Emperor Tai Shi, dressed in a Daoist robe, lay on his jade bed, "Dreamed of Kunlun Mountain, immortals, Spirit Ginseng, Jia Mu..."
Kneeling before the couch, Qin Xiao said with concern, "This son has heard that there is a True Buddha in the West, and emissaries have already been sent to seek him out. Father Emperor, please take good care of your health. If the Daoist path cannot grant longevity, perhaps the Buddhist path can?"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Emperor Tai Shi coughed violently a few times, gasping for breath, his complexion looked as if it was dusted with gold powder, glinting under the candlelight.
"There's no such thing as a True Buddha in the world, it must be a trick of the Buddhists. However, you may liaise with Buddhism if you wish, so that when you ascend the throne, your first task will be to promote Buddhism over Daoism. The Daoism in Qing Kingdom is too ingrained to eradicate!"
"I will heed Father Emperor's teachings."
