Chapter 183: Completion of Merit

Zhang Anshi glanced at Zhu Di.

After all, a few days ago, there was no clue yet, and now that he said that he had started to get a clue, Zhu naturally felt strange.

Zhu Di is now on the Xu Wen these people, can be described as itchy teeth, only hate these people can not be broken into pieces.

Consequently, he gazed at Zhang Anshi and said, “What’s the brow?”

Zhang Anshi said, “It is not easy to say now, but I think …… it is just these days. When I have an accurate letter from my side, and hold the person, I will immediately report to His Majesty, and will never dare to delay.”

Zhu Di then nodded his head in satisfaction, “This is very good, be quick, Xu Wen is dead, I’m afraid that these people are also in the wind, once they all lurk, it won’t be easy to find them again.”

Zhang Anshi said, “I obey the decree.”

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaoqi with emotion and relief.

Today Zhu Gaoqi s performance let him have a few moments of solace, this prince …… is no longer just lenient, at least it has begun to have an imperial mind.

Although he and this son had different ways of handling things, the fact that the Crown Prince had accepted Zhang Anshi’s advice to come up with such a marriage strategy was also evident that the Crown Prince had grown up a lot.

As soon as the palace side of the court is graced with its presence.

Zhang Anshi then went to find his own sister Zhang in a hurry.

Prince Consort Zhang’s has also been in the palace of the will, they began to Zhang Luo up, first asked the palace e where to go, and ultimately let them decide for themselves, these palace e, more than the original Zhang’s stayed in the collection, it can be said that, without the Zhang’s, they are now but the roadside of the withered bones only.

Most of them had been separated from their families or their relatives had died in the disaster, and now that they heard that they were to be let out of the palace, many of them couldn’t help but shed tears of sadness.

In the Eastern Palace, they spinning is hard, but in fact …… than in the outside of the day I do not know how many times better, coupled with the Prince Consort to treat everyone easy to approach, it has long been the Prince Consort as their dependence.

Since you can not stay, eventually have to go out to marry, it would be better to listen to the arrangements of the East Palace, at least with the East Palace as the mother’s family, even if there is aggrieved, at least there is always a place to take care of them.

As a result, there were quite a few people who were willing to marry military officials.

Zhang’s one by one comfort, and open the dowry thing, both the East Palace people married, always can not let people look down.

Although it is not possible for everyone to give any overly generous dowry, it is still much better than the ordinary people’s families.

The most important thing is still the matter of the federation, after all, the East Palace is too far away, and the federation in Annan, and even in the future in other places, it represents the East Palace, the eunuchs at the head, of course, need to be sent out by the East Palace, they are responsible for, is both the liaison, but at the same time is equivalent to the palace eunuchs’ mother’s family, therefore, Zhang must choose people who are trustworthy enough.

Zhu Zhanji watched with a bewildered face as many of the palace eagles looked haggard these past few days, and some secretly cried.

He didn’t understand and always cocked his head in observation.

It’s just that he wanted to find his uncle to answer his questions, but he realized that he had no time to visit him.

Outside the palace, it was Zhang Anshi who took care of things, and the first thing he did was to get the Annan side, to send a directory of military officials who were not married to each other.

Even if it’s just a tiny little flag officer, this roster has to be delivered.

Other than that, it’s about the age of the military officials, their looks, and so on and so forth.

Although the parents’ order and the matchmaker’s words, Zhang Anshi is still determined to engage in an ‘innovation’.

That is to let the palace women arrived in Annan, looking for a screen or curtain blocking, and then let the palace women choose husband. Roughly, it is these military officials, one by one to go in, if there is a palace e on, will be the first choice.

As for those courtesans who didn’t make a choice, or those military officials who weren’t chosen by the courtesans, then they had to draw lots to deal with them.

Even the step of choosing a husband is actually a rare step forward, and at least some people feel bold.

But there was a quick response from Annan.

It was said to be a morale booster, and each of the four guards of Annan smiled.

Those military officials were all smiles.

Even the ordinary soldiers suddenly felt that they had something to look forward to.

After all, …… they are stationed outside, there are many chances to make merit, want to become a general can be said to be a heavenly dream, but if they are transferred to become a trial small flag for merit, or a small flag officer, but there is still hope.

Finally, I don’t have to worry about being extinct.

Even Yang Shiqi, the vice governor, also repaired a letter to this, greatly appreciated, but he was considering another level of problems.

That’s military discipline. When martial artists don’t have families and people are out in the world, it’s easy to cause all kinds of problems, such as alcoholism and even indiscriminate killing. But if they have families, they can greatly reduce such incidents.

At that moment …… the first batch of courtesans were escorted off.

On that day, there was a lot of crying in the Eastern Palace.

Crown Princess Zhang also could not help but shed tears and bid farewell.

When Zhang Anshi saw that Zhang was moved to true love, he obediently hid in the pile of people and did not dare to come close.

Who knows ultimately was found, taught Zhang called to the bedchamber: “You out of this idea is good, is …… they served me for two years, and now they have to leave to go far away, the heart really can not rest assured.”

Zhang Anshi said, “A sister …… is the only one who can be trusted.”

Zhang raised her head and said, “Yes, they are mostly alone in this world, this palace is their sister and mother in general, I will have many more sisters in the future.”

Zhang Anshi raised his face in bitterness and wailed, “Sister, we’re the ones who are close ah, you have to distinguish between the lesser and the greater.”

Zhang didn’t take care of Zhang Anshi’s words, but said to herself: “Federation side, I chose a few trusted and loyal eunuchs to go, just with a few of them, I’m afraid it’s not …… possible to use the manpower on your side?”

Zhang Anshi said: “I think, just pick a few more from those married courtesans, no need to invite outsiders, there are outsiders, it will be rusty. Furthermore, if there are any orphans of the generals in the future, if they have nothing to live for, they can also find something to do in the federation, these orphans and widows have a salary, at least they can live. When the other generals see that the Federation is willing to help them even if they are unfortunate, they will be more willing to serve from now on.”

Zhang said, “This is a good idea, the federation side of the money and food, the East Palace to pay, can not be false hands, the East Palace can be poor, but can not condescend to others.”

Zhang Anshi let out an oh.

Zhang thought for a moment and said: ”It is a pity that Deng Jian is not here, if Deng Jian is here, there is him to open up, things will be smoother. Henan side of the women …… will soon come, in the future, the East Palace is more to do their best to teach. Spinning let them know self-reliance, but also to teach some learning, as well as the reasoning of husband and mothering. This thing can not fake hand, need me to do this sister personally to do, but I after all, learning is too shallow, think about it, these days should be all into the palace, to teach the mother ……”

Zhang Anshi’s body was shaken, when it comes to slipping up, Ah Sister is also an expert!

She is not learned, she is clearly running to please her mother-in-law.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Yes, the Empress Dowager also studied under Empress Dowager Cixiao Gao, her skills can be great, learning a little bit from her is enough to teach people to benefit greatly. It’s a pity that I’m a man, otherwise I’d go and learn it too.”

Zhang glared at him, suddenly angry teeth itchy: “what words you say …… A sister has no other thoughts now, tube you do outside, but only one thing, you need to marry and have a child, when the next year, will have to play the father and mother, teach you to marry can not.”

Looking at his angry sister, Zhang Anshi did not dare to refute, and could only nod his head resentfully.

Zhang grunted, “You’re thinking about those Annan generals getting wives, but you’re ignoring your own affairs, what kind of thing is that?”

Zhang Anshi had a rare moment when he was so speechless to retort and said, “Ah …… yes yes yes yes.”

But I saw Zhang added: “There is one thing, teach you to do, father and mother gave me some jewelry, I think about it, I want to send some to the wife of the Duke of Wei, it happens that you are here, you help a sister to send it.”

“Ah ……”

“What’s wrong with you? You don’t even want to do this? It’s just that I don’t have a brother like you ……”

Zhang Anshi: “……”

…………

Zhang Anshi still obediently went to the Duke of Wei s residence to take a walk.

Xu Huizu didn’t make it to Beiping.

Because His Majesty seems to have suddenly changed his mind.

This was clearly an intention to still allow the King of Zhao to travel to Beiping.

Therefore, after hearing that Zhang Anshi came to visit, he first went to meet the women of the Duke of Wei’s residence before letting Zhang Anshi come to the center hall and teaching people to prepare tea.

Two people meet, inevitably there are a few awkward, Xu Huizu said: “Gong E given with the generals of the four guards in Annan, you’re a very good idea, the Governor’s Office side, are on your praise. Hey, the generals of the border towns are too bitter, not only the head should not in the waistband of the pants, even marrying a wife is difficult, not to mention, or the palace of the palace e.”

“This inside and outside the dynasty, all said that the people are suffering, but the people have the people’s suffering, military households, such as at any time to lose their lives, far away from the countryside and the pain of the cantonment, and how many people know?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Yes, my nephew is this way, so I came up with this idea, of course, the main or sister-in-law side support, sister-in-law has always been sympathetic to the generals, and often said to me, this world is the generals of the Great Ming fought down, we can not forget our roots.”

Xu Huizu knew that Zhang Anshi was talking nonsense.

However, he still nodded his head and said, “If Your Highness the Crown Prince is so gracious, the generals and soldiers of this army are only grateful.”

With that, the two fell silent again, not knowing what to say next.

In the middle of this embarrassment, finally someone hurriedly came to report, “Master Gong, outside Zhu Yong, Zhang Yoking a few gentlemen, said there is an urgent matter …….”

Zhang Anshi was like an amnesty, and immediately said, “Hey, my nephew has always hoped to chat more with Uncle Shih, but unfortunately …… the sky does not meet the wishes of people, I am afraid that something big has happened in Qixia, my nephew will leave first, and will come back to visit next time.”

Xu Huizu then got up and personally sent Zhang Anshi to the center door, and I saw Zhu Yong and Zhang Yoking and Qusong waiting outside.

So then smiled to Zhang Anshi said: “next month is the old man birthday, you want to come, my family that Xu Qin, age is still small, the House up and down many things …… for this birthday banquet, really anxious, you come a day early, I know you are an idea person, when you also come to help help. ”

Zhang Anshi subconsciously said, “Ah …… this ……”

But soon, Zhang Anshi said, “Good, when the sky falls, my nephew also arrived two days earlier, can’t teach the birthday boy to personally open up this matter, this ushering to send things, my nephew is most familiar with it.”

After saying that, he ran away with a few Zhu Yong in a puff of smoke.

“Haha ……” Zhang Anshi patted Zhu Yong’s shoulder affectionately, “Fortunately, you guys came to relieve the siege, big brother I have a thin skin, it is difficult to sit there.”

“Big brother, there is really something ……” Zhu Yong said with a bitter face, “Our backyard is on fire.”

Zhang Anshi was startled, “What is it?”

“Yao Guangxiao, with a cadre of monks, went around in Qixia making karma, saying he wanted to make merit ……”

Zhang Anshi immediately cursed, ”That old bald donkey, doesn’t he have any face left? He is trying to extort us! You guys too, big brother has sent so much joss stick money, he still doesn’t know enough, you guys should go and kick people out.”

Zhu Yong cried and said, “We wouldn’t dare, we’re not afraid of anyone but him.”

Zhang Anshi sighed with hatred, “Come with me and look at big brother’s eyes.”

Yao Guangxiao looked haggard at this time.

No longer his old glowing self.

And the monk’s clothes on his body, too, were very worn out with many patches.

The monks and shamans who came with them were all like beggars.

Zhang Anshi took a look and was directly shocked.

It’s not a good thing to come to a good place!

At that moment, Zhang Anshi stepped forward and said with a smile, “Master Yao, what are you …… doing here?”

“Harmonize.” Yao Guangxiao said.

Zhang Anshi smiled bitterly, “Master Yao, now Qixia is very poor, I can’t even eat. So many people to feed, last night I looked at the accounts of the merchant bank, people are going to cry out, I Zhang Anshi has done so many good deeds …… now ……”

Yao Guangxiao pronounced a Buddha’s name and sighed, “Ai, is there any misunderstanding of poor monk Zhang?”

Zhang Anshi said, “How could I misunderstand you?

Yao Guangxiao said, “The poor monk is really here this time to make merit.”

Zhang Anshi said: “You are a virtuous monk, this merit is already full. How about this, I have 3,000 taels of joss oil money here, to make a good karma, this merit is two and one for five, let’s each have half? Any more than that and there really won’t be any more.”

Yao Guangxiao shook his head and said, “No, no, no, no, Zhang shihou has a misunderstanding of poor monks, poor monks are really accumulating merit and virtue to come, all these years …… are really ashamed, and now the poor monks have repented.”

Zhang Anshi felt his heart ache, all repentant, it seems that he still has to add money.

Seeing Zhang Anshi’s face of meat pain, Yao Guangxiao said, “The truth is not hidden …… I have a division that is about to pass away ……”

Said here, Yao Guangxiao tearful up: “Hey …… poor monks have him pointing, this has embarked on the right path, only terrible, he is about to give up the mortal flesh, to the western sky extreme happiness ……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Oh, so, that is very rare, Mr. Yao sure you only have such a master right, do not after a few days and popped up a few, if the master is about to pass away, but really should be added money, you can rest assured that I know how to do it, tomorrow to send 10,000 …….”

Yao Guangxiao said, “What do you take poor monks for.”

Zhang Anshi: “……”

Yao Guangxiao sighed, “This master ……”

As soon as I heard the four words of this master, Zhang Anshi’s heart was cold, there is this certainly there is that ……

Yao Guangxiao said: “Teach me a lot of Buddhism, I am his disciple, but his lifelong wish is to be able to sit in the body and turn into relics. Although the poor monk is converted to Buddhism, but also did a lot of sins when I was young, now I think, if the master can not be transformed into relics, it must be that I Yao Guangxiao too many sins, and even dragged down the master, so that he can not be full of virtue. Therefore, from now on, the poor monk will devote his heart to the Buddha, and may the Buddha be able to know the poor monk’s sincerity and accumulate merit to fulfill the master’s long-cherished wish.”

Zhang Anshi was always silently relieved as he gradually listened a bit.

Yao Guangxiao has a master who is dying.

Monks, the so-called monks, at least in this day and age, it is often believed that the more senior monks, after sitting down, can be burned out of the relics out.

The bigger this relic is, the higher the merit.

Now that the master is dying, Yao Guangxiao makes a surprise attack on a temporary basis so that the master can be blessed by the Buddha and really burn out the relics.

Zhang Anshi couldn’t help but say, “What if no relics were burned?”

Yao Guangxiao immediately said, “Don’t curse my master, my master is a person of great merit.”

Zhang Anshi had to cough and say, “What if the relics are burned out?”

Yao Guangxiao sighed: “If so, not only the master’s merits and virtues are complete, the poor monk is also enough to comfort his life, for the temple ……”

Zhang Anshi keenly sensed that this was no longer just a problem between Yao Guangxiao and his master.

After all, so many monks depend on that temple for their livelihood.

Burned out the relics, it proves that here there is a high priest of the Way, the temple spirit, only Yao Guangxiao’s incense oil money ……

No wonder this guy …… has a haggard face, now more than likely …… it is really for the raid to accumulate merits and start working hard.

It’s like the bookworm who is about to take an exam, only to suddenly revise.

So Zhang Anshi secretly pulled Yao Guangxiao to one side and said, “Master Yao, if …… I said if …… if I have a way to guarantee that this master of yours will burn the very best relics, do you believe me? ”

Yao Guangxiao looked at Zhang Anshi with surprise and said, “This relic …… is related to merit, what can you do?”

“In short, there is a way.” Zhang Anshi lowered his voice and said, “Say it, I scare you to death, in fact, in addition to my frequent dreams of the Kong sage, I occasionally dream of Buddha his old man. Buddha his old man is very appreciative of me, when he sees me, he sends smoke …… No, when he sees me, he says that I have a destiny with Buddha.”

Yao Guangxiao’s face became increasingly odd.

Zhang Anshi does not say that the Confucius saint is okay, this says …… it reminds him that Zhang Anshi can actually get the eight shares of the text, this guy is young, uneducated, the world s readers are not as good as him.

This master can not burn relics, Yao Guangxiao did not have much certainty, after all, merit this thing, there is no quantitative standard, which if not burned, not only the temple’s signboard smashed, Yao Guangxiao side is also very embarrassing.

I am afraid that there are still many people who want to sneer at Yao Guangxiao for having committed too many sins on weekdays, and then question the rationality of the Jingdan!

So Yao Guangxiao said with a straight face, “There is one thing, do you know?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Please also tell?”

“Many people say that the poor monk has sinned.”

Zhang Anshi nodded his head, actually agreeing that

Yao Guangxiao said, “This is the excuse they want to use to satirize the poor monk to do many sins, so as to think that the poor monk encourages His Majesty to pacify the disaster, which is against the sky, think about it …… if the relics can not be burned out, His Majesty is also disgraceful?”

Zhang Anshi nodded, “That makes sense, people nowadays love to chew the cud.”

Yao Guangxiao shook his head: “If the readers are non-negotiable, in fact, is nothing, but the temple believers, most of them are those real and real ordinary people, if even these people …… are made so think, is to shake the foundation ah.”

Zhang Anshi couldn’t help but look at Yao Guangxiao seriously and said, “What does Master Yao mean by saying so much?”

Yao Guangxiao said, “The poor monk is trying to tell you, you boasted yourself, when you can’t burn the relics, then it’s all your fault, if his majesty blames you, the poor monk will say, it’s your bad idea, but don’t be afraid, his majesty trusts you, and your brother-in-law is a crown prince, at most, his majesty will take you to beat you up and scold you for a few hours, and the matter will be over. ”

Zhang Anshi: “……”

Yao Guangxiao at this time appears to be much more relaxed, smiled and said, “Well, the heavy burden on the poor monk, finally unloaded, aiya …… suddenly feel the whole person is lighter and faster, really Zhang Shi master and my Buddha have destiny ah, this destiny thing, really wonderful. By the way, you just said ten thousand two incense oil money, still count?”

Zhang Anshi: “……”

See Zhang Anshi meet tense face, Yao Guangxiao bitterly said: “Do not have any pressure, you are still young, afraid of what? This master of mine, like me, was once in Beipingfu. His Majesty and he is also familiar with, he is going to pass away, you fulfill his wish …… is also considered to be loyal to His Majesty.”

Zhang Anshi gritted his teeth and said, “Into the motherfucker, I ……”

Yao Guangxiao narrowed his eyes: “Zhang Shi master, you think about the benefits, say not really burned out relics? I think my master, there is still merit …… Furthermore, if it can really burn out …… poor monks can not help but be grateful to you …… Well, poor monks are hungry, today is not a fortune, go to the Inn to eat a good meal.”

When Yao Guangxiao left, Zhang Anshi returned to Zhu Yong’s several people in great numbers.

Zhu Yong saw that Zhang Anshi’s face did not look right, so he said with concern, “Big brother, what’s wrong?”

Zhang Anshi lamented, “Big brother may have been fooled.”

Zhu Yong said, “Big brother, who is fooling you? As long as it’s not Yao Guangxiao, we’ll definitely give big brother a chance to be angry.”

Zhang Anshi shook his head, “Less nagging, prepare some guys for me …… Oh, and Qusong …… you go and make a furnace according to my recipe …… Let’s do merit to go.”

Zhu Yong was surprised and said, “Merit …… what merit?”

Zhang Anshi said, “It’s all been said to cut the nagging, we’re going to burn out one of the most powerful relics under the sky.”

………………

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty ……”

Yiluoha tiptoed into the chambers of the great inner sanctum.

Zhu Di glanced at Yiluoha, “What is it?”

Also lost Ha said, “Hui Zhen Da Zen Master …… can t be.”

This matter …… Zhu is slightly known.

This Hui Zhen, in fact, and the original Yao Guangxiao in Zhu Di is the King of Yan, together into the Beiping House, because Empress Xu believes in Buddhism, so the king’s residence of the puja are Hui Zhen presided over.

After the success of the pacification, Zhu Di enthroned Huizhen.

Speaking of which, Mr. and Mrs. Zhu and this Hui Zhen were quite familiar with each other.

“This person is Yao Guangxiao’s master.” Zhu Di said with great emotion, “I didn’t expect ……”

Empress Xu frowned, “What a pity ……”

“The slave girl has heard some gossip.” Yilostha said cautiously.

Zhu frowned, “Huh?”

Also lost ha said, “Many people …… secretly said, Hui Zhen since and His Highness entered the capital, has been bad body, this is clearly because …… did sin … …”

When these words came out, Zhu Di’s eyes swept over the killing opportunity, he was in front of Empress Xu, he was born to hide this cold front in his eyes, only with his back hand, he walked to the window, pretending to look at the scenery outside the window.

Empress Xu said, “Zen Master Hui Zhen has always been uncontested in the world, but because he was bonded with His Majesty in the Beiping Mansion in the beginning, someone dares to start such rumors and make trouble?”

Also lost Ha Road: “These are the brocade guards side of the probe to the other day, but also arrested a reader, this reader …… in the wine shop to speak freely about this matter …… said a nose and a nose, said what …… what ……”

Zhu Di suddenly turned around, said angrily: “Well, stop, and that Ji Gang, arrest a scholar to do what, so many people are talking about, can not block the mouth of all the people? They want to scold, then let them scold, I do not still rare these only long a mouth of the guy? If Jin Yi Wei can only do this kind of thing, I want them to have what use?”

Yiluoha was so scared that he didn’t dare to utter a word of air, and busied himself with saying, “The slave girl will let the Imperial Prison side release the person.”

Zhu Di said: “I’m not worried about those readers, but rather those ordinary people, the people, mostly good men and women, if they believe in such evil words, is not to their emperor, as a demon to look at it?”

Also lost ha said, “slave girl …… slave girl ……”

Zhu Di sighed heavily, “Summon Yao Guangxiao.”

Yao Guangxiao came quickly, as if he had learned early on that His Majesty would summon him, but he was now all at ease, and when he saw Zhu Di, he saluted.

Zhu said, “The matter of Hui Zhen ……”

“Your Majesty, Zhang Anshi said that he is more familiar with the Buddha and will definitely be able to solve this matter.” Yao Guangxiao said, “I think …… since Zhang Anshi boasted about it, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

Chu: “……”

Yao Guangxiao smiled, “I am not trying to shirk, and …… such things, can only rely on the fate of heaven, rather than daily worries, it is better to think open.”

Zhu Di’s face slightly eased: “What you say is also reasonable, but it is me who is obsessed. But …… this …… thing …… may become someone else’s handle, just …… everything to listen to God let it.”

……

Zhang Anshi entered the temple with a few brothers.

That monk Hui Zhen had reached the end of his oil.

After Zhang Anshi had roughly read it, he then began to prepare the recipe.

In this temple, he only recognized one monk, Empty Sky, so he asked Empty Sky to come and play.

Follow the recipe and prepare this Hye Jin ‘food’.

Emptiness looked at a bowl of such a thing and was a bit worried, “Master Zhang, would it be …… possible to give this to the Great Zen Master?”

Zhang Anshi said, “You can rest assured that is, I Zhang Anshi never do not sure of things, let the great Zen master suffered a little bit of aggravation, three meals a day, all eat this, anyway,…… there are not a few days, sure to suffer a little bit of bitterness, can be eaten in the bitterness of bitterness, and so on, after the death of the Buddha on the Buddha, the future …… I will teach him to shock the world after sitting down.”

Emptiness pronounced a Buddha’s name, and then he personally went to feed Hui Zhen her ‘medicine’.

The medicine was really powerful, and within two days …… Huizhen passed away.

All of a sudden …… inside and outside of this capital, the discussion, even as if all of a sudden, a Zen master, began to pull the hearts of the people up.
