There is a temple on Feishe Mountain, which is dedicated to the living Buddha Jigong. Among them is a living Buddha who claims to be the reincarnation of Jigong and can predict many things.
Originally the emperor did not believe this, but the living Buddha had predicted that he would be the new king and told him that he must end it, otherwise he would suffer the consequences.
He also predicted that the first eldest prince would become a famous king, so the first eldest prince had no hesitation in forcing the old emperor to step down, and he became the new king.
He didn't tell anyone about this. He found out about it when he was traveling. He didn't even tell Princess Lanling.
But she vaguely knew something because she was smart, but she didn't say anything else.
Now she actually found the Living Buddha?
I don’t know what the Living Buddha said. Thinking of the Living Buddha who seemed to be always so young and not limited by time, the emperor felt a sense of trance.
He still remembered that when he was traveling, he was only a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old. At that time, the living Buddha was wearing a white cassock. Although he had no hair, he had thick eyebrows and dark eyes, as bright and deep as paint.
At that time, he looked like he was in his mid-twenties, mature and steady, but also as pure as a young man.
But when he saw him again later, he had grown up, but the Living Buddha still looked the same.
Now that so many years have passed, he is thinking, will that living Buddha always remain that pure and beautiful look, never grow old, seem to have escaped the limitations of time, and the carving knife of time will never be able to carve his youth?
He once predicted many things, each of which was a major event.
And he never predicts small things, and he never does it for utilitarian purposes, he just predicts.
If he has any request, it is that if the person involved asks him to make a prediction, he will make a request.
That request has never been utilitarian, but for the peace of the world.
For example, when he went to seek fortune telling from the Living Buddha, the Living Buddha directly said that he would make great achievements and become a wise king.
The only requirement is that he treat the people of the world well. Only in this way can long-term peace and stability be achieved. If he does not want to be a wise king, then his world will not last long.
He also wanted to know how many generations he could pass on if he succeeded, but the Living Buddha said no more.
The Living Buddha means that he can die a good death, but no one can predict what will happen next, so it has nothing to do with him.
Because of this, the emperor felt that Xiao Che was probably not a suitable candidate, and Xiao Run was even less suitable. However, he also wanted to ensure that he would still be the Supreme Emperor in a hundred years and could enter the ancestral temple and enjoy direct enshrinement.
So he needs to find this knot, that is, what the living Buddha said about the next generation of kings that has nothing to do with him.
He believed in that living Buddha, so he knew it as soon as Princess Lanling told him, and he felt a little weak in his heart.
Princess Lanling glanced at him and knew that the emperor must have known about it. She had more or less known about the fact that he came back to force the palace because of a prophecy made by the Living Buddha.
Although he forced the emperor to go to the palace, his father, who was already terminally ill, still insisted on making Xiao Wen, the son of Concubine Lian, the emperor.
Concubine Lian is just a concubine, and the eldest brother is the eldest son of his mother. If he is not allowed to be the emperor, then who will?
