Although it has become an enemy country, Xianyang is still full of Chu style, and there is not much difference in the clothes of the courts of the two countries. From the plain dark clothes of Huayang Palace, to the red Yan Di that she repeatedly asked her to try on, to the primary color of linen worn at the funeral, and then to the rough leather clothes sent by the Qiang people, the current Mi Xuan is wearing a edge clothes, and then Heng Xuan.

The color of the clothes is black and red, noble and elegant. Sitting in the Chu palace in clothes that can only be worn by queens, even if he was mentally prepared, it made Mi Xuan feel at a loss. When Xiong Jing came in, although the palace maid whispered to her, she still finished saluting.

"Stand down." Xiong Jing's eyes looked directly at Mi Xuan. Her complexion was originally white, but now she wears a black dress, the edge of the black dress is wrapped with red edges, and under the background of red and black, the whole person becomes as crystal as jade.

"It's not good." Men have crowns, and women only have the first clothes. The most honorable person in the first service is 'deputy', and the second is 'second'. The former is similar to the wigs of later generations, with 'pair' and 'cover', woven and covered on the head, and then inserted horizontally on the jade flute, and then tied on the flute (Jia: similar to the step shake of the Empress Qin). 'The gentleman grows old together, and the second lady wears no more makeup than this', and the 'second' is also a wig, and the didi is also, which is not covered on the head, but is joined with the original hair to make the bun higher.

After a few months of getting along, Xiong Jing is familiar with every inch of Mi Xuan's body, and so does her hair. He could recognize the hairs that were the 'times'. Thinking that these 'times' were probably cut out by the torture, he had some psychological disorders.

Seeing that Xiong Jing said that it was not good, Qi Xuan couldn't help but be stunned, at this time the man had already picked her up who was about to salute, kissed her on the side of the ear and said, "People are very beautiful." ”

The two were so intimate, the temple maid who retreated to the side covered her mouth and smiled when she saw this, and Mi Xuan, who heard the laughter, hurriedly got out of Xiong Jing's arms and said, "The king can't be like this, the concubine ......."

When she was on the sailboat, she was still laughing and jumping, and as soon as she entered Yingdu Xiongjing, she found that she seemed to be a different person, becoming taciturn and restrained everywhere. Xiong Jing didn't let her break free, but looked into her eyes and asked, "Are you afraid?" ”

"I ......" Xiong Jing's words hit Mi Xuan's heart. She is really afraid, afraid that the Empress Dowager Zhao will hate her, afraid that the ministers of the DPRK and China will criticize her, and afraid that the streets and alleys will talk irresponsible ....... was 'captive' by Xiong Jing like this, and she didn't feel it on the way, but when she entered the Chu Palace, she found that she was a person, a lonely person.

"I'm scared." Xiong Jing said softly. "I'm afraid that time will go back three months ago, I'm afraid that I won't be able to find you in the wind and snow, I'm afraid that you will be the concubine of King Qin, I'm afraid that you and I can only meet in Huangquan." Xiong Jing said that he was afraid, he was really afraid.

"But the queen mother, and the courtiers," Mi Xuan gave up breaking free and let the man hold her.

"The queen mother has already allowed you to marry into the Chu Palace." Xiong Jing only said the first half of the sentence, not the second half. "The courtiers don't have to worry, the state of Chu is not the state of Qin, the doctors are never disobedient, the soldiers have always been rebellious, they only submit to the brave."

The first half of the man's sentence made Mi Xuan breathe a sigh of relief, and at this time she broke free from her embrace, and said: "The concubine makes the king worry and displeased, and the concubine is wrong, please forgive the king." ”

"The queen is not right." Xiong Jing's actions made Xiong Jing frown, and he was teaching her how to be a qualified queen along the way. "Why is it sinful not to love and cherish the queen and the queen?"

"The concubine displeased the king, and the concubine is guilty." Xiong Jing's words moved Mi Xuan, but the teaching of female virtue made her even more guilty.

"Alas!" Xiong Jing shook his head. Mi Xuan is not only the queen, but will also be the queen mother in the future. Nude makes her obedient, but Nude will make her not educate the prince and princess well. Seeing that Mi Xuan didn't understand his intentions, he whimpered and sighed: "People! Know yourself. ”

Aristotle IV read Chinese books that were translated into Greek, but what he didn't know was that Xiong Jing had been reading the original Greek texts. Of course, what Xiong Jing needs to understand is not the Greek political system, or even Greek philosophy, but the theology and mythology of Western countries.

The Spiritual Religion of Chu is only a primitive and slightly modified polytheistic religion, and it is far from enough to change it into a monotheistic religion by relying only on the existing witchcraft and just a few years. Primitive religion or primitive theology is the origin of all civilizations, which is the reflection of the thinking of mankind in the most ignorant period, which summarizes all things in heaven and earth with the most crude reason, and reduces the unknown to God.

The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise. It is almost the same material world, but each ethnic group has a theological construct that is similar in appearance but completely different in spirit, and these spirits naturally reflect the thinking characteristics of different ethnic groups, and it is these thinking characteristics that determine the future of the ethnic group. As a spiritual cultivator of the Chu State, Xiong Jing thought: Since genes can be optimized, can these thinking traits also be optimized?

Greek theology gave birth to Greek philosophy, and Greek philosophy produced wise men like Aristotle IV. Since he is a wise man, of course, he pursues wisdom rather than gods, and this is the reason why Xiong Jing never asks him for advice. It's like there's no way to ask a citizen of the French Republic about the Duke of Burgundy. First, he may not understand it at all, and second, he may lash out.

Xiong Jing reassured his queen that she should know thyself, and Aristotle IV was standing on top of the court of Zhangtai Palace, watching the confessor lead a great assassin to the temple.

The Qin Palace is already majestic, and the Zhangtai Palace is the most magnificent among the palaces. But all the palace rooms are built on the rammed earth platform, and only when you go up the stairs can you enter the hall, and finally you can enter the court. Yan Zhao's rammed earth platform is only more than one zhang, Chu Palace is high and beautiful, and it is only two zhang, and Zhangtai Palace is more than three zhang high. The steps of the hall are not to be walked, but even if you look at it, you will be dazzled.

The confessor was used to running up and down, without any respite, Jing Ke and Lang Zhong, who went to the temple with a sword, sweated slightly, but the servant holding the wooden letter did not breathe or sweat, but his face was pale. As soon as he entered the Ming Hall and passed through the big room, Huo Ran saw that all the hundreds of courtiers in the court had looked over, and Feng Muhan's hands trembled a little.

The servant trembled, and the courtier's previous curiosity was finally satisfied: it turned out that the assassin who assassinated Li Mu was like this.

Jing Ke is not tall, after all, he is a doctor of the country, his face is very white and clean, and he has a beard, but not much. Only those two raised eyebrows had some murderous aura, and when they stared at it, the murderous intent was pressing, and some courtiers were shocked by his eyes, and the sound of 'assassin, assassin' continued.

In the hearts of later generations, assassins were heroes and heroes, but in the pre-Qin and even post-Qin periods, assassins were mostly considered villains. Taishi Gong set up a biography for him, not so much to approve of his actions, but to warn Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: If the soldiers will be angry, the corpses of the two will be ambushed, the blood will be shed for five steps, and the world will be vegetarian.

Hearing the word 'assassin', Jing Ke's chest was raised higher, but the servants behind him trembled more and more. When he walked to the front, there was a 'poof', and the wooden letter in his hand was not held, and he immediately fell to the ground, but fortunately, the wooden letter was covered, and Li Mu's head did not roll out.

The servant was rude in front of the king, and Zhao Zheng, who was smiling, was a little displeased, and the ministers in the court also disdained a few times. Jing Ke smiled and said, "This barbarian contempt has never tasted the Son of Heaven, so he is terrified. May the king take it lightly and make the envoy come forward. ”

When Jing Ke confessed his guilt, the servant had already picked up the wooden letter. Jing Ke's explanation made Zhao Zheng smile, but his smile then retracted, and he said loudly: "In the past five years, the widow has not eaten and slept well, do you know why?" ”

"Great Qin attacked Zhao, and several were defeated by Li Mu." Jing Ke is upright and calm.

Jing Ke's answer was very satisfying to Zhao Zheng. He said again: "If you kill Li Mu, what reward do you want?" ”

"Kill the enemy for Qin, don't ask for a reward." Jing Ke said loudly.

"Big fallacy!" Zhao Zheng's voice suddenly became higher. The destruction of Zhao is imminent, and the decisive battle with the Three Kingdoms may be next month, and he wants to reward Jing Ke and set an example for the people of the world. "Daqin rules the world by law, meritorious service will be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished. If you don't reward the widow, it's amazing! ”

Zhao Zheng's majestic voice buzzed and echoed in the court, and the ministers all held their breath, wondering what it meant to be 'a surprise reward'. At this time, a group of temple people had hurried up to the temple, some of them holding the brochure, some holding the seal deed.

"Decree of the Widow." Zhao Zheng waved his sleeves, with pride in his voice.

"The king's decree: Zhao general Li Mu, kill the general Meng Wu, behead more than 200,000 Qin soldiers, assassinate Li Mu, make him a marquis, reward 10,000 gold, and eat 10,000 households." Zhao Gao read aloud. In addition to Jing Ke's reward, there is also a promise to Wei Yuanjun. "Thinking that Jing Ke is a Wei minister, the widow reverts to the name of Wei Yuanjun, called Wei Yuanjun, sealed in Puyang, and continues to worship ......"

The assassination of Li Mufeng and the marquis had long been expected, but what they didn't expect was that the king would restore Wei Yuanjun's title and seal him in Puyang. Puyang is the capital of the country, with more than 40,000 households, which is the food of the four marquis.

"Thank you, the king." Wei Yuanjun was already in the palace, and when he heard Zhao Gao announce the royal order, he fell to the ground in excitement and worshipped.

The ministers exchanged heads and ears, and there were many discussions, Wei Yuanjun fell to the ground and was defeated, Yan Prince Dan wanted to speak but didn't dare to speak, Zhao Zheng was very satisfied with the effect of his reward, and this was what he wanted. However, Jing Ke, who was more than ten steps away in front of him, didn't have the slightest smile on his face for some reason. After waving his sleeves, the court was quiet, and Zhao Zheng said: "Jing Qing is not happy about the reward of widows? ”

"I don't dare." Jing Ke replied loudly, "Since the minister has killed Li Mu, he also asked the king to test his head in person to prove the bravery of the minister." ”

According to the law of Great Qin, after beheading, it is necessary to inspect it, Zhao Zheng smiled and said, "It should be so." Take the head of Patriarch Li. ”

The head was on the servant, Jing Ke turned around and took the wooden letter, and then walked towards Zhao Zheng's throne with both hands. When Muhan went to the palace, Lang Zhong had already inspected it, but Zhao Gao, who was beside Zhao Zheng, was always a little uneasy. When he was about to step forward to take the wooden letter, Jing Ke was ten steps closer to the throne, he opened the wooden letter, took out his head and held it high, and said, "Please inspect the king, and ask the doctors to investigate." ”

Li Mu had been dead for several months, and the mirage and ice kept the head level incorruptible, and Zhao Zheng looked at it and found that the head level was actually smiling.
