Chapter 654 I am willing to help Master Yuankong return to secular life and adopt him as an adopted daughter (1st update)
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhizhong turned his head and saw the traitor Cai Jing with a solemn expression.
Although there was no flaw on this guy's face, his eyes looked very gloating.
"Master Yuankong escaped into Buddhism, and he was not in a good mood to come to the official family."
"Wu Shangshu, if you press forward step by step, not only will it not help the matter, but it will annoy the officials. The proof is right in front of you."
"Wu Shangshu, you are a rare loyal minister in our dynasty. If you argue with the officials for the sake of national affairs, a lower official would understand it, but you..."
The group of subordinate workers in front of me are very weird. Who is Wu Zhizhong? He is an old driver who dares to point his nose at Cai Jing and confront him.
After hearing these sarcastic remarks, he laughed angrily and pointed at the subordinates.
"Okay, okay, I remember what you said today."
After saying this, Wu Zhizhong sneered and walked away. Several familiar ministers quickly caught up with him and tried to persuade him.
However, Wu Zhizhong was like a bull who never looked back until he hit the south wall. No one was willing to pay attention to him and he quickly left the court.
The abbot of Lingyin Temple couldn't even speak. Wu Zhizhong suddenly raised his eyebrows and shouted sharply at the abbot of Lingyin Temple.
Soon, a shocking scene appeared again. The emperor's beloved daughter, now Master Yuankong, actually bowed to Wu Zhi, the ill-tempered Minister of Rites.
Then I saw Wu Shangshu, who had beard and hair as white as snow, come to the front accompanied by Chen Shilang, the abbot of the temple, and other monks and nuns.
And persuade the other party to rekindle hope in life and the world, and then accept her as a stepdaughter.
Chen Shilang wiped his face, although he felt that Guan Jia and Wu Shangshu acted a bit too much.
Wu Zhizhong tilted his head, looked at the ministers behind him who had slowed down, and continued to stride forward.
A group of people also wiped their tears secretly. As more and more people gathered around, many pilgrims heard the discussion and came closer.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone who knew that Master Yuankong was Zhao Fujin, the beloved daughter of the official family, was in an uproar.
As for Taiwei Gao Qiu, he wanted to give him some advice, but when he thought that this old guy who claimed to be a loyal minister had a good relationship with his son, he had a good relationship with himself, haha...
In the eyes of Chen Shilang, an insider, the acting skills of these two seemed rather exaggerated and left many unsatisfactory qualities.
"For such a young girl, her life has just begun. Why would she want to cut off all ties with the world and be with the ancient Buddha's green lantern..."
This is a separate courtyard. Zhao Fujin lives here with the two maids who take care of his food and daily life. By the way, he takes him to practice. Well, it's really convenient.
Chen Shilang stood aside and watched the old man and the young man performing in front of them.
But having said that, only in this way can the criticisms of those ministers and workers be resolved.
"Come, follow your old age, ahem, follow your father and go home..."
Wu Zhizhong wanted to tilt his head and ask Zhao Fujin to leave with him directly, and then he could rush to the mansion of Captain Gao to propose marriage.
Just like today, the official reputation was cut off from his beloved daughter Zhao Fujin, and the ill-tempered Wu Shangshu went to find Master Yuankong who had escaped into Buddhism in anger.
"Now that I have adopted this adopted daughter, how dare Lingyin Temple stop me?"
"You just happen to go with me to Lingyin Temple to be a witness."
He actually persuaded Emperor Maode to recognize him as his father, and Wu Zhizhong simply took Yuankong and went directly to the Kaifeng County Government Office to go through the adoption procedures.
But what blinded people the most was that Wu Zhizhong, an important official of the imperial court and the Minister of Rites, was in the court hall, urging the officials to withdraw their orders.
The beloved daughter of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Maode Diji, escaped into Buddhism and became a nun, which was enough to shock everyone.
Then he turned his head and was about to salute. He realized it just halfway through and quickly changed his mind to giving Zhao Fujin a gentle hand and gentle words of advice.
As a result, there was a verbal conflict with the officials in the court, and the bad-tempered Minister of Rites actually played a dirty trick.
Zhao Fujin quickly tidied up his appearance, covered his black hair with a monk's hat, and then walked out of the room.
This is equivalent to solving the problem of Zhao Fujin's status as a noble daughter of the Tian family.
"...The daughter pays homage to her father."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Fujin, who had also worked hard to marry his beloved, his eyes turned red and he couldn't help but shed tears like pearls...
"Mr. Wu, Mr. Wu, can you please slow down..."
The magistrate of Kaifeng County was immediately confused. How could he dare to do such a thing?
Forget it, at most I can wait until Zhang'er returns to Bianliang, Tokyo, and then have a good talk with him.
However, for those onlookers who did not know the truth, it was really heartbreaking to hear it.
#####
The entire Lingyin Temple, oh no, or the entire Tokyo Bianliang area was excited about it.
As a result, the civil and military officials really had nothing to say except that they admired Wu Shangshu for daring to face the emperor's anger and not fearing death.
It's a pity that for the sake of the official's face, Xiao Gao became the number one scholar. He, an old helper who was supposed to be the leader of the public, had no choice but to toughen up and become an important role in the process.
"...I understand."
After taking a look at the people around him, Wu Zhizhong let out a deep sigh and started his performance.
At this moment, I heard the old voice shouting.
"...If Master Yuankong does not give up, I am willing to help Master Yuankong return to secular life and adopt her as an adopted daughter."
Wu Zhizhong walked away quickly, and all the familiar ministers could only watch helplessly as the other party walked away quickly.
But Chen Shilang kept walking and followed closely.
The abbot of Lingyin Temple had red eyes and kept whispering the Buddha's name.
He rushed directly to Lingyin Temple and found the Maode Emperor Ji whose Buddhist name was Yuankong. After persuading her hard.
When Wu Shangshu strode into Lingyin Temple, in a short time, under the guidance of the abbot, he arrived at Master Yuankong's residence in Lingyin Temple.
"We can't be slow. If those guys come here, we'll be in a lot of trouble again."
When a nun came quickly to deliver the news, she said that Wu Zhizhong, the Minister of Rites, had something to do and had to pay a visit to Master Yuankong.
One side is the Minister of Rites, and the other side is the official family of the Song Dynasty. Do you still want the official hat on your head?
In the face of the Kaifeng County Magistrate who frantically expressed his refusal and even cried bitterly to dissuade Wu Shangshu from causing such nonsense.
Wu Shangshu was in great pain and sat in the hall with a dark face without saying a word. Fortunately, his old partner Chen Shilang was a smart man and immediately pulled the county magistrate aside to mutter something.
However, no matter how eloquent Chen Shilang was, the county magistrate's attitude that he would rather die than obey made Chen Shilang numb and unable to do anything.
At this time, the official who had received the news looked at Yang Jian beside him. Yang Jian bowed to the official with understanding and walked away quickly.
