Yuanshi Tianzun noticed that the heavenly star had not yet fallen, and was dimming and flashing. He suddenly felt that something was wrong, and quickly made calculations with his fingers!
"This Emperor Yi should have died, why did Hou Tu extend his life by three months?"
After Yuanshi Tianzun counted with his fingers, he understood the reason why the Emperor's star flickered.
The Emperor Star represents the lifespan of the Human King, and the death of the Human King can be detected through the Emperor Star!
"Weird!"
There was confusion on Yuanshi Tianzun's face, and he said in confusion:
"According to the predetermined number, Zi Xin clearly has three sons, but now Zi Xin doesn't have any. Is this a trick by Tong Tian?"
What surprised Yuanshi Tianzun the most was the issue of Zi Xin’s heirs. According to the predetermined number, Zi Xin should have had three sons, but now Zi Xin didn’t have any. This made Yuan Shi Tianzun puzzled!
You must know that Zi Xin’s first two sons were the ones he needed to teach him, but now that Zi Xin has no children, something is obviously wrong!
"Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, Taiyi, come quickly!"
Yuanshi Tianzun issued a decree and summoned his three disciples!
After being summoned by Yuanshi Tianzun, Guangchengzi, Chi Jingzheng, and Taiyi Zhenren rushed to Yuxu Palace from their respective monasteries. The three of them bowed and saluted:
"Meet the Master!"
The three brothers, Guangchengzi, although they don’t know why Yuanshi Tianzun summoned them.
However, they understood that Yuanshi Tianzun would not summon him without reason, he must have something to tell him!
Yuanshi Tianzun turned his attention to Master Taiyi, waved his Taoist robe, and the spiritual beads appeared in front of Master Taiyi, and then said:
"Taiyi, this object is called Lingzhu. It is a pearl carried by Nuwa. It has absorbed Nuwa's saintly charm and has given birth to spiritual wisdom.
Yin Shiniang, the wife of Li Jing in Chentangguan, was pregnant for three years and six months, and you put her into her belly!
After it is born, name it Nezha, and it will be your disciple, the one who will answer the calamity for you!"
The Lingzhu and Master Taiyi have a master-disciple relationship. Yuanshi Tianzun has known about it for a long time, so he gave the Lingzhu to Master Taiyi!
Master Taiyi took the spiritual bead, bowed to Yuanshi Tianzun, and said:
"Taiyi will obey Master's decree!"
Yuanshi Tianzun didn't say much, but signaled to Master Taiyi that he could leave!
Both Guangchengzi and Chi Jingzi looked happy when they saw that Taiyi Zhenren had someone to answer the calamity. They glanced at Yuanshi Tianzun quietly, and then withdrew their gaze!
"well!"
Yuanshi Tianzun didn't know what they were thinking. He sighed and said:
"Guangchengzi, Chijie, and Shouzi Xin were supposed to have three sons, and two of them are the ones who deserve the disaster for you two.
But now something has changed, Zi Xin has no children!"
Yuanshi Tianzun felt that there was something wrong with the God's Measurement Tribulation. It was difficult to handle this God's Measurement Tribulation!
When Yuanshi Tianzun said this, Guangchengzi and Chi Jingjie immediately panicked and asked quickly:
"Master, what should I do?"
Now that the Conferred God Tribulation is getting closer and closer, even Guangchengzi and Chi Jingjing realize that they need to cope with the calamity.
So the person who takes over the disaster for them is very important to them!
Guangchengzi and Chi Jingjie need disciples and people to cope with the disaster for them, otherwise, they will have to cope with the disaster themselves!
Since the dawn of time, the calamity has been extremely ferocious, but neither of them thought that with their little cultivation, they could break through the calamity!
Seeing that his two disciples were panicking, Yuanshi Tianzun quickly comforted him and said:
"Don't panic!"
After Yuanshi Tianzun comforted Guangchengzi and Chi Jingjing, he sent a message to the underworld, saying:
"Junior Sister Houtu, the human clan Zi Xin was supposed to have three sons, why didn't any of them come into the world?"
Hou Tu is the Lord of the Underworld, the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and is in charge of the Book of Life and Death and the Qianqiu Reincarnation Pen.
Now that the human race's son Xin has no son, Yuanshi Tianzun naturally wants to ask Hou Tu what's going on!
Houtu from the underworld had long known that Yuanshi Tianzun would ask about this matter, and he had already thought of an excuse, so he said:
"Senior Brother Yuanshi, Xiaobai is also to blame for this.
Back when the human race was still divided into the southeast and the southeast, I lent the Life and Death Book and the Qianqiu Reincarnation Pen to Xiaobai to play with!
When Xiaobai killed the great Luo Jinxian of the southern human race, he unintentionally left a little ink mark on the life and death book. As the life and death book gradually evolved, this ink mark happened to be related to Dashang!"
Anyway, Hou Tu gave the answer to Yuan Shi Tian Zun. As for whether Yuan Shi Tian Zun believed it or not, that was not something Hou Tu should consider!
Hou Tu was not afraid that Yuanshi Tianzun would notice Zi Xin. After all, Zi Xin and the human race had the same ancestry.
Moreover, Hou Tu also left a method on Zi Xin. With Yuan Shi Tianzun’s little cultivation, it was not enough to find out Zi Xin’s origin!
After Hou Tu gave his answer, Yuanshi Tianzun pinched his fingers and calculated. He had indeed seen the original ancestor Xiong Xiaobai holding the Qianqiu Reincarnation Pen and scribbling on the life and death book, as well as the scene of the fall of the great Luo Jinxian of the southern human race!
Yuanshi Tianzun was speechless at this moment. This bear did not do many good things every day, but only did bad things every day.
At first, this bear was painted happily on the life and death book, but now it has affected Dashang and Chanjiao. This bear is really a trap!
After Yuanshi Tianzun learned everything, he asked again:
"Junior Sister Houtu, I wonder how much this bit of ink can affect Dashang?"
Yuanshi Tianzun only hopes that the impact will not be too great. If a big change occurs, he will not be able to handle it!
Seeing that Yuanshi Tianzun had been deceived, Hou Tu said:
"Originally, this was enough to devastate Dashang, but I have minimized the impact, leaving Zi Xin without a son!
Fortunately, Zixin is the last generation of Shang kings, so being childless has little impact, otherwise Xiaobai might still be infected with karma!
As for Emperor Yi’s three-month lifespan, it can be regarded as a little compensation from Xiaobai and I to Zi Xin!”
Hou Tu plays with Zu Xiong Xiaobai every day, and has learned 70% to 80% of Zu Xiong Xiaobai's ability to fool people, and has already made everything up!
Yuanshi Tianzun was relieved when he heard that Zixin had no children!
As Hou Tu said, Zi Xin was the last Shang king of the Great Shang Dynasty. Zi Xin’s lack of children would not change much for the Great Shang Dynasty!
"Junior Sister Houtu, the Book of Life and Death, and the Qianqiu Reincarnation Pen are related to the human race. Junior Sister Houtu must keep the Book of Life and Death well and don't give it to Zu Xiong for fun again!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yuanshi Tianzun kindly reminded Hou Tu that the Fengshen Calamity Tribulation is coming. If there is a problem with Hou Tu's life and death book, it will also have a big impact on the Calamity Tribulation.
!
"Um!"
Hou Tu hummed indifferently, it was all perfunctory!
The book of life and death belongs to her. She can play with it to whomever she wants. What does Guan Yuanshi Tianzun have to do with it?
Although Yuanshi Tianzun noticed Hou Tu's perfunctory behavior, he was not angry. Instead, he said kindly:
"Junior Sister Houtu, the two former sons of Zi Xin are destined to teach me to explain, and they are the ones who deserve the fate of my teaching!
Now that these two sons have not been born into the world, their true spirits must still be in the underworld, can Junior Sister Houtu hand them over to Senior Brother?"
Zi Xin’s son has not yet come into the world, so the true spirit of the Yuan Shen must be in the hands of Hou Tu, so Yuan Shi Tianzun wants to get him!m
"Can!"
As Hou Tu's words fell, the space trembled, and two divine lights broke through the void from the underworld, turning into two true souls of the soul and appearing in Yuxu Palace!
Yuanshi Tianzun looked at the two true souls of Yuanshen, his eyebrows completely stretched, and then said:
"Junior Sister Houtu, the Conferred God Tribulation is coming, Nuwa will also be released from seclusion, and the demon clan will inevitably make a comeback. I wonder what the Wu clan's plan is?"
Everyone knows that Nuwa is about to leave seclusion!
With Nuwa's temperament, she suffered such a big loss before, and now she must make a big move to get out of seclusion!
That’s why Yuanshi Tianzun thought about exploring Hou Tu’s tone!
"I think Senior Brother Yuanshi doesn't want the human race to be controlled by Nuwa again, right?
Xiaobai, you can share the human race with us. If Nuwa controls the human race, we may not have our incense!"
Hou Tu's tone was very strict, and not only did Yuan Shi Tianzun not get to know anything about it.
Today's human race is shared by everyone. Obviously, it is impossible for her to worry about a witch behind her!
"Junior Sister Houtu is right!"
After Yuanshi Tianzun finished speaking, he stopped transmitting messages!
Yuanshi Tianzun looked at the two true souls of Yuanshen and turned them into two babies with a wave of his sleeves!
Yuanshi Tianzun waved his robe again, and these two babies appeared in front of Guangchengzi and Chi Jingzhi!
"Guangchengzi and Chijie, these two are supposed to be the sons of Zixin, but there are some anomalies. I will leave these two to your guidance!"
After Yuanshi Tianzun finished speaking, he motioned to Guangchengzi, Chi Jingzi, to retreat!
After Guangchengzi bowed to Chi Jingjing, he took his disciples back to the dojo!
…
In the three months that Emperor Yi only had left, he spent one month teaching Zi Xin how to be a king. For one month, Emperor Yi put aside his responsibilities as the King of Shang and enjoyed a shared family relationship!
In the last month, Emperor Yi, Bigan, and Zixuyu ignored the affairs of the Shang Dynasty. They either went out hunting or drank and talked together!
This March, Di Yi has no regrets!
When March comes, Emperor Yi returns to heaven!
Great Shang and the whole country are in great sorrow, and everyone in Yindu wears sackcloth and wears filial piety!
According to the ancestral laws of the Great Shang Dynasty, Zi Xin should have served Emperor Yi for three years before he could succeed to the throne!
However, due to Emperor Yi's death, Zi Xin only needs to be a filial piety for one year!
Emperor Yi knew very well that the Great Shang Dynasty was in dire straits right now. If the Yin capital was without a king for three years, the eight hundred princes would definitely be in chaos!
So when Emperor Yi died, he specifically ordered Zi Xin to only wear mourning for one year!
During Zi Xin's one year of mourning, the affairs of the Great Shang State were handled by Bigan, Zixu Yu, and Wen ** together!
One year after Dai Xiao, Zi Xin ascended the throne and was named Emperor Xin!
After Emperor Xin came to power, he changed the name of Yindu to Chaoge. In addition, he gave up the title of King of Shang and became known as King Dixin!
The title of Human King. Although the kings of the Great Shang Dynasty were Human Kings, they rarely used this title. They usually regarded themselves as Shang Kings!
After all, the responsibility of the human king is too great, and they are afraid that they cannot bear it!
After Emperor Xin came to power, he took drastic measures to rectify the affairs of the court!
The first is to develop the national strength of the Great Shang Dynasty, the second is to train troops in the mountains, and the third is to forge a large-scale military war!
Di Xin's three actions are all to prepare for war!
This made the princes, as well as Dongyi and Xirong feel the pressure!
However, for a while, the national power of Dashang was not so easy to develop, so Emperor Xin focused on the four major princes and tried to beat them!
Emperor Xin issued four royal orders to the four great princes, ordering the four great princes to come and pay homage to him!
The four princes came together to Chaoge to meet Emperor Xin!
Dongbohou Jiang Hengchu looked at Emperor Xin on the throne and saw that he was not happy or angry, so he asked:
"Your Majesty, why are you summoning us?"
Jiang Hengchu felt that Emperor Xin had hidden imperial qualities, and he understood that Dashang was about to change!
"Dong Bohou, you are a relative of a great businessman, so why should you be so polite!"
After Di Xin finished speaking, he motioned for Jiang Hengchu to take a seat!
In addition to Jiang Hengchu, Ji Chang was also a relative of the Great Shang, but Emperor Xin did not give Ji Chang a seat!
After Emperor Xin gave Jiang Hengchu a seat, he said:
"The reason why I summoned the four major princes this time is because there is some turmoil in Dongyi. The great merchants are preparing for war and they still lack some war resources!
We need the four major princes to discuss with the eight hundred princes below!"
Emperor Xin's idea was very simple, let the four major princes and eight hundred small princes provide food, grass, war, etc., thereby increasing the national power of Dashang!
When they heard that they were going to provide war funds, the faces of the four major princes turned bad.
As soon as Emperor Xin came to power, he asked them to pay tribute and provide war supplies. He was clearly trying to beat them!
Nanbohou E Chongyu bit the bullet and said:
"Your Majesty, we vassal states have been greatly affected by natural disasters in recent years, and it is really difficult to provide war funds for Chao Ge!"
After all the hard work, Chaoge's national power was now greatly reduced. Naturally, Nanbohou E Chongyu was unwilling to sacrifice his own national power to support Chaoge!
You must know that the weaker Chaoge's national power is, the less deterrent it will be to these vassal states, and thus the more peaceful their lives will be!
Emperor Xin glared at Nanbohou E Chongyu and said:
"Nan Bohou, I know very well what is going on in your vassal kingdoms!"
There are natural disasters in the princely states, but the natural disasters are not serious.
Di Xin knew very well what Nan Bohou was thinking!
After Emperor Xin scolded Nanbohou E Chongyu, he directly looked at Dongbohou Jiang Hengchu and said:
"Dong Bohou, as a relative of the great merchant and the father of the queen, you shouldn't want to disgrace the queen, right?"
Jiang Hengchu is the leader of the four major princes and is responsible for the two hundred princes of Donglu!
So Di Xin decided to operate on Jiang Hengchu first. After all, Jiang Hengchu was his father-in-law, so it was estimated that the operation would be easier!
Jiang Hengchu looked at Di Xin on the throne. He knew that he had been tricked by Emperor Yi. Emperor Yi married him because he clearly wanted to tie himself to Di Xin!
When Jiang Hengchu thought that Di Xin was his virtuous son-in-law and his daughter was the queen of Dashang, he said helplessly:
"Your Majesty, our Duke of Donghuai is willing to provide Chaoge with some war supplies and military supplies. As for the two hundred princes of Donglu, I cannot make a decision for them!"
Although Dongbohou Jiang Hengchu is the leader of the two hundred princes of Donglu, he cannot guarantee that all the two hundred princes of Donglu will agree to such a major event!
"I am very pleased with Dong Bohou's move. He is worthy of being the father of the queen!"
Emperor Xin was overjoyed when he saw Dongbohou Jiang Hengchu's cooperation, and then said:
"As for the two hundred princes of Donglu, just give them if they are willing to do so. Since they do not want to be ministers of the Great Shang, I will not force you to do so!"
When Di Xin spoke, the cruel look in his eyes was not concealed at all!
At this moment, the four major princes all understood that Emperor Xin was not Emperor Yi, and this Emperor Xin was not easy to deal with!
After noticing the cruelty in Emperor Xin's eyes, Northern Bohou Chonghou Hu quickly bowed and saluted:
"I, Chonghou Hu, am a minister of the Great Shang Dynasty. I am willing to lead the Chonghou Kingdom in the north to provide military supplies and war supplies for Chaoge, pay tribute every year, and pass on the king's will to the two hundred princes in the north!"
Chonghouhu understood that if Emperor Xin was unhappy, it might be the princes instead of Dongyi who were preparing the Shang army for war!
The Northern Chonghou Kingdom is different from the other three vassal states. The ancestor of Chonghou Hu was once one of the three important ministers of Shang King Wuding, assisting Shang King Wuding to revitalize the great Shang Dynasty!
The ancestors of Chonghou Hu have been stationed in Beichong for generations, in order to defend the northern Shang Dynasty and supervise the remaining tribes of the former Xia Dynasty.
It's just that the Chong tribe has been stationed in the north all year round, so the relationship with Dashang has gradually faded!
Now Emperor Xin has the style of Shang King Wu Ding and Cheng Tang, so Chonghou Hu wants to regain the friendship between the Northern Chonghou Kingdom and the great merchants!
