Chapter 5: Hope After Despair
After hesitating for a moment, Ji Fa finally didn't make a move, but he didn't watch Di Xin gather the rout.
"Herald! Make every effort to strangle the defeated troops of Yin Shang and destroy the living forces of the enemy army. ”
"It's good!"
When the words fell, Lu Wangdang immediately passed the order in the flag.
The two watched quietly like this, watching the army besiege and kill Yin Shang's rout, and watching Di Xin finally gather less than a thousand soldiers and retreat to Chaoge.
One is unwilling, the other is bland.
After the end of the battle, Di Xin retreated into the city, and after the gate of Chaoge City was tightly closed, Lu Wang looked back at Ji Fa and said: "In this battle, Ji Dan not only has indelible merits, but his martial arts cultivation and even his cultivation foundation have also been abolished, and the king should be compensated." ”
Hearing this, Ji Fa was silent, he understood the meaning behind Lu Wang's words.
Some are unwilling, and some are humiliated.
But in the end, it turned into a dull and said: "Shang's father said very much, and the "Book of Changes" annotated by my father said: 'Shang Jiu: Kang Long has regrets', 'Ninety-five: Flying Dragon in the sky, Li Jian Lord', my qi number is now 'Ninety-six', which belongs to Kang Long has regrets, since it is destined to fail to reach the 'Ninety-Nine Supreme', it is better to simply give up a number of qi to the fourth brother, and set it in the position of 'Ninety-Five'!" ”
Lu Wang smiled with satisfaction and said, "The king is kind-hearted, presumably Prince Ji Dan will be satisfied with the king's move." ”
He's been planning this moment for a long time.
The immortal path has a long lifespan, how can it succumb to humanity and be on a par with the martial arts?
Originally, the number of humane qi was two, the emperor accounted for ninety-nine, and the rest accounted for one point.
Now he intercepted two points of qi and turned them into civil and military, and Ji Dan and the children of the Shang Dynasty royal family who secretly colluded with Xiqi each divided one point of qi.
As long as a unique concept evolves, the supreme position of humanity will be taken as the pole of the "Ninth Five-Year Plan" from then on.
The Immortal Dao will also justifiably suppress the Martial Dao and transcend humanity.
It is even possible to open another realm on the path of the immortal path that has reached the end.
He'll have a chance to go one step further, too!
Regarding Lu Wang's words, Ji Fa was noncommittal, turned around and walked towards the camp.
In this regard, Lu Wang didn't care, but looked at Chao Gecheng and muttered: "It's fast, it's fast......"
……
In Chaoge City, Di Xin, who had just finished reorganizing the army and boosting his morale, had not even dealt with his injuries, so he walked towards the palace of the king of Xu.
Before he had gone far, he met a palace maid who was in a hurry.
As soon as the palace maid saw Di Xin, she hurriedly greeted her, and said: "The slave and maid pay a visit to the king, Daji Niangniang is about to give birth, and she ......."
Before he finished speaking, Di Xin raised his hand to stop it, and then said without looking back: "This matter is already known to Lone, no need to say more, Lone is now going to see her, and also meet my newborn child." ”
A moment later, Di Xin walked into the palace and walked straight into Daji's bedroom.
Di Xin came to Daji's side softly, and glanced at the wrinkled baby in her arms who was eating, Di Xin couldn't help but raise his hand to caress Daji's pale face, and sighed in a low voice, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Feeling the big hands on his face that were not rough, Daji smiled happily: "It's not hard, you can give birth to an heir for the king, and it's too late for the concubine to be happy, how can you feel hard?" ”
"That's right......"
As if thinking of something, Da Ji looked at Di Xin with a worried face and said, "Our child is a boy, I have already named him Wu Hao, the king won't blame the concubine, right?" ”
Bright? Do you live in the daytime......
Hearing her words, Di Xin was happy, but also a little lost, he sighed: "How come? It's too late for me to feel sorry for you, how can I blame you? It's a pity that I can't give him a stable growth environment, and he faces the destruction of the country and ......his family as soon as he is born."
"The King...... Is it really impossible? As long as you hold on until Fei Lian or Wu Geng comes back......"
Daji looked at Di Xin expectantly, and asked with a fluke mentality.
However, before he finished speaking, Di Xin interrupted a little unbearably: "It's too late!" ”
With tears in her eyes, Daji sighed, "That's it, maybe this is his life!" It's just that...... It's just that he's so young, and he's just been born......"
Speaking of this, Daji could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes and cried in a low voice.
"Yes! Just born......"
Di Xin wiped away her tears while Tida Ji blamed herself.
If it weren't for his gullibility in the royal family, if he wasn't too arrogant and underestimated the potential contained in Xiqi, at this critical moment, he would have left the great trouble of Xiqi and let Wu Geng lead the army to attack Dongyi, the old enemy of the big business, and things would not have fallen back to the point where they are now.
It's really a wrong step, and you lose all the games.
Poor his child has just been born, and before he can enjoy the prosperity of the world, he is about to face death.
As an existence at the peak of his power, he naturally knew the unspoken rules among nobles.
As the defeated side, heirs such as Wu Geng may be able to survive, but the children who are the "demon woman", an excuse for crusade, will inevitably be executed in the name of the same demon, in order to practice the justice of their rebellion.
Even if this child has just been born!
Thinking of this, Di Xin was even more worried.
looked at Daji's face, with a look of despair in worry and pain, and looked at the child's pink and weak figure.
He hesitated, but finally made a decision.
Di Xin got up and walked slowly to the door, holding on to the door, and said without looking back: "Don't worry! I will never let our child have an accident, he has just come to this world, at least, I should let him experience the ups and downs of this turbid world, and see this magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers. ”
With that, he stepped out of the palace.
In the palace, listening to Di Xin's words when he left, Daji's eyes welled up with a gleam, and a glimmer of hope couldn't help but rise in his heart.
"Is it ......?"
With a conjecture in her heart, Daji held the baby in her arms and patted it gently, and whispered, "Perhaps...... Your father can give you a chance to live......"
……
Yin Shang Taimiao, an old man who was thin and thin, wearing a gorgeous loose robe, and sitting in front of the spiritual seat of the ancestors of the Yin Shang Dynasty with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes.
"The King...... Why are you here at this time? ”
The old man frowned, but he got up and waited outside the door.
In just a moment, Di Xin appeared in the old man's sight.
At this time, Di Xin had already taken off his battle armor and changed into the robe he usually wore during the sacrifice, which made the old man who saw Di Xin a little puzzled.
Logically speaking, under normal circumstances, it is not possible to wear robes that can only be worn during sacrifices when they are not sacrificial.
As the high priest of Yin Shang, he can be sure that there have been absolutely no sacrifices recently.
Because if there was, Di Xin would have already informed him to make arrangements.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he still walked up quickly, saluted respectfully, and said, "Meet the king!" ”
