Chapter 1598(1/2)
You went to the West to obtain scriptures under His Majesty's orders. Now that you have obtained the scriptures and come back, you don't want to meet His Majesty first, but instead come to this land of fireworks. You are really brave.
Seeing how anxious the old eunuch was, Tang Sanzang suddenly panicked.
What if he goes to see the King of Tang without any preparation, what if his secret is exposed? What if Li Shimin finds out that he has not obtained the true scriptures, and instead of doing his job, becomes a Taoist priest, his mood will definitely not be any better.
The emperor's power is unpredictable, and when he is angry, he will belch every minute.
In desperation, Tang Sanzang's heart moved, and he looked at Niyinlan and smiled:
"How dare this poor monk disobey His Majesty's orders? Please go ahead, my father-in-law. The poor monk will arrive shortly."
When the old eunuch heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed, he smiled and shook his head and said:
"That's not possible. I came here under the emperor's order. I must have the holy monk join the officialdom with me."
Just kidding, it was the King of Tang's will to let Tang Sanzang enter the palace. Now that Tang Sanzang was finally found, if he accidentally got lost, even ten of his heads wouldn't be enough to chop him off.
After all, the current Tang Sanzang's temperament has changed drastically, and he is completely different from the original Tang Sanzang.
He talks so much and looks unreliable.
Who, a serious monk, would come to a place like this with fireworks?
Tang Sanzang said with a charming smile:
"Father-in-law, can you be accommodating?"
I still want to buy some more time,
The old eunuch didn't want to be nagging anymore, for fear that the emperor would be anxious waiting, so he said directly:
"Here, please invite the holy monk into the palace."
The word "please" was pronounced with a stronger accent. The guard next to him immediately understood and came to Tang Sanzang's side with a smile.
"Holy Monk, please!"
Seeing a group of tall and thick guards approaching him, wanting to use guns, Tang Fuzang's face suddenly became panicked.
"You...what do you want to do?
"Holy monk, I'm offended!"
A group of guards nearby exchanged glances, took Tang Seng's arms and lifted him up.
"I am a holy monk of the Tang Dynasty and the emperor's younger brother. You can't do this to me?"
"If Your Majesty knew, he would not be able to spare you.
Tang Sanzang was dancing wildly with his hands and feet and screaming, but after all, he had just entered Taoism and his cultivation was still very basic. In terms of martial arts, how could he compare to this group of guards who were skilled in martial arts?
He was picked up like a chicken and left the brothel.
The old eunuch smiled secretly in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be:
"Don't be rude to the holy monk and set off quickly.
Pedestrians who were passing by saw a group of guards carrying a fat man in monk's robes out of a brothel, and they were immediately confused.
No reason, just because this combination is so strange, there are not only eunuchs but also monks.
As for the fat man, he was obviously wearing a monk's robe, but he had no bearing.
Eunuchs and monks appeared together in a brothel. No matter how bold the folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were, they were not so open, right?
It’s really a declining world and people’s hearts are not as old as they used to be!
Passers-by sighed inwardly.

Xiao family.
Qin Ran had just planted three top-quality innate spiritual roots and was about to take some time to refine the Heavenly Qingyun when he heard bursts of noise coming from the streets outside.
He frowned, made some calculations with his fingers, and his face suddenly became strange.
Tang Sanzang was really a genius, and he actually capsized in the gutter of Juci.
When he was in the brothel, he was caught on the spot by the palace guards and the monks of Hongfu Temple.
No one else has such luck!
Li Lizhi, who was sitting next to her and sipping tea, saw Qin Ran's strange expression and asked curiously:
"Husband, what's wrong?"
She was wearing a gorgeous long dress with a white gauze covering, and a golden walking stick in her black hair.
Her skin was as shiny as snow, and her pretty face was radiant and radiant.
The originally beautiful and elegant figure exuded an air of maturity.
It was a time of tenderness and sweetness, so her heart was focused on Qin Ran, and she could detect every move in an instant.
"It's nothing urgent, but Master Tripitaka seems to be in trouble."
Qin Ran sighed and said, "Sanzang?"
Li Lizhi thought about it for a moment and immediately realized. "`"Could your husband be talking about Tang Sanzang, the holy monk of the Tang Dynasty who went to the West with you to obtain Buddhist scriptures?"
Before Sanzang of the Tang Dynasty studied Buddhist scriptures, Buddhism was already prevalent in the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, with his pretty face and solid foundation in Buddhism, Tang Sanzang directly won the favor of the Tang king and held the Seven Seven Land and Water Conference in the Tang Dynasty.
Going to participate in the Land and Water Conference, many people listened to the Dharma lectures, including many high-ranking officials and nobles, and it became quite popular.
Therefore, Li Lizhi had some impressions of Tang Sanzang.
"Yes, that's him."
Qin Ran nodded and said.
"However, after Master Tripitaka retrieves the scripture, it stands to reason that my father should reward him vigorously. What trouble will he have?"
Li Lizhi said strangely.
And as far as she knew, before Tang Sanzang studied for scriptures, her father admired his piety and even directly became brothers with him.
All in all, the other party is a generation older than her.
Even if you can't go sideways in Chang'an, no one would dare to provoke this kind of sect. How could you get into trouble?
Qin Ran took a sip of water and said slowly:
"You don't know that Master Tripitaka returned to secular life halfway because he couldn't abide by the Buddhist rules and precepts and couldn't bear the loneliness."
"What? He returned to secular life?"
Li Lizhi's beautiful big eyes suddenly widened in surprise.
"No way, husband, I have seen this Master Tripitaka before. He looks respectful and honest, like an eminent monk. How could he become a monk and return to secular life?"
"Nothing is impossible. People will always change. You know people, but you don't know their hearts."
Qin Ran said this with peace of mind and no sense of guilt at all. In fact, he had at least half of the credit for Tang Sanzang becoming like this.
Li Lizhi was extremely smart and grasped the key point of the problem instantly.
"But if he returns to secular life, what will happen to him about studying Buddhist scriptures?"
"So, I say he's in big trouble."
Qin Ran said leisurely.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Lizhi's beautiful eyes flowed, and she suddenly thought of something, and she couldn't help but be even more surprised.
"Husband, do you mean to say that Tang Sanzang did not obtain the true scripture?"
You must know that Tang Sanzang went to the West to obtain the scriptures, but under the order of her father, if he could not obtain the scriptures, even if he disobeyed the emperor's order, ten heads would not be enough for him to chop off.
"Yes, although there is nothing unusual about this Mahayana Buddhist scripture, the Tao cannot be passed down lightly. Tang Sanzang is no longer a Buddhist disciple. How could it be passed on to him?
Qin Ran explained.
Li Lizhi couldn't help being surprised when she heard Qin Ran's tone that seemed to be a little disdainful of Mahayana Buddhist scriptures.
You must know that before Tang Sanzang went to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, Guanyin Bodhisattva from Lingshan Mountain in the West appeared at the Water and Land Conference and said that the Hinayana Buddhism preached by Tang Sanzang was not worth mentioning.
Then take advantage of the situation to carry out the Mahayana Buddhism.
It is said that this Mahayana Buddhism can relieve death and suffering, resolve hundreds of injustices, eliminate hopeless disasters, and save the evil nature.
This Buddhism was simply blown up to the sky, so much so that 163 her father could not help but feel so happy, and became extremely curious about Mahayana Buddhism, so he sent Tang Sanzang to the West to obtain the true scriptures.
But looking at Qin Ran's attitude now, it seems that this is not the case. This makes her curious, what happened on the journey to the west?
"Husband, I remember back then that Master Tripitaka made a great vow in front of my father in order to obtain the true scriptures. Now that he has returned empty-handed, my father will definitely be furious when he finds out."
Li Lizhi said worriedly.
"Should we go into the palace?"
"No need, Master Tripitaka is blessed with great fortune. At most he will suffer a little, but there will be no danger to his life."
