In the north, the capital of the Northern Bohou territory, Chongcheng.

The most prosperous city in the north was now plunging into a terrible calm.

The pedestrians on the streets are much rarer than in the past, and the usual lively streets are completely devoid of the hustle and bustle they should have at this moment, and even the pedestrians dare not speak loudly, only occasionally whispering, and after saying a word or two, they leave separately, not daring to lean together for a long time, so as not to be misunderstood.

They were afraid of the white-armored soldiers who had suddenly spread all over the city.

This is the most elite soldier in the whole world, the forbidden army of the Son of Heaven who annihilated the rebellious Beihai Coalition Army, suppressed the unsubordinated Xibohou, and proved its invincibility with practical actions. Adventure 60

And when they looked at the majestic figure patrolling the streets on the five-colored sacred cow, there was a faint admiration in their eyes.

It has nothing to do with the position, it has nothing to do with victory or defeat, this is the natural worship of the weak to the strong, especially if the strong man is still a generous and benevolent person.

Not long ago, in the battle of the Son of Heaven against the Northern Bohou, Huang Feihu personally went into battle, defeated fifteen generals under the command of the Northern Bohou in a battle, and took advantage of the great victory to attack Chongcheng, and the battle was decided, so powerful, it was so awe-inspiring! And after he attacked Chongcheng, he strongly restrained the soldiers and prevented any looting and killing, which won the hearts of the people and made the people who were already quite dissatisfied with the Northern Bohou Chonghou Tiger begin to turn their hearts to the imperial court.

Of course, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and if you want these people who have obeyed Beibohou for generations to change their positions and throw themselves to Chaoge, Huang Feihu's efforts this time are obviously not enough, but this is indeed a good start - it is precisely because of his efforts that there will still be pedestrians on the streets that should have been untouched after the war, and the people have not hid at home because they are afraid.

It's a pity that the people were so shocked by Huang Feihu's divine might that they hardly dared to look at him, and even if they looked at him, most of them only stayed on his armor, weapons, and mounts, so no one noticed the anxiety and worry on the face of this brave general.

"What is this called! The results of divination are too strange! Huang Feihu, who had inspected the entire Chongcheng, muttered, came to the Chongcheng Palace, which had been turned into a temporary camp, jumped off the sacred cow, and asked the guards, "Your Majesty...... Still arguing with the old priest? ”

The guard was obviously familiar with him, and nodded with a wry smile.

"I really don't understand what's going on...... Obviously, the situation is very good, and it is the best opportunity to show the prestige of the Son of Heaven, but the old priest said something like 'celestial warning' and 'crisis lurking', and asked His Majesty to quickly withdraw the army to protect Chaoge...... Isn't this messing around! ”

He hurried to the council hall, and heard Di Xin's roar from a distance: "Old priest, can you speak with some reason!" We're at war! It's a war! It's ridiculous for you to say 'there is a bad omen' and let us withdraw our troops! ”

"The ability of the old decay is limited, and it is impossible to accurately peep into the destiny of heaven, but the bad omen is obvious, Your Majesty, please look at this turtle shell, this burning pattern is an extremely vicious sign......" An old but full of breath voice chattered endlessly about divination knowledge, and the whole text was incomprehensible words, making people dizzy.

When Huang Feihu walked into the council hall, he saw that the ministers accompanying the army were all full of distress, looking at the two heads of state who were arguing.

In ancient times, divine power and royal power went hand in hand, and Shang Cheng, as a high priest, was not under Di Xin as a king. Although this old man usually doesn't take care of things at all, when he makes up his mind to be stubborn, even Di Xin can't think about it.

Moreover, his reasons are also very tenable - in this era, divination is a very important matter, as the so-called "major affairs of the country, only worship and Rong", if it were not for his request for the issue of war, even Di Xin would not have objected to his opinion.

But the trouble is that the thing that Shang Cheng asked for this time is another item in the "major affairs of the country", and his requirements are completely contrary to the common sense of using soldiers!

Now although the army has broken through Chongcheng, it has not been able to catch the fleeing Chonghou Hu, and if it does not catch the "traitor" thief who can't escape in battle, this war will not be over for a day. And even if Chonghou Hu is captured and the war in the north is ended, the army will go south to help Nanbohou E Chongyu sweep away a few disobedient princes, one to stabilize the situation in the south, and the other to swear the majesty of the Son of Heaven.

These things must be done, otherwise this trip to the army for a few years will only deter Xibohou...... That's a bit too wasteful!

Huang Feihu believes that Shang Cheng must also understand this truth. This old priest is not a powerless literati, he was also a warrior who could slaughter bears and tigers when he was young, and he once worked with Wen Taishi in the army, and he was quite familiar with military affairs, so he should not have said such a ridiculous opinion.

But...... Shang Cheng was a priest after all, and he trusted the results of divination more than military knowledge.

This led to the current predicament - the high priest insisted that the army return to the court immediately according to the results of the divination, so as to ensure safety; The Son of Heaven insisted on continuing to use troops to accomplish the set goals based on military common sense. Adventure 60

The arguments of both sides are completely valid, and the words of either side are upright enough to convince anyone.

So, instead, the two sides quarreled.

After Shang Cheng talked endlessly, seeing that Di Xin was still full of disapproval, he looked very angry, and originally planned to roar, but was persuaded by his old friend Wen Zhong as a peacemaker. But the old gentleman was very stubborn, he had no intention of giving up at all, and instead said that he would continue divination to see where the crisis came from, and even walked away without saluting, leaving only the wry-smiling ministers and the angry Di Xin.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Is that all you guys think about the excitement? After Shang Cheng left, Di Xin blew his beard and glared at him very unhappily, and complained to the ministers, "The old priest's spit has been sprayed on Lone's face!" Look at it! Look at it! - He must not have rinsed his mouth today, it's not an ordinary smell! ”

Listening to the complaint of the Son of Heaven, the ministers bowed their heads one after another to hide their expressions of wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

At this moment, Di Xin, where is there still a little bit of the majesty of the Son of Heaven, is completely a young man who has been criticized by his elders in a daze, but he is not good at attacking.

Although in fact, he is not young, but probably because of the blood of the Xuanniao, his appearance looks much younger than his actual age, standing with Huang Feihu, who is younger than him, but he looks a few years younger than Huang Feihu, in terms of appearance, it is really a bit lacking in majesty.

Not only that, Shang Cheng's age is also a little too big! This old-timer is the younger brother of Shang Rong, the old prime minister who served the emperor of the three dynasties, and he is an old friend of Wen Taishi - Wen Taishi has entered the mountain to cultivate the true inheritance, and his age has already passed a hundred years old, Shang Cheng is a good friend with him, and he is even older than him, even in ancient times when the blood of the gods was still flowing and longevity abounded, this is enough to reach the level of Renrui!

In front of Renrui's old-timers, Di Xin really couldn't put on the posture of the Son of Heaven, so he suffered a lot in the dispute. Especially Shang Cheng was taller than him, and when he spoke, he spat and splashed, spraying his head and face, which made him even more annoyed.

But he really can't think about it, because in this era when myths are still reality, "divination" is indeed an irrefutable justification!

After complaining in vain, Di Xin went back to his study to rest.

On the way, he sighed and complained about it to Cheng Peng and Wende, who were guards.

"When the minister was traveling in the world, he once heard a story." Cheng Peng smiled and said, "A sage who is determined to innovate once said this when others criticized him for doing something wrong——"

"People's words are not enough, ancestors are not enough law, and the destiny of heaven is not enough to fear!"

Di Xin was stunned for a moment, stopped, and repeated these three sentences in a low voice, and his eyes gradually shone up......
