In the Arctic Pavilion in Jinling City, on the peak at the northeastern end, is the Jiming Temple.
This temple was originally called Tongtai Temple. It was built during the period of Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties. In order to build the temple, Emperor Wu of Liang went to Tongtai Temple four times to become a monk and forced ministers to redeem his life. He raised a total of hundreds of millions of coins and was able to
A large-scale temple was built. Unfortunately, within twenty years, the temple was struck by lightning and most of it was burned down.
After Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, the impudent emperor, who had been a young monk for three years, drank water and thought about the source, ordered the reconstruction, and then changed its name to Jiming Temple. Originally, Jiming Temple was very popular, but after Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, this rebellious child was everywhere
Contrary to his grandfather, not only did the court system undergo earth-shaking changes, but his grandfather worshiped Buddhism, while he suppressed Buddhism.
Ordinary people didn't care about that, and those who believed in Buddhism still came to offer incense and worship Buddha. However, the officials and gentry in Jinling City had great fortunes, but they had to consider the emperor's views, especially the views of Dr. Fang Da, who hated Buddhism very much. Therefore, Jiming Temple
It has become much deserted, and the big incense owners no longer come easily, so the money for sesame oil is much less.
Today is a good day. Early in the morning, Monk Wan Kong, the abbot of Jiming Temple, heard that at the invitation of the envoys of Japan and Shanhou Kingdom, the Ministry of Rites would lead the envoys of the two countries to visit Jiming Temple and pay homage to the Buddha. Evening
Monk Kong was overjoyed and quickly asked Zhike Monk to arrange everything. The young monks swept everywhere and tidied up Jiming Temple.
Meng Fusheng, the minister of etiquette, led Shimazu Mitsuo and He Tianyang and their entourage to Jiming Temple. Monk Wankong, wearing a red cassock and a Vairocana hat, came out to greet him. He stole the business of Zhike monk and personally led the nobles of the two countries.
Let’s visit Jiming Temple.
In order to welcome the distinguished envoys from the two countries, Monk Wankong made careful arrangements, specially isolated some important areas, prohibited ordinary pilgrims from entering, and led the envoys from the two countries into the Main Hall. Shimazu Mitsuo immediately knelt down on the futon to worship Buddha respectfully.
, He Tianyang and Ping Nu then followed suit and invited incense sticks to burn incense and worship the Buddha together.
After offering incense, Wan Kong led them around the temple, stopping from time to time to explain it to them in person. When they walked to Rouge Well, Wan Kong pointed out: "This well is originally called Jingyang Well, also known as Shame Well.
When the Sui soldiers went south, Empress Chen's master Shu Bao and his beloved concubine Zhang Lihua hid in this well, but they were discovered by the Sui soldiers and captured alive."
"Nani?"
Shimazu Mitsuo was very interested when he heard this, and he quickly moved forward and looked into the well. Unfortunately, there was no beauty in the well, only a ghost-like thing was reflected in the well, which startled him.
Only then did he realize it was himself.
At this moment, the Zhike monk whose business had been robbed by the abbot suddenly led a group of people here, pointing and smiling happily. When Wan Kong saw it, he frowned and immediately became unhappy.
He quickly confessed to Minister Meng and others, clasped his hands together, and hurried forward to greet them.
"Junior brother, senior brother is accompanying the Minister of Rites and two foreign envoys to visit the temple. Didn't I tell you that the other pilgrims will..."
Before Wan Kong finished speaking, Zhike Monk came up to him excitedly and whispered: "Brother, this one has a good background. He is the little princess of Zhongshan Prince's Palace!"
"ah?"
When he heard that it was a princess, the displeasure on Master Wankong's face was instantly wiped away. Dingqing looked at it, and as expected, surrounded by the crowd, there was a young girl with her hair in a bun, wearing a lake green dress.
The narrow-sleeved top is paired with an emerald green skirt, and a thin belt wraps around the waist to create a very attractive and delicate curve.
No makeup, no jewelry, noodles with clear soup, but a kind of nobility came to her face. The little girl stared at him with her beautiful eyes. The monk in the evening sky quickly bowed his head and shouted the Buddha's name, his face
There was a friendly and peaceful smile on everyone's face. As a result, the distinguished guests received by the abbot personally included another guest: the young princess of Zhongshan Prince's Palace.
Nine-story pagoda, seven-story pagoda and ten-faced golden Buddha, most of the time during the tour of Jiming Temple, I accidentally met Xu Miaojin, the young princess of the Zhongshan Palace, and Pingnu, the princess of the Queen of the Mountain. They hit it off and became very good friends. In the Guanyin Hall,
The great master sat facing north, and the couplet on the door of the hall read: "Ask the Bodhisattva why he sits upside down, sighing that all living beings refuse to look back."
Xu Ming'er smiled as brightly as a flower, took Ping Nu's hand and said: "Sister Ping Nu, it is a great fate that you and I can meet each other today. Why don't you and I become sisters with different surnames in front of Master Guanyin?
All right."
Today's encounter was actually at Xu Ming'er's request. She wanted to get acquainted with Ping'er, the princess of the Queen of Mountains, and marry Jinlan. She would have the opportunity to interact with her in the future. So if Xu Hui Zuzhen and Fang Xiaoru reach a cooperation
, Xia Xun has more chances to secretly send her away.
Xu Ming'er's worry is not impossible. Fang Xiaoru has the emperor's trust, but what he lacks is a foundation in the court. Xu Huizu has a huge network of contacts and a strong foundation in both the government and the public. What he lacks is the favor of the emperor like Fang Xiaoru.
, if two people form an alliance, it will be of great benefit to each other. This does not require a mature politician. As long as Fang Xiaoru has a little vision, he will not reject Xu Huizu's kindness.
Once an alliance is formed, Fang Xiaoru will get an extremely powerful ally and receive great help. All he needs to pay is a disciple who is married to the Xu family, and his power will be further consolidated. His ideals and his
All ambitions will be more likely to be implemented. Will he not agree?
It was related to the lifelong happiness of a daughter's family, and Xia Xun did not dare to be careless. He has now realized that it is not him who controls the general trend of the world. But the fate of those who control the general trend of the world is affected by him to a certain extent, and he cannot
I can guarantee that the wings of my little butterfly will not affect Fang Xiaoru and Xu Huizu, thereby interfering with Xu Ming'er's future.
Pingnu had already received Xia Xun's instructions, and she immediately said happily after hearing this: "My sister and I hit it off as old friends, and that's what I thought, so I followed my sister and asked Master Guanyin to be a witness for you and me, and we became Jinlan sisters.
"
The two of them happily prostrated themselves in front of Master Guanyin. When they got up, Monk Wankong stepped forward to congratulate him with a smile on his face. The two girls returned the greeting with a smile. Inadvertently, Xu Ming'er's eyes fixed on Xia Xun's face.
Definitely, the tip of her eyebrows raised slightly, and there was a hint of lust in her cuteness.

It was the eighth day of Mochou's poetry reception. The gangsters who spread "rumors" were never caught. Ying Tianfu Yin and the chief officer of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division were called into the palace by Zhu Yunwen every three days to reprimand them. The two of them were disgraced.
After leaving the palace, a large-scale manhunt was carried out among the people, causing a lot of confusion. Apart from further expanding the influence of King Yan's secret spies, it was of no use.
People who do business in the market are still quite worried. They don’t know when the police from Yingtian Mansion or the patrol soldiers from the Wucheng Army and Horses Division will come like crazy to interrogate and inspect. Zhang Jun’s "Four Pines, Bamboos and Plums"
"Baodian" is much quieter.
His shop is located next to the corner gate of Gongyuan, in an alley. It is not very eye-catching. Once the corner gate is opened, the academy is inside. When students exit the corner gate, directly opposite is a very elegant painting of the Three Friends of Suihan.
When you walk in, the fragrance of ink hits your face, it is Zhang Jun's Four Treasures of the Study store.
The weather is getting colder. The winter in the south of the Yangtze River is wet and cold. It is not very freezing, and you will never feel the cold wind like a knife cutting flesh. But the humid, cold air is sticky and uncomfortable.
A scholar wearing a blue cotton jacket walked into "Pine, Bamboo and Plum" in this humid and cold weather.
"Master, look at this square inkstone. It has fine mud, light yellow color, novel shape, and simple and elegant decoration. Look, the oval on the forehead of the inkstone is the inkstone. How convenient. If you buy it, I will give you a square of paint.
Box, what do you think of this square jade-colored lacquer box?"
The scholar who was shopping was obviously a poor scholar. He was wearing thin clothes. It was a cold day, and his face was a little pale from the cold. After being fooled by Zhang Jun, he finally gritted his teeth and took out the sweaty bunch of copper coins. Zhang
Jun quickly packed it for him, and the scholar walked away with the inkstone in his arms like a treasure. At this time, the scholar in the back wearing a blue quilted robe stepped forward with a smile.
Zhang Jun smiled and said: "Sir, what do you want to buy? The four treasures of the study, our store has everything..."
The handsome young man smiled slightly and said: "I don't want to buy the Four Treasures of the Study, I just want to print something."
Zhang Jun was startled and replied: "I'm sorry, the shop only sells the Four Treasures of the Study and does not print anything."
"Haha, it's just a few simple articles. It's not worth it to make a single edition. Yinfang Bookstore is not willing to accept this business. I think your store is quite leisurely. Do you really not want to accept this business?"
As the young man spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and pushed it forward gently.
Zhang Jun picked it up and took a look, and his face suddenly changed color. The crumpled piece of paper was the poster distributed that night at the Mochou Poetry Club. Opposite him, the young man stopped smiling, pursed his thin lips, and revealed a sharp look in his eyes.
of murderous intent.
Zhang Jun shouted loudly and kicked his foot, causing the desk to fly out. The scholar was already prepared and stepped aside, causing the desk to crash against the opposite wall and fall apart. At the same time,
Several big men from the Jinyi Guards had already rushed through the door. Zhang Jun took a step back, ducked down, and pulled out a narrow-edged sword from under the shelf where the Four Treasures of the Study were placed.
The handsome scholar took two steps back slightly, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "You have to live!"
"I heard something happened to 'Songzhumei'!"
"What's the matter? Boss Zhang is from King Yan?"
"The imperial court is rebellious? Didn't you see it? He is a very kind man. Didn't he say that the soldiers under the command of King Yan are all barbarians outside the Great Wall, and they are all vicious?"
The first people to spread the news were two small businessmen passing by in the alley, and then many people came running in from outside the alley to watch the excitement, and they all whispered to each other and talked about it.
Soon, they saw Zhang Jun, who was covered in blood and tied up, being escorted out of the "Songzhumei" Wenfangsibao store. They could faintly see several people inside the store, searching it like they were tearing down a house.
Zhang Jun was captured alive. He was escorted dejectedly and walked out of the alley step by step. More and more people were watching on the roadside. No one noticed that a vendor selling "Zhuangyuan Cake" in the crowd was carrying him.
The hanging basket was quietly pointed at Zhang Jun. There was a small hole in the basket, but who would notice him...
