Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember it in a second, never lose it!

This situation is really dire. In Zhu Houzhao's heart, Fang Jifan's weight is very heavy, and he naturally does not want Fang Jifan to suffer.

Well, we have to find someone who will take the blame for the two of them!

And Liu Jin, who followed Zhu Houzhao, stood in the corner of the hall. As soon as he heard it, a suspicious liquid suddenly wet his crotch, and when his legs softened, he felt dizzy and fell down.

The Empress Dowager said with a chill in her eyes: "Come here..."

"Slaves are wronged!"

At this time, Liu Jin knew that it was a critical moment, so how could he dare to defend Fang Jifan.

He kowtowed like garlic, and wept bitterly: "Your servant is a person in the palace, how can you not know the rules in this palace, servant girl...you servant did not copy for His Highness, I am wronged!"

As soon as Liu Jin called for grievances, the Empress Dowager understood what was going on, and said sharply, "If it's not you, then who is it?"

Liu Jin raised her head subconsciously, and took a cautious look at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao looked at ease, his face was not flushed, and he was not panting, but in fact he was very nervous, so he didn't say a word.

All of this was taken into consideration by the Empress Dowager, suddenly she remembered something and asked, "Is it Fang Jifan?"

Liu Jin burst into tears like rain, and said aiai authentically: "I dare not speak."

The answer is already there.

Guaranteed to be Fang Jifan! Otherwise, Liu Jin would definitely deny it, so how could he dare not say it?

The Empress Dowager's complexion was sallow, looking terrifying!

She took a deep breath and said: "It's terrible to distort the scriptures and deviate from the scriptures. Such a person still stays with the prince. If he misleads the prince, this is a serious matter. Aijia Fang Jifan has no prejudice , and even felt that this person was extremely smart, completely different from ordinary young people. It is rare that the crown prince likes him, and there is nothing wrong with reading with him. But now it seems..."

With a cold face, she glanced at Zhu Houzhao, who realized that the matter was more serious than she had imagined, and then asked Wang Yan, "Wang Yan, immediately pick out the deviant parts from this evil scripture, and present them to the Ai family. Call the emperor again, this matter, the Ai family has to take care of it."

Wang Yan originally wanted to agree, but after all, the Empress Dowager wanted to criticize from the scriptures first, and then invite Her Majesty here to question her face to face.

This Fang Jifan... I am afraid that the good times are coming to an end.

But when he looked up, he saw Zhu Houzhao looking at him coldly, and his heart skipped a beat!

No way, if you pick a mistake in this scripture, if you pick a good one, you will offend His Highness the Crown Prince.

Furthermore, he served the Empress Dowager and had been reading the scriptures with her all the time. He was familiar with the scriptures, but he didn't understand the meaning of the scriptures.

In fact, this is understandable. The scriptures are raw and difficult to understand. He doesn't know what nonsense is in this scripture.

After a short period of deliberation, he cried and said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, this servant thinks that such scriptures should be examined by real people."

The Empress Dowager was in a fit of anger, she was furious when she saw Wang Yan's excuses, but after listening to Wang Yan's explanation, her face softened a bit.

That's right, how could one expect an eunuch to find out the mistakes in the scriptures, even so, it would be difficult to convince the public!

After all, Fang Jifan is Nanhe Bozi, the prince's companion, and it has been heard that the emperor has praised him a lot recently. If he wants to convince the emperor, he needs to be justified!

So she nodded and nodded: "Send this scripture to the Daolu Department and order him to call Longquanguan Puji Daoist to personally verify it, so... it can also give an explanation to the palace."

Wang Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least... this matter has nothing to do with her.

As for the Daoist Puji of Longquan Temple, he has always been trusted by his empress. When Emperor Chenghua was there, Taoist priests were flying all over the sky. Everyone took this opportunity to please Emperor Chenghua, and some even took the opportunity to mess up the government. , but the real Puji did not get involved, and still hid in the Taoist temple to read scriptures.

Even if the emperor summoned him repeatedly, this Puji Daoist refused to enter the palace, saying that a person who cultivates the Tao should focus on reading scriptures and practicing. Alchemy is a heretical way. His Majesty called Xiaodao into the palace. If he wants to learn the scriptures, Xiaodao is willing to go. If you want to summon Xiaodao to make alchemy, you dare not go.

As a result, this Taoist Puji was left out in the cold. If the Empress Dowager hadn't respected his character, he would have been killed by other Taoists long ago! This guy is not enlightened, everyone is making alchemy, but you are reading the scriptures, what do you mean, smashing your job?

After Emperor Chenghua passed away, most of the rest of the Taoists were expelled. This Puji Daoist, on the contrary, skyrocketed, so that even the Longquan temple where he lived also rose.

Now, the empress dowager asked real Puji to check it, it couldn't be better.

So Wang Yan hurriedly read the scriptures, and then went to the Ministry of Rites. Officials from the Daolu Department of the Ministry of Rites saw it and found out that it was the oral order issued by the Empress Dowager, so how dare she neglect it.

Just in my heart, I couldn't help muttering, how big is the matter, and the empress dowager ordered it herself?

If it is an ordinary Taoist, the official of the Daolu Department who is in charge of managing the Taoist sect can summon him with just an official document.

But the status of this Puji Daoist is different, so the Ministry of Rites still personally took "The Collection of Tao Te Ching" to the Longquan Temple outside Xizhimen.

.

Puji Master Yu Daochun learned that the Empress Dowager came to read the scriptures in Lu Zu's palace, but he also became puzzled.

When he was in the second year of Chenghua, he was granted the title of Master of Tiyuan Shou Dao and Enlightenment of the Dharma. After that, he took charge of Longquan Temple and was granted the title of Puji Daoist. When Emperor Chenghua passed away and Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne, he was decreed as "Antian Nutrients Chongxu Zhanran Performance Jinghua Puji Real Man". The name is very long, and generally the longer the name, the more powerful it is.

In addition, the royal family also bestowed a second-grade silver medal. Therefore, many people in the Taoist sect believed that Puji Zhenren was the leader of Zhengyi in the north.

It must be known that in the whole of Ming Dynasty, only two sects obtained legal status, the Quanzhen Sect in the north, and the Zhengyi sect in the Jiangnan. It was recognized by the imperial court, and thus weakened, or eventually became a branch of the two major schools.

The Quanzhen Sect is very popular in the north, and there is almost no place for Zhengyi. Among them, the Baiyun Temple in the capital is the most popular. Puji Zhenren, as a righteous Taoist in the south of the Yangtze River, has flourished in the capital, which can be regarded as an anomaly.

So Yu Daochun came to greet the official in person, and welcomed the official to Luzu Hall. The two sat down separately.

Hearing that someone misinterpreted the Tao Te Ching, Yu Daochun immediately showed displeasure.

In fact, such outrageous things have become less and less.

Since Emperor Taizu Gao appointed Zhengyi and Quanzhen as the orthodox Taoist sects, the imperial court's control over Taoist sects has also become stricter. In order to prevent evil sects from crooked ways from misinterpreting the Taoist scriptures, the Daolu Department will often strengthen them. punish.

After all, the commentary on this Tao Te Ching has become an official act, and it is not uncommon for some people with ulterior motives to use this Tao Te Ching to secretly misinterpret it, gather three religions and nine streams in the local area, and plot wrongdoing. resentment.

So he said solemnly: "Please rest assured, the poor will definitely check carefully."

After responding to the matter, he sent the officials away, and Yu Daochun summoned a few disciples.

These few disciples are all in their forties and fives, and have followed Yu Daochun for decades. They sat cross-legged, and Yu Daochun turned to a disciple and said, "Come and read..."

"Yes." The disciple nodded, and then took the "Tao De Zhen Jing Ji Yi", and recited: "The husband and the Tao, the primordial x is nothingness, the chaos is natural, the two forms are born from it, and the omnipotence is formed. If you can't get it, you can make it famous, and if you force it, you can call it Dao..."

When he first listened, Yu Daochun's face was solemn, and the other disciples also showed dissatisfaction.

Although the understanding of Taoism is different from Zhengyi and Quanzhen, and there are many branches within Zhengyi, but no matter how they say it, they still respect the annotations of other Taoism.

It's just that this scripture commentary came from nowhere, and it was obviously written by someone with ulterior motives. Now that the Empress Dowager personally sent this scripture commentary, everyone's first thought was that this must be some kind of evil book.

But... only a beginning, the disciples who couldn't bear it, were already gearing up to find something wrong, but they were all stunned.

At the beginning, although I didn't go deep into it, I just started to explain it from the Dao Ke Dao and the extraordinary Dao, but it seems... I don't think there is any problem.

Moreover, just this opening chapter, not only does not feel that it is deviant, on the contrary...it actually implies a deeper truth in the Tao Te Ching.

The disciples looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Yu Daochun seemed to have sensed that something was wrong, so he said to the disciple who was reciting: "Take me to have a look."

Now, he really wants to know what else is written below. It is a bit unbearable to wait for others to recite it. It would be more realistic to see it himself.

So the disciple hurriedly presented the "Truth of Taoism".

Yu Daochun sat upright and began to look.

'Therefore, at the beginning of the first chapter, it is advisable to end the sentence with one word of Dao, just like the chapter that uses the middle Dao of the scriptures, it is also the first to reveal a word...'

After Yu Daochun read the next sentence, his pupils began to shrink.

This sentence is still the interpretation of "Tao can be Tao, extraordinary Tao".

He couldn't help murmuring in a low voice: "Therefore, the first chapter should be based on the Tao... Yes, yes, the Tao is the root of the Tao Te Ching..."

After reading this, Yu Daochun frowned even deeper. Compared with other sutra commentaries in the past, this commentary did not feel rebellious. On the contrary, Yu Daochun felt that it was integrated with the sutra he was reciting!

This kind of interpretation is even more refreshing.
