I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai
Chapter 70 23 Things After Home
"Brother, why are you doing this? Tell your parents about your mistakes. I know that you are very sad when your sister-in-law passed away, but you don't need to become a monk!" Wang Erlang looked at his elder brother and tried his best to persuade him.
"I've made up my mind." Wang Yuyi knelt outside the door of her parents' room, licking her dry lips, without any wavering on her face.
Since Chen's burial, he has been kneeling here.At first, everyone thought that this young master wanted to come out.Even if you don't care about him, he won't be able to persist, so don't take it seriously.Unexpectedly, he knelt for two days and insisted on becoming a monk, and everyone panicked.
The two elders of the Wang family persuaded and fought, but in the end they could only close the door in disappointment.In order to persuade him, Wang Erlang's words were almost worn out. Although he sometimes felt that his elder brother would not be promising, but he was his own brother after all, how could he be willing to see his own brother become a monk.
"Wang Yuyi, have you had enough trouble? Is it interesting to make everyone surround you like this?" Ning Caichen couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed Wang Yuyi by the collar, and lifted him up.
Wang Yuyi, who knelt on her knees for two days without eating any food and was beaten twice by her father, didn't have the strength to resist at all. He didn't resist, but just looked at Ning Caichen calmly, neither sad nor happy.
"I have seen through the world of mortals, and I don't want to be disturbed by the world anymore. It's not unreasonable to make trouble."
"How old are you, and you have experienced many setbacks, so you can see through the world of mortals, what a fart!" Ning Caichen took care of Wang Yuyi's face with a fist, and directly slapped a piece of his face.
"Cousin, don't hit me."
"Master Biao, calm down!"
Wang Erlang and the maids and servants who were onlookers rushed to pull him, and when Ning Caichen let go of his hand, Wang Yuyi fell to the ground.With Ning Caichen's violent temper, he was pulled by his hands and hugged his waist, and he insisted on taking the opportunity to greet Wang Yuyi with his feet.Then he was pulled to a place where Wang Yuyi couldn't reach, no matter how much he resisted, he couldn't kick his legs.
In this courtyard, Ji Zihe, the only real spectator, watched the farce. In his opinion, people like Ning Caichen were too much of a showman. In fact, Wang Yuyi didn't get hit a few times at all. Well!
Here Ning Caichen is still yelling to let me go, kicking his legs towards Wang Yuyi, while the other side has already got up by himself and continued to kneel, without any fear at all.
However, this cousin Wang seemed to be different from before, but Ji Zihe couldn't tell.
In fact, he really wanted to tell the truth that his sister-in-law was still alive, but, as an outsider, no one would believe him without evidence.After all, Wang Yuyi saw Chen Shi die in front of him with her own eyes.
Furthermore, Yan Chixia also approached him in private, telling him inscrutablely that the Chen family and Wang Sheng had a chance, and asked him not to interfere in this matter.Ji Zihe still thought that Yan Chixia was an expert, and what he said convinced Ji Zihe, so Ji Zihe was always a bystander.
"Bone, do you think he is really Brother Wang? Could it be a different person?" Ji Zihe asked while touching the relic on his neck.
"We are still in the cold war, I can't talk to you." Bone's solemn voice came from the relic.
"Oh." Ji Zihe cooperated with his performance.
"Stop!" The door of the second elder of the Wang family was suddenly opened.
Everyone was stunned and stopped moving. What the hell, they didn't play this show for the elders of the Wang family!
"Yuyi, come in, your father has something to tell you." Mrs. Wang said.
"Yes, mother." Wang Yuyi got up and walked into the room. Mrs. Wang closed the door with a bang.
Ning Caichen looked at the group of blank guys around him, took a deep breath, and struggled: "Let me go."
"Yes, yes, let go of cousin." Wang Erlang reacted immediately, pushed the servant away, and rescued Ning Caichen.
"Cousin, what do you think about this matter!" Wang Erlang asked Ning Caichen.In the past, Wang Yuyi was most afraid of Ning Caichen, why this trick didn't work anymore.
"Don't worry, my cousin still has another trick."
"I don't know what other tricks my cousin has?"
"You'll know when Yuyi comes out." Ning Caichen made a fool of himself.
Wang Yuyi and the others came out after not staying in the room for long. When they came out, they still had smiles on their faces, and there was no sign of any conflict at all.
Wang Erlang looked at them in shock, and slapped Ning Caichen with his arm, "Cousin, what's the matter?"
"I just reminded my uncle and aunt that it is not so easy to be a monk now." Ning Caichen said inscrutablely.
It's really easy to be a monk. In recent years of wars in the north, taxes and labor have been very heavy. The number of monks and priests has increased sharply in the past few years, but most of them have not been registered by the government.In order to rectify those who become monks and evade tax evasion, the government issued relevant policies to strictly control the number of monks and Taoists.Those who have not registered with the government are all fake monks, and if they are caught, they will be directly sent to the army.
Today's Holy Majesty is a practical faction. In order to show his determination to rectify, he has not even established a state religion. He only worships ancestors and not immortals and Buddhas.He has long been displeased with these guys who recite scriptures all day long, have rich land, and do not pay taxes or perform hard labor.Although it is not enough to prohibit people from believing in religion, if a temple is discovered that dares to shave people without government approval, the government will directly lead soldiers to take over the lair, and the land will be confiscated.
After such actions, countless temples and Taoist temples in the country have closed down, and there are deserted temples everywhere.The income threshold for monks is even higher, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy a quota.To become a monk, you must first pass the family test, not to mention people like Wang Dalang whose parents are still alive, even those whose parents are not may not be accepted.
It's fine for Wang Yuyi to go to the temple, just go to live for a while to relax, and it's fine to become a monk.As long as the Wang family donates more sesame oil money to the temple when sending people to the temple, let the masters in the temple see for themselves how much Wang Yuyi's fate is, who dares to shave him, who dares to accept him.If it is reported, it will not be hair loss but head loss.
However, Wang Yuyi didn't know about this at all. He was originally an idle son, so who would have nothing to ask about this.Never mind that he now has memories of countless lifetimes, but this policy has only been issued for more than ten years, how could he know.
Wang Yuyi is very grateful to his parents in this life for understanding his decision. After going through life and death, he suddenly has more memories of several lives, so that he can no longer tell who he is.Although the appearance is still young, but the psychological age is already a weather-beaten old man.
Wang Yuyi knelt down with a look of emotion, and kowtowed to the two elders of the Wang family, "Father, mother, the child is not filial, and will not be able to serve the elders in the future, please take care of it."
Ning Caichen gave him a sympathetic look, but he didn't know how he would react when he got to the temple and found out the truth.
After something happened here, Ning Caichen and Ji Zihe set foot on the way home.
After returning home, Ji Zihe instantly felt different.Why is it different? Usually, the villagers called Xiucaigong, and Xiucaigong was actually a bit of a joke.But now, no matter men, women, young or old, when they saw him, they all called him Master Juren out of flattery, making Ji Zihe feel like he was 40 years older all of a sudden.
Ji Zihe was admitted to Juren, and the relatives of the Ji clan in the village even opened a ancestral hall to tell their ancestors about the happy event.In their Ji clan, the eighteen generations of their ancestors were mud-legged, and now there are Juren.
For this, old man Ji looked proud, and it was all due to him.
Not long after arriving home, Ning Caichen was about to leave again.The test will be in March next year, and Jingzhou City is far away, so he has to go now.
On the day he left, there were a lot of people seeing him off. His family's seven aunts and eight aunts came, and those who didn't know thought they were some important person.So many melon eaters who didn't know the truth also came over to join in the fun, and directly squeezed the short Ji Zihe out of the encirclement.
Ji Zihe had no choice but to climb up the old tree next to him with the help of Bones, before Ning Caichen saw him.Ji Zihe waved his hand at him, Ning Caichen smiled at him, and said silently, brother, go to Jingzhou to find the way for you first.Holding the tree trunk, Ji Zihe watched as Ning Caichen got on the horse, and the horse flew into the distance, and soon disappeared on the horizon.
"What's the matter, don't you want to part with it?" The bone suddenly came out of the relic.
Ji Zihe shook his head, "No. Bones, why did you come out? Has your body recovered?"
"It's okay." Bones said awkwardly with a strange face, "How do you know?"
How did Xiaohezi know that he was injured? He didn't tell him about it.With so much soul power absorbed by Qinglong, how could he be fine.If you don't feel it when you become a real body, as long as you become a ghost, you can immediately see that he is much more transparent than before.He didn't mean to let Ji Zihe ignore him on purpose, he just didn't want him to worry, that's why he kept hiding in the relic to heal his injuries and refused to come out.
"Because Bones definitely wouldn't want to make me worry. If it wasn't for the injury, why would he not show up for so long?" Ji Zihe said as a matter of course.
"It really fell into your hands." Gu Gu looked at him for a long time, and cursed secretly with a stinky face.
"To be honest, I really want to go with my cousin!" Ji Zihe looked at the direction Ning Caichen was leaving, and said longingly.
"Then why don't you go with him?"
"Not yet, next time."
Ji Zihe had no idea about this test, he felt pressured to take the test, let alone know how to try.When the world's elites gather in Jingzhou, it will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers.
Anyway, he is still young, so what to do in a hurry.It's better to wait a few years, polish yourself, and fight Jingzhou City again.
Ji Zihe looked at the sun above his head, sat on a branch and was blowing a small wind, then looked at his feet, his legs were shaking a little, he hugged the tree trunk with a small face, "Bone, I want to go down."
In the second year, Ning Caichen took part in the general examination, but unfortunately he lost his name to Sun Shan.However, he didn't come back, but entered the Guoxue in Jingzhou, planning to take part in the next exam.As a result, in the third year, the old emperor died and the new emperor succeeded. There was great chaos in the northwest, and the Huns took advantage of the opportunity to suppress the territory.
When the country is in crisis, all domestic resources are drawn to the northwest.Even the imperial examinations were affected and stopped by the new emperor.A large number of passionate young people joined the army regardless of whether they were famous or not, and even Ji Zihe couldn't hold back.
If it wasn't for his lack of age, and the old man Ji talking about him every day as the last only child in his family, maybe he would have gone to the battlefield long ago and become a glorious martyr.
"I've made up my mind." Wang Yuyi knelt outside the door of her parents' room, licking her dry lips, without any wavering on her face.
Since Chen's burial, he has been kneeling here.At first, everyone thought that this young master wanted to come out.Even if you don't care about him, he won't be able to persist, so don't take it seriously.Unexpectedly, he knelt for two days and insisted on becoming a monk, and everyone panicked.
