Let you be a proton, you chase the empress of the enemy country?

Chapter 236 Killing the Second and Fifth Boys of the Bai Family

"Heavenly Human Race!"

Hearing this answer, Zhao Ji's heart twitched several times.

But there was nothing unusual in his expression, he just asked indifferently: "Such a confidential matter, my companion can actually find out?"

Eunuch Cao showed hesitation on his face, but he still said: "I'm telling you the truth! Your Majesty, although our Cao family has fallen, there are still some people who work in Haojing, and the slaves passed through them all the way, and entered the new Taishi Liao of the Zhou royal family. I found a booklet specifically recording the rites of praying for blessings, and it happened to have this kind of praying technique in it."

talking.

He handed Zhao Ji a copy of the booklet to read.

Zhao Ji took the booklet, but didn't read it right away, but said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, my companion, for the sake of Li Guo's affairs, I let my fellow clan take such a big risk!"

Eunuch Cao was quite moved: "If there is no Dali to take care of us, our Cao family must have been exterminated long ago. Today's Dali is no different from the mother country to the Cao family. Isn't it a matter of course for the mother country to take risks? Is it?"

"Very good!"

Zhao Ji seemed to be feeling sorry for Dali having such a loyal minister.

Slightly withered hands rubbed the booklet for a long time before finally opening it.

Although the royal family of Zhou has declined, it cannot be denied that it is still a cultural center. There is no other place in the world where such a large and complete collection of books can be found.

This volume records almost all the spells related to blessing in the world.

The most important page of the booklet is marked, and there are records about the technique of praying for blessings, which are meticulously recorded according to a unified recording format.

This technique of praying for relief is exclusive to the celestial beings.

In ancient times, after the Celestials and Humans defeated the Ten Thousand Demons, it was convenient for the Humans to live behind the wall.

In order to pass on the better quality of the ethnic group, it is forbidden to intermarry with the human race, and for the sake of eugenics, the art of praying for good health has been intensively researched.

There is nothing weird about this technique of praying for good health, it simply uses the essence of both parents to warm and nourish the fetus, which can minimize the consumption of the three.

The effect is extremely outstanding.

But all the fetuses that have been prayed for will be extremely healthy, with almost no congenital defects.

Parents are hardly hurt either.

The only side effect is that...

It takes about three years to recover, and it takes three years to give birth again.

"This……"

Zhao Ji's eyes were a little gloomy.

At the end of this record, it is also written that this technique of praying for relief is a secret method that is not passed on within the Celestial Clan. Only the rituals and witches of the Celestial Clan in ancient times are eligible to practice it, and it can only be performed by the Celestial Clan.

Is it the Bai family or other Celestials who performed this?

three years later.

Is this supposed to mean he's going to die?

A chill ran down his spine.

Although it is a recognized fact that the king of the Zhao family was short-lived, his own age is still many years behind the average age of the Zhao family.

Only the Queen, Zhao Ning, and that boy Ying Wuji knew clearly that they would not survive a year.

If it is said that someone can deduce his own lifespan through his eyesight.

It's not impossible.

But it seems that only Eunuch Cao in front of him has this opportunity.

If he dared to perform this technique of praying for relief, he must have calculated that he would not live for three years.

Three years is enough to easily destroy his "Twin Plan".

If three years passed, I would no longer be there.

Ying Wuji still stayed in the Li Kingdom safely, and the only heir of the royal family was his and Li Caimei's children.

If it is a boy, I am afraid it will be too difficult to change the crown prince.

but……

Zhao Ji smiled lightly: "It's a good thing to say! Brother, tell me, is this technique of praying for good fortune performed by the Bai family, or by other celestial and human races?"

"Ah this..."

Eunuch Cao was a little apprehensive, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty! This matter is of great importance. This servant is just an eunuch, so I dare not make rash comments."

Zhao Ji smiled and waved his hands: "Forgive your innocence!"

"All right!"

Eunuch Cao looked rather embarrassed, but he still collected himself, pointed to the book in his hand and said, "Your Majesty! This book was compiled by the royal family of Zhou, but it has a long history, and the first half should be inherited from the royal palace of Shang. , with a slight addition.

But this technique of praying for good health is very late, and the time should be after Zhou Tianzi unified the world.

The Zhou family regarded themselves as the Son of Heaven, and this heaven may not be the heaven of heaven and earth.

If the Zhou royal family really intersected with the Celestial and Human Race, there are records about the art of praying for blessings, and this is how it came about.

Moreover, the Bai family's family-inherited exercises follow a fierce route. Although there are many secret arts of heaven and man, they are not quite like the family of witches and priests. "

Zhao Ji nodded thoughtfully: "You mean, it has nothing to do with the Bai family?"

"The slaves dare not speculate, but just tell His Majesty what they think in their hearts!"

Eunuch Cao nodded modestly, but then changed the subject: "However...according to the members of the Cao clan, there is no mention of the Celestial Clan in the Zhou royal family, on the contrary, on the contrary..."

His mouth opened and closed.

It seems that the second half of the sentence that is about to be said is very hot.

Trembling, with a look of fear and sincerity.

Zhao Ji's voice was low: "Say!"

Eunuch Cao seemed to have struggled a lot, but he finally said, "Instead, I met a few people who are suspected to be members of the Bai clan."

Zhao Ji asked, "Why is it suspicious?"

Eunuch Cao hurriedly said: "More than a year ago, the Bai family fell into the sand in Qian State, and almost the whole family was imprisoned. These people once found Zhou Tianzi and tried to persuade Zhou Tianzi to intervene and let Qian State let the Bai clan go. But Emperor Zhou Ai Xiyu did not agree."

"I see!"

Zhao Ji nodded slightly, and there was no joy or sorrow in his expression, but he looked at Eunuch Cao with a half-smile: "Big companion! You are just reporting the truth, and it's just a matter of early birth and late birth of the royal family. Why do you look frightened?" .”

Eunuch Cao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly seemed to relax a lot, and he quickly blamed himself: "Your Majesty is an eunuch, so your eyes and thoughts are inevitably narrow, and you are worried that there will be a rift between Your Majesty and your son-in-law because of this. But it is true that Your Majesty is so open-minded The servant girl is thinking wildly."

Zhao Ji smiled faintly: "When you are old, you still have to relax a bit. What are you doing so wildly? You, take good care of your heart, and you have to stay with Gu for a few more years!"

Eunuch Cao hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your instruction!"

Zhao Ji waved his hand: "Go down and rest!"

"Yes!"

Watching Eunuch Cao leave.

The smile on Zhao Ji's face faded slowly, and there was no joy or sorrow in his cloudy eyes.

Just sit there quietly.

a long time.

The eunuch's voice sounded outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Uncle Julu please see me!"

"Ok?"

Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, the Zhao clan had one marquis and two uncles.

The last time the palace was forced, Marquis Changping and another earl jumped out, and now these two have been completely taken over by the young people Zhao Ji is optimistic about.

There is only one giant deer left...

This Ju Lubo has always been very close to the royal family, so he didn't participate at all last time.

But at the same time, he is a very conservative person in the clan, and he is extremely protective of the clan's interests.

The recent court meeting.

He also repeatedly proposed that to fully station in Xindi, the general power should be completely in the hands of Zhao.

In fact, the bulk of the military power has always been in the hands of the Zhao family, but the training of recruits and reserves are all generals with different surnames, and the city defenses of several cities near Xinli are not in the hands of the Zhao family, so that the army will not become the back garden of the Zhao family. , and then cultivate a military nobleman like Changping Hou.

So Zhao Ji never nodded.

Uncle Ju Lu came here today, presumably because of this matter.

Zhao Ji thought for a moment, then said calmly, "Let him in!"

"Yes!"

After a moment.

The giant deer Bolong, who was in his prime, walked in with a tiger's stride.

He is about 50 to [-] years old, and he is at the peak of his personal combat power. Although he has not yet comprehended supernatural powers to break through to the realm of enlightenment, he is still a rare warrior in the realm of soldiers.

It's just that this fierce general has been relatively insecure recently, often dreaming that his subordinates are constantly commanding.

Meet Zhao Ji.

He immediately saluted respectfully: "Veteran Zhao Du pays homage to His Majesty!"

Zhao Ji smiled warmly: "You don't need to be polite, the court meeting is over, why did you go and come back?"

Zhao Du took a deep breath: "Your Majesty! The old minister heard that Xindi is about to recruit a second batch of new troops. The old minister's family is all good soldiers in the army. They are all good at killing people, but they are all idle at home. Therefore, I implore Your Majesty to allow the old minister to go to Xindi. Practice the new king, and fulfill the old minister's intention to serve the country."

Zhao Ji smiled and waved his hands: "Clan brother is a rare general in the world, if it is just training the new army, it would be a bit too talented."

Zhao Du was a little annoyed, did this mean he wanted to refuse again?
"His Majesty……"

"but……"

Zhao Ji changed the topic: "Xinli City has basically been completed. This city is the most important thing in the whole new land. The city defense must not be taken lightly. It must be guarded by elite soldiers. Most of the newly trained recruits are near Xinli. , there must always be a place to go. I don’t know if the clan brother is willing to pick up this hot potato!"

Zhao Du was immediately overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

……

Xinli City.

A new building was also erected not far from the palace. It is said that it will be the future Prince Consort’s Mansion. It looks quite large, but the construction progress is not as good as other places, and it may take more than a year to complete.

The palace is also expanding at a steady pace.

Progress is equally astonishingly slow.

Because the focus of the early construction of Xinli City has always been on infrastructure for the convenience of the people, and the priority of the residences of the rich and powerful is very low.

This disappointed many families who moved in early.

First, the living environment is not very good.

The second is... Waiting for the capital to be moved, I don’t know the Year of the Monkey.

But moving the capital is not something they can worry about.

The boss who can decide to move the capital is fishing in the Prince's Mansion with peace of mind?
"Yo!"

Wrapped in a padded jacket, Ying Wuji ran to the old man by the pond: "Are you old enough to go fishing again?"

Dali Xindi is in the north of the Central Plains. Spring has already begun in the Central Plains, but the rivers and ponds here are still completely covered with ice sheets.

But the old man’s enthusiasm for fishing has not diminished at all. Every day he can’t be shaken, and he comes out to fish in the afternoon when the sun is brightest and warmest.

Zhao Ji took off his cotton cap, and looked at Ying Wuji with distaste: "It's been so long, why don't you wink at all, you want to be someone else's son-in-law, now the fishing holes are all done!"

talking.

He threw the pole straight down.

The fishhook landed on the ice sheet, slid out for a long way, and then lay there quietly, obviously unable to break through.

Ying Wuji grinned: "Come on! I'll go punch you."

With that said, he flipped down the railing and landed firmly on the ice.

It looks quite easy.

He only heard a slight "click" sound, and he couldn't help but become more cautious in his movements. He walked in carefully, and then came to its natural hanging position with the fishhook in his hand.

Under the ice, there are fish shadows swimming faintly.

Ever since he was disgusted by Zhao Ji for the first time, he dug up the best quality river mud to cover the pond, and then bought a lot of fish fry. The magic circle prevents this pool of stagnant water from becoming increasingly hypoxic.

The tip of the Hanguang sword melted from his palm, and stabbed towards the ice.

But I never thought that this poke directly shattered the ice surface.

Thinking wildly, the whole person fell downward.

"Hey I wipe!"

Ying Wuji's complexion changed drastically, and he hurriedly dropped the hook, while he stepped on the water and flew back to the shore.

Although the reaction was quick and he didn't fall into the pool.

But a pair of boots were still filled with icy water, and he grinned from the cold.

Zhao Ji gave him a white look: "I don't have such control, how long has it been since I went to the Spirit Martial God Realm?"

Ying Wuji agitated his zhenqi to dry up the ice water, and grinned, "It's been a while! Recently, I occasionally realized something during my lectures in the academy, so I'm busy compiling textbooks."

Zhao Ji was amazed: "I didn't expect that you are really suitable to be a literati."

Being incarnate in Xinli, he naturally knows every move of this kid.

Except for disciplining the Bai family, he spent most of his time in the academy.

Although the content of what he said was not as well-organized as the four masters of Confucianism, Mohism, and Legal Soldiers, he could always spit out golden and jade good words from time to time.

This academy sacrifices wine.

Well deserved.

Now that I am starting to write textbooks, it may be that I have given too many lectures, and I have occasionally realized something.

Zhao Ji looked at his son-in-law: "Speaking of which, you can be considered a master of miscellaneous families. When you break through the realm of soldiers, you will be able to accept disciples alone and call yourself a master."

Ying Wuji shook his head with a smile: "What about Confucianism and miscellaneous schools? I think the so-called schools of thought don't need to be so clearly distinguished. It is the right way to take the essence and discard the dross and use it for the king.

I also want to call myself a master, but I just edited things, and I just copied a little from east to west, and then changed it again and again.

As a result, several masters in the academy had great opinions on me, saying that I had ruined their classics. "

Zhao Ji asked, "So, what are you going to do?"

Ying Wuji chuckled: "Cover your ears and don't listen? Anyway, Li Country is our territory, and the master of the Academy Palace is also my father-in-law. Who am I afraid of if I'm a relative?"

Zhao Ji smiled and shook his head, this kid really played the thick-skinned to the fullest.

Weng and son-in-law did not continue to chat about this topic.

Just sit side by side.

Waiting for the fish to take the bait.

But today seems to be a little bit of bad luck, I waited for a long time but still haven't waited for the fish to take the bait.

a long time.

Zhao Ji was a little dissatisfied: "The batch of fish fry you bought before didn't work, and they didn't know how to take the initiative to bite the hook."

Ying Wuji replied casually, "Maybe I'm too timid to be scared by you."

Zhao Ji: "..."

He thought about it, and recently he did have some dark faces.

In the past, this kid would accompany him to fish for a while at noon every day.

As a result, I was scolded too much by myself for having a baby, and then I only came once every three or two days.

"That's right, Wuji!"

Zhao Ji raised his eyelids, pointed to the box under Ying Wuji's buttocks and asked, "You carry a big box to the Prince's Mansion every day, what's in it?"

Ying Wuji chuckled and said, "Didn't I tell you? The son-in-law's house can't let go of the family property of raising a wife and children, so I moved here to make it even better."

Gee!
Zhao Ji wanted to kick the boy's ass, rubbed his brows and asked, "Could it be explosives?"

He knew very well that Ying Wuji and Wu Dan were working on something called explosives.

The first application was the fireworks on the New Year's Eve the year before last.

But the fireworks are worthless except for their beauty.

But later, with the improvement, the power of this explosive has gradually increased to a considerable extent. At least in the case of firepower coverage, even the elite of high-grade spirit embryos will be hit hard.

In Ying Wuji's words, in the future, make firecrackers for children to play, so that a few more enemy troops can be killed by blowing up, and military merits can be accumulated since childhood.

Want explosives really to the point of mass production.

It's not even a gift.

"Dynamite..."

Ying Wuji grinned: "I shouldn't put explosives in my bed either! But don't worry, this thing is more eye-catching than explosives."

Zhao Ji was thoughtful: "You can't watch it until I'm ready to kill you?"

Ying Wuji was silent for a moment: "Yes!"

The atmosphere was quiet again for a while.

Zhao Jicai smiled and shook his head: "You are the one who is careful in everything you do, how can I kill you? When my time comes, I will order Ning'er to demolish it forcibly. Let's see what good things your kid prepared for me."

Ying Wuji's eyes were a little sour when he heard this: "Don't think so! Alas! Speaking of which, I am really incompetent as a son-in-law. If I tell you directly..."

"Don't!"

Zhao Ji smiled: "How could that old boy like Ying Yue use it to make a fuss, but how can he just pass by? Don't even try to say anything, lest I, an old man, think about it.

Now I just want to enjoy my old age peacefully and not be affected by those messy things.

Unless I have the hope of seeing my grandson before I die, nothing can affect my mood.

So you kid..."

Ying Wuji's face turned bitter: "I'm already working hard! I feel more and more that the technique of praying for relief is the work of the second or fifth sons and daughters of the Bai family who are always in collusion, but I can't find it no matter what."

Zhao Ji nodded: "In the next period of time, you should pay more attention to the Bai family, and try to keep this force completely under your control."

"I try my best!"

Ying Wuji nodded solemnly. He felt more and more that the Bai family was full of wildness, and it was really not so easy to control.

Now both the Yingtian faction and the Prophecy faction are very inclined to grasp their own power.

He did exactly that. The first batch of [-] apprentices of the Bai clan have already grown into talents, and their average cultivation level is the fourth-rank spirit embryo, which has reached the extreme value of ordinary people. Sooner or later, their influence will spread when they are returned to the army. .

So now the whole Bai family is very supportive of themselves.

And he is very sure that now he is the most prestigious person in the Bai family.

But there is still one, or a group of sixth children, who don't know what they are doing behind their backs.

And it's well hidden.

It made people burnt out.

Zhao Ji smiled and patted him on the back: "It's good if you can do your best! In short, you can develop the Bai family with all your strength during this period. After I die, you need to gain a firm foothold in other countries. You can't do without your own power."

"Yes!"

"Go!"

"Hey! Go on fishing."

Weng and son-in-law expressed a few words of concern to each other, and Ying Wuji left.

There was still a smile on Zhao Ji's face, but his eyes looking at Bing Mian felt a little hollow.

Today it is today.

He still trusts Ying Wuji very much.

But as he said to Zhao Ning before.

Trust or distrust is never a question.

The premise is to hold the kingly way.

But now... I can't even see that the inheritance right is firmly in the hands of the Zhao family in my lifetime.

life!
Sure enough, everything can't be smooth sailing.

Zhao Ji looked in the direction of Haojing in the south, and then in the direction of Qianguo in the west, his eyes under the white hair were a bit dim.

He didn't know who made this move.

But it really fell into his heart.

Outside the Prince's Mansion.

It was also difficult to maintain the smile on Ying Wuji's face.

In fact, he had considered this situation before.

After all, in this world, even having boys and girls is out of control.

He was also thinking about what to do if Zhao Ning's first child was a daughter.

But that's okay.

Because a child can be born, at least it can represent an attitude.

But now the children are gone.

Is this the rhythm of clearly wanting to seize the inheritance?

Before Ji Dong said that sooner or later he would not be able to get along in the Li country, and Lao Bideng also said that someone in the Bai family would teach him to be a man.

I'm afraid that's what I'm talking about!

have to say.

Pretty tricky.

This move hits the nail on the head, and it is no longer a question of whether trust is broken or not.

To be honest, Ying Wuji couldn't think of any countermeasures.

Because there is a sixth child in the Bai family.

This time I can put myself on the fire.

Next time, I can also put myself on the fire.

The old man can trust himself.

But it's impossible to trust the Bai family.

This technique of praying for good fortune is too weird, let alone that he will leave the country of Li when the time comes.

Even if you don't leave the country of Li and concentrate on making a child at home, wouldn't you be finished if you don't give birth?
Headache!

I only hope that Tangtang can give birth to a girl in this pregnancy.

This can ease the situation a bit.

But it's just a relief!
Ying Wuji didn't know if he had kept so many backup players, whether it was enough to solve this problem.

"call……"

He breathed a sigh of relief.

I just want to go home and sleep well.

But she never thought that when she returned to the consort's mansion, she would see a person with the same sad face.

Ying Wuji was a little surprised: "Hey? My son, it's really strange that I didn't go to the mountains and the countryside today. Could it be that even my son has started to be lazy and lazy, showing his aristocratic style?"

Say something.

In the current consort's mansion, all the staff are struggling.

During the daytime, she doesn't stay at home at all, even Bai Zhi has become a private teaching assistant for Jijiu in the academy. During the day, she sorts out materials in the academy, and occasionally enjoys herself physically and mentally with Master Jijiu in the office.

At night, he would sleep with Ying Wuji unshakably and teach students how to practice.

As long as I catch the time to rest, I will definitely go back to bed to catch up on sleep.

Not to mention Mi Xingli.

When Mi Xingli saw Ying Wuji coming back, she immediately stood up, with a look of worry looming between her brows and eyes.

I just opened my mouth, and felt that there were some words that I couldn't say directly.

Then he took a step forward, hugged Ying Wuji's arm, and shook it gently.

"Brother Wuji~~~~"

"..."

Feeling the feeling of being surrounded by his right arm, Ying Wuji couldn't help twitching the corner of his mouth: "Tell me, what else do you want?"

Mi Xingli's face turned pale, and she said with a helpless smile: "To be precise, I'm begging you from the Bai family, but is it useful for you to speak in the Bai family?"

"nonsense!"

Ying Wuji pointed to his nose: "I am the Patriarch of the Bai family, you think I'm not worth talking? Tell me, what's the matter?"

Mi Xingli took a deep breath: "The Bai family is a descendant of the Celestials and Humans, and they have lived in foreign lands for thousands of years. They must know the Yaozu very well, right?"

Ying Wuji frowned: "What do you mean? That wave of big monsters made another move?"

"It's not that there's another move!"

Mi Xingli smiled bitterly: "It's always been taking action. When Qu Jingzhao's family got the three cities around Zhuanxu Yin, they vowed to eliminate all evil spirits. At first, the effect was quite outstanding, but then... the big monster made a move." gone."

Ying Wuji frowned and said, "Did you attack suddenly?"

Mi Xingli nodded: "Yes!"

Ying Wuji pondered for a moment. According to what Mi Xingli said before, the big monster has never appeared.

But now, the big monster suddenly appeared.

It's as if...the royal family of Zhou granted higher authority to Yaochao.

He asked again: "How is the situation now?"

Mi Xingli's voice was cold and hard: "The methods of those big monsters are getting more weird than the other. Although the three surrounding cities did not suffer too many casualties, they have already been infiltrated into a sieve. If this continues, they will figure out what is the outer defense of the Zhuanxu Seal. Sooner or later, I'm afraid the demon nest will directly attack the city."

Ying Wuji's teeth were a little sore: "Is there no way to counter it?"

Mi Xingli nodded: "Yes!"

Ying Wuji asked, "What?"

Mi Xingli hugged him tighter: "You!"

Ying Wuji: "..."

hiss……

It has made them so desperate that they have to ask the Bai family for help.

How strong is this wave of big monsters?
Ying Wuji couldn't stand it anymore, and quickly pulled out the arm that was almost embedded in her body: "Stop talking nonsense, just follow me to Bai's house."

After finishing speaking, he went back to the room and took Bai Zhi out of the bed.

Regardless of whether she was asleep or not, she just put on her coat and strode out of the mansion.

Mi Xingli didn't dare to delay, and followed quickly.

When we arrived.

There were not many people in the main hall of the Bai family.

Most young people work outside.

Except for a few people on duty, only the Great Elder was lying on the deck chair and dozed off.

See Ying Wuji come over.

The Great Elder couldn't help showing a smile: "Wuji, you're here!"

Bai's process of accepting disciples went very smoothly.

During this period of time, his attitude towards Ying Wuji also changed greatly.

Ying Wuji nodded at him, and then told several others: "Call everyone in the Bai family back, and let go of the live ones!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded and prepared to rush out.

Bai Nong asked curiously, "What did you call together all of a sudden?"

Ying Wuji said in a deep voice, "Help people!"

"Help someone?"

Bai Nong looked at Mi Xingli subconsciously: "That's right! Now that the evil disaster is serious in Chu State, we really need help."

Ying Wuji's eyes narrowed, and he added, "Besides helping people, there are other things!"

Bai Nong asked, "What else?"

Ying Wuji looked at him quietly, and said two words: "Kill!"
