Chapter 81: The Jade Emperor's Thoughts
A day later, the Jade Emperor saw the familiar immortal official in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.
"Five immortals. ”
He smiled and asked, "What did you gain from going down to earth this time?"
The five immortals nodded one after another.
"Wu Quxing. ”
The Jade Emperor turned his gaze to Wu Quxing: "What have you gained." ”
Wu Quxing bowed his hand and talked about what he had seen and harvested in Huaguo Mountain this year.
He mainly reported on the cultivation of the monsters in Huaguo Mountain, which was also what the Jade Emperor asked him to pay more attention to before going down to earth.
Overall, the monsters in Huaguo Mountain pose no threat to the Heavenly Palace, and the improvement of combat power is far inferior to the improvement of production technology.
After hearing this, the Jade Emperor nodded with satisfaction.
He then threw the problem to Wen Quxing, who gained a lot more than Wu Quxing.
Wen Quxing reported in detail on the management system of Huaguoshan, as well as the pursuit of knowledge and talents, and suggested that the examination system of Huaguoshan should be implemented to human beings.
This suggestion naturally aroused the opposition of the immortal officials.
"Immortals should not interfere in the affairs of the mortal world. ”
"Mortals have mortal emperors, why do you need our help?"
The immortals said.
If the immortals want to maintain their identity, they must have their own persistence. Interfering in the affairs of mankind may not only be unhelpful, but also harmful.
Your Majesty pondered. King Tota Li stood up and said, "If we interfere in the affairs of the human world, what should be the relationship between immortals and mortals in the future?"
Taishang Laojun's promotion of rice had already made him dissatisfied, and naturally he did not agree with a more radical approach.
The Jade Emperor frowned slightly, feeling that it made sense.
"Let's leave that at that. ”
He let Wenqu Xing go down.
Wen Quxing felt pity in his heart, but this was the expected response, so he didn't say anything more.
The Jade Emperor then looked at Wang Lingguan.
"Your Majesty, I asked the Monkey King for a free body a year ago to work like a mortal in Huaguo Mountain. ”
Wang Lingguan said.
The Jade Emperor suddenly became interested: "The Monkey King agreed?"
"Agreed. ”
Wang Lingguan nodded: "Huaguo Mountain is prosperous, it is indeed a unique place, the Monkey King is talented, and it is convincing." ”
He told some of his experiences, and the Jade Emperor and the immortals were amazed when they heard it.
But Wang Lingguan retreated after talking about what he had seen and heard, and did not make any suggestions.
The Jade Emperor finally looked at the Giant Spirit God: "Giant Spirit God, what do you see again?"
There was a cold sweat behind the giant spirit god, what can I do, he has been dried overseas for a year in the cold wind, and there is no gain at all.
He thought about it for a long time, until the Jade Emperor's face began to deteriorate, and the giant spirit god hurriedly replied: "The minister learned some seafood barbecue!"
“......”
There was silence in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
What is Seafood Barbecue?
The Jade Emperor asked a few times, and when he learned the truth, he asked the giant spirit god to go to Tianhe to release the horse.
After the court meeting dispersed, the Jade Emperor called Taishang Laojun to listen to him talk about Huaguo Mountain.
"Sun Wukong is indeed as His Majesty said, he is a rare talent, and he is generous, and he will not become an enemy of the sky......"
After Taishang Laojun finished talking about Huaguo Mountain, he also gave Sun Wukong a very high evaluation.
The Jade Emperor felt relieved, even Lao Jun said so, and he really didn't look away.
"Just now in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, Wang Lingguan seemed to have something to say. ”
The Jade Emperor continued: "He didn't say it, do you know what it is?"
Taishang Laojun smiled and nodded: "Wang Lingguan wants to suggest that the Heavenly Palace adopt some Huaguo Mountain's governance techniques. ”
The Jade Emperor frowned: "Then why didn't he say it?"
"Because His Majesty will not agree. ”
Taishang Laojun replied that not only the Jade Emperor, but also the other immortals would not agree - Wenqu Xing's suggestion was rejected by them.
The Jade Emperor couldn't help but sigh.
"Sun Wukong's governance skills, I trust him very much. The Jade Emperor said: "But his difficulty in this regard worries me more than supernatural powers. ”
"Worried about what?"
Taishang Laojun asked.
"He is good at governance, and even if he has no malicious intent, he may have an impact on the Heavenly Palace. ”
The Jade Emperor said: "I sent the immortal official over to learn some ways of governance from him, take its essence, and discard its dross, but after you went, I was even more worried in my heart." ”
Taishang Laojun nodded.
The governance methods of Tiangong and Huaguoshan are completely different, and if they are adopted in a hurry, something big will happen.
"There is no urgency. ”
Taishang Laojun said: "I have something to tell Your Majesty. ”
The Jade Emperor looked over.
"I've seen Elder Golden Cicada a few times in Huaguo Mountain. ”
Taishang Laojun said: "I look at the Buddha of the West Heaven, and I am also interested in Sun Wukong. ”
"I can't see through the Buddha's thoughts. ”
The Jade Emperor nodded: "It is precisely this point that Sun Wukong's overtures make me happy." If I become an enemy of him, I am afraid that in the future, he will be taken away by the Western Heavens. ”
Taishang Laojun was surprised for a while, he hadn't heard of this.
"Your Majesty is worried about the Buddha?"
"All along, the Buddha was harmless to me. ”
The Jade Emperor said that there were many Buddhas among the immortal officials of the Heavenly Palace.
But all this time, there was no conflict between them.
Only this time, the Jade Emperor asked someone to ask about the Buddha Sun Wukong, and the Buddha was almost tight-lipped.
Although the Buddha reminded him to be cautious, he did not say what he was going to do to Sun Wukong.
Obviously, Elder Jin Cicada lived in Huaguo Mountain, but the Buddha acted as if he didn't know anything, which made the Jade Emperor suspicious.
"That Monkey King is not trivial, the Buddha didn't say a word, and he probably attaches far more importance to him than the Western Buddhas. ”
The Jade Emperor said.
Taishang Laojun frowned: "Your Majesty is too worried?"
"I hope it's too much, too. ”
The Jade Emperor shook his head: "It's just that I'm afraid it's true this time." ”
The Buddha of the Western Heaven is extremely intelligent, and although the calamities he has experienced are not as good as the Jade Emperor, his supernatural powers are far superior to him.
The Jade Emperor knew in his heart that the Buddha must have seen something, so he would be as conservative as a bottle.
But the Buddha can see that the Jade Emperor, as the master of the Heavenly Dao, can also see something.
The Jade Emperor didn't know what the Buddha saw, but he could see that if Sun Wukong became a Buddha, his mind and supernatural powers might not lose too much to the Buddha.
"That Monkey King is too smart......"
The Jade Emperor sighed.
Sun Wukong is incomparably intelligent, and it is a double-edged sword in his hand, which may hurt himself.
But if it was handed over to someone else, it would be just a single-edged sword - no one knew what kind of impact his wisdom would have on the Three Realms if he joined the Western Heavens.
The Jade Emperor must be vigilant.
The only thing in the world that can make him kill and let go, and who can't use it with confidence, is only that one monkey.
"Forget it......"
The Jade Emperor shook his head and said with a smile: "Fortunately, Sun Wukong has no interest in Buddhism. ”
Taishang Laojun nodded.
