Chapter 39 Ji Chang Becomes King
As soon as Ji Chang said this, all the ministers talked about it, and Bo Yi Kao was the first to stand up and advise: "Father, the king of Xuan suddenly summoned, must have bad intentions, the last time he summoned his father, causing his father to be trapped in the palace for seven years, fortunately with the blessing of God, my father can return to Xiqi safely, if I go to the court again this time, I am afraid that my father will be worried about his life."

As soon as Bo Yi Kao finished speaking, Ji Fa continued: "Father, now the king of Zhou is mediocre, Yin Shang has been declining, there are many rebels among the princes of the world, and my Xiqi is growing stronger and stronger under the governance of my father. ”
Hearing the words of Bo Yi Kao and Ji Fa, Ji Chang naturally understood the key, but the king is the king, and if the king does not obey the king's order, he is a traitor, Ji Chang has been a minister of the great Shang since the father of the king, Di Yi, is alive, but if he wants to rebel against Yin Shang, he really has some resistance in his heart, so although he understands the key, it is still difficult for him to choose, so he convened the ministers to discuss to see if there can be the best of both worlds.
Shen Gongbao is good at observing words and feelings, seeing the hesitation in Ji Chang's expression, after a little thought, he naturally understood the key, so he came out and said: "Hou Ye, as the two sons said, the king is now cruel and unkind, Hou Ye will go at this time, there will be a worry about his life, Hou Ye can see through life and death, it doesn't hurt to go to the court, Hou Ye is afraid that he is thinking at this time, it is also worth exchanging his own body for the peace of Xiqi." ”
When Ji Chang heard Shen Gongbao's words, his expression changed, obviously he was right, but Shen Gongbao continued: "But Hou Ye has ever thought that the king of Zhou is afraid of Xiqi, not just afraid of Hou Ye, I am afraid that he is more afraid of Xiqi's wealth and strength, even if Hou Ye is willing to sacrifice, I am afraid that King Su may not let Xiqi go, and then take Hou Ye as a hostage, and the army of King Su will attack Xiqi, and the people of Xiqi will be devastated. ”
Shen Gongbao is really smart, Ji Chang is nearly 100 years old, sees through life and death, and is willing to sacrifice for Xiqi, if he is dissuaded by his own safety, it may not have any effect, but if the safety of the people of Xiqi is persuaded, with Ji Chang's benevolence, he will obey the dissuasion, Shen Gongbao also saw this clearly, and then opened his mouth to advise, obviously he hit Ji Chang's weakness.
After Ji Chang heard this, his expression changed greatly, if according to what Shen Gongbao said, then Xiqi will inevitably be destroyed, with the filial piety of Bo Yi Kao and Ji Chang, how can he resist the king regardless of his comfort, Ji Chang looked at Shen Gongbao, and asked a little eagerly: "National teacher, the king's destiny has arrived, if I don't go, it will inevitably lead to the crusade of the king of Zhou's army, and the world will be turbulent at that time, and Xiqi will suffer." ”
After hearing this, Shen Gongbao sighed in his heart, Ji Chang is a mortal in the end, although he is proficient in Zhou Yi gossip, but his vision is still narrower, and now the calamity has risen, although it is a dynasty hegemony on the surface, but in fact it is a four-religion competition, even if the strength of the Shang Dynasty is still higher than that of Xiqi, but Xiqi has the backing of the Interpretation Sect and the Western Sect, and it is not far off, if it really fights, Xiqi may not suffer.
In fact, Shen Gongbao can also see that it is not that Ji Chang is afraid of the king of Zhou, but that he doesn't want to rebel, but unfortunately the things in the world are not everything that he doesn't want to do, he doesn't want to rebel, so let the king force him to rebel, Shen Gongbao opened his mouth and came up with an idea: "Hou Ye only needs to reply to the king of Zhou, saying that he is seriously ill and can't travel tiringly, and he will go to the Song Dynasty to see him when he is well." ”
After Ji Chang heard this, he felt that it was also a good way, so he replied to the king of Zhou according to the words of Shen Gongbao, but unfortunately the matter was not resolved as he imagined, a few months later, Ji Chang received the edict of the crusade of the king of Zhou, and the king directly declared him Ji Chang a traitor, and sent a large army to crusade against Xiqi, Ji Chang's whole person was not good all of a sudden.
Ji Chang worked for the great merchants, but at this age, he was regarded as a traitor by the king of Zhou, how could he feel good in his heart, but now that the matter has come to this, it is useless to be sad, the top priority is how to deal with the crusade of the king of Zhou, Ji Chang can only temporarily hold back the sorrow in his heart, and convene hundreds of civil and military officials to discuss how to protect Xiqi.
In the main hall, Ji Chang looked at the people standing below with a look of loss, and said: "Everyone, because I am annoyed that I did not go to the court, the king of Zhou has already announced that my Xiqi has rebelled, and sent a large army under his command to crusade against my Xiqi, and it will arrive soon, the king of Zhou is menacing, I don't know what good strategy you can have to deal with the enemy?"
Seeing this, Bo Yi said: "Father, the king of Zhou is mediocre, listen to slander, cut me Xiqi, such as the people today are also complaining about him, my father can comply with the mandate of heaven, respect the heavens and call the king, with the power of my Xiqi, unite the princes of the world, and jointly suppress Yin Shang, the child is not talented, and he is willing to lead the army for his father to meet the army of the king of Zhou." ”
As soon as Bo Yi Kao's words came out, Ji Chang's face changed greatly, and now it was just the king of Xuan who announced that he was a traitor, if he called Wang Fa Shang, wouldn't it be a real name of rebellion, and Ji Chang would not agree, so Zhengse said: "Yi Kao, how can such a big rebellious remark be said nonsense, for my father is a minister in the two dynasties of Dashang, how can such a big rebellious act be done." ”
Seeing this, Ji Fa also came out and said: "Father, what the eldest brother said is right, the king is mediocre and has lost the hearts of the people, and the father is supported by the princes and people of the world, and it should be replaced by him, creating a peaceful and prosperous era for the people of the world, so that the people of the world are free from the cruelty of the king of Zhou, since the time of the three emperors and five emperors, the world has always been a benevolent person. ”
Ji Chang saw that even Ji Fa said this, and suddenly his face showed embarrassment, and the ministers heard the words of Bo Yi Kao and Ji Fa, and they also knelt down to second, Ji Chang saw that the ministers were like this, so he became even more embarrassed, Bo Yi Kao and Ji Fa said that it made sense, and he also understood, but the hurdle in his heart could not be crossed.
Jiang Ziya saw Ji Chang hesitating, so he said bluntly: "Hou Ye, what the two sons said is reasonable, when the poor road left Kunlun Mountain, the teacher once said that the heavens, Shang destroyed Zhou Xing, and the sky has a Ming Lord to come to the world, and now the king is mediocre, the world is in chaos, Hou Ye is a rare master in the world, and respecting the king is also the destiny of heaven, please also ask Hou Ye for the sake of the world, and return the world to a peace!"
Seeing this, Shen Gongbao also opened his mouth and said: "Hou Ye, now that my Xiqi country is rich and strong, the soldiers are strong and strong, and I have the help of Western teaching and teaching, it is not impossible to crusade against Yin Shang, and Hou Ye has won the hearts of the people of the world, and he will get the response of the people of the world if he follows the sky. ”
Ji Chang saw that the ministers were so admonished, and the national teacher Shen Gongbao and Prime Minister Jiang Ziya also strongly supported it, and bluntly said that the mandate of heaven was like this, and Ji Chang could not refrain any more, so he opened his mouth and said: "In this case, then the marquis will follow what the secretary said, respect the heavens and call the king, prime minister, and this sacrifice will be arranged by you." After Jiang Ziya heard this, he was overjoyed and took the edict.
In the past three days, all the ceremonial matters have been prepared, on the altar, the table is full of all kinds of superlatives, Ji Chang is wearing a royal robe, lighting incense to sacrifice to the sky, praying to the sky: "The sky is above, the thick earth is proof, the king is mediocre, the queen of the demon is pampered, causing the traitor in the court, I Ji Chang obeys the mandate of heaven, today called the king, the country name is Zhou, do my great Zhou soldiers, crusade against Yin Shang, and return the world to a peace." ”
Under the altar, the ministers knelt down together, chanting Long live the king, and Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya's expressions flashed, although both of them were officials in Xiqi, but after all, they both came with a mission, and now Ji Chang is the king, then there is bound to be an endless war with the king of Zhou, which will also completely open the prelude to the war of the gods, the teachings of the West, the Interception of the Sect and the Human Religion are already in it, and no one can escape.
Ji Chang called the king, established the Zhou Dynasty, is for the Western Zhou, and Ji Chang called himself King Wen of Zhou, once the news came out, the world was shocked, the original crusade against Xiqi, is based on the Xiqi rebellion, now Ji Chang openly called the king, is not sitting on the name of rebellion, for a time, Kyushu is surging, a shocking war will also open the prelude.
