Journey to the West from Daqin
Page 433
Just when some immortals questioned Li Jue's lack of strength and his humble status as a mortal, Li Jing, the always taciturn military general in the heavenly court, stepped forward.
Li Jing, the Heavenly King of Tota, cupped his hands and said, "The general feels that what His Majesty said is very true. Li Jue has the power to shake the sky, and he deserves the title of Heavenly King."
Wu Quxing was about to taunt, but was pulled back by other gods around him, and Taibai Jinxing also came forward to support Jade Emperor's decision.
Civil servants and military generals all took the lead in supporting the Jade Emperor's decision, and everyone else knew that the general situation could not be changed, so they all agreed.
It's just that many people always think about it, and if they don't understand it, they can't accept it in their hearts.
But they also had to accept this fact, because the Jade Emperor opened the golden mouth, which can be said to be a promise, and it cannot be changed.
Moreover, the Jade Emperor also asked Chen Tianshi to make an imperial decree on the spot, and the sealing of Li Jue was officially recognized.
However, although the Jade Emperor appointed Li Jue as the heavenly king of the country, he did not make any changes to his actual official position.
He is still the executioner among the supervisors.
However, Li Jue's identity in the Supervisory Division would appear very strange.
Because Zhang Daoling and other great celestial masters are not as good as Li Jue in terms of titles, but they can manage them.
This may be mutual checks and balances, and at the same time, the Jade Emperor wanted to express the intention of the civil officials to suppress the generals.
Li Jing, the king of Tota, who is extremely deep in the city, must have understood this point, so supporting him is also a way of keeping a low profile for himself.
And Taibai Jinxing naturally wanted civil servants to suppress generals, so he also supported it.
The matter came to an end temporarily, the Jade Emperor also asked Li Jue to step down, and all the immortal families also retreated.
For a while, civil servants circled Taibaijinxing, and military generals circled King Tota.
Wu Quxing said: "Li Jing, why do you support that boy with a yellow mouth to become the king? How can he be worthy of the word "king of heaven!?"
Li Jing said: "Lord Dou, don't you understand the Jade Emperor's intentions? He wants Wen Cheng to suppress generals, and this cannot be changed."
Dou Rong, the star of martial arts, said: "Of course I know that this matter cannot be changed, but I will definitely not accept surrendering so quickly."
Li Jing said: "Actually, it's not a surrender, it's just following the trend. Another point, Li Jue's identity should be at the level of the emperor of heaven, but the Jade Emperor arranged for him to be the king of heaven. drop!"
Wu Quxing was stunned for a moment, and seemed to understand.
As the side-by-side king of the Great Qin Empire in the mortal world, Li Jue is indeed equivalent to the emperor of Nanhua, and belongs to the ranks of heavenly emperors.
However, the Jade Emperor has not given him a qualitative reward for a long time, which is not appropriate after all, and even more unreasonable.
Now taking this opportunity to directly designate him as the Heavenly King, it seems that Li Jue has been promoted to multiple levels, but in fact, his status does not match, and his level is lowered instead.
Wu Quxing smiled, "In this case, it's Li Jue who is at a loss, hehe, I see how Li Jue can bear this dumb loss."
Li Jing shook his head. Normally speaking, Li Jue was at a loss because he did not become the Emperor of Heaven.
But in fact, being a heavenly king is the most suitable for Li Jue, because he does not have the strength to match the heavenly emperor.
After becoming a heaven and earth, he will definitely be questioned by people, and he will be constantly provoked and assassinated. Being a king of heaven can protect him comprehensively.
the other side.
Many civil servants surrounded Li Changgeng, they also asked the same question as Wu Quxing, and they also got an explanation.
But Li Changgen actually had a deeper consideration, that is, he felt that the Jade Emperor made Li Jue the Heavenly King because he didn't want Li Jue to descend to earth again.
As long as Li Jue stays in the sky obediently, then with the help of the gods and generals sent down from the heaven, the Great Qin Empire can definitely be overthrown.
When the time comes without the Great Qin Empire as its foundation, you feel that the golden body of the temple will naturally be overthrown, and his position as the king of heaven will naturally be lost.
So what is given to Li Jue now is only temporary. Once the world returns to the right track, everything about Li Jue will be erased!
but.
This time Li Changgeng guessed wrong.
The Jade Emperor has seen Li Jue's strength, and knows that Li Jue is no longer a mortal, but a real golden fairy!
With the strength of Jinxian, it is more than enough to be named the king of heaven.
Moreover, even if the Great Qin Empire falls, Li Jue's status as the Heavenly King will definitely not change.
And Jade Emperor is doing this now just to stabilize Li Jue, a talent.
He not only hopes that the Great Qin Empire will fall, but also hopes to harvest the talent of Li Jue.
An ordinary person who can grow to such an astonishing level in just a few years is definitely the talent that the Jade Emperor wants to find.
But now the Jade Emperor is more determined to push Sun Wukong to the side of Buddhism in exchange for the support of Buddhism.
Originally, he was a little bit reluctant.
But now if Li Jue is kept by his side and Sun Wukong is pushed out, there seems to be no loss.
Because he felt that Li Jue had more potential than Monkey King!
Li Jue was named the Heavenly King, and no other rewards were given to him, because he didn't want Li Jue to be too eye-catching, which would cause competition among various forces!
The Jade Emperor also kept Li Jue, and even summoned him in Tongming Hall instead.
The Tongming Hall is equivalent to the Jade Emperor's bedroom plus study, which is an extremely private place, and only the real ones can enter.
The Jade Emperor's move was to let Li Jue see his sincerity.
As soon as they met, the Jade Emperor smiled and said, "Do you hate me about the matter in Lingxiao Palace?"
Li Jue said: "I dare not."
The Jade Emperor nodded slightly, and then there was a hot gold sticker in his hand, saying: "This is the invitation card for the Peach Blossom Fair in Yaochi. The Queen Mother of the West has given some places in the Heavenly Court. I think you are qualified to go!"
Chapter 420 The sage refines Tianji tea, and the Jade Emperor wins over the Palace of Heavenly Kings
After taking the invitation card, Li Jue looked at it carefully, but he was still a little puzzled.
"Your Majesty, the person who received this invitation is either rich or noble, and has a high status, so it's not appropriate to give it to a small minister?"
"Besides, I'm still in the position of a strongman in the Peach Blossom Club in Yaochi. I haven't made an inch of merit, so how can I sit in a high position and enjoy my achievements?"
The Jade Emperor said: "With your status, you can get this invitation card, so don't shirk it, remember, I am very optimistic about you!"
The Jade Emperor smiled slightly, and at the same time asked his maid to bring him a pot of tea, and asked Li Jue to taste it.
Li Jue had a strange expression on his face, and his heart was pounding.
He really couldn't figure it out, the Jade Emperor wanted to harm him several times, and also wanted him to go to heaven instead of letting him get entangled in mortal affairs.
How could he suddenly change his temper, not only to invite him to show his face in front of celebrities and celebrities, but also to treat him with good tea and wine.
He just took a sip, and he felt refreshed, as if he could achieve enlightenment anytime, anywhere, and he seemed to have a deeper comprehension of the supernatural powers that he had comprehended in the Water Curtain Cave.
Drinking this fairy tea has such a wonderful effect.
Li Jue was overjoyed, and poured a cup of tea into his stomach with a single brain, and immediately felt that his mental state and mental outlook were completely renewed.
He was still a little worried about whether the Jade Emperor would poison the tea, but after thinking about it carefully, it was absolutely impossible for the Jade Emperor to do such a vile thing.
So he drank all the tea in one go, and after drinking it, he realized that the wonder of the tea was even better than he had imagined.
The supernatural powers and spells he had practiced in the Water Curtain Cave were only a half-knowledge, at most they were beginners or Xiaocheng. With his original comprehension, if he wanted to go to the next level, it would be impossible to practice for thousands of years. impossible.
But now it's just a pot of tea, which saves him thousands of years of enlightenment.
Li Jue was overwhelmed with surprise, he filled up the tea without making a fuss, and poured it into his stomach hungrily.
Even the tea leaves were chewed and swallowed.
The maidservants couldn't help covering their mouths and giggling when they saw it. It was the Jade Emperor's glaring at them that made them restrain themselves a little.
The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "This tea is called Tianji tea, and I got it from Yuqing Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun, and the Tianji tree in Yuanshi Tianzun's hand can only produce three catties of tea in 3000 years, and it takes 300 years to produce three catties of tea. It’s time to fry it to three or two.”
"In the entire Three Realms, there are no more than one person who owns Tianji Tea, but I only have 3 catties and 6 days of Ji Tea. Even if I don't want to drink it on weekdays, I can only use it to entertain the people I value."
Li Jue's heart fluttered, he stopped drinking tea, looked at the Jade Emperor carefully, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, I am so terrified."
The Jade Emperor smiled, and asked someone to give Li Jue half a catty, and said, "Take these eight taels of tea and drink it well. Drinking a sip of tea can prolong your life for a hundred years, and it can also increase your understanding by three points. To understand supernatural powers and spells, drinking Tianji tea is the best!"
Li Jue was immediately overjoyed, but he still wanted to refuse on the surface, and he dared not accept it even if he didn't get rewarded for his merits.
Under the Jade Emperor's repeated rewards, he reluctantly accepted it.
In fact, he was already happy in his heart, because although he obtained the supernatural powers and spells through the Yin-Yang Life and Death Scroll, he could directly comprehend the Dacheng realm.
but.
The magical powers he has practiced outside need to rely on his own understanding, and his understanding is not too outstanding, so it will be very difficult to practice.
That's why he practiced eighty-nine profound arts in Water Curtain Cave, as well as Dapin Tianxian Jue and somersaulting clouds, all of which were only practiced to the beginning or the Hinayana.
Now that he has Tianji tea, his practice will definitely increase day by day, not only this time, he will be able to improve his comprehension of supernatural powers and spells to a higher level.
In fact, in terms of his comprehension of the realm of practice, it is absolutely as if there is divine help.
How many people have enough magic power and Taoism, but they still can't raise their own cultivation level, because they don't have enough understanding of the next level.
And Li Jue's comprehension of the Golden Immortal Realm was actually not deep enough. During this period of time, he kept comprehending the Golden Immortal Realm just to hone his magic power.
Now that he has Tianji tea, his understanding of today's realm can be even more profound.
Li Jue was secretly happy, put away the Tianji tea, and looked around to see if there were any good things in the Tongming Palace.
The Jade Emperor smiled and said: "You don't need to look at it, there are indeed many good things in Zhen's Tongming Temple, but if you want to take them away, you have to show enough value."
Li Jue was embarrassed, he didn't expect that Jade Emperor would see through his little thoughts.
He faltered and said: "I don't know what His Majesty means. I just want to see if the Tongming Palace is safe enough, and there is no other meaning."
The Jade Emperor chuckled and said: "You must be very curious, why did I make you the Heavenly King, but didn't promote you to an official position."
Li Jue quickly waved his hands and said, "Your Majesty's deeds have deep meanings, and I only respect and approve of them, and never dare to have any doubts."
"Besides, I was born as an executioner in the mortal world, and what I do is beheading business. It is only natural to go back to the old business after coming to heaven, and it will make me feel more cordial."
The Jade Emperor scrutinized Li Jue's expression carefully. With his mastery of the emperor's mind and his insight into people, anyone who wanted to lie in front of him would be playing tricks.
He could tell that Li Jue was not lying.
This made the Jade Emperor a little unconfident, because according to his guess, you feel that there will be some resentment in your heart, and you will definitely feel that you are looking down on him if you are promoted to a title but not to an official position.
What he wanted was Li Jue's resentment, and only by asking for something could he give something, hold Li Jue firmly in his hands, and gradually develop into a confidant.
But the Jade Emperor didn't expect that Li Jue seemed to love the job of executioner very much, and he didn't show any impatience or rejection.
