I asked you to play the dungeon, but you are here to raise the BOSS?

Chapter 437 Do you think I really caught King Wen? Priest of the Martial Temple, Incense Becomes God

It was approaching noon, and more than ten gorgeous carriages were galloping along the Weishui River.

The wheels rolled, causing the water on the river to sparkle and causing birds and animals to flee in all directions.

"Everyone stop."

Xibo Hou Jichang opened the curtain of his car, looked at the flowing Wei River, and shouted in a low voice.

"This place is still far away from the place where the master lives in seclusion. Why is Your Majesty so reluctant to move forward?"

After hearing Ji Chang's order, Xiqi General Nangong Shi quickly stopped the convoy and bowed to ask.

"Since there is a fishing place for the high man in front of us, the sound of our carriages and horses disturbs the tranquility. How rude!"

Xibo Hou Jichang took the lead to step out of the carriage: "Except for the two distinguished guests, everyone else is getting down."

"Uncle Ji came to ask for the emperor's teacher. In later generations, there was a saying that 'the king of heaven and earth is his teacher'. It is also the courtesy of a gentleman to treat the teacher with courtesy."

Lin Xuan left the carriage riding alongside Ji Chang: "Long Ji, let's get down and walk around too."

"good!"

A clear female voice sounded, and a girl wearing a bright red and white crane-shaped gauze dress, with bright eyes, white teeth, and ice-cold muscles appeared in front of the two of them.

Although Huang Rong sounds arrogant, she is still relatively cautious in the realm of gods.

Dangerous places were carefully avoided, and codes were left in all the big cities we passed along the way.

Without much effort, Lin Xuan followed the prompts and came to Qingluan Dou Que where Princess Long Ji lived in seclusion, and took the lead to complete the rendezvous with Huang Rong.

According to the setting of the Conferred Gods, Long Ji is the daughter of God Haotian and was born to the Golden Mother of Yaochi.

One time when Pantao was serving wine, this girl didn't know whether it was intentional or accidental...

In short, he broke the rules of heaven and violated some moral precepts, and was banished to Phoenix Mountain by the Golden Mother of Yaochi.

However, Yaochi Golden Mother didn’t do too well.

Even though she was demoted, her cultivation was still reserved for her.

All food and drink expenses are provided, and a magic weapon is a real treat from heaven.

In a fight, high-grade magic weapons such as the Erlong Sword, Luan Fei Sword, Yaochi White Light Sword, Wulu Qiankun Net, Qiankun Needle, Dragon Binding Rope, etc. would all be thrown at them as if they were free of charge, often leaving the opponent with a grimace.

She is truly considered a rich young woman in the world of immortality.

Well, this is the setting of Fengshen...

The mythical Queen Mother of the West doesn't even recognize her status as a married woman as the "Golden Mother of Yaochi", so naturally she doesn't want to have such an old daughter.

It seems that the Queen Mother of the West feels that completely erasing the existence of Princess Longji is a bit unkind.

Therefore, this profound immortal forcibly changed the cause and effect and changed the identity of Princess Longji to his adopted daughter.

As fate changes, so do other things.

Yue Lao even made a special trip to say that he was blind and made a mistake, and all the red threads he originally held for Yue Lao were invalid.

Princess Long Ji thought about it silently for a while, seemed to have figured out something, and took the initiative to join Lin Xuan's side.

"It would be nice if you two don't think I'm being rash..."

Ji Chang saluted Lin Xuan and said sternly: "Master Lin, I just made a divination on the road. The divination showed that 'the field is in Weiyang, and there will be great success.' Duke, Heaven sent my master to assist the three generations."

"Well, I heard that there is a saying in the Book of Changes written by Uncle Ji, 'Clouds follow the dragon, and the wind follows the tiger.' As the saying goes: the roar of a tiger creates wind, and the rise of a dragon creates clouds."

Lin Xuan nodded and said: "It has been the same between monarchs and ministers since ancient times. Only when you are like a fish in water can you talk and laugh to make the king prosperous and leave a lasting legacy."

Ji Chang is famous all over the world for his conduct as a gentleman and is known as a saint. He is the leading moral model of this era.

Su Hu looked down upon King Zhou in various ways, but he admired Ji Chang very much.

From this point of view, the charisma of both parties is indeed clear.

But, you have a dirty mind when it comes to playing politics.

Being able to manage his image so well, Lin Xuan naturally doesn't believe that Ji Chang is the so-called "moral perfect man".

But it doesn’t matter, the emperor himself is also a political creature, and what needs to be added is the power of power...

If you can make all civil and military officials work honestly, your moral bottom line must be very flexible.

If a man like Hai Rui becomes emperor, it will be a blessing or a curse for the people of the world.

"Thank you Mr. Lin for your kind words."

Ji Chang pondered for a moment: "It's not advisable to meet many noble people. Second and fourth, you go with me. The others stay here and don't disturb passers-by."

"yes!"

Ji Fa and Ji Dan came to Ji Chang side by side with respectful expressions.

Although there is a saying of "King Wen's Hundred Sons".

But Ji Chang is actually quite similar to Whitebeard, and likes to recognize people as his sons.

Among those hundred sons, many were similar to Lei Zhenzi and fell into the category of adopted sons.

Ji Chang only had about a dozen real biological sons, and even fewer from the direct lineage of Queen Taisi.

At this point in time, Ji Chang's eldest son Boyikao was serving as a hostage in Chaoge and had not yet had time to transform into meat pie.

He usually drives for King Zhou and is regarded as a full-time driver for the leader. He gets a good salary and can also make some connections.

Except for this one who has been absent for many years, among Ji Chang's remaining sons, Ji Fa and Ji Dan are the most outstanding.

Xiqi's adviser group at this time was not too gorgeous.

When encountering problems, Ji Chang would mostly discuss them with his two sons.

"Well, King Wen, King Wu, Duke Zhou, plus the Grand Duke, this lineup should be more than enough."

Lin Xuan looked at Ji Fa and the two with a look of satisfaction: "Long Ji, you can go too."

Speaking of which, Ji Fa's age in history books has always made people want to complain.

According to the Book of Rites, "King Wen died at ninety-seven, and King Wu died at ninety-three."

The history books also clearly stated: King Wu conquered Yin three years before his death.

So in theory, King Wu defeated Zhou when he was ninety years old...

That's about ten years younger than Jiang Ziya, who "respects his master and respects his father, and respects his eagle at all times".

From this point of view, the level of stability of this pair of "war god monarchs" will be very explosive even after thousands of years.

However, the Conferred God Plane obviously does not use such a crazy setting...

Lin Xuan took a look and estimated that Ji Fa was in his twenties or thirties.

Needless to say, Ji Dan was the famous Confucian and Taoist sage in later generations.

Historically, after King Wu passed away, Ji Dan served as regent for six years. In the process, he quelled the rebellion in the three prisons, enfeoffed the princes, established the capital, made rituals and music, and awarded measures.

After the world was conquered, Ji Dan returned power to King Cheng and took the position of minister in the north.

Because the influence of the ritual and music system formulated under his leadership lasted for thousands of years.

Confucianism calls him together with Master.

Well, the Master particularly admired the rituals and music of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

One time I lamented my old age and frailty, and even said, "It's been a long time since I dreamed of Duke Zhou anymore."

Therefore, later generations also referred to sleeping as "dream of Zhou Gong".

This is the celebrity effect.

"Ah? Should I go too?"

Princess Long Ji was startled and a little confused.

"As the ancestor of hundreds of families, Jiang Taigong is a man of extraordinary talent, capable of both civil and martial arts. He is the perfect candidate to supervise the construction of Qian Tian Pagoda."

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "But after the tower is built, there will also be a need for a few deputies to walk in the heavens and manage humanity. I wonder if the princess is interested?"

"I...can I do it too?"

“This catastrophe is extremely variable, and we still don’t know what the situation will be like in the future.”

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "If the princess is willing to stay in the Tower of the Heavens, she can still have a place to go, and there is no need to pay attention to the summons from the Heavenly Court."

"this……"

Princess Long Ji was a little moved: "I heard from Sister Huang that Senior Master is in charge of the All Heavens Tower. The little girl's magic power is low. Will Master be displeased?"

Although the Queen Mother of the West canceled her punishment, the difference between immortals and mortals and the impending disaster meant that immortals still could not step into the world of mortals lightly.

Princess Longji is still a young woman, and she is actually a little bored staying in Qingluan Dou Palace all day long.

But to be honest, even if he returns to heaven with perfect merits, it would be meaningless.

After all, heaven is also deserted and hierarchical...

She is not as mentally strong as someone who can sit on a golden toilet and stare at all mankind.

Now that Lin Xuan gave him another choice, Long Ji felt a little anxious.

It is definitely better to walk in the heavens than to stay alone in the heavens.

Well, this time there is no rule that I will die in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation anyway, so I don’t have to be so radical in doing things.

After surviving the catastrophe, if you hang out with Brother Lin and Sister Huang, you might be able to achieve success.

At least, you don’t have to go to the Conferred God Platform to queue up to be granted the title...

"My master is well-educated, and the princess's talents and qualifications make her the best choice, so why worry?"

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "Master is a descendant of King Zhou's elder brother Weizi. Even though it is Zhou Dynasty this time, the Yin and Shang lineage cannot be wiped out. When things happen here, I will go out with Rong'er. If you go far away, you will have to worry about the princess."

The Zhou Dynasty supported Wei Ziqi, the elder brother of King Zhou, to establish the Song Kingdom. Later, Wei Ziqi's second brother Wei Zhong took over as the king of the Song Kingdom.

Fuzizi's surname is Kong. Although he is from Lu, his ancestral home is Song. He is the fourteenth generation descendant of Wei Zhongzheng'er Bajing.

In other words, our ancestors were once wealthy and were truly a royal family of the Shang Dynasty.

After learning about Lin Xuan and Ah Qing's plan, Master made a special trip to the Ming Dynasty to read The Romance of the Gods...

After understanding the plot, the Master naturally did not like King Zhou's actions that harmed the country and the people.

But he still hinted at the words, trying to take care of his ancestors...

Now Lin Xuan has a lot of things to do, so this little girl can help.

"Okay! Little girl understands!"

Princess Long Ji understood this and bowed to Lin Xuan Yingying: "Thank you, Emperor!"

***

North Bank of Weishui River

"The common people in the mountains and fields have met His Highness King Wen."

Jiang Ziya spit out the fish bones, exhaled a long and pleasant breath, and looked at Ji Chang.

Now it's the interview stage.

Call your job when you work!

"this……"

Jichang's old face twitched: "Sir, I'm afraid you have recognized the wrong person. I am Jichang, the Marquis of Xibo."

"If King Wen Anxin is just a Xibohou, why should he come to find me?"

Jiang Ziya smiled calmly: "Huang Fairy just said that between the king and his ministers, it is like a fish in water. I deeply agree."

"...I just casually chatted with my husband for a few words today, but it's nothing to count."

Ji Chang hesitated for a moment and then changed his words: "I see you, sir, fishing here. Do you like fishing, sir?"

"I've heard that a gentleman is happy to realize his ambitions, and an ordinary person is happy to do his job well."

"I don't like fishing originally, but I fish here. It's very similar to this reason."

Jiang Ziya hesitated for a moment and sighed: "But the grilled fish made by Huang Xianzi is the best in the world. What I said before is still a bit full."

"Master Lin once taught me that running a big country is like cooking small dishes, and I deeply agree."

Ji Chang's eyes flickered: "May I ask, sir, what are the similarities between your ambition and fishing?"

"Fishing is like using political power. Using generous salaries to buy talents is like using bait to fish; using heavy sums of money to buy dead soldiers is like using bait to fish; using official positions to recruit talents is like using bait to fish."

“The purpose of all fishing is to catch fish.”

Jiang Ziya looked lazy: "Although the truth is a bit profound, it can be seen in a small way."

"I am willing to hear this profound thing, sir, please explain it clearly."

"If the source of water is deep, the water flow will never stop. If the water flow never stops, fish will survive. This is a natural principle."

"If the fishing line is thin and the bait is visible, small fish will take the bait; if the fishing line is moderate and the bait is fragrant, medium-sized fish will take the bait; if the fishing line is thick and long and the bait is abundant, big fish will take the bait."

"If a fish is greedy for delicious bait, it will be caught by the fishing hook; if a talent wants high official and generous salary, he can only obey the emperor's orders."

"Therefore, if you use fragrant bait to fish, the fish can be cooked; if you use juelu to trap talents, the talents can be put to good use; if you use your home as bait, you can take the country as your own; if you use the country as bait, you can fish for the world. ”

Jiang Taigong smiled and said: "The virtue of the Holy Lord lies in subtly winning people's hearts. What the Holy King cares about is to make everyone in the world find their own place, so that people's hearts can be gained."

"What the old gentleman said is a bit straightforward."

Ji Chang smiled bitterly and said: "May I ask, sir, how can we bring the world back to its heart?"

"The world is not the world of one person, but the world of all the people in the world."

"To conquer the world, it is like chasing wild beasts, and everyone in the world has the heart to share the flesh. If we are in the same boat, we will benefit from it, and we will suffer the same harm from defeat."

"Heaven has four seasons, and earth has wealth. What can be shared with people is benevolence. Where benevolence is, people in the world will naturally follow it."

"Therefore, being able to do what the people of the world want is the king's way. Where the king's way is, the world can determine it."

"If you don't take it from the people, you take it from the people; if you don't take it from the country, you take it from the country; if you don't take it from the world, you take it from the world."

"Therefore, a country relies not on natural dangers but on people's hearts. Well, people's hearts are not as simple as the people's hearts. People have followed the trend since ancient times. The key lies in governance."

Jiang Ziya said calmly: "Today in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, everyone is confused and confused. When I look at the wilderness, the grass is better than the valley; when I look at the people, the crooked is better than the straight; when I look at the officials, they are cruel and cruel, and the law is corrupted. This is the time when the country will be destroyed. Please take this as a lesson and don't follow in his footsteps."

"In the past, in order to curb the power of our Zhou clan, King Wen Ding of Shang summoned my father Ji Li to the Yin capital in the name of a reward and killed him for an unreasonable crime."

"This is the hatred of the country and the family. I dare not forget it for a day."

King Wen exhaled a sullen breath and bowed deeply to Jiang Ziya: "This gentleman is a great talent. I am willing to accept him as my teacher and take charge of Xiqi's affairs."

"So urgent?"

Jiang Ziya was stunned for a moment: "Is Zishou looking for you?"

"Well, the king issued an order the day before yesterday. Beihai was rampant and vicious, and the people were in ruins. He ordered me to go to Chaoge to help with the state affairs and put an end to the chaos."

"I'm old. Regardless of good or bad luck, my end is approaching."

Ji Chang smiled: "After I die, I will ask my husband to assist Fa'er and fulfill our great wish together."

"Are you in such a hurry..."

Jiang Ziya was silent for a moment and glanced at Ji Fa who was hesitant to speak: "I understand, King Wen should go back first. I still have something to discuss with fellow Taoist Lin. I will go to Xiqi tomorrow and fully assist His Highness King Wu."

Ji Fa: "..."

"Thank you sir for your righteousness! Thank you Master Lin!"

Ji Chang was overjoyed, bowed deeply to Jiang Ziya and Lin Xuan, and turned to leave.

"..."

Ji Fa and Ji Dan looked at each other, bowed to Jiang Ziya, and followed Ji Chang away without saying a word.

"What are your orders, Grand Duke?"

Seeing Ji Chang and the others leaving, Lin Xuan smiled slightly and looked at Jiang Ziya.

"I don't dare to obey my orders."

Jiang Ziya said calmly: "Your time is precious, please show me the map of Qiantian Tower."

"Please ask Grandpa to take a look."

Lin Xuan nodded, took out the Tatu and handed it to Jiang Ziya.

"Well done for this title. Hey, suppressing the heavens is indeed a mysterious thing created by creation..."

Jiang Ziya immersed himself in looking at the pictures: "Fortunately, I personally supervised the construction. Others would probably be unable to do anything."

"Yes, Lu Ban said that this is the most difficult thing to do in the Tianta Tower. Even he is not completely sure..., huh?"

Huang Rong was suddenly stunned: "Grandpa, do you also know how to build towers?"

"You all know that I will be called the ancestor of hundreds of schools in later generations, and the way of civil engineering can be found among hundreds of schools."

Jiang Ziya laughed loudly: "Why don't you ask Nalu Ban if there are any peerless military strategists who don't know the art of civil engineering?"

"Okay, what Grandpa said does make sense. My father is not as good at war as you, but he is also proficient in civil engineering."

Huang Rong hesitated for a moment: "But Grandpa, I didn't tell you about this tower just now, did I?"

"I was just eating fish and didn't pay much attention to what you said."

Jiang Ziya smiled faintly: "You are indeed not the one who told me about this tower. It was Brother Yuanshi who told me about it."

Princess Longji: "..."

"Yuanshi? Yuanshi...Tianzun?"

Huang Rong was also stunned for a moment: "You guys call me headmaster, is this so casual?"

"The little empress Bingxue is smart. They all know that when Jiang Taigong fishes, whoever wants to take the bait will take the bait."

Jiang Ziya laughed loudly: "But what I want to catch must be King Wen?"

Huang Rong: "..."

"I see, I was the one who made the first impression."

Lin Xuan's thoughts moved, and he laughed and said: "I originally planned to show the mirror to the Grand Duke to help him understand his mind and nature. I didn't expect that the Grand Duke had already realized the unity of the heavens, so it would be unnecessary for him to fall down."

"I am the chief priest of the Martial Temple, and the incense from all the heavens is pouring down to me like it costs nothing. Even if I am a pig, I can attain enlightenment."

Jiang Ziya shook his head: "To be honest, although I am a bit pretentious, I may not be able to override those servants. I still took advantage of my early years."

"Your Majesty is extremely humble, which makes me ashamed."

Lin Xuan laughed dumbly and said: "This time the space is closed, Emperor Wa and others are not allowed to enter. I think the Taigong is the protagonist of the Conferred God Killing Tribulation, so he can take advantage of this loophole."

"Well, when Yuanshi Tianzun approached me, we also thought this was the case."

Jiang Ziya flicked his sleeves: "Although I have some abilities, I'm not too great. I may not have any opponents here, but when the saints return, I will definitely be honest. Don't expect me to resist Hongjun. ”

"It's not that it's not that..."

Lin Xuan laughed and said, "Do you military strategists like to show off your weakness?"

"Those who play tactics have a normal heart at all. Besides, if a military strategist likes to seek truth from facts, then his bones are like scum."

Jiang Ziya said calmly: "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. I can temporarily serve as the master of this tower. I can ask the disciples to build the Conferred God Platform. But the matter of Conferring God is to leave the reincarnation space to your little one. I won’t do it for my girlfriend, so that I won’t be dissatisfied with the space in the future and I won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

"...Ao Xue is now looking for the reincarnations of Cihang and Kong Xuan. I'm afraid it will take some time before they can come to Xiqi."

Lin Xuan nodded: "Rong'er and I are going to sea this time to complete the instructions given by Queen Tu, so we have to worry about the matter here. This Princess Longji is the deputy I originally planned to give to Grandpa."

Both Avalokitesvara and Kong Xuan proved that all heavens are unique, and the annihilation of the soul and soul is the true meaning of the annihilation of all heavens.

Even if the true spirit returns to the heavens forever, it can only be a do-over, and all the past events will be void.

So in theory, Guanshiyin should still be a little girl with braids, whether she can do magic or not is irrelevant...

Ao Xue is kind-hearted, so finding this person and bird is naturally her primary goal when she comes to the plane of gods.

Well, Lin Xuan asked Yang Jian, and there are only eight people in the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chanjiao. Cihang, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, and Wei Liusun have all been removed from the list of Yuanshi Tianzun.

It is unknown whether there were other changes.

"The little girl's magic power is low, so I'm afraid she won't be able to help Grandfather much."

Princess Long Ji was a little uneasy: "If the Grand Duke has other plans, you can just tell him."

"The little girl's cultivation is not bad, and she is also smart."

"I've gone to Chaoge. I feel like the Western Church has intervened. It's really a mess and a mess. Someone needs to keep an eye on it."

Jiang Ziya smiled: "Stay and help me with some work later. No matter what happens in the future, you will have a place in the Tower of the Heavens."

"Thank you, Emperor, thank you, Grandpa, thank you, Sister Huang!"

Princess Long Ji was moved and bowed to Lin Xuan and the others. Yingying stood up and stood aside.

"In that case, I'll have to worry about the Grand Duke presiding over this place."

Lin Xuan thought for a while: "I still have a few friends. If they come to Xiqi to look for me, please ask Grandpa to take care of them."

"Well, I can indeed take care of you now."

Jiang Ziya smiled: "Those friends of yours are all girls, right?"

"That's right..."

"Okay, I'll take care of it."

Jiang Ziya waved his hand: "By the way, Fellow Daoist Lin has some dark energy, and I'm afraid that an expert from the ancient demon clan wants to harm you. But Fellow Daoist has extraordinary cultivation, and he acts cautiously, fearing that he is planning to find a scapegoat with deep luck. Let’s start again.”

"Well, I feel the same way, but that person's cultivation is extraordinary, and it's not easy to lock in his position in a hurry."

Lin Xuan smiled: "I am traveling overseas, and I plan to deliberately expose some flaws so that the person can take action. Once that person shows his whereabouts, I will try to kill him, so as to avoid adding variables to the catastrophe. "

"Hahaha, it turns out you have already planned it, so I won't stop talking nonsense."

Jiang Ziya patted Lin Xuan on the shoulder: "What a pity. I also plan to ask fellow Taoist to owe me a favor. I will ask the little empress to grill me some more fish in the future."

"What Grandpa said..."

Huang Rong smiled: "Rong'er likes cooking very much. Since Grandpa wants to eat fish, Ronger will bake a few fish for Grandpa when he comes back."

"Haha! The empress has a kind intention, but this old man is disrespectful."

Jiang Ziya blinked and said with a smile, "It's a deal?"

"It's a deal!"
