Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1035 - 255: Chen Jie: Brother Ni, We Meet Again

This fair-faced man nad Xu Shouhui was brought back by his master Monk Peng to beco the Emperor.

Zhao Pusheng found it amusing as his master aspired to be Emperor; he risked his life supporting him. But how could this fair-faced man warrant being Emperor?

Moreover, it was said that before his master found the Enlightennt Pills for him, this man was an idiot. He couldn’t bear an idiot as his Emperor.

But the master’s orders were hard to defy. Master said this man, with the Ziwei Star shining, was a destined choice by the Heavenly Mandate to be Emperor, so he had no choice.

He could only show reluctance without daring to say anything.

While the group was waiting, they saw soone arriving at this rundown temple.

"Haha, everyone is here."

Ni Wenjun looked at the crowd and said. Upon hearing this, Zhao Pusheng glanced at him and said, "Commander Ni, we’ve been waiting for you for quite a while!"

Though this group had not yet rebelled, based on Monk Peng’s whimsy, official positions were already assigned. Xu Shouhui was the Emperor; he was the State Preceptor; the left and right marshals were sealed.

Left Marshal Ni Wenjun, Right Marshal Zhao Pusheng.

Others skilled at martial power were given the title of General, and those proficient in clerical duties were titled Pri Minister. For instance, Zou Pusheng was the Pri Minister, overseeing the logistics of the entire Maitreya Sect.

One could say that Monk Peng, who practiced the Self-Comfortable Buddha, acted on whims—his strength was great, but his political capabilities were average.

Ni Wenjun ca back, and Monk Peng said: "Alright, let’s discuss the matter in Hubei. Has Jiu Si agreed to the uprising?"

Upon Monk Peng’s inquiry, Ni Wenjun said: "State Preceptor, I feel our policy has issues. Jiu Si told ..."

Ni Wenjun explained what Chen Jiusi said to him.

The crowd was bewildered.

Stockpile grains, build high walls, delay the claim of kingship?

The crowd was puzzled; what kind of tactic was this? Zou Pusheng slightly frowned, savoring the nine words and feeling endless wonder.

Zhao Pusheng, however, scoffed: "Hmph, what nine-word strategy? I think it’s just your brother afraid, using it as an excuse not to rebel!"

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun furrowed his brow, daring Zhao to speak against his brother?

Zhao Pusheng looked at Ni Wenjun and said: "How am I wrong? With a great battle in the Central Plains, such a grand opportunity, if we don’t seize it, muster troops, what are you doing hiding here, waiting until the grain is stocked and the walls built high? By then, the world will be divided up!"

"And we’ll still be playing Emperor, Marshal, Pri Minister like children?"

Zhao Pusheng spoke with disdain.

Peng Yingyu slightly frowned, for a mont unsure about whether Ni Wenjun or Zhao Pusheng was right.

But his mouth chewed on the nine words given by Chen Jiusi: Stockpile grains, build high walls, delay the claim of kingship?

This isn’t what he had in mind.

It’s undeniable that everyone has their weaknesses, and Peng Yingyu’s political ability was indeed lacking; no wonder he thought of finding soone to be Emperor.

At this mont, he gazed at the fair-faced Xu Shouhui and asked: "What does Your Majesty think?"

Xu Shouhui looked around, his thoughts being, Stockpile grains, build high walls, delay the claim of kingship, what’s he doing sitting here wanting to be Emperor?

Now not allowed to claim kingship?

What should he do? Without claiming kingship, how can he be Emperor? Would he just be playing Emperor with this handful of people?

No, only by uprising, with many people, and larger territory can he make his Emperor position valuable.

Hence, he held little regard for Chen Jie’s idea and had a poor first impression of Chen Jiusi.

Then Xu Shouhui said: "State Preceptor, I agree with Commander Zhao’s views. The major trends of the world are fleeting opportunities; we shouldn’t waver, or how can we achieve major success!"

Upon hearing this, Peng Yingyu said: "Your Majesty speaks rightly."

"State Preceptor, you know well Brother Jiu Si’s talents; he wouldn’t shoot arrows without a target!"

Ni Wenjun said anxiously.

"Hmm, what Brother Ni says is very true."

"Master, I agree with Your Majesty’s words. We have been busy in Hubei for a year, we can’t achieve nothing. Moreover, the Zoroastrian Sect’s Central Plains battle, though we are not Zoroastrian, Maitreya Sect being the sa root source, we can start a rebellion to distract the court’s forces; this is a noble cause!"

Zhao Pusheng said at this ti to Peng Yingyu.

Peng Yingyu, upon hearing the words, fell into contemplation, for a mont unsure how to proceed.

At this ti, Zou Pusheng spoke from the side: "Master, if you can’t make up your mind, why not take a two-step approach? Our main force, to rebel, should rebel. This Chen Jiusi can serve as a surprise force, keep him inactive; he might have great use in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Peng Yingyu said: "Hmm, alright then, let’s follow Fifth Brother’s advice."

Zou Pusheng clasped his fists and said: "Thank you, Master."

Peng Yingyu said: "Hmm, follow Fifth Brother’s words. You gentlen, return to your respective cults. When the Central Plains battle begins, we will rebel."

"As for Chen Jiusi, keep him inactive as a surprise force."

"Yes!"

The crowd replied in unison upon hearing the words.

Xu Shouhui frowned slightly, but soon relaxed his brow and smiled: "State Preceptor is wise!"

...

Chen Jie knew nothing of how the Maitreya Sect’s mbers planned for the uprising, but the next morning, very early.

Chen Jie was forcibly awakened by soone from the Darugachi Mansion.

Chen Jie was bewildered early in the morning, what was going on?

Xiao Hu ca to report at this ti, saying: "The Darugachi Mansion urgently summons him to the mansion."

Chen Jie was puzzled and said: "I just took a rest, why the urgency?"

Xiao Hu said: "It seems that early this morning, the court’s ssenger arrived, rushing an 800-li urgent letter instructing Wang Baobao to imdiately head north and participate in the Central Plains battle!"

"Hmm!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie instantly sat upright, a fortuitous event indeed!
