Chapter 150: Investigating Buddhist Matters

Song Dazhong and Yin Li were in a bad mood, and their steps were sometimes fast and sometimes slow.

By the time they returned to the inn in White Emperor City, it was already dark.

Situ Langren and the eldest princess were taken aback, and said that they had to go home and rest for the night, so why did they go back to the inn so quickly? After a little inquiry, they learned that Song Dazhong's entire family had been killed. If you want to talk about tragedy, Situ Langren and the eldest princess were reborn in the tragedy, and they can understand Song Dazhong's state of mind at the moment.

Hearing that Song Dazhong wanted to seek revenge on Song Yuanshan, Situ Langren became a supporter.

Originally, he and the eldest princess had already cut off the past, and they didn't want to ask about mundane things anymore.

It's just that the matter of forgetting the forest is vivid, and he can't know how to repay it.

So, when Song Dazhong was looking for a good way to take revenge, he suddenly said: "Brother Dazhong, you must not be in a hurry to take revenge, and if you are in a hurry, there will be chaos. ”

Song Dazhong said strangely: "What excuse do you use?"

Situ Langren said: "Don't forget, in addition to giving marriage, I also have the secret edict of the Queen Mother, specifically to investigate the Buddha's preaching, tomorrow I will use this excuse to go to the Song State Mansion, then Song Yuanshan must also be there, then I will act on the camera, first help you find out the whereabouts of your nephew and niece, and you should find the child before taking revenge." ”

After hearing this, Song Dazhong was like clearing the clouds and seeing tomorrow.

"The general's intention is exactly what I want, please leave everything to me. ”

After the four of them finished talking, they each went back to their rooms to rest, and there was nothing else that night.

In the early morning of the next day, Situ Langren went to the Song Guogong Mansion as planned.

Song Guogong Song Weichao is an old guy who likes to lock himself in a deep house.

When he was young, he ate, drank, and indulged excessively, so that he lost money and grew old very quickly. For some reason, he has recently become obsessed with Buddhism and devoted himself to practice, and he has not seen anyone who comes to pay respects. This time, when he learned that the queen mother's envoy had arrived, he just came out to greet him, and then went to the deep courtyard and handed over the trivial matters of reception to Song Yuanshan.

Song Yuanshan led Situ Langren to the study to serve tea.

The two sat down, and Song Yuanshan opened his mouth and said: "Recently, I heard that the eldest princess's chariot ship is about to arrive in Yan Kingdom, Weichen and his brother are very happy, and they planned to prepare gifts to go to Lei Ze to attend the wedding in person, but they didn't know that the eldest princess ......." Hey, Wei thieves are rampant, making the princess suffer and the general suffering. ”

Situ Langren pretended to be sad and sighed: "The princess was killed, and the last general will not escape the involvement, and when this is over, the last general will go back to ask for the guilt." It's just that although the last general is guilty, the affairs assigned by the Queen Mother still have to be completed with all her might, so she also asks Lord Tingwei to give advice. ”

Song Yuanshan arched his hand: "I respectfully ask the general to give the order." ”

Situ Langren said: "Although the Song Kingdom is far away from the imperial capital, the emperor's grace is undiminished, and the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother are always concerned about it, hoping that your country will be smooth and the country will be safe." It's just that there have been some rumors recently that Buddhism in your country is booming, and there is something very strange, and the Queen Mother sent me over to ask why. ”

Song Yuanshan smiled: "This is not strange. ”

Situ Langren said: "Please tell Captain Tingwei in detail." ”

Song Yuanshan said: "The Buddha has been preaching in the south for some years, and there are not many monks who preached in the past, and he only did things such as healing injuries and healing diseases, preaching and edifying, so he has not been prosperous, the main reason is that my Hyuga Empire believes in the Emperor of Heaven and does not believe in this Buddhist doctrine. Until four months ago, there was a plague along the coast of our Song Kingdom, and nearly 1,000 people died, but they were all saved by these Buddhist monks. ”

Situ Lang Renqi said: "The Buddha really has the art of resurrecting the dead?"

Song Yuanshan nodded: "Not only the resurrection of the dead, but also the theory of reincarnation." The missionary Buddhists said that the soul of a person is transformed by the luck of heaven and earth, and after death, the soul returns to the original and turns into nothing, but there are six ways of reincarnation in the Dharma, and if a person goes to the Buddha, he can be summed up in the asura realm after death, and he will be reborn again and forever. ”

Situ Lang said benevolently: "It seems that it is really heresy!"

In fact, the Buddha's preaching had nothing to do with him anymore.

Here, he only wanted to help Song Dazhong explore the depth of the water.

As for nagging about Buddhism, it's just to cover up intentions.

He pretended to be surprised, and said: "Reincarnation is reborn, and it will never be destroyed, and it is the first time I have heard of it. I saw that Lord Tingwei was talking just now, with a Buddha's hand, and I think you are convinced of this. ”

Song Yuanshan said with a smile: "The general doesn't know, after the plague, Weichen and his brother also suspected that the Buddha was preaching heresy, so they invited the Buddha to come to the house and ask for Buddhism. That night, the Buddha cast a spell and took Weichen and his brother to the Asura realm, and my two brothers witnessed these six reincarnations with their own eyes, if they don't believe it anymore, it will be biased. ”

Situ Langren said: "It's a little interesting, dare to ask which Buddhist is preaching?"

Song Yuanshan replied: "Oh, it's Sumeru Buddha, there is a disciple and a beast under the seat." ”

Situ Langren said: "Is it him? It is rumored that there are two disciples under the Buddha's seat, one is called Sumeru and the other is called Dingguang." I heard that the Sumeru Buddha has great powers, and he came to preach in person, no wonder the Buddha's light shines and prospers like this. Lord Tingwei, the last general wants to meet this Sumeru Buddha, please introduce him, the last general will see him, and he will have a good excuse to go back. ”

Song Yuanshan said: "This is simple, he will go to the Guogong Mansion tomorrow to talk to his brother about Buddha." In this case, please rest in the Guogong Mansion for the time being, and tomorrow when the Buddha and his brother finish talking about the Buddha, I will introduce you to him, how about it?"

Situ Langren waved his hand: "No, no, no, Song Guogong lives in a simple place and refuses to see people, and it is not as convenient as the self-surrender inn to rest here." Oh yes, I heard that Lord Tingwei has always been hospitable, if you don't like it, the last general will rest in your house. ”

Song Yuanshan laughed and said, "I can't ask for it, I just want to drink it at night." ”

The two drank tea with a cup and talked happily.

After a while, the Guogong Mansion held a banquet.

Dasi Nong and other high-ranking officials came to accompany him, drinking and talking.

Song Guogong came out to toast a glass of wine, and then went to the house.

Don't look at Situ Langren's unfavorable escort, he is a guilty body, but he is running an errand in the Song State at the moment, and he should be on an errand for the Queen Mother, and no one dares to slack off. After the banquet, it was already afternoon, and Song Yuanshan invited Situ Langren to rest in the Tingwei Mansion as promised.

Song Yuanshan arranged the best wing room for Situ Langren.

In the courtyard, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there are many pavilions and bridges.

In addition to the resting place, he also arranged several extremely beautiful maidservants.

These handmaidens are all pinching and pinching, and they are enchanting and charming.

Such an arrangement can be said to be extremely stammered.

You must know that when Situ Langren returns to the post, he must have said something to the Queen Mother. As the sole heir to the title, he must take the opportunity to befriend Situ Langren. The reason why Song Yuanshan exceeded the standard of hospitality was because the Song Kingdom was slightly weaker than other families, and whether the country was stable or not depended on the blessing of the imperial court.

Therefore, he only hoped that Situ Langren would return to the business and praise him.
