It was the first time that Ji Qingling heard that the saint in the palace had "given silver", and the rest of the people could not give silver more than the usual statement.

The other party used this reason, and he really couldn't take back the gift of the day.

Ji Qingling had to order Qiu Lu and Qiu Shuang to take back the gold and silver in the hands of the intellectual.

Seeing that the silver was received here, the big monk standing on the side showed a relaxed smile on his face, and sighed: "It is also the poor monk who failed to pass the word in place, so such a thing happened, which embarrassed the female benefactor." ”

He apologized again: "There are many people in the temple, it is inevitable that there are places that are not well cared for, and there are many wandering monks outside, although they are listed inside, they are not people in the temple, and we have nothing to do with them." ”

He said such a sentence in his mouth, neither nominating nor giving his surname, but everyone present knew that he was referring to Zhixin.

The great monk said: "Now it is about the birthday of Guanyin, if the lady has time, then come to the temple to listen to the lectures, this time it is the wisdom of the master said "Diamond Sutra", all the essence of Buddhism, the right way of Buddhism, and the rest of the hanging list of random preaching is completely different, and there is a good vegetarian fast......

said a big call, from head to toe, and simply skimmed the monk Zhixin of the Great Xiangguo Temple.

It was easy to send the two monks away, and Ji Qingling actually had a few drops of sweat oozing from his head.

Qiu Shuang couldn't help but sigh: "The monk of Daxiangguo Temple is really a capable person, even more powerful than the old pious woman who walks the streets, but he can still do a good job!" ”

Ji Qingling listened to it funny.

This kind of acquaintance is said to be a monk in the temple, in fact, on weekdays is to do some work to usher in, in terms of the ability to see the wind to make the rudder, not much worse than the shopkeeper in the big shop outside, compared to the wall grass in the court, it is only a little worse.

The monk is not afraid of things, but the temple is afraid of things, especially the Daxiangguo Temple, but occasionally with the palace twice, he will be impeached by the imperial history and courtiers at every turn, seeing that Gu Yanzhang did not move at all before he started like this, he flicked it lightly, and sent people to Guangnan to feed the snakes and insects.

But in this way, it is also a good thing, the monk reacted quickly, and there are many other smart people in the capital, presumably it won't be long before no one spreads Liu Muhe's gossip with great fanfare.

Maybe it will still be passed on, but it will only discuss the fifth brother.

No one is in the capital anymore, and there is no willingness to be in the limelight, and when he comes back, a year and a half have passed earlier, where will anyone remember him.

After thinking about it in his heart and thinking about everything before and after, Ji Qingling went to urge the carriage with Qiu Shuang, and then went to Liufu.

***

Not to mention how this Daxiangguo Temple behaves, in the Li Mansion on Junyiqiao Street, a man who looks like he is in his early fifties is sitting on a seat, drinking tea, while looking at a woman standing on the side with her head down, and asking, "What do you mean by this?" ”

The man's face was round, he didn't smile, and he looked very kind, but the woman standing under him was like a mouse seeing a cat, and she didn't dare to fight at all, so she said honestly: "Halfway through the scriptures, everything was originally smooth and smooth, but suddenly a poor acid appeared, and the Zhixin monks were all right, and they saw that it was about to end, and suddenly someone came from the government, saying that the court was going to Guangnan to quell the rebellion. ”

The woman was wearing a brown and yellow short satin pine, bamboo and plum brocade skirt, just looking at her dress, she was like a rich merchant, but standing in front of this man, she was a subordinate person at all.

This man looks to be in his early fifties, but in fact, he is still two or three years away, and he will be sixty, but because of good maintenance, his face is less wrinkled than that of ordinary men in their forties.

This person is one of the most famous wealthy businessmen in the capital, called Li Chengwei, he started by buying and selling horses, silk, and tea in his early years, and later walked the business line from Yanzhou to the north for two years, earning a lot of silver, and after a few years, he didn't know what business he did, and he became the richest man in Beijing.

He heard the woman's reply, but he frowned and asked, "When did the government say you want to leave?" ”

The woman hurriedly replied, "It seems that I set out this morning, and now I should be on the way." ”

Li Chengwei sat up straight almost immediately, his eyes narrowed, and he shouted: "Now that everyone is gone, you came to talk to me about this?" Are you eating dry rice?! ”

He had a round face, even if he scolded people, and he was not very fierce, but the woman was so frightened that her face turned white, swallowed her saliva, and stumbled: "Last night...... The concubine wanted to report to the lord last night, but you are not in the house, so it is not easy to look for ...... for a while."

In front of this person, she naturally didn't dare to say it so clearly.

Yesterday, I saw the people in the Sanglu Division, and I immediately went back to the house, but the old man was not at home at that time, and I didn't wait for anyone for a long time, so I could only wait in the gatehouse, and I didn't even dare to sleep, for fear that if I missed it, I would be scolded.

As long as Li Chengwei goes out at night, few people in the family can know his exact whereabouts, and the errands that this woman usually does are not important, so naturally no one is willing to help her find someone - in fact, it is herself, and she doesn't know whether this matter is the most important thing or not.

However, at this moment, seeing the reaction of the old man in the family, the woman was both afraid and happy in her heart.

Fortunately, I really didn't sleep all night and kept guarding the gatehouse, otherwise I don't know what the fate would be.

Li Chengwei sat up straight and asked, "Why did the Holy Lord suddenly order Monk Zhixin to come over?" ”

The woman's head shrunk, her voice lowered by two points, and she said, "I think it was recommended by the official in charge of the monk's place." ”

Li Chengwei glanced at her coldly and asked, "Did you send someone to inquire?" ”

The woman shrank for a moment, nodded and said, "Asked...... Asked one or two monks in the monastery ......"

Li Chengwei sat back on the table with a "pop" of the tea cup in his hand, and the hot tea splashed out immediately, but he didn't pay attention to it at all, and only said with a gloomy face: "I make money every day to raise fools like you, I just think that if something happens, I can use it, but I don't have enough success and more than I lose, are you still embarrassed to eat my rice?" ”

The woman didn't dare say a word.

Li Chengwei said angrily: "Call Li Chengda in for me!" ”

The woman ran away like a dog, and hated her father for not giving her two legs.

Li Chengwei was sitting in his seat, he was too angry, but his face was extremely ugly.

The officials in charge of the monks in the Sanglu Division, almost all of them have eaten the shadow of Zhixin, how could they recommend him to Guangnan.

Seeing that the people who are going to be used in the next two months are now inexplicably being sent away, what is the reason for this? Although he didn't care about Zhixin, but the two sides were more or less helping each other, if the one knew that he had learned the letter in advance, but he didn't go to help, it was indispensable to be beaten up.
