"To celebrate your success, let’s go to a lantern festival and let you see the prosperity and luxury of Chang ‘an."
Since ancient times, people in China have called the first full moon day (the fifteenth day of the first month) the first month of the year, and the most important activity of this festival is to enjoy the lanterns.
Especially in the Tang Dynasty, the imperial court attached importance to the appreciation of lanterns and expanded the city lantern festival from small-scale activities.
Thanks to the rich economy and strong national strength of the Tang Dynasty, the Lantern Festival lantern viewing activities were grand before.
On whether the palace courtyard or the streets of villages and towns are decorated with lanterns and decorations everywhere.
On whether it’s princes and nobles or husbandmen, everyone goes out to enjoy the lights.
Lantern craftsmen will also specially produce some huge lantern wheels, lantern trees and lantern posts, and the city is full of fire trees and silver flowers, which are very lively.
In addition, other foreign countries will also offer all kinds of exotic lanterns to express their intentions at this time.
In other words, Tang Chaoyuan Festival is the prototype of the Spring Festival in later generations, and it is the real national celebration day.
"Lantern Festival?"
The soul comes from the 21st century. Pei Wende is naturally very curious about what the Chang ‘an Lantern Festival is like.
After all, he spent more than 20 years crossing the mountains in Weishan, and those small villages could not meet the basic food and clothing, let alone hold a luxury lantern festival.
Even Changsha County, the richest county in Tanzhou, is definitely not as grand as the Lantern Festival in Chang ‘an Capital.
China, thousands of countries pay tribute, and all nations come to Korea …
These words in the heyday of the Xing Dynasty all came from the Tang Dynasty.
And more importantly, these words in the Tang Dynasty are not just exaggerated modifiers, but real facts.
[Yuan Festival? Has it been another year? 】
Slightly picked his eyebrows Xiaoqing although I don’t know how prosperous the Lantern Festival is.
But as soon as she saw Pei Wende’s expression, she knew that the other party was moved.
Even if the cultivation has reached the level of Yin Shen Fa, Pei Wende’s character of joining in the fun still hasn’t changed at all.
Chapter 14 Chang ‘an Avenue
"Is the Yuan Festival coming soon?"
After a short excitement, Pei Wende soon realized what this meant like Xiaoqing.
In fact, this is the first time that Pei Wende has left Weishan and Lingyou Zen Master for the Spring Festival since he came to this era.
At this time last year, Pei Wende made all kinds of preparations in front of the metropolis, which made the whole Tongqing Temple full of festive atmosphere.
As a result, this time I completely forgot this code, and most of the Spring Festival was closed.
"I don’t know what happened to Master recently!"
Suddenly, I remembered that Zen master Pei Wende, who still stayed at Tongqing Temple, had a low tone.
Although Tongqing Temple is no longer the ruined temple, the villagers in the mountains or the pilgrims in Tanzhou will pray for blessings at this time.
Zhang Chusheng and civet cat, three brothers around Ling You Jackson, will not make him feel lonely, but Pei Wende still gives birth to a sense of sadness.
Kong once said that parents don’t travel far
But on the other hand, if you don’t have relatives and friends around you, the so-called festival is not much more special than usual.
Just like this time, if Zou Qiwu, an elder, hadn’t woken Pei Wende, he might not have realized what he had missed until the Yuan Festival passed.
"Don’t worry about the Zen master."
"Some time ago, I specially asked someone to leave the official post and brought him your message."
Inadvertently told a fact enough for ordinary people to go to jail. Zou Qiwu’s financial resources and skills were revealed at this moment.
I guess he should have received this message before you left, so he must be very happy now.
The topic Zou Qiwu suddenly said another news that surprised Pei Wende.
"And don’t you want to find your brother?"
"I have also received some news about him recently, and I believe you will be shocked by his experience."
……………………………………………………………………………………………………
On the first day of his return to Chang ‘an, Zou Qiwu consciously inquired about the news of monk Hui Ji.
After all, Zou Qiwu didn’t know what Pei Wende was determined to leave Tanzhou, but he was sure and had already come to Chang ‘an Hui Ji monk.
It was Zou Qiwu who never imagined that it was Hui Ji’s monk Chang ‘an who was far more exaggerated than he thought.
Because of Hui Ji, the monk Chang ‘an has become a central figure in stirring up the storm during this period.
Don’t say that you are interested in investigating professionals, even if even ordinary people know a little.
A few days before I first arrived in Chang ‘an, Hui Ji was attached to a small temple outside Chang ‘an, just like he came to Chang ‘an to visit monks.
However, after just being quiet for a few days, Hui Ji took the initiative to go to the famous Jionji and threatened to borrow the Mahayana Sutra left by Master Xuanzang.
Master Xuanzang, the ancestor of the "only knowing Sect", translated scriptures and broadcast Buddhism during his lifetime. Naturally, Jionji could not agree to Hui Ji’s request.
Nai Hui Ji is naturally prepared to dare to make such a request.
From debating classics to fighting, from fighting in literature to fighting in arms …
Hui Ji, with her excellent eloquence and magical power, forced the Jionji Mountain Gate to "pierce" and forcibly borrowed Master Xuanzang’s Mahayana Sutra.
It was also at that time that everyone realized that Hui Ji was actually the brother of the "mad monk Lingyou" who was famous for more than 20 years ago.
Although the main force in the struggle of encirclement and suppression of crazy monks in those years was the Taoist schools in Zhongnanshan and the officials of Qin Tianjian.
To say that there is no Buddhism and its disparate forces, let alone Hui Ji, I’m afraid even they won’t believe it.
After all, Zen master Huai Hai, who was deeply spiritual in those days, really intended to re-establish a hundred schools of thought and rectify all kinds of bad practices and ethos in Buddhism, which was equally devastating to Buddhism.
In the end, the situation of Lingyou’s isolation and aid failed, and Chang ‘an hid in Tongqing Temple in Weishan from then on.
From this point of view, Hui Ji’s powerful invasion of Jionji and borrowing Mahayana scriptures have not failed to vent his thoughts for Zen master Ling You in those days.
And the next few days, Hui Ji’s move proved this to everyone.
After successfully discrediting Jionji, Hui Ji attached himself to the small temple to open an altar to preach his ideas and Buddhism to all passers-by
Generally, monks argue and bicker with each other. When preaching at the altar, they don’t mention profound Zen principles and Buddhist scriptures, but tell all kinds of truths in the simplest and most straightforward tone.
From the influence of the weather at four o’clock on things, to the promotion of the circulation of goods to the economy, and then to the attack of the imperial examination on the clan, it is the evolution of hundreds of schools …
Hui Ji’s sermon has a wide range and a sharp thinking angle, and few people have come since the ancients.
What shocked the court most was that Hui Ji did not shy away from his "prediction" of the end of the dynasty during his sermon.
What he said at that time was that the ancient dynasty began in the land and will end in the land.
Nowadays, due to the serious phenomenon of land annexation in Datang, the bottom people have lost their basic conditions for life
Today, we will either send foreign troops, expand and seize more land to delay the end of the dynasty.
Either eliminate land annexation by itself and let the bottom people have the basic conditions for life again.
Otherwise, a famine and a flood can make the people rise up and re-establish a new dynasty reincarnation.
By that time, hunger everywhere and the destruction of life will no longer be a simple word.
As a result, it is conceivable that the statement of Hui Ji almost puts all vested interests on the opposite side of the people, which leads to the suppression in court.
But how much of this repression is anger, Yu Hui’s silence and boldness, and how much is panic? I’m afraid they will know the prediction of Yu Hui’s silence
Anyway, the final result was that Hui Ji was officially called an evil monk and ordered all those who saw him to be wanted and hunted.
Nai Hui-ji is a strong man who practices the method of "leaking everything"
No one can find his whereabouts, let alone bring him to justice.
And the only thing that is possible to arrest Buddhist Zhao Guizhen of Hui Ji, and I don’t know why, I have never made a move.
