Chapter 22: Mahayana Sutras

Li Shimin didn't see joy and sorrow on his face, and he didn't respond to the second prince Li Yangyang, but said to the ministers: "The winner of the Qixi Poetry Club this time is Master Sanzang, what objections do you have?" ”

"It should be Master Sanzang. The pen www.biquge.info "Li Xun was the first to stand up in support, and then the other eight Hanlin Bachelor examiners nodded in agreement. In their eyes, Jiang Chen is a well-deserved champion of this Qixi Poetry Festival, and he can surprise them again and again.

Not to mention that Jiang Chen's last murderous poem resonated with the dragon veins of the palace and drove away the monsters. It stands to reason that this championship deserves to be so.

Not only Li Xun and others, half of the people in the hall had no objections, some people remained silent, and some people were observing Li Yangyang's actions.

The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth arched slightly, he understood that this Li Sunshine was not simple. I can't figure out where Li Sunshine got the confidence to dare to openly confront his father?

Jiang Chen didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the dynasty, but he found that he was involved, and all he could do now was to wait and see.

"I hope Li Sunshine can get acquainted." Jiang Chen glanced at Li Sunshine next to him and thought secretly.

At the moment when Jiang Chen cast his gaze, Li Sunshine seemed to be aware of it, and immediately glanced at Jiang Chen, still with a gentle smile on his face, but there was a faint flash of murderous intent in his eyes, which was not concealed at all.

Li Yangyang's gaze only stayed on Jiang Chen for a few moments, and then shifted his gaze to Li Shimin: "Father, the emperor, and the sons also agree that Master Sanzang will be the champion of this Qixi Poetry Society. ”

As soon as the words fell, those who had not expressed their position before agreed.

Li Shimin was not surprised, and in the face of his son, it seemed to have become a habit: "Sunshine, do you want to put the "Mahayana Sutra" in the martial arts meeting? ”

"Father, originally the master of Erchen was going to reward the "Mahayana Sutra" to the champion of the Qixi Poetry Society, and not long ago it was transmitted to Erchen, and it was temporarily changed and rewarded to the champion of martial arts." Li Sunshine shook his head and sighed, looking like he couldn't help it.

"Since the master said that it should be placed on martial arts, then it should be placed on martial arts." Li Shimin's eyes gradually became cold, and he swept towards Li Yangyang: "I hope the master will not break his promise again, as for whether I establish the crown prince or not, it will not be your turn Li Yangyang, do you really think I don't know what you have done?" For the sake of the master, I will spare you once this time. ”

Li Shimin's sudden attack made Li Sunshine stunned, thinking that he was under his control.

Some of the people who stood in the wrong line before were all shocked, and they also thought that the emperor would follow the second prince, and whoever wanted to change his face would change his face.

Except for Jiang Chen, who felt inexplicable, the other civil and military officials in the hall were all surprised.

Jiang Chen has now become an outsider, listening to the conversation between Li Shimin and Li Yangyang, he can guess that Li Yangyang's master is not simple, and what "Mahayana Sutra" is very important to Li Shimin.

However...... "Mahayana Sutras" seems a little familiar?

Jiang Chen's brows furrowed slightly, and he suddenly remembered that there was a "Hinayana Sutra" in the Huasheng Temple, and the Tang monk had studied the "Hinayana Sutra" before, which made him study the Buddhist classics quite deeply and became a senior monk.

At the same time, Jiang Chen also remembered that in "Journey to the West", Tang Seng held a Buddhist exchange meeting in Huasheng Temple, and talked about Buddhist scriptures with many senior monks in the Tang Dynasty.

Jiang Chen's current study of Buddhist scriptures is limited to the Hinayana Sutras, which is not enough to hold large-scale Dharma exchange meetings.

"Mahayana sutras?" Jiang Chen shook his head, what should have belonged to him was stirred up by Li Yangyang like this, and he had to participate in the martial arts meeting.

In fact, when the system update was just maintained, he thought that the system was still under maintenance anyway, and it shouldn't be okay not to participate in the martial arts meeting, after all, the system couldn't be opened.

Now it seems that the martial arts championship is still his goal.

"Father, the ministers there will retire first." At this time, Li Sunshine left angrily, and before leaving, he didn't forget to take a deep look at Jiang Chen, the meaning was very clear, and he would see.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but be speechless, this Li Sunshine should have hated him even more.

"Since Zhong Aiqing has no objection, the winner of this year's Qixi Poetry Club is Master Sanzang! Reward 10,000 taels of gold, award 1,000 acres of mansions, and give beautiful women ......"

"No, no."

The interrupter was none other than Jiang Chen, he listened for a long time, but he didn't hear anything related to Li Shiyue, this was related to the agreement between him and Li Shiyue.

"Oh? What is the problem with Master Sanzang? Li Shimin looked surprised.

"The poor monks are not interested in these rewards, and it is better to exchange these rewards for food for the common people who have suffered from natural and man-made disasters." Jiang Chen didn't raise the heart of the Holy Mother, but these rewards didn't have much effect on him, and they all embarked on the journey to the west immediately, which was a complete waste.

"Good! Good! Good! Li Shimin shouted three good words in a row, and there was a smile on his face: "Pass on my password, according to what Master Sanzang said, exchange these rewards for food, and send them to the victims everywhere in Datang from now on." ”

"The minister is hereby decreed."

A middle-aged Wenchen hurriedly stood up.

"Master Sanzang deserves to be a high monk."

"Alas, although the people of Datang live and work in peace and contentment, there are only a few states near Chang'an, and the people of several states have experienced various natural disasters."

"Master Sanzang has this courage, and those of us who are officials are ashamed of ourselves."

Jiang Chen's unintentional actions made many Wenchen feel awe of him, and at the same time, they were deeply touched.

"Your Majesty, the poor monk has a request." Jiang Chen didn't have the heart to listen to what everyone was saying about him.

"What?"

"I ask the emperor to cancel the reward of recruiting horses for Princess Li Shiyue." Jiang Chen finally couldn't bear it, he thought that the champion of the Qixi Poetry Club could attract Li Shimin's attention, even if it was to introduce Li Shiyue and the like, but he thought too much.

In this regard, Li Shimin immediately shook his head: "My words represent the entire Tang Dynasty, and the news has been released, how do you let Gaochang, Qiuzi, Tuyuhun and Goguryeo think of them?" ”

Jiang Chen couldn't help laughing: "Your Majesty, our Tang Dynasty is the real power, those barbarians are just barbarians after all, no matter how you look at it, you can't do anything." ”

Who knows that Li Shimin smiled and nodded and said: "What a great Tang Dynasty, in this case, why doesn't Master Sanzang participate in the martial arts, and it is not easy to provoke those monks who have seen and seen the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Good! Poor monks participate! ”

Jiang Chen suddenly realized that he had been tricked by Li Shimin, first used the "Mahayana Sutra" to arouse his interest in the martial arts meeting, and then deliberately did not mention Li Shiyue, and now he said to the civil and military officials to participate, or in front of the emperor, then he must participate.

Jiang Chen thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt that Li Shimin was really not simple, except for the system task Li Shimin didn't know, everything else was under Li Shimin's control!

At the same time, Jiang Chen was also puzzled, on what basis did Li Shimin determine his strength to be able to participate in the martial arts meeting? And he's very confident in him, confident that he can win the championship.

"At dusk, please ask Master Sanzang to go to the Martial Pavilion for this martial arts meeting."

Li Shimin directly finalized it, and did not allow the ministers to react, and then invited Jiang Chen to participate in the banquet, but he politely refused, so Jiang Chen left here.
