Chapter 160: To the Buddha

After running for five days in a row, it was far away from Shangjing, and Jiang Shaohe was a little relieved.

In the evening of that day, Jiang Shao and his wife arrived at a town, found an inn and prepared to rest.

They had never traveled so far before, Jiang Shao and his wife were tired, so they rested early after washing their meals.

The night was getting deeper, the bright moon outside the house was covered by dark clouds, and Jiang Shao and his wife slept heavily in the house.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the door of the inn.

Xiao Er, who was sleeping in the ear room, was woken up and went to open the door sleepily.

"How many guest officers? What kind of room do you want? Xiao Er yawned and asked habitually.

The official beside Chafeng showed his waist card and said solemnly: "Dali Temple handles the case, which room does Jiang Shao and his wife live in?" ”

Xiao Er's brain was thrilled when he heard this, and he instantly came to his senses. After seeing the waist card of Dali Temple and the group of people in poor clothes, they hurriedly let them into the house.

"Wait a minute, the little one will check."

Xiao Er ran to the counter and took out the check-in book to look through.

"Hurry up, if something goes wrong, you can't afford it." The wind is impatient to urge.

They chased after them for two and a half days, sleeping only three hours a night, and finally found this place.

Xiao Er's frightened hand shook, handed the booklet to Chafeng, and said in a trembling voice: "Official, there is no surname Jiang." ”

I had expected that Jiang Shaohe would use a fake name, so he took out the portrait and said, "Has this person been seen?" ”

Xiao Er looked at it, had an impression in his mind, and nodded again and again: "I've seen it, I live in the third room on the left hand side of the upstairs, and I'll take the official there." ”

Their small city is far away from Shangjing, and they have never seen the officials of Dali Temple, so they naturally dare not slack off.

"Bang!" Kicking open the latched door of the house with one foot in the wind, the officials of Dali Temple rushed in and quickly lit the candle flame in the house.

Jiang Shao and his wife, who were dreaming of a sweet dream, were awakened, and when they sat up and saw the officials surrounded by knives in front of the bed, they were dumbfounded.

Jiang Li didn't understand, they escaped from seven days of detention and fifteen canes, did they need such a vigorous pursuit?

"Jiang Shaohe, you have been arrested." The official took out the arrest warrant of Dali Temple.

When Jiang Shaohe saw it, he knew that the matter of hiring a murderer had been exposed.

How could it be so fast!

A look of hatred flashed in Jiang Shaohe's eyes, it must have been the boss who betrayed him.

"Hurry up, you want us to help you get dressed." The official shook the knife in his hand.

Jiang Shaohe got out of bed, trembling and put on his coat and shoes.

Jiang Li blushed with shame while holding the quilt, and he really couldn't do anything to dress in front of so many men.

Zhufeng and the others didn't want to see her dressed, so they took Jiang Shaohe and waited outside the house.

After a cup of tea, Jiang Li dressed up and went out, his hands were shackled.

Xiao Er's heart was shocked, my mother is obedient, there are two key criminals living in their inn.

"Where's their carriage?" Chase the wind asked.

Xiao Er hurriedly said: "The official will go to the door for a while, and the villain will bring it." ”

Escorted Jiang Shao and his wife into the carriage, drove the wind in person, and rushed to the post station outside the city to rest.

Five days later, Jiang Shao and his wife were escorted back to Beijing.

Jiang Shaohe was imprisoned in Dali Temple, and Sun Hechuan ordered someone to whip him thirty times, and gave him the punishment of a hundred ants and heart-eroding hearts.

Jiang Shaohe was in pain, and he recruited everything.

Sun Hechuan sentenced them to be beheaded in the autumn according to the law.

As for Jiang Li, she was taken away by Lord He, changed from 15 canes to 30 canes, and was imprisoned for 15 days.

After the thirty rods, Jiang Li had only half a life left.

After being released from prison on the fifteenth, Jiang Li did not flee from Shangjing again, but bought a new house and waited to collect Jiang Shaohe's body.

As a pillow person, Jiang Li didn't know that Jiang Shaohe had bought the murderer and murdered Jiang Shu and Jiang's father.

As soon as she heard about it, she suspected that the official was wrong several times, until Jiang Shaohe admitted that she was like being struck by lightning.

Jiang Yun is dead, and Jiang Shaohe is also dying. A good family of three was ruined, and only Jiang Li's family was left alone.

It was July, and Jiang's father was depressed and sad for a long time, and finally came out, and the family returned to normal life.

Yu Zheng worked hard for a month, and the rumors of his devotion to the Buddha finally spread and drifted into the palace.

After the morning of this day, Yu Zheng was called by Concubine Yu.

When he arrived in the palace of Concubine Yu, he was not surprised to see that the emperor was also there.

"Father, mother."

Concubine Yu smiled and beckoned to Yu Zheng: "Come over and accompany your father for a few rounds."

Yu Zheng walked over and sat down as he said, holding Baizi and the emperor to fight, and Yu Guifei was watching chess with a fan on the side.

The father and son have fought a few rounds back and forth, each with wins and losses.

"No, I'm tired." The Emperor rubbed his forehead tiredly.

Concubine Yu handed the emperor tea, turned her head to Yu Zheng and said, "It's almost noon, Zheng'er will stay and eat together, it just so happens that a batch of lychees has just been tributed, you can bring some back later." ”

"Okay." Yu Zheng responded, and the three of them sat together and gossiped.

Chatting and chatting, the emperor mentioned the birth of the first emperor.

"According to the usual practice, the royal family will send people to the imperial tomb to chant sutras for three days, and they will also copy a hundred volumes of Buddhist scriptures in advance and burn them, who does Zheng'er think this matter should be handed over?"

In previous years, this kind of drudgery was handed over to some royal relatives who had no official positions and were relatively idle, such as King Rong and Yu Yuan.

This year, the emperor specifically mentioned it, obviously testing Yu Zheng.

A dark light flashed across his ink eyes, and Yu Zheng said sincerely: "Erchen, go." ”

"You're going?" The Emperor wrung his eyebrows in surprise.

Yu Zheng said: "Erchen has read a lot of Buddhist scriptures recently, and he has also gone to Zhaojue Temple to discuss Buddhism with the host a few times, and he is quite touched, and he will copy a few Buddhist scriptures every day before going to bed to meditate." ”

"It just so happens that Erchen has been a little confused recently, and he went to the imperial mausoleum to accompany the imperial grandfather for a few days, maybe he can still get the imperial grandfather's guidance in his dreams."

When Yu Zheng said this, his face was pious and serious, and the emperor and Concubine Yu were trembling in their hearts.

Are the rumors out there true? Is their son really obsessed with the Dharma and devoted himself to the Buddha?

Concubine Yu stroked her chest and asked tentatively, "What confusion do you need your imperial grandfather's guidance?" ”

Concubine Yu didn't understand, what could a living person not be able to solve for him, so he had to go to a dead man for guidance?

Yu Zheng looked at them, pursed his lips and hesitated: "Erchen went to Lin'an a few days ago, and saw many orphans and orphans of the people, and he felt pity but could not do anything. ”

"On the way back to Beijing, he was assassinated again, and he has not been able to find out who did it."

Erchen felt that the disturbances in this world were really tiring and weak, and only Buddhism could make people meditate. It is because his sons want to participate in the study of Buddhism, and use Buddhism to comfort all sentient beings. ”

Concubine Yu was shocked when she heard this, and her beautiful eyes widened in astonishment.

The emperor slapped the table angrily: "Ridiculous! ”

Yu Zheng lowered his eyebrows and was silent.

"You are a dignified son, shouldering the heavy responsibility of Zhaozhao, how can you have the mind to escape into the empty door! It's not like words! The emperor's forehead jumped with anger.

Concubine Yu rarely saw the emperor so angry, so she hurriedly stroked the emperor's back and persuaded: "Your Majesty is angry, Zheng'er just said it casually." ”

Yu Zheng raised his eyes, looked at them calmly and said, "My ancestors have abdicated and become monks, why can't my sons?" ”

When the emperor heard this, he glared angrily.
