The king is not the king, the minister is not the minister

According to legend, Yueming Temple was where Master Jianzhen taught scriptures and precepts before his journey to the East.

I don't know what that boy Qiruo is thinking, but now Yu Zhuo claims to be half a Taoist priest, but he wants to visit the Buddhist temple.Of course, the scenery in this area is really good and worth a visit.

After all, Xu Yilu was also born in the imperial examination in the previous dynasty, so he could read and write easily.He talked loudly and non-stop in the carriage along the way, quite eager for the "appreciation" of Mr. Zuoxiang.

If he was willing to hand over his private account, Yu Zhuo could consider interceding in front of the emperor, but now, he just wants to change the carriage.

There is a bell on the Qiling Pagoda of Yueming Temple, which Yu Zhuo guessed means the morning and evening.

After getting out of the carriage, Yu Zhuo looked at the ancient temple, and suddenly said mockingly: "In the past, Master Jianzhen brought all kinds of civilization and enlightenment into the country of Japan, but now the country of Japan has repeatedly invaded the southeast of Dajing. Master Xu, do you think the country of Wa is ungrateful and repays revenge for kindness? earth?"

Xu Yilu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes."

"Master Xu should know why he came here?" Yu Zhuo asked.

The prime minister of a country, but now he came to the local area, if it really didn't stir up some troubles, how could he let it go.Xu Yilu quickly forced a smile and said, "Where do you want to investigate?"

Yu Zhuo laughed, and asked: "To investigate the truth, or to watch Master Xu act?"

Xu Yilu's mind was blank immediately, and when he came back to his senses, Yu Zhuo's group had already walked a long way, and hurried to catch up.Now that he has taken the position of Fu Yin, it is natural for the two prime ministers to find out what they like.Prime Minister on the left is low-key, and Prime Minister on the right likes luxury, so they all come to Yueming Temple in casual clothes.

Today's Muxiu is full of people and there are many stalls, so it is a bit crowded.Yu Zhuo didn't stop thinking about Xia Houzhan, for fear that he would be scattered by crowds.He also quickly whispered in Xia Houzhan's ear: "I'm afraid that at this time, Xu's residence will be robbed."

Xia Houzhan just glanced at him and slightly opened the distance between the two of them.

"Master Yu, Master Yu!" Xu Yilu squeezed over panting, he received countless looks at him along the way, but he couldn't show his prestige at this time, that was aggrieved.

Seeing that his face was flushed, Yu Zhuo fanned him with a fan for a while, and asked, "Master Xu, do you want to understand?"

Xu Yilu didn't expect him to say that when he came up, and he was still talking nonsense with his eyes open: "The lower official is stupid, I don't know..."

Not to mention the sweltering heat right now, but it was also crowded. Xia Houzhan interrupted Xu Yilu and asked Yu Zhuo: "Hengqing, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you leave early."

The hand shaking the fan stopped immediately, and Yu Zhuo said: "I'm not that delicate, at least I have to go to the temple to worship, right?"

The ancient trees in the courtyard are towering, and the smoke is lingering. The big Buddha in the treasure hall is solemn, and the prayer flags are solemn and colorful.Seeing all the Buddha statues, Xia Houzhan was a little dazed, but he couldn't name any of them.

There are not a few people kneeling and worshiping. Yu Zhuo glanced at it, took the cigarette handed to him by Zhulan, and said, "Just bow and salute. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, so you don't need to kneel to the gods and Buddhas."

The two bowed three times.

"Why doesn't Hengqing kneel?"

With a faint smile, Yu Zhuo asked: "My lord, if you don't kneel, why do you kneel with a pile of clay sculptures?"

When Yu Zhuo was inserting incense, Xia Houzhan looked sideways slightly, feeling emotional: Although this person is quite gentle, he is full of pride and will never submit to anyone.

It happened that Yu Zhuo also turned his head, saw Yu Zhuo staring at him, wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and asked, "Your Majesty, is there anything on your face?"

Don't look away, Xia Houzhan immediately ignored him.

"Has Master Xu ever offered incense?" Yu Zhuo asked Xu Yilu who was still standing at the gate of the hall.

Only then did Xu Yilu come back to his senses, and casually said, "I've...been there." After he finished speaking, he realized that he had been staring at the two of them, and he hadn't paid homage to them.

"Let's go." Yu Zhuo counted the time, Qi Ruo should have turned the Xu Mansion upside down by this time.

Squeezing out of the crowd, Yu Zhuo decisively chose to ride in the same carriage as Xia Houzhan.

Therefore, Xu Yilu's expression became a little awkward again.I had no choice but to ask the aide who was pretending to be an entourage: "Where is this official making the left minister unhappy? Why are you scolding this official inside and outside?"

"Could it be an adult's account book..."

"Impossible, the place where I hide, even if Yu Hengqing thinks about it, he won't be able to find it."

"My lord, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case." The staff reminded.

Before entering the gate of Xu's mansion, a servant hurried over and said, "My lord, my lord, something has happened, thieves have entered the mansion, and a lot of things have been lost!"

Xu Yilu got off the carriage in a hurry, and asked: "A thief, how could he be a thief in broad daylight?"

Yu Zhuo just got off the carriage, and said with a half-smile: "It's broad daylight, how could a thief be so courageous as to steal into the mansion."

Xu Yilu almost got angry, and shouted: "Quick, go and call Catcher Lin."

Not long after, the people from the yamen came, but they also looked at each other in blank dismay. They often didn't get close to Xu Yilu's inner house when they were on duty, so naturally they didn't find out who the thief was.

Mrs. Xu also came out crying, saying that the few land deeds she had hidden in the jewelry box were missing.

This "thief" did not go far, but stared at Xu Yilu secretly.The latter waited for Yu Zhuo and his party to return to their rooms, and hurried to a utility room.

This time, Qi Ruo listened to Yu Zhuo's suggestion seriously, and searched through every room. Although this utility room was inconspicuous, there were two piles of ancient books in it, and Qi Ruo also picked up one.

Seeing that the most eye-catching book on the pile of books was gone, Xu Yilu's face changed drastically, and he quickly climbed onto the shelf, pushed aside a wooden board, and revealed the shrine inside.

There are at least six or seven booklets on the shrine.

Qiruo thought to himself, these corrupt officials are really interesting, and put the ledger in the altar.Is this asking for the blessing of the Buddha, or hoping that the Buddha will act on behalf of the heavens.

After confirming that there was no problem with the account books, Xu Yilu carefully restored everything to its original state.Little did he know that everything he did was under the noses of others.

Qi Ruo jumped off the beam, looked at the white figure sitting in the study, and said, "I got it."

Unexpectedly, when the man turned around, it was dyed ink.

"Sure enough, just a back view is quite similar." Yu Zhuo got up from the bed, adjusted some messy clothes, and said, "Since Mr. Xu likes to act in front of me so much, tomorrow, I will go out in disguise. Let Ranmo take my place here."

It is naturally a bit more difficult to change into an established person. They don't have the time to make a complete picture, so they can only make do with it.

"What if it is discovered?" Qi Ruo handed the account book to Yu Zhuo.

Looking through the ledger, "It's okay to be found out. When we go out, he can still find it. Now the prefect Bacheng thinks that we stole the things, but does he dare to question it?"

But it's still not safe to leave the account books in the Xu Mansion, Qi Ruo suggested: "Send it to the branch of the Yangzhou Imperial Office."

Yu Zhuo's memory is excellent, he flipped through the whole book from beginning to end, and all the lives have been brought to mind, and then handed the account book to Qi Ruo.

"Okay, I'll go first."

An unremarkable gray pigeon flew to the window where Xia Houzhan was.Yu Zhuo wanted to take a closer look, but Xiao Dezi grabbed the pigeon,

"Hey, what are you looking at?"

"Why don't you leave?" Yu Zhuo turned around, Qi Ruo jumped off the beam again, and followed Yu Zhuo's line of sight to look out the window curiously.

Qi Ruo said, "That dove is not used by the officers of the Royal Office for communication."

Yu Zhuo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your eyesight is good."

"That's not younger than you, and your eyesight is dim." Qi Ruo wanted to hide as soon as she finished speaking, but took the fan on her head firmly.

"The emperor should have his own means, so he can rely on his teacher and me for everything." Yu Zhuo sighed and continued to repeat what he said just now, "Why don't you leave?"

For some reason, Qi Ruo inexplicably heard relief in the tone of the previous sentence.

The twilight is thick, the thunder is billowing, and there are bright lights tearing the night from time to time.

After watching the weather outside the window for a while, Xia Houzhan put the pigeons in the old birdcage on the window sill. He estimated that the letter might be damaged if it was released in a thunderstorm.

As a result, when Yu Zhuo saw it, his complexion changed slightly: "This...why is there a bird?"

"It's just a pigeon, what's the matter?"

Yu Zhuo immediately closed the window, making sure he couldn't see it, and said, "Forgive me, Your Majesty, I can't see these things that flutter and are covered with hair."

For no reason, Xia Houzhan suddenly remembered that Yu Zhuo once compared him to a sparrow. Could it be that Yu Zhuo actually didn't like him in his heart?

In fact, this is just the shadow of Yu Zhuo staying on Lingyun Terrace.There are too many seabirds on the island, and sometimes if you go to the wrong place, you will get covered in feathers and bird droppings.

For some reason, I thought of Lingyuntai again.

Standing at the door for a while, Xiao Dezi looked a little annoyed at the expressions of the two of them, and asked cautiously: "Master Zuoxiang, is Your Majesty having dinner?"

Looking back, Yu Zhuo smiled and said: "Oh, yes, let's go quickly, if you wait any longer, Mr. Xu should be suspicious again. Your Majesty, the account books have been sent to the Imperial Office. Later, I will be silent for you .”

Seeing his smile, Xia Houzhan's expression softened a little.
