Four years ago, Zhao Ran was prospering in Wuji Yard, but brothers Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai were still working in the inspection room of Wuji Yard. They had worked hard for nine years each, and almost completed the ten years of the Huo Gong layman.
After the signing period is over, there is still no hope of becoming a full-time official and receiving an ultimatum.
Compared with Zhao Ran, who was also a pyrotechnic engineer in subdivided houses, it was like heaven and earth. In fact, the two of them followed a normal path. After completing the ten-year pyrotechnics period, they came down the mountain and returned home. This is the return journey for most pyrotechnics.
However, Zhao Ran's fortune was so astonishing. When compared with Zhao Ran, these two people suddenly became unbalanced and almost collapsed in despair.
Just when the two of them felt that their future was bleak, Zhao Ran made a special trip to deliver a bowl of chicken soup. After drinking the chicken soup, Zhou Huai decided to switch to Zhao Ran. Finally, in the thirteenth year after entering the Taoist sect, he became the primary school student of Baimayuan.
The sutra master of the street temple. But Jiao Tan chose to start over, pick up books, and resume his academic career.
Zhao Ran also helped Jiao Tan on the road to the imperial examination and wrote to Kong County Zun and Xia Zun, who were in office at the time. As a result, Jiao Tan passed the county examination and the prefecture examination and became a boy student.
But after that, Zhao Ran stopped paying attention to Jiao Tan's career because he was transferred to Song Fan. Now that he met Zhou Huai, he naturally wanted to ask a few questions.
Zhou Huaiyin said: "At the end of last year, Jiao Tan took the college entrance examination, but failed to enter school. He took the college entrance exam for the second time last month and failed again... He came back to me for a drink and got drunk..."
Zhao Ran was silent for a moment and said: "The journey of starting a career is equally difficult. If you have a chance to persuade him, it's better to cheer up. It's just two missed attempts. It's not easy for thousands of troops to cross a single-plank bridge.
"The year before last, when Mr. Kong was promoted to be the magistrate of Long'an Prefecture, he had several correspondence exchanges with me. He said that Jiao Tan's knowledge and articles were good and he had great hope of entering the school."
Zhou Huai smiled bitterly: "Jiao Tan's knowledge is indeed good, but he focuses on Taoism. Since Xiang Zhiyuan presided over the provincial examination the year before last, the examination questions have begun to focus on Confucianism. Zhang Tixue also had to comply with the imperial court's requirements for career development.
, the college examination also began to focus on Confucian classics, and this is where Jiao Tan suffered."
Zhao Ran frowned: "How dare the imperial court do this? Three years ago, the Yuanfu Palace Zhenshi Hall held a meeting and rejected the emperor's idea of naming his biological father the emperor. This has clearly shown the attitude of our Taoist sect. Why are we still worshiping Confucianism?"
Zhou Huaidao said: "We are doing well in Sichuan, but you, abbot, are busy in the border areas, so I don't know that this Confucian culture is getting more and more intense in Zhili, Zhejiang, and Henan in the south. I don't know how the general view is doing it. How many people have done it?"
After giving instructions as to whether it hurts or not, I just let it go."
The general view mentioned by Zhou Huai usually refers to the lower view of Jianji Temple, which is the highest Taoist temple in Shifang Jungle led by Abbot Shen Yunjing and Supervisor Zhang Yangming. Therefore, Zhao Ran plans to write to them when he has time.
Chen, remind them to pay attention.
But these are all things for later, Zhao Ran can only bury his head in front of his eyes for the time being.
Lu Fangzhu concurrently served as the temple's consecrator, Lin Yuwen served as the hall master, and Zhou Huai became the sutra master. Zhao Ran also appointed the Taoist boy who had the best academic performance in the past year in the Baima Yuan sutra hall as the hall master, and the small street temple's prestige was lifted.
It was built.
Zhao Ran's establishment for the small street temple is four ordained Taoist priests and six fire-gong laymen. The four Taoist priests are full, and the rest is to fill in the fire-gong. Among the six fire-gong, Baozhong is counted as one, starting from Baima
If one more person is found in the hospital, there will be no more people to squeeze out. After all, the manpower of Baima Court is already tight.
Although the small street temple is newly established, it is necessary to start the actual preaching of the three groups and face various complex situations. If you randomly find people to fill in the numbers, you may make mistakes. The best way is to recruit people from other Taoist temples.
Fireworks with rich experience came over, just like Lin Yuwen who Zhao Ran hired from Xizhenwu Palace when Junshan Temple was newly established.
When Lin Yuwen didn't receive the ultimatum, he was still called Lin Shuangwen. He worked in the Xizhenwu Palace for ten years as a fire dweller without receiving the ultimatum, so he was recruited by Zhao Ran to Junshan Temple. He could take on a lot of work right away, which was very useful.
After thinking about it, it really reminded him of a person, Zhang Wujin, a layman in Xuanyuan Temple. It was four years ago that Zhao Ran accompanied Bai Tengming from Xizhenwu Palace to Xuanyuan Temple to run an official career. This guest room was used to convey messages.
The fire work left a good impression on him. I wonder if Zhang Wujin has received an ultimatum in the past four years, or has his term expired and left the mountain?
Zhao Ran has always had friends in Xuanyuan Temple. They were Song Zhiyuan and Zhao Zhixing before, and now there is Xue Tengqian. This friend was introduced to Zhao Ran by Song Zhiyuan at the Ye Xueguan meeting. After that, every time he went to Xuanyuan Temple, he would take the initiative.
I went to pay a visit to Xue Zhike, and it comes in handy now.
Xue Tengqian is Xuanyuan Guan Zhike, one of the eight deacons in Sichuan Province, with a prominent position. He happens to be Zhang Wujin's top boss. If I tell Xue Tengqian about this matter, it is a simple matter, so I believe he will help.
Anyway, Taoist Nangui was idle, and the duties given to him were transportation and communication. Zhao Ran simply made full use of it and asked him to deliver letters to Qingcheng Mountain. Within three days, the wild goose came back.
What surprised Zhao Ran the most was that Taoist Nangui actually sent Zhang Wujin and Zhang Wujin's luggage and parcel to Baima Courtyard. The method was also very simple. He held a big basket in the bird's beak, and Zhang Wujin and his luggage were all there.
It's packed inside and can be transported directly by air for 600 miles! This saves Zhao Ran half a month's time.
Zhao Ran greatly appreciated, not only the IQ of Taoist Nangui, but also his attitude towards dealing with things as a spirit demon without being arrogant, so he decisively picked out a few of the spiritual fruits that Bai He rewarded him and fed them to him
Eat.
"I must emphatically praise Director Nan Gui. In this regard, Mr. Baishan is not as good as you. You are indeed a good demon. You are a good demon who only serves the public and forgets his own selfishness!"
Taoist Nangui flew to the Bell Tower of Baima Courtyard to rest in a happy mood, leaving Zhang Wujin behind, along with Xue Tengqian's reply.
Zhao Ran now unfolded the letter, and Xue Tengqian told Zhao Ran that his request for people this time was very timely. In one month, Zhang Wujin will expire and leave the mountain. At the same time, he also talked about Zhao Ran's situation in the White Horse Courtyard of Hongyuan.
There are many political achievements. It is said that these achievements are all in Zhao Yunlou's heart. Yunlou Supervisor has mentioned them in public at least three times, "Preaching must be like Zhao Zhiran."
At the end of the letter, he reminded Zhao Ran to be careful, saying that Yue Tengzhong had visited Xuanyuan Temple many times in the past two years. He heard that he had to report the situation of Songfan to Ye Dujiao every time. It was said that Ye Dujiao was very upset.
Several times on the inkstone.
Zhao Ran couldn't help but laugh. This Ye Dujiao seemed to like throwing things. Didn't Ye Xueguan throw it just for himself? Bai Tengming also threw it when he successfully became the abbot of Xizhenwu Palace. After hearing that he was in charge of the White Horse Courtyard, he couldn't help but laugh.
After the incident, he continued to fall, and I don’t know how many good inkstones he broke. It was a pity.
