After Xia Ji broke the situation, he didn't waste much time and went straight down the mountain.
Eunuch Mei greeted him and asked, "Seventh Prince, have you broken the chess game?"
"Go back, the emperor said, you have to return to the palace before dark, don't delay."
"Hahaha, if the seventh prince doesn't tell our family, we won't ask..." Eunuch Mei smiled sinisterly, and then followed the under house arrest prince to the fifth peak.
On the fifth peak, a monk has already held the "Past Burning Lamp Sutra" waiting in front of the mountain gate. The sutra is contained in a seven-treasure secret box. The secret box is decorated with gold, silver, colored glaze, glass, clams, and red. Beads and agates appear to be very valuable.
Eunuch Mei smiled meaningfully and praised: "Prince, this chess game has actually been broken? You have the ability, you really have the ability. This is an eye-opener for our family."
Xia Ji took the scripture, ignored him, and walked forward on his own. Eunuch Mei didn't say anything anymore and followed him as if nothing had happened. He didn't sit on the driver's seat of the carriage until he reached the foot of Mount Xumi. He picked up the reins and carried the imprisoned prince back to the palace.
Rose clouds are like blood.
In a blink of an eye, it was dawn, noon, and evening again.
The Ninth Princess of the Shang Dynasty seemed to know that her brother had got what he wanted, so she came to see him. When she arrived in front of the courtyard gate, she heard the sound of Buddhist scriptures being recited in the distance and stopped.
When the chanting stopped, she stepped forward and opened the door, walked in with her lunch box, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, brother, for breaking through the sea of misery in Mount Xumi and borrowing the secret treasure of Leiyin Temple. This is Many people in the palace are talking about it, and they only say that my brother has a deep connection with Buddhism."
Xia Xiaosu felt that her brother was in the limelight, and her face felt a little brighter. Although her brother was obsessed with Zen scriptures and was trapped in a small pavilion, he was still recognized in the scriptures and made a name for himself.
This is good. Although this reputation is not as good as the prince's support from the military, the third prince's favor from the great scholars, the fifth prince's respect from Heishuitai and even the righteous people in the world, but after all, when others mention the seventh prince under house arrest, , after all, he will never say "trash" again.
Xia Ji smiled when he saw that his sister was really happy for him. He opened the lunch box and found that it was full of vegetarian dishes. After another sniff, there was no meat smell at all. When he touched it with his hand, he found that it was even hidden. The wine is gone.
He looked at Xia Xiaosu with some confusion in his eyes.
The princess explained: "Concubine Wan asked her to prepare in this way."
"Concubine Wan is the third prince's biological mother, right? Why do I need her to take care of my three meals?"
Xia Xiaosu collected her thoughts and said: "Concubine Wan is very favored by the emperor. She is also gentle and virtuous in front of outsiders. She knows how to behave appropriately. She cried and said that my brother and sister's biological mother died young and she was left in the deep palace with no one to take care of her. It was really pitiful.
She was negligent in the past, and she blamed herself very much. From now on, she will regard my brothers and sisters as her own and treat them well, and... The emperor also acquiesced, and other great scholars who knew about this also thought this was a good move and in line with Confucian benevolence. Act of.
Concubine Wan couldn't see how hard it was for me to cook the food myself as a princess, so she ordered the imperial chef to prepare special meals for the prince every day. "
"So have you prepared fast food?"
Xia Xiaosu nodded and said: "My brother went to play chess yesterday. By this morning, the abbot of Leiyin Temple sent back the verdict, saying that my brother had seven parts of Buddha and three parts of demon hidden in his heart, so he was able to break the treasure of the sea of suffering." hazy."
The corners of Xia Ji's lips curled up. The abbot was very diligent in his judgment. Who was this judgment given to
It seems that the monks who become monks are not really monks anymore.
But his expression remained calm, because none of this was too surprising, so he did not show too much Tathagata Zen in Mount Sumeru.
Although he had also had expectations, hoping that those monks would really leave the secular world, escape into Buddhism, and no longer be in the mortal world, but in the end, expectations were just expectations.
Xia Xiaosu didn't notice the change in her brother's mood and continued: "Concubine Wan said that this three-part demonic nature will delay cultivation.
In order for her brother to have a better future in Buddhism and Taoism, she specially asked the royal chef to prepare fast meals in the future to help her brother eliminate this demonic nature.
The emperor knew about it and just praised him. "
After hearing these words, Xia Ji suddenly laughed twice.
Then, he took out the vegetarian rice without a drop of meat fat and started eating it with gusto.
A warrior needs to eat meat to nourish his muscles, bones, energy and blood, and a plotter needs to be ruthless to fight for every step. Without meat oil, his demonic nature is weakened, which means that all possibilities for him will be cut off.
He glanced sideways out of the window. From here, he could see the tip of the iceberg of this prosperous capital, he could see a part of the palace with thousands of high pavilions, and he could also see that there was no friend in the whole world.
The only one left is the Ninth Emperor's daughter born to the mother in front of her.
The monks also became secular.
Concubine Wan also needs to control herself.
The emperor doesn't want to see him either.
The brothers and sisters even smiled with hidden knives.
As he was eating his vegetarian meal, the sky was full of figures, their faces blurred, and they turned into the Five Elements Mountains and pressed hard on him, trying to pin him down in the Sutra Pavilion so that he would never be able to stand up. Unless he died, he would never be able to get out of the chessboard.
After finishing the fasting meal, Xia Xiaosu put away all the empty bowls. This silly princess obviously didn't see through the meaning. She thought that her brother was determined to become a Buddhist. Eating fasting was also a kind of proof of breaking away from the secular world, and it could also be regarded as a break from this strange wave of clouds. It is a good thing that she is gradually getting out of the power struggle, so she smiled and said: "If brother still wants anything, just tell me, no one will mess with me now."
Who would mess with a Turkish princess who will be married off in three months
She was ready to go to hell.
And the elder brother can also go to the Buddhist country.
Is Buddhism good
she does not know.
But just... Even if it's okay, it's fate.
This is what fate is.
It has been determined by God.
It's never up to you.
Xia Xiaosu looked at the clean rice bowl and asked curiously: "Brother, do you really like to eat vegetarian food?"
Xia Ji smiled gently: "I like it."
I absolutely love it.
The actions of the emperor's roommate had almost completely cut off the so-called affection.
However, although the abbot was positive, his judgment was wrong.
Seven parts Buddha, three parts demon
wrong.
It must be very magical.
The Ninth Princess pushed the door open and then gently closed the pavilion door of the deep palace with her backhand. The last ray of light became narrower and smaller as the crack in the door was closed.
It wasn't until there was nothing that the seventh prince of the Great Shang Dynasty opened the "Past Burning Lamp Sutra" in the dark.
Turned through the pages.
Read it word for word.
Eunuch Mei, who was reading outside the pavilion, started to yawn, but he was still reading.
Eunuch Mei shook his head with a sarcastic face, "Our family thought it was a big deal to break the sea of misery in Mount Xumi, but it turns out that we are still this useless.
But it’s no wonder that if you only know the Kung Fu of a three-legged cat, even if you have the Buddha-nature and demonic mind, so what? It's just a joke... hahaha. "
After walking a few more steps, he sighed again: "It's better to recite the Buddha's name than to recite the Buddha's name. If you go to a temple and become a monk, you can survive. Even if you lose your dignity, it's better to die than to live."
The palace gradually fell silent.
The moonlight is like water, drowning the imperial city.
The attic of the Buddhist scriptures.
Snapped.
The pages are closed.
Xia Ji closed his eyes and felt the mysterious surge in the center, as well as the fifth golden skill bead produced by the soul between the eyebrows - "Past Lantern Zen".
The skill bead shattered, and the golden flow merged with him, leading him to realize the power and Zen heart of the past Buddha.
Less than half an hour later, he had already mastered the ninth level of "Past Lantern Zen".
If Tathagata Zen tends to "the heaven and the earth interact with my heart, and my heart also interacts with the heaven and the earth", it is a kind of focus on the integration with the nature of the heaven and the earth.
Then, what the Ran Deng Zen tends to be is "the first meeting with Longhua, all lights are like lamps, and the lamps are Dharma". This Zen method is very unique. It is not like the current Tathagata Zen, where the snow stops and the wind stops, and it even affects The surrounding environment makes the environment show different laws from nature.
This Zen lies in light, in lamps.
To put it bluntly, it is a mental attack.
And... mental bondage.
