Chapter 108 The Emperor's Face



General, I saw the Buddha's light above your head."

However, the abbot saw a strange Buddha light on Mu Zisheng who was meditating.

Is this what many monastic disciples pursue?

Although Mu Zisheng is not a monk, he has amazing Buddha light on his body!

This is a Buddhist who attains enlightenment once in a thousand years!

When the abbot said this, he was also testing the general.

If the general had kept his son in the temple, it would have been a highlight and honor for Jinshan Temple.

Many temples want to produce a Buddhist who is highly respected.

General Mu heard this and looked at Luo Shi, "Is this true?"

It seems that what Yan'er said is right.

"Yes, I wonder what your Excellency thinks. Can he stay in Jinshan Temple?" The abbot noticed that the general was slightly interested, so he struck while the iron was hot.

"As a parent, I cannot control my child's thoughts. It depends on his own wishes," said General Mu.

"Old Five."

"Dad, why did you call me?" After Mu Zisheng finished his meditation, he walked up to General Mu.

General Mu saw the abbot and said that there was Buddha's light on Mu Zisheng.

He didn't know what Buddha's light was.

But one could indeed vaguely see a flash of golden light on Mu Zisheng's body.

【It takes five generations of people doing good deeds and accumulating virtues for a family to have a Buddhist.】

Mu Zisheng was slightly stunned when he heard this.

What?

Is he really going to become a monk?

He felt that as soon as he approached Jinshan Temple, he felt as if he was in a pure land.

[The ancestors in the underworld are eagerly looking forward to their children and grandchildren chanting Buddha's name, so that all the ancestors can also benefit from it and increase their blessings, ascend to heaven or be reborn in the Pure Land, but not everyone has the affinity with Buddha. ]

[And my fifth brother will be a highly respected Buddhist in the future, which will be a blessing to both the common people and the court.]

Mu Zisheng: Is there such a thing? Then am I not the chosen one?

If he can achieve enlightenment through chanting Buddha's name and entering Buddhism, his whole family will ascend to heaven.

It can also ensure the Mu family's eternal prosperity and peace, so why not do it?

This is a good deed, he is a filial son!

Everyone looked at Mu Zisheng.

Mu Zisheng coughed lightly, "Dad, what do you want from me?"

General Mu looked at his good-for-nothing son and felt relieved when he heard what his daughter said. Everyone has their own path to take.

If Mu Zisheng really wanted to become a monk, he couldn't do anything about it.

As a father, all I can do is support him.

"The abbot said that you have a connection with Buddhism. Do you want to stay in Jinshan Temple or go back with us?" General Mu asked bluntly.

Mu Zisheng pretended to be confused, scratched his head and asked, "Dad, what is Buddha's fate?"

"It means you have a connection with Buddhism. You know everything related to Buddhism," said General Mu.

"I see. No wonder I heard the wooden fish sound. I can memorize everything I read and apply it to other situations."

Mu Zisheng paused and continued, "Just now I saw them meditating, so I naturally went to meditate too. I listened to them chanting Buddhist scriptures, and after listening for a while, I learned how to chant as well."

“So this is the Buddha’s fate?”

As Mu Zisheng spoke, he looked at the abbot and asked, "What are the requirements for becoming a monk?"

"Amitabha." The abbot bowed and said, "I am willing to become a monk, donor."

"Can I practice with my hair intact?" Mu Zisheng asked.

He thought the man had long flowing hair and was handsome and elegant.

His sister really likes Yun Mo Ran’s long hair tied up high, and says that Yun Mo Ran is so handsome and cool!

Since his sister is so cute, he naturally wants to be the unique and handsome brother in her eyes.

"Yes." The abbot said without thinking.

Being able to keep Mu Zisheng in Jinshan Temple would be a blessing for Jinshan Temple.

And Jinshan Temple will also become a famous temple!

"Okay, I'll stay in the temple and study Buddhism with the abbot, but I'll still be studying at the Imperial College." Mu Zisheng finally spoke up.

He wants to study, but learning Buddhism can also improve the family's fortunes.

It turns out that you can't have your cake and eat it too.

"There are also schools in Buddhism. In addition to what you learn in the Imperial College, there is an extra Buddhist subject." The abbot said with a smile.

This child is a studious person.

"I'm afraid the abbot hasn't heard of my notorious misdeeds. Others say that I'm naughty, unlearned, dull-witted, and stupid, a piece of useless mud... Are you sure I have a connection with Buddhism?"

Mu Zisheng looked at the abbot and asked.

The abbot touched Mu Zisheng's head and said, "No one is perfect, as long as you have a heart for goodness."

"Since the abbot doesn't dislike me, I won't let you down." Mu Zisheng said.

General Mu looked at his son, who was usually naughty, and saw that he was gradually becoming sensible.

In the past, he would have started to be rude.

He had also been hung up and beaten.

I didn’t expect that I now understand Buddhist etiquette.

The child is teachable.

Mu Zisheng said, and then looked at General Mu and Luo:

"Dad, Mom, I'm going to become a monk now. I can't be with you to show my filial piety. Please forgive me for being unfilial!"

As Mu Zisheng spoke, he knelt down in front of General Mu and Luo.

Then kowtow three times.

"Mom and Dad, don't worry about me. I can take good care of myself."

General Mu nodded, "Yes."

Luo's eyes were red, and she was a little reluctant, "You must listen to the abbot, don't make trouble, and devote yourself to Buddhism."

The Luo family was somewhat reluctant to let go.

Mu Zisheng is only ten years old.

But I want to enter Buddhism.

If you want to see Mu Zisheng in the future, you have to come to Jinshan Temple.

"I will remember mother's words and recite scriptures and chant Buddha's name every day to accumulate merits for my sister, parents and brothers! I hope you will be safe, happy and worry-free!" Mu Zisheng said.

But the abbot's gaze was deeply fixed on Yun Moyan at this moment.

"General, who is this?" The abbot looked at Yun Moyan and asked General Mu.

"He is my savior and my daughter's personal bodyguard." General Mu responded.

Abbot: Guard? Impossible. This face is that of an emperor.

Mu Yan glared at the abbot and made a face at him.

Why is this old abbot always secretly staring at Brother Mo Ran? It’s not enough for him to target my fifth brother, is he trying to persuade my Brother Mo Ran to convert to Buddhism as well?

Or does the abbot really have a keen eye and can see a person's future at a glance?

The abbot also noticed Mu Yan and saw that she was a little cute girl.

I was also stunned.

Then he looked shocked.

This little milk ball is more like a soul from another world...

She is also an unfathomable person and it is impossible to see through her.

But he didn't tell General Mu this.

I was afraid that General Mu would be frightened.

The abbot changed his words, "Congratulations, General, and congratulations to the General's wife. Your daughter will be very rich and noble in the future, and will be the mother of the country."

General Mu and Luo looked at each other after hearing this.

Mother of the country?

Queen?

"I just hope that my daughter is safe and happy. Being the mother of the country is too far-fetched." General Mu said with a smile.

[Dad, what’s wrong? Do you think your daughter is unworthy? Woohoo, my dad doesn’t even believe me~]

Mu Yan burst into tears.

General Mu: No way! My daughter doesn't want to compete with a bunch of women for a man!

After saying goodbye to his family, Mu Zisheng followed the abbot up the hundred-step staircase.

Luo whispered in General Mu's ear, "I just want to verify whether Lao Wu has a connection with Buddhism and Taoism, so that he can study hard."

“I didn’t expect him to become a monk directly.”

General Mu comforted Luo Shi, "It's okay, he just became a monk, not to die."

Luo: ...

"My husband, what you said makes a lot of sense."

Hearing what General Mu said, Luo said.

[Dad and Mom, don't worry. Fifth Brother is very lucky. We should be happy for him.]

Mu Yan lay on Yun Moyan's shoulder and saw that her parents looked worried.

I thought they were reluctant to let go and were worried about Mu Zisheng.
