Datang: Son-in-law, I beg you to come out of the mountain

Looking at his rough sackcloth, even his shaved head is not so refreshing, he must not have oiled his scalp!

He looked so poor, he didn't look like a monk in a monastery who had made a lot of money!
How is this a master?Could it be a liar?
Yang Zhuo couldn't be cheated, right? !

"Come! Drink tea!" Yang Zhuo poured a cup of tea for Huineng and said politely.

Huineng smiled slightly: "My lord, you are being polite."

"Hey, it's really hot, and my mouth is parched." Li Shimin said sourly while holding the child.

special!
I have been here for so long, Yang Zhuo is not even willing to give him a piece of tea!
When this bald donkey came, he poured tea for him politely?

Who is this looking down upon? !

Is it a display to be the emperor?
"If you want to drink tea, pour it yourself." After Yang Zhuo finished speaking, he continued to chat with Huineng.

Li Shimin...

"My lord, the poor monk came today to discuss Buddhism with you." Huineng put his hands together and said.

"Okay! Anyway, I'm free today." Yang Zhuo said with a smile.

Li Shimin...

You salty fish!When are you not free?
"Discussing Buddhism, how can I be missing?" Li Shimin said loudly, he wants to show his presence!
Yang Zhuo looked at Li Shimin disdainfully, and said, "Keep your voice down, don't disturb my daughter's sleep."

Li Shimin was stunned, and lowered his voice: "I was a young expert in Dharma debate back then! I defeated the invincible opponent in the world! No one can argue against me! Even the eminent monks in temples have never won! You can't discuss Buddhism without me, Otherwise, you will not understand thoroughly!"

"Come on? Old Li! How many catties are you? I know best. If it weren't for your status, who would buy you? Let you take the first place?"

Just like in "Full Tang Poetry", Li Shimin's poem ranks first!
If it weren't for him being the emperor, with his level and his poems, there would be no chance of being included in "Full Tang Poetry".

Li Shimin:  …

In the whole Tang Dynasty, only Yang Zhuo dared to hurt him like this!
Hearing Yang Zhuo's words, Li Shimin was very unconvinced and pointed to the opposite flag.

"Look, what's on the other side?"

"The flag is moving." Huineng looked at it and said in a low voice.

"No, no, no! Wrong! It's the wind!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, shaking his head with a smile.

What the hell!Debate!You are arguing!

"You are all wrong!" Yang Zhuo shook his head.

Huineng and Li Shimin looked at Yang Zhuo suspiciously.

Yang Zhuo smiled and said.

"It's not the wind, it's not the flag, it's the benevolent heart!"

Li Shimin: This... is indeed a son-in-law!So fucking philosophical!

After hearing this, Huineng was stunned!

It's not the wind, it's not the flag, it's the heart of the benevolent! !

So profound, so wise!It's so Buddha-like!

"Young Master's roots of wisdom are really deep!"

Huineng said with emotion.

"You're wrong again, my son's wisdom is not deep."

"However, it is longer and thicker."

Huineng: Er, this...

Can Huigen measure length and size? ?

"The young master has a thorough and profound understanding of Buddhism, and the poor monk admires it. Please give me some pointers."

Huineng put his hands together in admiration.

"My son has a predestined relationship with the master, so today I will have something to do with you."

After Yang Zhuo finished speaking, he began to explain his understanding of Buddha.

"All sentient beings have Buddha-nature! Everyone is a future Buddha, self-realization and self-cultivation, and when the window paper is broken, you can suddenly become a Buddha."

"To save the world and save people, you need to cultivate yourself first!"

……

Yang Zhuo told Huineng all about Buddhist theories.

Li Shimin was already dumbfounded!

Looking at Yang Zhuo with admiration, the son-in-law is so handsome when he talks about Buddhism!
Huineng felt that these words were very reasonable, and felt very familiar.

"My son's Buddha nature is profound! Huineng admires him!"

Yang Zhuo smiled and said.

"Don't envy me, your future achievements in Buddhism will be higher than mine!" Yang Zhuo said to Huineng with a smile.

Huineng was puzzled: "I also ask you to give me some advice, what will the poor monk achieve?"

In his opinion, Yang Zhuo is a Living Buddha!What he said must be right!
"How about you, in the future, you will travel far to Dongchan Temple in Huangmei County, find Master Hongren, and worship him as your teacher."

Huineng was a little puzzled, and said.

"Why does the young master want the poor monk to go there? What do you want Master Hongren to do?"

"To tell you the truth, in the future, you will be an excellent inheritor of the mantle of Patriarch Bodhidharma, six generations of ancestors!"

"In the future, you will be able to promote Zen and truly localize Zen."

Yang Zhuo finished speaking.

Huineng was stunned!

He just thought that he liked Buddhism very much, but he didn't expect that he would be able to be the ancestor of the sixth generation and inherit the mantle of Patriarch Bodhidharma!
Can also promote Zen!Make Zen Local!It's incredible!
"Young master, how can a poor monk, He De, inherit the mantle of Patriarch Bodhidharma?"

Huineng thought it was impossible!

"Son-in-law! Don't talk nonsense!" Li Shimin reminded.

He was shocked!
He has heard of Patriarch Bodhidharma before, and the inheritance of this mantle is like the inheritance of jade seals!

And what Yang Zhuo is saying now is a prophecy that the poor monk in front of him will be a candidate to succeed the leader of Buddhism!

Existence like a Buddhist prince!
"I'm serious!"

Yang Zhuo smiled.

Huineng and Li Shimin looked at each other, and then looked at Yang Zhuo in unison.

"You just go to Master Hongren and wait until one day, Master Hongren will gather all his disciples to preach the Dharma. He will ask everyone to write a verse, and decide to choose one of them to inherit the mantle of Patriarch Bodhidharma. Six generations of ancestors."

"When you arrive, Shenxiu, a disciple of Master Hongren, will write a poem in gatha."

"The content of the poem is that the body is a bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror stand. Always wipe it diligently so as not to stir up dust."

After Yang Zhuo finished speaking, Li Shimin was stunned. This son-in-law was predicting the monk's future again!
Huineng was fascinated too!
"This gatha is really well done!" Huineng said with emotion.

Yang Zhuo smiled and said, "Don't envy him! Your gatha is much better than his!"

"Huh??" Huineng couldn't believe it!

"You modified Shenxiu a little bit, but the artistic conception is very good!" Yang Zhuo smiled and said.

Huineng looked at Yang Zhuo in disbelief, and said, "My lord clearly stated, how will the poor monk change?!"

"There is no tree in Bodhi, and the mirror is not a stage. Originally there is nothing, where can it cause dust."

Yang Zhuo chanted leisurely.

After saying this, Li Shimin and Huineng were shocked!

That's right!Very good!
"Amitabha! So good!" Huineng put his hands together with emotion.

Li Shimin knew that Yang Zhuo was powerful, but he didn't expect that Yang Zhuo's understanding of Buddhism was so profound!
God man too!
"Okay, I've finished talking to you, let's go on a long journey by yourself!"

"If there is no boat to spend, I can give it to you here."

Yang Zhuo smiled.

Huineng was enlightened by Yang Zhuo and shook his head.

"Amitabha, when you are lost, the son will cross, and when you become enlightened, you will cross by yourself, and the poor monk will go."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to Yang Zhuo and left.

Yang Zhuo smiled and watched Huineng go away.

Li Shimin looked at Yang Zhuo speechlessly, then at Huineng, what the hell!

I made a foil again!
-

Imperial Palace, Early Dynasty.

Today in the Tang Dynasty, the world is peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Therefore, it is very easy to go to the morning court.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat."

Li Shimin yawned, waiting to retreat.

At this time, Du Ruhui came out.

"Your Majesty! I have something to play!"

Everyone looked at Du Ruhui.

Li Shimin also sat up straight and looked at Du Ruhui.

"Aiqing, what is there to play!"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have just received news that Xue Yantuo Khan and Yi Nan Khan have arrived outside Chang'an City with cattle and sheep as dowry gifts, and they will arrive in Chang'an City in a few days."

When Li Shimin heard this, he lost all sleepiness!

Yi Nan Khan actually came? !
However, he didn't want to marry his daughter off!
"Is this Barbarian Khan really here? Is it possible that he really got enough cattle and sheep for the dowry?"

"Then he is so sincere, I don't know if the emperor will marry the princess."

"It's hard to say! Anyway, Yi Nan Khan is also the leader of the tribe!"

"Let's just listen to what the emperor has to say. No matter what, this barbarian Khan is going to marry the emperor's daughter!"

All the ministers, whispering, waiting for Li Shimin to speak!
Li Shimin is also tangled, damn it, call Goguryeo and forget about Xue Yantuo!
What should I do now?Yi Nan Khan really drove the cattle and sheep to marry the princess!

As a king, Li Shimin once said a word, it is hard to follow!

However, he didn't want to marry his daughter to Yi Nan Khan!
"Retire! Du Aiqing and Fang Aiqing, come to Xuanzheng Hall to discuss matters!"

Li Shimin said.

When the other ministers saw it, it was obvious that the emperor wanted to quietly discuss countermeasures with Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling!

Although jealous, he still flung his sleeves and retreated.

……

Xuanzheng Hall.

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling went to Xuanzheng Hall together, waiting for Li Shimin there.

"You two lovers, what do you think of the fact that Yinan Khan came to propose marriage?"

Li Shimin said.

"Your majesty, didn't the son-in-law have already mentioned this matter before?"

"The minister has already inquired. The cows and sheep that this barbarian Khan drove this time were met with heavy snow along the way, and then there was a drought, and the water and grass supplies were not enough. Now, the cattle and sheep are thin and weak, and most of them are dead!"

"Your Majesty can use the reason that the dowry does not meet the requirements! Refuse the marriage!"

Du Ruhui replied.

"Yes! Your Majesty! This is a valid reason!" Fang Xuanling said.

Li Shimin frowned, and said: "Of course I know that I can refuse him on the grounds of dowry, but I feel that this reason is not sufficient!"

If he refused on the grounds of dowry, would it be said that he got into the eyes of money? !

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling: What the hell, even wanting to set up a torii after being a bitch!
"What the emperor said is true! We really need to find a more sufficient reason!"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui nodded in agreement.

"Then tell me, why don't you find another reason?!"

Li Shimin hurriedly looked at Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling.

"Uh, well, it's hard to say, and easy to say."

"Duke is right!"

Li Shimin hurriedly said: "Tell me!"

"Let us think about it."

"Yes! Think again."

Li Shimin:  …

"Forget it! I'd better go find Yang Zhuo!"

Relying on the two of you is unreliable!

Why not go to Yang Zhuo!Let him come up with a good idea!
