Chapter 153
Ji Chang and San Yisheng came to hunt nearby today, and at the same time they talked about some things. After all, Xiqi seems to be prosperous now, but there are many problems, especially the pressure on Chaoge.

"My lord, Jizhou is already under Chaoge's sphere of influence. Shouldn't Su Hu be given up at the beginning?" San Yisheng rode on horseback and walked side by side with Ji Chang.

"So what if you don't give up? It was a trap at the beginning. If all the princes in the west sent troops, King Wu Cheng would definitely retreat. Then... a million troops came later. Judging from the situation when they finally attacked the city, it should be I thought, waiting for ten days is just to give us time to think, otherwise the city will be destroyed on the first day." Ji Chang said with a sigh.

"So, it's true, but now Chaoge has a nail embedded in the West, what should we do?" San Yisheng was also worried.

"I once made a divination for myself, and there was a noble person to help me, but this noble person never appeared. Could it be that my Ji Chang's divination is not accurate?" Yisheng listened.

But at this time Wu Ji's singing came, and Ji Chang heard it, "Quick, that person must be a man of great sage." Ji Chang heard the truth in the singing, so he hurriedly urged him, he was so thirsty for talents, how could he give up Opportunity?

A group of people waited to speed up, and Ji Chang took the lead, showing his attitude, but when he came closer and found that it was a young man, Ji Chang was instantly disappointed, while San Yisheng glared at him, "So you are not dead." He shouted loudly Ji Chang was taken aback by the sound.

"My lord, this person is Wu Ji." San Yisheng explained to Ji Chang, and Wu Ji saw that his affairs had been exposed, he hurriedly threw the things away and ran away, he wanted to ask his master for help!

"Chasing!" San Yi became angry, and hurriedly ordered the accompanying soldiers to chase after him. However, Wu Ji has practiced martial arts for some time, and at the same time he has been collecting firewood in the mountains for many years. He is most familiar with this place. Bukit's trail came to the river.

"Master, save me!" Wu Ji cried out for help.

But Jiang Ziya smiled, sat on the boulder without moving, still fishing there, and in a good mood, because the big fish he was waiting for arrived.Wu Ji ran to Jiang Ziya and knelt down on his knees, "Master, save me, I've been found."

Jiang Ziya didn't answer, and Wu Ji didn't dare to say any more, he knew that the master was capable, but now he could only wait, the master was always so profound.Ji Chang and others chased after him. Ji Chang saw Jiang Ziya at a glance, but the other party was wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but he knew that Wu Ji must have something to rely on when he came here at this time, "Wait a minute."

Ji Chang called to stop the soldier, then got off his horse, and walked forward, San Yisheng hurriedly stopped him, "My lord, Wu Ji is a murderer, you can't come forward."

"It's okay, I think this person should be an expert, otherwise it's impossible for my divination to go wrong, I'm going to pay a visit." Ji Chang stepped forward to salute, and then said: "This person has broken my divination. an expert?"

"That's right. I have a relationship with Wu Ji as a teacher and student. It is impossible to see him in prison. He didn't kill someone on purpose. Now that Wu Ji is dead, all his sins are over." Jiang Ziya said without turning his head. Ji Chang was not angry but surprised that he had exonerated Wu Kit.

He walked up the boulder, came to Jiang Ziya's side, watched Jiang Ziya fishing, and when he saw the hook, he asked, "Why is this a straight hook?"

"It's better to take it straight than to ask for it." Jiang Ziya said simply. Ji Chang felt that it made sense and had a strong character, so he sat beside him and chatted with Jiang Ziya, intentionally or unintentionally bringing the topic to governance On the way, Jiang Ziya naturally would not miss the opportunity to tell the truth of what he had learned, so that the two of them would not feel hungry until noon.

"The old man is very knowledgeable and well-informed. I wonder if he is willing to come out to help?" After talking, Ji Chang decided that Jiang Ziya was his noble man, who was knowledgeable, capable, and highly skilled.

Jiang Ziya would not miss the opportunity, but there must be something that should be there, "I don't know how Xibohou invites me?" These words are very knowledgeable, Ji Chang was also taken aback, and then thought about it.

He concluded that Jiang Ziya was the virtuous person he was looking for, and he had confirmed it in the conversation just now, but now the other party depends on his sincerity, how much he can give to the other party, or right, after all, a sage needs to govern the country. What you need is power, otherwise it will be difficult to make a difference.And these are to be shown, if one's sincerity cannot impress the other party, then they may not be willing to come out to help.

Thinking of this, Ji Chang turned back to look for San Yisheng, "Doctor San, go get a ride on the slippery pole. This Marquis wants to ask a virtuous person to come out of the mountain to help."

"Yes." San Yisheng didn't ask further, he has a lot of power in Xiqi, but he knows what skills he has, and he won't be jealous of Jiang Ziya.The sliding poles were ready. After all, there are many people and strength is great. The soldiers quickly made a pair of sliding poles, a bamboo chair, and put on two strong long stems.

Ji Chang just came back, "Please grandpa come out to help Ji Chang, Ji Chang is willing to carry the grandpa to Xiqi." Jiang Ziya raised his brows, he didn't expect Ji Chang's determination to be so strong, so he stopped making decisions and accepted it directly. Things, and give them to Wu Ji who is kneeling beside him.

"Follow me." Said simply, and then directly sat on the sliding pole. Ji Chang is also a ruthless man. He is not young. Fortunately, most of the princes are military generals. Their ancestors were all military generals, and their bodies are still healthy. , directly in front of the slider with the help of a soldier, and behind it is a strong sergeant.

In this way, Ji Chang personally carried Jiang Ziya back, until he reached the frame of his carriage, "Okay, that's all for Marquis Xibo to stop here." Jiang Ziya didn't continue riding, all he wanted was an attitude. Chang was already profusely sweating, after all, he was a bit old.

After putting down the sliding pole, Jiang Ziya landed on the ground, and then said: "Please change your clothes, Lord Hou, so as not to suffer from the wind and cold."

Ji Chang nodded, "Grandfather, please wait a moment." It's not bad to call it that way, Jiang Ziya is 71 years old this year, and will soon be 72 years old.

After Ji Chang changed his clothes, he regained his princely demeanor, while Jiang Ziya lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down on his knees, "Master, Jiang Ziya joins the lord, and is willing to assist the lord to achieve hegemony."

In this way, Jiang Ziya became a minister, and Ji Chang hurriedly stepped forward happily, "With Ziya's help, I can wait for the prosperous day of Xiqi, please hurry up."

Jiang Taigong was fishing, and the story of the wisher taking the bait came out. Ji Chang took Jiang Ziya's hand and directly boarded his frame, and no one mentioned the matter of Wuji. Chang and Jiang Ziya started talking again. They hadn't eaten until now, but Ji Chang was in high spirits.

Early the next morning, Xibo Hou Jichang had a discussion. They couldn’t call it a court meeting, otherwise it would be a rebellion. Chaoge had an excuse to send troops to attack, but the discussion was actually similar to the court meeting. Under Chaoge's royal power, this is also the root cause of the decline of the big merchants, and Sun Ming just wants to take back the power, so the contradiction is too intense.

Ji Chang directly appointed Jiang Ziya as prime minister, took off his clothes on the spot, and put on the prime minister's court clothes. Xiqi's civil and military ministers were puzzled, but San Yisheng had been instructed yesterday to give them a pass in advance, so it was considered safe.

"Prime Minister, the situation in Xiqi is worrying now. I don't know what good strategy the Prime Minister has." Ji Chang wanted to ask this sentence yesterday, but because today is the key point, everyone needs to know Jiang Ziya's ability, so he endured until now. This is what he wants to know the most.

Jiang Ziya smiled, and then said: "My lord, don't worry. I already know the current situation. Chaoge is very powerful, so the remaining two hundred princes in the west must follow the lead of the lord. In this way, the lord can form an alliance with them and gather the strength of the two hundred princes." Strength, after a few years of development, it will definitely be able to compete with Chaoge."

"Although this is easy to say, it is also difficult to do it!" Ji Chang was a little worried.

"It was difficult in the past, but now it's much easier. After all, the Chaoge family is dominant and powerful. If they don't rely on the lord, they can only save their land by offering their own seal. No one wants to do this, and this is exactly what the lord wants. Opportunity. The princes do have a lot of disadvantages. Today's king sees this, so he will first take back all the land within the sphere of influence of Chaoge, and then distribute it to the common people for cultivation. It is really powerful to gather the world’s wealth and people’s hearts in this way.” Jiang Ziya was actually thinking about problems when he was studying and fishing in the deep mountains this time.

Ji Chang nodded, and then asked, "Can I, Xiqi, follow suit?"

"No, the situation in Xiqi is different from that of Chaoge. Although Chaoge's sphere of influence was large at the beginning, it was too small compared to the combined area of ​​the four princes. At the same time, there is no danger there. After all, the royal family is orthodox, and the princes have no Reasons to intervene, and this also gave them the opportunity to complete the land reform in one go and establish a strong foundation."

"And they attach great importance to craftsmen, especially in smelting, which has made rapid progress and improved the status of craftsmen. This matter can be emulated. After all, the gap in ordnance is a bit big, but it is too late. I still need to consult my teacher on this matter. , the family teacher is the best at refining weapons, so he will definitely be able to give advice."

"It's best to have a peaceful life with such a kind prime minister, but the current king is so ambitious that he completely forgot the promise that our ancestors made when we helped Shang Tang establish a great business. If you want my ancestral land, how can you give it away?" Ji Chang found a reason, this is also fashionable, Jiang Ziya nodded, his lord is really smart.

"Don't worry, my lord, the great business energy is about to run out. This is the right time, and it cannot be done by humans. As long as we develop well, we will definitely be able to fight against Chaoge in the future." Jiang Ziya said directly about the right time, and then the right place, "Unite the Western princes, We occupy the best position, and at the same time display the appropriate banner, we will definitely be able to win peace, so I am undefeated in Xiqi."
