Long Chen sat down, with Bai Tingting and Zhang Qian on both sides. They were Long Chen's personal guards.
"Dazhu Kingdom came so early."
Wang Wei, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, sat behind him with a smile. Long Chen just nodded and had nothing to say to him.
Outsiders thought that Long Chen and Wang Wei were not easy to deal with, so they had to keep a distance in public.
"I've seen Dazhu Kingdom."
Duan Shuangshuang wore a cool white dress, a simple hair accessory on her head, and light makeup on her face, looking very bare-faced.
"Clear water produces hibiscus, and the natural carvings are removed, and Duan Shangshu becomes more and more beautiful."
Long Chen sincerely praised him.
"Hey...what are you doing?"
As soon as Long Chen finished speaking, Bai Tingting pinched Long Chen secretly, with a sour expression on her face.
Duan Shuangshuang smiled sweetly: "My lord, does your butt hurt? Maybe you have been sitting for too long."
Long Chen smiled awkwardly and turned to look at the stage.
The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government arrived one after another. Gongsun Linglong walked over with Gongsun Yun, and Long Chen and the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government bowed together to see them.
"Lao Zhuguo."
"I'll sit next to you. If there's anything I don't understand, I'll ask you."
Gongsun Yun sat down, Bai Tingting and Zhang Qian gave up their seats, and Gongsun Linglong also sat down next to him.
"I heard that you wrote many of Mojie's Buddhist scriptures? How can a pervert like you understand Buddhism?"
Gongsun Linglong was careless, which made Gongsun Yun a little embarrassed. He coughed dryly and said, "I'd better change places. Linglong comes with me."
Gongsun Linglong reluctantly followed Gongsun Yun to change places. Zhang Qian smiled and said: "This Linglong is really open-minded."
The crowd in the west parted a way, and the empress' guard of honor arrived, followed by the three princesses, and all the ministers stood up to greet them.
The empress nodded to the ministers and people, walked up to the stand, and sat on the throne, with the three princesses sitting next to her.
Outside the crowd, a sedan landed on a high hill. Ji Ba opened the curtain and looked at the altar with a telescope, and saw Long Chen sitting there.
The telescope moved back and saw a familiar figure, wearing a gold bamboo hat and a veil covering his face, and sitting next to him was a little girl eating snacks.
"Hmph, let me tell you, she won't come to such excitement."
When everyone arrived, a loud bell sounded from the bell tower.
when!
when!
when!
After three consecutive calls, the crowd gradually became quiet.
Mojie, wearing a gold silk cassock, walked up to the altar, bowed slightly to everyone, and then sat down.
Everyone held their breath, raised their ears, and waited quietly for Mojie to speak.
"All living beings are Buddhas, Buddhas are all living beings, all living beings have Buddha nature, and all living beings can become Buddhas!"
"Today, the poor monk explained to all the monks how to see the mind and nature, and how to practice and become a Buddha."
When everyone heard this, they were shocked.
Before that, only Zhaoti Temple lectured on Buddhism, requiring people to believe in and take refuge in the Buddha and obey the orders of Zhaoti Temple in order to be saved.
But Mojie said that all living beings have Buddha nature and all living beings can become Buddhas. Everyone seemed to see the hope of liberation.
Mojie began to preach, and everyone listened attentively...
The empress originally only planned to come to support this time, but after hearing what Mojie said, she gradually became fascinated.
"Is this all what you said?"
When the empress heard the wonderful idea, she couldn't help but turn around and ask Long Chen in a low voice.
"Most of it is, and some of it was understood by Mojie himself."
Long Chen told the truth.
The empress turned her head and continued to listen to the Fa.
Ji Ba was sitting in the sedan chair, listening to Mojie's words, and was shocked in his heart: Long Cheng'en is unfathomable, he can actually create his own sect, and he can speak so exquisitely that he can completely crush the Buddhism of Zhaoti Temple.
Fortunately, he doesn't live long. If he is given a few more years to live, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold him back!
The half-fairy lady was sitting not far behind Long Chen, watching the empress and Long Chen whispering through the white veil, with a strange expression on her face.
"Madam, what are you talking about? What about no self, no one, and no living beings?"
"Since all sentient beings have no form, what do we need from sentient beings? What do we need from Buddha Dharma? Doesn't it mean that there is nothing left?"
Ya'er finished eating snacks and wanted to buy snacks instead of listening to these noisy Buddhist scriptures.
A monk with a swollen forehead behind him listened to Ya'er's words, and his face showed a look of joy, and he praised: "The little benefactor has a lot of wisdom, and has already understood the essence of Master Mojie's Dharma. The poor monk Nanliang Baoguo Temple has great wisdom. The little benefactor
Are you willing to become a monk?"
Ya'er looked at the Tongzhi monk with strange eyes and complained: "Can't you see that I'm a girl? I'm still Tongzhi, so I'm mentally retarded!"
Monk Tongzhi was stunned and speechless. Ya'er was dressed like a boy, but he didn't recognize her.
"The bald donkey is annoying, and so is the one in the back. He's looking at everything and hiding in the sedan. It's so annoying!"
The half-fairy lady turned around and glared at Ya'er, who patiently sat down and continued to listen to Mojie's chatter.
A Dharma assembly was held until sunset, and everyone was mesmerized.
Mojie stood up and said: "Today the sermon is over and we will continue tomorrow."
Everyone bowed and worshiped, and Mojie returned to the temple.
The audience dispersed, and the empress and Long Chen rode the carriage back to the city together.
Emperor Xingwan asked: "Long Chengen, the Buddhist scriptures mentioned by Mojie were really written by you?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "The Holy One asked about it, but I only wrote part of it. Mojie himself understood a lot."
Emperor Xingwan asked: "Master Mojie said that form is emptiness and emptiness is form. Why are you so lustful?"
Well...
The empress frowned and said, "Xingwan!"
Emperor Lingyi smiled and said: "Mother, my second sister asked you well, since you know that color is emptiness, why are you still so lustful?"
Long Chen said: "The five aggregates are all empty, so how can there be color? There is no female color in my eyes, they are all empty."
Emperor Xingwan said contemptuously: "Then you should become a monk and see if you can quit sex."
Long Chen smiled and thought to himself: I will definitely not be a monk until I capture your family.
For three days, Mojie preached the Dharma to all sentient beings, and the number of people listening to the Dharma reached hundreds of thousands. Mojie's reputation and the new Buddhist teachings in Zhenfo Temple spread throughout the world.
....
Xixia, Zhaoti Temple.
Pu Xuan and Hong Zhi carried a pile of rice paper into the empty abbot's room. They sat down and said, "Junior brother, look at this, this is the heretic preached by Mojie at the Zhenfo Temple."
"He tore down the original Buddha that saved the world and built a new one called Avalokitesvara, saying that it could save people from suffering and save them. As long as they worshiped, they could become Buddhas and gain liberation."
"The people in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty flocked to him like ducks, and we believers who converted to Buddhism all converted to Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva."
The two of them talked very angrily, feeling that Mojie not only betrayed Zhaoti Temple, but also poached Zhaoti Temple.
Monk Kongji picked up the rice paper and read the scriptures on it carefully, his expression getting worse and worse.
"This is all nonsense. Any living being with Buddha nature can become a Buddha."
"If all living beings can become Buddhas, then who are we?"
"This is Long Chengen's magic..."
The two people chatted a lot next to each other, but Kongji remained silent and kept reading the Buddhist scriptures he was delivering.
Pu Xuan and Hong Zhi said they were tired and got up and left the abbot's room. Kong Ji was still watching.
At this point, it looks like three days.
Fudo Ming Wang Shi Ming entered the abbot's room, looked at Kong Ji with a haggard face, and asked in surprise: "Abbott, what's wrong with you?"
Kong Ji raised his head, his mouth was unshaven, his eyes were black, his eyes were fierce, and he said coldly: "Mojie must die!"
