When he saw the king's purple energy surrounding Chao Ge's army turning into blood, even if he was as calm as Cheng Peng, he couldn't help but stamp his feet in anxiety.
The purple aura of the king is where a king's luck lies. The thicker the purple aura, the better the luck of the king and the more blessing he receives from God. But what is the blood light? The blood light is a sign of being hated by God after doing many evil things. Blood light
Covering one's head means that bad luck is not far away... This truth is of course not true in reality, but in a world of gods and monsters like Fengshen Yanyi, it is an unshakable iron law!
People often say that "Heaven's heart is unpredictable." In fact, God's thoughts are not unpredictable, especially in these traditional mythological worlds.
The common people's expectations for the monarch are very simple, not so fancy, and in general they are nothing more than "caring for the people". However, these four words are easy to say, but difficult to do - even if it is no longer necessary.
No matter how simple or upright a person is, if he sits in that supreme position for a long time, he will inevitably gradually deteriorate. Kindness can become vicious, straightforwardness can become insidious, and full of blood will eventually turn into full of bad water... Fortunately...
The common people are not so harsh and do not require the monarch to be a saint. As long as they do not go too far and allow people to live, they will not have too many complaints. At most, they can just chat and criticize the current affairs after dinner, just to satisfy their appetite.
However, there is always such a thing as a "bottom line" in the world.
The massacre of the city, no matter what the reason was, has exceeded the "bottom line"!
As a disciple of Yuxu Palace, Zhou Ren followed the order of Yuanshi Tianzun to disrupt Chaoge and kill innocent people. In fact, the real number of casualties were not many, but it had caused Cheng Peng to block the door and fight for a long time. None of the twelve golden immortals dared to come forward to help.
His situation was such that even when the Antarctic Immortal finally came to mediate, he did not dare to say "resolve the grudges", but "let's record the grudges for now and talk about it when we meet on the battlefield tomorrow". This shows how serious this bottom-line thing is.
But this time, Emperor Xin instructed Yin Chengxiu to massacre the territory of the two princes in the city, killing all the chickens and dogs in the city!
Heaven is clear and cannot be deceived. Once this perverse thing is done, it will immediately make God angry. No one knows what the consequences will be!
"Oh! What a failure! What a failure!" In the team channel, Wei Ye was already slapping his thighs and sighing loudly, "Why is this guy Di Xin so uncool!"
"He died of his beloved concubine who was pregnant, and his junior brother who was closer than a brother. How can you keep him calm?" He Ming sighed deeply, "If it were you in his position, I'm afraid you would do better than him.
He is more ruthless!"
"I am a Taoist priest, and he is the Son of Heaven. If I do something wrong, I will be blasted by thunder. If he does something wrong, there is no way that he can do things for everyone!" Wei Ye immediately retorted, "Who made him the Emperor?
Come on! Since you are sitting on the Dragon Throne, your personal joys, anger, sorrows and joys must give way to the overall situation!"
"What's the point of talking about this now!" Cheng Peng sighed, "I'm only worried about one thing now..."
"What's up?"
"Looking at the murderous look on his body...I'm afraid this is just the beginning. If the minor princes loyal to Xibohou refuse to surrender in the future, he may even massacre the city."
"It's impossible!" The exclamations came one after another, followed closely by a cry of wailing.
Obviously, Cheng Peng's worries are definitely not unfounded. Emperor Xin will implicate many people because of his anger, so that he will continue to massacre the city? This is very possible!
This massacre of the city has completely wiped out the luck that Di Xin has accumulated over a long period of time. If he continues to massacre the city, he will probably be struck by lightning before he is defeated on the battlefield!
Cheng Peng came to Di Xin's camp worriedly, and saw Chao Tian coming out dejectedly.
"General Chao, are you too...?" Although he had already guessed, he still couldn't help but ask, "What does your Majesty mean?"
"Alas! Your Majesty is determined to do it to the end this time. I tried to persuade him for a long time and he ignored it. He just insisted on saying, 'You have no joke'!" Chao Tian's whole person seemed to have turned gray, and he was so depressed that people doubted whether he would do it.
He would turn into a pile of ashes and collapse on the ground while walking, "He is usually a very easy-to-talk person, but he is so stubborn this time!"
When Cheng Peng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"General Cheng, are you going to persuade me? I think you'd better give up on this idea... The old master came to persuade you just now, but Your Majesty didn't listen... The old master has already sent someone to ask the Queen to revise the book and persuade you."
, now... I'm afraid only what she said can be heard by Your Majesty..." Chao Tian sighed, lowered his head and walked away.
"Whether it works or not, you have to try it to find out." Cheng Peng said to himself, and after reporting to the guards, he got permission to meet.
Entering the tent, I saw Emperor Xin with a tired look on his face, lying weakly on the dragon chair, without the slightest majesty of the emperor. He was obviously dizzy from the continuous remonstrances of the ministers, and he was talking to the ministers one by one.
He was so exhausted from all the debates and disputes that he couldn't even care about his appearance.
"Are you also here to persuade me to be an orphan?" he asked weakly.
Cheng Peng thought for a while and said: "Is it more convenient for a person to climb a mountain by walking up the existing mountain road? Or is it more convenient to open a road by yourself?"
Di Xin smiled and sat up straight: "I understand what you mean; I also understand what you mean. But you don't understand my mood."
Cheng Peng was slightly surprised. He looked up and saw that he took out a half-parted fox tail from his clothes. It was already late September and the weather was slightly cool, but it was not yet enough to use fox fur.
, but I don’t know why he wants to——
Cheng Peng's body suddenly shook violently and he understood what Di Xin meant.
"Is this... Concubine Yang?" he asked tentatively.
"As expected, you know that he is worthy of being crowned a god on behalf of heaven." Di Xin revealed Cheng Peng's identity in one sentence, but did not go into details. Instead, he asked, "Suppose there is no emperor here at this moment, no divine envoy, and only one who has lost his wife.
Her husband and a sorcerer who can communicate with yin and yang...is she...ok?"
Cheng Peng sighed deeply, straightened his face, and replied seriously: "Concubine Yang is already in Heaven. If your Majesty can become a god in the future, you will definitely see her."
"Oh?" Di Xin smiled and stretched out his hand, "Bring me that 'contract' of yours and sign it alone!"
Cheng Peng took out the God's Table and unfolded it to him.
"Haha! I didn't expect so many people to have signed their names..." Di Xin looked at the names on the list of gods, his eyes gradually softening, "Old Prime Minister... Father-in-law... Chonghou... Junior Brother... Beloved Concubine...
…”
"If I also sign my name, I will have the opportunity to meet them after my death, right?"
"That's right."
"That's great!" Di Xin smiled, picked up the pen, and wrote his name directly behind the seat of Emperor Ziwei, the Lord of the Stars, at the head of the form, "This suits me, but it's just a different place to work.
No one in the world knows this job better than me!"
The strange thing is that as his name was written, the flow of blood gradually dimmed and soon disappeared without a trace.
"What's going on?" Di Xin asked doubtfully, "Why can't I write my name?"
Cheng Peng was stunned - this situation had never happened before, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Then you'd better go and investigate this matter quickly!" Di Xin said displeasedly, "It's enough for others to persuade you. You are a dignified messenger from heaven. What does the life and death of the people in one or two cities in the world have to do with you?
Go and do your business!"
"Heaven's heart is the human heart." Cheng Peng replied, "There is nothing more important than 'people' in heaven and on earth!"
"... These words come out of your mouth, it always feels very weird..." Di Xin muttered, lying back on the chair, "The reason why I dared to massacre the city was because of your encouragement.
?”
"Ah?" Cheng Peng was really stunned now - he didn't remember telling Di Xin to "encourage the massacre of the city"!
"People's words are not enough, ancestors are not enough laws, and destiny is not enough to be feared." Di Xin smiled, "To be honest, I was also very hesitant when it came to how to deal with those stubborn cities - only punish the first culprit? They are united.
, there is absolutely no point in killing the leader; wantonly hunting down the rebels? We don’t have that many manpower to use, not to mention that we are not familiar with the place, and it is impossible to do it; after thinking about it, only massacre of the city can ensure the solution to the problem."
"But massacring the city is not just talk. If I do this, people in the world will criticize me. My ancestors have never done this. Even God will be angry because of it, right?" Di Xin said so, but smiled easily,
"At this time, I thought of what you said to me - people's words are not enough, ancestors are not enough, and destiny is not enough to fear!"
"As long as I firmly believe that I am right, I should go on firmly. Nothing can stop me, and there should be no wavering!" There seemed to be flames burning in his eyes. "A moment of killing can stop me.
More people are obsessed with it - even if they don't understand who is right and who is wrong, they should still be able to understand "If you don't resist, you will die". I don't want them to support me, as long as they don't oppose it... As for
All kinds of troubles can be solved slowly after Xiqi is solved and Jifa's family is killed. I'm not too old, so I have plenty of time to fix things slowly!"
Cheng Peng was speechless.
"The results are indeed very good. After two massacres, the other princes have become much more honest and no longer dare to stand up and openly support Xiqi!" Di Xin smiled brightly, "So, I really want to thank you very much.
You! If it weren’t for the motto given by you as an angel, I really wouldn’t have the courage or determination to do that... In that case, I’m afraid the army would still be lingering around now!"
Cheng Peng didn't remember how he said goodbye, nor how he logged out of the game. When he came to his senses, he was already sitting in the study, staring blankly at the history books spread out on the table.
He was stunned for a moment, suddenly jumped up, ran to the bookshelf, pulled out the sixteenth volume from a row of eighteen volumes of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", and opened the last volume, the two hundred and sixty-fifth volume.
[...Quan Zhong stayed in Wei for half a year, and Luo Shaowei offered him a hundred million. He killed nearly 700,000 cattle, sheep, and hogs, and the amount of food and supplies was so high. He also bribed nearly a million, and when he was gone, his savings were all gone. Even though Shaowei was gone,
Forced, but the Wei army was naturally weak. Shao Wei regretted it and said to people: "The iron of six states and forty-three counties cannot be wrong for this!"]
