Chapter 25 The twenty-fifth chapter is ironic and persuasive, and the king's meaning is loyal and sincere.

In autumn, the clouds were clear and the blue sky was clear. Kangxi took Wei Dongting and Bumble Shan on horseback to the west gate, and the Baiyun Temple was already in sight.Bumble smiled and said: "Long live, it's the end of the year, and it's not yet the day of society. The three of us, master and slave, are running side by side in this barren stick. We know that we are going to play; I don't know You still think we are thieves!" Hearing this, Kangxi reined in his horse and looked around. It was really desolate and deserted, so he smiled and said, "Thieves are only a short distance away from the emperor. If you stick to the kingly way, you will be the emperor. If you follow the evil way, you will be a good man. If you follow the evil way, you will become a hero." There's a thieves."

When Bumble heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and said, "The master's knowledge is so advanced and his holy thinking is so quick, the slave can't match it." Wei Dongting didn't care to listen to the two of them talking and joking, and only paid attention to the movement around them.Seeing Hao Lao Si from a distance, the stubborn donkey pretended to be a poor mower and seller of firewood, and scattered nearby to cut wickers. Knowing that the arrangement was ready, he smiled and said, "Long live, we will arrive at Baiyun Temple in front of us."

Kangxi took a look.As a result, I saw the mountain gate standing faintly among the cloud trees.He got off his horse and said, "Let's not be thieves anymore, let's be tourists. It's not very respectful to ride a horse into the temple." At this time, more than a dozen guards dressed in long entourage came with wine and food utensils, and the three of them took the reins Give it to a guard to take it, and walk to the gate of the mountain. Baiyun Temple is located three or four miles away from Xibianmen. It was originally the "immortal palace" of Qiu Chuji, the leader of the Taoist Quanzhen sect during the Jin and Yuan dynasties, and it was the side of Yuanbi Changchun Palace.After Qiu Chuji became immortal, his disciple Yin Zhiping led all the yellow crowns to change this side to Guan, and the name was "Baiyun", taking the meaning of Taoist riding a yellow crane and riding a white cloud.

In the early Qing Dynasty, Beijing was conquered by troops; a fire broke out outside Xibian Gate, which destroyed hundreds of palaces and houses, as well as dozens of nearby houses.There are piles of rubble and clumps of basil in the courtyard, which looks very quiet and desolate.The only surviving hall of worship and the clay sculptures under the east corridor give people a sense of mystery, and the clay sculptures drawn according to stories attract tourists and pilgrims. Bumbleshan looked around, seeing that there were few people, and he thought to himself: Baiyun Temple is the most dilapidated one of the famous temples in Beijing. It is incredible that the third child chose such a place to visit.When Wei Dongting went to pass the decree yesterday, he guessed what Kangxi was thinking, and he also wanted to know how this baby emperor treated him. ——was in a daze when he saw that Kangxi had entered the mountain gate and looked up and down beside a wrong golden incense tripod, hurried over to examine it carefully, and said with a smile: "The couplet on the mountain gate is not bad, 'Respect the sky and love the people to govern the country, be kind Thrifty and quiet to cultivate one's morality'. Well, the words written by the former Ming Emperor Zhengde are not vulgar."

Kangxi didn't answer, but looked around the six-foot-tall tripod with great interest. Speaking of this incense tripod, there is also a legend.According to legend, when the incense was flourishing in those days, Daotong only had to get up in the morning to burn incense and pinch the fire, without manpower, and the mountain gate would open itself after a while.When it is dark, the water is stored in the tripod, and the gate of the mountain is closed by itself.In fact, even the little Taoist priests didn't know that the incense tripod and the mountain gate were connected by news. People spread rumors and believed that the Taoist priest of Baiyun Temple was in charge of the Nine Heavens Talisman Records, and all these temple affairs were handled by gods.Therefore, although the temple is decadent, even the most money-greedy person dare not touch him with the money on the tripod.

Kangxi knocked on the tripod with his hands and said with a smile: "It's a pity that Ao Zhongtang was not invited, he has the power to lift the tripod. Ban Burshan, tell me, can he move the tripod? This question is too explicit.It turns out that since Dayu made a tripod for each of the nine states in the world, "aspiration" has become synonymous with usurping the country.In the third year of King Xuan of Zhou Dynasty, the son of Chu helped the emperor to attack Luhun. After the victory, he paraded in the suburbs of Luoyang.Chu Zi took the opportunity to inquire about the size of the nine tripods in Wangsunman's temple, intending to occupy them.At this time, Kangxi's introduction of this code naturally has the effect of knocking mountains and shaking tigers.Bumble is good at reading all books, how can he not know this classic?I just found it quite difficult to deal with, so I hesitated for a while before I laughed and said: "This tripod is probably two thousand catties, so Ao Zhongtang may not be able to move it."

"Infinite Life Buddha!" ​​When the three of them were looking at the cauldron, an old Taoist priest in his fifties came out from the east ear room of the Tai Chi Hall at the back, cupped his hands and said, "Lay monks are blessed! It's rare to be so devout and come so early. The one in front Guanyu is deserted, and the backside is still clean, please come in and have some tea!" The three hurriedly turned around to salute, and Wei Dongting said, "Please do as you please. Let's pay our respects at the front first, and then go to the back later! " After Wei Dongting saw the Taoist walk away, he said with a smile: "This is for us. Except for the Taoist priests who can collect some incense money on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, it is rare for pilgrims to come here on weekdays. Seeing how many of us Here you go, you are dressed in riches and honors again, how can you let this bull-nosed person easily let you go!"

Kangxi patted his body and said with a smile: "Unfortunately, I didn't bring any money out today!" Bumbleshan hurriedly took out an ingot of fifty taels of silver from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "The servant dare not compare with the Long Live Lord. Wherever you go, you must bring some silver." Wei Dongting said: "It's a pity that it's too big. One tael of silver can buy one hundred and thirty catties of white rice. If you give it all out, people may be suspicious." Then he took the silver and held it in his hand, and he squeezed his palms, "Boom! "With a sound, the silver was broken in two.He threw the big piece back to Bumbleshan, weighed the small one and said, "I'm afraid there are twenty taels, this is considered a wealthy pilgrim." Shocked, even more apprehensive.He said with a smile: "This move by Hu Chen, I'm afraid it won't work if you don't have a thousand jin of strength, but this is not Lintong Doubao, why is it so?"

Kangxi invited Bumble to come here today for the purpose of investigating him.After all, he is his own elder brother.If you still think about the brotherhood and agree with each other, that's all.Unexpectedly, Ban Burshan was just pretending to be stupid, and felt that the matter was not that simple, so he couldn't help but feel a little irritable.He said, "I've seen this tripod. In the corridor over there, there are clay sculpture stories about Tang Monk's ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties in learning scriptures. More than half of them are destroyed. I don't know what happened to the rest. Why don't you take a look."

Bumble was good at watching his face, knowing Kangxi's intentions, he sneered in his heart.He was about to speak when he saw a little Taoist priest coming over, holding a tea tray made of khaki-yellow bundle noodles, on which three cups of clear tea were steaming.Then he laughed and said, "Huchen, I've answered your words, send the money quickly!" Then he withdrew and followed Kangxi to the east corridor to read the story. Here, Wei Dongting put the silver on the tea tray and said with a smile: "Xiao Xianchang, we don't need tea; you can take this silver and go!" After speaking, he wanted to go back to Kangxi, but he saw Wu Ciyou lifting the front of his long gown and going up the stairs with great interest. On the other hand, he turned around and scrutinized carefully beside the wrong golden tripod.Aunt Su Ma followed closely, but seemed a little distracted, looking around frantically.Wei Dongting was startled suddenly, turned his head to see that Kangxi and Bumbleshan were appraising the statues one by one, then quietly backed away.Aunt Su Ma had also seen it earlier, leaving Wu Ciyou aside, she pretended to be unintentional and came over.

The two turned to the back of the broken wall in the west corridor, and Wei Dongting complained in a low voice, "My aunt! What kind of job is this called? Here you are dealing with a monster of the world, why did you bring another big platinum star? What should I do? " "You're right!" Aunt Su Ma said, "All the people from the Suo Mansion have been transferred to the vicinity, and the defenses are almost empty. If he wants to come, I'm a house slave, can I stop him? Hurry up and think of a way, just bury your wish!" Wei Dongting frowned tightly, and said after a long while: "Since you've come, you'll be at ease. It's not an option to hide blindly, and it doesn't matter if you just see me." Aunt Su Ma said: "I'm afraid that Mr. Wu will make a loud noise. What can I do if I call out 'Long'er'?" Wei Dongting said with a smile, "It's a big deal and it will be exposed—you should keep quiet, be vigilant, and act according to my wink." After finishing speaking, Wei Dongting left in a hurry, and listened to Kangxi talking and laughing from a distance: "This Qiu Chuji is also making trouble out of nothing. The bull-nosed Taoist boasted about the monk and wrote "Learning from the Western Paradise". Later generations will come up with these stories. Placed in the Sanqing Dojo." Bumble smiled and said: "Yes, it's better not to have these stories when the temple is rebuilt in the future." Wei Dongting heard this, and hurriedly said: "Speaking of 'Journey to the West', I also heard a joke. I entered the customs When soldiers came to Hejian Mansion, the people in the city wanted to avoid the disaster of the war, and walked away completely. There was an old man who looked at the door god before going out, and sighed: "With Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao here, the world will not be in such a mess." It just so happens that the neighbor is an old pedant of the three parties. Hearing this, he pouted his beard and said, "The door god is the god Cha Yulei! Qin Shubao and the others are made up by the old man Qiu Chuji, you just believe it!" This old man Dissatisfied, he moved out, and the pedant found "Feng Shen" to argue with him, and fought until dark, and the city gate was closed. On the second day, soldiers broke through the city, and both of them died in the chaos." Bumbleshan laughed out loud when he heard it, but Kangxi saw Wu Ciyou and Aunt Su Ma walking towards them from a distance, and felt anxious, so he couldn't help but wink at Wei Dongting.Wei Dongting was speaking with great interest, when he caught sight of Wu Ciyou approaching, he pretended to be surprised and said, "Ah! What a coincidence, isn't this Zhu Biaotai? It's a pleasure to meet you!" Wu Ciyou was startled, and was about to speak when Wei Dongting turned around and introduced Kangxi, "These two are working in front of Biezhongtang. This is Brother Long Ming, and this is Jia Zicai. We haven't seen each other for a long time. It's just a coincidence. It's all done—" Speaking of this, Wu Ciyou even has spirituality in a piece of wood.Hearing the two names made up by Wei Dongting, La Aunt Su Ma wanted to laugh but didn't dare, but Wu Ciyou helped her and said, "Wanniang, haven't you met the three masters yet?" La Aunt Su Ma stepped forward and smiled Authentic three blessings. Bumbleshan didn't see anything unusual, but felt that the two names he made up seemed ironic. He looked carefully at Wanniang, she felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before, but he couldn't think of Su Ma anymore. On Lagu's body, there was only a smile but not a smile. He said: "I have admired you for a long time! How about we walk together?" Wu Ciyou said with a smile: "Since we are friends on the table, we will go together naturally." Although he said this, his heart was full of suspicion. A crisis that revealed the truth was finally healed for the time being. Kangxi's hanging heart slowly let go, and now he was calm, so he asked Wu Ciyou with a smile: "Mr. Zhu, do you think this story is well portrayed?" "Man said it's the work of a later generation pseudo Tuoqiu Changchun," Wu Ciyou said, "Even if it's true, what's the point of Taoist priests praising monks?" It was actually a false entrustment, which is really unheard of.Kangxi hurriedly asked: "Sir, you never said anything, so how can you say it wasn't Qiu Changchun's work?" Wu Ciyou said with a smile: "Why do you need to look elsewhere? Just read this article and you will know—Jin Yiwei in the Jisai Kingdom, Ritual Supervisor in the Zhuzi Kingdom, Dongcheng Bingma Division in the Extermination of France, and the Great Scholars in the Tang Taizong Dynasty. , Hanlin Middle School was set up only in the Ming Dynasty, where did Qiu Chuji fabricate these things?" When Wei Dongting saw that Wu Ciyou's conversation was getting up, he was afraid that he would be endless, so he took the time to intervene and said, "Zhu Biaotai, how can anyone stand here and talk? Why don't we go to the broken pavilion over there, where we have ready-made food and wine, and write poems there." Just kidding, okay?" Kangxi had talked a lot with Bumble, although he felt disappointed, he still wanted to try again, so he smiled and said, "Okay, let's obey the Huchen!" After reading the story for a while, listening to Wu Ciyou's high-spirited speech, and messing with ghosts and gods in the worship hall for half a day, it was already noon before I knew it.The autumn wind rolls up clouds of dark clouds gradually, and the yellow sun is overshadowed by the flying clouds.In the broken pavilion, these tourists with different minds and different interests were brought together by chance and fate to drink and compose poems. . A carp jumped up, flipped over in the pool, and sank to the bottom of the water again with a "gudong".Kangxi started a sentence and chanted slightly: The brocade scales of the sword pool leap over the shadows of the clouds, Wu Ciyou said "Good"!continued: Breaking through the autumn sky is about to emerge. Wei Dongting said: You're showing your ugliness—— In order to ask the number of good fortune, Bumbleshan pondered for a long time before continuing: Destroy Qingbo towards the golden dragon! Kangxi applauded and applauded, but Wu Ciyou said: "It's all about the poem, but the last line is just a tribute to the sacred and the vulgar. This is not the strategy of the Golden Palace. Where is there any Golden Dragon?" Aunt Su Ma heard what Wu Ciyou said, and looked at Kangxi worriedly, but Kangxi didn't care.Bumble Rare Book was suspicious of Wu Ciyou's origin, so he couldn't help but feel relieved at this moment.Thinking to myself: "I'm suspicious. If someone surnamed Zhu knows this master, how dare he say such a thing?" Then he laughed and said, "Mr. Zhu is right in teaching. It's just that the beauty of reading, human affairs and affairs should be attributed to the king's relatives, and the rest are not from my generation. Dare to imitate it." Wu Ciyou said with a smile: "This is certainly reasonable, but how many poems and essays have been written throughout the ages, if they really praise the beauties of the monarch and relatives, how can they be read? The important thing is that the emotion comes from the heart, and the ambition comes from the words , or sent to the mountains and rivers, or entrusted to the flowers and the moon. How can the holy way be restricted by one frame?" With these eloquent remarks and the previous experience, Bumbleshan knew that he was by no means his opponent, so he just laughed it off.Wu Ciyou's excitement was still unfinished, he took a sip of wine, leaned on the railing and chanted: Climbing the mountain and facing the water to send the general back, who said that Song Yuqiu's guest is sad, Sit and watch the white clouds and think about the strong wind, and listen to the chanting of the red leaves. The cuckoo crows in the spring mountain and never returns, and the fishing rod hangs in the cold rain of the Sejiang River. Hearing the crowing of the rooster, the unbearable Haoshi chanted the wild goose flying south! As soon as the tone fell, Kangxi repeatedly praised: "This is poetry, and today's experience of Baiyun Temple is not in vain!" La Aunt Su Ma listened but said nothing, with crystal tears rolling in her eyes, afraid of being seen, she hurriedly secretly wiped. Wei Dongting saw that Bumble was staring straight at Wu Ciyou, knowing that he was suspicious, so he smiled and said: "Zhu Biaotai has become arrogant again. But we came out today for fun, pretending to be full of white clouds and strong winds when we go back, can uncle Blame me?" Kangxi laughed loudly after hearing this: "Huchen used to make jokes sometimes. What do you do?" Wei Dongting said with a smile: "It's better to tell a joke, whoever speaks badly will be punished with wine!" "Okay!" Bumble said with a smile, "Let me say first - a scholar died and went to see the King of Hades, and the King of Hades even farted. The scholar presented a piece of "Fart Fu" and said: 'King Fuwei, Gao Yu's golden buttocks, Hongxuan's precious aura, vaguely resembles the sound of silk and bamboo, and resembles the smell of musk orchid. The minister stands up to the wind, and the fragrance is overwhelming!' The king of hell was overjoyed, and he was released to return to the sun after increasing his life. Twelve years later, when the limit is over, I will see the King of Hades again. This talented scholar swaggers up to the Senluo Hall with his toes high and high.Hades forgot about him, so he asked who he was, and the kid laughed and said, "It's the scholar who made fart that year!" '" As soon as the voice fell, Wu Ciyou laughed loudly: "This Mr. Jia Zicai is a real celebrity, and he can insult all the flatterers in the world with one word!" Kangxi couldn't help laughing, and when he thought about it, he couldn't help being furious, and said secretly: "I am rude!" But he didn't bring it up, just said: "Tiger Minister, it's time to listen to you." Wei Dongting pondered for a long time before saying: "I'll continue with the fart story just now. There was a man named Chen Quan in the Ming Dynasty. The eunuch took it. The eunuch said: "You are Chen Quan. I heard that you are good at joking. If you say a word, you can make me laugh, so I will let you go."" Chen Quan responded, "Fart! The eunuch couldn't help being stunned, and asked, "How do you say this?" Chen Quandao: "It's up to the father-in-law to let go, and it's up to the father-in-law not to let go." '" When everyone heard this, they all applauded and laughed.Wu Ciyou laughed so hard that he said, "I also have one—a wealthy family who came from a singing career. His mother died, and he asked someone to write a memorial tablet. It must be grand, with the word 'respected', but not distorted. No one could write it after spending a thousand taels of silver. A showman—the one Mr. Jia mentioned just now—was extremely bored, so he accepted the job. He went up and wrote a big letter: "I am honored to be a cabinet scholar, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, added the title of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and took the spiritual seat of Madam Liu next door to the servant of Prince Shaobao, the Minister of Internal Guards." Everyone laughed again when they heard this, and even Lagu Su Ma, who was standing next to her, couldn't help laughing out loud. Kangxi said: "I also have one. The family wanted to live in a good house. They sold the land and stored food, and borrowed money. It was finally built, but they couldn't even eat. A friend of his came in and looked at it with a raised face. Seeing it, he said: "This house is well built, but it owes two beams." Asking him what happened, the friend laughed and said, "I don't think about one, and I don't think about the other!"" This story is told, except for Wei Dongting who smiled slightly, no one else laughed,' Wu Ciyou said with a smile: "This story is more persuasive than satirical, and it didn't make everyone laugh. You should be fined a cup!" Kangxi had to drink with a smile.Bumbleshan listened to these jokes, every sentence seemed to be stinging, but he couldn't say it out, and secretly scolded Wei Dongting: "I don't know where to get a wild scholar." But he said with a smile: "I also talk about a scholar: there is An academic officer, retired and returned to his hometown, made a plaque by himself, and wrote the words "literary family" on it. A scoundrel pasted the word "wen" on it at night, and it became "again to the family". In a rage, I tore it up. Unexpectedly, after one night, the dots on "Wen" and "Jia" disappeared, and became "Another Xianshi Tomb". This family was taken off, scrubbed clean and hung up. The next day, "Wen" and 'family' are all confused, only the word 'dedicated to the world' remains..." He didn't tell all the jokes, and everyone fell down laughing.Wei Dongting said: "Mr. Jia's joke is really good, I deserve a glass of wine!" Bumble drank with a smile, and asked, "Is Huchen still doing well?" Wei Dongting said with a smile: "Although I am ignorant and incompetent, there are some good jokes - about a nearsighted person, who picked up a firecracker on the road during the Chinese New Year. I didn't know what it was, so I leaned on the candle to look at it, and when I didn't think about it, I ignited it." Pao Nian'er exploded in his hand with a "bang". A deaf man next to him could see clearly and asked, "What did you just hold in your hand, why did it fall apart when it was in good condition?"" Everyone thought about it, and Wu Ciyou laughed and got up early and said: "You are really there, Hu Chen! It's been a long time since I came out, and I still have something to do, why don't the blind shoot the cannon and the deaf look at it-let's leave today!" Turning around, he called "Wan Niang ", so he took La Aunt Su Ma to go.
