3637 Chapter 3638-great help
Under the gazes of the gods, the group slowly entered the palace.
The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother sat on the main seats in the center of the hall without any suspense.
The seven celestial maidens stood on both sides of them, responsible for serving the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
Li Jing was sitting on the left side of the throne, right next to the Jade Emperor.
!!Just by looking at the seating arrangement, one could tell that Li Jing was the number one person in the heavenly court, just below the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother.
“Phew …”
Chen Xiaobei let out a sigh of relief.
At this point, the most powerful people in the heavenly court were all sitting in this Hall.
With a glass of wine in his stomach, the entire Hall would quieten down. Then, Chen Xiaobei would be able to go to the Jade Lake divine Palace to save the people. Even if a battle broke out, it would not attract too many powerful enemies.
Chen Xiaobei waited in silence.
“All ministers, please take your seats!”
After the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother sat down, they waved their hands, and the gods returned to their seats.
Then, the Jade Emperor raised his wine cup and said with a smile, ” “I have two important things to announce in this banquet!”
Obviously, in order to not expose himself, the Jade Emperor must have made up some reasons so that no one would suspect this banquet.
“First, I suddenly gained enlightenment recently, and my Dao heart has become more complete and clear! Therefore, we set up a banquet to celebrate and share our joy with the ministers!”
This excuse sounded a little far-fetched, but no one could find fault with it.
After all, only the Jade Emperor himself knew whether his Dao heart was perfect or not. No one else could tell.
&Quot; second, the celestial heavens hasn’t held a banquet for a long time. The atmosphere is heavy and oppressive. All the officials work hard all day and have little free time. I can’t bear to see this! &Quot;
“Our biggest enemy, Chen Xiaobei, has not ascended yet. We can use this opportunity to rest and relax! When he ascends to the heavenly realm, we’ll be very busy!”
Originally, the first reason was a little farfetched, but with the second reason, the effect suddenly became better.
No one could figure out Chen Xiaobei’s current situation.
The Jade Emperor played dumb and said that Chen Xiaobei had not ascended yet. He was in a good mood and wanted everyone to rest and relax.
This was a very reasonable thing to do.
More importantly, the Jade Emperor was pretending that he did not know that Chen Xiaobei had already ascended.
Even if Chen Xiaobei made a big deal out of it, the Jade Emperor had the gods as witnesses and could stay out of it.
“This old fox is so smart!”
Chen Xiaobei saw everything and laughed in his heart.”Unfortunately, no matter how good your excuse is, you can’t imagine what’s going to happen next!”
“Pour the wine!”
The Jade Emperor indifferently ordered.
The seven celestial maidens immediately poured a cup of poisoned wine for the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.
“All ministers, raise your cups!”
The Jade Emperor raised the wine cup in his hand high and said in a serious tone, ” “This first cup of wine, Zhen will first toast all the ministers! I hope all of you will drink this cup and not disappoint!”
These words were no longer urging him to drink, but rather forcing him to drink!
Whoever didn’t drink it would be a wet blanket to the Jade Emperor!
It was clear that the Jade Emperor still hoped that Chen Xiaobei would be able to save the people and leave safely, and not throw Xu Fu out.
Therefore, the Jade Emperor naturally had to think of a way to make everyone drink, and to make them drink more.
This was the only way to delay everyone.
Because of this, no one would be able to escape the first cup of wine.
“We dare not refuse a toast from Your Majesty!”
The gods responded one after another, filling up their wine cups, standing up, and raising their wine cups high with both hands.
“Shit!”
Chen Xiaobei’s heart tightened.
At this moment, there were still many people in the hall who had not raised their glasses.
Because they didn’t have the qualifications!
The first was the seven celestial maidens! Then, there were the hundreds of fairies scattered in the hall!
They were all in charge of serving people and didn’t have any deity positions, so they naturally didn’t have the right to drink.
This was very awkward!
If these Palace maids did not drink, they would immediately become restless once the gods fainted.
By then, a large number of celestial soldiers would rush over, and the information might even be leaked, alarming the forces outside the heavenly court.
Chen Xiaobei’s plan would be ruined!
“Your Majesty, please wait!”
However, just as Chen Xiaobei was worried the most, a middle-aged man in an immortal official’s uniform suddenly appeared at the entrance of the hall.
“What?”
The Jade Emperor glanced at him coldly, a hint of displeasure in his eyes.”Who are you?”
Obviously, the rank of an immortal official was much lower than that of a God official, so the Jade Emperor did not know this person at all.
“This lowly one is the Imperial kitchen’s Chief Steward. I heard that Your Majesty has good news and would like to ask for a cup of wine!”
The middle-aged man said respectfully.
“Nonsense!”
The God of Cookery in the hall looked over and shouted angrily, ” “You’re a mere seventh-rank immortal official, what right do you have to speak here? If you don’t want to die, hurry up and go back!”
Although the culinary God was shouting angrily, his eyes were filled with deep worry.
It should be known that everything related to food in the heavenly court was in charge of by the God of food.
And this Imperial Kitchen manager was a little immortal official under the God of Cookery.
If he came to ask for wine, he would most likely anger the Jade Emperor and end up in a miserable state.
Therefore, the God of food shouted angrily first to protect him and let him escape quickly to avoid punishment.
From this, it could be seen that the God of Cookery was still very kind.
But!
The Imperial Kitchen manager didn’t appreciate it and insisted, ” “Normally, I wouldn’t dare to act recklessly! However, today was his Majesty’s big day! I believe His Majesty will show extra mercy!”
“You … You’re simply reckless!” The God of food was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
“Forget it!”
“Come to the palace, I’ll give you a cup of Imperial Wine!” The Jade Emperor said indifferently.
Just a moment ago, the Jade Emperor had announced that he had gained some enlightenment and that his Dao heart had become more complete and smooth!
This was a great thing!
If he were to get angry now, wouldn’t he be slapping himself in the face?
“Many thanks, Your Majesty!”
The Imperial kitchen’s steward hurriedly ran in and said insatiably,”Your Majesty! I want to get a drink for all the fairies here! They’ve also worked very hard these past few days. Your Majesty, please treat this as a reward for them!”
“What?”
The Jade Emperor’s brows furrowed slightly, clearly very displeased.
This was like asking a noble to drink with a slave. According to the Jade Emperor’s previous personality, not only would he not agree, but he would also severely punish the immortal official.
But at this moment, good news was coming, and the immortal official’s words were reasonable.
No matter how unhappy the Jade Emperor was, he couldn’t refuse. Otherwise, it would only show that he was a petty man.
“I’ll allow it!”
The Jade Emperor composed himself and said,”all the palace maids present, please give me a cup of wine!”
“F * ck!”
Chen Xiaobei, who was hiding in the dark, was surprised and overjoyed.
They were shocked because they wondered who the immortal official was. Why did he suddenly jump out and ask for a drink?
The good news was that the immortal official had really helped the heavens a great deal!
