Chapter Seventy-Three: About Marshal Tianpeng
Yang Zhen came back to his senses, only to find that Kui Mu Wolf was looking at him with a shocked face, his eyes full of doubt. Seeing this, Yang Zhen's eyes turned, and he waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, I suddenly thought of something just now, so I was a little out of shape, forgive me, forgive me!"
"It's okay!" Seeing that Yang Zhen didn't want to say, Kui Mu Wolf didn't continue to ask, but he couldn't find anything to talk about for a while, so there was silence between the two.
Fortunately, at this moment, Yang Zhen's eldest apprentice, Jia Yao, suddenly broke in and shouted, "Master!" and pounced on Yang Zhen.
It turned out that the subordinates of the Tai Bai Xing Mansion saw Yang Zhen coming to find Jia Yao, so they sent someone outside to call Jia Yao back. As soon as Jia Yao heard that the master had come to see her, and she didn't play with the new big sister, after saying hello, she hurried back to the Venus Mansion and saw her master go.
Since she has lived in Heavenly Court for less than a year, Jia Yao is still a child, but she is much taller than the one who first came to Heavenly Court.
"What did you play outside today?" Yang Zhen asked with a smile.
"Today I met a new big sister, she is so beautiful, and she has been playing with Jia Yao. Jia Yao said.
"Jia Yao!" Yang Zhen looked at the Kui Wood Wolf and introduced to Jia Yao: "This uncle is the Kui Wood Wolf in the Twenty-Eight Constellations, he and I picked you up back then, you come over and say hello." ”
"Hello Uncle Kui Wood Wolf!" Jia Yao said obediently.
Kui Wood Wolf's face was full of joy when he heard this, and Da Lu smiled: "Okay! Okay! In a blink of an eye, you have become a big girl, and in a few years, you will get married! When I saw you back then, you were only so old!"
It wasn't until night that Jia Yao had already gone to rest, and Tai Bai Xing rushed back from the Jade Emperor.
When he saw Yang Zhen and Kui Wood Wolf, Tai Bai Xing didn't talk about business directly, but asked about the situation of the two fighting: "Two brothers, how is the victory or defeat?" Alas! If it weren't for the Jade Emperor's sudden summoning of something important, the elder brother would definitely not be able to miss such a wonderful competition. ”
"It's still Brother Yang's superior skills, and he lost again. Kui Mu Wolf smiled bitterly.
When Yang Zhen heard this, he was not modest, and after answering, he asked Tai Bai Xing about the matter: "I have been discussing with the Jade Emperor for so long, but is there anything important?"
Tai Bai Xing nodded and said: "This time Marshal Tianpeng was demoted, and there is no one to lead the 100,000 water army in Tianhe, and the Jade Emperor intends to let Brother Yang succeed you as Marshal Tianpeng and lead the Tianhe water army." However, Emperor Ziwei folded at this time, mentioning that the old Tiangang Great Sage, who had been appointed Marshal of Tianpeng, would succeed him as Marshal of Tianpeng. For this reason, my brother and I discussed with the Jade Emperor for several hours. ”
Yang Zhen is the time when merit is most needed at this time, if he becomes the marshal of Tianpeng, it will definitely be much better than now, maybe the speed of the mall upgrade will be faster. So Yang Zhen hurriedly asked, "What is the result?"
Tai Bai Xing sighed when he heard this, and said: "The advantage of the Tiangang Great Sage is that he followed the previous Marshal Tianpeng for the New Year, worked hard and made great achievements, and was quite well-connected in the Tianhe Water Army. And Brother Yang, your time to come to Heavenly Court is still short, and you have not made any great contributions, if this matter is discussed at the court meeting tomorrow, I am afraid that the hope is not very great. ”
Yang Zhen was also silent when he heard this, of course Yang Zhen knew about his disadvantages, but Yang Zhen also knew where his advantages were, that is, his strength was definitely a hundred times stronger than the so-called Tiangang Great Sage. But today's Heavenly Court is not anyone's strength, whose official is big. The current Heavenly Court pays attention to background, qualifications, merits, and connections, and having strength only means that there is potential.
After thinking about these things clearly, Yang Zhen calmed down his restless heart and said: "Since I can't grasp it well, then forget it this time, anyway, there will be many opportunities for promotion in the future." ”
Yang Zhen put it down, but Tai Bai Xing was in a hurry. If Yang Zhen is not Marshal Tianpeng, wouldn't that mean that Beidou Jiuchen will return to the control of Emperor Ziwei again.
And the manpower on the Jade Emperor's side, except for Yang Zhen, who defeated the previous Marshal Tianpeng, there is really no one who is qualified to compete for this position. Therefore, the meaning of the Jade Emperor and Tai Bai Xing is to let Yang Zhen compete for the position of Marshal Tianpeng, but how to do it depends on Yang Zhen's means.
The best way is, of course, for Yang Zhen to assassinate the Great Sage of Tiangang, so that Yang Zhen can smoothly serve as Marshal Tianpeng. As for the other opposing voices, there is an opportunity to eliminate them in the future.
Looking at Yang Zhen, Tai Bai Xing said: "Brother Yang, this time is a great opportunity, you must not give up." ”
When Yang Zhen heard this, he shook his head and said with a wry smile: "If there is a chance, how can I give up, but no matter what aspect it is, Tiangang Great Sage is the most suitable candidate, my qualifications in Heavenly Court are too shallow, and I don't have much competitiveness at all." ”
"Brother Yang, don't forget, your strength is above the Tiangang Great Sage!" Tai Bai Xing said meaningfully.
Hearing Tai Bai Xing's words, Yang Zhen fell silent. Of course, Yang Zhen knew what Lu Dao Tai Bai Xing meant, but Yang Zhen didn't want to do it. Yang Zhen admits that he is a somewhat selfish person, but Yang Zhen is not without a bottom line.
Of course, Yang Zhen will not be soft on the monsters who kill innocents indiscriminately, but for some people who have no evil deeds, Yang Zhen is still a little uneasy. Although the benefits to Yang Zhen are huge, the bottom line is the bottom line, and if it falls below this line, people will change.
Shaking his head, Yang Zhen said: "It's not a competition to decide who will be the marshal of Tianpeng, what's the use of being strong." If you really don't have a chance tomorrow, it's better to give up. Again, there are still many days ahead, so there is no need to rush this time. ”
Yang Zhen said this, which was equivalent to rejecting Tai Bai Xing's 'meaning', Tai Bai Xing's face was a little ugly at the moment, and even his smile was a little reluctant.
Originally, Tai Bai Xing believed that Yang Zhen was a member of the demon clan and would inevitably retain some of the habits of the demon clan.
As long as you kill someone, you can get benefits, which is too common among the demon clan. Therefore, Tai Bai Xing also made a promise in front of the Jade Emperor, saying that he would definitely be able to convince Yang Zhen. But he didn't expect Yang Zhen to refuse so firmly, and he didn't give Tai Bai Xing a chance to continue to persuade at all.
At this time, Kui Mu Wolf also said: "I also think that Brother Yang does not need to fight for the position of Marshal Tianpeng. Marshal Tianpeng is the commander in charge of the naval army, and Brother Yang is the best at the three flavors of true fire, and the two are completely incompatible. Moreover, the succession of the Great Sage of Tiangang as Marshal of Tianpeng is indeed justified, if Brother Yang forcibly competes with him, the gods of Heavenly Court are afraid and will not agree. ”
Hearing this, Yang Zhen looked at Kui Mu Wolf and shook his head and sighed. This Kui Timber Wolf is really upright, and he hasn't even seen the contradiction between the Jade Emperor and the Ziwei Emperor until now. Although due to the hatred of his brothers, Kui Mu Wolf did not have any good feelings towards Emperor Ziwei, but he did not anger Emperor Ziwei's generals because of this, this kind of person is simply a little cute.
