Fang Mingyuan and Master Yuanzhen were very casual, and couldn't help but laugh: "Now let the monks go to feed, and the world will be in chaos." ”

Yuan Zhen pointed at Fang Mingyuan, shook his head and smiled. Zhu Huaijing didn't understand just now, and he didn't know if Yuan Zhen was talking about whether the shepherdesss fed Shakyamuni her own milk, or the milk of cows or other animals. But thinking that this monk and nun are in the same temple, who dares to guarantee that there is no time for monks to breastfeed?

After a few jokes, Master Yuanzhen shook his head, as if he was deep, and said, "Director Zhu just said that the relationship between Buddhism and the world does have some truth. But in another sense, Buddhism is now too much influenced by the world. Let's just say that I should practice here quietly, but ** give me a positive treatment. Speaking of treatment, it is a little uncomfortable to give a director level, because I am still the vice chairman of the Municipal Federation of Industry and Commerce. I still don't understand why our Buddhism is classified as part of the Federation of Industry and Commerce. Even if it is zoned to the Federation of Industry and Commerce, then I should not just be at the level of a director, but at the level of a deputy director. Of course, I'm not saying that I have to make it clear that I am a deputy director-general, just talking. To say, in other places, like me, I have already joined the Standing Committee of the CPPCC. ”

Fang Mingyuan said: "I can report this problem to Mayor Pi." ”

Yuan Zhen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Thank you, Director Fang." That's not what it means. ”

But Zhu Huaijing can clearly see that Yuan Zhen is actually showing off his director-level, and he also wants to implement the deputy director-level treatment. According to the logic of this monk, if he really enters the Standing Committee of the CPPCC next time, won't he think about clarifying the treatment of the deputy municipal level? If you become a member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, you may be elected as a director of the National Buddhist Association, and you may even be elected to the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. If this continues, maybe he will want to be the leader of the country one day. The more Zhu Huaijing pondered it, the more he felt that this thing was funny. He wanted to try Yuanzhen's mind again, so he said, "Master Yuanzhen doesn't have to be modest. As far as I know, in Chinese history, there is a precedent for the government to confer official titles on famous monks and great temples. The abbot of Shaolin Temple was also awarded the title of General by the imperial court. Yuan Zhen smiled, and said this and this vaguely. Zhu Huaijing now understands Yuanzhen's intentions better.

After chatting for a while, the two took their leave. Yuan Zhen still walked in front with Fang Mingyuan, Zhu Huaijing walked in the middle, and the little monk followed. Zhu Huaijing thought that this little monk was afraid that he was walking in front of Yuanzhen, right? It's equivalent to a secretary in the secular world. The lights in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall were brighter, and Zhu Huaijing suddenly found that the root of Yuanzhen's left ear was sunk in, like a trace of a knife wound. Immediately he remembered the little finger of his left hand, and guessed that this circle was really a mundane one, and he repented and escaped into the empty door. Out of the temple gate, Fang Mingyuan asked Master Yuanzhen to stay, and Yuanzhen must send the two to the car.

Before getting into the car, Yuan Zhen shook hands with Zhu Fang and the two again and again, and even said that it was hard.

Zhu Huaijing felt a little interesting, so he asked about the roots of Master Yuanzhen. Fang Mingyuan said: "This circle really has some origins. He was originally from the north, and when he was a child, he was the most naughty person in the place, and he couldn't sleep well at night without fighting. When he was eighteen years old, he had a stab on his head and a section of his finger, and he almost went to prison. I heard that he met a monk to guide him and shaved him to become a monk. Later, he went to a Buddhist college to study Buddhism, and after completing his bachelor's degree and pursuing a master's degree. Last time, he said that he was studying for a doctorate at this time, which is equivalent to our on-the-job graduate students as cadres. Don't underestimate him, when you and I were still section chiefs, Yuanzhen would have enjoyed department-level treatment a long time ago. ”

Zhu Huaijing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He asked again: "You said that Yuan is really a northerner, why can't you hear the northern accent?" ”

Fang Mingyuan said: "This person is smart, he will learn Jingdu as soon as he learns, so it will be easier, so that he can deal with the donors." ”

Zhu Huaijing suddenly remembered Yuan Xiaoqi again. Yuan Xiaoqi is also a mysterious figure, I haven't seen him for a long time, and there is no news of him. Only occasionally I heard that he is now traveling all over the world, but somehow he still makes money, not long ago he returned to his hometown, and donated more than 100,000 yuan to the primary school in his village. Mayor Pi seems to like to like dealing with masters like Yuan Xiaoqi and Master Yuanzhen.

"Hey, Mirror, I remember something. This time Yuan Xiaoqi is back, I can't find you, your mobile phone is turned off. Mayor Pi invited him to dinner, and wanted to invite you to accompany him. ”

When Fang Mingyuan suddenly said this, Zhu Huaijing was really startled. It's not that Mayor Pi didn't go to invite him, but he suddenly felt that there must be some mysterious force between heaven and earth that controls people's thinking. He was thinking about Yuan Xiaoqi, why did Fang Mingyuan talk about Yuan Xiaoqi? Is there any strange force in the dark that secretly communicates with people's souls, or is there some kind of induction between people? I remember that I was silently humming something, but I didn't hum it, and someone sang this song right away. In this way, people's mental activities are always felt by others. Officialdom always acts in the heart, and others can always sense it, which is terrible.

"Really? In this way, China already has Zhang Baosheng, Yan Xin, and Zhang Hongbao, do we really want to produce a Yuan Xiaoqi in Jingdu? Zhu Huaijing said.

Fang Mingyuan turned his head, looked at Zhu Huaijing, and said, "What's wrong?" This Yuan Xiaoqi was introduced to Mayor Pi by you, and now listening to what you mean, you seem to be disapproving. ”

"No, no, no. I'm just talking about things. Zhu Huaijing covered up.

When you enter the downtown area, you will see flowers in front of you. There is no noise in the car, but the thick traffic and flattering neon lights still make people feel the hustle and bustle of the city. Zhu Huaijing remembered that when he first came to Jingdu, he was in a bad mood one day and went to Jingshan Temple alone, not to worship anything, but to be quiet. As soon as he stepped into the Jingshan Mountain, where the shadows of the trees were sparse, he immediately felt that his heart was as calm as water. When I entered the temple, I could hear the sound of wooden fish, and the bells and drums were like thunder. He suddenly felt deafening, as if he was in a different world. He lingered in the monastery for a long time that day, and did not descend until dark. After going down the mountain, I heard the sound of the city, remembered the state of mind on the mountain just now, and felt as if I was in a different world. But he wondered today that he had just come from that quiet place, and he didn't feel anything unusual. Maybe it's because you see that both the monks and the lay world are nothing more than that.

The car first sent Zhu Huaijing downstairs to his house. Fang Mingyuan also got out of the car and asked the driver to go back first, and he was a few steps away. I made an appointment to leave early the next morning. Looking at Xiao Tian's car and turning around, Zhu Huaijing asked Fang Mingyuan to go upstairs and sit down. Fang Mingyuan looked at his watch and said, "If you sit, you won't sit." Let's just stand here and say something, it's hard to talk about it on the road just now. The piece of land that Longxing Hotel wanted, Pi Jie took a fancy to. He wanted to develop a comprehensive entertainment complex there. It's a golden land. Long Xing asked you to come forward to find Mayor Pi, and now I have to ask you to come forward and talk to them. The company run by Pijie is called Tianma Company, and you can say that the city has already granted this land to Tianma Company, or that Tianma Company has already contacted the plastic factory. Anyway, it's best not to say that Pije asked for the land, so as not to affect it badly. Mayor Pi has nothing to do with this matter, but who wants outsiders to believe it? ”

Zhu Huaijing shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Now I really have no face." Manager Lei and Manager Mei always think that I, Zhu, am not too big or small, but also a director, and I am also a celebrity in front of Mayor Pi, so let me do it, it must be no problem. In the end, it was still in the soup. ”

Fang Mingyuan smiled, as if he was also embarrassed by Zhu Huaijing, and said, "The situation is special!" ”

Zhu Huaijing also smiled, and just said okay, I'll go and explain to them. Fang Mingyuan said that this matter is really difficult for you, so he went back.

Zhu Huaijing went upstairs and opened the door, Xiangmei hadn't slept yet, sitting in the living room watching TV. Today he came back early, Xiangmei looked happy, looked at him and smiled. Zhu Huaijing understood the meaning of a woman's smile, but it was not a taste in her heart. He was less and less interested in doing that with his wife. When he first got along with Yuqin, he secretly swore that he must be worthy of his wife. A wife is a wife, and a lover is a lover, which seems to be a very popular way of living nowadays. He hated this attitude to life in his heart, and in fact wanted to handle his relationship with two women like this. Unexpectedly, now he has lost his passion for his wife. He felt unspeakable embarrassment in his heart.

Xiangmei poured water for him to wash his face and feet, and went into the house to get a pair of clean socks for him to change into, and said, "Xiong Keguang from the Wuxian County Office in Jing came here and sent four foot fish. This little bear is always so respectful to you, does he have something to ask for? ”

Zhu Huaijing replied: "Xiao Xiong is a good person and flexible. Well, he doesn't see any personal matters to ask me, but he needs my help in work matters. In the final analysis, it is Zhang Tianqi who is alive and well. The people who walk in the officialdom in Wuxian want to say that they have a future, but they are afraid that Zhang Tianqi will have a big future. ”

When Xiangmei heard this, she seemed to have a smile on her face. Zhu Huaijing felt that he had nothing to say, so he asked, "What about my son?" ”

"My son fell asleep. You always go out so early and return late, and my son is afraid that he won't know you soon. Xiangmei said.

Xiangmei's tone seemed to blame, but in fact, she felt sorry for him too hard. Of course, he understood his wife's thoughts, but he didn't appreciate it, and said, "It's good if I accompany you every day?" It's easy, I resigned from this director. ”

Xiangmei's eyes were stunned for a moment, her face was not good, and she said, "Don't open your mouth and close your mouth, you are the director." Is the director a big officer? Ordinary people joked that throwing a ** in any corner of the compound can kill at least ten chiefs. Do you think that there is a half-official position with a good image among the people? ”

Zhu Huaijing was even more angry, and shouted: "Okay, none of us officials are good things, we are all corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and we should all be killed, you go find another good thing!" ”

"Did you take the wrong medicine today? Come back, I didn't say anything to you, and you went straight to the fire without a name. Xiangmei looked aggrieved and wanted to cry, so she lowered her head and went into the room. Zhu Huaijing seemed to suddenly wake up and found that he was really not a thing! It was really nothing, but there was a quarrel. Not in a good mood! Thinking of being in a bad mood, Zhu Huaijing secretly laughed that he had fallen into vulgarity. Bad mood has almost become a fashionable disease now, and people look like they are annoying at every turn, saying that they are in a bad mood. He used to hate this set the most, and now he is not exempt from vulgarity.

Zhu Huaijing entered the room hard, and when he took off his clothes, he was still angry in his heart, and wanted to sleep another one today. But as soon as I got into bed, I couldn't bear it, so I still got into Xiangmei's bed.

Xiangmei was angry in her heart and fell asleep with her back to the inside. Zhu Huaijing didn't want to do that, and he couldn't ask for it. But when he lay down for a while, he took pity on the woman, and went to pull her shoulder. Xiangmei scrambled for a while, then turned around. She didn't give him her face, and buried her head deep in the covers. Zhu Huaijing felt that since she took the initiative to pull her over, even if she was benevolent and righteous, it would be her own business to lose her temper again. He put his arms around her softly, thinking about something else.

Xiangmei didn't move, I don't know if she was asleep. He thought about it all the time, and he lost sleep. My mind is full of strange phantoms. The room was dark and rumbling, but there were clearly many people walking around here. The people who walked in front of him were always slowly inflated, their heads almost the size of a hot air balloon. Mayor Pi, who is tall and tall, wears a red robe, sits on the rostrum and makes a "** work report", full of Amitabha. Mayor Pi was spitting lotus flowers, and the red robe turned into an Arabian flying carpet, carrying Mayor Pi in the air. Mayor Pi sat cross-legged, his hands folded, his face kind, and his mouth was full of words. At this time, a naughty boy came, and when he looked closely, it was Pi Jie, the eldest son of Mayor Pi. With a slingshot in his hand, Piger squinted his eyes and shot a pebble at the flying carpet floating in the air. Pi Jie laughed wildly for a while, suddenly turned his face blue, and pulled Zhu Huaijing to death, asking him to compensate his father. Zhu Huaijing was confused, patted his head and thought about it, as if he had indeed beaten Mayor Pi with a slingshot just now. When he looked down, he saw that the slingshot was right in his hand. Song Daqing came up and handcuffed him. He shouted desperately: "Old Song, it's me!" I'm Zhu Huaijing! Song Daqing didn't seem to know him at all, grabbed him by the collar and stuffed it into the jeep. When he was pushed into the jeep, he saw Mayor Pi standing not far away with his hands behind his back, and explained to Yan Shangming, the director of the Public Security Bureau: "Zhu Huaijing must be dealt with strictly." Zhu Huaijing shouted desperately: "Mayor Pi, I am loyal to you!" I've never said half a word about you out there. He seemed to be sitting in Mayor Pi's office again, and Mayor Pi seemed to be smiling and said, "Zhu Huaijing, what is wrong with me?" I'll send you on a business trip to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection tomorrow to sue me. Zhu Huaijing broke out in a cold sweat, and even said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

"What's wrong with you? What's wrong? Xiangmei woke up Zhu Huaijing.

"What's wrong with me?" Zhu Huaijing woke up, his chest was still pounding, and he felt sweaty on his back.

"I know what's wrong with you? Maybe it's a nightmare, screaming and shouting, it's scary. Xiangmei obviously forgot that the two of them quarreled last night, and lay tenderly in the man's arms. Zhu Huaijing turned on the bedside lamp and looked at the clock, it was already more than six o'clock in the morning. There is no way to sleep anymore, Fang Mingyuan will call later. He got ready to get up. Xiangmei asked him what he was doing when he got up so early, today is Saturday. He said that he had to accompany Mayor Pi to the countryside today.

He sat up, feeling a little dizzy. I got up and washed my face with cold water and felt better. Sure enough, the phone rang, and as soon as Zhu Huaijing answered, it was Fang Mingyuan, saying that the car was already downstairs. He hurriedly went downstairs, and Fang Mingyuan got out of the car. It's still yesterday's Mitsubishi Jeep. The two got into the car and drove to Mayor Pi's downstairs. There was not a single household in the entire mayor's building that turned on the lights, so they turned off the lights and waited. After a while, another Audi came, coming to a silent stop. After about twenty minutes, the lights of Mayor Pi's house came on. Fang Mingyuan looked at his watch and said, "Don't worry, they will come down after washing up." ”

Zhu Huaijing said: "No hurry, no hurry. What's the hurry? It's not to rush for the exam. ”

Mayor Pi came down with Aunt Wang and Pi Jie. Zhu Fang and the others hurriedly got out of the car and greeted them. Mayor Pi raised his hand and got into the Audi. Pi Jie closed the car door gently, turned back to Zhu Fang and smiled, and said, "I'll take your car." ”

Mitsubishi Jeep goes ahead. Zhu Huaijing looked at this Audi, and the license plate was also very unfamiliar. Today's operation is simply underground. The mayor and the deputy mayor are completely different things. When he became the mayor, in addition to the secretary, there were also guards, and he went out in a police car. Today it's all free.

Pije looked impatient and said, "It's all grandma's fault!" What kind of Buddha do you worship? My dad doesn't go up the mountain, and my grandmother calls every three days. ”

Zhu Huaijing could hear that Pi Jie was covering up for his father. After dealing with Pidger, he always felt that this boy looked at the straw bale, but in fact, he was very shrewd!

The sky was dark, there were not many vehicles, and soon arrived at Jingshan Temple. Mayor Pi and his entourage got off the car at the side of the stone steps under the temple and climbed up on foot. As soon as I reached the halfway point of the mountain, Master Yuanzhen had already come down the mountain.

"Thank you, Mayor Pi!" Master Yuanzhen held Mayor Pi's hand with both hands and shook it vigorously.

Mayor Pi was very polite to Yuan Zhen, shook his hand, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Where, you are the land of the Holy Spirit, don't say it's hard to come here." ”

Master Yuanzhen hurriedly said: "What Mayor Pi said is true. Seek the Buddha in oneself, and sincerity is spiritual. ”

After greeting Mayor Tongpi, Master Yuanzhen turned around and shook hands with the others one by one. In addition to the little monk from yesterday, there were two young nuns who came down the mountain with Yuanzhen to greet them, standing quietly on the side with their hands folded, smiling. Zhu Huaijing pretended to be casual and looked at the two nuns, and when he saw that they were handsome, he felt that it was a pity. Zhu Huaijing wanted to be more solemn and told himself not to look at the two nuns. But he was secretly imagining what these two nuns would look like if they were full of hair. Immediately, he had two beautiful girls in his mind, and he couldn't help but look at the two nuns. The nun nodded and smiled at him, like the smile service that was barely implemented in a big shopping mall. At this moment, Mayor Pi was standing cross-legged, gossiping with Master Yuanzhen. Mayor Pi climbed for a while, a little out of breath.

Mayor Pi said let's go up, and everyone followed him up the ladder. After all, Mayor Pi is old, and his legs and feet are not dexterous when climbing, and the young people are a little taboo when they follow behind, always reminding themselves not to climb too fast. Seeing this, Yuan Zhen stepped forward to help Mayor Pi. Mayor Pi shook off his hand as if he had been electrocuted. It seems that Mayor Pi is not convinced of old age. Yuan Zhen must have been a little embarrassed, but he didn't show it. Fang Ming looked at Zhu Huaijing from afar, Zhu Huaijing understood what he meant, but he only saw nothing.
