Lin Bai:......
It’s the uncle of Zhenbei Prince’s Mansion. Hey, hey, hey! Have you asked my brother?
The great talent is really tired.
But looking at the snack food, he suddenly didn't know what to say. This girl looked a little silly and stubborn, but her eyes were extremely firm.
Ling Xiyu also seemed determined to rebel openly for her uncle.
Of course, maybe she also understands that she can only rely on her uncle, because in the future, her son and daughter will only have one route to the southwest, so...
Bah bah bah! !
What kind of uncle, the talented man himself was completely confused.
But then again, with the help of Zhenbei Palace, the success rate of this trip will undoubtedly be greatly increased.
only……
Lin Bai looked at the two of them and said, "I still think it's safer for you to leave first."
Duan Rongrong immediately refused after hearing this, shook her head repeatedly, and finally took action, holding Lin Bai's arm and refusing to let go.
The talented man was speechless, and he felt as if this little girl had not grown up.
Ling Xiyu, on the other hand, looked like, "You see what I say doesn't count."
Lin Bai had no idea.
Looking at the harmless face of the snack foodie, I didn't know what to say for a moment.
Ling Xiyu said: "That's it. If you leave first, it might arouse people's suspicions. Besides, those people may not listen to you if we are not here."
Her meaning is very obvious. Although you are a county horse of the Zhenbei Palace, you have not made it public yet. Moreover, even if it is made public, it is still a matter of rebellion. People under the Zhenbei Palace may not listen. Only if they are here, those people will listen. will do it.
If you want to put it this way, the great talent is really at his wits end.
Perhaps thinking of leaving, Ling Xiyu's face showed a sad look again.
How could Lin Bai not see it?
This was unacceptable. After all, he came to the capital of Dali just to save Duan Zhenglong, but Duan Zhenglong wanted to become a monk without even seeing anyone.
After thinking about it, Lin Bai said: "I can talk to the Prince of Dali and try to let you meet the King of Zhenbei."
Ling Xiyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Okay!"
After the matter was settled, Lin Bai was too lazy to be pretentious.
With the help of the Prince of Zhenbei, he will undoubtedly be more confident of breaking through. As for the uncle-in-law, we will talk about it later.
I get a headache from thinking too much.
After that, he went directly to the Prince's Mansion and explained his purpose.
The Prince of Dali did not make things difficult for him. For him, it was just a one-time meeting and it was not a big deal.
Moreover, the great talent used the excuse of persuading Duan Weifeng, so the Prince of Dali naturally cooperated.
In fact, the great talent is not worried about Prince Dali at all, because he also wants him to help him cook Duan Weifeng, and this small request will definitely be satisfied. However, he is a little unsure about Duan Zhenglong.
This old guy didn't know what was going on in his mind.
If you don't want a wife and children, just become a monk.
He also entrusted his daughter to his rival. Is this something a human being can do? There is simply a pitfall.
never mind! He didn't bother to worry about it. Now that it was confirmed, he had to make preparations in all aspects.
the next day.
Lin Bai rarely got up early in the morning. He was pressed for time and had no time to spend. Today he was going to take Snack Guys and Ling Xiyu to see Duan Zhenglong.
"Why are there so many people?"
Before arriving at Tianlong Temple, the great talent noticed countless people rushing to Tianlong Temple along the way.
Chaiyue is also full of curiosity.
Ling Xiyu explained: "Today is the first day of the lunar month, the fasting day of Tianlong Temple. On the first day of every lunar month, countless people come to offer incense and pray for blessings."
I see!
Lin Bai nodded, and then noticed that in addition to some people praying, there were also some ragged men, who didn't look like they were here to pray.
Ling Xiyu snorted, "These are all here to become monks."
ah?
Lin Bai's eyes widened, so many monks?
Maybe he realized that his mother and concubine were unhappy because of their father's decision to become a monk, so the snack guy quickly said: "Actually, many of them are poor people who came to become a monk because they couldn't survive..."
The great scholar probably understood, because Dali had a prosperous Buddhist culture and treated monks extremely favorably.
After becoming a monk, you don't have to pay taxes, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing in the temple.
Therefore, many poor people become monks when they can no longer survive.
There are even more benefits to becoming a monk in some places.
Lin Bai nodded. It was similar in previous lives. Monks did not have to pay taxes, and even many fugitives ended up in temples.
"Hmph! Most of the poor people are lazy and lazy."
However, Ling Xiyu obviously has a different view, "Because when a monk enters the temple, he doesn't have to do any work, he has no worries about food and clothing, and he doesn't have to perform military service..."
Lin Bai was startled for a moment. Are there so many benefits to being a monk?
You don’t have to pay taxes, you don’t have to be a soldier, you don’t have to do corvee work, and you don’t have to worry about food and clothing. Isn’t this what I imagined a soft rice would look like.
Pooh! !
What are you thinking about? There is no such thing as the fragrance of a beautiful woman.
However, will there really be no problems if we do this? In this case, wouldn’t common people all be vying to become monks? How can this country survive in the long run?
Ling Xiyu added: "Your father used to hate these monks the most, and said that this situation must be changed, but now..."
She was obviously resentful and her face was gloomy.
But Lin Bai couldn't help but frown, feeling vaguely that something was wrong.
The group of people arrived in front of Tianlong Temple Square. There were more pilgrims and tourists here now, and it was a huge crowd.
In front of the square, many monks from Tianlong Temple are holding morning classes, reciting scriptures and praying for blessings.
This is the process of Tenryuji Temple’s fasting days, which happens on the first day of every month.
The generous pilgrims will make large donations and compete for the top spot.
At this moment, in front of the monks, a woman in red had won the first incense and was offering incense to pray for blessings.
Duan Rongrong recognized the woman in red at a glance, "It's the Sixth Princess. She must be praying for His Majesty's safety."
That's right! That woman is Duan Yiyi.
None of them came forward to say hello. It was unnecessary. They came to see Duan Zhenglong, not to offer incense.
The last time I came here, the talented man walked around the square and came to see the temple behind.
"who?"
The previous guard general blocked a group of people, but fortunately, he recognized Lin Bai.
Because the Prince of Dali had already given instructions, the guarding generals naturally did not dare to embarrass him and only said: "King Zhenbei has already gone to the main hall to participate in the tonsure ceremony."
What!
Hearing this, Ling Xiyu's face suddenly turned ugly, then turned around and ran towards the main hall.
Although she had expected that her husband was going to become a monk, and her daughter had already told her about it, she still couldn't believe it or couldn't accept it until she actually saw it.
That's why she wanted to ask him face to face, but now that she heard that her husband was participating in the tonsure ceremony, she couldn't bear it anymore.
"Let's go! Let's go take a look as well."
Lin Bai said hello and quickly chased after him.
