Saint Monk, Landlord, Beggar, Eunuch.
This was the first time the waiter had seen such a strange combination.
Xu Changsheng and the 'landlord' took their seats one after another, but the 'beggar' and the eunuch did not dare to sit.
The King of Yan said,"Mr.…Ai, please sit."”
Only then did Fu Tianchou and the old eunuch sit on the long bench.
"This poor monk rushed to the robbery site in the morning to rescue Lord Fu Tianchou," Xu Changsheng replied.”
The waiter did not recognize Fu Tianchou because of Xu Changsheng's camouflage. He asked,""Has the holy monk rescued Lord Fu?"
"There are many soldiers at the execution ground. It's really difficult to save Lord Fu.”
"I reckon that even the holy monk can't save Lord Fu, right?”
The waiter let out a long sigh and said regretfully,"It's a pity that the people have lost another good official.”
Xu Changsheng glanced at Fu Tianchou from the corner of his eye and said with a smile,""There were many soldiers, but fortunately, Lord Fu was rescued.”
"Is that so?"
The waiter was surprised at first, but then he shook his head.
"Unfortunately, even if Lord Fu survives, it's useless.”
"Why is it useless?" asked the King of Yan.
The waiter glanced at the King of Yan and said,""There are no outsiders here, so I'll be straightforward.”
The King of Yan spread his hands and said,"It's fine to say it."”
The waiter said in a low voice," In the imperial court now, I am a treacherous official and the ruler is a fatuous ruler. Even if Lord Fu is lucky enough to survive, what's the use?"”
"I can't use my hands and feet at all!"
" How dare you! What nonsense are you spouting? Do you know that the person in front of you…"
The old eunuch slammed the table in anger and shouted at the waiter.
Xu Changsheng pinched the old eunuch's thumb and forefinger. The old eunuch was immediately rendered speechless.
The old eunuch wanted to open his mouth, but it was like glue that was stuck to him.
Xu Changsheng glanced at the old eunuch indifferently.
The old eunuch was terrified. He immediately knew that it was the ability of the holy monk in front of him. He immediately became obedient and did not dare to make any noise.
The waiter poured water for Xu Changsheng and the others and said,""You're quite angry. I'm talking about the fatuous ruler and treacherous officials, not you.”
"Come, come, come. Drink a cup of tea to calm down.”
The King of Yan raised his coarse porcelain bowl. When he heard the waiter call him a fatuous ruler again, his palm could not help but tremble.
The King of Yan quickly changed the topic." Waiter, why isn't there a single tea leaf in your tea?"”
"Tea leaves?"
The waiter shook his head.
"I still want to drink tea leaves. It's not bad to have water to drink.”
"If there's a drought, we probably won't even have water to drink.”
"Why?" asked the King of Yan.
After the waiter explained the reason, the King of Yan's heart sank to the bottom.
After drinking the tea, Xu Changsheng left with the King of Yan.
On the way back to the palace of the Capital of Yan on the third-grade Lotus Throne, the King of Yan said in a deep voice,""I originally thought that what Pudu Cihang left behind was just a chaotic court discipline and a mess.”
"I didn't expect that what he threw to me was a country that had long been devastated and was on the verge of collapse.”
" It seems that Your Majesty already has an answer to the first question," Xu Changsheng said calmly.”
The King of Yan wept sorrowfully. He put his palms together and bowed to the ground."I beg the holy monk to save the people.”
Xu Changsheng shook his head and said," Your Majesty, the country is your country. The people are also your people. How can I save them?"”
The King of Yan said," I'm willing to make the Holy Monk the Nation Master. I'll build 480 temples for the Holy Monk. Each of them is as magnificent as Pudu Cihang Temple. Millions of people in the country will believe in the Holy Monk."”
"In this case, can we save the country?"
Xu Changsheng's eyes were deep. He put his palms together and replied calmly,""Your Majesty, believing in Buddhism cannot save the country.”
Believing in Buddhism can't save the country?
The King of Yan was stunned.
Fu Tianchou was stunned.
The old eunuch, who had removed his silence restriction, was also stunned.
A huge wave was set off in their hearts!
How could they not be shocked that this sentence came from the mouth of a Saint Monk with profound Buddhist Dharma?
With just one sentence, the King of Yan, Fu Tianchou, and the others even suspected that the Saint Monk before them was really…a monk?
The King of Yan, whose heart was in turmoil, asked with a myriad of doubts,"Holy…Holy Monk, what do you mean?"
Xu Changsheng chanted the name of Buddha and said,""Amitabha. Because of the previous merciful voyage, the Yan Country has been in chaos and has become poor and weak.”
"If we build temples all over the country at this time, it will only make things worse.”
"In addition, if all living beings believe in Buddhism, who will produce, who will do business, and who will have children?”
"Believing in Buddhism can make people have good thoughts, but it can't make people healthy and rich.”
After hearing Xu Changsheng's words, the King of Yan felt enlightened. His entire body trembled and he instantly understood.
Fu Tianchou sighed." The Holy Monk is a Buddha, but he said that all sentient beings should not believe in Buddha according to the facts.”
"At this level, other saint monks and divine monks are far behind. The Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in the sky are like floating clouds in front of the saint monk!”
Xu Changsheng put his palms together and said,"Lord Fu, you flatter me."?”
The King of Yan's admiration for Xu Changsheng was unending.
"May I ask, Holy Monk, how can I turn the tide and save the world?”
" Food is the foundation of people's livelihood," Xu Changsheng replied." Your Majesty can reduce taxes, encourage production, end unnecessary wars, and let the soldiers return to the fields."”
"In the Imperial Court, Your Majesty still needs to look down on villains and value good officials.”
"Your Majesty, you might not know this, but the treacherous officials in Pudu Cihang Temple have all been emptied of their flesh and blood by demons.”
"Right now, His Majesty needs to select more talents to make up for the lack of talents in the Imperial Court.”
The King of Yan bowed three times and said solemnly,""From today onwards, I will take the holy monk as my master!”
"I don't deserve it," said Xu Changsheng with a smile.”
The King of Yan asked," I have a son. He has been smart since he was young. I wonder if he is lucky enough to follow the Holy Monk and learn Buddhism?"”
Xu Changsheng declined politely." Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and Buddha is sitting in his heart. If people learn from me, it's like entering the devil path!"”
"This Penniless Monk is different from ordinary Buddhas. I can't casually take in disciples, or else I'll only lead them astray.”
"If the prince is fated with Buddha, even if I don't take him as a disciple, he will still join the Buddhist Sect. Please rest assured, Your Majesty.”
The King of Yan said regretfully," He is not fated to be a saint monk. If he joins other Buddhists, he will only learn some pedantic things. He will bring back all the precepts, so it's fine if he doesn't."”
"He was unable to learn from the Holy Monk because he didn't have the good fortune.”
