I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 363 Set!Let Xu Fenglei be handsome!Xuanzang's visit, the demeanor of a mage
"Guanyin maidservant, you are so smart!"

Li Shimin was full of praise, and rushed to his wife, but it was in vain.

Seeing that the eldest grandson Wugou dodged flexibly, he spat:
"What did I say? Don't be fussy."

"Be careful to hurt the child."

"Yes yes yes..." Li Shimin nodded repeatedly, withdrew his hand embarrassingly, and said with a smile, "I'm so excited, I forgot about it."

He slowed down a little and praised:
"Your idea sounds bold at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, it is extremely practical."

"Listen to Ming's ability, I recognize it. Although he is good at ingenuity, he has also made achievements in the military. He may not be able to lead troops in actual combat, but in terms of military strategy and tactics, he is completely comparable to Li Jing and the others!"

"I worship Ting Ming as the commander, and Li Jing and Li Ji as the deputy commanders. The three of them cooperate with each other and will surely win the battle!"

Grandson Wugou nodded.

"Yeah, he's always been reliable, you can't go wrong with him."

she said,

"Actually, there is another point. Compared with Li Jing and Li Ji, Ting Ming is always someone we trust more."

"After all these years of getting along, we also know his temperament thoroughly. Even if he has military achievements and honors, he will never be impetuous and arrogant."

"He won this monstrous military exploit, Erfeng, you can have no worries."

Li Shimin showed approval.

"Indeed, this kid is the one I feel most at ease about! Although I feel a little regretful that he is not married, but from another perspective, it is more reassuring for such a person with no family and power to control power, right?"

He nodded and said,

"I had plans when I established the crown prince."

"Listen to this person, I have to take a closer look. If he is still so reassuring before the day of my funeral, then I will hand over the burden of protecting the country to him!"

The burden of protecting the country!

These four words are heavier and more authoritative than "Tuogu Zhongchen"!

It is precisely because of the great power that even if he already has great trust in Xu Fenglei, he still needs to look at it again and sharpen it again.From this point of view, it may be ten years, 20 years.

Once there is a change in the middle, he will change his mind.

There is no way, this heavy burden must be handed over to a courtier who absolutely trusts!If there is no suitable candidate, he will choose not to hand in!

"Okay, okay, don't talk so far..."

Changsun Wugou brought the topic back and said with a smile,

"Since that's the case, let's make a decision to ask Ming to be handsome?"

"If this is the case, I'm afraid there will be an uproar in the court! Even if you understand yourself, you will probably be shocked and resign desperately."

She could imagine the expressions of the ministers at this moment.

"Hmph, there will definitely be waves, but the things I have decided cannot be changed."

Li Shimin snorted softly,

"This job, if I don't want it, I won't let it go!"

"It's so domineering!"

He paused for a while, then suddenly raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:

"Hey, Avalokitesvara maidservant, look at it, you still have a way, I really can't live without you!"

"Tell me, can Concubine Yang have your opinion? She knows how to tinker with rouge and gouache all day long! There are other concubines, can they give me such a coup to make me feel at ease?"

"Nobody can! Only you wow!"

"So, you can't drive me away. I have a lot of troubles recently! I need you..."

Hearing this, Changsun Wugou couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Alright, Sapporo is in love with this!
"I'm not driving you away, isn't this pregnant with a child..."

She squeezed Li Erda's crotch, curled her lips and said,
"You are irritable and always want to play tricks on others, so you might as well go to another concubine."

"My body is weak and I can't stand your torment. Also, I heard Ming said that I can no longer have children, and my life will be shortened."

"Even though I don't care about my life expectancy, I always want to spend more time with you, want to see the children grow up, get married and have children..."

Li Shimin looked solemn.

"Don't worry, I, Li Shimin, still have some restraint."

He looked serious and assured,
"From now on, strictly follow Ting Ming and Master Sun's instructions. They don't allow it, and I will never touch a finger of yours!"

"Actually... the physical pleasure is only temporary, and it will be boring after a while, but the spiritual resonance is eternal, and it will make you and my husband and wife love and joy forever."

"I think we are spiritual partners, are you right? Avalokitesvara."

The eldest grandson Wugou looked suspicious.

"Your words seem to be spoken after you have had fun somewhere."

she said.

Li Shimin stared: "#￥%...&*@!!!"

……

At noon the next day, Xu Guogong's mansion.

Swish.

Xu Fenglei opened his eyes and jumped up from the bed.

He took a rest today, so he could sleep until noon and eat lunch directly when he got up.

"Ho--t!"

He spat out a mouthful of sticky phlegm, and there was a sound from outside the house.

"Sir, are you awake?"

A maidservant in a goose-yellow gauze skirt pushed the door in, with a sweet smile, she brought casual clothes for Xu Fenglei with ease, and put them on for him.

A few rough-clothed maidservants also came in, bringing copper basins and towels to him.

There is no need to move, the maidservants have already served him clearly, washing his face, brushing his teeth and dressing him.

The daily life of a prince is so unpretentious and boring.

"puff."

Xu Fenglei spat out the salt water in his mouth and said casually,

"I'm a little hungry, what's for dinner today?"

The maidservant in yellow replied:

"There are cabbage beef, shredded pork with celery, and the freshly cut mutton was sent by the proprietress of the West Market early in the morning. The lamb meat has no fishy smell."

"There is also a bowl of pigeon soup. The pigeons were just shot this morning. The meat is very tender."

Three dishes and one soup, all meat dishes.

Even if it is supplied to the Duke of the state, it can be called good.

"Beef? Which cow fell to death again?"

Xu Fenglei joked,

"According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, it is illegal to kill farm cattle privately."

The maidservant in yellow giggled.

"As long as you want to eat, the cows that fall to death are enough."

she joked,

"If you want to eat it every day, we can also arrange a group of cows to line up and jump off the cliff to die."

"Hahaha..." Xu Fenglei laughed loudly, waved his hands and said, "Farewell, farewell, farm cattle are precious, and we will rarely cook cabbage beef in the future. When will we occupy the Turkic Grassland and take the grassland beef If you have a yak and taste it, it will be beautiful."

Even though this plate of beef was bought from an official channel, he couldn't bear it.

The locust plague and drought have not yet passed, and the next meal for the victims has not yet been settled.

The year of catastrophe is too much.

"Yes."

The maidservant in yellow nodded obediently and said,

"In fact, those old farmers are very grateful when they sell their cattle. Our government buys cattle at a much higher price than the market price, and never lowers the price."

"If we don't buy it, those black merchants will also buy it. When the time comes, the price will be severely lowered, and the farmers will suffer even more."

Xu Fenglei was taken aback.

This, too.

The so-called no killing without buying and selling is purely deceitful.

The market will always be there, if you don’t buy it, people will buy it at a low price, and the old farmers who are forced to sell their cattle will suffer in the end.

"OK then."

he laughed,
"Then let's just buy what we want, don't feel burdened, and respect the laws of the market."

With that said, Xu Fenglei got up and walked to the courtyard.

Several maidservants stepped forward and put three dishes, one soup, and a bowl of fragrant wheat rice on the stone table.

"Sir, use the soup first."

The maidservant in yellow scooped up a bowl of pigeon soup, brought it to Xu Fenglei, and said softly,
"Appetizer."

"Yeah." Xu Fenglei sniffed and praised, "Sweet."

Gollum.

Swallowing a mouthful of pigeon soup lightly, the fragrance is already lingering on the lips and teeth.

Just as he was about to cook, suddenly a young servant came running quickly and entered the yard to report:

"Master, Master Xuanzang, who came to visit you yesterday, is here again today."

"Just wait outside right now, why don't you ask him to come in to pay a visit after you finish your meal?"

Xu Fenglei raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Xuanzang..."

he laughed,
"It's okay, you can just call him in now, and it doesn't matter if you have something to talk about while eating."

"Yes." The servant got the order, turned and left.

"Master Xuanzang?"

The maidservant in yellow said with some doubts,

"Sir, since when have you been in contact with the monk?"

Xu Fenglei smiled without saying a word, eating and chewing meat on his own.

"This choy sum beef is good, quite tender."

He praised a few words, and immediately took two big mouthfuls of rice.

Da-da, da-da.

The food was delicious, and there was a sound of gentle footsteps.

"Amitabha."

A soft and steady voice came, but I saw Master Xuanzang, dressed in plain clothes and with a big bald head, bowing towards Xu Fenglei,

"Teacher, the monk is being polite."

The maidservant in yellow looked at the monk in front of her, her eyes lit up involuntarily.

This monk... so handsome!

"It's Xuanzang, come and sit down."

Xu Fenglei smiled and waved,
"have you eaten?"

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and shook his head.

"The little monk drank a bowl of porridge early in the morning and left the temple. He traveled all the way to Chang'an without eating."

He answered honestly,
"So... the little monk has to be cheeky and ask the Grand Master for alms."

Xu Fenglei couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"Hahahaha, easy to talk about."

He pointed to the food in front of him and said,
"What do you think of these dishes?"

Xuanzang's eyes fell on the stone table.

The cooks in Xu Guogong's mansion were also trained and brought out from Tiance's mansion. In other words, the level of the cooks in his mansion was comparable to that of the imperial chef.

Just smelling the fragrance can stimulate the secretion of saliva and intestinal peristalsis.

“All delicious food.”

Xuanzang agreed.

"Okay, then invite the mage to have a light meal with me."

Xu Fenglei waved his hand and said,

"There are just so many dishes that I can't finish them all by myself."

"Come, come, quickly add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to Master Xuanzang, and fill a bowl of rice!"

The maidservant in yellow was a little taken aback.

"Er... sir."

She tentatively said,
"Isn't this monk a vegetarian? The table is full of meat..."

"Would you like to make a few special vegetarian dishes for Master Xuanzang?"

In her opinion, this handsome monk should be an acquaintance with her husband even if they are not friends, so she should treat her well.

At the very least, you can't make things difficult for others.

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Xu Fenglei waved his hands and said calmly,

"The so-called wine and meat have passed through the intestines, but the Buddha kept it in his heart!"

"Buddha said that meat is meat, it is called meat, it is not meat, if you are so rigid about the rules and regulations, then it is a sign."

"Master Xuanzang, do you think so?"

The maidservant in yellow: "..."

It seems that the master is trying to make things difficult for this monk!

She looked at Xuanzang curiously, at this moment she really wanted to know how this monk would respond to such a situation.

"The grand master's sentence 'wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha's heart stays' has already reached the realm of an arhat."

Seeing that Xuanzang was neither bored nor annoyed, he smiled lightly and said,

"Arhats eat wine and spit out food; eat meat and change life. Naturally, wine and meat can be pierced through the intestines, which is also a meritorious deed."

"The little monk is far from this level, so naturally he dare not break the precepts presumptuously, otherwise, he will fall into the devil's way."

The corners of Xu Fenglei's mouth rose.

Xuanzang is worthy of being Xuanzang, this head is so fast!

"From what the grand master said, you seem to have studied the Diamond Sutra quite well."

He said again,
"What you said just now is the same as the "Buddha said Prajna Paramita in the Diamond Sutra, that is, it is not Prajna Paramita, it is called Prajna Paramita." If you are diligent, you will forget your form, and you must know that all appearances are illusory, and if you see appearances without appearances, you will see the Tathagata."

"However, the key to these sixteen characters is actually the first sentence."

"Everything, the word "all", represents experience and insight. When a Buddhist disciple has a very high Buddhist insight, he will have obstacles, and he will need to get rid of delusions."

"Otherwise, fantasies are inherently false, so why destroy them? How can we define them as non-appearances even if we haven't seen them? Let alone seeing the Tathagata."

Xu Fenglei nodded slightly and straightened his body.

The servants and servants around were all fascinated by what they heard.

Even those who don't understand the master's lectures will feel that they have time to understand and gain something.

"The mage's words are justified, I was the one who argued sophistry."

Xu Fenglei praised,

"Just as it is said in the "Taishang Laojun Said Chang Qingjing Sutra" 'Once you enter the true way, it is called getting the way; Road.' Same, both have the same thing."

Xuanzang chewed the scriptures, his eyes lit up, and he nodded.

"Yes Yes."

His smile grew softer,
"The meaning is the same. It seems that the grand master is not only proficient in Buddhism, but also dabbles in the essence of Taoism."

Xu Fenglei laughed and waved his hand.

"It's nothing more than superficial knowledge, and it can't be compared with a mage."

He said modestly, and said,
"Come on, go and prepare a vegetarian meal for the mage, no trace of meat is allowed."

"Yes." The maidservant in yellow grinned.

Although this handsome monk is very powerful, our husband is also very good!Talking about mysteries with the other party will not let you down in the slightest!
"No need."

The maid was about to leave, but Xuanzang shook his head and said,

"Begging for alms, whatever the benefactor gives the little monk to eat is a fate."

"Whether it's vegetarian or meaty, I'm already grateful if I can turn it into a fate, so how dare I be picky?"

"Give the monk rice, and the monk can eat it; give the monk delicacies, and the monk can eat it; the Buddha has no discrimination, and the monk has no discrimination, only the heart of gratitude to the donor."

"This benefactor, add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to the little monk, and a bowl of rice will be fine."

When Xu Fenglei heard this, he couldn't help being in awe.

"Masters are true disciples of Buddha."

he said,

"Little Huang, go and serve the mage with rice. The mage has worked hard all the way, so he must be hungry. Please pack the rice."
