Seven days later.

Because of Dayu's god-like identity, Xiong Huai fasted for seven days in the palace of Huiji, and then took the ministers and the army to the Huiji Mountain outside the city to worship Dayu.

On the morning of this day, after Xiong Huai met with the ministers, he was about to take the ministers to Huiji Mountain, and before he left the palace, he heard a noisy sound from the city.

After Xiong Huaiwang's car left Miyagi, through the car window, he saw that there were people on both sides of the road, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Then, Xiong Huai raised the curtain slightly, and saw that both sides of the road were full of Yue people dressed up, and the people who were saluting, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Eight days ago, when he came to the meeting, he didn't see a single person on the road. As a result, now as soon as the people heard that he was going to sacrifice Dayu, all the people came out.

I have to say that this sacrificial activity is really a great good act that determines people's hearts, and it is no wonder that the world says that the major events of the country are sacrificed in Rong.

Needless to say, the most important thing in the military is the ritual, and the rituals extend the norms and norms of behavior, and the norms derive the law, and the law is the foundation of governing the country.

And that's not all!

At this time, Xiong Huai lowered the curtain and a smile appeared on his face.

People have three questions: Who am I? Where am I from? Where am I going?

In the same way, a nation made up of people has three fundamental things: past, present, and future.

And the sacrificial activities symbolize the past of a country, or the history of a country.

The longer the country, the longer the past, the stronger its cohesion.

The grandeur of the past, the love and hatred of the past, and the twists and turns in history can easily arouse longing.

When I knew that my ancestors had been humiliated in the past, I felt empathy, and I hated to lift a three-foot sword to sweep away the injustice for my ancestors. When I knew that my ancestors had taken revenge, I was also happy in my heart, and when I knew that my ancestors had let the king of the country come to the court, I felt proud in my heart.

In this way, the past is the innate factor that unites people's hearts, and it is self-evident and self-evident.

People are the cornerstone of the country, and history is also the cornerstone of the country, and the longer the history, the heavier the cornerstone of the country, and the deeper the foundation.

A newly established country is the time when the country is most likely to collapse, and the slightest twist and turn can easily destroy the country.

And the longer a state is established, the less likely it is to die due to sudden accidents.

And the most splendid chapter in the history of a country, the brightest shining point in the past, is undoubtedly the heroes of the country, they are the pride of everyone in that country.

Praising him will make everyone in the country proud, and belittling him will make everyone angry.

For a country that has perished, it has no present and no future, and the only thing he still has is the past.

The future is illusory, the present is confused, and only the past is real.

Sacrificing his past heroes undoubtedly resonates with them the most, and allows them to talk about and get their approval the most.

Therefore, sacrificial activities are the only magic weapon to unite people's hearts.

Just like now, although the Yue people are very suspicious of the Chu people and are also afraid of the Chu people, when they heard that the king of Chu was going to sacrifice the ancestors of the Yue people, Dayu, even if they had all kinds of dissatisfaction with the king of Chu in their hearts, they still walked out of their homes, came out to watch the ceremony, and came out to find out.

The carriage moved slowly, and the royal carriage, escorted by the army, soon left Huiji City and went straight to Huiji Mountain.

On the road, Xiong Huai couldn't help but feel strange when he saw the endless stream of people on both sides of the road through the car window.

There aren't so many people in Huiji City, right? Why are there so many people outside the city?

Thinking about it, Xiong Huai called softly to the people serving outside the car: "Please assassinate Shi Ling to see the widow." ”

"Yui."

Soon, Xiong Huai looked at Chen Zhen, who had just gotten into the car, and asked, "Assassin Shiling, what's going on with the surrounding Yue people, how can there be so many people?" ”

Chen Zhen replied with a smile: "The king doesn't know, in the seven days of the king's fasting, the surrounding Yue people heard that the king wanted to sacrifice Dayu, so they rushed to Huiji Mountain from all directions, wanting to see the grand occasion of the sacrifice.

If Sima hadn't seen the situation badly and blocked the gate of Huiji City in advance, and forbade people from other places to enter the city, I'm afraid that Huiji would have been overcrowded. ”

"Ugh!" Xiong Huai chuckled, and then said happily: "Okay, good, it seems that something big has happened." ”

······

Huiji Mountain.

Xiong Huai in order to express his respect for Dayu, especially two prisons to worship Dayu, after the final blessing ceremony was completed, Xiong Huai turned to look at the ministers behind, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "The widow came to the meeting for almost ten days, these days, the widow has been hearing that the people of Yue Di suspect that the widow patrols Jiangdong this time, is to migrate the people of Yue, and some people even say that the widow led the army to enslave the people of Yuedi, and even to slaughter the people.

This kind of appalling and ridiculous rumor, the widow doesn't know who spread it, but even if the widow is more brutal than the king of the scum, he can't do this kind of evil act of slaughtering the country. ”

After a pause, Xiong Huai continued: "Then someone has to ask, since the widow is not here for this, why did he come to Jiangdong?"

Now, the widow told you that the widow came to Jiangdong this time, and the main purpose is two, one is to admire Dayu's deeds, and come to Huiji Mountain to worship Dayu, and now, this purpose has been completed. ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai looked at the Yuedi nobles in the crowd, and then continued: "This second purpose is that Jiangdong is newly attached, and the ministers and people do not know the virtue of the widow, so the widow came here to walk in Jiangdong for the benevolence of the widow, so that the people of Jiangdong can also bathe in the benevolence of the widow. ”

“···” Yue Di Xungui looked at King Chu in surprise.

The king of Chu has been in Jiangdong for more than a month, and they have not yet felt the benevolence of the king of Chu, but they have indeed felt the majesty and cruelty of the king of Chu.

Not long ago, Yuedi Xungui was half wiped out by the King of Chu, so frightened that they didn't even dare to go out of the gate, so they could only stay at home honestly and be a man!

If it weren't for the King of Chu announcing the closure of the assassination case, if it weren't for the King of Chu saying that he was going to sacrifice Dayu, I'm afraid they would still be staying at home now, and they wouldn't dare to go out.

Could this be the benevolence of the King of Chu? Or is this the benevolence of the King of Chu to the Yue people?

At this time, Xiong Huai saw that Yue Di Xungui did not react at all, knowing that they were still suspicious.

So, he continued: "Maybe you have to ask, what is the benevolence of the widow when he has been in Jiangdong for so long?" Now, the widow can tell you in front of Dayu and in front of the gods of heaven and earth that the widow will do two things when he comes to Jiangdong this time, in order to let the fathers and brothers in Jiangdong also bathe in the benevolence of the widow. ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai smiled, and then raised his voice and said loudly: "First, in order to spread the style of governing the country by virtue to all parts of the country, the widow is now issuing an edict, the twenty-six counties in Jiangdong, each county and county Yin must promote morality, benevolence and filial piety within one month, and the widow will recommend governing the country by virtue and calling on the people to practice morality, and they will not hesitate to reward."

Second...

After a pause, Xiong Huai looked at the nobles of Yuedi and was not very excited, so he said in a louder voice: "In order to express the impartiality of the widow to the people of Yuedi, in order to serve the sages of Yuedi for the country, and in order not to let the wild have sages, the widow decided that each county must raise a virtuous person within two months." At the same time, all the nobles with titles in Jiangdong must recommend one person.

After two months, the widow will be evaluated in the Huiji City, and according to the results of the evaluation, he will be given an official position as appropriate. Qing, doctor, county guard, county Yin, as long as they are able to equip them, the widow will not hesitate to hold official positions.

It's the same as the last time the widow did in Yingdu. ”
