Chapter 341 Monks and Taoists
When Wei Jiu returned to his house, Wu Siguan was holding Qiao Hongli's hand and chatting. Wei Jiu nodded and smiled.
"Here you come."
Wu Siguan nodded and never spoke.
The chamber of commerce will last for a few days. The first day is just a simple mutual understanding, and then it is time to start talking about business. The wealthy businessman enters Chang'an City and is also when Chang'an merchants start to make money. Wei Jiu leaked his face on the boat, and even if he completed the task perfectly, the rest of the matter had nothing to do with him.
Wei Jiu completely removed his identity as a businessman, which was also what Cai Qinghu and Qu Qingxuan calculated. Wei Jiu didn't care about any businessman or a businessman, but the two women's identity as a businessman has taken root in their hearts.
All envoys from various countries left Chang'an. Li Er chose to indulge Li Chengqian and Li Zhi, and did not expel them from Chang'an. It seemed that he wanted to make a decision in this year.
Chen Yu and Bian Ji went to Jiannan Road, and Chen Yu went to become her queen after dark, and Bian Ji went to preach the checks and balances.
Li Chongyi was still busy in the hospital, Li Tai was in the scientific research institute, Qin Huaiyu went to the Turkic garrison, and Liu Wanzhi went home to think about her mistakes.
Fang Yiai returned to Fangzhou, and Song Ziguan and others went to Liangzhou to play.
There are only two idle people left in Chang'an.
Wei Jiu and Li Ke.
Li Er did not say that he would not summon the two of them, but also ordered the escorts from the palace gate to intercept Wei Jiu.
Life has become boring again.
Wei Jiu sat on the edge of the field and watched the people farming, with ridges straight. Wei Jiu did not give up his thumbs up and measured with one eye, and a sound came from behind him.
"You can't see the twists and turns of your body with such measurements. You can only sit on a hot air balloon and look at it."
Xuanzang appeared behind Wei Jiu unexpectedly. Wei Jiu did not turn around and continued to look at the ridge of the field and whispered.
"You know, I'm watching praise these people. They are all people around our mansion. They have been doing some small business with our Wei family over the years. The family is not short of money anymore. Why do you have to come here to get into trouble? Look at the old man wearing white scarf. Both of their daughters are maids in my mansion. The monthly money is three or five jin per month, not as a bonus. What is he going to do?"
Xuanzang smiled faintly.
"If a person has no goal, he will lose the meaning of existence. At this age, he cannot go on and wander around like a young man. All he can do is to do is to become a person with a very low sense of existence."
"Oh, do you still know the sense of existence? Monk, you secretly asked for a lesson without telling Yuan Tiangang?"
"hehe!"
A very embarrassing laughter changed the topic, and Wei Jiu was too lazy to speak. The family at the village door brought lunch at noon. Wei Jiu lost interest in watching and took Xuanzang to the Royal Academy.
This place where Wei Jiu rarely set foot, he didn't want to have any relationship with the academy. He came here today just to find a place to eat quietly.
Braised pork, fried dried tofu, bamboo shoots and pickles, a bowl of egg flower soup with a large portion of rice.
Wei Jiu was not afraid of vocalization, but Xuanzang was very confused. Wei Jiu teased him while holding a plate.
"You said it's so difficult for you monks to eat? It's okay if you don't eat meat, but you don't eat this onion, ginger and garlic. What do you eat? You can drink some northwest wind in winter. What should you do when it's spring and summer? Cook him a piece of noodles with clear soup and remember to ask for money!"
The first few words teased Xuanzang, and the latter one explained to the chef of the college.
There are very few students in the college now, only some students who stay at school after graduation and are preparing to be lecturers or continue to study. These students can already receive subsidies every month, about six or seven hundred scholars, which is enough for food and clothing.
Wei Jiu ate the rice in big mouthfuls and ate it voraciously.
Xuanzang chewed slowly and could not bite the noodles or make a sound of eating noodles.
Wei Jiu picked up a piece of meat and still put it in his mouth, and smiled.
"Xuanzang, is it painful to be a monk?"
Xuanzang shook his head and said softly.
"It's not hard. I've been in the temple when I remember it. I've been used to it for many years. Today I came to find Marquis of Wei to ask about something."
Wei Jiu smiled again.
"The development of the temple? I can't help it again?"
"Now there are more and more monks, but the Buddhist temple has begun to follow your instructions from Marquis Wei. If you have a family, your wife is sick, and your children are young, you will try your best to persuade him and allow him to practice on his behalf. There is no need to go to the temple to be a monk. As long as you have Buddha in your heart, you can also eat meat and drink wine, participate in military martial arts, Marquis Wei, and the monk asked with a smile, "Are you doing something wrong in this Buddhist temple."
"Yes, I'm very satisfied."
"Why did Bian Ji go to Jiannandao to preach, not other monks? You know Bian Ji can only be considered half a Buddhist. He has broken the precepts. He will spread it to Jiannandao. If something happens in the future, will this responsibility be borne by the Buddhists or you."
Wei Jiu was slightly stunned, then continued to smile.
"Well~~ It's really a problem for you to say that. Bian Ji must go to Jiannan Road to accompany Chenyu. Do you have the right candidate?"
Xuanzang looked at Wei Jiu and seemed to have some small plans, but he didn't say anything. He just said that he didn't eat enough and picked up the bowl to serve noodles. Wei Jiu tilted his head and wondered, thinking that this monk was throwing a tantrum? When he was about to continue cooking, there was someone behind him.
I understand why Xuanzang left, and there is no need to look back.
The only person who made Xuanzang hate in the Tang Dynasty.
Yuan Tiangang came with a whisk in his hand and a peach wood sword on his back, and sat down beside Wei Jiu with a sad look on his face.
He did not have a good temper towards Xuanzang. Wei Jiu picked up the soup bowl and was about to splash it. Yuan Tiangang hurriedly said.
"Marty of Wei, don't waste food, you will be punished by God!"
Wei Jiu held the bowl and looked at Yuan Tiangang sideways, frowned.
"If I don't splash you, won't you curse me? Don't tell me what's going on in Jiangnan Road? It would be nice if I didn't cause trouble for your Dao Sect when these things happened in Jiannan Road. Now, if you are afraid of a defense machine?"
The soup was not poured out. Xuanzang, who came back, took it and placed it on the table. Then he continued to lower his head to eat noodles. However, this time there was a little more vegetarian dish. Yuan Tiangang looked at Wei Jiu with a sad face and said.
"My eldest marquis, Xiaodao is not worried about Master Bianji going to Jiannandao. People in the world believe in Buddhism or Taoism are their freedom. They want to tell you that the affairs of Jiannandao really have nothing to do with the Taoist sect. The Taoist sect went to Jiannandao to build a hospital for my uncle and benefit the people! This time, the Taoist sect took out all the assets of the family to build ten hospitals in Jiannandao, but now it's better, the entire Taoist sect of Jiannandao was ordered by His Majesty. Look, aren't we shooting ourselves in the foot and being scolded for being sick?"
"Puff, hahahaha."
Wei Jiu was amused, but Yuan Tiangang still did not escape this disaster. The egg flower soup squirted, Yuan Tiangang looked indifferent and wiped his face seriously.
"Marty Wei, I can guarantee that the Taoist sect was definitely not involved in this matter. Cheng Xuanying's miserable death was a wake-up call for the Taoist sect."
Wei Jiu threw a handkerchief to Yuan Tiangang and frowned.
"Sung Hyun-ying is dead? It's miserable?"
Yuan Tiangang was slightly stunned, and then suddenly thought that Wei Jiu might not know about this matter. He stopped talking with his eyes dodging, and Xuanzang, who was eating noodles, whispered.
"Well~~ Your apprentice Wu Mei locked the death row prisoners of Cheng Xuanyingke Dali Temple together... It's very... nauseating!"
Xuanzang, who had excellent cultivation, started to feel nauseous before he finished speaking. He got up and ran out of the net. Wei Jiu said angrily when he saw this.
"What did Wu Mei do?"
Yuan Tiangang lowered his head and whispered.
Chapter completed!
