Chapter 55: The Peach Conference and the Losers
Pear fell in shame and anger and was slapped in the mouth by Zhang Zichen's order to be on duty, and he was full of hatred and anger in his heart.
Although the star officer on duty was not very heavy, she was still crazy in her heart, and she secretly vowed to not share the sky with Zhang Zichen and Shen Jiarou.
Liluo was cut face, and she couldn't be arrogant anymore, at least on the surface, because she found that Zhang Zichen, the Jade Emperor, was really calculating, and he could still punish her, but she was helpless.
After all, her arrogance is based on the grace of the Queen Mother, and now that the Queen Mother is not in sight, no one can make decisions for her.
So after being slapped in the mouth, the pear fell fairy angrily left to complain to the queen mother, leaving only a little fairy to convey the queen mother's meaning.
"Your Majesty, Niangniang said that the next Pan Tao Conference is coming, so you should hurry up and prepare the corresponding supplies, and don't let her lose face at that time. ”
After the little fairy conveyed the words of the queen mother, she left in a hurry, she was afraid that the Jade Emperor's anger would not subside and she would also suffer, after all, the lessons of the pear fall were there.
"Hmph! Lao Tzu is not ready! Zhang Bairen's wife has a birthday, why should I pay for it!
It's just a matter of discussing with me in a good voice, and such an arrogant woman was sent!
I don't know, I think this maid is the queen mother!"
After those people left, Zhang Zichen said indignantly.
In the distant sky, Zhang Bairen sneezed again, and he didn't have to count to know what was going on, so he learned Zhang Zichen's tone and said to himself:
"Hey, don't wronged me, you kid, the queen mother's ruined girl is not my wife..."
Zhang Zichen naturally couldn't hear Zhang Bairen's self-talk, but fortunately, there was a star official on duty to give him guidance.
I saw that the star officer on duty touched his nose and said embarrassedly:
"Your Majesty can't be angry, the Queen Mother's Pan Tao Conference still has to be held, and it has to be specially organized, after all, this involves the face of my heavenly court. ”
Zhang Zichen was confused: "What does the Queen Mother's birthday have to do with the face of Heavenly Court?"
The star officer on duty cleared his throat and bowed down to explain: "Speaking of the Pan Tao Conference, there is really a twist and turn in the process.
It is said that this queen mother is called the Queen Mother of the West, and she is a Taoist couple with the prince of the East, and she is also the head of all the fairies in the heavenly court.
It's just that the Queen Mother of the West has an excellent face, and every birthday is very grand, and she sends invitations to invite the power of the Six Realms. Each time it consumes a lot of peaches and a lot of natural treasures.
Over time, the prince of the east gradually could not afford to supply, and in order to escape from the queen mother of the west, he actually hid, and it happened that His Majesty Bairen was on the throne at that time, and began to develop faith incense to the mortal world.
Mortals are ignorant, messing around with mandarin duck scores, only the Queen Mother of the West is the Taoist companion of the Jade Emperor.
The powers of the Heavenly Court will then be wrong, because the propaganda of the faith of the Heavenly Court must always have an emperor and a queen, so that mortals can enjoy it and increase the faith of the Heavenly Court.
The Jade Emperor borrowed the name of the Queen Mother to develop the belief in the heavenly court, and the Queen Mother's peach meeting was supplied by the Jade Emperor, which is equivalent to the so-called "affiliation fee" among the people.
And the Pan Tao Conference is also an opportunity for my Heavenly Court to show the strength of the Heavenly Court to the gods, Buddhas and demons of the Six Realms, the grander the Pan Tao Conference is, the stronger the strength of my Heavenly Court. ”
Zhang Zichen listened to the words of the star official on duty, and suddenly had a feeling of chaos, it turned out that the queen mother was not the wife of the former Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen, but the wife of the prince of the east!
Shen Jiarou was relaxed, although she had long known that Zhang Zichen would not lie to him, but she was still much more relaxed when she heard with her own ears that the Queen Mother and Zhang Zichen, the Jade Emperor, had no real husband and wife relationship.
Only Zhang Zichen's face was depressed:
"In this way, this peach conference still has to be held?"
"That's true. ”
The star officer on duty responded.
"Well, anyway, I'm afraid that the debt they forcibly pressed me will not be able to be paid off in my lifetime, so what does it matter if there is more or less, let's say, how much spiritual liquid is needed to hold the Pan Tao Meeting?"
"This... Your Majesty, in fact, Pan Tao will not need spiritual liquid. ”
"Don't need an aura?
Hearing that the star officer on duty said that he didn't need spiritual liquid, Zhang Zichen suddenly relaxed, he felt that as long as it wasn't spiritual liquid, everything else would be easy to handle.
"At the peach meeting, the first thing is to taste the peach, the production in this peach orchard is still affordable, as for what His Majesty needs to provide, it is nothing more than the dragon liver and phoenix pith, Lintoe Hezhen, Ganoderma lucidum fairy grass, Qiong Jelly and jade liquid and other banquets.
Only these heavenly treasures are enough to show the multiplicity of beautiful things in my heavenly court. ”
Zhang Zichen was so shocked that his jaw fell, the elixir jade liquid was okay to say, but it was just a fruit wine made from the immortal fruit of the heavenly court, and as for the dragon liver and phoenix pith and Ganoderma lucidum fairy grass, it made him feel deep despair!
There are only a dozen immortal grass spirit treasures in his Jade Emperor treasure house, and this is still the treasure of the former Jade Emperor Zhang Bairen for many years, where can he get so many dragon liver and phoenix marrow!
As far as he knew, the current Dragon Clan of Heavenly Court was left with the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas and their children, so he couldn't chop up the feudal officials of Heavenly Court and give them to the gods and demons of the Six Realms to taste, right?
Normal people can't do this kind of thing.
In fact, it is exactly like this, the dragon liver and phoenix marrow in the past of Heavenly Court were all taken from the evil dragon and evil phoenix who violated the rules of heaven, but after so many years, no matter how many evil dragons have been killed, where is there still a dragon liver and phoenix marrow to provide.
Even because Heavenly Court has the special dish of dragon liver and phoenix marrow, even the Jiaolong in the Nether Realm did not dare to go to Heaven to be sealed after the success of the Tribulation, and most of them chose to take refuge in Donghuang Taiyi, the lord of the demon clan, which also indirectly weakened the strength of Heavenly Court.
"No buying, no killing!"
Zhang Zichen suddenly had such a sentence in his heart.
He didn't know if the dragon liver and phoenix marrow were delicious, but Zhang Zichen felt that it was not worth it when he put this dish on the peach banquet in order to set up the score.
He would rather choose to eat hot pot than eat such a tyrannical luxury.
Where is this birthday, it's simply the behavior of a loser, can eating dragon liver and phoenix marrow show the strength of Heavenly Court?
Zhang Zichen thinks that this is definitely a self-deceptive idea.
Not only the Heavenly Court, in fact, the strength of any country and dynasty from ancient times to the present day has not relied on extravagant diet, but real hard power.
Just like the Tang Dynasty in history, which "opened the palace in nine days, and all countries worshipped the crown", it did not rely only on the drunken gold fans of Chang'an, but also on the iron cavalry that swept the world and the strong mind of the 800-mile Hanhai in the Western Regions as the mainland.
Once you indulge in drunkenness, you will face "Yu Yang Mo came agitatedly and broke the song of the neon clothes and feathers!"
Therefore, Zhang Zichen felt that the extravagance of the Pan Tao Conference could not save the declining status quo of Heavenly Court, but would only endlessly consume the heavenly treasures of Heavenly Court, and cheapen the appetite of those specious gods and demons.
The rise of Heavenly Court should rely on the 300,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals at the mouth of the Guanjiang River, the unification of the Heavenly Court Immortals, and his efforts to make money and develop faith in the world with him, the Jade Emperor, rather than relying on the music to make others "mouth happy" unconvinced!
