Chapter 253: Sheng Yong sells words
Di Linaza took the bracelet in her hand, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, she looked at it for a while, and said coquettishly to Zhu Ao with pleading eyes: "Master, the concubine wants it." ”
It's really great if a beautiful woman can be coquettish, especially the beautiful woman she likes, it really makes people's steely hearts turn into finger wrapping softness, Zhu Ao smiled very happily: "Boss, wrap this bracelet." "I paid without bargaining at the moment, and the feeling of being a local tyrant is cool.
Subsequently, Zhu Ao took Di Linaza to visit a lot of stores, and bought some jewelry, rouge gouache and other things, Di Linaza also took a fancy to some fabrics, because this kind of thing is really inconvenient to carry, Zhu Ao asked the boss to deliver it to the door.
"Master, the concubine heard that the Jiming Temple in Jinling City is very effective, and the concubine wants to go there to pray for the lord." Di Linaza had enough of the store, took Zhu Ao's arm, and suddenly said this request. Jiming Temple is known as the head of the four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasty, and Di Linazha, who is familiar with the culture of the Central Plains, is naturally very clear, but he has long been fascinated by that place. When I came to Jinling this time, I asked Zhu Ao to take her over for a visit.
Zhu Ao is also involved in Buddhism, because his mother believes in Buddhism, and later generations of Zhu Ao also checked the teachings of Buddhism on the website, in his opinion, Buddhism has thousands of scriptures, in fact, it is said over and over again that there is a truth - all laws are empty, cause and effect are not empty.
Although Buddhism also talks about fate, it believes that people's fate is not immutable, and anyone can change their destiny by doing good deeds and planting good causes. The so-called "even after a hundred calamities, the karma you do will not die, and when karma meets, the retribution will be repaid." "When the good or bad things you do accumulate to a certain extent and form a certain amount of karma, the trajectory of your destiny will change because of it.
The true meaning of Buddhism is actually "do not do all evil, and do all good", and it does not mean that you have to eat and fast in the temple and recite the Buddha.
After understanding the true meaning of Buddhism, in fact, it is the same at home and as a monk, and if you do more good deeds at home, you will enjoy good fortune, and if you do more injustice in the temple, then it is useless to copy the scriptures.
Therefore, Zhu Ao has always had an objective attitude towards the temple and this kind of place, neither disrespectful nor blind worship, after all, the temple is a symbol of Buddhism, monks and nuns are also a profession, and other professions are equal, and disrespect to others should not be.
And blindly worshipping the temple, like the behavior of queuing up in front of the temple on the first day of the Lunar New Year, as said on the Internet, is also undesirable, it is completely unnecessary.
As long as you are dedicated to goodness and sow good causes, you will naturally have good rewards and good results.
However, if her woman wants to go, Zhu Ao will not Buddha her intentions, no matter how you say that Jiming Temple is also a historical landscape, it doesn't hurt to visit.
"Let's go. Let's go to Jiming Temple. Zhu Ao grabbed Di Linazha's hand, interlocked his fingers, and then walked towards Jiming Temple.
Jiming Temple was built in the Western Jin Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to rebuild it again in the 20th year of Hongwu, since it is called the first temple in the south of the Yangtze River, it is enough to see its incense flourishing.
Zhu Ao and Di Lina Zha interlocked their fingers and walked into this famous temple, and the little novice at the door of the temple saw that these two people were dressed extraordinarily, and immediately walked forward to greet them: "The two donors, please, dare to ask whether to offer incense or ask for a lot?" ”
Zhu Ao glanced at Di Linaza and didn't speak, Di Linaza knew that Zhu Ao was letting her make her own decisions, so she didn't think about it immediately, and directly said what was in her heart: "Shangxiang." ”
After all, Xiao Shami's entry was late, and his concentration was insufficient, and when he saw Di Linazha, a stunning beauty like a fairy, he was still unconsciously stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he hurriedly folded his hands and bowed: "Amitabha, please come inside the two donors." ”
When Zhu Ao and Di Lina saw him, they both felt funny inside, glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Please also ask the little master to lead the way in front." ”
"Donor, please." Xiao Shami gave another salute, then turned around and took Zhu Ao and Di Lina to the main hall.
There are many Buddha statues enshrined in Jiming Temple, and Di Linaza has worshiped them one by one, Zhu Ao just stood by her side, looking at these Buddha statues very naturally, and did not bow down, nor spoke.
Although Di Linaza also wanted the prince to worship the Buddha with her and ask the Buddha to bless her peace, she knew that this prince had always been a very thoughtful person, since he didn't want to worship, he must have his thoughts, in front of outsiders, it was not easy to ask, so he had to worship one by one, and by the way, he said in his heart to ask the Buddha to bless Zhu Ao and the like.
The last Buddha statue of Dilina Zabai is Shakyamuni Buddha, that is, the legendary Buddha, and she is very religiously in front of the Buddha statue with three incense sticks. All etiquette is very standard, the attitude is also very respectful, it seems that Buddhism also has a certain place in her heart.
After the incense was applied, Zhu Ao and Di Linaza were about to turn around and leave, but they heard an old voice behind them shouting: "Donor, please stay." ”
Zhu Ao heard that he was calling himself, subconsciously stopped, turned around, and saw a kind old monk walking towards him, presumably he called himself, and said, "Dare to ask the master what he has to say?" ”
The old monk walked up to Zhu Ao, folded his hands, said Amitabha Buddha and said: "The old man just has one thing to understand, the donor visited all the Buddha statues in the temple with this female benefactor, but he didn't worship the Buddha, why is this?" ”
"Hahaha." Zhu Ao laughed wildly, quite a taste of Fengge laughing at Kongqiu, and said with an attitude like a master: "The Buddha is in the heart, why bother to ask for it?" What do I worship these clay statues? ”
These words startled Di Linazha, in her eyes, Zhu Ao's words are already disrespectful to the Buddha, as a princess, the prince is naturally the most important person in her life, she was afraid that the prince would be punished by the Buddha because of this sentence, so she immediately pulled Zhu Ao's sleeve, and said very frightened: "Master, please be cautious in the land of Buddhism." ”
Not only Di Linazha, but even the monks in the temple were shocked when they heard this, daring to be so arrogant in the land of Buddhism, and directly demoting the Buddha statue to a clay statue, is it really that their eighteen Arhats do not exist? Most people also glared at Zhu Ao angrily, just waiting for the abbot's master to give an order.
Unexpectedly, after the old monk just heard Zhu Ao's words, he didn't laugh angrily, nodded very kindly, and said to Zhu Ao: "Okay, good." Lao Wei is not mistaken, the donor is really a person with wise roots, and the donor has realized the true meaning of Buddhism, so naturally there is no need to worship Buddha statues. Donor, please walk slowly. ”
Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans, plant good causes to get good results, don't do good things on weekdays, just think that you can get the blessing of the Buddha by worshipping these clay statues, then the Buddha is not too unwise, can let those villains fool casually.
Zhu Ao has always believed that the Buddha is in his heart, in your usual life, so he never worships the Buddha statue, seeing that the master agrees with his point of view, he also has a feeling of finding a soulmate, and saluted with his fists: "Master, please stay, and say goodbye." With that, he walked out of Jiming Temple with Di Linazha.
After burning incense in Jiming Temple, Zhu Ao took Di Lina to the Confucius Temple, according to the opinion of later generations, he is now on vacation and has a lot of time to squander, so he slowly and leisurely shook to the Confucius Temple. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Confucius Temple area was used for the examination, and the Jiangnan Tribute Institute here was the largest tribute courtyard in the country, which sent a lot of talents for the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Later generations of Zhu Ao has never been to Nanjing, let alone visited the Confucius Temple, he could have been through the identity of the prince to go in and see, but considering that there will be spring tomorrow spring, just do it, and the Confucius Temple has been burned down by several wars, it has long been not what it was at the beginning, it makes little sense to see or not, anyway, after crossing over, all I saw were ancient buildings, and I had visited enough.
Zhu Ao just took Di Lina to wander around the periphery of the Confucius Temple, by the way to see the scenery of the Qinhuai River in the south of it, I have to say that the ancient ten miles of the Qinhuai River is really not blowing, there are flower boats everywhere, the dress is magnificent, and the people who come in and out are also dignitaries, and it is a place for people to throw money.
When the two were snuggling up to each other and strolling, they suddenly heard someone shouting: "Sheng Gongzi, don't you close the stall?" ”
Zhu Ao instinctively turned his head to look in the direction where the shout came from, and saw a middle-aged man in his thirties selling words, Zhu Ao, who was proficient in calligraphy, could see at a glance that his handwriting was good, and he must also be a candidate who planned to take the exam, because the money bag was empty, so he had to sell words to make a living.
"It's coming, it's coming. After waiting for a while, the stall will be closed, or the soldiers and horses patrolling the city should take people. The middle-aged man smiled and said to the person just now haha, it can be seen that these two people are more familiar with each other on weekdays.
Now when I see the real scene, I can't help but feel a little curious in my heart, and I want to go up to talk to him to see what kind of scene this kind of people have in their hearts, so he stepped forward and said with a smile: "This gentleman, the handwriting is good." ”
When the middle-aged man saw a gorgeously dressed man coming with a beautiful aristocratic young woman, he knew that today's accommodation fee should have been settled, since ancient times, this kind of boy brother's money is the best to earn, he arched his hand at Zhu Ao, and said with a smile: "This little brother seems to be also an expert, if you can see these few words written by the villain, please appreciate the money for dinner, Sheng Yong is grateful." ”
Zhu Ao was playing with a piece of words, as soon as he heard the words "Sheng Yong", he shook his hand excitedly, and a word almost fell, and he unconsciously raised his eyes again to look at this middle-aged man, and he really had a calm temperament, and at first glance he was a person who could be entrusted with great things, and said with a smile: "Mr. is too modest, your handwriting is good, I will buy two and hang them at home." After that, he happily took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Sheng Yong. Zhu Ao didn't ask him the price, because he knew that the money he gave would definitely exceed the value of the two characters.
Sheng Yong saw that the buyer was so generous, and he was also happy in his heart, and after completing this business, at least he would not be hungry for the next two days, so he hurriedly reached out and took Zhu Ao's money, and said with a smile: "Thank you for this little brother, if the little brother is in need, please take care of it, the villain sets up a stall here every day." ”
Zhu Ao gave the painting in his hand to Di Linazha and motioned her to put it away, then ignored Di Linazha's suspicious gaze, and said to Sheng Yong very kindly: "I don't know where this gentleman lives?" I also like calligraphy very much, and I hope to have the opportunity to consult with him. ”
Hearing this, Sheng Yong's heart was happy, it seemed that he could still have a long-term customer and do long-term business, and immediately said with a smile: "The villain lives in the nearby Yunxi Inn, and the little brother can find it as soon as he inquires." ”
Zhu Ao smiled slightly: "If you have the opportunity, you must come to Mr. to ask for advice." With that, he left the Confucius Temple with his hands in his hands. Like a well-behaved kitten, Dilinaza followed behind him with the two words in both hands. provoked Sheng Yong with envy.
At this time, it was getting late, Zhu Ao didn't want to go back to his original home, it was rare to take his girlfriend out, of course, it was romantic enough to stay in a hotel outside, and took Di Linaza's little hand and said: "Let's go, let's find a hotel nearby to stay." ”
In fact, in addition to building the palace for him to live in, Zhu Yuanzhang also built many villas on the famous scenic spots in Jinling, the most famous of which is the villa built in Mochou Lake, but he had already lost to Xu Da back then, so Zhu Ao was not easy to bother.
Fortunately, this is the Qinhuai River, and in addition to the brothels of the flower boat in the ten miles along the coast, there are many high-end restaurants where you can stay, which is a good place for the small couple who come out to travel.
Di Linaza crossed her hands and hugged the two paintings, with a strong scholarly temperament, very similar to the goddess of college students in later generations, Yingying followed behind Zhu Ao, and joked with a smile: "Do you want to take a look at the night view of the Qinhuai River in this ten miles?" Look at those flower boats, now they are starting to attract customers? ”
Zhu Ao turned around, hugged her slender waist, flicked it on her handsome little nose, and said, "Okay, you little girl has learned to tease Master Ben, right?" Master, I will punish you to serve the master at night to relieve boredom. ”
Although Di Linaza is a foreign woman, a little more free and easy than a woman in the Central Plains, she can't stand Zhu Ao making such a joke in public, and said: "The master is so annoying, how can he talk to his concubine about such a thing in public?" Shame on you. ”
"Hahaha." Zhu Ao didn't feel happy in his heart, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Good, good, good." Let's not talk about it in public, let's do it directly at the inn. You see the big inn in front of you is good, let's go with Master Ben. ”
Zhu Ao said, pointed to a big inn called Yuelai Inn in front of him, and led Di Linaza towards the inn. A hint of shyness flashed on Di Linaza's cheeks, but she was still looking forward to it, and she enjoyed every moment with the king. As long as she is with the king, she feels comfortable in every pore of her, and being conquered by the king and immersed in his majestic and domineering favor is the happiest thing in her life.
