Chapter Seventy-Four: Miss Dayi's Expression on Zen

If it lasted for a small half a month, on the eighth day of the first month of September, the capital was restored to the earthquake as before, and there was a new house, and the mud had not yet dried out, so it collapsed instantly, and Mulan Pavilion was nothing serious.

Rong Yue pawned the box of jewels and jade jewelry, mortgaged a dowry village, bought grain, salt, vegetables, tents and oil lamps and other things, regardless of the number of people, except for the displaced victims, they all gave porridge to treat the sick, and gave them a temporary place to live.

"Gege's Zhuangzi is near the water in front of the mountain and back to the mountain, the feng shui is excellent, but now in the disaster, I can't sell it for a price, I asked a few in a row, and the price given is not ideal, and it is not even as good as the previous mortgage of the mountain villa." Cheng Pei explained, "If you slow down, you can double the price." ”

Rong Yue put the lake pen back on the blue and white porcelain mountain pen, pondered for a long time, and said: "This Zhuangzi is the rarest of my mother's life, and I don't want to get rid of it until I have to." Since there is still a balance of the money pawned before, it is enough to inquire about these things in advance. ”

Cheng Pei responded, and carefully said what Han Qiwen wanted to convey: "Han Gongzi said, at first, our soup porridge was occupied by our own silk shop, and later, due to the large number of victims, we put the left and right shops over, and there was an extra expense in vain, and the place was cramped, and thousands of people ate and drank Lazar in one place, and it was not good if something happened." If you send the tents and rain cloths to the villages on the outskirts of Beijing, there is already the yamen of the Disaster Resettlement Bureau of the imperial court, but the soup soup and medicine are not as generous as ours. ”

Rong Yue nodded and said, "This Han Gongzi has seen it. ”

When He Xuan heard this, her lips curled slightly, and she also praised Han Qiwen in her heart that although he read the book of sages, he was not pedantic at all. Her eyes flowed, looking out through the half-open carved rhombic bed, and saw a man hurrying over, the smile on the corner of her lips froze, and she said to Rongyue: "Gege, uncle is here." ”

Rong Yue was looking up, only to see Fa Luo coming in three steps and two steps, and as soon as he entered the door, he said, "Sixth sister, Mama Su from the palace is here." ”

Rong Yue didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly sorted out her makeup, and went to the flower hall in front of her to say goodbye.

Mama Su was still the same as before, her black eyes were shrewd and capable, and when she saw that Rong Yue was about to salute, she hurriedly stepped forward and helped her arm to pick it up, looked at it for a while, and said, "The girl is thin." ”

"Thank you for your care," Rong Yue raised her hand and stroked her sideburns, and asked, "How is the old lady of the Empress Dowager?" ”

"Master Wan'an," Mama Su took her hand and said: "It's still the epicenter at the moment, the slave is a long story short, it was the Empress Dowager who sent the slave to ask Gege to go to the West Mountain, this earthquake is not stubborn." ”

Seeing that Rong Yue seemed to be about to resign, Su Mo'er added: "The Empress Dowager knows about your dowry and porridge, and her old man has calculated that you are reluctant to give up the porridge shed, and she has discussed with the emperor, and since the 15th, the imperial court will send people from the household department to take over all the porridge sheds of the Niu Colu family." You pawned those jewelry, and the Empress Dowager also ordered someone not to sell them, and when the situation improved, her old man redeemed them for you one by one. ”

When Rong Yue heard this, tears welled up in her eyes, and she hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you for the Empress Dowager, the emperor's grace." ”

Su Mo'er helped her up and said with a smile: "Girl, please clean up, the sedan chair is waiting outside, all the wear is complete, you only need to bring some important things." After that, he told as if jokingly, "The Empress Dowager can command, if you refuse again, the minions will also tie people up." ”

Speaking of this, Rong Yue didn't dare to shirk anymore, leaving Qinglian and Ning Lan to take care of them in the mansion, and took He Xuan and Chun Zao to pack a cage and go to Xishan with Su Mo'er.

Xishan is located in the west of Beijing, is the remaining vein of Taihang Mountain, the temple chess cloth, the cave is deep, quite a bit of Jiangnan sentiment, the ancients wrote poems and praised: in the ten miles of green mountains and paintings, double flying and hundreds of birds are like Jiangnan.

It is quiet and secluded, quiet and harmonious, which is completely different from the noisy and miserable image in Beijing.

Rong Yue could hear the birdsong outside the car curtain, and couldn't help but lift the curtain to look out, only to see the dense jungle on both sides of the road, the mountains and the sea of clouds, faintly heard the sound of bells and chimes in the surrounding temples, and almost forgot the victims who were moaning along the way.

Walking in a similar shape with the character of the character, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager and several virtuous concubines stayed in the Lingguang Monastery, Yi Concubine and Tong Guifei settled in the nearby Maitreya Courtyard, and some princesses and princesses lived in the westernmost Longquan Nunnery.

Because they are all concubines and nobles, there are pro-soldiers stationed in a radius of ten miles around, and the guards in the car show their waist cards and let them go after inspection.

Rong Yue got out of the carriage, and followed Su Mo'er through the two vermilion lacquer mountain gates, and saw a treasure-topped Buddha hall in front of her, with eight vermilion lacquer fans wide open, and faintly Buddha incense came.

Rong Yue bowed slightly to Su Mo'er, lightly moved the lotus step across the vermilion lacquer threshold, and saw Xiaozhuang kneeling on the goose-yellow lotus futon, praying sincerely towards a statue of Guanyin with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes.

On the left side of the main hall sit two old nuns in yellow clothes, one knocks on the wooden fish, and the other holds a rosary and recites the Sanskrit scriptures.

Rong Yue didn't dare to disturb, and knelt down quietly on the worship mat in the back row of Xiaozhuang, clasped her hands together, and prayed concentratingly.

The sound of chanting recited reverberates people's hearts and makes people detached and quiet.

After a passage of "Ranga Sutra", Xiaozhuang slowly opened his eyes and was about to get up.

Rong Yue hurriedly stepped forward to help her and accompanied her to the courtyard for a walk.

The courtyard is paved with blue bricks, the ancient trees are towering to the sky, there is a hidden birdsong coming, a gust of breeze blows, and its quiet interest is better than the paradise.

Xiaozhuang walked very slowly, and spoke gently and calmly: "Good boy, I know everything, you are kind-hearted, and you live half of the people in the city with red makeup for ten miles, which is a supreme merit." ”

When Fakha had an accident, when Rong Yue was at a loss, he also copied the Zen sutras every day in order to bring good fortune, and also knew some scriptures, and said: "In the Vajra Prajnaparamita Sutra, it is said that the Buddha gave a lecture to the Garden of Solitude and the Great Bhikshuni in the Sawei Kingdom Gishu and said that if a good man or a good woman counts the three thousand worlds of the Ganges sand with the Seven Treasures Manchuer, and uses charity, they will be blessed a lot. However, if one receives four verses in the sutra and says them for others, then this merit is better than the previous merit. Yue'er worships the Buddha because of the ears and eyes of the ancestors, and it can be seen that this is the merit of the ancestors. ”

Those who practice Buddhism are not blessed with good fortune, Xiaozhuang listened to her talk about the "Diamond Sutra" so familiar, and said: "The "Diamond Sutra" emphasizes an empty word, no self, no one, no sentient beings, no longevity, no reality and no emptiness, no appearance, if you do not move, you can attain the three bodhisattvas of Anuttara. It's really hard for anyone to have such a thorough understanding. ”

Rong Yue continued: "What the ancestor said is very true, the Buddha's words are cloudy, there is really no Anuttara Sambodhi, even if the Buddha says all the Dharma, it is illegal, but all the Dharma is pseudonymous. It is how empty it is, how much it is understood, and how it is to be able to attain supreme enlightenment. ”

Xiaozhuang's eyelids jumped, and then he smiled: "A person like me, who has half a body in the ground, studies the Dharma, and seeks liberation. (To be continued.) )
