Chapter 48

Previous Chapter

Pagoda I know that the emperor in front of me likes to worship the Buddha, so he built a pagoda in the northwest corner of the palace, and personally went up to sweep it a few times on Sundays and holidays.

It's just that this meaning has become a convention, and it has been recorded in the ancestral training of the palace, and whoever is lazy and takes leave temporarily must be recorded in the historical records.

The emperor in the back felt that he was very wronged, he liked alchemy, he liked immortality, and he couldn't worship both Lao Tzu and Buddha half-heartedly, so that the two in heaven would feel that he was insincere.

Therefore, he thought of a way to let his son go to worship the Buddha instead of himself, called the Heavenly Patrol Hunt, and share the worries of the king.

It was also his son who was playful, and accidentally fell down a high step and broke a leg when he was worshipping the Buddha.

Originally, this was normal, whose bear child hadn't experienced this, just break his leg and cure it, and besides, there are several more sons. But the emperor insisted on going online, thinking that he had angered the Buddha and made the Buddha punish him, and he was guilty.

So he decided to lead the practice and personally atone for the sins he committed, but he was the emperor, how could he go to the Buddhist temple to become a monk, even if he didn't leave home, the government was still waiting for him to deal with it personally.

However, even the Queen Mother came forward, and the emperor just insisted on going his own way, not only insisting on going his own way, but also passing on a holy decree: Whoever dares to stop it is like an assassin.

This crime is a big crime, it is a felony to rob the family and exterminate the clan, no one dares to cross this red line for a while, and the emperor's ears are finally clean.

The Queen Mother was very anxious and consulted with the ministers overnight to see who could come up with a good idea.

The ministers also did their best and came up with a lot of bad ideas, such as matching the emperor with a few more beauties and a few more cooks, so that the emperor would indulge in wine, so that he would no longer worship the Buddha.

Such bad ideas emerge one after another, so that the Queen Mother came to a conclusion that relying on these people to assist the emperor and govern the world is like pressing a seesaw on a tightrope and looking for death.

In the end, the Queen Mother decided to expand the imperial list and recruit strange people from all over the world, as long as she can come up with a reliable idea, she will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold.

One of them was a beggar, who smelled all over his body, and he had to wear a mask when he was three feet away, and the guards stopped him for the sake of the dignity of the palace.

He was not in a hurry, saying that he didn't need to see the emperor's face, as long as he handed over a word, the emperor would immediately dispel the idea of becoming a monk.

The guards were skeptical, but the Queen Mother had a will, no matter whether the black cat or the white cat, the one who caught the mouse was a good cat.

It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he can cure the emperor, it will be a great achievement.

After layers of reports, the guards finally passed this sentence to the emperor.

I heard that after hearing this, the emperor was stunned for a long time, and finally laughed, said a few words, and immediately dressed up and started to run to the concubines in the harem.

As for what the beggar said, it worked so well, the guards were silent, and the Queen Mother personally issued an edict, and this matter was not allowed to be mentioned again, and violators should be killed.

Therefore, this sentence has become an unsolved case, and all large-scale discussions will be taken out to discuss it, from the first-class officials to the peddlers' pawns, they will express their insights to their heart's content.

I heard that when a guard was dying, he called his own son to the bedside and retired everyone, just to pass on this sentence.

The son confided in the truth after a drunken time, and said that sentence, but it was only eight words, and when he said it, most people thought it was not credible.

Those eight words are: Jigong became a Buddha, and Peng Zu attained the Tao.

It was such a simple eight words, which made the talented people all over the world feel terrible, and they all said that they could not believe it, how could a beggar say such a regular word, and it was full of deep meaning, which made them embarrassed, so they continued to hold a seminar to guess what that sentence was.

Later, a new temple was built outside the palace, the incense was very prosperous, the royal family then took it as a new holy place for worshiping the Buddha, every time the sacrificial season, they had to go to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, and the great monks talked about life and all things, and this pagoda gradually became deserted.

Although it has declined here, it was also a royal exclusive service before, and it was written into the ancestral teachings, so it was left to be sprinkled and cleaned, and a small courtyard was also equipped for living.

As expected, this is the specially equipped small courtyard, which is really simple enough, and it is all antiques as far as the eye can see.

Since they brought me here and let me see their true faces, it means one thing, they don't intend to let me go alive.

In this case, I will tear my own skin and let them see my true face of Lushan.

After all, there may be a silver lining.

They caught the wrong person, they had to leave me alive, wait for the big punishment and then let me confess, isn't it all played out like this in the play?

I think it's beautiful, but the reality is skinny.

It's easy to put on this skin, but it's hard to take it off, and I've been looking for a long time, but I still haven't found a single gap.

Well, you're really dedicated to cheating.

But it hurt me!

Seeing that I was tired of stroking my face, I sneered that the eldest brother was impatient and drank me: "Queen, what tricks are you going to do?" ”

I don't do tricks, I'm just letting you see my true face of Lushan, and then telling you that you have caught the wrong person.

Since the evidence could not be revealed, I had to rely on the testimony of witnesses.

I said, "Both, if I tell you that I am not the Queen, will you believe me?" ”

The two of them looked at each other in surprise.

Okay, it looks like there's a show, no, they're starting to suspect it, and I'm going to have to keep up the good work.

However, the next sentence of the sneering brother shattered all my illusions.

Sure enough, the sneering brother is sharp-eyed.

He said: "Queen, I suspected you of being a fake before, but now that you say so, I am sure that you must be the queen herself, and you should not play tricks in front of me, and tell you that I will not be deceived by you in a few words." ”

God, I finally told the truth, why didn't anyone believe it?

I continued to struggle weakly, pointing to my face and saying, "Look, this is a human skin mask, if you don't believe it, touch it!" ”

I looked at them with encouraging eyes and let them touch my face as much as they could.

However, the sneering brother shattered my struggle again.

He said, "Queen, I'm sorry, I don't have this fetish. ”

I tried to persuade him again, but he took out something and shouted at me: "Queen, you kneel!" ”

Is it so easy for me to kneel?
