Kumarajiva's eyes widened now. This Living Buddha, who had always been very determined, could not believe his ears, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, are you serious?"
Yao Xing's face darkened and he said coldly: "Jun Wuxi, Imperial Master, if anyone else dared to talk to me like this, I'm afraid their head would have been moved by now. I remember that you are highly virtuous and a monk."
, I won’t argue with you, but you can’t refuse my proposal.”
Kumarajiva gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty should know that Buddhism has Buddhist precepts. One of the very important precepts is the precept of sexual intercourse. People who become monks must abandon the love between men and women, and there will be no descendants to inherit it."
Otherwise, he has selfish desires and evil thoughts. How can such a person win the trust of his disciples and believers?"
Yao Xing sneered and said: "Kumaroshi, you have already broken the precepts, don't you think it's hypocritical to say this? Even if you were forced by Lu Guang back then, your cousin, as a lay Buddhist, has been
She is by your side, even though she has not given birth to any children for you, she still takes care of your food and daily life. What is the difference between her and your wife? It’s okay for her to break the precept, but can’t she break it again for me? Moreover, this is just for the sake of
It is for your own good that I allow you to carry on the family lineage and not waste the wisdom of a holy monk like you, so that your Buddhist seed can be spread throughout the world!"
Kumarajiva shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, since that time when you succumbed to Lu Guang to save the people in the city, the poor monk and the female lay monk Ayejamodhi have never had anything to do with each other. She is a lay scholar."
She is just serving me as a disciple. From her point of view, her parents were killed and her brother was killed. She has no relatives left. She has no other place to go but to escape into Buddhism. Moreover, she and I had a skin-to-skin relationship, which is known to the whole world.
, if she did not stay in the temple, no one would marry her again, and she would even be bullied by Lu Guang's cruel and lustful subordinates. The poor monk took her in for no other reason than to covet beauty. No matter how beautiful a woman is, in the poor monk
There is nothing more than a red and pink skull in my eyes, please be more careful, Your Majesty."
Yao Xing laughed: "So, Imperial Master, you saved your cousin? Now there are ten stunning beauties waiting for you to save and transform. They are in troubled times, very pitiful, and their families are separated.
Only when their parents are killed, robbed, and bought and sold, will they fall into the world of prostitution. Master, if you are a living Buddha who saves people in distress, you should treat them equally and save their fallen souls. Use your spiritual fluid to cleanse their lawless bodies and make them
They can clean up their lives again. This will be an act of immeasurable merit."
Kumarajiva was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He slammed his Zen staff and said, "Your Majesty, you actually want to use a prostitute to humiliate this poor monk. Even if he dies, he will never accept it!"
Yao Xing's brows furrowed: "Kumaroshi, I hope you will think clearly. In this world, no one can violate my will like this. In the eyes of the people outside, you may be a living Buddha who saves the suffering, but in my case
, with just one order, you can go see the Buddha of the West. Do you understand?"
Kumarajiva gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, everything in this world has a cause and effect. If you do too much evil, some will be retribution after death, and some will be retribution in this life. Isn't the late emperor the best example? You
Over the years, I have practiced benevolence and righteousness, treated the people with generosity, and turned against the behavior of the late emperor. Not only did I accumulate virtues and blessings for myself, but I also washed away the sins of the late emperor, so that he could reduce the pain he suffered down below."
Yao Xing said sternly: "Shut up, you dare to insult the late emperor, I will kill you now!" Several warriors in the pavilion stepped forward, waiting for Yao Xing's order to capture Kumarajiva.
Already.
Kumarajiva laughed and said: "Okay, you can kill him. The poor monk is already over sixty years old and has long ignored life and death. If you can use the death of the poor monk to let the world know your Majesty's face clearly, it will be an act of immeasurable merit. You
You know best what kind of person your father is, can you kill everyone in the world?"
Yao Xing was silent for a while, then waved his hand to signal the warriors to retreat. He looked at Kumarajiva and said, "I know that when we were in Houliang, you were so outspoken that even the cruel Lu family's father knew not to kill him.
Of course you and I know better that no matter how bad the late emperor was, he was still the founding emperor who conquered the country and handed it over to me. You should have the minimum respect for him."
Kumarajiva loudly proclaimed the Buddha's name: "The late Emperor had his shortcomings and his merits. At least in the eyes of the poor monk, he was much better than Lu Guang and his son. The best thing was to let His Majesty ascend the throne instead of
Select other sons who are good at fighting but are cruel and easy to kill. This alone can wash away many sins. The poor monk received the favor of the Qin Dynasty and chanted sutras day and night to eliminate the karma of the late emperor and repay His Majesty's kindness."
Yao Xing gritted his teeth: "Let's not mention this matter. Imperial Master, let me explain it clearly to you. You also know that in Chang'an City, there are more people who listen to you than to me. If
If you cannot bow to me on this matter, then I will not kill you, but I will not let you go. Not only you, but also all the monks in the temple will stop translating scriptures. From now on, all
The monks are not allowed to enter the Sutra Pavilion, and other supplies remain as usual. Since you cannot satisfy me, I will have no choice but to destroy your life career."
Kumarajiva's body began to tremble, which could be seen from the golden rings on the Zen staff he was holding that began to shake and make a sound. He gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, you can't treat me like this. Translating scriptures is the way to save the world.
Your great feat, the stability of your rule here also depends on this, you can't ruin the welfare of the people in the world just because you are fighting with the poor monk!"
Yao Xing said coldly: "With these scriptures of yours, you have not defeated Hu Xia and eliminated Helian Bobo. Since you can't deal with my enemies, what is the use of these scriptures? It is to let my people
Will I kneel down to you every step of the way and kowtow to the ground?"
Kumarajiva sighed: "If Your Majesty is really worried about the poor monk, then the poor monk can stay in the temple and not come out from now on. He only does the work of translating scriptures and does not accept any incense from the common people. That will be all right."
Yao Xing sneered and said: "You are in retreat today. Those believers who have come from thousands of miles are eager to tear down the door. If you really want to stop them completely, you will instigate these people to rebel because of you. After thinking about it, I can only let you break it again."
Jie, give up this reputation, so that the people will no longer regard you as a god and Buddha, and will remember who their emperor is. Master, I have plenty of time, you can also wait slowly, and come again when you have figured it out.
Find me."
As he spoke, he turned around and walked toward the outside of the pavilion. Jia Fu saluted respectfully, and Yao Xing's words came to his ears: "Jia Fu, arrange for the Imperial Master to stay in Xiaoyao Pavilion behind the Imperial Garden. The ten
The beauties will also be sent along. Oh, by the way, don’t read scriptures to the Imperial Master these days. Bad people and good deeds will be punished!"
