$487, This Is One Year Old (Please Order the Whole Thing)

Li Shimin would not deliberately refuse the offer of land and country by the Queen of the Kingdom of Women. Because he had the bad reputation of killing his brother and imprisoning his father, he tried his best to be a wise monarch to offset the world's view of him.

After the surrender of the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang, his prestige would be improved to a certain extent.

It was a good thing for both the Tang Dynasty and him.

"The King of Liang has made it clear in the letter that he hopes that Bai Aiqing will go to the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang to complete the territorial handover. I will order the Honglu Temple to prepare for the envoy..."

Li Shimin said after reading the letter from the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang.

Even if the Queen of Xiliang did not designate Bai Gui as the envoy, as a wise monarch, he would designate Bai Gui to go to the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang in person.

Bai Gui nodded.

This matter was over, and he was about to leave.

A voice came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Master Xuanzang wants to see you."

The eunuch called out.

Hearing this, Bai Gui stopped and was not in a hurry to leave. . He also planned to meet Chen Xuanzang once.

Li Shimin ordered Chen Xuanzang to the palace.

"Your Majesty, at the Dharma Assembly tomorrow, I will open the altar to preach, and preach the "Rebirth and Departure Sutra", "Anbang Tianbao Lu", "Quanxiu Gongjuan"..., to pray for your majesty and eliminate disasters."

Chen Xuanzang put his hands together and said.

At the water and land Dharma Assembly tomorrow, he, as a distinguished monk, will be the main speaker. And what sutra to preach and what scriptures to recite must be reported to the emperor in advance in the palace, otherwise it cannot be said or said.

There are tricks in this.

However, it is just a report. It depends on Chen Xuanzang himself to decide what sutra to preach. Others don't know as much as this monk.

Reporting to the palace is a procedure.

"But, this matter is up to you, Master Xuanzang."

Li Shimin did not refuse Chen Xuanzang's face and nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chen Xuanzang nodded and bowed.

When Chen Xuanzang was about to leave, Bai Gui stopped him, "I just returned from traveling abroad. I heard that the speaker of this water and land Dharma Assembly is Master Xuanzang... I see that Master Xuanzang is so young, but you have such a profound Buddhist Dharma. Do you have a secret to keep your youth?"

He asked.

The older you are, the deeper you delve into knowledge.

This is common sense.

No matter whether it is Confucianism, Buddhism or Taoism, it is the same. Unless the young is too talented and can surpass others in ten years of hard work in one year, otherwise, as a rule, the older you are, the better.

Chang'an is the capital of the Tang Dynasty. If there are no eminent monks, it is obviously not true.

Therefore, anyone who sees such a young Tang Monk will be puzzled. How can he, at the age of twenty, be able to speak about Buddhism at the water and land assembly.

Of course..., Bai Gui's purpose is not like this.

This is just a pretext for him to speak.

"I am eighteen this year, not because I have the secret to keep my youth."

"Shangguan, you are joking."

Seeing Bai Gui in a red robe, Xuanzang answered respectfully even though he did not know who he was.

Respecting an official, a subconscious action.

"Eighteen years old..."

Bai Gui's face was calm, but he felt very strange in his heart.

He was not sure before he met Tang Seng. But after seeing Tang Seng's appearance, he could vaguely see some shadows of Yin Wenjiao and Chen Guangrui, and roughly judged that Tang Seng should be the son of Chen Guangrui and Yin Wenjiao.

"Cicadas do not know spring and autumn, and ants do not know morning and evening."

"Could it be..."

Bai Gui hid his hand in his sleeve and calculated Tang Seng's age and origin based on his face, but after the calculation, the result was that Tang Seng was indeed eighteen years old.

This is a very strange thing.

You know, Chen Guangrui just took up his post this year.

How could Yin Wenjiao give birth to an eighteen-year-old child immediately? !

This is one year old? !

"No wonder no one doubts Tang Seng, they just think he looks like Chen Guangrui and Yin Wenjiao, after all, at this age, he can't be the fetus in Yin Wenjiao's belly."

"Jin Chanzi is not an ordinary species, it may be related to this."

Bai Gui thought to himself.

He didn't quite understand this matter, but after thinking about it, it was only related to Tang Seng's previous life Jin Chanzi. Jin Chanzi is a different species, and reincarnation is different from humans, which is also common sense.

"Don't underestimate Master Xuanzang, Bai Aiqing."

"I have witnessed his Buddhist teachings with my own eyes, which are better than many monks in Chang'an. It is also a blessing that he is the main speaker of this water and land conference."

Li Shimin saw Bai Gui's doubts, smiled, and helped Chen Xuanzang out.

If he didn't know Tang Seng's true ability, he would also think that such a young person could have any profound insights into Buddhism...

Bai Gui's doubts were normal.

"So you are Minister Bai."

Chen Xuanzang suddenly realized and bowed to Bai Gui, saying, "I have heard of Minister Bai's name for a long time. Minister Bai has benefited thousands of families and brought blessings to future generations. He is a person I respect."

Bai Gui once submitted a memorial to govern natural disasters and reduce man-made disasters. Once this memorial was issued, it would be a good law for the ages. Based on this alone, Bai Gui has become a figure of Buddha for thousands of families.

As for why Chen Xuanzang determined that the person with the surname Bai was Bai Gui, it was also simple. The surname Bai is not a big surname, and there are not many people with the surname Bai serving as officials in the court. Combining some information, it is easy to judge Bai Gui's identity.

"Master, you are polite."

Bai Gui returned the gift and didn't ask any more questions.

Of course, the reason why he stopped asking questions was not only because Chen Xuanzang "surrendered". It was because Chen Xuanzang was not an ordinary person. Although he was curious, he didn't want to get involved in cause and effect, so after just one divination, he didn't want to explore more.

Curiosity kills the cat!

Telling a fortune does not involve too much.

Characters like Tang Monk have gods and gods covering up their secrets. The first hexagram he calculated was mostly the news he got after being hidden from the world. This is not surprising, and it is not enough for Lingshan Immortal Buddha to notice him.

After all, whenever someone reaches a high position, there are good people who tell fortunes and predict the person.

He is just one example, not outstanding.

But if you continue to do this, the consequences will be unpredictable.

"Besides, I still have some friendship with Guanyin. At least Suzhen and Guanyin have a good relationship. For this reason alone, Guanyin will not hold me too accountable..."

He secretly thought.

Bai Suzhen is a disciple of Lishan Laomu. The Bai Yi sword in Bai Suzhen's hand was a gift from Guanyin Bodhisattva. The two families have a certain relationship, so this little thing is not worth paying too much attention to.

In addition, his own status is not low. He has become an immortal and automatically entered the list of direct disciples of Louguan Taoism.

"It will be Xuanzang's blessing if Bai Shilang comes to attend the Water and Land Dharma Assembly tomorrow."

Chen Xuanzang invited.

"Although I am practicing in the world, I am a Taoist. I will not attend the Water and Land Dharma Assembly. Please forgive me, Master."

Bai Gui declined directly.

There were many monks at the Water and Land Dharma Assembly. As a Taoist priest, it would be awkward for him to attend.

Seeing this, Chen Xuanzang did not force anything, and just said Amitabha to break the awkwardness.

"The poor monk takes his leave."

Chen Xuanzang held the Buddhist beads in his hand and spoke again.

After Chen Xuanzang left, Bai Gui also said goodbye and prepared to go to Dongting Dragon Palace.
