However, Feng Shui took turns. In the ninth year of Wude, Li Er made a desperate move to launch the Xuanwumen Change, killing the prince Li Jiancheng and Qi Wang Li Yuanji, and forcing Li Yuan into the palace.

Li Yuan was forced to appoint Li Er as the prince, and then abdicated, living in the Taiji Palace and living in seclusion.

This Master Fa Ya, however, still often goes in and out of the palace to meet with the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan and talk about Buddhism.

It would be fine if Fa Ya only talked about Buddhism, and Li Er, as an emperor, would not make it difficult for a monk.But this master Fa Ya was not a person who knew how to advance and retreat. When talking with the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan in private, he often complained about Li Er, complaining about the prince Li Jiancheng, and feeling angry about what happened to the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

Although what Fa Ya and Li Yuan said were all private words, but in Nuo Da's Tai Chi Palace, where is there any wall that does not leak the wind?This matter naturally spread to Li Er's ears.

Annoyed, Li Er simply issued an order to revoke Faya's right to enter and exit the palace and forbid him to enter and leave the palace again.

It should be considered that the matter is over here, and Fa Ya will continue to stay in his Daci Temple as his eminent monk, and everything will be fine.

However, Fa Ya belongs to the kind of person with extremely low emotional intelligence. He actually held a grudge because Li Er canceled his right to enter and exit the palace. The severe drought was attributed to Li Er not cultivating personal virtues, that was God's punishment for his change of Xuanwu Gate, killing his brother and imprisoning his father...

Such rebellious words were naturally reported to the court.

Faya is just a monk, and he is not from a family like Qiwang with five surnames. How could Li Er be merciless?

Not only did Fa Ya succeed in committing suicide, she was also given the title of "Monk Fa Ya".What is even more tragic is that before Fa Ya died, he accused Prime Minister Pei Ji of being his accomplice, so Pei Ji was demoted and returned to his hometown.

Because of this incident, Li Yuan quickly moved out of the Taiji Palace and moved to the cold Da'an Palace, where he died of illness six years later.

Li Wangyou recalled this part of the case clearly, and when he thought about Wei Shuyu actually going to ask his mother for the Buddhist scriptures copied by Fa Ya himself, he felt very bad.

Although in the history books, it is only recorded that Prime Minister Fei Ji was unlucky because of Fa Ya, but who can guarantee that Wei Shuyu or Wei Zheng will not be implicated by this?

After all, since he traveled to Datang, the changes caused by the flapping of butterfly wings are not uncommon.Who knows if Wei Shuyu ever asked for a Buddhist scripture written by Fa Ya for his mother?

Who can be sure, after Faya was captured by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, would she grab and bite indiscriminately?

Although Li Wangyou also knew that the reason why Prime Minister Fei Ji was sadly dismissed from office and sent back to his hometown because of the case of "Monk Fa Ya" was because Fei Ji was an old minister of the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

Li Er's move was also to clean up Li Yuan's influence in the court.

But this kind of thing should be avoided as much as possible.

Now it has been three years of Zhenguan, and Fa Ya will be banned from the palace by Li Er's decree soon. At this time, it would be unwise to get involved with that idiot.

Thinking of this, Li Wangyou couldn't help trying to persuade him: "Brother Shuyu, my younger brother advises you to exchange a congratulatory gift for Lingtang. You don't need the Buddhist scriptures copied by Master Fa Ya."

What he said made Wei Shuyu, Chai Lingwu and others stunned, and asked in puzzlement: "Why did Ziyou say that? What's wrong with the Buddhist scriptures copied by Master Fa Ya? That's how many families in Chang'an city. Can't ask for anything."

Li Wangyou scratched his hair angrily, but he didn't know how to explain it.

Could it be that he said that he knew Falla was going to be in trouble soon?I'm afraid no one will believe these words, and if it spreads in the future, it will be even more troublesome.

This is a bit of a pain in the ass...

785 Fame and Fame

Faced with the dude's doubts, Li Wangyou could only evade his words and said vaguely: "Master Fa Ya, um, my brother feels that although His Majesty the Supreme Emperor values ​​him, he may not be an eminent monk."

Fang Yiai wondered: "Oh? Why did Ziyou say that? Master Fa Ya's reputation is known to everyone in Chang'an."

Li Wangyou shrugged his shoulders: "Sramana disciples, don't they pay attention to jumping out of the world of mortals and cutting off their ties? Then why is this Master Fa Ya frequently in and out of the palace?" It’s nothing more than a generation of fame and wealth, but it’s like the old god Sun, who declined the title given by the sage at the beginning, and lived in seclusion in the mountains to study the way of medicine, this is a master of the world.”

Anyway, Monk Fa Ya will seek his own death in a short time, and Li Wangyou doesn't care if he offends this person, and directly degrades him for fame.

Wei Shuyu thought about Li Wangyou's words, shook his head, and said nothing more.

He is also a smart person, but from Li Wangyou's words, he picked up two words, "The Supreme Emperor" and "Forbidden to enter and leave the palace".

Ever since the second year of Zhenguan, the aristocratic family led hundreds of officials to force the palace to support the restoration of the Supreme Emperor, everyone can see that the so-called "father's kindness and son's filial piety" by the royal family is just a joke.

His father, Wei Zheng, was the imperial doctor of Yushitai and Li Er's confidant minister. At this time, it was really not worthwhile for their Wei family to have a relationship with Monk Fa Ya, a popular person next to the Supreme Emperor.

If the adults of his family are suspected by the saint because of this matter, then it will be very bad.

Wei Shuyu wanted to understand this, and suddenly felt that he hadn't thought carefully before, and looked at Li Wangyou with gratitude.

He vaguely sensed that this was probably the reason why Li Wangyou objected to him asking Monk Fa Ya for scriptures as his mother.

In the elegant room, apart from the dudes, there were twenty or thirty orchids present, so it was naturally inconvenient to continue chatting about this kind of topic, everyone laughed, and started messing around with orchids again in the dark.

Of course, Li Wangyou is not a gentleman, after reminding Wei Shuyu, he also drank and had fun with the dudes.A pair of hands has already penetrated into the lapel of the orchid next to him, playing with the softness of the beautiful orchid beside him, so happy... Although he can't really do anything, but if he doesn't take advantage of it, how can he not take advantage of it? Isn't it too bad?

After messing around with the dudes, Li Wangyou didn't think too much about the "Monk Faya". For the next few days, he was busy recruiting craftsmen and preparing to start building the theater.

But Li Wangyou didn't expect that the words he said in the barbarian's restaurant that day were actually heard by Hu Ji who was present, and told other benefactors as a joke.

Over and over again, Huxian Bo disrespected Master Fa Ya of Ci'en Temple, calling him a person who was trying to catch fame and fame, and the news spread all over the city very quickly.

Many disciples of Master Fa Ya are dissatisfied with Li Wangyou because of this.

If it weren't for the fear of Li Wangyou's honorable status as the founding county uncle, I am afraid that Li Wangyou's mansion in Kaihuafang would have been thrown rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves as a protest.

After all, Monk Fa Ya has a great reputation. He was originally an eminent monk in the late Sui Dynasty, and he was valued by Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng. He has countless followers in Chang'an City.

Li Wangyou's words spread, and he did not hesitate to poke a hornet's nest.

In Chang'an City's hundreds of officials and honors, there are quite a few Falla believers.After all, Fa Ya can make Li Yuan trust her, so her eloquence is naturally outstanding.

Listening to his preaching and explanation of Buddhism, many officials and dignitaries were convinced by him.

Otherwise, how could Wei Shuyu want to rely on his relationship to ask for a volume of scriptures copied by Fa Ya himself as a birthday gift for his mother.

Ordinary people didn't dare to do anything to Li Wangyou, at most they cursed in private, but these noble officials may not be so easy to talk to.Even the young censors at Yushitai, many of whom were planning to impeach Li Wangyou to Li Er at the court meeting, charged with humiliating Buddhist eminent monks.

Ma Zhou, Yan Liben, Liu Rengui and Shangguanyi were also very worried after learning about this matter, and immediately ran to Li's residence to ask their teacher to see if there was any way to resolve the matter.

"Master, I have heard that many disciples of Master Fa Ya complained about the master. Even in Yushi Taizhong, I heard that there is a censor who wants to impeach the master." In the lobby of the Li Mansion, Ma Zhou said worriedly .

Yan Liben also nodded: "That's right, my disciples have heard about this matter. Master Fa Ya is indeed a bit Meng Lang about this matter. After all, Master Fa Ya is a popular person next to the Emperor Taishang. Offending this person rashly may cause a lot of trouble. "

Liu Rengui and Shangguanyi are now following Xu Jingzong in managing the affairs of the Royal Academy, and they don't know much about the court affairs. Although they are worried for Li Wangyou, they don't know what to say.

Li Wangyou didn't care about his disciples' worries at all. After all, in his opinion, Falla was just a grasshopper after autumn, and it wouldn't last a few days.

It is now April of the third year of Zhenguan, and Li Er will soon issue an order to prohibit Fa Ya from entering and leaving the palace.

Of course, these things, others do not know.

Li Wangyou didn't expect that what he said in private with the dudes could cause such a commotion.Regarding the influence of these monks, Li Wangyou also couldn't laugh or cry.

He waved his hands to the four disciples and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter. As a teacher, I just talk about it in private. Could it be that Monk Fa Ya still comes to trouble the teacher?"

"But..." Ma Zhou was about to persuade his teacher again, but saw the old housekeeper Li Heng rushing into the lobby from outside.
