Chapter seven hundred and eighteenth return to secular strategy

Tang Xuanzang remained silent.

Li Junxian continued: "A good bird chooses trees to live in. You are a holy monk, you are a holy monk brought out by Buddhism. Now that the incident is happening, you will be the first to be affected. Do you know what the consequences will be?"

Tang Xuanzang recited the Buddha's name devoutly, "I became a monk since I was a child, and it was the Buddhist sect that raised me. Even if the Buddhist children made mistakes for a while, I would not return to secular life."

Li Junxian said a little disdainfully: "What a stubborn monk."

Tang Xuanzang still bowed and was about to leave and was stopped by the people behind Li Junxian.

Stopped, Tang Xuanzang looked at Li Junxian, "What does General mean?"

Li Junxian said again: "Give you two choices. After returning to secular life, you can get an official position in the court and will be sent to the Western Regions to govern the Western Regions. The second choice is to continue to be your monk. Your Majesty has stopped many memorials to arrest you. When Your Majesty can't stop you, your fate will not be very good."

Tang Xuanzang said: "I have never been involved in their affairs."

Li Junxian said again: "It's hard to say whether you are innocent or not. Now that the court is in the process of investigation, I don't know how it is, but I can tell you that if there is a monk who has also participated, do you think you can clean yourself?"

Tang Xuanzang was silent.

Just as he was about to leave with his subordinates, Li Junxian stopped and said, "If you figure it out and come to the Sifang Pavilion in Chang'an, this choice will be useful as long as you are not dead, and you can come at any time."

Tang Xuanzang recited the Buddha's name again.

"Stubborn, pedantic, and stubborn. I would rather be a monk than serve the country!" Li Junxian cursed while walking.

Tang Xuanzang looked not far away, and Jingyang should be not far away.

Many trees were planted west of Jingyang, and some were still seedlings.

Some people can't understand why Li Zheng planted so many trees in such a deserted place where food was not available.

Tang Xuanzang asked some of the children who planted trees here, and heard that these children said they had been planting trees here for several years.

I also heard these children say that they would plant trees in Longyou.

Tang Xuanzang was extremely disappointed with the current Central Plains Buddhism.

I walked towards Jingyang Village step by step. As soon as I reached the entrance of the village, I was stopped by the guards here.

Tang Xuanzang said to the guards here: "Please inform the Duke of Jingyang County that I am not a monk Tang Xuanzang came to see you."

The guard glanced at Tang Xuanzang and went to report.

Li Zheng, Li Zhi and Di Renjie were working on models of the plane.

The model of the aircraft is simple and difficult.

Li Zhi saw the wood aside and wanted to make the wood into pieces of model fragments that can be spliced.

The members of the guard team came to report: "Chang'an Order, that Tang Xuanzang wants to see you."

Li Zheng stopped the movements in his hand.

Li Zhi said: "Teacher is going to work hard first, we can do the next two."

Follow the guard team members to leave the house and walk all the way to the entrance of Jingyang's village.

After walking through the escort camp, I arrived outside the village.

Li Zheng saw Tang Xuanzang standing not far away.

"Why did Master Xuanzang come alone today? What about the monks who are following you?"

Tang Xuanzang bowed and said, "I have seen Chang'an Order. I believe everyone in the Chang'an Order knows about Buddhism recently, so why bother asking this more."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "I don't leave my home and I'm not very clear about the outside world."

Tang Xuanzang chanted the Buddha's name, "Li Zheng, I know that Buddhism has always had prejudice against you, so I would like to give Buddhism a way to live."

"Master Xuanzang, what you said is wrong. What does it mean to give Buddhism a way out? How can I have such great ability?"

"If it weren't for you, how could Buddhism be like this?"

Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand impatiently and said, "Master Xuanzang, what do you mean is not this? The first thing that makes the mistake is Buddhism, not me. Our Jingyang Magazine is just written according to some rumors. As for whether it is true, how do I know?"

Tang Xuanzang stared at Li Zheng's expression.

Li Zheng continued, "Why do you say that I am harming you because of your mistake? If there weren't so many dirty deals in your Buddhism behind your back, why are you guilty? Master Xuanzang, why are you guilty?"

"I...

Tang Xuanzang could not think of refuting Li Zheng's words for a moment.

Li Zheng said again: "If Master Xuanzang thinks I am a bad person, then let me be a bad person. I don't care much about your thoughts."

Tang Xuanzang whispered: "I really don't matter to you."

Li Zheng took a stool handed over by the guard team, sat down in front of Tang Xuanzang and said, "Master Xuanzang, do you know? In fact, there are many groups in the world, and each group has its own common cognition."

"Just like you monks, your common cognition wants to focus on Buddha and abandon idealism. Anyone who wants to enter your group must have the same cognition as you." Seeing that Tang Xuanzong's expression was a little loose, Li Zheng continued: "Just like you, Tang Xuanzang, you really just want to enter the monk? Are you really free from desires and no desires? The so-called Buddhist children are just you, Tang Xuanzang, to make them recognize you, and Tang Xuanzang, to gain the recognition of others, lived to live in the eyes of others."

"Tang Xuanzang, do you still think you are a person without desires? Do you still think Buddhism, how noble you are?"

After saying that, Li Zheng looked at Tang Xuanzang who was still silent and said, "You are not empty in all four elements, you are even selfish."

Tang Xuanzang's heart was shaken for a long time, and looked up at Li Zheng and whispered: "Li Zheng, I don't know who else can I ask for now. Can you give Buddhism a way out? Can you give Buddhism another chance? Everyone has times to make mistakes."

Looking at Tang Xuanzang begging for mercy, Li Zheng said, "It has never been me who can live in Buddhism, but the common people in the world."

"common people……"

Tang Xuanzang took two steps back in a daze.

After taking a few more glances at Tang Xuanzang, Li Zheng said, "I will give it to you."

After hearing Li Zheng's words, Tang Xuanzang looked up again and Li Zheng had already walked back to the village.

"What people worship is just their inner desires. You are just to make Buddhism recognize you. You are desperately living as they recognize you. Are you noble?"

Thinking of these words, Tang Xuanzang sat down weakly against a tree.

Seeing that Li Zheng was back, Wang Ding walked up and said, "Chang'an Order, this time, a total of 35,000 monks were arrested in the court. What should we do?"
