Zixing made a shocked look, and Huo Ran got up: "Brother Yun, I can't think of it... Although I have not known you for a long time, I regard you as a brother and sister, why do you ......"

Caiyun Tongzi was even more ashamed, and hurriedly explained: "Didn't the younger brother just say that he had misunderstood? This is very strange, the younger brother has a great trouble, it is inconvenient to explain, please be considerate of the eldest brother." The younger brother is willing to find an antidote for the eldest brother to relieve the misfortune of his sister-in-law. ”

Zhang Zixing hesitated for a while, and finally sighed: "Brother Yun, you and my brother, I won't talk much, I just hope that you will go back quickly and find an antidote to save your sister-in-law." ”

"Don't worry, the poison won't be in the way at the moment, so the younger brother will leave and ask the eldest brother to wait here. Caiyun Boy didn't dare to delay and hurriedly said goodbye.

About half an hour later, Caiyun Tongzi hurriedly returned to the courtyard, took out a jade talisman and handed it to Zhang Zixing: "Brother Xiaoyao, just inject this talisman into the immortal power and wear it on your sister-in-law, and in less than two days, you can detoxify." It can also be worn on weekdays to prevent poison. ”

Zhang Zixing hurriedly put it in his arms and asked, "How long is the validity of this talisman?" Because my brother is romantic, he still does not change his obsession after he has achieved cultivation, and your sister-in-law is not only one person. ”

Caiyun Tongzi took out a few more: "Brother Xiaoyao is really a carefree person, this talisman will expire in ten days, I don't know if it is enough?"

Zhang Zixing counted, nodded and asked, "Brother Yun, enough is enough, but I don't know when it will be poisoned?" ”

"This ...... This poison is about six or seven days away, please rest assured that the eldest brother will definitely come to treat his sister-in-law. ”

So, it's at least a week before the conspiracy finally launches, or is it waiting for some time in the meantime?

Zhang Zixing showed a look of gratitude, and saluted Yun Xuan: "Thank you Brother Yun for your help! ”

Caiyun Tongzi showed a look of shame: "Although this matter is a misunderstanding, it is the fault of the younger brother, I hope the eldest brother will forgive me, as soon as this matter is over, Yun Yu will give an explanation to the eldest brother Xiaoyao."

Zhang Zixing knew that he didn't want to stay for a long time. said: "Brother Yun." My brother is now in a hurry to go to your sister-in-law's treatment, and it will take two days to travel back and forth. Since this matter is a misunderstanding, Brother Yun will not apologize again, if you still look up to my brother, come to the other courtyard in three days, you and my brother will drink and talk happily. ”

The boy heard him say this. Naturally, I couldn't refuse: "Don't pass it today." In two days, I will come to visit my brother. ”

Soon after Caiyun Boy left, Zhang Zixing received a report from Ying Long that Yun Xuan's residence this time was Nayue Palace.

"Micron Enlightenment...... Aren't you still giving up? Sure enough, you live up to the name of the 'King of Yue'," a cold light flashed in Zhang Zixing's eyes, "I want to see what tricks you can play......

Two days later, the early dynasty ascended to the palace, and two classes of civil and military were accumulated. The four princes listened to the edict and went to the palace to salute.

The Son of Heaven did not mention anything about the New Deal. Instead, he inquired about the development of some of the four marquis' territories, and once again praised Chonghou Hudi's efforts to quell the rebellion in public. At this time, Prime Minister Jiang Ziya was inspecting the implementation of the new policy in various places, Shang Rong was sick at home, and only Wen Zhong and Bi were in charge of the court.

There was nothing important about the court, and after the dispersal of the court, as expected by the ministers, the Son of Heaven left the four princes alone.

"The four Aiqing have guarded the Quartet for many years, and they are the ministers of the widows. Know the purpose of the widow to leave you. ”

Jiang Huan Chu asked, "Your Majesty, isn't it for the new deal?"

Zhang Zixing bowed slightly: "The four of them are the pillars that my great business relies on, and the widow plans to implement a new policy in the land of the princes of the world at this time, and specially summons the four secretaries to come to discuss." The widow also knows that there are many difficulties in this, and Siqing has any suggestions. ”

The four looked at each other. I know that I can't avoid this problem. Hand over the joint recital at the moment. Zhang Zixing took a closer look, and there were dozens of them on it. The excerpt euphemistically illustrates the shortcomings of the New Deal. It is nothing more than the old tune and long play, which is based on the example of Cheng Tang, the founding king of the Great Shang Dynasty and the virtuous monarchs of the past dynasties, to show that the gift of the ancestors should not be wasted. Zhang Zixing naturally skipped over these nonsense lines at a glance. The four princes also understood the determination of the Son of Heaven to reform the system, and proposed that if the Son of Heaven insisted on reforming, as a courtier, he could only obey, and then put forward quite a lot of requirements in the specific implementation rules. In a nutshell, it is to fight for all its own interests to the greatest extent and ask for the implementation of the new policy to be postponed. Zhang Zixing looked at it and sneered secretly, if the system was reformed according to these suggestions, the "reform" was only a superficial shell, bypassing the core interests of the princes, and there was no substantive change at all, and the economic, military and political power of the Quartet was still firmly grasped by the princes. If so, what's the point of implementing the New Deal?

Zhang Zixing made an indifferent look on the surface: "Although Siqing's suggestion is somewhat different from what the widow thinks, it also has merit. In this restructuring, Jiang Shangnai, the acting prime minister, is the supervisor, although this person is over the age of six, but he has strange skills, incisive insights, and gives advice to the widow, which is indispensable. When Jiang Shang finished his inspection and returned to Chaoge, the widow should summon him to discuss the matter. How about inviting Siqing to talk in detail at that time?"

Because of the matter of Wei Ziqi, the four princes wished that the Son of Heaven would postpone the matter and quickly agreed.

"Eqing, I heard that you have sharpened your troops and horses in the south, and you have also set up a Tianji Battalion, specializing in ordnance manufacturing and fine work?"

Zhang Zixing's casual question made E Chongyu break out in a cold sweat, and the first half of the sentence was just enough, the Tianji Battalion is a secret agency that has been established for a short time, mainly imitating the Divine Weapons Workshop of the Great Merchants to develop advanced ordnance and train spies, I didn't expect to be known by the Son of Heaven so soon, and I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

E Chongyu was sweaty and heavily clothed, and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, due to the rebellion in the Northeast, some princes in the south seem to have fluctuating hearts recently, so the subordinates have stepped up their drills and arranged them carefully, so as not to cause the rebellion of Yuan Futong." ”

Chonghou Hu originally came to see that E Chongyu was not pleasing to the eye, and when he heard that E Chongyu made a fuss about the rebellion in his territory, he couldn't help but be furious, and his face turned red, if it wasn't for the fact that the Son of Heaven was on top, he would almost start a fight with E Chongyu on the spot.

Zhang Zixing showed a look of joy: "Nan Bohou is really dedicated to the country and deserves to be commended, but the sky is the name of the king, and the widow is the son of heaven, so he can be ordered by the sky." Therefore, there seems to be something wrong with the 'day' of the machine camp that day, and the widow will give you a word

There is another meaning in this statement: I am the emperor of the land where the destiny of heaven returns, you are always just a courtier, don't think about this "heaven", there is only one way to go with "loyalty".

E Chongyu sweats and wears heavy clothes. hurriedly said: "It's the minister's lack of consideration. Zhongji Battalion, really good name, thank you Your Majesty for the name!"

Zhang Zixing nodded casually and looked at him again

Huan Chu: "Jiang Qing is the father of the queen, you are a relative of the country, and you have been loyal to the affairs of the Special Economic Zone in recent years. There is a lot of support for the moon concubine. As long as the implementation of the new policy goes smoothly and the roots of Donglu are deep, and the non-Dongqi is comparable, how will the wealth be several times greater?"

Jiang Huan Chu secretly smiled bitterly, not daring to argue.

"Over the years, Wenhuan has been successful in honing and making a lot of achievements, which is of great use. The widow intends to crown his loyal and righteous marquis. Returning to Donglu in the near future, Jiang Qing is a double marquis, which is also a good story. ”

Jiang Huan Chu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly thanked him. The Son of Heaven said: "Beibohou Chongqing has always been loyal, and he has mostly relieved the worries of the widows. If you make another meritorious service, then Bai Huang Cheng can be given to Qing forever, the right to crusade, and I hope that Qing will live up to the love of the widow. ”

Chonghou Hu didn't expect the Son of Heaven to attach so much importance to it. was overjoyed and grateful, and glanced at E Chongyu demonstratively, and suddenly thought of Wei Ziqi's words in his heart, and his excitement cooled down a lot.

"Xibohou Jiqing has the reputation of a saint. Proficient in the art of innate deduction. Benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled, and the ground can be drawn as a prison. The people are all obedient to his virtues, and even the first emperor Emperor Yi is full of praise. I heard that you have ninety-nine sons, among which the eldest son Bo Yi Kao and the second son Ji Fa are both handsome, and they are eloquent and can be of great use......"

Although Ji Chang was an old fox, he didn't hear the true meaning of the Son of Heaven's praise, so he had to be modest. Zhang Zixing pretended to look at him for a while, and said with a smile: "Actually, Ji Qing should have the life of a hundred sons, which makes the widow envious." ”

Ji Chang's heart sank, this life of a hundred sons was calculated by him many years ago, and it took a lot of effort, in recent years, the heavens have been disordered, and it is even more difficult to calculate accurately, but the son of heaven only looked at him a few times, and said it so easily.

And the Son of Heaven whispered to himself next, which made Ji Chang's heart chill: "Lei Zhenzi...... Nice name......"

Three years ago, when Ji Chang passed by Yanshan, he had picked up a baby, and immediately it was a son, a sign of a hundred sons, the baby was taken away by a Taoist who had been refining Qi from the end of Nanshan Yun Zhongzi, and named it "Lei Zhen", at that time, only San Yisheng was accompanied by him, and no one else knew, but the Son of Heaven also knew.

In fact, Zhang Zixing remembered the story of Ji Chang receiving Lei Zhenzi on the way to Chaoge in the romance, but he monitored carefully all the way and did not find such a thing, so he deliberately deceived him, and it can be seen from Ji Chang's unnatural look that the plot of Lei Zhenzi must have happened.

Ji Chang was shocked, did the Son of Heaven rely on the technique of deduction and calculation, or did he rely on the wisdom of intelligence? No matter which one it is, it is terrifying, so it seems that the matter of Weizi Qidi is only afraid......

Zhang Zixing either praised or warned, which made the four princes worried, but fortunately, the Son of Heaven did not say more, but encouraged a few words and let the four disperse. The four princes have their own hearts and minds, and return to the post house, tonight, some people are destined to have a sleepless night.

In the courtyard, Zhang Zixing was chatting happily with Caiyun Boy. Caiyun Tongzi was very guilty about the "mistaken" poisoning of this carefree brother, and apologized repeatedly, but Zhang Zixing made an appearance of great trust in him, and did not mind this, which made Caiyun Tongzi even more heartbroken. Zhang Zixing had the intention to get Caiyun Tongzi drunk like last time and ask the truth, but Caiyun Tongzi seemed to be quite cautious and didn't dare to drink.

In desperation, Zhang Zixing had no choice but to ask sideways: "Brother Yun, how long will you stay in the Chaoge Club this time?" so that Brother Fool can fulfill the friendship of the landlord. ”

Caiyun Boy thought for a while and replied: "The younger brother has something important to deal with, it will take about five days, and when this matter is over, I can stay in Chaoge for more time and reunite with the eldest brother." ”

Five days?Caiyun Boy's words made Zhang Zixing finally determine the final date for the launch of this conspiracy - the sacrifice of Mother Xin in four days!

Mu Xin is a strong woman in Chinese history comparable to Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty, she is the wife of Shang Gaozong Wu Ding, formerly known as Nuhao, is the earliest female politician and military strategist in China, strictly speaking, her name is "good", "woman" is a kind of kinship title.

The martial arts of the Shang Dynasty were most prosperous in the era of Shang Gaozong Wuding. Wu Ding expanded the territory of the Shang Dynasty several times through a series of wars. And the general who led the army to fight for Wu Ding was his queen wife. Not only can she lead troops to fight, but she is also the main priest of the country, and she is often ordered to preside over various festivals such as worshipping the heavens, ancestors, and sacred springs, serving as divination officials, and also has her own separate fiefdom, which is respected by later generations as "Mu Xin".

In order to cherish the memory of this great woman, the royal family of the Great Shang Dynasty held a sacrifice of Mu Xin every year, and the main members of the clan and ministers had to go to the altar with the Son of Heaven to perform sacrifices. Four days later is the day of the Muxin Festival, but I don't know if the other party will do it at the altar or in the subsequent banquet? In any case, it is still too late to plan now, and we cannot fight a battle that we are not prepared for.

Zhang Zixing asked a few words, but there was no gain, and persuaded Caiyun Boy to drink, although Caiyun Boy wanted to drink very much, but he was afraid of making a mistake and insisted on refusing. Zhang Zixing said disapprerovingly: "Brother Yun is too stubborn, and your important matter will not be completed tomorrow, why should you be so careful? ”

Caiyun Tongzi smiled bitterly and said that he was "sent" out of the palace by Nuwa Niangniang and was not allowed to return, Zhang Zixing didn't know if Nuwa had calculated the variables of this loose person, and asked for a while, and learned that Nuwa didn't seem to mention this aspect, so he was relieved. Zhang Zixing is still a little apologetic for Yun Xuan, but the apologies are apologies, and the abduction still has to continue.

Zhang Zixing said "enthusiastically": "Brother Yun, do you have a helper? Do you want to help your brother? Although my brother is not good, he has also cultivated for more than a thousand years, and he barely has the power of a true immortal, and he is willing to help Brother Yun." ”

"Thank you brother for your kindness, the younger brother already has a few helpers, although he is not as good as the elder brother, but he also has some strength. What's more, Niangniang also gave two magic weapons, which is more than enough for self-protection. ”

From these words, Zhang Zixing immediately judged that Caiyun Tongzi was not alone this time, and there were at least two accomplices, and his strength was above and below that of the True Immortals, and one of them must be proficient in poison arts.

"That being the case, I can rest assured for my brother," Zhang Zixing patted Yun Xuan's shoulder, "Brother Yun must be cautious about the magic weapon given by Niangniang, you must know that people's hearts are unpredictable, and they should not be revealed unless they have to, so as not to increase the danger." ”

Caiyun Tongzi nodded gratefully, and secretly said that this brother is really a good person, and his trust and goodwill towards Zhang Zixing have greatly increased in his heart, but he doesn't know that this carefree brother is actually a trafficker who specializes in kidnapping Xiao Zhengtai.
