After the birthday celebration, Liu An naturally stayed at Queen Jiang's place.
In the blink of an eye, the night passed.
Early in the morning, Liu An and Queen Jiang reluctantly bid farewell. What awaited Liu An was tedious official business.
It couldn't be helped. Who asked Liu An to be King Zhou! As the king, there were a lot of things waiting for him every day.
Inside the palace!
Liu An was reading the memorials. As a newcomer, reading more memorials would allow him to understand his Great Shang Dynasty faster.
At this moment, Wang Fugui quietly stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, Shen Gongbao requests an audience." Wang Fugui said.
Shen Gongbao? Liu An attached great importance to this person.
This guy had the ability and connections. He was not inferior to Jiang Ziya at all. However, he was a little unlucky and was dealt with by Jiang Ziya during the apotheosis.
It didn't matter. Now that he was here, everything would be changed. In Liu An's eyes, Shen Gongbao was a sharp sword. If he used it well, he could cut through all obstacles and become invincible. If he used it badly, it would worsen the situation of the Shang Dynasty.
"Let him in." Liu An said.
Shen Gongbao is coming!
Shen Gongpao was a little more relaxed than he was yesterday, especially when he saw the brick on Liu An's waist. He felt his scalp tingle. That day was an insult to him.
"Greetings, Great King." Shen Gongbao bowed.
His identity as a Daoist priest made him different from other ministers. He did not need to kneel down for everything. This alone made him look much more impressive.
"Taoist Priest Shen came to see King Zhou early. What's the matter?”Liu An said indifferently.
Liu An had thought about how to deal with the relationship between his subordinates.
If it was too good, they would think that you were too weak and easy to bully. If they were too overbearing, they would be afraid that they would quit their jobs or do things perfunctorily. They would be all kinds of unimpressive, so they had to be soft and gentle.
"Your Majesty, I once traveled all over the world and obtained a Mirage Mirror. This mirror has no offensive ability and only has one useless skill, which is spying! This mirror only needs to lock onto a person's aura, and there is an hour of time every day to observe any movement of that person. If I want to present it to Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty will like it.”Shen Gongbao said calmly.
However, those words shocked Liu An.
Illusionary Light Mirror? F * ck, he could look at people for an hour every day! What if he used it to look at beautiful women? That was too evil!
However, he had to admit that Shen Gongpao really meant it. He wanted to give the Illusionary Light Mirror to Liu An. Shen Gongpao really had a great imagination!
If it were the previous King Zhou, that beast, he would probably have agreed, but Liu An? He was a gentleman.
Moreover, Shen Gongpao must have ulterior motives. He probably wanted to exchange it for something. How could Liu An let him do as he wished? Moreover, he could not only agree to Shen Gongpao's request if he wanted the Illusionary Light Mirror.
Shen Gongpao secretly looked at Liu An, observing his attitude.
Liu An's expression changed immediately. Shen Gongpao also knew that something was wrong.、
"Shen Gongbao, why did you give me this?”Liu An berated.
"Your Majesty, Shen Gongbao has no other intentions.”Shen Gongpao looked embarrassed and panicked.
After all, he had to rely on Liu An for everything in Zhaoge. If he offended Liu An because of this, it would not be worth it.
"Humph! No other meaning? Then why did you offer this treasure to me?" Liu An sneered.
"This…" Shen Gongbao looked troubled.
No, he had to think of an explanation.
However, Shen Gongpao racked his brains but could not come up with a reasonable explanation.
"Your Majesty, Shen Gongpao only saw that this treasure has a special skill, so he specially offered it to Your Majesty.”Shen Gongbao smiled bitterly.
"Ridiculous!" Liu An's anger seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. He snorted,"This item can only lock onto the aura of others and peep at them. You want to give this item to me so that I can peep at the ministers or some girl from some family, right? Haha! Shen Gongpao, you're really ambitious.”
Seeing Liu An's words, Shen Gongpao was at a loss. This did not match what he had heard!
Shen Gongbao felt like crying, but he had no choice. If he wanted to stay in Zhaoge, he had to appease Liu An.
"This poor priest deserves to die. Please calm down, Your Majesty!”Shen Gongpao hurriedly apologized.
"Hmph, is it enough to say that you deserve to die?”Liu An sneered.
Shen Gongbao heard that there was a chance!
If Liu An was angry, then there was no chance to talk.
"I know my sins are grave, so please punish me, Your Majesty.”Shen Gongbao said solemnly.
"You have lost to me for ten years! What punishment was there now? You are also a cultivator, and if I punish you to do something, wouldn't that be a gift? Our Great Shang is full of talents, and many officials don't even have a chance to do anything.”Liu An said.
"Then I'll let you do whatever you want, Your Majesty." Shen Gongbao smiled bitterly.”
Shen Gongpao said as he let Liu An punish him.
It was true that Shen Gongpao had made a big mistake. If it were anyone else, they would have been sentenced to death. However, Shen Gongpao was an exception. He had profound Taoist skills. If he really made a big mistake, he would just leave. If he were to be beaten up a few hundred times, it would be too easy for Shen Gongpao.
In fact, Liu An had already expected this solution. He laughed in his heart. His plan had succeeded.
"You used this Illusionary Light Mirror to fool me. If I let you go back, who knows who you might use the Illusionary Light Mirror to fool in the future! Therefore, this item will be confiscated and you will be punished to face the wall and reflect on your mistakes for three days.”Liu An said indifferently.
"Your Majesty, how can this be?" Shen Gongpao was anxious. He hurriedly said, but Liu An had already interrupted him.
"Why not? I punished you so lightly, and you didn't even have time to thank me? Could it be that he still wanted to reject her? Shen Gongpao, you don't take me seriously at all.”Liu An's expression changed again.
"How dare I? I'll just be punished.”Shen Gongbao replied with a bitter smile.
King Zhou's expression changed really quickly.
He also knew that he had failed today.
