The old emperor smiled and nodded slightly at him and said:

"No need for too much ritual, I still want to listen to Master Xuyun's lecture."

Master Yian was a wise man. He knew that the old emperor wanted to have something to give, so he quickly dispersed everyone, led the way, and led the old emperor to the Zen room behind him.

General Su led everyone to stay, and Master Yi'an arranged for all the monks to wait. The monk Jingyi was still standing in front of the hall. When Master Xuyun walked closer, he glanced at him, but he didn't blame anything.

"You come here too."

When the old emperor heard this, he turned around and seemed to see Zhou Heng and Zhu Yunmo at this moment, and said with a stern face:

"What, I want me to invite you to come and serve you?"

Fang Jizhong bowed to the two of them very appropriately, with a smile on his face.

"Criminal and Prince Zhou please, please."

Zhu Yunmo did not rush to move, and secretly glanced at Zhou Heng. Seeing Zhou Heng bowing and following him, he followed him. Everyone did not say anything, and walked straight around the hall and came to the Zen room behind.

Fang Jizhong stood in front of the door with a few eunuchs, opened the curtains, and several people entered the room.

The old emperor and Master Xuyun sat on the cushion, Zhou Heng and Zhu Yunmo stood beside the old emperor, while Master Yian stood humbly beside Master Xuyun.

Only monk Jingyi stood in the middle with a look of panic. When he arrived here, he knew very well that many things were just about the emperor's face, so it did not happen. Thinking of the Japanese monks placed in the capital, monk Jingyi's face was a little pale.

The old emperor glanced at Monk Jingyi and hummed before he could speak. Monk Jingyi was really cowardly at this moment, and his body trembled and he quickly lowered his head.

"Monkey Jingyi, do you know what kind of crime is deceiving the monarch?"

As soon as this said, Monk Jingyi knelt directly in front of the old emperor.

"The little monk is frightened."

Zhu Yunmo curled his lips, "I'm afraid? Are you teasing me? Who is the Master Jingyi who was talking about in front of the hall two hours ago?

He also talked to more than a dozen Japanese people, and spoke eloquently, making me think you are a rare monk from Daliang after Master Xuyun.”

Monk Jingyi didn't say anything, so there was no way to make a statement. After all, it was always a quibble.

The old emperor's face was gloomy and he glanced at Master Xuyun.

"I don't know the people clearly. Today, I took the confession of these fake Japanese monks in Shuntian Mansion to interrogate them. I really lost my face. Among the twelve Japanese people, there were eleven of them not monks, and only one young monk of eighteen or nineteen years old. Everything they said was arranged according to your words. Isn't this the crime of deceiving the king?"

Monk Jingyi was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that in just two hours, all the arrangements he had made had been known to the emperor. He disappeared from the calmness he had just now and crawled on the ground.

"The little monk knows his guilt, but he just wants to show his power in our country. Even in Buddhism, he hopes to be superior."

Master Xuyun shook his head, and such words really made him speechless.

"Amitabha, falsehood is false after all, how can you say that you are better than others? It's just a self-deception. Buddhism emphasizes saving sentient beings and being compassionate. Haven't you realized your mistakes yet?

This is not a question of your original intention. What you ruined is the reputation of all monks. It is thanks to you that Buddhism has been breached by others in Daliang.

If it weren't for Your Majesty's mercy, you would have already had a different body and head at this moment. It's not that you shouldn't die of your sin, but because you are a monk and your Majesty has good thoughts."

The old emperor glanced at Master Xuyun, and his words really made him very proud.

In fact, even now, the old emperor wished to cut off this monk Jingyi. Not being punished was just for his own face. After all, he was treated like that in Baohe Palace.

Monk Jingyi crawled on the ground, and was really scared at this moment, his whole body trembled and kept trembling. The old emperor paused a little, his face seemed a little entangled, and he looked at Master Xuyun.

"Master Xuyun believes that it is more appropriate to deal with this monk Jingyi?"

Master Xuyun nodded slightly to the old emperor and said:

"It would be better to let me, the newly accepted disciple, deal with this matter. Zhou Heng, tell me, how should I deal with this matter?"

The old emperor was stunned, but then he understood that Zhou Heng was a layman and knew the best at this time. Even if he was beaten and killed, it was not considered a violation of the rules and regulations. He immediately looked at Zhou Heng.

"You say!"

Zhou Heng bowed and bowed. It was not the court verdict now, but he didn't want to kneel down at any time, just talking without any politeness.

After pondering for a moment, he turned around and looked at Monk Jingyi. The guy also looked up at Zhou Heng.

After only a few days of talking about the fate of Tiansha Guxing, there was nothing in the entire capital that he had no idea about, and he also lost his salary and was dismissed from the court. All of this is thanks to him.

Zhou Heng took a deep breath and then said calmly:

"If Your Majesty trusts you, this monk Jingyi will be left to Master Yi'an to take care of you, so you will be confined to the underground secret room of Baohua Temple to protect the thirteen sets of scriptures he brought back. In the future, no matter whether it is Baohua Temple or other places, what does Your Majesty think?"

Every time he said a word, Monk Jingyi trembled a little, and his face turned pale in the end.

Zhou Heng knew that today's statement was really cruel.

This is equivalent to life imprisonment and deprivation of political rights for life, and is similar to White Snake. He was suppressed underground in Baohua Temple. For a person with such a strong desire to perform, it is even more difficult to kill him.

Zhu Yunmo was a little shocked. After all, this punishment was actually a little more ruthless than killing him.

Sure enough, as soon as he said that, Monk Jingyi wanted to get up.

Master Yian, who was standing beside Master Xuyun, turned around and looked at Monk Jingyi, and just slapped his shoulder. Monk Jingyi was still in place, with his mouth open and his eyes were panicked.

The old emperor raised his eyebrows. In fact, he thought that Zhou Heng would say directly when he came up, he wanted to kill this monk Jingyi.

After all, the Jingyi monk in Baohe Palace had made Zhou Heng look embarrassed and had no official position. The most important thing was that he almost made him feel like he was murderous.

Looking back now, I was so lucky that I was hesitant at that time, so I was afraid of contacting these things.

The empress dowager received the Qibao bracelet, went to monk Jingyi to preach and establish his reputation, until she finally went to Beijing to be named a master, and there were also Japanese monks discussing the Dharma. All of this could be felt as if someone was behind her control.

So some people deliberately helped Monk Jingyi to India three years ago. These Japanese monks were definitely not able to plan all the plans.

It was collected from India, then rehearsed, and took these people back to Fujian by boat, and then went to Beijing.

The journey is not a short distance. The cost of more than a dozen people is really amazing. They can hide it very well, making people in the court think that these people are coming from Japan. This plan is too terrible.

But it is impossible to know who is really controlling it at this moment, so this monk Jingyi still has to keep it. This matter must be investigated carefully, at least it will be a deterrent to the person who is controlling it behind it.

Of course, the first suspicious person that the old emperor thought of was the Wen family. The Wen family was not cleaned. If it were said to be the Wen family, what could they get by doing this?

Just to remove a friend of Zhu Yunmo?

Or is it for Zhu Xiaochang to avenge him, or is it for Zhu Xiaochang to succeed in the future in the Ning Palace?

All of these seem to be too far away, and with Wen Changjin's personality, he would not have done such a thing because of his daughter, and he would never let himself stand under a dangerous wall.

The old emperor looked at Master Xuyun, and Zhou Heng's words were loud and loud. The old emperor hoped to see his opinion on this matter from Master Xuyun's face. Seeing that Master Xuyun was still as usual, this surprised the old emperor a little.

The key is that I didn't expect that Zhou Heng would have such an opportunity to meet Master Xuyun and be accepted as a closed disciple by him. Such an honor is not something that ordinary people can get.

"Does Master Xuyun agree with this placement method?"

Master Xuyun smiled and saluted the old emperor.
