How can we tell that Tang Seng was truly in love during the stage of the Daughter Kingdom?
In the play, the beautiful and fragrant queen compared herself to a "national treasure", and when she asked Tang Monk to view the "national treasure", she looked at him affectionately. Tang Seng was very nervous, lowered his head, did not dare to look directly, and explained that "the four elements are empty". When he said this, the queen refused and said: "If you close your eyes tightly, you still say that the four elements are empty? If you really have all the four elements, why don't you dare to open your eyes and look at me? If you really open your eyes and look at me, I don't believe you will Eyes are empty." This provocation really worked, because when he opened his eyes he did see the queen's beauty, and his eyes were not empty.

Tang Monk could not argue. After taking a look at it quietly, he did not dare to look directly. He looked shocked at the lie, and quickly lowered his head and replied, "Amitabha." These few words seemed to answer the question, but they contained too much truth. In fact, in Wu Cheng'en's works, Tang Seng is a kind man of flesh and blood. He not only loves every flower and tree, but also has kind thoughts in his heart even for monsters who do all kinds of evil. Therefore, how could he have the heart to hurt such a beautiful and affectionate woman? What? Of course, just because he converted to Buddhism and had the important task of obtaining scriptures from the West, Tang Seng must have been tangled in his heart at this moment.

Beauty, love, the power of a king, glory and preciousness...the temptation is too great. At this moment, Tang Seng was very nervous, and he was having a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, and he was even sweating on his head. But in the face of the King of his daughter's country desperately trying to persuade him to stay, Tang Seng still said sadly: "I have pledged myself to Buddhism in this life. If there is a fate in the next life..." At this moment, I believe that Tang Seng was moved, and he also longed to be with him. This beautiful and beautiful beauty spent her whole life in love.
In fact, Tang Seng was not a cold-blooded man. While he and the queen were admiring flowers and feeding fish in the back garden, Tang Seng enjoyed this wonderful time. It's just that he was very entangled in his heart, and he hesitated to speak several times. In the play, I saw Tang Seng's reluctance in the face of the queen's tenderness, but I firmly believe that he is not a person who covets glory. After thinking about it, Tang Seng became more determined to go west to seek scriptures and politely declined the queen's love.

Yes, although Tang Seng was a little tempted, I don’t think it’s because he’s not firm in his mind. Instead, I think it’s because he’s kind, upright, responsible, and affectionate. true temperament. Because Tang Seng made a promise to Guanyin and the King of Tang first, he refused all kinds of temptations and still insisted on his beliefs, which further showed that he was a male god with flesh and blood and emotions.
