Fahai travels through Tang Sanzang

Chapter 120 The widow is willing to worship the holy monk as the national teacher of this dynasty

The queen and empress were the first to salute, and all the maids and princesses who followed her also bowed and saluted one after another.

It was also the empress who had been entrusted by Bai Huaxie in advance, and learned that although the Master Sanzang liked to call himself an ordinary monk, he was actually a virtuous and eminent monk with profound Dharma and powerful mana.

Whether it's superseding evil spirits or transforming sentient beings, it's all within reach.

He also talked about the disciples of Master Sanzang, especially when he talked about the Great Sage, and he praised them for a while.

At this time, the Empress Queen took a few more glances at the Great Sage, she thought that this elder looked thin and small, but he only had a dexterous appearance, and she didn't want to have such supernatural powers.

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven who made a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace 500 years ago brought me, the prince's soul, to the underworld, chatting and laughing with the emperor of the underworld, and the king of the underworld greeted him with a smile
However, despite such a powerful person, he is willing to worship under this holy god, which shows that this holy monk is really a great virtue in the world.

Although the miserable prince of my family has been wandering outside for 13 years, isn't it a blessing for her to be favored by Master Sanzang and enter Buddhism in person?

The empress queen is a Buddhist believer who has always been compassionate, and she is also a person who eats fast and recites Buddha on weekdays.

Therefore, I don't object to my daughter becoming a monk and becoming a pure Buddhist, but if she becomes a monk, isn't she her daughter?
What's more, she is in such a situation now, if she can get rid of the troubles of the world and become a real spiritual person, it will be a merit.

It's better than leading the sons of two demon kings to be criticized by others.

After leading the masters and apprentices to their seats, they chatted a few words, nothing more than inquiring about the customs of the Tang Dynasty, as well as anecdotes about their masters and apprentices along the way.

Most likely it was Xiao Bailong who responded on his behalf, he was the best at such social situations, and many of the daughters present also liked his appearance, and they felt like a fish in water, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while, enjoying themselves harmoniously.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Everyone was fascinated by it, but a few loud laughter came from not far away.

It turned out that the king had just entered the imperial garden, and his laughter had already arrived, which was a way of showing intimacy.

When the crowd heard the sound, they also paused for a while, and while they got up, the king was laughing in front of them. After the two sides saluted each other, the king also entered the throne.

"The widow has prepared some vegetarian wine. I wonder if the holy monk has any taboos in this regard?"

"It's just plain wine, let the disciples of the poor monk drink it for you." Fa Hai apologized to the king: "The poor monk has the precepts and cannot drink alcohol."

"Ah, it's the widow who didn't take care of her properly, so please ask the holy monk Haihan."

"It's okay."

This Xiniu Hezhou is after all the birthplace of Buddhism, and everyone tacitly understands Buddhist precepts and some taboos.There may be some minor differences that have not been taken into account, but it is not a faux pas.

At this time, when the words were explained clearly, the king sent someone to refill tea for Master Sanzang.

"Come on, set up a banquet!"

Since it was entertaining monks, it was naturally a full fast banquet, and the imperial cooks in the palace, and the queen's meals were always vegetarian dishes, so there was no problem, as it was hearty and complete.

One by one, the maids came in with lunch boxes, and each stayed in front of an elder, and began to make a meal, and the aroma was tangy for a while.

But Bajie stopped the maid serving Sha Wujing's meals, and said with a smile: "Female benefactor, female benefactor, my younger brother doesn't eat grains, you can just send his share to Lao Zhu." -"

Bajie said a word, but made a maid who was arranging the dishes very difficult, and was a little at a loss for a while.

"Hehehe."

The maid heard the laugh of the elder in front of her again, so she subconsciously looked at it, but saw that he couldn't open his mouth, and the voice only came from his chest and abdomen, "Female benefactor, just follow my second senior brother's orders, the little monk can't open his mouth, he can't open his mouth." Eat and drink carefully to waste food."

The maid hurriedly turned her head to look at Master Sanzang and His Majesty. She also said that the great monk she was serving was just vicious in appearance, but at any rate, she never thought that she would be even more troublesome than the first two.

For a moment, I was a little envious of Master Sanzang and the sisters beside Xiaobailong. What kind of blessings did they accumulate in their previous lives to serve these two.

The king first questioned Master Sanzang with his eyes, and seeing Master Sanzang nodded in response, he said: "Just follow the orders of the elders."

He only knew that the disciples of this holy monk were all strange people, even the Great Sage and Bajie, hadn't he seen them at this moment?
It doesn't seem so unusual for Sha Wujing to skip meals like this.

Besides, he still has two grandchildren of wolves, so it can be regarded as getting used to it in advance.

During the meal, the king toasted Fahai again to thank him for saving his daughter. After Fahai returned the gift with tea instead of wine, the king said: "The elder has profound magic power, and the Dharma is vast. The widow still does not know how to repay the kindness of my son. If the holy monk does not give up, the widow wants to keep the holy monk in his country. Wealthy."

While speaking, Wang went to check Fahai's expression. He saw that Fahai was just listening quietly, neither moved nor impatient, and at the same time secretly convinced him, he went to watch some of his disciples.

If it's just Master Sanzang who is calm, that's all. After all, if such eminent monks are lured by the riches and honors of the world, how can they be called great virtues?But now even a few of his disciples looked disapproving, so he had to be amazed.

This great apprentice Sun Wukong is the Monkey King who was said by his daughter to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace 500 years ago. It is normal for him not to notice;

Look at the second apprentice Zhu Bajie, but he only cares about the vegetarian food in front of him, it seems that the wealth he said is not as real as the food in front of him;
The third disciple Sha Wujing, Xu Shi was born with a cold face, since he came in, his expression has not changed.Even when he was laughing just now, it was like this——

And that little apprentice, Ao Lie, seemed to enjoy chatting with the maid beside him, but in fact the king could see that there was no lust in his eyes, just ordinary communication.

Even his two little grandsons, the older one was silent, a little sarcasm flashed in his eyes after hearing what he said, as if to say again: Who do you look down on?

The younger ones are ignorant, and I'm afraid they don't even know what the words in their mouths mean.

The king saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, which was actually just a glance. He didn't mean to be tempted like this on purpose, it was just the ability that he had honed after being a king for a long time and fighting wits and courage with his courtiers all day long.

Watching words and demeanor is actually a must-have ability for a successful king like him, otherwise he will inevitably be bullied by his subordinates.

He really wanted to keep this holy monk, he is a normal king, how could he not have some lofty ambitions in his chest?

Now that I have met such a virtuous and eminent monk, if I can really get his help, wouldn't the rise of his Baoxiang Kingdom be just around the corner?
Perhaps it can also have a scene like the prosperous Tang Dynasty!
Seeing Fahai's eyes looking over, the king knew that his opening would mean refusing to accept him. Feeling unwilling, he inevitably wanted to put all his eggs in one basket. He rushed to the front and said, "If the holy monk is not willing to return to the vulgar, the widow is willing to worship the holy monk as the king. The national teacher, build a temple for the national teacher, and rest with the fate of the court—”

hiss--

As soon as this sentence came out, even Fa Hai couldn't help but look a little bit stunned.

The great sage put down the chopsticks and wine glass in his hand, and began to look at the king seriously; Bajie also wiped his mouth, and his eyes moved back and forth between the master and the king; nine spirit bodies floated out of Drifting Monk, who will be at the banquet together The princess and maids above were terrified; Xiao Bailong quickly got up to appease——

Doubt appeared in Dalang's eyes, while Erlang's whole body was full of confusion.

But who is Fahai?
How can he be disturbed by such words, he is just a little strange. Why can this king make such a decision?
Fa Hai was good at watching people's hearts, and for a while he couldn't figure out the king's state of mind.

What he said seemed to be a fit of anger for a while, but it also seemed to be sincere rather than fake.

If the king seemed a little regretful when he first said this, but the longer he looked at him, the more determined his expression became.

interesting.

"The poor monk was wrongly loved by His Majesty, but this time, His Majesty will be disappointed." The more determined the king was, the more straightforward Fa Hai's refusal was, there was no room for change, and it was unrealistic to cut off the king's share directly. I thought, "The poor monk can't agree, and won't agree."

call--

After hearing Fa Hai's words, the king let out a long sigh helplessly.

He actually knew from the beginning that this would be the result, but he still wanted to give it a try, what if?
"I also ask the holy monk not to blame the widow for being abrupt." The king picked up the wine glass and said, "The widow punishes himself with a drink."

Although the king's words did not cause any conflicts, they still disturbed the interest after all, and soon the banquet came to an end, and it was about to end.

"Holy Monk." The king got up and bowed to Fahai again, saying: "Although we can't keep the Holy Monk in court, but after all, the chance is rare, and I have some knots in my heart. I want to ask the Holy Monk for advice. I don't know if the Holy Monk can help me Are you willing to enlighten me?"

"Amitabha." Fahai also got up and recited the Buddha's name, saying: "There is nothing I can do, and it is also the way of poor monks who can relieve His Majesty's worries."

The master was left behind, and several apprentices also stayed in the palace.

The queen is a true Buddhist person, so there is no need to mention her benevolence. Seeing that the disciples, except for Xiao Bailong, were somewhat neglected, Bai Hua shamelessly called them to her.

Others may be afraid of the appearance of the Great Sage and Bajie, but she feels the profound Buddha nature in them.

What's more, they are the saviors of their own daughter. After seeing it for a long time, they feel pleasing to the eye and kind. Even the pig-headed Bajie is much more straightforward.

The queen looked at the two little demons following behind, "You two little fellows, come here. Let grandma have a look."

The queen has a good heart, plus she recites the Buddha's name all day long, and she is also nourished by the Buddhist scriptures and stained with the light of the Buddha.
The two little demons could also feel the kindness of the grandmother, and saw their mother nodding to them, so they went forward together, went to the queen's knees and bowed down: "The grandson has seen the grandmother."

"Okay, okay, okay - get up!"

Seeing that the two little demons were well-behaved, the queen became more and more delighted, and repeatedly stretched out her hands to help them.
