Chapter 438 The Human Rights Act

Daji, whose original surname is Ji and whose name is Da, has a Suo people, which is the remnants of the former Kunwu clan. At the same time, Daji is also the daughter of the current leader of the Kunwu clan and has a contemporary Sioux saint.

With the joint promotion of the Su clan elders and Xibo Hou Jichang, Daji was tributed to the Shang King Emperor Xin as a slave, with the daughter of Xibo Hou Suhu, along with the hundreds of beauties, gold, silver, treasures, cattle, sheep and horses.

Well, it is indeed a slave, although this slave is a beautiful woman.

In fact, this is a tradition in slave society. The population of the defeated country who paid tribute to the victorious country was demoted to slaves, regardless of their previous identity.

However, neither Ji Chang nor the elders of the Su clan expected that Di Xin now seemed to have no desire to possess beauty. All that was left was a bit envy, a little jealousy, and a little bit of inexplicable hatred. In short, it was a very complicated emotion.

With the harem that disrupted Emperor Xin and thus achieved the great dream of assisting the Su tribe in realizing the great dream of rebelling against Shang and restoring Xia, Daji followed his fake father Hou Suhu in Jizhou and slept on the road and finally arrived at Chaoge, the capital of the Shang Dynasty.

Perhaps Su Hu bribed Fei Zhong and You Hun, two ministers of Emperor Xin, played a role, or perhaps Ji Chang, the wise marquis, had a good statement in front of Prime Minister Shang Rong, Ya Bi Gan and others, or perhaps Emperor Xin felt that the items Su Hu paid were sincere. In short, the original major rebellion case, with the intentional or unintentional joint efforts of various forces, was just a slash of the slander, and the emperor pardoned Su Hu's crimes, which made him return to Jizhou to reflect, which was considered to be over.

However, there is also a little unsatisfactory, that is, since entering the palace, this first beauty of the Sioux, the saint slave Daji, has not gained any appreciation from Emperor Xin, and has not even been attracted by Emperor Xin at all.

Although Daji failed to cause any storm in Chaoge, as the saying goes, no matter who this earth leaves, will it still turn around!

In this prehistoric world, the time did not stop turning because Daji failed to disrupt the Shang Dynasty's harem.

By the way, in the previous period, Emperor Xin originally planned to let Xibo Marquis Jichang and Jizhou Hou Suhu fight with Jizhou Hou to consume the strength of the Western Zhou tribe. Unexpectedly, Jichang could persuade Jizhou Hou Suhu to surrender with a letter. This time, not only failed to weaken Xibo Marquis, but also gave Jichang the reputation of a virtuous marquis.

Di Xin was naturally unwilling to accept that a great skill ended in such a result.

However, Ji Chang also knew that since his father Ji Li, the Shang royal family had always been afraid of the Western Zhou Dynasty and had never relaxed their vigilance against the Western Zhou Dynasty. For fear that the rebellion conspiracy would be captured by Emperor Xin, Ji Chang became more cautious in his actions, and even refused to commit a little mistake lightly. This made Emperor Xin, who had always been deliberately looking for trouble, really unable to find an excuse for an attack.

Since I couldn't find trouble for my uncle Ji Chang, Emperor Xin was fortunate to devote all his energy to domestic affairs.

After several years of hard work, although the Shang Dynasty achieved restorative development, it was even more difficult to further develop the Shang Dynasty.

As the second slave dynasty, the Shang Dynasty had ruled Jiuzhou for more than 500 years.

If we count the more than 500 years of the first slave dynasty, the Xia Dynasty, the entire slave society has lasted for more than a thousand years and gradually entered the dusk stage.

Specifically, the life of the slave owner class is becoming increasingly corrupt. In order to maintain a life of extravagance and debauchery, the slave owner class has to increase its exploitation of the slave class.

Life is miserable, and the resistance of the slave class occurs from time to time.

The slaves actually dared to question the dictatorship of the slave owner class, which made the slave owners very angry. So naturally, the slave owners raised their butcher knives at the slave doors.

But all the slaves were killed, who would farm and work for the slave owners?

Therefore, the slave owners had to use some extraordinary means to find a new group of slaves for themselves. The source of the new slaves was mostly civilians and people from other tribes. However, for a long time, who would be willing to be slaves? Therefore, for granted, bloody conflicts broke out halfway through.

Of course, this bloody conflict may break out between the two tribes, or between the slave owners and civilians of the tribe.

This turbulent situation has never stopped since the emergence of the slave society. The only difference is that the conflict today has become increasingly serious.

He claimed to be a wise king of the generation, and had a bird and fish soup. Since the day he ascended the throne, Emperor Xin has been thinking hard about how to ease or even eliminate this class turmoil.

Objectively speaking, Di Xin is also a civil and military genius. Now that he has been determined to do something, it has not been long before Emperor Xin has figured out a seemingly feasible method, which is to reform.

Well, what we are talking about here is reform and reform from time to time.

Specifically, it is to amend the law. The new law stipulates that slave owners are not allowed to kill slaves at will. Violators will be severely punished, and those with serious circumstances will even suffer from prison.

Moreover, the new law also stipulates the intensity of work with slaves, such as working for no more than eight hours a day (well, not hours), and having two days off every month, etc.

All in all, this is a new law aimed at protecting the right of slaves to survive.

However, this new law was unanimously opposed by all the civil and military officials of the court. The reason is very simple, because these ministers were all slave owners, and they were big slave owners.

Mencius’s children’s shoes said, “It’s not difficult to govern, and you won’t offend the giant house.” (Mencius? Li Lou Shang)

As for the reason, Mencius also said, "What a huge family admires is that a country admires it; what a country admires it is that the world admires it."

Mencius’s general idea is that it is not difficult to be a monarch (or an official). Just protect the interests of the big landlords and the big bourgeoisie (well, including the big slave-owner class). Because these big landlords and big bourgeoisie represent public opinion orientation and social trends.

It is obvious that Emperor Xin's move to amend the constitution did not protect the interests of these large slave owners, but instead offended these "giant rooms".

Therefore, as soon as Emperor Xin's constitutional amendment plan was proposed, it was unanimously opposed by the ministers. Except for the two, they were Emperor Xin's favorite ministers, Fei Zhong and Youhun.

The reason why these two brothers did not object is because these two are the lowest-ranking slaves in society.

In fact, Yi Yin, the first minister of Shang Tang, was also a slave, but he was still of great achievements and famous throughout the ages.

Although the abilities of Fei Zhong and You Hun are not bad, they are really different from Yi Yin.

Moreover, these two brothers have one problem, that is, they are greedy for money.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been scared since I was a child, or because these two brothers are so naturally. In short, these two people have a very serious obsession with wealth.

In fact, we can't blame these two brothers for being greedy for money. From ancient times to the present, there have been hundreds of millions of officials in all dynasties, but the number of honest officials is only a handful.

As the saying goes, seeking officials from thousands of miles away is just for wealth!

Those who are officials are mostly greedy! Those who are not greedy for money have become rare animals, and may even be regarded as the mainstream of gray and are rejected and suppressed.

Therefore, we can say very responsibly that the number of so-called honest officials is definitely smaller than that of the brothels. Even if those who nominally claim to be honest officials, the total number of the so-called honest officials may not necessarily be larger than that of the honest officials.

Returning to the main story, Emperor Xin wanted to establish a new law, but was unanimously opposed by all the civil and military officials, including all loyal and treacherous ministers. Without any plans, Emperor Xin had to postpone the implementation of the new law.

In a state of depression, after Emperor Xin dispersed his dynasty, he summoned the two loyal ministers Fei Zhong who supported him, and Youhun came to discuss countermeasures.

The two of them muttered for a while, and finally Fei Zhong took the lead in speaking, "Or why we recruit all the princes from all directions and everyone will hold a meeting to study it? Even if we still cannot pass the new policy in the end, we can take this opportunity to distinguish which princes are loyal to Your Majesty and which princes have different ambitions."

To test the loyalty of the princes to themselves? Well, this seems to be very necessary!

But, it seems that there is no need to monitor the face of Ji Chang, right? Although he is his own cheap uncle, his grandfather Tai Ding (Wen Ding) killed Ji Chang's father Ji Li! The Ji Chang family has never produced a good person for generations! They are born with a group of rebels!

Shouldn’t we take this opportunity to kill Ji Chang and kill the crisis in the cradle?

With a conspiracy in his mind, Emperor Xin's will was quickly sent to all directions and summoned eight hundred princes from four towns to the capital.

When the emperor summoned the princes from all directions, they were confident that they dared not be negligent. Even the Xibo Hou Jichang, who was determined to rebel, did not dare to be disrespectful to Emperor Xin at all under the conditions that had not been fully prepared. After the emperor briefly explained the various affairs of Xiqi, he led his troops to leave Xiqi and headed straight for Chaoge.

When I arrived at Yanshan Mountain, I suddenly encountered heavy rain, thunder and lightning, and the thunder and thunder sounded, the mountains and rivers were shaking, and Huayue collapsed.

This Xibo Marquis was very good at primitively. Seeing this, he started a lesson and it seemed that a star of general appeared. So after the rain stopped, he hurriedly sent his subordinates to find the star of general.

"Brothers, who do you know what a star is? Isn't it just a star with a very general?" Ji Chang's generals looked at each other, not sure why, so after they walked more than a hundred feet away, they gathered in a place and whispered.

"Can it be a general? It's a general among the orangutans!" One of the guards who seemed to have a wide range of knowledge said in a low voice.

"Well, yes! It must be Jiang Xing! Let's set off now, go find Jiang Xing!" Another guard immediately echoed.

So, the generals under Ji Chang scattered out in a daze to find the generals among the orangutans.

After searching all over the mountains for a while, several guards suddenly heard the cry of the baby.

Following the sound, he came to an ancient tomb, but several people were seeing the back of a fairy girl, as if she was holding a baby, and she set up a golden light to break through the air. In a flash, it turned into a small spot of light, and it disappeared completely in the sky after a moment.

"Fairy descends to earth!" As a working crowd and ordinary mortals, the soldiers had never seen such a magical method that flew on land, so they hurriedly knelt on the ground, called the fairy, and made a bow.

He even kowtowed dozens of times until the fragrance of the fairy had already dissipated. The generals stood up with a little excitement and continued to look for the legendary general orangutan.

After searching for a while, there was still nothing to find. In desperation, the generals had to return one after another.

Before he found the star of the general, Ji Chang felt sad. When he heard that a fairy was passing by, he seemed to be holding a child, Ji Chang felt a stern in his heart, and he quickly took out the copper coins and carefully calculated the robbery, but it turned out to be hazy and nothing was calculated.

"Oh! What a good general, but a certain family missed it. What a pity!" He put away the copper coins with a loss. Ji Chang led the crowd to stand up with great worries and continued to rush towards Chaoge.

After walking for nearly twenty miles, I met a young Taoist priest with a unique appearance and a fairy-like Taoist priest.

Seeing that this man had a very charlatan style, Ji Chang hurriedly stepped forward to salute. After some politeness, Ji Chang realized that this man was Yun Zhongzi, a Qi Refining Scholar in Yuzhu Cave, Zhongnan Mountain.

But it turned out that Yun Zhongzi was the last disciple of Guan Zong who was accepted by Yuanshi Tianzun. This time he went down the mountain, he was ordered by his master to go down the mountain and came to look for the general star.

After talking to Ji Chang for a while, discussing the method for a while, both of them felt that the other party seemed very knowledgeable.

On the other hand, Yun Zhongzi had a profound Taoist teachings, while Ji Chang was mysterious in the Yi principles. After chatting with each other for a while, neither of them made each other faint, so they felt like they met a confidant too late.

However, now the two of them are not thinking about talking about the mountains, so they havetily concluded their discussion, and admire each other for a few words before turning to the topic.

"Just just now, the thunder sounded, and the star of the general appeared. I came thousands of miles away to search for the star of the general. I wonder if the wise man can recommend the star of the general and the star of the general with me?" Yun Zhongzi's sage was the first to speak and turn to the topic.

"Uh, I want to ask you, let's ask me first?" Ji Chang felt a little confused again and muttered to himself.

However, Ji Chang was not too lazy to neglect this seemingly mysterious charlatan, so he quickly said that the words of his subordinates who saw the fairy were used to repeat them to Yun Zhongzi.

"A fairy appeared? He took away the baby who was probably Jiang Xing, who seemed to have a relationship with him as a master and disciple?" Yun Zhongzi was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly calculated with his fingers for a while, but it turned out to be in chaos and nothing was calculated.

In desperation, Yun Zhongzi was smart, so he listed these possible situations one by one, trying to select possible suspects through screening methods.

There were fifteen old men under the sect of the Ancestral Sect to which Yuanshi Tianzun, but there was no woman saying that! There was only one Master Xuandu Bachelor, and there was no woman.

Under the third uncle, uh, this is it, I don’t know which disciples they all have!

However, I heard from several senior brothers that there was a little loli wearing a red vest who seemed to be a disciple of the third uncle, but it seemed to be incompatible with the so-called fairy that Ji Chang mentioned!

Could it be the disciple of the Western Sect? Or, the mysterious and ethereal Nvwa Niangniang?

After thinking for a while, Yun Zhongzi didn't understand it, so he said goodbye to Xibo Hou Jichang with a mist and went to Kongtong Mountain Yuxu Palace to find his teacher Yuanshi Tianzun to ask for countermeasures.

The sage in Yun Zhongzi left, and the Xibo Hou Jichang immediately led the crowd to stand up and continued on his way.

"I didn't find the star?" After Yuan Shi's fake lady heard Yun Zhongzi's report, she was also surprised in her heart.

This was a result I had just calculated and immediately ordered Yun Zhongzi to rush over. Unexpectedly, he was one step too late!

In this case, wouldn’t that mean that the backstage of the man who took away the general star is stronger than his own efforts?

After reading all the known Hunyuan saints in their hearts, Yuanshi Tianzun had no idea.
