Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

Zhang Xin fumbled to tuck Zhu Gaochi in with her, and only started talking after she had laid down to make herself warm:

"It's okay. I'm not in a hurry. It's said that if it's destined to happen, it will happen. If it's not destined to happen, don't force it. I can take it easy."

"If it really doesn't work, we can ask Dad and Mom to give us a mountain, not too big or too small, so that we can build a house. Since our relatives can't meet, we can let the Tiqi guard the foot of the mountain. Just don't let anyone kidnap me and Wanxiu."

"I'm afraid I can't chop wood or fetch water, and rolling up my sleeves is hard enough. When the time is agreed, I'll stay out and have someone bring it in."

"I can cook. I learned how to light a fire and roll up my sleeves in my early years."

"We have farmed in the capital before, so it should be possible."

"Raise a few pigeons for me. If I really can't stay here any longer and can't survive, release the pigeons and you can come and take me back to the palace. Then I can live as long as I can."

Zhang Xin counted one by one the problems that might be encountered if she went into the mountains to practice Taoism.

After all, Zhang Xin still believes in the theory of cause and effect of being pregnant during the day.

She died once and went to the Merit Bureau, so shouldn't people let her come back to life to make up for her regrets?

Regardless of whether it is the original world or not, she has finally got this opportunity.

Therefore, merits need to be accumulated and are useful.

This proves that the Buddhist theory of cause and effect is somewhat reliable.

Although Taoists do not believe in reincarnation, they also do not want to be involved in cause and effect.

From a certain perspective, these two companies have reached the same goal through different paths.

How many people's karma did she interfere with when she came back this time?

Perhaps because it has reached its limit, this small world does not allow her to interfere any further.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain it. She, who was just standing by and watching the firefighting, ended up in a dead end.

The only way now is to stay away from the secular world and stop interfering in anything. Maybe you can still keep your life and see how the world develops.

The same applies to not being allowed to see close relatives.

All her close relatives are people in the court.

Every move of the people in the court will affect the people of the world.

And any word she says may affect these loved ones.

"You are so naive, Dahua."

Zhu Gaochi did not reply immediately. Zhang Xin's thoughts turned several corners before he replied quietly.

"Where is the naivety?"

Zhang Xin, please give me some advice.

"You think it's easy to live in the mountains? Snakes, insects, rats, ants, wolves, tigers and leopards are everywhere. Not to mention the carnivorous beasts, the monkeys in the mountains alone are enough to give you a hard time."

Zhu Gaochi touched Zhang Xin's head before speaking in an angry and amused tone.

Before they set out, someone reported that monkeys had come down from the mountains and injured people.

"Then let someone clear out the things in the mountains as well?"

Zhang Xin still made a very optimistic proposal.

"Silly, whether you can clean it up completely is another matter. Even if you clean it up completely, in a few days, those people from the next hill will move in and settle down here. Then it will be even more chaotic and there will be no peace."

Zhu Gaochi was amused.

"Is there such a thing?"

This is indeed an angle that Zhang Xin has never thought of.

"What do you think? The animals in the mountains each have their own territory. The old ones are still strong, and the young ones have grown up. Wouldn't they fight? If they lose, they have to move to another place to live. How could they not come to this ready-made unowned land?"

Zhu Gaochi explained with a smile.

"Uh, why do I think this sounds weird?"

Zhang Xin couldn't help but think that Zhu Di was still strong, Zhu Gaochi had grown up, and there was Zhu Zhanji who was about to become a father.

"Now that you understand, just keep it in your heart." Zhu Gaochi knew that Zhang Xin understood, so he stopped explaining and hugged Zhang Xin in his arms. "Whether to practice Taoism or not, let's talk about it after we have studied it thoroughly. Go to sleep."

Although Zhu Gaochi was disappointed when he heard Fengzi's words today, he also found that the situation was not hopeless.

He is equally indifferent to Buddhism and Taoism.

Now, in comparison, he is more inclined to Taoism.

Taoism advocates governing by doing nothing, but in reality, it is full of the word "force".

I wish to live as long as the heaven and earth, and to shine as brightly as the sun and the moon.

He also wanted to force it once.

He doesn't ask to live as long as the heaven and the earth, he just asks to live as long as Zhang Xin.

"Okay, sleep!"

Zhang Xin was hugged by Zhu Gaochi, and she felt so warm that she started to feel sleepy and stopped worrying.

~~~~~

In the days that followed.

Zhu Gaochi indeed asked someone to retrieve a bunch of local chronicles about Wudang Mountain, and he and Zhang Xin began to read them.

Zhu Gaochi was the crown prince in his early years, and later became the emperor and the prince.

A big name.

But in fact, apart from the two capitals, I have never been anywhere else.

Zhang Xin was no less impressive. She had been to one more place, Yongcheng, than Zhu Gaochi.

Even when Zhu Zhanji took her out in his previous life, they never went far.

On this point, the couple were very compatible and read the local chronicles with great interest.

Zhu Gaochi read, Zhang Xin listened, and Zhu Zhanyong recorded useful fragments.

With division of labor and cooperation, progress is rapid.

The day before arriving, Zhu Gaochi and Zhang Xin had basically gained a fairly comprehensive overview of the entire Wudang Mountain.

It can be said that we have a more comprehensive understanding of Wudang Mountain. In other words, we actually have a relatively complete timeline of the dispute between Taoism and Buddhism, and we also understand more about Zhang Sanfeng.

Wudang Mountain is located in Junzhou, Xiangyang Prefecture, and covers an area of ​​800 miles.

The most famous is the main peak, Tianzhu Peak, which is said to be like a pillar supporting the sky.

The surrounding peaks are in a ring shape, guarding Tianzhu Peak with the momentum of thousands of mountains coming to pay homage.

Among the peaks, there are magical caves, floating clouds and mist. The scenery is very pleasant, so even without Taoism and Buddhism, Wudang Mountain has always been a tourist destination in Shu.

According to records, Wudang Mountain was not originally called Wudang Mountain, but Taihe Mountain.

According to legend, the "Zhenwu Emperor" worshipped by Taoism attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven on Mount Taihe.

Zhenwu is Xuanwu, originally the god of the north. He was born during the time of Emperor Huangdi and was the prince of Jingle State. He went to Taihe Mountain to practice and became enlightened after a long time. He was then canonized as Xuanwu Zhenjun by the Jade Emperor. There is a saying that only Xuanwu can be worthy of the title, and the name of Wudang Mountain came from this.

The founder of Mount Wudang was Yin Xi in the late Western Zhou Dynasty.

Two thousand five hundred years ago, Yin Xi, the commander of Hangu Pass, waited for an old man with white hair and beard riding a green ox. Yin Xi took his disciples out of the pass to greet him and asked the old man to teach him the Tao.

At Yin Xi's request, the old man left behind two 5,000-word manuscripts, "Tao Te Ching" and "De Te Ching", and the "Tao Te Ching" that has been passed down through the ages was born.

Before leaving, Laozi made a promise to Yin Xi to "meet in Qingyang, Shu later" and then left.

Yin Xi therefore resigned from his post on the pretext of illness, first secluded himself in Hangu Pass to practice cultivation, and soon set out for Shu, and finally entered Wudang Mountain on the border of Shu.

At that time, Tianzhu Peak, which was shrouded in clouds and mist all year round and reached the sky, was chosen by Yin Xi as a place for spiritual practice.

Then Yin Xi cut through the thorns and set off to the top of Tianzhu Peak.

The road he walked on in the past has become the ancient sacred road today, going straight up along the cliff, with more than ten thousand stone steps leading from the bottom of the mountain to the top.

After reaching the summit, Yin Xi retired to a stone chamber under the stone wall of Santianmen on Tianzhu Peak.

There is a stream beside the stone chamber, called Qingyang Stream, and there is a bridge over the stream, called Qingyang Bridge.

Looking up from here, the Golden Summit seems just a stone's throw away.

According to local chronicles, after attaining enlightenment, Yin Xi met Laozi at Qingyang Bridge in Wudang Mountain, and then they ascended to heaven together and their whereabouts are unknown.
