Yue-tsun was filled with extreme astonishment; and past events then began to dawn upon him.
the fact is that this Retainer had been at one time a young priest in the Hu Lu temple; but as, after its destruction by fire, he had no place to rest his frame, he remembered how light and easy was, after all, this kind of occupation, and being unable to reconcile himself to the solitude and quiet of a temple, he accordingly availed himself of his years, which were as yet few, to let his hair grow, and become a retainer.
Yue-tsun had had no idea that it was he. Hastily taking his hand in his, he smilingly observed, You are, indeed, an old acquaintance! and then pressed him to take a seat, so as to have a chat with more ease, but the Retainer would not presume to sit down.
Friendships, Yue-tsun remarked, putting on a smiling expression, contracted in poor circumstances should not be forgotten! This is a private room; so that if you sat down, what would it matter?
the Retainer thereupon craved permission to take a seat, and sat down gingerly, all awry.
Why did you, a short while back, Yue-tsun inquired, not allow me to issue the warrants?
Your illustrious office, replied the Retainer, has brought your worship here, and is it likely you have not transcribed some philactery of your post in this province!
