The queen and empress were the first to salute, and the maids and princesses following her also bowed and saluted.
It was the Queen Empress who had received Baihuaxi's advice in advance and learned that although Master Tripitaka liked to call himself an ordinary monk, he was actually a highly virtuous and eminent monk with profound Buddhist teachings and powerful magical power.
Whether it's to liberate evil spirits or to transform sentient beings, it's all at your fingertips.
He also talked about several disciples of Master Tripitaka, especially when talking about the Great Sage, and they were even more flattered.
At this time, the queen took a few more glances at the great sage and said to her heart that this elder looked thin and small, but he only looked agile and did not expect to have such magical powers.
Five hundred years ago, the Great Sage Qitian who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace...previously he brought my prince's soul down to the underworld, chatting and laughing happily with the emperor of the underworld, and all the kings of the underworld greeted him with smiles...
But despite such a powerful person, he is willing to worship under the disciples of this holy god, which shows that this holy monk is really a great virtue in the world.
Although this miserable Wang'er has been wandering away for thirteen years, isn't it her blessing to have Master Tripitaka take the fancy of Master Tripitaka and enter Buddhism himself?
The Queen is a believer in Buddhism and has always been compassionate. She is also a person who eats fast and chants Buddha's name.
Therefore, there is no objection to his daughter becoming a monk and becoming a pure Buddhist Buddhist. She is a monk...could she not be her daughter?
What's more, in her current situation, it would be a great merit if she could put an end to her troubles in the mortal world and become a true cultivator.
It is better than leading the sons of two demon kings to be criticized by others.
After leading the master and apprentice to sit down, they chatted a few words about their daily life, which was nothing more than inquiring about some of the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty, as well as anecdotes about their journey as master and apprentice.
Mostly it was Xiao Bailong who answered on his behalf. He was the best at social situations like this. In addition, many of the daughters' families present also liked his appearance, so he felt like a fish in water. For a while, the guests and the host were enjoying themselves and enjoying themselves harmoniously.
"Ha ha ha ha--"
While everyone was listening in rapt attention, several bursts of laughter came from not far away.
It turned out that the king had just entered the royal garden, and his laughter had already arrived first. This was a way of showing closeness.
When everyone heard the sound, they paused for a while. As they stood up, the king also smiled in front of them. After both sides bowed to each other, the king also entered the main seat.
"I have prepared some vegetarian wine. I wonder if the holy monk has any taboos in this regard?"
"It's just plain wine, let me let some of the monk's disciples drink it for me." Fahai apologized to the king: "The monk has a precept and cannot drink alcohol."
"Yeah, I didn't take care of you properly, so I asked the holy monk Haihan."
"It doesn't matter."
After all, Xiniu Hezhou is the birthplace of Buddhism, and everyone tacitly understands Buddhist precepts and some taboos. Perhaps some subtle differences were not taken into account, but it is not considered rude.
At this time, when the words were explained clearly, the king sent someone to bring tea to Master Tripitaka.
"Come here, let's have a feast!"
Since we were entertaining monks, it was natural for us to have a vegetarian banquet, with all the royal chefs in the palace. In addition, the queen's meals were always vegetarian, so there was no difficulty, and it was naturally rich and complete.
One by one, the maids entered with lunch boxes in their hands, and each stayed in front of an elder. They began to prepare the meal, and for a while, the aroma was fragrant.
But Bajie stopped the maid who was setting the meal for Sha Wujing, and said with a smile: "Female donor, female donor... My junior brother doesn't eat grains, you just give his share to Lao Zhu This is where-"
Bajie's words made the maid who arranged the dishes very embarrassed, and she was a little at a loss for a moment.
"Hehehe."
The maid heard the elder in front of her laughing again, and subconsciously looked over... only to see that he was smiling without opening his mouth, and his voice only came from his chest and abdomen, "Female donor, just listen to the instructions of my second senior brother. The young monk cannot open his mouth. I can’t eat or drink...be careful of wasting food.”
The maid quickly turned to look at Master Tripitaka and His Majesty. She also said that the great monk she served had a vicious appearance, but he was a human being... but she never thought that he would be more troublesome than the previous two.
For a moment, I was a little envious of Master Tripitaka and the sisters beside Xiao Bailong. What kind of blessings had they accumulated in their previous lives to be able to serve these two people.

Chapter 119: I wish to worship the holy monk as the national teacher of my dynasty
The king first asked Master Tripitaka with his eyes, and when Master Tripitaka nodded in agreement, he said, "Just follow the instructions of the elders."
He only knew that this holy monk's disciples were full of strange people and strangers. Didn't he even meet figures like the Great Sage and Bajie at this moment?
It doesn't seem that unusual for Sha Wujing to skip meals. @精品\/书馆*First update~~
Besides...he still has two wolf grandsons here, so he has adapted in advance.
During the meal, the king once again toasted to Fahai to thank him for saving his daughter. After Fahai returned the gift with tea instead of sprinkles, the king said: "The elder's magic power is profound and the Buddha's teachings are vast. This time you will destroy the demons and save my king." My son returns to the court...I really don’t know how to repay such kindness...If the holy monk does not abandon me, I want to keep the holy monk in my country. If the holy monk is willing to leave his hair and return to secular life, I will become brothers with the holy monk. Sit on the dragon's throne and share the wealth..."
While the king was talking, he went to check Fahai's expression. He saw that Fahai was just listening quietly, neither moving unintentionally nor showing any impatience... While he was secretly convinced, he went to look at several of his disciples.
If only Master Tripitaka remained calm, that would be fine. After all, if such eminent monks were seduced by wealth and honor in the world, how could they still be called great virtues? But now even a few of his disciples looked disapproving, so he had no choice but to sigh and marvel.
This great disciple, Sun Wukong, is the Monkey King who his daughter said caused trouble in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. It is normal for him not to pay attention.
Look at the second disciple Zhu Bajie, but he only cares about the vegetarian food in front of him. It seems that the wealth he talks about is not as real as the food in front of him;
The third disciple, Sha Wujing, may have a cold face by nature, but his expression has not changed since he came in. Even when I was laughing just now, it was like this——
As for the young apprentice Ao Lie, he seemed to be having a good chat with the maid next to him. In fact, the king could see that there was no passion in his eyes and he was just communicating normally.
Even his two little grandsons, the older one was silent, after hearing his words, a little ridicule flashed in his eyes, as if to say: Who do you look down on?
The younger ones are ignorant and may not even know what the words in their mouths mean.
The king could see everyone's expressions in his eyes. In fact, it was just a glance. He didn't mean to test like this. It was just a skill he had honed after being a king for a long time and fighting wits and courage with his ministers all day long.
Observing words and emotions is actually a necessary skill for a conservative king like him, otherwise he will inevitably be deceived by his subordinates.
He really wanted to keep this saintly monk. He was a normal king. How could he not have some lofty ambitions in his mind?
Now that I have met such a virtuous and eminent monk, if I can really get his help, wouldn't the rise of his Baoxiang Kingdom be just around the corner?
Maybe it can be like the prosperous Tang Dynasty!
When the king saw Fahai looking over him, he knew that if he opened his mouth, he would definitely reject him. Unwilling to accept it, he inevitably wanted to make a desperate move. He rushed ahead and spoke: "If the holy monk is unwilling to return to secular life, I would like to worship the holy monk as my dynasty." The Imperial Preceptor, build a temple and worship the Imperial Preceptor, and rest with the fortune of the dynasty——"
hiss--
As soon as these words were spoken, even Fahai could not help but look stunned.
The Great Sage put down the kuaizi and the cup in his hands and began to look at the king seriously; Bajie also wiped his mouth, his eyes moving back and forth between the master and the king; nine spiritual bodies floated out of Sha Monk's body, and the same The princess and maids at the banquet were frightened; Xiao Bailong quickly got up to comfort them——
There was doubt in Dalang's eyes, and confusion appeared all over Erlang's body.
But...who is Fahai?
How could he be so disturbed by these words? He was just a little strange... Why could this king make such a decision?
Fahai was good at observing people's hearts, and for a moment he couldn't figure out the king's state of mind.
This statement sounded like he was out of anger, but it also seemed sincere and not hypocritical.
If the king seemed to have some regret when he first said these words, the longer he looked at him, the more determined his expression became.
interesting.
"I owe you your majesty's wrong love, but this time I will let you down." The more determined the king was, the more simply Fahai refused. There was no room for change, and he directly cut off this unrealistic relationship of the king. I thought, "The poor monk cannot agree and will not agree."
call--

Chapter 119: I wish to worship the holy monk as the national teacher of my dynasty
After hearing what Fahai said, the king sighed helplessly.
He actually knew this would be the result from the beginning, but he still wanted to give it a try, what if...what if?
"Please, holy monk, please don't blame me for being rude." The king picked up the sprinkling cup and said, "I will punish myself with a glass of wine."
Although the king's words did not cause any conflict, it still disturbed the mood. Soon the banquet came to an end and it was about to end.
"Holy Monk." The king stood up and bowed to Fahai again, saying: "Although the Holy Monk cannot be left in the court, after all, I am in trouble, and I have some knots in my heart. I want to ask the Holy Monk for advice. I wonder if the Holy Monk can be of help to me. Are you willing to enlighten me?"
"Amitabha." Fahai also stood up and recited the Buddha's name, saying: "I am capable of doing anything, and I can relieve His Majesty's worries. This is also the fate of a poor monk."
...
After the master was left behind, several apprentices also stayed in the palace.
Needless to say, the queen is a true devotee of Buddhism and has a kind heart. Seeing that several of her disciples, except for Xiao Bailong, were somewhat neglected, she asked Bai Huaxian to call them to her.
Others may be afraid of the appearance of the Great Sage and Bajie, but she feels the profound Buddha nature in them.
What's more, they are his daughter's saviors. After watching them for a long time, they feel friendly and pleasing to the eye. Even Bajie, who has a pig's head, is also much more straightforward. Update without error@
The queen looked at the two little demons following behind, "You two little guys, come here... let grandma take a look."
The queen has a kind heart, and because she chants Buddha's name all day long, she is also nourished by Buddhist scriptures and tainted with the light of the Buddha...
The two little demons could also feel the kindness of their grandmother, and seeing their mother nodding to them, they went forward together, walked to the queen's knees and bowed down: "My grandson has met my grandmother."
"Okay, okay, okay, okay - get up quickly!"
Seeing that the two little demons were so well-behaved, the queen became even more delighted and reached out to help them. .
