Chapter Seventy-Eight: Princess Yicheng and the Relic
Sun Simiao went to see Empress Xiao, whether it was for this hard-working woman to diagnose and treat the disease, or if there were other things, Liang Baoyu and his brother did not know.
The brother didn't have the mood to inquire, this woman was a big trouble in itself, if she really carried that treasure on her body, it would not be a trouble, then it would become a huge whirlpool, a whirlpool that would lose her life if she was not careful.
However, Liang Baoyu suddenly remembered that before coming to the grassland, Sun Simiao had mentioned that Lao Dao was willing to join the army to meet an old man.
I don't know if Empress Xiao is the old man Sun Simiao wants to see?
Liang Baoyu didn't bother to inquire about this kind of gossip between old men and old ladies, but Jieli's wife was escorted back to the camp and caused a bustle, and he couldn't watch it or not.
Princess Yicheng, the daughter of Emperor Wen of Sui in the previous dynasty, married four Turkic khans successively, and even gave advice to Jieli Koubian, I don't know how many Han people were killed indirectly.
Liang Baoyu doesn't know what to say about this Princess Yicheng, who is also a hard-working woman, she is the princess of the former Sui, helping the Turks fight the Tang Dynasty to avenge their lost dynasty, which seems to be in the past.
This is a chaotic era, before the real rise of the Tang Dynasty, all kinds of unbelievable people and unbelievable situations seem to be able to find ways to justify themselves.
Li Jing wanted to publicly execute Princess Yicheng because she killed 4,000 Tang troops.
For such a charge, Princess Yicheng did not defend herself, but asked Li Jing, you are an old minister of the former Sui, why don't you worship this princess when you see it?
Under the entanglement of historical events, even if it is the blood of the royal family, it is just a dead leaf on the turbulent river.
In the end, Princess Yicheng asked to give her the last dignity, enjoy the treatment that the royal blood should have, and wanted to bake a fire before dying to warm her cold body and soul.
This request was allowed, Li Jing ordered a huge bonfire to be lit, and under the watchful eyes of countless soldiers in the camp, Sun Simiao took the initiative to walk out of the crowd and talk to Princess Yicheng, who was about to have her head cut off.
understood, the old man Sun Simiao came to the grassland to see was not Queen Xiao, but the princess of the former Sui.
Liang Baoyu can even imagine in his mind the scene where the old Taoist priest met this princess when he was young, the world is impermanent, but that's it.
Under the stunned gaze of everyone, the old Tao was Sun Simiao who untied the shackles and shackles on Princess Yicheng's body, and then let the princess, who retained the noble blood of the former Sui, pounce into the huge bonfire like a moth.
"She said she was dirty and wanted to wash it off with flames......
Facing Liang Baoyu, who directly crossed the crowd to protect Sun Simiao, the old Taoist priest had tears in the corners of his eyes, and his whole body exuded indescribable pathos.
"In front of Daochang Sun, who dares to make a mistake?"
Facing Li Jing's personal guards who subconsciously rushed over, Liang Baoyu did not retreat at all, "The demon queen has already surrendered to the law, isn't this better than cutting off the head?" ”
Li Jing couldn't take care of Sun Simiao's affairs, not to mention that Liang Baoyu's brother and his own guards confronted each other, and even drew half of the knife, Li Jing waved his hand and announced that the demon queen of the Turkic Khan Jieli was ambushed!
A huge cheer sounded, and the Tang soldiers present didn't care about what kind of experience the woman who took the initiative to throw herself into the bonfire had, they only knew that it was this demon queen who killed her Pao Ze brothers!
When the bonfire went out, Liang Baoyu and his brother helped Sun Simiao collect the ashes, and something strange happened.
Princess Yicheng actually left two relics!
The main thing is that Sun Simiao, who is still in great grief, can't help but be surprised!
"That's not right, isn't this thing only burned by those eminent monks and great virtues who have attained the Tao?"
"Could it be that this Princess Yicheng also believed in Buddhism during her lifetime?"
"Shut up! It's because the bonfire is too big, the temperature is too high, and the fever is too long, so this kind of thing will appear, so let's put away the princess's ashes first, and let's go back and talk slowly. ”
Princess Yicheng's ashes are housed in an ornate bottle, which is made of silver, covered with intricate patterns outlined in gold wire, and inlaid with many precious stones, worthy of the status of a princess.
Back in Liang Baoyu's tent, Sun Simiao, Yu Chi Baolin, and Cheng Chu looked at Liang Baoyu silently, and it really seemed to reveal the cause of the relics in his words just now.
The relics are extremely rare treasures in the Tang Dynasty and for a very long time in the future, representing the beautiful meaning of peace and driving away disasters, and are called Buddha treasures by Buddhism.
Many monks, Buddhist disciples, and even ordinary people have always believed that only after the attained monk has completed the meritorious sitting, there is a very small probability that there will be a Buddha treasure such as a relic.
Once a relic appears, the Buddha Gate will build a special stupa for worship.
"Don't look at me like that, I've only heard of it, and I don't have to be real...... Anyone's bones can be relicted after a certain period of time if they are roasted with a flame at a high enough temperature. ”
The wave of informatization in later generations continues to wash everyone's nerves, even the most ordinary people will inadvertently get a lot of strange knowledge, Liang Baoyu once saw a bastard with a high-temperature spray gun to roast the bones of a pig, so as to pour out a relic!
On that occasion just now, Li Jing ordered a bonfire, even if there was no shortage of fuel in the camp, the soldiers also brought a lot of huge wood, and what's more, in order to make the wood burn quickly and make the bonfire appear more lively, those bastards actually spilled two jars of medical distilled spirit!
With the blessing of the two parties, it may be the reason why Princess Yicheng was able to leave two relics.
"That's the thing, I can't guarantee the ticket if it's true or not, Dao Chief, people die like lights going out, instead of exploring the secrets behind the relics, you might as well chant the scriptures for Her Royal Highness the princess."
"I don't need you to dictate the poor things yet!"
As a religious person, Sun Simiao, who had the idea of what to expect, snorted angrily and left with a gorgeous bottle, in fact, Lao Dao was very open, but this did not prevent Lao Dao from looking at anyone unpleasantly at the moment.
"Old eight, according to what you said, that is, what kind of bones should have a chance to burn relics?"
Cheng Chumo, whose focus is obviously different, has a pair of thief eyes, and Liang Baoyu is a little panicked.
"I remember when I took the blood of Chu Mo to continue his life, you once said that the Qiang people are also people, and the blood of the Qiang people is also human blood...... If that's the case, the bones of the beard can also burn relics! ”
Yu Chi Baolin looked excited, these two guys who are not afraid of heaven and earth obviously want to go together!
"Don't worry, Daochang Sun is gone, let's talk and discuss...... Actually, human bones are not necessarily needed! ”
