Ning Gu

Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains from the Hudi in the Northwest since the establishment of the dynasty and the opening of the border areas for trade. After the integration of the three dynasties, it is also compatible with the Taoism of the Central Plains.

It also got the deliberate support of the powerful ministers of the former court, so as to make it easier for Zhaoxing to travel to Luoxian Mountain. Many family members of Fufeng are influenced to believe in gods and Buddhas. Even the temples and Taoist temples in Fufeng City have seven or eight Seats can be said to be all over the place.

And the Lingjian temple that Zhao Zuo asked Xie Wuling to take a look at was the one nearer to Linhuang City, where poor scholars usually lived here, and left one after another after the end of the autumn.

And this year's fasting and bathing day is next to Qiu Wei, and there should be many more people living there than usual.On the contrary, Xie Wuling did a great job of covering up the eyes and ears of Duke Yong's mansion.

What's more, since he made it clear with Sang Luo, Sang Luo rarely disturbed him, if he went in and out of the mansion, there would naturally be a little boy following him, and that little boy was only eight or nine years old, and he was said to be Xie Wuling's book boy.

When Xie Wuling went to the tea shop to listen to the news, the little boy stood behind him, not knowing whether he dared or what, and he rarely spoke.

Later, for some unknown reason, Xie Wuling bought a candied haws, originally intending to take it back to the young daughter of the housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion, but the boy swallowed his saliva when he saw him holding the candied haws.

Xie Wuling gave it to him without any hassle, but after that the little boy became more courageous, and would joke with him from time to time, even more so yesterday, he took an inch and moved directly into the ear room in the courtyard where Xie Wuling lived.

As a result, the little novice came back from Zhao Zuo's place last night, climbed over the fence and didn't dare to enter the ear room, and went directly into Xie Wuling's room, which shocked Xie Wuling, and was even buried by Xie Wuling.

The little novice waited for Xie Wuling to leave his room today, so he found a good opportunity to get on the carriage that he was going to Lingjian Temple.

Xie Wuling got into the carriage, he was not surprised to see the little novice, what was surprising was that the little boy also came up, Xie Wuling thought he was naive and didn't take it to heart, let him come up.

As soon as the car curtain was lifted, the little boy was dumbfounded looking at the little novice novice.

It was Xie Wuling who looked at this embarrassing situation, made a sound, and slowed down.

He only looked at the little novice next to him, and said nonsense: "This is the master of Lingjian Temple who sent me to pick me up." Then he pointed to the boy opposite, "This is from my room..." Xie Wuling paused, He couldn't think of the boy's name for a while, so he said in a hurry, "My little brother."

"Amitabha, the little benefactor is well."

The little boy was also led by him to put his hands together and make a Buddha ceremony: "Hello, little master, little master Taoist cultivating Buddha?"

The little novice lied without blinking an eye: "The little monk is not enough in Taoism, and he has a karma with the Buddha, so the master asked the little monk to practice the predestined relationship. Fate is blessing."

The little novice's serious words confused the little boy, but Xie Wuling couldn't. Xie Wuling coughed twice, suppressing the almost uncontrollable smile in his throat.

The little boy didn't continue to entangle, but instead told Xie Wuling jokes in the market, which aroused the little novice's interest. The two half-year-old children talked with great interest in the carriage, but Xie Wuling's interest in listening to it faded.

He was so interested that he flew to the Taoist temple early.

After getting off the carriage, the little novice was so sensible that he took the little boy to see the spring he just mentioned, and Xie Wuling was left aimlessly walking between the guest houses, looking for that person.

Xie Wuling felt that he had almost reached the end of the guest house, and he hadn't seen that person yet.Thinking if he missed it, he turned around and said to look at it again.

Unexpectedly, when she turned around and looked up, the man was standing not far away, seeming to be looking at him.

He stepped forward at a pace that he didn't know how fast, but it was Zhao Zuo who said first: "How are you?"

"Well, Pingzhi also wants to congratulate Wang Sun." Xie Wuling said and made a bow.

Looking up, he saw Zhao Zuo's haggard face, so he asked more: "What's the matter? Wang Sun's complexion is not very good, tired of seeing me?"

Zhao Zuo was startled when he heard this, and then explained: "I'm busy recently." Zhao Zuo saw that Xie Wuling's gaze was still fixed, so he led him into a guest house, sat down and said, "My brother is going out to build a mansion, father. The king asked him to go to the Ministry of Punishment to learn something."

Hearing this, Xie Wuling shifted his gaze, seemingly unintentionally said: "What does it have to do with you?"

"The Ministry of Punishment suppressed a candidate case, and he came to consult me."

Xie Wuling seemed to be dissatisfied, and he said: "You are a rich man with a lot of education, and my younger brothers only ask you, a person who has not yet become an official?"

Zhao Zuo saw this side of Xie Wuling for the first time, and he really didn't know that he was so temperamental, and he didn't say that Zhao Zuo didn't know, even Xie Wuling only realized today that he still had such a stingy time.

But he was just afraid that others would take the scar of not being an official and ridicule Zhao Zuo.

"Then Mr. Zhaoxing, what do you mean?"

"Pointing out the way, your elder brother has gained Zhao Xingshi, let him ask Duke Yong." Xie Wuling looked at Zhao Zuo, raised his eyebrows, and smiled.

When Zhao Zuo heard him mention Duke Yong, he always felt that there was something else hidden in his smile now, so he said: "Don't interfere, I will guide the way."

"Well, I'm a scholar and I don't have any long-term possessions, so I just live in Buddha."

"This is the best, the water is muddy..."

"Is Cong Shanlang afraid that I will get dirty?" Xie Wuling's peach eyes were filled with a smile, and he was very charming. Zhao Zuo had seen it several times in Zhaoxing, but now he didn't dare to look at it, so he only responded in a low voice. .

He thought about the water behind this all night, but he couldn't see through it. He didn't want Xie Wuling to come to the muddy water, but it is feasible to show Duke Yong the way.

"Okay, then the king and grandson have to do something about me."

"what?"

"Uncle Wang said that there is going to be a wind blowing at the mouth of the kiln in Xishan. You can't touch it either."

After hearing this, Zhao Zuo frowned and said, "Stay on the sidelines?"

"Well, let's watch from the sidelines even with the matter of the Duke of Yong's Mansion. You can't control it, and..." You can't.

"Even you don't care?"

"Why, Cong Shanlang wants to control me?" The brilliance in Xie Wuling's eyes became even brighter.

Zhao Zuo hesitated for a long time, but he didn't answer. Xie Wuling didn't want to tease him anymore, and continued: "I don't care if I want to. Even me, I don't care."

"Okay." Zhao Zuo didn't hesitate this time, and answered simply.As for what to do in the end, in the final analysis, Xie Wuling has no control over it.

Xie Wuling asked him to "trust him, listen to him, and follow him", and asked him for two people, but he still hasn't asked him who those two people are.On the contrary, he entrusted the little novice to send a letter, a love letter, only one or two characters were emphasized, but it was still the four characters "Walk alone in the green mountains".

Zhao Zuo couldn't understand the deep meaning.But literally, he could see clearly.He also knew what it meant for Xie Wuling to talk to him again today.

He had to watch from the sidelines, watching the grievances between the Wang family and the Liang family.If he really wants to stand out, he can only disregard his relationship with the Wang family with his father.

And the only way to get rid of it is that from now on, he can't do this wading.

This is also the easiest path that Wang Shuo and Xie Wuling chose for him, using the first road paved for him by the Wang family.

"This one was left to me by Prime Minister Wang." Zhao Zuo took out a booklet from his arms. Xie Wuling had seen it at Senior Brother Huixuan's place. When Huixuan told him about the Fufeng family that night, he took out this booklet. , gave it to him, and asked him to write it down one by one.

Now that Zhao Zuo is showing it to him, doesn't it mean that he will hand over half of his life?

The brilliance in Xie Wuling's eyes was still there, and he asked knowingly: "Since it's yours, why should you give it to me?"

"Use it to book a student seat for Xianzhi." Zhao Zuo frowned.

Xie Wuling pushed the booklet back and said: "That's not enough. You need at least three boxes of gold leaves. You haven't been to Yangzhou, so you don't know. I'm very greedy for money. I wrote new words for those ladies and sisters to collect gold. Ye Er's."

Xie Wuling spoke, only to remember that Zhao Zuo didn't like to hear him go in and out of Fireworks and Willow Lane, so he pursed his lips and kept silent.

Then he raised his hand again, motioning for Zhao Zuo to put away the booklet, then called the little boy back down the mountain.

When he came back, he met Duke Yong who came back from the outside world, and asked Xie Wuling where he came from. Sang Luo, who was at the door, answered for him a sentence of fasting and holiday, and returned from the temple.Duke Yong entered the mansion without asking any further questions.

The remaining Sang Luo frowned at the door, stood with him for a while, stopped for a long time before he wanted to speak, and entered the mansion without saying anything else.

And Zhao just beat Xie Wuling to visit on the third day after he returned from Lingjian temple.

At that time, Yong Guogong was in Xie Wuling's courtyard, invited him to play chess, and said a few words about the situation in the court, but also in a secretive way.

Xie Wuling picked up a few nice words in his head and fooled him.

It was at this time that the boy came to the yard and said that the third prince had arrived.It provoked Zhao Xiu to give him a sideways glance, and said he wanted the servant to take him to the main hall.

But he was stopped by Xie Wuling, Duke Yong thought that the boy would not be able to make big waves, so he had someone lead him to Xie Wuling's yard.
