"Didn't you see that I stole Kongji Tulu's precious disciple?"
Long Chen's trick succeeded and he felt very happy.
Wu Jian said: "I saw the Major General in the quarantine a few days ago. At that time, I was wondering why the Major General left the quarantine alone. It turned out to be for this reason."
"However, this is too risky, Major General. That Deshan monk is not a simple person. He is a junior fellow of Kongji. He has a very high level of cultivation and is good at fighting. The Buddhist soldiers in the temple are all elite."
Zhenguo Temple and Jade Buddha Pass are very close. They are the fortresses of Xixia in the east, used to deal with Jade Buddha Pass.
There are many monks and soldiers in the temple, and Monk Deshan is both the abbot and the commander-in-chief.
"I know, so I sneaked in quietly. Fortunately, everything went well."
"Xixia suffered a big loss this time and will definitely take revenge. Be careful here."
"According to my estimation, they will not raise troops to invade. They may cause trouble among the people. Be careful of those Buddhist believers being incited."
If Xixia sends troops to attack Jade Buddha Pass, it will be a formal war between the two countries, and this should not happen.
Xixia is most likely to incite Buddhist believers to cause trouble.
"Should I pay attention, Major General, stay here for a few days, or leave immediately?"
"I will return to the capital immediately and will not stay here."
"Okay, I'll arrange the carriage."
Wu Jian immediately arranged for Long Chen to go back to his room and write a letter, asking the Xichang spies to send it back to the capital immediately.
When they arrived at the guest room, Chai Yuguan was walking around the room.
"Shopkeeper Chai."
"Sir...you are..."
Long Chen didn't disguise himself this time and saw his true face. Chai Yuguan was surprised.
"Master Chai, please take a seat."
Long Chen sat down with a smile and poured a cup of tea for Chai Yuguan himself.
"You should have guessed that I am Long Chengen. Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Chai."
Chai Yuguan did not expect that the young man in front of him was the world-famous Long Chengen.
"You are so young that you cannot see Mount Tai. General Long, please forgive me."
Chai Yuguan immediately stood up and bowed to apologize.
Long Chen smiled and said: "You're welcome, Shopkeeper Chai, please take a seat."
After sitting down, Long Chen said: "I have made arrangements just now. You will go back to the capital with Lao Xu. My son will live in Long Shuai's mansion. You can just come to my house."
"The business at Zhaoti Temple can't be done anymore. Just send the sandalwood to my house next year. The price will be the same."
The two things Chai Yuguan cares about most are his son and his business.
Long Chen would not let Chai Yu and Guan Bai help.
"Thank you, General Long, thank you very much!"
Chai Yuguan had long heard that Long Chen was very good except for his lechery, and it turned out to be true when he saw him today.
"Okay, I won't keep shopkeeper Chai here. You and Lao Xu can go back to the capital."
Lao Xu is Zhe Er from Xichang, and he uses a pseudonym.
Chai Yuguan was overjoyed, returned to Xifeng City and settled the bill with Xinglong Escort Bureau, and immediately drove the carriage back to the capital with Zhe'er.
The next day, Wu Jian arranged for the Xiaoqi camp to escort him. Long Chen and Mojie sat in the carriage, discussing Buddhism as they walked, all the way to the capital.
....
Xixia, royal palace.
Monk Deshan entered the side hall, and Shi Le was sitting on the wooden couch. Next to him stood Monk Kong Ji, with an ugly face.
"The poor monk pays homage to the king."
Monk Deshan bowed deeply.
Shi Le nodded slightly and said, "Didn't you catch up?"
Monk Deshan shook his head and sighed: "When the poor monk caught up, Long Chengen had already arrived at Jade Buddha Pass. The guard Wu Jian sent troops to respond, so the poor monk had to retreat."
Shi Le said sadly: "I have long advised the Imperial Preceptor to kill Mojie to avoid future troubles. The Imperial Preceptor always thought of the feelings between master and disciple and refused to do anything. Now Mojie has surrendered to the enemy!"
Monk Kongji closed his eyes and sighed: "The poor monk raised him single-handedly. Although he fell into evil ways, he couldn't bear it in the end. Who would have thought that the traitor would surrender to the enemy and treason!"
"The poor monk will go to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and clean up the house with his own hands!"
After saying that, Monk Kongji was about to go to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Monk Deshan quickly stopped him and advised: "Brother, you are going alone. What if you meet the empress?"
Monk Kongji said coldly: "If we encounter one, I'll just kill him and see if the rumors are true or false."
Monk Deshan said coldly: "What if it's false? Junior brother, do you want to die?"
Monk Kongji was too important to Xixia, and Shi Le could not let him take risks. He stood up and said, "This matter must be considered in the long run. The Imperial Master should not be impulsive."
Monk Kongji sighed and said, "This traitor will be killed by this poor monk. Don't worry, Your Majesty."
The three of them sat down, and Shi Le said, "The high priest of Us has arrived, and we must entertain him well."
"As for Mojie, I thought I would first send an envoy to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to ask for it and see what the empress said."
Monk Deshan said: "I'm afraid I won't give it."
In any case, Mojie was also a powerful martial artist with outstanding talents. When such a person arrived in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the empress would definitely not send him back.
From Mojie's own perspective, since he left Zhaoti Temple, there was no reason to come back.
Shi Le said helplessly: "Let's leave it at that for now. The most important thing is to entertain the high priest of Us right now."
Monk Kongji felt the same way. Mojie's matter was not urgent, so it was more important to entertain the high priest first.
Shi Le put on a dragon robe, lined up the emperor's ceremonial guard, and went to Zhaoti Temple with Kong Ji and Deshan.
....
Capital, Ten Mile Pavilion outside the west gate.
The empress stood at the intersection with her three princesses and hundreds of civil and military officials from both sides. Tens of thousands of people gathered behind her.
A carriage slowly moved forward. When the cavalry guard saw the Emperor's guard of honor, he hurriedly dismounted and reported: "General, the Holy Emperor has arrived."
In the carriage, Long Chen was discussing the "Infinite Life Sutra" with Mojie. When he heard the guard's report, Long Chen stopped, opened the curtain, and saw the empress and the civil and military officials.
"Hey? Why is the Holy One here?"
Long Chen was surprised.
His report to the empress only stated that he would return to Beijing with Mojie, and did not ask the empress to welcome him.
Mojie was also surprised and got off the carriage with Long Chen.
When the empress saw Long Chen and Mojie coming down, she walked out of the pavilion herself and stepped forward to greet them.
"Master Mojie, we meet again."
Long Chen hurriedly bowed and said, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Mojie was skinny in stature but in good spirits. He bowed and said, "The poor monk pays homage to the Holy One."
The empress smiled and said: "After hearing about the Master's Dharma, all the civil and military officials of the court and the people of the capital spontaneously came to greet him. I hope that the Master can promote the true Dharma of Buddhism in the Great Zhou Dynasty and save all sentient beings from the sea of suffering."
Mojie looked over and saw the princess and ministers standing on both sides saluting. The people bowed to Mojie and worshiped him. Incense was burned on both sides of the road to welcome him.
Mojie was shocked. He did not expect that the empress and the people of the capital valued him so much.
"My Buddha is merciful, and the poor monk is ashamed."
The empress smiled and said: "I have rebuilt the refuge temple for the master and invited the master to stay."
After saying this, the empress asked Mojie to mount his horse, and the imperial army cleared the way. Mojie walked in front and accepted the worship of the people.
The procession entered the west gate and walked through the main street of the capital. When the people heard that Mojie had arrived in the capital again, they came out to pay homage.
Mojie received unprecedented courtesy, and his idea of establishing another sect became more and more determined.
Long Chen walked beside the empress and whispered: "Your Majesty, this battle is too big."
The empress said: "Are you satisfied?"
