Back to the early Tang Dynasty to be a fairy

Chapter 395 Don't mess with the Buddha and Taoist affairs!

Zhao Yanren is an unremarkable little official of the Sinong Temple in the Tang Dynasty. Like other civil servants in Chang'an, he lives a life of clocking in at work and fishing at Qinlou and Chuguan after get off work every day.

It's not that Zhao Yanren is corrupt, but that his family background is really solid.His father, Zhao Wenruo, served as governor of Yizhou during the Sui Dynasty, and his uncle Zhao Wenchang served as a bodyguard for Emperor Wu of Zhou Yu Wenyong when he was young, and served as the prime minister of Taifu Temple during the Kaihuang period of the Great Sui Dynasty. In charge of the royal treasury and cashiers, it can be said that they have a high position and weight.

However, glory is a thing of the past after all. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Zhao Yanren and the others were replaced by upstarts like warriors.

If it were a different person, I'm afraid there would be resentment in my heart.

But because Zhao Yanren is a devout Buddhist, he has no other resistance other than retaliatory consumption, and he didn't even complain when he went to Pingkang Fang to Duhua Miss Sister.

Today, Zhao Yanren was very tired after having a serious discussion with a young lady in Pingkangfang about the "dual cultivation of life and soul" in Buddhism. As soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell asleep within a few seconds.

In a trance, Zhao Yanren felt himself sitting up from the bed, walked to the yard involuntarily, and saw an old man in green clothes.

Although the old man's face was a bit blurred in the dream and he couldn't see clearly, Zhao Yanren in the dream immediately recognized that this was his father, Zhao Wenruo, and he hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground.

"It's my son's fault that the laboring father came to urge me. Tomorrow, my son must go to a Buddhist temple..."

When he said this, Zhao Yanren froze for a moment.

No, it seems that I just went to the Buddhist temple to do a dojo for my father two days ago, why is my father coming to remind me in a dream now?
"Cough cough..."

The old man in green who stood in front of Zhao Yanren coughed twice, and said with some embarrassment.

"That... the matter of the dojo has been received by my father. It is not because of this that my father is looking for you today."

Although Zhao Yanren in the dream was in a daze, he subconsciously asked a question.

"whats the matter?"

"that……"

The old man in Tsing Yi coughed twice, then continued.

"You know about the assassination of the imperial servant Zhang Daoyuan two days ago!"

"Well..."

Zhao Yanren nodded involuntarily.

"Know!"

"After Zhang Daoyuan was assassinated, Daozu Taishang Laojun promoted him to be the city god of Xijing because of Zhang Daoyuan's cleverness and integrity..."

"Father, you said that Zhang Daoyuan is now in charge of the Yin Division of the entire Chang'an City, how is this possible!"

Before Zhao Wenruo, the old man in green, finished speaking, Zhao Yanren in his dream interrupted him in a daze.

"When you and your uncle were brought back to life by the Yin Division because of reciting the "Diamond Sutra", didn't you say that the Yin Division in Chang'an was managed by Yan Luo?"

"that……"

After hearing Zhao Yanren's words, Zhao Wenruo's mouth twitched.

What can he say, can it be said that their brothers were actually deceived by the monk?
However, as a veteran in the officialdom, Zhao Wenruo quickly found the reason.

"That's right. At that time, the underworld in Chang'an was indeed managed by King Yan Luo, but that was because there were no magistrates in Chang'an at that time, so Yan Luo took care of it temporarily. There are magistrates here, so Yan Luo will not care about the underworld here in Chang'an."

"Is that so?"

Probably because of the relationship in the dream, Zhao Yanren felt that his brain was struggling to turn.

"What about the Buddha, did the Buddha just let the Taishang Laojun take away Chang'an's Yin Division?"

"Why so many questions?"

After hearing Zhao Yanren's words, Zhao Wenruo was instantly furious and spitting at Zhao Yanren.

"How dare I meddle in the matter between the Buddha and the Daoist, you just need to remember to Aye, Zhang Daoyuan will be the City God of Chang'an City from now on, and Zhang Daoyuan will be in charge of the entire Yin Division of Chang'an! "

"Yes Yes!"

After seeing Zhao Wenruo's anger, Zhao Yanren immediately bowed his hands and replied in fear.

"The child knows, what should the child do?"

"Now Zhang Daoyuan, the City God of Xijing, does not have a temple yet, so he temporarily lives in Qingdu Temple. You will go to Qingdu Temple tomorrow to offer incense to Zhang Chenghuang, and say that you are willing to donate Wanguan to help Zhang Chenghuang build a temple in Dongshi. I hope Zhang For the sake of our piousness, Chenghuang asks Zhang Chenghuang to think about it and promote Aye to be a clerk..."

At the beginning, Zhao Yanren was still listening carefully, but when he heard his father Zhao Wenruo say that he would be a civil servant under Zhang Daoyuan, he instantly felt incredible.

"Father, don't we believe in Buddhism? Is it not good for you to become a civil servant under Zhang Daoyuan, a lackey of the Taoist sect?"

After hearing these words, Zhao Wenruo jumped up violently again in an instant.

"What kind of daoist dog does not run a dog! Naiweng has already said, let's not meddle in the matter of Buddha and Daozu!"

"Yes Yes Yes……"

After seeing his father getting angry again, Zhao Yanren immediately bowed and apologized repeatedly.

"Aye, calm down, Aye, calm down, the child will go to Qingdu to watch tomorrow morning."

"It's almost..."

After hearing his son's words, Zhao Wenruo was finally satisfied. He stroked his beard and mentioned his son again.

"Must be as soon as possible. As far as Aye knows, the position of this civil official is very rare now. Even if we donate the [-] incense sticks, it is still uncertain whether I will be able to become Aye! Remember, you must remember !"

As he said that, Zhao Yanren saw his father grabbing his wrist with his hands and pushing hard, and then he fell down involuntarily...

"what!"

After a cry of surprise, Zhao Yanren turned over and sat up naked beside Miss Pingkangfang, panting heavily.

"It turned out to be a dream..."

Halfway through the speech, Zhao Yanren's gaze fell on a blue-purple handprint on his wrist.

"No, this is not a dream, Aye has really been here!"

Just when Zhao Yanren was entrusted with dreams by his father, in other corners of Chang'an City, there were still many ghosts who were also trying to find ways to entrust dreams to their relatives who were still in the world.

Although not every ghost can be as arrogant as Zhao Wenruo, directly donating [-] yuan, but most relatives of ghosts can afford such things as going to Qingdu Temple to burn incense sticks for Master Zhang Chenghuang.

So when Zhao Yanren left Pingkangfang early the next morning, went back to his home and transferred ten thousand guan, and then came to Qingdu temple, he found that there was already a sea of ​​people, and the team waiting for the incense came directly from the Taoist temple. squeezed out the door.

Among the crowd, Zhao Yanren saw an acquaintance of his at a glance.

"Brother Wen Ce..."

Zhao Yanren looked at a somewhat thin scribe standing in the line with surprise on his face.

"Didn't you say that you abide by the scriptures and abide by the law and don't enter evil places? Why are you here?"

The scribe turned his head, looked at Zhao Yanren, and was stunned.

"Brother Yan, how could such an upright believer like you enter a Taoist temple?"

"that……"

Zhao Yanren opened his mouth and stammered.

"My father entrusted Mengyan with saying that Zhang Daoyuan and Brother Zhang became the master of the Chang'an Yin Division, and that I usually have...acquaintance with Brother Daoyuan, so I made a special trip here...Brother Wen Ce, why are you here?"

"Ha ha……"

Scribe froze for a moment, then laughed dryly.

"So...so, like you, Brother Yan, you know that Brother Daoyuan has become the Lord of the Underworld, so I came to congratulate you!"

"..."

When these people came to Qingdu Temple to offer incense to Zhang Daoyuan, Kong Qing, who was in charge of Qingdu Temple, was chatting with the third lady Li Xiuning at the mansion of Princess Pingyang.

"So, Xiao Qingwei, you came to me because you wanted Aye to decree that Zhang Daoyuan and Fu Yi be canonized, and then build a temple for them!"

At this time, Li Xiuning was wearing women's clothing which was rare, leaning back on the pillow, resting her cheek with one hand, looking up and down at Kong Qing with a pair of big eyes, with a half-smile on her face.

"Shouldn't this kind of thing be written by your Taishi Bureau, and then Aye should approve it?"

"Pindao will naturally submit a letter from the Taishi Bureau, but the problem is that most saints will leave this kind of matter to the Chongxuan Bureau for discussion,"

Kong Qing shook the white jade whisk in his hand, and said helplessly.

"Third lady, you also know Fu Yi and Zhang Daoyuan. Do you think those people in the Chongxuan Department, especially the ten great virtues of Buddhism, will agree to set up temples for them?"

"This is indeed..."

Li Xiuning raised her head, as if thinking about what Fu Yi did back then, she couldn't help turning around, covered her mouth with her sleeve and let out a chuckle.

"It is indeed impossible for the Chongxuan Department to admit that Fu Yi and the others have become gods."

As Li Xiuning turned her body, her mature curves instantly fell into Kong Qing's eyes, and Kong Qing blinked silently.

Huh?It seems that San Niangzi's chest is two points higher, what is the situation...

"This matter is not difficult for me."

After a chuckle, Li Xiuning turned around again and looked at Kong Qing with a smile.

"But Xiao Qingwei, tell me, why should I help you with this favor?"

"This one……"

Kong Qing blinked and said tentatively.

"Then what does the third lady want the poor to do?"

"Ok!"

Li Xiuning put down her hands and acted indifferent.

"I really don't have anything in particular that I want. How about it? It will be Bengong's birthday in a few days. That day, Xiao Qingwei, come to Bengong to have a drink with Bengong and chat for a while!"

After hearing this kind of condition, Kong Qing immediately agreed without hesitation.

"It's San Niangzi's birthday, I'm going to accompany you now."

"it is good!"

The corner of Li Xiuning's mouth twitched slightly, and she looked up at Kong Qing.

"Then we've made a deal, don't miss the appointment then..."

Kong Qing patted his chest and said firmly.

"Of course not!"

……

Just after Kong Qing left, with the sound of the door, a woman with an overpowering appearance pushed the door in from the outside of the flower hall.

"Your Highness, the slave family has already prepared what you want for you!"

　The story of Zhao Yanren's father Zhao Wenruo and uncle Zhao Wenchang's two brothers "returning to life" written in this chapter is very interesting, because Mengxin doesn't want to count the words, so it is written here.

　　First of all, in the early years of Kaihuang, Zhao Yanren’s father, Zhao Wenruo, woke up seven days after his death and said that when he was tried in the Yin Division after his death, he was released by the Yin Division because he had recited the "Diamond Sutra" for many years. , and extended his life by one century, but because he had the crime of eating meat, he was punished with five nails on his head and limbs...

　　This incident was a sensation at the time, and many officials even asked Zhao Wenruo to confirm the nail marks on his hands and feet. Later, because of this incident, he was considered an orthodox Buddhist with a noble character and was promoted.

　　So in the 11th year of Kaihuang, Zhao Yanren's uncle Zhao Wenchang also came back to life. I don't know if it was because his official position was relatively high, so it was the king of the underworld who tried Zhao Wenchang. Similarly, he also Because of reciting the "Diamond Sutra" for many years, his life was extended.

　　In his report to Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Zhao Wenchang, who came back from the dead, said in a serious manner that Emperor Wu of Zhou Yu Wenyong was suffering in hell because of the extermination of Buddha, so he specifically asked him to ask Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty Yang Jian to help him do a dojo to repent.

　　To make a digression, Zhao Wenchang also said in his report that he saw Lord Wu'an Baiqi in hell, the god of killing who was soaked in a cesspit by King Yama as punishment.

　　After Yang Jian saw Zhao Wenchang's report, he felt very sympathetic to what happened to Emperor Wu of Zhou, and specially ordered to pay for Emperor Wu of Zhou to transcribe the Vajra Prajna Sutra per person, and set up a three-day grand sacrifice...

　　Hahahaha!
