Quick travel god stick demeanor

Since the end of the great unification of the previous dynasty, the land of the Central Plains was divided into Southern Liang and Northern Qi with the Yangtze River as the boundary.

Liang He, Emperor Taizong of the Southern Liang Dynasty, was a general in the former dynasty. He was ordered by the abbot of Fahua Temple, saying that his purple qi came from the east, gathered at the top, and was ordered by the emperor.

Sure enough, three years later, the former dynasty collapsed, and Emperor Taizong of the Southern Liang Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor in Jiankang, making Fahua Temple a royal temple and Buddhism the state religion.

If there is something good on the top, it will be great on the bottom.

The royal family respected Buddhism, and the folk belief in Buddhism became more and more prosperous.

Ten years after he ascended the throne, Emperor Taizong of Liang ordered all the people to worship Buddha. Therefore, in its heyday, there were more than 2000 Buddhist temples in Nanliang, and more than 60 monks and nuns.

Liang Taizong even practiced it himself, took the lead in worshiping and respecting the Buddha, studied Buddhism, and explained the scriptures.In addition, he also built pagodas, built Buddhist temples, and made golden statues.

Therefore, a poet once wrote a poem: "480 temples in the Southern Dynasty, how many towers are in the mist and rain."

When Xie Ange arrived in the New World, the background of the great era was so full of religious taste. Exquisite and magnificent pagodas stood in the capital and stood around the imperial palace.

The incense of Buddha and the Sanskrit sound are intertwined, lingering in the delivery room.

The abbot of Fahua Temple came in a hurry and asked Xie Ange to be his apprentice.At this time, Emperor Liang Taizong was over 50 years old and full of children and grandchildren, so he agreed.

Therefore, Xie Ange left his family when he was born and entered the temple.

As for the woman who gave birth to him, she died of postpartum depression not long after.

Liang Taizong had no offspring in his early years, and his adopted nephew became the prince. Later, he devoted himself to Buddhism and finally had his own son.Therefore, he highly praised Buddhism and sacrificed himself to the temple several times, but each time he was redeemed by the court with a lot of money, so the government was abandoned.

At this time, Northern Qi general Lu Di surrendered to Nanliang, and was named king with a different surname. He took advantage of the contradictions in the royal family to provoke the princes who were about to move, and launched a rebellion.After the rebellion, Emperor Taizong of Liang died of anger, the heirs of the Liang clan of the royal family withered, Lu Di was cut in half, and the nine clans were executed.

Only the young Ninth Prince and Xie Ange, who had already become a monk, were left in the lineage of Dizhi.

In the precarious empire, Fahua Temple is like a giant umbrella that shelters Xie Ange from the wind and rain.

"Abbot, Martial Uncle, the Ninth Prince sent someone to look for Martial Uncle." A little novice came to the abbot's room in a hurry, with a little sweat on his forehead.

The abbot's room is very simple and quiet, with only one old and one young inside.

"Hui Ru, don't panic." The abbot with deep wrinkles on his face and a kind smile comforted him, "Tell me about the matter carefully."

The little novice took a breath for a while, then put his palms together and told the whole story.

It turned out that the new emperor had to bury the first emperor before he came to the throne, but now the royal heirs are withered, and only the new emperor was alone when the spirit fell into the basin.

After hearing this, the abbot narrowed his eyes and asked, "Of course, what do you think?"

Xie Ange has no name, no surname, no royal jade plate, only the name of the dharma. At this time, he is only five or six years old, with a round head, holding a Buddhist bead in his hand, and his expression is very indifferent.

"Buddha said: Repay the fourfold kindness, and the lowermost kindness is the three kinds of suffering. There is a saying in "Xindiguanjing", the first kindness is the kindness of parents. The second kindness is the kindness of all living beings. The third kindness is the kindness of the king. The fourth kindness En, three treasures. My parents gave birth to me and gave me my body. Now that my father has collapsed, my disciples should be filial."

In fact, the widowed Xie Ange even had reason to doubt whether he was the biological son of Liang Taizong, after all Liang Taizong was in his 50s.

However, this matter was too closely related to him, so it was impossible to figure it out. Xie Ange simply let it go, it didn't matter anyway.

"Amitabha, so good!" the abbot said the Buddha's name.

"Master, the disciple is one step ahead."

Generally, the emperor's funeral must be extremely grand and luxurious. On the day of the funeral, the monks from Fahua Temple must be present, and the abbot is no exception.

***

Xie Ange packed his luggage and went to the palace to guard the spirit with the officials and servants who came.

Maybe it was hit by a series of changes, even though he was about to ascend the throne, the Ninth Prince still looked very tired and haggard.

Seeing Xie Ange coming, he smiled and said gently, "My virtuous brother is here."

"My little monk has met the Ninth Prince." Xie Ange clasped his hands together and bowed his head slightly in salute.

The Ninth Prince sighed: "You and I are close relatives, why bother to see outsiders?"

"Your Highness, etiquette cannot be abandoned." Xie Ange said calmly, raising his head to look at the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince was a little afraid to look directly at those eyes that seemed to have insight into the affairs of the world, and slightly turned his gaze, and said: "Your brother, you just need to have your heart, you don't need to be too polite."

It's really better spoken than sung.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Perhaps it was because Xie Ange had already become a monk and was an outsider. He was unlikely to inherit the throne and was not a threat to the Ninth Prince. Therefore, during this period of time in the palace, Xie Ange was treated fairly well.

Xie Ange honestly kept watch and prayed for blessings.

On the day when the spirit came out, the dark clouds hung low and the wind was blowing.

People who lead banners hold high flags and umbrellas and walk in the front, followed by the emperor's guard of honor, thousands of people, holding all kinds of weapons, flags and various "burning fire" made of paper or silk. ", mighty and mighty, very majestic.

Behind them are the porters carrying the coffin. They are dressed in filial piety, strong and strong, with solemn expressions.Behind the coffin are the heavily armed guards, and then the civil and military officials and the emperor's relatives. ①

There are a large number of monks in the funeral procession, headed by the abbot of Fahua Temple, wearing monk clothes, holding a wooden fish, and reciting the "Ksitigarbha Sutra" and "Diamond Sutra" in their mouths, to save the dead and open the way to the underworld.

The whole funeral procession is more than ten miles long, mighty and mighty, and the funeral objects are priceless, which fully embodies the idea that death is like life.

On the way, Xie Ange saw several characters that appeared in the plot, the strong general, the heroine's uncles, and the heroine's father—Shen Zhicheng.

Shen Zhicheng had a good appearance, and when the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, he looked handsome and handsome, with a feeling of coquettish but not obscene, and the ambition in his eyes added vigorous masculinity to him, making him appear extra provocative girlish heart.

No wonder the general's only daughter married Shen Zhicheng, who came from a modest background.

Xie Ange only sighed when he saw it, but didn't take it seriously.Perhaps this meeting will make it difficult to meet again in the future.

Such a large funeral is really very difficult.

After the emperor's burial, all the attendees lost weight several times. The Ninth Prince swayed three times while walking. Xie Ange saw that the belts of many potbellied officials were fat.

Some elderly ministers even fainted several times, and the imperial physicians were on standby at any time.

Fortunately, he learned Taoism in the last world, so Xie Ange was able to withstand it, but he lost a little weight and did not hurt his body.

This world may be suppressed by the law of heaven. The power that Xie Ange can display is less than [-]% of that in his heyday, and the aura is not as abundant as in the previous world. This makes him feel uncomfortable when he is used to powerful power.

It's like a person coming to Mount Everest from the plains, the oxygen suddenly becomes thinner, and he can only adapt slowly.

However, judging from the books in the space, except for the shadowy guards who appeared in the plot, no supernatural powers appeared in the plot, and now they can use the sun and yang energy to practice the Pure Yang Art, which somewhat gave Xie Ange some comfort.

With the power you are familiar with, you will have confidence.

Xie Ange doesn't want to hold great power, doesn't want glory and wealth, doesn't want beauty in his arms, just wants to be unrestricted, only wants to control his destiny, only wants to be able to say no freely.

Power Power, as the name suggests, power and strength complement each other. It is the top of the food chain, the leader of the flock, and the most beautiful medal of the individual.

There is no power, only strength, and strength can give Xie Ange sufficient confidence.

The following enthronement ceremony finally dilutes the gloomy atmosphere in Jiankang City.

Xindi and Baiguan fell into a new round of busyness and ecstasy.

This has nothing to do with Xie Ange.

According to the requirements of the Buddhist scriptures, he has already repaid his parents. Although the new emperor is related to him by blood, he is only a half-brother after all. He has never met before, so there is no relationship. Xie Ange doesn't want to be redundant. people.

You can't share adversity, and you can't share wealth.

To be honest, a little frustrated.

The reason why Buddhism is so popular among the rulers is because it pays attention to reincarnation and cause and effect, and rewards in the afterlife.Buddhism advises people to be kind, meek, patient, and obedient to their rulers.

But Xie Ange was born in a Taoist school, and he longed for freedom and freedom. It was very difficult to take back his wild heart.Therefore, under the shackles of various rules and precepts, it will be extremely uncomfortable.

As soon as the late emperor was buried, Xie Ange immediately paid for the money, and returned to Fahua Temple with a group of monks.
