Chapter Seventy-Five: Xuanzang's Life Experience
However, it is said that when Tang Gaozu Li Yuan was alive, there was a new champion Chen Guangrui, who was named on the gold list and appreciated by His Majesty.
Soon after this Chen Guangrui was in high school, when he was marching on the street, he was hit by a woman's hydrangea, this woman's name is Yin Wenjiao, she looks like a shy flower in the closed moon, and she sinks into the shape of a fish and a goose.
However, after visiting the church in a daze, Chen Guangrui felt that something was wrong.
Why?
This woman is actually the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty, and she should be worthy of the emperor's relatives and relatives, how can there be such a move of throwing hydrangeas? If she is received by a scoundrel in the market, and she does not choose a good day and an auspicious day, and does not fulfill the wedding ceremony, she directly pulls her door to marry on the same day, this is too hasty, right?
The mystery of all this was not solved until the night of the candle in the cave room.
Yin Wenjiao's snow-white lower abdomen was obviously bulging, and she was actually pregnant! If it was an ordinary person, under the power of the prime minister, maybe he would swallow his anger. But Chen Guangrui was the champion when he was engraved and the title of the gold list was in high spirits, how could he endure this kind of cuckolding?
That night, Chen Guangrui was about to leave in a bad mood, but was stopped by the Prime Minister's family layer by layer, until the prime minister personally told Yin Wenjiao who the son in the womb belonged to.
Later, Chen Guangrui really didn't care anymore, and even received the emperor's order to take his beautiful wife to Jiangzhou to take office. The prime minister was still unable to deter the new champion, but he was deterred by the father of Yin Wenjiao's son, which can be imagined.
Chen Guangrui's face was full of spring breeze, fantasizing about his good future, but his mother fell ill halfway. In order to fulfill his filial piety, Chen Guangrui bought a fish and wanted to stew it for his mother to replenish her body.
After about ten days of back and forth, Chen Guangrui had to say goodbye to his mother and go on the road and rent a boat to cross the river. But I didn't want two thieves on the boat, killed Chen Guangrui, and even beat Chen Guangrui to death!
"Chen Guangrui, you are so bold, you dare to coerce the saint and beat me to death" That's right, the little guy was cut with a knife, Chen Guangrui was not so easy, he was beaten to death, there is no deep hatred, who has a knife and doesn't have to kill people?
Seeing that Xianggong was killed, he was thrown into the river. Yin Wenjiao, who felt quite sorry for her husband, was about to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, but she didn't want to be pulled by one of the thieves, Liu Hong: "If you obey me, everything will stop;
Yin Wenjiao heard it, she wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, but how could she be afraid that she would be hacked to death again? Obviously, Liu Hong came here under the instructions of others, and he was also the biological father of the child in Yin Wenjiao's womb! If she didn't go with Liu Hong obediently, the child's father would have to cut Yin Wenjiao in two, and it would never matter again.
Liu Hong, who killed Chen Guangrui and took Yin Wenjiao, gave all the money to another thief, but he took Chen Guangrui's official seal and official uniform and went to become an official. Let's say that a thief, if he has no backing, how dare he be so rampant, kill someone and not hide, but want to be an official?
And at this time, Yin Wenjiao already knew the child in her womb, but she didn't know the men and women. This obviously proves that the son in the womb has nothing to do with Chen Guangrui, only more than ten days after being married, Yin Wenjiao knew that she was pregnant, and those who had studied the menstrual period knew that it was impossible.
When she arrived in Jiangzhou, Yin Wenjiao gave birth to a little Tang monk in three months. So when she married Chen Guangrui, she was pregnant for five months, and Tang Seng once said when he met the king of Wuji Kingdom, "At that time, my father was injured by water thieves, and my mother was bullied by water thieves, and after three months, she gave birth to me." ”
It can be seen that Chen Guangrui wears a green hat until he dies, and Tang Seng has nothing to do with him.
As soon as Tang Seng was born, Liu Hong was going to drown him, which was Tang Seng's father's order. It's just that Yin Wenjiao is a mother for the first time, and she is reluctant to give up and protect each other desperately. Think about it, Liu Hong didn't dare to offend Yin Wenjiao, and he was afraid that Tang Seng's father would unload the mill and kill the donkey, what should he do if he turned around and slaughtered himself?
Liu Hong let Tang Seng go first, and organized his own forces to avoid being regarded as an outcast in the future.
Until the full moon, Liu Hong and Yin Wenjiao were repeatedly urged by Tang Seng's father to kill this son to avoid becoming the laughing stock of the world. Yin Wenjiao wrote a bloody letter, preparing to throw the little Tang monk into the river and drown.
At this time, there happened to be a raft floating by the river, and Yin Wenjiao reluctantly put Tang Seng on the raft and floated away along the river.
It just so happened that at this time, the monk of Jinshan Temple found the clue and rescued the little Tang monk. After seeing the blood book, there is no doubt that the monk of Jinshan Temple reported to the official.
Yin Wenjiao naturally would not be stupid enough to mention Tang Seng's father, and only said that Liu Hong was a murderer. When a normal person picks up such a child and sees the content of the blood book, he naturally reports to the official.
How do you think that after reporting to the official, the matter gradually subsided, and the old monk of Jinshan Temple was directly driven out by the government, and in desperation, he had to raise the child by himself.
But said that Liu Hong, who has been an official in Jiangzhou for 18 years, has neither been promoted nor demoted, wouldn't it be strange if he didn't have a backer?
He is really good to Yin Wenjiao, responds to requests, and has been in love for a long time, and the two have become a real husband and wife. At this time, Tang Seng's own father had already passed away, how could he manage this?
It wasn't until Tang Seng became an adult and asked the old monk about his biological parents that the old monk showed him the blood book.
With the blood book, Tang Seng found Yin Wenjiao, until after confirming Tang Seng's identity, Yin Wenjiao's reaction was "surprised"! Obviously, she knew that the good days with Liu Hong had come to an end, if Tang Seng's true identity was revealed, not only would she die, Tang Seng would die, and even her parents would be implicated!
In desperation, Yin Wenjiao repaired a letter and asked Tang Seng to hand it over to his father. At this time, the reigning emperor was no longer Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, but his son Li Shimin.
The prime minister directly told Li Shimin about Tang Seng's origin and biological father, and Li Shimin immediately ordered to send 60,000 imperial forest troops to arrest Liu Hong, not mistaken, it was 60,000!
Who the hell is it for? 60,000 Imperial Guards are needed!
Before Li Shimin ascended the throne, he killed his brother and killed his brother, and over the years, after all, he felt a little guilty and never enjoyed brotherly love. Later, Liu Hong was killed by Tang monks, and Chen Guangrui was also resurrected on this day. It turned out that the fish that Chen Guangrui put before was actually the dragon king in the river, he took away Chen Guangrui's body, and resurrected it today, so that Tang Seng and his family could be reunited.
On the day of the reunion, Yin Wenjiao hanged herself to death, and Chen Guangrui was also sad, saying that there should be no Tang Seng as a child.
Let's talk about Li Shimin. He once promised the Jinghe Dragon King that Wei Zheng would not cut off its head, but he didn't want Wei Zheng to behead the Jinghe Dragon King in a dream. It's strange to say that after the death of the Dragon King of Jinghe, he didn't enter the underworld, and he didn't bet on the Yin Division, and his soul was able to come out of the Yin Division and entangle Li Shimin night and night.
What's even more strange is that after Li Shimin's death, both the prefectural judge and the Ten Palaces Yama were polite to him, and the judge even changed the book of life and death and added 20 years of life to Li Shimin without authorization. Even if Wei Zheng wrote a letter to the judge, how could a mere mortal have such a big face?
And along the way to Huangquan, Li Shimin can see evil ghosts everywhere, these evil ghosts who have not been imprisoned are all enemies with themselves, and the suspicious thing is that the ghosts took him to a place where there are ghosts!
Until in the end, by mistake, the ghost sent Li Shimin to tell Li Shimin that he was going to hold a water and land conference of the Buddha Gate to surpass the souls of the dead! You must know that the judges of the underworld and Yama are all institutions of the heavenly court, belong to Taoism, and have nothing to do with Buddhism, so how could they think of letting Li Shimin run a water and land conference? Could it be that the Taoist scriptures can't transcend the souls?
And all of this started after Guanyin Bodhisattva came to Chang'an and lived in the Land Temple.
The Buddha once held the Menglan Bon Festival in the West Heaven, saying that the people of Dongsheng Shenzhou respected heaven and earth, but did not believe in Buddha. Although there is killing in Luzhou in the north, it is only to fill the stomach and is not considered to be evil; in Xiniuhezhou, the base camp of Buddhism, everyone is not greedy or killed, but is a model for the human race; in the south, there is a lot of right and wrong in the south of the continent, greed and schadenfreude, brutality and tyranny.
Anyway, those who believe in Buddhism are good people, so we should let the four major states believe in Buddhism. In the hands of the Buddha, there are three canons of the true scriptures, a total of 15,144 volumes, but this sutra has no market, and must be transmitted in large quantities.
Dongsheng Shenzhou has the largest population and is also the richest, so it is a good place to pass on the scriptures. The Buddha asked the Heavenly Arhat Bodhisattva and the Venerable Buddha who was willing to preach the scriptures, but no one responded, only Guanyin Bodhisattva stood up: "The disciple is willing to go and find a person to learn the scriptures for my Buddha." ”
Seeing Guanyin's self-recommendation, the Buddha was immediately overjoyed and said: "You can't go anywhere else, you have to get the Venerable Guanyin, and you can only get it." ”
Why can Guanyin go?
That is Guanyin's vast powers, scheming, and really capable people can do this, and others may not be able to do it.
It can be seen that whether it is the Jinghe Dragon King disturbing Li Shimin at night, or the strange appearance of the underworld judge Yan Luo, it is Guanyin who is manipulating it behind his back. Of course, the most important Tang Seng must not forget that his life experience is handled by Master Guanyin, why is it so bizarre, it is natural to force Tang Seng to comply.
Imagine if Tang Seng's grandfather was the prime minister and his father was the champion, why would he have to work tirelessly to learn the scriptures? Not long after Tang Seng killed Liu Hong, there was a dream of the land and the god of the stove, saying that Liu Hong was Tang Seng's biological father, and listing all kinds of visions.
Although Tang Seng was not born to Liu Hong, imagine that his mother was willing to be with Liu Hong, and even committed suicide afterwards, and Tang Seng couldn't help but doubt it. With this thought, Tang Seng asked his father and grandfather to verify that although Tang Seng's biological father was dead, his identity could not be revealed, and he could only tell Chen Guangrui that he was not Tang Seng's biological father.
Therefore, Tang Seng decided that he was the murderer of his parents, and he couldn't accept it for a while, so he went to solve the old monk of Jinshan Temple who raised him, and the old monk had been enlightened by the Bodhisattva at this time, and he told Tang Seng to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground.
From then on, Tang Seng escaped into the empty door and no longer paid attention to ordinary things.
Since the young Tang monk was adopted, he was not a monk, just an ordinary person, and later when he became an adult, he was shaved and concentrated on being a monk.
What's even more strange is that in the back, Li Shimin is bent on holding a land and water conference, and he appreciates Tang Seng a lot, and later in order to obtain the Mahayana Buddhism of the West, he will be named Tang Seng as a "royal brother", and a monk will be named a "royal brother", no matter what, this is too unimaginable and acceptable, the emperors of all dynasties, for monks are to build temples and so on, only Tang Seng was named "royal brother" by Li Shimin without hesitation.
All of this seems absurd, but there seems to be a faint clue that can run through the whole thing, and I have to admire the methods of Master Guanyin.
