Chapter 137

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching, the market in Daxiangguo Temple is getting more and more lively even though the clouds are thick. It can be described as a sea of ​​people in the early morning, but the temple is still quiet.When Li Buqi arrived at the Daxiangguo Temple, he walked into the temple and wandered around.

It was still early, and there were not many people offering incense, so Li Buqi wandered comfortably among the temples and ancient trees, looking for the scenery he could use.

No way, Ding Du revealed to him that someone has been thinking about how to trip him up in the next year's exam and at the same time give him a trick.That is, if Li Buqi can publicize his literary name during this year, making people think that it is wrong for Li Buqi to fail the Jinshi examination, then those people will be more scrupulous when they start.

Li Buqi reckons that he can write articles at least above the middle level, and his poems can be regarded as handy-this is not because Li Buqi's level is so high, but that the general level of literati in this era is actually not high.Li Buqi also rushed over on the single-plank bridge of the college entrance examination before the enrollment expansion. How many people can take part in the imperial examination in each session of the Song Dynasty?I'm afraid it can't keep up with more than half of the number of people who take the college entrance examination in Henan every year?
This level is more than enough than the top, and it is impossible to meet the requirements of Dingdu.However, it is not groundless for Ding Du to give Li Buqi this idea, because "Bamboo Stone" and "Ode to Red Plum" written by Li Buqi are now widely praised. As long as Li Buqi writes a few more songs of this level Poetry and prose, once again the famous scholars, and then the emperor's cover, who dares to start casually and not give up on the exam?

It is not difficult for Li Buqi to write a few more high-level poems and essays, so continue to copy them.However, the poems I copied are not my own after all, and there are always differences in style. If they are written plainly, it will make people suspicious.But once it is touching the scene, it will be easy to explain, so Li Buqi always finds an introduction when he wants to copy poems.

The fact that Li Buqi wandered around the temple soon alarmed Master Wuzhi.Now Master Wuzhi has made great contributions to adding a scenic spot to Xiangguo Temple, so now he is also promoted and lives a prosperous life.Now the only thing he is often concerned about is getting Li Buqi and the young lady of the Zhao family to tie the knot, so that the reputation of "Marriage Palace" can be completely fulfilled.Therefore, he is actually very concerned about the news of Li Buqi. When he heard that Li Buqi was wandering in the temple, he followed the little novice and hurried over, and saw Li Buqi watching the big belly Maitreya Buddha outside a large hall. of the statue.

"Ah, the lift is here?"

Li Buqi looked back and saw Wuzhi quickly turned around and saluted: "Ah, hello, master."

Wuzhi chuckled: "Tiju has been paying attention to Maitreya Bodhisattva just now, but he was inspired by Bodhisattva?"

"For a dull person like me, I didn't notice the inspiration of the Bodhisattva, but I suddenly came up with a couplet just now."

The ignorant face immediately turned into a rotten eggplant - Li Buqi's poems are widely sung, and it is entirely possible to add a well-known couplet to Xiangguo Temple.He hurriedly said: "It must be good to make couplets, why don't you just write them and see?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Buqi to agree, he told the little novice: "Go and get a pen and paper."

Daxiangguo Temple will make money, and there are many halls where people who ask for a lottery will unravel the lottery, and there are paper and pens there.The little novice ran away, and in a short while brought two pieces of paper that had been cut and a pen, ink and inkstone, followed by a group of monks and pilgrims who heard that Li Buqi was going to write couplets and came to see the excitement.

Li Buqi pretended to be embarrassing: "Oh, master. Aren't so many people asking me to make a fool of myself?"

Li Buqi is ignorant but refuses to let him go: "It's a good idea to mention it. The pair of 'Long Long Long Long Long Long Long Long Long Long' is still amazing. How can it be said to be ugly? What about it? Don’t be self-effacing, just write it quickly so that I can feast my eyes on it.”

The pilgrims who followed also echoed: "Let's write quickly."

After some humility, Li Buqi finally picked up a pen and wrote "a big belly can tolerate things that are hard to tolerate in the world; a smile is always open, laughing at the ridiculous people in the world".

After Li Buqi finished writing, he immediately burst into applause.Wuzhi even proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Titing this couplet is writing Maitreya Bodhisattva's magnanimity and compassion. It is really a rare masterpiece. Hang it up."

He smiled so fat that he couldn't even see his eyes, but he asked Li Buqi to write it again and immediately told the little novice monk: "Go and invite a carver to carve this couplet and hang it on the door. It can also alert the world." .”

Li Buqi hurriedly said: "I've made a fool of myself, I've made a fool of myself..."

At this time, a guard squeezed into the crowd, whispered in Li Buqi's ear, "Officer, I just saw a young lady from the Zhao family come to offer incense."

Li Buqi made a surprised look, and said to Wuzhi: "Master, I have something to do, so I'm leaving."

A few days ago, Wuzhi heard that Li Buqi brought this woman disguised as a man out of a couple, and he was very upset, for fear of ruining the reputation of the "Marriage Palace", he wanted to ask Li Buqi how he returned As for the matter, how can I let Li go without giving up.Seeing Li Buqi walking forward, he hurriedly followed: "Li Tiju, it's still early, why don't you sit in the Zen room for a while..."

How could Li Buqi care about his ignorance, he walked forward quickly while perfunctory.When I came to the front hall, I saw Zhao Min kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva from the door.No need to look at people, the seal skin cloak she wears is the only one in Song Dynasty now, and she can't go wrong.

Li Buqi chuckled, raised his legs and walked into the hall, directly took a bunch of incense from Zhike monk, lit it, went to Zhao Min and knelt down.Zhao Min was praying to the Buddha to keep her parents safe, when suddenly Myolie's soft cry came from behind her. She turned her head and saw a man kneeling down beside her, and she almost cried out in shock.Fortunately, the seal skin cloak on Li Buqi was so special, and then a black face turned around and smiled at her: "Is this cloak okay?"

Zhao Min originally wanted to find a secluded place to talk to Li Buqi, but he didn't expect Li Buqi to talk to him in public, so he blushed and said in a panic, "What are you... "

Li Buqi said first: "Yesterday you wrote to thank me for giving you the cloak. This morning I thought about visiting the place where we met for the first time. Who knows that you also came to offer incense. Doesn't this mean that you have a good understanding?"

He said this in a loud voice, which could be heard by the Zhike monk and Wuzhi who followed him.Zhao Min was also very thoughtful, and immediately understood his intentions, and couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.Confucianism has not yet emerged in the Song Dynasty, and women still have a little freedom, but it is also a gossip plot that will cause bad reputation when a lady is dating a lover, so Li Buqi will protect him from this.

Although I was grateful to Li Buqi in my heart, I didn't dare to say much in front of the public, and just continued to worship the Bodhisattva.But I heard Li Buqi rubbing the incense and praying: "Bodhisattva, please accept a stick of incense from Li Buqi. Since you sent the marriage to me, you should be a good person to the end, and bless the marriage. Don't tease me." Otherwise, don’t blame me for dismantling your golden body if you annoy me.”

Zhao Min was so shocked that he even forgot how many times he prayed, his ignorance was petrified—this guy is so courageous, he dared to threaten the gods and Buddhas, what kind of person is this?
Seeing that Li Buqi had already stood up, he hurriedly said, "The Bodhisattva will bless Tiju's marriage. Come, Tiju is here to serve tea in the meditation room."
