Starting from crossing the Fengshen

Chapter 649: Xiqi Uprising

In the Shang Dynasty, the people were in an uproar.

Soon, a rumor spread wildly on TikTok, saying that the king actually doted on Concubine Zhang Defei the most and no longer had much affection for the queen. He wanted to help Concubine Zhang De ascend to the throne, but had no reason to depose the queen, so he had no choice but to kill her.

This is also why a dignified celestial being would die for no reason.

This rumor is very convincing and cites a lot of facts to confuse people.

"No way, is this true?"

"Fuck you, which bastard is spreading rumors? The king is such a kind and wise man, how could he do such a dirty thing?"

"If it's not true, how could the Queen, as a celestial being, die?"

"Don't believe the rumors. These are the remnants of the rebels who are making up rumors and slandering the king."

……

The Internet is in chaos.

There are those who believe in Yin Qi unconditionally, but there are also those who keep a "cool" head. In addition, there are various tribes from all over the prehistoric world who like to watch the fun and stir up trouble, and they come in to make trouble for no reason.

With Yin Qi's prestige, almost 90% of people in the Shang Dynasty believed in him. However, there were too many ethnic groups who were eager to watch the fun and make trouble, which completely muddied the waters and caused all kinds of trouble.

Rather than being benevolent and wise, they hoped that Yin Qi would be a tyrant and incompetent ruler.

Their number far exceeds that of the Shang Dynasty users.

……

Song.

The people were in an uproar, and all the civil and military officials were stunned.

The queen died.

No wonder, no wonder.

No wonder the king ignored state affairs and the palace seemed to be under martial law.

At the same time, they were also wondering why the queen of the Heavenly Fairyland died suddenly?

As for the rumors on the Internet, they don't believe them.

Especially business content.

Because of Shang Qingjun, he knew a lot about what was happening in the harem.

The king did favor Concubine De the most, but he also respected and loved Zhou Ji and their feelings were extremely deep. How could he possibly kill her?

Even if the king disliked Zhou Ji, he would not have done such a cruel thing.

This kind of stupid move is not something a king could do.

Du Yuanxuan said solemnly: "Prime Minister, uncle, and everyone. The king is in grief and has no interest in government affairs, but we cannot let the rumors on the Internet go unchecked. We must find a way to stop them."

"Stop it, how to stop it?"

Zhao Qi sighed and said, "We, the people of Yin Shang, naturally believe in the king. But those races in various parts of the prehistoric world are making trouble at will, and we have no way to influence them at all."

Everyone frowned when they heard this.

At this moment, Minister of Rites Chen Xu suddenly took out his cell phone and his face instantly darkened.

He put down his phone and said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister, Uncle Emperor, everyone, I just received a letter of inquiry from Ji Chang, asking us to give an explanation about the Queen's matter."

Shang Rong and others also looked gloomy.

Bigan's eyes gleamed, and he whispered to himself, "Why do I feel like there's a conspiracy? Since the king has ordered martial law in the palace and blocked the news, how did the short video of the queen's death get out?"

Shang Rong's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly realized the problem. He said in a deep voice: "Uncle, please go to the palace and ask the king how to respond to this matter."

Xiqi’s questioning is of great importance.

If things go wrong, this will become the fuse of a war.

……

Zichen Palace.

Bigan is very strange.

The last time he came, Yin Qi was full of grief. How come he suddenly seemed like nothing had happened?
Yin Qi smiled faintly and said, "No need to respond, just drag it out like this."

Bigan frowned and advised: "Think twice, Your Majesty. We should respond to Xiqi in time to prevent the matter from getting out of hand."

"Big trouble?"

Yin Qi chuckled and said, "Uncle, how do you think this happened? Xiqi wanted to make a big fuss so that they could have a legitimate reason to attack. I also want to make a big fuss and wait for Xiqi to raise an army."

The development of things was exactly according to his plan, and there was no need to hide it now.

Because Xiqi was ready to start the war tomorrow. No matter what explanation he gave, Xiqi would not accept it, so he naturally did not bother to respond.

"what!"

Bigan's eyes widened, he looked at Yin Qi in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "My king, what do you mean by this? Did you really kill the queen just to induce Xiqi to send troops? Why?"

At the end, his voice soared with regret and disappointment.

Yin Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly said, "Uncle, what are you thinking? The queen is not dead. Well, to be more precise, she has died once, which is completely in my plan."

Bigan heaved a sigh of relief, but he was even more confused: "My king, what is going on?"

Yin Qi said: "This is a long story. To put it simply, Xiqi has long had the heart to rebel and wants to avenge his grandfather's murder of his father, but he wants to protect his reputation and wants to find an excuse to justify his actions.

So he invited a powerful immortal to kill Zhou Ji with a curse so that he could put the blame on me.

And I had already seen through his conspiracy.

So he used the same trick and used a substitute puppet to take the blame on Zhou Ji.

When Xiqi sends troops, I will expose this matter and completely expose Ji Chang's hypocritical face."

"This……"

Bigan widened his eyes again in disbelief.

In his impression, Ji Chang was a modest gentleman, second only to Yin Qi in terms of reputation. However, he did not expect that the other party would be so cruel and ruthless that he would curse his own daughter to death in order to raise an army.

Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs.

Also, Xiqi had actually been planning a rebellion for a long time, so how come he had no idea about it?

Yin Qi said, "Uncle, this matter is not suitable to be made public yet. When you go back, just pretend you know nothing. Tell the prime minister and others to handle government affairs with peace of mind."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Bigan nodded.

He walked out of the Purple Palace in a daze, looked at the sun in the sky, and suddenly felt very strange.

.........

The next day.

Outside Xiqi City.

Millions of troops gathered together, and all you could see was a sea of ​​human heads.

On the high altar, Ji Chang's face was filled with grief, and he said emotionally: "...I, Xiqi, have been loyal to the Shang Dynasty for generations, and have no second thoughts. However, the Shang Dynasty has gone too far, killing my father on false charges, and now they have favored their concubine and killed the queen.

It is tolerable and unbearable.

The Shang Dynasty treated our Xiqi as grass, and we, Xiqi, should also treat the Shang Dynasty as our enemy.

There is no other purpose for this military expedition.

I just want to march to the city of Chaoge and ask Emperor Qi to give me an explanation about Xiqi.

In this battle, we must not return until we die!"

Ji Chang's speech aroused the anger of millions of soldiers, and they roared:

“No return until death!”

“No return until death!”

“No return until death!”

……

In Xiqi, although the people were grateful to the Emperor, they believed in Duke Xibo more.

As the saying goes, if the king humiliates his subjects, they will die.

The Shang Dynasty first killed the father of King Xibo, and now it has killed the queen with its favorite concubine. Such hatred can only be washed away by blood.

The roar of the millions of troops was as loud as thunder, even the clouds in the sky were dispersed.

for a long time.

Ji Chang just pressed his right hand, and the army of millions fell silent instantly: "This time, Prime Minister Jiang Ziya will be the Grand Marshal to coordinate all the wars. Shangshu Ling Jia Ren will be stationed in Xiqi to coordinate logistical supplies..."

Next, he appointed hundreds of generals.

Each general commanded a million soldiers; below him were the lieutenant generals, each commanding a hundred thousand soldiers; below them were the junior generals, each commanding ten thousand soldiers; below them were the colonels and captains.

After the general is appointed, sacrifices will be held.

Because human sacrifice and slavery had long been abolished, sacrifices naturally did not involve killing captives or slaves, but rather bringing in a five-colored sacred cow and beheading it to offer sacrifice to the heavens. (End of this chapter)
