The intensification of the turmoil in the world finally made those with great ambitions see the opportunity to display their talents and learning, the highest pursuit between the world is to be the marquis of Worship, Jiang Ziya and Shen Gongbao are naturally unwilling to give up such an opportunity, Jiang Ziya saw that Xiqi was thriving under ji Chang's governance, thinking that he would inevitably be able to replace him in the future, so he was ready to go to assist, Shen Gongbao saw that after Jiang Ziya was selected, he was unwilling to live under the people, and at the same time, in order to compete with Jiang Ziya, he chose to go to the court to assist the King of Zuo.
Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya were originally brothers of the same disciple, but the personalities of the two were very different, Shen Gongbao was competitive and competitive, good at conspiracy and trickery, Jiang Ziya had a peaceful personality, paying attention to the brightness and integrity of everything, although he would also use conspiracies but would not violate the principle in the end, because of this, Shen Gongbao was not liked by the master, and was constantly reprimanded.
In the face of the bad situation, everyone will instinctively shift the responsibility to others, although Shen Gongbao is very capable, but still can not get rid of the control of his own emotions, unconsciously he will attribute all his resentment to Jiang Ziya, he compares with Jiang Ziya everywhere, hoping to get the master's equal treatment, but it is counterproductive, which leads to Shen Gongbao's resentment towards everyone.
Jiang Ziya wanted to go out to assist Ji Chang, but he was afraid that he would not be taken seriously, so he spread news everywhere that there was a wise man on the banks of the Weishui River, Ji Chang was thirsty for talent at this time, he heard the news and led the crowd to go, after many explorations finally found Jiang Ziya, after a conversation between the two sides, Ji Chang found that Jiang Ziya really had the ability to settle the country in Anbang, and under his repeated requests, Jiang Ziya decided to go out to the mountain to help him.
After Shen Gongbao came to Chaoge, he knew that it was extremely difficult for him to meet the King of Gong, so he went to see Fei Zhong when he had nothing to do, and Fei Zhong heard that someone had come to see fei zhong, who originally did not want to take care of it, but after thinking about it, he dared to come alone must be a capable person, so he asked people to bring Shen Gongbao into the palace.
After the two sides exchanged names, Shen Gongbao said lord, how can you not perceive it, Fei Zhong said that my high position of power can be dangerous, Shen Gongbao said that since ancient times, "Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the deeds are higher than the people will be destroyed", and now although you are in a high position of authority, you have been opposed by the majority, if one day there is civil unrest, how should you deal with it, Fei Zhong pondered for a moment and said, I hope you will teach me.
Shen Gongbao said that now you should retreat in a hurry and elect new talents to serve as everyone, only in this way can you divert the attention of everyone, so as to ensure your own safety, Fei Zhong said that such a strategy is very good, but who should I recommend, Shen Gongbao said that the more he thinks that adults are doing the work of dogs and horses.
The next day, Fei Zhong took advantage of the opportunity to meet the King of Lu to recommend Shen Gongbao to him, after some questions and answers, the King of Shen found that Shen Gongbao was indeed quite talented, so he asked him to stay by his side to assist himself, Fei Zhong wanted to resign but was rejected by the King of Gong, Fei Zhong had no choice but to fully support Shen Gongbao to make him the focus of everyone.
As Shen Gongbao's power grew, Fei Zhong's health became worse and worse, and not long after the terrace was built, Fei Zhong died, and Shen Gongbao thus took over the major affairs of the Shang Dynasty in an all-round way, and under his suggestion, the King of Lu continued to launch wars and conquests of the princes, and the long conquest laid a huge territory of the Shang Dynasty, but the consumption of resources was also great, in order to collect resources, the King of Gong could only continuously order the requisition of the people's rations, and the people's lives fell into a more difficult situation.
