"Did you suggest it?" Li Danqing was a little confused.
As a former prince, Yin Wujiang was able to choose to side with the Ji family and overthrow the rule of Dashang for the sake of justice. To a certain extent, he had already done his best.
But why did he choose to exterminate his own people later?
This is a very unreasonable and logical thing. At least it is difficult for Li Danqing to understand the reason for the other party's decision.
Yin Wujiang probably also saw Li Danqing's confusion. He had no intention of hiding it and said at this time: "I mentioned before that I got a ray of dark power from that weird face, and that power brought
With vigorous vitality, it can heal the injuries in the body in an instant."
"After the Ji family overthrew the rule of Dashang, my father chose to burn himself in the palace. Some people watched with their own eyes as he was burned into a mummy, mixed with a large group of corpses, and buried by the rebels on the outskirts of the city."
"I have a keen eye. A few days after my father was buried, I went to the place where he was buried several times to take a closer look, but I didn't find anything strange."
"I was hoping for a chance, thinking that although the dark power was powerful, it wouldn't be magical enough to bring the dead back to life, so I gave up the idea of digging up my father's body and then smashing him to pieces. After all, I couldn't bear it.
It seems that there are certainly problems of his own that brought my father to where he is today, but more importantly, it is because of the bewitchment of Zhou Jue’s demon Confucian and the mysterious existence that disturbed his mind.”
"But later facts proved that my idea was too naive."
"Following his father's self-immolation, the Great Shang army was completely defeated. Only Zhou Jue still gathered the remaining troops in Lishan to try to resist, but they were quickly massacred by armies from all sides, and the Great Shang Dynasty finally came to an end."
"As a prince of the previous dynasty, I made great contributions before the Ji family entered the city. The Taizu of Wuyang was indeed a wise king. He did not make things difficult for me because of my status. Instead, he entrusted me with important responsibilities and served me well.
With his request, he also chose to treat the survivors of Dashang kindly."
"Everything was going in a good direction, but I suddenly discovered that the survivors of the previous dynasty began to disappear one after another, and their whereabouts were unknown."
"I feel uneasy and I always feel like something is wrong."
"One day, by some strange coincidence, I returned to the old capital and went to the outskirts of the city where my father was buried. It didn't look strange there, but I soon discovered that the soil covering the surface was obviously new soil. I realized something was wrong.
The army was immediately called in and the graveyard was dug up."
"According to records at the time, more than 700 people were buried in this corpse pit. However, when the soil was dug up, most of the corpses inside had disappeared, and only some burned severed limbs remained."
"Such a discovery made me suddenly alert. I finally understood where the uneasiness that had troubled me from the beginning came from!"
"A person like my father is stubborn and confident. He has always been accustomed to being aloof. How could such a person commit suicide?"
"He knew a long time ago that nothing could be done. In order to continue the plan that the terrible face entrusted to him, he had to fake his death to escape. It is even very possible that he had already decided to do it since he left Lutai.
After making this plan, he chose to hide in the palace in his last days in order to infect the members of the royal family with the dark power one by one, making them the same existence as himself, which would serve as the strength for his comeback."
"After realizing this, I looked through the records of Zhou Jue's death in battle. Like my father, Zhou Jue's body was nowhere to be found. Although it was clearly recorded in the records that he was killed by Donghua Mountain at the last moment.
The Thousand-Handed Emperor Sword pierced his chest, but I, who knew the power of darkness, understood that he was not dead at all, he was just performing a big show with my father."
"They chose to hide in the shadows and continue their grand and evil plans."
When Li Danqing heard this, he inevitably remembered what happened in Huaji City. Zhou Jue was obviously too dead to die, but at this moment he appeared in front of him with good health. This undoubtedly corroborated what Yin Wujiang said.
thing.
"But what does this have to do with my old man? You and I are..." Li Danqing asked with some uncertainty.
He actually believed most of what the old man in front of him said, but he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, because if everything the other person said was true, the Yin Wujiang in front of him would have to be his grandfather.
Although Prince Li is well-informed, it is still difficult for him to adapt to this fact in a short period of time when faced with the sudden addition of his grandfather.
Yin Wujiang obviously understood Li Danqing's troubles. He continued: "Although my father lost the hearts of the people in the end, the relationship between the royal family and the noble families of all parties is intricate in the eight hundred years of the Shang Dynasty. After I gained insight into my father's
After the conspiracy, I also understood that not only the disappeared remnants of the previous dynasty, but also the various Holy Mountain sects may have people controlled by my father."
"I discussed this matter with the Taizu of Wuyang, and finally decided to secretly conduct a thorough investigation of the surviving family members of the previous dynasty to find out those who have connections with my father, and also see if I can find out the plan between my father and Zhou Jue.
what exactly is it."
"This is not an easy task. Wuyang is newly established and has an unstable foundation. Many places still need to rely on the sacred mountains of various noble families. If such a thing is carried out openly, there will be a lot of trouble. After much deliberation, Wu and I
In the end, Taizu Yang decided to carry out the matter in secret."
"This is how the Tianjian Division was founded."
"I also changed my name, hid in the dark, and started investigating these things."
"Thirty years have passed. Although I have made some gains during the investigation, I am still far from getting close to the truth left by my father. But I found..."
"The dark power hidden in my body not only brought me a breakthrough in cultivation, but my body also aged at an alarmingly slow rate. Thirty years later, Taizu was already dying by a thread, and I
He looks like he is in his prime."
"This is not a good thing. It means that not only me, my father and Zhou Jue have absorbed more dark power than me and are more powerful. They will also have a long lifespan. When I think of these two
This immortal monster has been hiding in the dark, carrying out evil plans, and the Taizu of Wuyang and I are worried."
"He is about to die, and we all understand that no matter how kind and virtuous he was in person, how much the people loved him, how much the officials surrendered. But
Once an emperor and a courtier, after his death, people may not be able to understand the rules he set."
"So I showed up again and went to the public under the name of Yin Wujiang. I became the chief commander of Tianjian Division. He gave Tianjian Division high enough power. As long as I can use it properly, it will be enough to ensure that I will succeed in the future.
Within a few decades, we can firmly hold the power of the Tianjian Division."
"And as long as I have the information, no matter what my father and Zhou Jue are planning, I will know it as soon as possible and destroy them."
"After Taizu's death, I tried my best not to participate in the party disputes in the court. I obeyed the new emperor's requests and only focused on ordinary matters concerning my father and Zhou Jue's whereabouts."
"The new emperor obviously has a deep fear of the previous dynasty. He doesn't understand what benevolence means. So when the previous emperor was in power, the policy of thoroughly investigating the remnants of the previous dynasty became his policy of exterminating the previous dynasty. Of course I know
This is wrong, but compared to arguing with the new emperor, which may make him wary of me and thus lose control of the Tianjian Division, I can only endure it and continue to do what I should do."
"This has been a full fifty years. People in the court have come and gone, and the emperor has also changed."
"Your mother was not born by me. All my life, I have focused on finding my father and Zhou Jue. I have long lost interest in the matter of men and women. Tinglan is a remnant of the previous dynasty. They are hiding in a place in southern Xinjiang.
Living in a small mountain village, he didn't care about the outside world and had no contact with his father. However, the government's decrees were there. If an official wanted to catch the survivors of the previous dynasty, even one of them would be a huge achievement.
In this atmosphere, it no longer matters whether they are guilty or not; what matters is that they are the survivors of the previous dynasty."
"In just one night, everyone in the village was slaughtered. I happened to track down clues about my father and thought that the survivors in this village were related to my father. When I arrived, there was only one six-year-old left.
The 20-year-old girl was hiding in the corner and shivering. After some investigation, I found that the two had nothing to do with each other. Logically speaking, the girl was going to die, but I couldn’t bear to take her in after all. What’s more, I
I named her Yin Tinglan."
"At that time, I had been sitting in the court for more than fifty years as the chief minister of the Tianjian Division. No matter whether the emperor or the ministers, they were more afraid of me than respected me. There was a girl beside me. Such a thing, they
Turning one eye open or closing one eye, few people would ask, but I was afraid that someone could find out the clues, so I kept Tinglan in the courtyard most of the time, and rarely let her appear in public view.
"
"Gradually, everyone forgot about this matter. After all, from the perspective of the big shots, maybe Tinglan was just the one who accepted the concubine on a whim. Until one day, a young boy broke into my mansion in a hurry."
Having said this, Yin Wujiang looked at Li Danqing again. There was a rare smile on his face, and his eyes staring at Li Danqing were a little dazed and a little nostalgic.
It seemed that he saw the figure of that boy again in Li Danqing.
Li Danqing calmed down. He looked at the old man in front of him and listened to him recount this century-old story. He knew that the young boy Yin Wujiang talked about was the final protagonist of this story.
