17. Harem Legends

This Yellow River dragon boat is not at all noticeable from the outside, but it is comfortable inside, except that the windows are small. Mr. Ishiji arranged the seven of us in the large cabin at the back. Biyun and Caiyun are two boys in the small cabin in the middle. She herself was stationed in the forward cabin.

There is an entrance to the bilge in the front and rear compartments. Shi Ji warned a few girls: "If you are attacked, Xiao Qian and the five of you will hurry down to the bottom cabin." It's up to us to deal with it. ”

"Teacher," one girl asked, "will we meet those robbers?" ”

"It's hard to say." Shi Ji looked outside, "The front is bounded by the big river, and the right bank belongs to the land of Jizhou." The left bank belongs to the land of Yanzhou. Xianyu from the west, Shanjung from the north and Laiyi from the east often haunt this area. They are now all enemies of the Dayi merchants. ”

Xiao Qian asked: "Why are there so many enemies of Dashang?" ”

Shi Ji said: "Xianyu was originally a Yi family. Seven hundred and fifty years ago, the ancestor Gaozu Wang Hai went to Youyi's trade, and was drunk and was killed by his monarch Mianchen. Four years later, in order to avenge his father, the first monarch went to Jiawei to avenge his father, killed Mianchen, and destroyed the Yi family. Some remnants of the Yi clan fled back to the Yishui River and changed their name to Xianyu. Therefore, it can be said that Xianyu and my big business can be described as a feud. ”

"Shanjung originally lived in the north, and it belongs to the same vein as Lone Bamboo. When Dayi Shang was first established, Guzhu formed an alliance with it to help him conquer the north, and then became enemies with Shanjung. After Laiyi's original Shennong Jiang surname, he originally lived in Maiqiuyi and lived next to the ancestors of our big merchants. Later, with the beginning of the construction of our Great Shang, he was forced to move east and leave his ancestral home. ”

At this point, another girl interjected, "Teacher, it seems that they shouldn't be called robbers. It's that my big business has been bullying them. ”

Shi Ji looked at us, "There is no right or wrong in this world. As the people of the great merchants, of course you should speak for the great merchants. Know that on the battlefield, your enemies will not be merciful to you just because you sympathize with them. If you get caught by them, they will turn you into a slave. ”

Everyone was speechless for a while. Shi Ji turned his head to look out the window and sighed softly. "Who would have thought that less than seven years ago, they were all at peace with my big business. Until the death of Mrs. Kui Jiang changed everything. ”

At this time, a girl asked, "I heard that Mrs. Kui Jiang's death is related to Mrs. Daji." Is it true? ”

Shi Ji looked at her and didn't think so. "Mrs. Kui Jiang was exposed because of her father's rebellion against the Nine Marquis, and she felt shameless to face King Shou and fell to her death. What's more, it was Mrs. Huang Ying who questioned Kui Jiang on behalf of King Shou at that time. What does it have to do with Mrs. Suji? ”

After a pause, she continued: "I'm afraid that soon after Mrs. Kui Jiang's death, Mrs. Su Ji will be canonized as the queen." That's why there are rumors. ”

I sent a messenger to say, "Some people say that Mrs. Daji is a vixen!" ”

Shi Ji smiled, but there was displeasure between his eyebrows. "Nezha, King Shou is your uncle, and Mrs. Suji can be regarded as your aunt no matter what she says. You shouldn't have said that behind her back, should you? What's more, this is Jizhou. Guozhang Suhou's territory, you dare to talk like this! ”

I blushed, "I'm just curious!" ”

At this time, Xiao Qian said: "I heard that the Dongyi Tushan clan, the pure fox clan and the Yousu clan of Mrs. Daji all use the nine-tailed fox as a totem. That's why there is such a saying that Mrs. is the incarnation of the nine-tailed fox, is that true? ”

"Not really." Shi Ji shook his head, "The Pure Fox Totem is indeed a nine-tailed fox. And the Tu Shan totem is the mountain, and the Su totem is the grass, you will see it when you go to Xingyi. ”

"The nine-tailed fox is really an ancient spirit beast that can be summoned. Since Dayu met the nine-tailed fox and married the Tu Shan clan, and Hou Yi married the pure fox clan, the technique of summoning the nine-tailed fox was gradually introduced to the Central Plains from Dongyi. However, for thousands of years, very few women have learned this technique. Lady Daji is the only student of Fuxi-Nuwa Academy who has mastered this technique in the past hundred years. ”

"Teacher Shiji," one girl asked, "do you know Mrs. Daji well?" ”

Shi Ji smiled, "Of course it's familiar!" She is my little junior sister in Fuxi-Nuwa Academy, how can she not be familiar? ”

"Then, Mr. Shiji," I asked, "what is the matter with the Nine Marquis rebellion?" ”

Shi Ji restrained his smile, "The fact that the Nine Marquis conspired against was jointly denounced by the two doctors, Fei Zhong and Fei Lian. Jiuhou is the first of the three princes, and has been in charge of Dongyi and Beidi affairs for many years, and has many contacts with Ghost Fang, Jiang surnamed Laiyi, Fang Yi, and Ying surnamed Xu Yi, etc., and has a close relationship. After the alliance between the East Lebanese Alliance, these parties rebelled one after another. Jiuhou naturally can't escape the blame. ”

"Then just now you said that Mrs. Huang Ying persecuted Kui Jiang ......"

Shi Ji said: "Mrs. Huang Ying was originally after Huang Yi. His brother Huang Feihu is in a high position. His father, Huang Roll, once served as Uncle Fang. Huang Yi was originally the head of Dongyi, and Fei Zhong and Fei Lian were all from the surname Dongyi Ying. When the Nine Marquis Commander-in-Chief Dongyi took good care of the clans surnamed Jiang, and there were many disagreements with the clans surnamed Ying. Although the Huang family did not participate in the denunciation, they were the biggest beneficiaries. ”

"I don't have much contact with Mrs. Huang Ying, so I don't dare to speculate about her character. After the death of the former queen, the position of the middle palace has been vacant for many years. Mrs. Huang Ying was originally the head of the harem, but she has not been able to correct it. ”

"Although Mrs. Daji was favored by King Shou, her father Su Hou also rebelled in his early years. King Shou summoned Marquis Xing and Marquis Li to attack together. At that time, Mrs. Daji was still in the boudoir, and when she heard the news, she confessed to King Shou before the battle. In the end, the Su clan was preserved. ”

Therefore, Mrs. Su Ji could not pose any threat to Mrs. Huang Ying at that time. However, since Kui Jiang entered the palace, King Shou favored him far more than Daji, and soon it was rumored that the king wanted to make him his queen. Even if Huang Huan is tolerant and generous, he will inevitably be jealous. That is, there is no intention of framing, and there is also a motive to fall into the well. ”

Shi Ji sighed slightly, "If Mrs. Kui Jiang could be as forbearant as Mrs. Su Ji at that time, King Shou would have remembered the old feelings, and he might have spared the Nine Marquis from dying." However, his temperament was strong, and he could not bear the persecution of Mrs. Huang Ying and committed suicide. In the end, King Shou ordered the killing of the Nine Marquis. ”

Xiao Qian asked: "It's not that Mrs. Daji is a guilty body, so how can she be the queen?" ”

"The former queen left no heirs. Mrs. Huang Ying also gave birth to a prince many years ago, but died at birth. Since then, there has been no royal bloodline. Although the king had other children, they were all concubines. At the time of the Jiuhou incident, Mrs. Daji was pregnant, and then gave birth to Wang Zisheng. The mother is more expensive than the son, so it is logical to become the queen. ”

"Then Mrs. Huang Ying is not going to be angry?"

Shi Ji smiled, "Although Mrs. Daji is in the middle palace, she has great respect for Mrs. Huang Huan and has always been commensurate with her sister. After all, Mrs. Huang Ying was born in a famous family, and she is not a person who does not know how to advance and retreat. So it's been peaceful. ”

I asked, "Is it true that the Nine Marquis are plotting rebellion?" ”

Shi Ji looked at me, "When Jiuhou was arrested, no one suspected that he had been wronged. Jiuhou has been in power for many years and has made many enemies. Once he lost power, except for the Marquis of E, who helped him exonerate, the government and the opposition said a lot about their crimes. However, soon after, the Hou was also found to have conspired with the Nine Marquis. As a result, the nine marquis were bodied, and the Ehou was bodied. Later, Marquis Xing and dozens of other princes and courtiers were also implicated and killed. For a time, everyone in the government and the opposition was in danger. It wasn't until a year later, when the Beili Incident occurred and Xibo was imprisoned, that the matter came to an end. ”

"Teacher, what's going on with this change in Beili?"

"Xibo Jichang has lived in Xiqiang for a long time, and he has long been disobedient. When his father Ji Li was there, he often overstepped his authority. Six years ago, when Ji Chang returned to the army by defeating the ghost side, he pacified Beili. Li Hou fled into Chaoge. King Shou was concerned about Dongyi's rebellion at that time, and he had no time to take care of it. Later, under Zu Yili's advice, Wen Zhong designed to trap Ji Chang and detain him. ”

"Since the king has killed so many princes, why not kill Xiber?"

"Why doesn't King Shou want to kill him? As Uncle Fang, Ji Chang has governed the land of Xiqiang for more than 40 years, and he has a wide range of contacts in the government and the opposition. And under his rule, it has always been a barrier for Dayi merchants to defend against the invasion of Xirong. The main force of the Shang army has been trapped in the rebellion of Dongyi and Beidi. If the Zhou people rebel, the great merchants will be in the middle of the enemy. And taking it as a quality made the Zhou people dare not act rashly. ”

Shi Ji didn't say any more, and the girls didn't ask again.

Everything Ishiji said was different from what I had known in the past. However, since the history of the Shang Dynasty was written by the Zhou people, it must be extremely devalued. And Shiji has intersected with the Yin Shang royal family for a hundred years, and it is normal for his heart to belong to Yin Shang. But what is the truth?

"Nezha, come to the front cabin!"

Seeing that it was getting late, I put on a short coat in white fur, came to the bow of the boat, and sat down next to Mr. Ishiji.

"Nezha, do you feel the spiritual power around you?"

Along the way, I did feel the fluctuations of spiritual power around me from time to time, but I didn't care. With my current spiritual sense, I can already detect the weak spiritual power of an ordinary person two hundred zhang away, but the consumption is also quite large. At this moment, the spiritual consciousness was completely dispersed, reaching both sides of the Yellow River. In an instant, countless spiritual power lights and shadows poured into his mind at the same time.

Aside from my fellow travelers and the hull itself, more of the light and shadow came from underwater.

"Spirit fish?"

"It's not all spirit fish." "Most of them are just ordinary fish. You must know that most animals are more spiritually powerful than humans. ”

I tried to control a small fish with great spiritual powers, and it did swim over, but it seemed reluctant. As soon as I relaxed, it quickly fled.

A question popped into my mind. "Teacher, can you control a person through spiritual power?"

She looked at me, "It's not easy. Non-living beings have no autonomous consciousness until they develop their minds. And man already has a mind before he has a mind. It's not as easy to control as non-living things. ”

At this moment, a ball of light from the water in the distance greeted him. What is it? When I got closer, I realized that it was a long figure.

"What a beautiful dragon!"

"I'm afraid this is also a prince!"

Press: 1. There are various different and contradictory theories about the relationship between Xianyu and Youyi, Shanrong and Guzhu, as well as the origin of Laiyi. This book is only one of them.

2. The claim that Daji is a nine-tailed fox spirit appeared very late.

3. Huang Huan, although the Huang family is a virtual character in the gods. However, the Huang clan was indeed an important tribe in Dongyi in the Shang Dynasty, and there were important ministers who enjoyed worship in the court. This book sets it as the tribe, and its ancestral surname is recorded as Huang Huan.

4. Watching the section of "Romance of the Gods" where Concubine Huang interrogated Queen Jiang, I suddenly felt weird. After he personally supervised the gouging out of Queen Jiang's eyes and branding her hands, it was unbelievable that he could still put all the blame on Daji's head.

5. Who was born to Wu Geng, there is no record in the history books. There is also controversy as to whether he is the same person as Lu's father and Luzi Sheng, and whether he is the son of the king of Xu. Powerful ass plump and charming body!
