When the two officials had finished their bows, they rose and stood attending on either side, saying, "Sworn Brother, my lord, ten thousand congratulations are due you!" Sanzang said, "I am a monk who has left the household life — what congratulations could there be for me?" The Grand Preceptor bowed low and said, "This place is the Womanland of Western Liang; in this kingdom there has never, from ancient times, been a single man.,,。」:「,!Now, by good fortune, my lord the sworn brother has descended upon us, and I, obeying my Queen's decree, have come especially to seek your hand in marriage." Sanzang said, "Merciful Heaven, merciful Heaven!,,,?」:「,,,,。I, a poor monk, have come alone to your honored land, with no wife or children accompanying me — only these three unruly disciples. I do not know which marriage match you are seeking?" The postmaster said, "This official just now went into court to report, and our Queen was overjoyed, saying that last night she had an auspicious dream, in which the golden screen burst into brilliant color and the jade mirror shone with radiant light.,,,,。Since the sworn brother is a fine son of China, the Superior Kingdom, our Queen is willing to give the wealth of her whole kingdom to take my lord the sworn brother as her consort, so that he may sit facing south and be styled sovereign, while our Queen herself becomes the empress.,,。」,。She has issued a decree that the Grand Preceptor should act as matchmaker and this official preside over the marriage — and so we have come especially to seek this match." Hearing this, Sanzang lowered his head and said nothing.:「,。The Grand Preceptor said, "When a great man meets his moment, he must not let it slip by.,,,。A match such as this, offered by marriage into royalty — though such things exist under Heaven, one where the whole wealth of a kingdom is entrusted to him is truly rare in this world.,。」。I beg the sworn brother to consent at once, so that I may properly report back." The elder grew all the more dumbstruck.

Wukong said, "The Grand Preceptor speaks reasonably.,,。There is no need for us to make difficulties — we are willing to leave our master behind to become your sovereign's husband.,。Quickly renew our passport and send us off to the west.,,,。」:「。」:「,。Once we have fetched the scriptures and are on our way back, we will come here to pay respects to our master's in-laws, beg travel funds, and return to Great Tang." The Grand Preceptor and the postmaster bowed to Wukong and said, "We are deeply grateful to you, teacher, for so graciously bringing this about."

The Grand Preceptor said, "Certainly, certainly — I shall have the feast prepared at once." The postmaster and the Grand Preceptor, overjoyed, went back to report to the Queen; we need say no more of that for now.

,:「,,,,?Now to speak of Tang Sanzang: he grabbed hold of Wukong and scolded him, "You wretched monkey, you'll be the death of me! How could you say such a thing, telling me to marry into this place while the rest of you go worship the Buddha in the west?。」:「,,,,。」:「?」:「,,。I would rather die than agree to such a thing." Wukong said, "Master, set your mind at ease — how could old Monkey not know your true nature? It is only that, having come to this place and met with these people, we had no choice but to turn their own scheme to our advantage." Sanzang said, "What do you mean by 'turning their scheme to our advantage'?" Wukong said, "If you had flatly refused them, they would not have renewed our passport, nor let us go on our way.,,,,?And what if their good will had turned to malice, and they had ordered their people to cut the flesh from your body to make scent-bags of it — how could that have ended well for us?,,,,,。We would certainly have had to unleash our powers for subduing demons and sweeping away monsters, and you know how heavy our hands are and how fierce our weapons are — the moment we so much as raised a hand, every soul in this entire kingdom would be struck dead.,,;Though they may be obstructing our way, they are not demons or evil spirits, but human beings of a whole kingdom, after all;,:,,。」,:「,。and you yourself have always been a man of kindness and compassion, never harming a single living soul on the road — if we were to strike down countless innocent people, how could your heart bear it? That truly would be an unrighteous act." Hearing this, Sanzang said, "Wukong, this reasoning is excellent indeed.,,,?But I fear that once the Queen has taken me inside, she will wish to perform the rites of husband and wife — how could I bear to lose my primal yang and ruin the virtuous conduct of our Buddhist faith?,?」:「,,。To let my true essence be spent, and fall from my station among the followers of our teaching?" Wukong said, "Once the marriage is agreed to today, she will certainly send her carriage out of the city with full imperial ceremony to receive you.,,,。You must not decline any further — simply mount her phoenix carriage and dragon chariot, ascend to the jeweled hall, and sit facing south.,,,,。Ask the Queen to bring out her royal seal and credentials, and have us three brothers summoned into the court, so that our passport may be stamped with the seal; then ask the Queen to sign it with her own hand and affix her mark, and hand it over to us.,,。At the same time, have her arrange a banquet, both to celebrate her joyous union with you and to see us off on our journey.,,,。Once the banquet is over, have her order the procession made ready again, saying it is only to escort the three of us out of the city — and that she will return afterward to be joined with you.,,。In this way we shall keep both ruler and ministers pleased, with no thought of hindering us and no wicked intentions arising.,,,;Then, just as they are escorting us out of the city, you get down from the dragon carriage and phoenix chariot, and have Sha Seng attend on you and help you mount the white horse;,,。and old Monkey will then cast a body-binding spell, so that ruler and ministers alike are unable to move, while the rest of us go straight on along the main road westward.,,,。After we have traveled a day and a night, I will recite an incantation to release the spell, letting the ruler and her ministers awaken and return to the city.,。In this way, first, we do no harm to their lives, and second, we do no damage to your true spirit.『』,?」,,,,:「。」,。This is what is called the scheme of 'a false marriage to slip the net' — is this not a plan that serves both purposes at once, to everyone's benefit?" Hearing this, Sanzang felt as though waking from drunkenness, as though rousing from a dream; his joy banished all his cares, and he thanked Wukong over and over, saying, "I am deeply grateful for my worthy disciple's excellent plan." The four of them, of one mind and purpose, fell to discussing it together; we need say no more of that for now.

却说唐长老一把扯住行者,骂道:「你这猴头,弄杀我也,怎么说出这般话来,教我在此招婚,你们西天拜佛?我就死也不敢如此。」行者道:「师父放心,老孙岂不知你性情,但只是到此地,遇此人,不得不将计就计。」三藏道:「怎么叫做将计就计?」行者道:「你若使住法儿不允他,他便不肯倒换关文,不放我们走路。倘或意恶心毒,喝令多人,割了你肉,做甚么香袋啊,我等岂有善报?一定要使出降魔荡怪的神通,你知我们的手脚又重,器械又凶,但动动手儿,这一国的人,尽打杀了。他虽然阻当我等,却不是怪物妖精,还是一国人身;你又平素是个好善慈悲的人,在路上一灵不损:若打杀无限的平人,你心何忍,诚为不善了也。」三藏听说,道:「悟空,此论最善。但恐女主招我进去,要行夫妇之礼,我怎肯丧元阳,败坏了佛家德行?走真精,坠落了本教人身?」行者道:「今日准了亲事,他一定以皇帝礼,摆驾出城接你。你更不要推辞,就坐他凤辇龙车,登宝殿,面南坐下。问女王取出御宝印信来,宣我们兄弟进朝,把通关文牒用了印,再请女王写个手字花押,佥押了交付与我们。一壁厢教摆筵宴,就当与女王会喜,就与我们送行。待筵宴已毕,再叫排驾,只说送我们三人出城,回来与女王配合。哄得他君臣欢悦,更无阻挡之心,亦不起毒恶之念。却待送出城外,你下了龙车凤辇,教沙僧伺候左右,伏侍你骑上白马;老孙却使个定身法儿,教他君臣人等皆不能动,我们顺大路只管西行。行得一昼夜,我却念个咒,解了术法,还教他君臣们苏醒回城。一则不伤了他的性命,二来不损了你的元神。这叫做『假亲脱网』之计,岂非一举两全之美也?」三藏闻言,如醉方醒,似梦初觉,乐以忘忧,称谢不尽道:「深感贤徒高见。」四众同心合意,正自商量不题。
,,:「,。」,,,,,:「,?」:「,,。Now to speak of the Grand Preceptor and the postmaster: without waiting to be summoned, they went straight to the court, before the white jade steps, and reported, "Your Majesty's fine dream has proven most accurate — the joy of fish and water is at hand." Hearing this report, the Queen rolled up the pearl curtain, came down from her dragon bed, parted her cherry lips to show her silver teeth, and asked with a smiling, tender voice, "Worthy minister, when you saw the sworn brother, what did he say?" The Grand Preceptor said, "Your servants went to the post-house, and after paying our respects to the sworn brother, at once explained in full our request for marriage.,,,。The sworn brother still had words of refusal, but fortunately his eldest disciple readily consented on his behalf, willing to leave his master behind to become Your Majesty's consort and sit facing south as sovereign.,;He asked only that the passport be renewed first, so that the three disciples might be sent off to the west;,,。」:「?」:「,。once they have fetched the scriptures and returned, they will come here to pay their respects to their master's in-laws and beg travel funds to return to Great Tang." The Queen said with a smile, "Did the sworn brother have anything else to say?" The Grand Preceptor reported, "The sworn brother said nothing himself, but is willing to be matched with Your Majesty.,。」It is only that his second disciple asks first for a cup of the betrothal wine at a feast."

Sanzang said, "This poor monk eats only vegetarian food, but I have not yet forsworn wine.,。」I need only a few cups of vegetarian wine, and let my second disciple have some as well."

The Queen said, "Shall I add their Dharma names for you?" Sanzang said, "Whatever pleases Your Majesty."

Hearing this, the Queen was startled out of her wits and, her face draining of color, seized hold of Tang Seng and said, "Imperial Brother, I am willing to give you the wealth of an entire kingdom and take you as my husband; tomorrow you were to ascend the throne and be proclaimed sovereign, and I was willing to be your consort — we have already eaten through the whole wedding banquet, so how can you now go back on your word?" Hearing this, Bajie flew into a fit, twisting his snout wildly and flapping his ears about, and burst in front of the carriage shouting, "Why should we monks be husband and wife with you, you powdered skeleton?。」,,。Let our master go on his way!" Seeing him behaving so wildly and hideously, the Queen was frightened out of her soul and fell back into the carriage.,。Sha Seng then pulled Sanzang out of the crowd and helped him mount his horse.

What it’s about
At the capital of Western Liang, the female officials marvel at the four male travelers. The queen sees Tripitaka and decides to make him her husband, offering him the throne and proposing that his disciples continue west without him. Bajie is delighted by the kingdom's women and comforts, but Tripitaka is appalled. Wukong advises him to appear to accept the marriage so that their travel documents can be endorsed and the party can leave the city without violence.
Tripitaka follows the plan through a royal banquet and public betrothal, struggling to conceal his fear and commitment to celibacy. Once the passports are stamped, he escorts his disciples to the gate and then attempts to depart with them. The disappointed queen and her retinue pursue, but before the deception can be settled a female monster creates a whirlwind, seizes Tripitaka and carries him to her cave. A political and erotic temptation is abruptly replaced by supernatural abduction.
When it was written 背景
Western Liang is often called the Women's Kingdom because women fill every civic role and men are absent from ordinary reproduction. The queen is not initially a demon but a legitimate sovereign whose proposal tests Tripitaka through wealth, intimacy and authority rather than threatened death. Wukong's strategy asks the truthful monk to practice expedient deception, exposing tension between immediate vows and the practical pursuit of scripture. The chapter also distinguishes female rule from monstrous desire: the court can negotiate, stamp documents and honor procedure, whereas the creature at the gate simply takes possession. Learners should keep those two sources of temptation separate as the episode changes direction.
