The Jade Buddha Temple is a thousand-year-old temple.

In Yujing City, the incense is extremely vigorous.

It's just that it's snowing heavily today, and it's evening, and the pilgrims don't come much, and they've already returned, so the two vermilion gates on the brick-red wall of the Jade Buddha Temple are closed earlier than before.

Now.

On the wide square outside the vermilion gate, two Taoist priests came.

Qingfeng Old Daoist looked left and right, his face full of envy.

He stroked the two eight-character beards and said to his closed disciple Wuwei Little Taoist:

"Tut-tut, look, in this welcoming square, there are four King Kongs on the left and right!"

"If you look at this door again, it's half the height of our door!"

"Even the lanterns are much more than ours, and they are much brighter!"

"Well, the dragon elephant in front of the door ......"

"Mighty!"

"It is carved from white marble and inlaid with gold!"

"Extravagant!"

The little Taoist priest of Wuwei raised his head and suddenly asked: "Master, let's take out the inlaid gold and sell it, and maybe we can change it for some entanglement." ”

“…… Reasonable! ”

The old Taoist priest of Qingfeng flew up and landed on the head of the tall giant elephant, he was really in the middle of it, but after a moment he fell again.

"Whew!"

"Bald donkeys, they're all liars!"

The little Taoist priest of Wuwei looked puzzled, "What's wrong?" ”

"Fake! It's just brass! ”

"Well, if the disciple thinks that if it is real gold, I am afraid that he will have to send someone to guard it day and night."

Qingfeng Old Daoist glared at Wuwei Little Daoist, "Go, knock!" ”

The little Taoist priest of Wuwei walked over, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the knocker.

"Bang bang bang ......!"

He knocked on the knocker hard!

……

……

There is an independent elegant courtyard in the backyard of the Jade Buddha Temple.

Living in this small courtyard is the abbot of the Jade Buddha Temple, Master Pukong.

In a meditation room in this small courtyard, there is a stick of sandalwood and a wisp of tea fragrance.

Master Pukong sat in front of the tea table, picked up the pot of tea that had just been brewed, and poured a cup for the slightly chubby man sitting opposite.

"The autumn rhyme of the Yue Kingdom, although some seasons have passed, the hot and dry fire has faded, and the taste is more mellow."

"I just sent it today, Mr. Wen, please try it!"

He's warm boiled rain!

I'm afraid no one knows he's in this Jade Buddha Temple!

Wen Zhuan Yu took the teacup, squinted slightly and sniffed, and a fresh smell came to his nose.

"Good tea!"

"Familiar taste!"

He took a sip, the tea turned in his mouth, and when he swallowed it slowly, he felt that his mouth was full of fragrance.

He put down the teacup and said with a smile: "When I was in the Four Winds City, the imperial chef Master Huang personally prepared Jiuzhen foie gras, and one of the seasonings was this autumn rhyme. ”

"The autumn rhyme of the mountains, the annual output is not more than 100 catties, all of them are royal tributes, master, it seems that the Yue Emperor is still thinking about you!"

Master Pukong stroked his white beard and smiled slightly, "It's not from the emperor. ”

"Oh......? Let me guess...... The fourth prince Zhao Miao? ”

"Exactly, huh...... The matter of Yue Guo can't be hidden from Mr. 's eyes. ”

Wen Zhuyu pondered for a moment, "The master just drinks tea with peace of mind, the Yue Emperor is alive, the prince sits firmly in the East Palace, and the four princes send tea to you...... He's thinking too much. ”

Master Pukong poured another cup of tea for Wen Zhuyu, but his face became serious.

"Not necessarily!"

Wen Boilyu leaned over and looked at the red face of Master Pukong curiously, "I haven't been to Yue Guo for nearly ten years, and I haven't paid attention to Yue Guo's movements these days, what's the matter?" The four princes are still favored? ”

Pukong put down the teapot and sighed: "This thing is easy to say. ”

"Yue Guo Zen Buddhism was divided into two five hundred years ago, and it is now the two largest temples of Donglin Zen Temple and Xilin Zen Temple, this is what you know."

"In the past 100 years, the abbot of Donglin Zen Monastery has always been the protector of the Yue country, so the Donglin Zen Monastery has also been the state religion of the Yue country."

"Until thirty years ago, after the Xilin Monastery produced a nine-lamp monk, he defeated the abbot of the Donglin Monastery, the great monk, and won the title of the Great Master of the Protector in one fell swoop, and the Xilin Monastery became the orthodox state religion of the Yue Kingdom."

"Of course, the Nine Lights Monk supports the crown prince canonized by the emperor, all of which should have completed the inheritance of the throne in the near future, but ......"

"Wu Xichen ran to Yue and fought with the Nine Lights Monk."

Although Wu Xichen died in battle, the Nine Lights Monk was seriously injured by Wu Xichen's sword...... Wu Xichen did not use a second sword, but a sword that is said to be called donkey slashing. ”

"This sword is extremely sharp."

"This sword was left in the Yue Kingdom due to the death of Wu Xichen, and its forging process is extremely complicated, and it is said that this sword was sent to Tianyin Pavilion and handed over to Tong Fusheng, the sword-casting master of Tianyin Pavilion."

"The Nine Lights Monk was seriously injured, and the suppression of the Donglin Zen Temple by the Xilin Zen Temple no longer existed...... The closed disciple of the Nine Lights Monk did not read the Dharma number, he was sent by the Nine Lights Monk to Wu to send Wu Xichen's ashes back to the country, and during that time, the Donglin Zen Monastery launched a huge attack on the Xilin Zen Monastery! ”

"More than 300 monks from Xilin Monastery died in that battle!"

"The contemporary abbot of Donglin Zen Monastery has annexed Xilin Zen Monastery, and the East and West Zen Monastery are now collectively called Zen Buddhism again, and have been given a golden disc by the emperor to become the only state religion."

"But there is no harmony between the great monk and the crown prince."

"You know that the inheritance of the throne of the Yue Kingdom is not only an edict of succession, but also needs to be baptized by the Grand Master of the State Religion Protector."

"Now the four princes ask someone to send tea to the old man, and the taste is long!"

Wen Zhuyu listened carefully, frowned slightly, and asked: "Emperor Yue is not old and faint, how can he allow the two Zen temples to kill each other?" ”

"Your Majesty, he has been sick in bed for more than two months!"

Wen Zhuyu was shocked and sat up straight, "So I ask you to entrust the letter to the Yue Emperor, and ask the Yue State to send troops to Xigu City to put pressure on Ning Guo and help Li Chenan successfully ascend the throne as the emperor...... Now the situation in Ningguo is clear, but those soldiers have not withdrawn, they are the soldiers of the four princes? ”

"They are still stationed in Xigu City, and their intention is not to point their swords at Ningguo, but ...... Heading towards the Four Winds City of Kyoto? ”

Master Pukong nodded, "This is exactly what the prince is worried about, so the prince also asked the old man to see you." ”

"See me?"

"After all, Mr. used to be the prince's husband, and now the prince is facing this crisis, and the prince wants to ask Mr. to go to Yue Guo to help the prince."

"The prince promised that when he ascended the throne as the emperor, he would worship you as the prime minister!"

Wen Zhuyu groaned for a moment and shook his head.

"Why did the gentleman refuse?"

"Because this guy Li Chenan is leaving, my senior brother Xi Wei took so many twists and turns to create such a good situation for Li Chenan."

"You don't know my senior brother, I can't beat him!"

"So I've been avoiding him."

"But now I'm afraid I can't hide, he will make up his mind to find me and let me help Li Chenan watch this country!"

Master Pukong's eyebrows frowned slightly, "Since Xi Wei has such a great talent, why doesn't he come out of the mountain?" ”

Wen Boiled Yu laughed and picked up the teacup, "Because he wants to be a and a son, but also set up an archway!" ”

“…… If Mr. goes to Yue Guo, won't he be able to avoid him completely? ”

"Can't hide...... As for the matter of transgressing the country, I think you can send someone to find another person. ”

"Who?"

"He Xishan!"

Master Pukong was taken aback, "The Great Monk of Annihilation? ”

"Yes! He Xishan was originally the senior brother of the great monk of Tranquility, but he didn't want to be a monk so he came to Ningguo. I was afraid of breaking the color ring, so I swung a knife from the palace into the palace and became a eunuch. ”

"He's a ruthless person too!"

"Now...... He is both a eunuch and a monk, isn't there anything wrong with this idle bird? ”

"Ask him to go back to Yueguo, and if you want to come to Yueguo, this can be solved!"

Master Pukong pondered for a moment: "Where can I find him?" ”

"Shuzhou, Yinping County, Xishan, Jishan Temple."

"Thank you, sir!"

At this moment, a little monk ran in like a fly, panting and said:

"Master, there are two Taoist priests outside!"

"Daoist? What's so alarming about this? ”

“…… Master, these two Taoist priests are so unreasonable, they, they have to ask us to stew a pot of dog meat for them! ”
