Chapter 102: The White Horse's Debate Relatives visit
When the thin man heard his wife say this, he laughed at himself a little: "What kind of relative is this?" He is the descendant of the Pei family, the Xuangong line of the Pei family, and the bloodline is the most pure descendant of the head of the family. And I'm just Wu Pei from the south at the end of the three branches and five rooms, or the middle branch of the room, and I can't go together with eight poles. ”
"Out of breath!" The beautiful woman couldn't help the loss in her heart and mocked her husband.
The thin man shrugged his head with a little cowardice and coughed.
In fact, the Pei family and the world are second only to the five surname families and belong to the world's first-class families.
Although the thin man is a partial branch of Wu Pei from the south, he has also been branded by the Pei family, and has learned a lifetime of literature from the Pei family since he was a child, and he is a highly respected Lizheng in Luoyang.
The beautiful woman's family background is average, although the ancestors have been officials for several generations, but their generation has declined.
A beautiful woman can marry a thin man.
When the marriage was first decided, the glamorous woman also showed off to her relatives, friends and girlfriends how good her husband was.
But after getting married, the glamorous woman found that Li Zheng was just a small official with sesame mung beans, and it was not worth mentioning at all in the prosperous Luoyang City.
Compared with those real high-ranking officials and nobles, freshly dressed and angry people, her husband is just a drop in the ocean.
The glamorous woman yearns for the life of a wealthy family, and is a little tired of the life that can only maintain food and clothing.
Looking at Pei Min, who was not much older than her husband in the distance, but now she was already a hero under one person and above tens of thousands of people, her heart was full of strange loss, thinking of her charming appearance and plump figure, but she was a sick ghost, and she couldn't help but cry out for herself, and said: "What is this, there is no other Pei, as long as the surname Pei is a ancestor." How can you say that people are also clan brothers, when you come to Luoyang, how can there be a reason not to visit......"
The glamorous woman said, her big watery eyes looking directly at Pei Min in the distance.
Pei Min felt a little chill down his back inexplicably, and glanced around.
Surrounded by literati and artists, they were crowded together, and most of their eyes were looking at them.
No matter how sensitive Pei Min's six senses are, they are useless.
"This White Horse Temple is the first temple in China, and its temple originated from the 'temple' of 'Honglu Temple', and has become a general name for Kyushu Temple. Venerable Master Mo Teng and Zhu Falan translated the "Forty-two Chapters Sutra" here, which is also the first Chinese translation of the Buddhist scriptures...... "Zhang Shuo flaunted his erudition and talked about the history of the White Horse Temple.
Pei Min has read a lot of miscellaneous studies, but he personally has some rejection of Buddhism, and he has no in-depth understanding, so he watched Zhang Shuo pretend to be forced on the sidelines.
When it comes to the grandeur of the White Horse Temple.
Master Shidao, the presiding officer of the White Horse Temple, folded his hands and said: "The White Horse Temple was built in the 11th year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and has been more than 680 years so far. In the first year of the early peace of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the allied forces with Yuan Shao, the Taishou of Bohai, as the leader of the alliance, formed a semi-encircled formation against Luoyang. In order to prevent the people from escaping back, he burned all the houses within 200 miles around Luoyang City, and the White Horse Temple was burned to the ground. In the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an, Cao Pi rebuilt Luoyang Palace and rebuilt the White Horse Temple. In the first year of Yong'an in the Western Jin Dynasty, Sima Hao's troops attacked Zhang Fang into Luoyang, burned, killed, captured and plundered, and ...... in the long-term war and chaos In the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the 'Yongxi Rebellion', Luoyang City was once again destroyed. The White Horse Temple has been devastated again......"
This sixty-year-old monk, with a compassionate appearance, said with a bit of solemnity and caution: "The Nirvana rebirth of the White Horse Temple again and again can only be reborn with a better body after experiencing great pain and suffering. The Dharma is boundless, so Bodhi is boundless, and the way to know Nirvana is a wonderful contract. Amitabha Buddha ......"
Hearing this, Pei Min glanced at the old monk with a bit of sneer.
On the surface, this Venerable Buddha has a compassionate face, but in fact it is extremely realistic.
Knowing that Pei Min and Zhang said that they came to visit the White Horse Temple, they came to greet them as soon as possible, accompanied them throughout the whole process, and did the same thing as the tour guides of later generations.
Along the way, they continued to instill the history of the White Horse Temple to Pei Min and Zhang and promote the glory of the White Horse Temple.
His words earlier corresponded to Zhang's pretense.
With the historical knowledge dictated by Zhang Shuo, coupled with the "Nirvana" theory of Buddhism, to promote the White Horse Temple.
Today, the White Horse Temple is respected as the first ancient temple in the world, but the first temple in the world is Shaolin.
Venerable Shi Dao apparently intended to use Pei Min, Zhang Shuo, Su Ting, and the literati and ink writers who accompanied them here today to promote the White Horse Temple, so as to increase the popularity of the incense.
Whether Buddhism is empty or not, Pei Min is not sure, but the old monk in front of him is not an old man who is empty of the four majors.
Just like a certain master in later generations, he turned faith into a business.
Seeing that the surrounding people were immersed in the glorious history of the White Horse Temple, Pei Min knew that Master Shidao's calculation had succeeded.
Taking advantage of the three of them, Master Shi Dao made his wishful thinking.
Pei Min thought of a book he had read and knew that it was time for him to perform.
A scheming old monk has paid attention to himself, how can there be any reason not to fight back.
Besides, he is also a Wenzong, and his Shilin status is even higher than Zhang Shuo, how can he be pretended to be from beginning to end?
Pei Min then said: "In terms of Buddhism, the temple is expensive and no longer majestic. This White Horse Temple is magnificent, but in fact, it has a sense of gold and jade, and it is ruined. ”
Zhang was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by what Gong Pei said?" ”
Master Shi Dao was a little stunned, but he couldn't help but be anxious in his heart, and he was unmoved on the surface, and said, "Why did Master Pei say this...... The four monks are empty, and they don't care about anything outside their bodies. It doesn't matter how the temple is, there is a Buddha in the heart, and there are Buddhas everywhere. ”
Pei Min smiled slightly and said, "The abbot should know that there are true beliefs and false beliefs, which are the so-called sincerity and insincerity. Our current White Horse Temple is a temple that was expanded in the post-martial period, and the person in charge is Xue Huaiyi. Xue Huaiyi is a well-known person, formerly known as Feng Xiaobao, who was originally a small merchant who made a living by selling wild medicine in the city well of Luoyang. How can there be any real talent, he is the White Horse Temple presided over the preservation of the pure is the move of the Empress Wu to cover people's eyes, repair and expand the White Horse Temple is also for his own enjoyment, how sincere it is, self-evident. ”
"Before that, the Northern Dynasty believed in Buddhism, and many kings did not even want to be emperors, but devoted themselves to Buddha. It can be seen that its sincerity, for some reason, the entire White Horse Temple at that time had a regular layout, a simple style, and strictly followed the customs of Buddhism. The entrance is a door and three holes, symbolizing Buddhism's 'empty door', 'no phase gate', 'no door' is also the so-called 'three liberation gates', and the five major halls are the Tianwang Palace, the Great Buddha Palace, the Daxiong Palace, the Receiving Hall and the Pilu Hall from south to north. Among them, the Tianwang Hall is a single-eaves rest mountain type, corresponding to the Maitreya Buddha who can accommodate the world's affairs. The Daxiong Hall is a hanging mountain type, enshrined in the corresponding Shakya, Amitabha, and the Medicine Master 'Three Buddhas', and the Pilu Pavilion is a heavy eaves rest mountain type, located on the cool platform, and is dedicated to the two Bodhisattvas of Pilu Buddha and Manjushri and Puxian......"
"Every Buddha in every hall is extremely exquisite, and it also echoes the lofty truth that the four major Buddhas are empty, and everything is something outside the body......"
Pei Min gushed endlessly, looking at the luxurious and wealthy White Horse Temple now, but he saw the scene and object of the White Horse Temple a hundred years ago reappearing in his mouth.
Zhang Shuo and Su Ying looked at each other when they heard this, and the Luoyang gentry who accompanied them also stared at each other one by one.
As for Master Shidao, they all listened to it, and they didn't know whether what Pei Min said was right or not. More than 100 years ago, he was not even born.
But he didn't dare to refute Pei Min's words, because he was a generation of Wenzong and held a certain right to speak in Shilin.
Su Ying has 30 volumes of anthologies, and has also participated in the revision of "Kaiyuan Houge", "Kaiyuan Houling", and "Kaiyuan Houshi", and his status in the literary world is higher than Zhang Shuoyu, and it is not inferior to Pei Min. He is better in quantity, and Pei Min is better in quality. At this moment, listening to Pei Min say that the head of the White Horse Temple hundreds of years ago is the Tao, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but sigh: "Why did Pei Gong say it as if he saw it with his own eyes?" ”
Pei Min said: "It is from a book of "Luoyang Jialanji", it is a history and character story book that integrates history, geography, Buddhism, and literature when Sima Yang Xuanzhi of the Yuan and Wei Dynasty Fujun revisited Luoyang, remembering the prosperity of Buddhist temples in the suburbs of the city before the catastrophe in the past, and overlooking historical changes. The writing is concise and delicate, the narrative is complex but not chaotic, and the prose is scattered, which is quite distinctive. The book not only records in detail the original appearance of the White Horse Temple, but also describes in detail the architectural ...... of the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty"
"There is such a strange book?" Zhang Shuo was also surprised, "I have read thousands of books in vain, but I have never heard of this book." ”
Pei Min is not surprised, he has been in this era for many years, has studied many classic ancient books, and has also discovered a little.
For the records of the Northern and Southern Dynasties a hundred years ago, the world attaches great importance to the South and ignores the North, taking the Southern Dynasties as the correct one, and the Northern Dynasties selectively ignoring them.
The strange book "Luoyang Jialan" has become a dusty pearl and is not known to the world.
When Pei Min was shopping for books, he bought it by chance, and he liked it very much, and after reading it twice, he had a deep impression of the general content of the book, and said with a smile: "Min also bought it by chance, and the text is wonderful." If you are interested, you can read it. ”
As a Wenzong, in addition to making articles, recommending classic books to the world is also one of the tasks.
The book "Luoyang Jialanji" is also the first time that Pei Min has fulfilled the responsibility of recommending Wenzong.
Whether it is Zhang Shuo, Su Ying and other literary sects, or the surrounding writers, and even the nearby Shilin people, they have all made up their minds.
After today, you must carefully read "Luoyang Jialan".
A book of thaumaturgy that would only be understood by the world in the twentieth century became popular throughout Shilin because of Pei Min's words.
This is also where the influence of Wenzong lies.
In Shilin's heart, Wenzong's status is extremely lofty.
Pei Min looked at the luxurious White Horse Temple with a somewhat inexplicable smile on his face.
Compared with the four empty thoughts of the Tianzhu monks, he felt that their Confucian culture was more worth learning.
Pei Min said reverently: "Therefore, the current White Horse Temple is outside of gold and jade, and it is ruined. is too luxurious, but loses the four empty ...... that a monk should have Venerable Buddha, do you think I am justified in this? ”
Master Shi Dao realized the terrible nature of the scholar, and he was speechless, and after a while, he said, "Amitabha! The things of the world are like clouds of smoke in the past, whether it is gold and jade, or ruined, it is the same as in my eyes. ”
Pei Min said: "Even if it is ordinary, why should it be repaired so magnificently?" Wouldn't it be better to use incense money to help the people and repair roads, and it is more in line with the Buddhist concept of universalizing all sentient beings. ”
"Amitabha!"
Venerable Buddha was speechless.
Zhang Shuo and Su Ying smiled at each other, and they also faintly felt the intentions of Master Shidao, but they didn't want to sweep away the interest in playing, so they ignored it.
But I didn't want Pei Min to force Master Shi Dao to have nothing to say in just a few words, and I was even more curious about the book "Luoyang Jialan", and they all had a hunch that "Luoyang Jialan" was not as simple as the literal quotient.
They had a good idea.
Garan comes from Sanskrit and is also transliterated as "Sangha Rama", which refers to the protector of the temple. It is also for this reason that "Luoyang Jialanji" has always been considered to be an ancient Buddhist historical book, but in fact, the content of it is to reveal the scourge of the ruler's indulgence in Buddhist superstition, in order to remember the past scenes of Luoyang, preserve the historical facts, and express the sadness of the collapse of the country and the collapse of Kyoto.
It is a book with the skin of Buddhist history books, but the content is anti-Buddha.
Pei Min was already brilliant, and this confident speech brainwashed a group of people around him, who looked at him with admiration, especially the beautiful woman, as if she was going to eat Pei Min in one bite.
After visiting the White Horse Temple, Zhang Shuo, Su Ying, Pei Min and his party went to Jingu Garden to play.
I didn't return until sunset, and I also agreed to travel again on the next day off.
returned to the courtyard that Li Longji prepared for him.
Feng Chan's itinerary, he has already arranged it.
Just waiting for the day of the Zen sealing.
Pei Min also fell into a situation of idleness for a while, and in Chang'an, he could still go to Qingyulou to watch a play, talk to Gongsun You, or go to the pear garden to chat with Xie Aman or something.
Luoyang has no relatives, so he can only honestly take it, read books or think about how to deal with Gongsun Xi's problem.
Since that day, Gongsun Xi has obviously avoided him.
Even Gongsun You noticed that Gongsun Xi was abnormal, and Pei Min couldn't say it clearly, it really hurt, and he turned through an essay absentmindedly.
Suddenly, he heard a report from someone who said that his distant relatives had asked to see him.
Pei Min was stunned, he really didn't remember any distant relatives in Luoyang.
"Could it be someone from the Pei family? Or is something wrong with the Pei family? ”
Pei Min said to himself, anyway, it's boring anyway, it's better to go gradually: "Invite them to the living room!" ”
After tidying up his clothes a little, Pei Min walked to the living room.
There were two people sitting in the living room, a man and a woman, and when they saw Pei Min coming, they hurriedly greeted them.
"Li Zhengnan came to Wu Pei, Pei Guan has seen Guogong......" Pei Guan was very restrained, and his every move was stiff.
The woman was very generous, and said softly: "The concubine is Pei Yang's family, and I have seen the uncle of the Pei family......"
She screamed very intimately, and her voice was very coquettish.
made Pei Min couldn't help but beat a spirit.
