Chapter 198: I Have a Backer
The audience was in a commotion again, and the county magistrate slapped the table, "Silence! ”
"Old monk, what Liu Jinyuan said is reasonable. Don't use your temple to deceive people anymore, what is the past life and future life, this is in the Tang Dynasty, and the official has only heard of the yang and the underworld. Since you are in the yang world, the affairs of the yang world should be managed by the government. ”
"If you don't have any other explanation, then the official will pronounce the sentence."
The hollow monk was so angry that he stomped his feet, pointed at the county order and shouted: "Ignorant, ignorant mortals, if you don't respect the Buddha, you will be punished sooner or later." ”
The county order looked at it, "Yo, still not satisfied?" Roaring the court and cursing the official? Come on, slap your mouth! ”
Only then did the officials work harder.
The Pharaoh monk of Shanlian Temple clasped his hands together, and said with sad eyes: "Amitabha, all living beings are suffering, and the only way to cross is to cross by themselves. Poor people in the world don't practice my Buddha Dafa, they don't know the past and present lives, they can't get rid of the calamity of the red dust, and they will always fall into the suffering of reincarnation. ”
"Good and evil are rewarded, cause and effect are clear, evil in this life, or in this life or in the next life, sad and lamentable......"
After speaking, he stood still and chanted Buddhist scriptures, as if he was a compassionate monk.
"Monk Wuna, what are you babbling there?"
At this time, Xiao Yue, who was listening next to him, spoke, "He is reciting the Great Compassion Mantra, and there is no trace of the Sanskrit Great Compassion Mantra that has not yet been fully translated." ”
The county commander praised: "The second son is really erudite, and he can even understand Sanskrit." I don't know what kind of mantra this monk means? ”
Xiao Yue waved his hand and said, "It's not that I can understand Sanskrit, I have been living in Daxingshan Temple to read books these days, and I have listened a lot, and I can understand a sentence or two." I don't know the meaning of this great compassion mantra, but when he recited the mantra at this time, he should pity the people of the world with heavy karma, and reciting the mantra can help the world eliminate the karma and get rid of the sea of suffering. ”
"It should be regarded as, it can be regarded as praying for all of us."
Prays? Help us pray? So, he still has a good heart?
The county magistrate doesn't know whether to cry or laugh, this old monk, do you make this your temple? This is the county government!
The master next to him reminded in a low voice: "County official, this is not right! We need him to pray for blessings? Is this clearly cursing us and saying that we are all sinful? But if we are sitting upright, and avenging the wrongs of the people, where does the iniquity come from? This old monk has bad intentions and is too cunning. ”
Burst......
Xiao Rui didn't expect that the master next to him, who had been in charge of recording, would think so trickily? poked the old monk's waist and eyes directly.
Sure enough, the county magistrate was furious and took the case, "Okay, you cunning old monk, dare to curse us to your face?" In your opinion, all the people present except yourself are sinful bad people? Not to mention anything else, the champion Hou is here, he is a good person known as the Qingtian Imperial History, and he is also the leading Xiao Divine Doctor in Chang'an, with countless living people, such a person is actually guilty of what you say. Come on, tie up the county! ”
All the officials rushed up, and they couldn't help but say that they tied up the Pharaoh monk Yuan. Not only did the other party not resist, but he was even tied up and chanting. The head catcher was angry, so he found a rag and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
The hollow monk next to him who had finished his mouth panicked, "You can't, you can't tie up my uncle, you ignorant mortals, do you know who he is?" ”
The county commander shouted angrily: "Who? Of course the county knows. In front of everyone's eyes, it is already clear. You, and what kind of uncle are you, the two monks are extremely shameless, and they used lies to deceive Liu Jinyuan of all his family property, which indirectly led to the death of the rich man Liu, and the evidence is conclusive. Come on, tie up this liar too. ”
"Sent people to the Yuandeng Temple and Shanlian Temple, copied the stolen incense money, and if they resisted, they were all tied up. Liu Jinyuan's property will be returned in full. If the rest of the money is unclaimed, it will be confiscated and turned over to the state treasury. ”
Liu Jinyuan knelt down with a plop, and tears fell like rain, "Thank you for the impartial enforcement of the county order, Liu Jinyuan's deceased father kowtowed to you." ”
The onlookers shouted hello, Chang'an County Commander is a clean official!
The hollow monk was tied up and taken to the prison, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he struggled and shouted, "You can't touch us, do you know who I am?" ”
The county magistrate is very curious, who does this guy repeatedly mention himself? How? Your status is not ordinary? Relatives of the Imperial Family?
jokingly waved his hand to stop the officials, "Wait, let him tell me who he is?" Could it be that he is not a monk? Can it still be a thief in the previous dynasty? Then the case is big. ”
The hollow monk shouted: "No one has ever dared to snatch incense money from the Buddha's merit box, not even the imperial court, you will regret it!" ”
"Or is it the same old thing? Take it away, send it to prison and smoke it again, this official hates this kind of open-mouthed liar the most. "The prefectural order is impatient.
"No, we are from Daxingshan Temple, and the abbot of Daxingshan Temple is my master, which of you dares to touch us? Daxingshan Temple is a royal temple, and there are countless princes and nobles behind it, just because you are a seven-grade petty official, can you afford to provoke it? ”
The county commander was shocked, and said with a dark face: "No matter who is standing behind you?" Today, if you are convicted of fraud in the court of this official, you will be sentenced according to the Tang Law. If you can't even take you as a liar who seeks money and kills, how can this official be responsible for the people of the county? Drag it out! Search these two monasteries carefully, and don't let go of a copper plate. ”
The hollow monk struggled and shouted: "You say that I am cheating, it was voluntarily given by him, the peace incense of Daxingshan Temple is ten gold, the same is such a rhetoric, there is a kind of theory that you went to my master?" Ninety percent of the sesame oil money collected by my Yuandeng Temple and Shanlian Temple was sent to Daxingshan Temple, and the master will save me, and you will regret it. ”
Yo, is this provoking me? So, the water is very deep here, and you're just a small fish in the Yuandeng Temple?
The county magistrate glanced at Xiao Rui, and Xiao Rui inadvertently gave a look.
Then the county commander reached out and took the court transcript from the master, and personally walked to the hollow monk above, "Look at the transcript yourself, what you and I said today is 1510, I didn't wronged you, right?" ”
"Humph! Don't say that with you as a seven-grade petty official, even the champion next to you, you can't provoke Daxingshan Temple or the entire Buddhism! "The hollow monk is not stupid, but he is stupid and confident, stretched out his finger and pressed the handprint, drawing in public.
He was too confident and firmly believed that no one could move the Buddha Gate.
Xiao Rui smiled, he had already been tempted, this hollow monk was born in Daxingshan Temple, and was one of the disciples of the abbot of Daxingshan Temple. But over the years, I have been exposed to too many mundane things, and I have been blinded by money, and I no longer have any Buddhist attainments.
If he is smarter, such as the Yuan Pharaoh monk of Shanlian Temple, he is very smart, just using Buddhism to fight the sharp edge and suppress joy and anger, just like a smooth prayer bead, there is no way to put his mouth down, and naturally he will have the least flaws.
It's a pity, I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates, this hollow monk is Xiao Rui's pig teammate selected for Daxingshan Temple.
What he wanted was his last sentence, signing and drawing, and one thing was confirmed: Daxingshan Temple sent people to organize subordinate monasteries, and in the name of spreading the law, they took the opportunity to deceive the people to collect money. In the end, all the money went to Daxingshan Temple.
In the cheers of the people, the Chang'an County Order retreated.
In the back hall of the county ya, Xiao Rui praised and encouraged a few words, and asked Chang'an County to copy today's transcript and put away the original by himself.
This is not in accordance with the rules, but the Chang'an County Commander knows in his heart that the champion Hou is definitely not here to be curious today, and naturally there is something important to do. He, the person who is the emperor of Chang'an County, naturally has to cooperate with the master of the horse, and since the Yuandeng Temple has climbed out of the Daxingshan Temple, he must not be able to gnaw on the county order.
"Master Horse, the tree of Daxingshan Temple has deep roots, you must be careful. If you need to do anything in Chang'an County, you can send someone to say a word, and the officials will fully cooperate. ”
is not called the champion Hou, but changed to the name of the horse master, the meaning is obvious, it is to speak as a close confidant of the emperor and his own person.
Xiao Rui patted the other party's shoulder: "In the next few days, there will be a lot of cases like this against small and medium-sized temples, you work hard, just try it like this." We are the errand of the imperial court, behind which is the trust of His Majesty, and we eat the imperial grain paid by the people. Therefore, I am not afraid of offending any Raushzi Buddha, but I am most afraid of offending the people of the world. ”
The commander of Chang'an County said respectfully: "The lower officials understand, and they must keep in mind the teachings of the master of the horse." ”
"Okay, your performance today is very good, I will talk to Your Majesty, be a person and do things with your heart, you will be the next Liu Renliang."
After speaking, Xiao Rui strode away with Xiao Yue, and the county order personally sent out the gate.
watched a good show, Xiao Yue seemed to have some experience, but he still couldn't solve all the doubts, and even deepened the doubts.
"Brother, do you say that there is really a Buddha in the world?"
