May 1 has not yet arrived, and Dashang, who is also preparing for war, has gradually become a little uneasy.

The matter of starting a war with Xiqi, which is supported by the three religions behind it, is really understood clearly, in fact, only the high-level leaders of the lowest two grades of the big merchants.

But with more and more rumors that the Shang Court was about to start a war with the Three Sects, some waves could not help but rise within the Great Shang.

When Di Yi was there, in order to resist the pressure from Ji Chang, he once thought of Ying Wenzhong's suggestion to introduce some disciples of the sect to become officials.

Later, when he asked Di Xin, he was firmly denied by Di Xin.

The orthodoxy of the human race should not have too much connection with the three religions, but although it is denied, the existence of Wen Zhong is a banner.

Before Emperor Xin ascended the throne, he caused some people from the sect to come to the big business as officials, and some officials sent their heirs to the sect, and then returned after completing their studies.

As a result, many people in the big merchants are disciples of the sect.

Zhang Kui, one of the generals, is all.

However, although he can be regarded as a disciple of the Interception Sect, his feelings for the Interception Sect are not very deep, far less deep than those for the Terrans and the Great Shang, even if he knows the truth, he is just a little lonely, so he doesn't think about it anymore.

Some turmoil arose within the Great Shang Dynasty, mainly caused by those who intercepted the teachings and even expounded the teachings of the people.

It's just a rumor, it's nothing.

But as the movement of troops and generals became bigger and bigger, some generals felt that something was wrong.

What's more, Wen Zhong has been silent for too long!

As a disciple of the Interception Sect, and even now it can be said that the disciple of the Three Sects is the core of the banner in the Great Shang Dynasty, and he is also the first minister of the Great Shang Dynasty.

His words and deeds have influenced countless people.

But I don't know when Wen Zhong became silent, not the kind of silence that speaks less in the court.

It's a kind of silence that can't be explained.

As if he was deliberately downplaying his presence, he went to the army less, did not participate in banquets, and did not speak during deliberations.

That calm and waveless face seems to never change again.

It was not obvious in a short period of time, but by this time, the time was not short, and those rumors, and the fact that Wen Zhong either refused or did not say a word when they visited, made those officials from the three sects have to think more.

The Great Shang and the Three Religions (Interception, Exposition, and Renjiao) may ......

This kind of thinking has made some of these officials breathless.

Seek out officials from the same background and ask other high-ranking officials.

Except for not daring to ask Di Xin directly, most of them did what they could, just to find out what they could understand.

This has also triggered a series of fluctuations.

The Human Emperor Palace, once again received the news that these people had gathered together to discuss, and Di Xin looked at it twice and ignored it.

These fluctuations can be said to have arisen with his connivance, because he wanted to see what would be the choice in the minds of those officials?

He didn't push them, and he didn't want to put any pressure on them, so he indulged them and let them make their own choices after watching what happened.

Including Wen Zhong.

The time of May 1 is fast, just a dozen days, and their time to make a decision is also fast.

......

Time was in a hurry, and on April 21, the second group of people from the three sects of Erzhou arrived in Xiqi, and their strength was about the same as the first batch.

It seems that there are not many real strong people, but this is an indispensable foundation for a force and a country.

Without these people, even if Xiqi seized a large area, how would he occupy and govern it?

Without these people, Xiqi would probably be defeated for a while and would be doomed.

After all, today's Xiqi has no background at all, and there are only so many outstanding courtiers, and the first war may be gone.

And the real powerhouse, the Sanqing disciples will take it.

On 28 April, two more disciples from the sect came to the sect.

Finally, the first of May arrived.

May 1, 1140.

In the Xibohou Mansion, Ji Fa summoned all the ministers to come, and he waited here early with an extremely solemn expression.

One by one Xiqi officials arrived, seeing Ji Fa's face, as well as the solemn atmosphere at this time, and the powerful forces that have entered Xiqi in the past few months.

They knew something big might happen!

After more than 300 officials who should have come came to salute in unison, Ji Fa's eyes swept away, like a sharp sword, and the edge was compelling and majestic like never before, so that many officials were shocked and did not dare to look directly.

"Recently, it has been rumored in Xiqi that Benhou's father has passed away and is related to the human emperor, what do you think of Aiqing?"

Ji Fa's voice sounded, like a thunderbolt, and almost all of the more than 300 officials present changed their expressions.

What a big deal!

Many officials exclaimed in their hearts, and looked at Ji Fa in a daze.

"Master Hou, this matter is pure gossip, please don't believe it, let alone be disrespectful to the emperor. An official immediately stood up and shouted with extreme seriousness.

"The minister seconded the proposal, Hou Ye, this matter must not be taken seriously, and please first Hou Ye will arrest the person who spread this rumor, and the person who killed Hou Ye is Emperor Haotian and Gou Chen, and everyone knows it. Another official stood up and said in a deep voice, with a hint of unconcealed horror on his face.

Hou Ye is crazy!

How dare you say that!

It was Haotian and Gou Chen who killed the first marquis Ji Chang, who doesn't know about the flood now?

Even if there is a relationship, how can you say it?

In the blink of an eye, dozens of officials stood up together, denied it again and again with a sense of panic.

Ji Fa watched silently, there were no emotional fluctuations on his face or eyes, there was just a dead silence.

When the voices of dozens of people fell slightly, and some officials wanted to stand up, they spoke again: "But Ben Hou doesn't believe it, except for Haotian and Gou Chen, it really doesn't matter if the Human Emperor doesn't believe it?"

"Master Hou can't!" Suddenly, these dozens of officials spoke one after another as if they were dead.

Other officials also spoke up to stop it, which, in their opinion, was to put Xiqi to death.

Ji Fa's eyes swept slightly at the three people standing in front of him.

San Yisheng, Taidian, Nangong Shi, the real three old ministers of Xiqi.

The three of them felt that gaze, their bodies stiffened, and there was some helplessness and bitterness in their eyes.

Don't they want to overthrow the big merchants in their hearts?

Of course, after all, that was what they had worked so hard to work for.

But the strength of the Great Shang and the Human Emperor has long since shattered their ideas.

Even Hou Ye (Ji Chang) has no idea, let alone them?

But they knew that they couldn't stop Ji Fa, so it was better to simply fight instead of wasting their strength on internal friction.

What's more, with the support of the three religions, does Xiqi really have no chance?

Gritting his teeth, San Yisheng took the lead in standing up and saluting, and said firmly: "Qi Hou Ye, the minister thinks that what Hou Ye said is very true, the first Hou Ye has passed away, and he must find out clearly, and he must ask the Emperor of the People to understand." ”

After some Xiqi courtiers saw San Yisheng stand up, their eyes showed their expectations, hoping that he could persuade Hou Ye.

I didn't expect it......

Many officials widened their eyes and some fell silent.

The next moment, Tai Ying and Nangong Shi spoke in favor of Ji Fa one after another, which made most of the Xiqi officials completely silent.

Master Hou, and Master San, they are all crazy!

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

At this time, Jiang Ziya spoke after a salute, and immediately after, more than 100 officials such as Shen Gongbao and Guo Jia opened their mouths to second.

Suddenly there was silence in this hall.

Those officials who opposed looked at San Yisheng, Jiang Ziya and others, and weakness rose in their hearts.

Suddenly, an official glared at Jiang Ziya and Shen Gongbao with anger on his face, as if he was about to devour people, and shouted angrily: "Say, what did you say to Hou Ye with clever words? Let Hou Ye do such a thing."

Demon Dao, it's you, if you want me to fall into a place of no return, the old man will die, and you will never be allowed to succeed. ”

The roar like thunder made the atmosphere in the hall even heavier.

Many officials also turned their angry eyes on Jiang Ziya and the others.

Jiang Ziya's faces did not change, as if they didn't hear it.

Ji Fa's face was a little gloomy, and he slapped the case in front of him hard, and said angrily: "Presumptuous, dare to insult the two prime ministers like this?

Do you still have Benhou in your eyes?

Come, ask him to escort me. ”

The two soldiers immediately came to the main hall, and the official was not afraid, he did not resist, but his mouth was non-stop.

"Master Hou, if you do this, can An be worthy of the ancestors of Xiqi in the past dynasties? You are deceived by these two demons, and you will definitely let Xiqi go to a Jedi.

Colleagues, are you just watching?

San Yisheng, Taidian, Nangong Shi, the old man misjudged you. ”

"Hold it down. Ji was angry and shouted majesticly.

The two soldiers immediately escorted the officer who did not resist.

"This matter has been decided, and no one needs to say much. Ji Fa's eyes were blazing, and he glanced at the many officials below, and the majestic aura on his body was rich and powerful that he had never seen before.
