On this day, the group of immortals came to the morning and the congratulations were over, and Emperor Gou Chen said: "Your Majesty, in two days, it will be the ninth day of the first month, the period of Your Majesty's birthday." According to the practice of previous years, the hundred officials of the Heavenly Palace are to congratulate him, and he also asks His Majesty to make arrangements as soon as possible. ”

"I know. "The Jade Emperor said. "I lead the Three Realms, and I celebrate Christmas every year, and I can't bear it. ”

"My emperor leads the immortals of the Three Realms, and he deserves to accept our worship!" Piao Ranzi was among the ministers, he didn't speak, he looked left and right, and felt funny, this is no different from the emperor in the world, it seems that the Jade Emperor also wants to flatter.

"Since the love of the people is very good, I have the right to accept it. "The Jade Emperor said. "According to the practice of previous years, Tai Bai Xing is in charge, and the banquet is the same as in previous years. ”

"Your Majesty, the Tai Bai Xing has long since ceased to be in the early dynasty. "Emperor Gou Chen said.

"Then it's up to the Heavenly Machine Star Monarch to arrange it at its sole discretion. ”

"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Machine Star Monarch will not come to the early dynasty. Emperor Gou Chen said again.

"Where is Xu Zhenren?" the Jade Emperor looked around for Xu Jingyang.

"Your Majesty, Xu Zhenren went to visit Sanqing, but he has not returned. Emperor Gou Chen said again.

"Hey, Emperor Zhenwu and Emperor Ziwei are not here, it seems that Emperor Gou Chen will act as their agent. The Jade Emperor looked at the group of immortals below and said.

"The ministers are willing to do it for them, but these few heavenly officials who are not in the early dynasty still need to be invited to participate in the Christmas court?" said Emperor Gou Chen.

"You don't have to. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book. The multi-eyed ghost king came out of the class and said.

"Qin Aiqing, please speak. ”

"Your Majesty's birthday, once a year, these emperors and heavenly officials do not come to the early dynasty, they will definitely not take Your Majesty in their eyes, despise our emperor, and should be punished!"

"Your Majesty, what Qin Yushi said is inappropriate!" Emperor Gou Chen was anxious when he heard it. "Tai Bai Xing Gao Lao retired, Xu Zhenren went to the office, and he couldn't come to congratulate him, which is understandable. ”

"Hmph, what about the Heavenly Machine Star Monarch, Ziwei Emperor, and Zhenwu Emperor?" the Multi-Eyed Ghost King sneered.

"How do you know they don't come to congratulate?" said Emperor Gou Chen.

"So, they must be here?" said the Much-Eyed Ghost King.

"Hmph, they should come. "Emperor Gou Chen said. "Since Your Majesty has handed over the Christmas court meeting to me, I will handle it myself, and I don't have to worry about you!"

"Hehe, Jade Emperor Christmas, without the Heavenly Machine Star Monarch, Ziwei Emperor, and Zhenwu Emperor, what kind of system will they become! If they don't come, it will damage Your Majesty's face!"

"Two Aiqing, don't fight. "The Jade Emperor said. "Qin Yushi doesn't have to fight for me to save face, if they don't come, it's because I am incompetent in leading the immortal world, I'm afraid it's time to make an edict. ”

When the ministers heard it, the Jade Emperor seemed to be angry, but no one dared to answer.

After being silent for a while, Emperor Gou Chen said: "Your Majesty, this matter is handled by me with full authority, you can rest assured." ”

"Well, my Christmas, every year, doesn't have to be extravagant. The Jade Emperor said, "Ladies and gentlemen, there is a morning music. ”

The Jade Emperor diverted the topic, and the ministers began to play the book one after another. After the morning discussion, when the Jade Emperor was about to roll up the curtain and retreat from the court, Emperor Gou Chen played again: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask Chu Tianshuai to organize the Christmas court party with me, please be gracious." ”

"Okay, Chu Piaoran, you will assist Emperor Gou Chen and organize the Christmas court. The Jade Emperor said and retreated.

The ministers dispersed, and Emperor Gou Chen asked Piaoranzi to stay, and discussed: "It will be the ninth day of the first month in two days, and Chu Tianshuai will still have to work hard." ”

"The emperor doesn't have to be polite, just tell me if you have something. Piaoranzi said.

"The old ghost wants to invite the Second Emperor Monarch and the Heavenly Machine Star Monarch to also come to the court, it's very difficult to do, I want to invite you to take a trip, how about it?"

"Yes, but I don't know what I'm going to do?" said Piaoranzi.

"Emperor Yousheng has gone to the lower realm, went to Wudang Mountain, it is inconvenient for you to go out of the Heavenly Palace, the identity of this Tianshuai, the Emperor Zhenwu may not give you face, or let me go, go and please." "Emperor Gou Chen said.

"It's fine. Piao Ranzi thought about how he didn't keep Emperor Yousheng at the beginning, and felt that he was not sure to invite him to the Heavenly Palace again.

"You go to Ziwei Palace and Tianji Xingjun's mansion, and bring all the heavenly generals, these two people have a good impression of you, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, don't look at the fish and look at the water situation, you shouldn't be embarrassed. If they don't agree to the Christmas greetings, you are guilty of dereliction of duty, and you will definitely come. "Emperor Gou Chen said.

"Okay, I'll lead the eighteen heavenly generals of the Zhaoxian Pavilion to pay a visit. Piao Ranzi readily agreed. ,

Without further ado, Emperor Gou Chen went to the imperial dining room to arrange a banquet two days later, and then ordered the headquarters of the Heavenly Palace, and took Wang Lingguan and Marshal Kang Xikang, and went out of the Baode Pass of Nantianmen, went to Wudang Mountain, visited Emperor Zhenwu, and invited him to return to the Heavenly Palace to participate in the Jade Emperor's Christmas on the ninth day of the first lunar month.

Piao Ranzi returned to the Zhaoxian Pavilion, summoned eighteen heavenly generals, that is, eighteen kuiyuan, and went to the council hall to discuss it, and went to the mansion of Tianji Xingjun first.

Fairy Jiuhua smiled: "Chu Piaoran, you can do these two things alone, why bother to wait for me?"

"I'm afraid I don't have that much face. Let's all go. Piaoranzi said.

Eighteen Kuiyuan was not easy to refuse, so as soon as the nineteen immortals arrived at the gate of the mansion, Tianji Xingjun greeted him and smiled at the immortals: "Everyone is here for this Xingjun, you are so laborious and mobilized, you are ashamed to kill this monarch." ”

"Xingjun, Chu thanked me first. Piao Ranzi arched his hand.

"Thank you, where did I come from?"

"You asked the multi-eyed ghost king's sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, originally wanted the Jade Emperor to withdraw from the marriage, this kindness, Chu Mou understood it. Piaoranzi said. That day, it was because of the Heavenly Machine Star Monarch who forced the multi-eyed ghost king's mediator to anger the Jade Emperor and made this star monarch not have to come to the court, and Piao Ranzi felt guilty when he thought about it.

"The past is not mentioned. "Heavenly Machine Star Monarch said. "You have come to invite you this time, why don't I go to the meeting? ”

Piao Ranzi didn't expect him to agree so happily, and hurriedly thanked him, it was inconvenient to stay any longer, and went to Ziwei Palace again.

Nineteen immortals came to the outside of Ziwei Palace, and the feather-clothed immortal official guarding the palace gate asked, "Where are the gods of the immortals?"

Piao Ranzi reported the name of himself and the heavenly generals, and the feather-clothed immortal official asked why he came. Piao Ranzi replied that he would like to visit the Emperor Ziwei, please pass through.

Not long after the feather-clothed immortal official entered the Ziwei Palace, he came out with a smile and said, "The Emperor Ziwei is very happy to hear that Chu Tianshuai is coming to visit, and he invites everyone!"

Nineteen immortals entered the palace gate, and the feather-clothed immortal official led the way in front of him, turned the quiet courtyard, and came to a large garden, and the feather-clothed immortal official pointed to the rockery: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Emperor Ziwei is there." ”

When he looked at it, he was stunned: he saw that Emperor Ziwei was wearing purple clothes, and he was throwing rings with the eight immortal officials, talking and laughing while throwing, without any trace of the appearance of an emperor.

"Emperor, Chu Tianshuai and all the heavenly generals are here. The Feather-robed Immortal Officer brought all the immortals to Emperor Ziwei and said.

"Hehe, Chu Tianshuai and the Heavenly Generals are here, what a rare guest!" Emperor Ziwei shook the ring in his hand and said with a smile.

After Piao Ranzi and the immortals finished their gifts, they introduced the emperor one by one. Emperor Ziwei looked at the Jiuhua Fairy and said with a smile: "If you want me to see, this profound martial champion should have been the Jiuhua Fairy." Chu Piaoran, it seems that your popularity is really good, the fairy let you, and you can be the champion of this martial arts examination. ”

"The emperor has exaggerated!" said the Jiuhua Fairy. "Chu Piaoran has won ten battles, who would dare to disagree with the eight hundred wise men? ”
