Zi Shou's voice is not loud, and his expression is very calm, but every word he speaks is resounding, with strong self-confidence, and a captivating look appears from him in every move he makes.
It is this kind of confidence and momentum that makes people unable to help but feel convinced...
"Is this...the aura of a king?"
Huang Feihu looked at Zi Shou and couldn't help being surprised and happy. He was keenly aware that Zi Shou's whole person had undergone tremendous changes after his return.
He is the son of Huang Gun, the famous merchant general. He was born into the Zhongliang family of the seventh generation of Dashang Dynasty. Because of his outstanding martial arts talent and similar age, he was selected as the third prince's companion. He studied under the Grand Master Wen Zhong and learned the art of war and strategy. Practice martial arts.
It can be said that the two of them have been inseparable since they were young. They grew up together and have a close affection for each other. They have already regarded each other as brothers.
He also knew that this prince was concerned about the country and the people, and he had already secretly vowed to help this 'brother' stabilize the empire of Dashang.
It's a pity that he has never seen this prince show any thoughts about the throne before... even though this prince is also qualified to inherit.
As we all know, Emperor Yi of the Shang Dynasty had three sons, the eldest brother Zi Qi, the second son Zhong Yan, and the third son Zi Shou, all born from the same mother.
Logically speaking, the heir to the Shang throne should have been Zi Qi, the eldest son, so there shouldn't be any controversy.
But the problem lies in that when the queen gave birth to her son Qihe Zhongyan, she was still a concubine. Later, she became the head wife and gave birth to the third prince, son Shou.
So now in the court, the ministers are quarreling over the heir.
On one side, all the civil servants overwhelmingly supported Zi Qi, believing that Zi Qi was the eldest son and should be the heir.
However, this was opposed by the historian Taishi, who believed that according to the ancestral system and etiquette, the son of a concubine could not become a king as long as the son of the principal wife was alive.
As a result, the throne has been vacant and has not been decided.
And he, Huang Feihu, naturally supported the third prince unconditionally, whether it was for public or private reasons.
Privately, he and Zishou had grown up and had a kinship and brotherhood. However, as a public figure, now that the great merchants were suffering from internal and external troubles, he felt that the eldest prince who valued civility over military affairs was really unfit for the throne.
It should be noted that today's big businessmen are no longer what they used to be, and their situation can be said to be quite dangerous.
Previously, Dashang experienced severe internal strife caused by the Nine Generations Rebellion, and its strength was greatly reduced. Its dominance and deterrence over the world's princes and Fang countries were no longer as good as before.
In recent years, after hearing that King Shang was seriously ill, the princes and kingdoms from all over the world stopped paying tribute to the Shang Dynasty.
Secondly, there are barbarian tribes from all directions, such as Guifang and Tufang, who have taken advantage of the situation and grown in strength, threatening the rule of Dashang.
It would be fine if there were only these external troubles. The key point is that the internal affairs of the great merchants are also incessant. Those chaos have intensified the internal conflicts of the nobles in the court. The royal nobles are arrogant, wanton, extravagant, and deviant...
Today's great merchants are really in a state of turmoil. He feels that it will be over sooner or later when he leaves the country and the country to the prince and a group of civil servants who value military affairs and culture.
On the contrary, Prince Zishou has been brave and resourceful since he was a child, but every time he mentioned the throne before, Zishou would change the topic with a calm smile, which made him feel very depressed.
And now... I have finally arrived.
But at this moment, a woman in yellow clothes with a sword came to the door, quietly looked in, and when she found Zi Shou, she ran in happily and said: "Third brother, you are back. If you don't come back, I will kill you."
He was beaten to death by my brother."
Huang Feihu's face darkened and he hummed: "If the Third Highness makes a mistake..."
"It's okay, Feihu!"
Zishou waved his hand and smiled, looked at the pretty girl in front of him, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, Fei Luan, I'm back."
The girl blushed slightly and said: "Hehe, it's not that hard actually. My brother won't hit me. Besides, if he hits me, won't I run away?"
Huang Feihu stared angrily: "That's because His Highness is back. If you don't come back, try it."
"Just give it a try. Come on, my sword, Huang Feiluan, is not vegetarian, just a little bit..."
Huang Feiluan ran up behind Zishou and made faces at Huang Feihu: "The third brother has loved me the most since I was little. Today, with the third brother here, you can't even think of laying a finger on me."
"You...you girl deserves a beating!"
Huang Feihu raised his hand angrily and was about to hit him, but Huang Feiluan circled Zishou to avoid him.
"Okay, okay, you brothers and sisters have been arguing like this since you were young. You are now adults. Feihu, I will return the colorful sacred cow to you."
Zishou had long been accustomed to this scene. After watching the brother and sister fight for a while, his expression became serious and he said: "Next, help me find someone, and do it quickly."
Huang Feihu and Huang Feiluan stopped fighting when they saw this: "Who is your highness looking for?"
"That person's name is Li Jing!"
Just as Zi Meng was talking, there was a sudden bang and a loud noise.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
The expressions of the three people changed drastically and they quickly rushed out of the room. They saw the sky was covered with clouds and the wind was strong.
At this time, there was a tall building in the west of Chaoge City, and a figure stood on top of it.
I saw him wearing a black bird robe with gold embroidery, making a sound in the strong wind, and he was rubbing a gold seal in his hand at the moment, with a look of self-mockery on his face.
Hugh! Hugh! Hugh!
Figures came from all directions and surrounded him in the center. Among them were warriors and Qi refiners.
"Li Jing, my Yin family is also a royal family. How can it be that you commit murders and injuries, come and leave as you please?"
A middle-aged man with a majestic expression said in a deep voice: "As a member of the Xuandiao Division, do you know the laws of Dashang?"
Next to the middle-aged man, a young man in gorgeous clothes snorted disdainfully: "No, even if you become the Black Bird Si Jinyin, so what, you still can't change your lowly origin. With your lowly status
Bloodline also wants to marry Guang Ling, are you worthy?"
"Chengxiu!" the middle-aged man scolded.
The young man curled his lips and turned his head in dissatisfaction.
"Haha, noble, humble..."
Li Jing clenched his fists and clenched the golden seal, his eyes became cold: "Where is Guang Ling, I want to see her!"
"Li Jing, to be honest, I admire your perseverance and perseverance. For Guangling, you can step by step from a new member of the Black Bird Division to the Golden Seal. This is rare and not easy, especially when you are so
You are young and your future is limitless."
The middle-aged man said calmly: "This could have been a great thing. Look, why make it so unpleasant? I heard that your qualifications are not very good, so..."
His eyes flashed and he said: "You want you to give us the secret of how to transform from an ordinary person to your level of strength within ten years. As the second uncle of Guangling, I, Yin Pobai, promise you in my name that I will
Guang Ling is betrothed to you, won’t we become a family by then?”
"She is human!"
Li Jing looked at him and suddenly said.
"Huh?" Yin Pobai was stunned.
"It's not an object or tool that anyone uses for exchange, understand? And..."
Li Jing shouted angrily: "Your face really disgusts me."
As he spoke, golden light erupted from his body, his aura surged, he jumped from the top of the building and spanned dozens of feet, made a fist seal, and his fist burst into flames and struck towards Yin Pobai.
"Huh, stubborn! Come on!"
When Yin Pobai heard the words, his eyes turned cold. After hearing the order, a member of the Yin family next to him took up his true energy and jumped up to meet Li Jing.
However, within a moment they were like dumplings, falling from the air to the ground one by one, groaning softly, all with broken muscles and bones. Almost all of them defeated the enemy with one or two moves, and it was difficult for anyone to surpass the third move.
Extraordinary realm... When Yin Pobai saw the scene of Li Jing taking action, his eyes flashed: "But something doesn't seem right. His power is enough to rival the Immortal Realm, but... it's weird, really weird."
"Dad, this guy doesn't look that powerful."
Yin Chengxiu was eager to try: "It's just a transcendent realm. It shouldn't be a big problem for me to take him down in the same realm."
No, the problem is huge... Yin Pobai glanced at his son and said softly: "A commander does not go into battle to fight, but sits firmly in the military tent and commands the overall situation."
Although he is also in an extraordinary realm, Li Jing has been in the Xuantiao Division where he has been responsible for slaying demons for many years. He fights demons and monsters between life and death every day. In exchange, he can strike quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, without any unnecessary movements.<
/p>
And... Li Jing is very weird.
Yin Chengxiu said anxiously: "But dad, our people are almost finished. What if things get serious?"
"What I want is to make the matter bigger. The bigger the trouble becomes, the more violent and unreasonable he becomes."
Yin Pobai's eyes flashed: "Even the Black Bird Division won't be able to protect him by then and will have no choice but to hand him over to us. What we have to do now is to hold him until the Black Bird Division people can handle him."
Yin Chengxiu was stunned and said with a smile: "Dad, you are so tall!"
You kid still has a lot to learn... Yin Pobai smiled calmly.
At this time, in a separate courtyard of the Yin family.
Yin Guangling was besieged by a group of warriors and was unable to escape.
A young man stood next to him with a fighting weapon in his hand, with a look of unbearable expression on his face: "Sister, this matter is related to the rise of our Yin family, so just listen to my second uncle's arrangements!"
"That boy is devoted to you. If you don't like him, then kill him when you get what we want..."
"Fart!" Yin Guangling angrily shouted after hearing this: "Who do you think I am, Yin Chengbai, the Yin family has to rely on us without our parents, but not in this way, do you still have any backbone?"
The young man blushed and bowed his head in shame after being scolded.
"Besides, do you think he will be coerced by you?" Yin Guangling said coldly.
Yin Chengbai was stunned: "No way?"
"If he accepts coercion, he is not a person worthy of my fancy." Yin Guangling smiled.
At this time, a man hurried in and whispered a few words to Yin Chengbai.
Yin Chengbai was surprised: "What?"
"What's wrong?" Yin Guangling asked hurriedly.
Yin Chengbai's expression changed for a moment, and he sighed dejectedly: "He went to beat the Yin family..."
When Yin Guangling heard this, he couldn't help but laugh happily: "What happens next?"
"Sister, if you are still smiling at this time, wouldn't he leave you and leave?" Yin Chengbai said.
Yin Guang Lingdan smiled and said: "He won't!"
Yin Chengbai sighed: "No, he is looking for you everywhere in Chaoge. My second uncle and the others are leading people to intercept him. It's over, it's over. Once this thing gets serious... it won't be able to end."
"No matter what happens in the end, I will face it with him!" Yin Guangling said.
……
At this time, Li Jing’s mental world.
"Hey, kid!"
Bi Fang sat leisurely on the fire tree with his legs crossed, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Do you want to make a scene?"
"You stinky bird...shut up!"
Li Jing knocked back a warrior with one punch and scolded through gritted teeth.
"A man with a tough mouth is never lovable!"
Bi Fangdan looked at his legs with a smile and said, "How about I help you, go on a killing spree, and kill these annoying bedbugs. This will help you three more times, and you can help me find part of my body again."
”
"I told you...shut up!"
Li Jing roared angrily, once Bi Fang is exposed to others, he will become a monster in people's eyes and will no longer have a foothold in the human race.
"Oh my god, if you don't know good people's hearts, you don't even know what risks I will face if you take action against Chao Ge."
Bi Fang's eyes flashed with a red demonic light: "Okay, forget it, you can ask if you need it in the future."
After getting along with each other for these years, he and Li Jing have almost gotten along well.
Although we still dislike each other, at least we are familiar with each other.
Moreover, when this boy worked hard for a woman, he would inevitably be in danger, so they made an agreement that he would take action three times in exchange for a part of his body in times of crisis.
"It's time for me to take action."
Yin Pobai found the right opportunity and struck a shocking palm towards Li Jing.
"Huh?" Li Jing turned around and received a palm, only to hear a 'boom' sound, the energy of the two people met and hit each other.
Buzz!
Yin PoBai's Qi Jin landed on Li Jing with a 'buzz' sound as if it had hit gold and iron. Yin PoBai was hit by Qi Jin and took two steps back. When he looked at Li Jing again, his eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
.
When he was in the early stages of traveling to heaven, his palm could shatter even a huge boulder. Is he so powerless at this moment?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Old man!"
Li Jing sneered, looked up at Yin Pobai, raised his hand and brushed the wrinkled clothes on his chest, full of provocation.
Is this the power of the divine realm? Fortunately, fortunately, I have mastered the Vajra Indestructible Boy Skill taught to me by my master... Li Jing's heart was far from as calm as his face.
After practicing this skill to its full potential, he will be made of copper and iron, invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire, and extremely powerful. He has saved his life countless times over the years.
It is also because it took some time to practice this and his bones are poor, so he still looks like an extraordinary person.
"You..." Yin's dilapidated child shrank, his eyes filled with anger.
That move is not very harmful but extremely insulting!
But at this moment, rays of escaping light lit up, and people in black bird costumes flew in and were scattered around.
"Xuanniao Division?!"
Yin Pobai saw the person coming and hummed: "You guys came just in time. He is from your Xuandiao Division, but he broke out in the Yin Mansion, hurting people and killing people. Take him down quickly."
Li Jing looked at all this with cold eyes and said nothing.
To be honest, he has been really disgusting with the princes and nobles of Dashang over the years.
These guys rely on the glory of their ancestors, regard themselves as noble, and treat the common people as lowly, let alone slaves, they don't even treat the common people as human beings... He has seen too many of these disgusting things.
If it weren't for Yin Guangling, he would have left long ago.
His love for Yin Guangling can be seen day and night, and this time he is determined to see Yin Guangling.
If Yin Guangling is willing to go with him, then even if Chaoge is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den today, he will take him away no matter what.
"This...is!"
A group of people from the Black Bird Division looked at Li Jing and hesitated for a moment, then said: "Master Li, don't blame the brothers."
After saying this, I started to make secrets, and my spiritual power surged, so I had to take action.
Li Jing said "hmm" and prepared to break out of the encirclement to find someone from another direction...
"Wait a minute!"
At this moment a voice sounded.
Everyone turned around and saw four people walking from the street below. The leader was Zishou.
Behind him are Huang Feihu, Huang Feiluan and Yin Guangling.
"Brother Li, long time no see. How are you?"
Zi Shou looked up with a smile on his face.
"Xiaoyu?"
Li Jing was startled and remembered the little brother who asked all kinds of questions when he was on a mission.
Suddenly he saw a person and said happily: "Guang Ling?"
Zi Shou looked at Yin PoBai and said with a smile: "Old General Yin, what a big battle today!"
"The third...the third prince?"
Yin Pobai was shocked when he saw Zi Shou and hurriedly stood on the ground and saluted.
"What happened today..."
Zi Shou said: "I think we can just forget it!"
"But Your Highness, Li Jing went on a rampage and killed people in our Yin Mansion..." Yin Pobai was a little unwilling.
"General Yin, whether it is the Yin family or the Xuandiao Division, if there is a conflict, just find someone to resolve it."
Zi Shou looked at Yin Pobai with a stern look: "Today you are openly fighting in the street and disturbing the people. Is it appropriate?"
"No...not appropriate!" Yin Pobai said dejectedly.
"This Li Jing is a friend of His Highness."
Zisheng stared at Yin Pobai: "I hope you won't embarrass him in the future."
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Yin Pobai lowered his head and a hint of evil flashed in his eyes.
"Your Highness?"
After a long time, in Huang Mansion, Li Jing and Yin Guangling stood side by side, looking at the situation in front of them in shock, still a little in disbelief.
"I didn't expect it, my cousin!"
Yin Guangling said with a proud smile.
Li Jing looked at the two of them, speechless.
Zi Shou smiled and said solemnly: "This group of aristocratic elders are becoming more and more unscrupulous and unruly. They have already become the worms of the great merchants. If these guys are not dealt with, it will be difficult to consolidate the country!"
"Indeed!" Huang Feihu nodded.
Zishou suddenly turned around and said, "Brother Li, I want to be the king. Do you want to help me?"
"I'll help, I'll help!" Yin Guangling smiled and raised his hand.
Li Jing looked at Yin Guangling, blushed, and said: "Okay!"
Of course, the reason he agreed was not entirely because of Yin Guangling. To be honest, he didn't have any good impressions of these nobles.
But,
This little brother made him feel a little different from those princes and nobles.
"Okay!" Zishou looked at these four people, this is his team.
Royal Palace!
Outside King Shang's palace, Wen Zhong came out and said, "The king has gone to bed and is back?"
Zishou said "hmm".
"Going to Ghost Valley?" Wen Zhong asked again.
Zishou looked at Wen Zhong in surprise.
Wen Zhong smiled: "Mr. Guigu is indeed a rare and strange person in the world. It seems that he not only made your cultivation improve by leaps and bounds, but also helped you find the answer."
"Not bad!" Zishou said.
Wen Zhong smiled: "What methods of governing the country did he teach you?"
"It is not difficult to govern a country. If the country is peaceful, the people will be at peace!"
Zi Shou shook his head and said: "The key is how to Cathay Pacific and how to solve the current predicament of Dashang. If we cannot solve the predicament, everything else will be in vain. Master taught me a concept."
"Idea?" Wen Zhongyi was startled and suddenly smiled.
"Teacher, I want to be the king and take over the empire of Dashang."
Zi Shou said firmly: "Big brother can't solve this crisis, and he can't bear this burden."
"Can you afford it?" Wen Zhongdao.
Zishou was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "I don't know, but I am ready, and no one can stop what I will do from now on."
In an instant, a breathtaking energy burst out from his body.
"Go in!"
The king's style has become... Wen Zhong smiled slightly: "Your father, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Uh... Zishou was stunned for a moment, why did he feel like he had been fooled?
……
Ghost Valley, under the canopy.
"The apprentice is out of the mountain, and the master is off work..."
Jade Cauldron flipped through these jade books with a smile and put them away one by one.
Finally, he solemnly placed the box decorated with a sword manual and a token under the thatched cottage.
Future winners can inherit these.
"Where else should I go for a walk next if I go home?"
Jade Cauldron was pondering, and suddenly the sound of golden bells and jade bells in the sky came. Jade Cauldron raised its head, and its expression changed slightly: "Heavenly Court?"
ps: Ahem, I forgot the time as soon as I wrote this. Everyone has been waiting for a long time, and even if there is one update every day, there are more than 4,000 people. I am really not lazy, so what, I’m going to have a meal first!
