纣王 敛吸民脂， 不信当年放桀时；
积粟已无千载计，盈财岂有百年期？
须知世运无真主，却笑贪淫有阿痴；
今日还归民社去，从来天意岂容私？
话说众(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)诸(zhu)侯(hou)俱上了九间殿(dian)，只见(jian)丹墀下，大小将领头目等众(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)，跻跻跄跄，簇拥(yong)两旁；子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)传令(ling)军士(shi)，先救(jiu)灭(mie)宫(gong)中(zhong)火(huo)焰。武(wu)(wu)(wu)王对子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)曰(yue)(yue)："纣(zhou)王无(wu)道，残(can)(can)虐(nve)生民，而六(liu)宫(gong)近在(zai)肘腋，其宫(gong)人(ren)(ren)侍宦，被(bei)害更深。令(ling)军士(shi)救(jiu)火(huo)，不(bu)无(wu)波及无(wu)辜(gu)，相父首先严禁，毋令(ling)复遭陷害也。"子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)忙传令(ling)："凡军士(shi)人(ren)(ren)等，止(zhi)许救(jiu)火(huo)，毋得肆(si)行暴(bao)虐(nve)。敢有违令(ling)，妄(wang)取六(liu)宫(gong)中(zhong)一物(wu)，妄(wang)杀(sha)(sha)一人(ren)(ren)者，斩首示众(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)，决不(bu)姑息，好自知悉。"只见(jian)众(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)官(guan)人(ren)(ren)宦官(guan)，齐呼万岁(sui)！武(wu)(wu)(wu)王在(zai)九间殿(dian)驻跸，与众(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)诸(zhu)侯(hou)看众(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)军士(shi)救(jiu)火(huo)。武(wu)(wu)(wu)王猛抬头，看见(jian)殿(dian)东(dong)边有黄色(se)二十根大铜柱，排列在(zai)旁，武(wu)(wu)(wu)王问(wen)(wen)曰(yue)(yue)："此(ci)铜柱乃(nai)是何物(wu)？"子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)曰(yue)(yue)："此(ci)铜柱乃(nai)纣(zhou)王所造炮烙之(zhi)刑。"武(wu)(wu)(wu)王曰(yue)(yue)："善哉！善哉！不(bu)但(dan)受刑者甚惨，只今日孤观之(zhi)，不(bu)觉心胆俱裂(lie)。纣(zhou)天子(zi)(zi)可(ke)谓残(can)(can)忍之(zhi)甚！"子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)引武(wu)(wu)(wu)王入後宫(gong)，至(zhi)摘(zhai)星楼下，虿盆(pen)面蛇 ，上下翻腾，白骨(gu)暴(bao)露，枯骸(hai)乱滚，酒池内阴风(feng)凄凄。武(wu)(wu)(wu)王问(wen)(wen)曰(yue)(yue)："此(ci)是何故？"子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)曰(yue)(yue)："此(ci)是纣(zhou)王所制虿盆(pen)，杀(sha)(sha)害宫(gong)人(ren)(ren)者，左(zuo)右正是肉林酒池。"武(wu)(wu)(wu)王曰(yue)(yue)："商(shang)天子(zi)(zi)无(wu)仁德之(zhi)心，一至(zhi)此(ci)也！"不(bu)胜(sheng)伤感，乃(nai)作诗以纪之(zhi)：
"成汤开网德声扬，放桀南巢正大纲；
六(liu)百(bai)年来(lai)风气(qi)薄，谁知惨恶(e)伤(shang)疆(jiang)场？"
又炮(pao)烙(luo)之刑，作诗以纪之：
"苦陷忠良性独偏，肆行炮烙悦婵娟；
遣魄常旁黄金在，楼下(xia)焚烧业(ye)报牵。"
话说武王(wang)来(lai)至摘星(xing)楼，见馀火尚存，烟焰未(wei)(wei)尽(jin)，烧得七狼八狈，也有无辜宫人(ren)(ren)，遭此大(da)劫。尚有遗(yi)骸(hai)未(wei)(wei)尽(jin)，臭秽(hui)难闻；武王(wang)更(geng)觉(jue)心(xin)中(zhong)不(bu)忍(ren)，忙吩咐军士，快将这些遗(yi)骸(hai)，检出去掩(yan)埋，无令暴(bao)(bao)露。谓子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)曰："但不(bu)知纣王(wang)骸(hai)骨(gu)，埋於何(he)(he)所(suo)？当另为检出，以(yi)礼安葬(zang)，不(bu)可使(shi)其暴(bao)(bao)露。你我为人(ren)(ren)臣者(zhe)，此心(xin)何(he)(he)安？"子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)对曰："纣王(wang)无道，人(ren)(ren)神(shen)共怒，今(jin)日自焚，实所(suo)以(yi)报之(zhi)(zhi)也。今(jin)大(da)王(wang)以(yi)礼葬(zang)之(zhi)(zhi)，诚大(da)王(wang)之(zhi)(zhi)仁耳。"子(zi)(zi)牙(ya)吩咐军士，检点遗(yi)骸(hai)，毋使(shi)混(hun)杂。须寻纣王(wang)骸(hai)骨(gu)，具衣衾，以(yi)天子(zi)(zi)之(zhi)(zhi)礼葬(zang)之(zhi)(zhi)。後人(ren)(ren)有诗，叹成(cheng)汤(tang)王(wang)业，如斯而尽(jin)：

吱山鸣凤知祯瑞，殿陛赓歌进寿杯；
四海(hai)雍熙(xi)从此盛，周(zhou)家泰运又重(zhong)开。"
话说(shuo)周公旦画了(le)(le)图样，於天(tian)地坛(tan)(tan)前(qian)，造一座台，台高(gao)(gao)三(san)层(ceng)，按(an)三(san)才之(zhi)象，分八(ba)卦(gua)之(zhi)正，中设皇天(tian)后(hou)土(tu)之(zhi)位，旁立(li)山川社(she)稷之(zhi)神，左(zuo)右(you)有十(shi)(shi)二元神，按(an)号(hao)上(shang)，子、丑 、寅、卯(mao)、辰、巳、午、未、申、酉、戌、亥(hai)，立(li)於其地。前(qian)後(hou)有十(shi)(shi)杆 号(hao)，按(an)甲、乙、丙(bing)、丁、戊、己、庚、辛(xin)、壬、癸(gui)，立(li)於本位。坛(tan)(tan)上(shang)有四季正神方位，春(chun)曰(yue)(yue)太昊(hao)，夏曰(yue)(yue)炎(yan)帝，秋曰(yue)(yue)少昊(hao)，冬日(ri)颛琐，中有黄帝轩辕坛(tan)(tan)。上(shang)罗列(lie)笾豆 簋，金(jin)爵玉 ， 陈设器具；并生□（诌字(zi)去了(le)(le)";言"）炙脯，列(lie)於几席，酱鱼肉，设於案(an)桌，无(wu)不齐备。只见香烧宝(bao)鼎，花插(cha)金(jin)瓶，子牙方请武王(wang)上(shang)坛(tan)(tan)。武王(wang)再三(san)谦(qian)让，然(ran)後(hou)登坛(tan)(tan)。八(ba)百诸侯(hou)，齐立(li)於两旁，周公旦高(gao)(gao)捧祝文，上(shang)坛(tan)(tan)开读(du)祝文曰(yue)(yue)：
"惟(wei)大周(zhou)元(yuan)年壬辰，越甲子昧(mei)爽，三(san)日哉生明，西岐姬发，敢昭告於(wu)(wu)皇天(tian)后土神 曰(yue)： 呜呼！惟(wei)天(tian)惠民，惟(wei)辟奉天(tian)，有殷受(shou)弗克上(shang)天(tian)，自绝於(wu)(wu)民。臣(chen)发承祖宗(zong)累洽之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)仁，列(lie)圣相沿之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)德。予小子曷(he)敢有越厥(jue)志，恭天(tian)承命(ming)，底商之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)罪，大正於(wu)(wu)商。惟(wei)尔神，克承厥(jue)勋，诞膺(ying)天(tian)命(ming)。予小子方日夜 惧，恐坠前烈，敬修未遑。无奈诸侯 老军民人等， 书请(qing)再三(san)，众(zhong)志诚难固(gu)违(wei)，俯从群议。爰考(kao)旧(jiu)典，诹吉(ji)日，告於(wu)(wu)天(tian)地(di)宗(zong)庙社(she)稷，暨我文考(kao)；於(wu)(wu)是(shi)日受(shou)册宝，嗣即大位。仰承中外(wai)靖共之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)颂，天(tian)人协(xie)应之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)符(fu)，庆日月(yue)之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)照临，膺(ying)皇天(tian)之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)永命(ming)。尚望福我维新：永终不替(ti)，慰兆人胥戴之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)情，垂(chui)累叶无疆之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)绪。神其鉴兹，伏惟(wei)尚飨。"
话说周公旦读罢祝文，焚(fen)了，祝告天地毕(bi)，只见香烟笼(long)罩，空中瑞(rui)霭，氤氲满地。其日天明气(qi)清，惠(hui)风和畅，真是昌期应运，太平景(jing)象(xiang)，自(zi)然回别。那朝歌百(bai)(bai)(bai)姓拥挤，遍地欢呼。武王(wang)受了朋宝，即天子位，面南垂拱端坐(zuo)，乐奏三番，众(zhong)诸侯(hou)执笏山呼万岁。拜(bai)祝毕(bi)，武王(wang)传(chuan)旨(zhi)，大赦(she)天下。众(zhong)人(ren)簇(cu)拥武王(wang)下坛，来至殿庭，从新拜(bai)贺毕(bi)，武王(wang)传(chuan)旨(zhi)，命排(pai)九龙(long)筵席，大宴八百(bai)(bai)(bai)诸侯(hou)。君臣(chen)共乐，众(zhong)人(ren)酒过数(shu)巡，俱各欢畅，百(bai)(bai)(bai)官各已深(shen)沉。各辞阙谢恩而散。後人(ren)读史，见武王(wang)一戎衣而有(you)天下，君臣(chen)和乐，作诗以咏之：
"坛下香风绕圣王，军民嵩祝舞霓裳；
江山依旧承柴望，社稷重新乐裸将。
金阙晓临仙掌动，玉阶时听佩环忙；
庶熙 清明(ming)世，万姓讴歌庆(qing)未(wei)央。"
说那(nei)次日武王(wang)设朝(chao)，众诸(zhu)侯(hou)(hou)朝(chao)贺毕，武王(wang)谓(wei)子牙曰："殷纣(zhou)因广施土木之(zhi)(zhi)工(gong)，竭天下(xia)(xia)之(zhi)(zhi)财，荒(huang)淫失政，故有(you)此败。朕蒙众诸(zhu)侯(hou)(hou)立之(zhi)(zhi)为(wei)君(jun)，朕欲将鹿台之(zhi)(zhi)财，给散与天下(xia)(xia)诸(zhu)侯(hou)(hou)，颁赐(ci)各(ge)(ge)夷王(wang)衣(yi)袭之(zhi)(zhi)费。列(lie)爵为(wei)五，分土为(wei)三，建官惟(wei)贤，位事惟(wei)能。重民五教，惟(wei)食丧祭(ji)，信明义，崇(chong)德(de)报功，命(ming)诸(zhu)侯(hou)(hou)各(ge)(ge)引人马(ma)归国，以安(an)享其土地。"又将摘星楼殿阁，尽行(xing)拆毁。散鹿台之(zhi)(zhi)财，发巨挢(jiao)之(zhi)(zhi)粟，释箕子之(zhi)(zhi)囚(qiu)，封比(bi)干之(zhi)(zhi)基，式商容之(zhi)(zhi)间，放内宫之(zhi)(zhi)人，大赉於(wu)四海，而万(wan)姓悦服。乃偃武修文(wen)，归马(ma)於(wu)华山之(zhi)(zhi)阳，放牛於(wu)桃林之(zhi)(zhi)野，以示天下(xia)(xia)弗(fu)服。武王(wang)在朝(chao)歌旬月(yue)，万(wan)民乐(le)业，人物(wu)安(an)阜；瑞草(cao)生，凤(feng)凰现，醴泉溢(yi)，甘露降，景星庆云，熙庶，真(zhen)是太平景象。有(you)诗为(wei)证：
"八十公公杖策行，相逢欢笑话生平；
眼中不见干戈事，耳内稀闻战鼓声。
每见麒鳞鸾凤现，常听丝竹管弦鸣；
而今世上称宁(ning)宇，不似当年(nian)枕席惊(jing)。"

话说子牙次日入朝，见武王奏曰："昔日老臣奉师命下山，助陛下吊民伐罪，原是应运而兴；凡人仙皆逢杀劫，先立有封神榜，在封神台上。今大事已定，人仙魂魄无依，老臣特启陛下，给假往昆仑山，见师尊，请王符金册，来封众神，早安其位；望陛下准老臣施行。"武王曰："相父劳苦多年，当享太平之福，但此事亦是不了之局，相父可速即施行，不得久羁仙岛，令朝臣朝夕凝望。"子牙曰："老臣怎敢有负圣恩，而乐游林壑也。"子牙忙辞武王，回相府，沐浴毕，驾土遁往昆仑山而来。不知後事如何？且看下回分解。
