Marshal Deng of the Conferred God

Chapter 47
Xiqi.

Knowing that Nezha's magic weapon was completely robbed by Deng Jiugong, and even the fairy rope that he was afraid of leaving his grandson was taken by him, Jiang Ziya was so angry that he vomited blood, and fell ill in bed that night.

He is a proud person. Even if he has done odd jobs of carrying water and chopping firewood in Kunlun Mountains for 40 years, he has never thought of going down the mountain and living in a different way after learning that he has no destiny to become a fairy. He believes in one thing , we must persist in doing it without hesitation.Facing Deng Jiugong, he had planned all his plans, but he was still at a disadvantage everywhere. He was always suffocating in his heart. In addition, two apprentices died in the battlefield one after another. Qi and blood are not smooth, and the root cause of the disease that has been accumulated for several months suddenly aggravates, so he fainted.

"Mr. Xiang just has trouble with his qi and blood, and he has become ill due to stagnation. He will be fine after taking a few medicines and recuperating for a few days."

After the doctor saw the illness, he got up and wrote a prescription, then handed the prescription to Yang Jian, and asked him to take the medicine according to the prescription.

Yang Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Mister, you have worked hard. If the prime minister's condition changes, I will trouble you to come to the prime minister's mansion." Uncle Jiang fainted in public, which really shocked the generals, but it was just a minor illness that healed.

"It should be, Mr. Xiang works hard for the affairs of the state and sees a doctor for him. It is an old man's duty to do so."

Yang Jian nodded and asked the housekeeper to take a few taels of silver to send the doctor out of the house.After doing this, he stepped forward to take a look, and saw that Jiang Ziya was awake at this moment, so he said softly: "Uncle, you must take care of your health, and don't get angry."

Jiang Ziya sighed: "Yang Jian, do you think we can enter Chaoge and overthrow Shang Zhou?"

The successive blows have damaged Jiang Ziya's confidence. He is over 70 years old and has no children under his knees. If he can't assist King Wu in his lifetime to establish a king's career, it will be a waste of time.

Yang Jian said in a deep voice: "Uncle, you must not talk nonsense. Cheng Tang should be destroyed, and Zhou De should be prosperous. This is the number of days."

Jiang Ziya smiled wryly, and said, "But we have been on the battlefield again and again. Now that Deng Jiugong's strength has greatly increased, how should we fight this battle?" The three words Deng Jiugong have almost become his lingering nightmare.

"This……"

Yang Jian was taken aback, a few months ago, when Deng Jiugong first came to Xiqi, there were only a few capable people under him, and Xiqi was still defeated at that time.Now Deng Jiugong has a lot of talents under his command, and even his own strength has greatly increased. Yang Jian has little confidence in whether he can be eliminated.

As a general, if you speak according to the facts, how can you talk like Tu Xingsun?

Having practiced Taoism for so many years, Yang Jian has always been a young talent who has no lack of confidence. He is confident that he can assist Jiang Ziya to achieve some achievements, and in the future he can become a fairy with his merits.But Deng Jiugong's existence was like a mountain, blocking his way.

Seeing this, Jiang Ziya smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "Just one Deng Jiugong is so powerful, how can we know that there are no more powerful people in the other dozen or so groups of soldiers and horses. Our number is limited now, and we can't afford to lose."

In his own hands, he has lost five of the three generations of disciples of Chanjiao, and two of them are his disciples. Such a battle has never been fought before.

Yang Jian pondered for a while, and said: "Master, no matter what you think, but I believe in the number of days, as long as the time comes, Deng Jiugong will be wiped out. How arrogant Zhao Gongming was before, when the time comes, he will be killed Even his two disciples were not spared from the fate of Death Daoxiao. People who are born with Dafa can be cured by those who have their own Dafa. Deng Jiugong can win for a while, but he can't win forever.

"That's all I'm saying. As the commander of an army, how dare I forget the mission assigned by my master. When I recover from my illness, we will still fight Deng Jiugong until he is completely wiped out."

Yang Jian cupped his hands and said: "Master is wise, and this disciple is willing to help Master to make meritorious deeds as soon as possible."

At this moment, the butler turned around and came back, and said loudly, "Master Xiang, the king is here."

Jiang Ziya was startled, and he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly put on his clothes and went to the bed to meet the king. Yang Jian followed behind him step by step.

"Old minister, Yang Jian pays homage to the king."

Ji Fa stepped forward to help Jiang Ziya, seeing his sick face, which seemed to have aged a few years, he said with concern: "Father Xiang, you have always been in good health, so why did you suddenly get sick? I am worried, so I came to visit you. "

Jiang Ziya is the pillar of Xiqi. If something happens to him, half of Xiqi's sky will collapse, so how can he resist the imperial army.

Jiang Ziya said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. The old minister is fine, but he has suffered from some wind and cold. He will be fine after a few days of recuperation."

As he said that, he hurriedly led Ji Fa to the front hall for tea.

Ji Fa glanced at him, sighed, and said, "Father Xiang, I have a single word, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Jiang Ziya was stunned, and said: "The king is the lord of a country, and his status is noble, so there is no reason why he shouldn't talk about it. This is really embarrassing to the old minister."

"Since Deng Jiugong was ordered to go west, Xiangfu led the army to resist the enemy alone. It was originally a good thing. It was just that he failed to defeat the enemy for several months and repeatedly lost troops and generals. Since Xiangfu was the leader of the generals, more than [-] soldiers All of them are under the control of Xiangfu. Today, Deng Jiugong has enough food and supplies, and he has a deep understanding of the art of war. It is really difficult to deal with. There is only one word, Xiangfu is worse than stopping the army and resting with the court, so that I, Xiqi, will not be separated from my wife and children. suffering."

The [-] army was ruined in one battle, and Ji Fa felt a pain in the flesh. This was an unprecedented loss. Although Xiqi had accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, it would be too much to continue fighting like this.

Jiang Ziya pondered and said: "Although the king's words are true, the old minister may violate the destiny."

Ji Fadao: "The destiny is there, why force it! There is no reason for everything to be negative. Besides, the former king once said that even if the emperor is immoral, he should not act recklessly. It is disloyal and unrighteous to use his ministers to beat the emperor." .”

Jiang Ziya coughed a few times, and said: "Your Majesty is right. It's just that we stopped our troops to ask for peace. I don't know if the court will agree. After dozens of battles, the court suffered heavy losses. Even Wen Zhong died in battle. The king never forgot that he wanted to take the king and the old ministers to Chaoge for punishment."

Ji Fa was startled, he had completely forgotten that Xiqi had already become the leader of the princes in the world, holding the banner of justice, this is a situation of endless death.Sighing, he said: "It's too late to think about it alone. Xiangfu's health is important, he should recover from his illness as soon as possible, and he has to work hard on military affairs and state affairs."

Saying so, Ji Fa turned around and brought his guards back to his official position. Now in Xiqi City, among almost ten families, one or two are doing funeral affairs and wearing plain manuscripts. As a king, he wants to allocate some money to reward These soldiers who died on the battlefield, to reassure the people.

Starting from his father, King Wen, Xiqi has a looser policy towards soldiers and civilians. For men who are over the age and have not married, the palace allocates silver taels for the cost of marrying a wife.For soldiers who died in battle, the pension is even more generous.Because of the good policy, Xiqi almost never closes the door at night, and it is not easy to pick up money, which seems to be a paradise.

"Farewell to the King."

Seeing that Ji Fa had left the prime minister's mansion, Jiang Ziya said to Yang Jian, "Yang Jian, you have important business to do, go back to the barracks, I want to be alone." At this point, he suddenly remembered something, and said: " After Nezha returned to Xiqi, his mental state was not good. He must be worried about the loss of the magic weapon. You tell him that he is not to blame for this matter. Daoist Taiyi explained the situation."

Yang Jian said: "The disciple takes orders."

He glanced at Jiang Ziya, then turned and left the Xiangfu.
