Xu Chun couldn't help but frown secretly as he listened to Qin Shaoyou's confession.
As a eunuch serving Emperor Jianwu, in addition to being able to observe words and expressions, he also had to be able to write expressions and poems.
As a eunuch with ideas and pursuits, Xu Chun is naturally good at this.
At this moment, in his opinion, Qin Shaoyou's essay had many problems in terms of format, content, etc.
It can be said to be quite amateurish.
Can such an expression also reach heaven and consecrate gods?
Just when Xu Chun was full of doubts, Qin Shaoyou had already finished reciting the inscription, lit it on the candle, and put it into the incense burner in front of the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
Biaowen was quickly burned to ashes and turned into a stream of green smoke, which was sucked into the belly of the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
Everyone became nervous at this moment.
At the same time, a beam of golden light suddenly penetrated the clouds in the sky, fell into the Haizhou Demon Suppression Department, and covered Ao Chou's body.
These golden lights turned into golden lotuses and golden flowers, exuding a refreshing fragrance, making Ao Chou, who stood on the golden lotus, look extraordinary and finally no longer looked like a villain.
Suddenly, everyone seemed to hear a majestic voice:
"It's what you played!"
As the words fell, Ao Chou's temperament suddenly changed.
A powerful divine power spurted out from his body.
Except for Qin Shaoyou, Gunshan Jun and a few others, the rest of them were all in awe and subconsciously knelt on the ground to worship the newly promoted Dragon King of the South China Sea.
Xu Chun and the two stall stalls he brought were not weak, and they could barely control their legs and did not kneel down to worship.
But the shock in their hearts was extremely great.
Especially Xu Chun.
He can be regarded as a person who has seen the world, and he knows that what is overflowing from Ao Chou at this moment is the purest divine power, which is very different from the demigod power that Ao Chou had before, and is also different from the mad god enshrined by Emperor Jianwu.
, with many differences.
It was precisely because of seeing this that Xu Chuncai was more shocked and unbelievable than others.
He couldn't understand why Qin Shaoyou could get a response from the gods of heaven and earth when this article that Qin Shaoyou had concocted was obviously full of errors and omissions. Why could he succeed in becoming a god?
Could it be that the Qing Ci they wrote over the years was wrong?
Is this four-faced expression that Qin Shaoyou concocted correct?
After being surprised, Xu Chun couldn't help but get excited and tried his best to recall the format and content of Qin Shaoyou's essay in his mind.
He planned to find a chance to try afterwards. He did not seek to be able to become a god like Qin Shaoyou, but as long as he could get the response from the gods of heaven and earth, his status in the eyes of Emperor Jianwu would definitely skyrocket!
By then, Xu Chun will no longer have to be Wei Bao's godson.
Maybe it could be reversed and Wei Bao would recognize him as his godfather.
It's exciting just thinking about it.
Qin Shaoyou glanced at Xu Chun, and when he saw the excitement on his face, he knew what he was planning, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"Do you really think that I can become a god because of this ritual and this confession? It's like falling in love. If we look at each other right, talking about anything is interesting. But if I don't like you, I will use
No matter how hard you try, in the eyes of the other party, you are just a clown..."
Ao Chou finally recovered from the surprise of becoming a god. He excitedly kowtowed to the statue of the Patriarch three times, then turned around and kowtowed to Qin Shaoyou again to express his gratitude.
Qin Shaoyou hurriedly helped him.
"Brother Ao, you can become a god because you have accumulated enough good deeds and merits over the years. What I do is just to help you express these merits and deeds to heaven and earth, and then grant you the status of god on behalf of heaven and earth.
...I haven’t done anything extraordinary to deserve your gratitude.”
Cui Yougui on the side couldn't help but frown secretly after hearing Qin Shaoyou's words.
Isn’t becoming a god a big deal?
Why do I feel that your words don't sound like you are being modest, but rather pretending to take credit?
Ao Chou is an upright person, not as frivolous as Cui Youwei. Hearing Qin Shaoyou's humility, he was deeply moved and said seriously:
"Master Qin, I know that my ability to become a god is all due to your granting me the title. If it weren't for you, even if I had accumulated enough merits and good karma, I would still have no way to become a god. The kindness of becoming a god is greater than the sky, and I will definitely remember it.
I will never forget it in my heart!"
What Qin Shaoyou wanted was Ao Chou's statement, but he still said a few hypocritical polite words.
Then he turned his head, pretending to have just noticed Xu Chun and others, and asked with surprise: "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Then his face darkened, Yang Zuo got angry, called Zhu Xiucai over, and cursed: "How did you do this? Didn't I say that during the period of being a god, no one can be allowed into the sea without my permission?"
Zhouzhen Yaosi!"
Zhu Xiucai cooperated very well, pretending to be aggrieved, and explained: "Sir, they are from the editing factory. They said they recruited you back to Beijing in accordance with His Majesty's order. They are imperial envoys. I can't stop them."
The acting skills of the two were very good, and Xu Chun didn't see any flaws.
Of course, it's possible that he saw it but didn't point it out.
Xu Chun took two steps forward and, being careful, raised his hands to Qin Shaoyou and said: "Qin Qianhu, don't blame Zhu Baihu, I had to come in to witness the ceremony of conferring gods. I had only heard that Qin Qianhu could confer gods.
Today I finally witnessed it with my own eyes. After returning to Beijing, I will definitely report the matter truthfully to Lord Long Live and ask for a seal for this Dragon King of the South China Sea."
Xu Chun's words were not only a gesture of goodwill to Ao Chou, but also a hint that it was Emperor Jianwu's intention that he came to watch the ceremony of conferring gods, so that Qin Shaoyou would not blame him.
After all, the Editorial Office and the Demon Suppression Department have always been at odds with each other. If Qin Shaoyou really wanted to mess with him, he would definitely be miserable.
Qin Shaoyou understood what Xu Chun meant, snorted lightly, and did not pursue the matter further.
Seeing this, Xu Chun breathed a sigh of relief.
Ao Chou bowed his hand and said thank you.
He seemed polite, but in fact he was not interested in Xu Chun's overtures.
After checking the identity documents of Xu Chun and others, Qin Shaoyou pretended to be confused.
"I would like to ask my father-in-law, Your Majesty's previous decree was for me to come to Jiangnan to supervise a case. I have only been away from the capital for a few days and have not yet started the investigation. Why are you recruiting me back to the capital?"
Xu Chun has been observing Qin Shaoyou's reaction.
Wei Bao sent him to recruit Qin Shaoyou to return to the capital, and also had a secret mission, asking him to explore Qin Shaoyou's background and see if a series of things that happened in the capital were related to Qin Shaoyou.
At this moment, in Xu Chun's opinion, Qin Shaoyou's surprise did not seem like a fake, as if he really didn't know what was going on in the capital.
So he told Qin Shaoyou about the changes in Beijing.
Of course, in his words, the changes in the capital were caused by the demons of the Black Lotus Sect causing chaos.
Those Black Lotus demons not only attacked the imperial city, but also killed the chief minister of the dynasty and many ordinary people. This shocked the court and made Emperor Jianwu, who loved his people like his own children, furious and ordered a strict investigation of the Black Lotus demons.
, they must be eradicated completely...
After listening, Qin Shaoyou and others couldn't help but sneer in their hearts: Love the people like a son? This is true, after all, all the princes of Emperor Jianwu were killed by him.
But on their faces, they all pretended to be shocked.
"Is your Majesty okay? It's okay, it's okay. The demons of the Black Lotus Sect are so audacious that they dared to attack the imperial city and murder the chief minister of the dynasty! I only regret that we were not in the capital at that time, otherwise we would have risked our lives
, we must also stop these monsters!"
Qin Shaoyou was filled with indignation and gritted his teeth, looking loyal.
Then he asked: "Your Majesty called me back to Beijing, but you want me to investigate and eradicate the Black Lotus Sect?"
"I don't know about this." Xu Chun didn't see any flaws in Qin Shaoyou's body and could only shake his head. "What do you think of Master Long Live? How dare we, the slaves, ask."
"My father-in-law is humble. You can tell at a glance that your father-in-law must be your majesty's most useful confidant. Since the emperor's order has come, we must not neglect it. Scholars and monks, please pack your bags immediately and prepare to return to Beijing. Father-in-law, you have worked hard on your journey.
Please take a break and have some hot food. As soon as we pack our bags, we will set off back to Beijing immediately."
