Jinyi Night Walk

The Beiji Pavilion in Jinling City, on the mountain peak at the northeast end, is the Jiming Temple.

This temple was originally called Tongtai Temple, and it was built during the period of Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty. Large-scale temples were built.Unfortunately, in less than 20 years, the temple was struck by lightning and most of it burned down.

After Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, the reckless emperor who had been a young monk for three years drank water and thought about the source, and ordered to rebuild it, which was renamed Jiming Temple.Originally Jiming Temple was very popular, but after Zhu Yunfen ascended the throne, this rebellious child opposed his grandfather everywhere. Not only did the court system undergo a drastic change, but his grandfather worshiped Buddha while he suppressed it.

Ordinary people don't care about those, Buddhist believers still come to offer incense and rituals, but the officials and gentry in Jinling City have great fortunes, but they can't ignore the emperor's opinion, especially the opinion of Dr. Fang Da who hates Buddhism very much, so the cock crows The temple became much deserted, and the big incense masters stopped coming easily, and the money for the sesame oil was much less.

Today is a good day. Early in the morning, the abbot of Jiming Temple, Monk Wan Kong, heard that at the invitation of the envoys from Japan and Shanhou, the Ministry of Rites would lead the envoys from the country to visit Jiming Temple and pay homage to the Buddha. .Monk Wankong was overjoyed, and quickly asked the Zhike monk to arrange everything, and the little monks swept around to clean up the Jiming Temple.

Meng Fusheng, the servant of the Mudagger Department, led Mitsuo Shimadzu and He Tianyang to Jiming Temple. Monk Wan Kong dressed up in a red cassock and a Pilu hat to welcome him. Make a tour of Jiming Temple.

In order to welcome the distinguished envoys of the two countries, Monk Wan Kong made careful arrangements to isolate some important areas and prohibited ordinary pilgrims from entering, and led the envoys of the two countries into the Mahavira Hall. He Tianyang and Pingnu followed suit and invited sticks of incense to worship Buddha together.

After the incense, Wan Kong led them to visit the temple together, stopping from time to time to explain to them in person.When visiting the Yanzhi Well, Wan Kong pointed out: "This well is originally called Jingyang Well, also known as the Well of Disgrace. Back then, when the Sui soldiers went south, Chen Empress Shubao and his concubine Zhang Lihua hid in this well, but they were killed by Sui soldiers. Found alive.", "Nani?" Mitsuo Shimadzu was very interested when he heard it, he hurriedly moved forward, and looked into the well, but unfortunately there was no beauty in the well, only a ghost-like thing was illuminated , startled him, Ding Qing saw that it was him.

At this moment, the Zhike monk who had been robbed of his business by the abbot suddenly led a group of people here, pointing and smiling all the way.Seeing Wan Kong, Bai Mei frowned and immediately became displeased.He hurriedly confessed his crime to Meng Shilang and others, and hurriedly greeted him with his hands folded.

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother is accompanying the Minister of Rites and two foreign envoys to visit the temple. Didn't I tell you, other pilgrims..." Before Wan Kong finished speaking, Zhike Monk greeted him excitedly, and whispered: "Senior Brother Ah, this person is not small, this is the little princess of Zhongshan Palace!"

"Dan"

As soon as he heard that it was a princess, the displeasure on Master Wan Kong's face was instantly wiped away, Ding Qing looked around, and as expected, surrounded by the crowd, it was a young girl with a double bun, wearing a lake green dress. She wore a narrow-sleeved blouse, and an emerald green underskirt, with a thin belt that wrapped around her waist in a very slender and slender curve.

No makeup, no jewelry, noodles in clear soup, but there is a kind of extravagance rushing towards his face. The little girl stared at him with a pair of wonderful eyes. There was a friendly and peaceful smile on his face.As a result, the honored guests received by the abbot master in person added another guest: the little princess of the Zhongshan Prince's Mansion.

The nine-story pagoda, the seven-story pagoda, and the ten-faced golden Buddha, this Jiming Temple was visited for most of the time. Xu Miaojin, the little princess of the Zhongshan Prince's Mansion, and Pingnv, the queen's concubine of the Queen of the Mountain, hit it off and became very good friends.In the hall of Guanyin, the great master sits facing north, and the couplet on the gate of the hall reads: "Ask the Bodhisattva why he sits upside down, and lament that all living beings refuse to turn back."

Xu Ming'er smiled like a flower, and took Ping Nu's hand and said, "Sister Ping Nu, it is a great fate that you and I met today. Why don't you and I become sisters with different surnames and Jin Lan in front of Master Guanyin?" That's great." Today's encounter was actually at Xu Ming'er's request.She wants to get acquainted with Pingnv, the concubine of the queen of the mountain, and marry Jinlan, and she will have the opportunity to associate with her in the future. If Xu Huizuzhen and Fang Xiaoru reach a cooperation, there will be more chances for Xia Xun to secretly send her away .

Xu Ming'er's worries are not impossible. Fang Xiaoru has the trust of the emperor, but what he lacks is the foundation in the court, while Xu Huizu has a huge network and strong foundation in the court and the opposition, what he lacks is the favor of the emperor like Fang Xiaoru , if two people form an alliance, it will be of great benefit to each other.This does not need to be a mature politician, as long as Fang Xiaoru has a little foresight, he will not reject Xu Huizu's kindness.

Once the alliance is concluded, Fang Xiaoru will get an extremely powerful ally and great help. All he needs to pay is just a disciple who is married to the Xu family, and his power will be further consolidated. His ideals and his ideals There will be a greater possibility of carrying out his ambitions, will he not agree?

It is related to the lifelong happiness of a daughter's family, Xia Xun dare not be careless.He has now realized that it is not him who controls the general situation of the world.But the fate of those who control the general situation of the world is controlled by him to a certain extent. He can't guarantee that the wings of his little butterfly will not affect Fang Xiaoru and Xu Huizu, and thus interfere with Xu Ming'er's future.

Ping Nu had already received Xia Xun's instructions, and she immediately said happily after hearing the words: "My sister and I became friends when we first met, and I thought so too, so I followed my sister, and asked Master Guanyin to be a witness for you and me, and we will become Jinlan sisters." The two of them happily bowed down in front of Master Guanyin, and when they got up, Monk Wan Kong came forward to congratulate him with a smile on his face, and the second daughter returned the gift with a smile." Inadvertently, Xu Ming'er's wonderful eyes fixed on Xia Xun's face. Affirmed, the tip of the brow raised slightly, revealing a hint of color in her delicacy.

It's the eighth day of Mochou's poetry reception, and the gangsters who spread "rumors" have never been caught. Ying Tianfu Yin and the chief officer of Wucheng Bingma Division were summoned into the palace by Zhu Yunfen every three days to reprimand them. When a person left the palace in disgrace, he wanted to search and arrest the people, making chickens fly and dogs jumping around. Apart from further expanding the influence of King Yan's secret spies, it was useless.

People who do business in the market are still quite worried. They don’t know when the police from Yingtianfu or the patrolling soldiers from Wucheng Bingmasi will come here like crazy for interrogation and inspection. Treasure shop" is much quieter.

His shop is located in an alley next to the corner gate of Gongyuan, which is not very eye-catching. Once the corner gate is opened, there is an academy inside. When the students go out of the corner gate, there is a very elegant picture of Suihan Sanyou on the opposite side. "Plaque" and walked in, the fragrance of ink hit your face, it was Zhang Jun's Four Treasures of the Study shop.

The weather is getting colder, and the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is damp and cold.It's not terribly freezing, you'll never feel the slicing wind" but the damp, cold air" is sticky and unbearably sticky.

A "scholar" wearing a blue cotton jacket walked into "Song, Bamboo and Plum" in this cold and humid weather.

"My lord, look, this inkstone is fine in mud and light yellow in color." The shape is novel, and the decoration is simple and elegant. Look, the ellipse on the forehead of the inkstone is the inkstone pool. It is so convenient. If you buy it, I will give you a piece of lacquer He'er, what do you think of this square jade-colored lacquer box?" The scholar who was shopping was obviously a poor scholar, wearing thin clothes, and his face turned pale from the cold in the cold weather. Zhang Jun fooled him. Finally, he gritted his teeth and took out the bunch of copper coins that were sweating in his hands.Zhang Jun quickly packed it for him, and the scholar walked away holding the inkstone box like a treasure.At this time, the scholar in the blue quilted robe behind came forward with a smile.

Zhang Jun smiled and said: "Young master, what do you want to buy, the four treasures of the study, we have everything in this shop..."

The handsome young master smiled slightly and said, "I don't buy the Four Treasures of the Study, I just want to print something."

Zhang Jun was stunned, and replied: "I'm sorry, the shop only sells the four treasures of the study, and does not print anything.", "Hehe, it's just a few simple articles. It's not worth engraving a single edition. The Yinfang Bookstore will not accept this business." , I think your store is still free, do you really not want to accept this business?" The young man said, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and gently piled it forward.

Zhang Jun picked it up and looked at it, his face immediately changed color. The crumpled piece of paper was the poster that Mo Chou Poetry Club distributed that night.On the opposite side, the young master stopped smiling, his thin lips were pursed, and there was a fierce murderous look in his eyes.

Zhang Jun yelled loudly, raised his foot and kicked all the desks flying out. The scholar was already prepared, so he dodged sideways, and one desk crashed into the opposite wall and fell apart. At the same time, A few burly men from Jinyiwei had rushed in the door, Zhang Jun took a step back, stretched his waist, and pulled out a narrow-edged sword from under the shelf where the Four Treasures of the Study were placed.

The handsome scholar took two steps back, put his hands behind his back, and said indifferently: "I have to live!", "I heard that "Song Zhumei, something happened!" "," What's the matter, Boss Zhang belongs to King Yan? "

"The imperial court is rebellious? Didn't realize it. He is quite kind. Didn't he say that the soldiers under King Yan's command are all barbarians outside the Great Wall, and all of them are evil spirits?" The first news came from Lane Two small businessmen passed by, and then many people who watched the excitement ran in from outside the alley, whispering and discussing one by one.

Soon, they saw Zhang Jun, bloodied and tied up, being escorted out of the "Song, Bamboo and Plum" Four Treasures of the Study shop. They could faintly see a few people inside the shop searching like a house being demolished.

Zhang Jun was captured alive, he was being escorted dejectedly, and walked out of the alley step by step. More and more people gathered on the side of the road, and no one noticed that a peddler selling "Zhuangyuan Cake" was holding him on his shoulders. The hanging basket was aimed at Zhang Jun quietly, and there was a small hole in the basket, but who would notice him...! ~!
