I, Kunpeng, established the Heaven Court at the beginning and seized the position of Saint

Chapter 148: Ji Fa Imprisoned in the Stable
Chaoge, the royal palace.

"Your Majesty, the evidence has been found. Wei Ziqi has been trying to seize the throne, and Prime Minister Shang Rong has been given no more titles..."

"Wei Ziqi promised that after the matter was accomplished, he would confer the title of Northern Marquis on Shang Rong... This also involved Wang Shu Bigan..."

After listening to the reports from Fei Zhong and You Hun, Emperor Xin suddenly became furious and threw the evidence to the ground in anger.

"What bastards! I treated them well, but they disregarded the royal authority just for their own selfish interests..."

This time, it was also the first time that Emperor Xin brought up this scandal directly in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.

They had heard about it before, but their king had always handled it in a low-key manner.

But this time it was different, it was obvious that their king was angry!

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

All the civil and military officials bowed their heads in agreement. However, Emperor Xin was furious at the moment and angrily threw the evidences down on his head.

"Calm down!? You want me to calm down? How can these villains make me calm down?!"

Fei Zhong and You Hun both looked terrified, but they seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Xin snorted coldly: "If you have anything else, please tell me clearly."

After hearing this, Fei Zhong and You Hun lowered their heads cautiously and bowed their hands, saying:
"Your Majesty, during our investigation, we discovered... we discovered that the Prime Minister's daughter Shang Qingjun had been having an affair with Ji Fa. I believe she had already colluded with Xibo Hou..."

However, before he could finish his words, Emperor Xin, who was at the top of the table, smashed the table in front of him in anger.

The civil and military officials in the hall were also terrified.

This is no small matter, as it actually involves Ji Chang, the Duke of Xibo, one of the four great princes!

As for the matter between Prime Minister Shang Rong and Wei Zi Qi, which also involved Bi Gan, there were rumors about it before.

In addition, after Prime Minister Shang Rong lost almost all real power and was directly exiled home, everyone understood that this was true.

Their great king, Emperor Xin, did it purely for the face of the Shang Dynasty, and even more for the face of the royal family, and even for the prime minister's previous merits.

Only then did they not take it seriously and chose to deal with it in a way that would save their face.

Otherwise, why didn’t your Prime Minister Shang Rong come out to protest his injustice over the years?
Now he's causing trouble again. Isn't this courting death?

"Hou Xibo!"

When Emperor Xin heard this, his face was full of sneers.

"It seems that our Xibohou is really getting more and more foolish as he gets older. He is really going to lose his integrity in his later years!"

"Pass the royal decree to me, tell everyone in Xiqi! Tell me, Bo Yikao! Xibohou Da Shang only recognizes him as the eldest son. If someone usurps the throne, I! Not only the entire Da Shang but also the eight hundred princes of the world will not recognize the existence of Xiqi!"

In a rage, Emperor Xin issued a royal decree to tell the world that Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo, was old and senile and was no longer qualified to continue serving as the Marquis of Xibo.

However, the Shang Dynasty only recognized the eldest son, Bo Yikao.

After all, Bo Yikao's reputation for loyalty and filial piety is now known throughout the world, especially his image of bravery and fighting skills during the conquest of Beihai, which has long been spread among the people.

After all, this is the first person who was granted the title of nobility based on his military achievements and then given to his younger brother.

"At the same time, send orders to Qinglong Pass, Sishui Pass, and Jiameng Pass to send 30,000 elite soldiers to each pass!"

After the last royal decree resounded domineeringly in the court, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked and shouted:

"Your Majesty is wise!"

These three levels can directly target Xiqi.

At the moment, Da Shang is openly increasing its military forces, and there is a reason for that, it is purely for the purpose of intimidation!
Even these civil and military officials could think of one thing, that is, although they still had concerns about the Shang Dynasty, they did not want to start a war easily.

But all the princes in the world have long been greedy, and I'm afraid they all hope that Xiqi will really fall into chaos, or even be proven to be plotting a rebellion.

Then they can go and conquer!
"Prime Minister Shang Rong, I have given him enough face. If that is the case, then I will fulfill his wish!"

"From today on, Shang Rong will be dismissed from his position as Prime Minister and demoted to a slave and exiled to Xiqi. Shang Rong is loyal to Xiqi, so I will satisfy his request based on his many years of contributions."

"And Uncle Bigan! He is already very old, so I have to issue my order to Bigan, ordering him to guard the Dashang Ancestral Temple. Without my order, he is not allowed to step out of the Dashang Ancestral Temple!"

Emperor Xin was furious and issued a series of punitive orders, which made all the civil and military officials in the court feel deeply moved.

Although their king is decisive in killing people, he is still very tolerant of his own people.

He did such a thing, but he was not killed!
They all thought that the King of Shang, in a rage, would kill these rebels directly.

They never thought that their king still remembered the kindness they once showed him.

There is no official who does not like such a king, after all, as long as he does not do what the princes of the North Sea did and directly raise the banner of rebellion.

Then the King of Shang would be more tolerant of them.

"Your Majesty is wise."

All the officials shouted loudly, but Emperor Xin frowned and finally snorted coldly.

"Ji Fa, you are arrogant and licentious. From today on, you will be stripped of your fiefdom in Beihai and demoted to a horseman. When you have reformed, Ji Chang will come to Chaoge to take you back.

Wei Ziqi, from today on, will be expelled from the royal family tree and exiled to the land of the North Sea. He is no longer a member of the royal family of the Shang Dynasty. However, I remember that he once made great contributions to the Shang Dynasty, so I will grant him the fiefdom of Ji Fa and make him the Marquis of Song. "

After this incident, Ji Fa had an affair with the daughter of Prime Minister Shang Rong, which was shameful enough, and he was deprived of the status of a feudal lord that he had just obtained.

He has already shown special favor to us.

As for Weizi Qi, the punishment seemed severe, but in fact it only completely eliminated his rebellious heart and saved his life.

He was even exiled to the bitterly cold and barren land of the North Sea, and was not allowed to step out of the territory without the king's order.

After all, he is a small prince.

……

No one expected it to happen so suddenly.

On that day, a large number of elite troops rushed into the Prime Minister's residence.

"Yin Shou! Yin Shou!"

Shang Rong's face was filled with anger and frustration, and in the end he revealed a miserable and sad smile.

"Haha, what a good Yin Shou, this is really a good method, I am convinced!"

At this moment he finally realized how vicious Yin Shou's methods were.

It seemed like he had been forgiven, but in fact, he was living a life worse than death!

The moment he was demoted to a slave, his luck was almost gone, but he was not allowed to die.

And he was sent to Xiqi in exile with humiliation and shame!
How could he be qualified to be deified now?
It has to be said that Fei Zhong and You Hun have been secretly destroying his reputation for so many years since the last incident.

His reputation had already been damaged, and after this incident, he would be killed directly.

On the contrary, some people may suspect that there is something wrong.

But Emperor Xin acted as if he remembered your contributions and let you live.

This is different. On the contrary, everyone in the world thinks that the King of Shang is kind.

Bigan was also very aggrieved. He was sent to guard the ancestral hall and completely lost his former status and glory.

"Your Majesty Prime Minister."

When the house was searched, Fei Zhong and You Hun walked in with smiles on their faces, looking at the once high and mighty Prime Minister Shang Rong. They were immediately filled with satisfaction.

"No, no! He is no longer the Prime Minister now."

Facing the two traitors, Shang Rong's face was full of anger and he just spat.

"You two treacherous traitors have corrupted the emperor, causing Yin Shou to lose his power. You deserve to die!"

However, in the face of Shang Rong's vicious curses, Fei Zhong and You Hun both showed sincere smiles.

"We two don't need you, a mere slave from Xiqi, to worry about us."

"correct!"

As if he had thought of something, Fei Zhong squinted his eyes and smiled:

"In order to save your face, the king knew that your daughter Shang Qingjun had an affair with Ji Fa, so he sent her to be Ji Fa's legal wife. Although she is the wife of a horseman, she is still a horseman who feeds the king's horses. It is better than going to Xiqi to be a slave."

"Master Shang Rong, have a safe journey."

The two men's smiles after they gained power made Shang Rong so angry that his face turned red. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

The entire Shang family was in trouble, but this time Fei Zhong and You Hun handled the situation very well.

After all, although Emperor Xin was angry, it was obvious that he would not allow anyone in Shang Rong's mansion to be harmed.

Therefore, although they seem arrogant, they are not too outrageous.

In just one day, the former Prime Minister's residence was reduced to ruins.

When the people in Chaoge City saw this, they all spit in disdain.

I think people like Shang Rong are actually too ambitious.

If such people were allowed to fulfill their ambitions, they would have to go to war again.

Their king hates war the most.

As long as you don't directly raise the flag of rebellion, their king will show mercy.

After this incident, the King of Shang, who had just returned victorious from his expedition to the North Sea, not only became more powerful throughout the world, but his reputation for benevolence and righteousness also spread far and wide.

Even after this matter was spread, all the princes in the world were furious and sent impassioned memorials to Chaoge.

The content of the memorial was also very simple, that is, they were willing to help the Shang Dynasty to pacify the treacherous Xiqi bandits.

They may not be able to defeat us individually, but it is hard to say when they join together.

After all, Xiqi’s territory is so large that it cannot be compared to Beihai.

None of them has the ability to take over Xiqi, but they may be able to do so if they join forces.

In Beihai, a cold and barren land, 72 princes can be enfeoffed. In Xiqi, a prosperous land, at least 200 princes can be enfeoffed.

Now, the princes are angry and looking for rebellion everywhere, but the Shang Dynasty does not want to start a war easily.

……

"Damn Shang Rong!"

Originally, Ji Fa, as the son of King Xibo, was treated extraordinary. But he never thought that because of a woman, he would be involved in a rebellion.

As a result, his fiefdom was stripped away and he was even demoted to a groom. He could only wait for the next time the princes came to visit him and his father would take him back.

"Jifa, do you really think you are still a marquis?"

With a sneer of disdain on his face, You Hun waved his hand to signal the soldiers to let him go.

Now Jifa has been taken to the stable.

"you!"

Ji Fa's face was full of frustration, but You Hun waved his hand in disdain and said:

"Okay, the king has spared you some face in Xiqi. He brought this shameless Shang Qingjun to you and granted you a marriage. Otherwise, we would have been demoted to slaves together. I don't know how you would be abused in Xiqi..."

Ji Fa glared at the treacherous You Hun angrily. Although he wanted to eat the other's flesh, he could not help but hold back when he thought of his father's words.

He even looked distraught, as if he had completely lost all confidence after being thrown into the abyss.

You Hun couldn't help but secretly spit when he saw this scene, and said with contempt: "What a spineless waste, I don't know why Ji Chang likes you just based on this."

"What's been spread outside is true. Xibohou Jichang is old and confused. He didn't use his wise and brave eldest son Bo Yikao, but used a useless person like you."

You Hun couldn't help but sneer with disdain, then waved his hand, and two soldiers outside pushed Shang Qingjun, who was disheveled and in a mess, in.

Shang Qingjun had never suffered such humiliation before, but under this force, he was pushed directly into the stable.

"Ji Fa!"

When Shang Qingjun saw Ji Fa lying on the ground with a distraught look on his face, she couldn't help but exclaimed, this was her destined son.

However, You Hun, who saw this scene, said with disdain:
"Bah, what a pair of dogs, they are actually having an affair in secret. Do they really think of themselves as stray dogs outside? They have no sense of propriety or shame."

You Hun had never scolded any local princes like this before, especially Ji Fa, who was the son of King Xibo and had just replaced Bo Yikao to become a prince of Beihai some time ago.

It can be said that this kind of stimulation of defeating the powerful made You Hun very happy.

"You two dogs and bitches, the king is merciful. In order to save the reputation of Xibohou Jichang and the former prime minister, he has issued a royal decree to grant you marriage. You will be married in this stable tonight."

When he said this, even You Hun couldn't help but look at the two of them with contempt.

"You two are both from wealthy families, but you can't even control this little desire? What's the difference between you and the stray dogs out there?"

"It is only because of your great king's mercy that after tonight, you two will be husband and wife. Even if you are seeking pleasure, it will not be considered adultery."

You Hun sneered sarcastically and waved his hand casually. The two guards behind him looked at the two of them with contempt, and then he handed down the king's reward order.

A stable, a place specially used for raising mounts. Since the appearance of Jade Unicorn, this place has undergone tremendous changes.

After all, the Jade Unicorn cannot be compared with ordinary BMWs.

"Ji Fa!"

Faced with the contemptuous looks from everyone, Shang Qingjun's face turned pale and her eyes were full of evasion. In the end, she could only look to Ji Fa, her last support, for help!

While Ji Fa looked at Shang Qingjun, his heart was filled with endless anger and frustration. He remembered that night!
Under the coercion of the old thief Jiang Ziya, Shang Qingjun surrendered!
But now his ambition still requires Jiang Ziya, so he can only pretend that he knows nothing.

"Qing Jun!"

Ji Fa suppressed his sadness, put on a hypocritical smile, and looked back at Shang Qingjun. At this moment, a qualitative change began to take place in his heart.

He is so high and mighty, and he has experienced so much during this period of time!
It also made him firm in his determination!

At this moment, he was extremely powerful and fearless!

"Ji Fa!"

At this moment, the familiar sound of a life-saving straw suddenly came from the stable, and Shang Qingjun couldn't help but show ecstasy on his face.

Jifa felt surprised but also humiliated, but the moment he turned his head, an expression of excitement and anticipation appeared on his face.

"Father!"
