Chapter Nine Zen Monks Talk about Cause and Effect
Chapter 9 Zen Monk Talks about Cause and Effect
On the school martial arts field, everyone saw that the winner was decided. They were polite to each other and left.
King Wuyou, Prince Duan and others rode back to the main camp of the Qi army. The others were sitting in the commander's tent to rest. King Wuyou and Prince Duan went to the side tent first. In the side tent, there was actually Prince Duan.
When the two princes met, they each smiled.
It turned out that King Wuyou was worried that Prince Liu Chang of Shu was cheating, so when Prince Duan and himself came to Qiying, he asked Gu Yuetian to pretend to be Prince Duan and go with him to the school martial arts field to fight against Liu Chang. Although Prince Duan felt that King Wuyou was a little too much.
He was careful, but he knew it was for his own good. Prince Duan was naturally grateful for this friendship. So Gu Yuetian Youxi rubbed Prince Duan's voice and behavior before following King Wuyou to the school martial arts field.
Returning to the tent at this time, Gu Yuetian returned to his original appearance, and Prince Duan thanked him. King Wuyou asked Gu Yuetian to tell the details about Liu Chang. Gu Yuetian said: "This prince of Shu is no ordinary warrior.
, his kung fu is extremely domineering. If an ordinary person is hit by his fists and kicks, he will be easily injured internally. I tried a few of his moves, and they are very similar to the Qingcheng Mountain Kung Fu in the middle of Sichuan. The internal energy is deep and lingering."
When Prince Duan heard what Gu Yuetian said, he couldn't help but take a breath. He didn't expect that the prince of Shu was actually a master of the family. Although he had been taught by masters in Dali and had some skills, he also knew that with the disciples of Qingcheng Mountain,
In comparison, he was definitely inferior to others. In this competition, it seemed that Liu Chang had planned to kill himself. Fortunately, even if King Wuyou stopped him from going, he sent Gu Yuetian to fight on his behalf.
Prince Duan thought of this and bowed deeply to King Wuyou again. He said, "Brother Wang, Duan Kejian is grateful for your great kindness."
King Wuyou quickly reached out to help each other and said: "Prince Duan, why should you be so polite? We are brothers!"
With that said, King Wuyou gave a general description of the situation in the school martial arts field, and Gu Yuetian also talked about the process of the competition. Then King Wuyou accompanied Prince Duan out of the side tent and went to the commander's tent together.
When Yingjing, Dongfang Yin, Li Guogong, Dai Rongzhen and others saw Prince Duan changing into casual clothes, they all congratulated him again. Prince Duan also thanked him in return. King Wuyou sent an order to arrange a banquet, and everyone got drunk in the camp together before resting.
After handling the affairs of Dadu court and peace talks, the war in Shu was suspended. The troops and horses of various countries stopped attacking and returned to their respective stations to rest. King Wuyou and the envoys from various countries who came to Dadu also left Dadu and returned home.
.
King Wuyou went to say goodbye to the deposed emperor, and then returned to Lucheng with Ying'er and others. King Qi led the civil and military forces to greet King Wuyou, and the city of Lucheng was lively for a few days.
On this day, King Wuyou was reading in his palace. A guard came outside to report that the old princess was calling the young prince, and the young princess came over. King Wuyou took Yinger to Prince Ping's Mansion. As soon as he entered the hall, he found Jingming
The Zen master was sitting in the main seat. King Ping and Princess Ping were accompanying him. King Wuyou and Ying'er also hurriedly saluted their parents and the Zen master. After getting their parents' permission, they sat aside together.
Zen Master Jingming looked at King Wuyou and Ying'er and said, "The young prince and Miss Ying'er got married and the poor monk is traveling around. I can't come to congratulate you. I hope you'll forgive me."
King Wuyou quickly clasped his hands and said: "Master, you are so polite. We were supposed to go to You'an Temple to visit the Zen master in person, but we had no time to get away and arranged for someone to go. The report said that the master has gone away, and I feel regretful. Now that the master is here,
It's too late for both of us to rejoice!"
Zen Master Jingming looked at King Wuyou and then at Ying'er. He reached out and did some calculations. He turned to Princess Ping and said, "Old Princess, please accompany Ying'er to the inner room to rest first. I will talk to the prince and his son about something!"
After hearing this, Princess Ping stood up and signaled to Yinger, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to the inner room.
Zen Master Jingming brought only himself, King Ping and King Wuyou, to the room. He pondered for a moment and asked, "My dear prince, you and Ying'er have been married for ** months, right?"
King Wuyou quickly replied: "It's been eight months!"
Zen Master Jingming nodded and said: "Prince Ping and I are old friends, and I have a close relationship with the young prince, so it is inevitable for me to get involved in these mortal world."
After listening to what Zen Master Jingming said, King Ping and King Wuyou joined hands in thanks.
Zen Master Jingming continued: "The young prince and Ying'er have consummated their marriage, right?"
King Wuyou smiled, nodded and said yes.
Zen Master Jingming also smiled and said: "But Ying'er should still not be pregnant!"
King Wuyou nodded and said, "Yes."
Zen Master Jingming looked at King Wuyou and said, "Little prince, this poor monk has something to say. I wonder if you can listen to it?"
King Wuyou was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "Master, just say it, I am respectfully listening to your teachings!"
Zen Master Jingming nodded, looked at Prince Ping again, and said: "Prince Ping, did he remember that when the young prince was born, the poor monk had seen him and found that the young prince was born with murderous intent and a violent personality. So he was named Wuyou.
Later, at Lingyan Temple, he met the wife of the former scholar Xue who took Ying'er to offer incense. Ying'er cried day and night, but when she saw the young prince, her tears turned into laughter.
, the two couldn't be separated after seeing each other. So I also fell in love with Ying'er, they are a match made in heaven."
King Ping listened and nodded and said: "Master, what I have learned is that Qi Si's child and Ying'er are also destined to be married. Qi Si was born violent. When he was three or two years old, no one could restrain him except his mother and me.
Ri was very naughty. No children of average size dared to play with him, and most of them were beaten black and blue. Only when he saw Ying'er, he became docile."
Zen Master Jingming looked at King Wuyou and continued what King Ping said: "This is God's will. God has the virtue of good life, and it is precisely for Ying'er to calm down the murderous spirit in the young prince. But in troubled times and conflicts between countries, the young prince
In this position, it is inevitable to fight and kill. I am compassionate, and I also want to save the young prince. But the young prince has a big heart. In this troubled world, the only way to stop killing is to kill, and to stop war with war. Wait.
Only when the world is unified can there be peace and prosperity, which is the welfare of the people. But the crime of killing must be shouldered by the young prince."
After hearing this, King Wuyou's face darkened and he sighed softly.
Prince Ping looked at his son and shook his head gently.
Zen Master Jingming looked at it and said, "Young prince, there is no need to be depressed. I came here to talk to you about something." After hearing this, King Wuyou raised his head and looked at Zen Master Jingming and asked, "Master, I don't know.
What's going on?"
Zen Master Jingming smiled and said: "Master Jinghui of Tanqing'an in Wutai Mountain will accept a disciple recently. I told her that I would like to take Yinger to become a lay disciple of Master Jinghui."
When King Wuyou heard this, his expression changed, and then he laughed and said, "Master, are you kidding? You want to send Ying'er to become a monk? What should I do?"
King Ping frowned and glanced at King Wuyou, and said, "Listen to the master!"
King Wuyou quickly lowered his head and folded his hands to apologize to Zen Master Jingming. Zen Master Jingming also didn’t take it seriously and waved his hand and said, “Young Master, you are thinking too much! I just want Ying’er to go to Master Jinghui’s place to register her name.
It is also good for the Master to enlighten her and practice some Buddhist Dharma. Doing more practice by the Master's side and condensing her mind will also reduce some of the murderous sins of the young prince."
When King Wuyou heard this, he understood the general idea and asked softly: "How long will Ying'er stay there?!"
After hearing this, Zen Master Jingming laughed and said, "It may take three to five years at most, or one or two years at least. It all depends on the fate of Ying'er and the young prince!"
King Wuyou looked at Zen Master Jingming and then at King Ping, his brows furrowed and his face full of reluctance. King Ping looked at it and said to King Wuyou: "It doesn't matter what the master said. During this period of time, you also have to be with me."
You follow Uncle Wang to prepare things for the Kingdom of Shu, and your territory has not dealt with official business for a long time. Busy with these things, a year and a half has passed. Ying'er may be back by then, you two
We can still be together."
Seeing what his father said, King Wuyou no longer argued, but just lowered his head and said nothing.
Prince Ping smiled at Zen Master Jingming and said, "Master is worried about the child's affairs. It's just that Ying'er is going to Mount Wutai. She is used to being a pampered girl in my house. If she goes to practice with Master alone, I will
I'm afraid she won't be able to bear the pain; I'm afraid my princess won't be able to let it go! She treats Yinger like a daughter."
Zen Master Jingming nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about Prince Ping. When Ying'er goes to Tanqing Temple, she can naturally bring two maids with her to serve her. She is here mainly to cultivate her mind, not to practice hard physical practice."
"Oh, that's better." King Ping said, looking at King Wuyou. King Wuyou raised his head when King Ping and Zen Master Jingming said this. He knew in his heart that King Ping's question was just to tell him.
.
After Princess Ping heard what Zen Master Jingming said, the elder was unhappy and said with a sullen face: "Ying'er and Si'er have just got married. Besides, there are three ways to be unfilial, the worst is not having children. They don't have children yet, what are you doing?
?My family is a single generation, and I want Yinger to give me a grandson! Besides, I watched Yinger grow up. When did she leave me for so long, and go to those temples? My family doesn’t have to suffer that much.
Ying'er's life? I'm not willing to give it up!"
King Ping just smacked his lips and stopped talking. King Wuyou looked at Princess Ping with some joy and laughed. Zen Master Jingming wrote a few words and handed it to Princess Ping. Princess Ping held it in her hand.
Take a look, and then look at Zen Master Jingming with eyes full of surprise. Seeing Zen Master nodding his head repeatedly, he said nothing more.
Princess Ping pulled Yinger over, looked at her and said, "My dear Yinger, my mother can't bear to leave you, but you are going. I will ask the ** sisters to accompany you, and they will take good care of you."
Where you are, if you get used to it, stay there for a while. If you don't, just come back. Mother, I'll be waiting for you at home. If you miss me, just write me a letter and I'll go see you right away!"
After saying that, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hugged each other and started crying. King Ping had no choice but to persuade him. King Wuyou always felt reluctant to give up and frowned.
Zen Master Jingming stayed in Prince Ping's Mansion for half a day, then wrote a letter to King Wuyou, then left and continued to travel around the world.
Princess Ping was busy preparing the luggage for the baby in the palace, and told her to take good care of the young princess when she went there. If there was any inconvenience, she would come back immediately! Xu Nuo also volunteered to take care of Ying'er, which was a big surprise to Princess Ping.
