0271 Master, the girl didn't pay for the game halfway
Manjushri Bodhisattva simply didn’t want to stay for a second.
This Li Shimin is so cool!
When you talk to him, he doesn't understand him at all!
The best way to keep yourself from getting angry is to remain silent.
The two Bodhisattvas, Manjushri and Samantabhadra, looked at each other and turned into a stream of light and flew away.
Instead of being angry down below, it is better to fly up to the clouds and secretly monitor Li Shimin's behavior.
Li Shimin and Bai Long drank for a while.
Bailong stood up, twisted a cloud under his feet, and flew up on the cloud.
"O people, you drank the royal wine of heaven and gained another four hundred years of life. Remember, governing the country with benevolence and virtue is also your cultivation method. It's getting late. It's time for me to return to heaven. Tomorrow there will be a water and land ceremony.
Brother will watch from the sky and finish it seriously."
Li Shimin burst into tears, knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Brother Long, I remember it!"
In a blink of an eye, the white dragon turned into a rainbow of light and disappeared into the sky.
According to the plan for the journey to the west, the water and land ceremony will be held in three days.
However, the useless part of Liu Quan sending pumpkins to the underworld and reviving his soul was canceled by Manjushri Bodhisattva.
Time is running slow, so we have to catch up from here.
By doing this, we are three days ahead of schedule, so we won't be in a hurry.
Li Shimin returned to the palace and summoned the civil and military officials that night to enter the court for discussion.
The Tang Dynasty was different from later dynasties.
The emperor is not a man of one word, and any decision must be made with the approval of all ministers.
All the ministers, who had not sobered up yet, came to the court meeting hall and kowtowed together.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
"Everyone loves you!"
It was almost late at night, and in line with the principle of not disturbing the ministers, Li Shimin stood up and directly stated his intention.
Several ministers walked out of the crowd and kowtowed.
They also had this intention, but before Li Shimin did not believe in Buddhism, they did not dare to say it.
Buddhism has emerged in many dynasties, teaching good things and curing evil, and secretly helping the country and persuading people to do good. It should not be ignored.
However, there are also several ministers who have the same understanding of Buddhism as Li Shimin.
According to Confucianism and Taoism, etiquette means loyalty to the emperor, serving the country, and being filial to parents.
But in Buddhism, one becomes a monk without one's relatives, so one lives alone and does not recognize any relatives.
How can we be a human being without a king and a father?
The court hall was instantly divided into two factions.
One group advocates inviting mages to save those who died in the war.
One group thinks it is bluff.
If any ghost invades the Tang Dynasty, Taoist priests must be invited down the mountain to drive them away.
The civil and military officials, under the influence of wine, had a very heated discussion.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It’s like a fight is about to begin!
If the opinion is 50/50 split, Your Majesty can make a direct conclusion.
Li Shimin finally decided to ask a mage.
After all, it was a matter assigned by the Spirit King.
In the future, if you become an immortal through cultivation, you will have to work under Bai Long.
Besides, Bai Long gave him five hundred years of life, which can be said to be as deep as the ocean.
Even if Bailong asked him to eat shit, he would still eat it with a smile!
Li Shimin waved his hand, and the hall fell silent for a moment.
Li Shimin stood up and said: "I don't understand anything about Buddha. I just know that the God of Protection is inspecting the Spiritual King..."
"His Majesty!"
Speaking of this, Prime Minister Wei Zheng gave Li Shimin a look.
Only then did Li Shimin remember that the secret must not be revealed.
If you have seen gods, don't talk nonsense.
Li Shimin changed his words and turned to look at Wei Zheng.
"Prime Minister Wei, I must hold a water and land ceremony. I have been on the battlefield for more than ten years and have killed too many people. You can go and find Master Xuanzang from Zhenguo Temple to take care of this matter."
"I accept the decree!"
Arranging for Wei Zheng to do it instead of Xiao Yu and three ministers in the Journey to the West plan also saved a lot of dialogue.
Wei Zheng's weight in this court is not low.
Moreover, Wei Zheng knew how to read the sky and knew what to do better than Li Shimin.
Li Shimin passed the decree that night and established the law.
From today on, anyone who slanders Buddhism will have their arms cut off!
All civil and military officials, whether they advocated the introduction of Buddhism or not, all showed dissatisfaction in their eyes.
It is really inappropriate to ask that perverted monk to preach the Dharma!
oops!
However, the emperor had already made up his mind and they could say no more.
Wei Zheng had already seen through the sky and vaguely calculated the land and water ceremony.
Twelve hundred monks had already gathered in various state capitals.
He ordered all the prefectures in Chang'an to send those monks to Chang'an City overnight.
Late at night, the sky is pitch black.
Just as the cock crows, there are 1,200 monks standing outside the palace.
Among them, there are many eminent monks.
There are also some bald men with no hair who pretend to be monks.
Wei Zheng also ordered the Royal Guards to build a three-story venue outside the palace overnight.
at the same time.
Chen Xuanzang and several generals came out of the brothel cursing.
After a while, several people came to the Duke of Lu, Cheng Yaojin.
Chen Xuanzang looked confused.
Why did these generals look for him from the brothel?
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The general said coldly: "Yin monk, the person in front of you is the Duke of Lu, why don't you kneel down?"
Duke of Lu, Cheng Yaojin?
Chen Xuanzang rolled his eyes at the general, put his palms on his chest, and said: "You young general, talk to the poor monk carefully. Otherwise, the poor monk will save you with one punch, and your mother will send the white-haired one to the black-haired one!"
Canglanglang!
The general showed no anger, waved his hand and drew his sword.
"Wait! Back off!"
Cheng Yaojin raised his hand and stopped the general's movement.
He stood up, came to Chen Xuanzang with a smile, and said politely: "Master, Your Majesty has a decree, please come to the altar tomorrow to teach the Dharma for seventy-seven forty-nine days."
Seventy-seven forty-nine days?
Then I don’t want to hold it in for forty-nine days?
Chen Xuanzang shook his head and said: "I won't go!"
"no……"
Cheng Yaojin was immediately stunned.
Even the three great Bodhisattvas monitoring the situation in mid-air almost dropped their jaws.
Chen Xuanzang, what are you talking about?
For thousands of years, the emperor invited monks to teach him the Dharma.
You can not only promote Buddhism, but also become a famous monk, why not?
However, this is the moment.
The brothel woman waved her handkerchief and quickly chased her out, saying loudly: "Master, the girl is halfway through playing and you haven't paid her yet!"
Chen Xuanzang touched his pocket and said awkwardly: "Ah! Female Bodhisattva, I dropped my silver ingot in the room, please take a look!"
snort!
That woman is the old mother of this brothel. Even if she found the money, how could she admit it?
The woman shook her handkerchief and rolled her eyes: "Master, are you going to default? This is a small business and we don't owe credit! According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, money must be paid for consumption! If you act rogue, I will ask the Duke of Lu
I’ve made the decision and I’m going to hit you!”
"No, I'm not being a rogue, the silver ingot fell inside!"
Chen Xuanzang did bring money.
Cheng Yaojin shook his head helplessly and waved his hand.
The personal general who was following him took out a silver ingot and gave it to the brothel mother.
"Go back quickly, I'll give you the money!"
snort!
The old mother took the money, turned around and showed off her coquettishness, and walked back to the brothel.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yaojin suddenly came up with an idea.
"Master Xuanzang, look at these brothel girls. With money, you are like a master. Without money, you are nothing."
"Your Majesty will hold the Water and Land Dharma Ceremony. If you recite the Seven Seven Forty-nine Days of Dharma, you will get more wealth than you can spend in your lifetime. Are you going to be a master here forever?"
"In other words, how difficult is it to marry a wife and take concubines?"
