In "The Romance of the Gods", Jiang Ziya is both a disciple of elucidation and teaching, with a deep background, and a prime minister of Xiqi who enjoys glory and prosperity. The only regret is that he can neither become a god nor an immortal, but only a mortal. The counterpart of
and Jiang Ziya is Wen Zhong. Wen Zhong was both a disciple of Jiu Jiao and Taishi of the Shang Dynasty.
In fact, Jiang Ziya is also quite contradictory. He wants to be a prime minister and also wants to be enshrined, because during the Falling Soul Formation, Jiang Ziya’s soul flew into the Conferred God Platform, hoping to be ennobled and become one of the heavens. The element, unfortunately, was pushed out by the Qing Fu Shen Baijian.
Jiang Ziya’s contradiction is actually quite easy to explain, because his fate is not determined by himself, but by the master Yuanshi Tianzun. After all, Jiang Ziya is just a pawn for Yuanshi Tianzun to perform the mission of conferring the gods.
Jiang Ziya was very helpless about this. For example, once he had promised Ji Chang one thing, but he finally regretted it. When Zhou Wen Wang Jichang was dying, he was going to entrust Jiang Ziya with something: "After I die, my son is young, and I fear to listen to others' words and arbitrarily conquer. If the emperor is not virtuous, he must not do anything wrong and kill him as a minister. The name of the emperor. Come here, worship Ziya as the sub-father, and listen to the instructions sooner or later.
It can be seen from this that Ji Chang didn't want to kill the gang, let alone the charge of "killing the king". Ji Chang only wanted his descendants to stand by themselves and treat the people of Xiqi well. Therefore, he asked his son Ji Fa to worship Jiang Ziya as his sub-father and listen to Jiang Ziya's opinions more often. At the same time, he also hoped that Jiang Ziya would help Ji Fa well.
Ji Chang's last words, Jiang Ziya was deeply moved: "The minister received the great favor of the king, although his liver and brain were wiped out, his bones were sacrificed, and it was not enough to reward the country." However, Jiang Ziya's remarks still made Ji Chang worried. Ji Chang said: "If I die, the monarch will be wicked, and I must not listen to the instigation of the princes and defeat the princes. If the prime minister violates the solitary words, he will be dead. It's not easy to meet".
Ji Chang emphasized again not to cut down, and said that if Jiang Ziya violated his last words, it would be difficult to meet in the underworld. In order for Ji Chang to go with peace of mind, Jiang Ziya gave a promise: "The minister is graced by the lotus, and he is in a position to dare not be killed. If you bear the rule, you will be unfaithful." Z1z
Seeing that, Jiang Ziya will obey Ji Chang’s last words are not to cut down. But in fact, not long after Ji Chang died, Jiang Ziya began to cut down on behalf of King Wu, so Jiang Ziya repented. In fact, having said that, Jiang Ziya’s repentance was really helpless. , The thing about cutting down is actually arranged by Yuanshi Tianzun
