Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 836 Do you know how hard my brother works?
Deng Chanyu and Daji paid their respects at the Huang Mansion, which was considered as fulfilling their courtesy.

The Huang family was a wealthy and powerful family. Aunt Huang, who had once taken good care of Deng Chanyu, had passed away due to illness, but the Huang family's younger sister-in-law, who had married Deng Xiu, was still alive. Without Huang Tianhua, the Huang family's path to immortality was cut off. Without Huang Feihu, they had also lost most of their military strength. Relying on the Huang family's younger sister-in-law's connections, the Huang family, as an in-law, was now much safer.
Deng Chanyu sighed, "Another old friend has been lost. Our era is coming to an end."

Daji:"???"

She thought for a moment and said, "My father's life span is indeed short."

Su Hu should have died in the battle with Yu De, the powerful Dou Zong. Now the grass on the graves of the Dou Zong family is very tall, but Grandpa Su is still alive and strong.

Huang Feihu is one of those online novel protagonists who "can go back and inherit billions of fortunes after death". He can restore his cultivation level before reincarnation by closing his eyes and opening them again. With the qualifications for the Battle of the Gods, he can adjust his job position when he goes back. It is really a win.

Su Hu has no such past. He is just a mortal general. Whether he dies quickly now and then becomes a god, or lives a few more years and reincarnates, all depends on Daji's opinion.

Deng Chanyu was prepared. If Old Man Su died now, she would arrange an easy job for him in Heaven. If he wanted to live a few more years, she would help Daji send him off. She would also sing a song. She had already thought of a title: "Father Passed Away at the Foot of the Mountain."
"The Zhou Kingdom has summoned all the princes to a meeting. My son, what do you think the Han Kingdom should do?" Deng Jiugong also came to the Huang Mansion to pay homage.

Lao Deng and Lao Huang do not have a king-subject relationship in the usual sense. It is more like a partnership in a company. At most, the Deng family has more shares. After working together for many years, it is impossible to say that there are no conflicts, but the conflicts are basically maintained within a controllable range. Now that the old friend is gone, Lao Deng is still a little sad.

In his opinion, Old Huang was gone, and he was two years older than him, so it would probably be soon.

If Deng Chanyu didn't say that I changed your fate, you can do such a thing, but it's best not to say it.

She barely hesitated about the alliance: "The common leader no longer exists. If the Zhou Kingdom insists on taking the title, then let them. It's all just an illusion anyway."

Deng Jiugong thought she disagreed with the alliance, but he didn't expect Deng Chanyu to change the subject: "It's okay to go and take a look. The Zhou Kingdom has lost its virtue and will not last long."

In addition to the original base of Xiqi, the current Zhou State also includes the land of Henan and part of the territories of Hedong and Hebei. The territory is not small. These places are basically the core areas of the three kingdoms of Xia, Shang and Zhou in the past.

The territory is large and the soil is fertile, but there is no population, no manufacturing industry, no farmers and no craftsmen. What's the use of it?
If Zhou Kingdom can find a hundred blacksmiths now, Deng Chanyu will lose. She then talked about the argument of striking back and winning, and striking first and winning later. She told Lao Deng to calm down and not be anxious, and let Zhou Kingdom fly for a while.

We really can't start a war at this time. All the gods and Buddhas in heaven hope to be deified quickly, immediately, and right away. If the Han Kingdom attacks the Zhou Kingdom, it will delay for several years. If we delay, something will happen, and no one knows what will happen next. We should do it quickly while King Zhou has just died and his body is still warm!
Deng Jiugong sighed. He was genuinely worried. Although he was in good health, many of his veteran officials had died in recent years. Would waiting another two years mean even more decline? Zhou's initial soldiers and generals were incompetent. The soldiers were farmers, the generals were young children. Now, after twenty years of continuous fighting, the soldiers and generals were well-trained. Meanwhile, many of the elite troops Han had brought from the Shang Dynasty had died.

Two years ago, the old minister Mei Bo was burned to death in a warehouse by a group of corrupt officials. He died a very tragic death. This was a fire that burned an imperial envoy.
Last year, General Tai Luan, who had always followed the Deng family, was ambushed by barbarians and was hit by more than ten arrows. He died as soon as he returned to the camp.

In the same year, Ding Ce, who was promoted by Deng Chanyu, died of plague.

This year, Huang Feihu and his son Huang Tianhua passed away.

The Han Empire's elite forces were declining, with its generals and ministers dying in various untimely deaths. Deng Jiugong didn't know why this had happened, and could only attribute it to fate. Deng Chanyu and Daji exchanged glances, both knowing full well that this meant the Conferred God Ceremony was drawing near.

After Deng Jiugong left the Huang Mansion, Deng Chanyu and Daji also said goodbye. On the way, the two hid their tracks and wandered around the streets and alleys of Nandu like invisible people.

"Are you ready to help your elder brother?" Daji asked.

Everyone knows that the Han State wants to seize the throne. The question now is whether the Deng father and son can accomplish this task.

After the Conferred God Ceremony, the immortals from the Orthodox and Demonic sects returned to their respective mountains. If Deng Chanyu had helped her father, the Han Kingdom would have won, but the consequences of doing so would have been severe.

Deng Chanyu stretched out her right hand and touched Nandu's Phoenix Luck through the air.

Previously, the Shang Dynasty was known as the Heavenly Destiny Black Bird, the Zhou Dynasty was known as the Phoenix Crying at Mount Qishan, and the Han Dynasty was known as the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix. The Phoenix Clan's luck skyrocketed. Unfortunately, with the fall of the Shang Dynasty, the Black Bird's luck was the first to fade. A war between the Zhou and Han dynasties was inevitable. Regardless of who won, the Phoenix Clan's luck would plummet, and the Dragon Clan's luck would rise in the mortal realm. This was a foreseeable event.

The Phoenix Luck was very close to her and chirped silently twice.

Deng Chanyu said, "I won't participate in the future wars. I believe they can succeed. Do you know how hard my brother works?"

Daji had heard this sarcastic remark many times before. She rolled her eyes charmingly and said, "How hard does your brother work?"

"My brother loves reading the most. He's well-versed in astronomy, geography, medicine, divination, and astrology. He knows everything."

Daji clearly didn't believe it: "Oh, that's really amazing."

The fact is that Deng Xiudu has almost torn the old "Sister's Words" to pieces, and he has indeed learned a lot of methods of governing a country from it. He can recite the stories of Senju Tobirama and Uchiha by heart. With such a rich reserve of knowledge, wouldn't it be easy and enjoyable for him to defeat the Zhou Kingdom without Jiang Ziya?
Old Deng only saw the weakness of the Han Dynasty. He didn't know that this was an era of worse than worse. The Han Dynasty had weakened a lot, and in fact, the Zhou Dynasty was even weaker. The biggest hidden danger was Ji Chang's ninety-nine sons, of which there were only more than forty left.

It was rare for Daji to return to Nandu, so she went back to accompany her father and at least think carefully about whether to let her father die quickly or wait for some time.

After Daji left, Deng Chanyu called Fei Zhong and You Hun and asked, "I asked you to bribe the Zhou royal family. How is the matter going?"

She is no longer a member of the Xuanmen sect, so it is inconvenient for her to call herself "poor Taoist". Yueguang has sunk into Buddhism, so she can no longer call herself "poor monk". Now the status of women is not so low that she has not fallen to the level of "humble concubine" or "concubine". As a princess, it is completely fine for her to call herself "this palace".
