Chapter 1354: Go to the temple outside the city and take a look

Sima Yi told Jiang Gan about the matter he had discussed with Liu Wei.

Knowing that he was going to Jiangdong, Jiang Gan not only did not feel embarrassed at all, but said to Sima Yi: "Zhong Da rest assured, Zhou Yu and Zhou Yu are former classmates, this classmate friendship, I can't forget Zhou Yu, this time I go to Jiangdong, something will happen!" ”

Seeing that Jiang Gan's face was full of confidence, Sima Yi became a little worried.

He frowned slightly, stared at Jiang Gan and said, "That Zhou Yu is too scheming, Ziyi definitely can't underestimate him!" ”

"Yes, yes!" Waving his hand with a nonchalant face, Jiang Gan said: "When a certain person came to Luoyang that day, he rebelled against Lu Bu and Diao Chan, even if Zhou Yu was a hero, but the hero was Lu Bu?" ”

Jiang Gan said that he came to Luoyang back then, and Sima Yi couldn't find a reason to refute him, but just reminded him to be careful, and then said goodbye to him and left.

Leaving Xun Yu's residence, Liu Wei walked all the way towards the palace accompanied by Wang Liu and Wang Zhen.

As he was walking, he seemed to suddenly think of something, restrained the war horse, and said to Wang Liu and Wang Zhen: "I suddenly remembered something! ”

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the palace, Liu Wei suddenly reined in the war horse, but Wang Liu and Wang Zhen were confused.

Looking at Liu Wei with doubts, Wang Zhen asked, "What did your majesty remember?" ”

"When I left Luoyang, I saw a temple outside the city!" Looking at Wang Zhen, Liu Wei said: "The incense in the temple is bleak, I don't know what is happening now." ”

"What His Majesty said, but the King Kong Cliff Temple?" Liu Wei mentioned the temple, Wang Zhen thought for a while and then said to him: "The Jingang Cliff Temple was built by the monks of the Western Regions when Emperor Ming was introduced, and it has been hundreds of years now. It's just that the people of the Central Plains don't believe in the Western Regions Shrine, so the incense is bleak! ”

"Let's go! Check it out! After thinking about it for a while, Liu Wei put his war horse in his pocket and said to Wang Liu and Wang Zhen: "I heard that most of the senior monks are superb in Buddhism, and I happen to have leisure today, and I will go and talk to the monks in the temple to see if the monks in the temple can make my mind a little calmer!" ”

Knowing that Liu Wei had been entangled in many mundane affairs recently, and his heart must have been bored, Wang Liu and Wang Zhen did not persuade him, but just answered and followed him all the way to the city gate.

Jingangya Temple is located on the outskirts of Luoyang.

To get to the temple, you have to walk a little further through the city gates.

Since the construction of the temple, the Han family has not been very respectful of Buddhism, so the incense of the temple is not very prosperous.

In Luoyang City, there are often some monks and novices who come into the city to preach the Dharma, but most of the people in the city believe in the Tao and are not very familiar with the Dharma, so their preaching has little effect.

Liu Wei thought of the Jingangya Temple, or because he fled Luoyang that day, he once passed by the temple gate.

Although he didn't have much intersection with the temple at that time, he left too many memories on the way to escape that day, and going to the Kongoya Temple was nothing more than to retrieve some memories of the past.

Accompanied by Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, Liu Wei led a group of guards out of the city gate.

The Han army guarding the city gate, seeing that he was leading people to come, did not dare to stop them, and stood beside the city gate and bowed to him with fists.

Gan Ning, who was at the head of the city, saw that there was a team out of the city, and was about to ask the soldiers who was out of the city, when an officer guarding the city gate ran to the city quickly, clasped his fists and bowed to him and said: "General Qiyu, Your Majesty has just led people out of the city!" ”

Hearing that Liu Wei had left the city, Gan Ning was taken aback, and hurriedly said to the officer: "Quickly go to the dragoon guard camp and inform General Deng Zhan, just say that His Majesty is out of the city, and ask him to decide whether to go out of the city to escort!" ”

"No!" Liu Wei went out of the city, which was a great event for the Han army, and the officers did not dare to delay, so they hurriedly got off the city wall, turned over and rode a fast horse, and did not care about the will of the city not to gallop the horse, and clamped his legs on the horse's belly, while shouting loudly to let the people on the road get out of the way, while flying horses towards the dragoon guard camp.

Out of Luoyang City, Liu Wei walked not far accompanied by Wang Liu and others, looked back at the city wall, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "I don't know why, leaving Luoyang, I feel a lot more relaxed in my heart!" ”

"Your Majesty has been in the city for too long, if you go out of the city often, your mood will be better." Following Liu Wei, while walking forward with him, Wang Zhen said a word.

Liu Wei didn't say anything, but Wang Liu on the side interjected and said: "It's easy for my sister to say, but how can Your Majesty go out of the city often?" ”

was said by Wang Liu, and Wang Zhen was silent.

She also knew that in the palace, the things that Liu Wei had to deal with all day long were simply piled up.

Not only did he have to know how the battle was going, but he also had to deal with the pieces of music that were presented from all over the country.

Wherever there are floods and droughts, and where officials are impeached, he will personally inquire about them.

Thinking about it, this emperor did really hard work.

Riding a horse to the front, Liu Wei was also full of emotion.

Since he became the emperor, his leisure days have become less and less, and he is busy dealing with those folds sent from all over the world, and he has to think about how to strengthen the Han army and finally dominate the world.

In the early years, when he fled Luoyang, he never thought about what life would be like when he really became the emperor one day.

Now that he has really become an emperor, Liu Wei doesn't have much feeling of being in a high position, all he feels is endless tiredness.

It's not easy to be an emperor, it's even harder to be a good emperor!

If he had a choice, he would rather be a general who led the army to fight and let someone else be the emperor!

But he has come to this point, he has completely reversed the trajectory of history, even if he doesn't want to continue, he is already shooting arrows, and he can only fly to the destination and think about how to fall.

Along the official road outside the city, Liu Wei walked forward, and did not say anything more along the way.

It didn't take long for everyone to see a temple appear in front of them.

The temple covers a large area, but the buildings are somewhat old.

The roofs of many of the houses have cracked tiles and have apparently not been repaired for many years.

Seeing the temple that appeared in front of him, Liu Wei gently clamped his legs towards the horse's belly and rode the horse towards the temple.

Seeing that he had quickened the speed of his march, Wang Liu and the others also hurriedly followed.

When he arrived at the temple, Liu Wei glanced up at a few small seals on the door, and then took the reins and rode his horse into the main gate of the temple.

When he entered the temple, he did not turn over and dismount, but kept riding on horseback and walked to the very spacious front yard.

The monks in the temple were doing their homework when they heard someone riding into the temple and ran out.

Monks also often enter Luoyang City to preach the Dharma or buy some daily necessities, some of whom have entered the city, and they know Liu Wei.

Seeing that it was the Han Emperor who came to the temple, the monks who recognized Liu Wei were taken aback and knelt on the ground in panic.

The monks who didn't recognize Liu Wei saw many people kneeling on the ground, and although they wondered who was coming in their hearts, they didn't dare to ask more, and fell to the ground one after another.

"I'm here today, just for leisure!" Seeing the monks kneeling, Liu Wei raised his hand at them and said, "You can get up later!" ”

The presiding officer of the temple did not recognize Liu Bian, and when he knelt on the ground, a monk on the side whispered to him about Liu Bian's identity.

Knowing that it was the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, the host was surprised at the same time, but also faintly felt that the King Kong Cliff Temple was afraid that from today onwards, it would be a different scenery.

"Majesty!" Kneeling on the ground, the host lowered his head and said to Liu Wei: "Yesterday, the old monk watched the sky at night, and saw Ziwei wandering over the temple, I really don't know what the Lord is doing, and I don't want to see the real dragon today." The old monk is late, and he hopes that His Majesty will forgive his sins! ”

Raising his hand to the host again, Liu Wei turned over and dismounted, and said to the host while walking towards the main hall: "You wait to get up, I just want to worship the Buddha on a whim!" ”

Liu Wei strode towards the main hall, and the host hurriedly stood up and followed behind him.

Due to the barrier of Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, the host could not get too close to Liu Bian, walking beside Wang Liu, he asked Liu Bian: "Your Majesty also respects Buddhism?" ”

"The shrines of the world, I have a heart of awe!" Glancing back at the host, Liu Wei said: "Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains from the Western Regions, and it should be promoted since Emperor Ming, but I don't know what you have been doing for hundreds of years!" ”

When Liu Wei said this, the host immediately blushed, and followed him to the main hall, but he only wished that he couldn't find a hole in the ground to get into.

"Bodhidharma Patriarch crossed the river with a reed and introduced Buddhism to the Central Plains." Entering the main hall and looking around at the statues in the hall, Liu Wei said to the host: "Back then, the patriarch lived in this King Kong Cliff Temple? ”

"Returning to Your Majesty, exactly!" Bowing down, the host was already covered in cold sweat.

He originally wanted to talk about Buddhism in front of Liu Wei and persuade the emperor of the Han Dynasty to believe in the Buddha, but he didn't expect that the things that the emperor understood were far beyond his expectations.

"Get incense!" Standing in front of the statue of the main god in the main hall, Liu Wei gave an order to Wang Zhen on the side.

Before Wang Zhen could respond, a small novice had already taken the incense and handed it to a guard standing behind.

The incense was lit, Liu Wei held the incense in both hands, bowed to the Buddha statue three times, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.

Seeing Liu Wei saluting the Buddha statue, not only Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, but even the guards who followed into the main hall were all stunned.

As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, although Liu Wei has had many visions from heaven since he raised his army, the soldiers of the Han army have never seen him so respectful to any shrine.

Looking at each other, everyone who followed Liu Wei into the hall faintly felt something.

Standing aside, the host, who was already covered in cold sweat, kept his head down, and didn't even dare to speak.

From what Liu Biao said, he already felt that this emperor knew a lot of Buddhism, and it was obviously an unwise choice to teach the Dharma in front of Liu Bian.
