It is said that this was the second time that Emperor Xin killed the statue of Nuwa with his sword. The first time was in Jiang Hengchu's Donghuai Kingdom.
After Emperor Xin killed the statue of Nuwa with his sword, Bigan and Zixuyu, as the chief civil servants of the Great Shang Dynasty, immediately understood Emperor Xin's next move.
Bigan and Zixuyu also threw away the incense in their hands, one step ahead of Emperor Xin, and shouted at the civil and military ministers:
"As officials of the Great Shang Dynasty, how can you worship the saints of the demon tribe and why not quickly throw away the incense in your hands!"
Bigan and Zixuyu watched Di Xin grow up and knew Di Xin's violent temper.
Emperor Xin's tough methods may anger other ministers who worship Nuwa, causing harm to their lives!
That's why Bigan and Zixu Yu took the risk of offending Emperor Xin and scolded the civil and military ministers, just to protect these ministers and prevent them from dying under Emperor Xin's wrath!
Bigan and Zixuyu scolded, and other civil and military ministers also quickly threw the incense sticks in their hands to the ground and trampled them in pieces!
Di Xin just glared at Bigan and Zixu Yu's behavior and didn't say much.
If it were anyone else, Di Xin would have killed them with one sword. Seeing that Bigan and Zixuyu were his uncles, he didn't say anything more!
Emperor Xin held the Xuanyuan Sword, glanced at the ministers and said:
"It is my king's decree that no one in Dashang is allowed to worship the demonic saint Nuwa. Anyone who worships the demonic saint, no matter who he is, will be severely punished!
Officials of the Great Shang Dynasty who worship the monster saint Nuwa will be removed from their positions, killed without mercy, and their family members will be demoted as slaves!
The common people and those who worship the monster saints will have their whole families reduced to slaves!"
As long as Nuwa extended her claws, Di Xin would dare to chop her off as long as she wanted!
Emperor Xin did not believe that there were still people in Dashang who dared to worship Nuwa!
"promise!"
The civil and military ministers of the Great Shang Dynasty responded in unison. They were also very afraid of Di Xin's order!
They really want to go back now and smash the statues of Nuwa in their respective homes!
The word slave is no different from an animal among the great merchants and vassal states.
The use of slaves for human sacrifice was common in the Shang Dynasty and other vassal states. It was only during the reign of Emperor Yi of the Shang Dynasty that the number of human sacrifices began to decrease.
During the seven years since Emperor Xin came to power, he had basically never performed any human sacrifices. Even when Emperor Xin held a grand ceremony for his ancestor Emperor Yi a few years ago, he still used livestock!
But when it comes to human sacrifice, Xiqi Kingdom is the most frequent among the vassal states. Human sacrifices are only used in other vassal states’ major ceremonies, and they are not even more frequent!
In this era, slaves are just animals, and the slaves of Dashang are better than the slaves of other vassal states. They don't have to be sacrificed or martyred!
After Emperor Xin Nuwa beheaded the statues of gods with swords in the temple, Chaoge and even Dashang began to demolish temples and smash statues.
In just a few days, there was no complete statue of Nuwa in Dashang. Dashang completely drew a clear line with Nuwa!
According to the original trajectory, Emperor Xin should have written a poem to blaspheme Nuwa. Although now it has become Emperor Xin to kill Nuwa with his sword, the blasphemy has not diminished, but has intensified!
Yuan Futong and other seventy-two princes rebelled, which was just the prelude to the Conferring Gods Calamity, and Emperor Xin's offering of incense was the beginning of the Conferring Gods Calamity!
Emperor Xin's sword killed the statue of Nuwa and blasphemed the saint, which completely aggravated the calamity of the calamity. The calamity came to the prehistoric world, and the Conferring Calamity of the Gods officially began!
Because the Conferring Gods to Measure Tribulation is related to the prosperity and overthrow of the human dynasty, Di Xin, as the human king, is extremely important in the Conferring Tribulation. Most of the calamity energy of Conferring Gods to Measure Tribulation is in Di Xin!
Di Xin's aura of human king and aura of calamity echo each other. Now that Di Xin has two auras to protect his body, even a saint would not dare to attack Di Xin. Once he attacks Di Xin, he will be infected with the aura of calamity and great karma.
!
Wahuangtian, Wahuang Palace...
The saintly face of Nuwa was furious because Di Xin slashed her statue twice with his sword. Di Xin was the second living being in the whole world who dared to be so disrespectful to her, Nu Wa, besides Zu Xiong Xiaobai!
Nuwa was originally a saint, but now she is regaining her reputation as the mother goddess of the human race.
Di Xin was disrespectful to her before. For the sake of the name of the human mother goddess, she did not bother to argue with Di Xin, a human ant.
Even though she was released from seclusion, she didn't care about Emperor Xin beheading her statue in the Marquis of Donghuai many years ago!
Now Emperor Xin has beheaded her statue of Nuwa, demolished her temple in Dashang, and destroyed her reputation in Dashhang. This man, Emperor Xin, is simply deceiving the saints too much!
The majesty of a saint must never be insulted!
When she thought of this, Nuwa's anger could no longer be contained. She left the Wa Palace in one step and headed for Chaoge!
Above Chaoge, just when Nuwa was about to use her magical power to raze Chaoge to the ground, a person who looked exactly like her appeared and stopped Nuwa!
Nuwa knew very well that the other self in front of her was transformed from human nature, so she asked:
"Why are you trying to stop me?"
Humanity looked at Nuwa and did not directly admonish her, but asked:
"Nuwa, do you know why no other saint came to stop you?"
The other saints must have noticed that Emperor Xin's sword killed the statue of Nuwa, but the other saints did not make any move, as if it did not happen. There is undoubtedly something wrong with this!
"what for?"
Nuwa was so angry that she couldn't calm down and think, so she asked Humanity directly.
Looking at Nuwa's current performance, Humanity seriously doubted that she had chosen the wrong spokesperson. She should have asked Na Xiong to be her spokesperson. Even if Na Xiong was unwilling, she could still force him!
If Tiandao knew what Humanity was thinking, he would probably start a war directly. Humanity would want to snatch her bear, and she would be too lazy to cook the frog slowly!
Humanity thinks that even if the bear is not good, he can still find Taiqing Laozi and Nuwa to be his spokesperson. This is the biggest mistake Humanity feels he has made!
Humanity had no choice but to explain to Nuwa:
"Now, the Calamity Tribulation has begun. Now most of the Tribulation Qi is on Di Xin. Di Xin has the aura of a human king to protect his body and has the Tribulation Qi added to his body. Now Di Xin is very important to the Calamity Tribulation.
Hongjun, the Taoist ancestor of this calamity, has planned to use the Book of Heaven to become a deity to measure the calamity.
If you take action against Di Xin, the entire calamity will collapse in advance.
The calamity of the Gods that should have been borne by other saints and members of the sect will all be borne by you, Nuwa, and you may not be able to withstand the calamity of the Gods!"
Humanity is right, the saints do hope that Nuwa will attack Di Xin.
Di Xin is an important existence for the Conferring God Calamity Tribulation. If Di Xin falls into the hands of Nuwa and the Yaozu in advance, the Conferring God Calming Tribulation will be self-defeating, and the Calming Calamity Calamity will also collapse!
At that time, all the tribulation energy from the Fengshen Measuring Tribulation will be turned into karma and transferred to Nuwa. As for whether Nuwa can resist it, the saints don't care.
What the saints care about is just to survive this disaster and preserve their religious traditions!
Therefore, even if the saints knew that Di Xin had offended Nuwa, they pretended not to know and chose to remain unknown!
Although Humanity has not been very active in these years, Humanity feels that it has a thorough understanding of the calamity!
This divine calamity was originally related to the overthrow of the human dynasty and the rise and fall of the saintly sect!
Humanity feels that as long as the layout of the Conferred God Tribulation is right, she, Humanity, can regain control of the human race.
Not only can the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors be abolished, as well as the Emperor of History and the Military Master, but also the saints of the Heavenly Way can be dealt with, and the Heavenly Way can be suppressed at the same time.
Therefore, humanity does not want Nuwa to do stupid things out of personal anger!
The Conferring God Measuring Tribulation, how can anyone see it so simple? This Conferring God Measuring Tribulation is Daozu Hongjun’s bait, and the fish he wants to catch are the human way and the authentic way!
Nuwa glanced at Chaoge below and said to Humanity:
"Di Xin humiliated me like this, I really can't breathe my last breath!"
After some advice from Humanity, Nuwa finally realized it, but she still couldn't swallow it!
Zu Xiong Xiaobai dared to offend him again and again because the evil bear was backed by Hou Tu and Demon Zu Luohu, so the bear cub was not afraid of him!
But this Emperor Xin, a human ant, dared to offend her like this without any support. If she was not punished, Nuwa would really not be able to swallow this breath!
Di Xin just wanted to say: He Di Xin is also in the background. He is Zu Xiong Xiaobai’s self-dead body. If something goes wrong, Zu Xiong Xiaobai will be the one to resist!
Seeing Nuwa like this, Humanity admonished:
"Nu Wa, Dashang still has twenty-eight years of luck, and Emperor Xin only has twenty-eight years. Why should you be angry as a saint!"
After Humanity said this, Nuwa left Chaoge and returned to her palace!
After Nuwa left, Humanity looked at Chaoge a few more times and then left too!
The other saints who wanted to see the show felt a little lonely when they didn't see the show!
In the spring of April in the eighth year of Emperor Xin's reign, except for the Northern Chonghou Kingdom, other vassal states, under the instructions of the Yao clan, paid more or less less tribute to Chao Ge. The most egregious thing was that the Jizhou Kingdom did not pay tribute on time!
The behavior of the princes made Emperor Xin furious, especially the Hou Suhu of Jizhou who failed to pay tribute on time. This kind of impact was very bad!
This year Jizhou Hou Suhu dared not pay tribute on time. If we don't pursue it, who knows how many princes will not pay tribute next year. This matter must be dealt with seriously!
Emperor Xin sat on the throne, looked at the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and said:
"What do the ministers think of the fact that Suhu, the Marquis of Jizhou, failed to pay tribute on time?"
Although Di Xin already had an idea, he still wanted to hear the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs' idea!
At this moment, one of the civil servants stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, Chaoge only sent troops to attack Beihai rebels last year. Fei Zhong feels that it is not appropriate to send troops to attack Jizhou. Just give Su Hu a beating.
I heard that the Marquis of Jizhou, Suhu, has a daughter who is as beautiful as a fairy. Now that the king has no children, it is better for Su Hu to donate his daughter, so that he can give the king a legitimate son, and at the same time, he can defeat Su Hu!"
Fei Zhong was actually related to Di Xin. He was Di Xin's uncle and cousin.
"Your Majesty, I, Your Majesty, second your proposal!"
The civil servant Youhun stood up and seconded the proposal. He was Fei Zhong's good friend in the court.
The reason why the two can become good friends is because they are incompetent and have no status among the civil and military ministers, so they can only join forces to keep warm!
After the two discussed it, Di Xin said directly without thinking too much:
"Pull him out and punish thirty!"
Di Xin knew from Zu Xiong Xiaobai's memory that these two were sycophants, so he didn't like them very much!
"King!"
Fei Zhong, Youhun and Fei Zhong were pulled out of the hall by soldiers just as they wanted to beg for mercy!
Di Xin turned his attention to the general and said:
"Which of you is willing to take command and lead a hundred thousand troops to attack Jizhou?"
Di Xin doesn't have a good temper. Since Su Hu dares not to pay tribute on time, Di Xin will deal with him!
Jizhou Suhu's troops only had 60,000 or 70,000 troops. Emperor Xin felt that it would not be a big problem who would lead these generals if he had 100,000 troops!
Wucheng King Huang Feihu was the first to stand up and said:
"Your Majesty, Huang Feihu, is willing to lead one hundred thousand troops with his generals to attack Jizhou Hou Suhu for your Majesty!"
Huang Feihu has been named King Wu Cheng for a long time, but he has never made any great achievements!
The civil and military ministers of the Shang Dynasty secretly said that Huang Feihu, the title of King Wucheng, was obtained through his marriage to Huang Feiyan!
Huang Feihu would have tolerated it before, but in recent years the number of Emperor Xin's court appearances has become less frequent, and it is rumored that Emperor Xin was obsessed with the beauty of Queen Jiang and Huang Feiyan.
This puts the Huang family's reputation on the edge of a knife!
Therefore, Huang Feihu needs military exploits to defend his title of King Wucheng and the reputation of the Huang family!
When Emperor Xin was about to give his approval, veteran Lu Xiong stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, this is just a feudal state in Jizhou, and there is no need to send troops to Chaoge to attack it.
Your Majesty, the Bei Chonghou Kingdom and the Xiqi Hou Kingdom are not far from the Jizhou Kingdom. Your Majesty, you can order Bei Bohou Chonghou Hu and Xibo Hou Jichang to lead their troops to attack the Jizhou Hou Kingdom. At the same time, you can also test the two big princes to fight against each other.
I, the great merchant, am loyal!”
As soon as Lu Xiong finished speaking, other civil and military ministers thought this proposal was a good one!
Only Wucheng King Huang Feihu's face darkened. He was still thinking about using military exploits to defend himself and the Huang family's reputation, but in the end, Lu Xiong jumped out and ruined his good deeds!
However, Huang Feihu could only endure it and did not dare to refute!
After all, Lu Xiong is a veteran of Dashang, and he is of the same generation as his father Huang Gun, and their relationship is quite close!
Huang Feihu still doesn't understand his father Huang Gun. If Huang Gun knew that Lu Xiong ruined the Huang family's planned military exploits, he would have quarreled with Lu Xiong long ago!
"I am passing on this king's order to order Xibohou Jichang and Beibohou Chonghou Hu to send troops to attack the princes of Jizhou!"
Emperor Xin, as his ancestor Xiong Xiaobai, naturally knew that Xibo Hou Jichang was a rebellious minister of Great Shang.
Emperor Xin knew that Ji Chang would not send troops, but the reason why he gave the order was to have a reason to attack Xiqi in the future!
After Emperor Xin gave the order, Wucheng King Huang Feihu knew that there was no hope for him in battle, and immediately stood back to his original position with a lonely look in his eyes!
But just as Huang Feihu stood back to his original position, Di Xin said:
"Wucheng King Huang Feihu obeys the order!"
Huang Feihu was immediately excited by Di Xin's words, stood up, knelt down on one knee and said:
"The end is here!"
Huang Feihu saw Di Xin’s intention and thought it would be fun to lead the troops to fight by himself!
"Huang Feihu, lead one hundred thousand troops and leave Chaoge for Jizhou!"
Emperor Xin knew that Ji Chang would not send troops, and Chonghou Hu had no capable people around him, and his abilities were limited, so he would not be able to attack Jizhou for a long time, so Emperor Xin asked Huang Feihu to send troops to help Chonghou Tiger!
"I will obey the king's orders!"
Wucheng King Huang Feihu was overjoyed, but also a little worried. He was afraid that when he led his troops to attack the Jizhou Kingdom, the Jizhou Kingdom would have been taken over by Ji Chang and Chonghou Hu, so he would not be able to get any military merit!
But Huang Feihu’s worries are unnecessary!
…
After Emperor Xin's royal order was conveyed to Bei Chonghou Kingdom and Xiqi Hou Kingdom, Beibei Hou Chonghou Hu immediately took his eldest son Chong Yingbiao and a group of generals to send 50,000 troops to attack Jizhou Kingdom!
Chonghou Hu knew that Jizhou had about 60,000 troops. The reason why he brought 50,000 troops was because he thought Ji Chang would also send troops.
If Ji Chang also sends 50,000 troops, there will be a total of 100,000 troops, which can attack the princes of Jizhou from both sides!
However, Beibeihou Chonghou Hu went to think wrong. Ji Chang did not plan to send troops this time!
Ji Chang has always been known as a benevolent and righteous prince. If he sends troops like this, it will be detrimental to his reputation!
In addition, Xibohou Jichang seriously suspected that Emperor Xin wanted to consume the troops of Xiqi Hou Kingdom, and Jichang was not willing to waste troops for Chaoge!
Moreover, Ji Chang also wanted to use this disobedience to test Emperor Xin, see Chaoge's military strength, and Emperor Xin's attitude!
