Chapter 557: King Wugeng!
My name is Zishou, the king of Dashang, and the king of the entire human race. I never expected that today, all my important relatives would kneel down in front of me and beg me to give up the throne to a kid with a yellow mouth. Could it be that
Say, in your heart, a humble person is not as good as a child?
When all the ministers in the palace heard Wei Ziqi's words and learned that the young man sitting on the throne was actually the son of King Zhou, they were all shocked. They had never thought that King Zhou actually had a son, and that he had not cut off his descendants?
In addition, seeing so many members of the royal family kneeling down to beg King Zhou to abdicate, they even looked at each other. At this moment, they didn't know what to do.
It stands to reason that when the king suffers, the ministers should stand up and protect the king. However... this king has changed a long time ago. He is no longer the wise king he once was. Now he is just a faint king. So, in order to become Tang Sheji
, it seems to be a good choice to oust him from the throne and let his son succeed him.
The late King Chengtang could take away Xia Jie's throne in the past. Today, there is nothing wrong with King Zhou losing his throne. At least the prince succeeded to the throne. This great merchant is still a great merchant, isn't he?
"You treacherous ministers and traitors, you treacherous ministers and traitors, the lonely king is going to kill you!" At this time, King Zhou couldn't bear it anymore and cursed angrily at Wei Ziqi and others, and then struggled, trying to use his iron fist
Beat them to death.
However, he was unable to do such a thing in Haotian's hands. Now he was just a prisoner.
Looking at this very dishonest King Zhou, a golden light flashed in Haotian's eyes. Suddenly, King Zhou felt as if a big mountain was being pressed on his shoulders. It was very heavy and extremely painful. Sweat fell like rain in an instant.
.
"Be honest and let your son succeed you. At least you still have a way to survive. Otherwise, when Xiqi's army invades Chaoge, you will definitely die!" Haotian scolded King Zhou.
Upon hearing this, King Zhou's struggling movements suddenly stopped, and his whole body seemed to wake up a little.
He looked at Wu Geng, who was sitting on the throne with firm eyes, and seemed to see his former self in a trance.
Yes, this is his son, his only son now...
After realizing this, King Zhou no longer struggled, but begged Haotian: "Great Heavenly Lord, can you let go of my beloved concubine? I am willing to be locked up in the temple with her to atone for the sins of the dead."
In response to King Zhou's begging, Haotian shook his head and refused without hesitation.
Let Daji go?
What a joke!
Since ancient times, when new kings of the human race succeed to the throne, they must show favors and win the hearts of the people, so there are often amnesties for the world.
But now, with the rebellion of the princes and the destabilization of the Shang Dynasty, just amnesty for the world will not have any effect at all. Wu Geng must order the execution of Daji, the demon concubine, in order to appease the people, gain the trust of the people, and reunite some people.
Wang Qiyun, and then used this to fight against Ji Fa. How could such an important matter be abandoned because of you?
Seeing Haotian shaking his head, King Zhou's heart suddenly... died.
His beloved concubine is about to die, so what's the point of living for him?
"Your Majesty, is this child...really your son?" At this time, Daji turned to King Zhou and asked.
After hearing his beloved concubine's question, King Zhou gritted his teeth and nodded.
Daji felt cold in her heart and said, "When did you have the child?"
"That's...after the time when Yin Jiao and Yin Hong were rescued by Jiang Ziya." King Zhou said in a low voice.
After receiving the answer, Daji closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The man she loved so much actually hid the fact that she had a child with another woman, and he kept hiding it from me. What was this? Are you afraid that I would kill him?
"Okay, don't talk about your bad things here." Haotian didn't want to waste time listening to them talk about scumbag men and women, so he scolded them.
Then, his eyes moved to the ministers of the Shang Dynasty standing on the left and right sides. In an instant, a burst of extremely dazzling divine light bloomed from their bodies. In the void behind him, a majestic Dharma form appeared. The Dharma form was dressed in the robe of the Emperor of Heaven and wore ten
The two crowns stood proudly and majestic, almost instantly frightening the ministers in the palace.
Then, Haotian said: "I am the Jade Emperor who personally conferred the title of Heavenly Lord from the Taoist ancestors and prime minister of the prehistoric times. I am here today to help you and others protect Chengtang's foundation! King Zhou has no way, and he is far away in Xia
Above Jie, if he continues to reign, the Great Shang Dynasty will surely perish. Therefore, I wish to make his son Wu Geng the king, and order King Zhou to abdicate the throne to Wu Geng in accordance with the ancient rites of the human race. Do you agree or not?
?”
"Boom~" After saying this, an invisible coercion enveloped all the ministers in the palace. In an instant, they all knelt down uncontrollably.
Feeling the extremely terrifying pressure for them, they looked at the majestic Dharma statue behind Haotian in the void. Finally, they looked at King Zhou and Wu Geng who was already sitting on the throne, as well as the kneeling figure.
Wei Ziqi, who begged King Zhou to abdicate, asked other royal family members, but the officials were hesitant.
But in the end, several ministers still made a statement. They lowered their heads and whispered: "The Great Heavenly Lord's words are reasonable. I have the courage to ask the king to abdicate and let the third prince succeed to the throne."
As ministers expressed their stance, more and more ministers gradually asked King Zhou to abdicate.
Of course, there were also several ministers who were loyal to King Zhou who objected and scolded Haotian, as the Jade Emperor of Heaven, for actually taking care of their human affairs. Haotian showed no mercy to these ministers and killed them all on the spot.
kill.
In this way, until the end of the battle, only the ministers who agreed that Wu Geng should be the new king of Dashang were left in the whole hall.
Seeing this, King Zhou closed his eyes and sighed in his heart. He knew that... the situation was over. However, he was not defeated by Ji Fa, but his son took away the throne first. This was something he had never thought of before.
I don't know if this can save Dashang.
Thinking about it, King Zhou turned his head and looked at Daji beside him, his eyes full of tenderness, and he had silently made a decision in his heart.
…
The next day, a news spread from Chaoge City to various places.
Prince Shou deeply felt that his virtue was not worthy of the throne and that he was unworthy of the great trust of his ancestors. He decided to abdicate the throne to his third son Wu Geng. Wu Geng accepted his father's abdication and officially ascended the throne yesterday. He also decreed that as Queen Jiang, Dong
Bohou and Nanbohou rehabilitated their crimes and took the demon concubine Daji to the vegetable market. Three days later, they beheaded her in public.
Wu Geng also led his ministers to Xuanyuan Temple to offer incense in the name of a direct descendant of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, and to report to the Three Emperors that his successor would be crowned king.
In addition, Wu Geng also decreed to build temples for all the innocent creatures who died tragically at the hands of King Zhou and Daji, and imprisoned King Zhou in the temple to repent to the souls of the dead all day long.
At this time, the army and the people in Chaoge City were united, and almost everyone expressed loyalty to the new king and threatened to protect the king to the death, defend Dashang, and never let the Xiqi rebels go further!
As the news spread, the human race was shocked!
