoist was so excited that he kept winking at Jin An. The Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera has been carried forward in Jin An's hands, and it has spread its branches and leaves.

In the eyes of Jin'an and the old Taoists, what about the commander of the criminal investigation department and the secretary of the constitution?

However, the environment is different and the state of mind is different. In the eyes of others, the weight of the second imperial edict cannot be compared with the first imperial edict. The weight of the first imperial edict is enough to cause a shock in the officialdom.

The commander of the criminal investigation department and the constitutional department are equivalent to one person concurrently holding the duties of the criminal inspection department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Kang Zhao is going to re-decentralize and reform the three legal departments, directly touching the The core of certain interest groups in the central government.If it were someone else, he would definitely not be able to sit firmly in this position, and he would inevitably be suppressed by Dali Temple, Yushitai, and the veterans of the imperial court.

"Congratulations to Marquis Shenwu, congratulations to Marquis Shenwu, the Taoism of the five viscera has flourished in your hands!"

"Before coming, His Majesty has told this old servant that the construction of the Taoist Temple of the Five Viscera will be funded by the national treasury, and the Ministry of Industry will be responsible for its supervision. You only need to submit the drawings of the Taoist Temple to the Ministry of Industry, and the construction will start immediately!" The old eunuch Chao Jinan kept congratulating him.
