ten East Palace This year, because of the new funeral of the emperor, the imperial feast and the great tasting meeting [1] were not held. On December 24, the prince born in the Jianchun Gate Court [2], which was also known as Dongfangjun at that time, was established as the The prince is Prince Xianren.In the second year, Yuan Ren'an was changed, and on October 8 of that year, Prince Xianren was established as the prince of the East Palace, and the site of the palace was Dongsantiao.Dong Gong was the uncle of Emperor Rokujo at that time, who was only six years old; the Emperor was Dong Gong's nephew, only three years old; the order of seniority was reversed.However, in the second year of Kanwa (986), Emperor Yiyi ascended the throne at the age of seven, and later Emperor Sanjo became the East Palace at the age of eleven. This can be regarded as an example to follow.The current Emperor Rokujo ascended the throne at the age of two, and this year he abdicated to the Eastern Palace at the age of five.The East Palace was enthroned on February 19th, and it was called Xinyuan, and Emperor Xun had the title of Supreme Emperor before the crowning ceremony. This kind of thing is the first in both China and Japan.

On March 20th in the third year of Ren'an, Emperor Takakura ascended the throne in Taiji Hall.The emperor took the throne, marking the pinnacle of prosperity for the Heira family.The mother of the country, Jianchun Menin, is the sister of Mrs. Erpin [3], the wife of the Heike family who entered the Taoist country.Da Nayan Zhong is usually her eldest brother, the lord's relative, very powerful in the court, all titles and officials are determined by Shi Zhongqing.When Concubine Yang Guifei was favored in the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guozhong's power was overwhelmed, which is exactly the same as this incident.The admiration of the world, the wealth and splendor at that time were really hot.The Daoist Prime Minister should also discuss and decide with him on the handling of major and minor matters in the DPRK and China.At that time, people called Shi Zhongqing Ping Guanbai.

-------------------------- 【1】The Imperial Wedge is a ritual ceremony held before the Great Tasting Meeting after the Emperor ascended the throne.The Great Tasting Meeting is the first new tasting meeting held after ascension to the throne, and the new valley is dedicated to the gods and the earth. 【2】Kenchunmonin, formerly known as Hirako, is the daughter of Nobuhira and the younger sister of Hirakiyomori's wife Hirako; she is the concubine of Emperor Goshirakawa, and the son born to him ascended the throne as Emperor Takakura, so the emblem was named Jianchunmonin. [3] Mrs. Erpin, the original text is Errendian, referring to Ping Qingsheng's wife Pingzi.She was second in rank and later became Emperor Takakura's mother-in-law.

-------------------------- eleven Compete with His Highness On July 16th, the first year of Jiaying (1169), Emperor Hou Baihe became a monk.But after becoming a monk, he still took charge of the government, and there was no difference between the courtyard [1] and the palace.The ministers and ministers used in the courtyard, as well as the guards and warriors, all have very generous official positions and salaries.However, people's hearts are always insatiable. Like-minded people often get together and express their feelings to each other: "Well, if someone dies, there will be a vacancy for that country guard; if there is no such person, I can make up for it." "The emperor also said in private: "There are many people who put down chaos in the past, but there has never been one like the Ping family. Ping Zhensheng and Fujiwara Xiuxiang wiped out the Ping Shoumen, Minamoto Laiyi wiped out Anbe Zhenren and Zong Ren, the Minamoto Yoshi family destroyed Qingyuan Wuheng and Zongheng, and rewards for meritorious deeds are just local state guards. Now Qingsheng is acting recklessly and recklessly, which is really counterintuitive. Now it is the end of the age of Buddhism, and the law of kings has declined It's time." Although he said this behind his back, because he didn't have a proper opportunity, he didn't warn the Heike family, and the Heike family didn't have any dissatisfaction with the court, but disturbing things in the world happened frequently.On October 16th of the second year of Jiaying, the second son of Lord Xiaosong, the new three lieutenant general Zi Shengqing, was serving as Echizen guard at the time. He was only thirteen years old. A number of young warriors set off from Liantaiye and Chaye on horseback to Youjin Racecourse, where they sent out many hawks to hunt quail and skylarks. They hunted all day and did not return to Liupoluo until dusk.

At that time, the Regency Pine Palace [2] just entered the palace from the mansion of the East Dongyuan of the Zhongyu Gate.He should enter Da Nei through Yufang Gate, so he has to go south from Dongdongyuan, and then go west from Dachui Yumen.Walking to the Zhu Xiong's place at the Imperial Gate of the Dacui, Zi Sheng happened to meet His Royal Highness【3】Lu Bu.The regent's entourage hurriedly shouted: "Who dares to be so rude! Your Highness is passing by here, hurry up and get off your horse! Get off your horse!" But Zi Sheng was very arrogant, as if he didn't pay attention to everything in the world , the group of warriors under him were all young men under the age of 20, and they didn't know the rules of dismounting to salute at all, so no matter what your Highness is, instead of dismounting to salute, they wanted to rush over.It was dusk at this time, no one recognized that the person on the horse was the grandson of Lord Rudao, or even if someone recognized him, they pretended not to know, so they pulled Zi Shengqing and the warriors off the horse, wantonly humiliating them.Zi Shengqing returned to Liupoluo in a state of embarrassment, and reported the matter to the Prime Minister of Taoism, who was very annoyed and said: "Even Your Highness, you should be cautious about the members of the Jinghai family, and you don't care about young children. It's really annoying to humiliate without mercy. If something like this happens, you will be looked down upon from now on. Your Highness should realize this, and you must take revenge on Your Highness." After hearing this, Chong Shengqing said: "No, This is nothing to be concerned about. It would be a disgrace to the Heike family if they were bullied by members of the Minamoto clan such as Raizheng and Mitsuki. Now it is Shigemori's son who does not know how to get off his horse to pay respects when he is traveling with His Highness. This is very rude. Later, he called together the relevant warriors and warned: "From now on, you must be more careful, and I have to apologize to Your Highness!" After finishing speaking, he went back.

Later, the Prime Minister of Taoism did not discuss with Mr. Komatsu, so he called together more than 60 people, including the samurai Namba Jiro Keito and Seo Taro Kenyasu.The Duke of Taoism said to them: "On the 21st of this month, His Highness the Regent is going to the palace to discuss the lord's coronation ceremony. You go and find a place to wait on the road, cut off all the buns of the attendants, and wash the snow. Zi Sheng's humiliation." His Highness never dreamed that such a thing would happen.In order to discuss the crowning ceremony, coronation, and worship of officials next year, you need to go to the regent's mansion in the palace first. Therefore, this day is more solemn than usual. The door goes west.Beside the Inokuma Hori River, more than 300 riders from Liuboluo, all in full armor, were waiting there. These people surrounded His Highness, and shouted at the same time, chasing those servants who were particularly neatly dressed today, and ran around. Pull them all off their horses, humiliate them wantonly, and cut off their buns one by one.There were a total of ten attendants, among them, the Fusheng [4] Wuji of Ukinwei Prefecture had his bun cut off.When cutting off the hair bun of the Tibetan doctor [5] Fujiwara Takao, he also specially warned him: "Don't think this is cutting your hair bun, this is cutting your master's hair bun." He went to the cart, pulled down the curtain on the cart, and cut off the front and rear nooses of the bullock cart.After making a mess, he shouted happily and returned to Liuboluo.After hearing this, Mr. Shinto said, "Good job." One of the attendants accompanying the car was a former envoy of Inaba. His name was Kunikumaru, and his hometown was in Toba. He is shallow, but very affectionate, he cried all the way to serve His Highness's royal chariot, and returned to Zhongyumen's mansion.I really don't know how to describe the procession that wipes eyes and tears with the sleeves of solemn dresses and returns weeping like this.Needless to say, in the era of Dazhiguan[7] and Danhaigong; even the regents Guanbai since Zhongrengong and Zhaoxuangong[8] have never encountered such a thing.This is the beginning of Heike's evil deeds.

When Mr. Xiaosong found out about this, he was horrified.He punished all the warriors who participated in the incident, and said: "Mr. Rudao issued such an extremely unwise order. Chongsheng never even dreamed of it. It's all because of Zisheng's ignorance. The Buddhist scriptures say that the sandalwood grows twice. It emits fragrance when it is a leaf [9]. Zisheng is now twelve or thirteen years old. He should know etiquette and act according to etiquette. Now he has done such a stupid thing and caused the Taoist priest to bear such a bad name. It is really unfilial. The crime of Zisheng alone." Afterwards, Zisheng was sent to Ise temporarily.All the monarchs and ministers expressed their appreciation for Chongsheng's handling.

-------------------------- [1] It is the place where the emperor works, and the emperor Houbaihe is also known as the first courtyard. [2] That is Fujiwara Jifang, which is named after the place of residence to show respect. 【3】Your Highness was originally the respectful title for Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, Empress, and Crown Prince, and was later extended to Regent.The Fujiwara family has been the emperor's relatives for generations, and they are very powerful, so the world treats each other as a royal family and respectfully calls them His Highness. [4] is a low-level official of Weifu.

[5] The Tibetan Institute is an institution that enshrines the emperor's daily life and is in charge of ceremonies, festivals and other palace affairs, and its chief is called a doctor. [6] It is the person who was sent to the local area to convey instructions to the officials before the State Secretary took office. 【7】The large weaving crown is the ancestor of the Fujiwara clan, Fujiwara Kamazu.Japan's thirty-sixth emperor Kotoku (reigned from 596 to 654) established the system of clothing and crowns, and the big weaving crown ranked first. [8] Duke Zhongren is Fujiwara Ryobo, and Duke Zhaoxuan is Fujiwara Jijing.They are all posthumous titles.

【9】See "The Sutra of Viewing the Buddha's Three Flavors of the Sea", which means that a great man is extraordinary since he was a child. -------------------------- twelve deer valley Because of this incident, the original plan to discuss the Tiantian Crown Ceremony had to be postponed. On the 25th, a meeting was held at the temple where the Emperor Houbaihe lived.Naturally, there should be rewards for the regent, so he announced the decree on November 9th and was promoted to Minister of the Grand Prix on the 14th.On the 17th of the same month, a Gratitude Ceremony was held.However, the public's response to this incident seems to be very cold.

And so the year passed.The second year was the third year of Jiaying (1171). The emperor's coronation ceremony was held on the fifth day of the first lunar month, and the emperor and empress dowager made a pilgrimage on the thirteenth day.The Emperor who accepted the pilgrimage [1] and Jianchunmen Temple [2] were very happy to see the emperor in formal attire.The daughter of Tao Xiangguo [3] was registered as the imperial concubine. She was only fifteen years old, and she was regarded as the adopted daughter of the French emperor. At that time, Miaoyinyuan [4] Taizheng Minister Fujiwara Mr. Fujiwara, who was also the minister and leader of the left general, wanted to resign from the left general.In terms of qualifications, Da Nayan Shidingqing of Tokudaiji Temple should fill this gap; Nayan and Yaqing of Huashanyuan are also quite hopeful; in addition, the third son of the late Zhongyumen Fuji Dai Nayan family Chengqing— ——Xinda Nayancheng Qinqing also wants to get this position.Because he was a confidant of the Pope, he began to say various prayers.He summoned a hundred monks in Hachiman Palace in Shiqingshui to recite all six hundred volumes of the Great Prajna Sutra for seven days. During this period, three mountain doves flew from the direction of Mt. 】On the orange tree in front, they pecked at each other, and they all died in the end.The inspector Kuangqing Fayin [6], who is in charge of the affairs of the temple, said: "Jiu is the first messenger of the Hachiman Bodhisattva, and this kind of vision should not appear in palace temples [7]."The superiors asked the gods to perform divination, saying that this omen indicates that there will be riots, but it is not from the king, but from the ministers.Shindai Nagon didn't care about this sign, because there were many people during the day, he went out every night, walked from Nakamimon Karasuma's house to Kamigamo Shrine, and visited for seven nights in a row.On the night when I finally fulfilled my wish, I returned to my residence after visiting the shrine. I felt very tired. As soon as I closed my eyes, I dreamed that I had arrived at Kamigamo Shrine. As soon as I opened the door of the treasure hall, a terrible voice said: Sakura, don't complain about the wind on the Kamo River, It can't stop the flowers from wilting. Shindai Nayan did not wake up because of this, and built an altar in the cedar tree hole behind the treasure hall of Kamigamo Shrine, and asked an eminent monk to perform Najini method [8] and pray for him continuously for one hundred days.But during this time, lightning struck a large cedar tree, which caught fire and nearly destroyed the temple.Many priests came to put out the fire.They wanted to drive away the monk who practiced evil methods, but he said: "I have made a great vow to pray in this shrine continuously for 100 days. Today is only 75 days, and I can't go out yet." move.The priests reported the situation to the palace, and a decree was passed down: "Drive him out according to the law!" So the priest hit the monk on the back of the neck with a white wooden stick prepared just in case, and drove him out. Go south on a major road.As the saying goes: "God does not enjoy injustice." Da Nayan prayed because he wanted to become a general, so he did such a ridiculous thing. At that time, it was not at the will of the emperor, nor was it decided by the regent Kanbai, but by the Heike family. Therefore, there was no qualification to add officials to Tokudaiji and Huashandian, but the eldest son Komatsu, who had entered the Taoist country, was appointed by the Daoist minister. It is too unreasonable to transfer the right general of Nayan to the left general, and the second son Zong Shengzhong Nayan surpassed those with more senior qualifications to fill the vacancy of the right general. Among them, Lord Tokudaiji is the Chief Dainagon. He has a noble family, outstanding talents and learning, and he is the heir of the same family. This time he was surpassed by the second son Zongsheng of the ordinary Heike family, and he was naturally resentful.People discussed in private: "Are you going to become a monk?" But he said he had to wait and see the situation, so he just resigned from Da Nayan and retired.However, Xindan Nayancheng relative said: "If it was surpassed by Tokudaiji Temple or Huashanyuan, then of course there is nothing to say. This time, I am really unwilling to be surpassed by the second son of the Heike family, Zongsheng. I should find a way to destroy it. Heike, please make my wish come true." This kind of intention is really terrible.Cheng Qinqing's father was only in Zhongnayan. He is the youngest son, but he has been promoted to the second position. Did you come up with such an idea? This is probably the work of the devil.During the Heiji Rebellion[9], he was Echigo Guard and Lieutenant General of the Guards, a similar kind of Minister of Trust, who was already sentenced to death, but was able to save his life after many efforts by Lord Komatsu and Minister Shigemori.But now he has forgotten this kindness, prepared weapons in a very secret place, gathered soldiers, and devoted himself to planning the crusade against the Ping clan. At the foot of Dongshan Mountain, there is a place called Lugu, which is connected to Mijing Temple at the back. There is a heavily guarded city, which is the villa of Junkuan Monk Capital [10].Marriage and others often gather there, planning how to destroy the Heike family.One day the Emperor of Japan also went on a parade there, accompanied by Fujiwara Tsutsuken's son Jing Xianyin.At the banquet in the evening, the Pope talked about this matter to Jingxian and others, and Jingxian said: "Oh, it's terrible, so many people have heard it, and it will soon be leaked, and it will become a major event that shocks the world. "Xin Da Nayan was very upset when he heard this, and suddenly stood up, when the sleeve of the hunting clothes brought the wine bottle in front of the emperor down.The Emperor asked, "What's the matter?" Da Nayan came back to his senses and said, "The bottle (Ping's family) has fallen!" The Emperor laughed and said, "Let's play the music of apes [11], everyone." Judge Ping came out and said, "Ah, because there are too many bottles (Ping's), I'm drunk." Junkuan and monks said, "Then, what should we do?" Master Xiguang said, "The only way is to take off the head. , that's better than anything else." Then he knocked off the bottleneck and left the table.Seeing his madness, Jing Xianyin was very surprised, and had nothing to say, but felt very terrible.Those accomplices include Omi Lieutenant General Lianjing, commonly known as Chengya, Fasheng Temple Executive [12] Junkuan Sengdu, Shancheng Shouzhongyuan Jijian, Shibu Daifu Yagang, Pingjuan Kanglai, Zongjuguan Xinfang, Shinpei judge Zixing, Genji Tadazura of Settsu country, and many samurai from the Imperial Guard also participated. -------------------------- [1] That is, Empress Baihe. 【2】See Note 2 of Section 10 of Volume One. 【3】See Note 16, Section 5, Volume 1. [4] Miaoyinyuan is Mr. Fujiwara, and it is named because of its mansion, which is called Miaoyintang. [5] Gaoliang Shrine is located in a corner of Shiqingshan Hachiman, and the god enshrined is Takeuchi Sukune. [6] is the title of the first monk official, followed by Fayan and Faqiao. 【7】Gongji Temple is a temple attached to the shrine, here refers to Hachimangu Temple. 【8】It belongs to a secret method of Esoteric Buddhism. It is a kind of heresy and heresy in the eyes of ordinary Buddhism. [9] The Pingzhi Rebellion occurred in the first year of Pingzhi, see Note 13, Section 5, Volume 1.Emperor Goshirakawa favored Fujiwara Tongken (after he became a monk, his dharma name was Shinsai), Fujiwara believed in wanting to be a general of the guards, but was blocked by Tongxian, so he made a mess with Minamoto and others, imprisoned the emperor, killed Tongxian, and made peace Qingsheng was defeated, and both Trust and Yichao were killed.Because Fujiwara's younger sister is Shigemori's wife, and Shigemori's son Weimori and Qingjing's wife are both married daughters, Shigenmori tried his best to rescue him from crime. [10] The monks are the deputy of the monk who is in charge of Buddhist affairs in the country. [11] Yuanle, said to be the transliteration of Sanyue, is an acrobatics introduced from China to Japan in the Tang Dynasty. 【12】Execution is the head of the affairs of the whole temple. -------------------------- Thirteen Ugawa Fighting Junkan, the executive officer of Fasheng Temple, is the grandson of Genda Nayan Ya Junqing of Kyogoku, and the son of Mudera Hoyin Kanya.Grandfather Dai Nayan was originally a military commander and had a very violent temper. He forbade others to walk in front of the Kyogoku mansion where he lived, and usually stood at the middle gate, gnashing his teeth and glaring at the surroundings.Because his grandfather was so violent, even though Jun Kuan became a monk, his temperament is still strong and arrogant.Perhaps it was because of this that he participated in this treasonous plan. The relatives of Xinda Nayancheng called Tada Zangren Xinggang to him and said: "I will ask you to be a general who stands alone. After the matter is completed, you can choose the land and manor. You first use this as the material for the bow bag." ’” and gave him fifty bolts of white cloth. On March 5th in the third year of Anyuan (1177), Mr. Fujiwara, the Minister of Miaoyin Academy, was promoted to the Minister of Taizheng.It is really gratifying and congratulatory for a minister to serve as a general, so a big celebration banquet was held, and the main guest was Jing Zonggong, the minister on the right of the imperial gate.Miaoyinyuan was supposed to be promoted to the position of Minister of the Left, but he was promoted in this way because he avoided his father's taboo of evil Zuo Fu. There were no warriors in the north [2] in ancient times. Since Emperor Baihe set up this position during his reign, most of the people in the Six Guards were assigned here.Weijun and Shengzhong, known as Senjumaru and Imainoumaru since childhood, were the most proud celebrities at that time.In the era of Emperor Toba, Ji Jiao, Ji Lai and his son served in the ban, and they were responsible for giving the emperor's instructions and playing back, etc., which was quite safe.However, the northern samurai in the post-Emperor Baihe era no longer kept their duties. They gradually disregarded the ministers and the court officials, and they did not follow etiquette and etiquette.From the bottom to the top of the north, and from the top to the permission to walk on the temple, so the arrogance grew day by day, so that he dared to participate in evil plots.Among them are two subordinates of the old Shao Nayan Xinxi, one named Shiguang and the other named Chengjing.Shi Guang is a member of the Abo State's State Affairs Office, and Cheng Jing is a native of the capital, originally a servant of humble origin.They have been young athletes [3] or diligent people [4]. Because of their cleverness, Shi Guang was promoted to Zuoemon Captain, and Cheng Jing was promoted to Right Gate Captain.Later, the lord Shinsei died in the Heiji Rebellion, and both of them became monks, one named Zaemon Nimodo Xiko, and the other Uemon Nichido Saikyo.After becoming a monk, he still served as the guard of the Royal Palace in the Imperial Palace. Xiguang has a son named Shigao, who is also a shrewd and capable person. He Shou.In the process of exercising local administrative power, he ignored national legal precedents, confiscated shrines, Buddhist temples, and manors of wealthy families at will, and committed a lot of violations of law and discipline.Even though it was very far away from the time of Zhao Gong[6], at least it was better to deal with things in a stable manner, but he acted recklessly.In the summer of the second year of Anyuan, Kondo Tankan Shikei, the brother of Kokushi Shigao, replaced Kaga as the deputy governor of Kaga. On his way to the post, he came to a mountain temple in Ugawa near Kaga Prefecture. The monks in the temple were boiling water for bathing. After entering the temple, drive away the monks, wash the horses alone, and then ask the followers to come down to wash the horses.The monks said angrily: "Officials of the Guosi have never come to this temple. Please follow the old rules, don't mess around, and go out!" The acting state secretary now is not like that, he only knows how to act according to the law." Hearing what he said, the two sides refused to give in, so a fight broke out, and one leg of Shijing's beloved horse was immediately discounted.Then they each took their bows and arrows and swords, and fought for a while.Shi Jing saw that he could not win, and saw that it was getting dark, so he withdrew.Afterwards, more than 1,000 cavaliers and warriors from the Kaga government were gathered to attack Ugawa and burn down the temple.The temple in Ugawa is the last temple in Baishan【7】. Among them are the old monks Zhishi, Xueming, Baotaifang, Zhengzhi, Xueyin, Tosa Acharya, etc. They all advocated that the matter should be reported to the court.The monks from the Eighth Court of the Three Society of Baishan [8] heard the news and gathered more than 2,000 people. On the evening of July 9, they rushed to the vicinity of the residence of the acting Guosi Shijing.Seeing that it was already getting late, he decided to start the battle tomorrow, and there was no attack that night, and he was temporarily stationed there to rest.Look at the scene: with the dew in the autumn wind, the left sleeve of the battle robe flutters; the lightning in the sky, and the stars on the helmet are brilliant.Shi Jing estimated that it would be difficult to resist, so he quietly fled to the capital overnight.On the second day at Maoshi [9], those monks rushed forward with shouts, but there was no sound in the mansion.He asked someone to go in and check it out, and they said that they had all escaped.The monks had no choice but to withdraw. It was proposed to go to the mountain gate to file a complaint.So I decorated the mikoshi [10] in the Hakusan Nakagu, and carried it to Mt. Hiei.At around noon [11] on August 12th, when the Mikoshi of Hakusan was about to arrive at Sakamoto, Hiei Mountain, suddenly there was thunder in the northern sky, shaking the sky and coming towards the capital. Inside, even the evergreen trees in the mountains turned white. -------------------------- [1] That is, the left minister, Fujiwara Yorimaga, who fought for power with his brother Zhongtong, caused the Baoyuan Rebellion, and died in Zhongliuya.The mansion is in Uji, and his temperament is violent, so it is called Uji's Evil Zuo Mansion. [2] That is, the guards set up on the north side of the emperor's palace. [3] The original text is Jianer, which means young Jianer, who is a low-level warrior who guards the State Department. 【4】It is a low-level samurai who guards the prince and minister's house. 【5】The ritual of chasing ghosts on New Year's Eve is to appoint officials.After chasing Nuo every year, a group of officials will be appointed. 【6】He regards the era of Zhaogong as a model of benevolent government, which may be based on the meaning of "Zhaobo's teachings are clear in the southern countries". [7] refers to Yongquan Temple, which belongs to one of the eight temples of Baishan. [8] Three shrines and eight courtyards: Biegong, Zoro, and Zhonggong are called Zhonggong Sanshe; Longming Temple, Yongquan Temple, Changkuan Temple, Shanxing Temple, Changlong Temple, Huguo Temple, Songgu Temple, Lianhua Temple Temple, known as the Eight Temples of the Palace. 【9】Mao time is six o'clock in the morning. 【10】The shrine is the shrine used by the gods every time they go on tour. Usually they go on tour regularly. This time it was carried out temporarily by the monks of the monastery, which means to demonstrate and petition.As usual, gods should be placed in shrines. This is not a statue of a god, but an object related to gods, such as an ancient bronze mirror, or a tree or a stone. Because it belongs to the secret of Shintoism, ordinary people are not allowed to peep.In Japan, Shintoism and Buddhism were separated after the Meiji Restoration. In the Middle Ages, the theory of "local traces" prevailed, thinking that Japan's Shintoism and heroes are all manifestations of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.In this way Buddhism and Shinto become one. [11] Noon is twelve o'clock at noon. -------------------------- fourteen make a wish The mikoshi was carried into the guest palace [1] in Mount Hiei.This guest palace is the palace where Baishan Miaoliquan appeared, and Baishan Zhonggong is a father-son relationship, so not to mention the victory or defeat of this lawsuit, it is also a gratifying event for the two gods who were father and son to meet .This should be even happier than Urashima Taro [2] meeting the grandson of the seventh generation, Rahula [3] who was still in the mother's womb when Sakyamuni became a monk, and later saw his father in Lingshan.The 3,000 monks from the mountain gate came one after another, and the priests from the Seventh Society of the Mountain King [4] also came, reading scriptures and praying continuously. The monks in the mountain gate asked the Emperor to exile the country's chief minister, Kaga Shoushi, and sent the deputy governor, Kondo, Judge Shijing to prison for punishment, but the emperor did not make a ruling for a long time.Those high-ranking ministers and officials in the court discussed in private: "Oh, hurry up and settle down. The lawsuits at the Shanmen have always been unusual. Although the Fang of the Great Cangqing and the Dazai Quanshuai Ji Zhong [5] are both from the court. The important minister was also sentenced to exile because of the accusation of the mountain gate. A lowly person like Shigao is nothing, so there is no need to think about it so carefully." However, the so-called "ministers value salary and do not speak out, and small ministers do not speak out in fear of crime." , so no one spoke to the Emperor. "The water of Kamo River, the dice of Shuangliu, and the mage of Mt. Hiei, these are all things I can't follow my heart." Emperor Shirakawa once said such words in the past.When Emperor Toba was in power, he used the Hiraizumi Temple in Echizen as a lower court to which the gate belonged. The emperor respected the gate very much.Dazai Quanshuai Dajiang Kuangfang once asked the emperor of Baihe: "If the monks of the mountain gate brought the gods to the palace gate to dispute the lawsuit, how should we deal with it?" The emperor said: "The lawsuit filed by the mountain gate cannot be ignored." On March 2, the second year of Jiabao (1095), Mino Shouyuan Yoshizuna killed the mage Yuanying who had practiced in Mount Hiei for many years in order to abolish the newly built manor in the local area.So more than 30 priests from Hiyoshi Shrine and monks from Enryaku Temple rushed to the gate of the palace with the memorial to Yoshitsuna.The latter Nijo Kanbai Teng Genshitong ordered Yamato Genji Zhongfu Shaofu Laichun [6] to stop them.Lai Chun's soldiers killed eight people and wounded more than ten others, and the remaining priests and monks scattered and fled.The senior monks at the mountain gate [7] were about to go to Beijing to face the imperial court. When they heard the news, the samurai and Jian Fei went to Nishi Sakamoto to stop them. Because the imperial court did not make a ruling, the monks of the Sanmen brought the gods of the Sanno Seven Shrines and gathered in the root middle hall of Mount Hiei [8], where they recited the "Maha Prajna Sutra" for seven days to curse Guanbai.On the last day, it was Zhongyin Fayin who presided over the chanting, which was called Zhongyin worship at that time. He ascended the high seat and recited the prayer while beating the gong.The prayer said: "I wait for all the gods and gods who have been worshiped and worshiped since childhood. Please shoot a loud arrow at Guan Bai! The eighth prince will appear!" After the prayer was recited aloud, something miraculous happened that night.People dreamed that a loud arrow flew out from the shrine of the eight princes and galloped towards the king's city.The next morning, when Guan Bai was opening the window, he found a dewy weed that seemed to have just been picked from the mountain[9]. This was a very frightening thing.Shortly thereafter, Ertiao Guanbai fell seriously ill, and people said it was the retribution for offending the mountain king.His mother, the wife of Regent Guan Bai Shishi, was deeply saddened by this, so she disguised herself as a humble woman, lived in Hiji Shrine, and prayed continuously for seven days and seven nights.The forms of prayer on the surface include: open field music [10] 100 performances, sacrificial procession [11] 100 performances, horse racing, Yabusame [12], and sumo wrestling each 100 performances, Nioh lectures [13] 100 seats There are 100 pharmacist lectures, 100 pharmacist statues one and a half tall, and 1 life-sized pharmacist statue. In addition, a Buddha statue of Shakya Amitabha was also made for worship and offering.At the same time, she made three big wishes in her heart.Of course, others will not know what is in her heart, but it is strange that on the night of the seventh day when her wish was fulfilled, among the bustling worshipers, there was a little witch who came from far away in Mutsu. Died.When they carried her outside and prayed for her, she woke up immediately, stood up and sang and danced, and everyone looked at her with great amazement.After dancing for about half an hour, the king of the mountain appeared on her body, and said all kinds of revelations, which was very frightening.She said: "All living beings, listen carefully, Mrs. Shi Shigong, she has been praying in front of my hall for seven days. She made three big wishes. The first is to ask to save Guan Bai Shitong's life. She made a vow that if she could To save her son, she will serve the mountain king for a thousand days and nights together with the disabled people who worship Buddha in the lower hall. She is the wife of Shi Shigong, and she has never looked down on the world. Now she is so eager for her son that she Forgetting the filth and filth, I would rather be among the humble and disabled, and serve the king of the mountain for a thousand days. The monks disregarded the hard work of coming and going to pay homage. This is indeed a kind deed. The third is that if Guan Baishitong can save her life, she will hold a question-and-answer lecture on the Fahua [14] in the club of Bawang Temple, which will be uninterrupted every month. The vows are not unusual. Leaving aside the first two, I really hope that there will be a question-and-answer lecture on the Fahua every day. This dispute should have been easily resolved, but not only was it not adjudicated, but many priests and monks were killed and injured. , They cried and told me that it is really pitiful and pathetic, and this will never be forgotten. Moreover, the arrows that hit them were shot at the God of Heguang and Weeping Trail [15]. Is this the case? Look here to understand It's gone." As he said, he took off his clothes, only to see a wound the size of a bowl under his left rib.The king of the mountain went on to say: "Because this matter is really unforgivable, no matter what kind of vows you make, it is hard to undo it, but if you can indeed hold a Fahua question and answer lecture, you can give him another three years of life. If you still feel dissatisfied, then there is nothing I can do." It's over." After saying that, the mountain king ascended to heaven and left.The wish that the mother made was never told to anyone, and no one asked her, but it was revealed when the mountain king descended, which moved her deeply and made her more devout.She cried and said, "Even if I extend my life for a day and a half, I am very grateful, not to mention extending my life for three years, it is even more rare." Then she went down the mountain.He hurried back to the capital and dedicated Tanaka Village in Jiyi Country, the Guanbai-collar area, to the Bawang Temple.Since then, Fahua question-and-answer lectures have been held at Bawang Temple every day without interruption. Because of this, Fujiwara Sekibakushi's illness gradually eased, and his body returned to its previous state. Everyone was very happy.But the three years passed away like a dream. In the second year of Yongchang, on June 21st, Shi Tonggong developed a malignant sore on his temple and was bedridden. He died on the 27th of that month. Thirty-eight years old.He has an agitated temperament and a stubborn nature, usually surpassing ordinary people, but when he is critically ill, his usual temperament has completely changed, and he is bitterly attached to life, which may be human nature.It is really sad and pitiful to let the white-haired parents give up the black-haired ones at the age of less than forty.Although there is no definite rule that a father should die earlier than his son, it is the common sense in the world to obey the fixed number of life and death. Even the world-honored one with perfect merits and virtues, and the Bodhisattva who has lived through the ten bliss [16] have nothing to do about it.In order to save all living beings, the merciful mountain king sometimes punishes those who have committed crimes. -------------------------- 【1】At the foot of Mt.

Therefore, the routine rituals of Hiyoshi Shrine every April were also cancelled. In the third year of Anyuan On the thirteenth day of the fourth month at the quarter of a hour, the shrines of the ten Zen masters, guests, and Hachioji Sansha were decorated and carried to the gate of the palace.在垂松、切堤、贺茂河原、纠森、梅忠、柳原、东北院一带,到处都是下级僧众、神官、神宫中的杂役、下法师等,简直不计其数。神舆从一条大街向西行进,使得所经街巷顿生光辉,有如日月落地。朝廷命源平两家的大将军防守四面宫门,防止僧众侵入宫中。平家由小松内大臣左大将重盛公率领三千余人,守卫宫廷前面的阴明、待贤、郁芳三门;他的兄弟宗盛、知盛、重衡,叔父赖盛、教盛、经盛等,防守西南的宫门。源氏则有大内守护源三位赖政卿【1】,渡边省【2】和他的儿子授为主将,统领三百余人,固守北边的门户缝殿一带,由于那里地面宽阔,而他们的兵力又少,因此显得人影寥寥。 僧众见那边兵力薄弱,就打算从北门缝殿【3】防地将神舆抬进去。赖政卿是非常精明的人,便跳下马来,摘下头盔,向神舆礼拜,兵丁们也都跟着行礼。随后他派一个使者到僧众中去传达朝廷旨意。这使者是渡边的人,名叫长七唱,他那天穿的是青中带黄的麴霉色长袍,黄色的铠甲,上缀小樱花型的革片,挎一柄用赤铜装饰的大刀,背一筒白翎箭,胁下挂着藤缠的弓。他脱去头盔,挂在肩头的纽结上,在神舆前跪下说道:“诸位僧众,源三位公叫我来传达几句话。这次山门提出的诉讼,当然是十分有理的,但朝廷迟迟不下裁决,在旁观者看来也觉得非常遗憾。至于你们抬神舆进宫,对此我们也没什么异议,只是赖政兵力单薄,假如开了这宫门进去,日后会给人留下话柄,让京中的年轻人说'山门的僧众连眼皮都没有抬一下就笑嘻嘻地走进宫中了'。放神舆进宫是有违诏旨的,如果进行阻挡呢,那就难免冒犯我们一向崇奉的医王山王【4】,从此以后也就只能和弓矢告别了。这事的确让我们左右为难。东边的阵地由小松公率重兵防守,还是请众僧从那边进去吧。”长七唱这样说了,神官和杂役一时迟疑不决,其中有个年轻人说道:“哪有这么多计较,就从这里抬进去吧。”但是有一个比睿山各寺院最有计谋的老僧,叫摄津竖者【5】豪运,出来说道:“他说的很有道理。我们既然抬了神舆前来诉讼,只有冲破重兵把守,才能名闻后世。还有,这赖政卿是六孙王【6】的后裔,源氏的嫡系正统,自从统领兵马以来不曾听说有过失败,不只是武艺,就连咏歌也很有造诣。近卫天皇在位时,举办即兴吟咏的歌会,题为《深山花》,当人们还在苦苦思索的时候,赖政卿即随口咏出一首有名的歌来: 深山藏树影,独见樱花俏。 很受人们赞赏,这样的风流武士,我们不能让他受辱,把神舆抬出这里吧。”他这样提议道,于是数千僧众,从阵前到阵后,都赞成道:“极是,应该这样。”于是便抬起神舆向东边的阵地走去。刚走到待贤门的时候,马上发生了冲突,武士们连连放箭,连十禅师的神舆也被射中了,有许多神官和杂役被射死,许多僧人也负了伤。喊叫的声音混成一片,连神佛也会震惊于这种惨景。僧众把神舆丢在宫门口,连哭带叫地祇回本山去了。 -------------------------- 【1】源赖政是源赖光的子孙,属多田源氏一族,长于弓矢与和歌。 【2】是嵯峨源氏融的后代,因住在摄津国渡边地方,故以渡边为姓。 【3】缝殿是大内(宫禁)最北边的朔平门,亦即这里所说的北边的门。 【4】医王即比睿山所崇祀的药师如来。山王是药师如来在日本垂迹的化身大物主神。 【5】竖者是通过一种所谓竖义的考试的人。在天台宗的论场上举行答辩,十问能答上五问即合格。 【6】即源经基,因是清和天皇第六皇子贞纯亲王的儿子,故称六孙王,赐姓源氏。 sixteen 大内被焚 朝廷命令藏人左少辨兼光立即在殿上召集公卿会议。保安四年(1123)七月神舆进京时,朝廷曾命延历寺座主将神舆送到赤山社安置。保延四年(1138)七月神舆进京时,则是命祇园别当【1】送至祇园社安置。现在就依保延之例,令祇园别当权大僧都澄宪在上灯时到祇园去。又叫神官们拔掉神舆上的箭。山门僧众抬了日吉神社的神舆到宫门口来的事情,从鸟羽天皇永久年间直到如今,共发生过六次。虽然每次都令武士拦阻,可是箭射神舆却是头一回。俗话说:“灵神发怒,灾祸满路。”人们都说这真是可怕的事。 四月十四日夜半时分,山门僧众又要大举进京。听到这个消息,天皇便坐了腰舆【2】临幸法皇的住所法住寺。中宫则坐着牛车去别的地方。小松公身穿便服背着弓矢进行侍卫,嫡子权亮【3】少将维盛身穿朝服背负箭筒随侍于侧。自关白公起,太政大臣以下的公卿和殿上人,全都争先恐后地追随。京中贵贱人等,宫中的上下众人,都骚动起来。山门一方,因为神舆被射,神官和神宫中的杂役被射死,僧徒也多有负伤,大家情绪激昂,说不如把大宫二宫以及讲堂中堂全都烧光,大家都到山野里隐居起来吧。三千僧众就这样决定了。山门的上级僧官,因为听说朝廷将接受僧众要求,便想将这情况告知众僧徒,让他们不要轻举妄动,但是众僧徒一气之下把他们从西坂本赶了回去。 平大纳言时忠卿那时任左卫门督【4】,被任为上卿【5】前去镇抚。在大讲堂的院子里,比睿山三塔【6】的僧众聚集在一起,想将上卿捉住,大家商议道:“把他的帽子打下来,捆起来扔进湖里去吧。”正要动手的时候,时忠卿说:“请大家安静,有件事要同诸位说一说。”于是从怀中取出小砚和叠着的纸,写了几行字交给众僧徒。僧众们打开来一看,上边写道:“僧众妄为乃魔障作祟,天皇制止是如来护佑。”僧众看了便不再想抓上卿,口里只说不错不错,便各自回到自己的寺院去了。仅以片纸只言便平息了山门三千僧众的愤怒,免去了公私耻辱,时忠卿真是不简单呀。而山门的僧众,人们一向认为他们只知道聚众闹事,现在才知道他们原来也是通情达理的,人们也都表示佩服。 同月二十日任命花山院权中纳言忠亲卿为上卿,作出裁决将国司加贺守师高革去官职,流放至尾张的井户田【7】,代理国司近藤判官师经下狱监禁。又于十三日裁定将箭射神舆的武士六人下狱,他们是左卫门尉藤原正纯、右卫门尉正季、左卫门尉大江家兼、右卫门尉大江家国、左兵卫尉清原康家、右兵卫尉清原康友,他们都是小松公手下的武士。 四月二十八日亥时,在樋口小路和富小路的交叉处发生了火灾,因为那时东南风很猛,火借风势烧了京城里许多地方。团团火球象车轮一样隔着三五条街斜飞过去,到处延烧,京城成了一片火海,非常可怕。具平亲王的千种殿,北野天神的红梅殿,桔逸势的蝇松殿、鬼殿、高松殿、鸭居殿,东三条冬嗣公的闲院殿,昭宣公的堀川殿,从这些地方开始,接连三十多处古今名胜,十六处公卿的住宅,都被烧掉了。另外还有殿上人、诸大夫府第等等不胜枚举。最后延至大内,从朱雀门开始,应天门、会昌门、太极殿、丰乐院、诸司八省【8】,朝所【9】等处,全都化为灰烬。各家的日常记录,历代的文书,各种各样的珍宝都毁于这场大火。总共损失多少财产无从计算。有几百人被烧死,各种牲畜更不知其数。发生了这件异常的事,人们都说是山王降罪,有人说曾梦见从比睿山上下来二三千只大猿猴,手里拿着火把,来到京城放火。 太极殿在清和天皇时代,即贞观十八(876)年第一次被焚,贞观十九年正月三日阳成天皇登基大典,便在丰乐院举行。元庆元年(877)四月九日开始重建,至元庆二年十月八日落成。后冷泉天皇时代,天喜五年(1057)二月二十六日又被焚,治历四年(1068)八月十四日动工重建,未及落成,后冷泉天皇就驾崩了。直到后三条天皇时代,延久四年(1072)四月十五日才完成,当时文人赋诗,乐人奏乐,举行了迁幸典礼。当今已是末世,国力衰竭,便不再重建了。 -------------------------- 【1】东大寺、兴福寺以及石清水、祇园等神佛合一的社寺均设别当,总管社寺事务。 【2】腰舆也叫手舆,是天皇在特殊情况下乘坐的便舆。 【3】权亮是员外次官。次官因官署不同,有副、辅、弼、亮、助、佐等种种名称。当时维盛是四位少将兼中宫权亮。 【4】左卫门督是左卫门府的长官。 【5】上卿是承办公务的首席长官。 【6】三塔是比睿山的东塔、西塔、横川三处。 【7】井户田在今名古屋瑞穗区内。 【8】泛指中央各机关。参见第一卷第一节注八。 【9】大臣们的食堂。
