Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 358. Chapter 357.
The qi of heaven and earth has no waves or movements.

Xuan Suning seemed to walk out of the light and came to Li Zhen's side.

And no one saw the fluorescent dots, even the pedestrians who just passed by the Taoist turned a blind eye.

Li Zhen hurriedly said hello:
"teacher."

"Ah."

After Xuan Suning responded, he indicated that the two of them could go back to the mountain.

But just when Li Zhen wanted to get on the horse, she found that she didn't seem to be the kind she used to be... It looked like BLINK, and the flash of light was the way to go far, far away.But it was like taking a walk in the garden, walking home step by step.

Li Zhen was stunned for a moment, and quickly led the horse to follow.

"Shou Chu."

"exist."

"No trouble today, right?"

"..."

Li Zhen was a little speechless, but he was a little guilty... for fear that someone would turn his wrist and take out a piece of jade and say something like "what's going on".

Then it will be difficult to come out next time.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Xuan Suning glanced at him... Scared Li Laodao quickly shook his head:

"No, my disciple went back to take a shower, packed a few changes of clothes, and told my little boy to come and wait for the teacher."

Hearing Li Zhen's explanation, Xuan Suning didn't ask in detail, but just turned his wrist, revealing a golden imperial decree.

Only the form is different.

Yang Guang's imperial decree is pure gold, but the two ends of this imperial decree are decorated with green jade rings, and the outline is also slightly narrower.

"This is……"

"In the afternoon, I asked the Empress for a will."

She said:
"Although I guard the dragon's veins, I don't have a good reputation in the capital, and I don't intend to be like a national teacher. Everyone knows it. The empress is extremely smart, so I can't guess it. Therefore, If there is any trouble at that time, seeing it is like seeing the empress in person."

……

"His Majesty."

"Oh, it's the queen."

Inside the Palace of Qinzheng, Yang Guang nodded as he watched Xiao Shi walk in.

Before the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Yang Guang was not in business, but reading a book.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao personally served the boiled sugar water for him from the tray held by the maid:
"Your Majesty, drink some chrysanthemum water."

"Well, okay, let's put that first."

Even though he said this, Yang Guang's eyes still fell on the scripture, looking very focused.

Xiao didn't say much, seeing that he was not moving, he used a spoon to scoop up the bowl of golden syrup.

It took a while to scoop until the temperature reached a suitable temperature before opening again:
"His Majesty."

This time, Yang Guang put down the scroll in his hand, nodded and took the bowl.

After taking two sips, feeling the natural chrysanthemum aroma and sweetness in his mouth, he nodded in satisfaction.

Husband and wife have been together for many years, and they know each other's preferences very well.

This taste is also just right for the heart.

At this time, Xiao Shi spoke:
"Your Majesty has been reading this scripture for many days. I think I should have read it several times, right?"

"Well……"

Yang Guang thought for a while and said:

"This is the fourth time."

A trace of curiosity flashed in Xiao's eyes:
"This scripture...is that beautiful?"

"It's not that it looks good. It's just..."

After thinking about it and organizing the language, the emperor, whose eyes fell on the scriptures, said:
"There is a desire in this book that does not belong to a monk."

Xiao Shi was taken aback when he heard this.

"Xuanzang... Didn't Your Majesty say that he is the most outstanding disciple of the Bodhi Temple in the past 500 years? Why do you still...have desires?"

"It's not what I said, it's what Hua Ji said."

Yang Guang smiled and shook his head:

"Indeed, the commentaries on the Agama Sutra, whether it is Wuming from Shaolin Temple, Shanfa monk from Jinshan Zen, or Master Chongwen from Jialan Temple...there are all their unique copies in the palace. But their books are repeated over and over again. It’s all the same set, suffering in this life, cultivating the next life, cultivating something... such as Sudhapan fruit, Sito Han fruit, Ana Han fruit, Arhat fruit, etc. But this monk’s is different.”

"How is it different?"

"This……"

Yang Guang thought for a while, then continued to shake his head:

"It's hard to say. His annotations and understanding of the scriptures are actually the same in the words and sentences. In this life, all sufferings will be done, and in the next life, blessings will be rewarded with Buddhahood... But this is the interesting part. You can't see it when you read the text. What. But after reading the whole article, there is a feeling that... this monk is very dissatisfied."

"Why are you dissatisfied?"

"I don't know. But I can tell that this monk is pursuing something, and at the same time, something restricts his pursuit... Ha, Buddhism also pays attention to this. If you can't get what you want, life is the most bitter. Compared with those eminent monks, Xuanzang's scriptures are the most to my liking. The way of Buddhism...is that people are not like people, but when I come to him, I am obviously dissatisfied, but I can read it. He is pursuing A big change... so interesting."

A look of interest and curiosity appeared on the faces of the emperors of the world.

It's like seeing a handful of lime mixed into a bowl of white noodles.

Obviously the color is the same, but white flour will stick when it meets water, but lime will boil when it meets water...

Interesting.

Seeing this, Xiao also smiled and said:

"Then His Majesty has finished reading it, you have to show this book to your concubine."

"Well, I'll give it to you after reading it this time."

"...If Your Majesty really likes it, why not let Xuanzang enter the palace to give a lecture?"

"That's no use."

This proposal was directly rejected by Yang Guang:
"A monk with great desires, instead of teaching the Dharma, it is better to talk about desires. He is talking... Whether it is the Bodhi Temple or the Buddhism in the world, I have been looking for a way to replace the Taoism for so many years. I am afraid that this hole will be opened. It's inappropriate for this group of people to push their noses to their faces. What's more... Xuanzang is already arguing with people in the city, so let him go."

Xiao frowned:
"Your Majesty is... conniving? If the national teacher doesn't like it..."

"will not."

Yang Guang shook his head slightly:

"Under the rule of the national teacher, for so many years, the Taoist sects in the world have relied on the national teacher, but they are not enterprising. I haven't heard of it for a long time...Where the Taoist priests have any kind deeds of good governance and salvation. The ambition of the Bodhi Temple... Maybe it will become an incentive to stimulate the group of more and more lazy Taoists to devote themselves to cultivating the Tao. I can see it, and the national teacher will naturally not fail to see it."

"Your Majesty... but you are beating?"

"It's not a matter of beating, but the national teacher is the national teacher, and the Taoist school is the Taoist school. I exempt them from taxes, let them wear five-color robes, and are accompanied by famous officials when they go in and out. It is not to make them fat on the credit book. People who are useless in troubled times, if they are useless in prosperous times, then what are these people doing? Right now, only one disciple comes out of Buddhism every 500 years. If this doesn’t motivate them, then they deserve their decline. You go Find the old guy Su Wei and look at the files. All these years, those Taoist priests have not all practiced there..."

Yang Guang sneered.

But Xiao's heart is like a bright mirror.

Although His Majesty said so... But in fact, the biggest knot is because of the eve of the year... There is a national teacher and Xuan Suning in person, but a monster pollutes the dragon's veins and disturbs the interest...

My husband has such a temperament.

When you are in a good mood, you are a loving father, a wise king, and a gentleman who is one in a million.

But when he was in a bad mood, the fire in his heart would keep tugging at his heartstrings, if he couldn't let out this bad breath...it would be uncomfortable no matter what.

Taoism is like this.

So is Goryeo.

Xiao Shi subconsciously pursed his lips...

Suddenly I heard Yang Guang ask:

"By the way, I heard... Suning entered the palace today?"

Xiao Shi nodded:
"Well, I just left not long ago. A few days ago, Meiren Liu and Meiren Feng were pregnant with a dragon son. In order to prevent the fetus from being frightened, my concubine asked Suning to come to the palace and brought Meiren Liu and Meiren Feng to listen to the scriptures all afternoon. When the two left, they seemed to be much stronger."

Yang Guang nodded in satisfaction, and shook his wife's hand:

"Have a heart."

Xiao smiled gently, then raised his mouth as if chatting:
"When Su Ning left, he also asked for a concubine's order."

"Oh?"

Yang Guang raised his eyebrows...

He didn't need his wife to say, he seemed to understand something, and asked:

"But for those folks who dredged up the silt?"

"... Exactly."

"Hi."

Yang Guang was speechless:

"This world is mine's world, but why isn't it the people's world? It's our home, isn't it also theirs? It's a duty to clean up our backyard. Why does she always want to monopolize the power here?  … ...What is she asking for?"

"It's not very important. I said I was going to travel in the clouds. I was worried about the intrusion of common things, and I didn't want to show my face. This time I plan to take Li Shouchu on a trip together. As a disciple, I always have to take care of the teacher's daily life, but I am afraid that he will be swayed by others." If you don’t want to disturb me, I asked for the order that seeing them is like seeing courtiers and concubines in person, and that idlers and others should not be disturbed.”

Hearing this, Yang Guang laughed even more speechlessly:
"I'm afraid... Su Ning doesn't like the approach of idlers. It's a lie. Is it true that I see you in person? With that order, the water officials and craftsmen will not disobey. What she says is what she says... Tsk tsk... ..."

After all, the emperor who has all the rights in the world doesn't seem to care much.

Just thinking about it, I suddenly asked:
"Speaking of...then Li Shouchu's injury has healed?"

"Hmm...it should be about the same?"

Xiao Shi was also a little uncertain.

Seeing Yang Guang nodded:

"Well... don't tell me, I don't have a bad impression of him. Over the years, He'er has reported the situation in various places, and I can always see some people from other places who are greedy for the red world... If nothing else, just Let’s talk about Yuan Zhen from Pegasus City. This year, she was promoted to the fourth rank... She seems to be a person who has achieved the Tao, right? But... the night Zhu Huai arrived in Pegasus City, if it wasn’t for Li Shouchu who shouted in the city If he said that he must be killed, I am afraid that many people will die at the hands of those Jianghu people. And at that time...he is a little Taoist who has left the world."

As he said that, the emperor had a little emotion on his face:

"The monks... are not afraid of low skills, what they fear is that they don't have a compassionate heart to help the world and save people. This Taoist priest has done a good job. Although he has disturbed the situation in Pegasus City, at least his character is here. Loyalty. No wonder Su Ning allowed him to call a teacher...But Yuanzhen was lucky, he didn't see anyone all night, but he became a fourth-rank mage last year...Who are you talking about. It's really..."

"Why is Your Majesty suddenly so interested in Pegasus City recently? Before... weren't they... very disobedient?"

Using the safest wording to avoid displeasing Yang Guang, Xiao asked.

But Yang Guang smiled proudly:

"Haha~ He'er's strategy last time was very successful. Pegasus City is aware of current affairs, and Sun Jingchan is already on the way. Before the Ministry of War always said that there was not enough food and grass, now [-] grain and grass are on the way. When spring begins, Zhang Xutuo's side will not have any. The worries about food and grass were eliminated.

Not to mention those ten thousand good horses... And now, when the three thousand forbidden troops carefully selected by the old man Suwei arrive at Pegasus City, with their current courage and courage, these three thousand soldiers, as well as the nearby Wuwei County The army is the whip that drives them.Such a good piece of fat has already been eaten into my stomach, do you think I can be more careful? "

As soon as the words fell, Huang Xizi's voice sounded at the door:

"Your Majesty, empress, it's time to eat."

"Ah."

Yang Guang responded and drank the sugar water boiled by his wife in one gulp.

Looking very comfortable, he said:

"Let's go."

"Yes."

A man and a woman, a dragon and a phoenix, walked out of the Palace of Qinzheng together.

Only the scriptures that have not been read are left.

……

With this decree, it means that Xuan Suning can interfere with the "project progress" of those peasants at any time.

Whether it is Luoshui or Yishui, there is no such thing as shallow grass to have shallow water without horseshoes.

At that time, if there is something that is easy to die, she can justifiably intervene.

Intervene, stop, go in person.

Everything is just for the unified goal of the two of them:
"Less death."

Only.

Therefore, from seeing this will, Li Zhen felt at ease.

It seems... the two people's thoughts are synchronized.

Fewer deaths and fewer tragedies are good for this "scarred" world.

And looking at the disciple who couldn't suppress the smile on his face after he took out the will, Xuan Suning was also quite satisfied in his heart.

There was even a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction that... never appeared in the past.

As a disciple, one can understand the heart of the teacher.

Being able to express the joy from the heart together with the teacher.

At this point, it shows that the souls of the two are also common.

That's good.

So she asked:

"Shou Chu."

"what?"

"Happy?"

"...um, haha..."

Looking at Li Zhen who couldn't help laughing out loud, the female Taoist also had a smile that would bring disaster to the country and the people.

"Go back to the mountain."

"Hey, okay...how about getting on the horse, Teacher?"

"It's okay."

Rejecting the disciple's thoughtfulness, the female Taoist took the lead and walked sideways, squinting at Zhou Tianxing above her head.

The stars flicker.

Candid.

Beautiful.
