Chapter 109 The Strange Destruction of the Pingling King

After everyone was silent for a long time, San Yisheng looked around and said first, "I think the second prince Jifa is suitable for the next monarch!" There are two reasons. One is that although the eldest prince is diligent and loves the people and governs the country, we all know that he has rarely read military books and classics since he was a child, and he is not very happy with political affairs. In this way, I'm afraid it is not appropriate to let the eldest prince be the next monarch. On the other hand, although the second prince Ji Fa is not the eldest son of the lord, he has been familiar with various military codes since he was a child. And he is so bold that he is good at the art of horseback, not like a big prince, good at the way of rhythm!"

As soon as San Yisheng's words fell, there were four sages and eight handsome people who came out to oppose it. One of them was young and looked awe-inspiring, but it was Ji Gongdan, that is, Zhou Gongdan, who was the general of Xiqi and one of the four sages.

Zhou Gongdan is the fourth son of Ji Chang. He has respected the etiquette since he was a child. He is polite and does not dare to exceed it at all. At this time, he saw San Yisheng actually want to make Ji Fa the next monarch. He couldn't help shouting, "It is true that the second brother Ji Fa is more suitable to be a monarch, but the eldest brother Boyi Kao is the eldest son and grandson, and he has been a monarch since ancient times. The throne is inherited by the eldest son. Unless the eldest son died early or there is an order from the previous monarch himself, how can he surpass this custom handed down from ancient times?

After a pause, Zhou Gongdan continued to say, "My father died abruptly. Before he could appoint the next crown prince, he had passed away. In this way, we should let the eldest brother Boyi take over the throne. Maybe the eldest brother is a little lack of courage and too emotional, but we can all know that the eldest brother has begun to work long ago. Studying the strategy of military tactics is also to study the way of governing the country for a long time, and then supplemented by your talents, you can deal with the affairs of the country properly inside and outside!"

After listening, San Yisheng frowned slightly, and then asked Jiang Ziya, "I don't know what the Prime Minister means?"

Jiang Ziya touched the white beard under the sea and pondered for a moment. Then he said lightly, "I think the second prince Ji Fa is suitable for the next monarch, because the second prince is very familiar with the strategy of war and the way of governing the country, and knows that people are good at using it. He is willing to listen to other people's opinions and has his own opinions. He is brave and bold. Everything, this is the quality that a wise lord should have, so if it starts from my intention, the second prince is the best monarch. Of course, this has to be seen by the meaning of the people!"

Then Jiang Ziya looked at the Qinglian Taoist and said lightly, "I don't know who the Qinglian Taoist priest thinks should be the next monarch?"

Qinglian Taoist laughed when he heard the words and said, "Do you need to say more about this matter? I must support the Boyi exam!"

"Oh?" Jiang Ziya raised his eyebrows and said, "Why?"

Qinglian Taoist looked at Jiang Ziya strangely, like an idiot, and said lightly, "Is it not enough to show everything with my identity as a master of Boyi?"

Jiang Ziya immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Qinglian Taoist priest, this matter of governing the country should not be impulsed. You need to consider all aspects!"

"Poverty Tao is an outsider. He doesn't know the way to govern the country, and he acts as he likes. If I am interested in the throne, it is feasible for him to give him a few right-handed assistants!"

The Qinglian Taoist said a faint sentence, and then he stopped talking. At this time, Nan Gongshi, the general who frowned, said again, "I don't think we need to discuss who should be the current monarch at this time. Today's Xiqi can be said to be in danger. If you don't pay attention, it, it will be ashes and smoke will disappear. At that time, the country will disappear. What's the use of having a crown prince!"

After a pair of tigers staring at the people around him, Nangong Shi said again, "At this time, I, Xiqi, am already on the forefront of the storm. Countless people are watching how we deal with the current situation. Since we have decided to continue the Northern Expedition to Chonghou Tiger, let those persecuted people stand up. To refute the rumor on the Lord's trip, then the Northern Expedition was on the string and had to be fired. If everything went well and Chonghouhu was killed, the reputation of the Lord would naturally be recovered to a certain extent at that time, but have you ever thought about how Chaoge would treat Xiqi in the future?

When asked by this question, everyone was stunned, and then they were shocked. No matter how ferocious and domineering Chonghou Tiger was, he was, but after all, he was the important minister of Yin Shang. How could he allow himself and others to be strangled like this? At that time, Yin agreed that he would press the rebel flag on Xiqi again and send a large army to suppress it.

"I think everyone has known the situation that Xiqi will face after the Northern Expedition. Xiqi is about to be in the midst of war. There are many crises, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will disappear. In this way, the most important thing to solve at present is to work together to solve Xiqi's current plight, not to kill each other for the throne here. Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has been bloody. After a struggle, the national strength must have lost too much. With the current power of Xiqi, can it really bear it? I'm afraid that when the eldest prince and the second prince decide the winner, the Yin and Shang army will have destroyed Xiqi!"

The seven halls were silent again, and everyone was silent for a long time. After half an hour, Jiang Ziya sighed and said, "That general has a good strategy. After all, the lord of this country is indispensable!"

Nangong Shi heard the words and said lightly: "This matter is simple. Let the two princes go out with the army in the future. It is enough for people to deal with the domestic affairs. Let's solve the external problems in Xiqi. At that time, in the battlefield, it depends on the performance of the two sons. Whoever has strong ability is the next crown prince. When the external problems are solved, the new crown prince will succeed to the throne. At that time, it's not good to have the best of both worlds?

After hearing this, Jiang Ziya and others couldn't help sighing and said, "The general's words are very good!"

Qinglian Taoist looked at Nangong Shi again in surprise. His face remained unchanged, but he said secretly in his heart, "This man should not be underestimated. Originally, this battle for the throne was a plan for a long time to let Xiqi consume his strength, but it was solved by Nangong Shi's understatement. It seems that it still needs to be planned. This Nangongshi"

After the discussion, everyone dispersed separately. The Qinglian Taoist also returned to Boyi's mansion and asked, "What do you think about the throne?"

When Boyi Kao heard the words, he was silent for a long time and bowed and said, "Master, the disciples are not very interested in the throne, but if they want to make Jifa the crown prince, I don't agree. I suspect that all the changes in the previous trip to Chaoge are caused by Ji Fa. If so, then Ji Fa may be the final let The culprit of my father's early death. It has nothing to do with him if he wants to kill me. Since ancient times, there have been many brothers and sisters who have been maid for the throne. I can understand this, but it is absolutely impossible for my father to die early!"

Speaking of this, Boyi Kao suddenly raised his head, stared at him, and said, "Master, as a son of man, he can't do his filial piety. Yi Kao is very sad in his heart. He thought that my father had been trapped for more than ten years before he returned to Xiqi. I still had the future and did his best filial piety, so he died. In this way, I did not rule out the suspicion of Ji Fa. Before, I absolutely disagreed that he was the crown prince!"

Qinglian Taoist nodded faintly and said, "It's so good. As a teacher, I know how to deal with it. You can continue to wear filial piety for your father!"

After Bo Yi's examination left, Qinglian Taoist man frowned slightly and thought to himself, "I didn't expect that Boyi Kao's resentment about this matter was so much. It seems that the cause of Ji Chang's death must not be known to Bo Yi Kao, otherwise he would not let Bo Yi Kao complain to death, but who was the white-haired old man he met in the imperial song? "

When the Qinglian Taoist frowned, in Chaoge City and Wenzhong Mansion, Shen Gongbao, Huang Feihu, Bigan and Wenzhong gathered together to discuss major events.

I saw Wen Zhong's anger rushing to the sky, with a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes staring round, and the beard under the sea also stood straight down. Wen Zhong patted the table and roared, "What a Pingling king, my mother just issued a decree to tell Ji Chang's affairs to the world, and he rebelled. Are you really not afraid of God's punishment?"

Huang Feihu also snorted coldly and said, "Now these princes around my business are surging. It seems that they are not very quiet. If the matter of the Pingling King is not solved quickly, I'm afraid that more princes will rebel at that time, and the big business will be really dangerous!"

Then Huang Feihu got up, held the tiger's fist, and said, "Master, the last general is willing to lead the troops there, and the Pingling King will quickly suppress and kill, so that this evil wind will not endanger my business!"

Shen Gongbao sat aside, frowned and silent. When he learned about the rebellion of King Pingling, he was also slightly shocked. Unexpectedly, King Pingling rebelled at this time, which was really intriguing.

Hearing Huang Feihu's words, Shen Gongbao immediately said, "Wu Cheng, this matter still needs to be discussed. This Pingling City is located on the edge of the East China Sea. If the army wants to go here, it is the closest to pass through the Youhun Pass. However, at this time, Jiang Huanchu is sending a large army to attack, but it is inconvenient to march, so it has to The territory of Nanbohou or Beibohou turned around, but the road was pulled away. After a long journey, it was really not good to attack Pingling City, and I don't know how much time it will take. Let's discuss it!"

"The words of the national master are polite. Maybe it's good for the Northern Marquis to send troops to suppress the rebellion of the King of Pingling. After all, the territory of the Northern Marquis is very close to Pingling City!" It's lighter than dry.

After hearing this, Zhong shook his head slightly and said in a low voice, "But Xiqi is going to act against the Northern Marquis. I'm afraid that the Northern Marquis will not dare to divide the troops to suppress the Pingling King!"

When Shen Gongbao and others heard the words, they couldn't help nodding, and then fell into silence and thought about a good policy.

At this moment, suddenly an urgent report came from outside the hall: "Master, urgent report at the border gate!"

"Come in!" Wen Zhong frowned and said in a low voice.

As soon as the words fell, the outside of the hall immediately rushed into a soldier, holding a letter, handed it to Wen Zhong, and then said, "The border gate urgently reported that King Ping was destroyed!"

"Huh?" Wen Zhong was surprised, and then quickly opened the letter. After a slight look, he then handed it over to Shen Gongbao and others for circulation. He wondered, "Who was the king of Pingling destroyed by?" Why did someone send a message before that the King of Pingling rebelled?

The soldier immediately returned: "The king of Pingling rebelled with a flag. He sent the information back to the master with a whip at the border gate. However, less than half a day later, when the detectives explored again, they found that the Pingling King and others had completely disappeared. Although this matter was strange, we did not dare not report it. In this way, we returned again. Pass the message!"

"All disappeared in less than half a day?" Huang Feihu said doubtfully.

"The villain dares not talk nonsense, but there are lies, and he is willing to accept the military law and capital punishment!"

"You can go down and rest for a while. Thank you for your hard work!" Wen Zhong said lightly, and the soldiers listened. After saluting respectfully, they retreated.

After everyone finished passing the letter, they were silent. After a long time, Shen Gongbao said lightly, "As mentioned in the letter, King Pingling and others disappeared out of thin air, and the people in the city were safe, but King Pingling and the ministers and soldiers of King Pingling disappeared, and there was no trace of the withdrawal of the army outside the city. And there are traces of fighting in Pingling City. All the armaments in the Pingling King's mansion and the place where the armaments are stored have been looted, and all the silver is not left. Is this robbed by some robbers?

"What kind of robber is so powerful that he will rob a prince, and kill King Pingling and a group of generals and soldiers in a short period of time. What's more strange is that he will rob after King Pingling announced a rebellion?" Bi Gan shook his head and said puzzledly.

Huang Feihu was also puzzled and pointed to the letterpad and said, "It is said that when King Pingling rebelled, there were still some generals and soldiers who did not agree to rebel, so they were imprisoned somewhere in the city by King Pingling, but all the generals and soldiers such as King Pingling disappeared, but these soldiers survived safely!"

Wen Zhong also frowned and said, "The strangest thing is that all the people in the city don't know who did it. It seems that their memories about that period have disappeared. Is this the work of a master? But how can the master like that little secular armaments and grain and silver?

After meditating for a long time, Shen Gongbao said lightly, "This matter is really weird. Isn't there really a divine punishment coming?"

The other three people shook their heads and smiled when they heard the words. It may be possible to fool others, but how could Wen Zhong and others believe that there was such a coincidence in the world? Although this matter was strange, they were sure that it was man-made.

"Who on earth did it?" Wen Zhong was puzzled and said, "But if you look carefully, this person must be helping our big businessman, otherwise he will not destroy a group of Pingling King and others in a short time after King Pingling announced the rebellion!"

"Haha!" Shen Gongbao suddenly laughed and said, "Anyway, this is a good thing for us. King Wu Cheng doesn't have to suffer from the march. As for who did this matter, just let the poor road check it out. After all, the poor road is not a big deal, unlike everyone who needs to work on the country, haha!"

After hearing this, Wen Zhong and others all looked at each other and smiled. They no longer frowned. They only heard Wen Zhong laugh and said, "In this matter, there was Lao Guoshi who went to work. Haha, my great business was lucky. As soon as the king of Pingling and other evil thieves rebelled, someone destroyed them. Haha, after the national master will find out the matter, I want my mother to issue another notice to let the world People know the consequences of rebellion!"

All four of them smiled, and then Shen Gongbao resigned from Taishi Mansion and flew to Pingling City in the East China Sea. As for Nian Lingyan, Liu Er and Jingwei, Shen Gongbao had let them practice together. In this way, don't disturb them.
