Chapter 884: Meet Li Zhi

Master Xuanzang is extremely happy, don't look at his age, but he can do things for the emperor, and make the Dharma bigger and bigger, so important that it can save the Tang Dynasty, for him, it is still worth rejoicing!

He thought to himself: "As a monk, I can finally do something for the country, and this Dharma must be done to a complete conclusion, carry forward the Dharma, and let everyone in the world know the existence of my Dharma Xiangzong!" ”

Tang Xuanzang set up his own sect, which belonged to the Mahayana Buddhism sect and was called the Faxiangzong. Only those who truly understand the Dharma, know the Buddha nature, and understand the Buddha's principles can embark on a smooth path from this. However, since the sect has been established, it must be promoted.

Since he learned that Wang Ping'an is the best at advertising, he has carefully studied what advertising is, and he feels that it cannot be simply said to be widely advertised, but more importantly, to let the world know how important and authentic the things that are advertised. So if he wants to advertise his own sect, then it would be better to use the royal rituals for publicity.

Master Xuanzang recited the Buddha's name and said to Wang Ping'an: "Nian Worry Zen Master, without further ado, in order to save my Tang Sheji, let's go now, go out of the city overnight, and catch up with my Tang Emperor tomorrow morning, and then immediately start doing things to resolve this difficulty!" ”

Wang Ping'an said repeatedly: "Reasonable, reasonable, let's go!" Master Xuanzang, you bring all the apprentices, let's let the soldiers of Beiya prepare horses and chase the emperor overnight. By the way, bring all the magic weapons you need, so as not to do the magic when you get it, and the things will not be handy, which weakens the effect of exorcism. ”

Master Xuanzang said: "That's nature, everything that should be brought must be bringed." Otherwise, let's go our separate ways, Lao Wei will take his disciples to clean up the magic weapons, Nian Wei Zen Master, you go to the Xuanwu Gate to prepare horses, let's meet at the door, what do you think? ”

"Great, but you'll have to hurry up!" Wang Ping'an said.

Master Xuanzang ran out of the hall and beckoned the apprentices to return to the Enlightenment Hall and pack up their things.

Wang Ping'an said to Queen Wang and Shi Aiguo: "Sister, you can stay in the palace." Mr. Shi, please stay with the queen mother, and call the deacons and palace maids in a group, and more than a hundred or so people protect her, I don't believe that the evil ghost can still get close to her and harm her life! ”

Shi Aiguo nodded in agreement, he waved his hand at Mi Xiaomiao, and said: "Xiaomiao, you follow Wang Xiangye to see the emperor and give Wang Xiangye a hand or something, don't be lazy, you have to be diligent." ”

Mi Xiaomiao understood what Shi Aiguo meant, Shi Aiguo himself was unwilling to come forward, so he explained to the emperor that if the emperor was angry, then he would be the one who was scolded! Who made himself a godnephew, and someone else was a goduncle, Mi Xiaomiao had no choice but to agree.

Wang Ping'an took Mi Xiaomiao and a few small eunuchs to the Xuanwu Gate again, and asked the general of the forbidden army on duty to ask for horses. The general is easy to speak, anyway, the dignified prime minister has spoken, and there is a fake chief manager to assist, so there is no need for him to stop it. He asked the soldiers to quickly prepare more than 100 war horses and hand them over to Wang Ping'an to use.

As soon as the war horse was ready, Master Xuanzang came with his apprentices, and the people carried the magic weapon in a small bag, and ran upside down. Everyone converged, rode on war horses, went out of the Xuanwu Gate, and chased in the direction of Li Zhi's hunting.

All the way, everyone rode their horses and galloped, marching extremely fast, and when the sky was about to dawn, they immediately caught up with the brigade in front. At this time, some of the forbidden army got up early, they were cooking on the fire, and everyone in the whole camp was busy, but no one spoke, and the atmosphere was gloomy, presumably everyone was afraid that the emperor would be angry, so they tried not to make a sound, so as not to cause trouble.

Wang Ping'an arrived at the camp, got off his horse, and rushed to see Li Zhi with Master Xuanzang and Mi Xiaomiao, while the monks of the brigade stayed outside the camp, and the forbidden army would not let them in without going through the ceremony.

Wang Ping'an arrived outside Li Zhi's tent and said to the guarded forbidden army: "As soon as I was tired, I said that Wang Ping'an, the provincial servant under the door, had something important to ask to see the emperor." ”

He spoke quite loudly, that is, it was just a formality, and if Li Zhi inside had woken up, he could hear it. Even if the forbidden army is polite, he speaks through the tent, and it is no different from himself.

Sure enough, before the forbidden army could speak, Li Zhi's voice came from inside, and Li Zhi's voice was hoarse, and said, "Is there no disease outside?" Come in and talk. ”

Wang Ping'an hurriedly agreed, signaling Master Xuanzang and Mi Xiaomiao to wait outside, he straightened his clothes, coughed, opened the tent curtain, and entered the tent. I saw that there were candles still lit in the tent, the smoke was very choking, Li Zhi was lying on the mattress, with a handkerchief on his forehead, and Wu Meiniang was kneeling next to him, her eyes were red, and the tears had not disappeared, as if she had just cried.

As soon as Wang Ping'an came in, Wu Meiniang immediately said: "Uncle, you are here, but do you know about Sujie?" ”

Wang Ping'an hummed, knelt in front of Li Zhi, and said, "The minister has seen the emperor." After seeing the ceremony, he said to Wu Meiniang: "I know, when the queen was wronged last night and sent back to the palace, I happened to be in the palace, and after learning the news, I immediately rushed over, so as not to miss a big event!" ”

He only said one sentence, and he made his position clear, he supported Queen Wang, and believed that Queen Wang was wronged, so he came this time, that is, to intercede for Queen Wang, the meaning was clear, and there was no error in expression.

Wu Meiniang was taken aback and thought, "It turns out that he supports Queen Wang!" That's right, he and Queen Wang are godsisters and brothers, if you don't help her, the master of the harem, how can you help me, not to mention that he doesn't necessarily know how Su Jie died, and he wants to check it out! ”

Surprised, Wu Meiniang's face was silent, but said: "What my uncle said is very true, I also said that the queen mother was wronged, and please don't lose your temper and don't punish the queen mother!" ”

Wang Ping'an looked at Wu Meiniang, nodded heavily, and said: "Although you are a woman, you also understand when you see things, and you know that the queen mother has been wronged." ”

He turned his head and said to Li Zhi again: "The minister sorted out all the things that happened recently, and then carefully analyzed it, and found a shocking conspiracy, which is related to my Tang Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, and also related to the emperor and your imperial heir, so I took Master Xuanzang to come overnight and reported to the emperor to know." ”

Li Zhi took away the handkerchief on his forehead, got up slightly, looked at Wang Ping'an, and said, "What conspiracy?" What are you doing with Xuanzang, isn't he doing things in the palace? ”

Wang Ping'an said: "Your Majesty, if this conspiracy is told by the minister, I am afraid that you will not believe it, so the minister specially brought Master Xuanzang, and he will explain it for you, it must be more credible, why don't you let him in and tell you about it?" ”

Li Zhi sighed, put the mattress in one hand, straightened up, and said, "No disease, where are you talking about, how can I not believe what you say?" What kind of conspiracy is it, and what does it have to do with the queen, it's up to you to say it, and you don't need to call the monk in. ”

Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "The emperor trusts the ministers, and the ministers are grateful." But this conspiracy is too big, so it's better for Master Xuanzang to say it, and you can just add it by the minister. ”

Li Zhi thought about it, didn't squeak, but looked at Wu Meiniang, he used to rely on Wang Ping'an for everything, but recently, this trust has gradually transferred to Wu Meiniang, no matter what, the pillow person is always the most trusted, and he is no exception, not to mention that this pillow person still has quite an idea.

Wu Meiniang was a little frightened, and she couldn't figure out what the conspiracy Wang Ping'an was talking about. She asked: "Uncle, what is that conspiracy about, and it even endangers my Datang society, what does it have to do with the prince?" ”

Wang Ping'an sighed and said: "In short, it has something to do with the death of Concubine Xiao Shu, and it is also related to the death of the emperor's youngest son, Su Jie, if the scope is wider, and even the death of the chief steward Shi Zhongchen, it also has a lot to do with it." It's a long story, it's hard to explain! ”

Wu Meiniang immediately broke out in a cold sweat, if she wanted to talk about the conspiracy, she herself had committed something, couldn't it be that Wang Ping'an found something, or deduced something, so he said so, he wanted to investigate thoroughly? The conspiracy in the world is afraid to be investigated, if something is found, won't he have to end his future and have no place in the palace?

Wang Ping'an saw her look of fear, and was afraid that she would speak out against it, in case Li Zhi didn't see Master Xuanzang because of her few words, it would be terrible, and he would be busy with everything he had spent a lot of time.

Wang Ping'an hurriedly said: "The frequent deaths in the palace have been found out by Master Xuanzang, not because of man-made, but because of the evil ghosts of the previous dynasty, or old ghosts." But the matter of ghosts and gods is not clear to the minister, so it can only be explained by Master Xuanzang. He said to Wu Meiniang again: "You don't have to worry, although the evil ghosts are fierce, but with me, I will not let them hurt you." Rest assured, albeit assured! ”

As soon as he gave Wu Meiniang a reassuring pill, Wu Meiniang really put her mind at ease, it turned out that she had found an excuse, which could be regarded as finding a scapegoat, but the scapegoat was an old ghost, not a living person, which was quite unexpected.

Wu Meiniang was afraid of Li Sujie's matter, and found out on her head, and when she heard that Wang Ping'an had an "excuse" to solve it, she naturally wouldn't let it go, and quickly nodded: "In this way, I really have to let Master Xuanzang come in to explain!" ”

Only then did Li Zhi say: "Okay, then let him in, and explain the matter of the old evil ghosts clearly." I didn't sleep all night last night, just thinking about Su Jie, I felt uncomfortable, if I could know the reason for Su Jie's death earlier, my heart would be more steady. ”

Wang Ping'an rushed outside the tent and said loudly: "Master Xuanzang, please come in, the emperor wants to see you." ”

Outside the tent, Master Xuanzang took a deep breath and thought: "Whether my Faxiang Sect can become the first sect of Buddhism depends on today!" He recited the Buddha's name aloud, opened the curtain, and bowed his head and came in.

As soon as he entered the tent, Master Xuanzang was choked and coughed twice, thinking: "Why is this tent more smoky than the Buddha Hall, people have been in the tent for a long time, I'm afraid they will get sick, and it's easier for demons to invade!" ”
