Chapter 4487

Yuan Shouren looked at Xuanzang and then assessed Xuanzang.

After the assessment, Yuan Shouren was a little surprised. This Xuanzang had good abilities and was more powerful than other monks, but this Xuanzang seemed unable to save those wronged souls.

"Taoist Priest, in the Tang Dynasty, it is very difficult for one person to save the souls of wronged people. To save these wronged souls, all the monks must join hands and mobilize together to be able to do it." Xuan Zang looked at Yuan Shouren and said.

This was the first time Yuan Shouren heard this method, which made him a little curious.

"Please tell me carefully and listen."

Xuanzang told Yuan Shouren the specific method.

After hearing this, Yuan Shouren was surprised and happy at the same time.

"Little master, your method sounds very good. I can consider it, but I can't make the decision alone. I need to ask Prime Minister Wei Zheng for instructions." Yuan Shouren said with a smile.

"good."

In the evening, Yuan Shouren found Xuanzang and said that he had agreed to this matter.

"Let the poor monk look for the monk's matter. After all, this coward must devote himself to Buddha. Some monks are not suitable for this matter." Xuanzang said to Yuan Shouren.

Yuan Shouren naturally agreed.

In just two or three days, Xuanzang found hundreds of monks, all of whom he selected himself.

Then Xuanzang began.

This does not require confirmation, because Yuan Shouren has already performed divination, Xuanzang's method is acceptable, and the monks he selected are also very good.

Wei Zheng and Yuan Shouren came to the Land and Water Conference together to watch the monks perform salvation.

Xuanzang had already had detailed conversations with these monks, and everyone knew the specific method.

Under the leadership of Xuanzang, they worked together to carry out this matter.

It will take 7749 days for the Land and Water Conference to be held, and everyone is waiting here quietly.

Yuan Shouren was also doing divination every day, which made him feel better and better, because he found that many wronged souls had been saved. Although the number was small, the effect was already there, which was already a good thing.

Yuan Shouren told Wei Zheng about this, and Wei Zheng was very happy after hearing it.

Wei Zheng entered the palace with the good news and told Li Shimin about it.

"Very good! The Water and Land Conference was very well done. Prime Minister Wei Zheng, I wonder who the monk you selected is from and which temple he came from? I must praise him well." Li Shimin asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, this Water and Land Conference is not hosted by one monk, but by thousands of monks." Wei Zheng said with a smile.

Xuanzang found a total of thousands of monks to perform salvation this time. After all, it would be difficult to achieve it if there were few people.

After Li Shimin heard this, he was also surprised: "There are so many monks. Doesn't it mean that only a few monks are enough?"

Wei Zheng smiled and explained the matter, "So we have to find many monks. After all, it is not easy for us to achieve salvation here."

After listening to this, Li Shimin suddenly realized that this was the case.

"Who came up with this method?"

"The candidate who came up with this method is also the leading monk of this water and land conference. He is a young monk named Xuanzang, who is the abbot of Jinshan Temple near Chang'an City." Wei Zheng said with a smile.

Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the name, and then his face showed joy, "Is it Xuanzang from Jinshan Temple?"

"It is Master Xuanzang."

Li Shimin stood up and laughed. He really didn't expect that the leading monk presiding over the Land and Water Conference this time was his good brother Xuanzang.

"If I had known that Xuanzang could do it, why would I have worked so hard to gather so many monks? I would just leave this matter to Xuanzang." Li Shimin said with a smile.

It is indeed a method. If he had handed over the matter to Xuanzang earlier, Xuanzang would definitely look for monks everywhere, and he could also conduct the Land and Water Conference some time in advance.

"I will go to the Land and Water Conference myself to see this matter." Li Shimin said with a smile.

He was in a good mood because the water and land conference could go smoothly this time. Now that he heard that the leader of the water and land conference was his good brother, Li Shimin had to go there.

Wei Zheng followed Li Shimin to the Water and Land Conference in Chang'an City. There were many people here, not only many monks but also ordinary people.

When everyone saw the emperor coming, they all came to salute him one after another.

Li Shimin looked at Xuanzang with a smile in his eyes.

"Xuan Zang, this time the Land and Water Conference can be carried out normally, you have made great contributions, and I must reward you heavily." Li Shimin said to Xuanzang with a smile.

"Your Majesty, you're welcome. The poor monk did this according to the method my master told me, and it is also the result of the joint efforts of all of us monks. It is not the credit of the poor monk alone." Xuanzang said, this is not because he is being modest, because this is the fact. .

Li Shimin smiled and nodded, saying: "No matter what, you should always be remembered as the first meritorious service. Without you, how could this happen?"

"Wei Zheng, granted Xuanzang the title of Zuo Seng Gang, Right Seng Gang, and the Great Exposition of the World." Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng again.

Wei Zheng naturally agreed. He also admired Xuanzang very much. Although Xuanzang was young, he was very capable and had very profound attainments in Buddhism.

"The rest of the monks must also be rewarded one by one. These are all heroes of our Tang Dynasty and must not be treated lightly." Li Shimin continued.

After everyone heard this, they were very happy. What they were happy about was not that Li Shimin rewarded them, but that Li Shimin valued them.

The monks regarded these rewards as nothing but clouds. What they valued was the court's attitude towards them.

Now the imperial court appreciates them very much, and they know that Buddhism will definitely flourish.

Yuan Shouren watched this situation from the sidelines. He was naturally happy for these monks, but he was also worried about Buddhism.

Nowadays, the Sanqing does not pay attention to the affairs of the human world, and there are many contradictions within the Taoist sect. The head of state has seen that the Taoist sect is gradually declining, and he is afraid that the Taoist sect will disappear from the world one day.

Although Samsung took advantage of him this time, we are still doing well overall, and he also likes our concept very much and does not want Daomen to decline.

"Your Majesty, this land and water conference can be held, and those wronged souls can be saved. This is not only the result of the efforts of our monks, but also the help of our friends in the Taoist sect, especially the great help given to us by Taoist priests such as Yuan Shouren. If Without their help, we would not be able to complete it so quickly, and we are likely to fail, so I would like to ask your Majesty to reward them." Xuanzang stood up and said to Li Shimin.

Yuan Shouren was thinking about this door when he suddenly heard what Xuanzang said, which made his heart shake. His eyes looking at Xuanzang were filled with tears.

Just now he was worried that Taoism would be suppressed by Buddhism and gradually decline in the Tang Dynasty.

But I didn't expect Xuanzang to stand up and speak for them. It was really touching.

"Okay, Yuan Shouren and others will also focus on rewards!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

Everyone was very happy.

Li Shimin chatted with everyone here for a while, and then chatted with Xuanzang alone before going back to the palace.

Yuan Shouren found Xuanzang, and he wanted to thank Xuanzang.
