Chapter 100: The Theory of Heaven

The sky is slim, the red dust is rolling, among all living beings, who is related to the heavenly machine map? Hexagrams cannot be accurately identified, and it is up to them to be searched. The three of them worked hard and tried their best to discuss the solution.

This Tianji map, the map originally showed a gossip, but since it expired, the gossip has disappeared, showing a mountain, a plum, if it weren't for the oath of the ancestors of the past dynasties This is the Tianji map, the three Meishan brothers will not pay attention to it, it is estimated that this picture is placed on the street, and there will not be many people interested. Since they are not afraid of losing it, the three of them finally decided to carry this heavenly machine map down the mountain without finding a way to find a destined person, so that people can see a poem with the inscription, and then maybe someone who is destined will show themselves.

For the sake of prudence, after the three Meishan brothers got the poem, they began to hexagram to confirm which poem had a relationship with the picture, and the final result was this "Half Immortal", their approach naturally caused the dissatisfaction of the president of Guozi Academy, how can there be a hexagram in the selection of poems, which also has the saying that the selection of poems is not related to literature.

The three of them don't care so much, they are old, what's the big deal if they are willful, as soon as they heard Chen Fan finish speaking, the three of them no longer have any doubt in their hearts, anyway, no matter whether others believe it or not, these three people are convinced, and they can't wait to take Chen Fan back to the mountain immediately and inherit what they have learned. As for this Tianji diagram, it is not important to the three of them at all now, in the face of no matter how precious things are, when people reach a certain age, they will not be interested, and the current Tianji diagram, in the eyes of the three Meishan brothers, is a responsibility, and they can't wait to throw it out immediately.

After listening to Chen Fan's speech, Mei San was the first to lose his breath, only to see Mei San clear his throat and say: "Chen Fasheng, it seems that you are related to this picture, please come over after the poetry meeting." ”

"Yes." Chen Fan immediately agreed, although he didn't know what was going on, but Chen Fan's left eye jumped, and this left eye jumped to wealth, which seemed to be a good thing.

said that this last poem, Fan Zheng had also been selected, and immediately showed it to the dean of Guozixue and the three gentlemen of Meishan, this time there was no doubt, and Chen Fan's "Bamboo" was unanimously rated as the top of the list.

In order to show fairness, then Xiao Tong asked people to hang out the first three poems, Chen Fan's, naturally, is the focus of everyone's attention, after seeing the poems written by Chen Fan, whether they are convinced or unconvinced, they either choose to praise or choose silence.

Next door to the East Garden, there is a chrysanthemum garden, where Wu Guifei, the biological mother of King Yuzhang, is drinking tea, appreciating chrysanthemums, and chanting poems with the noblewomen in Beijing. Coming out of the palace today, Wu Guifei also brought Ge Xiurong's daughter, Princess Anji. This Ge Xiurong turned out to be a maid in Wu Guifei's palace, because of her good looks, during Wu Guifei's pregnancy, she was favored by Emperor Wu of Liang and gave birth to Anji. Fortunately, this Ge Xiurong is still a good person, and he is not proud of being favored by Emperor Wu of Liang, and has been bowing down in front of Wu Guifei, plus Wu Guifei also has a big enemy, Ding Guifei, so he gradually tolerated this Ge Xiurong.

Ge Xiurong's daughter Princess Anji is eighteen years old this year, although the woman in the capital got married late, but at this age even if she didn't marry, she had already agreed on her mother-in-law's family, but this Anji, due to her mother's low background, no one in her mother's family, and the status of the princess, the general family must be the reason why she can't look down on her, so she has not found her mother-in-law's family yet, so Ge Xiurong had to ask Wu Guifei to help see if there is a suitable candidate, so there is a chrysanthemum appreciation meeting.

Although Wu Guifei is appreciating chrysanthemums on this side, she has been paying attention to the situation of the poetry club, after each poem comes out, there are slaves and maids who will tell the situation over, and there are female officials around them to copy, and the name of the original author is dropped, and the poem is circulated to a group of female dependents, and the name of Chen Fasheng has also spread among the people.

"This Chen Fasheng is very talented, but it's a pity that he is too young." Mrs. Dong, who knew Wu Guifei's thoughts, said that this Mrs. Dong was a handkerchief friend of Wu Guifei, and her husband was currently Guangluqing, a third-grade official, in charge of the palace portal, and a hundred officials and court meals, etc., and was a close minister of the emperor's side.

In addition to Mrs. Dong, there are three noble ladies who are accompanied, and those who are qualified to sit in this chrysanthemum garden warm pavilion to accompany Wu Guifei are naturally not low, and Mrs. Dong can only accompany them in the last seat, which is still because she and Wu Guifei began to intersect in their early years.

They talked about it, they talked about it, they were all the children of ordinary families in their eyes, like Fang Junxue, the fourth son of the capital, and the children of the big families above the third grade, who were basically ignored by them, and the reason for the verbal statement was very simple, these nobles were the most influential figures in the capital, and they must have discussed it before coming to Ge Xiurong, if it was suitable, it would have been decided a long time ago, but now it has not been decided, it is not suitable. As for the reasons in private, I'm afraid only they know best in their own hearts.

"Who is accompanying this Chen Fasheng?" Wu Guifei asked.

"It's Shen Chong and Sun Mengcheng, both of them are classmates with the prince, Shen Chong is the second son of the Shen Wen family in the imperial history, and Sun Mengcheng is the eldest son of Shang Shulang Sun Hao's family, these two have been with each other since Chen Fasheng came in, and they think they are familiar with each other." The slave who was waiting next to her replied.

"This thing gathers by like, and people are divided by groups, and the talents of these two people are not bad. I just don't know if there is a marriage contract? Mrs. Dong added on the side. In fact, there is another sentence in my heart, the door is not high, but it is also appropriate.

"The concubine has an idea, but I don't know if it's appropriate?" A woman sitting at the top said.

"Tell me about it." Wu Guifei said.

"It's better to ask the prince to bring his classmates over to enjoy the chrysanthemums, just south of the chrysanthemum garden water pavilion, and the female dependents are on the north side of the water pavilion, which does not affect each other, but can talk to each other. Let's also take a look, if there are really young talents, they can be asked to ask, I don't know what the mother wants? "This social atmosphere is extremely open, and although the status of women is not as good as that of modern society, it is also relatively free, so this noblewoman's proposal does not violate the etiquette of the time, and everyone does not think it is abrupt.

"It's okay, according to Madame's opinion." Just let Tong'er meet the girl, this time they are all nobles from the capital, if there is a match, you can discuss. Wu Guifei thought of her son and immediately ordered someone to pass it on.

"Fa Sheng, you have to help me." Shen Chong, who got the news, pulled Chen Fan aside and whispered.

"What?"

"Xiao Tong wants to take us classmates to the chrysanthemum garden, I guess I want to make a poem, do you have a good poem to appreciate the chrysanthemum, help me write one? If I have the favor of any of my daughters, I will never forget your kindness today. Originally, Shen Chong also prepared a poem to appreciate chrysanthemums, but when I saw Chen Fanzuo today, I knew that I couldn't compare, so I immediately sought the Tao.

"Well, 'not afraid of the wind and frost to bully the night, the time has been adjusted to open the flowers alone. The cupola incense array penetrates Jiankang, and the city is full of golden armor'. Immediately, Chen Fan combined the poems of the Ming Dynasty poet Gao Qi and the Tang Dynasty Huang Chao to write chrysanthemums, and the place name in the original poem was changed from Chang'an to Jiankang, and was chanted to Shen Chong, after all, Shen Chong is his own relative, and this favor still needs to be helped. If Sun Mengcheng is replaced, there will be no door.

"Thank you." Shen Chong, who got the poem, was full of joy and left.

Chen Fan came to the pavilion as promised, and the three deans of Guozixue had left together with Xiao Tong's farewell, but Master Fan and the three gentlemen of Meishan were there. Seeing that the four masters were there, Chen Fan straightened his clothes and stepped into the pavilion.

"The stars rotate, the sun and the moon pass together, the four times are royal, the yin and yang are magnified, the wind and rain are blessed, all things have their own harmony to live, each has its own nourishment, and see its merits without seeing its things, the husband is called God; Everyone knows why it is made, but I don't know that it is invisible, and the husband is the sky. Fan Zheng read quickly and quickly, and at the same time performed the Great Law of Cause and Effect, and the sound rolled out of this pavilion, but it did not overflow outside the pavilion at all.

"How daring!" Mei San's eyes widened angrily.

"Damn!" Mei Er's hair was furious.

"Sancai!" Mei Da concentrated.

The voice entered the body, Chen Fan felt like a long drought and nectar, and it was just like an initiation, his mind was suddenly generous and bright, the pages of the book in the sky flashed away, and a person sat in his mind, looking like a child who was only five or six years old, but his facial features, body, and limbs were sound, and his body was glowing with white light, Chen Fan was about to take a closer look, only to feel that the surroundings suddenly vibrate, the child disappeared, and Chen Fan's consciousness returned to the pavilion.

I saw that the faces of the three gentlemen of Meishan were slightly red, and although Master Fan had a smile on the corner of his mouth, his forehead was sweating, what Chen Fan didn't know was that these four people didn't seem to move, but just now, a thrilling battle of divine consciousness had been carried out, which could be described as a defeat for both sides.

"Why are you doing this?" Mei said.

"You three still have time, but I'm old. Heaven shows that my Confucianism is thriving, but there are many crises, life and death, and I have sacrificed my body, so what's the matter. ”

"What Brother Fan said is extremely true, how can you retreat from the battle of the Great Dao? Even if you give up your body, what does it matter? I want you to teach Confucianism and Xunmen, and there are many talents, but my disciples are withering, how can the inheritance of the master be cut off in my hands? Besides, the heavenly machine shows that I have to come, I can't help but come, and I hope Brother Fan will forgive me. "I am acting in accordance with the command of heaven, how can I retreat? What's the harm of being cause and effect? Fan Zheng can give up himself, why can't I? In an instant, Mei Da had made up his mind in his heart, the three brothers had the same mind, Mei Er and Mei San knew that they could not be admonished, and their hatred rose sharply in their hearts.

Just now Fan Zheng read is not an ordinary scripture, but the supreme study of Confucianism and Taoism Xunmen "Treatise on Heaven", Confucianism and Taoism are mainly divided into Confucius, Mengmen and Xunmen, this "Treatise of Heaven" is the sage Xunzi preached, palm cause and effect, through the way of heaven, cultivation to the realm, can be a word into a prophecy, words follow the law. What Fan Zheng read was the general outline of the "Theory of Heaven", although there was only one paragraph, but it was broad and profound, pointing directly to the avenue of heaven and earth.

Fan Zheng is not an ordinary recitation, but he has performed the Dafa of cause and effect, and if he gets into his ears, he will have cause and effect with him, and if he practices according to this method, while increasing his cultivation, the cause and effect owed to him will be deeper. Originally, the three gentlemen of Meishan, as long as they withdrew from the pavilion now, the cause and effect would disappear, but the three gentlemen of Meishan sensed in the dark that if they retreated like this, they would die if they wanted Chen Fan to inherit their inheritance, so they decided not to retreat.

Fan Zheng did not respond to Mei Da, but said to Chen Fan: "Chen Fasheng, just now I read the Confucian and Taoist treasure book "The Treatise on Heaven", this canon can be cultivated to sanctification, the primordial spirit entrusts the void, immortal and immortal, are you interested in practicing?" ”

"It's a pity that the flesh is gray, how can you live with heaven and earth, and come at ease?" Without waiting for Chen Fan to speak, Mei San spoke beside him.
