Time Travel: The Useless Prince, First Destroy the Princess

Liu Yan watched quietly, was silent for a while, and took a deep breath.

Liu Zhao's tears gradually stopped, and Zhang Hong retreated.

Liu Yan moved a little.

"The closest relationship in the world is between father and son! Even though you are like this, even if you don't understand, I still want to have a good talk with you!"

When Liu Zhao saw Liu Yan's true feelings before, the fear in his heart was much less, and he even felt a little friendly.

"The world has spread the rumor that I inherited the throne from the Zhou Dynasty. This is a form of plunder and goes against morality. Therefore, God has taken away your wisdom as a punishment!"

"Zhou? Western Zhou? Eastern Zhou? Or Wu Zetian's Zhou?" Liu Zhao's mind quickly connected.

But I was relieved in an instant. This was a parallel world, certainly not what I could see in my history books.

"In ancient times, Cheng Yuan passed the throne to Duan Yu. For thousands of years, this abdication has been regarded as a good story, but it is actually all whitewashing. Duan Yu's scheming is far superior to mine. If it weren't for his scheming, how could Cheng Yuan, with three sons, have handed over the throne to others?"

Of course Liu Zhao didn’t understand who Cheng Yuan and Duan Yu were?

From the perspective of human nature, which king, prince, general or minister in ancient times would not want his son to inherit his throne!

There is no reason to just give it away so easily!

Isn't it just using dirty means to seize and plunder, and then whitewashing it in history books to make it look bright and glorious!

"Take the founding emperor of the previous dynasty, Wei Chang, for example. He also took the throne from Xia Xuan, asking for it three times and then giving it up three times, euphemistically calling it abdication! It was nothing more than a way to silence the world's gossip!"

"It's common for the world to change hands. I don't believe that God has taken away your wisdom!"

Liu Zhao heard clearly what Liu Yan meant, that is, the Jing Dynasty should have been seized by Liu Yan from the descendants of Wei Chang, and someone was gossiping!

But how to get it, I really don't know.

Isn't it because I asked and declined three times that people all over the world have something to say?

So he continued to look at Liu Yan stupidly.

Liu Yan glanced at him and continued, "General Tang Dan of the Left Guard recently met a monk named Shili. He said that there is great wisdom in the Buddhist scriptures. You have a pure nature. If you can recite ten volumes of the sutra, your wisdom will naturally be awakened!"

"You called me here so that I can chant scriptures and open my wisdom?"

Liu Zhao thought to himself.

How boring that would be!

Is this Buddha Sakyamuni?

You are really capable, you can even travel through a parallel universe?

Could it be that he himself is a time traveler?

It's not impossible, it's just that someone traveled through time before me and even the Buddhist scriptures were brought in.

If this is the case, we have to admire the ability of Sakyamuni.

But this happened to be a blessing in disguise. I can use this opportunity to slowly return to normal, and there is a high probability that I can keep my position as the crown prince!

Liu Zhao made up some ideas in his mind, but he found them ridiculous when he thought about them.

"Tang Dan has prepared ten scriptures for you to read. From today on, he will teach you how to recite them. You must study carefully!"

"Yes!"

Liu Zhao couldn't help but agree.

"Send Tang Dan in!"

Seeing that his son agreed readily, Liu Yan immediately gave instructions to Zhang Hong who was waiting outside the door.

Tang Dan seemed to be well prepared. He walked in quickly with a large pile of books in his arms. He knelt on the floor and kowtowed while holding the books.

"Hurray!"

After saying that, he looked at Liu Zhao again.

"See Your Highness!"

Liu Zhao looked at Tang Dan, who was wearing a green hat and green clothes. He looked to be about forty years old.

But he has a very strong body, no wonder he is the General of the Left Guard!

However, I really don’t know what the official position of this Left Guard General is!

Since he has the word "general" in his name, he must be a soldier!

Let the soldiers teach you how to chant?

This!

That’s not appropriate!

Then I saw the scriptures in Tang Dan's arms, so many that they looked like a mountain!

Liu Zhao couldn't help but take a breath of cold air!

Even Sakyamuni himself wouldn’t be able to finish reading this!

"Get up! Present the book!"

Liu Yan said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Tang Dan then stood up, put the book in Zhang Hong's hands, and stepped aside.

Zhang Hong put the book on the table in front of Liu Yan again.

Liu Yan picked up a copy of the "Zhenghui Fajing" and opened the first page.

"The Buddha said: All living beings suffer, and those without wisdom suffer the most. Once you have the Dharma of karma, wisdom will naturally arise!"

He flipped through it again and put the book down.

"Tang Dan, are there so many?"

"Your Majesty, these are only the Sutra of the Right Wisdom Dharma. The rest of the Buddhist scriptures will have to wait until the Sutra of the Right Wisdom Dharma is finished, and then Shili will send someone to deliver them!"

Liu Yan frowned and looked through the ten volumes of the Zhenghui Dharma Sutra.

Liu Zhao probably knows less than a hundred characters, and the Buddhist scriptures are difficult to read. How long will it take him to finish reading them?

Liu Zhao was also very speechless. According to his previous IQ, it was simply impossible for him to finish reading these ten scriptures!

It is sheer nonsense that Monk Shili dares to say that wisdom will be achieved after reciting ten Buddhist scriptures!

This means that it’s your fault if you can’t finish reading it!

Then if he becomes less intelligent, then it has nothing to do with Shili?

This monk seems very cunning!

Did he want to take the opportunity to get close to the emperor and make a difference politically?

Or do you want to take this opportunity to promote Buddhism and spread Buddhist teachings?

Liu Yan said coldly at this time: "Given the prince's current situation, how do you feel about finishing reading this Zhenghui Fajing?"

"Your Majesty, although Shili said so, I believe he has his reasons! Your Highness is still in his youth. With encouragement and guidance, even if it takes ten years, you can recite the whole book a year!"

Liu Yan frowned: "Now it seems that this is the only way!"

Although he said this, Liu Yan certainly didn't want to believe it in his heart.

But then I thought, let's give it our all. My son has nothing to do all day, so it would be good if he could learn a few words!

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Tang Dan was happy in his heart. He had to rely on himself to be able to flatter a horse without getting kicked by the horse!

"Then you will accompany the Crown Prince in his study in the East Palace. You must not slack off!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Tang Dan was so happy!

The emperor has great trust in himself!

Get the prince to the study to study. Whether he studies or not is a small matter!

The key is that you can use this to gain the emperor's trust!

Once this stupid emperor ascends the throne, won’t I be the most powerful minister?

The stupid emperor can't take care of things, so doesn't that mean he has the final say in the world?

Although the Crown Princess is quite scheming, she is a woman after all. It would be easy for him to control her!

By then, not only will you have power over the world!

It can even replace it!

Tang Dan didn't dare to think about it anymore!

"Zhao'er, can you read?"

Liu Yan still asked Liu Zhao with concern, and called him so affectionately that Liu Zhao's heart trembled.

Liu Zhao nodded. It would be very difficult to finish reading this.

But you can pretend to read it yourself!

Since Liu Yan believed that chanting scriptures could make him smarter, why not take the opportunity to become smarter?

It's absolutely flawless!

It's just that the details still need to be carefully considered.

"Go! Study hard!"

After Liu Yan finished speaking, he picked up the memorial and began to read it.

Tang Dan bowed to Liu Yan again, then left with the ten scriptures in his arms.

Liu Zhao pretended to know nothing and just sat on the stool.

Zhang Hong came over and pulled Liu Zhao.

"Your Highness, please return to the palace!"

Liu Zhao then stood up and left without any greeting.
