Since the day of marriage, Xiao Mo used the trick of stealing the day to exchange Zhixin and make a big fuss about Shifu, Biyu's body and mind have suffered a huge blow and fell into a more serious depression.

However, after experiencing this complete change, his attitude towards Zhixin seems to be clear. No more confusion, no more infatuation. He finally fully understood that Zhixin was like a flower in a mirror and a moon in the water to him, but he could be lustful out of thin air, but he couldn't actually grasp it. Zhixin could never belong to him.

Although I can see it through, I can't come out of this shadow, and I have become more cold, Pepsi is casual, and I only take medicine and walk for pleasure every day. The eldest princess of Yong'an was not at ease, and when she was scattered, she sent Aji to follow closely behind. Although Shi Hui and his wife didn't like him to take Wushisan, they knew that he had been hit and could not heal himself for a while, so they were not very restrained by him as before.

On this day, Biyu finished serving the five stones and walked to the street as usual. Suddenly, I saw a person walking on the other side.

This person was wearing monk's robes, with a dark and strange face, rough palms, and a thick exotic accent compared to the jade: "Shi Gongzi, the Tao is polite." ”

Biyu usually turns a blind eye to the vulgar people who come and go on the street, or is afraid to avoid them, but he stops at this person's call.

This person was none other than Shamanga Matu of Magadha. Gamathu had been in the Central Plains for some years, and as a Buddhist, he wanted to preach Buddhism to Middle-earth. In the Central Plains, especially in metropolises such as Luoyang, there are many Magadha monks like him. Under the continuous penetration of such a large number of people, Buddhism has been able to take root and develop rapidly, which can be reflected from the Daxing Buddhist Temple in Luoyang City. The strong foundation of Chinese civilization inevitably has to have an impact on these monks. Influenced by the civilized etiquette of Luoyang City, and in order to integrate into the upper circle as soon as possible, Gamo Du changed his image, and was no longer the kind of real practitioner who was dressed like a beggar monk before - wearing tattered clothes, walking barefoot, without washing or wetting.

When Hiyu first met Kamatu, he was attracted by his novelty and Buddhism, and later had several encounters. Gamo Du is not only proficient in Buddhism, but also has a deep understanding of Lao Zhuang metaphysics in the Central Plains, so Biyu is very compatible with him. Seeing him wearing a new robe and new shoes, he was washed cleanly, and exuded a faint fragrance, and he couldn't help but admire him even more.

"Where is the master?"

"Hahaha, Xiaodao just came back from the White Horse Temple. Where is Shi Gongzi going? Want to go to the Secretarial Pavilion? But why not take a deer cart? ”

"Uh......" Biyu didn't answer.

Seeing that Biyu didn't speak, Aji replied on his behalf: "My son-in-law is scattered." ”

Gamo Du glanced at Biyu and said with a smile: "If you are scattered, it must be caused by hyperactivity after taking the medicine and there is nowhere to reduce it for a while. Looking at Shi Gongzi's situation today, he is depressed and depressed, and he can't lift his spirits. If I'm not mistaken, there must be demons at work. ”

Aji was also curious about this exotic monk, and when he saw him say this, he took the opportunity to ask him, "Since the master has some skills, please guess what my son-in-law is thinking, right?" ”

Gamo Du smiled indifferently: "If your heart is not written on your face, the poor monk will not know it in detail." However, most of people's sorrows are born of love. Although I don't know what your son-in-law is worried about, I can't escape the word 'love'. ”

Biyu's heart moved, but he didn't admit it: "Master, don't talk nonsense. I have countless family fortunes, and I look at the official Lu lightly, there is no shortage of beauties around me, and the eldest princess of Yong'an is my wife, what love is there to seek? ”

But Gamo Du shook his hand and said, "Shi Gongzi, this may not be. For example, if someone is obsessed with peonies, even if he is placed in a hundred flowers, as long as there are no peonies, he still can't achieve his satisfaction. ”

These words really correspond to Biyu's state of mind at this time. However, Aji pretended to be angry and said angrily: "Hu monk is talking nonsense! My son-in-law's wife is the eldest princess of Yong'an, the younger sister of the current emperor, do you dare to say that my son-in-law thinks about other women? ”

"This benefactor is bad. The analogy of the poor monk beating with flowers does not refer specifically to women. The love spoken of by the poor monk does not refer specifically to lust, but includes all desires and loves, including lust and material desires. ”

"Because materialism is less likely to lead to depression. My son-in-law has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, but my son-in-law has always forced my son-in-law to make a name for himself. ”

"I don't want to pursue it, but I am forced by others, and I want to resist but can't, which can make people even more depressed."

The reason why Biyu is so depressed every day is that he loves Zhixin but can't help it, and his disgust with his father's constant demand for him to be aggressive is also a factor that cannot be ignored. In addition, there is also the influence of the general environment of the entire era, and he is also worried about the decay and decline of the Jin family, internal and external troubles, but he is unwilling to actively seek salvation like Shu Yan.

Aji listened to Gamodhu's words, turned his anger into a smile and said: "Since the master is so transparent, then it doesn't matter what aspect of my son-in-law's depression is caused by lust, whether it is lust or material desire, the key is how to solve this depression?" ”

Hearing this, Gamo Du turned his head to look at Biyu and said, "The Buddha said: People are worried from love. From worry to fear. No love and no desire is worry-free, and worry-free is fearless. If you want to be worry-free, you must go to the demons and cut off your love. is like a poor monk, alone, penniless, the four seas are home, but he has never been carefree and fearless. ”

Biyu also looked at Gamodu's sunken eyes, and said indifferently: "I understand the truth." But you are a monk, how do you know my experience? I'm afraid it's easier said than done. ”

"But it's not, my son-in-law is the secretary and cabinet adjutantant, and he is a concubine, the most important thing is that as the eldest son of the Shi family, he is responsible for carrying forward the Shi family, do you think you can be as easy as you, and you can break your desire to love?"

Facing the question of the master and servant, Gamodhu smiled coldly: "The laws are empty. Everything you see is empty. Even you yourself are empty, so what else can't be cut off? ”

"The Void of Laws?" Biyu asked, "What is the emptiness of all laws?" ”

This is a Buddhist term. I can't tell you for a while. For now, Childe wants to get rid of the demons and relieve his worries. There are too many love entanglements for Childe here, and there is force majeure persecution. Why not leave the land of right and wrong for a while in search of faster liberation? ”

"Leaving here?"

"You can try."

"No love and no desire is no worries ......"

"May Childe be liberated soon. Polo revealed the truth and crossed to the other side. ”

"Polo reveals the truth, cross to the other side......" Biyu seemed to be thoughtful, muttering these words, and did not say goodbye to Gamotu, but turned away.

In stark contrast to Biyu's mental depression, it is the future of the Shi family. Shi Hui can be said to be smooth sailing in officialdom, and he has always been persevering after several alternations of power and ministers. Especially nowadays.

After the defeat of the Jia Party, Jia Gong, the Dazhong Zheng of Yuzhou, who had not participated too much in the party struggle, was also wiped out along with those backbone Jia Dang under Shi Hui's "earnest concern". This is Shi Hui's favorite thing for many years, because it means that the long-coveted position of Yuzhou Dazhongzheng is already beckoning to him.

The selection of large and small zhongzheng must be affirmed by Situ. At this point, Shi Hui does not have to worry at all, because the current Situ is his distant brother-in-law Wang Rong.

At this day's court meeting, Wang Rong came out of the class and said: "Jia Mi and his party are rampant in the government and the opposition, forming a party for personal gain, and trying to do wrong. Jia Gong, the former pro-party Jia Gong, during his tenure in Yuzhou Dazhongzheng, engaged in favoritism, accepted bribes, arbitrarily evaluated, and had no fairness. Fortunately, it was eliminated by the imperial court in time, which is really the heart of the people of Yuzhou. The law of the nine rank officials is the only way for the imperial court to select and depose the people, and the Zhongzheng at all levels is the key to it, especially the state Zhongzheng, which covers several counties and dozens of counties in a state, is the key to the key. Now that the position of Yuzhou Dazhongzheng is vacant, please select a fair and honest person to fill it in the court as soon as possible. ”

In addition to Wang Rong's report, he patted Sima Lun's sycophants by the way, which made Sima Lun very useful.

"Jia Gong is so unbearable, and getting rid of it is not only the luck of the people of Yuzhou, but also the luck of the imperial court. Now that he is being promoted, it is necessary to choose an upright, clear, and prestigious person to come out - does Wang Situ have a suitable candidate? ”

Wang Rong paused, pretended to think for a moment and said: "Yuzhou is a big state, it has been the hinterland of the Central Plains since ancient times, the state of etiquette, and the prosperity of humanity, which is not trivial. As the king said, the selection of Yuzhou Prefecture must not be cautious. The ministers are all over the country and the people of Yuzhou, only the Marquis of Guangwu and Zong Zhengqing are the most suitable for this position. Shi Hui is now concurrently serving as the Zhongzheng of Ruyin County, he has been in charge of the selection of Ruyin Shi for several years, conscientious, clear and clear, fair and meticulous, deeply respected by the people of Ruyin, with the potential to be promoted to the state of Zhongzheng, and as a giant in the court, and a relative of the emperor, no matter the reputation or status, are worthy of this position, so the minister nominated Shi Hui as the capital of Yuzhou. ”

At the beginning of Sima Lun's auxiliary government, he still gave Sima Zhen a little face, even if he was acting and going through the motions, he would ask the nominal emperor for everything. But now that he is full-fledged, he doesn't have to care about the tongue of the ministers, and he doesn't even bother to go through the motions, so he directly makes his own decisions. However, although he did not oppose Wang Rong's nomination, he did not agree with it very much. I did a mental struggle in my heart: in the early days of this Jian to eliminate the Jia Party, Shi Hui did not clearly stand on his side, but only when the victory and defeat were divided, he began to try to get closer to himself, so Shi Hui was not his hardcore confidant. As Wang Rong said, Yuzhou is a big state, and there are not a few people from Yuzhou who are officials in the court, and there are also many people who are worthy of the name of Shihui. I also have two favorite candidates, but the forces behind these two people are not as good as Shi Hui in terms of the interweaving of gate valves, which has to be considered. Moreover, Wang Rong has been in charge of the selection of personnel in this dynasty since the beginning of the first emperor, and he is very authoritative, and under normal circumstances, his proposals are rarely rejected. In this case, why not be a favor and win people's hearts by the way? Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "What Wang Situ said is extremely true, and Gu Ye has long had this intention. According to your words, Shi Hui was appointed as the Great Zhongzheng of Yuzhou. ”33

The dream that has been dreamed of for many years has finally come true. Shi Hui's heart was full of joy, and he hurriedly bowed to Xie En: "Your Majesty and the king's grace, the ministers are sincere and fearful, only bow and do their best, and choose justly to repay the emperor's kindness." ”

Sima Lun nodded with satisfaction, let Shi Hui get up, and then said to Wang Rong: "Now that Shi Hui has been promoted to the capital of Yuzhou Prefecture, isn't there a vacancy in the position of the Zhongzheng of Ruyin County, where he originally served?" ”

"Exactly."

"Do you have the right person?"

"Uh......" Wang Rong was a little late, "For the Zhongzheng of each county, it has always been nominated by the state first, and then Situ will make the decision to gatekeeping." ”

"That's the case," Sima Lun turned to Shi Hui and said, "You are now a Dazhongzheng in Yuzhou, and you are from Ruyin, you must know you best about Ruyin, do you have a suitable candidate for the position of Ruyin Zhongzheng?" ”

Of course, there are suitable people for Shihui. He had already planned it, and that was his son. But if this was said by himself, it would be inappropriate, so he squinted at Wang Rong from the corner of his eye.

Wang Rong understood the meaning and said: "The position of Zhongzheng must not only be fair and honest, but also be able to recognize and distinguish people, so most of the Zhongzheng are old ministers with some qualifications. However, as far as the ministers know, the older ministers of Ruyin are very mediocre, and they are really overwhelmed. In contrast, there are two young talents, who can be said to be the back wave urging the front wave, talented and talented, and famous in Luoyang: one is Shu Yan, who used to be Shang Shulang and later sent Dawan; The other is the concubine of the eldest princess of Yong'an, the son of Shi Hou, and the current secretary Cheng Shide. But Shu Yan has resigned and left, and now the only one who can be regarded as outstanding in the entire Ruyin is Shi De, so the minister recommended Shi De to succeed his father as Ruyin Zhongzheng. ”

Some people died, but not completely......
