Shang Palace, Great King Palace.
Before he knew it, Di Xin was no longer young. Although he was still in his prime, sitting on the throne at the moment, his burly figure was already a bit stooped, and his gray hair had grown a lot overnight.
A dozen or so ministers sat behind two rows of low tables, each remaining silent, not daring to say a word.
After an unknown amount of time, Di Xin asked in a hoarse voice:
"Is there a letter?"
Uncle Wang got up and said: "My lord, Xiqi is far away from Chaoge, and it takes a beacon to send a message..."
"Report-"
Suddenly, a general rushed outside the hall, and when he entered the hall, he clasped his fists and shouted:
"Taishi Wenzhong led his army to attack Xiqi City, but the rebels from the north and the south came just in time and besieged Taishi in Xiqi City.
The Grand Master... died in a fierce battle.
The rear army has returned to various passes, respecting the order of the grand master, and doing the defense of the state of Zhou! "
"ah?"
"Why is the Grand Master!"
"Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to lead the army to beg Zhou!"
The faces of the ministers changed drastically, and some of them even panicked, and got up too violently and knocked over the low table.
Di Xin closed his eyes and remained silent. His body trembled a few times, but he didn't lose his composure.
When the hall quieted down, Di Xin opened his mouth, his breath trembling unavoidably.
"Come here, give the advice of the grand master to all your lovers."
Immediately, several soldiers came to the side, and placed the bamboo slips in their arms in front of the ministers one by one.
Dixin said:
"The grand master was trapped in Xiqi, and at the end of his life, he entrusted his dream and proposed six strategies to save the country.
Except for the first strategy, the other five strategies, dear friends, discuss and come up with a charter.
The grand master said, let the blame be attributed to him, how willing is the widow, and what is the crime of the merchant
Chaoge City has been buried for ten days since the death of the grand master. The subjects mourn together, and those who violate it will be executed.
Uncle Wang. "
"Your Majesty," Bigan bowed and saluted.
"You temporarily act as the Grand Master internally, and order Fei Lian to temporarily act as the Grand Master externally. The wars in various places are temporarily suspended, and one or two small countries are pardoned to show the benevolence and righteousness of the great merchants.
Uncle Wang, you have an exquisite heart, you are well-known to businessmen as smart and intelligent, and you are also the most famous person in the royal family today.
You come to correct the widow's mistakes and write a remonstrance list. You can scold the widow's faults and shortcomings at will, and the widow will automatically admit his mistakes. "
Di Xin sighed weakly:
"The grand master said that we did not take the wrong path, but the method we used was wrong, the purpose was unclear, and it was too radical.
If the grand master said these things on weekdays, the widow would not believe it, how could the widow believe it, but the grand master had a dream at the end of his life, what else can the widow say
Come on, everyone carefully savor the words of the grand master, and I will go back to the palace to rest temporarily.
From now on, the great merchant has lost a mainstay, and there are people from other places who want to plot wrongdoing, which will bring disaster to our great merchant.
The grand master has fallen, and the big business cannot fail. "
The king who was still in high spirits a few days ago stood up, stared at the dozen or so important officials below with bloodshot eyes, then sighed, walked to the side of the high platform with his hands behind his back, and walked out of the side hall.
All the ministers saluted together, each held up the bamboo slips in front of them, and carefully looked at the writing on them.
Picking up stars.
Di Xin was trapped in the soft couch, his eyes were a little empty, and he was silent, not knowing what to say.
A beautiful woman came from the side, and a pair of catkins lightly pressed on Di Xin's shoulders, calling softly: "Your Majesty, don't work too hard..."
"My concubine, let me be quiet for a while."
"King..."
"Go down."
"Yes," Daji hurriedly took half a step back, bowed slightly to Di Xin, and left the bedroom with one step and three turns.
Before she went far, she rested on the soft couch by the side of the Huachi, exuding a little sense of immortality, watching Di Xin's figure like a clay sculpture sitting in the empty pavilion.
On the Fengshentai, Wen Zhong stood quietly in the southeast corner, staring at the faint clouds and mist surrounding the universe here, without moving for a long time.
In the distance, there were endless joyous songs in the great hall, and the fairy banquet for Wen Zhong's "cleaning the wind and washing away the dust" had become a part of the demonstration of singing voice and poetic ability of a certain Jiejiao disciple.
Drunken singing, life is geometric.
As for Wen Zhong, the protagonist who was picked up, no one was paying attention at this time, so he was a bit bleak after all.
…
"Sister, what are you thinking?"
On Sanxian Island, in Yunxiao Boudoir, the fairy who was leaning against the window and staring at the jade statue outside the building regained her senses when she heard the words, and turned her head to smile softly at Qiong Xiao who came with fine wine.
Yun Xiao said softly: "I'm thinking about how my elder brother is doing in Fengshentai."
"Is there any difference?"
Qiong Xiao covered her mouth with a chuckle, and teased: "Now, our elder brother must be extremely proud, beheading the sixth saint, why doesn't the heaven offer him as a treasure
It seems that I heard from the elder brother that the eldest brother is now the tenth in the sequence of heaven, and the brother-in-law is just ninth in the sequence of heaven. "
Yun Xiao shook his head with a smile, and while his dress was dancing, he was already behind the low table, staring at the clear wine in a daze again.
Qiong Xiao blinked, without asking any further questions, and took a sip from her wine glass.
After a while, Yun Xiao chuckled, and whispered again:
"Third sister, tell me, is this all arranged by him, or has something changed?"
"this… "
Qiong Xiao couldn't help but tilted her head, and whispered a few times, "It's hard to say, looking at the situation at the time, it seemed that he killed the Sixth Sage in a fit of anger, but brother-in-law was very scheming.
uh-huh!
Foresight and foresight, everything is arranged and arranged, and one step can see nine hundred and ninety-nine steps behind. If it is true that he killed the sixth sage in a fit of anger, this sage would be too easy to kill.
It should have been prepared long ago, and did the twenty-four heavens evolve when they said they evolved
There is also the Dao Sequence of that day. My brother-in-law has been busy for hundreds of years, engaged in the Dragon Clan, and helped the Underworld, and forced the Heavenly Court to its current position, and only then did he get the tenth in the Dao Sequence of Heaven.
The eldest brother's authority in the heaven is only slightly inferior to that of his brother-in-law, and even higher than that of Jizo, who completes the six reincarnation system.
This is not something that can be said and done.
It's just that the eldest brother still foolishly thinks that the brother-in-law is so angry that he becomes a brother. This must be the brother-in-law's plan. "
Yun Xiao glanced at Qiong Xiao with a bit of reproach, and said seriously: "Shoudu is planning so many things to save elder brother."
"Yes, yes, my little sister said something wrong."
Qiong Xiao's beautiful eyes turned into crescent crescents when she smiled, "Sister, you haven't married yet, so you won't let your sister say that he is not.
Alas, all sisterhood is fake, and the company of so many societies is also fake. "
Yun Xiao couldn't say anything for a while, but felt that what his sister said made sense, he had indeed neglected the two younger sisters, and all his heart was concerned about the fairy god in the sky.
"This is my sister's fault," Yun Xiao sighed softly, "but my sister is a little helpless about it, the word love is sour and bitter, but there are many wonderful things about it.
If you can find someone you like in the future, you can experience it. "
Qiong Xiao made a grimace and complained: "Sister, you are too high-key, how can we find someone we like.
Brother-in-law is such a strange person, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a second one. "
"He's not really a weirdo."
Yun Xiao thought about it carefully, with sly eyes and a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes revealed a little gratification and joy, obviously he was born with great ability, but at this moment, his heart fell into Yun Shen's unknown place.
"He just had some ideas that were different, some ideas that were outrageous.
The truth he believes in makes me think carefully, and I can always get something. "
While speaking, Yun Xiao picked up the wine glass with slender fingers, took a sip on his lips, and said softly: "At this time, I just want to wait for the catastrophe to be over, to be able to be with him, and not to have to endure such invisibility anymore." of distress."
Qiong Xiao: ...
My sister is already here, almost hopeless.
"I don't know how the catastrophe will work next," Qiong Xiao looked at the clouds outside the window, "I always feel that this catastrophe is different from what we thought.
Although the world is full of chills, there is a lot less evil spirit, and it is only limited to us and Chanjiao.
The great catastrophe in ancient times and ancient times is scary. The mountains and plains are full of creatures, and they are indistinguishable. The world may be broken at any time. "
Yun Xiao said: "But any death or injury is not a good thing, so don't look forward to any big scenes."
"Oh," Qiong Xiao agreed, resting her elbows on the low table, staring sideways at the window in a daze.
…
Those countermeasures can help the Shang country, and how long can they help the Shang country
It was difficult for Li Changshou to make a judgment.
He actually lied to Wen Zhong a little bit, coaxing him that if the situation changes today, he needs the king of Shang to resist the destiny for a while longer.
actually…
Beheading the sixth sage caused the ebb of the power of the living beings in the world, and the power of the catastrophe dissipated a lot. The attitudes of the two sects towards the catastrophe have changed.
Although the change of kingship in the secular world of Nanzhou is still extremely important to the fate of heaven and earth, it has no weight in the game between Li Changshou and Daozu.
The reason why Li Changshou made the move was simply to see how Tiandao and Daozu broke the game, so as to deepen their understanding of Tiandao and Daozu, and it would be good to increase the odds of winning.
Interpretation and convergence, this matter really makes people a little unsure how to start.
The theory is full, and the action is very skinny.
The difficulty lies in how to get the second and third uncles to accept their ideas and spread them to the two teachings of explaining and cutting.
Daozu will definitely not sit idly by and put pressure on and divide the Taoist sect through various channels.
This is the biggest problem I am facing right now.
In the thatched cottage by the lake, Li Changshou put his hands in his long hair, staring at the dozens of jade talismans in front of him, arranging the jade talismans into a snake shape for a while, and a 'building block jade house' for a while.
No matter how he thinks, if he wants to complete the fusion of interpretation and interception, he must first get rid of the Dao ancestor factor.
That is to say, the Taoist ancestor must be obliterated before the interpretation and interception of teaching can be fished out of the catastrophe.
This difficulty is also too high.
Is Daozu the sixth sage? Being able to be slapped a few times by his teacher at will almost fell to the holy place.
The key is…
He was the same as when Blue Star played games in his previous life. If you want to fight this big monster, you must at least show the blood bar of the big monster, right
It's one thing to be able to fight but not to fight. Now Daozu is in harmony with the way of heaven, and Daozu is the way of heaven.
I can't kill Zixiao Palace, so I shouted:
'Master Zu, show your blood! '
It is estimated that Taoist ancestor directly condensed the power of heaven and earth, even if he couldn't kill the "fleeing one", he could still make himself paralyzed, so he found a dark and cold corner to plug in.
The reason why Daozu didn't deal with him all the time, actually had other plans, which involved the deepest level of game between them.
Li Changshou flicked his fingers, and the jade talismans in front of him were scattered on the table, and he fiddled with them at will.
According to the current way of thinking, the fusion of interpretation and interception must occur after the catastrophe, and become an important means to preserve the luck and teachings of the Taoist sect, so that the concept of Taoism will not dissipate in the world.
That is the content of the next stage of the game.
stage
Yes, Li Changshou divided the game with Heaven into four stages.
The first stage is the stage of accumulating energy, which started at the beginning of the Great Tribulation of the Conferred Gods, when Master Qi Yuan died.
At that time, I needed strength, and I needed enough Dao realm to break through the many secrets of heaven and earth, the way of heaven, and the ancestors of Dao, perfect my own struggle program, formulate follow-up plans and various backup plans.
The second stage is the period of forbearance, starting from the conquest of the Kunpeng Ark by oneself.
At that time, I didn't dare to mention such a thing as Anti-Tian, and I didn't even think about it. I focused on improving my strength and secretly accepting the legacy of Senior Lang.
The third stage, that is, the period of tactical confusion, started when Nezha was arranged by himself.
At that time, after absorbing the variables of Yang Jian and Nezha, Li Changshou had become the biggest variable.
Anyway, true and false, false and true.
At this stage, Li Changshou inevitably confronted Tiandao, but tried his best to confuse Tiandao.
At this moment, we are in the late stage of the tactical confusion period.
Li Changshou has basically determined that in another five to ten years, the Great Tribulation of Conferred Gods will be fully concluded, and there will inevitably be a battle of saints, and he will have to face the way of heaven and enter the fourth stage.
A moderate counterattack after careful consideration and comprehensive analysis.
What will Daozu do next
In fact, Daozu had nothing to do. Just like Li Changshou at this time, their respective layouts had been completed, and they waited for the results to come out, and then directed the results in a direction that was beneficial to him.
Wait, then.
Daozu doesn't move, so he doesn't move.
As long as Daozu moves, his chances of winning will be increased by at least 0.10%.
So in the next few years, Li Changshou lived quite leisurely, and it was also the years when he was the most active.
He would go to the Moon Palace to teach Chang'e how to dance, and would drink and have fun with old officials like Mugong and Yuelao.
He will go to Lingxiao Hall to listen to the court meeting, and he will stand in the first place under the high platform, scaring some old officials who are a little trembling when they speak.
He trained a team, handed over the refining method of the 'live' bronze mirror to the Heavenly Court, and by the way set the rules and regulations for the 'green live'.
He cared about the Queen Mother's body, and sent a few pregnancy elixir from the old gentleman, so that His Majesty the Jade Emperor could gather seven dragon balls, ah bah, seven fairies as soon as possible.
He will also go to Nanzhou for a walk, wandering in the mundane land for half a day, and resting in the mountains and rivers for a while.
He even took Ling'e to visit Fang Town twice, and told Ling'e earnestly that in the future, he might not have a chance to come to this kind of place for fun.
Of course, the place he visited the most was Fengshentai, which turned Fengshentai into a training institution for immortals integrating teaching, entertainment, eating, drinking and having fun.
Although most of them are drinking and chatting with Zhao Gongming, they are looking forward to how cute the two little guys will be after the Virgin of the Golden Spirit gives birth.
However, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit wants to give birth after the catastrophe.
Innate power is so wonderful, you don't have to follow the rules of mortals, the longer the child is conceived in your body, the higher the starting point of its birth will be.
Can't compare, can't compare, can't afford to provoke.
Li Changshou didn't observe the changes in the Nanzhou Merchant Kingdom carefully, and probably took a few glances to understand the meaning.
The few strategies he gave Wen Zhong, Wen Zhong recounted them to Di Xin according to the scriptures.
Wen Zhong's death touched Di Xin a lot, and made Di Xin intuitively bear the pressure from gods on mortals.
There is also a 'traitor from Notre Dame Palace' beside Di Xin.
The deeper the relationship between him and Daji, the more obedient Daji was to him, and even said things such as elucidating teachings, cutting off teachings, catastrophe of immortals, etc., which should not be said to ordinary people.
Di Xin was depressed for several months, but when he promulgated a series of new policies, his spirit was filled again.
The princes of all walks of life did not pay much attention to this new policy at first, and most of them thought that the Shang country was in decline, and Wen Zhong's death was a precursor to the decline of the Shang country.
In the New Deal, Emperor Xin abolished more than a dozen tortures, weakened implicated matters, and strengthened the detailed rules of punishment and law.
Reduce part of the tax, and give some financial incentives to merchants who voluntarily free slaves.
Establish a military merit system and a people's medal system, and give corresponding rewards to merchants who do good, eliminate evil, and be loyal and filial—the people of the Shang Kingdom.
If a slave rescues a merchant, the slave is freed.
Slaves who had grown grain for ten consecutive years before could obtain a piece of land in a remote area.
For old and weak businessmen, regular condolences...
etc.
While implementing the New Deal, Di Xin also posted notices to the outside world, stating the purpose of his series of measures—to inherit the ambitions of his ancestors and establish a brand new big business.
The old has something to rely on, the young has something to rely on, emphasizing benevolence and righteousness, emphasizing virtue, setting rules, and drawing circles.
Di Xin also said these words at the court meeting:
[Since the great merchants have conquered the princes once, they can conquer the princes for the second time.]
Di Xin completely gave up trying to win over the rebel princes, deployed troops to guard various places, and concentrated superior troops to solve the biggest scourge of the Jiang family in the east first.
In this way, in just a few years, the situation of Dashang unexpectedly stabilized again.
The opposition to Emperor Xin in Chaoge City became weaker and weaker. All the veterans began to think about the way to survive. Merchants became more and more enthusiastic to join the merchant army, and food and grass from all over the country were continuously transported to the border.
In contrast, the Zhou State united with the princes, gathered the troops of the princes, and held the first military parade in the secular world of the human race in the land of Mengjin. Hundreds of princes were summoned, and the army lasted forever.
All the feudal lords formed an alliance based on blood, respected Ji Fa together, and Ji Fa proclaimed King Wu, and set their sights on the most affluent business land.
Behind it is the constant help of Chanjiao, and even many princes chose to join the Zhou State array after being persuaded by Chanjiao Immortal.
Dixin New Deal;
Mengjin Association.
However, in the past few years, the ordinary human race has been completely divided into two camps, and Di Xin's side still holds the upper hand.
Similarly, because of the change of strategy of Jiejiao, the support for business has been greatly reduced. In the past few years, only a dozen immortals have died fighting between Jiejiao and Chanjiao, and Fengshentai has not made any progress.
How will Heaven act
Which method will Daozu use to end the Great Tribulation of Conferred Gods
Li Changshou was also a little curious in his heart.
On this day, he came out from the Mugongxian mansion on a cloud and returned to his Taibai Palace and Xiaoqiong Peak. As soon as he stepped into the gate of the Taibai Palace, Li Changshou suddenly felt a wave of Taoism slipping from the nine heavens, and went straight to the palace. Little Qiongfeng falls.
Glaring, Li Changshou's figure flashed out with a swish.
This extremely obscure dao rhyme!
This mysterious and incomparable breath!
There are also strange ripples appearing in Qiankun Tiandi!
Li Changshou flickered several times, rushed into the big formation he had set up, rushed into the formation outside the alchemy room, and killed the [lost? ] A figure appeared in front of the wooden sign, frowning and looking at the 'reception room' in the forest ahead.
A burly Taoist stood in front of the wooden sign, carefully studying the writing on the wooden sign.
Toga, long hair, hoops...
In the thatched cottage, Ling'e was trapped by the chaotic clock;
In the spirit beast circle and the lake, those trembling spirit beasts and spirit fish...
Li Changshou quickly adjusted his expression, took a few steps forward, and said loudly:
"Master Patriarch, why didn't you tell the disciple in advance when you came, so that the disciple can clean and tidy everywhere."
