I want to be a grandson

Chapter 426
"My minister pays homage to His Royal Highness, Your Highness, Wan An!"

After Zhu Yunxi's car arrived, Xu Huizu immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Duke Wei is exempt from the courtesy, this is not in the court, let's be more casual."

Because Xu Huizu was driving past the car, the others did not follow, they only saw him salute to that person, but they couldn't hear what they said.

Xu Miaorong asked suspiciously, "Sister, who is he, why is brother so polite to him?"

Xu Miaojin stood up, looked over there and said with relief: "He is His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun."

Xu Miaorong also stood up, looked at her sister, and asked in a low voice with doubts: "Sister, you can't concentrate on worshiping Buddha, is it because of him?"

Xu Miaojin's face turned red, and she said in embarrassment: "Don't talk nonsense! He is His Royal Highness, the grandson of the emperor, and has a noble status. If this word gets out, what will happen! You have to observe etiquette later, and don't collide with me. Already!"

"Don't worry, sister."

While Zhu Yunxi was talking to Xu Huizu, Zhang Fu had already entered Shuiyue Nunnery with a team of people, and guarded every corner.

Those irrelevant nuns inside were also blocked in the house by guards, who were sent to guard them, and they were not allowed to go out casually.

When he was ready, he came to Zhu Yunxi and said, "Your Highness, you can go in."

Zhu Yunxi nodded, and led Xu Huizu and others into the nunnery.

Seeing such a big battle, Mrs. Huineng couldn't help but take a deep breath. I'm afraid this nobleman is not ordinary noble!

When it was Huineng's turn to go in, Zhang Fu stopped her and told her that she could go in, but his apprentices couldn't go in and had to wait outside first.

Hui Neng knew that he could not be the master, so in order to make a good impression on the nobles, he took the initiative to tell the nuns to wait outside the door and not to make mistakes.

Zhu Yunxi went straight to the small courtyard where the previous abbots of Shuiyue Temple lived, but he did not go to the west room, but sat in the main hall.

"The daughter of the people pays homage to His Royal Highness, Your Highness, Wan An." Xu Miaojin brought her younger sister to salute.

"Excuse me, sit down and talk."

"Thank you Your Highness..."

After the two were seated, Zhu Yunxie said with a smile on his face, "I heard that the four girls of Xu's family stopped studying Buddhism, and their roots of wisdom are quite deep. This Shuiyue Nunnery is also a place with a very good relationship with Buddhism. The lonely king also wants to come and experience it."

"Miss Xu Fourth, I don't know how you practiced to be so spiritual. You must know that chanting scriptures day and night is not something ordinary people can do."

Xu Miaorong is nine years old. In this era, she already understands superiority and inferiority, and understands the principles of etiquette, so she made a salute.
He replied: "Returning to Your Highness, it was three years ago that the daughter of the people became attached to the Buddha. At that time, she and her sisters came to the nunnery to pray for the blessing of the father.

The "Guan Wuliangshou Buddha Sutra" says: "If you have a sincere heart, your voice will not stop, and you have ten thoughts, you will call Namo Amitabha Buddha. Because you call the Buddha's name, the sins of life and death for 80 billion kalpas will be eliminated in your thoughts."

"The soul of my father can be saved, so I recite scriptures a lot. After a long time, I have no distractions. I think that I can save my father from the suffering of hell and enjoy the world of bliss. All ties to the world are broken, and I travel to the blissful world."

Zhu Yunxi frowned, and said, "Miaorong, I understand that you prayed for your father, the King of Zhongshan, but you said that you want to rely on reciting Buddha's name.
To eliminate all kinds of sins created in the past, to eliminate the sins of life and death for 80 billion kalpas, is this a bit inappropriate?The king of Zhongshan is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, he is a general and a prime minister, and he ranks among the princes. How could he have all the crimes you mentioned. "

Xu Miaorong heard that His Highness seemed a little displeased, and quickly explained: "Returning to Your Highness, although my father has made meritorious service, but when he was alive, he fought many times and killed too many people. After all, the crime of killing is too heavy. ..."

Zhu Yunxi chuckled, eased the atmosphere, and said in his mouth: "Shiyu raised his troops on Haoshang, and first worshiped the heart of admiring the sun; he made a tripod in the south of the Yangtze River, so he became the pillar of the sky. Miaorong, you know this look What is the second line of the couplet?"

Xu Miaorong thought for a while, and said: "Your Highness, it should be: break the barbarians and level the barbarians, and the achievements of the ancient and modern people are the first; the generals and the prime ministers are talented and unparalleled in both civil and martial arts. This is written by Your Majesty for my father."

After Xu Da's death, Zhu Yuanzhang specially wrote this pair of couplets, and built a memorial archway on the left and right sides of Xu Da's palace, as a commendation.

Xu's family will see these two couplets when they go in and out, so of course Xu Miaorong will know.

Zhu Yunxie said: "That's right. These two couplets were written by the emperor's grandfather to commend the achievements of King Zhongshan. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and rebels were everywhere.
At that time, there were many separatist forces, and Beiyuan was eyeing it. At that time, your father obeyed the destiny and assisted Grandpa Huang to pacify the world and make the world peaceful. "

"Miao Rong, you should understand that when the Han Dynasty collapsed, the Three Kingdoms came together, the people were displaced, how many people died, and after that, they went to the south with their clothes in disorder,

What's more, how many people died in the war, how many people were slaughtered as pigs and sheep, that tragic scene is not a line of words in the history books, but mountains and rivers stained with blood! "

"Your father fought bravely on the battlefield for the peace of the world and for the people. If there were no loyal and brave men like them, the scene today would be the same as that time!
So you have to understand that sometimes killing is to save others!To eradicate evil is to promote good! "

Xu Miaorong was a little moved by what was said, but she still said in doubt: "What Your Highness said is true, but after all, my father killed many people and caused many..."

She originally wanted to say the word "crime karma", but it was inappropriate to say bad things about her father, so she quickly stopped talking.

Zhu Yunxi didn't want to get entangled in this issue, instead he said: "You know Buddhism always likes to release life, right?"

"What Your Highness said is that sometimes I will buy some fish and birds in the vegetable market and release them."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "The big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the dried shrimps. They release a fish, but they don't know that tens of thousands of shrimps will die. Do you think this is a good deed or an evil deed?
There are also birds, they also need to catch insects to eat in order to live, and they will also eat thousands of insects into their guts. Is this releasing life or doing evil? "

Xu Miaorong was a little dumbfounded, she hadn't thought about these questions, she only knew that they were taught to her by the abbot, and many people who had a predestined relationship with Buddha did the same,

She never felt that there was any problem here, but now she fell into doubts, could it be that what she did was really evil?

As a young lady of the Duke's Mansion, Xu Miaorong releases three or five animals each time. When she goes to the vegetable market to buy fish and birds, it costs at least a few tens of pennies each time, and sometimes it can reach thousands of pennies!
How many living things can this buy?
A single bird can cause so many killings, so the killings caused by oneself are innumerable and endless?
She looked out the window instinctively, and there was Mrs. Huineng standing in the yard, she looked kind and pious.

Xu Miaorong was released under the leadership of Master Huineng too many times.

According to Mrs. Huineng, she released more animals. Doesn't that mean that the crime she caused was more serious?

Zhu Yunxi continued: "Since Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all living beings, fish, shrimp, birds, and crabs are also equal to humans. Thousands of lives died at the hands of those masters. Can they eliminate their sins?"

Xu Miaorong was really confused, she didn't know how to answer, and she didn't know how to deal with it.

I have been thinking about this question in my mind all the time, if all living beings are really equal, then who else can become a Buddha instantly?
Seeing her younger sister's dull eyes, Xu Miaojin couldn't bear it, so she reached out and held her cold hand in her own.

Looking up at His Royal Highness, the Empress Dowager, she understood that His Highness's words had worked, but seeing her sister's pitiful appearance made her feel really uncomfortable.

The inside of the pavilion was quiet, there was no sound, and no one spoke.

They all focused their eyes on Xu Miaorong, and their eyes were full of worry.

After a while, Zhu Yunxi said slowly: "I heard that you met Buddha Yuan in Shuiyue Temple, and saw King Zhongshan's figure on the wall here. I wonder if this happened?"

Xu Miaorong came to her senses and replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, the daughter of the people has indeed seen the appearance of my father. When I was chanting and praying for my father, perhaps it was the Buddha's sincerity in commemorating me that made me see my father again... "

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "The lonely king also admires the king of Zhongshan very much, and he still vaguely remembers the appearance of the king of Zhongshan, but it is a pity that it has been a little blurred for a long time...

But since we're here, it's good to have the opportunity to meet him. Let's go, let's go to the West Wing. "

After finishing speaking, Zhu Yunxi stood up and walked out of the hall.

After arriving at the room to the west, Mrs. Huineng was also brought in by Zhang Fu under Zhu Yunxi's instruction.

When she knew that everyone still wanted to see King Zhongshan, she hurriedly said: "Benefactors, Buddhism pays attention to a word of fate. If there is a fate and sincerity, if you can move the Buddha, you will have the chance to meet him. If... you will not see it. "

Master Huineng knew too well that since these nobles wanted to see the King of Zhongshan, they would definitely let themselves chant scriptures and perform deeds.

Although I am a little flattering to the nobles, but now there are guards everywhere in Shuiyue Nunnery, and they are watching all the time, I can't do anything I want, how can I make Zhongshan King appear!
So quickly use words to block everyone's mouths, so as not to reveal their secrets.

Xu Huizu said with a cold face: "Master Huineng, you are the host of Shuiyue Temple and a famous master. Now that we have come to Shuiyue Temple, we have proved our sincerity, so please ask Master to do something for me to meet my father." Bar!"

Master Huineng took a peek at the young man's face, and then looked at Xu Huizu's scrutinizing eyes, she knew that this was probably Xingshi's accusation!
