Just when Sun Ming began to refine his body, the princes of the Shang Dynasty began to arrive at Chaoge one after another, the princes of the eight hundred roads each brought their families and guards, there were not many people in a team, and there were no more than three hundred family members and servants, but the princes of the eight hundred roads were too many Tens of thousands of people poured into the court at once, and the common people who did some small business were happy at this time, and this time was the time when they made the most money.

Although the productive forces are not developed, Chaoge is the center of the Shang Dynasty after all, and the commerce here is developed, and the princes who come from afar, their families, servants, and guards are all going out to shop. In this way, the Asahi will prosper for a short time.

As the second son, Wei Zhongyan can't have much contact with the princes, but the henchmen in his house began to frequently move in the princes' post house, observing the movements of the princes.

Beibohou Chonghou Hu and his younger brother Chonghei Hu came to Chaoge together, and went directly to the post house to settle down, because of the political system of the Shang Dynasty, the post house is particularly huge, and as one of the four princes, Chonghou Hu will naturally be assigned to the best pavilion and post.

As soon as he walked in with someone, he saw Xibohou Jichang, "Xibohou came really early!"

"It turned out to be Bei Bohou, but you are late this time!" Xibohou Ji Chang is the oldest.

"Are the other two also here?" Chonghou Hu is young now, but his bearing is extraordinary, and he has inherited the position of Bei Bohou for a while.

"Dong Bohou Jiang Huan Chu and Nan Bohou E Chongyu have all arrived, but they are only one step ahead of you, they are settling their families, how about the four of us get together in the evening?" Ji Chang said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll go settle down first, I'm tired all the way. Bei Bohou Chonghou Hu walked inside with his younger brother and family, this is not the first time they have come.

In the evening, the place where the four princes lived began to be lively, they were resting during the day, and now the wine and meat have been placed on the long table, each of the four princes has a small table, the bronze wine bottle is full of wine, all kinds of meat, and there is a big tripod in the center, which is boiling soup, and the mutton is tumbling in it.

"Come on, let's have a drink first, and it's rare to get together again after a year. "Xibohou Jichang is the oldest, so he began to preside over this dinner.

The four princes drank it all, and then the Northern Bohou Chonghou Hu said: "Xibohou is still the old rule, how about a hexagram first?"

Nanbohou E Chongyu and Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu echoed, and Xibohou Jichang did not shirk, and directly took out divination, turtle shells and copper coins. This copper coin is not a currency, and now the Shang Dynasty has not yet unified the currency, and the copper coin of Xibohou is just a prop only used for divination.

"Bang la" shook it, and then the copper coin was sprinkled on the table, Xi Bohou looked at it, his face became serious, and the other three people moved in their hearts, but they didn't ask, but waited quietly.

"A great omen, but there is no danger, Dong Bohou has a good thing, congratulations first. Xibo Hou Jichang's face changed from solemn to relieved, and then said.

"What is the omen of great evil?" asked Nanbohou E Chongyu.

"Fire robbery, I don't know how it is, but this time the dynasty will inevitably be turbulent, and there are some things that I can't say, so don't ask, be careful, and there won't be any problems in the future. It's time for Dong Bohou to have something good about coming, congratulations in advance. ”

"It's all fierce, how can it be a good thing?"

"Hehe, I heard that Dongbohou has a young daughter, who is four years old, and our little prince is only six years old, isn't it a good thing?" Xibohou Ji Chang did not hide this, in fact, his heart was also shocked and inexplicable, the hexagram showed that the throne had changed, but he didn't dare to say this, so he could only hide it.

"Haha, it's really a good thing, I heard that the little prince is extremely smart, if the daughter of Dong Bohou marquis is married to the little king, then she will be the future queen?" Chonghou Hu laughed.

"This ...... Not necessarily, after all, the little girl is still young, and now she can't see anything, will the king decide like this now?" "Dong Bohou doesn't have this idea, and it is a good thing for his daughter to be the queen, but after all, the daughter is still young, and as a queen, she needs to be virtuous and virtuous, if she doesn't educate herself well in the future, it will be guilty, and it will make him a little uneasy for a while."

In this society, although the royal power has not reached its peak, it is almost the same, if the daughter of Dong Bohou is not taught well, or is not brilliant, then it is a sin. Therefore, Dong Bohou was also a little nervous, and wanted to marry the royal family, but he was a little worried about being convicted, so he didn't eat and drink well at a dinner party, after all, Xibohou Jichang's hexagram was never missed.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the next three days, all the princes came, and the first thing they had to come to see was the four princes, and the four princes were not just in charge of their own place, they were the leaders in the four directions of the southeast, south, and northwest, and each had a group of princes gathered around them.

These three days are for them to communicate, and the royal power of the Shang Dynasty here shows a hint of weakness, but after all, there are too many princes, and it is impossible to unite to fulfill others, so there is the right of the royal family, so it must be a problem for this situation to continue, but the Shang Dynasty has lasted for so long, everyone is used to it, and no one has any questions for a while.

But Sun Ming knows that this situation must be changed, and the catastrophe of the gods is an opportunity, the legend is unchangeable, but small things can be changed, he doesn't know whether this kind of thing is true or not, but it is necessary to change the dynasty, but it is not Xiqi who overthrows himself, and makes changes by himself, this is Sun Ming's idea, but now he does not hold power, these things are still a little far away, he is only in charge of refining the body now.

The Nine Turns Yuan Gong reflected its difficulties at this time, in the past, Sun Ming had a strong physical body, and his cultivation was unhindered, and he only encountered trouble when he knew the Eighth Turn, but now it is different, he has to start from scratch, even with the help of the elixir, he has not even completed a turn, and now it is just a body shape.

The first turn of the Nine Turns Yuan Gong is actually the most troublesome, because he has to shape his body first, but fortunately, he is young, and he has been warming the meridians, bones, flesh and blood, etc. since he was born, so that he succeeded in shaping his body with the help of the power of the elixir. And the next step is to refine the skin, forge the bones, purify the blood, and condense the veins in the four stages, from the outside to the inside, a good foundation, and one turn corresponds to the realm of the earth immortal, and the difficulty of cultivation can be imagined.

Sun Ming, who had completed the body shaping, began to boil his body, especially in the skin refining stage, why is it difficult to practice the Nine Turns Yuan Gong, especially the human race is the most difficult to cultivate, and the pain in the early stage is not something that ordinary people can bear. Especially Sun Ming is now a prince, and if he wants to refine his skin, he needs to let the guards whip him, so how can any guard dare to do it? Sun Ming can only think of his own way, he has people make some mechanisms, and then he pushes the mechanism to rotate, and the whip on it flies, and then whips it on his body, and the pain can be imagined.

After finishing, take the pill and put it in hot water, and then soak the whole body, the hot feeling makes Sun Ming unbearable, but the effect is also obvious. The wound quickly scabbed over in hot water, which was originally unreasonable, but the effect of the pill was like this, after the scab fell off, the original white and tender skin was pink, and in order to prevent others from finding out, no matter how much pain Sun Ming gritted his teeth and couldn't make a sound.

The eight hundred princes are now in contact with the four princes, and what they say most is not how the king is or how the government is, but how the little prince is now. They are really curious about this little prince, because there are too many rumors, especially in the last year, the first assassination, the little prince killed the assassin at the age of five, this kind of thing is very surprising to everyone.

Some princes don't believe it, thinking that it's mostly royal propaganda, but Wen Zhong went to the prince to ask for swordsmanship, and they had to believe it, because Wen Zhong's identity was extraordinary, and there was no need to befriend the prince at all.

Wen Zhong is the third generation disciple of the Interception Sect, and the master is the Holy Mother of Jinling, one of the four disciples of the Tongtian Sage, and the same name as the Duobao Daoren, the Holy Mother of the Turtle Spirit, and the Holy Mother of Wudang, and Wen Zhong is an official in the Interception Sect, the highest official position, and his status is extraordinary.

Such a character naturally did not go to the prince, he went to ask for swordsmanship, such a thing must be true, the princes had a lot of discussions, and they were also curious about this prince, and although they had all seen it, the prince in the past was too young to see anything, and now he is six years old, and he can participate in political affairs in a few years.

The king's health doesn't seem to be very good, this is also a matter of concern to them, if the king has anything, then the little prince inherits the throne, what will be the direction of the government at that time?

This is the princes, history is written by the victors, and what happened to the last king of the Shang Dynasty, this kind of thing is difficult to judge, and history will never have the truth.

Of course, this is the flood wilderness, Sun Ming doesn't care about the truth, everything needs his own strength to fight, fight with the saints, fight with the heavens, he doesn't know what the result is, and now what he needs to do is to accumulate strength.

Wei Zhongyan's henchmen have been active, they have observed the movements of the princes, and now the princes basically do not leave the pavilion, they are mostly in contact, and most of the people who come out are family members and servants, and the guards are also moving around, but there are not many.

Wei Zhongyan was thinking about how to make the princes mess up, but suddenly all the princes' people retracted, and none of them went to the street, which surprised him, what is the situation?

No one among the princes said anything about it, but they all knew the hexagram of Xibohou, Xibohou's hexagram was never missed, and the deterrent power of the great evil omen was too great, although there was no danger, but everyone couldn't say what was going on, and Xibohou was silent. It is better to believe that it is not credible than not, so the princes directly ordered their own people not to take a step out of the pavilion.
