Jing Jian and Qin Feng glanced at each other, and Jing Jian said: "Back to the doctor, this first one, I have the merchant order of Wei State to Qin, and it can be transported to Qin State in the name of Wei State officials and merchants." The second thing, the Qin State will double the return after three years, and if there is a danger in the Zhou room here, the Qin State will resolutely serve the king. ”

Fan Yu pondered for a while, and sighed and said: "The government affairs of the Luoyang royal family, at present, only Taishi Yan and Fan Yu take care of it. The noble envoy has already seen that the royal city of Luoyang is already in decay and dilapidation, and a group of ministers have nothing to do, and the government is wasted. The arrival of your envoy is also an opportunity for the Zhou Room to cheer up. I will immediately inform the Taishi Yan rate, and tomorrow Fan Yu will accompany the noble envoy to meet the king of Zhou. ”

Meet King Zhou! Qin Feng's heart was shocked, in this world of great controversy, etiquette collapsed, but the nominal Son of Heaven was still Zhou Tianzi. In other words, he, Qin Feng, is about to meet the true Son of Destiny!

Jing Jian was also a little excited, and then the two got up and left.

After the small banquet, Fan Yu hurriedly went to Taishi Yan to discuss, and did not come back until the time of the lamp. Fan Yu said that Master Yan agreed to help Qin, but he was sick on the couch and couldn't see things, so Fan Yu took a look at the Luoyang Mansion Treasury before rushing back. Jing Jian bowed and expressed his gratitude.

Fan Yu said: "The Luoyang Treasury has hoarded more than 100,000 pieces of old weapons, 10,000 old chariots, and 150,000 grains. There are not many pieces of iron, only more than 10,000 bales, and there are only more than 13,000 bales of green salt. Taishi and Fan Yu's intentions, each sect will give half to the Qin State, how about it? ”

Jing Jian solemnly arched his hand and said: "My Qin State has always made a promise, and I will definitely live up to the royal family!" Fan Yu sighed gloomily and said with a wry smile: "As long as the Qin State can support the royal family in times of crisis, it will be enough." Today's King Zhou, what can he ask for? ”

On the fifth watch of the next day, Jing Jian and Qin Feng woke up to freshen up and dress properly, and prepared to enter the royal city with Fan Yu.

It was the first time for the two of them to meet the king of Zhou, and although they were courtiers of the Qin state, the Son of Heaven was still sacred and dignified in their hearts. He was so excited that he couldn't help but walk into the courtyard, only to see that the blue sky was like a waning moon, and the huge and lonely morning star was already shining in the white sky in the belly of the fish. Jing Jian was about to practice swordsmanship, but he saw his entourage head Hei Lin hurriedly walking over and said: "My lord, the old man of the doctor's family has passed the word, and the king of Zhou will not be able to meet until the time of the morning, please rest in peace." ”

Jing Jian was surprised: "Chenshi? How did it come to the hour? Hei Lin smiled: "But this week the king likes to sleep lazy?" Jing Jian rebuked in a low voice: "Hugh is talking nonsense, this is Luoyang." Hei Lin secretly grimaced and said, "Obey the orders of the lord, and I will go to prepare the carriage and horses." ”

It's no wonder that Jing Jian was surprised. Twelve hours of a day and a night, the beginning of the sub-hour, is the middle of the night; When the rooster begins to crow for the ugly, the dawn is the time of the day, the sun rises for the time, the breakfast time is the time of the day, the first half of the day is the time of the sun, the middle of the day is the noon, the day is the west for the time, the rice is the time of the Shen, the sunset is the time of the unitary, the first night is the time of the sun, and the people are set to fall asleep for the time.

Of the twelve hours, the hour is the most important. In all the barracks of the government offices, a day's work begins at the end of the day. The government offices, military camps, and even workshops and shops all check the number of people at the first moment of the hour, which is called "point Mao".

For the officials and monarchs of the national capital, in fact, it started much earlier. The so-called early dynasties generally go up and down at dawn. When encountering a monarch who is diligent in his work, it is even more common in the early dawn of the dawn. At least the monarchs of the Seven Warring States decided that no one dared to start meeting with their ministers until the end of the day.

Jing Jian knew that the new monarch of the Qin State could be seen at almost any time during the twelve hours, and he could also wake up when he fell asleep. Why did this Luoyang Emperor not deal with state affairs when he arrived?

In Jing Jian's view, although it is no longer possible for the Zhou family to rule Kyushu with the authority of the Son of Heaven, the land of Wangji is still at least equivalent to the size of a medium vassal state like the Song State.

How can it decay and decay to a chaotic state that is difficult to wake up from a big dream? It has become a habit for the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State to get up early and go to bed late, and if you want Jing Jian to go to bed at this time, you can't fall asleep anyway. He sighed and drew his sword to slash hard.

Qin Feng also received the news, and sighed leisurely, he still heard about Zhou Tianzi's incompetence during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and it was not too strange. After sighing, he continued to meditate and practice.

At the end of the day, the upper doctor Fan Yu came unhurriedly, invited Jing Jian and Qin Feng to have breakfast, and Fang each took a car to the royal city.

Luoyang Royal City is the palace area of the Son of Heaven in Luoyang City. When people say "Luoyang Wangcheng" outside Luoyang, they refer to the whole of Luoyang; Walking into Luoyang and saying "Wangcheng", that is the area of the palace of the Son of Heaven.

The palace of the Son of Heaven in Luoyang, with its independent red walls, is a complete inner city. Although the red walls have fallen off and the green tiles are already full of moss, the continuous palace complex still shimmers with bewildering brilliance in the sun, revealing the supreme nobility of the past in the infinite desolation and coldness.

It was already early hour, the gate in the center of the royal city was still closed, and outside the tall and deep doorway stood a row of listless red-clothed warriors, the bronze axes in their hands looking heavy and old. Seeing the two chariots coming, the soldiers rolled open the heavy gate of the royal city, and without any questioning, the chariots drowned into the deep royal city.

The palace in the royal city is majestic and splendid, but the atmosphere of desolation and ruin is blowing in the face. The huge white jade bricks on the ground had been shattered and dented everywhere, and swaying wild grass had grown between the cracks. In the wide square of the main hall, there are nine huge bronze tripods that symbolize the king's power, and the nests of birds on the ears are full of crows and birds. On the Dingjian Avenue where the courtiers entered and exited, the grass was also mossy and swaying.

At the end of the avenue, the main hall on the ninth-level white jade steps looks like a deserted castle, and through the eternal open door of the palace, you can vaguely see the huge bronze throne in the hall covered with cobwebs, and sometimes bats fly silently in the darkness. In the past, the temple of the Son of Heaven was filled with a faint and cold and dull and decaying atmosphere of death. Jing Jianhe couldn't help but tremble. Qin Feng was not affected much because of the murderous aura on his body.

"This week's royal ...... Ruined to this point, where is there still a little bit of the dragon qi of the Son of Heaven! Qin Feng shook his head and sighed silently. Indeed, he had seen the deserted scenes of Luoyang City several times on TV, but this time he was really immersed in the scene, and he still felt the breath of death.

The only sound is the sound of instrumental music coming from the side hall on the east side of the main hall. Fan Yu, who was always frowning, waved to Jing Jian and Qin Feng and jumped out of the car, and walked towards the east side hall. The area around the side hall is neat, there is no moss and grass, and a few big trees hugging together to shade a shade. There was no guard at the door, and Fan Yu walked in without shouting a loud number. Jing Jian and Qin Feng followed cautiously. The side hall is two rooms inside and outside, and there is a fine veil as green as jade in the middle. Jing Jian unconsciously raised his head, and was so surprised that he was nailed to the hall and couldn't move. Qin Feng also opened his mouth, looking confused.

There are still a few lamps lit in the jasper green yarn, which looks dim and dark and chaotic against the bright sunlight outside.

A huge figure dressed in embroidered gold and red, with long hair and a beard hanging down his chest, reclined on a luxurious couch. Obviously, he is the master of the royal city - King Zhou Xian.

To his right and left was a half-naked woman snuggling up to him, caressing the body of the huge figure like a baby. The huge figure is sleepy-eyed and motionless. There are also a few young girls in transparent gauze clothes who are singing and dancing lightly, and the snow-white flesh that is almost clearly visible is fluttering and writhing silently.

The musicians under the chimes also seemed to be asleep, and the rhythm of the music was relaxed, intermittent, and ethereal, like a gossamer in a dream...... This piece of gaudy and extravagant scenery really made Jing Jian stunned.

"This ..... The Zhou royal family is so ruined, does King Zhou still have the heart to do this? Qin Feng looked demented, accustomed to the diligence of a generation of Ming Jun Qin Xiaogong, and then looked at what King Zhou had done, spending all day and wine, Qin Feng only felt sick for a while. If the king of Zhou is like this, no wonder the Zhou family has decayed so far!

Fan Yu just frowned tightly and beckoned to a dancer, who staggered out of the green veil on the floor.

"How many hours has it been?" Fan Yu asked loudly.

The dancer stretched her long slender waist and yawned and whispered, "Three days and three nights? What about the outside? Day or night? ”

Fan Yu's eyebrows jumped, pushed the dancer away, and walked straight in. The dancer was pushed, and her body lay on the wide threshold like cotton, and the wind blew a light veil, leaking out of her thighs.

But no one here paid attention to her, and it seemed that even her desires were drowned out by endless drunken dreams. As soon as the dancers fell to the ground, all the concubines and musicians in the hall were all like magic, and they fell asleep on the spot together, full of sleep and snoring. Fan Yu walked into the inner hall, and the breeze brought up by the rapid pace made the dim flame of the lamp sway. He quickly blew out the lamp, lifted the green veil of the inner temple door, and the light of the day suddenly appeared in the side hall!

Fan Yu walked to the side of the huge figure, arched his hand and said in a loud voice: "My king, please get up-"

King Zhou Xian was awakened, rubbed his eyes and said in surprise: "Oh, Doctor, how to enter the palace on the third watch?" ”

"When my king opened his eyes, it was already the hour." Fan Yu pointed to the sunlight outside the window and said loudly.

"Really?" King Zhou Xian rubbed his eyes again in surprise, let out a long yawn, shook his head, and said, "Why is it dawn just after falling asleep?" Oh, doctor, what's wrong with you? Could it be that the nations are at war again? If you beat it, let people beat it, what do you have to do with me? ”

"What do you have to do with it? This week, the king no longer regards himself as a king, how can he let the princes of the world treat him as a king. Qin Feng sighed and sighed.

"Enlighten my king: The alliance of the six countries intends to divide Qin, and the Zhou family is in great danger."

"You Fan Yu, whether it is Qin or war, what is the danger in Luoyang?"

"My king doesn't know that the state of Chu and Korea raised troops to attack Qin, and they had to pass through the Sanchuan main road, and they all wanted to destroy Zhou under false pretenses." Fan Yu said eagerly.
