Zhao Ran is not talking about specific Taoist scriptures, not Taoism, Taoism, and Jiao rituals, but about the inheritance of Taoism, the difference between learning and art, and the question of what Taoism is.

Being able to preach Taoism to the monks in the Tianlong Monastery as a Taoist monk is also the first time that the Tianlong Monastery has been established for more than 500 years, but unfortunately it is not an official preaching, otherwise it is enough to go down in the history of Buddhism.

Although there were only more than a dozen monks who listened to the lecture, Zhao Ran was also proud!

After the lecture was finished, the monks in the Bodhi Hall joined together and sent Zhao Ran away.

In the next few days, the monks who were allowed to come to visit the official post increased one after another, including Mingjue, Wenda, Yangfan and other monks often came to Zhao Ran to ask for advice, and Zhang Juzheng, who lived next to him, was very surprised that the monks came to Zhao Ran to ask for Taoist teachings, so he also joined the ranks of listening to the lectures.

On the seventh day, Zhao Ran was invited to participate in the Xuanci Master Tubi Puja. On that day, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the drizzle was sprinkled with cow hair, and Mingjue said that this was the image of heaven and earth that was born of induction.

Countless monks, magnates, good men and women came to Tianlong Courtyard to send off Xuanci Hongti.

According to the last wish arrangement in the letter sent by Master Xuanci to Wenyin and others before leaving, the rainbow body will be incinerated, and the relics will be handed over to Tianlong Yuan for disposal. This is an act of great compassion and is praised by Buddhism.

At noon, Master Xuanci, who had been offered for seven days, sat upright in the Buddhist shrine and was carried out by four monks of Taici Temple, including Guangfa and Guangzhen. Eighteen monks in the front and eighteen monks in the back, each holding an umbrella, an incense burner, a lotus lamp, a flower cage, a wish, a whisk and other things to serve on the side, Xuan Sheng held a ring plate in front of him, and the plate was placed on the golden bowl of Master Xuanci's enlightenment.

The queue came out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall and headed west along the main street of Xingqing, bypassing the rippling blue waters of Jinbo Lake, where the willows swayed their branches in the wind, as if they were also bidding farewell to Xuan Ci.

The brigade went out of the west gate and headed for Tallinn outside the city.

On both sides of the road from the city to Tallinn from Tianlong Temple, the monks of the major temples set out together, standing beside the road and reciting scriptures. Behind them, there were hundreds of thousands of Xingqing people and surrounding people, all of whom spontaneously came to see off Xuanci Hongti.

Tallinn is not far from the city, only more than two miles away, and after entering, more monks and believers gathered in front of the Tubi field, all waiting silently.

Guangfa, Guangzhen and other disciples of Taici Temple carried the Buddha shrine forward, passed through the crowd, and placed the Buddha altar on the Tubi altar that had already been erected. Led by Master Xuansheng, the monks of Taici Temple placed the golden bowl in front of Xuanci's knees, and bowed down with sincerity and incense in turn.

Master Yinguang presided over the Dharma on behalf of Buddhism, and he said with a cane: "Cut to life and death, cold and summer, its coming is also in the sky, and its going is also clear to the sea, and there is a new Nirvana enlightenment on the same day as the great monk Xuanci, and the fate of this is exhausted." The big dream of Russia moves, the impermanence of all actions, is the silence and the joy, and the desire to go to the grand ceremony. Since he is obedient to fate, he burns his body of 270 years of asceticism and arrogance, and enters the realm of Nirvana all the way. In the Bodhi Garden, the splendor of enlightenment is opened, and the sea of Dharma is swept away from the dirt of the heart. ”

After speaking, Master Yinguang held the "Samadhi Fire" in his hand and spat out the French language: "All things are impermanent, it is the law of birth and destruction, birth and destruction have been extinguished, and silence is joy - burn!"

The "Samadhi Fire" hit the altar, and the altar was suddenly blazing. At the same time, dozens of eminent monks cast spells together, and they all used Buddha fire to help the flames.

At that time, the dense dark clouds in the sky suddenly opened a hole, and the sunlight was like a tangible quality, fixed on the altar, and became the light of the wheel.

Zhao Ran looked at this sunlight, and couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart, secretly saying that this Buddhist gate really has a gate.

After the ceremony, the monks stepped forward to tidy up the altar and obtained a total of 69 relics. The relics are made by the Buddhist monks condensing the mana of precepts and wisdom, and it is the appearance of the heart and the Buddha.

Zhao Ran secretly speculated, from a utilitarian point of view, I am afraid this is one of the main reasons why Buddhism values the Xuanci rainbow body.

I heard Mingjue sigh: "There are so many relics, and the color is so solemn, it can be seen that Master Xuanci's cultivation is profound, and his merits are immeasurable, and he should be included in my Xixia Buddhism six hundred years ago!"

"What to do with these relics?" Zhao Ran asked.

Mingjue said: "According to the rules, nine pieces are generally selected to be placed in Tallinn to replace the original body of the rainbow body, but it is a bit unexpected to get so many, I am afraid that eighteen pieces will be selected for burial." The rest will be handed over to the Bodhi Hall, and perhaps two or three pieces will be given to the Taici Temple as a souvenir. ”

After the relics were collected, a ceremony was held in Tallinn to enter the tower. All the monks recited a volume of the Mida Sutra and three mantras three times each, that is, they respectfully invited the relics to enter the tower and seal them, and sure enough, eighteen pieces were sealed.

Zhao Ran still wanted to see if there was any change in the golden bowl, but he couldn't find it anymore, presumably it was put away by Master Xuansheng.

In this way, Zhao Ran's business as a state envoy will be over, and after His Majesty resigns to Li Qianshun, the lord of Western Xia, he can set off to return to Ming. And the day of His Majesty's sight is set for tomorrow, which seems to be in a hurry, and there is a kind of "you hurry up and get out".

Zhao Ran sometimes thinks, maybe this is the young and ambitious lord of the country, the attitude towards Da Mingming?

But it's no wonder that you're not normal to be "hospitable" just after you've knocked down hundreds of miles of land east of the White River, right?

That night, Zhao Ran and Zhang Juzheng met and ordered twelve personal guards to pack up and return to Daming after His Majesty's resignation tomorrow.

The place where Li Qianshun, the lord of the Western Xia, met Zhao Ran was in the Daqing Palace, where Zhongshu Province, the Privy Council, the Three Divisions, the Imperial History Tai Kaifeng Mansion, the Yiwei Division, the Official Planning Division, the Acceptance Division, the Farmland Division, the Pastoral Division, the Feilong Temple, etc., gathered in the main hall, and there were Tianlong Temple, Gaotai Temple, Jietai Temple and other large temple monks to accompany them.

After Zhao Ran ascended the palace, as a Taoist monk, he bowed to Li Qianshun, the lord of the country on the throne, and Zhang Juzheng bowed to the ground as a foreign minister.

After the salute, the eunuch came out to ask Zhao Ran about it, it was nothing more than whether this time he came to Xingqing smoothly, whether he ate well, whether the task was completed, etc., during which Li Qianshun in the throne did not say a word.

Zhang Juzheng also offered a congratulatory gift from the Great Tomorrow Son to the lord of Western Xia, and the gift was also very thin, nothing more than some gold and silver and soft things, and the total value would never exceed one thousand taels. With the current situation in Ming Xia, the gift is nothing more than to show the bearing of his side, and the eunuch in the palace will give back 200 cattle and 100 horses on behalf of the lord of the country.

The cow and the horse that returned the gift were originally negotiated by Zhao Ran, but they were taken by Li Qianshun as a "return gift", Zhao Ran secretly sneered, this is by no means a matter of stinginess, but a matter of the lord's bearing.

This is the end of the Majesty's speech for half an hour, Zhao Ran raised his eyes generously and observed Li Qianshun sitting upright on the throne in the hall, his thin body and fair skin were a little weak, but he must not be deceived by his weak appearance, this young lord is said to be very "scrappy"!

When he came out of the palace and returned to the official post, a little eunuch came to the door.

"I've seen Daochang Zhao, the slave maid is the little yellow gate of Yanfu Palace, and I came to ask for a long sentence on the order of the Queen Mother. ”

Yanfu Palace is the head of the West Sixth Palace, and it is the dormitory where the Empress Dowager Gao lives today, but I don't know why the Empress Dowager Gao sent someone to find her?

"I see, I don't know what my father-in-law is called?"

"Daochang Zhao is too polite, the slave and maid are insulting to listen, how can they pollute the root of Daochang's ears. ”

Zhao Ran smiled gently: "The little father-in-law is too polite, what is a cheap name and not a cheap name, people in cultivation don't talk about this." ”

"Yes. The slave maid entered the palace last year, her surname is Niu, and because she is nameless, she was given a nickname by the chief manager, called Shaoyi. ”

That's a real name...... It's muddy......
