Chapter 220: God List
The famous Jiang Ziya turned out to be the Tang King who established the Shang Dynasty!?
This matter is not only unbelievable for Ying Zheng for a while, but anyone who hears it will feel unbelievable and incomprehensible.
Ji Fa didn't look at Ying Zheng, but sighed to himself, as if he was recalling the past: "Back then, when the prince found the old man, the old man was also your age, but he had not inherited the marquis of his late father, and in the blink of an eye, more than eight hundred years have passed, and those past events seem to be in front of me, and they are vivid."
Ying Zheng understood that Ji Fa saw him and thought of himself back then.
And Ji found that he was there, and he played the role of Jiang Ziya back then.
"Most of the inheritance of the Heavenly Inheritance Lineage is carried out in secret, why did Taigong appear publicly at that time?" Ying Zheng asked puzzled.
Ji Fa came back to his senses from his memories and replied slowly: "This time, although the king of Xuan had no way at that time, the royal family had not declined, and it would take a lot of effort to subvert it, and with the power of Xiqi at that time, it was not enough to respond to it."
"Second, presumably the Taigong can't bear to watch his descendants being slaughtered, and in this way, the Dashang royal family is preserved."
"Thirdly, Taigong wants to leave a loyal enough prince for the Great Zhou as a prince of the Qi State, so that it will be easier for future generations to control the changes in the country."
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment before saying, "So, Lü Buwei is the bloodline of a prince left by Taigong, and he is actually a descendant of the royal family of Dashang?"
Ji Fa nodded and said, "Strictly speaking, so are you."
Indeed, if you follow the order of Yanzi and Huangsun, Shang and Qin are considered to belong to the same branch, and Xia and Zhou are considered to be in the same lineage.
Ying Zheng slowly bowed his head, and understood a general idea, but then shook his head again, and said: "The juniors still don't understand, whether it is the Taigong or the seniors, whether they are assisting explicitly or secretly, or overturning the rule of their own descendants with their own hands, is this the fate of the Heavenly Inheritance, and the juniors, will you do this in the future?"
"Hahaha......" Ji Fa laughed, "The identity of the so-called Heavenly Inheritor is not only as simple as the leader of the Huaxia clan, but also bears the responsibility and obligation of saving the common people on his shoulders."
"Just like right now, if you go to the Nine Shadows this time to save the common people, and you have to stay in those Nine Shadows for decades to restore the natural source power, then can you be willing to give up everything you have now and hand over the throne to future generations?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, he had never thought about this question.
"Don't worry, I'll talk about it after I think about it, but I have to say what I think about it." Ji Fa said.
Ying Zheng pondered for a long time, and finally sighed, and said admittedly: "To be honest, the younger generation is still young, and naturally has a greedy heart for the fame and fortune of the world, but if the destiny is really returned, only the younger generation can save the common people from fire and water, then even if you give up the glory, what does it matter, and hand over the country to future generations, why not?"
Ying Zheng's words were heroic, Ji Fa could see that what he said was from the bottom of his heart and extremely sincere.
"Hehe, good boy, we are in the same vein, it should be like this, back then, Dayu did not enter the house three times because of the water control, which is what he meant."
Ying Zheng nodded vigorously, and his eyes added a bit of determination.
"Therefore, if you even give up your own country." Ji Fa paused slightly, and then said, "Do you still care so much about the future generations?"
Ying Zheng was speechless when he said it.
That's true.
How many people compete for fame and fortune, but for their own selfish desires, as for the inheritance of the inheritance to thousands of generations, it is just their own good wishes.
And if a person can really give up his own selfish desires, then does he still care about what happens to others?
Not to mention the unpredictable afterlife.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng calmed down, and his heart suddenly opened up, and his mouth
horns, and even a slight smile.
"What, figured it out?" Ji Fa asked.
"Hmm!" Ying Zheng responded, "Juniors think
I understand that this great plan to dominate the world is originally for the people to no longer suffer from the war, not for which king can look down on the world and monopolize power, so in order to get rid of the hidden calamity forever, let alone give up the royal power in his hands, even if he gives up the country of Great Qin, what can he do?"
"Do you really think so?" Ji Fa slanted his white eyebrows and looked at Yingzheng meaningfully.
"Hmm!" Ying Zheng nodded very vigorously and said, "The juniors do think so, since the previous seniors are like this, then the juniors will naturally be the same."
Unexpectedly, Ji Fa just sighed lightly and said, "This matter is not in a hurry, when you really decide, let's talk about this matter again, didn't the old man say that you are the last Heavenly Inheritor, and the path you take must be different from ours!"
In the last sentence, Ji Fa said in a rather heavy tone, and with a little affirmation and resoluteness.
"The younger generation understands, I will think about this matter in detail." Ying Zheng heard that Ji Fa had other intentions, so he didn't dwell on this issue.
"Okay, I hope that when you return to Lishan, you can make a decision, after all, this is also about the future road, how we should go." Ji Fa said.
"Good!" Ying Zheng agreed very happily, but then as if he thought of something, he asked, "Senior, after I entered the fourth layer of the Martial King Mausoleum, I returned to the palace to drink some wine, and then had a strange dream, did I really see the picture at that time?"
Immediately, Ying Zheng told Ji Fa in more detail about the dream at that time.
After hearing this, Ji Fa said, "Yes, the situation at that time is true, the scene there is connected to the passage, and whoever opens the strong stone gate will receive some relevant information."
"And the scene you see, the Tomb of King Wu has been completed, and the Taigong is also approaching the end of his life, hey! Looking back at that time, I was really reluctant to let Taigong go."
"In this life, the Taigong is frank and open-minded, with the world in mind, his wisdom, the old man sighs to himself, and his vision is also a few points higher than the old man, I remember that at that time, after the Taigong left, the old man hesitated for a while."
Ji Fa's sharp eyes showed a touch of sadness that was not easy to be noticed.
And Ying Zheng respected Jiang Ziya a few points more.
"Taigong is indeed a model for us, I don't know where Taigong was buried by his predecessors, and when the younger generations go back, they want to go to worship." Ying Zheng said.
"Hehe, you haven't been to that place many times." Ji Fa said with a chuckle.
"Oh?" Ying Zheng asked puzzled, "How many times have juniors been there?"
"Yes, the bones of the prince are placed in the tomb of King Wu." Ji Fa said, "Did you say you've been there many times?"
Ying Zheng: "......!!"
Ji Fa explained: "In fact, when the successors of the heavens of the past generations took over, they had to imitate the construction of a royal tomb for themselves, but it was all nominal, and the world was misled by its name, and the real purpose of the royal tomb built by the successor was to bury the previous heavenly inheritor."
"Just like the old man's tomb of King Wu of Zhou, it is the prince who is buried, and in the tomb of the King of Qin you built, it will be ...... in the future" Ji Fa paused and said, "The old man's destination!"
"I see." Although he was quite surprised in his heart, Ying Zheng's emotions seemed to be more glad!?
The successive inheritors, when they were approaching their twilight years, would choose an heir, and then give all their life's learning, gains, and feelings to this inheritor, and also subverted the country of their children and grandchildren for him.
When he dies, his merits should be admired by the world for generations, but helplessly, these secrets are not known to the world, so how to bury them after death is a matter of Tiancheng's own family.
And it is natural for the successor to build a mausoleum for his predecessors, but there is a difference in the name.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng arched his hand at Ji Fa and said, "Seniors rest assured, this royal tomb, the younger generations will definitely build it with their hearts, and they will never slack off!"
"Hehe, with your words, the old man is naturally extremely pleased." Ji Fa smiled and said.
The true purpose of each generation of royal tombs has also been known, and Yingzheng's mood is very happy, but his stomach is
He screamed angrily.
Li Si, who had not spoken much beside him, smiled and said to Ji Fa, "Master, this has been tossed for a long time, and King Qin is also hungry, let's eat something and rest for a while."
"Hehe, okay, let's eat something, and if we're tired, we'll get some sleep." Ji Fa said.
Ying Zheng nodded, took out his dry food and water, and ate and drank.
After the three of them had eaten and drunk enough, they had no mind to rest, and then they began to talk. And this time, most of the doubts in Ying Zheng's heart have been solved, so he no longer asks about these secrets, but chats with Ji Fa about family life.
After all, the story of King Wu of Zhou's destruction of Shang is well known, but listening to folk legends, how can it be true to listen to the person concerned.
Ying Zheng asked one question after another curiously.
What does Mrs. Jiang look like?
What are his preferences?
What deeds did those generals of the Great Zhou have back then, and what classic battles did they have.
Ji Fa patiently told again, which was a few more points more colorful than just now.
Li Si also straightened his ears and listened, and grinned from time to time.
Obviously, he had hardly heard Ji Fa tell these stories from hundreds of years ago. And when Ji Fa talked about Chen Tangguan Li Jing's father and son, how to raise troops to assist Xiqi, and how to fight and kill, Li Si's eyes widened wider than copper bells, as if he had never been so focused in his life.
And Ji Fa also became more and more energetic the more he talked, and seemed to have returned to that era and became an aspiring young man in Yushu.
Time is passing imperceptibly, and in this small space, the topics of the three people seem to be endless, and they never feel bored.
Of course, the reason why Ying Zheng asked so many questions was not only because of curiosity, but also because of some other thoughts.
Taking advantage of Ji Fa's dry mouth and drinking water, Ying Zheng said: "These stories of the predecessors are really wonderful, presumably, I can't hear enough for three days and three nights."
"Hehe, even if you like to listen to it, you have to have that spirit in the old man." Ji Fa said with a smile.
"Uh, senior, I still have something I want to ask." Ying Zheng muttered.
"Just ask." Ji Fa said.
Ying Zheng cleared his throat and said, "When Lü Buwei finally talked to me, he once said that how history is written is now in our hands, and how future generations will evaluate us is a question that needs to be discussed now, especially how to interpret our so many secrets to the world."
Ji Fa nodded and said, "What he said is indeed good. So what do you think?"
Ying Zheng immediately told Ji Fa in detail what Lü Buwei said to him, as well as his own thoughts.
Ji Fa pondered for a long time, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
"Alas!" Ji Fa sighed and said, "In this era of replacement, there are indeed many things to worry about, and it doesn't matter what future generations think of us, but for us, how to hide these shocking secrets is particularly crucial."
"I think so, too, especially after Lü Buwei made those suggestions." Ying Zheng said, "And these deeds just mentioned by the predecessors, it is better to use one of them to try to confuse the eyes and ears of the world."
"Oh?" Ji Fa asked, "Which way?"
"Compile all the characters and deeds involved in the destruction of the merchants into myths." Ying Zheng said with a smile, "Its name is called "Fengshen List"!"
