Fu Tang

Hearing the word "Shi", Li Congjia's first reaction was Shaolin Temple, but he didn't have a special understanding of the development of Buddhism. He didn't know what the Dharma names of those big temples and small temples were based on in this era.

Shi Xueting uttered the Buddha's name, lowered his eyes and remained silent, neither saying yes nor no.

Li Congjia didn't continue to ask, the other party's attitude was very vague, but it was also because he didn't deny it that Li Congjia felt that the monk should be from Shaolin.

However, since Shaolin established its status in the early Tang Dynasty, it has been flourishing for a hundred years, and the disciples in the temple could not be reduced to the point where they ran out to do such things.

Li Congjia sat there in silence, wanting to think about Li Jingsui's purpose and analyze Shi Xueting's origin, but he was impetuous.

To be honest, he thinks it's incredible that he can still sit here and calmly ask someone's name instead of rushing over and beating Li Jingsui to death.

If it was changed to his previous temper, even if he burns jade and rock together, he would have to kill that bastard.

He was forced from the beginning to the end of this matter, and he didn't feel any glamorousness. Although the perpetrator was sitting next to him, if you really counted it, this monk might also be a victim.

Li Jingsui succeeded in taking away all the hatred of Li Congjia, but he was the emperor's younger brother, before he was deposed, Li Congjia couldn't do anything wrong if Li Jing liked him again.

MD, this imperial brother must be abolished!

Dare to force the prince like this before he is in power, when he really gets in power, what will the sons of the "first emperor" have to survive?

Speaking of which, Li Congjia has actually followed the trend since he came here, as long as these people don't toss and abolish the Southern Tang Dynasty, and don't let him be the king of subjugation.

Now it seems that this is not enough, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on, he sits in this seat, no matter how indifferent to the world, someone will drag him into the water!

Thinking about these things in his mind, the anger in Li Congjia's heart was slowly suppressed, it didn't disappear, but was suppressed. If he failed to take revenge on the spot, then the matter would never end.

After returning to the palace, Zhou Ehuang greeted him, and his face changed slightly after seeing Li Congjia bring back a monk and a maid.

Li Congjia walked over with a normal face and said, "My lady is not asleep yet?"

Zhou Ehuang said: "The king has not returned yet, how can I sleep? These two people are...?"

Li Congjia said: "This is Birui, a gift from the emperor's younger brother. You should have someone put her down first, and keep her by your side for use."

When Zhou Ehuang heard the word Huang Taidi, his eyebrows and eyes moved slightly, and then when he heard Li Congjia say that she should arrange someone, he instantly understood what Li Congjia meant—there was probably something wrong with this little lady.

Glancing at Li Congjia, he nodded and said to the maid beside him, "Ah Fu, let someone take her down." After speaking, he looked at Shi Xueting behind Li Congjia and asked, "How will this mage arrange this?" ?”

Li Congjia hesitated for a moment, but said: "Master and I hit it off right away at the emperor's younger brother. Master Shi Xueting has studied Buddhism deeply. I will continue to discuss Buddhism with him tonight, so my wife doesn't have to worry about it."

Zhou Ehuang nodded and didn't feel any difference. After saying hello, he led the people away.

Li Congjia is not worried about handing Birui to Zhou Ehuang. Although there are conflicts between them, when it is time to agree with the outside world, they must always be consistent with the outside world. If Zhou Ehuang can't even tell this point, then he will find a way to make Zhou Ehuang honest for the rest of his life just work.

In other words, Birui was a test Li Congjia gave Zhou Ehuang.

Li Congjia turned his head to look at Shi Xueting and said coldly: "I will ask the mage to explain my doubts tonight."

Shi Xueting bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Li Congjia knew that he thanked him because he had saved face for him. If Li Jingsui followed what Li Jingsui did, Shi Xueting's status would not be as good as Bi Rui's.

But from Li Congjia's point of view, Li Jingsui's use of Shi Xueting as his trump card must have his purpose.

After washing, Li Congjia returned to the room and saw Shi Xueting, who had changed into a monk's robe, sitting on a chair with his hands clasped together and his eyes closed. It can make people calm and calm, and forget their worries.

After Li Congjia came in, Shi Xueting opened his eyes, stood up from the chair and saluted.

Li Congjia turned his head to let A Lin back down, A Lin hesitated, he glanced at Shi Xueting, Li Congjia couldn't see it, but he could tell from Shi Xueting's walking that this person might be very skilled How could the king be at ease when he was alone with such a monk of unknown origin?

Li Congjia said with a half-smile: "I know what you are worried about, so you don't have to think so much. If the mage wants to harm me, there are many opportunities before, isn't it? Mage?"

"Amitabha." Shi Xueting said: "The scum of the door and wall should not be called a mage, and there is absolutely no harm to His Highness."

Ah Lin thought to himself, the monk should not lie, right?

Of course, the main thing is that Li Congjia insisted on letting him leave.

After Ah Lin left, Li Congjia sat on the bed and said, "Tell me about your origin."

Shi Xueting said: "His Royal Highness is as clear as a torch, a certain is indeed an abandoned disciple of Shaolin."

Li Congjia became interested: "Abandoned disciples from Shaolin? What kind of rules and regulations have you violated? Could it be... violating the precept of lust?"

There was no embarrassment on Shi Xueting's face, but a touch of helplessness: "No."

After saying these two words, no matter how hard Li Congjia pressed him, he refused to say any more.

Li Congjia had no choice but to pat the edge of the bed and said: "Don't stand, look up to see you struggling, sit down."

Shi Xueting hesitated, but went to the bed and sat down.

Li Congjia looked at him from the side, full of envy, jealousy and hatred in his heart. There really are such 360-degree people with no dead ends in the world. Why did he find himself a fat man as soon as he passed through?Still a dead fat man who will soon be unlucky.

Thinking of his bad luck, Li Congjia couldn't help thinking of Zhao Kuangyin and Guo Rong.

Wait...Guo Rong?Songshan...isn't it located within Zhou Kingdom's territory?

Li Congjia looked at Shi Xueting thoughtfully and asked, "You were expelled from the temple, presumably because Guo Rong broke Buddhism?"

Shi Xueting's always indifferent expression finally showed a bit of bitterness, as if he felt that his Buddha heart was flawed, he closed his eyes and silently recited a Buddhist gatha.

Li Congjia felt very strange. Although Guo Rong was labeled as exterminating Buddhism in history, in fact Guo Rong did not completely ban Buddhism, but managed it more deeply, that is to say, brought Buddhism into the scope of the imperial court's management. , rather than leaving them free.

The monks who did not have a degree will naturally have to return to the vulgarity, and after returning to the vulgarity, they will be registered and recorded according to the treatment of ordinary people in Zhou State. It is impossible to be exiled to the Southern Tang Dynasty and be forced to be a male favorite.

Li Congjia was puzzled, so he simply asked, "Why did you come to Tang? Why did you do this kind of thing? Don't you feel that you are embarrassing the Buddha?"

Shi Xueting lowered his eyebrows and said, "I am no longer a Buddhist disciple, so how can I shame the Buddha? I have come here to ask for a nobleman."

Li Congjia refused to give up: "You are familiar with Buddhism, you should know that there are many people who like Buddhism among the nobles, but you want to use this method. Could it be that you want to imitate the predecessors and give in the flesh?"

Shi Xueting Buddha's heart was firm, he was not angry, he just said: "Everything is inseparable from the four words of chance and coincidence."

Li Congjia suddenly asked, "What did Li Jingsui ask you to do?"

Shi Xueting said calmly: "Just let me serve His Highness."

Just serve?Li Congjia closed his eyes and thought about it, and felt that Li Jingsui's deep-seated purpose might be to make Li Jing hate him. After all, Li Jing also believed in Buddhism. It's fine for Li Congjia to hang out with men, but also with monks. It's too ugly.

It's just that Li Congjia originally thought that Li Jingsui would win him over, but he didn't expect the other party to use such a method.

Li Congjia looked at Shi Xueting and said: "Be honest, you can answer whatever I say."

Shi Xueting suddenly turned his head to look at him, his eyes were clear and spotless: "Your Highness II is a human being, and he should have a great fortune. If the poor monk asks His Highness, he will naturally know everything."

Li Congjia:! ! ! ! ! !
