The scene of welcoming the Buddha's bones is getting bigger and bigger, three days later, the emperor issued an edict and said, the great sage is really here, Chang'an is auspicious, the city can be happy for a day, and the monks set off fireworks, I personally came to the Qinzheng Building of Xingqing Palace, and the people watched together.

At this time, countless wealthy people in Chang'an City, in addition to giving a large amount of money to worship the Buddha's bones into the Changsheng Treasury, also set up colorful buildings and barrier sheds along the streets of various streets, and the great monks of the city held an uncovered meeting in it, encouraging the people to donate money to do good karma and be loyal to the royal family of the imperial court - that night, countless fireworks rose in the mountains and plateaus around the eastern city of Chang'an City-Gao Yue ordered in advance to urgently make a batch of fireworks from Xingyuan and Fengxiang to Chang'an City.

For a time, the night of Chang'an was burned brightly by sparks, reproducing the grand scene of "thousands of lights and trees, and seven branches of flowers".

Gao Yue is standing on the building of Xuanpingfang's own house, and his wife and children enjoy such a beautiful scenery together, because the emperor issued an edict requiring the families of all parties to pay homage to the Buddha's bones, so Yun Shao, Zhihui and Yun He, and Gao Yue's children, all gathered in Chang'an City.

But in this situation, there is a sad thing.

Wu Cailuan also came, climbed the building of the mansion, and the treasure she was holding was half-open with her big tired eyes, quietly in the arms of the refiner, and the colors of the fireworks continued to bloom, reflecting in the pupils of the treasure.

The treasure was too old, and it had been with the mistress and the Cailuan refiner for the past twelve or thirteen years.

As if predicting that he would die, it rarely eats and drinks since the beginning of spring this year, and interacts less and less with the housewife, aunt and even Jing'er, always loves to stay in a secluded corner, and turns its head in the direction of Chang'an, which is half a day.

"Take it back to Chang'an, in its impression, its hometown is there." Yun Shao touched the head of the treasure who didn't say a word, sighed and said.

The sound of fireworks, mixed with solemn and pleasant Sanskrit sounds, kept coming from the night sky, and the demeanor of the treasure was also dyed with layers of solemnity, and finally slowly closed his eyes.

Yun Shao, Yun He, Zhi Hui, Cai Luan and Jing'er all shed tears.

Gao Yue was also very sad, and his hand touched the top of the deceased Baobao's head:

"Go well, in the bamboo forest in front of Longhuani Temple, continue to flutter your butterflies happily and carefree......"

In Gao Yue's memory, time has fixed the treasure at that moment: the towering green bamboo in front of the temple, the turquoise pond water, the small cocoon running and jumping chasing the butterfly, ran to his feet, and then led out a slightly chubby girl tied with concentric knots, eyebrows, eyes and sideburns are all beautiful, with shyness, delicate pink and white crisp holding a fan, looking at herself with a smile.

When he and the girl looked at each other stupidly, the little cocoon saw a butterfly with more brilliant wings, and happily raised the tip of her black nose, and threw them down, chasing the butterfly until it disappeared into the grass of early summer......

"Bao Bao is dead, it turns out that in this world, my dear object will also grow old and die." That night, Gao Yue began to think about such a thing for the first time.

In front of the Qinzheng Building of Xingqing Palace, the emperor came here in person to accept the cheers of all the people.

Yiyang put himself and Wang Shiping's "son" on the knee of the grandfather, made the emperor laugh, hugged Xiao Chengyue, looked at his eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose, after looking at it for a while, he felt more and more familiar, and he couldn't help but be happy again, but also a little sad.

Because the emperor saw that Lingxu was wearing a feather coat and holding a whisk, standing in front of the window of the Qinzheng Building, looking quietly towards the south of the city through the fireworks all over the city, without saying a word.

The next day, Daming Palace began to hold a grand ceremony to welcome the Buddha's bones, the emperor has made the palace workshops make a lot of floating slaughter, treasure tents, incense, banner flowers, and covers, all decorated with gold and jade, and with the Shenwei forbidden army honor guard to welcome, the team from the Ximing Temple to the Daming Palace, meandering, stretching for several miles, the sound of preaching boiling, to the Buddha bones to the palace gate, the emperor himself in the earth-shaking long live cheers, down the Danfeng Tower, then bow to the Buddha bones, when the Buddha bones into the forbidden, the inner dojo is open again without covering the assembly, the monks gathered, officials, bachelors, All the foreign guests also came to attend the lecture.

In the inner dojo, in front of the palace people and ministers, the emperor opened the sevenfold treasure letter containing the Buddha's bones, and then everyone saw that the so-called "Great Sage True Body" was a bone-like object about two inches long, white and crystalline, with a square hole inside, which could just be stuffed into a person's fingertips, not so much like a thumb bone, but more like a ring.

After seeing the Great Sage Zhen, at the Uncovered Conference, Cui Ning took the lead in offering a pure gold Buddha statue worth 10,000 yuan to the emperor as a reverence for the Buddha's bones.

Cui Ning is a good role model, and hundreds of officials in the court understand the gods and worship the Buddha's bones in turn.

This time, even Lu Zhen, who has always been honest, also sold his family's land property in advance, and gathered 500 yuan to offer, and Lu Zhen still had 3,000 acres of land before, because Songshan Fengle Temple prayed for his deceased mother, and also donated it.

Duan Xiushi, Yan Zhenqing, Li Sheng, Ma Sui, Liu Yan and other idle ministers, although they did not express their opinions on the bones of welcoming the Buddha, they also knew in their hearts that this was actually the emperor using the bones of the Buddha to unify the hearts and minds of the people in the world, and by the way, they also made their own contributions.

And the ministers who believe in Buddhism must be more generous, and thousands or even tens of thousands are not a problem.

Cui Yunshao, as the wife of the founding duke of Ji County, donated ornaments and clothes worth 5,000 yuan, and other women also followed suit.

The true body of the great sage, after being enshrined in the Daming Palace for three days, the emperor placed it in the Chonghua Courtyard of Anguo Temple in the capital, and placed it for another ten days, continuing to accept donations from all over the world.

The fanatical worship of Buddha bones in Chang'an City continued unabated, and even caused a few bloody chaos:

A soldier of the Shenwei Army, after seeing the Buddha's bones, felt that the donation of clothes and money could no longer express his reverence, so he actually cut off his arm with a knife and sent the broken arm to the Buddha's bones;

When a monk from Youfang paid homage, he put wormwood on his head and lit a fire, screaming in pain, and wanted to extinguish the fire above his head, but he was stopped by several scoundrels and evil young men, and scolded him for being insincere, so the monk's head was finally burned to half burned, lying on the side of the road in Anguo Temple and dying, and finally was carried away, not knowing whether he was alive or dead;

There are also people blowing, the Buddha bones appear in Chang'an City, and Guanyin descends on Zhongnan Mountain, the soldiers and the masses who don't know the truth run to see, and they are a Shenwei soldier, and they see the lantern-like light in the night, so they shout that it is the Buddha light of Guanyin, and run over to pay homage, and then scream miserably - was taken away and eaten by the tiger in Zhongnan Mountain, the lantern is not the Buddha's light at all, it is the tiger's eyes.

In the end, the emperor ordered the city inspector to maintain order in the Chonghua Academy, and this absurdity was reduced a lot.

When the Buddha's bones were finally reloaded into the sevenfold treasure letter, escorted by a large number of lieutenants and forbidden soldiers, and returned to Famen Temple, the pious old people and ladies of Chang'an wept and knelt on both sides of the road, saying that it would take thirty years to witness the true body of the great sage, and they would not know when they would see it again next time, so they donated a large number of treasures and goods along the way.
