The eldest prince of Yin Shang

Although Shen Gongbao was optimistic about Yin Jiao, and the purpose of going to the inn was to get close to Yin Jiao, but he also had another purpose, which was to investigate the abnormal spiritual vortex.

Shen Gongbao had already inquired from the side, and few people went to live in the post station in Jizhou City, and before and after the aura vortex was created, the Yin Shang prince in front of him had stayed.

Whether Yin Jiao is a qi practitioner is very important to Shen Gongbao. One must know an undisclosed unspoken rule in the Three Realms, that is, the emperor is not allowed to practice qigong to prove the way of immortality.

After all, if the human race is the protagonist of the world, if there is an eternal emperor, it will not be good for any race. With Shen Gongbao's character, he must first investigate. The eldest prince made it.

For Shen Gongbao, whether Yin Jiao is a Qi trainer has little to do with him. After all, Shen Gongbao just wants to preside over the catastrophe of conferring gods in the world, and to find his own opportunities in the catastrophe. After all, the current emperor Xinnian is full of strength and is in the prime of life. There is no such thing as Yin Jiao succeeding to the throne in the midst of a catastrophe.

Yin Jiao is just a springboard for Shen Gongbao. If he wants to get close to Emperor Xin, who is the emperor, through his eldest son, the future heir is the best choice. However, it is also necessary to know whether Yin Jiao is a Qi refiner. Attitude towards Yin Jiao.

Observing closely, Shen Gongbao used his spiritual sense to investigate, but did not find any mana fluctuations in Yin Jiao's body, but Shen Gongbao did not rule out that Yin Jiao had some way to suppress the mana fluctuations. , it is impossible for Yin Jiao to have no hole cards.

On the way, Yin Jiao kept chatting with Shen Gongbao, but he was also testing Shen Gongbao's real purpose a little bit, but Shen Gongbao was also very alert and didn't reveal anything at all.

When Yin Jiao and Shen Gongbao were probing each other, in a towering palace in the distant Chaoge City, Di Xin, dressed in a black uniform embroidered with a black bird pattern, stood in front of a huge map with frowned eyebrows, silent. language.

And not far from Di Xin, there were two thin officials standing with their hands down. Although the two of them looked like rats, their eyes were shining brightly, and they seemed to be extremely shrewd people.

"Fei Zhong, the spy sent to monitor Dong Bohou Jiang Huanchu is back?"

Di Xin didn't turn his head back at this time, and continued to stare at the huge map to the east. In that vast area, a few particularly conspicuous place names could be faintly seen on it, and within the vast area, it was written A big ginger character.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, all the spies in the Dongbohou area have lost contact. I suspect, suspect..."

Fei Zhong didn't dare to say any more after he had said this, and another thin young man beside Fei Zhong kept giving Fei Zhong's envoy winks, which meant to tell him to be cautious in his words and deeds.

"Are you suspecting an inside thief?"

"Placing spies in the princes of the four directions is something that has been prepared as early as the king's time. If there is a possibility of internal thieves, first thoroughly investigate the cadres and spies to find out the internal ghosts, and at the same time affect other spies."

To Fei Zhong's surprise, when Di Xin heard that there was a problem with the secret agents of the two dynasties, he didn't show a furious expression, as if it was an inconspicuous thing like the autumn wind blowing away fallen leaves.

While lamenting Di Xin's heart, he also became more respectful to Di Xin. In fact, what the courtiers are most afraid of is this kind of emperor who can't show emotions because he can't guess what the other party is thinking.

"How is Ji Chang?"

Just when Fei Zhong and another skinny young man were trembling and didn't know what to say, Di Xin shifted his gaze to the opposite of the area with the word Jiang, where there was a huge "Ji" from the west.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the princes of the [-] towns under Ji Chang's command have been eaten away by Ji Chang. Although the princes of the [-] towns are separated in name, in fact, Ji Chang's territory has been formed in the west, and the rest of the princes are just puppets! "

"However, Your Majesty, the Western Jichang is nothing to worry about. Although the population of Xibohou's territory is increasing day by day, and the national strength is also increasing day by day, but the five gates are in the hands of the King, like a sharp knife, straight into Xiqi City, and they can't do anything. storm!"

Hearing what another thin young man said, Fei Zhong couldn't help but also stepped forward and echoed.

"That's right, Your Majesty! What Doctor Youhun said is right. Not only are the five passes going straight into Xiqi, but there are also Jiameng Pass and Qinglong Pass on the flanks. Ji Chang is nothing to worry about."

"The only thing that is difficult to deal with now is Nan Bohou and Dong Bohou. When these two were the first kings, they had already built their respective territories like Tietong. Moreover, there are many pests and miasma in the south, so it is not suitable to send a large army to conquer. This is the reason for pampering Nan Bohou so much."

"Dong Bohou's status is respected, but he is the head of the dynasty. If he has committed a serious crime, he cannot easily raise a sword against him. However, judging from the direction of Dong Bohou's expansion, it is in the direction of Dongyi. Now in terms of territory alone, Now I'm afraid that Dong Bohou's territory is already the largest among the four princes!"

After hearing what Fei Zhong and You Hun said, Di Xin nodded involuntarily. Although Xi Bohou was considered a thorn in Di Xin's eyes, he was still much worse than Dong Bohou and Nan Bohou.

The location of Nanbohou's territory is his natural barrier. Therefore, since Emperor Xin took the throne, in the south, he has focused on defense. close".

As long as the Sanshan Pass is guarded, the lifeline of Nanbohou Dongchu will be strangled, but even so, a gradually powerful south with countless resources is still a big hidden danger for Yin Shang.

Dong Bohou, on the other hand, used the power of Emperor Xin to sweep Dongyi back then, and sent troops to the east, constantly sweeping Dongyi's territory. In name, it was to prevent problems before they happened, but in fact it was population plunder and territory occupation.

Moreover, after Emperor Xin succeeded to the throne, Dong Bohou claimed to be the head of the country, which attracted the Dongyi people who were frightened at first, and were continuously integrated into the realm of Dong Bohou, becoming civilians under Dong Bohou's rule.

This undoubtedly increased Dong Bohou's territory and population. Seeing that Dong Bohou's power was growing day by day, Di Xin became more and more afraid of him, and he also felt a sense of crisis about his future position as the emperor of Yin Shang.

In Di Xin's view, among the current sons, both the eldest son and the second son are born of Empress Jiang. In the foreseeable future, Dong Bohou's status will be even higher, so it is just a wandering soul. Whether he can stop Dong Bohou, who is in full swing, is a big hidden danger.

Thinking of this, Di Xin, who was standing still facing the big map, had a gloomy expression on his face, and a violent murderous intent emanated from his body, causing the two people who were standing in the distance with hands down to shiver involuntarily.

This killing intent was acquired by Di Xin on the battlefield, after experiencing a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. This killing intent was unintentionally released by Di Xin. For Fei Zhong and You Hun, just this one action may hurt their minds.

I don't know how long it took, Di Xin seemed to realize his gaffe, and the killing intent disappeared instantly, looking at the big map as he did at the beginning.

After the killing intent disappeared, Fei Zhong and You Hun finally had a blush on their pale faces, and they looked at each other with shock and fear in their eyes.

"How's the suburb?"

Nadi Xin looked in the direction of Beihai in the north, and asked suddenly. This sudden question stunned Fei Zhong and You Hun. Although they knew that Yin Jiao, the eldest prince of the Yin Shang Dynasty, went to Beihai and joined the army.

But this news was not made public, and only ten people knew about it. Since Fei Zhong and You Hun were in charge of Di Xin's intelligence department, they naturally knew about it, but they just pretended not to know it before.

But now that Di Xin asked such a question, Fei Zhong and You Hun couldn't think of why Di Xin asked such a question, but when they met the king, there was not much time for the two of them to think. opened the mouth.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is currently staying in Jizhou by the Grand Master Wen, and asked him to escort food and grass. However, Hou Suhu of Jizhou has already guessed the identity of the eldest prince, and the news that the eldest prince is in northern Xinjiang may have already spread. It's all over the place."
