Emperor Gao of Qi personally served the young sovereign and was constantly fraught with anxiety over unforeseen perils. He frequently consulted Fayuan, who said, "Matters will be settled in the seventh month hereafter." It turned out just as he said. When Emperor Gao ascended the throne, he served Fayuan with the etiquette accorded a master. When Emperor Wu succeeded to the throne, he likewise showed complete reverence as to a master. In the second year of the Yongming reign-era, Fayuan suffered the loss of his elder brother and petitioned to return to his home village. A short time after he reached his village, imperial decrees arrived repeatedly. When Fayuan later emerged, he rested at Xiangggong Temple. The imperial carriage made a personal visit, descending upon the temple to inspect and console him. Fayuan said, "My foot ailment has not yet subsided; I am unable to meet you." The Emperor then turned his procession and departed. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 13.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.13.77) - [Next: 13.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.13.79) - [Up: 13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.13) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059~en-mt.13.78) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.13.78](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.13.78) · Pramāṇa
