I’m a Big Boss In Uncle Jiu’s World
#1539 - Hou Tu admires Yang Jian very much!
"Chang'e, do you admit your guilt?"
Inside the Yaochi, on the fairy platform, the Jade Emperor sat at the first seat on the right side of the throne, staring at the white moonlight below the platform and questioning in a stern voice.
Chang'e shook her head and said, "I don't know what crime I have committed. Your Majesty, please tell me clearly."
The Jade Emperor said coldly: "As a dignified god in heaven, Taiyin God, you actually went down to the mortal world to meet a man in private. Isn't this a sin?"
Chang'e said, "I was just about to talk about this matter. Your Majesty and the Queen, please listen to my explanation and make the decision for me."
The Jade Emperor's anger paused for a moment, and he didn't understand what the other party meant.
This was clearly a risky and illegal matter, so why did she make it sound like she was being wronged?
The Queen Mother gently patted the Jade Emperor's arm to wake him up from his trance, and then stared into Chang'e's clear black and white eyes and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Chang'e said: "I have come down to earth, but not because I miss the earth, but to seek refuge.
At that time, I had just seen Yao Ji off and was about to return to Guanghan Palace for meditation when suddenly an arrow flew towards me and almost brushed my ear as it shot into the wall of Guanghan Palace.
I pulled out the arrow and saw that it was shot by the shameless villain Pang Meng!
In ancient times, this person had improper thoughts about me, and the meaning of this arrow can be imagined. Because of this, Xiaoxian lost his sense of proportion and quickly fled to the lower world for refuge. "
The emperor and empress looked at each other and saw the anger in each other's eyes.
It was obvious that Pang Meng had deceived them, so that their act of enfeoffment on Pang Meng seemed somewhat foolish.
"Chang'e, do you have any evidence?" Queen Mother asked after a long time.
Chang'e nodded slightly and took out Pang Meng's arrow from her sleeve: "This is the arrow stuck in Guanghan Palace. Your Majesty can find out the truth by using the Haotian Mirror."
Queen Mother: “…”
The Jade Emperor raised his hand and absorbed the sharp arrow into his palm. He didn't need to use the Haotian Mirror to check the cause and effect. He could directly sense Pang Meng's aura from the arrow: "Chang'e, facing the threat, why don't you come to me? Do you still have me, the master of the three realms, in your eyes?"
Chang'e shook her head and said, "I just said it. I was so frightened that I lost my composure and just wanted to stay away from her."
The Jade Emperor was speechless, so he said: "Next time you encounter this kind of situation, remember to come to me directly, and I will be able to protect you and keep you safe."
Chang'e bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Jade Emperor was in a complicated mood and waved his hand, saying, "It happened for a reason. I will not punish you. You can go back first."
Chang'e stood up straight silently: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After a while.
Pang Meng finally flew across 90,000 miles from Kunlun Mountain to Yaochi. He was directly in front of the fairy platform via the pass, and shouted with a face full of grievance:
"Your Majesty, Madam, that Emperor Yang Jian of Fengdu is truly arrogant and lawless. It would be fine if he didn't take me seriously, but he actually didn't take the imperial edict seriously either."
A hint of disgust flashed across the Jade Emperor's eyes, but fortunately he was very shrewd and did not express his dissatisfaction: "What did Yang Jian say?"
Pang Meng said: "I asked him to hand over Chang'e, but he ignored me. I asked him what he did to Chang'e, but he said it was none of my business.
This is even after I showed him the imperial edict. It is obvious that he does not take Your Majesty seriously at all!"
"Are you sure Chang'e is really in the Snow God Cave?" asked the Jade Emperor.
"Of course, I am 100% sure." Pang Meng said firmly.
"Are you sure as hell?"
The Jade Emperor stood up suddenly and smashed the tea bowl on the table at him: "If Chang'e is in the Snow God Cave, then who did the Queen Mother and I just see?"
Pang Meng was hit by a critical strike for no apparent reason. The demonic energy in his body kept surging and he almost vomited blood. However, the pain in his body was far less than the shock in his mind: "Did Chang'e just come to Yaochi?"
"That's right."
In fact, if he had not taken up the position of God of Justice, he would not be held accountable for it. If he had not entered the system, he would naturally not be constrained by the system.
But the problem is that now that he has entered, the situation is completely different.
"Speak now, you are mute. Weren't you very talkative just now? Not only can you talk, but you can also confuse right and wrong!" the Jade Emperor shouted coldly.
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Pang Meng's mind in an instant, and finally, after weighing the pros and cons, he fell to his knees with a thud:
"Your Majesty, this is a pure misunderstanding. The arrow I shot was not threatening at all. I just wanted to tell Chang'e that I, Pang Meng, am back. If it was a threat, why would I just shoot an arrow? Wouldn't it be better to just appear in front of her?"
"You are really eloquent, no wonder you can... Never mind, I don't want to talk about the past anymore, let's talk about the future now."
The Jade Emperor said in a deep voice: "Hear carefully, Pang Meng, you are now the God of Justice in Heaven, representing the sacred majesty of Heaven's rules and regulations.
From now on, you are not allowed to harass Chang'e or set foot on the Moon without permission, otherwise I will punish you severely!"
He originally wanted to mention Pang Meng's betrayal of Houyi, but considering that from Pang Meng's position, he was now equivalent to Houyi in the past, so he stopped talking abruptly.
However, his request left Pang Meng dumbfounded.
What's the meaning?
If the God of Justice is an obstacle between me and Chang'e, then what is the point of my priesthood?
However, facing the furious Jade Emperor, he did not dare to speak out his true feelings.
The main reason was because of his change of status. Who made him take over the position of the God of Justice? Even if he reported it to the leader, the leader would not defend him regardless of right or wrong when he was in the wrong...
Half a month later.
Since Pang Meng was imprisoned in a cage by power and the Moon became his forbidden place, Chang'e's life returned to normal.
Compared with the past, the only difference is that there is one more guardian in Guanghan Palace.
Of course, this is a secret that only she and Yuetu know...
This day.
Kunlun Mountains, Snow God Cave.
Qin Yao stood at the entrance of the fairy stone and welcomed an uninvited guest into the cave. After asking him to sit down, he asked curiously, "How come the Buddha has time to come to my place?"
Tathagata smiled and said, "To be honest, I have something to ask of you."
Qin Yao said politely: "Buddha, please speak."
"Guanyin has done a great job in the Journey to the West. As the Buddha of the Pure Land, I saw it with my own eyes and was happy in my heart. But then I thought that even if the journey to the West is completed, Buddhism can only prosper in the human world and cannot span the three realms. That's why I have this journey." Tathagata said in a gentle voice.
Qin Yao immediately understood.
Tathagata was afraid that Guanyin's achievements would overshadow his own and that her influence in Buddhism would surpass his own in the future, so he decided to do something to consolidate his own reputation and status!
After all, one of them was from the Jiejiao sect and the other from the Chenjiao sect. Even though they belong to the same sect now, competition and rivalry are always there.
For example, if they disagree on something in the future, then they will see who has a higher reputation...
But why would Tathagata come to me for such a thing?
As a member of the Chan Sect, how could I help him suppress Guanyin?
Thinking of this, and then inferring in reverse, Qin Yao thought of the second level.
On the surface, Tathagata came to ask for help from me, but in fact, he just came to say hello to me.
First, don't tear each other apart for the sake of interests and destroy their relationship.
Secondly, it is to determine the standard of fighting without breaking, indicating that he has no intention of fighting evilly, nor does he have the idea of splitting Buddhism.
This Buddhist master really has a good plan...
"What does the Buddha mean?"
"I would like to ask the Emperor to allow Buddhism to preach and educate in the underworld." Tathagata said bluntly.
Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "I can't make the decision on this. You have to go find the Queen Mother Hou Tu."
Tathagata smiled, stood up and said, "Thank you for your advice, Emperor. I will go find Queen Hou Tu now..."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Qin Yao immediately became alert: "Don't go to see the Queen Mother Hou Tu in my name, otherwise I will definitely ruin this matter for you."
Tathagata's smile froze, and he immediately said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, I won't use your name. But I must accomplish this matter. It involves the fundamental interests of Buddhism and myself, so I can't give up."
Qin Yao's expression eased, and he said calmly: "I understand. If you could come to me first instead of acting first and asking for my permission later, I wouldn't deliberately obstruct this matter!"
"Thank you." Tathagata clasped his hands together and said softly.
Qin Yao then sent him out of the cave, and watched his body disappear into the ground, with a smile suddenly appearing on the corner of his mouth.
He was increasingly able to realize what a match made in heaven he and Hou Tu were.
Taking Buddhism today as an example, Tathagata, the Buddha, was forced by Guanyin to take action to enhance his own reputation through political achievements in order to prevent himself from falling from the position of the top leader to a mere stamp of human skin.
This is entirely possible.
Because behind Guanyin is the Chan sect, while behind Tathagata is the Jie sect which was defeated.
If he doesn't live up to his expectations, does he have to rely on Laojun to support him?
In fact, it is difficult to say whether Guanyin’s deliberate planning of the Journey to the West was intended to undermine Tathagata.
And if she really has this idea, fame will become a powerful weapon!
What is the importance of reputation?
The important thing is that you can say no to anyone, which means a veto.
The key point is that one sentence can determine the fate of countless people and change everything.
The important thing is that it can reconstruct power relations, and whoever wins the hearts of the people will win the world.
Having said that, he and Hou Tu did not have such worries.
Hou Tu didn't have to worry about surpassing the other party in fame.
And there is no need to worry about Hou Tu abandoning her when she has done her job.
Just like now, he was sure that Hou Tu would not agree to the Buddhist sect entering the underworld, and would not allow others to shake his position...
Tathagata probably knew this very well, so he had only one choice in the end!
Thinking of this, Qin Yao stood at the door and looked up at the sky.
If the Jade Emperor issued an edict, conferring the title of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, how could he turn a bad thing into a good thing?
At this moment, Emperor Fengdu fell into deep thought...
Eighteen days later.
Another uninvited guest came into the Snow God Cave, and golden light illuminated the dim cave.
"Greetings, Her Majesty." Qin Yao bowed with a smile.
"Something bad has happened."
Hou Tu said solemnly: "The Tathagata reached an agreement with the Heavenly Court. The Jade Emperor appointed Ksitigarbha as the Ksitigarbha King of the Underworld, responsible for saving the sentient beings in hell. Ksitigarbha made a great vow for this, vowing not to become a Buddha until hell is empty."
Qin Yao asked: "What does your Majesty mean?"
"I plan to drive him out." Hou Tu said dissatisfiedly: "The Jade Emperor has obviously fallen into his old habit again, always taking the title of Lord of the Three Realms seriously."
Qin Yao shook his head: "Tathagata's attitude on this matter is very firm. If the queen does this, it is equivalent to forcing him into the Jade Emperor's camp."
Hou Tu frowned and said, "Isn't he colluding with the Jade Emperor now?"
"If he had this in mind, he wouldn't have come to you and me first."
Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "He came to us first and then to the Jade Emperor. It's clear that this is just a mutual use between him and the Jade Emperor. He doesn't want to break up with us completely."
Seeing his rational and calm appearance, Hou Tu gradually calmed down and asked, "What do you think?"
Qin Yao smiled and said: "Accept Dizang, but limit the Buddhist ideas he spreads.
Ideas that are in line with bilateral interests can be spread, but those that are not will not be allowed to spread.
This approach will not provoke Tathagata, nor will it affect our rule.
On the contrary, if used well, Ksitigarbha will become the cornerstone of our rule..."
China's long history means that there is nothing new in the world, and that the answers to most questions can be found in history.
For example, what Dong Zhongshu did in history and the role of Confucianism in rulers.
Interestingly, this is not an isolated case. From the perspective of the rulers, the caste system also has a similar effect.
A big part of the reason why Hinduism was able to defeat Buddhism in India, the birthplace of Buddhism, was because of the caste system.
Just as Dong Zhongshu tampered with Confucianism, the caste system also became one of the tools used by rulers to maintain social order.
Of course, Qin Yao would definitely not learn this thing and make distinctions in Fengdu.
But if we extract its essence and unite with Hou Tu, there will definitely be no problem in suppressing Dizang.
Therefore, he was not afraid of going to the underworld, and even looked forward to it...
At this moment, looking at his wise look, Hou Tu's eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light.
The Emperor Yin whom he had chosen seemed to be extremely talented in political scheming.
In other words, there is no need to worry about these things at all, and there is no need to be afraid of the "invasion" of Buddhism!
"Then I don't care?" Soon, she even said with a smile.
Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "I can't just ignore it. But I'm not going to take care of Dizang. I'll solve this problem. What you need to do is to fight against the evil hand of the Jade Emperor.
We must fight him every time he uses his title as power.
Just like training a dog, if the dog is beaten many times, it will not dare to show its teeth easily. "
Hou Tu: “…”
She had never admired anyone in her life, but now she really admired him.
This is probably what the so-called extraordinary man in the world is like, right?
