fake prince

Chapter 209
It was only then that Xiang Xiuping figured out that he knew Su Ziji, but Su Ziji might not know himself, so he said to the young man in the middle, "Brother Zhang, I'm in a hurry, so I won't play chess with you today, let's make an appointment another day." ?”

The young man didn't seem to notice that the atmosphere between Xiang Xiuping and the young man was not right, he nodded and smiled: "Okay, let's make an appointment another day."

After Xiang Xiuping went out, he looked at Su Ziji: "Are you a new student from Taixue?"

Su Ziji's eyes turned: "It seems that there are many foreign students living in this lay house. It is not surprising that Xiang Xiuping will appear here. He may have lived here before."

"No." Su Ziji didn't explain in detail, but just took out the note written by Master Zhou and handed it over: "Master Zhou introduced me to live here."

"Bringing the female relatives?" The young man glanced at it, and he recognized the handwriting on it, which was indeed written by Mr. Zhou of Taixue, and nodded: "It happens that there is a courtyard that has just been vacated, and you don't even need to tidy it up. You can move in directly. This is the key. , go straight along the entrance road, and you can see the house number, which is the sixth courtyard in a row of Mei Zi."

"Come on, you can register here." The young man took out another booklet and asked Su Ziji to register.

It’s just a simple name, place of origin, and referrer content. After Su Ziji finished writing, the young man took it back and looked at it, and couldn’t help but admire: “Good words!”

"There are often Tai students here. Since you are recommended by Mr. Zhou, you must be a fellow. If you have nothing to do, you can come here for a while."

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My surname is Zhang Mingfei. There are actually a few people working here who are just like me. They came from other places to participate in the examination but failed. If you want, you can come and meet with me at that time. We read books and talked about poetry together."

Seeing that he was very enthusiastic, Su Ziji accepted with a smile, and bid farewell to Cao Yiyan.

I went to the small courtyard of No. [-] Meizi, opened the door and walked around inside and out. Just as Zhang Fei said, I can live here directly. I even have some firewood and rice left over. I will make a meal or two.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Ziji left the garden, took a bullock cart back to Taixue, and picked up Ye Buhui and the little fox.

Ye Buhui, who had expected to move a long time ago, was not surprised at all. The little fox seemed to be reluctant to give up the place of Taixue, and couldn't help turning around and chirping several times.

"Why, reluctant?" Su Ziji looked at it with a smile in his eyes.

The little fox was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned his head, and gathered himself up to prevent Su Ziji from seeing it.

"Don't scare it!" Ye Buhui couldn't help laughing, and glared at Su Ziji again.

"I'm just asking casually." Su Ziji rubbed his nose and smiled wryly, but he vaguely guessed in his heart that this place of great learning might also be good for the little fox.

When they finally arrived at Qingyuan Temple's layman's garden, the ox cart could go straight in, so Su Ziji didn't let the cart stop, and let the cart go directly to the gate of Meizi No. [-] Sheyuan.

When he got out of the car, he found that the little fox was shaking again. Su Ziji looked around thoughtfully.

"Is there any master here?"

Just as he was thinking, he saw Cao Yiyan coming out again.

"..." Su Ziji looked at Cao Yiyan, then at the little fox.

At this moment, on the road leading to the gate, the sound of ox carts and bells could be heard from afar, Cao Yiyan's expression changed slightly, and he took a few steps forward.

In a blink of an eye, the cart arrived. It was a large cart pulled by four oxen. The oxen had copper masks on their faces, Zhai feathers on their heads, ribbons and bells on their chests. Chi Decoration, when it moves, there will be a clear and pleasant bell.

"It's a Yandi chariot, it's just changed from two horses to four oxen."

The identity of the woman in the car is not trivial.

With just a glance at the ox cart, Su Ziji already knew it in his heart, and he also had some guesses about why Cao Yiyan appeared here.

"Huh!" Cao Yiyan snorted at this moment, and looked towards the path leading to Qingyuan Temple.

Su Ziji also looked over, and a monk of about the same age, seventeen or eighteen years old, walked slowly.

Rao Su Ziji had seen some outstanding people before, and when he saw the monk's appearance, he couldn't help being startled.

She was dressed in an ordinary Vatican robe with no decorations, not even hair, but this man was handsome and heroic, with extraordinary appearance, especially his eyes, which were clear and tolerant, and his walking posture was upright and calm, not like people in the world.

The bullock cart also stopped at this time, and two maids jumped down, followed by a woman under 40 years old, and finally the girl who was supported down.

"Poor Monk Bianxuan, I have met Your Highness the Princess." Facing the girl who was looking over with a smile, the monk was not frivolous at all, and saluted very solemnly.

"Oh, didn't I say that you are allowed to call me Xinping?" The girl covered her lips and smiled, her eyes fell directly on the monk, looking at the two outstanding young people here from a distance, she simply glanced at them.

Naturally, Su Ziji didn't care, and was still surprised. It turned out that the girl was a princess, but Cao Yiyan couldn't stand it. He walked over and saluted Princess Xinping: "The student has seen Princess Xinping."

"Young Master Cao, are you here to debate the scriptures too?" Princess Xian still knew Cao Yiyan, and nodded slightly.

Su Ziji stood in the distance, and heard that the Bianxuan monk was not far away, so he took a walk in the garden. Because the princess asked a question, he explained the Buddhist scriptures, shook his head, and cleaned up the yard by himself. The environment here is really good. In particular, a bodhi tree is five feet high and more than one foot thick. Unfortunately, it is winter now. Otherwise, the crown of the tree is wide, which really gives people a sense of coolness.

After stacking a few small pieces, I wanted to leave. In my ears, I could hear that Monk Bianxuan was very eloquent, and he also had a deep study of the Buddhist scriptures. He had something unique, and the princess nodded again and again.

In the end, Cao Yiyan didn't seem to be angry, and interjected to argue with Bianxuan. Su Ziji couldn't help but shook his head after hearing a few words.

"Any debate must have an objective and neutral entity to refer to. The most taboo is to debate within other people's systems."

"For example, monks argue with Confucianism and scholars with Sanskrit. Both of them fail. In my history, Daoist and Sanskrit debates always failed. It's not because I don't have eloquence. , can’t insist on the principle of Qi, but instead use the principle of Brahman to argue with it.”

"This is called a theoretical trap. Taking advantage of one's own weaknesses to compete with others' strengths, is it possible that Cao Yiyan has lost his head?"

"Arguing with monks in the Brahma Dhamma is simply asking for humiliation."

Sure enough, a few words made a judgment, Cao Yiyan's complexion, which even Su Ziji from a distance could see, suddenly became unsightly.

Su Ziji, who was not very interested in the Buddhist scriptures or the princess, turned around and left, but within a few steps, he heard footsteps behind him.

"Brother Cao?" Seeing Cao Yiyan come out angrily, Su Ziji pretended to be puzzled and asked.

Cao Yiyan flicked his sleeves, so angry that his handsome face turned violent, but he held back in an instant, and sighed with Su Ziji: "It's not this monk. During the Great Wei Dynasty, even though the Sanskrit religion was introduced, But it must not be expanded, and now the monks of Qingyuan Temple make friends with dignitaries and spread quickly, I am afraid it is not the blessing of Dazheng!"

After speaking, he walked away quickly.

Su Ziji watched the other party's back and smiled secretly: "It turns out that Cao Yiyan actually likes Princess Xinping."

It is nothing more than dissatisfaction with being favored by Princess Xinping when monks make friends with dignitaries.
