Ji Jili was in Yin Shang and only stayed for three days.

In the past three days, he did not visit the important ministers of Yin Shang, nor did he visit the emperors, he just walked the streets and alleys in the city.

At the time of the Xia Hou clan, not long after the flood, all the people began to live and cultivate in peace, and the products were not abundant. But after the Shang Dynasty, the situation changed again.

At the beginning, the merchants were also good at farming, like the Zhou people at this time, and at the beginning of the founding of the country, Chengtang sent the Bo people to help the Ge people farm the land. Bodi, the beginning of the Shang capital also.

Later, the abundant food allowed the energy of many merchants to be released to other places, and various craftsmen began to be born, and many exquisite utensils were gradually made by them.

Of course, in the beginning, the craftsmen were centrally managed by officials sent by the Shang Emperor, and they were rarely circulated to the outside world. Later, all kinds of skills spread, starting from Wuding, these things can't be helped.

Then, the capital was filled with all kinds of small merchants and hawkers, and many merchants engaged in long-distance trafficking with oxen carts and boats. Generally speaking, only merchants are doing the things of selling, so the people who sell are called merchants in the world.

In the city, all kinds of strange things, as well as delicate and beautiful utensils, bronze, porcelain, white pottery, jade, cloth, etc., these things show their skills, which makes Ji Jili breathtaking.

They Ji Zhou lives in the northwest borderland, in addition to farming and animal husbandry, at most they make some daily necessary utensils, as long as they can use them, where do they have time to ask for what exquisiteness.

No matter how well it is done, no one has time to appreciate it, and no one studies how to do it well.

However, in Ji Jili's heart, after all, there is still the pursuit of beautiful utensils. Even if he doesn't need it, he can buy some and give them to his mother, wife and juniors.

Fortunately, before Ji Jili came east this time, he found someone to exchange a lot of copper shells, which was enough for him to buy on a large scale.

Speaking of copper shellfish, in the beginning, from the beginning of the Xia Hou clan, natural shellfish began to be used as a currency to buy things. Because natural shellfish are not easy to preserve, some people began to make copper shellfish among merchants.

Most of the public waiting is purchased with copper shells.

Although Ji Zhou is a small state, this thing can still be exchanged for a lot.

On the last day, Ji Jili did not go out to buy anything again, but went to a place called Xingtai.

Shang Emperor Wuyi sent someone to send a message and asked him to go to the execution table before leaving.

Xia had a chaotic government, and was punished by Yu, and Shang had a chaotic government, and was punished by soup.

The so-called execution platform is the execution platform.

At the time of the Xia Hou clan, in the name of King Yu, there were five punishments, such as Dabi (killing the head), slashing (cutting the nose), Gong (mutilating the reproductive organs and destroying the reproductive function), cutting (cutting off the foot), and ink.

Since the beginning of the business, the penalties have only increased by a fraction, and the regulations have been more clearly divided. However, the punishment of Dabi is still one of the heaviest punishments.

If you can't influence the soul with virtue like Yao Shun, then you can only destroy the body with punishment like Qi Tang.

After coming to the execution platform, Ji Jili learned from the people next to him that the person who was going to be punished at this time was actually Yin Shang's Si Bu.

Shang has Wu Zhu four masters, and the matter of divination is divination. No matter what time it was, Si Bu was a high-ranking person, but he didn't expect to be pressed on the execution table at this time.

"The emperor's order, Sibu Kuangzhang, in the name of God, interfered in the king's affairs. His witch style was not right, and he ordered the emperor to go to the torture platform in person and supervise this great punishment. ”

On the torture platform, the Emperor Yin Shang's face was extremely ugly at this time, his hands were clenched, and he stared at the attendant officer who came to read Wu Yi's order.

And this attendant officer, who seemed to be quite bold, put away the bamboo slips, and said to Zituo with a smile: "Emperor, please hurry up, Your Majesty is still waiting in the palace." If the emperor is unwilling to make a move, His Majesty will let his subordinates do it for him. ”

Zituo's face changed, and he glanced at this attendant officer with hatred, and his eyes were full of murder.

The attendant shook his head and smiled, he was born in Wanfangtai, how could he care about the threat of an emperor. Mo said that Zituo is not the Shang Emperor now, and even if he is, he can leave at any time.

The so-called Wanfangtai is a crime to Taiwan. Wu Yi is called a crime, and he wants to attribute the guilt to one, but they are people in Taichung, but they are called all parties, and if there is guilt, all parties will share it.

At this time, at the entrance of Wanfangtai, there were four people standing, looking in the direction of the torture platform.

"Do you think that the people of Wuzhu's lineage will make a move?"

The old man with a cloth towel on his head and a black beard half a foot below his lips looked at him leisurely.

"Probably not, for so many years, Wu Zhu has been honest and honest, and the dishonest ones have almost been eliminated by several adults. ”

One of the tall and thin middle-aged men said, remembering that several adults had spent decades to suppress the mighty Wuzhu power and did not dare to raise their heads, he felt honored.

"Don't underestimate Wu Zhu, I heard that among the relics of Lingshan, some people are already dissatisfied with us. An old man in black, with a sad face.

"What are you afraid of? It's Lingshan, wasn't he cut in two by Master Yu's sword back then, are you still afraid of their relics?" There was another white-robed young man with a sword on his back, but he didn't care.

Speaking of the time when Master Yu split the Spirit Mountain with a sword, his whole body was trembling, thinking of Master Yu's demeanor back then, he was full of motivation to practice and full of motivation to learn swords.

The old man at the head stopped the white-robed sword-backed young man: "Don't talk nonsense, Master Yu personally went to apologize to several relevant witch gods for what happened back then, saying that it was an accident during cultivation. ”

The white-robed young man hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, it was an accident, Master Yu personally went to apologize." ”

Having said that, what the white-robed young man thought of was the demeanor of the adult who killed with a sword to apologize.

"Okay, it seems that Wu Zhu is in the same vein, and he won't make a move. The old man at the head glanced at the torture platform and continued: "Let's go to the place where the Duke of Zhou lives and wait for him." ”

"Yes. ”

The three people behind nodded hurriedly and followed behind him.

······

On the side of the torture platform, Zituo, the son of Wu Yi, snatched the torture weapon from the axeman's hand, personally held the big axe, and came to Si Bu's side.

Zituo didn't speak, but there seemed to be water in his eyes. However, he did not dare to let the tears flow.

"Tyrannical and unreasonable, disrespectful to ghosts and gods, and sinful to heaven. Although I am unfortunate that I will die here, and I can't see the end of Wuyi, there will always be someone who can see it. ”

Sibu shouted loudly, and the sound spread throughout the entire vicinity of the torture platform, so that everyone could hear it clearly.

"Emperor Zituo, don't do it yet. ”

The attendant shouted violently and urged Zituo to do it. He didn't expect that this Si Bu, at this time, would still use witch words to confuse the public. Isn't he worried about bringing trouble to their vein?

Hearing the voice of the attendant, Zituo swung his big axe and slashed at Sibu's head.

His heart was full of anger, unwillingness, guilt, and hatred, all of which were attached to this axe.

The big axe falls.

Zituo could see that before Si Bu died, he looked at him with praise and expectation, but there was no resentment.

Zituo was relieved, and his mood slowly returned to calm, his eyes were not sad or happy, and he looked at the attendant officer.

"Sibu has been conferred a head, so go and tell my father. ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, without thinking about helping this Si Bu collect the body. This kind of thing, at this time, he really can't think about it.

The attendant officer looked at the back of Emperor Zituo leaving, and his heart was slightly turbulent: "This emperor seems to have changed. ”

"Do you know why Si Bu was sentenced by His Majesty to the punishment of Dapi?"

"Why?"

"I heard that Your Majesty is going to conquer Dongyi again, according to the previous form, you have to divinate and divinate to see if the ending is good or bad. But I didn't expect that this diviner didn't know divination, so he directly said, 'Emperor Buruo', asking His Majesty to reflect on himself and sacrifice to God like Emperor Taijia, otherwise there will be more disasters to come. ”

"So that's the case, no wonder Your Majesty is so angry. This Taibu, is it possible that they still think that this is the time of the first emperor Gengxin, they can say whatever they want, and do whatever they want. ”

"That is, isn't the reason why Your Majesty wants to move the capital to our Qiyi is because the people of Yinyi don't listen to Your Majesty, but listen to Wu Zhu?"

······

After watching this scene, Ji Jili listened to everyone's discussions in his ears and walked towards his residence.

Every time a merchant has a war, he must first ask God to see whether it is "Di Ruo" or "Di Bu Ruo", if it is "Di Ruo", then the war will be won, if it is "Di Bu Ruo", then the war will be dangerous, it is better to cancel it in advance.

And the Taijia Emperor they are talking about is the fourth emperor of the merchants, the grandson of Cheng Tang and the son of Taiding. When Taijia first ascended the throne, he indulged in wine because he was too little to do. Yi Yin wrote three articles, "Yi Xun", "Wanton Life" and "After the Death", to show Taijia, hoping that Taijia could inherit the law of Shang Tang and rule the world.

But Taijia didn't listen to the persuasion and continued to do nonsense, subverting Tang's punishment, and Yi Yin let Tong go.

Subsequently, Emperor Taijia lived in Tonggong for three years, repented and blamed himself, and rebelled against goodness, so Yi Yin was the government of Emperor Taijia and granted. After coming back, Taijia really changed from evil to good and cultivated virtue, the princes returned to business, and the people were Ning.

Yi Yin Jiazhi, is the "Taijia Training" three articles, praise the emperor Taijia, after his death the temple is called "Taizong".

At the time of the Xia Hou clan, there was no temple number, Yi Yin built the temple number system at the beginning, which was to establish a model for the later generations of Shang Emperors, but where there is merit to the clan and the people, the temple leaves its name, so it is called the temple number.

Yi Yin and Cheng Tang approved, there are only two types of temple numbers, two types of ancestors or ancestors, ancestors have great merit and ancestors have great virtues;

You must know that there are not many emperors in the Shang generation who can have a temple number. It has been 500 years since the soup was formed, and there are only six Shang emperors with temple numbers. It can be seen that Yi Yin released Taijia, and indeed released a Ming Jun.

Ji Jili thought as he walked towards his residence.

When he arrived at the door, he saw the four people coming from the Sinyu Terrace, smiling at him.
