Chapter 131
Song.

Guifang, Quanrong, and Dongyi were settled, and Dashang once again established his illustrious military might. All the eight hundred princes trembled when they heard it.

With the return of the three victorious divisions, the morale of the army and the people of the Great Merchants was greatly boosted, and the downward trend of the country, which was originally somewhat turbulent, stabilized and even slowly improved.

Although Emperor Yi has been in poor health recently, today he is in high spirits, he wiped away his usual sickness, thanked the gods and ancestors as usual, the real hero Wen Zhong, the national teacher Qing Yun and the generals finally received the praise they deserved .

Wen Zhong, the Grand Master of the Shang Dynasty, looked to be in his fifties, with a majestic appearance, bright eyes, and an upright face that exuded an aura of calm and majesty.

Compared with the familiar Great Merchant Optimus Prime Wen Zhong, today it is the Taoist on Wen Zhong's left that attracts the most attention. He is dressed in a green robe and his hands are carrying the immortal bones on his back. man of.

Master of the Great Merchants!This was the first time for the officials of the Shang Dynasty to see this majestic man. Even Wen Zhong was willing to let this national teacher stand at the head of the left, which made the officials secretly shocked. (Xia, Shang, and Western Zhou: The main body respected the right. Yin and Shang worshiped ghosts, and more emphasis was placed on respecting the left in terms of sacrificial etiquette. The whole still focused on the right. Zhou opposed Shang and strengthened respect for the right.)
At this time, Emperor Yi finally finished his speech, and the master of ceremonies announced the beginning of the banquet. The musicians and music slaves struck a simple and melodious sound of bells and music on the exquisite bronze bells and drums. .In addition to bowls and dishes, the food utensils in the court of the Shang Dynasty also included gui, beans, etc. The materials were also divided into jade, lacquerware, white pottery and bronze. Mainly fish, bacon and animal offal, supplemented by some delicious vegetables at that time.

This is the famous "Ding Shi" in the Shang Dynasty. The prepared meat is first cooked in the prepared tripod, and then the waiter takes it out of the tripod, and dips it in various seasonings and serves it to the emperor and ministers.What's interesting is that Dingshi also has a strict hierarchy system. The emperor has nine tripods, the princes have seven, the doctor has five, and the rest of the officials have three. Any violation of the rules will be regarded as treason.The food in various tripods is also exquisite, so I won’t go into details here.At this time, the "ding" is not just a simple cooking utensil, but a very representative ritual vessel.

This time it can be said that it was a battle for the great merchants to gain a foothold, and the eight hundred princes were all trembling because of the great merchant's majesty. Even the princes who had not paid tribute for many years began to send envoys one after another.

"Hehe, everyone, today I must respect the generals of the three armies alone, and even more so, the generals who fought bloody battles for my great merchant, so that my great merchant can be powerful in the world. I also have to respect the great merchant, the civil and military man of the whole dynasty. If you are not here The situation in the rear is stable, and the deployment of the three armies is fast, how can our great merchant soldiers overcome thorns and thorns."

Emperor B!Dashang No.30 is the king. When he succeeds to the throne, Dashang's national teacher has tended to decline. Although this king doesn't have much ability, he knows how to use it well, especially when he promoted Wen Zhong, he became the Optimus Prime of Dashang. , and even the real Qingyun, the national teacher who is unpredictable now.

"I am waiting to respect the king."

This time at the palace banquet, all civil and military officials showed joy. After all, the declining business not only stopped the trend of decline, but now there is a vague tendency to make the eight hundred princes fear and respect again. How could they not happiness.

Emperor Yi of the Shang Dynasty, who drank the wine in one gulp, stroked his beard and laughed loudly. His previously poor health and vain complexion became even more rosy today. Looking at the civil and military men at the court, his eyes were even more proud.

I think it was a complete mess when he took over the big business. Now he can't say that he is trying to turn the tide, but it is true that the national power of the big business is booming, especially in terms of military power, it is even more powerful.

"Haha, there are no monarchs and ministers in today's banquet, all you can just open your mouth and drink happily."

Emperor Yi, who was rarely in a good mood, picked up the wine bottle again and drank it down in front of the civil and military officials of the court, signaling that everyone should not be restrained, but the minister of civil and military affairs, although excited, dared to be presumptuous, and hurriedly returned the salute and toasted.

However, Emperor Yi laughed and greeted a few acquainted members of the royal family to chat with him, and also directly put on a gesture to let everyone drink to their heart's content today.

I have to say that although Emperor Yi didn't have much merit, he was definitely a first-class expert in buying people's hearts, and this son Shou also completely inherited the style of his father.

Following Di Yi's reckless attitude, the civil and military officials below also began to laugh and toast each other with some openness.

"Third Prince, you usually like to drink booze, why are you so reserved today?"

It was a young man in white with a short beard who spoke, who was the eldest brother of King Shou. Emperor Yi had three sons, Wei Ziqi was the eldest brother, Zhongyan (Wei Ziyan) was in the middle, and Zishou (Shang Zhou King ) min.Wei Ziqi's mother was still a concubine when she gave birth to Zi Qi and Zhong Yan, and later became a regular wife before giving birth to Di Xin, who is a brother of the same father and mother. According to the etiquette and law of the Shang Dynasty, both Zi Qi and Zi Yan belonged to concubines son of the chamber.

It is this status of "the son of a concubine" that makes the two brothers jealous of Zishou, even Zishou's kind-hearted elder brother Wei Ziqi is no exception.

At the banquet, facing his eldest brother Wei Ziqi who pretended to be concerned, Zishou directly smiled indifferently and responded without any disrespect.

"Thank you, brother, for your concern. It's really because I have been in the army for so many years and got used to the problem of not drinking on weekdays."

With one reply, all the civil and military officials in the field were immediately made to pretend to be deaf and dumb, as if they hadn't heard or seen, but Wei Weizi smiled slightly, and said happily: "Then the third brother must be good. Get used to it, after all Chaoge is not in the army."

The two people's verbal confrontation was full of gunpowder. What Zi Shou meant was that he didn't just sit in the back and take credit for it. He personally led the troops on the front line to fight on the battlefield.

How could Wei Ziqi fail to understand the meaning of these words, instead of being angry, he counterattacked with a smile, meaning that this is Chaoge, the capital of the great merchants, not in the army, could it be that there is danger?Isn't this underestimating big businessmen?

In tit-for-tat confrontation, the two seemed to be in harmony, but the civil and military officials on the side all pretended to be stupid, and looked like they hadn't heard anything. They couldn't meddle in this matter at will. It was a little careless. Just set yourself on fire.

Looking at Di Xin's bronze-colored strong skin, Wei Ziqi squinted his eyes and nodded slowly. His younger brother is really a natural general. He is really convinced in this point, but unfortunately they are not generals, and the king of Dashang is even more so. It is not enough for a general to be a general.

"I heard that the third brother led the army to beat Dongyi this time, and even won the favor of the eldest daughter of Dong Bohou Jiang Huan Chu. My eldest brother congratulated the third brother in advance."

Wei Ziqi's appearance made Zishou smile even more, he looked like a brother and friend, and he didn't know how good the relationship between brothers was.

"Hehe, this time it was really a fluke for the disciple. When he led the partial division to attack the Dongyi army, he happened to rescue Dong Bohou's daughter. As for the favor, it was just a gift from the father."

Tit for tat counterattacked, it wasn't his plan, it was luck, not to mention, and his own father, Emperor Yi, who didn't know, thought that Emperor Yi had already leaned towards him.

And Wei Ziqi not only didn't get angry when he heard this, but raised his brows and smiled, cupped his hands and said: "In this way, big brother congratulates the third brother for embracing the beauty, so I don't think he will fight with the big brother again The old general's daughter."

In an instant Zi Shou narrowed his eyes slightly, it turned out that the elder brother from home had such a calculation, now that the Great Shang, apart from Grand Master Wen Zhong, the old general Huang Gun is the most prestigious in the army.

Wei Ziqi has a smile on his face, but there is a cold light in his bright eyes. Ni Zishou is indeed powerful. Not only has he made great military exploits, but he has also won Dong Bohou Jiang Huanchu, but so what, far away water can't quench his near thirst, If he can marry the daughter of the Huang family, it can be said that he has his own people in the army of the great merchants.

Among Emperor Yi's three sons, the eldest son Weizi Qi Xianglai has connections and reputation among civil servants, and is a little bit inferior in the army, but if he can marry the daughter of the Huang family, this will not exist.Zishou, on the other hand, has strengths in the army, and the reputation of being good at fighting has already spread all over the world.

The daughter of the Huang family, when she thought of the girl who used to wield knives and guns, Zi Shou immediately smiled, and looked at her eldest brother with a grin, and said with a smile: "Third brother, I heard that the girl of the Huang family wielded knives and guns, and even said that unless you Only those who can defeat her right away are eligible to go to the Huang family to propose marriage, otherwise they will be humiliating themselves."

Ruo Ruowu smiled, and Wei Ziqi squinted his eyes even more. How could he not know that the Huang family has now been honored by the sixth emperor of the Great Shang, and it is very interesting to go to the front line this time. The three sons of the Huang family assisted the three of them respectively, and Wang Lingxia was just a daughter of the Huang family, so there was nothing they could do in the end.

Wei Ziqi and Di Xin laugh and talk tit for tat, while Wei Ziyan, the second child, talks and laughs while drinking and eating meat, but Zishou will not underestimate his second brother.

Wei Ziqi and Wei Ziyan are almost wearing a pair of pants. Everyone knows that Di Yi's second child has almost no fighting spirit to fight for the throne, but he has already made it clear that he can stand up to his elder brother.

What's more interesting is that after the Shang dynasty destroyed the Zhou Dynasty, Wei Ziqi was entrusted by King Cheng of Zhou to Shangqiu, the old capital of the Shang Dynasty, and established the State of Song. The founding ancestor of the country, later known as Song Weizi.

What's more interesting is that after Wei Ziqi's death, his second younger brother Wei Ziyan (Song Weizhong) succeeded to the throne of Song Dynasty monarch.

It is true that these two brothers have achieved the point of being brothers and sisters, and even the throne is seated in turn.

When the three future heirs of the Great Shang Dynasty faced each other tit for tat, several important officials in the court seemed not to notice it, and even Emperor Yi smiled and waved his hands to talk to everyone, as if he didn't care at all.

Click!

At this moment, an inaudible voice sounded, and when Qing Yun was picking up a glass of sake for a sip, he looked at Di Yi above without a trace, and sure enough.

I saw Wen Zhong put away his sword finger indifferently and slowly, and a layer of mana weakened the voice, as if everyone didn't hear it. On the other hand, Emperor Yi saw Wen Zhong's gesture slightly and then gently After floating a glance at the top of his head, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up into a smile.

"Haha~ come and drink."

He obviously saw it but pretended not to see it, and Wen Zhong cast a spell secretly. Qingyun couldn't help shaking his head and laughing at all this. This Emperor Yi is really interesting. He used this to test his own son who is the most filial. Maybe the emperor's family is ruthless. It was the last sliver of luck in his heart.

Kacha~
Wu Yangyang, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs in the main hall, not to mention, among the generals, if Wen Zhong hadn't been playing tricks secretly, the voice would have already alarmed the generals in the army.

Kacha~
This time, everyone heard it, when Shang Wang Diyi was chatting and laughing with the three neighboring princes and important ministers.Suddenly there was a click on the top of the head. This was the silence in the hall. Countless people looked up and saw a pillar broke in the middle of the hall. The hall was about to collapse.

At this moment, everyone had no time to react, even!Wen Zhong secretly cast a spell, which made countless generals secretly dizzy, as if the smell of alcohol was on their heads.

The pillar was broken in the middle, and the dark hall was about to be smashed down. If it was really shot down, even if it saved its life, it would probably hurt its muscles and bones.Everyone panicked and didn't know whether to escort them or run away on their own, Di Yi pretended to be flustered and exclaimed: "My lord, save me!"

At this moment, Emperor Yi seemed to have forgotten the civil and military ministers under his command, and even more as if he had forgotten how many capable people he had under his command. Instead, he only remembered his relatives at this critical moment.

Perhaps this is human nature. At the moment of life and death, I always think of my relatives, not the generals who seem to be appreciated more than usual.

Wei Ziqi was stunned, looking at the hall that was about to collapse, there was only fear in his pupils for the first time, and his second brother Wei Ziyan hurriedly grabbed his elder brother and wanted to escape out.

"Be careful, Father!"

It was too late and then quickly, I saw a person jumping out of the middle of the prince's seat, I saw that Zi Shou was in such a hurry, he almost didn't even have time to think, there was only anxiety in his eyes, and at the same time he looked at his father and king. Roaring, at this moment, there are still people who blame the impoliteness in front of the palace.

Under the panic-stricken eyes of Emperor Yi and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, the young Zi Shou rushed up, hugged the broken pillar with both hands, and suddenly shouted loudly, his face flushed and the veins on his forehead violently roaring. With a sound, I saw the big pillar that couldn't even embrace it with both arms directly rose from the ground.

The main hall above the head that was about to collapse was actually supported by the pillars surrounded by arms. Under the shock of the huge force, Di Xin's face was flushed and his eyes were even more bloodshot. The guards on the side seemed to have been prepared, hurried A new pillar was brought up.

Zishou let out an angry roar, grabbed the bottom with one hand, and suddenly pushed the collapsed hall back to its original position. When the pillar erected on the side came over, he slapped it directly.

With a bang, the old and broken pillars were replaced by brand-new pillars. Zishou's replacement of the pillars shocked the merchants, civil and military officials. Even Wen Zhong never thought that Emperor Xin would be so brave. A look of surprise flashed in their eyes.

"Father!"

"Your Majesty!"

After the danger passed, everyone came to their senses, especially Wei Ziqi's face was pale. He immediately understood what happened just now. If nothing else, he just said that the indifferent grand master Wen Zhong was indifferent. He knew that this was an accident. A well-planned catastrophe, not to mention them, even most of the officials were secretly shocked.

Suddenly, there was no time to think about it. At this time, Zishou, who was sweating profusely and seemed to be a little tired, suddenly came to his senses. He raised his head and saw the panicked eyes on his father's face. There was a sense of relief in the plainness. An accident that saved the monarch and his ministers from a catastrophe, Zi Shou smiled wryly, it turned out that it was all his father's plan.

At this time, my heart is full of complexities, there is a sense of rejoicing and a little gloating, Zi Shou can no longer describe his feelings at this time.

 The foreshadowing of the early stage of Fengshen is almost over. After two or three days, it will be the main line of Fengshen. I hope fellow Taoists will like it.
