Chapter 406: Changing to an Obedient Emperor; Isn't that a coincidence?

The reunion of father and daughter is a joyful event.

Naturally, Fahai's master and apprentice will not ruin the reunion of their relatives in front of them.

For His Majesty the Tianzhu Kingdom, the father and daughter have not seen each other overnight. But the princess, it's been two years.

After a while, the father and daughter finally reined in their emotions.

After taking her seat, the princess told her father everything that had happened to her. It's just that he hid the fact that he was the fairy of the Moon Palace Su'e in his previous life, and the details of the jade rabbit essence were not explained to his father, only that he was taken away by a rabbit spirit and locked up in the Bujin Temple.

"Oops!" The emperor was also afraid, and hurriedly said: "My prince suffered this catastrophe, and I don't even know it? ”

The emperor clenched his hands into fists and slammed it on the desk, and with another look of remorse, obviously blaming himself, he explained: "Although I noticed that after that day, the state of the prince was different. How could I have thought of this? Besides, she said at the time that she was suffering from the wind and cold, alas! ”

Emperor Tianzhu sighed, held the hands of the princess beside him, and said, "Wang'er, you have suffered in the past two years. ”

After speaking, he sincerely thanked Master Sanzang and others: "The holy monk and the elders saved my beloved daughter. How can I not be grateful? Come and take 10,000 gold. ”

It is worthy of His Majesty the Emperor, his hand is generous, and his mouth is ten thousand gold.

However, their masters and apprentices have always not cared about money, but at this time, His Majesty wants to thank him, and Fahai is not ready to refuse, but just changes his words: "Your Majesty, if you give ten thousand gold, it is better to exchange this ten thousand gold for grain and goods, and scatter it among all the people." ”

Emperor Tianzhu immediately got up and made a Buddhist salute to Master Sanzang, saying: "The Holy Monk's Compassion Fruit is unusual, it is a true Buddha, so according to what the Holy Monk said." ”

"Amitabha." Fahai recited the Buddha's name.

was also influenced by Wukong's previous words, and after Fahai entered the palace, he also looked at this majesty a few more times.

Although it is only the first glance at the emperor of Tianzhu Kingdom, in this Xizhou realm, he can be regarded as a rare Ming monarch.

It is said that with him sitting in Tianzhu Kingdom, the fortunes of the country should be unhindered, so how could he suffer a disaster because of himself?

Could it be that this monkey head is not good at learning and miscalculated?

Fahai temporarily pressed what he thought in his heart, after all, even Guanyin Bodhisattva had said that today's heavenly opportunity is not clear, especially when it comes to himself, there will always be some deviations in the originally established things, and even go in the opposite direction completely.

The reason for this, Fahai himself knows.

After all, this westward journey was supposed to be walked by Master Sanzang, but now it has been replaced by himself, not that there is a deviation, but that he has not been corrected at all.

Don't you see, Wukong's head has not been put on until now?

What hasn't happened yet is unknown after all, even if you peek at some clues, what can you do?

His Majesty the Emperor didn't forget to release those palace people, after all, the princess also came back, so the fault was not on them, and some mortals in the palace, how could they watch a goblin?

When the Great Sage entered the palace, he looked around, and he didn't find any masters in this palace, that is, the strongest forbidden army guard commander in the palace, and only among mortals, he was considered the peak of military generals.

Maybe let him fight head-on with some ordinary demons, and fight for life and death, he may still win, but if the demon casts a demon magic change, he will naturally be blind.

But who would have thought that in the capital of Tianzhu Kingdom, which is blessed by Lingshan, there will be demons invading Ouchi?

Even swapped out the princesses?

Although Emperor Tianzhu was still smiling kindly at Master Sanzang and his party at this moment, there was a slight coolness in his heart: Isn't this a warning to himself?

Thinking of this, Tianzhu Yellow Emperor felt bitter in his heart: Yes, Tianzhu was protected by the Lingshan Buddhist Gate, but I have always been unable to look at those Buddhist temples in the mortal world, and even once wanted to reform these Buddhist temples but it has always been difficult to implement.

If you want to restructure a Buddhist temple, how can it be so easy?

He put it aside for a while, but this thought never stopped.

Perhaps it is this idea that can never be let go of in my heart that makes my beloved daughter suffer this catastrophe: If you can steal your princess Tianzhu and change the pillars, no one knows, so who can see the flaws if you change an obedient emperor again?

After all, there is still a spiritual mountain on his head, even if he is the emperor, he can only be helpless about it.

It's not that he doesn't like Buddhism, and if he doesn't want to see the monks, if the monks in the country are like the three Tibetan masters, how can he have such an idea?

Therefore, after Master Sanzang defeated and conquered those Buddhist temples one by one within the borders of the country, he would applaud them from the bottom of his heart.

It's a pity that Master Sanzang is not a native of his country, but a senior monk from the Tang Dynasty.

I heard that he is still a monk in the Tang Dynasty or the world. Such a character is really worthy of being the first monk in the world.

People say that Buddhism is authentic in Tianzhu, but this emperor has never been impressed, and now he has seen Master Sanzang, and he sneers at the so-called authentic Buddhism.

But what can he do?

Now that his beloved daughter has returned, before he has the ability to change the status quo, he can only lie dormant for the time being.

After a while, the dishes were already ready, because he knew that Elder Zhu had a large amount of food, so his share was doubled The emperor will suppress the depression in his heart for the time being, and at this time he will concentrate on entertaining Master Sanzang.

In a short time, in some daily exchanges, everyone was already full.

Emperor Tianzhu wanted Master Sanzang to stay in the palace again, saying that it was a good thing to talk about Buddhism with Master Sanzang all night, and Fahai naturally would not refuse.

Although the Buddhism of Tianzhu Kingdom is prosperous, in Fahai's view. Even some eminent monks, their understanding of the Dharma is actually not profound, and even a little shallow.

Speaking of this, Fahai couldn't help but think of what the Bodhisattva said in Chang'an back then.

After he prepared to go up to Lingshan, he released the photo he recorded when he was debating the Buddha and the scriptures in front of the Buddha, the Buddhas, and all the Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the Daxiong Treasure Hall.

Let them take a good look. This is the Bodhisattva in the Tang Dynasty, in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, as well as the subjects of the people, boasted of the Xizhou Buddha realm.

Perhaps a large part of the reason why the Bodhisattva asked me to come here was to use the pressure brought by me to reverse the atmosphere of the Xizhou Buddhist Temple.

Xizhou is not without real monks, like the old master of Nabujin Monastery, in the eyes of Master Sanzang, he has obtained the Buddhist scriptures Samadhi. It's just that people's hearts are impetuous, and there are very few people who can really calm down to learn Buddhism, even after the young monks in the entire Bujin Temple, only the Zen monks under the main door of the old courtyard are hard-working As for others, the intentions are obviously not pure.

Otherwise, the old house owner would not lie that the princess was a ghost and a demon.

said that it was a long talk all night, and His Majesty the Emperor really talked with Master Sanzang for a whole night, if it wasn't for the time of the last dynasty. I'm afraid it's still far from stopping.

Your Majesty went to the court.

Fahai left the palace first and returned to the Huitong Hall.

Emperor Tianzhu gave himself a gold medal order, with this order, you can walk freely in the big house, and even the entire Tianzhu country, no one dares to stop you.

"Master is back!"

Yesterday during the day, after fasting, several disciples had already been released from the palace first.

It is rare to have a few idle great sages in this Tianzhu capital, and they played happily for a long time.

Bajie is still looking for local food, Wujing writes and paints, and the pen never stops As for the great sage and the little white dragon, the great sage went to the city god temple to play tricks, and the little white dragon went out of the city to wander in the surrounding mountains.

After nightfall, they rushed back to the inn and began to do evening classes.

Even Bajie is very conscious, and now they have already developed a habit of assigning tasks to themselves without the master's instructions and supervision.

At this moment, when they saw Master coming back, they all gathered around, and the Great Sage asked Master as a representative, "Master. How many words does the emperor have, is he really a Buddha who understands? How can I talk to Master all night? ”

"On top of the Dharma, this majesty can only be regarded as half-understood." Fahai shook his head, "This night, I said it was about Buddhism, but in fact, I didn't say much about the Communist Party. ”

"What did you say?" Bajie gave birth to curiosity.

"Emperor Tianzhu is a person who cares about the people." Fahai said softly: "He asked the teacher about the livelihood of the Tang Dynasty and what he had seen and heard in the countries along the way, and he also asked some people in Tianzhu and the towns outside the city about the real situation. ”

When the Great Sage and several other disciples heard this, they also said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, it is really rare to think that the people of this Tianzhu Kingdom can be more relaxed under his rule, right?" ”

"I hope so."

"Now that Master is back, are you going to leave?"

"I can't leave right now." Fahai sat on a chair, and when he saw that the disciples were puzzled, he didn't sell it, and explained directly: "The customs clearance document is still in the hands of this majesty, and he put it in the Tongzheng Hall yesterday, but now His Majesty has gone to the court again. And after he went down to court, he took the document and hurried again. ”

After the court.

Emperor Tianzhu took the customs clearance document and summoned his companion to send it to Master Sanzang.

Although this night's long talk was far from enough for him, it had already broadened his thinking, and compared to those ministers in the court, Emperor Tianzhu even felt that Master Sanzang was more suitable to stand there than them.

As soon as he went to the court, he was noisy and noisy, and he wanted to solve the problem at the court, not to mention whimsical, but also to ask for trouble.

Therefore, many times he made a decision directly and announced it directly at the court meeting, and if everyone had no opinion, then it would be done. If anyone has a different idea, they will be presented separately and will be discussed later.

Today, naturally, the same process is the same, and several old ministers and henchmen have been left behind.

"I haven't congratulated Your Majesty yet, the princess has returned safe and sound."

The rest of the courtiers also chimed in and said some auspicious words.

"Alright." The emperor waved his hand and said, "In the future, the palace will recruit some cultivators. Otomo. ”

"The old slave is here." The companion who had just kicked the customs clearance document hurriedly paused.

"You can do it."

"Yes." Otomo nodded, "Although he doesn't often go out of the palace, he can't stand the many disciples and grandchildren. There are also many eunuchs from all over the country looking for some cultivators, which is naturally not a difficult task. ”

But he had the audacity to say at this time: "Your Majesty, because Yuhuazhou has made a covenant with the seven lion kings, the old slave feels that he may be able to start from there. ”

Hearing this, the emperor nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Yes, I have a handwritten letter, and I will go to find Master Sanzang to explain this matter and ask Master Sanzang to also send a letter, saying that I want to invite a lion king to come to Da Nei to make an offering." ”

After saying this, the emperor thought for a while, and then pointed out: "I heard Master Sanzang mention that there is a great talent in the Central Plains Confucianism who is preaching and teaching in Xizhou, and you can also go to visit if you can invite Tianzhu to open a school palace, it is the best. If the gentleman refuses, you must not use force. ”

The emperor accompanies you with a word, and I have a word. But the faces of the following old ministers changed, and when they were about to say something, it was a younger courtier, whose steps were more neat, and he stood up first and asked His Majesty: "Your Majesty. Seeing that His Majesty frowned today, he could not stretch his brows. Could it be that there is something else difficult? The so-called lord worries about the humiliation of the ministers. I beg you to share your Majesty's worries. ”

"There really is something." The Emperor only told it as a joke, "but it was not a trouble. It's just that he is a little reluctant to let this Sanzang Master go. ”

Trouble is not troublesome, in fact, it is only in the emperor's thoughts, if the emperor does not force this, this is not a matter; If you really have to leave Master Sanzang behind, it is not something that can be described simply by the word "trouble".

The emperor said it casually, but when he saw another courtier come out, he said, "Your Majesty. The minister has a not-so-authentic method. ”

The emperor glared at him: "Since it's not authentic, there is no need to say it." ”

Then there was an old minister waiting for an opportunity to persuade: "Your Majesty. Let's listen first. ”

"Hmph, let's see what you have to say."

"Your Majesty, it's not authentic to say this, in fact, the key lies in the princess."

"That's it!" The emperor didn't wait for him to finish speaking, so he waved his hand directly, "You don't have to say it, this matter will end here, and go to the Huitong Pavilion to send the customs clearance documents." ”

"Yes."

The companion went straight out of the palace, all the way to the Huitong Hall, sent the customs clearance documents, and told His Majesty that he wanted to invite a lion king to do a great inner offering, and asked Master Sanzang to also send a letter.

Fahai naturally did not refuse, and even said: "In this case, the poor monk will stay for a few more days, and when the lion king comes, he can personally testify, so that both parties can rest assured." ”

At that time, the companion's expression changed slightly, but he didn't dare to say anything, just said thank you, and waited until Master Sanzang wrote it by hand, especially after a week of thanks, and then hurried back to the palace.

The courtiers in the palace had dispersed, but when they saw the princess in the palace, their eyes seemed to be full of tears to tell your majesty. But I don't know why it's like this.

Otomo listened to a few sentences, and then he understood.

It turned out that the princess wanted to marry Master Sanzang. Come and beg Your Majesty to think of a way.

But His Majesty said that Master Sanzang had obtained the customs clearance documents, and he was afraid that he would have already left at this time

Isn't it a coincidence to see what this is all about?

And so on. Is it married?

Not a pony yet?

Otomo looked at the princess in shock, and hesitated.
