Nearly ten years have passed since King Zhou forced Queen Jiang to death. After Jiang Huanchu, the Marquis of Dongbo, received the news, he sent several letters from envoys asking King Zhou why he killed his daughter.
King Zhou was very annoyed, but he was worried that Jiang Huanchu would rebel against business. He always spoke vaguely, and planned to stabilize Dongbohou first. After a while, the matter would probably calm down.
However, he has been feeling upset and irritable recently, and he has an inexplicable anger. He feels unhappy when he looks at anything. Even if he is accompanied by a stunning beauty like Su Daji, he still can't get rid of the unreasonable feeling of mania.
On this day, another letter came from Jiang Huanchu, asking about the whereabouts of the two princes Yin Jiao and Yin Hong. He said that tiger poison does not eat its children, and King Zhou did not even spare his own sons, causing the two highnesses to disappear.
After King Zhou read the memorial, he suddenly felt a surge of hatred. He thought that he was the emperor, the supreme being in the world, but Jiang Huanchu, a Dongbohou, dared to point fingers at the monarch. He lacked a sense of awe, which was indeed unbecoming of a courtier. It was abominable.
pole.
"Fei Zhong and You Hun are here to see you." King Zhou walked around the palace for a few times, feeling resentful in his heart. He thought that these two favorite ministers always had ideas, so he wanted to ask them if there was any way to solve the problem once and for all.
.
After Fei Zhong and Youhun heard what King Zhou said, they looked at each other secretly and were secretly happy. Fei Zhong had already had an idea, and then he said: "After the death of Queen Jiang, the two highnesses hated your majesty deeply. They originally wanted to
He went to Dong Bohou and Nan Bohou to borrow troops to rebel. Although he disappeared, he must be hiding somewhere waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble."
"Now that ten years have passed, your two highnesses have grown up. If you collude with the princes again, there will be trouble. Your Majesty, why not secretly convey the four decrees, lure the princes of the four towns into the capital, and give orders to eradicate the roots. Those eight hundred towns
When the princes know that the four ministers are dead, they will be like a dragon that has lost its head and a tiger that has no teeth. It will not dare to run rampant, and the world will be safe and peaceful. I wonder what the holy will is?"
King Zhou was overjoyed when he heard the words and praised him: "You are really a genius, and you have the strategy to stabilize the country." At that moment, he sent a message to the four princes and ordered the four princes to come to the capital to see you.
Although the vastness of the prehistoric period is immeasurable, in this era when Taoism manifested its sage, there was also the Liuhe Qingqiong Formation connecting the north and the south, so the distance was naturally no longer a problem. Among the princes, there were highly cultivated immortals who worshiped the immortals, taking Hou Bo with them.
In just a few months, we traveled across endless time and space to Chaoge.
The next day when the court came to court, each of the four great princes presented this chapter, but King Zhou didn't even look at it and scolded him directly: "Jiang Huanchu, do you know your sin?"
Jiang Huanchu reported: "I am in charge of Donglu, solemnly guarding the court, obeying the law and observing the public affairs, and committing suicide. What crime can be known? Your Majesty does not care about your first wife, and all your sons are ruined. In fact, the king is responsible for the ministers, and the ministers are not responsible for them."
Jun."
King Zhou was furious and cursed: "Old traitor! He ordered his daughter to kill the king and usurp the throne. He has sinned like a mountain. Now he is making excuses and trying to slip through the net." He ordered the warriors to: "Take out the Meridian Gate, smash his body into pieces, and use it to kill the king."
The law of the land!"
The remaining three princes saw that King Zhou did not read Jiang Huanchu's memorial and directly wanted to kill him. They knelt down and begged for mercy. Each of them had his own memorial.
King Zhou read this chapter from the three princes, and all of them advised him to pay close attention to virtuous ministers, stay away from villains, be diligent in government affairs, and abstain from extravagance, hunting, etc. He was about to kill the four princes, but when he saw this memorial, he became even more angry and said:
"Send these rebellious ministers to justice!"
The warriors pushed out several princes, and in the palace Bigan, Mei Bo and other loyal ministers hurriedly interceded for mercy. However, King Zhou was already filled with tyranny and would not allow it. At the critical moment, a sudden burst of people wearing jingle bells came.
King Zhou and his ministers looked up and saw that it was Daji who went to the palace with his prince Wu Geng. He knelt down and said, "The four princes have worked hard and are loyal. If we kill them, we will lose the popularity of the people in the world. I really can't bear the king's mistakes.
If your Majesty insists on killing me, please kill me, my mother and my son together."
Although King Zhou was tyrannical, he doted on Daji deeply. He could not bear it when he saw her begging for death. He pondered for a moment, patted the case and said: "Let's put these old men in prison first, and we will talk about it later."
The ministers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered the four princes to be imprisoned, hoping to find a way to plead for help after the dynasty was dismissed.
When King Zhou returned to the Shouxian Palace, Su Daji had been waiting for her. She saluted and said: "I contradict the king today, but I am loyal and have no selfish thoughts. I hope the king will understand clearly."
King Zhou sighed: "The beauty begs for mercy, and the lonely king should agree. It's just that the four great princes have long harbored resentments. If they are not eliminated early, disaster will surely occur!"
Su Daji smiled and said: "It is rude to forgive my concubine. This strategy is actually a foolish move. The four princes are each sitting in their own kingdoms. Even though they died, their kingdoms were not destroyed. Today I killed four people and gave them an excuse to rebel.
Tomorrow there will be sons and heirs who will take over the throne, and there is no doubt that they will rebel. If they are retained and restrained by the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, they will not make any mistakes."
King Zhou thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He touched his palm and said, "I don't expect a beautiful woman to have such knowledge. I would have made a big mistake."
Early the next morning, King Zhou ordered the release of the four major princes, and ordered them to send troops and horses to assist Wen Taishi in clearing Beihai, Yuan Futong and other seventy-two rebel princes. All the ministers praised King Zhou for his wisdom.
After the dynasty ended, in an ordinary courtyard in Chaoge City, an elderly official had a strange expression on his face, his eyebrows were tangled, and he seemed to have a difficult question.
"Uncle, you look so sad, are you being bullied? Tell me, and I will avenge you."
At this moment, a teenage boy came over and saw that the old man looked bad, so he asked.
The old man smiled and said: "No one bullied me, but the development of the situation was beyond my expectation. I had already calculated that Dong Bohou and Nan Bo were destined to die, but I didn't expect them to escape. In this way, the situation
It becomes complicated.”
The young man had a childish look on his face, with two buns on his head that reached the sky. His face was as pink as powder, and he was extremely cute. He blinked his smart eyes and said doubtfully: "Uncle Master is afraid that Donglu and Nanfang won't rebel until they die.
Is it bad for Xiqi if no one takes the lead for the king and attracts the attention of the great merchants?"
The old man praised: "This is exactly the truth. Nezha, you are really smart and clever, and you can understand everything at once."
Nezha smiled complacently and asked: "Since the fate of Dongbohou and Nanbohou have changed, will Xibohou also have problems?"
The old man said: "This is what I'm worried about. Xibohou originally only had seven years in prison, and Torma's human relationship was miserable. But now the fate has changed, and I'm not sure anymore."
Nezha snorted: "Then Xibohou didn't say that the innate arithmetic skills are very strong and there are no inaccuracies? Don't you know that you are going to suffer a disaster this time?"
The old man smiled slightly, touched Nezha's head, shook his head and said: "Xibohou's arithmetic skills are even better than mine, Jiang Ziya's. How can he not know about things that I can calculate? He is here to suffer this time, and he won't let it happen."
When King Zhou lost his virtue, he first betrayed Xiqi. How could Xiqi secretly accumulate strength so that he could defeat Zhou legitimately in the future?"
Nezha tilted his little head and thought for a while, then clapped his hands and said: "In other words, Xibohou suffered deliberately and even sacrificed his son for the great cause of the Western Zhou Dynasty?"
Jiang Ziya was silent for a while and sighed: "This is just a possibility. The future is changing all the time. Maybe he has calculated more things. It's not necessarily that Boyikao will have another chance!"
Nezha nodded and said: "That's true. However, immortals can change their own lives, and Daluo Jinxian can even change the lives of others at will. Uncle Master, I don't think you have any doubts. The emperor on earth has luck to protect his body, his personality
No longer under the Daluo Jinxian, it is not simple to say that a mortal's fate is simple."
Jiang Ziya was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead and cursed with a smile: "I'm such an old fool, I didn't even think of this. It seems to be influenced by Chaoge's Dragon Qi. Alas, in the capital of the emperor, where cause and effect are entangled, the worldly Qi is the strongest.
, the Luck Golden Dragon is suppressing it again, which is too unfriendly to Qi practitioners like us. After this time, I’d better go directly to Xiqi.”
