Chapter 22 Chapter 22 No Fake Master Dele

When Baima ran back to the yard, she saw Deji, the maid and others being driven out from the main building by Tibetan soldiers.Nazhen also ran to the middle of the yard. Seeing the mess everywhere, she asked in horror: "What's going on? I went to find the Living Buddha Duojilin. That young master is fake and has nothing to do with our Dele Mansion. Master, are you making a mistake?" The yamen servant stepped forward to push her, and shouted: "You're courting death, kneel down!" Nazhen was so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground.Deji was also knocked to the ground by the yamen servant with the butt of a gun.Seeing this, Baima rushed over and grabbed the yamen servant. Just as he was about to make a move, the officer shouted, "Stop! Are you Baima Duoji?"

"I am. How is it?" Baima glared at him and said. "How dare you be rude in front of the Kashag Commander, kneel down!" Several Tibetan soldiers surrounded him, but Baima had no choice but to bend down, help Deji up, and half squat and half sit on the ground. The officials began to lecture arrogantly: "According to the order of the Kashag government, all the properties of the Dele Mansion, including mansions, manors, pastures and their subjects, will be taken over by the Kashag government and sealed up. Without permission, they must not be tampered with or opened. No delay! From now on, people belonging to the Dele Mansion will stay in their respective areas and are not allowed to leave for half a step, and the family members of the clan will be guarded by Pema Dorje, waiting for the release of the Kashag!"

After listening to Deji, his body went limp and he collapsed on the ground.Baima raised her head, feeling very helpless and terrified. The officer yelled at the Tibetan soldiers again: "Put the seal!" The Tibetan soldiers in the yard rushed over and began to seal the door with a seal.Everyone watched helplessly as the Tibetan soldiers sealed off the counting room, warehouse, and main building, and the scene was filled with horror! Nazhen sat on the steps, looking at the mess in the courtyard, she looked frustrated, and cried and said: "It's over, it's over, I'm really an unlucky person."

Gangzhu helped Deji to his servant's room, and he said sadly: "Young Mistress, this place is dirty and messy, I have wronged you." Deji was exhausted physically and mentally, and remained silent. "Young Mistress, the old traitor Rinqin has attacked ruthlessly. He eats tsampa and poops. Let's find a way to save the young master. It won't happen if it's too late." "I couldn't close my eyes the whole night for the past two days, my brain was almost exhausted, and I couldn't think of a way." "Young Master Yong Dan is also a copy after all. He has soldiers and generals, so why doesn't he come to help us, as if he doesn't know anything."

"It's already this time, why bother with others, it's fine if you don't come, they will be embarrassed." Baima suddenly said, "Grandma, tell me, will Rezhen Living Buddha save Master's life?" "You mean the Regent?" "I was born in Duojilin Temple, and the master was also born in Duojilin Temple." "You are all disciples of Rezhen Living Buddha. By the way, the master once studied scriptures in a summer warehouse in Rezhen Temple. Now that something happened to him, the Living Buddha should not stand by." Deji said as if seeing a glimmer of hope.

"Then let's go to Rezhen Buddha's residence." Baima said excitedly. "However, Kashag has an order that we are not allowed to leave this courtyard." "Grandma, you come with me, I have a solution." Deji thought of something and asked, "Gangzhu, do we have anything valuable?" Gangzhu regained his energy, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I have hidden them all, and I will go get them right away." Baima brought Deji and Gangzhu to the gate to go out, but two Tibetan soldiers stopped him and said, "According to Kashag's order, the young lady cannot go out."

"Didn't the edict say that I will be in charge of the custody? You are all in my charge, be smart!" Baima said forcefully. "Laughs." The Tibetan soldier compromised. "Listen to me, open the door." The Tibetan soldiers had no choice but to open the courtyard door. Baima accompanied Deji and Gangzhu to the door. He turned his head and said, "Remember, whoever dares to owe you will see me cut off his tongue when I come back." "Laughs." Seeing Baima and the others walking away, the Tibetan soldier gave his companion a wink. The companion understood and ran towards the other end of the alley.

Baima, Deji, and Gangzhu rushed to Rezhen Buddha's residence in a hurry, but Rezhen's housekeeper said that the regent was practicing and would not see any guests today.Then, he closed the door and went back.Baima was not reconciled, and wanted to knock on the door again, but was stopped by Deji. She said, "The Buddha is practicing and needs to be quiet. Baima, if we disturb the inside, we will cause trouble instead." Bai Ma said with a puzzled look: "How could the Lord Buddha not care about it? We just went back like this, and the master is hopeless." "Then what should we do? We can't just leave like this." Gangzhu said.

Deji thought for a while, and made up her mind, she said, "We will kneel in front of his door and not leave." Deji and Baima went down the steps, facing the gate of the Buddhist residence, and knelt on the ground.Gangzhu also came over and knelt beside Deji.Baima said worriedly, "Grandma, we've been here for too long, and Kashag will send people to arrest us and go back." "It's dead anyway, let them catch it." Deji said calmly. After Steward Rezhen returned, he sat under the shade of a tree, casually flipping through the scriptures.After a while, the little lama ran over and reported: "Master the housekeeper, they are still outside, and they have knelt for eight sticks of incense."

"They like to kneel, so just kneel outside. Show me the door tightly, and don't leave a gap to let them slip in." After the housekeeper finished speaking, he continued to chant sutras. The little lama turned around and ran to the gate again, looking out from the crack of the door. Outside the courtyard gate, Deji, Baima, and Gangzhu knelt in the sun, sweating profusely.Deji suddenly felt dizzy and fainted. "Grandma..., Grandma..." Baima screamed and hugged Deji. Deji woke up, braced himself, and continued to kneel there. A group of Tibetan soldiers rushed over. They set up Baima and Gangzhu and dragged them out. A strong soldier picked up Deji, carried them on his shoulders and walked away without any explanation.

Pa Jia led the police to appear at the gate of the Buddha's residence. Looking at the crowd going away, he slapped three times at the gate of the Buddha's residence, and the gate of the Buddha's residence opened.Housekeeper Rezhen and Tudengele came out accompanied by several lamas and Tibetan military officers.Gele looked in the direction where Deji and the others were leaving, and they were drifting away. Pajia couldn't help sighing and said, "The young mistress in Dele Mansion is really infatuated." Geler said: "A woman is a woman, unreasonable." After the Tibetan soldiers dragged Deji and others back to Dele Mansion, a small officer hurried to the Jokhang Temple to report to Kangsa.Kangsa laughed loudly when he heard this, and he said, "Don't mutter, let Rinchen Kalon and Master Nima listen too. Say it loudly!" The junior officer faced them and said loudly: "Tsering Deji, her housekeeper and Baima Duoji ran to Rezhenfo's mansion to ask to see the regent, but they were turned away. We have sent people to drag them back. " "What good news!" Nima said happily. "Reting Rinpoche doesn't want to get involved in this matter at all," Rinchen said. "It seems that Lord Kalon's judgment is correct." "Rezhen doesn't want to take care of it, or he doesn't dare to take care of it. If that's the case, what are we waiting for? Let's go, your lords are still waiting in the chamber, and we'll make a judgment right away!" Rinqin said, turning to leave. Kangsa called Rinchen to a stop, and he said, "My lord, I have one more thing here." Then he took out two books from his Tibetan robe. Rinqin took it and read it. They were two English books. He asked, "What are these?" "This book was written by an Englishman named Moore, and it is a book that encourages the people to resist exploitation and oppression; this book is the "Three People's Principles" written by Sun Yat-sen in the Mainland, all of which were confiscated from the Deleux House." Renqin weighed the two books and said with a smile: "With this, Master Dele will be punished even more!" The next day, the open-air execution ground was surrounded by monks and common people on three floors and three floors outside, including Deji, Zhuoga, Baima and others.In the center of the execution ground was a large oil pan, which had already boiled and was emitting green smoke.Jiangcun, Tashi, Xia Jia and other officials were tied by the arms to the execution ground by the yamen servants. The mayor, Mr. Nima, stood on a high platform and read the verdict aloud: "Jiangcun? Wangjiu Radten, Dele? Qimei Jiebu, Shaka? Nima Tsering and others secretly colluded with each other and used deceitful means to win over monks and lay officials to form an alliance. , attempting to promote the Red Russia system and overthrow the political and religious cause of our Xueyu Buddhist Kingdom, the crime is extremely serious. After the Kashag peace negotiation, the judgment is as follows: Jiangcun? Capital punishment, the Jiangcun family will not be allowed to hold positions in the government from generation to generation; Dele Qimei Jiebu cut off the hereditary title, confiscated all property owned by the Kashag, and he himself was sentenced to death; Zayu..." When Deji heard the sentence, his mind went blank. Nima waved his hand, and the servants put Jiangcun and the others on the board and pushed them to the oil pan.The executioner reached out and grabbed a handful of leaves and threw them into the pot to test the oil temperature.The leaves were put into the pot, and they were burnt with a splash.The executioner held a large copper spoon, filled a spoonful of oil, walked towards Jiangcun, poured the oil on Jiangcun's eyes, and following Jiangcun's scream, a puff of burnt green smoke rose. . Tashi was lying on the chopping board, looking up at the sky, fearless and desperate.The yamen servant pushed him to the oil pan, and the executioner filled a spoonful of boiling oil and walked towards Tashi.Suddenly someone yelled: "Stop..., stop..., stop, stop!" The executioner was distracted, and the oil spilled on the ground, scorching the grass on the ground. A big lama came running in panic and shouted loudly, "Stop, stop, stop! Something has happened, and the regent Rezhen is angry!" Prison officials including Rinchen, Nyima, and Khamsa were at a loss, and Khamsa asked, "Lama Tenjaya, what happened?" The great lama said out of breath, "Tashi Dundup is a Buddhist, how could you do such a cruel thing to a monk." "This is a collective decision made by the Kaxag officials," Rinchen argued. "Rinchen, Rinchen, these vicious things are all your ideas! Dojilin Living Buddha came to lead people, but you don't give them! He clearly told you that Tashi Dundup is a monk from Rezhen Temple, so you should take He was sent to Rezhen Temple to deal with it. Now that the execution is executed without authorization, it is clearly disrespectful to Rezhen King Rezhen, and he does not take Buddha seriously. Therefore, the regent king was furious, and he proposed to abdicate! This mess is up to you Pack it up!" As soon as the officials heard it, they became confused, talking a lot, not knowing what to do.Some people began to criticize Rinchen, why didn't they report to the Buddha in advance?Rinchen was also dumbfounded, unable to answer. The big lama said again: "You are still standing here dumbfounded! The khenpos, big lamas of the three major monasteries, as well as monks and lay officials at all levels are on their way to the Buddha's official residence, begging the Buddha to take back his order! You don't have to hurry! " All the officials woke up and got up one after another to run outside the execution ground.Nima knew that he had caused trouble, so he hurriedly directed the yamen servants and Tibetan soldiers on the scene to send the prisoner back to the prison.In Lhasa, which is extremely religious, the Regent Living Buddha threatened to resign, which will definitely cause a huge shock in both the monk and the lay world, and even disturb the Dharma protector, bringing a bad omen to all living beings.Only then did Rinchen realize that his judgment was wrong.Perhaps, the disaster was imminent, and he hurriedly followed the crowd. Deji and Baima brought some clothes to pick Tashi out of prison, and Tashi asked suspiciously, "I'm really... just released like this?" "Release, Master Nima informed us that we can take you home." Deji said. Gele came in like a gust of wind and urged, "Tashi, get dressed quickly, let's leave this bloody place." Tashi was taken aback, looked at Gele and said, "That's right, I guessed right, you've already seen through my details." "Let's not talk about that. Tashi, this time you were able to escape the death penalty thanks to the blessings of Rezhen Rinpoche! The Rinpoche has only been in Lhasa for more than a year. He wants to help you, but he is afraid that he has no political foundation and sufficient strength. , in the end he did not hesitate to abdicate to protect you." "I'm a little-known ordinary lama, why do I need the regent to spend so much time?" "The Living Buddha is kind. We will thank the Living Buddha for his kindness and virtue throughout our lives." Deji and Baima supported Tashi to go out. When they reached the corridor, people in other cells crowded to the door and stretched out their hands to Tashi: "Master, Master Dele, you are out, please be warm." Zhentuo, save us." Only then did Tashi notice that the other officials were still locked in their cells and had not been released.He asked Geler strangely: "Aren't they all released? Why are they still closed?" "You are a disciple of Rezhen Temple, so it is logical for the Living Buddha to save you. They, the Living Buddha cannot save you." "But... we were locked in for a case." "Tashi, I can't take care of that much anymore, let's go." Tashi stood still, looked back, and asked, "Where is Jiangcun Ziben?" "The judgment of the Kashag remains unchanged." Gele said regretfully. Tashi was very sad, Gangzhu and Deji pulled him out.Seeing that he was about to leave, the people in the cell yelled loudly again: "You just left; it was you who killed us; you lied to us; you went out, and we are still in prison here... " Tashi was in pain and wanted to turn around, but was dragged out by Gele. Tashi and others rode on the street when he saw a group of prisoners wearing white clothes tied with iron chains and being driven out of the city by Tibetan soldiers.They are unkempt, with dull eyes. They are all officials and family members of the "Alliance for Enlightenment Seekers" who have been implicated.Tashi suddenly saw that Xia Jia was also in the crowd. He wanted to get off his horse, but was held up by Gele and Baima. Deji said with a heavy heart: "Master, don't look, let's go." Tashi's eyes were red, and he watched them drift away sadly. After he returned to Dele's mansion, he was disheartened and depressed.The image of Reting Rinpoche is still in his mind.Back then, when I was studying scriptures in Rezhen Temple, the Living Buddha was still a innocent boy.But now, he has become a skilled regent. He used Rinchen to bring down Jiangcun, and he used me as an excuse to defeat Rinchen.In this way, the two forces were wiped out like ashes, and Rezhen consolidated his political position.Who were those who were executed, who were exiled, whose property was confiscated?What am I?Tashi thought that he had harmed everyone and had committed a serious crime, and he was depressed ever since. All day long, he stared blankly and sat on the roof with a blank expression.On this day, Deji walked over worriedly and put a piece of clothing on him, but Tashi was numb and did not respond. Deji kept silent, looked at him silently, and subconsciously reached out to stroke his stomach.A gust of wind knocked off the clothes on Tashi's shoulders, and Deji raised his hand to put them on for him again. Tashi looked into the distance and murmured, "I'm hungry." Seeing that he finally spoke, Deji said happily: "Wait a moment, I will ask the servant to bring it up." "And wine." "Yes, yes. If you want to drink, open your mouth and drink!" Tashi couldn't drink enough on the roof, so he ran to the wine cellar, sat on the ground and continued to drink, bottle after bottle, spilling wine all over his face and body.Deji couldn't stand it anymore, and stepped forward to persuade: "Don't drink any more... I know you are suffering, and the petition is not successful, and I can't blame you. If you drink like this, you will ruin your body." "Go away!" Tashi pushed her away, and Deji nearly fell down, trying to protect his stomach. Tashi continued to drink regardless, looking drunk.Finally, he threw up.Deji couldn't help feeling sick, she was pregnant. Nazhen saw the mystery, stepped forward to support Deji, patted her on the back and said, "Young Mistress, you have... This body, how can it withstand his rough hands and feet." Deji pushed her with his hands, not accepting her concern. Nazhen held out a bowl of hot tea and said flatteringly, "Drink some, just squeeze it." Deji vomited again, she was so miserable that she couldn't care less about rejecting her. "Young Mistress, let the servant help you up and go to my bedroom, no, just go to your bedroom and rest." Nazhen said. Deji was disgusted and ignored her. Nazhen immediately changed her words, and said flatteringly: "Young Mistress, you don't care about villains. I was born in a small family, and I have never seen such a luxurious house. I borrowed your bedroom for a while. How naive. Young Mistress, I packed everything away, and I returned to the original room..." Deji lost his strength and didn't bother to listen to Nazhen's words, so he let the maid help her away.Nazhen was left alone, she gritted her teeth and looked at Deji's back, blushing. Ever since Rezheng regent turned his anger on Rinchen, the monks and officials who surrounded him avoided him like the plague, and Rinchen was so angry that he called them snobs and fools.Just when he was restless, the regent Rezhen sent another monk. Rinqin hurriedly straightened his clothes and prepared to receive the official.The monk followed the butler into the living room, and when he saw Rinchen, he said lightly, "I have nothing important to do. The regent sent me to visit you and give you a message." "My lord, please tell me." Rinchen said anxiously. "Weizang's affairs are big and small. They are endless. If you can't get busy, you will be exhausted! The Buddha misses you for working hard for the great cause of politics and education all these years, and understands your advanced age. He asked the humble official to tell you, Kashag Let go of your government affairs and stay at home to enjoy the rest of your life." Rinchen was stunned upon hearing this, and he was speechless for a while. The monk official said in a dignified manner: "This is the meaning of Rezheng Rezheng, let's do it." Rinchen felt dizzy for a while and almost fell down.The butler hurried forward and supported him. Seeing this, the monk official said regretfully, "It's too old to refuse to accept. Your body is so bad that you really can't handle it! The Buddha is so insightful and compassionate!" Rinqin understood that Rezhen was forcing him to resign, and he was so anxious that he fell ill.Just as he was leaning sickly on the mattress, Congmei ran in and said anxiously, "Dad, Zawa...is gone." "Where are you going?" "When the servant was eating, he slipped out without seeing him. We searched outside with a lantern for a long time, but there was no sign of Zawa." Rinchen was so angry that he jumped up and roared angrily, "Then what are you doing when you come back? Go find them all!" Cong Mei panicked, and hurriedly turned and ran out with the housekeeper and the servant.Qiongda ran two steps away, worried about Rinchen, and turned back again.The huge living room was empty, only their father and daughter were left. Rinchen walked around the room, a little dazed.Trembling with anger, he said, "Misfortunes never come singly! Misfortunes never come singly!" Finally, he stared blankly at the door, which opened mysteriously. Rinchen was possessed by a demon and yelled at the door: "What are you looking at me for? Go find your brother." Qiongda turned her head and looked, but there was no one at the door. She was confused and asked, "Dad, who are you talking to?" "Isn't this your brother Luosang? Why don't you even know him?" Rinchen said nervously. "At the door...there is no one at the door, brother Luosang...isn't he dead?" Qiongda said in fear. "Nonsense! Your second brother is standing at the door. Look, he is wearing a white robe and a white armor and a tiger skin apron. How majestic! The fork gun in his hand is still new. Luosang, go find Zawa quickly, It's a big black day, the streets are full of wild dogs, a bite of him is a big deal. Go, go!" As if Luosang had left, Rinchen Momo waved to him in a daze. Qiongda cried out in fright, and she yelled: "Dad, what's the matter with you..., Dad, don't scare me!" The servants of Congmei and Renqin's mansion carried gas lamps and shouted in the street: "Master Zawa..., Master Zawa..." The street was deserted, and there was no sign of Zawa at all. Ge Le came on horseback, followed by Pa Jia and other followers. The servants of the Renqin Mansion searched and searched, and came to meet him.They continued to shout: "Master Zawa..., Master Zawa..." When the servants saw Tudengrad, they quickly backed away and stood leaning against the wall, bending over and sticking out their tongues. Gele passed them and reined in his horse.Pa Jia understood, dragged a servant in front of him and said, "Look up, and talk to the master." "What are you shouting all over the street?" Geler asked. "Master, we are looking for someone." "Is it from the Rinchen Mansion?" "Nah. Our young master is lost, and the younger ones are looking for him everywhere." "Your young master is lost? That idiot?... Hurry up and find him." The servant agreed, and slipped away from the wall in awe. Gele looked at their backs, thought for a while and said, "Pajia, take a few people to help find Master Rinchen." "What is the use of us looking for him?" Gele was disdainful, whispered a few words to Pajia, and finally told him: "Go back to the base camp and bring more brothers, and spread out to find them." "Laughs." At this time Zawa ran to the Lhasa river beach in a daze, crying and stumbling, his body covered in dirt and mud.Two policemen appeared on the hill not far from the river beach. They looked around and found Zawa.The policeman turned around and shouted: "My lord, there is a man on the river beach who seems to be wearing noble clothes." Paka heard that he was riding up the hill to have a look. He nodded and said, "It should be him." The three rode towards Zawa on horseback.They came to Zawa and surrounded him, and Zawa was so frightened that he cried.The police stepped forward and grabbed Zhawa by the hair, found the gold plate, and he reported: "My lord, look! He must be the young master of the Rinchen family." Pa Jia rode over, looked down at the gold plaque on Zawa's bun and said, "That's right, it's him!" "Go! Idiot, I will take you home!" the policeman pulled Zawa and said. Pa Jia looked around, seeing that there was no one around, he said, "Let's go." He picked up his horse and walked forward. "My lord, we should go east when we return to the city." The policeman said. "Go west!" Paka said decisively. The two policemen were a little dazed, looked at each other, dared not speak, led Zawa, and followed Pajia to the west. They walked all the way to the foot of the snow-capped mountain. Zawa ate and looked at the snow-capped mountain with a smirk.Pajatima stopped, looked at the deserted plateau, and said: "Fool, you are home!" Zawa came over stupidly and said, "I want more, I still eat." Pajia smiled, took out his waist knife, grabbed Zawa's bun with the golden plaque on it, and cut it off with a swipe. "You fucking know how to eat! You stupid thing, go to hell!" The policeman cursed and kicked Zawa to the ground, and Zawa rolled down the hillside. After failing to find the young master for several days, the housekeeper Rinchen rained down on the servant with a whip. The servant knelt on the ground and dodged with his arms raised.The butler scolded as he smoked, "I make you lazy, you don't have eyes, you don't have eyes... You still dare to hide, you dare to hide! I'll beat you to death, kill you to death!" Standing under the parasol, Qiongda lost his temper and said viciously, "I want to be whipped to see blood!" Butler Rinqin was even more ruthless. He whipped the servant's face, leaving a bloody mark. "Eat my tsampa for free, and give you my butter for free. If you can't find the young master and dare to come back, you are looking for death!" Qiong Da cursed angrily.Suddenly, Cong Mei yelled behind her: "Dad, what are you doing?" The housekeeper and Qiong Da heard this, stopped their hands, and looked back. In front of the stables, Rinchen ran out with a basket of cow dung cakes, madly, and two servants followed behind to grab his cow dung basket.The servant begged: "Master, this is cow dung cake, please give it to us." Rinchen hugged tightly and refused to let go. Cong Mei ran over and asked strangely, "Dad, what are you doing with cow dung?" "My son, this is my son... I won't give it to anyone, this is my son..." Rinchen said in a rambling manner. "Dad, let go." Rinchen hugged him even tighter, and he muttered: "No one wants to snatch my son, this is my son...no one wants to snatch away..." Qiongda ran over, pulled Rinqin and said, "Dad, let go, let go! It's cow dung cake..." Rinqin stared blankly at Qiongda, and slowly put down the cow dung basket, and suddenly he grabbed a piece of cow dung cake and started to eat it.Jonda was terrified, and she cried: "Dad, Dad is really crazy...you are crazy, what should I do?"
