Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 368: The King of Shu's Plan

Once people are extremely satisfied with material things, they will turn to pursue other things in order to seek spiritual satisfaction. 』

The dignitaries in Kyoto are at the top of this society. They don’t have to worry about food and clothing, but they will worry about other things.

Worry about the past life, worry about this life, and worry about the next life.

So they came here on the first day of the Water 6 Dharma Assembly in Hanshan Temple to listen to the monks preaching, in order to overcome the suffering they had suffered in the past, avoid falling into the hungry ghosts and hell in the next life, and be reborn into a good family.

The old lady was worried about when she could hold her great-grandson, so she took Ruyi to various Buddhist halls, listened to the Avatamsaka Sutra, listened to the Shurangama Sutra, and listened to the Diamond Sutra after listening to the Shurangama Sutra. Only when Ruyi’s temperament could calm down, Miss Liu Er had long left the organization and found Li Yi and Xiaohuan, drinking tea in a quiet Zen room in the backyard.

The monk from Hanshan Temple was very polite to Li Yi. He just wanted to find a quiet place to rest, so the monk brought them here. The surroundings were unusually quiet, and he could not hear any noise outside. The tea was also good tea, with a refreshing fragrance and endless aftertaste.

In addition to his excellent attitude, he also received a gift from Hanshan Temple.

A wooden sign the size of half a palm emerged from his arms. The wooden sign was purple and slightly heavy. There were several blooming lotus flowers carved on the front, emitting a faint fragrance.

It looked like sandalwood. Although sandalwood is precious, such a small piece should not be sold for much money. The old monk was too stingy, and Hanshan Temple was not particular. They gave them scriptures and helped them repel the enemy, but they only gave them such a small wooden sign. It was not sincere.

If the little monk hadn't said that with this wooden sign, he could do something convenient in any temple in Jingguo, he would have thrown it to Shouning to play with.

The sun was shining brightly outside, and the tea in the Zen room was fragrant. Miss Liu Er also calmed down and sat quietly opposite Li Yi to drink tea.

The monks were so friendly that she felt embarrassed to exchange martial arts with them.

Xiaohuan was bragging about Li Yi's great achievements just now, and with a few words, the foreign monks who came to make trouble were speechless. Liu Ruyi looked up and saw that it was no wonder that when she came here just now, she heard many people discussing Chang'an County. She didn't react at that time, and only realized who they were talking about at this moment.

For Li Yi, there was nothing interesting about the Shui 6 Dharma Assembly. If he hadn't been dragged out by Li Xuansheng in the morning, he should be basking in the sun at home now.

This Dharma Assembly will last for a full seven days. Judging from the old lady's appearance, she should not have any intention of going back in the short term.

Li Yi decided to go back with Xiao Huan and the others first. He would take advantage of these few days to prepare for the class and compress all the contents to be taught within a few days. Then, he would let them digest them slowly. In this way, he would have enough time to deal with the affairs of Qing'an Prefecture and have a perfect honeymoon.

The tea of ​​Hanshan Temple is good. Before leaving, he asked the little monk to pack two kilograms. Seeing his painful look, he had a deeper understanding of the stinginess of Hanshan Temple.

The little monk looked at Li Yi's back with tears in his eyes. If the host had not personally explained, such tea would not be used to entertain guests. You know, a few days ago, even the prime minister of the dynasty wanted to taste one or two kilograms but failed. That was two kilograms...

"Just now, the foreign monk came to make trouble and wanted to discuss Zen with Master Tan Yin. It's a pity that you didn't see the scene at that time."

"What, there is such a thing?"

"Of course, the old monk asked Master Tan Yin "What is Buddha", guess what Master Tan Yin did Say? Master Tanyin said nothing, he just... "

"What a great person who proves the Buddhist theory with the invisible. Master Tanyin's realm is something that ordinary people like us may never reach in our lifetime."

"Don't even mention Master Tanyin. I'm already very satisfied if I can reach the realm of Chang'an County Master in this lifetime."

"What Chang'an County Master?"

------

The discussion on Zen just now was very exciting. Not only did everyone see what it means to prove the Buddhist theory with the invisible, but they also witnessed a young man defeating a Buddhist master with a few words. During the conversation, they soon had new topics to talk about.

Even "Who am I?" "Who is me?" "Can the Buddha create a stone that he can't lift?" became the most talked-about issues.

The enthusiasm for His Majesty's title has not actually subsided. The four words "Chang'an County Master" appear very frequently in their ears. Now, on the basis of the original, there is another wave of enthusiasm.

The King of Shu and several young talents stood under a plum tree, smiled and said: "This Chang'an County Master is indeed a strange person. I must get to know him if I have the chance."

"Your Highness, the King of Shu, in fact, you have just met the Chang'an County Master." A young man standing behind the King of Shu hesitated for a moment and spoke.

It was difficult for Chen Licheng to describe his current mood. It was just a few days since we last met. How could he become the Chang'an County Master?

What about the talented man with no background in Qing'an Mansion?

Even the Duke of Chen's Mansion was quite afraid of him. When the young master in the mansion was bullied, they didn't even go to the door to hold him accountable, and they strictly ordered everyone not to have conflicts with the Li family again.

"Oh?" The King of Shu looked at him, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, and asked: "I just met him, when?"

Chen Licheng also succeeded in hooking up with the King of Shu in recent days. Hearing this, he did not dare to neglect it and immediately replied: "The one standing next to the Prince of Ning, Li Xuan, is the Chang'an County Master, Li Yi."

"So it was him..." The King of Shu narrowed his eyes. He had heard that Chang'an County Master and Li Xuan had a close relationship, but he did not expect that the man just now was the Chang'an County Master who was personally appointed by his father.

Others did not know the details of this Li County Master, and just thought that he was lucky to be favored by the emperor. As a prince, he knew some secrets about him.

Everything he did was earth-shaking, especially the punishment of heaven. Although he did not know what it was, he knew that the victory in this battle with Qi was the effect of the punishment of heaven.

What kind of weapon could make Jing State from weak to strong and defeat Qi?

This is also the reason why his father values ​​him so much. If he also has this help, why worry about not accomplishing great things?

Born to Concubine Cui, he is the prince who has the most hope of inheriting the throne in the palace. He is knowledgeable and well-versed in both civil and military affairs. He has many friends, and many young talents from powerful families in Kyoto follow his lead. He has a deep background. Not only does he have the support of the wealthy Cui family, but many heavyweight elders in the court are also his supporters. Countless people, including himself, think that he is the next emperor of Jingguo.

However, the current emperor does not seem to think so. The crown prince has not been established for a long time, and the East Palace is vacant. As time goes by, he becomes more and more uneasy.

He also wants to control more resources, so that after his father's death, no one can stop him from ascending the throne...

He never doubts his father's vision. He attaches so much importance to this Chang'an County boy, which means that he must have something that he values ​​very much. Similarly, this will also be valued by himself.

He is the dignified King of Shu, the next monarch of Jingguo. As for Li Xuan, he is just a prince. A smart person should be able to tell which is more important.
