In the    hall, everyone entered the arena early and lined up on both sides according to the male and female guests and their respective identities under the guidance of the demon soldiers.

   "Your Majesty is here—!"

  As the little demon shouted loudly, all the demons knelt down one after another.

   "Long live my king! Long live!"

   Those who were not from Huaguoshan were stunned.

  Ling Yunzi looked left and right and bowed his hands.

  Ao listened to Xinfu and saluted, but Ao Cun frowned and had no choice but to accompany him.

   Real Man Yuding glanced at him and stood still.

   Even the wind chimes are a little uncomfortable.

   Although she has a closer relationship with the monkey than everyone present, she has never knelt down on the monkey before.

   Accompanied by Yang Chan, he walked out of the side door of the main hall. The monkey was also startled. He frowned and glanced at Yang Chan lightly, but didn't say anything.

When    stood on the edge of the throne, the monkey looked at the crowd under the steps, and suddenly felt a sense of superiority, and it seemed that there was an additional gap with the crowd.

   When we were at Nantianmen, everyone did this kind of ceremony, but it was on the battlefield and in front of the army. "Family banquet" is done like this, is it really good?

   "Let everyone be seated." Yang Chan on the side coughed dryly and reminded in a low voice.

   "Let's all take your seats." Monkey said quickly and lightly.

   Said, he also sat down on the throne. Wearing a long white dress, Yang Chan, who was so beautiful, sat beside him.

  As everyone took their seats, the banquet began. Lu Liuguai, the prime minister of Huaguo Mountain, gave an opening speech, and then, all the generals also toasted and gave a toast.

   In the process of toasting and celebrating, Yang Chan has been whispering in the monkey's ear about all the people present.

"Liuguai was the earliest 'sir' in Huaguoshan, and now he is half of his disciples, and he is also the banner of civil servants. However, he is a bit serious about the civil and military. The last time I was talking about building a new barracks. There have been conflicts. In the end, although the mediation was successful, it was inevitable that there would be some grudges. Fortunately, he was not very selfish. There was no problem. However, I have been in frequent contact with him, and I am afraid that it will arouse the dissatisfaction of the sergeant. "

"Shortmouth leans towards the mean, and the army has been under his control over the years, but he has made little achievements in tactical innovation. About twelve years ago, he fought more and less in Nanzhanbuzhou and suffered a defeat by the Tianhe Navy, which was criticized. . The young soldiers in the army are mostly dissatisfied with him."

"The Nine-Headed Worm is still the number one warrior in our army, with outstanding military exploits. It has a very high prestige in the army, especially among the grassroots soldiers. It's a pity that he acts recklessly and has a weird style, which often angers the demon generals and even the heads of various ministries. Pressing more than a dozen papers to impeach him. Don't get too close to him, otherwise it will easily provoke other people's displeasure."

   "Big Horn is really lackluster, but he is a veteran, and Lingxi is your righteous daughter. In addition, he has a conservative personality and does not like to stand out, but he is highly respected and does not make many enemies. You don't need to worry about moving around with him."

"Yi Su...Yi Su is fine. He has been by my side all these years as my right and left hand. Although he is an enlightened practitioner, he doesn't seem to have any talent, especially his mind is not very calm. Fifty years ago, I put She arranged to go to the army and served as a commander. It has been 50 years since she had not done much in battle, but her actions were still quite appreciated. She didn't lose face to me. Of course.

"The black gangster is still so angry. I call a bunch of subordinates all day long, and they are very protective. Last time my subordinates provoked people under the Peng Demon King, it was obviously his own fault and he wanted to protect them, which led to the joint impeachment of the five demon kings. Later, I came out and scolded his subordinates before I could barely suppress it. It's best not to talk to you, Heizi, I've had enough of his subordinates."

"Lingxi is very low-key. She cultivates the Tao of Enlightenment, and she is also quite talented. She doesn't like swords and soldiers, and she doesn't like conflict with others. It doesn't matter if it's my successor. At the beginning, the five demon kings and I had some conflicts and then turned to support her, and then the five guys gave in, and they gradually became estranged."

   "The Dragon King of All Saints has a high prestige in the entire Huaguo Mountain, and he is also very dedicated. He is thoughtful in everything he thinks and does, and can take into account the relationship between all parties. But he is still too close to the Bull Demon King..."

"Princess Halloween is nothing, she is originally from the dragon family, and the Jade Emperor began to deduct the rainwater from Huaguo Mountain decades ago, so I simply let her be responsible for the agricultural affairs. She did a good job and was loved by a lot. This family is quite influential in Huaguo Mountain. If you find a day, you can entertain them alone, and also declare your kindness to the subjects. But it is best to mainly entertain the Halloween Dragon King, and by the way, invite the Hydra couple. Otherwise, the problem on the Hydra side..."

  …

  Monkey frowned even more.

   "Need this?" he asked in a low voice.

"As I said before, Huaguoshan is no trivial matter. The entire Huaguoshan is watching your every move. Don't say it's you, I've always been like this before. If you invite more people and talk more, it will be derived. Numerous interpretations. Huaguo Mountain is no longer the original Huaguo Mountain…”

  The monkey was silent.

  In the sound of drums, the banshee who was walking gracefully went to the temple and presented songs and dances.

   In the festive mood, the monkeys held up their cups and said some words of exhortation or encouragement one by one. Even the content of these words, what to say and what not to say, Yang Chan had already ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare carefully.

   Is this the emperor?

  Monkey suddenly felt that his throne was hotter than the Jade Emperor's dragon chair.

   Originally thought that this family banquet they would all get drunk like the countless previous banquets, but it didn't.

  After three rounds of wine, just when the monkey thought that the climax of the banquet was coming, Yang Chan announced his exit, because there was a celebration in the evening, and most of the people present had to participate.

   On the way back to the residence, the little demons who were serving followed closely, but the monkey had a feeling of being lost.

  The aisle is full of all kinds of flowers and plants, a breeze blows, and pieces of peach blossoms fall, like a rain of flowers.

   sent everyone back, and he and Yang Chan strolled on the footpath in the courtyard.

  The clouds are flying in the sky, and the floating barracks and military ports are suspended quietly like lotus leaves floating in a pond. From time to time, you can see warships leaving and entering the port.

  In the distance, the monsters are decorating their lights and preparing for tonight's celebration.

"Tonight's celebration is mainly to welcome you back, and at the same time to reward you for this battle. It's different from a family banquet. There will be many people you don't know. I'll introduce you one by one... To these newcomers, we should use Encouragement is the main thing. Beating is the supplement, and remember not to get too close to the old ministers during the celebration. Although you are back, you will definitely be able to calm them down, but I am afraid that the end will be difficult to adjust, in case they have complaints in their hearts and go to work. If you don’t work hard, you won’t be able to do it.”

"Half the reason for Tianting's big defeat this time is because of party disputes. If they feel that you treat them very differently from those old people, then the newcomers will soon form a group to fight against the old people... After all, everyone wants to have a bright future, even if they are not strong enough. Forget it, if there are other reasons, who can be happy?"

   "So the most important task tonight is to make the newcomers feel that the Monkey King doesn't treat them differently. The old people are invited to a banquet at noon. It's just a reminiscence."

"And there is the title. Next, your title should be changed. You can't continue to be called the Monkey King. The Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King... They are also 'kings'. If you are only the Monkey King, then you are a little different from him. The meaning of it. The king of demon kings, must have a louder name. The problem with the title should not be underestimated, it represents the title... But this can be discussed in the long run."

  Yang Chan recounted the details of various power techniques over and over again. Including various situations inside Huaguo Mountain.

  The monkey was silent, his scalp tingling as he heard it.

   He suddenly realized that the entire Huaguo Mountain was no longer known, and everything was not as beautiful as it seemed on the surface.

   After a short rest, two hours later, with the sound of drum music, another banquet began.

  Different from the family banquet, this banquet was held directly in the main hall of the Qitian Temple—Wan Yao Hall.

   Sits on a high throne. through the open door of the temple. The monkey can see the clouds in the sky at a glance, as if the heaven and the earth are under his feet. There is a magnificent feeling of looking down at all beings.

  The eight black pillars that stand in the hall, which is as spacious as a school ground, are full of elaborately carved monster war totems, solemn and solemn.

Under the    giant pillar, there are densely arranged low tables, and the civil and military demons worship the monkeys three times and nine times below, and sit down one by one.

  The civil servants read out the awards for the military exploits in the hall, which also included the rewards given to the civil servants in the name of monkeys, to thank them for their dedication and dedication to their posts for a hundred years.

  As they came forward to toast and thank them individually, Yang Chan introduced them one by one, and the monkey said a few paragraphs that he knew by heart again and again.

   His smile gradually stiffened.

   "Can you not do this? I'm so tired." The monkey asked in a low voice.

   "No, you are the emperor." Yang Chan replied firmly.

The    monkey was silent again.

   Ended all the awards, and the banquet started on time.

   During the banquet, a maid accidentally spilled wine on the body of a high-ranking official, and hurriedly knelt down in shock.

   Those ministers who were laughing and laughing became silent for a while.

   Soon, two court officers stepped forward, set up their maidservants who were still begging for mercy, and left.

  Monkey looked at the struggling figure, not knowing what kind of punishment she would receive, but looking at her expression, it was estimated that it was not light.

The atmosphere of the    banquet became warm again, as if nothing had ever happened.

  The monkey, who had nothing to say anymore, turned his face to look at Yang Chan, only to see that she still had a faint smile on her face. That smile seems to be tailor-made, and there is no flaw, no joy or anger.

   After a long time, the monkey sighed lightly, without saying hello to Yang Chan, got up and left through the side door.

   After a while, seeing that the Monkey King had not returned to his throne, the courtiers began to whisper. Yang Chan hurriedly sent someone to look for it.

   After a while, a little demon crept up to Yang Chan's ear and whispered, "Report to Our Lady, Your Majesty is in the attic."

   "In the attic? Let him hurry back. The banquet is still open, why did he leave?" Yang Chan said angrily.

   "Little has already said it, but... The king said he wanted to stay quiet for a while."

   Yang Chan frowned: "Take me there."

   "No."

   Under the leadership of the little demon, Yang Chan also hurriedly left the seat from the side door. The hall seemed to explode like a flower, and there was a lot of discussion.

   Amidst the commotion, the wind chimes sat blankly in their place, blinking and watching.

  …

   Holding the skirt, Yang Chan walked up to the attic step by step, and saw the monkey leaning on the railing alone and looking at the night view of Huaguo Mountain.

   From a distance, Yang Chan took a deep breath to ease her eagerness, walked over and said with a soft smile, "What's the matter?"

   "It's very beautiful. It's really beautiful." Chewing on the peaches, the monkey pointed at the brightly lit Huaguo Mountain and said, "It's much more beautiful than what I saw in Heaven."

   was silent for a while. The monkey continued, "But I'm thinking, is this what I want?"

"what do you want?"

The monkey swallowed the peach that was in his mouth, frowned and said blankly: "A long, long time ago, Huaguo Mountain was still in ruins, and the troops could not even get their armor together. Many soldiers even Going into battle shirtless, we relied on that patchwork of troops to withstand the Heavenly Army and win a chance to survive. Although many, many people died, we finally survived."

"Why?" He pursed his lips and smiled, and continued: "Because there are too many rules in heaven. Infighting, so we have a chance. At that time, I was thinking, my Huaguoshan should not change in the end. It has become like that. But today, it has become like that."

  Yang Chan was stunned for a moment.

   "You... are you blaming me for not doing well?"

"What did you say?" The monkey took a deep breath, blinked his eyes, and tossed the unfinished peaches in his hand, twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled and said, "You did such a good job. How can I be surprised? ?Right?"

   "You're blaming me." Yang Chan stared.

The monkey licked his lips, lowered his head and thought for a while, scratched his head, and said softly: "I just... I'm just not used to it. Before a banquet was held, everyone hugged each other and laughed. The Horned Snake said a few words. If it is unpleasant to be poured on the face by the maid, we will make fun of him before we are willing, and we will never blame the maid. I don't understand, how... how did it become like this. "

   frowned. The monkey watched Yang Chan quietly.

  Yang Chan also watched him quietly.

  Under the moonlight. In the cool breeze, the two were relatively speechless.

   half sound. The monkey bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry, just pretend that I didn't say it. It's not good to leave for too long, so let's hurry back to the table."

   After saying that, he walked away and passed by Yang Chan.

   "Stop!"

  Monkey stopped quickly and turned his back to Yang Chan.

   "Do you think I did this on purpose?" Yang Chan asked in a daze.

  Monkey did not answer.

   Taking a deep breath, Yang Chan leaned on the fence and whispered, "I... I'm a human, this is Huaguo Mountain. How many of them do you think are really convinced of me?"

  Monkey bowed his head slightly.

With pursed lips, Yang Chan said softly, "You are the demon king, you can control the scene with one word, what about me? I'm just a human being who doesn't fit in with them. I don't rely on rules or power. How can I control them? Can they do it on their own? Do you know what virtue these monsters are?"

  Monkey still didn't speak, just raised his head slightly.

The    spit out mist slowly drifted in the air.

   Yang Chanhu's hand on his chest tightened slightly. She said dumbly: "When you were not around, I often had nightmares. I dreamed that you came back and saw Huaguo Mountain was scorched, crying..."

   "Dream that the Jade Emperor took you down and no one came to save you..."

   "I just want to think that when you come back, no matter what, I will let you see a mighty Mountain of Flowers and Fruits..."

   "In case something happens to you in Heavenly Court, I still have chips to bargain with the Jade Emperor... I can find a way to rescue you."

   A breeze blew past, raising the monkey's cape and bypassing Yang Chan's long skirt.

  Yang Chan blinked her bright eyes, and her eyes gradually became more crystal clear, and her tone gradually became a little choked up.

She lowered her head and said, "I'm in charge of logistics at Guanjiangkou, but I've never been a leader. I don't really understand, I don't understand anything... I'm so afraid that I'll screw up everything. If something happens in the underworld, I dare not tell You, I am afraid that you will directly oppose it. I dare not tell them, because I am afraid that they will have worries. Huaguoshan will disband at that time..."

  Monkey turned back slowly.

   "The five demon kings are strong, short-mouthed and weak, and the six crooks are pedantic. I am worried that the newcomers will usurp power, and I have to use them..."

   "I'm afraid that one day they will forget that you are still in the sky, and you are still in the enemy's line. I can only keep trying to improve your status."

   "Every day when I open my eyes, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me. I am a human, and they are all monsters. They plot against me together. They don't need any tricks or the most stringent laws. Tell me, what should I do?"

   "I'm just an enlightened Taoist cultivator in the spiritual realm. There are many people who could take my life in the hall just now, do you understand?"

   For a while, the monkey was speechless and could only stand there blankly.

  Yang Chan covered her chest and lowered her head. In the moonlight, her long hair covered her face, and her tears fell drop by drop.

   These are tears that have been held back for a hundred years.

The   monkey could only stare blankly.

   The woman in front of her held up the entire Huaguo Mountain with the strength of one person and created a miracle, just to wait for his return.

"They're all guessing that you might not come back. I'm also worried that you won't come back... Before the war, I ordered the preparations for the celebration. They thought I was full of confidence... Actually I was just afraid that I wouldn't have the chance to give this order... I really I'm so afraid... I'm afraid you'll be like my mother... and never come back."

   Tears have burst.

   Under the moonlight, that body trembled slightly, reaching out to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, but the monkey grabbed his wrist.

  Yang Chan raised his head and stared blankly at the monkey.

"I'm sorry." The monkey stared at her face quietly, smiled faintly, reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said softly, "Now that I'm back, leave the future to me. I bear it."

  Yang Chan blinked her eyes, stood blankly, and stood silently.

   A crisp sound came from a distance, and the exploding fireworks illuminated the entire sky and the figures of the two of them.

   Soon, the entire sky was filled with colorful fireworks. The demons in the ground city cheered.

   "Is this a celebration firework?"

   "Yes." Yang Chan nodded silently, staring blankly at the fireworks: "I picked my favorite type, thinking if I could watch it with you one day..."

   In the dazzling firelight, the monkey saw the fleeting smile at the corner of Yang Chan's mouth.

   After a long time, Yang Chan sighed in a low voice, "We should go back."

   After saying that, he was about to turn around, but was dragged back by the monkey.

   "If you like it, just watch it for a while." He said lightly.

   "If you leave the table for too long, someone will have an opinion. Maybe then..."

  Monkey stared at Yang Chan and said solemnly: "Didn't you say that you will leave everything to me in the future? What's wrong with the Monkey King watching the fireworks show? Who has an opinion, let me go to Nantianmen tomorrow and rush to the front."

   Hearing this sentence, Yang Chan burst into laughter and said, "No seriousness, what if they really rebel?"

"If it's the other way around, we'll see who has the biggest fist." Pulling Yang Chan's hand back to the fence, the monkey raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "Come on, watch the fireworks. Damn, it's to celebrate my return, so we don't even know it. How about Shu Xin? Don't worry about anything tonight, what do they like."

   Yang Chan smiled, but tears fell like rain.

   "Why are you crying again?"

   "I'm just… just having fun."

  Monkey was in a hurry for a while.

   A breeze blows.

   Raise the cape and wrap the long skirt. (To be continued~^~)
