Chapter 115: Fighting Jade
After losing two games in a row, even a generation of grandmasters like Garqinling frowned, he understood that Zhu Mingyang was an unusual person, and Wu Zetian was also a rare and extremely intelligent woman, so he had already expected that the two disciples would end up like this.

Even if he failed twice, Garqinling was not depressed to meet such a high-level person, and Garqinling did not want to lose this opportunity, so Garqinling decided to go out in person for the third session.
"I didn't expect the son and the female benefactor to be really smart, so let me personally ask the two for advice!" Garqinling said expressionlessly.
"I have the honor to discuss Buddhism with the master, and I am fortunate to wait for three lives, and I also ask the master to ask the question!" Zhu Mingyang responded politely.
"Childe is really fast-talking, I'll tell Childe a story first! One day, I sat on the embankment with all my disciples and sat in meditation, the spring breeze blew the willows, and a disciple asked me if the wind was moving or the willows were moving, and I asked the son what was moving! Garqin asked meaningfully.
"What the hell is moving?" As soon as the issue of the Garqin Mausoleum came out, the entire Taiji Palace became arguing.
"I think it's the wind! How can leaves move without wind! A minister whispered.
"No, no, no. It must be the willow leaves moving, can you see the wind, how can the wind see it? Another minister argued.
Li Zhi also whispered with Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, and seemed to be arguing about whether it was the wind or the willow leaves that were moving, but Wu Zetian looked at Zhu Mingyang with a confused expression, and he understood that he couldn't help the man in front of him if he understood anything.
"Hehe, that's ...... question!" Zhu Mingyang suddenly paused and shook his head.
Everyone held their breath when they saw Zhu Mingyang shaking his head, and the atmosphere of the entire Taiji Palace became extremely serious, and everyone stared at Zhu Mingyang tightly, expecting Zhu Mingyang to finish speaking.
"I didn't expect that Zhu Gongzi would be stumped by this question, in fact, I didn't know how to answer it at that time!" Garqin Ling shook his head when he saw Zhu Mingyang, and also comforted Zhu Mingyang.
"I mean, it's too easy!" Zhu Mingyang suddenly said firmly.
"Too easy? Please also make it clear! Garqinling didn't expect Zhu Mingyang to say simple, and a sense of humiliation in his heart instinctively arose, after all, he had been involved in Buddhism for decades, and the problems that occurred were said by Zhu Mingyang to be simple, and he was still sad in his heart.
"Actually, it's not the wind that moves, it's not the willow leaves that move, it's the hearts of people that move. Zazen should have no external objects in the mind, but you can know that the wind or the leaves are moving, and the only thing is that you are distracted and your heart is moving. Zhu Mingyang said impassionedly.
As soon as Zhu Mingyang said this, everyone, including Li Zhi, breathed a deep sigh of relief, everyone was entangled in the leaves and wind, but no one was entangled in people's hearts.
"How did Childe know! This ......" Garqinling suddenly stood up, his emotions became excited, he never thought that Zhu Mingyang had seen a similar story in that distant country.
"Actually, the heart of the national teacher is also moving, the national teacher is not just coming to my Datang this time to discuss the Buddha, but also to explore my Datang at the same time, waiting for the opportunity to enter my Datang! I am an outstanding person in the Tang Dynasty, and there are countless people like me who can discuss Buddhism with the national teacher, who is originally a Buddhist and sensible, and it is also a bad thing for the two countries to increase the killing. And when the first emperor was in power, he also married Princess Wencheng to Songtsen Gampo, and peaceful coexistence was also expected, I think the national teacher should still calm down. Zhu Mingyang saw that the Garqin Mausoleum was emotional, and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and raised the discussion of Buddha to a national issue.
Everyone in Taiji Palace was surprised after hearing Zhu Mingyang's impassioned praise, and they were even more impressed by Zhu Mingyang in their hearts. Unexpectedly, Zhu Mingyang not only studied Buddhism, but also used this issue to establish national prestige, so that the border between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo would be much more peaceful for at least a while, and it seems that Zhu Mingyang's political skills are also beyond ordinary people.
"You...... Anyway, I didn't expect Childe to have such ability. Indeed, I came to Datang this time to find out the truth of the Tang Dynasty, but not to enter the Tang Dynasty, I Zampu Songtsen Gampo is old, but there are still Bon forces in the country, if there is chaos in my Tubo, please ask Your Majesty to help. So Zampu asked me to see the attitude of His Majesty to the newly enthroned towards me in Tibet. Garqin Mausoleum suddenly sighed deeply.
"So that's the case, you go back and tell Songtsan Gampo that I, Datang, am willing to maintain a good relationship with Tubo, just like the first emperor." Li Zhi's eyes showed a hint of friendliness.
"That's great!" A smile was on the round face of the Galqin Mausoleum.
"And! This time, the national teacher worked hard all the way, so that the household department allocated 10,000 horses of silk and 1,000 boxes of porcelain, and should not be neglected! Li Zhi saw that the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo was as good as ever, and the dragon face was happy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Garqinling didn't expect Li Zhi to attach so much importance to the relationship between the two, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly gave the biggest Tibetan gift in Tibet.
"Zhu Mingyang, I heard that you saved the national teacher some time ago, and today you have made great contributions to maintaining the relationship between my Tang Dynasty and Tubo, how should I reward you?" Zhu Mingyang suddenly moved his gaze to Zhu Mingyang again.
"I heard that the food of the king should be the king's worries, and since I am a five-grade Sima, it is my duty to be able to do things for the country." Zhu Mingyang knew that there were still many ministers in the two rows staring at him, and he must not be too high-profile.
"I am deeply pleased to be able to resolve the contradictions between the two countries this time, and I wanted to promote you to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but you did not participate in the imperial examination, and after your imperial examination, I will reuse you! Tell us what you want! Of course, Li Zhi knew that there were those ministers standing on both sides, especially the old ministers of Changsun Wuji who were watching him. Therefore, he can't do what he wants, Li Zhi believes that Zhu Mingyang will be successful in the coming year.
"I ......" Zhu Mingyang really doesn't know what he wants, he doesn't have any other needs except to find a way to go back, he has Cuicui and Xu Yueer, he has Cuicui and Xu Yueer, he can't use up the money, and the house is in the most prosperous West Market in Chang'an.
"Your Majesty, I have a good suggestion!" At this time, Wu Zetian suddenly stepped forward and said.
"Mei Niang, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" Li Zhi heard that Wu Zetian had a good suggestion, and cheered up.
"I heard that there are two beautiful women in Lord Zhu's house. One is named Cai Cuicui, who is my sworn sister, and the other is Xu Yueer, who is the woman who borrowed troops to protect the treasure in Huayuan County last time, but both of them are orphans, so although Zhu Gongzi and the second daughter have a deep relationship, they have been suffering from no matchmaker, so I ask Your Majesty to marry Lord Zhu, this is a great joy! "Wu Zetian is extremely intelligent, of course, he knows Zhu Mingyang well.
"I see! Good, good, good. I'm going to be a moon old today. Spread my will, give Cai Cuicui as the princess of Changle, give Xu Yue'er as the princess of Anle, and choose an auspicious day for the Ministry of Rites to complete the marriage! Li Zhilang smiled.
"Your Majesty, this ...... I haven't prepared yet! Zhu Mingyang's face was red to the base of his ears.
"I didn't expect Lord Zhu to be able to get married, hahahaha!" Li Zhi and everyone in the Taiji Palace laughed......
