    Chapter 438 Bill of Rights

    Daji, whose original surname is Ji and whose given name is Da, is from the Sioux tribe, which is also the descendant of the former Kunwu.  At the same time, Daji is the daughter of the current leader of the Kunwu tribe and a contemporary saint of the Su tribe.

    Under the joint promotion of the Su clan elders and Xibohou Jichang, in the name of the daughter of Xibohou Suhu, together with hundreds of beauties, as well as gold and silver treasures, cattle, sheep and horses, Daji was paid tribute to the Shang Dynasty as a slave.  King Xin.

    ¡°Well, it is indeed a slave, although this slave is a beauty.

    In fact, this is a tradition in the slave society. The population of the defeated country that pays tribute to the victorious country will be demoted as slaves, regardless of their previous status.

    However, neither Ji Chang nor the elders of the Su clan had thought that Di Xin no longer seemed to have much desire to possess beautiful women. What was left was just a feeling of envy and jealousy.  Jealousy, and a bit of inexplicable hatred, in short, it is a very complicated emotion.

    Responsible for disrupting Emperor Xin's harem, and then achieving the great dream of helping the Yousu tribe realize the anti-Shang Dynasty and restore Xia Dynasty, Daji followed her fake father Suhu, Hou Suhu of Jizhou, and slept on the road, and finally arrived at Chaoge, the capital of the Shang Dynasty.

    Perhaps Su Hu's bribery of Fei Zhong and Youhun, two close ministers of the Emperor, had an effect, or perhaps Ji Chang, a wise prince, had an effect with his kind words in front of Prime Minister Shang Rong, Yabi Gan and others. It may also be that  Di Xin felt that Su Hu's tribute was very sincere. In short, the original major rebellion case, under the joint efforts of all parties, intentionally or unintentionally, ended in such an anticlimactic manner that Emperor Xin pardoned Su Hu's crime.  He returned to Jizhou for reflection, which was considered an end.

    However, there is one thing that is unsatisfactory, that is, since entering the palace, the most beautiful woman of the Su clan, the saint slave Daji, has not received any appreciation from Emperor Xin, and has not even been appreciated by Emperor Xin.  Take a good look at it.

    Although Daji failed to make any waves in Chaoge, as the saying goes, this earth will continue to turn around no matter who you leave it!

    Time in this prehistoric world did not stop because Daji failed to disrupt the harem of the Shang Dynasty.

    By the way, Emperor Xin originally planned to kill two birds with one stone by having Xibo Hou Jichang and Jizhou Hou Suhu clash with each other in order to consume the strength of the Western Zhou tribe.  Unexpectedly, Ji Chang was able to persuade Jizhou Hou Suhu to surrender with a letter. Not only did this fail to weaken the Xibo Hou, but it gave Ji Chang a reputation as a wise prince.

    Di Xin was very unhappy that such a brilliant move ended up like this.

    However, Ji Chang also knew that since his father Ji Li, the Shang royal family had always been wary of the Western Zhou Dynasty and had never relaxed its guard against the Western Zhou Dynasty.  Fearing that Di Xin would get enough evidence of the rebellion conspiracy, Ji Chang became more and more cautious in his actions, and even refused to make even the smallest mistake. This made Di Xin, who had always been deliberately looking for trouble,  There was really no excuse for the attack.

    Since there was no way to cause trouble for his uncle Ji Chang, Emperor Xin fortunately put all his energy on domestic political affairs.

    After several years of hard work, although the Shang Dynasty has achieved restorative development, it is even more difficult to push forward the strength of the Shang Dynasty.

    As the second slave dynasty, the Shang Dynasty has ruled Kyushu for more than 500 years.

    If we include the more than 500 years of the Xia Dynasty, the first slavery dynasty, the entire slave society has lasted for more than a thousand years and has gradually entered the twilight stage.

    Specifically, the life of the slave-owning class is becoming increasingly decadent. In order to maintain their luxurious and luxurious life, the slave-owning class has to increase its exploitation of the slave class.

    Life was miserable, and rebellions by the slave class occurred from time to time.

    The slaves actually dared to question the dictatorial rule of the slave-owning class, which made the slave-owners very angry, so naturally, the slave-owners raised their butcher knives against the slaves.

    "But if all the slaves are killed, who will farm and work for the slave owners?"

    Therefore, the slave owners had to use some extraordinary means to find a new batch of slaves for themselves.  The sources of new slaves are mostly civilians and people from other tribes.  However, after all, who is willing to be a slave?  So, of course, bloodshed broke out as an everyday occurrence.

    Of course, this kind of bloody conflict may break out between two tribes, or it may break out between slave owners and civilians of the tribe.

    This turbulent situation has never stopped since the emergence of slave society. The only difference is that today's conflict has intensified.

    Claiming to be a wise king, Emperor Xin has been thinking hard about how to alleviate or even eliminate this kind of class since the day he succeeded to the throne.Turbulent situation.

    Objectively speaking, Emperor Xin was also a versatile man in both civil and military affairs.  Now, once he is determined to do something, it doesn't take long for Di Xin to figure out a seemingly feasible solution, which is restructuring.

    Well, what we are talking about here is restructuring, reform from time to time.

    Specifically, it is to amend the law. The new law stipulates that slave owners are not allowed to kill slaves at will. Violators will be severely punished. If the circumstances are serious, they may even be imprisoned.

    Furthermore, the new law also stipulates the intensity of work with slaves. For example, no more than eight hours (well, not hours) should be worked per day, two days of rest per month, etc.

    ¡°In short, this is a new law designed to protect the right of slaves to survive.

    However, this new law was unanimously opposed by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.  The reason is very simple, because these ministers are all slave owners, and they are big slave owners.

    Mencius once said, "It is not difficult to govern, and one should not offend a wealthy family." ("Mencius Li Lou Shang")

    As for the reason, Mencius also said, "What a wealthy family admires is admired by a country; what a country admires is admired by the whole world."

    The general idea of ??Mencius is that it is not difficult to be a monarch (or an official), as long as you safeguard the interests of the big landlords and the big bourgeoisie (well, including the big slave-owning class).  Because these big landowners and big bourgeoisie represent the direction of public opinion and social fashion.

    It is obvious that Emperor Xin¡¯s move to amend the constitution did not protect the interests of these big slave-owning classes, but instead offended these "rich families"

    So, as soon as Emperor Xin's plan to amend the constitution was proposed, it was unanimously opposed by all the ministers, except for two people, namely Emperor Xin's favorites, Fei Zhong and You Hun.

    The reason why these two brothers did not object was because they were from the lowest social background of slaves.

    In fact, Yi Yin, the most famous minister of Shang Tang, was also born as a slave, but he still achieved great achievements and was famous throughout the ages.

    Although the abilities of Fei Zhong and You Hun are not bad, compared to Yi Yin, they are really very different.

    " Moreover, these two brothers also have another problem, that is, they are greedy for money.

    I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s because they have been afraid of poverty since they were young, or if it¡¯s just their nature. In short, these two people are very obsessed with wealth.

    "In fact, we can't blame these two brothers for being greedy for money. From ancient times to the present, in all dynasties, there have been hundreds of millions of officials, but the number of honest officials is only a handful.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Officials are probably greedy!  Those who are not greedy for money have become rare animals, and will even be regarded as gray mainstream and suffer rejection and suppression.

    Therefore, we can responsibly say that the number of so-called upright officials is definitely smaller than the number of upright courtesans in brothels. Even if we include those who nominally claim to be upright officials, the total number of them may not necessarily be upright.  The number of shepherds is large.

    Back to the main story, it is said that Emperor Xin wanted to establish a new law, but was unanimously opposed by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, including all loyal and treacherous ministers. With no choice, Emperor Xin had to postpone the implementation of the new law.

    With depression in his heart, after Emperor Xin dismissed the dynasty, he summoned the two loyal ministers Fei Zhong and You Hun who supported him to discuss countermeasures.

    The two men murmured and discussed for a long time. Finally, Fei Zhong took the lead and said, "How about we invite all the princes from all over the world and have a meeting to study it? Even if the New Deal still cannot be passed in the end, we can still take this opportunity.  Distinguish which princes are loyal to Your Majesty and which princes have different aspirations."

    Testing the loyalty of princes to themselves?  Well, this, it seems, is still necessary!

    But, it seems that Xibo Hou Jichang doesn¡¯t need to be monitored, right?  Although he is his cheap uncle, his grandfather Taiding (Wen Ding) killed Ji Chang's father Ji Li!  That Jichang family has been around for generations, but there has never been a good person!  We are all born to be rebels!

    Are you taking this opportunity to kill Ji Chang and nip the crisis in the bud?

    With the plan in mind, Emperor Xin's decree was quickly sent to all directions, summoning eight hundred princes from four towns to the capital.

    When summoned by the emperor, the princes from all over the world were confident that they did not dare to neglect. Even Jichang, the Marquis of Xibo, who was bent on rebellion, did not dare to show the slightest disrespect to Emperor Xin under the condition that he was not yet fully prepared. The emperor simply explained everything about Xiqi  After the affairs, he led the crowd to leave Xiqi and went straight to Chaoge.

    When we arrived at Yanshan Mountain, we suddenly encountered heavy rain, thunder and lightning, thunderclaps, mountains and rivers shaking, and mountains collapsing.

    This Xibohou has a good fortune in calculations. Seeing this situation, he learned a lesson. There seemed to be a general in his mind.Born.  So, after the rain stopped, he quickly sent all his men out to look for the star.

    "Brothers, who among you knows what a general star is? Could it be a very long star?" Ji Chang's generals looked at each other in confusion, not knowing why. So, after they had traveled more than a hundred feet away, they looked at each other again.  They gathered together to discuss in a low voice.

    "Could it be a general? He is a military commander among orangutans!" One of the guards who seemed to have a wide range of knowledge whispered.

    "Well, yes! It must be the general! Let's set off now and find the general as soon as possible!" Another guard immediately echoed.

    So, all the generals under Ji Chang scattered out in confusion to look for the generals among the orangutans.

    After searching all over the mountains and plains for a long time, several guards suddenly heard a baby crying.

    Following the sound, they came to an ancient tomb, and several people saw the back of an immortal girl, who seemed to be holding a baby in her arms. She set up a golden light and flew away through the air. In an instant, it turned into a small spot of light, and then  After a while, it completely disappeared into the sky.

    "The fairy has descended to earth!" As ordinary mortals who are working people, the sergeants have never seen such magical means of flying on land, so they quickly knelt on the ground, calling them fairies and worshiping.

    After kowtowing dozens of times, until the fragrance left by the fairy had long since dissipated, the generals got up with a still slightly excited mood and continued to look for the legendary military commander orangutan.

    After searching for a while, they still found nothing. In desperation, the generals had no choice but to return one after another.

    Ji Chang felt sad since he couldn't find the general.  When he heard that a fairy was passing by and seemed to be holding a child, Ji Chang felt a chill in his heart. He quickly took out another copper coin and counted it carefully. The result was indeed hazy and he couldn't calculate anything.

    "Alas! What a great general, but a certain family missed him. It's a pity, it's a pity!" Ji Chang put away the copper coins with a sense of loss, and Ji Chang stood up with the others thoughtfully, and continued to rush towards Chaoge.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT?

    Seeing that this man had the demeanor of a magic stick, Ji Chang hurriedly stepped forward to salute him. After some polite remarks, Ji Chang finally knew that this man was Yun Zhongzi, a Qi Refiner from Yuzhu Cave in Zhongnan Mountain.

    But it turns out that this Yun Zhongzi is the last Guan disciple disciple accepted by Yuanshi Tianzun. He came down the mountain this time because he was ordered by his master to go down the mountain to look for the general star.

    After talking with Ji Chang about mysteries and Dharma for a while, both of them felt that the other party seemed to be very knowledgeable.

    Yun Zhongzi, on the other hand, had profound Taoism, while Ji Chang, on the other hand, was Yi Li Xuan Miao. They chatted with each other for a long time, but neither of them made the other faint with their talk. As a result, they developed a feeling of meeting a close friend after drinking and hating the late meeting.  meaning.

    ?????????????????????????????? However, the two of them were not thinking about talking about the big mountain now, so they ended the discussion hastily, and they admired each other for a few words before turning to the main topic.

    "Just now, after the rain and thunder, the general star appeared. Pindao traveled thousands of miles to look for the general star. I wonder if the wise prince can introduce the general star to Pindao?" Yun Zhongzi Shengun took the lead and turned to the topic.

    "Uh, I still want to ask you, why don't you ask me first?" Ji Chang felt entangled in his heart for a while and muttered to himself.

    However, Ji Chang did not want to neglect this seemingly mysterious magic stick. He quickly told the words that his subordinates saw the fairy just now and repeated them to Yun Zhongzi.

    "A fairy appeared? And he took away the baby who was probably Jiang Xing and seemed to have a master-disciple relationship with him?" Yun Zhongzi was shocked when he heard this, and he quickly counted with his fingers for a long time.  The result was indeed chaos and nothing was calculated.

    In desperation, Yun Zhongzi was also smart, so he listed the possible situations one by one, trying to select possible suspects through screening.

    There are a total of fifteen old men in the Chan sect of my sect, Yuanshi Tianzun, but no woman can say that!  Among the master's uncle's disciples, there is only one bachelor, Xuandu Archmage, and no women.

    Third Master Uncle¡¯s disciples, uh, well, I don¡¯t know who his disciples are!

    "However, I heard from several senior brothers that there is a little lolita wearing a red vest who seems to be a disciple of the third uncle, but she doesn't seem to be compatible with the so-called fairy Ji Chang talks about!

    ??Could it be that he is a disciple of the Western religion?  Or, is it the disciple of the mysterious Nuwa Empress?

    After thinking about it for a long time, Yun Zhongzi didn¡¯t figure it out, so he said goodbye to Xibo Hou Jichang in a confused way, and went to Yuxu Palace in Kongtong Mountain to find his teacher Yuanshi Tianzun to ask for countermeasures.

    After Yun Zhongzi¡¯s magic stick left, Xibo Hou Jichang also immediately led everyone to get up and continue on their way.

    "Didn't find the general star?" In the Yuxu Palace of Kongtong Mountain,After hearing Yun Zhongzi's report, the first pseudo-mother was also surprised in her heart.

    This is the result that I just calculated with a lot of effort, and then I immediately ordered Yun Zhongzi to rush over.  Unexpectedly, it was a step too late!

    So, doesn¡¯t that mean that the backstage of the person who took away the star is more powerful than himself?

    After going through the few known Hunyuan saints in his heart, Yuanshi Tianzun had no clue.

    Although he has perfected the Sunflower Forgetting Record, Yuanshi Tianzun is confident that his magic power is no less than that of his elder brother Taishang.  However, compared to the cheap third brother Tongtian Cult Leader, Yuanshi Tianzun still felt unsure.

    "Moreover, there are two bald heads in the Western Sect. If they join forces, they may be able to see the secrets of the world earlier than themselves.

    As for the legendary Human Virgin Mother Nuwa, it seems that Yuanshi Tianzun basically doesn¡¯t know how powerful the opponent is and how strong her magic power is.  The only thing that can be known is that the Nuwa Empress should be a Hunyuan saint who does not belong to Hongjun's old earthworm system.

    "Damn Fengshen, how come the secret of heaven is so obscure! It seems that we have to discuss it with senior brother! Otherwise, we will always be passive, but we will suffer a loss!"

    Having made up his mind, Yuanshi Tianzun waved his hand and scolded Yun Zhongzi away, stepped out of Kongtong Mountain, and went straight to the Eight Views Palace of Shilong Mountain.

    Putting aside how the fake mother-in-law of the Yuan Dynasty and the old man of the Taishang conspired to become a god, let¡¯s just talk about the Xibohou Jichang. After leaving Yanshan, he spent the night at dawn and was speechless on the road. With an uneasy mood, he finally arrived at Chaoge that day.  city.

    After the eight hundred princes from the four towns gathered to sing the song, Emperor Xin immediately held a court meeting and threw out the bill he had formulated to protect the human rights of slaves.

    Unexpectedly, a group of courtiers led by Prime Minister Shang Rong and King Wucheng Huang Feihu of the Zhenguo, and a group of royal family members represented by the Emperor's Grand Master Jizi, the Emperor's Young Master Bigan, Wei Ziqi, and Wei Ziyan,  Having already colluded with the princes from all directions, they once again unanimously opposed Emperor Xin's Bill of Rights.

    As for Di Xin, only Fei Zhong and You Hun were still trying to maintain the situation, so that Di Xin would not fall into the dilemma of fighting alone.

    It was like buying vegetables at the wet market, noisy and arguing, and the dispute lasted for more than a month.

    But after all, Fei Zhong and You Hun were not masters of rhetoric. They were verbally criticized by courtiers for more than a month, quoting scriptures, criticizing Sang and Huai. Seeing that they almost turned Emperor Xin into a tyrant comparable to Xia Jie, Emperor Xin finally supported  Unable to hold on, he came back completely defeated again.

    Although he was so angry that he wanted to kill all the civil and military officials in the dynasty, Di Xin also knew that public anger was hard to offend.  Moreover, governing the country still relies on these ministers. If these people unanimously oppose it, even if they enforce it, the final result will be counterproductive, causing a lot of trouble, and maybe even destroying the country and the family.

    Therefore, Di Xin had to suppress his anger and temporarily gave up the implementation of the Bill of Rights, which was designed to protect the basic survival rights of the most basic slaves.

    "What a bully! I, um, I must chop all of you bastard traitors into pieces and feed them to the dogs! Especially that Xibo Hou Jichang!" Di Xin thought inexplicably with grief and anger.

    "Uh, Xibohou Jichang! This time, are you looking for an excuse to kill Jichang first?"
