Chapter 1353
Emperor Xuanzong waved his hand while speaking.
Chu Dou, who was waiting outside the pavilion, walked into the pavilion with a wooden box, and then several soldiers came in. Chu Dou opened the wooden box and took out a stack of papers inside. He tore the papers apart and asked several soldiers to pinch a corner of the paper and flatten it completely. The pattern printed on the paper was completely presented in front of Su Wu and Emperor Xuanzong.
The paper was several feet long.
The content presented on the paper was exactly the pattern that appeared on the "wordless stele" mentioned by Xuanzong. This picture was completely copied from the wordless stele of Qianling by the stele recorder of Zongzheng Temple, and basically retained the original appearance of the pattern on the stele. Therefore, Su Wu only took a glance at the rubbing pattern and felt a chill in his heart.
Although the rubbing picture only depicts a dangerous mountain, a huge axe chopping it, and a woman being pressed down by the mountain, Su Wu clearly read another meaning from the painting. He frowned and said to Emperor Xuanzong: "Your Majesty, when I look at this rubbing picture, I clearly feel that someone in the picture is asking for help from me!
The person asking for help should be the woman under the mountain!"
"Do you have this feeling too?" Xuanzong looked at the woman under the mountain. In this rubbing picture, the woman's hair color could no longer be seen. The text record attached by the stele recorder clearly said that the woman being pressed down by the mountain was a white-haired woman!
The Qianling stele without words was erected by 'Zetian Dacheng Tianhou'.
Since the stele was erected, the "stele appearance" of the stone steles in front of the tombs of the ancestors of the Joseon Dynasty has gradually attracted attention. The "stele appearance" on many tombstones in the world has been taken seriously by people. Later, people who can understand the "stele appearance", rubbing the stele appearance, and observe the stele appearance entered the court, mainly inspecting the stele forests of the ancestral temples and imperial tombs, recording the stele appearance, and analyzing the stele appearance.
Such officials are sometimes called "stele appearance", which means "prime minister in the stele".
The official title is actually "stele recorder".
Since then, most of the ministers and junior ministers of the Zongzheng Temple have been born as stele recorders.
When Emperor Xuanzong received the stele appearance rubbing picture sent by the stele recorder of Qianling Mausoleum, and in the text records, the "stele appearance" also said that when he viewed the picture, he clearly felt that the white-haired woman in the painting was asking for help from him!
But Xuanzong himself did not have any obvious feelings when viewing the stele appearance rubbing picture.
After hearing what Su Wu said, he truly believed that what the stele recorder said was true.
"The stele without words was erected by the Queen Mother.
Since this 'Splitting the Mountain Picture' is shown on this stele, and you and the stele recorder of Qianling both said that they felt that the person in the painting was asking for help from the living outside the painting... Could it be that the 'Queen Mother' encountered something dangerous, so she asked for help from the outside world through the stele without words she erected?" Xuanzong frowned deeply and spoke to Su Wu in a low voice.
Su Wu said: "It is indeed possible.
Did the stele recorder leave any other words?
What judgment did he make?"
After hearing this, Xuanzong looked at Su Wu, and asked Chu Dou to take out a letter and handed it to Su Wu together with the stele rubbing.
Su Wu opened the letter and saw the handwriting of the stele recorder.
The stele recorder said in the secret letter that the stele image should be a picture of "splitting the mountain to save the mother", and the reason why the mountain slashed by the giant axe shed blood is that the mountain is not a "dead thing", but a living thing. The bleeding caused by the axe is to show that "the mountain has come alive".
The white-haired woman suppressed at the foot of the mountain, although her face is unclear, but since she has white hair, she should be regarded as an old woman.
The whole picture of splitting the mountain to save the mother is actually a reminder to the saint to save the old woman suppressed at the foot of the mountain as soon as possible, and that old woman is most likely the Empress Wu Zetian who has already passed away!
The stele recorder's speculation on the changes in the stele image is indeed to the point.
Su Wu looked at the rubbing again and felt that the stele recorder's speculation was not wrong, but he knew more about the things outside the painting. Combining the things outside the painting with the rubbing, many things became uncertain.
For example, although the "Queen of Heaven" has passed away, there is only her cenotaph in Qianling Mausoleum.
Although she seemed to be buried with Emperor Gaozong, her body was not in Qianling Mausoleum. There was even a long-standing rumor that Empress Wu Zetian's body was actually under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, protected by Buddhism, waiting for the right time in the Buddha's light to turn death into life, incarnate into Maitreya, and be reborn in the Three Realms.
It happened that when Su Wu first entered the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, he saw a kind-looking female Maitreya in the inner courtyard of the stalactite cave. After that, he was summoned by Emperor Xuanzong and entered the palace to rescue Danjia and Zhuoma Zunsheng from the Tibetan sacred jade. The sacred jade suddenly turned into a lotus and fell on the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
It was also at that time that Su Wu noticed the "restless aura" of Lu Mu.
He therefore speculated that Lu Mu left at least one opportunity in Vajrabodhi, and followed the Tibetan envoy team all the way to the Tang Dynasty.
After that, Amoghavajra "died", and when Su Wu wanted to explore the twelve-petal white jade lotus floating out of Amoghavajra, he was directly obstructed by Lu Mu's strange aura - those miserable green eyes!
He was even more certain that Mother Lu had already made a move on the giant Tang chessboard!
Not long after that, the "Picture of Splitting the Mountain to Save Mother" suddenly appeared on the wordless stele of Qianling Mausoleum.
Is this a call for help from the "Queen of Heaven"?
Or did "Mother Lu" deliberately leave this picture on the wordless stele after occupying the magpie's nest to lure people to rescue her?
Or, although this is a picture left by the "Queen of Heaven" on the wordless stele, the real purpose of the "Queen of Heaven" is not to ask people to rescue her, but to use it to lead to other plans of her own, such as "Maitreya's descent"?
Earlier, Emperor Xuanzong suddenly asked about the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and he had these concerns. Even after his grandmother died, she never rested!
"What do you think this picture means?" Emperor Xuanzong stared at Su Wu and asked.
Su Wu folded the picture scroll and handed it to Chu Dou along with the secret letter. He bowed to Emperor Xuanzong and said, "Your Majesty, I see that the bleeding and dangerous mountains in the picture are vaguely similar to Huashan Mountain in Xiyue." , you can ask the Taoist priest to send you the true shape map of the five mountains, and compare the two, and you will find that the giant mountain that was chopped by the ax is none other than Mount Huashan in Xiyue.
This picture of chopping up a mountain to save his mother also reminded me of an anecdote from the folk.
That is the story of Erlang chopping up a mountain to save his mother. "
Nowadays, the story of "splitting a mountain to save one's mother" has already taken shape among the people. However, it was not until the middle of the Tang Dynasty that "Guang Yi Ji" recorded the love affair between the "Three Holy Mothers of Huashan" and a traveling scholar. The story of splitting a mountain to save one's mother gradually became more popular. It took shape even later in the Song Dynasty.
But what Su Wu told was a folk tale after all, and it was not said to be true in the world. It was impossible for Emperor Xuanzong to get to the bottom of it just because of a story.
Su Wu slightly adapted the story of Erlang cutting a mountain to save his mother and told it to Xuanzong.
After listening to Su Wu's "story of chopping a mountain to save his mother," Xuanzong nodded and said, "Heaven has its laws, and the state has its laws. The Three Holy Mothers violated the laws of heaven, fell in love with a mortal, and gave birth to a child. She should be punished.
Yang Jian was indeed benevolent and filial. He carried the mountain to catch up with the sun but failed, and ended up "cutting the mountain to save his mother."
This folktale also has some meaning.
If this story is put into this picture of splitting the mountain to save the mother, the white-haired woman who was crushed under the Huashan Mountain is the "Three Holy Mothers". The giant ax fell from the top of the mountain to save the Three Holy Mothers at the bottom of the mountain. But who should it be? Swing this magical ax and split Huashan Mountain?
Could this Three Holy Mothers be the Queen of Heaven?
What kind of 'law' has she violated? "
Su Wu's eyes were filled with gleaming light, and he replied to Xuanzong: "In reality, the so-called rules of heaven are the principles of heaven. If the white-haired woman is regarded as the Queen of Heaven, then combined with the 'cry for help' revealed in this painting The intention is to order His Majesty to follow the story and cut down the mountain to save the Queen of Heaven.”
At this point, he paused and said, "But I thought otherwise."
The charm of heavenly law is strange and terrifying. Such heavenly law is completely aimed at keeping people alive. Whoever wants to follow heavenly law will not be spared his life. In such a situation, what is the use of adhering to heavenly law?
It is better to destroy the laws of heaven!
If Su Wu's thoughts fell into the ears of Emperor Xuanzong, even if Xuanzong was the most enlightened emperor at the time, he would never tolerate him - after all, the emperor was also the 'Son of Heaven' and naturally stood on the side of 'Heaven'. Therefore, Su Wu did not explicitly say that the laws of heaven are terrifying, but said: "If you look at it another way, it is not the white-haired woman suppressed at the foot of the mountain who violates the laws of nature, but what about Huashan itself?"
"Huh?" After hearing Su Wu's words, Emperor Xuanzong's eyes brightened slightly, and his attention was suddenly attracted.
Chu Dou, who was waiting by the pavilion, also quietly pricked up his ears.
Just listen to Su Wu continue to say: "In the monument, a huge ax fell from the sky, not because of human power, but because of the power of heaven, trying to destroy Huashan, so Huashan wept and shed blood.
This can be seen as Huashan violating the rules of heaven and causing heavy damage from the giant spirit axe.
But Huashan Mountain is just the shape of Dayue Mountain and has never been changed. How can there be any guilt?
Its crime should be the white-haired woman at the foot of the mountain. Just because it suppressed this white-haired woman, it violated the laws of heaven and was punished by heaven!
This woman is actually connected with the laws of heaven!
The cry for help that I sensed from the monument was actually not from the woman at the foot of the mountain, but from Huashan Mountain itself! "
"A woman, but connected to God's will?!" Emperor Xuanzong's eyes twitched, and the fear in his heart deepened.
Although the story of a woman inheriting destiny and the hen Sichen is a story from the previous dynasty, it is not far away from us - not long ago, he personally killed another princess who wanted to follow the story of the previous dynasty - Princess Taiping!
"Huashan Mountain is the root of China.
The Chinese character for Hua Xia is connected with Mount Hua.
This Huashan Mountain can also be regarded as the root of humanity.
In my opinion, this picture of splitting the mountain to save the mother is actually a struggle between heaven and humanity. Humanity is in danger, so it seeks help from the human king. "Su Wu lowered his eyes and finally made these remarks, the final word!
