Clam Pearl

Last night, Mr. Gu Xiaojun was bitten by a mosquito, and his left eyelid bit him twice. Therefore, today, Mr. Gu Xiaojun is very arrogant.

Early in the morning, Gu Zhao got up and went to Nancheng to see off his nephew and son-in-law. Lao Qian went all out this time and brought out half of the family's strong men from Renfu County, Longxi County.

Now Qian said that he believed that he was under the emperor's order, and he was still the agent No. [-]. Therefore, he decided that even if he risked his life, he had to complete the mission well, so as to live up to the grace of God.

Qian said that his current position is the Minister of Legal Affairs under the Qianding Division, and he also secretly has a position as a secret inspection censor, which he is not going to tell others.Anyway, if there is a problem in Juehu County in the future, he has the right to go directly to Datian Ting, which is different from ordinary people.

In this way, the niece, grandson, and niece and son-in-law were fooled by Gu Zhao into a barren land. It's really strange to think about it carefully.

But Gu Zhao is also unwilling to use other relatives in the family. First, those children don’t know much about quality, and second, the whole family looks the same.

The children of his fourth brother's family are lonely and need to take care of them. In the second place, Gu Zhaoxiang fell in love with the fact that the fourth brother's family has a small population, so naturally there are few entanglements. of.

Therefore, Gu Zhao uses Gu Maobing to speak with money, but not necessarily Gu Maode and Gu Maochang.

After sending Qian Shuo away, Gu Zhao sent the others back, leaving only a slave named Ade dragging Xiaoyu to the city. Today is not the same as before, and the south gate is actually a bit desolate and cold. .

Usually at this time, regardless of the gate, there are crowds of people rushing to the city.So this is why Grandpa Long Live, together with several princes and ministers of half court, sent Master Hui Yi out of the fortress at the east gate.

Thousands of great monks went out to preach. It was a big bustle. It is said that Grandpa Long Live pulled 100 carts of scriptures alone. In addition to carefully selecting each book, he also gave many pure gold Buddhist scriptures. The big Bodhisattva on the first Dharma chariot used more than 300 catties of gold powder alone, and the eight treasures were covered with gems of various colors. It is said that more than [-] gems were used. Grandma’s, it’s worth a house of copper coins, and now It's all cheaper for the wild savages.

In addition to the monk, Long Live God also ordered people to find well-known fur merchants all over the country and went with the team.

In this way, thousands of monks and thousands of businessmen went out of the fortress.

In order to celebrate this grand ceremony, the three princes also had fun, ordering several masters in the palace to compose music, and Tete performed it today to please Jinshang.

Today is a picky one. After ascending to the throne, all ostentation can be avoided if possible, and people will not go out if they can't go out. The grand ceremony that the late emperor liked, and the Daqing that he liked to hold, he would not hold at all.

Now he is willing to give it to the Golden Buddha, and he has paid for the travel expenses of thousands of monks out of his own pocket. This rare excitement naturally attracted people from all over the capital to watch. Door.

The south gate is cold, not only the gate is cold, but Gu Zhao's mood is also a little bit cold. Gu Maobing is leaving today, and Gu Zhao's side feels somewhat panicked. He couldn't understand this behavior of stealthily pitting those small tribes outside the Great Wall, so he became stubborn and resisted in his attitude.

He and Tata are fateful brothers, but now they take thousands of great monks to eat and drink other people's food. Gu Maobing feels very uncomfortable. When he left, he also kowtowed at the door, turned around and left.

Gu Zhao is also full of grievances, and there is no way to tell Gu Maobing that as a modern person, in his thinking, no matter how good Tata is, as long as Gu Zhao lives for a day, the barbarians outside the Great Wall want to establish a country, they want to Neither, unless he's dead.

If you want to recognize Zhao Chunrun as Tian Khan and godfather, then don't even think about it...

At this time, relatives misunderstood, and neighbors did not understand, Gu Zhao inevitably felt lonely as a hero, and his heart was desolate, and only the sound of camel bells remained in his ears.

Even Jin Shanzhu can't see the true meaning of the attitude towards Serbia that he is practicing now.As for Zhao Chunrun?In his opinion, it was nothing more than dozens of small tribes and tens of thousands of barbarians from far away. As long as Azhao was happy, he would be happy to make a fuss.

Furthermore, since Ah Zhao said, monks waste rice, throw it all outside the Great Wall!Zhao Chunrun immediately felt that this was a very good idea. It couldn't be better. There is a place to gather these monks, and it doesn't destroy the kindness of the monastery to protect him, and it doesn't violate the oath he made. Ah Zhao is really understanding.

Before Gu Zhao said this, Zhao Chunrun was really in trouble for a long time. He and Hui Yi can be regarded as having some affection, but now seeing him grow up, the emperor also has the emperor's difficulties.

It's really not suitable for so many great monks in Beijing. If you don't check it, you won't know it. If you check it, it's really shocking. If you don't mention it, you don't mention it. Now, out of ten monks, eight are for other purposes. Ordained.

Monks do not pay taxes, do not pay food, and have the right to be exempted from service. In addition, they are also born in temples today. Today's temples are even more domineering, especially Huiyi's disciples and grandchildren. They sit in the temple and read a few paragraphs. There are a large number of temple properties of unknown origin in the temple. These temple properties were invested in the temple by some local middle and lower peasants in order to avoid tax rates.

After investigation, in an upper county in Liang County, half of the land in the county belonged to the local temple, and the abbot of the local temple, according to his seniority, was actually Jinshang's nephew.Moreover, the matter of Liang County is not unique, it is just that the time is tight and there is no careful sorting out.

Did Imakami get angry when he found out?No one knew, but not long after this incident came out, thousands of monks came out of the fort today, and the leader of this team was the highly respected Master Hui Yi.

Zhao Chunrun thanked Lord Buddha again. His mentality is also that of the emperor, and there is no need to exist if there is a threat to him. Therefore, the current policy is that a monk must go to preach outside the Great Wall for ten years before he can be formally released.

Also, according to the new rule of one acre of ration land for a monk, how many monks do you have in your family, how many acres of land do you have, as for the excess?That is absolutely not allowed, and, now, those who donate land to temples will be automatically transferred to the national treasury.In addition, anyone who avoids corvee labor in the future, presumptuously shaves his head, becomes a monk under a name, has insatiable appetites, and pursues endless pursuits, once verified, he will be exiled for life!No mercy!

Being in ancient times, he silently resolved some foreseeable dangers, but no one praised him, he did so many great things, but no one understood, so Gu Zhao felt a sense of heroic loneliness in his heart.

Just like this, the lonely hero raised his chin slightly, rode Xiaoyu, and slowly entered the city.

At that moment, the south gate was quiet, and occasionally a series of camel bells could be heard from the other side of the street. I don't know when, all the people with status in Shangjing like to use a camel as a front.

Why camels are so popular now, literati explained in this way, camels have a gentle and pure personality and don’t compete with the world. Fear of the rich and powerful, spit on your face to express disdain, it is really satisfying.

Nowadays, there is a proverb that goes like this when Beijing and China swear at people?

"That guy is dark in his bones! If you don't get sprayed in the face by a camel, you don't know if he is dark in his heart?"

In this way, among the thousands of creatures in the world, literati only love camels, and they really like this kind of character.Thinking about it, these people want to slap someone unscrupulously, but they don't have the guts. After being envious, they only love camels from now on.

With such praise from the literati, Gu Zhao, who brought camels to Beijing, has nothing to do with it!His dandy style is really not worthy of Uncle Luo Tuo's arrogance, so people subconsciously forget about him.

Now the camels belong to everyone. Among them, red camels, purple camels, yellow camels, and white camels, white camels are the most expensive. A white camel with a slight mottled color is now only available in Shangjing for three hundred.

There is even a poem written by a famous person in Beijing last year:

The spine is even towering, and the hooves are wide and step on mountains and rivers.

Looking back at Qingmo, the crisp bell rings Yunge.

As soon as this poem came out, it was widely praised among the people. For a while, the madman sang countless various camel songs, camel orders, and camel poems.

But when Gu Zhao entered the south gate, when Xiaoyu heard the copper bell, she shook her body, turned her head, and turned around by herself, heading into the street over there.

Gu Zhao didn't care about it, it was rare to come out, so he let it go.

After walking for a while, Xiaoyu stopped at the door of a camel shop. Gu Zhao looked up at the signboard and knew that this was the very popular camel shop "Golden Camel King" in Beijing that Xinzai often said. Surnamed Wang, he was born in Laoyalang, Shanggu County.

In Xinzai's words, this guy got lucky, borrowed the young master's purple energy, and he made a fuss!

When Xinzai said this, he was very angry. You must know that Gu Zhao’s first camel was for the young master to play with. Who knew it would prosper and be made a fortune by others. Xinzai would inevitably feel a little jealous. Well, there is no envy, they are not lacking in this, their eyes are high.

Xiaoyu was used to being unscrupulous, and when she arrived at the door of the camel shop, she stuck her head into the animal trough at the door to eat.

While eating, he pushed the original owner aside from side to side, his posture was very unattractive and he was embarrassed!

At this moment, a loud laugh came from the door: "Hey, look! Who is this?"

In this man's words, there was a taste of too much honey, it was sweet and cloying, and his voice was high-pitched. Although it was pretentious, the words also revealed a kindness from the inside to the outside. This kind of kindness can't be understood by outsiders. But Gu Zhao is familiar with it.

Gu Zhao patted Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu knelt down slowly, Gu Zhao supported Ade's hand as he dismounted the camel, and greeted with a smile: "But the brother of the Geng family is in front of you..."

Before the words were finished, a Bai Xuanxuan's meatball rolled out of the store. While rolling, the meatball continued to laugh and greet: "Ouch, Ouch! Let me just say, the magpies are all screaming when I wake up today, I'm sure There is something good! Look, I said it a few days ago, I just! I miss my little brother, dear brother, good brother, I will see you today!"

When you come out, this person is really round and smooth. Don't look at people in the world who like thin people. It's because they don't know the benefits of fat people. The biggest advantage of fat people is that no matter how old you are, the wrinkles on your face will be stretched by the fat. It seems that fat people are always more tender than thin people.

This white fat man should be more than 60 this year, but his mellow vigor just dragged his age down by a full ten years. In addition, he likes green clothes full of flowers, which further drags his age down. Four or five years younger.

His eyes are round, his nose is round, and his chin has a few lovely rounded arcs, and it falls down, drowning his neck.There are mountains of meat piled up and down, not to mention, this person turned out to be a bit round and innocent and cute.

In the blink of an eye, the ball rolled in front of Gu Zhao. The man stretched out his arms and wanted to embrace Gu Zhao warmly. However, he had too much flesh and wanted to hug him, but his hands could only reach his shoulders, and he patted his back vigorously. , I changed it to a shoulder pat.

Gu Zhao squinted one eye, raised his chin slightly, and smiled cheerfully. Seeing this person, he also felt subtly happy. You must know that many years ago, he gave a few families a fortune!The person in front of him was Geng Cheng. Because his family was sparsely populated, he was promoted by Gu Zhao and his elder brother. Since then, his family has skyrocketed!

Today, the six families of Guardian Star, no matter how they say it, whether they disagree with each other or fight in small troubles, they are still quite close and united internally. You must know that these people think mysteriously that their ancestors They were all sent from heaven, they were close relatives in previous life, after this life, after completing the mission and returning to heaven, they are still friends, colleagues and relatives.

Being so close to each other, there are often marriages, even entanglements and conflicts. As long as the ancestors' friendship is mentioned, all anger will disappear immediately.

Geng Cheng laughed and quacked, Gu Zhao saw him kindly, so he asked him: "Why is brother here free? Why didn't you go to the east gate? It's very lively there!"

There was still a smile on Geng Cheng's round face, and he waved his fat hand indifferently: "Your brother's words are insulting me, and I count as the main course on the table at that place?"

Gu Zhao was suddenly embarrassed, he didn't understand this?That's what it says?

Seeing that the little brother of the Gu family's ears were reddish, and Geng Cheng had a good temper, he didn't make things difficult for him. He stretched out his fat hand lovingly and grabbed him: "Come on, sit in the room, Lao Wang has some good stuff here..."

Gu Zhao had no choice but to follow him into the house and went to the back.

Behind this is a large yard, and a half-circle cattle shed has been built against the wall. The shed is full of camels of various colors.

Geng Cheng took Gu Zhao to a solitary livestock room inside, where a white camel was tethered, whose coat color was slightly worse than Gu Zhao's Xiaoyu.

"Look, this is my family's snow jade!" Geng Cheng touched the camel's head cherishingly, and then said to Gu Zhao with a smile: "It has it, and it is matched with Nong Si Lu Du'an's family, six months old." Yes, Lao Wang said, I promise that when it comes out, it will be snow white, of course, no one can compare with our Xiaoyu, right? Brother’s Xiaoyu, that’s this!" He gave a thumbs up and shook it.

Gu Zhao smiled embarrassingly, not knowing how to answer the conversation at all.

A few servants came out of that room, and quickly set up tables and chairs in the courtyard, and set up refreshments to eat and drink.

The old Yalang in the store didn't dare to come over, so he stood on the porch and waited, with a fawning smile on his face.

Geng Cheng pulled Gu Zhao to sit in the yard, eating and drinking with the taste of the whole yard of animals, and he didn't feel disgusted at all.

Speaking of which, old man Geng Cheng can be regarded as an old dude.

As the only remaining six-star family, he is incomparable to the others. His family is weak, and he lives entirely on the rewards from above, and has no political capital to gain a foothold. Therefore, in the market, everyone still treats him more than friendly , lack of respect.

He was originally just a general judge of the sixth grade in the country, and later became the Duke of the state. In the first few years, his words and deeds naturally lost his sense of propriety. He was overwhelmed with complacency, first took in more than a dozen housekeepers, and then held a large number of banquets to collect money.

Originally Master Dingying Ding took good care of him, seeing that he was ignorant and his descendants were young, so he also separated from him, and only ordered the younger generation in the family to communicate.After a long time, everyone saw through him. Most of the people around Wei Guogong were snobs. They felt that it was no good for his family to have no power in the court, so they left naturally, and no one surrounded him for him.

In this way, the old man was in a sad mood, and he inevitably felt a little unhappy.

Last year, Geng Guogong, who was in a depressed mood, met an expert, who was a purveyor of Jinbei King Zhao Yuanxiang's sect.

The name of this Qing guest is Feng Shang, and he is a very wonderful person.

One day after Feng Shang ran into the unsatisfactory Geng Guogong, he said to him from the bottom of his heart: "Don't think so much, old Duke, you should eat and drink, as long as you serve him respectfully on weekdays, you will keep the three generations safe! "

Geng Cheng is not very smart, but he is a little smart. He went home and chewed on these words over and over again, and finally realized it!

This up and down depends on who they are, but I have no one to curry favor with, and his family is also a hereditary replacement of four thousand households. Just because he is worthless does not mean that the future generations are worthless. Therefore, the face of his family is not with him, but with future generations.

In this way, Geng Cheng ordered someone to carry a big gift, and personally stepped on the threshold of the Jibei Wang family, which everyone avoided. He kowtowed and bowed to the Jibei Wang Shengsheng and blackmailed Mr. Feng Shang to go home and make an offering.

After that, I don't know if it was Feng Shang who pointed it out. Anyway, this Wei Guogong is getting fatter and fatter, and he is becoming more and more like a dude.

Geng Cheng and Gu Zhao talked about the Camel Sutra for a while, seeing that Gu Zhao treated him well, he felt a little bit in the mood to share, just seeing his mysterious face and said to Gu Zhao: "Good brother, dear brother, brother has a A good person introduces you to..."
