Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Guo Ye smiled and said, "Okay, you take someone to guard outside the door. Benhou will go in and meet Monk Xuanzang."

After all, with the help of Wang Bajin, he passed through the crowd and entered the Yizhou Hou's residence.

When I came outside the flower hall, I saw Master Xuanzang and his disciples at a glance. The great monk Baoxiang sat solemnly in the flower hall, sipping tea, and gently blowing the steam from the tea.Guo Ye couldn't help praising, Xuanzang is so good, his style is getting higher and higher, even the posture of drinking tea is so elegant.

As for the disciples behind Xuanzang, Guo Ye has also met them. Among them, the elder brother, the second elder brother, and the third elder brother even entered Xuanzang's disciples thanks to Guo Ye's blessing.As for the four disciples, Bianji, this handsome little monk, who Guo Ye called Little White Dragon, was standing on Xuanzang's left hand, and his face was full of obscenity.

When Zhang Jiujin saw Guo Ye coming at the door, he immediately bowed his hands and said, "I've seen Lord Hou."

Guo Ye waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's hard work, Jiujin. Leave it to me here, and you can go to the door to help Bajin, so that those crazy Buddhist believers will not crash into our house."

"Here!"

Zhang Jiujin left the flower hall in a hurry and ran to the gate outside the mansion.

Guo Ye's arrival naturally alarmed Xuanzang's master and apprentice in the flower hall.

The great monk Xuanzang immediately put down the cup in his hand, stood up and bowed slightly to Guo Ye who came in, clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, I didn't expect this little monk to come to the Marquis' mansion so suddenly, that he would cause trouble to the Marquis of Yizhou."

The three Wukong brothers behind Xuanzang also bowed to Guoye one after another and said, "I have met the Marquis of Yizhou."

Only the grudge in his heart has never responded to Guo Ye's brooding debate, and has been standing on Xuanzang's left.

The virtue of Bian Ji was naturally caught by Guo Ye, and he sneered slightly in his heart and ignored it.

Afterwards, he slightly cupped his hands at Xuanzang, and said with a smile, "Great Monk, what's the matter? I haven't seen you for a while, and you're being so polite to me? Why don't you recognize me as Brother Guo?"

"what?"

Xuanzang exclaimed in a little embarrassment, and immediately changed his words: "Yes, it's the little monk's fault, Brother Guo, don't take offense."

As he said that, Xuanzang waved to Bianji beside him, as well as Wukong, Wuneng, and Wujing behind him, and said, "As a teacher, I want to talk to Brother Guo. You all go to the gate of the Hou's Mansion and watch. Appease the believers, lest they rush into the Hou's mansion because of us."

"Yes, Master!"

"The apprentice knows."

"Follow your teacher's orders!"

After the three of Wukong responded to Xuanzang one after another, they walked out of the flower hall and went straight to the gate of the Hou's mansion.

Only Bianji didn't move, and still stood beside Xuanzang like a shadow.

Seeing this, Guo Ye couldn't help frowning, and slightly reprimanded: "You three senior brothers have all gone to the door, why are you staying here?"

Bian Ji curled his lips, and proudly said: "The three of them don't have the roots of wisdom, and they are not enough to stay with the master to listen to the Buddha's voice.

"You have a dick Huigen, get off!"

Guo Ye sternly interrupted Bianji's boast, and scolded: "Did you slander your senior brother like that? Didn't you hear what your master said? There is no respect, no distinction between superiors and superiors. If I were your master, I would have already You have been expelled from the sect. Hurry up and disappear before my eyes, this Marquis doesn’t want to take another look at you.”

shuh~

Bian Ji was so humiliated that his face turned red, and he shouted angrily: "Nonsense, you are spewing blood..."

"Bianji, shut up!"

Xuanzang, who was always good-natured and good-natured, also suddenly shouted at the debate machine: "As a teacher, you regard the Marquis of Yizhou as your elder brother, so you have to treat him like a disciple. Being arrogant and domineering is really out of order. What are you still doing here in a daze? Go down and go to the gate of the Marquis Mansion. If the teacher hears that you wantonly slander the brothers of the same school, he will definitely be punished."

Even Xuanzang had spoken, Bianji naturally didn't dare to make mistakes, cursed Guo Ye viciously in his heart, and fled out of the flower hall in desperation.

As soon as the debate was gone, Xuanzang apologized to Guo Ye: "Brother Guo, the villain has been spoiled by the little monk, and he is too arrogant because of pampering, please don't take it to heart, the little monk will turn around and seduce him. Corrected."

Guo Ye shrugged his shoulders and shook his head. He didn't comment on Bian Ji. He secretly sneered in his heart, Bian Ji is not just proud of being favored?If it can be corrected after some good guidance, then there will not be so many heinous people in the prison of the Ministry of punishment.

In Guo Ye's view, there is no cure for this person who is old at the age of three!

However, from Xuanzang's words, Guo Ye knew that the great monk loved this apprentice very much, so he didn't bother to persuade him any more, because there was no need to affect his friendship with Xuanzang just for an argument.

Immediately, he changed the subject and asked Xuanzang, "By the way, you came to my house to look for me today, but what's the matter?"

Xuanzang hummed, walked out of Bianji's matter slowly, and said, "I'm here to bid farewell to brother Guo when I come to the house today."

farewell?

Guo Ye was stunned for a moment, and Xuanzang explained leisurely: "It's been a long time since I came back from the Western Paradise to obtain scriptures. These days, I have never left the Daci'en Temple in Chang'an. The little monk once lived in Tianzhu I made an oath, and I also made a great wish on the way back from learning scriptures in the Western Paradise, to promote the Buddha and the Dharma in the Tang Dynasty, and to save the world. Therefore, it is not what I want to stay in Chang'an. Therefore, I choose to leave Chang'an temporarily."

Speaking of this, Xuanzang smiled shyly, and said: "After returning from the West, the young monk became famous in Chang'an, and also gained a little reputation in Buddhism in the Central Plains. This time, he also received abbots from monasteries in various provinces and prefectures in the south. Abbot's invitation, they also hope that the young monk can go south."

"Oh……"

Guo Ye almost understood what Xuanzang meant. Now that his position in the Central Plains Buddhism has been somewhat stable, he is about to start a concert tour across the country, oh no, it should be a lecture tour to promote Buddhism.In this way, he completely established his position in the Buddhist sect of the Tang Dynasty.

At this point, Guo Ye slightly agreed in his heart, this is a good thing and should be supported!

Immediately, Guo Ye nodded and said, "Xuanzang, brothers must support you. By the way, when will you leave Chang'an?"

Xuanzang said: "The time is relatively short, and we will set off early tomorrow morning."

Guo Ye was slightly surprised that he was in such a hurry.

Then, he asked again: "Next stop, where are you going to go first?"

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and made a sound of the Buddha's name, then saluted, and said slowly, "Yong...zhou..."

"What? Yongzhou???"

Chapter 891

The first stop of Xuanzang's national speech tour is Yongzhou?

Guo Ye's face was full of astonishment, and he wondered in his heart, could it be that Xuanzang's first trip to Yongzhou was also related to the disturbance of Yongzhou believers and the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism?

Or is it just a coincidence?

Guo Ye didn't have time to ask, Xuanzang said, "Brother Guo, it's getting late, and I have to take my disciples back to the Daci'en Temple to clean up and tidy up. I will leave early tomorrow morning. I will return to Chang'an later. At that time, the first thing the little monk would do was to visit Guo's mansion first and renew the old friendship with my brother."

After finishing speaking, Xuanzang clasped his hands together again at Guoye, bowed slightly and proclaimed a Buddha's name, then turned around and walked out of the flower hall, drifting towards the gate of the Marquis Mansion, his figure was dusty yet elegant.

Xuanzang's departure faintly affected Guo Ye's reluctance to give up. The acquaintance is not only a fate, let alone acquaintance and mutual acquaintance, mutual confidantes?

Although parting is sad, he has not yet reached the point where he can't sleep or eat at night, because he also knows that parting is not goodbye forever, and this parting is just the beginning of the next meeting.

Just think about it, life has to go on.

Because his wife Chai Xiuxiu took her adoptive father Wu Maocai to Huo Guogong's mansion and has not returned home yet, so he still eats dinner alone as usual.

After hastily eating dinner, the sky was already dark, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and there was nothing left or right, so he could only return to the bedroom alone to prepare for bed.
