Chapter V: Rights Transactions

Soon after the Buddhists left Heaven and returned to the Great Leiyin Temple, the Heavenly Court also sent envoys to visit the Great Leiyin Temple.

The envoys of the Heavenly Court, led by Tai Baixing, brought a large number of rare treasures to Buddhism to enhance the friendship between the Heavenly Court and Buddhism, and the envoys of the Heavenly Court conveyed the wishes of the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor to the Buddhist people. After the Heavenly Court envoys conveyed their meanings, they ordered Ah Ao and Jia Ye to arrange accommodation and meals for the Heavenly Court envoys. Let the heavenly court come to make them rest for a day, and then Ah Tai and Jia Ye will lead them to see Rulai.

On the day of the meeting, Rulai was alone in the main hall to receive Tai Bai Xing. The main hall is guarded by a large number of arhats and vajras. When Tai Bai Xing entered the main hall, the door of the main hall was suddenly closed, cutting off everything inside and outside the hall.

Rulai whispered a Buddha name and said, "I didn't expect that the dignified Jade Emperor would even have to sneak in and out of the heavenly court. It seems that you are a leader in the Heavenly Court. "It seems that you, the head of Buddhism, also have two things. But this is also worthy of cooperation with the United Nations. "This Tai Bai Xing transformed, revealing the true body of the Jade Emperor. This time, in order to ensure that he could join forces with Rulai to eliminate the "Three Qings", he decided to come in person. And in order to reduce the risk of being discovered by the "Sanqing", he asked Tai Baixing to pretend to be him, and stayed alone in the dormitory, and said that he was unwell and could not go to court, and in the dormitory, he did not see anyone. It's just to buy a few days. In fact, the change in the appearance of the Jade Emperor is seamless, but if you can see through the changes of the Jade Emperor, it is not that you can see through the spells of the Jade Emperor, but that everyone's personality and temperament are different, especially those who have been leaders or are used to being pampered.

When Rulai heard the Jade Emperor's very domineering words, he was furious in his heart, his face became very cold, and he said unhappily: "Don't forget where this is." This is our Buddhist Da Lei Yin Temple, but it is our territory. If you want to get out alive, be careful when you speak! If you want you and me to cooperate, show some sincerity. ”

After hearing this, the Jade Emperor smiled lightly and said, "If you come, you have forgotten the difference in strength between the Pure Land of Bliss and the Heavenly Court. "What the Jade Emperor said is not polite to you, because he knows very well what the advantages of his side are.

"If I kill you, they should be very happy. Everything you have will disappear with it. Rulai reminded the Jade Emperor that there was still a "Sanqing" above him who was looking forward to his death.

"I've already sent the order to the Platinum Star. If I can't return within five days, then he will give me an order for the Heavenly Court to attack the Pure Land of Bliss. When the time comes, let's break the net together. Anyway, the 'Three Qings' have already begun to abandon me. When the time comes, I will have nothing. Then I might as well take the opportunity to pull a cushion. ”

After hearing this, Rulai's face was always pale. I didn't expect the Jade Emperor's scheming to be so heavy. He even deceived the lamp. It is no wonder that he was able to take away the power little by little in the hands of the "Three Qings", and shake the prestige of the "Three Qings" little by little, so that the "Three Qings" did not dare to abandon him easily. This time, I really feel like I've lured a wolf into the room. If he kills the Jade Emperor now, he will definitely make the "Sanqing" furious, because no matter how much the "Sanqing" hates the Jade Emperor, he will not let him die at the hands of others. Because the Jade Emperor was cultivated by the three of them, and he was in a high position, even if he was deposed and killed by other outsiders, it would be equivalent to slapping them in the face. Besides, the Jade Emperor has not been deposed by them, and dying like this will make the three of them even more embarrassed. And with the identity of the "Three Qings", it is impossible to swallow the slap in the face, and nothing will happen. If such a slap in the face is swallowed, who will obey them, and who will listen to them. Moreover, their Heavenly Court was originally snatched from Hongjun's hands, which made many people resist them and prevent them from committing crimes, preventing this kind of person who even killed his teacher from harming them. Therefore, these factors add up, if the Jade Emperor is killed, the "Three Qings" have to raise troops to besiege and kill the Pure Land of Bliss in order to win the hearts of the people. Even if they knew that they would lose both, the "Three Qings" had to send troops. Otherwise, the "Three Clears" will make everyone in the heavenly court feel cold. Because the Jade Emperor has managed the Heavenly Court for them for so long, there has been no problem of disturbing the foundation of the Heavenly Court, and those small problems can be solved quickly. Therefore, the Jade Emperor is equivalent to a hero with endless credit. If the Jade Emperor is killed and the "Three Qings" are unmoved, everyone will think that they are just selfish and greedy for power. In that way, even if everyone obeys their orders on the surface, they will be offended day and night behind the scenes. Because not remembering the heroes and abandoning the heroes is the behavior of a tyrant and a faint king, such a court can only exist for a while, not forever. If Rulai kills the Jade Emperor, maybe "Sanqing" is like him, and he also has the heart to devour the other party. The "Three Qings" can take this opportunity to attack the Pure Land of Bliss under the banner of avenging the Jade Emperor. And if Rulai arrests the Jade Emperor, it will also allow the "Three Qings" to find a reasonable excuse to regain control of the Heavenly Court, and then send troops to attack the Pure Land of Bliss, and it is even possible that the "Three Qings" will secretly send someone to assassinate the Jade Emperor and blame Rulai, then it is equivalent to making the Pure Land of Bliss and the Heavenly Court incompatible. Even if it is Rulai to explain that the Jade Emperor was not killed by them. No one will believe that. Even if some people believe it, it is impossible for the "Three Qings" to withdraw from the army. Rebellion will make the people of the Heavenly Court think that the people of the Pure Land of Bliss are afraid of the Heavenly Court. The Jade Emperor's way of breaking the jar made Rulai a headache. The Jade Emperor's way of relying on the skin made Rulai angry, but he couldn't attack. Because there are still many taboos. Rulai actually wanted to join forces with the Jade Emperor to kill the "Three Qings" and expand to the east. When his Buddhism grows, he is no longer afraid of heaven. At that time, he will be able to fight for more things from the Heavenly Court, and seize more things.

Rulai's mind suddenly turned again, came up with a plan, and said: "Then in that case, I might as well arrest you and send you to the three old guys of 'Sanqing'." Tell all your conspiracies to 'Sanqing'. I would get a lot of benefit from them that way. As soon as he spoke, he pushed back the words of the Jade Emperor without showing weakness.

Hearing Rulai's words, the Jade Emperor's face finally changed, and he couldn't think of what Rulai said was true or false. However, if he is like this, he will indeed kidnap a traitor in front of the "Three Qings" in order to get safe benefits, and use it to exchange benefits with the "Three Qings". Because the "Three Qings" are the real rulers of the Heavenly Court. But if Rulai wants to get more benefits, then Rulai has to choose to cooperate with him. Because with the character of "Sanqing", he told them about the betrayal of the Jade Emperor. The three of them will only send some rare treasures to thank Rulai, and it is impossible to divide a part of the eastern soil to Rulai. Because these are all things that the three of them have worked so hard to snatch from Hongjun, and have ruled for so long. If Rulai only wants to find a big traitor for the "Three Qings", this condition will be exchanged for some opportunities to expand to the east from the "Three Qings". That's just ridiculous. These three old guys who are extremely greedy for power and interests are all good if they don't split. If Rulai proposed to the "Three Qings" that they should expand their missions to the east, it would make the "Three Qings" feel as if they had been forced into their homes by a group of robbers, burned, killed, and looted. But it's not the same if you come to work with yourself. Heaven and the land of the East Earth are originally the things of the "Three Clears", and if he is deposed by the "Three Clears", he will have nothing. But if he can reach a win-win agreement with Rulai, and he can exchange some human resources for the eternal position of the head of the Heavenly Court, how can he not be happy? And if you give too much, not only will you not agree, but the rest of the Heavenly Court will definitely disagree. Otherwise, when most of the other people in the Heavenly Court oppose their decision, there will be another internal war. In this case, the entire Heavenly Court will still be destroyed, and he will still have nothing, and the biggest winner will be Rulai. If he wins this civil war, and Heavenly Court is only an empty shell, then it is not interesting and useless for him to sit in the position of the leader of Heavenly Court. When the time comes, if Rulai falls into the well again and destroys the heavenly court, he will still have nothing. Therefore, the Jade Emperor was constantly thinking in his heart, how to use the smallest interests to pay, and persuade Rulai to help him eliminate the "Three Qings". And Rulai is thinking about whether to help the Jade Emperor or not, which side to help, and how to get the greatest benefits.

On the main hall, the invisible energy emitted by the Jade Emperor and Rulai collided with each other, producing a strong air current, which made the wind and clouds change color. Just when the two sides raised their momentum to the highest point and were about to break out, the Jade Emperor suddenly laughed and said, "You won't do this." If you tie me back, your purpose will also be known to those three old families at the same time. When the time comes, they will always be on your lookout. Your chances will be very slim. You just said that you wanted to tie me back to the 'Sanqing', but you just wanted to get more benefits from me. Now I can tell you that if you help me win the Heavenly Court and get rid of the 'Three Qings', I can not only let you preach in the Eastern Lands, but I can also put the Huangquan Yin Division into your six realms of reincarnation, but I need to send someone to help take care of it. What about these conditions?" the Jade Emperor added another benefit to Rulai, because there were too many yin ghosts and ghosts in the Huangquan Yin Division, and Heavenly Court did not have the ability to reincarnate those yin ghosts and ghosts, and he was afraid that those yin ghosts and ghosts would break through the ghost gate and break into the human world to disturb the lower realm. However, Heavenly Court could not wipe out all the Yin Spirits and ghosts in the Huangquan Yin Division, because those were all relatives of mortals. If those ghosts and ghosts are wiped out, when the time comes, those mortals will definitely rebel against the Heavenly Court, just like when Hongjun led the mortals to overthrow the Heavenly Emperor. At that time, Heavenly Court will be in danger. Therefore, it is better to separate Huangquan Yin Division from Buddhism. Buddhism has six reincarnations, which can allow some ghosts and ghosts to be reincarnated, reducing potential hidden dangers, and if there are any more ghosts and ghosts that harm people after reincarnation, Heaven can completely shift the responsibility to Buddhism. But after thinking about it for a while, he understood what the Jade Emperor meant, but he just smiled and immediately agreed to the Jade Emperor's proposal, agreeing to cooperate with the Jade Emperor to help the Jade Emperor eradicate the "Three Qings". Subsequently, he and the Jade Emperor began to formulate a detailed plan to deal with the "Three Qings".

But on the other side, the Heavenly Court was in chaos at this time. The Jade Emperor has not been to the court for several days, and he has not let the immortals enter his palace to visit the sick, and even the divine doctors are not allowed to enter. What the hell is this? Moreover, even the Jade Emperor's long-trusted Tai Bai Xing has disappeared, and there is no one else in the entire dormitory, except for a few fairies who come in and out. After this situation lasted for five days, the immortals were no longer willing to wait, those twists and turns had been piled up, the Jade Emperor would not go to court again, the entire heavenly court would be paralyzed, and even some people had already gone to the "Sanqing" to report and told the "Sanqing" about the events of the past few days. "Sanqing" was very angry after hearing this, the Jade Emperor actually dared to disappear without their consent, which made the faces of the three of them go anywhere. The three of them immediately hurried to the Jade Emperor's bedroom with a large wave of immortals, and sent someone to inform the Queen Mother to come to the Jade Emperor's bedroom quickly. The three of them wanted to ask the Jade Emperor Xingshi for their crimes.

When the "Sanqing" arrived at the Jade Emperor's dormitory, the door of the Jade Emperor's dormitory was still tightly closed. The "Sanqing" immediately sent Li Jing, the king of Tota, to shout. Li Jing, the Heavenly King of Tota, stepped forward with his exquisite pagoda and said: "Little Immortal Li Jing reports to Your Majesty, the three Heavenly Venerables of Yuan Shi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun and Daode Tianzun are already waiting outside the door, please open the door of the Jade Emperor to take over." "Even if he knew that the Jade Emperor was not in his bedroom, Li Jing didn't dare to be presumptuous, in case he was unlucky enough to be hated by the Jade Emperor, even if he had the support of the three Heavenly Venerables, he would have to shed his skin if he didn't die.

After a long time, I saw the door of the Jade Emperor's dormitory slowly open, but I saw Tai Baixing walking out of the dormitory alone, kneeling down and saluting the "Sanqing" and them. Suddenly, "Sanqing" trembled inexplicably in his heart, and suddenly tightened it, as if a big stone was pressed on his heart, he couldn't breathe, and at the same time, the back of his head was cold and swishing. It seems that what they feared is still happening. The Jade Emperor began to break out of their grasp. But they also understand that it is useless to be in a hurry. What they have to do now is to get the Jade Emperor back first.

They didn't let Tai Bai Xing get up, and as the head of the "Three Qings", Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun asked first: "Tai Bai Xing, are you guilty?!"

"Seeing this formation, Tai Bai Xing knew that he couldn't hide it. He immediately kowtowed and confessed: "Xiao Xian confesses! Xiao Xian confesses! Obey the three Heavenly Venerables." ”

Seeing this scene, Yuan Shi Tianzun was very happy in his heart, and thought: "Jade Emperor, you want to tease me, you are still a little tender." Wait until I have interrogated your henchmen and made your affairs public, and then I will clean you up. Then Yuan Shi Tianzun asked, "Do you know what crime you have committed?"

Tai Bai Xing bowed his head to the ground and said very sadly: "The little immortal sin can't cure the Jade Emperor's illness. ”

After hearing Tai Bai Xing's words, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun and Taiqing Daodao Tianzun who were on the side changed their expressions greatly, and they couldn't help but shout: "Bold! You connived at the Jade Emperor to go out without permission for many days and did not return, knowing that this kind of thing not only did not dissuade you, but also did not report it, and joined everyone to hide this matter with you, and also prevented us from knowing." You know you're sinning!"

Tai Bai Xing opened his mouth to plead: "Xiao Xian doesn't know from whom the three Heavenly Venerables learned about the rumor that 'the Jade Emperor went out privately for many days and did not return'. Just now, the Jade Emperor was still in the palace, and the Jade Emperor had just taken the medicine and went out for a walk. ”

Lingbao Tianzun said angrily: "Bastard thing, dare to quibble! Bring the insider up and confront the Tai Bai Xing!" Lingbao Tianzun waved his hand and asked the immortal general behind him to bring the insider up. I saw a fairy being surrounded by a dry immortal and coming up to the front.

Tai Bai Xing could see at a glance that this fairy was the maid of the Seven Fairies. Tai Bai Xing was suddenly dizzy with anger, pointed at that Xian'e and roared: "Bastard thing! The Jade Emperor punished your master, and you actually dared to frame and retaliate against the Jade Emperor for your master." You don't have anything up or down. "Tai Bai Xing is indeed powerful, and his words have turned this Xian'e's ventilated message into a nonsense out of nothing.

Yuan Shi Tianzun saw that Tai Bai Xing still refused to confess, and he couldn't ask a reason in front of so many people. Yuan Shi Tianzun felt that his face was hot at this time, and he was very embarrassed. He was annoyed and said angrily: "It seems that you don't need to be punished, you won't be recruited." Come on, take it down for me!Bring it to the Lingxiao Treasure Palace!" Suddenly, a few immortal generals who wanted to be close to the "Sanqing" and wanted to behave in front of the "Sanqing" immediately stepped forward to take down the Tai Bai Xing, followed behind the three Yuan Shi Tianzun, and escorted the Tai Bai Xing to the Ling Xiao Treasure Palace, and listened to the Yuan Shi Tianzun and their interrogation.

On the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Yuan Shi Tianzun sat on the dragon chair, Lingbao Tianzun sat under his left hand, Daode Tianzun sat under his right hand, and Tai Bai Xing was tied and knelt on the ground. On both sides of the main hall, the gods and immortals are separated from each other within the limits of civil and military affairs.

When everything was ready, Yuan Shi Tianzun patted the dragon case and asked sharply: "Tai Bai Xing, in front of all the immortals, you might as well recruit it truthfully." Where the hell is the Jade Emperor?"

Tai Bai Xing spoke: "Xiao Xian doesn't understand what the three Heavenly Venerables mean. Your Majesty, he only said that he was walking around the heavenly court. He didn't tell the fairy where he was going. "Tai Bai Xing refused to admit that the Jade Emperor left the Heavenly Court without permission and went out.

This time, Yuan Shi Tianzun finally couldn't help it, and said angrily: "Bold, dare to be hard-mouthed! Come on, put a board on me, and beat me to death!" As soon as Yuan Shi Tianzun's voice fell, two immortal generals who had already been eyeing him came out with the board. These two people already have opinions about Tai Bai Xing on weekdays, but they can't find a chance to start on weekdays.

"Fight!" Yuan Shi Tianzun suddenly added, "No one is allowed to stop without my order." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun's forehead was now full of cold sweat. Since he handed over the power to the Jade Emperor, he hadn't asked about the affairs of Heavenly Court for a long time. Unexpectedly, there are also people among the immortals who have begun to be loyal to the Jade Emperor. Yuan Shi Tianzun began to worry in his heart, whether he had given too much power to the Jade Emperor, and whether he wanted to take back those power swords.

"Report to the three Venerables, Tai Bai Xing has fainted. "The immortals holding the board will stop the board in their hands and return to the three heavenly venerables.

"What!" The three Tianzun were shocked at the same time, they couldn't imagine that Tai Bai Xing was so hard, and in order to keep the secret for the Jade Emperor, he was beaten so badly and didn't squeak.

"Report, the Queen Mother has arrived. At this time, the news of the arrival of the Queen Mother came from outside the main hall. When Yuan Shi Tianzun wanted the immortals to carry the Tai Bai Xing away, the Queen Mother had already stepped into the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

"See the Queen Mother!" A group of immortals in the hall immediately saluted the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother nodded and asked everyone to calm down, and then she stepped forward to salute the three Heavenly Venerables: "Little Immortal meets the three Heavenly Venerables." ”

After Yuan Shi Tianzun asked the Queen Mother to get up, he immediately asked her: "Queen Mother, you came just in time." I heard that the Jade Emperor had gone out privately. Do you know where he went?"

When the Queen Mother heard Yuan Shi Tianzun ask, her heart suddenly burst. She had only heard this from the people around her on her way here, and she couldn't believe it was true. Because this is tantamount to doing something with the "Three Clears" and wanting to get rid of the control of the "Three Clears", in that case, the "Three Clears" they will definitely not let go of the two. At this time, when she heard Yuan Shi Tianzun ask about the whereabouts of the Jade Emperor, she didn't know how to answer, if she didn't know, then who would believe it. She and the Jade Emperor are husband and wife, who would believe that she doesn't know? If she does, it is even more nonsense. And now she doesn't know what Tai Bai Xing said to the three Tianzun before she came, if she says the wrong thing, then the matter will be a big deal, and she will let the Yuan Shi Tianzun and them seize the handle and take this opportunity to abolish the Jade Emperor. At that time, she will also be implicated. Therefore, the queen mother's heart was in a panic, and she was very distressed to think of countermeasures.

After a long time, the Yuan Shi Heavenly Court didn't see the Queen Mother reply, so she urged again: "Queen Mother, what are you grinding, do you have a ghost in your heart?"

"Back to Tianzun's words, Xiao Xian didn't have a ghost in his heart, he was just thinking about whether the Jade Emperor had told Xiao Xian where he was going. The Queen Mother paused for a moment and said, "A few days ago, the Jade Emperor had been reviewing the folds in his dormitory day and night, and he didn't have time to go to the Little Fairy Palace. So Xiaoxian didn't know where he went. However, Xiaoxian thought that maybe he felt too tired from work and went out for a walk. In fact, the Queen Mother didn't know what the Jade Emperor was doing some time ago, and she didn't know what Tai Bai Xing had just said, so she had to come up with this answer that seemed reasonable and would not make the three Heavenly Venerables resist.

"Bold, think of quibbles! What you said, Tai Bai Xing has already said. It has been several days since the Jade Emperor disappeared from the day, is this just a distraction? And these recitals are almost piled up. I don't think he wants to stay in this position anymore. Yuan Shi Tianzun was stunned by the soft answers of Tai Bai Xing and the Queen Mother. Even if he knew that the Jade Emperor went out privately, no one would accept him without evidence. Because if they are convicted without evidence this time, the other immortals will be afraid that they will be convicted without evidence next time, so they will let the immortals have a gap in their hearts, which will cause them to only care about self-preservation and ignore the life and death of others before all kinds of things.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the Queen Mother immediately knelt down and bowed her head and said, "Xiaoxian really doesn't know, please ask the three Tianzun Mingjian." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun slapped the dragon case and said angrily: "I don't know, I don't know! You are all a bunch of rice buckets, useless things." What does Heavenly Court want you people to do? Give you another day, if you don't get the Jade Emperor back, I'll ......" Before Yuan Shi Tianzun's words came out, he heard a report outside, "The Jade Emperor has arrived!"

I saw the Jade Emperor wearing a dragon robe and a dragon crown and walked into the Lingxiao Treasure Palace. He was followed by four burly men.

After the Jade Emperor entered the palace gate, he immediately rushed forward a few steps and "Sanqing" and they knelt and bowed, and said, "Xiaoxian greets the three Tianzun." Say hello to the three Heavenly Venerables. ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun and they saw that the Jade Emperor was a belly of fire, and they all forgot the existence of the Queen Mother. Yuan Shi Tianzun didn't let the Jade Emperor calm down and asked directly: "Jade Emperor, are you guilty?!"

When the Jade Emperor heard Yuan Shi Tianzun ask such a question, he was shocked, and hurriedly bowed his head and kowtowed: "The little immortal is guilty." Xiaoxian abandoned the government for many days, causing the stagnation of affairs everywhere, causing problems in the order of the Three Realms. The fairy knows that he is guilty......"

Yuan Shi Tianzun was very happy to see that the Jade Emperor confessed his guilt, he was afraid that if the Jade Emperor continued to say more, the Jade Emperor would escape, so he immediately interrupted the Jade Emperor's words and did not let the Jade continue to speak: "Since the Jade Emperor knows that he is guilty, then you can accept the sanction?"

The Jade Emperor also knew that the three Heavenly Venerables wanted to force him to death immediately, but he still tried to save himself. The Jade Emperor bowed his head and said, "Xiaoxian pleads guilty and accepts punishment. But before Tianzun punishes him, ask Tianzun to give him a chance to explain to himself. The Jade Emperor was only asking tentatively, and he wasn't sure that Yuan Shi Tianzun would give him a chance. Because the Jade Emperor is very Yuan Shi Tianzun, how much they hate themselves and are afraid of themselves.

Seeing the Jade Emperor like this, Lingbao Tianzun was happy in his heart, and said very simply: "You have confessed your sins, what else is there to say." Someone came, and the Jade Emperor was taken down and imprisoned. "Lingbao Tianzun can't let the Jade Emperor have a chance to turn over, otherwise I don't know when I will find this kind of opportunity. As soon as Lingbao Tianzun's voice fell, several heavenly generals immediately stepped forward to escort the Jade Emperor.

"Slow!" Daode Tianzun shouted, "If we don't let you explain, you will definitely not be reconciled, and everyone will not agree." In order to convince you, give yourself a chance to explain. "Actually, Daode Tianzun didn't want to give the Jade Emperor a chance to explain, but he didn't give the Jade Emperor a chance, he was afraid that the immortals of Heavenly Court would oppose it. Because those immortals will think that if they also violate the rules of heaven in the future, they will not have a chance to explain, what will happen. If they don't even have a chance to explain themselves, they will definitely be punished for a misdemeanor, so they will be panicked. This will bury hidden dangers deeply.

The Jade Emperor bowed and said, "The little immortal has thanked the three Heavenly Venerables. ”

"Say anything quickly, don't babble. Lingbao Tianzun said angrily.

The Jade Emperor seized this hard-won opportunity and hurriedly said, "During this time, Xiao Xian has been thinking about why there are so many problems in the Heavenly Court and the Human Realm. After racking his brains, Xiao Xian thought that there might be something wrong with us within the Heavenly Court, but this was just speculation, and there was no evidence to prove that what I was thinking was right. So in order to confirm whether my guess was correct, I went out to find evidence and find the answer. And I didn't report to the three Heavenly Venerables and went out without permission, because I didn't know whether my guess was right or wrong, and I rashly reported to the Tianzun and you, wouldn't it ruin your Qing cultivation? "In fact, these statements of the Jade Emperor are made up randomly. Although he had thought that someone would betray him and go out without permission and be interrogated, he definitely did not expect that the three Heavenly Venerables would come over to interrogate him together. And everyone in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall knew that this was made up, but it seemed that what the Jade Emperor said was also a little reasonable, because most of them had ghosts in their hearts, and they all felt that the Jade Emperor had said bad things and ugly things about them, and they all felt that the Jade Emperor knew something, and they were afraid that the fish would die in the net, so they didn't say anything against it, they all stared at the Jade Emperor's movements nervously, and listened to what the Jade Emperor said with their ears pricked up, they were afraid that the Jade Emperor would tell them about it.

Yuan Shi Tianzun also knew that the Jade Emperor was making things up, but they didn't dare to force the Jade Emperor too tightly, because some things between them and the Jade Emperor were also disgraceful. Yuan Shi Tianzun could only follow the Jade Emperor's words and asked, "Then what do you think are the problems within the Heavenly Court?"

The Jade Emperor said, "Xiao Xian thinks that there is something wrong with the management policy of the Heavenly Court. A lot of work has not been clearly divided, and no one strictly enforces the law, which has led to the accumulation of problems in the Heavenly Court, and the current chaotic situation has appeared. In fact, he also knew that it was the "Sanqing" who was behind his back, and many immortals were causing trouble all day long under their protection, but it was impossible for him to say it, because he couldn't tear up the face with the "Sanqing" yet.

Yuan Shi Tianzun asked again: "Then what do you say you should do?"

The Jade Emperor replied, "Xiao Xian thinks that we should start with the Heavenly Rules first, and change the unsuitable Heavenly Rules......"

Lingbao Tianzun interrupted the Jade Emperor's words and said, "Then you just stay in the Heavenly Court and change your heavenly rules, why do you have to go outside? You must be lying and quibbling." ”

The Jade Emperor hurriedly explained: "Three Heavenly Venerables, you don't know, if I don't go outside to take a look, and don't compare with others, how will I know what the problem is?"

Now that it has come to this, Yuan Shi Tianzun is no longer embarrassed by the Jade Emperor. If you insist on punishing the Jade Emperor, many people will be scared in their hearts. Yuan Shi Tianzun had no choice but to go down and say: "Since this is the case, we will not pursue this matter anymore." But I'll give you three days to finish this pile. Otherwise, we will punish you severely. Do you understand?"

In fact, the Jade Emperor knew that this was Yuan Shi Tianzun deliberately embarrassing him, but he had no reason to refute it. If after three days, these twists and turns are not dealt with, not only will he be severely punished, but all the immortals will think that he is incompetent, and when the three Yuan Shi Tianzun want to remove him, there will be no one to speak for him. But Yuan Shi Tianzun couldn't help but accept his words this time, because this was originally his own work. If he didn't take it, it was possible that Yuan Shi Tianzun would punish him now. The Jade Emperor hurriedly kowtowed and thanked, "Thank you Tianzun for your kindness." Xiaoxian will definitely live up to Tianzun's expectations. ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun nodded, then glanced at the four people behind the Jade Emperor, and asked the Jade Emperor: "Who are these people?" Yuan Shi Tianzun deliberately snubbed them.

"Hui Tianzun's words. These four are the talented people that Xiao Xian found when he went to the mortal world. After investigation, Xiaoxian found that they were good people, so he invited them to join my Heavenly Court and serve Heavenly Court. Several of them are also willing to join the Heavenly Court and serve the Heavenly Court. So I brought them back. Let me introduce it to you. This Taoist friend who holds a pipa, wears a white robe, and is covered with armor is a true person who holds the country, whose name means to bless sentient beings and protect the land; this Taoist friend who wears a green robe, wears armor, and holds a sword in his hand is a real person; this Taoist friend who wears a red robe, wears armor, and wraps a red dragon in his hand is a real person with wide eyes; and this Taoist friend who wears a green robe, holds a treasure umbrella in his right hand and holds a silver rat in his left hand, is a real person. These four Daoists are all people who can go to heaven and earth to create and participate in the exercises, so Xiao Xian invited them to serve the Heavenly Court. In fact, the words of the Jade Emperor are also half-truths and half-truths. These four are the four Vajra under the throne of Nyorai. In order to assassinate the "Three Qings" more certainly, Rulai came over to assist the Jade Emperor with the four King Kongs under his seat, and also to monitor the Jade Emperor and explore the path and understand the terrain of the Heavenly Court. The four of them are responsible for staring at the Jade Emperor to see if the Jade Emperor really wants to deal with the "Three Qings". If the Jade Emperor hesitated on this matter, they would immediately retreat.

When Yuan Shi Tianzun heard this, he smiled very happily and said, "Very good, the four Daoists can serve my Heavenly Court, and we are very happy......

Suddenly, Lingbao Tianzun interrupted Yuan Shi Tianzun's words and said, "This seat takes the liberty of asking, judging from the appearance of the four, how many people are not like me, why is this?"

When the Jade Emperor heard Lingbao Tianzun ask this question, his heart trembled, thinking that Lingbao Tianzun had seen something. At the same time, the hearts of the four King Kongs were also very nervous.

At this time, Daode Tianzun spoke up and said, "Senior brother, slow down. If we were suspicious of these four Daoists just because they looked like each other and shut them out, wouldn't it make everyone laugh at them? How did our Heavenly Court grow stronger? In my opinion, although these four Daoists had a peculiar appearance, they must also be the result of their extraordinary skills and cultivation of special exercises. If the four of you are truly willing to serve my Heavenly Court, this seat welcomes you. I wonder what the two senior brothers think?"

Yuan Shi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun glanced at Daode Tianzun, pondered for a long time and said, "What Senior Brother said is indeed reasonable, but we were negligent. If the four fellow Daoists are willing to serve my Heavenly Court, we are all very welcome. ”

The Jade Emperor immediately gave the four King Kongs a look and asked them to thank the three Heavenly Venerables. The four King Kongs glanced at each other and hesitated, but still knelt down and thanked the three Heavenly Venerables. Yuan Shi Tianzun waved them up. They retreated behind the Jade Emperor again.

Yuan Shi Tianzun asked the Jade Emperor again, "Jade Emperor, how do you arrange them?"

The Jade Emperor arched his hand and bent down and replied, "Xiao Xian hasn't thought about it yet, I originally wanted to return to the three Heavenly Venerables of the Ming Dynasty, and wait for you to discuss before making a decision." It's better to hit the sun than to change the day. Since the three Heavenly Venerables happen to be together, let the three Heavenly Venerables decide. "The Jade Emperor knew that Yuan Shi Tianzun was tempting, testing whether these four King Kongs were his people. The Jade Emperor was not stupid, and he easily pushed this problem to Yuan Shi Tianzun and them, and at the same time, it could also reduce Yuan Shi Tianzun's suspicions. In fact, the Jade Emperor didn't know how to place the four great King Kongs, because if it was high, it would finally be a disaster; if it was low, I was afraid that when the time came to do something to the three Yuan Shi Tianzun, the four of them would not be able to transfer to help. Therefore, the Jade Emperor also handed over this question to Yuan Shi Tianzun. If the arrangement given by Yuan Shi Tianzun is not good, the Jade Emperor will find a way to transfer it himself.

Yuan Shi Tianzun said: "Let this seat think about it. Yuan Shi Tianzun saw that the Jade Emperor was like this, so he took advantage of the situation to follow this matter, and he didn't want to push it around, besides, like this kind of person who didn't know the details, let others press it, and he himself was not at ease.

Yuan Shi Tianzun pondered for a long time, and then suddenly said: "Right now, the Heavenly Court of Heavenly Court is just lacking a few immortal generals with high mana. I want you to guard these four heavenly gates, what do you think?"

As soon as Yuan Shi Tianzun's words came out, the Jade Emperor's heart immediately sank, afraid that the four great King Kongs would not be able to hold their breath and offend Yuan Shi Tianzun. Yuan Shi Tianzun's words were obviously to let the four of them go to be watchdogs, and the four great King Kongs are also figures with heads and faces in Buddhism, and the food and clothing are not bad, the Jade Emperor is afraid that the four King Kongs will not be able to stand this anger and fall out.

In fact, Yuan Shi Tianzun did this on purpose, he just wanted to use this method to test the hearts and tempers of these four people. This immortal general guarding the four heavenly gates sounds very domineering, but in fact, he is just a gatekeeper, and he is the watchdog of the heavenly court......

After the four King Kongs listened to Yuan Shi Tianzun's words, the faces of the four people changed at the same time, and the King Kong holding the sword had the intention of drawing his sword against each other, but fortunately, he was secretly stopped by the other three King Kongs.

King Kong, who was holding the lute, was very aware of the importance of this mission to the development of Buddhism, so he could not let them spoil the great affairs of Buddhism because of their own face problems, after all, Buddhism was so kind to them. He held back his anger, smiled and knelt down to Yuan Shi Tianzun and bowed his hand: "If Tianzun does not dislike it, my brothers and I are willing to accept such a heavy responsibility! I promise not to let any demons, demons, monsters, and miscellaneous people come in, and I will never let any immortals and mounts enter and leave the Heavenly Gate casually." He said this not only to the Heavenly Court Immortals, but also to the other three King Kongs. He was implying that the Heavenly Gate was the important place of the Heavenly Court, and it was the place where the immortals who controlled the Heavenly Court came and went, and if they were in charge of the four Heavenly Gates, then the life and death of the Heavenly Court would be in their hands. Although the other three didn't understand the meaning of these words, they also understood the importance of this mission, so they still held back their anger and knelt down and said, "If Tianzun doesn't dislike it, we are willing to serve and do our part for Heavenly Court." ”

Seeing this situation, the stone hanging in the Jade Emperor's heart finally fell to the ground. He was really afraid that these four King Kongs couldn't help it just now, so he fell out with Yuan Shi Tianzun and messed up the whole thing. In fact, the reason why the Jade Emperor was so nervous was because he failed to deal with the "Three Qings", and he was the one who suffered the greatest loss, and he might even give away his life.

After hearing the answer of the Four Great King Kongs, Yuan Shi Tianzun was very happy in his heart. He didn't care if the four of them were sincere or not, but at least the four of them were very sensible and didn't say some miscellaneous things to talk about the demands. He smiled and said, "It seems that you also understand the importance of the four heavenly gates, and I feel very relieved in my heart, and I believe that it will be very safe to hand over these four heavenly gates to you, and I will definitely keep the heavenly court impregnable." Then he enshrined King Kong holding the pipa as the king of the eastern kingdom and guarding the east gate of heaven; King Kong holding the sword in his hand was the king of southern growth and guarding the south gate of heaven; King Kong holding the red dragon in his hand was the western wide-eyed heaven and guarding the west gate of heaven; and King Kong holding the umbrella was the king of the north and guarding the north gate of heaven.

All the immortals on the side sneered and looked at them with contempt, because everyone knew that this gatekeeper job was the most irrelevant to do, and he just had to be idle all day long, because no fool would be so bold as to provoke the heavenly court.

Seeing everyone's disgusting expressions, the Four Great King Kongs felt a burst of fire in their hearts, but they still held back the anger in their hearts and thanked the three Yuan Shi Tianzun and the Jade Emperor.

Lingbao Tianzun snorted coldly and said, "You don't need to thank me, you just thank them." "It's very embarrassing for the Four King Kongs.

And Daode Tianzun just waved his hand and said, "I'm just talking about things for the development of Heavenly Court, don't thank me." ”

Then the four King Kongs went to thank the Jade Emperor again. The Jade Emperor didn't dare to accept it, but he was afraid that the Four King Kongs would hold a grudge.

Yuan Shi Tianzun didn't see that the four great King Kongs were emotionally out of control, and he was very disappointed in his heart, he originally wanted to drive them away if the four of them couldn't bear it, so that he could suppress the Jade Emperor's prestige in front of the gods and immortals on the grounds that the Jade Emperor had no vision. Seeing that everything was taken care of, Yuan Shi Tianzun got up and straightened his clothes, and said, "Since you have come back and given us a satisfactory explanation, then it is time for me to go home." Three days later, we're waiting for your news. ”

The Jade Emperor bowed down and said, "Xiaoxian obeys the order and sends off the three Heavenly Venerables." The other immortals also saluted and sent them off.

The Jade Emperor had been thinking about how to deal with this large pile of twists and turns just now, and if he gave Yuan Shi Tianzun an explanation after three days, he would be so dizzy that he couldn't think of any way. At this time, a large number of immortals were secretly happy, watching coldly, waiting to see the Jade Emperor's good show. The Jade Emperor knew in his heart what they were thinking, but he had no choice but to swallow his anger and pretend not to know.

After the three of Yuan Shi Tianzun left, the Queen Mother also spoke: "Since there is nothing to do, then the palace will go back to the palace first." After the Queen Mother saluted the Jade Emperor, she took all the immortals back to Yaochi.

After the Jade Emperor asked the gods and immortals in the hall on the dragon chair about the recent situation, he asked people to lead the four kings to their respective residences, and then said a few words such as "the immortals have worked hard" and "I have been worried about you for many days" and so on, and then retreated. After he returned to the dormitory, his face immediately pulled down, turning purple, he had just been forced to interrogate by Yuan Shi Tianzun and them like interrogating prisoners in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, and he had already held back his belly, and Yuan Shi Tianzun was trying to find fault with him everywhere, he had endured it for a long time. It's just that because there is no available person in his hands, he would be so tolerant of Yuan Shi Tianzun and them, otherwise the three of them would have been eliminated a long time ago......
