Fortunately, as the sound of chanting resounded throughout the square of Nianhua Temple, Lin Qingran gradually let go of the worries in her heart without any discomfort. On the contrary, the chanting of Master Kong Xin and others also calmed down the mind. , like a cleansing of the soul.

This feeling was very relaxing and comfortable. Lin Qingran closed her eyes and enjoyed it.

The chanting time is very long, but it does not make people feel boring. The sunshine today is good. As Master Kongxin and the others chant, the surroundings are shrouded in sunlight, like a fairyland on earth.

Lin Qingran accidentally discovered such beautiful scenery and felt that the trip was well worth it.

As for whether she wanted to discuss Buddhist principles with Master Kong Xin, Lin Qingran didn't care at all. She enjoyed the unique scenery and it was not in vain.

I don’t know how long it took, but the chanting was over, and the next step was to talk about Buddhism.

"Everyone, today everyone can discuss Buddhism with the poor monk. Regardless of men, women, old or young, the poor monk will treat him equally." Master Kong Xin said with his hands clasped together.

After hearing this, many people were eager to try it, both men and women.

Everyone already knew about Xiao Heng's coming here. Now of course they wanted to show off in front of Xiao Heng, so the first person to speak soon appeared.

Since it was not too early now, some courtiers also came here after the morning court to participate in the flower-carrying ceremony, but they just came to listen, and most of them came because Xiao Heng came.

The person who spoke was obviously someone who wanted to show off in front of Xiao Heng. After all, people in the royal family still had a reverence for Buddhism.

"Master Kongxin, I don't understand. All living beings suffer, so how can we avoid suffering?" asked a young courtier.

When asking, his eyes unconsciously looked towards Xiao Heng not far away.

It's a pity that Xiao Heng didn't care about the other party, and his eyes fell on him miserably. He just stood there and talked to Mu Feng in a low voice, and no one could hear him.

"Your Highness must have noticed that this person came here just for His Highness and wanted to show off in front of His Highness." Mu Feng said in a low voice.

Lin Qingran nodded, "Mu Feng is right, that's right."

Xiao Heng looked indifferent, "No need to pay attention, Ran Ran wants to discuss Buddhism with Master Kong Xin?"

"See you later." Lin Qingran replied.

[If this hollow master is just like I imagined, he only knows how to paint cakes, brainwash, do good things, and repay evil with kindness, I will definitely say something. 】

[There are so many people here today. If they are all persuaded by Master Kong Xin, we don’t know what will happen in the future. Some of the words of Buddhism are not necessarily correct. 】

[Of course, I’m not saying that Buddhism is not good. It’s okay to use it to calm your mind, but it may still make little sense to use it as a benchmark for life. It’s simply wronging yourself. 】

Xiao Heng was a little surprised by Lin Qingran's thoughts. Not only Xiao Heng, but also several other people who could hear Lin Qingran's thoughts also thought so.

As these people chatted, Master Kongxin also answered the question for the man, and the conversation between the two ended.

Immediately afterwards, several more people came to talk to Master Kong Xin, but they were all persuaded by Master Kong Xin. Instead, they felt that their ideas were very wrong, and their faces looked a little unsightly.

Master Kongxin is not a bad person, he just admires everything about Buddhism too much. If it were placed in modern times, it would be like a Buddha. Lin Qingran moved and spoke directly.

"Master Kong Xin, I also have some questions that I would like Master to answer. I wonder if Master can answer them for me?" Lin Qingran said softly.

Since the surroundings were relatively quiet, Lin Qingran's words reached everyone's ears.

In an inconspicuous place, jealousy flashed in the eyes of a woman dressed as a young lady. The maid behind her whispered a few words in her ear. The woman nodded with satisfaction and looked at Lin Qingran with an unclear look. Soon Lower your eyes.

Lin Qingran's attention was on Master Hollow at the moment, and he didn't pay attention to anyone else, not to mention that the other person just glanced at him and then looked away.

"Princess, feel free to speak." Master Kong Xin said.

In fact, Master Kong Xin also has some sense of superiority. After all, for so many years, he will be pushed to a very high position in every flower-handling conference. It is even more unexpected that the prince and princess are here this year.

Hearing this, Lin Qingran nodded and said some of what was in her heart.

"Buddha says that all living beings are suffering, and the sufferings of these living beings include eight sufferings: the suffering of birth, the suffering of old age, the suffering of illness, the suffering of death, the suffering of love and separation, the suffering of resentment and hatred, the suffering of not being able to seek what you want, and the suffering of the five yin blazing. I don't know what Master Kongxin thinks. "Can such suffering be solved by chanting sutras in front of the Buddha?" Lin Qingran said.

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings fell into a strange silence. Even Master Kong Xin looked embarrassed. He originally thought that the princess was talking about some Buddhist words, but it didn't seem to be the case.

Why do these words sound like they are here to cause trouble?

Master Kongxin immediately put aside the thoughts in his mind. Nianhua Temple has always been on good terms with the royal family, and the princess should not do such a thing.

"Amitabha, all living beings are equal. There are eight kinds of suffering in life. Everyone has to go through hardships before they can be at ease. The Crown Princess is born in a noble family and is married to a prince. She does not need to suffer more. She must have done good deeds in her previous life. This can only be done in this life. It is not that chanting sutras in front of the Buddha can solve the eight sufferings in life, but facing these eight sufferings with a different kind of mind. Does the princess think the poor monk is right?" Master Kong Xin asked.

Lin Qingran smiled, but shook his head directly, indicating that he did not agree with Master Kong Xin's statement.

"Master Kongxin, I think what you said is wrong, or the so-called Buddhist words are wrong. In life, people and things are never viewed from a Buddhist perspective. I think the so-called eight sufferings are nonsense. Lin Qingran spoke without mercy.

Hearing this, except for Xiao Heng, everyone else's expressions changed. After all, Lin Qingran's words could be said to be treasonous.

The relationship between the royal family and the temple is good, and the nobles in the palace often go out of the palace to worship the Buddha once or twice a year. Therefore, the status of the monks in the temple is not low in the Tianyuan Kingdom.

But Lin Qingran would not tolerate them. She wanted to express her feelings today.

Master Kongxin is now sure that the princess is here to cause trouble, otherwise she would not have said these words. Thinking of this, Master Kongxin's face became a little serious.

"What does the Crown Princess mean by this?" Master Kongxin asked.

Lin Qingran was not in a hurry to answer his words, and then a female voice not far below sounded in the square.

"That's right, what does the Crown Princess mean by these words? Is this because she wants to risk the disapproval of the world and overthrow everything in Buddhism?" (End of this chapter)
