Chapter 42 Xuanzang is invited

Early in the morning of the second day after returning to the palace, Li Zhi took the emperor's dictation to announce a long reward decree to the merchants who had just handed over the waist card to the palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Looking at Li Zhi's eyes, the businessman, who had just gotten up and was still a little sober, opened his mouth slightly and was stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses. After the holy decree was delivered, due to the crowd holding a large number of rewards behind her, Li Zhi just glanced at her meaningfully, and walked away with the small yellow door without saying anything, and the pile of eye-catching yellow and white things were piled up in the small hall of Changyin Garden, seducing everyone's inquiring eyes.

Within an hour, the palace was full of this inexplicable reward, and the words were spread more and more in the end, combined with the performance of the merchants at the Qujiang banquet, there were already rumors that the merchants were about to be crowned concubines.

This made the businessmen cry and laugh after hearing the news that Fu'er came back!

Li Shimin: What is this trying to do? Roasted her on this fire for no reason! Is it because she failed to let Li Mo sacrifice the eldest grandson queen with him?

Is his old man in a hurry? It's okay to use her to test how deep the water is in this harem? Although she, Si Le, did not enter the center of the palace fight, she could also see that Wei Guifei, Concubine Xu Xian, as well as those talented people and Zhaorong, which one was easy to mess with?

She is a little Si Le, maybe one day it will be extinguished if it is not pleasing to the eye, and there is not even a scum left!

The irritable merchant quickly finished a mouthful of food in his mouth, but his squinted eyes saw a figure flashing outside Changyin Garden, looking like a palace maid in Concubine Wei's palace, he couldn't help but tighten his heart, and hurriedly pulled Fu'er over.

"Fu'er, I'm staying in the house, if someone comes to look for me, you just say that I'm out of the palace, anyway, now I have a waist card from the emperor, I can go out at any time." The merchant attached to Fu'er's ear and told her, and he quickly hid in the back room.

Fu'er nodded, cleaned up the food on the table, and went out with the door.

The merchant hid in the house, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that Fu'er had sent away Wei Guifei's people.

What's going on! Wei Guifei came to summon her at this time, it must be that the drunkard did not mean to drink!

Never mind! Can't I hide if I can't be provoked? Anyway, the emperor gave the waist card, and he was not afraid of being found, only saying that he was out of the palace, and no one could say anything!

Thinking about it, there is no good way, the businessmen simply went out of the palace, at least to avoid this limelight, and then said, after a long time, those nobles saw that the emperor had no follow-up actions, and naturally they would cool down, it was better than facing those women who were afraid that the twists and turns in their hearts were more complicated than the nine bends and eighteen bends of the Yellow River.

Now that he had made up his mind, the merchant took a look at the vacancy, wore the most inconspicuous clothes, and did not go to the main gate Chengtian Gate, but went out from the Changle Gate of Taiji Palace next to the East Palace, and walked out of the imperial city by the nearest Yanxi Gate.

Standing on the street outside the gate of Yongchangfang, the merchant took a deep breath of fresh air, and then burst into a smile.

The people of Chang'an in April are happy! Although there is a death sacrifice for the eldest grandson queen at the beginning of the month, the ensuing Buddha bathing festival makes Chang'an people very excited and devoted.

Back then, because of the lingering illness of the eldest grandson queen, the current emperor Li Shimin did not rarely see the temple burning incense. Although the final result is that heaven and man are separated forever, this habit of worshipping Buddha remains. Later, Master Xuanzang went west to learn scriptures and returned, which alarmed the emperor to go out of the city to greet him personally, and under such an aura, people's belief in Buddhism has reached a height that is difficult for future generations to reach.

Li Shimin, who returned to Chang'an from the Mausoleum of Empress Changsun, rested for a night, and then drove to the Huguo Temple in Yongchangfang to listen to Master Xuanzang's lectures. Maybe it's because of the aging relationship, and I just mourned my departed beloved wife. Li Shimin reined in the edge of the past, and had a more quiet and peaceful bearing, and even Gao Yang, who had been grounded for many months, was released after a holy decree and followed his father to Huguo Temple to listen to the scriptures.

The merchants standing outside Yongchang Fang were completely attracted by everything they saw in front of them at this time. Originally, he came out of Yanxi Gate full of resentment, but he accidentally bumped into the grandest Buddha Bathing Festival ceremony in Huguo Temple.

When the merchants came out, it was already past noon, and the first few procedures of bathing the Buddha: going to the temple on the board, arranging to greet the Buddha, welcoming the Buddha statue, and taking a bath have all gone through, and they are now in the stage of giving a eulogy.

Yongchang Fang is full of black pressure is full of human heads, Huguo Temple inside and outside are full of good men and women, some can not squeeze into the inside actually knelt down at the door of the fang, the cars and horses also try to light their pace, lightly outside the door of the street quietly drove over, never dare to disturb the noise.

For a while, there was only one merchant still standing at the gate of this place, but fortunately, everyone knelt and bowed their heads, and no one noticed her maverick.

Looking from afar, at the main entrance of the Daxiong Treasure Hall of Huguo Temple, a golden body of Buddha statue was invited to the local area. In order to conform to the image of the Buddha at the time of his birth, this golden body was cast into the image of a child who had just fallen to the ground, pointing to the sky with one hand and the earth with the other, just like the appearance of the Buddha when he was born.

A monk in a big red robe was reciting the eulogy aloud, but it was too far away for the merchant to hear it clearly for a while, and he only felt that it was a bit of a taste.

As the monk's eulogy ended, the kneeling people also stood up and walked forward in a row, and the merchants also walked forward with the flow of people in curiosity.

In the later generations, there was no chance to see such a grand occasion, in that era of lack of faith, people were busy making money, how could anyone come to see the Buddha so devoutly?

"I didn't expect you to believe in the Buddha too?" A voice came from Shang Shang's side.

"Is that you?" The merchant looked at the man dressed in white beside him with some surprise.

If she remembers correctly, this person should be the Yu Wenjing she saved when she was in Luoyang a few years ago, a few years have passed, he has not changed much, he is still dressed in simple white, and the whole person is full of a suppressed edge.

After thinking about it, Shang Shang was a little amused: "Why can't I believe in Buddhism?" It's your ---- that makes people feel weird! ”

This person has a cold-blooded killing aura on his body, isn't it even stranger that he will believe in Buddhism?

Yu Wenjing was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the Chamber of Commerce to say it so unabashedly, but then he laughed again.

He knew his own business, and today he was just coming out of the East Palace and passing by Yongchangfang. I didn't want to see her here at a glance, so I couldn't help but come out and see her, but in fact, it had nothing to do with the Buddha.

When the merchant saw that he did not speak, he did not speak again. The two silently followed the flow of people all the way forward.

The intersection between her and Yu Wenjing was just the days when he was injured, and the two didn't say a few words, at the beginning he was injured and unconscious, and when he stayed well, he left again, and the two really didn't have a deep relationship.

Yu Wenjing walked slowly forward with the merchants, and in this quiet and quiet time, he felt at ease just looking at her back. I wish this could go on forever! Even if it's just looking at her back, at least he knows that she's by his side.

Shang Shang observed the movements of the people in front of her all the way, although she didn't know the scriptures that those people were reading, but she could still learn to bathe the Buddha with her hand! Following the person in front of him, he scooped a spoonful of water into the basin at the foot of the icon, carefully poured it on Jin's body, and softly sang the Heart Sutra in his mouth.

"When contemplating the bodhisattva of self-reliance, when he walks in the deep prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty, and he overcomes all suffering------

The soft voice came to Yu Wenjing's ears with the slight turn of the merchant, and he couldn't help but wonder a little, could the Buddhist scriptures also be sung?

"What are you singing?" Yu Wenjing asked in a low voice, he didn't believe in Buddhism, and he didn't know anything about Buddhist scriptures, but for some reason, when he heard Shang Shang singing, he actually felt a sense of peace and joy in his heart.

The merchant looked back at him and smiled, but did not answer.

The people in front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall are still silently carrying out the Buddha rituals, and the merchants and merchants have also moved to the front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall of Huguo Temple with the flow of people. But suddenly, she had a strange feeling, as if a voice was calling out to her. I just felt that she was the only one left in this world, facing the Bodhisattva who was looking at her with kind eyes in the big hall.

Shang Shang raised his feet like a demon, broke away from the crowd around the Buddha, and walked straight into the main hall, not even hearing Yu Wenjing's light call behind him, at this moment, only the Buddha with compassion in her eyes remained.

"Amitabha! Donor! Please stay! Just as the merchant was about to walk in front of the Buddha, a clear voice sounded in the ears of the merchant like a crisp bell chime.

"Merchant! What happened to you? Yu Wenjing, who was following behind Shang Shang, grabbed her at the right time. The appearance of the merchant just now is so strange! It made him panic when he had the feeling that she might leave him at any moment!

"Huh?" Shang Shang looked at Yu Wenjing, who was holding her arm and looking anxious, as if he had just woken up from a big dream.

"Female benefactor! The poor monk is polite! Seeing that the merchant came back to his senses, the owner of the Qinglang voice took two steps forward and sang a salute.

At this time, the merchant was surprised to find that two steps in front of her and Yu Wenjing, a young monk dressed in red was standing beside the golden body of Shakyamuni Buddha, with a long figure wearing a fiery red robe, which made the merchant also a little dazed.

Where is this monk? is clearly a beautiful young man, with a face like a crown of jade and that dusty temperament, it is enough to make all women crazy!

"Debate?" The merchant hesitated, where had he heard this name?

Looking at the monk in front of him, Shang Shang was confused. It is said that although she has lived in Chang'an for so long, she has never intersected with monks, so where did she hear this name?

"It's a poor monk, dare to ask the donor's surname Su?" The debate machine smiled slightly, looking at the woman in front of him, who was deep in thought.

Judging from the trance on her face when she entered the hall, he was almost certain that this person must be the destined person that the master asked him to wait for.

"How do you know?" Shang Shang came back from his hard thoughts and couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.

Yu Wenjing watched the conversation between the debate machine and the businessman silently, he didn't think it was just an accident for the debate machine's sudden conversation, but for a while, he couldn't think of how the debater could know the businessman.

Although he is young, he has made great contributions to the Buddhist scriptures brought back to Chang'an by Master Xuanzang, and is highly valued by Master Xuanzang.

"The poor monk has been waiting for the donor here for a long time, please follow the poor monk to the back meditation room, and the family teacher is waiting in the back meditation room." The debate machine smiled, and it was as dazzling as a butterfly spreading its wings. Seeing that the merchant also took a light breath of cold air.

"I don't know what the teacher is----?" The merchant was a little hesitant, she just came to see the excitement, but she didn't have the idea of converting to Buddhism!

"Master Xuanzang!"

This sentence was not uttered by the debate, but Yu Wenjing beside Shang Shang. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
