The first monster in history

Chapter 160 King Wu's daydream of flying bears, Weishui pays homage

It took two or three years for the altar to be built, and it was time to start praying to the heavens. Because of the drought and floods in Rixiqi in recent years, it was Ji Boyi who studied the method of building the altar.Now Ji Fa felt that he was strong enough, and wanted to take this opportunity of offering sacrifices to heaven to openly raise the flag and want to rebel.

This platform is two feet high, and its posture is measured by three inches. The upper part is divided into eight trigrams and yin and yang, and the lower part is nine palaces to determine dragon and tiger.The four corners have the shape of four pillars, with the images of heaven and earth standing on the left and right, with the righteousness of the monarch and ministers in the front and back, and the atmosphere of wind and cloud around.On this platform, it is in harmony with the heart of heaven, and it is in harmony with the people of the earth.The heavenly heart on the top corresponds to the four o'clock, and the ground household on the bottom belongs to the five elements, which is in harmony with the heart and the weather is smooth.

It was made by Ji Boyi Kao who hired dozens of Fengshui experts to study it, so it was built in an excellent location of Fengshui, which is why it has such an impressive side.

Ji issued to Lingtai, looked left and right, looked up and down, stopped, a little unhappy.Nangong Shi walked out and asked, "Master Hou, the Lingtai has been built, why are you dissatisfied?"

"It's not that I'm dissatisfied. Ben Hou and his father had learned the art of Feng Shui when he was young, so he still felt a little lacking when he saw the altar. If a pond were dug under the altar, it should be used for the relief of water and fire, and to match the meaning of yin and yang. Opening the pond, but I am afraid that it will hurt the people's strength, so I am hesitant." Ji Chang's family relied on Fengshui and divination, so they knew a little bit, so Ji Fa was able to see the shortcomings of the direct Lingtai.

"The work of the Lingtai is very huge, but it will be completed immediately in two or three years. Now it is just a pond, which is trivial." San Yisheng walked over to pass on Ji Fa's intention to the migrant workers, "Open another pond under the Lingtai to meet the needs of the workers." The meaning of this fire is good."

Because working makes money, why not these migrant workers, and immediately started working, but they dug up a pair of skeletons, feeling unlucky, and immediately threw the skeletons aside.Seeing this, Ji Fa thought of a small way to win over the hearts of the people, and turned to San Yisheng and said, "Order everyone to fetch the dead bones, put them in one place, put them in an urn, and bury them in a good place first. If you want to open a pond and expose this person's bones, then it is really the crime of this Marquis."

This plan really worked, and all the people praised him for his benevolence, righteousness, sageness, etc. Ji Fa was very happy in his heart.

Digging the pond was quite labor-intensive, and it was not enough to dig from morning to noon. Ji Fa didn't bother to go back, so he directly set up a banquet next to the altar to have fun with the people and win the hearts of the people.After the banquet was over, Ji Fa ordered Xiqi officials to rest directly off the stage, while he set up an embroidered couch on the stage and took a midday nap.

Unknowingly, in the afternoon, Ji Fa was asleep and dreaming. Suddenly he saw a white-fronted tiger running from the southeast, with wings growing from its back, rushing towards Ji Fa in the tent.Ji Fa was so frightened that he hurriedly called the guards on the left and right, but only heard a loud sound from behind the altar, and the flames shot into the sky.At this point, Ji Fa was awakened from his sleep, and he was in a cold sweat. Fortunately, it was not reality, otherwise, Ji Fa's little life would definitely be gone.

Hearing that the migrant workers under Daolingtai were still working hard, he secretly thought about the meaning of this nightmare, but he couldn't figure it out, so he called officials to discuss it.

"Ben Hou Zhongri had a strange dream. He dreamed that there was a white-fronted tiger with wings on its back in the southeast, and it rushed towards the tent. Waking up with a loud sound is a nightmare. Benhou has thought about it carefully, but he can't think of this omen. I don't know what is good or bad for the owner?" Ji Fa said to the crowd, at this time he still had lingering fears and was a little scared.

"My Lord, this dream is a sign of great auspiciousness. Ever since Lord Hou prospered the rule of the people, trained troops and suppressed bandits, and benefited one side, I really have the heart not to let Yi Yin." San Yisheng's eyes lit up, and the reality gave him a big flattery, and then Then he continued: "In the past, Emperor Gaozong of the Shang Dynasty once had a flying bear in his dream, and it was said among the people of the world. Today, Hou Ye dreamed that the tiger with two wings, this is the flying bear. And seeing the flames behind the Lingtai, this is the image of fire. Now The west belongs to gold, gold sees fire and avoids it, and cold gold means that Xiqi will become a great weapon, implying the name of Zhou. This is a great sign of the prosperity of Zhou, so this minister is very happy to congratulate Lord Hou."

Doesn't that mean that you want to rebel?But seeing Ji Fa laughing and laughing, all the officials could only congratulate together, which was in line with San Yisheng.

"Flying bears in ancient times represented hermits and sages. Presumably there must be one person who should fulfill the dream. After offering sacrifices to heaven, he would visit the sages and discuss the matter of rebellion later." Ji Fa thought to himself, but he didn't know that the dream of flying bears was actually true. It was written by the mysterious Taoist, and his war plan has already started,

Speaking of Jiang Ziya, when he was fishing in the Weishui River, he ran into a woodcutter and was teased by him. Ziya found out that this guy was destined for him, so he made some calculations.On the day when Ji Fa returned from offering sacrifices to heaven, the woodcutter Wu Ji happened to enter the city and accidentally killed a city gate guard. Because Ji Fa was in a good mood, Wu Ji was only punished to stand for a day, guarding the city for the dead gate guard. He was released, and he will go to the government in a few days to collect a hundred boards of punishment.

So far, he admired Ziya, and under his mother's persuasion, he worshiped Jiang Ziya as his teacher.Jiang Ziya ordered Wuji to stay in the mountains to practice martial arts, learn the art of war, and wait for the coming opportunity.As for Wu Jit's mother, she just let the flow pass and died, and Wu Ji went to the mountain to learn art after finishing the funeral.

Because Quilt Ziya stayed on the mountain and did not go to the government to accept the crime, San Yisheng reported it to Ji Fa.However, these days, Ji Fa never really worried about these things, so he asked San Yisheng to shelve the matter.Taking advantage of the sunny weather and good weather, he took people to hunt.It's just that Ji Fa pretended to be aggressive and talked about the hunting deeds of Fuxi, Huangdi, Yao, Shun, etc., so he didn't hunt in the hunting enclosure, but went hunting outside.

"Reminiscing about the time when Chengtang swept Jie, the eleventh campaign started from Ge. He was dignified and upright, and the people were peaceful with one act of righteousness. After more than [-] years, I wish Wang Enbo will rest. The bones of Lingtai are excavated and buried in Gaofu. , Bohou benevolent and righteous people sing high praises. The barrenness inside is like the color and birds outside, and the world is boiling and moaning. I am a seafarer, and I don’t listen to the voice of subjugation. Day chasing the flood and singing the mighty, night watching the stars and fishing alone. A solitary fisherman does not know how wide the world is, and his white head looks up to the world.” This poem was written by Bai Jian, and Zi Ya ordered Wu Ji to lead a group of fishermen to recite it deliberately in one place, in order to lure the snake out of the hole and catch the prince.

Ji Fa was really fooled and ordered people to search for the singer.I want to come to Wuji only because I did what Ziya ordered, chopping firewood on the bank of the lower reaches of the Wei River, and fishermen on the water to catch fish.Now seeing the officers and soldiers coming, the fisherman ran away in a boat because he was catching fish illegally, but Bukit was caught by the officers and soldiers.

San Yisheng saw Wu Ji at a glance before Ji Fa drove the car, and Ji Fa saw it too. He recalled that the city gate did that on purpose because he was in a good mood. Unexpectedly, Wu Ji escaped the crime and ruined his reputation. Furious, he shouted, "You man! How dare you despise the king's law? These cunning people must be severely punished, kill and injure the people, and flee without accepting the crime. Now the crime is the same as murder. If you are still running away today, how can there be any law?"

"Lord Hou, Ji is a law-abiding and public-spirited citizen who dare not rebel. Just because he accidentally injured someone's life, he went to ask an old man. Three miles away from here, there is a place named Xi. This person is from Xuzhou in the East China Sea. , Taoist name Fei Xiong, the villain worships him as his master. He said that it’s okay to escape the punishment, just live as usual. Master Hou, ants are greedy for life, how can anyone not spare their lives? Hope Master Hou will learn from you.” Wu Ji was very scared. , Just kowtow to admit his mistake, and put all the crimes on Jiang Ziya.

The news was quite blocked, so Xiqi's side knew little about Jiang Ziya, and Wen Zhong was also issued a wanted order to Xiqi's side.He kept his hand in doing things, and besides, Bai Jian, a pawn, was instigating rebellion, so he made a special exception and blocked his news from Xiqi very well.

Although Xiqi didn't hear the news that he was wanted, Jiang Ziya still lived carefully just in case.

"Congratulations, Lord Hou! Wu Gu said that this human name is Feixiong. It is the omen of Lingtai. In the past, Shang Gaozong dreamed of Feixiong at night, and the Taifu said that today Houye dreams of Feixiong, so he can get Ziya. Now Lord Hou is going out to have fun, it is an act of seeking virtuous people, and I hope Lord Hou will acquit Wuji and ask Wuji to come to the forest to invite sages to meet him." San Yisheng was very happy, and immediately knelt down and said to Ji Fa, very excited look.

Ji Fa was dumbfounded when he heard Fei Xiong's name, but after being reminded by San Yisheng, he nodded in agreement.

Wu Ji went into the forest and came to the house, but he didn't see Zi Ya's family. After Wu Ji came out of the house, he saw Ji Fa and others coming.At this time, a woman came out of the house. This woman is the daughter of Ziya, Jiang Yi. Ji Fa was very happy to see her, but she couldn't lose her courtesy. good?"

"Second Master Ji, I'm a very good concubine, please express my condolences, alas! I didn't expect that Mr. Ji would be so young..." Yi Jiang looked sad, and Ji Fa secretly hated that there was such a beautiful woman after Bo Yi passed away. Miss, but soon it must be his wife, he changed his mind and was happy again.

"Master Hou, she is my master's daughter, Jiang Yi, Yi Jiang is just a pseudonym. Sister, I wonder if Master is here?" Wu Ji said, the most important thing is that he still wants to ask Jiang Ziya for help.

"Father went out with a Taoist friend, maybe he will return today or tomorrow, maybe in a day or two, or in three or five days, the footsteps will be fixed, and when he meets mountains and rivers, he or his teacher or friend will talk about metaphysics, so There is no fixed date. Therefore, please come back first, my lord, and the daughter of the people will leave." After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he entered the house, but Ji Fa chased after him and opened the door, but no one was inside.

In the end, San Yisheng persuaded him to go back, and three days later, Ji Fa brought many gifts to go.He is still bathing and fasting these days, and he also brought some betrothal gifts over, intending to seek merit and marriage together.

When they came outside the stream forest, he and San Yisheng went in, while the rest stayed behind and waited.I saw Jiang Ziya fishing on the stone platform, as if he didn't know anyone was coming, but Ji Fa stepped forward and said, "Mr. Jiumu's name, but I have never met him when I came here. Ji Fa knew it was disrespectful, so he fasted for three days. I’m here again today to pay my respects sincerely. It’s really a great honor to see the honorable face of Mr.

"Shang Nai is just old, not like a sage, not worthy of the Marquis's adviser. I am not good enough to secure the country, and not enough to stabilize the country. What qualifications do I have to be ignored by the sage king again and again? Scattered people, half-stepped into hell, old man, please go back, Lord Hou." Ziya continued to fish without turning his head, and said calmly, but he was very anxious, fearing that Bai Jian would teach him this kind of self-deprecation It means that the self-recommended method is not effective.

"Sir, you don't need to be overly modest. I, Lord Marquis Mu Yu, is pious, so I came here to hire you. The world is in trouble today, and the emperor is not sensible. Hearing of Zhong Zhong's misfortune, he was disturbed by the powerful ministers, and he abused the people, so the princes were able to cause chaos, and the people in the world were in dire straits. Mr. Hou thinks day and night, restless on the pillow, Mr. Jiumu is a great virtue, fishing in the pity stream, and today he brings a mere gift, which is not a respect. If you don't give up, you can help the Lord with me. My lord doesn't want to let the master hide his secret plan Don’t tell me, could you have the heart to watch the world’s people suffer and not save them? My lord, please help me to save the world’s common people and fulfill that unworldly benevolence.” San Yisheng is worthy of being the most eloquent person in this era, really Can be said to be false, black can be said to be white, it is really powerful.

"Sir, Fa is envious of Ms. Jiang, and wants to marry her. In the future, Mr. will help me achieve the emperor's foundation, and she will be the queen. And Mr. Fa Jiuyang is wise, and now I would like to worship Mr. as my prime minister and my father. The date of the vow Listen to Xiangfu's teaching every day, and you will be lucky for three years." Ji Fa said it so bluntly, he couldn't believe that Jiang Ziya was still unwilling to be tempted.

Ziya ignored it, saw that he had caught a carp, turned around, and said with a smile, "I hope you don't disappoint the poor, otherwise, the poor will definitely abandon it."

Seeing that Ziya agreed, Ji Fa and San Yisheng immediately paid homage to him, and inside the house, Jiang Yi also ran out to embrace Ji Fa, and they made marriages.It is said that Ji Fa worshiped Ziya as his father-in-law. After the grand occasion entered the city, all the people rushed to see who Ji Fa was going to welcome into Xiqi in person.

Jiang Ziya dismounted at Xibohou's mansion, Ji Fa summoned all the officials, and after all the congratulations, Ji Fa appointed Ziya as Prime Minister of You Lingsheng, and Jiang Ziya thanked him for his kindness.Furthermore, a banquet was held in the side hall, and all the officials congratulated each other and drank together.

At this time, Xiqi was assisted by Jiang Ziya, like a tiger with wings added.Moreover, with Bai Jian's secret help, he behaved well in governing the country, keeping the people safe and in accordance with the law, and everything was in order.Xiqi built the Prime Minister's Mansion secretly. At this time, Jin Yiwei passed the information to Wuguan. Hou Jifa governed the fief.

"It's coming soon, it's really coming soon, the fight will start soon, ha ha." The mysterious Taoist of West Kunlun took out a gourd and drank the wine, feeling like he was not drunk, but drunk in his heart.

"Hasn't Bai Jian succeeded in instigating rebellion yet? Forget it, let's wait for his news while typing." Wen Zhong thought for a while, and that was the only way he could arrange it, so he sent some veterans out first.
