Chapter 54: The Legend of the Demon God (6)
Jiang Jiuwei glanced at the table of various pork dishes in front of him, and looked up to see the soft-looking pastoral expression gobbling up, and couldn't help laughing.
She really couldn't help the bright-minded kid in front of her, and she was even more curious about his character and the second place on the list, so she asked when he stopped talking:
"You... What was the first world like? ”
Hearing this, Mu Cixi put the chopsticks to his lips and said unguardedly: "Hmm... In a mountain, he met a lot of kind Taoist sisters, and together with them, he defeated a group of robbers nearby.
Yes... I miss them so much, but unfortunately I can't go back......"

"I feel that the whole person is relaxed after the ninth sister encounters the."
"It's actually pretty good."
"Upstairs, have you forgotten what happened when Ninth Sister was in the dungeon? If she hadn't had the ability to protect herself, she wouldn't have known what it would be like to be bullied! ”
"Shhhh It seems that this 'demon' is having such a miserable life! ”
"What's the matter, what does the 'demon' have to do with us?"
"Upstairs, you're a little loving."
"Heh, can love help the ninth sister live a good life?"
Jiang Jiu didn't notice the quarrel that began in the barrage, and was about to take a closer look at their topic, when he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance.
She turned her head and saw a person who looked like a guard walking in front of her, saluted her respectfully, and said calmly:
"Miss Jiang, without further ado, the Holy One invites you to go to the main hall."
Seeing the anxious look on his face, Jiang Jiu didn't vaguely guess that maybe it was what he just said in the palace that affected the emperor and made her make a decision that had a wide impact.
Jiang Jiuwei got up neatly, looked back and looked slightly stunned, as if he didn't know what was going on, he smiled apologetically at him, and followed the guards to the main hall quickly.
As soon as he entered the main hall, Jiang Jiuwei felt that the atmosphere was not quite right.
Her "gaze" swept over both sides of the hall and found that there were already two rows of civil and military officials standing densely. They all looked at themselves with a mixture of disgust and hatred.
The guards did not seem to be able to carry their troops up to the temple, so they sent her to the door, and bowed and left.
The attendant at the door saw her stunned as if she was at a loss, and hurriedly stepped forward, just about to help the "blind girl" in front of her to walk to the saint.
Jiang Jiu didn't notice his outstretched hand, staggered it without leaving a trace, his voice was slightly cold, and said:
"No, I'll just go over by myself."
The waiter was slightly stunned, looked at the red cloth on her face, his eyes sank slightly, and he leaned back.
Walking in front of the empress, Jiang Jiuwei noticed that the monarch, who had just been gentle and humble, had a gloomy face at this time, as if he had just had a big quarrel with someone.
She switched to the perspective of the "ghost" and found that the emperor's head was surging with red qi representing anger, and there was a faint blue qi representing unwillingness.
Not knowing the specific situation here, Jiang Jiuwei didn't dare to act without permission, but just softened his voice and said gently:
"Your Majesty, do you have anything to do with me?"
The empress seemed to be soothed by her gentle tone, took a deep breath, and said majestically:
"This time I invited the girl to come for ......"
A military attache interrupted the words of the young saint in front of him rather rudely, stretched out his rough big finger and pointed at the delicate demon girl in front of him, and said disdainfully:
"Official, for the sake of such a monster, you want to withdraw the 'Ling Demon Edict'? What kind of truth is this? Don't be afraid to make jokes when you spread it! ”
The empress was interrupted from speaking, and the anger in her heart seemed to have reached a peak, and she waved her hand angrily and said in a low voice:
"Wang Wu! How dare you refute me, come on! Drag him down for me! ”
The temple guard on the side just wanted to act, but was stopped by an old man with white hair and beard, he bowed respectfully to the Son of Heaven in front of him, and said without saltiness:
"Your Majesty is angry... Although Wang Wu is a martial artist and does not know the etiquette, what he said also has some truth. ”
The old man who looked like a Wenchen didn't seem to see the face of the Son of Heaven who was about to come out of the water, and said unhurriedly:
"The Son of Heaven Chrysostom said that the edict just sent by His Majesty is about to be withdrawn, so there must be a decent reason for it, right?"
The empress was so angry that her chest rose and fell for a while, but she didn't have a seizure, she glanced at the civil and military ministers who had ghosts, and said sternly:
"I sent 'embroidered clothes' to investigate, and those demons are not as terrible as you say.
What's more, this Jiang girl didn't hurt me just now, so why should we rush to kill them all again? ”
"Embroidered clothes?" Wang Wu snorted coldly, "They are just a group of rats, and what they say is not right!" ”
The old man looked sideways and motioned for Wang Wu to silence, and he took the initiative to speak:
"Your Majesty must not listen to and believe partially..."
"Oh, I'm biased in listening!?"
The empress motioned to the palace guard to step forward, pointed to the outside of the palace, and said angrily,
"If I hadn't taken the initiative to investigate, I'm afraid I'd still believe what you said. Hunt down and kill that group of demons who are not guilty of great evil! ”
The old man didn't seem to have any intention of competing with the Son of Heaven in front of him, so he just avoided the important and light, looked at Jiang Jiuwei who was standing on the side, and said:
"If Your Majesty wants to raise a demon pet, the minister will not object, but I hope that Your Majesty will have a clear distinction between public and private affairs and state affairs!"
Seeing the old man's statement, the Wenchen on the side also hurriedly came out of the queue and spoke in unison:
"Your Majesty, please take state affairs first!"
The empress understood that he was transferring the key issue, alluding to her misleading country because of sex, her heart was slightly cold, she laughed angrily, glanced around, and said in a deep voice:
"Well, you're good! What if I have to withdraw the edict? ”
"Your Majesty thinks twice..."
The old man bowed lower, but his tone did not appear humble, and he said,
"The Demon Suppression Division and the Jing Prison Guard will correct His Majesty's words and deeds."
Jiang Jiu didn't understand that these officials were using their authority to put pressure on this unqualified son of heaven, hoping that she would retreat in the face of difficulties.
However, she really didn't expect that this "Ming Jun" would revise the edict for the sake of the "demon" who seemed to have nothing to do with her, and even dared to confront the entire court.
Jiang Jiu had already understood by this time that no matter how he explained, it was impossible for him to get rid of the identity of this "monster". Since you can't get rid of it, you just stand in line.
Seeing that the situation had taken a turn for the worse, she hurriedly shifted the contradiction and said in a loud voice:
"Are you so afraid of us?"
The eyes of everyone who were originally focused on the "Son of Heaven" were attracted by her.
Jiang Jiuwei paused and said sarcastically:
"What nonsense are you talking about for the country and the people, don't you just want to make profits by buying and selling our so-called 'monsters'?"
Hearing her explicit remarks, the hall was full of shock, and some people even came out directly and reprimanded her:
"Dignified, how can it be the turn of a monster to speak!"
"I'm a monster, so what are you, beasts?"
Jiang Jiuwei's words were sharp, he did not back down, turned his face to the full hall of civil and military, and mocked,
"Treating us as prisoners, treating us as domestic animals, buying and selling at will, and bullying at will, isn't that what you officials often do?!"
The empress was still in a state of being a quiet and quiet seductive girl before meeting for the first time, and she was a little surprised, but she was quickly alerted by the content of her words.
She glanced around the courtiers and saw a faint panic on their faces.
The empress's face sank, knowing that Jiang Jiuwei's words were at least not out of nowhere, so she let the "demon girl" behave.
Unexpectedly, Wang Wu became angry, and rushed towards Jiang Jiuwei with a fierce attitude, as if he wanted to strangle this demon girl on the spot.
Seeing that the situation was gradually getting out of control, the empress hurriedly spoke, and was about to command the palace guard to go up to the rescue.
However, Wang Wu's pace was one step faster, and he arrived in front of Jiang Jiuwei in the blink of an eye.
He raised his huge fist and struck straight towards Jiang Jiuwei's door. Everyone thought that this peerless man was going to die on the spot, and they all showed a look that could not be said to be pity or happiness.
[Player Jiang Jiuwei/Judgment Block, Increase Priority, Judgment Successful!] 】
Although the bloodthirsty desire continued to scratch her heart, Jiang Jiuwei still took into account the overall situation of the negotiation and did not use the "Rose Tomb" that looked extremely terrifying.
She simply held out two fingers and stopped the seemingly powerful blow.
Even the empress, who was not flustered when she was angry just now, saw that her eyes jumped slightly, and she opened her red lips slightly in disbelief, and murmured:
"Miss Jiang......"
The full hall of civil and military officials was still talking about it, but this time they were all silent, and they looked at the girl in front of them dumbfounded.
Wang Wu seemed to feel that he had lost someone in front of everyone, and his face was even more ashamed, so he immediately waved his other fist and hit the lower abdomen of the demon girl in front of him.
Jiang Jiuwei didn't give him a chance, bent his slender white legs, and directly made a neat knee.
[Player Jiang Jiuwei/Judgment Knockdown, Increase Priority, Judgment Successful!] 】
Jiang Jiuwei looked at the rugged man in front of him who was covering his crotch and moaning in disgust, glanced at everyone, and continued:
"If you don't agree with each other, how much do you have the so-called etiquette in your heart?"

"Nine Sister A turns the whole audience!"
"Shhhh However, it hurts to look at."
"This emperor doesn't seem to be able to control the officials under him..."
"Buying and selling monsters? I don't think there's anything wrong with that! ”
It was the empress who came to her senses first, walked to Jiang Jiuwei's side, and was not afraid, touched her back soothingly, turned to everyone, and said majestically:
"I've long heard that some restless people in Yanjing City are doing tricks, but I didn't expect you to do so much!"
The old man seemed to have some support, and he was not much deterred by Jiang Jiuwei's violent behavior, so he turned around calmly, faced the saint, and said in a heavy tone:
"Your Majesty, look, this little demon girl can knock down our partial general, isn't the disaster of the monster serious?"
Jiang Jiuwei turned his head sideways to "look" at the empress, and the king nodded understandingly, motioning for her to answer for himself.
Taking over the right to speak, Jiang Jiu did not have the confidence, pointed to the thoughtful old man, and said in a cold tone:
"Is strength a curse? Then aren't you courtiers who hold great power all great disasters?! ”
