Chapter 9 The Emperor [Part 1]
Chapter 9 The Human Emperor [Part 1]
Zhang Jiao always had a smile on his face, and did not show any dissatisfaction with Zhu Jiukang's cold words. He poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and then said, "Master Zhu, today is different from the past, why should you be stubborn?"
Zhu Jiukang suddenly picked up the wine glass on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and put the wine glass on the table with a "pop", in a deep voice: "Today is indeed different from the past. Your Zhang family is in great shape, and I am really helpless, but if you want to mercy me, then you must be careful to break your teeth!"
"Haha..." Zhang Jiao chuckled a few times, then said with a modest smile: "Marantor Zhu is too worried. No matter how arrogant Zhang is, he dare not be arrogant in front of Marshal Zhu. Don't say that Zhang Jiao is not the human emperor now, even if he becomes the human emperor, he will not dare to manipulate Marshal Zhu. Otherwise, even if the ministers do not rebel, the people in the world will definitely rebel, no?"
Marshal Zhu Jiukang had a great reputation, otherwise he would not have supported the entire dynasty when the Ming Dynasty was often shaky. Although the Ming Dynasty was in name only, as long as this "name" was still there, the people of the world recognized this "name". To this day, the people of the Middle Land have called themselves the people of the Ming Dynasty, but they have not changed their words to other people.
"Since you know, don't talk nonsense. If you have any backup plan, just use it!" Zhu Jiukang said coldly.
"Okay! Marshal Zhu is quick to speak." Zhang Jiao said as he took out a piece of paper from his arms and threw it at Zhu Jiukang. The thin paper shot at Zhu Jiukang like a flying knife, but was gently pinched by Zhu Jiukang with his right hand.
At this time, Zhang Jiao said, "This is a list of senate staff, with a total of 57 people. This list is not planned, but the patriarch of our Feixian family and several brothers. They are all immortal disciples, with strange thoughts and difficult to figure out. However, after all, the patriarch and the patriarch are related to the patriarch, so I will take care of the patriarch in advance..."
Zhang Jiao said halfway, but he pointed it out to point out the advantages, but he didn't say anything to death.
Zhu Jiukang glanced at the list, his brows gradually frowned, looked up at Zhang Jiao, and then said lightly: "There is no name for me on the list."
"Haha, there is indeed no name for Marshal Zhu, but the list just now was a list of civil officials, and you are a military general, so of course you will not be listed together. However, after asking the senior brothers of the patriarch below, I heard that you are the leader of the military general and are still the Grand Marshal of the World." Zhang Jiao said with a smile.
"Oh?" Zhu Jiukang showed a surprised expression. At this time, he began to be interested in the patriarch of the Feixian family. Is this person a fool? Or a smart person? He actually used the Grand Marshal of the previous dynasty. This is truly unbelievable.
At this time, the Prime Minister Chang Wei, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Mr. Zhu continues to be the Grand Marshal of the Army. This is naturally done. I think there is no better position as the Grand Marshal than Master Zhu. However, Mr. Zhang, since Marshal Zhu has a position, why bother to support you as the Human Emperor? Do you have to make things difficult for yourself?"
As Chang Wei spoke, he turned into a rhetoric question, and it also had a sarcastic meaning. Everyone could understand it, but Zhang Jiao didn't care. The two sides used to be in a hostile relationship, but now it is not easy to sit together calmly, not to mention that he is asking for help, not others begging him, so Zhang Jiao naturally cannot get angry.
"Haha, as Lord Chang said, being the Human Emperor is indeed not good for you, but..." Zhang Jiao listened less, glanced at the few people present, and then said seriously: "As the saying goes, if a man does not care for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth! No matter how he serves the country and the people, he must consider himself, otherwise he will be disgraced and will be denied!"
Bang! Crash!
Zhu Jiukang suddenly slapped the table, shaking the wine and vegetable plates on the table to the point, breaking, and the vegetable juice flowed. Zhu Jiukang stood up at the same time and shouted angrily: "Zhang Jiao! How dare you threaten me!?"
Chang Wei and Lei Dong also stood up with anger on their faces. However, Old Man Gu Xing and Wu Qi did not move, poured themselves, drank wine, and ate vegetables, as if they were fine.
Zhang Jiao really stood up with a humble smile, hugged his fists, and said apologetically: "Sorry, sorry, Zhang's words are inappropriate. Please forgive me. Please sit down and listen to Zhang finish his words. Please, please."
In this case, if an ordinary person is a person, he will definitely leave. However, Zhu Jiukang, Chang Wei and Lei Dong are not ordinary people. Naturally, he cannot leave regardless of the overall situation. If that happens, their relationship with Zhang Jiao will completely collapse. Both sides will try their best to put the other party to death. Judging from the current situation, Zhang Jiao has a larger victory, while Zhu Jiukang's side is very passive.
Zhu Jiukang sighed slightly and then sat down again. Chang Wei and Lei Dong sat down again when they saw Zhu Jiukang's actions.
"If you have anything to say, hurry up and say it." Zhu Jiukang said with a little impatient.
"Haha..." Zhang Jiao chuckled and sat down again, then said, "Then Zhang won't talk too much. What Zhang said just now is that if you don't care for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. Zhang will become the Human Emperor. Of course, this is Zhang's selfishness, and everyone..."
Zhang Jiao paused for a moment, took a look at the word, and then said: "Zhang has several quotas. These quotas are not places to invite individuals, but can invite one quotas for families with foreign surnames at a time! After you get one quota, you can move your family to Xianren Island. In the Feixian City, you will naturally arrange a main house for you. In the future, you may not have one or two cultivators at home..."
"If you are willing to recommend serving as the Human Emperor, then Zhang can offer the quota in his hand with both hands. The benefits for the three families are obvious. In addition, with the talents and martial arts of the three, it is easy to win the Feixian family as long as they join the five-star arena battle. It is naturally not difficult to obtain the immortal fate. In the future, the three will become cultivators, and from then on, they will live forever, have magic power and all kinds of things in the world will pass by..."
"Hmph!" Zhu Jiukang interrupted Zhang Jiao's words and said coldly: "Passive Yunyan? Since you know it is passive Yunyan, why are you wading into this muddy water?"
Zhang Jiao immediately stood up, bowed with his fists, and said, "Zhang's words are inappropriate, please forgive me."
After Zhang Jiao finished speaking, he stood up and continued, "This person stands high and his vision will be higher. To be honest, Zhang is now considered half a cultivator. You may have received news that there is a kind of bloodline crystal of monsters on the Immortal Island. After using bloodline crystal, he will have many magical powers. Zhang has also used bloodline crystal of monsters, and it is the bloodline crystal of dragon monsters. It was originally named Bishui Lingser, but now he has been promoted to a dragon. If Zhang can become the Human Emperor and further obtain dragon energy, Zhang may not be promoted to a true dragon. Therefore, Zhang is now obsessed with the position of Human Emperor. One of his persistence on power is also a kind of practice."
When Zhang Jiao said this, he bowed again with his fists and said, "A gentleman has the beauty of becoming an adult, so please help me."
"..." No one spoke. Of course, the most important thing was that Zhu Jiukang did not speak, and the others did not dare to speak rashly. After all, their group was led by Zhu Jiukang. Of course, such an important decision was to be approved by Zhu Jiukang.
A few seconds later, Zhu Jiukang suddenly spoke, "I have indeed received a lot of news about your Immortal Island, but it is not detailed. I am also very curious about the blood crystals of monsters, but I have never had the chance to see them. Zhang Jiao, can I use it and let me see it for a long time?"
Zhu Jiukang's words were a bit abrupt. At the banquet, the main party was allowed to perform. Strictly speaking, it could even be said to be a disguised insult. However, after hearing Zhu Jiukang's words, Zhang Jiao showed a hint of joy on his face, and then smiled and said, "Since Marshal Zhu is interested, it's okay for Zhang to show his ugly appearance, but don't be scared."
"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, I haven't seen any world before, so how could I be scared easily? Mr. Zhang just uses it." Old Master Lei Dong, who had not spoken, finally spoke with a very kind tone.
"Haha, since that's the case, then Zhang... is ugly!" As soon as Zhang Jiao finished speaking, a white light flashed on his body, and then the "thorny" clothes sounded and tear apart. The next moment, Zhang Jiao's figure disappeared, replaced by a huge, ferocious dragon!!!
The old man Gu Xing, Wu Qi, Chang Wei and Lei Dong, flicked back with a "scarlet" sound, and each retreated to the corner of the wall, with a look of horror on his face. Zhu Jiukang did not retreat and was always sitting at the wine table, but the wine glass in his hand was broken by him. He was obviously very surprised. He was unstable for a moment, so he could not control his strength and shatter the wine glass in his hand.
… …………………
In the afternoon, at about two o'clock, all the guests on Xianren Island came to Zushan, and rows of tables and chairs were placed in Zushan Square, and the tables and chairs were divided into two parts. The tables and chairs on the east side were all military generals, while the tables and chairs on the west side were all civil officials.
A high platform was erected in front of the two east and west tables. At this moment, Zhang Liang climbed onto the platform, stood behind the speech table, coughed twice, moistened his throat, and then said, "Everyone, first of all, welcome you to Xianren Island. I am Zhang Liang, the city lord of Feixian City of Xianren Island, and this election of the Human Emperor will be hosted by me."
"I think everyone has read the rules of the Human Emperor system, and they should also understand the powers and rules of the Human Emperor, the Senate Hall and the House of Representatives. Here, I will not explain it."
