Chapter 554 Xuanzang Returns
In 642 A.D., King Rongri, the supreme leader of Wutianzhu, issued an imperial order to the whole of India: he would hold an unprecedented large-scale open-ended meeting in Qunu City (now Kanauj, Uttar Pradesh, India). (Buddhist scriptures debate).

Eighteen kings were invited to this Unsheltered Conference, as well as more than 3000 Buddhist monks from various countries, more than [-] monks from the famous Buddhist shrine Nalanda Temple, and more than [-] Brahmins and other religions...

Almost all the political and religious elites of Wutianzhu gathered here.And they came here with only one purpose: to have a free debate with a monk from China.

For eighteen whole days, the whole Qunv City was crowded with people and the sound of gongs and drums.In addition to the invited representatives, celebrities from all over the world, ministers, guards and people from all walks of life came here admiringly.

Clouds and mists surged, filling tens of kilometers, the grandeur of the scene was unprecedented, and it was rare in a hundred years.

When people poured into the venue, they saw a monk sitting on the precious bed of the high altar.He has a clear face and fair complexion, and he sits there quietly.

Hanging above the gate tower of the venue are two Mahayana Buddhist treatises written in large characters, "Hui Zong Lun" and "Restraining Evil Views".

There was a lot of discussion, but the monk was not affected by these discussions at all.He just sat quietly like that, as if the hustle and bustle of the world had nothing to do with him, his delicate face was neither sad nor happy, calm and composed.

There was nothing, and where did you get the dust?
This is a contest of life and death.Because as long as anyone can find out one word in the two works written by this monk that is unreasonable and refute it, he will have his head cut off on the spot and apologize to everyone!

Those here are by no means idle.They are all the most knowledgeable and wise people in Tianzhu, who have profound attainments in Buddhism!And it is simply impossible for this monk from Dongtu Great Tang to dare to let go of such remarks!
However, a miracle just happened!
During these [-] days, people came out to challenge and raised sharp questions, but the monks on the stage always looked calm, responded calmly, and quoted scriptures.

In the end, all the challengers refused to answer their questions, and finally had to be convinced and surrender!
King Rongri was very happy.A large amount of gold, silver and vestments were given to the monk on the spot, and the eighteen kings present also offered various treasures one after another.According to the practice of Tianzhu, the winner of the Uncovered Conference can ride a majestic elephant with a necklace and parade around various places to receive the admiration of the world.

But the monk refused!And his indifferent and detached attitude towards fame and fortune has won people's respect more and more.His reputation then spread throughout Tianzhu.

The Mahayana monks praised him as "Mahayana Heaven", and the Theravada monks respected him as "Liberation Heaven".

This Chinese monk who came from the Great Tang Dynasty in the East, who was famous in five Tianzhu and finally wrote a glorious page in the history of world Buddhism is Xuanzang!

Since the first year of Zhenguan, he has been trying to leave the customs, and several failures have not stopped his desire to go west to seek the law.

The future is uncertain, life and death are unpredictable.

But when he came, he used his own feet, step by step, to pass through many passes, across the endless desert yellow sand, the deserted Gobi wasteland, and go towards the most steadfast Buddha's heart in his heart!

The officials chased him, lacked water and food, lost his way, and almost died in unknown places several times.But all of this failed to force him to shake, and he returned to the east sadly.

This trip is not for profit or reputation, but for the supreme Dharma.

If you don't go to Tianzhu, you will never go back east!
This is the Hongyuan issued by Xuanzang when he stepped out of Chang'an. He would rather die in the west than live in the east. The power of faith destined him to become a saint, an extraordinary person!

After this Uncovered Conference, Xuanzang also felt that his mission had been successfully completed. Last year, he bid farewell to Master Jiexian and King Rongri and returned to China.

Back with him, there are 657 Sanskrit Buddhist texts of high academic value.

The news spread back to Datang, causing a sensation in the whole country!
As soon as he entered the customs, there were horses rushing to Beijing to report this great event to the emperor!
And Yang Xiaoran, who was about to die from vomiting due to pregnancy, heard about this, and he didn't know whether he was happy or what, but he got better!

She wants to go back to Xiaoqingzhuang!

This is her agreement with Master Xuanzang!
Thinking of these, my heart is agitated!
The separation in the second year of Zhenguan, it has been a full 16 years!

It is foreseeable that when Xuanzang enters Beijing, this time will have to be postponed, that is 17 years!

How many 17 years are there in life?
She must abide by the agreement with Xuanzang back then!When he comes back, he must wait in Xiaoqingzhuang again, receive him, and listen to the Dharma!

Li Shimin was also amazed that there was a monk who could run all the way out of the checkpoint, across the vast desert, alone, and now came back from his studies. How touching is this spirit?
A group of ministers also began to flatter.

The reign of the Holy Son of Heaven is the merit of enlightenment!

So out of the saints!
When Yang Xiaoran heard Li Chengqian say this, he really wanted to take off his shoehorn and slap it in the face of those ministers who flattered him!

NND!
Is this Master Xuanzang's Buddha heart firm?What's the matter with Li Xiaoer?You went after him back then!

Now that it bears fruit, I can't wait to pick it, shameless, shameless!

"Did you even send money to him back then?"

Li Shimin stared wide-eyed, "There are still horses? Did you give him your badge?"

Then he sighed a long time, and said: "No wonder you can get out of the customs smoothly, you girl is not small! Knowing the law and breaking the law..."

Yang Xiaoran laughed straight, and said: "Aunt, my daughter-in-law will meet. Seeing Chen Xuanzang's handsome face and extraordinary perseverance, I feel that he must have great achievements, can shine in the past and present, and leave a name in history, so I helped him."

Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh when he saw her playful smile, showing no fear at all, and said: "Chengqian is right, I'm too indulgent of you, you are so courageous!"

After a pause, he continued: "But! You have done a great merit this time! You didn't miss it! Now he is famous all over Tianzhu and my Tang Dynasty. He is a generation of eminent monks and great virtues. Buddhism is of great benefit, and I ordered the states and counties I pass by to receive him well, and I just wait for him to come to the capital to see me."

Li Shimin murmured: "I used to not believe in heaven, earth, gods and Buddhas, but this man is old and has experienced many things, so he is inevitably confused. He is a great monk and a great virtuous monk, and he also enjoys a high reputation in the five heavens." For eighteen days, all the educated people in India failed to identify him. I also want to bathe in the light of the Buddha and listen to the teachings of the Buddha..."

Yang Xiaoran pouted.

Looking at your appearance, you are clearly dissatisfied and want to take the postgraduate entrance examination for Tang Seng.

But the master can subdue the elder brother, so why can't he subdue you, Li Xiaoer?

Wash your neck and wait to be taught by Master Tang Seng!

Seeing that her eyeballs were spinning around again, Li Shimin was furious: "Are you planning me in your heart again?! Ah?!"

"what!"

Yang Xiaoran hurriedly touched his eyelids, and said again and again: "Father, no, no, my daughter-in-law didn't..."

“父?皇?”

Li Shimin was stunned there.

Yang Xiaoran's face turned dark.

Li Xiaoer had a sudden attack, which startled a certain girl. In a moment of desperation, he actually called out those names in the TV literary works of his previous life.

Looking at Li Xiaoer anxiously...

Strange things happened.

The anger slowly faded from Li Er's face, and changed into a sullen face, touched his beard, smacked his mouth, "Well, the combination of these two words feels different. After all, it is the Tian Family, so the name must be different from that of Pang De. From now on, I will call you Emperor Father... Well, let the children call themselves sons and ministers in the future..."

I go!

This history has undergone such subtle and dramatic changes right under our noses? !
Yang Xiaoran only felt a group of crows flying over his head, one of them called Li Xiaoer croaked a few times, and then pulled a lump...

Crashing picture!
"If the queen is here, what should I call her?"

Got it!
Is that guy still there YY?This thinking association ability is also powerful enough.

"My daughter-in-law thinks it's better to call her mother..."

"Well, not bad! Quick thinking! Let's call it that from now on..."

This will probably be recorded in the history books, right?Yang Xiaoran looked embarrassed, and looked at the clerk over there...

Well, this source will come from us in the future, and it can be regarded as a famous name in history!

After the little episode, Li Er obviously had a good memory, so he asked again: "What were you arranging for me just now?"

"Where?"

Naturally, Yang Xiaoran yelled that he was wronged, and hurriedly put aside the subject and said: "Ah, oh, no, father and daughter-in-law have an agreement with that Master Xuanzang, and when he comes back from learning the scriptures, he will definitely have a vegetarian banquet in Xiaoqingzhuang Sushou and listen to the Dharma. "

After a pause, he continued: "The elder brother of the prince is grateful for his mother's kindness, and it will take another two years for the Da Ci'en Temple to be built. My daughter-in-law is thinking, this master Xuanzang must not be reincarnated in an ordinary way, why not let Master Xuanzang go to the Da Ci'en Temple As host?"

Li Shimin thought for a while, and said: "Then let's go together. I haven't left the palace for a long time. It should be spring next year when Xuanzang returns to the capital, but you should have just given birth then, right?"

"It's okay to go in a carriage. How can you break the promise of a gentleman?"

Li Shimin nodded in agreement, and said, "Well, this statement is reasonable. It's just that Xuanzang is a man of great perseverance, not only proficient in Buddhism, but also proficient in Confucianism. ..."

I go!

How come your old man has such a big brain? (This is true, Li Shimin really wants Tang Monk to return to secular life and become a politician)

However, Master Xuanzang is dedicated to Buddha, so I am afraid he is not willing to work for you old man.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaoran pursed his lips and laughed, Fushen said: "Ah, ah, no, Father, why don't you ask him then?"

Li Shimin glanced at Yang Xiaoran, seemed to realize something, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't change your mouth if you're not used to it. I just thought of it on a whim."

I go!

Has your elder reached menopause?
How did it change?
Yang Xiaoran was a little speechless.

"You're playing smart again. Hehe..."

Li Shimin smiled, "I am afraid that such a person with great perseverance will not want to get involved in this worldly matter. I want to try him and see if this high-ranking official can break his Buddha's heart? If he still refuses, let him go to the university." Ci'en Temple, write down what you have seen and heard in the Western Regions over the years, so as to pass it on to future generations!"

 Hey, my paws are too much to handle, they are all swollen, today is even worse for two chapters, take a rest
