Chapter 82: The Immortals Are Merciless In the Immortal Court, there is an extremely special is called: Taixuan Three Provinces. Most of them were conferred titles by ministers of the country and Taoist priests. They are the eyes and ears of the Jade Emperor, responsible for assisting the Emperor in handling the affairs of the celestial court, making decisions on small matters and reporting major issues to the emperor, similar to the cabinet of a dynasty. It can be said that he is in a low position but has great power! Therefore, when he saw Gu Yunli, Taixuan was trying a case, his heart skipped a beat. This is almost equivalent to the Jade Emperor personally trying the case. It's just an additional buffer mechanism. So what case is worthy of Taixuan Sanxing, representing the Jade Emperor, to personally intervene? While Gu Yunli was full of doubts, the immortal official who was guiding him had already entered the palace, set up auspicious clouds, and led him straight up into the immortal court. "May I ask, Fellow Daoist He, what is the case that Taixuan is trying?" Gu Yunli asked curiously on the way. "Gu Zhenzai, He is just an errand boy. He doesn't even know how high the threshold of Tianshu Court is. How can he know what case was tried?"
The immortal official who guided them had a look of trepidation on his face. Gu Yunli had no choice but to put all his energy into dealing with the situation. Entering the Immortal Palace again, this time the Immortal Official who was leading him did not take the lower path. Instead, he held the imperial edict high and rushed all the way to Tianshu Courtyard. After entering Tianshu Courtyard, the immortal official who was guiding them stopped, and the usher in charge of ceremonies led Gu Yunli deeper into the courtyard. Passing through the columns and jade unicorns, a towering hall comes into view. "The True Lord of the Network Domain, Gu Yunli, has arrived—" When the usher called out his name, Gu Yunli looked at the palace gate in the distance that looked like a giant mouth of gluttony, took a deep breath, and stepped in. The petals are arched and rolled up, and the palace is like a cold abyss. As you step into it, you will see golden dragons embracing the pillars, with their fangs bared and claws glaring at you. There were six figures sitting at the end of the hall, three of them in official uniforms were the Three Officials Emperors, and the remaining three were probably Prime Minister Taixuan. Below the six people, there were dozens of immortal officials standing, all looking at Gu Yunli in unison. Seeing it is like carrying a mountain weighing a thousand pounds, it is suffocating. Gu Yunli approached with a gloomy face and immediately saw Zhao Jinyuan, a fifth-rank immortal official standing in the center of the hall. His eyes were filled with hatred, as if filled with murderous intent! What did this make him suddenly understand? "Your humble servant Gu Yunli pays respect to the Three Officials Emperor and Prime Minister Taixuan!" Gu Yunli walked closer, first bowed to the Three Officials, then to Taixuan, and then looked at Emperor Qingxu. The emperor nodded slightly with a smile on his face, which made Gu Yunli feel relieved. "Are you Gu Yunli, the Lord of the Internet?" Yan Duo, the Prime Minister of Tianshu, who was sitting high up in the leader's seat, had a warm expression and asked with a smile. "Exactly."
"The Internet bank was created by you?" "Exactly!" "So the people on earth who exchanged their internet points for money and food were also paid by you?" "Exactly." Three correct answers in a row made the hall quiet down for a moment. Zhao Jinyuan, who had a face full of resentment, showed a slight smile and said quickly: "Prime Minister Tianshu, Gu Zhenzai has already admitted it himself. If we talk about the crime of privately releasing money and grain and interfering in human affairs, Gu Zhenzai is the main culprit!" Gu Yunli remained silent after hearing this. ——Are you sure in your mind what case Taixuan is trying? As Zhao Jinyuan finished speaking, Prime Minister Tianshu's smile suddenly faded, and he sternly rebuked: "Gu Zhenzai, you use the Internet to pray for divine power to interfere with the human world and privately release money and grain. One penny a day, one thousand pennies a thousand days, a rope sawing through wood, water dripping through stone, this is a serious crime! Do you know your crime?" When he finished speaking, everyone was shocked; when he started speaking, everyone was shocked. Upon hearing this, Zhao Jinyuan couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face. The immortal officials around also had complicated expressions on their faces. Emperor Qingxu wanted to suppress Zhao Jinyuan by accusing him of "abuse of power", but he did not expect that the expanded charges would affect himself. If we want to protect Gu Yunli now, we have to protect Zhao Jinyuan as well. It's like drawing water with a bamboo basket! "Wei Chen is guilty!" While the immortal officials were lost in their thoughts, Gu Yunli suddenly spoke and confessed his guilt. The sound of admitting guilt made Zhao Jinyuan overjoyed. He subconsciously wanted to bow and ask for permission to arrest Gu Yunli, but a flash of light made his whole body suddenly stiffen. Since Gu Yunli pleaded guilty, doesn't that mean he has to plead guilty too? "Reporting to the Prime Minister Tianshu, I think that although Gu Zhenzai released grain to the human world, it is not a serious crime. There are many sufferings in the human world. Whenever there is a disaster, the major palaces and temples strictly follow the decrees of the immortal court and provide porridge to relieve the disaster. If releasing grain is a serious crime, wouldn't all the immortal officials in the heavens be guilty?" The God of Earth stood up and defended Gu Yunli. "What Diqi Xingjun said makes sense. If the wood is broken and the stone is pierced, Gu Zhenzai can be considered guilty of a serious crime. However, although Gu Zhenzai has made some mistakes, it is definitely not a serious crime. Please let Tianshu Shangxiang take a closer look!" The Great Emperor Nanyue stood out from the crowd, neither humble nor arrogant. "Your Excellency, Prime Minister Tianshu, the land supports all things, grows grains, and nurtures the people. This is the authority and responsibility of the land. I think there is nothing wrong with what Gu Zhenzai did." Another immortal official stood up. For a moment, everyone in the hall was looking at each other and talking to each other, which made Zhao Jinyuan dumbfounded. In order to protect himself, he did not hesitate to drag Gu Zhenzai into the water. But how could these immortal officials who burned incense and distributed food watch over Yun Li as he went into the water? Otherwise, we will all be guilty! "Since Gu Yunli is innocent, then what caused the disaster in the world?" Prime Minister Tianshu had a meaningful look on his face.
The immortal officials in the hall looked at each other subconsciously, not knowing how to answer. It is bad luck to confess guilt; It is indeed unacceptable that we do not admit our guilt and that disasters are happening all over the world. When everything was in dead silence, Emperor Qingxu spoke: "Prime Minister Tianshu, I have something to say, but I don't know if I should say it or not." "Please let Emperor Qingxu speak clearly!" "As the saying goes, the light is the beginning of the heavy, and the small is the source of the big. Therefore, a small hole in the dam can cause a collapse, and a small leak can cause a big disaster. Gu Zhenzai seemed to have done nothing wrong, but he also caused a big disaster." As soon as Emperor Qingxu finished speaking, Emperor Dongyin of the Water Official interrupted and said: "The Great Emperor Qingxu has a point. A pile of feathers can sink a boat, and a group of light things can break an axle. Gu Zhenzai's actions may be good, but they have attracted many immortals to follow suit, just like the feathers that sank the boat, which eventually led to disaster." Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Tianshu nodded and said, "You two emperors, you hit the nail on the head! How should we convict this case?" Emperor Qingxu said: "Since you are guilty, you should be punished. Otherwise, how can you convince the public?" "That makes sense!" Tianshu Shangxiang nodded, and then his expression straightened up: "Since all the troubles are caused by online banks, from now on, online banks will be taken back by the Immortal Court and strictly regulated. What do you think?" Hey! Gu Yunli cursed inwardly when he heard this. After going around in circles, they are eyeing my assets again. Compared with the Internet, online banking is essentially hosted by major branches and the data is relatively transparent. If this were to be taken back into the Immortal Court, Gu Yunli would really be helpless. Can only act as a humanoid server. "It should be so!" Emperor Qingxu nodded. "Mr. Tianshu, the judgment is very fair." The Heavenly Official and the Water Official also nodded in unison. "Great!" Prime Minister Tianshu nodded with satisfaction and read aloud: "The True Lord of the Internet Realm, Gu Yunli, had good intentions at first, but turned out to be a disaster. Although he did not commit a serious offense, he is still to blame. From now on, Internet Bank will be taken back by the Immortal Court!" It’s so casual! Is this confiscated? Gu Yunli sighed in his heart and thought that he had to find a way to promote electronic payment as soon as possible. By then, online banking will naturally be useless and become a mere cashier's shop. However, before that, online banking cannot be lost, and at least some control must be maintained. There is something that still needs the help of online banking. After thinking about it, Gu Yunli stepped out from the crowd and bowed, saying: "I have something to say!"
