Chang'an City, Imperial Palace.
Li Shimin was sitting quietly on his throne. Though the locust plague had finally been resolved, a matter of great joy, Li Shimin couldn't feel happy. His mind kept dwelling on the scene of Xuanzang leaving with Gaoyang.
"Alas..." After a long while, Li Shimin sighed deeply in his heart and shook his head silently.
To the Great Tang, he might be a qualified Emperor, but to Gaoyang, perhaps he wasn't a qualified father?
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Buddha has manifested at the Great Buddha Temple!" Just as Li Shimin was alone, wallowing in his guilt, suddenly, a eunuch hurried in and shouted loudly to him.
Immortals and Buddhas were always mysterious and revered, and deities like the Tathagata and the Great Jade Emperor were highly exalted. Normally, even the descent of an immortal was enough to cause a sensation, let alone the Tathagata.
Hearing this, Li Shimin abruptly stood up and rushed out of the hall.
