Chapter 296 Peach Blossom Temple vs. Zen, internal and external body and heart! On
It was beyond Song Yi's expectation that Yangzhou Zhizhou would take the initiative to find himself, and what the Lord Zhizhou knew made Song Yi feel uncomfortable. The reason why he doesn't want to be an official is to be free, and the feeling of being free is really annoying...
As for the matter of the soft cicada girl, in fact, it is mostly a joke. Maybe Lord Zhizhou really has the intention of temptation. In fact, it seems that the expression of the soft cicada seems to be completely unintentional.
It can be seen that Song Yi is not the kind of beautiful man who is loved by everyone.
Back home, Qingyan was waiting for a small hill of vegetables planted in the backyard, and two clever maids were squatting and carefully fertilizing.
The sunshine was just right. When Song Yi walked behind Qingyan, he blocked half of her sunshine. Qingyan sensed the shadow, and the corners of his mouth turned around with a happy arc and said with a smile, "Are you back? Isn't it difficult for Lord Zhizhou to find you?"
Song Yi took the silk scarf in Qingyan's hand and wiped the white jade hand stained with some soil for her, and then said calmly, "This time you guessed wrong. Lord Zhizhou really gave me a problem..."
Qingyan originally enjoyed Song Yi's gentle care. Hearing what he said, she suddenly frowned and asked, "Is there really something difficult?"
Song Yi nodded, took Qingyan and sat down on the cushioned chair in the pavilion, and then said, "I thought I had done enough secretively about collecting grain, but now I know that my vision is actually a little shorter!"
"Will this matter make Lord Zhizhou unhappy?" Qingyan said doubtfully.
"It was not a big deal, but I heard that the rice grain circulating on the market is not enough to support the people in Yangzhou to the autumn harvest! So now this matter is very serious!" Song Yi said.
"How could this happen? Although the amount of 150,000 taels of silver is very large, how can Yangzhou be short of food? Qingyan asked in surprise, but after saying that, her heart suddenly thumped, as if she had vaguely guessed something.
Sure enough, Song Yi's answer made her a little worried.
"At first, I thought that the merchants of the rice and grain business would take advantage of the defeat of the war to hoard grain and raise prices, but I ignored that some people's purpose will not stop there! According to Lord Zhizhou, it is... Some people are going to create a chaotic grain price in the market to make huge profits!" Song Yi said helplessly.
"Since Lord Zhizhou knows that it's not your business, why do we have a problem? Does Lord Zhizhou think that we are also one of the profiteering members?
"Alas... Speaking of which, I was still fooled by the emperor. He said that he gave me an idle job. In fact, I regret it only when I think about it now. Where should I hide for him? Lord Zhizhou means nothing more than wanting me to help him solve this hidden problem together..." Song Yi said with tears and laughter.
"It's difficult for you, so what should we do now? Are you really going to help Lord Zhizhou? Qingyan asked anxiously.
Song Yi pondered slightly, and after a moment, he said, "It's impossible without help!" I figured it out. No matter where I am, since I am stared by the emperor, it is always too difficult to escape... Since life is everywhere, I still have to find a way to take the initiative to fight for some initiative for myself..."
Qingyan's mood suddenly became a little lost and said, "It's all my fault that it's useless... I thought I could actually be a good woman, but now I find that I'm so useless. Every time something happens, I can't help you..."
"Stupid woman... What do you want to do with this? It's a man's business. Why do you have to ask yourself to think about this? Although I don't agree with the saying that a woman's talentlessness is virtue, I also hope that I can use my ability to make you live a good life... Some problems are what men should face, and you have done so much for me, and I should not let you suffer!" Song Yi said seriously.
Qingyan was slightly moved and said slightly lost, "But looking at you are always so busy, I don't feel good..."
"Whose man enjoys happiness at home?" Song Yi asked with a smile.
Qingyan thought for a moment. Although she thought that some men were living a happy life, she knew those men, so she was immediately relieved, because she knew that Song Yi would not be that kind of man and would not want to be that kind of man!
Men can't be famous, but they can't be ambitious!
Qingyan was originally an extremely intelligent woman. After thinking about this, she suddenly thought of going to the business. She asked Song Yi, "Since you are going to help, what do you have on the side of Zhizhou?"
Song Yi shook his head and said, "It's because of his method that I don't think it's workable that I feel embarrassed!" Lord Zhizhou wanted to misappropriate the money from the treasury and entrusted me to help him buy grain for his needs, but how could I agree with this method? Don't mention that this itself is a violation of the law. Even if it is feasible, once someone hears the news of my buying grain, I'm afraid it will cause more chaos!"
"What about that?"
"I'm also worried. This matter could have been better for Yutou Zhang to help, but unfortunately, Lord Zhizhou knows my relationship with Yutou Zhang. I just told him to keep a distance from the people in the salt gang and go to him again, which is very inappropriate!" Song Yi sighed.
"We have no acquaintances except Sister Chang in Yangzhou... This matter is so big that you can't ask for help. Isn't it difficult for you to die alone? Qingyan said worriedly.
"There will always be a way..." Song Yi muttered, looking at the figures of the two maids squatting and serving vegetables not far away, slightly distracted...
"Otherwise... Shall we go to Master Wang for help? You have a good relationship with him, and you have helped him with the affairs of the shipyard. If you go to him for help at this time, he should not refuse us, will he? Qingyan's eyes lit up and said.
"I thought about it, but... Originally, I planned to help him not to owe him this time, but I went to him again. Didn't I owe him another favor?" Song Yi frowned and said.
"You have always been clever, officials. How can you forget that buying food is a mutually beneficial thing? You deal with it and state the benefits. Master Wang has no reason to presphate!" Qingyan said seriously.
Song Yi responded uncertainly, "That... Let me think about it again..." Then he fell into a thorn again. In fact, what Song Yi was worried about was that he was inspiring by Wang Shuai before he left Beijing, and then naturally felt that he would go to Wang Kuanglu to discuss this matter at this time, and it was inevitable that he would have some entanglement with Wang Su! But of course, this matter can only be his own concerns, how can he say it.
Turning around this matter, Song Yi suddenly smiled and said, "The sunshine is just right today. Why don't we go to the Peach Blossom Temple to see if the peach blossoms are in full bloom?"
"Good... Last time, the Zen master in the temple looked particularly kind and close, and he got the signature. It's time to fulfill his wish again!" Qingyan's eyebrows suddenly smiled brightly.
Most women believe in gods and Buddhas, not to mention that most people in this era are full of ghosts and gods. Qingyan asked for a good sign last time. Now her life is becoming more and more cheerful. Although the Ruyi Langjun she chose is a little busy, she is not the kind of person who likes the new and hates the old or is addicted to gambling and drinking. Naturally, she naturally feels that Some of the fortunes of gods and Buddhas are protecting some...
On the one hand, Qingyan's wish is that she hasn't spent much time alone with Song Yi since she got married. At this time, she is naturally a little happy.
Seeing that Qingyan was happy, Song Yi asked Xiaohu to arrange a carriage, and then drove to the Peach Blossom Temple together. Even to the Peach Blossom Temple, in fact, Song Yi did not forget to be vigilant to bring flying knives and long knives just in case! Since Zhao Ze's maliciousness was revealed, Song Yi seems to pay much attention to safety, and he will at least take some self-defense items when he goes out.
Then to the Peach Blossom Temple, Qingyan went to the hall to ask for Buddha, while Song Yi, who had always been in awe but did not believe in it, went directly to the peach forest in the backyard.
After experiencing a winter snow in Taolin, at this moment, the greenness is revealed, and the faint buds dotted the branches. Although it has not yet bloomed, it is estimated that it is not too far from the day of blooming. Maybe it is only waiting for a warm wind to blow away.
At that time, my eyes will be full of pink and beauty. I really don't know how beautiful this Peach Blossom Temple should be...
It's just that it was originally a pure Buddhist temple, but it planted the flowers of the temple, with a strong smell of red dust. I really don't know what those monks thought in their hearts at the first?
"From winter to spring, the situation in the world has been different. Do you know that what the poor monk said last year is not a lie?"
A slightly old voice sounded from behind Song Yi, and it was the abbot who came out of the Zen room next to the peach forest.
The monk is still the same monk, but he is no longer so annoying and no longer makes Song Yi feel crazy.
Song Yi turned around and smiled at the old monk Heshi and said, "In a few days, the master will be in this pink. This scene is actually very interesting!"
"Hahaha... It's always interesting to look inside from the outside... As the saying goes, the bystander is clear!" The abbot said with a smile.
"Master... You can see more accurately because you are a bystander, because you can see more clearly and think more thoroughly outside the matter! But... Have you ever thought that when you are involved in one thing, in fact, you can't see it clearly, or... You can't see the farther fruit, and the fruit you think you see is actually just because? Song Yi said with a smile.
The abbot smiled, held the Buddha beads in his hand and said after a slight meditation, "It's not a Buddha, who can see through the cause and effect? A mortal is always a mortal... Although the poor monk is outside the square, in fact, his heart is in the three thousand worlds. He can neither be free nor proved the result. Why not get cause and effect in cause and effect? Who can really see through it?"
Song Yi fell into meditation.
