Chapter 248: The Real Master Xuanzang in History

"If you want to talk about the relationship between Master Xuanzang and my Shaolin, it's a long story......

In the first month of the nineteenth year of Zhenguan, Xuanzang arrived in Chang'an. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Taizong had been stationed in Luoyang for the Liaodong Campaign.

When Taizong learned of his return to China, he immediately ordered him to be received in Luoyang.

Xuanzang hurriedly went on the road, set off on the 22nd of the same month, and was received by Taizong on the first day of February in the Yiluan Hall of Luoyang Palace.

Taizong was deeply pleased, and sat down with Xuanzang and asked: "Why didn't the master report to the court when he went west to learn the scriptures", Xuanzang said: "When Xuanzang went, he played it again and again. But I sincerely hope that the court will not be allowed. The ultimate in catechumenism is a private act. The sin of despotism is only deeply feared. ”

Taizong listened to it and asked Master Xuanzang to translate the scriptures.

Master Xuanzang originally intended for me Shaolin!

As mentioned earlier, Master Xuanzang is a person from Zhengzhou, a monk and a monk in the eastern capital of Luoyang, not far from Shaolin, when Shaolin has been rebuilt with the support of Emperor Taizong Daxing, it can also be regarded as a famous temple in the world, Master Xuanzang translated scriptures in Shaolin, and it is also close to his hometown, both public and private.

It's a pity that Taizong is unwilling.

Master Xuanzang had no choice but to return to Chang'an from Luoyang on the first day of March, and finally translated the scriptures in the capital Daci'en Temple for life.

Subsequently, Gaozong Dynasty, Master Xuanzang reminded the old story, hoping to return to his hometown Shaolin Temple to translate the scriptures, 'now it is known that there is Shaolin Temple in the north of Shaolin Mountain in the south of Songshan Mountain, far away from the fall, the spring stone is idle, it was built by Emperor Xiaowen of the Later Wei Dynasty, that is, the translation office of the three Tibetan scriptures of the Bodhi Liuzhi Branch. Xuanzang wanted to translate for the country and listen to the edict. ’

Rejected again.

In the second year of Xianqing, Xuanzang once again proposed to 'look at the bones of beggars, live in the mountains and forests, and recite scriptures to answer the rewards. ’

Rejected three times.

Three requests, three rejections, this is the origin of Master Xuanzang and my Shaolin. ”

After Yang Fenglou heard this, his face was feverish.

originally thought that starring in "Farewell to Shaqiao" would be able to use the name of His Majesty Emperor Taizong Daxing to make a name for Shaolin and even Buddhism in the world, but I didn't expect that the real history would be like this.

What a royal brother!

What a monarch and a minister get along!

It's all!

What shocked Yang Fenglou even more was still behind.

Master Benxin glanced at Yang Fenglou deeply and said:

"Master Yang, do you know that His Majesty Emperor Taizong Daxing has persuaded Master Xuanzang many times to return to the world?"

"What!?What are you talking about!?" Yang Fenglou was really frightened this time, "Why!?"

"The Legend of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty!"

Hearing this answer, Yang Fenglou suddenly stopped talking, after all, he was in the officialdom, and he was engaged in all kinds of espionage work, and most of the people he came into contact with were intrigues and deceit, and he was the best at speculating on things with the greatest malice, and now, Master Benxin was just the beginning, and he basically figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

"The Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" was written in the 20th year of Zhenguan, which was dictated by Master Xuanzang and recorded by his disciple Bianji, which comprehensively recorded what he saw and heard during his 19 years of westward travel, including: the situation of 110 cities, regions and countries experienced by Xuanzang west of Gaochang and more than 28 cities, regions and countries known by rumors, including the size of these places, geographical situation, agriculture, commerce, customs, literature and art, language, writing, currency, kings, religion and so on

Take a look at the route he walked: on the way through Lanzhou to Liangzhou, followed by day and night, to Guazhou, then through Yumen Pass, over Wufeng, crossing quicksand, preparing for hardships, arriving at Yiwu, to Gaochang country. Later, it passed through Quzhi, Lingshan, Broken Leaf City, Jiabi Trial State, Chi Jianguo, Sa Mo Jianguo, Green Ridge, and Tiemen. Arrive at the homeland of the country. Go south through the country of Bondage, the country of Jiezhi, the Great Snow Mountain, the country of Brahmana, the country of Gandhara (, the country of Uvona, and arrive at the country of Kashmira!).

Think about the form of the Tang Dynasty at that time: Taizong's Eastern Crusade was not completed, but he also firmly controlled Goryeo north of the Yalu River.

At that time, the Buddha sent him a master Xuanzang who traveled thousands of miles to the west, Emperor Taizong would not let him go no matter what, if he invited Master Xuanzang to return to the vulgar, immediately high-ranking officials had to ride on horses, in order to, isn't it that Master Xuanzang is familiar with the geography of the mountains and rivers along the way, customs and customs, if he sends troops to the Western Regions, he will definitely have a great help!

Even go a little deeper, did Master Xuanzang leave "The Legend of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" to leave his name in history, or to deal with Emperor Taizong's various requirements for returning to the world?

Master Xuanzang traveled thousands of miles west, in order to seek scriptures, but returned to Chang'an, did not translate Buddhist scriptures, but wrote his memoirs of his westward journey for the first time?

This thing doesn't make sense at all.

Zhenguan arrived in Chang'an in the nineteenth year, and Zhenguan wrote the book "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" in the twentieth year, and only one year to write twelve volumes.

You know, there were still more than 600 scriptures in his hands that had not been translated!

Yang Fenglou suddenly shivered.

Can't think about it anymore!

Forced to put down all kinds of speculations in his heart, Yang Fenglou looked up, and saw the face of the master of Ben Xin who seemed to be smiling, and suddenly realized that the master of this letter had his psychic powers, Yang Fenglou couldn't help but say with some embarrassment:

"Master, Yang did something wrong in this matter.

A few days ago, I was shocked by your Buddhist lion's roar, Yang was a young man, and he wanted to take revenge, and when he chose the repertoire, he thought of such a "Farewell to Shaqiao", and I wanted to borrow the name of Taizong and Master Xuanzang, on the one hand, to make Shaolin famous, but also to cause you some trouble......

I thought it was harmless, but I didn't want this play to be too far from history, it was really ...... It's really ...... I don't know how big of a trouble this is......"

Yang Fenglou said and spoke, since he became incoherent, he really didn't know what to say.

Unexpectedly, Master Benxin smiled.

"Master Yang, what you want and think in your heart, the poor monk already understands, and the poor monk also believes that although you did it intentionally, you don't know the various joints...... That's it, cause and effect, cause and effect, although the cause will inevitably get the effect, but it is not good to say whether it is a good effect or a bad effect, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to say more...... But Lord Yang doesn't have to worry too much, maybe things will develop in a good direction......"

Yang Fenglou listened, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to bow deeply.

To put it mildly, to indulge in his own misdeeds, this letter is the real great virtue and high monk.

This ceremony, Yang Fenglou bowed sincerely.

Master Benshin laughed.

Unexpectedly, after Yang Fenglou thanked him, he just got up, but he became a hippie smile again.

"Master Benxin, since Yang has made a mistake, he naturally wants to remedy it, judging from the current situation, it is better to make a mistake, Yang is not talented, but there is still a good set of stage plays, just after "Farewell to Shaqiao", it will inevitably become ......famous for Shaolin."

When Master Benshin heard this, he was about to cry, but he didn't think it was a big enough trouble? )
