Wang Shichong believed that he and Yang Su were both meritorious ministers of Pingding Erzhu Ji, and they had more friendship than others, so that when Yang Sucai returned to Chang'an from the eastern capital, he carried two good silk silks that he had saved by frugality and food, and visited Yang Su, intending to join Yang Su, hoping that he would help him increase his official rank.

Unexpectedly, Yang Su's vision was very high, and he didn't look down on a low-born Cao official like Wang Shichong, and he didn't even see him once, so he ordered the servants at home to throw back the two silk horses brought by Wang Shichong to him, and closed the door of his house.

Wang Shichong has no talent in the world, but there is no way to work, and in the past five years, he has to stay in the military department to help his boss do errands, although in the military department more than a dozen and he have the same rank, he is the first in the annual performance number, but no one in the court is difficult to be an official, a full five years have passed, the military department has changed several people from Shangshu to Shilang, but Wang Shichong is still unmoved, as usual to be his five-grade outsider.

It is precisely for this reason that after Wang Shichong heard the news of Yang Guang, the king of Jin, returning to the court, he pulled He Chou, the eunuch of the Taifu, and the two came to visit Yang Guang together, hoping to serve Yang Guang and soar from then on.

At this time, listening to Yang Guang ask himself about the past when he was the head of the Zongxuan Department five years ago, although Wang Shichong still did not know which temple Yang Guang was interested in, but with his brilliant mind and keen sense of smell, he keenly sensed that his previous experience in charge of religious affairs was likely to bring him good luck again, so he got up and hugged his fists and replied: "Back to the prince, the lower officials can still tell on the spot the origin and origin of the abbots in the 138 temples and 76 Taoist temples in the new capital of Chang'an and the old city. But I don't know who the prince wants to ask? ”

Yang Guangfang had already seen Wang Shichong's unashamed kung fu, so he asked tentatively: "There is a Dharma name called to make a fate, do you know which monastery she is now practicing and where she came from?" ”

To his surprise, Wang Shichong replied calmly: "The prince is asking about the former Empress Sima?" Half a year ago, she entered the Wanshanni Temple and became a nun, which was the Dharma name given to her by the deacon of the Mingjing Hall in the Wanshanni Temple. ”

"Then, can you tell me the origin and origin of Mrs. Xinyi?" Because he thought of Sima Luo's special identity, and her renunciation was likely to be well known in Chang'an City, Yang Guang regretted a little and asked Wang Shichong about the origin and origin of the yuan.

"The prince has been out of the town and the state in recent years, and he doesn't know much about the situation in the temples in Chang'an City, and there are some anecdotes among them, and the prince is interested in listening to what the officials have to say." Wang Shi hurriedly seized the opportunity, wanting to show his familiarity with religious affairs in front of Yang Guang.

"At this time, the king has nothing to do, so let's listen to you." Yang Guang nodded.

"The prince just asked about the mind of the lower official, and he is also a strange person in the temples in the old and new cities of Chang'an. According to the lower officials, the original surname of the heart master is Gu, the common name seems to be Gu Paner, born in the Gu family, the head of the four surnames of Jiangzuo, when Emperor Xuan of Southern Chen first ascended to the throne, he took the initiative to marry the previous dynasty and married this Gu Paner to the Ming Emperor of the previous dynasty, and was later named a concubine by the Ming Emperor. As early as soon after the death of Emperor Ming, Gu Paner cut his hair and became a nun, escaped into the empty gate, and entered the Wanshanni Temple to practice, so if you talk about qualifications, the heart of the teacher is much older than the current abbot. At the beginning of the third year of the emperor's reign, the construction of Daxing City was completed, and the queen had intended to adjust her mind to serve as the abbot of Xingshanni Temple in the new capital, but later for unknown reasons, it could not be implemented. The prince also knows that there are hundreds of palace concubines and women of the previous dynasty in the Wanshanni Temple, and the mind master is the head of this group, she refuses to leave the Wanshanni Temple, according to the conjecture of the lower officials, most of them are related to the reluctance to separate from the old people of the previous dynasty. ”

Raising his eyes and seeing that Yang Guang listened with great interest, Wang Shichong couldn't help but be proud, so he searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, picked some people and things that Yang Guang knew and then said: "Also, the prince knows that the Great Solemn Temple, which was the abbot of the Huizhen Monk during his lifetime, has moved from the old city to the new capital, located in the south of the city, and changed its name to be the Great Ci'en Temple. So far, the monk Huilin has not been able to go south to Chang'an, so the position of the abbot of the Great Ci'en Temple has always been vacant, for this reason, the senior monks of the temples in Chang'an, the senior monks are salivating for the position of the abbot of the Great Ci'en Temple. ”

"Wang Shichong, is it too much for you to use words like salivating and fighting openly and secretly to describe the great and virtuous monks?" Yang Guang was quite unhappy when he heard that Wang Shichong was not inferior and had no respect for people in Buddhism, so he interrupted him.

"Lord Wang, you don't know......" Wang Shichong's eyes lit up, and he was excited to continue talking, Yang Guang was already impatient to listen.

"Since you are so interested in the affairs of the temple, and the king of Ming wants to go to Wanshanni Temple, you should accompany this king when you arrive." Because he saw that He Chou, the eunuch of the Taifu, had been silent since he entered the hall, smiling and sitting on the side to listen to Wang Shichong tell him anecdotes in the temple of Chang'an, coaxing himself to be happy, Yang Guang stopped Wang Shichong from continuing to talk in the vernacular, turned to He Chou and asked, "I don't know what great work this king has made in the past few years since he left Chang'an?" ”

He Chou hurriedly got up and left his seat, and replied: "If the prince asks about the masterpiece, the lower official will inevitably feel ashamed, in these years, only the construction of the new capital and the construction of the Guangtong Canal can be called a masterpiece, but they are all from the hands of the prince's right concubine Yu Wenkai, compared with him, the little things that the lower officials have done over the years are really not worth mentioning. ”

"This king still remembers the good story when you rushed to make the Persian brocade robe overnight, and there is an inquiry, this king has led the army to fight with the Turks in Hebei in recent years, and found that the leather armor and soft stomach worn by my Great Sui soldiers are not enough to prevent the bow and crossbow attacks of the Turkic iron cavalry, even if they form a phalanx to meet the enemy, they often suffer heavy casualties, I don't know what good strategy the government supervisor can teach me?"

"Back to the prince, today the two of us brought a brocade robe for the prince, in terms of its material and workmanship, it is not inferior to the Persian brocade robe of the year." Wang Shichong was the first to curry favor with Yang Guang.

"Oh? Is this brocade robe also from the hand of He Fujian? Yang Guang glanced at the brocade robe that Wang Shichong took from the hand of the entourage servant and tried to show it to himself, but still looked at He Hou and asked.
