Journey to the West, this Sun Wukong is too persuasive

Chapter 40 Qitian and Zhenwu

Inside the Lingxiao Palace.

Just listen to Taibai Jinxing's last words: "What I said is supported by evidence and witnesses. Please make it clear to your majesty that Sun Wukong is indeed innocent."

True Lord Yousheng also said: "I can testify."

After hearing this, all the immortals thought it was incredible. In less than two days, the lower world had clearly investigated the case involving the East China Sea and the underworld. This Sun Wukong is quite capable, and he is not just some cruel guy who only knows how to fight and kill. Demon King.

The Jade Emperor said: "Now that we have found out, which god will subdue the demons from the lower world?"

Several marshals and generals immediately appeared in the class.

Li Jing, the king of the pagoda, said: "Your Majesty, I am a humble minister. Please order me to surrender this monster."

Nezha, the marshal of Zhongtan, said: "Your Majesty, I would like to lead troops down to the lower realm!"

Binlinggong Huang Tianhua said: "Your Majesty, I would like to capture the six-eared macaque in the lower world."

Longde Xingjun Hong Jin said: "Your Majesty, if I ask you to go down to the lower realm, you will catch the six-eared macaque and bring him to justice!"

There are several other divine generals who also requested orders in this way.

The Jade Emperor looked down at the immortals with no expression on his face and said: "Go to Binglinggong's lower realm and drive the gods on earth to track down the six-eared macaque."

Huang Tianhua hesitated for a moment, but still kowtowed and said goodbye, and went to the lower world.

"Interesting, interesting." Monkey King scratched his face.

Even if he didn't understand officialdom, he could see that there was something wrong with these gods. They seemed to be competing for the opportunity to subdue demons in the lower realms, but they were actually competing for something else.

After the Jade Emperor selected Bingling Gong, he also changed the arrest to tracing.

At this time, the Jade Emperor cast his eyes on him again and said softly: "Sun Wukong has proven his innocence and deserves to receive the immortal robe. Where do you think he should become an official?"

The immortal officials and generals who were scrambling just now fell silent one by one.

Even if Sun Wukong proves his innocence, they don't think they can capture a powerful and capable Daluo Jinxian.

In the silence, the Jade Emperor raised his hand and knocked on the Nine Heavens throne.

Below, Lord Wu Quxing stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, there are many officials in every palace and palace in the Heavenly Palace. Only the Royal Horse Supervisor lacks a main hall to take charge of affairs."

Taibai Jinxing's expression changed, and he came closer and whispered: "Wu Quxing asked him to take care of the horses? I'm afraid he won't."

Wu Quxingjun waved his hands and said with a smile: "You are not young anymore!"

Before he could return to the class, a hand suddenly grabbed his arm. When he turned around, he saw it was Sun Wukong, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Then Sun Wukong laughed and asked, "Isn't this official a young man?"

Wuqu Xingjun strives to uphold the dignity of Xingjun: "It's so big!"

But Sun Wukong suddenly sneered and came closer and said, "Hey! Do you really think that Old Sun doesn't understand the officialdom of heaven?"

Wu Quxingjun was so frightened that he wanted to retreat, but couldn't break free. He panicked and said, "What do you want to do?"

"Old Sun is in a good mood today, let's spare you this doggy official for now!" Sun Wukong let go of him and raised his hands towards the top of the hall: "I wonder what kind of official title your Majesty wants to give to Old Sun?"

The Jade Emperor looked expressionless and asked, "What kind of official do you want to be?"

"Your Majesty is in charge of the three realms and is the greatest official in heaven and earth. He must be generous." Sun Wukong scratched his hands and said with a smile, "I just want to be the Monkey King with a lower official rank than you."

"Bold!" A god came out and scolded.

"Sun Wukong, why don't you bow down quickly and apologize, and beg His Majesty to spare your life!" Some immortal officials hurriedly persuaded him.

Sun Wukong looked around and saw that all the immortals had different expressions, some were angry, some were panicked, some were gloating about their misfortune, but he was even happier.

"Your Majesty, Old Sun hasn't finished speaking yet." He raised his hand upwards again, "Old Sun likes to be free and at ease, so please Your Majesty, please grant me the title of Monkey King with a higher official rank, but no salary. You don’t have to worry about trivial matters all day long.”

Official or salary?All the immortals looked at each other, what on earth is this monkey going to do?
Carefree?Who believes it!

Although they couldn't understand it, they felt a little relieved that it would be fine if they didn't take power.

The Jade Emperor above also spoke: "Sun Wukong, because of your merits in investigating the case, I will declare you a Monkey King today, but heaven is not a free and easy place, and there can be no official or salary.

No matter how big or small you are, just go to the Royal Horse Prison and be in charge of the main hall, so that you won't get into trouble. "

"Thank you, thank you so much." Sun Wukong didn't say anything else. The Jade Emperor had already said this, and if he refused again, it would be a bit disrespectful.

Moreover, this is also the advice given by senior netizens.

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion - don't be too small, get the third-level treasure chest]

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion - become the Monkey King in name only and obtain the fourth-level treasure chest]

When Taibai Jinxing went to ask him to go to heaven, he asked senior netizens on Zhihu what God should pay attention to.

I got two suggestions at the time, and now I'm finally done.

After thanking the Jade Emperor, Sun Wukong noticed that the faces of some immortal officials and generals were not very good-looking.

"Hey, there is competition for such a small official?"

He remembered what a senior netizen said before about the problem of the establishment of heaven. The sky is full of immortal gods, and it is difficult to find vacancies.

Even if someone commits a crime, as long as it is not a heinous crime, it is customary to go down to earth for reincarnation. When he comes back, he will basically be reinstated or transferred to another position.

Just like King Guang of Qin, after he offended the public, he was only punished for hundreds of reincarnations.

A life of 30 years means a total of 3000 years.

And with King Ksitigarbha as his backer, when King Qin Guang's reincarnation ends, he may still be a high official in the underworld. After all, the seat of Pluto in the first palace of the underworld is still vacant.

"So this is officialdom." Sun Wukong had a realization. In the past, he only knew what officialdom was from his senior netizens, but now he truly understands it.

But he quickly put all this behind him. Regardless of intrigues and plots, he just wanted to be free and at ease.

Just as I was thinking about it, the Jade Emperor above the main hall spoke again: "Where is the Blessing Lord?"

The Holy Lord Blessing held the sword in his hand and stepped forward to salute.

The attention of the immortals also moved away from Sun Wukong. They were just curious about how the Lord Yousheng, who rarely appeared, came to attend the court meeting and testified for Sun Wukong.

Just listen to the Jade Emperor's majestic words: "Yousheng Zhenjun has been guarding Beitianmen for many years because of his meritorious service. Now that he has become a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, he will be promoted to the position of emperor and become the Zhenwu Great Emperor."

After hearing this, the expressions of all the immortals changed. When they looked at Zhenwu, most of them were envious, but some still lowered their heads.

Zhenwu stood proudly in front of the hall, ignoring the gazes of many people, and saluted again: "My lord, Zhenwu, thank you very much, Your Majesty."

Sun Wukong looked on and scratched his face, but he was robbed of the limelight!

But he was not annoyed at all, he just felt that this was true majesty.

The Monkey King who is coming is not as powerful as he is after all.

Later, the Jade Emperor sent Lord Mu Dexing to send him to the Royal Horse Prison to take up his post, and then dispersed the court meeting.

All the immortals left Lingxiao Palace with complicated emotions.

Sun Wukong took office happily, because the Jade Emperor finally ordered the officials to make preparations to build a Qitian Palace for him on the right side of Pantaoyuan.

The Immortal Mansion will be completed soon, which is very exciting.

　Guys, please keep reading and don’t stop. Thank you!
