April 1st, April Fool's Day.

These were the days when Zi Shou was on Daji's lap, counting the days of inadequacy, unable to control himself.

It was the day when Ji Chang returned to Xiqi, where civil and military officials bowed to him, and the people lined the streets to welcome him.

It is also the death anniversary of Ji Chang.

The slogan was shouted loudly, and King Zhou was attacked when he returned to Xiqi. Therefore, it only took Ji Chang half a day from returning home to being buried.

It always rains on days of great mourning, and even if it doesn't rain, Jiang Ziya will make rain by making it.

Xiqi's civil and military personnel and elite soldiers, all of whom were in white and plain clothes, were waiting in the rain on the outskirts of the city.

It's drizzling, and the rain is hitting your face. In this way, even if you can't cry, you won't be exposed, so the atmosphere looks particularly sad.

"The whole Xiqi is crying!"

Jiang Ziya sighed, looked up at the pouring rain, wiped his old face, and wiped away the water.

As for rain or tears?

He and Ji Changcai had not known each other for long, and they were not close friends, nor had they received any favors. He had not even pulled the cart for a few steps, so he would definitely not be able to cry.

Ji Fa galloped his horse and ordered loudly:

"Today, my father has passed away. The elite soldiers of the three armies and a group of civil and military personnel should be sent to Qishan to bury him. This is your honor!"

In fact, Jichang was a very good monarch. If slaves were not counted as common people, he treated the people very well. He was one of the few princes in the world who loved his people like his sons.

It is a pity that he was unwilling to build the Great Wall and allowed the Qiang people to plunder the people of Xiqi for no reason, which became a stain that will never be washed away in his life.

But today, Ji Chang died of illness, and some people in Xiqi recalled his kindness and spontaneously came to see him off.

The person has passed away. Ji Chang did not do well in some areas, but he did indeed do practical things for the people. His merits and demerits will be determined by himself.

The size and number of the troops that accompanied Ji Chang's funeral could be said to be the strength of Xiqi, a rare act of generosity.

Palaces can be saved, expenses can be saved, but funerals cannot be saved.

Amidst the crowds of people, Jiang Ziya began to think.

"Ji Dan seems to have sent someone to escort him on Ji Fa's order, but Lei Zhenzi has been in the mountains for a long time and has no understanding of the world. He has no reason to lie. He heard someone in the forest claiming to be a subordinate of King Zhou, so it must be true."

"Those soldiers must have come to assassinate Ji Chang in the name of King Zhou. They didn't do it just because Lei Zhenzi scared them. I'm afraid that Ji Dan really has the intention of killing his father..."

Jiang Ziya had the same idea as Ji Chang during his lifetime. They both believed that Ji Dan sent soldiers to commit patricide. This does not mean that they are hopelessly stupid, but that all impossibilities have been eliminated, leaving only this possibility.

Just think about it, what normal king would do something to deceive himself at such a critical moment?

Ever since, Jiang Ziya informed Ji Fa of his thoughts immediately.

Ji Fa believed in Jiang Ziya. After all, they had been in contact a few years ago. Jiang Ziya also gave him a ring to entrust his soul. He also relied on this ring to know how to call the emperor and how to dispatch Wei.

Hu, Nezha and others created Xiqi who can compete with the great merchants today.

But this kind of thing just seemed ridiculous to him.

However, it was of no use. After the initial disbelief, Ji Fa believed 50%.

My father's death was too strange. Although he was old and frail, why did he die on the day he returned to Xiqi?

How can there be time in this world to pinch such a good poison?

It would make sense to say that Ji Chang was aware of what Ji Dan had done and became furious.

Moreover, Ji Fa remembered very clearly that after Ji Dan received the news that his father had been released, he did not immediately send someone to greet him. Instead, he reported it to himself, hoping to make some articles on the matter.

Ji Fa also had to admit that his old father's death saved a lot of trouble and even benefited the great cause of defeating Zhou.

But even though he had some concerns in his mind, Ji Fa still didn't want to believe that his younger brother had done such a thing, and said to Jiang Ziya: "Fourth brother is also doing this for the great cause of defeating Zhou. My father-in-law is worrying too much."

Jiang Ziya frowned: "Otherwise, there might be something fishy in this. Why did the eldest brother of His Highness turn Ji into Jiang and join the Xiqiang family?"

"this"

Ji Fa recalled it carefully. This incident was an eternal pain for everyone in Xiqi. The Xiqiang went south, the people suffered, and the prince turned into a ginger. All this is a black history that cannot be erased, and no one even wants to mention it.

It was not until Xiqi regrouped, with Wei Hu and Nezha as the vanguard, that he killed the Qiang king Jiang Midang and avenged his previous humiliation.

After that, Boyikao became the new Qiang king and had always had a vague connection with Xiqibao. It can be said that the two families were almost one family, which made things easier.

Ji Fa frowned and said: "The Qiang people specially set up a troop to find my brother. My brother has no choice but to join the Qiang."

At that time, he received a message from Boyi Kaotuo Chongheihu. Boyi was admitted to Qiang in order to conquer Zhou. If the Xiqiang force could be conquered, Xiqi would be more confident in conquering Zhou. But now,

Boyikao did it.

Jiang Ziya added: "Then how did Madam Junhou and Mrs. Tai escape from danger?"

Ji Fa blurted out: "Of course it was General Nangong who led the army to the rescue."

But as soon as he got to the general level, he kept silent.

He remembered one thing. After Nangong Shi came back, he once said that after meeting Tai Si and Tai Sheng, he wanted to lead troops to rescue Boyikao, but was stopped by Ji Dan who was accompanying the army.

It seemed to be a very rational decision at the time, but coupled with today's events, how rational and selfish was Ji Dan at that time?

Jiang Ziya said: "Sure enough, the monarch passed away without leaving any last words or choosing a successor. Your Highness's position is not right."

Ji Fa gritted his teeth. He had to say that he was really not in the right position. The position of the Lord of Xiqi, King Wu of Zhou, and Emperor of Zhou was not stable.

The eldest brother Boyikao did not die. Although he turned Ji into Jiang, he is now the Qiang king and can change back at any time.

If you don't consider Boyikao, Ji Fa is not the most powerful heir. He relies on the titles of King Wen and King Wu to say that he is the most suitable heir because he is the only one with the title of king?

This royal title was given by King Zhou!

Moreover, after Ji Chang was imprisoned and Boyi was admitted to Qiang, although Ji Fa had always been the superficial person in charge of Xiqi, Ji Dan was also popular.

It is under the control of Ji Dan.

In fact, only the eldest son, the second son and the third son have the possibility of inheritance. Going further back does not conform to the concept of this era.

But the problem is that the third child, Ji Xian, died a long time ago because he was on a mission to earth.

Although Ji Fa still calls Ji Dan his fourth brother, in name, Ji Dan has become the third eldest brother, and there is a possibility of competing for the position.

In the past, because Ji Chang was still alive, Ji Fa had never considered this. As long as Ji Chang named his successor, all problems would be solved. But now that Ji Chang has passed away, while solving a lot of problems of defeating Zhou, it has also brought internal problems to Xiqi.

trouble.

Ji Fa knew that his health had been poor. Although the immortal said that he still had more than twenty years to live, he wanted to defeat Zhou, and even conquered it himself. With his mental and haggard body, it was not impossible to lose some weight.

By then, wouldn’t Ji Dan

Thinking of this, Ji Fa looked embarrassed and had to be cautious.

While I was thinking about it, Qishan arrived.
