It turns out that the palace of the good man country is on the top of a hill, it is a cluster of golden and brilliant, solemn palace clusters, the top and middle palace is the highest and the most magnificent, and the palaces on the left and right sides rise and fall in turn, setting off the palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After inquiry, Su Yue learned that the official also used the Han surname and the surname Li. A group of people came to a mountain road, there is a small archway in front of the mountain road, and there are three big characters of "Wenchen Road" written on it. Master Li explained: "There are two roads to the palace, the one on the right is called Wenchen Road, and there is also a military attache road on the left, and the two roads are straight and transparent, if you open the gate on the road in turn, you can see the palace gate on the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain. ”

There was a burst of exclamation.

Lord Li took out the waist card, and then the small corner door next to it opened, where he saw, there were yellow walls and red tiles, and there was no one in addition to the high wall at the end of the eye, which couldn't help but make people feel afraid, people often said that the Hou Gate was like the sea, and when I saw it today, it was really not a place where ordinary people go. The palace is built by the mountain, so the palace is the stairs up the mountain, there is a palace gate every half a mile, there is a small door next to the palace gate, Lord Li led Su Yue and other four people to walk and climb five corner gates, tired Tong Xi sweat wet back, panting, when the fifth corner door opens, look down the mountain, although the palace gate behind is closed, but you can still see a straight purple eaves on the top of the wall. Seeing Tong Xi's admiration in her heart, she didn't react until Dianyin urged her to follow them.

After passing the last door, there was a herald to report to the inside, and after a while, the herald came out again, asking Lord Li to take Su Yue and others to the hall to wait. Originally, there were six main palaces in the palace of the good king, in addition to the highest palace in the center and the courtiers participated in political affairs, there were five separate halls of benevolence, righteousness, ceremony, wisdom and letters.

Lord Li took Su Yue and others to the hall of worship, but saw nearly a hundred heavily armed palace guards standing outside the hall in an orderly manner. Lord Li nervously stepped forward and asked why this was arranged? The captain of the guard walked out of the team, and said with a high chest: "It has broken the rules for the lord of the country to allow these Green Forest people to enter the hall with weapons in hand, and the subordinates are doing this for the sake of insurance. ”

His voice was so loud that it was impossible for Su Yue and the others not to hear it.

Lord Li looked at the four of them for a while, and looked at the captain of the guard who was talking to him, and he was nervous. When he finished speaking, he said angrily: "You are simply fooling around, it is the people below who are at fault first, you will spoil the sincerity of the lord of the country and frighten the guests of the lord! When the time comes, the lord of the country will blame him, will you be responsible?"

The captain of the guard was a young man, and Lord Li had a bigger official position than him, so he was not convinced, and muttered: "The country is mainly a ...... Are you responsible?"

Lord Li was furious, but he couldn't yell at the captain of the guard like he scolded the head of the prison, because they were all close ministers of the lord. He ignored the captain of the guard, turned to the dozens of guards with serious expressions and said, "They are all disbanded, you are so disrespectful to the guests!" The dozens of guards did not listen to him at all, their expressions were serious and motionless! Lord Li took a sharp breath, took out the waist card from his waist, and said in a loud voice: "In the name of the lord of the country, this official orders you to dismiss immediately, otherwise you will all be punished for serious crimes!" When he said the words "serious crimes", he turned around and showed the waist card in front of the captain of the guard. There is a pair of leopards with their heads and tails in a circle, and the word "Shang Fang" is engraved in the lower right corner, which is obviously a waist card given by the lord of the country.

The guards all looked at their captain and wavered. The captain of the guard snorted in his throat, lowered his head and squeezed out a word from his teeth: "Withdraw!" The guards left in an orderly manner.

After Su Yue and the others entered the hall, Lord Li led them to a round table on the right side of the hall and went out again. Su Yue looked around and found that the placement in the hall was similar to that of the Eight Counties. In the eight counties, there are generally two kinds of seats in the banquet hall in the county court, one is the large seat, that is, a piece of space is vacated in the center of the banquet hall, and an oval-shaped table is placed on the four sides of the room, the table of the chairman and the guest of honor is the largest, and the table on both sides is slightly smaller. The second is a small table similar to the folk one, where everyone gathers around a round table to eat. The small banquet is generally in the side room or corner of the banquet hall, although the specifications are not as good as the large banquet, but the furnishings are not bad at all, the screens of celebrity calligraphy and painting, the antiques of gold and jade stones, and the potted plants of exotic flowers and plants, there are many of them. Such a small banquet is generally a banquet for the county lord to entertain personal friends or favorite ministers, and the scale and dishes are smaller than the large banquet, and it does not pay attention to many etiquettes like the large banquet. Of course, this so-called small seat in the court, compared with the people, is also the big seat of the big seat, not to mention anything else, the size of the round table, the material of the tablecloth is not available to the people.

After Su Yue and the others were seated, Gong E would already come up to accompany them. Tong Xi has always wanted to go to the county government to see the place where the county lord lives as early as in Wanjing City, and now her dream has finally come true, although it is only a small country, but everything in front of her has opened her eyes, as small as a tablecloth, a pair of chopsticks, all of which have never been seen, she is like a newborn baby, curious about everything that can be seen in her eyes.

After a while, the herald outside shouted, "The lord has arrived—"

Everyone stood up and saluted, and the lord of the good man country led Master Li to stride and hurriedly walked to the side of the small seat. Lord Li introduced Su Yue, Dian Yin, Qingzhu (Liao Tingyun) and Tong Xi to the lord of the country one by one. Tong Xi kept her head down, and when Master Li introduced her, she raised her head slightly and glanced at the lord of the country standing in front of her. He also looked to be in his twenties, with naturally curly black hair. The forehead is wide and the face is broad, the eyebrows are thick and the eyes are big, the posture is majestic, and there is a thick black and shiny beard. The bronzed eyes, flashing with exotic style, and the tall figure with the exquisite crown, are half a head taller than Su Yue. The young lord of the kingdom was filled with a charming handsome and handsome air.

There were only six people seated at the banquet, except for Su and Dian, who were the lord of the good country and Lord Li. The lord of the country sits in the main seat, Su Yue is the guest of honor on the right of the lord, Li Daren is the second guest of honor on the left, and Liao Tingyun, Dian Yin, and Tong Xi are arranged in turn. In fact, Dian Yin and the others are quite restrained, and they are still in prison, and they have become the guests of the lord of the country at this time, such a huge contrast, who can accept it by ordinary people? .

Seeing that most of the four of them were silent and indifferent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, the lord stood up and raised his wine glass, and the other five people saw this, and they all quickly got up and held their wine glasses. The lord of the country smiled and said: "All the heroes have traveled thousands of miles from the eight counties to our country, which is really a blessing for our country, but the people below have no eyes and have collided with you, and the widow is here, and I have made amends to the four heroes!"

Su Yue hurriedly greeted his drinking arm and said: "The lord of the country is so humble and corporal, let the grass people and others be flattered!" The lord of the country did not speak, but slapped his hands, and nine palace maids turned out behind the screen, all holding a large tray in their hands, covered with a yellow silk scarf with red silk edges, and when the yellow silk scarf was uncovered, there were four people each dragging a plate of gold ingots, each of the four dragging a plate of square boxes, and one person dragging a plate of long boxes. When the four-plate square box was opened, there were four golden daggers, and the handles and sheaths of the daggers were also inlaid with various gems. The gold ingots shone with a golden yellow light, and the various colored gems on the dagger shone with colored light. Tong Xi stood up unconsciously, his eyes straightened.

The lord of the country said: "A slight gift, please the four heroes must accept it, and accept the widow's heart of reparation." ”

Tong Xi was about to go forward to get it happily, she didn't really care about the gold and daggers, all she had in her eyes was the various colored gems that were shining on the daggers. But she couldn't stand up, and when she turned her head, Su Yue was pressing her hand. Tong Xi glanced at him, thinking that he still had to pay attention to etiquette, so he sat down and waited for the palace maids to bring these things to them. But I heard Su Yue say:

"Slow!"

Su Yue stood up, lowered his eyebrows and hugged his fists to the lord of the country and said, "No merit will be punished." The inferior ones are just tourists from other countries, outsiders, who have no merit in your country and have no friendship with your lord, how dare they accept such a generous gift?"

The lord of the country took a sip of wine, hissing in his mouth, and suddenly raised his head and waved his hand to the palace maids: "Put things here, all out!"

Then he said to Lord Li: "Aiqing, you also go out, spread the will of the widow, no one is allowed within fifty zhang of this hall, violators, beheaded!"

Everyone hurried out in silence, and there was a suppressed panic inside and outside the hall, and those who didn't know thought that disaster had fallen from heaven in the hall, and the earthquake shook the mountain, and everyone was fleeing for their lives

Su, Dian, and Liao all clenched the swords on their bodies in case of accidents.

With a cup of tea, the people inside and outside the hall were all evacuated, and they did not hear the sound of birds or insects, as if they had also been expelled, and there was silence as far as the eye could see.

The four of them all looked at the lord of the country, only to see him sit down calmly, and said straight to the point: "What happened to you, everyone knows it. If you can sit still, you will tell us about our past and present life, and then you will understand it all. After speaking, he turned his head to look at the four of them, and Su Yue and the others all nodded.

The lord said: "My ancestors have been founding the country for more than 300 years, and most of the people at that time were the people of the eight counties who avoided the war in the south and the Qi people who went south in the north. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, due to the impact of the war in the eight southern counties, the people's minds were in turmoil, the discipline was lax, the good feared the evil, and the evil prevailed over the good. Therefore, the ancestors formulated laws and promulgated laws and regulations according to the principle that 'good people do good deeds and are protected by the state, and evil people do bad deeds and the state severely punishes them'.

Suddenly, from top to bottom, everyone advocated being kind to others, and almost overnight there was a good atmosphere of not leaving the road behind and not closing the door at night. The ancestors also used their talents to strengthen the country and enrich the people, and in just a few decades, they became a powerful country in the northern part of the country from one poor and two white. Zhou Bang is famous, and they all come to pay tribute, and even the big family in the eight counties, Damu, took the initiative to make friends with me, which is really unique for a while. At that time, trade with other countries led to economic and trade prosperity, and now the tea port in the foothills of the national border is a symbol of trade with foreign countries at that time. ”

"When we came, the tea port was quite depressed, and there were only the marks of the foundation on the uphill road, and there was not a single house or store, why is this?"

"It's still hard to walk!" said Tong Xi.

"Hey!" the lord sighed, "After the ancestor promulgated the law, due to the special conditions at that time, he promulgated a law to the whole country for the sake of the long-term plan of the good people's country: good people can inherit 'good people', and 'wicked people' have been 'evil people' for generations, so a very small number of 'good people' are getting richer and richer, and most of the 'wicked people' are getting poorer and poorer. Now, even the widows feel that the country of good people has changed its taste. The first king had the intention to reform, but he had no choice but to obstruct too much, and entrusted this important task to the widow before his death, but now the foundation of the ancestors is like fine sand between his fingers, and the widow can not prevent it from losing no matter how clenched his fists. ”

The four of them suddenly realized that they finally knew the reason why Qin Zhao was arrested.

"Isn't there anyone in your country who sees the shortcomings in this and plans national policies for the lord of the country?" asked Su Yue.

"Yes, of course there is, just three months ago, Prime Minister Zuo, who has been leading the reform of the law, was imprisoned by the widow for the crime of treason. ”

Su Yue touched his beard and pondered for a while. "The lord of the country said that the conservative forces have been obstructing reform, could this crime be framed by them?"

The lord of the country sighed and said: "It is worthy of General Su, who is known as Pihu, and the widow also thought that this was designed by others to frame him, but when the widow heard about this report, he was confused for a while, and handed over the case to the right prime minister and the emperor's uncle for trial." It wasn't until after Prime Minister Zuo was arrested that all the new policy measures were stopped, and the widow suddenly woke up. As a result, the evidence was conclusive, and in front of the ministers, the widow could not protect him clearly, so he had to be put in prison. However, the widow had already sent his cronies to guard him from being poisoned. ”

"The grass people take the liberty of saying, are these right prime ministers and imperial uncles the old guards who obstruct the new deal?" asked Su Yue.

"The old school is headed by the two of them, and the widow's imperial uncle is a concubine, but he is talented, and the old master was going to pass on the throne to him, just because he is a concubine, and he is not the eldest son, so he has to give up. The first lord also took pity on him for his lack of ambition in his life, and gave him a hereditary first-class knighthood for life, but the widow knew that he always thought that it was the first lord and the widow who robbed him of his position. He is also the biggest backstage of the old school. ”

"What about the right prime minister?"

"The right prime minister is an official family, in our country, Wan is a big surname, the power is huge, the foundation is quite deep, the reform implemented by the left prime minister, the biggest touch is him, this is an old fox, although on the surface to take the initiative to help the left prime minister to implement the new policy, but secretly has been colluding with the widow this uncle and the widow against the widow. The widow was originally worried that there were too many protégés of their thousands of families in the court, and if they recklessly brought him down, I was afraid that the country would be in chaos. ”

When the lord of the country said this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he had spit out a tumor that had been hidden in his stomach for a long time. Smoke rises from the incense burner at the table, swirling among a large, root-like red coral, and then dissipates again.

"If Prime Minister Zuo is in prison, there will be no one who can take his place?" Dian Yinqi asked. Born in the dart guard battalion, he faintly felt that this country lord was a little strange.

"Prime Minister Zuo's surname is Shang, and his name is Zhong. You may not know that Shang is a small surname who moved into our country from abroad only a few decades ago, Shang Aiqing's family has been poor since he was a child, and he is talented, but he never relies on the gate lord of the Shi clan, and the widow is precisely because of his talent and style, so he was promoted to be the prime minister of Zuo to help the widow implement the new policy. He had no henchmen in the court. As far as the few people know, there are a few new ministers who support the new policy, but they are either not courageous or not qualified enough. You must know that the matter of reform is not trivial, and it is almost not possible at all. He said here and looked around, and finally stared at Su Yue's face.

Su Yue understood what he meant, and asked while playing with the ivory basket in his hand: "The lord of the country invited us to come, and said so much, what is the matter?"

The lord of the country first looked out, and then looked backwards, and then said: "You are not only distant guests, but also heroes, the good people of the country are in this calamity, and the heroes can save it! The widow's uncle and Wan only care about their own gains and losses, and trap our people in fire and water, and their crimes should be punished! Therefore, the widow implores all the heroes to remove these two evils for the widow. After the deed is completed, the widow is willing to send more than half of the country's territory!"

Su Yue said: "The gap between the lord and these two people is so deep, and the lord of the country also said that there are many protégés of the Wan clan, so he is not afraid of the suspicion of their henchmen, and the court will be chaotic at that time, how can it be good?"

The lord of the country said with a smile: "The general is thoughtful, when Shang Aiqing was in power, he persuaded me several times to use the law of the country to arrest and judge these two people, at that time, the widow always looked forward and backward, and suffered from gains and losses, so it caused today's situation." Now that Shang Aiqing is in prison, the widow has no credible person, just like a terminally ill person, normal medical skills can no longer be cured, the widow has to fight poison with poison, and give heavy medicine; this is one of them; second, although the widow is dull, he also knows the truth of killing chickens and monkeys, and these heroes are not from our country, even if they have doubts, they will not be able to grasp the handle of the widow. ”

"Lord Shang has been in prison for a long time, why doesn't the lord of the country wait for us to come before he prepares to do it?" Dian Yin asked.

"The hero doesn't know that this widowed uncle and Wan are guarded by masters. There is no such brave man around the widow, and the widow has heard that General Su and this ...... Liao...... Liao Daxia and this ...... The pawn guards are all heroes of the green forest, and they have the courage of ten thousand people, so they are specially invited to help. ”

Tong Xi said: "Help you, will you really fulfill your promise and seal half of our country?" The lord of the country smiled and was about to answer her, but Dian Yin gasped, pushed Tong Xi away and said loudly: "The lord of the country lives in the deep palace, and he is not from my eight counties, it is a little strange to know the identity of General Su, how can he know the two of us?"

didn't wait for the lord of the country to answer him, but a person who came out from behind the screen smiled heartily: "Tell him for my brother." "How do you know the details of Dian Yin and Liao Tingyun and others, please listen to the next breakdown.
