Take the farm down to earth

Chapter 592 Attracting attention and creating a star

Having been the governor of Fumo for 500 years, Shi Zhongkui understands better that the battle between gods and gods is often more cruel.

Holding the hand of Sanshengmu, he returned to the back house with Baochai and Baoqin who were also worried. After seeing Yingchun, Daiyu and other aunts, Shi Zhongkui quickly calmed down.

the next day.

At the waterway conference, Shi Zhongkui didn't care whether the eminent monks had already selected Jiang Liu'er, and waved directly at Jiang Liu'er, who was only 8 years old in actual age but looked like a teenager.

"Little master, would you like to be the host of this waterway meeting?"

As for why in the original Journey to the West, it is clearly stated that Chen Guangrui was the number one scholar in the early years of Zhenguan.

When Tang Seng traveled westward in the 13th year of Zhenguan, it was an adult man's problem. Shi Zhongkui didn't want to worry about it, and he couldn't care about it.

Anyway, in this world, Tang Seng is his own son, and his father is extraordinary, so the son he gave birth to is naturally extraordinary.

It couldn't be more normal to grow into a youth at the age of eight.

Seeing that Shi Zhongkui directly appointed Jiang Liuer, all the eminent monks were surprised.

Some people are still hesitating, and naturally some eminent monks think that Shi Zhongkui has also been conquered by Jiang Liuer's temperament and appearance.

Since everyone agrees, it means that the heroes see the same thing, which makes Jiang Liuer even more extraordinary.

Moreover, Shi Zhongkui was the emperor's son-in-law, and was highly praised by the nobles and important officials of the Tang Dynasty. If he recognized Jiang Liu'er, it would be easier to make Jiang Liu'er famous.

After reporting to Li Shimin, the emperor didn't care why Shi Zhongkui chose a little novice monk who was still a child and not much famous.

Sure enough, as the monks expected, they summoned Jiang Liuer and a few eminent monks who were not low in reputation and had never opposed the royal family, and followed Shi Zhongkui to the palace.

When he saw Jiang Liuer's youthful appearance, Li Shimin was surprised. If he hadn't gone to the underworld, the emperor might have thought Jiang Liuer was a monster.

Immediately, he became curious and asked Jiang Liu'er about his knowledge repeatedly, and even discussed Buddhism with him.

Li Shimin is the real emperor on horseback. Although he doesn't like Buddhism, he is familiar with military books and knows the truth of "know yourself and know your enemy".

Since I have troubled the Buddhists before, I will take the initiative to read some Buddhist scriptures first, so that when I argue with the monks, I don't even understand what the other party says, let alone 'use the spear of the other to attack the shield of the other'.

And to be honest, many Buddhist scriptures are really good.

But the emperor doesn't care about these, what he wants is someone who can help him maintain his rule.

Not to mention that the scriptures are scriptures, monks are monks, and people have greed. Li Shimin still understands this very well.

After asking this question, he quickly discovered that Jiang Liu'er was worthy of being a child prodigy recommended by the Buddhist family.

Although he seems unworldly and pedantic, his knowledge and Buddhist teachings are not low, and his looks are indeed extraordinary, so he can't help but feel good about him.

Smiling, he said to Shi Zhongkui, "My son-in-law really has vision. This monk is sincerely an eminent monk with virtue and a Zen mind."

Then he said to Jiang Liu'er, "I bestow upon you the left monk gang and the right monk gang. The whole world will explain the position of the monk gang."

The so-called 'Monk Gang' means management.

And 'Du Seng Gang' is the world monk who leads the world.

The left and right monk gangs are like the left and right servants, they are both deputy.

Shi Zhongkui didn't even need to guess after listening to it, he knew that Li Shimin's strategy was a trick.

The left and right monk gangs and the capital monk gang are all in one person, and 100% of the monks will be jealous of Jiang Liuer.

Once there is trouble, it is inevitable for the Buddhist school to make a fool of itself.

How could Jiang Liu'er understand these privacy calculations, she was overjoyed and thanked her.

At first glance, he looks like a fool who is studying hard. He talks about the profound Buddhist teachings, but he is inevitably influenced by power, fame and fortune.

The expressions on the faces of the monks who came with him were unnatural.

Li Shimin also saw this, and silently smiled at Shi Zhongkui.

Shi Zhongkui curled his lips and nodded slightly in response to Li Shimin.

The emperor really misunderstood, secretly said that the son-in-law is worthy of being an immortal who has practiced for hundreds of years, this method of calculating people has no trace, it is indeed extraordinary.

When Jiang Liu'er received the official rank of Dachan, the emperor gave him a cassock woven in gold with five colors and a Pilu hat.

Teach him to pay homage to Ming monks with his heart, arrange seats for the eminent monks participating in the waterway meeting, and select the heads of the squad to assist, but not to give these heads of the squad official positions.

These people are also required to prepare documents to record the event so that it can be known to the world, which is regarded as free prostitution.

Then the monks were ordered to go to Huasheng Temple, and when the auspicious day was selected, the scriptures would be performed.

Jiang Liu'er was full of joy, and bowed to the emperor to lead the decree and went out.

When we arrived at Huasheng Temple, we gathered many eminent monks, first built a meditation couch, decorated the merit book, and ordered people to confirm and arrange the music for the waterway meeting.

However, Jiang Liu'er doesn't understand scheming, but those old monks are not stupid.

In the end, a total of [-] monks, big and small, were selected. Everyone had a share, and everyone got a job.

He also assigned the upper, middle and lower halls to clarify responsibilities, which can be regarded as temporarily stabilizing the interior.

It is determined that the third day of September this year is an excellent auspicious day, and the "Water and Land Conference" will start on July 49.

The Bodhisattva had been worried for many days, and was relieved when he saw that the waterway meeting was finally held, and it was also paid attention to by Emperor Tang.

But Shi Zhongkui was too quiet, which made the Bodhisattva feel a little uneasy.

Thinking about it carefully, I still plan to give Jiang Liu'er some treasures bestowed by the Buddha as a bodyguard as soon as possible, lest Shi Zhongkui really have a plan and even harm the reincarnated Jin Chanzi, and the selected Buddhist learners don't even have a bodyguard.

At the beginning, the Buddha himself said, "With the Jinlan cassock, you can avoid reincarnation" and "With the nine-ring tin staff, you will not be poisoned."

It can be seen that these two treasures seem ordinary, but they are actually very likely to be good treasures.

As for whether the Buddha is bragging, you can only know if you try it.

The Bodhisattva turned into an old monk again, wearing an ordinary gray robe, a white beard, bare feet, and a bald head.

He took Mu Zha, who had transformed into a little novice monk, with a nine-ringed tin rod in his hand, and the wrapped Jinlan cassock, and went out with three hoops tightly bound by Jin.

Wandering in the street for a while, I suddenly saw a dozen monks walking towards me with smiles on their faces, and immediately ordered Mu Zha to take out the Jinlan cassock.

A dozen or so monks saw that the cassock was gorgeous and full of brilliance, and the seven Buddhist treasures on it were even more radiant and full of precious aura.

One can tell at a glance that this cassock is an extraordinary treasure.

Immediately, a monk came forward and asked, "That skinny monk, how much do you sell your cassock for?"

The Bodhisattva saw the dozen or so monks taking the bait, and said with a smile, "The cassock is worth 5000 taels, and the tin staff is worth 2000 taels."

A dozen or so monks were immediately taken aback. It was the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and silver was not of ordinary value.

"Aren't these two skinny monks crazy? Or are they stupid? How dare you sell these two rough things for 7000 taels of silver?

Unless you wear it to live forever, you have to become a Buddha and become a ancestor, which is worth so much.Otherwise, even if you sell it in the palace, don't even try to sell it. "

The Bodhisattva would not argue with these dozens of people. Taking out the cassock was originally to attract the attention of the people.
