Investiture of the Gods: I am Bigan, the Master of Conspiracy

Chapter 79: Conspiracy, large-scale infrastructure!

After hearing this, Luo Shen couldn't help but fall into deep thought!
Just as Yin Ziyu expected, when he used his luck to build the Zhaixing Tower, the matter of Emperor Xin's blasphemy against Nuwa was gradually suppressed.

After all, what the cultivators from the three realms in Chaoge seek is luck and fortune.

As for the others, they are too far away, and the discussion among mortals is insignificant.

This caused many cultivators from the three realms who were in Chaoge and were eager for luck and hoped to advance to come immediately after hearing the news.

In response to this, Yin Ziyu carefully selected officials who were familiar with the construction of the Immortal Pavilion, and even recruited some people who had built the Lingxiao Palace.

Now, it is the time of catastrophe. The fortune of the Shang Dynasty is unstable and may even plummet.

If the Shang Dynasty is really lost, this great fortune will instantly decline and be completely transferred with the self-abandonment of the emperor of Xiqi.

Good luck will not disappear for no reason, but will be transferred.

Even if this great fortune is bestowed upon the immortals from all directions in Chaoge, they will all be consumed by their own karma.

This means letting the meat rot in the pot and then building up prosperity.

When good fortune gathers, it will inevitably prosper. When good fortune declines, it will decline. But the place where it is transferred will prosper.

The once prosperous Heavenly Palace no longer exists, but it has brought about the prosperity of the present Shang Dynasty. With many saints sharing countless fortunes, the Shang Dynasty is still prosperous.

Then, at this time, continuing to distribute the luck among all races, building fairy pavilions, and maintaining a prosperous appearance can also greatly delay the decline of Cheng Tang's kingdom!

Therefore, the grand construction of the Zhaixing Tower was intended to stabilize Emperor Xin and complete his plan of making the ruler incompetent and the government clean at the bottom. It stabilized Emperor Xin's mania and served as a cover for the situation so as to avoid a vicious cycle of decline.

This is somewhat similar to the logic of immediately starting large-scale infrastructure construction when the Blue Planet's economy is in recession.

Although Yin Ziyu was wasting his luck at this time, the prosperity of Chaoge and the excitement of all living beings would actually increase his luck.

If you can't get any benefits in Chaoge, and the immortals from all three realms spit on you and flee, that would be a real decline.

When the construction of Zhaixing Tower became a hot topic in Chaoge, the matter of blaspheming Nuwa was no longer discussed. Instead, the cultivators of the three realms began to think about how to win the prize in this feast of luck.

The construction of the Star Picking Tower is a huge fairy palace. After all matters are arranged, all the spiritual trees requisitioned and the planning of the building are rewarded with luck, and the immortals from all directions of the three realms are employed.

After the spiritual veins were surveyed in Chaoge, a huge construction site was immediately built. The materials piled up like mountains, including thousand-year-old spiritual trees, which were simple but full of spiritual essence, huge black iron stones, and countless rare and precious spiritual materials that were searched for.

The construction of the Zhaixing Tower, such a huge project, was completed very quickly, and the whole of Chaoge was extremely excited for a while.

Everyone forgot about Emperor Xin's blasphemy against Nuwa some time ago and came to enjoy this huge feast of fortune distribution.

Seeing this, Luo Shen exclaimed: "Brother Ziyu, it is true!"

Yin Ziyu smiled faintly and said, "If not, when the fortune of the Great Shang Dynasty declines, these people will complain bitterly. Then, a bad aura will shroud Chaoge, and these immortals will talk about how foolish Your Majesty is all day long. People will inevitably panic. How can the Great Shang Dynasty last like this? When the fortune declines to the extreme and people's hearts are scattered, it will be the time of collapse. Now that there is an opportunity to divide the fortune, no one will talk about it. Even if someone with good intentions guides it, they will definitely be disdainful!"

After hearing this, Luo Shen's beautiful eyes were filled with admiration.

"I admire Brother Ziyu's plan. If it were truly a warning to Your Majesty, it might be of no use at all!"

Yin Ziyu smiled slightly and said, "Now, it's time to choose a beauty for Your Majesty."

Luoshen had no objection at all to Yin Ziyu selecting beauties for Emperor Xin.

There are many women from all races in Chaoge, and Yin Ziyu took advantage of the opportunity to reserve a position before the nine-tailed fox entered the palace.

When Yin Ziyu spread the news, there were many women from all races in the Three Realms who wanted to find a shortcut to change their fate.

Yin Ziyu was personally selected. If she wanted to enter the palace, she had to be beautiful and charming, and secondly, she had to obey his arrangements.

In the end, two women were chosen, one from the rabbit tribe and one from the fox tribe.

The girls of the rabbit tribe have skin whiter than snow, bright eyes, and a delicate look in their eyes. The girls of the fox tribe have graceful figures, affectionate eyes, and a charming demeanor in their movements. Their flowing silver hair adds to their charm.

Yin Ziyu talked to the two of them individually.

"This time you enter the palace, you will serve His Majesty and obey His Majesty in everything. Do not disobey. If someone else enters the palace in the future, you must not lose His Majesty's favor."

The two were very well-behaved: "We will obey your orders in everything!"

Yin Ziyu continued, "The Sacrifice Department will enjoy the good fortune you have gained. His Majesty is currently in a state of turmoil, so you can make love with him and accompany him in drinking. If his Majesty shows any signs of a drastic change of heart, you must respond with gentleness and inform the Prime Minister as soon as possible!"

"As commanded."

After giving all the instructions, Yin Ziyu sent someone to bring the two girls to see Emperor Xin, and told them their origins directly without hiding anything.

Emperor Xin, who is now in a manic state, doesn't care about whether they are human or not. Instead, he wants to enjoy women from other races.

Seeing the two women so gentle and charming, Emperor Xin was immediately delighted and showed his joy on his face. He also praised his uncle for understanding his feelings.

Not only did he send beautiful women, he also searched for spiritual fruits from the three realms, brewed immortal wine, and sent it to the palace.

This made Emperor Xin indulge in wine and women all day long, neglect state affairs, and ignore all court affairs.

All government affairs were handled by Shangrong, and the operation of the entire Dashang did not encounter any changes or decline.

Prime Minister Shang Rong, witnessing this scene, was filled with worry. "While Prime Minister Ya's scheme may help stabilize King Tang's empire, it's not the right path if it continues. Ya's construction of the Zhaixing Tower and the sending of women into the palace are intended to deceive Your Majesty and distract him from state affairs. I'm afraid someone with ulterior motives will use this as an excuse to brand Ya's prime minister a traitor."

Yin Ziyu smiled coldly at Shang Rong's words. "With the current national situation, how can I pursue empty fame and let King Tang's kingdom be in jeopardy? If you and I give loyal advice, not only will His Majesty not change his ways, but we may even die. If you and I die, then His Majesty's reputation as a tyrant will be irreversible, and the fortunes of the Shang Dynasty will collapse in an instant. Even if I have to bear the brunt of the treacherous ministers, what good will it do? Those who do not plan for eternity are not worthy of planning for the moment. How can the reputation of loyalty and treachery be determined in the present!"

Shang Rong was quite moved after hearing Yin Ziyu's words.

"I'm sorry for everything!"

Shang Rong then sighed deeply, "Your Majesty, while not attending to state affairs, has allowed state affairs to run smoothly. The construction of the Zhaixing Tower has actually benefited everyone in Chaoge, and has even helped to revive their fortunes! However, the Zhaixing Tower will eventually be completed. What should we do now?"

After hearing this, Yin Ziyu pondered for a moment and said, "After the Star-Picking Tower is completed, we can consider other plans and try to maintain our luck!"

Shang Rong sighed: "This is the only way!"

Yin Ziyu said calmly, "If we take it slow, things will be smooth sailing. If we find more opportunities for all living beings, the matter of the Holy Mother can be dragged out indefinitely, exchanging space for time!"

Shang Rong's face was filled with worry after hearing this: "If this is the case, then the Prime Minister will become a thorn in the side of the conspirators behind the scenes, and will allow His Majesty to blaspheme the Virgin Mary. The Prime Minister must be careful!"

Yin Ziyu didn't take it seriously. "Prime Minister, don't worry. You and I are the Prime Ministers of the Shang Dynasty. We have good fortune to protect us. Even the Golden Immortal can't do anything to us. If there is another assassination attempt, it will turn the tide for Your Majesty. If it is a conspiracy, I have nothing to fear!"

"That's great. No matter what, you should be attentive!"

At this time, Chaoge was bustling with people, and the noise was like rolling waves, endless and indescribably lively.

At this time, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother came to Chaoge on the orders of her master, one to protect Yin Ziyu, and the other to intervene in the catastrophe so that she would not be too passive during the catastrophe.

Because of the fight in Huoyun Cave, Tongtian realized that this Conferred God Ceremony would not be a simple change of dynasty, and the entry of the Golden Spirit into the world would also be a preliminary intervention.

The Golden Spirit Holy Mother wore a plain Taoist robe, concealing her majestic immortal power and transforming herself into an ordinary female Taoist priest, slowly pacing in the prosperous and bustling Chaoge.

The Golden Spirit Mother seemed to be looking at everything around her casually, but in fact she was taking in every subtle change in Chaoge City.

"This is the way of my Jiejiao, the change it brings to all living beings!"

The Golden Spirit Mother looked at the Chaoge City in front of her, which was a scene of bustling activity.

The final destination is Zhaixing Tower.

There are both immortals and mortals here, but mortals have no part in building the Star Picking Tower, it is all done by immortals.

At this time, the celestial immortals and the mysterious immortals were almost reduced to construction workers.

However, these immortals were filled with excitement. After all, they could gain some luck in Chaoge, which would immeasurably improve their future enlightenment and herbal medicine patrols. The luck gained from hard labor for one day could withstand a year of future enlightenment.

Countless people even hope that the Zhaixing Tower will never be completed.

The construction of the Zhaixing Tower also boosted the trade among immortals in the entire Chaoge, because the immortal materials needed for the Zhaixing Tower and the immortal fruits needed for His Majesty to make wine could all be obtained through luck.

As a result, it led to the abnormal prosperity of the entire Chaoge.

Monks from all walks of life gathered in groups of three or five, all they talked about were the opportunities and benefits of participating in the construction of the Zhaixing Tower.

And not long ago, the uproar and shocking incident of Emperor Xin's blasphemy of the Holy Mother was no longer mentioned or cared about in the clamor of the city.

This situation made the Golden Spirit Holy Mother shocked.

From the saint's perspective, blaspheming the Virgin Mary would cut off the source of the Shang Dynasty's legal system.

This also gives the justice to all parties to rise up in arms.

At the same time, the entire Chaoge will inevitably suffer a sharp drop in fortune and people will be in panic. Then, its decline and destruction will inevitably sweep Chaoge.

But the strangeness at this time surprised the Golden Spirit Mother.

Of course, it’s not that no one has ever spoken about the blasphemy of the Virgin Mary.

The Golden Spirit Holy Mother heard people talking about these things at this moment.

Seeing someone's face filled with indignation, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother said, "I heard that Yabi Bigan not only built the Zhaixing Tower, but also sent beautiful women into the palace, allowing His Majesty to indulge in pleasure every night and ignore state affairs. He is truly a treacherous minister."

However, someone quickly retorted, "Why do you care about this, fellow Daoist? The Prime Minister has generously donated his luck to build the Star Picking Tower, which is why we have this opportunity."

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit also saw people calling out: "The foolish emperor blasphemed the Holy Mother and carried out large-scale construction projects. Not only was there no one in the court to remonstrate with him, but there were also treacherous officials who encouraged him to do so. The Cheng Tang dynasty is in danger."

However, this appeal seemed to fall on deaf ears and no one paid any attention.

All the immortals and mortals in the entire Chaoge City were filled with the opportunities brought by the construction of the Zhaixing Tower, and did not care about other things at all.

"Zi Yu is truly resourceful and intelligent. Unbelievably, no one is talking about this blasphemy against the Virgin Mary."

Soon, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother completely understood the mystery and couldn't help but sigh.

What surprised the Golden Spirit Holy Mother even more was that the fortune of the Shang Dynasty, which should have plummeted due to Emperor Xin's blasphemy against the Holy Mother, now seemed to be steadily recovering.

"This luck has plummeted, and I thought it was an irreversible decline, but now it can actually improve slightly. What is the reason for this?"

At this time, the Golden Spirit Mother murmured to herself, and her heart was quite shocked.

For someone like the Golden Spirit Holy Mother who has lived in the immortal mountains for a long time and rarely appears in the world, there are many mysteries that cannot be fully comprehended at once.

"Is this the method that Zi Yu is so dedicated to cultivating his mind in the world? Perhaps, only after meeting Zi Yu can I know the secret!"

One day, Emperor Xin was drinking with his two favorite concubines when Fei Zhong and You Hun came to ask for a meeting.

"Your Majesty, I have heard that Jizhou Marquis Su Hu has a daughter named Su Daji. She is naturally beautiful, with a face like a fairy, and her likeness is rare in the world. If you can summon her to the palace to serve Your Majesty, she will surely add a lot of color to Your Majesty's harem, and allow Your Majesty to fully enjoy the pleasures of human beauty."

"Oh?"

Emperor Xin's face immediately lit up with an excited smile: "Such a stunning beauty? Excellent, excellent! Immediately issue an order, ordering Su Hu to send his daughter, Su Daji, into the palace."

After Su Hu received the order from Emperor Xin in Jizhou, his face suddenly turned as gloomy as ink.

Su Hu slammed the imperial edict onto the table, his eyes wide with anger as he shouted, "Emperor Xin, this tyrant! First he blasphemed the goddess Nuwa, committing the crime of gross disrespect. Now I hear he's embarking on a massive construction project to build the Star-Picking Tower. Now he's even more obsessed with beauty. This unjust and tyrannical ruler, without considering the virtues of his ancestors, has listened to slander and wants to choose my daughter as his concubine. How can I agree to this?"

Su Hu disobeyed the order and wrote down these words, which were quickly sent back to Chaoge.

When Emperor Xin learned about this, he was immediately furious. In his anger, there was even a hint of red in his eyes: "How dare Su Hu, this traitor, be so bold as to openly disobey my order and even say such outrageous words! I will definitely kill him!"

Seeing this, Fei Zhong and You Hun hurried out again.

You Hun flatteredly, "Your Majesty, calm down. Su Hu is so arrogant and abominable. In my opinion, you can order Xibo Hou Jichang and Beibo Hou Chong Heihu to lead a large army to attack. They will surely capture this traitor Su Hu and vent your anger."

Fei Zhong also echoed, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Xibo and the Marquis of Beibo are both capable and skilled warriors. This time we will surely be able to successfully pacify Jizhou."

Yin Ziyu soon learned about this matter.

Luo Shen asked Yin Ziyu worriedly, "Brother Ziyu, what should we do with His Majesty being like this?"

Yin Ziyu didn't care at all: "It's okay, let him be, just obey His Majesty's wishes!"

Luo Shen frowned and said, "Fei Zhong and You Hun seem to be treacherous officials in the court!"

After hearing this, Yin Ziyu laughed at himself: "With me setting an example, it is understandable that other ministers would do the same. Fellow Daoist Mi Fei, there is no need to worry too much!"

After hearing this, Luo Shen sighed: "Having Brother Ziyu here really makes me feel at ease. Even such a treacherous person can be dealt with calmly by Ziyu!"

"In fact, the so-called heart of the world is that some people must play a role. Whether loyal or treacherous, they all have their uses. And the so-called loyalty and treachery are not really loyal or treacherous, but what some people consider treachery, others consider loyalty."

After hearing this, Luo Shen pondered for a moment and nodded, "Mi Fei understands. Zi Yu used his treacherous tactics to stabilize the fortunes of the Shang Dynasty. Those who benefited from this considered Brother Zi Yu loyal, while those who plotted chaos would consider Brother Zi Yu a traitor!"

"Hahahaha, what a so-called loyal and treacherous person, who is not really loyal or treacherous, and has actually benefited me a lot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light fell from the ritual hall.

When the golden light dissipated, a woman wearing colorful cloud clothes appeared in front of Yin Ziyu and Luo Shen.

The woman was tall, with a colorful cloud-like dress draped over her body. A golden wheel of merit condensed behind her head, and she held a jade ruyi with a dragon and a tiger in her hand. She looked dignified and elegant, with the laws of the great Dao condensed in her body. She exuded a fierce aura, like a sword drawn from its sheath, its edge exposed.

His face is dignified and majestic, his eyes are bright and sharp, like the twinkling cold stars in the night sky, revealing courage and determination. His every move shows his heroic spirit, and his whole body exudes an awe-inspiring spirit.

The woman stepped on the colorful clouds and slowly descended. Her colorful cloud clothes fluttered in the wind, and her clothes rustled like burning golden flames.

Yin Ziyu was greatly surprised when he saw this and immediately bowed and saluted: "Ziyu greets Teacher Jin Ling."

The person who came was none other than the direct disciple of Jiejiao, the leader of the Five Holy Mothers, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.

The Golden Spirit Mother stared at Yin Ziyu in front of her with a sharp gaze, and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes!
"Zi Yu, I never thought that the young man who traveled with Wen Zhong to the East China Sea could now comprehend such a profound Tao. This truly makes me look at him with new eyes."

The approval of the Golden Spirit Mother carries the satisfaction and recognition of the elders for the younger ones.

Yin Ziyu asked in surprise, "I never thought that Teacher Jin Ling would come here. I am truly flattered. Teacher Jin Ling, please take a seat. Fellow Daoist Mi Fei, please quickly serve the immortal tea."

Seeing how respectful Yin Ziyu was to his teacher, the Golden Spirit Mother could not help but praise him.

He then sat cross-legged on the cushion, and soon Concubine Mi brought him fairy tea.

Now that Yin Ziyu is in charge of the fortune of the Shang Dynasty, there is no shortage of rare treasures in the world.

After all, most of the fortune in the prehistoric world belongs to the human race, and Yin Ziyu is in charge of the fortune of the Shang Dynasty, which is similar to the fortune manager of some prehistoric worlds. Therefore, any rare treasures in the world can be exchanged for it.

Without the cultivation level of Hunyuan Jinxian, no one is qualified to eat Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit.

If Yin Ziyu sends someone to visit, he can get ginseng fruit. This is Yin Ziyu's power.

This is also the difference between Shang and Zhou. Shang had a human emperor, who could suppress some of the luck. As the high priest, he had the right to control the luck.

If the Zhou Dynasty did not have a human emperor, it would no longer have the right to control destiny. As the Son of Heaven, its destiny would belong to Heaven, and it would be up to Heaven to control destiny and give the emperor a salary. This is one of the most obvious differences between a human emperor and a Son of Heaven.

Now that Yin Ziyu is in charge of destiny, he can use the power in his hands to exchange for rare treasures from heaven and earth, and he can also drive large-scale infrastructure construction throughout Chaoge to delay the decline of destiny.
