I am a fox in the prehistoric times

Chapter 821 Ji Chang's Past

If he lost his kingdom for the sake of a beautiful woman, then Emperor Xin would be a sinner of the Shang Dynasty. After his death, how could he have the face to pay homage to his ancestors who had not yet been reincarnated in the underworld?

Bai Zhen was unaware of Di Xin's resolute decision, but even if he had known, he wouldn't have shown any reaction. After all, in Bai Zhen's view, love was all an illusion, and only the Great Dao existed. He only wanted to pursue the Great Dao in his life, rather than indulging in romantic love!

After receiving the imperial decree from the Shang Dynasty to bestow a marriage upon him, Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo, immediately realized that something was wrong. Although Ji Chang had many concubines and nearly a hundred sons, he had always regarded these women as tools for procreation and had not invested much genuine affection in them.

Among all his children, he valued his eldest son, Boyi Kao, and his second son, Ji Fa, the most! His eldest son was gentle and refined, extremely filial to his parents, and doted on his younger brothers and sisters. He was the best heir to the title of Marquis of Xibo!

However, ever since he accidentally divined that the Shang Dynasty's fate was not long-lasting and that his own lineage was about to rise to prominence and establish its own unified dynasty, Ji Chang could no longer suppress his desires. He was constantly thinking about how to change the world and make the Ji clan a true royal family!

This also made him somewhat dissatisfied with his eldest son, whom he had once been extremely satisfied with. His eldest son, Boyi Kao, had truly been poisoned by the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Whenever he showed the slightest ambition, he would be criticized by his eldest son, who would lecture him with a lot of grand principles!

On the contrary, his second son was a born ambitious man, just like him, who was only interested in profit. On the surface, he pretended to be a saint. It was precisely because of his second son's outstanding performance that he valued Ji Fa more and more, and he entrusted Ji Fa with many matters related to the rebellion.

As for the people's conditions, he left them to his eldest son, Boyi Kao, to worry about, while he himself sat behind the scenes and enjoyed the fruits of others' labor!

According to Ji Chang's calculations, he will soon achieve the goal of having a hundred sons. Once he achieves this goal and finds a great sage to help Xiqi, then Xiqi will be able to accomplish great things!

However, at such a critical juncture, Emperor Xin sent a person for a marriage alliance, and specifically named the second son, Ji Fa, as the bride. This made Ji Chang suspect that Emperor Xin had discovered his secret plans.

Or perhaps Di Xin felt that Xiqi was a potential threat to the rule of Yin Shang, and prepared to use Su Daji, the daughter of Su Hu of Jizhou, to sow discord between the brothers Boyi Kao and Ji Fa!

It should be noted that, to date, his eldest son, Boyi Kao, is still unmarried, and he has not yet chosen a suitable wife for him!

If he were to let his second son marry before Boyi Kao, how would the world view him as a father? Would they think he was incompetent and was preparing to let Ji Fa replace him?

As for Boyi Kao, he is still unmarried and has no marriage partner. It is really not Ji Chang's fault. It is just that his sons were born too late!

When Ji Chang came of age, his father arranged for him to get married, and he did not have much objection to it, after all, his wife was not ugly and they got along well!

However, the two had been married for a long time but had no children. Ji Chang even consulted the oracle, only to find that his time to have children had not yet come and he could not force it!

Ten years after his marriage, Ji Chang still had no children. Tai Si personally selected concubines for him, but despite the increasing number of concubines, there was still no sign of offspring!

Ji Chang had no children until his parents passed away. Ji Chang's parents initially thought it was Tai Si's doing, so they invited a doctor to examine the concubines. They also gave Ji Chang three children who were good at bearing children, but in the end, there was still no sign of pregnancy.

Gradually, Ji Chang's parents realized that the problem wasn't with their daughter-in-law, but rather with their son! They were saddened by this for a while!
