Chapter 226 Seeing the road ahead and recognizing myself
In the study
Liang Yuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, wears the crimson official robe of a third-grade civil servant with peacock patches and a black gauze hat. He sits on a chair made of huanghuali wood. Next to him is a blue-patterned auspicious cloud cover bowl from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty.
The hot steam of tea spreads the fragrance of Biluochun.
Not long after, the servant of the Yang family, who was standing by the threshold with his hands lowered, said softly: "I have seen the master.
When Liang Yuan heard this, he stood up from his chair like a spring, walked a few steps quickly, walked around a red sandalwood glass pine and crane screen, and saw a smile on his fat, fair face.
At that time, Yang Guochang, the chief minister of the cabinet and the bachelor of Huagaidian, had already crossed the threshold, and the two looked at each other.
"En Prime Minister." Liang Yuan lowered his eyes, bowed and saluted, and said: "I am really uneasy to disturb En Prime Minister."
"Wen Yun, why didn't you take a bath today?" Yang Guochang smiled and didn't say anything. He asked casually, and with the help of his son Yang Sihong, he walked around the screen and entered the inner hall.
Liang Yuan stood up quickly, walked forward slowly, followed suit, and stood in front of the case. He looked at Yang Guochang who was sitting down after spreading a mattress on the Taishi chair. He cupped his hands and said, "Hui Enxiang, Liangjiang, Huguang, Fujian"
The chief secretaries of Zhejiang provinces have sent letters to the Ministry of Household Affairs, stating that the transshipment of autumn grain has been handed over to the Caoliang Guards under the control of Governor Du Jitong for transportation to Beijing. However, the transportation capacity of the Caoliang Guards is insufficient, so they requested the Warehouse Management Office of the Ministry of Households.
Send a ship to meet them."
The grain storage areas of Shenjing Chang'an or the Sanfu Land are mainly in Taicang and Yongfengcang in Huazhou. In Shenjing City, the Ministry of Households manages 87 warehouses to ensure the safety of Shenjing's military, civilians, and officials.
Grain supply.
Yang Guochang said: "Then send ships to help.
"Previously, His Highness King Qi was in charge of this matter," Liang Yuan said softly, glanced at Yang Guochang's face, and said: "Now His Highness King Qi has been banned from the mansion, and members of the Sanhe Gang in Dongcheng have also been promoted to the Five Cities Military and Horse Division.
The arrest of Jia Heng, Enxiang, has greatly delayed the arrival of autumn grains in the capital." At this moment, the uprooting of the Sanhe Gang was widely spread in Shenjing, but the confiscation of homes to obtain more than 10 million taels of property was, after all, limited to
Jinyi Mansion and Jia Heng have not yet spread quickly.
In fact, even in the era of mobile phones in later generations, it is impossible to be so fast. There is an information lag.
Liang Yuan was reprimanded by Jia Heng because of his previous attack on Wengu. He had a grudge in his heart. Hearing that the Sanhe Gang was being hunted all over the city the day before yesterday, he thought he had a chance, so he went to the Yang Mansion to lodge a complaint.
This move is naturally to take advantage of the situation.
Yang Guochang's old face showed a trace of contemplation, and he frowned and said: "Yesterday, the East City was extremely noisy. I heard that Jia Yunhui led the Jinyi Mansion and mobilized soldiers from Guoyong Camp to blockade the East City and arrested many people?"
Liang Yuan said angrily: "I was about to tell Enxiang that Jia Yunhui, a young man who has achieved great success, has become more and more arrogant recently. The court asked him to investigate the case of beating and maiming a candidate for the examination. Who would have thought that he would use chicken feathers as arrows and be good at playing tricks?"
Jingying, Dasuo, the whole city, wantonly implicated innocent people, and many grain ship sailors and laborers were thrown into the prison of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, which greatly affected the transportation of autumn grain."
Yang Guochang was silent for a moment and said: "He received the instructions from the Holy Emperor to mobilize the troops with the Emperor's Sword. The cabinet has a secret order on file."
The implication is that if you use this matter to criticize others, you won't be able to get away from them at all.
When Emperor Chongping first awarded Jia Heng the Emperor's Sword, he still went to give the cabinet some peace of mind later, but he did not specify Jia Heng's use of the Emperor's Sword in mobilizing troops.
Liang Yuan was startled for a moment and said: "But Jia Yunhui is so unscrupulous. When he is sent by the emperor, he only punishes the top culprits. How can he throw all the ordinary people of the Sanhe Gang into prison in one fell swoop? Such a wanton plan for a big prison is completely unkind.
The heart of forgiveness is actually contrary to the name of virtue."
Yang Guochang pondered, and suddenly looked at Yang Sihong, whose lips were moving but hesitated to speak, and said: "What do you want to say?
Yang Sihong said: "Father, I heard that the leader of the Sanhe Gang came to pick a fight. As a result, he secretly arranged for people from the Jinyi Mansion to be captured, and Dongcheng was uprooted by him."
When Yang Guochang heard this, he shook his head and said: "He did his job very neatly, but he only wanted to run his own job and ignored the overall situation of the court. He was really hasty and rash. Now the 10 million shi from the provinces entering the capital
If the grain is delayed in entering the warehouse, it will not affect the price of grain in Shenjing, but it will only cause unrest in people's hearts."
Liang Yuan's eyes lit up, and he nodded: "What Enxiang said is true. These lucky people only care about inviting flattery, and completely ignore the overall situation of the court. Enxiang, you have always been upright, and you cannot allow these people to jump up and down and cause damage."
It's a great situation for the court to be stable." Yang Guochang looked unmoved, thought for a while, and said in a clear voice: "I will report this matter to the Holy Father tomorrow morning when I go to court. You can also write a letter tomorrow to report the matter in detail.
That is to say, there is no need to impeach him. Jia Yunhui is now in the royal family and has several meals left in the palace."
He had also vaguely heard about the feud between his subordinate Liang Shilang and Jia Yunhui. He had suffered an unreasonable disaster due to the incident of Fa Dengwengu, so he could understand why he criticized the young powerful man in this way.
When Liang Yuan heard this, his heart trembled, and he said, "Thank you for your kindness. I will go back and write the memorial right now."
That's right, now that Jia Heng's son, the Holy Family, is flourishing, it's hard to compete with him.
Yang Guochang waved his hand and said: "Go ahead. Just work hard. A few rumors are not enough. The Holy One knows everything and will not use it."
This is encouraging your subordinates.
When Liang Yuan heard this, excitement appeared on his fat face and he said, "Thank you very much for your kindness.'
Yang Guochang encouraged Liang Yuan a few more words and then ordered Liang Yuan to go back.
Yang Guochang secretly shook his head.
"Father
"Liang Yuan was lucky enough to pass the first grade in the department. He was promoted to the Minister of Household Affairs because of his ability to manage affairs. Compared with Qi Yan, he is not equipped with enough weapons." Yang Guochang said.
Yang Sihong's eyes flashed, and he knew he was talking about Qi Kun, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue. His nickname was Yan Xun, and he could be regarded as one of his allies.
Not mentioning that Yang Guochang and his son were discussing the situation of the court, they said that in Qingxu Temple, Jia Heng and Jia Mu had finished their lunch, listened to the opera, and were preparing to go down to the attic and go out for a walk.
Compared with people of this era, he was not accustomed to opera. Just as he was about to get up, he saw a woman coming up the stairs, walked to Sister Feng's side, and whispered a few words in her ear.
Sister Feng's expression changed slightly, she stood up, called Ping'er, got up from her seat, walked to Jia Heng, and winked.
Jia Heng frowned, but without saying anything, he walked out of the attic.
Xiangyun was watching the show at another table. When he saw it, he tugged on the sleeves of Tanchun and Daiyu, pursed his lips, and said with a smile, "Sister Lin, third sister, let's go and have a look."
While Tanchun was watching the play, more than half of his mind was focused on Jia Heng. He blinked his bright eyes, looked at Daiyu beside him, and also left his seat and stood up.
Since everyone was listening to the play, it was not surprising that many people left the table to relieve themselves on the way.
On Jia Heng's side, following Sister Feng, Ping'er left the attic and walked to the eaves of the corridor, where he was stunned.
But he saw Taoist Zhang, who had a goatee under his chin, holding a little Taoist priest. His face was a little worried. When he saw Jia Heng and Sister Feng, he said softly: "Uncle Heng, Mistress Lian, Xiaodao invites you."
Jia Heng frowned and said, "This is the old god?"
Taoist Zhang said with a smile: "This kid just bumped into a female family member, which is already a sin. Uncle Heng gave me two taels of silver. I really feel sorry for him."
Jia Heng frowned and said, "What do I think? I gave him two taels and asked him to buy some fruits to eat. When he came out just now, I forgot to tell you.'
Taoist Zhang smiled and said: "Uncle Heng, how can this be done?"
Jia Heng smiled and said: "How can you not do it? In the mountain gate, if you add sesame oil, you will also add money. It's nothing to reward him for caring for the young. Why, is Taoist Zhang still planning to take it back and give it to me?"
If you want to go back, you will have no identity.
"I don't dare, I don't dare, I just pulled him over to kowtow to the uncle and say thank you.
Taoist Zhang said quickly and pulled the little Taoist to kowtow to Jia Heng.
"Okay, it's not worth taking it seriously." Jia Heng stepped forward and gave him a hand, saying, "Let's take him out to play."
Taoist Zhang agreed.
Sister Feng watched this scene until Jia Heng persuaded Taoist Zhang to leave, then she stepped forward and said softly: "Brother Heng, just give him two taels of money. If you give him two taels for one shot, the girl in the house will also pay for it every month."
Only two taels." Mouth
Jia Heng said: "You're a kid, if you slapped me just now, you might be slapped for good or bad."
Sister Feng:
Ping'er also smiled and said softly: "Uncle Heng is right. The child should go back and stop having nightmares."
Hearing this, Sister Feng glanced at Ping'er with a half-smile but said in a charming voice: "My Ping'er is a Bodhisattva-hearted person. In the past, I was criticized behind the back by those long-tongued women, but now I'm fine. I'm looking for an Arhat."
Protector, don’t be afraid to speak out anymore.”
We haven't even become a family yet, but this little hooves is beating the drums at the side, asking you to send them to the house sooner or later to knead your two white dough balls.
"My aunt, how can she be so rude and talkative, Amitabha?" Ping'er's pretty face changed slightly. She clearly saw Sister Feng talking about gods and Buddhas, so she quickly proclaimed the Buddha's name.
Sister Feng chuckled lightly, then looked at Jia Heng, who still looked serious, and asked: "Brother Heng, when will we go back?"
Jia Heng looked at the sky and said, "It's not the right time."
Sister Feng smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go and accompany the old lady.
After saying that, he didn't even call Ping'er, he just twisted his slender waist and returned to the attic.
Ping'er's bright eyes flashed under Liuye's slender eyebrows and said: "Uncle, Second Grandma, she
Jia Heng glanced at the plump-faced Ping'er, nodded, and said, "Just try to persuade her more in the future."
Ping'er lowered his eyes and responded softly.
After Jia Heng finished speaking, he turned around and walked toward the circular corridor shaded by bamboo trees, and said in a clear voice: "You three are hiding wherever you are, and you don't have to worry about snakes under your feet."
But just now he noticed the prying eyes, which could hide Sister Feng's eyes, but not him.
Shi Xiangyun took Tanchun with him, and Daiyu was peeking behind the bamboo fence. Suddenly she met that sharp gaze and said "Ah", "Brother Heng, what are you doing?"
However, there was a piece of gravel under his feet. When his feet slipped, he said "Ouch" and fell down the steps to the side.
Daiyu and Tanchun exclaimed when they saw this, but when they saw Xiangyun's round apple face about to have a close contact with the stone, their two small faces turned pale with fright.
At this moment, I saw a figure flash past quickly, like a gust of wind, causing the bamboo leaves to sway. The person's hand was holding Xiangyun.
Jia Heng felt a softness in his palms, but without thinking too much, he pulled Shi Xiangyun into his arms with all his strength, half-hugging him from behind, and said in a low voice: "Why are you so rash?" 2
i Shi Xiangyun had a round apple face, and his face turned pale with fright. He stretched out his hand to cover the hills that were beginning to take shape, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Heng, you scared me to death just now.
Daiyu and Tanchun also turned around, took Xiangyun's little hand and asked, "Sister Yun, are you okay?"
After checking Xiangyun, he felt a little relieved when he saw that he was not injured.
Jia Heng naturally let go of Shi Xiangyun, raised his eyes, glanced at Daiyu and Tanchun with cold eyes, frowned and asked: Why did you three sneak out?"
Tan Chun said in a clear voice: "Brother Heng, Sister Yun asked me to come out and take a look. I heard you talking here and it was not convenient for me to come out, so I hid here."
Daiyu's eyes were bright and undulating, her lips were pursed and she was silent.
Jia Heng said softly: "Then don't drill into the corners. Not to mention snake and insect bites, even if they bump into each other, it's not a joke."
Tan Chun lowered his eyelashes slightly, feeling a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "That's what Brother Heng said."
Xia Daiyu nodded and said nothing. (Wood
Xiangyun didn't know what to think of at this moment. A pair of blushes gradually appeared on her frightened frost-white face. Fortunately, the apple-faced girl's cheeks were as rosy as rouge, so there was no clue.
.
Jia Heng didn't say much and said in a clear voice: "Okay, you go back to the attic to listen to the show. We will go back later."
With that said, he waved his hands and planned to leave.
Tan Chun raised his beautiful head and said in a clear voice: "Brother Heng, what about you?"
"I don't really like listening to plays and walking around." Jia Heng paused, looked at Tan Chun, and said with a chuckle.
Speaking of which, since he came to this world, he really hasn't come out to relax much. Now Qingxu Temple and the surrounding mountain scenery and waterfalls look very peaceful, so he just wants to take a look around.
Tan Chun's bright eyes sparkled, her peach blossom lips twitched, and she mustered up the courage to say, "Brother Heng, I don't really like listening to plays, so let's go for a walk together."
When Jia Heng heard this, he looked at the charming and beautiful girl with deep eyes. Tan Chun was wearing a red cloak, with a bright red background and a white bamboo leaf print double-breasted jacket underneath, a white cross-collared coat, and a white trousers.
The pleated skirt adds a bit of girlish enthusiasm and romance to the charming and bright temperament.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and was about to speak.
Xiangyun regained her composure at this moment. She was originally a charming and innocent girl, and said: "Brother Heng, where are you going to be naughty? Take me with you, I will go too." Tan Chun:
Daiyu blinked her eyes and deliberately pulled Xiangyun to stop messing around, but she didn't really want to go back to listen to the show.
Jia Heng looked back at Daiyu and Xiangyun, and after thinking about it, instead of letting Xiangyun run around, why not take him for a walk. Anyway, one sheep is herding, and two sheep are driving. Thinking of this, he
He chuckled and said, "Okay, let's go for a walk together."
Tan Chun Yurong paused slightly. Although she was a little disappointed, she still smiled and said: "Brother Heng, this Qingxu Temple has been practiced for more than sixty years. It was built by the old prince and several nobles back then."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "This Taoist temple is simple and elegant, and there is quite a lot to enjoy."
Everyone walked slowly and played around.
Jia Heng walked to the forest-like stone tablets on both sides of the corridor. He stood in front of a stone tablet that was as tall as one person. He stretched out his hand and gently touched the talisman and seal tablet, and said with emotion: "Looking at this tablet is like bathing in the wind and rain. I don't know how many springs and autumns it has been."
Daiyu Chunshan's bright eyes were as bright as water under her eyebrows. When she came closer, she followed Jia Heng's example, stretching out her slender hands and stroking the stone tablet. She felt it was cold and smooth to the touch, which was a bit different at noon in autumn.
With a feeling of excitement, he looked at the talisman on it, opened his lips lightly, and said casually: "Brother Heng, does he know what kind of talisman is painted on it?"
Jia Heng said: "Is this this? This is the Taishang's secret magic talisman to control the house. There are seventy-two lines in total, all outlined on the front, back, left and right."
In his previous life, because of his grandfather, he watched and read in middle school
J children N children U big
Daozang, who has practiced calligraphy well for this purpose, is no stranger to these talismans and seals.
Daiyu's pretty face showed surprise, and she whispered: "Brother Heng, how do you know this?"
Xiangyun and Tanchun also cast two surprised glances at Jia Heng.
Jia Heng said warmly: "I used to read more miscellaneous books, and read a lot of these Taoist books and Buddhist scriptures. However, you should not read these Taoist books and Buddhist scriptures when you go back. Such books are the most empathic and reforming."
These words are almost the same as what Baochai said in the future.
Jia Heng said, feeling something in his heart, and turned to look at Daiyu.
In the previous version of the classic TV series Dream of Red Mansions, the actor who played Daiyu
However, Daiyu raised her pink face, her starry eyes flashed under her slender eyebrows, and said in a clear voice: "Brother Heng has read a lot of Taoist and Buddhist scriptures, but he has not seen any empathy or change." of."
After all, Lin was unwilling to stay dormant and couldn't hold back. However, he was still a little timid and his momentum was still a bit weaker.
Jia Heng smiled softly and looked at Daiyu, but said nothing.
However, Daiyu smiled and said nothing, which made her heart feel strange, and she gradually felt a little embarrassed.
That kind of look that looked at her as a little sister even though she was not much older than her, although she felt warm and amiable, she was also a bit unconvinced.
Tanchun chuckled and said:
“Brother Heng, you can’t act like an ordinary person
Measure it.
Xiangyun Lidou smiled slightly and said, "Brother Keheng is not a few years older than us."
Daiyu didn't say much, but stared at Jia Heng with her shining star eyes, waiting for the next sentence.
Jia Heng met Daiyu's gaze, thought for a while, and said slowly: "If you can see the road ahead clearly and recognize yourself clearly, no matter how many Taoist books or Buddhist scriptures you read, it will not change your feelings or change you. sex."
What kind of people would choose to find sustenance in Taoist books and Buddhist scriptures?
Either he is confused about the way forward, or he is confused about himself.
The former is characterized by sudden changes and escaping from reality, while the latter is characterized by spiritual emptiness and the inability to find an anchor of self-worth.
But this is all without having its own worldview and methodology.
Daiyu's starry eyes blinked, her heart trembled slightly, and she murmured, "You can see the road ahead clearly, and you can recognize yourself clearly."
Tanchun also looked at Jia Heng, thinking about the young man's words, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Jia Heng said softly: "At that time, you would not have had the idea of escaping from the world and pursuing a pure life. You would only say, how many things are always urgent, the world is changing, time is running out, ten thousand years is too long, I only seize the day and night."
For those who have endless fun fighting with heaven, people, and earth.
Can Taoist books and Buddhist scriptures change the temperament of such people? They can in turn change the nature of Taoist books and Buddhist scriptures! What kind of illusory things like seeking immortality and eternity in the universe have nothing to do with them? They just want to In the age of awakening, use the limited length of your life to live as wide as a river in the ordinary world.
Daiyu looked at the young man, her bright eyes gleaming under her eyebrows, and her heart echoed word by word, "So many things are always urgent, the world is changing, time is running out, ten thousand years is too long, I just want to fight for it" Day and night." Tan Chun's bright eyes glowed, and he looked at the young man intently, with a hint of emotion gradually welling up in his eyes.
This is her brother Heng
Looking at the two people standing stunned, Jia Heng said: "Okay, don't think about this. Let's go up the mountain and have a look. There seems to be a pavilion with a waterfall in the back mountain."
Having said that, go ahead.
Tanchun and Daiyu held hands and followed the tall and straight young man up the stairs.
