On this night, a generation of eminent monks Wen Song Zen Master passed away, before the death, he left a sentence to his disciples, "Even after a hundred tribulations, the work will not die." When karma meets, the retribution will be repaid. ”

The death of Zen Master Wensong did not alarm the people in the world, but when cremated, there were many relics, colorful, different shapes, and different sizes. In just one day, thousands of relics were picked up.

Seeing relics is like seeing the Buddha in person.

The disciples of Zen Master Wensong reported the matter to the imperial court, Emperor Tianyou did not believe in Buddhism, but Empress Li was a devout Buddhist, she insisted on welcoming the Buddha's bones, and to rebuild a small Buddha in the palace to worship.

Although the dispute between Confucianism and Buddhism in Jingguo was not as fierce as in the previous dynasty, and even at the beginning of the founding of the country, Buddhism had the respect of the state religion, but the contradiction still existed, and the courtiers were opposed to Queen Li's desire to welcome the Buddha's bones into the palace for worship.

"God bless the first year, it's really a lot of things." Yan Hagi sighed. Shi Qing is a matter of life, she participated, and she did not approve of this matter of welcoming the Buddha's bones, so she did not plan to participate.

Yan Hagi was reluctant to participate, but Empress Li summoned her into the palace, "Xiaoxiao, you help me think of ideas, so that the courtiers don't object so much to my welcome Buddha's bones." ”

"Niangniang, have you read the "Bone Table of the Buddha" submitted by the courtiers?" Yan Hagi asked.

"No, Your Majesty just said a few words to me, I should not believe in Buddhism, and also listed the things that caused the Buddha to be a disaster for the court in the past dynasties, and said that the Buddha bones, the emperor's industry will 'not last long', and also said that 'the Buddha seeks blessings, but it is more trouble'. It's as if I welcomed the Buddha's bones and harmed Your Majesty, as if I had become the demon queen of the country. Empress Li said aggrievedly.

"Niangniang is a bodhisattva's heart, but Niangniang, didn't you hear what Your Majesty meant?" Yan Hagi asked.

"What does Your Majesty mean? What do you mean, Your Majesty? Empress Li looked at Yan Hagi in confusion.

"Niangniang, do you remember Your Majesty's attitude when Shi Qing happened?" Yan Hao's past guided her, instead of directly helping her with ideas, she didn't want to be cannon fodder between the emperor and the queen.

"At that time, the courtiers also kept asking His Majesty to ask Shi Qing for the crime, it was your idea ......" Empress Li looked happy, "Xiaoxiao, do you mean that we will give full play to the public opinion of the people again?" ”

Yan Hagi shook his head, "Niangniang, if Your Majesty wanted to execute Shi Qing, he would not have deprived Shi Qing of her fame when he was imprisoned in the prison." This shows His Majesty's attitude.

Empress Li thought for a moment, "You mean that Your Majesty doesn't want to execute Shi Qing." ”

"Yes, so we're just taking advantage of the situation, Niangniang, you have to analyze, does Your Majesty want to welcome the Buddha's bones into the palace?" Yan Hagi said with a straight face.

Empress Li lowered her head and pondered for a long time, "I don't think Your Majesty wants to welcome the Buddha's bones into the palace, but ......"

"Niangniang, Your Majesty is the lord of the world, do you think it's okay if you go against his will?" Yan Hagi interrupted her and asked in a deep voice. The saint is still quite receptive to advice, but welcoming the Buddha's bones into the palace is not the right thing.

"I'm the queen, can't I even do this?" Empress Li was wronged again.

Yan Hao said calmly: "It's true that you are the queen, but you have to think about it, who canonized you as the queen?" ”

"It's Your Majesty......" Empress Li came back to her senses, and was afraid for a while, "Xiaoxiao, I almost offended Your Majesty's Long Wei." "If she insists on welcoming the Buddha's bones into the palace, it will inevitably make His Majesty dissatisfied, and when the time comes, she will only be afraid that her position as the queen will be unstable.

Yan Hao smiled, "Niangniang, what to do, you know it in your heart, right?" ”

"Thank you, Xiaoxiao." Empress Li hugged Yan Hagi.

"Don't thank you verbally, give me some reward." Yan Hagi stretched out his hand and said with a smile.

Empress Li slapped her hand away, "A cart of tribute has already been prepared, you can take it back to the house." ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Yan Hagi owes himself.

"After lunch, I will leave the palace." Empress Li said with a smile.

"Go to Fushou Palace to rub the Queen Mother." Yan Hagi smiled.

"Okay." Empress Li and Yan Hagi got up and went to Fushou Palace.

In the Fushou Palace, the Empress Dowager Shen was saying to her confidant female official that Empress Li was going to welcome the Buddha bones into the palace to worship, "I really didn't expect her to believe in Buddhism and be so obsessed, if she insists on welcoming the Buddha bones into the palace, Your Majesty is only afraid that she will have an opinion on her, I am alive, and I can protect her, if I am not there, her situation will be very difficult." "The relationship between Shengshang and Empress Li is not as deep as that between her and the first emperor, perhaps because she was chosen by the first emperor, and Empress Li was chosen by her.

The saint gave Empress Li the respect she deserved, and she would stay in the Jiaofang Hall on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, and even in order to reflect the status of Empress Li, she gave birth to the Feng and He clans of the prince, and she was only canonized as the second concubine, and there was no title. But that's all there is to it, and there will be no more.

"The queen has summoned Mrs. Anguo into the palace, Mrs. Anguo is smart, she will definitely be able to persuade the queen, please relax." The female officer comforted her.

"The first emperor of the year...... Alas, if you don't mention it, it's melancholy. Empress Dowager Shen leaned on the cushion.

The palace maid came in, "Niangniang, the queen mother and Mrs. An Guogong ask to meet." ”

"Let them in." Empress Dowager Shen said with a smile.

When Yan Hagi came in, he shouted: "Uncle, Xiaoxiao is here to eat, I heard the queen mother say that the roasted duck made by a cook in the imperial dining room is delicious, I want to eat it." ”

"A delicious girl, her mouth is so greedy, why can't she eat fat? It looks like he's lost weight again. Empress Dowager Shen pinched Yan Hao's cheek affectionately.

"I'm not thin, I just weighed it on the scale yesterday, eighty-two pounds." Yan Hagi grinned.

"It's still thin, I have to grow another ten pounds, and I look good." Empress Dowager Shen said with a smile.

"Then I'll eat more today and gain weight." Yan Hagi smiled.

When it was time for lunch, Princess An Le and Princess Yongle brought Yaya and Shen Zhuan over with them. Shen Zhuan is Shen Mufan's second daughter, and Empress Li ordered her to be Princess Yongle's companion.

"Mother, why did you enter the palace?" The maid threw herself into Yan Hao's arms, "I knew you were going to enter the palace, and I would have waited for you this morning." ”

"You entered the palace so early, so I don't want to be with you." Yan Hagi pouted, she didn't want to get up at the right time.

In the afternoon, Yaya had no class, and after having lunch in Fushou Palace, Yan Hagi took her daughter home with her, and with them went out of the palace was a cart of tribute given to Yan Hagi by Queen Li.

After Yan Hao's persuasion, Empress Li no longer insisted on welcoming the Buddha's bones into the palace, and Empress Dowager Shen breathed a sigh of relief, "I am finally willing to listen to persuasion." ”

The courtiers no longer let the book admonish, and Emperor Tianyou issued an order to let several major temples near the capital worship these relics, and the stone washing nunnery in the city also got ten bone relics.

After the end of the Buddha bones, the topic of the market focused on this year's talent show, the former crown princess is now the queen, and the current prince is still young and has not yet married a wife; The initiator of the talent festival was crowned by Princess Rui.
