Chapter 559 Do You Understand?
Everyone's expression changed when they heard this.
Especially the Four Sages and Eight Horses, as well as Ji Chang, all looked shocked!
Ji Chang immediately raised his hand and pointed at Ji Fa, saying, "You! You actually want to marry the Emperor! Then you, then in the future, in the future..."
However, Ji Chang couldn't tell him how he would become the emperor in the future.
But his meaning was already very clear.
Lü Gongwang, the leader of the Four Sages, was forthright in his words, "Holy Son! The Marquis is old. A hundred years from now, when you ascend the throne, that tyrant and cruel ruler will surely perish. Then, you will inherit the mantle of China and become the patriarch of the human race, known as the Human Emperor. So, even though you are only a local lord now, you cannot become the Emperor's son-in-law. Otherwise, how will you rule China in the future? This old minister will never agree to this!"
The other three sages and the eight steeds also nodded slightly, agreeing with what Lu Gongwang said.
As for other officials, immortals, and generals, they were unable to express their opinions and could only remain silent and take no action.
Baliming stood at the bottom, looking at Jifa's back with an expressionless face, but he was full of admiration in his heart.
After all, he is able to compete with the master. This guy even hooked up with the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven. How powerful!
I just don’t know what the difference is between the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven and the daughter of a mortal?
Would it be more comfortable?
I heard the Emperor of Heaven has seven daughters... Damn, I'll have to find a chance to trick one of them...
…
Baliming thought obscenely in his heart...
As for Jifa.
After hearing Lü Gongwang's accusation, he did not get angry, but said calmly: "Master Lu's words are totally wrong."
Lu Gongwang frowned immediately.
But Ji Fa said slowly, "A man's status would be lowered if he married a wife or concubine. You all know that I have over a hundred concubines. Does that mean the parents of these concubines are superior to me? I am a man, and I have a clear conscience. How could I lower myself because of the so-called father-in-law and son-in-law status?"
Ji Fa spoke in a very upright manner, and did not hide the fact that he had more than a hundred concubines.
Everyone who listened had thoughtful expressions in their eyes.
What Jifa said is indeed correct.
"But, he is the Emperor of Heaven after all. How can he be compared with ordinary people? Your Highness, you married his daughter. If you meet him in the future, can you really be on equal terms with him?"
It was Mao Gongsui, one of the four sages. He looked doubtful, stroked his beard, pondered, and asked slowly.
Jifa suddenly burst into laughter, and everyone frowned.
Ji Fa smiled and looked at Mao Gongsui and said, "I want to ask Master Mao, think about that tyrant who married the daughter of the Duke of Dongbo as his queen. When he met the Duke of Dongbo, was he half a head shorter than him? Did the Duke of Dongbo refuse to kneel to him?"
"this……"
Mao Gongsui didn't know how to answer for a moment.
It is really a bit of a stretch for Ji Fa to compare the Emperor of Heaven with the Duke of Dongbo.
But if we really compare, in the hearts of these people, he is just a symbolic emperor, and he may not be more noble than the Duke of Dongbo.
Ji Fa continued calmly, "Why don't you all look at it this way? Since the Emperor wants to share in the merits of the human world and wants his name to be known among the people, how can he not pay a price? Therefore, giving his daughter to me can be considered a price. Similarly, he has also married my father. My father's status with him is only higher, not lower. As for me? When I ascend to the throne of the Human Emperor, how can my status be lower than that of the Emperor?"
Everyone who heard this hesitated and thought to themselves.
Even Ji Chang frowned slightly.
Only Baliming was looking at Jifa from a distance, his eyes twitching.
He felt a hint of the opponent's aura!
This is, this is an equally matched opponent!
Good fellow! He thought his lying skills were the best in the world.
But I didn't expect that in Xiqi, this young marquis's skills were even better than mine!
There's pressure! Oh my god! I feel the pressure!
As for why he could feel that Jifa was lying?
Just kidding, like attracts like.
Lao Ba has been telling lies all his life, how could he not tell whether this thing is real or fake?
That powerful hypocritical aura has made Lao Ba's hair stand on end.
"No, no, I have to be attentive, I have to be attentive... Otherwise, that old man won't be able to see through me, but this little guy might actually be able to see through me... Be attentive, be attentive..."
Baliming let out a sigh and his heart sank.
The whole person's aura was completely transformed.
Deep hatred, unwavering determination, unwavering loyalty...
As for the others, after thinking for a while, they couldn't think of how to refute Jifa.
Even those with a long-term vision still felt that this matter was inappropriate, but they did not know what was wrong.
Ji Fa, noticing that no one was speaking, smiled and said, "The Emperor of Heaven wishes to send 300,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, including three of the Four Imperial Gods of the North Pole, the Heavenly General Giant Spirit, the Four Seasons Generals, the Wind Master and Rain Master, and others, to join our army in attacking the Shang Dynasty to help us eliminate the tyrant and restore peace to the world. This is a great help. Everyone, don't you really want it? Even if you don't want it, think about it. The tyrant is cruel and has many vicious lackeys under his command. Our army has suffered repeated setbacks in attacking the Shang Dynasty. It is still uncertain whether we can achieve our goal in the future."
Everyone frowned when they heard this.
Ji Chang's eyelids drooped, and it was unclear what he was thinking. After a moment, he suddenly said, "My lords, please go back first. I and Fa'er have something to say."
When the officials heard this, they looked at each other. Duke Zhou Dan, Duke Mao Sui, Duke Lü Wang, and Duke Zhao Yue, the four sages, nodded and said, "We will take our leave."
The others also said, "We will take our leave."
After saying this, the four sages took the lead and filed out of the hall.
Baliming naturally followed him out without looking any further.
Ji Chang and Ji Fa were the only ones left in the hall.
Ji Chang slowly stood up and walked down. Ji Fa also had a calm expression as he watched Ji Chang gradually approach.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound. Ji Chang raised his finger and pointed at Ji Fa, his face full of anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "Ji Fa! Ji Fa! What you said is nice! But don't you really understand what the consequences will be if you become the emperor's son-in-law?!"
"Father."
Jifa's expression remained the same, even his face didn't change.
With his current level of cultivation, even if Ji Chang fought him for a whole day, he would not suffer any damage.
He said calmly, "You still can't see the situation clearly? Are you under illusions?"
"What did you say!?"
Ji Chang was furious for a moment, and a faint flame suddenly appeared above his head.
But it was suppressed by an illusory and uncertain light, which did not make him so angry that his soul and spirit were in chaos.
Ji Chang gritted his teeth and looked at Ji Fa and growled, "What are you talking about!?"
Ji Fa looked at Ji Chang and said, "I'm telling you, Father, face the reality! We are just puppets of those people! Since we are puppets, being puppets of two families naturally gives us more choices and opportunities than being puppets of one family! If everyone wants us to be puppets, then those people will be our puppets! Father, do you understand!?"
