Following the young monk who led the way, Daiyu and Baoqin arrived at the east wing of the temple. They saw intermittent arguments coming from the half-open window.

Daiyu heard her brother's frustrated tone and quickly walked a few steps faster. As soon as I got closer, the words in the wind became clear.

According to Chen Tanyue's argument, 'this mind is sufficient' and 'all living beings have Buddha nature' are actually different but have the same purpose.

Of course. Chen Heng's voice had a rising tone, and Daiyu guessed that her brother was half-smiling when he said this.

No. Someone argued, This is just for the sake of arguing.

This is arguing for the sake of arguing. Chen Heng was also very shrewd and could be regarded as treating the other person in his own way.

The person who asked the question was obviously at a loss for words. He didn't expect the young man to be so ungrateful. Daiyu secretly laughed, stopped the young monk's message, took another step forward, and stood in the corridor with Baoqin.

There are hundreds of flowers in the courtyard, and the shadows of the trees and flowers intersect colorfully in front of the corridor. The two girls stand side by side, looking like E Huang and a female hero. They all listened to the debate in the room. At this point, it has already discussed the 'possessed' and 'Buddha-nature'.

I don't have much experience with Buddhist scriptures, and my knowledge of human affairs is also insufficient. Chen Heng said loudly, Let's just say it for the time being. I'll just listen to the few masters.

It's okay to say it, Tan Yue.

Gai Mo's theory of reading and the words of Buddha are inseparable from the theory of 'existence and non-existence'. However, Shi Jiamen still have to refer to the word 'empty' when it comes to existence and non-existence. It can be said that 'there is no direction, no direction' Emptiness, emptiness is neither existence nor non-existence, it is actually the emptiness of dependent origination.

This statement made all the monks who had heard it happy and appreciative. They all said, Good. Good answer. Tan Yue has also read the Diamond Sutra? Tan Yue, please continue.

The principle of scholars is not in the word empty, but in the word tong. It connects the heaven and the earth above, connects the country and the country in the middle, and connects the common people below.

What's the explanation for this? someone asked.

When Chen Heng thought about it carefully, he suddenly felt that the elegance of this word was lost due to the lengthy description. After thinking deeply, he said: The light boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains, so it is the word Tong.

The masters who heard this all knew that this was not a scholar's argument, but actually the words from the bottom of his heart. The abbot sang a promise of 'Amitabha' and expressed his admiration: At such a young age, you have such enlightenment. Tan Yue really has good wisdom and is destined to be my Buddha.

Chen Heng was also dumbfounded. Why did he mention that he had a predestined relationship with the Buddha? Before he could reply, a quick cough came from outside. As soon as he heard this, he knew that it was his sister who was looking for him, so he stood up and said goodbye to everyone.

The host had a guest chatting with him today, which was quite interesting. At this time, he did not accept any guests, and only said: Tan Yue's conversation is extraordinary. I don't know if I will get a lot of gossip from today's meeting in the future.

Master's good advice. Chen Heng said with a smile as he went out, This stroke must still be done on the mural.

The host looked at Xue Danyue again and asked: Thanks to Xue Tanyue's wonderful brushwork, please leave a name for this painting.

The latter witnessed the day's debate and felt his ears and eyes were fresh. He immediately said: Let's call it Youwu Kong to remember today's painting, today's meeting, and today's debate.

good.

After everyone went out, Chen Heng walked quickly to Daiyu. When saying goodbye, the host also advised Xue and Chen to come and sit and move around when they had time.

Chen Heng thanked them one by one before leading the two girls and Xue Biao to the front yard. Arriving in front of the mural in the front yard, there were fewer people enjoying the view, and the slanting sunset light shone on the mottled wall. The water-carrying monk painted by Xue Biao has a self-satisfied expression and looks forward with a smile. The clothes on his toes are flying, as if a gentle wind is blowing on the viewer, making the viewer immersed in the scene.

Jia Baoyu was still standing here in a daze, but when he saw the four of them arriving side by side, his expression suddenly changed. The words of praise he had spoken before were now like a bayonet stabbing into his heart. He hesitated, not knowing whether to say hello to Daiyu or not. The leader, Chen Heng, ignored him and the girls from the Jia family. He just stood aside silently, waiting for his sister to say goodbye to them.

The two parties parted ways, and the carriage stopped at the archway at the foot of the mountain. The four of them could only walk down the mountain. Daiyu walked a lot today and was a little tired at first, but because the abbot said, I have a predestined relationship with the Buddha, she became so angry that she had endless strength in her body and walked so vigorously that Chen Heng hesitated and laughed secretly.

Sister, what's wrong with you?

On the mountain road paved with sunset, Chen Heng caught up with Daiyu and smiled without saying a word. Daiyu was even more angry when she saw his dead look. He just said angrily: I didn't know that my brother and a monk could have such a pleasant conversation.

She is confused when she cares, and she thinks too much when she is talented. My heart had just been promised to my brother, and this bad guy actually had a lively chat with the monk. It was a small matter at first, but when she thought about the previous time that Chen Heng left her alone to have fun, she felt even more aggrieved.

Chen Heng only guessed half of her thoughts. He didn't think that any woman was difficult to raise. Not only do I love Sister Lin's delicate and smart personality, but I also love her occasional little temper.

No one is perfect, we are beautiful because of beauty, and we are beautiful when we see beauty. Chen Heng naturally understood this truth. But why do you want to coax her like this? With a frown, he knew he was planning something. He said: Next month is the wedding of Brother Du and Sister Wei. I was just thinking about asking the master to give me a consecrated Avalokitesvara to give me a blessing. It would be my best intention. My sister said, yes or no.

This sounded so ordinary, but Chen Heng winked as he said it. The Xue brothers and sisters still couldn't hear it, and they thought of their brother's words many children and many grandchildren when he signed the lottery. Lin Daiyu had already laughed out loud and stopped on the side of the road, covering her stomach and laughing. After laughing, he glared at Chen Heng again and said angrily: Brother, you are so annoying.

Just don't be angry. Chen Heng raised his eyebrows with a proud look on his face. He has taken the initiative to replace his sister's words of brother with his mortal enemy in his mind. The fun in it is not enough for outsiders to understand.

Oops. Xue Biao suddenly sighed with his hands folded, and several people looked at him sideways. Xue Biao kept saying, I forgot that the middle of next month is Brother Du's wedding. What should I do with this gift?

Like Chen Heng, he can be invited to attend weddings. The first is because of the friendship between Daiyu, Baoqin and Qijun, and the second is the friendship with Du Yunjing as classmates.

You just draw a picture of Guanyin giving away children. Chen Heng is really evil-minded and makes two gifts for one idea. How could Daiyu let this man mischief and miss Qi Jun's joy? She quickly raised her hand and pinched Chen Heng's waist. This was a subconscious move. After Daiyu finished doing it, she realized that there were outsiders around her. His face turned red for a moment, and he didn't even want to stay where he was.

Chen Heng laughed and chased after him in the light and shadow.

The mountains and fields are crimson and the autumn light is long. This situation and this situation deserve to be said to be worthy of the world.

The happy vacation was too short. Chen Heng rested for another day at home and then returned to the Yamen of the Sixth Section to continue working. After the freshness of his first visit to this treasured land wore off, Chen Heng soon realized the disadvantages of doing things inside the palace gate.

When I was at the Ministry of War, I walked a few steps out the door and found Qipan Street. The lively fireworks in the market are enough for officials from various government agencies to have a good time here. There are many kinds of food from all over the world, and you can also take the opportunity to eat in a leisurely way and be lazy in troubled waters.

Don't even think about it in the palace. Next to it is the cabinet, and there are even palace servants running around. The slightest movement will be reported to Li Zhi. Hey, being in a government office is really like being in jail. You have to be cautious in whatever you want to do.

Fortunately, the affairs of the Sixth Section are not less than those of the Ministry of War. In addition, the number of people is small, so the tasks that each person is responsible for are somewhat more arduous. Because Chen Heng had worked in the Ministry of War, in addition to being busy with maritime and border affairs at hand, matters related to the Ministry of War were often pushed to him.

He and his boss, who is in charge of the payment source of the Account Department, often interact with each other and are considered to be the colleagues with the best relationship in the department. Tomorrow is when Li Zhi announces the reward for the border battle, and the decree has been sent to the Hanlin Academy for drafting. Chen Heng had an acquaintance in the Ministry of War, so everyone pushed him out of the palace and went to the Ministry of War to verify again.

This is the daily life of the Sixth Section, picking out the mistakes of the Sixth Section and checking the work content of the Sixth Section. Chen Heng accepted the matter and walked out of the Meridian Gate with his waist badge.

After passing the Qianbu Corridor and returning to the Ministry of War again, Chen Heng's arrival made his former colleagues overjoyed. There are people serving tea and people ushering in seats. Chen Heng looked around and found that his original position had been occupied by the new Juren.

Zhixing, come and sit with me.

Hahaha, everyone said you would come back when you were promoted, but you told us to wait.

Chen Heng apologized repeatedly and talked to everyone. Before he could sit down for a long time, Yao naturally sent someone to invite him. He then went to Lord Yao's room, and the latter also invited him to sit down.

Yao Ziran had taken care of and supported him a lot before, and Chen Heng had just been promoted, and he would not be crazy and show off. He only respects his duty and still treats the other person as his superior. Yao Ziran chatted a few words about his family, then smiled and asked about Chen Heng's purpose. Knowing that the other party was here for military merit, he cooperated even more readily.

This is the benefit of having people in the ministry. If someone deliberately deceives someone and takes out the yin and yang, it will be really unjust. Chen Heng asked for a few details, and then took a copy of the transcript to keep the copy. He only took the original copy for proofreading in the ministry.

When handling this matter, there will naturally be people watching and supervising. During this period, it also involved the review of many military reports. Chen Heng was involved in this matter and only wanted perfection. There were many things to investigate, and he knew that he was in some trouble. While asking people to help adjust the papers, he also ordered people to go to Qipan Street to get food and distribute it to his former colleagues.

Doing this will naturally attract everyone's favor. Everyone said one after another: If you persist in your conduct, you still won't change your true colors.

After handling the matter, Chen Heng took the copy and got up and returned to the palace. You have to walk the Thousand Steps Corridor again and cross the waist badges again at the Meridian Gate before you can enter the palace. This is the headache and distress of the Sixth Section.

The eighth day of October is a good day for the family of Wei Yinghong, the Minister of Rites. On this day, the house was full of distinguished guests and old friends. Daiyu and Baoqin, as Qijun's besties, came to Wei Mansion as early as last night to make preparations.

Chen Heng and Xue Biao were also inevitable and came to Du's house early to help with trivial matters. Du Yunjing's family background was average, and Hanlin's salary was just that. The house he is renting in the capital now was found with the help of his father-in-law, Wei Yinghong.

The house is not big, with two or three bays, and there are trees and flowers in the courtyard. Under the arrangements of the groom's guests, wedding decorations had already been posted, and everything was festive. Du Yunjing's parents and elders came all the way from Yangzhou, which was considered well-intentioned.

Du Yunjing didn't have many relatives and friends in the capital. Apart from his close colleague Hanlin who was present, his only old friends in Yangzhou were Chen and Xue. One of them was handsome and the other had a high official position, so they were both promoted to be the groomsmen.

When the auspicious time comes, Du Yunjing rides a white horse and wears red clothes, looking very elegant and elegant. Behind him, a group of groomsmen followed on horseback. Du Yunjing's white horse is the most handsome, it is the royal horse in Chen Heng's hand. This horse has a good temper and won't be a problem to anyone riding it.

People beating gongs and drums all the way to the Wei Mansion, where relatives and friends of the Wei family had already set up an ambush at the door. On a happy day, it is indispensable to have fun to entertain others and yourself. Both parties are scholars, so there will be no questions that will ruin the atmosphere. It can be difficult to solve the problem, but it still has the meaning of testing knowledge.

Everyone played happily for a while before noisily breaking into the backyard of Wei Mansion. What greeted them was naturally the checkpoints set by Daiyu and Baoqin.

There is no need to say much about the title, but the answer is auspicious words such as good marriage for a hundred years and many children and blessings. Immediately, one after another makeup-inducing poems sounded. Du Yunjing was very talented and learned, and he was already prepared for this. Chen Heng and other guests will not take over the guests at this time. The master can invite him here to give himself face. If you try to steal the limelight, you are doing something wrong.

After picking up the bride in this way, returning home slowly before dusk, and then paying homage to the parents in the court, the two families were considered to have become friends of Qin and Jin. At this time, it's time for the best man to show off his power. Chen Heng, Xue Biao and others were half drunk at the banquet, and the quarrel lasted until late at night. Only then did everyone disperse, leaving the newlyweds to spend the spring night alone.

When she got home, Daiyu had already returned early with Lin Ruhai and Jia Min. Because Chen Heng drank, he only apologized to his elders outside the hall and then returned to the house to rest.

After opening the door with Xinda, he saw a food box on his table. When Chen Heng saw the secret smile, he stepped forward and opened it. Sure enough, it was a warm sobering soup.

Xinda knew the friendship between Chen and Lin, and said with a smile: My sister-in-law cares about my brother. My second brother will be blessed in the future.

Chen Heng showed a proud expression, Don't worry, I will find you a wife in a year or two.

Xinda didn't expect to get into trouble and said hurriedly: Second brother, please say goodbye. I want to stay with you for a few more years.

There is no conflict between the two things. Chen Heng shook his head and drank the sobering soup in one gulp, and the deliciousness bloomed in his mouth. It's not like you got married and our families separated.

Being blocked by his brother, Xinda couldn't argue, so he turned around and ran away in a hurry. He himself had never thought about something so long ago.

…………

On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, there happens to be a court meeting.

The court has a lot of good things to announce today. One is to read out the rewards for the border officers and soldiers, and the other is to announce the results of the Maritime Administration. These two things were a sure thing, and Chen Heng was just a listener in the queue. His position is in the middle and back. As long as he concentrates on staring at the Wat board, others can't tell that he is deserting.

The official who read out the edict, after reporting various rewards, began to enter the specific names. Different from the Weisuo mentioned above, the names that can appear in the court are all important figures.

Chen Heng didn't know about this list. The ones he proofread at the Ministry of War were all awards below the fourth rank, and Li Zhi personally judged the higher ones. After the officials reported one by one, he suddenly heard a sentence: ...Xin Geng, the governor of the Beijing Camp, was loyal and brave to the country, and he was given the title of Marquis Baoning... He was immediately startled.

Chen Heng thought about it in his mind and felt that the name of this title sounded familiar. After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that in the original book, Wang Ziteng's daughter seemed to be married to the son of Marquis Baoning.

Chen Heng lowered his head, his heart pounding. He could not understand that Xin Suzhao would marry Wang Ziteng's daughter. In the hall, Lang Guan's voice continued. When the handsome man with a loud voice finished reading, he left.

The adults who had been officials in the capital for a long time immediately figured out that something was wrong. The rewards from all walks of life have arrived, but why is there missing Wang Ziteng, who is commanding the rear?

After going to court, everyone went back with their own thoughts. Chen Heng was also puzzled, but after all, this matter had not happened yet. He just wrote it down in his mind and left it to worry about in the future.

After returning to the class room, Chen Heng had not sat down for long before he was summoned to Linjing Hall by Li Zhi. He thought he had some errands to give, so he hurried to the imperial court, only to find out that the governor of Shuntian came to complain to him.

Chen Heng was very puzzled. He had no grudges with this immortal in the past and had no grudges today, so how could he end up in front of Li Zhi? Li Zhi was in a good mood, so he happily gave Shuntian Prefecture Yin a seat and asked him to take care of Chen Heng for him.

From Liu Fuyin's narration, Chen Heng learned what his crime was. It turned out that after Baoqin published the recruitment in Qiupu Street in the newspaper, the attractive conditions he issued caused shock in the countryside near the capital.

We have long heard of Yangzhou's reputation. Such a prosperous place in the world should not be arbitrarily boasted about Haikou. The young people in the suburbs of the capital thought this way, and many people were immediately moved and decided to call their friends to Yangzhou to try their luck and see the world.

These young and strong laborers put down their hoes and sickles and chose to leave their hometowns. It is an extremely troublesome matter for any parent-official who is in power.

Chen Heng found out the other party's problem and was dumbfounded himself. He asked Baoqin to advertise in the capital. His original intention was to attract labor from the northwest, Henan, Hebei and other state capitals. He did not expect that even the villagers in the suburbs of Beijing would take notice.

Knowing the problem, Chen Heng thought of a countermeasure and immediately defended himself: Your Majesty, this can be considered a good thing.

I have to work overtime today. I have a lot of work at the beginning of the month, so I will update it as normal. I will find an opportunity to update on Saturday and Sunday.
