Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

After traveling for a while, the carriage finally arrived outside the mountain gate of Da Ci'en Temple.

But Guo Ye was dumbfounded as soon as he got out of the carriage. There were crowds of people everywhere outside the mountain gate. They were already surrounded by pious pilgrims who came to listen to the Dharma lecture. There were thousands of people at least.

And the mountain gate of Da Ci'en Temple was also blocked, and now it is very difficult to enter the temple.

As Liu Zhenxuan said just now, the ceremonial guards and retinues of Prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Litai, and several princesses were indeed nearby, and they were also blocked from the mountain gate.

However, there was no real master in the sedan chair, and it was obvious that he had already entered the Da Ci'en Temple through some privileged channels.

Suddenly, Guo Ye was patted lightly on the back, and a surprised voice came out: "Huh? Uncle, why are you here too?"

Guo Ye turned his head to look for someone, and found that the person who greeted him was not someone else, but Li Chunfeng, a disciple of his cheap senior brother Yuan Tiangang in Panlongguan.

This guy is dressed decently today, he is wearing a brand-new purple-gold gossip gown, his hair is shiny and shiny, and his whisk is also newly made, and the handle of the whisk is also inlaid with watery red and blue agate stones.

Tsk tsk, he looks like a big local tyrant.

Guo Ye was also very surprised that Li Chunfeng appeared outside the Buddhist temple, and asked: "Hey, did you catch some big money with your master recently, and fooled a lot of money? You are dressed so flamboyantly!"

Li Chunfeng pursed his lips, and spat: "Uncle, your mouth is really poisonous. What do you mean by being fooled? We are taking money from others to solve their disasters. The money is all reasonable and legal income."

Guo Ye smiled and said, "Just kidding, by the way, you are a Taoist disciple, what are you doing here in this pure place of Buddhism?"

Li Chunfeng said in a low voice: "Uncle, you should know that Buddhism and Taoism have been suppressing signs since ancient times, and no one will accept the other. I am here to spy on the enemy's situation. There is a saying in the art of war. Know yourself and the enemy and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles."

Guo Ye secretly scolded, idiot, dressed so eye-catchingly and flirtatiously, and even spied on a ghost's enemy, he is really a guy with worrying IQ.

But he still asked curiously: "Do you know what's going on in Da Ci'en Temple today? The incense is so prosperous, not only so many devout believers come to listen to the Dharma lectures, but also so many royal heirs and officials' children. I I heard that a virtuous and eminent monk came, do you know who this eminent monk is from? He has such a great appeal."

Li Chunfeng immediately showed dissatisfaction when he heard the words. Of course, in Guo Ye's eyes, he was more envious and jealous.

He said sourly: "What a great virtuous monk, who is about the same age as me, what's so special about it, isn't it just that foreign monks like to chant scriptures?"

"Oh?" Guo Ye's eyes lit up, and he asked, "So you know what this eminent monk's name is? Tell me, what is it about?"

"It seems that you are not very old, what is your name, oh yes, this monk's Dharma name..."

When Li Chunfeng read out the name of the eminent monk, Guo Ye froze on the spot, as if struck by thunder, and muttered to himself:

"No way? Ju, it's actually him..."

Chapter 736

As soon as Li Chunfeng uttered the name of the eminent monk of Da Ci'en Temple, Guo Ye stood stiffly on the spot and muttered in a low voice, "It could be him..."

In fact, he was too excited and said the wrong thing, to be precise, he came back...

Xuanzang!

Tang Xuanzang! !

Tang Xuanzang, who went to the Western Tianzhu Kingdom to learn Buddhist scriptures, unexpectedly came back.

Guo Ye looked at the hot scene outside the Da Ci'en Temple, and the posture of thousands of devout believers prostrating and worshiping. There is no doubt that Tang Xuanzang had successfully returned from his journey to the West.

Good guy, Tang Xuanzang went to the Buddhist country Tianzhu, and he gilded his monk career, and he became a virtuous monk as soon as he returned to Chang'an.

No wonder Li Chunfeng felt sad when he saw Tang Xuanzang, who was about his age, so beautiful.

However, he still has some regrets, regretting not being able to enter the Da Ci'en Temple to witness Tang Xuanzang's demeanor as an eminent monk.

Liu Zhenxuan next to him looked at Guo Ye's interested expression, and couldn't help but dejectedly said: "Master Hou, with the posture outside the mountain gate, you can't squeeze in. You can't see anything outside, why don't we go back."

Guo Ye sighed, nodded and said: "Well, go back, go back, the future will be long, and I will still see you if you want to see in the future."

On the other hand, Li Chunfeng, who came to spy on the situation of his competitors, was a little depressed. He stamped his feet very depressed, and sighed: "It's a pity, if I come earlier, I can get a seat inside, so I can find out. Hmph, I Let's see how this foreign monk spreads the Dharma, and how lively this Buddhist event is. Could it be even more grand than our Taoist Sanqing's birthday?"

These words are full of envy, jealousy and hatred inside and out, that is sour!

Guo Ye got goosebumps all over his body when he heard it, and he rolled his eyes again and again and scolded: "Okay, okay, look at your small belly, chest, chest? You will be a big man with unlimited future, don't look at the door. The widow looks dissatisfied, let's go, let's go back!"

Although Guo Ye scolded and reprimanded him, it was extremely useful to Li Chunfeng's ears, and he said with a sneer: "Hey, what the uncle taught me is that he has his Buddha destiny, and I also have my Dao destiny. In the future, it may not be true." It’s worse than him. Let’s go, let’s go back.”

Guo Ye groaned and was about to leave when suddenly——

"Isn't this the Marquis of Yizhou? Why are you here? Hehe... So you also came to listen to Master Xuanzang preaching the Dharma and explaining the Dharma of Tianzhu?"

There was a soft and joyful voice from behind, Guo Ye followed the voice and turned his head to look, and saw nearly a hundred soldiers opening the way, surrounded by dozens of court ladies and eunuchs, and a four-man-carried rifle approached slowly.

The eight people are riding for the emperor, and the four are for the empress, noble concubine and princess.

If you look closely, it is none other than Bu Huo, but Princess Wencheng.

Guo Ye secretly surprised, it turns out that Princess Wencheng is also a fan of the great monk Tang Seng.

Princess Wencheng is dressed brightly today, changing from the elegant temperament of the past, and becoming a little more charming.

When she stepped forward, Guo Ye led Liu Zhenxuan and Li Chunfeng to bow down and ask Jin An.

Princess Wencheng signaled them to be excused, and then glanced at the crowds of people outside the mountain gate of Daci'en Temple, and she understood immediately, and said: "I am going in to listen to the master preaching the scriptures. It is better to meet you by chance, Yizhou Houruo If you don’t dislike it, go in with me.”

As she said that, she waved at a soldier and lieutenant behind her, signaling him to lead someone to separate a road so that the gate of the mountain could be opened wide.

After listening to Princess Wencheng's invitation, Guo Ye couldn't help but be convinced. This smart woman can talk, and originally wanted to give him a ride in her, but he was afraid of losing face, so he simply changed his tone and said the words from the other party. If he said it out of his mouth, it turned out that the other party had kindly invited him, and if he refused, it would be a bit unreasonable.

Smart women who can talk are really liked by people, especially beautiful smart women are even more rare.

Since Princess Wencheng gave him face so much, he couldn't help it, right?

Immediately, he cupped his hands again to express his gratitude: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders. Today, Guo Mou got the advantage of Her Highness the Princess once."

As soon as these words came out, he suddenly felt regretful, and once again spoke indiscriminately.

Sure enough, upon hearing the words "take advantage", Princess Wencheng's indifferent face could not help but blush.

Soon, the army soldier and school lieutenant came to report that the road was clear and he could enter the temple.

An eunuch behind Princess Wencheng shouted loudly: "Princess Wencheng is coming to Da Ci'en Temple, please stay away from the idlers."

As mentioned earlier, temples do not prohibit women from entering. On the contrary, temples have no express prohibition on women, and they welcome them wildly.

Because pious female believers are the most generous, and if they don't, they will have a lot of sesame oil money when they are born.

Only two kinds of women are prohibited from entering the temple, one is pregnant and the other is popular women, commonly known as aunts.

The crowd of believers was abruptly separated by soldiers. Princess Wencheng only brought a few eunuchs in, not many other palace people.And Guo Ye followed Liu Zhenxuan and Li Chunfeng into the mountain gate.

Seeing that Her Highness the Princess brought three men who did not look like eunuchs into the temple, they couldn't help pointing and guessing what Princess Wencheng wanted to do with Guo Ye and the three of them.
