Chapter 590 Three real people enter the court song
The young Ji Dan picked up the memorial and looked at it, with a smile in his clear eyes.
There were two memorials. The first one was to report that the eldest prince Zi Qi intended to recruit the Jiang family of Dong Bohou to join the family. The Jiang family was the head of the eight hundred princes and had a decisive influence in the Shang Kingdom.
The second report is that Li Jing and other eight Eastern Pass generals have arrived outside Chaoge City and are waiting to be received by His Majesty the Prince.
"You can still laugh."
Donghuang Taiyi said calmly:
"It doesn't matter what happened to Ziqi, he can't afford to cause any trouble.
"There is no need to worry about the Jiang family. I have agreed to marry Dong Bohou's daughter. Even though she is just twelve or thirteen years old, it will take several years before she can marry her.
"On the other hand, these eight generals have an army of millions in the east and cannot cause any trouble.
"Without the king's decree, the generals are not allowed to come to the royal city. These generals hold real power. The purpose of setting up generals stationed abroad is to prevent the princes from causing rebellion. The troops and horses in the east are under their control. They cannot move easily, and it is difficult to prevent them from entering the city.
And returning is really a bit of a headache.”
Li Ping'an said sternly: "Your Highness, the previous king issued an order, how come it is not a king's order?"
"It's better not to go overboard at this moment."
Donghuang Taiyi said seriously:
"Especially you and I don't know why these general soldiers are here."
Li Ping'an smiled and said: "Maybe they saw that the weather was going to change here, so they came here to take a walk in advance?"
Several ministers looked at each other and each pondered.
Li Ping'an added: "Actually, there is no need to worry about this matter at all. Your Highness can send an envoy to find these eight general soldiers and tell them that the king is in a coma and cannot issue royal orders. You can send one person to Chaoge City to inform them.
They are responsible for any possible crimes that may occur if they enter Chaoge City."
Donghuang Taiyi pondered: "Will they agree?"
"Your Highness, how will you know if you don't try?"
A minister said slowly: "Li Jing, the commander-in-chief of Chentangguan, has made many military exploits in resisting Dongyi over the years. He has been awarded many times by the king. He is the most famous among the eight commander-in-chief."
Another minister said: "I have also heard of the name of Li Jing. He was like a god in using troops and was brave and good at fighting. He once broke into a large army of Dongyi barbarians on horseback and took the leader's head. Now all the tribes in Dongyi have heard about him."
Name and appearance change."
Li Ping'an laughed secretly in his heart.
Although the Juetian Formation suppressed the Qi Refiner's cultivation, after being suppressed, Li Jing could still have combat power above that of an immortal. It would be just a joke to charge among the mortal army.
Donghuang Taiyi said: "So, this Li Jing is still a fierce general of our Dashang guarding the border. How should I reward him?"
"Your Highness, the Commander-in-Chief is already the highest military rank in the country, and others can only be granted the title of Marquis."
"According to our practice in the Great Shang Dynasty, Li Jing can be granted the title of Marquis after his death. If his son inherits the position of Commander-in-Chief and is also brave and good at fighting, and has made outstanding military exploits, then he can be granted the title of Marquis."
"The purpose of the general army is to guard against the princes. If they become princes, we, the great merchants, will really have no soldiers to use."
Several ministers spoke one after another.
That means that it is best not to give too many rewards to Li Jing. Li Jing is not a businessman either.
Donghuang Taiyi nodded slowly. He was good at showing off, but he respected the opinions of these ministers.
"Ji Dan, why are you laughing next to me?"
"Eh? Am I smiling?" Li Pingan raised his hand and touched his chin.
Donghuang Taiyi leaned back: "You were obviously smiling just now, okay, you are the messenger, it was you who came up with the idea anyway."
Li Ping'an Shiran stood up and cupped his hands towards Donghuang Taiyi: "Thank you for your highness's trust. Although I have just recovered from a serious illness and am weak, your highness has given orders, so I can only work hard."
"Go ahead you!"
Donghuang Taiyi kicked him, and young Ji Dan left the study dejectedly.
Several ministers in the room smiled and said nothing.
There was a minister here called Shang Rong. He was a wise minister of the Shang Kingdom. He had assisted Emperor Yi for decades and was in charge of the rituals and music of the country. He was also the one who persuaded Emperor Yi to abandon his son and establish him as his eldest son.
After Ji Dan left, Shang Rong's expression changed slightly and he whispered:
"Your Highness is a little too fond of Ji Dan. Although Ji Dan is sensitive, eager to learn, and intelligent, he comes from the Xibohou Mansion after all.
"Xibo Hou Ji Li, a tiger and wolf warrior, was born among the Qiang people and hunted the Qiang people in exchange for rewards. He became famous within a few years of entering Chaoge City. When Ji Li was alive, the territory of the Zhou Kingdom expanded more than ten times!
"Your Majesty initially supported Ji Li so that Zhou could have enough troops to capture the Qiang people, and he never wanted to raise tigers to cause trouble.
"After His Majesty punished Ji Li, the current Xibo Hou Jichang has been very cautious. He has never said an insulting word in the past twenty years. His character is really terrible. His son Ji Dan is such a monster. He can resolve unjust cases at the age of five and eight years old.
He is capable of deciding national affairs, but he is only a young man now, but he is already your highness's guest.
"It concerns the future of businessmen, and we have to guard against this matter."
When Donghuang Taiyi heard this, the smile on his lips became even stronger.
He said disapprovingly: "It is a taboo for a king to kill a meritorious minister for no fault. If you are not confident that you can suppress such a capable minister, then there is no need to use it at all. I am confident that I can suppress Ji Dan, and he is not ambitious.
People, don’t worry.”
Shang Rong nodded slowly when he heard this and said in a low voice: "I have a granddaughter who is about the same age as Ji Dan. She is very beautiful and has read a lot. Should I give it to Ji Dan to monitor his daily behavior?"
Several veterans on the side couldn't bear it anymore.
This old guy is still a thief.
Want to recruit Ji Dan as your grandson-in-law without saying a word?
"Look at him like that. If he touches women again, he might not live to be alive until twenty."
Donghuang Taiyi waved his hand:
"Let's talk about this in a few years.
"Ji Dan is quite talented. You have all seen the innovative methods he wrote before. He is a great talent in governing the world.
"There are still several young girls in the royal family. We will consider how to grant him a marriage when he reaches the age of marriage.
"As for the matter between Xibohou and him, there are only a few letters between them on weekdays. His eldest brother Ji Kao also meets him once a month. He entered the palace at the age of five and probably doesn't have much memory of Xibohou Mansion. Don't worry too much.
.”
All the ministers could only nod in response.
Dong Huangtai said: "Continue to talk about what happened before."
"Your Highness, I still don't understand why we have to let people all over the city dig holes..."
"What if there is any natural disaster?"
Donghuang Taiyi organized his words and said slowly:
"For example, if fireballs suddenly fall from the sky and the earth suddenly shakes violently, wouldn't it be possible to survive by hiding in a solid hole?"
Several ministers were dumbfounded.
"Your Highness, why do fireballs suddenly rain down from the sky?"
"Yes, Your Highness, I am a great merchant who pays homage to God. All our ancestors have entered the heavenly realm and have become God's trusted ministers. God should not blame us for no reason."
God?
Donghuang Taiyi curled his lips slightly.
The current God's real name is Li Ping'an, and I met him once. He is very handsome, and he has some skills in dealing with things, but his words are too ugly.
There will be more than just fireballs behind it.
In ancient times, the most powerful fighting method was to randomly grab a small world and throw it at the opponent, and the karma caused by smashing the small world was shared equally by both parties.
Even if there is some great formation protecting the city, if the two sects of Chanjie really fight and a magic weapon is accidentally dropped, it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of people in this city will die.
However, these things cannot be explained to these ministers at all.
Donghuang Taiyi could only say: "I had a dream before, and several ancestors appeared and told me that some natural disasters might happen next. It was said that a rebel army appeared in the heaven, trying to subvert God.
"
These old ministers stared and said nothing.
The King of Shang holds the sole right to interpret the myths of the Shang Kingdom, which is the basis for merchants to rule the world.
Zi Shou will soon be in power. No matter how ridiculous his words are, they, the ministers, must believe them.
Shang Rong sighed: "It seems that there are many princes in heaven whose tail is too big to lose."
"Everyone continues to think about how to get the people in the city to dig more holes and store enough food and water in the holes."
Dong Huangtai scratched his brow with one finger.
He regretted that he had sent Ji Dan to meet those eastern general soldiers in such a hurry.
If Ji Dan were here, he would definitely have all kinds of sexy ideas.
…
Chaoge City is really prosperous.
Putting aside the slaughter street on the west side of the palace, this place can satisfy almost all Li Ping'an's imagination of ancient slave society.
The carriage he was riding in, protected by a large number of soldiers, rushed towards the east gate of the city.
The main road in Chaoge City is more than ten feet wide. In the middle is the lane reserved for princes and nobles, and on the left and right are the pathways reserved for the common people.
slave?
Slaves are not allowed to go to the highway by themselves.
At this moment, Li Ping'an's carriage was passing by, and at some intersections you could still see figures of slaves kneeling in obeisance.
Li Ping'an was almost numb to this situation.
The biggest problem in the civilization of Southern Continent now is human sacrifice. First of all, human sacrifice should be abolished, and then we can step out of slavery.
Isn’t it the same in Dongzhou?
Mortals admire immortals, and as long as they are doing well in the casual cultivator, who doesn’t have a large number of mortal ‘minions’?
However, Nanzhou relies on artificial class division, while Dongzhou relies on the mentality of seeking strength.
In fact, he has tried in the past few years to spread some "dangerous" ideas to this world in Chaoge City. It cannot be said that the results have been minimal, but it can only be said that it is of no use.
To complete social change, it is often necessary for the entire social system to move forward. When conflicts accumulate to a certain extent, another hero will come to cheer him up.
The hero's rallying cry is actually just the final move to ignite the fire of change.
Li Pingjing thought about this problem quietly.
Suddenly, Li Pingandao's heart trembled slightly, and he felt a pair of sharp eyes like a falcon staring at him on the roadside.
Li Ping'an's celestial sense checked back and saw a figure wearing a cloak and a hat, walking slowly from the edge of the road, seemingly locked on his bicycle frame.
interesting.
Li Ping'an pinched his fingers slightly in his sleeves, and then he understood the identity of the other party.
Demon.
Caused by land pressure?
Could it be that Lu Ya found out clearly that the human being whom Donghuang Taiyi trusted the most now was a handsome and unparalleled young man, so he wanted to kill this young man or replace him?
Li Ping'an was not in a hurry at all. He casually picked up the bamboo slips stored aside and began to appreciate the writings of these merchants.
The carriage traveled for another half an hour, and we were still quite a distance from the East City Gate.
Another monster appeared, just like the previous monster, staring at Ji Dan's frame.
The strange beasts pulling the cart had begun to become restless.
Their senses are much more sensitive than humans. In their perception, there are now two huge ferocious beasts slowly approaching them.
These strange beasts couldn't help but speed up.
The speed of the entire team also increased, and the "shock-absorbing" frame improved by Li Ping'an began to tremble and shake.
Li Ping'an continued to read his book and did not pay much attention to the matter.
As long as these monsters dare to attack his little clone directly;
Then he would directly show up and kill Lu Ya.
Calculation...
They've all been bullied to the point where they've been scheming.
…
at the same time.
At the west gate of Chaoge City.
Jiang Shang wiped the hot sweat from his forehead and looked up at the clear sky.
He was looking for the rumored Juetian Formation, but unfortunately, his cultivation was limited and he couldn't see that thin wall of light at all.
Jiang Shang was feeling extremely uncomfortable now, and it was extremely laborious to fly through the clouds and mist. If his three senior brothers had not led him, he would have spent several days and nights running around on the ground using escape skills when he came to Chaoge City from the west.
Fortunately, everything went well with the part he was responsible for.
Jiang Shang successfully received the documents for entering the city, turned around and bowed to Huang Long, Taiyi and Yuding who were standing behind him.
"Senior brother, we can enter the city."
In order not to cause panic among the mortals of Southern Continent, and in response to Heaven's rules and regulations on 'protecting pure Southern Continent', they all wore casual clothes before appearing.
Master Taiyi took off his favorite red robe and put on a light blue gown.
Master Huanglong and Master Yuding are also dressed similarly.
At this moment, the three masters of interpretation are walking forward, their feet stained with dust and their bodies stained with dirt, focusing on a down-to-earth spirit.
"Thank you, Junior Brother Jiang Shang."
Master Huanglong took the bamboo pieces with a smile and distributed them to Master Taiyi and Master Yuding. Then he went to the city gate passage where the common people only used, and quietly lined up to enter the city.
Taiyi laughed and said, "Do we have to go to such trouble? The Jiaojiao people may have gone in, and senior brother and the others have also entered the city."
"This is called a rule," Huang Long said solemnly, "The reason we are here this time is to talk to the ancient Emperor of Heaven openly and openly. Everything must be done openly. Being sneaky only ruins the prestige of our Yuxu Palace."
Master Yuding looked around with great interest: "It's quite nice here, but the people are divided into different grades. Some people can't stand up even if they are kneeling."
"This is a matter for safety, so let's not worry about it."
Taiyi Zhenren yawned:
"Senior brother, junior brother, you still have to brace yourself when entering the city later. Lu Ya may be hiding here. He has the immortal-killing flying knife, which will be quite troublesome."
Master Huang Long said with emotion: "That is such a good treasure."
Taiyi laughed: "Senior brother, don't you have several spiritual treasures?"
"Hey," Master Huang Long shook his head, "How can Pindao's few treasures compare with the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife? The last time he fought with Ma Yuan, Pindao almost suffered a big loss."
Yuding said in a deep voice: "Try not to let us take action later. If we really want to take action, we must at least leave the city. There are too many mortals here."
"good."
"OK!"
"Are we going to fight later?" Jiang Shang turned around and asked with some anxiety.
Master Taiyi said seriously: "Otherwise, why would we bring our junior brother here? Junior brother is the main force in the fight."
Jiang Shang suddenly raised his chest and raised his head, his whole body filled with a sense of responsibility.
Master Yuding suddenly frowned.
He looked towards the city, his eyes quickly zoomed out to an unknown distance, and locked onto Ji Dan's bicycle frame. He then looked to the left and right, where the two figures were chasing the bicycle frame as fast as flying.
Big monster?
Master Yuding thought for a moment, then made a magic formula and immediately closed his eyes to rest his mind.
A shadow flew out of his forehead in an instant, passed over the bustling Chaoge City, and stood on the roof of the carriage.
The phantom looked around, with a slight sneer on its lips. A soft drink did not disturb any mortals, but it rang in the ears of the two great demons.
