Chapter 48: The Lord of a Nation

Teenage little palace maid, the age of the flower season. They are all young and beautiful, delicate and delicate, like flowers waiting to bloom after the rain. The ladies of the palace lined up in a line of ten, each dragging a silver tray covered with a red cloth in their hands, and their steps were brisk but small, and they came silently from the other side of the long corridor, their clothes fluttering like butterflies fluttering smartly. Although the rules in the palace restrain their behavior, they can't tie up their youthful and active hearts, and at this moment they don't speak to each other, their steps are neat, but their faces are full of light smiles, and they can't hide their pink cheeks.

The ladies moved quickly, but when they were about to reach the entrance of the main hall, they were blocked by a giant. The palace maid who led the team glanced up, then hurriedly bowed her head and bowed slightly, and shouted: "General Zhixin." ”

The general bowed slightly.

So the palace maid walked around the tall man, and the palace maid behind followed suit, curtling her knees in front of Zhixin and walking around again. When they came to the gate of the canopy hall, they rushed in and disappeared from view.

The rain is getting heavier, and the entire Kyushu continent is shrouded in humidity at this time.

Bean-sized raindrops splash crystal water on the roof and ground. General Zhixin was still wearing the heavy armor he had worn when he went on the expedition, which made him look even bigger, as big as the rockery in the back garden of Qingfang Palace. The wide and deep corridor could not be covered, and the rain rolled down from the glazed red tiles, dripping from the corners of the eaves, and falling on the shoulders of the armor on the left side of Zhixin.

The helmet was taken off and clamped under the armpit, revealing the man's resolute and rough facial features. The bridge of the nose is straight, the facial lines are angular, and the eyes are firm. Zhixin's expression was solemn, and he stood motionless at the gate of the palace, waiting for the summons.

Not long after, an old waiter with a white beard walked out of the hall. The waiter seemed to be very old, his face was wrinkled and heaped with a heap of posture, but he was not slow to move. The old waiter, dressed in a standard male gray palace uniform, faced the general in armor. From a distance, under the eaves of the red palace corridor through the vast rain curtain, there are two blurred black dots, one large and one small.

The old waiter bowed his hand: "The lord of the country invites the general to come in." ”

General Zhixin, who had been standing still, woke up and hurriedly replied with a simple salute. The old attendant retreated to the palace first, and Zhixin brushed the excess water beads off his shoulders with one palm before stepping into the palace gate.

Huagai Hall is one of the main halls in Qingfang Palace, mostly used for private deliberations in the back hall of the lord of the country, it is the same as other palaces in Qingfang Palace, the magnificent atmosphere is splendid.

The lord of the country is only more than 100 years old, and for ordinary people, this age is already dying or already loess. But as the head of a nation, this is an extremely young stage. He also has hundreds of years of experience in learning, accumulating, and improving the governance of a country. Moreover, the better the country is governed, the longer the ruler and the officials and ministers of the current dynasty will live. This is one of the heavenly paths of the Kyushu continent.

Kyushu has a national for: delusion.

The Lord of the Innocent Kingdom is one of the most legendary monarchs in the world of Kyushu, and he is simply the best gift and blessing that God has given to this country. It is a blessing for a country to rule for a long time, and the ruler of a vain country is said to have reigned for tens of thousands of years. Although I don't know if it's true or not, because everyone remembers it clearly, but the country of delusion does have a solid foundation, and it is rich and peaceful, and it is the strongest country on the Kyushu continent.

Now, the lord of Qingguo in the Huagai Hall is only a young man in his twenties from the appearance. In fact, the lord of the country and the white-bearded old waiter who accompanied him were born in the same year. The old waiter served the lord of the country as a palace man, and also extended his lifeline, but because of his low rank, he could not maintain the aging of his appearance. Also receiving the protection of this heavenly way are the courtiers of the court, who assisted the lord of the country to govern the world, thus making great merits. There are also martial arts practitioners like the blue wolf, whose arduous cultivation makes them proudly maintain their vitality and live a long life.

The higher the official position and the higher the martial arts, the more so.

When Zhixin walked into the hall, he saw that the young lord of the country was surrounded by several adults of the Ministry of Rites, and on the red pear blossom chair next to him sat a blank white speaker. Just now, the ten palace maids stood in a row with plates, and on the trays were various jade samples offered from all over the place. The adults of the Ministry of Rites were explaining, and the young lord of the country was carefully inspecting. Seeing the favorite, he reached out and picked up the jade blocks, held them in the palm of his hand, and felt their texture.

Warm jade smoke.

The ice species is clear.

The blood jade is flawless.

Emerald turquoise.

Halfway through the sight, the lord of the country suddenly raised his head and beckoned to the general standing by the door. The general took three steps forward and stopped. Although the lord of the country is also very tall, his height is different from ordinary people, and he is much taller and unusually strong, which often puts pressure on the person opposite. So he stood in the right position, kneeling on his knees, his upper body prostrate on the ground, and his forehead pressed against his hands to make a standard formal salute to the lord of the country.

"My great general, get up, get up. Let's take a look at which jade is better? "The young lord of the country has a cheerful and outgoing personality, and he can maintain a majestic image above the court, but he can't maintain it at all when he goes down to court, and he is happy with a child's heart. The palace maids all knew the heart of the lord, and they all lowered their heads and curled their lips to barely hide their smiles.

On the tray are all kinds of polished, unpolished, rough, round, different sizes, or warm, or hard, different colors of jade.

The lord of the country asked casually, and General Zhixin stood up and stepped forward, looked at the ten types of jade on the tray very carefully, and then replied deeply: "The minister is clumsy, and he really can't see the good or the bad. "To the rough man, these are just stones of a different color.

The young lord nodded, not caring about the overly straightforward answer that seemed to be a letter to the wood. The Lord of the Kingdom turned his head and continued the discussion with the professionals of the Ministry of Rites, but he did not seem satisfied with his current choice.

"There is still a year before the founding of the People's ********Republic of China, and there is enough time. If the lord of the country feels that these items are not good enough, his subordinates will let the various places send them better, and then allow the lord to choose carefully. Seeing that the lord of the country was not satisfied, the chief of the Ministry of Rites made a remark.

At this time, the Yanshi, who had been sitting on the side as a wallflower, suddenly retorted: "Your lord, you have not been on the throne for 50 years, and the foundation is not stable. It is probably inappropriate to hold such a large-scale celebration of the founding of the country now. Please reconsider. The teacher looked at the young lord of the country blankly.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites present all looked at each other, and they did not understand why the master of Yan said this.

The people of the whole country know that the young lord of the country is not an arrogant and wasteful person, and as a young man as the head of a country in recent years, he is simply excessive. All the decorations and ornaments in the palace were left by the previous dynasty and the former king, and he did not spend any money to change them. On the day of his centennial, he simply entertained important courtiers, and his daily expenses were as simple as possible.

In short, the young lord of the country is a good lord who is frugal and wise.
