The servants of Cui Mansion saw heavy smoke coming out of Cui Hao's yard. They thought it was a fire, so they hurried to rescue them. A group of servants rushed into the yard, but they saw Cui Hao standing calmly outside the study with their hands behind their backs. In the light of the fire in the study, he gave a light command, "The flames in the study are too big, so there is no need to grab the books inside. Don't let the fire in the study go anywhere else!"
Keeping the annotated books in the study is a curse to the Cui family.
Because Cui Hao is too capable, the books he has annotated have a huge influence among scholars, and those who have read them are regarded as treasures. Later, some people even suggested that the books that Cui Hao annotated should be printed nationwide in the Northern Wei Dynasty to replace others. The books, let all scholars learn these books annotated by Cui Hao.
Although the person who suggested that Cui Hao's annotated book be published as the "standard textbook" of national scholars is suspected of photographing Cui Hao's horses, this also illustrates Cui Hao's ability from the side.
Of course, this was also one of the reasons for the subsequent collapse of the Cui family. The emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, in order to consolidate his imperial power, could deny his six relatives, how could he tolerate a Han Chinese having such a supreme status among the scholars of the Northern Wei Dynasty?
The real reason was that the Xianbei imperial family could not tolerate a Han tribe with a strong Han ethnic plot sitting in the Northern Wei Dynasty, threatening their rule.
Others don't know the root cause of the Cui family's demise, but Xia Ping'an is too clear. The Cui family's demise, and the literary prison created by the National History case are just a starting point and an excuse. The national history is the royal family, and it is also the royal family who ordered Cui Haobing to write the "real record". After the history books were repaired, the history books were carved into stone tablets in the capital and displayed to the Xianbei nobles. It was also the royal family. Finally, because of history, many of the Xianbei ancestors were written badly. It exposed the "national evil" and used history books to provoke the anger of the Xianbei aristocratic group. It was also the royal family who continued to exterminate Cui Hao by this ground.
Seeing the books in the room burnt to ashes, Xia Ping'an finally breathed a sigh of relief.
A study room burned, as long as it didn't hurt people, it wouldn't be a big deal.
Qinghe Cui was one of the four surnames of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Cui Hao's seventh ancestor Cui Lin, from the Three Kingdoms, Cao Wei, paid homage to Sikong, Cui Hao's great grandfather, grandfather, father, all high-ranking officials, and his father was given a white horse. Gong, to burn a study room for such a home is just a trivial matter of Sesame Mung Bean.
In the afternoon, Cui Hao's study had been knocked down, and the Cui family had found a craftsman again to build another study for Cui Hao.
Just after lunch, Tai Shi Ling Wang Liang visited.
Hearing Ming Wang Liang's intention, Xia Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that his fire was burning at the right time.
"Master Wang, I'm sorry. Today, there was a fire in my study room. All the books in my room have been burned. My decades of hard work are gone, and the "Ten Wings" I commented on is also burned out..." Xia Ping'an Shaking his head, said bitterly.
"Ah, how could there be a fire?" Wang Liang also looked astonished and regretful.
"It may be that I was too anxious when I entered the palace in the morning. When I left the study, I accidentally turned over the lampstand in the study and didn't find it. Hey, it was also a calamity. A few days ago, I diagnosed that there might be a fire in my house recently. But it fell in his study room!"
"Last time the imperial physician ordered Master Zhou Dan to say that he was fortunate to have seen the "Ten Wings" commented by Master Cui at the mansion. After he watched the "Ten Wings" commented by the adults, it was instantly transparent. I still want to borrow it to learn it. It is a pity, it is a pity, I don't know when Master Cui will re-note "Ten Wings"?"
"Recently, my energy is low and my dizziness is dizzy. Those books can only wait for me to slowly regain my energy. I can comment on as many as I remember..."
In the following three or four months, Xia Ping'an asked for medical care, saying that his study was on fire and burned, and his previously annotated classics were burned. He was sad and depressed. Basically, he stayed at home, guided and adjusted his breath every day, exercised, and when he had free time, he would investigate. Take a look at the children of the Cui family and see if you can find any talents.
No way, Cui Hao is good at everything. He is almost a demon and looks handsome. He often compares himself with Zhang Liang, but his body is a little weaker. Even the history books say that Cui Hao looks like a woman, looks handsome and has a good body. Not strong either.
There is no record of Cui Hao's descendants in the history books. Maybe it is because Cui Hao is weak and has no children.
Tuobasi heard that Xia Ping'an's study was burned, and his whole body was sad and depressed. He personally asked the **** in the palace to send hundreds of new books to Xia Ping'an and some medicine, instructing Xia Ping'an to take care of his body.
These books are not cheap in this era.
Cultivation guidance requires at least a hundred days to build a foundation. After three or four months of exercise, Cui Hao's body has gradually improved its vitality and the five internal organs, and Xia Ping'an's daily energy has become more vigorous. No matter how weak, he can even open a bow.
Among the children of the Cui family, Cui Hao also found several useful talents.
When he got better, there were more things he could do, and Xia Pingan began to inspect the Cui family's farm industry.
The line of Cui Hao, the Cui clan of Qinghe, was originally from Cui Lin. Since he is a big clan, he needs to be rich. There are more than ten farms in the whole family, and he also runs various businesses.
After a round of inspections, Xia Ping'an began to plan.
Since I am Cui Hao at the moment, the future tragic fate of several families related to Cui Hao, I naturally have to try my best to avoid it. This era is too chaotic. The Sima family in the south is not a good bird, and there are many strong clans in the north. , Change the banner of the king at any time, don't say anything to dominate the king, at least to ensure that Cui Hao's line can continue.
After being in Jiezhu for more than four months, after some preparations, Xia Ping'an entered the courtyards of Cui's back house for the first time.
Seeing the arrival of Xia Pingan and Shi Shiran with a box in his hand, the two maids at the door of the Cui family's back house looked astonished. The relationship with the wife is not harmonious. Although they are in the same home, they basically avoid each other. Everyone in the Cui family knows that the master's study was burned a few months ago. The wife knew, and she just sent the close maid next to her to greet and visit. Finding that the master was okay, he didn't care about it anymore.
"I have seen the master..." The maid in the backyard hurriedly saluted Xia Ping'an.
"Is the madam back?" Xia Ping'an asked knowingly. He knew that his wife had just returned from a temple burning incense today, so he deliberately asked.
The two wives of Cui Hao were both the daughters of Guo Yi, a big family in Taiyuan. They were sisters. Mrs. Guo married Cui Hao and died a few years later, and then Mrs. Guo married. This is a political marriage between the Cui family and the Guo family. Combination of interests, there is not much emotion, plus Cui Hao is proficient in yin and yang mathematics, advocating Taoism, but Mrs. Guo believes in Buddhism, the two believers are different, the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism is extremely fierce in this family, Cui Hao once burned the Buddhist scriptures read by Mrs. Guo to ashes and flushed them into the toilet.
Mrs. Guo also came to proud of the family, and naturally did not give Cui Hao any good expressions. Although the husband and wife maintained their husband-and-wife relationship, the cold war between the two had been for a long time.
Xia Pingan muttered that there is another reason why Cui Hao had no heirs in the history books. Maybe the relationship between Cui Hao and his wife may be very stiff.
"Madam has returned, she is in Yuntang..." the maid said in a panic.
The Xianbei aristocrats of the Northern Wei Dynasty, many believers in Buddhism, before Cui Hao advocated Taoism and suppressed Buddhism, invisibly offended a large number of Xianbei aristocrats, and were hated by many Xianbei aristocrats. This is also one of the reasons why the Cui family will be destroyed in the future.
And it was the Northern Wei imperial family that really wanted to suppress Buddhism, because the prosperity of Buddhism in the Northern Wei Dynasty also threatened the rule of the Northern Wei imperial family.
Xia Ping'an walked towards the backyard, and the two maids, one to guide Xia Ping'an, the other hurriedly went to report.
Yuntang is the place where Mrs. Guo worships Buddha and chants at home.
Passing through the lotus pond in the cloister, Xia Pingan quickly came to the Yuntang. Standing outside the Yuntang, Xia Pingan saw a woman in a long green dress with a golden hairpin on her head and a green dress. Facing the Buddha statue in the niche, chanting sutras.
The woman's back is extremely beautiful, graceful and elegant, and she has the aristocratic temperament of everyone at first glance.
Outside Yuntang, there was an older maid who was a close-knit maid brought by Mrs. Guo from Guo's house. The maid was also quite surprised when she saw Xia Ping'an coming. She looked at Xia Ping'an with some caution. Hurriedly entered the Yuntang to report.
The woman who was chanting heard the warning from the maid next to her, and turned her head and glanced at Xia Ping An.
Danfeng eyes, willow leaf eyebrows, tall nose, oval face, fair skin, graceful and intellectual temperament, she is indeed a beautiful woman.
Ashamed, this is Xia Ping An's first time seeing what his wife looks like.
Mrs. Guo also had some surprises when she saw Xia Pingan's arrival. She knew that Cui Hao didn't like her to recite Buddhist scriptures at home. She was afraid that Xia Pingan would come again and destroy her Buddhist temple. The curtain in front was pulled up, and the face that was still calm just now, it suddenly became cold, and he was ready to say "stunned people"...
"Wait..." Xia Ping'an stepped into the Yuntang Hall to stop the maid from pulling up the curtain of the Buddhist altar, and looked up at the gilt bronze Buddha statue in the altar. Then, Mrs. Guo and the maid beside him were astonished. In his eyes, he came to the futon in front of the Buddhist altar, took three incense sticks, lit them, put them in the incense burner, then knelt in front of the Buddha statue, folded his hands together, and said in his mouth, "Please atone for the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the disciples were ignorant before. Destroying the Buddhist scriptures, the disciples came to confess. The previous sin karma, the disciples would like to publish and print ten thousand Buddhist scriptures to circulate widely for atonement!" After all, Xia Ping'an worshipped the Buddha statue for three times, and then gently stood up to Mrs. Xiao Guo. Said, "If Madam wants to worship Buddha and chant sutras in the future, you don't have to hide from me anymore, I support it!"
"What does your husband mean?" Although Mrs. Guo was shocked, she asked flatly. She really didn't believe that her husband had changed sex.
Xia Ping'an glanced at Madam Xiao Guo's personal maid, waved her hand gently, and let the maid leave. The maid glanced at Madam Guo, and Madam Guo nodded. Then the maid walked out of Yuntang and closed the door smoothly. NS.
"These days are a bit busy. I haven't seen Madam for a long time. I want to have a good chat with Madam. Please sit down, Madam!" Xia Ping'an came to Mrs. Guo and sat down on a chair. Mrs. Guo also sat down, thinking He settled for a while, his face calmed down, but he still looked at Xia Ping'an with suspicious eyes.
"Last time I burned Madame's Buddhist scriptures, opposed Madame's belief in Buddhism, and uttered bad words. I was wrong. One of the reasons my husband came to Yuntang today was to make amends to Madame!" Xia Ping'an stood up and faced Xiao Guo. The lady bowed slightly.
Mrs. Guo also quickly stood up to pay courtesy, and said politely, I didn't know my husband's admiration before. I chanted sutras at home and it was too improper. Don't blame my husband!
Listening to Mrs. Guo's words of "diplomatic politeness", Xia Ping'an could only smile bitterly, "Maybe Madam could hardly believe it for a while, but I did sincerely apologize to Madam. I used to think that the Buddha's doctrine is opposite. There is no Buddha. Tao, there is Tao, but there is no Buddha. In the last two days, I have come to understand that Buddhism and Taoism were originally a family, with red lotus and white lotus root and green lotus leaves. Dharma, all dharmas are Buddhism, and all dharmas are also Taoism. Buddhism seeks liberation. Taoism seeks freedom. All dharmas are based on benevolence. What is the difference? Hu also served as a preacher, and the saints of the three religions all came from the world, and now Buddhism has come to the east, and there is only one coming and going..."
Hearing Xia Ping'an say this, and seeing Xia Ping's apologetic sincere gaze, Mrs. Guo was really surprised. These words were impossible to say when Cui Hao was killed before. Who would dare to say a word of Buddhism, Cui Hao? Immediately he was going to sneer. For this, Cui Hao not only got stiff with himself, but also turned against his cousin Cui Yi and others.
Xia Ping'an's apology for seeing Mrs. Guo's gaze was not a pretense, but from the heart. Because of Cui Hao, Mrs. Guo was buried with him. Even the Guo family was killed. Cui Haoruo could not change. For his own destiny, the Guo family in Taiyuan found such a son-in-law to marry, which is tantamount to ruining the destiny of their entire family.
"Husband...why did your husband have such a big change?" Mrs. Guo asked curiously.
"The good teacher learned that, didn't I go out to relax recently? Just two days ago, I was out for fun, and I wandered into the forest to rest by myself. Suddenly I saw a monk from the Western Regions sitting under a tree. The monk's appearance Gao Gu, when he saw me without saying anything, he suddenly began to recite a Buddhist scripture. Madam knew my temper. I never liked Buddhist scriptures. When I heard the monk recite the scriptures, I turned around and wanted to leave. , But just after walking a few steps, I suddenly heard that the scriptures of the Buddhist scriptures of the monk were extremely similar to the teachings of the Confucian Analects. It coincided. I was very surprised at that time. I couldn't help but stayed where I was, waiting for the Western Region monk to finish memorizing the Buddhist scriptures..."
Mrs. Guo frowned slightly. She was familiar with many Buddhist scriptures translated by Wei Guo, and she didn't know which one Xia Pingan said. ?"
"Do not do to others what you don't want. This is from the "Analects of Confucius". I often put it on my lips to educate the disciples of the clan. Madam should know!"
"Yes, Not Bad!"
"I didn't expect that the Buddha actually said almost exactly the same thing as Kong Shengren..." Xia Ping'an had a shocked expression on his face.
"Oh, really, what are they?"
"...Good men, it is said that the bodhisattvas are not at their disposal and do not add to things. If the bodhisattvas guard this method, they are able to uphold all the precepts of the Buddha Tathagata. Why? Stealing, protecting one's wife and house should not invade him. If you wait and do so, you must have one method. Good men, if there are those who respect and obey the Tathagata, always remember this method. Why? Everyone who has done what he wants to seek peace and happiness, and even the Bodhisattva asks Aundola Sanya Sanbodhi, is also happy for himself and himself. Good man, with this righteousness, I say this: "It is not for oneself, not for things. "If there is a law, the bodhisattvas should always protect them!"
Xia Ping'an directly recites a section of the Buddhist scriptures, with emotion, "Listen, madam, the Buddha's teachings to the bodhisattvas are'not at one's own comfort, not adding to things,' which is the same as Confucius's teaching of Confucianism,'Don't do what you don't want. Isn't it the same as giving to others? When I heard this sentence in the forest that day, I felt shocked. It seemed that I understood all of a sudden and found that I had misunderstood Buddhism before..."
"It's not what one wants, and nothing is added to things... It's not what you want, and nothing is added to things..." Mrs. Guo's spirit was shocked. I don't want to do nothing to others..."
"Madam, it's more than that!" Xia Ping'an also came to the spirit, and immediately began to speak, "There are scriptures in the Buddhist scriptures that say this... Good man, as you asked, which one is the same? What do you feel now? Good man, there is no less dharma is Tathagata enlightenment. Why is it? Tathagata enlightenment has nothing to perceive. Good man, all dhamma without life is Tathagata enlightenment, all dhamma without extinguishment is Tathagata enlightenment, and all dharmas are divorced On the side is Tathagata consciousness, all dhammas are untrue Tathagata consciousness. Good man, all karma is Tathagata consciousness, all dharmas that arise from cause and condition are Tathagata consciousness. The law of cause and condition is like electric light is Tathagata consciousness, and all karma is Tathagata consciousness for cause and reason. Enlightenment... Good man, one aspect is Tathagata enlightenment. What cloud does one aspect? The so-called dharma does not come or go, neither cause nor condition, neither birth nor death, no choice or sacrifice, no increase nor decrease. Good man, The self-nature of the dharmas has nothing to say, it is not just the argument of words. If it is a dhamma, it is like coming and seeing."
Xia Ping'an casually recites another passage of scripture, Look, madam, this scripture is also invisible to what Lao Tzu said. It's a truth that Tao Ke Tao is very famous and very famous. At that time, I listened to the Western Regions. After the scriptures memorized by the monk, the whole person suddenly understood, and finally understood that Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism were originally a family, and finally realized how narrowly one was before, too obsessed with the view of the door and the difference between the name and the form, without insight into the three. I am ashamed to teach the true meaning behind it!"
Mrs. Guo gently frowned and mumbled to herself twice. She was also surprised, "Husband, I have read many Buddhist scriptures translated by Wei Guo, but none of the scriptures in the Buddhist scriptures are what the husband just said. I don't know these scriptures. Which Buddhist scripture does the text come from!"
Xia Ping'anxin said, of course you don't know now, this Buddhist scripture will not be translated until the Tang Dynasty.
"I was shocked at the time and asked the monk from the Western Regions what kind of sutra this is. The monk replied with a smile. This sutra has not yet been introduced to the country of Wei. I was the first person in the country to have the honor to hear this sutra. The name is "Mahayana Lizi Pu Guangming Tibetan Scripture"!"
As a devout Buddhist believer, Mrs. Guo became anxious when he heard that the Buddhist scriptures had not yet been introduced to the country of Wei. Unheard of, I wonder if my husband still remembers other parts of the Buddhist scriptures?"
"Madam knows that my memory has always been very good, and it is strange to say that after listening to the Western Region monk memorizing this Buddhist scripture, I remembered the entire Buddhist scripture in my head, and the Western Region monk disappeared for some reason. I came to see Madam today, and I was about to give this sutra to Madam and share it with Madam!"
Xia Ping'an said, opening the wooden box he had brought, and took out a thin book that was beautifully bound on the wooden box and handed it to Mrs. Guo.
Mrs. Guo opened the Buddhist scriptures, and just glanced at the scriptures in the book, and she couldn't put it down, her eyes lighted up.
But in a blink of an eye, Mrs. Guo also discovered the abnormality of this Buddhist scripture. This Buddhist scripture was not copied, but printed, and it was printed very beautifully. The text of the scriptures are neatly arranged and beautiful in shape. Look It looks pleasing to the eye. Few Buddhist scriptures that can be seen on the market can be printed so beautifully.
"Husband, why is this Buddhist scripture so exquisite?"
Xia Ping'an smiled slightly, and finally said his second purpose of looking for Mrs. Guo, "Ahem, this is the second thing I came to see Mrs. Guo today. I have a business here and I want to give it to the Guo family. With the Guo family taking care of it, this business will be done. Reading people all over the world can see such exquisite books, and the price can be cheaper. The Guo family can become the world's largest bookseller. "
"Ah, what kind of business is it, so powerful!" Mrs. Guo is not an ordinary woman. As a woman from Guo's family too far away, she naturally knows how much benefit the entire family will be brought to the family once Guo's becomes the world's largest bookseller. In the Wei state, it's not a shame for wealthy families to do business. As long as they can make money, some people go to do it~www.mtlnovel.com~ Seeing that the pawnshops in the temple can make money, the royal family will open pawnshops, so-called emperor. It's much better to start a pawnshop and be a bookseller.
"Madam, this is the business..." Xia Ping'an opened one of the wooden boards under his box, and saw that under that wooden board were wood-carved movable type seals. These seals were arranged together to form an article.
"Why are these words one by one, you can still move..."
Xia Ping'an changed the two movable words at will, "Madam is smart, you know at a glance that you should know the mystery of this..."
Following Xia Ping's explanation, Mrs. Guo immediately understood the mystery of this movable type printing, her eyes gleaming, and the look in Xia Ping's eyes was completely different.
"Such a business is unique in the world. Whoever is in control is in control of the great benefits. Is the husband really willing to let the state run it?"
"My wife and I were originally a family. The Cui family and the Guo family are also one family. How can we distinguish each other? Madam, don't worry about this matter. Madam finds time to go back to the Guo family, and I will do it too. Write a letter to father-in-law, let him know how to do it..."
