Honghuang: I, Styx, start the reporting system
Chapter 239 Qishan Vision
Shen Gongbao left the ancestral land of the human race with many worries, but the moment he left, the expression on his face changed, he suppressed all his worries and returned to his original appearance.
At this point, it's useless to say anything. It's better to take one step at a time.
He set foot on the road to Xiqi again.
This time, in order to avoid encountering anything again, he almost didn't focus on anything else and ran all the way to Xiqi as quickly as possible.
"finally reached."
After a period of traveling day and night, Shen Gongbao looked at the human city in front of him and finally showed a relaxed expression.
But, how should he express his intention?
If he went in hastily now, he might arouse Xibohou's suspicion, so he had to think of a way.
"Have it!"
Shen Gongbao's eyes lit up.
In fact, self-recommendation is also a method, but people all have bad natures, and they will inevitably have a bit of contempt for those who come to their door.
Only by letting Xibohou and others come to see him can he get the greatest attention.
Shen Gongbao flew away, ready to implement his plan.
At this time, in Xiqi City, a group of Xiqi senior officials gathered together.
Among them were Ji Chang and his children.
"Dad, King Zhou is becoming more and more stupid now. During this period, he is demanding more and more tribute from us. If this continues, even we, Xiqi, will not be able to hold on!"
Ji Fa looked at the tribute list sent by the merchants with anger on his face.
"Such King Zhou is no longer worthy of your allegiance!"
To be honest, Xiqi should be considered relatively wealthy among the human princes. Even Xiqi couldn't stand the tribute demands of the Great Shang, let alone the other human princes.
"Silence! This is what you can say!" Xibohou originally had a bitter look on his face, but after hearing Ji Fa's words later, he stopped him from continuing.
They, Xiqi, don't have the ability to go against Da Shang now. Does Ji Fa say this because he thinks that Xiqi, his wife, is living too peacefully?
If someone heard this, the consequences would be disastrous.
Ji Fa originally wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ji Chang and swallowed what he had not finished.
At this time, Boyikao saw this and took over the conversation: "Father, we are all here, so we don't have to worry too much. In fact, what my brother said is right. Today's big businessmen are really not as good as before. "
Under King Zhou's deliberate arrangement, during this period of time, the merchants' demands for tribute from various princes had increased a lot.
The various princes were naturally dissatisfied with this, but King Zhou insisted on going his own way and directly labeled those princes who expressed dissatisfaction as wanting to rebel.
Nowadays, the great merchants are still very powerful, and there are also Buddhists who secretly want to help. At this time, they are labeled as rebels, and what awaits them is naturally a powerful blow from the great merchants.
So in order to save their lives, everyone could only hold their noses and admit it.
The reason why King Zhou increased the tribute was actually because the treasury of Dashan was not enough to sustain King Zhou's extravagant life!
This is like not even pretending.
If the reason given by King Zhou was to benefit the people, then the princes from all walks of life would not dare to say anything no matter how dissatisfied they were.
But they actually gave such a reason. How could they be willing? Although he accepted it on the surface, he secretly criticized King Zhou a lot.
They Xiqi inquired and learned that even Bigan and Wen Zhong, two important ministers among the officials of the great merchants, were very dissatisfied with King Zhou's behavior and had many disputes with King Zhou in the court.
How could Ji Chang not know about Boyi Kao? He sighed and said: "As a father, I know what you are talking about, but how can we, Xiqi, have enough ability to resist Dashang?"
They are just one of the various princes. If all the princes unite to resist the Great Shang, there may be some chance of victory, but it is hard to say if they are Xiqi alone.
What's more, Dashang still has so many powerful immortals, which Xiqi has never had.
After hearing Ji Chang's words, Ji Fa and Boyikao also fell into silence.
Ji Chang is right, in terms of human army alone, they are not as good as Dashang, but this is not bad, they can make up for it with their good military quality, equipment, military tactics, command and even the right time and place.
But in terms of the Immortal Family, although Xiqi also has some Immortal Family protection, how can it compare to Dachang who has an entire Buddhist backing?
"Report!"
Just as they were silent, an anxious announcement suddenly came from outside.
Before Ji Chang summoned Boyikao and Ji Fa to discuss the matter, he had already ordered that no one should be disturbed. But now there are still people anxiously reporting, so something big must have happened.
He hurriedly went out and asked, "What happened!"
The boy who reported the news was panting, and after finally calming down a little, he hurriedly said to Ji Chang: "Report to the Marquis, there is something strange on our Qishan Mountain in Xiqi, and just now there is a colorful stream of light flowing on it, which lasts for a long time. !”
With that said, the boy pointed a direction to Ji Chang.
Ji Chang looked in that direction, and there was indeed a colorful stream of light, which was really beautiful.
He was so happy that even Boyikao and Ji Fa came out to congratulate him: "Congratulations, father. There is such a vision on Qishan Mountain. It must have been sent down by heaven to reward father!"
This Qishan Mountain is the tallest mountain among their Xiqi Mountains. The founders of Xiqi Mountain used Qishan Mountain as the foundation to build a huge Xiqi Mountain.
It can be said that this Qishan Mountain is of great significance to them, Xiqi. Now that there is a sudden vision, how can they not be happy?
Ji Chang immediately ordered: "Send someone quickly to escort me to Qishan!"
He wants to find out!
As the person in power in Xiqi for many years, Ji Chang understands that this is an opportunity to make his rule over Xiqi more stable, and even an opportunity to take himself a step further.
"Yes!"
Boyikao and Ji Fa looked at each other and saw joy in their brothers' eyes.
Ji Chang may still have some hesitation about resisting the big merchants, but Boyikao and Ji Fa have no such hesitation, so the two of them will continue to explain the pros and cons to Ji Chang, just to make Ji Chang make up his mind to resist the merchants.
In their view, the current King Zhou is no longer qualified to continue to be the ruler of the human race, so why can't they replace him?
Didn't the Great Shang also rebel against the Xia Dynasty and then take control of the entire human race? Dashi can do it, so why can't they?
Boyikao and Ji Fa followed Ji Chang. Under the protection of their guards, they soon set foot on Qishan Mountain and followed the direction of the vision.
There is no doubt that the person who caused the disturbance on Qishan Mountain is Shen Gongbao.
