What is It Like To Be Summoned As a Giant?

In the winter of the ninth year of King Zhou, the king suddenly vomited blood while having a banquet at the Star-Zhaing Platform, and then fell into a semi-coma state, lingering on the bed.

The imperial doctor was helpless, and no one among the experts or strangers in the court could cure him. The officials were shocked.

The prince Yinhong Yinjiao was young, and King Zhou was seriously ill, so Empress Jiang hung up the curtain and supervised the country with Grand Master Wen Bi Gan and other important ministers.

When King Zhou fell ill, Demon Fox Daji stayed by his side day and night, showing a deep affection for her. Even the ministers who originally criticized Demon Fox Daji had to praise her.

Although King Zhou was ill, the emperor always governed the country in a down-to-earth manner, so there was not much turmoil. But as the days gradually stabilized, many rumors spread from the palace.

It is said that King Zhou's serious illness was not due to excessive drinking. At that time, King Zhou was playing with a few concubines, and suddenly he vomited blood and fell into a coma. It must be the problem of these women. And these women are tributes from the Lihuo Taoist who has made great contributions to the country.

Not only that, even the Star-Zhaing Tower was built by Taoist Lihuo. All the enjoyment in the Star-Zhaiming Tower was naturally arranged by Taoist Lihuo.

It can be seen that there seems to be a great connection between Taoist Lihuo and King Zhou's serious illness.

There were a lot of rumors about the harem, but with Empress Jiang in charge, there would be no trouble.

As winter turned to spring, King Zhou's condition did not improve. All the miraculous medicines had been exhausted, and there was still a feeling of exhaustion.

Master Wen even went to Biyou Palace to seek advice from the saint, but Our Lady of Jinling said that the leader of Tongtian had been in seclusion for many years and had stopped preaching, so Master Wen had no choice but to give up.

During the spring equinox, Queen Jiang dreamed of a snake holding beads in its mouth, which lasted for several days. After living in the shape of a snake for several days, he left a sentence in his dream: "If you want to save the emperor, come to Nuwa Temple to see her. All ministers will come together and kneel down for ten days to eliminate disasters."

Sage Nuwa asked in a dream that she was willing to save King Zhou. This was great news.

Empress Jiang went to court that night and summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter of kneeling down at Nuwa Temple. In this era, the theory of dreams entrusted by gods and men is extremely effective. If you miss it, you may be in serious trouble for King Zhou.

In just ten days, the court is empty and prone to problems.

After repeated discussions, we could not find a way to get the best of both worlds. At this time, Prince Yin Jiao volunteered to serve as the prince and imprison the country for ten days, waiting for the return of the ministers and Queen Jiang.

Yin Jiao was only sixteen years old, and he could be regarded as a capable man in both civil and military affairs. He was much more outstanding than King Zhou when he was young. Since he was a prince, he seemed to be in charge of the country.

Moreover, in the past two years, the country and the people have indeed been peaceful. Wen Taishi and other important ministers felt that it would not be a big problem to leave for ten days if everything in the court was properly arranged.

Therefore, Queen Jiang led all civil and military officials to kneel down at the Nuwa Temple.

As soon as they entered the Nuwa Temple, the statue of Nuwa shone brightly, and the saint appeared and said clearly: "Kneel down and worship for ten days, and do not leave for a moment. If the merits are complete, the emperor will recover. If the heart is not good, disaster will come in an instant. , remember, remember.”

After hearing what the saint said personally, Queen Jiang felt relieved and quickly arranged for all the ministers to kneel down and worship. Although Empress Nuwa said she would kneel and worship for ten days, she did not mean to kneel and be immobile and wait for ten days. As long as she did not leave the confines of the Nuwa Temple, she was sincere.

Everyone was worried about King Zhou's safety, but no one dared to show any slightest care.

As for Chao Ge, Yin Jiao Supervisor also did a decent job. After all, he was also a very outstanding heir. But after three days, Yin Jiao felt a little less interested.

After taking power for the first time, Yin Jiao was also looking forward to doing something great. However, the imperial court was really well taken care of by a group of veteran ministers, leaving him no need to exert his abilities. Handling government affairs every day according to the regulations left by Master Wen and others is like a puppet. Yin Jiao feels that a pig could do a good job sitting here.

"No wonder my father never goes to court." Yin Jiao couldn't help but sigh.

However, as soon as he thought of King Zhou, Yin Jiao couldn't help but frown. It is not a good reputation for a king to be seriously ill in bed because of playing with women.

Thinking of this, Yin Jiao felt a little inexplicably irritable. After retreating from the court, he walked to King Zhou's palace, wanting to visit his father.

The demon fox Daji was still serving King Zhou with no clothes on. Yin Jiao did not have a good impression of this woman at first, but he gradually changed his mind.

"Concubine Su, my father still hasn't gotten better?" Yin Jiao asked.

Demon Fox Daji wiped away her tears, lowered her head and replied: "I haven't seen any improvement. Maybe it will take effect until the Queen and the ministers come back. The saint's intervention will definitely cure your Majesty's illness and the court will be stable."

Hearing what Demon Fox Daji said, Yin Jiao felt a little uncomfortable. Although he had been a puppet these days, it felt really good to sit on the throne of the emperor and command the world. He had never known this feeling before. So intoxicating.

There was even a glimmer of hope in Yin Jiao's heart that if King Zhou died like this, he could truly take that position.

Demon Fox Daji glanced at Yin Jiao quietly, and felt a little proud when she saw the difference in his expression. Normally, Yin Jiao would never have such treasonous thoughts. But in the past few months, Demon Fox Daji has not been idle.

In addition to poisoning King Zhou, he also sneaked into Yin Jiao's dreams late at night to cast spells, which subtly affected his character. Although Yin Jiao is a young hero, he also has a young heart. Now that he feels so good about being in power, evil thoughts arise involuntarily.

But this is not enough. King Zhou is really dead, and Yin Jiao takes the throne directly. He is probably even more wise and powerful than King Zhou. Then the Shang Dynasty will really live for another hundred years.

This was only the first step of Demon Fox Daji's plan, but after Empress Jiang led the ministers to Nuwa Temple, there was no longer any obstacle to Daji's plan.

I saw the fox demon Daji quietly blowing a breath towards Yin Jiao, and the soundless evil spirit penetrated into Yin Jiao's nostrils, immediately making him uneasy and full of distracting thoughts.

Then, Demon Fox Daji said: "When Your Majesty wakes up, please advise Your Majesty that you can't go to the Star-Zhaing Tower anymore."

When Yin Jiao heard this, he frowned and said, "Is the Star-Zhaing Tower built by Lihuo Taoist really the culprit of my father's death?"

Although this kind of gossip was suppressed by Empress Jiang, Yin Jiao was not completely unaware of it.

"Your Highness, Taoist Lihuo has great supernatural powers, and he built the Lutai Palace and the Star-Zhaing Tower in an instant. It was originally said to be for the Northern Expedition to pray for blessings, but there are countless rare things in the Star-Zhaing Tower. It is clearly to confuse people. It was built for the king. If he were a loyal minister, why would he build such a luxurious thing for your majesty to indulge in?" said Demon Fox Daji.

Yin Jiao nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and said angrily: "Taoist Lihuo has evil intentions, so he must not be leniently spared."

After saying this, Yin Jiao left angrily.

Looking at Yin Jiao's back, the demon fox Daji sneered, then turned into a line of blue smoke and floated to another part of the palace, which was the second prince Yin Hong's bedroom.
