Chapter 157: The ancient sages were all lonely
Dugu Xinci didn't bother to evaluate how his students knew that the south of the city was worried and dreamy, and went back to Qingchuan to rest for a day, and tomorrow would be the avenue of the Daomen on March 6.
Water and land dojo, also known as water and land puja, water and land conference, water and land fasting, water and land dojo is the most solemn confession of Buddhism and Taoism.
The full name of the water and land dojo of Buddhism is the Dharma Realm Shengfan Water and Land Pudu Lent Victory Meeting, referred to as the Water and Land Meeting, also known as the Water and Land Zhai, Water and Land Dojo, and the Sadness Meeting.
The entire water and land puja lasted seven days and nights (there are also five days on the inner altar, starting from the third day), mainly including: sprinkling the enchantment, sending messengers, inviting to the hall, offering to the upper hall, inviting the lower hall, offering to the lower hall, offering baths, giving food, conferring ordination, and sending the saints. The objects of water and land offerings are divided into upper, middle and lower levels, and the upper ones are dedicated to the Buddhas of the Dharma Realm, the Bodhisattvas, the Yuanjue, the Shengwen, the Ming King, the Eight Divisions, and the Brahmin Immortals; the second is to make offerings to the Brahman Emperor Shakti for 28 days, and to empty all the gods; The next is to offer to the dragon gods of the five mountains, rivers, seas, and earth, the ancients, the asuras, the dependents of the underworld, the beings of hell, the ghosts and gods, and the side beings of the Dharma realm, that is, the four saints and six mortals in the six realms.
The Taoist Dharma Ritual includes: Open the Way Dojo, Lotus Lantern Dojo, Pull Out the Wound Dojo, Fill the Reservoir Dojo and Merit Dojo. The main thing is to surpass the immortal realm of the revenant, and not to fall into the underworld. Poetry: If there is heaven, it is the place where my father is exalted, and there is no hell and a little heart of the Son of Man. Such dojos range from a few hours to seven days and nights to forty-nine days.
The purpose of the dojo is to turn water, food, and other offerings into nectar, and to give relief to the parents of the ninth generation and all kinds of hungry ghosts, so that they can be transcended, reborn in the heavenly realm, and leave the sea of suffering forever. Through solemn and solemn ritual activities, let the gods recognize the filial piety merits of the lord of the fast, worship the heavens and ancestors, and repay the kindness of relatives, so as to bless the living with good fortune and good luck, and let the dead get rid of the sea of suffering and get involved in the fairy land.
The invitation card of the Daomen had already been sent to Qingchuan, and the content was to invite all the members of the Chinese Normal University Hall to watch the ceremony.
Dugu Xinci has the heart to go, disgusted with this kind of occasion is too gloomy, but Zhong Li said wrongly, it's okay not to come, then the day he returned to Qingchuan also needs to be discussed, so Dugu Xinci obediently began to pack up, from the eighth day of March Qingming Festival is not far away, the martyrs' shrine ceremony must not be sloppy, the saint appointed him as the prime minister, this time to return to Beijing need to stay a few more days.
In the afternoon, a group of people returned to Beijing, Yao Chong came back a little depressed after entering Beijing last time, Dugu Xinci and Nalan Feiya speculated that they were probably angry by their son Yao Yi of the Ming Mansion of Chang'an County, and this time they were a little excited about the invitation to return to Beijing, so they offered to stay on duty, and Dugu Xinci was of course praised.
Quan Yiquan and Xiao Wu Akong brought more than 100 students, Gu Meng also missed the prosperity of Kyoto a little, and the directors of the first six parts who had begun to write books also needed to go back to Beijing to report the safety of their families, so they gathered a team of almost 200 people, which was also a mighty one.
After entering the Chunming Gate, he saw Feng Yuanyi waiting, saying that the sage knew that he would return to Chang'an today, and asked him to go to the Martyrs' Shrine to check carefully, and hurry up if there is a need to rectify it.
Dugu Xinci let Quan Yiquan take people to the palace of Liaoyang County, and he also hurriedly followed Nalan Feiya to Daming Palace, the Martyrs' Shrine is at the northern foot of Longshou Mountain in Daming Palace, and Nalan Feiya also needs to go back to the Ayaqi Hall of Daming Palace.
For this reason, Dugu Xinci has some resentment, and he is more comfortable in the palace of Liaoyang County.
"That's you" Nalan Feiya understood her thoughts very well, but said, "It's not comfortable to go, besides, the queen has repeatedly invited a certain to talk, and it is understandable that a certain person is in Qingchuan, if you go back to Beijing this time to avoid it, how will you let a certain see her in the future?" ”
Dugu Xinci was speechless, and Nalan Feiya sighed again, "The queen is also very depressed now, Concubine Wu Hui is targeting her everywhere, many people have a lot of complaints about the queen in charge of the inner library, thinking that it is very indecent for the mother of a country to operate a cheap business, and Concubine Wu Hui asked the prince Shou Wang Mao to worship Song Jingxiang as a teacher two days ago, and the momentum is quite prosperous."
"Shouwang Mao worshiped Song Jing Xianggong as a teacher?" Dugu Xinci was amazed.
Nalan Feiya nodded.
"Song Jing Xianggong is in danger," Dugu Xinci sighed, and Nalan Feiya was suspicious.
"Song Jing is afraid that he needs to resign from the duty of the servant," Dugu Xinci continued to explain.
"Just because Shou Wang Mao worships him as a teacher and continues to resign from his position as a servant?" Nalan Feiya was puzzled.
"Originally, in the matter of sealing Mount Tai, Song Jing Xianggong went against the wishes of the saints and ministers, and the matter of Su Ying Xianggong is still delaying, so that his might is also reduced, and now he also accepts a prince as a disciple, which is self-inflicted and cannot live."
"You mean that he participated in the battle in the palace?"
"The battle in the palace is small, and involving the crown prince is a state affair" Dugu Xinci gloated a little.
"Oh, does so-and-so also need to reduce his dealings with the queen?"
"You are different, you were invited by the queen, you have known each other since childhood, if you don't come and go, it will seem to be unkind, and more importantly, the queen has no concubine, you help her without the crown prince, it doesn't matter"
"Oh, then listen to you, if you tell him today that Song Jing's future is not good, I'm afraid he will also be happy."
"Then let's be happy for a while."
"You're not happy to have someone to accompany you?"
"With you to accompany you, I am naturally happy, but I also want to be happier."
"Don't tell you, the prodigal"
Dugu Xinci applied to visit the Ayaqi Palace, but was also refused, so he turned west and went to the Martyrs' Shrine with Feng Yuanyi, the chief manager of Lijingmen.
Hanyuan Hall is the highest point of Longshou Mountain, Xuanzheng Hall and Zichen Hall are on the north slope, and the Martyrs' Shrine is on the halfway slope of the north foot of Longshou Mountain.
The Martyrs' Shrine was renovated on the basis of the original side hall, and the renovation in the past three months was also successfully completed, and only a small number of craftsmen were left to do the final repair.
The Martyrs' Shrine is close to the Sanqing Hall in the Daming Palace, and the Daomen is close to the water and the building is the first to get the moon, and a large number of Taoists have begun to arrange the ceremony.
"Lao Feng, it's been hard work, but the winter stove business has also been successful, how come this dividend has not been seen?" Dugu Xinci looked at Feng Yuanyi, the general of the left prison guard, and said.
"Isn't it indispensable for you, aren't you sending people to look for mines? A lot of expenses are being calculated, and the dividends will be paid to you in two days, whether to send them to the palace of Liaoyang County or Qingchuan Huashi University? Feng Yuanyi was also smiling when he heard that this matter was submitted.
"It seems that the situation is good, you have made a profit, right? Is there a six-digit number? ”
"Six figures? Oh, 100,000 times? Not so much? Your dividends of twenty or thirty thousand are still there."
"That's it, it's not enough to buy a book cover?" Dugu Xinci dislikes it, he buys books, but he buys an inch of books and an inch of gold, and ten thousand books become one volume?
"Who made you so ruined? Wanguan, enough for a few months of expenses for a certain Lijingmen"
"Ruzhi Lijingmen is really frugal, by the way, a certain is ready to run a car and ship shop, is Lijingmen interested in investing some money?"
"Investment? Oh, it's just paying, huh? If you are poor, you can invest freely, and it is a matter of course."
"Don't regret it"
"Your heart is really big, I heard that you intend to accept 100,000 hermits, Song Jing Xianggong woke up laughing, hey, isn't that Song Xianggong? He also came to check the Martyrs' Shrine."
Dugu Xin looked at it with his eyes, but no, the pure Song Jing Xianggong was alone and looking at the majestic main hall of the Martyrs' Shrine.
The Martyrs' Shrine is much more magnificent than the Lingyan Pavilion, the main hall is nine into seven, the side hall also has two, there are many houses and corridors, and the square in front of the hall is enough to accommodate 100,000 people.
Now that you see Song Jing Xianggong, let's step forward and say hello, right? Dugu Xinci and Feng Yuan glanced at each other and moved forward.
"Song Xianggong, can you have time today? It is an honor for the martyrs' shrine to be visited by Song Shizhong, "Dugu Xinci met the ministers and ministers, and it was a good word."
"Oh, Dugu Ming Mansion, how can I have time to go back to Beijing today?" Song Xianggong was actually a little lonely.
"The Martyrs' Shrine is about to open a ceremony, and a certain has been summoned back," Dugu Xinci explained briefly.
"The Martyrs' Shrine is about to be completed, and there is nothing missing from it," Song Xianggong said coldly.
Dugu Xinci looked at Feng Yuanyi again, Song Jing's situation today is not right? Where is the black-faced and vicious prime minister?
"That's good, there's a quiet room in this side room, why don't you go have a cup of tea?" Feng Yuanyi was familiar with the situation here, but Dugu Xinci, the prime minister of the Martyrs' Shrine Festival, was here for the first time, and everything was unknown.
Dugu Xinci patrolled with his eyes, and also felt that there was nothing wrong, so he nodded and followed Feng Yuanyi to the side room of the quiet room, and Song Jing also followed silently.
The quiet room is not big, three or four steps wide, but the carved window is plain wall, there is a case and a stove, there is a copper kettle on the stove, there is a coffee table and tea box on the case, and then there are a few futons and nothing else.
"It's wonderful here" Dugu Xinci commented, seeing that there was a tea cup on the desk and boiling water on the stove, he lifted the pot to wash the cup, Feng Yuanyi also opened the tea box on the desk, and Dugu Xinci ran tea to make tea and then toast tea.
"Your tea ceremony is chic," Song Jing was still expressionless.
"The trail in leisure time" is lonely and humble, smelling tea and tasting tea.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Dugu Xin praised "This tea is good, although Nanshan Yunwu Tea is not well-known, it is expensive in the fragrance, and when you leave, you must give two boxes and a certain box from Mr. Feng."
"This is placed by the Louguan faction, you are going to find them" Feng Yuanyi couldn't cry or laugh, what kind of person is this? When you see something good, you ask for it?
"Oh, just wait for someone to take away this box, I don't know if these Taoist leaders have complaints?" Dugu Xinci is free to do as he pleases.
"Far Eastern Hou Nailouguan sent Keqing, what did you do by taking away some tea?" Song Jing sneered.
"Don't tell and steal, it's not a gentleman's courtesy" Dugu is kind and hypocritical.
Feng Yuanyi and Song Jing were speechless.
There was silence in the quiet room, and the three of them silently drank tea.
"I have decided to go to Shi after Qingming," Song Jing said suddenly.
Feng Yuan almost spilled tea with a shake of his hand, but Dugu Xinci was unfazed.
"The master of the Xuanjing Realm was almost burned by the tea, and the general manager Feng saw that his concentration was not good," Song Jing smiled after saying this.
"It's a decision?" Dugu Xinci put down the teacup and sighed.
"It's already decided" Song Jing continued to taste the tea, looking at the two leisurely, Feng Yuanyi's face was entangled, although this Far Eastern Marquis was younger, he was more calm.
"How can you say such a big thing and listen to it," Feng Yuanyi smiled bitterly.
"But it's just three or two days that the matter will be revealed to the world, why can't it be said" Song Jing seemed to become light.
"No wonder Song Xianggong has time to come here today, congratulations to Song Xianggong" Dugu Xinci really congratulated.
"Where does joy come from? Song Xianggong wants to be a master? Who can be the prime minister under Song Xianggong? Song Xianggong thought twice? Feng Yuanyi was very puzzled and hurriedly comforted.
"There are no indispensable ministers in the world, and powerful ministers abound in the court, isn't there still Dugu Ming Mansion?" Song Xianggong seemed to be sarcastic.
"Song Xianggong seems to be full of resentment? Zhishi will be Zhishibei, from now on, leisurely health, why not be happy? By the way, Song Xianggong is interested in becoming a professor at China Normal University, and he is thirsty for talent," Dugu Xinci said with a smile.
"Shut up" Feng Yuanyi was a little irritable, and continued to persuade Song Xianggong, "At present, the matter of encapsulating the land in the central government has just started, the reform of the government and the army is still being discussed, and everything is complicated, how can Song Xianggong stay out of the matter?" The saint and all the people of the world will not agree to Song Xianggong's speech. ”
"Chief Manager Feng is quite worried about the government, but Dugu Mingfu has a saying, who cares about the flood after his death? The saint and the ministers of the court will also solve these matters" Song Jing shook his head, Dugu Xinci touched his nose, how could this spread so quickly? Is this flood theory just yesterday?
"The sage did not blame Song Xianggong for the matter of sealing Zen, but rather appreciated Song Xianggong's impartiality and straightforward advice, Song Xianggong did not need to take it to heart, and it was important to continue to plan for Yan Tang" Feng Yuanyi continued to persuade the great cause.
"A certain heart is tired, General Manager Feng doesn't need to say much, a certain person will go to the hall of China Normal University often, but he will not be a professor, and a certain person will be a student," Song Jing changed the topic.
"That's also welcome," Dugu Xinci still smiled.
"Song Xianggong, you are so happy?" Feng Yuanyi angrily reprimanded Dugu Xinci.
"Naturally happy, Song Xianggong can get rid of his troubles and cultivate leisurely from now on, this is a great joy?" Dugu is not convinced.
"Song Xianggong cultivates?" Feng Yuan was stunned.
"If a certain is a Confucian disciple, how can he cultivate the Tao?" Song Jing shook his head.
"Oh, I think that Song Xianggong came here today to enter the Martyrs' Shrine because he wanted to devote himself to the Tao from now on? Is that meditation teaching? Dugu Xinci continued to ask.
"Shouwang has his own famous teacher and professor, and he is just forced to hang the name of a teacher in the face of love" Song Jing smiled bitterly.
"Oh, do you think that Song Xianggong is obsessed with the name of the emperor's teacher? Affection hurts. ”
Dugu Xinci's words were a bit heart-wrenching, Feng Yuanyi and Song Jing stared at him suddenly, each tasting it, and sighing in their hearts.
"Emperor? False name, I don't want it" Song Jing looked lonely.
"Yes, how can the name of the emperor be as important as state affairs?" Feng Yuanyi also figured out what Dugu Xinci said.
Song Jing has been in a rather unbearable situation recently, Su Ying's affairs are a matter, the people's grievances are quite mixed, the matter of sealing Zen Mount Tai is a matter, against the will of the sage, several other ministers took advantage of the situation, Zhang said that the prime minister followed the saint, Zhang Jiazhen sat in the court, and the source Qianyao seemed to be obscure, but he was in frequent contact with the six departments.
The matter of enclosing the land was presided over by Yuwenrong Shilang, and the government soldiers were also negotiated by the Sixteen Guards with the Ministry of War, and the dredging of the Cao Canal now seems to be more like a joke.
Song Xianggong has always been not on good terms with the princes and ministers of the pro-kingdom, and the hottest Yuandong Hou in Chang'an today is a political enemy on the surface, Song Xianggong roared in the Lin De Palace, and the Yuandong Hou hugged his head and ran away, all thinking that the Yuandong Hou was young and vigorous, and he couldn't bear it for a while, but now Song Xianggong has lost his holy favor, and the Liaoyang County Wang is afraid that he will fall into the ground?
The saint seems to have alienated Song Xianggong, and all the ministers feel sorry for Song Xianggong, but they also have their own hearts.
But they didn't think of the ultimate reason why the saint was alienated from Song Xianggong, and at this moment, Dugu Xinci didn't seem to care, which made the two of them frightened.
"I saw that it was an oversight," Song Jing also sighed, "But the intention of a certain Zhishi has been decided, don't fall in love with the stack"
"The ancient sages are all lonely, only the drinker leaves his name, and he comes to a certain tea instead of wine to congratulate the Song sages" Dugu smiled and raised his glass.
"You're talking nonsense," Feng Yuanyi said angrily.
"Song Xianggong is so speechful, isn't it the sage's doing?" Dugu smiled kindly.
The bells and drums are not expensive enough, but I hope that I will not wake up after being drunk for a long time.
The ancient sages were all lonely, and only the drinker left his name.
