I am a judge in the Tang Dynasty - #144 - Chapter 144
The passing of Queen Changsun.
Let the huge palace fall into deep sorrow.
A touch of fish belly white appeared faintly on the horizon.
However, everyone, including Li Shimin, was invited out of the Li Zheng Hall.
In addition to Lin Xiu and Queen Changsun, as well as Zhong Kui and Zhao Sheng who were called from outside.
Even the entrance to the Li Zheng Palace was guarded by government officials.
Such a scene.
But this has never happened before, at least in the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin has never had this situation happen before.
Many palace maids and eunuchs were talking endlessly.
Even the princes and princesses are quite controversial about this.
Many people think that although Empress Changsun has died of illness, why bother?
Even if Lin Xiu is somewhat capable, doing this would be a great disrespect to Empress Changsun.
Of course, they only dared to discuss it secretly behind their backs, and did not dare to speak out directly in person.
Princess Changle, the Empress Changsun and her daughter have the deepest feelings.
Now she is also in the most pain.
After coming out of the Li Zheng Hall, she stood outside the door.
No matter who tried to persuade her, she was unwilling to leave and just waited…
As the king of a country, Li Shimin’s body was the most important thing and nothing could go wrong.
One morning passed.
The Supreme Emperor Li Yuan has come here five or six times.
And every time I came over and saw the government officials at the door, they would sigh, shake their heads, and turn around to leave.
In his opinion, maybe Changsun Wugou is his favorite daughter-in-law, right?
It is also a huge regret to die so young.
However, at this moment, in the Li Zheng Hall.
Lin Xiu sat on a low stool with a chuckle on his face, staring at Taoist Changbai opposite him.
Don’t ask anything, just look at each other.
As a result, the more this happened, the weaker the Taoist priest felt.
I hesitated to speak several times, but in the end I still couldn’t take the initiative to speak out.
Zhao Sheng, Li Si, and Wang Fen were standing nearby, their eyes filled with murderous intent.
“Sir, it’s almost noon, should we have dinner?”Zhong Kui walked in from outside the palace and said.
Lin Xiu smiled:”Well, it’s time to eat. Just go to the imperial kitchen and have the food delivered here!”
“Hehe, I’ve long wanted to try the delicacies in the imperial dining room, and today I’m in for a treat!”
Zhong Kui smiled, turned around and went straight outside.
After a while, a fragrant smell drifted in from outside the palace.
A dozen eunuchs each carried a food box, and the fragrance came from the food box. It came in.
When Zhao Sheng and Li Si helped open the food boxes and put all the delicious dishes on the table, Lin Xiu was shocked.
The life in this palace was really luxurious. , there are more than twenty dishes in one lunch.
And the ingredients of each dish are very precious.
Even in the later generations, there are few foods that are slightly inferior, but they are edible. , Lin Xiu sat down. Zhong Kui, Zhao Sheng and the others ate and drank.
Even if Zhong Kui was a foodie, he could quickly eat up all the food. Lin Xiu only took two bites of each dish. He already felt full.
And Zhong Kui, like a starving man, actually ate all the dishes.
When the eunuchs were called to clear away the dishes, they were all surprised. Startled.
He looked at the empty plates in great surprise, but couldn’t say anything. Lin Xiu stopped the last eunuch just as he was about to leave.
“grown ups!”
The little eunuch didn’t know why, and he quickly bowed and said.
Lin Xiu smiled and nodded:”I want to ask you, has Queen Changsun ever eaten so much food on weekdays?”
“Sir, the queen eats very little on weekdays and likes to be vegetarian. She is frugal and only has two dishes for each meal!”The little eunuch said quickly
“oh? Does anyone know about this?”Lin Xiu continued to ask
“This… if I tell you, almost everyone knows it!” said the little eunuch.
Hearing this, Lin Xiu nodded, smiled and waved his hand to let her go.
Zhong Kui burped and asked,”This queen’s appetite is so small, and she also likes to eat vegetarian dishes. What about that? What are the vegetarian dishes to eat? You eat that thing all the time, and your mouth still feels like a bird?”
After he finished speaking, Zhao Sheng and Li Si both gave him a fierce look.
Where is this place? How dare you talk nonsense.
You know, the body of Queen Changsun was lying there.
Zhong Kui suddenly understood and hurriedly whipped himself The two mouths did not dare to say anything.
During the meal, Taoist Changbai kept chirping. It was obvious that he had not slept all night and was a little hungry.
“Taoist Changbai, do you have something you want to say? Lin
Xiu turned around and said to the Taoist priest with a smile.
“This… I have nothing to say! Changbai Taoist shook his head
“Haha, that’s good. As a monk, the Taoist priest should be here to eulogize the queen and send her to the land of bliss. I wonder if the Taoist priest can read the scriptures about transcendence?”Lin Xiu said with a smile.
After saying that, Zhong Kui, Zhao Sheng and the others were all confused.
They thought to themselves: Sir, what’s wrong?
You haven’t slept all night, is it possible that you are confused?
A scripture about transcendence? That’s not something that monks only recite. , This has nothing to do with the Taoist priest.
However, the next moment, they realized what was going on.
They saw the Taoist priest nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
“Meeting, meeting, meeting, the poor Taoist has been reciting this sutra every day since he went up the mountain!”The Taoist priest said.
Phew!
Zhong Kui, Zhao Sheng and the others almost didn’t laugh.
Lin Xiu nodded:”That’s good. How about this? Why don’t the Taoist Master read a paragraph to the Queen? After reading it, the Taoist Master can leave. how?”
Hearing this, the Taoist priest almost burst into laughter.
“Is this true, sir? Then, that poor Taoist will read the previous paragraph!”The Taoist priest said.
Lin Xiu nodded and sat there motionless.
Then, he saw that the Taoist priest had a decent appearance. He clasped his hands and came to the body of Queen Changsun. He sat cross-legged on the ground with his knees closed and looked serious.
Lin Xiu sat on the low stool with a smile. They all wanted to hear what the Taoist priest was saying. However
, when they came closer.
After what he said, Zhong Kui’s expression immediately changed.
You must know that the theory of transcendence exists in both Buddhism and Taoism.
However, it is widely known that only Buddhists can recite scriptures, but this is not the case.
Taoists also use the”Rebirth Mantra” to transcend the souls of the dead, while the Buddhists often use the”Ksitigarbha Sutra” to transcend the souls of the dead.
But the Taoist priest in front of him is clearly a Taoist, and he is actually chanting Buddhist scriptures. Transcendence Sutra…
Zhong Kui’s face changed drastically, he jumped into a rage and kicked him hard.
“Damn it, you are a Taoist priest, why do you recite the Ksitigarbha Sutra? Are you a fake Taoist priest or a real monk?”
Hearing this, the Taoist priest’s face changed with shock.
He was so frightened that cold sweat began to flow out immediately.……
