I, the younger brother of King Zhou, lead the Taoist ancestors to do business

Xiqi.

In the early morning, just after dawn, the fog had not cleared, and some people came out of the thatched huts on both sides of the street.They rubbed their sleepy eyes and muttered: "The weather is getting colder and colder now."

Most of these people are old people, they don't sleep much, and they have nothing to do anyway, so it's better to squat at the door early and wait for the food to be delivered.In this way, we can also guard against the deduction of those officers and soldiers.

Gradually, the sky became brighter and brighter, and the first rays of morning light sprinkled on the earth, and some strong men came out to work.

Some of them believed in the Second Young Master, even if the Second Young Master had to make them work before they could be paid, they just frowned and resignedly picked up their hoes.

Of course, there are more people who are willing to listen to the nobles.It's just that the nobles don't give food empty-handed, but need them to sign a contract.It was written in the deed that no matter what happened in the future, they were not allowed to leave Xiqi.If they want to fight, they have to pick up their weapons and leave without saying a word.

Those with a keen sense of smell sensed something was wrong early on, and left secretly in the dark a few days ago.More people are thinking that Xiqi has endless food, what can be wrong?Staying is taking advantage!

At the beginning, Xiqi blocked the news after the Yin Shang broke through the three cities.Today's people still think it's a small fight outside, and they don't even know where the Yin Shang army has captured.

The sky was getting brighter, and the old man standing at the door of his house paced back and forth, looking more and more anxious.

What's going on today?Half an hour has passed since the usual food distribution!

The sigh became more and more obvious, and as the sun was hanging in the sky, more and more people were at the door, and even lazy people who liked to sleep late woke up.

After another half an hour, the people finally couldn't bear it and chased after the granary in a big way.

However, what they didn't expect was that countless people gathered at the gate of the granary.The atmosphere was oppressive and anxious, children were crying from hunger, and some men were shouting.

"I don't care! It's agreed to give us food, what is it without food?"

"Obviously, I saw that some people were carrying food and leaving just now!"

The person guarding the food was frowning, "I woke up early this morning, and only a little of the food was poured out. Those people didn't distribute the food, it was obviously robbed!"

"Snatch? I don't believe there is no food in it, it must be hidden by you! Open the granary and let us go in and have a look, I have to find it!"

"No more, really no more!"

The grain guards rushed to stop them, but these people's tempers had long been spoiled, and they became more daring and presumptuous. Coupled with the fact that they were hungry all morning, a few impulsive people went up to push the granary away.

Most people are watching, while a small number of people rush inside.

The soldiers hurriedly stopped here, the woman was holding the child, the man was standing in the crowd, and the eyes of the onlookers were all indifferent.

There are only five or six soldiers left here, and they can't stop them at all.In this way, the granary was washed away, and the people who guarded the granary were so anxious that they burst into tears.

Until the gate was knocked down, everything in the granary was exposed to the eyes of everyone.They looked inside and saw that the granary was empty, only footprints all over the ground and a few scattered grains that fell on the ground.

Is the granary really out of food?Everyone was at a loss, followed by panic.

If there is no food, how can they live? !

Some old people's eyes flickered, and they were buried in the crowd, pretending to have the same expression as everyone else.After everyone dispersed, they hurried back home, and at the same time checked whether there was anyone following them behind them.

The food in Xiqi is distributed according to the population, which is usually just enough, but there are always some frugal people who will save some for each meal. Over the years, they have accumulated forty to fifty catties of food.Taking these grains is enough for their family to escape to Yin Shang!

However, how could they not guess their thoughts?

The first reaction of many people in Xiqi was to flee, but when they came under the city wall, they found that the gate was tightly closed.

Everyone was anxious, and some even knocked on the door with tears in their eyes, begging to let them go.

At this moment, the nobleman walked up to the city wall, took a piece of paper and said: "Don't forget the contract you signed for me! Why, eat mine and use mine, and now you want to escape?! I didn't work without you , enjoy the blessings with you? How can there be such a beautiful thing in the world!"

Everyone was in grief and indignation, and someone shouted at the top of their voices: "What are you afraid of him doing? There are so many of us, if you don't believe it, you can't rush out!"

As soon as this remark came out, people in the crowd were moved, and the scene was noisy and chaotic.

The noble sneered, and with a wave of his hand, the soldiers pressed a few strong men to the city wall.

The nobleman pointed to the heads of these people and shouted: "These people made trouble in the morning and smashed the granary! This time they broke the law and caused turmoil. They should be executed according to the law!"

Before the common people could react, they saw the soldier swiping his sword and the head fell to the ground.

There were screams from the crowd, and it was obvious that the people were quite frightened.

The noble laughed wildly. He grabbed the knife from the soldier and pointed it at the people, "Let me see who dares to disobey the law today!"

The people shuddered.

"After signing the contract and violating the contract, it is still to be executed!" As soon as he finished speaking, a group of soldiers rushed over and stood guard under the city wall, each with a knife in their hand.

The people stepped back, their eyes full of horror.

In fact, someone said it was true at the beginning, but as long as they work together, the soldiers in front of them are not opponents.

However, whoever rushes to the front is the easiest to die.Everyone wants to get out alive, not to be that dead person!

In this way, the two sides fell into a stalemate.

Fearing Liusun, he wanted to take Ji Fafei back, but on the way Ji Fa shook his head and said he wanted to be quiet.

Ji Liusun looked at Ji Fa complicatedly, nodded, and agreed.Before leaving, he gave Ji Fa a strong horse, and cast spells on the horse so that Ji Fa would not be hurt on the way back.

Ji Fa rode back to Xiqi alone, and the horse's hooves changed from slow to fast, faster and faster.

The grass and trees on both sides flashed in his pupils like light and shadow, his black hair flew up, and the black hair outlined his ears, and there were always two light spots dancing back and forth fighting in his eyes.

No one knows, there has been a voice constantly circling in his mind.

[I only lost once, but there is still a chance, Xiqi can definitely turn defeat into victory! ]

[You are the son of destiny, destined to lead Xiqi to replace Yin Shang.Destiny is destined, how dare he, a wealthy businessman, change it?What ability does Zisheng have to turn things around? ! ]

It seemed that someone was scratching his head, trying to push it in one direction, and the other party's voice was paranoid and full of obsession.

Ji Fa pursed his lips. Although he had been looking ahead, his eyes were getting darker and darker.

He is destined to be the king of the future...

He recited this sentence alone in his mind, and the scene of that day appeared in his mind for a moment.

In the dark, the gods fight.

He is the king of the future, and he lost to the king of Shang in the martial arts competition. Even though he held a book of war that did not belong to him, he also lost to the king of Shang in the art of war.

The gods of Xiqi lost to the gods of Yin Shang.

Even the owner of the voice that kept talking in his head... lost.

There was light in Ji Fa's eyes, and he smiled, with a bitter smile.

The moment Ji Fa pushed open the gate of Xiqi city, the scene in front of him was like the purgatory on earth in his mind.

There were children crying on the street, people's eyes were numb, and there were still wet blood stains on the ground.

Even though the sun was in the sky, he felt that the sun was black and even the wind was cold.

In the past, although the common people were often numb, they at least had flesh on their bodies, and their complexions looked ruddy.

In just a few days, people lost weight obviously, and their complexions became sallow.

"Come on! Food is being distributed! Four people weigh a catty, go to the field immediately after eating!" Soldiers came pushing carts, and people lined up to get the food.They were always silent, without any trace of past curses.

Looking at all this, Ji Fa stepped on the ground with his silver boots.I don't know which house's roof was scraped, the straw fell to the ground, and the mast on the side was also blown down, and no one went to repair it.

He walked through the street step by step, and all the good things became memories as the food ran out.

Suddenly, he didn't know where his feet touched, and one of them didn't stand firm and almost fell down.At this moment, the fairy in white supported him.

Ji Fa raised his head, seeing a familiar face, it turned out to be Jiang Ziya.

Jiang Ziya didn't smile, he always liked to look into the distance, after a while he silently led Ji Fa to an empty place and sat down.

"...In this way, no one dared to go out of the city. Although the nobles are making a lot of noise, some of the food that the common people eat now is also given by the nobles. Of course, what they give is also a small number, most of which are collected by the Marquis and the princes. "

Ji Fa looked straight at Jiang Ziya, without a single wave in his voice.

"Why doesn't father let them go?"

Jiang Ziya paused, "Because the young masters colluded with the nobles, they have already owned half of Xiqi's power. The Hou Ye is soft-hearted, and the nobles are half-true, half-false, so that the Hou Ye thought it was not a big deal. They are afraid of you. When you are not around, they almost talked about your father and wanted to abolish you."

Ji Fa didn't say much, he looked at him indifferently, "I remember...the people who took refuge in me didn't sign the contract, why didn't they leave?"

Jiang Ziya was silent at first, and then said: "At the beginning, they would rather give up the huge profits given by the nobles, and trust you. Now that you haven't spoken, how can they leave at will?"

Ji Fa's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his eyes.After a long time, the eye sockets turned slightly red.

He suddenly raised his head and took a breath, looking at his head, if I want to be Lord Xibo, wouldn't it be difficult? "

Jiang Ziya's eyelids moved, but he was not surprised.

He stood up directly, cupped his hands and bowed to Ji, "My lord, if you use the power of a human, it will be difficult. If you use the power of a god, it will only be an instant."

Ji Fa nodded indifferently.

In the distance, there are still noble soldiers bullying the common people.Ji Fa touched the jade around his waist, and his momentum became stronger and stronger.

Jiang Ziya lowered his head and looked at the piece of jade in doubt. He remembered that the son had never brought the jade with him before he went out to fight, nor had he ever owned the jade.

I don't know when, with the first scream, the moonlight at night was bloody.In the city, the sound of horseshoe armor was heard everywhere, and one noble mansion after another was forcibly smashed open...

The Yin and Shang army captured two more cities in a row. As they got closer and closer to Xiqi, the people in the captured cities were not panicked, but relieved.

Xu Qingxue has been accompanying the army, and once the army breaks through a city, she will govern it.Her ability is getting higher and higher, her methods are becoming more proficient, and she is getting more and more comfortable in cleaning up the mess.

After Zisheng was free, he once said to Xu Qingxue with a smile, "I can't see that in 20 years, the Yin Chamber of Commerce will usher in a woman."

Xu Qingxue smiled, pursed her lips, and lowered her eyes, "Maybe in a few years, there are more talented women than Qingxue."

Zisheng shook his head.

One day, when Xu Qingxue was patrolling the street, she suddenly frowned, clutched her chest and squatted down, her legs throbbed in pain, as if they were broken.

She held back abruptly and didn't make a sound.

Two hours later, in the room, the boy put the silver needles into a box, and he whispered to Xu Qingxue, "Don't be so tired, go to bed early when the sun sets, and don't stay up until midnight."

Xu Qingxue shook her head, she smiled and wanted to get up, but just as she moved, something seemed to surge up in her throat, and she smelled a bloody smell.

The young man was a little angry, and he reprimanded: "I just said it, don't move around! What can you do if you just rest for a day?!"

Xu Qingxue heard the words, and the majesty of an official was revealed, "I can't get up today, what should I do if I delay the march and miss the major business affairs of Yin and Shang?"

The young man is also Doctor B, he stomped his feet anxiously, "You can first tell others what you are doing!"

Xu Qingxue waved her hand directly, "No, they have no experience, and they don't know where things are going in the city. I can deal with the things in the city in two days and put them on them. Well, it will take five or six days! It's better for me to sleep and get up by myself."

Doctor B said anxiously: "Then you simply go to sleep!"

Xu Qingxue turned her head and frowned, "This is a major business matter, because it's ridiculous for me to delay a day alone!"

Doctor B looked at her straight, and finally said helplessly: "You have been sick since you were born, and if you have taken care of your body since childhood, you can still live past 50 years old. But you have been too tired these few years, and your body has been exhausted. Well, if you start recuperating from now on and don't participate in political affairs, you can live for another six or seven years at most. If you are still as tired as before, I'm afraid you won't live long!"

Xu Qingxue was stunned when she heard the words, and after a while, she raised her head and asked, "I won't live long... Then can I live long enough to capture Xiqi?"

Doctor B swayed, staring at Xu Qingxue with some water stains in the corners of his eyes, "It should be possible..."

"That's good." Xu Qingxue smiled.

Doctor B's eyes were a little dazed, and he looked back at Xu Qingxue every two steps.Xu Qingxue is afraid of the cold, even in summer, there is always a carbon basin in the room, the woman is thin, but her waist is always straight.
