Chapter 144 The Evil Uncle Really Became an Official, Inviting the Ghost Messengers to a Royal Meal

Su Chengxiao, dressed in a crimson official robe embroidered with pheasants, slowly stepped across the threshold and entered the Golden Palace.

When did he suddenly become a second-rank official?

Everyone was a little confused.

"Why are you wearing the official robes of a second-rank official? That's not in accordance with the rules."

The Duke of Zhenguo frowned and stared at him.

Su Chengxiao straightened his official robes and glanced at Su Xuance with a hint of smugness: "Oh dear, people's luck changes. You never thought that one day my official rank would be higher than yours, did you? You're only a third-rank official. From now on, you'll have to address me as Lord Su."

He reached out to pat Su Xuance on the shoulder.

A small, chubby hand slapped hard on the back of his hand.

"Don't touch my dad!" Renbao glared at him fiercely.

Su Chengxiao's hand immediately became red and swollen, burning with pain. He glared at him and said, "How dare you hit me! I'm a second-rank official now, after all!"

"Renbao is still a Junior Celestial Master, a higher rank than you!" Renbao retorted confidently. "So what if I hit you?"

Su Chengxiao gritted his teeth in anger and prepared to retaliate.

The emperor has arrived.

Everyone fell silent and stood up straight.

As soon as Renbao saw the emperor, he eagerly asked, "Uncle Emperor, why did you make him an official?"

The emperor looked somewhat uneasy.

Yesterday, he suddenly decided to leave the palace incognito for a visit, but was assassinated in a restaurant.

Su Chengxiao suddenly appeared and stood in front of him, saving him.

In a moment of impulsiveness, he appointed him as the Provincial Administration Commissioner, in charge of money, grain, taxes, and levies.

Upon hearing Renbao's question, a hint of self-doubt flashed in the emperor's eyes. What was he thinking at the time?

But once the Holy Word is spoken, it cannot be taken back.

The only option is to find an opportunity to strip him of his official position.

The emperor coughed: "My beloved ministers, please report your matters."

"Daddy, put me down." Renbao twisted his body, trying to land.

Su Xuance obeyed her, but before he could straighten up, he caught a glimpse of Renbao bouncing his chubby little legs toward the one on the dragon throne.

"Renbao..." he tried to stop him.

Renbao was already sitting on the dragon throne, his expression tense, staring intently at the emperor.

She didn't speak.

He knew what she wanted to ask.

The emperor looked at her, leaned close to her ear, and whispered coaxingly, "I was wrong. I will find a chance to remove him from his post. Please don't be angry."

Renbao crossed his arms and grunted, then reluctantly nodded: "Alright."

She knew that it was the pawnshop owner in the ghost market who had made his move.

She looked at Su Chengxiao. He was missing two souls and five spirits. He seemed glamorous, but in reality, he exuded a sense of decay. His lifespan had also been reduced by ten years.

He won't live much longer.

Let him be smug for a while.

After Renbao figured it out, he reached out to the emperor for a hug: "Kunkun, hug me."

The emperor reached out and placed her on his lap. She clutched his dragon robe and fell asleep instantly.

The officials were no longer surprised by this scene.

They've already let her sit on the dragon throne, so what's a little care to hold her while she sleeps?

"Your Majesty, isn't this against the rules, Little Celestial Master?" Su Chengxiao said with a hint of bitterness in his voice.

He thought what he said made perfect sense.

All the officials will support him.

"His Majesty's rules are the rules. Even His Majesty tolerates the Little Celestial Master's actions, so what nonsense are you spouting!"

Minister Yao was the first to jump out, pointing at Su Chengxiao and cursing.

The officials looked dazed.

The last person to bring up the rules was probably Minister Yao, right?

The sun really rose in the west today.

Renbao was awakened by a fragrant aroma.

Inside the main hall, the eunuchs were serving the meal.

Wild game brought in from outside the Great Wall included smoked roe deer meat and venison, which were slowly roasted over charcoal.

Crystal-clear mutton dumplings, eight-treasure tofu simmered in chicken broth with chicken mince, mushrooms, and other delicacies, and tender, flavorful steamed goose...

Milk stewed with honey cheese, white fungus and lotus seed rock sugar soup...

Milk skin rolls, silk-wrapped tiger eye candy, yam cake...

There are more than a dozen kinds of staple foods for breakfast alone.

The seasonal fruits are fresh and plump.

Renbao's mouth was slightly open as he watched the emperor and Su Xuance chatting without touching their chopsticks.

She couldn't contain herself any longer. She leaned closer to the table, her hands resting on the edge, staring at the soft, sweet pastries in front of her, her throat bobbing slightly.

Su Xuance had already noticed the drool that was about to spill from her mouth out of the corner of his eye.

But since the emperor didn't speak, he didn't dare to move.

"Eat up," the emperor said to Renbao with a smile.

Renbao was the first to pick up a piece of roe deer meat with her chopsticks, chewed it in small bites, and sighed with delight, shaking her little head, "It's so good to be human."

The emperor chuckled, "Isn't Renbao a human being?"

"No, I'm Little Yama," Renbao said crisply, picking up another piece of goose meat and stuffing it into his mouth, his little feet sticking up.

The thought that the Black and White Impermanence and Granny Meng couldn't get any food made her feel sad again.

She lives a life of luxury in the human world, while the underworld officials toil away in the netherworld.

"What's wrong?" The emperor noticed her slightly off expression and asked with concern.

Renbao looked at him, clasped her hands together, and said in a soft voice, "Uncle Emperor, could you leave for a while? I'll invite my ghost messengers up for a good meal, okay?"

The emperor paused, realizing that Renbao really thought of himself as a little devil.

"Yes, but why should I leave?" the emperor asked, puzzled.

Renbao said, "It's because Uncle Emperor has dragon energy protecting him. The purple light on you is so hot that it will make them unable to open their eyes and feel uncomfortable."

Emperor: Shall I leave?

Faced with Renbao's adorable little expression, he gave in: "Fine, I'll go wait in the side hall."

"Eunuch Liu, give me three sticks of incense," Renbao said to Eunuch Liu.

Eunuch Liu looked at the emperor, and seeing him nod, immediately brought over some incense.

Renbao lit the incense.

The temperature inside the inner hall dropped in the next moment, and a chilly wind blew in.

Black and White Impermanence, Ox-Head and Horse-Face have all arrived.

Renbao looked left and right, then pouted and asked, "Where's Granny Meng?"

"There have been too many ghosts being reincarnated these days, and Granny Meng has been too busy to come up. She specifically asked me to say hello to you, Little Yama," Bai Wuchang said with a slight smile.

When Black Impermanence, Ox-Head, and Horse-Face arrived in the human world and saw Renbao, they surrounded her, looking her over from all angles.

"Little Yama has gotten a bit chubby, so cute." Black Impermanence looked at Renbao with a kind expression.

The ox-headed and horse-faced demons grinned, looking quite honest and simple.

Renbao thought of how she had summoned many ghosts to do things, sending them all to the underworld so they could announce their names and be reincarnated at the Bridge of Helplessness.

She looked a little guilty and turned her eyes around. It was she who had kept Granny Meng so busy.

The White Impermanence, being perceptive, saw through her thoughts and comforted her, saying, "It's a good thing that the ghosts have accumulated merit to be reincarnated. Granny Meng especially praised you for doing a good job, and you're becoming more and more like the King of Hell."

"Really?" Renbao's little ears perked up, and he became excited. Pointing to the table full of delicious food, he said, "Uncle ghost messengers, come and eat with me! This is royal cuisine from the palace; we can't usually eat it."

The four ghost messengers sat down and began to feast, praising the delicious taste as they ate.

The emperor went to the side hall, and Su Xuance went there as well.

He watched as the emperor pressed himself tightly against the door like a thief, peeking through the crack at the view of the inner palace. His jaw tightened slightly, and he forced a smile back down his throat.

The emperor only noticed that Renbao would occasionally talk to thin air, his little expressions lively and animated.

He wondered to himself, could it be that he had really invited a ghost messenger up?

They ate and drank their fill.

White Impermanence looked at Renbao and said solemnly, "Little Yama, there's an evil spirit being kept in the Marquis's mansion. You have to go there and subdue it."

Renbao hurriedly asked, "Is it that evil spirit that escaped from the underworld?"

Bai Wuchang shook his head: "I don't know yet, you'll have to go and see for yourself."

Renbao clenched his little fist: "Okay! Renbao can definitely do it, catch the evil spirit!"

After the ghost messengers went down to the underworld.

Renbao was in a hurry to leave the palace. After the emperor granted his permission, he went into the inner hall and curiously tasted the remaining dishes.

It tastes like chewing wax, completely tasteless.

The emperor had heard that food consumed by the dead would lose its flavor. He looked in the direction where Renbao had left the palace. The little celestial master even had the ability to command ghost messengers.

Renbao returned to his residence.

Tao Xiang greeted him with a serious expression: "My lord, this servant has something to report about the Marquis's residence."

"Go to the study," Su Xuance said, just about to put Renbao down from his arms.

Renbao immediately hugged his neck: "Renbao wants to hear too!"
