"How could this happen? It shouldn't be like this!"
"I am well-versed in the laws of the Shang Dynasty; the normal procedure is not like this at all!"
"How could the Holy Ancestor be so arbitrary? How could he break the rules so blatantly? Without trial, he directly convicted me and wanted my life?"
"Three days! Do I only have three days left?"
"No! This shouldn't be! I am clearly the chosen one, destined to lead Xiqi to overthrow the Shang Dynasty!"
"I absolutely cannot die like this, in such a muddled way!"
At this moment, even Ji Chang, who was always shrewd and confident, couldn't help but lose his composure.
He stood there blankly for a while, silently shouting in his heart:
"No! There's always a chance for things to turn around before the very end!"
"The will of Heaven is with this Marquis, and even the Holy Ancestor will be defeated before the will of Heaven!"
"At most three days, things will turn around! Heaven will surely save me!"
Ji Chang kept brainwashing himself in his mind.
......
at the same time.
Xiqi.
When the news reached Xiqi that Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo, would be executed by slow slicing in three days, it was discovered that...
The entire Xiqi region was shaken violently.
The Marquis's Residence.
Bo Yikao, Ji Fa, San Yisheng, and other high-ranking officials of Xiqi gathered together once again.
Bo Yikao, the heir to Xiqi, looked at everyone with a solemn expression:
"Gentlemen, the Holy Ancestor has decreed that my father must be executed in three days! Do you have any strategies to save him?"
Faced with Boyi Kao's question, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
At that moment, the Great Shang Ancestor Yin Zicheng personally ordered that Ji Chang be executed in three days.
In the Great Shang Dynasty, Yin Zicheng's words were golden rules, unchangeable.
Even if they had extraordinary abilities and could persuade the powerful merchant Emperor Xin, it would be of no use!
In the Shang Dynasty, no one was more powerful than Yin Zicheng.
He wanted Ji Chang dead, and no one could stop him!
As for persuading Yin Zicheng to change his mind...
They were all very clear about the temperament of this great merchant ancestor, and understood that it was basically impossible for him to do so.
If I go, I'll probably just end up losing my life for nothing!
......
For a moment, a gloomy atmosphere filled the room.
The Xiqi leaders were at a loss for what to do.
Moreover, they were filled with worry.
After all, Ji Chang is about to be executed for treason.
Since the Holy Ancestor knew that Ji Chang wanted to overthrow the Shang Dynasty, surely he must have known about those who were involved in it, right?
Perhaps, they too will die soon!
Nobody wants to die!
Those of them who hold high positions of power and can indulge in pleasure are even less willing to die!
In the silence, the second son, Ji Fa, spoke:
"Gentlemen, please hear me out!"
"Now that my father has been arrested, it means that our plans to start a rebellion have been exposed. We must be prepared to go to war at any time, and we must not be captured by the Shang Dynasty as easily as my father was!"
"However, with our strength alone, Xiqi is no match for the Shang Dynasty. We must seek external assistance!"
At this point, Ji Fa looked at Boyi Kao:
"Brother, didn't the immortals of the Chan Sect leave us a token?"
"Now is the time to use the token and ask the immortals of the Chan Sect for our help!"
"The Chan Sect is a sect of saints. If they intervene, not only will we be safe and sound, but Father's life will also be saved!"
"After all, destiny belongs to Xiqi!"
Upon hearing Ji Fa's words, everyone's eyes lit up.
"Yes, please ask the immortals of the Chan Sect for help! As long as they are willing to lend a hand, we will definitely be able to overcome this crisis!"
Bo Yikao nodded in agreement.
Immediately, he quickly retrieved the Chan Sect's token, activated it, contacted the Chan Sect, informed them of the predicament Xiqi was facing, and requested their help!
