Chapter 231: Emptiness is Color, Emptiness is Emptiness

I heard that someone and Master Dade of Shuiyue Temple were participating in meditation, and soon hundreds of people came to hear the news, and many more people rushed here, all wanting to witness this rare scene, thinking that there were more than two or three thousand people in Shuiyue Temple who came to offer incense?

Because the three dogs of Jinling and others were wiped out, most of the people who came were female guests, and everyone squeezed their backs shoulder to shoulder to congest the side hall into an airtight air.

And Xu Hao's side was surrounded by palace guards dressed in disguise, and because it was a male guest, the women were blocked, not to mention the guards for a while, even Zhu Di was very nervous, one hand was in front of his father, and his eyes were a little hideous.

On the contrary, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed very happy, looking at the female guests around him with interest, from the women's clothes and jewelry, etc., all show that the national strength of the Ming Dynasty is thriving, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

And Xu Hao was a little speechless, looking at the women on the third floor and the outer three layers, and said in his heart that this is a star chaser, right? That's it! Becoming famous is today.

At the same time, Fang Xiaoru pointed to the crowds of pilgrims and tourists, and said bitterly: "Your Highness, look, how prosperous is this Buddhist incense?" More and more people abandoned their homes and careers to become monks, and the monks thus amassed the fat of the people, and the people occupied the fields without paying taxes, which will inevitably make the treasury increasingly empty in the long run. ”

Zhu Yunwen said solemnly: "Sir, don't worry, this matter is in my heart." ”

Fang Xiaoru's expression softened, and he smiled heartily: "Your Highness's heart is for the society, and I have a successor to the Ming Dynasty." Although the old man is old and shallow, he should do his best to assist His Highness wholeheartedly in the future. ”

Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed and said: "It is really a long-cherished wish of Lone to be a great talent in the world. ”

Xu Ji took the opportunity to glance at his brother, and pretended to be excited: "The three ministers, father and son should also swear to follow His Highness in front of the saddle and behind the horse." ”

Zhu Yunwen smiled: "Okay! Today, Gu is very happy, both Mr. Fang and you and other loyal and brave people, the country is very lucky! We would like to ask you to work together in the future. Jointly assist the lonely to govern my Ming Dynasty. ”

Xu Wen couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and secretly said that his brother no longer has to look at the face of the third child in everything, what if you have the favor of the saint? The future Ninety-Five is the one in front of you, the third child, you will be proud for a while, sooner or later you will regret not being at the beginning.

In the side hall, Xu Hao tried his best to condense the snow, and in the face of several consecutive problems from the elders, he answered them without thinking. Nearly a thousand female guests are fascinated, who let the old nun who is compared to the old nun on the throne, who doesn't miss the chic young man who is as rich as jade? Ear Hearing is indeed talented. Suddenly, Xu Hao came with one-sided support.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head sideways and said in a low voice: "The old man said that this kid is Liu Ji's second, the article is mediocre but proficient in miscellaneous studies, he is considered a learned person, today he can be regarded as forcing him to show his true talent and learning, which is really extraordinary." ”

Zhu Di agreed: "My son also found that he was an unusual person in terms of speech and behavior, and he was probably very person-in-person, and he took special care of him. In the past, no matter where he talked about it, there seemed to be nothing he didn't know. Talking about the present and the past often has unique and novel views, which are completely unconstrained by historical books. It's a pity that he often knows only half of it, but his victory lies in refutation, and this son is obviously not a specialist but a generalist. With a little honing in the future, you can be qualified for any position. When his son redoubles his efforts to cultivate him, and recommends him to Beijing a few years later, this son may be the prime minister's talent. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "If the jade is not cut, you can watch it." But always remember the words of the Father. In the future, the court will never be allowed to reinstate the prime minister, and if you want to establish the prime minister after Yun Wei ascends the throne, you must resolutely oppose it. He respects you, the fourth uncle, very much, and will listen to your advice. ”

"Yes, my son takes it to heart." Zhu Di sighed secretly in his heart, until now, his father still insists on choosing his nephew as the crown prince, don't you know that it will be chaotic to inherit the legal system, and the royal family will learn from each other in the future, no matter what the heir is, the royal family will never be at peace!

Zhu Yunwen, who was outside, also mentioned this matter at this moment and expressed his worries. Fang Xiaoru said disapprovingly: "Your Highness doesn't need to mind, the three ancient emperors are all virtuous. The old man privately thinks that there are many disadvantages whether it is a long and a long heir, and only a virtuous person can ensure that the country has a virtuous monarch and a stable monarch for all generations, not to mention that the princess has been canonized as the main palace by the saint, and with the name and righteousness, His Royal Highness is the chief and the grandson, so there is no need to worry about it. ”

Zhu Yunwen sighed: "That's the case, but the two adults of Qi and Huang often say that the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty is a lesson from the past. Alas! It's all my Zhu family's descendants, why fight for it? From time to time, he wanted to simply resign from the position of the monarch and give up the throne to the virtuous. ”

Fang Xiaoru hurriedly said in a deep voice: "By all means, His Royal Highness is the bloodline of the deceased prince, and it is the inheritance of the great unification, how can he privately bestow it to others?" The old man said that he didn't like what he said, as a prince, he couldn't turn back, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable, His Royal Highness and even the honest gentleman, who in the world would not admire him? With this gathering of people's hearts, why worry about the vassal kings everywhere? ”

Zhu Yunwen sighed: "But Lone is always uneasy, does Mr. Fang have a countermeasure?" ”

Fang Xiaoru muttered: "The old man has always disagreed with the proposal of the two lords of Qi and Huang to cut the feudal domain, all the princes have contributed to the country, and they are all of the bixia bloodline, and if they do not show their opposition for a day, the court will not be able to do anything against it, otherwise the flesh and blood will kill each other and cause the subjects of the world to be dissatisfied, and the world will be turbulent." Da Ke Runwu silently gradually reduced the real power of the vassal king's mansion, and when the time is right, it will be transferred to another place. ”

Zhu Yunwen nodded in agreement, but in fact he didn't agree in his heart, just because when dealing with government affairs, many government decrees often have to pass through the local palaces first, and then they can be issued to the localities, which is an indescribable strange feeling. When the emperor's grandfather was alive, everything was easy to say, no one dared to disobey the yin and yang, and what about after he ascended the throne? In the face of a large group of elders, can the decree still ensure that the morning and evening will come and go unimpeded?

Since ancient times, the authority of the emperor has not allowed anyone to provoke, and the high-spirited Zhu Yunwen has long wanted to take revenge in his chest. And the first stumbling block is the uncles of the kings, if you don't kick away the uncles who can restrain you, it will be as unbearable as pressing more than a dozen emperors on your head, not to mention that these are all contenders for the throne who have the power to fight for the throne.

On the side of the so-called couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly? Zhu Yunwen, who has already tasted the intoxicating taste of imperial power, can't bear the supreme power being checked and balanced by others no matter what, although this is all set up by the emperor's grandfather.

Fang Xiaoru, who has never been out of office for almost his life, can't understand the mystery derived from power, and is very happy to meet the master, pointing to the surrounding scenery and talking and laughing.

But he didn't know that the imperial grandson around him no longer valued him, and only regarded him as a famous person in the world, and more and more convinced that Qitai and Huang Zicheng, who had rich experience as officials, were the right-hand men in the future.

The atmosphere in the side hall was hot, even if Xu Hao didn't show off, but every answer could cause a shout from the women at the scene, which made Zhiqing unhappy, and tortured the handkerchief angrily.

Gradually, Xu Hao noticed that Comrade Lao Zhu was a little impatient, and said loudly: "Zuihou two Zen, I don't have time to accompany you." ”

The elder sweated on his forehead, and after a long thought, he asked, "How can emptiness be color?" ”

Xu Hao said disdainfully: "You are just so capable, you can't do without color over and over again, it can be seen that you are a human being." As soon as these words came out, countless women were provoked, and some people laughed: "This is Shuiyue Temple, what else can the elder say without saying anything?" Could it be that the son jumped out of the stone? ”

Xu Hao smiled helplessly and said: "The warbler is full of thousands of flowers, and the grass is in the sky in April." ”

In the midst of the appreciation, the elder said, "What is the explanation? ”

Xu Hao smiled: "I'm looking at you now, this is emptiness is color." ”

"This is really emptiness, and it is color! That's a great answer. Zhu Yuanzhang immediately slapped his palm, most of the female guests didn't understand what it meant, and seeing that the elder was speechless, he applauded vigorously.

The elder grimaced and asked, "Then how is color and emptiness?" ”

Xu Hao smiled and said, "Listen to the female monk!" All Vientiane is in the ancient mirror, and the shadow of the autumn toad falls in the thousands of rivers. ”

The elder asked weakly, "What's the explanation?" ”

Xu Hao smiled loudly and said leisurely: "Buddhism is in the world, it does not leave the world, and it is just like seeking the horns of a rabbit when it leaves the world." Specifically, it is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, not born or destroyed, not dirty and impure, death is the source of liberation from all suffering, isn't this the truth for you and others to fool the world? If a monk has the slightest reverence for the Buddha and reincarnation, he will not use the pure gold to cast the Buddha statue and sow his own sins. ”

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang said to the female guests earnestly: "Don't be attached to color, nor to emptiness, color and emptiness are not two, and the law is Buddhism." As long as you are a good person and a down-to-earth person, why do you come to burn incense and worship the Buddha? When you offer all your hard-earned money to the monks and hope for the blessing of the Buddha, you are already misinterpreting the Dharma, and it is better to dedicate thousands of family wealth than to do a good deed every day. ”

"A bunch of stupid people!"

Zhu Dixin said that he was just playing the piano to the cow, and if he wanted these ignorant women and Taoists to understand his father's words, it would be more direct and effective to burn down this Shuiyue Temple.

When the next group of people slowly walked out of the side hall, how dare the elder stop it? I wish I could invite the gods away, and the female guests saw that these young and old people were awe-inspiring, and they all consciously got out of the way.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the lead and walked forward, stopping to watch one by one. Xu Hao, who was walking behind, took the opportunity to whisper to Zhu Di: "After something happens in a while, uncle, you can't reveal your identity, and you can't show your attitude in public." ”

"Why?" Zhu Di was shocked.

Xu Hao said: "Don't get to the bottom of it, in short, you must listen to the child this time." ”

To say that Zhu Di is by no means easily swayed by others, but today I witnessed Xu Hao being valued by his father, and seeing him show a superior side, I couldn't help but glance at Xu Hao, thought about it and nodded in agreement. (To be continued......)
