I Want to Tease the Fox
Since the beginning of chaos, a pearl was born in the heavens and earth. Pointed by Nuwa, it transformed into the Lingzhu Zi, later Nezha.
"Lingzhu Zi, remember, after descending to the mortal realm, cause chaos in Shang Dynasty and then assist the people of Western Zhou in the creation f Gods!"
"Yes, your Highness..."
Nuwa waved her hand: "Go!"
The spirit pearl, Lingzhu Zi, nodded, transforming into a stream of light heading towards the mortal world. Meanwhile, Di Xin remained oblivious, manipulated by the most powerful woman in the primordial chaos.
Morning court was undergoing.
"Your Majesty, I've heard that Su Hu in Ji Province has a daughter, comparable to a celestial being, named Su Daji. Why not take her into the palace..."
Fei Zhong noticed that Di Xin seemed distracted.
Di Xin looked satisfied after glancing at Fei Zhong. Although he had limited political achievements, his ability to observe and understand was unmatched...
In reality, Di Xin had no special thoughts about Daji; his only interest was in that little fox.
"What does teasing a fox feel like..."
"Your Majesty, what are you saying?"
Di Xin shook his head: "Nothing, your words are indeed reasonable. We'll set off for Ji Province immediately!"
It was worth noting that under Su Hu's command in Ji Province, there was a person named Zheng Lun, rumored to have learned immortal arts from a deity. This person must be brought to the court in order to lay the foundation for the future widespread cultivation of immortality!
And there was Kong Xuan, the one with the five-colored divine light, who should not be overlooked...
By then, Di Xin planned to recruit a few individuals from the Dragon Clan to establish a team of instructors.
Thinking about this, a smile appeared on Di Xin's lips. However, in the eyes of the courtiers, this smile seemed lecherous!
"Your Majesty, please think twice! The Shang Dynasty has just finished dealing with the floods. This is not the right time for Your Majesty to personally bring beauties into the palace..."
Di Xin dismissed Bi Gan's indignant remarks. These people were absolutely loyal, but also incredibly annoying!
"This is settled. Dismiss now!"
As Di Xin finished speaking, the system's voice rang out.
"Triggered task: Persuade Zheng Lun."
"Reward: Seven hundred years of cultivation!"
“Consequences of failure: Shang Dynasty's luck decreases!"
Di Xin sighed deeply; it seemed this matter was urgent. If Shang Dynasty still had a hundred years of luck, he wouldn't be worried, but now there were only over twenty years left!
"Oh, foolish ruler. With such an emperor, how can my Shang Dynasty prosper?"
"Recalling the previous emperors of Shang Dynasty, every one of them governed diligently and cared for the people, truly..."
On the hall, the courtiers discussed fervently, but Di Xin had already tuned them out. He was on his way to Ji Province.
"Huang Feihu, why are you back?"
Di Xin's entourage coincidentally met Huang Feihu returning to the court.
"Your Majesty, I just came back to report. Li Jing indeed has a third child, but the child is still in his wife's womb!"
"Oh, that's good."
It seemed there was still time. If that little one had already been born and had killed the boy of the Stone Grit Consort, things would be more troublesome!
"To Ji Province!"
There were numerous cultivators in Shang Dynasty, with the most famous Grand Minister Wen Zhong. All of these individuals were to be recalled and used to establish a team of instructors.
Dividing his attention, Di Xin also didn't neglect the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace.
He immediately ordered his sons to start dealing with disasters in various places.
On this day, in an area previously afflicted by flooding, real dragons suddenly appeared to help open up river channels and construct dams using immortal arts, finally bringing the floods under control.
As for places suffering from drought, they heard dragon roars from the suspended sky, followed by dense clouds, lightning, and pouring rain!
"I’m Ao Bing from the Dragon Clan, here raining under the command of the Human King!"
Such voices echoed everywhere.
The people all knelt and shouted, "Long live the King!"
Even in Ji Province, Di Xin could clearly feel the increasing fortune of Shang Dynasty!
"Marquis Su Hu of Ji Province, greeting to Your Majesty!"
Outside the city of Ji Province, Su Hu bowed with a lowered head, teeth clenched. He had long heard that King Zhou was coming to Ji Province for his daughter, and today was the day!
Di Xin, with burning eyes, moved towards an exceptionally beautiful woman, as if he wanted to devour her.
Seeing this, Su Hu couldn't help but think, "Today, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I won't let you, this foolish ruler, take my daughter!"
"Marquis Su, no need for such courtesy..."
Di Xin descended from the carriage, not even looking at Su Hu, and went straight to Su Daji. Su Hu clenched his fists tightly, eyes ablaze!
"Dirty..."
Before the word "ruler" was spoken, Di Xin unexpectedly bypassed Daji and went straight to a strange beast behind her.
The creature had well-developed limbs, with eyes glowing red like burning flames!
"Well well well... is this the Fiery-Eyed Beast?"
Su Hu was momentarily stunned; how was this different from what he had imagined?
Beside him, Huang Feihu asked, "Marquis Su, what did you just say?"
"Uh... I said my clothes are dirty somehow. I must be too eager to meet his Majesty that I didn’t notice there are some dirty dots on my clothes."
Huang Feihu stared at Su Hu with eyes as cold as deep ice.
"Weird..."
Meanwhile, Di Xin, one hand caressing the Fiery-Eyed Beast, and the other leading a robust man, had an expression of immense joy.
Watching this scene, Su Daji bit her teeth. Her looks and figure were no less than extraordinary, but this ruler chose to ignore her...
Foolish ruler！
“You must be Zheng Lun, I’ve heard a lot about you for a long time.”
Zheng Lun was originally a grain supervisor, holding one of the lowest official positions. The fact that the Emperor of the Shang Dynasty spoke highly of him left him pleasantly surprised.
“Your Majesty, this humble one dares not accept such a great reputation.”
“Haha, don’t be shy. Let’s talk inside…”
Di Xin grabbed Zheng Lun’s hand and walked towards the city of Ji Province, followed by the Fiery-Eyed Beast.
Observing this, Su Hu immediately ran to his daughter, carefully examining her from head to toe. Indeed, she was extraordinarily beautiful. Why didn’t Di Xin even spare her a glance?
Does Di Xin have a preference for men?
An evil thought emerged in Su Hu’s mind!
As the sky darkened, a grand feast was arranged in the city of Ji Province.
“Zheng Lun, sit by my side!”
“Your Majesty, it’s not appropriate…”
Di Xin grabbed Zheng Lun and forcefully pulled him to his side.
“I said it’s fine, so it’s fine!”
Although Zheng Lun was not highly important, his master was Du'e Zhenren. For Di Xin today, establishing connections wherever possible was crucial!
Su Hu witnessed this scene, and his heart couldn’t help but tremble. Could King Zhou really have a preference for men? This was terrifying!
After couple cups of drinks and a variety of dishes, everyone was intoxicated.
“I’d like to say a few words…”
Huang Feihu spoke, “Your Majesty, please.”
“I’ve been on the throne for several years, and although I have no major accomplishments, I’ve also committed no major mistakes. During my journey to Ji Province, I witnessed much human suffering, which deeply saddened me.”
Di Xin intermittently sniffled, stirring the emotions of everyone in the hall.
