266, wish
After Wei Xinyu sent Berdan away, he returned to the wedding table, at this time the host announced the wedding ceremony, everyone frequently raised their glasses, toasted each other, and began to staggered at the wedding banquet. He walked to Heng Liya's side and didn't sit down, Lu Xiangdong walked over with a wine glass and a smile, followed by Xie Suli also holding a drink in his hand, Lu Xiangdong patted Wei Xinyu's shoulder and congratulated:
"Congratulations on your son picking up a beautiful daughter-in-law! I wish you all a speedy hug of your grandson. ”
Wei Xinyu immediately picked up a wine glass from the table, clinked glasses with Lu Xiangdong, and said:
"Thank you for your good words, cheers!"
The two of them raised their heads and drained the wine glass in their hands. Wei Xinyu picked up the wine bottle on the table and added wine to Lu Xiangdong, Xie Suli stretched out the cup in front of Heng Liya and said:
"Congratulations!"
Heng Liya smiled and said, "Tongxi! ”
The two women clinked glasses and drank their drinks. Immediately afterwards, many people walked up to Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya to congratulate. Wei Xinyu drank a lot of wine, Heng Liya knew that he was a metal man, and the wine was like ordinary water in his stomach, so he didn't need to worry that he would get drunk, but he felt that eating was wasted in his stomach, and it was a bit of a ramp.
His son Wei Zhen and daughter-in-law Jing Zhonghua also came to Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya to toast them. Wei Zhen and Jing Zhonghua both had red faces and looked like they had drunk a lot of wine, Wei Zhen said to them with a wine glass:
"Thank you for taking care of me, I am now an adult and can take on the responsibility of the family. Cheers! ”
Jing Zhonghua raised the wine glass in his hand and said, "Cheers!" ”
Heng Liya happily raised her glass and said, "My son has grown up, congratulations, cheers!" ”
"Cheers!" Wei Xinyu said excitedly, after he clinked glasses, he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp and continued, "My wish is to hope that you will live in peace and security in the future, and I don't want you to take any more adventures when I am a father." ”
General Jing came over with a cup and said, "Well said! I think that being able to live a peaceful life in this life is the greatest happiness. ”
Chairman Wang Shouren also came to join in the fun, and he said with a smile:
"The struggle of our generation is for the happiness of our children and grandchildren. Am I right? Cheers! ”
After everyone clinked glasses, Wei Zhen and Jing Zhonghua went to the next door to toast. Chairman Wang Shouren and General Jing sat on the two empty seats next to Wei Xinyu by the way, and chatted with Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya while eating. When talking about the future work arrangements of Wei Zhen and Jing Zhonghua, General Jing said to Chairman Wang Shouren very bluntly:
"Although Wei Zhen is my son-in-law, I still recommend it to you, his ability is much stronger than mine. Before he became the leader of the Dark Planet Expedition, he was already the commander of the Space Fleet of the Earth Star Nation, and now that he is back, at least let him be reinstated. ”
Chairman Wang Shouren smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, we have already arranged his position. ”
Wei Xinyu asked with great concern: "What position are you going to arrange for him?" ”
Chairman Wang Shouren said: "In order to threaten the outside world, the Earth Star Country is preparing to establish the Earth Star Country Space Expeditionary Fleet, and he will be the commander. ”
Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya said in unison: "No! ”
Chairman Wang Shouren spread his hands and said, "Why not? Wei Zhen is young and promising, and he has been in the heavenly court, if he can't do it, no one can be this commander. ”
Heng Liya pointed at Wei Xinyu and said, "He is the most suitable commander of this space expeditionary fleet." ”
Chairman Wang Shouren turned his head to look at Wei Xinyu and asked, "Are you willing?" You've been prevaricating in front of me. ”
Wei Xinyu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it." For the sake of his son, he had no choice but to agree.
Chairman Wang Shouren was very happy when he saw Wei Xinyu nodding and agreeing, and said, "Since you are the commander of the Space Expeditionary Fleet, I will arrange Wei Zhen to be the chief of staff of the Earth-Star Country's Sea, Land and Air Joint Corps. ”
"Where's the flower in the scene?" General Jing was afraid that the chairman had forgotten to arrange for her daughter.
"She?" Chairman Wang Shouren thought for a while and said, "The officials of the provinces and states of the Earth Star Country are full, and now the election of the third women president of the Earth Star Country has not yet expired, and it is now an era of peace, according to the regulations, women of her age in the army need to retire, and we still have to consider her work." ”
Heng Liya suggested: "Do we have a laboratory to build Superman in Yanggong Temple?" I suggest setting up a genetic research institute in the Earth Star Country, continue to do superhuman experiments, it belongs to the army establishment, and let Jing Zhonghua be the director, the general level, it will not be a loss for her. ”
Chairman Wang Shouren reminded: "The Earth Star Country Gene Research Institute already has it. ”
Heng Liya thought for a while and said: "The laboratory is in Yanggong Temple, which is called the Institute of Buddhism in the Earth Star Country externally, and the Superman Experimental Research Institute of the Earth Star Country internally. ”
Chairman Wang Siuren felt that it was feasible, and he said: "Okay, I will make a decision after I have discussed it with the vice chairmen and the prime minister." ”
Chairman Wang Shouren thought that his goal had been achieved, and before the wedding was over, he took a special car and went home.
The wedding lasted until after dinner.
Soon the Institute of Buddhism in the Kingdom of Earth was established, and Jing Zhonghua became the director of the institute. Many monks in Yanggong Temple felt strange that the qualifications of the Buddhist Research Institute of the Earth Star Kingdom should be Elder Yihong, or Wei Zhen could do it, but it was indeed difficult to convince the public to let a female pilgrim from Yanggong Temple be the director. Elder Yihong had no choice but to explain to his disciples: she was the director of Buddhist scripture research, and she was an official, not a practitioner.
In order to match her position as the director, Jing Zhonghua spent a few days with Wei Zhen writing a book "A Brief Explanation of the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom", which was published overnight in the Earth Star Kingdom Publishing House.
However, most of the monks in Yanggong Temple know Jing Zhonghua, they only know that Jing Zhonghua is a female pilgrim, and they still talk about it, thinking that Jing Zhonghua does not understand Buddhist scriptures and does not have the ability to be this director. In order to silence these monks, Heng Liya discussed with Elder Yihong and thought that Jing Zhonghua would give lectures to the monks and pilgrims in the Buddhist hall.
Elder Yihong hesitated a little, and he asked Heng Liya:
"Is she okay?"
Heng Liya handed Jing Zhonghua's work "A Brief Explanation of the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom" to Elder Yihong and said:
"When you read this book that she wrote, you think he's qualified. There should be no problem with her speech. With all the sutras in her brain, I'm just worried about her live level play. ”
Elder Yihong briefly looked at Jing Zhonghua's book "A Brief Explanation of the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom" and said:
"I'll answer you when I've read her book."
"Okay." Heng Liya nodded and said, "I'll wait for your news." ”
Elder Yihong spent a day reading Jing Zhonghua's "A Brief Explanation of the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom" carefully, thinking that she wrote very well, and it didn't feel like a work of Jing Zhonghua alone, and the content in it seemed to have Wei Zhen's statement, but this was a rare Buddhist book, and he decided to listen to Jing Zhonghua's speech again to see if she really had such a level.
It is also Wei Zhen's wish to let Jing Zhonghua promote Buddhism for him, of course he does not want his daughter-in-law to be embarrassed in the Buddhist hall, so Jing Zhonghua's speech has also been carefully revised by him to try to be foolproof.
In order to listen to the speech of the flower in the scene, Elder Yihong specially found an inconspicuous place to sit down in the main hall of the speech. Today, the hall is full, in addition to pilgrims, there are many monks. Wei Xinyu, Heng Liya and Wei Zhen sat down in the last row.
Jing Zhonghua was on a chair on the podium in the main hall, and with the help of a microphone, she held up a book in her hand and said to everyone:
"This is my recent "Brief Lecture on the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom", if you are interested, you can go to the elders to get it after I finish my speech."
The whole hall was silent, and the pilgrims and monks under the podium stared at the flowers in the scenery and listened to her speech:
"The content of my speech today is a very small part of my "Brief Lecture on the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom", which is my personal preliminary research results on Buddhism, and I hope you will correct if there is anything inappropriate."
Elder Yihong didn't expect the usual swaggering Jingzhonghua, who was extremely calm at this time, and looked like a scholar.
The flower in the scene began her speech:
"Buddhism came from the distant earth to the earth, and its essence is wisdom, which is emptiness from the true meaning and existence from the ordinary truth. I think the true meaning of Buddhism is the word "emptiness". Buddhism talks about the emptiness of all things, the emptiness of color, the emptiness of color, and so on. As the "Four Noble Truths" that Buddha Shakyamuni realized after his enlightenment on earth, that is, "suffering, concentration, extinction, and path", it also boils down to the word "emptiness". Life is "bitter". The cause of suffering is "set". The so-called "set" refers to the intersection of human desires and the objective environment. The objective environment will never be preset according to people's desires, and when a person's desires cannot be satisfied in the objective reality, they will inevitably feel bitter. In this case, one must "extinguish" one's desires and afflictions and attain the highest ideal of renunciation, nirvana and silence. This is "emptiness". ”
When the pilgrims of the Earth Planet heard about the Earth for the first time, they felt that they were in the clouds, and they were quietly discussing in private, and the hall began to be a little chaotic. Elder Yihong stood up and explained to everyone:
"It is true that what Director Jing said about Buddhism came from the distant earth to the earth. This earth is parallel to our planet, and scientists from our planet have explored the location of the earth, and he published an article on the situation of the earth in parallel space in the 9th issue of this year's "Exploration" magazine. ”
After Elder Yihong sat down, Director Jing continued her speech:
The so-called "emptiness" means that when facing life, no matter what appears in life, no matter whether there is bitterness, happiness, or badness, the mind can not be separated from afflictions, and even if afflictions arise temporarily, they can be subdued in the same way. In this way, you can gain freedom and happiness, and when all appearances no longer bind your heart, there is no pain at all, and then it is the Western Bliss, which is freedom, liberation, and the highest state of Buddhism! I believe that for those who are new to Buddhism, this understanding should be very considerate, and it is. Some people believe that the highest state of Buddhism is to live in peace for a long time without a single thought. This is due to a lack of understanding of Buddhism. Buddhism does not teach us to be passive and avoid the world, nor does it turn a sentient being into an insensitive ruthlessness, nor does it set up a Western Elysium elsewhere and wait for when we will be able to die. The so-called highest state of Buddhism is a comprehensive category, and only the state of unscattered inner mind can be possessed even by worldly meditation, so it is still very biased to use him as the standard for judging the realm. ”
……
Although Jing Zhonghua's speech was controversial, her speech was successful, especially the "Brief Lecture on the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom" written by her was praised by many Buddhist people, and her research was recognized by the Earth Star Buddhist community, and no one raised any objections to her position as the director of the Earth Star Kingdom Buddhist Research Institute.
As a Buddhist research institute of the Earth Star Country, there are few exchanges with the outside world, and the research in the laboratory is not Buddhism, but Superman, creating future warriors for the Earth Star Kingdom to enter outer space.
