Chapter 342 The Beginning of the Conquest of Eight Hundred Princes! Xin Ruyin Returns!
Nezha was born in the second year of Emperor Xin and is now two years old.
Although he is only two years old, he is naturally smart and his IQ is not inferior to that of a seven or eight-year-old child.
One day, Taiyi Zhenren found Nezha and said to him: "Disciple, now you are two years old, it is time to start practicing. I will teach you the Jade Void Magic Method."
Nezha heard this and pulled Taiyi Zhenren's beard while asking curiously: "Master, what is the Jade Void Magic Method?"
When Taiyi Zhenren heard Nezha's question, he immediately said proudly: "The Jade Void Magic Method was created by your master. It is all-encompassing and mysterious, and it leads directly to Daluo!
If you can cultivate this method, you can go anywhere in this big world!"
Nezha heard this and seemed to understand what Taiyi Zhenren said. He said with excitement: "Can you beat Daddy?"
"Beat Li Jing?"
Taiyi Zhenren's face was a little strange.
Daluo Jinxian beating Li Jing is really a bit too bullying!
He nodded and replied, "Of course I can win!"
Hearing Taiyi Zhenren's confirmation, Nezha was overjoyed and cheered, "Master, I want to learn Yuxu Magic!"
Hearing this, Taiyi Zhenren's face suddenly showed joy. He nodded and smiled, "Okay, Master will teach you now."
So, next, Nezha, who was only two years old, began to practice with Taiyi Zhenren.
Nezha had the foundation of his predecessor Lingzhuzi, so his initial practice speed was very fast!
After Taiyi Zhenren felt it, he was immediately very satisfied with it.
With Nezha's practice speed, he will be able to have the combat power of Taiyi Jinxian level in at most ten years!
Tens of thousands of years of hard practice for ordinary creatures!
This is the advantage of footwork and foundation!
…
Time passed quickly for half a year.
On this day, the palace was decorated with lights and colors, and it was obvious that something happy happened.
It was not because of anything else, it was the day when Emperor Xin took a concubine.
After picking and choosing, two people were finally selected.
One was Huang Feihu's sister.
The other was the legitimate daughter of a big family named Yang.
These two women were carefully selected by Fei Zhong.
Emperor Xin was quite satisfied with this and rewarded them immediately.
Marrying a concubine was just a small episode for Emperor Xin.
After this incident, Emperor Xin once again devoted his mind to building the dynasty.
Time continued to pass...
Two and a half years passed in a flash.
This year, it was the seventh year of Emperor Xin, which was the beginning of the original Conferred God Tribulation!
From the fourth year of Emperor Xin to the seventh year of Emperor Xin, after three years of development, the national strength of the Shang Dynasty has been further strengthened!
It can even be described by the four words "now is different from the past".
Many national policies in the past have now come to fruition one by one!
Emperor Xin's inner ambitions finally emerged.
After being suppressed for so long, it is time to explode!
Emperor Xin felt that with the national strength of the Shang Dynasty at this time, it was time to unify the eight hundred princes!
He couldn't help but be excited!
A great country will be born in his hands!
Just when Emperor Xin made up his mind, he received a message!
Several princes led by Yuan Futong launched a rebellion!
After hearing the news, Emperor Xin was not angry, but a smile appeared on his face!
He was worried that he had no suitable reason to conquer the eight hundred princes, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come to him!
With Yuan Futong's rebellion in the past, he would have a legitimate reason to conquer the eight hundred princes!
No one dared to say that he was wrong!
He thought in his heart with great anticipation: It's almost time, unification is just around the corner...
...
The next day.
At the court meeting.
Emperor Xin asked calmly, "Yuan Futong is plotting a rebellion. How do you think we should deal with him?"
As soon as Emperor Xin finished speaking, Grand Master Wen Zhong said coldly, "He should be killed!"
Emperor Xin nodded and responded, "He should be killed indeed! Grand Master, the incident of Yuan Futong also tells us that the eight hundred princes are ultimately an unstable factor!
Most of the princes are fence-sitters.
When our Shang Dynasty is strong, they will pretend to obey us.
When our Shang Dynasty is declining, they will rush forward without hesitation and tear a piece of meat from us!
So, Grand Master, I am ready to take this opportunity to completely unify the eight hundred princes!
I have been on the throne for six years.
In the past six years, our Shang Dynasty has undergone continuous reforms, and now the national strength has become unprecedentedly grand!
I think it is not a problem to completely merge the eight hundred princes into the Shang Dynasty!
What do you think, Grand Master?"
Hearing Emperor Xin's words, the ministers in the court were shocked!
Completely merge the eight hundred princes into the Shang Dynasty?
This is something they have never thought of before!
The reason is simple, because it is too difficult!
The emperors of the Shang Dynasty did not dare to do it. They did not expect that their current king Di Xin would dare to do it!
Not to mention other things, just this courage is not comparable to other emperors!
Before Di Xin ascended the throne, although the strength of the Shang Dynasty was strong, far exceeding the eight hundred vassal states, if the eight hundred vassal states united, it would also give the Shang Dynasty a headache!
Everyone understands the principle of lips and teeth being cold, so once the Shang Dynasty attacks some of the eight hundred vassal states without a reason, the other vassal states will not sit idly by!
Because they know that if they don't care now, then they will be the next one to be affected!
A single move can affect the whole body!
This is also the reason why the Shang Dynasty did not dare to act rashly before.
If you want to win, it can't be a miserable victory!
Otherwise, it would be a wedding dress for others!
After a moment of silence, Grand Master Wen Zhong nodded and said, "This is indeed an opportunity! After all these years of development, the eight hundred vassal states can no longer cause any trouble in front of our Shang!
If a war breaks out, I think it will take at most ten years to completely merge them into Shang!"
Ten years...
That's not bad.
Emperor Xin nodded and smiled calmly, "Then I'll leave this matter to the Grand Tutor!
I'm waiting for the Grand Tutor to return triumphantly!"
Wen Zhong clasped his fists and said, "This old minister will definitely not let the king down!"
After a pause, Wen Zhong asked again, "King, how many soldiers will I bring this time?"
Emperor Xin smiled calmly and said, "There is no upper limit. I believe in the Grand Tutor!"
When Wen Zhong heard this, a warm current suddenly surged in his heart. He bowed his hands with a moved face and said, "This old minister thanks the king for his trust! I will not let the king down!"
The other ministers in the hall also bowed their hands and said, "I wish the old Grand Tutor a triumphant return soon!"
After a long time, the court meeting finally ended.
After the court was dismissed, Emperor Xin went to see his two sons.
The eldest son Yin Jiao is now eleven years old.
The second son Yin Hong is now ten years old.
Emperor Xin has been busy with state affairs over the years and has not invested much energy in them.
He was just in a whim at this time, so he came to see.
In the future, the territory of the Shang Dynasty will become larger and larger.
His energy is limited, and he needs his sons to help him share some of the burden.
This requires that his sons cannot be useless!
They must have the ability to take charge of their own affairs!
He came to see his two sons this time to test their opinions.
"Brother, look, there is a bird's nest over there. Let's go and take it out?"
As soon as Emperor Xin arrived, he heard Yin Jiao talking, which immediately made him angry!
They are eleven years old and will soon become adults, why do they still have such an unreliable personality? !
Emperor Xin was very disappointed with them!
It seems that his two sons have been spoiled.
He also felt a little guilty in his heart, because he had neglected to discipline them over the years.
With a sigh, Emperor Xin slowly walked in front of his two sons.
Yin Jiao and Yin Hong were so scared when they saw Emperor Xin coming here that they bowed and stood up, not daring to breathe!
They were afraid of Emperor Xin to the core!
In their eyes, their father was very majestic!
He was serious and had a strong sense of oppression!
Emperor Xin looked at them and asked coldly: "You are so old, but you don't study and are here to pick bird eggs?
Can you understand something and share your father's worries!"
Hearing Emperor Xin's angry words, Yin Jiao stammered: "Father, we..., we..."
He wanted to quibble, but under the pressure of Emperor Xin's momentum, he really couldn't find a reason.
Seeing this, Emperor Xin sighed helplessly and said very disappointedly: "You have disappointed your father. Tomorrow you will follow the old master to the front line to hone your skills!
When the old master returns, you will return with him."
After that, Emperor Xin turned around and left.
Yin Jiao and Yin Hong were stunned.
After a long time, they came back to their senses.
Yin Hong said like a bereaved mother: "Brother, I don't want to go to the front line. What should we do now?!"
"What should I do? What should I do..."
Yin Jiao also muttered to himself with an uneasy look.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he said to Yin Hong: "Brother, let's go and find our mother and ask her to intercede for us!"
Yin Hong's eyes lit up as well, and he nodded in approval.
...
After returning to the study, Emperor Xin said to a eunuch: "Go and ask Master Wen to come."
Soon after, Master Wen hadn't arrived yet, but Queen Jiang Wenyue arrived first.
"I pay my respects to the king."
Queen Jiang bowed to Emperor Xin and said slowly.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xin said calmly: "No need to be polite. Are you here to plead for Yin Jiao and Yin Hong?"
After hearing what Emperor Xin said, Queen Jiang nodded and said: "I beg the king to take back his order!
The front line is too dangerous. Jiao'er and Hong'er are still children. How can they take this risk?!"
After hearing this, Emperor Xin said with a somewhat unhappy tone: "Look at what you have spoiled your two sons into over the years!
They are neither good at literature nor martial arts!
How can such a thing take on important responsibilities in the future?!
If you don't change now, do you want your two sons to be ordinary people forever?
If that's the case, then I won't force it.
I'm still strong. At most, I can have a few more sons with other concubines.
As for Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, I'll just pretend they don't exist!"
After hearing this, Queen Jiang's face turned extremely pale.
Her eyes were full of struggle.
On the one hand, she longed for her sons to take on important responsibilities in the future.
On the other hand, she didn't want her sons to go to the front to train.
After thinking for a while, she prayed: "Can the king give them another place to train?
Their bodies are too weak, and I am really worried about them going to the front!"
Hearing this, Emperor Xin responded calmly: "You can rest assured, they are my sons after all, they will not die!"
Emperor Xin's voice was full of confidence.
His current strength is at the peak of Taiyi Jinxian.
He left a backup plan on Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, so there is no problem in saving their lives!
After all, it is unlikely that the eight hundred princes have the help of Taiyi Jinxian.
After hearing the promise made by Emperor Xin, Queen Jiang could not say anything more and left immediately.
Not long after he left, Grand Tutor Wen Zhong came here.
"I, your old minister, pay my respects to the king."
When Wen Zhong saw Emperor Xin, he bowed and saluted immediately.
Emperor Xin immediately smiled and said, "Grandmaster, there is no need to be polite. Sit down and talk."
After Wen Zhong sat down, he asked curiously, "What is the matter that the king asked me to come here for?"
Hearing this, Emperor Xin sighed and said, "I have something to ask of you, Grandmaster."
When Wen Zhong heard what Emperor Xin said, he immediately shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you are embarrassing me. I don't know what it is specifically?"
Emperor Xin sighed and said, "I have been busy with state affairs for many years and neglected to discipline Yin Jiao and Yin Hong.
With their current personalities, they are really not up to the task!
This won't work.
In the future, our Shang Dynasty will become stronger and stronger!
The huge territory needs a prince to guard it!
So, it is urgent to change them now!
I hope the Grand Master can take them with him and train them well. Train them!
Remember, don't give them special treatment, just treat them as ordinary soldiers!
If they don't listen, they should be beaten.
Didn't the previous king give you a whip?
It just happens to be useful!
I hope that after you return, I can see two princes who have been reborn! "
After hearing this, Wen Zhong pondered for a moment, nodded solemnly and said: "Okay, since it is for the future of Da Shang, then the old minister will do his best!"
Hearing Wen Zhong's agreement, Emperor Xin smiled immediately, and he slowly said: "Looking at the huge court officials, I can only leave Yin Jiao and Yin Hong to the Grand Tutor.
I know that only the Grand Tutor can discipline them. "
Emperor Xin has no doubt that if Yin Jiao and Yin Hong are disobedient, Wen Zhong will really use the whip in his hand!
After chatting for a few more words, Wen Zhong left.
...
After a long time, a voice suddenly sounded in Emperor Xin's ears.
When Emperor Xin heard the voice, he was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed.
He immediately put down the work in his hands, stood up and walked out of the palace. With a flash of his figure, he disappeared on the spot.
...
Soon, Emperor Xin came to Xin Ruyin's clinic.
He saw that the door of the clinic, which had been closed for six years, was now open.
Emperor Xin's face was full of smiles, and he slowly walked into the clinic.
The voice transmission he just received was from Xin Ruyin.
The other party told him that she had returned.
So Emperor Xin rushed over immediately.
"Miss Xin, you are back after several years."
After entering the clinic and seeing Xin Ruyin, Emperor Xin laughed out loud.
Xin Ruyin shook her head and said with regret: "It's a pity that I couldn't borrow the Kongtong Seal..."
Then, Xin Ruyin told her experience of this trip in detail.
After hearing this, Emperor Xin muttered to himself with a puzzled look on his face: "Am I not qualified to hold the Kongtong Seal..." (End of this chapter)
