Chapter 137 The Son of the Netherworld Makes a Difficulty, and the Emperor Xudu takes over
Suddenly, the day has passed.
Emperor Xudu still didn't come up with a countermeasure to get the best of both worlds, so he never went to visit the governor and Fei Tianjun in the prison of the city of vain, during which he just asked the ghost pawn to send some big fish and meat to entertain him, after all, the great god Zongbu is not such a big man to provoke.
Early in the morning of this day, Emperor Xudu went to the offering hall to incense the Yuan Ling of the Buddha of Nona, returned to the dormitory to change into court clothes, and prepared to go to the Mingsheng Hall to review the book of fallen life.
But at this moment, the attendant Forrest Gump hurriedly came in and knelt down and said: "Report to the master, the king of the five palaces Senluo asks to see him, and he will be there immediately." ”
"The King of the Five Palaces Sen Luo wants to see him, what is he doing here?" a trace of worry flashed in the pupils of the Emperor Xudu.
Before Forrest Gump could answer, there was a hearty laugh outside the door, and I saw that the King of the Five Palaces had already strode in, and it turned out that he was following closely behind Forrest Gump.
King Senluo walked up to the Emperor of Xudu in good spirits, and arched his hand and said, "The Emperor has always been good, and Xiao Wang is here to greet him today." ”
"Good, good...... Very good...... King Senluo, please sit down ......" Emperor Xudu had no choice but to invite King Senluo to take a seat, and after ordering the maid to serve tea, he asked, "King Senluo, you are not here today just for a greeting, right?"
King Senluo smiled and said: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from the emperor, Xiao Wang is here today for a special matter." ”
"What's going on?"
"There is still more than a month before the winter solstice is coming, Xiao Wang is here to ask where this year's debriefing meeting is going to be held?"
"Hmm, King Senluo, what do you mean by this?" Emperor Xudu had a displeased face, but King Senluo didn't mention the matter of Dushuo Mountain, so he was relieved.
King Senluo replied: "Originally, the annual debriefing meeting was held in Cuiyun Palace, but it has been 20 years since the Great Sect Master retreated in Jiuhua Mountain, and the annual debriefing meeting has been held in the Mingsheng Hall in the past 20 years, can it be arranged to be held in Xiao Wang's Senluo Palace this year?"
"King Senluo, what nonsense are you talking about!" Emperor Xudu said in a deep voice, "Since the Great Sect Master retreated to Jiuhua Mountain, the annual debriefing meeting has been held in the Mingsheng Hall of Xudu, at this time, Venerable Daoming was ordered by the Great Sect Master, you actually dare to come and make such an rude request, what kind of heart are you comfortable with? The Great Sect Master is not here now, but there is still me, the Emperor of Xudu!"
"Hahahaha...... Please suspend the wrath of the thunder, please suspend the wrath of the thunder......" King Senluo laughed and said, "There are rumors everywhere in the Netherworld Mansion that the emperor eats wine and eats every day, and does not ask about the affairs of the official family, but today, the emperor is still not confused at all, the minister is just a joke, please don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously......"
"Oh ha...... Emperor Xudu then laughed loudly, "King Senluo, what this emperor said is just a joke, please don't take it to heart." ”
"Don't dare...... Xiao Wang didn't dare to ......," a sinister smile hung from the corner of King Senluo's eyes.
When Emperor Xudu realized this, he stood up, and while arranging his robes, he issued an order to evict guests: "King Senluo, if you have nothing else to do, then please go back, this emperor will go to the Mingsheng Palace to review the Book of Fallen Life." ”
King Senluo hurriedly got up and said, "The emperor is slow, and the little king has one more thing to ask." ”
"What else do you ask?"
"Yesterday, I heard that the three subordinates of the Great God of Zongbu were imprisoned in the prison of the Dead City, I wonder if there is such a thing?" King Senluo is really cunning, the previous topic is just throwing bricks, and this is the real Yinyu.
Emperor Xudu was caught off guard and blurted out, "Who are you listening to?"
"This matter is not only known to Xiao Wang, but also to the other kings of the palaces, as for how we know, it is no longer important, the important thing is to resolve this matter as soon as possible. King Senluo said proudly.
"King Senluo, you are so despicable! You actually put your eyes and ears here in this emperor?" Emperor Xudu inadvertently leaked his mouth, and he couldn't hide it at this time, so he was furious and scolded.
King Senluo was not happy or angry, and said: "The emperor is not angry, the old saying is bad, the old saying is 'good birds choose trees and perch, good generals choose the master and things', since the great sect master retreated in Jiuhua Mountain, the Netherworld has no leader, the Emperor you are addicted to wine every day, and leave all the things in this Netherworld behind you and don't ask, now it is the time when the mountains and seas are coming, and the big and small civil and military are thinking about their own future, and it is naturally the most normal thing to be close to the little king. ”
"Hmph! King Senluo, let's open the skylight with you and say something bright: over the years, all the things you have done in secret, including the matter of driving out Mr. Fang Qingyin Fang on Luming Island, and colluding with the Beiji Kingdom Botuo to provoke the Great Sect Master, do you really think that this emperor does not know? This emperor is just because of the coming of this mountain and sea netherworld calamity, so he eats and drinks every day and pretends to be confused, in fact, he understands this very well in his heart!" Emperor Xudu angrily revealed the illegal and rebellious things of King Senluo in the past.
"Hahahaha......" King Senluo was not afraid, but laughed loudly, "The emperor is really good at protecting himself, Xiao Wang admires and admires...... Since the emperor has been eating this wine for more than 30 years, then please continue to eat, as for the affairs of the Netherworld, all the affairs of the Netherworld will be handled by Xiao Wang. ”
"Bold!" Emperor Xudu was furious and shouted violently.
"Emperor: It's not that I'm bold, it's that I'm bold, but I'm bold. King Senluo said without shock, "You actually imprisoned the three disciples of the great god Zongbu, if the great god Zongbu learned about it, he was angry and raised troops to attack, wouldn't the Netherworld Mansion fall into a situation of imminent calamity?"
"What do you know?! This emperor has his own reason for imprisoning them, and this emperor will also deal with it carefully, you don't have to be nosy!"
"Xiao Wang is not nosy, this fact is related to the life and death of the Netherworld. King Senluo said solemnly, "Now that the Great Sect Master is not here, and you are the Emperor of Xudu and confused, naturally you can't make your own decisions, and you have to ask me about this matter from the King of the Ten Palaces." ”
"King Senluo, you, you, you, you, you......" Emperor Xudu was so angry that he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.
"Please don't be angry, Xiao Wang is also for the sake of the safety of the Netherworld, not for one person's selfishness/desire, since you and I have different opinions, then act in accordance with the laws of the Netherworld, at the debriefing meeting on the day of the winter solstice, everyone will discuss this matter together and vote through, what do you think, Emperor?"
"Good, good, good...... You said it so high-soundingly, this emperor will do what you say, this emperor wants to see if you can turn the sky upside down!"
"One word is a deal! Emperor, then let's meet again at the debriefing meeting, Xiao Wang said goodbye first. King Senluo bowed slightly, put his hands behind his back, and took a big stride, walking away with his toes high.
Looking at the back of King Senluo leaving, Emperor Xudu was so angry that he almost vomited red, and immediately summoned Forrest Gump, who was standing next to him, to come forward and asked: "Forrest Gump, this incident happened in Xudu, and the master has ordered not to leak the slightest rumor, how did King Senluo know?"
"I don't know. ”
"Waste! I don't know if you ask three questions! This King Senluo is so well-informed, there must be a report from the inner ghost, you should go and check it quickly, and be sure to find out this inner ghost. ”
"Oh, the young general is going to investigate!" Forrest Gump agreed, exited the dormitory, and went to find the ghost inside.
Forrest Gump searched all the way from the Mingsheng Palace to the prison of the city of vain death, and interrogated the seven officers and cell bosses who were on duty yesterday one by one, and naturally they were inevitably tortured, and finally found out the inner ghost on the third day, which was the warden of the prison of the city of vain death.
This warden had long been bought by King Senluo as a confidant, hoping to one day be promoted to the rank of judge in front of the palace.
In fact, since King Senluo was demoted to the Five Palaces, not only in the Xudu, but also in the Forgotten Terrace and Cuiyun Palace, some have been secretly planted in person, some are bribed with gold and silver, and some are tempted by officials...... Therefore, every move in the Netherworld has almost been controlled by King Senluo for a long time.
Although Emperor Xudu knew that King Senluo had already shown signs of bad intentions, especially in the past twenty years, he did not expect that the forces he had secretly arranged had infiltrated the prison of Xudu. When Forrest Gump brought the warden to see him, Emperor Xudu became angry and ordered him to be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell, and he would never be reborn.
Although the inner ghost has been removed, it is no longer to help, and the news of the imprisonment of the three subordinates of the great god Zongbu has spread all over the Netherworld, and it is too late to make amends.
Emperor Xudu thought about it day and night, thought about it day and night, and in the blink of an eye, more than 20 days passed, and he still didn't think of the best of both worlds.
On this day, according to the practice of the past, Emperor Xudu began to write a notice letter, preparing to notify the gods such as the Five Ghost Emperors, the Ten Palaces of Yama, Meng Po of the Forgotten Stage, and Zhong Kui, the traveling judge of the Yin and Yang Realms, to participate in the debriefing meeting.
When the word "Zhong Kui" was written on a notice letter, Emperor Xudu suddenly had an idea and had a plan, so he called out to Forrest Gump, who was serving under His Royal Highness Mingsheng: "Forrest Gump! ”
"Master, what do you command?" Forrest Gump walked to the official desk and knelt down on one knee in salute.
"You go to Chang'an Street in Middle Earth quickly, find Zhong Kui back, and say that I have something urgent to find him, master. ”
"No!" Forrest Gump stood up and saluted to leave.
"Slow and slow......"
"What else does the lord command?"
"When you go to Chang'an Street in Middle-earth, you must act in secret, and you must not leak the news, and bring Zhong Kui to the master's bedroom to see you, and you must not let others see it. ”
"No!" Forrest Gump agreed, bowed, and walked out of the Mingsheng Palace.
Emperor Xudu stared at the word "Zhong Kui" on the notice book, and couldn't help but smile proudly.
