Chapter 195: The Golden Hall

Now that the envoys of the four counties have come to Puhua, it is more convenient to understand their attitudes.

So after a few days of arrangement, the golden hall of the governor's palace finally set up a banquet.

Unlike the Vienna Golden Hall, which was famous all over the world in later generations, the Golden Hall of the Governor's Palace was taken by Li Chengji. The interior is all in the style of the former Sadr. Mainly gold, supplemented by silver, everywhere furnishings, are revealing indescribable luxury.

It is for this reason that Li Chengji vividly named it the Golden Hall.

is also the previous Sadr, who has a luxurious temperament. In order to show his status, he ordered the construction of a palace of great luxury. But financial resources are limited! The Lord of a city alone cannot do that. He narrowed down the scope to a one-room area, and used all the treasures that the family had collected for generations to decorate.

In the end, under the accumulation of a large number of treasures, such a luxurious place was created. According to the palace people of the former Sadr Palace, before and after, this golden hall melted at least tens of thousands of dinars of gold dust used for decoration.

Coupled with those gold and silver utensils, it is completely immeasurable.

When it was built, al-Sadr regarded it as a treasure. Therefore, it will only be used on particularly important birthdays or religious holidays.

At other times, it is strictly forbidden for outsiders to enter. Once, a servant accidentally broke a vase inside and was immediately stoned by Sadr.

The tragic appearance of death is still fresh in the memory of the palace people in the Governor's Palace. For this golden hall, it is also extremely careful. On weekdays, it is even more circular.

After this, Sanjar drove out al-Sadr and captured the al-Sadr Palace. But the objects in the Golden Hall were not tampered with. Not only that, but they also added gold and silver utensils, treasures and antiques looted from the city.

As a result, the Golden Hall was not only not looted, but also more magnificent than before. Because of his affection, Sanjar lives here every day. In the evening, a banquet was held to entertain the leaders of the rebel army.

The night and night sheng flute made the golden hall usher in a rare hustle and bustle.

It's just that that's a thing of the past! Sadr and Sanjar were also burned by the blazing fire, and their bones were gone. This hall, which is poured with their countless treasures, is also cheaper than Li Chengji, the new owner.

But to be honest, Li Chengji doesn't like it. Because he felt that this golden hall was too public. The whole object is dominated by brilliant gold. There are occasional silverware, but also mostly inconspicuous tableware. Even the walls are painted golden.

Candles are lit and the whole hall is lit up.

So when he entered for the first time, Li Chengji's eyes were a little painful because of the strong light. So much so that it was hard for him to imagine how Sanjar could sleep peacefully in such a place.

It's like being under the sun, after all! Even with his eyes closed, he was stabbed uncomfortably by the bright light.

But as a governor, you have to show yourself. Li Chengji admits that he doesn't have that kind of domineering spirit. Coupled with the limitation of age, I can't see how high the majesty is. It can only be revealed through external objects.

This golden hall is the best external object.

In fact, when the six departments were first set up, Li Chengji also wanted to demolish this place and use it as a court discussion. Because this place is large enough space, it is often empty, and it is really wasteful. And the gold dust inside can be scraped off, and more weapons can be added to the cathars.

It was only later that he was persuaded by Di Wan of various ministries and secretaries of various departments to dispel this idea.

In retrospect, it was a wise move.

In the end, in this era, the upper class of society is extremely luxurious. It's both a luxurious attitude to life and a status symbol for the upper class. So even if Li Chengji doesn't want to agree, at some point, he must do something.

It's not a compromise, it's a way to seek recognition. is like a local tyrant in later generations, who loves to hang a gold chain around his neck to show his identity.

Otherwise, it is too shabby and not only despised by outsiders. was also mistaken by his own people that he had no family background.

After the spread spread, the rule of the Governor's Palace was also relatively unfavorable.

After all, human nature has a vanity side. It's just that many times, depending on the change of the environment, it will be more or less severe.

As a superior person, he naturally can't be worse than others in this face. Otherwise, so many pairs of eyes are staring, and it will be a joke to spread out.

This is the reason why emperors have not allowed their courtiers to exceed the system for generations.

Lee Seung-ji also used this place on important occasions in accordance with Sadr's rules. But since he entered the Governor's Palace, there have only been three times. One was to celebrate the defeat of Khorezm's army, the other was to celebrate the non-annexation of Na Kho Sha to Khorasan Province, and the most recent was to take the city of Amu.

The reason for this is that Lee Seung-ji does not like to hold banquets. After all, it costs money and labor, and is too extravagant and wasteful. It's not that he doesn't want to save, it's that the specifications of the Golden Hall are there. It's too deductive, but it looks too nondescript.

Second, the opening of the Golden Hall must have enough opportunities. Like the newly opened land, you are eligible to use the Golden Hall.

But today, in order to feast the envoys of the four counties. Li Chengji specially ordered people to restart the Golden Hall, set up a banquet, and entertained guests.

I saw the sound of silk and bamboo in the hall, endlessly. A full house of guests. In addition to the envoys of the four counties, there are also the ministers of Khorasan Province, Diwan, and the secretaries of various departments. In addition, some emissaries of the Western Qarakhanid and Khorezm, as well as well-known people in Khorasan Province, the hall was full of absence.

Most of Li Chengji's brothers also came. At the moment, they are lined up in various seats, and there is a lot of wine and laughter. Li Chengji sat at the top and looked at the guests in the hall with a smile.

"Third brother! Fourth brother, I salute you! Xiao Ali sat down and said loudly. Since the Peach Blossom Khan of the Western Qarakhanid paid ten times the previous taxes, he sent his son to Balasagon as a proton.

and bribed the officials of the Great Liao Dynasty with a lot of money, so that many people in the court spoke for them. So in the end, Da Liao forgave the Ottomans' transgression.

However, there is still a small episode in this. That is, Osman asked the Great Liao Sage for instructions, saying that he wanted to marry the princess Hun Hu of the Great Liao.

It's just that the princess's family affairs are not simple. And because Osman is a Muslim and the princess is a Buddhist, the saint of Daliao, Yelu Zhilugu, directly rejected Osman's relatives.

It was also Osman's mind, which had an ulterior purpose.

After all, everyone knows that there is only one princess in the Great Liao Sage. If anyone marries, he will become the son-in-law of Da Liao. In the future, he will be very sure of fighting for the throne of Da Liao.

In this regard, the whole Liao disagrees.

The marriage between the Heavenly Family and the Li Family was also led to this.

These have little to do with Xiao Alihe! However, the Ottomans were forgiven by the Great Liao, and the situation in Xunskan was completely stabilized. He was allowed by Xiao Pengzhen to go to Puhua to meet Li Chengji.
