Chapter 11: There is a sword to buy (Part 2)
After two days of rest, I set off on my own and traveled for more than half a month. I gradually entered the south. From a distance, I could see the fertile fields, the gardens were everywhere, and the flowing waters were everywhere.
At this time, there was no need to stay in a station in the dense Han area. I bought horses myself, each of which was fifty taels and seven horses with three hundred and fifty taels of silver. This time, I really spent 1,500 taels of silver on the way.
A carriage and five riders followed, this style was naturally given by everyone. On this day, when you passed by a place, you suddenly saw a garden. From the outside, you estimated that it was ten acres.
In December, the flowers and leaves inside have withered and the ingenuity of the arrangement of flowers and trees can also be seen. There are two servants everywhere in the pavilions and towers, and at the entrance of the garden, so they naturally do not stop them from seeing Fang Xin.
In addition to the garden, tourists can enjoy it. There is a small pavilion inside with the words "Wingxian Pavilion".
At this time, he was already in Tianze County, and was subordinate to Aries Mansion, but he was only fifty miles away from Fang Xin's hometown of Jiang Mansion. After passing through, he arrived at his hometown. Seeing that it was already noon, it was already dark and it was snowing, he ordered people to park their car and walk up to the pavilion.
I saw that the pavilion was very big, with a table and eight chairs. At this time, a 14 or 15-year-old boy came over and said with a bow: "Is this young man here to play or use tea?"
Fang Xin said in surprise: "Is tea available here?"
"My owner has set up an outer courtyard and is willing to entertain visitors, or the passengers can rest. If they are tired and thirsty, they can serve tea. If the guests use it, the villain will immediately take it." As he said, the young man brewed a bowl of tea on the pavilion stove, held it in front of Fang Xin, and called out: "Young Master, please have tea."
Fang Xin looked and found that there was a tea forest not far from the garden. Although this kind of tea is not considered herbal tea or good tea, it is already amazing to have such a heart. He smiled and took it, and then put the bowl on the table.
The young man said again: "Please rest, this young master can bake the stove with desserts and dry food. However, if the master of the family comes out to appreciate the snow, he will ask the young master to let him go."
"Yeah, I understand." Fang Xin saw that although he was a servant, he was a little bit literary. He knew that the master of the family was extraordinary and agreed. So the six of them entered the pavilion together and Wu Xing took out the basket.
Fresh meat buns, braised chicken, and some meat slices were bought in the morning and placed on the stove and baked. First, they were given to Fang Xin. Fang Xin ate a braised chicken leg, a few pieces of meat slices, and then two snacks, which was enough. Naturally, the lower part was eaten by Aibel, and the remaining five strong men were divided at once.
Speaking of this, Fang Xin remembered classical novels on earth, especially Water Margin, where they always "shop, cut a few kilograms of cooked beef and boil a pot of hot wine."
In fact, as long as the industrial revolution is not entered, slaughtering oxen on the land of China is a serious crime.
According to the Dachu Law and Order: The law of slaughtering plowing oxen - oxen farms for people, so it is used as a farming merit. For example, how to make oxen plow and work in the countryside, people take food as the basis and farmers take ox as the power, so it is stated that their purpose should not be slaughtered without authorization. Anyone who slaughtered plowing oxen without approval from the government will be punished. Those who commit the first offender will receive ten sticks and are imprisoned for one month. Those who commit the second offender will receive thirty sticks and demoted to an official slave for one year. Those who commit the third offender will be exiled for thousands of miles to become soldiers.
也就是说,只有官府查看了,认为这牛已经老了,不堪耕作,才允许宰杀,私下宰杀,就是大罪,地球上,中国编写的佛教功德书,里面就有杀一牛,堕落地狱受苦的说法,其实追究起来,还是有一些道理——在耕牛关系到农业的时候,杀牛就等于减产,就等于多上几分饥寒,这当然是罪过,而有了机械,这牛也不过是普通食物了,和猪是一样,这就叫此一时彼一时.
As for the extreme things written by lay monks and monks in later generations, those who fish and pigs would fall into hell and be reborn in the evil path, this is all a big deal. In this way, animals are life, plants are life, and there are countless bacteria in the water, so humans will not eat or drink. As for fishermen and farmers, they are all sinners who harvest and kill countless lives every year. They are all sinful, and they will all go to hell.
It is natural for humans to eat animals and plants. Sakyamuni eats meat and drinks milk. This is the natural truth. As long as one day, humans cannot evolve to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon to make a living, this is nothing but fruitlessness.
As for the saying that when you look at a woman, you will go to hell. In the Internet era, there are countless half-naked women. According to the laws and regulations, if you look at her for a few glances, you will go to hell. In this case, all the people in the world will go to hell. It is better to persuade the world, but if you go to the opposite side of nature and society, those who say these things will not only have no merit, but will have it.
These thoughts passed in a blink of an eye, and Fang Xin didn't think much. At this moment, the young man suddenly came: "Young Master, the master of the family is here to appreciate the snow, please leave quickly."
Fang Xin had already explained it to him, and this was the master's territory, so he stood up and wanted to leave.
At this time, the old man inside had already brought the two of them over, followed by two servants. When Fang Xin left, he was stunned. The young man was so handsome, with his eyebrows as if he was cut, and his eyes were dark, so he said, "Young Master, don't leave, come up and talk together."
Fang Xin was twenty years old during the Chinese New Year, but his holy power was in his body and he restrained his official spirit. Therefore, it was natural to look like a handsome young man. Fang Xin also looked at him and saw that he was wearing silk, silk, silk, beads and shoes, and was over fifty years old. He was powerful without anger. This temperament, at a glance, he knew at least those who had once been in power.
Behind him, there was a scholar in his twenties, wearing a silver crown on his head, a blue shirt on his face, and a jade-like face. He looked either a scholar or a juren.
A monk followed behind him, and some people carrying food boxes.
Fang Xin bowed slightly and said, "The student is reckless, and the adults are angry."
The group went to the pavilion again and sat down when they saw the ceremony. The young man offered tea, opened the food box, picked up the dishes, and served wine.
The old man said, "Where is the place where the young master is?"
"Student Li Rui is from Congjiang Mansion, and this time he is returning to his hometown." Fang Xin said calmly.
The old man was shocked and asked, "But the second-largest man in Congjiang Mansion?"
The second place is the most impressive thing, but the whole province knows about it.
Fang Xin said, "I am just lucky to be blessed by the emperor's grace!"
The old man was shocked and said, "It turned out to be Lord Li, old Wei Nanzhu, who once served as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. He resigned because he was sick and returned to his hometown for five years. It was so lucky to meet. This is my son-in-law Zhang Zhuo, who passed the imperial examination. His father is the prefect of Aries Mansion."
The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, a fourth-rank official, Fang Xin smiled and said, "The son-in-law is really a handsome man, with extraordinary temperament and a juren. He is also a juren. I believe he will be on the imperial capital's gold list in the future.
He saw the ceremony again and asked Fang Xin to sit in the second position. This is the social level.
"The second-guess man was not the magistrate of Guming County, how could he return to his hometown today?" Wei Nanzhu asked.
"With the grace of the court, the student was a sixth-rank attendant of Hanlin Master. He was injured before the New Year, so he was able to go home to cultivate." Fang Xin said calmly, neither boasting nor hiding. It turned out that this kind of news had not yet spread to the world.
Zhang Zhuo was also surprised and stepped forward to salute: "It turns out that sir is already a sixth-rank attendant in Hanlin. It's a blessing to meet him. If you have any rudeness, I hope to forgive you."
Fang Xin smiled and said, "Why should Mr. Zhang be so polite? It was me who took the liberty to come!"
After a few more words, Fang Xin said frankly. Wei Nanzhu was shocked when he heard that Fang Xin had already given him a baron and said, "So sir, he is already a noble person. I am so proud. Come inside, it's a blessing to be able to entertain the master!"
He was once a Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, but he was just an official. According to the court rules, one of the fifth-rank officials was born as a ninth-rank official, and the fourth-rank official, two of them were born as a ninth-rank official, one was a ninth-rank official, one was a ninth-rank official, one was a ninth-rank official, one was a ninth-rank official, one was a ninth-rank official, and one was a ninth-rank official, and one was a ninth-rank official, and the second-rank official, and the second-rank official, and this was recommended.
But that's all, the title is rare. Once you get it, the legitimate sons will be titled for generations, far above these fourth-rank officials. Moreover, in terms of system, they can be listed as a cauldron and a bell when eating, so they are also called the home of bells and tripods.
At that moment, I invited me to come in, set up a banquet, and sat in the host and host, toasted a few cups, and talked about some poetry and political affairs. Both aspects were considered cooperation, and I had no time, so I had a happy talk.
It turns out that Wei Nanzhu also has no son and only one daughter. He married Zhang Zhuo as his wife. Zhang Zhuo has already passed the imperial examination, so naturally he does not need this blessing, but this blessing can be used on his grandson. Therefore, Wei Nanzhu does not need it now. When his grandson is born, if he cannot pass the imperial examination, he can also arrange it for them to be born.
Zhang Zhuo was enlightened at the age of five, could read the Five Classics at seven, and could write articles at thirteen. He was admitted to the Tongsheng exam at the age of twelve, passed the scholar at the age of fifteen, passed the Juren at the age of eighteen, but he was a Jinshi for the second time, and failed to win the imperial examination. This is a deep regret, and he was revealed in his words.
After hearing this, Fang Xin said, "Being a Jinshi is really a life, two fortunes, and three studies. It is not the fault of the young master. However, if you ask more scholars, open your mind and cultivate your sentiments, there are still some. If the young master is willing, you can come to our house. I want to ask the great scholar Huang Shaoyang with you."
Zhang Zhuo immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, it is a blessing for students to ask for advice, let alone studying for the great scholar Mr. Huang together?"
