I'm a marquis in Datang

Master Jiexian opened his eyes.

There was a hint of helplessness in the slightly cloudy eyes.

Master Jiexian is now more than a hundred years old.But although he is old, he has good hearing and eyesight, and he hasn't even lost much of his teeth.Such a situation is extremely rare in Tianzhu.This is precisely the case, Master Jiexian is like a living fossil in Nalanda Temple.It is very famous in the entire Jieri Kingdom, and even the Chaluqi Dynasty in the south.

Monarchs of all countries have to be respectful and respectful in front of Master Jiexian.

He is very thin.

It even looks a little skinny.Especially his skin now has many age spots, that cheek is full of wrinkles, full of endless

This is a face that has been eroded by countless years.

Master Jiexian said, "Sit!"

Xuanzang sat down with a calm expression on his face, after all he could often see Master Jiexian.Especially when in doubt, Xuanzang would always ask Master Jiexian for advice.

It's just that Xuanzang was a little puzzled when he saw that Master Jiexian hadn't spoken for a long time, but Xuanzang also didn't speak.

Monks who become monks pay attention to one's concentration.

Pay attention to a state of mind.

Xuanzang has converted to Buddhism for many years, and his heart has long been as still as water.Even if the person in front of him was Master Jiexian, he was still not affected at all.After a while, Master Jiexian said, "Xuanzang, you know Du Qi, the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, right?"

"Know!"

Xuanzang nodded.

He had doubts on his face, and asked, "Master, how did you ask about Du Qi?"

When Xuanzang first arrived in Qunu City, King Jieri specially invited him there to ask about Du Qi.But now, Master Jiexian also asked.You must know that Master Jiexian is different from King Jieri.

King Jieri is a layman and the monarch of a country, so it is really unfair to care about Du Qi's situation.

normal.Master Kejiexian had long since detached himself and ignored worldly affairs, but now he opened his mouth to ask, which made Xuanzang even more puzzled.

Master Jiexian sighed, rubbed the sandalwood beads in his hand, and said: "I just received the news from the Lord of Magadha that Du Qi has already killed King Jieri and captured Qunv City."

Nalanda Temple belongs to the Magadha Kingdom.

The Magadha Kingdom was also subordinated to King Jieri.

Now the King Jieri was killed and the news of the fall of Qunu City had already spread throughout the Jieri Kingdom.The monarchs of all countries have already heard the news, and they are even a little panicked.

The reason is very simple. Du Qi wants to abolish the caste system, which is tantamount to digging the ancestral graves of the monarchs of various countries.After all, the monarchs of all countries are of noble origin.

Now that King Jie Ri was killed, these people naturally panicked.

Xuanzang was shocked when he heard it.

how is this possible.

It was only a few months before Xuanzang left Qunv City, not long after that, before October, Du Qi had captured Qunv City and killed King Jieri.

At this moment, Xuanzang was really shocked by Du Qi's fighting power.

Du Qi is too good at fighting.

Xuanzang still had some doubts, and said: "Master Jiexian, I was walking in Jieri, and I know the situation of Jieri King. There are [-] elephant soldiers under Jieri King's command, and there are many infantry and cavalry. A forceful front. Such an army should not be easily defeated. How come it was defeated all of a sudden?"

Master Jiexian said: "The details of how it fell, the information given by the Lord is not clear. The confirmed news is that Du Qi has entered the Zhuqu Nu City, and King Jieri is really dead."

"Ugh…"

Xuanzang sighed: "Speaking of which, I once met King Jieri once. When I arrived in Qunu City, he personally hosted a banquet for me. Unexpectedly, after a few months, he died."

The ability of King Jie Ri is still good.

After all, there are few wars in Japan, and the people live and work in relative peace and contentment.

Chapter 1046 Xuanzang Goes Northward

Xuanzang goes north

Although Xuanzang said he didn't care about things, he had a clear mind. He said in a deep voice, "Master Jiexian, now that Du Qi has entered the Zhuqu Nu City, does it mean that the next step is to go to Nalanda, Magadha? Come to the temple."

Master Jiexian said: "This point is not yet available. According to the news, after Du Qi arrived in Qunv City, he temporarily stood still in Qunv City and never took the initiative to expand to the surrounding areas."

Xuanzang said, "That's good."

In fact, from the point of view of Xuanzang's original intention, he didn't want Du Qi to kill along the way and keep attacking cities and looting land.Because in Xuanzang's eyes, people from various countries here in Tianzhu, even though they live under the caste system, are pretty good.Especially the princes and nobles here in Tianzhu are quite kind to him.

Master Jiexian said: "Although Du Qi has not sent troops at the moment, the entire Jieri country and the borders of various countries are not peaceful, and countless civilians have already begun to rebel."

Xuanzang asked, "How come?"

Master Jiexian said: "You have been indulging in Buddhism and ignoring the outside world. Naturally, you don't know the outside world. As soon as Du Qi entered the Jieri Kingdom, he abolished the caste system. Especially Du Qixian won the Jiantuoluo Kingdom. Gandhara country implemented this strategy. Now in Qunu city, it implements this strategy again."

Speaking of this, Master Jiexian's face became darker, and he said: "The implementation of the two consecutive places has caused countless civilians to flock to the net. At the same time, there are also countless poor people who saw the opportunity, and they began to rebel. In this chaos, countless people were killed, common people were killed, and countless people died tragically in this massacre."

As Xuanzang listened, there was a hint of thought in his eyes.

These things have nothing to do with him.

It has nothing to do with Master Jiexian.

After all, they are all monks, and they are not contaminated by the world.But Master Jiexian said this, so of course he had intentions, so Xuanzang said, "I can understand what Master Jiexian said, but it is also a pity. But you should not only talk about these things when you come to me. What do you want to tell me?" ?"

There was a smile on Master Jiexian's old cheek.His slumped body also began to lean forward a little bit, staring at Xuanzang with kind eyes.

Master Jiexian said: "Xuanzang, our country of Magadha does not want this kind of thing to happen again. The rest of the countries do not want to kill again. Since the countries around the country of Magadha, the lords of all countries have already met. Gathered in the Magadha Kingdom to discuss countermeasures. In the end, the king thought of you. You are from the Tang Dynasty. At any rate, you have some friendship with Du Qi. And you are very eloquent. The kings of all countries hope that you can make a trip to Qunu city."

Xuanzang frowned.

He has always disliked getting involved in government affairs, because he is a monk and an outsider.Once involved in government affairs, it is easy to pollute one's pure heart because of these things.Especially with the first time, there will be the second and third time, and the follow-up cannot be refused.

But Xuanzang looked at Master Jiexian's expectant eyes, and Xuanzang was a little hard to refuse.

The other party is very kind to him.

Because many classics are actually quite boring, but

Master Jiexian explained to him, making many Buddhist classics less boring, and after explaining in simple terms, everything became easy to understand.

Xuanzang took a deep breath and said, "Master, what purpose do you want me to achieve by asking me to represent various countries?"

Master Jiexian said: "The states in the south of the Jieri Kingdom headed by Magadha are willing to submit to the Xia Kingdom and respect Du Qi as the master. The only condition is that Du Qi will not send troops south. At the same time, the caste system can be abolished in the north of Qunu City, but the current system will still be implemented in the south of Qunu City. This is a condition that needs to be fulfilled. It means that Du Qi does not need a single soldier. The nations will submit."
