Inside the city of Xiqi.

Bo Yi Kao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, and the light rain outside the window was pouring non-stop.

Since the succession of King Xu, the weather in the north is getting colder and colder, and although Xiqi has not fought a big battle this year, Ji Fa has continued to lead troops to plunder the population and cattle and sheep of the Xirong people, but Xiqi's harvest this year is still not very good.

Xiqi maintains a standing army of more than 400,000, and there is a big food shortage, and in previous years, it could still trade with Nandu, and the remaining part of the grain was used to make wine to improve the morale of the army and civilians, but this year it will not work.

On the contrary, the climate in the south is okay, and now a large number of refugees from the north have poured into the south, the speed of land reclamation has been greatly improved, and the grain yield per mu is considered to be the best in all summers.

"Alas" Bo Yi Kao sighed, the relationship between Nandu and Xiqi was almost broken because of Hong Jin, this is actually the surface, and the deeper reason He heard his father Ji Chang say that people have soldiers and generals, territory, and food, and they have already bred ambitions and directly join Xiqi? It's just faulty.

The relationship between the southern capital of the Han Kingdom has to be re-established

Bo Yi Kao stood straight.

Whether it is the prince or the prince, it is not easy, this position is a target, and all the open guns and dark arrows will pierce him.

Only when a person is in good health can he be in a good mood, and if he is in a good mood, his character will be resilient, and he will have enough physique to deal with various affairs.

The previous weak body seriously affected Bo Yi Kao's judgment, and he was a little rough when dealing with official business in his daily life, and he was not as gentle as before, but at this time, the angina pectoris, which was cured by Guangchengzi's elixir, and his body returned to normal, he had enough calm mind to think about the current problem.

Internal and external troubles.

The second brother Ji Fa, the third brother Ji Xian

In the past two years, his health has become worse and worse, and he seems to have put a lot of power in his hands to his two older brothers, and he also hopes that once he is gone, Xiqi's family business can be inherited.

Now that his heart is beating vigorously and his body is healthy, he doesn't think so.

The second brother has great military achievements, has a large number of supporters in the army, and the third brother is good at dancing with long sleeves and has won over many courtiers. But Bo Yi is not weak, the identity of the prince, so that he naturally has a large number of allies, the fourth brother Ji Dan is to support him, Ji Dan even proposed a new system of etiquette such as the difference between monarchs and ministers, and the inheritance of the elders, thinking that a basis for Zhou to replace Shang is to respect "rites".

Originally, these systems were vague, and he hoped that after his death, no matter how long it would be his concubine, as long as someone could keep the foundation of the Ji family, and now of course he would support it all.

A large number of younger brothers support him, Ji Chang's "four friends", Nangong Shi, San Yisheng, Hong Yao, and Taidian also support him as a son.

Bo Yi Kao now has the confidence to lead Xiqi to replace Yin Shang.

The other side.

Ji Fa roughly figured out the relationship between himself and Jiang Ziya.

is also a member of the sect, this is a natural ally, Jiang Ziya is very valued by Ji Chang, except for Nangong Shi among Ji Chang's four friends, the other three old ministers deliberately kept a distance from Ji Fa, and now the relationship between Ji Fa and Jiang Ziya is heating up day by day.

Every once in a while, Ji Fa went to Jiang Ziya's house to visit with gifts, and he called Ma an aunt.

This greatly satisfied Ma's vanity, the pillow blew twice without moving, Jiang Ziya still valued his old wife, and the balance in his heart couldn't help but favor Ji Fa's side.

"Uncle Shi has been in the sect for many years, and the other three generations of disciples of a certain temple respect Uncle Shi very much, why don't you invite one or two virtuous people to come and help Xiqi?"

Before the disciples left, Ji Fa wanted to recruit more people from the Teachings to help him.

Do they respect me? Jiang Ziya actually didn't understand why the disciples of the exposition sect kept themselves on their lips at every turn, the conscience of heaven and earth, he had cultivated in Kunlun Mountain for forty years, and he had never seen a few disciples of the third generation of the exposition.

Everyone has never known anything in their lives, and now they suddenly say that they respect me? I don't even know what I have to respect.

"Lao Chen can't guarantee that he will succeed, but he can try."

Jiang Ziya also felt that he was weak, and the help that Bukit and Long Xuhu could provide was too small.

He talked to the three generations of disciples of the Sect one by one.

Wei Hu felt that he still had a lot to lack, and now that he was in a catastrophe, he couldn't tell when it would be cold, so he politely declined, but said that once he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely come to his uncle's command to listen to the order.

Jin Zha, Mu Zha, and Huang Tianhua still need to wait and see, their parents and brothers are all in Nandu, what is the situation now? Will Nandu fight with Xiqi when he turns around? Father and son cannibalism, that is too filial piety.

They didn't dare to say it, and they didn't dare to ask.

Not to mention the three generations of disciples like them, even Guangchengzi, Manjushri, and Fuxian can't understand the relationship between Xiqi and Nandu now, for fear that they will accidentally get involved in the layout of the saint, if they owe the saint karma, they will be unlucky, black don't mention white, just fool around!

Anyway, there is no shortage of the three of you in Xingzhou and Zhou.

When Nandu voted, their brothers could follow suit.

For Jiang Ziya's solicitation, he also politely declined.

Jiang Ziya and Yang Jian talked for a few words, and Yang Jian pushed the boat down the river: "Uncle Gaoyi, Yang Jian is willing to serve Uncle Shi!" Go to the soup and go to the fire, don't give up! ”

Jiang Ziya was very happy and said yes again and again.

There is too little manpower on his side, Yang Jian's ability has been seen in the Yuxu Palace and Deng Chanyu's battle, to be honest, he is stronger than his own uncle, I don't know how many times, he is ecstatic to come to Xiqi to help.

It's just that Yang Jian has nothing to do with words like "gentle" and "approachable" in his life, he has a straight face every day, and he seems to be polite and courteous, but the arrogance in his bones can't be concealed at all, how to arrange the position, Jiang Ziya needs to think about it carefully, he can't offend his colleagues, and he has to give full play to Yang Jian's ability

Jiang Ziya is becoming more and more important in Xiqi, which makes one person extremely unhappy, and that is Shen Gongbao.

Yuan Shi Tianzun gave him an elixir, which cured his soul damage, and he didn't stutter anymore, Shen Gongbao went down the mountain in the name of assisting Jiang Ziya, and also wanted to get a piece of the pie in the big event of being a god.

The rest of the immortals of the Sect of Interpretation are all hiding from the god list, only Shen Gongbao does not know the inside story, he thinks that Yuan Shi Tianzun likes Jiang Ziya, so he gave the god list, thinking that it is a beautiful difference.

Wen Zhong whipped Jiang Ziya to death before, he applauded in secret, and when the person was rescued by the White Crane Boy, he felt that Yuan Shi Tianzun was biased.

Shen Gongbao's mentality is becoming more and more extreme.

Now that the matter of the Seven Absolute Formations has been completed, all the Xuanmen immortals have left one after another.

And he came to the city of Xiqi.

After observing for a while, I found Ji Xian, who had just been awarded the title of "Guan Hou", that is, the third son of King Wen in the original history, and Guan Shuxian, the half-brother of King Wu Ji Fa.

"Shen Gongbao, a Qi refiner in Kunlun Mountain, has seen Guan Hou."
