Chapter 56 Buddha Lamp
When Li Chengqian limped and rushed to Lizheng Hall, King Li Tai of Wei had not arrived yet, and Empress Changsun was accompanied by Li Shimin and the eight-year-old King of Jin Li Zhi.
Several imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Department gathered together and were discussing a good prescription for treating Empress Changsun.
Li Chengqian ran to Li Shimin, knelt down and saluted, "My son has seen his father, father, mother, and queen?"
"Get up." Li Shimin waved his hand weakly to signal Li Chengqian to get up and said, "Sit down, sit next to your mother. Your mother has always loved you, so stay with her more now."
"Thank you, Father." Li Chengqian got up from the ground and sat down next to Li Zhi. Looking at Empress Changsun, who was lying on the bed, with a pale face, tears couldn't help but flow out. Holding Empress Changsun's cold hand, she cried and said, "My Mother! Queen! Wake up, I am the godson, Queen, open your eyes and look at the son minister, Queen!"
When Li Shimin saw him crying sadly, he felt sad. Changsun married him for twenty-three years since he was thirteen. Most of this time spent in war and uneasy. Even when she gave birth to Li Chengqian, he was unable to accompany him because he went out to fight.
Li Shimin felt guilty about this wife.
Li Shimin patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder and said, "Don't do this, your mother has always been strong. If she knew you were crying so hard, she would definitely not be happy. Don't let her mother feel sad anymore."
Having seen the separation of life and death on the battlefield, Li Shimin had already taken a light on a person's life and death. However, this Changsun made him feel extremely reluctant to leave in his heart.
Li Chengqian wiped away the tears from his face and asked Li Shimin: "Father, what do the imperial physicians say? Is it true that the queen of mother?"
"It's hard to say whether they can survive. The imperial physicians are also discussing countermeasures and treating diseases and saving lives. They are experts. Even if we have the will, we can't help but think of the scene when they first met twenty-three years ago. At that time, she was still a lively, healthy, and polite girl. How could it be like this in the blink of an eye?
"Emperor, Emperor!"
"Father!"
"Well, what's the matter?" Li Shimin was awakened by Li Chengqian nearby and asked in a voice.
Li Chengqian replied in a low voice: "Father, Prince Kui of the Imperial Physicians Department has something to report."
"Oh?" Li Shimin quickly asked Wang Zikui who was standing beside him, "Doctor Wang, do you have any flaws?!"
Wang Zikui stepped forward and bowed to report: "Back to the emperor, the Queen's Qi disease is caused by the previous wind and cold, which caused the old disease of the lungs, spleen and kidneys to weaken the yang energy of the lungs, spleen and kidneys, and the strong yin and cold evil in the body and insufficient yang energy. In addition, the Queen's body has always been weak and is not tolerant of severe cold, so she will have symptoms of long-term coughing, chest tightness and shortness of breath, which will lead to the symptoms of dizziness now. If you use medicine, you need to get it."
"Wang Qing," Li Shimin stopped Wang Zikui's pharmacology and pathology, and asked directly: "I just want to know now that you may be cured of the Queen's illness?"
Prince Kui knelt on the ground with a pounce, kowtowed and replied: "Go back to the emperor, I am incompetent! The Queen's illness can only be relieved and there is no cure. Please give me the crime!"
Liu Yiu was so entangled by Liu Er Tiao that he had to sit up and said, "Er Tiao, you are a scholar now. After this year, you are already at the age of hair removal. You are an adult, and you have to learn to deal with everything yourself. Besides, this is the duty of your scholars. How can you ask me a farmer? If this is rumored, wouldn't it be a joke?"
"Brother, I understand." Liu Ertiao nodded and admitted his mistake, and then defended himself: "But you are so talented, you are so talented and knowledgeable about ancient times and have a lot of knowledge. How can you compare to ordinary farmers? Even the gentlemen in our private schools are far less than one or two of the elder brothers. So when you ask for advice from me, Ertiao didn't think there would be anything wrong with me."
"You, really." Liu Yiu was in a good mood by Liu Erzhao's flattery and had mostly gone to sleep. He sat up straight and said to Liu Erzhao with a smile: "Okay, let's talk, what's the problem? How can it be difficult for Mr. Liu, who lives in our Liu family?"
"Brother, that's it." Seeing that Liu Yiu agreed to help, Liu Erzhao said anxiously: "It's a very strange first couplet. It's a question from a strange old man who sells lanterns. The content is: Sishui River is the first, Sishui Xia is the second, and I live in Jiangxia. Who is the first, who is the second?"
"Si Shui River is the first, the second in the four seasons. I live in Jiangxia. Who is the first and who is the second? Jiangxia, Jiangxia, um, yes, it's interesting." Liu Yiuan savored it for a while, and asked Liu Eryou with a smile: "What is the dress of the old man who gave you the question? Why did he ask you such a difficult problem? Isn't there no reason?"
Liu Yi said, "That's why I said he was strange. The old man was obviously dressed up by a lantern vendor, but his lanterns could not be bought with silver. He had to find the poems, lyrics or couplets under each lantern."
"Oh? Then his lantern must be very unique? It can make you give up the lively lantern market and come back early to wait for me." Liu Yiu was also interested. He became curious about the lantern seller. He thought that the person could come up with such a way to sell lanterns. He must be a gentleman, which is much better than Du Zigui who seeks fame and reputation.
"The lantern is a very strange Buddha lamp. It looks like a Buddha sitting cross-legged, holding a tribute with both hands and smiling, looking very detailed. If I see him, I will definitely like it." Liu Erzhao said that his eyes were lit, and he could tell that he really wanted to take the lantern home.
"You are really interested. When you are playing, you still know how to think about your mother." Liu You smiled comfortably. Liu He believes in Buddhism, worships Buddha, and respects Buddha. If Liu Eryou gives her a unique Buddha lamp, she will definitely be happy.
At the same time, Liu Yiu also thought of the second couplet of the old man selling lamps in the meaning of the Buddha lamp.
Buddhism is one of the three religions, which is inferior to Confucianism and on the Tao. Before the Tang monk returned, Confucianism ranked first.
Liu Yiu thought about it in his heart, then smiled and said to Liu Eryi: "I have already thought of the second couplet. You go and get the pen and ink, write it down, and change the light."
"Hey, I knew this would be a big brother!" Liu Ertiao responded and rushed out of the door with jumping and jumping.
When he brought the paper and pen, Liu Yi was not polite, and took the pen and wrote on the paper: "The three religions and Confucians are in front, and the three talents are in the future. A boy is a Confucian. How dare he be in front and how dare he be in the future?"
After blowing the wet ink trace twice, Liu Yidian handed the paper to Liu Yidian and said, "Okay, take it. After the matter is over, don't bother me to sleep."
