Frozen Cloud Immortal Empire. Chen Jiu had left for three days without a trace, and this caused the hundred cleaners to become more and more perturbed. After all, they had worked for half their lives, so how could they be as free as they were now?
"Hey, do you think Sir Manager left us behind and ran away?" Most of the cleaners were now on tenterhooks every day.
"It can't be, he is the second place of the tournament, the manager bestowed by the emperor, and I heard that he is the son-in-law of the Snow Palace. How could he run away?" Some of them still approved of Chen Jiu.
"But if he didn't run away, why is he nowhere to be seen? You have to know that according to his rules, the Immortal Palace is getting dirtier and dirtier! "The cleaners were mainly afraid that the Empress would blame them.
"Sigh, I don't know what's wrong with the State Preceptor Hall. Why do they have to worship the heavens and worship the ancestors almost every day? There's simply too much ash to clean!" There were some complaints, and the cleaners were also very helpless.
In order to target Chen Jiu, Bing Li forced him to lower his head. She was really becoming more and more unscrupulous!
"If you can't clean it up, then don't clean it up. I announce that tomorrow is a seven-day holiday. Go home and visit your families!" Chen Jiu suddenly returned at this time, and announced an even more tongue-tied order.
"What? Manager, you must be joking, right? "The cleaners were all dumbfounded. Who dared to leave?
"Do I look like I'm joking? With me here, what are you afraid of? "As Chen Jiu berated, the cleaners had no choice but to pack up and leave the Immortal Palace.
The Immortal Palace was so big that it was already difficult to clean it up. Now, Chen Jiu actually gave the cleaners a holiday. What was he doing?
One day, two days, three days, the Immortal Palace was filled with more and more ash. The State Preceptor Hall had already sent people to inform Chen Jiu several times, but he only responded and didn't move!
In the State Preceptor Hall, Bing Li looked at the ash on the ground and really couldn't stand it anymore. With so much ash, as long as someone left, it would really be a foul atmosphere.
"Li 'er, are you sure you are messing with someone and not being messed with?" State Preceptor Sima Kong couldn't stand it anymore.
"Damn it, father, what do you think Chen Jiu is doing? He actually dares to disregard the Immortal Palace's cleanliness. Does he really want to die? "Bing Li really couldn't understand.
"I don't understand either. Could it be that he intends to fight to the death? But I heard that he gave the cleaners a holiday, which means he doesn't plan to clean it up! "Sima Kong shook his head and reminded her.
"What? He's really seeking his own death! "Bing Li was very happy when she heard this," Father, you must help me report Chen Jiu! "
"Well, no matter what, you always have a legitimate reason, and Chen Jiu's crime of dereliction of duty is also unavoidable!" Sima Kong agreed after listening.
The Grand Preceptor Hall took the lead, while the Prime Minister and the other ministers acted as support. They were all rationally creating trash. When a layer of dust rose into the air during the morning assembly, the Ice Cloud Empress finally flipped out. "The environment in the Immortal Palace has been getting worse and worse these few days. Can my beloved ministers give me an explanation?"
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I have a memorial!" Then, as if they had discussed it beforehand, the ministers began to talk about Chen Jiu's dereliction of duty and inaction.
"Chen Jiu, how dare you! I let him be the Head of Cleanliness, yet he actually gave everyone a long vacation while he himself slept every day!" The Ice Cloud Empress was furious. In the imperial court, she ordered, "Bring that brat over!"
"Your Majesty, I'm innocent!" Chen Jiu was brought in obediently and began to shout from afar.
"Chen Jiu, as the Head of Cleanliness, you made a mess in the Immortal Palace. You deserve to die …" Sima Kong took the lead and criticized Chen Jiu.
"State Preceptor, Prime Minister, may I ask who brought the dust in the Immortal Palace? My Hall of Cleanliness is only one person, and I don't go out all day. You know very well where this trash came from! "Chen Jiu was naturally not convinced and made a countercharge.
"What? You … Don't try to quibble. Although most of the dust came from the State Preceptor Hall, how can there be no dust in the Hall of Cleanliness? "Sima Kong and the others naturally had their reasons since they dared to say so.
"But you sealed the sky and worshipped the ancestors every day. We can't even clean up the dust!" Chen Jiu said helplessly.
"If you can't clean up the dust, then you give everyone a holiday and just don't clean up? Chen Jiu, do you know that this is a serious dereliction of duty? "Sima Kong thought that victory was in his hands.
"Of course not. It's not that I don't want to clean up, but I want to do it more efficiently and completely clean up the Immortal Palace. I want to give Your Majesty a clean and holy life!" Chen Jiu was suddenly energized.
"Haha, what a clean and holy life. Do you want us to be like you, doing nothing but sleeping all day?" The courtiers laughed without restraint.
"No, Your Majesty, please take a look. After thinking about it day and night, I have already created a special cleaning machine. This machine can maintain the Immortal Palace's environment all day long!" Chen Jiu was not flustered. Instead, he took out a cleaning robot and started it.
"Buzz …" The cleaning robot was almost silent when it was operating. It only made a little noise when it was using a large suction force to remove the dust. The crowd watched in amazement as Chen Jiu released a floating disc-like object. It swayed around the Hall of Cleanliness a few times, and the environment was immediately purified. There was even a faint sense of freshness!
Cleaning, filtering, and releasing plasma. No one knew about such advanced technology, but Empress Bingyun's eyes immediately lit up. She liked this kind of freshness.
Chen Jiu saw that the cleaning machine had successfully attracted Empress Bingyun's interest, so he immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake. "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I was so engrossed in my research these days that I forgot about the Immortal Palace's environment. I thought that everyone would spontaneously protect the Immortal Palace, but who would have thought that it would turn out like this? Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
"Boy, you …" It was not bad that he admitted his mistake, but he also checkmated the courtiers. It was really difficult for them to swallow.
"Chen Jiu, you are right. It is everyone's responsibility to protect the environment. My courtiers were a little careless!" Empress Bingyun quickly made a decision. "However, your dereliction of duty is not fake. But since you are engrossed in your research, I will not blame you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chen Jiu and the courtiers thanked her gratefully.
"Alright, Chen Jiu, how many of these cleaning machines do you have?" Empress Bingyun asked with interest.
"If Your Majesty thinks that they are useful, please allow me to take some materials from the national treasury. When the time comes, I will make more of them and let them spread all over the Immortal Palace to clean the environment at any time!" Chen Jiu made his request. He felt that it would be abnormal if he did not take the opportunity to make a fortune.
