I, Dasheng Sun, swear not to become a Buddha

Page 892

Sun Wukong can only say so now.

Li Zhi thought for a while and asked again: "Didn't the Taoist priest say last time that Xiliang women's country has started reform and gradually adjusted the population structure?"

"If there is a balance between women and men in the future, will they still be women as emperors?"

Monkey King now regrets that he told Li Zhi too much before, which made it difficult to get back together now.

"Probably not. I have met the empress of another country. The empress fell in love with a man and once said that if the man is willing to marry her, she will give up the throne to him."

"Oh? Then this man must have agreed. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to embrace a beautiful woman and win thousands of miles of land." Li Zhi asked enthusiastically

Sun Wukong shook his head and said, "He refused."

"Oh? Rejected? Why? Because the queen looks extremely ugly?" Li Zhi asked curiously.

Not only that, but the two guards behind him also cast puzzled eyes.

It is estimated that for them, no matter how ugly the queen is, she will definitely obey.

After all, the temptation of the throne is not something ordinary people can resist.

"No. On the contrary, Her Majesty looks like a fairy, and she is a rare beauty I have seen in the world for more than [-] years." Monkey King said with a smile.

Speaking of this, he thought of that pretty female apprentice, and the smile on his face became even stronger.

"Then why didn't this man agree to the queen?" Li Zhi asked in surprise.

The two guards behind him also showed expressions of disbelief. Anyway, if there is such a good thing, they must obey Her Majesty the Queen.

"Because he is an upright, upright, and highly respected person. He will not use this method to obtain the throne and beauties." Monkey King said with a straight face.

"Oh? Then this man is indeed a man with ideals and perseverance. I don't know where this man is. If there is an opportunity, I would really like to meet him." Li Zhi said with some admiration.

"He said he might come to Datang. But Pindao hasn't seen him since then." Sun Wukong said.

"Will he come to Datang? If he really can come to Datang, I will recommend him to be an official with my father." Li Zhi said seriously.

Li Zhi believes that this kind of person who can refuse the temptation must be a person with high moral character and suitable for being an official.

"If there is a destiny, Pindao will definitely convey His Royal Highness's kindness when we see him again." Sun Wukong nodded with a smile.

Sun Wukong breathed a sigh of relief, and successfully drew Li Zhi's attention elsewhere.

The matter of a woman being an emperor is over.

Afterwards, I chatted with Li Zhi about poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

It has to be said that although Li Zhi is young, his artistic attainments are still very high.

Monkey King has mastered the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to a great extent, and he is even with Li Zhi.

As for poems and songs, Sun Wukong caught Li Bai and just copied them.

Li Zhi listened to Sun Wukong's poems, and immediately fell in admiration.

He also asked someone to help him transcribe the poem of Monkey King.

I don't know how Li Bai will feel after reading these poems left by him.

Through chatting, Monkey King discovered Li Zhi's four hobbies.

Shooting, poetry, music, calligraphy.

These four are considered to be the current popular high-end art types.

In this regard, Li Shimin still supports the prince's contact with these things.

Especially shooting and hunting, Li Shimin often took him to hunt.

Lao Li has been a soldier all his life, and he is skilled in bow and horse.

Naturally, I also hope that my son is not a frail scholar.

It's a pity that although Li Zhi loves shooting and hunting, his physical fitness is not enough, which makes him unable to have a good time every time he goes hunting.

From literature and art to shooting and hunting, and Li Zhi's physical condition.

Li Zhi also knew that he was not in good health, so when he talked about this, he felt a little depressed.

Sun Wukong suddenly thought of something.

Li Zhi lived to be 55 years old, which is not a long lifespan for ordinary people.

But for the Emperor, it might have been about average.

It's just that Wu Zetian's wife was so alive that she died after spending more than 80.

If Li Zhi can live more than 80 years... then Wu Zetian can still be the emperor.

Thinking of this, Monkey King immediately had an idea.

Extend Li Zhi's life!

As long as Li Zhi is alive, no one will dare to jump out and act as a demon.

How to prolong life?

Sun Wukong didn't have the courage to change the book of life and death, not to mention that even if he dared, he had no way to change the book of life and death.

He was planning to find a way to change Li Zhi's physical condition.

Thereby prolonging Li Zhi's life.

Originally, Sun Wukong also felt that people's fate was destined, and nothing could be changed at all.

But what happened to Li Tai made him faintly feel that the records in the book of life and death could be regarded as another trajectory of the heavenly way.

As long as there is reasonable guidance, the records in the book of life and death can be changed automatically.

Li Tai's lifespan doubled, and Sun Wukong thought about it all night and probably understood the reason.

He chatted a lot with Li Tai that day, and Li Tai let go of his entanglement with the throne.

In this way, the mood is comfortable and the life is stable.

Life expectancy has also increased.

For Li Tai, it really means that Monkey King helped him change the book of life and death.

But did Sun Wukong break the law of Yin Division?

Obviously not.

This is a kind of guidance that changes the book of life and death.

If he can guide Li Tai, then it is possible to guide Li Zhi.

How to do it, Sun Wukong has to think carefully.

The two of them chatted until dusk, when the curfew was approaching, Li Zhicai got up to leave.

Every time he talks with Sun Wukong, he feels at ease.

Sun Wukong didn't treat him like a prince, they chatted like ordinary people, so Li Zhi felt very relaxed and could say whatever he wanted.

After bidding farewell to Monkey King, Li Zhi who had already stepped out suddenly turned back and asked:

"What did the real person say the name of the young man whom the Queen admired?"

Monkey King smiled arrogantly and said, "Monkey King!"

===Chapter 1209 Left===

Chapter 1209

Li Zhi returned to the palace.

His two servants immediately reported to Li Shimin what Li Zhi and Monkey King said and did.

"Xiliang Women's Country... I know this country, it is a very small country far away."

"This Perak real person got the right answer."

Li Shimin smiled.

It can be seen from Sun Wukong's words and deeds that he is indeed on his side.

At the very least, he should disapprove of women being emperors.

And judging from what happened to Yuan's uncle and nephew, he should still be anti-Buddhist.

Li Shimin's views on Buddhism and Taoism have always been purely religious.

As far as political affairs are concerned, Li Shimin does not believe in Buddhism or Taoism.

The reason why Tang Sanzang was asked to learn scriptures 14 years ago was also to slightly improve the strength of Buddhism.

After all, the Li family has the same surname as the Dao ancestor, which has caused the Dao sect to grow somewhat over the years.

Li Shimin needs Buddhism to come out and put Taoism in the right place.

But he absolutely does not want any party to become bigger and endanger the regime.

Xiao Yan's lesson from the past is there, and it has only been a hundred years.

Li Shimin will not make the same mistake as Xiao Yan.

Since Xuanzang went to the Western Regions to learn Buddhist scriptures, the influence of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty began to gradually rise.

Now that Xuanzang has not returned, the power of Buddhism has already surpassed that of Taoism.

In terms of the development of believers, Taoism can't keep up with Buddhism.

So in the last two years, Li Shimin has started to plan to help the Daoist sect.

The appearance of Monkey King gave Li Shimin an opportunity. He wanted Li Zhi to get close to Monkey King.

It is also holding the identity of a Taoist priest through Sun Wukong to eliminate the strong influence of Buddhism caused by Xuanzang after he came back from learning the scriptures.

Especially the influence of Buddhism on Prince Li Zhi.

Regarding whether Xuanzang could return, Li Shimin didn't hesitate at all.

He knew that there were gods and Buddhas in this world, and Xuanzang was appointed by Avalokitesvara to take Buddhist scriptures. If he couldn't retrieve the scriptures, no one would be able to come back.

Therefore, for the impact of Xuanzang's return from studying the scriptures, Li Shimin has been secretly planning from now on.

It has to be said that the Emperor Taizong's mind is too shrewd.

Nothing can be hidden from him.

"Let's find a place for that Perak real person. It's not an option to stay in an inn all the time. The dignified prince can't always go to the inn." Li Shimin said.

"He is a wanderer, so he may not live in Chang'an City for a long time." The servant said.

"Didn't he go to live at Xueshi Sun's house before? Oh yes, Xueshi Sun went to Haizhou this morning. I almost forgot about it." Li Shimin said with his forehead.

"On the way back, the prince went to Chongrenfang." A servant said.

"Oh? He has a heart. Let him handle it himself."

Chongrenfang is just southeast of the imperial city, closer to the imperial city than Shengyefang.

Li Zhi has a house there, but he has never been there.

Because the house is next to Changsun Wuji's house, this kid is a little afraid of Changsun Wuji.

After returning from the inn, he went to the other courtyard, obviously intending to give this house to Monkey King.

Li Shimin agrees with Li Zhi's approach. The emperor is rich all over the world, so he can't do anything if he wants to give his ministers something.

What's more, he is still a foreigner who has the ability to win over.

In fact, Li Zhi has not confirmed the identity of Sun Wukong as an alien, he simply thinks that Sun Wukong has helped him a lot, and wants to keep Sun Wukong in Chang'an.

Li Zhi also had people check the identity of the Perak veteran.

He was indeed a Taoist priest from the Wude Dynasty. This kind of well-informed and knowledgeable person has always been the object of his fancy.

What's more, Li Shimin just told him this morning to let him get closer to Monkey King.

Although Li Shimin didn't say it clearly, Li Zhi already had a little guess about the identity of Sun Wukong's alien.

These two fathers are actually shrewd lords, and the territory of the Tang Dynasty reached the extreme during Li Zhi's reign.

If it weren't for Li Zhi's doting on Wu Meiniang in his later years.
