Autumn arrived in the blink of an eye. After a hundred days of straining his waist and hips, Chu Qing welcomed the first autumn rain while rubbing his waist every day.
Dapu Temple can no longer be "opened". Now, if any common people go to offer incense, they will easily be talked about for the rest of their lives.
Not only Dapu Temple, but also several temples around Changjing were "exposed". They used all kinds of methods to make money. On the surface, they persuaded people to do good, but in fact they were full of men stealing and women prostitutes. Those monks were more lavish than the last, and they had fields under their names.
He has numerous properties, and there are even many so-called eminent monks who have already married, with more than one wife, and children who are raising them in the house.
As Chu Qing said, in addition to persuading people to do good, religion is essentially about restraining oneself. It cannot even restrain oneself. Instead, it uses this restraint to restrain others to achieve self-interest. It is hypocritical and extremely hypocritical.
The hypocritical monks, their hypocritical masks were ruthlessly pulled to the ground by Qianqiying, exposing their ugly faces to the world. Money, money, money, these so-called monks, so-called temples
, have long deviated from the bright, just, and kind beliefs they said, and everything is just for money.
As for Beijing Cha, the thunder was louder and the raindrops were heavier. Huang Laosi didn't know what he was thinking. He changed generals before the battle. Originally, the prime minister Nangong Xi was in charge of this matter. The emperor asked the prince to participate again. No surprise.
, Xiao Bangtan Changyu achieved significant results in just one month. Not many officials were arrested, but as many as 57 officials were promoted to official positions, 12 of whom were veterans who went to court every day.
.
It is worth mentioning that among the fifty-seven people, fifty-eight were dissatisfied with Qianqiying or Chu Qing. The extra one was the newly appointed minister of Honglu Temple, from Guanghuai Road in the East China Sea.
People come in the morning, official robes are issued at noon, and people enter the prison in the afternoon.
Chang Yu captured him, and the first thing the prince said after he went there was, why did you tell the Japanese bandits mission at noon today that you would give them bad breath?
Then nothing happened. The minister of Honglu Temple, who had been put in jail the same day he took office, was captured by the imperial guards.
The crime is very funny, contradicting the prince.
Since Chu Qing came back, he had Tan Ma squat at the entrance of Fanguan every day. Whenever a Ying thief envoy went out for a walk, he would follow him closely. Even if he spit everywhere, he had to give him a verbal education.
The big mouth is shouting at you, give it a good education, commonly known as oral education. If you don’t accept it, go to Jingzhao Mansion and report it to an official. Oh yes, Jingzhao Mansion doesn’t care, then you can go to Honglu Temple. What, Honglu Temple has no officials.
That's nonsense, isn't there an old man? Go find that old man.
In short, now the whole capital knows that Chu Qing doesn't like the Ying envoys, and is trying every possible way to cause trouble for them, and it's still the unreasonable kind of trouble, but no one dares to say anything, whether they are officials or aristocratic families, even if they don't know at all
Why is Chu Qing so unwilling to see the Ying people?
The imperial court is not a major blood change, but there are many new faces in various government offices in the capital. As for whether these new faces are fresh winds or will unknowingly merge into the black mist and turn into indescribable objects, Chu
Qing will wait and see. He will carefully protect the fresh wind. If it turns into a destructive monster in the black mist, he can accept it. It will just turn into a violent storm and chop down with knives.
The two matters of Beijing inspection and temple accounts have come to an end. Among the three matters, only Changlu's matter, which Fu San is responsible for, has not made much progress.
Although Chu Qing didn't urge him, the palace, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment urged him many times, but the third brother was still indifferent. He accompanied Chu Qing when he should, sent Ma Ying away when he should, and looked like he was doing nothing all day long.
Some people seem to be doing nothing every day, but they are thinking all the time, while some people seem to be doing nothing, but they are really doing nothing, just like Chu Qing.
At this time, Chu Qing was lying on the bed rubbing his waist.
"Old Sun, it's been several days, and I don't feel like there's been much progress."
Sun An angrily washed his hands in the basin. After wiping them, he said: "Including today, it's only three days. At least it will take about ten days to see results."
Chu Qing put on his clothes and sat on the bed, laughing and saying, "Thank you, Eunuch Sun."
Sun An burst into laughter.
A few days ago, Chu Qing entered the palace. When he had nothing to do, he asked Huang Laosi to brag. As a result, Huang Laosi boasted very vigorously. Chu Qing always looked absent-minded and kept rubbing his waist.
The fourth child looked at it and wondered what kind of business this was. With a wave of his hand, Sun An became a part-time masseur. He came to the Qianqiying Yamen Office every night to help Chu Qing activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
In the words of the fourth child, when he injured his muscles and bones before, Sun An massaged him, and the effect was pretty good, mainly because it didn’t cost any money. If the massage was not done well, not only would he not spend any money, but he might even earn some money.
Even though Sun An was a skinny old eunuch, his hands were very strong and he exerted great effort. His forehead was covered in sweat.
Fu San made a pot of tea and placed it next to Sun An.
The old eunuch was not serious about business. After finishing his work, he was not in a hurry to go back and serve the fourth child. He sat on a stool and sipped tea, enjoying this rare leisure time without the risk of having his salary deducted.
"Good tea, yes, is it tribute tea?"
"Yes, it was sent from Tao Mansion."
When mentioning this matter, Chu Qing was quite emotional. He remembered that when he first went to Tao Mansion, he drank "sawdust". Looking at now, Lao Tao asks his uncle to bring tea every now and then, and his treatment is getting better and better.
He always asked Chu Wensheng when he would come back and proposed marriage as soon as he came back.
"Eunuch Sun, I want to ask you something."
"You can do it as you say."
"We are all so familiar, don't talk about it, I'll be embarrassed."
Sun An laughed loudly.
Unknowingly, he finally understood why the fourth child was so indifferent to the tenth child. It was because when he was with the tenth child, no matter what his status was, there was always a sense of intimacy, like a long-time friend.
"That's not possible. It's fine if I don't know. If I know, you are half a master."
"Whatever." Chu Qing tied his clothes, Ge You slumped on the stool, looked out the window again, lowered his voice and asked: "Princess Qingyang, can you talk to me?"
A strange expression flashed across Sun An's face, but he didn't ask why he suddenly mentioned Princess Qingyang. He said directly: "I have been in the palace for more than three years. I have a cold temper, but I am very kind to the slaves in the palace.
, In addition to reading and writing poetry on weekdays, he rarely leaves the palace."
"Have you had any contact with the outside world?"
"Outside?" Sun An couldn't help but ask: "You mean... King Wu?"
"Including King Wu, have you contacted King Wu or anyone outside the palace?"
"I haven't heard of it. He has been out of the palace only a handful of times." Sun An's face became solemn: "In Qianqi Camp, it was found that King Wu had contact with Princess Qingyang?"
Chu Qing smiled and said: "As you say, they are father and daughter, so even if they keep in touch, it's normal."
In fact, Chu Qing just asked casually. The day before yesterday, he and Fu San went for a walk in Zhuangzi, the southern suburbs. Princess Qingyang came to Qianqiying again, saying that she wanted to see Xiao Yi. When she came back, Xiao Yi said that Princess Qingyang was a little...
Unusually, I asked about some things about Fu San.
"I don't dare to discuss matters concerning the Heavenly Family. However, I feel that if you feel something is wrong, you should inform Your Majesty."
"Maybe I'm overthinking it, oh yes, His Majesty said some time ago..."
Before he finished speaking, a detective came in and said, "Sir, the guards from the East Palace are here. They say that the Crown Prince has gone to the Chu Mansion to look for you. Since you are not here, I asked you to come over and talk about something."
"Prince?" Chu Qing was confused: "Why did the prince leave the palace at this time? Why did he come to Chu Mansion instead of coming to Qianqi Camp to find me?"
Sun An explained: "Due to scientific research these days, His Highness the Crown Prince always leaves the palace to go to the Ministry of Rites or the Ministry of Secretariat. There are also nights when he returns to the palace. Please go quickly. Don't keep His Highness the Crown Prince waiting for too long.
.”
"Okay, Eunuch Sun, please go back. We'll see you tomorrow. Try to fix my waist as soon as possible. I still have people... No, I still have things to do."
"Sure, I'll be cured in ten days at most."
"Shuan q."
After a few more polite words, the old eunuch left. Chu Qing twisted his waist and called Fu San, and the two rode horses to the Chu Mansion in Tai'anfang.
