Chapter 219: Covenant and Warning
After a long time, Bixiao's voice came, and he seemed to have made a lot of determination: "You...... Do you really want to see me for real?"
Zhang Zixing wanted to pretend to be in a ridiculous tone, and tried to test it, if Bi Xiao was angry or refused, he immediately changed his words, and instead asked about the Mixed Yuan Jin Dou cutting the immortal body, but he didn't expect Bi Xiao's tone to be loose, and it was so solemn. As soon as his heart moved, he immediately put away his laughter and said, "Actually, this is exactly what I have always wished, to see what the woman I have admired for a long time looks like. β
Bi Xiao heard the words "admired for a long time", and her face couldn't help but flush. She didn't know that this "long time" was indeed worthy of its name, to be precise, it was an N years in parallel space. At that time, when someone was watching "The Romance of the Gods", he deeply regretted the three fairies who died in the Yellow River array, and now "someone" has the opportunity to be reborn in this strange world, which naturally gives rise to the meaning of "salvation". There are several meanings of salvation, and his "rescue" of this Bixiao Niangniang is definitely the most ambiguous, because he really likes her.
Zhang Zixing's words should be regarded as a kind of confession, Bixiao only felt that his heart was beating so hard for a while, he couldn't even suppress his mana, and in order to hide his thoughts, he deliberately "hummed": "Hugh wants to confuse me with rhetoric! Since you handed over the digital camera to Nezha, you have begun to covet my sister's appearance, and then you have tried every possible way to ask us what we look like from Nezha, is it because I don't know?"
Zhang Zixing smiled and said: "I won't tell you, I was really curious back then, but it's a pity that Xiao Nezha's path is too shallow, not only did he not complete the task, but even the digital camera was in your pocket, which is a pity." Listening to what Nezha said, you three sisters are all extremely beautiful, so I really want to see the beautiful women. β
Bi Xiao sighed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that your efforts are in vain, even in front of Nezha." My sister never showed her true face. What the people on the island see is just the appearance of our conjugation, the true face of my sister...... It is really strange and ugly, so the master gave him a mask to cover it. β
Zhang Zixing didn't care about this, if Bixiao really cared about his appearance. He has a way, even the female lu who was cursed by the golden mother of Yaochi back then can become the beauty she is today, let alone Bixiao.
He didn't care and said: "Back then, I did have the intention of peeking into the faces of the three of you, but now it's different, I just want to see the true face of the woman I like, not her two sisters." No matter how ugly she is, I don't care. β
Seeing that he was so straightforward, Bi Xiao was silent for a while, and then said faintly: "I lost the bet to you, and it is inconvenient to regret it, since you have made such a decision, I only hope that you will not regret it at that time." β
"How can I regret it? I'll be on the Three Immortals Island in an instant!"
Bi Xiao heard the joy in his words. I chuckled: "You are in a hurry! My two sisters and I are about to retreat and cultivate, and we will not be able to enter the customs for at least a year to comprehend the highest mystery of the Shangqing Immortal Formula, and I am worried that you will come to the Three Immortal Island to fulfill the contract." When you contact me at this time, it happens to be on my mind, and I can retreat with peace of mind. β
At least a year? Zhang Zixing was a little disappointed, but no matter what, Bixiao finally agreed to his request, and said immediately: "The day you leave the customs." Even when I go to Sanxian Island again, I will take Kong Xuan to rob you, and I will also snatch you back to Chaoge!"
Bi Xiao was happy in her heart, but she said: "Hmph! Snatch back the song of the court? You have a good mind upside down! Do you think I'm stupid and naΓ―ve? Although Kong Xuan is powerful, he is just a Xuan Immortal. Beware of me going to the Master of Biyou Palace. Ask him to defend my consumer rights!"
Zhang Zixing saw that she began to use words again. couldn't help laughing and fell, and said, "You don't want to be crooked." A pure person like me, even if he robs you to come to the court, he is just worshipping you like a mother, what do you think?"
He added another sentence in his heart: This "Niangniang" is naturally the Niangniang in the harem......
Bi Xiao heard him boast of his purity, and took a sip unceremoniously, the two frolicked and joked for a while, Zhang Zixing said: "Bi Xiao, you can cultivate with peace of mind, don't be distracted, then I will come to Sanxian Island to meet you for a while." β
It was the first time for Bi Xiao to hear him officially call him by his name, and he confided in his words of concern, and a strange feeling surged in his heart, and he said softly: "When I leave the customs, I will send Nezha to tell me, you have to come alone......"
Zhang Zixing was overjoyed and was about to speak, when Bixiao had already shyly turned off the communicator.
He wanted to ask her again about the solution to the closure of the Shura Female Immortal Body, but Bi Xiao had turned off her phone and couldn't be contacted again, but this time the "color head" was really an unexpected surprise, if everything went well by then, even Bi Xiao's whole person would be his, and he was worried that there was no solution to the mixed yuan Jin Dou?
At present, what he has to do is to wait for Han Zhi Immortal's elixir to be refined and help Kong Xuan and Ying Long fully recover, while concentrating on comprehending the mysteries of the Nine Palaces Demon Banner Land and digesting the huge power of the Nine Words to improve his strength. As for Daji's side, although she may like Xiaoyaozi a little, after all, it is the bane sent by Nuwa, and she is afraid that there is no hope for her betraying Nuwa, so it is better to wait and see what happens.
Xiqi.
Since Ji Chang's return, the effect has been immediate, and the people of Xiqi have been greatly boosted and more united. Ji Chang announced a series of measures to benefit the people and ordered the construction of a mourning platform to detach the thousands of resentful souls who had lost their lives due to the invasion of the dogs, which received a positive response from the subjects of Xiqi. After the construction of the Lingtai was successful, Ji Chang led the civil and military officials to pay tribute in person, and everyone was convinced.
Ji Chang also made a proclamation to the people, calling on the princes and the general public of the western region to "obey the law, not act recklessly, not violate morality, and fulfill the courtiers' festivals", and emphasized that "among the five Lun, only the gentleman's kindness is the most important; The Son of Heaven drove his own expedition to relieve the danger of the West and pacify the Dog Rong Rebellion. The princes and people of the West are all grateful, and the theory of loyalty to the monarch and love for the people of Xibo Hou Jichang immediately won unanimous praise from the people in the West, and was also published in the latest issue of the "Dashang Quarterly", which is a beautiful talk.
With the efforts of Ji Chang, the people of the West were united, and the work of reassuring the people and rebuilding them was carried out quite smoothly. And the glow of Ji Fa, who was originally praised as "Dai Xibohou", was covered up at once. When people mention Ji Fa, they praise "a virtuous father has no foolish son", instead of the original "excellent talent, no less than his father", Ji Fa is still obedient and filial piety on the surface, but the hidden haze in his eyes is getting thicker and thicker.
this day. In the Xibohou Mansion, Ji Chang and his second sons Ji Fa and Ji Dan and the ministers San Yisheng and Nangong Shi were discussing affairs.
Ji Dan is the younger brother born to Ji Fa's mother, the fourth son of Ji Changdi, also known as Shu Dan, because he was named Zhou Yuan, so he is also known as Zhou Gongdan. Zhou Gongdan was a famous politician, military strategist, thinker, and educator in history. He was revered as the "Yuan Sheng" by later generations. He made ceremonies and made music, and established a system of rules and regulations. His remarks can be found in the Zhou Zhu of Shang, and he is revered as the founder of Confucianism, and he is also the ancient sage most revered by Confucius. In Zhang Zixing's "Great Business Rites", a considerable part of it is plagiarized from his later ideas and practices.
Ji Chang knew Ji Dan's talent very well, and when he came back, he promoted him to his right and left hand. Tied with Ji Fa. Although Ji Fa was unhappy about this, Shu Dan and his mother were compatriots, and they had a deep relationship with him since he was a child, and he was always looking forward to him, so he was not too resistant. The place discussed by the five of them was Xiqi's military priority.
Nangong Shi heard that Ji Chang had reduced his existing forces and returned them to the people. Strengthen the meaning of post-war reconstruction in the West. Hurriedly dissuaded. Nangong Shi's opinion is that the strength of the army is the foundation of the country, and it must not be easily reduced, and this invasion of the dog Rong is precisely relying on these elite soldiers and strong generals to successfully resist the powerful offensive of the dog Rong, and it has been held on until the arrival of the army of the Son of Heaven. If we disarm now, it will be difficult to cope with any changes in the future.
San Yisheng objected. It is said that the biggest enemy in the West is the dog Rong, this time the dog Rong was defeated for the Son of Heaven, and even the royal city was destroyed, and it was no longer able to recover its vitality. At present, the West has been severely damaged by the war and is in urgent need of labor to build it. Some soldiers can be temporarily repatriated. Recruitment will be made in the future when needed.
Ji Fa tried his best to agree with Nangong Shidi's opinion, and proposed that he should take advantage of this great opportunity after the war. It is logical that the armament forces could be further expanded in case of emergency.
Seeing that Ji Fa was so persistent, San Yisheng didn't want to say more. Ji Chang looked at Ji Fa, who was bent on expanding the army, his white eyebrows were furrowed, and he set his eyes on Ji Dan. Although Ji Dan was young, he was quite talented, and immediately gave a compromise strategy: not to disband the army, but to let the soldiers assist the people in building and working together, as one of the main tasks of the army at this stage. This would not only enhance the prestige of the father, but also strengthen the cohesion between the military and the people, and also maintain the combat effectiveness and existing strength of the army.
As long as the "mass foundation" is laid, even if the war in the future requires the recruitment of soldiers, it will be able to respond to every call.
This idea has the meaning of "military and civilian family" in later generations, and it seems that this later celebrity "Zhou Gongdan" is indeed worthy of his name. When Ji Chang heard this, he showed a look of relief, and San Yisheng and Nangong Shi also praised it again and again. Ji Fa felt jealousy and hatred in his heart, but he met his father Ji Chang's clear eyes, and immediately quickly hid his thoughts, and loudly agreed.
Afterwards, Ji Chang left Ji Fa alone.
Ji Chang asked, "Fa'er, what is your intention in repeatedly asking for the expansion of the army this time?"
Ji Fa pushed a few words, couldn't stand the question, and had to say: "For example, today's situation is unknown, Wen Taishi's Northern Expedition has not been able to take it, Chonghou Hu and E Huan are in a stalemate, Dongbohou Jiang Huan Chu's fief has been cut, and he also has grievances with Dongqi. Among the princes of the four roads, there are already three roads that are unstable, when today's son is addicted to women, and he is becoming more and more obscure, just in case, it is better to make plans early. β
Ji Chang showed anger: "Rebel son! How can you make such a false statement! If the Son of Heaven is ignorant, how can he defeat the dog?"
Ji Fa confessed again and again, then took a step closer and said in a low voice: "There are no outsiders here, and the father and king listen to the child's heartfelt words." The Son of Heaven is lustful and oblivious, greedy for enjoyment, this is the last time I witnessed it, this victory dog Rong is really for the help of strangers, if it were not for this, it would have been a failure. A stranger once asserted that the world was about to be in turmoil, and that a new Lord would be born. Father and king should prepare early, so as not to fall behind at that time and regret it too late!" Ji Chang glanced at his son in surprise and exclaimed: "Stop! I have lived in the northwest for generations, sat in Dufang, and unified the heads of the princes of the two hundred towns, and I am grateful for the grace of the gods. Even if there is a great suspicion of assassination this time, it is also forgiven by the Son of Heaven, and it is so generous that it is difficult to repay a hundred deaths, and the status of a monarch and a minister should not be abandoned for the rest of his life! Even if the Son of Heaven really has a loss of virtue, and even if the king is full of evil, we must not bear it, and we must know that it is really a great rebellion to attack the king with a minister, and it is really a great rebellion to cut down the king! If you make a reckless act, it will be regarded as an infamy for the ages! If you listen to the nonsense of those warlocks again, and you are unwilling to surrender, don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between father and son!"
Ji Fa was also a little surprised by his father's resolute attitude, and was silent for a while, and said for a while: "Father warns, children should remember." In fact, it's not that the child is arrogant, but because his brother Boyi died unjustly, so he is resentful. β
Speaking of the deceased eldest son, Ji Chang's heart felt a pang, and his sharp eyes stared directly at Ji Fa's eyes: "Bo Yi Kao's death, I know it in my heart, you don't have to say more!"
Ji Fa felt that his father's sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate his heart, and he couldn't help but feel weak in his heart, and said secretly: Could it be that Jiang Ziya's spell on his mother failed?
The more Ji Fa thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at his father: "The child understands." β
"When I went to the court, I sent Yisheng and brought back a letter, urging you to love your brothers and have mercy on the people, do you remember? β
Ji Fa tried his best to suppress his nervousness, and said respectfully: "The child naturally remembers." β
Ji Fa's face was sad: "Although I have a hundred sons, I treat them equally, and they all cherish my life, and now I have lost Bo Yi Kao, and I don't want to lose any more sons, including you, or Dan'er, do you understand?"
Ji Fa only felt that his heart was beating very hard, and he didn't dare to say more, so he nodded.
Ji Chang looked at Ji Fa for a long time, and seeing that he never dared to raise his head, he couldn't help but sigh, and said with a tired face: "You go back to the house to rest, you need to remember what your father said, and you can't regenerate delusions!"
Ji Fa hurriedly said yes and retreated, and along the way, he felt that his underwear was soaked in cold sweat.
