Chapter two hundred and nineteenth agreement and warning
Chapter 219 Promise and Warning
After a long time, Bixiao's voice came over, seeming to have made a lot of determination: "You...really want to see my true face?"
Zhang Zixing wanted to pretend to be joking and test it out. If Bixiao was angry or refused, he would immediately change his words and ask about Hunyuan Jindou's cutting of the immortal body. Unexpectedly, Bixiao's tone became looser and he was so serious. He
With a thought in his heart, he immediately stopped laughing and said, "Actually, this is exactly what I have always wanted. I want to see what the woman I have admired for a long time looks like."
When Bixiao heard the words "admired for a long time", her face couldn't help but blush. Little did she know that this "duoji" was indeed true to its name. To be precise, it was n years later in a parallel space. At that time, someone
While watching "The Romance of the Gods", I felt deeply sorry for the three female fairies who died in the Yellow River formation. Now that "someone" has the opportunity to be reborn in this strange world, the meaning of "rescue" naturally arises. The meaning of salvation
There are several meanings, and his "rescue" of Empress Bixiao is definitely the most ambiguous one, because he really fell in love with her.
Zhang Zixing's words should be regarded as a kind of confession. Bixiao felt her heart beating so hard that she couldn't even suppress it with her magic power. In order to cover up her thoughts, she deliberately hummed: "Don't try to seduce me with sweet words!
Ever since you gave Nezha the digital camera, you have been coveting my sister's appearance, and then you have tried every means to get Nezha to ask about our appearance, are you pretending that I don't know?"
Zhang Zixing chuckled and said: "To tell you the truth, I was indeed curious back then. Unfortunately, little Nezha was too ignorant. Not only did he fail to complete the task, but he even took the digital camera into his pocket. It's a pity. Listen.
Zha said, you three sisters are all extremely beautiful, so I really want to have a glimpse of the beauty."
Bixiao sighed softly and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you have wasted your efforts. Even in front of Nezha, my sister has never shown her true appearance. What the disciples on the island see are all our illusions.
, my sister's true appearance... is really strange and extremely ugly, so Master gave me a mask to cover it up."
Zhang Zixing didn't care about this. If Bixiao really cared about his appearance, he had many ways. Even the female demon cursed by the Golden Mother of Yaochi could become the beauty she is today, let alone Bixiao.
He said indifferently: "Back then, I did have the intention to peek at the faces of the three of you, but now it is different. I just want to see the true face of the woman I like, not her two sisters. Even if she is no longer
No matter how ugly it is, I don't care."
Seeing that he said it so straightforwardly, Bixiao remained silent for a while, and then said quietly after a long while: "I lost the bet to you, so I can't regret it. Since you have made such a decision, I just hope that you won't regret it then.
"
"How could I regret it? Just wait a moment, I will be at Sanxian Island in no time!"
Bixiao heard the joy in his words and chuckled: "You are too impatient! My two sisters and I are about to go into seclusion to practice and comprehend the highest secrets of the Shangqing Immortal Art. It will take at least a year before we can get out of seclusion. I am worried about you.
I want to come to Sanxian Island to fulfill my promise. If you contact me at this time, it just solves my worries, and I can retreat in peace."
At least a year? Zhang Zixing felt a little disappointed, but in any case, Bixiao finally agreed to his request and said immediately: "The day you leave seclusion will be when I go to Sanxian Island again, taking Kong Xuan with me."
Come and rob me, and I will snatch you back to Chaoge!"
Bixiao was happy in her heart, but said: "Humph! Take back Chaoge? What a good idea on your part! Do you think I am stupid and naive? Although Kong Xuan is powerful, he is just a mysterious immortal. Watch out if I go to Biyou Palace
Master, ask him to protect my consumer rights!"
Seeing that she started using words randomly again, Zhang Zixing couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't think wrongly, for a pure person like me, even if I take you to Chaoge, I will just worship you like a queen.
What’s on your mind?”
He added in his mind: This "empress" is naturally the empress in the harem...
When Bixiao heard that he claimed to be pure, he spat unceremoniously. The two of them joked and joked for a while, and Zhang Zixing said: "Bixiao, you can practice with peace of mind and don't have other distractions. I will come to Sanxian Island by then to meet you."
Take a moment."
This was the first time Bixiao heard him formally address her by her first name and express caring words. She felt a strange feeling in her heart and said softly: "When I leave seclusion, I will send Nezha to tell me. You must be alone in front of me."
Come……"
Zhang Zixing was overjoyed and was about to speak when Bixiao shyly turned off the communicator.
He wanted to ask her again about the solution to the sealing of the Shura Fairy's body, but Bixiao had shut down and could not contact her again. However, this "luck" was really an unexpected surprise. If everything went well, it would be
Even Bixiao's entire body is his, so why worry about not having a solution for Hunyuan Jindou?
For now, what he has to do is to wait for Hanzhixian's elixir to be refined and help Kong Xuan and Yinglong to fully recover, while he concentrates on understanding the mystery of the Nine Palaces Demon Banner and digesting the huge power of the nine words, improving
Her own strength. As for Daji, although she may like Xiaoyaozi a little, she is the bane sent by Nuwa after all. The hope of her betraying Nuwa is very slim, so it is better to wait and see how it changes.
Xiqi.
After Ji Chang's return, the effect was immediate, and the people of Xiqi were greatly boosted and more united. Ji Chang announced a series of measures to benefit the people and ordered the construction of a spiritual platform to escape the thousands of resentful souls who died due to the invasion of the Dog Rong from the east.
received a positive response from the people of Xiqi. After the construction of the spiritual platform was successful, Ji Chang led civil and military officials to pay homage in person, and everyone admired it.
Ji Chang also issued a notice to calm the people, calling on the princes and the general public in the west to "obey the law, do not act rashly, do not violate morality, and fulfill the integrity of ministers." He also emphasized that "among the five ethics, only the kindness of the emperor and relatives is the most important.
The foundation of "loyalty, filial piety and righteousness should be put first". The emperor personally went on a military expedition to relieve the danger of the Western Land and put down the rebellion of the Quanrong. The princes and people of the Western Land were all grateful. Xibo Hou Jichang's theory of loyalty to the emperor and loving the people immediately gained support from all over the Western Region.
It received unanimous praise and was even published in the latest issue of "Dashang Quarterly".
Thanks to Ji Chang's efforts, the people of the West were united and united, and the work of reassuring the people and rebuilding went very smoothly. However, the light of Ji Fa, the "Dai Xi Bohou" who was originally well-received, was suddenly overshadowed. When people mentioned Ji Fa
, all praised "a good father has no foolish son" instead of the original "excellent talents, no less than his father". Ji Fa was still respectful and filial on the surface, but the hidden gloom in his eyes was getting thicker and thicker.
On this day, in the Xibohou Mansion, Ji Chang, his second son Ji Fa, Ji Dan and his ministers San Yisheng, Nangong Shi was discussing matters.
Ji Dan is the younger brother of Ji Fa's mother and the fourth son of Ji Chang. He is also called Shu Dan. Because he was granted the title of Zhou Yuan, he is also called Zhou Gongdan. Zhou Gongdan is a famous politician and military strategist in history.
A thinker and educator, he was revered as the "Yuan Sage" by later generations. He made rituals, music, and established regulations and systems. His remarks can be found in various chapters of Zhou Shu in "Shang Shu". He was revered as the founder of Confucianism and was also the ancient sage most revered by Confucius.
A considerable part of Zhang Zixing's "Dashang Rites and Music" plagiarized his later ideas and practices.
Ji Chang was well aware of Ji Dan's talents and promoted him to be his right-hand man when he came back, alongside Ji Fa. Although Ji Fa was unhappy about this, Shu Dan had a close relationship with him since he was a child, and he was a compatriot from the same mother.
Since he is following his lead, he is not too conflicted.
What the five people discussed was Xiqi's military priorities.
Nangong Shi heard that Ji Chang wanted to reduce the existing troops, return them to the people, and strengthen the post-war reconstruction of the West, and quickly dissuaded him. Nangong Shi's opinion was that the strength of the army is the foundation of a country and must not be reduced easily. This time the Quanrong
The invasion relied on these elite soldiers and generals to successfully resist the powerful offensive of Quanrong and persist until the arrival of the emperor's own army. If the army is reduced now, it will be difficult to cope with any changes in the future.
San Yisheng raised objections, saying that the biggest enemy of the West is the Quanrong. This time the Quanrong were defeated by the emperor, and even the royal city was destroyed. They can no longer recover. The West is currently seriously damaged by the war and is in urgent need of labor.
For construction, some soldiers can be temporarily sent back and recruited again when needed in the future.
Ji Fa strongly agreed with Nangong Shi's opinion and suggested that we should take advantage of this great opportunity after the war to further expand our military strength to prepare for emergencies.
Seeing Ji Fa's persistence, San Yisheng couldn't say any more. Ji Chang looked at Ji Fa, who wanted to expand his army, frowned, and turned his attention to Ji Dan. Although Ji Dan was young, he was quite talented, and immediately gave him
Come up with a compromise strategy: instead of disbanding the army, let the soldiers assist the people in building and working together, as one of the main tasks of the army at this stage. This can not only improve the father's prestige, but also strengthen the cohesion between the army and the people.
, and can also maintain the combat effectiveness and current organization of the army.
As long as we lay a good "mass foundation", even if we need to recruit more soldiers for war in the future, we can respond to all calls.
This idea has the meaning of "military and civilian family" in later generations. It seems that the later celebrity "Zhou Gongdan" is indeed well-deserved. When Ji Chang heard this, he showed a look of relief, and San Yisheng and Nangong Shi also praised it repeatedly. Ji Fa's heart surged
He was jealous, but he met his father Ji Chang's clear eyes. He immediately hid his thoughts and expressed his agreement loudly.
Afterwards, Ji Chang left Ji Fa alone.
Ji Chang asked: "Fa'er, what is the purpose of your repeated requests to expand the army this time?"
Ji Fa evaded a few words, unable to resist the questioning, so he had to say: "Now the situation in the world is not yet clear. I heard that Taishi's Northern Expedition has been unstoppable. Chonghou Hu and E Huan are in a stalemate. Dongbohou Jiang Huanchu's fiefdom has been cut off, and Dongbohou Jiang Huan's fiefdom has been cut.
Qi also has resentment in his heart. Among the four princes, three are already unstable. Today, we are obsessed with women and are getting more and more confused. Just in case, it is better to make plans early."
Ji Chang showed an angry look: "You traitor! How can you make such nonsense! If the emperor is ignorant, how can he defeat the dog soldiers?"
Ji Fa repeatedly complained, then took a step closer and whispered: "There are no outsiders here. Father, please listen to what the child has to say. The emperor is lustful, careless, and greedy for enjoyment. This is what I witnessed with my own eyes last time. This time Victory Dog Rong is actually
Because of the help of strangers, if not for this, we would have been completely defeated. Someone once declared that the world is about to be in chaos, and a new master will be born. Father, it is better to prepare early, so as not to fall behind others and regret it too late!"
Ji Chang glanced at his son in surprise and shouted: "Shut up! I have lived in the northwest for generations, sat in charge of Duifang, and commanded the heads of two hundred princes. I am deeply grateful to the Holy Father. Even if there is a serious suspicion of assassination this time, it is also the fault of the emperor."
Pardon, such a great kindness cannot be repaid by a hundred deaths. I should never give up my title as king and minister for the rest of my life! Even if the emperor really has bad virtues and even the king is full of evil, we must not live up to him. We must know that when a minister attacks a king, a subordinate will attack a superior.
It is truly an act of treason! If you do something wrong, you will be infamed for all eternity! If you listen to the nonsense of those sorcerers again and are unwilling to surrender, don’t blame me for not caring about the love between father and son!"
Ji Fa was also a little surprised by his father's resolute attitude. He was silent for a while and then said: "My father warned me that the children should bear it in mind. In fact, it is not that the children have any arrogance. It's just because my brother Boyi died unjustly in Kao Ge. Somewhat dissatisfied."
Speaking of his deceased eldest son, Ji Chang felt a heavy pain in his heart, and stared sharply into Ji Fa's eyes: "I know Boyikao's death well, so don't say anything more!"
Ji Fa felt that his father's sharp eyes seemed to penetrate his own soul, and he couldn't help but feel weak in his heart. He thought to himself: Could it be that Jiang Ziya's spell on his mother failed? His mother told his father the truth about Boyikao's death?
The more Ji Fa thought about it, the more afraid he became. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at his father: "I understand, kid."
"When I went to Chaoge, I sent Yisheng to bring back a letter, instructing you to love your brothers and show mercy to the people. Do you still remember it?"
Ji Fa tried his best to suppress his nervousness and said respectfully: "Of course the child will remember."
Ji Fa's face showed sadness: "Although I have hundreds of sons, I treat them equally and cherish them all as much as their lives. Now that I have lost Boyikao, I don't want to lose any more sons, including you or Dan'er. Do you understand?"
Ji Fa felt his heart beating very hard and did not dare to say anything more, so he nodded.
Ji Chang stared at Ji Fa for a long time, and saw that he never dared to raise his head. He couldn't help but sigh, and said with a tired face: "You should go back home and rest. You need to remember what your father just said, and don't think too much!"
Ji Fa quickly said yes and retreated. Along the way, he felt that his underwear was soaked with cold sweat.
