Chapter 316 Master Bukong is really busy
Having said that, it is not so easy to come up with a suitable solution.
When catching a thief, one must take out the dirty work. Prince Cheng was just a little arrogant before, but in the final analysis, he did not take any substantial action.
You can't really do anything to him just because of these things.
Otherwise, the one being blamed by the world would not be Prince Cheng, but the emperor himself.
We can't use force, so we have to think of other ways.
Seeing Chu Huaixu also frowning tightly, the emperor hurriedly whispered to comfort him, "These things are not urgent, don't think too much about it, let's eat first!"
Thinking too much is most harmful to your health.
Chu Huaixu is young and has only just recovered from his illness. He cannot let these things harm his body.
Yu Youning ate his fill in the palace, and when he saw that it was getting dark, he suggested going back home.
Chu Huaixu stood up immediately after hearing this, "Youning, I'll take you back."
Hearing this, Yu Youning blinked, "Then should I take you back later?"
If I keep sending things like this, I won’t be able to sleep tonight!
Without waiting for Chu Huaixu to speak, Yu Youning waved his hand and said, "You don't have to see me off. I can go back by myself in the carriage!"
Seeing her like this, Chu Huaixu didn't know what to say. He could only send Yu Youning to the palace gate and watch her leave in the carriage.
Chu Huaixu didn't go himself, but Liuyun followed him.
It was not until Liuyun came back and said that Yu Youning had returned safely to the Wen Mansion that Chu Huaixu was completely relieved.
-
When Yu Youning returned to the mansion, Yu Tingwan and others had just finished dinner.
Seeing Yu Youning coming back, Yu Tingwan waved at her and said, "Youning, you're getting braver and braver. You even dare to practice with a black bear."
As she spoke, she deliberately put on a stern face.
Yu Youning hugged Yu Tingwan's arm and asked, "Mom, are bear paws delicious?"
Before Yu Tingwan could answer, Nangong Meng rubbed her stomach with a satisfied look on her face. "Youning, bear paws are indeed delicious! If there's another chance, can you take me with you to hunt black bears?"
As a teenage girl, she is well protected by her family and has a childlike nature.
Yu Youning had already agreed with a smile, "Okay! I'll take you with me then!"
Yu Tingwan wanted to laugh but felt helpless. When these two people got together, the black bear would have to hide back in the mountains and forests.
"We'll talk about the black bear later." Yu Tingwan said with a smile, "Go back quickly to wash up and rest, you still have things to do tomorrow."
"Something?" Yu Youning was a little surprised. "What's going on tomorrow?"
"Did you forget?" Yu Tingwan tapped Yu Youning's forehead. "Didn't you promise the Buddhist that you would go listen to him and several other monks give a lecture tomorrow?"
Yu Youning's eyes widened at first, and then she said a little embarrassedly, "It is true, I forgot about it before! Thank you, mother, for reminding me. I'm going to go wash up and go to bed now!"
Watching Yu Youning skipping away, Yu Tingwan smiled and shook his head, then stood up and said to Nangong Meng, "You should go back and rest soon too. You can join us tomorrow to watch the fun!"
Nangong Meng was a child at heart and loved to watch the fun, so he agreed immediately.
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning.
Yu Youning had breakfast and was about to go out when Chu Huaixu arrived.
Obviously, he remembered this incident too.
The place where the sutras were preached was in an open area. This was already a prosperous and lively place. Now a high platform was set up, and Buddhist disciples and some enlightened monks were preaching together, which naturally attracted countless people.
Yu Youning and the others arrived not too late, but they still had a hard time moving forward.
Fortunately, Chu Huaixu had already booked a seat in a private room on the second floor of the teahouse next door.
Open the window and sit by the window. Not only can you see and hear clearly, but you don’t have to squeeze with others. It’s a very good position.
As soon as he arrived in the box, Yu Youning saw the emperor and the empress.
The emperor and empress were dressed in casual clothes, obviously traveling incognito, probably because they didn't want to cause too much commotion.
After Marshal Wen bowed, he sat down with the emperor.
The Queen spoke a few words to Yu Youning, then pulled Yu Tingwan away to chat.
Yu Youning didn't feel restrained at all. After all, she had met the emperor and empress so many times that she had long been accustomed to it.
Yu Youning and Chu Huaixu came to the window together and knelt on the bench so that they could see clearly below.
The two of them came just in time.
At this time, three monks in robes were walking towards the stage and sitting on their respective cushions.
Opposite them, Nian Yi was sitting there with his hands folded.
Afraid that Yu Youning didn't recognize these three eminent monks, Chu Huaixu explained in a low voice, "The one sitting in the middle is Master Huaisu, the abbot of Huangjue Temple. The thin one on his left is Master Hanshan, the abbot of Yong'an Temple. The one on his right is Master Bukong, the abbot of Changlin Temple.
These three masters are all highly accomplished monks who grew up in temples, are well versed in Buddhism, and have done many good deeds. They can truly be said to have saved all living beings.
Yu Youning listened attentively, but when he heard Chu Huaixu introduce the last person, his expression became a little strange.
"Master Amoghavajra?"
Chu Huaixu immediately noticed that Yu Youning was in a strange mood, "Youning, what's wrong?"
"Is he called Master Bukong because he's always busy?"
Chu Huaixu was about to speak when he heard Yu Youning say another sentence.
"But he is indeed very busy."
The emperor just walked over and heard Yu Youning's words. He immediately became interested. "Youning, why do you say that?"
Yu Youning pointed at Master Bukong and said, "Look, his eyes are dull, and the dark circles under his eyes are clearly not caused in a day. His skin is pale and sagging, and his lips are a bit bluish-white. Even though he's sitting there, you can still see that his hands and feet are weak, and his body is weak. It's obvious that he's overindulged. To become like this, he must have been busy all night long. Isn't that very busy?"
Hearing Yu Youning's words, the emperor was stunned. "Youning...are you telling the truth?"
Although he asked this, he actually believed it completely in his heart.
If others say this, it may be nonsense.
But this is Yu Youning!
It is impossible for Yu Youning to talk nonsense!
It is reasonable that she can easily spot these problems given her advanced medical skills.
The more he believed Yu Youning, the angrier the emperor became.
A master praised by everyone, the abbot of Changlin Temple, a monk known as a highly accomplished monk, actually indulged in excessive sexual activities in private!
Just thinking about it made the emperor furious.
"Bring him here to me now! Such a person is unfit to preach the Dharma. He is simply defiling the ears of the people!"
When the guards heard the emperor's order, they did not dare to hesitate and went downstairs immediately.
On the high platform, several eminent monks have begun to preach Buddhism.
The sudden appearance of the guards interrupted them and made them look confused.
Yuwen Cheng looked at Master Bukong and said, "Master Bukong, please come with us. The nobleman wants to see you."
Master Bukong chanted a Buddhist verse, "Amitabha, I am currently preaching Buddhism. How about waiting until this is over before going to see you, my lord?"
It’s not that he really doesn’t want to see him.
I just want to refuse and raise my own value.
At the same time, it is also to establish an image of not fearing power in the hearts of the people.
As expected, after hearing what Master Amoghavajra said, the people applauded.
Master Bukong's expression remained unchanged, but a smile flashed across his eyes.
This wasn't the first time he had done this, and he was already very familiar with it.
The appearance of this guard just happened to be his stepping stone!
If Bukong had not been sure that the guard he had arranged was not the one in front of him, he would have thought that the person in front of him was really someone he had brought.
The cooperation is really great!
Yuwen Cheng listened to the people's words and looked at Bukong in front of him, and his disgust grew even stronger.
"This noble man, you can't just ignore him if you don't want to see him. Get up immediately, or you won't be able to bear the consequences."
Before Master Bukong could say anything, the people around him were already dissatisfied.
"Tell me, who is the noble person behind you?"
"Speak! Even the Emperor respects these eminent monks and would never treat them like this. Who is the person behind you? How dare you be even more arrogant than the Emperor?"
"You'd better apologize to the master immediately and wait patiently. If you offend the master again, the Buddha will remember you and you won't have a good time!"
After hearing these words, Yuwen Cheng suddenly felt furious.
According to these people, Amoghavajra is equivalent to Buddha?
Is he worthy of it?
These people were all kept in the dark and knew nothing, yet they were still trying to avoid getting caught.
How...ignorant!
But these are ordinary people. Although they are a little ignorant and speak for Bukong, it is only because they are deceived by Bukong. We really cannot use violence against them.
Just when Yuwen Cheng was thinking of tying Bukong up and taking him away, Bukong stood up.
"Donors, there's no need to be so angry. Since you are the noble who wants to see me, I will go. Don't be impulsive, or you will get into trouble."
When many people heard this, their eyes were red.
Master Amoghavajra is so great!
Even at this time, I still have to think about them!
How could there be such a good person as Master Amoghavajra!
Everyone was so moved that they actually knelt down and watched Bukong follow Yuwen Cheng into the teahouse.
The emperor watched this scene from beginning to end, his eyebrows twitching wildly.
Although he was angry at the ignorance of these people, he also knew that the most hateful one among them was Bukong.
The emperor walked back into the room from the window and sat upright on the armchair.
Soon, Yuwen Cheng pushed open the door and led Bukong in.
Bukong had met the emperor before, more than once.
When he saw the emperor in casual clothes, he was stunned for a moment, and then felt endless regret.
How could the noble person who wanted to see him be the emperor?
