Chapter 45: The Palace of the Son of Heaven
Tradition is a very powerful force in many cases.
This power is capable of transcending time and space, transcending authority, transcending personal charisma, and so on. Just imagine that the old Ying family has ruled in Inuqiu for hundreds of years, and suddenly there is a change of people, and everyone will have questions. Don't say that you rule Xituo, it's good to stay alive.
When Zhao Zhou said this, Yingqi didn't say anything anymore.
"This?" Ying Qi looked at Zhao Zhou suspiciously.
Zhao Zhou continued: "Although I am also an official of the imperial court, I know it very well in my heart. Even if you give me a courtesy, I will not be able to convince the public! I also ask the eldest son not to shirk, I will wait for this to enter the palace to meet the Son of Heaven, and ask the Son of Heaven to canonize the eldest son as the doctor of Xitui and take charge of the affairs of Inuqiu as soon as possible. ”
Since Zhao Zhou has said this, Yingqi, Yingkai and others have nothing to say, so they have to agree. After bathing and changing clothes, the three of them walked towards the sacred palace of the Zhou royal family.
After all, Zhao Zhou was the dog hill order canonized by the royal family, and after the ceremony, the royal guards soon heard back, the Son of Heaven was changing clothes, and Zhao Zhou and others were summoned after going to court.
Ho Jing Zhou Palace.
"Woo woo woo ---"
"Woo woo woo ---"
Drums sounded, and the ministers walked slowly into the palace hall.
"Spread Zhao Zhou, Yingqi, and Yingkai to the upper hall---"
In the loud transmission of the inner servant, Zhao Zhou, Yingqi, and Yingkai walked into the palace hall.
For Zhao Zhou, maybe this is not the first time to enter the palace hall, but for Ying Kai, it is definitely the first time, full of curiosity and freshness.
Although the father and son were full of anger in their chests at this time, when Yingkai walked into the majestic palace hall for the first time, his steps were still a little messy.
"They are Qin people, why do they all look so rustic?" Seeing Yingkai and the others walking into the main hall, the ministers of the royal family couldn't help but whisper.
"How can the Northwest raise horses without being rustic? I heard that the Qin people were no different from Rong Di, they were all barbarians who drank blood, and later the Son of Heaven remembered that he was pitiful and could raise horses, and canonized their leader as the doctor of Xitui, and then became the courtiers of the royal family. In fact, he is still a barbarian in his bones. ”
"Well---, you're right, look at their swarthy clothes, how dirty they are! Over the years, they haven't changed much at all, so why don't they know to clean up themselves? ”
"Okay, let's not talk about it. They are about to meet the Son of Heaven. ”
......
Although the ministers were talking in a whisper, the young Yingkai could hear it clearly, disdainful, mocking, sarcastic, and watching the Qin people make a fool of themselves.
Sad, slapped in the face, self-esteem hurt.
Although Ying Kai knew that the royal family and the Central Plains country looked down on the Qin people before, when he heard it today, he was even more impressed.
If it was in Dog Hill, Yingkai would have reasoned with them a long time ago, but this is Haojing, the palace of the Son of Heaven, and Yingkai can't tolerate a hairy boy who hangs from the west to spread wild.
Although I was angry in my heart, I could only endure it.
Under the gaze of the ministers of the Zhou royal family, Ying Kai and others finally came to the front of Zhou Tianzi.
"Minister Zhao Zhou pays a visit to the king."
"Yingqi pays homage to the king."
"Win open to the king."
"Flat ---" A low voice came from above the main hall.
Ying Kai could hear that the voice of the Son of Heaven sitting above was not high, and he was still a little old, so it seemed that he should not be young.
Can the son of heaven be young?
You must know that at this time, Zhou Tianzi Ji Jing has been in power for almost forty years. Even if he succeeded to the throne at the age of ten, he would be fifty years old today.
What's more, he didn't succeed to the throne at the age of ten, and his unassuming father had been on the run for fourteen years.
For fourteen years, this kid has been waiting so hard!
Therefore, when Yingkai and his party came to Hojing, Zhou Tianzi Ji Jing was already over sixty years old at this time.
At the age of sixty, Zhou Tianzi is still alive and well, but his grandfather Qin Zhong has long since died at the hands of Rong Di.
People can't live better than people, who makes Zhou Tianzi's family have the gene for longevity? Who makes a family well-born? Who makes people's lives peaceful and abundant?
Hey---, it's all my own fault!
I will blame myself, and I will not blame others.
It seems that they are still looking for problems from the Qin people themselves.
After Ying Kai and the others got up, Ji Jing, the Son of Heaven, also looked at His Royal Highness Ying Qi and the others in a little surprise.
It looks so individual.
Black--
Coarse--
Strong---
Not only is it ugly in appearance, but the voice is also ugly, muffled, coarse, and heavy.
None of this is the most important thing.
It's not your fault that it's ugly, it's your fault that you don't know how to wear.
They all look like wild beasts, and they have to wear black clothes, which are like briquettes, and they are wearing black clothes, and they can't see their appearances.
Could it be that you Qin people regard ugliness as beauty?
Hey--, why don't these people have any merit at all?
No wonder the first king wanted to reward them to a poor place like Longxi where he even wanted to scrape out two taels of oil, and there was a reason for this.
Although Zhou Tianzi Ji Jing looked down on the Qin people from the bottom of his heart, considering that the Qin people were also subjects under his rule, he still had to give a little face.
Otherwise, how can you make yourself different?
"You're waiting for the Inuqiu Qin people?" It's time to speak after seeing enough, so Ji Jing, the son of heaven, asked with the dissatisfaction in his heart.
"Ministers and other official dog Qiu Qin people." Zhao Zhou replied.
Among Zhao Zhou, Yingqi, and Yingkai, only Zhao Zhou is an official of the imperial court, and of course he has to answer the questions of the Son of Heaven.
Fortunately, Ying Kai just took this opportunity to take a good look at the ruler of the Zhou royal family.
Hmph--, Zhou Tianzi Ji Jing, I didn't see how special it was, his face was yellow, slightly fat, although he was sitting, but Ying Kai could feel that he should not be very tall, medium height, not as tall as himself.
There is also the ruler of the Zhou royal family, with a gray beard, and his age should be not much different from his grandfather.
Hey--, disappointed, I thought that all the sons of heaven were handsome and mighty, tall and mighty, but it turned out to be nothing more than that.
Ying thought to herself happily.
At this time, Zhou Tianzi, who was sitting on it, spoke.
"Oh---" The Son of Heaven Ji Jing breathed a long sigh of relief, although Zhao Zhou was also an official of the imperial court, but those were all officials appointed when the Son of Heaven was born, and it was the first time that the Son of Heaven Ji Jing had seen it since he came to power.
Looking at these three Qin people, the Son of Heaven Ji calmed the disdain in his heart, and said in a gentle tone: "What is the important thing that you are waiting for to come to Hojing?" ”
What's the matter?
Ying Qi understood that until today, those who helped to pass on the message to him had not told the Son of Heaven the true situation of the Qin people, otherwise how could the Son of Heaven have such doubts?
Faced with the questioning of the Son of Heaven, Yingqi and the others finally had the opportunity to state their grievances. But he couldn't speak at this time, because it wasn't his turn yet.
"Qi my king, the reason why Weichen brought the two sons of the Ying family to Hojing today is really because the current Inuqiu is on the verge of extinction." Zhao Zhou replied.
Oh?
In just over half a year, Inugaoka is facing extinction?
After listening to Zhao Zhou's words, all the ministers present couldn't help but be taken aback.
