Chapter 059: Relics

In the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong, Li Pu stared at the golden Red Gold Maitreya Buddha a little dumbfounded.

He rolled his sleeves, circled around the Buddha statue, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said to Li Taiwei:

"Third child, you are really ruthless, you are digging the treasure of Prince Chun's mansion!"

I heard that this golden Buddha was originally the first concubine's dowry, when Prince Chun got married, the first concubine passed on the treasures in the private treasury to Prince Chun and his wife, among which this red gold Maitreya is the most precious.

This Maitreya is simple and cute, and his eyebrows and eyes are warm. It weighs about ten pounds, and it is made of pure gold, a craft that was lost in the previous dynasty, and there is only one in the Great Zhou.

I heard that Princess Chunqing originally planned to wait for the Ming prince to get married, so she gave this heirloom to his husband and wife, who would have thought that with a slip of his hand, he fell into the pocket of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion in a blink of an eye.

Looking at Li Pu's stunned look, Mrs. Li pinched a piece of osmanthus cake slightly, raised her eyebrows and said:

"If you don't dig a piece of Prince Chun's heart, how do you know that our Zhongyong Marquis Mansion is not easy to mess with?"

Li Pu nodded, deeply convinced.

But this golden object is not suitable for him to put in a young man's room, and his mother does not know about this matter today, if she is allowed to see this golden Buddha, maybe how to hurt her spirits.

Li Pu made a difficulty, glanced at Li Taiwei, and said:

"This ...... This golden Buddha is so valuable, but it is not suitable to be placed in my house......."

Although this golden Buddha is valuable, after all, it is the first concubine's thing, and it is so eye-catching, he can't get it to the pawnshop to exchange it for silver flowers, isn't this a slap in the face of Prince Chun's mansion? But it is a swaggering ornament in his own room, which is obviously not very suitable.

Mrs. Li smiled, wiped the pastry crumbs on her hands with a handkerchief, and said:

"If you are in the way, I will run an errand for you and send it to Grandmother Hua'an Tang, and by the way, I will tell Grandmother about today's matter for you, so that she will not talk about you in the future."

When Li Pu heard this, his eyebrows widened, and he said with a smile:

"Third brother, my brother gave up his life for you today, you have to remember your brother's goodness!"

Mrs. Li rolled her eyes at him:

"You still have the face to say? It's just these miscellaneous pieces, which almost make you lose face! ”

"Go back and ask my father to arrange two guards for you, and when you go out in the future, you will have more eyes, how old you are, and you can still tell people to be deceived in a few words!"

Li Pu choked, but he couldn't refute it, so he sent Li Taiwei out of the house.

Dafu held the Golden Buddha in one hand and followed Li Taiwei to Hua'an Hall.

When I arrived at Mrs. Li's place, it was already the time to hold the lamp, and Grandma Sun had just set the meal, and when she saw Mrs. Li coming over, she greeted her in surprise:

"Why is this time coming? Ready for dinner? ”

Mrs. Li smiled and called out to Grandma Sun.

Old Madam Li had just come out of the inner room, and she was also surprised when she saw Mrs. Li coming over at this time.

"Why is Sister Wei here? But what happened? ”

Mrs. Li stepped forward to ask for peace, helped Mrs. Li to sit down on the soft collapse, and explained in detail about today's affairs with Prince Chun's mansion, and asked Dafu to present the golden Buddha.

Mrs. Li heard the sound of the cane:

"Prince Chun's Mansion can raise such a son, it's really a shame for his ancestors!"

As soon as Mrs. Li spoke, she remembered that Prince Chun's Mansion was the same sect as the current Shengshang, and she couldn't help coughing twice to cover it up, and pointed to the golden Buddha in Dafu's hand, and said to Mrs. Li in a whisper:

"Can we still lack this money in our house? What do you want to do with this? ”

Mrs. Li stroked her grandmother's back and smoothed her breath, and her eyes lit up:

"Grandmother, have you heard of the Great Relic?"

Old Madam Li was stunned for a moment, and said with a wooden face:

"How can the name of the great monk be mentioned at will?"

After that, Mrs. Li hurriedly folded her hands and prayed Amitabha Buddha in her mouth.

This Dayan monk was originally a monk who attained enlightenment a hundred years ago, and legend has it that after his death, he left a red relic, which was regarded as a treasure by the Buddhists!

It is rumored that this treasure was enshrined in a royal temple a hundred years ago and later destroyed in a war. After the beginning of the new dynasty, there was no longer see this relic in the world, there were rumors that the relics won the world, this great relics did not appear, it can be seen that the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty could not have the mandate of heaven, so the first emperor was very distressed.

At this moment, Li Taiwei suddenly mentioned this great relic...... Mrs. Li came over at this time, frowned and asked:

"Why did Sister Wei suddenly mention this Buddha relic?"

Mrs. Li's eyes flashed slightly, pointing to this golden Buddha and said:

"When I was in Xiliang, I accidentally found an ancient book in my uncle's library, and there was a record about the Great Yan Relic on it, saying that this thing was not damaged by the war, but asked the internal guard to secretly store it in the Golden Buddha and smuggle it out of the palace with other treasures."

"The style and size of the Golden Buddha are recorded in the book, and I see that it is somewhat consistent with this Maitreya in Prince Chun's mansion. I also heard that the first concubine was born in Jiangmen, and her house was ordered to seal up many pawnshops in the capital, and I guess this golden Buddha may be related to the inner court of the former dynasty. ”

Old Madam Li was taken aback, her eyes widened and she looked at the golden Buddha carefully, and her voice trembled a little:

Is that true? If...... If there really is such a treasure hidden inside, it will be terrible! ”

Mrs. Li nodded slightly and said:

"This matter is still just a granddaughter's speculation, I remember that my grandmother often went to Fahua Temple to incense, if you have time, you can bring this golden Buddha, let Puhui preside over take a closer look, if there is really this treasure hidden in it, we need to tell the palace as soon as possible."

Mrs. Li thought about it for a while, and felt that what Li Taiwei said was not unreasonable, it was just a hard trip to Fahua Temple, and the house was restless recently, and she was going to go to the temple to worship. But if you really get such an opportunity and find the Buddha's relics from Maitreya, this is a great achievement for the Li family!

Mrs. Li didn't dare to delay, so she asked Grandma Sun to arrange the carriage and leave the city at dawn tomorrow.

Mrs. Li asked the concierge to arrange a lot of guards to escort Mrs. Li and her party, and the grandmother who provoked her praised her again, and even Mrs. Li's face was dyed with satisfaction, leaving Mrs. Li to eat in Hua'an Hall, and after talking for a while, she was asked to go out of the courtyard.

Dafu received a good reward from Mrs. Li today, and happily touched the money bag that was bulging on her waist, and smiled and bent her eyes.

"The county lord is amazing! More powerful than the gods! ”

Li Taiwei listened to Daifuku's sycophants, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile.

The secret of this golden Buddha was accidentally discovered when she ordered someone to raid Prince Chun's mansion in her previous life, and even Lu Xiao, the old widower, didn't know about the fact that this relic was hidden in the golden Buddha. Thinking of his surprised and confused look when he heard that he had asked for such a golden Buddha today, Li Taiwei's mood was much more relaxed.

In her previous life, she climbed to a high position by herself, and in this life, she ...... She will definitely be able to push the Li family to a higher position!

"County Lord......"

Outside the moon gate, there was a maidservant, looking at Li Taiwei with a panicked expression, and whispered:

"Slave Bai Tao, the eldest young grandmother asked the county lord to come to Qiutang Courtyard, the eldest young master has just returned to the house......"

Mrs. Li looked down and leaned over to the maid.
