Li Jing returned to Yunlou Palace with vigilance and uneasiness. He was greeted by his servants and told more comprehensively about what happened in Yunlou Palace from another perspective.
Nezha left a message to the old housekeeper before leaving. Nezha should be at Zhenren Taiyi's place at this time, and seemed to want to ask Yuanshi Tianzun for his opinion.
At this moment, it was difficult for Li Jing to even wonder what was happening in heaven.
Emperor Ziwei rebelled with his troops. The two gods of water and fire were sent by Lingxiao Palace to warn against the rebellion in Yunlou Palace. However, they did not expect to offend Nezha, who killed more than half of them, leaving only these heavenly soldiers to become security guards here.
One by one, it seemed that everything had been out of control since he left Heaven.
Li Jing issued a few more orders to restrain the palace people, but after thinking about it, he could no longer sit still and found the four fire ministers guarding Yunlou Palace again.
"Ah?" Wei Huohu was a little surprised to hear such advice from Li Jing.
You must know that these heavenly soldiers were essentially used by the Jade Emperor to prevent the Yunlou Palace from rebelling. The reason why the two sides can maintain the current peace and harmony is because they were frightened by Nezha's powerful strength. From any perspective, the two sides are enemies rather than friends. However, he did not expect that Li Jing would be so generous and let these heavenly soldiers stay in Yunlou Palace to rest.
Now the two tribes of water and fire are leaderless. Compared with Li Jing, they are nothing more than trivial sesame officials. After thinking about it, there seems to be no reason to reject the other party.
The Jade Emperor's will was carried out like this, and it was really hard to see anyone.
After thanking each other, the four Fire Lords began to order the heavenly soldiers to line up and march into Yunlou Palace.
Yunlou Palace is large enough, so that even if the central square can accommodate a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers, it will not look cramped. You must know that when Li Jing and Nezhaguan paid homage to General Fumo and the Great God of San Tan Haihui, ten people did stay here briefly. Ten thousand soldiers and generals from heaven.
So these people settled down in Yunlou Palace easily, but one or two of them were a little bit shy and had no morale. They probably felt too embarrassed.
Even though Li Jing is usually an idle king who doesn't hear anything outside the window, he actually knows much more than ordinary people imagine.
So he has his own judgment on this matter in his heart.
He also has his own persistence and ethics.
The first person to come to the door was not Nezha who had returned from Taiyi Zhenren, but the two marshals who were ordered to take over the water and fire departments, Prince Ma and Wen Qiong.
After receiving the order, they had no time to go to Lingxiao Palace, so they rushed to Yunlou Palace, preparing to take over the two righteous gods of water and fire and the heavenly soldiers.
The two of them had made sufficient psychological preparations before coming. The life and death of Lord Shui Dexing and Lord Huo Dexing was not a big deal. If Yunlou Palace really turned against them, then they would be willing to cut themselves off. We have to have a good deal with this lawless Nezha who has no king, no father, and no law.
But they didn't expect that Li Jing had returned to Yunlou Palace, but Nezha was not there.
However, when they came to Yunlou Palace and saw that there was no one outside the palace, they still felt a little bit in their hearts. Could it be that Yunlou Palace was really so bold and went so far as to kill people and silence them to the point of eradicating the roots?
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm in the end.
It was the son's fault that he did not teach his father. More than half of the heavenly soldiers here were destroyed, and all the four righteous gods of the Water Ministry were killed. The two of them wanted to raise an army to question Li Jing and ask him what he wanted to do. Li Jing's answer was quite bachelor. Now it's going to change today. Are you two planning to tie me up and take me to Lingxiao Palace, or are you going to discuss a countermeasure together?
Marshals Ma and Wen didn't know how difficult the current situation in the court was. They just listened to Li Jing's words and thought he was alarmist.
Immediately afterwards, Li Jing told the two marshals part of what he knew, which shocked them so much that their jaws almost dropped.
Emperor Ziwei really spent a lot of money to win over Yunlou Palace. In fact, he had already told Li Jing a lot about his plans.
Among them are the arrangements of the Lei Department, the Fighting Department, and the Plague Department.
In this case, once Emperor Ziwei gets into trouble, he must come with the determination to win.
Lord Ma immediately blew his beard and glared, and wanted to lead the heavenly soldiers here to the Lingxiao Palace to serve the king, but was stopped by Li Jing.
If you go now, it may be too late.
The two of them were obviously shocked, and for a moment they couldn't think of a better way to break the situation.
Judging from the conversation between the three of them, Marshal Ma and Wen actually did not believe that Yunlou Palace would rebel at all. Not only them, but most of the people in Heaven did not believe that Li Jing was the kind of person who would rebel.
It's just that no one understands that he, the Jade Emperor, has abused me thousands of times, and where does my feeling of treating the Jade Emperor like my first love come from.
But these are not important. What is important is that at this critical moment, King Tota still did not think about adding insult to injury to the Jade Emperor. Instead, he was thinking of ways to solve the problem. This was enough to reflect his loyalty to heaven.
When the three of them were at a loss what to do, Nezha came back.
Nezha was obviously very happy that his father had returned, and he could finally take off the heavy burden on his shoulders. He brought back some news, all from the lineage of Yuanshi Tianzun.
First of all, Master Taiyi was shocked by Emperor Ziwei's rebellion. He immediately asked to see Yuanshi Tianzun, but Yuanshi Tianzun closed the palace and refused to see him, saying that he was in seclusion.
Whether Nezha or Taiyi Zhenren, they immediately judged that such a big thing happened in heaven, but Yuanshi Tianzun happened to be in seclusion. There is a small possibility that Yuanshi Tianzun didn't know how to deal with the matter, and the biggest reason is probably intentional. of.
Taiyi Zhenren took Nezha to the Laojun Palace to ask for an audience with Taishang Laojun. This one was even more important, so he simply went to the lower world. It was said that his green ox was lost and he was looking for it in the lower world.
I'm afraid that the Sanqing can't be pointed out. For the current plan, the only way is to find a solution together with the second generation disciples within Chanjiao.
Guangchengzi died for unknown reasons. Taiyi Zhenren asked Nezha to return to Yunlou Palace first, waiting for him to summon the other twelve immortals of Yuxu to discuss countermeasures.
Nezha actually knew that Guang Chengzi wanted to kill Lin Biao and Nuo Lan, but was tricked into death instead, but he was very keen and did not mention this matter to his master.
But I also know in my heart that it is difficult to hide this kind of thing. As long as a pair of insiders know what happened in Lingxiao Palace at that time, it was Lin Biao and Nuolan who Guangchengzi left shortly after Guangchengzi left. Just died.
But things are still unclear now. He can hide it for a while, and Nezha doesn't plan to tell his father.
However, this is of little help to the difficulties faced by Yunlou Palace. Such is the current situation. Sanqing cannot help, and the internal affairs of Chanjiao cannot be expected in a short time. Everything still depends on Li Jing's choice.
In fact, before the four people had time to discuss specific countermeasures, the ubiquitous informants of the two marshals fed back more comprehensive information about the war.
The last message only had a few words, but it was shocking enough.
The army besieged the Lingxiao Palace.
There was silence in the field. After a long time, Li Jing spoke slowly and said slowly: "Two marshals, please take these heavenly soldiers and hide them."
The two marshals hugged Li Jing's fists and led the troops out of Yunlou Palace without saying anything else.
Either submit to the new heaven, or make a move later, leaving them with really little room for choice.
Both sides kept silent, so accepting the replacement of the old with the new was not impossible, but it was inconsistent with some things in their hearts that they should insist on.
After the two marshals left, Nezha said to Li Jing: "Father, I promised my friend that no matter what happens with Emperor Ziwei, I will not stand with the Jade Emperor."
His tone was quite helpless. If Li Jing was really determined to be loyal to death, he would be really embarrassed.
Li Jing nodded and said, "I never said I would stand on the side of the Jade Emperor, but I can't stand on the side of the Ziwei Emperor."
"What do you mean?" Nezha was stunned.
"As a father, I just stand on the side of truth." Li Jing said.
Nezha understood what his father meant. Perhaps the Jade Emperor had many shortcomings and Ziwei the Great had many things to deal with, but for his father, the truth revealed by this replacement process was far more important than who sat on that chair.
Shortly after the two marshals led their troops and left Yunlou Palace, another guest came to visit.
But it's surprising.
Even Li Jing and Nezha, two physical saints, had to bow to each other to show respect.
The one who came was none other than the great hero of the generation who was originally sitting in the Ziwei Palace and could change everything with his movements - Emperor Ziwei.
Li Jing was more surprised. At such a critical time point, the other party actually condescended to take the time to come to Yunlou Palace, a remote place. It is self-evident that he attaches great importance to Li Jing and his son.
What’s even more unexpected is that when Emperor Ziwei came this time, he neither showed off his great achievements to Li Jing and his son, nor continued to win over the two while the iron was hot, nor did he use any threats or bribes to persuade Yunlou Palace to declare its side at this moment.
He just casually chatted with the father and son for a while, and said that if Yunlou Palace was in trouble, he could ask him for help at any time, and then left Yunlou Palace, as if it was just a visit from an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time.
Li Jing has always been a servant to others, whether in the mortal world or after becoming an immortal, so he naturally saw through the purpose of Emperor Ziwei's visit at a glance.
And he told the whole story to Nezha, who looked confused.
The most important part is that Emperor Ziwei has never forgotten Yunlou Palace. His eyes have been staring at Li Jing and his son. This is a more important thing than his seizure of heaven.
The rest is relatively simple. There is still a strong relationship between the two parties. He will not target Yunlou Palace. Li Jing and his son can just pretend that nothing happened and just do whatever they want. All things will be forgotten since he came here. This is true whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. Without his order in the future, naturally no other gods will target Yunlou Palace.
All these were expressed in the short-lived chat between the parents of both parties, nothing more.
