ββChapter 363: It's Set! Just worship Xu Fenglei as handsome! Xuanzang visited, and the mage demeanor
ββ"Guanyin, you're so smart!"
ββLi Shimin praised it in his mouth, and pounced on his wife, but he pounced.
ββBut seeing the eldest grandson Wujian dodging flexibly, he said:
ββ"What am I talking about? Don't be frivolous. β
ββ"Beware of hurting the child."
ββ"Yes, yes......" Li Shimin nodded again and again, withdrew his hand curtly, and said with a smile, "I forgot about my excitement." β
ββHe paused slightly, and said approvingly:
ββ"Your idea sounds bold at first glance, but when you think about it, it's very operational."
ββ"I recognize Ming's ability, although he is good at scheming, but he has also made achievements in military affairs, and it may not be possible to lead troops in real battles, but in terms of military strategy and tactics, it is completely comparable to Li Jing and them!"
ββ"I worship and listen to Ming as the commander, with Li Jing and Li Ji as the deputy commander, the three of them cooperate with each other, and they will definitely be able to achieve results!"
ββThe eldest grandson nodded.
ββ"Yes, he has always been reliable, and he can't be wrong with him."
ββShe said,
ββ"In fact, there is another point, compared to Li Jing and Li Ji, Tingming is always the person we trust more."
ββ"After getting along for all these years, we also know his character, even if he has military merits and glory, he will never be impetuous, and there is no one in his eyes."
ββ"This monstrous battle feats have been won by him, Erfeng, you can have no worries."
ββLi Shimin showed a look of approval.
ββ"Indeed, this kid is the most reassuring to me! Although there are some regrets about him not marrying or not marrying, from another aspect, such a person with no family and no power can control the power more reassuringly, isn't it? β
ββHe bowed his head and said,
ββ"I had a plan when I made the prince."
ββ"Hearing this person, I want to take a good look at it, if he is still so reassuring to me before the day of my funeral, then I will hand over the burden of protecting the country to him!"
ββThe burden of protecting the country!
ββThese four words are heavier and more authoritative than "entrusting orphans and heavy ministers"!
ββIt is precisely because of the huge power that even if he already trusts Xu Fenglei very much, he still has to look at it again and grind it again. If you look at it, it may be ten or twenty years.
ββIf something happens in the middle, he will change his mind.
ββThere is no way, this burden must be handed over to a courtier who absolutely trusts! If there is no suitable candidate, he will choose not to pay!
ββ"Okay, okay, don't talk so far......"
ββThe eldest grandson pulled the topic back and said with a smile,
ββ"In that case, let's finalize Bai Tingming as handsome first?"
ββ"If so, I'm afraid there will be an uproar in the court! Even if he heard about himself, he would probably be shocked and resign desperately. β
ββShe could imagine the expressions of the ministers at this moment.
ββ"Hmph, there are definitely waves, but what I decided is absolutely unchangeable."
ββLi Shimin snorted lightly,
ββ"If you want this job, if you want me to give it, I can't quit!"
ββ"That's how domineering!"
ββHe paused slightly, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and smiled:
ββ"Hey, Guanyin, look at you, you still have a way, I really can't do without you!"
ββ"You say, can Concubine Yang have such an opinion as you? She knows all day long that she is tinkering with those rouge gouaches! There are other concubines, can they give me such a trick to make me feel comfortable? β
ββ"No one can! Only you wow! β
ββ"So, you can't drive me away, I've been worrying a lot lately! I need you......"
ββWhen the eldest grandson heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
ββYes, Saphor is on it!
ββ"I'm not driving you away, isn't this pregnant with a child......"
ββShe pinched Li Erda's crotch and pouted,
ββ"You are irritable and always want to make trouble, so it is better to go to other concubines."
ββ"I'm weak and can't stand your toss, and ah, I heard that I can't conceive a child anymore, and I'll lose my life."
ββ"Even though I don't care about my lifespan, I always want to spend more time with you, and I want to watch my children grow up and marry my own children......"
ββLi Shimin's expression was solemn.
ββ"Don't worry, I, Li Shimin, still have this bit of restraint."
ββHe looked serious and assured,
ββ"In the future, strictly follow the instructions of Tingming and Sun Zhenren, they will not allow it, I will never move a finger of you!"
ββ"Actually...... The physical pleasure is only temporary, and after a while, it will be boring, but the spiritual resonance is eternal, and it can make you and me love and enjoy forever. β
ββ"I think we're spiritual partners, right? Guanyin. β
ββThe eldest grandson was suspicious.
ββ"You say this like after some kind of pleasure."
ββShe said.
ββLi Shimin glared: "#Β₯%......&*@!! β
βββ¦β¦
ββAt noon the next day, the Duke of Xu's mansion.
ββSwish.
ββXu Fenglei's eyes opened and he jumped up from the bed.
ββHe rested today, so he could sleep until noon and get up to eat lunch.
ββ"Ho-ah!"
ββSpit out a mouthful of sticky phlegm, and there was already a sound outside the house.
ββ"Are you awake, sir?"
ββA maid in a goose yellow gauze skirt pushed the door in, with a sweet smile, and took civilian clothes for Xu Fenglei and put them on for him.
ββA few coarsely clothed maidservants also walked in and offered him copper basins and towels.
ββThere is no need to move, the maids have already served him clearly, washing his face, brushing his teeth, and dressing.
ββThe daily life of a prince is so unpretentious and boring.
ββ"Poof."
ββXu Fenglei spit out the salt water in his mouth and said casually,
ββ"I'm a little hungry, what are you going to eat today?"
ββThe maid in yellow replied:
ββ"There are cabbage beef, celery shredded meat, and the fresh-cut mutton was sent by the proprietress in the West Market early in the morning, and the lamb meat has no fishy smell."
ββ"There is also a bowl of pigeon soup, which is also a pigeon just shot this morning, and the meat is very tender."
ββThree dishes and one soup, all meat dishes.
ββEven if it is supplied to the national government, it can be called good.
ββ"Beef? Which cow fell to his death? β
ββXu Fenglei quipped,
ββ"According to Tang law, it is illegal to kill a ploughing cow privately."
ββThe maid in yellow grinned.
ββ"As long as you want to eat, you can eat enough cows that fall to death."
ββShe quipped,
ββ"If you want to eat every day, we can arrange for a herd of cattle to line up and jump off the cliff and die."
ββ"Hahaha......" Xu Fenglei laughed and waved his hand, "Don't say goodbye, ploughing cattle is precious, and in the future, we will do less cabbage beef, when will we occupy the Turkic steppe and bring the yaks on the grassland to taste, then it will be called beauty." β
ββEven though the plate of beef was bought from a regular channel, he couldn't bear it.
ββThe locust plague and drought have not yet passed, and the victims have not yet landed their next meal.
ββIn the year of the catastrophe, it was excessive.
ββ"Yes."
ββThe maid in yellow nodded obediently and said,
ββ"In fact, those old farmers are very grateful when they sell their cattle, and our government buys cattle at a much higher price than the market price, and they never lower the price."
ββ"If we don't buy it, those black merchants will also buy it, and when the price is lowered, the farmers will suffer even more."
ββXu Fenglei was stunned.
ββThis, too.
ββThe so-called no killing, no buying and selling, is pure deception.
ββThe market is always there, if you don't buy it, people will buy it at a low price, and in the end it will be the old farmers who are forced to sell their cattle who will suffer.
ββ"Okay then."
ββHe laughed,
ββ"Then we still want to eat and buy it, don't have a psychological burden, and respect the laws of the market."
ββWith that, Xu Fenglei got up and walked to the courtyard.
ββA few maidservants stepped forward and put three dishes and one soup on the stone table, as well as a bowl of fragrant wheat rice.
ββ"Sir, let's use the soup first."
ββThe maid in yellow scooped a bowl of pigeon soup, sent it to Xu Fenglei, and said softly,
ββ"Appetizer."
ββ"Hmm." Xu Fenglei sniffed and praised, "Fragrant." β
ββGrunt.
ββGently swallow a mouthful of pigeon soup, and your lips and teeth are already fragrant.
ββJust as he was about to cook, suddenly a small guy ran quickly and entered the yard to report:
ββ"Master, Master Xuanzang, who came to visit you yesterday, is here again today."
ββ"I'm just waiting outside now, why don't you call him in after you've finished your meal?"
ββXu Fenglei raised his eyebrows slightly.
ββ"Xuanzang, ......"
ββHe laughed,
ββ"It's okay, you just call him in now, and it's okay to talk while you eat."
ββ"Yes." The little guy got the order and turned to leave.
ββ"Master Xuanzang?"
ββThe maid in yellow said with some doubts,
ββ"Sir, when did you have a relationship with the monk?"
ββXu Fenglei smiled and said nothing, eating and chewing meat by himself.
ββ"This cabbage beef is good, it's quite tender."
ββHe praised two sentences and immediately took two large mouthfuls of rice.
ββDa-da, da-da.
ββThe food was fragrant, and a gentle footstep came.
ββ"Amitabha."
ββA soft and calm voice came, but I saw that Master Xuanzang was dressed in plain clothes, with a big bald head, and saluted Xu Fenglei,
ββ"Master, the little monk is polite."
ββThe maid in yellow looked at the monk in front of her, and her eyes couldn't help but light up.
ββThis monk ...... So handsome!
ββ"It's Xuanzang, come, sit."
ββXu Fenglei smiled and beckoned,
ββ"Have you eaten?"
ββXuanzang clasped his hands together and shook his head.
ββ"The little monk drank a bowl of porridge early in the morning and went out of the temple, all the way to Chang'an, and he had not eaten."
ββHe responded honestly,
ββ"So...... The little monk still has to be cheeky and turn his fate to the master. β
ββWhen Xu Fenglei heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
ββ"Hahahaha, it's easy to say."
ββHe pointed to the food in front of him and said,
ββ"What do you think of these dishes?"
ββXuanzang's gaze fell on the stone table.
ββThe cooks in Xu Guogong's Mansion were also trained and brought out from Tiance Mansion, in other words, the level of the chefs in his mansion is not much better than that of the imperial chef.
ββJust smelling the fragrance can stimulate people's saliva secretion and intestinal peristalsis.
ββ"It's all delicious."
ββXuanzang responded.
ββ"Okay, then let's ask the mage to join me for a light meal."
ββXu Fenglei waved his hand and said,
ββ"There are so many dishes, I can't eat them all by myself."
ββ"Come on, come on, quickly add a pair of chopsticks to Master Xuanzang and hold a bowl of rice!"
ββThe maid in yellow was slightly stunned.
ββ"Uh...... Mr. β
ββShe said tentatively,
ββ"Isn't this monk a vegetarian? This table is full of meaty ......"
ββ"Do you want to make a few separate dishes for Master Xuanzang?"
ββIn her opinion, this handsome monk should know her husband even if he is not friends, and he must be entertained well.
ββAt the very least, you can't make things difficult for others.
ββ"Oh, what's this?"
ββXu Fenglei waved his hand and said,
ββ"The so-called wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in his heart!"
ββ"The Buddha said that meat is fishy, it is a name for meat, but it is not meaty, if you are so rigid in the rules and precepts, it is a phase."
ββ"Master Xuanzang, did you say?"
ββMaid in Yellow: "......"
ββIt seems that Mr. is trying to make things difficult for this monk!
ββShe looked at Xuanzang with a curious expression, and at this moment she really wanted to know how this monk would respond to such a situation.
ββ"Taishi's sentence 'wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in his heart', has the realm of an arhat."
ββBut seeing that Xuanzang was not irritated or annoyed, he smiled lightly,
ββ"An arhat, eat the wine and spit out the grain; Eat meat; Change out of life. Naturally, you can wear wine and meat through the intestines, which is also a meritorious mile. β
ββ"The little monk is far from this realm, so naturally he doesn't dare to break the vows recklessly, otherwise, he will fall into the devil's way."
ββThe corners of Xu Fenglei's mouth rose.
ββXuanzang deserves to be Xuanzang, this head is fast!
ββ"Listening to what the Master said, you seem to have studied the Diamond Sutra quite a bit."
ββAnd he said,
ββ"Your words are similar to those of the Diamond Sutra, 'The Buddha said Prajnaparami, that is, it is not Prajnaparamita, it is called Prajnaparami.'" It's no different. The idea is to let people who study Buddhism not be obsessed with appearances. You can't get carried away when you feel that you have made some progress, you must know that all appearances are false, and seeing what is not the same is what you see. β
ββ"However, the key to these sixteen words is actually the first sentence."
ββ"All appearances, these two words, represent experience, represent opinions, when a Buddhist disciple has a very high Buddhist insight, he has obstacles, he needs to break through delusion."
ββ"Otherwise, fantasy is delusional, why bother to break it? If you haven't seen any of them, how can you make them non-phases? Not to mention seeing that it is coming. β
ββXu Fenglei bowed his head slightly and straightened his body.
ββThe slaves and maids around him were all attentive.
ββThe master lectures on the scriptures, even if they don't understand it, they will feel that they have some insights and gains.
ββ"The mage is right, but I am sophistry."
ββXu Fenglei said approvingly,
ββ"As the Taishang Laojun said in the "Changqing Jingjing" said, 'If you have entered the truth, you are called the Tao; Although the name is right, there is nothing to gain; In order to transform sentient beings, it is called enlightenment; Those who can understand can preach the holy word. All the same, there are similarities between the two. β
ββXuanzang chewed the scriptures, his eyes lit up, and he nodded.
ββ"Yes, yes."
ββHis smile grew gentle,
ββ"The meaning is the same, it seems that the Taishi is not only proficient in Buddhism, but also has a deep understanding of the essence of Taoism."
ββXu Fenglei was happy and waved his hand.
ββ"I just know a little bit about the skin, I can't compare with a mage."
ββHe said modestly, and commanded,
ββ"Come, go and prepare a meal for the mage, and you won't see the slightest bit of meat."
ββ"Yes." The maid in yellow grinned.
ββAlthough this handsome monk is very powerful, our husband is also very good! Talking to each other about the Tao of the Mystery will not fall behind at all!
ββ"No need."
ββThe maidservant was about to leave, but Xuanzang shook her head and said,
ββ"Turning fate into fate, whatever the donor gives the little monk to eat, it's all fate."
ββ"Whether it's vegetarian or meaty, the little monk is already grateful if he can turn into a fate, how dare he be picky in the slightest?"
ββ"Give the little monk rice, and the little monk can eat; Give the little monk a mountain and sea delicacies, and the little monk can also eat it; The Buddha has no discriminating heart, and the little monk has no discriminating heart, only a grateful heart to the benefactor. β
ββ"This female benefactor, just add a pair of chopsticks and a bowl of rice to the little monk."
ββWhen Xu Fenglei heard this, he couldn't help but be in awe.
ββ"The Venerable Master is a true disciple of the Buddha."
ββHe said,
ββ"Xiao Huang, go and serve food to the mage, the mage has worked hard all the way, he must be hungry, you can compact the rice a little."
