Chapter 30 Chapter 8 1

--one-- The hot sun hangs high in the middle of the day, and the heat of July scorched the huge square bricks on the ground.Not a breath of wind.The value house next to the gate of Qianqing is backed by a high palace wall, and it is conceivable that it is stuffy. Last month, the newly completed Hanlin Duty House was on the left side of the Qianqing Gate. For more than a month, the Hanlin were divided into shifts to prepare for the emperor's advisors.What a great honor!General civil and military officials are limited to the front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and the residence of the princes and nobles is only on the other side of the Qianqing Gate. Hanlin officials can stand against the princes and nobles in the same court.

Of the three Hanlins on duty today, Xiong Cilu is on his first shift, while Xu Yuanwen and Ye Fangai have been on duty many times.Since falling into ambush, the emperor has called less, and they are more leisurely.Xu Yuanwen was painting at the table of the Eight Immortals, Ye Fangai watched with great interest, and Xiong Cilu sat on the kang while reading and drinking tea.After a while Xu Yuanwen straightened up and said with a smile: "It's really hot!" He took off the crown and put it on the table.Naturally, this move was not in keeping with court etiquette, but Ye Fangai just smiled, Xiong Cilu didn't notice it at all, and the room was peaceful and peaceful.

The door opened, and Prince An Yue Le, who was next court, stepped in.The Imperial Academy stood up to greet them, and Yue Le saw Xu Yuanwen holding a pen in his hand, and quickly said: "You are welcome, Mr. Zhuangyuan, sit down and draw, I am here to collect ink debts from you!" According to the etiquette of Yue Le, he sat down and painted again, and said with a smile: "Student, this painting is made for the prince." "Oh, what a coincidence. Just use the brush, I will leave after looking at it." Le smiled and approached the table, admiring Xu Yuanwen's swaying with his hands behind his back.

Ye Fangai was deeply afraid that Xu Yuanwen would be punished for his disrespect, so he deliberately said jokingly from the sidelines: "People in the mountains and fields, let it be natural, and Xu in front of you is really the so-called taking off his hat and showing his top before a prince!" Yue Le understood his intention immediately after hearing it. , Pointing to the screen and smiling: "Don't you see that the paper falls like a cloud of smoke?" After a question and an answer, the three looked at each other and laughed.Yue Le glanced at Xiong Cilu who was standing with his hands folded, as if seeing him for the first time, and said, "This is..." "The Imperial Academy is reviewing Xiong Cilu." Ye Fangai quickly introduced.

"It's a pleasure to meet you! Which subject is it from?" As soon as Yue Le entered the valued room, Xiong Cilu felt familiar. Now he is convinced that this is his boss, Luo Gong, a rich man in the capital.It turned out that he was the current prince!As a prince, why bother to ask yourself to set up a museum under a false name?Why not ask for a teacher in an open and honest manner? ... He was not sure how to express it, Yue Le decisively made a gesture of never knowing each other, while asking questions, while looking at him with burning eyes, half a smile, which had a deterrent meaning.So he understood that the history of building a museum for more than a year should be forgotten forever, and never mentioned a word.Before he could answer, Ye Fangai had already spoken: "My lord, the three of us are on the same list, and we are brothers of the same year. Brother Cilu is a well-known Taoist talent in Huguang." "Okay, okay!" If you are thirsty for talents, you have a bright future. Don’t let your majesty love talents!” “Yes!” The three answered with lowered hands respectfully, and Xu Yuanwen hastily put on the imperial crown.Yue Le glanced at him, and smiled: "Is this the meaning of seeing off guests? I'd better go, and the number one scholar can paint without hat, and make my study bright as soon as possible!" After Prince An left, Xu Yuanwen took off his hat again, While painting, he listened to Ye Fangai expressing emotion: "The emperor encourages learning and respects Confucianism, and he is always on the left and right when he teaches history and policy. He has the style of a scholar-bureaucrat. He is really worthy of a generation of virtuous kings!" Being virtuous, loving talents and using talents is the foundation of the community, but people privately ridicule that they specialize in recruiting Han scholars. It takes a lot of trouble to set up the Hanlin residence, let alone other things!" "Ah?" Ye Fangai said in surprise: " How could it be?" "The emperor had already issued an order to set up a Hanlin residence, but the meeting of kings and ministers repeatedly reviewed it, not to say that scholars of literature should not be over-respected, but to say that it is inconvenient for Zhilu to go deep into the forbidden area, so we refuse to do it. The emperor gave instructions three times and lost his temper, so he reluctantly discussed the affairs." Xu Yuanwen had the most opportunities to serve the emperor, and he knew the inside story well.

"The emperor made a decision, but it can't be done?" Ye Fangai asked suspiciously. "Well, the system of discussing government affairs was passed down by the ancestors of Liaodong, and no one dared to touch it. I heard that the emperor had the intention to stop discussing government affairs the year before last, but he finally gave up because of his relatives' disobedience." "What a strange thing!" Ye Fangai is also from Kunshan, Jiangsu. Xu Yuanwen's little fellow from the same township, the two were on the same list of Jinshi, one champion and the other third.But not long after he came to the north, he knew very little about the many "family laws and ancestral systems" in Manchuria, so it was unavoidable to see more strange things.

"It's more than that! Recently, the imperial court appointed Kong Sizhen, the daughter of King Kong, as King Dingnan to control Guangxi from afar, and married Princess Heshuo to Shang Zhilong, the son of King Pingnan. It has been delayed for a long time, and it was completed last month." Xu Yuanwen lowered his voice, but did not avoid Xiong Cilu. "Ministers discussing politics, are you so cautious and narrow-minded about politics?" Ye Fangai turned to Xiong Cilu, who had been studying hard, "Jingxiu, what do you think?" Xiong Cilu remained calm, put down his book, and said solemnly "Since my generation knows how to learn Taoism, there is nothing that violates the famous teaching. But if you don't see your own mistakes all day long, you will lose the way of sages; if you talk about others' mistakes all day long, you will hurt the harmony of heaven and earth." Ye Fangai looked at Xu Yuanwen dumbfounded, Xu Yuanwen smiled Said: "Tell you not to provoke him, let him study safely, don't you listen, it will be comfortable to be taught a lesson!" Ye Fangai also laughed, and muttered: "This little old master!" Lu reminded them of their intentions, and changed the subject.

"The emperor uploaded Xu Yuanwen, Ye Fangai, and Xiong Cilu!" The eunuch called out at the door, which surprised the three Hanlins, and hurriedly straightened their clothes.The court hat that Xu Yuanwen had just taken off was put on again.The three of them followed the summoned eunuch and filed out, walked up the white stone steps with carved railings, passed through the Qianqing Gate, and walked towards the Qianqing Palace.It was really hot outside, and I was sweating profusely after walking for a long time.But it wasn't just because of the heat, they were all nervous. Since offering sacrifices to Emperor Chongzhen last autumn, the emperor's temper has been very violent, and he had disagreements with the meeting of kings and ministers on almost every matter.The most recent one happened the day before yesterday.For some unknown reason, the emperor was furious, and issued a strict decree to remove Kerkun, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the two Ministers of the Han Dynasty together for investigation, leaving Han Shangshu Sun Tingquan and the two Ministers of the Han Dynasty alone in the ministry.It's worth it!The head of the six departments of the Ministry of Officials, in charge of the appointment and removal of civil servants across the country, is the most critical department. Doesn't this mean that the Ministry of Officials is given to Han officials?Not to mention how indignant the princes and nobles of the Manchu Dynasty and Manchurian officials were, even Sun Tingquan and the others were uneasy. They immediately expressed their thanks and asked the emperor to re-appoint Man Shangshu to preside over the department.

I don't want the emperor to approve Sun Tingquan's memorial yesterday: "No. Proceed as usual." The cabinet and the Hanlin Academy are the newly added departments that the emperor has worked hard to build, and they naturally face the emperor.But how can the ministers of state affairs and the Manchu officials who hold the power of the other five of the six ministries be willing to give up? Could it be because of this that the emperor called today?These newcomers to the imperial court are sandwiched between the emperor and the king's ministers, and it feels very uncomfortable.How to do it?They seem to have seen the emperor's sensitive face that was glowing unhealthy red due to too much anger... Approaching the lofty steps of the Qianqing Palace, the main hall with flying corners stands tall, covering half of the sky, and the belt in front of the palace The knife guards lined up to the Qianqing Gate, and there was only one standing in about twenty steps, which added to the majesty of the Qianqing Palace.The three Hanlins didn't often enter the Qianqing Palace, so they couldn't help but hold their breath, became more cautious and nervous.

After entering the palace gate, a golden throne was set in the middle of the main hall of Qianqing Palace. They dared not raise their heads, not knowing whether the emperor was present or not.As the eunuch turned west, they were taken to Xinuange.The eunuch lifted the curtain at the door, and they were surrounded by a refreshing fragrance of flowers. The three of them stepped into the threshold, and suddenly felt that the heat had disappeared, as if they were in a cool and fragrant fairyland.Slightly raised his head and looked up, ah, this scholar sitting on the kang, this handsome scribe, could it be the emperor?But this is clearly the emperor!The three Imperial Dukes hurriedly knelt down and said: "My ministers Xu Yuanwen, Ye Fangai, and Xiong Cilu respectfully invite Shengan." After speaking, they stood up, walked to the kang, knelt down on the thick red felt mat, and waited for the emperor's orders.

The emperor has become unrecognizable today: no hat on his head, no python on his body, no boots on his feet, a light blue single gauze summer shirt, a light-colored Zen skirt under the waist, and a pair of Wuzhong-style skirts on his bare feet. Straw sandals, black braided hair, black eyebrows, a pair of watery eyes on a pale face, a mountain and water folding fan in his hand, and tassels fluttering from the jade fan, isn't this a handsome young man from a Jiangnan family?Such an emperor, the learned and well-educated officials of Hanlin never dreamed of it.The literati emperor smiled and said: "Please, everyone. It's not a big deal, but I think that you are like me, love to roll in the sea of ​​books and poetry, and have nothing to do when you have nothing to do. Please take a look at my collection of books. Everyone A well-educated person, the so-called one who has read thousands of volumes, just picks up things for me." After Fulin finished speaking, he got off the kang and greeted the three of them, "Follow me." He led the way out of Xinuang Pavilion, entered the main hall of Qianqing Palace, and pointed out to the three of them. The three of them looked at the dozens of bookcases and bookcases along the left, middle, and right walls.The three of Xu Yuanwen and the others looked over along the road, only to feel that they had entered a mountain of books and a sea of ​​books, and they were overwhelmed. There are multi-treasure cabinets and hundreds of treasures, which are full of Shang Yi Zhou Ding, Ge Kiln Xuan Furnace, ancient inkstones, ancient inkstones, and jade bis. As for seals and scrolls, there are countless more. The engravings of gold and stone are rare in both color and carving, which is amazing.At the foot of the bookcase and treasure cabinet, there is a lush green area, dotted with white, light yellow, light red and light green flower strings in the dark green, which is made of hundreds of pots of jasmine, orchid and other flowers. The flower gallery is fragrant, bright and dazzling.The Hanlin people watched and sighed all the way, not only wanting to say good things to the emperor, but also really surprised. Seeing their astonishment and praise, Fulin was naturally very proud, couldn't help laughing, led them back to Xinuang Pavilion, and gave them a table and tea.At this time, Fulin said: "The world was in chaos at the end of the Ming Dynasty. I started the dynasty and used military force for many years. Many books were scattered among the people and easily disappeared. It is a pity. I'm afraid there are still many omissions. Why don't you write down the important posthumous notes that you remember? I also want someone to search for them." Xu Yuanwen and the others confessed their crimes, and each wrote dozens of them on the small table for drinking tea. The title of the book is submitted to the emperor.Fulin read it, nodded again and again, pointed to several books he had never seen before, and asked about the contents and authors.Even the emperor and his ministers, once there is a topic of common interest, the conversation will become more and more harmonious and speculative.Seeing that the emperor attached so much importance to books, that is to say, the rule of literature, the Hanlin were very encouraged.Later, they felt that the atmosphere of the conversation seemed to be coming to an end, and they didn't want the emperor to ask calmly: "As the saying goes: the bystanders are clear, and the authorities are confused. When you are new to the court, who do you think is the most virtuous among the officials and officials?" Who is the weakest? Are there any officials who are extremely incompetent? What are the current affairs of the court, what are the gains and losses?" The Hanlin were dumbfounded and dared not answer for a while.It's not that they don't have opinions, but that they are not sure and dare not speak nonsense in front of the emperor.If one is not careful, how many people's futures will be ruined and infinite resentment will be incurred.Ye Fangai came the fastest, bowed and replied: "Thank you for the emperor's kindness, I asked about the important affairs of the government, but I really can't know about the small ministers who are new." At least, maybe it means to make friends through literature?" Xu Yuanwen replied: "The association of scholars is a legacy of the Ming Dynasty, and it has been passed down to this day." Xiong Cilu said: "From the battle between the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party in the year of Tianqi, we can know how to form an association. The general idea of ​​the party." Fulin said: "Shenjiaoshe and Tongshengshe are at their peak. A few years ago, the Huqiu meeting of the two societies attracted hundreds of people, and they swore in front of Guan Zhuangmiao that they would never see each other again. Invasion, have you heard of it? It is said that Sun Cheng'en, the number one scholar in the criminal record, is also a member of the Shenjia society. Have Qing and others ever formed a society?" All three replied that they did not.Fulin stopped asking, and said with a smile: "Kneel down!" The Hanlins stood up, knelt down, and retreated to the door one by one. Ye Fangai accidentally stepped on Xiong Cilu's foot. .After retreating to the threshold of the Nuan Pavilion, the three turned around respectfully and left. According to court rituals, they walked southward from the east corridor with solemn expressions and steady steps.He had already reached the gate of Qianqing, and another eunuch came after him and said, "It's Xu Yuanwen." Xu Yuanwen looked at his two friends, then turned around and followed the eunuch back to Qianqing Palace.Xiong Cilu and Ye Fangai couldn't figure it out, and couldn't ask, so they had to go back to the value room. When Xu Yuanwen entered Qianqing Palace again, there was another official beside the emperor, that was Wang Xi, Minister of Rites and Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, who was Xu Yuanwen's immediate boss.Fulin said with a smile, "Today's talk is so sudden that I don't want to talk about it. I want to go to Wanshan Hall to talk about Zen with Yulin Guoshi, and I will call Erqing to go with me." So, the emperor rode on the shoulders, and the bachelor's entourage walked, and the eunuchs embraced him. A lot of calligraphy and painting, a group of people braved the scorching sun of July, went to Xiyuan.Yulin Tongxiu had already led his apprentice, Indexen, to greet him in front of the hall. After all the etiquette passed, Yulin and the emperor sat down as guests and hosts.Wang Xi and Xu Yuanwen stood on both sides of the emperor, and Ning Xisen stood behind Yulin.This is the meditation room in Yulin. The house is high, deep and cool, the tea is fragrant, the windows are bright and clean, and the pines and cypresses are dense, which makes people forget the world.The long table next to Yulin was filled with paintings and calligraphy carried by the eunuchs.Fulin smiled and said: "A while ago most of the books I sent were the books I read when I was young, and these are the ones I often read in recent years." Yulin flipped through it briefly, and took out a volume titled "Two Hundred Artifacts", which was the Cheng Wen of the provincial and general examinations since the imperial examination was held in Hongwu year of the Ming Dynasty.Yulin laughed and said, "What's the use of the emperor reading these stereotyped initials?" Fulin smiled: "The old monk doesn't know something. I want to preside over the general examination and palace examination, and select the articles of Jinshi. Shi Dacheng, Sun Chengen, Xu Yuanwen The champions of the three subjects were all selected by me personally, and they are indeed humble students! Please see, this is Xu Yuanwen, the champion of the new subject. "Xu Yuanwen stepped forward and bowed deeply to Yulin Tongxiu.Yulin hurriedly stood up to return the gift, took a good look at Xu Yuanwen, nodded in admiration, folded his hands together and said to Fulin: "The old monk celebrates the success of Long Live." Fulin was very happy: "He is a disciple of You Xitang, the so-called famous teacher and high disciple." Yulin Said: "The name of You Dong's talent is well known in the south of the Yangtze River." Fulin sighed: "Scholars in the field often become famous with few education, and their talents are buried. This is the case with You Tong. He is very kind. Composition, but officials are only selected based on the tribute of the township. When the Nine Kings were in charge, he was deposed by his ministers again. Isn't it a bad time!" Yulin said, "Xiu once heard that the king can make a life. A scholar is talented, but I'm afraid The emperor doesn't know what to hear. Since the emperor knows, why is it difficult to get a high position?" Fulin's expression was a little unnatural.Even if it took a lot of effort to build a Hanlin value house in Qianqingmen, if You Xitang, who is famous for his lyrics and music, is promoted to a high position, I don't know what kind of uproar will be caused!But he still said: "I also think so... Oh, there is You Xitang's anthology in the pile of books." Wang Xi said: "The last time the emperor came to the feast of the scriptures, he mentioned a public case about the enlightenment of Zen in the autumn wave. It seems to have been written in You Dong's essay. "Fulin said: "Oh, I only browsed, but never read it carefully. You can take it here for me to read." Pay the emperor. Fulin immediately looked down.With a smile on his face, he said without taking his eyes off the book: "Here comes the pen and inkstone!" The eunuch immediately held up the pen and inkstone, and he picked up the pen, criticizing the time points on the article, and praised incessantly, "You are a genius! You really are a genius." " Yulin Tongxiu couldn't help walking over, watching the emperor's hand carefully, and smiling admiringly. Wang Xi's "Enlightenment of Zen" mentioned by Wang Xi is an interesting incident of Zen Buddhism.According to legend, Qiu Qiongshan passed by a monastery and saw the paintings on the walls full of stories, so he asked: "How is the safety of Buddhism?" The abbot of the monastery replied: "This is how the old monk realized Zen." Where did you get enlightened?" The abbot said, "Why did he look at him before he left?" Qiu Qiongshan nodded repeatedly with a smile. "How can he turn around when he is about to look at the autumn waves?" is the lyrics of Zhang Sheng's first meeting with Yingying in the episode "Stunning".You Tong took it as the title of stereotyped essays, imitating the style of the time, and wrote an article, which was engraved in the collection "Xitang Zazu".Presumably Shunzhi loves to read "The West Chamber" and knows stereotyped essays, so he admires it so much.At the end of the article, when he saw Yulin watching from the side, he pointed to the last sentence of the article, "Please read it next time", and said with a smile: "Although it is a game text, it is very talented. , It is admirable. It is easy to deal with stereotyped writing." Yulin, Wang Xi and others all laughed. Fulin suddenly closed the scroll and said, "Old monk, please pass on your words here." Yulin shook his head and said, "It's not in the realm of mountain monks." Fulin looked back at the smiling Inden River, and said, "How about Inden River?" Xisen replied: "Where there is no romance, there is romance." Fulin laughed heartily, and everyone also applauded Inn Xisen's ingenious turn of phrase.It means puns, implying circles, and coming from the mouth of a monk, it is not a mood.It is amazing to understand Zen from the "West Chamber", but it is even more amazing to talk about "The West Chamber" at the sutra banquet.Xu Yuanwen was only dizzy and surprised when he heard it. Fulin took out the "Rhyme Version of the West Chamber" from the pile of books and showed it to Yulin, saying: "This is the Yuan rhyme used by songwriters, which is quite different from the rhyme of Shen Yue's poems. Even "The West Chamber" also has the difference between the southern tune and the northern tune. Have the old monk read it?" "The old monk read it when he was young. As for the north, south and west chambers, Xiu has never identified it." "Then, what does the old monk think of this word?" It's really naughty to ask the eminent monk. Yulin Tongxiu remained calm, and replied honestly: "The style and charm of this word come from the thoughtfulness of the men's and women's rooms, which is far beyond the reach of other songs... There is a "Red Fu Ji", I don't know if I have read it before." Is it?" Fu Linyue: "The words in "Hong Fu" are wonderful, but the narration is not good." "Why?" "It shouldn't be four or six sentences, which makes people feel that the turban is full of energy and lack of interest." "Correct Yes. I respect the holy theory." "There is a Jin Ruocai in Suzhou. Does the old monk know the banner man?" "I heard that there is a Jin Shengtan. I wonder if it is him?" "It is the banner man. He once commented on "The West Chamber" and "Water Margin" , Although the discussion has infinite reverie, but it is too persuasive, I think it is because of high talent but out-of-the-ordinary." "In this way, he is as stylish as Li Zhi of the Ming Dynasty." Listening to their questions and answers, Xu Yuanwen was simply overwhelmed.The emperor used "The Western Chamber" to test the monk, and he didn't fail the test, which shows that the monk has a wide range of foreign studies;As for Jin Shengtan's critique of "The West Chamber", Xu Yuanwen's family lives in Kunshan, only a hundred miles away from Suzhou. I only heard that it was just published in recent years, but I haven't read it yet. However, the emperor lives in Jiuchong, so he was able to see it first. His diligence in seeking knowledge is really amazing. Pei! ... When Xu Yuanwen brought his thoughts back to pay attention to the lecture, they had already talked about the fact that Yulin did not leave Beijing at sunrise and return to the mountains.The emperor's free and easy manner of talking and laughing suddenly disappeared without a trace, his eyes were full of depression, and he forced a smile and said: "The old monk promised me to come to celebrate my birthday when I was thirty, and I will wait for it; Monk Baoen said that he came to celebrate forty, and I'm afraid I'll have to wait for him." Yulin comforted: "The emperor will be a thousand years old, why do you say that?" Fulin flicked his cheek with his thumb and index finger, and said: "Old man Monk Xiangzhen seems to have a pretty face," and said with his chest in his chest, "but this bone is as thin as a stick. How can you last for a long time like this sick body?" "The emperor is too busy. Fortunately, the emperor spared no time to think about it, so he can go to bed early. It is good to soothe the nerves." "Oh, if I go to bed early, I will turn my back all night and feel more uneasy; I always feel tired when I lie down with four drums in the Qiaolou tower." Fortunately." Yulin said very sincerely, but he didn't want to, but it aroused Fulin's deeper sorrow.He paused for a moment, and finally said quietly: "Treasures, wives and concubines, are the most coveted and inseparable in life. Of course I don't care about wealth, even wives and concubines feel that the wind and clouds are coming and going, so I don't care much." He bit his lip , paused, and then said: "If the empress dowager is not alone, you can go to the monkhood with the old monk!" Everyone present was astonished, and Wang Xi and Xu Yuanwen were even stunned. They didn't know what to say, but Yulin Tongxiu took up the conversation: "Your Majesty, ordinary people shave their hair and dye their clothes, it's just a chance; Mahayana Bodhisattva Otherwise, they often turn into heavenly kings, human kings, god kings, and ministers to maintain the country and protect the people. Tens of thousands of kalpas of practice will not reach the land of the Buddhas. As far as today is concerned, if the emperor does not appear as an emperor, who will do this grand event of inviting seniors and promoting the legalization? Therefore, to become a monk to practice, I hope my emperor will never have this idea. "What he said is the truth. Since Shunzhi worshiped Buddha, the reconstruction of temples and various temples in various places have become very complicated and grand in the capital. A lot of money from the royal family has been invested in the affairs of worshiping and worshiping Buddha. The influence is expanding day by day. Isn’t this what eminent monks like Yulin Tongxiu expect? Many southern eminent monks, such as Han Pucong, Xuanshuigao, Yulin Tongxiu, Ningxisen, Mu Chenxiu, etc., have come to Beijing one after another , and continued to surround Fulin. These eminent monks are very knowledgeable, have profound poetic accomplishments, and are good at following Shunzhi's favor. Their words are speculative and like-minded. Shunzhi also fell into the trap of Buddhism because of his obsession with Han literature. In the early years, influenced by Tang Ruowang, he completely abandoned the belief of not believing in monkhood. Another important reason lies in Fulin's own depression.If he wants to have fun all his life, and be a king of extravagance, corruption and stupidity, then he will never have any troubles.But he wanted to make a difference, he was very wise, and he was in the special historical conditions of the Manchus who first ruled the Central Plains, so he had to endure countless pains.It was these pains that forced him to seek relief from Buddhism. As a well-known eminent monk, Yulin Tongxiu dared to accept the emperor's monasticism in spite of the world's dissatisfaction?So he said such words in a straightforward manner, and he really deserves the title of national teacher.Shunzhi had to nod frequently after hearing this.However, Shunzhi didn't stop there, took a step back, and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't leave home, the old monk accepts me as a disciple!" "Ah, how can this be done?" Yulin didn't expect this move. "May the old monk not regard me as the Son of Heaven, but treat me like a disciple of Inenxi." "This...well, the old monk is just like the emperor." Yulin was afraid that the young emperor would make other calls. His embarrassing tricks, besides accepting an emperor as a disciple, is always a grand event in Buddhism. "Then, please ask Master to name me!" Yulin refused for a long time, but Fulingu refused to let him go.When Yulin finally picked up the pen to choose the dharma name, Fulin sighed deeply from the bottom of his heart, and said sadly: "Master gave me the dharma name, I must choose the ugliest word..." Wang Xi and Xu Yuanwen read Seeing the flickering light in the emperor's eyes, he was even more at a loss for a moment. As a literary servant, how could he dare to take care of the emperor's affairs? Yulin wrote more than ten characters and presented them to the emperor.Fulin chose "Chi" himself, and the previous character was "Xing" of the fifth generation of the Longchi School of Zen Buddhism. Therefore, Emperor Shunzhi's dharma name was "Xing Chi". Fulin still has to meet the teacher, how can Yulin dare to accept it.At this moment, Wang Xi and Xu Yuanwen dared to speak to stop it, because it was obviously inconsistent with the court's grand ceremony.Fulin had no choice but to give up.He glanced at Inenxi—full name is Indenxi Xingsen—and said with a smile, "Indenxi, from now on, I will call you Senior Brother and Brother Fa!" Scattered, it doesn't really matter." Could it be that Concubine Dong E is not on his mind?no.Since this spring, she has fallen ill, and she has been bedridden until now, and every day seems to be getting worse.How many imperial physicians and how many prescriptions were prescribed, but there was no improvement.Fulin goes to Chengqian Palace every day, and every time he sees Wu Yunzhu, who is so thin that he will collapse in the wind, he is so energetic and happy to face each other, he feels sad and unbearable.The imperial physician had already hinted at it, but Fulin refused to believe that she would really leave him.Although reason told him that it was only a matter of time.Therefore, his so-called "wives and concubines" did not include Concubine Dong E.Perhaps this was also the reason why he wanted to become a monk? Fulin didn't go back to Yangxin Palace, but went straight to Chengqian Palace to see Wuyunzhu.Today he had a chat with scribes and monks. Although it was very happy, it also aroused deep melancholy in his heart.If Wu Yunzhu is not sick, he will comfort him in the most appropriate way, making him feel comfortable and full of energy like taking a warm bath. At dusk, the setting sun is like blood, coating the entire palace with a dark red that is both intoxicating and heavy.Fulin stopped the servants to announce, and stepped into the Chengqian Gate, turned around the stone screen wall, walked on the platform, and passed the front hall, the sound of jingling zither accompanied by the sweet fragrance of tuberose wafted in the wind.Fulin was so surprised that she almost jumped up: no one in the palace could play the piano except Wu Yunzhu.So, her health has improved? Fulin quickened his pace excitedly.The sound of the piano is melodious and clearer.so beautiful! The sound of the piano contains ethereal beauty, which makes him have a wonderful imagination of flying above the wind and clouds, and at the same time, it reminds him of the famous sentence "the heights are too cold". When Fulin approached the bedroom, the bright, erratic, and continuous ending led him to feel the bright moon, shooting stars, summer dew, and autumn frost... He stopped unknowingly, closed his eyes slightly, and immersed himself in the In the lingering sound and the long and profound artistic conception. Suddenly, clang and clang, the sound of the piano vibrated, Qingyue was vigorous and impassioned, like a thunderstorm in the sky, lightning flashed above his head, and the storm was coming, which made Fulin extremely shocked.He couldn't imagine that the silk-stringed guqin could play such high-spirited emotions.He also couldn't believe that this kind of melody, which seemed to be going from east to west, could burst out from under the weak fingers of his dark cloud bead.He hurried forward a few steps, but before reaching the door, there was a "bang" in the room, as if something heavy had hit the piano.The sound of the piano was cut off, and what was replaced was a mournful cry of grief: sobbing and sobbing, intermittent and continuous, it was more sad than wailing.Fulin was very nervous, and strode into the bedroom. He was stunned by the scene in front of him: on the north wall, a horizontal scroll of ancient paintings was stretched upright, and an altar was drawn, offering some summer melons and fruits and a furnace. fragrant.In front of the altar is a short and long dark piano table, on which is Wu Yunzhu's beloved guqin -- [Spring Breeze]. Sitting on the thin mat cushion, Wu Yunzhu is lying on her "Spring Breeze" and weeping sadly, tears Like a pearl with a broken thread, it "thumps, flaps" and falls straight down.But it was not Wu Yunzhu who cried, but Rong Niuer who was kneeling next to her, holding a silver tray to deliver the medicine cup.The medicine cup was smashed to the ground, and Rong Niuer was crying like a tearful person. Fulin was flustered, and rushed to Wu Yunzhu's side, helping her up.Unexpectedly, the tearful Wu Yunzhu looked back and saw that it was the emperor. She neither kowtowed in a sickly body -- she has always been like this, although Fulin has spared her from kneeling -- nor did she show a trace of affection on her pitifully thin face. Smiling -- she has always been like this, although everyone who sees that smile wants to cry -- she throws herself into Fulin's arms recklessly, hugs him and weeps.Fulin had never seen her lose her composure like this before, her heart was beating wildly in panic, and her fingers were trembling.He hugged her tightly, gently stroked her silky black hair with trembling hands, tried to swallow his saliva, and comforted her with a dry voice: "Don't cry, don't cry... What's wrong with you? Is that so..." Whispering and comforting, what touched was a thin, weak and helpless skeleton.Fulin felt that a corner of his heart was slowly being torn apart, and it was very painful. When he lowered his head, two big and heavy hot tears fell on Wu Yunzhu's ears and cheeks with a "beep".Wu Yunzhu shivered sensitively, raised her wet face, and looked at Fulin: "You, what's the matter with you?" Fulin forced a smile: "Why do you still ask me? What's the matter with you..."" I..." Wu Yunzhu bit her lips, a pitiful dimple flashed on her skinny cheeks: "I'm sad... I can't bear you..." Fulin rarely heard such straightforward love words from Wu Yunzhu's mouth, My heart became hot, and my eyes were red again, and I said, "Did you feel sad when you heard that I was going to become a monk? Who told you that? " "Monk?" Wu Yunzhu turned pale with shock, tears dried up in an instant.She wiped away the tears from her cheeks with one hand, and tightly held Fulin's arm with the other, her lips trembling violently: "You...why are you..." "Don't worry," Fulin said quickly, "I didn't become a monk , I just worshiped the master and gave me the Dharma name." "You... despise us." Wu Yunzhu's tears fell down again. "Hey, don't you know me yet?... It's too bitter, too bitter... Maybe only Buddhism can give me a moment of peace." Fulin whispered with a gloomy expression. Wu Yunzhu looked at Fulin bewilderedly, but didn't speak.Rong Niu'er picked up the broken medicine jar and cup, and quietly retreated. Fulin stood up straight, let out a long sigh, and slowly raised his face, not knowing whether he was swallowing tears, or looking at the boundless sky through the gorgeous roof.His voice was filled with a kind of uncommon grief and indignation, so that it was hard to tell whether he was reciting poems or expressing his heart directly: "The sky overwhelms me, the earth carries me, and the sky and the earth give birth to me. Do you have any intentions? Otherwise, the grain will go to the sky, or else Fushi Anmin occupies the imperial capital! I am ambitious all my life and always want to be wise and promising. I dare not say that I am comparable to Taizong Taizong. I beg to follow Tang Zong and Ming Zu. However, I am unable to do what I want, and I am struggling every step of the way!... I am still pushing the big stone, But the hillside is getting higher and steeper... I'm exhausted, I can't push it anymore! Why is it so heavy, so heavy!..." Wu Yunzhu has stopped crying, she is like Qiu Yang standing in the cold wind, trembling all over. Fulin glanced at her, hugged her tightly suddenly, and shouted: "Why are you sick? You don't leave me!Only you are supporting me, helping me push that big rock up the hill.If I lose you, I'm all broken! ...Ah, Wu Yunzhu! ..." Wu Yunzhu stretched out her cold little hand, touched Fulin's trembling lips and burning eyes, and said in a low voice: "Don't do this, Your Majesty.Just without me, and the queen dowager.In her heart, she always supports you. ""But..." Fulin let go of Wu Yunzhu all of a sudden, as suddenly as he was hugging her just now, and almost cried out: "Oh my God, her heart!In her heart, she will always look down on me and despise me forever! ...Think of her words, her voice, her eyes last July! ... Ah, how cowardly, how cowardly, I could be!How ugly!How ugly! ... This is a shame that I will never wash away in my life!What face do I have to talk to Er Niang about governing the country and the world! ..." He opened his two big hands, hugged his head tightly, and sat down on the short couch. The whole posture showed the extreme pain in his heart, which made people feel very uncomfortable. In an instant, Wu Yunzhu forgot her own pain, walked forward, gently leaned on the armrest of the short couch, and gently pulled Fulin to lean in her arms, stroking his head, his hands, his shoulders back.There was so much tender love infused into her movements that she was more like a mother than a lover.She spoke softly and slowly like a whisper, as if a mother was telling a story to a sick child: "I have been ill recently, and for some reason, I often recall my childhood. When I was six years old, I went to the south of the Yangtze River with Ama, and my mother led me. Going back to Suzhou to meet relatives. I happily went to meet my cousins ​​and cousins, but they all scolded me 'bastard, little Hu demon! They even partnered up and beat me secretly. I cried to my mother, and my mother cried She was worse than me. It turned out that my grandfather and uncles and aunts didn’t recognize her, saying that she was out of integrity and ruined the family style, and asked her why she didn’t die!... Later, when I returned to the capital, Ama took me to recognize my relatives, but the uncles and uncles were in front of me. They laughed at me, Amma, and all my cousins ​​called me a slut and a savage! I was beaten again and bloody..." At this point, her voice was out of tune, and her eye circles were red again.The humiliation of this childhood was deeply rooted in her heart, even though it happened many years later, the pain still lingers to this day.After a pause, she calmed down and continued: "...I was really angry at that time! I thought, my Ama, who can shoot a strong bow and ride a strong horse, is Baturu who was killed on the battlefield; my forehead My mother can write poems, paint pictures, and play the piano. She is a talented woman who knows how to read and perform. , Erniang loves me like a jewel in the palm of my hand, and I must fight for them! At that time, I swore: First, to stand out and stand out, I must surpass all Manchu women, so that the full relatives on Ama's side and Erniang's side All the Han relatives admired him!... "Growing up, I read a lot of books and understood the principle of combining civil and military skills with leniency and fierceness. , broad and profound, has a long history.Martial arts, culture and governance are fused in one furnace, and it is bound to forge a sword that has never been obtained in ancient and modern China and foreign countries; if the Manchu and Han are integrated, the Qing Dynasty will be able to prosper and prosper, and the country will be prosperous and the people strong, isn't it just around the corner? ..." Fulin has been obsessed with hearing this for a long time. Wu Yunzhu has never talked about her childhood grievances, why did she suddenly bring it up today?... How strange her idea is, but how much it fits Fulin's heart! 乌云珠仿佛看透他的心思，瘦弱的手温柔地抚摸着他的面颊，声音更低，说得更慢：“妾妃不敢说与陛下志同道合，但自认是陛下的知音。皇上所作所为，皇上所想所念，妾妃以为都是识大局知大势，合乎天地正道。妾妃愿为此百年大业略尽绵薄之忱，便是死了也心甘情愿啊！……”福临看着她，沮丧和痛苦渐渐淡了，心里十分感动。 “妾妃常想，谋事在人，成事在天。如今磨难重重，安知不是天降大任于斯人，必先苦其心志而后成呢？"福临浓黑的眸子里闪出两点光亮，微微点头道：“好，贤妃说得好！……朕越发不能让你离开了。”“百年离别在高楼，一代红颜为君荆"乌云珠心里一痛，冒出这么一句古诗。她眼见福临神色又变，赶忙笑着解释说：“百年聚合，终有一别。皇上一向旷达，难道还看不透？如果这样，又怎能参禅？"福临愣了一愣，强笑说：“你我相约生生世世永为夫妻，岂是百年二字可以了的？"乌云珠略带凄婉地笑了。 “这不是张灵的《招仙图》吗？"福临看着墙上那幅横卷，"是鉴赏，还是祭奠？“《招仙图》，构思非常巧妙，笔法简洁潇洒。图的右下方，雕栏玉砌的石桥边，一位宫妆美女静静立着，仰望高天，满腔倾慕、期望之情。中间隔了很长很长的一片空白，一笔不画，一色不染，那是无限苍茫、寥廓、幽远的大地和天空。最后，在长卷的左上角，现出了浮云中的一轮明月。整个画面给人凄清欲绝、无限空阔的特殊感觉，既使人想到"高处不胜寒"，又使人想到"空照秦淮"的种种意境。 乌云珠答道：“二者兼而有之。” “那么，这是宫妃在招广寒宫里的嫦娥呢，还是广寒宫的嫦娥在招宫妃呢？“福临在尽力缓和气氛。 “我想，也是二者兼而有之。"乌云珠的声音打了个磕绊。 福临却没有听到，仍然注视着《招仙图》，说：“这位桥畔美人儿，倒真与贤妃有几分相似哩！”“是吗？"乌云珠几乎问不下去，把头扭开了。 “你今天是不是好些了？刚才进来听见你在弹琴。”“是。午间起来觉得很清爽，就试了试手指，叫她们挂出这卷图，弹了一曲《广寒怨》。”“不，不对。起初弹的是《广寒怨》，后来呢？那曲激扬壮烈的琴声呢？那声韵同风雨江涛相仿佛，绝不是《广寒怨》，你只弹了一小会儿……”“那，那叫《烈风雷雨颂》，“乌云珠忍泪回答说：“是我幼年从师时，师父教给的。”“你为什么不弹完，就倒在琴上哭呢？"福临关切地问。 乌云珠怎么能告诉他呢？午后她略感轻松，起身弹琴，是想试试自己的体力，也想借以抒发情怀，于是弹起了《烈风雷雨颂》。谁知弹了不几句，便觉体力不支，一时头昏目眩，冷汗淋漓，眼前一片昏黑，差点儿晕过去。她明白了，自己没有什么希望了，顿时万念俱灰，推开容妞儿送来的药，伏在琴上便哭了。 不，她什么也不肯告诉福临。今天她看到福临伤痕累累的心，他的沉重的精神负担，她决不肯使他增加新的痛苦。但是，她心里又有许多许多话要说，想要留给福临，这是她一生挚爱的人，他们一同经历了多少风浪，一同尝过多少甘苦啊！想当初青春年少，他们象一对年轻美丽的凤凰，雄心勃勃，向着朝阳，比翼奋飞。但是，狂风暴雨，明枪暗箭，给他们留下了无穷无尽的创伤！凰已奄奄一息，凤还能振翅翱翔吗？……乌云珠用双手轻轻地、无限爱怜地托住福临的面颊，泪光闪闪的黑眼睛无限留恋地扫视着亲爱的面容，最后，她努力绽出一丝微笑，小声地回答福临：“出师未捷身先死，常使英雄泪满襟。"福临心头掀起一重热浪，喉头哽住了，目不转睛地盯住了他的这位贴心的情侣、志同道合的知己、他心目中唯一的妻子，嘴唇颤抖得说不出话来。 乌云珠又用冰凉的手捏住福临的手指，用更微弱的声音问道：“一口气不来，向何处安身立命？"福临象搂抱孩子似的，把乌云珠紧紧搂在怀中，低头把脸贴在她身上，阵阵呜咽眼看就要从胸中涌起，他都勉力抑制住了。他要乌云珠学佛参禅后不久，乌云珠每见到他，常常以这句参禅语相问。最初他笑而不答；乌云珠病后，他避而不答；今天呢？他满心苦楚、辛酸，连出声都不易了，怎能回答？
