"What your Majesty said is true, but my thinking was indeed too superficial."
Not minding the sarcasm in Pei Hui's words at all, Xuan Jue just continued to report in a low voice with a calm face.
"After severely injuring the locust demon, Hui Ji officially left Tanzhou and headed to Chang'an and Kyoto."
Without Xuan Jue's detailed explanation, Pei Hui knew that Hui Ji must have had an uneasy journey along the way, which involved all kinds of debates, fighting against demons, and other actions.
Only in this way can one's reputation be enhanced to the maximum extent, which is exactly what those evil spirits with sneaky intentions are doing.
"Just tell me what he did after arriving in Chang'an. I'm very curious about his choices."
Pei Hui is telling the truth. Even with the help of her own family, it is still unknown whether Hui Ji can successfully "enter the performing arts emperor's family".
Therefore, Pei Hui is now very curious, can Hui Ji realize his long-cherished wish?
And in the process of realizing this long-cherished wish, what exactly did the unruly monk do?
"Your Majesty, you must not have imagined the first thing Huiji did after arriving in Chang'an..."
Speaking of this, even a great demon like Xuan Jue couldn't help but smile.
"After he arrived in Chang'an, he rushed directly to Ci'an Temple, the seat of the Weishi Sect, without even taking a moment's rest."
"That's where Master Xuanzang's last Mahayana scripture is stored..."
"Hui Ji actually forced his way in and injured many disciples of Ci'an Temple who came to stop him."
"After forcibly borrowing the Mahayana Sutra, Huiji looked up to the sky and laughed three times, 'The true meaning of this is already in my heart', then burned it completely, and then waved her sleeves and left."
Pei Hui was dumbfounded when he heard such rampant behavior.
Pei Hui considers herself to be a well-informed person, but she has never seen Hui Ji slap someone in the face a few times.
"As expected, he is worthy of being a disciple of the mad monk, and he has quite a bit of the demeanor of his master who forced his way into Zhongnan Mountain."
He nodded in agreement. In fact, Xuan Jue had the same expression as Pei Hui when he first heard about Hui Ji's behavior.
"So after that, the whole of Chang'an knew that a monk who claimed to be a 'disciple of the mad monk' injured the disciples of Ci'en Temple and forced them to read the Mahayana scripture..."
"Some good people even directly call him an 'evil monk', and of course some people call him a 'holy monk'."
"However, whether it is a good reputation or a bad reputation, Huiji finally achieved the achievement of 'famous throughout the world' in the shortest possible time."
Although Huiji's various behaviors can no longer be described as outrageous, Pei Hui feels inexplicably that this may be the inherent formal style of Zen Master Lingyou, right?
"Since he already has a reputation, people will naturally take the initiative to contact him."
"I'm curious now, who did the monk choose in the end?"
Lowering his voice slightly, Pei Hui was now very curious. With Hui Ji's style, who would he choose as the cornerstone of his "climbing".
"His choice is equally surprising because he chose King of Light Li Yi."
Even though Pei Hui had already made enough mental preparations, when she heard the answer, she couldn't help but be stunned for a long time.
"King of Light? That silly prince who has disappeared long ago—Li Yi?"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Chang'an, Kyoto, in a courtyard on the Central Avenue of Waiguo City.
"Monk Qiongjun?"
With a lazy call, a sweaty monk who was chopping wood in the yard stopped his work and turned to look at the man behind him with a look of helplessness.
"Master Huiji, what are you doing this time?"
There was a deep complaint in his tired voice. Monk Qiongjun realized that the man in front of him had never done anything human-related except that he looked like a human being.
Since meeting him, Monk Qiongjun's original daily routine of fasting and chanting Buddha's name has been completely broken.
You know, not to mention the life of fine clothing and fine food before becoming a monk, even in the temple that he brought with him after becoming a monk, few people dared to command Monk Qiongjun to do things so unscrupulously.
However, this world is different from the past. Facing Hui Ji who is like a bully, all Monk Qiongjun can do is complain verbally.
"Little monk, I'm hungry, go outside and make me a fast meal!"
It was obvious that she was asking for help, but Huiji's lazy and unbeatable appearance really made Monk Qiongjun hate her.
"you……"
Directly throwing down the ax in his hand, Monk Qiongjun glared at Hui Ji fiercely.
As a result, he found that the other party didn't even look at him, let alone show any other expressions.
"You wait!"
Trying his best to calm down his inner anger, Monk Qiongjun finally opened the door and chose to bring back a bowl of vegetarian food for Huiji.
If he continued to stay here, Monk Qiongjun was afraid that he would not be able to control his temper, so he picked up the ax and gave it to the guy who didn't look like a monk at all.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
It wasn't until Monk Qiongjun's back completely disappeared that Hui Ji slowly opened her eyes, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.
"Aren't you afraid that if you torment him like this, he will retaliate against you one day?"
A sudden voice came directly to Hui Jing's ears, and at the same time as this voice appeared, a young man wearing a five-color Taoist robe appeared.
"What do I have to be afraid of? Aren't I just a guy who has given up his identity and pretended to be crazy for more than ten years?"
"How dare you, a demon like you, appear in front of me?"
"Aren't you afraid that I will really slap you to death?"
Faced with Huiji's duplicitous remarks, Taoist Wuse just shook his head gently, with such a meaningful smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
"The legendary 'Evil Monk of the Sacred Heart' is indeed well-deserved, and his art of debating duplicity is unparalleled in the world."
"Although I don't know what you are planning, but you worked so hard to find this stupid prince who has been hiding for so many years. Don't you just want to use his identity to reach the sky?"
"From this perspective, we can be regarded as allies in the same trench."
At this point, the five-color Taoist suddenly said seriously.
"I don't know why you like such a stupid prince..."
"But your idea of tempering his mind and making him understand the suffering of the people is ultimately just an illusion."
"The royal family always only values power and interests."
"The so-called ambition and the so-called kindness are things that they can give up at any time."
"Instead of helping such a stupid prince who has nothing and may even bite you back..."
"Why don't you join my camp and bring down the national master Zhao Guizhen together, and avenge your master's old hatred from twenty years ago.",
