The smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, the small bridge and the flowing water.

Jianye, once the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, is now the place where the rich gather, and the flowers are like ten miles of Qinhuai. The smoke clouds lock the heavy building, outlining the ridge in the distance is continuous and majestic, although there is a continuous sound of the piano and the melody, but it is difficult to hide the domineering spirit of the former king of the ancient capital.

On the Qinhuai River, there are still painted boats like weaving, and fireworks women sing small songs. There are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, and how many buildings are in the smoke and rain.

Sanskrit sounds resisted, and the sound of the bell tower crashing loomed. The ancient temples of Fotai and the people in the market are all intertwined with the far-reaching Zen in the distance, and there is no contradiction at all in the cup in front of me.

Outside the Fengyang Gate of Jianye City Gate, there is a private mansion that stretches for hundreds of hectares, among which there are the water pavilion towers and Gao Yu buildings. There are more than ten mansions in and out. There is also the Neihu Covered Bridge, which encloses a hillside in Jianye City for horse racing and amusement.

It's not a palace, but it's already like the royal family's outer house.

Here, it is the residence of the Shangguan family, the most famous court medicine dealer in Jianye. Everyone in Jianye knows that his family is flying and prosperous, and he is really a relative of the emperor.

The eldest daughter, Shangguan Wanwan, was selected as a show girl and has been sent to the palace. At a glance, the emperor felt that this Jiangnan woman was very special in her beauty, and she had already sealed Shuyi. When this news came, the Shangguan family was very happy.

The dignitaries and nobles in Jianye City all walk around frequently with the Shangguan family, come to the door to give gifts, and are in contact with each other and want to climb in-laws.

Speaking of climbing in-laws, in addition to the eldest daughter sent to the palace, the Shangguan family naturally has a son-in-law to inherit the incense.

However, recently, there has been a sensational thing quietly spreading in the streets and alleys of Jianye - the incense of Shangguan's house is estimated to be broken. That sister-in-law, Beifeng Gongzi, was picked up from Flying Fish Villa, but his leg was crippled, maybe, that place must be not good!

Suddenly encountering a catastrophe, it is said that Mrs. Shangguan, who was already old, washed her face with tears all day long, and Master Shangguan frowned. However, how could this Shangguan family not inherit the incense, so there was another news in the neighborhood, saying that the Shangguan master was secretly looking for a young and beautiful woman from a good family and wanted to take a concubine.

While he is still old and strong, he must leave a good continuation of incense for the Shangguan family! One spread ten to hundred, and today someone said that the matchmaker entrusted by Master Shangguan went to the Li family outside Shaohua. It's just a small businessman's family, but her daughter Li Ruihua is so good-looking. Twenty-eight years old, knowledgeable.

"Are you mistaken? That Shangguan master is in his old age, he is about to become a grandfather, and he still wants to take a concubine? "Some people don't believe it, and they are ridiculed by the crowd.

"So what's not? Could it be that he married Miss Li and became his crippled son as a daughter-in-law? Hey, I can't look at his son. has been rampant and domineering since childhood, and is a famous overlord in Jianye City, but where is the Flying Fish Village in the northwest? There are many masters, and the place where the rivers and lakes are proud. Shangguan Beifeng was too arrogant and was cleaned up. ”

There is a peddler pawn who often goes in and out of Jianye to buy in the north, and he has said everything he knows, after all, Shangguan Gongzi's broken leg is all anecdotes on the road.

The neighbors opened their mouths wide when they heard this, and they all said that this is the case, there are no strong people in Jianye City, and if they go out of their hometown to other places, they will definitely be taught a lesson. No wonder, the Shangguan family has been low-key recently.

It stands to reason that the daughter's entry into the palace is a glorious thing, but there was such an accident. As soon as the cause and effect are connected, it is all right.

It's a non-imaginary thing, it seems that Master Shangguan really wants to take a concubine. You said that your sons have all broken their roots, so what can you do?

has come and gone like this, the Shangguan family is on the cusp of public opinion, and Shangguan Beifeng has become the laughing stock of the whole city.

Since he was a child, he has done a lot of things in the township in Jianye, and the villagers remember him. Actually, he deserves something.

……

There is no impermeable wall in the world. Even if the high walls of this Shangguan Mansion are numerous, what should be heard and what should not be heard has reached the ears of Shangguan Gongzi:

"Nonsense! Which bastards say I'm crippled? Catch them all!! Give it to me, grab it! ”

Sitting in a wheelchair, Shangguan Beifeng trembled with anger. He couldn't stand on his feet, just enough to push everything off the table. The brush inkstone fell to the ground......

And the Diamond Sutra that he had just copied half. What is it for? Let him copy Buddhist scriptures and pray for blessings?

Hehe.

It has been more than two months since Shangguan Beifeng came back, and he has seen all the famous doctors in Jiangnan, but his legs are becoming more and more numb.

My father and mother said that the Zen master of the Buddhist hall asked him to copy the scriptures before he could pray for blessings.

However, he is now considered an epiphany, and the Buddha can't save him, perhaps, only the demon who does not bend the means can go against the sky.

He suddenly thought of the man, who was about to leave the room with his wheelchair turning.

"Young Master, where are you going?" The servant hurriedly followed behind and helped him push his wheelchair. Obviously, these days, the young master doesn't go out of the gate, he doesn't want to go anywhere, he doesn't want to see people.

Now, who are you looking for?
