Upon hearing Daji say this...
Chong Houhu dared not ask any more questions, and immediately slapped himself several times, flatteringly saying.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"It was my fault for being so talkative."
"With the Empress in power, the Western Zhou Dynasty is nothing but a clay chicken and a tile dog, utterly insignificant..."
Chong Houhu is not stupid.
Although Daji did not bring a single soldier with her.
But who was Daji?
That was the noble imperial concubine of the Shang Dynasty!
As long as Daji is in Pei City.
The Shang Dynasty would absolutely not stand idly by and watch Pei City fall!
As for what methods the Shang dynasty plans to use to defend Pei City...
This is beyond Chong Houhu's comprehension...
Chong Houhu had no idea.
This time, Daji was the only one who came to Peicheng.
in other words.
In Lingyun's view.
With Daji's abilities, she was more than capable of defending Pei City!
......
The next day.
The expected attack did not occur.
This relieved Chong Houhu, but at the same time, it made him feel inexplicably uneasy.
He had a constant feeling that something bad was about to happen...
While pondering.
Chong Houhu picked up his teacup and drank some tea.
But I don't know why.
One of the tea leaves leaped out and went straight into Chong Houhu's trachea.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
Chong Houhu immediately couldn't help but cough loudly, his face turning red.
After finally recovering.
Chong Houhu's bad premonition grew stronger.
It just so happened at that moment.
A bodyguard rushed in from outside.
"Um?"
Chong Houhu's heart skipped a beat, and he looked tense.
But when he heard the report from his guards, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It turns out they were just there to report that Daji had climbed the city wall.
"Go down!"
"Let Lady Daji do whatever she wants."
There's no need to be so nervous.
Wait until the soldier goes down.
Chong Houhu calmed himself down, carefully picked up the teacup, and prepared to drink tea again.
But at that very moment...
"boom!"
A loud roar rang out.
A thick plume of smoke, accompanied by flames, shot into the sky from the east of the city.
A strange aroma of roasted grains spread throughout the city...
"This is?"
Chong Houhu's expression changed drastically.
soon.
Then a guard rushed over.
"My lord!"
"Something terrible has happened!"
"A fire has broken out in the granary in the east of the city. We are mobilizing manpower to put it out."
It appeared as expected!
Chong Houhu's heart sank, and he said in a muffled voice.
"Do not lose your composure."
"Keep a close eye on any unusual activity, especially the Western Zhou army outside the city."
The guard responded enthusiastically and immediately went to make the arrangements.
Chong Houhu had lost all interest in drinking tea. Gazing into the distance, his ominous premonition grew stronger.
And not long after that.
"Report!"
Another guard came to report.
"My lord, while we were putting out the fire, a building collapsed, and fifty soldiers were injured."
And this is just the beginning...
"Report! The horses in the stables have been startled, and hundreds of them are galloping through the city!"
"Report! The central section of the western city wall has collapsed due to years of disrepair!"
"Report, north of the city..."
"......"
The reports came one after another, like death warrants, making Chong Houhu's face turn extremely ugly.
Chong Houhu was no ordinary man.
After this series of "unlucky" things happened.
Chong Houhu had already discovered some clues.
"Shen Gongbao!"
"Could this be your secret technique of manipulating energy?"
"This isn't some kind of fortune-telling, it's clearly a curse to bring bad luck!"
Chong Houhu muttered to himself, then his expression suddenly changed, and he swung his hips and ran towards the gate of the mansion.
Ever since Lingyun ushered in the era of the Hundred Schools of Thought.
A new rumor has emerged among the people...
To suppress a doctrine, another doctrine must be used.
Now, Shen Gongbao has turned Pei City into a mess by using his learning methods.
To stop all this, we must rely on another theory.
In Peicheng today, there happens to be a founder of a school of thought...
That was Daji!
Chong Houhu is going to find Daji.
otherwise.
Peicheng is in grave danger!
......
Chong Houhu quickly arrived at the city wall and saw the fiery red figure standing on the city tower.
"Your Majesty!"
"Please save me! Please save Peicheng!"
"Waaaaah..."
Chong Houhu immediately called out repeatedly, his face filled with grief, and he was almost about to burst into tears.
Daji: "......"
Daji glanced at Chonghouhu with some disgust and said indifferently.
"I know what you want."
"Since His Majesty has sent me here to assist you, I will naturally not stand idly by."
He paused for a moment.
Daji's gaze fell upon the tall military tent in the center of the Western Zhou army, a hint of eagerness appearing in her eyes.
When in the Land of Return to Ruins.
Daji and Shen Gongbao, both mid-level demon gods, had fought each other more than once.
Daji never thought of that.
She and Shen Gongbao will clash again in this primordial world in this way.
"Now you are the head of the Academy of Learning and also the State Preceptor of the Western Zhou Dynasty."
"And I am the head of the law school, the imperial concubine of the Shang Dynasty."
"Interesting, very interesting..."
"whee..."
Daji lowered her eyes and smiled gently; what a beautiful scene!
Chong Houhu was so captivated by the sight that he stood there dumbfounded.
