    Chapter 170 Am I a Buddhist?

    Luo Weiran always felt that the emperor was a little unusual today because the emperor was actually in a daze.  After chatting with Su Buwei for a few words, the emperor asked him to find Luo Weiran.  After that, the emperor looked at the lotus pond and fell into silence again.  This was a rare scene to see, so Luo Weiran couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the emperor.

    When he was far away, he leaned down to salute and called "Your Majesty."

    The emperor came back from his daze, glanced at Luo Weiran and then raised his finger to point to the stone bench not far away: "Sit down and talk."

    Luo Weiran did not refuse, walked to the stone bench and sat down, leaning forward.  It is very impolite to sit still in front of the emperor.  If the emperor asks you to sit down, just sit down. But if you are sitting down firmly like you are chatting with friends, and someone sees you, you will immediately become disrespectful.

    Su Buwei still stood behind the emperor, maintaining a distance of about one and a half steps.

    When Luo Weiran came, Su Buwei had already told him that His Majesty would investigate the cause of Wu Peisheng's death, so Luo Weiran was prepared.  But the things he prepared were obviously useless. His Majesty's first question was: "How is Fang Jie doing in prison?"

    Luo Weiran quickly replied: "Yesterday he annoyed Her Royal Highness the Princess and also angered Hou Wenji."

    "Wanting mentioned this to me, and Hou Wenji also told me yesterday that Fang Jie's words were disrespectful to me and made Wanting angry Didn't he live too much in the prison of your palace guard?  Feeling better? I heard that you gave him whatever he wanted, even if he wanted to write poems, he even gave him the Four Treasures of the Study. How could he be in jail?"

    Although the emperor's tone was a bit harsh, Luo Weiran knew that his majesty was not really angry.  He has been with the emperor for eleven years, and his understanding of the emperor is far deeper than that of ordinary courtiers.  He knew that Her Majesty the Princess was nauseated and vomited by Fang Jie, and he also knew that Her Majesty was not human.  There was no need for Hou Wenji to hide such a trivial matter from him. Of course, there was nothing that could be hidden from him in the Ouchi Guards Office.

    "You really deserve to be punished."

    Luo Weiran lowered his head and said: "But no additional punishment, no forced confession, no embarrassment this is your Majesty's will."

    "Yeah?"

    The emperor was startled for a moment, and then said angrily: "Then we can't just let him do whatever he wants. I'll starve him for two days to see if he still has the energy to be clever or lose his temper!"

    "I obey the decree"

    "but¡­¡­"

    The emperor changed his tone and sighed slightly: "His behavior makes me feel that he has no evil intentions. You stare at him every day, and Hou Wenji also stares at him every day. Both of your eyes are poisonous enough."  , you all say that he looks a little self-defeating, a little angry, a little pretending to be crazy and the things he pretends are always a little artificial. "

    He paused and continued: "I met Du Hongxian a few days ago. She also said that Fang Jie is the descendant of Lao Qi. I think this matter can't be wrong What needs to be determined now is whether Fang Jie is the same as Buddha.  Is there any connection with the sect? We must check it carefully, and we must not act half-heartedly. The example I hold up personally cannot be used as evidence for others to accuse me of being an idiot in the future. If he really has any connection with the sect, then I am an idiot.  A complete joke!"

    "Of courseif he has nothing to do with the Buddha Sect, just return everything I gave him before. He is still a rare genius in the Sui Dynasty for a hundred years, and he is still the number one in the Yanwu Academy."

    "I understand."

    Luo Weiran nodded and said: "But I am the junior brother of Prince Zhong, so I will leave this matter to you I am afraid that it is unfair, so why don't I withdraw and leave everything to Hou Wenji. He is better at investigating the case than I am.  some."

    "Hou Wenji has other matters, so just keep an eye on Fang Jie's matter."

    The emperor waved his hand and asked after being silent for a while: "Tell me again what happened before and after Lao Qi found you."

    "yes"

    Luo Weiran said: "At that time, I was still practicing with my master in the mountains, and Prince Zhong was my second senior brother. But none of us knew his identity at that time, and no one thought that the second senior brother was actually an important minister of Tianhuang Guizhou Kingdom.  The second senior brother is often away from the mountains, but his cultivation is the most admirable among our brothers. He is a true genius, and he can learn more in one day of practice than I did in one year."

    "I remember that I was practicing ten-step slashing at that time. Prince Zhong returned to the sect and found me alone. He asked me not to ask anything, and immediately packed up my things and set off for Chang'an City. He asked me to enter the palace to see His Majesty, and he gave me  I asked you to hand over a handwritten letter to Your Majesty. Our senior brothers admire the second senior brother very much, so even though I didn¡¯t know what he was going to do, I immediately left the sect and rushed to Chang¡¯an, and I haven¡¯t left since.  Pass."

     The emperor hummed, pondered for a while and asked: "It was the late emperor's arrangement for Lao Qi to go to the mountain to practice. I didn't know it at the beginning. You four brothers are all my good helpers. Master Xiao is already the leader of the Taoist sect.  , to command the world for me. You have worked in the Imperial Guard for eleven years, and even Xiang Qingniu When Master Xiao grows old, he will naturally be the only one to take over."

    "Zhenren Xiao has four disciples, but they will never leave the Taoist sect. You have no descendants, and Qing Niu does not have any descendants. If Fang Jie is the descendant of Lao Qi, then he is the only disciple among the descendants of your four senior brothers who has entered the world. I  I never thought about killing him directly to avoid future troubles, but I wanted to clear his name.¡±

    "I understand your Majesty's hard work."

    ¡°Let¡¯s find out how Wu Peisheng died.¡±

    The emperor's turn was so sudden that Luo Weiran couldn't keep up with his train of thought.

    "ah?"

    Luo Weiran made a sound, then nodded and said: "I obey the order."

    "Su Buwei said that before Wu accompanied Sheng on his journey to the west, he would most likely never come back. Although he made many mistakes, he was responsible for me and worked conscientiously and meticulously. Maybe he found something shady in the northwest.  You will die a violent death if you do something dirty Don't investigate this matter in a big way, and don't mention it to anyone. Send your own cronies to the northwest to investigate secretly, and don't disclose it to anyone in the government or military, do you understand?"

    "I understand!"

    "I don't want to make the northwest quiet at this time, but I can't allow others to deceive me!"

    "Here!"

    "Also let Qiu Yu go to the prison to check on Fang Jie from time to time. His practice cannot be abandoned."

    "Thenare you going to starve him for two days?"

    Luo Weiran asked tentatively.

    The emperor stood up, puffed out his chest slightly and said, "You have no joke!"

    "I am merciful if I don't silence my daughter who bullies me. Just starve her for two days. If things get worse starve her for three or five days, as long as she doesn't starve to death!"

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    The door creaked and someone opened it from the outside. Fang Jie, who was lying on the stone bed, didn't even bother to look back.  He lay facing the wall, his back to the door, motionless.

    The person who walked in the door was Zhuo Buyi. He couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Fang Jie's appearance.

    Sitting down on the chair, Zhuo Buyi was silent for a long time without speaking.  He looked at Fang Jie's back, with a strong look of apology in his eyes.

    "You are not a person who is used to turning your back to others."

    After a while, Zhuo Buyi looked at Fang Jie and said.

    Lying on the stone bed, Fang Jie's shoulders trembled slightly, and his low-pitched sneer clearly reached Zhuo Buyi's ears.  Zhuo Buyi knew that Fang Jie was angry, but he didn't know how to continue the conversation.  What happened that day on Banyue Mountain can be imagined as a huge blow to Fang Jie.

    "In your opinion, is human life worth less than a dog's life?"

    Fang Jie turned over and sat up, looking directly into Zhuo Buyi¡¯s eyes and asked.

    Zhuo Buyi knew what Fang Jie was referring to. Several students from the Yanwu Academy died on Banyue Mountain that day.  They were all innocent people, and their death there was truly unexpected.

    "No plan is perfect, and there is no need to worry about dead people. They died innocently, no one can deny this. But if it weren't for them, you wouldn't be able to kill Chenya. Neither would we.  Wisdom was seriously injured, so in the final analysis, they have made meritorious service to the Sui Dynasty. If they die for the Sui Dynasty, it is not considered unjust."

    "What kind of bullshit theory is this?!"

    Fang Jie glared at Zhuo Buyi and said angrily.

    "Every Sui person has the consciousness to sacrifice for the Sui Dynasty at all times. You don't have to question this, including yourself You don't have to deny that if you were not such a person, you would not have blocked Chenya in front of others that day.  ¡±

    "I'm not that great."

    Fang Jie said coldly: "I have a personal enmity with that bald donkey. He wanted to kill me and hurt the big dog. Even without those classmates, I would still stand up."

    "Would I believe it?"

    Zhuo Buyi shook his head and said, "Most likely you will turn around and run away."

    "I-fuck-your uncle!"

    Fang Jie said angrily: "If you came here just to say this, then you can get out. If I could leave, I would never listen to you chirping here!"

    Zhuo Buyi said seriously: "If you scold me again, I will beat you."

    Fang Jie was startled and simply turned his head and ignored him.  After a while, Fang Jie breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Thank you."

    "Thank you for what?"

    Zhuo Buyi?.

    "Others don't know, but I know it very well."

    Fang Jie said with some emotion: "Those people thought that I killed Chen Ya, and thought that I was really that good at fighting. If you hadn't used the painting to hold Chen Ya in place for a moment at the most critical moment, how could I possibly have killed him?  ?¡±

    Zhuo Buyi shook his head: "You are betting, so you don't need to thank me. It's just that you made the right bet. You know that I will never watch you die. You have been plotting against me since you rushed over."

    Fang Jie did not deny it.

    ¡°There¡¯s something I can¡¯t figure out.¡±

    Fang Jie asked: "That idiot named Zhizhi, why didn't he kill me even though he could kill me and he had two chances?"

    Zhuo Buyi thought for a while and then replied: "If you figured this out, you would be sitting in the room of the Yanwu Academy listening to the professor's lecture."

    "I see."

    Fang Jie sighed: "I have always been unsure why I was arrested, but now I know that the original crime was because I was lucky not to die in the hands of that old monk. In this way, if I had died that day, I should be lying on a bed now  In the huge mausoleum, there are still people offering flowers to me outside. From time to time, someone will burn a handful of paper money and pour a glass of wine for me. Then my name will be mentioned for many years, and every time I mention it, I will sigh.  A once-in-a-century genius died in vain at the hands of the Buddha. People will hate the Buddha even more because of my death. If you think about it I really deserve to die."

    "It seemsthat's the case."

    Zhuo Buyi nodded.

    ¡°However, it¡¯s not just because of this.¡±

    Zhuo Buyi said: "Do you know about Buddhism?"

    "I don't understand."

    "There is a very special kind of people in the Buddhist sect, called Buddha disciples. They are the successors carefully selected by Maharaja Mingyo. Before Maharaja Mingyo is about to take his throne, one of them will be designated as the new Maharaja Mingyo.  The biggest characteristic of these Buddhist disciples isthe indestructible body. I don't know how the Buddha achieves this, but many people knowthat your physique is somewhat special."

    Fang Jie was startled, and his mind suddenly lit up.  Many things that I couldn't understand before gradually became clear after hearing these words.  At this moment, he was even doubting himself Am I really a Buddhist?
