Yu Shimingyan

Chapter 73
Advise people to stop reciting scriptures and chant the mantra for eliminating disasters!The mantras are always merciful, how to save wrong karma?If you plant hemp, you will get hemp; if you plant beans, you will get beans;These eight sentences were written by Xu Shenweng, saying that in the world, when people are alive, they will accumulate good to be good, and accumulate evil to be evil.There is a saying in the ancients: accumulating money to bequeath to descendants may not be able to keep them; accumulating books to bequeath to descendants may not be able to read; it is better to accumulate yin and virtue in the dark, thinking that descendants will have a long-term plan.In the old days when Sun Shuao came out at dawn, he saw two snakes with one head crossing his path.Sun Shuao beat him to death with bricks and buried him.When he returned home, he told his mother, "My son is bound to die!" The mother said, "How do you know it?" Ao said, "I've heard that people who see two-headed snakes are bound to die. My son sees them today." The mother said, "Why don't you kill them?" Shu Ao said: "My son has been killed and buried, so that future generations will not see him again and hurt his life. My son would rather die." The mother said: "My son has the heart to save others. This is a yin stallion. He must not die." Later, uncle Ao Guan worshiped the Prime Minister of Chu.Today, if a scholar is said to save a snake, he will be rewarded later.

During the Xining period of the Shenzong Dynasty in the Southern Song Dynasty, there was an official in Bianliang, surnamed Li and named Yi, who was the magistrate of Qi County, except for the magistrate of Hangzhou.This official is originally from the Chenzhou family, and has a wife, the Han family; his son Li Yuan, styled Boyuan, studied Confucianism.When Li Yi went home to pack his luggage, he took his two servants instead of his wife to Hangzhou to take up his post.After one year in office, he suddenly thought: "My son Li Yuan is studying books at home. I don't know how his studies are doing recently?" He wrote a letter to his family and asked Wang An to go to Chenzhou to pick up his baby Li Yuan and come to Hangzhou.Wang An resigned from his post, and within a day, he went to Chenzhou to see Gongren and present a letter from his family.Li Yuan was summoned from the academy to read his father's letter and pack his luggage.Li Yuan had failed in the exams before, but recently he has been lazy with Qin and calligraphy, and stopped traveling to the mountains and rivers for self-entertainment.Hearing his father's order, he packed up his qin, sword, and bookcase, paid his respects to his mother, and set off with Wang An.Looking for a boat along the road, within a day, I arrived at the Yangtze River.Li Yuan looked at the scenery of the mountains and rivers, but he didn't see enough, so he wrote a poem saying: "From Kunlun in the west to the sea in the east, the turbulent waves beat the shore and the waves lifted the sky."Yueming's ears are filled with the roar of wind and thunder, and the sound of the river sends the passenger ship off.Crossing the river to Runzhou, meandering to Changzhou, passing Suzhou, to Wujiang.When it was time to apply for the license plate, Li Yuanzhou saw the scenery of Wujiang in the middle of the day, and the picture of Xiaoxiang was undiminished, and he was overjoyed!Order Shao Gong to park the boat near the side of the long bridge.Yuan boarded the bridge, came to the Chuihong Pavilion, sat on the railing, and watched the evening view of Taihu Lake.Li Yuan's insufficiency, he suddenly saw a palace in the white wall in the east of the bridge, and he didn't know where it was.But when the fisherman rolled his net, he bowed and asked, "Which family is the powder wall on the east side of the bridge?" The fisherman said, "This is the San Gaoshi temple." Li Yuan asked, "Who are the San Gao?" They are three great scholars, Fan Li, Zhang Han, and Lu Guimeng." Yuanxi found a way to cross a bridge to the temple of the three great scholars.Enter the side door and watch the stele.When I went to the hall, I saw three people sitting in a row, Fan Li in the middle, Zhang Han in the left, and Lu Guimeng in the right.While Li Yuan was thinking, an old man came with a stick.The question is the person who looks at the ancestral hall.Li Yuan said: "How long has this ancestral hall been?" The old man said: "It has been more than a thousand years!" Yuan said: "I heard that Zhang Han was a prominent official in the dynasty. Because he thought of the beauty of perch and water shield, he abandoned his official and returned to his hometown. They are the ones who retired bravely in the torrent, and they are also the best scholars in the world. Lu Guimeng, a peerless poet who lives in seclusion on the Wusong River, only enjoys raising ducks, is also the best scholar in the world. It is justified for these two people to set up a shrine. Fan Li He was the high minister of the Yue Kingdom, who took things out of the way and broke the Wu Kingdom because he offered gifts to Fuchai, the king of Wu. Later, he saw Yibo, the king of Yue, sailing around the five lakes in a flat boat. , How can people enjoy sacrifices here?" The old man said: "The predecessors built it, but I don't know what it means." Li Yuan borrowed a pen and inkstone from the old man, and wrote a poem on the wall, so that he could not accept it here. Enjoy.The poem said: exaggerated, land spirits, outstanding people, and Lu, it is advisable to pre-clear the Qing Temple.It is difficult to eliminate national hatred in a thousand years, so it should not be here.After the question, I returned the old man's pen and inkstone, and resigned to go out.

I saw several children playing and beating little snakes in the tall grass with bamboo sticks.Li Yuan looked at it closely, and saw that the little snake was born strangely: golden eyes and yellow mouth, ocher body with brocade scales, body like coral, with green hair under the cheeks, which can be more than an inch long.The snake is more than a chi long and shaped like a thin bamboo.Seeing that he was still alive, Yuan Yuan hurriedly stopped the little boy: "Shut up, I will give you a hundred coppers, but you can release the little snake and sell it to me." The little boy asked for money.Li Yuan wrapped the red snake in the sleeve of his shirt, led the boy to the side of the boat, and took the copper coins to go.Call Wang An to open the bookcase, take the decoction of mugwort leaves, keep it warm for a while, store it in a plate, and wash off the blood from the snake.He ordered the boat to be released a little bit, and looked at the lush vegetation on the shore, but no one came, so he released the red snake there.She turned her head several times and looked at Li Yuan.Yuan said: "Li Yuan let you go today. You can hide in a secluded place, and don't teach others to see you again." The red snake swam into the water and went through the bottom of the wave.Li Yuanling moved the boat to look at Hangzhou.Three days have come.Visit my father and talk about the family affairs.When his father asked him about his studies, Li Yuan answered them one by one, and his father was very happy.After living in the Yamen for several days, Li Yuan told his father: "Mother is at home, and there will be no one to serve her sooner or later; if the son wants to go home, he will go to the spring election." He also ordered Wang An to send him back.The luggage has been unloaded, and he bid farewell to his father, and left Hangzhou with Wang An.Go out from Dongxinqiao Guantang Road, pass Chang'an Dam, to Jiahe, near Wujiang.Looking at the mountains and lakes from the old years, I am reluctant to give up.By the time we reached Changqiao, the sun was already flat.Li Yuanjiao stayed temporarily on the boat: "Let's watch the scenery, stay overnight, come early and leave early." He lived on the boat under the bridge, went ashore, walked up the bridge alone, climbed the Chuihong Pavilion, and stood by the back, looking at the shimmering lake, The mountains are empty and foggy; the wind sets the fishermen's songs together, and the waves shake the shadows of the geese.When I was watching and playing, I suddenly saw a boy in Tsing Yi, who came forward and bowed, holding a list of names in his hand, and said: "People from the East have a list of names here. If they want to see Yuan, they dare not do it." Li Yuan said: "People from Rudong Where is it?" Tsing Yi said: "On the left side of this bridge, arch and listen to the call." Li Yuan looked at a line of writing on the list of names and said: "Student Zhu Wei respectfully." Yuan said: "Could it be that the Rudong people mistook me?" Tsing Yi Said: "If you want to see Yuan, you can't be mistaken!" Li Yuan said: "I come from Jiangzuo. I don't know each other, and I don't have friends with the surname Zhu. How dare you have the same surname?" Qingyi said: "Zheng If you want to see Li Boyuan in Li Yamen, the judge of the judge, there is no mistake!" Li Yuan said, "In this case, he must be gentle, so please come and meet me." Not long after Tsing Yi left, he attracted a talented person, with beautiful features and white teeth. Red, fluttering with the air of Lingyun.When the scholar saw Li Yuan, he bowed first, and Yuan hurriedly replied.Zhu Xiucai said: "Jiazun and Lingzu have known each other very well. Mr. Wen has returned from Hangzhou, and special students have been serving him for a long time. If you don't give up, you can go to the house and talk about the old friendship with Jiazun. Is it okay?" Li Yuan Said: "Yuan was young, and I didn't know the old relationship between my ancestors and Jun's family. I lost my visit. I beg for forgiveness." , is to follow the scholar out of the Chuihong Pavilion.At the end of the long bridge, in the shade of willows, a boat is moored. There are several people on it, with big faces and bright clothes.Invite Yuan to disembark, and see the colorful decorations and paintings in the boat, and the carpets are very rich.Yuan Zao was amazed!Zhu Xiucai taught to sail the boat, and the followers rowed the oars. The boat went like flying, and the waves stirred up on both sides, like snow flying.

In a short time, the boat had arrived, and Zhu Xiucai invited Li Yuan to go ashore.In Yuanjian, there are pines and cypresses in the area, the pavilions are like covers, the beach is sandy and grassy, ​​and purple shirts and silver belts are lined up. There are about twenty people, two wisteria sedan chairs.Li Yuan asked: "Who is the envoy of this public official?" Zhu Xiucai said: "The envoy of this family's honor. Please get on the sedan chair, it is right next door." Li Yuan was so surprised that he had to get on the sedan chair and drank from left to right. pine forest.Walking for a distance, I saw a palace, backed by green hills, facing green water in the south, and a bridge over the water, with flower and stone railings on the bridge.The palace is covered with glazed tiles, and the two corridors are covered with red mud walls.There are three Zhumen, with a gold plaque on it, inscribed "The Palace of Yuhua".The sedan chair reaches the gate of the palace, please get off the sedan chair.Li Yuan didn't dare to take that step, trembling.There were two people coming out of the palace gate to greet them. They both wore mink cicada crowns on their heads, wore purple scorpions on their bodies, and a gold belt around their waists. They held patterned slips in their hands. Yuan Banshang couldn't answer.Zhu Xiucai said from the side: "My father has an invitation, so be careful not to be suspicious." Li Yuan said, "Where is this?" Going up the corridor through the steps, when you go up to the platform, you can see dozens of people in brocade clothes, and an old man is escorted out of the hall by the clan.He has a cicada crown with big sleeves, Zhu shoes with long trains, and a jade gui in his hand. He goes forward to welcome him.Li Yuan hurriedly bowed down, and the king ordered his left and right to help him up.Wang said: "It's not appropriate to sit down and invite Wen Yu. Fortunately, Mu is here, and I beg for forgiveness." Li Yuan only agreed.The left and right are introduced into the hall, Wang Sheng is on the throne, and there is an embroidered pier under the left hand, please Xie Yuan to take the seat.Yuan bowed to the ground again and said: "The commoner is cold. The king is in front of the emperor. How dare you sit?" The prime minister said: "Your Majesty salutes, sir, don't say goodbye." Li Yuan repeatedly declined, but as a last resort, he bowed his head and sat on the embroidered pier.Wang Naihuan: "Son, come to pay homage to your benefactor."

In a short while, there were several palace ladies behind the screen, and Mr. Ichiro arrived.Wearing a small crown, wearing crimson clothes, a jade belt around the waist, and flower boots on the feet, the face is like powder, and the lips are like grease, standing by the king's side.The king said: "The child was swimming in the water every day. Unfortunately, he was caught by a naughty boy. If Xie Yuan hadn't saved him with all his strength, he would have been a ruin. The gratitude of all the clans has never been forgotten. Now that this is the end, my son can thank him. "Mr. Xiao Lang approached and bowed down.Li Yuan hurriedly replied.The king said: "You are my son's great benefactor, and you can accept the gift."Li Yuan looked up at the king, his face was full of beards, and his eyes were full of light; the people on the left and right had different descriptions; Fang Wu knew that this was the Dragon Palace of the Water Palace.The one who sees it is the dragon king; standing next to the young man is the little snake rescued by Xiangri Sangaoshi Temple.Yuan hurriedly checked the door and worshiped at the bottom of the steps.The king got up and said: "This is not a place for benefactors. Please enter the palace and drink less." Li Yuan followed the king to the jade screen. , to a side hall.But you can see the brilliance of gold and green, dragon lanterns and Phoenix candles inside, jade furnaces spraying the fragrance of musk musk, and tassel belts floating on the embroidered curtain.There are two seats in the middle, all of which are supported by Jiaoxiao.Li Yuan was frightened and did not dare to sit down. The king ordered his left and right to help Li Yuan sit up.Immortal sounds linger on both sides, and dozens of beauties, each holding a musical instrument, enter one by one.Those who hold treasure cups and plates in front of them to offer wine and fruit are all stunning beauties.But when he smelled the fragrant fragrance and the auspicious air, Li Yuan was at a loss and was intoxicated.The king ordered the two sons to drink, and the two sons both held glasses and worshiped again.The fruit on the stage is outstanding, and the utensils are all made of glass, crystal, amber, and agate. The music is so ingenious that it does not belong to the world.Wang Zi got up and persuaded Li Yuan to drink. It tasted very good, and there were so many delicacies that he didn't know what it was.The king ordered all the prime ministers to raise their glasses to persuade each other. Li Yuan didn't feel drunk, so he got up and worshiped the king, saying: "I really can't drink too much." He fell down on the ground and couldn't get up.The king ordered his attendants to help him out of the hall and send him to the guest house to rest.

Li Yuan sobered up, and the red sun was already shining through the window.Looking at it in shock, the bed and curtains in the room are all surrounded by Jiaojiao.After finishing washing according to the arrangement, Zhu Xiucai came to the room to invite me at night.He does not wear the Confucian clothes of the world, wraps a ball head cap, wears a crimson gauze robe, and jade belt soap boots; each of the followers holds an axe.Li Yuan said, "it's very rude to be drunk at night." Zhu Wei said, "I have nothing to offer. I'm glad to beg for forgiveness. My father and king have been waiting for a long time. Please invite your benefactor to have dinner in the side hall." Li Yuan was introduced to the king.Said: "Jie Yuan is open-minded, and it is not too late to live for a few days." Li Yuan worshiped again and said: "The King of He is kind. The family respect ordered Li Yuan to return to his hometown to serve his mother, and he went to the spring election. The day is approaching. He is also a servant. If you don't see me for a long time, you will be worried; if you go back to Hangzhou and report to your father, you will have long-term concerns. Therefore, I dare not stay long, so I just leave." Wang said: "Since Xie Yuan is going to go, I dare not stay long. Although there are fine grains, It is not enough to repay a great kindness, but those who want it should give it up one by one." Li Yuan said: "How dare you look past it? But it is enough to be satisfied in your life!" Wang laughed and said: "Since Xie Yuan wants my daughter to be his wife, dare not Ordered? But after three years, you must return." Wang Nai rumored that he summoned a woman he liked.

After a while, all the attendants surrounded a beautiful woman to the front.Yuan Nai looked at him stealthily, with foggy temples and cloud-shaped hairpins, willow eyebrows and starry eyes, with the appearance of overwhelming the country and the city, the appearance of sinking fish and falling geese.The king pointed to this girl and said: "My daughter is what I want. Since the king asks for it, I would like to offer you a dustpan." Li Yuan worshiped the ground and said: "If you want to be satisfied, you can go to the imperial examination in one fell swoop to satisfy your heart. How dare you hope?" Is the celestial girl your spouse?" The king said: "This girl's pet name is Xin, and since you named Xu Jun, you can't regret it. If you want to enter the imperial examination, just ask this girl, and you can do it." Wang Nai called Zhu Wei: "Send this girl with you. Let Xie Yuan go together." Li Yuan thanked him again.Zhu Wei led Li Yuan out of the palace and went to the side of the boat together. Seeing that the woman had changed her makeup, she was in the boat first.Zhu Wei said: "The world is separated, and it is not as good as sending it off in person. I beg to take care of you." Li Yuan said: "Father, who is a sage? Please beg for your name." Zhu Wei said: "My father is the leader of the dragons in the West Sea. The Jade Emperor ordered to guard this place. Fortunately, the water is clean and clear, which is enough to honor my descendants. When you go here, you must not reveal the secrets, or you may suffer a catastrophe; and you must not ask my sister, be careful!" Yuan Gong listened , As farewell to board the boat, Zhu Wei gave away a package of gold beads.But I heard the sound of wind and rain in my ears, but I didn't feel the side of the long bridge.The man sent the girl to land with Li Yuan, took the gold beads, and hurriedly sailed away. The two oars flew like flying, and suddenly disappeared.Li Yuan seems to feel Fangjue in a dream, looking back at the woman beside him, he is pleasantly surprised.Yuanyu woman said: "Your father ordered you and me to be husband and wife, will you go with me?" The woman said: "The concubine was ordered by the king to serve the dustpan, but I can't tell my family. If it leaks, the concubine can't." I’ll be staying here for a long time.” Li Yuan led the woman to the side of the boat, and his servant Wang An was suspicious, and he entered the boat and said: “The eastern man does not return all night, so where can I not find the villain? I don’t know where he is.” Li Yuan said: “I see A friend invited me to drink wine on the lake, so she married me." Wang An didn't dare to ask the reason.Ask the woman to get off the boat, put the gold beads in the bag, and pack up the boat.

All the way across the river and across the dam, look at Chenzhou.Shengtang went to see his mother, and after talking about his father's affairs, he knelt down and said: "My son married a woman on the way, but I didn't get the order of my parents, so I dare not go to see her." The mother said: "It is an ancient ritual to marry a man and hire a woman. Since you are married, why don't you bring her back?" The mother ordered the woman she liked to visit the old mother, and the whole family was overjoyed.It's only been a few days since I moved home, and it's almost the trial period.Li Yuan saw that the woman she liked was clever and intelligent, and she could understand everything, so he asked, "Your father once said that if you want to be admitted to the imperial examination, you must ask you. Come to the examination hall, what experience do you have to teach me?" The woman said: "Tonight, I will take the test questions first. You made the article at home first, and you will write it according to the original." Li Yuan said, "It's so wonderful! Where did you get this question?" The woman said: "I close my eyes, be careful Don't watch the show." Li Yuan didn't believe it.The woman returned to her room and firmly closed the door.But when a gust of wind blew up, the curtains rolled up.About more, the woman opened an account and came out, holding the test questions and yuan.Yuan Daxi, wantonly searched the book, and made the article.I was admitted to the hospital tomorrow, and if it was this question, I solved it in one go.It was the same in the days to come, in three games in a row, women flew into the hospital and stole their titles.Until the opening of the rankings, Li Yuanguo passed the high school.When he first served as the judge of Jiangzhou, he congratulated him and took office immediately.One year, the Zouyuan was changed.The three-year term expires, except for the magistrate of Wujiang County in the south of the Yangtze River.Citing the beloved woman and five servants, resigning from the duties of their parents who came to this place.

Not a few days after arriving in office, the satisfied woman suddenly resigned from Li Yuan one day and said: "Three years ago, because of the life-saving grace of my younger brother, my parents taught me to offer a dustpan. Now it has expired, so I should resign. You should take care of yourself." Li Yuan was reluctant to give up, and wanted to hug her forward, but a gust of wind sent the woman flying outside the door, clouds formed on the soles of her feet, and she slowly flew away.Li Yuan cried loudly on his back.The woman said: "Don't miss your youth, don't look for a good match. If you are an official, you should retreat. If you don't return, you will be severely punished. Talking about small poems will always be a mark." A piece of flower paper flew down in the air, There is a poem that says: "Three years of remuneration have been satisfactory, so don't ponder when I go back. The snow is buried in the waves in the Yuhua Palace, and where can I find it when the moon is full?" Li Yuan was always depressed.In the next three years, after the official completion, he returned to Chenzhou.In addition to the secretary, Prime Minister Wang was recruited as his son-in-law, and he was tired of officials to the Minister of the Ministry of officials.Until now, there is still a Dragon King Temple outside the west gate of Wujiang, which was established by Li Yuan in the old days.There is a poem that says: In the past, Liu Yi sent letters, but today Li Yuanfeng is satisfied.Do good deeds with compassion and kindness, and the blessings will come naturally.
