Chapter 66 The Mystery of the ultimatum

Wang heard Yuexia say that there was an ultimatum in the item. He took it from Yue's hand and saw that it was a piece of paper like a voucher. When I looked at the things in the package yesterday, I didn't look carefully. I thought it was a silver ticket or something. Today, I took a closer look and it was really different.

This is a chapter of five-color golden flower silk paper. The ultimatum is written on the legal name of the monk and nun, the common name, identity (specify the child or walker and their title), place of origin, age, residence or ask the abbot of the temple (the name of the temple), the recited classics, the name of the teacher, etc., and there is the approval of the ancestral temple, the date of signature and the official signature, etc.

Yuexia looked at the things in the package and asked the king, "Where did these things come from?"

Wang looked at it. The monk's name on the ultimatum was Jinghui, commonly known as Tong Zhong, and then said, "This is the thing in the well of the virginity. Don't be angry. I heard yesterday that I was going to Yushi. I was worried that I would lose face, so I asked Xiaolu to get the jade from my father-in-law.

"Bah, my father-in-law shouted smoothly, and I don't know how to be ashamed." Yuexia said with a gentle smile. Wang Pang smiled and then said:

"When Xiao Lu picked up something, he brought this package. Do you think the thief had hidden it in the well? The thief is also strange. It's okay to steal things. What's the use of stealing the certificate of becoming a monk?"

Xiao Lu said, "I didn't notice this thing yesterday. It's a good thing."

Wang looked at the ultimatum carefully. Seeing Xiao Lu's question, he also said, "My wife should know about this, but let's talk about it."

Yuexia was happy to hear the word "lad" in her heart, but she still pouted her little mouth and ignored the king and pretended to be angry, but she immediately smiled again and said the ultimatum.

"Of course, the benefits of the ultimatum needless to be said. After receiving the ultimatum, you can avoid remote service without money. There is no need to mention the common people. The monk and Taoist priest eat Shifang, and the temple has farmland. If you become a monk and Taoist priest, you don't have to perform military service and labor. They do not come from Dingqian rice and other harsh miscellaneous taxes. They avoid taxes, eat a bowl of ready-made meals, and become legal vagrants who eat without work.

Xiao Lu said, "I also know that the landlord also wants an ultimatum. In order to protect the property of the whole family, we have to do everything we can to become an official household and ask our children to become officials in school. If not, we can also have money to buy an official complaint and become a nominal official household. At that time, the official complaint could also be bought with money, but it was more expensive than an ultimatum. If not, it's better to buy an ultimatum. Because the temple property can be rented-free.

The girl under the moon was unconvinced: "I also know that with an ultimatum, I can protect the property and avoid the strong annexation family. In addition, there are many benefits, such as monks and Taoist priests receiving preferential treatment in law: " female crown of monks, nuns and Taoist priests, and those below the seventh grade of civil and military officials are guilty of redemption. &Amp;quot;

The two of you say a word, and I say a lot of the benefits of the ultimatum. Seeing this, Wang said, "I said how my wife wants to be a monk. It turns out that there are so many benefits."

Yuexia put down the gold and silver jewelry he just saw in his hand: "There are many benefits, but it's not easy to be a monk now. But it's one in a hundred."

Lu Shenyan also said: "It's not easy to come out. The prince can only joke. If he has been looking for a girl for so long, and the girl has gone into a monk, the prince will not know how to be sad.

Wang didn't deny it. He smiled and said, "Who can't tell? It's enough to buy an ultimatum with these things." She said, pointing to the gold and silver in the package.

"Can this kind of thing be bought and sold?" Wang's side asked the moon in surprise

Yuexia said, "I also heard from others, and I heard that it is very expensive. Now it's better, and it has to be thirty or forty."

The price of an ultimatum was so high, which was a little unexpected by the king. He looked at the gold and silver in the package and this ultimatum and remembered the Water Margin. I read the Water Margin in my previous life, and I remember saying:

The wine and meat monks Lu Zhishen and Wu Song swaggered through the market, not worrying about Kuaishou's public coming to make trouble, that's because they all have an ultimatum, as Sun Erniang said: "Let's take this ultimatum as an amulet... Who dares to cross the way forward?" The difference is that Wu Song is an impostor, but Lu Zhishen was officially reported by Wutaishan Wenshu Academy.

I remembered another point in the book: Zhao Yuanwai "has bought a five-flower ultimatum" and said that "the ancestral ultimatum is already available", indicating that the way is right. After Luda shaved his hair, the first one presented an ultimatum to ask the elder to give him a Dharma name. The elder took an empty ultimatum and said, "A little more spiritual light, worth a lot of money, the Buddha's Dharma is vast, and the name is profound." Give the ultimatum to the secretary monk to fill in and give it to Lu Zhishen.

When Wang thought of this, he asked the two of them, is this ultimatum on sale by the government?

Xiao Lu shook his head: "The government has never sold it, but mostly privately."

Wang Bian asked the two of them again and he didn't know much. When he returned to the room, Wang Bian thought that it was good to be a monk, but now there are dozens of ultimatums. Why did the elder hold a blank ultimatum and say that it was worth a lot of money? What is the reason for the huge gap?

However, he was curious. On the second day, Wang still took Xiao Lu to Kaifeng Mansion. Wang was really too busy to take care of some idle things. He picked up things and charged him. As for the children, Tianqing Temple was not the king's business.

Since the king resigned and went west, Lord Bao Zheng rarely saw the king, and he also missed him in his heart. Yesterday, Lord Bao was worried about the king. Seeing that the envoy of Liao was very arrogant at the beginning, but seeing the little guy next to the king shot three arrows in succession, the face of the envoy of Liao became more and more ugly, and Lord Bao Zheng became more and more happy.

Lord Bao's official position is quite high. Naturally, he is also closer to those foreign envoys. When those messengers see the king on the stage, they talk a little. Those messengers are all birds. Some of the ambassadors know the Central Plains language, and some of them have translators. They are all asking who this teenager is.

Bao Zheng looked at the king nervously while listening to those dialogues. Is there anyone who doesn't know Bao Zheng's fame? Naturally, it will be said that this little student is the adopted son of Lord Bao. Seeing that the king won the messenger, he was full of color. Lord Bao's neck was stalked, and his chest was very proud of the king in his heart.

In the early morning, he received a decree that the emperor would be summoned alone tomorrow. Bao Zheng was also thinking about how to deal with the matter of the Kowloon Cup. Seeing the king coming from the outside, he was followed by Lu Shenyan and a woman. Xiao Lu also had a package in his hand.

He was very happy to see Lord Wang Pangbao. He put down the official document in his hand and said, "It's just right for me to come."

Wang came forward to give a salute. These days, he was busy with official business and socializing and the Spring Festival. I haven't talked to Lord Bao for a long time as before. Bao Zheng said half-blamely, "You child, aren't you crazy? I don't see you very much here and your father.

Wang Bian quickly smiled and said, "How dare you, child? I'm not busy to find your second daughter-in-law." With that, I met Lord Bao at the bottom of the month.

When Wang Bian had just found Yuexia, there was a wound on Yuexia's face. It was inconvenient for Wang Bian to force her to come to see her. Recently, the scar on her face had healed. Wang Bian thought it was time, so he brought Yuexia with him. Bao Zheng had heard that he had found Yuexia. Today, he saw the king bring Yuexia and sighed when he saw the daughter of the deceased.

After asking a few words about the marriage plan of the two, Lord Bao was also a knowledgeable and sensible person under the moon, and he was relieved.

The king said to Bao Zheng, "Godfather, I dropped jade in front of the dry well of Privet. I asked Lu Shenyan to pick it up the day before yesterday and found something. Please have a look."

He said that Xiao Lu was included. When Lord Bao saw that there was an ultimatum, he asked the master to make a confession for Xiao Lu.

The king took the moon to meet his wife. The wife stayed in the moon room to talk, and the king went back alone to see Lord Bao. The confession has been recorded, and Lord Bao said to the king, "You are here just in time today. You must stay for half a day."

Wang Bian originally wanted to take Yuexia to Wang Anshi's house again. Hearing Bao Zheng say so, he also wanted to ask about this ultimatum. So he ordered Xiao Lu to take the girl there first. After arranging the two people, the father and son next to King Bao Zheng came to the wing of the hall. The room was also decorated with some bookshelves and other things. There was a tea set on a half-fairy table, and the two sat opposite each other. The stove in the room is burning the "scented cakes" sent by the king.

In the chat, Bao Zheng mentioned: "This ultimatum may lead to a case." The king asked Bao Zheng for advice.

The family cooked tea for the two of them and left. The king poured tea for Lord Bao and asked, "I heard that there is a reselling of ultimatum in the market. Can my godfather say this is this?"

Bao Zheng said, "This is one of them. The monk's ultimatum needs to be slack off. How can it be easily lost and put together with gold and silver, which may involve transactions."

Wang asked, "How can there be a market transaction in this ultimatum? Is it difficult to be a monk?"

Bao Zheng said: "In the later period of Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, Wang Qinruo and Ding were the prime ministers and believed in Taoism and Buddhism. In the first year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1008), he was said to receive the book of heaven, sealed Mount Tai and sacrifice to Fenyang. The imperial edict ordered Ding to build the Yuqing Zhaoying Palace, which was extremely extravagant and civil engineering. It was completed in seven years, and there were nearly 3,000 houses. "Small but not mid-range, although the golden blue has been It will be destroyed and made, and some people dare not charge for it.

In August of the third year of Jingde, Sun Shi, the servant of the royal palace, proposed to Zhenzong to "reduce the number of temples and monks", limiting the cultivation of temples and the rapid increase of the number of monks. Zhenzong retorted: "As for the two sects of Taoism, it helps the world religion. People or prejudices are often destroyed. If monks and Taoist priests are disspected, they can abolish their religion?"

This period of history is not clear, but he has also heard that the policies and regulations of Zhenzong on the construction of monasteries in various places are also more relaxed than in the past.

He also heard Bao Zheng say: "Zhengzong has contributed a lot to Buddhism for several years, but because he became a monk, he can be exempted from taxes. Many people serve in the name of becoming monks. Moreover, they have made great contributions to civil engineering, and the treasury is empty. Zhi Renzong still teaches, but the assessment of monks has been strengthened, and there are clear provisions on the qualifications of monks. And there will be no more monks.

Wang Zongyi seemed to understand that this was caused by the limit and said, "It's a good thing to be strict."

Bao Zheng said, "I heard that Renzong also has the intention to streamline the temple monks, so there are some illegal people in the market to resell the ultimatum, or some people commit crimes to seek the ultimatum to escape."

Wang thought that there should be a crime escape, otherwise there would be no such as Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, but after listening to Bao Zheng's words, he also understood why the ultimatum would be so high.

Wang has experienced this matter. In a few years before 2012, when the number of taxi operation qualifications in a certain city was limited, an operation certificate was six times. From more than 100,000 yuan to about 600,000 yuan. But how could this ultimatum reach that price, and it was also an official thing. Wang Bang began to think about whether he could start from an official point of view.

I was thinking about it and suddenly listened to Bao Zheng's words and said, "Today's ultimatum, I think of something is a little involved. Emperor Zhenzong gave special courtesy to the Japanese slave monk, and gave him the Dharma name Master Yuantong, and gave him a purple square robe to give him a special honor.

Hearing Bao Zheng mention the Japanese slaves, Wang side thought that the Japanese slaves did not come to worship this court meeting, so he asked, "Father, why didn't the Japanese slaves come to worship this year?"

Bao Zheng said, "This is exactly what I want to tell you. This matter is related to my face. You can listen to a good solution."
