Xiao'e and her two little sisters passed by the bedroom door. When they heard the shy voices inside, they couldn't help but open the window and look.
"Xiao'e, what are you doing, Your Majesty?"
Xiao'e said enviously: "It's too much. Your Majesty gave them another chance."
The little sister behind said: "That can't be helped. They are generals and we are maids."
When Su Yourong saw Xiao'e peeling off the window, she stepped forward and scolded her: "What's wrong with you? You're not allowed to peel off the window."
Xiao'e and her little sisters ran away in a hurry.
After they left, Su Yourong also opened the window to watch the excitement.
Long Chen was making trouble in the room for a long time. After Wu Xiangyun was made powerless, he was replaced by Dugu Jiali, and finally Wu Chuchu.
Long Chen got up from the bed, everyone was weak and weak.
....
Xixia, Zhenguo Temple.
Monk Deshan took two disciples to inspect the rebuilt temple.
"Winter is coming, and the walls on the north and west must be thickened to keep out the cold."
Deshan knocked on the earthen wall and felt it was a bit too thin.
The disciple said: "Abbott, there are too few believers, and the work is done in a hurry. We can only wait for the winter first."
In addition to the monks from Zhenguo Temple, there were also many nearby believers who rebuilt these temples and houses.
These believers are all free coolies of Zhenguo Temple.
In the past, everyone believed in taking refuge in Buddhism, but now many people have switched to true Buddhist temples and believed in Guanyin Bodhisattva, and no longer come here to do corvee labor.
Another disciple scolded: "That traitor Mojie should go to the eighteen levels of hell, and those who believe in the True Buddha Temple should also go to hell."
"Abbott, my disciple has a suggestion: capture all the pagans who do not believe in Buddhism and build Buddhist temples."
Deshan frowned and said, "Don't think so. Our Zhenguo Temple is close to the Jade Buddha Pass. Doing so will easily force the rebels to defect to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
"We are here not only to fight against Wu Jian's Long Family Army, but also to compete with them to win the hearts and minds of the people."
The disciple was scolded and quickly bowed his head and clasped his hands to admit his mistake.
Monk Deshan is smarter than these monks and knows that Zhenguo Temple must not only defend the territory here, but also protect the hearts and minds of the people.
Because Zhenfo Temple preaches the equality of all living beings, the precepts of becoming a Buddha and not killing living beings, Zhenguo Temple also began to preach more moderate ideas to the people, and the worshipers' offerings were also actively reduced.
But as a result, Zhenguo Temple's funds are very tight.
Deshan continued walking forward and saw a very solid courtyard and asked, "Why is this courtyard so solid?"
The disciple replied: "Abbott, this courtyard was built by that thief."
The thief the disciples call is naturally Long Chen.
Deshan said coldly: "When Long Chengen occupied Zhenguo Temple, he probably wanted to hold on."
The disciple said: "The houses built by the thieves are very solid. They must have thought of using them as fortresses."
Another disciple cursed: "He should have been allowed to finish all the construction before leaving. He was the one who burned down this Buddhist temple."
The disciple said: "If Tianxia Hui hadn't intervened in the first place, this guy would definitely have refused to leave."
Just as he was talking, a wealthy monk ran over. This man was the new superintendent of Zhenguo Temple, Monk Juekong.
"Abbott, there is a secret message from the capital."
Monk Juekong received a secret letter in his hand, and the two disciples immediately retreated.
Deshan took it and opened it. After looking at it carefully, he frowned and said, "No one in the world will suppress me. Long Chengen is so unscrupulous."
Juekong asked: "What happened to Long Chengen?"
Deshan sneered and said: "This guy openly threatened in the court to destroy Xixia, pacify Nanliang, and let Dongzhou rule the world."
Juekong was stunned for a long time, and then he cursed loudly: "The toad yawned so loudly! Why does Long Chengen rule the world?"
"I have hundreds of thousands of iron kites in Daxia, and hundreds of thousands of monks and soldiers in Zhenguo Temple. They will be destroyed if he says they will be destroyed?"
Monk Deshan put away the secret letter and said: "This guy talks a lot, but he does it every time. Don't underestimate the enemy."
Anyone who can only brag is a fool.
If you can achieve something after bragging about your awesomeness, that is really awesome.
Long Chen is the latter.
Deshan said: "Inform Brother Kongji of this matter quickly. The defense fortifications of Zhenguo Temple will be stepped up. Keep an eye on the Jade Buddha Pass. If there is any abnormality, report it to me!"
Juekong bowed and said: "I obey the decree!"
....
The capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the study room of Prince Wu's Mansion.
Zhang Qian and the other five sat down around Long Chen. There was a camel hair blanket on the floor, which was very comfortable.
Long Chen took out a mental method secret book and said: "This is a mental method secret book written by myself. It combines the martial arts of the Long Family Army and the Cangwu Pavilion. It is very helpful in breaking through the cultivation level."
"It's better than the one I gave you before. Take a look at it and meditate here while I watch."
Long Chen had also written a book before, but at that time it only included the Great Method of Cultivating Yin and the Art of Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix.
This time it incorporates the Long family's mental methods, and the content is completely different.
The secret book was given to Zhang Qian, and Dugu Jiali, Bai Tingting, Wu Chuchu, and Wu Xiangyun came over to read it together.
With the look of five people gathered together, and the camel hair blanket spread on the ground, Long Chen felt like he could have some time...
"Husband, your mentality is a little different."
Zhang Qian has the best cultivation and is the first to see the problem.
Long Chen said: "Yes, I was injured during the Battle of Bailang Mountain, and I can't remember many things."
"When I was dreaming a few days ago, I accidentally recalled Long Ye's mental method, and I merged into it."
"This secret book contains the Long family's mental methods, as well as the Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix Technique given to me by the Holy One. It will definitely be of great benefit to you if you practice it."
Long Chen still revealed the Long family's inner thoughts, because the empress would definitely find out.
Instead of being discovered and exposed later, it is better to give an explanation first.
Bai Tingting took it very seriously. She wanted to follow Long Chen into the enemy formation, but her cultivation level could not be improved.
Bai Tingting felt very upset when she learned that Long Chen went to Jinling.
She felt that Long Chen didn't take her with him because his cultivation level was too low and he was holding him back.
After reading the secret book, several people silently memorized it and sat down next to Long Chen to practice cross-legged.
Long Chen also slowly calmed down and concentrated on meditating.
Outside the door, Xiang Ning turned around furtively, waved to Xiao'e next to her, and they quietly left the study.
"Did it start again?"
Xiao Daiyu asked enviously.
Xiang Ning shook her head and said, "No, it's really strange. Your Majesty is actually practicing seriously today."
Xiao'e didn't believe it and asked, "Isn't it possible? Your Majesty actually practices martial arts with them seriously?"
A big-breasted maid next to her giggled and asked, "Is it a combination of yin and yang? It's so exciting."
Xiang Ning said disdainfully: "What a mess, it's just serious practice. If you don't believe me, see for yourselves."
Xiao'e rubbed her ears and said strangely: "Surrounded by five beauties, the king can still practice quietly. It's really amazing."
Xiang Ning said: "Didn't you hear what was said outside? The king is going to destroy Xixia. Sister Qian and the others must improve their cultivation."
The girls nodded and said, "That makes sense. Should we practice together?"
Xiang Ning said disdainfully: "You need qualifications to practice martial arts. You can just sleep with the king."
Xiao'e giggled and said, "Xiang Ning, you can't just accompany me if you want to."
