The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 600 The Battle for Inheritance
Almost at the same time as Deng Yuanqi rushed back to Qin Tianjian, in an inconspicuous wing room in the backyard of Ci'en Temple.

"Thank you abbot for this righteous act. Wende is really grateful."

Putting his palms together in front of his chest, Pei Wende thanked Abbot Yongci from the bottom of his heart.

Because after carrying Xiaoqing's mirage dragon and leaving Chang'an capital, Pei Wende realized a very serious problem.

That is, where should the two of them hide next?

The first to be ruled out is Fengzhuang where Zou Qiwu and Ah Yue are located.

After all, since Xiaoqing made such a fuss in Chang'an, the killing stars of Qin Tianjian must have the attitude of preferring to kill by mistake rather than let it go, and will conduct a severe search inside and outside Chang'an.

In addition, Zou Qiwu seems to have been closely monitored by the various forces in Chang'an because of his close contact with the "stupid prince".

If Pei Wende returns to Fengzhuang at this time, there is a high probability that he will be discovered and reported directly.

Besides, taking a ten thousand step back, Wen Wende didn't want to involve Zou Qiwu and Ah Yue in the next incident.

Because Pei Wende's intuition told him that since Wulin Shuidu had already appeared in Chang'an, then the real purpose of his trip to Chang'an - Pei Hui must have been lurking somewhere in Chang'an.

Once the development of the matter involved his cheap sister, even Pei Wende himself didn't know whether he could get out unscathed, let alone ordinary people like Zou Qiwu and Ah Yue.

Just at this moment, Abbot Yongci, who seemed to have been expected for a long time, appeared in front of Pei Wende, and expressed his willingness to temporarily cover his and Xiaoqing's whereabouts.

"Laymen don't need to be too polite. Although the old monk's actions are out of righteous indignation, they are still a bit selfish."

Immediately waving his hands to signal Pei Wende not to perform such a grand ceremony, Abbot Yongci glanced at Monk Qiong Jun next to him, and sighed hesitantly.

"The 'Tales of the True Dragon' and 'The Way of the Prosperous Age' that the monks said before are actually the way to govern the country, old monk..."

Before Abbot Yongci could continue, Monk Qiong Jun couldn't help interrupting the other party's words.

"It's because I want to continue to listen to my master's preaching. The abbot's move is just to fulfill my wish."

"I know that my husband has no intention of being an official, and I don't want to get involved in the power struggle of the court..."

When he said this, Monk Qiong Jun's tone paused for a moment, and then he continued.

"But if things develop as Mr. said..."

"One day Xiao Wang will be able to regain the 'True Dragon's Qi', and I implore you to assist Xiao Wang like Master Hui Ji."

Up to this point, Monk Qiong Jun suddenly bowed deeply to Pei Wende.

It was at this moment, as Monk Qiong Jun called himself "Xiao Wang" again, a very different temperament quietly appeared on him.

At this moment, standing in front of Pei Wende and Abbot Yongci was no longer the obsequious Monk Qiong Jun, but the Guangwang Li Yi who cared about the community.

"It seems that you have made up your mind!"

It was obviously a questioning sentence pattern, but Pei Wende looked at Monk Qiong Jun in front of him, but adopted a positive tone.

Although the former monk Qiong Jun knew the sufferings of the people in the world and wanted to do his best to solve this eternal problem, he never had the real courage to take on this responsibility.

In other words, it was precisely because he knew the weight of that responsibility that Monk Qiong Jun became the rumored "silly prince".

Born in a family of emperors, possessing outstanding intelligence, but afraid of taking on the inherent responsibilities...

This is one of the reasons why Monk Qiong Jun finally pretended to be a fool and became the "silly prince" in the eyes of outsiders.

However, after experiencing so many power struggles, and with the guidance of Hui Ji and Pei Wende, Monk Qiong Jun finally "awakened".

Although this is just the beginning, it means that Monk Qiong Jun has begun to think as a "superior".

However, the first time Monk Qiongjun thought as a "superior person", he was decisively rejected by Pei Wende.

"It's a pity that I have always been free and lazy, and I am not suitable to assist others."

What Pei Wende said was the truth, he didn't have Hui Ji's execution ability that cared about the world and was willing to put it into practice, so it was impossible for him to find an immediate boss for himself when he was free.

Besides, looking at the 5000-year history of China, which powerful ministers who assist the king will eventually have a good end?

Monk Qiong Jun may now respect Huiji and Pei Wende from the bottom of his heart, and wants them to help him manage the country and the country and bring peace and prosperity to the people of the world.

But as time goes by, contradictions will always accumulate inadvertently.

Companion to the king is like companion to the tiger, which has been a famous saying that has not changed since ancient times.

Pei Wende never wanted to test people's hearts, let alone test whether Monk Qiong Jun, who had regained his identity and cognition as a "superior", could really practice the idea at this moment to the end.

After all, with the emergence of the identity of "superior", there are often great ambitions and a strong desire to control.

"However, although I can't assist you like my senior brother..."

"But if you are willing to chat with me, I don't mind telling you some of my thoughts."

Seeing that both Monk Qiong Jun and Abbot Yongci showed obvious disappointment, Pei Wende, who couldn't bear it, added in time.

"Although these ideas are not the way to govern the country, they can at least save you from detours."

......................................................................................................

After a while, the silence returned to the wing room in the backyard of Ci'en Temple.

"You actually refused their request?"

"That's pretty rare."

After confirming that Monk Qiong Jun and Abbot Yongci had all left, Xiao Qing, who had quietly opened his eyes at some point, teased.

Now Xiaoqing has returned to the appearance of a three-foot green snake.

The whole green body twisted and coiled, looking calm and strange.

"Not long ago, I was so worried about the country and the people, I couldn't see the suffering of those victims..."

"This time you have the opportunity to personally change their future situation, but you voluntarily gave up. This is not in line with your character at all."

In Xiaoqing's view, if Wen Wende really accepted Monk Qiong Jun's invitation, he would have a chance to create what he called a "peace and prosperity".

The resettled victims in Ningxiang County are the best evidence.

"The value of a person is self-knowledge. I still know how many catties I have."

Smiling and turning around to face the awakened Xiaoqing, Pei Wende's voice revealed a little cunning at the moment.

"Besides, since my senior brother has decided to enter the world to fulfill his ambition, then I, as a junior brother, have to prepare him a way out."

"As long as I don't formally join the 'King of Light' camp..."

"Then no matter whether he succeeded in seizing the heir apparent in the end, or he fell out with my senior brother in the future, there is still room for relaxation."
