"It is necessary to use the pure heart essence and blood of hundreds of boys and girls as a guide to set up the 'Hide the Sky and Cross the Sea' blood sacrifice array!
This formation temporarily blinds the heavenly senses and weakens Human Dao Destiny's suppression and detection when casting spells on us! This method can be successful!
Although... it hurts Tianhe, Burdened by Heavy Karmic Force, but in order to fulfill Empress Nuwa's decree and for the sake of our future, we don't care about so much!"
"Hundreds of boys and girls..." Nine-tailed Fox's eyes flashed with an imperceptible glare, but was immediately overwhelmed by deeper greed.
"For the sake of the empress, for the immortal way True Fruit, it's worth the price! That's what we will do!"
The Demonic Qi inside the stone room suddenly became like Nine Nethers ice, biting and cold, and the rich smell of blood almost solidified.
There is no longer any hesitation or kindness in the eyes of the three demons, only the madness and viciousness of using any means necessary to achieve their goals.
In Chaoge City, ever since Wa Huang Temple started to incense, every time he thought of Empress Nuwa's peerless appearance, Di Xin felt that he did not want to eat or drink, and that the three palaces and six courtyards were all vulgar and devoid of interest.
On this day, Di Xin took a walk in the back garden to relieve his boredom. Fei Zhong and You Hun followed carefully.
While walking, Di Xin felt something in his heart, and asked casually, "I went to the Nuwa Palace to offer incense, and I happened to see his beautiful face, which is unparalleled. He has three palaces and six courtyards, Wudang, what will happen to me? What plan do you have to comfort my heart?"
Fei Zhong and You Hun looked at each other. Fei Zhong walked up to Di Xin in small steps, and immediately prostrated and smiled, "Your Majesty is the lord of ten thousand chariots. He is rich all over the world. Everything in the world belongs to your Majesty. Why think about it? Why is this so difficult?
Your Majesty will send a decree tomorrow to appoint eight hundred princes to recruit beauties to fill the harem.
If you can take in all the stunning beauty in the world, why worry about not being as beautiful as Empress Wa?"
"Hahaha! Okay! Fei Zhong These words are exactly what I want. This matter is settled!"
Fei Zhong's words directly spoke to Di Xin's heart. He thought that soon there would be many beautiful women in the harem, and he felt very happy.
The next day, Di Xin went to court early. The first thing he did was, indeed, regarding this matter. He issued an order to all the princes to select beauties and send them to Zhaoge. However, Bi Gan and other senior ministers dissuaded her from doing so in the court hall.
"Damn it! These old guys have to stop me from doing something as trivial as this!
Inside the Longde Hall, the golden dragon pillar reflects the sinister face of Di Xin.
Bi Gan After the ministers exited the hall, Di Xin irritably brushed away the pile of memorials. A jade paperweight hit the black bird pattern floor tiles, and cracks spread like a spider web.
"Fei Zhong! You Hun!"
Di Xin's voice was as low as thunder, and Fei Zhong and You Hun were so shocked that their knees went weak and they almost fell to the ground.
"The whole dynasty is filled with old men and women, and their corpses have nothing to eat! How dare you block the talent show and treat me like nothing! Do you have any good ideas to alleviate the depression in my heart?"
Fei Zhong's eyes turned sharply, and his elbow in his sleeve secretly nudged You Hun.
The latter understood it and immediately bowed forward with a flattering smile on his face, "Your Majesty, calm down the wrath of thunder!
I... I heard recently that Daji, the daughter of Marquis of Jizhou Su Hu, has the appearance of a fish sinking as a wild goose, a moon shy of a flower. She is also quiet, demure, and has both virtue and beauty. She is truly unparalleled..."
You Hun secretly observed Di Xin, and was secretly happy when he saw a sudden interest in his eyes.
Di Xin tapped his knuckles on the Human Emperor throne, making a dull sound of stone, "Jizhou Su Hu? Do you remember... His daughter seems to have promised Xi Qi's Bo Yikao?"
"Your Majesty's warning!" Fei Zhong rushed up quickly, his voice deliberately passionate.
"Because she is betrothed to Marquis of the West's eldest son, Bo Yikao, this woman is even more noble and extraordinary!"
Fei Zhong deliberately emphasized the words "Marquis of the West". Seeing Di Xin narrowing his eyes, showing his Machiavellian thinking, he immediately lowered his voice, like a poisonous snake spitting a message.
"If this girl is allowed to enter the palace to serve the king, she will show his majesty's supreme majesty and make people from all over the world bow to her.
Second thing... This is a good way to test Xi Qi's loyalty! If Ji Chang is willing to give up his daughter-in-law, it shows that he is respectful.
If he shirks the blame and resists..."
Fei Zhong's eyes flashed fiercely, and he said with a serious face, "This is the irrefutable proof of having ulterior motives!"
Di Xin's eyes glowed brightly, and he clapped his hands violently.
"Good! Send the message! Order Su Hu to bring his daughter to Zhaoge for an audience!
I want to see this stunning beauty with my own eyes and hear with my own ears whether she is really good at playing the ancient tune of <Chengyun> as rumored!"
Zhaoge In the Jiaolan Hall of the post house, You Hun was twirling his sparse goat beard and smiling, "Master Suhou, if your wife can serve the king, it will be a blessing that has been cultivated for many generations!
Jizhou, the Su family can enjoy three generations of wealth and glory, isn't it hundreds of times better than marrying Xi Qi far away?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Hu rose up like a furious lion and kicked over the heavy bronze table in front of him!
The wine vessel and fruit plate exploded and splashed, and the wine splashed.
"Shut up! Shameless sycophant!" Su Hu's beard and hair were spread out, his eyes were red, and the jade belt hook hit the red lacquered beams hard, sparks flying everywhere.
"My daughter Daji has signed a marriage contract with Marquis of the West's crown prince Bo Yikao.
Do you want to trap me, Su Hu, in a place of treachery?
Di Xin The foolish king has gone so far with his debauchery that he covets his minister's daughter-in-law! Shameful! Hateful!"
The din in the post house alarmed Zhaoge.
That night, with the candlelight flickering, Su Hu's confidants whispered to each other with their swords in their hands, their voices carrying the chill of a desperate move.
"Your Majesty, I came to report from the search horse. Master Wen Zhong is trapped in the Eastern Yi Chi You tomb. General Huang Feihu is trapped by Ghost Fang. Zhaoge is empty...
Marquis of the West Ji Chang Rende spreads throughout the world, and his reputation spreads far and wide...
I have heard that if the emperor is not upright, his subjects will surrender to foreign countries! Today Di Xin is debauched and immoral, treating his subjects as if they were nothing, forcing his daughters to be raped, and the whole family will always be in mourning!
Why not... reverse Zhaoge and defend yourself Jizhou? You can protect the ancestral temple and the country from falling, and you can protect the people from being ruined!"
These words were like fire, instantly igniting the suppressed humiliation and anger in Su Hu's heart.
He suddenly grabbed the giant pen with wolf hair and dipped it in thick ink. Under the horrified eyes from left and right, Su Hu strode towards the towering Zhaoge palace wall outside the post house!
Full of grief and anger, he wrote a poem:
If the king breaks the rules of his ministers, he will defeat the five permanent members!
Jizhou Su Hu, never go to business!!
Within Chaoge City, Longde Hall.
Di Xin is sitting high on the throne, with a pair of eyes burning with frightening anger under the beaded crown.
Su Hu The sixteen characters Blood Letter inscribed on the palace wall are like sixteen red-hot daggers, offending Di Xin's majesty as Human Emperor.
"Rebellious minister! Crazy rebel!!" Di Xin's roar shook the palace beams and made people shudder.
"Little Marquis of Jizhou, how dare you despise Tianwei like this!
Pass the decree! Call up the elite soldiers of Zhaoge. I will lead the expedition in person, crush Jizhou, kill Su Hu all over the house, and hang their heads at the gate! To serve as a warning to others!"
Human Emperor is furious and murderous.
All the ministers in the palace were as silent as cicadas. Bi Gan, Wei Zi, Zhi Zi and other loyal ministers frowned and were worried.
Now that the North Sea Yuan Futong rebellion is not over, and the Eastern Yi and Ghost Fang wars are stalemate, it is not wise to start a war again, as it may shake the country's foundation.
Just at this tense moment, the pair of sycophants Fei Zhong and You Hun exchanged a secret look.
Fei Zhong took a step forward, bowed and said with a flattering smile, "Your Majesty, calm down the fury of thunder! Su Hu is arrogant and the crime cannot be punished! However..."
After a deliberate pause to whet Di Xin's appetite, Fei Zhong lowered his voice and said with sinister calculation, "But now Northern Frontier is in an emergency, North Marquis Chong Houhu is leading the army to fight with the North Sea Yuan Futong Rebel Army and thousands of Yao Mo fought hard and were unable to do anything at all.
If Your Majesty personally conquers Jizhou, I am afraid that if Northern Frontier is missing, the evildoers will take advantage of the situation and go south, wreaking havoc in the hinterland of Central Plains, and the country will be in danger!"
You Hun immediately answered with a high-pitched voice, "What Master Fei said is absolutely true! Besides... has your Majesty ever paid attention to that Xi Bo Zhouhou Ji Chang?"
Taking a step closer, You Hun's eyes flashed like vipers.
"Ji Chang acted respectfully on the surface after his father Ji Li's 'sudden death', but in reality Xi Qi worked hard to govern and secretly harbored evil intentions. Most of the two hundred princes in the Western Territory were bewitched by him, with Zhou Bang as the leader.
Its momentum is growing day by day, getting stronger and stronger every day, and it is already in danger of losing its tail!
Daji, the daughter of Su Hu, was originally betrothed to his son Bo Yikao.
Now that Su Hu is opposing business, it is a God-given opportunity!"
Di Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and his anger subsided a little, replaced by a cold and Machiavellian tone. "Oh? What good plan do you two have?"
Fei Zhong's eyes flashed. "Your Majesty, why don't you make Marquis of the West Ji Chang your commander-in-chief and lead Xi Qi's troops to attack Su Hu?
This move kills three birds with one stone! Firstly, it saves His Majesty from having to recruit troops and mobilize the masses personally. Northern Frontier is safe.
Second, you can use this to test Ji Chang's heart! If he is loyal, he will work hard to suppress the rebellion and capture and kill Su Hu.
If he shirks and delays, or colludes with Su Hu, his rebellious intentions will be obvious! Third..."
With a cruel smile on his face, Fei Zhong said loudly, "Su Hu has been in Jizhou for many years. He has abundant soldiers and food, and has a reputation for bravery.
Ji Chang If we attack, no matter whether we win or lose, both sides will lose their troops and their generals.
If you win, Ji Chang will consume your strength; if you lose, your Majesty will have more reason to accuse Xi Qi!
This is a strategy to drive away tigers and swallow wolves, and reap the benefits!"
Di Xin Hearing this, the sinister look on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a look of cold satisfaction.
"Good! It's in line with my wishes! Send an edict: Marquis of the West Ji Chang, lead the troops and horses of the headquarters, fight for heaven, and punish Jizhou's rebellious minister Su Hu!
There must be no mistake! Order him to send troops quickly without delay!"
Xi Qi Mount Qi, Phoenix Cry land.
Marquis of the West's Mansion Residence, the atmosphere is as solemn as lead.
The will of Di Xin was like thunder, exploding in the sky above Zhou Dynasty.
The Crown Prince Bo Yikao was young and energetic. When he heard the decree, his eyes turned red instantly, he became furious, and he suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist.
"Foolish king! You have gone too far to deceive others! You took away my fiancée first, and now you are ordering my father to attack his father and frame my Ji family for injustice!
This hatred is irreconcilable! Father, rebel! Rather than suffer this humiliation, it is better..."
"Shut up!" A calm but dignified yell sounded.
Ji Chang sat in the main seat, his face as calm as water, but his clenched fists and slightly trembling beard revealed the overwhelming anger and humiliation in his heart.
His eyes were like lightning, sweeping over the impulsive eldest son. "Bo Yikao! The anger of a common man, blood splashing five steps, is this the way to achieve success? Sit down!"
Ji Fa stood aside, his face equally solemn, but his eyes shone with calmness and depth far beyond his age.
Gently pressing his brother's sword-holding wrist, Ji Fa whispered, "Brother, a little impatience will ruin a big plan.
Di Xin This plan is extremely vicious.
Defeat Su Hu is false, find out whether Xi Qi is true.
If you do the opposite now, you will be playing into his hands!
Although I, Xi Qi, have worked hard, in terms of military strength and solid foundation, I am still far from the enemy of the Shang Dynasty, who has the orthodoxy of Seven Hundred Twenty Thousand Years.
Zhaoge Wen Zhong, Huang Feihu, and even Intercepting Sect Immortals, none of us can stop them now."
Ji Chang took a deep breath and suppressed his turbulent emotions. His voice was a little tired but extremely firm.
"What Fa'er said is absolutely true. Di Xin asked us to make a knife, so we made it for him! But we didn't actually make it!
Order: Order the troops! Send out the troops Jizhou! However... order the commanders of each battalion to encircle rather than attack, and focus on intimidation. Never fight Su Hu to the death!
At the same time, secretly send an envoy to bypass Zhaoge's eyes and ears, go straight to Jizhou, and meet Su Hu!"
Jizhou City Exit, the troops are approaching the "city".
Xi Qi's army fluttered its flags and was heavily armored, encircling Jizhou City.
However, the brutal siege Di Xin expected did not happen.
On the city, Su Hu was holding a long sword, looking at the Zhou Army who was standing still despite the darkness outside the city, his brows were furrowed, and he was filled with doubts.
That night, Ji Chang's confidant San Yi Sheng secretly sneaked into Jizhou City and brought Ji Chang's personal secret letter.
In the secret room, candlelight flickered.
Su Hu After reading the letter, the anger on his face remained, but it added a bit of sadness and fear.
The letter Ji Chang was sincere and analyzed the pros and cons.
"Su Hou! In a moment of anger, he wrote a poem against business. His courage is commendable!
But don't you see Zhaoge the purple energy is like a dragon, and the sacred beast black bird is hovering?
The 720,000-year-old Shang Dynasty orthodoxy has such a profound foundation!
Although Northern Frontier Chong Houhu is sleepy, Wen Zhong and Huang Feihu are famous generals in the world, and they are even protected by the Interception Sect.
Jizhou How long can a city withstand it, even if it has elite soldiers?
Once the thunder of the heavenly soldiers descends, Mutual Destruction, Jizhou the ancestral temple will collapse, thousands of people will be in ruins, and the Su family's bloodline will be cut off! Is this what Su Hou wants?"
"Today Di Xin The false self attacks you with the intention of consuming and testing.
Chang was ordered to come here, but he really couldn't bear to fight against each other in the same room, which would make his relatives angry and his enemies happy!
Chang has a plan: Su Hou can pretend to be defeated by me and offer Daji to the court to plead guilty.
Di Xin is interested in beauty. If Suhou is soft, he will borrow the donkey down the slope to forgive Jizhou.
In this way, we can ensure that Jizhou's country will never be destroyed and the Su family's ancestral temple will never be destroyed!
Changdang turned around for Suhou in court, expressing Suhou's repentance.
Although I have wronged my beloved, I still sacrificed one person to save Jizhou, preserve the ancestral temple, and protect the people. It is really a great righteousness!
I hope Suhou will think twice and don't let a moment of anger create eternal hatred!"
Every word is like a heavy hammer hitting Su Hu's heart.
Looking around the secret room, Su Hu seemed to see the scene of the city being destroyed, the sea of fire raging into the sky, and the people wailing.
The soaring anger aroused by the humiliation gradually cooled down and turned into a heavy feeling of powerlessness before the disaster.
Su Hu sat down slumped, tears streaming down his face. "Ji Chang... said... it's true. It was me... it was my recklessness that caused Jizhou's ancestral temple community to suffer!
That's it... that's all... for Jizhou... this humiliation... I Su Hu... swallowed it!"
A few days later, Ji Chang's memorial and Su Hu's confessional seal were delivered to Zhaoge Longde Hall almost at the same time.
Ji Chang reported to Shuji that Su Hu was confused for a while and was instigated by an adulterer. Now he has repented and is willing to offer his daughter Daji to the court to plead guilty.
I sincerely ask Your Majesty to remember his past minor deeds and repentance, forgive his sins, and show mercy to Jizhou.
Su Hu's words were sincere, he confessed his sins bitterly, and was willing to sacrifice his daughter to atone for his sins. He only asked for forgiveness Jizhou soldiers and civilians.
At the court, Bi Gan, Wei Zi and other veteran ministers urged forgiveness, believing that Su Hu had already made a mistake and Ji Chang was the guarantee, so it was not appropriate to use weapons again, lest the hearts of the princes from all over the world were chilled.
Fei Zhong and You Hun saw that Di Xin's anger had subsided and his goal was about to be achieved, so they also hypocritically agreed, saying that Your Majesty is benevolent and should forgive his sins to show God's grace.
Di Xin's original intention was only for beauties, and seeing that all the officials were unanimous, especially Marquis of the West Ji Chang "obediently" defeated Su Hu.
The offended anger in my heart was mostly dissipated, and things went smoothly.
When the news came out, undercurrents surged inside and outside Zhaoge.
The people were talking a lot. Some sympathized with Su Hu's father and daughter, while others scolded Su Hu for being cowardly and incompetent.
And in the dark corner, three pairs of greedy eyes were already staring at this message.
On the official road leading to Zhaoge, the convoy of Marquis of Jizhou Su Hu moved slowly.
The once high-spirited princes now seemed to have aged a hundred years, and their brows were filled with inexorable fatigue and guilt.
In the luxurious carriage, Su Daji was dressed in plain clothes, with a beautiful face but as pale as paper, and empty eyes, like a jade sculpture that had lost its soul.
Bo Yikao's figure and the joy of the past have become the sharpest knives, cutting her broken heart repeatedly.
The tears have long since dried up, leaving only boundless cold numbness.
The team traveled to Pingqiao Station, three hundred miles away from Zhaoge, to rest.
The night is as dark as ink, and the cold wind howls.
The inn was simple and simple, with Su Hu and his guards sleeping in the front yard, and Su Daji living alone in a slightly clean side room in the backyard.
She hugged her knees and sat on the cold bed, looking at the pale moonlight outside the window, despairing of all thoughts.
"Hehehe..."
A creepy laughter, as if it smelled sweet and bloody, suddenly sounded in the room.
A sudden dark wind blew up, causing the candle flames to sway violently, almost extinguishing them.
Su Daji raised his head in horror, and saw a pink mist filling the room at some point. In the mist, a figure of a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in light gauze and naturally charming was looming, it was Nine-tailed Fox!
She looked at Su Daji, her eyes flashing with unabashed greed and cruelty, like a poisonous snake staring at its prey.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a beautiful woman that I feel pity for. No wonder even Human Emperor can't forget her."
The voice of Nine-tailed Fox is approaching with a mesmerizing Demonic Power step by step.
"It's a pity that beauty is so miserable. From now on, your body and identity belong to me!"
"You... what kind of monster are you?!" Su Daji was so frightened that he wanted to call for help, but found that his throat seemed to be strangled by invisible hands and he could not make any sound.
"Monster?" Nine-tailed Fox covered his mouth and chuckled, but his eyes were as cold as knives.
"I am acting in accordance with the decree of Empress Nuwa!
I want to borrow your skin and enter the palace to 'serve' Human Emperor Di Xin, and ruin his Cheng Tang empire! This is Heaven's Will!
It is your great 'blessing' to be able to become the body that comes to this world!"
Stretching out his slender jade fingers, Nine-tailed Fox's fingertips glowed with green light, pointing directly at Su Daji's eyebrows.
"Don't struggle, obediently sacrifice your body, your destiny, everything about you... to me!
I will 'enjoy' your soul and not waste it at all... Hahahahahaha!"
Desperate fear instantly overwhelmed Su Daji.
She could feel a cold and evil force pouring into her body crazily, tearing at her soul, and her consciousness was dissipating rapidly.
Endless darkness shrouded.
However, at the critical moment when Su Daji's last trace of clarity is about to disappear, and his soul is about to be completely devoured and refined by Nine-tailed Fox!
Above the inn, in the deep night sky, the stars suddenly burst out with unprecedented brilliance!
A starlight containing the supreme Star Laws, ignoring the distance in space and the simple roof of the station, penetrated in with incomparable precision!
This starlight, with a hint of gentle protective power, instantly enveloped Su Daji's last trace of pure true spirit that was about to be swallowed by Nine-tailed Fox!
The starlight flashed away so fast that even Nine-tailed Fox, who was so close and immersed in the ecstasy of successfully seizing the body, did not notice anything strange.
Su Daji's little bit of true spirit has been Jieyin silently crossed by this starlight in an instant, crossed the netherworld barrier, and was sent into Six Paths of Reincarnation, and was reincarnated.
In the wing room, the candle flames resumed burning steadily.
"Su Daji" slowly opened his eyes.
It's still the same charming face, but the eyes have completely changed.
The original beauty and innocence were replaced by a bone-crushing charm, and her eyes were filled with an enchantment that could turn all living beings upside down.
Raising his hands, admiring this perfect new body and feeling the aura of noble destiny contained in it, Nine-tailed Fox was extremely satisfied.
"From today on, I am Su Daji. Human Emperor Di Xin...Zhaoge... hehehe... here I come."
In the front yard, Su Hu, who was sleeping due to mental and physical exhaustion, frowned unconsciously in his sleep, as if he sensed the eternal departure of something precious deep in his blood.
In my sleep, a drop of turbid tears quietly slid down the pillow.
