Chapter 375: Accumulating virtue and doing good

Mrs. Lou stood outside the study, as if she had evoked something sad, and her eyes contained tears. Vertex updates are the fastest

Stare for a long time.

Finally, he lifted the corner of his eye, and sighed secretly.

Lead Gu Allure in.

Walking into the study, Gu Tingcheng looked at the empty study and said with emotion:

"Madam, I heard that after Lou Sikong left, you were afraid of seeing things and thinking about people, so you burned all the books here. I didn't expect Mrs. to be very affectionate to Lou Sikong. ”

Mrs. Lou looked at Gu Qingcheng in astonishment.

Her stunned expression made Gu Qingcheng even more suspicious.

Madame is so sensitive to the topic of these books, does she really know anything?

Mrs. Lou was stunned for a moment, and then said indifferently:

"Yes, the man is gone, and leaving anything behind him will only add to the sadness. It's better to burn it clean with a fire. ”

The tone is not without desolation.

"Mrs. Lou and her husband are deeply affectionate, before the big boss leaves, is there nothing unfinished to explain to Mrs.?" Gu Qingcheng asked casually again.

Mrs. Lou looked at Gu Qingcheng even more shocked, and after a while, she suddenly smiled and said:

"Miss Feng is not an ordinary doctor, right?"

"Oh, don't be alarmed, ma'am, I have no ill will." Gu Qingcheng smiled.

After a pause, he said slowly:

"I just heard that Lord Lou did not die of illness, but committed suicide. Here, if Lou Sikong has any grievances, Mrs. should ask the Criminal Department to help investigate. ”

"You're not Feng Tingguo."

Mrs. Lou's tone was a little surprised, her eyes were like torches, and she fell quietly on Gu Qingcheng's face.

Immediately, he said in a calm tone:

"Of course, the old body knows that you are not a bad person, and you will not have the intention to harm the old body.

But you didn't come here just to buy a house, did you? ”

"Madame, you"

Gu Tingcheng pondered:

Mrs. Lou is so sensitive and vigilant, if she wants to know something from her mouth and does not reveal her identity, it should be difficult to get her wish.

was hesitating when Gu Qingcheng was hesitating to tell Mrs. Lou his true identity.

Mrs. Lou suddenly bowed, knelt in front of Gu Qingcheng, and saluted her respectfully.

"The old body has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, the so-called Miss Feng Tingguo, isn't it, the world-famous county lord of Anping, Gu Tingcheng?"

Mrs. Lou was surprised and delighted.

"Madame has been distressed, I am indeed Gu Chengcheng."

Gu Qingcheng hurriedly helped Mrs. Lou up.

Again:

"Anyway, madam, you are an elder, just a courtesy. Such a big gift, Allure can't afford it. ”

"The old body is really not mistaken, it turns out that you are really the county lord of Anping. No wonder the old body can come back to life. Mrs. Lou cried with joy, "The county lord is gracious and recreated, this ceremony, the county lord can afford ......"

Gu Qingcheng helped Mrs. Lou wipe her tears.

Holding her and smiling:

"Madame's eyes are like torches, but I didn't expect that in just one or two sentences, Mrs. will see through the true identity of Allure."

Mrs. Lou looked at Gu Tingcheng with great affection, and said with emotion:

"Actually, the old body has been suspicious for a long time. The county lord is noble, not only has superb medical skills, but also has the appearance of a country and a city.

Let's ask how in the world, how can there be two such incredible characters in the same place at the same time. ”

"Mrs. Lou is overrated."

Mrs. Lou shook her head again and smiled bitterly: "Before, it was the old body that had no eyes. ”

Such a fairy-like county lord, how can she have this blessing in the third child.

"Please don't blame Madame, I concealed my identity before Allure and came in disguise, because I was afraid of bringing unnecessary harm to Lou Sikong's descendants."

Gu Tingcheng said apologetically.

"The county lord doesn't have to blame himself, no matter what the county lord's intentions are, after all, the county lord saved the old man, who is terminally ill."

Mrs. Lou looked at Gu Qingcheng gratefully.

nodded silently and said, "Your girl said it well that day, old man, she did meet a nobleman." ”

"Madam, Allure is just a gesture, not enough to worry about."

After all, Gu Tingcheng felt guilty in his heart, he came with a purpose.

Mrs. Lou groaned slightly, nodded and said:

"If the old man expected it to be good, the county lord, I'm afraid it was for the case of the prince back then, right?

It's a pity that the old body really doesn't know anything. Even if the old man wants to be grateful to the county lord, I'm afraid he won't be able to help the county lord with anything. ”

"Lou Da Sikong has always respected his wife, before leaving, didn't he explain anything to his wife?"

Gu Qingcheng's eyebrows frowned.

Mrs. Lou shook her head and sighed:

"The county lord is benevolent and virtuous, and the world is talking about it, and your deeds have long been passed down as a good story.

Before the old body saw the county lord's face, he already liked the county lord very much.

Now the county lord is old, and he has more life-saving grace. The old man knew everything to the county lord, and he said everything.

The first husband never revealed the affairs of officialdom to the old body, let alone other concubines.

He has always said that officialdom is a battlefield without gunpowder. The women's family is only in charge of the house, and cannot interfere in politics.

If you want your family to be safe, you can protect yourself and stay out of the matter, so that your life is safe.

He is in charge of the great office, and the account books he records, I don't know if he really wronged the prince, or if it is true.

At that time, His Majesty had sent someone to arrest the late husband, strictly investigated it thoroughly, and turned the mansion upside down, but no other account books were found.

Soon after the death of the crown prince, the first husband was released and returned home. We thought that everything would be calm, but who knows, the late husband had the idea of suicide. ”

Mrs. Lou adjusted her emotions a little, and continued:

Before he left, he did explain to the old man that if he had any accidents, he would burn all the books in the house in front of the neighbors, so as not to make the Loufu family have no peace.

If anyone wants to come and inquire about anything, tell them to accumulate virtue and do good, and good will be rewarded for good, and evil will be rewarded.

Unexpectedly, after the husband explained these words, the next day, he threw himself in this small Buddha hall. ”

Mrs. Lou had tears in her eyes, looking at the beams on the small Buddha hall, and the tragic situation of Lou Da Sikong hanging was floating in front of her.

“…… Lou Da Sikong, is it here that he casts? Gu Tingcheng was quite surprised.

Looking at the beams on the Buddha hall, I couldn't help but think of Tuoba Yu's mother.

"Yes, the first husband is here."

Mrs. Lou looked at the beam of the house sadly.

And he said sadly:

"So after the husband left, even this small Buddha hall was almost ...... old Don't set a step. ”

"No wonder this place is covered with dust, think that every time Mrs. comes to this small Buddha hall, she will touch the scene, and think of the appearance of Lou Da Sikong before leaving." Gu Tingcheng Road.

Look at the beams of the house, it's next to the east wall, that is, in front of the Zen painting.

Before Lou Da Sikong died, he watched his own Zen words, right?

Mrs. Lou nodded, and said:

After the first husband left, the old man moved all the books in the house to the street and burned them clean in front of the neighbors.

After the death of his first husband, others began to talk about him committing suicide in fear of sin, saying that he framed the prince and committed suicide under guilt.

Some people also talked about His Majesty being annoyed that he killed the prince and forced him to commit suicide to apologize.

In any case, the crown prince died after all because of the ledger he recorded.

After the death of the first husband, few people dared to deal with the building.

No, even Ge Shooting will not allow anyone from Lou Mansion to participate.

People go to tea and cool, and the famous Dasikong Mansion at the beginning, just like that, suddenly declined......"

Mrs. Lou was finally angry.

“…… Then, after Lou Dasi left, did anyone come to Mrs. to inquire about the account books or something? Gu Tingcheng asked again.

Mrs. Lou nodded and said:

"Yes, there are really a few before and after.

There are people from the government's criminal department who come to investigate, there are also people from the prince's mansion, and there are masked people at night, holding knives on the old man's neck and questioning. ”

After a pause, Mrs. Lou raised her sleeves to wipe her tears, and then sighed:

"But the old body really doesn't know anything, and only tells the people who come that the last words of the late husband are to accumulate virtue and do good, otherwise good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil."

"Accumulate virtue and do good?" Gu Qingcheng said silently.

I looked at the Zen phrase on the wall again, and there was a sentence in it:

Accumulate virtue and do good deeds to lead the way.

Lou Dasi kept saying that he wanted people to accumulate virtue and do good, and he chose to commit suicide in this small Buddhist hall.

More rely on this Zen language.

Could it be that he really has some guilt in his heart? Or is there a hint of something?

According to Mrs. Lou's performance, it seems that Lou Da Sikong really didn't leave anything for Mrs. Lou.

The dusty kneeling mats in the Buddha hall have also been shaken clean.

Gu Tingcheng walked over, knelt on the cushion in the center, and slowly paid homage to Maitreya Buddha.

The smiling Maitreya Buddha pointed at her with a wonderful lotus in his hand, as if spreading the gospel to her.

Mrs. Lou also came over and worshiped together in front of Maitreya Buddha, saying:

"The Buddha is not strange, after the first husband left, the old body and mind were discouraged, and he was sick and sick, and he did not come for a long time, which made the Buddha contaminated with dust.

But the Buddha is in the heart, the old body and mind, and he always has the heart of accumulating virtue and doing good. ”

After they knelt down and worshiped Maitreya Buddha, Mrs. Gu Chengcheng Fulou got up.

"Madam, it's rare that you burned all the books, but you still left these landscape paintings and this Zen language in the study. These calligraphy and paintings can only be preserved by luck. ”

Mrs. Lou looked at this study and said with emotion:

"Regardless of whether the books in the house were valuable or not, none of them were left at that time, and all of them were burned.

Some calligraphy and paintings of celebrities that were slightly more valuable were also sold in antique shops at that time.

These paintings in the study are graffiti scribbled by children when they were young, and no one appreciates them, and there is no harm, so they have been hanging in the study. ”

Mrs. Lou remembered that she was on the street, in front of her neighbors, burning books and selling valuable calligraphy and paintings, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.

Gu Tingcheng looked at the Zen language on the wall, and asked again:

"Madam, I don't know if this Zen language was written by the master of the Dao?"

“…… What is this written by a man of the great way? Mrs. Lou smiled bitterly.

looked at the Zen language, and sighed with emotion:

This Zen language was improvised by the late husband two years ago, saying that it was enlightened by the Buddha.

According to the old body, it is not poetry or scriptures, and it is not bullshit at all.

It is also rare that before he died, he knew how to persuade people to accumulate virtue and do good, even for the sake of future generations, and to commemorate his late husband, so he retained it. ”

Gu Tingcheng casually asked the process housekeeper that day, it turned out that this was really written by Lou Sikong.

"Has Da Sikong always believed in Buddhism?"

Gu Tingcheng followed Mrs. Lou's gaze, and then carefully looked at the Zen language.

Mrs. Lou pondered for a long time before she said:

"Well, I used to believe in Buddhism. It's just that before, His Majesty exterminated the Buddha on a large scale, and there were almost no temples to go to.

Later, many people set up small Buddha halls at home, and His Majesty did not prohibit it.

It was originally a living room, but three years ago, after her husband was promoted to the Great Sikong, she was erected to thank the Buddha, and later it became a small Buddha hall. ”

"Oh, that's right." Gu Tingcheng looked thoughtful, "That is to say, this small Buddha hall was set up after Lord Lou became the chief secretary?" ”

Three years ago, Lord Lou was recommended by Tuoba Yu to be the great Sikong, and a year later, Prince Huang was reported for greedy ink, and there was this small Buddha hall in the middle.

Could it be that he planned to kill the prince early in the morning, but after all, he was ashamed in his heart, so he set up this small Buddha hall.

Want to alleviate your sins?

If the prince's greed for ink is purely imaginary, then a large amount of money, those deficits of silver.

Where did they go?

Could it be that Lou Da Sikong is greedy for ink but framed the prince?

Mrs. Lou doesn't seem to know anything, so where did Lou Sikong hide the silver?

Is there an outer room outside Lou Wangzhi?

It's impossible!

If he was deliberately arranged by Tuoba Yu to frame the crown prince, he knew that Tuoba Yu could harm the prince's brother, and he would not show mercy to him as a pawn, right?

He can be a big boss, and he is not an ordinary person.

Is he really, unsparing?

Two years ago, was it really a meditation on Zen without other profound meanings?

Gu Tingcheng glanced at the Zen language again, and said silently:

Looking at flowers in the fog, I begged for it

When the clouds open and see the sun

Accumulate virtue and do good deeds to lead the way

When the clouds open, the earth is broken, and the dragon is born

Looking at flowers in the fog and seeking in pain: Can it be understood that others are looking for flowers in the fog, and they can't see the truth clearly, and their efforts are in vain?

When the clouds open and see the sun: Do you understand why the sun can clear the clouds and mist and see the blue sky, and once the snow is revealed?

Accumulating virtue and doing good deeds to guide the way?

Gu Tingcheng looked at Maitreya Buddha, Maitreya Buddha did hold a wonderful lotus in his hand, guiding the front, and the position in front of him was the place where he knelt and worshipped.

Lou Da Sikong did not confess other special things before he died, but he asked people to accumulate virtue and do good.

Does it have anything to do with this sentence of accumulating virtue and doing good deeds to guide the Buddha?

Is there only one sentence at the center of the whole Zen poem?

And where the Buddha is pointing, is there a hidden truth?

Yunkai breaks the ground and turns into a dragon: Is it because you want to clear the clouds and know the truth, you have to break the ground?

Breaking ground in this pointer?

Yunkai breaks the ground and turns into a dragon, and the dragon refers to the son of heaven and the dragon.

Gu Qingcheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration: The prince is the son of the dragon!

Could it be that this Zen saying is really related to the prince?

This Zen phrase hangs on the east wall.

East?

East Palace?

Prince?

Lou Da Sikong hanged himself here, just for those who want to find the truth, what kind of hint?

“…… Is there anything else you'd like to know, Lord County? ”

Mrs. Lou looked at Gu Qingcheng, who had been out of her mind for a while, and asked with a smile.

Gu Tingcheng woke up suddenly, was he too cranky?

This may have been the Zen language that Lou Da Sikong came up with, and he was thought of by himself as a mystery?

Even if you want to break the ground, it's someone's house, and it's not easy to casually propose to dig someone's Buddhist hall.

That's disrespectful.

Wrong!

It's just a big disrespect, and ordinary people didn't think of digging other people's Buddhist halls.

This matter had to be discussed with Tuoba and carried out quietly.

“…… Oh, no, let's go. Gu Qingcheng said.

glanced back at the small Buddha hall again, and then left with Mrs. Lou.

Before leaving the study, Gu Tingcheng said cautiously:

"Madam, regarding my identity and the matter of your treatment, Madame is better to keep it a secret.

Madame said that a masked man had put a knife on your neck and asked if there were any ledgers.

I'm worried about what kind of wicked people those masked people are, don't let it hurt my wife and her family. ”

"Okay, the old body understands." Mrs. Lou nodded.

Gu Qingcheng said in his heart:

His Majesty sent people to look for him, and he also tortured Lou Da Sikong, and later a masked man came to look for him.

Those masked people may be the people behind the scenes who instructed Lou Wangzhi to marry the prince?

But even those people behind the scenes can't find other account books, is it true that Lou Da Sikong really has no other account books?

And most importantly, where did the huge money that was greedy for ink go?

Is it gone?
