It's the end of the year in a blink of an eye, Xiao Yao has been grounded by Xiao Moke for two months, although he has never been out, everything is still under Xiao Yao's control.

Zu Yuan with a pound of white sugar from Xingwang Chen Shuling swindled a full 5,000 taels of silver, and then speed up the construction progress, a month ago, the general sugar mill has been grandly started, white sugar as soon as it is produced is famous all over the world, but also by the emperor as a tribute!

With the exclusive operation of white sugar, General Motors Commercial Bank is not only exclusively for the royal family, but also exported to Zhou and Qi countries, and has shown that it will become the second largest commercial house in Chen State.

Zu Yuan also took advantage of the momentum to let the iron workshop enter Jinling, preparing to break the monopoly of Yinhai Commercial Bank on ironware, and also bought restaurants and brothels in Jinling, and pulled Chen Bo to banquet Jinling celebrities, famous families, Zu Yuan suddenly became a figure of the year in Jinling!

Yinhai Commercial Bank was suppressed by the limelight of General Commercial Bank, and now even the basic salt and iron business has been intervened, which made the crown prince Chen Shubao furious and wanted to sprinkle his anger on Xiao Yao, and the abbot of Baoliang kept sending people to the Xiao family to invite, but they were all politely refused.

Since Xu Miao and Xiao Yao had an in-depth exchange, they were completely impressed by his omniscient insight and eloquent writing, so Xu Miao came to the door every day and pestered Xiao Yao to tell her all kinds of strange things and all kinds of crooked jokes!

This led to Xiao Wuhua's jealousy, guarding Xiao Yao at all times, and following the toilet, for fear that if he was not careful, Xiao Yao would be taken away by this girlfriend!

So in the past two months, Xiao Yao has been surrounded by two beauties every day, and he has lived a happy life: when he gets up in the morning, he first performs a set of knife techniques taught by Gao Yuan in front of Xiao Wuhua, his vigorous body, the devil's pace, and the knife skills are also vigorous, and the blade hisses when it splits the air, which makes Xiao Wuhua's eyes full of worship!

When Xu Miao came to visit at noon, she told all kinds of jokes to make the two beauties laugh, and then made all kinds of desserts and snacks as afternoon tea, so that the two little beauties were about to eat their little bellies!

At night, he relied on letters to keep in touch with the outside world, looked at the various reports sent by Zu Yuan and Zhou Chao, and guided them remotely.

After being grounded for two months, Xiao Yao's popularity in Jinling City has been replaced by Zu Yuan, so on the first day of the lunar month, Xiao Moke announced that he had lifted the ban on him and wanted to take him out: the whole family went to Guangzhai Temple to worship incense and worship Buddha!

For Bao Liang's warm invitation, Xiao Moke couldn't always refuse, after all, Bao Liang Monk was a great monk of Chen Guo, and he was the prince's teacher, and his status was noble, so after Xiao Yao's limelight passed, he decided to take him to visit the master in person.

Finally able to go out, of course Xiao Yao was very happy, otherwise he would have to forget what Jinling was like, but when he heard that he was going to Guangzhai Temple, Xiao Yao couldn't be happy, it was the enemy's territory!

Xiao Moke had already spoken, and he couldn't help but go, so Xiao Yao didn't dare to be careless, and was fully armed: an armed belt around his waist, a revolver with a spare bullet on it, and a dagger on his waist!

Xiao Moke rode a big horse and led everyone in front, followed by Xiao Shilian, who was unwilling to say a word to Xiao Yao all day, while Xiao Yao was wearing a gray coat and riding a horse, talking to Xiao Wuhua next to her, which made her laugh from time to time.

The family came to Guangxiao Temple, Bao Liang had already sent a little monk to wait at the door, usually the incense is strong in the light of the temple today but it seems rare to be clean, it seems that Bao Liang has implemented the flow of people, and the idle people have been driven out.

Xiao Moke, who received such a grand reception, immediately dismounted and saluted: "The little master is polite, your temple is so quiet today, is it because of Xiao's arrival that others cannot enter the temple to worship the Buddha?" That's really Xiao's sin! ”

The little monk returned the salute and smiled: "General Xiao is too worried, today happens to be a Zen meeting held by the masters of other temples and Master Bao Liang, so no idle people are allowed to enter in the morning, and General Xiao is the abbot's distinguished guest, so he ordered the little monk to wait here!" ”

"Ask the Zen Conference? I don't even know about such a grand event, sin and sin! Which masters are coming? Xiao Moke said respectfully.

"In fact, this is just a private exchange between the masters, there are Master Daoming of Jiming Temple, Master Baoming of Jozan Temple, Master Hongzhi of Linggu Temple, and some pilgrims are here, but it is also a rare event!" The little monk also looked a little excited.

Hearing that almost all the famous masters in Jinling had come, Xiao Moke was a little humble and said, "I'm afraid it will disturb the communication of the masters, or let's visit again another day." ”

The little monk shook his head and said, "Master specially instructed me to take General Xiao in, and if General Xiao is interested, you can also participate in the Zen together!" ”

For the era when the whole people believe in Buddhism, so many masters gather together, no less than the shock of the top ten modern traffic stars participating in a party at the same time.

Xiao Moke immediately nodded in agreement, took his family to respectfully follow the little monk in, and specially instructed Xiao Yao to say: "You see that Master Baoliang is highly respected and still receives us so ceremoniously, you have to respect the master, and you can't offend again!" ”

Xiao Yao nodded in agreement, but thought in his heart: Of course I won't deliberately offend him, but if he takes the initiative, then don't blame me for being unkind! Zu Yuan told him that now the general trading bank is in a good situation, so that Yinhai commercial bank has been suppressed repeatedly, and I believe that the prince will not be indifferent.

When everyone came to the venue, they saw Bao Liang sitting kindly on the pulpit in the middle, surrounded by a group of monks and pilgrims in robes, who were communicating with each other with questions and answers.

Seeing Xiao Moke and others coming in, Bao Liang also nodded and smiled, and when he saw Xiao Yao who was following him also come in, Bao Liang's eyes lit up, revealing a hint of pride, and he quickly recovered as before, and continued to exchange views on Buddhist scriptures with other monks.

The exchange of monks is all about those Buddhist scriptures, how to understand this sentence, how to do that sentence, but Xiao Moke's family is fascinated, and even Xiao Wuhua, who is usually very arrogant, also listens to it with relish!

Xiao Yao thought to himself: This is probably the power of faith!

Everyone present listened attentively, only Xiao Yao yawned and fell asleep, and the treasure on the pulpit smiled when he saw him like this: "Why is Xiao Xiaoyou so listless, do you think this Zen conference is boring or do you not agree with the opinions of the masters?" ”

One sentence quieted the originally lively venue, and everyone's eyes were attracted to Xiao Yao: Where did the kid come from, he actually felt that such a grand event was boring!

"Presumably, this is the young man with Huigen that Master Bao Liang often mentions, and the master can let him participate in asking Zen, and he really values this son very much!" An old monk smiled at Bao Liang.

"Young and inexperienced, I'm afraid I can't understand our Zen language, right?" Another monk also quipped.

"No, no, this is General Xiao's son, talented and eloquent, the article of the day, I also lost to him, haha, Xiao Xiaoyou, it is better to participate in Zen and say a few words!" Bao Liang was named.

Do you want me to say a few words to someone who has never touched a Buddhist scripture? This is obviously an active provocation, and you want to deliberately make me make a fool of myself to get back to the field that I lost before?

Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Moke with an innocent face, Xiao Moke could only get up and apologize: "Please forgive me, master, it is already our supreme honor to hear the teachings of the masters with our own ears, children are ignorant, how can they join the exchanges of the masters!" ”

"Haha, General Xiao is polite, Xiao Xiaoyou is a person with wise roots, I can't be mistaken, if you can say such a wonderful sentence as 'a big belly can tolerate things in the world', you will definitely be qualified to participate in our Q&A!" Bao Liang didn't let Xiao Yao go.

If you have the ability not to pretend to be forced, the sky will thunder!

Xiao Yao believed in this sentence, so he pretended to have an ignorant expression, blinked his eyes and asked, "Masters, Shiro has not read any books, I want to ask about this Zen conference, what is Zen?" ”
