Chapter 996: The Prince's Pro-Government (I)
The believers were shocked to hear the bad news, some stood on the spot, and some cried out to the heavens and the earth, all of them were in disbelief!
In their minds, they were like gods, and they were defeated by three unknown old monks in front of the Great Khan, King Zhennan and others in Dadu!
Someone immediately pointed out that the king of Zhennan was personally in charge, and the victory or defeat was also determined by the king of Zhennan, maybe the king of Zhennan was deliberately biased. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This opinion was immediately refuted, and everyone in the temple, from the Great Khan to the high-ranking officials and dignitaries, was everyone deaf and blind? Could it be that the Great Khan was also afraid of the king of Zhennan, and he didn't dare to uphold justice for the emperor?
At the same time, many people are cheering, the Han people's Zen Buddhism defeated the Tantric Red Sect, which shows that the Han people's Buddhism is the most authentic.
The voices of cursing lamas in the crowd also came out one after another, and the guards outside the door did not dare to punish these people this time, for fear that they would be classified as thinking and angry with the king of Zhennan.
Kublai Khan faced an awkward situation. Ba Siba took the initiative to admit defeat, but he was the emperor of Kublai Khan's own title, and he also gave Kublai Khan and Chabi empowerment and ordination, Kublai Khan couldn't remove his name as emperor, right? Wouldn't that be a slap in the mouth? The only consolation is that Ba Siba at least did not lose in his own debate, and even had a slight upper hand, so that Kublai Khan could use this to pretend to be confused and perfunctory.
However, Kublai Khan's interest in Zen Buddhism increased greatly, and Cheng Yue's question made him scratch his heart and liver. When Cheng Yue accompanied him out, Kublai Khan quietly said to Cheng Yue: "Cheng Yue, in a few days, you will bring three eminent monks to Xiangshan to see me, don't make a noise." ”
Cheng Yue smiled slightly and said, "Yes." Suddenly remembered something, and said to Kublai Khan: "Great Khan, the minister plans to leave for the Southern Song Dynasty on March 15, and he specially reports to the Great Khan." ”
Kublai Khan's heart was pinched, and when the matter came to an end, he was still reluctant to follow Cheng Yue with his two daughters and many concubines in the harem, and hurriedly said: "What's the hurry?" After the wedding, you also want to live in Dadu for a month, right? How can there be a reason to leave so quickly? ”
Cheng Yue saw that Kublai Khan was reluctant, and smiled: "Yes, that minister will set off on March 23, and it can't be late." ”
Kublai Khan had the intention to keep him for a few more days, but he knew that Cheng Yue would definitely not listen, so he had to nod and say, "It's okay, but it's ...... Can the three masters leave me with one or two? ”
Cheng Yue thought for a while and said: "Lanxi Daolong and Daxiu Zhengnian are both monks of the Great Song Dynasty, and they really want to return to their homeland. ”
Kublai Khan felt a little comforted at this time, Cheng Yue left this time and returned to Dadu, I really don't know what year and month it will take, it all depends on Cheng Yue's thoughts.
After leaving the temple, the monarchs and ministers dispersed. The most desolate thing is the Buddha chariot who thinks about it, from the support of the people when he came, to the cold when he left, it only took one day. However, the three eminent monks suddenly became highly sought after, and many powerful people in the capital sent people to privately invite them to give lectures in the mansion. This is also a helpless thing, the three monks do not have temples in most of them, and the Zhennan Wangfu where they live is not a place where they can enter and exit casually, and they have to save a little face for the lama, of course, private invitation is the only choice.
The three senior monks adhered to Cheng Yue's intention and agreed to many invitations, which was expected by Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue returned to the palace, said the date of the return trip, and rewarded the three monks and Hengren and Jiuren with a few Buddhist artifacts that they got from Basiba, and they were all happy.
On the third day of the first month of March, Li Jushou was ordered by Kublai Khan to arrive at the Xiangshan villa early. In the morning, worship the god Xuantian and the Queen Mother, and in the afternoon, he will preach for Kublai Khan alone.
Kublai Khan was obviously much more pious than before when he did things. Li Jushou also went to the Great Protector Inwang Temple yesterday, so he naturally knew the reason.
At noon, Li Jushou accompanied Kublai Khan for lunch, and when he was resting and drinking tea, Boyan, An Tong and Dong Wenzhong suddenly came to the villa together to ask for a meeting.
The three important ministers asked to see them, and Kublai Khan hurriedly invited them in. After the three of them met, Boyan said enviously: "Great Khan, now that flowers are blooming on all sides, it shows that Xiangshan is a blessed land, and it is a blessing for the Great Khan to live here!" ”
Kublai Khan smiled proudly: "Yes, most summers are extremely hot, so it is much cooler here, and the more I live, the more comfortable I become, and I plan to live here for a long time." Then he tapped the table lightly and said, "What is the important matter for the three of you to come to me together?" ”
When Boyan, An Tong and Dong Wenzhong heard this, they each took out a large stack of twists and turns, all of which were the troubles they had saved up from years ago to the present, and they deliberately gathered together today and reported them to Kublai Khan.
Boyan Zhenzhen said eloquently: "These recitals should have been brought to the Great Khan a long time ago, but a few days ago, just after the New Year, followed by the wedding of the King of Zhennan and the two princesses, followed by the Eight Thoughts and Eight Kingdoms and the three high monks arguing with the Buddha, the ministers had to postpone these things until today, I really can't wait, the ministers came together and asked the Great Khan to approve." ”
When Kublai Khan saw these many twists and turns, he was a little displeased, but he heard that Boyan was reasonable, so he had to take them over and review them one by one. It's okay if you don't look at it, but the more you look at it, the more boring it becomes. Dozens of letters, none of which were concise and clear, all of them were entangled things, and Kublai Khan was dizzy. Compared with the leisure of the mountain residence, Kublai Khan was really more and more tired of the endless court politics, and after looking at it for a while, he threw his pen aside and rubbed his temples vigorously.
Seeing this, An Tong smiled slightly, and secretly gave Li Jushou a look, Li Jushou understood, coughed lightly, and said: "Great Khan, when the minister was just dipping in the fast, he suddenly felt something, and now he sees the great sweat and labor, and the minister is more certain." ”
Kublai Khan came to his senses and asked, "What induction?" Tell me about it. ”
Li Jushou said: "The crown prince is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is advisable to prepare for national politics, and the Great Khan should not work so hard anymore." ”
Kublai Khan was stunned, looked at the large number of twists and turns in front of him, and spontaneously felt the same way, sighed long, and said, "It's time for the prince to do more." ”
Dong Wenzhong saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and persuaded on the side: "These trivial matters should not be handled by the Great Khan in the first place, and it is not good to hand them over to the ministers, so it is the right time to let the prince do it for him." ”
Kublai Khan nodded again and again, and asked Boyan and An Tong, "What do you think?" ”
Boyan and An Tong both pretended to think for a while, and An Tong said cautiously: "Great Khan, the prince has a lot of experience in the affairs of the court, so it seems that he can make a little arrangement. ”
Boyan said more clearly, saying: "Great Khan, since the crown prince is the prince, he has not been in charge of the government for many years, how can he win the hearts of the upper and lower levels? The minister thought that there was a great khan, and there would be no chaos, so the minister seconded the proposal. ”
