Chapter two hundred and twenty sixth chaos <fifteen>
Outside the camp of the Yulin Left Guard, three people were slowly moving. In addition to the old monk in monk's clothes and a little novice monk with beautiful eyes, the other was a young official with a slightly lame leg. At that time, the sun had only the last ray of afterglow, and the weak sunlight pulled their shadows into a light and thin shallow shadow. Against the backdrop of the majestic military camp in the distance, it actually had a bit of bleakness and tragic charm.
Tang Li, who was supported by the little shakimi, tried his best to straighten his back, looked at the military camp in front of him with full vigilance and tension, and then looked at the peaceful and peaceful old monk around him, and listened to his pondering and slowly said: "Although the master has the intention to save the world and eliminate the fire of war, I am really uneasy to let the master enter this place of fierce soldiers because of me!"
"For my Buddhists, the golden platform is like a thatched nest. If you don't mention this military camp, what's the battlefield where people can kill people? "At this point, the old monk notes the current military camp and smiled faintly: "As my friend said that day, the Buddha is in his heart, and cultivating Buddha is to cultivate his mind. Since that's the case, the military camp in front of me is the best place for my Buddhist children to practice. I haven't seen each other for two years, and I'm attached to the face!"
At this time, Tang Li no longer had the intention to argue with him, and only smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, saying, "What the master said!"
"No one is allowed to enter the camp at the Yulin Zuowei Camp, and he will stop quickly." A decisive shouting covered Tang Li's voice, and then a team of soldiers patrolling outside the camp walked over quickly.
When the team approached, the leading team saw that the three of them were outstanding, and they were stunned. At this moment, the old monk slowly stepped forward and said, "The old monk asked to see General Li, the left guard, to report it!"
The Sui and Tang Dynasties were the peak period of Buddhism and Taoism. The people worshipped Buddhism and Taoism in a very prosperous way. Although Taoism was a national religion, there were many Buddhists. Today, every view in the lower states today would be four temples to follow each other. This is due to this reality, and the devotion of Buddhist believers in this period was far beyond that of previous generations. It would be fine if a wealthy family had left a house for temples. There were many obsessed believers among the people who not only gave their wealth, but also deliberately damaged their bodies in front of the Buddha and were pious. All of these things showed the people's fanaticism about Buddhism.
The old monk's cultivation has reached the state of revealing Buddha nature. Without the help of incense, flowers and candles, it can be said that there is a solemn appearance between movement and stillness. Even though the old monk's outspoken Buddha intentions, the leading team was very vulgar. Before he could speak, the original fierce expression on his face had disappeared, but he was quite restrained and clasped his hands together.
However, before he could speak, he suddenly heard a scream from the team behind him and suddenly said, "The ancient Buddha of Jinzhou, this master is the ancient Buddha of Jinzhou who has been in seclusion in Jinzhou for 30 years."
The soldier's cry made the soldiers look sideways, "I was on duty at Chengtian Gate when His Majesty summoned the Buddha to the palace that day, so I would definitely not read it wrong." He turned a blind eye to everyone's eyes. After the soldier said this in a hurry, he turned red and bowed down, and abandoned the sword bow. The soldier kneeling on the ground clasped his hands together, and recited the Buddha's mouth repeatedly. The expression between his eyebrows and eyes looked really pious.
Jinzhou was in seclusion for thirty years. As a personal accomplice to Master Xuanzang, he was over 100 years old. It was comparable to the grand occasion when Zetian Wu Empress met Master Shenxiu when he entered the capital. All of this made people at that time regard the old monk as "living Buddha", and the four words "Jinzhou Ancient Buddha" are also deeply rooted in people's hearts. Although there are few people among the people of Chang'an who have seen him, the four words "Jinzhou Ancient Buddha" are well-known.
Looking at the old monk's Feng Shen in front of me, seeing this companion goodbye, and following the sergeant, several more soldiers bowed down. While bowing down, they unconsciously placed the military weapons in their hands aside.
"Amitabha!" Although he just yelled the Buddha's name indifferently, but when he sang it in the old monk, he had other powers that reached the hearts of the people, "I'm working hard!"
After being stunned by the sudden scene of his subordinates, the team was relieved of their sacrificial slap, and then he started to clasp the Buddha and said, "Wake a moment!" Then, he turned around and ran back to the camp.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the old monk pushed the head to the soldiers who were bowing down one by one. It is believed that he used the same method for Tang Li in this head. Therefore, after a person had been beaten, his face must be redder and his pious expression became heavier. Among them, there were even two people who couldn't bear the excitement in their hearts and sobbed out. At this moment, due to the old monk's behavior, the Zuowei camp, which was originally a stern slaughtering arrow, had a faint sense of Buddhist jungle outside the camp of Zuowei, feeling everything around him, and more and more soldiers bowed down. For a moment, the sound of worshiping Buddha was faintly ringing.
Seeing this scene in front of you, Tang Li had to sigh again that the power of religion is greater than that, just like everything in front of you. Even if you are so well-educated by great scholars, you may not be able to make these soldiers look like this.
After waiting for a while, there was no one coming from the camp, Tang Li couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. At this moment, he said to the old monk who had finished striking the head of the soldiers: "Two months ago, the old monk had lectured on the Diamond Sutra at Ci'en Temple, and Mr. Li also came to listen to the sutras with his mother."
Knowing that the old monk was prepared before coming, and looking at his peaceful and fulfilling expression, Tang Li's impatience calmed down a lot.
After waiting for a while, he saw the gate of the camp ahead suddenly opened. Then a middle-aged man who was over 40 years old quickly walked out. He walked all the way to the old monk and then folded his head and said, "I don't know that the great masters and Dharma masters have come here, and believers have misfortune and forgive me for their crimes!" After saying this, the man raised his head and said, "There is very simple in the military camp, and it is really rude and rude!"
Hearing the middle-aged man with a national face, he knew that this person was Li Qi, the Left Guard General. When he looked at the slightly crooked jade circumference on the waist of the round shirt and clothing, Tang Li knew that the reason why this person came late must have changed his armor and smelled the strong fragrance. It must be that although time was in a hurry, General Li tried his best to prepare. Judging from his appearance, if there was enough time, he would not have a bath.
Seeing all this in front of him, Tang Li felt a little relaxed, and at the same time he felt a little more respectful to the old monk around him. He became a spirit. This old monk was really sitting in the temple and observing the world. According to this, he suddenly said that he would come with Tang Li not long ago, and there was no sense of abruptness.
"Amitabha!" The old monk also sang the Buddha to thank Li Qi for his respect.
After the old monk's greeting, Li Qicai noticed Tang Li, who was supported by the little shaman, but although his eyes suddenly shrank, he did not say anything. He just bowed and said, "Please, great deity!"
As the old monk walked forward, the soldiers who had just fallen to the ground stood up one after another. However, they did not leave. Instead, they consciously formed a semicircle with pious faces, and guarded the old monk and went to the camp behind Tang Li and the other two.
I don’t know how the news of the ancient Buddha coming from Jinzhou was leaked. As the old monk walked along the way, more and more soldiers emerged from the barracks on both sides of the road in the middle of the camp. Most of these people came out empty-handedly, and stood with their hands together like others. Although there were many people on both sides of the road, there were few noises, and only the low sound of reciting Buddhas was buzzing.
In front of him, the three armies of the Left Guard were abandoned with an old monk. In addition to lamenting that the power of religion was greater than that of imagination, Tang Li couldn't help but suddenly have an absurd idea in his mind. If these monks were moved to the front line of Hedong to quell the rebellion, wouldn't they be able to support tens of thousands of troops?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Tang Li was stunned. After all, although there were many monks in this world, there was only one "Jinzhou Ancient Buddha". He really moved such a Taoist monk to the battle formation between the two armies. Not to mention whether the old monk would go, this idea alone was already ridiculous enough. Moreover, most of the elite soldiers in An Lushan's army were Xi, Khitan, Shiwei and other alien races, and most of these people did not believe in Buddhism.
When Tang Li was thinking a lot, several people had already arrived outside the Central Army camp. When they were about to step into the room, they saw the old monk who had just come silently turned around slowly. After taking a look at the soldiers behind him, they closed their chests and sang Buddha again and said, "Don't do all evil, do all good!"
The eight characters have a long and long aura, so it seems that the old monk's tone is light, but its voice is like the wind blowing across the camp in March. Although the soldiers on both sides can hear it clearly. Faced with such supernatural powers, the sound of reciting Buddha is getting more and more popular. If you don't look at the settings in the barracks and everyone's clothes and only listen to the sound, it will inevitably make people wonder which great master jungle was in.
After entering the central army, Li Qi asked the old monk to sit and serve tea, but he never looked at Tang Li with a false appearance. In his eyes, he seemed to have no such person.
"Entering the camp of the three armies with a transcendence, the old monk came for the believers of Chang'an!" At this point, the old monk glanced at Tang Li, then chanted the Buddha's name and closed his eyes, looking at the expression on his face as if he had entered meditation.
"Amitabha!" Li Qi then chanted the Buddha's words with the old monk, then turned around to look at Tang Li, and walked towards the barracks on the left side of the central army.
After entering this small room, Li Qi turned around and carefully closed the door and turned his head to Tang Li, "You can actually tell me that the great master of Peeping the Lord has come. Mr. Tang is a good method! He is still as a chaotic minister, but he dares to enter my camp. Mr. Tang is very brave! I know the purpose of this coming. But no matter you have the eloquence of Su Qin and Zhang Yi, it is impossible to tell me to do such unfaithful and unrighteous things. For the sake of the face of Peeping the Lord and his former love for ministers, I accompanied him with a cup of tea and parted with him. As for the others, please don't speak out!"
"General Li is wrong!" As soon as Zhen sat here, Tang Li's heart was completely settled. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. Then he smiled and said, "If it were not for the original intention of the great masters, how could I persuade him to do it? The master first said in the camp gate that 'Don't do all evil, do all good', and then said, 'Come for the believers in Chang'an'. With the general's wisdom, how could he not tell the meaning of enlightenment?"
Li Qi just responded lightly to what Tang Li said: "Although Master Guiye's Buddhist teachings are profound, he is still in a cool state of Buddhist temples all day long, and occasionally blinded by others! Now Your Majesty is infected with the dragon body, and it is natural for the prince to monitor national affairs with the honor of the Eastern Palace. Such a way of adapting to people is a blessing for all people in the world! It is also in line with the master's compassion for the heavens and the others."
"General Li is wrong again! Can people be bullied, can heaven be bullied?" Put down the teacup and met Li Qi's gaze. Tang Li said without any concealment in his tone: "Li Heng is cold-hearted and weak by nature, and is also cowardly and mean and ruthless. It would be fine if these personal morals are not cultivated. This person, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, does not hesitate to collude with foreign races to seek evil. How can the Eastern Palace, who is disloyal to the country, respond to others? In order to ascend the throne, he does not hesitate to poison the emperor's father with the body of a son. How can a person who is unfilial to the son obey the heaven? What a kind of person who obeys the heaven! Could General Li also think that naivety is blind?"
"You are so brave to slander the Eastern Palace!" As soon as Tang Li finished speaking, Li Qi, whose face changed drastically, immediately slapped the table: "We need to know that the crime of 'great disrespect' among the ten major rebellions was set up for you!"
"The evidence is all there is! How can we slander?" Tang Li was not moved by Li Qi's behavior at all. His voice was as steady as before. "But the general saw the rebels' rebellion but he ignored him. Could it be that he forgot that there is a crime of "conspiracy to rebel" in the [Da Tang Laws]? Is this the leader of the ten major rebels?"
"So brave!"
"How bold can I be, a scholar? But the general is still so at ease in a situation where he will die. He is so bold that he really admires me!"
Ignoring the sneer on Li Qi's face, Tang Ligu continued: "The Chang'an army was on the rise, and the general kept his troops. He thought it was a strategy to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, but he didn't know that he had already entered a situation of death. If I were the general, or the Right Guard immediately led his troops to join the army at the beginning of the uprising, or led the army to suppress the rebellion, no matter how the two chose, the general would never remain as calm as he did in front of him."
"In the rebellion of the imperial capital, the general was already at the forefront of the storm. How could he be able to defend himself even if he wanted to be successful? If Li Heng could really hold the throne firmly, how could he not be hated by the general's performance today? If Li Heng failed to rebel, the day when the royal army arrived, the general's head would be different! "The fingers tapped the desk beside him, and Tang Li's voice came quietly: "The chaos has been going on for several hours. With Li Heng's nature, even if the general is now in a fight, it is difficult to relieve his doubts. At this moment, the general is getting more and more advanced!"
"You." Listening to Tang Li's words and sentences, although Li Qi suppressed himself, his expression on his face was still changing continuously. As for his original intention, he really hoped that he could stay out of this mutiny, and not offend both sides, and be able to protect himself when the situation was settled. Therefore, he maintained such a calm attitude in the current chaos in Chang'an. In fact, he had not thought that Tang Li said, but most people would be lucky when they were in this dilemma. Now these ideas of luck can protect themselves clearly have been completely broken. Then, following Tang Li's words, thinking about the consequences of this matter, how could Li Qi not be confused?
"Our dynasty has a deep foundation. Although Li Heng dared to take advantage of the world's great power and raise an army to rebel, how could there be no loyal ministers and generals leading the king's army to kill the rebellion and quell the riots? "Tang Li did not give Li Qi much breathing opportunity." I think the general didn't know that now the three routes and nine cavalry messengers have been to Hedong and Shannan. According to their route, at most, General Li Guangbi's army should enter Tongguan and return to the capital. As for the other two towns, it would only be three or five days in the evening. With Chang'an's size, even if it has nine thousand military forces, defending the city is just a joke!"
"The messenger you sent?" When asked such a question, Tang Li knew that Li Qi was really confused. With a smile, he saw him rising up at his desk, leaning over to look at Li Qi, and saying in a word, "Li Heng colluded with big food and poisoning Your Majesty, the evidence of poisoning Your Majesty is conclusive. If a general can rebel and quell the rebellion, it is indeed the so-called "integrity and follow the heavens and the actions of others." This time, he should be the general as the first meritorious official! With such a great contribution as the general is so old that he will make his paintings in the future, and even if he is not talented, he is willing to have the strength to protect it!"
The first hero to quell the rebellion and draw the Lingyan Pavilion, these two things are really great temptation for the generals. Tang Li suppressed first and then promoted him, and this remark made Li Qi feel a little more distracted.
"Your Majesty is seriously ill and cannot be in charge of the ministers. It is natural for the prince to supervise the state affairs with the honor of the Eastern Palace!" Without waiting for Li Qi to finish his speech, Tang Li said: "When the thief chaos arose, Your Majesty has given His Highness the King of Liang a complete set of ceremonial guards and appointed him as the military supervisor. When the royal family was overturned, King of Liang used the Emperor's sword to order the army to defend the king to suppress the rebellion. As the left guard of Yulin, the general should be the first to respond and have seen his loyalty!"
When he heard that King Liang had a sword of the emperor, Li Qi's expression moved again. He was so irritable that he could no longer sit down. He stood up with his hands behind his back and pondered around the room.
"The right guard raised his troops in a hurry, and the general did not move. Although Li Heng was unable to suppress the left guard because of insufficient troops, there must be many people monitoring the general's actions. I was afraid that the situation of the admiral's advance to the camp and the general's respectful greeting was not hidden. "At this point, Tang Li gently reminded Li Qi, who was walking around the room, and said: "One is to suppress the rebellion and the other is to be a traitor, the general's decision is not long!"
Li Qi turned around and glared at Tang Li and said, "You!"
Just at this moment, I heard the sound of footsteps outside the room, and then a soldier pushed the door and entered: "Report, please see the general if you are a member of the army under the Yulin Right Guard outside the camp!"
"Take him in!" He harshly withdrew his gaze from Tang Li. After gritting his teeth and giving instructions, Li Qi pushed the door straight to the master Peye of the Central Army, folded his head and bowed: "It is hard to calm down in good faith! I also ask the great masters to use their supreme magic power to guide the believers."
Peeking opens his eyes, reaches out to Li Qi to touch his head, and slowly says, "Don't do all evil, do all good! Amitabha!"
Li Qi's face changed, and the muscles at the corner of his mouth rolled constantly. After Peeking Ye finished his head, he stood up and turned his head to look at Tang Li again, and suddenly said loudly: "Come on! I'll order the three armies to gather, welcome the Emperor's Sword, and follow His Highness Liang to quell the rebellion!"
Chapter completed!
