That night, Chu Yu asked his two sons about the general situation of their date, and then called his ancestor Lu Yideng for advice.
Lu Yideng said: "The beauty of the country and the fragrance of the country are synonymous with peonies. It is said in ancient books that one day in the Tang Dynasty, there was heavy snowfall and people were shivering with cold. Wu Zetian couldn't rest and had to go to the back garden to play. There were no flowers in the back garden in the winter. The back garden was full of flowers.
It was a withered place. When she saw this miserable situation, she suddenly said: "I will go to Shangyuan tomorrow morning to announce the spring as soon as possible. The flowers will bloom all night long. Don't wait for the morning breeze to urge me."
This sentence stumped the people below. This cold winter month has to bloom out of season. What should I do?
Unfortunately, the flowers really bloomed the next day, and Wu Zetian saw all the flower buds sprouting out. She couldn't help but sigh, God help me, but there was still a bunch of them in a miserable state. Wu Zetian's face instantly turned dark, "What kind of flower is this? How dare you?"
Violate my decree?"
When everyone took a look, they turned out to be peonies.
Wu Zetian was furious when she heard this and banished these disobedient peonies to Luoyang.
It is strange to say that when the peonies arrived in Luoyang, they bloomed vigorously! This made Wu Zetian angry again, and sent people to burn the beautiful scenery. The peonies became more and more prosperous in the fierce fire. The peonies bloomed more and more vigorously.
In this way, we got the title of "Burned Bone Peony".
Chu Yu asked: "Ancestor, what do you mean by telling this story?"
Lu Yideng continued: "Xue Baochai in Dream of Red Mansions had a fever when she was born and could not stop taking Lengxiang Pills. According to people's speculation, she is the incarnation of a peony. She has a gold lock with the words "Follow us forever, we will never leave."
Abandon"."
Chu Yu said: "But the rune you see is 'Enjoy immortal blessings forever, and the country will be beautiful and fragrant'."
Lu Yideng said with a "haha" smile: "Since the Tang Dynasty, few people know the runes. They read the beauty of the country and the fragrance of the country as never leaving, so that is possible."
Chu Yu was silent for a moment and then asked: "Excuse me, ancestor, what kind of flower is Lin Daiyu in Dream of Red Mansions? Is it the Crimson Pearl Immortal Grass? What is the Crimson Pearl Immortal Grass?"
Lu Yideng said: "The Crimson Pearl Immortal Grass is a fabrication. Daiyu is the owner of the hibiscus flower. Chapter 63 of Dream of Red Mansions: Daiyu thought silently: "I wonder if there is anything better that I can grab." She reached out to take it.
There was a branch of hibiscus painted on it, and the inscription was "The wind and dew clear the sorrow". There was an old poem on the side, which said: Don't blame the east wind and sigh yourself. Everyone laughed and said: "This is great. Except for him, no one else
Not worthy of being a hibiscus." Daiyu also laughed to herself.
What is hibiscus? There are two explanations for it. One is hibiscus. Its flowering period is in autumn, and it is a flower destined to suffer from frost and cold. When the east wind blows in spring and hundreds of flowers bloom, hibiscus does not bloom, so it is called hibiscus.
The poem "I complain about the east wind and sigh myself". Another explanation is that hibiscus is lotus, and lotus blooms in summer."
After asking about it, Chu Yu felt much lighter.
What she rejected in her heart was the flower demon, not the flower fairy. If she had two flower fairies as her daughter-in-law, she would still be very happy.
But in the opinion of the ancestor Lu Cheng, what is the difference between a demon and a flower fairy? Regardless of whether you are a human or a demon, if your skill reaches a certain level, you can become an immortal. There is essentially no difference. Just like Qingmei now, after cultivating into a mysterious fairy
, the body structure and genetic proteins are exactly the same as humans!
If we count from the Tang Dynasty, to 3244, it has a history of 2,500 years. Considering that during Wu Zetian's time, peony flowers had already become immortals and had been practiced for at least 500 years, so these two flower fairies are both over 3,000 years old.
Elves, immortal souls, were thrown into their mother's womb and reincarnated many times.
From this point of view, Cao Xueqin's writing of Dream of Red Mansions may be the same as Xu Zhonglin's writing of The Romance of the Gods. They were both coerced by the wind and flowing clouds in the sky, mixed with fragments of ghosts, and dreamed of the Taixu illusion in the dark, thus writing a popular story.
, and some of the characters in the story actually existed.
Just like Jiang Qiuyun writing a book, she can sit on the top of a mountain, type blindly with her eyes closed, not thinking about anything, let the green wind blow, the bright moon shines in the sky, and the floating clouds bring endless inspiration, and write a long article,
When I opened my eyes, I was surprised even myself.
In the final analysis, spiritual energy is the basis for changes in ghosts, flowers, trees, birds, animals, and humans. Without the revival of spiritual energy, none of this can last. Lin Daiyu died when she was only a teenager, and Xue Baochai lived for a few more years relying on a golden lock. p>
After Chu Yu hung up the phone, she found a copy of Dream of Red Mansions and read it.
She occasionally reads some red studies.
One day, she called Lu Yideng again: "Ancestor, is the story of Dream of Red Mansions about Nanjing or BJ?"
Lu Yideng replied: "It's neither Nanjing nor BJ, but Chang'an City. That's where we live now!"
"Why?"
"It was written clearly."
"Where?"
"Chapter 6: Grandma Liu said to her son-in-law Gou'er: "Although we live away from the city now, we are still at the feet of the Emperor. There is money everywhere in Chang'an City, but it's a pity that no one will take it.
In Chapter 15, Lao Ni from Mantou Temple interceded with Wang Xifeng and said, "It's just because I became a monk in Shancai Temple in Chang'an County that day..." After that, Sister Feng ordered someone to write a letter and went to Chang'an County overnight." Chapter 17, Lin Zhixiao came back again: "There is another spiritual practitioner outside. Because he heard that there are Guanyin relics and Beiye relics in the capital of Chang'an, he came up with the master last year, and now he lives in Muni Temple outside the west gate.
."
Chapter 56, Zhen Baoyu said in her dream: "I heard the old lady say that there is also a Baoyu in the capital of Chang'an who has the same temperament as me."
After a pause, Chu Yu asked again: "Ancestor, Xue Baochai later gave birth to his son Jia Gui, and Jia Gui and his cousin Jia Lan Lan Gui Qifang, is it possible that this is true?"
Lu Yideng replied: "This is purely Gao E's trick. Not only did Xue Baochai have no sons, but he was also perfect until his death."
"Ah? Why is this?"
"Chapter 40," Jia Muji entered the house. It was like a snow cave, with no playthings at all. There was only a few chrysanthemums in an earthen vase on the table. There was only a green gauze curtain hanging on the bed, and the quilt was also very simple.
"The furnishings of Xue Baochai's room are Cao Xueqin's deliberate allusion to her ending after being left behind, and a representation of Xue Baochai's lonely life after Jia Baoyu left.
Jia's mother died on the day Xue Baochai married Jia Baoyu, and the two had to observe mourning for one year and could not consummate the marriage. Soon after, Jia's family was ransacked and many people were destroyed. Jia Baoyu was deeply affected and left home, and was inspired by a leprous monk to become a monk.
Lengxiang pills are made from four-season white flower stamens, and the flowers will no longer be strong after the stamens are removed, which means that there are no children.
Furthermore, if you take Lengxiang Pills frequently, your blood will be hot and your gas will be burned, and your physiological functions will be disordered. Even if a man does not become a monk, it will be difficult for him to get pregnant."
After hearing this, Chu Yu felt sad in her heart and said: "I thought Lin Daiyu was very pitiful, but I didn't expect Xue Baochai to be even more pitiful!"
With compassion in mind, when he looked at the two girls, he felt that they were pitiful. So on the weekend, Chu Yu asked his son to invite them to his home for dinner.
Chu Yu and Lu Dengtang live in the "Wutong Villa" at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
The two girls came to the villa. After getting over their initial restraint, they helped Chu Yu take care of the garden and planted peonies and hibiscus. They grew extremely well and the flowers bloomed beautifully. It was a pleasure to look at.
