At this time, Master Xuanzang led the monks of Daci'en Temple, along with Wang Xuance, Zhou Zeng, Chen Maocai and others who were already wearing brand-new clothes, to welcome a major event in the history of Tang Dynasty rites and Buddhas.

After this grand guard of honor Luan drove to the mountain gate of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, with the jade chariot stopped, only to hear a eunuch open his mouth and sing: "Your Majesty is coming to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple." As soon as he finished speaking, a small yellow door was brought with a cushion wrapped in bright yellow silk. After everything was ready to stop, I saw Li Zhi casually open the thin wing curtain of the jade chariot and step on the jade chariot; Then he turned around again, stretched out his big white hand, personally supported Wu Meiniang, who was preparing to come down, and carefully cared for her.

After the two of them counted all the jade chariots, but seeing that the people who were already waiting here, under the leadership of Master Xuanzang, they hurriedly bowed down and knelt down, and shouted "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live".

After the ceremony was completed, with Li Zhi's happy sentence: "Zhongqing is flat." All the ministers stood up and looked at the actual supreme ruler of the empire with this joy on their faces.

But seeing this Master Xuanzang, he stepped forward, walked to a place five steps away from this Li Zhi and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, everything in this Great Mercy and Grace Temple has been prepared to stop, please enter the mountain gate in person."

So this Li Zhi personally held the hand of Mei Niang, and under the guidance of Master Xuanzang, he paced this square step and crossed the mountain gate of the Great Ci'en Temple. Come to this Mahavira Treasure Hall, personally touch the three incense sticks, and after respectfully worshipping the Buddha, I salute the three incense sticks.

At this time, Wu Zhaoyi's heart was not only excited, but also admired. In the face of such a grand favor, she also understood what Li Zhi meant: it seems that she really treats herself as a queen; Although there has been the pain of losing a daughter these days, with the passage of time, it has gradually faded all this, and after personally paying homage to the Buddha's tooth relic, there is a lot of peace in my heart.

I still remember that when I was a monk in Ganye Temple, I sincerely prayed in front of the Buddha, praying that the Buddha could bless me to be able to return to this palace and stay with Li Zhi. But since entering this palace, I have found that this palace is also deceitful, and you fight for me. In the face of being favored by Li Zhi alone, Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu are also complicit and often harm themselves.

originally wanted to treat the two of them well and get along in harmony, but unfortunately, as things developed one by one, it also made him see the battle in the harem, and it was also your life and death, so for the sake of power, for the position of the queen, he was ruthless, and there was this matter of a stable princess. At this moment, looking at and looking at such a grand scene and style, this Wu Meiniang gradually had a different idea. So I decided to make a great wish in front of this Buddha again.

After Li Zhi finished saluting incense, he saw him smile at her. So, this Mei Niang immediately took it, and the three sticks of fragrance handed over by the maid were carefully lit on the oil lamp. I respectfully made such a grand wish to the Buddha: I pray that the Buddha can bless the disciple to become the lord of the six palaces and ascend to the throne of the queen.

After the Mei Niang prayed sincerely, she respectfully inserted the three incense sticks into the gilded incense burner above the Buddha case. Then he knelt on the bright yellow futon in front of the Buddha and performed this kneeling ceremony.

At this time, Li Zhi was also quietly on the side, looking at Mei Niang's generous and decent, pious actions, and couldn't help but feel a lot of joy in his heart. From this point of view, this Mei Niang is not only no worse than the queen in the slightest, but has a lot more dignified and virtuous attitude, and is more like this mother's world.

After Wu Meiniang finished saluting, Li Zhi took her hand again, and under the guidance of Master Xuanzang, walked around the solemn inner hall corridor of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and slowly walked in such a circle, after saluting the spirit of the Buddha and the eldest grandson Empress in the sky. But listening to this Master Xuanzang said kindly to the two of them: "Your Majesty, Zhaoyi, this Buddha worship has been completed, please move to the west courtyard of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple to hold an unveiling ceremony for our Big Wild Goose Pagoda." ”

Hearing this, I saw that after Li Zhi smiled slightly at Master Xuanzang, he immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Then please ask Master to lead the way in front." At this time, Mei Niang also gave Master Xuanzang a salute of putting her hands together, and then nodded at the Master and smiled slightly. So Master Xuanzang led them to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the western courtyard.

In this section of the journey to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Li Zhi is still holding the hand of Mei Niang, and he seems to be so stable and honored. Of course, this scene also made the ministers who accompanied the Buddha to talk a lot. The root of the discussion is: This is the etiquette that only the queen should have, and this Wu Meiniang is only one or two Zhaoyi, which is already a serious impropriety. That being said, their assertion is only based on the fact that the queen is still the queen.

But in the eyes of some clear-eyed ministers with flexible brains, such a big pomp and circumstance, this scene of loving each other and respecting each other like guests. It is tantamount to His Majesty has clearly told them: I already have the heart of "abolishing the king and establishing martial arts", you can help me quickly. As a result, all the ministers who are good at welcoming have gradually become eager to try, not only with this to cater to His Majesty's heart, but also with a sense of reverence for their own beautiful career.

Under the personal guidance of Master Xuanzang, Li Zhi still held the hand of this Wu Meiniang tightly, and came to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda accompanied by the civil and military ministers. Here, Wang Xuance had already asked the soldiers to prepare this incense case and the melons and fruits to be offered.

Seeing that they had arrived at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, I saw that Wang Xuance led Zhou Chen and the others, stepped forward respectfully, bowed down and bowed: "Your Majesty, Wu Zhaoyi, all this has been prepared to stop, waiting for Your Majesty and Wu Zhaoyi to salute and offer incense."

Tang Gaozong Li Zhi raised his head and looked at the majestic Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and said to him with great joy: "Aiqing has worked hard, hurry up."

Wang Xuance led Zhou Chen and the others, and after thanking him, he immediately got up and picked up three sticks of incense and handed them to Li Zhi in person. Li Zhi still lit the three incense sticks on the oil lamp as before, and after sincere worship, he inserted the incense into the fine pottery incense burner on the incense table. Immediately afterwards, in front of this incense case, on a bright yellow futon filled with dragon's beard grass, this kneeling ceremony was performed.

After his salute was completed, Wang Xuance still took the three sticks of incense and handed it to Wu Zhaoyi with his own hands. On the one hand, she understood that this Big Wild Goose Pagoda was built by Li Zhi in the name of this Tibetan scripture for their first child, Li Hong. On the other hand, this Big Wild Goose Pagoda contains hundreds of Buddhist treasures, relics, which are supreme blessings from the Buddha. So he still took the three incense sticks sincerely, and after carefully lighting them on the oil lamp, he saluted them sincerely, made the same wish as just now, and then inserted the three incense sticks into the incense burner safely, and bowed down on the futon.

After the two ceremonies were completed, Master Xuanzang looked at the dignified two and said with a smile: "Please Your Majesty and Wu Zhaoyi to move to the gate of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and personally unveil the monument of the Holy Order of the Three Tibets." ”

The editor said: A matter of unveiling the monument, from the beginning they only worshiped Li Zhi, and later after seeing Li Zhi's actions and demeanor, they also ignored Wu Zhaoyi and became a promise, and finally Master Xuanzang asked Wu Zhaoyi to unveil the monument with Li Zhi, what do I want to explain? Ha ha......
