Chapter 386: Not the same kind of people
At this time, Ji Chang's sons Bo Yikao and Ji Fa also came in. Seeing their father's smiling face, they were quite curious.
They hadn't seen their father so happy for a long time.
Ji Fa asked: "Father, you are in such a good mood today. Is there anything good?"
Bo Yikao also stared at his father without blinking.
Ji Chang laughed and said: "Good, it is indeed a great thing. Today, you two will go out hunting with me!"
Hunting?
Bo Yikao and Ji Fa were even more surprised.
It was Ji Fa who spoke: "Father, don't you always dislike hunting?"
"Son, today I am going hunting for you, not hunting animals!" Ji Chang smiled.
Bo Yikao and Ji Fa were even more confused.
If you don't hunt animals, what kind of hunting is it.
Seeing the puzzled look on his two sons' faces, Ji Chang laughed and said: "Today, I am going to hunt people, and I am going to hunt a saint who will help me achieve hegemony in Xiqi!"
As the power of Xiqi continued to grow, Ji Chang's ambitions also continued to grow.
In addition, his father Ji Li worked hard to make Xiqi better and better, so he was suspected by the previous Shang King Wen Ding, and was summoned to Yindu and killed on false charges.
Ji Chang always wanted to overthrow the rule of Yin Shang.
King Zhou can sit on the throne of the world?
Why can't I, Ji Chang of Xiqi, sit on it?
After speaking, Ji Chang strode out, his back straight, as if he was a dozen years younger in an instant.
Climbing the stairs did not hurt his waist, and his legs were not sore.
Bo Yikao and Ji Fa hurried to catch up.
They were also curious about what kind of person their father would invite today.
The three of them, father and son, took a large group of people and went out to hunt aimlessly in the breeze.
It seemed that there was a hand of fate in the dark, guiding them forward.
Ji Chang and his sons came to the bank of the Wei River unknowingly.
I saw an old man with white hair but vigorous spirit sitting on a big rock by the river, fishing.
Although this old man is old, he gives people the feeling that he has extraordinary temperament and is full of energy.
He is not someone else, but Jiang Ziya, who was ordered by Yuanshi Tianzun of Kunlun Yuxu Palace to go down the mountain to assist Xibo Hou in destroying Shang and becoming a god.
Seeing this, Ji Chang felt that this old man had a great affinity with him for some reason, so he walked forward to talk.
After a conversation, Ji Chang couldn't help but be amazed.
He never thought that an old man who enjoyed fishing would know so much about the world's major events and the country's military and civil governance.
This old man's knowledge is as profound as the sea, and his views are novel and his insights are unique.
Ji Chang also found that this old man who fished had a deep attainment in the five elements, numerology and the art of using troops.
Now, he can almost be sure that this Jiang Ziya is the person he is looking for, the saint who assisted Xiqi in achieving hegemony!
Ji Chang, who was eager to find talents, immediately invited Jiang Ziya to assist him.
If you don't take what God gives you, you will be blamed.
Ji Chang knew that if he missed Jiang Ziya, he and Xiqi would regret it.
Jiang Ziya asked Ji Chang with a smile: "Hou Xibo, how do you invite me into the city?"
"On horseback or in a sedan chair, it's up to you." Ji Chang said respectfully.
Jiang Ziya shook his head and said: "I don't ride a horse or a sedan chair!"
"Then how do you want to go back to the city with me?" Ji Chang asked puzzled.
Jiang Ziya pointed to Ji Chang's Xibo chariot and said: "Hou's chariot must be given to me."
The civil and military officials who came with Ji Chang were slightly stunned when they heard this!
Only Xibo could ride this chariot. Although Ji Chang was called Xibo, he was equivalent to the king of Xiqi in Xiqi.
His chariot is almost the same as the king's chariot. Only the king can ride it. Who do you think you are, Jiang Ziya?
You want to ride the chariot of Xibohou? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself!
Ji Chang nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, sir, please get in the car."
However, Jiang Ziya raised another problem and said, "If I want to ride in the car, the king must pull it himself. Otherwise, I won't ride!"
When Jiang Ziya said this, not to mention the accompanying civil and military officials, even Ji Fa felt that he was too much!
Jiang Ziya was going to treat Ji Chang as a horse, as an animal to pull the cart!
However, Ji Chang was so eager to seek talents that he nodded and agreed directly.
"Father..." Ji Fa wanted to dissuade him.
But he was stopped by his brother Bo Yikao.
Ji Chang looked at his son and said, "No need to say more!"
Then, Jiang Ziya got in the car, and Ji Chang pulled it in front, walking forward step by step with difficulty.
Ji Chang usually lives a life of luxury, with no burdens on his shoulders or hands. Today, pulling a cart is a great torture for him!
After pulling for a while, he would stop to rest.
Jiang Ziya, however, fell asleep in the cart!
The civil and military officials were so angry!
Ji Chang rested for a while, then continued to pull for a while, but couldn't pull anymore, so he rested for a while, and then pulled again.
This cycle repeated three times, and he was sweating and panting.
Ji Chang felt that he was going to die, so he had to say to Jiang Ziya who was sleeping in the cart:
"Sir, I really can't pull anymore!"
Jiang Ziya slowly opened his eyes, got off the cart, stroked his long beard, and asked: "Hou Xibo, how many steps did you pull me for?"
Ji Chang said: "I didn't count, I don't know!"
Jiang Ziya smiled and said: "Hou Xibo, you pulled me for 808 steps. From now on, I guarantee that your descendants will rule the world for 808 years."
If Chen Qilin had not appeared, Ji Chang's Zhou Dynasty would indeed have been completely destroyed for more than 800 years.
Of course, with the arrival of Chen Qilin now, Jiang Ziya's move has become a false promise that can never be redeemed!
In the subsequent history books of this world, Jiang Ziya’s cowhide will also be recorded.
Of course, this is all for later.
When Ji Chang heard this, he regretted it very much and hurriedly said: "Sir, please get in the car quickly and I will pull for a while."
This old man Jiang Ziya is absolutely extraordinary. Naturally, the longer his children and grandchildren can stay in the country, the better, preferably for generations to come.
Ji Chang was going to use all his strength to pull him 3,000 more steps.
However, Jiang Ziya shook his head and said: "It's too late, it can't be done!"
After this coquettish operation, Ji Chang finally led Jiang Ziya back to the city and named Jiang Ziya the Prime Minister of Xiqi.
Jiang Ziya began to suggest that Ji Chang rebel immediately.
How can we conquer the world without rebellion?
But Ji Chang is still hesitating...
Ji Chang changed the subject and said: "Jiang Xiangguo, there are recent rumors that there is a Tiandao Tower in Chaoge City and a Mr. Tiandao Tower who knows everything. Do you think we can find this person?"
Jiang Ziya waved his hands and said:
"Bohou, Mr. Tiandaolou helped King Zhou eliminate disasters and ward off disasters, and he also knew the secrets of heaven. He was helping Zhou to do evil.
He has evil intentions and is not the same person as us. I suggest you not to interact with this person!
Otherwise, it will definitely bring disaster to Xiqi! "
Ji Chang nodded: "Prime Minister, what you said makes sense!"
…
This day.
King Zhou also took action.
He issued an edict in Longde Hall:
Let the four great princes, Dongbohou Jiang Hengchu, Xibohou Jichang, Nanbohou E Chongyu, and Beibohou Chonghou Hu, bring congratulatory gifts to Chaoge to celebrate his birthday.
The purpose of King Zhou was to kill Jichang, the Marquis of Xibo.
As long as Ji Chang dies, Xiqi will be leaderless.
At that time, King Zhou will mobilize a large army to attack Xiqi, and he will definitely defeat Xiqi.
If King Zhou wants to come, the four largest princes in the world will definitely come.
After giving the order to retreat from the court, King Zhou rushed to Tiandao Tower again.
This time, he deliberately chose a time when it was almost lunch time and was still hungry.
