Journey to the West: People are in heaven, working from nine to five

Chapter 1997 The Jade Emperor wants to take the throne
  Seeing Tathagata Buddha so happy, Guanyin and others next to him were naturally confused and asked.

"I wonder, Lord Buddha, do you have any clever ideas?"

Tathagata Buddha clasped his hands together and made a profound look, and then he spoke to Guanyin and others beside him.

"It would be too monotonous if it were just a grand ceremony to worship the gods and convince the people of our Buddha's mercy.

Why don't we invite the Jade Emperor and the gods of Heaven to watch the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony? Then let the prince accuse Heaven of his crimes. Wouldn't it be more able to set off the great mercy of the West? "

Guanyin and others are old-fashioned flatterers. No matter what Tathagata Buddha's idea is, they will always flatter him.

"Buddha is really wise."

"Using the Heavenly Court to set off the Western Heaven is so clever. It's so clever."

"Buddha's move will definitely bring disgrace to Heaven and make me famous in the West."

The pats on the back from Guanyin and others made Tathagata even more proud.

"Guanyin, when you go to heaven to invite the Jade Emperor, you must let them go."

"Follow my Buddhist teachings."

Guanyin saluted and accepted the promise, and then rode the clouds towards the heaven.

At this time in the heaven, the Jade Emperor was naturally paying attention to the progress of the situation, and Taibai Jinxing was reporting to the Jade Emperor.

"Your Majesty, Fengxian County has begun preparations for the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. The Prison God has arranged it very well. It is estimated that the evidence will be obtained soon."

"Well, with the Prison God sitting in charge, I am naturally relieved, but thinking about Xitian's actions, I am really angry."

Xitian slandered the Jade Emperor like this. As the Lord of Heaven and the CEO of the Three Realms, how could he not be angry?

If it weren't for the overall situation, the Jade Emperor would really want to mobilize the heavenly soldiers and generals to fight with Xitian, so as to eliminate the evil spirit in his heart.

At this time, Guanyin came to heaven and met the Jade Emperor.

Arriving in front of the Jade Emperor, Guanyin pretended to be polite, put her hands together and saluted the Jade Emperor and said.

"Amitabha, the Jade Emperor is well."

"What's going on when Guanyin comes to my heaven?"

The Jade Emperor didn't have the slightest favorable impression of Guanyin. As the number one eagle and dog in the West, Guanyin often pointed fingers in the heaven.

Because she was known as the Angel of the West, the Jade Emperor and the gods in heaven had to be polite to her on the surface, but secretly they hated her deeply.

"The Jade Emperor has heard that Fengxian County is going to hold a ceremony to worship heaven. The Buddha was grateful for the sincerity of the people in Fengxian County and wanted to go there in person to eliminate disasters and bring blessings.

However, Fengxian County also falls under the jurisdiction of the Three Realms, so the Buddha felt that it was inappropriate for Xitian to act alone, and specially invited the Jade Emperor and the gods of heaven to go with him. "

Although Guanyin spoke very politely, there was already a cunning tone in her words.

The Jade Emperor is not a fool, and he already knows the situation in Fengxian County. This Guanyin obviously came with a conspiracy.

"Guanyin, what you said is wrong. How could the Buddha invite me in this matter?"

The Jade Emperor shook his head and said displeasedly to Guanyin.

"Why is the Jade Emperor angry? Is there anything wrong?"

Guanyin was confused, wondering what the Jade Emperor meant?
  "My Heavenly Court controls the three realms, and all the five continents and seas are under the jurisdiction of Heavenly Court, and Fengxian County is no exception.

The people of Fengxian County held a ceremony to worship the heaven. The heaven they worshiped was not your Western Heaven, but our heaven. "

What the Jade Emperor said was very obvious. Heavenly Court is an official institution, while Xitian is only a stronger religious power at best. There is an essential difference between the two.

The heavens that the people of Fengxian County worship should be Heaven and the Jade Emperor, not the Western Heaven and Buddha. This is the correct answer.

Therefore, for the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, it is only natural and natural for the Jade Emperor and the heavenly gods to go there, because they are the protagonists.

If Xitian and Buddha went there, it would be unjust and inappropriate. If they went there on their own initiative, they would be suspected of overstepping their authority and acting beyond their authority.

Taibai Jinxing also heard the meaning of the Jade Emperor's words, and immediately echoed the Jade Emperor.

"Guanyin, this matter should be about the Jade Emperor inviting you to go to the West, not the West inviting us to the Heaven. Whether you should go to the West depends on the wishes of our Heaven."

Guanyin seemed very embarrassed after hearing what the Jade Emperor and Taibai Jinxing said, because according to the rules, this is indeed the way it should be.

"The Jade Emperor is wise, but I think this seems to be a small matter."

In fact, it is a tacit fact that Xitian is in power in Xiniu Hezhou, so although the Jade Emperor can find reasons in this regard, it is actually not a big deal.

"No, the way of heaven has its own rules and all things have their own laws, so everything must be made clear.

In the sacrificial hall, the Jade Emperor and the gods in heaven must occupy the main seats. You, Xitian, are just guests in the audience. "

Taibai Jinxing said clearly to Guanyin. In fact, of course this was what the Jade Emperor meant, but he himself was not good at saying it. Taibai Jinxing understood it and said it for him.

"this……."

Upon hearing Taibaijinxing's request, Guanyin immediately felt troubled.

If the Jade Emperor and the heavenly gods were to take the main role in the heaven-sacrifice ceremony, and Xitian was just a spectator, then Tathagata Buddha might not be able to tolerate it, and he might not agree.

"If the rules are not followed, such a heaven-sacrifice ceremony will be invalid. We cannot help but not participate, and we must immediately ask them to stop this unruly heaven-sacrifice ceremony."

Seeing Guanyin's hesitation, the Jade Emperor immediately said gloomily.

"The Jade Emperor must not be angry, we just agree."

When Guanyin heard what the Jade Emperor said, she immediately persuaded the Jade Emperor and agreed to the Jade Emperor's request.

Because this sacrificial ceremony is related to the outcome of the disaster in Fengxian County and directly affects the disaster of Journey to the West, there must be no accidents.

If the Jade Emperor and Heaven take action, the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony may not be possible. Compared with the face of Tathagata and Xitian, holding the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is more important.

"That's right. When the time comes, I will definitely bring all the gods in heaven to participate."

After hearing Guanyin agreed to the conditions, the Jade Emperor nodded and expressed his satisfaction.

It's just that Guanyin's face looks ugly now. She won't be able to explain it to Tathagata Buddha when she goes back.

Guanyin returned to Xitian and reported the incident on the journey to heaven.

"Isn't this reasonable? Why should we in the Western Heaven be under the Heavenly Court? Isn't this embarrassing for us?"

Buddha naturally did not want to be wronged and lose face, so he shook his head angrily.

"Buddha clearly saw that it was just a matter of priority and not that important. Besides, what if they occupied the primary position?
  In the end, he was scolded by the prince, criticized by the people, and his dignity and dignity were completely lost. "

Guanyin had no choice but to comfort Tathagata Buddha, asking him to focus on the overall situation.

"It's okay, let them stand better, or they can fall worse."

Tathagata Buddha reluctantly agreed, but his heart was still a little uncomfortable.
