Liu Yan copied the scriptures stroke by stroke.

It's strange to talk about it, when she copies other homework, she can't calm down. As for the Buddhist scriptures, she had never read them before.

At this time, I am copying and copying, and my heart is very stable.

The room was very quiet, incense was burning in the green jade pearl smoker on the low table, and the smoke rose from the flower hole cover, gradually diffusing in the room.

The heart is like a painter, who can paint the world.

Liu Yan paused for a moment and looked at the sentence he had just written.

Gui Yuan thought that he had finished copying, so he came up and whispered: "The princess has copied all morning, take a break and use some snacks?" ”

Liu Yan shook his head: "I haven't finished copying it yet, I'll rest after copying this paragraph." ”

Gui Yuan didn't dare to persuade more, so he retreated to the side and served.

When she copied the next sentence, she paused again.

The mind does not dwell in the body, and the body does not dwell in the mind.

In the past, when she turned over the Buddhist scriptures, she only felt that the words above were all in the clouds, and she could not understand a single sentence.

But I don't know why, maybe it's because someone died like this suddenly, she feels that the words in the Buddhist scriptures are not all unreasonable.

"Ozu."

"Yes, what does the princess command?"

Liu Yan didn't actually have any instructions, she asked as if he was talking to himself: "Where do people go when they die?" ”

Will it be like those plays, go to Yin Cao Huangquan? Or will you go to a blissful world without troubles, as the Zen master in the Temple of Mercy and Grace said?

Liu Yan didn't expect Ozu to answer, this person was too taciturn, and Liu Yan sometimes stayed in the study for an hour or two, and he didn't say a word.

But to her surprise, Ozu answered.

"Where the dead go, we only know after death. There are many speculations about living people, but in fact, they are just not at ease, hoping that they will have a good place to go. ”

Liu Yan raised his head: "You mean, are these all living people deceiving themselves?" ”

Ozu shook his head. The new robe made during the Chinese New Year has been changed because of the funeral of the eldest princess, and he is now wearing a cotton robe of six or seven marriages. Such a robe is worn on the little eunuch next to him, which looks bloated and sloppy, and when worn on him, he has an unhurried and calm appearance.

The slave didn't dare to say that. However, it is a consolation to know that the person who has passed away does not die there, and that there is a place to go, no matter where he goes. ”

Liu Yan thought for a while: "You're right. ”

Whether it is copying scriptures, burning paper money, worshipping ancestral halls, and mourning ancestors—in fact, it is all because the living are afraid.

I am afraid that I will die in the future, and I will be forgotten and disappear forever in this world.

Nothing could be scarier than that.

So people want to believe that there is a place for people to go when they die, and there are many different places to go. It doesn't really matter where you go, it's good to go to Elysium, and it's helpless to go to the Netherworld, in short, just have a place to go.

"Your Highness has finished copying it?"

"Hmm. The volume is finished. Liu Yan put the copied scriptures aside: "Take it, I think most of the third sister has also copied it - by the way, Lu Jingxuan should have copied it too, right?" Let's go back and send it away. ”

It was sent to the Temple of Mercy and Grace for enshrinement, and then incinerated.

Sister-in-law, although there are many unsatisfactory places in the Zhu family, copying the scriptures can be regarded as doing their best.

Liu Fang's scripture is not as emotional as Liu Yan, she was just sick, she has no strength in her hands, she has a headache when she picks up the pen, a copy of the scripture is like a crime, and she can't wait to write two words and rest for a moment.

"Princess, if you're too tired, forget it."

"It's okay, I've copied most of it." Give up halfway at this time, aren't all the previous ones written in vain? The sin was in vain?

"Actually, no one will read this thing after copying it, the princess is sick again, so don't write it, what if you are tired and have a fever again?"

"I think the sisters will copy it, but it's not good if I don't copy it alone."

Hearing her say this, Chen Shanggong didn't persuade anymore.

Indeed, if everyone copies everything, it will be difficult to show that none of their princesses will copy.

Chen Shanggong felt that no one would read these copied scriptures of the past life, but they were burned in the temple for a few days, and he was not mistaken, it was like this in the past.

But this time it's different.

The copied scriptures were first handed over to Min Hong, Empress Cao read it, and then the emperor also saw it.

The scriptures copied by the three princesses were placed on the study case.

The third princess was sick, and the handwriting was crooked, and there were inevitably scribble mistakes. The emperor flipped through the paper and instructed the people around him: "What did the imperial doctor say about the third princess?" ”

"The doctor said that because I was tired for days during the New Year, I had a cold attack, and it didn't matter, I would be cured in a few days if I took care of it."

The emperor said: "That's good, go back and reward her with something, so that she can recuperate with peace of mind." ”

"Yes."

Liu Yan's handwriting is much more beautiful than before, looking at this word, it makes people feel the seriousness of the scribe, the pen is calm, and there is a completely different charm from before.

"That's a good copy."

Father-in-law Yao said on the side: "The words of the fourth princess are getting more and more advanced. ”

"Yes, not only the words are good, but also the heart." The emperor's voice was faint: "After all, it's my sister-in-law." ”

Father-in-law Yao didn't dare to say any more.

Gonggong Wen and Wu Shilang just talked back and forth, and just retired.

The emperor has already asked people to summon the eldest prince into the palace.

Father-in-law Yao wanted to avoid it, but he couldn't. Everyone else can avoid it, but he can't.

I'm really afraid of something.

Someone outside announced: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince has arrived." ”

"Let him in."

Father-in-law Yao stepped aside, and the eldest prince had already entered the study, kneeling down and saluting.

The emperor picked up the copy copied by the fifth princess and looked through it, and the eldest prince knelt without shouting.

The eldest prince first raised his head and glanced at the emperor quickly, then lowered his head and knelt without saying a word.

Father-in-law Yao only felt that the silence in this hall made him panic, and his breathing was minimized, for fear of making a little movement.

"Xiao Wu seems to have made progress."
