42.12

In the second year, Shen Chuanshi, Surveillance Commissioner of Jiangxi, requested permission to erect a universal ordination platform in Hongzhou to ordain monks on the imperial birthday. The imperial response stated: "Ordaining monks has been temporarily suspended due to state affairs. The imperial decree had already been issued, yet Chuanshi violated the prohibition; his petition should be penalized with a fine of one month's salary to show disapproval."
