Chapter 311: There is a sex

"Madam Yi, be calm, how can I put this pot of flowers in the pot?" Zheng Lang walked to the low cabinet where the flower was placed in the corner of the house and said, and inserted more than a dozen flowers in a white porcelain square vase on the low cabinet. There was a big red lotus in the middle, and there were more than a dozen white Du Ying and golden stone garlic flowers underneath, like stars. Du Ying's flowers were very fragrant, and they brought waves of fragrance from time to time, adding a faint ambiguous atmosphere to the room.

"Master Zheng, why do you say flower arrangement?" Fu Bi said. But in his heart, brother, just say it directly, don't make a puzzle.

"I have talked about the relationship between the doctrines of various religions and the founders, and what kind of environment creates what kind of religion, and the same is true for flower arrangement. There are also flower paths in the West, and only one corner of the flower path is filled with a mess. It is not worth mentioning."

Of course, Fu Bi hasn't seen it.

Because of backward civilization in later generations, Western civilization was indoctrinating into the East, and even flower arrangement was the same. In fact, this is not the case. In later generations, the West was advanced in science and technology, but many arts, the West, are very thin due to aesthetic views and history, also include flower arrangement. In terms of flower arrangement art, Western flower arrangement should not be said to be inferior to Chinese flower arrangement technology, and even Japanese flower arrangement art is not as good as that of Japanese flower arrangement.

He continued: "Only China emphasizes poetry and painting, and has undergone several great ethnic integrations and has a long history. Therefore, artists have given this tolerance and poetry and paintings to the art of flower arrangement. The flowers inserted are poetry, paintings, history, and a spirit of broad and inclusiveness. There are also Japanese girls who visited during the Sui Dynasty. After returning to China, they brought many Chinese calligraphy, paintings, sculptures, literature and gardening, as well as vases for Buddha. Later, Ono girls became monks and lived in Dingfa Temple beside the small pond of Kyoto Rikado. The first pot of Japanese flowers was inserted here. Therefore, Japan also called the flower arrangement school as the Chiba. However, the Japanese environment faced the sea and many places were barren, so they were war-torn and eager to expand to the mainland. This living environment led to the quiet and simple flower path of flower arrangement. Although it was quiet, it was full of solemnity."

Fu Bi doesn't understand flower arrangement very well, and he still doesn't understand what Zheng Lang is going to say.

Zheng Lang continued: "Madam Yi, who did you learn your flower path from?"

Yi Niang didn't answer.

"Are you spend a lot of money to teach Japanese businessmen? But he is not good at skill. In order to make Zhang Daliang happy, you learned the art of inserting Japanese flowers. You did not reach the essence of Japanese flowers arrangement, and this pot of flowers was not well inserted," Zheng Lang said as he started to move the big red lotus to the highest level. He stroked several clawed umbrella-shaped stone garlic flowers below, and a long row of Du Yings below. After packing up, he said: "If you want to arrange Japanese flowers, Du Ying cannot show a layering feeling in this pot of flowers. You must be neat to have the peaceful and solemn beauty of Japanese flowers."

After hearing this, Fu Bi fully understood.

It turned out that I had been to Yi Niang's place. Every time I came, I saw this pot of flower arrangement. It was not necessarily the pot of today. Different flowers bloomed at different seasons, and one pot of flower arrangement could not be stored for many days. But he never paid attention to it, and this was also known in detail.

Zhang Daliang has been in Japan for a long time and has a wife and children in Japan. If Yi Niang didn’t like Zhang Daliang, why should she learn how to wear flowers in Japan?

"Why do you have to leave the original and seek the end?" Zheng Lang said that, only two clusters of Du Ying were left behind. The others were thrown outside, and then broke a bamboo leaf from outside, walked in, arranged flowers again, lowered the big red lotus, and placed two clusters of Du Ying flowers on the side, and the rest of the garlic flowers were placed under the lotus, but they were in the middle of the lotus. The two garlic flowers on the edge lowered the height in turn, and inserted the bamboo leaves on the edge obliquely on the edge of the garlic flowers.

As the bamboo leaves were inserted, the flower arrangement of this pot was immediately filled with infinite vitality. Although the number of flowers used was small, and even a stone garlic flower was tied, it was more layered than the pot just now, three-dimensional, less solemn, and more gentle, more luxurious. Fu Bi couldn't help but hit his palm to cheer.

Yi Niang still said nothing.

Fu Bi was a little anxious. Zheng Lang had a distortion, but was waving to Yi Niang, not the flower art of inserting into the Central Plains, but to make Yi Niang turn back immediately. He advised: "Madam Yi, don't be obsessed with it. Zhang Daliang is using you. He really likes you. With his property, you have been together for two years. Why don't you redeem your house as your concubine?"

Yi Niang lowered her head and continued not to speak.

Fu Bi was even more anxious and said, "Miss, you regard him as Xiang Yu, but he did not regard you as Yu Ji, wake up."

Zheng Lang smiled and said that only the gentleman was Fan Zhongyan. He was not, and Fu Bi was not, but Fu Bi was a little better than others, and he also felt sympathy and pity. But Fu Bi was also obsessed with it and said, "Brother Fu, the white lotus is about to be swept away by the west wind. Do you regret it?"

"I am sorry for him not to fight!"

"If you are attached to appearances, you will be attached to appearances. The Buddha said that love and desire are nothing more than color. The desire is great and there is no other than one. If two people are the same, all the people in heaven will be unable to do the Tao. If a wife does not have the beauty and talent, will the rich brother still have sympathy?"

The previous paragraph comes from Chapter 24 of the Forty-Two Sutra, ** Obstruction of the Way.

The forty-two chapters of the sutra is one of the thirteen chapters, and there are multiple versions of the thirteen chapters. The Diamond Sutra, Vimalakirti Sutra, Lotus Sutra, Lankavatara Sutra, and Shurangama Sutra are the necessary meanings, followed by the Heart Sutra, the Sutra of the Supreme Gang, the Amitabha Sutra, the Sutra of the Amitabha Sutra, the Sutra of the Perfect Life Sutra, the Sutra of the Golden Light, the Sutra of the Brahma Net, the Sutra of the Orbate, and the Sutra of the Forty-two chapters of the sutra of the Buddha's teachings, the Sutra of the Deep Secret Sutra, the Sutra of the Eight Great Awareness Sutras, the Sutra of the Mahayana Sutra, the Sutra of the Original Vow of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the Sutra of the Ten Abduction of the Bodhisattva's Way of Advent, and the Sutra of the Buddha's Divine Transformation and Blessings in Vairocana.

The thirteen sutras depend on their status in their hearts. But Zheng Lang is reading all of these twenty-one Buddhist scriptures.

It’s amazing. There are countless Buddhist scriptures, and it is impossible for all monks to read them one by one. As long as those who read these twenty-one books and understand them can be called masters of Buddhism. In addition, many people are illiterate, and they often use two or three Buddhist scriptures to deceive them.

Some charlatans even don’t know the origin of the Buddhist scriptures and created their own Buddhist scriptures. Is there something so easy to create? For thousands of years, China has only one platform sutra for its own Buddhist scriptures. But the people don’t know it, so Wang Ze’s Five Dragon Sutra and Tears Sutra.

There are multiple versions of the forty-two sutras, but the popular version is not long. Each chapter is only a few hundred words, and the shortest is only a dozen words, and a total of only a few thousand words. Therefore, Wei Xiaobao can hold several forty-two sutras in his arms. It belongs to the Hinayana sutras and is not the popular Mahayana Buddhist sutras in China.

This passage means that nothing is more powerful in love and desire than **, and there are also platonic love, but very few people still need to "integrate spirit and desire" and cannot be in human affairs. How many people can have love, which is very serious. Therefore, ** is the most harmful. Fortunately, there is only one **. If you have two equally powerful ones, no one in the world can do the way.

I don’t know if Fu Bi has read the Chapter 42 Sutra, but this passage means a good ideal. Fu Bi smiled bitterly and said nothing.

"Yi Niang, the Buddha also said that those who love and desire are like holding a torch. When walking against the wind, they will have the danger of burning their hands. Just be moderate, and you must love them rationally. Therefore, Futong Judgment repeatedly advises you." This is Chapter 25: Desire burns your body, and indulges in lust and desire, it is like holding a torch in your hands. When walking against the wind, there will be a hidden danger of burning your own hands.

Fu Bi laughed in silence and said, "Master Zheng, you are also attached to the face."

"After all, she has lived in my house for a while and can play my ten-sided ambush with a pipa. Where can I find this wonderful person? Niang Yi, do you think so?"

"Major Zheng, magistrate Futong, don't say anything, can you listen to me?"

"Okay, let's talk." Zheng Lang said. Finally, he opened his golden mouth, which was so difficult.

"Although Zhang Daliang violates the national law, he is a good person. Master Zheng, you are also a good person. Why can't you forgive him?"

Fu Bi was stunned. Unexpectedly, after persuading for most of the day, he actually waited for this sentence and sighed: "No wonder the god and demon king Ma Xun offered a wonderful jade girl to the Buddha, hoping to make the Buddha give birth to a sacred life and destroy the Buddha's practice. Ma Xun did not give you the jade girl, but gave you a sea guest."

"Brother Fu, have you read the Forty-Two Chapters of the Sutra?" Zheng Lang asked strangely.

"If you want to distinguish Buddha, how can I not take a look? Madam Yi, what's the good thing about Zhang Daliang? He is just a maritime businessman with some money, no knowledge, no status, and nearly thirty years older than you. Why should he be greedy?"

"Brother Fu, it's a mistake. It's great that you are old. Niang Yi's family suffered misfortune and lacks a sense of security. The older Zhang Daliang is, the more he can give Niang Yi's sense of security. He has been born and died many times. Do you and I have such a magnificent life experience? He is smart and capable, with Kong Wu, rich and powerful. For Niang Yi, such a person is more fatal attraction, so you and I can't do it."

Fu Bi rolled his eyes, not wanting to continue to joke with Zheng Lang, and said to Yi Niang: "Madam Yi, Zhang Daliang has helped you secretly, but he is greedy for your beauty, not sincere help. You said he is a good person, why did so many people be killed in the East China Sea?"

It was this murder case that caused Zheng Lang to be unable to close the case. In order to close the case, he had to work hard. It was Zhang Daliang who forced Zheng Lang to this point.

"I know that most of the people he killed were death row prisoners. The prefect Zheng sent someone to chase him hard, but in the end he was not allowed to do so."

"...The person he killed was a death row prisoner, so wouldn't Zhang Daliang have to die hundreds of times before he could endorse the national law?"

"I, I... don't force each other. Prefect Zheng will not let the little girl go. Please arrest the little girl in prison," Yi Niang cried after saying that.

Fu Bi was gone and stood up and said, "Master Zheng, let's go."

Speaking of this, the little woman is still stubborn and has no cure.

Zheng Lang also shook his head and said, "Madam Yi, do you know what kind of flower this is?"

As he said that, he picked up the remaining garlic flower.

Yi Niang sobbed and replied, "It's the Dragon Claw Flower."

"It is the dragon claw flower. It has other names, stone garlic flowers, manzhusha flower, garlic grass, cockroach flower, and a better name. Because it blooms around the autumn equinox, it is the other side of autumn in ancient times, so it is also called the other side of the flower. You have been miserable all your life, and you are not human. The shore is the sea of ​​suffering, go to the other side. And this yellow flower reminds me of a name. The yellow stone garlic flowers have a nice name, called Shi Di Xiao, saying that it looks like a girl who looks back and smiles. You have been in my house for many days and are calm by nature. If it weren't for Zhang Daliang, you have some thoughts and are also a talented and quiet and virtuous lady. If it weren't forbidden by Zhang Daliang, you will be a talented and quiet little lady. If it weren't forbidden by Zhang Daliang, you will be a quiet and virtuous lady. If it weren't forbidden by some bad thoughts, you will also be a sudden smile. Go to the other side. The other side is the other side.

The Tathagata Kingdom has many treasure trees, pure gold trees, silver trees, glazed trees, crystal trees, amber trees, beautiful jade trees, agate trees, the most wonderful treasure trees are gold trees, silver bodies, glazed branches, crystals turn into branches, amber leaves, beautiful jade flowers, agate fruits, glory colors and lights are unbearable to see, when the breeze is emitted, five sounds are sounds, subtle palaces and Shangs, and natural harmony. There is also Bodhi tree, which is four million miles high, and its surroundings are five thousand yojanas, and its branches and leaves are spread out in 200,000 miles. All treasures are naturally combined, and the fruits are filled with glory, and there are red, green, blue and white, Mani treasures, the king of treasures, who think they are garlands, clouds gathering treasure locks, decorations of treasure pillars, gold bells and bells, bells and bells, and precious treasure nets are covered with them, hundreds of millions of colors, reflecting each other, infinite light flames, shining on the infinite."

It is part of the scene of the other country described in the Amitabha Sutra.

But whether Fu Bi or Yi Niang had heard what he meant, Yi Niang's mistake was not a big mistake. Although she was an accomplice of Zhang Daliang, she was exploited by Zheng Lang in turn and did not have much fault. She also confessed some of the news about Zhang Daliang, and she would be punished for her crimes. Her enemies would be punished sooner or later, and she could live a happy life in the future.

It is not the other country, but a happy and free life.

Therefore, when Zheng Lang arranged flowers just now, he deliberately left this stone garlic flower without inserting it. He had expected that Yi Niang would be obsessed with it, and finally used this flower to give another blow.

To achieve this, Zheng Lang can be said to have fulfilled his kindness and righteousness.

Yi Niang still cried.

Fu Bi was even more disappointed and directly pulled Zheng Lang's hand and dragged him out.

"Brother Fu, I have another sentence, if Madam Yi is nostalgic for this sea of ​​suffering, then there is only this place to go, this square veal is your only place to live." He took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Yi Niang's hand, and then left.

Fu Bi walked to the gate of the yard and asked in confusion: "What's the use of that Fangpa?"

A plain square veal with no pattern on it, how could it become a place to live? Fu Bi didn't understand it.

"Tell me to you when I go back."

Taking Fu Bi to his home, Zheng Lang said: "Brother Fu, I have never cared about private salt. I only care about the Dating household. If the Dating household is banned, it will reduce a lot of trouble."

It is still important to care about private salt, which is also an important disadvantage of removing private salt.

He continued: "In addition to this measure, after the Buddha Distinguishing Meeting, we will get more profits by the end of the year, with money and silk at the control of the control, and some political achievements for you and me to squander. I will also move on to tea and salt."

“Tea and salt?”

"I dare not move the tea law in other prefectures. If there is a big storm, however, because of overseas needs, Hangzhou can ask the court to relax the laws and regulations, and the ratio will become a scheduling."

"This method is good," Fu Bi replied after thinking. If there is too much trouble in the country, it will involve the interests of many big and powerful people. The only thing is that Hangzhou's government is not a big problem. Moreover, after the maritime trade is booming, tea is indeed needed. It is impossible to transport tea from Hangzhou to Haizhou and then transport it back from Haizhou: "Where is the salt method?"

"The salt method is also simple. After Dating households seized a batch, the pavilion households became simple, so the next method was easy to implement. Pay the principal of the pavilion household first. Like lychees in Fujian, when you decoct them into salt and pay the salt, pay the entire salt payment, which can further eliminate private salt and increase the output."

Because of the development of fresh preservation technology and transportation industry, lychees are no longer sent to Chang'an like the Tang Dynasty. In addition to the water floating in land and land to enter the capital, they are transported to Khitan in the north, and sailing to Silla in the southeast. In Japan, they are famous brands of the Song Dynasty. In order to make profits, merchants planned to cut them off when they first built flowers and set up coupons. If they were rich later, merchants knew that they did not care about beauty or evil, and they were all red salt (made of salt plum blossoms and mulberry flowers, poured them into lychees and stained them, exposed to dryness, red and sweet and sour color, without insects for three or four years, called red salt flowers). This is an advanced buying relationship. Although the locals produced lychees, they could not eat lychees because of the buying relationship, but they greatly promoted the planting of lychees. After a year of birth, there were countless billions of billions of coins. The records of the lychees are exaggerated, but the real profit brought by lychees in a year will reach millions of coins.

The salt method used by Zheng Lang is of similar nature, but it is not Zheng Lang's creativity.

The Song Dynasty's specialty for salt has many disadvantages, and private salt is serious. For example, Zhang Daliang is punished. What if it is the family's private salt in Shengdu in Yuhang? Or if Li Yong and his brothers have many, what should they do if someone is in Hangzhou? So they implemented the buying and pacifying the big and powerful people, soothe this group of most powerful people and the remaining sub-large and powerful people will be dealt with according to law.

The execution was not ideal, especially Ting, Qian, Zhang, Chao, Xun, Mei, Hui, and Guangbazhou. The law enforcement was loose and private salt was flooded. After a little control, he robbed people of grain and silk, plundered women, fought with police officers and soldiers, and when he killed officials, he became a thief. If Zheng Lang did this in these states like Hangzhou, even officials, including Zheng Lang, dared to kill you.

The second is the two Zhejiang and Huaihe River. The people in this area are rich and have pure and kind-hearted. However, because private salt is very profitable, people in clothing and clothing are also selling salt. Just like the result of Zheng Lang's investigation, countless wealthy families, some of whom are still scholarly families, have been involved one after another.

Later, Fan Xiang implemented eight articles of the Salt Banknote Law and carried out reforms, but this reform was more radical, infringed on the interests of the big and powerful people, and was removed from office. Bao Zheng recommended him to be reinstated again, and a second reform was carried out. This reform attitude became mild, with six articles, taking into account the interests of these big and powerful people. Maybe he would be depressed when he thought about it, but this is a fact. He would not take into account the fact that he would not succeed unless the Song Dynasty was overthrown. This moderate reform was relatively successful, and he was forced by them. Xue Xiang made a second adjustment and made some concessions to the merchants again. However, because of the great military use of troops in the northwest, this law was no longer applicable after Xining. Shen Kuo and Pi Gongbi then implemented the third reform to control the issuance of salt banknotes and expand the commercial law, but it was not successful.

As Zheng Lang said, as long as the court wants to make profits and there is a huge price difference, no reform will succeed. This is the fundamental point.

There were also reforms to officials from Liangzhe. During the Xining period, Lu Bing mentioned Liangzhe Criminals and used two methods to be in charge of salt affairs, namely Zheng Lang's two methods. One was to improve the life of the pavilion households. They were so hungry that they could not eat, and they could do anything that could lose their heads. Because the big pavilion households did not move, the small pavilion households continued to become poor and did not succeed. The other was the purchase system. Although the private salt phenomenon did not improve, the yield increased. Lu Bing also had other measures, from three stoves to ten stoves to one stove, to retort and supervise each other. Then he used severe laws to crack down on those who were not worthy of private salt. Even if the crime was not worthy of the crime, they were all moved to five hundred miles with his wife. However, he did not dare to touch the big ones. Although he used the cool method, he did not do it well.

Fu Bi thought for a while and said, "This method is OK."

The main thing is that there is no interest in it. It is the money taken by the government, not to take it, but to pay it in advance. Although it is bought out, private salt will flow out, but it will be better. As for the radical treatment, Fu Bi has seen through the experience of more than a year and cannot be cured.

"Brother Fu, I just made improvements. I have no delusions about private salt. If it weren't for the trouble, I wouldn't want to cause such a big storm. However, Zhang Daliang's side was different. It was related to the two mines. It was to draw wealth from the pockets of foreigners to me. The nature was completely different. Ma accompanied him with the news, and he was not prepared. It would take at least one year. Han Zhigui was too anxious and some people would inevitably escape from the French Open. Once they were allowed to escape to Japan, they would have serious consequences, so I went to Yi Niang's place."

“Why?”

"Let her inform you."

"I don't understand very much."

"For this matter, I secretly arranged manpower and checked for a long time, but some of my subordinates did not find out. Han Qi was eager to make contributions and immediately started to clear the two islands, so he had to let Xiang Yu go first and let him escape."

"So you're still using it..."

"It's not just a pure use. We give her a sincere advice. We gave her the first chance. With her personality, she will definitely not listen and will also inform Zhang Daliang. As for how she informs her when I sent someone to monitor her, I am looking forward to it. That's it, I gave her a second chance."
To be continued...
