Today's Qunv City is full of people coming and going.
Has been restored to prosperity.
As Du Qi's second stronghold, Qunv City, after the abolition of the caste system, countless people gathered here. Countless people came to live here, making Qunv City even more prosperous.
Xuanzang stood on the street, watching the scene of coming and going, suddenly hesitated.
The reason is simple, Qunv City has become more prosperous. When Xuanzang arrived at Qunv City, he had seen everything in Qunv City. The former Qunv City was also prosperous, but compared to today, it is nothing compared to the big witch, and there is no comparison at all.
The most important thing is that the spirit of the people in Qunu City is different now. The former Qunu City seemed lifeless, filled with countless Brahmins and Kshatriya races, suppressing the most ordinary people, making it impossible for the people at the bottom to stand up, and even countless people suffered from it.
On the faces of many ordinary people, there is a look of bitterness and hatred, a look of misery.
But now, when Xuanzang looked at the people walking in the city, the faces of the people were filled with joy and hope for life. Because in today's Qunu city, there is no oppression, no caste system.
Ordinary poor people used to be cautious when walking on the streets, for fear of bumping into some nobles. But now, there are no nobles, and they all make their own decisions.
At this moment, Xuanzang seemed to see the Tang Dynasty.
In the Tang Dynasty, the common people were like this.
Xuanzang even had a slight hesitation in his heart. Because everything he sees now is better developed, brighter, more lively and fresher. On the contrary, there is no such scene in the Nalanda Temple in Magadha.
Do you really want to persuade?
Xuanzang thought so in his heart.
Because if Du Qi is allowed to rule the entire Tianzhu, then the people of Tianzhu will have a better life. If he doesn't go, he will live up to the expectations of Master Jiexian and others.
After Xuanzang arrived at Nalanda Temple, he received help from countless people. In particular, Master Jiexian helped him even more, enabling him to absorb more knowledge about Buddhism in a short period of time, making his Buddhism more and more perfect, without any flaws. At this point, Xuanzang owed too many favors.
"well¡¡"
Xuanzang couldn't help sighing.
After sighing, Xuanzang still had to see Du Qi.
He can't go against what he promised Master Jiexian, no matter what the success or failure, he has to persuade him.
Xuanzang, dressed in a simple monk's cloth, went straight to the palace. When he came outside the palace gate, he looked at the soldiers standing guard, folded his hands together and said, "Please inform Your Majesty that Xuanzang, a monk of the Tang Dynasty, is seeking to see you."
When the soldiers heard that they were monks from the Tang Dynasty, they perked up and rushed into the palace to report.
When Du Qi got the news, he was very surprised.
Xuanzang actually came.
Du Qi knew that Xuanzang was in Tianzhu, and he should have studied in Nalanda Temple. Unexpectedly, Xuanzang was not in Nalanda Temple, but came to ask for an audience. He thought about it in his heart, and after a while, he roughly came to an inference, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Du Qi ordered: "Tell Xuanzang to see you."
The soldiers went to pass the order, and after a short time, Xuanzang entered.
Du Qi's eyes fell on Xuanzang, and when he saw Xuanzang's appearance, he was amazed in his heart. In terms of appearance alone, Xuanzang is as gentle and moist as jade, and gives people a feeling of spring breeze. Standing in the crowd, such a person has the effect of a spotlight. Countless people will admire Xuanzang when they see him, what a great Tang monk.
Even Du Qi couldn't help admiring.
Xuanzang stood still and said: "Xuanzang, a monk of the Tang Dynasty, see His Majesty the Emperor."
Du Qidao: "Masters don't need to be polite."
"Give me a seat!"
Du Qi gave an order.
After Xuanzang was seated, Du Qi said with a smile: "Speaking of which, when I was in the Tang Dynasty, I heard the reputation of the master. The master is dedicated to seeking the Buddha, sincere in Buddhism, and his ambition is admirable."
Xuanzang said: "Your Majesty's praise."
Xuanzang at this time was also full of admiration in his heart. Because Du Qi in front of him, although he has grown a beard, Du Qi's appearance is too young, but Du Qi is sitting on top, and he is extremely stable, giving people an extremely majestic feeling.
At such an age, with such a foundation. Even compared to the Great Tang Emperor, Du Qi is not far behind, and even Du Qi's life experience is even more legendary. Because Du Qi created a huge foundation in a short period of time, and even the Jieri Kingdom, which dominates the north of Tianzhu, was broken by Du Qi.The Japanese kings all died in the hands of Du Qi, which shows how powerful Du Qi is.
Xuanzang withdrew his thoughts, he smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, speaking of my going north this time, I was dragged by others. I really couldn't push it, so I went north to see Your Majesty."
Du Qidao: "Master is entrusted by others, who is entrusted by?"
Xuanzang said: "It was entrusted by Master Jiexian."
Du Qi raised his brows. He knew Jiexian, and Jiexian was very famous in the history of Tianzhu. Not only because of Master Jiexian's profound Buddhist teachings, he can be called a master of a generation, but also because Master Jiexian lived a long life, more than a hundred years old. This is extremely rare in the history of Tianzhu. In particular, Jiexian himself was born as a Brahmin, and his influence was even greater.
Du Qi said: "What did Jiexian ask you to do?"
Xuanzang said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Master Jiexian asked me to come because he hoped that His Majesty would stop at Qunv City and stop going south. Of course, the countries in the Southern Jieri Kingdom are also willing to pay the price."
Du Qidao: "What price?"
Xuanzang said: "The price is that the countries in the south of Jieri Kingdom, including Magadha, are willing to submit to Xia Kingdom and become Xia Kingdom's affiliated countries. Not only that, they are willing to pay taxes every year. In addition On the one hand, the southernmost Chaluqi Dynasty is ready to fight. If Your Majesty disagrees, the countries in the south of Jieri Kingdom will unite with the Chaluqi Dynasty to fight against Your Majesty."
He didn't go around in circles, he directly talked about the conditions and the preparations of various countries.
Xuanzang was sent as an envoy only because Master Jiexian was kind to him, and Nalanda Temple was helpful to him. That's why Xuanzang was willing to go north. Apart from whether Du Qi agreed, Xuanzang had no intention of persuading him, and he didn't want to get involved in these matters.
Du Qi shook his head and said: "I'm afraid I will disappoint the mage. My army will not stop at Qunv City. My army will definitely go south to sweep up the southern countries of Japan. Including the southernmost Chalouqi Dynasty, it will also Taken by me."
Xuanzang said: "Since Your Majesty refuses, let the matter be as it is. After all, I was only persuading Your Majesty. Now that Your Majesty refuses, I will not say more. I hope Your Majesty will treat the people well."
Du Qidao: "Master is a sensible person."
He originally thought that Xuanzang might try to persuade him, and might force him to give up attacking the southern part of Jieri Kingdom. But now, when Xuanzang stopped, Du Qi was completely at ease.
Du Qi changed the subject and said: "Master Xuanzang, my father has arrived in Xia Kingdom and is now living in Gaochang. If you have time, you can go to Gaochang, and my father is waiting for you."
Xuanzang showed a gentle smile on his face, and said, "I will go there when I have free time."
He has great admiration for Du Ruhui.
At the beginning, he submitted a form to the emperor, hoping to travel west to Tianzhu, and hoped that Li Shimin would allow it. However, Li Shimin directly refused. Later, Xuanzang found Du Ruhui, hoping that Du Ruhui could say something nice for him, and asked Du Ruhui to intercede for him. Without further ado, Du Ruhui agreed directly, and then had an audience with the emperor, but failed in the end.
No matter what, Xuanzang still remembered Du Ruhui's love. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
