266, wish

After Wei Xinyu saw Beldan away, he returned to the wedding table. At this time, the host announced the wedding ceremony. Everyone raised their glasses frequently and toasted each other, and began to drink at the wedding banquet. Before he could sit down, Lu Xiangdong walked over with a glass of wine and smiled. Following him was Jie Suli holding a drink in his hand. Lu Xiangdong patted Wei Xinyu on the shoulder, congratulations:

"Congratulations to your son for picking up a beautiful daughter-in-law! I wish you a grandson as soon as possible."

Wei Xinyu immediately picked up a wine glass from the table, clinked the glass with Lu Xiangdong, and said:

"Thank you, thank you, cheers!"

The two of them raised their heads and dried up the wine in their glasses. Wei Xinyu picked up the bottle on the table and added wine to Lu Xiangdong. Xie Suli stretched the cup to Heng Liya and said:

"congratulations!"

Heng Liya smiled and said, "Happy together!"

After the two women clinked glasses, they drank the drink in the glass. Immediately afterwards, many people walked up to Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya to congratulate. Wei Xinyu drank a lot of wine. Heng Liya knew that he was a metal man. The wine was like ordinary water in his stomach. There was no need to worry that he would get drunk. He just felt that eating it was wasted in his stomach, which was a bit of a waste of treasure.

The son Wei Zhen and his daughter-in-law Jing Zhonghua also came to Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya to toast them. Wei Zhen and Jing Zhonghua both looked flushed and seemed to have drunk a lot of wine. Wei Zhen held the wine glass and said to them:

"Thank you for taking care of me all the time. From today on, I have grown up and can take on the heavy responsibility of my family. Cheers!"

Jing Zhonghua raised the wine glass in her hand and said, "Cheers!"

Heng Liya happily raised her cup and said, "My son has grown up. Congratulations to you, cheers!"

"Cheers!" Wei Xinyu said excitedly. After clinking glasses, he drank the wine in the glass in one sip. Then he said, "My wish is to hope that you will live a peaceful life in the future. Those who are fathers do not want you to take risks again."

General Jing walked over with a cup and said, "Well said it! I think that being able to live a peaceful life is the greatest happiness."

Chairman Wang Shouren also came to join in the fun, and he said with a smile:

"The struggle of our generation is for the happiness of our descendants in the future. Am I right? Come and toast!"

After everyone clinked glasses, Wei Zhen and Jing Zhonghua went to the next door to toast. Chairman Wang Shouren and General Jing sat in the two empty seats beside Wei Xinyu and started chatting with Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya while talking about Wei Zhen and Jing Zhonghua's future work arrangements, General Jing said to Chairman Wang Shouren very bluntly:

"Although Wei Zhen is my son-in-law, I still recommend it to you. His ability is much stronger than mine. Before he became the captain of the Dark Planet Expedition Team, he was already the commander of the Earth Star Kingdom Space Fleet. Now that he is back, at least let him resume his post."

Chairman Wang Shouren smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, we have already made arrangements for his position."

Wei Xinyu asked with great concern: "What position are you going to arrange for him?"

Chairman Wang Shouren said: "In order to threaten foreign countries, the Earth Star Kingdom is preparing to establish the Earth Star Kingdom Space Expeditionary Fleet, and he will be the commander."

Wei Xinyu and Heng Liya said in unison: "No!"

Chairman Wang Shouren spread his hands and said, "Why can't it be? Wei Zhen was young and promising, and had been in the heavenly court. If he couldn't do it, no one could be the commander."

Heng Liya pointed to Wei Xinyu and said, "It is most suitable for him to be the commander of this space expeditionary fleet."

Chairman Wang Shouren turned his head and looked at Wei Xinyu and asked, "Are you willing? You have been ruling in front of me."

Wei Xinyu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it." For the sake of his son, he had to agree.

When Chairman Wang Shouren saw Wei Xinyu nodding and agreed, he was very happy and said, "Since you have served as the commander of the Space Expeditionary Fleet, I will arrange for Wei Zhen to be the Chief of Staff of the General Staff of the Earth Star Kingdom."

"Where is the flower in the Jing?" General Jing was afraid that the Chairman forgot to arrange her daughter.

"What's her?" Chairman Wang Shouren thought for a while and said, "The officials in all provinces and states of the Earth Star Kingdom are full. Now the third Women's President of the Earth Star Kingdom has not yet expired. It is a peaceful era again. According to regulations, women of her age need to retire. We need to consider her work."

Heng Liya suggested: "Does there be a laboratory for building Superman in our Yanggong Temple? I suggest setting up a Dixing Kingdom Gene Research Institute to continue to do Superman experiments. It belongs to the army organization, so that Jing Zhonghua can be the director and the general level is not a loss for her."

Chairman Wang Shouren reminded: "The Genetic Research Institute of Earth Star Kingdom is already available."

Heng Liya thought for a while and said, "The laboratory is in Yanggong Temple, and is called the Dixing Kingdom Buddhist Institute outside and the Dixing Kingdom Superman Experimental Research Institute inside."

Chairman Wang Shouren thought it was feasible, and he said: "Okay, wait until I discuss with the Vice Chairman and the Prime Ministers before making a decision."

Chairman Wang Shouren believed that his goal had been achieved and had taken a special car to go home before the wedding was over.

The wedding lasted until after supper.

Soon the Dixing Kingdom Buddhist Research Institute was established, and Jing Zhonghua became the director of the institute. Many monks in Yanggong Temple were surprised that the qualification of the Dixing Kingdom Buddhist Research Institute should be Elder Yihong, or Wei Zhen could do it, but it was really difficult to convince the public. Elder Yihong had to explain to his disciples: She is the director of Buddhist studies, she is an official, not a practitioner.

In order to match her position as director, Jing Zhonghua spent several days with Wei Zhen to write a book "A Brief Lecture on the Origin of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom" and published it overnight at Dixing Kingdom Publishing House.

However, most monks in Yanggong Temple knew Jingzhonghua. They only knew that Jingzhonghua was a female pilgrimage, and they still talked a lot, believing that Jingzhonghua did not understand Buddhist scriptures and did not have the ability to be the director. In order to make these monks shut up, Heng Liya discussed with Elder Yihong, thinking that Jingzhonghua would teach monks and pilgrims in the Buddhist temple.

Elder Yihong was a little hesitant, and he asked Heng Liya:

"Can she do it?"

Heng Liya handed Jing Zhonghua's book "A Brief Lecture on the Origin and Stream of Buddhism in Earth Star Kingdom" to Elder Yihong, saying:

"After you read the book she wrote, you think he is qualified. Her speech should be fine. She has put all the Buddhist scriptures in her brain, and I am just worried about her performance on the spot."

Elder Yihong briefly read Jing Zhonghua's work "A Brief Introduction to the Origin of Buddhism in Earth Star Kingdom" and said:

"I will answer you after I read this book."

"Okay." Heng Liya nodded and said, "I'll wait for your news."

Elder Yihong spent a day reading Jing Zhonghua's "A Brief Lecture on the Origin and Flow of Buddhism in Earth Star Kingdom" and thought that she wrote very well, and it didn't feel like Jing Zhonghua's work alone. The content seemed to be Wei Zhen's statement, but this was a rare Buddhist book. He decided to listen to Jing Zhonghua's speech again to see if she really has this level.

Wei Zhen's wish was to let Jing Zhonghua promote Buddhism for him. Of course, he was unwilling to let his wife make a fool of herself in the Buddhist temple. Therefore, Jing Zhonghua's speech was carefully revised by him, and he tried his best to be foolproof.

In order to listen to Jing Zhonghua's speech, Elder Yihong found an inconspicuous position in the hall where he gave the speech. Today, the hall was full, and in addition to the pilgrims, there were many monks. Wei Xinyu, Heng Liya and Wei Zhen sat down in the last row.

The scenery flower was on the chair on the podium of the main hall. She raised a book in her hand and said to everyone with the help of a microphone:

"This is my recent "A Brief Lecture on the Origin and Stream of Buddhism in Earth Star Kingdom". If you are interested, you can go to the elders to collect it after I finish the speech."

The whole hall was silent, and the pilgrims and monks under the podium stared at the flowers in the scenery and listened to her speech:

"The content of my speech today is a very small part of my "A Brief Lecture on the Origin and Stream of Buddhism in Earth Star Country". This is my personal preliminary research result of Buddhism. I hope you can correct any inappropriate things."

Elder Yihong did not expect that the usual carefree flower in the scenery was extremely calm at this time and looked like a scholar.

Jing Zhonghua began her speech:

"Buddhism came from the distant earth to the earth planet. Its essence is wisdom. From the true meaning, it is emptiness, from the conventional truth, it is existence. I think the true meaning of Buddhism is the word "emptiness". Buddhism talks about all things being empty, form is emptiness, emptiness is form, etc. It talks about the word "emptiness". As the "Four Truths" realized after the enlightenment of the earth, namely "suffering, accumulation, extinction, and path", it finally comes down to the word "emptiness". Life is "suffering". The reason for suffering is "catastrophe". The so-called "catastrophe" refers to the intersection of human desires and the objective environment. The objective environment will never be preset according to human desires. When a person's desires cannot be satisfied in objective reality, he will inevitably feel suffering. In this case, he must "destroy" all kinds of desires and troubles, and achieve the highest ideal of leaving the world - Nirvana and tranquility. This is "emptiness"."

The first time the pilgrims on Earth heard about the earth, they felt that they were in the clouds and were discussing quietly in private, and the hall began to be a little messy. Elder Yihong stood up and explained to everyone:

"This is a fact that Director Jing said that Buddhism was transmitted from the distant earth to the Earth planet. This earth is parallel to our Earth planet. Scientists on our Earth planet have explored the location of the Earth. He published an article on the situation of the Earth in parallel space in the 9th issue of "Exploration" this year. You can read it and you will know what the Earth is going on."

After Elder Yihong sat down, Director Jing continued her speech:

"The so-called "emptiness" means that when facing life, no matter whether it appears to be bitter, happy, and virtuous, the mind can be free from worries and discrimination, and even if a temporary affliction occurs, it can be subdued by the Dharma. In this way, freedom and happiness can be obtained. When all appearances no longer bind one's heart, there is no pain. At this time, it is the Western Pure Land, which is freedom, liberation, and the highest state of Buddhism! I believe that believers who have first begun to enter Buddhism should feel very considerate in this understanding, but in fact it is true.

Some people believe that the highest state of Buddhism is to stay calm for a long time without a single thought. This is due to the lack of understanding of Buddhism. Buddhism does not teach us to passively avoid the world, nor does it mean to turn a sentient being into a numb and ruthless person, nor does it mean to establish a Western Pure Land in other places, waiting for when to be reborn. The so-called highest state of Buddhism is a comprehensive category, and the state of not being distracted in the heart can be possessed even in worldly meditation. Therefore, it is still very biased to use it as the standard for judging the state."

...

Although Jing Zhonghua's speech was controversial, her speech was successful, especially the "A Brief Lecture on the Origin and Stream of Buddhism in the Earth Star Kingdom" she wrote was praised by many Buddhists. Her research was recognized by the Buddhist community on Earth Planet. She served as the director of the Buddhist Institute of Earth Star Kingdom from then on, no one raised any objections.
