Wu Zetian was also very satisfied with this grandson who was able to contribute to the Buddha's words at such a critical moment.

She had a good impression of the young king, and now she was very fond of it. Therefore, during the period when she was waiting for the monks of Weiguo Temple to enter the palace, she did not neglect this grandson, but instead sat in the table and chatted with Li Tong about some gossip.

Although the topic was easy, Li Tong answered very cautiously. To be honest, he was not very happy to have such communication with his grandmother. It was not a normal relationship between grandparents and grandchildren. Wu Zetian was sensitive and suspicious. Even if he had a very relaxed question, Li Tong had to think carefully when answering, and felt that it was too tiring to maintain such harmony.

According to Li Tong's idea, I have helped you a lot this time. You can quickly add me to the title, and then hurry up and go there yourself, and don't have to think about giving care to orphans. I can help myself to warm up this kind of human favor and face-saving mind.

But he also understood that it didn't matter what he thought. The so-called thunder, rain and dew were all the kindness of the king. His grandmother used to ignore him. Now he could only bear the enthusiasm and concern for him.

In fact, putting aside the awkward current situation and their respective identities, Li Tong thinks that Wu Zetian is also a very charming person. When chatting, there is a wide range of topics and delicate human feelings. When chatting with such people, there is no need to worry about the lack of topics and the unstoppable situation. Even if it is an ordinary little thing, it can make people feel interesting.

For example, a topic I just talked about, extends from the harmony of the Buddhist chants used in the "Wanxiang" song he expanded earlier to the Chen Siwang Cao Zhi, and even the stories of characters in the Six Dynasties were quick and clear. Sometimes Li Tong felt that he could not even keep up with his grandmother's topic.

Li Tong had to sigh that his grandmother's personal qualities are really strong. If he has such an outstanding relative in the family, if he can restrain himself in his desire for power and choose to teach his children and grandchildren, it is definitely a blessing for the family. Any descendant who has the qualities of a middle-aged man can produce many talents.

At least during the time Li Tong talked to his grandmother, he felt that his vision was much broader, and he had a more thorough understanding of some issues. He also expressed his sincere feelings instead of flattering: "His Majesty the Emperor of God is very knowledgeable, I am fortunate to be able to listen to the Hadith in the audience, and I have a deeper understanding of myself, and I can't pursue my own thoughts, and I feel that my knowledge in previous years is deserted..."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian laughed: "Those who can benefit others may not be knowledgeable. At your age, you are already lacking in the accumulation of time and being more knowledgeable than elders. Isn't it a shame for yourself? A person's material quality does not depend on the amount of knowledge, but on whether he knows the great meaning. It is better to know a little bit more. An old scholar in cranes also needs to beg for food. If you take shape, you need to snatch your breasts. It can be seen that although all things are different in shape, they are also in the same way as their own pretentiousness..."

Li Tong did not dare to answer this metaphysical and ideological topic easily, but just listened with a respectful look on his face.

No matter how he has no bottom line, he is embarrassed to open his mouth and say that licking his grandmother is my true knowledge sect. In addition, it is a bit inappropriate for answers. Even if he nodded and said that my grandmother's values ​​are highly consistent, all things are pretentious, and if he grasps the life gate, he can use them as a toy. Wu Zetian really wants to ask you, you think so too? He was stunned at the time.

So this kind of chat is really tiring, and Li Tong just talks less and listens more. While Wu Zetian is in a happy mood and is not on guard, he can take advantage of his grandmother's true mood so that he can respond more accurately in the future.

Although the Emperor of God urgently ordered it, it was still more than an hour after going to and from Weiguo Temple to cross the entire capital of Shendu.

The monks of Wei Kingdom Temple entered the hall and brought the Sanskrit version of the Treasure Rain Sutra collected in the temple. Wu Zetian showed the rubbings and ordered them to read the Buddhist scriptures immediately. Sure enough, in the first volume of the scriptures, they found that the meanings of the characters matched the shapes and meanings of the characters. The monks translated the Sanskrits of the relevant chapters in the hall, and the content was indeed similar to those on the rubbings.

This is also natural. Even if Li Tong doesn’t understand Buddhist principles, he will certainly not make mistakes in such subsections if he wants to do such things. The content of the sutra he made was originally operated in accordance with this Buddhist scripture.

As for what the content of the related scriptures of the Sanskrit version of the Baoyu Sutra means when translated, it doesn’t matter. If it cannot be translated into content that suits your wishes, what is the use of the country to support you monks?

It has to be said here that the so-called compilation of Buddhist scriptures is a process of addition, deletion and tampering. The eastern spread of Buddhism has continued to develop and grow since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, especially in the chaotic times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, where there are deeds of emperors coming to Buddhism, regardless of the north and south.

From another perspective, this is because the Han Dynasty’s classics have been passed down to this stage, and there is little room for further development, and the right to interpret the meaning of the classics has basically formed a monopoly. To a certain extent, the so-called aristocratic family is a scholar.

As a saying, Buddhism was first promoted by the Hu regime monarch and accumulated a considerable mass base. In the subsequent rise and fall of the royal industry, many emperors keenly discovered that the use of monks could effectively avoid many ideological restrictions, and naturally, it was inevitable to use them to varying degrees.

To put it simply, this kind of trade-offs is to open up a new battlefield, introduce traditional intellectuals and elites into it and defeat you. A group of masters who practice boxing and kick the Beihai, but they will knock you down with one shot.

Now Li Tong not only pointed out the source of the scriptures, but also provided a brief translation version. These monks who were willing to write political speculative things like "The Great Cloud Sutra" are all things that are lacking in morality. Even if the scriptures do not have such content, they have to make them out! This is the benefit of the right to explain in their own hands.

"Since this Mahayana Buddha's words are said, why don't you and other monks come in early?"

When Wu Zetian saw the evidence of the stall, he was happy for a moment and then furious again. He slapped the table and pointed the monks of Wei Temple, his expression was full of bad intentions.

It should be noted that the direction of the "Buddha's Talk of the Treasure Rain Sutra" is much clearer than the "Great Cloud Sutra". The Great Cloud Sutra is just a few sentences in the commentary, Wu Zetian was the goddess of Jingguang, and was the king of Yanbuti. However, the scripture itself does not have such detailed records. It can be said that it is unverified in the sutra and is far-fetched.

However, the scriptures of the Buddha's Talk about the Treasure Rain Sutra itself clearly state that this beautiful woman, the goddess of Jingguang, will transform into the northeast of Maha in Nanzhanbu Prefecture, and become the emperor for five hundred years after the Buddha's Nirvana.

After hearing this, monks such as Faming were also very moved and cried, because the Buddhist scriptures hidden in Weiguo Temple were full of Buddhist scriptures. Even the most knowledgeable monks dared not say that they would read all the scriptures and memorize them in their hearts. Moreover, the Baoyu Sutra itself is not a large number of scriptures. Before today, most of them had not even heard of this scripture.

Seeing that these monks were speechless, they were sweating from their heads, Li Tong was also secretly happy. He had long seen these monks not like him, and the price was too dark, and he would have to start a fight with tens of thousands of yuan. He just wanted to find this Baoyu Sutra from those Buddhist scriptures, and he went back and forth several times, and sent more than 100,000 yuan in.

However, it is not the time to take the opportunity to attack these monks. After all, his skills are still too rough, so he needs to continue to improve these monks. And more importantly, he wants to use this matter to completely kill Qiu Shenji.

So he stepped forward and said, "The negligence in this is not the responsibility of all the monks. I have recently traveled to and from Weiguo Temple to read the scriptures. I have seen many scriptures that only have names but are lost in the volume. Therefore, I asked the knowledgeable people in the temple and found out that the temple affairs were difficult. Weiguo Temple is a famous temple in the country, a monk's secluded place, and the wealth of Dharma treasures is even more abundant in Xijing Dacien Temple. There are many capitals and governments who borrow scriptures but have not returned them for a long time, and they dare not come to ask for questions rashly, so they have accumulated this disadvantage. I am moved by this and have dared to write a letter to talk about the matter a few days ago..."

After hearing Li Tong say this, Wu Zetian immediately linked the past. After all, this grandson was cautious in his opinion and did not write many times. She had read the memorials in recent times before, so she naturally had an impression of this.

"This "Baoyu Sutra" is just within the return sequence. I can only follow this sutra if I search for the scroll and select the meaning. Otherwise, even if I accidentally get the sutra, I will be afraid that it will be difficult to prove the lonely traces, and I will not dare to take the initiative to seek favor with doubts."

Wu Zetian first praised the King of Hedong for being cautious and thorough, and then he scolded a few words of carelessness in doing things. The Buddhist scriptures that are beneficial to the country and the country were borrowed and returned for a long time. Then he asked again: "Which one of them borrows the scriptures and does not return them? Quickly excerpt it! The great master Dharmazang is to save all sentient beings and collect private rooms. He will not be spared easily!"

Finally, Li Tong stopped hiding his purpose, so he bowed and said, "The masters are busy compiling the great scriptures, and they are afraid that they do not know such trivial matters in the temple. I have been doing this for a long time and have been working outside the sutra hall to return to the sutras. I searched every day and found a little impression. On the day I received the sutra, two families returned the sutras. I sent my son in the temple. The good man Qiu Sicheng believed in a daughter..."

"Is it these two? Only these two?"

Wu Zetian lowered his eyes and looked at his grandson kneeling in front of him. Li Tong felt his gaze and raised his head, trying to be calm and his eyes wandered slightly.

After a moment of silence, Wu Zetian smiled: "It's great. My good grandson can pick up the missing pieces, but it's not inferior to the Chaoying River. I can be lucky enough to pick up the Dharma. You can tell that there are such a thing as two in the court. Who doesn't say it's happy? The name of the righteousness is not enough. Today I will give you my true name, and it shows that you are elegant in the world."

Li Tong openly bargained with his grandmother, and felt nervous, but when he heard that his grandmother wanted to change his name, he was relieved first, and then he grabbed it. So is his new name Li Menyi or Li Ermei?

Fortunately, Wu Zetian did not make his grandson nervous for too long. He immediately wrote a letter to Li Tong and wrote a handwritten order: "Hurry up and enter Luantai and use the order immediately!"

Li Tong, who had just been changed to Li Baoyu, had not had time to complain about his new name. When he lowered his eyes, his face suddenly changed. He kowtowed heavily and choked on the ground and said, "I thank Your Majesty for your carelessness. The Emperor's ancestors benevolence me, my brothers, my brothers, I am very brave. It's difficult, difficult..."

"Ha, I've been saying this for a long time, and I've been calling my ancestors. My grandson should have such a style. The story has been quiet and hard to say. The emperor's grandson is close to his ancestors, how could my grandmother not love me Baoyu's good grandson? Let's go, I won't leave you with regrets."

Wu Zetian waved his hand and looked amiable. Even though Li Tong knew what this grandmother was, he couldn't help but feel a little grateful now.

The content of the imperial edict was very simple. It was to order the prince’s left-back general Li Guangshun to immediately arrest Qiu Sicheng, a criminal who had hidden the Buddhist scriptures. He dared to resist arrest and killed him on the spot!

The most difficult thing for people to face is their own embarrassment. Li Tong had many ideas, but he still didn't expect his grandmother to do this, so that their brothers could have the opportunity to end this grudge with their own hands.

Of course, this was also exchanged for Li Tong himself. He presented the Baoyu Sutra, and no matter how he did he do, he would not be able to distinguish the revolution from his grandmother afterwards. It can be said that he was betting on his life. If Wu Zetian failed, he would be successful.

Such an imperial edict should be Wu Zetian giving himself a step. If their brothers accept it, then they will wipe out the haze of Chen Jiu in their hearts. If they don’t accept it... the fool will not accept it!
