Chapter 296: Make a Dragon
As the imperial capital, Chaoge City is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, every inch of land is gold, and the people who can live here are either rich or expensive, or they have a special skill in their hands, otherwise it is difficult to survive in the imperial capital.
This person has money and naturally begins to like to find something, and the greatest pleasure of ordinary people living in Chaoge is to sit in the inn of the wine shop and then chat.
As soon as the old man spoke, soon, there was a discussion in the entire inn, today's big business is the world of monks, who has more monks in his hands, who is stronger, for a group of civilians gathered around to discuss the so-called family and country affairs, the rich and noble people or monks who passed by also laughed when they saw it, and they didn't care, these ordinary people, even if they broke the sky, they couldn't change anything, besides, they sometimes, they also like to listen to these people talk nonsense, just as a picture.
"Alas, the family is better, the most important thing is Tianmen, although Tianmen did not directly intervene in the government, but who doesn't know, Tianmen's words are often more effective than the king's words. The young man sitting next to the old man sighed softly, his face sad.
"The king is different from the kings of the previous dynasties, he really thinks about us, but unfortunately this time he released 300,000 slaves from Liancheng Mountain, and directly offended the family and Tianmen to death, I don't know what these people will do to the king......" The middle-aged man opposite the old man also looked worried.
Then, there were voices one after another, and I couldn't tell who it was.
"The king will be fine, the king has the fortune of the country, even if Tianmen and the family cover the sky with one hand, don't want to hurt the king. ”
"By the way, have you ever heard about the national fortune and the dragon vein?"
"Oh? ”
"I heard before that our Dashang was the first country to be established, and the immortals in the sky gave the Dashang national fortune in order to reward us, which can suppress all evils, and also gave the dragon vein, I heard that the dragon vein is closely related to the royal bloodline, and has the effect of protection, if the ordinary monk dares to do it directly to the king, he will definitely be thundered by the sky. ”
"Moreover, there are also rumors that the reason why Tianmen did not directly intervene in the government is because of the scruples of the national fortune and the dragon vein, the king has the protection of the dragon vein, and they dare not do anything to the king, so they try their best to do other ways, and I don't know what evil art was used, so that the kings of our Great Shang Dynasty have been unable to cultivate, although there is no worry about their lives, but because they can't cultivate, there will be a death after all, so that each generation continues to change kings, and the male lord cannot be born, and Tianmen can always secretly control the entire Great Shang ......"
"When each new generation of monarchs ascends the throne, Tianmen will look for singing, dancing and fun everywhere in the world, and continue to dedicate to the new monarch, so that the new monarch is addicted to it and has no intention of dealing with the ...... of the court and politics."
The whole inn was quiet, quietly listening to the man say this, the man obviously also noticed that something was wrong, he saw that everyone was looking at him, and immediately got up and said: "Sorry everyone, I talked too much, I have something to do today, so I will leave first......"
After the man finished speaking, he rushed to leave, leaving everyone who was still silent in the man's words just now.
Then, the people got up one after another, and dispersed one by one, and when they returned, they spread the word, and soon the whole song spread everywhere, and even began to spread out.
......
In the Chaoge City, in the palace of the Son of Heaven, the young Di Xin stood in the back garden, looking at the clear water of the pond.
The fish in the pond kept swimming, a peach branch branched and reflected in the pond, a few petals fell, and the fish reflected around the branch, churning happily.
Fei Zhong walked slowly from behind, looked at the tall figure standing by the pool, bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "King, the rumors we spread in Chaoge City have worked. ”
Di Xin turned around, he was burly, it was caused by his perennial martial arts, but unlike those kings who were obsessed with beauty in the past, he was an ambitious person, looking at Fei Zhong who he had pulled up with one hand, Di Xin's serious face showed a smile: "I am very relieved that this matter will be left to you." ”
After hearing this, Fei Zhong bowed down again: "Thank you for the king's trust, the minister is grateful, and there is nothing to repay!"
Di Xin raised his hand and waved it in the void: "No need to be polite, there are no outsiders here, you and I are friends in private just like we were in my mansion back then." ”
Fei Zhong smiled gratefully, still respectful.
Di Xin no longer persuaded him, turned around again, looked at the ripples on the surface of the pool, and sighed: "This time I was surprised, I released 300,000 slaves from Liancheng Mountain, Tianmen and the family will definitely react, next time I want to do this, it will be difficult......"
Fei Zhong sighed and said: "The king's destiny is returned, the great merchant has the blessing of the national fortune, and the king has the blessing of the dragon vein, so he will be able to sweep away the universe and eliminate the tumor of the family in the future." ”
Di Xin listened to Fei Zhong's words of encouragement expressionlessly, his eyes were always staring at the fish in the pond, looking at the peach branches that were constantly churning, as if he wanted to touch the peach tree branches that showed his head, tried again and again, failed again and again, he seemed to see himself in his heart, hiding in the depths of his heart, struggling.
"As soon as this incident passes, Tianmen will definitely take precautions against me, the first time can be interpreted as the new monarch ascending the throne, young and immature, wanting to do something big, it can be understood as impulsive, but next time, I'm afraid it won't be easy......" Di Xin finished speaking, coughed lightly, and continued.
"Although the kings of my Great Shang Dynasty are blessed by the dragon vein, and the Heavenly Gate cannot directly assassinate them, they can use other means, such as cutting off the cultivation qualifications of my royal family, so that the people of my royal family will not be able to cultivate forever, father to son, son to grandson, all the same. ”
"It's a pity that they showed a little, they tried their best to calculate, but they didn't expect that I would be blessed by the immortals at the top of the immortals, not only can I cultivate, but my qualifications are even more different from ordinary people. After Di Xin finished speaking, he raised his hand, his palm floated, and a red flame composed of spiritual energy pulsed in the palm of his hand, scorching its brilliance.
When Fei Zhong saw this scene, he was shocked and exclaimed, "Qi refining ninth stage?!"
Qi refining realm, a total of nine sections, one section is the lowest, nine stages are the highest, as long as you step into a section can be regarded as a monk, even so, there are very few monks in the world, Fei Zhong did not expect that in just a few years, his own king actually became an ordinary martial artist and ascended to the sky in one step, becoming the top monk of the ninth stage of qi refining.
Qi refining nine ranks, this level, there are not many in the whole world, the twelve Supreme Elders of Tianmen are said to be of this level, but the twelve elders have closed the death pass, and Tianmen was created by them back then, and now it has been handed over to their disciples and grandchildren to take care of.
"The king is very talented, and his subordinates are very impressed. After Fei Zhong calmed down, he bowed again, his tone was very excited, his own king had reached the ninth stage of qi refining, which could play a vital role in many plans in the future.
Di Xin smiled slightly: "It's not that I am talented, but that the immortal means to reach the sky, but it's a pity that he didn't promise to accept me as a disciple back then......"
Thinking of the top of the immortals, thinking of the young man, dressed in a black robe, standing on the top of the mountain, looking down on the world, with a gentle smile, but cold, with light in his eyes, and seeing all beings in the world as ants, that is the immortal, the immortal who is high above.
That figure has always stayed in the depths of Di Xin's mind, and it will never be gone, and his biggest regret is that he didn't succeed in apprenticeship back then, maybe the immortals thought he was too stupid......
"Your Majesty, it's time for the Emperor. Fei Zhong looked at Di Xin, who was out of his mind, and reminded him that the next early dynasty was the main event.
Hearing this, Di Xin also came back to his senses, his eyes were firm again, his face was cold, and he snorted coldly: "Let's go, let me see, what means these ghosts and ghosts have." ”
After finishing speaking, Di Xin was in front and Fei Zhong was behind, heading towards the palace, the edge of the pond where no one was guarding, the fish that had been persevering and jumping constantly finally soared into the sky and bit the peach blossom branch that was outcropping.
......
The clouds and mist come and go, all ethereal and unpredictable.
Between the clouds and mist, Su Heng and Hongjun were silently watching everything.
"Emperor, this Emperor Xin is very obsessed with you, and it seems that he has been entangled in the fact that you did not accept him as an apprentice back then. Hongjun pinched his beard and laughed in the back, when Su Heng pointed to Di Xin's matter, he knew that the entire Shenzhou belonged to this emperor, he could do whatever he wanted, and he wouldn't care.
Su Heng hummed lightly: "Back then, I just looked at the kid and clicked it casually, but I didn't expect him to remember it now." ”
Hongjun smiled: "This Great Shang Imperial Family has not been able to cultivate for generations, but in the Di Xin generation, because of your fingers, he has changed his fate, he can cultivate, and his speed and qualifications are different from ordinary people, so he is naturally impressed." ”
Su Heng nodded, the reason why the royal family of Dashang couldn't cultivate, he had more or less guessed some, it was all some conflict of interests, it was the struggle between the royal family and the family, he wouldn't care about this, when he pointed out Di Xin, he just had a good sense of that kid, and he just pointed at it, and now that the battle between the royal family and the family has started again, he won't intervene directly, just be a happy one.
"Let's take a look at it again. Su Heng replied to Hongjun, and Hongjun stopped interjecting after hearing it, so he quieted down, and the two of them stood among the clouds and continued to watch.
......
Song of the court, above the palace, the ministers on both sides stood with each other, each talking about it, and with the arrival of a king, the ministers immediately quieted down.
Di Xin was dressed in a black court robe, sat down with a majestic face, he glanced at the ministers below, and finally his gaze stayed on the leader of the ministers on the left, Geng Qiusheng.
Geng Qiusheng, it is when the door is placed in the representative of the big business, Tianmen does not interfere in the government on the bright side, but has always sent Geng Qiusheng to supervise the world, and the spirit stones handed over every year are also collected by him, and he rarely comes to the court on weekdays, this time, because of the 300,000 slaves in Liancheng Mountain, he was personally present.
Seeing Geng Qiusheng, the ministers present could guess that this time the gate of heaven was menacing, and I was afraid that they would give the king a dismount.
"The king, Weichen has a performance. Unexpectedly, Geng Qiusheng didn't say a word, and it was Bigan, the head of the ministers on the right, who was also Di Xin's imperial uncle.
Di Xin glanced at Bigan indifferently, and squeezed out a smile on his face: "Uncle Huang, please speak." ”
Weaker than Ganwen, looking like a scholar, looking weak, but in good spirits, his eyes were bright, he walked out of the column, looked directly at Di Xin, and said: "King, many of the 300,000 slaves in Liancheng Mountain are guilty of crimes, and now that the king has released these 300,000 slaves, it will definitely make the world turbulent, and the people will not be able to make a living, and the minister implores the king to issue an edict to recall these 300,000 slaves, and those who violate it will be killed!"
As soon as Bigan said this, the entire court instantly quieted down, silent, anyone can say this, Tianmen can say it, the family can say it, and the courtiers can also say it, but Bigan is the emperor's uncle of Di Xin, and when he said this, it was undoubtedly blatant to tell the people of the world that I Bigan and Di Xin are opposites.
Di Xin was also stunned, he didn't expect that Bi Gan, who had been holding back, would tear his face with himself in public like this time, he was angry, and he felt a little sad in his heart, this throne is really so that people can abandon everything......
Putting away his thoughts, Di Xin's eyes were cold, and he also looked directly at Bigan: "But according to King Lone's understanding, these so-called people who wear sin are all ordinary farmers who have been framed and framed, and among them, countless people have been ruined, their wives have been separated, and they have been reduced to slaves, and they themselves are the biggest victims, but now you have come to tell King Lone that they are people who wear crimes?"
After hearing this, Bigan immediately said: "King, you just listened to some one-sided words, these guilty people know that the king is young and benevolent, so they have deceived the king, these people should be killed!"
Uncle Bigan, who has always been relatively weak in everyone's impression, is unusually this time, his tone has become very irritable, and his words are extremely sharp, and the ministers have seen some clues.
Di Xin thought that it would be Tianmen and the representative of the family in the court, but he never thought that it would be his imperial uncle Bigan.
"The ministers and the prime minister beg the king to recall the 300,000 slaves. ”
Then, most of the ministers knelt down and seconded the words of Bigan, most of these ministers are in important positions and maintain the operation of the country, and now the ministers are kneeling, threatening and with obvious intentions.
Seeing this scene, Di Xin sighed lightly, his background is still too shallow after all, over the years, he has been secretly developing the power of the monk, but in the court, he has not been able to intervene.
Is it really necessary to compromise?
Di Xin was suddenly a little confused, he felt the horror of weakness, even if he was the king of the Great Shang, what could he do? Without ability, he still couldn't do what he wanted to do, even if that thing was right, but others said that you were wrong, then you could only be wrong.
Di Xin finally understood the sadness and helplessness of the previous emperors, without his own strength, he could only let the mermaids and slaughter others; those who were determined were okay and could taste their courage while those who were weak could only die in drunken dreams like the kings of the past......
"Enough! Do you still have a king in your eyes?"
A shout suddenly sounded in the court, and it was Geng Qiusheng who spoke.
Geng Qiusheng, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, opened his eyes, his gaze swept over the ministers, no one dared to look at him, Geng Qiusheng was dressed in a scholar's robe, but the momentum he showed was more like the king of Dashang than Di Xin.
Geng Qiusheng stood up, looked at the kneeling ministers, and said: "The king is still young, and he has been deceived by traitors, as courtiers, you should be more discouraged, not like now! What are you doing? Are you forcing the palace?"
Geng Qiusheng's voice was very loud, spread all over the court, after he finished speaking, he looked at Di Xin again, and said with a smile: "The king, the courtiers also care about the king, so they have this move, and they are a little impulsive, I hope the king can understand, the king, you have just ascended the throne, many things, many ideas, are not too mature, if you have ideas in the future, you can put them forward with the ministers, make decisions, don't be too reckless like this time." ”
After Geng Qiusheng finished speaking, he turned around again, looked at the ministers, and said, "Why are you still kneeling, do you want the king to invite you to get up one by one?"
With Geng Qiusheng's words, the ministers got up one after another and stood back in their places, as if nothing had happened, even Bigan stood up slowly.
Seeing everything, Di Xin secretly clenched his fists, full of anger, but there was nowhere to vent, he kept telling himself in his heart, endure!
Geng Qiusheng didn't care about the anger in Di Xin's eyes, he smiled and said: "Okay, this time the king is impulsive, but since it has been done, then forget it, after all, the edict to recall will damage the majesty of the king, so let this matter go." ”
After speaking, Geng Qiusheng paused, and said: "The king, Queen Jiang has no queen, can not give birth to an heir, the monarch has no queen, will disturb the root of the country, Jizhou Housu has a daughter, named Daji, this girl's national color and fragrance, now has been sent to the queen's harem, hoping to give birth to children for the king, with the heart of the ministers." ”
Geng Qiusheng is like an elder, he is doing everything for the younger generation, before and after, big and small, all of them are done for Di Xin.
Di Xin was silent, there was only one word of forbearance in his heart, when the time came, he would kill Geng Qiusheng's old thief, destroy Tianmen, and destroy the family!
The lord humiliated the ministers to death, Di Xin was silent and endured, but You Hun couldn't bear it, he and Fei Zhong were Di Xin's right-hand men, seeing Di Xin being humiliated in front of the ministers, how could there be a trace of the emperor's demeanor, he felt that he had to stand up, more or less to say something, so he stood up and said: "The king has the protection of the dragon vein, when the time comes, there will be an heir in the future, Mr. Geng acted like this, it was too much." ”
You Hun's words immediately caused a slight laugh in the court, although the sound was not loud, but Di Xin's ears were very good, and the laughter was very harsh.
Geng Qiusheng also held back a smile, this dragon vein does have the effect of protection, but it is only a simple protection, since the kings of the past dynasties, there has never been a record of relying on the dragon vein to give birth to heirs.
Thinking of this, Geng Qiusheng said: "Lord You is too exaggerated, the dragon vein is said, there is no trace, but it is just made up by the world, if there is really a dragon vein, then why has the dragon vein celestial phenomenon not appeared since so many generations of kings of my great business?"
Most of the monks in the world know about the national fortune and the dragon vein, and the heavenly gate knows it clearly, but the world is ignorant, and the ordinary people don't know much, so he wants to take advantage of this to reduce the influence of the dragon vein, and it is best to make the people of the world no longer believe that the king of the Great Shang has the protection of the dragon vein, so that they feel that these are just apocryphal.
Geng Qiusheng's words immediately made You Hun speechless, indeed, there have been so many generations of kings of Dashang, but there has never been a dragon vein manifestation, rumors say that the king has the protection of the dragon vein, but it is true that no one has ever seen the signs of this dragon vein manifestation, if it were not for being a courtier, he could indeed feel the breath of the dragon vein, I am afraid that even he himself would not believe it......
At this time, among the clouds, Su Heng and Hongjun were paying attention to everything.
Su Heng listened to all the words in the court, and looking at the laughter in the hall, he suddenly had a bad heart......
"Dragons...... It's so simple, if you don't have it, make one, isn't that coming......"
Su Heng smiled and pointed towards Chaoge, and suddenly, the sky above Chaoge was surging, countless clouds gathered together, intertwined with each other, constantly changing, and in the clouds, there was also the sound of a dragon's groan.
Such a big movement immediately attracted the ministers in the court of Chaoge, they raised their heads stupidly, looked at the big roof of the court hall that was torn off, and looked at the white clouds that were blowing in the wind and across the sky, they were dumbfounded......
......
PS: I have something to do today, I changed it in advance, and finally asked for a ticket
