Chapter Ninety-Six: The Old Story of Jieshiling
When I was about to return to the Nameless Taoist Temple, a few snowflakes fell from the sky, and the snow that had been brewing for a few days finally fell.
The snowflakes flew down like the dust scattered by the gods in the sky, and like the elves that flew out of the sleeves of their robes when they laughed.
Before the Taoist entered the house, he took one last look back, and there were snowflakes flying all over the sky, and he was stunned for a while, "What a cool world," he muttered to himself.
"Master, why haven't you come in yet, didn't you say that it's strange and cold outside, I've made the carbon furnace." The apprentice urged on the side.
The Taoist wanted to sigh for the tranquility of heaven and earth, but he was awakened by the voice of the disciple.
I took a stride and opened the cotton curtain, and when I saw the cotton curtain, I couldn't help laughing.
The year before last, the child still wore single clothes in winter, but the older he got in the past two years, the more afraid he became of the cold.
Just after the cold dew, I began to cover it tightly, and I had to wear a scarf when I went out.
When I arrived at the thick ones I wore in Lidong, I also went to the market to buy cotton curtains and hung them up by myself.
"Master, Master......" I only heard the disciples call one after another, and the Taoist covered the cotton curtain and responded: "Coming, coming." ”
"Master, I'll give you a hot kettle."
As soon as he sat down cross-legged, he saw the apprentice bring another cushion, "Master, why are you sitting on the mat again, be careful of the cold, come and sit on this." ”
The Taoist smiled, took it and put it under him.
This feeling is very strange, as if he has also begun to covet the warmth of the world, and his original cultivation has made him not afraid of the cold in winter, let alone the cold.
Now, what's going on?
He took his glass and drank it down, the warmth of the glass making his tongue start to rattle.
"Tu'er, you ask what the battle of Jieshiling has to do with the party struggle? As a teacher, I will slowly give you the way. ”
"Master, but that party strife has attracted foreign criminals?" The apprentice dragged his cheeks and asked seriously.
"The children can be taught. Thinking that the Wuyan Kingdom came to invade back then, Emperor Weilie personally led his troops to defend Pingcheng, but unexpectedly, the thieves got the news, took a detour over Yuzhi Mountain, and went straight to Haojing.
Most of the troops defending Haojing were taken to Pingcheng by Emperor Weilie, and only some of the city's defense soldiers remained.
Fortunately, with the blessing of God, the secret post of a palace in Yuzhi Mountain at that time lit a beacon fire when he was dying.
Chaozhong was the second prince of the country at that time, and he was shocked when he got the news, and in desperation, he discussed to escape quickly.
It was still that Wenyuan Pavilion scholar who had backbone, said that he refused to run away, and led a group of Tai students to snipe the enemy, and they met in this Jieshi Ridge. ”
"And then? A group of students resisted the enemy? The apprentice couldn't help but ask.
"Hitting the stone with an egg, the consequences can be imagined, and when Emperor Mingwei sent the three princes to help, the blood of heroes and martyrs was already sprinkled on the Jieshi Ridge.
Although a small group of invading enemies was eliminated, the scholars and hundreds of students were killed here.
The three princes wept bitterly on the spot and vowed to drive all the Wuyan thieves out of the country.
And then, he did.
The second prince also lost the opportunity to be the prince, and the third prince ascended to the sky and was made the prince. ”
"Master, if I'm not mistaken, the Great Prince of Emperor Weilie is the ancestor of today, who was deposed because of his thirst for killing."
"Good memory, it was because the eldest prince was fond of killing, so Emperor Weilie intended to set up a gentle second prince, but he also had a preference for the three princes with outstanding abilities, and many ministers began to form a party to support different princes.
In this battle of Jieshiling, some people say that the henchmen of the second prince deliberately framed the scholars who supported the three princes, and some people say that the scholars went with the determination to die, and only his death could allow the third prince to squeeze out the second prince and ascend to the throne. ”
The disciple's mouth opened wide when he heard this, "Master, what do you think?" Is there such a strange thing in this? ”
"Apprentice, figure it out for yourself."
After a moment of silence, he added another glass of wine. "Master, I still have a question hidden in my chest, and I just want Master to explain it to me today."
"What kind of doubt, your little brain seems to have opened up recently."
"For some reason, I always find it strange that there are often thoughts that I didn't have before, but I don't know where they come from."
When the Taoist heard the disciple say this, he was also shocked in his heart, as if he suddenly understood.
He stared directly at the apprentice with his eyes like a probe for a long time.
"Don't be afraid, I have heard a rumor that if a person's soul is lost, there will be some vague memories, but you have not forgotten anything, it's just, it's just ......"
"Master, could it be that someone else's courage has come to me?" When the disciple said this, his mouth grew in horror.
"I can't say for sure as a teacher, but these are just legends, not to mention that if the spirit is separated from the soul, it is not aggressive, and it cannot hurt people.
You don't have to be afraid, everything is with the Master. ”
"Master, do you remember the proverb that Uncle Shi left behind when he left?
He said that the moon in the mirror can also be round. I didn't understand it at the time, and I didn't believe it. ”
"The moon in the mirror can also be round, it is indeed this sentence.
Although your uncle and I both studied under your ancestor, due to our personal qualifications, the content of our cultivation is not the same.
Proverbs and divination belong to the same mountain and moon stream, and those who are truly cultivated can indeed predict the prophet.
Things in the world and encounters are all interconnected. ”
"Master, is the divination in the palace also a real skill? I've seen that Gongxue has been very lively in the past six months. ”
"Hahaha, my good disciple also wants to worship in the palace and rise to the top?
Isn't Gongxue's divination the trick of the White Tiger Palace, it can't be taken seriously.
However, the emperor still had two brushes, he used palace science to interweave those divination prophecies with the Confucian classics, and then borrowed the spiritual control power of the Three Holy Religions to make the dogma of the saints and the revelation of the gods one.
In this way, Gongxue became Confucian orthodoxy, and the emperor who led the Three Holy Sects became the guide of God in the world.
I don't know who gave him such a trick? ”
"Who else can there be, it must be that demon concubine.
I went to the market to buy cotton curtains, and when those ladies mentioned Concubine Yun, they all called the demon concubine, and they all looked indignant, I thought they were jealous. ”
"Oh, why jealousy?"
"Master, what do you think, Concubine Yun has been married among the people, and she can still enter the palace to be a concubine and be favored by the emperor, not to mention, she can also influence the court.
What else can ordinary people think? Ordinary people can't even keep their husband's favor, looking at Concubine Yun's encounter, isn't there only jealousy left? ”
"In this way, it is indeed jealousy at work, but it is not false that she is a demon concubine, her demon is here."
The Taoist pointed to his head and shook his head.
The apprentice watched from the side and laughed.
