"Master Xuanzang, His Royal Highness the Prince ordered me to take your master and apprentice to Daxingshan Temple to settle down, and you will follow us to Daxingshan Temple. "Flash dance" entered Chang'an, Fang Xuanling said.

"Donor, please wait a moment, the poor monk has just come back and wants to go to see the prince first!" Xuanzang said that he was anxious to get the support of the imperial court and allow him to spread Buddhism, and he did not want to delay for a moment.

"However, these scriptures, relics, Buddha statues, and your disciples ......," Fang Xuanling said.

Fang Xuanling meant that he couldn't bring them with him, which was not polite.

"Let them go to Daxingshan Temple first, and ask the donor to ask someone to take them to Daxingshan Temple, and the poor monk will go with the donor to meet the prince." Xuanzang said.

"That's fine!" Fang Xuanling said with a smile, turned back to the person behind him and ordered: "Take these mages to live in Daxingshan Temple." ”

"No!" The man bowed his hand, came to the monks, and said, "Masters, please come with me." ”

"You guys go to Daxingshan Temple first! I will follow Sikong into the palace to meet the prince! Xuanzang instructed his disciples.

"Yes! Master! The disciples clasped their hands together and followed Fang Xuanling's men to Daxingshan Temple.

"Mage, let's go! This is the palace! Fang Xuanling said and made a gesture of please.

"Please!" Xuanzang clasped his hands together, walked side by side with Fang Xuanling, and entered the palace to meet the prince of the prison country. Flash Dance

"Lang Jun! Master Xuanzang, who went to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, asked to meet Lang Jun! "In the Guangtian Hall of the East Palace, an attendant came to report.

"Why didn't he go to Daxingshan Temple to settle down, but he came to meet the widow and let him in." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" The chamberlain was ordered to withdraw.

Xuanzang walked in under the leadership of the chamberlain.

"Shamen Xuanzang salutes His Royal Highness the Prince!" Xuanzang saluted Li Chengqian, who was sitting on the main seat.

"Mages don't have to be polite! Throne! Li Chengqian said, let someone get a chair for Xuanzang.

Xuanzang looked up and down the chair in front of him, very curious, he had never seen such a strange thing.

The chamberlain on the side was afraid that Xuanzang would make a fool of himself and lose his honor in front of the prince, so he explained the novelty of the chair to Xuanzang.

Xuanzang is very grateful to the inner servant, otherwise he would have made a fool of himself in this hall.

But then again, when did Datang have such a thing as a chair? How he hadn't seen it before.

Xuanzang didn't know that the chair had not appeared for a long time, only about two years, and he was still worshipping Buddha and seeking scriptures in the Western Regions at that time.

"Let His Highness see and laugh!" Xuanzang clasped his hands together.

"This chair has only appeared for a few years, and it's normal for the mage not to know it. 35xs" Li Chenggan said.

After Xuanzang was done, Li Chengqian continued: "The master has worked hard all the way to the west, why didn't he report it for permission at the beginning? ”

At the beginning of Zhenguan, Li Er issued a ban, prohibiting monks from leaving the Tang Dynasty and traveling west to seek the Dharma, which was the time when Li Er rejected Buddhism the most.

Xuanzang was not allowed to go to the table three times, so he had to secretly go to the Western Regions in the second year of Zhenguan to seek the true scriptures.

Xuanzang was actually smuggled out of the country, but there was no such thing as a passport in the countries at that time, otherwise, Xuanzang, a smuggler, was afraid that he would be sent back.

"Don't hide it from Your Highness! At the beginning, the poor monk also went to the table three times to ask the imperial court to allow the poor monk to go to the west to seek the true scriptures. ”

"However, the poor monk was soft-spoken, and there was no way, so he asked for permission to go west." Xuanzang said.

Li Chengqian just asked casually, is it really as Xuanzang said, these are not important, this is just the opening sentence of chatting with Xuanzang.

"The mage went to the west to learn scriptures, I don't know how far the mage has gone, and what country he has been to?" Li Chengqian asked.

"This time, the poor monks traveled more than 50,000 miles to the west, and there were Buddhist temples along the way. Xuanzang replied.

"In this case, presumably the mage should know the customs of these countries, the mountains and rivers, and the products."

"I just don't know what is the difference between these regions and my Datang?" Li Chengqian asked.

He can also take this opportunity to have a good understanding of the situation in the countries of the Western Regions, especially the situation on the side of Asan, India.

Maybe he will ascend to the throne in the future, and he will be able to come in handy.

"The customs of the Western Regions are indeed different from our Central Plains, and when the poor monks first saw them, they were not very used to it, but after a long time, they got used to it!" Xuanzang didn't know Li Chengqian's little Jiujiu, and thought that the prince was just curious, so he said this casually.

"This time the master obtained Mahayana Buddhism from Tianzhu, I don't know what the customs are in Tianzhu, there are differences between eating and eating and my Central Plains, I heard that Tianzhu girls are all talented, I don't know if this is the case?" Li Chengqian said.

"Whether the Tianzhu girl is as His Highness said, this is not easy to say to the poor monk, the poor monk is here to seek the law, and he doesn't pay much attention to the exotic woman, I'm afraid he can't answer His Highness's question."

"As for Tianzhu's diet, Tianzhu people like to use their right hands to grab food to eat, which is naturally different from the Central Plains." Xuanzang said.

He went to Tianzhu in the Western Regions this time for the Buddhist classics, and he stayed in the temple on weekdays, not to visit the mountains and rivers, let alone a pink skeleton like a woman.

He only has Buddha in his heart, how can he have any woman in his eyes?

This is simply an insult to the Buddha!

"I never thought that Tianzhu would be so different from the customs of my Central Plains, okay! Let's not talk about that! ”

"Since the mage has some knowledge of the customs, products, mountains and rivers of the countries in the Western Regions, I wonder if he can record it?" Li Chengqian asked.

"The poor monk went to Tianzhu to seek scriptures, and he never recorded what he saw and heard along the way, but these were all recorded in the poor monk's mind, and the poor monk could write him down." Xuanzang said.

"That's really good, the mage might as well write down the situation of the countries in the Western Regions that you passed through along the way, and write a book, the name of which is "The Legend of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty"."

"With this "Tang Western Regions", this will be conducive to the exchange and study between our Tang Dynasty and the countries of the Western Regions in the future, and open up the Silk Road to further places."

"Master, you might as well write this "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" first, and it's not too late to put other things aside for the time being." Li Chengqian said.

With this pair of Tang Western Regions countries in mind, let alone any cultural exchanges, even if you send troops to defeat these countries, it is not a problem.

After listening to Li Chengqian's words, Xuanzang did not immediately agree to him, although Xuanzang also wanted to write this "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty".

But in his heart, translating Buddhist classics is the top priority in his life, and as for this "Tang Dynasty Western Regions", at most, he can write it in his spare time.

Now he wants to put down translating Buddhism and write this Tang Dynasty Western Regions Chronicle first, this thing of putting the cart before the horse, Xuanzang is not happy.
