Chapter 719 Wu Meiniang became a nun

No one of the Ouyang brothers can understand how nuns in the royal nuns love money, but they heard that this is a habit, so everyone stopped asking the bottom line.

Seeing that Wu Meiniang was helped into the mountain gate, Ouyang Li said, "This matter is of great importance. I have to go and investigate myself. You are waiting here, I will go back." As he said that, he tightened his belt, walked around the mountain gate, jumped into the temple wall, lurked onto the roof, and observed the development of the situation inside.

In the main hall, the lights are bright, and almost all the nuns in the temple are here. In fact, most of the nuns in Ganye Temple are not good people, but at this time, it was just in time for evening class, so many people are in the hall.

The nuns helped Wu Meiniang into the hall and asked her to sit on the cushion. Some nuns even brought her hot water and brought her a quilt. The nuns all surrounded Wu Meiniang and looked at her, but no one spoke.

The host, Old Ni, frowned, looked at the gold bars that were picked up, then looked at Wu Meiniang, chanted Amitabha, and then asked: "This female donor, who are you? Who are you? Who are you who you just sent you? Their accents are not like the people of the Central Plains."

Wu Meiniang took a sip of hot water, calmed her mind, and then she started to say it. What she said was all thought of on the road, and there were a few words that were guided by Wang Ping'an, but most of them were thought of by herself.

The story is very simple. She is the daughter of a wealthy businessman in the Central Plains. When she was in business with her father, she was snatched away by a small tribe in the Turks and became a princess for a little khan. But she was so powerful that she killed Xiao Han. The wizard in the tribe used a turtle shell to tell her that she could not be killed, but she had to become a monk and become a nun to starve her to death. Moreover, since she was from the Central Plains, the nun in the largest nun in the Central Plains had to starve her to death. In this way, the disaster she brought to this tribe was eliminated and the heirs of Xiao Han would not be killed.

As for which Turkic tribe it was, Wu Meiniang couldn't explain it clearly. She only said that she was locked in a tent all day long and did not know anyone, so she couldn't explain it clearly.

When the nuns heard this bizarre story, unexpectedly, at least beyond the expectations of Ouyang Li who was eavesdropping on the roof, there were more than half of the nuns who did not doubt the authenticity of the story, but instead exaggerated sympathy. Some nuns even had some expressions on their faces, as if they were imagining themselves as the heroine!

A Jiaojiao lady from the Central Plains was plundered by the majestic and heroic Turkic Khan and became a princess. The Khan was obedient to her. Just when Jiaojiao began to have a good impression of the young Khan, disaster came. The young and handsome Khan was unfortunately killed during the expedition.

The evil wizard has been secretly in love with Miss Jiaojiao and wants to occupy Miss Jiaojiao after King Khan's death, but Miss Jiaojiao would rather die than obey. So the evil wizard has turned into hatred from love and came up with a vicious way. He wanted to torture Miss Jiaojiao to death, but was stopped by a group of Khan's ministers, because those ministers also had a secret crush on Miss Jiaojiao. They stopped the wizard's vicious plan and sent Miss Jiaojiao back to the Central Plains. Fortunately, they were rescued by a group of nuns...

How great would it be if such a tortuous and bizarre story happened to me... Although the ending was a little bit bad, at most it would be a nun. Now everyone is in front of nuns, what's so great about it? No matter what, the Khan had loved me, the civil and military officials in the court had loved me, and the evil wizards had loved me, and that's enough!

It was difficult for Ouyang Li to understand that these nuns really didn't know what they were thinking, and they even sympathized with Wu Meiniang. The host, Old Ni, had tears in his eyes and said, "So that's it. I guess these gold bars were given to you by those Turkic ministers who were loyal to you. I'm afraid that we will really starve you to death?"

Wu Meiniang was stunned and thought to herself, "What kind of Turkic minister who is loyal to me, I have never said such words. Where did she think of it?" She nodded and said, "That's true. But the little woman is homeless, and it is useless to ask for these external things. She wants to present these gold bars to the temple. The little woman has nothing to ask for, but she just wants the host to be merciful, so she will accept the little girl. The little woman is willing to leave her hair as a nun and accompany the green lamp forever!"

The old nun presided over and recited the Buddha's name several times and said, "Good, good, the female donor has a pitiful life experience. She went from the Central Plains to the Turks, and then returned from the Turks to the Central Plains to come to my Ganye Temple. This is a destined person. If the Buddha has the destined relationship, he will accept you as a disciple in my temple. What can I do?"

The nuns said in unison: "Amitabha, my Buddha is merciful, so good!"

Ouyang Li in the room was stunned and almost fell from the roof. In his opinion, it should be difficult to accept Wu Meiniang. Even if the host said, as the host said, he would have to "invest" hypocritically. It would take two or three days before Wu Meiniang would accept her as a disciple after repeated begging. But unexpectedly, he told a story and accepted it like this!

Ouyang Li thought to himself: "If I can't make a living in the future and have no place to eat, why not go to the monk temple and tell the host inside that I was kidnapped by a Turkic female khan and became a husband of the slander, and ended up defeating my wife..."

After peeking for a while, he didn't leave until the nuns arranged Wu Meiniang into the Zen room. He met with his brothers. When he said what happened just now, the brothers were all surprised and felt that the woman's heart was hard to figure out, and the nun's heart could not be described as the underwater needle. He could not even think about it, let alone whether it was difficult to figure out!

Ouyang Li left two brothers to stay here and observe the situation at any time. He and the rest of the people found a nearby inn. They had to wait for Wu Meiniang to officially become a monk and settle Shi Aiguo before they could return to Qingzhou.

The next morning, Ouyang Li went to the East Palace to ask for Shi Aiguo. Shi Aiguo met him in person. As soon as the two met, they beat their chests and stamped their feet together, saying why the woman was killed and how, they performed with each other, trying to prove that this matter had nothing to do with him.

After the proof, Shi Aiguo said that Prince Li Zhi was sick because of his sadness and was lying on the bed. He sent Ouyang Li and asked him to go back early. The prince stopped writing a letter because of his sadness and just brought a message to Wang Ping'an. Ouyang Li naturally agreed and left the East Palace and went to Ganye Temple again.

Things at Ganye Temple were not going very smoothly, because the host nun had to choose an auspicious day to pick up his disciples. He waited for five days before waiting for the auspicious day of the zodiac. He accepted Wu Meiniang as his disciple and took the Dharma name for nothing.

After the ceremony, Ouyang Li sneaked into the temple, met Wu Meiniang, and said everything he should say, then left the capital and returned to Qingzhou.

Gyeongju.

These days, Wang Ping'an has never looked for Li Ke again. Now Li Ke is in an "extraordinary period", so he dare not provoke him. I don't know how to solve the problem of Wu Meiniang. How dare he interfere with Li Ke again? Are you afraid that he will not be tired to death?

Wang Ping'an did not go to find Li Ke, but Li Ke wanted to find Wang Ping'an. Because there was news from Goguryeo, a group of Goguryeo robbers broke into Yingzhou, robbed and burned them all, and fled before the Tang army arrived.

The reason why it was a robber in Goguryeo, not an army, was that a war broke out when an army crossed the border, so that Li Ke would not have the chance to go to Yingzhou and could not continue to struggle.

The news has been reported to Chang'an, and the court is waiting for the decision to make. Since the letter written by Li Ke asked Wang Ping'an in advance to be sent to Changsun Wuji long ago, it is estimated that the matter of changing the title will be finalized in half a month, and Li Ke will set off in less than a month.

Li Ke was eager to meet Wang Ping'an and asked for some news from him, but every time he sent someone, he couldn't find Wang Ping'an. Wang Ping'an hid in various counties, and he took a step earlier than the people sent by Li Ke. The feeling of strength was as if someone had reported him to him.

Li Ke also knew that Wang Ping'an was hiding from him, but he couldn't go to find him in person. That would be too impatient and had no choice but to wait.

At the same time, Chang'an.

Changsun Wuji sat in the Secretariat, with a document sent from Yingzhou on the table. It was not an urgent matter. He only said that a young robber came from Goguryeo to rob the local people and had been wiped out by the government army. This kind of thing was considered a bandit suppression, and it was a small matter that was not required to be reported to the Secretariat. However, because it was a robber from Goguryeo, the extermination of such robbers and doubled its contribution, so he reported it to Beijing.

Putting the documents into his sleeves, Changsun Wuji thought to himself: "It's time for me to take action. Last time, I praised Li Ke in front of the emperor, saying that he was diligent in doing things, and began to study the national conditions of Goguryeo again, wanting to know himself and his enemy, and to be able to win a hundred battles, share the worries of the court, and destroy Goguryeo, a tiger-and-wolf country. The emperor praised him. This time, it's time to send him to Yingzhou. I'm a little boy, playing open-minded plot with me, but I'm still afraid that you won't succeed!"

Changsun Wuji entered the palace and asked to see Emperor Li Shimin. Li Shimin's condition improved during this period and he was no longer sick. He heard Shi Zhongchen say that Changsun Wuji was coming and summoned him immediately.

Changsun Wuji entered the Ganlu Palace, presented the document to Li Shimin, and told the matter about Yingzhou. After reading the document, Li Shimin was furious. The person he hated the most in his life was the Goguryeo people, but he could not destroy it. It would be good if he didn't go to conquer Goguryeo. The robbers in Goguryeo dared to flee into the Tang Dynasty to commit crimes. This is great. They must be punished and counterattacked!

Li Shimin slapped the document on the table and said, "Goguryeo is a country of dung. It is really unbearable to repeatedly invade our country of heaven. I am determined to fight the east, what do you think?"

Changsun Wuji never agreed to Li Shimin's personal expedition. He didn't agree to his health before, not to mention that the emperor is sick and he is just maintaining his current situation. He even disagrees with his personal expedition.

He shook his head and said, "Emperor, the Eastern Expedition is a major event, and we cannot make a hasty decision. And even if you want an Eastern Expedition, you cannot go east now. Otherwise, what will our people of the Tang Dynasty think, and what will the subordinates of foreign countries think?"

Li Shimin angrily said, "If they think whatever they like, do they want the emperor to agree to the people and their vassals!" He slapped the table angrily, slamming the table pounding.

However, even though he got angry, Li Shimin understood the meaning of Changsun Wuji's words. Even if he wanted to conquer Goguryeo, he could not conquer it now. Otherwise, he would be laughed at by others and might have to be recorded in the history books. Li Shimin is most afraid of writing about his things in the history books.

A group of robbers from Goguryeo ran to the Tang Dynasty for some trouble, and then led to the Emperor of Tang to personally expedition... His Majesty the Emperor is too worthless. A few small robbers can help him and let him travel to Liaodong all the way. This is too embarrassing!

Changsun Wuji remained silent and waited for Li Shimin to get angry. When he became less angry, he said: "Your Majesty, even if you want to conquer Goguryeo, even if you want to fight in person, that is not something you can do this year. For the war, you have to prepare for at least one year. The transportation of food and grass and the assembly of the army cannot be completed in a few months!"

Li Shimin gasped and finally calmed down, saying, "I know this too, but the Goguryeo people are too hateful. I can't wait to punish them again next year, and I want to go now."

Changsun Wuji nodded immediately and said, "Indeed, the little Goguryeo has repeatedly violated the power of heaven, and it must be punished. However, the old minister thought that if a big fight was made, it would be unnecessary. It would seem that we bullied them. It would probably arouse suspicion from other vassal states. I think that my Tang Dynasty treats Goguryeo like this and will treat them the same in the future. This is something that must be guarded against."

Li Shimin leaned back dejectedly and said, "You are right. It's true. So do you have a way to deal with it?"

Changsun Wuji pretended to think about it and said, "It would be better to use a blunt knife to cut the flesh and slowly cut it, which hurts Goguryeo and its strength is greatly damaged. It will take almost a year. At that time, all the matters of our Eastern Expedition will be prepared, and we can destroy this food in one fell swoop!"

Li Shimin said, straightened his waist again, and said, "Wuji, are you talking about cutting flesh with a dull knife, but sending someone to Goguryeo to harass me?"

Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "That's exactly what the old ministers mean. Those Goguryeo robbers might be sent by the Goguryeo court, but why can't we send people to the same? They send ten, and we send one hundred to see who has more people!"

Li Shimin laughed twice and said, "Okay, this idea is good. At this time, spring plowing is approaching. If we send a large number of robbers over, it will make the Goguryeo people unable to sow seeds. They have not harvested this year. We will fight next year and we can get twice the result with half the effort!"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "Yes, that's what the old minister thinks. However, this matter is simple but difficult to do. He has to send someone familiar with Goguryeo. However, there seems to be no one in the court who is very familiar with Goguryeo. Everyone looks down on Goguryeo and disdains to understand this dirt country!"

Li Shimin nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Last time, Wuji, you said Ke'er was studying the customs and customs of Goguryeo. Do you think it's appropriate to send him?"
