Shang Palace, Dawang Palace.
Unknowingly, Di Xin is no longer young. Although he is still in his prime, sitting on the throne now, his burly figure is already a little rickety, and he has gained a lot of white hair overnight.
A dozen ministers sat behind two rows of low tables, each remaining silent and not daring to say a word.
I don’t know how much time passed, but Di Xin asked in a hoarse voice:
“Is there a letter?”
Wang Shubi Gan stood up and said: “Your Majesty, Xiqi is a long way from Chaoge, and it is necessary to send beacon messages..."
"Report——"
Suddenly there were generals running outside the palace, and when they entered the palace gate, they cupped their fists and shouted:
"The Grand Master Wen Zhong led his army to attack Xiqi City, but the rebels from the north and south came just in time to besiege the Grand Master in Xiqi City.
The Grand Master...
The rear army has returned to various passes, respecting the order of the Grand Master, to defend the Kingdom of Zhou!"
"Huh?"
"Why, Grand Master!"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army to challenge Zhou!"
The expressions of the ministers changed drastically. Some of them even panicked and got up too hard and knocked them over. Low table.
Di Xin closed his eyes and remained speechless. His body trembled a few times, but he did not show any signs of losing his composure.
After the palace became quiet, Di Xin spoke, his breath unavoidably trembling.
"Come here, please give the Grand Master's words to all of you dear friends."
Several soldiers came to the side immediately and placed the bamboo slips in their arms one by one. In front of all the ministers.
Di Xin said:
"The Grand Master was trapped in Xiqi. On his deathbed, he asked in a dream and offered six strategies to save the country.
Except for the first strategy, the other five I wish you all to come up with a plan.
The Taishi said that the blame should be placed on him. How can I do it? What is Shang's crime?
Chaoge City belongs to the Taishi. For ten days after the death, all the people will mourn together, and those who violate the rules will be killed. ”
“Your Majesty,” Bigan bowed and saluted.
"You temporarily take over the duties of the Grand Master at home, and order Fei Lian to temporarily take over the duties of the Grand Master at the outside world. The wars in various places are temporarily suspended, and you can find one or two small countries to pardon, and demonstrate the benevolence and righteousness of the great merchants.
Uncle Wang, you have a delicate heart, and are known to all businessmen for your intelligence and intelligence. You are also the most famous person in the royal family today.
You are here to correct my mistakes and write a remonstrance. You can scold me at will. I will naturally admit my mistakes and shortcomings."
Di Xin sighed feebly:
"The Grand Master said that we did not go the wrong way, we just used it. The method is wrong, the purpose is unclear, and it is too radical.
If the grand master said this on a normal day, I would not believe it. How could I believe it? But when the grand master asked him a dream before his death, what else could I say? ?
Come on, everyone, let’s take a closer look at the Grand Master’s words. We will go back to the palace to rest for now.
From now on, the great businessman has lost a pillar, and there are people from outside the country. If you want to plot evil and harm our great business, Jiangshan and Sheji, the road ahead is bleak.The situation is uncertain and the fate of the country is full of worries. If we want to establish our ancestors' inheritance, we still need your full help.
The Grand Master has fallen, but the Great Shang cannot fall. ”
The king, who was still high-spirited a few days ago, stood up and stared at the more than ten important ministers below with bloodshot eyes. Then he sighed, walked to the side of the high platform with his hands behind his back, and walked out of the side hall.< /p>
All the ministers saluted together, each holding up the bamboo slips in front of them and carefully looking at the writings on them.
The figure of Emperor Xin. Slumped in the soft couch, his eyes were a little empty, and he was silent, not knowing what to say.
A beautiful woman came from the side, gently pressed a pair of catkins on Di Xin's shoulders, and called softly: "Your Majesty, please don't work too hard..."
"My dear concubine, let me be quiet for a while. "
"Your Majesty..."
"Go down. "
"Yes," Daji hurriedly took half a step back, bowed slightly to Di Xin, and left the palace with three steps.
She didn't go far, but she was standing beside her. Resting on the soft couch beside the pool, a little immortal consciousness spread out, paying attention to the clay sculpture-like figure of Di Xin sitting in the empty pavilion.
Wen Zhongjingjing. Standing in the southeast corner, I stared at the faint clouds and mist surrounding the universe here, and remained motionless for a long time.
In the distance, the hall was filled with endless singing, and it was a fairy banquet for Wen Zhong to "receive the wind and wash away the dust."
Drunk and singing, what is life like?
But Wen Zhong, the protagonist who was taken over, no one paid attention to him at this time. , it’s a bit desolate after all.
……
“Sister, what are you thinking about? "
On the Three Immortals Island, in the Yunxiao Boudoir, the fairy who was leaning in front of the window and staring at the jade statue outside the building recovered her mind after hearing the words, and turned to Qiong Xiao, who came with the wine and smiled gently.
Yun Xiao said softly: "I'm thinking about how my elder brother is doing at the Conferred God Platform. ”
“Is there any difference?
Qiong Xiao covered her mouth and chuckled, and said jokingly: "Now, our eldest brother must be extremely proud. He beheaded the sixth saint, and the heaven will not enshrine him as a treasure?"
I seem to have heard from my senior brother that my eldest brother is now the tenth in the Heavenly Dao sequence, and my brother-in-law is just the ninth in the Heavenly Dao sequence. ”
Yunxiao shook his head with a smile. His clothes were flying and he was behind the low table. He stared at the clear wine and was lost in thought.
Qiongxiao blinked and didn’t ask any more questions. , picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
After a moment, Yunxiao chuckled and whispered: "Third sister, tell me, this was all arranged by him. , or is there something variable? "
"This..."
Qiong Xiao couldn't help but tilted his head and groaned a few times, "It's hard to say. Judging from the situation at the time, it seemed that he killed the third person in anger. Six Saints, but the brother-in-law is very cunning.
Hmm!
Think carefully and arrange things carefully. You can see the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps behind you with every step you take.If he really killed the Sixth Saint out of anger, this Saint would be too easy to kill.
They should have been prepared in advance, and did the twenty-four heavens evolve just as they were told?
There is also the Heavenly Dao sequence. My brother-in-law has been busy for hundreds of years, working with the Dragon Clan and helping the underworld, and brought Heaven to its current position, and then he got the tenth position in the Heavenly Dao sequence.
The eldest brother’s authority in heaven is only slightly lower than that of his brother-in-law, and higher than that of Ksitigarbha who completes the six-path reincarnation system.
This cannot be achieved simply by saying it.
The eldest brother still foolishly thinks that his brother-in-law is angry at his brother, so this must be his plan. "
Yunxiao glanced at Qiongxiao with a hint of annoyance, and said seriously: "Shoudu planned so many things just to save his eldest brother. "
"Yes, yes, my little sister said the wrong thing. "
Qiong Xiao's beautiful eyes turned into crescent moons as she smiled, "Sister, you haven't married yet, and you don't want my sister to say that he is not.
Alas, any sisterly love is fake, and so is the companionship of so many polyamorous groups. "
Yunxiao couldn't say anything for a moment, but he felt that what his sister said was reasonable. He had indeed neglected the two sisters, and his heart was worried about the immortal god in the sky.
"This is my sister's fault," Yun Xiao sighed softly, "but my sister is also a little helpless about this. Love is a word that is bitter and bitter, but it also has many wonderful advantages.
If you can find the person you like in the future, you will definitely experience it.
Qiong Xiao made a face and complained: "Sister, you have set the tone too high. How can we find the one we love?"
I am afraid it will be difficult to find a second person like my brother-in-law. ”
“He is actually not a strange person. ”
Yunxiao thought about it carefully, with a smile on his face and a smile on his face. There was a little bit of relief and joy in his eyes. He was obviously innately powerful, but at this moment, his heart suddenly fell into the depths of Yunxiao.
"He just has some ideas that are different and some that are unimaginable.
The principles he believes in make me think carefully and gain something every time. "
As he spoke, Yunxiao picked up the wine glass with his slender fingers, took a sip lightly on his lips, and said softly: "At this time, I just want to wait until the catastrophe is over, and I can be with him. , no longer have to endure such invisible pain. "
Qiong Xiao:...
Sister, it is almost hopeless.
"I don’t know how the next catastrophe will work," Qiong Xiao looked at the clouds outside the window, "I always feel that this catastrophe is different from what we thought.
Although there is a chill in the world, it is much less evil, and it is limited to us and Chanjiao.
The great catastrophe in ancient times and ancient times was frightening. The mountains and plains were filled with creatures. They were inextricably killed and the world could be broken at any time. "
Yunxiao said: "Any death or injury is not a good thing, so don't expect any big scenes. "
"Oh," Qiong Xiao agreed, elbowHe leaned against the low table and looked out the window, lost in thought.
......
Those countermeasures can help Shang State, and how long can they help Shang State?
It is difficult for Li Changshou to make a judgment.
He actually deceived Wen Zhong a little bit, coaxing him to say that now that the situation here has changed, he needs the king of Shang to resist the destiny for a while longer.
Actually...
Beheading the Sixth Saint has caused the power of the creatures in the world to ebb, and the power of the great catastrophe has dissipated a lot. The attitudes of the two religions towards the great catastrophe have been explained. transformed.
Although the change of royal power in the secular world of Nanzhou is still extremely important to the destiny of heaven and earth, it has no weight in the game between Li Changshou and Dao Ancestor.
The reason why Li Changshou took action was simply to see how Tiandao and Daozu could break the situation, so as to deepen his understanding of Tiandao and Daozu. It would also be good to increase his chances of winning.
The convergence of interpretation and interpretation really makes people a little confused as to how to start.
The theory is very rich and the action is very skinny.
The difficulty lies in how to get the second and third uncles to accept their ideas and promote them to the two religions.
The Tao Ancestor will definitely not sit idly by and put pressure on and divide the Tao Sect through various channels.
This is the biggest problem I face at this time.
In the thatched cottage by the lake, Li Changshou put his hands in his long hair and stared at the dozens of jade talismans in front of him. Now he would arrange the jade talismans into a snake shape, and then into a building block. Jade House'.
No matter how he thinks, if he wants to complete the fusion of interpretation and interpretation, he must first remove the factors of Taozu.
That is, the Taoist ancestors must be wiped out first before the Chan Jiao and Jie Jiao can be rescued from the catastrophe.
This level of difficulty is too high.
Is Taozu the Sixth Saint? Being slapped casually by his own teacher almost made him fall from the holy throne.
The key is...
He is just like when Blue Star played games in his previous life. If you want to defeat this big monster, at least the big monster must show its blood bar, right?
It’s still the same thing to be able to fight but not to fight. Now the Taoist ancestors are in harmony with the heavenly way, and the Taoist ancestors are the way of heaven.
I can’t kill Zixiao Palace and shout:
‘Master, light up your health bar! ’
It is estimated that Dao Ancestor directly condensed the power of heaven and earth. Even if he could not kill the ‘escaping one’, he could still shock himself into paralysis and find a dark and cold corner.
The reason why Daozu has not dealt with him actually has other motives, which involves the deepest level of the game between them.
Li Changshou flicked his fingers, and the jade talismans in front of him scattered on the table, being fiddled with at will by his fingers.
According to the current thinking, the conjunction of interpretation and interpretation must occur after the great tribulation, becoming an important means to preserve the destiny and teachings of Taoism, so that the concept of Taoism will not dissipate in the world.
That is the content of the next stage of the game.
Stage?
Not bad,Li Changshou divided the game with Heavenly Dao into four stages.
The first stage is the charging period, which begins at the beginning of the Great Tribulation of the Gods, when Master Qiyuan dies.
At that time, I needed strength and sufficient Dao realm to be able to break through the many secrets of heaven and earth, heaven, and Dao ancestors, improve my own struggle program, and formulate follow-up plans and various backup plans.
The second stage is the forbearance stage, which begins with conquering the Kunpeng Ark.
At that time, I didn’t dare to mention such things as rebelling against the sky, and I wouldn’t even think about it. I focused on improving my strength and secretly accepting the legacy of Senior Lang. In fact, it was just some loopholes in the Tao Ancestor’s destiny and the way of heaven.
The third stage is the tactical confusion period, which starts after you finish arranging Nezha.
At that time, after absorbing the variables of Yang Jian and Nezha, Li Changshou had become the biggest variable. At that time, he was focused on lurking and talked about escaping from the prehistoric times every day.
Anyway, true and false, false and true.
At this stage, Li Changshou was inevitably in conflict with Heaven, but he tried his best to confuse Heaven.
At this moment, we are in the late stage of tactical confusion.
Li Changshou has basically determined that in five to ten years, the Great Tribulation of the Gods will come to an end, and a war between saints will inevitably break out, and he will have to face the way of heaven and enter the fourth stage.
A moderate counterattack after careful consideration and comprehensive analysis.
What will Daozu do next?
In fact, Daozu has nothing to do. Just like Li Changshou at this time, their respective layouts have been completed, and they are waiting for the results to come out, and then guide the results in a direction that is beneficial to themselves.
Just wait.
If Daozu doesn’t move, he himself won’t move.
As long as Daozu makes a move, his chance of winning will increase by at least 0.10%.
So in the next few years, Li Changshou lived a quite leisurely life, and these were also the years when he was most active.
He would go to the Moon Palace to teach Chang'e how to dance, and he would also drink and have fun with old ministers like Mugong and Yue Lao.
I would go to the Lingxiao Palace to attend the court meeting, and I would stand at the top of the high platform, which scared some of the old ministers to the point of trembling when they spoke.
He trained a team and handed over the refining method of the 'live broadcast' bronze mirror to Heaven, and also set the rules for the 'green live broadcast'.
He was concerned about the health of the Queen Mother and sent a few pregnancy elixirs from Laojun so that His Majesty the Jade Emperor could collect the Seven Dragon Balls and the Seven Fairies as soon as possible.
He will also go to Nanzhou for a walk, wandering on the earthly land for half a day, and resting for some time among the mountains and flowing water.
Even, he took Ling'e to visit Fang Town twice more, and told Ling'e earnestly that for some time in the future, he might not have the chance to have fun in a place like this.
Of course, the place he visited most was the Fengshen Platform, which he built into a training institution for immortals that integrated ‘teaching, entertainment, eating, drinking and having fun’.
AlthoughRanduo was drinking and chatting with Zhao Gongming, looking forward to how cute the two little guys would be after the Golden Spirit Mother gave birth.
However, the Golden Spirit Mother wants to give birth again after the catastrophe.
The innate power is so wonderful. You don’t have to follow the rules of mortals. The longer the child is gestated in your body, the higher the starting point of his birth will be.
It can’t be compared, it can’t be compared, it can’t be offended.
Li Changshou did not observe the changes in the Nanzhou Shang Kingdom carefully. He probably took a few glances to get an idea.
The strategies he gave to Wen Zhong, Wen Zhong followed the script and recited it to Di Xin.
The death of Wen Zhong deeply touched Di Xin, and made him intuitively bear the pressure from gods and gods on mortals.
There is also a ‘traitor of the Notre Dame Palace’ beside Di Xin.
The deeper the relationship between him and Daji, the more submissive Daji became to him, and even said things such as explaining the teaching, intercepting the teaching, the disaster of immortals, etc., which should not be said to the mortal emperor.
Di Xin was depressed for several months, but when he promulgated a series of new policies, his spirit was filled again.
This new deal was not initially taken seriously by the various princes. Most of them felt that the Shang State was in decline, and Wen Zhong's death was a precursor to the decline of the Shang State.
In the New Deal, Emperor Xin abolished dozens of tortures, weakened the implicated matters, and strengthened the details of punishment and law.
Reducing some taxes, and giving certain money and silk incentives to merchants who take the initiative to free slaves.
Establish a military merit system and a civilian medal system, and give corresponding rewards to businessmen who do good, eliminate evil, and are loyal and filial to the people of the Shang Kingdom.
If a slave rescues a merchant, the slave can be freed.
Slaves who had been growing grain for ten consecutive years before were given a piece of land in a remote area.
Consult the elderly and infirm businessmen on a regular basis...
And so on.
While implementing the New Deal, Di Xin also posted notices to the outside world, explaining the purpose of his series of measures - to inherit the aspirations of his ancestors and establish a new big business.
The old have someone to rely on, the young have someone to rely on, value benevolence, righteousness and virtue, set rules and draw circles.
Di Xin also said this at the court meeting:
[Since Great Shang conquered the princes once, he can conquer the princes a second time. 】
Di Xin completely gave up trying to win over the rebel princes, mobilized troops to guard various places, and concentrated superior forces to first solve the biggest Jiang family trouble in the east.
In this way, within a few years, Dashang’s situation unexpectedly stabilized again.
The opposition to Emperor Xin in Chaoge City became smaller and smaller, and the veterans began to think about the way to survive. Merchants became more and more enthusiastic to join the merchant army, and grain and grass from various places were continuously transported to the border areas.
In contrast, the Zhou State united its princes, gathered all the princes' forces, and held the first major military parade in the human race in the land of Mengjin. Hundreds of princes were summoned, and the army continued indefinitely.
All the princes gathered together to form a blood alliance.He respects Ji Fa, who calls him the King of Martial Arts, and sets his sights on the richest commercial land.
There is of course Chan Jiao who is constantly helping behind the scenes, and many princes even chose to join the Zhou Kingdom array after being persuaded by the Chan Jiao Immortal.
Emperor Xin’s new policy;
Mengjin’s alliance.
In just a few years, the mortal race has been completely divided into two camps, and Di Xin's side still holds the advantage.
Similarly, because Jiejiao changed its strategy and greatly reduced its support for Shang, Jiejiao and Chanjiao have only had a dozen immortals fighting to death in the past few years, and the Conferred God Platform has made no progress.
How will Heaven act?
What method will Daozu use to end the Great Tribulation of Gods?
Li Changshou was also a little curious in his heart.
On this day, he rode out from Mugong Immortal Mansion and returned to his Taibai Palace and Xiaoqiong Peak. As soon as he stepped into the gate of Taibai Palace, Li Changshou suddenly felt a Taoist charm coming from him. It slipped from the sky and fell straight towards Xiaoqiong Peak.
With a glare, Li Changshou flashed out.
This extremely obscure Taoist rhyme!
This mysterious and incomparable aura!
There are also strange ripples appearing in the universe!
Li Changshou's figure flashed several times, and he rushed into the large formation he had set up. He rushed into the formation outside the alchemy room and faced the [lost? ] A figure appeared in front of the wooden sign, frowning and looking at the 'reception room' in the forest ahead.
A burly Taoist stood in front of the wooden sign, looking at the handwriting on the wooden sign at leisure.
Wide robe, long hair, Taoist hoops...
In the thatched house, Ling'e is trapped by the Chaos Bell;
In the spirit beast circle and the lake, Those constantly trembling spirit beasts and spirit fish...
Li Changshou quickly adjusted his expression, walked a few steps forward, and said loudly:
"Master, why are you here?" If you don’t tell me in advance, it’s better for you to clean up and keep everything in order.”
