Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

The Jade Emperor was silent.

He sat on the dragon chair and looked straight at Li Jue.

And Li Jue stood where he was, looking at the Jade Emperor, as if he was fearless.

Finally, the Jade Emperor said, "Okay, you can go back, if this matter has a final result, I will definitely tell you."

All the immortals looked at each other in blank dismay, extremely shocked.

Taibai Jinxing was also stunned, not understanding why the Jade Emperor didn't take out the magic weapon.

Zhang Lingguan was thoughtful.

Li Jue was also a little puzzled, but it would be best if the Jade Emperor let him go.

As long as he left the Lingxiao Palace today, even if he found out the so-called results in the future, he could deny it.

Li Jue was actually a little guilty, because it was indeed he who played the game with Monkey King, and the three old monsters from Shituoling entered the game, and he tricked them.

But only he and Sun Wukong knew about this matter, and no one else would know about it, unless it was a saint who surpassed Li Jue's cognition.

Maybe the saint has some means to know the plot of the two of them, but will the saint intervene in this kind of thing?

Li Jue felt that the possibility was unlikely.

If such a trivial matter also requires the saint to take action, then the saint will be very busy.

But Li Jue didn't know why the Jade Emperor didn't take out the magic weapon, unless the Jade Emperor didn't have the magic weapon at all or there was something unspeakable about it.

But since the Jade Emperor didn't take out the magic weapon, it would be best but at least he is innocent now.

After leaving Lingxiao Temple, even if the Jade Emperor took out the magic weapon, he would not be able to prove that he was lying.

Li Jue cupped his fists towards the Jade Emperor and the immortal family, and then said: "If you feel that I have made a mistake, you can dismiss me from office. Even if I don't want the title of Heavenly King, I will never admit to this crime." .”

All the immortals looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.

The Jade Emperor said: "Li Tianwang, you go back to rest first, this matter has not yet been settled, if you are dismissed from office just because you doubt you, it will appear that I am too incompetent."

"However, because you have doubts, your performance in this matter is meritorious, but you cannot be rewarded."

Li Jue smiled. If this matter can be exposed, everyone is happy. He doesn't expect any reward at all.

Since the Jade Emperor said that he is still in a state of doubt, and that he has done nothing, it would be best.

Li Jue cupped his hands again, then turned and left.

The inside of Lingxiao Palace exploded in an instant. Li Jue didn't use his divine sense to sweep over, but he had a good ear and could hear their discussions.

All the immortals persuaded the Jade Emperor one after another, and took out magic weapons to prove Li Jue's guilt.

However, some immortals believed that what Li Jue said and did in this trip was remarkable.

Although things are too coincidental, if he really tried his best to resist monsters.

However, after repeated defeats and repeated battles, he was not rewarded or encouraged. Instead, he doubted him, which is chilling.

Therefore, a small number of immortals begged for rewards for Li Jue, and some immortals stood in a neutral position and asked the Jade Emperor to continue to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The Jade Emperor nodded, and ordered to continue to investigate the matter thoroughly. At the same time, he sent someone to invite Monkey King, and they wanted to continue to interrogate him.

Tongming Hall.

The Jade Emperor specially summoned Taibai Jinxing and Zhang Lingguan. Seeing their puzzled expressions, his expression was very calm.

"Are you wondering why I didn't take out the magic weapon?"

Taibai Jinxing clasped his hands and said: "Your Majesty has an attitude in how he behaves and does things. Naturally, there are His Majesty's reasons. I dare not doubt it."

The Jade Emperor said: "You are all my confidantes, if you have doubts, just say it, don't be hypocritical with me."

Taibai Jinxing then said: "Your Majesty has the Qimen Eight Treasures Lingpan in his hand. If someone has evil intentions, words and deeds that are not in line with the way of heaven, a warning will be issued."

"If Li Jue's words and deeds are inconsistent, the Qimen Eight Treasures Lingpan will definitely warn you. Your Majesty only needs to take out the magic weapon to prove whether what Li Jue said is true."

Zhang Lingguan nodded and said, "Li Jue's words are impeccable. It's impossible to see whether he's lying or not, but he can't see the slightest sincerity either."

"That's why Chen and the others always thought that he was probably lying. It's scary for a mortal to be able to calculate things to such an extent."

The Jade Emperor said: "He is not a mortal now."

Then he took out a black tortoise shell spirit disk from his sleeve, which was the so-called Qimen Eight Treasure Spirit Disk, and each tortoise shell had a strange rune on it.

The Jade Emperor said: "This magic weapon is not always effective. I have always used it to measure whether Li Jue's words and deeds are consistent with the outside, but it has never responded."

Taibai Jinxing and Zhang Lingguan looked puzzled, but at the same time secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The Jade Emperor said: "What's more, it is impossible for people to confess guilt with just a magic weapon. There must be conclusive evidence and witnesses, otherwise, trying to convict a heavenly king is tantamount to nonsense. .”

Taibai Jinxing said: "Your Majesty is wise, the old minister is going to collect evidence now, and the world will definitely be restored to peace and innocence."

Zhang Lingguan said: "The old minister also immediately sent people to look for the traces of the three old monsters in Shituoling, and they are also communicating with Buddhism. If there are any traces of them, they will be reported to His Majesty as soon as possible."

The Jade Emperor nodded, and then ordered the two to retreat.

When there was no one around, the Jade Emperor looked at the Qimen Eight Treasures Lingpan in front of him, his eyes flickering.

"Li Jue, you are really daring. You dared to set up such a huge situation. Not only did you deceive me, but you also dragged Buddhism into trouble."

It turned out that this Qimen Eight Treasures Lingpan could really detect whether Li Jue's words and deeds were consistent. At least according to the Jade Emperor's judgment, what Li Jue said was definitely not true.

The reason why the Jade Emperor didn't say that this magic weapon worked in front of the two old officials was because this magic weapon was too heaven-defying. If it proved that Li Jue's words and deeds were inconsistent, the officials would not dare to use it in the future. Talk no more.

Monarchs and ministers should keep a certain distance when getting along. The courtiers cannot completely guess the mind of the superior, and even if the superior can guess the mind of the courtier, they cannot let the courtier know.

It's just that although the Jade Emperor knew that Li Jue had tricked him, he didn't know how Li Jue did it, let alone how many flat peaches Li Jue and Monkey King ate, and how many the three monsters took away.

After all, it is difficult to conclude this matter, because it is too perfect and everything is too coincidental.

When the golden-winged roc appeared in the Pantao Garden, packed up the peaches with two cylinders of yin and yang, and fled the scene, the most frightening thing was that many heavenly soldiers and generals lost track of him.

Even if the golden-winged roc confronts Li Jue in Lingxiao Palace next time, it will not be able to prove its innocence.

So there is no proof of this matter. Even if the golden-winged roc and the green lion and white elephant were caught, it proved that Li Jue and Monkey King set up a trap to entrap them, and the fact that the golden-winged roc plundered the Peach Garden could not be washed away.

At most, Li Jue and Sun Wukong would be charged with leading wolves into the house.

And this matter can be big or small, because the golden-winged roc and the green lion and white elephant did indeed fight against the many heavenly soldiers and generals in the heavenly court and plunder the peach garden.

The Jade Emperor couldn't understand how Li Jue managed to set up such a perfect overall situation.

Because there are too many uncontrollable factors in this matter, if any accident occurs, the matter will be exposed.

First of all, if the golden-winged roc hadn't kept saying that the blue lion and white elephant stole the flat peach, people wouldn't doubt the blue lion and white elephant.

Secondly, if the blue lion and white elephant hadn't caught up with the Heavenly Court and stopped many heavenly soldiers and generals, the golden-winged roc would have no chance to take away the flat peach.

There is also the golden-winged roc who fought against many heavenly soldiers and generals outside the Nantian Gate, but suddenly broke free from the siege, came from behind, entered the flat peach garden, and plundered the flat peaches.

If any step goes wrong, Li Jue's layout will lose everything.

That's why the Jade Emperor had a headache. He couldn't figure out how Li Jue arranged such a perfect overall situation. Even he couldn't do it.

I am afraid that only true saints can be counted as exhaustive.

Could it be said that Li Jue has reached the height of a saint? That is impossible!

The Jade Emperor has a headache here, how can he think of all that happened, from the time Li Jue and Monkey King stepped into Shituoling, the layout has been different from theirs.

Everything is so coincidental, everything is common sense.

Because of this, the luck of the two people was overwhelming, which led to the direction of the matter, going in a perfect direction beyond their imagination, but in line with common sense.

Not to mention that the Jade Emperor couldn't figure it out, even Li Jue and Monkey King were a little confused afterwards.

Soon the Jade Emperor stopped thinking about it, because Sun Wukong had been taken to Lingxiao Temple, and some immortals came to invite him to come forward.

Li Jue did not return to the Palace of Heavenly Kings, because immediately after leaving the Palace of Lingxiao, someone came to ask him to go to the Demon Slayer.

Kill the monster.

Zhang Daoling and Xu Jingyang had been waiting for a long time, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Li Jue appear.

"Li Tianwang is really lucky, he was able to get out of this." Zhang Daoling said with a smile.

Li Jue naturally knew what he was talking about, he chuckled and said, "I'm not afraid of the shadow slanting in my body, and no one else will throw dirty water on me for things I haven't done."

"His Majesty the Jade Emperor is aware of the details, so he can restore my innocence, and of course I can get away with it."

The two old masters nodded slightly.

Li Jue said with a smile: "On the contrary, the two elders sent people to wait outside the Lingxiao Palace. They seem to be more confident than me. I can come out of the Lingxiao Palace alive."

The two smiled slightly.

Xu Jingyang pointed it out: "It's not that Lao Zhang was worried that you would be slandered by trumped-up charges, so he sent someone to wait outside Lingxiao Hall. If there is something wrong, I implore His Majesty to forgive you on the grounds that the Demon Slayer still needs you. "

Li Jue was moved, although he knew that Zhang Daoling and Xu Jingyang's method was completely useless, but their actions moved him very much.

He said gratefully: "Thank you two bosses, if you have any tasks, please feel free to entrust them to me, I will say nothing."

Zhang Daoling suddenly laughed, "Then you really need to work hard for those who are capable. A goblin has just been sent from the prison here, and you need to deal with it."
