### [37.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.37.63)

四年。勅沙門慧暅（音亘）於樂遊園為七廟講大品般若。齊使崔武子來朝。上以沙門洪偃才德兩優。命為館伴。武子每與語輒大歎服。朝議欲加偃冠。師絕食自誓。帝乃止。

> In the fourth year, an imperial decree ordered the śramaṇa Huigeng to lecture on the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā for the Seven Ancestral Temples at Leyou Park. Cui Wuzi, an envoy from Qi, came to court. Because the śramaṇa Hongyan was superior in both talent and virtue, the emperor ordered him to serve as the guest attendant. Whenever Wuzi spoke with him, he would sigh in great admiration. The court deliberated over placing an official cap on Hongyan \[to return him to secular office\], but the master fasted and swore an oath \[against it\], so the emperor desisted.
