Chapter 101: A Sword to Buy (Part II)

After resting for two days, I set off and traveled for more than half a month, gradually entering the south, and I could see the fertile fields, gardens everywhere, and flowing water from a distance.

At this time, in the dense area of the Han nationality, there was no need to live in a post station, so he bought horses by himself, fifty taels for each horse, and three hundred and fifty taels of silver for seven horses, but this time on the road, he really spent 1,500 taels of silver.

A carriage, five horsemen followed, this kind of style, natural people let it, this day, when passing through a place, suddenly saw a garden, from the outside estimated and looked, there are ten acres.

In December, the flowers and leaves inside have withered and exhausted, and the ingenuity of the arrangement of flowers and trees can also be seen.

Outside the garden, visitors can watch, there is a small pavilion inside, and the words "Yingxian Pavilion" are written on it.

At this time, it was already in Tianze County, subordinate to Baiyang Mansion, but it was only fifty miles away from Fang Xin's hometown from Jiangfu, and after passing through, he arrived at his hometown, and when he saw that it was already noon, the sky was gloomy, and there was snow, so he ordered someone to stop the car and walk up to the pavilion.

Seeing that this pavilion was very large, with a table and eight chairs, I saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy walking over, bowing and saying, "This son, are you here to play, or to have tea?" ”

Fang Xin said in surprise: "Can you also use tea here?" ”

"My master has set up an outer courtyard, willing to entertain visitors, and can also rest by passengers, if you are tired and thirsty, you can serve clear tea, if the guests use it, the villain will take it immediately." said. The boy was on the pavilion stove. I made a bowl of tea, held it in front of Fang Xin, and shouted, "Childe, please eat tea." ”

Fang Xin looked at it and found that not far from the garden was the tea forest. This kind of tea, although it is not a grass tea, is not a good tea, but to have this intention, it is already amazing, smiled at the moment, took a sip. And he put the bowl on the table.

The young man said, "This son, please rest." The stove can be baked with snacks and dry food, but if the master of the family comes out to enjoy the snow, please let the son let it. ”

"Yes, I understand." Fang Xin saw that although he was a small servant, he also had a bit of literature and ink, and knew that the master of the family was extraordinary, so he agreed, so the six of them entered the pavilion together. Wu Xing took out the basket.

Fresh meat buns, braised chicken, and some meat slices, which were bought in the morning, put them on the stove and roasted, and served them to Fang Xin first. Fang Xin ate a braised chicken thigh. and a few pieces of meat, and two more snacks. It's enough, the following is naturally eaten by Abel, and the rest, five strong men, are divided at once.

Speaking of this, Fang Xin remembered the classics on the earth, especially the Water Margin, in which he could "cut a few catties of cooked beef and scald a pot of hot wine" at every turn.

In fact, as long as you have not entered the industrial revolution, it is a big crime to slaughter ploughing cattle on the earth.

According to the law of Da Chu: the law of slaughtering and ploughing cattle - cattle plough for people, so they are also used for agricultural work. If killed, how to make the cattle cultivate the farm, the people are food-oriented, and the farmers are based on the cattle, so their purpose is to be declared, and they cannot be slaughtered without authorization. Anyone who slaughters a ploughing ox without the permission of the government will be questioned, and the first offender will be punished with ten rods and imprisoned for one month, and the second offender will be punished with thirty rods and demoted to an official slave for one year, and the third offender will be exiled for a thousand miles

That is to say, only the government checked, thinking that the cow is old, unbearable to farm, only allowed to slaughter, slaughtered in private, is a big crime, on the earth, China compiled the book of merit of Buddhism, which has the saying of killing a cow and falling into hell and suffering, in fact, there is still some truth - when ploughing cattle is related to agriculture, killing cattle is equivalent to reducing production, which is equivalent to a little more hunger and cold, which is of course a sin, and with machinery, this cow is just ordinary food, and pigs are the same, which is called this time and that time.

As for the things written by lay monks and monks who go to extremes, those who catch fish and kill pigs, they will all fall into hell and be reborn in the evil path, this is all nonsense, in this way, animals are life, plants are life, there are countless bacteria in the water, and human beings will catch up and overtake without eating or drinking, and as for fishermen and farmers, all of them harvest and kill countless sinners every year, and all of them will go to hell.

It is a natural truth that people eat animals and plants, and Sakyamuni eats meat and drinks milk, which is a natural truth, as long as human beings do not evolve to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon for a living, this is useless.

As for the saying that if you look at a woman, you will go to hell, in the Internet era, there are countless half-naked women, according to the law, if you look at it a few times, you will go to hell, in this way, everyone in the world will go to hell - it is good to persuade the world, but if you go to the opposite side of nature and society, people who say these things are afraid that not only do they not have merit, but they have it.

These thoughts passed in a blink of an eye, and Fang Xin didn't think much about it, but at this moment, the young man suddenly came: "Childe, the master of the family is here to enjoy the snow, and please leave quickly." ”

Fang Xin had already informed him, and this was the master's territory, so he stood up and wanted to leave at the moment.

At this time, the old man inside had already brought two people over, followed by two servants, seeing Fang Xin leaving, but he was stunned, this young man was really handsome, his eyebrows were like knives, and his eyes were dark, so he said: "This son, you don't have to leave, come up and talk together." ”

Fang Xin is twenty years old during the New Year, but he has holy power in his body, and he has all his official spirit, so he looks like a young man, which is also a matter of course, Fang Xin also looked up, and saw that this person was dressed in silk, silk socks and beads under his feet, and he was more than fifty years old, not angry and arrogant, this kind of temperament, at a glance, he knew that at least he had been in power.

In the back, there is a scholar in his twenties, wearing a silver crown with a bundle of hair on his head, a stone blue shirt on the outside, and a face like a crown of jade.

He was followed by a monk and some pickers with food boxes.

Fang Xin bowed slightly and said, "The student is reckless, and the adult is angry." ”

The group went to the pavilion again, sat down at the ceremony, the young man offered tea, opened the food box, took the food, and warmed the wine.

The old man said, "Where is the prince?" ”

"Student Li Rui is from Jiangfu, and this time he is returning to his hometown." Fang Xin said indifferently.

The old man was taken aback for a moment and asked, "But from Jiangfu?" ”

is an example, but it is a great event, and the whole province knows it.

Fang Xin said: "With the emperor's grace, it's just a fluke!" ”

The old man was taken aback and said: "It turned out to be Lord Li, the old Wei Nanzhu, who used to be the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, resigned due to illness, and has returned to his hometown for five years, it is really a blessing, this is my son-in-law Zhang Zhuo, who was lifted, and his father is the prefect of Aries Mansion." ”

Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, the fourth official, Fang Xin smiled and said: "Your son-in-law is really a talent, with outstanding demeanor and popularity, and he will definitely be on the gold list of the imperial capital in the future."

saw the salute again, and let Fang Xin sit in the second position, and the social hierarchy is like this.

"Bangyan Gong didn't serve as the county magistrate of Guming County, how could he return to his hometown today?" Wei Nanzhu asked.

"With the grace of the imperial court, the student served as the sixth grade of Hanlin Zheng, but he was injured a few years ago, so he was able to go home to recuperate." Fang Xin said indifferently, neither boasting nor concealing it, it turned out that this kind of news had not yet spread to the world.

Zhang Zhuo was also taken aback, and stepped forward to salute: "It turns out that the adult is already a six-grade attendant of Hanlin Zheng, it is really a blessing, if there is any rudeness, I hope to forgive my sins." ”

Fang Xin smiled: "Why should Zhang Gongzi be polite? I took the liberty to come! ”

Looking for a few more words, Fang Xin also said calmly, Wei Nanzhu was shocked when he heard that Fang Xin had already sealed the baron, and said: "It turns out that my lord, I am already a noble lord, and I am really old, hurry, go inside, I can entertain adults, it is really a blessing for old people!" ”

Once did Taichang Temple Shaoqing, but also an official body, according to the imperial court law, five officials, one person was born from the ninth grade official, four grades can be shaded by two people, one is the ninth grade official, one person is from the ninth grade, three grades can be shaded by three people, one is from the eighth grade official, one person is the ninth grade official, one person is from the ninth grade, and the second grade and one product are pushed by this.

But that's all, the title is rare, once obtained, among the descendants, the son-in-law is the lord for generations, far above the four officials - and, in the system, you can eat and eat at the time of eating, so it is also called the home of the bell and the ding.

At that moment, I was invited in, set down the banquet, sat down with the guests and hosts, toasted a few glasses, and talked about some poetry, literature and political affairs

It turned out that Wei Nanzhu also had no children, only one daughter, married to Zhang Zhuo as his wife, Zhang Zhuo has been lifted, naturally there is no need for this blessing, but this blessing can be used on his grandson, so Wei Nanzhu does not need it now, and when his grandson is born, if he can't be lifted, he can also arrange for them to be born.

And Zhang Zhuo, enlightened at the age of five, can read through the Five Classics at the age of seven, can make articles at the age of thirteen, is the age of twelve to be admitted to the Tongsheng, at the age of fifteen in Xiucai, at the age of eighteen in the lift, but the second time in the Jinshi, did not succeed, deeply regretted, under the words, there is an expression.

After Fang Xin heard about it, he said: "Zhongjinshi, it is really a life, two luck and three studies, it is not the fault of the son, but there are still some great Confucians, open their minds, and cultivate their sentiments, if the son is willing, you can come to my house, I want to consult the great Confucian Huang Shaoyang with you." ”

Zhang Zhuo immediately bowed and said, "Master Xie, it is also a blessing for students to be able to ask adults, not to mention studying together with Mr. Huang?" ”

After that, he toasted himself.
