Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 162 Three Masters and Three Teachers
This time, the place where the family met was in the Buddhist hall in the palace, and in front of the Buddha statue of Sakyamuni.

Lao Yang's family believed in Buddhism.

Yang Jian himself has a Buddhist name: Narayan, which means Vajra Warrior.

Dugu Jialuo is often called "Miaoshan Bodhisattva" and his Dharma name is "Zhuangyan".

When Yang Guang was in Jiangdu, he received the bodhisattva precepts from Master Zhiyi (yi), one of the four patriarchs of the Tiantai Sect. No loss, that is, to punish evil and promote good.

Yang Guang and his wife, Yang Zhao and his wife, Yang Hao and his wife, Yang Ming and Pei Shuying are all in the Buddhist hall. Besides, there is another monk.

The monk sat cross-legged in front of the Buddha table, facing the gate of the temple just like the statue of the Buddha.

And Yang Guang's family knelt in front of the monk.

This monk has a lot of background, even Comrade Yang Guang knelt down?Yang Ming knelt at the back, quietly looking at the monk's face.

Weather-beaten, emaciated, ragged, dry skin, eyes slightly open, piercing,
At first glance, it is a Buddhist power with great experience who has experienced dire straits.

"The master monk has worked hard," Yang Guang said.

The monk said: "It's not hard."

Yang Guang said again: "I have been looking for the monk master for more than ten years, and today I finally got to see the Dharma. Now the Zen Ding Temple is under construction, and the monk master should be invited to preside over it."

The monk shook his head: "Those who are sent by the Buddha will give up, those who are sent by the Buddha will go, and those who are sent by the Buddha will go there. Now that the karma has been repaid, you should go on your own way."

After speaking, the monk got up directly, walked past their family, and went on his own.

what happened?Yang Ming looked confused, why didn't Dad keep him?
At this time, Yang Guang finally got up and said with great joy:

"Zhao'er prepare your fast horse quickly. For your father, you will go to Renshou Palace in person to congratulate your grandfather."

Yang Zhao nodded and hurried out to make arrangements.

In the end, both father and son went to Renshou Palace.

"Aniang, what's going on?" Pei Shuying was already very familiar with Concubine Xiao, so she asked curiously.

Concubine Xiao smiled: "Go back first, let's talk later."

Now there is no grievance between Yang Hao and Pei Shuying, and they get along very well. Although the two of them have had that incident before, it is the past, and they have long since let go of it.

Yang Hao winked at Pei Shuying, and said with a smile: "I did it, I will tell my siblings later."

After this kid went to Jiangdu, he was left unattended, and his true nature was completely exposed. He searched for flowers and asked willows, saw each other, and wished to read all the beauties in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yang Ming had also heard about the things he did in Jiangdu. If his father hadn't been the crown prince, Yang Hao would have been on the execution stage.

Yang Ming can't control it, he is the third child after all, and his love of women is not a shortcoming, but his hobby is always based on depriving others of his hobbies, which is meaningless, this kid with a family also makes up his mind.

Just looking at Zhang Xiaobao who is still the number one celebrity next to Yang Hao, one can tell where the second child is interested.

Back in the hall, Yang Ming happily told the story, and Yang Ming suddenly realized.

No wonder Dad was so anxious to go to Renshou Palace, why did he say congratulations?This kid, Yang Hao, brought back the lost tooth relic of Sakyamuni.

To be precise, it was brought back by the monk.

The monk's dharma name is Faming, and the full dharma name is Shi Faming. It turned out to be the abbot of Dinglin Temple in Jiankang City, that is, the head of the monk.

After the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, the entire Jiankang City was destroyed, and now it is ruins and rubble.

Since Yang Jian believed in Buddhism, the Buddhist temple in the city was not damaged, but more than half of the monks had already left, and Fa Ming, the head monk of Shangdinglin Temple, disappeared with the tooth relic.

For Yang Jian, it is undoubtedly a great regret.

This Buddha Tooth Relic is not ordinary. It is one of the only two Shakyamuni Buddha Tooth Relics left. One is in Sri Lanka in later generations, and the other is enshrined in the Buddha Tooth Relic Pagoda of Lingguang Temple in Beijing. It is the one brought back by Yang Wei.

This treasure can no longer be called a priceless treasure, but a supreme holy object, its value is comparable to that of Chuan Guo Yuxi.

It is said that 100 years ago, a monk named Faxian in the south traveled to the Western Regions and got this tooth relic in Khotan (tián).

The Khotan (tián) country is also near Xinhetian City in the later generations. It is now a small country in the Western Regions.

After Faxian brought the relics back, they were stored in Shangdinglin Temple, but they were later taken away by Chen Ba, the founding monarch of Nanchen, and enshrined in the palace.

After the extermination of Chen that year, my father took people to scrape the ground three feet, but did not find the relic in the old Chen Palace. Later, when Chen Shubao was interrogated, he found out that the relic was taken away by Faming, the head monk of Shangdinglin Temple.

Therefore, for more than ten years, Yang Guang has sent people to inquire about Fa Ming's news, but found nothing.

After Yang Hao took office as the general manager of Yangzhou, Yang Guang handed over this job to him.

I didn't hold out hope at first, I never thought about it, but my second son really found it.

Yang Hao described the whole process, frothing and proud.

Finding the relic of the Buddha's tooth is a great achievement, and grandfather Yang Jian must be very happy.

Everyone was also very happy, because the tooth relic was brought back by the prince's son, which proved from the side that the prince is the heir apparent recognized by the Buddha.

According to the theory of Buddhism's emphasis on fate, Yang Guang has no fate with the Buddha, and the Buddha's relics cannot reach him.

The second child was really lucky, because of this credit, he abducted a few beautiful concubines from Yang Su's mansion, and Yang Jian pretended not to see them.

Back at Qingshan Room, Pei Shuying was still immersed in this joy. Indeed, this is a great happy event, and it is worthy of joy.

Next, after Yang Jian heard the news, he returned to Daxing in person, and together with all the officials, held a grand ceremony to welcome back the tooth relics of the Buddha's tooth.

The tooth relic of the Buddha is stored in Daxingshan Temple, and hundreds of eminent monks will hold a 49-day puja.

Pei Ju wrote a letter saying that the tooth relic of the Buddha's tooth was invited back from the Buddha after the Empress ascended to heaven, so it should be stored in the Zen Ding Temple, and Yang Jian agreed.

After the Great Zen Ding Temple is completed, the tooth relic will be moved to another place.

Returning to Beijing this time is not far from Yang Ming's wedding, so Yang Jian planned to wait until his grandson got married before returning to live in Renshou Palace.

Yang Hao welcomed back the tooth relic, but he didn't get any actual rewards, but he was named a "Messenger of Reception".

He would also wait until Yang Ming got married before returning to Jiangdu.

The wedding day has come.

Cattle, sheep, mules, horses, livestock, silk, satin, corn, gold, silver and jade, jewels and emeralds, the caravan can't be seen at a glance.

Yang Su finally showed his true strength in front of the people of Daxing City.

The treasury of the Duke of Yue is as rich as an enemy country, and the Yang family of Hongnong is the head of the family.

Yang Yinjiang's dowry, Jin Wangfu, can't fit it.

It's not that the treasury of Prince Jin's Mansion is small, but the treasury of Prince Jin's Mansion is almost full.

Yang Guang was also very surprised, they are all his own people, just make sense, you spend so much money, the Supreme Knows, carefully check your old background.

Half of the dowry was temporarily sent to Pei Shuying's mansion in Longqingfang.

Yang Yinjiang did not have a dowry house, but accompanied by eleven land deeds, a prime location in the capital of 11 yuan.

Yang Xuangan couldn't come up with such a handwriting, it had to be Yang Su.

Marrying a granddaughter is the same as marrying a princess. Liangpi (pi) went to Kaifu to file a complaint in front of Yang Jian, saying that Yang Su was domineering. He has been a servant for more than ten years and plundered money. The dowry, the caravan stretched for more than ten miles, and the whole city watched in amazement, which is already overstepping.

What would Yang Jian say about this?

He smiled and said nothing.

I don't care how much you eat, what I care about is how much you spit out.

Yang Su undoubtedly spent a lot of money this time, and even vomited it to his own grandson, so in Yang Jian's opinion, Yang Su did a great job.

This is behavior to be encouraged.

Liang Pi couldn't see this, and wanted to sue Yang Su to give him a reputation as a loyal and upright minister, but ended up getting frustrated.

This kid has to be more careful in the future, Yang Su will take care of him.

That night, Yang Yinjiang became Yang Ming's new wife, the princess of the county king, and the wife of the third rank.

Don't underestimate the third grade, the Shangshu shoots from left to right, that's the second grade.

But to be able to shoot left and right, he has the title of a Duke, and the Duke is from the first rank.

The king of the county, the duke of the state, the magistrate of the founding county, and the kingdom of Shangzhu are Cong Yipin.

The prince, the three masters, and the three princes are the first grade.

The three princes are Taiwei, Situ, and Sikong, and the three masters are Taibao, Taifu, and Taishi.

Yang Guang used to be a Taiwei and was beaten.

Yang Su is still Situ under his eyes, and he is the first grade.

In Sikong's position was Yang Xiong, king of Guangping, who was comforted by Sikong when Yang Jian deprived him of his military power.

The Taibao used to be the eldest grandson Lan, who died ten years after the founding emperor, and his daughter was the concubine of Yang Xiu, king of Shu. After his death, the Taibao has been idle until now.

The grand master used to be Li Mu, who was born in the Li family in Longxi, and died in the sixth year of Kaihuang. Li Hun, the general of Zuowuwei, was his youngest son, and his position was vacant.

The Taifu used to be Dou Chi, who died in the fourth year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign. Yang Jian's two nephews, Dou Qing and Dou Kang, had to call him Clan Uncle. The post of Taifu is also vacant now.

If Yang Ming becomes the prince in the future, then Yang Yinjiang will be the prince's concubine, which belongs to the first rank.

No matter what grade you are, you have to wash my feet tonight.

"Xuangan is back?" Yang Ming asked with a smile as he soaked his feet comfortably.

Yang Yinjiang has always known that Yang Ming doesn't like her father very much, but she doesn't care because there are too many people who look down on her father.

"I'm back, I've already gone to work in the Ministry of Rites." Yang Yinjiang took off her heavy dress and only wore unlined clothing, rolled up her sleeves and patiently washed Yang Ming's feet.

"How did you get along with Pei Shuying during this time?" Yang Yinjiang asked.

Yang Ming thought for a while and replied, "It's not bad, do you want to call her over?"

Yang Yinjiang frowned immediately: "I know she will be very disappointed tonight, but not tonight, I will serve you tonight."

Yang Ming groaned comfortably, and lay down on his back: "Then you can serve."

Yang Yinjiang pursed her lips, and moved the footbath away.

If Pei Shuying is a novice, then Yang Yinjiang is a skilled worker.

The reason is that Pei Shuying was thin-skinned and didn't study hard before she got married. It was also the first time in her life that Yang Yinjiang's skills had already been passed on.

So Yang Ming was very satisfied tonight.
