Chapter 43
……

In the palace, Li Shimin's majestic expression showed a hint of anger, "Go and see what happened outside!"

Xuanzang made a lot of noise, the vast Buddha light descended directly over the entire palace, although it was quickly defeated by the aura of the civil servants and generals in the hall, but for the emperor, it was not hesitant to be a provocation.

Soon, the imperial guard ran back: "Your Majesty, it is Master Xuanzang of Hongfu Temple..." After speaking, he told the matter of the debate.

"Xuanzang?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and when his eyes fell on Chen Guangrui, his frowning brows slowly relaxed: "Looking at the situation, Xuanzang's Buddhist attainments are very high?"

When he rewarded Xuanzang to go to Hongfu Temple for further study, he just took a fancy to his background. As for the profound attainments of Buddhism, he didn't care about it. After all, Xuanzang was too young.

Yuan Tiangang from Qin Tianjian came out, "If you go back to the emperor, I feel that at least you must be at the peak of foundation establishment!"

As soon as these words came out, those generals couldn't sit still, and they turned their attention to Yin Kaishan.

"Sure enough, you are a general, Lao Yin, your grandson is amazing!" Yuchi Gong said without restraint, regardless of Yin Kaishan's just lost his daughter, he couldn't help joking.

Yin Kaishan snorted and ignored him.

The eyes of others are a bit complicated. When the rumors spread in the city, everyone still felt a little embarrassed for Yin Kaishan, but now it seems that it is not the same thing at all. What does it mean to be a foundation builder? , They all knew it in their hearts, not to mention that Xuanzang was still so young, and his future achievements were even more immeasurable.

Li Shimin quickly guessed the thoughts of these people, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, they are young heroes. Didn't Tubo send some monks over this time, just to let them see what is called the Kingdom of Heaven... ..."

Datang has been using troops against Tuyuhun all these years, and has tried to be friendly with Tubo who is farther away, and Tubo has always maintained a good relationship with Datang on the surface for its own interests. Send envoys, come and go frequently.However, not long ago Songtsan Gampo of Tubo suddenly sent an envoy to Chang'an to propose marriage to a princess of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin naturally disagreed. The eminent monks exchanged Dharma.

Li Shimin loves to save face, he has been hesitant since he heard that Buddhism in Tubo is at its peak, this time they are all eminent monks, but seeing Xuanzang's demeanor now is a reassurance.

……

In Hongfu Temple, the attitude of the monks looking at Xuanzang changed 180 degrees, and the rumors circulating in the market also unknowingly collapsed.

In their view, Xuanzang, who displayed the "miracle", must be the reincarnation of a certain Bodhisattva or Buddha.

At this moment, a little monk ran over in a panic.

"Master Xuanzang, Master Xuanzang, the imperial decree came from the palace..."

Xuanzang's face changed slightly, and he looked at Li Yi nervously.

"Don't worry, if there is anything, the senior brother will carry it with you!" Li Yi said seriously.

Xuanzang looked grateful, and walked out accompanied by Li Yi.

The old eunuch who delivered the decree had seen it in the palace before, and Li Yi obviously found that the old guy looked at Xuanzang with awe-filled eyes, and he was surprised for a while. Thinking about it, he heard the old eunuch laugh and say: "Master Xuanzang, Accept the order!"

Xuanzang settled down, and respectfully offered a Buddha ceremony.

The imperial court took great care of these Buddhist monks, and did not need to kneel like ordinary subjects to receive orders.

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: Today, there are eminent monks Bo Chanbu, Shan Wudi, and Vajra Mojie from Tianlong Temple in Daxue Mountain, Tubo, who have come to Tang Dynasty to have an audience. Master Xuanzang is specially called to go to the hall to have an audience."

Xuanzang was a little dazed, these foreign monks came to see Tang, why did they call him into the palace.

"Master Xuanzang, please accept the order!" Seeing Xuanzang in a daze, the old eunuch reminded him kindly.

Xuanzang looked at Li Yi subconsciously, and hesitated: "Just call me alone?"

The old eunuch had followed Emperor Taizong for many years, and his ability to figure out people's hearts had already reached its peak, so he said, "It's okay to bring a few people there."

Xuanzang was overjoyed, "Brother..."

"It's okay, I will enter the palace with you." Li Yi was still so understanding.

The old eunuch saw Li Yi once, and said with a smile: "Then I will invite the two mages Xuanzang and Xuanyi to accompany the officials!"

Li Yi didn't expect the other party to remember his dharma name, and he thought that he really needed some skills to be a good eunuch these days.

……

The three of them soon entered the palace. In the main hall, all civil and military officials were holding jade wats, wearing full crowns and formal attire, with serious expressions on their faces.

Li Yi looked at these people curiously, secretly guessing their identities.

Li Shimin is not surprised by Li Yi's arrival. In fact, he discovered Xuanzang's dependence on this senior brother Xuanyi from the very beginning, but that's okay. Although he can't trust Li Yi like he trusts Xuanzang, he doesn't mind. Take advantage of this chess piece that comes to you.

Thinking about it, let Xuanzang stand next to the crown prince Li Chengqian, and said to the servant next to him, "Come in, let the Tubo delegation come in!"

Baiguan's expression was startled, and they looked away from Xuanzang and looked outside the door.

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a felt hat in Tibetan clothes strode in. Behind him, the three monks who followed were getting bigger and bigger.

"The Tubo envoy Chide Haye pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!" The middle-aged man bowed and bowed, followed by the three monks who followed him.

"Stay flat!" Li Shimin raised his hand, and sat on the dragon chair in an even and dignified manner.

When Chide Haye came in, he saw Li Yi and the two of them. He dismissed them in his heart, but said respectfully on his face: "I have come all the way, but seeing Confucianism and Taoism prevailing in the Tang Dynasty, the country is rich and the people are strong. The country, the state of propriety and righteousness'..."

All civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty nodded secretly, thinking that the sycophant skills of the barbarians are almost comparable to theirs.

Li Yi noticed the cunning flashing in this man's eyes, and sure enough, he heard the other party continue: "However, Tang people are greedy for lust and joy in misfortune, but Wuwu Tubo's Buddhism is pure, good and upright, and the three of my Zanpu sect A master came here because he wanted the two sides to learn from each other, to complement each other..."

It is obvious that the marriage proposal was unsuccessful, and he wanted to use the hands of these monks to vent his anger, but he did not say the matter in such a high-sounding manner.

Before changing it, Li Shimin would probably be very angry, but looking at Xuanzang who looked indifferently, he was full of confidence in his heart, "Is that so, although my dynasty focuses on Confucianism and educates the world, the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism are also Very prosperous, masters come forth in large numbers..."

Chide Haye followed Li Shimin's gaze to Xuanzang, and laughed a little: "Your Majesty is not talking about this little master, is it? Your Majesty may not know that the Tantra Buddhism that prevails in our Tubo is different from the Central Plains, but is Using mudras and mantras in conjunction with physical training can help people break through the shackles of the physical body and break through the realm of martial arts..."

Li Shimin's eyes were fixed, looking at Xuanzang's small body, and then at those burly foreign monks, it seemed that he would not be his opponent no matter what.

But fortunately, he had heard about Li Yi's beheading of Liu Hong from Yin Kaishan before, and now this chess piece came in handy, thinking about it, he looked at Li Yi: "What do you think? "

"Coincidentally, the Buddhism of our Jinshan Temple can also be used to break the shackles of the physical body and break through the realm of martial arts..." Li Yi stepped forward and smiled.

Except for Yin Kaishan, most people have never heard of Li Yi's existence, let alone his ability, and couldn't help frowning for a while, thinking that this young monk is young and energetic, and his words are too impulsive!

Although there are also monks in the Buddhist sect of the Tang Dynasty, they have never heard of any one who has broken through to the foundation-building period. Even those masters that Li Yi had previously discussed in Hongfu Temple, in fact, they all broke through to the foundation-building period by virtue of their Buddhist attainments. Although they also have some martial arts skills, they are still inferior to real warriors after all.

In fact, although Buddhism has always been famous for its physical body tempering in the practice world, it was only reflected in the golden body cultivation after the relic period (that is, the foundation building period of Taoism).

Back then, Elder Fa Ming created the Tongzi Kung Fu in Jinshan Temple because he wanted to create a martial arts technique to break the shackles that monks could not break through the qi refining period.

However, although his realm is terrifyingly high, it is precisely this kind of strategic planning that makes him too idealistic, and on the contrary, he has fallen into some misunderstandings.After all, treating ants is not necessarily easier than treating people. If Faming can create a more advanced supernatural power technique, it will be much easier...
