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

Chapter 82: Using Queen Jiang’s Ribs as a Harp, Lamenting the Difficulty of Finding a Beautiful Woman Again
Wei Ziqi looked at Queen Jiang and said, "Your Majesty, what should we do with the Zhaixing Tower?"

An expression of disgust immediately appeared on Queen Jiang's face. After all, this was the place where Emperor Xin and those goblins would live freely in the future.

Thinking of these things, Queen Jiang suddenly became furious and could not control herself.

"Stop, all the luck stops, we can't let the luck be wasted like this!"

Wei Ziqi quickly said, "I respect the Queen's order!"

After Queen Jiang caused a big disturbance in the sacrificial ceremony, all the luck of Zhaixing Tower came to a sudden halt.

When the luck stopped, the originally bustling Zhaixing Tower was suddenly filled with panic, and everyone was talking about it.

The originally bustling and lively Zhaixing Tower suddenly became very depressing at this moment.

Weizi Yan arrived and shouted, "The Empress has issued an order to halt the construction of the Zhaixing Tower. Your Majesty is the Emperor of Mankind and should exercise benevolent governance. Such a large-scale construction project is inappropriate and should be abolished. All cultivators should disperse!"

Weizi Yan's announcement made everyone look anxious and talk about it.

"This Queen Jiang has actually shut down the Zhaixing Tower. What should we do? Is Chaoge about to change?"

"It's a pity that Yabibi used Zhaixing Tower to distribute luck to independent cultivators like me. Now that Zhaixing Tower has been shut down, do we really have to leave Chaoge and find another way out?"

"I heard Queen Jiang say the High Priest was treacherous, but ever since Your Majesty blasphemed the Holy Mother, the entire Chaoge's fortune has plummeted, and Yabi Gan proposed building the Zhaixing Tower to restore it. Now she's actually trying to stop the construction of the Zhaixing Tower. How foolish! The High Priest worked so hard, using fortune as bait to recruit monks from all over the world, that Chaoge's fortune gradually stabilized. Now she's overturned everything in one fell swoop."

"Alas, I heard that Queen Jiang went to see His Majesty. If they really don't want to build the Star-Picking Tower anymore, we'll have no choice but to leave this troubled place."

When no luck was obtained, everyone sighed and slowly began to talk about the affairs of Chaoge, and even the matter of blasphemy against Nuwa.

When people's hearts went from being full of hope to being worried about the future, the entire Chaoge was suddenly covered by dark clouds, and the fortune of the entire Shang Dynasty began to decline in an instant.

Yin Ziyu naturally knew everything about what these people were talking about, but he was not worried at all.

"Brother Ziyu, what should we do? Queen Jiang is coming with such force, and she's using the Queen's power to take away the sacrificial rights."

However, Luo Shen's words stopped abruptly. Looking at Yin Ziyu's back with his hands behind his back, she showed a calmness that seemed as if she was facing a crisis.

"It's okay. Her doing this is a good thing for us. Otherwise, you and I would always be branded as treacherous. Her impetuous actions have saved me a lot of effort."

Yin Ziyu understood that Queen Jiang herself was a time bomb.

Because he belongs to the Shennong lineage and is naturally close to the Xuanyuan lineage, if Yin Hong is allowed to ascend the throne smoothly, then almost everything he has done will be in vain.

Judging from its roots and position, Shennong himself is a close blood relative, and the human religion and the orthodox religion are actually one family.

He and Emperor Xin abolished the Human Emperor for a hundred years and transferred the human race's legal system, which really offended Queen Jiang and made Queen Jiang and even the line of Dongbo Hou hopeless.

Emperor Xin married Queen Jiang in order to stabilize the situation at the time, but after the situation stabilized, it became a fundamental opposition!
Since Queen Jiang took the initiative to jump out, it is obvious that someone has started to instigate behind the scenes.

Behind this is the planning of a sage, but Yin Ziyu did not take actual precautions. The Shennong line is contrary to the root of national policy, and it will be a problem sooner or later.

After all, he is now a fundamental threat to Queen Jiang, and this is the fundamental problem.

If this is the case, then just go with the flow.

Luo Shen was extremely worried: "But the right to worship is related to the foundation of the country's destiny. If it falls into the hands of others, this destiny may decline."

Yin Ziyu sighed, "This trend is difficult to stop, and what we're doing isn't meant to stop it. At least, this time our luck has fallen, and the reputation of you and me as treacherous has been washed away! Chaoge's people are turning against us, so our luck is bound to fall. We can just let it recover later!"

Just as Yin Ziyu expected, the luck really began to decline.

The Zhaixing Tower was stopped, and chaos arose because of it. The chaos caused many things that had not been discussed to start being discussed again.

However, at this time, Queen Jiang ignored all this and took people directly to find Emperor Xin.

At this time, Emperor Xin was drinking and enjoying himself with Su Daji and other beautiful women.

"Report, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. The Queen has suddenly brought people to the Sacrifice Department and has seized the sacrificial power from Yabi Gan!"

"Snapped!"

After hearing this, Emperor Xin became furious.

"Report, Your Majesty, the Empress is coming to your Majesty right now, and no one can stop her. She's accusing the Empresses of being monsters and saying she wants to execute them!"

Emperor Xin's face was suddenly filled with murderous intent.

During this period, Yin Ziyu built the Zhaixing Tower for Emperor Xin and gave him the blueprint of the Zhaixing Tower, which made Emperor Xin very happy.

With the addition of several concubines into the palace, Emperor Xin was very comfortable being served. He immediately disliked Queen Jiang, the arrogant daughter of Duke Dongbo.

Queen Jiang was too strong-willed and believed that she had stabilized the rule of the Shang Dynasty, which made her even more arrogant.

After giving birth to two sons, Yin Hong and Yin Jiao, it was basically certain that she would become the next emperor. Then Queen Jiang became more powerful, and before Emperor Xin was plotted against, she tried to hide as much as possible.

After all, it is a political marriage, so just bear with it if you can.

But the more tolerant she was, the more presumptuous Queen Jiang became.

Since Emperor Xin changed the legal system, he might not need to abide by the rules of going to Huoyun Cave a hundred years ago, which made Queen Jiang very dissatisfied.

If so, how could his lineage become the new Human Emperor?
After Yin Ziyu sent the two women into the palace, Emperor Xin suddenly discovered that the women could be so obedient to him!
Huang Feihu's sister, Huang Fei, also comes from a family of military honors. Although she is not as strong as Queen Jiang, she is not the kind of person who will obey her in everything.

Now Emperor Xin believes that his uncle Bigan is the person who understands him best.

At the same time, Emperor Xin at this time did not completely forget the discussion with Yin Ziyu and completely changed into a different person. Instead, he became manic and unable to suppress the evil nature in his heart.

Now, I didn't expect that Queen Jiang would be so crazy that she dared to openly take the power of sacrifice. This is simply lawless. Now she wants to kill her beloved concubine.

That's not bad.

At this moment, all three women acted very weak: "Your Majesty, help!"

After hearing this, Emperor Xin snorted coldly: "If she dares to come, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Report, Your Majesty, Queen Jiang has shut down the Zhaixing Tower, causing panic among the people of Chaoge and a significant decline in their fortunes."

After hearing this, Emperor Xin's face suddenly turned cold and murderous intent instantly increased.

However, not long after, Queen Jiang arrived as expected.

Queen Jiang's brocade robe rustled in the draft as she pointed her sword directly at Su Daji and the fox and rabbit demons who were huddled beside Emperor Xin.

At this time, the three beauties' hairpins and rings fell off, and they trembled like frightened birds.

"Your Majesty, help me!"

"Your Majesty, help me!"

All three of them were as weak as willows in the wind, which made Emperor Xin instantly feel protective of them!
"Your Majesty, do you have any sense of shame?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xin flew into a rage: "You crazy woman, why are you so mad?"

Upon hearing this, Queen Jiang was immediately furious. "Your Majesty, you actually called me crazy! Your Majesty, you wrote poems in Nuwa Palace that blasphemed His Majesty's authority, appointed Bigan to disrupt the government, and built the Zhaixing Tower, which wasted your luck! Where will you put the 60,000-year foundation of King Tang? As the Queen, how can I sit idly by and watch!"

After Queen Jiang finished speaking, she suddenly turned to look at Su Daji and the other two who were hiding behind Emperor Xin. Her eyes widened and she said, "Today we must kill these evil creatures that are harming the country!"

"Stop it, I am afraid!"

Emperor Xin was already in a manic state at this time. When he heard what Queen Jiang said, he suddenly overturned the table and the green jade wine cup fell to pieces.

Yin Ziyu had long seen that Emperor Xin's condition was inherently manic, which could be tolerated but not reversed.

Although he didn't know why Emperor Xin was possessed, Yin Ziyu knew that Emperor Xin was not possessed by another body, nor did he lose all his memories, but rather that some evil hidden in his nature was brought out.

As the saying goes, one thought can make you a Buddha, and one thought can make you a devil. Emperor Xin was in a state where his original heart was himself, but one thought could make him a devil.

At this time, anyone who resists will die in an unknown way.

Emperor Xin was not a patient person by nature. He was very aggressive and had a personality similar to that of Emperor Yang of Sui.

When the planner magnifies the evil in his heart tenfold or a hundredfold, his tolerance will be greatly reduced.

Emperor Xin casually pulled out a magic sword from the bedside and instantly pressed it against Queen Jiang's throat.

When Queen Jiang saw this, she was not afraid at all. Since entering the palace for so many years, Queen Jiang had become accustomed to Emperor Xin's character of putting the overall situation first.

"Your Majesty, I am trying to eliminate the evil for King Cheng Tang's 60,000-year reign. I didn't expect that Your Majesty would want to kill me. If so, Your Majesty, please kill me!" Faced with Queen Jiang's cousin who was ready to die, Emperor Xin was filled with hatred.

"Someone, press it down!"

Emperor Xin immediately summoned the palace guards and wanted to detain Queen Jiang.

"I am the queen, who dares!"

Queen Jiang slashed the guard's throat with a sword, and blood splattered on the Panlong Pillar!
Emperor Xin was completely furious at this moment: "How dare you do this!"

At this time, Su Daji said, "Your Majesty! The Queen has usurped the right to offer sacrifices. I'm afraid she has long been plotting to depose the emperor! She is even plotting to have Crown Prince Yin Jiao serve as regent!"

Su Daji entered the palace with a mission, which was to add fuel to the fire of Emperor Xin.

After hearing this, Emperor Xin's eyes suddenly turned as cold as ice.

Emperor Xin slowly walked up to Empress Jiang and grabbed her neck with his bare hands, his nails digging deep into her flesh. "You want to depose me?"

Queen Jiang glared at Emperor Xin fiercely, "Your Majesty has blasphemed the Holy Mother and offended other saints with many of his state policies. He even allowed Bigan to wreak havoc on the Shang Dynasty. Even if I depose the Crown Prince and allow him to ascend the throne, it is for the sake of establishing the Tang Dynasty!"

Without waiting for Queen Jiang's answer, Emperor Xin's murderous intent became even more violent and he could no longer control himself. After all, for the sake of his kingdom, Emperor Xin had tolerated Queen Jiang for too long.

These words of Queen Jiang deeply touched Emperor Xin's heart.

Because these national policies were discussed and implemented by Emperor Xin and Yin Ziyu. Usurping the throne was secondary, but denying everything one has is seeking death.

Emperor Xin had no doubt whether the implementation of these policies was right or wrong.

Looking at Queen Jiang's eyes filled with anger, the next moment, Emperor Xin suddenly exerted force with his other hand and gouged out Queen Jiang's eyes!

"what!"

Amid Queen Jiang's shrill screams, Emperor Xin threw her bloody eyeballs into the air.

"Kill her and go to court!"

Emperor Xin shook the blood off his hands, his tone as calm as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Queen Jiang was quickly killed by the guards, and her true spirit went straight to the List of Gods!

When Emperor Xin was about to go to court, the rabbit woman that Yin Ziyu had brought into the palace said, "Your Majesty, no matter what, Queen Jiang was still the Empress. Now that she is dead, Your Majesty should not be too harsh on her."

After hearing this, Emperor Xin was stunned: "Hahahaha, that's right, I won't blame her, I will remember her!"

Soon, all the civil and military officials came to the court, and Emperor Xin ordered people to drag Queen Jiang's body into the hall.

For a moment, all the civil and military officials in the court fell silent, and all looked at Emperor Xin in horror.

This is a big matter, and many people in Chaoge know about it, so there must be a massacre.

Yin Ziyu and Luo Shen did not come. Yin Ziyu knew that the queen would die if she entered the palace, so there was no need for him to get involved. He stopped Shang Rong who was going to court.

"Prime Minister, His Majesty is attending court, how can I not go?"

Yin Ziyu shook his head solemnly: "It is not appropriate to go on this matter. Your Majesty is trying to establish your authority. If the Prime Minister does not persuade you, he will be a traitor. If he dissuades you, he will anger Your Majesty. It is better not to go. Your Majesty will not care if the Prime Minister goes!"

"But this... this is the queen, the daughter of the Duke of Dongbo!"

Shang Rong frowned suddenly!

Yin Ziyu said, "Prime Minister, the entire Chaoge has been undercurrent for a long time. If you go there, it will be difficult to resolve it! No matter what, the overall situation comes first! Now, it is precisely because of the daughter of the Duke of Dongbo that the time has come to resolve it!"

After hearing this, Shang Rong couldn't help but sigh: "Ah!"

Shang Rong is clear about the root cause of the contradiction in this matter.

If the legal system is changed and Emperor Xin does not go to Huoyun Cave, the status of the crown prince will decline rapidly.

Moreover, the status of the queen will be infinitely reduced, and the future investments made by Duke Dongbo will not generate any returns.

Yin Ziyu said, "Empress Jiang's actions were motivated by her own reasons, but she was also being exploited to force the Duke of Dongbo to rebel and to make Your Majesty look foolish! This was simply to undermine the stability of our Cheng Tang Empire!"

Shang Rong asked, "Wouldn't the Prime Minister have stopped this from happening?"

Yin Ziyu gave a bitter laugh, "Prime Minister, why do you want to stop it? It's better to disperse than to block. If you block it this time, what about the future? If you block it this time, the Queen's resentment will grow, and this incident will still happen in the end. Besides, even if you stop it, other things will happen. It's better to let it happen and let His Majesty handle it!"

"Oh, that's all."

Shang Rong couldn't help but sigh, with some loneliness in his eyes.

Yin Ziyu knew that countless saints were behind this, and Queen Jiang's actions were not meant to truly cripple herself, because it was impossible to cripple herself.

Instead, they directly sacrificed Queen Jiang to tear apart the facade of prosperity, that was all.

This point naturally could not be hidden from Yin Ziyu, but for Yin Ziyu, since the other party had made a move, then he would just do it, the catastrophe must be pushed forward.

The death of Queen Jiang is also insignificant. The catastrophe itself is a struggle for everyone to survive, and fools must die.

Luo Shen said to Yin Ziyu, "Brother Ziyu, if this is the case, then the Shennong lineage can no longer remain neutral! The Earth Emperor of Huoyun Cave can no longer remain neutral either."

Yin Ziyu smiled faintly: "Fellow Daoist Mi Fei, do you think they will really remain neutral? If the position of the Human Emperor cannot be passed on to Yin Jiao, the seeds of conflict have already been sown. Sooner or later, they will collude with the Xuanyuan faction, it's just a matter of time!"

"Ah! Queen Jiang died in such a tragic way!"

After hearing this, Luo Shen sighed!
Yin Ziyu shook his head: "No need to sigh. When the Chan Sect consecrates gods in the future, they will definitely deify Queen Jiang as a loyal and good person of the Shang Dynasty. I estimate that her position as a god should be quite high. Perhaps even a great emperor is not impossible!"

'"ah!"

Luo Shen was shocked when he heard this.

Yin Ziyu said calmly, "By the end of the Conferred Gods Ceremony, Fellow Daoist Luoshen will have understood that many things are not as simple as they appear. Queen Jiang may not be unaware of her potential death! She may also be seeking to preserve her reputation for eternity!"

After hearing this, Luo Shen suddenly became a little hesitant. Since entering the world, she never expected that the things in this world would be so unpredictable!

While the two were talking, a figure suddenly appeared. It was the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.

"Why did Teacher Jin Ling come out of seclusion?"

The Golden Spirit Holy Mother waved her hand: "I have been paying close attention to what happened in Chaoge, and thinking about what you said about good and evil, loyalty and treachery. But today's events have given me some insights. Zi Yu, you built the Zhaixing Tower to save the country, and some people regard you as a traitor. However, the immortals from all sides in Chaoge regard it as a great favor, and they don't care what you did with the Zhaixing Tower. It can be seen that the hearts of all living beings are for profit, and if there is profit, then good is good. This Queen Jiang seems to be rebuking you and the Emperor of Humanity. She seems loyal, but in fact, she is hindering the construction of the Zhaixing Tower because the prince may not be able to ascend the throne. She is called correcting the Emperor of Humanity, but she has angered the immortals of Chaoge because they can no longer benefit from it. In this world, because of your own status, this good is neither good nor evil!"

The Golden Spirit Mother, who had never been involved in the world, after seeing the magical Chaoge, remembered Yin Ziyu's theory of good and evil, and suddenly realized a lot of things.

This is something that the Golden Spirit Mother would never understand even if she were in seclusion for ten thousand years.

Luo Shen asked, "Then who is truly good?"

The Golden Spirit Holy Mother sighed, "Only when one no longer seeks to benefit oneself at the expense of oneself can one truly comprehend the essence of good and evil! Zi Yu, in order to prevent his fortune from declining, does not care about the outside world's rumors of loyalty and treachery. This time, I have come to Chaoge. This opportunity to behead a corpse has arrived!"

After hearing this, Yin Ziyu was naturally very happy: "In that case, Ziyu congratulates Teacher Jin Ling!"

At this moment, an extremely shocking scene appeared in the hall!

Emperor Xin personally picked out all of Queen Jiang's ribs in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.

All the civil and military officials in the court watched Emperor Xin playing with the rib that was still dripping with blood.

Suddenly he ordered someone to bring the strings of a harp, placed the ribs on his knees, and plucked the strings like playing a pipa. The tuneless sound mixed with the hoarse singing echoed in the hall!

"Alas, Queen Jiang. Such a beautiful woman is hard to find."

As Emperor Xin sang, he pressed the bloody ribs to his lips and kissed them gently, his golden eyes sweeping over the trembling ministers.

The strange music that Emperor Xin played with the ribs of his deceased wife completely shattered those who dared to have evil intentions. Even Su Daji, a fox demon who had practiced for thousands of years, had never seen such a violent and crazy emperor, and was frightened to the point of trembling.

At this moment, everyone thought that Emperor Xin was simply a madman, a real madman.

"Send an order. Weizi Qi and Weizi Yan dared to rebel and must be killed. Uncle Bigan will continue to serve as the high priest. Immediately capture Yin Jiao and Yin Hong!"

This was treason, an attempt to overthrow everything he had, which touched Emperor Xin's bottom line.

When Emperor Xin issued these orders, no one dared to dissuade him.

And a Taoist suddenly appeared in the residence of Yin Jiao and Yin Hong. It was Guangchengzi of the Chan Sect!
