Zhang Zixing said to the four generals behind Huang Feihu who looked like they were facing a formidable enemy: "Four generals, there is no need to panic. I will never be detrimental to King Wu Cheng. It's just that your majesty's decree only allows King Wu Cheng to watch alone, so he must take some measures."
Little tricks.”
As soon as Huang Feihu approached, Zhang Zixing immediately cast the Purple Confusion Barrier. The four generals Huang Feibiao felt that their eyes were blurred, and the two of them had lost their place. They couldn't help being shocked. Thinking back to what the Imperial Master had just said, they made up their mind and stopped looking around at the moment.
, just wait where you are.
After Zhang Zixing arranged the purple barrier, he took out an imperial edict and handed it over to Huang Feihu - this edict was exactly what he had just written in Chaoge. It can be said to be "freshly baked", so it came so quickly, which made everyone happy.
Assessed.
Huang Feihu hurriedly knelt down to receive the order, but Zhang Zixing helped him up, saying that it was the emperor's destiny, and this time the great merchant had failed the Huang family, so he asked him to stand and receive the order. Huang Feihu was grateful, and took the order and looked at it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more his expression grew.
It was complicated, and finally he turned to the west and cried to the ground: "Feihu has failed the emperor's holy grace, and he will never be able to forgive his sin!"
The emperor's imperial edict to Huang Feihu was very low-key, and it was completely a letter of self-examination. The main idea was: The chaos in Chaoge was mainly caused by the enchantress Mei Niang, but after all, it was a big mistake. It was not because of the emperor.
It's about the emperor and his ministers. If the two princes make a big mistake, they will be severely punished and will never be tolerated. No matter where Huang Feihu plans to go, even if he joins the rebels and becomes hostile to the great merchants, the emperor will never blame him. On the emperor
In my heart, he will always be King Wucheng of the country.
Huang Feihu had never seen a king issue an imperial edict with such a tone to his ministers. He always valued friendship and received the education of foolish loyalty from his fathers since he was a child. Seeing the sincerity of the emperor's words, he also knew that the two princes were bewitched by the enchantress's sorcery, and he was deeply aware of defecting.
Having failed the emperor, he was extremely ashamed. Huang Feihu asked Xiaoyaozi to take his head back to apologize for his sins. After saying this, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself. Fortunately, Zhang Zixing had quick eyesight and quick hands, and snatched the sword away. He comforted her with words, and Huang Feihu left with a burden.
Under tremendous psychological pressure, he was no longer as strong and calm as usual at this time, and cried loudly. You said: This is a man who does not shed tears easily, but he has not yet reached the point of sadness.
"The emperor feels very sorry for the incident between General Huang and his wife. The death of Concubine Li is even more painful for the emperor. The emperor was originally injured internally during the Western Expedition and his vitality was damaged. This time he was so anxious and angry that he was even more injured.
Injured." Zhang Zixing was very satisfied with Huang Feihu's attitude, but he still did not tell the shocking secret that the queen and Huang Feiyan were not dead. He just patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Although the Quanrong army is peaceful at this time, the north is still peaceful.
There are ghosts but there is no peace, and there is an E Huan rebellion in the south. The Great Shang Dynasty needs the support of a pillar like King Wu Cheng at this time. How about you and I return to Chao Ge together?"
Huang Feihu shook his head and sighed: "Feihu is grateful for the kindness of the Imperial Master, but I have no shame in returning to Chaoge. After settling my three young sons, I want to go to the north. There are alien ghosts in the north who are causing trouble, and even
It is rampant, and I heard that the Grand Master's expedition has not been successful so far. Feihu is willing to lead his family to go there, fight to the death with the ghost, spread his blood into the country, and die to repay your kindness."
Zhang Zixing pondered for a while and said: "King Wu Cheng is indeed a loyal and righteous man, but this move is extremely inappropriate. It is like a moth flying to the flame, and his sacrifice will be in vain. I dare to ask again, does the general really want to repay the emperor's kindness?"
Huang Feihu nodded resolutely, but he really didn't want to go back to Chaoge. Even if the emperor did not blame him for his defection, he would have no face in front of the officials. Moreover, the two princes are likely to be the future heirs to the throne.
No matter how you say it, the crime will not lead to death. And his father, sister, and wife all died because of the two princes, how can he face them? What about the future? What happens when one of them ascends to the throne in the future?"
"If the general is accused of being a real rebel because of this, will the general be willing?" The Imperial Preceptor asked again as if he was worried. In fact, Huang Feihu's choice not to return to Chaoge was also expected by him, and he also prepared a third plan.
Two plans.
Huang Feihu smiled bitterly and said: "Feihu has already committed the crime of rebellion. Why did the Imperial Master say this? Even if his reputation is ruined, Feihu still has to repay the Holy Grace. There is only one thing, not to return to Chaoge."
"In that case, general, please look here." Zhang Zixing took out another imperial edict and said: "Your Majesty is really the general's confidant. He knows that the general is loyal and loyal and never forgets to serve the country. There is also a secret edict here, please take a look at it, general.
.”
Huang Feihu took it and looked at it, his expression gradually became serious, and finally nodded resolutely: "Feihu already understands your majesty's intention. Don't talk about such false reputations, even if you have to fight for this body, you must serve your majesty!"
Zhang Zixing looked pleased, nodded slightly, suddenly summoned a pot of wine, and poured a glass for Huang Feihu: "I advise you to drink another glass of wine. There will be no friends left in the five passes to the west! General, this trip is also extremely dangerous, please take more care of it!"
"
"Thank you so much, Imperial Master!" Huang Feihu knew the meaning of "no friend" and admired Xiaoyaozi, the Imperial Master who was warm-hearted and loyal to the country. He immediately picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. He felt that the wine was extremely mellow.
, seemed to have lasting energy, and I couldn’t help but praise: “Good wine!”
Zhang Zixing toasted him three times, removed the obstacles, and left immediately. When the generals saw the figures of Huang Feihu and the Imperial Preceptor suddenly appearing in the same place, they all let go of their worries. The Imperial Preceptor didn't say much,
It seemed to disappear into the air as if it were flying with the escape light.
Huang Feihu's expression was solemn and he said to the four generals: "The four brothers are my confidants, close friends of life and death. Please don't tell anyone about the fact that we just met the Imperial Master. Huang Ming, you go after the dragon ring. We'll turn back first."
Find a place to rest and get back on the road after a while."
The generals received the order and asked where they were going. Huang Feihu said two words with a firm expression: "Xiqi!"
After solving the case of Huang Feihu, Zhang Zixing immediately returned to Chaoge to look for Yinglong's whereabouts, but he only saw traces of self-destruction by bio-warriors along the way, which was shocking. However, Yinglong's whereabouts were unknown, and there was no news from Kong Xuan.
Zhang Zixing was very impatient and gritted his teeth secretly: If anything happens to this brother, he will be buried with the three immortals of Chanjiao in the future.
At this time, under the escort of Caiyun Fairy and Sister Caiyun, the female slave also came to Chaoge and met Zhang Zixing.
Regarding the issue of Yinglong's safety, Nuba has another opinion. Because after she and Yinglong practiced according to the secret techniques taught by Huangdi, they gradually formed a dual cultivation heart in the Dantian, which was somewhat similar to the golden elixir in the elixir condensation stage.
Yinglong also has this dual-cultivation heart, and the two are vaguely aware of each other. If one of them encounters an accident, the dual-cultivation heart will inevitably break. Now that the dual-cultivation heart is intact, it means that Yinglong's life is not in danger for the time being.
Zhang Zixing felt calm after hearing this, but when the female slave revealed the true identity of Mei Niang, the culprit of the Chaoge Rebellion, he was shocked: It was actually Ximei! The nine-headed pheasant spirit!
Zhang Zixing clearly remembered that the Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit had been turned into ashes by himself and Yinglong and his wife last time, so why did he come back to life? Unexpectedly, despite all calculations, he still missed the resurrection of Ximei, and the result was that
She caused such a big commotion. When mentioning Ximei, Zhang Zixing couldn't help but hate her to the core, as well as the damn Three Immortals of Chanjiao!
Zhang Zixing returned to the palace and found Zijiao still kneeling in the ancestral temple, and asked, "Why don't you see Hong'er?"
Zi Jiao replied: "That witch is extremely cunning. Hong Di was also seduced by her magic, which led to great disaster. King Wucheng turned against the court. He was so frightened that he left with the Taoist named Chi Jingjing.
.”
Zhang Zixing became even more angry when he heard that although Zi Hong was also influenced by Mei Niang, he didn't even dare to see his father and ran away.
Lift."
Zhang Zixing pondered for a while and suddenly asked: "Why don't you leave?"
Zijiao handed over the jade talisman given to him by Guangchengzi and said: "My father once said that men should be responsible. I made a big mistake and committed a heinous crime. I dare not escape. I am willing to die to thank the world."
Zhang Zixing glanced at Yufu and knew that Zijiao wanted to die and was willing to give up his life. A look of intolerance flashed in his eyes and he sighed: "Your mistake has been made, what's the use of death? Even if you die, this matter will not matter."
There is no way to be kind. For you, death is just an escape. Trying to live with guilt and doing something for the dead requires more courage than death."
Zijiao was shocked and seemed to have some realization, and asked: "How should I atone for my sins?"
"There are two ways out for you to choose. One is to stay away from Chaoge and rush to the wilderness, avoiding the world and extending my lineage of the great merchants; the other is to follow the words of Guangchengzi and join the Taoyuan Cave in Jiuxian Mountain.
, I will use my camera in the future to contribute to the big merchants.”
Zijiao did not hesitate and immediately prostrated himself: "My son is not talented, so I am willing to choose the second path!"
Seeing that he did not hesitate, Zhang Zixing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said: "You must think carefully. This matter is extremely dangerous, and it may be difficult to have good consequences in the future."
Zijiao shed tears, but his eyes were very firm: "My son has disobeyed the teachings, corrupted the imperial court, and killed his third mother, even Sun Yu... He is simply worse than a beast. Even if he died a hundred times, it would be difficult to atone for his sin. Even if there is no good fruit,
No regrets!"
Zhang Zixing helped him up and nodded slowly: "Jiao'er, don't worry about Sun Yu, I have cured her. As for your mother and aunt... I also know that you are also a victim. Your devotion to teaching is extremely important.
You must be careful about the dangers. Even if it is your closest relatives, you must not reveal even half of it. A great disaster will come to Dashang soon. It is not known whether your going here will be a blessing or a disaster. If you and I can survive in the end, what will happen again?
Continue the love between father and son."
When Zijiao heard this, he cried and bowed to the ground and could not get up for a long time.
