"This is a secret letter from Su Daji to Mr. Long. As for what it is about, I can't explain it clearly. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave." Li Jing left quickly after he finished speaking. Long Junhai did not try to keep him. After all, he knew that the other party had done his best to deliver the message. If he asked the other party to do something else, he would implicate the other party, which would be a bit unjust.
After Li Jing left, Long Junhai opened the seal on the secret letter. Although it was a simple formation, it was extremely detailed. Only when Long Junhai peeked into the formation would the secret letter inside the formation not disappear. If other people forcibly peeked into the contents of the secret letter, it would be instantly damaged and disappear. The fact that Su Daji could use an ordinary small formation so skillfully was enough to show that her attainments in formations were already very high.
"Master, what is contained in the secret letter?" Jiang Ziya asked curiously.
Long Junhai smiled, handed the secret letter to Jiang Ziya, and said, "Look at it yourself. This matter is indeed a bit surprising, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense."
Jiang Ziya took a look at the contents of the secret letter. It turned out that it was about the queen's secret plan to let Huang Feihu rebel, overthrow King Zhou's tyranny, and let her son ascend the throne.
"Isn't the queen too impatient? The prince is young and they are family. If he rebels now, wouldn't it be like a flood washing away the Dragon King Temple?" Jiang Ziya was a little confused, because the prince would ascend the throne sooner or later. Even if the prince is only in his teens and not yet an adult, when King Zhou abdicates, the prince will naturally become the emperor, right?
"Human hearts are the most difficult to understand. Although they are a family, think about it. King Zhou is now in his prime. It will probably take tens of thousands of years for him to abdicate. By then, whether King Zhou is willing to enter the realm of gods is another matter. Who has so much patience to wait for such a long time?" Long Junhai asked with a smile.
Jiang Ziya nodded. King Zhou's talent was a rare genius that could only be seen once in a thousand years. At such a young age, he had cultivated to the late stage of earthly immortal. The emperors of previous generations usually died at the level of mortal immortal or even below mortal immortal.
The lifespans of people in the immortal world are basically eternal. Few of them die of natural causes. Most of them die unexpectedly during their lives, or they choose to ascend to the divine world after getting tired of the immortal world.
Except for the cases where they passed away, most emperors of the Shang Empire chose to ascend to the divine realm within ten thousand years. This was because after ten thousand years, the princes and grandchildren below might reach a higher realm, and it would be tragic to see fathers and sons turn against each other.
Therefore, they usually choose to ascend within ten thousand years, unless there is a lack of the next generation within these ten thousand years. After all, the fertility rate of the pure bloodline of immortals is very low. Generally, a next generation will be born only after a thousand years or so. If they are lucky, a child may be born every few hundred years or even decades. This situation is relatively rare.
King Zhou currently had only two children, Crown Prince Yin Hong and Second Prince Yin Jiao. There was only a five-year age difference between them, which was a miracle in the hundreds of thousands of years of the Shang Dynasty.
Many people thought that King Zhou's generation of kings could make the Shang Empire even more powerful, but in reality, the opposite happened. King Zhou was cowardly and tyrannical, and plunged the entire Shang Empire into an unprecedented predicament.
"Master, what does Miss Daji mean by this news?" Jiang Ziya read the secret letter carefully several times. From beginning to end, Su Daji only talked about the Queen's conspiracy to rebel, but did not mention what specific things she wanted Long Junhai to do, or what kind of cooperation she wanted to have.
Long Junhai smiled and said, "Su Daji is very shrewd. She knows that the Queen is going to strike first. Now is a good time to win them over. After all, they are plotting secretly and it is impossible for them to rebel openly. So this is a good opportunity for us. It seems that we can go and meet Huang Feihu."
"Now?" Jiang Ziya asked again.
"Of course, you need to prepare yourself. We also need to ask Li Jing to come forward and help introduce them. Otherwise, if we go there too abruptly, it will make the other party suspicious." Long Junhai said with a smile.
Jiang Ziya frowned upon hearing this, and then said, "Master, if that's the case, won't our current identities make the other party even more vigilant?"
"No, it's precisely because we are openly rebels that Huang Feihu doesn't suspect us," Long Junhai explained.
Jiang Ziya thought about it and still felt that it was not appropriate. After all, going to look for Huang Feihu at this time would alert the enemy. If King Zhou's men found him, Huang Feihu would be in great danger. They would definitely not agree to cooperate with them, and might even capture them and hand them over to King Zhou as a token of loyalty!
Long Junhai smiled and said, "It's not that simple. Human hearts are very complicated. You have to know that no matter how cunning Huang Feihu is, as long as he is determined to rebel, he will definitely look for partners. After all, his strength alone is not enough to fight against King Zhou."
"Will he definitely choose to cooperate with us? He can also choose the armies of the princes?" Jiang Ziya asked puzzledly.
"You have overlooked a very important issue. Which of the princes' armies has set up camp outside the city of Chaoge? We are now in a position to get the upper hand, and if the two of us go to meet Huang Feihu, he will believe in our strength and courage. Don't worry, we will be fine. Even if Huang Feihu really plays a trick, I can still take you away safely." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"Master, you are very capable, as I know. You were able to rescue your uncle from the heartland of the Chan Sect and escape unscathed, so how could you take a small general's mansion seriously? But what if this matter was a trap set by Su Daji from the beginning to the end? After all, Su Daji is the daughter of Su Hu, and she has the power of a local prince behind her. It is difficult to judge whether the other party is deliberately sowing discord?" Jiang Ziya expressed his concerns again.
"It is indeed possible that Su Daji would set a trap for us, but this woman has many things she wants to plot. Even if it's her father, she wouldn't take it to heart. She is unwilling to be her father's pawn. So, although I don't know whether the other party will cooperate with us in the future, she has no choice at the moment." Long Junhai was not afraid at all that Su Daji would turn against him and harm him.
"If that's true, I'll be relieved. Let's go see Li Jing now. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let him go. I would have let him stay and write a letter." Jiang Ziya said with a smile.
"Haha, the other party won't stay here forever. He will feel at ease if you let him go home first. We will prepare some gifts and go to visit him later. It will also be a good idea to conceal our tracks. Otherwise, Li Jing may not dare to recognize you as a friend in the future." Long Junhai said with a smile.
