The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 37: little brother, get

Views:

The three Yunshui monks were brought into the hotel, and the doctor in the store led them to their seats. There were no private rooms in the store. Fortunately, there were not many people at this time. There was a screen in the corner, and it became a small world by itself.

Yun Yan ordered some tea and rice, and told the doctor to go down.

Zhihe and Zhili very carefully helped Zhisheng to sit, and then put him on the back and poured hot water for him to drink. Zhisheng's face looked better, but only a little. Judging from his facial features, he should have had a good life, but unfortunately, his ill appearance completely destroyed his spirit.

Zhihe said gratefully: "The brothers did not reprimand our behavior, but were willing to listen to our complaints, which really impressed our brothers!"

"I admire you for being so righteous to this junior brother!" Hui Chong said, "Stealing words is a helpless act in a desperate situation, how can we blame you? If you don't dislike it, then come to live in the Daxiangguo Temple. Well, squeeze a little, our yard can still accommodate three people! The master is proficient in Qihuang, and he can also diagnose and treat Zhisheng and his younger brother for one or two times."

Zhihe panicked, "How dare you harass senior brother! You can let us talk about the scriptures, it's already a great favor!"

While the two were resigning, a young girl turned around the screen and came to their table.

Zhihe glanced at the girl Fangzi, blushed, and lowered his head, not daring to look at it.

The girl also opened her eyes wide and said with a grin, "It's actually a few mages, the slave family is polite." The uninvited girl gave a salute, reached out to pick up the tea on the table, ordered it for them, and hummed. Minor.

Hui Chong touched his head and grinned: "I didn't see the gardenia lamp hanging outside the door, oh, go ahead."

If there are gardenia lamps hanging, it means that there are prostitutes in the restaurant. These prostitutes are extremely active, they will solicit business by themselves, or they will go forward to sing and serve, and the drinkers will watch and reward money.

"Oh, let's wait until the slave family has finished serving the mages this time." The girl smiled shyly, "It's okay if you don't give a reward, it's the sesame oil money donated by the slave family."

The monks almost burst out laughing.

The girl brought the tea in front of everyone, threw a wink, and left.

When she walked away, Zhihecai breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of tea, and took a sip.

"This young lady is interesting," Yun Yanhui also picked up the tea, "Let's toast with tea instead of wine. In order to get together today, it is fate to meet."

Everyone touched the tea bowl and drank tea each.

Yun Yan asked again, "Looking at the accent, Senior Brother looks like someone from Yingtianfu?"

"That's right." Zhihe nodded, feeling a little sad, "I've been wandering abroad for seven or eight years, and I've never been back."

"Oh," Yun Yan asked casually, "What did you do in your hometown seven or eight years ago?"

"I..." Zhihe suddenly realized what Yun Yan had said just now, stared at him with wide eyes, and his body tightened, "What did you say?"

Hui Chong looked at Yun Yan back in confusion, "Brother Yan, what's the matter..."

Zhihe and Zhili's hands were on Zhisheng's arm, ready to drive him away at any time.

At this time, Zhisheng suddenly snorted, tilted his head back, and passed out.

Zhihe quickly reached out to touch his breath and pulse, and thumped the table angrily, "Menghan medicine?!"

The three monks from Xiangguo Temple sat back in fright, "What kind of sweat medicine, what nonsense are you talking about, is Zhisheng and brother ill?"

Zhihe touched Zhisheng's tea bowl, smelled it, licked it again, and said with an ugly face: "It's the sweat medicine, the medicine that the prostitute gave just now? What are you trying to do? "

Yun Yan, who has been sitting firmly in the mountains like Tai, returned to Shi Shiran and said, "You are calling, do you want me to help you and also call the officials of Kaifeng Mansion?"

The muscles on Zhihe's face twitched, and he was sure that the child's previous sentence "what happened in his hometown" was not nonsense. He gritted his teeth: "What do you guys think?"

"What we want to do depends on what you want." Yun Yan replied. If these people are purely infringing profits, then they have to defend their rights. He only secretly hinted at the acquaintance of the prostitute. The girl fascinated Chisheng by drugging them, so that they could not escape, but also to give a chance.

Hui Chong finally understood, "Brother Yan, do you mean he lied to us before?"

"Nonsense," Yun Yan gave him a blank look, "Brother, don't think about it, they are really sick, can't they go to the temple to make a bill? Many temples in Bianliang have always provided medicine for the poor people, not to mention they are monks. I Not to mention that the first thing most people think of is going to Daxiangguo Temple, but have they been there?"

Hui Chong touched his head: "Aren't they looking for help and hitting a wall..."

At this time, Zhihe knew that among these people, it was this Huangkou child who was in charge, and he was frightened and said, "Exactly, we tried a few small monasteries first, but we didn't want to take them in, so we were disheartened. Feeling cold, I dare not go to Daxiangguo Temple to try."

This order is also subject to the owner's permission. At this time, the gap between the rich and the poor is actually very large.

The rich are like Daxiangguo Temple, and there are many alms, and they are very rich. In poorer monasteries, there are not many pilgrims who do not say anything, because the state will force monks to buy salt and other things to increase their income, and there is a fixed amount every year.

If the monasteries that Zhihe went to were poor monasteries, they might be rejected.

Yun Yanhui shook her head, "Under the feet of the emperor, this is not the case. This person claims to have no one to help, even the monastery does not allow orders to be placed, and he makes money without taking patients to live in the store. He is so ashamed, but he would rather make his own claim to study the scriptures. Don't ask for an authorization when you wait for someone to come to you. You can completely imitate the performance of the mature monks in the Daxiangguo Temple, but you don't go to other shacks, and only choose the jungler with less money... Seriously, even if It’s copied, and based on their imitation ability, there must be Washers willing to accept it.”

This kind of behavior, combined with their expressions, really makes people feel that something is wrong.

"Why are these? It just means that they don't dare to ask for help, they don't dare to live in a store, and they don't dare to go to the washe to perform shows! In my opinion, there is a big problem with their identity. Is the ultimatum fake? Or there is no ultimatum at all—say Really, depending on your clothes and your current situation, it doesn't look like you can afford the ultimatum."

Monks and nuns need the permission of the state to become ordained. It is illegal to shave their ordination privately, and the ordination is equivalent to their legal identification.

But the state will not let people become monks casually. Either you pass the exam—it’s very difficult, and those who pass the exam are in the minority, or you pay for it. Sometimes when something major happens, the state will also issue a small amount of slaughter as a gift. The sale of ultimatum is a financial revenue of the country. When the financial situation is tight, the amount of ultimatum sold will be increased.

If there is no ultimatum, or the ultimatum is false, then naturally they dare not go to the places where the ultimatum needs to be checked.

Based on this, it can be inferred that in the current society, those who walk around the world as fake monks are basically committing crimes...

That's why Yun Yan only asked before he returned. He suspected that these few people who pretended to be monks "travelling" at a young age were involuntarily leaving their hometowns because of a crime. And looking at their reaction, most of them are cheating.

Zhihe and Zhili listened to Yunyan's reply, and then saw that Zhisheng had been poisoned, which made it impossible for the two of them to escape from the store with Zhisheng, so they had to sit back in their seats.

"Okay, now we can talk about what's going on with you."

Although the three of Zhihe have been wandering around the world for a few years, they are not scheming and vicious people. Otherwise, they would not have a sincere expression of guilt when they saw them, and they would not have made up a lie without making it up, and the matter has been exposed. Zhihe saw that Yun Yan had no intention of reporting to the official, so he held a glimmer of hope and came from the truth.

It turned out that Zhihe and Zhili were brothers, and Zhisheng was their cousin. The three were from a small village in Yingtianfu. A few years ago, there was a famine. Only the three remain.

Zhihe and Zhili seek revenge, and then hide behind the landlord's house. Unexpectedly, the housekeeper was not seriously injured and even identified them, so the three had to flee at night.

In order to disguise their identities, they shaved their heads, pretended to be monks, and bought holiday ultimatums.

During this period, I wandered around in the arena, and I also met a few "bosses". Unfortunately, they only have the advantage of learning to talk, they can't fight, and they also carry a fuel bottle, so they don't get along very well.

That's it, I went all the way to Bianlianglai, but as soon as I arrived, Zhisheng fell ill... The rest is similar to what they said before, except that those reasons were replaced by the fear of being found out as a fake monk. the wanted.

They are also unlucky, and the infringement is also the infringement. In the past, they have been beaten for copying other people's words, and they did not listen to their stories. But this time, I encountered a copyright owner who sent someone to prescribe medicine without saying a word.

Looking at his demeanor, it didn't seem like a fake, Yun Yan returned to ponder for a moment, and said, "It really is because my identity is illegal that I don't dare to go to temples and inns. You are also pitiful people, if this is the case..."

Brother Zhihe was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Yun Yanhui was actually going to help them, and said excitedly: "If junior brother can help, the three of us will be grateful, and we will definitely get a ring of grass in return!"

"What's the report? I think your imitation ability is amazing. If you are willing to formally ordain or become a monk, I will ask the abbot to accommodate and ask the three of you brothers to change their identities and enter the Daxiangguo Temple as a lay preacher and work for the temple, how about it? "Yun Yanhui added, "The temple understands that the master is proficient in Qihuang, and he can also heal the younger brother."

The current Yun Yanhui still has the confidence to speak to the abbot. After all, the two jobs he has been responsible for have been very successful.

The two brothers looked at each other and said, "Our brothers are grateful for the great kindness of our junior and senior brothers who repaid their grievances with virtue. However, we can shave, but Zhisheng can't really be a monk.

"If you don't become a monk, how can your identities be legalized? I don't have the ability to adapt to Kaifeng Mansion. It's okay to drill holes in the ultimatum." Yun Yanhui was a little speechless, "Besides, why are you so arrogant? Can't you be vulgar again?"

Nowadays, there are many prisoners with some conditions in their families who choose to become monks in order to commute their sentences or avoid guilt. Just like the Empress Wu who first became a family member in order to marry her husband's son. If you become a monk, it is like deleting your account and rebuilding it. If you enter Buddhism, your previous data will be cleared.

Zhihe and the others couldn't afford the ultimatum, and they couldn't afford the necessary expenses for the monk. They had no choice but to flee before they wanted to go to jail.

Zhihe nodded ashamed, "Because you said you worked for the temple..."

"I can't tell you to be cows and horses all your life. What era is it now... Oh no, although it is this era, we don't pay attention to that!" Yunyan replied, "We only pay attention to economic benefits, and you have helped create enough wealth. , even if you have repaid the favor. Go back and heal the illness and settle the account for you, to ensure that it is accurate to a penny."

Zhihe brothers were stunned. They didn't expect that there would be such a calculation. They said that good kindness can't be measured by money? Also accurate to the copper plate

Yun Yan looked back at these two foolish children who were still confused, and had another plan in her heart. He has a plan to make money recently, but Zhengchou doesn't have someone he can handle and work with. These two seem to give him hope. Anyway, he can go back and investigate first. Two skilled lay preachers.

Zhihe and Zhili thought for a moment, and immediately said, "We are willing! Dare to ask what this junior brother is called?"

Yun Yanhui was already immersed in the sweet dream of receiving a shared horse: "My name is Big Brother Yun!"

Zhihe & Zhili: "… "
