An additional update for brother ‘Shan Ling Yue’. Thank you for your reward. It’s finally finished. I’ll add an update for the hero tonight (*^_^*).

Just after the ugly time, all the courtiers left their homes. Surrounded by their entourage, they rode horses and sedans and went to the "Danfeng Gate" of Daming Palace to wait for the court.

As a result, all the courtiers gathered together and found that nearly half of the courtiers had shaved their heads and had their wedding scars burned. Moreover, these shaved-headed courtiers were all important officials of the imperial court. This made the ministers who had not had their heads shaved shocked each other.

The shaved-headed courtiers, headed by 'Chang Sun Wuji', looked at each other and smiled bitterly. However, when faced with questions from other colleagues, they only said righteously that today's Dharma meeting was for the country, for His Majesty, and for the sake of the people.

The people of Li were praying for blessings, so he ordained himself and made the scar to show his sincerity.

The other ministers who had shaved their heads responded in the same way.

Suddenly, there was a sound of praise all around, and the courtiers who had not had their heads shaved all raised their thumbs. Look at these adults, no wonder they are important officials in the court, thinking about the country and His Majesty all the time!

As soon as the palace door opened, all the ministers filed into the Hanyuan Hall. After the servants sang the promise, the Holy Emperor Li Shimin stepped out under the call of hundreds of civil and military officials.

As a result, as soon as he stepped onto the stage and before he could sit on the dragon chair, "Li Shimin" looked down and saw, "Hey guys, there are dozens of bald heads, it's like a dazzle in your eyes."

He couldn't laugh or cry, he pointed down and joked:

"My dear friends, have you come to resign from me because you have seen through the world of mortals?"

'Changsun Wuji' and 'Li Shimin' grew up together, and they were his uncle and brother, so they had the closest relationship. He stepped forward and said what he had said to the other courtiers before, with a look of serving the country and the people.

appearance.

In fact, they went out with their bald heads just to let the emperor see that we shaved our heads for you and your country, without even caring about our parents' virtues.

‘Li Shimin’ pointed at the nine ring scars on ‘Chang Sun Wuji’’s head in a funny way and asked:

"Then what's that on your head?"

‘Changsun Wuji’ replied seriously:

"This is a precept scar. I asked someone about it, and they told me that to receive the precepts in Buddhism, you need to burn the scar with incense to show your devotion to the Buddha!"

What he didn't know was that the scar ring actually originated in the Yuan Dynasty, and there was no such thing at all these days.

That fellow "Huang Shaohong" knows very little about Buddhism. He was misled by movies and TV, so when he ordained them yesterday, he went to the extra mile to burn the ordination scars for these courtiers.

After the whole thing was over, he started talking nonsense and explaining the function of ring scars to these people.

So 'Changsun Wuji' also took it seriously and told the original words of 'Huang Shaohong'.

‘Li Shimin’ didn’t know what to say after hearing this, so he waved his hand and said:

"Don't talk nonsense to me. I have read Buddhist scriptures these days. There is no such rule in the temple. Where does the saying about scars come from?"

These courtiers who had been burned with ring scars were dumbfounded at the same time. Is it really true? At this time, a bad premonition grew in their hearts.

‘Li Shimin’ asked again:

"Auxiliary machine, you just said that you would use Xinxiang to burn the scar, but I think if you use Xinxiang to burn it, the scar will be the size of a pea, but I think your scar is the size of a copper coin. It doesn't look like it was left by Xinxiang?

"

'Auxiliary machine' is the word for 'Changsun Wuji'. When 'Li Shimin' said this, he finally realized, yes, that young monk said to use Xinxiang, why did he use lamps and candles to burn his hands? He didn't know how.

He's a liar.

Now that things have come to this, ‘Changsun Wuji’ can only hold on:

"I heard that ring scars can prove my devotion to the Buddha, so I wanted to impress the Buddha and bless His Majesty. In my hurry, I didn't even wait for the incense letter, so I picked up the lamp and candle at hand and burned it myself!"

The courtiers who were burned with ring scars said in unison: "That's exactly it!"

‘Li Shimin’ resisted the urge to laugh, but also had to show his gratitude, and hurriedly dealt with the court meeting. After the court meeting, he suddenly found that one person was missing, and asked:

"Why didn't Junji go to court today?"

He asked about "Hou Junji". At this time, the battle against "Tuyuhun" had been completely won, and "Hou Junji" also returned to the court with "Li Jing"'s army.

The Holy Emperor asked, and immediately an official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs came out to report:

"Your Majesty, Lord Hou sent someone to ask for leave today, saying that Lord Hou accidentally cut off his left ear when he was getting tonsured at home, and he is currently recovering from his injuries at home!"

‘Puch’

The skinheads headed by 'Chang Sun Wuji' couldn't help it and even laughed. They all thought they were unlucky enough, but in the end there were even worse ones.

It is true that 'Hou Junji' had his left ear cut off during his ordination, mainly because 'Huang Shaohong' believed that special care should be taken for such acquaintances.

So he used his true energy to help others get ordained. When he got to 'Hou Junji', he pointed them as swords and used the Supreme Sword Gang to help them get ordained. As a result, if he was not careful, 'Master Hou' became a

Only one ear.

In addition, the ring scars on 'Hou Junji''s head are also different. Although they are all burned with incense candles, others' scars are as big as copper coins. His scars are as big as a pear. Nine big pear's burned his scalp.

, General Hou said that Yali Mountain is huge!

What else could "Li Shimin" say, so he took other courtiers, rode on a phoenix chariot and a dragon chariot, and drove to Huasheng Temple.

The royal driver came down from Longshou Plain and arrived at Huasheng Temple. Along the way, thousands of officials were wearing rings and garlands, and the flags of the Five Guards were lined up on both sides.

In short, the scene of the imperial commander's march was grand, and the people watching were separated on both sides by the Yulin army. They could not move around until the imperial knight passed by.

When the imperial chariot arrived at Huasheng Temple, the abbot Kongci led the monks of He Temple to greet him, and introduced the Emperor of Tang Dynasty inside to worship Buddha and burn incense.

When 'Li Shimin' saw the golden ball the size of a carriage wheel in front of the 'Mahatma Hall', he couldn't help but show surprise. 'Kong Ci' pointed to the inscriptions on it and explained with a smile on his face:

"This is the gold specially offered by the believers in Chang'an after they learned that they wanted to pray for the Holy Emperor, in order to comply with the principle that 'the scriptures should not be passed down lightly'!"

Since Changsun Wuji, I had doubts about the authenticity of the little monk yesterday after experiencing the scar. But now my doubts are gone. Listening to the four words "The Sutra is not passed down lightly", I look at the golden

The corners of their mouths twitched at the giant ball, and their teeth itched with hatred. They really didn't pass it lightly. It was so expensive.

Kong Ci saw that all the courtiers had strange expressions and that they had shaved their heads and had their heads permed. He didn't quite understand what had happened, so he didn't ask any more questions. He quickly led Li Shimin and the courtiers to sit on a Zen seat and offered him the blessing.

The latest fruits and various kinds of Tangsu are served, waiting for the auspicious time to come and the ceremony to begin.

Those who could come in and sit on the Zen throne with 'Li Shimin' were all important officials of the imperial court who had their heads shaved. Those who had not shaved their heads were not of sufficient status and were assigned to the outer courtyard.

At this time, the Yulin Army also sealed off the entire Huasheng Temple, and they had to wait until the Dharma Conference began before they could let the common believers in to listen to the scriptures.

But what they don't know is that they may not be able to wait any longer.

Because not long after the royal driver passed by, a handsome young monk wearing white monk robes appeared in the market with dozens of carts and shouted loudly:

"The young monk Bujie is the leading monk of Huasheng Temple. According to the abbot's decree, he specially sent a carriage to pick up the Buddhist believers who are going to the Water and Land Dharma Assembly. If there are any donors who are going to attend the Water and Land Dharma Assembly, please come to me!"

It had just arrived at Mao hour, which was around five o'clock in the morning. Those who got up and went out on the street at this time, except for the people who got up early to make a living, all went to Huasheng Temple to listen to the sutras.

Hearing that there was a carriage pick-up, everyone got on the bus one after another. Soon dozens of large vehicles were filled with people. The driver whipped his horse whip and everyone headed for Ximen City.

Many people shouted: "Wrong direction!"

‘Huang Shaohong’ put his hands together and looked solemn:

"The Water and Land Dharma Assembly, this first one is naturally by the water, set up on the bank of the Jing River!"

When everyone heard this, they suddenly understood and followed the carriage with peace of mind.

Many people who had heard the news and hurried over had not yet boarded the train, and the number of people gathered grew larger and larger, eventually numbering in the thousands.

'Huang Shaohong' waved his hand, and hundreds of vehicles drove up from the streets extending in all directions in Chang'an, pulling all the remaining people away and heading out of the city.

After the people on the street had emptied out, two disguised figures came over. It was Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng. They were wearing turbans and covering their faces, as if they were stealing landmines.

‘Yuan Tiangang’ asked ‘Huang Shaohong’ who was posing his poems:

"Erlang, where did you find so many carriages?"

‘Huang Shaohong’ coughed lightly:

"For today, I have booked two carriages and horses!"

‘Li Chunfeng’ interface asked:

"Then where did you get these Buddhist believers?"

‘Huang Shaohong’ said without changing his expression:
Chapter completed!
